IN THE FACT.
YOU WOULD.
IDENTIFY YOURSELVES FOR THE
RECORD STARTING AT THE TABLE
STARTING TO MY LEFT YOU'RE RIGHT
SIR.
MORNING BY.
YEAH.
CHEN THANK YOU FOR JOINING US.
YOU
AND MY NAME IS STILL LISA SWAN
AGAIN DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF
ADMINISTRATION WITH DEVIATES.
FOR ALL JEFF FOR JOINING US OKAY
WHO WANTS TO PERCENT I WILL
GIVE.
CAN YOU UP SO THE DEPARTMENT
FAIR EMPLOYMENT AND HOUSING
RECEIVES ABOUT TWENTY THREE
THOUSAND COMPLAINTS OF
DISCRIMINATION SEXUAL HARASSMENT
AND OTHER ALLEGATIONS.
OF VIOLATIONS OF OUR LAWS EVERY
YEAR. UP THROUGH WORK SHARING
AGREEMENTS WITH THE FEDERAL
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND URBAN
DEVELOPMENT. AN EQUAL EMPLOYMENT
OPPORTUNITY COMMISSION. UP
THEY'VE REIMBURSE US OR GIVE US
MONEY FOR THE CASES THAT WE
INVESTIGATE.
THAT ALSO ALLEGED VIOLATIONS OF
FEDERAL LAW IN ADDITION TO STATE
LAW.
THERE'S A DIFFERENCE IN THE
AMOUNT OF FEDERAL FUNDING THAT
WE GET.
AND THE AMOUNT OF FEDERAL
FUNDING THAT'S IN OUR BUDGET.
SO WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO DO IS
TAKE A POSITION THAT'S FUNDED
OUT OF THE FEDERAL TRUST FUNDS.
THAT WE HAVE TO HOLD VACANT
BECAUSE OF THIS DIFFERENCE IN
FUNDING.
AND MOVE IT OVER INTO OUR
LITIGATION TRUST FUND WHICH IS A
FUND THAT WAS CREATED WHERE WHEN
WE'VE LITIGATED CASES SETTLE THE
CASE. OUR ATTORNEY FEES GO INTO
THE TRUST FUND AND THEN THE
MONIES IN THE TRUST AND CAN BE
USED TO SUPPORT. OUR LITIGATION
OF THESE CASES SO WE'D LIKE TO.
MOVE THAT POSITION INTO THE
LITIGATION TRUST FUND.
AND THAT HAVE A AND AN
ADDITIONAL ATTORNEY POSITION TO.
UP PURSUE WHAT WE CALL SYSTEMIC
LITIGATION CASES SO THESE ARE.
CASES THAT BASICALLY IMPACT
A LARGE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THEY
GENERALLY DON'T STEM FROM AN
INDIVIDUAL COMPLAINT THAT'S BEEN
FILED WITH US BUT THERE.
SOMETHING WHERE SOMETHING HAS
COME TO LIGHT WHERE WE SORT OF
REASONABLY BELIEVE IF THERE SOME
DISCRIMINATION OCCURRING AND
THEN WE PURSUE IT.
PATTERN PRACTICE CASE YES
SO YOU CITED EXAMPLE ONE.
SURE SO I'M LAST YEAR WE FILED
WHAT WE CALL A DIRECTORS
COMPLAINTS THAT WE DID NOT HAVE
AN UNDERLYING COMPLAINT BUT
UNDER THE AUSPICES OF ARE
DIRECTOR WE FILED A COMPLAINT
AGAINST AIRBNB.
BECAUSE THERE HAD BEEN SOME
STUDIES THAT SHOWED THAT THERE
WAS DISCRIMINATION AGAINST
AFRICAN AMERICANS BY SOME HOSTS.
WE ENDED UP NEGOTIATING WITH
AIRBNB AND SETTLING THE CASE AND
UNDER THE TERMS OF THE
SETTLEMENT. BASICALLY WHAT WE
NOW ARE ABLE TO GO OUT AND TEST
DO TESTING ON THE SITE BY
CREATING PROFILES AND SEEM LIKE.
