00:05:39,960 --> 00:05:41,759 pitch black so it's unsafe for kids 65 00:05:41,759 --> 00:05:44,400 adults seniors coming out of there 66 00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:49,680 they say it's Walgreens tree it's

throughout San Bruno is 70 00:05:56,160 --> 00:05:57,300 getting 71 00:05:57,300 --> 00:06:00,060 really bad you know if if you got the 72 00:06:00,060 --> 00:06:01,800 city of Sierra Moreno 73 00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,979 and you got City Hall is clean we should 74 00:06:04,979 --> 00:06:06,620 try to keep the rest of the San Bruno 75 00:06:06,620 --> 00:06:10,680 also clean just like the city hall 76 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,300 you have a San Bruno fire department 77 00:06:12,300 --> 00:06:14,520 that's the oldest Fire Department in San 78 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:16,259 Mateo County 79 00:06:16,259 --> 00:06:18,419 we got some big issues ahead of us to 80 00:06:18,419 --> 00:06:21,539 make some good decisions to move forward 81 00:06:21,539 --> 00:06:24,360 and uh you know school zones I think the 82 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:26,340 patrol needs to be you know maybe out 83 00:06:26,340 --> 00:06:27,780 there a little bit more for the kids in 84 00:06:27,780 --> 00:06:29,039 the morning 85 00:06:29,039 --> 00:06:31,800 and uh when schools let out 86 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,720 when you're seen it's a big difference 87 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,280 when you're seen and you're out there 88 00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:38,160 and the safety of a kid is a huge 89 00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:39,360 difference 90 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,419 more on the back side on crestmore Drive 91 00:06:42,419 --> 00:06:44,639 near John Muir 92 00:06:44,639 --> 00:06:46,440 you have a crosswalk coming out of the 93 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,000 school 94 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:51,360 so the Red Zone when they sprayed it 95 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,940 it's really short so when you're coming 96 00:06:53,940 --> 00:06:56,100 down crestmore kids are coming out 97 00:06:56,100 --> 00:06:57,900 there's a blind spot because the car is 98 00:06:57,900 --> 00:07:00,180 parked too close to the crosswalk 99 00:07:00,180 --> 00:07:02,819 if you open up the crosswalk I mean the 100 00:07:02,819 --> 00:07:04,199 Red Zone and spray it a little bit 101 00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:06,419 further up you won't have a blind spot 102 00:07:06,419 --> 00:07:08,460 for the kid to come through or a child 103 00:07:08,460 --> 00:07:11,759 or a senior or anybody a pedestrian to 104 00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:14,340 come through that crosswalk to be seen 105 00:07:14,340 --> 00:07:16,680 so a little bit of a 106 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,919 follow-up it's tough for people to come 107 00:07:19,919 --> 00:07:21,720 to the meetings but a lot of people are 108 00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:23,880

probably have 212 00:11:44,399 --> 00:11:47,880 about 15 000 words in this presentation 213 00:11:47,880 --> 00:11:50,339 via pictures and then talk about next 214 00:11:50,339 --> 00:11:52,560 steps and certainly take any questions 215 00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:54,959 from the city council 216 00:11:54,959 --> 00:11:57,180 so just a general note uh every time 217 00:11:57,180 --> 00:11:59,000 there's a storm we do preparation 218 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:02,100 leading up to this storm we cleaned 219 00:12:02,100 --> 00:12:04,140 trash in the community and removed 220 00:12:04,140 --> 00:12:06,240 debris we cleaned what's called catch 221 00:12:06,240 --> 00:12:10,140 basins uh the grapes and also our trash 222 00:12:10,140 --> 00:12:13,200 capture devices at our storm inlets 223 00:12:13,200 --> 00:12:15,180 across the city we know that those 224 00:12:15,180 --> 00:12:17,160 routinely accumulate with trash and we 225 00:12:17,160 --> 00:12:19,040 try and clean those out ahead of a storm 226 00:12:19,040 --> 00:12:21,899 we also ordered a number of supplies we 227 00:12:21,899 --> 00:12:24,240 monitor the weather the county activated 228 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,399 their Emergency Operations Center and so 229 00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:28,019 know that your staff here at the city of 230 00:12:28,019 --> 00:12:30,959 San Bruno was a part of all of those 231 00:12:30,959 --> 00:12:33,600 calls and we ensured that we had the 232 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:37,740 appropriate personnel on on scene 233 00:12:37,740 --> 00:12:40,260 so as We Know 234 00:12:40,260 --> 00:12:42,060 from all the news reports these were 235 00:12:42,060 --> 00:12:44,720 record storms uh the San Francisco 236 00:12:44,720 --> 00:12:47,940 region experienced a total storm surge 237 00:12:47,940 --> 00:12:50,339 uh greater than the amount of rainfall 238 00:12:50,339 --> 00:12:51,740 that has fallen 239 00:12:51,740 --> 00:12:55,260 in a five-day period in the last hundred 240 00:12:55,260 --> 00:12:57,660 years second in the last hundred years 241 00:12:57,660 --> 00:13:00,600 and so we here at the city of San Bruno 242 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:02,519 activated our Emergency Operations 243 00:13:02,519 --> 00:13:04,860 Center the city's Municipal Code gives 244 00:13:04,860 --> 00:13:06,720 the city manager the power to sign an 245 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:09,180 immediate Proclamation and so I took 246 00:13:09,180 --> 00:13:11,760 that action and we immediately activated 247 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,860 our Emergency Operations Center to 248 00:13:13,860 --> 00:13:16,920 monitor the storm the picture that is on 249 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:18,839 the screen is a picture of your San 250 00:13:18,839 --> 00:13:21,440 Bruno ELC and our team 251 00:13:21,440 --> 00:13:23,760 monitoring and actually responding to 252 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,700 incidents we also set up something that 253 00:13:26,700 --> 00:13:28,139 thankfully we did not have to activate 254 00:13:28,139 --> 00:13:30,839 which is a tep a temporary evacuation 255 00:13:30,839 --> 00:13:33,540 Center that was going to be here at the 256 00:13:33,540 --> 00:13:35,160 senior center it's a location that we 257 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,800 have that has a generator and could be a 258 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,860 warming place and a evacuation Center if 259 00:13:40,860 --> 00:13:43,440 we if we need needed and we were fully 260 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,079 prepared and even tonight we have left 261 00:13:46,079 --> 00:13:48,540 our emergency trailer out there uh 262 00:13:48,540 --> 00:13:50,220 filled filled with the necessary 263 00:13:50,220 --> 00:13:53,569 supplies should we need to activate 264 00:13:53,579 --> 00:13:57,060 so uh sandbags as we all know sandbags 265 00:13:57,060 --> 00:13:58,860 were in short supply not just in the 266 00:13:58,860 --> 00:14:01,100 county but across the bay area 267 00:14:01,100 --> 00:14:03,899 thankfully due to the work of our public 268 00:14:03,899 --> 00:14:07,740 works department we ordered pre-filled 269 00:14:07,740 --> 00:14:09,600 sandbags but like most cities we quickly 270 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:12,000 ran out I'm happy to announce that here 271 00:14:12,000 --> 00:14:13,740 in the city of San Bruno we did not have 272 00:14:13,740 --> 00:14:16,380 a shortage however like many other 273 00:14:16,380 --> 00:14:18,839 communities experienced we had about one 274 00:14:18,839 --> 00:14:21,839 day where we had a low on short on on 275 00:14:21,839 --> 00:14:24,600 sandbags and then about three o'clock we 276 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,339 were able to utilize one of our vendors 277 00:14:26,339 --> 00:14:28,500 Jericho Project that is helping us with 278 00:14:28,500 --> 00:14:31,500 our fire mitigation and within a phone 279 00:14:31,500 --> 00:14:34,320 call had about 20 people here in a 280 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:36,060 matter of 30 minutes filling sandbags 281 00:14:36,060 --> 00:14:38,160 for this community and so those pictures 282 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:41,820 there are indicative of what occurred 283 00:14:41,820 --> 00:14:44,100 over several days of the storm surge we 284 00:14:44,100 --> 00:14:47,220 had residents coming in very orderly 285 00:14:47,220 --> 00:14:50,160 picking up sandbags and we continue to 286 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:52,620 have necessary sandbags for both the 287 00:14:52,620 --> 00:14:54,839 community and protect public 288 00:14:54,839 --> 00:14:56,519 infrastructure so I just want to 289 00:14:56,519 --> 00:14:57,839 congratulate both the public works 290 00:14:57,839 --> 00:14:59,399 department and Jericho Project and thank 291 00:14:59,399 --> 00:15:01,260 you thank them for the work that they 292 00:15:01,260 --> 00:15:02,100 did 293 00:15:02,100 --> 00:15:04,440 as the community and the council knows 294 00:15:04,440 --> 00:15:06,240 we certainly pushed out a number of 295 00:15:06,240 --> 00:15:08,579 communication on frankly every medium 296 00:15:08,579 --> 00:15:10,860 that we have available just want to take 297 00:15:10,860 --> 00:15:12,300 a moment and we'll do it a little bit 298 00:15:12,300 --> 00:15:15,120 later remind the community that SMC 299 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,180 alert San Mateo County alert we really 300 00:15:18,180 --> 00:15:19,800 need you to register for that that is 301 00:15:19,800 --> 00:15:22,639 how we will notify you in an emergency 302 00:15:22,639 --> 00:15:26,220 sort of doing a reverse 9-1-1 where we 303 00:15:26,220 --> 00:15:29,160 dial every phone possible that's not a 304 00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:32,339 opt-in SMC alert is a opt-in system and 305 00:15:32,339 --> 00:15:33,600 we really need every member of the 306 00:15:33,600 --> 00:15:35,100 community to opt into that system 307 00:15:35,100 --> 00:15:37,860 because we can actually triangulate by 308 00:15:37,860 --> 00:15:39,060 neighborhood and buy the information 309 00:15:39,060 --> 00:15:42,300 that you put in when you register for 310 00:15:42,300 --> 00:15:44,699 that system and so I won't go through 311 00:15:44,699 --> 00:15:47,100 all of the announcements but just thank 312 00:15:47,100 --> 00:15:48,959 you thank you to our Communications team 313 00:15:48,959 --> 00:15:52,620 in the EOC that pushed out all of the 314 00:15:52,620 --> 00:15:54,540 various alerts to the community 315 00:15:54,540 --> 00:15:57,060 I hear the thunderstorms continuing to 316 00:15:57,060 --> 00:15:59,940 roll as we talk we set up a number of 317 00:15:59,940 --> 00:16:01,040 dedicated 318 00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:04,980 contact cell phone numbers we don't want 319 00:16:04,980 --> 00:16:08,339 everyone calling the non-emergency 9-1-1 320 00:16:08,339 --> 00:16:10,139 number for everything and so there are 321 00:16:10,139 --> 00:16:13,199 phones phone numbers to call if you see 322 00:16:13,199 --> 00:16:16,260 a flooded intersection if you need help 323 00:16:16,260 --> 00:16:19,800 with Logistics housing and so all of 324 00:16:19,800 --> 00:16:21,300 that information was pushed out on our 325 00:16:21,300 --> 00:16:23,279 website and is available to the 326 00:16:23,279 --> 00:16:25,199 community but in the event of emergency 327 00:16:25,199 --> 00:16:28,260 always call 9-1-1 and when in doubt call 328 00:16:28,260 --> 00:16:31,220 our non our non-emergency number 329 00:16:31,220 --> 00:16:33,779 also important to note in just a minute 330 00:16:33,779 --> 00:16:36,720 when I take my seat we will have one 331 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,019 Shoreline provide a presentation on 332 00:16:39,019 --> 00:16:42,120 their work with regard to the seventh 333 00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:44,660 and walnut area and other work to 334 00:16:44,660 --> 00:16:47,399 develop a long-term fix for some of the 335 00:16:47,399 --> 00:16:48,779 flooding that has occurred in our 336 00:16:48,779 --> 00:16:51,540 community just an important note that we 337 00:16:51,540 --> 00:16:53,759 worked with one Shoreline and thanks to 338 00:16:53,759 --> 00:16:55,620 some infrastructure that they've 339 00:16:55,620 --> 00:16:57,839 recently installed we were able to push 340 00:16:57,839 --> 00:16:59,699 out a proactive message to alert the 341 00:16:59,699 --> 00:17:02,519 community that we did expect flooding in 342 00:17:02,519 --> 00:17:05,459 that area and continue to issue alerts 343 00:17:05,459 --> 00:17:08,459 specific to that area 344 00:17:08,459 --> 00:17:10,860 overall our preliminary damage 345 00:17:10,860 --> 00:17:13,500 assessment has approximately well at the 346 00:17:13,500 --> 00:17:15,839 time we printed this 14 but now there's 347 00:17:15,839 --> 00:17:18,360 a list of 16 areas where we've had 348 00:17:18,360 --> 00:17:22,020 various mudslides sinkholes we had a 349 00:17:22,020 --> 00:17:25,740 street light outage of in a portion of 350 00:17:25,740 --> 00:17:27,540 our community near Whitman Way and 351 00:17:27,540 --> 00:17:31,620 Princeton after and during the storm as 352 00:17:31,620 --> 00:17:33,480 well as 353 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,020 manhole depressions and so the council 354 00:17:37,020 --> 00:17:38,760 should know that as a part of the 355 00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:41,460 emergency declaration process we do have 356 00:17:41,460 --> 00:17:43,440 a 72-hour time frame to get in a 357 00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,600 preliminary damage assessment we have 358 00:17:45,600 --> 00:17:47,340 completed that both for the storm that 359 00:17:47,340 --> 00:17:50,640 hit on New Year's Eve and this storm 360 00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:53,460 that occurred just a few days ago and so 361 00:17:53,460 --> 00:17:55,380 know that those preliminary damage 362 00:17:55,380 --> 00:17:58,620 assessments have been done however a few 363 00:17:58,620 --> 00:18:00,000 of the 364 00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:00,980 um 365 00:18:00,980 --> 00:18:04,320 impacts from the storm uh will be long 366 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:07,080 term and we will need to identify a 367 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,700 permanent fix for them and we'll go 368 00:18:08,700 --> 00:18:11,039 through a few pictures right now and 369 00:18:11,039 --> 00:18:13,020 certainly there was localized Flooding 370 00:18:13,020 --> 00:18:16,020 at areas in San Bruno that are common uh 371 00:18:16,020 --> 00:18:18,480 and and prone to flooding I think we all 372 00:18:18,480 --> 00:18:21,120 in the community know that San Bruno has 373 00:18:21,120 --> 00:18:24,419 a deficient storm water system we have a 374 00:18:24,419 --> 00:18:26,280 storm water system that we know is over 375 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:28,799 100 years old and the city did a study 376 00:18:28,799 --> 00:18:31,799 in 2017 and there was more than 50 377 00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:33,840 million dollars of known improvements uh 378 00:18:33,840 --> 00:18:36,179 and and we will are and will continue to 379 00:18:36,179 --> 00:18:37,860 work on providing more funding for our 380 00:18:37,860 --> 00:18:40,500 storm water system uh certainly this 381 00:18:40,500 --> 00:18:43,080 flood surge was record levels of water 382 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:45,360 but as we'll see in some of these next 383 00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:48,059 pictures some of the more concerning 384 00:18:48,059 --> 00:18:51,179 issues are are the landslides and so 385 00:18:51,179 --> 00:18:52,740 we've had a number of locations where 386 00:18:52,740 --> 00:18:54,299 there's been landslides and we've had 387 00:18:54,299 --> 00:18:57,380 our geotechnical Engineers out to assess 388 00:18:57,380 --> 00:19:00,419 these areas sometimes they're behind 389 00:19:00,419 --> 00:19:02,520 homes other times they're on areas that 390 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,799 you can visibly see for example driving 391 00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:07,440 San Bruno Avenue but but know that your 392 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:10,140 staff has not only taken temporary 393 00:19:10,140 --> 00:19:13,860 measures to visqueen or put plastic to 394 00:19:13,860 --> 00:19:15,360 cover a number of the slides but we've 395 00:19:15,360 --> 00:19:18,179 also had geotechnical Engineers out and 396 00:19:18,179 --> 00:19:20,520 I hiked many of these areas yesterday 397 00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,740 with our staff 398 00:19:22,740 --> 00:19:25,620 but of most concern or let me talk about 399 00:19:25,620 --> 00:19:27,900 trees as we know high winds that we 400 00:19:27,900 --> 00:19:29,820 continue to experience we had a number 401 00:19:29,820 --> 00:19:32,340 of tree failures many people in the 402 00:19:32,340 --> 00:19:34,980 community did not experience closed 403 00:19:34,980 --> 00:19:37,679 roads and that's really because of the 404 00:19:37,679 --> 00:19:39,419 wonderful work of our Public Works staff 405 00:19:39,419 --> 00:19:41,880 and our fire department that were out 406 00:19:41,880 --> 00:19:44,039 there immediately as a tree fell and 407 00:19:44,039 --> 00:19:45,660 removed it from the roadway but we had 408 00:19:45,660 --> 00:19:48,000 trees that fell all throughout the 409 00:19:48,000 --> 00:19:50,460 community due to the high wind taking 410 00:19:50,460 --> 00:19:54,059 out power power lines but a most concern 411 00:19:54,059 --> 00:19:58,220 are two sinkholes one in the 412 00:19:58,220 --> 00:20:01,620 uh Northern parking lot of Church of the 413 00:20:01,620 --> 00:20:03,299 Highlands that is actually a city storm 414 00:20:03,299 --> 00:20:05,000 drain that's the picture in the middle 415 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:07,440 that is a temporary fix that our 416 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:10,260 consultant uh or one of our emergency 417 00:20:10,260 --> 00:20:12,299 contractors was able to put in place 418 00:20:12,299 --> 00:20:15,960 it's a 54 and storm dream Culvert that 419 00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:19,020 collapsed and created a sinkhole there 420 00:20:19,020 --> 00:20:20,460 has been a temporary fix and there's 421 00:20:20,460 --> 00:20:22,140 currently three metal grates covering 422 00:20:22,140 --> 00:20:24,720 that fix but we do expect this to be a 423 00:20:24,720 --> 00:20:27,919 very large and likely very expensive fix 424 00:20:27,919 --> 00:20:30,480 and if you go there now you can hear the 425 00:20:30,480 --> 00:20:32,880 water gushing we cannot fix it in the 426 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,460 middle of the storm season but we do 427 00:20:35,460 --> 00:20:39,600 believe that this temporary fix will hold but there is a large section 428 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:41,280 of the pipe that is depressed and has 429 00:20:41,280 --> 00:20:43,500 created a sinkhole and so that area is 430 00:20:43,500 --> 00:20:45,720 currently off limits in addition near 431 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,820 city park at Cypress and Crystal Springs 432 00:20:47,820 --> 00:20:49,679 there was a sinkhole that developed 433 00:20:49,679 --> 00:20:52,799 under the sidewalk uh happy to announce 434 00:20:52,799 --> 00:20:54,900 that that a permanent fix has already 435 00:20:54,900 --> 00:20:57,780 been installed for that our contractor 436 00:20:57,780 --> 00:20:59,580 worked throughout the night until five 437 00:20:59,580 --> 00:21:01,200 o'clock in the morning one day just to 438 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,179 fix that when we had a break in between 439 00:21:03,179 --> 00:21:05,340 the storms we have not yet repaired the 440 00:21:05,340 --> 00:21:07,620 concrete of course due to the due to the 441 00:21:07,620 --> 00:21:08,640 Rain 442 00:21:08,640 --> 00:21:11,460 next steps we will we are in the early 443 00:21:11,460 --> 00:21:13,799 phase as I mentioned of our assessment 444 00:21:13,799 --> 00:21:15,960 process we will continue to prepare for 445 00:21:15,960 --> 00:21:18,600 these storms that are coming thankfully 446 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,340 they appear to be less in severity than 447 00:21:20,340 --> 00:21:22,799 what we've experienced we will complete 448 00:21:22,799 --> 00:21:24,419 our damage assessments provide that 449 00:21:24,419 --> 00:21:27,600 information to the council and later on 450 00:21:27,600 -->

flooding and a small team can go a 615 00:28:43,860 --> 00:28:46,080 long way and we've had some success in 616 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,419 procuring funds we recently received 617 00:28:48,419 --> 00:28:49,860 eight million dollars to work on a 618 00:28:49,860 --> 00:28:52,799 project in Burlingame Millbrae but 619 00:28:52,799 --> 00:28:54,840 tonight's discussion is of course 620 00:28:54,840 --> 00:28:57,779 focused on on San Bruno so when matter 621 00:28:57,779 --> 00:28:59,940 men will give the presentation talk a 622 00:28:59,940 --> 00:29:02,100 little bit about one Shoreline but then 623 00:29:02,100 --> 00:29:04,740 spend time on some of the immediate 624 00:29:04,740 --> 00:29:07,620 actions that we've we've taken here to 625 00:29:07,620 --> 00:29:09,179 try to alleviate flooding in the in the 626 00:29:09,179 --> 00:29:11,279 Bel Air neighborhood we're concerning 627 00:29:11,279 --> 00:29:13,799 the tide Gates and the pump stations and 628 00:29:13,799 --> 00:29:15,960 then turn our attention to you know what 629 00:29:15,960 --> 00:29:17,940 are the longer term solutions for 630 00:29:17,940 --> 00:29:19,440 flooding in Bel Air where we're 631 00:29:19,440 --> 00:29:21,179 recognizant of the fact that the Bel Air 632 00:29:21,179 --> 00:29:23,460 neighborhood is in a FEMA flood zone and 633 00:29:23,460 --> 00:29:25,620 that's very difficult for the residents 634 00:29:25,620 --> 00:29:28,020 to have to pay those extra charges 635 00:29:28,020 --> 00:29:30,720 so with that let me introduce so Ann 636 00:29:30,720 -->

