WE WILL GO OUT TO PRESENTATIONS FOR THE GRID ALTERNATIVES. >> AS WE PREPARE TO GO INTO THE PRESENTATION FROM GRID ALTERNATIVES YOU CAN GET UP AND START GETTING READY. QUICKLY, AS PART OF THE AGENDA BEFORE THE REPORTS WE HAVE CORRESPONDENCE. I JUST HAVE A COUPLE ITEMS TO MENTION. A COUPLE ITEMS I WANT TO MAKE SURE TO MENTION, THE FIRST IS WE WILL BE HAVING NEIGHBORHOOD IMPROVEMENT MEETINGS STARTING TRAUMA AT THE SENIOR CENTER FROM 6:00 TO 8:00 P.M. THERE WILL BE A SPANISH VERSION FROM NOON UNTIL 2:00 P.M. FRIDAY, MAY 3rd. ON SATURDAY, MAY 4th WE WILL BE AT THE MARINA CENTER FROM 10:00 TO NOON. ALSO, A COUPLE OF EVENTS TO ANNOUNCE. I'M SURE WE HAVE A TON I WILL FORGET, BUT THE HIGHLIGHT HERE IS REALLY THAT THE CAR SHOWS WILL BEGIN ON MAY 9th. THURSDAYS BEGINNING 6:00 DOWN -- SQUARE. I BELIEVE WE WILL MEET BEFORE THE FIRST ONE, BUT THE RECREATION DEPARTMENT WILL ALSO BE HOSTING FIRST FRIDAYS BEGINNING IN JUNE AT THE MARINA GREEN NEAR 51 MARINA. FAMILY FUN FRIDAYS, THE LAST FRIDAY OF EACH MONTH BEGINNING IN JUNE RUNNING TO THE FALL. THAT IS IT FOR NOW. >> THE FAMILY FUN FRIDAYS AT THE MARINA? >> THEY ARE AT THE MARINA CENTER. >> OKAY. >> I AM NOT SEEING ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE SO WE WILL MOVE PAST AUDIENCE OF MONKS. MADAM CHAIR, MY PLEASURE TO INTRODUCE GRID ALTERNATIVES TO GIVE A PRESENTATION ABOUT THE GREAT WORK THEY ARE DOING WITH THE FUTURE BUILD PROGRAM. I WILL ALLOW THEM TO INTRODUCE THEMSELVES. PLEASE TAKE IT AWAY. >> I AM HERE ON BEHALF OF GRID ALTERNATIVES. WE HAVE A PRESENTATION TO TALK ABOUT THE PARTNERSHIP WE HAVE AND HOW WE CONTINUE TO EXPAND THAT. >> I GREW UP A FEW MILES AWAY FROM HERE. THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH, IT IS NICE BEING HERE. I WILL JUMP RIGHT INTO IT AND NOT TAKE UP TOO MUCH OF YOUR TIME. WE ARE GRID ALTERNATIVES. AS FAR AS THE AGENDA, WE WILL INTRODUCE US, TALK A BIT ABOUT THE DAC-SASH PROGRAM. WE ARE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT INSTALLS NO-COST SOLAR FOR INCOME QUALIFIED FAMILIES. WE'VE BEEN DOING THIS FOR TWO DECADES NOW. OVER THE SPAN OF THIS PROGRAM WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO HELP FAMILIES INTO THE RENEWABLE FUTURE WITH LITTLE TO NO COST. THE MAJORITY OF FUNDING IN THIS AREA IS FROM THE DAC-SASH PROGRAM . YOU SEE THE MAP OF THE BAY AREA. THE AREAS THAT ARE HIGHLIGHTED IN RED ARE IN THE DAC-SASH PROGRAM. IT WAS AN OFFSPRING OF SENATE BILL 535. DAC-SASH IS DISADVANTAGE COMMUNITIES, [ INAUDIBLE ] OVERSEEN BY THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION ADMINISTERED BY US. IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH, THE VAST MAJORITY OF PITTSBURGH IS COVERED BY OUR PROGRAM. NOT ALL OF IT IS. THERE ARE A FEW FACTORS THAT MAKE YOU ELIGIBLE --INELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM. WE CAN TALK ABOUT THAT. [ INAUDIBLE ] WE DO GET FEDERAL REBATES THROUGH OUR PARTNER, SON RUN. WE HAVE SPONSORS, DONATIONS, LOCAL FUNDING, AND GRANTS. >> OVER THE LAST YEARS BEEN ABLE TO INSTALL OVER 2000 SYSTEMS IN THE GREATER BAY AREA. WE ARE REALLY PROUD OF THIS WORK. IN THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH ALONE WE'VE INSTALLED 130 SYSTEMS WHICH RESULTED IN $3.8 MILLION IN SAVINGS FROM CLIENTS. THIS ALSO INCLUDES HABITAT FOR HUMANITY PROJECT WE DID ON URBAN WHITE WAY. WE HAVE INSTALLED SOLAR ON THE PITTSBURGH LIBRARY HERE WITH FUTURE BUILD TRAINING IS GOOD OUTREACH EFFORTS INCLUDE THINGS LIKE REFERRAL BONUS FOR COMMUNITY MEMBERS, CANVASSING, POSTCARDS, TABLING OUT EVENTS LIKE PITTSBURGH EARTH DAY AND FAMILY NIGHT, AS WELL. WE HAVE ALSO DONE WITH FUTURE BUILD 31 INSTALLS ON THE PHOTO HERE YOU SEE HERB WHITE WAY. THAT WAS A HABITAT FOR HUMANITY PROJECT. HERE ARE QUOTES FROM COMMUNITY MEMBERS THAT ARE PITTSBURGH RESIDENTS THAT HAVE INSTALLED GRID ALTERNATIVES. ONE NOTES THAT THEY CANNOT RECOMMEND GRID ALTERNATIVES ENOUGH. THINGS TO THEIR TEAM I NOW HAVE A RENOVATED ROOF AND HAVE ACHIEVED ENERGY INDEPENDENCE. I'M ALSO HAPPY TO SAY WE ARE MORE GREEN THAN WE WERE BEFORE. THAT WAS FROM ANTONIO HERE IN PITTSBURGH. ANOTHER QUOTE IS AFTER ONE YEAR GRID ALTERNATIVES CONTACTED ME TO INFORM YOU OF A GRANT FOR A NEW ROOF. I WAS ACTUALLY HAPPY TO SEE MY HOME IN A NEW MOVE SINCE BEING A SINGLE PARENT WOULD'VE MADE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO AFFORD. I'M GRATEFUL TO GRID ALTERNATIVES FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE. I AM REALLY PROUD OF THE WORK WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO IN THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH, ALSO WE HAVE CURRENTLY 20 ELIGIBLE PITTSBURGH CLIENTS WHOSE PROJECTS ARE PAUSED DUE TO THE CONDITION OF THE ROOF OR THEIR MAIN SERVICE ELECTRICAL PANEL. ANOTHER COMPONENT OF OUR PROJECTS AS WE ONLY INSTALL ON ROOFS OR HOMES THAT HAVE ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT THAT IS SAFE FOR US TO DO INSTALLATION ON. A LOT OF TIMES THINGS LIKE A NEW ROOF CAN COST $10-$15,000. THOSE KINDS OF COSTS ARE PRETTY HEFTY AND A LOT OF OUR CLAIMANTS -- CLIENTS MAY NOT BE IN A SPONSOR FOR THOSE THINGS. SO WE SEE GRANTS, SPECIAL FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES TO ASSIST THEM IN BELIEVING THIS BARRIER. ESPECIALLY IN PITTSBURGH WE ARE SEEKING TO DO THAT. WE ARE REALLY EXCITED TO CONTINUING TO EXPAND OUR PARTNERSHIP WITH THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH. ONE OF THE THINGS WE ARE WORKING ON RIGHT NOW IS CREATING A COBRANDED LETTER. THIS IS ON YOU HAVE IN THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH. TO