00:01:27,127 --> 00:01:29,963
1300 people who have died in

32
00:01:29,963 --> 00:01:31,832

00:01:31,832 --> 00:01:32,532

34
00:01:32,532 --> 00:01:34,601
missing. Can we please have a

35
00:01:34,601 --> 00:01:35,235

proclamation tonight which I'm

39
00:01:51,180 --> 00:01:51,718
going to read now. And this is

40
00:01:51,718 --> 00:01:52,986
a proclamation regarding the

41
00:01:52,986 --> 00:01:55,386
25th anniversary of SEPTEMBER.

42
00:01:56,356 --> 00:01:57,900
11th Patriot Day and National

43
00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:00,900
Day of service and remembrance

44
00:02:00,727 --> 00:02:01,395
in the city of Hercules.

45
00:02:01,395 --> 00:02:03,395
Whereas SEPTEMBER 11th 2026

46
00:02:04,697 --> 00:02:05,399
marks a quarter century after

47
00:02:05,399 --> 00:02:07,100
the SEPTEMBER 11th terrorist

48
00:02:07,100 --> 00:02:08,668
attacks on the World Trade

49
00:02:08,668 --> 00:02:11,680
Center. Pentagon and flight 93

50
00:02:11,270 --> 00:02:11,972
that targeted innocent

51
00:02:11,972 --> 00:02:14,410
Americans and claimed nearly

52
00:02:14,410 --> 00:02:14,942
3,000 lives that day as

53
00:02:14,942 --> 00:02:16,309
Americans watched for

54
00:02:16,309 --> 00:02:16,944
commercial jetliners.

55
00:02:16,944 --> 00:02:19,344
Converted into weapons of

56
00:02:20,981 --> 00:02:22,583
terror. And whereas each year

57
00:02:22,583 --> 00:02:23,650
the nation commemorates the

58
00:02:23,650 --> 00:02:25,850
somber anniversary as

59
00:02:25,850 --> 00:02:27,688
commitment to never forget the

60
00:02:27,688 --> 00:02:28,555
patriotism and enduring

61
00:02:28,555 --> 00:02:29,256
resilience that emerged in

62
00:02:29,256 --> 00:02:30,691
remembrance of all those who

63
00:02:30,691 --> 00:02:34,940
perished that day. And in the

64
00:02:34,940 --> 00:02:34,827
aftermath that followed and

65
00:02:34,827 --> 00:02:37,227
Anders, the selfless bravery

66
00:02:37,498 --> 00:02:38,332
of first responders and

67
00:02:38,332 --> 00:02:38,999
individuals, the sacrifice

68
00:02:38,999 --> 00:02:40,768
their lives answering their

69
00:02:40,768 --> 00:02:42,803
call to service or as the

70
00:02:42,803 --> 00:02:45,720
memories of SEPTEMBER. 11th

71
00:02:45,720 --> 00:02:46,707
MAY still feel close to those

72
00:02:46,707 --> 00:02:47,374
adults who witnessed the

73
00:02:47,374 --> 00:02:49,774
unimaginable unfold and are

74
00:02:49,810 --> 00:02:51,578
now parents, grandparents,

75
00:02:51,578 --> 00:02:53,578
veterans, teachers, first

76
00:02:53,847 --> 00:02:54,848
responders are community

77
00:02:54,848 --> 00:02:57,248
leaders, children and young

78
00:02:57,317 --> 00:02:58,419
adults board after 2001 MAY

79
00:02:58,419 --> 00:03:00,521
know the date but were too

80
00:03:00,521 --> 00:03:01,555
young to know its significance

81
00:03:01,555 --> 00:03:04,555
in the enduring legacy of

82
00:03:04,558 --> 00:03:06,594
compassion and service in this

83
00:03:06,594 --> 00:03:09,329
nation. And whereas the city

84
00:03:09,329 --> 00:03:10,564
of Hercules along with the

85
00:03:10,564 --> 00:03:11,198
nation solemnly remembers the

86
00:03:11,198 --> 00:03:13,598
individual who lost their

87
00:03:14,602 --> 00:03:15,303
lives. That tragic day and

88
00:03:15,303 --> 00:03:18,339
honors the bravery of all who

89
00:03:18,339 --> 00:03:18,973
responded to the attacks,

90
00:03:18,973 --> 00:03:21,575
their call to service and

91
00:03:21,575 --> 00:03:22,143
recommit to carry the memory

92
00:03:22,143 --> 00:03:24,780
forward so that a new

93
00:03:24,780 --> 00:03:24,945
generation of Americans, we'll

94
00:03:24,945 --> 00:03:27,345
learn about the unimaginable

95
00:03:27,848 --> 00:03:28,548
loss we experienced and the

96
00:03:28,548 --> 00:03:30,851
stories of bravery, unity and

97
00:03:30,851 --> 00:03:32,820
service. And those can can

98
00:03:32,820 --> 00:03:35,220
continue to inspire compassion

99
00:03:35,622 --> 00:03:37,792
as freedom, courage and unity

100
00:03:37,792 --> 00:03:38,626
should never be taken for

101
00:03:38,626 --> 00:03:41,528
granted now, therefore, be it

102
00:03:41,528 --> 00:03:42,896
proclaimed that I Chris Kelly,

103
00:03:42,896 --> 00:03:44,665
mayor of the city of Hercules

104
00:03:44,665 --> 00:03:46,400
on behalf of the entire city

105
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,800
council do hereby proclaim

the city of Hercules. I call

110
00:03:54,609 --> 00:03:57,609

111
00:03:58,179 --> 00:03:59,130
observe the state by

112
00:03:59,130 --> 00:04:00,848
participating in remembrance

113
00:04:00,848 --> 00:04:02,650
ceremonies or educational

114
00:04:02,650 --> 00:04:03,217
programs, engaging in

115
00:04:03,217 --> 00:04:05,217

observing a moment of silence

117
00:04:06,354 --> 00:04:07,455
to honor the innocent victims

118
00:04:07,455 --> 00:04:08,689
who perished under the

119
00:04:08,689 --> 00:04:11,890
terrorist attack on SEPTEMBER

120
00:04:12,993 --> 00:04:13,661
11. 20 0, 1, 2001. And when

121
00:04:13,661 --> 00:04:15,930
this thereof, I hear and to

122
00:04:15,930 --> 00:04:18,432
set my hand and cause the seal

123
00:04:18,432 --> 00:04:19,330
of the city of Hercules to be

124
00:04:19,330 --> 00:04:22,633
a fixed this 8th day of

125
00:04:23,938 --> 00:04:25,306
SEPTEMBER 2026. So now I just

126
00:04:25,306 --> 00:04:25,940
like to ask of any council

127
00:04:25,940 --> 00:04:28,340
members have any comments

128
00:04:32,847 --> 00:04:34,615
about this. Vice mayor. Member

129
00:04:34,615 --> 00:04:36,450
putting forward this

130
00:04:36,450 --> 00:04:37,118
proclamation recognizing very

131
00:04:37,118 --> 00:04:38,853
somber day in our nation's

132
00:04:38,853 --> 00:04:40,880
history. Truly our world's

133
00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:40,621
history. You know, I really

134
00:04:40,621 --> 00:04:41,756
don't have much of

135
00:04:41,756 --> 00:04:44,756
recollection of that date, but

136
00:04:45,159 --> 00:04:46,393
I do remember being a little

137
00:04:46,393 --> 00:04:49,163
child and watching my dad get

138
00:04:49,163 --> 00:04:49,831
dressed and it wasn't. It was

139
00:04:49,831 --> 00:04:51,966
unlike any other day, just

140
00:04:51,966 --> 00:04:52,600
seeing the distress in his

141
00:04:52,600 --> 00:04:55,136
face. He was on the fire

142
00:04:55,136 --> 00:04:55,803
service of the time and darted

143
00:04:55,803 --> 00:04:58,373
off in a pretty much seeing

144
00:04:58,373 --> 00:04:59,107
over next 2 days. But I just

145
00:04:59,107 --> 00:05:00,507
remember seeing his face as he

146
00:05:00,507 --> 00:05:02,110
was shaving like something was

147
00:05:02,110 --> 00:05:02,844
wrong. And since then, you

148
00:05:02,844 --> 00:05:04,111
know, obviously the nation and

149
00:05:04,111 --> 00:05:05,747
the world has changed

150
00:05:05,747 --> 00:05:08,649
drastically. But I think when

151
00:05:08,649 --> 00:05:11,190
we reflect on that horrific

152
00:05:11,190 --> 00:05:11,986
event. We also recognize the

153
00:05:11,986 --> 00:05:14,222
heroic actions of everyday

154
00:05:14,222 --> 00:05:16,124
people coming together for a

155
00:05:16,124 --> 00:05:18,259
common cause. That's bigger

156
00:05:18,259 --> 00:05:19,293
than themselves. We started

157
00:05:19,293 --> 00:05:19,995
nation unite in ways that to

158
00:05:19,995 --> 00:05:22,764
this day, I don't think we've

159
00:05:22,764 --> 00:05:23,431
seen since then we saw random

160
00:05:23,431 --> 00:05:25,600
strangers helping out each

161
00:05:25,600 --> 00:05:27,636
other across the nation.

162
00:05:27,636 --> 00:05:29,437
They're in during the event

163
00:05:29,437 --> 00:05:30,105
even afterwards. And I think

164
00:05:30,105 --> 00:05:30,805
about people you can see it

165
00:05:30,805 --> 00:05:32,941
was a fire chief of New York

166
00:05:32,941 --> 00:05:34,943
Fire Department at the time

167
00:05:34,943 --> 00:05:36,511
who whereas a lot of leaders

168
00:05:36,511 --> 00:05:37,446
will typically be away from

169
00:05:37,446 --> 00:05:39,180
the emergency and the command

170
00:05:39,180 --> 00:05:41,416
post respectively in the

171
00:05:41,416 --> 00:05:42,830
mission. He was right in the

172
00:05:42,830 --> 00:05:42,751
fight. And unfortunately he

173
00:05:42,751 --> 00:05:45,253
lost his life. But I think

174
00:05:45,253 --> 00:05:47,989
about his story of selfless

175
00:05:47,989 --> 00:05:48,722
service, even to the very I

176
00:05:48,722 --> 00:05:51,493
find inspiring. And if find it

177
00:05:51,493 --> 00:05:52,694
as a means to remember that,

178
00:05:52,694 --> 00:05:53,361
you know, our darkest moments,

179
00:05:53,361 --> 00:05:54,950
we can always come together

180
00:05:54,950 --> 00:05:56,300
and unite. So thank you, MADAM

181
00:05:56,300 --> 00:05:59,300
Mayor. Thank you. Anyone else

182
00:06:00,569 --> 00:06:01,302
on the council. Yes,

183
00:06:01,302 --> 00:06:03,400
Councilmember Grimsley. I just

184
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:04,139
want to kind of piggy back

185
00:06:04,139 --> 00:06:06,700
with the vice mayor said

186
00:06:06,700 --> 00:06:08,976
because what I remember most

187
00:06:08,976 --> 00:06:09,678
profoundly about that day was

188
00:06:09,678 --> 00:06:11,680
what happened after that day.

189
00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:15,280
And that was the way everyday

190
00:06:16,251 --> 00:06:19,251
Americans United. We were. One

191
00:06:20,154 --> 00:06:23,425
country, one people, it was. A

192
00:06:23,425 --> 00:06:24,426
somber, horrific. Horrible

193
00:06:24,426 --> 00:06:27,426
thing that happened in our

194
00:06:27,696 --> 00:06:29,998
country on our soil. And we

195
00:06:29,998 --> 00:06:30,966
all felt it collectively. And

196
00:06:30,966 --> 00:06:32,868
we looked at one another a

197
00:06:32,868 --> 00:06:35,868
little bit differently than we

198
00:06:36,700 --> 00:06:38,173
did the day before. We held

199
00:06:38,173 --> 00:06:41,773
that for quite some time. We

200
00:06:43,445 --> 00:06:44,913
as Americans. But then there

201
00:06:44,913 --> 00:06:47,313
are Americans who found

202
00:06:49,518 --> 00:06:51,518
themselves. Other By 9.11

203
00:06:52,521 --> 00:06:54,921
Weekend were scrutiny for

204
00:06:55,424 --> 00:06:56,580
travel. We can more scrutiny

205
00:06:56,580 --> 00:06:59,580
around who we thought the

206
00:07:00,462 --> 00:07:02,231
terrorists were. And I fear

207
00:07:02,231 --> 00:07:06,735
that we are now in a time very

208
00:07:06,735 --> 00:07:10,138
similar to that. I just want

209
00:07:10,138 --> 00:07:13,842
to remind all of us here and

210
00:07:13,842 --> 00:07:14,509
anyone watching or listening.

211
00:07:14,509 --> 00:07:18,109
That we are one country. We

212
00:07:18,747 --> 00:07:21,650
are one people. We are. We are

213
00:07:21,650 --> 00:07:23,752
all humans who were who live

214
00:07:23,752 --> 00:07:24,653
in this country, who were born

215
00:07:24,653 --> 00:07:27,923
in this country, who work in

216
00:07:27,923 --> 00:07:28,557
this country living. Very

217
00:07:28,557 --> 00:07:31,557
ordinary lies most of the

218
00:07:32,594 --> 00:07:34,329
time. But we're all capable of

219
00:07:34,329 --> 00:07:36,729
extraordinary things. And most

220
00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:37,933
of us, the vast majority us.

221
00:07:37,933 --> 00:07:41,300
We'll use that ability to do

222
00:07:41,300 --> 00:07:43,403
something really positive. Who

223
00:07:45,140 --> 00:07:45,874
do something to better. Our

224
00:07:45,874 --> 00:07:47,409
community to. I just encourage

225
00:07:47,409 --> 00:07:50,713
us all to look around and see

226
00:07:50,713 --> 00:07:52,114
one another again, just as as

227
00:07:52,114 --> 00:07:54,483
for back of a letter term

228
00:07:54,483 --> 00:07:56,351
brothers and sisters. Thank

229
00:07:56,351 --> 00:07:59,351
you, MADAM Mayor, thank you.

230
00:08:01,357 --> 00:08:02,158
Anyone else? Councilmember

231
00:08:02,158 --> 00:08:02,791
Bailey, thank you, MADAM For

232
00:08:02,791 --> 00:08:03,492
the proclamation for the

233
00:08:03,492 --> 00:08:04,993
comments by the vice mayor as

234
00:08:04,993 --> 00:08:07,363
well as from customer

235
00:08:07,363 --> 00:08:08,497
Grimsley. I was I do or the

236
00:08:08,497 --> 00:08:09,431
day I was living in Florida.

237
00:08:09,431 --> 00:08:10,566
We were in flight school. It

238
00:08:10,566 --> 00:08:12,966
was groundswell the morning.

239
00:08:14,436 --> 00:08:15,670
So we. Because its lights

240
00:08:15,670 --> 00:08:16,338
cooler discussing what

241
00:08:16,338 --> 00:08:18,640
happened the first time the

242
00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:19,341
aircraft, the the towers. And

243
00:08:19,341 --> 00:08:20,275
try to figure out, you know,

244
00:08:20,275 --> 00:08:22,578
from our perspective, a

245
00:08:22,578 --> 00:08:23,279
student pilot, what could have

246
00:08:23,279 --> 00:08:23,946
gone wrong until we actually

247
00:08:23,946 --> 00:08:25,648
watched live tv. The second

248
00:08:25,648 --> 00:08:26,315
one just because the time zone

249
00:08:26,315 --> 00:08:28,715
difference which we didn't

250
00:08:28,985 --> 00:08:29,551
knew something was wrong.

251
00:08:29,551 --> 00:08:30,886
remember, just to the

252
00:08:30,886 --> 00:08:33,422
confusion in that, how could

253
00:08:33,422 --> 00:08:35,558
this happen? Ms of that. And I

254
00:08:35,558 --> 00:08:36,291
think that was mentioned here

255
00:08:36,291 --> 00:08:40,491
is how it brought unity in our

256
00:08:40,596 --> 00:08:41,497
country. And it's unfortunate

257
00:08:41,497 --> 00:08:42,165
think was very fortunate. We

258
00:08:42,165 --> 00:08:45,735
had that at the time we who

259
00:08:45,735 --> 00:08:46,401
are leadership was. We're a

260
00:08:46,401 --> 00:08:49,401
place today where we don't

261
00:08:49,538 --> 00:08:50,272
have that unity. And and and

262
00:08:50,272 --> 00:08:50,973
it's unfortunate that it takes

263
00:08:50,973 --> 00:08:51,641
a tragedy, sometimes bring us

264
00:08:51,641 --> 00:08:52,375
together. I think the thing

265
00:08:52,375 --> 00:08:54,100
that we can learn from that as

266
00:08:54,100 --> 00:08:55,244
we go forward is, of course,

267
00:08:55,244 --> 00:08:55,911
you know, we want to be safe

268
00:08:55,911 --> 00:08:56,578
but also to work together.

269
00:08:56,578 --> 00:08:58,978
We're stronger together. We

270
00:08:59,948 --> 00:09:00,616
saw that a 9.11 We watched on

271
00:09:00,616 --> 00:09:04,200
many of our fire for those

272
00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:04,687
firefighters from New York

273
00:09:04,687 --> 00:09:05,387
going to secretary put the

274
00:09:05,387 --> 00:09:08,987
first time put the fires that

275
00:09:09,910 --> 00:09:09,825
were midway at and then watch

276
00:09:09,825 --> 00:09:10,493
building collapse. And then to

277
00:09:10,493 --> 00:09:12,261
later watch the same exact

278
00:09:12,261 --> 00:09:14,297
thing happened with the second

279
00:09:14,297 --> 00:09:15,131
building. So there's lots of

280
00:09:15,131 --> 00:09:15,865
service that we can do to each

281
00:09:15,865 --> 00:09:18,330
other make. The point thing is

282
00:09:18,330 --> 00:09:19,680
for us to work together to try

283
00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:19,768
and find things that we have

284
00:09:19,768 --> 00:09:21,804
in common Many more of those

285
00:09:21,804 --> 00:09:22,505
things. We have a part and I

286
00:09:22,505 --> 00:09:23,172
think that's a lesson that I

287
00:09:23,172 --> 00:09:24,440
learned from from Monday's.

288
00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:27,440
Thank you Thank you. Council

289
00:09:28,444 --> 00:09:29,378
member Butler. Thank you,

290
00:09:29,378 --> 00:09:31,547
MADAM Mayor, thank you for

291
00:09:31,547 --> 00:09:32,782
putting commission and also

292
00:09:32,782 --> 00:09:35,782
the moment's silence for the

293
00:09:35,918 --> 00:09:38,918
people that last night, Nepal

294
00:09:39,220 --> 00:09:39,755
simply for me personally, I

295
00:09:39,755 --> 00:09:43,260
was a freeze out of the book I

296
00:09:43,260 --> 00:09:44,994
let it happen in this country.

297
00:09:44,994 --> 00:09:46,563
That reminds me of this

298
00:09:46,563 --> 00:09:48,898
country. You know, it's more

299
00:09:48,898 --> 00:09:49,599
than ever Lennon is. They

300
00:09:49,599 --> 00:09:52,268
need. And it's a council

301
00:09:52,268 --> 00:09:54,837
member of city of Hercules.

302
00:09:54,837 --> 00:09:55,505
I'm a proud of the speed of

303
00:09:55,505 --> 00:09:56,139
the unity and service that

304
00:09:56,139 --> 00:09:58,539
defines please. And this

305
00:09:59,609 --> 00:10:00,777
nation together. And I just

306
00:10:00,777 --> 00:10:03,777
wanted to thank you again,

307
00:10:04,981 --> 00:10:07,381
part of although there's

308
00:10:08,951 --> 00:10:11,951
hospice winners and all they

309
00:10:13,156 --> 00:10:15,458
do that. Ordinary people who

310
00:10:15,458 --> 00:10:16,159
was wing there to support the

311
00:10:16,159 --> 00:10:16,759
rest flying p adding. I think

312
00:10:16,759 --> 00:10:18,227
that is a speed of this

313
00:10:18,227 --> 00:10:20,229
country. I think I want to

314
00:10:20,229 --> 00:10:21,290
carry that and that even raise

315
00:10:21,290 --> 00:10:24,290
power and the generation to

316
00:10:24,433 --> 00:10:25,501
come. Thank Thank you. And I

317
00:10:25,501 --> 00:10:27,203
want to thank all the council

318
00:10:27,203 --> 00:10:27,904
for your comments. As I've

319
00:10:27,904 --> 00:10:30,106
said in years past, I was in

320
00:10:30,106 --> 00:10:33,909
New York City on 9.11 I was in

321
00:10:33,909 --> 00:10:34,577
the Upper West Side and I

322
00:10:34,577 --> 00:10:36,379
recall that after the plane

323
00:10:36,379 --> 00:10:37,112
hit the towers, my husband and

324
00:10:37,112 --> 00:10:37,814
I went out into the street and

325
00:10:37,814 --> 00:10:40,950
we recall people all that day

326
00:10:40,950 --> 00:10:43,950
and that evening streaming up,

327
00:10:44,954 --> 00:10:45,655
wanting food, wanting shelter

328
00:10:45,655 --> 00:10:49,855
having no way to get home. It

329
00:10:49,959 --> 00:10:51,428
was very, very moving and

330
00:10:51,428 --> 00:10:52,128
absolutely surreal. And it was

331
00:10:52,128 --> 00:10:54,640
a day really of unity. And I

332
00:10:54,640 --> 00:10:57,640
really prize that. So thank

333
00:10:57,133 --> 00:10:58,100
you, everyone very much. So

334
00:10:58,100 --> 00:11:00,971
now we're going to move on.

335
00:11:00,971 --> 00:11:01,972
And tonight we have a

336
00:11:01,972 --> 00:11:03,907
presentation from the Family

337
00:11:03,907 --> 00:11:04,541
Justice Center and we have our

338
00:11:04,541 --> 00:11:06,541
executive director, Besa,

339
00:11:09,246 --> 00:11:12,246
French Air. Along with Natalie

340
00:11:13,283 --> 00:11:13,917
will last. The regional

341
00:11:13,917 --> 00:11:15,917
administrative director.