00:30:47,940 --> 00:30:49,320 slide 665 00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:52,310 and 666 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,500 so if I just I'm trying to press to 667 00:30:55,500 --> 00:31:02,330 advance 668 00:31:02,340 --> 00:31:03,539 um 669 00:31:03,539 --> 00:31:04,740 this is 670 00:31:04,740 --> 00:31:09,179 okay all right great so the pictures 671 00:31:09,179 --> 00:31:11,399 that you see above the three on the left 672 00:31:11,399 --> 00:31:14,460 are from San Bruno in 2021 people 673 00:31:14,460 --> 00:31:16,080 remember that on October of that year 674 00:31:16,080 --> 00:31:19,020 there was a very substantial event that 675 00:31:19,020 --> 00:31:20,520 resulted in flooding to the Bel Air 676 00:31:20,520 --> 00:31:22,860 neighborhood the picture at the right is 677 00:31:22,860 --> 00:31:26,760 from the Pacific coast side and at one 678 00:31:26,760 --> 00:31:28,980 Shoreline we are thinking about the 679 00:31:28,980 --> 00:31:30,779 whole County including what's on the bay 680 00:31:30,779 --> 00:31:33,360 side and the coast side in terms of the 681 00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:37,140 water related impacts of climate change 682 00:31:37,140 --> 00:31:42,120 oh there we go so the county had a 683 00:31:42,120 --> 00:31:45,179 long-standing flood control district but 684 00:31:45,179 --> 00:31:47,760 it only covered a small percentage of 685 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:50,100 the actual area in the county in terms 686 00:31:50,100 --> 00:31:52,020 of generating Revenue to work on these 687 00:31:52,020 --> 00:31:54,899 issues and actually projects in those 688 00:31:54,899 --> 00:31:57,840 areas and on the Bayside it was a very 689 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,240 small percentage as well in the range of 690 00:32:00,240 --> 00:32:01,919 about 10 percent and there was no 691 00:32:01,919 --> 00:32:05,700 activity on the coast side given the uh 692 00:32:05,700 --> 00:32:09,080 the substantial and in some ways unique 693 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:11,899 vulnerability of San Mateo County to 694 00:32:11,899 --> 00:32:14,039 climate change and the water related 695 00:32:14,039 --> 00:32:16,500 impacts it was felt that this Flood 696 00:32:16,500 --> 00:32:19,679 Control District was inadequate to 697 00:32:19,679 --> 00:32:24,539 address the issue and so in in 2019 698 00:32:24,539 --> 00:32:26,539 there was State legislation 699 00:32:26,539 --> 00:32:29,279 signed by the governor Newsom and it 700 00:32:29,279 --> 00:32:31,320 established the San Mateo County flood 701 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:32,880 and sea level rise resiliency District 702 00:32:32,880 --> 00:32:35,039 also known as one Shoreline as of 703 00:32:35,039 --> 00:32:38,640 January 1 of 2020 and and we work on the 704 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,880 multiple issues associated with water 705 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:43,919 and climate including flooding and sea 706 00:32:43,919 --> 00:32:45,779 level rise Coastal erosion as I 707 00:32:45,779 --> 00:32:48,179 mentioned Regional storm water efforts 708 00:32:48,179 --> 00:32:52,020 water retention and as part of the we we 709 00:32:52,020 --> 00:32:54,179 look at Recreation opportunities for 710 00:32:54,179 --> 00:32:55,500 recreational enhancement and 711 00:32:55,500 --> 00:32:58,200 environmental enhancement we take a 712 00:32:58,200 --> 00:33:01,080 holistic approach to to the threats 713 00:33:01,080 --> 00:33:03,000 looking at all these different threats 714 00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,799 and not just kind of a traditional flood 715 00:33:04,799 --> 00:33:07,320 control approach holistic of you to 716 00:33:07,320 --> 00:33:11,159 geography as supervisor Pine mentioned 717 00:33:11,159 --> 00:33:14,039 we work multi-jurisdictionally and 718 00:33:14,039 --> 00:33:16,500 throughout the county because of course 719 00:33:16,500 --> 00:33:20,700 this issue of of climate does not in any 720 00:33:20,700 --> 00:33:22,559 way respect jurisdictional boundaries 721 00:33:22,559 --> 00:33:25,740 and no City can do it alone and then we 722 00:33:25,740 --> 00:33:28,159 take a holistic view of objectives 723 00:33:28,159 --> 00:33:31,559 we think about how to incorporate not 724 00:33:31,559 --> 00:33:34,140 just governmental work but also with our 725 00:33:34,140 --> 00:33:35,940 partners in the private sector and 726 00:33:35,940 --> 00:33:37,620 community-based organization is bring 727 00:33:37,620 --> 00:33:39,899 them into the fold and a holistic view 728 00:33:39,899 --> 00:33:42,419 of the disciplines where climate is not 729 00:33:42,419 --> 00:33:44,700 just a water issue or a wildfire issue 730 00:33:44,700 --> 00:33:46,799 it's also a housing issue or a land use 731 00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:48,720 issue or a transportation issue or a 732 00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,059 utilities issue all of these things are 733 00:33:51,059 --> 00:33:52,919 affected now and will be affected more 734 00:33:52,919 --> 00:33:55,500 so in the future by the effects of 735 00:33:55,500 --> 00:33:57,919 climate change 736 00:33:57,919 --> 00:34:01,620 in terms of our activities this is our 737 00:34:01,620 --> 00:34:03,360 last slide on one Shoreline but it 738 00:34:03,360 --> 00:34:06,419 summarizes what we've been up to in 2020 739 00:34:06,419 --> 00:34:09,839 2021 and 2022 setting up the new agency 740 00:34:09,839 --> 00:34:12,179 as supervisor Prime mentioned we 741 00:34:12,179 --> 00:34:13,440 completed a 10 million dollar 742 00:34:13,440 --> 00:34:16,740 construction project down along the Bay 743 00:34:16,740 --> 00:34:19,639 Side of Redwood City and Menlo Park 744 00:34:19,639 --> 00:34:21,599 we've developed new multiple 745 00:34:21,599 --> 00:34:23,280 jurisdiction jurisdictional projects 746 00:34:23,280 --> 00:34:25,980 including the one that was mentioned in 747 00:34:25,980 --> 00:34:28,560 Berlin Cayman Millbrae we've developed 748 00:34:28,560 --> 00:34:30,240 the first of its kind in the Bay Area 749 00:34:30,240 --> 00:34:32,520 zoning ordinance to address future 750 00:34:32,520 --> 00:34:34,139 climate conditions for the city of 751 00:34:34,139 --> 00:34:35,520 Burlingame and we're working with other 752 00:34:35,520 --> 00:34:38,960 cities on their various General planned 753 00:34:38,960 --> 00:34:42,060 documents specific plans and zoning 754 00:34:42,060 --> 00:34:45,240 ordinances we would be very happy to 755 00:34:45,240 --> 00:34:46,919 work with San Bruno on those types of 756 00:34:46,919 --> 00:34:51,899 documents and and we've raised funds 757 00:34:51,899 --> 00:34:53,220 we've spent about three and a half 758 00:34:53,220 --> 00:34:54,960 million dollars just under that and 759 00:34:54,960 --> 00:34:56,820 we've brought in almost 20 million 760 00:34:56,820 --> 00:34:58,859 dollars so far so I think it's a good 761 00:34:58,859 --> 00:35:02,099 return on investment to this point 762 00:35:02,099 --> 00:35:02,700 um 763 00:35:02,700 --> 00:35:04,619 if we look at the bay side and we look 764 00:35:04,619 --> 00:35:10,980 where work is being done to address the County's unique vulnerability to sea 765 00:35:10,980 --> 00:35:13,560 level rise in California there are areas 766 00:35:13,560 --> 00:35:16,079 of the county that have work that is in 767 00:35:16,079 --> 00:35:18,119 planning design or construction and 768 00:35:18,119 --> 00:35:20,579 those are the areas in green of our 53 769 00:35:20,579 --> 00:35:22,800 miles of County Shoreline there are also 770 00:35:22,800 --> 00:35:24,720 substantial areas in red that don't yet 771 00:35:24,720 --> 00:35:26,940 have those types of activities underway 772 00:35:26,940 --> 00:35:29,820 in any coordinated way and those are the 773 00:35:29,820 --> 00:35:31,619 areas in red and so we have a bay 774 00:35:31,619 --> 00:35:34,320 program at one Shoreline to align and 775 00:35:34,320 --> 00:35:37,200 connect all of the shoreline on the bay 776 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,310 side of this County 777 00:35:40,320 --> 00:35:42,660 um we we work over the next 18 months 778 00:35:42,660 --> 00:35:44,760 we're going to be doing a lot of work on 779 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:46,619 those planning documents 780 00:35:46,619 --> 00:35:48,000 um because that's I think going to be 781 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:49,440 our Legacy is what are these communities 782 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:51,180 look like so that we don't have to 783 00:35:51,180 --> 00:35:53,339 retrofit them in the future for things 784 00:35:53,339 --> 00:35:55,680 that we know are coming like The New 785 00:35:55,680 --> 00:35:58,140 Normal over every winter of drought and 786 00:35:58,140 --> 00:36:00,960 Atmospheric River if anybody thinks that 787 00:36:00,960 --> 00:36:04,079 this is a once in a lifetime event 788 00:36:04,079 --> 00:36:06,300 um I would submit that they're probably 789 00:36:06,300 --> 00:36:08,520 mistaken is that what we saw in 2021 790 00:36:08,520 --> 00:36:11,040 what we've seen now in 2022 is what 791 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:13,260 we're going to see more or less in 792 00:36:13,260 --> 00:36:15,420 Winters to come and we need to be 793 00:36:15,420 --> 00:36:17,280 thinking now about that in terms of how 794 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:19,380 and where we develop and what what that 795 00:36:19,380 --> 00:36:21,000 looks like are we are we positioning 796 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:24,000 ourselves to be able to become resilient 797 00:36:24,000 --> 00:36:26,720 to these types of events also 798 00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:28,440 multi-jurisdictional projects it's not 799 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:30,240 just Burlingame and Millbrae what we're 800 00:36:30,240 --> 00:36:32,339 doing on San Bruno Creek is also a 801 00:36:32,339 --> 00:36:33,900 multi-jurisdictional project as I'll 802 00:36:33,900 --> 00:36:36,960 mention and these other items 803 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:40,820 okay so um so looking at San Bruno Creek 804 00:36:40,820 --> 00:36:43,380 as was mentioned uh there was a 805 00:36:43,380 --> 00:36:45,540 long-standing flood control district 806 00:36:45,540 --> 00:36:48,660 that had flood zones in 2020 when when 807 00:36:48,660 --> 00:36:51,720 Shoreline was established We inherited a 808 00:36:51,720 --> 00:36:54,119 decades-old flood zone uh four of them 809 00:36:54,119 --> 00:36:55,800 actually and the two that you see here 810 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:57,780 for Coloma Creek Watershed and the San 811 00:36:57,780 --> 00:37:00,060 Bruno Creek is a flood zone the San 812 00:37:00,060 --> 00:37:02,280 Bruno Creek flood zone collects property 813 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:04,440 taxes from residents within the city as 814 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,240 well as a small sliver of the Coloma 815 00:37:06,240 --> 00:37:08,579 Creek Watershed specific to the San 816 00:37:08,579 --> 00:37:10,140 Bruno Creek flood zone it generates 817 00:37:10,140 --> 00:37:13,500 about 350 thousand dollars annually this 818 00:37:13,500 --> 00:37:15,480 year we've been very active working with 819 00:37:15,480 --> 00:37:17,940 the city and the county on on Creek 820 00:37:17,940 --> 00:37:19,920 related issues that I'll describe we'll 821 00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:21,660 be spending about eight hundred thousand 822 00:37:21,660 --> 00:37:23,700 dollars this year and at the end of this 823 00:37:23,700 --> 00:37:25,680 fiscal year we anticipate having a 824 00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:29,880 reserve of about 2.3 million dollars on 825 00:37:29,880 --> 00:37:33,180 the right now you can see coming up the 826 00:37:33,180 --> 00:37:36,480 current FEMA flood map for the city of 827 00:37:36,480 --> 00:37:37,859 San Bruno 828 00:37:37,859 --> 00:37:40,200 um and the area in that's circled in 829 00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:43,079 pink let's say is the area of San Bruno 830 00:37:43,079 --> 00:37:45,599 that's within the FEMA flood map in in 831 00:37:45,599 --> 00:37:48,420 those in that area of the city uh if if 832 00:37:48,420 --> 00:37:50,400 a property owner has a federally backed 833 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:51,660 mortgage then they're required to 834 00:37:51,660 --> 00:37:53,579 purchase flood insurance 835 00:37:53,579 --> 00:37:54,900 um and this was a big topic of 836 00:37:54,900 --> 00:37:58,339 discussion uh in 2017 2018 837 00:37:58,339 --> 00:38:01,140 and the maps became the FEMA Maps became 838 00:38:01,140 --> 00:38:03,900 effective in 2019 there are multiple 839 00:38:03,900 --> 00:38:07,440 reasons that the Bel Air area of the 840 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:09,540 neighborhood an area of San Bruno is 841 00:38:09,540 --> 00:38:12,060 within the FEMA flood map those are five 842 00:38:12,060 --> 00:38:13,920 reasons that are listed there that 843 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:16,260 includes uh according to the modeled 844 00:38:16,260 --> 00:38:19,200 reasons water coming from navigable 845 00:38:19,200 --> 00:38:21,240 Slough down Shaw Road from South San 846 00:38:21,240 --> 00:38:23,880 Francisco water I'm kind of going in a 847 00:38:23,880 --> 00:38:27,480 circular way clockwise water coming up 848 00:38:27,480 --> 00:38:29,880 the creek in San Bruno Creek the 849 00:38:29,880 --> 00:38:32,460 backflow effects from a tight gate water 850 00:38:32,460 --> 00:38:34,260 just coming from San Francisco Airport 851 00:38:34,260 --> 00:38:37,440 into the city of San Bruno and South of 852 00:38:37,440 --> 00:38:39,119 the airport there's a high line Canal 853 00:38:39,119 --> 00:38:41,820 which is quite far from that area but 854 00:38:41,820 --> 00:38:43,920 according to the models water that comes 855 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:45,599 up Highline Canal which separates 856 00:38:45,599 --> 00:38:48,180 Millbrae and SFO would make its way into 857 00:38:48,180 --> 00:38:50,460 San Bruno and then finally the Cupid's 858 00:38:50,460 --> 00:38:52,140 row Canal whether there's enough 859 00:38:52,140 --> 00:38:54,720 capacity there so we have to work on all 860 00:38:54,720 --> 00:38:56,700 five issues if we want to get people out 861 00:38:56,700 --> 00:39:00,950 of this FEMA flood map 862 00:39:00,960 --> 00:39:03,599 taking a little closer view at the Bel 863 00:39:03,599 --> 00:39:06,420 Air neighborhood it's located along 864 00:39:06,420 --> 00:39:10,140 Highway 101 and Highway 380 and about 865 00:39:10,140 --> 00:39:12,359 the first The Last Mile sorry of the 866 00:39:12,359 --> 00:39:15,119 creek as it drains into the bay and in 867 00:39:15,119 --> 00:39:16,880 that stretch it's very complex 868 00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:20,040 jurisdictionally and technically where 869 00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:21,780 you have the city of course the city of 870 00:39:21,780 --> 00:39:24,480 San Bruno jurisdiction you have also 871 00:39:24,480 --> 00:39:26,820 County unincorporated area San Francisco 872 00:39:26,820 --> 00:39:29,300 International Airport ownership of land 873 00:39:29,300 --> 00:39:31,040 Caltrans 874 00:39:31,040 --> 00:39:34,200 right-of-way underneath 380 and Highway 875 00:39:34,200 --> 00:39:37,260 101 and then as it drains to the Bay the 876 00:39:37,260 --> 00:39:38,960 city of South San Francisco 877 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:42,900 is is the jurisdiction of that area and 878 00:39:42,900 --> 00:39:45,000 we own the tide gate at one Shoreline 879 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:47,820 and we also have land rights where it 880 00:39:47,820 --> 00:39:50,300 says the Walnut Pump Station 881 00:39:50,300 --> 00:39:53,160 that that section North of San Bruno 882 00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,560 Avenue 883 00:39:55,560 --> 00:39:59,339 um as we as we look at uh as the work 884 00:39:59,339 --> 00:40:01,380 um that there's been a lot of work uh 885 00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:03,240 over the last 10 years a lot of 886 00:40:03,240 --> 00:40:05,280 attention paid to this area here are 887 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,260 seven different Studies by different 888 00:40:07,260 --> 00:40:10,560 agencies that have looked at this issue 889 00:40:10,560 --> 00:40:13,440 and our job at one Shoreline as kind of 890 00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:16,260 a regional body as I said that thinks 891 00:40:16,260 --> 00:40:18,720 holistically is to pull together these 892 00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:21,300 studies in a cogent way that makes sense 893 00:40:21,300 --> 00:40:23,700 where we have one solution one big 894 00:40:23,700 --> 00:40:26,220 solution that takes into account the the 895 00:40:26,220 --> 00:40:28,260 data that has been gathered by multiple 896 00:40:28,260 --> 00:40:31,260 agencies because this is a system in all 897 00:40:31,260 --> 00:40:33,420 aspects of the system uh relate to one 898 00:40:33,420 --> 00:40:35,339 another so that's what we're trying to 899 00:40:35,339 --> 00:40:38,579 do if we look at the work that was done 900 00:40:38,579 --> 00:40:41,339 uh the near-term work that was done to 901 00:40:41,339 --> 00:40:42,599 reduce flooding in the Bel Air 902 00:40:42,599 --> 00:40:46,079 neighborhood there was work done by by 903 00:40:46,079 --> 00:40:48,119 one Shoreline that we worked with the 904 00:40:48,119 --> 00:40:50,940 county and and City staff and the staff 905 00:40:50,940 --> 00:40:53,700 that's in supervisor Pines office to 906 00:40:53,700 --> 00:40:56,040 repair the tide guide this is the title 907 00:40:56,040 --> 00:40:58,920 of our agenda item here and these two 908 00:40:58,920 --> 00:41:01,680 pictures show a before and after of the 909 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:08,160 tide gate the picture at the top has the flap gate a jar and uh and three of 910 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,560 the four flap Gates were um were 911 00:41:10,560 --> 00:41:13,619 detached and so water would flow freely 912 00:41:13,619 --> 00:41:15,960 in from the bay and this was uh 913 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,300 something that occurred or they became 914 00:41:18,300 --> 00:41:21,119 attached in the fall of 2021 and 915 00:41:21,119 --> 00:41:23,160 undoubtedly that affected the flooding 916 00:41:23,160 --> 00:41:26,220 that happened in October 2021. we fixed 917 00:41:26,220 --> 00:41:28,800 those earlier this spring I mean 918 00:41:28,800 --> 00:41:30,359 actually not the spring but the spring 919 00:41:30,359 --> 00:41:34,680 of 2022 after uh the this circumstance 920 00:41:34,680 --> 00:41:37,980 was identified and and we all discussed 921 00:41:37,980 --> 00:41:39,420 why we think that made a big difference 922 00:41:39,420 --> 00:41:42,780 in the storms of of the past 10 days or 923 00:41:42,780 --> 00:41:45,720 so another near-term activity that we've 924 00:41:45,720 --> 00:41:49,220 been working on is to repair and replace 925 00:41:49,220 --> 00:41:52,440 and provide backup electricity for the 926 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:54,300 motors and the Walnut and Angus Pump 927 00:41:54,300 --> 00:41:56,640 Station these are immediately adjacent 928 00:41:56,640 --> 00:41:59,339 to the Bel Air neighborhood and are very 929 00:41:59,339 --> 00:42:01,800 important resources to drain the water 930 00:42:01,800 --> 00:42:03,359 that's collected on the streets of Bel 931 00:42:03,359 --> 00:42:06,420 Air and pump it into San Bruno Creek so 932 00:42:06,420 --> 00:42:07,800 that it can efficiently efficiently 933 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:10,440 float uh make its way to the to the bay 934 00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,540 and then finally we're working with 935 00:42:12,540 --> 00:42:14,160 Caltrans which as I mentioned has 936 00:42:14,160 --> 00:42:15,960 right-of-way under Highway 380 and 937 00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:19,560 Highway 101 to put a valve on their 938 00:42:19,560 --> 00:42:22,140 outfall to reduce the water that backs 939 00:42:22,140 --> 00:42:25,200 up from the creek in into the outfall 940 00:42:25,200 --> 00:42:27,180 and then onto the Caltrans property 941 00:42:27,180 --> 00:42:32,820 under 380 and then on to 7th Avenue and that whole cycle or movement of 942 00:42:32,820 --> 00:42:35,160 water also exacerbates the flooding 943 00:42:35,160 --> 00:42:38,700 there so how do we how do we know that 944 00:42:38,700 --> 00:42:40,980 or think that the tide gate made a 945 00:42:40,980 --> 00:42:42,180 difference 946 00:42:42,180 --> 00:42:45,020 the work on the tight gate late 947 00:42:45,020 --> 00:42:48,780 earlier this year so the repair project 948 00:42:48,780 --> 00:42:50,760 We Believe has made a difference if you 949 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,940 look at the images on the left these are 950 00:42:53,940 --> 00:42:57,780 images from dry days sunny days and it's 951 00:42:57,780 --> 00:43:01,619 from January 3rd of 2022. the video is 952 00:43:01,619 --> 00:43:03,839 driving along 7th Avenue heading towards 953 00:43:03,839 --> 00:43:08,819 the city of South San Francisco and the still images are just pictures from 954 00:43:08,819 --> 00:43:10,619 that day as well there's a lot of water 955 00:43:10,619 --> 00:43:15,000 at 7th Avenue at the PG e site and then 956 00:43:15,000 --> 00:43:17,339 of course heading under Highway 380. you 957 00:43:17,339 --> 00:43:18,660 can see all that water 958 00:43:18,660 --> 00:43:20,880 so that was in January and then at the 959 00:43:20,880 --> 00:43:23,099 end of 2022 after the tide gate project 960 00:43:23,099 --> 00:43:25,579 was done this is also during High Tides 961 00:43:25,579 --> 00:43:28,500 you see basically no water in that same 962 00:43:28,500 --> 00:43:30,420 area and 963 00:43:30,420 --> 00:43:32,760 um and so we believe it's made it quite 964 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,560 a big big difference 965 00:43:34,560 --> 00:43:36,780 um now when it rains and you have these 966 00:43:36,780 --> 00:43:39,000 storms there's kind of a more much more 967 00:43:39,000 --> 00:43:41,880 complicated mix of of fresh water and 968 00:43:41,880 --> 00:43:44,220 tidal water and so that's one of the 969 00:43:44,220 --> 00:43:46,140 things that excuse me we would be 970 00:43:46,140 --> 00:43:48,480 studying uh in in the work that's 971 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:51,829 upcoming 972 00:43:51,839 --> 00:43:53,640 so we have a set of rain gauges 973 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,980 throughout the county this was mentioned 974 00:43:55,980 --> 00:43:58,859 earlier in Mr grogan's presentation we 975 00:43:58,859 --> 00:44:01,800 have a set of of gauges of rain and a 976 00:44:01,800 --> 00:44:04,200 creek height the water that's in Creeks 977 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:06,420 during storms and we look at those 978 00:44:06,420 --> 00:44:07,520 gauges 979 00:44:07,520 --> 00:44:11,400 during these storms any time of day 24 980 00:44:11,400 --> 00:44:14,160 hours a day and depending on the 981 00:44:14,160 --> 00:44:16,500 circumstance of both the water in the 982 00:44:16,500 --> 00:44:18,480 channel and the rain that's coming 983 00:44:18,480 --> 00:44:22,319 towards the channel we send out alerts 984 00:44:22,319 --> 00:44:25,740 and the alerts go to City staff and the 985 00:44:25,740 --> 00:44:28,260 alerts now in two watersheds including 986 00:44:28,260 --> 00:44:30,900 San Bruno Creek go to the public through 987 00:44:30,900 --> 00:44:33,599 SMC alert so I would Echo the comments 988 00:44:33,599 --> 00:44:36,240 of Mr Grogan and your vice mayor about 989 00:44:36,240 --> 00:44:38,460 the importance of SMC alert especially 990 00:44:38,460 --> 00:44:41,280 if you live or work near the Bel Air 991 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:43,140 neighborhood because that's where we've 992 00:44:43,140 --> 00:44:45,660 developed a what's called a polygon of 993 00:44:45,660 --> 00:44:47,579 the map where we will send out SMC 994 00:44:47,579 --> 00:44:50,339 alerts if it looks like San Bruno Creek 995 00:44:50,339 --> 00:44:51,839 will over top or there will be 996 00:44:51,839 --> 00:44:53,880 substantial flooding within that 997 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:58,790 neighborhood 998 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:01,920 it's kind of slow to come up so here are 999 00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:04,440 what's called hydrographs of of the 1000 00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:07,560 creek events of October 24 2021 and 1001 00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,980 December 31 2022. 1002 00:45:10,980 --> 00:45:14,160 um essentially we watch those things and 1003 00:45:14,160 --> 00:45:15,839 worry about these things no matter what 1004 00:45:15,839 --> 00:45:18,420 time of day we're looking at it so that 1005 00:45:18,420 --> 00:45:21,060 you don't have to and we will rock we 1006 00:45:21,060 --> 00:45:22,859 watched these things and establish okay 1007 00:45:22,859 --> 00:45:25,140 is there a peak flow going on and do we 1008 00:45:25,140 --> 00:45:27,480 send out a message but if you compare 1009 00:45:27,480 --> 00:45:30,780 those two storms in October 2021 there 1010 00:45:30,780 --> 00:45:33,900 was more rain than in December of 20 1011 00:45:33,900 --> 00:45:37,800 December 31 of 2022 but December 31 of 1012 00:45:37,800 --> 00:45:40,140 2022 that storm had a higher peak of 1013 00:45:40,140 --> 00:45:42,560 water within the creek Channel 1014 00:45:42,560 --> 00:45:46,020 and at the same time it caused less a 1015 00:45:46,020 --> 00:45:47,220 little bit less flooding apparently 1016 00:45:47,220 --> 00:45:48,839 based on the information that we have 1017 00:45:48,839 --> 00:45:50,700 and I want to just pause there one 1018 00:45:50,700 --> 00:45:53,579 second and encourage people if they have 1019 00:45:53,579 --> 00:45:56,339 pictures or videos from their property 1020 00:45:56,339 --> 00:45:58,079 or if they're in the neighborhood and 1021 00:45:58,079 --> 00:45:59,940 they're seeing flooding feel free to 1022 00:45:59,940 --> 00:46:01,740 send it to us at one Shoreline because 1023 00:46:01,740 --> 00:46:05,099 as we calibrate our flood alert system 1024 00:46:05,099 --> 00:46:08,579 and as we think about uh projects in the 1025 00:46:08,579 --> 00:46:10,260 future it's very helpful for us to 1026 00:46:10,260 --> 00:46:11,940 understand where flooding occurred and 1027 00:46:11,940 --> 00:46:13,220 at what time 1028 00:46:13,220 --> 00:46:16,380 as we as we kind of develop those or 1029 00:46:16,380 --> 00:46:20,400 refine those products and so we we 1030 00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:22,500 believe that that that flooding was 1031 00:46:22,500 --> 00:46:24,839 reduced due to two things one is the 1032 00:46:24,839 --> 00:46:27,720 pump stations were fully functioning in 1033 00:46:27,720 --> 00:46:31,200 December of 31 of 2022 storm all the 1034 00:46:31,200 --> 00:46:32,940 pumps were online there was electrical 1035 00:46:32,940 --> 00:46:34,680 generator backup all the things that I 1036 00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:35,940 mentioned that we have been working on 1037 00:46:35,940 --> 00:46:39,720 through 2022 as well as the tide had 1038 00:46:39,720 --> 00:46:41,520 less influence because the tide Gates 1039 00:46:41,520 --> 00:46:45,900 were were operable fully operable 1040 00:46:45,900 --> 00:46:48,839 okay last slide long-term Solutions this 1041 00:46:48,839 --> 00:46:51,780 is super important so 1042 00:46:51,780 --> 00:46:54,119 all of everything I just said is about 1043 00:46:54,119 --> 00:46:56,579 the near-term how do we deal with the 1044 00:46:56,579 --> 00:46:57,960 flooding today to the best of our 1045 00:46:57,960 --> 00:47:00,060 Collective ability 1046 00:47:00,060 --> 00:47:01,619 that is not going to get people out of 1047 00:47:01,619 --> 00:47:03,540 the flood insurance program and it's not 1048 00:47:03,540 --> 00:47:06,839 going to address these issues long term we need to look at those five 1049 00:47:06,839 --> 00:47:09,720 sources of flooding and and think about 1050 00:47:09,720 --> 00:47:12,359 the FEMA maps and think about sea level 1051 00:47:12,359 --> 00:47:14,460 rise and how that is going to further 1052 00:47:14,460 --> 00:47:16,619 influence what we were seeing in the 1053 00:47:16,619 --> 00:47:20,400 slide with the video of the drive from 1054 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:24,060 the car on 7th Avenue and so for the 1055 00:47:24,060 --> 00:47:27,000 long-term solution we're embarking on a 1056 00:47:27,000 --> 00:47:29,300 project we will get it started in 2023 1057 00:47:29,300 --> 00:47:31,140 regardless of what the federal 1058 00:47:31,140 --> 00:47:32,819 government says to us about our Grant 1059 00:47:32,819 --> 00:47:34,319 application we applied for nine hundred 1060 00:47:34,319 --> 00:47:36,240 thousand dollars we had the support of 1061 00:47:36,240 --> 00:47:39,300 San Bruno South San Francisco and others 1062 00:47:39,300 --> 00:47:41,640 on that application so we're hopeful but 1063 00:47:41,640 --> 00:47:43,500 regardless we will get started on the 1064 00:47:43,500 --> 00:47:45,480 project and potential aspects of the 1065 00:47:45,480 --> 00:47:47,520 project are a complete replacement of 1066 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:49,380 the tide gate the repair that we made 1067 00:47:49,380 --> 00:47:52,200 was to a facility that was established 1068 00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:56,460 or built in the 1940s it is it is now 1069 00:47:56,460 --> 00:47:58,500 repaired it is working much better than 1070 00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:00,839 it was 15 months ago but it's is not a 1071 00:48:00,839 --> 00:48:02,940 long-term solution for this area so 1072 00:48:02,940 --> 00:48:04,440 replacing the tide gate is important 1073 00:48:04,440 --> 00:48:06,359 potentially building a new pump station 1074 00:48:06,359 --> 00:48:08,720 at the tide gate to get water 1075 00:48:08,720 --> 00:48:11,760 over the tide gate from the creek into 1076 00:48:11,760 --> 00:48:15,119 the bay another another idea is to 1077 00:48:15,119 --> 00:48:17,099 replace these pump stations that right 1078 00:48:17,099 --> 00:48:18,900 now we're constantly trying to repair 1079 00:48:18,900 --> 00:48:21,720 those pump stations were built in the 1080 00:48:21,720 --> 00:48:24,839 1960s and they are not up to the task of 1081 00:48:24,839 --> 00:48:27,900 these atmospheric Rivers another project 1082 00:48:27,900 --> 00:48:30,119 idea is to elevate the bay shoreline 1083 00:48:30,119 --> 00:48:33,079 between San Bruno Creek and Colma Creek 1084 00:48:33,079 --> 00:48:35,460 and because it's all kind of connected 1085 00:48:35,460 --> 00:48:37,440 with the sea level rise issue and then 1086 00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:40,619 finally to build one or more stormwater 1087 00:48:40,619 --> 00:48:42,540 detention basins adjacent to the creek 1088 00:48:42,540 --> 00:48:44,700 whether that's far Upstream near Highway 1089 00:48:44,700 --> 00:48:47,280 280 perhaps in the park right here at 1090 00:48:47,280 --> 00:48:49,920 this right next to where we're talking 1091 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,319 right now or farther much farther 1092 00:48:52,319 --> 00:48:55,040 Downstream as San Bruno Creek goes along 1093 00:48:55,040 --> 00:48:57,720 the Bel Air neighborhood so these are 1094 00:48:57,720 --> 00:48:59,640 some of the project ideas that we're 1095 00:48:59,640 --> 00:49:02,160 going to get started on doing some 1096 00:49:02,160 --> 00:49:05,000 planning and project alternative 1097 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:08,819 analysis with consultants in the next 12 1098 00:49:08,819 --> 00:49:10,020 months 1099 00:49:10,020 --> 00:49:12,560 and that concludes the presentation 1100 00:49:12,560 --> 00:49:15,780 I and McKenna and supervisor Pine would 1101 00:49:15,780 --> 00:49:20,180 be glad to answer questions thank you very much for that information 1102 00:49:20,180 --> 00:49:22,619 I think it's extremely helpful and I 1103 00:49:22,619 --> 00:49:24,119 don't know that as we've talked before 1104 00:49:24,119 --> 00:49:26,339 and I appreciate your time that folks 1105 00:49:26,339 --> 00:49:28,260 know those things that are occurring and 1106 00:49:28,260 --> 00:49:30,060 have occurred and so thank you for that 1107 00:49:30,060 --> 00:49:32,099 with that I'd like to ask my colleagues 1108 00:49:32,099 --> 00:49:33,359 if there are any questions that they 1109 00:49:33,359 --> 00:49:38,930 have at this time 1110 00:49:38,940 --> 00:49:41,160 yep yes uh 1111 00:49:41,160 --> 00:49:43,260 sorry to get used to this first welcome 1112 00:49:43,260 --> 00:49:46,440 again happy New Year and may I please uh 1113 00:49:46,440 --> 00:49:49,020 call upon council member Alvarez 1114 00:49:49,020 --> 00:49:51,540 thank you for your um very informative 1115 00:49:51,540 --> 00:49:53,880 presentation 1116 00:49:53,880 --> 00:49:56,460 um just reading on your website um and 1117 00:49:56,460 --> 00:49:59,280 you also mentioned that you have 1118 00:49:59,280 --> 00:50:03,599 identified three solutions which are 1119 00:50:03,599 --> 00:50:06,720 um replacing the pump station I know 1120 00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:08,160 that we have had 1121 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:11,640 um problems whenever we have heavy rains 1122 00:50:11,640 --> 00:50:15,660 like this along 7th Avenue which was 1123 00:50:15,660 --> 00:50:20,040 built in the 1960s on that that bump 1124 00:50:20,040 --> 00:50:23,040 station when do you anticipate to start 1125 00:50:23,040 --> 00:50:26,400 the project that you identified 1126 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:29,460 yeah uh thank you for that question 1127 00:50:29,460 --> 00:50:33,950 um so I guess what I would say is 1128 00:50:33,960 --> 00:50:36,599 the project would start with 1129 00:50:36,599 --> 00:50:38,940 understanding what those seven other 1130 00:50:38,940 --> 00:50:41,760 studies said and and pulling them 1131 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,480 together into a cohesive plan okay and 1132 00:50:45,480 --> 00:50:47,940 so the project starts with planning and 1133 00:50:47,940 --> 00:50:49,980 collecting data so that we fully 1134 00:50:49,980 --> 00:50:52,619 understand the interaction between the 1135 00:50:52,619 --> 00:50:53,520 creek 1136 00:50:53,520 --> 00:50:55,920 the storm drain system for that 1137 00:50:55,920 --> 00:50:58,980 neighborhood the tides and water that's 1138 00:50:58,980 --> 00:51:01,079 coming in potentially from South San 1139 00:51:01,079 --> 00:51:03,540 Francisco and also from Millbrae if in 1140 00:51:03,540 --> 00:51:05,280 fact it is so we need to understand what 1141 00:51:05,280 --> 00:51:06,599 we're looking at and that's what we 1142 00:51:06,599 --> 00:51:10,079 would start in 2023 is to get gain that 1143 00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:11,880 understanding and and using those 1144 00:51:11,880 --> 00:51:14,099 previous studies as as an important 1145 00:51:14,099 --> 00:51:15,599 Baseline 1146 00:51:15,599 --> 00:51:19,440 and then we would start a process of a 1147 00:51:19,440 --> 00:51:22,680 SQL document so that we we make public 1148 00:51:22,680 --> 00:51:25,619 Alternatives and get feedback from the 1149 00:51:25,619 --> 00:51:27,480 public and from regulatory environmental 1150 00:51:27,480 --> 00:51:29,579 Regulatory Agencies to understand okay 1151 00:51:29,579 --> 00:51:31,319 what is a preferred project that we can 1152 00:51:31,319 --> 00:51:33,000 actually move forward on at the same 1153 00:51:33,000 --> 00:51:34,680 time we're doing a SQL document and 1154 00:51:34,680 --> 00:51:37,140 doing we would do design of a preferred 1155 00:51:37,140 --> 00:51:39,180 project and the SQL document and the 1156 00:51:39,180 --> 00:51:41,000 design process would go hand in hand 1157 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:44,460 that would take a couple years and 1158 00:51:44,460 --> 00:51:48,119 during that time we would seek outside 1159 00:51:48,119 --> 00:51:50,819 funding one of the reasons one Shoreline 1160 00:51:50,819 --> 00:51:54,180 was created established in 2020 as 1161 00:51:54,180 --> 00:51:57,000 supervisor Pine mentioned is to be able 1162 00:51:57,000 --> 00:51:59,099 to attract external funding in a way 1163 00:51:59,099 --> 00:52:01,140 that maybe we otherwise couldn't because 1164 00:52:01,140 --> 00:52:03,900 we're working together as cities and one 1165 00:52:03,900 --> 00:52:06,660 Shoreline in the county and so during 1166 00:52:06,660 --> 00:52:09,720 that process of of sequin design we try 1167 00:52:09,720 --> 00:52:12,359 to attract especially Federal money and 1168 00:52:12,359 --> 00:52:15,000 with all of these storms there is news 1169 00:52:15,000 --> 00:52:17,160 federal faster declarations which means 1170 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:18,480 there's new money for these kinds of 1171 00:52:18,480 --> 00:52:21,000 projects so so I can't give a specific 1172 00:52:21,000 --> 00:52:24,300 timeline all I can say is commit to is 1173 00:52:24,300 --> 00:52:25,500 that we're going to start on that 1174 00:52:25,500 --> 00:52:30,349 process this year 1175 00:52:30,359 --> 00:52:33,480 any other questions from colleagues I'm 1176 00:52:33,480 --> 00:52:35,059 sorry I apologize 1177 00:52:35,059 --> 00:52:37,680 I was looking straight ahead city 1178 00:52:37,680 --> 00:52:39,359 manager sure 1179 00:52:39,359 --> 00:52:41,579 thank you mayor I just want to also say 1180 00:52:41,579 --> 00:52:43,260 that we've talked to one Shoreline and 1181 00:52:43,260 --> 00:52:44,819 one of the commitments that we have 1182 00:52:44,819 --> 00:52:47,760 together is that we'd like to hold a 1183 00:52:47,760 --> 00:52:49,740 neighborhood meeting specifically on 1184 00:52:49,740 --> 00:52:51,660 this issue a lot of things were 1185 00:52:51,660 --> 00:52:53,520 discussed tonight and a lot of work is 1186 00:52:53,520 --> 00:52:56,160 going on for a permanent fix but we know 1187 00:52:56,160 --> 00:52:58,559 not everyone in that Community knows 1188 00:52:58,559 --> 00:53:01,319 about that as well as 1189 00:53:01,319 --> 00:53:04,380 people's property is being flooded in I 1190 00:53:04,380 --> 00:53:05,640 was out there in the middle of a storm 1191 00:53:05,640 --> 00:53:09,240 and I think having a meeting partic 1192 00:53:09,240 --> 00:53:10,980 specifically on this topic is 1193 00:53:10,980 --> 00:53:12,300 appropriate and we've talked to one 1194 00:53:12,300 --> 00:53:14,099 Shoreline about that and we will be 1195 00:53:14,099 --> 00:53:16,920 partnering to hold a meeting in San 1196 00:53:16,920 --> 00:53:20,040 Bruno specifically with our community 1197 00:53:20,040 --> 00:53:21,960 that's affected by this flooding both to 1198 00:53:21,960 --> 00:53:23,400 let them know of the work that's going 1199 00:53:23,400 --> 00:53:26,400 on as well as to seek their ideas and so 1200 00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:28,740 know that that will happen in you and 1201 00:53:28,740 --> 00:53:30,300 the community will see information about 1202 00:53:30,300 --> 00:53:32,460 scheduling of that meeting as soon as we 1203 00:53:32,460 --> 00:53:33,660 can get it together 1204 00:53:33,660 --> 00:53:36,180 thank you for uh alerting us and and the 1205 00:53:36,180 --> 00:53:37,980 community to that and of course 1206 00:53:37,980 --> 00:53:41,160 um having available for uh languages as 1207 00:53:41,160 --> 00:53:43,200 well uh would be thank you 1208 00:53:43,200 --> 00:53:44,579 um and I think it's important to realize 1209 00:53:44,579 --> 00:53:46,740 too with the flood in FEMA the city 1210 00:53:46,740 --> 00:53:49,079 really also went to bat and in the 1211 00:53:49,079 --> 00:53:50,579 appeal process and really worked 1212 00:53:50,579 --> 00:53:52,859 diligently Jimmy Tan was here then and 1213 00:53:52,859 --> 00:53:56,280 the city staff to try to mitigate and uh 1214 00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,160 shall we say shrink the size of who is 1215 00:53:59,160 --> 00:54:00,900 required was mandated to have the flood 1216 00:54:00,900 --> 00:54:03,000 insurance so I do want to recall and 1217 00:54:03,000 --> 00:54:04,980 remind the community and staff work 1218 00:54:04,980 --> 00:54:07,800 extremely hard but as we know trying to 1219 00:54:07,800 --> 00:54:10,859 deal with the federal government uh what 1220 00:54:10,859 --> 00:54:12,119 we think is right and what they think 1221 00:54:12,119 --> 00:54:14,700 are right might be I do not have any I 1222 00:54:14,700 --> 00:54:16,680 do not have any in-person speaker cards 1223 00:54:16,680 --> 00:54:19,500 but we do have one remote hand raised 1224 00:54:19,500 --> 00:54:21,359 Robert Regal 1225 00:54:21,359 --> 00:54:23,640 I will be bringing you in 1226 00:54:23,640 --> 00:54:26,760 whenever you're ready you may begin 1227 00:54:26,760 --> 00:54:28,980 I just have one one question is there 1228 00:54:28,980 --> 00:54:31,680 any need in this scheduling of 1229 00:54:31,680 --> 00:54:35,099 activities to dredge San Bruno Creek all 1230 00:54:35,099 --> 00:54:38,040 the way from the Thai Gates back to San 1231 00:54:38,040 --> 00:54:40,859 Antonio Huntington area to increase the 1232 00:54:40,859 --> 00:54:44,280 capacity that the creek could hold uh 1233 00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:49,549 when the there's excess water 1234 00:54:49,559 --> 00:54:53,160 so would you like me to yes sir okay 1235 00:54:53,160 --> 00:54:55,500 um that's a great question that we have 1236 00:54:55,500 --> 00:54:57,720 we are looking at right now 1237 00:54:57,720 --> 00:54:58,859 um 1238 00:54:58,859 --> 00:55:03,300 the the actual channel of the creek uh 1239 00:55:03,300 --> 00:55:05,880 seems to be able to hold the water 1240 00:55:05,880 --> 00:55:09,000 that's in the channel from 1241 00:55:09,000 --> 00:55:11,640 the the just say just Downstream the 1242 00:55:11,640 --> 00:55:15,839 Cupid's row area to uh to the highway 1243 00:55:15,839 --> 00:55:19,500 380. but part of our analysis that I 1244 00:55:19,500 --> 00:55:21,780 mentioned to councilwoman Alvarez what 1245 00:55:21,780 --> 00:55:23,040 would be 1246 00:55:23,040 --> 00:55:25,200 is that is the capacity of the channel 1247 00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:28,260 sufficient we know that Upstream of 1248 00:55:28,260 --> 00:55:29,460 their 1249 00:55:29,460 --> 00:55:32,880 um let's see near near the ball fields 1250 00:55:32,880 --> 00:55:34,859 all the way to the train tracks by 1251 00:55:34,859 --> 00:55:36,960 Cupid's row we know that that stretch 1252 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:39,900 does not have sufficient capacity and 1253 00:55:39,900 --> 00:55:43,440 there had been annual maintenance uh to 1254 00:55:43,440 --> 00:55:45,480 remove the vegetation that obstructed 1255 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:47,940 the flow there uh previously 1256 00:55:47,940 --> 00:55:50,280 we also know that in 2022 that 1257 00:55:50,280 --> 00:55:52,079 maintenance was not allowed due to 1258 00:55:52,079 --> 00:55:54,380 environmental concerns we're definitely 1259 00:55:54,380 --> 00:55:56,700 hoping and planning that we come in 1260 00:55:56,700 --> 00:55:59,040 there in 2023 and do that vegetation 1261 00:55:59,040 --> 00:56:02,119 removal because it should be done 1262 00:56:02,119 --> 00:56:05,940 so I guess I would in summary for for Mr 1263 00:56:05,940 --> 00:56:08,640 reichel's question I would say that that 1264 00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:10,740 is a very astute question one that we're 1265 00:56:10,740 --> 00:56:12,839 evaluating and we're looking for 1266 00:56:12,839 --> 00:56:15,420 opportunities to increase Channel 1267 00:56:15,420 --> 00:56:16,980 capacity 1268 00:56:16,980 --> 00:56:19,020 it's not practical to just go in there 1269 00:56:19,020 --> 00:56:21,839 and dredge the whole Channel there are 1270 00:56:21,839 --> 00:56:23,940 multiple landowners as I mentioned San 1271 00:56:23,940 --> 00:56:25,920 Francisco Airport being one Caltrans 1272 00:56:25,920 --> 00:56:28,140 being another 1273 00:56:28,140 --> 00:56:31,200 um and there are endangered species in 1274 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,720 that stretch and Regulatory permits 1275 00:56:33,720 --> 00:56:35,880 associated with that and so it's it's 1276 00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:38,819 complicated but we're certainly looking 1277 00:56:38,819 --> 00:56:43,800 at whether this emergency declaration by 1278 00:56:43,800 --> 00:56:47,640 Mr Grogan and the county enables us to 1279 00:56:47,640 --> 00:56:50,579 do some things that otherwise might be 1280 00:56:50,579 --> 00:56:52,500 more difficult to do so stay tuned on 1281 00:56:52,500 --> 00:56:54,240 that one I guess 1282 00:56:54,240 --> 00:56:58,270 thank you any other questions 1283 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,300 and thank you for bringing that up and 1284 00:57:00,300 --> 00:57:02,460 being very candid which is there's a lot 1285 00:57:02,460 --> 00:57:04,800 of owners there's a lot of bureaucracy 1286 00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:06,480 uh and trying to get everybody on the 1287 00:57:06,480 --> 00:57:08,760 same page but taking opportunities that 1288 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:10,380 unfortunately have been placed before us 1289 00:57:10,380 --> 00:57:12,540 appreciate you looking into that and 1290 00:57:12,540 --> 00:57:14,040 coming up with some ideas 1291

01:00:16,500 and therefore has Allied the current 1361 01:00:16,500 --> 01:00:21,000 budget cycle and the same with the WC3 1362 01:00:21,000 --> 01:00:23,700 for the agreement that is requested to 1363 01:00:23,700 --> 01:00:25,980 be executed 1364 01:00:25,980 --> 01:00:28,559 so it won't be outside the current 1365 01:00:28,559 --> 01:00:31,619 budget budget cycle because a budget 1366 01:00:31,619 --> 01:00:33,119 amendment was approved by the city 1367 01:00:33,119 --> 01:00:36,799 council as part of the 1368 01:00:36,799 --> 01:00:39,299 quarterly budget amendment which was 1369 01:00:39,299 --> 01:00:42,059 approved on November 8th for the 1370 01:00:42,059 --> 01:00:46,079 authorization of these two consultant 1371 01:00:46,079 --> 01:00:49,680 agreements through separate

council reviewed and approved 1375 01:00:54,660 --> 01:00:57,119 back in November 1376 01:00:57,119 --> 01:00:58,859 thank you and that's only through the 1377 01:00:58,859 --> 01:01:00,599 end of this fiscal year so only through 1378 01:01:00,599 --> 01:01:02,640 June 30th of this year 1379 01:01:02,640 --> 01:01:04,260 for approval before the end of the 1380 01:01:04,260 --> 01:01:06,780 fiscal year that just as a follow-up to 1381 01:01:06,780 --> 01:01:08,760 that we would also do what we normally 1382 01:01:08,760 --> 01:01:10,380 do at the end of the year is that if 1383 01:01:10,380 --> 01:01:12,599 there are unspent funds from a contract 1384 01:01:12,599 --> 01:01:14,700 that we intend to utilize we would 1385 01:01:14,700 --> 01:01:16,440 encumber those funds and roll them over 1386 01:01:16,440 --> 01:01:19,760 to the next year that way you might see 1387 01:01:19,760 --> 01:01:22,740 the expenditure fund of some of these 1388 01:01:22,740 --> 01:01:25,020 funds in next fiscal year but know that 1389 01:01:25,020 --> 01:01:26,520 they will not be double budgeted we 1390 01:01:26,520 --> 01:01:28,859 would essentially capture any unspent 1391 01:01:28,859 --> 01:01:30,480 money and roll them forward and then 1392 01:01:30,480 --> 01:01:32,220 that would decrease the amount that we 1393 01:01:32,220 --> 01:01:36,170 request in next year's budget 1394 01:01:36,180 --> 01:01:39,900 some of these questions but since the topic is on I was wondering is it 1395 01:01:39,900 --> 01:01:42,299 typical for us to 1396 01:01:42,299 --> 01:01:42,960 um 1397 01:01:42,960 --> 01:01:46,079 call out in a contract which funding 1398 01:01:46,079 --> 01:01:48,780 source we're using to to pay for it it 1399 01:01:48,780 --> 01:01:51,720 seemed uh like an unusually because of 1400 01:01:51,720 --> 01:01:53,700 the fact that we said we were pulling 1401 01:01:53,700 --> 01:01:55,740 from a certain fund it could put 1402 01:01:55,740 --> 01:01:57,359 contracts in Jeopardy so I'm wondering 1403 01:01:57,359 --> 01:01:59,339 is that typical I mean we never see the 1404 01:01:59,339 --> 01:02:01,079 contract so I I wouldn't know what's 1405 01:02:01,079 --> 01:02:03,000 included in them or not but it seemed 1406 01:02:03,000 --> 01:02:05,280 unusual to me that that piece of 1407 01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:07,740 information was part of the country is 1408 01:02:07,740 --> 01:02:09,359 really a result of the prior 1409 01:02:09,359 --> 01:02:10,920 conversations that we had with the city 1410 01:02:10,920 --> 01:02:13,020 council if you remember what we were 1411 01:02:13,020 --> 01:02:16,260 doing before is we were we would do our 1412 01:02:16,260 --> 01:02:18,420 normal procurement process where we 1413 01:02:18,420 --> 01:02:20,220 would get requests for that contract 1414 01:02:20,220 --> 01:02:22,880 what we wanted to do was change that 1415 01:02:22,880 --> 01:02:26,579 process and and depending on the nature 1416 01:02:26,579 --> 01:02:28,380 of the service the funding source is 1417 01:02:28,380 --> 01:02:30,660 different for example uh not the 1418 01:02:30,660 --> 01:02:32,160 contracts we're talking about have a 1419 01:02:32,160 --> 01:02:35,280 developer that is 1420 01:02:35,280 --> 01:02:37,500 um into that one reimbursement agreement 1421 01:02:37,500 --> 01:02:38,700 and so they're not getting that 1422 01:02:38,700 --> 01:02:40,260 expedited service but they're getting 1423 01:02:40,260 --> 01:02:42,960 that normal service however 1424 01:02:42,960 --> 01:02:45,780 in our normal capacity we don't be paid 1425 01:02:45,780 --> 01:02:48,299 for by those normal planning fees that 1426 01:02:48,299 --> 01:02:50,520 you established each year in that RNR 1427 01:02:50,520 --> 01:02:53,099 fee schedule and so in order so we can 1428 01:02:53,099 --> 01:02:54,660 actually where you have a developer 1429 01:02:54,660 --> 01:02:56,400 coming in and saying we will pay for 1430 01:02:56,400 --> 01:02:58,260 expedited service we know that that will 1431 01:02:58,260 --> 01:03:00,839 cost more and more structure uh what 1432 01:03:00,839 --> 01:03:02,700 vendors we're providing what service and 1433 01:03:02,700 --> 01:03:04,980 which bucket they were a funding source 1434 01:03:04,980 --> 01:03:07,799 identified in them or is it just because 1435 01:03:07,799 --> 01:03:11,819 we're talking about uh the reimbursable 1436 01:03:11,819 --> 01:03:14,760 or or a an account or an account that 1437 01:03:14,760 --> 01:03:17,460 does have reimbursable portion right 1438 01:03:17,460 --> 01:03:20,220 so exactly where we're funding it from 1439 01:03:20,220 --> 01:03:22,079 but we were very clear in the materials 1440 01:03:22,079 --> 01:03:24,359 that we provided to council where the 1441 01:03:24,359 --> 01:03:27,359 funding source would come from but 1442 01:03:27,359 --> 01:03:28,920 um again for all for our development 1443 01:03:28,920 --> 01:03:30,540 related kind items whether that's the 1444 01:03:30,540 --> 01:03:32,940 reimbursement account or whether 1445 01:03:32,940 --> 01:03:35,400 um they are paying our normal fees okay 1446 01:03:35,400