DISPLAY THE LEGITIMACY OF THE PROGRAM AND HOW WE HAVE THIS PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN US AND NOTIFY THEM ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES TO LEARN AND VERIFY INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROGRAM. ALSO AIDS IN DEMONSTRATING THE IMPACT TO PITTSBURGH RESIDENTS. WE'VE REACHED OUT TO OVER 2800 OF THEM. SOMETHING LIKE THIS AND OTHER OUTREACH EFFORTS CAN HELP TO DISPLAY TO THEM OUR PROGRAM. DEVELOP A PARTNERSHIP FURTHER. IN ADDITION WE INTEND TO HORSE --HOST A WORKSHOP THIS SUMMER. HOPING TO HOST IT EITHER HERE AT CITY HALL OR I BELIEVE THE MARINA CENTER. WE HAVE HOSTED WORKSHOPS IN THE PAST. TWO IN THESE CHAMBERS. OVER 40 ATTENDEES CAME TO THOSE. WE ARE REALLY EXCITED TO HOST SOMETHING LIKE THAT, SHARE THINGS ABOUT ENERGY EFFICIENCY CHIPS AND WE'VE ALSO INSTALLED OVER 30 SYSTEMS WITH FUTURE BUILD. INCLUDING INSTALLING SOLAR ON THE LIBRARY RIGHT ACROSS THE STREET. WE ALSO PLAN TO CALL IN THIS YEAR, UPDATING THE CITY OF PITTSBURGH WEBSITE. THERE IS A TAB DENOTING OUR PARTNERSHIP, BUT WE PLAN TO UPDATE THIS TO SHOW THE INCOME --INCOME GUIDELINE. EACH YEAR THAT THE STATE GIVES COME REQUIREMENTS. WE WILL UPDATE THAT AND ALSO SHOWCASE CURRENT INSTALLS AND CLIENT EXPERIENCES TO GIVE THAT UP TODAY INFORMATION ABOUT OUR PROGRAM. THAT IS JUST A RECAP OF WHAT WE'VE DISCUSSED TODAY. TALKED ABOUT THE IMPACT THEY'VE HAD IN THE DIRT [ INAUDIBLE ]. ALSO HOW WE PLAN TO FURTHER OUR PARTNERSHIP AND WE ARE VERY EXCITED . I'M HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. >> WHERE DID YOU GET YOUR SUPPLIES FOR THE PANELS? >> [ INAUDIBLE ] >> WHERE DID THOSE COME FROM? DO YOU KNOW? >> [ INAUDIBLE ] >> COULD YOU FIND OUT? THANK YOU. >> WHAT ABOUT THE CONDITIONS OF THESE ROOFS? IS THERE ANY LIMITATIONS YOU HAVE? >> YES. THEY ARE LOOKING TO MAINTAIN 10 YEARS OF LIFE. SO IF THE FIND OUT THERE IS NOT AT LEAST 10 YEARS REMAINING OF THEM [ INAUDIBLE ] >> THANK YOU. >> ANYONE ELSE WITH ANY QUESTIONS? >> YOU MENTIONED FOR THE FUNDING THEY COME FROM GRANTS OR FEDERAL FUNDING AND YOU ALSO MENTIONED OTHER FUNDING COMES FROM LOCAL. IS THAT BUSINESSES HERE IN PITTSBURGH? >> [ INAUDIBLE ] WE VERIFY THEY HAVE THE PROPER LICENSE TO INSTALL. STILL HAVE PEOPLE WAITING FOR FRIENDS. WE'RE LOOKING [ INAUDIBLE ] >> THANK YOU. >> I HAVE ONE LAST QUESTION, ARE THESE MANUFACTURED IN CHINA? >> THAT IS A VERY GOOD QUESTION. --QUALITY OF THE PANELS ARE VERY GOOD. ESPECIALLY NOW. >> THANK YOU. >> FOLLOWING UP ON THAT, I AM CURIOUS, YOU SAID YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO TELL. >> WHAT I HEARD FROM THE CEOs WHAT I CAN TELL YOU THAT EVERYTHING IS GOOD QUALITY. I KNOW MORE ABOUT HERE. I DON'T KNOW ABOUT CHINA, BUT I CAN FIND OUT