DEPENDING ON ARE CHARACTERISTICS
WHETHER OR NOT YOU KNOW WE'RE
WE'RE RECEIVING RENTALS.
ALSO UNDER THE TERMS OF THE
AGREEMENT. IF SOMEBODY COMPLAINS
TO AIRBNB THAT THEY THINK
THEY'VE BEEN DISCRIMINATED
AGAINST AIRBNB WILL TELL THEM.
THAT THEY HAVE THE RIGHT TO FILE
A COMPLAINT WITH US AND SO WE
CAN. INVESTIGATE THAT COMPLAINT
AND THEN AIRBNB ALSO OF REPORTS
TO US THEY COLLECT THEIR OWN
METRICS AND REPORT THOSE TO US.
SO THAT WOULD BE AN EXAMPLE WE
HAVE MANY MORE.
AS WELL AS ANOTHER EXAMPLE WOULD
BE IF A.
IF A LARGE CORPORATONS HIRING
PRACTICES
TENDED TO EXCLUDE A.
A CERTAIN CATEGORY OF APPLICANTS
WOULD THAT BE ONE OF YOUR SYSTEM
SALUTE TYPES OF CASES AND YOUR
YOUR CASE WORKER AND YOUR
LITIGATION WORK OUR AGENDA
REFLECTS.
GENERATES A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF.
MONEY IN TERMS OF ATTORNEYS FEES
THAT GO INTO THIS COUNT
ABSOLUTELY AND WE BELIEVE
THEY'RE SUFFICIENT FUNDING IN
THIS ACCOUNT ON AN ONGOING
BASIS.
TO SUPPORT THIS POSITION AS WELL
AS FORTY THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS
AND SORT OF ASSOCIATED EXPENSES
FOR EXPERT WITNESSES THAT KIND
OF THING AND THE AMOUNT OF MONEY
IN THE FUND IN THE ATTORNEY'S
FEE FUND DATES ABOUT ONE POINT
SEVEN MILLION.
I DON'T THINK IT'S. FINE RIGHT
NOW. MY THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING
ELSE.
IT IS.
WELL ARE GENERALLY SPECIFIC
SEVERAL THESE CASES RESULT IN AN
AWARD OF ATTORNEY'S FEES TO
DEVIATE FROM THE AMOUNT OF
NEARLY ONE POINT YEAH WE'VE HAD
VERY LARGE AWARDS IN THE PAST
AND THIS. THIS HAVING THIS
POSITION WILL GENERATE
ADDITIONAL ATTORNEY FEES SO WHAT
PERCENTAGE OF THE COMPLAINT
INVESTIGATIONS.
INDUCT.
.
ARE YOU ALSO INVESTIGATING.
FEDERAL E. UC'S REQUEST FEDERAL
COMPLAINTS.
SO I'M I WAS CURIOUS YEAH IT'S
ABOUT.
PEOPLE A REAL.
I AM SO ABOUT FORTY FIFTY
PERCENT OF OUR EMPLOYMENT CASES
ARE WHAT WE CALL DUAL FILED SO.
BOTH E. E. O. C. AND US AND
ABOUT FORTY PERCENT OF OUR
HOUSING CASES.
IT'S ALWAYS NICE TO SEE THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PAYING US FOR
DOING THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT'S
JOB NOW DOESN'T ALWAYS HAPPEN.

ROSS BROWN WITH ALEJO.

SOME MODIFICATIONS SO.

COMMENTS BRIEF YOU'RE SLIDING
DOWNHILL NOT.
SO YOU DON'T WANT THEM TO BE
BRIEF YOU COULD BE AS BRIEF LA.
FLINTRIDGE YEAR YEAH.

TO HELP THE STATE MEET ITS
ENERGY EFFICIENCY GOALS BY
LEVERAGING PRIVATE CAPITAL.

ASKING FOR REIMBURSEMENT
EXPENDITURE AUTHORITY TO ALIGN

RECOMMENDATION.
