GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN. WONDERFUL HAIR STYLE VICE MAYOR HIGGINS. >> THANK YOU. >> YOU ARE WELCOME. WANTED TO GIVE YOU A BRIEF UPDATE IN MY NECK OF THE WOODS OF BART FIRST UP GRATED MY TITLE FROM BOARD OF DIRECTOR TO VICE PRESIDENT SO FOR THE FIRST TIME IN WELL EVER AS FAR AS I KNOW, CONTRA COSTA COUNTY HAS A PRESIDENT FROM RICHMOND IN OUR COUNTY AND A VICE PRESIDENT THAT IS FROM ANTIOC IN THE COUNTY A LITTLE UNUSUAL AND GOOD TO FOCUS ON US IN THIS NECK OF THEED WOODS THANK YOU APPRECIATE THAT. WITH THAT I WANTED TO TALK TO YOU BRIEFLY ABOUT WHAT IS GOING ON IN OUR NECK OF THE WOODS, AS BART ENTERS IT'S 6TH DECADES WORTH OF SERVICE BACK INTO THE EARLY 70S, WE REALLY WANT TO FOCUS ON BEING EFFICIENT RELIABLE FORM OF TRANSPORTATION FOR ALL OF OUR COMMUTERS FAMILIES FRIENDS AND REALLY WANT TO BE PROUD MEMBERS OF THE COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT REGIONAL ECONOMY REDUCE TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT. WE'RE TRYING TO WORK HARD TO MEET THOSE GOALS IN THE NEXT FEW YEARS WITH THAT I WILL GIVE YOU A LITTLE LESSON HERE ABOUT LET'S SEE IF THIS WORKS. THERE WE GO. SO, IF YOU DON'T KNOW WE GOT 700 PLUS RAIL CARS 48 STATIONS 12 OF WHICH ARE RIGHT HERE IN CONTRA COSTA COUNTY 122 MILES OF TRACK ON TIME PERFORMANCE 90% IT CAN BE BETTER WE WILL WORK ON THAT. I WILL TAKE ABOUT THAT IN A FEW MOMENTS THE BART ANTIOC LINE THE YELLOW LINE IS OUR BUSIEST LINE IN THE SYSTEM. OUR BUSIEST STATIONS ARE EMBARCADERO AND MONTGOMERY. YOU CAN SEE THERE IS PRETTY GOOD STRAIGHT LINE BETWEEN THOSE TWO POINTS. IF YOU DON'T KNOW OUR FINANCING IS DRIVEN BY THE RIDER. 79.6% OF OUR OPERATING REVENUE COMES DIRECTLY FROM FAIRS REVENUE FROM PARKING. SO, WHEN WE SEE A DIP IN RIDERSHIP IT IMPACTS US AND OUR ABILITY TO ADD ADDITIONAL SERVICES LIKE MORE OFFICERS DISCOUNT FAIRS, AMBASSADOR PROGRAM. SO, FOR US WE NEED TO BE SENSITIVE TO OUR RIDERSHIP AND OUR NUMBERS. SO, PEAK HOUR TRANSBAY RIDERSHIP F YOU DON'T KNOW WE MOVE TWICE AS MANY PEOPLE ACROSS THE BAY AS THE BAY BRIDGE DOES IN AN AVERAGE HOUR 14,000 VEHICLES WE MOVE 27,000 RIDERS MOST TRIPS ARE WEEKDAY RIDES ALSO EVENING COMMUTE COMING HOME. WE ARE REALLY LOOKING TO TRY TO IMPROVE OUR TRANSBAY CAPACITY AND FIND WAYS WE CAN MOVE PEOPLE FASTER THROUGH THE REGION SO PART OF THAT IS FOR US TO LOOK AT OPPORTUNITI IMPROVE OUR CORE CAPACITY. SO, RIGHT NOW WE HAVE A PROJECT THAT IS IN THE FTA'S CAPITAL INVESTMENT GRANT PROGRAM WE ARE LOOKING TO TRY TO IMPROVE OUR COR CAPACITY UP TO 40% THERE IS FOUR COMPONENT TOSS THAT APPROACH. ONE OF THEM IS OUR NEW TRAIN CONTROLLED MODERNIZATION I HAVE A SLIDE ON THAT IN MOMENT I WILL GIVE YOU DETAILED. THE ADDITION OF 306 RAIL CARS THE HAYWARD MAINTENANCE COMPLEX WHEN YOU ADD ADDITIONAL CARS YOU NEED A PLACE TO PARK THOSE CARS EVERY EVENING EVEN BART NEEDS MORE PARKING SO THE HAYWARD MAINTENANCE COMPLEX WILL HELP US PROVIDE THAT AND MODERNIZATION AS WELL. AS WELL WE ARE POW BY ELECTRICITY SYSTEM WE NEED FIVE ADDITIONAL TRACTION POWER SUBSTATIONS THROUGHOUT OUR SYSTEM TO SUPPORT THIS EXTRA CAPACITY ALSO TO SUPPORT THE EXPANSION WE WILL BE SEEING IN THE AREA IF BARIASA AND SAN JOSE AND SANTA CLARA COUNTY. THE TRAIN CONTROL HOD MODERNIZATION RIGHT NOW WE CAN MOVE 24 TRAINS AN HOUR THROUGH THE TUBE THAT IS BECAUSE WE HAVE TECHNOLOGY THAT IS ORIGINAL TO THE SYSTEM. ALMOST 50 YEARS OLD AND IT REALLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IN FACT AT LAST WEEK'S BOARD MEETING WE TOOK THE FIRST AND MOST SIGNIFICANT MOTION AND ADOPTION WE COULD WHICH WAS TO AUTHORIZE CONTRACT WITH PROVIDER TO DEVELOP A BRAND NEW TRAIN CONTROL SYSTEM THAT WILL ALLOW US TO GO TO 30 TRAINS PER HOUR THROUGH THE TUBE. THAT EXCESS CAPACITY AS WELL AS EXPANDING OUR TRAIN SIZE FROM 8 OR 9 UP TO TEN-CAR TRAIN ALLOWS YOU TO BUILD THA EXTRA CAPACITY IN. AND MOVE THE CARS MORE FREQUENTLY WE'RE TRYING TO MOVE IN THAT DIRECTION WITH THIS PARTICULAR PROJ FLEET OF THE FUTURE. YOU HAVE PROBABLY SEEN A FEW OF THESE CARS I'M LUCKY ENOUGH TO CATCH THEM MOST MORNINGINGS WHEN I COMMUTE TO OAKLAND THE TIMING OF MY TRIP IS SUCH I GET ONE OF THESE MAYBE THERE IS COINCIDENCE TO THAT. WE WILL SEE. WE ARE TRYING TO MOVE FROM CURRENT FLEET WHICH IS 669 CARS UP TO -- 1,200 WE NEED EXTRA CAPACITY AND STORAGE AND BE ABLE TO RUN THROUGHOUT THE SYSTEM AT THE END OF DECEMBER WE HAD 140 CARS ON-SITE THAT WERE ACTUALLY TESTING. WE HAVE HAD 120 CERTIFIED BY THE STATE SO WE'RE ABLE TO PUT THOSE INT REVENUE CURRENTLY WE HAVE EIGHT TRAINS I SERVICE THAT ARE RUNNING ON ALL FIVE LIN SO WE ARE ALWAYS HOPEFULLY GOING TO SEE A TRAIN AS THE MONTHS PROGRESS BECAUSE AS YOU ARE PROBABLY AWARE, WE OPENED THE BOMBARDIA FACILITY IN PITTSBURG DOWN THE STREET, AND SHIFTED THE CONSTRUCTION OF OUR BART CARS FLEET OF THE FUTURE FRO UPSTATE NEW YORK TO RIGHT IN OUR BACKYARD THAT ALLOWS US TO BE GOOD GREEN NEIGHBORS WE CAN TAKE CARS QUICKLY INTO THE SYSTEM IF THEY NEED TO HAVE UPGRADE OR MODIFICATION THERE IS LOCATION RIGHT HERE ALMOST RIGHT OFF THE LINE WHERE WE CAN BRING THEM LOCALLY AND HAVE THEM LOOKED AT FOR DIFFERENT MODIFICATIONS OR SOFTWARE UPGRADES WILL BE NECESSARY. AGAIN, WE'RE HOPING BY FEBRUARY OF THIS YEAR WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO RECEIVE ENOUGH OF THE NEW CARS TO GO TO ALL TEN-CAR TRAINS GOING THROUGH THE TUBE DURING OR PEAK COMMUTE HOURS. BART TO ANTIAK [INAUDIBLE] OPENING IN 2018. AVERAGE 180,000 A MONTH. WE ARE OVER 3 MILLION RIDERS IN THAT SYSTEM IS A GREAT SUCCESS. IN FACT IT'S BEEN SU A GREAT SUCCESS THAT WE NEED PARKING. AND AS YOU ARE AWARE THAT STATION WAS DESIGNED A BIT UNDER SIZED. THERE IS LES THAN 1,000 SPACES TO START WITH. YOU PROBABLY SAW THE STORIES WHERE PEOPLE ARE PARKING ON STREETS, ROADS, HILLS WHE EVER THEY CAN GET THEIR CAR I'M HAPPY TO ANNOUNCE AT OUR NOVEMBER MEETING WE APPROVED AWARDED A CONTRACT TO THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE LAST LOT THAT WE HAVE THERE. THE PROJECT CAME IN UNDER BUDGET AND 2 OR 3 MILLION UNDER BUDGET EXPECTED, 16 MILLION. IT WAS 14 MILLION. WE GROUND BREAK IN MARCH. HOPE TO HAVE THE LOT IN SERVICE FINGERS CROSSED WEATHER PERMITTING BY THE END OF THE CALENDAR YEAR. I'M HOPEFUL TO SEE ALMOST A DOUBLING IN THE NUMBER OF PARKING SPACES WE HAVE AVAILABLE. WANTED TO BRIEFLY TOUCH ON A PROGRAM THAT IS PART OF OUR RR BOND MEASURE FUNDS. WE GOT $25 MILLION EARMARKED FOR A SAFE ROUTES TO BART PROGRAM. WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO IS WORK WITH OUR NEIGHBORS OUR CITIES OUR COUNTIES TO TRY HELP IMPLEMENT ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION CAPITAL PROJECTS OFF BY PROPERTY BUT ENCOURAGE FOLKS TO TAKE PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AND TO TAKE BART SO WE WANT TOO GET FOLKS OUT OF THEIR CARS GET THEM ACTUALLY INTO THE TRAINS WE WANT PROJECTS HOPEFULLY ARE SIMPLY TO IMPLEMENT. READY TO GO. WE WANT PARTNERSHIP WITH OUR NEIGHBORS THE PARTNERSHIP IS SET UP. TO DO ONE PROJECT PER STATION OR PER REGION AREA. OUR GOAL IS TO LEVERAGE OUR POSITION IN THE COMMUNITY SO WE CAN GET FOLKS INTO THE TRANSIT WORLD. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO PROJECT BROUGHT TO THE BOARD FOR POTENTI ADOPTION NEXT MONTH AND WE HOPE IN QUARTER ONE WE WILL START ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS AND IN QUARTER TWO WE WILL COLLECT THEM TO MAKE DECISIONS ABOUT GIVING GRANT MONEY TO NEIGHBORS IN OUR CITIES TO TRY TO ENCOURAGE FOLKS TO TAKE PUBLIC TRANSIT AND FIND THEIR WAY TO BAR A MORE EFFICIENT WAY. BE ON THE LOOK OUT BRYAN AND I WILL BE COMMUNICATING I WILL KEEP HIM IN THE LOOP AS SOON AS I HEAR ABOUT THE LAUNCH OF THE PROGRAM. CLOSING IN ON OUR LAST TOPIC THE QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUES. OBVIOUSLY, THAT'S A BIGGISH EWE FOR ALL OF US WHETHER IT'S ON BART IN OU CITIES, WORLDWIDE THERE IS ISSUES REGARDING QUALITY OF LIFE PART OF THE WA BART IS APPROACHING IT IS TO LOOK AT OUR STAFFING FOR IMPLICIT WE DID A STUDY 200 OFFICERS WAS 100 SHORT. WE NEEDED 300 OFFICERS BASED ON THE GEOGRAPHIC LAYOUT OF OUR PARTICULAR SERVICE AREA. SO, THE FORMER GM GRACE C. COMMITTED TO ADDING 19 OFFICERS A YEAR FOR FIVE YEARS GET US UP TO THE EXTRA 100 OFFICERS. SO THIS PARTICULAR BUDGET CYCLE WE'RE IN TH MIDDLE OF WE HAVE 19 POLICE OFFICERS ADDED. FOUR FAIR INSPECTORS THOSE ARE TH FOLKS THAT GO ON TRAINS ONE END TO THE OTHER. THEY TAKE EVERYBODY'S TICKET AND MAKE SURE THEY ARE A FAIR PAYING RIDER WE PUT $2 MILLION TOWARDS HOMELESSNESS IN