FOR YOU IF IT'S OKAY WE CAN GIVE YOU THE INFORMATION AND PASS IT ALONG. >> I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW THAT AND IF YOU HAVE ANY DONORS FROM CHINA SPECIFICALLY INVOLVED IN GIVE YOU GUYS MONEY. I WOULD BE CURIOUS TO KNOW THAT. OR FOREIGN AT ALL. >> NO. >> FANTASTIC. THANK YOU. >> I HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS AS FAR AS YOU GUYS WORK WITH INTERNS OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. >> WE HAVE TWO TRAIN PEOPLE AND [ INAUDIBLE ] >> DO THEY HAVE TO BE A CERTAIN AGE, SAY 18, OR DO YOU WORK WITH HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS? >> [ INAUDIBLE ] >> I AM ASKING BECAUSE YOU GUYS COULD HAVE WORKSHOPS THAT THE HIGH SCHOOLS LIKE BLACK DIAMOND TO SEE IF ANY OF THE STUDENTS WERE INTERESTED IN DOING THIS KIND OF WORK. YOU KNOW, NOT EVERYONE IS ABLE TO GO TO COLLEGE. BUT LIVING WAGES REPORTED. IF WE COULD CREATE SOMETHING DIFFERENT, THAT WOULD BE EXCELLENT. IF YOU CAN FIGURE THAT OUT AND SEND THE INFORMATION WRITTEN I'LL APPRECIATE IT. >> [ INAUDIBLE ] >> THAT IS FINE. THE OTHER QUESTION I HAVE COME YOU GUYS ARE WORKING WITH FUTURE BUILD. ARE YOU JUST DOING SOLAR PROJECTS WITH THEM OR ARE YOU GUYS TRAINING YOUR PEOPLE TO DO MUCH MORE. IS IT LIKE AN INTERN TRANSFER OPERATION OF LEARNING ARE YOU SAFE, PUT UP WALL HILLS OR [ INAUDIBLE ] >> I MEAN LIKE A CROSS TRAINING. ARE YOU LEARNING HOW TO BUILD WALLS AND SOLAR. THERE IS NO CROSSTRAINING? OKAY. >> IF YOU WANTED SOMETHING NEW TO BENEFIT THE COMMUNITY. >> IT COULD BE BENEFICIAL. I THINK CROSSTRAINING IS REALLY IMPORTANT UNTIL A LOT OF DIFFERENT BUSINESSES. IF YOU GUYS CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO TRAIN AND DO INTERNSHIPS AND THINGS LIKE THAT IT WOULD BE GREAT. >> [ INAUDIBLE ] >> THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE IT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORTS AND FOR SUPPORTING THE PEOPLE OF PITTSBURGH. I APPRECIATE THAT. THANK YOU. OKAY. NEXT ON THE AGENDA WE ARE GOING TO GO TO NUMBER FOUR, COMMUNITY ADVISORY COMMISSION STANDING COMMITTEES AND SUBCOMMITTEES. SO WE CAN REVIEW THOSE. >> THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. AS YOU MENTIONED WE ARE GOING TO DO A LITTLE OVERVIEW OF THE STANDING COMMITTEES AND SUBCOMMITTEES. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE, ESPECIALLY WITH A FEW NEW FACES, THAT WE GIVE EVERYBODY THE OPPORTUNITY TO ASK QUESTIONS AND LEARN MORE ABOUT THE STANDING COMMITTEES. WE ARE NOT A SUPER FORMAL BUNCH HERE SO PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CUT ME OFF AND ASK A QUESTION. MADAM CHAIR, COMMISSIONER FERNANDEZ, IF YOU HAVE THINGS YOU CAN INTERJECT TO HELP ILLUSTRATE THE POINTS OF THESE COMMISSIONS I WOULD BE VERY MUCH INTERESTED, AS WELL.