STEPH HAS ALIGNED ITSELF WITH
YOUR COMMENTS BUT LET'S SEE IF

YEAH SO THE AGENDA LAYS OUR OUR
RECOMMENDATION IN SHORT WERE
RECOMMENDING MODIFYING THIS ONE
TIME EIGHT POINT TWO MILLION
DOLLAR APPROPRIATION INSTEAD.
SPREADING IT OUT OVER THREE.
SPECIFIC APPROPRIATIONS OVER
THE NEXT THREE YEARS IN A WAY
THAT'S CONSISTENT WITH THE
ESTIMATED SPENDING IN EACH OF
THOSE THREE YEARS.
IT'S MORE CONSISTENT WITH A
TYPICAL BUDGETING FOR MULTI YEAR
REQUESTS HELPS MAINTAIN
ADDITIONAL LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT
IN CASE A LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES
CHANGE.
WE DO RECOGNIZE THERE'S
UNCERTAINTY AROUND.
TIMELINES FOR AND THEN IN THE
PILOT AND SO WE'RE ALSO
RECOMMENDING

NINETEEN.
AND WITHOUT IT OUT A RAPID AT
HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS
THAT.
MEDINA HALF WERE NOT TO. TAKE
AWAY FROM MY COLLEAGUES
QUESTIONS BECAUSE
THEY INDICATED THEY HAVE SOME
JUST OF.
TO ASK A COUPLE OF MORE MAKE A
COUPLE POINTS THAT MAYBE YOU
COULD
SORT OF.
HIT THE HIGHLIGHTS SHARE ON OPEN
WHEN I WHEN WE LAST SPOKE HERE.
I SEEM TO RECALL THERE WAS A
DISCUSSION ABOUT THE WHOLE OPT
IN OPT OUT. THERE WERE SOME
ISSUES HAVING TO DO WITH THE. OF
FEDERAL PREEMPTION BY THE
RETIREMENT INCOME.
SOMETHING SECURITY ACTIVE
SEVENTY FOR A RESERVE THAT.
AND THERE WAS SO WHETHER THIS
PARTICULARPLAN QUALIFIED FOR A
SAFE HARBOR.
THAT WAS PURSUANT TO AN OPINION
ISSUED BY THE U. S. DEAL WELL.
FLAVOR OF.
THAT WAS.
SHORT OF TEETERING ON THE BRINK
OF NOT BEING THERE ARE BEING
THERE.
AND.
JUST TO SET THE STAGE IN MY
CORRECT AS TO WHERE WE WERE WHEN
WE LAST SPOKE THAT IS WHERE WE
WHERE I SUSPECT TIME LAST WEEK'S
MAY HAVE SOME QUESTIONS ON THOSE
POINTS OR SOME OTHER SO WHEN I
TURNED. THE
FLOOR AND THE DAIS OVER TO THEM
CENTER GLAZER.
I THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR.
SO.
.
IN ADDITION TO THE OF THE
QUESTION THAT THE CHAIR HAS
REYES I'M ALSO INTERESTED IN AND
UNDERSTANDING AB THIS FROM OUR
STAFF BUT.
A WE TOOK SOME BUDGETARY ACTION
LAST YEAR THAT WE SPENT A LOT OF
TIME TALKING ABOUT. TERMS OF THE
NEEDS AND REQUIREMENTS OF IT I I
DON'T SEE A SUMMARY OF THAT HERE
AND I'M INTERESTED IN.
HAVE IN THAT BE REVIEWED AS
WELL.
OKAY. THANK YOU FOR THE
QUESTIONS.
ME NON LAW ONCE IN LINE.
OKAY SO TAKE THE FIRST QUESTION
FIRST ON ON THOSE SORT OF
FEDERAL ISSUES. AYE IN MAY OF
LAST YEAR.
PRESIDENT TRUMP
SIGNS A. LOT REPEAL KIND
CONGRESSIONAL REPEAL OF THE
OBAMA ERA DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
RULE THAT WOULD HAVE AND
BASICALLY MADE MADE AT IT X.