342
00:11:18,588 --> 00:11:19,322
Welcome director French. The

343
00:11:19,322 --> 00:11:21,322
evening. MADAM Mayor,

344
00:11:21,458 --> 00:11:23,458
Councilmembers and community

345
00:11:23,927 --> 00:11:24,593
members. My name is Besa,

346
00:11:24,593 --> 00:11:25,962
French and on the executive

347
00:11:25,962 --> 00:11:28,498
director of the Family Justice

348
00:11:28,498 --> 00:11:29,231
Center. And I have with me

349
00:11:29,231 --> 00:11:33,431
Natalie, U.S. And we have some

350
00:11:42,846 --> 00:11:43,479
slides. Thank you. Us. And the

351
00:11:43,479 --> 00:11:45,682
executive director of the

352
00:11:45,682 --> 00:11:46,616
Family Justice Center because

353
00:11:46,616 --> 00:11:47,284
I've been there as the

354
00:11:47,284 --> 00:11:49,684
executive director for the

355
00:11:51,221 --> 00:11:51,922
last 6 months. However, I'm

356
00:11:51,922 --> 00:11:55,522
not new to the Family Justice

357
00:11:55,659 --> 00:11:57,494
Center. I spent 28 years with

358
00:11:57,494 --> 00:11:59,494
the Richmond Police

359
00:12:00,397 --> 00:12:01,980
Department. The last 6 as the

360
00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:04,698
chief of police and I retired

361
00:12:04,735 --> 00:12:06,303
in JANUARY. And it was my time

362
00:12:06,303 --> 00:12:08,305
at the police department when

363
00:12:08,305 --> 00:12:09,773
we actually started the Family

364
00:12:09,773 --> 00:12:10,473
Justice Center and Contra

365
00:12:10,473 --> 00:12:14,730
Costa County and the city of

366
00:12:14,778 --> 00:12:18,378
Richmond. And for me back then

367
00:12:20,617 --> 00:12:21,251
I was a sergeant and I realize

368
00:12:21,251 --> 00:12:24,251
when we are starting the

369
00:12:24,287 --> 00:12:25,456
family Justice Center that

370
00:12:25,456 --> 00:12:27,658
this was the missing key that

371
00:12:27,658 --> 00:12:28,292
I always experienced during my

372
00:12:28,292 --> 00:12:30,600
career when responding to

373
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,460
domestic violence calls that

374
00:12:34,398 --> 00:12:37,100
we didn't have more resources

375
00:12:37,100 --> 00:12:37,668
for the victim. So back we're

376
00:12:37,668 --> 00:12:40,668
talking 28 years ago. So it

377
00:12:41,338 --> 00:12:44,241
was a while ago. I would I can

378
00:12:44,241 --> 00:12:44,975
remember going to calls taking

379
00:12:44,975 --> 00:12:46,110
the report, but feeling like I

380
00:12:46,110 --> 00:12:49,110
wanted to do something more

381
00:12:49,112 --> 00:12:51,448
for the just leaving her there

382
00:12:51,448 --> 00:12:55,480
and to find resources her or

383
00:12:57,688 --> 00:12:58,322
himself. When we started the

384
00:12:58,322 --> 00:12:59,560
Family Justice Center and

385
00:12:59,560 --> 00:13:01,525
explain what that is. And just

386
00:13:01,525 --> 00:13:05,129
one man moment it was the it

387
00:13:05,129 --> 00:13:07,264
was the key for me. It was

388
00:13:07,264 --> 00:13:09,664
more than just providing

389
00:13:10,835 --> 00:13:12,136
resources for victims. But I

390
00:13:12,136 --> 00:13:13,303
saw how the Family Justice

391
00:13:13,303 --> 00:13:15,639
Center and providing resources

392
00:13:15,639 --> 00:13:17,808
for victims can ultimately

393
00:13:17,808 --> 00:13:19,910
provide more safety for our

394
00:13:19,910 --> 00:13:20,978
communities I thought back

395
00:13:20,978 --> 00:13:22,946
then was if we can give

396
00:13:22,946 --> 00:13:25,346
resources to victims of

397
00:13:25,783 --> 00:13:26,484
interpersonal violence and

398
00:13:26,484 --> 00:13:28,452
their families, then the kids

399
00:13:28,452 --> 00:13:29,787
are going to get the support

400
00:13:29,787 --> 00:13:30,487
they need. Victims are going

401
00:13:30,487 --> 00:13:34,870
to get the support they need.

402
00:13:35,526 --> 00:13:37,428
And in turn. That is going to.

403
00:13:37,428 --> 00:13:39,597
Have an effect on our

404
00:13:39,597 --> 00:13:40,430
community violence. If

405
00:13:40,430 --> 00:13:41,980
providing resources and

406
00:13:41,980 --> 00:13:43,498
therapy and everything that

407
00:13:43,734 --> 00:13:45,736
the survivors need and that's

408
00:13:45,736 --> 00:13:47,338
ultimately what happened. If I

409
00:13:47,338 --> 00:13:48,372
mean, urine Hercules pretty

410
00:13:48,372 --> 00:13:50,975
close to Richmond and, you

411
00:13:50,975 --> 00:13:52,209
know, over the last 10 plus

412
00:13:52,209 --> 00:13:54,609
years, we've made a

413
00:13:55,279 --> 00:13:56,647
significant impact on

414
00:13:56,647 --> 00:13:57,514
community violence enrichment

415
00:13:57,514 --> 00:13:58,516
and the Family Justice Center

416
00:13:58,516 --> 00:14:01,516
was one of the initiatives

417
00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:09,727
that contributed to that. The

418
00:14:09,727 --> 00:14:12,727
Family Justice Center has a

419
00:14:12,864 --> 00:14:13,564
backbone agency for victims of

420
00:14:13,564 --> 00:14:15,964
interpersonal violence. So we

421
00:14:16,100 --> 00:14:18,500
serve victims of domestic

422
00:14:19,637 --> 00:14:20,371
violence, sexual assault,

423
00:14:20,371 --> 00:14:22,771
human trafficking, elder abuse

424
00:14:23,174 --> 00:14:24,575
and child abuse. So what does

425
00:14:24,575 --> 00:14:26,444
that mean? One of victim,

426
00:14:26,444 --> 00:14:28,246
victim when someone is

427
00:14:28,246 --> 00:14:30,181
victimized, they come to us.

428
00:14:30,181 --> 00:14:33,781
And even we have staff. That

429
00:14:33,885 --> 00:14:37,485
here's their story and we can

430
00:14:37,488 --> 00:14:38,890
that that victim to services.

431
00:14:38,890 --> 00:14:41,225
And so while we don't have we

432
00:14:41,225 --> 00:14:44,225
don't provide all the services

433
00:14:44,262 --> 00:14:45,130
ourselves. We focus on the

434
00:14:45,130 --> 00:14:48,130
sport areas and our staff

435
00:14:48,231 --> 00:14:51,231
along with our partners. Focus

436
00:14:52,904 --> 00:14:55,607
on these areas. To provide the

437
00:14:55,607 --> 00:14:56,241
resources and that that victim

438
00:14:56,241 --> 00:14:59,241
needs to get through the

439
00:15:00,110 --> 00:15:00,978
situation. So as you see

440
00:15:00,978 --> 00:15:02,978
health community wealth,

441
00:15:05,516 --> 00:15:07,585
education and training. And so

442
00:15:07,585 --> 00:15:09,187
we wrap ourselves around that

443
00:15:09,187 --> 00:15:10,421
victim. The first thing, of

444
00:15:10,421 --> 00:15:11,955
course, is making sure that

445
00:15:11,955 --> 00:15:13,725
they're safe in their space in

446
00:15:13,725 --> 00:15:14,325
their home or wherever it

447
00:15:14,325 --> 00:15:17,325
might be. We do safety

448
00:15:19,297 --> 00:15:20,331
planning. And we focus on

449
00:15:20,331 --> 00:15:22,400
crisis support. But we stay

450
00:15:22,400 --> 00:15:26,000
with the victim long term. We

451
00:15:28,306 --> 00:15:29,700
want to make sure that that

452
00:15:29,700 --> 00:15:31,242
we're meeting their needs so

453
00:15:31,242 --> 00:15:34,312
that they can continue. On a

454
00:15:34,312 --> 00:15:37,912
on a path to healing. Next

455
00:15:41,186 --> 00:15:43,586
slide. Please. So partnerships

456
00:15:43,654 --> 00:15:45,790
are the way the Family Justice

457
00:15:45,790 --> 00:15:47,759
Center works. As I said, we

458
00:15:47,759 --> 00:15:48,459
have staff that we have over

459
00:15:48,459 --> 00:15:49,928
80 different partners that we

460
00:15:49,928 --> 00:15:50,529
work with to provide that

461
00:15:50,529 --> 00:15:52,897
safety net and support

462
00:15:52,897 --> 00:15:55,897
network. We are public and

463
00:15:59,705 --> 00:16:00,605
private. Part. We have public

464
00:16:00,605 --> 00:16:01,239
and private partnership. So we

465
00:16:01,239 --> 00:16:02,700
work with law enforcement

466
00:16:02,700 --> 00:16:03,708
agencies. We work with other

467
00:16:03,708 --> 00:16:04,409
nonprofits. We work with

468
00:16:04,409 --> 00:16:06,409
governmental agencies, county

469
00:16:08,446 --> 00:16:11,490
agencies. And through all of

470
00:16:11,490 --> 00:16:11,750
our partnerships, that's how

471
00:16:11,750 --> 00:16:14,750
we provide all the resources

472
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:16,321
that a person might need. So

473
00:16:16,321 --> 00:16:18,957
before people ask why we did a

474
00:16:18,957 --> 00:16:20,258
family Justice center because

475
00:16:20,258 --> 00:16:22,293
as you know, all these all

476
00:16:22,293 --> 00:16:22,894
these networks are in place.

477
00:16:22,894 --> 00:16:25,894
So why a family Justice

478
00:16:26,898 --> 00:16:29,868
center? And what we heard from

479
00:16:29,868 --> 00:16:30,902
victims was that the system

480
00:16:30,902 --> 00:16:31,603
was fragmented. So if the

481
00:16:31,603 --> 00:16:34,239
person is victimized here in

482
00:16:34,239 --> 00:16:34,973
the city of Hercules before we

483
00:16:34,973 --> 00:16:37,109
had the family Justice Center,

484
00:16:37,109 --> 00:16:38,844
they would have to go to

485
00:16:38,844 --> 00:16:41,244
Concord to get advocacy

486
00:16:42,748 --> 00:16:43,482
services from advocacy agency.

487
00:16:43,482 --> 00:16:46,218
They'll have to go to Martinez

488
00:16:46,218 --> 00:16:47,319
to get a restraining order.

489
00:16:47,319 --> 00:16:50,220
They just have to go to so

490
00:16:50,220 --> 00:16:50,756
many different parts of the

491
00:16:50,756 --> 00:16:52,591
county to receive all services

492
00:16:52,591 --> 00:16:55,494
that they need now with the

493
00:16:55,494 --> 00:16:56,795
Family Justice Center, they

494
00:16:56,795 --> 00:16:58,831
can call us or walk through

495
00:16:58,831 --> 00:16:59,431
our doors and receive all of

496
00:16:59,431 --> 00:17:01,166
those services and one

497
00:17:01,166 --> 00:17:04,166
location. Turn it over to

498
00:17:06,104 --> 00:17:08,307
Natalie. Thank you. Good

499
00:17:08,307 --> 00:17:11,307
evening. Mature than she is.

500
00:17:12,478 --> 00:17:13,478
We go to the next So a lot of

501
00:17:13,478 --> 00:17:14,680
times people ask, well, what

502
00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:15,380
kind of services clients

503
00:17:15,380 --> 00:17:18,980
looking for when they come in

504
00:17:19,251 --> 00:17:20,180
our doors? It's ver I it kind

505
00:17:20,180 --> 00:17:21,254
of varies based on what the

506
00:17:21,254 --> 00:17:23,989
needs are of the client and

507
00:17:23,989 --> 00:17:24,857
every client need something

508
00:17:24,857 --> 00:17:27,257
different. But we primarily

509
00:17:27,492 --> 00:17:29,461
have resources focused on

510
00:17:29,461 --> 00:17:31,363
mental health, our children in

511
00:17:31,363 --> 00:17:33,532
use and creating community for

512
00:17:33,532 --> 00:17:36,501
adult survivors as well. And

513
00:17:36,501 --> 00:17:37,736
so that's project connect, for

514
00:17:37,736 --> 00:17:39,772
example, are is a survivor

515
00:17:39,772 --> 00:17:41,600
lead monthly group. It's not a

516
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,800
support group. It's really

517
00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:44,750
more of a community circle of

518
00:17:44,750 --> 00:17:46,750
survivors creating those

519
00:17:47,813 --> 00:17:49,982
bonds, which are sometimes

520
00:17:49,982 --> 00:17:50,616
broken when you are in an

521
00:17:50,616 --> 00:17:51,283
abusive relationship and

522
00:17:51,283 --> 00:17:53,283
rebuilding those strengths

523
00:17:53,751 --> 00:17:55,854
that you have with community.

524
00:17:55,854 --> 00:17:57,656
We also provide mental health

525
00:17:57,656 --> 00:18:00,656
services for both children and

526
00:18:00,893 --> 00:18:03,696
adults. It's totally free. It

527
00:18:03,696 --> 00:18:04,496
does not built to insurance.

528
00:18:04,496 --> 00:18:06,165
So it doesn't matter if

529
00:18:06,165 --> 00:18:09,165
somebody has insurance or not,

530
00:18:09,502 --> 00:18:10,469
they can utilize it. So mind

531
00:18:10,469 --> 00:18:12,171
blowing right. And then last

532
00:18:12,171 --> 00:18:14,600
but not least. We also have

533
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,241
programs for children and

534
00:18:16,241 --> 00:18:17,710
youth. Our biggest one is

535
00:18:17,710 --> 00:18:19,712
actually coming up at end of

536
00:18:19,712 --> 00:18:21,847
the We have a weekend getaway

537
00:18:21,847 --> 00:18:24,247
camp children ages 8 to 12.

538
00:18:25,484 --> 00:18:27,486
Get to go to. We have about 75

539
00:18:27,486 --> 00:18:29,822
kids signed up for that this

540
00:18:29,822 --> 00:18:31,624
year with a whole host of

541
00:18:31,624 --> 00:18:32,324
adult volunteers. So those are

542
00:18:32,324 --> 00:18:33,426
just some of the examples of

543
00:18:33,426 --> 00:18:37,260
some of the services that we

544
00:18:39,265 --> 00:18:41,133
offer like these. Folks that

545
00:18:41,133 --> 00:18:41,833
are living in Hercules that

546
00:18:41,833 --> 00:18:43,636
MAY be working. Hercules has

547
00:18:43,636 --> 00:18:45,371
some kind of connection to

548
00:18:45,371 --> 00:18:46,380
Hercules if you ever needed

549
00:18:46,380 --> 00:18:47,974
assistance or, you know,

550
00:18:47,974 --> 00:18:49,108
somebody that needed

551
00:18:49,108 --> 00:18:51,430
assistance, we would want them

552
00:18:51,430 --> 00:18:53,579
to go to the West Center,

553
00:18:53,579 --> 00:18:55,130
which is located in Richmond.

554
00:18:55,130 --> 00:18:56,682
That's the closest center. We

555
00:18:56,682 --> 00:18:57,816
also have centers located in

556
00:18:57,816 --> 00:19:00,216
Concord, in Antioch, in

557
00:19:01,320 --> 00:19:02,210
Danville, and in Fairfield

558
00:19:02,210 --> 00:19:03,489
because we know a lot of our

559
00:19:03,489 --> 00:19:05,825
clients travel throughout the

560
00:19:05,825 --> 00:19:06,559
different counties. But the

561
00:19:06,559 --> 00:19:08,461
Richmond office is the closest

562
00:19:08,461 --> 00:19:09,161
location that we have 4 for

563
00:19:09,161 --> 00:19:11,561
community members that might

564
00:19:12,131 --> 00:19:14,531
need their services. Next

565
00:19:16,202 --> 00:19:17,169
slide. Thank you. So these are

566
00:19:17,169 --> 00:19:19,172
some data points that I

567
00:19:19,172 --> 00:19:19,772
thought might be interesting

568
00:19:19,772 --> 00:19:20,306
for council members for

569
00:19:20,306 --> 00:19:20,973
community to get an

570
00:19:20,973 --> 00:19:23,373
understanding of what we're

571
00:19:25,678 --> 00:19:26,379
looking at. So at least in for

572
00:19:26,379 --> 00:19:29,379
about the last what, 7 years

573
00:19:29,915 --> 00:19:32,915
or so 6 years we've supported

574
00:19:33,186 --> 00:19:34,520
about 241 survivors located in

575
00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,920
Hercules our West Center,

576
00:19:37,356 --> 00:19:38,240
which again, would be the

577
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:40,424
center that survivors were

578
00:19:41,427 --> 00:19:42,929
probably connect with most

579
00:19:42,929 --> 00:19:45,329
recently in 2025. We served

580
00:19:45,531 --> 00:19:46,431
almost 1000 survivors and then

581
00:19:46,431 --> 00:19:49,369
the Family Justice Center is a

582
00:19:49,369 --> 00:19:51,571
whole last year. Service a

583
00:19:51,571 --> 00:19:53,971
little over 5800 survivors. We

584
00:19:55,730 --> 00:19:57,109
can go the next slide. And to

585
00:19:57,109 --> 00:19:59,212
give you a sense of people

586
00:19:59,212 --> 00:20:00,790
kind of are always curious

587
00:20:00,790 --> 00:20:00,780
about types of violence are

588
00:20:00,780 --> 00:20:01,981
you seeing coming in through

589
00:20:01,981 --> 00:20:04,381
the doors people needing

590
00:20:05,885 --> 00:20:07,921
support of services for so I

591
00:20:07,921 --> 00:20:08,821
would say predominantly 76% of

592
00:20:08,821 --> 00:20:11,221
clients are needing support

593
00:20:11,791 --> 00:20:12,692
with some type of domestic or

594
00:20:12,692 --> 00:20:13,359
family violence followed by

595
00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:16,296
sexual assault. And you can

596
00:20:16,296 --> 00:20:17,430
kind of go down the list.

597
00:20:17,430 --> 00:20:19,232
Also, race, ethnicity make up

598
00:20:19,232 --> 00:20:21,632
about 50% of our clients

599
00:20:22,335 --> 00:20:25,335
identify as Latinx and the

600
00:20:25,605 --> 00:20:26,306
next category is white. About

601
00:20:26,306 --> 00:20:28,306
20% African-American, 15, so

602
00:20:32,211 --> 00:20:34,447
on and so on. Next slide. And

603
00:20:34,447 --> 00:20:37,447
this is an interesting slide

604
00:20:38,218 --> 00:20:39,352
Gives a sense of for Hercules

605
00:20:39,352 --> 00:20:42,622
pd. This is the Department of

606
00:20:42,622 --> 00:20:43,256
Justice Web site, every law

607
00:20:43,256 --> 00:20:43,857
enforcement agency in the

608
00:20:43,857 --> 00:20:45,458
state of California is

609
00:20:45,458 --> 00:20:49,580
required to send all of the

610
00:20:49,362 --> 00:20:50,296
crimes, does it to the doj.

611
00:20:50,296 --> 00:20:50,964
And so this can be found on

612
00:20:50,964 --> 00:20:53,964
their website and the total

613
00:20:55,302 --> 00:20:58,302
number of calls for domestic

614
00:20:58,805 --> 00:21:00,607
violence. We're about 24 in

615
00:21:00,607 --> 00:21:01,274
2025. The year before was

616
00:21:01,274 --> 00:21:04,274
about 36 in the year before

617
00:21:04,945 --> 00:21:05,579
was about 41. So we have seen

618
00:21:05,579 --> 00:21:06,213
a little bit of a steady

619
00:21:06,213 --> 00:21:09,213
decrease in the number of

620
00:21:09,983 --> 00:21:10,650
calls for Dv. What the reason

621
00:21:10,650 --> 00:21:12,819
for that is there's a whole

622
00:21:12,819 --> 00:21:15,210
host of them. I can't point to

623
00:21:15,210 --> 00:21:15,955
one specifically. My hope is

624
00:21:15,955 --> 00:21:16,590
that some of the impact is

625
00:21:16,590 --> 00:21:18,859
because we have a family

626
00:21:18,859 --> 00:21:20,930
justice center in west and

627
00:21:20,930 --> 00:21:20,760
that that's contributing to

628
00:21:20,760 --> 00:21:22,195
that. But I can't pinpoint

629
00:21:22,195 --> 00:21:24,970
specifically and say that's

630
00:21:24,970 --> 00:21:26,233
the reason why the numbers are

631
00:21:26,233 --> 00:21:26,933
going down. I'm sure it also

632
00:21:26,933 --> 00:21:28,101
has something to do with some

633
00:21:28,101 --> 00:21:28,835
of the good work that the law

634
00:21:28,835 --> 00:21:30,700
enforcement agencies are doing

635
00:21:30,700 --> 00:21:33,670
as well. So good. The next

636
00:21:35,142 --> 00:21:37,430
slide. And this gives an

637
00:21:37,430 --> 00:21:38,178
example. We also work with

638
00:21:38,178 --> 00:21:38,811
elder abuse survivors. So

639
00:21:38,811 --> 00:21:40,847
that's a population that

640
00:21:40,847 --> 00:21:42,749
sometimes gets overlooked. And

641
00:21:42,749 --> 00:21:44,484
so what I would say in in this

642
00:21:44,484 --> 00:21:45,752
important statistic is just to

643
00:21:45,752 --> 00:21:49,352
notice that of the elder abuse

644
00:21:49,857 --> 00:21:51,191
survivors that we work with.