NO PROBLEM WITH THAT. >> LET ME -- I WILL SKIP AHEAD A LITTLE BIT. SHOULD'VE HAD THIS EARLIER SO EVERYONE WOULD KNOW WHAT WE DO. WHAT I WOULD RECOMMEND AND I HAVE DISCUSSED WITH THE CHAIR BRIEFLY IS IF YOU HAVE INTEREST IN ANY OF THESE BY ALL MEANS YOU ARE FREE TO PRESENT TONIGHT. YOU CAN ALSO EMAIL THE AFTER THIS WITH THE EXCESSES OF MERGER WAS REDOING TO APPOINT FOLKS TONIGHT BECAUSE WE WILL BE HAVING THOSE MEETINGS THAT PHYLLIS ONE PRIOR TO THAT I CAC WITH THE CHERRY HER VISION A COUPLE TECHNICALLY HAVE TO BE CONFIRMED BY COUNCIL. A SIMPLY --SIMPLE CONSENT ITEM. IT IS A LITTLE FORMULAIC. AND BUREAUCRATIC. BUT WE DO BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL TO CONFIRM THESE APPOINTMENTS. MADAM CHAIR, MUCH OF ANYTHING ELSE TO ADD, WE WILL FLOW RIGHT INTO HEALTHCARE. THE REPRESENTATIVE ON HEALTHCARE SERVICES AS A LIAISON TO THE CAC AND OTHER CITY STAFF ON ONGOING MATTERS RELATED TO HEALTHCARE IN GENERAL BUT THOSE MEETINGS ARE HELD NOT BY THE CITY. -- OFTEN CANCELED IF I AM BEING HONEST. USUALLY REACH OUT TO FOLKS TO SCHEDULE AND LAZY THERE. >> I AM ON THE BOARD. USUALLY I STAY THERE BECAUSE I AM THERE SO NO ONE ELSE HAS TO GO OUT OF THEIR WAY.

IT IS -- THE OVERSIGHT BOARD ESTABLISH AS PART OF THAT BALLOT MEASURE APPROVED DECIDED THERE WILL BE A BOARD COMPRISED OF TWO MEMBERS OF THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY AS WELL AS THREE MEMBERS OF THE CAC. THEIR JOB IS TO LOOK AT AND MAKE A RECOMMENDATION TO THE COUNCIL. USUALLY A RECOMMENDATION WITHIN SIMILAR GRAVITIES I LOST THE CHAIR TO FILL IN A LITTLE BIT HERE ONCE I AM DONE, BUT THE BUCKETS THAT THESE NORMALLY GO INTO OUR PUBLIC SAFETY, A GAVE THE VALIDITY THE MOMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, RELATED TO --REALLY A BIG ONE. THIS OVERSIGHT BOARD CAN MEET MULTIPLE TIMES A YEAR, BUT REALLY IT USUALLY DOES TWO TIMES A YEAR RIGHT BEFORE BUDGET. USUALLY LATE APRIL, EARLY MAY. WE HAVE A BUDGET WORKSHOP WHICH WIFE WOULD BE COMING UP THIS COMING MONDAY WITH THE CITY COUNCIL. ONCE THE CITY COUNCIL GOES THROUGH THAT THERE IS USUALLY A SALE READING WHERE LETTER M SETS UP --THOSE WERE DISCUSSED AND ULTIMATELY THAT IS WHERE THOSE FUNDS AND OUT. I WILL BE GOOD FOR YOU. USUALLY ACCEPTANCE OF THE RECOMMENDATION OR A BIT OF GUIDANCE. THIS OVERSIGHT BOARD IS DIRECTLY WENT VERY WELL WITH THE CITY COUNCIL IS HOLDER TO GOING TO SEE THROUGHOUT THE CITY MORE SIGNS POPPING UP SHOWING WHAT THE MEASURES AND DOLLARS ARE GOING FOR. WITH THAT, MADAM CHAIR, PLEASE ADD A -- >> [ INAUDIBLE ] THEY WILL COME TO MEASURE A MEETING AND THEY HAVE PROJECTS OR THINGS THAT OR ALLOWED UNDER THIS MEASURE. SO WE REVIEW AND SEE HOW THEY GO SHOULD WE GIVE THE TOTAL DOLLAR [ INAUDIBLE ] AND THEY WE JUST DETERMINE WHAT DOLLARS SHOULD GO WHERE. WHAT IS IMPORTANT. MOST OF THE TIME WE HAVE MORE THAN ENOUGH EVERYONE NORMALLY GETS WHAT THEY NEED. BUT IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU HAVE, [ INAUDIBLE ] IF WE BUY THIS DRONE HOW MANY YEARS WILL IT LAST? IS IT WORTH THE MONEY? HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL USE THIS DRONE. IS ONLY ONE PERSON CLICH?D OR THE LIKE SEVEN PEOPLE. IS IT WORTH THE MONEY. LOOK AT THE FUTURE. BECAUSE MONEY DOES OF US ALL IS ALWAYS UP TO TRY TO LOOK AT THE BROADER PICTURE. >> DOES IT ENCOMPASS THE NATIONAL GUARD, AS WELL. >> KNOW. >> TO DOVETAIL ON THAT, GIVE A GREAT EXAMPLE RELATED TO PUBLIC SAFETY. ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WE GET A SMALLER PORTION OF THE FLY DETERMINED OR ALLEYS RAV4 BY THE CITY COUNCIL AND GENERALLY TRY TO KEEP THAT GOING FORWARD. BUT I WOULD COME TO REALLY NOT JUST FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT. WANT TO ENSURE WE HAVE PEOPLE OUT THERE -- ADDITIONAL BANDWIDTH. RECOMMENDING THIS LUNCH GO TOWARDS DATASHARING. THIS IS SUCH. LEGAL WORDS FOLLOWING OUR RETURN FOR TRYING TO OF THE OVARY ARE AVAILABLE -- SOMETIMES IT IS AS SIMPLE AS US TO QUESTION THOSE PROJECTS AND SAY WE DON'T REALLY KNOW THAT IS WHAT WE ARE HEARING FROM THE BUSINESS COMMUNITY.