EXTRA EXPLICIT CLEAR. ON THAT
THE EXISTING NINETEEN SEVENTY
FIVE SAFE HARBOR FOR MARISSA
APPLIED TO BE STATE SPONSORED
RETIREMENT SAVINGS PROGRAMS.
SO HILE THE THE TWENTY SXTEEN
RULE WOULD HAVE BEEN. NICE TO
HAVE BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE MADE
IT EXPLICITLY CLEAR THAT THE
EXISTING RULE APPLIES TO THESE
NEW PROGRAMS.
ALL OF OUR INTERNAL AND OUT
EXTERNAL COUNSEL HAS ADVISED
THAT WE WE DIDN'T NEED IT AND
THAT WE ARE STILL ON VERY SOLID
LEGAL FOOTING WITH THE NINETEEN
SEVENTY FIVE SAFE HARBOR. WHICH
INCLUDES A.
ATTESTS A FOUR PRONGED TEST
ON TO DEFINE WHETHER.
AT THE RETIREMENT SAVINGS
PROGRAM IS EMPLOYER SPONSORED OR
NOT.
SO YOU KNOW ALL THE PREEMINENT
PARRIS A.
.
LEGAL EXPERTS IN THE COUNTRY
WORK FOR US AND HAVE YOU KNOW
HAVE OPINED THAT.
.
THAT THE CAL SABRES PROGRAM IN
THAT ALL OF OUR SORT OF SISTER
PROGRAMS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY
ARE ON SOLID LEGAL FOOTING HAVE.
BEING.
ONCE A LAWYER.
HAVE THEY ISSUED WHAT.
CALL IN THE LAW AND IS A TERM OF
ART A LEGAL OPINION CAN'T AFFECT
YES.
AND THAT WAS DONE PRODUCE VERY
SHORT LAST MAKES VERY SHORTLY
AFTER THE REPEAL.
IN THE TREASURER AND SENATOR
DELEON.
.
INSISTED THAT WE HAVE THAT
BEFORE WE PROCEED WITH
IMPLEMENTATION.
YES OKAY SO THAT ON THE THAT IN
THAT GO WITH THE OPT IN OPT OUT.
YET SO OPEN AND THAT'S A GREAT
QUESTION I AND ONE ONE OF THE
WAYS IN WHICH ARE THE CALIFORNIA
STATUTE IS DIFFERENT FROM THE
OTHER TWO STATES THAT HAVE
PRECEDED THEM THAT'S OREGON AND
ILLINOIS. IS THAT WE ARE WE ARE
AN OPT OUT TO NO AUTOMATIC
ENROLLMENT OPT OUT PROGRAM THAT
WE HAVE. A AS FEATURED TECHNICAL
FEATURE IN OUR STATUTE THAT
REQUIRES THAT EMPLOYEES
ACKNOWLEDGE HAVING RECEIVED THE
DISCLOSURE PACKET.
AND IT'S IT'S WRITTEN AND THE
WAY THEY.
LEAVE SOME ROOM FOR
INTERPRETATION ON HOW YOU CAN
OPERATIONALIZE THAT
ACKNOWLEDGMENT REQUIREMENT BUT
THAT IS WHAT WE SPENT TIME.
LAST YEAR MISTER CHAIRMAN
TALKING ABOUT IN THIS SETTING SO
ON ON THE ONE HAND IT IT
COMPLICATES OUR. ENROLLMENT
PROCESS A LITTLE BIT IT ADDS A A
STEP BUT ON THE OTHER HAND I
THINK IT.
PLEASES US TO BE IN A BETTER
POSITION AND IF ANYONE WANTS.
TO CHALLENGE THE VOLUNTARY
NATURE OF OUR OF OUR PROGRAM
HERE AND THAT WOULD GET INTO A
RESEARCH ISSUES SO I THINK WHILE
IT COMPLICATES MATTERS A LITTLE
BIT AND IT MAKES.
.
OUR OUR OUR JOB TO AND HAVE
HIGH PARTICIPATION MAKES A
LITTLE BIT HARDER.
I THINK IT IT.
PUTS US IN A BETTER POSITION.
ON ON THIS POINT.
.