645
00:21:51,191 --> 00:21:53,927
Financial abuse is the highest

646
00:21:53,927 --> 00:21:54,994
type of elder abuse that

647
00:21:54,994 --> 00:21:57,364
they're experiencing. And it's

648
00:21:57,364 --> 00:22:00,364
usually from a family member.

649
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,100
Usually an adult son or

650
00:22:01,100 --> 00:22:03,100
daughter and financial

651
00:22:03,336 --> 00:22:05,736
exploitation is usually the

652
00:22:05,806 --> 00:22:06,440
highest that's impacting them.

653
00:22:06,440 --> 00:22:10,640
And we can go to the next

654
00:22:12,513 --> 00:22:13,414
slide. So I wanted to share

655
00:22:13,414 --> 00:22:14,348
our website and our

656
00:22:14,348 --> 00:22:16,490
information in case any

657
00:22:16,490 --> 00:22:17,851
community members ever need or

658
00:22:17,851 --> 00:22:18,585
services are want to get more

659
00:22:18,585 --> 00:22:20,454
information about the services

660
00:22:20,454 --> 00:22:23,690
that we offer. And I have

661
00:22:23,690 --> 00:22:25,259
homework for everyone. I'm not

662
00:22:25,259 --> 00:22:25,993
going to be able to tell if

663
00:22:25,993 --> 00:22:28,128
you've done it or not, but I'm

664
00:22:28,128 --> 00:22:30,990
going to go on honor system.

665
00:22:30,990 --> 00:22:31,965
You now know about the Family

666
00:22:31,965 --> 00:22:33,300
Justice Center. So you now

667
00:22:33,300 --> 00:22:35,340
have this knowledge that you

668
00:22:35,340 --> 00:22:37,871
can partake into other realms.

669
00:22:37,871 --> 00:22:38,472
So whether it's your work with

670
00:22:38,472 --> 00:22:40,740
family, your community,

671
00:22:40,740 --> 00:22:42,910
whatever that might look like

672
00:22:42,910 --> 00:22:43,777
for you because what we know

673
00:22:43,777 --> 00:22:45,913
is interpersonal violence so

674
00:22:45,913 --> 00:22:47,448
prevalent in our communities.

675
00:22:47,448 --> 00:22:48,148
Unfortunately, is that the

676
00:22:48,148 --> 00:22:49,817
likelihood that somebody you

677
00:22:49,817 --> 00:22:52,817
all connect with us? We're

678
00:22:53,120 --> 00:22:55,256
going to need this service is

679
00:22:55,256 --> 00:22:55,856
pretty high. So I embark on

680
00:22:55,856 --> 00:22:58,157
you to please take this

681
00:22:58,157 --> 00:22:59,727
knowledge with you and don't

682
00:22:59,727 --> 00:23:00,661
just hold it to yourself share

683
00:23:00,661 --> 00:23:04,261
with others. And I think we're

684
00:23:05,132 --> 00:23:05,900
happy to answer any questions.

685
00:23:05,900 --> 00:23:06,567
Thank And just a quick

686
00:23:06,567 --> 00:23:08,340
question. Do you ever hold

687
00:23:08,340 --> 00:23:10,671
open open house where people

688
00:23:10,671 --> 00:23:13,841
can come and see what the

689
00:23:13,841 --> 00:23:15,109
Family Justice Center is like.

690
00:23:15,109 --> 00:23:15,943
Sure. We have a lot of the

691
00:23:15,943 --> 00:23:16,877
fence at the family. Justin

692
00:23:16,877 --> 00:23:19,877
are actually in the West.

693
00:23:20,347 --> 00:23:22,416
We're having a the fall

694
00:23:22,416 --> 00:23:24,318

695
00:23:24,318 --> 00:23:25,190

696
00:23:25,190 --> 00:23:27,254

00:23:33,828 --> 00:23:34,495
we're happy to set up a tour.

700
00:23:34,495 --> 00:23:35,162
Councilmember Grimsley came

701
00:23:35,162 --> 00:23:37,562
toward our West Center

702
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:39,667
recently. Wonderful. Thank

703
00:23:39,667 --> 00:23:42,670
you. So questions here,

704
00:23:42,603 --> 00:23:43,871
Councilmember Grimsley. Thank

705
00:23:43,871 --> 00:23:44,538
you, MADAM Mayor, I just want

706
00:23:44,538 --> 00:23:47,408
to thank you both for being

707
00:23:47,408 --> 00:23:48,342
here and giving this

708
00:23:48,342 --> 00:23:50,144
presentation. Yes, I have a

709
00:23:50,144 --> 00:23:51,379
wonderful tour, a wonderful

710
00:23:51,379 --> 00:23:54,379
opportunity to speak with the

711
00:23:55,516 --> 00:23:56,217
director Lisa French. And

712
00:23:56,217 --> 00:23:57,718
learn more about the Justice

713
00:23:57,718 --> 00:24:00,718
Center that I really didn't

714
00:24:00,788 --> 00:24:01,922
know about. So the questions I

715
00:24:01,922 --> 00:24:03,658
have for you and sort of just

716
00:24:03,658 --> 00:24:05,493
pick the you've answered the

717
00:24:05,493 --> 00:24:06,560
question. But how do people

718
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,262
learn about the Family Justice

719
00:24:08,262 --> 00:24:09,597
Center? Is it largely

720
00:24:09,597 --> 00:24:11,597
word-of-mouth from individuals

721
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:13,701
who are familiar with it and

722
00:24:13,701 --> 00:24:14,368
then how do people get

723
00:24:14,368 --> 00:24:15,970
involved? How you get your

724
00:24:15,970 --> 00:24:18,970
volunteers? And what is your

725
00:24:19,874 --> 00:24:20,608
staffing like? I'll take the

726
00:24:20,608 --> 00:24:22,176
first known prostitute. No way

727
00:24:22,176 --> 00:24:24,979
for the second. So how did

728
00:24:24,979 --> 00:24:26,814
people hear about us? Yes, we

729
00:24:26,814 --> 00:24:29,317
have word of mouth, but a lot

730
00:24:29,317 --> 00:24:32,317
of survivors are referred to

731
00:24:32,353 --> 00:24:35,353
through law enforcement at the

732
00:24:36,391 --> 00:24:37,125
West Family Justice Center,

733
00:24:37,125 --> 00:24:39,525
the Police Department's sexual

734
00:24:40,395 --> 00:24:41,729
in by sexual domestic and

735
00:24:41,729 --> 00:24:42,563
sexual violence unit is

736
00:24:42,563 --> 00:24:43,230
actually housed at the Family

737
00:24:43,230 --> 00:24:46,230
Justice Center. So we have

738
00:24:49,170 --> 00:24:49,837
detectives that they're so

739
00:24:49,837 --> 00:24:50,504
finished speaking with the

740
00:24:50,504 --> 00:24:54,104
victim, they can do a warm

741
00:24:54,308 --> 00:24:56,411
hand off to for additional

742
00:24:56,411 --> 00:24:59,614
services. So we get a lot of

743
00:24:59,614 --> 00:25:02,550
arms that comes survivors from

744
00:25:02,550 --> 00:25:03,484
law enforcement. We have an

745
00:25:03,484 --> 00:25:04,152
annual gala where we advertise

746
00:25:04,152 --> 00:25:08,352
in a lot of people come to

747
00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:10,759
that to support us. Yeah.

748
00:25:10,759 --> 00:25:11,559
Google search. Actually Google

749
00:25:11,559 --> 00:25:12,660
searches the way that a lot of

750
00:25:12,660 --> 00:25:14,729
p we asked that question when

751
00:25:14,729 --> 00:25:18,929
they come in. So it takes some

752
00:25:20,201 --> 00:25:23,171
data on that. Council member

753
00:25:23,171 --> 00:25:25,600
Butler. I was a second seconds

754
00:25:25,600 --> 00:25:25,707
really? So anybody can walk

755
00:25:25,707 --> 00:25:27,410
into our center. They do not

756
00:25:27,410 --> 00:25:29,144
need to schedule an

757
00:25:29,144 --> 00:25:31,413
appointment. Each of our

758
00:25:31,413 --> 00:25:33,348
locations have what we call

759
00:25:33,348 --> 00:25:34,983
navigators so navigating. Tell

760
00:25:34,983 --> 00:25:36,510
people to think of them like a

761
00:25:36,510 --> 00:25:36,784
gps system. You use your gps

762
00:25:36,784 --> 00:25:39,788
system when you don't know how

763
00:25:39,788 --> 00:25:41,322
to get somewhere right? That's

764
00:25:41,322 --> 00:25:42,570
exact same thing that

765
00:25:42,570 --> 00:25:44,359
navigators do. They're they're

766
00:25:44,359 --> 00:25:45,595
really the resource experts.

767
00:25:45,595 --> 00:25:48,290
And once they start hearing

768
00:25:48,290 --> 00:25:48,662
about a situation they gauge,

769
00:25:48,662 --> 00:25:49,898
okay, we need to get you

770
00:25:49,898 --> 00:25:52,300
connected to this to this to

771
00:25:52,300 --> 00:25:53,635
this and from the partners

772
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:54,535
that are on site were able to

773
00:25:54,535 --> 00:25:55,235
make those connections

774
00:25:55,235 --> 00:25:57,235
happened almost immediately,

775
00:25:58,406 --> 00:26:00,108
which is great. So that way

776
00:26:00,108 --> 00:26:00,842
everybody is getting connected

777
00:26:00,842 --> 00:26:02,877
right then and there to a real

778
00:26:02,877 --> 00:26:05,480
human being and not just given

779
00:26:05,480 --> 00:26:06,147
a phone number website because

780
00:26:06,147 --> 00:26:09,147
we know people don't always

781
00:26:10,318 --> 00:26:12,354
follow up with those.

782
00:26:12,354 --> 00:26:14,322
Councilmember, but I think you

783
00:26:14,322 --> 00:26:15,924
meant thank you so much for

784
00:26:15,924 --> 00:26:16,491
the presentation. Yes, I do

785
00:26:16,491 --> 00:26:18,891
have been involved in

786
00:26:20,280 --> 00:26:20,662
committee members. Not only

787
00:26:20,662 --> 00:26:23,620
would the Family Justice

788
00:26:23,732 --> 00:26:24,666
Center, but others as well.

789
00:26:24,666 --> 00:26:25,333
Couple of the question here

790
00:26:25,333 --> 00:26:28,370
because of all, I hope you

791
00:26:28,370 --> 00:26:29,671
guys are not much impacted by

792
00:26:29,671 --> 00:26:30,305
the until just ended was not.

793
00:26:30,305 --> 00:26:33,305
I don't I understand that

794
00:26:34,910 --> 00:26:35,611
part. And if you guys are

795
00:26:35,611 --> 00:26:38,110
still continuing for service

796
00:26:38,580 --> 00:26:39,381
that you committed to provide.

797
00:26:39,381 --> 00:26:42,551
And then a community who badly

798
00:26:42,551 --> 00:26:43,251
needed are being how am

799
00:26:43,251 --> 00:26:46,251
getting insisted at the time

800
00:26:48,857 --> 00:26:49,624
that it needed? And also the

801
00:26:49,624 --> 00:26:52,624
Duke University out of steps

802
00:26:53,228 --> 00:26:53,962
that you provided my to city

803
00:26:53,962 --> 00:26:56,962
standpoint, is that any way

804
00:26:57,999 --> 00:27:00,100
you can also maybe to hire to

805
00:27:00,100 --> 00:27:01,904
maybe you have high percentage

806
00:27:01,904 --> 00:27:04,304
bracket. I wanted understand

807
00:27:05,373 --> 00:27:06,740
what's curious more into the

808
00:27:06,740 --> 00:27:06,674
Salvation, especially some of

809
00:27:06,674 --> 00:27:08,143
these reasons and other

810
00:27:08,143 --> 00:27:09,377
community. I think out of, you

811
00:27:09,377 --> 00:27:12,581
know, the need I believe and I

812
00:27:12,581 --> 00:27:13,549
know them sure. And then I

813
00:27:13,549 --> 00:27:14,215
don't know how much you guys

814
00:27:14,215 --> 00:27:16,718
been able to support in the

815
00:27:16,718 --> 00:27:20,318
90's. And that that would help

816
00:27:20,589 --> 00:27:21,323
us to make. The committee

817
00:27:21,323 --> 00:27:23,692
better actually. And thank you

818
00:27:23,692 --> 00:27:26,694
again. What you guys doing? I

819
00:27:26,694 --> 00:27:27,796
have a lot offense on it.

820
00:27:27,796 --> 00:27:28,530
Probably know from Sherry. And

821
00:27:28,530 --> 00:27:31,330
I I've been working with those

822
00:27:31,330 --> 00:27:31,734
people as well. And thank you

823
00:27:31,734 --> 00:27:34,734
in for your continued support

824
00:27:38,940 --> 00:27:40,776
and service. Coming. Yes. So

825
00:27:40,776 --> 00:27:41,477
especially for South Asian

826
00:27:41,477 --> 00:27:43,445
survivors, we actually have a

827
00:27:43,445 --> 00:27:45,845
couple different options. So

828
00:27:46,348 --> 00:27:49,317
we have a navigator at our

829
00:27:49,317 --> 00:27:50,519
West Center who speaks Hindi

830
00:27:50,519 --> 00:27:51,186
Punjabi. She's very well

831
00:27:51,186 --> 00:27:53,220
connected within the Nepali

832
00:27:53,220 --> 00:27:53,789
community as well. And so a

833
00:27:53,789 --> 00:27:56,357
lot of clients will come

834
00:27:56,357 --> 00:27:59,957
directly from her. But we also

835
00:28:00,329 --> 00:28:00,930
partner with America and they

836
00:28:00,930 --> 00:28:01,630
work with South Station

837
00:28:01,630 --> 00:28:03,332
survivors as well. So there's

838
00:28:03,332 --> 00:28:05,100
a couple different options

839
00:28:05,100 --> 00:28:06,835
there. And our navigators in

840
00:28:06,835 --> 00:28:07,670
totals throughout all of our

841
00:28:07,670 --> 00:28:09,538
centers speak about 20

842
00:28:09,538 --> 00:28:11,375
different languages on their

843
00:28:11,375 --> 00:28:12,108
own. And then we also have a

844
00:28:12,108 --> 00:28:13,108
language line for languages

845
00:28:13,108 --> 00:28:16,108
that were not able to

846
00:28:16,145 --> 00:28:16,779
accommodate face to face. So

847
00:28:16,779 --> 00:28:18,213
we want to make sure that

848
00:28:18,213 --> 00:28:21,213
there's no barrier to anybody

849
00:28:23,485 --> 00:28:25,885
getting service. Thank you.

850
00:28:27,890 --> 00:28:28,523
Vice Mayor. MADAM Mayor, and

851
00:28:28,523 --> 00:28:29,225
thank you both for the for the

852
00:28:29,225 --> 00:28:31,225
wonderful presentation. Just

853
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:34,797
real quick for you. Look like

854
00:28:34,797 --> 00:28:36,650
you a lot of people know

855
00:28:36,650 --> 00:28:36,766
somebody who's going through

856
00:28:36,766 --> 00:28:39,401
but maybe don't realize it or

857
00:28:39,401 --> 00:28:40,269
even recognize it. So what are

858
00:28:40,269 --> 00:28:41,700
some of those signs that

859
00:28:41,700 --> 00:28:41,737
someone MAY be getting

860
00:28:41,737 --> 00:28:44,137
financially abused or even

861
00:28:46,575 --> 00:28:49,575
physically abused? Want to I

862
00:28:56,585 --> 00:28:58,487
do? So a lot of time. A lot of

863
00:28:58,487 --> 00:28:59,221
times. Like I said, we get our

864
00:28:59,221 --> 00:29:01,621
referrals from law enforcement

865
00:29:01,657 --> 00:29:02,391
so they get a call, you know,

866
00:29:02,391 --> 00:29:05,294
from somebody a family member,

867
00:29:05,294 --> 00:29:06,280
something like that, our or

868
00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:07,763
friend because of family

869
00:29:07,763 --> 00:29:09,763
members abusing them

870
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:12,868
financially. We also get calls

871
00:29:12,868 --> 00:29:13,970
from banks because they see

872
00:29:13,970 --> 00:29:15,705
like different transactions or

873
00:29:15,705 --> 00:29:17,173
somebody bringing somebody and

874
00:29:17,173 --> 00:29:19,942
so those are signs like, you

875
00:29:19,942 --> 00:29:22,942
know, looking at records, bank

876
00:29:23,846 --> 00:29:26,816
records. And a lot of

877
00:29:26,816 --> 00:29:27,917
withdraws, especially from a

878
00:29:27,917 --> 00:29:28,951
certain person. But somebody

879
00:29:28,951 --> 00:29:31,421
that's elderly that looks like

880
00:29:31,421 --> 00:29:33,689
they might not be all the way

881
00:29:33,689 --> 00:29:35,925
there still. And they don't

882
00:29:35,925 --> 00:29:38,728
have a like an executor stuff

883
00:29:38,728 --> 00:29:40,362
like Got it. Only question.

884
00:29:40,362 --> 00:29:41,640
Thank you again, both you for

885
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:43,464
the presentation amazing work

886
00:29:47,270 --> 00:29:48,400
too. Some are barely. Yes. All

887
00:29:48,400 --> 00:29:48,704
the other we've as a thank you

888
00:29:48,704 --> 00:29:51,104
for the presentation service

889
00:29:53,342 --> 00:29:54,443
applied directly. Thank you.

890
00:29:54,443 --> 00:29:55,111
And thank you. I've been to

891
00:29:55,111 --> 00:29:55,778
the West Center, right word

892
00:29:55,778 --> 00:29:56,412
next or the early childhood

893
00:29:56,412 --> 00:29:58,812
mental health program for

894
00:29:59,616 --> 00:30:00,483
about a year. And so got to

895
00:30:00,483 --> 00:30:01,183
know the place and did take a

896
00:30:01,183 --> 00:30:04,183
tour through it. It's really

897
00:30:05,880 --> 00:30:06,456
good to know is there income

898
00:30:06,456 --> 00:30:08,856
level requirement? I mean,

899
00:30:10,920 --> 00:30:10,793
what if do have to be low

900
00:30:10,793 --> 00:30:12,695
income or due to it except

901
00:30:12,695 --> 00:30:15,695
people who are high income.

902
00:30:16,899 --> 00:30:18,568
Except anyone. Anyone, any

903
00:30:18,568 --> 00:30:19,235
income level. Okay. That's

904
00:30:19,235 --> 00:30:21,871
that's really good to know.

905
00:30:21,871 --> 00:30:23,390
And I would imagine,

906
00:30:23,390 --> 00:30:24,808
particularly with domestic

907
00:30:24,808 --> 00:30:26,750
violence if someone is managed

908
00:30:26,750 --> 00:30:28,211
to escape their just mystic,

909
00:30:28,211 --> 00:30:30,580
violent situation, if they

910
00:30:30,580 --> 00:30:31,147
show up, they're probably

911
00:30:31,147 --> 00:30:33,147
disoriented, scared.

912
00:30:33,950 --> 00:30:34,651
Frightened MAY be embarrassed

913
00:30:34,651 --> 00:30:36,186
and it's so wonderful to see

914
00:30:36,186 --> 00:30:39,522
all of these services just in

915
00:30:39,522 --> 00:30:41,458
one place. And I know for many

916
00:30:41,458 --> 00:30:43,590
people who MAY not have

917
00:30:43,590 --> 00:30:43,727
transportation trying to get

918
00:30:43,727 --> 00:30:45,160
around on the bus to go to

919
00:30:45,160 --> 00:30:45,862
different places in the past

920
00:30:45,862 --> 00:30:48,262
was really, really difficult.

921
00:30:49,198 --> 00:30:52,200
So. Thank you very Really

922
00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:52,869

00:30:52,869 --> 00:30:54,904
Thank you. It's nice to be

00:30:54,904 --> 00:30:58,410

925
00:30:58,410 --> 00:30:58,742
here, raised my kids here, my

926
00:30:58,742 --> 00:31:00,310

927
00:31:00,310 --> 00:31:00,944

00:32:02,739 --> 00:32:04,841
evening. My name is Kendall

951
00:32:04,841 --> 00:32:05,575
Tang. This is my brother,

952
00:32:05,575 --> 00:32:08,575
Jeremy Tang. There's a nother

953
00:32:11,281 --> 00:32:12,382
MAY be hiding over there. Dad.

954
00:32:12,382 --> 00:32:14,284
I was originally going to plan

955
00:32:14,284 --> 00:32:17,788
to speak a few words at the

956
00:32:17,788 --> 00:32:18,522
next city Council meeting.

957
00:32:18,522 --> 00:32:19,156
However, our family and I were

958
00:32:19,156 --> 00:32:21,124
going to tried doing some

959
00:32:21,124 --> 00:32:23,694
traveling. So now today I

960
00:32:23,694 --> 00:32:25,561
thought would be a good time.

961
00:32:25,561 --> 00:32:27,864
So, you know, dad, first and

962
00:32:27,864 --> 00:32:28,465
foremost, I just want to say,

963
00:32:28,465 --> 00:32:29,165
you know, thank you for

964
00:32:29,165 --> 00:32:31,565
everything that you've given

965
00:32:32,503 --> 00:32:33,504
to the family and to the city

966
00:32:33,504 --> 00:32:35,906
of Hercules. You know, I know

967
00:32:35,906 --> 00:32:38,906
raising my little brother and

968
00:32:39,900 --> 00:32:39,743
wasn't always easy. And I'm

969
00:32:39,743 --> 00:32:41,277
sure we give you plenty of

970
00:32:41,277 --> 00:32:42,246
challenges in migraines along

971
00:32:42,246 --> 00:32:44,314
the way. But you've always

972
00:32:44,314 --> 00:32:46,282
been a great father to us. You

973
00:32:46,282 --> 00:32:48,318
worked hard. You provided for

974
00:32:48,318 --> 00:32:50,954
us and you should us through

975
00:32:50,954 --> 00:32:53,954
your hard work that anything

976
00:32:53,991 --> 00:32:55,659
is possible. You've continued

977
00:32:55,659 --> 00:32:57,694
to show unwavering commitment

978
00:32:57,694 --> 00:32:59,863
to the family in the city of

979
00:32:59,863 --> 00:33:00,631
Hercules. Over the years we've

980
00:33:00,631 --> 00:33:03,631
been very fortunate to call

981
00:33:04,335 --> 00:33:05,350
Hercules our home and

982
00:33:05,350 --> 00:33:06,937
throughout that time, you've

983
00:33:06,937 --> 00:33:07,838
always going above and beyond

984
00:33:07,838 --> 00:33:10,608
for the from years serving as

985
00:33:10,608 --> 00:33:11,675
the city attorney to

986
00:33:11,675 --> 00:33:13,610
eventually taking on the

987
00:33:13,610 --> 00:33:15,513
responsibility of interim city

988
00:33:15,513 --> 00:33:16,313
manager. You dedicated a

989
00:33:16,313 --> 00:33:16,980
significant part of your

990
00:33:16,980 --> 00:33:19,380
career to helping Hercules

991
00:33:20,183 --> 00:33:22,719
succeed. There's a lot of

992
00:33:22,719 --> 00:33:23,687
reasons people love Hercules.