QUITE A FEW OF US, BUSINESS OWNERS, POLICE DEPARTMENT, REC DEPARTMENT, SENIOR DEPARTMENT, ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

AS A DON'T HAVE THE STRUT --SET DATE WE WORK AS FAR RECASTS THE PUBLIC SAFETY SUBCOMMITTEE, BEFORE I GO ANY FURTHER I ALSO WANT TO POINT OUT, PLEASE USE ME, THE REST OF STAFF AS A RESOURCE. IF YOU DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT A TOPIC THEN YOU HAVE AN INTEREST THAT IS PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING BECAUSE WHAT WE REALLY WANT TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE ENGAGEMENT IN THOSE MEETINGS. I AM HERE. I'LL --JUST BECAUSE IT MIGHT NOT BE SOMETHING YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH IF YOU HAVE AN INTEREST WE WILL EXERT THAT WE ARE REVOKES REVIEWS OF THE THE PUBLIC SAFETY COMMITTEE REVIEWS AND PROVIDE FEEDBACK TO CITY STAFF AND THE POLICE DEPARTMENT ON PUBLIC SAFETY MATTERS. THIS IS EVERYTHING FROM LEARNING ABOUT CHANGES IN STATE LAW THAT AFFECT HOW MEN AND WOMEN IN BLUE FUNCTION OUT THERE IN THE FIELD. IT WAS A MAYOR RIGHT NOT DO.

IT LOOKS LIKE STEIN --CRIME STATISTICS AND OTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO ENHANCE OUR LIVES AND I WENT INCLUDING MENTAL HEALTH AWARENESS AND OTHER THINGS.

THAT BECOMES ONE OF THE DISCUSSION THAN SAYING LIKE, HEY, I AM REPORTING ON SOMETHING WHICH YOU ARE WELCOME TO DO. ALSO WELCOME TO CONTACT ME DIRECTLY IF IT IS KIND OF A ONE-OFF THING. >> IN THAT SPIRIT WHAT ARE THE REGULATIONS? FOR THE NOISE? THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT YOU CANNOT AT ANY TIME OF THE DAY PRODUCE NOISE THAT EXCEEDS THE BOUNDARY OF YOUR PROPERTY LINE. REALISTICALLY BILL PEOPLE HAVE MUSIC AND THE PARTIES AND IT IS GOING TO BE AUDIBLE FROM A NEIGHBORING PROPERTY. HOWEVER, THE CIVIL CODE, NOISE TO --THAT IS NOT CONSTRUCTION, THAT -- PLEASE DON'T DO IT PUBLICLY, BUT YOU ARE MORE THAN WELCOME TO GIVE AN ADDRESS OFF-LINE AND WE WILL MAKE SURE WE HANDLE THAT IS NECESSARY. >> WHERE IF YOU DRIVE DOWN THE STREET AND SEE SOMEONE OPENED A RESTAURANT IN THEIR HOUSE, SELLING FOOD OUT OF THE GARAGE AND IT IS BECOMING A NUISANCE BECAUSE ALL THE CAUSE OF WALKING THE STREET.