February 1612 01:10:23,580 --> 01:10:27,179 of 2022 where uh there was a public 1613 01:10:27,179 --> 01:10:29,219 hearing uh there was a lot of discussion 1614 01:10:29,219 --> 01:10:31,920 and the Planning Commission asked that 1615 01:10:31,920 --> 01:10:34,860 or they continued the item and asked the 1616 01:10:34,860 --> 01:10:37,980 applicant to provide shade studies which 1617 01:10:37,980 --> 01:10:40,620 are basically diagrams that show how the 1618 01:10:40,620 --> 01:10:42,840 project is going to cast Shadows 1619 01:10:42,840 --> 01:10:45,140 particularly on the neighboring property 1620 01:10:45,140 --> 01:10:47,640 the project then came back to the 1621 01:10:47,640 --> 01:10:48,840 Planning Commission with those shade 1622 01:10:48,840 --> 01:10:51,739 studies in March of 2022 1623 01:10:51,739 --> 01:10:59,480 at that time the neighbor who is now the appellant also provided some 1624 01:10:59,480 --> 01:11:01,800 concepts for how the design should be 1625 01:11:01,800 --> 01:11:04,080 changed the Planning Commission took all 1626 01:11:04,080 --> 01:11:06,540 that information and recommended that 1627 01:11:06,540 --> 01:11:09,840 the applicant do another redesign of the 1628 01:11:09,840 --> 01:11:14,960 project to try to incorporate as many of the ideas that were discussed 1629 01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:17,580 and I have slides coming up that are 1630 01:11:17,580 --> 01:11:19,620 going to show how the project has 1631 01:11:19,620 --> 01:11:20,880 evolved 1632 01:11:20,880 --> 01:11:23,580 the applicant then updated the plans 1633 01:11:23,580 --> 01:11:26,580 again uh came back to the Arc in October 1634 01:11:26,580 --> 01:11:28,440 and then back to the Planning Commission 1635 01:11:28,440 --> 01:11:32,100 in November uh at the end of November 1636 01:11:32,100 --> 01:11:34,199 the Planning Commission 1637 01:11:34,199 --> 01:11:36,780 looked at the redesign uh and did end up 1638 01:11:36,780 --> 01:11:41,450 voting 5-1 to approve the project 1639 01:11:41,460 --> 01:11:44,880 at that point uh the neighbor filed a 1640 01:11:44,880 --> 01:11:46,100 timely appeal 1641 01:11:46,100 --> 01:11:49,320 and that appeals at the Planning 1642 01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:50,460 Commission are brought to the city 1643 01:11:50,460 --> 01:11:53,159 council and in their appeal documents 1644 01:11:53,159 --> 01:11:54,620 the Appellate 1645 01:11:54,620 --> 01:11:56,940 listed a number of concerns which we 1646 01:11:56,940 --> 01:11:59,520 tried to provide a a snapshot of on the 1647 01:11:59,520 --> 01:12:01,140 screen and in the staff report 1648 01:12:01,140 --> 01:12:03,360 uh 1649 01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:06,960 the the applicant has made uh clear at 1650 01:12:06,960 --> 01:12:12,179 the Planning Commission level and in the uh appeal that uh they believe 1651 01:12:12,179 --> 01:12:14,159 there are opportunities to design a 1652 01:12:14,159 --> 01:12:17,580 house in a different way uh that will 1653 01:12:17,580 --> 01:12:20,820 reduce impacts on on their property and 1654 01:12:20,820 --> 01:12:23,580 uh the appellant has a presentation and 1655 01:12:23,580 --> 01:12:28,310 we'll go through those arguments 1656 01:12:28,320 --> 01:12:31,140 now go over uh some more details about 1657 01:12:31,140 --> 01:12:33,060 the project and how we got to this point 1658 01:12:33,060 --> 01:12:36,120 uh we'll have some uh plans and images 1659 01:12:36,120 --> 01:12:38,400 that I can come back to at any time if 1660 01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:41,219 the council has has questions on them 1661 01:12:41,219 --> 01:12:48,239 this is uh just a street view of of of the home and Andy uh 1662 01:12:48,239 --> 01:12:51,719 appellants home as well uh you want to 1663 01:12:51,719 --> 01:12:54,000 come back to this just to uh have have 1664 01:12:54,000 --> 01:12:56,699 this image up 1665 01:12:56,699 --> 01:12:58,679 this is that same snapshot of the 1666 01:12:58,679 --> 01:13:03,000 existing home but also uh uh the view of 1667 01:13:03,000 --> 01:13:06,239 the Planning Commission approved uh new 1668 01:13:06,239 --> 01:13:09,060 home so the existing home is a little 1669 01:13:09,060 --> 01:13:12,840 under 1900 square feet it has an far of 1670 01:13:12,840 --> 01:13:16,460 0.32 and far is the floor area ratio 1671 01:13:16,460 --> 01:13:19,800 that is the sum of all of the areas of 1672 01:13:19,800 --> 01:13:21,380 all the floors including the garage 1673 01:13:21,380 --> 01:13:23,820 divided by the lot area 1674 01:13:23,820 --> 01:13:26,940 uh the maximum allowed far for this 1675 01:13:26,940 --> 01:13:28,860 particular site based on our zoning is 1676 01:13:28,860 --> 01:13:31,080 0.55 1677 01:13:31,080 --> 01:13:34,260 the Planning Commission approved project 1678 01:13:34,260 --> 01:13:37,739 is a little over 3000 square feet of of 1679 01:13:37,739 --> 01:13:39,840 home again that's including the garage 1680 01:13:39,840 --> 01:13:43,920 and a 0.53 far so slightly under the 1681 01:13:43,920 --> 01:13:47,750 maximum that's allowed 1682 01:13:47,760 --> 01:13:50,640 this is a site plan so this is a bird's 1683 01:13:50,640 --> 01:13:53,159 eye view of the site again using the 1684 01:13:53,159 --> 01:13:55,440 same color coding on the applicant's 1685 01:13:55,440 --> 01:13:57,600 property in in 1686 01:13:57,600 --> 01:14:00,900 for easier reference the lighter orange 1687 01:14:00,900 --> 01:14:03,480 shading is the outline of the first 1688 01:14:03,480 --> 01:14:06,420 floor which is predominantly the 1689 01:14:06,420 --> 01:14:07,500 existing home 1690 01:14:07,500 --> 01:14:10,860 the darker orange is shows the second 1691 01:14:10,860 --> 01:14:16,610 floor which is is all new 1692 01:14:16,620 --> 01:14:18,540 these are the building elevations of the 1693 01:14:18,540 --> 01:14:20,340 proposed home these elevations are 1694 01:14:20,340 --> 01:14:22,380 two-dimensional views of the front the 1695 01:14:22,380 --> 01:14:24,719 rear and the two sides again we're 1696 01:14:24,719 --> 01:14:26,760 showing this so that we can come back to 1697 01:14:26,760 --> 01:14:28,500 it if the council wants to discuss them 1698 01:14:28,500 --> 01:14:30,960 we're going to be talking most about the 1699 01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:33,420 north side that is the side that faces 1700 01:14:33,420 --> 01:14:34,880 the 1701 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:39,000 appellance property that elevation is in 1702 01:14:39,000 --> 01:14:43,250 the bottom right hand corner 1703 01:14:43,260 --> 01:14:46,020 the applicant also provided renderings 1704 01:14:46,020 --> 01:14:48,480 of of the pro of of the project which 1705 01:14:48,480 --> 01:14:51,360 are three-dimensional views uh of of 1706 01:14:51,360 --> 01:14:53,820 what the project would look like I just 1707 01:14:53,820 --> 01:14:56,940 want to note it is very common in uh in 1708 01:14:56,940 --> 01:14:59,400 renderings that because it's a model out 1709 01:14:59,400 --> 01:15:01,920 of a computer that they don't show the 1710 01:15:01,920 --> 01:15:04,620 neighboring buildings it was not done on 1711 01:15:04,620 --> 01:15:06,900 purpose that's just is the common 1712 01:15:06,900 --> 01:15:12,169 approach 1713 01:15:12,179 --> 01:15:14,460 so the project actually complies with 1714 01:15:14,460 --> 01:15:16,679 all the city's regulations 1715 01:15:16,679 --> 01:15:19,440 but because the project triggered 1716 01:15:19,440 --> 01:15:21,600 needing to go through special review it 1717 01:15:21,600 --> 01:15:23,340 also needs to be found to meet our 1718 01:15:23,340 --> 01:15:25,440 residential design guidelines 1719 01:15:25,440 --> 01:15:28,620 now the guidelines are as they are 1720 01:15:28,620 --> 01:15:30,000 called they are guidelines they are not 1721 01:15:30,000 --> 01:15:32,880 requirements that all need to be met but 1722 01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:35,100 they are a very useful guide for staff 1723 01:15:35,100 --> 01:15:36,780 applicants and the Planning Commission 1724 01:15:36,780 --> 01:15:40,080 in order to judge whether a residential 1725 01:15:40,080 --> 01:15:42,719 Edition should be approved 1726 01:15:42,719 --> 01:15:45,060 just for context the the guidelines were 1727 01:15:45,060 --> 01:15:47,760 adopted by Council in 2010 1728 01:15:47,760 --> 01:15:51,120 and there's there's over 150 1729 01:15:51,120 --> 01:15:52,500 different 1730 01:15:52,500 --> 01:15:55,080 guidelines in the document so there are 1731 01:15:55,080 --> 01:15:57,179 a lot of them uh they're split up into 1732 01:15:57,179 --> 01:16:00,360 13 sections I put a handful of the most 1733 01:16:00,360 --> 01:16:02,300 relevant ones uh on the screen 1734 01:16:02,300 --> 01:16:04,800 neighborhood compatibility architectural 1735 01:16:04,800 --> 01:16:07,320 style second floor treatment 1736 01:16:07,320 --> 01:16:09,600 the the one that is the largest issue in 1737 01:16:09,600 --> 01:16:11,460 this case is privacy and solar access 1738 01:16:11,460 --> 01:16:14,100 and that is the one that the appellant 1739 01:16:14,100 --> 01:16:17,640 is is Raising and giving the most 1740 01:16:17,640 --> 01:16:20,520 attention to and two of them in 1741 01:16:20,520 --> 01:16:22,500 particular which the appellant has in in 1742 01:16:22,500 --> 01:16:25,199 their package is uh on the screen and 1743 01:16:25,199 --> 01:16:28,380 that is uh the the guideline calls for 1744 01:16:28,380 --> 01:16:30,840 the project to minimize Shadow and 1745 01:16:30,840 --> 01:16:37,790 privacy impacts on adjacent properties 1746 01:16:37,800 --> 01:16:40,020 so through these six public hearings 1747 01:16:40,020 --> 01:16:42,600 leading to this appeal the arc and 1748 01:16:42,600 --> 01:16:44,400 Planning Commission reviewed the project 1749 01:16:44,400 --> 01:16:46,500 for compliance with all of the design 1750 01:16:46,500 --> 01:16:49,500 guidelines and spent arguably most of 1751 01:16:49,500 --> 01:16:51,239 the time talking about topics that 1752 01:16:51,239 --> 01:16:55,080 related to shade and privacy 1753 01:16:55,080 --> 01:16:57,000 the Planning Commission and Arc asked 1754 01:16:57,000 --> 01:16:59,219 for a number of changes and the 1755 01:16:59,219 --> 01:17:01,440 predominantly the the major ones are 1756 01:17:01,440 --> 01:17:03,179 listed on the screen they're also in the 1757 01:17:03,179 --> 01:17:05,280 written staff report and they all go 1758 01:17:05,280 --> 01:17:07,380 towards addressing the mass of the 1759 01:17:07,380 --> 01:17:10,920 second floor and that size and volume of 1760 01:17:10,920 --> 01:17:13,380 the second floor is directly related to 1761 01:17:13,380 --> 01:17:15,000 The Shadow impacts that the project will 1762 01:17:15,000 --> 01:17:18,120 have as well as privacy impacts 1763 01:17:18,120 --> 01:17:20,580 I have slides with imagery that shows 1764 01:17:20,580 --> 01:17:22,980 how each uh what each one of these look 1765 01:17:22,980 --> 01:17:24,020 like 1766 01:17:24,020 --> 01:17:27,900 but in general the the applicant has 1767 01:17:27,900 --> 01:17:30,780 moved the Second Story further away from 1768 01:17:30,780 --> 01:17:34,199 uh from the property line with the 1769 01:17:34,199 --> 01:17:37,500 appellant that's item number one they've 1770 01:17:37,500 --> 01:17:39,360 reduced the length of the second story 1771 01:17:39,360 --> 01:17:43,550 that faces the uh 1772 01:17:43,560 --> 01:17:45,840 property line of the of the appellant 1773 01:17:45,840 --> 01:17:47,760 and they've reduced that total height of 1774 01:17:47,760 --> 01:17:51,179 the building itself as well to address 1775 01:17:51,179 --> 01:17:52,800 privacy they've also taken out the 1776 01:17:52,800 --> 01:17:54,239 Second Story deck and they've modified 1777 01:17:54,239 --> 01:18:00,950 the windows that are facing the appellant's property 1778 01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:03,540 so I'll go through and try to show what 1779 01:18:03,540 --> 01:18:06,480 those changes look like and mean on the 1780 01:18:06,480 --> 01:18:09,480 proposed front elevation so this is 1781 01:18:09,480 --> 01:18:11,699 viewing it from the street you'll see 1782 01:18:11,699 --> 01:18:13,440 there's uh 1783 01:18:13,440 --> 01:18:16,199 on the left is the design that the 1784 01:18:16,199 --> 01:18:18,960 Planning Commission saw in March this is 1785 01:18:18,960 --> 01:18:22,080 the the project designed that the 1786 01:18:22,080 --> 01:18:23,699 Planning Commission asked to be 1787 01:18:23,699 --> 01:18:26,640 redesigned and changed the one on the 1788 01:18:26,640 --> 01:18:28,980 right is what came back to the Planning 1789 01:18:28,980 --> 01:18:31,140 Commission and was eventually approved 1790 01:18:31,140 --> 01:18:32,340 uh 1791 01:18:32,340 --> 01:18:34,800 you'll see on both of them there's an 1792 01:18:34,800 --> 01:18:37,800 orange line that is dashed that is our 1793 01:18:37,800 --> 01:18:40,500 daylight plane which is a guideline 1794 01:18:40,500 --> 01:18:43,320 and it basically calls for if you're 1795 01:18:43,320 --> 01:18:46,260 going to have a taller building 1796 01:18:46,260 --> 01:18:48,300 basically the setback for the taller 1797 01:18:48,300 --> 01:18:50,340 part of the building needs to be further 1798 01:18:50,340 --> 01:18:54,239 away originally the March 2020 2022 1799 01:18:54,239 --> 01:18:56,219 design had the first and second floor 1800 01:18:56,219 --> 01:18:59,699 basically going straight up so that had 1801 01:18:59,699 --> 01:19:02,159 the massing of the second floor very 1802 01:19:02,159 --> 01:19:04,380 close to the neighbor thus having more 1803 01:19:04,380 --> 01:19:07,920 Shadow impact the revised plan pushes 1804 01:19:07,920 --> 01:19:09,600 the Second Story back the the first 1805 01:19:09,600 --> 01:19:10,800 story is still where it is because it's 1806 01:19:10,800 --> 01:19:13,320 existing house but the second story 1807 01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:16,860 starts about an additional 1808 01:19:16,860 --> 01:19:19,980 four feet in and that meets our daylight 1809 01:19:19,980 --> 01:19:22,739 plane guideline again the applicant made 1810 01:19:22,739 --> 01:19:24,540 that change at the direction of the 1811 01:19:24,540 --> 01:19:26,820 Planning Commission 1812 01:19:26,820 --> 01:19:29,219 as I noted earlier there's about a two 1813 01:19:29,219 --> 01:19:35,340 foot reduction in the overall height of the house the applicant has made the 1814 01:19:35,340 --> 01:19:37,020 plate Heights of the second floor the 1815 01:19:37,020 --> 01:19:38,699 plate Heights being the ceiling height 1816 01:19:38,699 --> 01:19:40,320 uh 1817 01:19:40,320 --> 01:19:44,060 pretty much as low as you can 1818 01:19:44,060 --> 01:19:48,659 it does it is at I believe seven foot 1819 01:19:48,659 --> 01:19:52,380 nine inches which for a a new house is 1820 01:19:52,380 --> 01:19:55,140 relatively low at the corners of the of 1821 01:19:55,140 --> 01:19:57,179 the room so from the front elevation 1822 01:19:57,179 --> 01:19:59,580 those are changes that were made 1823 01:19:59,580 --> 01:20:03,300 then for the site elevation 1824 01:20:03,300 --> 01:20:06,300 the again on the left that's the that's 1825 01:20:06,300 --> 01:20:07,500 the project that went to Planning 1826 01:20:07,500 --> 01:20:10,380 Commission in March on the right is the 1827 01:20:10,380 --> 01:20:15,060 redesign uh clearly the length of that 1828 01:20:15,060 --> 01:20:19,260 second story in March was was uh 1829 01:20:19,260 --> 01:20:22,320 was cut down approximately shown again 1830 01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:25,380 in the in the orange Dash lines was the 1831 01:20:25,380 --> 01:20:27,480 mass and the length of the Second Story 1832 01:20:27,480 --> 01:20:32,820 back in March it it it was cut back so 1833 01:20:32,820 --> 01:20:35,880 that again is going to uh reduce the 1834 01:20:35,880 --> 01:20:37,640 shadow impacts on the neighbor 1835 01:20:37,640 --> 01:20:39,900 talked already about about the reduced 1836 01:20:39,900 --> 01:20:41,580 height you can see it on on this angle 1837 01:20:41,580 --> 01:20:43,560 as well and then two other things to 1838 01:20:43,560 --> 01:20:46,020 address privacy impacts the the plan 1839 01:20:46,020 --> 01:20:48,420 used to have a second story deck that on 1840 01:20:48,420 --> 01:20:51,480 the rear that's taken out and all of the 1841 01:20:51,480 --> 01:20:54,960 windows now on this side are uh our 1842 01:20:54,960 --> 01:20:56,940 clear story Windows which are windows 1843 01:20:56,940 --> 01:20:58,620 whose plate height or bottom of the 1844 01:20:58,620 --> 01:21:00,719 window is about 1845 01:21:00,719 --> 01:21:03,360 five feet eight inches the idea is it 1846 01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:05,460 still gives light into the room it could 1847 01:21:05,460 --> 01:21:08,159 give air circulation but if you're just 1848 01:21:08,159 --> 01:21:09,960 standing in the room you're not really 1849 01:21:09,960 --> 01:21:11,100 going to have a view into your 1850 01:21:11,100 --> 01:21:14,219 neighbor's yard again these were things 1851 01:21:14,219 --> 01:21:16,020 asked of the applicant by the Planning 1852 01:21:16,020 --> 01:21:19,260 Commission to reduce the impacts on on 1853 01:21:19,260 --> 01:21:22,490 the appellant's property 1854 01:21:22,500 --> 01:21:23,880 so 1855 01:21:23,880 --> 01:21:27,060 after seeing all of these uh all of 1856 01:21:27,060 --> 01:21:29,400 these changes 1857 01:21:29,400 --> 01:21:31,320 through the hearings the Planning 1858 01:21:31,320 --> 01:21:32,520 Commission ended up approving the 1859 01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:36,179 project on a 5-1 vote and the Planning 1860 01:21:36,179 --> 01:21:37,800 Commission on these type of projects are 1861 01:21:37,800 --> 01:21:40,800 required to make findings of approval 1862 01:21:40,800 --> 01:21:42,900 and there are some excerpts of some of 1863 01:21:42,900 --> 01:21:45,360 those findings uh on on on the slide 1864 01:21:45,360 --> 01:21:47,100 they're all in in the attached 1865 01:21:47,100 --> 01:21:49,199 resolutions and also referencing the 1866 01:21:49,199 --> 01:21:52,140 staff report but notably the Planning 1867 01:21:52,140 --> 01:21:55,020 Commission in their judgment found that 1868 01:21:55,020 --> 01:21:57,840 the project as redesigned will not 1869 01:21:57,840 --> 01:21:59,460 unreasonably 1870 01:21:59,460 --> 01:22:01,640 restrict or interfere with light and air 1871 01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:04,679 on on the property or on other property 1872 01:22:04,679 --> 01:22:05,880 in the neighborhood 1873 01:22:05,880 --> 01:22:07,739 that was the planning commission's way 1874 01:22:07,739 --> 01:22:08,940 of saying 1875 01:22:08,940 --> 01:22:11,340 we do hear that the appellant has 1876 01:22:11,340 --> 01:22:14,340 problems and would like more changes but 1877 01:22:14,340 --> 01:22:16,440 we do recognize the applicant has made 1878 01:22:16,440 --> 01:22:18,540 changes and the Planning Commission 1879 01:22:18,540 --> 01:22:23,820 viewed that uh the impacts left on the 1880 01:22:23,820 --> 01:22:28,080 appellant were not unreasonable 1881 01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:31,320 that was their their findings and it's 1882 01:22:31,320 --> 01:22:33,360 important to note uh that doesn't mean 1883 01:22:33,360 --> 01:22:35,340 the Planning Commission made a 1884 01:22:35,340 --> 01:22:38,040 conclusion that there are no impacts uh 1885 01:22:38,040 --> 01:22:39,179 it's pretty much accepted and 1886 01:22:39,179 --> 01:22:40,140 acknowledged that if you're going to 1887 01:22:40,140 --> 01:22:42,540 have a two-story home next to a 1888 01:22:42,540 --> 01:22:44,400 one-story home there are going to be 1889 01:22:44,400 --> 01:22:46,260 some shading impacts the Planning 1890 01:22:46,260 --> 01:22:48,480 Commission made the finding that uh 1891 01:22:48,480 --> 01:22:50,880 because the guidelines were met and 1892 01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:53,100 design changes have been made that there 1893 01:22:53,100 --> 01:22:56,040 won't be unreasonable impacts 1894 01:22:56,040 --> 01:22:59,880 uh the app the appellant uh will make 1895 01:22:59,880 --> 01:23:01,500 the case for why the planning 1896 01:23:01,500 --> 01:23:04,800 commissions uh conclusion was not right 1897 01:23:04,800 --> 01:23:09,850 and why more changes should be made 1898 01:23:09,860 --> 01:23:14,040 this slide is a necessary slide for all 1899 01:23:14,040 --> 01:23:16,260 land use entitlements under the 1900 01:23:16,260 --> 01:23:18,900 California Environmental Quality act 1901 01:23:18,900 --> 01:23:22,980 every action made at a hearing needs to 1902 01:23:22,980 --> 01:23:26,100 have a secret determination this project 1903 01:23:26,100 --> 01:23:28,739 uh whether you're proven in this form 1904 01:23:28,739 --> 01:23:29,880 whether you approve it with 1905 01:23:29,880 --> 01:23:33,179 modifications or even if if you don't if 1906 01:23:33,179 --> 01:23:35,219 you if you turn the project down it is 1907 01:23:35,219 --> 01:23:38,760 exempt from SQL review which which the 1908 01:23:38,760 --> 01:23:42,060 Planning Commission agreed with 1909 01:23:42,060 --> 01:23:46,260 so moving into the conclusion uh the 1910 01:23:46,260 --> 01:23:48,900 recommendation for tonight is that this 1911 01:23:48,900 --> 01:23:50,159 is at the council hold the public 1912 01:23:50,159 --> 01:23:52,020 hearing and adopt the resolution 1913 01:23:52,020 --> 01:23:55,260 approving the permits that the applicant 1914 01:23:55,260 --> 01:23:57,900 has asked for uh this is effectively 1915 01:23:57,900 --> 01:24:01,320 turning down the appeal and uh this does 1916 01:24:01,320 --> 01:24:02,699 align with the planning commission's 1917 01:24:02,699 --> 01:24:04,920 action 1918 01:24:04,920 --> 01:24:07,620 as noted

windows they are able to see into 2004 01:28:16,080 --> 01:28:19,380 our yard because they are windows so we 2005 01:28:19,380 --> 01:28:21,060 spent a lot of time in our yard our 2006 01:28:21,060 --> 01:28:22,460 nine-year-old daughter plays in our yard 2007 01:28:22,460 --> 01:28:25,380 I have a significant concern with the 2008 01:28:25,380 --> 01:28:28,380 Privacy that's uh that we have to deal 2009 01:28:28,380 --> 01:28:33,410 with here 2010 01:28:33,420 --> 01:28:36,480 so this is an image of our side yard 2011 01:28:36,480 --> 01:28:38,699 side backyard taken from the rear of the 2012 01:28:38,699 --> 01:28:39,840 property 2013 01:28:39,840 --> 01:28:41,760 that shows 2014 01:28:41,760 --> 01:28:44,340 all of our outdoor living space in 2015 01:28:44,340 --> 01:28:49,199 relation to the project site there it's uh 2016 01:28:49,199 --> 01:28:52,980 very very close proximity of their house 2017 01:28:52,980 --> 01:28:54,300 on the right 2018 01:28:54,300 --> 01:28:56,940 and The Morning Sun that filters into 2019 01:28:56,940 --> 01:28:59,100 our yard and into our home 2020 01:28:59,100 --> 01:29:02,219 as design will essentially be snuffed 2021 01:29:02,219 --> 01:29:05,520 out by that very close uh 2022 01:29:05,520 --> 01:29:11,330 Second Story on the North wing 2023 01:29:11,340 --> 01:29:13,920 um some interior photos to demonstrate 2024 01:29:13,920 --> 01:29:16,679 how that sunlight coming in the backyard 2025 01:29:16,679 --> 01:29:18,440 Daylights into the home 2026 01:29:18,440 --> 01:29:20,639 provides you know that daylighting and 2027 01:29:20,639 --> 01:29:24,420 the warmth and this is really a 2028 01:29:24,420 --> 01:29:26,940 you a critical functional element of the 2029 01:29:26,940 --> 01:29:29,159 design of the home 2030 01:29:29,159 --> 01:29:33,830 and the enjoyment of the home 2031 01:29:33,840 --> 01:29:35,340 there's a living room on the left dining 2032 01:29:35,340 --> 01:29:37,020 room on the right and shared large 2033 01:29:37,020 --> 01:29:44,209 windows to the outdoor living space 2034 01:29:44,219 --> 01:29:46,980 I want to get back to the proximity of 2035 01:29:46,980 --> 01:29:49,860 the lease home next to us how close it 2036 01:29:49,860 --> 01:29:52,020 really is you can see in the middle 2037 01:29:52,020 --> 01:29:53,940 photo there's the shared property line 2038 01:29:53,940 --> 01:29:56,040 fence and it's only a four foot side 2039 01:29:56,040 --> 01:29:57,600 setback 2040 01:29:57,600 --> 01:30:00,060 and you can see the one on the right I 2041 01:30:00,060 --> 01:30:01,739 mean there's our yard and their house 2042 01:30:01,739 --> 01:30:03,420 even as a one story 2043 01:30:03,420 --> 01:30:06,540 is already right on top of our yard and 2044 01:30:06,540 --> 01:30:08,000 if you're gonna build up from there 2045 01:30:08,000 --> 01:30:10,380 that's where the significant impacts 2046 01:30:10,380 --> 01:30:17,870 occur 2047 01:30:17,880 --> 01:30:19,620 okay this was showed in the staff 2048 01:30:19,620 --> 01:30:21,480 presentation but the 2049 01:30:21,480 --> 01:30:23,639 March 2022 2050 01:30:23,639 --> 01:30:26,100 design on the left with no daylight 2051 01:30:26,100 --> 01:30:27,179 playing 2052 01:30:27,179 --> 01:30:29,760 was that was rejected due to excessive 2053 01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:32,340 shading and in the new design on the 2054 01:30:32,340 --> 01:30:35,460 right so the biggest issue with the 2055 01:30:35,460 --> 01:30:39,600 shading is the top portion the the roof 2056 01:30:39,600 --> 01:30:42,719 pitch you can see it's 17 feet three 2057 01:30:42,719 --> 01:30:45,239 inches from the property line on the the 2058 01:30:45,239 --> 01:30:47,460 original design on the left and then 2059 01:30:47,460 --> 01:30:49,440 that was moved over only two feet to 2060 01:30:49,440 --> 01:30:52,560 19-4 by the daylight plane 2061 01:30:52,560 --> 01:30:54,320 so 2062 01:30:54,320 --> 01:30:56,820 that shadow 2063 01:30:56,820 --> 01:30:59,219 you know only moved over two feet it 2064 01:30:59,219 --> 01:31:07,490 doesn't make a big impact 2065 01:31:07,500 --> 01:31:13,320 additionally their house sits on a 2066 01:31:13,320 --> 01:31:15,600 higher elevation than our house the 2067 01:31:15,600 --> 01:31:17,280 street is an upward slope going from our 2068 01:31:17,280 --> 01:31:20,040 house to their house and that even the 2069 01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:22,380 Shadows cast are even longer in length 2070 01:31:22,380 --> 01:31:27,890 than normal 2071 01:31:27,900 --> 01:31:31,199 so this is just to show that uh to make 2072 01:31:31,199 --> 01:31:37,010 the comparison between the two designs 2073 01:31:37,020 --> 01:31:39,260 and then this is 2074 01:31:39,260 --> 01:31:41,340 on the right 2075 01:31:41,340 --> 01:31:44,100 these are Shadow diagrams 2076 01:31:44,100 --> 01:31:45,780 from the um 2077 01:31:45,780 --> 01:31:49,320 from the architect showing that you know 2078 01:31:49,320 --> 01:31:51,840 the left top left is the original design 2079 01:31:51,840 --> 01:31:55,320 and the top right is you can see the 2080 01:31:55,320 --> 01:31:59,100 second floor pitch shadow goes down and 2081 01:31:59,100 --> 01:32:01,139 it's 44 feet six inches the original 2082 01:32:01,139 --> 01:32:03,480 design that was rejected for excessive 2083 01:32:03,480 --> 01:32:06,060 shading casts a shadow in the winter at 2084 01:32:06,060 --> 01:32:09,600 12 p.m 44 feet 6 inches the updated 2085 01:32:09,600 --> 01:32:11,159 design 2086 01:32:11,159 --> 01:32:14,699 at 12 p.m winner cast a shadow length of 2087 01:32:14,699 --> 01:32:17,340 43 feet 2 inches 2088 01:32:17,340 --> 01:32:19,440 it's only a 16 inch difference three 2089 01:32:19,440 --> 01:32:21,060 percent 2090 01:32:21,060 --> 01:32:23,880 they were directed to minimize the 2091 01:32:23,880 --> 01:32:26,520 shadow impacts and the daylight plane 2092 01:32:26,520 --> 01:32:28,920 implementation this proves did not 2093 01:32:28,920 --> 01:32:30,659 accomplish that 2094 01:32:30,659 --> 01:32:32,460 but somehow the Planning Commission 2095 01:32:32,460 --> 01:32:34,139 approved it anyway 2096 01:32:34,139 --> 01:32:39,719 16 inches on a 44 foot Shadow that's a three percent difference that 2097 01:32:39,719 --> 01:32:42,659 is negligible that is 2098 01:32:42,659 --> 01:32:48,110 you know almost nothing 2099 01:32:48,120 --> 01:32:51,360 and then as they were directed to 2100 01:32:51,360 --> 01:32:53,400 minimize the shadow impacts per the 2101 01:32:53,400 --> 01:32:56,480 language of the design guidelines 2102 01:32:56,480 --> 01:32:59,580 3.13.1 minimize Shadow impacts on 2103 01:32:59,580 --> 01:33:01,320 adjacent properties designed second 2104 01:33:01,320 --> 01:33:03,239 floor volumes to minimize 2105 01:33:03,239 --> 01:33:05,940 Sun access to Living Spaces and actively 2106 01:33:05,940 --> 01:33:10,440 used outdoor areas on adjacent homes 2107 01:33:10,440 --> 01:33:13,380 so they did not minimize the shadow 2108 01:33:13,380 --> 01:33:14,880 impacts with the daylight plane 2109 01:33:14,880 --> 01:33:18,179 impotation is my point here 2110 01:33:18,179 --> 01:33:20,100 um also going back to the privacy 2111 01:33:20,100 --> 01:33:21,960 concerns that conflicts with the other 2112 01:33:21,960 --> 01:33:24,239 daylight plane minimize privacy 2113 01:33:24,239 --> 01:33:26,460 intrusion on adjacent residences so I 2114 01:33:26,460 --> 01:33:27,719 don't think they've accomplished either 2115 01:33:27,719 --> 01:33:31,129 of these 2116 01:33:31,139 --> 01:33:33,360 and then 2117 01:33:33,360 --> 01:33:36,719 I want to say there was a the staff made 2118 01:33:36,719 --> 01:33:40,440 a reference to a sketch that we provided 2119 01:33:40,440 --> 01:33:42,960 from the 2120 01:33:42,960 --> 01:33:45,480 original design 2121 01:33:45,480 --> 01:33:47,880 that they say that they've made they've 2122 01:33:47,880 --> 01:33:49,320 basically followed with their new design 2123 01:33:49,320 --> 01:33:52,260 that was before 2124 01:33:52,260 --> 01:33:55,560 we saw the daylight plane of the design 2125 01:33:55,560 --> 01:33:59,159 with it or we saw the shadow study with 2126 01:33:59,159 --> 01:34:00,900 the design of the daylight plane 2127 01:34:00,900 --> 01:34:02,880 implementation before we knew the 2128 01:34:02,880 --> 01:34:05,159 daylight plane implementation did not 2129 01:34:05,159 --> 01:34:07,860 reduce the shading so 2130 01:34:07,860 --> 01:34:17,689 once I saw that everything changed 2131 01:34:17,699 --> 01:34:25,750 so 2132 01:34:25,760 --> 01:34:29,159 I have demonstrated to you that you know 2133 01:34:29,159 --> 01:34:30,659 the daylight plane implementation did 2134 01:34:30,659 --> 01:34:32,580 not minimize the shadow 2135 01:34:32,580 --> 01:34:35,699 uh impacts to our property 2136 01:34:35,699 --> 01:34:38,699 um at no point during the architecture 2137 01:34:38,699 --> 01:34:39,780 review or the Planning Commission 2138 01:34:39,780 --> 01:34:41,780 meetings did the project architect 2139 01:34:41,780 --> 01:34:44,460 demonstrate that 2140 01:34:44,460 --> 01:34:47,340 this new design did not demonstrate did 2141 01:34:47,340 --> 01:34:50,340 not quantify that it actually 2142 01:34:50,340 --> 01:34:53,340 did improve the shading impact I 2143 01:34:53,340 --> 01:34:54,840 compared the old design and the new 2144 01:34:54,840 --> 01:34:57,480 design he has never done that he has 2145 01:34:57,480 --> 01:35:00,060 never proved to anyone the Planning 2146 01:35:00,060 --> 01:35:01,020 Commission 2147 01:35:01,020 --> 01:35:04,260 that there is an actual Improvement in 2148 01:35:04,260 --> 01:35:06,600 the shading impact in this design 2149 01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:08,699 compared to the old design that he 2150 01:35:08,699 --> 01:35:11,639 actually minimized the shadow impact 2151 01:35:11,639 --> 01:35:14,219 I've never seen that and at the last 2152 01:35:14,219 --> 01:35:16,080 Planning Commission call I asked him to 2153 01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:17,760 do that 2154 01:35:17,760 --> 01:35:19,560 he didn't do it the planning 2155 01:35:19,560 --> 01:35:21,600 Commissioners didn't ask him to do that 2156 01:35:21,600 --> 01:35:23,280 in fact they didn't ask him a single 2157 01:35:23,280 --> 01:35:25,920 direct question which I couldn't believe 2158 01:35:25,920 --> 01:35:29,510 based on the new information 2159 01:35:29,520 --> 01:35:33,590 so 2160 01:35:33,600 --> 01:35:36,540 one major concern that I have is that 2161 01:35:36,540 --> 01:35:38,580 every set of architectural plans 2162 01:35:38,580 --> 01:35:40,560 throughout this whole process 2163 01:35:40,560 --> 01:35:42,600 has had 2164 01:35:42,600 --> 01:35:44,820 inaccuracies and flaws in them from the 2165 01:35:44,820 --> 01:35:46,460 very beginning 2166 01:35:46,460 --> 01:35:48,239 and 2167 01:35:48,239 --> 01:35:51,239 I was told by staff that they do not 2168 01:35:51,239 --> 01:35:52,739 have an independent process of 2169 01:35:52,739 --> 01:35:55,199 verification for the validity and 2170 01:35:55,199 --> 01:35:57,060 accuracy of the information provided to 2171 01:35:57,060 --> 01:35:59,400 them by the architect 2172 01:35:59,400 --> 01:36:01,980 there is no verification and they are 2173 01:36:01,980 --> 01:36:03,780 basing their analysis 2174 01:36:03,780 --> 01:36:05,699 on this information from the architect 2175 01:36:05,699 --> 01:36:07,800 and then submitting the recommendations 2176 01:36:07,800 --> 01:36:10,580 accordingly to the Planning Commission 2177 01:36:10,580 --> 01:36:18,229 this is a huge issue 2178 01:36:18,239 --> 01:36:20,840 in March for the March 2022 2179 01:36:20,840 --> 01:36:23,159 Planning Commission meeting 2180 01:36:23,159 --> 01:36:25,260 I brought to the attention of the 2181 01:36:25,260 --> 01:36:27,420 planning department staff multiple 2182 01:36:27,420 --> 01:36:30,179 errors and flaws in that set of plans I 2183 01:36:30,179 --> 01:36:32,940 hired two independent Architects to 2184 01:36:32,940 --> 01:36:35,699 review the plans uh 2185 01:36:35,699 --> 01:36:38,159 examples include measurement between the 2186 01:36:38,159 --> 01:36:41,159 houses were inaccurate that's important 2187 01:36:41,159 --> 01:36:44,219 to the shadow study and the evaluation 2188 01:36:44,219 --> 01:36:47,400 the orientation of the Shadow sir I so 2189 01:36:47,400 --> 01:36:48,719 much apologize it has been 10 minutes 2190 01:36:48,719 --> 01:36:50,159 I'm going to give you 30 seconds which 2191 01:36:50,159 --> 01:36:53,280 I'll do as well to the other side 2192 01:36:53,280 --> 01:36:56,219 um but if you could okay 2193 01:36:56,219 --> 01:37:00,229 presentation back up 2194 01:37:00,239 --> 01:37:02,219 okay 2195 01:37:02,219 --> 01:37:04,679 so the solution that I want to propose 2196 01:37:04,679 --> 01:37:07,860 that would be a shared sacrifice is you 2197 01:37:07,860 --> 01:37:10,260 can see in blue there that you can find 2198 01:37:10,260 --> 01:37:12,179 the Second Story addition to the 2199 01:37:12,179 --> 01:37:15,360 southeast wing it is 2200 01:37:15,360 --> 01:37:17,280 perpendicular to the path of the sun 2201 01:37:17,280 --> 01:37:18,960 where the north Wing is parallel that's 2202 01:37:18,960 --> 01:37:20,580 why it blocks so much sun the 2203 01:37:20,580 --> 01:37:22,860 perpendicular will have less impact on 2204 01:37:22,860 --> 01:37:25,500 us and we don't expect zero impact we 2205 01:37:25,500 --> 01:37:28,739 just don't agree with you know there's 2206 01:37:28,739 --> 01:37:31,500 too much impact now he has room on three 2207 01:37:31,500 --> 01:37:33,179 sides of the house

2255 01:39:40,020 --> 01:39:43,610 back 2256 01:39:43,620 --> 01:39:45,480 okay looks like it's working 2257 01:39:45,480 --> 01:39:47,820 I'm ready whenever uh you 2258 01:39:47,820 --> 01:39:50,629