OUR SYSTEM TRYING TO FIND WAYS WE CAN ADDRESS IT. IN OUR PART OF THE WORLD IF WILL. IN ADDITION TO ABOUT 2-AND-A-HALF MILLION DOLLARS ON STATION HARDENING. ON OF THE THINGS I'M ADVOCATING FOR AT OUR STATION AGENT LIST STATIONS WHICH ARE TH TWO EBART STATIONS IS TO PUT IN THE FAIR GATES WE WANT TO PUT IN PILOT FAIR GATES CURB THE FARE EVASION WE'RE RUNNING INTO IT. AND THE AMBASSADOR PROGRAM WE APPROVED AT THE LAST BOARD MEETING IT SHOULD GO IN PLACE IN FEBRUARY. IN ANOTHER MONTH WE WILL BE ADDING TO THE 6TH MONTH PILOT WE WILL HAVE TEN PERSONNEL THAT WILL BE RIDING EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS AND RIDING THE END OF DAY SHIFT. ESSENTIALLY THEY'RE IN THERE FROM 2:00 PM TO MIDNIGHT WHERE THEY WILL BE RIDING TRAINS. I ADVOCATEED THAT THE LAS ROUND OF TRAINS ACTUALLY HAVE AMBASSADORED TO THE END OF THE LINE I'M HOPING THEY'RE ABLE TO ACOOP ACCOMPLISH THAT. WE WILL MOVE THAT PROGRAM IN IN JU A FEW WEEKS IN ADDITION TO THAT, IN 2019 WE HIRED 59 OFFICERS. THAT IS MORE THAN THE LAST THREE YEARS COMBINED SO WE ARE COMMITTED TO BRINGING FOLKS ON BOARD AND TO MAKING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT SO PEOPLE FEEL COMFORTABLE BRIDGING THEIR FAMILIES WHACK ON THE TRAINS THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE TRAVELLING LATE AT NIGHT. WI THAT, I WOULD LIKE TO SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH. I'M SORRY I MISSED ONE SLIDE OUR CORE PROGRAM I WANTED TO MENTION THIS. LAST YEAR WE STARTED THE CORE PROGRAM OUR COORDINATED OUT REACH REFERRAL AND ENGAGEMENT AND A GROUP OF INDIVIDUALS THAT GO TO THE STATION AT THE END OF LIN THE END OOF THE EVENING TO HELP PLACE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE HOUSING UNSTABLE IF SOMEONE NEEDS A WARMING CENTER OR A PLACE TO STAY FOR THE EVENING IN A SHELT WE ACTUALLY HELP COORDINATE THAT. IF THE NEED TO GET SOMEWHERE LIKE OFTEN IS THE CASE THEY DIDN'T IN ANTIAC THEY WERE IN SAN FRANCISCO. WE ARE COORDINATING BACK TO WHAT THEY CALL HOME. OUR GOAL REALLY IS TO EXPAND THIS PROGRAM WHICH WE HAVE DONE BUT TO KEEP LOOKING AT WAY -- EXPAND IT WE HAVE SAN FRANCISCO COUNTY WITH A VARIATION OF THIS PROGRAM. YOU KNOW BETTER THAN I WE NEED TO FOCUS ON HOUSING FOR THESE INDIVIDUALS WITH TH I WILL SAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AND APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND LETTING ME COME AND TALK TO YOU THIS EVENING. >> ANY QUESTIONS? >> HI THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL OF THE INFORMATION. I APPRECIATE THAT. IF YOU COULD TOUCH A LITTLE BIT MORE ON THE GRANT PROGRAM OPPORTUNITIES I KNOW NOT IN IT'S FINAL STAGES YET DID I HEAR YOU SAY ONLY ONE PROJECT PER REGION AREA. >> IT'S REALLY PER STATION RIGHT. >> IS THIS GRANT PROGRAM I WOULD ASSUME THE CITY'S IN WHICH THERE ARE BART STATIONS WOULD TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER SURROUNDING CITIES? >> NOT NECESSARILY IF OAKLY WERE TO PUT TOGETHER A MORE APPEALING PACKAGE OR IDEA THAT MIGHT ACTUALLY MAKE SENSE. POTENTIALLY THAT MIGHT BE SELECTED OF ANTIAK IT'S WHAT MAKES MORE SENSE FOR THE COMMUNITY AS A WHOLE AND PROVIDES GREATER GOOD IT WOULD BE GREAT IF EVERY CITY CAN DO IT. WE KNOW THAT IS THE NO THE CASE. I REMEMBER LOOKING AT THE BEST PROGRAMS NOT NECESSARILY WHAT CITY IS SUBMITTED IT. >> THANK YOU. >> YOU ARE WELCOME. >> THANK YOU MARK. I HAVE THE BART APP ON MY PHONE. I WONDERED HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE USING THAT? IS IT EFFECTIVE? >> IT'S EFFECTIVE FOR BIO HAZARDS STARTING AT THE END OF THE MONTH TO PAY FOR PARKING WE SEE EXCLUSION OF USE OVER THAT. NO MORE HANGING THE EASY RIDER PLACARD IN YOUR CAR. YOU WILL BE ABLE TO NOTATE YOUR STYLE NUMBER AND PAY VIA THE APP I DON'T VIRTUE EXACT NUMBERS I CAN LOOK AT WHAT THE DOWNLOADS ARE FOR THAT AND LET YOU KNOW. >> NO BIG DEAL I DO USE IT. IT'S HARD BECAUSE WHEN I RIDE THE EVENING AND WEEKENDS THEY DO ENTERTAINMENT WITH BOOM BOXES AND PASSING THE HAT AND GET OFF AT THE NEXT STATION THEN IS THERE A LOT OF TRYING TO GET YOUR PHONE SO I TRY TO HAVE MY PHONE OUT BECAUSE THERE IS A LOT OF THAT AMBASSADOR PROGRAM HELPS. >> IT WAS 59% OF OUR ROBBERIES HAD TO DO WITH PHONE THEFTS WE HIRED A PERMANENT CHIEF OF IMPLICIT LAST WEEK. ED ALVEREZ DEPUTY CHEAP HAS EARNED THE POSITION. ONE OF THE FIRST THING IS TO BRING 12 OFFICERS IN DEDICATED TO EVENINGS AND WEEKENDS THAT IS ONE OF MY CONCERNS, WHEN I RAN FOR OFFICE. I DON'T FEEL THERE'S A LEVEL OF SAFEY IN THE EVENINGS WE ARE DEFINITELY TRYING. >> THANK YOU. >> YOU ARE WELCOME. >> I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS FOR I KNOW YOU ARE FACING OUT OTHER PAPER CARDS HOPEFULLY GOING TO CLIPPER. >> CORRECT. >> I WOULD LIKE CLIPPER PHASED OUT AND USE YOUR BART APP TO PAY FOR YOUR PHONE APP TO PAY FOR ON AND OFF AND WHATNOT INSTEAD OF ME CARRYING THE CLIPPER A STEP UP FROM THE BART CARD FROM THE PAPER CARDS. UM...THE CARDS THAT YOU ARE GETTING I THOUGHT THEY WERE GOING TO REPLACE SOME OF THE OLDER CARDS IS IT A PROCESS YOU REPLACE THE OLDER CARS? THEY HAVE BEEN THERE SINCE. >> 48 YEARS. >> A LONG TIME. WE HAVE NICE CARDS ON THEM AND THEY ARE NICER THAN THE CURRENT OLDER CARS IS THERE A PROCESS ADDING NEW ONES AND REPLACING OLDER. >> BECAUSE OF REPLACING STORAGE WE HAD TO GO OUT WITH RFP LAST SUMMER TO SEE THE VALUE ON OUR OLD CARS BECAUSE WE RECEIVED FEDERAL FUNDS WE HAD TO FIND OUT IS THEIR VALUE WE GOT A TOTAL OF 0 OFFERS TO BUY A BART CAR THEY ARE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE OR FREE AT THIS POINT. AS WE'RE BRINGING NEW CARS IN WE ARE STRIPPING AND RECYCLING THE OLDER CARS AND WE ARE TARGETING THE CARS WITH THE WORST MAINTENANCE HISTORY. VEHICLES A LOT MORE ARE THE FIRST TO GO. SO, OUR GOAL IS TO REALLY -- THANK YOU. ANTIOCH WE'RE TRYING TO DO ONE FOR ONE TRADE OUT. WE CAN ONLY HOLD SO MANY WE ARE RECYCLING OR TRADING OFF ROAD VEHICLES THE FIRST WENT TO RECYCLING CENTER NOVEMBER I THINK IS THE FIRST ONE. SO, WE WILL BE DOING THE SWAP OUT. AS THE STATE CERTIFIES AND MAKES THEM REVENUE CAPABLE THEN WE CAN PUT THE NEW TRAINS INTO SERVICE WE HAD A COUPLE OF HICK UPS ALONG THE WAY PRIMARILY SOFTWARE OR WIRING HARNESS ISSUES WE WANTED TO WAIT TO RESOLVE THOSE BEFORE MOVING FORWARD. AND ACCEPTING MORE CARS WE ARE ON THIS PATH OF DELIVERING A COUPLE OF CARS EVERY MONTH OUT OF PITTSBURG. >> I CAN UNDERSTAND THE REASON YOU DON'T HAVE MANY BUYERS OF THE OLD BART CARS. IT'S A UNIQUE SYSTEM ONE OF A KIND FIRST CONCEIVED IN THE 60S AND THE WORLD WENT IN DIFFERENT WAYS WE ARE STUCK WITH THE SYSTEM THAT WAS DESIGNED IN THE 60S AND EARLY 70S AND DOESN'T MOVE ON WITH THE WORLD. TRI DELTA HAS LAND FOR PARK AND RIDE IS IN THE DESIGN PHASE FOR PARK AND RIDE IN OAKLEY MAIN STREET INTERSECTION HOPEFULLY DONE IN A YEAR WAS GOING TO REACH OUT TO THE DIRECTOR BUT IS ALSO ON VACATION ALSO I DIDN'T GET AN UPDATE. THOSE ARE THE THINGS ARE YOU LOOKING FOR WITH THE GRANT PROGRAM? >> YES EXACTLY. >> EVEN THOUGH WE ALLOCATED THE PROGRAM YOU WOULDN'T MIND IF IF WE THROUGH IN A FEW BUCKS. >> PERSONALLY WOULDN'T MIND AT ALL. >> I DO NOW THAT YOU MENTIONED TRYING TO GET RID OF THE OLD BART TRAINS THERE MAY BE CITIES LOOKING TO USE THOSE AS SMALL HOMES. YOU MAY TAP INTO SOME OF THE BIGGER CITIES THAT HAVE THAT SPACE OR HAVE THAT MONEY TO REUSE THOSE AS SMALL HOMES FOR SOME OF THE HOMELESS POPULATION. >> WE RECEIVED A NUMBER OF IDEAS A LOT OF FIRST RESPONDERS IMPLICIT AND FIRE WOULD LIKE THE VEHICLE TO USE TO PRACTICE ON. MOBILE HOMELESS SHELTERS IS ONE OF THE IDEAS SOMEONE SAID USE IT AS AN ARTIFICIAL REEF AS LONG AS IT'S SAFE TO DO SO. AB AND B'S WE HAD A VARIETY WE WILL DELIVERING ONE TO THE POTENTIAL RAILWAY MUSEUM. IF YOU NEED ONE IN YOUR BACKYARD, WE ARE HAPPY. >> I'M GLAD TO HEAR THERE IS A LOT OF POSSIBLE REUSES. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRESENTATION. >> THANK YOU.

ANTIOCH DOES IT FOR FREE BUT THE COST FOR THEIRS IS REALLY BIG WE HAVE NOT YET DECIDED WE WANT A TIERED-TYPE SYSTEM FOR DECEASED VETERANS ONLY AT ONE LEVEL LIFE VETERANS ACTIVE DUTY MEMBERS AND WHATNOT.

THE DELTA BICYCLE PED DOLLARSS CLUB WOULD LIKE A TRAIL FROM THE BIG BREAK REGIONAL STORE LINE CENTER THROUGH THE KLEIN VINEYARD A VERY SMALL PIECE OF PROPERTY THEN THROUGH THIS GIGANTIC WONDERFUL LARGE SPACE OVER TO THE ANTIOCH REGIONAL SHORELINE AT HIGHWAY 160 AND THE RIVER THIS WOULD BE EXTENSION OF AN EXISTING PAVED REGIONAL TRAIL THAT GOES THE BIG BREAK REGIONAL TRAIL JOINS THE MARSH CREEK TRAIL TO BRENTWOOD TO CLAYTON.