993
00:33:23,687 --> 00:33:25,389
You know, it's a beautiful

994
00:33:25,389 --> 00:33:26,323
location, its diverse

995
00:33:26,323 --> 00:33:28,580
community and the fact that

996
00:33:28,580 --> 00:33:29,994
people feel, you know, safe

997
00:33:29,994 --> 00:33:32,994
here and of course, maybe

998
00:33:33,630 --> 00:33:34,965
happy powder keg like I do.

999
00:33:34,965 --> 00:33:36,934
But Leigh, every city Hercules

1000
00:33:36,934 --> 00:33:39,200
has also faced share of

1001
00:33:39,200 --> 00:33:39,737
challenges. And behind the

1002
00:33:39,737 --> 00:33:41,438
scenes, there are hard-working

1003
00:33:41,438 --> 00:33:43,340
people who spend countless

1004
00:33:43,340 --> 00:33:44,800
hours, you know, trying to

1005
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:46,408
solve these challenges and

1006
00:33:46,711 --> 00:33:47,411
make this community better so

1007
00:33:47,411 --> 00:33:50,748
I'm glad that you've been one

1008
00:33:50,748 --> 00:33:51,782
of those people and over the

1009
00:33:51,782 --> 00:33:53,351
years have had people in

1010
00:33:53,351 --> 00:33:54,819

1011
00:33:54,819 --> 00:33:59,190

00:34:00,825 --> 00:34:01,525

00:34:02,459 --> 00:34:04,562
dad has always made me

00:35:18,937 --> 00:35:20,605
always still made the time to

1053
00:35:20,605 --> 00:35:22,707
help us with their homework.

1054
00:35:22,707 --> 00:35:24,776
Take me to basketball

1055
00:35:24,776 --> 00:35:25,510

00:35:29,347 --> 00:35:30,480
say thank you enough for

00:35:30,480 --> 00:35:31,148
everything you've done. Just

1060
00:35:31,148 --> 00:35:34,986
not for us, but for the city

1061
00:35:34,986 --> 00:35:36,120
and in before your him had a

1062
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:36,821
real position with the city of

1063
00:35:36,821 --> 00:35:39,924
Hercules. It still show up to

1064
00:35:39,924 --> 00:35:40,792
city council meetings and

1065
00:35:40,792 --> 00:35:41,493
we're involved in voice your

1066
00:35:41,493 --> 00:35:43,893
opinion. And that's something

1067
00:35:44,329 --> 00:35:44,996
I've always admired. So I hope

00:35:44,996 --> 00:35:47,996
we make you you know,

1069
00:35:48,330 --> 00:35:49,234
throughout our life and I'm

1070
00:35:49,234 --> 00:35:50,735
excited for this next for this

1071
00:35:50,735 --> 00:35:54,335
next chapter for you. So love

1072
00:36:03,140 --> 00:36:06,140
you, Dad. Thank you. And

1073
00:36:06,510 --> 00:36:06,785
normally don't respond to

1074
00:36:06,785 --> 00:36:09,687
public comment. The mayor will

1075
00:36:09,687 --> 00:36:11,623
allow, I like to say, I. Was

1076
00:36:11,623 --> 00:36:12,357
not expecting that at I think

1077
00:36:12,357 --> 00:36:15,693
it was probably queued up for

1078
00:36:15,693 --> 00:36:16,361
the next meeting. But they'll

1079
00:36:16,361 --> 00:36:19,231
be in a nice vacation time

1080
00:36:19,231 --> 00:36:22,231
and. Won't be available. I

1081
00:36:24,703 --> 00:36:25,403
guess you could zoom in from.

1082
00:36:25,403 --> 00:36:27,906
Hear your comments. You could

1083
00:36:27,906 --> 00:36:31,506
have done that. I'm fine with

1084
00:36:31,676 --> 00:36:33,110
the options you chose I'd like

1085
00:36:33,110 --> 00:36:35,814
to echo what they said. This

1086
00:36:35,814 --> 00:36:36,481
is a fantastic community. They

1087
00:36:36,481 --> 00:36:37,115
grew up here. They are who

1088
00:36:37,115 --> 00:36:40,115
they are because of their

1089
00:36:41,850 --> 00:36:42,286
experiences here. In this

1090
00:36:42,286 --> 00:36:44,189
community. And trying to be

1091
00:36:44,189 --> 00:36:46,591
part of this community. Part

1092
00:36:46,591 --> 00:36:49,591
of Hercules. Thank you for

1093
00:36:49,960 --> 00:36:52,960
coming out spending some time

1094
00:36:59,237 --> 00:37:00,172
with us and we'll see you at a

1095
00:37:00,172 --> 00:37:03,609
you can between the 2 boys is

1096
00:37:03,609 --> 00:37:07,278
my wife who is very low key

1097
00:37:07,278 --> 00:37:09,414
figure here in Hercules.

1098
00:37:09,414 --> 00:37:12,414
Leader. He's been my backbone

1099
00:37:15,854 --> 00:37:16,555
and she. Is key to my success.

1100
00:37:16,555 --> 00:37:19,555
To be perfectly honest, she's

1101
00:37:21,930 --> 00:37:23,161
always been there for me. And

1102
00:37:23,161 --> 00:37:23,862
means by my side and hopefully

1103
00:37:23,862 --> 00:37:26,262
through retirement will stay

1104
00:37:28,367 --> 00:37:32,567
that way. I'll be in or hear

1105
00:37:33,839 --> 00:37:34,573
more. Actually when I was for

1106
00:37:34,573 --> 00:37:36,408
this interim position, I asked

1107
00:37:36,408 --> 00:37:37,420
her, I you know, this is

1108
00:37:37,420 --> 00:37:39,442
something you know, Kayla

1109
00:37:40,112 --> 00:37:41,980
she's like, yeah. So there's

1110
00:37:41,980 --> 00:37:45,580
no hesitation on her part. And

1111
00:37:46,318 --> 00:37:47,190
even I appreciate your

1112
00:37:47,190 --> 00:37:47,686
support. I'm looking forward

1113
00:37:47,686 --> 00:37:50,656
to good things from those 2

1114
00:37:50,656 --> 00:37:53,656
boys. And thank you tank

1115
00:37:56,610 --> 00:37:57,161
family. Yes. If the team

1116
00:37:57,161 --> 00:38:01,166
family is open to it with the

1117
00:38:01,166 --> 00:38:04,166
perhaps like a photo. Like

1118
00:38:05,136 --> 00:38:05,871
with the council? Well, well,

1119
00:38:05,871 --> 00:38:06,571
are in front their city. Don't

1120
00:38:06,571 --> 00:38:09,141
think they should be allowed

1121
00:38:09,141 --> 00:38:11,944
to leave. The media is just a

1122
00:38:11,944 --> 00:38:13,120
bit. I want to see that

1123
00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:15,800
commitment. Yes, would you?

1124
00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:19,280
Would you like to take a photo

1125
00:38:22,288 --> 00:38:27,880
of a someone to do so? Get out

1126
00:38:37,402 --> 00:38:39,402
of way?

1127
00:39:12,838 --> 00:39:15,838
The photos out of ok,

1128
00:39:16,609 --> 00:39:17,243
so we are back. That was well

1129
00:39:17,243 --> 00:39:20,243
deserved. I was there any

1130
00:39:20,613 --> 00:39:21,647
other public comment? I'm

1131
00:39:21,647 --> 00:39:23,249
going to turn to our zoom

1132
00:39:23,249 --> 00:39:23,950
attendees. If you'd like to

1133
00:39:23,950 --> 00:39:26,950
make a public comment, please

care to pull an item? If not,

1142
00:39:47,106 --> 00:39:51,306
then do I hear a motion to

1143
00:39:51,477 --> 00:39:53,120

1144

1204
00:42:00,107 --> 00:42:00,707
rendered the bed unresponsive.

1205

Rapid ratings services based

1210
00:42:10,583 --> 00:42:13,583

1211
00:42:14,454 --> 00:42:16,289
business for 4 years and they

1212
00:42:16,289 --> 00:42:18,289
performed similar projects

1213
00:42:18,325 --> 00:42:19,392
successfully. Public agencies,

1214
00:42:19,392 --> 00:42:20,930

1215
00:42:20,930 --> 00:42:20,760

Richmond, Calistoga Sandra

1217
00:42:26,699 --> 00:42:27,734
fell. The references and

1218
00:42:27,734 --> 00:42:28,468
proposals were checked and

1219
00:42:28,468 --> 00:42:31,468
they were deemed a responsible

1220
00:42:34,541 --> 00:42:37,541
there. So should council move

1221
00:42:37,811 --> 00:42:38,545
forward award the construction

1222
00:42:38,545 --> 00:42:40,180

1224
00:42:40,981 --> 00:42:42,981
Tonight. Construction is

1225
00:42:44,551 --> 00:42:45,452
anticipated to take place

1226
00:42:45,452 --> 00:42:46,153
approximately one month

1227
00:42:46,153 --> 00:42:49,153
following the issuance of the

1228
00:42:51,425 --> 00:42:53,460
notice to proceed and then at

1229
00:42:53,460 --> 00:42:54,428
that point, staff will meet

1230
00:42:54,428 --> 00:42:55,128
with the contractor to firm up

1231
00:42:55,128 --> 00:42:56,963
their schedule, then went to

1232
00:42:56,963 --> 00:43:00,563
speak to doing work in OCTOBER

1233
00:43:01,868 --> 00:43:02,502
NOVEMBER. We did get some

1234
00:43:02,502 --> 00:43:04,438
questions from a council

1235
00:43:04,438 --> 00:43:07,438
member tonight. I'd like to

1236
00:43:09,943 --> 00:43:10,744
address the first was. Rapid

1237
00:43:10,744 --> 00:43:13,800
creating services lenght of

1238
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,820
experience, which was only 4

1239
00:43:15,820 --> 00:43:16,216
years. However, they have

1240
00:43:16,216 --> 00:43:18,285
completed at least a

1241
00:43:18,285 --> 00:43:20,285
half-a-dozen similar projects

1242
00:43:20,287 --> 00:43:20,955
successfully. So they do.

1243
00:43:20,955 --> 00:43:22,955
Qualifications, of course,

1244
00:43:23,758 --> 00:43:24,458
having said that and then

1245
00:43:24,458 --> 00:43:27,861
being a new contractor for us

1246
00:43:27,861 --> 00:43:31,461

1247
00:43:31,765 --> 00:43:32,466
their work with heightened

1248
00:43:32,466 --> 00:43:33,134
awareness. Also excited about

1249
00:43:33,134 --> 00:43:33,968
the possibility potentially

1250
00:43:33,968 --> 00:43:34,702
for a new business

1251
00:43:34,702 --> 00:43:37,102
relationship with a contractor

1252
00:43:37,805 --> 00:43:41,405

1253
00:43:41,909 --> 00:43:43,760
in a very cost-effective So

1254
00:43:43,760 --> 00:43:43,777
with that, that completes my

1255
00:43:43,777 --> 00:43:44,479
staff report. I'd be happy to

1256
00:43:44,479 --> 00:43:46,113
respond to any questions you

1257
00:43:46,113 --> 00:43:49,113
MAY have. You, MR. Roberts,

1258
00:43:50,884 --> 00:43:51,585
questions here. COUNCILMAN

1259
00:43:51,585 --> 00:43:54,121
Bailey is thank MADAM Mayor,

1260
00:43:54,121 --> 00:43:54,789
and thanks to report just put

1261
00:43:54,789 --> 00:43:57,789
works project. Please go to

1262
00:43:57,992 --> 00:43:58,693
lowest bidder. Can confirm

1263
00:43:58,693 --> 00:44:01,228
that effect so that required

1264
00:44:01,228 --> 00:44:03,464
do that? We because it's

1265
00:44:03,464 --> 00:44:05,733
cost-saving measure. Yes, if I

1266
00:44:05,733 --> 00:44:07,201
understand your question,

1267
00:44:07,201 --> 00:44:09,601
councilmember busy, you're how

1268
00:44:10,805 --> 00:44:14,208
the city selects the bitter to

1269
00:44:14,208 --> 00:44:16,544
award the contract for and the

1270
00:44:16,544 --> 00:44:17,745
terminology in a nutshell is

1271
00:44:17,745 --> 00:44:21,345
they have to be a responsible

1272
00:44:21,882 --> 00:44:23,617
bidder submitting the lowest

1273
00:44:23,617 --> 00:44:25,617
responsive, did responsible,

1274
00:44:26,530 --> 00:44:28,256
bitter meeting. They have the

1275
00:44:28,256 --> 00:44:30,656
requisite experience and past

1276
00:44:31,359 --> 00:44:32,260
job performance for the work

1277
00:44:32,260 --> 00:44:34,260
successfully response of 8

1278
00:44:34,328 --> 00:44:37,131
means they fill out the bid

1279
00:44:37,131 --> 00:44:37,799
without any major errors or

1280
00:44:37,799 --> 00:44:40,199
omissions that would allow

1281
00:44:41,350 --> 00:44:43,370
them. Unfair advantage against

1282
00:44:43,370 --> 00:44:45,740
the other bidders if it were

1283
00:44:45,740 --> 00:44:46,440
allowed proceed. So that's why

1284
00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:48,840
we're recommending work. The

1285
00:44:50,244 --> 00:44:50,911
second most bitter. So it

1286
00:44:50,911 --> 00:44:53,911
sounds like we've staff is

1287
00:44:54,282 --> 00:44:54,849
taking time let your kids.

1288
00:44:54,849 --> 00:44:55,583
Ranked them based on

1289
00:44:55,583 --> 00:44:57,819
qualifications and then ranked

1290
00:44:57,819 --> 00:44:58,553
them based on pricing in shows

1291
00:44:58,553 --> 00:44:59,220
when it was best, is the best

1292
00:44:59,220 --> 00:45:01,620
available, which is lowest

1293
00:45:05,427 --> 00:45:06,160
bidder. You really works.

1294
00:45:06,160 --> 00:45:08,463
Might have missed something in

1295
00:45:08,463 --> 00:45:09,663
there for whatever the number

1296
00:45:09,663 --> 00:45:12,330
was disqualify the entire

1297
00:45:12,330 --> 00:45:15,330
package. So it sounds like

1298
00:45:15,303 --> 00:45:16,871
Specifically, there's when

1299
00:45:16,871 --> 00:45:17,872
they enter their bid to enter

1300
00:45:17,872 --> 00:45:20,872
unit price and then extended

1301
00:45:21,442 --> 00:45:23,442
price. They inadvertently

1302
00:45:26,747 --> 00:45:27,949
omitted all but one of them.

1303
00:45:27,949 --> 00:45:28,750
So allowing that proceed

1304
00:45:28,750 --> 00:45:30,452
potentially could allow them

1305
00:45:30,452 --> 00:45:31,285
to change the numbers to their

1306
00:45:31,285 --> 00:45:34,885
advantage at a later date. So

1307
00:45:35,189 --> 00:45:35,923
it could not move forward.

1308
00:45:35,923 --> 00:45:36,658
Very unfortunate incident. We

1309
00:45:36,658 --> 00:45:37,358
did reach out reach out to the

1310
00:45:37,358 --> 00:45:39,758
contractor who haven't worked

1311
00:45:40,528 --> 00:45:41,295
for the floor. Of course,

1312
00:45:41,295 --> 00:45:43,163
encourage them to please

1313
00:45:43,163 --> 00:45:45,563
continue trying to projects

1314
00:45:47,335 --> 00:45:49,804
here in her keys. It's a good

1315
00:45:49,804 --> 00:45:50,505
lesson. Her was work would be

1316
00:45:50,505 --> 00:45:52,240
starting commensurate OCTOBER

1317
00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:55,240
numbers that there. Yeah, we

1318
00:45:55,376 --> 00:45:56,945
have to meet up with them. We

1319
00:45:56,945 --> 00:45:57,879
anticipate though the work

1320
00:45:57,879 --> 00:46:01,479
will start in OCTOBER and go

1321
00:46:01,616 --> 00:46:02,316
into NOVEMBER. You looking for

1322
00:46:02,316 --> 00:46:03,852
today. We have lots miles and

1323
00:46:03,852 --> 00:46:05,353
miles of roads. Any people are

1324
00:46:05,353 --> 00:46:08,230
so we in my lifetime. So let

1325
00:46:08,230 --> 00:46:10,580
it. I thank you. Thank you.

1326
00:46:10,580 --> 00:46:10,825
Oh, yes, councilmember butter.

1327
00:46:10,825 --> 00:46:13,728
I thank you, MADAM Chair, and

1328
00:46:13,728 --> 00:46:16,728
thank you. Doctor about this

1329
00:46:18,867 --> 00:46:21,569
for the British and my. I'm my

1330
00:46:21,569 --> 00:46:22,204
question. I had little more of

1331
00:46:22,204 --> 00:46:23,710
the few more questions in

1332
00:46:23,710 --> 00:46:23,605
mind. I can can you just

1333
00:46:23,605 --> 00:46:25,605
address those more

1334
00:46:26,842 --> 00:46:27,542
importantly, I think. Sounds

1335
00:46:27,542 --> 00:46:30,212
like, you know, the these are

1336
00:46:30,212 --> 00:46:33,212
the the contractor that we

1337
00:46:34,182 --> 00:46:37,182
have hired. I'm curious to

1338
00:46:37,185 --> 00:46:39,187
learn that they know how. This

1339
00:46:39,187 --> 00:46:41,587
warranty, Michelle to sting

1340
00:46:41,757 --> 00:46:42,491
and come back to sting and

1341
00:46:42,491 --> 00:46:45,491
work requirement will apply in

1342
00:46:46,528 --> 00:46:47,663
this kind of things. And then

1343
00:46:47,663 --> 00:46:48,230
how residents will be notified

1344
00:46:48,230 --> 00:46:50,230
regarding the parking

1345
00:46:51,967 --> 00:46:54,367
restrictions. Drive axes, dust

1346
00:46:55,904 --> 00:46:56,538
noise and traffic controls.

1347
00:46:56,538 --> 00:46:58,907
And whether these unused

1348
00:46:58,907 --> 00:47:01,307
contigency the would be

1349
00:47:01,343 --> 00:47:02,177
automatically the pond to the

1350
00:47:02,177 --> 00:47:04,577
orginal funding sources or

1351
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:05,814
goes back to general fund.

1352
00:47:05,814 --> 00:47:07,149
Would you be able defend those

1353
00:47:07,149 --> 00:47:09,549
areas as well? Certainly,

1354
00:47:11,220 --> 00:47:13,620
COUNCILMAN, better am. He

1355
00:47:14,189 --> 00:47:15,324
didn't dissipate discussing

1356
00:47:15,324 --> 00:47:16,925
those items and answering with

1357
00:47:16,925 --> 00:47:18,127
a companion item, which is

1358
00:47:18,127 --> 00:47:20,950
following because it's

1359
00:47:20,950 --> 00:47:21,830
primarily about construction

1360
00:47:21,830 --> 00:47:23,650
management. How we manage the

1361
00:47:23,650 --> 00:47:26,268
project so we could move that

1362
00:47:26,268 --> 00:47:26,836
up and talk now are if you if

1363
00:47:26,836 --> 00:47:29,710
you're okay, we could

1364
00:47:29,710 --> 00:47:32,671
different for that item. So so

1365
00:47:33,175 --> 00:47:35,430
the next item we anticipated

1366
00:47:35,430 --> 00:47:35,778
answering those questions at

1367
00:47:35,778 --> 00:47:36,579
that time as part of the scope

1368
00:47:36,579 --> 00:47:40,179
of work for a private car.

1369
00:47:41,417 --> 00:47:42,118
Construction manager. No, I

1370
00:47:42,118 --> 00:47:42,785
don't want to know they'll be

1371
00:47:42,785 --> 00:47:44,420
able to care. I want to get

1372
00:47:44,420 --> 00:47:45,420
the rolling, but I want to

1373
00:47:45,420 --> 00:47:48,420
have transparency. And then on

1374
00:47:49,258 --> 00:47:49,959
the other side of these areas.