2262 01:39:57,120 --> 01:40:00,120 you mayor vice mayor and council members 2263 01:40:00,120 --> 01:40:01,920 um there was quite a a lot of 2264 01:40:01,920 --> 01:40:05,040 accusations and I'm going to try to 2265 01:40:05,040 --> 01:40:07,920 answer as most of those as I can 2266 01:40:07,920 --> 01:40:10,380 um but I guess before I get into that 2267 01:40:10,380 --> 01:40:12,239 let me just quickly 2268 01:40:12,239 --> 01:40:15,120 answer the first one we did our best to 2269 01:40:15,120 --> 01:40:16,320 mitigate 2270 01:40:16,320 --> 01:40:20,280 the shading and everything that 2271 01:40:20,280 --> 01:40:23,219 1251 says that we were impacting so I'm 2272 01:40:23,219 --> 01:40:25,560 going to click and as you can see in the 2273 01:40:25,560 --> 01:40:27,540 red that's basically the original design 2274 01:40:27,540 --> 01:40:29,639 the red was what was deleted from the 2275 01:40:29,639 --> 01:40:31,920 design and that includes a deck and also 2276 01:40:31,920 --> 01:40:34,980 the north side and on top of that we 2277 01:40:34,980 --> 01:40:36,600 thought in good faith that we would also 2278 01:40:36,600 --> 01:40:38,520 remove the room too so it would allow 2279 01:40:38,520 --> 01:40:39,840 them a better view from their bedroom 2280 01:40:39,840 --> 01:40:42,600 and so we removed that too and so that's 2281 01:40:42,600 --> 01:40:44,400 what's in the green 2282 01:40:44,400 --> 01:40:47,639 and so what ended up happening is we 2283 01:40:47,639 --> 01:40:49,679 also were at a commission meeting where 2284 01:40:49,679 --> 01:40:52,620 they presented us with a design that 2285 01:40:52,620 --> 01:40:58,199 placed more weight at the south of the building and that's what we also did 2286 01:40:58,199 --> 01:40:59,699 and that's how we ended up with the 2287 01:40:59,699 --> 01:41:03,410 current design 2288 01:41:03,420 --> 01:41:05,639 so this is going to just illustrate that 2289 01:41:05,639 --> 01:41:07,620 a little bit better so that we're all 2290 01:41:07,620 --> 01:41:10,020 clear so the dotted lines is what was 2291 01:41:10,020 --> 01:41:11,820 deleted from the original 2292 01:41:11,820 --> 01:41:13,860 and then also the green line is what was 2293 01:41:13,860 --> 01:41:17,330 added 2294 01:41:17,340 --> 01:41:21,290 so one more time 2295 01:41:21,300 --> 01:41:23,100 so all of that was removed right there 2296 01:41:23,100 --> 01:41:26,040 in the red that's been shaded 2297 01:41:26,040 --> 01:41:28,139 as well as we change the size of those 2298 01:41:28,139 --> 01:41:30,659 windows and over here 2299 01:41:30,659 --> 01:41:32,400 we're going to show that again of the 2300 01:41:32,400 --> 01:41:35,460 total amount that was removed 2301 01:41:35,460 --> 01:41:37,739 and the room that was removed was right 2302 01:41:37,739 --> 01:41:40,080 there so we were hoping that by removing 2303 01:41:40,080 --> 01:41:42,060 that it would uh 2304 01:41:42,060 --> 01:41:43,980 make everything a little bit better 2305 01:41:43,980 --> 01:41:46,020 um but you know we're here now 2306 01:41:46,020 --> 01:41:49,430 so 2307 01:41:49,440 --> 01:41:52,139 all right so this brings us to uh the 2308 01:41:52,139 --> 01:41:55,739 main points that Tyson made and I think 2309 01:41:55,739 --> 01:41:57,659 his presentation the majority of it 2310 01:41:57,659 --> 01:42:00,300 focused on the shadows and how it 2311 01:42:00,300 --> 01:42:02,580 impacts his backyard we've tried to 2312 01:42:02,580 --> 01:42:05,639 explain to him multiple times uh in in a 2313 01:42:05,639 --> 01:42:08,219 and do meetings privately as well as 2314 01:42:08,219 --> 01:42:09,960 during the commission meetings so I 2315 01:42:09,960 --> 01:42:11,159 would like to illustrate this one more 2316 01:42:11,159 --> 01:42:13,139 time very clearly so as you can see in 2317 01:42:13,139 --> 01:42:15,900 the red that is the first level of the 2318 01:42:15,900 --> 01:42:19,320 house that red is the existing shade of 2319 01:42:19,320 --> 01:42:21,119 the house the first three slides that 2320 01:42:21,119 --> 01:42:23,699 you see is in the summer time and that 2321 01:42:23,699 --> 01:42:27,540 green portion is actually the the shade 2322 01:42:27,540 --> 01:42:30,600 that's caused by the second floor 2323 01:42:30,600 --> 01:42:32,040 um so during the summer time I don't 2324 01:42:32,040 --> 01:42:33,600 think there's any issues as you can see 2325 01:42:33,600 --> 01:42:36,119 once it hits noon uh there isn't really 2326 01:42:36,119 --> 01:42:38,100 nothing on 2327 01:42:38,100 --> 01:42:41,340 Tyson's property so Equinox is on the 2328 01:42:41,340 --> 01:42:43,679 next three slides so as you can see the 2329 01:42:43,679 --> 01:42:47,460 red there is is basically what the 2330 01:42:47,460 --> 01:42:50,580 existing house Shadows casting and so 2331 01:42:50,580 --> 01:42:52,800 there's some pink hatchlines as well as 2332 01:42:52,800 --> 01:42:55,520 the green that is the shadow that will 2333 01:42:55,520 --> 01:42:59,159 be added onto the existing Shadow at 9am 2334 01:42:59,159 --> 01:43:02,340 but once it hits 12 o'clock the shadow 2335 01:43:02,340 --> 01:43:04,560 will recede and it will as you can see 2336 01:43:04,560 --> 01:43:07,199 it goes where the red is existing and 2337 01:43:07,199 --> 01:43:10,560 the green is uh the second floor and I 2338 01:43:10,560 --> 01:43:12,060 like to make a note that in the photos 2339 01:43:12,060 --> 01:43:15,480 and everything the green Shadow isn't in 2340 01:43:15,480 --> 01:43:18,119 their main backyard area so by 12 2341 01:43:18,119 --> 01:43:21,600 o'clock the Shadows already moved aside 2342 01:43:21,600 --> 01:43:24,060 and then by three o'clock all Shadows 2343 01:43:24,060 --> 01:43:25,860 off their property and I think one of 2344 01:43:25,860 --> 01:43:27,719 the major contentions was actually 2345 01:43:27,719 --> 01:43:30,300 during winter time so we ended up doing 2346 01:43:30,300 --> 01:43:34,199 a few more sun studies to illustrate 2347 01:43:34,199 --> 01:43:36,659 um or so they have a better view of all 2348 01:43:36,659 --> 01:43:40,980 this so for 9 A.M it's uh all the shadow 2349 01:43:40,980 --> 01:43:47,699 that's cast is actually by the first level so there isn't really 2350 01:43:47,699 --> 01:43:51,060 any second floor level Shadow casted uh 2351 01:43:51,060 --> 01:43:53,159 so on the second slide that little bit 2352 01:43:53,159 --> 01:43:55,920 of green and then then that's already I 2353 01:43:55,920 --> 01:43:57,900 believe at 10 o'clock it's real rotated 2354 01:43:57,900 --> 01:44:01,800 out and you guys you can see it's none 2355 01:44:01,800 --> 01:44:03,600 of it's really hitting their backyard 2356 01:44:03,600 --> 01:44:06,119 and I think one of the things that Tyson 2357 01:44:06,119 --> 01:44:08,159 said that the information that I'm 2358 01:44:08,159 --> 01:44:10,320 providing is not accurate or potentially 2359 01:44:10,320 --> 01:44:12,300 not accurate and I'd like to make it 2360 01:44:12,300 --> 01:44:14,460 very clear that on on the staff report 2361 01:44:14,460 --> 01:44:17,219 on page 135 actually show all the 2362 01:44:17,219 --> 01:44:20,760 calculations of how I re I did the 2363 01:44:20,760 --> 01:44:23,280 length in a triangle showing how the 2364 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:25,739 shade links are done and all that 2365 01:44:25,739 --> 01:44:27,860 information can be 2366 01:44:27,860 --> 01:44:30,780 compared to on online solar calculators 2367 01:44:30,780 --> 01:44:33,000 okay so you're seeing the time okay copy 2368 01:44:33,000 --> 01:44:33,960 that okay 2369 01:44:33,960 --> 01:44:35,820 um well okay one one more minute and 2370 01:44:35,820 --> 01:44:36,900 then oh 2371 01:44:36,900 --> 01:44:40,280 all right what else we got um 2372 01:44:40,280 --> 01:44:44,930 no no let me make sure I got everything 2373 01:44:44,940 --> 01:44:46,560 um 2374 01:44:46,560 --> 01:44:49,139 okay okay well 2375 01:44:49,139 --> 01:44:51,480 so I'll move away from the shadows and 2376 01:44:51,480 --> 01:44:53,760 let's just talk about the house so the 2377 01:44:53,760 --> 01:44:56,280 way that the properties are laid out 2378 01:44:56,280 --> 01:44:58,560 um I wanted to illustrate on this slide 2379 01:44:58,560 --> 01:45:01,080 that there's 2380 01:45:01,080 --> 01:45:03,420 a lot of foliage everywhere 2381 01:45:03,420 --> 01:45:04,860 um as you can see in the red arrow 2382 01:45:04,860 --> 01:45:08,340 that's a pretty large set of foliage so 2383 01:45:08,340 --> 01:45:10,739 a lot of the Shadows do come from there 2384 01:45:10,739 --> 01:45:13,800 once we get past the the noon 2385 01:45:13,800 --> 01:45:19,669 um so let me show you 2386 01:45:19,679 --> 01:45:22,500 again this is their backyard those trees 2387 01:45:22,500 --> 01:45:25,800 and everything uh cast quite a bit of 2388 01:45:25,800 --> 01:45:27,060 Shadows 2389 01:45:27,060 --> 01:45:29,280 um so I just want to I just want to make 2390 01:45:29,280 --> 01:45:31,679 sure that everybody understands that the 2391 01:45:31,679 --> 01:45:33,380 project site itself 2392 01:45:33,380 --> 01:45:37,440 is prone to shadows and so and the 2393 01:45:37,440 --> 01:45:38,940 purpose of all those other slides was 2394 01:45:38,940 --> 01:45:40,619 just to show that 2395 01:45:40,619 --> 01:45:42,600 the Shadows actually created by the 2396 01:45:42,600 --> 01:45:46,500 second floor isn't that large as shown 2397 01:45:46,500 --> 01:45:48,060 in the green 2398 01:45:48,060 --> 01:45:54,410 but yeah that's

01:54:39,659 the existing homeowner the home people 2606 01:54:39,659 --> 01:54:40,920 that live there 2607 01:54:40,920 --> 01:54:44,880 the um in the one-story house 2608 01:54:44,880 --> 01:54:47,040 the other my other issue is that yes 2609 01:54:47,040 --> 01:54:49,139 this has taken a long time but you 2610 01:54:49,139 --> 01:54:50,520 should have you should have been at 2611 01:54:50,520 --> 01:54:51,780 those meetings 2612 01:54:51,780 --> 01:54:56,880 the initial the initial trying to get it 2613 01:54:56,880 --> 01:54:59,460 out right project 2614 01:54:59,460 --> 01:55:02,760 um they bought the house May 27th they 2615 01:55:02,760 --> 01:55:04,440 had this to the Planning Commission at 2616 01:55:04,440 --> 01:55:06,900 August 19th so they threw this together 2617 01:55:06,900 --> 01:55:08,400 really fast 2618 01:55:08,400 --> 01:55:10,440 they didn't go out and measure they just 2619 01:55:10,440 --> 01:55:13,280 did Google Maps you know the estimated 2620 01:55:13,280 --> 01:55:17,040 where how close it was to the fence it 2621 01:55:17,040 --> 01:55:20,880 was all guesstimating and the 2622 01:55:20,880 --> 01:55:22,920 neighborhood was very upset because it 2623 01:55:22,920 --> 01:55:25,440 was so massive it's just larger than any 2624 01:55:25,440 --> 01:55:27,840 other house in our neighborhood 2625 01:55:27,840 --> 01:55:32,159 and it was very sloppy and so that's why 2626 01:55:32,159 --> 01:55:34,980 there was revision and revision and 2627 01:55:34,980 --> 01:55:37,139 revision but yet even though that has 2628 01:55:37,139 --> 01:55:39,239 all been done 2629 01:55:39,239 --> 01:55:41,460 and even though the architect is saying 2630 01:55:41,460 --> 01:55:43,920 oh we'll now see this is very little 2631 01:55:43,920 --> 01:55:47,580 effect is coming from the second floor 2632 01:55:47,580 --> 01:55:49,380 you should have heard 2633 01:55:49,380 --> 01:55:51,600 I know that Tyson has photographs 2634 01:55:51,600 -->

01:56:00,480 house is there it is coming through so 2638 01:56:00,480 --> 01:56:03,060 when the second story is built on that's 2639 01:56:03,060 --> 01:56:06,780 going to cause him to have 2640 01:56:06,780 --> 01:56:10,080 to lose his sunshine in the morning and 2641 01:56:10,080 --> 01:56:12,600 you know we all miss the sunshine these 2642 01:56:12,600 --> 01:56:14,100 days we really 2643

01:56:54,900 --> 01:56:57,719 added on 2653 01:56:57,719 --> 01:57:03,119 um this house that is proposed at 1261 2654 01:57:03,119 --> 01:57:06,119 the house the Murphy's house and I don't 2655 01:57:06,119 --> 01:57:08,159 even know the Murphys I don't know 2656 01:57:08,159 --> 01:57:09,780 really either 2657 01:57:09,780 --> 01:57:12,800 and the house behind 2658 01:57:12,800 --> 01:57:17,219 1261 they are literally going to be 2659 01:57:17,219 --> 01:57:20,580 smothered by this Edition 2660 01:57:20,580 --> 01:57:24,300 it's just way too big it doesn't blend 2661 01:57:24,300 --> 01:57:26,280 in with the neighborhood it looks like a 2662 01:57:26,280 --> 01:57:27,900 hotel 2663 01:57:27,900 --> 01:57:30,239 because it's sitting out there on the 2664 01:57:30,239 --> 01:57:33,619 corner these houses when they were built 2665 01:57:33,619 --> 01:57:38,340 65 plus years ago they were all one 2666 01:57:38,340 --> 01:57:41,360 level ranch style homes 2667 01:57:41,360 --> 01:57:44,400 this certainly doesn't 2668 01:57:44,400 --> 01:57:46,679 blend in with the neighborhood at all 2669 01:57:46,679 --> 01:57:48,619 where it's located 2670 01:57:48,619 --> 01:57:52,139 and I agree with the Murphys that it 2671 01:57:52,139 --> 01:57:56,030 impedes on their privacy 2672 01:57:56,040 --> 01:58:00,420 um it seems to be really close to the 2673 01:58:00,420 --> 01:58:02,820 property lines 2674 01:58:02,820 --> 01:58:03,659 um 2675 01:58:03,659 --> 01:58:05,280 perhaps 2676 01:58:05,280 --> 01:58:07,679 the leaves should have had a little more 2677 01:58:07,679 --> 01:58:10,500 foresight before they purchased this 2678 01:58:10,500 --> 01:58:13,920 house if in the end they wanted such a 2679 01:58:13,920 --> 01:58:16,199 big big home 2680 01:58:16,199 --> 01:58:19,800 but it just it doesn't fit 2681 01:58:19,800 --> 01:58:21,900 on that corner 2682 01:58:21,900 --> 01:58:26,820 thank you for your comments next speaker 2683

had 2809 02:03:41,400 --> 02:03:42,719 yesterday 2810 02:03:42,719 --> 02:03:44,760 um and all the uh all the information 2811 02:03:44,760 --> 02:03:47,400 presented were were uh was information 2812 02:03:47,400 --> 02:03:49,500 that was already available in the packet 2813 02:03:49,500 --> 02:03:52,619 and and presented to us tonight 2814 02:03:52,619 --> 02:03:55,320 um and um I did not ask any 2815 02:03:55,320 --> 02:03:57,420 um ask any questions to and deferred 2816 02:03:57,420 --> 02:04:01,139 that um to to tonight so thank you okay 2817 02:04:01,139 --> 02:04:03,420 thank you all

logged in 2821 02:04:08,699 --> 02:04:11,820 to zoom if you could disconnect the 2822 02:04:11,820 --> 02:04:14,340 microphone feature because I believe 2823 02:04:14,340 --> 02:04:22,250 that there is a echo due to that 2824 02:04:22,260 --> 02:04:26,219 okay yeah okay all right uh I'm gonna go 2825 02:04:26,219 --> 02:04:28,860 ahead and proceed okay thank you so 2826 02:04:28,860 --> 02:04:31,380 again Council this is your time for the 2827 02:04:31,380 --> 02:04:36,050 questions and deliberations colleagues 2828 02:04:36,060 --> 02:04:38,159 council member Salazar I guess I'll 2829 02:04:38,159 --> 02:04:39,599 start 2830 02:04:39,599 --> 02:04:40,679 um 2831 02:04:40,679 --> 02:04:43,260 so it is unfortunate that we're at this 2832 02:04:43,260 --> 02:04:45,480 point it is uh it's always nice when 2833 02:04:45,480 --> 02:04:47,580 neighbors can find a mutual uh 2834 02:04:47,580 --> 02:04:49,679 Arrangement up front and it doesn't have 2835 02:04:49,679 --> 02:04:51,599 to come to this but 2836 02:04:51,599 --> 02:04:54,780 um I I also realize that San Bruno is 2837 02:04:54,780 --> 02:04:57,840 completely built out and every project 2838 02:04:57,840 --> 02:04:59,820 that comes before the Planning 2839 02:04:59,820 --> 02:05:02,219 Commission is probably going to be a 2840 02:05:02,219 --> 02:05:03,840 second floor Edition 2841 02:05:03,840 --> 02:05:07,199 and it's uh almost impossible to do one 2842 02:05:07,199 --> 02:05:08,699 of those without having some sort of 2843 02:05:08,699 --> 02:05:09,920 impact 2844 02:05:09,920 --> 02:05:12,300 so it is a 2845 02:05:12,300 --> 02:05:14,639 I understand it's a sensitive situation 2846 02:05:14,639 --> 02:05:17,099 and there are you know people making 2847 02:05:17,099 --> 02:05:19,500 Investments uh with expectation that 2848 02:05:19,500 --> 02:05:21,599 they can do things uh We've set out 2849 02:05:21,599 --> 02:05:24,360 guidelines as a city that permit certain 2850 02:05:24,360 --> 02:05:25,219 things 2851 02:05:25,219 --> 02:05:28,199 and those guidelines don't necessarily 2852 02:05:28,199 --> 02:05:31,380 have every potential impact 2853 02:05:31,380 --> 02:05:33,719 played out and so that there are 2854 02:05:33,719 --> 02:05:37,320 situations that could be disadvantageous 2855 02:05:37,320 --> 02:05:40,560 uh there was a proposal 2856 02:05:40,560 --> 02:05:45,599 um that the um that Mr Murphy uh uh 2857 02:05:45,599 --> 02:05:47,400 suggested that could potentially 2858 02:05:47,400 --> 02:05:50,340 minimize the shadowing even further and 2859 02:05:50,340 --> 02:05:52,860 so my question to staff 2860 02:05:52,860 --> 02:05:56,639 um first is uh were those uh 2861 02:05:56,639 --> 02:05:58,760 modifications 2862 02:05:58,760 --> 02:06:01,619 proposed and reviewed by the Planning 2863 02:06:01,619 --> 02:06:04,500 Commission and could something like that 2864 02:06:04,500 --> 02:06:07,739 be accomplished with uh minimal impact 2865 02:06:07,739 --> 02:06:17,990 to the project cost 2866 02:06:18,000 --> 02:06:20,400 please go ahead and you're welcome to 2867 02:06:20,400 --> 02:06:21,840 stay up there too just in case there are 2868 02:06:21,840 --> 02:06:27,790 questions please yes 2869 02:06:27,800 --> 02:06:31,139 okay there we go yes uh thank you 2870 02:06:31,139 --> 02:06:33,540 council member the uh the the diagram 2871 02:06:33,540 --> 02:06:37,080 that uh the appellant showed uh with the 2872 02:06:37,080 --> 02:06:39,960 image we believe is new but the but the 2873 02:06:39,960 --> 02:06:42,500 idea of 2874 02:06:42,500 --> 02:06:45,719 rearranging the where the addition is 2875 02:06:45,719 --> 02:06:48,179 being put is something I was raised at 2876 02:06:48,179 --> 02:06:51,370 prior meetings 2877 02:06:51,380 --> 02:06:52,920 the 2878 02:06:52,920 --> 02:06:55,679 that would be pretty much a complete 2879 02:06:55,679 --> 02:06:58,980 redesign it is not completely outside 2880 02:06:58,980 --> 02:07:02,520 the realm of of possibility but they're 2881 02:07:02,520 --> 02:07:05,040 certainly added at a time in cost to the 2882 02:07:05,040 --> 02:07:11,930 applicant 2883 02:07:11,940 --> 02:07:13,619 thank you 2884 02:07:13,619 --> 02:07:15,960 all right uh Mr Salazar has concluded 2885 02:07:15,960 --> 02:07:22,609 other questions uh from colleagues 2886 02:07:22,619 --> 02:07:24,960 uh through the mayor uh vice mayor 2887 02:07:24,960 --> 02:07:26,580 Hamilton 2888 02:07:26,580 --> 02:07:28,920 thank you so 2889 02:07:28,920 --> 02:07:31,550 um 2890 02:07:31,560 --> 02:07:33,780 council member Salazar is correct this 2891 02:07:33,780 --> 02:07:36,239 is that this is uh unfortunate to have 2892 02:07:36,239 --> 02:07:36,960 to 2893 02:07:36,960 --> 02:07:38,880 um to come here because you know 2894 02:07:38,880 --> 02:07:40,860 regardless of the decision made tonight 2895 02:07:40,860 --> 02:07:43,139 you know there's going to be 2896 02:07:43,139 --> 02:07:45,119 um a severe disappointment on one side 2897 02:07:45,119 --> 02:07:46,560 so it's it's 2898 02:07:46,560 --> 02:07:50,520 um uh it's it's unfortunate but this is 2899 02:07:50,520 --> 02:07:52,800 um that's come to this 2900 02:07:52,800 --> 02:07:56,760 so you know through the through the 2901 02:07:56,760 --> 02:07:59,159 um initial staff report and then the two 2902 02:07:59,159 --> 02:08:02,300 presentations we're getting a lot of 2903 02:08:02,300 --> 02:08:04,619 conflicting information about the 2904 02:08:04,619 --> 02:08:06,300 shading about what you know what what 2905 02:08:06,300 --> 02:08:09,480 the actual impact is and 2906 02:08:09,480 --> 02:08:11,340 it's 2907 02:08:11,340 --> 02:08:13,619 the the presentation that we received 2908 02:08:13,619 --> 02:08:16,619 from the um from the applicant 2909 02:08:16,619 --> 02:08:17,460 um 2910 02:08:17,460 --> 02:08:20,179 you know there's you know seem to 2911 02:08:20,179 --> 02:08:22,199 demonstrate that there's you know 2912 02:08:22,199 --> 02:08:23,340 there's already a lot of there's already 2913 02:08:23,340 --> 02:08:25,139 a lot of shading as it is right now even 2914 02:08:25,139 --> 02:08:28,560 without any addition and you know the 2915 02:08:28,560 --> 02:08:30,719 um the additional shade that will be 2916 02:08:30,719 --> 02:08:33,719 provided there has staff 2917 02:08:33,719 --> 02:08:37,380 analyzed that and to verify that the 2918 02:08:37,380 --> 02:08:41,689 accuracy of that 2919 02:08:41,699 --> 02:08:44,820 Mr vice mayor uh we have we have looked 2920 02:08:44,820 --> 02:08:46,980 at the data we've looked at the diagrams 2921 02:08:46,980 --> 02:08:49,860 uh we have not looked into the math and 2922 02:08:49,860 --> 02:08:52,440 the engineering and and calculations 2923 02:08:52,440 --> 02:08:56,040 involved but the results do appear to be 2924 02:08:56,040 --> 02:09:00,480 what we would think they would be uh 2925 02:09:00,480 --> 02:09:02,880 looking at these type of shade and 2926 02:09:02,880 --> 02:09:04,500 Shadow studies are not actually an 2927 02:09:04,500 --> 02:09:07,080 application requirement and and thus 2928 02:09:07,080 --> 02:09:09,000 this is was kind of an extra ask of the 2929 02:09:09,000 --> 02:09:10,980 Planning Commission uh and it's not 2930 02:09:10,980 --> 02:09:16,380 something that we have the capacity to truly go out and 2931 02:09:16,380 --> 02:09:19,080 verify unless uh we were to hire a 2932 02:09:19,080 --> 02:09:22,020 consultant to peer review uh 2933 02:09:22,020 --> 02:09:24,659 that work 2934 02:09:24,659 --> 02:09:26,280 I understood 2935 02:09:26,280 --> 02:09:27,719 and then 2936 02:09:27,719 --> 02:09:30,480 um I'm sorry you know vice mayor do you 2937 02:09:30,480 --> 02:09:32,280 and I'm and I know the remote makes it a 2938 02:09:32,280 --> 02:09:34,860 pause here can you just mind holding the 2939 02:09:34,860 --> 02:09:37,920 city manager had wanted to add something 2940 02:09:37,920 --> 02:09:41,040 certainly thank you Andrew I just wanted 2941 02:09:41,040 --> 02:09:44,280 to note that um in the appellants 2942 02:09:44,280 --> 02:09:47,340 presentation there was a picture of what 2943 02:09:47,340 --> 02:09:50,820 the shading is today uh which did align 2944 02:09:50,820 --> 02:09:53,639 very much to the data that was presented 2945 02:09:53,639 --> 02:09:56,460 by the applicant showing that their 2946 02:09:56,460 --> 02:09:58,800 today without the addition there is a 2947 02:09:58,800 --> 02:10:01,260 lot of shading just from the existing 2948 02:10:01,260 --> 02:10:04,320 first story in the winter at 2949 02:10:04,320 --> 02:10:07,380 approximately 9 A.M and so 2950 02:10:07,380 --> 02:10:09,719 the council member or vice mayor 2951 02:10:09,719 --> 02:10:11,460 mentioned that there appeared to be a 2952 02:10:11,460 --> 02:10:14,340 incongruence in some of the data but in 2953 02:10:14,340 --> 02:10:17,159 what we saw today from both the 2954 02:10:17,159 --> 02:10:18,780 appellant and the applicant I think 2955 02:10:18,780 --> 02:10:20,340 there was congruence that there is 2956 02:10:20,340 --> 02:10:23,340 significant shading during the winter on 2957 02:10:23,340 --> 02:10:27,920 most of the side slash rear yard 2958 02:10:27,920 --> 02:10:31,199 at around 9 A.M and so that's just with 2959 02:10:31,199 --> 02:10:33,060 one story yes it will be slightly 2960 02:10:33,060 --> 02:10:34,920 increased but from the picture that I 2961 02:10:34,920 --> 02:10:37,080 think we all saw their significant 2962 02:10:37,080 --> 02:10:39,540 shading already 2963 02:10:39,540 --> 02:10:41,699 yeah and thank you city manager uh thank 2964 02:10:41,699 --> 02:10:43,980 you for

privacy 2968 02:10:50,940 --> 02:10:54,980 um in the appallance uh presentation 2969 02:10:54,980 --> 02:10:58,619 not a lot of time was was spent there um 2970 02:10:58,619 --> 02:11:00,659 except to say that a window it was 2971 02:11:00,659 --> 02:11:03,480 basically that a window is a window 2972 02:11:03,480 --> 02:11:05,400 um the 2973 02:11:05,400 --> 02:11:07,320 you know in my time on the

you've got a a two-story Edition 2980 02:11:19,320 --> 02:11:22,500 going up next to a one-story 2981 02:11:22,500 --> 02:11:24,840 um uh neighbor 2982 02:11:24,840 --> 02:11:27,780 to do these clustery windows with the 2983 02:11:27,780 --> 02:11:31,800 high high sill meaning that through the 2984 02:11:31,800 --> 02:11:33,119 normal 2985 02:11:33,119 --> 02:11:36,719 you know usage of of a

presented their case very 3015 02:12:42,000 --> 02:12:42,860 well 3016 02:12:42,860 --> 02:12:46,380 with regards to the orientation of the 3017 02:12:46,380 --> 02:12:47,119 sun 3018 02:12:47,119 --> 02:12:54,659 compared to the summer summer season and winter the orientation of the sun is 3019 02:12:54,659 --> 02:12:57,000 basically in in between that's why on 3020 02:12:57,000 --> 02:12:59,579 the presentation of of the applicant 3021 02:12:59,579 --> 02:13:03,780 basically shows very little Shadow so I 3022 02:13:03,780 --> 02:13:05,280 don't see any 3023 02:13:05,280 --> 02:13:08,699 um any uh big impact on the shadowing 3024 02:13:08,699 --> 02:13:12,719 issue for the purpose Edition when it 3025 02:13:12,719 --> 02:13:16,199 comes to the uh the Privacy I think the 3026 02:13:16,199

higher and and also um based on what um 3034 02:13:35,159 --> 02:13:37,380 vice mayor Hamilton mentioned that 3035 02:13:37,380 --> 02:13:39,840 unless you're tall and your intention is 3036 02:13:39,840 --> 02:13:41,639 to look down 3037 02:13:41,639 --> 02:13:46,139 um I don't think it would be an issue on the Privacy matter 3038 02:13:46,139 --> 02:13:48,540 with one addition we have a regular 3039 02:13:48,540 --> 02:13:51,659 window that basically anybody can look 3040 02:13:51,659 --> 02:13:53,579 at and through the through the through 3041 02:13:53,579 --> 02:13:56,219 the neighbor and we don't see that being 3042 02:13:56,219 --> 02:13:59,219 an issue as for privacy issue because 3043 02:13:59,219 --> 02:14:03,060 it's it's a an eye level a high level of 3044 02:14:03,060 --> 02:14:07,020 an individual so I don't see any um 3045 02:14:07,020 --> 02:14:09,960 issue when it comes to the Privacy 3046 02:14:09,960 --> 02:14:12,119 either based on on the applicant's 3047 02:14:12,119 --> 02:14:15,060 presentation thank you 3048 02:14:15,060 --> 02:14:16,739 any other questions or comments 3049 02:14:16,739 --> 02:14:18,780 councilmember Medina yes thank you Mr 3050 02:14:18,780 --> 02:14:19,800 Mayor 3051 02:14:19,800 --> 02:14:22,500 um I think 3052 02:14:22,500 --> 02:14:25,260 my colleagues covered a lot 3053 02:14:25,260 --> 02:14:27,060 um 3054 02:14:27,060 --> 02:14:31,139 of the concerns and and the real reality 3055 02:14:31,139 --> 02:14:33,599 that when somebody's building a second 3056 02:14:33,599 --> 02:14:35,460 story Edition 3057 02:14:35,460 --> 02:14:37,500 and I can tell you from personal 3058 02:14:37,500 --> 02:14:39,300 experience it's happening at my house 3059 02:14:39,300 --> 02:14:41,060 right now 3060 02:14:41,060 --> 02:14:43,800 the applicant is 3061 02:14:43,800 --> 02:14:45,900 they're building the house and as I look 3062 02:14:45,900 --> 02:14:50,159 up I'm I'm like wow that didn't look 3063 02:14:50,159 --> 02:14:51,599 like that on the plans and I could 3064 02:14:51,599 --> 02:14:53,699 understand that 3065 02:14:53,699 --> 02:14:58,380 because property owners have rights 3066 02:14:58,380 --> 02:15:00,420 to have a second story we have the 3067 02:15:00,420 --> 02:15:01,560 guidelines 3068 02:15:01,560 --> 02:15:03,900 that attempt to 3069 02:15:03,900 --> 02:15:05,820 create 3070 02:15:05,820 --> 02:15:09,780 more of a acceptable level 3071 02:15:09,780 --> 02:15:11,340 and the key words that I'm looking at 3072 02:15:11,340 --> 02:15:13,440 here are 3073 02:15:13,440 --> 02:15:14,940 um minimize 3074 02:15:14,940 --> 02:15:18,420 and reduce step back 3075 02:15:18,420 --> 02:15:21,599 um and has met the daylight plane 3076 02:15:21,599 --> 02:15:22,800 guideline 3077 02:15:22,800 --> 02:15:26,099 and that's what I'm feeling is probably 3078 02:15:26,099 --> 02:15:27,900 one of the most important thing here is 3079 02:15:27,900 --> 02:15:31,320 this is our guideline 3080 02:15:31,320 --> 02:15:34,440 um so I my question would be to staff 3081 02:15:34,440 --> 02:15:37,079 and also to explain to the public this 3082 02:15:37,079 --> 02:15:38,940 is the first time in seven years that 3083 02:15:38,940 --> 02:15:44,400 I've I've sat in on a an appeal of of a 3084 02:15:44,400 --> 02:15:47,159 property it doesn't happen very often 3085 02:15:47,159 --> 02:15:48,500 so 3086 02:15:48,500 --> 02:15:54,300 reducing compared to minimizing is a really really strong 3087 02:15:54,300 --> 02:15:55,860 word 3088 02:15:55,860 --> 02:15:56,460 um 3089 02:15:56,460 --> 02:15:57,659 but 3090 02:15:57,659 --> 02:16:00,960 legally I would like to hear from our 3091 02:16:00,960 --> 02:16:03,840 City attorney about 3092 02:16:03,840 --> 02:16:04,860 um 3093 02:16:04,860 --> 02:16:08,219 those those words because I believe that 3094 02:16:08,219 --> 02:16:11,579 the attempt to reduce and someone could 3095 02:16:11,579 --> 02:16:13,920 say to minimize 3096 02:16:13,920 --> 02:16:16,139 um has been made 3097 02:16:16,139 --> 02:16:19,980 now if if it was possible 3098 02:16:19,980 --> 02:16:23,579 um to move the house a little further 3099 02:16:23,579 --> 02:16:24,780 over 3100 02:16:24,780 --> 02:16:27,179 during the second round that would have 3101 02:16:27,179 --> 02:16:29,219 probably been Optimum 3102 02:16:29,219 --> 02:16:31,500 um I understand the the idea about the 3103 02:16:31,500 --> 02:16:33,899 windows as well because looking out of 3104 02:16:33,899 --> 02:16:36,179 my bedroom window I can see there's a 3105 02:16:36,179 --> 02:16:38,460 window on the on the the house that's 3106 02:16:38,460 --> 02:16:41,219 next door but 3107 02:16:41,219 --> 02:16:44,700 houses need to have Windows and it's 3108 02:16:44,700 --> 02:16:47,160 just something to be aware of and and 3109 02:16:47,160 --> 02:16:53,939 it's more of a reality so I think I've just wanted to to bounce to the 3110 02:16:53,939 --> 02:16:56,639 legal side of things to make sure those 3111 02:16:56,639 --> 02:16:59,460 are covered and that the effort has been 3112 02:16:59,460 --> 02:17:01,380 made 3113 02:17:01,380 --> 02:17:03,719 by meeting the guideline which wasn't 3114 02:17:03,719 --> 02:17:05,040 met before 3115 02:17:05,040 --> 02:17:06,599 and 3116 02:17:06,599 --> 02:17:10,460 um the accuracy 3117 02:17:10,460 --> 02:17:13,260 because it's kind of a I agree with the 3118 02:17:13,260 --> 02:17:15,359 vice mayor said we heard kind of two 3119 02:17:15,359 --> 02:17:17,340 different things that it was it barely 3120 02:17:17,340 --> 02:17:20,280 reduced it but hearing from the 3121 02:17:20,280 --> 02:17:22,260 applicant that the shades are already 3122 02:17:22,260 --> 02:17:23,880 there 3123 02:17:23,880 --> 02:17:25,559 um so 3124 02:17:25,559 --> 02:17:29,219 just one second so let's see how that 3125 02:17:29,219 --> 02:17:31,679 goes if you don't mind Mr no no Trisha 3126 02:17:31,679 --> 02:17:34,200 Ortiz City attorney so 3127 02:17:34,200 --> 02:17:36,120 um I will probably kick it back over to 3128 02:17:36,120 --> 02:17:38,099 staff to discuss the guidelines but I 3129 02:17:38,099 --> 02:17:39,599 think what you're talking about were the 3130 02:17:39,599 --> 02:17:41,700 guidelines which aren't necessarily the 3131 02:17:41,700 --> 02:17:43,620 legal parameters the legal parameters 3132 02:17:43,620 --> 02:17:45,559 are when we look at 3133 02:17:45,559 --> 02:17:49,080 approving the project which is you have 3134 02:17:49,080 --> 02:17:51,840 to be able to make the findings that are 3135 02:17:51,840 --> 02:17:54,479 in your code and those are the findings 3136 02:17:54,479 --> 02:17:57,300 that have all been laid out in the staff 3137 02:17:57,300 --> 02:18:00,719 report as well as the resolution so 3138 02:18:00,719 --> 02:18:02,820 um I think the guidelines it's probably 3139 02:18:02,820 --> 02:18:04,740 more appropriate for staff to talk about 3140 02:18:04,740 --> 02:18:09,300 how they view the guidelines because as they were saying they're not hard and 3141 02:18:09,300 --> 02:18:11,099 fast rules they are just what they say 3142 02:18:11,099 --> 02:18:13,200 they are which is guidelines and you 3143 02:18:13,200 --> 02:18:15,719 look to okay factually how do we apply 3144 02:18:15,719 --> 02:18:17,880 these guidelines what's the practice and 3145 02:18:17,880 --> 02:18:21,830 things like that 3146 02:18:21,840 --> 02:18:28,070 foreign 3147 02:18:28,080 --> 02:18:31,859 they're both going to the same way 3148 02:18:31,859 --> 02:18:34,920 um it it doesn't say come up again 3149 02:18:34,920 --> 02:18:38,820 um but if uh respond further yes I have 3150 02:18:38,820 --> 02:18:42,059 noted that when you do a second story 3151 02:18:42,059 --> 02:18:45,840 you are going to have impacts 3152 02:18:45,840 --> 02:18:48,240 and that and so 3153 02:18:48,240 --> 02:18:52,080 um if the intent of the guidelines were 3154 02:18:52,080 --> 02:18:55,200 to minimize to zero then there would be 3155 02:18:55,200 --> 02:19:00,599 these these number of guidelines 3156 02:19:00,599 --> 02:19:04,979 suggesting wholesale avoid one is you 3157 02:19:04,979 --> 02:19:06,359 have a two-story wall and you have an 3158 02:19:06,359 --> 02:19:09,359 offset on it the other is is the 3159 02:19:09,359 --> 02:19:11,179 daylight plane 3160 02:19:11,179 --> 02:19:13,979 one of the statements of of the 3161 02:19:13,979 --> 02:19:15,420 appellant is the daylight plane isn't 3162 02:19:15,420 --> 02:19:19,009 doing enough 3163 02:19:19,019 --> 02:19:21,120 the daylight plane reflects what the 3164 02:19:21,120 --> 02:19:24,179 council in 2010 said was enough it's a 3165 02:19:24,179 --> 02:19:26,099 big document and as I said there's a 3166 02:19:26,099 --> 02:19:28,260 number of guidelines and you really have 3167 02:19:28,260 --> 02:19:30,780 to take a look at the whole package all 3168 02:19:30,780 --> 02:19:31,760 together 3169 02:19:31,760 --> 02:19:34,559 knowing that perfectly meeting every 3170 02:19:34,559 --> 02:19:36,240 guideline is probably never going to 3171 02:19:36,240 --> 02:19:39,000 happen but are you meeting the intent 3172 02:19:39,000 --> 02:19:49,550 are you doing as much as what a update 3173 02:19:49,560 --> 02:19:51,780 now you answered the question I mean 3174 02:19:51,780 --> 02:19:56,180 thank you I think my colleague said 3175 02:19:56,180 --> 02:19:58,439 asked most of the questions and that was 3176 02:19:58,439 --> 02:20:02,160 about the the shadowing and there was two topics that came up Mr 3177 02:20:02,160 --> 02:20:03,780 Murphy was the shadowing and the privacy 3178 02:20:03,780 --> 02:20:05,580 and I and I a lot of time was spent on 3179 02:20:05,580 --> 02:20:06,899 the shadowing 3180 02:20:06,899 --> 02:20:08,580 um and I know that there is going to be 3181 02:20:08,580 --> 02:20:10,979 an effect it's 3182 02:20:10,979 --> 02:20:13,859 as was stated earlier a one story and a 3183 02:20:13,859 --> 02:20:16,080 two-story there's an effect in which and 3184 02:20:16,080 --> 02:20:18,060 it's trying to minimize it's not going 3185 02:20:18,060 --> 02:20:20,580 to ever eliminate and I think 3186 02:20:20,580 --> 02:20:22,200 um in my time here I'm trying to think 3187 02:20:22,200 --> 02:20:23,939 of and also an appeal that's come 3188 02:20:23,939 --> 02:20:25,200 forward 3189 02:20:25,200 --> 02:20:26,520 um 3190 02:20:26,520 --> 02:20:29,880 I share Mr Murphy's concerns because his 3191 02:20:29,880 --> 02:20:32,040 movie may not be an option and and 3192 02:20:32,040 --> 02:20:34,320 building is and I do know there are that 3193 02:20:34,320 --> 02:20:37,320 those things do occur what I do to try 3194 02:20:37,320 --> 02:20:39,060 to meet somewhere 3195 02:20:39,060 --> 02:20:42,359 um but in which that I do appreciate 3196 02:20:42,359 --> 02:20:43,800 that we're making a statement that I 3197 02:20:43,800 --> 02:20:45,359 didn't have any questions there are no 3198 02:20:45,359 --> 02:20:47,460 more questions from Council council 3199 02:20:47,460 --> 02:20:49,620 member Salazar yes so 3200 02:20:49,620 --> 02:20:50,700 um 3201 02:20:50,700 --> 02:20:53,460 there was a an initial design that was 3202 02:20:53,460 --> 02:20:55,200 rejected by the Planning Commission and 3203 02:20:55,200 --> 02:21:00,780 then a subsequent one and what was the 3204 02:21:00,780 --> 02:21:04,020 um the measurement that was that made 3205 02:21:04,020 --> 02:21:05,160 the difference for the Planning 3206 02:21:05,160 --> 02:21:07,319 Commission what what did they see the 3207 02:21:07,319 --> 02:21:09,479 one thing I think it was a combination 3208 02:21:09,479 --> 02:21:12,420 of of items uh and when you take 3209 02:21:12,420 --> 02:21:14,720 together pushing the Second Story wall 3210 02:21:14,720 --> 02:21:18,060 further away from the neighbor and 3211