I'M ITEM 3.71 OF THE MAJOR CONCERNS I HAVE AND OTHERS IS SECTION 7 WHERE THE REFERENDUM ANY INITIATIVE IS NOT ALLOWED THAT THERE CAN BE NO WAIVER BY THIS AGREEMENT THAT THIS WILL DUOFORWARD REGARDLESS HOW THE PEOPLE WILL PETITION THEIR GOVERNMENT. I THINK THAT IS WITHOUT COUNSEL MAN COUNCILMEMBER ALAURA WE TALKED ABOUT THAT WITH MR. MONTGOMERY'S CONTRACT WAS UP EVERYBODY DOES IT IT'S OKAY WE GO ALONG IF YOU READ THE COMMENTS LEADERSHIP IS FOLLOWING THE ETHICS AND FOLLOWING THE CONSTITUTIONAL. COUNCILMEMBER POPE YOU ARE SWORN TO UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES THAT'S A 24/7 COMMITMENT NOT JUST COME UP HERE AND WAIVE IT AWAY AND VICE MAYOR HIGGINS YOU ARE SWORN NOT TO DO ANY HARM I THINK YOU COULD CONSIDER ARE YOU DOG GOOD FOR THE COMMUNITIES OR HARMING THE CONSTITUENTS BY NOT ALLOWING THEM TO PETITION THEIR GOVERNMENT 8.2 THAT'S A LOT OF MONEY 3M MILLION DOLLARS CONDITIONED ON A BUILDING PERMIT CONDITIONAL TO THE TRAFFIC IS STILL CONDITIONAL THEN WE HAVE 8.3 WHICH IS $850,000 IN MONEY FOR THE COMMUNITY TO USE AS THEY SEE FIT HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT END UP DOWNTOWN. ANY WAY, $850,000 TO BEGIN IT'S CONDITION ON THE BUILDING PERMIT. INPUTING TOGETHER THE DESIGN AND UPHOLDING THE BUILDING CODES BECOMES DIFFICULT IF THE DEVELOPER SUDDENLY SAYS WE DON'T WANT TO DO THAT WE WILL TAKE OUR $3 MILLION AND WALK AWAY SOMETIMES THAT FEEDS TO HAPPEN. >> ANY OTHER COMMENTS? MR. FULLER STAY WHERE YOU ARE AT. YOU HAVE COMMENTS ON 3.11. >> YES.

IN ADDITION I HAVE BEEN TOLD IF I DON'T KNOW FOR SURE ASK SO THE FISCAL IMPACT SAYS WE WILL GET REVENUE YES WE WILL GET THAT. I'M INTERESTED IN THE NET GAIN OVER FIVE YEARS BY RECLASSIFYING THE LEASE AND HOW MUCH IT WOULD BE OR IS IT A NET LOSS OVER FIVE YEARS WITH THE NEGOTIATION OF THE LEASE HOW MUCH WILL THAT BE OR IS THIS STATIC AND REMAIN THE SAME? I HAVE ASKED FOR THOSE FIGURES. >> THANK YOU. ANY OTHER COMMENTS ON 3.11? >> I MIGHT JUST ADD MAYOR I WANTED TO STATE FOR THE ERECORD MR. FULLER AND I HAVE PROBABLY A DOZEN CONVERSATION I HAVE INVITED HIM TO ASK ANY QUESTION TRY TO GAIN THE INFORMATION TO MAKE SURE HE UNDERSTOOD WELL WHAT IS BEING SAID HE FAILED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THAT OPPORTUNITY I THINK HE JUST ASKED THEM NOW I DON'T THINK I UNDERSTAND UNDERSTOOD THEM. RELATIVE TO THE BUILDING PERMISSION THAT MIGHT BE CONFUSED BY THOSE VIEWING IF THIS DEVELOPER SEEKS A BUILDING PERMIT THEY MUST PAY THE FEES IF THEY DON'T SEEK A BUILDING PERMIT THEY DON'T PAY THE FEE FEES I KNOW COUNSEL UNDERSTANDS THAT THERE MAY BE VIEWERS UNDERSTAND. I'M NOT SURE WHY MR. FULLER DOESN'T TAKE ADVANTAGE TO SPEAK TO STAFF FOR ANSWERS HAD E'S SEEKING RATHER THAN MAKE COMMENTS THAT ARE INACCURATE AND MISLEADING. >> THANK YOU. IS THERE A MOTION FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE CALENDAR. >> I MOVE THE REMAINDER OF THE CALENDAR. >> I WILL SECOND. >> FIRST AND SECOND.

TRAINING PEOPLE TO BE PILOTS OF THESE UAS DEVICES AT THIS POINT HERE WE HAVE A STREAMLINED PROGRAM TO GO THROUGH AND TAKE SOMEBODY TO GET THEM THAT INFORMATION WE DO IT IN A VERY EFFICIENT MANNER USING ONLINE RESOURCE WE SEND THEM OFF TO THE FAA CERTIFICATION CENTER THEY TAKE A PILOTS LICENSE TO FLY THESE DEVICES THEN THE IDEA IS WE BRING THEM BACK AND DO PILOT TRAINING AT IRON HOUSE SANITARY DISTRICT. THE DISTRICT IS NICE ENOUGH TO LET US BORROW THE LAND TO DO TRAINING OUT THERE. WE HAVE MEMBER OF THE CITY STAFF THAT IS ACTUALLY A LONG TIME DRONE PILOT COME OUT AND HELPED OUR OFFICERS TO DEVELOP SKILLS ASSOCIATED WITH THESE ITEMS THE IDEA BEHIND IT IS WE HAVE GONE THROUGH AND SPENT A LOT OF TIME AND EFFORT GETTING OFFICERS TRAINED ON HOW TO USE THESE DEVICES AND AT THE SAME TIME USE FAA REQUIREMENTS AND REGULATIONS WHEN WE CAN USE THESE ITEMS AND WHEN WE CAN'T. THE IDEA BEHIND THIS IS WE WANT TO BE COMPLIANT WITH MUNICIPAL CODE SECTIONS FAA RULES AND POLICIES AND PROCEEDIERS TO PROTECT A LOT OF THE CONCERNS PEOPLE HAVE HAD ASSOCIATED WITH THESE KINDS OF DEVICES THAT HAVE COME UP IN PREVIOUS PRESENTATIONS IN IMPLICIT DEPARTMENT USE OF THE DEVICE ITSELF. ONE OF THE THINGS THAT THE MISUNDERSTANDING THAT GO ALONG WITH THESE IS WHEN WE CAN USE THEM AND HOW WE CAN USE THEM. THE IDEA IS THIS THE FAA COMES UP WITH BASIC IDEAS HOW WE USE THESE DEVICES ONE OF THOSE IS THEY MUST BE USED WITHIN SITE. OPERATORS THEMSELVES HAS TO SEE THE DEVICE AS IT'S FLYING THE UNITS WE'RE DOG HAVE A FIVE-MILE RANGE FROM THE INDIVIDUAL CONTROLLING THEM. THERE'S A SIGNIFICANCE DISTANCE THEY CAN FLY. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THE PILOTS CAN SEE WHAT IS GOING ON WITH OUR DEVICES WE HAVE BOTH THE PILOT AND OBSERVER WHEN WE HAVE ONE OF THESE DEVICES IN THE AIR ITSELF THEY HAVE TO FLY UNDER 400 FEET IT'S THAT IDEA OF CONTROLLED AIR SPACE THE GOOD THING ABOUT THE DEVICES WE ARE USING BECAUSE WE HAVE COME ALONG GENERATIONS OF THESE VICES HAVE COME ALONG OUR DEVICE WILL TELL THE OPERATOR THERE IS A REAL AIRPLANE APPROACHING SO THEY CAN MAKE SURE THEY AVOID CONFLICT WITH AIRCRAFT AWELL AS THE DRONES TALK TO EACH OTHER SO THEY CAN'T HIT EACH OTHER NOR CAN THE EMPLOYEE FLY THE DRONE INTO A WALL. THE DRONE WON'T ALLOW THEM TO DO THAT EITHER. THERE'S A WIDE VARIETY OF SAFETY FEATURES ADDED TO THESE DEVICES PROTECTING THE INVESTMENT WE MADE TO EACH OF THESE THINGS WE ARE REQUIRED TO FLY IN DAYLIGHT ONLY LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES WITH FAA RULE WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT YOU CAN COME UP WITH A WAIVER WE ARE SEEKING A WAIVER TO ALLOW NIGHTTIME FLIGHT THAT ALLOWS OPERATORS TO FLY WITHIN OUR JURISDICTIONAL AREAS AFTER DAYLIGHT GIVING US A LITTLE TRACE TOOL ONE OF OUR DEVICES HAS A FLEUR ASSOCIATED TO IT. SO, IT CAN USE INFRARED IMAGES AT AT THE SAME TIME FLYING WITH A COLORED CAMERA. NOW, THE COME RA RECORDS IN FLEUR AND COLORED CAMERA. AS YOU ARE USING THE DEVICE ITSELF WE CAN FLY LESS THAN 100 MILES AN HOUR. WE CAN GET A WAIVER TO GO ABOVE, THAT BUT I DON'T THINK WE NEEDILY NEED TO GET INTO THAT ONE. BUT WE NEED TO YIELD TO AIRCRAFT WE HAD AN EVENT A CRIME OCCURRED AN INDIVIDUAL RAN OUT TO THE FIELDS ACROSS THE STREET IN THE VINEYARDS WE WERE ABLE TO DEPLOY THE DRONE IN TWO MINUTES AND COVER A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF AREA IN THE TIME PERIOD WE USED TO HAVE TO WAIT 15 TO 20 MINUTES FOR A HELICOPTER TO DO THE SAME THING THE DEVICE PROVIDES A LOT OF RESOURCES THAT A LARGER IMPLICIT AGENCY MAY HAVE WHEN THEY HAVE THEIR HELICOPTERS UP IN THE AIR THAT GIVES US ALL OF THOSE THINGS IT'S A THING WE CAN KEEP IN THE OFFICERS TRUNK OF THEIR CAR. WE ACTUALLY CAN'T FLY THE DRONE OVER PEOPLE. THAT'S WHAT WE KNOW IN SOME OF THE EVENTS WE HAVE IN THE COMMUNITY WE WON'T ALLOW PEOPLE TO FLY THE DRONE OVER PEOPLE. THIS IS AN IMPLICIT AGENCY WE CAN GET A WAIVER TO DO THAT IN SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES AND JUST THOSE IDEAS IF WE DO NEED TO FLY OVER IT WE REQUEST THAT WAIVER FROM FAA AND RECEIVE THAT WAIVER WHACK ALLOWING US TO DO THAT FLIGHT. LAST BUT NOT LEAST WE CAN'T BE IN A VEHICLE AND ACTUALLY FLY THE DRONE AT THE EXACT SAME TIME THAT IS THE IDEA MAKING SURE WE'RE MAKING A SAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR YOU TO HAVE. FOR US IN THE POLICE DEPARTMENT WE HAVE A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT MISSIONS WE USE THE DRONE FOR AND IT'S JUST THOSE IDEAS OF MAKING SURE WE ARE USING THE DRONE FOR APPROPRIATE REASONS. ONE OF THE THINGS I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO GET FROM OUR PRESENTATION HERE IS THE MAIN THING WE'RE DOG WITH OUR DRONE IS ACTUALLY RESPONDING TO CALLS FOR SERVICE WE ARE NOT USING IT FOR PROACTIVE WORK WE ARE NOT GOING OUT TO LOOK FOR THINGS WE'RE RESPONDING TO CALLS FOR SERVICE A MISSING PERSON WE CAN GET THE DRONE UP IN TWO MINUTES THE IDEA IS THIS ALLOWS US TO FIND THEM A LOT FASTER. ONE OF OUR DRONES HAS THE ABILITY TO HAVE A SPEAKER FIXED TO THE TOP OF IT WE CAN PROJECT JOYCE FOR 500 FEET EVEN THOUGH IT'S A SMALL LOOKING SPEAKER IT DOES A GOOD JOB YOU CAN HEAR IT FROM A FAR DISTANCE THAT ALLOWS THEM TO COMMUNICATE WITH SOMEBODY THERE HOLDING THEM HOSTAGE OR BROADCAST THAT MESSAGE TO THE SPEAKER AND HAS THE ABILITY TO HAVE FLOODLIGHT ON IT. WITH A HELICOPTER BRIGHT LIGHT THE TOP OF THE DRONE HAS A BRIGHT LIGHT AS WELL. IT'S AMAZING HOW BRIGHT THAT LIGHT IS. THERE'S A NUMBER OF MISSIONS WE USE THAT FOR. IT'S THE IDEA OF ENHANCING TO THE RESPONSE IN THE COMMUNITY. SOME OF THE RULES WE HAVE WITHIN OUR POLICY GENERAL ADDRESSING ISSUE PEOPLE HAVE THE USE OF THESE KINDS OF DEVICES IS THE DEVICE WON'T BE USED FOR SURVEILLANCE AS PART OF OUR TRAINING PROCESS OFFICERS HAVE TO GO THROUGH OUR POLICY THEY HAVE TO UNDERSTAND HERE'S WHAT I'M USING IT FOR AND THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRONE HAS TO BE APPROVED BY BY THE SUPERVISOR WHO KNOWS THE SAME EXACT POLICY WE HAVE A NUMBER OF STEPS TO MAKE SURE WE'RE NOT USING IT IN A DIFFERENT WAY. SAME THING WHAT WE DO WITH HELICOPTER IS. ONE OF THE CONCERNS YOU CAN USE AN FLEUR DEVICE TO FIND PEOPLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD GROWING MARIJUANA IN THEIR HOME HOW MUCH POWER THEY'RE USING NOT WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO WITH THIS KIND OF DEVICE. ANY TIME WE'RE DOG ACTIVITY THAT CAN LOOK DOWN INTO SOMEBODY'S YARD THERE IS CONCERNS ABOUT PRIVACY WE UNDERSTAND THAT. THOSE ARE THE THREE GUIDING THINGS FOR US IS THE SAFETY RESPECT FOR PEOPLE'S PRIVACY AND MAKE SURE WE ARE USING IT PROFESSIONALLY AS WE DO THIS THE PEOPLE SELECTED TO GO THROUGH AND DO THIS IS HELPING US OUT. SOME OF THE RECENT EVENTS IN OUR SECTOR OF THE COUNTY DRONES HAVE COME THROUGH AND PLAYED A SIGNIFICANT PART OF THE BUSINESS IN OUR COMMUNITIES SAFE EAR WE HAD A FIRE RECENTLY IN THE BAY POINT AREA ONE OF THE CHEVRON PIPELINES THEY KNEW THERE WAS A FIRE THE FIRE DEPARTMENT DIDN'T KNOW WHAT IS GOING ON THEY USED A DRONE TO PROJECT INTO ONE OF THE STORAGE CITES FIGURED OUT THERE'S AN ACTIVE FIRE THEY DID A HALF MILE EVACUATION FROM THAT AREA WITH THE BELIEF HAD THE WHOLE PIPELINE HAD GONE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM IN THE PAST WE WOULD HAVE TO DO A HEAT READING FROM THE SIDE OF THE ROOM YOU CAN DO IT FROM A DISTANCE GOING THROUGH THE FLER OF THE DRONE YOU ARE NOT ENDANGERING CO-PILOTS DOING THAT. SIGNIFICANT WAYS TO DO RESULTS WITH THAT. HERE PERSONALLY IN THE CITY ITSELF THIS IS A PICTURE FROM THE CITY HOOD CELEBRATION WHAT THE DRONE ALLOWS US TO DO IS MONITOR THIS KIND OF EVENT TO ZOOM IN ON THAT AREA TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON OR DEPLOY PEOPLE TO UNDERSTAND TO MAKE SURE WE CAN SEE WHAT IS GOING ON FOR WE DEPLOY RESOURCES HERE'S OVERHEAD PICTURE FROM THE EVENT. YOU CAN SEE HOW THE FLEUR ALLOWS US TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON. PEOPLE SAY THERE IS NOBODY LEFT AT HOOD AT NIGHT. THIS IS RIGHT BEFORE WE ENDED THERE ARE A SIGNIFICANT PEOPLE STILL AT THE EVENT IT ALLOWS US TO SEE WHAT IS GOING ON IN THAT SCENE ITSELF THIS IS AN EVENT THAT OCCURSED THE SAME NIGHT WE HAD A FIRE OCCURRED NEAR THE HIGH SCHOOL AT THE SAME TIME WE WERE DOING THE CITY HOOD CELEBRATION ONE OF THE THINGS WE WANT TO DO IS DEPLOY FIRE RESOURCES TO THOSE AREAS WE HAD FIREFIGHTERS IN THE COMMAND MOST WITH US THERE IS A SMALL FIRE TO THE SOUTH WHERE THAT HOUSE IS. WE FIGURED OUT AS WE ARE WATCHING WITH THE DRONE THE NEIGHBORS ARE FIGHTING THE FIRE THE NEIGHBORS HAD GONE THROUGH AND TAKEN CARE OF THAT AND WE DIDN'T NEED TO BRING A BUNCH OF FIRE RESOURCES TO ADDRESS THE SITUATION. THAT IS THE BEAUTY OF THE DRONE IT GIVES US AN EYE WE CAN SEE WHAT IS GOING ON. AND CONTROL THE DEPLOYMENT OF OUR RESOURCES 1 OF THE THINGS IT PROVIDES IS HIGH QUALITY STILL IMAGES THIS IS THE ESCAPE ROUTE FROM LAKE DEVELOPMENT WHAT WE HAD TO DO IN THE PAST IS GET THE SHERIFF'S HELICOPTER TO FLY OUT AND GIVE US IMAGES NOW WE CAN TAKE THESE IMAGES OURSELVES USING OUR EMPLOYEES, THIS IS THE SUMMER LAKE SCHOOL CAMPUS. THAT AGAIN HELPS US WITH OUR SECURITY PLANS WE HAVE FOR EACH OF THESE CAMPUSES WITHIN THE CITY. AS YOU CAN SEE HERE IT'S HARD TO SAY YOU WEREN'T DOING THIS WHEN THE DRONE HAS A PHOTO OF YOU DOING IT. YOU WILL SEE OP D OFFICERS SWAREN COMING UP FROM BEHIND THERE. HERE IS CLEARLY WHAT IS GOING ON. HE CAN DO THE TRAFFIC ENFORCEMENT STOP AND THE DRONE CAN HOVER OR OVER THE OFFICERS AND PROVIDING OFFICER SAFETY HERE'S WHAT THE OFFICER IS DOG. FOR US THE DRONES WE USE HAVE 30-MINUTE BATTERY TIME SO WE CAN HAVE THEM UP IN THE AIR FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AGAIN IT'S JUST THOSE IDEAS WE'RE CONTROLLING IT OURSELVES AND OUR RESOURCE, WE CAN KEEP THIS THING GOING OVER AND OVER AND DOESN'T NEED TO FLY BACK FOR FUEL. COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WE HAD BARRICADED SUBJECT IN THE HOME IN HIS COMMUNITY. THEY CREATE TACK CAL EVENTS FOR US THAT COULD GO ON FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME. HAD THE ANTIOCH DRONE COME OVER. THIS IS A PICTURE FROM THE DRONE. BY FLYING THE DRONE AROUND ATTRACTED THE ATTENTION OF THE SUBJECT ALONE INSIDE THE HOUSE. THE DRONE PILOT CAN SEE THE SUBJECT THERE. ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS ABOUT THE CHRON IS IT CAN DO REGULAR VIDEO AND DO FLEUR AT THE EXACT SAME MOMENT WE KNOW THAT SUBJECT IS ON THE BACKSIDE OF THE HOUSE ON THE SECOND FLOOR OF THE HOUSE WE KNEW HE WAS MAKING ENTRY ON THE FIRST FLOOR OF THE HOUSE TO BE BROUGHT TO AN ED THE IDEA FOR US IS WE CAN DEPLOY THESE DEVICES QUICKLY THEY ARE SMALL UNABTRUCEIVE FOR PEOPLE. PROVIDES US AN EXCELLENT RESOURCE TO ADDRESS A LOT OF PROBLEMS WE HAVE IN THE COMMUNITY BY HAVING OUR OWN AIR UBIQUITOUS WE CAN RESOLVE THOSE ISSUES QUICK FOR US. RIGHT NOW WE HAVE TWO DRONES WITHIN OUR FLEET. WE HAVE WHAT IS CALLED MAVIC PROZOOM. THEY ARE BOTH THE SAME MODEL OF DRONE THAT DEVICE HAS A ZOOM CAMERA LENS ON THEM. THE OTHER ENTERPRISE HAS A FLEUR AND STANDARD COLOR CAMERA. ALSO HAS THE ABILITY TO PUT THE SPEAKER ON THE TOP OF IT AND THE LIGHT SYSTEM AS WELL. THAT DRONE CAN DO A LOT OF OTHER ACTIVITIES FOR US AS WELL. SHOOTS HAS THE ABILITY TO SHOOT LASERS FROM THE WAIT A MINUTE OF IT ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE WORKING WITH WHEN WE HAVE COLLISION IN TOWN. 8 TO 10 HOURS WE WILL CLOSE THE ROAD WAY DOWN THE DRONE CAN TAKE 3D IMAGE OF OVER A 20-MINUTE TIME PERIOD SHOOT THAT SAME EXACT SCENE WE NORMALLY SPEND EIGHT HOURS WITH EMPLOYEES DOING THE DRONE CAN DO IT IN 20 TO 30 MINUTES CREATE A 3D MODEL WHERE EVERYTHING IS POSITIONED EXACTLY THE DISTANCE IT SHOULD BE. AND ALLOWS YOU TO HAVE THE 360 MODEL YOU WOULDN'T NECESSARILY HAVE FROM STATIC DIAGRAM WE CAN PROGRAM THE DRONE HAVE IT GO UPTAKE THE PHOTOS BRING IT BACK DOWN BRING THE DATA AND FASTER THAN THE PAST. LOTS OF PIECES OF TECHNOLOGY THE AKISSING FOR US IS ANY TIME A DISASTER WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO GO THROUGH AND FIGURE OUT WHAT IS GOING ON AND SEE WHAT IS GOING ON AND PROJECT THAT DATA BACK FOR OTHER PEOPLE TO SEE WITH THAT THAT IS KIND OF WHERE WE'RE AT WITH THE DRONE PROGRAM RIGHT NOW WE CONTINUE TO GO THROUGH THE PROCESS EVALUATEING THE EQUIPMENT GIVING OUR EMPLOYING MORE TRAINING WE ARE HOPING WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE THAT SUCCESS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. FOR YOUR TIME. >> [INAUDIBLE]. >> CHIEF IS THIS ANY KIND OF HELP FOR ILLEGAL FIREWORKS? >> THE ABILITY TO PITTSBURG P D IS A GOOD EXAMPLE LAST YEAR IN THE 4TH. OF JEWEL THEY DEPLOYED NOT NECESSARILY WITH THE IDEA OF DOING SURVEILLANCE BUT RESPONDING TO SERVICES WITH FIREWORKS THAT THEY PUT THEIR DRONE AS A CALL FOR SERVICE WOULD OCCUR THEY PLACE IT OVER THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHAT THEY WERE ABLE TO DO IS SEE THE PEOPLE FIRING THE FIREWORKS UP UNTIL THE AIR TALKING TO THE CHIEF THEY HAD 40% REDUCTION IN THE FIREWORKS IN THOSE AREAS BECAUSE THE DRONES WERE UP IN THOSE ZONES SO CAN IT BE DEPLOYED FOR THAT WITHIN OUR POLICY YES AS LONG AS WE ARE RESPONDING FOR CALL FOR SERVICE ONCE WE'RE IN THAT AREA WE HAVE A MISSION WE'RE DOG IN THAT AREA YOU WILL SEE A REDUCTION. ONE OF THE PROBLEMS WITH FIREWORKS IS YOU ARE ASKING US TO FIND OUT WHERE SOMEBODY SHOT A CANON FROM AND IT'S VERY DIFFICULT WITHOUT RADAR AND THINGS LIKE THIS. HOWEVER WHEN YOU HAVE A CAMERA IN THE AIR AND YOU CAN SEE IT COMES OUT OF MRS. SMITH'S BACKYARD YOU CAN TAKE ACTION AS A LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCY IT DID HAVE A SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION FOR THAT COMMUNITY YES MA'AM. >> ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? CHIEF THANK YOU VERY MUCH. AWESOME. 6.2. >> ANYBODY HAVE ANYTHING TO DISCUSS THIS EVENING? MRS. AR. >> ON JANUARY 2ND I ATTENDED ACTIVE SHOOTER HOSTED AMONG THOSE ARE CONTRA COSTA SHERIFF CLAYTON PERFORM D AND SHERIFF OFFICERS AS WELL AS EAST CONTRA COSTTA COUNTY PROTECTION DISTRICT FIRE, THE VOLUNTEERS THE STAFF AT HIGH SCHOOL WHERE IT WAS HELD AND OTHER COMMUNITY VOLUNTEERS THEY DID PROCESSIONS. HAVING SEEN SCENARIO TYPE CONSUME PETITIONS BEFORE FOR AS LONG AS I THINK RESOURCES WE HAD. IT WAS WELL DONE VERY INFORMATIONAL FROM WHAT I GATHER FROM THE CONVERSATIONS I HEARD BOTH FIRE PAR MEDIC AND OFFICERS OF THE OTHER AGENCIES THEY ALL SHARED IDEAS. REALIZED THE DIFFERENT WAYS FIRE ACTED AS OPPOSED TO P D ACTED AND CAME UP WITH IDEAS FOR FUTURE RESPONSES HOW THEY WOULD BLEND THEIR REACTIONS EVERYTHING WOULD BE EFFECTIVE AND EFFICIENT GOING FORWARD. I APPLAUD OAKLEY P D DID A GREAT JOB LIEUTENANT BAIRD DID THE SESSION IN THE MORNING AND DID AN EXCELLENT JOB IN THE MORNING [INAUDIBLE] I APPRECIATE THEIR PARTICIPATION IN THE IT. GOING FORWARD WE MAY BE ABLE TO EXPAND IT NOW THAT THESE OTHER AGENCIES HAVE HEARD AND OTHERS IN THE AREA MIGHT WANT TO JOIN US FOR THE NEXT ONE I BELIEVE THIS IS GOING TO BE AN ANNUAL EVENT AND MAY NEED MORE VOLUNTEERS WE CAN TAP INTO THE LEADERSHIP ACADEMIES FOR POSSIBLE VOLUNTEERS AND PERHAPS OUR YOUNGER VOLUNTEERS FROM THE HIGH SCHOOLS OR FROM OUR YOUTH PROGRAM THAT WE HAVE SO I THINK IT'S VALUABLE. I'M GLAD WE'RE DOLOGY IT GLAD THAT OTHER AGENCIES FOUND VALUE IN IT. I LOOK FORWARD TO IT GROWING AND EXPANDING ON UNIFYING RESPONSE IN THE FUTURE THE OTHER THING TO NOTE IS THE DIABLO WATER DISTRICT. YOU MAY RECEIVED YOUR NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING AT THE JANUARY 22ND MEETING, THERE SAY PROPOSED WATER BILL INCREASE OF UP TO 4.54% IF YOU WANT TO HAVE ANY SAY YOU WANT MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THAT, I URGE YOU TO ATTEND THE MEETING. THANK YOU. >> ANYONE ELSE? IN 1969 THE STATE MANDATED ALL CALIFORNIA CITIES AND COUNTIES MUST PLAN FOR HOUSING TO MEET THE NEEDS OF THEIR CURRENT RESIDENTS AND INM COMING RESIDENTS. THE STATE MANDATE IS CALLED THE REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ALLOCATION OR RENA AS PART OF THIS PROCESS THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT OR H C D TERMS THE TOTAL NUMBER OF NEW HOUSINGS NEEDED TO BE BUILT IN THE NEXT EIGHT YEARS AND THEN WORKS TO FIGURE OUT WHERE ALL OF THE HOUSES ARE GOING TO GO. DURING THIS PROCESS IT WORKS WITH WHAT ARE KNOWN AS COGNITIVES COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS THE NINE DOUBTYS ARE PART OF BAY AREA GOVERNMENTS OR ABAG H C D WILL HAND THE NUMBER OF HOUSING UNITS NEEDED MORE ALL NINE BAY AREA COUNTIES TO ABAG MADE UP OF GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS TO DETERMINE HOW THE DISBURSED THOSE HOUSES THROUGHOUT THE NINE BARRIER COUNTIES TO DO THIS, ABAG HAS A METHODOLOGY TO DETERMINE WHERE THOSE HOUSES ARE GOING TO GO. THEY ARE GOING TO LOOK AT POPULATION WHERE THE JOBS ARE AT. THEY WILL LOOK THE AI ANUMBER OF FEATURES THEY HAVE A METHODOLOGY COMMITTEE THAT HAS START THE WORK ALREADY FOR THE 2022-2030RENA NUMBERS PROCESS. AND LIKE I SAY, IT'S JOB IS TO TAKE ALL THE INCOME LEVELS FOR EVERYBODY ACROSS THE BAY AREA AND TRY TO DETERMINE HOW MANY HOUSING UNITS ARE NEEDED FOR EVERYBODY AT VARIOUS INCOME LEVELS THERE IS FOUR OF THEM THEY GO LOW AS 50% IN THE MEDIAN INCOME. THAT IS VERY LOW. LOW IS 50 TO 80% OF THE MEDIAN IN-HOME MODERATE IS 100 TO 120% OF THE MEDIAN NUMB AND AT ABOVE MODERATE IS EVERYBODY ABOVE 120% OF MEDIAN INCOME. THERE IS ABOUT 30 PEOPLE IN THIS METHODOLOGY COMMITTEE MADE UP OF CITY AND COUNTY STAFF ELECTED OFFICIAL HOUSING ADVOCATES NON-PROFITS HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AND LABORS AND THEY GET TOGETHER AND DEVELOP A METHODOLOGY THAT DETERMINES HOW MUCH HOUSING UNITS EACH CITY AND COUNTY WILL HAVE PROVIDED IN THE NEXT EIGHT YEARS. SO, SOME IMPORTANT DATES TO KEEP IN MIND AS WE MOVE FORWARD IN THIS PROCESS APRIL OF THIS YEAR H C D WILL HAND THE NUMBERS OVER TO ABAG NOW THEY HAVE DONE IT FOR THE SACRAMENTO AREA AND SACRAMENTO THIS YEAR COMPARED TO THE LAST EIGHT YEARS SAW 100% INCREASE OF NUMBER OF UNITS TO PROVIDE AND THEY HAVE DONE THIS TO LA AREA AND 300 % INCREASE THEY NEED TO TRY TO PLAN FOR TO WE ARE LOOKING WITH SOME ANXIETY ON WHAT WILL COME OUR WAY AS FAR AS BAY AREA. THEN IN SEPTEMBER OF THIS YEAR ABAG WILL RELEASE DRAFT METHODOLOGY C D TO REVIEW AND APPROVE. IN JANUARY OF THIS TIME NEXT YEAR ABAG WILL ADOPT FINANCIAL METHODOLOGY AND RELEASE DRAFT ALLOCATIONS WHICH MEANS EVERY CITY WILL BE ASSIGNED TO A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF HOUSING UNITS TO PROVIDE THOSE FOUR INCOME GROUPS THIS IS WHERE IT GETS DIFFICULT. IN THE PAST THIS HAS ALWAYS BEEN SOMEWHAT OF A SUGGESTION. BUT AS A HOUSING SHORTAGE IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA CONTINUES, TO GET MORE SERIOUS H C D IS PUTTING MORE I WON'T SAY PUNITIVE AND SACRAMENTO IS LOOKING FOR MORE WAYS TO MAKE SURE THAT THE CITIES AND COUNTIES MEET THOSE OBLIGATIONS AS OPPOSED TO A NUMBER LIKE SAY WE NEED TO BUILD 300 HOUSES FOR PEOPLE ABOVE MEDIAN INCOME IN THE NEXT EIGHT YEARS AND THAT'S ALL WE NEED TO DO. STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND SACRAMENTO LOOKING AT WAYS TO ASSIGN PENALTIES TO US FOR NOT REACHING THOSE GOALS EVEN THOUGH WE DON'T BUILD HOUSES IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO MAKE SURE THEY GET BUILT IT MAKES IT REALLY DIFFICULT. THEN WE HAVE THROUGH MARCH OF 21 TO APPEAL WHATEVER ALLOCATIONS IN AUGUST OF 2021 H C D WILL EVALUATE THE CHANGES WE HAVE MADE TO HOUSING DEVELOPMENT IT APPLIES TO STATE LAW AND DECEMBER 2022 WE NEED TO ADOPT A NEW HOUSING ELEMENT. THIS GETS TRICKY BECAUSE IF YOU WANT TO FILL UP THIS ROOM ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS TALK ABOUT WHERE WE'RE GOING TO PLAN FOR AFORDIBLE HOUSING. IN THIS ROOM IS FILLED OUT AND THE ANTIOCH ROOM IS FILLED UP WITH EVERYBODY SAYING NOT IN MY BACKYARD. THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE COMING TO US IN THE FUTURE WE ARE UNDER STATE MANDATES TO DO THIS. THIS IS NOT NECESSARILY SOMETHING WE LOOK FORWARD TO DOING. BECAUSE OF THE INCREASED SHORTAGE OF HOUSING AND THE SERIOUSNESS OF IT ALL THE STATE I LOOK FORWARD TO BECOME MORE INSISTENT ON HOUSING UNITS GETTING BUILT. MOVING ONTO ANOTHER FUN TOPIC THE CONTRA COSTA TRANSFORMATION AUTHORITY HAS QUALIFIED FOR THE MARCH 3RD BALLOT KNOWN AS MEASURE J. THE SAME ONE CURRENTLY IN PLACE WE WERE TAKEN ABACK BY THE ASSIGNMENT OF J FOR J IT WAS DONE RANDOMLY GRABBING LETTERS OUT OF A BUCKET WE CAME UP WITH J THE MEASURE IS ASKING FOR HALF CENT SALES TAX INCREASE FOR 35 YEARS $1.4 BILLION TO BE SPENT ONLY IN CONTRA COSTA COUNTY ON TRANSPORTATION AND CONGESTION MANAGEMENT ISSUES IT CANNOT BE TAKEN BY THE STATE IN THE PAST WHAT IS WORTH C TA'S WITH CURRENT MEASURE J FOR DOLLARS FED BY C T TA THEY HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MATCH IT WITH $3 FROM STATE AND FEDERAL LEVELS IT HELPS WHEN YOU ARE LOOKING FOR MAJOR PROJECTS HOW DO WE FIX A 680 HIGHWAY 480 CHANGE THAT MONEY HAS TO COME FROM SOMEWHERE. PART WILL COME FROM THIS INITIATIVE COME WILL COME FROM SB FUND IT ALL. NOT SPEND IT ALL THERE ARE A NUMBER OF CONGESTION ISSUES ON THE DOCKET WE CONTINUE TO GROW AS A COUNTY WE CONTINUE TO ADD MORE PEOPLE MORE CARS MORE CONGESTION THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO TRY TO ALLEVIATE THOSE ISSUES AND PROBLEMS. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT HAS COME UP RECENTLY IS A HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT THAT HAS SOMEHOW BEEN CLAIMED TO BE UNDERNEATH THE LORAL OVER PASS. WE NOTICED A LITTLE BIT OF IT NEXT DOOR PEOPLE ARE CALLING THE OPP D TO APPARENTLY IT'S A LARGE ENCAMPMENT. IT'S NOT UNDERNEATH THE LORAL OVER PASS CLOSER TO J.C. PENNY IN ANTIOCH WE HAVE NOTIFIED ANTIOCH P D AND THE COUNTY WE HAVE NOTIFIED CON FLOWER TO LET THEM KNOW. WE ARE AWARE OF IT WORKING ON IT WORKING WITH THE AUTHORITIES IN ANTIOCH TO ADDRESS THAT ISSUE BUT I HAVE SEEN A NUMBER OF REPORTS IT WAS UNDER LORAL IT'S OUR RESPONSIBILITY AND OAKLEY AND ANTIOCH IS AWARE OF IT. ITEM 7. WORKSESSION GENERAL PLAN WORKSESSION MOBILITY. MR. MCMURY. >> GAD EVENING VICE MAYOR, THIS IS OUR THIRD WORKSESSION IN THE TARGETED JANUARY UPDATE PLAN PROCESS THE TARGET IS TO DISCUSSION MOBILITY. WE HAVE A POWERPOINT PRESENTATION. BETH TOMPSON WITH DE NOVO PLANNING AND DOLLEN BAR GET TO ASSIST IN THAT. I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE AND ENTER INTO THE RECORD BEFORE WE BEGIN WE DID RECEIVE COUNSEL WAS COP EOTHERED ON IT FROM THE CONTRA COSTA COUNTY LEADERS WE RECEIVED SIMILAR INFORMATION ON OCTOBER WORKSESSION ON CLIMATE ADDITION NATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL INJUSTICE WE TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THEIR COMMENTS AND INCORPORATE THEIR COMMENTS WITH THAT DRAFT IS REALLY WE'RE IN THE INFORMATIONAL STAGE WE HAD PUBLIC SESSIONS WE HAVE INVITED THE PUBLIC TO PARTICIPATE THIS IS OPPORTUNITY NOW PRESENTING THE ISSUES RELATIVE UPDATE TO THE CITY COUNCIL. WE'RE ON IN THE EARLY ON IN THAT STAGE WE'RE TAKING THOSE COMMENTS AND WANT TODAY REASSURE YOU WE HAD THOSE. I WILL HAND THIS OVER TO BETH TO GO OVER THE POWERPOINT. [SPEAKING OFF THE MIC] COMMUNITY PRIORITIES AND VISION FOR THE FUTURE RELATED TO PRIORITY MOBILITY RELATED ISSUES ENED OTHER AA[AUDIO CUTTING OUT] [INAUDIBLE]. >> STREET DESIGN GUIDELINES THERE IS DRAWING SHOWING PREFERRED STREET LAY WITS AND CURB TO CURB WITS SO FORTH THEY VARY BY RESIDENTIAL AND SO FORTH. THE LAST CIRCULATION ELEMENT UPDATE IS IN 2002. SO, 30 PAGE DOCUMENT WITH GOALS AND POLICIES BASED ON OAKLEY 20 YEARS AGO AT THAT POINT THAT SR 4 FREEWAY HAD NOT BEEN OPENED THERE IS HIGHER TRAFFIC VOLUMES ON MAIN STREET THIS UPDATES UPDATE GOALS AND POLL CEASE BASED ON CURRENT CONDITIONS AND ALSO RESPOND TO CHANGES TO STATE LAW. IN TERMS OF CHANGES TO STATE LAW THERE ARE TWO KEY CHANGES IN RECENT YEARS. ONE IS THE STATE ADOPTED COMPLETE STREETS ACT WHICH OAKLEY IS FAMILIAR WITH IT'S BEEN AROUND A WHILE. THIS IS THE FIRST CIRCULATION ELEMENT SINCE THE STREET ACT WAS ADOPTED I WILL GET INTO DETAIL IN THAT A LITTLE BIT LATER THE SECOND COMPONENT YOU HAVE HEARD OF IS CEQA LAWS IS CHANGED SO TRAFFIC IMPACTS WILL NO LONGER BE BASED ON SEVEN OF SERVICE FOR E I R PURPOSES BUT INSTEAD BASED ON VEHICLE MILES TRAVELS. SO, THE COMPLETE STREETS ACT ADOPTED IN 2008 REQUIRES EVERY CITY TO THINK A LITTLE BIT HOLISTICLY AB PLANNING STREETS THE IDEA BICYCLEIST AND PEDESTRIAN SHOULD BE INCORPORATED INTO STREET PLANS NOT AS AN ASIDE BUT DIRECT COMPONENT OF THE PLAN. SO, AS PART OF WHAT THE NEXT UPDATE COULD INCLUDE ARE REFINEMENT TO THE ROAD WAY NETWORK PLAN TO FURTHER THE CON CREPT OF COMPLETE STREETS BICYCLE MAP FINDING THE STREET CROSS SECTIONS. AND THE GRAPHIC HERE SHOWS EXAMPLES OF STREET CROSS SECTIONS WITH SOME MORE RECENT CONCEPTS HOW BIKE LANES CAN BE INSTALLED WITH BUFFER TREATMENTS AND SO FORTH. ANOTHER TOPIC WE HAVE HEARD QUITE A BIT ABOUT THERE'S A COMMUNITY WORKSHOP FOCUSING ON MOBILITY AND ATTENDEES EXPRESSED STRONG INTEREST IN SAFETY SO THE MOBILITY ELEMENT COULD IDENTIFY A GREATER EMPHASIS ON SAFETY AND PLANNING THE ROAD WAY NETWORK RELATED TO COMPLETE STREETS AND ONE NOTICE A TABLE SHOWING THE NUMBER OF FATALITIES THERE WERE FOUR. TWO WERE BICYCLEIST ONE WAS A PEDESTRIAN AND ONE MOTOR PSYCHIST THAT STRESSES CERTAIN MODES OF TRAVEL ARE DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY SAFETY INEWES RELATIVE TO THE TOPIC OF VEHICLE MILES, TRAVELED THIS SHOWS COMPUTE CHARACTERISTICS TO OAKLEY AND COUNTY AS A WHOLE. THE MAIN POINT TO TAKE FROM THIS TABLE IS OAKLEY RESIDENTS IN TRAVELING TO WORK THEY HAVE A HIGHER TENDENCY TO DRIVE ALONE AND LOWER RATE OF TRANSIT USE AND LOOKING BACK AT DATA GOING BACK 30 YEARS GOING BACK TO 1990 THE KEY CHANGE SINCE 1990 THE CAR POOL LANE HAS DROPPED BY THAT SINCE 1990. THIS TABLE COMPARES TRAVEL TIME TO WORK BETWEEN OAKLEY AND THE COUNTY AND THE ENTIRE BAY AREA AND STATE, THE KEY HERE IS WE HAVE AVERAGE COMMUNITY OF 40 MINUTES THE AVERAGE OF CALIFORNIA IS LITTLE OVER 30 MINUTES THE AVERAGE FOR BAY AREA IS LITTLE OVER 30 MINUTES FOCUSING ON VEHICLES MILES TRAVELED THE TRIPS TO WORK WITH 41-MINUTE COMMUTE TIMES IS WHAT IS TRAVELING MTS AS A CITY THAT HAS BEEN HISTORICALLY A BEDROOM COMMUNITY. SO, THIS TABLE SHOWS OAKLEY'S PER CAPITAL RATE OF EMT ON A PER RESIDENT BASIS. I OAKLEY AVERAGES 23 MILES PER DAY PER RESIDENT. BY COMPARISON THE BAY AREA IS 15 MILES RESIDENT CONTRA COSTA IS 20 MILES THE AVERAGE EAST COULD WANTY IS 20 MULES OF ADJOINING CITIES ANTIOCH AND PITTSBURG IS 17 BRENTWOOD IS 21. SO, OAKLEY IS A BIT ON THE HIGH SIDE. IT SHOWS 2040 FORCASTS. SO, THAT DOES SHOW THE RATE OF EMT IS ANTICIPATED TO DROP. PART OF THAT REFLECTS IS REGIONAL MODELS IS PRESUMING BUILD OUT OF GENERAL PLAN MORE JOBS AND LOCAL SERVICES TO REDUCE THAT VMT THERE IS AN INITIAL VISIONING WORKSHOP OUT OF THAT WORKSHOP THIS MOBILITY THEME IS IDENTIFIED IT STATES THE MOBILITY THEM WAS CARS WILL CONTINUE TO BE A VIEAL PART OF MOBILITY TRANSPORTATION NETWORK HOWEVER AS THE CITY CONTINUES TO GROW ADDITIONAL EMPHASIS NEEDS TO BE ALTERNATIVE WAYS OF GETTING AROUND WALKING BICYCLEING AND PUBLIC TRANSIT, AND INCREASING SAFETY OF CIRCULATION CITY IS HIGH PRIORITY FOR THE CITY THAT CAME OUT OF THE FIRST VISIONING WORKSHOP AND RELEVANT TO ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE AS PART OF THE WE HAD A SECOND WORKSHOP THAT FOCUSED STRICTLY ON MOBILITY SOME ARE BARRIERS TO MOBILITY SOME EXPRESSED CONCERN WITH CONGESTION DOWNTOWN. LIMITED WALK WAYS NEAR SCHOOLS AND GENERAL CONCERN ABOUT LIPTED BARRIER TO GETTING AROUND. SO, OUT OF THAT WORKSHOP WE ASKED PARTICIPANTS TO IDENTIFY LONG TERM VISION AND WHAT THEY FEEL SHOULD BE THE TOP PRIORITIES FOR OAKLEY THINKING AHEAD 20 YEARS FOR THE TRANSPORTATION NETWORK. TRANSPORTATION SAFETY AT THE TOP OF THE LIST ALONG WITH PROVIDING ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION FACILITIES GREATER EMPHASIS ON BICYCLE AND WALKING IMPROVED REGIONAL TECTTIVETY THINKING ABOUT EBART IN PARTICULAR. AND JUST A GENERAL INTEREST IN IMPROVING ACCESS FOR ALL. OUT OF THAT THE GENERAL PLAN UPDATE, MOST CERTAINLY WILL PROVIDE PROPOES VEHICLE MILES TRAVELED POLICY TO HELP GUIDE SET CITYWIDE GOALS AND GUIDE THAT PROCESS OF REVIEWING PROJECTS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO CEQA FOR EVALUATING VMT IMPACTS. AND WE ALSO RECOMMEND THE CURRENT CIRCULATION ELEMENT STARTS OUT WITH GOAL NUMBER ONE TO PROVIDE EFFICIENT AND BALANCED TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM AND WILL RECOMMEND IN THE DRAFT IS REFINING THAT A BIT TO EMPHASIZE COMPLETE STREETS SIMILAR TO THE PLAN ALREADY IMFA SIZED BALANCED TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM. THAT IS SIMILAR TO COMPLETE STREETS WE WILL REFINE THAT A LITTLE BIT MAKE THAT A LITTLE CLEAR. OAKLEY DOES NOT HAVE BICYCLE PEDESTRIAN MASTER PLAN THIS WOULD BE A GOOD OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE A MINI BICYCLE PEDESTRIAN PLAN BY ADOPTING CITYWIDE BICYCLE NETWORK PLAN THAT COULD INCLUDE PEDESTRIAN CITY'S MAP TO GO ALONG WITH THAT. AND SOME OF THE OTHER ITEMS WILL INCLUDE POLICY RECOMMENDATION RELATED TO EMERGE MERGING TECHNOLOGY E SCOOTERS AND UBER AND SO FORTH AND TRUCK ROUTES RECONSIDER THE CITY'S CURRENT TRUCK ROUTE MAP SHOWS MAIN STREET Z AT THE TRUCK ROUTE. NOT ANY MORE? >> [SPEAKING OFF THE MIC]. >> OKAY. THEN COULD ALSO INCLUDE SOME STRATEGIES GEARED TOWARDS TRANSIT WHETHER ACCESS TO EBART OR SO FORTH. THERE IS A STUDY I BELIEVE C C T A IS LEADING THAT IS ACTUALLY LOOKING AT THAT. LOOKING AT TRANSIT CONNECTIONS TO. >> [SPEAKING OFF THE MIC]. >> I WILL SUMMARIZE THE FINAL STEPS WE HAVE GOTTEN THROUGH THE BEGINNING PROCESS I SPOKE ABOUT. WE'RE HERE IN JANUARY TO DISCUSS MOBILITY THEN GETTING THE ADMIN DRAFTS THE INTERNAL DRAFT TO STAFF IN MARCH OR APRIL. GOING THROUGH THAT WITH STAFF AND ADDITION FALL, CHANGES AND REFINEMENT TO COME TO YOU IN THE SUMMER CONCURRENT ONCE WE HAVE THE DRAFT COMPLETE WE ARE PRETTY CERTAIN THAT IT'S GOING IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION WE WILL ALSO BE RUNNING A CEQA CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ANALYSIS PLAN FOR THAT. WHEN YOU HAVE A GENERAL PLAN UPDATE THERE IS SIGNIFICANT CHANGES IN LAND EWE MAP FOR INTENSITY IN THIS CASE WE ARE NOT OPENING UP THE LAND USE MAP ALL OF THE REVISIONS RELATED TO MOBILITY AND TRANSPORTATION AND INCREASING ACCESS TO TRANSIT STRENGTHENING NETWORKS INCLUDING THE PLAN FOR THOSE FACILITIES WILL ASSIST IN REDUCING. BMT AND REDUCING GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND ADAPTATION AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE WILL REDUCE EXPOSURE WE ANTICIPATE THE GENERAL PLAN YOU ARE GOING TO SEE WILL REDUCE POTENTIAL IMPACTS WE ARE NOT ANTICIPATING NEED FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT THERE WON'T BE NEW DEVELOPMENT PROPOSED OR NOT REMOVING POLICIES THE CITY'S LEVEL OF ENVIRONMENTAL FROM TEX SUPPORTING POLL CEASE IN PLACE. SO, WE WOULD BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUEST
Minutes of the Regular Joint Meeting of the Oakley City Council/Oakley City Council Acting as the Successor Agency to the Oakley Redevelopment Agency/Oakley Public Financing Authority held January 14, 2020 1) OPENING MATTERS 1.1 Call to Order and Roll Call of the Oakley City Council/Oakley City Council Acting as the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency/Oakley Public Financing Authority Mayor Kevin Romick called the meeting to order at 6:31 p.m. in the Oakley City Council Chambers located at 3231 Main Street, Oakley, California. In addition to Mayor Romick, Vice Mayor Sue Higgins and Councilmembers Randy Pope and Claire Alaura were present. Mayor Romick announced Councilmember Krieg was absent due to a vacation. 1.2 Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag (Mayor Kevin Romick) Mayor Romick led the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag. 1.3 Proclaiming Recognizing January 2020 as Human Trafficking Awareness Month (Representative from the Family Resource Center) On behalf of the City Council, Mayor Romick presented the proclamation to Claudia Gonzalez with the Contra Costa Human Trafficking Coalition. Ms. Gonzalez provided information regarding a Contra Costa Human Trafficking Awareness event to be held January 24, 2020, 12pm-2pm, at the East Family Justice Center located at 3501 Lone Tree Way, Suite 4, Antioch, California. She provided a handout for the event. 1.4 Update Provided by District 2 BART Director, Mark Foley District 2 BART Director Mark Foley provided an update including that his title has changed to Vice President and this is the first time East County has had a Director serving as Vice President. He mentioned BART has provided service for 6 decades and its goals are to be efficient, reliable, reduce traffic congestion and improve the environment. He shared that BART has more than 700 rail cars, 48 stations (12 in Contra Costa County), 122 miles of track, and 90% of the time, trains are on time. He mentioned Antioch is the busiest line. He shared that 79.6% of operating revenue depends on riders which impacts officers and fares. He mentioned BART is looking to improve Transbay capacity to move people faster. He shared that BART has a project in the FTA capital investment grant program to improve capacity by 40% including train control, additional cars, traction power, and rail car storage. He mentioned currently, 24 trains can move through the tube per hour due to antiquated equipment and at the last board meeting, the board took action to enter into contract to upgrade the system to move 30 trains through the tube per hour. He shared that the fleet of the future will include increasing from 669 cars to 1200 cars; as of December, 140 cars are on site
being tested, 120 are in process to be certified by the state, and 78 are currently running. He added that in February 2020, BART should be able to receive enough cars for all 10 trains to go through the tube during peak hours. He shared that the Antioch station has been such a great success, that more parking is needed; therefore, in November, the board approved awarding a contract for another parking lot; the project came in under budget, the ground breaking will be held in March and it should be completed by end of the year, weather permitting. He announced $25 million has been earmarked for safe routes to BART program to encourage people to take BART; one project per station or regional area will be considered, the project will be brought to the board next month and if approved, BART will solicit applications in its first quarter and review and approve applications in its second quarter, then begin disbursing funds. He shared that BART conducted a study and for quality of life it needs 300 officers so the plan is to add 19 officers a year for 5 years (BART has approximately 200 officers now). He explained issues BART is addressing are people skipping fares, homelessness and new fare gates. He announced beginning February 10, BART will have an ambassador program which will provide personnel who will ride trains evenings and weekends, 2pm- 12am, to help monitor various issues. He mentioned in 2019, BART hired 59 officers more than the last 3 years combined to make riding BART a safe environment. He announced BART will continue its CORE program which provides assistance at the end of the transit lines to individuals who are housing unstable or trying to get somewhere else. Councilmember Alaura inquired if cities with BART stations will take precedent for grant funds for safe routes to BART. Mr. Foley responded that BART will be looking at the best projects that appeal to the community as a whole, not which city submitted the proposal. Vice Mayor Higgins inquired how many people use the BART app. Mr. Foley mentioned it is an important tool for reporting biohazards and he expects increased use at the end of the month as it will be able to be used for parking. Vice Mayor Higgins commented she rides BART on evenings and weekends and there are people who provide entertainment then solicit for donations and there are also people trying to take phones, so she hopes the ambassador program will help. Mr. Foley reported that BART recently hired Chief Ed Alvarez and the first thing he did was to bring 12 officers in just to work evenings and weekends so BART is trying to remedy issues. Mayor Romick commented that he understands the BART fare cards are going to clipper cards and he would like to see clipper cards phase out and for everyone to use the BART app. He inquired if new cars are replacing some of the older cars. Mr. Foley explained that BART has limited storage. He mentioned there was an RFP last summer to determine the value of old cars and BART had no offers for the purchase of old cars. He explained BART is bringing new cars in, stripping and recycling old cars, targeting old cars, and trying to do a 1-1 trade out because it can’t store too many. He added the first old car went to the recycling center in November. He mentioned as the State certifies and makes the new cars available, BART can put them into service. He
explained some cars have had wiring issues that they want to resolve, but they hope to deliver a couple of cars each month out of Pittsburg. Mayor Romick commented that BART’s technology was state of art in 1960s but is now outdated. He mentioned that Tri-Delta has a park and ride in the design phase for Main Street near the proposed train platform location which will hopefully be done within a year. He inquired if this is the type of project BART is looking for when talking about safe routes to BART funding. Mr. Foley confirmed it is the type of project that could be considered. Councilmember Alaura commented that some cities may be looking into old BART trains to provide small homes. Mr. Foley mentioned BART has received a number of ideas to repurpose the old trains, i.e., first responders want to use them for training and practice, cities to provide homeless housing, and the railway museum for historical purposes. He added that BART is open to suggestions. 2) PUBLIC COMMENTS Public Comment Cards Michael Dupray, Commander of the Veterans of Oakley, provided an update including that the Veterans of Oakley have experienced some personnel changes and lost some key members. He shared that the group is looking to expand and be more inclusive, they are receiving help from Meghan Bell, they have elected new officers, they are still a 501(c)(3) organization and well-funded. He mentioned the city banner program took a lot of work to put together and they need to decide whether to make it free to the public or charge a fee. He added that Antioch does it for free, but they haven’t decided if they want a tiered program. He shared that the group moved out of its storage area into a cubby hole at the Oakley Senior Center. He mentioned as the group grows, it has plans to become more involved in the community, i.e., with Veteran home ownership and scholarships. He submitted a letter explaining the Veteran banner program and a handout providing the options for the Veteran banners. Nichole Perreira-Romiti did not speak but requested the following comments be made part of the meeting record in relation to a desired emergency warming station for the cold/wet seasons: The weather conditions are hellacious and unsafe for anyone to live in. It is cruel and inhumane to leave homeless out there. They should not get a criminal record for needing help. Online Comments None.

It was moved by Councilmember Alaura and seconded by Vice Mayor Higgins to approve the remainder of the Consent Calendar. Motion was unanimous and so ordered. (4-0) Item 3.6 Public Comment Card Bruce “Ole” Ohlson, representing the Delta Pedalers Cycling Club, mentioned he rode his bike to the meeting from Pittsburg and after the BART report, he will have to experiment riding from the Antioch eBART station to the Pittsburg eBART station. He requested the City Council consider a bike path through the DuPont property to provide an extension of the Big Break Trail from the Big Break Regional Shoreline Visitor Center through the Cline vineyard and DuPont property to the Antioch Regional Shoreline. He explained it would be an extension of an existing paved regional trail which joins the Marsh Creek trail which goes all the way to Brentwood and is planned to go all the way to Clayton. He requested that the City Council not forget bikes and pedestrians when the DuPont property is developed. Online Comments None. Item 3.7 Public Comment Card George Fuller commented on Sections 7, 8.2 and 8.3 of the Development Agreement. He mentioned Section 7 states that a referendum or initiative is not allowed which is of concern to him because the agreement will go forward regardless of how people will petition their government. He mentioned to Councilmember Alaura that he addressed this same concern with her about Mr. Montgomery’s contract and she told him it is common to include this type of provision, but if you look at comments, leadership is following ethics and ethics is protecting the Constitution. He mentioned Councilmember Pope is aware of this because he was sworn in and ethics is a 24/7 commitment, not to be waived. He mentioned Vice Mayor Higgins has sworn to do no harm and she has to consider whether or not harm is being done to constituents by not allowing them to petition their government. He mentioned in Section 8.2, $3 million is a lot of money and it is conditional upon the building permit and it is conditional to traffic. He mentioned in Section 8.3, $850k is for the community to use as it sees fit, which is again conditional upon the building permit. He suggested in putting together the design and upholding building codes, it becomes difficult if the developer decides they don’t want to do that and takes the money and walks away, but sometimes that needs to happen. Online Comments None.
Item 3.11 Public Comment Card George Fuller commented on the financial impact of approving the lease amendment. He mentioned the business is having financial difficulties. He shared an example that a Recreation Guide (in hand) is great for the municipal government, but constituents are asking the City to stay out of private business. He mentioned he has been told that if he doesn’t know for sure, to ask. He mentioned the fiscal impact says the City received revenue which he gets; however, he would like to know if there is net gain or net loss over 5 years with the renegotiated lease, how much, or if it is static. He requested those figures. City Manager Bryan Montgomery commented that he and Mr. Fuller have had probably a dozen conversations where he has invited Mr. Fuller to meet to discuss any questions which Mr. Fuller has not done. He mentioned this is the first time he is hearing his question and he is not sure he fully understands it. In response to Mr. Fuller’s comment regarding the building permit, Mr. Montgomery explained the condition is that if the developer seeks a building permit, they must pay fees; if they don’t seek a building permit, they don’t pay fees. He added Mr. Fuller’s comments are inaccurate and misleading and he will continue to invite Mr. Fuller to discuss any questions he may have. Online Comments None. It was moved by Vice Mayor Higgins and seconded by Councilmember Alaura to approve items 3.6, 3.7 and 3.11. Motion was unanimous and so ordered. (4-0) 4) PUBLIC HEARINGS None. 5) REGULAR CALENDAR 5.1 Fiscal Year 2019/2020 Second Quarter Report on the Capital Improvement Program (Kevin Rohani P.E., Public Works Director/City Engineer) Kevin Rohani presented the report. He shared that construction of the athletic field at Nunn-Wilson Park is complete, the new traffic signal at Empire and Gateway is complete, the Civic Center campus Police locker room and evidence room expansion project is almost complete, and the Civic Center emergency generator is en route to Oakley and will be installed by the end of month to provide back-up power to all departments to operate the campus and service the community during power outages. He shared that staff is in the bidding phase for the Laurel Road improvements from Mellowood Drive to Main Street which will provide 2 lanes in west and east bound directions. He mentioned the last leg of the Downtown streets area is improvements to the Main Street and O’Hara Avenue intersection which will extend O’Hara Avenue