1375
00:47:49,959 --> 00:47:52,959
Yes, correct. Can we provide

1376
00:47:52,962 --> 00:47:56,650
that to you? So this does is

1377
00:47:56,650 --> 00:47:57,399
this is the award to the

1378
00:47:57,399 --> 00:47:58,133
contractor for having the

1379
00:47:58,133 --> 00:48:00,533
correct experience, the lowest

1380
00:48:02,772 --> 00:48:03,973
bid. But the next item is

1381
00:48:03,973 --> 00:48:06,973
about overseeing that work in

1382
00:48:07,143 --> 00:48:07,743
ensuring they do it in

1383
00:48:07,743 --> 00:48:09,743
accordance appropriate

1384
00:48:09,745 --> 00:48:10,779
standards and procedures. And

1385
00:48:10,779 --> 00:48:13,179
that's something that our

1386
00:48:13,315 --> 00:48:15,315
construction management firm

1387
00:48:16,552 --> 00:48:17,220
will enact. That's a separate

1388
00:48:17,220 --> 00:48:20,820
item. But if you'd like, we

1389
00:48:21,123 --> 00:48:21,824
can discuss that now. Who will

1390
00:48:21,824 --> 00:48:24,594
that will be critical if you

1391
00:48:24,594 --> 00:48:25,228
can share some on certain

1392
00:48:25,228 --> 00:48:28,228
sites or anything he can

1393
00:48:35,972 --> 00:48:37,106
sure so full disclosure here,

1394
00:48:37,106 --> 00:48:40,276
we did get an email with

1395
00:48:40,276 --> 00:48:42,345
questions from COUNCILMAN So

1396
00:48:42,345 --> 00:48:43,279
quickly. First question is

1397
00:48:43,279 --> 00:48:43,980
about written authorization

1398
00:48:43,980 --> 00:48:47,580
for continued to use. This is

1399
00:48:49,852 --> 00:48:50,519
for the 10% council approval

1400
00:48:50,519 --> 00:48:51,320
of the contract authorizes

1401
00:48:51,320 --> 00:48:53,456
staff to proceed with the 10%.

1402
00:48:53,456 --> 00:48:56,960
And then as part of the work,

1403
00:48:56,960 --> 00:48:59,295
we do change orders which look

1404
00:48:59,295 --> 00:49:00,229
at equipment materials and

1405
00:49:00,229 --> 00:49:02,629
methods that the contractor

1406
00:49:05,902 --> 00:49:06,569
uses comes up with a cost. As

1407
00:49:06,569 --> 00:49:08,838
part of their construction

1408
00:49:08,838 --> 00:49:09,472
manager work that gets routed

1409
00:49:09,472 --> 00:49:10,273
for my signature, a city

1410
00:49:10,273 --> 00:49:12,407
engineer and then also the

1411
00:49:12,407 --> 00:49:14,310
city manager. And then it

1412
00:49:14,310 --> 00:49:16,212
proceeds. So that's that's how

1413
00:49:16,212 --> 00:49:18,414
we address the contingency. If

1414
00:49:18,414 --> 00:49:20,383
we exceed council authorized

1415
00:49:20,383 --> 00:49:21,451
contingency, if we can

1416
00:49:21,451 --> 00:49:23,530
anticipate that, in fact, in

1417
00:49:23,530 --> 00:49:23,686
advance, we come back for a

1418
00:49:23,686 --> 00:49:26,860
additional funding in the

1419
00:49:28,580 --> 00:49:30,326
budget. So the second item is

1420
00:49:30,326 --> 00:49:31,270
the monthly cost and schedule

1421
00:49:31,270 --> 00:49:33,270
reporting, including timeless

1422
00:49:34,664 --> 00:49:35,265
in delivery of risk. The

1423
00:49:35,265 --> 00:49:37,265
construction management

1424
00:49:38,902 --> 00:49:41,404
company does do daily working

1425
00:49:41,404 --> 00:49:43,539
days as well monthly working

1426
00:49:43,539 --> 00:49:44,708
days. And as part of that

1427
00:49:44,708 --> 00:49:45,375
tracks, the time for which

1428
00:49:45,375 --> 00:49:48,144
there's a number of working

1429
00:49:48,144 --> 00:49:48,812
days to complete the project

1430
00:49:48,812 --> 00:49:50,130
and if they run over them,

1431
00:49:50,130 --> 00:49:52,130
they're potentially subject

1432
00:49:55,552 --> 00:49:57,620
for liquidated damages. And so

1433
00:49:57,620 --> 00:49:58,487
part of managing the project

1434
00:49:58,487 --> 00:49:59,189
is to look at the contractors,

1435
00:49:59,189 --> 00:50:00,657
progress where they're at and

1436
00:50:00,657 --> 00:50:02,125
persecuting the entirety of

1437
00:50:02,125 --> 00:50:02,826
that work and anticipating

1438
00:50:02,826 --> 00:50:05,226
potentially any challenges in

1439
00:50:06,663 --> 00:50:07,997
the future. With regards to

1440
00:50:07,997 --> 00:50:08,598
your question of independent

1441
00:50:08,598 --> 00:50:10,598
validation of material,

1442
00:50:11,701 --> 00:50:12,369
quality and quantities. This

1443
00:50:12,369 --> 00:50:15,204
is a key issue of quality

1444
00:50:15,204 --> 00:50:17,107
assurance and quality control.

1445
00:50:17,107 --> 00:50:17,807
So we do get submittals in

1446
00:50:17,807 --> 00:50:20,770
advance of all the materials

1447
00:50:20,770 --> 00:50:21,178
coming on to the project,

1448
00:50:21,178 --> 00:50:22,879
including, for example, the

1449
00:50:22,879 --> 00:50:23,780
mixed designs for asphalt,

1450
00:50:23,780 --> 00:50:24,514
concrete and also Portland

1451
00:50:24,514 --> 00:50:26,914
cement, concrete, Houston, the

1452
00:50:34,925 --> 00:50:35,592
sidewalks. The quantity he's

1453
00:50:35,592 --> 00:50:37,127
measured either by tonnage

1454
00:50:37,127 --> 00:50:38,962
based on scales for the

1455
00:50:38,962 --> 00:50:39,730
trucks. The qualities are

1456
00:50:39,730 --> 00:50:41,310
based on square footage for

1457
00:50:41,310 --> 00:50:44,310
sidewalk or linear feet for

1458
00:50:45,536 --> 00:50:46,903
curb and gutter. Then the next

1459
00:50:46,903 --> 00:50:47,971
question is Post-construction

1460
00:50:47,971 --> 00:50:48,605
report documenting final

1461
00:50:48,605 --> 00:50:50,340
costs, payment condition,

1462
00:50:50,340 --> 00:50:52,442
improvement warranty items and

1463
00:50:52,442 --> 00:50:53,943
lessons for future Foxboro

1464
00:50:53,943 --> 00:50:57,180
faces. So thank you. One of

1465
00:50:57,180 --> 00:50:58,282
the advantages of using Sando.

1466
00:50:58,282 --> 00:50:58,882
We'll talk about next is that

1467
00:50:58,882 --> 00:51:00,584
they were actually the

1468
00:51:00,584 --> 00:51:02,285
designers are not only phase

1469
00:51:02,285 --> 00:51:05,285
one, but also the future

1470
00:51:06,190 --> 00:51:08,580
phases as well as So what they

1471
00:51:08,580 --> 00:51:08,725
learn out there based on the

1472
00:51:08,725 --> 00:51:09,793
unique aspects of that site

1473
00:51:09,793 --> 00:51:13,393
can then be applied to future

1474
00:51:15,732 --> 00:51:16,434
phases. So the construction

1475
00:51:16,434 --> 00:51:17,701
management firm does come up

1476
00:51:17,701 --> 00:51:18,669
with their own cost

1477
00:51:18,669 --> 00:51:21,405
independently and Mary's it up

1478
00:51:21,405 --> 00:51:22,606
with the contractor submits if

1479
00:51:22,606 --> 00:51:23,807
they need to, they'll verify

1480
00:51:23,807 --> 00:51:25,743
with the coins are actually

1481
00:51:25,743 --> 00:51:26,911
out in the field for monthly

1482
00:51:26,911 --> 00:51:29,311
progress payments to ensure

1483
00:51:31,182 --> 00:51:32,516
those are accurate. And then

1484
00:51:32,516 --> 00:51:34,510
under the contract, the

1485
00:51:34,510 --> 00:51:37,488
contractor is required to do a

1486
00:51:37,488 --> 00:51:38,880
one year warranty. So that's

1487
00:51:38,880 --> 00:51:40,880
something that they're

1488
00:51:43,327 --> 00:51:44,280
required to do. So you had a

1489
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:45,896
second series of questions as

1490
00:51:45,896 --> 00:51:47,832
well until cover here. Really

1491
00:51:47,832 --> 00:51:48,399
quickly payment. Life

1492
00:51:48,399 --> 00:51:49,600
extension, measurable

1493
00:51:49,600 --> 00:51:51,600
condition improvements are

1494
00:51:51,669 --> 00:51:54,638
expected. So over lies spit

1495
00:51:54,638 --> 00:51:55,339
anticipated to last 10 years

1496
00:51:55,339 --> 00:51:56,730
after that point, there's

1497
00:51:56,730 --> 00:51:58,473
follow-up treatments which can

1498
00:51:59,410 --> 00:52:00,443
extend the life starting with

1499
00:52:00,443 --> 00:52:01,145
anything from a slurry seal

1500
00:52:01,145 --> 00:52:04,145
moving up to another overlay

1501
00:52:04,982 --> 00:52:05,849
on top of it. With regards to

1502
00:52:05,849 --> 00:52:07,849
material testing complexion

1503
00:52:07,919 --> 00:52:09,787
testing corrective work

1504
00:52:09,787 --> 00:52:11,189
requirements. So the key

1505
00:52:11,189 --> 00:52:14,189
issue, this is a pavement

1506
00:52:17,610 --> 00:52:19,464
overlay project is the asphalt

1507
00:52:19,464 --> 00:52:20,465
he's placed properly on the

1508
00:52:20,465 --> 00:52:22,667
street comes the right

1509
00:52:22,667 --> 00:52:24,667
temperature. It's mixed

1510
00:52:25,503 --> 00:52:26,704
correctly. If you have a

1511
00:52:26,704 --> 00:52:27,438
breakdown, roller a Finnish

1512
00:52:27,438 --> 00:52:28,172
roller. You have to get on the

1513
00:52:28,172 --> 00:52:28,906
right time. If you go too

1514
00:52:28,906 --> 00:52:31,800
soon, it over compacts. If you

1515
00:52:31,800 --> 00:52:32,243
wait too long, that stretches.

1516
00:52:32,243 --> 00:52:33,377
So the court insurance quality

1517
00:52:33,377 --> 00:52:35,446
control for Overlays are

1518
00:52:35,446 --> 00:52:37,548
really in the hands of the

1519
00:52:37,548 --> 00:52:39,548
public Inspector resident

1520
00:52:40,385 --> 00:52:41,452
engineer in this case on

1521
00:52:41,452 --> 00:52:42,860
Sandals. Team, we have someone

1522
00:52:42,860 --> 00:52:43,454
who's not only a seasoned

1523
00:52:43,454 --> 00:52:44,122
inspector, but also a

1524
00:52:44,122 --> 00:52:46,122
professional engineer. Very

1525
00:52:47,492 --> 00:52:49,892
fortunate in that regard.

1526
00:52:51,950 --> 00:52:52,997
Should we have problems? We

1527
00:52:52,997 --> 00:52:54,833
will then bring out the

1528
00:52:54,833 --> 00:52:55,500
testing company to take out

1529
00:52:55,500 --> 00:52:58,500
samples of the asphalt can

1530
00:52:58,536 --> 00:52:59,537
actually catch them generally

1531
00:52:59,537 --> 00:53:00,171
we don't do that is standard

1532
00:53:00,171 --> 00:53:02,571
practice. Moses. If under

1533
00:53:02,707 --> 00:53:04,709
federally funded project, if

1534
00:53:04,709 --> 00:53:05,409
we were you end up with a

1535
00:53:05,409 --> 00:53:07,809
patchwork samples because it

1536
00:53:09,981 --> 00:53:11,949
has to be a random sampling.

1537
00:53:11,949 --> 00:53:12,584
We don't do that unless we are

1538
00:53:12,584 --> 00:53:14,984
concerned that there's an

1539
00:53:17,956 --> 00:53:19,570
issue. Then with regards to

1540
00:53:19,570 --> 00:53:19,724
how residents will be

1541
00:53:19,724 --> 00:53:20,625
notified. So we do are very

1542
00:53:20,625 --> 00:53:21,359
closely with residents is

1543
00:53:21,359 --> 00:53:23,661
really important aspect of the

1544
00:53:23,661 --> 00:53:26,264
of the job. The first thing

1545
00:53:26,264 --> 00:53:27,165
residents will get is a letter

1546
00:53:27,165 --> 00:53:27,899
indicating the projects coming

1547
00:53:27,899 --> 00:53:30,702
an approximate times when it's

1548
00:53:30,702 --> 00:53:32,637
going occur. Then followed up

1549
00:53:32,637 --> 00:53:35,370
their door hangers for

1550
00:53:35,973 --> 00:53:37,676
actually when the painting

1551
00:53:37,676 --> 00:53:38,410
occurs. And 24 48 hours notice

1552
00:53:38,410 --> 00:53:39,770
ahead of time and barricades

1553
00:53:39,770 --> 00:53:41,713
for Carson. So people don't

1554
00:53:41,713 --> 00:53:44,616
park in the streets. Obviously

1555
00:53:44,616 --> 00:53:46,616
working residents closely.

1556
00:53:47,352 --> 00:53:48,954
This is a key issue. So with

1557
00:53:48,954 --> 00:53:51,354
the guards and use

1558
00:53:53,892 --> 00:53:56,828
contingency, it does. And use

1559
00:53:56,828 --> 00:53:58,630
contingency of the budget does

1560
00:53:58,630 --> 00:53:58,730
return to its original funding

1561
00:53:58,730 --> 00:53:59,997
source, if you will, if you

1562
00:53:59,997 --> 00:54:02,397
want know, use that

1563
00:54:02,934 --> 00:54:04,870
terminology. But so if its gas

1564
00:54:04,870 --> 00:54:06,338
tax and say there's a million

1565
00:54:06,338 --> 00:54:08,106
dollars and 900,000 of it goes

1566
00:54:08,106 --> 00:54:08,807
to the project, they're still

1567
00:54:08,807 --> 00:54:11,807
100,000 in the budget in gas

1568
00:54:13,712 --> 00:54:14,346
tax for that fiscal year. I

1569
00:54:14,346 --> 00:54:16,746
believe that answers your

1570
00:54:20,352 --> 00:54:22,352
questions. Hopefully that

1571
00:54:22,354 --> 00:54:23,589
wasn't too thank you so much

1572
00:54:23,589 --> 00:54:25,230
for that in detail. One's and

1573
00:54:25,230 --> 00:54:25,724
then a very satisfactory level

1574
00:54:25,724 --> 00:54:26,391
and that I think that it's a

1575
00:54:26,391 --> 00:54:28,791
confidence that even though

1576
00:54:29,595 --> 00:54:30,295
you can man is and deliver the

1577
00:54:30,295 --> 00:54:30,929
as we promise. And thank you

1578
00:54:30,929 --> 00:54:33,332
again for being on top of

1579
00:54:33,332 --> 00:54:36,332
that. To any other questions

1580
00:54:42,206 --> 00:54:42,908
here. Just so and strawberry.

1581
00:54:42,908 --> 00:54:46,178
So the locations. And so this

1582
00:54:46,178 --> 00:54:46,879
is going to be the paving

1583
00:54:46,879 --> 00:54:49,879
Dartford and Oxford. Is that

1584
00:54:52,284 --> 00:54:53,952
correct? That's correct. And

1585
00:54:53,952 --> 00:54:54,686
then there's going to be a

1586
00:54:54,686 --> 00:54:57,686
sidewalk repair and Willow and

1587
00:55:00,426 --> 00:55:03,426
on Brighton. And there's also

1588
00:55:04,630 --> 00:55:04,797
a court in there. The bureau

1589
00:55:04,797 --> 00:55:08,133
Look at a map It's going to be

1590
00:55:08,133 --> 00:55:10,533
resurfaced as well. Thank

1591
00:55:12,204 --> 00:55:14,106
Okay. Good. And the them most

1592
00:55:14,106 --> 00:55:15,406
of the money will come from sb

1593
00:55:15,406 --> 00:55:16,410
One or from Measure h a little

1594
00:55:16,410 --> 00:55:19,410
bit from the General Fund

1595
00:55:19,780 --> 00:55:21,780
Capital Reserve. That's

1596
00:55:21,346 --> 00:55:21,981
correct. Yeah, always have to

1597
00:55:21,981 --> 00:55:22,982
cobble together different

1598
00:55:22,982 --> 00:55:23,949
kinds of funds to get these

1599
00:55:23,949 --> 00:55:26,518
paving projects done. And I

1600
00:55:26,518 --> 00:55:27,687
know it takes quite a while.

1601
00:55:27,687 --> 00:55:28,386
We have a great deal of need

1602
00:55:28,386 --> 00:55:31,986
here in the city of Hercules

1603
00:55:32,625 --> 00:55:33,459

00:55:33,459 --> 00:55:34,627

1605
00:55:34,627 --> 00:55:37,627

though, recently completed the

00:57:09,756 --> 00:57:10,423
design on the project. There

1652
00:57:10,423 --> 00:57:12,291
are formally known as Billy

1653
00:57:12,291 --> 00:57:14,594

1654
00:57:14,594 --> 00:57:17,297
in fact, on the cities,

1655
00:57:17,297 --> 00:57:18,531
prequalified engineering list

1656
00:57:18,531 --> 00:57:20,100
as mentioned city staff to

1657
00:57:20,100 --> 00:57:23,303
work with their team over the

1658
00:57:23,303 --> 00:57:24,337
past decade where they

1659
00:57:24,337 --> 00:57:24,905
performed well engaged

1660
00:57:24,905 --> 00:57:25,606
understanding of the

1661
00:57:25,606 --> 00:57:28,606
department's needs as well as

1662
00:57:30,877 --> 00:57:32,110
expectations. Sandals. Design

1663
00:57:32,110 --> 00:57:33,146
contract includes future

1664
00:57:33,146 --> 00:57:35,281
phases of Foxborough, as well

1665
00:57:35,281 --> 00:57:36,650
as sections of Willow having

1666
00:57:36,650 --> 00:57:37,317
to perform. The construction

1667
00:57:37,317 --> 00:57:38,510
management on this project

1668
00:57:38,510 --> 00:57:40,200
would beneficial since they're

1669
00:57:40,200 --> 00:57:40,954
familiar with the design. And

1670
00:57:40,954 --> 00:57:43,322
knowledge gained those unique

1671
00:57:43,322 --> 00:57:44,257
to the Foxboro neighborhood

1672
00:57:44,257 --> 00:57:47,857
can be applied on the future

1673
00:57:49,129 --> 00:57:51,231
faces of work. So Steph is

1674
00:57:51,231 --> 00:57:54,831
then recommending in a word to

1675
00:57:55,502 --> 00:57:59,102
sando for a contract amount of

1676
00:57:59,305 --> 00:58:00,700
$81,974. I know we've spoken

1677
00:58:00,700 --> 00:58:02,609
some detail to this contract

1678
00:58:02,609 --> 00:58:03,277
that if there any questions,

1679
00:58:03,277 --> 00:58:05,212
Bristol principal engineer

1680
00:58:05,212 --> 00:58:05,879

1681
00:58:05,879 --> 00:58:08,182

thank you. Thank you. Any

1683
00:58:12,252 --> 00:58:13,860
questions here from council?

1684
00:58:13,860 --> 00:58:13,754
But coming to counselor

1685
00:58:13,754 --> 00:58:16,754
Bailey, this think you just

1686
00:58:16,824 --> 00:58:17,590
after the report issue that

1687
00:58:17,590 --> 00:58:20,590
stems because of projects is

1688
00:58:22,162 --> 00:58:23,397
dust and starting earlier than

1689
00:58:23,397 --> 00:58:23,964
and set up times and assuming

1690
00:58:23,964 --> 00:58:25,599
or construction major

1691
00:58:25,599 --> 00:58:27,935
companies going to be on top

1692
00:58:27,935 --> 00:58:28,502
of that at a city staff comes

1693
00:58:28,502 --> 00:58:31,400
up often. We have to

1694
00:58:31,400 --> 00:58:33,600
strengthen. What the new

1695
00:58:33,600 --> 00:58:33,941
roads. We don't. We wouldn't

1696
00:58:33,941 --> 00:58:34,608
it silence. And then we also

1697
00:58:34,608 --> 00:58:37,144
don't like So just those 2

1698
00:58:37,144 --> 00:58:39,513
questions. Thank you. So these

1699
00:58:39,513 --> 00:58:40,714
projects move really quickly.

1700
00:58:40,714 --> 00:58:43,684
And and a lot of money gets

1701
00:58:43,684 --> 00:58:44,385
spent really quickly.

1702
00:58:44,385 --> 00:58:46,785
Absolutely essential that we

1703
00:58:50,292 --> 00:58:50,925
have the construction

1704
00:58:50,925 --> 00:58:52,392
management firm cradle to

1705
00:58:52,392 --> 00:58:54,127
grave. So they have full

1706
00:58:54,127 --> 00:58:55,496
understanding and control of

1707
00:58:55,496 --> 00:58:57,970
the work, especially given our

1708
00:58:57,970 --> 00:58:58,980
research levels here at the

1709
00:58:58,980 --> 00:58:58,899
city. This is one of those

1710
00:58:58,899 --> 00:59:01,969
areas where we want to make

1711
00:59:01,969 --> 00:59:05,569
sure we don't skimp. So that

1712
00:59:06,574 --> 00:59:09,574
they do the full 400. It

1713
00:59:11,512 --> 00:59:12,646
includes safety like staff is

1714
00:59:12,646 --> 00:59:13,381
a All just a companies,

1715
00:59:13,381 --> 00:59:14,749
correct? Yes, the whole thing.

1716
00:59:14,749 --> 00:59:15,349
Okay. Thank you. That's all

1717
00:59:15,349 --> 00:59:17,749
think. Okay. Any other

1718
00:59:19,860 --> 00:59:21,860
questions here? Councilmember

1719
00:59:24,124 --> 00:59:24,926
Grimsley, thank you. Director

1720
00:59:24,926 --> 00:59:26,728
Robert, you indicated that the

1721
00:59:26,728 --> 00:59:29,728
project it would likely take

1722
00:59:30,431 --> 00:59:31,165
place in OCTOBER and NOVEMBER

1723
00:59:31,165 --> 00:59:33,565
once NOVEMBER's typically when

1724
00:59:34,202 --> 00:59:34,901
a rainy season begins in, I'm

1725
00:59:34,901 --> 00:59:35,602
just warning. But the impact

1726
00:59:35,602 --> 00:59:36,270
of weather, especially since

1727
00:59:36,270 --> 00:59:38,670
we're anticipating in only,

1728
00:59:41,209 --> 00:59:44,809
you know, this year. So, yes,

1729
00:59:44,912 --> 00:59:45,646
excellent question. I saw

1730
00:59:45,646 --> 00:59:46,280
article in news and it's sit

1731
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:49,880
on be starting as soon as

1732
00:59:50,151 --> 00:59:53,151
NOVEMBER. The streets are in

1733
00:59:54,188 --> 00:59:55,356
very poor condition out there.