and then really get into the findings 3418 02:42:54,780 --> 02:42:56,580 recommendations that were prioritized 3419 02:42:56,580 --> 02:42:58,080 and then Matt's going to come back and 3420 02:42:58,080 --> 02:42:59,760 talk to you about next steps and where 3421 02:42:59,760 --> 02:43:02,750 you go from here 3422 02:43:02,760 --> 02:43:04,800 to the project overview 3423 02:43:04,800 --> 02:43:06,600 favorites to school is a comprehensive 3424 02:43:06,600 --> 02:43:08,399 program to make school communities safer 3425 02:43:08,399 --> 02:43:10,500 especially for people students who are 3426 02:43:10,500 --> 02:43:13,500 walking or bicycling we do that by a 3427 02:43:13,500 --> 02:43:15,899 combination of engineering Solutions and 3428 02:43:15,899 --> 02:43:17,460 education and encouragement activities 3429 02:43:17,460 --> 02:43:19,500 that will hopefully encourage people to 3430 02:43:19,500 --> 02:43:23,750 take that active choice 3431 02:43:23,760 --> 02:43:25,500 the project involved objective data 3432 02:43:25,500 --> 02:43:28,200 analysis focused on safety listening to 3433 02:43:28,200 --> 02:43:29,939 Community member concerns and their 3434 02:43:29,939 --> 02:43:32,520 ideas observing traffic patterns and 3435 02:43:32,520 --> 02:43:33,899 behavior 3436 02:43:33,899 --> 02:43:35,580 based on those findings we developed 3437 02:43:35,580 --> 02:43:37,920 priority Improvement recommendations 3438 02:43:37,920 --> 02:43:40,260 the plan is not funded or commits the 3439 02:43:40,260 --> 02:43:42,840 city to any funding rather it sets the 3440 02:43:42,840 --> 02:43:45,060 city up to make wise Investments and 3441 02:43:45,060 --> 02:43:46,680 compete for grant funding from the 3442 02:43:46,680 --> 02:43:50,220 county from MTC and other state funding 3443 02:43:50,220 --> 02:43:53,809 sources 3444 02:43:53,819 --> 02:43:56,600 we partnered with many schools Bel Air 3445 02:43:56,600 --> 02:44:00,359 Allen Rollingwood John Muir and Portola 3446 02:44:00,359 --> 02:44:02,880 elementary schools Parkside intermediate 3447 02:44:02,880 --> 02:44:05,100 cappuccino high and St Robert Catholic 3448 02:44:05,100 --> 02:44:08,160 Palos Verdes and El Portal schools we 3449 02:44:08,160 --> 02:44:09,479 also there are a couple schools that 3450 02:44:09,479 --> 02:44:11,040 were partially participating that means 3451 02:44:11,040 --> 02:44:12,180 they were involved that we had 3452 02:44:12,180 --> 02:44:13,920 recommendations but we didn't they 3453 02:44:13,920 --> 02:44:15,479 didn't get the full Suite of involvement 3454 02:44:15,479 --> 02:44:17,819 Highlands Christian School Stratford and 3455 02:44:17,819 --> 02:44:20,880 monteverdi were three they were added as 3456 02:44:20,880 --> 02:44:23,929 parsley participating 3457 02:44:23,939 --> 02:44:27,420 started oops excuse me 3458 02:44:27,420 --> 02:44:29,280 we started this process in Winter of 3459 02:44:29,280 --> 02:44:31,140 2022 where the schools were identified 3460 02:44:31,140 --> 02:44:33,720 we had our first Community Workshop in 3461 02:44:33,720 --> 02:44:35,600 the spring we conducted our walk audits 3462 02:44:35,600 --> 02:44:38,520 we initiated our community surveys we 3463 02:44:38,520 --> 02:44:40,439 met with ptos and ptas that's 3464 02:44:40,439 --> 02:44:42,060 parent-teacher organizations and 3465 02:44:42,060 --> 02:44:44,580 associations and started identify draft 3466 02:44:44,580 --> 02:44:47,100 recommendations 3467 02:44:47,100 --> 02:44:49,380 in the summer we gathered input on those 3468 02:44:49,380 --> 02:44:51,960 recommendations we revised them 3469 02:44:51,960 --> 02:44:53,760 prioritized them and created the draft 3470 02:44:53,760 --> 02:44:54,899 plan 3471 02:44:54,899 --> 02:44:57,359 this fall we shared the draft plan with 3472 02:44:57,359 --> 02:44:59,640 the public we revised it based off of 3473 02:44:59,640 --> 02:45:01,080 input we received from school 3474 02:45:01,080 --> 02:45:02,760 administrators and for members of the 3475 02:45:02,760 --> 02:45:05,340 public we produced a final draft plan 3476 02:45:05,340 --> 02:45:07,319 that is here tonight for city council 3477 02:45:07,319 --> 02:45:08,819 study session 3478 02:45:08,819 --> 02:45:11,280 the final plan will be presented for 3479 02:45:11,280 --> 02:45:13,020 city council adoption tentatively 3480 02:45:13,020 --> 02:45:19,190 February 14th 3481 02:45:19,200 --> 02:45:19,920 I'm going to talk a little bit about 3482 02:45:19,920 --> 02:45:21,720 safety analysis which was one of our big 3483 02:45:21,720 --> 02:45:22,740 factors in coming up with 3484 02:45:22,740 --> 02:45:25,020 recommendations we analyzed vehicle 3485 02:45:25,020 --> 02:45:27,300 pedestrian and collision data on the 3486 02:45:27,300 --> 02:45:29,700 city's roadways and produce the map that 3487 02:45:29,700 --> 02:45:32,100 you see on the screen the roads in blue 3488 02:45:32,100 --> 02:45:34,020 and purple have the most significant 3489 02:45:34,020 --> 02:45:36,060 safety challenges the analysis 3490 02:45:36,060 --> 02:45:37,380 highlighted areas that had the most 3491 02:45:37,380 --> 02:45:41,640 severe collisions involving Youth and crashes 3492 02:45:41,640 --> 02:45:43,380 that involve vulnerable Road users that 3493 02:45:43,380 --> 02:45:45,300 is people walking or bicycling 3494 02:45:45,300 --> 02:45:47,280 the results that you see here align with 3495 02:45:47,280 --> 02:45:49,740 what we've seen in other jurisdictions 3496 02:45:49,740 --> 02:45:51,660 most crashes occurring along busier 3497 02:45:51,660 --> 02:45:53,460 streets and in denser roadway networks 3498 02:45:53,460 --> 02:45:55,439 you can see that around Skyline 3499 02:45:55,439 --> 02:45:58,740 Boulevard here and also along and east 3500 02:45:58,740 --> 02:46:02,990 of El Camino Real 3501 02:46:03,000 --> 02:46:05,939 our community engagement involved online 3502 02:46:05,939 --> 02:46:08,399 and in-person engagement so for online 3503 02:46:08,399 --> 02:46:11,160 we had a project website we developed 3504 02:46:11,160 --> 02:46:13,160 that project website with San 3505 02:46:13,160 --> 02:46:15,840 bruno.ca.gov safe routes if measure the 3506 02:46:15,840 --> 02:46:17,640 public are watching or watching later 3507 02:46:17,640 --> 02:46:19,439 they can still go to that website and 3508 02:46:19,439 --> 02:46:21,540 get information about the plan 3509 02:46:21,540 --> 02:46:24,300 we had a survey interactive map we had 3510 02:46:24,300 --> 02:46:26,280 information about upcoming events and a 3511 02:46:26,280 --> 02:46:28,080 contact form 3512 02:46:28,080 --> 02:46:29,460 this is a screen capture of the 3513 02:46:29,460 --> 02:46:31,979 interactive web tool where residents 3514 02:46:31,979 --> 02:46:33,660 could share their preferred walking or 3515 02:46:33,660 --> 02:46:35,340 bicycling routes from home to school 3516 02:46:35,340 --> 02:46:37,439 they also could add points to identify 3517 02:46:37,439 --> 02:46:42,230 challenging locations along those routes 3518 02:46:42,240 --> 02:46:45,000 we made presentations to over 70 parents 3519 02:46:45,000 --> 02:46:48,359 and staff at PTO meetings at Allen 3520 02:46:48,359 --> 02:46:51,359 Rollingwood John Muir and Portola we 3521 02:46:51,359 --> 02:46:53,880 actively tried to get on the agendas for 3522 02:46:53,880 --> 02:46:55,680 all the different ptos some of them were 3523 02:46:55,680 --> 02:46:56,939 less active than others and these are 3524 02:46:56,939 --> 02:46:58,260 the ones that invited us to come and 3525 02:46:58,260 --> 02:47:01,010 present 3526 02:47:01,020 --> 02:47:04,080 we heard from over 400 residents through 3527 02:47:04,080 --> 02:47:06,060 the survey responses and half of those 3528 02:47:06,060 --> 02:47:08,220 were parents and students that lived 3529 02:47:08,220 --> 02:47:09,899 within a mile of school so that's a 3530 02:47:09,899 --> 02:47:11,939 great distance for walking and bicycling 3531 02:47:11,939 --> 02:47:13,740 the top three concerns we heard were 3532 02:47:13,740 --> 02:47:15,260 speeding traffic along the Route 3533 02:47:15,260 --> 02:47:17,939 uncomfortable intersections and too much 3534 02:47:17,939 --> 02:47:20,760 traffic along the Route 3535 02:47:20,760 --> 02:47:22,800 in addition to that in-person online 3536 02:47:22,800 --> 02:47:26,580 engagement we conducted walk audits 3537 02:47:26,580 --> 02:47:29,100 this is a practical oops sorry this is a 3538 02:47:29,100 --> 02:47:31,020 practical exercise where our staff of 3539 02:47:31,020 --> 02:47:32,899 Transportation planners and Engineers 3540 02:47:32,899 --> 02:47:35,880 worked with City staff District staff 3541 02:47:35,880 --> 02:47:38,520 School administrators and parents to 3542 02:47:38,520 --> 02:47:41,040 observe biking and walking we looked at 3543 02:47:41,040 --> 02:47:42,979 how people were able to cross streets 3544 02:47:42,979 --> 02:47:45,780 observed any potential safety issues how 3545 02:47:45,780 --> 02:47:47,520 drivers interacted with students in 3546 02:47:47,520 --> 02:47:49,620 walking and biking and we conducted 3547 02:47:49,620 --> 02:47:51,120 these with for the nine fully 3548 02:47:51,120 --> 02:47:55,130 participating schools 3549 02:47:55,140 --> 02:47:56,340 so now I'm going to talk to you about 3550 02:47:56,340 --> 02:47:59,399 the findings and recommendations we 3551 02:47:59,399 --> 02:48:00,840 developed site-specific recommendations 3552 02:48:00,840 --> 02:48:02,640 those recommendations are in two 3553 02:48:02,640 --> 02:48:04,319 different buckets infrastructure 3554 02:48:04,319 --> 02:48:07,380 projects and non-infrastructure programs 3555 02:48:07,380 --> 02:48:09,180 examples of infrastructure projects 3556 02:48:09,180 --> 02:48:10,620 include painting high visibility 3557 02:48:10,620 --> 02:48:12,000 crosswalks 3558 02:48:12,000 --> 02:48:14,280 like the image shown here this is 3559 02:48:14,280 --> 02:48:16,920 converting maybe a two parallel lines or 3560 02:48:16,920 --> 02:48:18,780 transverse crosswalks into this ladder 3561 02:48:18,780 --> 02:48:21,300 style these are painted yellow these are 3562 02:48:21,300 --> 02:48:23,760 to Mark the high visibility crosswalks 3563 02:48:23,760 --> 02:48:25,800 in school zones 3564 02:48:25,800 --> 02:48:27,600 another type of infrastructure that 3565 02:48:27,600 --> 02:48:29,220 we're recommending are curb extensions 3566 02:48:29,220 --> 02:48:31,140 you can see an example here where we've 3567 02:48:31,140 --> 02:48:34,319 bold out the corners this is important 3568 02:48:34,319 --> 02:48:36,600 to increasing visibility especially for 3569 02:48:36,600 --> 02:48:38,460 smaller students at the corners 3570 02:48:38,460 --> 02:48:40,680 increases the visibility between drivers 3571 02:48:40,680 --> 02:48:42,780 and people waiting to cross it also 3572 02:48:42,780 --> 02:48:44,939 reduces the exposure of people out in 3573 02:48:44,939 --> 02:48:46,979 the middle of the street it also another 3574 02:48:46,979 --> 02:48:49,200 benefit is that it slows down cars 3575 02:48:49,200 --> 02:48:51,240 taking turns at Corners there's another 3576 02:48:51,240 --> 02:48:52,920 style that you can do which is a paint 3577 02:48:52,920 --> 02:48:55,319 and post there's an example here where 3578 02:48:55,319 --> 02:48:57,420 you just have flexible bollards and 3579 02:48:57,420 --> 02:48:58,800 paint that goes down this could be an 3580 02:48:58,800 --> 02:49:00,840 interim low-cost solution as you're 3581 02:49:00,840 --> 02:49:02,819 looking for funding for that higher cost 3582 02:49:02,819 --> 02:49:04,620 full concrete solution in the previous 3583 02:49:04,620 --> 02:49:06,240 image 3584 02:49:06,240 --> 02:49:08,100 other examples infrastructure could 3585 02:49:08,100 --> 02:49:10,200 include stop signs or completing studies 3586 02:49:10,200 --> 02:49:13,380 that you need to add stop signs or 3587 02:49:13,380 --> 02:49:16,979 painting red no parking curbs I heard a 3588 02:49:16,979 --> 02:49:18,960 comment at the speaker or the from the 3589 02:49:18,960 --> 02:49:21,120 public earlier today about this desire 3590 02:49:21,120 --> 02:49:22,560 this is something that comes up 3591 02:49:22,560 --> 02:49:24,359 repeatedly in the plan of creating these 3592 02:49:24,359 --> 02:49:27,240 visibility zones for people crossing the 3593 02:49:27,240 --> 02:49:30,410 streets 3594 02:49:30,420 --> 02:49:32,399 most touristic most jurisdictions lean 3595 02:49:32,399 --> 02:49:34,380 heavily on engineering Solutions what I 3596 02:49:34,380 --> 02:49:36,420 want to point out is this plan balances 3597 02:49:36,420 --> 02:49:39,600 that with non-infructure programs 3598 02:49:39,600 --> 02:49:41,819 it includes a comprehensive list of 3599 02:49:41,819 --> 02:49:43,740 these infrastructure programs such as 3600 02:49:43,740 --> 02:49:45,840 Walk and Roll to school days 3601 02:49:45,840 --> 02:49:48,060 walking school buses which you can see 3602 02:49:48,060 --> 02:49:50,700 here parents volunteering to walk their 3603 02:49:50,700 --> 02:49:52,020 kids to school and pick up other kids 3604 02:49:52,020 --> 02:49:53,640 along the way 3605 02:49:53,640 --> 02:49:56,399 other ideas like encouraging families to 3606 02:49:56,399 --> 02:49:58,140 park and walk to school for those that 3607 02:49:58,140 --> 02:49:59,939 can't maybe walk the entire distance 3608 02:49:59,939 --> 02:50:01,380 this is a way to kind of cut that in 3609 02:50:01,380 --> 02:50:03,720 half driver awareness campaigns and bike 3610 02:50:03,720 --> 02:50:06,000 rodeos which include skills training for 3611 02:50:06,000 --> 02:50:07,319 kids 3612 02:50:07,319 --> 02:50:08,819 yeah 3613 02:50:08,819 --> 02:50:11,280 this image is from a series of one page 3614 02:50:11,280 --> 02:50:12,899 one pages that we created for school 3615 02:50:12,899 --> 02:50:14,939 Partners looking to get involved in 3616 02:50:14,939 --> 02:50:17,340 safer programming the same information 3617 02:50:17,340 --> 02:50:19,020 is shared in the safe rates of school 3618 02:50:19,020 --> 02:50:21,899 plan starting on page 19. we include a 3619 02:50:21,899 --> 02:50:23,760 program description 3620 02:50:23,760 --> 02:50:26,880 planning resources and program examples 3621 02:50:26,880 --> 02:50:28,620 potential partners and responsible 3622 02:50:28,620 --> 02:50:31,260 agencies and the timing or seasonal 3623 02:50:31,260 --> 02:50:34,680 considerations for each of the programs 3624 02:50:34,680 --> 02:50:36,420 one program that has strong interest is 3625 02:50:36,420 --> 02:50:38,640 the crossing guard program Matt Lee is 3626 02:50:38,640 --> 02:50:40,319 going to come back and share with you 3627 02:50:40,319 --> 02:50:42,000 some of the discussion about the 3628 02:50:42,000 --> 02:50:47,389 crossing guard program 3629 02:50:47,399 --> 02:50:49,200 thanks Jeff a little bit about the 3630 02:50:49,200 --> 02:50:52,140 crossing guard program just so we recall 3631 02:50:52,140 --> 02:50:53,819 on the October 11th council meeting 3632 02:50:53,819 --> 02:50:56,399 there was a discussion of a student 3633 02:50:56,399 --> 02:50:58,380 pedestrian Crossing safety on Niles 3634 02:50:58,380 --> 02:51:01,680 Avenue and in that meeting the there was 3635 02:51:01,680 --> 02:51:03,479 a it was brought to the attention 3636 02:51:03,479 --> 02:51:05,160 Council that Crossing cards were 3637 02:51:05,160 --> 02:51:07,680 provided at three locations the one 3638 02:51:07,680 --> 02:51:09,240 location at Crystal Springs and Oak 3639 02:51:09,240 --> 02:51:11,220 Avenue 3640 02:51:11,220 --> 02:51:14,280 was optimized for student safety and so 3641 02:51:14,280 --> 02:51:16,520 the discussion had there 3642 02:51:16,520 --> 02:51:18,899 at that time the police chief was 3643 02:51:18,899 --> 02:51:21,120 directed to kind of go take a look back 3644 02:51:21,120 --> 02:51:23,220 at the crossing guard program that memo 3645 02:51:23,220 --> 02:51:25,740 is attached in this staff report and uh 3646 02:51:25,740 --> 02:51:28,200 the the biggest takeaway is uh to add 3647 02:51:28,200 --> 02:51:29,640 additional crossing guards would be 3648 02:51:29,640 --> 02:51:31,380 approximately twenty thousand dollars 3649 02:51:31,380 --> 02:51:33,899 per year per location and require 3650 02:51:33,899 --> 02:51:35,520 Amendment to the current budget and the 3651 02:51:35,520 --> 02:51:36,840 appropriate funds needed for that 3652 02:51:36,840 --> 02:51:41,880 contract now I handed it back to Jeff to 3653 02:51:41,880 --> 02:51:44,220 talk about the city-wide infrastructure 3654 02:51:44,220 --> 02:51:47,150 recommendations 3655 02:51:47,160 --> 02:51:50,760 thanks Matt so before I share the draft 3656 02:51:50,760 --> 02:51:52,380 school specific recommendations the plan 3657 02:51:52,380 --> 02:51:54,359 has three city-wide infrastructure 3658 02:51:54,359 --> 02:51:55,680 recommendations 3659 02:51:55,680 --> 02:51:57,840 first we recommend lowering speed limits 3660 02:51:57,840 --> 02:52:00,660 to 15 miles per hour in school zones 3661 02:52:00,660 --> 02:52:02,640 the second is to look at what policy 3662 02:52:02,640 --> 02:52:04,740 changes are necessary to make it easier 3663 02:52:04,740 --> 02:52:07,439 for staff to add always stops in school 3664 02:52:07,439 --> 02:52:08,520 zones 3665 02:52:08,520 --> 02:52:11,220 and finally adding Street trees and 3666 02:52:11,220 --> 02:52:13,260 green storm water infrastructure at the 3667 02:52:13,260 --> 02:52:15,120 same time that safety improvements go in 3668 02:52:15,120 --> 02:52:18,769 when funding allows 3669 02:52:18,779 --> 02:52:20,939 the city of San Bruno and the districts 3670 02:52:20,939 --> 02:52:23,100 served in this plan do not have 3671 02:52:23,100 --> 02:52:25,500 unlimited financial resources or staff 3672 02:52:25,500 --> 02:52:27,720 capacity so recognizing that 3673 02:52:27,720 --> 02:52:30,240 implementing every recommendation in the 3674 02:52:30,240 --> 02:52:32,520 plan may not be feasible 3675 02:52:32,520 --> 02:52:34,020 therefore we put we went through a 3676 02:52:34,020 --> 02:52:35,819 prioritization process to identify the 3677 02:52:35,819 --> 02:52:38,399 highest impact and lowest cost projects 3678 02:52:38,399 --> 02:52:40,740 this plan uses the following criteria to 3679 02:52:40,740 --> 02:52:42,660 select those high priority projects 3680 02:52:42,660 --> 02:52:45,540 across the city and for each School 3681 02:52:45,540 --> 02:52:47,399 the first is location projects and 3682 02:52:47,399 --> 02:52:49,260 locations with the greatest risk 3683 02:52:49,260 --> 02:52:51,120 indicated by that Collision analysis 3684 02:52:51,120 --> 02:52:53,279 that I shared with you previously 3685 02:52:53,279 --> 02:52:55,680 second was efficacy there have been many 3686 02:52:55,680 --> 02:52:57,660 studies about how efficient or you know 3687 02:52:57,660 --> 02:53:00,120 effective different treatments are and 3688 02:53:00,120 --> 02:53:01,620 reducing crashes and so that was 3689 02:53:01,620 --> 02:53:03,000 something we looked at 3690 02:53:03,000 --> 02:53:05,040 and then the third and final criteria 3691 02:53:05,040 --> 02:53:07,080 was cost so this is where we scored 3692 02:53:07,080 --> 02:53:09,600 lower cost projects higher 3693 02:53:09,600 --> 02:53:12,060 I'll walk through uh now I'm going to 3694 02:53:12,060 --> 02:53:13,560 walk through each school's high priority 3695 02:53:13,560 --> 02:53:15,359 projects I'm not going to go through all 3696 02:53:15,359 --> 02:53:17,460 92 just the high priority ones for each 3697 02:53:17,460 --> 02:53:19,200 school that way you can come back with 3698 02:53:19,200 --> 02:53:22,969 any questions you have 3699 02:53:22,979 --> 02:53:24,720 after reviewing Community input and 3700 02:53:24,720 --> 02:53:26,279 conducting a walk audit at Allen 3701 02:53:26,279 --> 02:53:28,140 Elementary we found that cars moved 3702 02:53:28,140 --> 02:53:30,300 quickly on Lyndon Elm and Angus ABS we 3703 02:53:30,300 --> 02:53:31,979 also didn't find a need for crosswalk 3704 02:53:31,979 --> 02:53:33,960 improvements at intersections near the 3705 02:53:33,960 --> 02:53:36,420 schools near the school based on the 3706 02:53:36,420 --> 02:53:38,399 findings the plan recommended nine 3707 02:53:38,399 --> 02:53:40,200 infrastructure projects 3708 02:53:40,200 --> 02:53:42,060 the three high priority projects at 3709 02:53:42,060 --> 02:53:44,279 Allen are shown in the map in red at 3710 02:53:44,279 --> 02:53:46,319 number four on Angus Avenue where the 3711 02:53:46,319 --> 02:53:48,060 plan recommends making the school drop 3712 02:53:48,060 --> 02:53:51,180 off Loop a write-in right out only for 3713 02:53:51,180 --> 02:53:53,160 vehicles the other two high priority 3714 02:53:53,160 --> 02:53:55,020 recommendations are number six at 3715 02:53:55,020 --> 02:53:57,060 Genevieve and Acacia Ave and number 3716 02:53:57,060 --> 02:53:59,460 seven at Genevieve and Cypress ABS the 3717 02:53:59,460 --> 02:54:01,200 plan recommends studying adding all 3718 02:54:01,200 --> 02:54:03,359 waste stops and then also adding red 3719 02:54:03,359 --> 02:54:05,279 curb near the crosswalks at both of 3720 02:54:05,279 --> 02:54:09,410 these locations 3721 02:54:09,420 --> 02:54:11,460 at Bel Air Elementary findings from the 3722 02:54:11,460 --> 02:54:13,140 walk audit and Survey are consistent 3723 02:54:13,140 --> 02:54:14,460 with the school safety assessment 3724 02:54:14,460 --> 02:54:16,859 conducted in 2019 3725 02:54:16,859 --> 02:54:18,840 specifically concerns about congestion 3726 02:54:18,840 --> 02:54:20,700 at the school entrance on Third Avenue 3727 02:54:20,700 --> 02:54:22,500 and around the loading zones and 3728 02:54:22,500 --> 02:54:24,240 speeding into and out of the school 3729 02:54:24,240 --> 02:54:30,290 parking lot connecting to First Avenue 3730 02:54:30,300 --> 02:54:31,920 the planning effort was more extensive 3731 02:54:31,920 --> 02:54:33,899 than the previous School assessment as 3732 02:54:33,899 --> 02:54:35,520 such these findings are consistent with 3733 02:54:35,520 --> 02:54:36,899 the previous work and in some cases 3734 02:54:36,899 --> 02:54:38,880 Provide support for more robust 3735 02:54:38,880 --> 02:54:40,680 Solutions the plan recommends 11 3736 02:54:40,680 --> 02:54:42,660 improvements around Bel Air 3737 02:54:42,660 --> 02:54:44,340 high priority recommendations include 3738 02:54:44,340 --> 02:54:46,260 numbers three and four shown in red on 3739 02:54:46,260 --> 02:54:47,819 the map which focus on improving 3740 02:54:47,819 --> 02:54:49,319 conditions where the school drop-off 3741 02:54:49,319 --> 02:54:52,680 Loop meets Lions Park number three adds 3742 02:54:52,680 --> 02:54:54,660 a sidewalk connection into Lion's Park 3743 02:54:54,660 --> 02:54:57,060 parking lot to connect the school with 3744 02:54:57,060 --> 02:54:58,740 the existing pedestrian path towards the 3745 02:54:58,740 --> 02:55:00,899 south side of the Lot Number Four adds a 3746 02:55:00,899 --> 02:55:03,120 raised crosswalk and a right in right 3747 02:55:03,120 --> 02:55:05,880 out style directive to slow and simplify 3748 02:55:05,880 --> 02:55:08,580 vehicle movements at that location 3749 02:55:08,580 --> 02:55:10,680 recommendations two and six also clarify 3750 02:55:10,680 --> 02:55:12,660 pedestrian right-of-way by making a 3751 02:55:12,660 --> 02:55:14,580 crosswalk across the driveway around the 3752 02:55:14,580 --> 02:55:20,510 school 3753 02:55:20,520 --> 02:55:22,800 the walk audit and our survey feedback 3754 02:55:22,800 --> 02:55:24,600 at cappuccino highlighted long 3755 02:55:24,600 --> 02:55:26,939 uncomfortable Crossings especially to 3756 02:55:26,939 --> 02:55:29,700 the east of Campus on El Camino Real 3757 02:55:29,700 --> 02:55:32,279 people also noted the rolled curb on on 3758 02:55:32,279 --> 02:55:34,020 the sidewalks that allowed cars to park 3759 02:55:34,020 --> 02:55:35,939 and block the sidewalk making it 3760 02:55:35,939 --> 02:55:38,100 challenging for people to walk in some 3761 02:55:38,100 --> 02:55:41,389 areas around the school 3762 02:55:41,399 --> 02:55:43,979 plan recommends 11 projects at 3763 02:55:43,979 --> 02:55:45,720 cappuccino 3764 02:55:45,720 --> 02:55:47,279 the high priority improvements are 3765 02:55:47,279 --> 02:55:48,899 mostly along El Camino Real you can see 3766 02:55:48,899 --> 02:55:52,680 this on 7 8 and 11. those include mostly 3767 02:55:52,680 --> 02:55:55,620 adding always stops and recommending 3768 02:55:55,620 --> 02:55:57,660 straightening the right turn Lanes to 3769 02:55:57,660 --> 02:55:58,979 align with the street to improve 3770 02:55:58,979 --> 02:56:00,680 visibility and slow 3771 02:56:00,680 --> 02:56:05,210 turning traffic 3772 02:56:05,220 --> 02:56:07,560 yeah John Muir a walk audit participants 3773 02:56:07,560 --> 02:56:09,840 noticed significant congestion along 3774 02:56:09,840 --> 02:56:11,819 crestmore Drive leading North from the 3775 02:56:11,819 --> 02:56:13,859 school along with the other Drive driver 3776 02:56:13,859 --> 02:56:15,300 behavior and conditions that made it 3777 02:56:15,300 --> 02:56:17,460 challenging to Cross crestmore Drive 3778 02:56:17,460 --> 02:56:19,560 additional Community input reinforced 3779 02:56:19,560 --> 02:56:22,020 Crossing difficulties at existing marked 3780 02:56:22,020 --> 02:56:24,000 and unmarked crosswalks 3781 02:56:24,000 --> 02:56:25,740 so therefore we came up with 10 3782 02:56:25,740 --> 02:56:27,660 improvements at Muir the highest 3783 02:56:27,660 --> 02:56:28,859 priority improvements are focused on 3784 02:56:28,859 --> 02:56:30,840 making it easier for students and 3785 02:56:30,840 --> 02:56:32,760 community members across crestmore drive 3786 02:56:32,760 --> 02:56:35,399 at Cambridge Lane close to the school 3787 02:56:35,399 --> 02:56:37,220 recommendation you can see number four 3788 02:56:37,220 --> 02:56:40,979 includes an all-way stop warrant study 3789 02:56:40,979 --> 02:56:43,979 and then recommendation six adds Boll 3790 02:56:43,979 --> 02:56:46,260 alerts or posts to create a hardened 3791 02:56:46,260 --> 02:56:47,880 Center Line on Cambridge Lane 3792 02:56:47,880 --> 02:56:51,479 approaching the school entrance 3793 02:56:51,479 --> 02:56:54,309 foreign 3794 02:56:54,319 --> 02:56:56,819 schools these are County run special 3795 02:56:56,819 --> 02:56:58,500 education facilities where the student 3796 02:56:58,500 --> 02:57:01,020 body is bussed to campus their walking 3797 02:57:01,020 --> 02:57:02,939 and biking needs are somewhat limited as 3798 02:57:02,939 --> 02:57:05,220 a result however school officials on the 3799 02:57:05,220 --> 02:57:06,420 walk audit share that students 3800 02:57:06,420 --> 02:57:08,399 frequently crossed Commodore Drive to 3801 02:57:08,399 --> 02:57:10,500 access the park across the street and 3802 02:57:10,500 --> 02:57:11,640 would benefit from improved 3803 02:57:11,640 --> 02:57:16,250 accessibility and ease of that Crossing 3804 02:57:16,260 --> 02:57:18,180 we have four recommendations at the 3805 02:57:18,180 --> 02:57:20,160 school site the high priority project is 3806 02:57:20,160 --> 02:57:21,840 located on Commodore Drive at the school 3807 02:57:21,840 --> 02:57:24,060 entrance and includes painting a high 3808 02:57:24,060 --> 02:57:26,819 visibility crosswalk across the driveway 3809 02:57:26,819 --> 02:57:28,800 and realigning the curb ramps to make 3810 02:57:28,800 --> 02:57:31,439 the entrance to the school grounds more 3811 02:57:31,439 --> 02:57:34,190 accessible 3812 02:57:34,200 --> 02:57:36,840 at Parkside walk audit participants and 3813 02:57:36,840 --> 02:57:38,520 Community input noted significant 3814 02:57:38,520 --> 02:57:41,160 digestion and double parking along Niles 3815 02:57:41,160 --> 02:57:43,560 Avenue adjacent to school which made it 3816 02:57:43,560 --> 02:57:45,420 difficult for students to cross from the 3817 02:57:45,420 --> 02:57:48,180 adjacent neighborhood genevine Ave was 3818 02:57:48,180 --> 02:57:49,740 also identified as a barrier for 3819 02:57:49,740 -->

project 3822 02:57:56,880 --> 02:57:59,040 team also explored potential connections 3823 02:57:59,040 --> 02:58:02,040 to the South to dissipate some of the 3824 02:58:02,040 --> 02:58:03,479 congestion on the north side of the 3825 02:58:03,479 --> 02:58:06,530 school 3826 02:58:06,540 --> 02:58:08,660 of the nine recommendations 3827 02:58:08,660 --> 02:58:11,040 projects that worksite