KEEP IN MIND I'M I'M VERY
SUPPORTIVE OF WHAT THE PROGRAM
IS TRYING TO DO.
AND MY CONCERN LAST YEAR AND
THIS YEAR IS ONLY THAT.
THAT WE WE FOR SPENDING MONEY OR
LOANING MONEY.
THAT WE HAVE.
.
A REASONABLE DEGREE OF
CONFIDENCE THAT YOU KNOW IT'S
ALL GOING TO WORK.
YEAH.
AND SO I GUESS I'D ASK WHETHER
OR NOT TO HAVE MISTER CHAIRMAN
WE'VE HAD ANY KIND OF THIRD
PARTY REVIEW OF.
AFTER WORK I THAT THEY HAVE PUT
IN THE LEGAL OPINION THAT'S BEEN
ISSUED SO THAT
WE CAN GET CONFIRMATION FROM OUR
SIDE THAT. THAT ADDED EVERYTHING
IS IN ORDER AS THEY PROCEED I
RECOGNIZE THIS IS YOU KNOW IT'S
A UNIQUE PROGRAM IT AND THERE
ISN'T A LOT OF PRECEDENT.
BUT.
GIVEN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE.
ADMINISTRATION IN WASHINGTON.
I THINK WE HAVE TO BE CAREFUL TO
MAKE SURE THAT EVERYTHING IS
BEING DONE. TO THE BEST OF OUR
ABILITY SO THAT IT CAN BE
SUSTAINABLE AND THAT OUR MONEY.
IT'S GOING TO BE IS TO WELL.
WELL I I I HEARD.
SOME ASSURANCES FROM THIS LIST
GIVEN THAT YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO
ADDRESS.
CENTER GLAZERS QUESTION YEAHI
WOULD I WOULD AND TWO THINGS I
GUESS AN ANSWER TO THAT. SENATOR
GLAZER ON. ONE THE ALL OF THE
STATE'S THE SMALL HANDFUL OF
STATES THAT ARE EITHER
IMPLEMENTING.
A SECURE CHOI STYLE PLAN OR
PLANNING TO DO THAT.
TRAVEL THE DC RECENTLY AND MET
WITH.
.
THE SECRETARY OF LABOR SECRETARY
ACOSTA TALKED ABOUT THESE
PLANTS.
HOW THAT I?
AN OPEN CORDIAL CONVERSATION AND
AND AS A RESULT OF THAT NOTHING.
.
WE WERE IN THE GROUP WAS NOT
ALARMED AS A RESULT OF ANYTHING
THAT HAPPENED IN THAT
CONVERSATION.
AGAIN IT BUT WHAT IS IT ON OUR
SIDE AGAIN I THAT MISTER
CHAIRMAN THAT GIVES US WE HAVE
OUR OWN RESPONSIBILITY TO DO IT
DUE DILIGENCE HERE AND I
APPRECIATE YOURS.
BUT WHAT OVERSIGHT HAVE WE
PROVIDED AND AND THE AND THE
WORK AND THE CONCLUSIONS THAT
YOU'VE REACHED.
AND MAY NOT BE A QUESTION FOR
YOU MAYBE A QUESTION FOR OTHERS
WELL I I'LL ADDRESS THE ONE
LEGAL P..
UNLESS IT'S CHANGED IN.
CHEERS.
STOP DOING THIS
I ASKED MY QUESTION ABOUT THE
LEGAL OPINION.
FOR A SPECIFIC REASON IT IS A
TERM OF ART YOU HAVE NO LAWYER
OR LAW FIRM WHO ISSUES A LEGAL
OPINION HAS TO COMPLY WAS VERY.
RESTRICTIVE GUIDELINES THE
AMERICAN BAR ASSOCIATION IN OUR
OWN.
CALIFORNIA. BAR ORGANIZATIONS.
PUT OUT AND WHEN A LEGAL OPINION
OPINION IS ISSUED EACH ISSUED
FOR THE EXPRESS PURPOSE OF.
HAVING THE RECIPIENT RELY ON IT.