1734
00:59:55,356 --> 00:59:56,691
Obviously, we've had a bit of

1735
00:59:56,691 --> 00:59:57,325
a delay in getting this

1736
00:59:57,325 --> 00:59:59,725
project out some staffing

1737
01:00:01,696 --> 01:00:02,663
changes. So we're going full

1738
01:00:02,663 --> 01:00:05,663
speed ahead with the intention

1739
01:00:05,667 --> 01:00:08,436
of getting it done. Head of

1740
01:00:08,436 --> 01:00:10,471
the weather, the benefit to

1741
01:00:10,471 --> 01:00:11,139
this is the nature of the work

1742
01:00:11,139 --> 01:00:12,172
involves grinding existing

1743
01:00:12,172 --> 01:00:14,308
asphalt and then overlaying

1744
01:00:14,308 --> 01:00:15,900
it. The new asphalt. We're not

1745
01:00:15,900 --> 01:00:18,900
getting down into the sub

1746
01:00:20,470 --> 01:00:20,748
grade or the gravelly dirt,

1747
01:00:20,748 --> 01:00:24,118
which gets wet, you could be

1748
01:00:24,118 --> 01:00:24,786
chasing that all winter. So

1749
01:00:24,786 --> 01:00:25,487
based our calculations, you

1750
01:00:25,487 --> 01:00:29,870
know, we believe they can be

1751
01:00:29,491 --> 01:00:30,759
successful and get it done.

1752
01:00:30,759 --> 01:00:31,459
And that the PRESIDENT's

1753
01:00:31,459 --> 01:00:32,600
frankly deserve to have their

1754
01:00:32,600 --> 01:00:35,600
street sent as soon as

1755
01:00:37,732 --> 01:00:38,433
possible. Thank Greatly

1756
01:00:38,433 --> 01:00:39,670
appreciate. Know the folks in

1757
01:00:39,670 --> 01:00:40,969
the Foxboro, neighborhood

1758
01:00:40,969 --> 01:00:42,969
certainly appreciated had

1759
01:00:42,970 --> 01:00:44,390
discussions in years past

1760
01:00:44,390 --> 01:00:44,772
about that particular

1761
01:00:44,772 --> 01:00:47,375
community sort of feeling left

1762
01:00:47,375 --> 01:00:48,543
out of the Hercules community.

1763
01:00:48,543 --> 01:00:49,210
So they're getting some great

1764
01:00:49,210 --> 01:00:51,610
attention this year. Thank

1765
01:00:56,250 --> 01:00:56,951
you. Other questions? MR.

1766
01:00:56,951 --> 01:00:59,951
Robertson run is coming from

1767
01:01:01,222 --> 01:01:02,457
the Gas Tax Fund. Think that's

1768
01:01:02,457 --> 01:01:03,992
here again, we're cobbling

1769
01:01:03,992 --> 01:01:04,693
together all different kinds

1770
01:01:04,693 --> 01:01:08,293
of funds to finally get these

1771
01:01:10,499 --> 01:01:11,600
projects done. It is the think

1772
01:01:11,600 --> 01:01:14,368
it is a gas tax fund and so

1773
01:01:14,368 --> 01:01:17,272
tier Tier Point. Mayor and

1774
01:01:17,272 --> 01:01:18,306
we're spending approximately

1775
01:01:18,306 --> 01:01:19,340
$850,000 here in Street.

1776
01:01:19,340 --> 01:01:22,211
Overlays based on our latest

1777
01:01:22,211 --> 01:01:23,211
household study, we need about

1778
01:01:23,211 --> 01:01:23,811
3.6 million just to keep our

1779
01:01:23,811 --> 01:01:26,211
pavement in the current

1780
01:01:26,848 --> 01:01:27,415
condition that it's in. So.

1781
01:01:27,415 --> 01:01:29,885
This is not unique to

1782
01:01:29,885 --> 01:01:31,586
Hercules. This is happening

1783
01:01:31,586 --> 01:01:32,287
all over the Bay area. But

1784
01:01:32,287 --> 01:01:34,687
nevertheless, still a concern

1785
01:01:36,900 --> 01:01:38,661
and very real. Thank you. And

1786
01:01:38,661 --> 01:01:39,360
I do Foxboro is probably our

1787
01:01:39,360 --> 01:01:40,620
oldest neighborhood or one of

1788
01:01:40,620 --> 01:01:42,297
our oldest neighborhoods here

1789
01:01:42,297 --> 01:01:42,998
in Turkey. Leeson. They

1790
01:01:42,998 --> 01:01:43,699
absolutely need to have their

1791
01:01:43,699 --> 01:01:47,299
streets read. And so this is

1792
01:01:47,302 --> 01:01:47,936
great any MADAM City clerk is

1793
01:01:47,936 --> 01:01:50,936
there anyone who wants to

1794
01:01:52,307 --> 01:01:52,975

1796
01:01:53,775 --> 01:01:54,475

have a resolution So do I hear

1802
01:02:06,255 --> 01:02:09,855
a motion in a manner? Yes,

1803
01:02:16,832 --> 01:02:17,533
going to have a motion. Most

1804
01:02:17,533 --> 01:02:19,933
emotional wasn't a resolution

1805

City Council of the city of

and a discussion. No roll call

1820

I councilmember better. I

1821
01:02:48,898 --> 01:02:50,898
councilmember Bailey, Aye.

1822
01:02:52,340 --> 01:02:53,903
Vice Mayor Walker Griffin.

1823
01:02:53,903 --> 01:02:56,338
Mayor Kelly, I thank Thank

1824
01:02:56,338 --> 01:02:57,720
you. So on to our next item,

1825
01:02:57,720 --> 01:03:00,672
which is the adoption of the

1826
01:03:01,744 --> 01:03:02,445
JUNE 2026. Sewer system

1827
01:03:02,445 --> 01:03:04,845
management plan, MR. Robert,

1828
01:03:06,150 --> 01:03:08,317
you're on Thank you, Mayor and

1829
01:03:08,317 --> 01:03:09,719
council. Thank you for your

1830
01:03:09,719 --> 01:03:10,520
time on this item. And

1831
01:03:10,520 --> 01:03:12,520
secondly, for light,

1832
01:03:14,624 --> 01:03:15,324
discussion item. I know the

1833
01:03:15,324 --> 01:03:17,727
sanitary sewer system is not

1834
01:03:17,727 --> 01:03:19,528
necessarily the most exciting.

1835
01:03:19,528 --> 01:03:21,928
Riveting, attractive item out

1836
01:03:23,232 --> 01:03:23,833
there. But it's a large

1837
01:03:23,833 --> 01:03:25,833
program about 8 million

1838
01:03:28,271 --> 01:03:28,971
dollars a year. Have about a

1839
01:03:28,971 --> 01:03:31,971
quarter of our staff working

1840
01:03:33,209 --> 01:03:33,943
on it full-time. It is very

1841
01:03:33,943 --> 01:03:37,543
much a health and safety issue

1842
01:03:37,714 --> 01:03:39,414
for the residents of Hercules.

1843
01:03:39,414 --> 01:03:40,116
Plus, given the creeks it is a

1844
01:03:40,116 --> 01:03:42,116
potential environmental risk

1845
01:03:45,454 --> 01:03:46,456
as well. Heavily regulated

1846
01:03:46,456 --> 01:03:48,992
it's on the order of about 1.2

1847
01:03:48,992 --> 01:03:51,861
million gallons per day. We

1848
01:03:51,861 --> 01:03:52,995
started going through the

1849
01:03:52,995 --> 01:03:54,197
system. So it's a, you know,

1850
01:03:54,197 --> 01:03:54,931
court program. We haven't, of

1851
01:03:54,931 --> 01:03:57,331
course, in a resource

1852
01:03:59,340 --> 01:03:59,936
constrained agency. It's

1853
01:03:59,936 --> 01:04:00,670
always competing against other

1854
01:04:00,670 --> 01:04:02,405
priorities in. This is the one

1855
01:04:02,405 --> 01:04:03,720
that staff knows. We have to

1856
01:04:03,720 --> 01:04:05,472
be really village vigilant

1857
01:04:08,878 --> 01:04:09,546
about. For tonight's report.

1858
01:04:09,546 --> 01:04:12,546
Her presentation will be by

1859
01:04:15,180 --> 01:04:18,210
Chris Morris. So Chris is are

1860
01:04:18,210 --> 01:04:18,955
relatively new maintenance and

1861
01:04:18,955 --> 01:04:20,955
operations superintendent. He

1862
01:04:21,191 --> 01:04:22,959
also has the dubious title of

1863
01:04:22,959 --> 01:04:24,861
the legally responsible

1864
01:04:24,861 --> 01:04:26,896
official for the Senators for

1865
01:04:26,896 --> 01:04:27,597
management plan and then with

1866
01:04:27,597 --> 01:04:31,100
him tonight is and Gertz from

1867
01:04:31,100 --> 01:04:32,100
West Coast. To help out with

1868
01:04:32,100 --> 01:04:35,100
any questions that MAY be

1869
01:04:36,472 --> 01:04:38,408
needed. So with that, Chris.

1870
01:04:38,408 --> 01:04:40,377
Mrs the evening Mayor Council

1871
01:04:40,377 --> 01:04:41,411
and the staff and the

1872
01:04:41,411 --> 01:04:44,470
community. I'm here to talk a

1873
01:04:44,470 --> 01:04:45,449
little bit out. The sewer

1874
01:04:45,449 --> 01:04:47,551
system. The state requires us

1875
01:04:47,551 --> 01:04:49,719
to have this management plan

1876
01:04:49,719 --> 01:04:51,719
requires all municipalities

1877
01:04:51,821 --> 01:04:52,454
that run a sewer system to

1878
01:04:52,454 --> 01:04:53,123
have a management plan in

1879
01:04:53,123 --> 01:04:54,925
place. It's one of the many

1880
01:04:54,925 --> 01:04:57,325
requirements that the state.

1881
01:04:59,396 --> 01:05:00,497
Hands down to us. One of the

1882
01:05:00,497 --> 01:05:02,866
things is we need keep it

1883
01:05:02,866 --> 01:05:03,500
updated every 6 years. That's

1884
01:05:03,500 --> 01:05:05,900
a requirement and audited

1885
01:05:08,205 --> 01:05:08,872
every 3 years. To keep things

1886
01:05:08,872 --> 01:05:10,841
updated. Ideally, they like

1887
01:05:10,841 --> 01:05:13,241
things even updated as

1888
01:05:13,343 --> 01:05:15,743
frequently as anything changes

1889
01:05:16,450 --> 01:05:18,414
policies or procedures. They

1890
01:05:18,414 --> 01:05:20,830
like the state being like to

1891
01:05:20,830 --> 01:05:23,830
see it and active document

1892
01:05:23,954 --> 01:05:26,123
even have to log. Any changes.

1893
01:05:26,123 --> 01:05:27,724
Also has been documented. It's

1894
01:05:27,724 --> 01:05:31,324
quite a documented its one of

1895
01:05:32,829 --> 01:05:33,529
the bigger requirements of of

1896
01:05:33,529 --> 01:05:35,699
all the things the state asks

1897
01:05:35,699 --> 01:05:36,366
of us as a sewer system being

1898
01:05:36,366 --> 01:05:39,803
that the sewer system is a

1899
01:05:39,803 --> 01:05:42,473
huge. Public health and safety

1900
01:05:42,473 --> 01:05:46,730
issue. It's often. Kind of the

1901
01:05:46,777 --> 01:05:47,377
last thing thought of. The

1902
01:05:47,377 --> 01:05:48,780
streets, you know, our

1903
01:05:48,780 --> 01:05:50,470
streets, parks, lot of things

1904
01:05:50,470 --> 01:05:50,681
get the attention by the

1905
01:05:50,681 --> 01:05:53,681
residents. But this is a

1906
01:05:53,784 --> 01:05:56,184
hidden. Hidden importance that

1907
01:05:57,688 --> 01:05:58,254
that needs to happen. There's

1908
01:05:58,254 --> 01:06:01,254
goals that we need to

1909
01:06:01,425 --> 01:06:03,825
maintain. Maintain the sewer

1910
01:06:08,265 --> 01:06:10,670
system. Minimizing spills.

1911
01:06:10,670 --> 01:06:12,269
Ensuring capacity that we can

1912
01:06:12,269 --> 01:06:14,669
meet expansion and the

1913
01:06:16,307 --> 01:06:17,508
wastewater flows. We need to

1914
01:06:17,508 --> 01:06:20,770
have a these are just some of

1915
01:06:20,770 --> 01:06:21,450
the goals. But there's there's

1916
01:06:21,450 --> 01:06:23,445
many goals, including response

1917
01:06:23,848 --> 01:06:26,848
plan for sewer spills and

1918
01:06:32,289 --> 01:06:34,580
response procedures in place.

1919
01:06:34,580 --> 01:06:36,493
Yes, and we have 62 miles of

1920
01:06:36,493 --> 01:06:37,928
pipe. They're responsible

1921
01:06:37,928 --> 01:06:38,629
responsible for 6 lift

1922
01:06:38,629 --> 01:06:41,629
stations that convey that to

1923
01:06:42,000 --> 01:06:42,700
panel. And I think it was

1924
01:06:42,700 --> 01:06:44,700
mentioned 1.2 million gallons

1925
01:06:47,471 --> 01:06:49,774
per day. Average number of

1926
01:06:49,774 --> 01:06:50,541
spills per 100 miles over the

1927
01:06:50,541 --> 01:06:52,410
could 1.3, we had one small

1928
01:06:52,410 --> 01:06:55,813
spill this year so far. We're

1929
01:06:55,813 --> 01:06:58,213
pretty good. Begin being

1930
01:06:59,150 --> 01:07:01,150
proactive. Monitoring the

1931
01:07:02,887 --> 01:07:03,554
system as much as we can to.

1932
01:07:03,554 --> 01:07:04,254
And my spills because bills

1933
01:07:04,254 --> 01:07:05,122
are the most important thing.

1934
01:07:05,122 --> 01:07:08,722
That is the most. Looked at

1935
01:07:09,594 --> 01:07:10,294
thing. We have to document so

1936
01:07:10,294 --> 01:07:13,894
much and report all of our

1937
01:07:18,436 --> 01:07:22,360
spills to the state. And hot

1938
01:07:23,141 --> 01:07:23,841
spots. This isn't it's normal

1939
01:07:23,841 --> 01:07:24,509
for every news value have hot

1940
01:07:24,509 --> 01:07:26,177
spots. It just shows we're

1941
01:07:26,177 --> 01:07:29,177
being proactive. There's a Liz

1942
01:07:29,280 --> 01:07:29,980
there. But every meet

1943
01:07:29,980 --> 01:07:32,380
municipality and sewer system

1944
01:07:32,383 --> 01:07:35,983
agency. Has hot spots in their

1945
01:07:36,754 --> 01:07:37,388
system. There are areas where

1946
01:07:37,388 --> 01:07:39,788
they monitor their issues

1947
01:07:41,326 --> 01:07:43,828
with. Age pipes that need to

1948
01:07:43,828 --> 01:07:46,664
be replaced. The there more

1949
01:07:46,664 --> 01:07:49,640
proactive in monitoring the

1950
01:07:51,336 --> 01:07:52,300
spots and minimizing anything.

1951
01:07:52,300 --> 01:07:53,304
Affecting public health and

1952
01:07:53,304 --> 01:07:55,704
safety with spills pie

1953
01:07:59,677 --> 01:08:00,445
blockages in breaks. Every

1954
01:08:00,445 --> 01:08:01,179
every system has hot spots.

1955
01:08:01,179 --> 01:08:04,179
It's just and it's documented.

1956
01:08:05,483 --> 01:08:06,184
And we have to show this. To

1957
01:08:06,184 --> 01:08:06,952
show we're being proactive on

1958
01:08:06,952 --> 01:08:08,954
our system and then also to

1959
01:08:08,954 --> 01:08:10,955
notice areas for cip

1960
01:08:10,955 --> 01:08:13,355
improvements, areas to replace

1961
01:08:18,730 --> 01:08:20,799
damaged sections of pipe. And

1962
01:08:20,799 --> 01:08:24,236
the general order is is what

1963
01:08:24,236 --> 01:08:27,236
the state calls sewer system

1964
01:08:27,739 --> 01:08:28,406
requirements. It's it's a big

1965
01:08:28,406 --> 01:08:29,207
document that tells us what

1966
01:08:29,207 --> 01:08:32,807
we're required to do for the

1967
01:08:33,110 --> 01:08:36,110
state. They updated that in

1968
01:08:37,449 --> 01:08:39,418
2022. A lot of minor things

1969
01:08:39,418 --> 01:08:41,418
like spill categories.

1970
01:08:43,755 --> 01:08:45,958
Terminology was changed this

1971
01:08:45,958 --> 01:08:46,591
we also had to update our has

1972
01:08:46,591 --> 01:08:49,591
this mp to reflect their

1973
01:08:50,996 --> 01:08:51,963
changes. And also because

1974
01:08:51,963 --> 01:08:54,963
every 6 years due to be

1975
01:08:55,334 --> 01:08:56,340
updated regardless. That

1976
01:08:56,340 --> 01:08:57,402
that's one of the things they

1977
01:08:57,402 --> 01:09:00,171
change used to be 5 years.

1978
01:09:00,171 --> 01:09:00,906
Death date change it to 6

1979
01:09:00,906 --> 01:09:03,876
years. 2 years used to be

1980
01:09:03,876 --> 01:09:04,543
audited. Now it's 3 years. It

1981
01:09:04,543 --> 01:09:06,511
made it a little easier for

1982
01:09:06,511 --> 01:09:09,511
us. You know. Because there's

1983
01:09:18,556 --> 01:09:19,825
a lot of requirements. Soucy

1984
01:09:19,825 --> 01:09:22,825
weeks is where we report.

1985
01:09:23,610 --> 01:09:25,230
We're I report all of the

1986
01:09:25,230 --> 01:09:26,799
sewer activities spills

1987
01:09:26,799 --> 01:09:30,399
reports and this system p will

1988
01:09:32,204 --> 01:09:33,505
be uploaded 2 their website or

1989
01:09:33,505 --> 01:09:34,506
to their database and also

1990
01:09:34,506 --> 01:09:35,140
will be on is one of the

1991
01:09:35,140 --> 01:09:37,540
requirements is as beyond

1992
01:09:39,111 --> 01:09:42,281
posted on our website as well.

1993
01:09:42,281 --> 01:09:43,115
And that will happen once

1994
01:09:43,115 --> 01:09:44,116
adoption iii's legal risks

1995
01:09:44,116 --> 01:09:46,116
legally responsible official

1996
01:09:46,852 --> 01:09:49,355
is. There's also day to submit

1997
01:09:49,355 --> 01:09:51,357
yours. That's for. Data

1998
01:09:51,357 --> 01:09:53,292
centers are the steps below

1999
01:09:53,292 --> 01:09:54,226
the yellow rose. What they

2000
01:09:54,226 --> 01:09:57,226
call in terms of reporting

2001
01:09:57,563 --> 01:09:59,565
spill reports. Documenting any

2002
01:09:59,565 --> 01:10:01,167
activity, maintenance and then

2003
01:10:01,167 --> 01:10:03,567
de la rose certifies.

2004
01:10:04,570 --> 01:10:06,570
Everything. That's reported

2005
01:10:06,972 --> 01:10:08,107
and certifies reports too. See

2006
01:10:08,107 --> 01:10:11,107
what's which is the state

2007
01:10:12,978 --> 01:10:13,612
water board. And then also you

2008
01:10:13,612 --> 01:10:16,120
have the internal audits

2009
01:10:17,216 --> 01:10:19,616
conducted every 3 years. Yes,

2010
01:10:26,892 --> 01:10:29,428
next dues. Is there one? With

2011
01:10:29,428 --> 01:10:31,828
that? I recommend adoption

2012
01:10:33,399 --> 01:10:34,660
available for any questions.

2013
01:10:34,660 --> 01:10:34,800
Thank you, Kate. Thank you,

2014
01:10:34,800 --> 01:10:37,470
MR. Morris, thanks for keeping

2015
01:10:37,470 --> 01:10:38,437
an eye on this. I know this is

2016
01:10:38,437 --> 01:10:40,837
unseen, but it's terribly

2017
01:10:42,208 --> 01:10:42,942
important. Yeah, yeah. So any

2018
01:10:42,942 --> 01:10:45,342
questions here, council member

2019
01:10:46,379 --> 01:10:47,613
but arrived then comes Lee.

2020
01:10:47,613 --> 01:10:48,114
Thank you, MADAM Mayor, and

2021
01:10:48,114 --> 01:10:48,781
thank you for the

2022
01:10:48,781 --> 01:10:51,781
presentation. And this is a

2023
01:10:52,852 --> 01:10:54,860
very important are you are

2024
01:10:54,860 --> 01:10:54,753
going to service and thank

2025
01:10:54,753 --> 01:10:57,753
you, Thank you for keeping

2026
01:10:58,157 --> 01:10:59,391
eyes on these. Couple of the

2027
01:10:59,391 --> 01:11:00,492
question on one thing that you

2028
01:11:00,492 --> 01:11:02,892
just mentioned, that internal

2029
01:11:04,163 --> 01:11:05,131
audit happens every 2 years.