02:58:48,720 --> 02:58:50,819 the walk audit at Portola and Community 3845 02:58:50,819 --> 02:58:52,620 input noted and comfortable conditions 3846 02:58:52,620 --> 02:58:55,260 walking along Amador Avenue due to foggy 3847 02:58:55,260 --> 02:58:57,660 conditions and lack of street lights the 3848 02:58:57,660 --> 02:58:59,340 project team also heard concerns about 3849 02:58:59,340 --> 02:59:02,040 Crossing at busy intersections towards 3850 02:59:02,040 --> 02:59:03,960 and including Skyline Boulevard that 3851 02:59:03,960 --> 02:59:05,580 serve as a barrier for students and 3852 02:59:05,580 --> 02:59:09,240 caregivers about and about visibility 3853 02:59:09,240 --> 02:59:10,740 concerns that the existing Crossing on 3854 02:59:10,740 --> 02:59:13,620 Amador near the school entrance 3855 02:59:13,620 --> 02:59:15,660 we have five recommendations at Portola 3856 02:59:15,660 --> 02:59:17,340 the highest priority recommendation is 3857 02:59:17,340 --> 02:59:20,340 to increase pedestrian accessibility 3858 02:59:20,340 --> 02:59:22,319 and visibility at the school entrance on 3859 02:59:22,319 --> 02:59:24,660 Amador Ave by adding curb ramps and a 3860 02:59:24,660 --> 02:59:26,520 high visibility crosswalk as well as 3861 02:59:26,520 --> 02:59:28,680 reinforcing simplified traffic flow with 3862 02:59:28,680 --> 02:59:34,849 right in right out only Flex posts 3863 02:59:34,859 --> 02:59:36,540 the largest opportunity for improvement 3864 02:59:36,540 --> 02:59:38,279 shared by The Rolling one Community was 3865 02:59:38,279 --> 02:59:40,140 the current traffic congestion during 3866 02:59:40,140 --> 02:59:42,000 pickup and drop-off due to Vehicles 3867 02:59:42,000 --> 02:59:44,460 parked on Cottonwood Drive knowing that 3868 02:59:44,460 --> 02:59:46,200 Rolling Wood is slated to close at the 3869 02:59:46,200 --> 02:59:48,479 end of the 22-23-3 school year the 3870 02:59:48,479 --> 02:59:50,160 project team also looked at connections 3871 02:59:50,160 --> 02:59:52,140 to other neighborhoods at the periphery 3872 02:59:52,140 --> 02:59:55,550 of rolling one school zone 3873 02:59:55,560 --> 02:59:57,060 of the six recommendations at 3874 02:59:57,060 --> 02:59:59,399 Rollingwood three are high priority the 3875 02:59:59,399 --> 03:00:00,660 first and easiest is to implement 3876 03:00:00,660 --> 03:00:02,340 recommendation number two on the map 3877 03:00:02,340 --> 03:00:04,319 priveting marketing parking along 3878 03:00:04,319 --> 03:00:06,720 Cottonwood where the pot pick up and 3879 03:00:06,720 --> 03:00:08,819 drop off cues form a bottleneck the 3880 03:00:08,819 --> 03:00:10,979 other two high priority projects are 3881 03:00:10,979 --> 03:00:13,439 adding high visibility crosswalks and 3882 03:00:13,439 --> 03:00:14,819 exploring traffic calming along 3883 03:00:14,819 --> 03:00:18,110 Rollingwood Drive 3884 03:00:18,120 --> 03:00:20,399 at St Robert Elementary project team 3885 03:00:20,399 --> 03:00:21,960 heard from Community about traffic 3886 03:00:21,960 --> 03:00:23,880 moving quickly and a need for traffic 3887 03:00:23,880 --> 03:00:26,220 calming along Oak Avenue as well as 3888 03:00:26,220 --> 03:00:28,500 Crossing concerns at Oak and Niles and 3889 03:00:28,500 --> 03:00:30,240 Oak and Crystal Springs 3890 03:00:30,240 --> 03:00:31,920 during the walk audit the project team 3891 03:00:31,920 --> 03:00:33,960 had similar observations and also noted 3892 03:00:33,960 --> 03:00:36,060 challenging pedestrian visibility around 3893 03:00:36,060 --> 03:00:37,979 the many entrances and exits of school 3894 03:00:37,979 --> 03:00:40,319 and church parking lots along Oak and 3895 03:00:40,319 --> 03:00:42,889 Crystal Springs 3896 03:00:42,899 --> 03:00:45,359 the plan recommends 13 projects around 3897 03:00:45,359 --> 03:00:47,100 St Roberts and the highest priority 3898 03:00:47,100 --> 03:00:48,420 recommendations are related to 3899 03:00:48,420 --> 03:00:50,939 pedestrian visibility along and at 3900 03:00:50,939 --> 03:00:57,710 Crystal Springs Road near Oak Avenue 3901 03:00:57,720 --> 03:00:59,460 Highlands Christian School this is the 3902 03:00:59,460 --> 03:01:00,540 first of the three partially 3903 03:01:00,540 --> 03:01:01,979 participating schools that did not 3904 03:01:01,979 --> 03:01:04,260 receive a walk audit however conditions 3905 03:01:04,260 --> 03:01:05,819 observed during the Portola Elementary 3906 03:01:05,819 --> 03:01:07,560 walk audit informed recommendations 3907 03:01:07,560 --> 03:01:09,479 nearby at Highlands as you can see 3908 03:01:09,479 --> 03:01:12,439 portola's shown here just up the street 3909 03:01:12,439 --> 03:01:16,080 on on Amador Ave recommendation number 3910 03:01:16,080 --> 03:01:18,120 one it's a high priority to increase 3911 03:01:18,120 --> 03:01:19,620 pedestrian visibility at the school 3912 03:01:19,620 --> 03:01:21,479 entrance by extending the red curbs on 3913

that light up to tell you how fast 3919 03:01:32,819 --> 03:01:33,899 you're going 3920 03:01:33,899 --> 03:01:35,939 adding speed humps or visually nearing 3921 03:01:35,939 --> 03:01:37,680 the travel Lanes by striping The Edge 3922 03:01:37,680 --> 03:01:39,240 Lane of parking 3923 03:01:39,240 --> 03:01:41,220 all of the traffic calming would need to 3924 03:01:41,220 --> 03:01:43,200 adhere to the city's traffic calming 3925 03:01:43,200 --> 03:01:45,020 program 3926 03:01:45,020 --> 03:01:47,399 monteverdi is another school that the 3927 03:01:47,399 --> 03:01:49,200 project team did not conduct a full walk 3928 03:01:49,200 --> 03:01:52,140 audit however we sent our engineering 3929 03:01:52,140 --> 03:01:54,660 team out there to look at observations 3930 03:01:54,660 --> 03:01:56,399 and came up with additional 3931 03:01:56,399 --> 03:01:58,740 recommendations a high priority is here 3932 03:01:58,740 --> 03:01:59,939 at 3933 03:01:59,939 --> 03:02:02,220 um Saint

03:02:07,500 visibility crosswalks on all legs of the 3937 03:02:07,500 --> 03:02:09,960 intersection installing paint and post 3938 03:02:09,960 --> 03:02:12,300 curb extensions and extending the length 3939 03:02:12,300 --> 03:02:16,910 of the adjacent no parking zones 3940 03:02:16,920 --> 03:02:19,859 Stratford school is the final partially 3941 03:02:19,859 --> 03:02:22,500 participating school and like the others 3942 03:02:22,500 --> 03:02:24,540 did not receive a full audit but from 3943 03:02:24,540 --> 03:02:26,760 the input we received from the public we 3944 03:02:26,760 --> 03:02:28,200 came up with a series of recommendations 3945 03:02:28,200 --> 03:02:30,960 high priority number one on the map is 3946 03:02:30,960 --> 03:02:33,000 extending no parking zones around the 3947 03:02:33,000 --> 03:02:34,380 existing crosswalk at the school 3948 03:02:34,380 --> 03:02:35,460 entrance 3949 03:02:35,460 --> 03:02:39,660 number three is to evaluate install 3950 03:02:39,660

03:05:45,600 --> 03:05:47,460 intersections where there's just so many 4027 03:05:47,460 --> 03:05:50,340 cars now that our roads weren't designed 4028 03:05:50,340 --> 03:05:53,040 to have that many cars and now 4029 03:05:53,040 --> 03:05:55,319 people are parking and blocking the line 4030 03:05:55,319 --> 03:05:57,420 of sight and and 4031 03:05:57,420 --> 03:05:59,040 um 4032 03:05:59,040 --> 03:06:01,920 I'm looking forward to implementing some 4033 03:06:01,920 --> 03:06:03,300 of these things I'm concerned of course 4034 03:06:03,300 --> 03:06:05,290 of the cost just like everything else 4035 03:06:05,290 --> 03:06:05,700 [Music] 4036 03:06:05,700 --> 03:06:06,479 um 4037 03:06:06,479 --> 03:06:09,180 were trying to do our best with the 4038 03:06:09,180 --> 03:06:12,180 money that we have I am encouraged by 4039 03:06:12,180 --> 03:06:16,200 the grant opportunities and 4040 03:06:16,200 --> 03:06:19,800 um as we go forward with our budget 4041 03:06:19,800 --> 03:06:22,640 to seeing how we could start taking 4042 03:06:22,640 --> 03:06:25,380 bites out of these things to making and 4043 03:06:25,380 --> 03:06:28,500 I really appreciate the 4044 03:06:28,500 --> 03:06:30,899 um the way that it's prioritized for for 4045 03:06:30,899 --> 03:06:33,300 getting the low-cost effective ones I 4046 03:06:33,300 --> 03:06:36,779 mean a lot of crosswalks back in the day 4047 03:06:36,779 --> 03:06:39,300 I I recall 4048 03:06:39,300 --> 03:06:43,020 um how we would repaint crosswalks like 4049 03:06:43,020 --> 03:06:44,700 every other year and then and and I 4050 03:06:44,700 --> 03:06:46,260 think we've kind of gone away from that 4051 03:06:46,260 --> 03:06:48,899 and there's a lot of striping that needs 4052 03:06:48,899 --> 03:06:51,180 to be done on not just the crosswalks 4053 03:06:51,180 --> 03:06:53,880 but on our streets as we heard earlier 4054 03:06:53,880 --> 03:06:55,460 today 4055 03:06:55,460 --> 03:07:00,240 so a lot of thanks for everyone 4056 03:07:00,240 --> 03:07:03,180 um and uh there's a lot now it's there's 4057 03:07:03,180 --> 03:07:06,060 a lot of work ahead so how we achieve 4058 03:07:06,060 --> 03:07:08,819 that I look forward to the budget and 4059 03:07:08,819 --> 03:07:10,260 seeing how we can get those grants so 4060 03:07:10,260 --> 03:07:12,300 thank you all for your work 4061 03:07:12,300 --> 03:07:18,180 thank you councilmember Alvarez please thank you 4062 03:07:18,180 --> 03:07:19,740 um I want to acknowledge sorry everyone 4063 03:07:19,740 --> 03:07:22,080 really quickly 4064 03:07:22,080 --> 03:07:25,319 the I think it I think it's page 24 or 4065 03:07:25,319 --> 03:07:29,389 25 of the slides 4066 03:07:29,399 --> 03:07:31,740 so I noticed I noticed that 4067 03:07:31,740 --> 03:07:34,020 um the regular sidewalk was painted uh 4068 03:07:34,020 --> 03:07:36,359 yellow very 4069 03:07:36,359 --> 03:07:39,720 um you know very attractive and then I 4070 03:07:39,720 --> 03:07:44,399 also saw the round round design material 4071 03:07:44,399 --> 03:07:49,740 I don't know what materialism how do you determine uh what specific 4072 03:07:49,740 --> 03:07:51,420 design 4073 03:07:51,420 --> 03:07:57,899 um to use I noticed that the the blue bubble I think it's on page 24 4074 03:07:57,899 --> 03:08:02,640 25. very attractive actually 4075 03:08:02,640 --> 03:08:05,100 um is that 4076 03:08:05,100 --> 03:08:08,460 but it's not it wasn't used for The 4077 03:08:08,460 --> 03:08:10,319 Pedestrian though unlike the yellow 4078 03:08:10,319 --> 03:08:14,389 paint 4079 03:08:14,399 --> 03:08:16,920 um yeah I'm trying to find the photo I 4080 03:08:16,920 --> 03:08:18,840 think slide 24 4081 03:08:18,840 --> 03:08:22,800 is slide 25 is just a concrete bulb out 4082 03:08:22,800 --> 03:08:24,960 location are you talking about that yes 4083 03:08:24,960 --> 03:08:26,520 the blue 4084 03:08:26,520 --> 03:08:29,880 blood design oh okay yeah so so uh so 4085 03:08:29,880 --> 03:08:32,399 like Jeff uh mentioned earlier these are 4086 03:08:32,399 --> 03:08:35,160 kind of the low-cost implementations uh 4087 03:08:35,160 --> 03:08:38,580 that we can kind of get out into uh the 4088 03:08:38,580 --> 03:08:41,760 into the real world uh without having to 4089 03:08:41,760 --> 03:08:43,800 spend a little too much money with the 4090 03:08:43,800 --> 03:08:46,080 final solution which is essentially the 4091 03:08:46,080 --> 03:08:49,979 concrete bulb out so uh I think what we've learned in the transportation 4092 03:08:49,979 --> 03:08:51,420 field is that we can Implement these 4093 03:08:51,420 --> 03:08:52,740 quickly 4094 03:08:52,740 --> 03:08:55,500 um and and and have them out there so 4095 03:08:55,500 --> 03:08:57,359 that they can expect so that the 4096 03:08:57,359 --> 03:08:59,700 traveling pedestrians can experience the 4097 03:08:59,700 --> 03:09:01,920 benefit prior to us finding a solution 4098 03:09:01,920 --> 03:09:04,920 of putting in actual concrete because 4099 03:09:04,920 --> 03:09:06,359 you know with the concrete work here 4100 03:09:06,359 --> 03:09:08,460 it's not just putting another sidewalk 4101 03:09:08,460 --> 03:09:10,740 out it's actually re-grading and looking 4102 03:09:10,740 --> 03:09:13,500 at the flow line for storm drainage uh 4103 03:09:13,500 --> 03:09:15,300 for for the intersection and trying to 4104 03:09:15,300 --> 03:09:16,859 make sure that that works and so that's 4105 03:09:16,859 --> 03:09:18,420 where the complications are so these are 4106 03:09:18,420 --> 03:09:20,340 kind of like Jeff said 4107 03:09:20,340 --> 03:09:23,279 um the the infrastructure improvements 4108 03:09:23,279 --> 03:09:24,779 that we can see a little more quickly 4109 03:09:24,779 --> 03:09:27,000 obviously these would be an air areas 4110 03:09:27,000 --> 03:09:29,580 where the wreck these are implemented in 4111 03:09:29,580 --> 03:09:31,260 areas where we're trying to shorten the 4112 03:09:31,260 --> 03:09:33,600 crossing distance 4113 03:09:33,600 --> 03:09:36,479 between the yellow visibility material 4114 03:09:36,479 --> 03:09:37,939 that we usually 4115 03:09:37,939 --> 03:09:42,420 see on the ram in in the sidewall and 4116 03:09:42,420 --> 03:09:44,700 they use that a lot for visibility but 4117 03:09:44,700 --> 03:09:46,680 you mentioned that you know this is also 4118 03:09:46,680 --> 03:09:49,800 as part of the reason for visibility so 4119 03:09:49,800 --> 03:09:52,680 between the two I probably would lean to 4120 03:09:52,680 --> 03:09:55,260 that the blue design the round blue 4121 03:09:55,260 --> 03:09:58,620 design very nice thank you 4122 03:09:58,620 --> 03:10:01,859 councilmember Salazar thank you sir uh 4123 03:10:01,859 --> 03:10:03,600 so one one question 4124 03:10:03,600 --> 03:10:05,340 um Matt I was wondering if you had had a 4125 03:10:05,340 --> 03:10:08,100 chance or will you at some point uh see 4126 03:10:08,100 --> 03:10:10,260 if there's an intersection between the 4127 03:10:10,260 --> 03:10:12,180 projects recommended here and projects 4128 03:10:12,180 --> 03:10:15,479 that we have in in flight or planning 4129 03:10:15,479 --> 03:10:19,979 already I was thinking you know we're going to put the the traffic 4130 03:10:19,979 --> 03:10:22,800 signals uh in front of the entrance to 4131 03:10:22,800 --> 03:10:25,140 City Park and that could have a 4132 03:10:25,140 --> 03:10:26,819 significant impact in some of the 4133 03:10:26,819 --> 03:10:28,500 recommendations that were made around St 4134 03:10:28,500 --> 03:10:32,100 Roberts and so uh you know maybe if we 4135 03:10:32,100 --> 03:10:33,420 can 4136 03:10:33,420 --> 03:10:35,819 so we could potentially prioritize 4137 03:10:35,819 --> 03:10:38,160 projects that have already either been 4138 03:10:38,160 --> 03:10:39,899 vetted or we already know that something 4139 03:10:39,899 --> 03:10:42,359 is is in the works for them 4140 03:10:42,359 --> 03:10:44,520 yeah that's a that's a great comment um 4141 03:10:44,520 --> 03:10:47,760 so uh unfortunately the projects are 4142 03:10:47,760 --> 03:10:49,020 happening on different timelines right 4143 03:10:49,020 --> 03:10:50,760 like the intercession of city park we've 4144 03:10:50,760 --> 03:10:52,740 kind of gone through the analysis to 4145 03:10:52,740 --> 03:10:53,819 determine what we were going to do at 4146 03:10:53,819 --> 03:10:55,560 that intersection and so we're moving 4147 03:10:55,560 --> 03:10:57,660 ahead with design we're in the process 4148 03:10:57,660 --> 03:11:00,060 of trying to get this plan adopted but 4149 03:11:00,060 --> 03:11:01,740 the good news is once this plan does get 4150 03:11:01,740 --> 03:11:04,260 adopted then we kind of make sure we 4151 03:11:04,260 --> 03:11:05,640 look take a look at our existing 4152 03:11:05,640 --> 03:11:07,740 projects to see where we can find 4153 03:11:07,740 --> 03:11:09,600 synergies between the recommendations 4154 03:11:09,600 --> 03:11:11,220 and what we're currently implementing 4155 03:11:11,220 --> 03:11:14,460 okay and then my my next question was 4156 03:11:14,460 --> 03:11:16,740 just you know regarding these projects 4157 03:11:16,740 --> 03:11:19,979 in general is there empirical data that 4158 03:11:19,979 --> 03:11:24,060 shows what level of participation we get 4159 03:11:24,060 --> 03:11:26,939 in communities for each of these types 4160 03:11:26,939 --> 03:11:29,220 of projects so you know what it what is 4161 03:11:29,220 --> 03:11:31,260 the real impact right because people may 4162 03:11:31,260 --> 03:11:33,660 say yeah we'd like to ride our bikes to 4163 03:11:33,660 --> 03:11:36,300 school with our kids but once once the 4164 03:11:36,300 --> 03:11:38,939 routes are in place is there any 4165 03:11:38,939 --> 03:11:40,740 evidence that people actually follow 4166 03:11:40,740 --> 03:11:42,840 through on that commitment yeah so 4167 03:11:42,840 --> 03:11:44,460 um I can bring Jeff up to talk about 4168 03:11:44,460 --> 03:11:46,200 kind of the before and after studies of 4169 03:11:46,200 --> 03:11:49,740 the plan and how we measure if the 4170 03:11:49,740 --> 03:11:51,359 infrastructure or the improvements are 4171 03:11:51,359 --> 03:11:53,100 working yeah 4172 03:11:53,100 --> 03:11:54,779 a great question again Jeff Knowles with 4173 03:11:54,779 --> 03:11:57,479 Alta this gets question asked asked a 4174 03:11:57,479 --> 03:11:58,979 lot about when we make this investment 4175 03:11:58,979 --> 03:12:00,899 are we actually see a return on that the 4176 03:12:00,899 --> 03:12:02,580 answer is yes if you combine the 4177 03:12:02,580 --> 03:12:04,319 engineering with the non-infrastructure 4178 03:12:04,319 --> 03:12:06,000 programs together they kind of work hand 4179 03:12:06,000 --> 03:12:07,680 in hand you can't just have new 4180 03:12:07,680 --> 03:12:09,779 infrastructure and hope for the best so 4181 03:12:09,779 --> 03:12:11,160 that's where this plan really marries 4182 03:12:11,160 --> 03:12:12,960 the two together in partnership with 4183 03:12:12,960 --> 03:12:15,060 school districts with other like the 4184 03:12:15,060 --> 03:12:17,040 County Office of Education provides a 4185 03:12:17,040 --> 03:12:18,960 lot of resources so I think together you 4186 03:12:18,960 --> 03:12:20,100 can see that 4187 03:12:20,100 --> 03:12:22,140 before and after studies Nationwide have 4188 03:12:22,140 --> 03:12:24,779 shown as much as a 20 increase in 4189 03:12:24,779 --> 03:12:26,279 children walking and bicycling to school 4190 03:12:26,279 --> 03:12:28,319 when there is a robust safer to school 4191 03:12:28,319 --> 03:12:30,240 program activated 4192 03:12:30,240 --> 03:12:32,160 okay thank you so it's more than just 4193 03:12:32,160 --> 03:12:33,600 build it and they will come it's more 4194 03:12:33,600 --> 03:12:34,920 than just build it and we come it has to 4195 03:12:34,920 --> 03:12:37,680 be a steady consistent investment all 4196 03:12:37,680 --> 03:12:39,180 right so well thank you and and I also 4197 03:12:39,180 --> 03:12:40,680 wanted to say that it was a very 4198 03:12:40,680 --> 03:12:42,600 impressive report I enjoyed reading it 4199 03:12:42,600 --> 03:12:44,340 so thank you 4200 03:12:44,340 --> 03:12:47,399 vice mayor Hamilton 4201 03:12:47,399 --> 03:12:49,800 uh I also agree it was very impressive 4202 03:12:49,800 --> 03:12:53,160 uh report and um very very comprehensive 4203 03:12:53,160 --> 03:12:55,859 I have a couple of of comments and then 4204 03:12:55,859 --> 03:12:57,899 a question the 4205 03:12:57,899 --> 03:13:01,020 um I'm all I'm also as as 4206 03:13:01,020 --> 03:13:03,840 um the council member Medina mentioned I 4207 03:13:03,840 --> 03:13:06,240 I'm concerned with the overall cost but 4208 03:13:06,240 --> 03:13:09,240 this is the the the in looking through 4209 03:13:09,240 --> 03:13:10,740 all of the 4210 03:13:10,740 --> 03:13:13,740 um all of the uh infrastructure 4211 03:13:13,740 --> 03:13:15,300 recommendations in the report and I did 4212 03:13:15,300 --> 03:13:16,560 that I read through every single one of 4213 03:13:16,560 --> 03:13:17,880 them 4214 03:13:17,880 --> 03:13:20,160 um I could they're all good projects 4215 03:13:20,160 --> 03:13:22,260 every single one of them they're so you 4216 03:13:22,260 --> 03:13:24,240 know I I so I appreciate that we you 4217 03:13:24,240 --> 03:13:25,560 know that we 4218 03:13:25,560 --> 03:13:27,120 um have already done the effort to 4219 03:13:27,120 --> 03:13:29,040 prioritize and and try to put some at 4220 03:13:29,040 --> 03:13:30,060 the top of the list but eventually 4221 03:13:30,060 --> 03:13:32,399 they're all going to 4222 03:13:32,399 --> 03:13:34,859 um and um so what I'm hoping that we'll 4223 03:13:34,859 --> 03:13:36,420 be able to leverage 4224 03:13:36,420 --> 03:13:38,819 um Consultants to do the bulk of the 4225 03:13:38,819 --> 03:13:40,380 design work under supervision from our 4226 03:13:40,380 --> 03:13:41,939 city staff 4227 03:13:41,939 --> 03:13:43,439 um as managers 4228 03:13:43,439 --> 03:13:46,920 um considering that especially if we're able to do these do this work 4229 03:13:46,920 --> 03:13:49,680 with one-time Grant funds 4230 03:13:49,680 --> 03:13:50,700 um 4231 03:13:50,700 --> 03:13:52,979 because it's going to take you know a 4232 03:13:52,979 --> 03:13:55,500 while to get a lot of these projects 4233 03:13:55,500 --> 03:13:58,560 um completed I I agree that the the 4234 03:13:58,560 --> 03:14:00,600 education piece 4235 03:14:00,600 --> 03:14:01,620 um is something that we need to get 4236 03:14:01,620 --> 03:14:03,779 after right away I had one question 4237 03:14:03,779 --> 03:14:08,700 regarding education and um there was a program in place when my 4238 03:14:08,700 --> 03:14:11,460 kids were in elementary school called uh 4239 03:14:11,460 --> 03:14:12,899 stop look wave 4240 03:14:12,899 --> 03:14:16,080 and I I it was and there was there was 4241 03:14:16,080 --> 03:14:17,700 Fanfare about it when it came out and 4242 03:14:17,700 --> 03:14:19,680 then then it kind of went away I don't 4243 03:14:19,680 --> 03:14:20,700 know if that was a school district 4244 03:14:20,700 --> 03:14:24,240 program or if it was a city program 4245 03:14:24,240 --> 03:14:26,100 um and basically what it was was that 4246 03:14:26,100 --> 03:14:28,200 education both for drivers and for 4247 03:14:28,200 --> 03:14:30,840 students to 4248 03:14:30,840 --> 03:14:33,960 um reduce the reduce the danger at 4249 03:14:33,960 --> 03:14:37,380 marked crosswalks meaning that when you 4250 03:14:37,380 --> 03:14:40,500 come to a crosswalk both the driver and 4251 03:14:40,500 --> 03:14:43,160 the people crossing the street 4252 03:14:43,160 --> 03:14:45,600 Endeavor to make eye contact and then 4253 03:14:45,600 --> 03:14:47,279 wait and 4254 03:14:47,279 --> 03:14:49,020 um and and then you know so then when 4255 03:14:49,020 --> 03:14:50,220 you see when you see the wave from the 4256 03:14:50,220 --> 03:14:52,020 driver you know that the driver sees you 4257 03:14:52,020 --> 03:14:54,300 and that you can cross safely 4258 03:14:54,300 --> 03:14:55,859 um I haven't heard anything about this 4259 03:14:55,859 --> 03:14:57,060 and I'm wondering if that's maybe just a 4260 03:14:57,060 --> 03:14:58,680 program that fizzled out and I just 4261 03:14:58,680 --> 03:15:00,479 wondered if if there was any mention of 4262 03:15:00,479 --> 03:15:03,120 that or or or if that came up at all 4263 03:15:03,120 --> 03:15:04,680 during the 4264 03:15:04,680 --> 03:15:06,359 um during the work to put together the 4265 03:15:06,359 --> 03:15:09,830 report 4266 03:15:09,840 --> 03:15:15,840 thank you uh councilmember Hamilton uh that is a good question uh like Jeff 4267 03:15:15,840 --> 03:15:17,760 knows indicated earlier 4268 03:15:17,760 --> 03:15:20,939 we there are various programs that you 4269 03:15:20,939 --> 03:15:23,640 can apply with the infrastructure fixes 4270 03:15:23,640 --> 03:15:25,560 uh you know with safe routes to school 4271 03:15:25,560 --> 03:15:27,479 they talk about the fivees you know 4272 03:15:27,479 --> 03:15:29,580 education enforcement and and all that 4273 03:15:29,580 --> 03:15:31,140 and so 4274 03:15:31,140 --> 03:15:33,359 um I have not specifically heard of that 4275 03:15:33,359 --> 03:15:35,220 program but the way you describe it it 4276 03:15:35,220 --> 03:15:37,560 makes sense right really the goal is to 4277 03:15:37,560 --> 03:15:40,319 make sure uh that the pedestrians and 4278 03:15:40,319 --> 03:15:41,939 the drivers see each other so there are 4279 03:15:41,939 --> 03:15:45,420 no collisions I can check with Jeff uh 4280 03:15:45,420 --> 03:15:47,279 to see if they're if he's aware of that 4281 03:15:47,279 --> 03:15:48,660 type of program 4282 03:15:48,660 --> 03:15:51,800 okay thank you there was a small 4283 03:15:51,800 --> 03:15:53,760 engineering component to it because they 4284 03:15:53,760 --> 03:15:55,620 actually painted the words stop look 4285 03:15:55,620 --> 03:15:58,859 wave in the in the in the crosswalks 4286 03:15:58,859 --> 03:16:00,660 um you know for the for the pedestrians 4287 03:16:00,660 --> 03:16:03,000 to see uh vice mayor thank you for that 4288 03:16:03,000 --> 03:16:04,560 and we've we've noted that when we were 4289 03:16:04,560 --> 03:16:06,000 doing walk on it so we saw that painted 4290 03:16:06,000 --> 03:16:07,680 on a lot of your cross so stop look wave 4291 03:16:07,680 --> 03:16:09,060 and we thought this is look at San Bruno 4292 03:16:09,060 --> 03:16:10,800 leading the way I've never seen any 4293 03:16:10,800 --> 03:16:13,260 other jurisdiction do that so I think 4294 03:16:13,260 --> 03:16:14,399 it's a good thing that we should 4295 03:16:14,399 --> 03:16:16,439 probably talk about maybe more in the 4296 03:16:16,439 --> 03:16:17,939 plan somewhere 4297 03:16:17,939 --> 03:16:20,279 um we don't know what happened to that 4298 03:16:20,279 --> 03:16:21,660 program but it's certainly part of the 4299 03:16:21,660 --> 03:16:23,220 driver awareness campaign that we did 4300 03:16:23,220 --> 03:16:25,319 call out in the plan as a as an activity 4301 03:16:25,319 --> 03:16:27,000 as part of the notification programs I 4302 03:16:27,000 --> 03:16:28,279 think the city should 4303 03:16:28,279 --> 03:16:31,080 look at most of them are Grant funded 4304 03:16:31,080 --> 03:16:33,120 through the office of traffic safety and 4305 03:16:33,120 --> 03:16:35,460 so this is one where I assume that it 4306 03:16:35,460 --> 03:16:37,500 had a grant ran its course and it's 4307 03:16:37,500 --> 03:16:38,939 probably not now it's the time to look 4308 03:16:38,939 --> 03:16:42,240 at that again so thank you okay thank 4309 03:16:42,240 --> 03:16:45,550 you for the explanation 4310 03:16:45,560 --> 03:16:49,260 thank you vice mayor uh city manager 4311 03:16:49,260 --> 03:16:50,939 thank you mayor uh Jess with stop 4312 03:16:50,939 --> 03:16:53,700 looking wave uh I am knowledgeable of 4313 03:16:53,700 --> 03:16:56,880 that stenciling that we did and um the 4314 03:16:56,880 --> 03:16:59,819 city does possess the actual stencil and 4315 03:16:59,819 --> 03:17:02,700 our staff does routinely repaint the 4316 03:17:02,700 --> 03:17:05,040 stop looking wave and certainly as we 4317 03:17:05,040 --> 03:17:07,200 look at those high priority projects we 4318 03:17:07,200 --> 03:17:09,479 can check back in with staff and see if 4319 03:17:09,479 --> 03:17:11,100 any of those crosswalks that currently 4320 03:17:11,100 --> 03:17:13,500 have it uh need a refresh and I believe 4321 03:17:13,500 --> 03:17:15,120 it was 4322 03:17:15,120 --> 03:17:17,880 I'll just say pre-covet when I last had 4323 03:17:17,880 --> 03:17:19,979 that conversation with staff and we did 4324 03:17:19,979 --> 03:17:22,920 a mini uh overtime program just to make 4325 03:17:22,920 --> 03:17:25,500 sure that um those crosswalks were 4326 03:17:25,500 --> 03:17:27,000 repainted and refreshed with stop 4327 03:17:27,000 --> 03:17:28,620 looking wave but know that we'll look 4328 03:17:28,620 --> 03:17:30,300 into that and we have that stencil and 4329 03:17:30,300 --> 03:17:32,580 that ability in-house 4330 03:17:32,580 --> 03:17:35,460 that's great through the mayor yes um 4331 03:17:35,460 --> 03:17:37,560 that that's that's great news and I'd 4332 03:17:37,560 --> 03:17:40,500 love to hear that and I would think that 4333 03:17:40,500 --> 03:17:42,420 we we Pro it's been a while so we 4334 03:17:42,420 --> 03:17:44,220 probably need to at least do some 4335 03:17:44,220 --> 03:17:47,220 Outreach to remind people what it means 4336 03:17:47,220 --> 03:17:49,140 not just not just paying it make sure 4337 03:17:49,140 --> 03:17:50,399 that it's there but remind people what 4338 03:17:50,399 --> 03:17:52,080 it actually means 4339 03:17:52,080 --> 03:17:55,979 um so that's just a suggestion thank you 4340 03:17:55,979 --> 03:17:58,319 yeah and for me uh I'll try to make it 4341 03:17:58,319 --> 03:18:00,660 brief not to um 4342 03:18:00,660 --> 03:18:02,279 also State what my colleagues have but 4343 03:18:02,279 --> 03:18:04,800 yes very detailed report I want to also 4344 03:18:04,800 --> 03:18:05,880 make mention that we're talking about 4345 03:18:05,880 --> 03:18:08,399 funding sources and obviously from the 4346 03:18:08,399 --> 03:18:10,080 San Mateo County Transportation 4347 03:18:10,080 --> 03:18:12,300 Authority funds were allocated uh for 4348 03:18:12,300 --> 03:18:14,340 this I remember voting on that 4349 03:18:14,340 --> 03:18:16,560 um and in addition obviously I'm not 4350 03:18:16,560 --> 03:18:18,180 going to speak any more about that since 4351 03:18:18,180 --> 03:18:19,620 I serve on that body 4352 03:18:19,620 --> 03:18:21,240 but also there was an item in the report 4353 03:18:21,240 --> 03:18:22,620 about SamTrans and working 4354 03:18:22,620 --> 03:18:24,720 collaboratively a lot of this report is 4355 03:18:24,720 --> 03:18:26,760 about being collaborative a lot on the 4356 03:18:26,760 --> 03:18:29,700 PTO ptas about the school district about 4357 03:18:29,700 --> 03:18:31,319 where where does that all that come 4358 03:18:31,319 --> 03:18:33,479 together as far as trying to get either 4359 03:18:33,479 --> 03:18:36,720 funding grants and or collaboration and 4360 03:18:36,720 --> 03:18:39,600 shall we say skin in the game but on the 4361 03:18:39,600 --> 03:18:41,580 SamTrans I know it alluded to cappuccino 4362 03:18:41,580 --> 03:18:43,880 and Parkside as far as having more buses 4363 03:18:43,880 --> 03:18:47,220 I want to say I can tell you that for 4364 03:18:47,220 --> 03:18:49,260 SamTrans it was a very much a direction 4365 03:18:49,260 --> 03:18:51,779 by the board of directors to have school 4366 03:18:51,779 --> 03:18:55,979 schedules aligned very much staff at the 4367 03:18:55,979 --> 03:18:58,560 transit district went out and tried to 4368 03:18:58,560 --> 03:19:01,319 reach out to all superintendents and the 4369 03:19:01,319 --> 03:19:04,020 districts I can tell you for Parkside as 4370 03:19:04,020 --> 03:19:06,060 an example they did not turn in the 4371 03:19:06,060 --> 03:19:09,120 survey but the Transit District staff 4372 03:19:09,120 --> 03:19:11,279 went online to look up the school 4373 03:19:11,279 --> 03:19:13,979 schedule and do the best they can as far 4374 03:19:13,979 --> 03:19:16,560 as with cappuccino high school it's also 4375 03:19:16,560 --> 03:19:18,779 very close to the El Camino Real route 4376 03:19:18,779 --> 03:19:22,500 so that is very much a hub as far as 4377 03:19:22,500 --> 03:19:25,380 getting to other locations and again we 4378 03:19:25,380 --> 03:19:27,779 also know the fact of everybody who 4379 03:19:27,779 --> 03:19:30,479 wants I'm sure it better in all their 4380 03:19:30,479 --> 03:19:31,880 Community but serving in the county 4381 03:19:31,880 --> 03:19:34,260 sometimes when you're adding routes then 4382 03:19:34,260 --> 03:19:36,060 some routes are going to have to go and 4383 03:19:36,060 --> 03:19:38,880 they're based on obviously ridership 4384 03:19:38,880 --> 03:19:42,240 and economics and the return so I just 4385 03:19:42,240 --> 03:19:43,920 wanted to make that comment on the the 4386 03:19:43,920 --> 03:19:47,100 two Transit District things but it is a 4387 03:19:47,100 --> 03:19:49,380 very detailed report I think council 4388 03:19:49,380 --> 03:19:51,660 member Medina might have said but you 4389 03:19:51,660 --> 03:19:53,060 know 4390 03:19:53,060 --> 03:19:55,800 it's a lot of money and so it's about 4391 03:19:55,800 --> 03:19:58,200 getting what you can get done but it's 4392 03:19:58,200 --> 03:20:00,420 also about trying to uh shall I say 4393 03:20:00,420 --> 03:20:02,640 partner with others and trying to see 4394 03:20:02,640 --> 03:20:04,260 what we can do so but thank you very 4395 03:20:04,260 --> 03:20:05,939 much for the report let me see if 4396 03:20:05,939 --> 03:20:08,640 there's anybody from the public that 4397

read 4604 03:29:13,260 --> 03:29:16,380 it it's also in the ordinance 4605 03:29:16,380 --> 03:29:17,160 um 4606 03:29:17,160 --> 03:29:18,899 the ordinance does not apply to 4607 03:29:18,899 -->