AND SO WHAT YOU HAVE HERE IS YOU
HAVE LAWYERS WHO HAVE
ESSENTIALLY PUT THEIR
MALPRACTICE POLICY. ON THE LINE
IN ISSUING THE LEGAL OPINION.
NOW I DON'T KNOW.
HOW DO WE ASSESS THAT RISK
AND I'M PROBABLY GLAD I'M NOT
THE LAW FIRM THAT DID THAT BUT
THAT'S A VERY SERIOUS STEM AND
IF THAT'S WHAT WE HAVE?
OBTAINED THEN THERE IS A CERTAIN
DEGREE OF ASSURANCE THERE.
THAT.
A LAWYER.
WITHTHE MALPRACTICE POLICY
BACKING THE LAW FIRM UP HAS
REVIEWED THE SITUATION AND IS
DETERMINED THAT THE STRUCTURE.
OF SECURE CHOICE AS AS IT HAS
BEEN MODIFIED ASSUME.
MEETS NOT ONLY WHAT THE.
OBAMACARE RULES ALLOWED BUT THE
NINETEEN SEVENTY FIVE.
POSITION.
OF THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR AND
EVERYBODY ELSE UNDER ARREST IS
THAT THAT'S CORRECT.
SO. BEYOND THAT I DON'T KNOW
HOW.
HOW TO ANSWER THE QUESTION FROM
MY PERSPECTIVE AND IF YOU IF WE
NEED MORE INFORMATION THAN I
CERTAINLY RESPECT THAT? WELL I
JUST SHUT MISTER CHAIR I I
APPRECIATE YOUR EXPERTISE IS
JUST THAT. WE HAVEN'T SEEN THE
OPINION.
OUR LEDGER LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL
HASN'T SEEN THE OPINION WE HAVE
NO INDEPENDENT REVIEW AND SO
JUST AS WE HAVE THE ANALYSTS.
REVIEW A LOT OF THE FINANCIAL
NUMBERS THAT COME FROM FINANCING
FROM THE ADMINISTRATION.
WHERE IS OUR OWN INDEPENDENT
OVERSIGHT OVER THAT COULD WORK
AND I'M SURE IT IS GOOD WORK?
SO THAT THAT REMAINS A QUESTION
FOR ME I WOULD BE MORE THAN
HAPPY TO PROVIDE THAT WE RELEASE
THAT PUBLICLY LAST MAN I WILL
SEND THAT.
THEY AND OTHER LOT IS THE LAW
FIRM THAT DID IT CAN ALL GATES.
SO I THINK THAT.
IT SEEMS LIKE A PRUDENT STEP TO
HAVE SOME MONEY FROM OUR OUR
SIDE DO US. TO REVIEW AND AGAIN
I KNOW ENOUGH TYPICALLY DOES
THAT WOULD THAT BE LEDGE
COUNCIL.
OR SOMEONE ELSE I DON'T REALLY
KNOW WE CAN SORT THAT OUT I
WE'RE CERTAINLY I MEAN WE
CERTAINLY CAPABLE AND AND CAN.
HOLD THIS ITEM OPEN.
FOR ADDITIONAL INFORMATION TO BE
PROVIDED TO.
TO TO ANYONE ON THE
SUBCOMMITTEE.
WHO WHO WANTS TO RECEIVE IT AND
SO WOULD IT BE POSSIBLE TO
PROVIDE? OF BUDGET STAFF WITH
THE INFORMATION IN THE BACK UP
OF THAT SORT OF SUCH.
IN YOUR MIND.
.
ANYWAY SOLIDIFIES THE LEGAL
POSITION OF SECURE CHOICE MOVING
FORWARD I UNDERSTAND MY
COLLEAGUES CONCERN.
WELL IT'S A TWO POINT FIVE
MILLION DOLLAR LOAN AS OPPOSED
TO A GRANTED STILL ALONE OF TWO
POINT FIVE MILLION THAT.
WE WOULD CERTAINLY EXPECT TO GET
BACK AT SOME POINT TIME SO IT'S
NOT UNREASONABLE TO.