2030
01:11:05,131 --> 01:11:06,232
So when was the last into

2031
01:11:06,232 --> 01:11:06,899
AUGUST and then on, we haven't

2032
01:11:06,899 --> 01:11:09,899
of the internal control in

2033
01:11:10,370 --> 01:11:13,970
fleas. How we how we manage

2034
01:11:14,573 --> 01:11:15,875
And second question, even that

2035
01:11:15,875 --> 01:11:19,475
we have a new residence and

2036
01:11:19,879 --> 01:11:22,279
new developments coming. How

2037
01:11:23,160 --> 01:11:23,717
well we are prepared. I know

2038
01:11:23,717 --> 01:11:24,617
that there's impound that can

2039
01:11:24,617 --> 01:11:25,285
probably take care of that

2040
01:11:25,285 --> 01:11:28,885
Barnard. We know the out of

2041
01:11:28,955 --> 01:11:30,723
that funny sufficient enough.

2042
01:11:30,723 --> 01:11:31,958
To cover the snow. The

2043
01:11:31,958 --> 01:11:32,658
interested in what not? So can

2044
01:11:32,658 --> 01:11:36,258
you please get some light on

2045
01:11:37,163 --> 01:11:39,466
those areas? Everything. Well,

2046
01:11:39,466 --> 01:11:41,866
it internal audits don't.

2047
01:11:43,360 --> 01:11:44,404
Necessarily mean internal.

2048
01:11:44,404 --> 01:11:46,639
I've had. It's like West Coast

2049
01:11:46,639 --> 01:11:48,641
do our Mississippi right now.

2050
01:11:48,641 --> 01:11:49,943
We can either choose to do

2051
01:11:49,943 --> 01:11:50,644
in-house or have someone

2052
01:11:50,644 --> 01:11:53,446
audit. It is based on a teen

2053
01:11:53,446 --> 01:11:54,281
is basically. Making sure our

2054
01:11:54,281 --> 01:11:56,383
document complies with what

2055
01:11:56,383 --> 01:11:58,518
the state requires and is

2056
01:11:58,518 --> 01:11:59,186
updated to what art we're

2057
01:11:59,186 --> 01:12:01,586
currently doing. That's an

2058
01:12:05,358 --> 01:12:08,958
audit. I'm not sure when the

2059
01:12:09,729 --> 01:12:12,866
last audit was done. I know.

2060
01:12:12,866 --> 01:12:13,567
Psmp was 6 years ago, but I'm

2061
01:12:13,567 --> 01:12:17,767
not sure when the audit to it

2062
01:12:18,872 --> 01:12:19,740
was done. Yeah, you mentioned

2063
01:12:19,740 --> 01:12:21,174
that, you know, the internal

2064
01:12:21,174 --> 01:12:23,175
audit conducted every 3 years.

2065
01:12:23,175 --> 01:12:24,511
So means we should have if we

2066
01:12:24,511 --> 01:12:25,212
have not, it is a 19, then

2067
01:12:25,212 --> 01:12:27,414
probably there should be one

2068
01:12:27,414 --> 01:12:28,148
more internal audit in between

2069
01:12:28,148 --> 01:12:31,748
that the covid-19 and now he's

2070
01:12:36,390 --> 01:12:37,291
not. Good Council member. I So

2071
01:12:37,291 --> 01:12:40,891
to be fair, MR. Morris course

2072
01:12:41,662 --> 01:12:42,496
wasn't here back then but my

2073
01:12:42,496 --> 01:12:45,496
recollection is we could have

2074
01:12:46,980 --> 01:12:48,135
questions to internal audit

2075
01:12:48,135 --> 01:12:49,903
obviously one of the key

2076
01:12:49,903 --> 01:12:51,905
aspects of having MR. Marsh

2077
01:12:51,905 --> 01:12:53,707
here, of course, is moving

2078
01:12:53,707 --> 01:12:55,175
forward. He has the expertise

2079
01:12:55,175 --> 01:12:58,775
and we have the resources to

2080
01:12:59,513 --> 01:13:01,281
ensure compliance. Thank you

2081
01:13:01,281 --> 01:13:02,140
for information can you also

2082
01:13:02,140 --> 01:13:02,950
please, some I don't know. Can

2083
01:13:02,950 --> 01:13:05,419
answer that question. If you

2084
01:13:05,419 --> 01:13:08,355
are. So what is they know the

2085
01:13:08,355 --> 01:13:11,955
you know, the part of this,

2086
01:13:12,590 --> 01:13:12,793
you know, influx of new.

2087
01:13:12,793 --> 01:13:14,461
Housing or new development and

2088
01:13:14,461 --> 01:13:17,461
the much until the swears

2089
01:13:23,300 --> 01:13:23,937
system. In closing as make

2090
01:13:23,937 --> 01:13:25,206
sure I understand the

2091
01:13:25,206 --> 01:13:27,207
question. Question is given

2092
01:13:27,207 --> 01:13:30,207
that we haven't you. Housing

2093
01:13:33,480 --> 01:13:34,682
development coming the so how

2094
01:13:34,682 --> 01:13:37,351
we are well prepared to handle

2095
01:13:37,351 --> 01:13:40,221
the signal been folks are the

2096
01:13:40,221 --> 01:13:40,921
thanks the increased amount

2097
01:13:40,921 --> 01:13:43,757
this system. Thank you. Thank

2098
01:13:43,757 --> 01:13:44,992
you for clarifying. So we do

2099
01:13:44,992 --> 01:13:47,695
have a sanitary sewer model at

2100
01:13:47,695 --> 01:13:49,897
West U.S. Built. And we do run

2101
01:13:49,897 --> 01:13:52,297
model flows. Including at

2102
01:13:55,569 --> 01:13:56,237
build out. So we know that we

2103
01:13:56,237 --> 01:13:59,237
have along the major pipes

2104
01:13:59,740 --> 01:14:00,474
capacity. And then

2105
01:14:00,474 --> 01:14:02,474
additionally, one developments

2106
01:14:02,877 --> 01:14:04,812
come into town. We do require

2107
01:14:04,812 --> 01:14:07,212
that they do downstream

2108
01:14:08,480 --> 01:14:09,517
analysis that they can convey

2109
01:14:09,517 --> 01:14:10,117
the additional wastewater from

2110
01:14:10,117 --> 01:14:12,320
the development in the

2111
01:14:12,320 --> 01:14:15,320
localized system. And then, of

2112
01:14:15,423 --> 01:14:18,423
course, and great they would

2113
01:14:19,590 --> 01:14:19,760
need to do themselves or

2114
01:14:19,760 --> 01:14:22,160
funding through a connection

2115
01:14:22,764 --> 01:14:23,464
fee make sure that occurs so

2116
01:14:23,464 --> 01:14:24,165
weak. So so in a nutshell, we

2117
01:14:24,165 --> 01:14:27,765
do have entire model for the

2118
01:14:27,835 --> 01:14:28,569
system. At build out and then

2119
01:14:28,569 --> 01:14:30,771
have for each individual case.

2120
01:14:30,771 --> 01:14:32,373
We look at it as well to make

2121
01:14:32,373 --> 01:14:33,107
sure and immediate facility

2122
01:14:33,107 --> 01:14:36,107
that the city that there's

2123
01:14:37,211 --> 01:14:39,211
adequate facilities. Remember,

2124
01:14:42,717 --> 01:14:45,520
Grimsley? This at the top of

2125
01:14:45,520 --> 01:14:46,120
your presentation. You

2126
01:14:46,120 --> 01:14:48,520
mentioned you spoke to

2127
01:14:49,557 --> 01:14:52,360
speaking about spills. And so

2128
01:14:52,360 --> 01:14:54,562
just to you're talking

2129
01:14:54,562 --> 01:14:56,640
partially treated or untreated

2130
01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:56,798
wastewater. Are there any

2131
01:14:56,798 --> 01:15:00,268
other type of spills that kind

2132
01:15:00,268 --> 01:15:00,935
of fall under that umbrella?

2133
01:15:00,935 --> 01:15:03,571
No, it in the sewer system

2134
01:15:03,571 --> 01:15:04,239
wastewater. It's all its

2135
01:15:04,239 --> 01:15:07,800
wastewater hits. None of it

2136
01:15:07,800 --> 01:15:08,376
can leave the system. And if

2137
01:15:08,376 --> 01:15:09,310
any of it does, we have to be

2138
01:15:09,310 --> 01:15:12,310
proactive in show. We're doing

2139
01:15:12,947 --> 01:15:14,616
everything to. Captured.

2140
01:15:14,616 --> 01:15:17,616
Anything that left the system

2141
01:15:18,152 --> 01:15:18,887
basically. Storm water stuff

2142
01:15:18,887 --> 01:15:21,887
is different. It's storm water

2143
01:15:22,656 --> 01:15:23,391
It's separate systems.

2144
01:15:23,391 --> 01:15:26,391
Wastewater has to be contained

2145
01:15:27,896 --> 01:15:30,896
within. Within the system. And

2146
01:15:32,600 --> 01:15:34,502
then. Understand that the snp

2147
01:15:34,502 --> 01:15:35,170
has to be updated formally

2148
01:15:35,170 --> 01:15:37,172
every 6 years. But you also

2149
01:15:37,172 --> 01:15:37,839
indicated that it's intended

2150
01:15:37,839 --> 01:15:40,839
the like a living document

2151
01:15:41,575 --> 01:15:42,410
words. Constantly the

2152
01:15:42,410 --> 01:15:44,810
information is being poured

2153
01:15:46,781 --> 01:15:47,482
into it. So we're gathering

2154
01:15:47,482 --> 01:15:50,482
all of the information about

2155
01:15:51,652 --> 01:15:54,422
spills That will eventually go

2156
01:15:54,422 --> 01:15:57,920
into the formal revision of

2157
01:15:57,920 --> 01:15:57,792
the of the snp. How are we

2158
01:15:57,792 --> 01:15:59,495
storing capturing and storing

2159
01:15:59,495 --> 01:16:01,495
that information? Record

2160
01:16:05,667 --> 01:16:06,734
keeping. On. For me. I keep

2161
01:16:06,734 --> 01:16:08,704
there's record keeping. But

2162
01:16:08,704 --> 01:16:09,772
there's also record keeping on

2163
01:16:09,772 --> 01:16:12,107
the state water board level

2164
01:16:12,107 --> 01:16:12,774
when I refer to see weeks.

2165
01:16:12,774 --> 01:16:14,209
It's California integrated

2166
01:16:14,209 --> 01:16:15,776
water quality system. And

2167
01:16:15,776 --> 01:16:18,176
that's all the documentation

2168
01:16:19,380 --> 01:16:20,820
goes in there as well. All

2169
01:16:20,820 --> 01:16:23,217
spill reports I would have to

2170
01:16:23,217 --> 01:16:24,180
record keeping. On spills or

2171
01:16:24,180 --> 01:16:26,418
really any activity that's

2172
01:16:26,889 --> 01:16:28,457
required to document. But then

2173
01:16:28,457 --> 01:16:30,359
also it gets uploaded to the

2174
01:16:30,359 --> 01:16:33,359
state as well. Yeah, thank

2175
01:16:35,630 --> 01:16:35,731
you. The other questions,

2176
01:16:35,731 --> 01:16:38,131
customer Bailey. Thank you,

2177
01:16:38,700 --> 01:16:39,401
MADAM Mayor. We do pretty good

2178
01:16:39,401 --> 01:16:42,771
times. I want every page one

2179
01:16:42,771 --> 01:16:46,371
by one. Please. Yes, we'll be

2180
01:16:46,675 --> 01:16:47,275
here til midnight. My question

2181
01:16:47,275 --> 01:16:47,976
for something report. I

2182
01:16:47,976 --> 01:16:50,279
appreciate my questions. Just

2183
01:16:50,279 --> 01:16:51,120
Maury of interest just because

2184
01:16:51,120 --> 01:16:54,450
interest but the present. So a

2185
01:16:54,450 --> 01:16:55,750
lift station. Fails because we

2186
01:16:55,750 --> 01:16:57,520
have, I think can identify

2187
01:16:57,520 --> 01:16:57,753
them this residents because

2188
01:16:57,753 --> 01:16:59,121
issues the generator, yellow

2189
01:16:59,121 --> 01:17:01,890
generator, social next to

2190
01:17:01,890 --> 01:17:02,657
them. So by by waterfront,

2191
01:17:02,657 --> 01:17:04,627
there's a janitor there. I

2192
01:17:04,627 --> 01:17:07,563
thought that was offline. I

2193
01:17:07,563 --> 01:17:08,497
mean, that recall that

2194
01:17:08,497 --> 01:17:09,531
correctly. But how the after

2195
01:17:09,531 --> 01:17:10,165
business hours that we have a

2196
01:17:10,165 --> 01:17:13,165
list ation that having a

2197
01:17:14,170 --> 01:17:15,370
problem. Alarms that will

2198
01:17:15,370 --> 01:17:16,505
trigger there's redundancies

2199
01:17:16,505 --> 01:17:20,105
to for these alarms to get

2200
01:17:22,845 --> 01:17:23,579
notified. So anytime 24 7.

2201
01:17:23,579 --> 01:17:25,481
Stand by is notified mean this

2202
01:17:25,481 --> 01:17:29,810
is notified in they go out

2203
01:17:29,118 --> 01:17:30,419
there immediately and see you

2204
01:17:30,419 --> 01:17:31,353
MAY be thinking a problem.

2205
01:17:31,353 --> 01:17:31,987
There is lift station there.

2206
01:17:31,987 --> 01:17:33,689
Prominent. That's that's

2207
01:17:33,689 --> 01:17:36,890
active. It's small. It's

2208
01:17:39,928 --> 01:17:42,328
active. And then. Usually.

2209
01:17:43,599 --> 01:17:46,599
Spills or art. Really. Affect

2210
01:17:47,102 --> 01:17:48,905
residents in terms of. If a

2211
01:17:48,905 --> 01:17:51,905
pump station fails, it's going

2212
01:17:52,975 --> 01:17:53,676
to overflow there. All the

2213
01:17:53,676 --> 01:17:54,911
residents really it's they're

2214
01:17:54,911 --> 01:17:56,212
probably not going to notice

2215
01:17:56,212 --> 01:17:57,480
anything. It's still all the

2216
01:17:57,480 --> 01:17:59,150
stuff is still flowing to

2217
01:17:59,150 --> 01:17:59,716
that. We start the lift

2218
01:17:59,716 --> 01:18:01,317
station. It's just coming out

2219
01:18:01,317 --> 01:18:04,219
of the manhole by the looks

2220
01:18:04,219 --> 01:18:04,887
station. That's it's

2221
01:18:04,887 --> 01:18:07,887
important. We have not have

2222
01:18:11,294 --> 01:18:12,361
happened. Thank you. If I MAY

2223
01:18:12,361 --> 01:18:15,961
just add so stations have wet

2224
01:18:18,968 --> 01:18:20,670
wells, which is. Like it well.

2225
01:18:20,670 --> 01:18:21,370
They can handle a considerable

2226
01:18:21,370 --> 01:18:24,370
amount of time before there's

2227
01:18:24,374 --> 01:18:25,341
an overflow. So we should be

2228
01:18:25,341 --> 01:18:27,741
noticed long before there's

2229
01:18:29,712 --> 01:18:30,413
any risk. They also have

2230
01:18:30,413 --> 01:18:33,413
redundancy and that they have

2231
01:18:33,549 --> 01:18:34,284
a second pump. They both don't

2232
01:18:34,284 --> 01:18:35,584
need to be pumping at the same

2233
01:18:35,584 --> 01:18:39,184
time. So one pump brakes they

2234
01:18:41,124 --> 01:18:41,958
can always use a second So we

2235
01:18:41,958 --> 01:18:43,760
have a lot of identity is in

2236
01:18:43,760 --> 01:18:44,727
place to ensure that it

2237
01:18:44,727 --> 01:18:45,394
doesn't happen. Thank, you

2238
01:18:45,394 --> 01:18:47,797
know, was it going as we do

2239
01:18:47,797 --> 01:18:48,964
have systems that protect our

2240
01:18:48,964 --> 01:18:49,699
residents from this health and

2241
01:18:49,699 --> 01:18:51,801
safety issue. If should occur,

2242
01:18:51,801 --> 01:18:54,704
we have processes in place

2243
01:18:54,704 --> 01:18:55,537
both built litigation process

2244
01:18:55,537 --> 01:18:56,205
that so they can make awesome

2245
01:18:56,205 --> 01:18:56,873
way home and say we have a

2246
01:18:56,873 --> 01:18:59,709
problem. Can take a look at

2247
01:18:59,709 --> 01:19:00,342
it. The set or something.

2248
01:19:00,342 --> 01:19:02,645
Yeah. It's also advanced

2249
01:19:02,645 --> 01:19:03,779
warning to where it's not.

2250
01:19:03,779 --> 01:19:04,414
Alarm will trip when reaches a

2251
01:19:04,414 --> 01:19:05,981
certain level in the wet.

2252
01:19:05,981 --> 01:19:08,381
Well, they're still that's

2253
01:19:10,687 --> 01:19:11,287
plenty of time. For Even a

2254
01:19:11,287 --> 01:19:12,822
issue. It gives enough

2255
01:19:12,822 --> 01:19:14,457
response time too address the

2256
01:19:14,457 --> 01:19:17,457
issue before 8 creates a a

2257
01:19:18,361 --> 01:19:19,362
mess. Thank you. And then I

2258
01:19:19,362 --> 01:19:21,764
think as we're in cancer, I

2259
01:19:21,764 --> 01:19:22,599
know you're 10 years is not

2260
01:19:22,599 --> 01:19:25,368
history. But I think to answer

2261
01:19:25,368 --> 01:19:26,690
kuzma's by question, we did do

2262
01:19:26,690 --> 01:19:28,305
some sort of an audit because

2263
01:19:28,305 --> 01:19:29,439
we felt that we do. We're

2264
01:19:29,439 --> 01:19:30,139
going issues upstream from

2265
01:19:30,139 --> 01:19:31,374
scores. We get his truck line

2266
01:19:31,374 --> 01:19:34,374
replacement. But we know that

2267
01:19:35,412 --> 01:19:36,646
I guess from basically safely.

2268
01:19:36,646 --> 01:19:37,247
North. But going sycamore, we

2269
01:19:37,247 --> 01:19:39,516
have to do some future

2270
01:19:39,516 --> 01:19:40,116
replacements which sort of was

2271
01:19:40,116 --> 01:19:40,817
there a conscious about

2272
01:19:40,817 --> 01:19:43,817
raising rates and things like

2273
01:19:44,888 --> 01:19:46,356
that? Could you talk to? Thank

2274
01:19:46,356 --> 01:19:47,891
Thank you. Councilmember

2275
01:19:47,891 --> 01:19:49,626
Bailey. So there were 2 issues

2276
01:19:49,626 --> 01:19:50,327
with the Sycamore trunk. Mean

2277
01:19:50,327 --> 01:19:53,927
wish that on my long project

2278
01:19:55,899 --> 01:19:56,566
from. Basically on park to the

2279
01:19:56,566 --> 01:19:58,534
wastewater employer plan in

2280
01:19:58,534 --> 01:20:02,134
Pinole. First was to the pipe.

2281
01:20:02,472 --> 01:20:03,400
The second was his size. So

2282
01:20:03,400 --> 01:20:03,673
while it wasn't yet a

2283
01:20:03,673 --> 01:20:06,673
capacity, it was time to

2284
01:20:06,810 --> 01:20:07,511
replace it. And we actually

2285
01:20:07,511 --> 01:20:11,711
had that there is there is a

2286
01:20:12,490 --> 01:20:14,551
high need to it. We of size

2287
01:20:14,551 --> 01:20:15,252
the pipe based on the sewer

2288
01:20:15,252 --> 01:20:17,788
modeling and got to be a new

2289
01:20:17,788 --> 01:20:20,590
pipe as well. So that's that's

2290
01:20:20,590 --> 01:20:22,492
how we address that particular

2291
01:20:22,492 --> 01:20:23,860
issue. I think on it generally

2292
01:20:23,860 --> 01:20:24,561
is more about overflows in

2293
01:20:24,561 --> 01:20:26,596
this case. Ahead of the curve

2294
01:20:26,596 --> 01:20:27,263
on that one. Thank you very

2295
01:20:27,263 --> 01:20:29,663
much. Appreciated this all

2296
01:20:30,801 --> 01:20:33,370
happened. Any questions by

2297
01:20:33,370 --> 01:20:33,703
sir. So MISTER Mersch one

2298
01:20:33,703 --> 01:20:36,173
question you meant to these

2299
01:20:36,173 --> 01:20:39,173
hot spots here and there's

2300
01:20:40,277 --> 01:20:41,545
much red dots and all around.

2301
01:20:41,545 --> 01:20:43,914
So just your public works.

2302
01:20:43,914 --> 01:20:44,581
People go around and kind of

2303
01:20:44,581 --> 01:20:47,251
monitor of let you know if

2304
01:20:47,251 --> 01:20:49,651
they see something or

2305
01:20:49,920 --> 01:20:50,621
generally happens yet, though

2306
01:20:50,621 --> 01:20:53,621
there those are all manholes.

2307
01:20:54,225 --> 01:20:55,693
They'll go. They'll go check

2308
01:20:55,693 --> 01:20:57,394
them at, you know, quarterly 6

2309
01:20:57,394 --> 01:21:00,994
month and based on what they

2310
01:21:02,333 --> 01:21:03,670
see visually down in there.

2311
01:21:03,670 --> 01:21:03,801
Will determine if the crew has

2312
01:21:03,801 --> 01:21:06,403
to come out and clean the line

2313
01:21:06,403 --> 01:21:07,471
or usually it to be cleaned

2314
01:21:07,471 --> 01:21:08,305
its full of, you know, could

2315
01:21:08,305 --> 01:21:09,273
be routes. There's a lot of

2316
01:21:09,273 --> 01:21:11,442
stuff that, but, you it's in

2317
01:21:11,442 --> 01:21:15,420
there and then. The crew would

2318
01:21:16,980 --> 01:21:17,781
come out. Do whatever work

2319
01:21:17,781 --> 01:21:18,581
that needs to happen and then

2320
01:21:18,581 --> 01:21:19,250
also determine if it's

2321
01:21:19,250 --> 01:21:21,250
structural failure failure

2322
01:21:22,886 --> 01:21:23,621
where repairs need to be done.