the proposed ordinance 4616 03:29:39,720 --> 03:29:41,939 prohibited Anonymous contributions in 4617 03:29:41,939 --> 03:29:44,760 any amount which essentially imposed a 4618 03:29:44,760 --> 03:29:47,580 requirement to track uh the source of 4619 03:29:47,580 --> 03:29:49,439 all contributions and the question was 4620 03:29:49,439 --> 03:29:52,979 does this impose a requirement on 4621 03:29:52,979 --> 03:29:55,260 candidates that exceeds what's already 4622 03:29:55,260 --> 03:29:57,779 in the political reform Act 4623 03:29:57,779 --> 03:30:00,239 so under the political reform act there 4624 03:30:00,239 --> 03:30:02,939 is a clear prohibition to receive 4625 03:30:02,939 --> 03:30:04,859 Anonymous contributions of a hundred 4626 03:30:04,859 --> 03:30:07,200 dollars or more from any person 4627 03:30:07,200 --> 03:30:09,300 and also in the political reform act 4628 03:30:09,300 --> 03:30:12,359 there's a requirement to report when the 4629 03:30:12,359 --> 03:30:14,460 total amount of contributions received 4630 03:30:14,460 --> 03:30:18,359 from any person exceeds 100 or more 4631 03:30:18,359 --> 03:30:20,220 so these two Provisions together 4632 03:30:20,220 --> 03:30:22,920 actually are an applied obligation to 4633 03:30:22,920 --> 03:30:24,720 track contributions under a hundred 4634 03:30:24,720 --> 03:30:27,720 dollars because you'd have to know if 4635 03:30:27,720 --> 03:30:29,939 somebody gave you fifty dollars if you 4636 03:30:29,939 --> 03:30:31,920 got another fifty dollars did that come 4637 03:30:31,920 --> 03:30:34,979 from the same person so 4638 03:30:34,979 --> 03:30:36,899 the ordinance that I'm bringing back to 4639 03:30:36,899 --> 03:30:38,640 you is the same ordinance that you 4640 03:30:38,640 --> 03:30:41,760 looked at in December 4641 03:30:41,760 --> 03:30:45,660 and the question to you is are you 4642 03:30:45,660 --> 03:30:48,660 satisfied with having explicit the 4643 03:30:48,660 --> 03:30:51,720 obligation to track obligations 4644 03:30:51,720 --> 03:30:54,479 under a hundred dollars or do you want 4645 03:30:54,479 --> 03:30:57,300 to remove that obligation so that you 4646 03:30:57,300 --> 03:31:00,300 are uh so so you don't have this clear 4647 03:31:00,300 --> 03:31:01,800 requirement 4648 03:31:01,800 --> 03:31:04,859 um and you are more clearly aligned 4649 03:31:04,859 --> 03:31:06,720 with the specific language of the 4650 03:31:06,720 --> 03:31:09,300 political reform Act 4651 03:31:09,300 --> 03:31:11,580 so there's two potential recommended 4652 03:31:11,580 --> 03:31:14,819 actions the first is to if you're going 4653 03:31:14,819 --> 03:31:17,220 to establish the campaign contribution 4654 03:31:17,220 --> 03:31:20,939 limits you can have the motion is to 4655 03:31:20,939 --> 03:31:22,680 introduce read by title only and wave 4656 03:31:22,680 --> 03:31:24,600 further reading of an ordinance adding 4657 03:31:24,600 --> 03:31:27,840 chapter 2.33 to the San Bruno Municipal 4658 03:31:27,840 --> 03:31:29,340 Code adopting local campaign 4659 03:31:29,340 --> 03:31:31,560 contribution limits in the alternative 4660 03:31:31,560 --> 03:31:33,479 motion if you want to remove the 4661 03:31:33,479 --> 03:31:34,859 prohibition against Anonymous 4662 03:31:34,859 --> 03:31:37,140 contributions would be to make that same 4663 03:31:37,140 --> 03:31:40,439 motion but also direct or to specify 4664 03:31:40,439 --> 03:31:43,020 that the ordinance you're adopting would 4665 03:31:43,020 --> 03:31:46,380 uh Delete paragraph B of section 4666 03:31:46,380 --> 03:31:49,670 2.33.030 4667 03:31:49,680 --> 03:31:51,540 and with that I'm happy to take any 4668 03:31:51,540 --> 03:31:57,650 questions any questions from colleagues 4669 03:31:57,660 --> 03:31:58,319 um 4670 03:31:58,319 --> 03:32:01,439 questions council member questions yes 4671 03:32:01,439 --> 03:32:02,460 please 4672 03:32:02,460 --> 03:32:03,660 so 4673 03:32:03,660 --> 03:32:06,920 for clarification on the 4674 03:32:06,920 --> 03:32:09,300 anonymous donations 4675 03:32:09,300 --> 03:32:10,319 so 4676 03:32:10,319 --> 03:32:12,720 there's a distinction I guess between 4677 03:32:12,720 --> 03:32:15,840 tracking and Reporting correct right and 4678 03:32:15,840 --> 03:32:18,720 so what we're required to report is 4679 03:32:18,720 --> 03:32:21,000 anything that exceeds a hundred dollars 4680 03:32:21,000 --> 03:32:24,359 from an individual correct so 4681 03:32:24,359 --> 03:32:28,620 if we are to specify an R 4682 03:32:28,620 --> 03:32:31,680 uh ordinance that we 4683 03:32:31,680 --> 03:32:35,100 do not allow Anonymous does that imply 4684 03:32:35,100 --> 03:32:37,739 also that we are required to report it 4685 03:32:37,739 --> 03:32:40,800 does not no it is it is merely an 4686 03:32:40,800 --> 03:32:43,080 obligation to not accept an anonymous 4687 03:32:43,080 --> 03:32:46,800 donation it is just an obligation to 4688 03:32:46,800 --> 03:32:48,899 inquire as to the source of that 4689 03:32:48,899 --> 03:32:50,880 information have some way of tracking it 4690 03:32:50,880 --> 03:32:52,560 but you're not there's no reporting 4691 03:32:52,560 --> 03:32:54,720 requirements the 4692 03:32:54,720 --> 03:32:55,500 um 4693 03:32:55,500 --> 03:32:57,660 the ordinance does not change the 4694 03:32:57,660 --> 03:32:59,580 reporting requirements they are what 4695 03:32:59,580 --> 03:33:04,279 they are in the political reform act the form requires the reporting of all 4696 03:33:04,279 --> 03:33:07,979 donations from any source of 100 or more 4697 03:33:07,979 --> 03:33:10,859 and since that is covered under the fppc 4698 03:33:10,859 --> 03:33:13,739 guidelines then is it necessary for us 4699 03:33:13,739 --> 03:33:19,620 to state that if it's already covered by existing 4700 03:33:19,620 --> 03:33:22,020 legislation right 4701 03:33:22,020 --> 03:33:24,960 um so the way I look at it is kind of we 4702 03:33:24,960 --> 03:33:27,300 had the question come up in December 4703 03:33:27,300 --> 03:33:29,939 what does this mean so I think by 4704 03:33:29,939 --> 03:33:32,700 stating it you make it very clear that 4705 03:33:32,700 --> 03:33:36,300 we are requiring the source of all 4706 03:33:36,300 --> 03:33:40,560 donations to be identified and to track 4707 03:33:40,560 --> 03:33:43,319 it is implied I think in the current 4708 03:33:43,319 --> 03:33:45,359 regulations but it's not specifically 4709 03:33:45,359 --> 03:33:47,580 stated which I think is why we had the 4710 03:33:47,580 --> 03:33:49,020 question and I had to go back and look 4711 03:33:49,020 --> 03:33:51,120 at it and come back to you with this 4712 03:33:51,120 --> 03:33:53,040 discussion so 4713 03:33:53,040 --> 03:33:53,640 um 4714 03:33:53,640 --> 03:33:56,100 I guess my answer is by by adding it 4715 03:33:56,100 --> 03:33:58,560 you're just making it very clear that 4716 03:33:58,560 --> 03:34:01,920 this is the proper way to track how you 4717 03:34:01,920 --> 03:34:04,380 receive contributions 4718 03:34:04,380 --> 03:34:07,380 and my next question you may have to 4719 03:34:07,380 --> 03:34:11,300 defer to somebody else and staff but 4720 03:34:11,300 --> 03:34:14,819 when we run for office the county 4721 03:34:14,819 --> 03:34:18,540 provides instruction on how we conduct 4722 03:34:18,540 --> 03:34:20,819 our campaigns and what our regulations 4723 03:34:20,819 --> 03:34:24,239 are so will the city now assume the 4724 03:34:24,239 --> 03:34:26,520 responsibility of conducting its own 4725 03:34:26,520 --> 03:34:28,739 education campaign for new candidates 4726 03:34:28,739 --> 03:34:31,200 that address its own 4727 03:34:31,200 --> 03:34:34,380 specific guidelines and if so will that 4728 03:34:34,380 --> 03:34:36,239 be conducted by the city clerk's office 4729 03:34:36,239 --> 03:34:39,840 and what what is the impact yeah so I'm 4730 03:34:39,840 --> 03:34:41,939 happy to turn this over to staff but I 4731 03:34:41,939 --> 03:34:45,060 guess my initial thought is that it's 4732 03:34:45,060 --> 03:34:46,500 just an ordinance like any other 4733 03:34:46,500 --> 03:34:49,560 ordinance that says here's our rules 4734 03:34:49,560 --> 03:34:52,760 um I don't know that it requires much 4735 03:34:52,760 --> 03:34:55,380 education Beyond here's what the rules 4736 03:34:55,380 --> 03:34:57,540 are which is the limit the limit for 4737 03:34:57,540 --> 03:35:00,300 campaign contributions 500 dollars 4738 03:35:00,300 --> 03:35:02,700 there is no there is a Prohibition 4739 03:35:02,700 --> 03:35:04,439 against 4740 03:35:04,439 --> 03:35:06,720 um Anonymous contributions so to the 4741 03:35:06,720 --> 03:35:08,760 extent there is any education I suppose 4742 03:35:08,760 --> 03:35:11,880 it could be as simple as handing a 4743 03:35:11,880 --> 03:35:13,979 candidate the city's ordinance or 4744 03:35:13,979 --> 03:35:16,260 directing the the candidate to the 4745 03:35:16,260 --> 03:35:17,279 cities 4746 03:35:17,279 --> 03:35:18,060 um 4747 03:35:18,060 --> 03:35:21,720 the municipal code I do know that I I 4748 03:35:21,720 --> 03:35:24,600 believe that the city clerk provides a 4749 03:35:24,600 --> 03:35:28,319 handbook to candidates and we probably 4750 03:35:28,319 --> 03:35:31,859 could quite easily wrap these new 4751 03:35:31,859 --> 03:35:34,800 Provisions into that either by again 4752 03:35:34,800 --> 03:35:36,359 attaching the ordinance or just 4753 03:35:36,359 --> 03:35:39,060 summarizing the key provisions 4754 03:35:39,060 --> 03:35:41,640 so we do meet we do meet with each 4755 03:35:41,640 --> 03:35:44,520 candidate individually and explain the 4756 03:35:44,520 --> 03:35:46,979 documents and go over the forms so that 4757 03:35:46,979 --> 03:35:48,060 would be something that we would 4758 03:35:48,060 --> 03:35:50,460 definitely go over and explain with each 4759 03:35:50,460 --> 03:35:54,660 candidate that is running for office 4760 03:35:54,660 --> 03:35:58,140 and then uh finally there there is a 4761 03:35:58,140 --> 03:36:01,140 language in there that says that uh 4762 03:36:01,140 --> 03:36:05,279 individuals have the option to 4763 03:36:05,279 --> 03:36:06,300 um 4764 03:36:06,300 --> 03:36:08,819 basically seek legal action against a 4765 03:36:08,819 --> 03:36:10,620 candidate if they feel that they've 4766 03:36:10,620 --> 03:36:13,739 violated it and the city has basically 4767 03:36:13,739 --> 03:36:15,660 right a first refusal to address the 4768 03:36:15,660 --> 03:36:17,580 issue if they choose not to that an 4769 03:36:17,580 --> 03:36:19,979 individual could still sue a candidate 4770 03:36:19,979 --> 03:36:22,979 for uh non-compliance based on their 4771 03:36:22,979 --> 03:36:24,359 interpretation 4772 03:36:24,359 --> 03:36:25,680 now 4773 03:36:25,680 --> 03:36:27,960 I don't believe that there's anything 4774 03:36:27,960 --> 03:36:30,899 currently uh that the state does other 4775 03:36:30,899 --> 03:36:34,200 than impose fines for violations so this 4776 03:36:34,200 --> 03:36:36,300 pretty much makes it a crime 4777 03:36:36,300 --> 03:36:39,779 to willingly uh so somebody all somebody 4778 03:36:39,779 --> 03:36:41,640 would have to do is say that no they 4779 03:36:41,640 --> 03:36:43,260 should have known better and so they 4780 03:36:43,260 --> 03:36:45,300 willingly broke the law now they're 4781 03:36:45,300 --> 03:36:47,160 basically 4782 03:36:47,160 --> 03:36:47,880 um 4783 03:36:47,880 --> 03:36:50,640 having to having to pay an additional so 4784 03:36:50,640 --> 03:36:53,340 not just fine but of actually paying for 4785 03:36:53,340 --> 03:36:56,520 a violation of a of a city 4786 03:36:56,520 --> 03:36:57,180 um 4787 03:36:57,180 --> 03:37:00,779 ordinance and so that that also is sort 4788 03:37:00,779 --> 03:37:03,779 of above and beyond uh I believe of the 4789 03:37:03,779 --> 03:37:06,300 penalty that the state would impose 4790 03:37:06,300 --> 03:37:09,239 right so there is so 4791 03:37:09,239 --> 03:37:12,840 provide penalties similar to other code 4792 03:37:12,840 --> 03:37:15,239 violations there's the you know 4793 03:37:15,239 --> 03:37:16,800 infraction and misdemeanor 4794 03:37:16,800 --> 03:37:18,840 administrative fine those are all 4795 03:37:18,840 --> 03:37:21,600 options for the city to enforce and then 4796 03:37:21,600 --> 03:37:23,880 the additional enforcement tools do 4797 03:37:23,880 --> 03:37:25,800 include include a private right of 4798 03:37:25,800 --> 03:37:28,920 action which would be a private citizen 4799 03:37:28,920 --> 03:37:33,359 bringing a private lawsuit so not saying 4800 03:37:33,359 --> 03:37:36,180 um yeah so so it would just be a civil 4801 03:37:36,180 --> 03:37:40,319 suit it wouldn't be a Criminal suit 4802 03:37:40,319 --> 03:37:42,120 but the 4803 03:37:42,120 --> 03:37:43,920 so 4804 03:37:43,920 --> 03:37:45,600 there is something in there that says 4805 03:37:45,600 --> 03:37:49,500 that if a candidate willfully violates 4806 03:37:49,500 --> 03:37:51,779 this these Provisions then it is an 4807 03:37:51,779 --> 03:37:53,040 infraction 4808 03:37:53,040 --> 03:37:56,520 not just a final mistake 4809 03:37:56,520 --> 03:37:59,040 of the way the fppc would interpret it 4810 03:37:59,040 --> 03:38:00,420 but actually 4811 03:38:00,420 --> 03:38:02,760 you're you're breaking a rule and then 4812 03:38:02,760 --> 03:38:06,180 so you're subject to a fine because of 4813 03:38:06,180 --> 03:38:08,580 that and then on top of that private 4814 03:38:08,580 --> 03:38:11,640 citizens can also step in and um and 4815 03:38:11,640 --> 03:38:13,439 take action that is correct the way it's 4816 03:38:13,439 --> 03:38:15,600 set up that is correct 4817 03:38:15,600 --> 03:38:19,020 oh that that's it just and then I 4818 03:38:19,020 --> 03:38:20,399 certainly want to hear from the rest of 4819 03:38:20,399 --> 03:38:22,200 colleagues I thought back in December 4820 03:38:22,200 --> 03:38:24,000 13th one of the things were like the 4821 03:38:24,000 --> 03:38:25,859 state does this and we don't want to 4822 03:38:25,859 --> 03:38:28,500 exceed that right and and I think 4823 03:38:28,500 --> 03:38:30,120 council member sellers are brought up a 4824 03:38:30,120 --> 03:38:30,920 very 4825 03:38:30,920 --> 03:38:34,080 quite the state awarding imposed then 4826 03:38:34,080 --> 03:38:36,000 assembly uh person Mullen already 4827 03:38:36,000 --> 03:38:37,200 established something for the State of 4828 03:38:37,200 --> 03:38:38,040 California 4829 03:38:38,040 --> 03:38:39,899 and then jurisdictions have that ability 4830 03:38:39,899 --> 03:38:42,960 to to exceed it but not you can't have 4831 03:38:42,960 --> 03:38:45,120 less than it so then the council said 4832 03:38:45,120 --> 03:38:46,439 okay we want to go through this process 4833 03:38:46,439 --> 03:38:48,120 and I think the reason it pauses on this 4834 03:38:48,120 --> 03:38:50,880 December 13th specifically was because 4835 03:38:50,880 --> 03:38:54,060 it was a reporting mechanism of uh below 4836 03:38:54,060 --> 03:38:57,300 90 uh 99 and below and I think that's 4837 03:38:57,300 --> 03:38:58,920 what we're trying to get and not have 4838 03:38:58,920 --> 03:39:03,000 all these extras and um again due to the 4839 03:39:03,000 --> 03:39:05,460 hour some of the areas that Mr sellers 4840 03:39:05,460 --> 03:39:07,319 are just pointed out are the concerns 4841 03:39:07,319 --> 03:39:08,700 I've had and that's what I had in the 4842 03:39:08,700 --> 03:39:11,220 13. so it's still I still have those 4843 03:39:11,220 --> 03:39:13,680 concerns but anyway let me see my other 4844 03:39:13,680 --> 03:39:19,070 colleagues councilmember Medina 4845 03:39:19,080 --> 03:39:22,620 right so I think less is more 4846 03:39:22,620 --> 03:39:27,300 in this case of of keeping it to 4847 03:39:27,300 --> 03:39:29,580 um whatever the state says and the only 4848 03:39:29,580 --> 03:39:31,500 thing we're changing is the limit 4849 03:39:31,500 --> 03:39:33,779 everything else Remains the Same I think 4850 03:39:33,779 --> 03:39:36,479 is probably what I understood the 4851 03:39:36,479 --> 03:39:38,520 council wanted to do 4852 03:39:38,520 --> 03:39:40,200 um it's nice to see that there are 4853 03:39:40,200 --> 03:39:42,720 penalties but 4854 03:39:42,720 --> 03:39:47,279 um I don't mind if we kept those but 4855 03:39:47,279 --> 03:39:49,380 I'm feeling like 4856 03:39:49,380 --> 03:39:52,859 to keep it more streamlined that just 4857 03:39:52,859 --> 03:39:54,620 having the limit 4858 03:39:54,620 --> 03:39:57,300 eliminating the the tracking because 4859 03:39:57,300 --> 03:40:00,060 let's let the state do that it's up to 4860 03:40:00,060 --> 03:40:02,819 each candidate but um I think if we kind 4861 03:40:02,819 --> 03:40:07,680 of just kept it really streamlined and achieved just to make sure I 4862 03:40:07,680 --> 03:40:10,500 understand the comment I the state has 4863 03:40:10,500 --> 03:40:13,080 enforcement measures for so we're not 4864 03:40:13,080 --> 03:40:14,700 adding any additional reporting 4865 03:40:14,700 --> 03:40:16,500 requirements we're just limiting we're 4866 03:40:16,500 --> 03:40:19,020 establishing a limit and then we're also 4867 03:40:19,020 --> 03:40:22,140 providing this this ordinance also 4868 03:40:22,140 --> 03:40:25,500 provides penalties for failure to comply 4869 03:40:25,500 --> 03:40:27,660 with the ordinance similar to any other 4870 03:40:27,660 --> 03:40:30,359 code violation I don't believe the state 4871 03:40:30,359 --> 03:40:32,720 is going to enforce your 500 4872 03:40:32,720 --> 03:40:34,979 contribution limit 4873 03:40:34,979 --> 03:40:37,319 the city would need to have some sort of 4874 03:40:37,319 --> 03:40:38,100 a 4875 03:40:38,100 --> 03:40:41,040 it's it's the city's ordinance and the 4876 03:40:41,040 --> 03:40:43,380 city needs to have penalty if if it 4877 03:40:43,380 --> 03:40:45,660 wants to have teeth 4878 03:40:45,660 --> 03:40:47,640 it needs to include that in the 4879 03:40:47,640 --> 03:40:49,439 ordinance yeah had we stayed with the 4880 03:40:49,439 --> 03:40:51,239 state then the state tracks it it's 4881 03:40:51,239 --> 03:40:53,160 their responsibility because we are 4882 03:40:53,160 --> 03:40:55,140 modifying that correctly and we are 4883 03:40:55,140 --> 03:40:56,779 sitting in the limit now the stability 4884 03:40:56,779 --> 03:40:59,640 that so extra work is now being placed 4885 03:40:59,640 --> 03:41:01,500 in the city of San Bruno for that 4886 03:41:01,500 --> 03:41:03,120 ownership I've already heard my comments 4887 03:41:03,120 --> 03:41:05,700 but now we're adding a penalty and stuff 4888 03:41:05,700 --> 03:41:08,939 I don't know a policy needed um 4889 03:41:08,939 --> 03:41:12,779 so with your explanation of of guests 4890 03:41:12,779 --> 03:41:16,439 if if a candidate did write and Report 4891 03:41:16,439 --> 03:41:18,540 that they took six hundred dollars from 4892 03:41:18,540 --> 03:41:20,040 somebody then they'd be in violation 4893 03:41:20,040 --> 03:41:22,560 society when there are no consequences 4894 03:41:22,560 --> 03:41:24,960 then people just go ahead and do it and 4895 03:41:24,960 --> 03:41:27,239 so what's the point 4896 03:41:27,239 --> 03:41:29,100 of having the rule if you're not and as 4897 03:41:29,100 --> 03:41:32,040 for the amount of time tracking 4898 03:41:32,040 --> 03:41:34,580 basically when we file our our updated 4899 03:41:34,580 --> 03:41:37,920 reports to the state that gets a copy to 4900 03:41:37,920 --> 03:41:43,319 our city clerk I'm for enforcement and the city clerk can chime in here but 4901 03:41:43,319 --> 03:41:45,439 I but the ordinance does require 4902 03:41:45,439 --> 03:41:47,700 electronic filing which I think is 4903 03:41:47,700 --> 03:41:50,160 intended to Yes 4904 03:41:50,160 --> 03:41:53,040 um so back on the um 4905 03:41:53,040 --> 03:41:56,100 on the anonymous donations piece there 4906 03:41:56,100 --> 03:41:57,420 was there are discussion whether we 4907 03:41:57,420 --> 03:41:59,279 should remove that language to make 4908 03:41:59,279 --> 03:42:02,399 things simpler and I'm not in favor of 4909 03:42:02,399 --> 03:42:05,460 that well let me ask my question first 4910 03:42:05,460 --> 03:42:10,500 if we were if we were to remove the 4911 03:42:10,500 --> 03:42:11,460 um 4912 03:42:11,460 --> 03:42:14,960 the the explicit language prohibiting 4913 03:42:14,960 --> 03:42:18,120 Anonymous donations 4914 03:42:18,120 --> 03:42:20,760 of any kind 4915 03:42:20,760 --> 03:42:21,720 um 4916 03:42:21,720 --> 03:42:23,939 would that mean that someone who wanted 4917 03:42:23,939 --> 03:42:27,720 to get around the 500 contribution limit 4918 03:42:27,720 --> 03:42:30,600 and give me more than that as if I was a 4919 03:42:30,600 --> 03:42:31,920 candidate 4920 03:42:31,920 --> 03:42:36,420 um that they could simply send me 4921 03:42:36,420 --> 03:42:39,479 10 99 Anonymous donations

03:42:46,140 --> 03:42:48,540 adding the prohibit prohibition against 4926 03:42:48,540 --> 03:42:51,540 Anonymous donations was to 4927 03:42:51,540 --> 03:42:55,080 one make it clear that probably

to provide to include a 4937 03:43:20,640 --> 03:43:23,399 provision that closes a pretty 4938 03:43:23,399 --> 03:43:26,340 significant loophole 4939 03:43:26,340 --> 03:43:28,439 right 4940 03:43:28,439 --> 03:43:30,779 and this provision closes the loophole 4941 03:43:30,779 --> 03:43:32,640 in your opinion 4942 03:43:32,640 --> 03:43:35,690 correct 4943 03:43:35,700 --> 03:43:37,439

say that because the state already 4947 03:43:43,760 --> 03:43:47,220 requires us to report contributions in 4948 03:43:47,220 --> 03:43:49,560 aggregate that exceed a hundred it's not 4949 03:43:49,560 --> 03:43:53,870 a loophole it's not a loophole at all 4950 03:43:53,880 --> 03:43:55,160 um so 4951 03:43:55,160 --> 03:43:59,100 what if I were on my on my I'm sorry I'm 4952

oh he'll defer uh 4955 03:44:04,620 --> 03:44:06,500 vice mayor 4956 03:44:06,500 --> 03:44:10,080 so what would prevent a candidate from 4957 03:44:10,080 --> 03:44:11,939 listing 4958 03:44:11,939

restrictions from the state 4962 03:44:23,460 --> 03:44:25,500 from the fppc that currently prevent 4963 03:44:25,500 --> 03:44:27,239 them from doing it it's it's it's 4964 03:44:27,239 --> 03:44:30,120 already state law 4965 03:44:30,120 --> 03:44:32,220 is the so I guess that's the question 4966 03:44:32,220 --> 03:44:33,920 for the City attorney is the state law 4967 03:44:33,920 --> 03:44:38,040 you can't receive a single donation of a 4968 03:44:38,040 --> 03:44:39,540 hundred dollars a single Anonymous 4969 03:44:39,540 --> 03:44:42,359 donation of honor others or more or they

bit I could go either way just so 5017 03:46:38,160 --> 03:46:40,380 that we passed this tonight 5018 03:46:40,380 --> 03:46:41,819 um if you did get the one dollar 5019 03:46:41,819 --> 03:46:43,920 contribution you don't have to report it 5020 03:46:43,920 --> 03:46:45,779 and give the kid's name but you have to 5021 03:46:45,779 --> 03:46:49,200 keep that in mind if it did get up to 5022 03:46:49,200 --> 03:46:51,600 over a hundred so 5023 03:46:51,600 --> 03:46:54,120 to make it absolutely clear intent to 5024 03:46:54,120 --> 03:46:57,960 make the main part is the 500 limit but 5025 03:46:57,960 --> 03:47:00,060 I do think that we need we do need to 5026 03:47:00,060 --> 03:47:03,359 have consequences which is why 5027 03:47:03,359 --> 03:47:05,880 um there has to be some penalty in there 5028 03:47:05,880 --> 03:47:08,160 otherwise somebody could go ahead and 5029 03:47:08,160 --> 03:47:09,720 exceed it and then there's no penalty 5030 03:47:09,720 --> 03:47:12,420 why even half the ordinance and Mr 5031 03:47:12,420 --> 03:47:14,760 Salazar thank you and I agree with uh 5032 03:47:14,760 --> 03:47:17,040 council member Medina and that it can't 5033 03:47:17,040 --> 03:47:18,779 be comprised of the infraction that 5034 03:47:18,779 --> 03:47:20,880 there would be a corresponding fine and 5035 03:47:20,880 --> 03:47:22,439 it appears to me that we are going 5036 03:47:22,439 --> 03:47:27,960 beyond that and saying that now it's event I I really understood this 5037 03:47:27,960 --> 03:47:31,920 whole attempt to be a way to level the 5038 03:47:31,920 --> 03:47:34,140 playing field for new candidates and I 5039 03:47:34,140 --> 03:47:36,960 believe that if we're making this more 5040 03:47:36,960 --> 03:47:39,840 and you know we also just since I have 5041 03:47:39,840 --> 03:47:41,520 the mic since I have the floor you know 5042 03:47:41,520 --> 03:47:44,100 we we say in this that um you know it's 5043 03:47:44,100 --> 03:47:46,800 people into the shadows and and I I 5044 03:47:46,800 --> 03:47:49,500 think of an example that happened uh 5045 03:47:49,500 --> 03:47:52,560 recently where there was a candidate for 5046 03:47:52,560 --> 03:47:55,020 a state office tribute that not pack was 5047 03:47:55,020 --> 03:47:58,140 solely dedicated to uh promoting their 5048 03:47:58,140 --> 03:47:59,160 campaign 5049 03:47:59,160 --> 03:48:02,100 and that it didn't have limits 5050 03:48:02,100 --> 03:48:05,880 and so if we you know if if this is 5051 03:48:05,880 --> 03:48:07,560 really intended to level the playing 5052 03:48:07,560 --> 03:48:10,560 field we could potentially be uh 5053 03:48:10,560 --> 03:48:13,620 allowing people with connections to 5054 03:48:13,620 --> 03:48:15,359 powerful packs 5055 03:48:15,359 --> 03:48:17,640 to actually have a leg up over anybody 5056 03:48:17,640 --> 03:48:21,779 because now uh our friends and neighbors 5057 03:48:21,779 --> 03:48:24,060 are limited at 500 5058 03:48:24,060 --> 03:48:26,880 people who are contributing to a pack 5059 03:48:26,880 --> 03:48:29,880 they can do one one-time contributions 5060 03:48:29,880 --> 03:48:32,100 that are at the state limit and that's a 5061 03:48:32,100 --> 03:48:33,720 lot higher than anything we're allowing 5062 03:48:33,720 --> 03:48:36,420 in fact it's interesting to see that the 5063 03:48:36,420 --> 03:48:39,060 increase from last year to this year is 5064 03:48:39,060 --> 03:48:41,460 more than our overall limit for a single 5065 03:48:41,460 --> 03:48:43,140 contribution so 5066 03:48:43,140 --> 03:48:46,020 um and we're also saying our ours won't 5067 03:48:46,020 --> 03:48:47,640 automatically increase like the states 5068 03:48:47,640 --> 03:48:49,920 does so we're going to if you have a 5069 03:48:49,920 --> 03:48:52,620 concern that incumbents have a mechanism 5070 03:48:52,620 --> 03:48:56,279 for keeping new uh candidates out all 5071 03:48:56,279 --> 03:48:57,960 they have to do is freeze those dollars 5072 03:48:57,960 --> 03:48:59,819 they're already sitting in the seat so 5073 03:48:59,819 --> 03:49:01,500 they got it easy and now you're limiting 5074 03:49:01,500 --> 03:49:04,080 their ability to raise money so these 5075 03:49:04,080 --> 03:49:06,239 are unintended consequences I believe 5076 03:49:06,239 --> 03:49:09,720 I'm not I'm not opposed to the Limit 5077 03:49:09,720 --> 03:49:10,319 um 5078 03:49:10,319 --> 03:49:12,479 it it's certainly you know in my 5079 03:49:12,479 --> 03:49:14,279 experience and everyone posted that poor 5080 03:49:14,279 --> 03:49:16,439 portion of it but it does seem that we 5081 03:49:16,439 --> 03:49:18,540 are we're creating 5082 03:49:18,540 --> 03:49:21,359 some other issues that were not intended 5083 03:49:21,359 --> 03:49:24,300 and in some cases may run contrary to 5084 03:49:24,300 --> 03:49:26,840 the spirit of what we had hoped to do by 5085 03:49:26,840 --> 03:49:30,540 modernizing our Our Kind our campaign uh 5086 03:49:30,540 --> 03:49:33,060 limits 5087 03:49:33,060 --> 03:49:34,920 and I'll just say is there any members 5088 03:49:34,920 --> 03:49:38,460 of the public that wish to speak on this 5089 03:49:38,460 --> 03:49:40,739 I do not have any speaker cards and no 5090 03:49:40,739 --> 03:49:42,779 remote hands are raised thank you very 5091 03:49:42,779 --> 03:49:44,340 much so we'll bring it back to council 5092 03:49:44,340 --> 03:49:48,120 uh for any action or does it need to go 5093 03:49:48,120 --> 03:49:50,100 back or there were two options that were 5094 03:49:50,100 --> 03:49:52,560 placed uh I don't know if it's 5095 03:49:52,560 --> 03:49:54,779 I think we've got it unless it needs to 5096 03:49:54,779 --> 03:49:56,399 because of the hour place back on the 5097 03:49:56,399 --> 03:49:58,439 board but is there any direction or act 5098 03:49:58,439 --> 03:50:00,479 I guess action by Council does it mean 5099 03:50:00,479 --> 03:50:02,160 or Direction 5100 03:50:02,160 --> 03:50:04,859 you're the mayor uh yes vice mayor thank 5101 03:50:04,859 --> 03:50:05,580 you 5102 03:50:05,580 --> 03:50:08,520 I would like to make a motion to 5103 03:50:08,520 -->

--> 03:51:11,460 councilmember Salazar who's the chair I know that staff has already spent a 5131 03:51:11,460 --> 03:51:13,560 lot of time on this and I I do believe 5132 03:51:13,560 --> 03:51:18,239 it would be uh approproving it and to we 5133 03:51:18,239 --> 03:51:20,880 want to say anything I don't 5134 03:51:20,880 --> 03:51:22,560 um for it to keep on going up with 5135 03:51:22,560 --> 03:51:25,979 inflation so pumper must do address 5136 03:51:25,979 --> 03:51:28,620 um councilman salazarus can what would 5137 03:51:28,620 --> 03:51:32,100 be acceptable for you um for us to 5138 03:51:32,100 --> 03:51:34,080 structure this where there are no 5139 03:51:34,080 --> 03:51:36,120 additional paint 5140 03:51:36,120 --> 03:51:38,040 um and and if we can do that without 5141 03:51:38,040 --> 03:51:40,739 imposing additional penalties scare a 5142 03:51:40,739 --> 03:51:42,859 lot of people and having 5143 03:51:42,859 --> 03:51:45,840 individuals have that ability to sue you 5144 03:51:45,840 --> 03:51:46,979 know who's who's going to come after 5145 03:51:46,979 --> 03:51:50,040 them so 5146 03:51:50,040 --> 03:51:51,420 um 5147 03:51:51,420 --> 03:51:54,000 yeah I mean we still have to rely a 5148 03:51:54,000 --> 03:51:57,180 little bit on on people's honor why 5149 03:51:57,180 --> 03:51:58,560 don't we 5150 03:51:58,560 --> 03:52:02,760 as this is can you formulate an emotion 5151 03:52:02,760 --> 03:52:04,260 unless because I think you've placed 5152 03:52:04,260 --> 03:52:05,939 what what it is and I think that's what 5153 03:52:05,939 --> 03:52:07,200 councilmember Medina was saying okay 5154 03:52:07,200 --> 03:52:09,060 what will it take oh I'm sorry yes 5155 03:52:09,060 --> 03:52:11,340 City's Journey so mayor Medina just to 5156 03:52:11,340 --> 03:52:15,540 help move this along if if the issue is 5157 03:52:15,540 --> 03:52:18,600 this litigation component or 5158 03:52:18,600 --> 03:52:22,439 um administrative fine then it would we 5159 03:52:22,439 --> 03:52:24,779 could uh you could make a motion to 5160 03:52:24,779 --> 03:52:27,060 approve the ordinance 5161 03:52:27,060 --> 03:52:30,739 um with Section uh 5162 03:52:30,739 --> 03:52:34,200 2.33.100 deleted which is the the 5163 03:52:34,200 --> 03:52:37,439 section which provides for injunction 5164 03:52:37,439 --> 03:52:43,550 and other court actions 5165 03:52:43,560 --> 03:52:46,260 or through the mayor I just was quickly 5166 03:52:46,260 --> 03:52:47,939 going back and reading through that I 5167 03:52:47,939 --> 03:52:50,700 would be supportive of that 5168 03:52:50,700 --> 03:52:52,200 thank you in order to get to a 5169 03:52:52,200 --> 03:52:53,340 compromise 5170 03:52:53,340 --> 03:52:55,080 um thank you um and then there was 5171 03:52:55,080 --> 03:52:58,200 another item uh the uh customer sales to 5172 03:52:58,200 --> 03:53:00,420 strike the um the tracking 5173 03:53:00,420 --> 03:53:04,309 sentence 5174 03:53:04,319 --> 03:53:05,760 go ahead I'm sorry I'm okay with leaving 5175 03:53:05,760 --> 03:53:09,170 that in so um 5176 03:53:09,180 --> 03:53:14,100 yeah if if we can agree to drop the the 5177 03:53:14,100 --> 03:53:15,899 section that the City attorney just 5178 03:53:15,899 --> 03:53:17,100 referred to 5179 03:53:17,100 --> 03:53:18,479 um 5180 03:53:18,479 --> 03:53:22,849 I guess I would be supportive of of that 5181 03:53:22,859 --> 03:53:24,779 um that that to me was probably the 5182 03:53:24,779 --> 03:53:26,819 biggest concern do you want the 5183 03:53:26,819 --> 03:53:30,060 inflation 500 limit to go up 5184 03:53:30,060 --> 03:53:32,279 as with the with inflation so we don't 5185 03:53:32,279 --> 03:53:36,229 have to worry about it 20 years from now 5186 03:53:36,239 --> 03:53:37,620 okay 5187 03:53:37,620 --> 03:53:40,260 uh and so back to staff how difficult 5188 03:53:40,260 --> 03:53:43,439 would it be to Peg that to some index 5189 03:53:43,439 --> 03:53:47,929 that would make sense 5190 03:53:47,939 --> 03:53:49,439 wouldn't be difficult at all we have 5191 03:53:49,439 --> 03:53:51,840 fees annually that increase by inflation 5192 03:53:51,840 --> 03:53:55,439 and we would simply do that annually or 5193 03:53:55,439 --> 03:53:57,180 in in this case 5194 03:53:57,180 --> 03:53:59,760 um uh biannually when there's an 5195 03:53:59,760 --> 03:54:01,680 election and so I think the intent 5196 03:54:01,680 --> 03:54:03,540 increases 5197 03:54:03,540 --> 03:54:09,170 before the next election 5198 03:54:09,180 --> 03:54:12,479 okay well then I I will make a revised 5199 03:54:12,479 --> 03:54:14,460 motion then to uh 5200 03:54:14,460 --> 03:54:17,580 approve uh what's in front of us uh with 5201 03:54:17,580 --> 03:54:20,939 the exception of the section that the 5202 03:54:20,939 --> 03:54:23,160 City attorney referred to which would 5203 03:54:23,160 --> 03:54:25,920 impose those uh which would allow for 5204 03:54:25,920 --> 03:54:28,500 additional uh litigation against 5205 03:54:28,500 --> 03:54:31,260 candidates and also with the revision 5206 03:54:31,260 --> 03:54:34,140 that there would be a uh adjustment an 5207 03:54:34,140 --> 03:54:39,410 annual adjustment to the to the Limit 5208 03:54:39,420 --> 03:54:41,699 and one and and I know we'll let's see 5209 03:54:41,699 --> 03:54:43,199 if there's a second first I'll second 5210 03:54:43,199 --> 03:54:44,880 that and with that let's go to the City 5211 03:54:44,880 --> 03:54:46,800 attorney for clarification and make sure 5212 03:54:46,800 --> 03:54:48,120 we're on the same page yeah mayor Medina 5213 03:54:48,120 --> 03:54:50,699 I guess um when we get into a little 5214 03:54:50,699 --> 03:54:53,640 more Drafting and the

Abatement district and his term expires 5297 03:58:46,140 --> 03:58:48,840 in December of 2024. 5298 03:58:48,840 --> 03:58:52,560 in 2022 city manager Javon Grogan served 5299 03:58:52,560 --> 03:58:54,420 as representative on the coma Creek 5300 03:58:54,420 --> 03:58:56,880 flood control district 5301 03:58:56,880 --> 03:58:59,580 I'd like to point out that although some 5302 03:58:59,580 --> 03:59:02,340 of the bodies do not require alternates 5303 03:59:02,340 --> 03:59:04,080 we believe it would be potentially 5304 03:59:04,080 --> 03:59:06,239 beneficial to just go ahead and appoint 5305 03:59:06,239 --> 03:59:08,520 one to each body 5306 03:59:08,520 --> 03:59:10,620 and our recommendation here today is 5307 03:59:10,620 --> 03:59:12,300 that Council filled the open vacant 5308 03:59:12,300 --> 03:59:14,279 seats and confirm appointment of the 5309 03:59:14,279 --> 03:59:16,020 city council members to serve as 5310 03:59:16,020 --> 03:59:18,359 representatives

that um you see it on the 5314 03:59:25,859 --> 03:59:27,479 screen and I know with the lateness of 5315 03:59:27,479 --> 03:59:28,439 the hour 5316 03:59:28,439 --> 03:59:30,420 um so 5317 03:59:30,420 --> 03:59:31,140 um 5318 03:59:31,140 --> 03:59:32,939 I'm gonna maybe start it off then I'll 5319 03:59:32,939 --> 03:59:34,319 try to speed it up 5320 03:59:34,319 --> 03:59:36,420 um there are things uh and also by the 5321 03:59:36,420 --> 03:59:39,180 way Boscov for example vice mayor 5322 03:59:39,180 --> 03:59:41,399 Hamilton was already reappointed and 5323 03:59:41,399 --> 03:59:43,260 they do it in a different fashion and I 5324 03:59:43,260 --> 03:59:46,880 believe they do not uh require or allow 5325 03:59:46,880 --> 03:59:50,880 alternates to that case excuse me so 5326 03:59:50,880 --> 03:59:52,859 with that there's the airport Community 5327 03:59:52,859 --> 03:59:54,660 Roundtable 5328 03:59:54,660 --> 03:59:58,199 um uh there is an opening has desired to 5329 03:59:58,199 --> 04:00:01,020 have it asked if another colleague would 5330 04:00:01,020 --> 04:00:04,199 be willing to take that are there any 5331 04:00:04,199 --> 04:00:08,160 um suggestions