across Main Street to connect to the new train platform area and will open up the Downtown corridor. He also mentioned that the Summer Lake, Fall Lane and Gardenia neighborhoods will soon receive pavement improvements and the City has secured almost $1 million in funding for street resurfacing on Vintage Parkway from Main Street to Big Break Road. Councilmember Alaura mentioned the state set aside funds for projects impacted by PG&E shut offs. She inquired if those funds would apply to an emergency generator project for Civic Center or the Recreation Center. City Manager Bryan Montgomery responded that the City has applied for funds, but has not heard back yet and the funds would be applied for an emergency generator for the Recreation Center. Councilmember Alaura inquired if there is a cap on the funds. Mr. Montgomery responded there is a cap of $250k. Mayor Romick thanked him for his report. 6) REPORTS 6.1 CITY MANAGER (a) City Manager (b) Report on Unmanned Aircraft Systems (Drones) (Eric Christensen, Chief of Police) City Manager Bryan Montgomery reported that he will defer his time for the Chief of Police to provide his report. Chief of Police Eric Christensen reported on the Police Department’s UAS program. He explained the program is run like an aircraft program, including training and certifications for pilots. He explained operators have online resources for training, it requires a pilot license to fly UAS, pilot training is conducted on Ironhouse Sanitary District land, and staff member who is a long-time drone pilot helps officers train. He also explained that FAA requirements must be followed, e.g., when UAS can and cannot be used. He added that the Police Department’s use of UAS must be compliant with FAA regulations, the City’s drone ordinance and department policy. He shared that UAS must be used within sight and the Police Department’s UAS has a 5 mile range. He also shared that the UAS must fly below 400 feet and the UAS used by the Police Department will tell the operator if a real aircraft is approaching; the UAS communicate to each other so they don’t run into each other (or walls). He mentioned the UAS is required to fly only during daytime, but the Police Department is seeking a waiver to fly at night. He shared that one device has FLIR so it has infrared capability while flying, along with regular color. He mentioned the UAS have to fly less than 100 miles per hour and have to yield to real aircraft. He explained the use of UAS provides an efficiency benefit in that the UAS can be activated in a couple minutes rather than waiting for a helicopter; it gives the Police Department more options and can be kept in the trunk of a police vehicle. He mentioned the UAS may not be flown over people, but Police can get a waiver in special circumstances. He also mentioned the operator of the UAS cannot drive a vehicle and fly the UAS at the
same time for safety reasons. He shared that UAS are being used only to respond to incidents; they are not being used proactively. He explained some of the missions UAS are used for are missing persons, natural disasters, fleeing suspects, crime scenes, active shooters, fires, and security. He mentioned the UAS can have speaker projection up to 500 feet to communicate with others and also contain a bright light. He mentioned there are restrictions; the UAS will not be used for surveillance, deployment of UAS must be approved by a supervisor, the FLIR device will not be used to detect power (i.e., marijuana grows), UAS will not contain weapons, and privacy rights will be respected. He mentioned UAS have helped with safety incidents where the UAS was projected into an area rather than a person to ensure safety and provide an assessment of the situation. He also mentioned the UAS has been used at events to assess situations before deploying resources, UAS can take high quality images to develop security plans, and UAS can assist with safety by hovering over officers responding to events. He shared that UAS have a 30-minute battery time and FLIR on the UAS allows identification of persons within a structure. He shared that the Police Department has two UAS in its fleet, the Mavic Pro Zoom and Mavic Enterprise (which can also shoot lasers and take 3D images of traffic scenes in 20-30 minutes rather than using staff to perform the same function which can take 10-12 hours). Vice Mayor Higgins inquired if UAS can be used to detect illegal fireworks. Chief Christensen responded that the Pittsburg Police Department used it for responding to calls for service involving fireworks (they could see people who were firing them in the air) and saw a 40% reduction in the use of illegal fireworks. He mentioned the policy indicates UAS can be used for responding to calls for service. 6.2 OAKLEY CITY COUNCIL/OAKLEY CITY COUNCIL ACTING AS THE SUCCESSOR AGENCY TO THE OAKLEY REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY (a) Reports from Council Liaisons to Regional Committees, Commissions and Boards AND Oakley City Council/Oakley City Council Acting as the Successor Agency to the Oakley Redevelopment Agency Councilmember Alaura reported that she attended active shooter training on January 2 at Freedom High School, led by the Oakley Police Department and involving other public agencies as well as volunteers. She mentioned there were two sessions, the training was well done and informational according to feedback she received. She mentioned agencies shared ideas and came up with ideas how to blend their actions. She also mentioned Lieutenant Beard led the morning session and did an excellent job. She shared that CERT volunteers and school staff were great actors and she appreciates their participation. She indicated more volunteers may be needed for future events and suggested outreach to Leadership Academy graduates and the Oakley Youth Advisory Committee. She expressed the training was valuable, she is glad the Police Department is doing it and she looks forward to the training expanding to unify agency response in the future. She also reported that Diablo Water District will have a public hearing January 22 to discuss a proposed water bill increase up to 5.45 % for the average customer. Mayor Romick reported that in 1969, the State mandated cities and counties plan for housing needs of their residents through the Regional Housing Needs Allocation
(RHNA). He explained Council of Governments (COGs) such as ABAG formed to determine how to meet the RHNA mandate. He further explained that the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) provides housing numbers to ABAG to determine how to disburse housing to 9 Bay Area counties. He mentioned ABAG created a methodology to make the determination which is based on population, jobs, and median income to name some factors, and it has a 30 person committee to work on it for 2022-2030. He explained the determination will provide how many housing units the City will have to provide in next 8 years. He shared the timeline of the process and dates to be aware of including the following: April 2020: HCD will provide housing numbers to ABAG. September 2020: ABAG will submit its methodology to HCD to review and approve. January 2021: ABAG will adopt its final methodology and release its draft allocations which means each city will receive the number of housing units it must provide for four median income level groups. March 2021: Deadline to appeal the allocations. August 2021: HCD will evaluate the changes to the housing element to ensure it complies with state law. December 2021: The new housing element is adopted. He explained that the State is becoming more insistent to ensure cities and counties are reaching housing goals, including penalties, which is very difficult when no one wants affordable housing in their backyard and the City is not a builder, but the City is under state mandate to provide it. He also reported that the Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA) Measure J has qualified for the March 3, 2020 ballot to ask for a 1/2 cent sales tax increase over the next 35 years to raise $1.4 billion to be spent only in Contra Costa County for transportation and congestion management issues and the funds cannot be taken by the state. He mentioned previously, CCTA has been able to match every dollar spent with $3 of state and federal funding. He explained that it helps the CCTA to go into battle with funding for major projects if it needs to request a match from state and federal funding. He added SB1 funding and federal funding will help to address some transportation and congestion issues. Lastly, he reported that there have been reports of a homeless encampment under the Laurel overpass; however, it is not located under the Laurel overpass or in Oakley, but rather closer to JC Penney in Antioch. He mentioned the City has notified the City of Antioch Police Department, the County and ConFire (because there was a small brush fire there recently) to address the encampment. (b) Requests for Future Agendas None. 7) WORK SESSIONS 7.1 General Plan Work Session – Mobility (Joshua McMurray, Community Development Director) Community Development Director Joshua McMurray presented the staff report. He mentioned this is the third work session in the General Plan update. He also mentioned staff received an email from Contra Costa Climate Leaders which the City Council was
copied on. He shared that staff has taken its comments into account and is working to incorporate as many of its comments as possible with the draft update. Beth Thompson, Principal with De Novo Planning Group and Colin Burgett, Senior Project Manager with TJKM Transportation, presented the update. Ms. Thompson shared that the first phase of the update has been completed and draft revisions will come back for consideration in the late summer of 2021. Mr. Burgett mentioned they will assist to update the City’s current process and respond to changes in State law. He shared two key changes to state law: 1) the Complete Streets Act; and 2) CEQA law being changed so traffic impacts will no longer be based on service but rather on vehicle miles traveled (VMT). He discussed that Oakley residents have a higher tendency to drive alone and travel commute time for Oakley residents is an average of 41 minutes. He mentioned VMTs per capita rate is 23 miles per day per Oakley resident which is expected to drop by 2040 when more local jobs and businesses help reduce VMTs. He mentioned there is a mobility theme in community workshops that have been held and they are looking at alternate ways to get around and increase safety of getting around. He shared that barriers to mobility that have been expressed are congestion in the Downtown, limited walkways near schools and limited transit service. He mentioned long-term visions and top priorities include transportation safety, active facilities, improving regional connectivity with eBART, and improving access for all. He added they will provide a proposed VMT policy and help guide the process for reviewing projects subject to CEQA. He mentioned the current plan provides an efficient balanced transportation system but they can refine it and emphasize complete streets. He added this would be a good opportunity for a mini bike and pedestrian plan and/or map. He mentioned they will also include a policy recommendation to consider emerging technology, truck routes, and strategies conducive to transit (taking into consideration the Contra Costa Transportation Authority study). Ms. Thompson discussed the remaining steps and timeline for the update. Councilmember Pope commented he is intrigued by the suggestion of modifying the vehicle weight limits near schools. He inquired how that would be implemented. Mr. Burgett mentioned this was a suggestion at a workshop by community member. He shared that they would examine the current truck route to determine if they could reroute it around schools. Councilmember Pope inquired about the weight limit. Mr. Burgett responded that he believes the community member was referring to big rigs. Councilmember Pope mentioned the update is silent on motorcyclists. He shared that East County has a high number of motorcyclists and he would like to see them identified in the update to improve safety and encourage motorcycle use to reduce congestion and emissions. Mayor Romick commented that TRANSPLAN has a bicycle plan if the consultants need a place to start to develop a City bicycle plan.