2323
01:21:23,621 --> 01:21:24,522
Okay. So you're monitoring all

2324
01:21:24,522 --> 01:21:28,122

01:21:28,359 --> 01:21:30,161

01:25:19,659 --> 01:25:22,659
incident and them. But e-mail.

2428
01:25:23,963 --> 01:25:24,830
So I was following up with,

2429
01:25:24,830 --> 01:25:25,531
you know, the staff. I think

2430
01:25:25,531 --> 01:25:28,167
city manager and I also had a

2431
01:25:28,167 --> 01:25:31,167
chance to talk to. School

2432
01:25:32,104 --> 01:25:35,704
board of trustees I think this

2433
01:25:36,976 --> 01:25:37,743
is a more. Letter to force

2434
01:25:37,743 --> 01:25:40,743
that will leave from cities

2435
01:25:42,548 --> 01:25:43,582
are the. Police department,

2436
01:25:43,582 --> 01:25:45,384
but also from the school

2437
01:25:45,384 --> 01:25:47,384
administration divorce as

2438
01:25:49,621 --> 01:25:51,557
well. And the the board of

2439
01:25:51,557 --> 01:25:52,291
trustees. So I think our step

2440
01:25:52,291 --> 01:25:54,694
social work with them and that

2441
01:25:54,694 --> 01:25:55,327
we are trying to find that

2442
01:25:55,327 --> 01:25:57,330
somewhat somebody I think

2443
01:25:57,330 --> 01:25:58,531
that's thing I wanted to share

2444
01:25:58,531 --> 01:25:59,632
with them. We just want to

2445
01:25:59,632 --> 01:26:00,900
make sure that, know, we are

2446
01:26:00,900 --> 01:26:03,300
hearing the concern residents

2447
01:26:05,380 --> 01:26:06,720
that is some ballad. And I

2448
01:26:06,720 --> 01:26:06,773
think I share my thoughts and

2449
01:26:06,773 --> 01:26:09,676
then us here, the big church

2450
01:26:09,676 --> 01:26:10,376
with city manager as well. So

2451
01:26:10,376 --> 01:26:11,343
we are taking their projects

2452
01:26:11,343 --> 01:26:14,343
and time that's what I

2453
01:26:14,547 --> 01:26:15,115
mentioned. That part. Thank

2454
01:26:15,115 --> 01:26:17,515
you. Okay. Thank you.

2455
01:26:18,184 --> 01:26:20,184

We're going back AUGUST. The

2459
01:26:25,191 --> 01:26:28,495
13th item to think of anything

2460
01:26:28,495 --> 01:26:30,296
cover that were discussed

2461
01:26:30,296 --> 01:26:31,731
there. And I want to thank

2462
01:26:31,731 --> 01:26:32,598
staff public works. We've

2463
01:26:32,598 --> 01:26:36,169
working for I think years with

2464
01:26:36,169 --> 01:26:38,171
an s on stop signs and I John

2465
01:26:38,171 --> 01:26:40,720
Muir Parkway as well as on

2466
01:26:40,720 --> 01:26:41,908
where front Meats General

2467
01:26:41,908 --> 01:26:42,642
Parkway. So we've got some

2468
01:26:42,642 --> 01:26:43,343
additional stop signs that was

2469
01:26:43,343 --> 01:26:44,440
great signage out announcing

2470
01:26:44,440 --> 01:26:45,979
the coming of the stop signs.

2471
01:26:45,979 --> 01:26:47,848
Flags out there saying the

2472
01:26:47,848 --> 01:26:50,750
pull of the flag, there is a

2473
01:26:50,750 --> 01:26:51,384
stop sign. I was I do. I

2474
01:26:51,384 --> 01:26:52,986
walked that street almost

2475
01:26:52,986 --> 01:26:55,386
daily. We had police

2476
01:26:57,220 --> 01:26:58,258
enforcement because on Friday

2477
01:26:58,258 --> 01:26:59,326
and Thursday on markdown

2478
01:26:59,326 --> 01:27:00,193
today, I had pick suv was

2479
01:27:00,193 --> 01:27:00,794
parked over there. So just

2480
01:27:00,794 --> 01:27:03,794
read where next for the

2481
01:27:04,131 --> 01:27:04,864
community sessions there. I

2482
01:27:04,864 --> 01:27:05,432
talked to the PRESIDENT From

2483
01:27:05,432 --> 01:27:07,767
the H.O.A. From that

2484
01:27:07,767 --> 01:27:08,835
community's your point and

2485
01:27:08,835 --> 01:27:09,836
they were ecstatic and

2486
01:27:09,836 --> 01:27:11,838
excited. They've been working

2487
01:27:11,838 --> 01:27:13,907
lobbying for this for a long

2488
01:27:13,907 --> 01:27:14,574
time. So there's more to come.

2489
01:27:14,574 --> 01:27:16,977
We've the council set aside

2490
01:27:16,977 --> 01:27:17,644
some funds for some traffic

2491
01:27:17,644 --> 01:27:20,644
the next street. So looking

2492
01:27:21,148 --> 01:27:22,316
forward watching it come to

2493
01:27:22,316 --> 01:27:22,950
full fruition. I also met with

2494
01:27:22,950 --> 01:27:25,853
a swimmer police staff to

2495
01:27:25,853 --> 01:27:27,200
discuss flock cameras in our

2496
01:27:27,200 --> 01:27:27,720
community. There's been lots

2497
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:31,290
of talk of that in the past

2498
01:27:31,290 --> 01:27:31,925
couple of months. I think

2499
01:27:31,925 --> 01:27:33,126
internally we've had some

2500
01:27:33,126 --> 01:27:36,126
battles months of the cameras

2501
01:27:37,640 --> 01:27:38,331
from residents perspectives.

2502
01:27:38,331 --> 01:27:40,331
There's been increased

2503
01:27:40,367 --> 01:27:41,100
visibility of those cameras

2504
01:27:41,100 --> 01:27:41,835
will be learned in this public

2505
01:27:41,835 --> 01:27:44,400
information. Our website is we

2506
01:27:44,400 --> 01:27:44,704
have. Small number of cameras

2507
01:27:44,704 --> 01:27:46,206
in town. You can actually see

2508
01:27:46,206 --> 01:27:47,908
a list of those streets. You

2509
01:27:47,908 --> 01:27:50,100
can see where the data is

2510
01:27:50,100 --> 01:27:50,677
shared with. It's not being

2511
01:27:50,677 --> 01:27:51,378
shared with ice is what was

2512
01:27:51,378 --> 01:27:53,447
communicated to me. It's also

2513
01:27:53,447 --> 01:27:54,648
it's published. Are website

2514
01:27:54,648 --> 01:27:56,160
but just looking for how we

2515
01:27:56,160 --> 01:27:58,180
navigate this this challenge,

2516
01:27:58,180 --> 01:27:59,887
this company, I think wasn't

2517
01:27:59,887 --> 01:28:00,587
it is my opinion. They MAY

2518
01:28:00,587 --> 01:28:02,690
been careful as it could have

2519
01:28:02,690 --> 01:28:03,290
been with people's data. And

2520
01:28:03,290 --> 01:28:04,925
so I think there's some

2521
01:28:04,925 --> 01:28:05,659
challenges for them. And

2522
01:28:05,659 --> 01:28:07,561
there's lots of articles about

2523
01:28:07,561 --> 01:28:08,329
what's going on there. Anyone

2524
01:28:08,329 --> 01:28:11,929
wanting to see if your state

2525
01:28:12,650 --> 01:28:12,967
has been used can go to usa

2526
01:28:12,967 --> 01:28:13,601
today. There's a cool article

2527
01:28:13,601 --> 01:28:16,601
you can just putting but

2528
01:28:16,804 --> 01:28:17,504
number, no show if it's been

2529
01:28:17,504 --> 01:28:18,439
anything that's been publicly

2530
01:28:18,439 --> 01:28:19,106
made aware from police

2531
01:28:19,106 --> 01:28:20,140
agencies. That was about 2

2532
01:28:20,140 --> 01:28:21,375
weeks ago. I think they're a

2533
01:28:21,375 --> 01:28:23,978
came out. So folks that that's

2534
01:28:23,978 --> 01:28:24,812
been a high issue for us here

2535
01:28:24,812 --> 01:28:27,470
in town. And I got had just

2536
01:28:27,470 --> 01:28:29,447
the business roundtable with

2537
01:28:29,917 --> 01:28:32,317
the city manager, people

2538
01:28:33,554 --> 01:28:34,288
attended lots of state agents

2539
01:28:34,288 --> 01:28:37,325
are in town as well as some of

2540
01:28:37,325 --> 01:28:37,958
our small business businesses,

2541
01:28:37,958 --> 01:28:38,625
restaurants were there as

2542
01:28:38,625 --> 01:28:42,530
well. So a good time had by

2543
01:28:42,530 --> 01:28:43,931

01:28:51,138 --> 01:28:52,239
decided to rain which was

2550
01:28:52,239 --> 01:28:52,807
really crazy. Also to the car

2552
01:28:54,175 --> 01:28:56,575

2554
01:28:58,613 --> 01:29:00,810

Apollo something basically

2569
01:29:22,136 --> 01:29:23,300
like how cities have been

2570
01:29:23,300 --> 01:29:23,571

01:29:26,507 --> 01:29:29,110
to try to mitigate that and

2574
01:29:29,110 --> 01:29:31,144

2668
01:32:19,347 --> 01:32:21,650
too early to start talking

2669
01:32:21,650 --> 01:32:23,919
about this because this is a

2670
01:32:23,919 --> 01:32:25,554
big event. We started this

2671
01:32:25,554 --> 01:32:27,890
event about 9 years ago. We

2672
01:32:27,890 --> 01:32:27,789
had 75 kids that came through

2673
01:32:27,789 --> 01:32:28,524
the first year. You're trying

2674
01:32:28,524 --> 01:32:29,224
to figure out what we're going

2675
01:32:29,224 --> 01:32:32,228
to do and how we're going to

2676
01:32:32,228 --> 01:32:34,196
do it. Last several years

2677
01:32:34,196 --> 01:32:34,997
we've had 1200 to 1500 kids

2678
01:32:34,997 --> 01:32:35,698
come through in a 3 hour

2679
01:32:35,698 --> 01:32:39,201
period. It is quite the event

2680
01:32:39,201 --> 01:32:40,469
here in Hercules. We are at

2681
01:32:40,469 --> 01:32:42,710
this point accepting

2682
01:32:42,710 --> 01:32:43,406
applications for vehicles to

2683
01:32:43,406 --> 01:32:45,841
be decorated. So if anybody

2684
01:32:45,841 --> 01:32:46,509
would like to partake in the

2685
01:32:46,509 --> 01:32:49,244
event we would love to have

2686
01:32:49,244 --> 01:32:49,912

2687
01:32:49,912 --> 01:32:52,214

2688
01:32:52,214 --> 01:32:53,582

one one park project update.

2697
01:33:10,199 --> 01:33:13,199
I'd like to just quickly

2698
01:33:13,703 --> 01:33:15,703
mention Shoreline Park

2699
01:33:16,873 --> 01:33:18,141

2700
01:33:18,141 --> 01:33:19,709
the 14th will be starting to

2701
01:33:19,709 --> 01:33:23,613
work on poor in place or pip

2702
01:33:23,613 --> 01:33:24,580
service So they'll be some

2703
01:33:24,580 --> 01:33:25,615

2704
01:33:25,615 --> 01:33:27,830
square feet and replacement of

2705
01:33:27,830 --> 01:33:28,117
that. And then there are few

2706
01:33:28,117 --> 01:33:31,717
parts that have been an order

2707
01:33:31,754 --> 01:33:33,756
that been back ordered there

2708
01:33:33,756 --> 01:33:34,590
still not here yet, but we

2709
01:33:34,590 --> 01:33:35,225
anticipate them soon. Since we

2710
01:33:35,225 --> 01:33:37,930
get them Putin and I know

2711
01:33:37,930 --> 01:33:40,930
public works can be doing

2712
01:33:40,262 --> 01:33:42,232
that. So thank you to public

2713
01:33:42,232 --> 01:33:42,932
works for that. Obviously the

2714
01:33:42,932 --> 01:33:43,633
bathrooms of Sterling Park of

2715
01:33:43,633 --> 01:33:46,633
our even painted courtesy of

2716
01:33:46,770 --> 01:33:49,770
your public works team. That's

2717
01:33:50,540 --> 01:33:51,241
all I have for tonight. Thank

2718
01:33:51,241 --> 01:33:53,576
you, MR. Oak and I would like

2719
01:33:53,576 --> 01:33:55,378
to say something for Public

2720
01:33:55,378 --> 01:33:57,681
Works Railroad Park near where

2721
01:33:57,681 --> 01:33:58,581
I live. There are a bunch of

2722
01:33:58,581 --> 01:34:00,283
bollards their I saw the

2723
01:34:00,283 --> 01:34:01,170
public works. People going and

2724
01:34:01,170 --> 01:34:02,652
replacing them and painting

2725
01:34:02,652 --> 01:34:04,386
them and it gives that kind of

2726
01:34:04,386 --> 01:34:05,550
a refresh. So really, really

2727
01:34:05,550 --> 01:34:07,455
appreciate that. Thank you,

2728
01:34:08,758 --> 01:34:09,859
MR. Morrison, MR. Roberts.

2729
01:34:09,859 --> 01:34:11,194
It's I think that project

2730
01:34:11,194 --> 01:34:12,729
included replacement of some

2731
01:34:12,729 --> 01:34:16,329
wood on the tables benches and

2732
01:34:16,533 --> 01:34:17,234
the table the bollards. I know

2733
01:34:17,234 --> 01:34:19,603
the public works also got out

2734
01:34:19,603 --> 01:34:20,337
there and repaired some of the

2735
01:34:20,337 --> 01:34:23,937
surface seem there a few holes

2736
01:34:24,774 --> 01:34:25,442
that had to be attended to and

2737
01:34:25,442 --> 01:34:28,878
poor in place. Sign of that

2738
01:34:28,878 --> 01:34:29,579
was done. Also. But believe

2739
01:34:29,579 --> 01:34:30,213
they're still waiting on some

2740
01:34:30,213 --> 01:34:32,983
benches to come in. And I

2741
01:34:32,983 --> 01:34:35,983
figured we'd. Capture this in

2742
01:34:37,254 --> 01:34:39,322
the meeting. Thank. Thank you

2743
01:34:39,322 --> 01:34:40,220
very much. Ok? So I'm gonna

2744
01:34:40,220 --> 01:34:43,622
bring it back to council now

2745
01:34:44,861 --> 01:34:46,280
for future agenda items. Yes,

2746
01:34:46,280 --> 01:34:46,863
Councilmember Bailey, thank

2747
01:34:46,863 --> 01:34:47,664
you, MADAM Mayor, I just want

2748
01:34:47,664 --> 01:34:49,533
to see if we can have a future

2749
01:34:49,533 --> 01:34:52,335
agenda Hopefully for next next

2750
01:34:52,335 --> 01:34:55,205
staff has the time to look at

2751
01:34:55,205 --> 01:34:56,240
amending the council rules for

2752
01:34:56,240 --> 01:34:57,741
our staff and we only have 2

2753
01:34:57,741 --> 01:34:59,242
staff members that report to

2754
01:34:59,242 --> 01:35:01,144
council. It would be if there

2755
01:35:01,144 --> 01:35:01,812
was a personal issue that

2756
01:35:01,812 --> 01:35:04,212
counselor could Razan issue

2757
01:35:05,415 --> 01:35:06,483
and had to come up as a closed

2758
01:35:06,483 --> 01:35:07,484
session item in the future. So

2759
01:35:07,484 --> 01:35:10,484
the initial discussion is just

2760
01:35:10,487 --> 01:35:11,587
how that might occur. I'd like

2761
01:35:11,587 --> 01:35:12,623
to work with the city

2762
01:35:12,623 --> 01:35:13,623
attorney's office to figure

2763
01:35:13,623 --> 01:35:14,291
that out and then bring it

2764
01:35:14,291 --> 01:35:15,225
back. You know, that first

2765
01:35:15,225 --> 01:35:15,825
phase, which just sort of

2766
01:35:15,825 --> 01:35:18,225
explaining it. And then

2767
01:35:18,628 --> 01:35:20,164
council within vote on it. To

2768
01:35:20,164 --> 01:35:21,980
make it process. But again,

2769
01:35:21,980 --> 01:35:21,732
this is just to amend or

2770
01:35:21,732 --> 01:35:23,660
rules. We have a process

2771
01:35:23,660 --> 01:35:25,369
things on the agenda. We don't

2772
01:35:25,369 --> 01:35:28,969
have a clear process for close

2773
01:35:29,239 --> 01:35:32,239
session issues. And that's all

2774
01:35:34,645 --> 01:35:35,612
right. City attorney. And if

2775
01:35:35,612 --> 01:35:36,747
that's the will of the

2776
01:35:36,747 --> 01:35:38,848
council, I want to make sure

2777
01:35:38,848 --> 01:35:39,983
that we have consensus, but

2778
01:35:39,983 --> 01:35:40,718
quick vote here. But if that's

2779
01:35:40,718 --> 01:35:44,288
the will of the council, I can

2780
01:35:44,288 --> 01:35:46,757
out. A look into bringing back

2781
01:35:46,757 --> 01:35:49,757
an item with proposed jacked

2782
01:35:49,994 --> 01:35:50,561
changes to our current rules.

2783
01:35:50,561 --> 01:35:53,230
Ok, so is the council

2784
01:35:53,230 --> 01:35:55,366
agreeable want to before? Yes,

2785
01:35:55,366 --> 01:35:57,267
we're grateful. Ok? Thank you.

2786
01:35:57,267 --> 01:36:00,267
Any other agenda items, future

2787
01:36:00,271 --> 01:36:01,371
agenda items. Yes, yes, thank

2788
01:36:01,371 --> 01:36:02,806

01:36:09,880 --> 01:36:11,649
orientation called untitled

2795
01:36:11,649 --> 01:36:12,283
futures and what they do is

2796
01:36:12,283 --> 01:36:14,683
they provide free therapy

2797
01:36:14,819 --> 01:36:15,486
sessions to kids. I would love

2798
01:36:15,486 --> 01:36:16,187
for us to have a discussion

2799
01:36:16,187 --> 01:36:19,787
about how we can partner with

2800
01:36:19,957 --> 01:36:21,910
them. So what I've been busy

2801
01:36:21,910 --> 01:36:21,793
envisioning is in about a

2802
01:36:21,793 --> 01:36:22,425
month's time or so. She comes

2803
01:36:22,425 --> 01:36:23,940
she gives a presentation

2804
01:36:23,940 --> 01:36:25,494
talking about the services

2805
01:36:26,430 --> 01:36:27,164
that you provide. It and how

2806
01:36:27,164 --> 01:36:27,864
we can incorporate that in the

2807
01:36:27,864 --> 01:36:29,867
community and then figure out

2808
01:36:29,867 --> 01:36:30,968
what that looks like for

2809
01:36:30,968 --> 01:36:33,437
implementing it. I think that

2810
01:36:33,437 --> 01:36:34,172
this is very timely given

2811
01:36:34,172 --> 01:36:36,607
everything that we see around.

2812
01:36:36,607 --> 01:36:37,507
You think the mental health.

2813
01:36:37,507 --> 01:36:38,342
Crisis that we're facing in

2814
01:36:38,342 --> 01:36:40,770
this country? I mean, both

2815
01:36:40,770 --> 01:36:42,770
political parties, mainstream

2816
01:36:42,280 --> 01:36:43,146
political parties have

2817
01:36:43,146 --> 01:36:43,881
acknowledged it. Many states

2818
01:36:43,881 --> 01:36:44,615
are under way trying to see

2819
01:36:44,615 --> 01:36:47,819
what they can do because let's

2820
01:36:47,819 --> 01:36:48,485
face it. The youth of this day

2821
01:36:48,485 --> 01:36:49,253
and age are in a different

2822
01:36:49,253 --> 01:36:51,889
world than a lot of have faced

2823
01:36:51,889 --> 01:36:54,592
before. From what its this is

2824
01:36:54,592 --> 01:36:55,326
successful. Does your phone

2825
01:36:55,326 --> 01:36:56,600
and everything else that comes

2826
01:36:56,600 --> 01:36:58,529
a day to day. And I think that

2827
01:36:58,529 --> 01:37:00,365
as a city given that we have a

2828
01:37:00,365 --> 01:37:00,964
large youth population, so

2829
01:37:00,964 --> 01:37:02,767
many people bring their

2830
01:37:02,767 --> 01:37:03,368
families to raise them here. I

2831
01:37:03,368 --> 01:37:06,368
think it'll be a great

2832
01:37:06,703 --> 01:37:07,439
opportunity for us to to make

2833
01:37:07,439 --> 01:37:08,606
a claim and say, hey, the city

2834
01:37:08,606 --> 01:37:10,375
is trying to do something

2835
01:37:10,375 --> 01:37:11,420
about would love to have her

2836
01:37:11,420 --> 01:37:12,643
come and speak and make the

2837
01:37:12,643 --> 01:37:15,713
next month or so. And would

2838
01:37:15,713 --> 01:37:17,482
love support item. So thank

2839
01:37:17,482 --> 01:37:19,483
you I think we could have her

2840
01:37:19,483 --> 01:37:21,453
come and just speaking her

2841
01:37:21,453 --> 01:37:23,988
presentation. Okay. So I mean,

2842
01:37:23,988 --> 01:37:25,189
I don't think is everyone okay

2843
01:37:25,189 --> 01:37:25,789
with that? All right. If you

2844
01:37:25,789 --> 01:37:26,458

2846
01:37:27,125 --> 01:37:29,694
with city staff and it will

2847
01:37:29,694 --> 01:37:32,694

2848
01:37:32,764 --> 01:37:34,299