Community Roundtable is a 5335 04:00:16,560 --> 04:00:18,060 very interesting and I think it will be 5336 04:00:18,060 --> 04:00:21,300 a very challenging committee but I will 5337 04:00:21,300 --> 04:00:24,859 step up and volunteer to be a primary 5338 04:00:24,859 --> 04:00:27,180 this is interesting because when I used 5339 04:00:27,180 --> 04:00:30,960 to work at the building counter we have 5340 04:00:30,960 --> 04:00:33,359 very limited information to give to the 5341 04:00:33,359 --> 04:00:36,180 residents regarding noise mitigation 5342 04:00:36,180 --> 04:00:39,239 with the airport

don't know 5349 04:00:54,000 --> 04:00:55,859 if I need to ask council member Medina 5350 04:00:55,859 --> 04:00:57,720 or Hamilton if you would disagree with 5351 04:00:57,720 --> 04:00:59,760 that

managers do it but we want to be 5376 04:01:51,420 --> 04:01:54,239 valuable to his time the next one down 5377 04:01:54,239 --> 04:01:56,040 so we can come back the next time is 5378 04:01:56,040 -->

04:02:09,779 --> 04:02:12,239 an alternate for um 5385 04:02:12,239 --> 04:02:14,880 council member Alvarez on the league of 5386 04:02:14,880 --> 04:02:17,640 California City's Peninsula division I'd 5387 04:02:17,640 --> 04:02:20,660 like the primary to be 5388 04:02:20,660 --> 04:02:23,580 vice mayor Hamilton there is not a 5389 04:02:23,580 --> 04:02:26,040 requirement to have an alternate though 5390 04:02:26,040 --> 04:02:29,220 others are welcome to attend if people 5391 04:02:29,220 --> 04:02:31,620 were already listed on there because 5392 04:02:31,620 --> 04:02:33,479 some of them

it's totally going to revise it so I'm 5728 04:16:45,540 --> 04:16:46,859 looking over at the 5729 04:16:46,859 --> 04:16:48,479 um for our 5730 04:16:48,479 --> 04:16:51,899 staff to kind of chime in

--> 04:17:03,720 having a little side conversation here I 5735 04:17:03,720 --> 04:17:04,800 think we were we would need 5736 04:17:04,800 --> 04:17:07,560 clarification and specifics to bring 5737 04:17:07,560 --> 04:17:10,859 back a revised ordinance uh what I in 5738 04:17:10,859 --> 04:17:12,479 lieu of doing that I think what we can 5739 04:17:12,479 --> 04:17:15,479 do is agenda is a discussion amongst the 5740 04:17:15,479 --> 04:17:18,720 city council if so moved by the majority 5741 04:17:18,720 --> 04:17:20,460 of council here tonight and based on 5742 04:17:20,460 --> 04:17:22,680 that discussion 5743 04:17:22,680 --> 04:17:24,359 um I think Council should provide clear 5744 04:17:24,359 --> 04:17:26,640 Direction on revisions to the ordinance 5745 04:17:26,640 --> 04:17:30,300 and on regulations if uh if so desired 5746 04:17:30,300 --> 04:17:32,760 and then we would then draft those have 5747 04:17:32,760 --> 04:17:35,699 them reviewed of course by staff and our 5748 04:17:35,699 --> 04:17:37,859 City attorney and then schedule it at a 5749 04:17:37,859 --> 04:17:42,239 subsequent council meeting for adoption 5750 04:17:42,239 --> 04:17:45,420 um or first reading right and and given 5751 04:17:45,420 --> 04:17:48,300 that uh there is a process uh that's 5752 04:17:48,300 --> 04:17:50,220 already put in place and that I don't 5753 04:17:50,220 --> 04:17:54,359 want to run afoul of any anything that's happening I did want to expedite 5754 04:17:54,359 --> 04:17:57,120 and so I can provide specifics of what I 5755 04:17:57,120 --> 04:17:58,620 would be requesting if that would 5756 04:17:58,620 --> 04:18:00,960 facilitate bringing back an ordinance 5757 04:18:00,960 --> 04:18:03,120 that could then be discussed modified at 5758 04:18:03,120 --> 04:18:04,920 a meeting rather than having an open 5759 04:18:04,920 --> 04:18:07,500 discussion that would then lead to the 5760 04:18:07,500 --> 04:18:09,000 presentation of an ordinance that would 5761 04:18:09,000 --> 04:18:10,620 then have to come back for two readings 5762 04:18:10,620 --> 04:18:13,080 so very specifically I could tell you 5763 04:18:13,080 --> 04:18:16,439 that my intent is to remove downtown and 5764 04:18:16,439 --> 04:18:22,680 tan Fran from the uh the zoning that's approved currently and it is also 5765 04:18:22,680 --> 04:18:24,779 my intent to reduce the number of 5766 04:18:24,779 --> 04:18:29,340 businesses from the four down to two uh 5767 04:18:29,340 --> 04:18:31,260 where one of them would be required to 5768 04:18:31,260 --> 04:18:34,500 be a delivery service and one could be a 5769 04:18:34,500 --> 04:18:37,340 potential retail or they could both be 5770 04:18:37,340 --> 04:18:40,380 delivery services and 5771 04:18:40,380 --> 04:18:41,160 um 5772 04:18:41,160 --> 04:18:43,800 and I I would like I would I would limit 5773 04:18:43,800 --> 04:18:47,330 it to that 5774 04:18:47,340 --> 04:18:48,540 I see manager is that what you're 5775 04:18:48,540 --> 04:18:53,030 looking for 5776 04:18:53,040 --> 04:18:55,140 I think that if Council support here 5777 04:18:55,140 --> 04:18:57,840 tonight uh to bring that back and we 5778 04:18:57,840 --> 04:18:59,880 would uh look to schedule that 5779 04:18:59,880 --> 04:19:02,340 discussion with that revised ordinance 5780 04:19:02,340 --> 04:19:04,500 that I believe has to occur at a regular 5781 04:19:04,500 --> 04:19:07,800 meeting if there is a direction from the 5782 04:19:07,800 --> 04:19:10,739 city council to do that expeditiously we 5783 04:19:10,739 --> 04:19:14,279 would calendar that for the January 24th 5784 04:19:14,279 --> 04:19:15,840 meeting which is your next regular 5785 04:19:15,840 --> 04:19:18,020 meeting 5786 04:19:18,020 --> 04:19:21,840 and I do think that we would need to do 5787 04:19:21,840 --> 04:19:24,720 um notifications to very I I believe the 5788 04:19:24,720 --> 04:19:26,580 interested parties list 5789 04:19:26,580 --> 04:19:29,000 has an interested party list for our 5790 04:19:29,000 --> 04:19:31,920 cannabis regulations I think um it would 5791 04:19:31,920 --> 04:19:33,960 be an incumbent Upon Us inappropriate to 5792 04:19:33,960 --> 04:19:36,960 send a notification uh to all of those 5793 04:19:36,960 --> 04:19:38,640 individuals on that interested party 5794 04:19:38,640 --> 04:19:43,439 list and anyone that we know has pulled 5795 04:19:43,439 --> 04:19:46,500 an application or asked questions of uh 5796 04:19:46,500 --> 04:19:49,380 staff in in the intention to develop an 5797 04:19:49,380 --> 04:19:51,359 application and so we would provide 5798 04:19:51,359 --> 04:19:54,000 those uh notice notifications that this 5799 04:19:54,000 --> 04:19:55,620 would be discussed at the January does 5800 04:19:55,620 --> 04:19:58,560 and reduce the number of allowable 5801 04:19:58,560 --> 04:20:02,340 permits at the city could Grant to two 5802 04:20:02,340 --> 04:20:05,100 one being delivery and the other being 5803 04:20:05,100 --> 04:20:08,580 either delivery or retail or and or both 5804 04:20:08,580 --> 04:20:14,110 correct correct 5805 04:20:14,120 --> 04:20:16,979 I was just going to clarify that the 5806 04:20:16,979 --> 04:20:19,199 Apple commercial cannabis operator 5807 04:20:19,199 --> 04:20:22,920 permits application deadline has been 5808 04:20:22,920 --> 04:20:25,680 set for next Tuesday 5809 04:20:25,680 --> 04:20:27,540 so we would know by 5810 04:20:27,540 --> 04:20:29,699 before the 24th who had submitted 5811 04:20:29,699 --> 04:20:31,560 applications and we could also obviously 5812 04:20:31,560 --> 04:20:33,960 inform that group anyone who had submit 5813 04:20:33,960 --> 04:20:36,600 uh the permit and the information did 5814 04:20:36,600 --> 04:20:39,180 make it very clear that the city council 5815 04:20:39,180 --> 04:20:43,020 still reserves the right to award up to 5816 04:20:43,020 --> 04:20:45,840 four or less than four and so should you 5817 04:20:45,840 --> 04:20:49,800 make that change uh know that we we've 5818 04:20:49,800 --> 04:20:51,479 talked we believe sufficient notice was 5819 04:20:51,479 --> 04:20:54,540 provided that the city council has 5820 04:20:54,540 --> 04:20:57,180 discretion now on how many permits you 5821 04:20:57,180 --> 04:20:59,689 would issue 5822 04:20:59,699 --> 04:21:02,040 uh councilman Medina 5823 04:21:02,040 --> 04:21:03,779 yeah I'm a little concerned about the 5824 04:21:03,779 --> 04:21:05,399 detail that we're going this is this is 5825 04:21:05,399 --> 04:21:08,220 Council Commons and it should be we're 5826 04:21:08,220 --> 04:21:10,560 getting way too specific that it's not 5827 04:21:10,560 --> 04:21:12,899 agenda so I believe the way it's 5828 04:21:12,899 --> 04:21:16,080 supposed to work is you say that you're 5829 04:21:16,080 --> 04:21:18,300 going to have a discussion of the item 5830 04:21:18,300 --> 04:21:22,020 like councilman councilwoman Alvarez 5831 04:21:22,020 --> 04:21:24,960 just did but I think the specifics of 5832 04:21:24,960 --> 04:21:27,359 what you're trying to do in in a 5833 04:21:27,359 --> 04:21:29,760 non-agend diet the City attorney it's 5834 04:21:29,760 --> 04:21:31,560 this isn't an agendized topic and we're 5835 04:21:31,560 --> 04:21:33,720 getting into the specifics of the 5836 04:21:33,720 --> 04:21:35,160 changes 5837 04:21:35,160 --> 04:21:37,739 and I don't know if that I'm questioning 5838 04:21:37,739 --> 04:21:40,199 if the if that's appropriate so there's 5839 04:21:40,199 --> 04:21:43,199 a question on the process which has been 5840 04:21:43,199 --> 04:21:46,560 established already but uh City attorney 5841 04:21:46,560 --> 04:21:48,420 mayor Medina and council member Medina 5842 04:21:48,420 --> 04:21:49,319 the 5843 04:21:49,319 --> 04:21:50,100 um 5844 04:21:50,100 --> 04:21:51,420 the city council's not actually taking 5845 04:21:51,420 --> 04:21:53,520 action on these items what it's doing is 5846 04:21:53,520 --> 04:21:55,199 giving direction to staff to come back 5847 04:21:55,199 --> 04:21:56,040 with 5848 04:21:56,040 --> 04:21:59,460 an agendized item that you will consider 5849 04:21:59,460 --> 04:22:02,220 these changes to the 5850 04:22:02,220 --> 04:22:04,680 um to the Cannabis ordinance at that 5851 04:22:04,680 --> 04:22:07,020 point you will have the gender will 5852 04:22:07,020 --> 04:22:10,439 provide you're just discussing 5853 04:22:10,439 --> 04:22:11,699 um 5854 04:22:11,699 --> 04:22:14,640 you're discussing revisions and 5855 04:22:14,640 --> 04:22:17,580 directing staff to come back with uh 5856 04:22:17,580 --> 04:22:19,620 with proposed changes that you will 5857 04:22:19,620 --> 04:22:23,220 consider on a properly agendized meeting 5858 04:22:23,220 --> 04:22:25,859 sure but the revisions are pretty 5859 04:22:25,859 --> 04:22:28,969 detailed and 5860 04:22:28,979 --> 04:22:31,080 um I'm not going to support this 5861 04:22:31,080 --> 04:22:33,120 I think I think to have the study 5862 04:22:33,120 --> 04:22:36,779 session to talk about it but to to 5863 04:22:36,779 --> 04:22:38,939 manipulate it so that you can get it 5864 04:22:38,939 --> 04:22:41,880 changed for another meeting I think I 5865 04:22:41,880 --> 04:22:43,500 think that's beyond 5866 04:22:43,500 --> 04:22:46,910 the intent that 5867 04:22:46,920 --> 04:22:49,920 well I would only say that uh 5868 04:22:49,920 --> 04:22:54,000 in in uh in the past Council comments 5869 04:22:54,000 --> 04:22:56,279 were not agendized and we were 5870 04:22:56,279 --> 04:22:58,560 prohibited from having open discussion 5871 04:22:58,560 --> 04:23:00,840 and we would we were limited to 5872 04:23:00,840 --> 04:23:02,819 providing direction to staff to bring 5873 04:23:02,819 --> 04:23:05,220 something back but that changed that 5874 04:23:05,220 --> 04:23:08,580 changed when uh we decided that we would 5875 04:23:08,580 --> 04:23:11,100 agendize and basically spell out the 5876 04:23:11,100 --> 04:23:13,500 action that we intended to take and so 5877 04:23:13,500 --> 04:23:16,199 this this was agendized I think I was 5878 04:23:16,199 --> 04:23:18,840 very clear in uh the topics that I 5879 04:23:18,840 --> 04:23:21,420 intended to discuss and I I don't think 5880 04:23:21,420 --> 04:23:23,460 it's inappropriate but I I am hoping 5881 04:23:23,460 --> 04:23:25,380 that at least two of my colleagues will 5882 04:23:25,380 --> 04:23:30,050 support uh letting this move forward 5883 04:23:30,060 --> 04:23:34,189 city manager 5884 04:23:34,199 --> 04:23:35,899 thank thank you 5885 04:23:35,899 --> 04:23:40,620 mayor Medina just on this topic I do for 5886 04:23:40,620 --> 04:23:42,960 me feel that the threshold line is we 5887 04:23:42,960 --> 04:23:46,080 are not tonight discussing the merits of 5888 04:23:46,080 --> 04:23:49,880 the changes that council member Salazar 5889 04:23:49,880 --> 04:23:52,560 is asking to be discussed at a later 5890 04:23:52,560 --> 04:23:53,699 meeting 5891 04:23:53,699 --> 04:23:57,540 but Council and providing Clarity to 5892 04:23:57,540 --> 04:24:01,380 staff on what his proposal is for that 5893 04:24:01,380 --> 04:24:02,880 meeting to be 5894 04:24:02,880 --> 04:24:06,000 and should there be majority concurrents 5895 04:24:06,000 --> 04:24:08,100 I think staff would take that direction 5896 04:24:08,100 --> 04:24:12,000 and say we have had a council member 5897 04:24:12,000 --> 04:24:15,000 agenda is a topic that they would like 5898 04:24:15,000 --> 04:24:17,279 to have their colleagues discuss they 5899 04:24:17,279 --> 04:24:19,859 have clearly articulated what that topic 5900 04:24:19,859 --> 04:24:21,060 is 5901 04:24:21,060 --> 04:24:23,340 in a majority of council has provided 5902 04:24:23,340 --> 04:24:26,640 direction to staff to agendize that that 5903 04:24:26,640 --> 04:24:29,040 discussion and so we're not discussing 5904 04:24:29,040 --> 04:24:31,080 the merits we're clearly just getting I 5905 04:24:31,080 --> 04:24:34,140 think a clear understanding of what the 5906 04:24:34,140 --> 04:24:38,580 council member would like discussed 5907 04:24:38,580 --> 04:24:40,500 or we're working on now 5908 04:24:40,500 --> 04:24:43,739 whether it's storm related all the other 5909 04:24:43,739 --> 04:24:46,080 stuff that we're dealing with we're 5910 04:24:46,080 --> 04:24:48,660 going to tell staff stop that and do 5911 04:24:48,660 --> 04:24:51,710 this 5912 04:24:51,720 --> 04:24:54,239 no that's okay you can say yes what yeah 5913 04:24:54,239 --> 04:24:55,800 and what else want to make sure I 5914 04:24:55,800 --> 04:24:57,660 understand number of ordinances and the 5915 04:24:57,660 --> 04:24:59,399 resolutions that were put in place I'm 5916 04:24:59,399 --> 04:25:01,080 not asking that everything be redone I'm 5917 04:25:01,080 --> 04:25:02,699 not asking staff to do any additional 5918 04:25:02,699 --> 04:25:04,319 work I'm asking for very specific 5919 04:25:04,319 --> 04:25:07,080 changes to one or more ordinances if it 5920 04:25:07,080 --> 04:25:09,120 crosses over into two ordinances I was 5921 04:25:09,120 --> 04:25:10,739 very specific about what I requested 5922 04:25:10,739 --> 04:25:12,660 this shouldn't take a lot of Staff time 5923 04:25:12,660 --> 04:25:15,660 this is I I was very specific and it's 5924 04:25:15,660 --> 04:25:18,479 very detailed so if if that you if you 5925 04:25:18,479 --> 04:25:20,760 think that's going to derail other 5926 04:25:20,760 --> 04:25:22,859 um or we try to do that we give 5927 04:25:22,859 --> 04:25:24,660 direction from this body if there is a 5928 04:25:24,660 --> 04:25:27,779 majority on what to do which this once 5929 04:25:27,779 --> 04:25:29,340 this policy went into effect this 5930 04:25:29,340 --> 04:25:32,060 Council has done that whether it's 5931 04:25:32,060 --> 04:25:35,279 504132 to say this is now a priority we 5932 04:25:35,279 --> 04:25:37,140 want to bring this forward so but I I 5933 04:25:37,140 --> 04:25:39,540 see the the city manager go ahead 5934 04:25:39,540 --> 04:25:42,920 foreign 5935 04:25:42,930 --> 04:25:49,790 [Music] 5936 04:25:49,800 --> 04:25:52,560 I'm not reading the the language and 5937 04:25:52,560 --> 04:25:55,979 your policies and procedures but we were 5938 04:25:55,979 --> 04:25:57,120 very 5939 04:25:57,120 --> 04:25:57,739 um 5940 04:25:57,739 --> 04:26:01,439 clearing those discussions that if a 5941 04:26:01,439 --> 04:26:06,720 item is requested to be brought back 5942 04:26:06,720 --> 04:26:10,620 urgently immediately uh we staff asked 5943 04:26:10,620 --> 04:26:12,180 that it that the council essentially 5944 04:26:12,180 --> 04:26:14,040 make a determination that this is a very 5945 04:26:14,040 --> 04:26:15,000 important 5946 04:26:15,000 --> 04:26:17,279 item and we would like staff to 5947 04:26:17,279 --> 04:26:20,520 prioritize it respecting that the 5948 04:26:20,520 --> 04:26:22,560 manager or the City attorney has the 5949 04:26:22,560 --> 04:26:24,960 ability to say hey I don't think that we 5950 04:26:24,960 --> 04:26:27,000 can accomplish that or it will be 5951 04:26:27,000 --> 04:26:29,819 council member Salazar articulate 5952 04:26:29,819 --> 04:26:33,840 is because the applications are 5953 04:26:33,840 --> 04:26:34,580 um 5954 04:26:34,580 --> 04:26:38,220 processes open uh he feels that this is 5955 04:26:38,220 --> 04:26:40,859 a urgent thing that he is requesting his 5956 04:26:40,859 --> 04:26:43,140 support from his colleagues to direct 5957 04:26:43,140 --> 04:26:47,159 staff to agenda's soon 5958 04:26:47,159 --> 04:26:48,060 um 5959 04:26:48,060 --> 04:26:51,540 I do believe that because it's it's 5960 04:26:51,540 --> 04:26:53,699 amending ordinances that we've already 5961 04:26:53,699 --> 04:26:56,760 drafted that with clear direction we can 5962 04:26:56,760 --> 04:26:57,720 accomplish 5963 04:26:57,720 --> 04:27:00,239 caveat beam 5964 04:27:00,239 --> 04:27:02,520 if a major storm hits and we divert a 5965 04:27:02,520 --> 04:27:04,800 bunch of attention right I I reserve the 5966 04:27:04,800 --> 04:27:06,420 right to send counsel and email saying 5967 04:27:06,420 --> 04:27:09,239 you know I X Y and Z has happened I 5968 04:27:09,239 --> 04:27:10,500 don't think we'll be able to do that by 5969 04:27:10,500 --> 04:27:13,140 the 24th we will do that 5970 04:27:13,140 --> 04:27:13,800 um 5971 04:27:13,800 --> 04:27:15,659 at another meeting 5972 04:27:15,659 --> 04:27:20,279 I think with this item what also 5973 04:27:20,279 --> 04:27:21,420 um 5974 04:27:21,420 --> 04:27:24,180 we are talking a change to an ordinance 5975 04:27:24,180 --> 04:27:28,859 that will require two readings that will 5976 04:27:28,859 --> 04:27:31,319 um we need to sort of plan out all of 5977 04:27:31,319 --> 04:27:32,239 that 5978 04:27:32,239 --> 04:27:35,340 but if counsel is saying that this is a 5979 04:27:35,340 --> 04:27:37,020 important item that you would like 5980 04:27:37,020 --> 04:27:38,580 discuss soon 5981 04:27:38,580 --> 04:27:40,819 I do believe that we can agendize that 5982 04:27:40,819 --> 04:27:43,500 for the 5983 04:27:43,500 --> 04:27:49,020 um January 24th date now if 5984 04:27:49,020 --> 04:27:51,720 looking at the the schedule we we may 5985 04:27:51,720 --> 04:27:52,920 want to say 5986 04:27:52,920 --> 04:27:54,180 um we're going to push some of the 5987 04:27:54,180 --> 04:27:56,040 regular business sort of up earlier or 5988 04:27:56,040 --> 04:27:58,020 have a special meeting we still need to 5989 04:27:58,020 --> 04:28:04,500 do that but but so to discuss it now we certainly need to do notifications to 5990 04:28:04,500 --> 04:28:06,380 the interested party list 5991 04:28:06,380 --> 04:28:08,699 and provide those 5992 04:28:08,699 --> 04:28:11,779 um uh people that are currently actively 5993 04:28:11,779 --> 04:28:14,819 submitting uh permits with that notice 5994 04:28:14,819 --> 04:28:17,880 um and so we will expeditiously do that 5995 04:28:17,880 --> 04:28:20,939 frankly uh beginning tomorrow morning if 5996 04:28:20,939 --> 04:28:22,680 so directed by the by the city council 5997 04:28:22,680 --> 04:28:24,000 of 5998 04:28:24,000 --> 04:28:27,720 changing things around right that's my point 5999 04:28:27,720 --> 04:28:29,279 so 6000 04:28:29,279 --> 04:28:32,580 um I still think I'll just wait so thank 6001 04:28:32,580 --> 04:28:34,260 you for that explanation that 6002 04:28:34,260 --> 04:28:37,920 hopefully it doesn't storm too much and that it doesn't mean modifications 6003 04:28:37,920 --> 04:28:39,359 can't be made at that time is that 6004 04:28:39,359 --> 04:28:45,229 correct 6005 04:28:45,239 --> 04:28:46,739 mayor Medina 6006 04:28:46,739 --> 04:28:48,960 we would have an ordinance in front of 6007

difficult to modify draft 6010 04:28:55,080 --> 04:28:57,540 an ordinance from the dice but 6011 04:28:57,540 --> 04:29:00,239 we could make changes 6012 04:29:00,239 --> 04:29:02,040 okay thank you

way 6021 04:29:16,380 --> 04:29:17,520 in 6022 04:29:17,520 --> 04:29:20,580 um so so my question would be that since 6023 04:29:20,580 --> 04:29:22,140 the since the 6024 04:29:22,140 --> 04:29:24,840 uh permit filing period is open with the 6025 04:29:24,840 --> 04:29:32,359 deadline of next week if permit applications are received for 6026 04:29:32,359 --> 04:29:34,399 potential 6027 04:29:34,399 --> 04:29:38,819 businesses that are in the in the areas 6028 04:29:38,819 --> 04:29:41,100 that are being proposed to be removed by 6029 04:29:41,100 --> 04:29:44,159 ordinance what happens then I mean we 6030 04:29:44,159 --> 04:29:46,439 would we 6031 04:29:46,439 --> 04:29:48,779 what happens then 6032 04:29:48,779 --> 04:29:50,220 so we've already got it we've already 6033 04:29:50,220 --> 04:29:52,560 got it submitted uh 6034 04:29:52,560 --> 04:29:53,340 um 6035 04:29:53,340 --> 04:29:56,100 permit application for an area that's 6036 04:29:56,100 --> 04:29:58,439 currently 6037 04:29:58,439 --> 04:30:00,779 that by our rules are currently is is 6038 04:30:00,779 --> 04:30:03,180 currently fine 6039 04:30:03,180 --> 04:30:06,239 we would then go back to them and say oh 6040 04:30:06,239 --> 04:30:10,969 sorry we're changing the rules 6041 04:30:10,979 --> 04:30:12,199 foreign 6042 04:30:12,199 --> 04:30:16,439 manager sir uh thank you uh council 6043 04:30:16,439 --> 04:30:19,859 member uh Hamilton uh certainly 6044 04:30:19,859 --> 04:30:23,340 there's the possibility that 6045 04:30:23,340 --> 04:30:25,080 um 6046 04:30:25,080 --> 04:30:27,960 we may receive an application by the due 6047 04:30:27,960 --> 04:30:30,840 date of next Tuesday for 6048 04:30:30,840 --> 04:30:34,460 um either downtown or 6049 04:30:34,460 --> 04:30:38,279 tanfran and the majority of the council 6050 04:30:38,279 --> 04:30:42,000 may decide uh to revise the ordinance to 6051 04:30:42,000 --> 04:30:43,560 exempt those areas 6052 04:30:43,560 --> 04:30:45,359 that would mean that we would need to 6053 04:30:45,359 --> 04:30:48,359 look at our process and likely 6054 04:30:48,359 --> 04:30:50,819 um I think we could obviously assume 6055 04:30:50,819 --> 04:30:52,620 that someone that applied downtown will 6056 04:30:52,620 --> 04:30:55,560 say hey I didn't have the opportunity to 6057 04:30:55,560 --> 04:30:57,899 look at other areas because I thought 6058 04:30:57,899 --> 04:30:58,979 that 6059 04:30:58,979 --> 04:31:00,899 um this area that I was applying for 6060 04:31:00,899 --> 04:31:03,840 would be allowed and so we would need to 6061 04:31:03,840 --> 04:31:05,460 consider that I don't want to sort of 6062 04:31:05,460 --> 04:31:09,060 proffer on the Fly what we would do but 6063 04:31:09,060 --> 04:31:13,080 I but I I hearing the council member 6064 04:31:13,080 --> 04:31:15,960 Salazar's request actually honestly for 6065 04:31:15,960 --> 04:31:17,939 the first time tonight 6066 04:31:17,939 --> 04:31:19,500 um I think we need to think that through 6067 04:31:19,500 --> 04:31:22,979 and how we would modify the process 6068 04:31:22,979 --> 04:31:25,560 what I would say and I I hesitate to say 6069 04:31:25,560 --> 04:31:26,699 this that 6070 04:31:26,699 --> 04:31:28,859 if it's supported by a majority of the 6071 04:31:28,859 --> 04:31:31,800 council to look at this maybe that is 6072 04:31:31,800 --> 04:31:33,420 one of the reasons why having this 6073 04:31:33,420 --> 04:31:35,220 conversation sooner rather than later 6074 04:31:35,220 --> 04:31:36,840 may be a good thing 6075 04:31:36,840 --> 04:31:38,939 because we have people 6076 04:31:38,939 --> 04:31:43,140 uh applying for a permit based on a set 6077 04:31:43,140 --> 04:31:46,140 of criteria that the city council 6078 04:31:46,140 --> 04:31:48,180 established 6079 04:31:48,180 --> 04:31:51,319 if the city council is thinking about 6080 04:31:51,319 --> 04:31:53,520 changing that criteria I don't know that 6081 04:31:53,520 --> 04:31:55,500 to be the case but if 6082 04:31:55,500 --> 04:31:58,319 um we should probably do that sooner 6083 04:31:58,319 --> 04:31:59,720 rather than later 6084 04:31:59,720 --> 04:32:02,460 and so 6085 04:32:02,460 --> 04:32:04,979 if a majority of the council supports 6086 04:32:04,979 --> 04:32:08,100 staff agendizing that and we would come 6087 04:32:08,100 --> 04:32:09,779 back and have that discussion and again 6088 04:32:09,779 --> 04:32:14,279 I think we would need to notify the 6089 04:32:14,279 --> 04:32:16,199 um interested party list or anyone that 6090 04:32:16,199 --> 04:32:18,300 has picked up an application or called 6091 04:32:18,300 --> 04:32:20,819 in with a question to say hey I I'm 6092 04:32:20,819 --> 04:32:22,319 looking at 6093 04:32:22,319 --> 04:32:25,439 um your application packet that you 6094 04:32:25,439 --> 04:32:28,080 submitted and so we would certainly do 6095 04:32:28,080 --> 04:32:30,659 that if directed 6096 04:32:30,659 --> 04:32:32,760 okay and and we do have a member of the 6097 04:32:32,760 --> 04:32:35,220 public so I had a question but I want to 6098 04:32:35,220 --> 04:32:38,760 uh please uh until as the hours late 6099 04:32:38,760 --> 04:32:45,359 we have one remote hand raise Courtney I will be bringing you in 6100 04:32:45,359 --> 04:32:47,279 Courtney you may begin whenever you're 6101 04:32:47,279 --> 04:32:48,180 ready 6102 04:32:48,180 --> 04:32:50,580 hi yes can you all hear me yes we can 6103 04:32:50,580 --> 04:32:53,939 hear you all right thank you so much so 6104 04:32:53,939 --> 04:32:55,979 um my name is Courtney Caron and I am a 6105 04:32:55,979 --> 04:33:00,239 cannabis attorney who has specialized in 6106 04:33:00,239 --> 04:33:02,220 um the merit-based application process 6107 04:33:02,220 --> 04:33:05,459 for the last several years and what I'm 6108 04:33:05,459 --> 04:33:07,740 hearing right now is is problematic to 6109 04:33:07,740 --> 04:33:10,500 me excuse me and also causing me a 6110 04:33:10,500 --> 04:33:12,779 little bit of stress because 6111 04:33:12,779 --> 04:33:15,660 individuals who apply for these 6112 04:33:15,660 --> 04:33:17,879 merit-based application processes spend 6113 04:33:17,879 --> 04:33:20,299 a great deal of time and money preparing 6114 04:33:20,299 --> 04:33:23,879 applications and part of of that process 6115 04:33:23,879 --> 04:33:25,439 that you've implemented is having a 6116 04:33:25,439 --> 04:33:28,080 property that is zoned correctly and 6117 04:33:28,080 --> 04:33:33,719 just the entitlement of of getting that properly zoned property 6118 04:33:33,719 --> 04:33:36,420 um you know can cost you know thousands 6119 04:33:36,420 --> 04:33:38,160 upon thousands of dollars during this 6120 04:33:38,160 --> 04:33:40,320 holding period of preparing the 6121 04:33:40,320 --> 04:33:42,779 application and so if the city is 6122 04:33:42,779 --> 04:33:45,660 actually considering the city council 6123 04:33:45,660 --> 04:33:46,920 members are actually considering 6124 04:33:46,920 --> 04:33:49,799 modifying the existing ordinance that 6125 04:33:49,799 --> 04:33:52,080 has been used to create this merit-based 6126 04:33:52,080 --> 04:33:54,600 process then frankly the merit-based 6127 04:33:54,600 --> 04:33:57,359 process needs to be paused so that 6128 04:33:57,359 --> 04:33:59,520 nobody is spending you know additional 6129 04:33:59,520 --> 04:34:01,740 funds to prepare an application and 6130 04:34:01,740 --> 04:34:03,959 submit it only to find out that the 6131 04:34:03,959 --> 04:34:05,580 property that they have located in the 6132 04:34:05,580 --> 04:34:07,020 application they have prepared is 6133 04:34:07,020 --> 04:34:08,520 actually no longer going to be valid 6134 04:34:08,520 --> 04:34:11,820 under an amended ordinance so 6135 04:34:11,820 --> 04:34:13,619 um I really don't think it would be 6136 04:34:13,619 --> 04:34:15,299 advantageous for the city to accept 6137 04:34:15,299 --> 04:34:17,879 applications on the 17th if the city 6138 04:34:17,879 --> 04:34:19,980 council does intend to review that 6139 04:34:19,980 --> 04:34:22,080 ordinance because it is extremely unfair 6140 04:34:22,080 --> 04:34:25,439 to all of the applicants who may fall in 6141 04:34:25,439 --> 04:34:27,420 one of those those zones with a property 6142 04:34:27,420 --> 04:34:30,660 that is is going to be amended and 6143 04:34:30,660 --> 04:34:32,219 further I think you're going to find 6144 04:34:32,219 --> 04:34:34,799 yourself in quite a bit of litigation if 6145 04:34:34,799 --> 04:34:37,080 you do accept applications and then 6146 04:34:37,080 --> 04:34:39,480 modify an ordinance that excludes people 6147 04:34:39,480 --> 04:34:42,719 and then give those people you know an 6148 04:34:42,719 --> 04:34:44,760 additional timeline to find a new 6149 04:34:44,760 --> 04:34:45,920 property 6150 04:34:45,920 --> 04:34:48,119 I believe you're going to have you know 6151 04:34:48,119 --> 04:34:50,039 some real real issues with that just 6152 04:34:50,039 --> 04:34:51,959 based off my experience with this 6153 04:34:51,959 --> 04:34:54,000 merit-based application process in 6154 04:34:54,000 --> 04:34:55,920 pretty much every city in the state of 6155 04:34:55,920 --> 04:34:57,600 California that has had a merit-based 6156 04:34:57,600 --> 04:35:00,240 application process so I would just 6157 04:35:00,240 --> 04:35:03,240 caution accepting applications if the 6158 04:35:03,240 --> 04:35:06,180 intent is actually to revise the 6159 04:35:06,180 --> 04:35:10,500 ordinance and would strongly urge that that the city manager's office put 6160 04:35:10,500 --> 04:35:13,920 a pause on this entire process until the 6161 04:35:13,920 --> 04:35:15,840 city council has made a determination as 6162 04:35:15,840 --> 04:35:17,580 to whether or not they're actually going 6163 04:35:17,580 --> 04:35:20,219 to amend the ordinance that might affect 6164 04:35:20,219 --> 04:35:21,660 those who have already prepared 6165 04:35:21,660 --> 04:35:23,160 applications 6166 04:35:23,160 --> 04:35:24,719 um since since the finish line is just 6167 04:35:24,719 --> 04:35:26,160 around the corner here thank you so much 6168 04:35:26,160 --> 04:35:27,779 for your time 6169 04:35:27,779 --> 04:35:30,119 thank you for staying on this late and 6170 04:35:30,119 --> 04:35:31,859 thank you for your comments 6171 04:35:31,859 --> 04:35:35,219 City management sure so what I think is 6172 04:35:35,219 --> 04:35:37,141 important is that we not 6173 04:35:37,141 --> 04:35:38,279 um 6174 04:35:38,279 --> 04:35:40,080 try to make every decision that we may 6175 04:35:40,080 --> 04:35:42,539 need to make tonight I think what we're 6176 04:35:42,539 --> 04:35:44,879 hearing is 6177 04:35:44,879 --> 04:35:48,900 um based on an agendas Council Comet a 6178 04:35:48,900 --> 04:35:52,260 member of the city council asking their 6179 04:35:52,260 --> 04:35:55,980 colleagues to provide direction to staff 6180 04:35:55,980 --> 04:35:59,219 to to schedule an item if a majority of 6181 04:35:59,219 --> 04:36:04,039 counsel accepts that staff will do fully 6182 04:36:04,039 --> 04:36:06,959 perform that Duty I think that there are 6183 04:36:06,959 --> 04:36:08,400 other decisions that need to be made 6184 04:36:08,400 --> 04:36:11,219 want us notifying everyone 6185 04:36:11,219 --> 04:36:12,900 um certainly the manager's office has 6186 04:36:12,900 --> 04:36:15,359 the ability to extend the deadline or 6187 04:36:15,359 --> 04:36:18,240 pause applications I think based on what 6188 04:36:18,240 --> 04:36:22,141 council directs we will certainly take 6189 04:36:22,141 --> 04:36:24,119 the appropriate action and and look into 6190 04:36:24,119 --> 04:36:26,820 looking to what is the appropriate next 6191 04:36:26,820 --> 04:36:28,500 steps but I don't think we need to 6192 04:36:28,500 --> 04:36:30,600 process through those right now I think 6193 04:36:30,600 --> 04:36:33,359 what is before us is a member of the 6194 04:36:33,359 --> 04:36:35,279 city council asking their colleagues to 6195 04:36:35,279 --> 04:36:37,500 agenda as an item I think we address 6196 04:36:37,500 --> 04:36:40,379 that and then we let staff process 6197 04:36:40,379 --> 04:36:42,000 through all the decisions that need to 6198 04:36:42,000 --> 04:36:45,299 be made to prepare for your policy 6199 04:36:45,299 --> 04:36:46,920 discussion 6200 04:36:46,920 --> 04:36:48,900 thank you city manager is