Councilmember Pope commented that they also have a regional trails plan. Public Comment Cards Bruce “Ole” Ohlson commented that on page 132, the mobility white paper, section 3.1.1 (d), discusses the City thriving to maintain a level of service for motor vehicles throughout all signalized intersections in city which he believes is in direct conflict with section 3.1.5 which supports non-automobile traffic. He mentioned the level of service is to flush cars through intersection as quickly as possible where there are also bikes and pedestrians and it seems that the document prioritizes vehicles over bikes and pedestrians. He suggested to add a goal, section 3.1.5.5, to include a policy encouraging every street that is restriped to add striped bike lanes (and reduce traffic lanes and bike lanes by the same percentage to make everything fit between the curb faces) as has been done in Pittsburg’s new bicycle and pedestrian plan which seems to be working. He suggested on the next page under Programs section 3.2(a) to strike the word “encourage” and replace it with “require”, for developers to include design features including bicyclists and pedestrians during the site plan review process. He mentioned in policy 3.2.4, it provides that the design of new roadway facilities should include Class 1, 2 or 3 as appropriate, but in new roadways, the City should not even think of including Class 3 because it is a stencil on the road to encourage the bicyclist to go into traffic and get run over. Mayor Romick suggested Mr. Ohlson email him with any additional comments. Lynda Deschambeux mentioned a letter was submitted in October 2019 by 15 environmental agencies who are watching Oakley’s General Plan update. She mentioned the Governor’s Office has plans how to include environmental change in updates. She mentioned environmental justice is clear that pollutants, including CO2, are a big part of the disproportionate exposure to chemicals in communities and when you do a climate action plan and you do the greenhouse gas emission inventory,50% is due to transportation. She mentioned she is disappointed that the white paper includes little information about this and requested it be made more front and center. She mentioned this is a great opportunity to include things like electric vehicles and electric vehicle charging stations with new development. She mentioned VMTs are important, but also reduction of pollutants can occur if alternative fuel vehicle is encouraged, including City vehicles. She shared that they did a score card of the 19 Contra Costa cities and Oakley is number 12 in the number of electric vehicle charging stations within the city. She mentioned the State gives clear guidance on how to incorporate climate change. She requested more robust language in the update. Online Comments C.J. Sveen requested the City Council consider installing sidewalks along Main Street just west of the Downtown area and City Hall between Vintage Parkway and Gardenia Avenue/Miguel Drive to allow Oakley to continue to be “A SAFE Place for Families in the Heart of the Delta”. He mentioned pedestrians are in peril while traveling the 530 feet of unfinished infrastructure, this is a hazardous and dangerous path to travel to attend various events in the Downtown area, and it is very difficult for the mobility challenged to navigate curbs, deep sand and various road debris from fast moving vehicle traffic.
Ms. Thompson mentioned in response to Mr. Ohlson’s comments, Mr. Ohlson is looking at the existing policies in the City’s existing Plan and they will be reviewing these sections with the update. Councilmember Pope inquired how the use of alternative fuel vehicles affects VMTs for a CEQA analysis. Mr. Burgett commented that VMTs would not be affected because it is already assumed there is a certain reduction. He added that the analysis goes a step further than just cleaner vehicles to reduce VMTs; it is offset by population growth. He mentioned for specific project, the City could look at mitigation and require specific components or conditions. He suggested the City fleet policy could include clean vehicles. Ms. Thompson commented that in looking at the City’s transportation impacts, they will look at how vehicle miles are traveled, projections for the future, what will happen with changes made to the City’s General Plan, supporting a multi-modal network, encouraging use of alternative vehicles, how it contributes to reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, and supporting a balanced land use plan; therefore, the City will be looking at transportation impacts more holistically in the future; while there will be a VMT indicator, the analysis in the environmental document will show how it supports the City’s overall goals. Councilmember Pope commented that this Plan will be good for the next 20 years. He inquired what the City can do to include emerging technology such as self-driving cars or self-driving mass transit. Mr. Burgett commented that the plan can include some goals and policy to provide guidance. He mentioned there is a lot of activity by ride sharing companies for self- driving vehicles. Mr. McMurray suggested if technology improves or changes, amendments can be proposed at that time. Councilmember Pope requested Mr. Burgett address the bike classes mentioned during a public comment. Mr. Burgett mentioned “Class 3” often include signs and more recently stenciling on the pavement; however, the bicyclist is required to share the road with vehicles; bicycles do not get a separate path. Mayor Romick commented that Class 3 bicycle lanes are on Empire Avenue. Mr. Burgett commented that it is reasonable for collector streets to require more shared lanes with bicyclists, but not on low-traffic residential streets. Councilmember Pope mentioned he is in favor of grades separated by paths which should be the focus on new roadway construction. He also mentioned he doesn’t like where parking is moved to accommodate the bicycle lane such as on Telegraph in Oakland, but he would like a separate path, especially on main arterials.
7.2 Review of Upcoming Strategic Plan Process (Nancy Marquez, Assistant to the City Manager) Assistant to the City Manager Nancy Marquez reviewed the proposed Strategic Plan process for 2020. She mentioned past processes have been successful and she would love to hear ideas for greater resident participation. She explained the Strategic Plan has 7 Areas of Focus with goals and there are specific action items to help complete the Area of Focus goals. She also explained that a resident satisfaction survey will go out to 500 random addresses (residents subscribing to garbage service) and will be available online. She mentioned through Engage in Oakley, residents can weigh in, prioritize matters, give and annotate goals, and this information has been previously used to drive changes. She mentioned after the survey, staff will analyze results, a staff and City Council meeting will be held mid-March to discuss the survey and on April 21, a community meeting will be held at the Oakley Recreation Center to further discuss the Strategic Plan with residents. She added that the community meeting will be followed by a City Council work session, a draft plan, and then adoption of the plan. She requested input from the City Council. Mayor Romick commented that the current process as described works for him. Councilmember Alaura inquired what percentage of surveys are returned from the 500 random surveys that are mailed. Ms. Marquez responded approximately 25% are returned. Councilmember Alaura suggested moving forward that staff increase the number of surveys and send 1,000 surveys. She mentioned the online survey is made available on the City’s website and inquired where else it is advertised. Ms. Marquez mentioned it is also advertised through press releases and social media. Councilmember Alaura commented it is always hard to get new people to get involved, but if the City expands the number of surveys and ways to communicate it, it will help. Ms. Marquez suggested the Oak Leaf newsletter would be good opportunity to include the community meeting date and asked the City Council to confirm if April 21 works. City Manager Bryan Montgomery commented that April 21 is a date that the Recreation Center would not have to bump others off of the schedule. He also commented that there is a cost associated to increasing the number of surveys which may not change the margin of error. Councilmember Alaura explained that sampling 500 random residents doesn’t seem to be a real sample of the City’s population of almost 45,000 residents. She suggested the surveys could be increased 3-4 times the current amount. Councilmember Pope commented that he enjoys the process and its one downfall is the lack of participation by residents. He suggested using the survey as part of advertising the staff/City Council, community and workshop meetings in future.
Ms. Marquez mentioned a reminder postcard goes out to the residents who receive the survey. She mentioned they also host raffles to provide some incentive to attend. Councilmember Pope suggested food might increase participation, but also mentioned it is probably not in the budget. He expressed his point is that there need to be creative ways to get the word out and get more residents to participate. Councilmember Alaura suggested if food would draw people to attend, the food trucks could be invited to the meeting. Councilmember Pope suggested adding outreach through leagues and schools. Ms. Marquez mentioned staff provides letters to all community organization and service clubs. Mr. Montgomery added that thousands of residents also receive email blasts. Ms. Marquez mentioned it is nearly 4,000 residents who receive email blasts. Mayor Romick commented that it is always a struggle with how to get information out. An audience member commented that she has worked at Freedom High School and never knew the Strategic Planning meetings were held there, except for one meeting she attended and she does not recall how she heard about the meeting. Ms. Marquez mentioned the meeting was previously held at Freedom High School on at least 3 separate occasions. 8) CLOSED SESSION None. 9) ADJOURN There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 8:39 p.m. Respectively Submitted, Libby Vreonis City Clerk