FOR MY COLLEAGUES TO WANT TO BE
ASSURED THAT THIS IS ON FIRM
LEGAL FOOTING BEFORE VOTING FOR
THAT OKAY THAT I'D APPRECIATE
THAT MISTER SHARON AND. AND FIVE
WE ARE GOING TO BRING THE I AM
BACK IT WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE A
FULL REVIEW OF WHAT WE DID
APPROVE.
WHICH I KNOW YOU'RE GONNA GET
TO NEXT AND
WELL WE CAN DEFER THAT IF YOU
WISH FOR YOU CAN SUMMARIZE.
THE EXPENDITURES THAT WE MADE
LAST YEAR.
SURE AND I WILL JUST MAKE ONE
MORE POINT ON THE LEGAL
QUESTION.
WE TAKE IT IS ENCOURAGING THAT
THE STATE OF OREGON WHICH IS A
LITTLE BIT AHEAD OF US IN
IMPLEMENTATION HAS BEEN OPEN FOR
SIX MONTHS.
HAS TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND
PARTICIPANTS AND. I THINK
APPROACHING TWO MILLION DOLLARS
IN SAVINGS AND THEY HAVE NOT.
THEIRS THEY'VE NOT INCURRED
LITIGATION.
SO GREAT AND NOTHING THAT YOU'RE
AWARE OF THAT THAT IT RIVER
INVOLVES ANSWERING THIS QUESTION
SLOWS DOWN OUR PROGRAM ANYWAY.
CORRECT
THAT'S CORRECT OKAY SO I'M HAPPY
TO HEAR THAT AND AND THEN CAN
YOU JUST SUMMARIZE AGAIN WHAT
WHAT EXPENDITURES WE MADE LAST
YEAR YES.
MOMENT.
SO WE ARE AS OF THE END OF
JANUARY. AND WE HAVE SPENT SO.
APPROXIMATELY SEVEN HUNDRED
THOUSAND.
SO MUCH MUCH MUCH LOWER THAN
THE FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLAR. LOAN
THAT YOU GRANTED.
I THAT IS WHAT WE DID LAST YEAR
WE GRANTED THIRTEEN BILLION
DOLLAR LOAN TO GET THE BASELINE
YES YES OF OF HOW IT WOULD HAVE
TO SPEND SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND.
AND SO THAT THE MAJORITY OF
THAT.
IS IS STAFF AND CONSULTANTS.
WE HAVE A GENERAL PROGRAM
CONSULTANT THAT HELPS ADVISE A
STRATEGICALLY ON ON EVERYTHING
FROM PROCUREMENTS FOR
CONTRACTORS TO REGULATIONS AND
PROGRAM DESIGN.
AND THEN WE HAVE HIRED
INVESTMENT CONSULTANTS.
AND TO HELP THE BOARD ESTABLISH
ITS INVESTMENT POLICY STATEMENT
AND INVESTMENT OPTIONS.
WE HAVE OUR OUTSIDE COUNSEL
CANNOT GATES.
THOSE ARE THE MAIN CONSULTANTS
RIGHT NOW THE BIG TO JUSTIN JUST
DIDN'T GIVE YOU A PREVIEW OF
WHAT'S COMING FOR AS SOON AS
THAT THE BIG CONTRACT IS WITH
WILL BE WITH THE FOR THE
FINANCIAL FIRMS THAT WILL RUN.
ACCOUNTS AND MANAGE THE
INVESTMENTS
FOR THE PROGRAM AYE WE CALL THAT
A THIRD PARTY ADMINISTRATOR
GREAT AND SO I WOULD HAVE STAFF
THROUGH GONNA BRING THIS BACK
MISTER HERE TO. SUMMARIZE THE
FIFTEEN BILLION THAT WE DID LAST
YEAR AND ALSO LOOK FORWARD TO
THE BIG CONTRACT THAT.
WHICH IS A ZERO DOLLAR CONTRACT.
IT'S BECAUSE BECAUSE IT SAT PAID
FOR BY FEES ON PURCHASES.
THEY'RE NOT BUT I WOULD STILL
LIKE TO TAKE ON THAT
RESPONSIBILITY IS.
AS THE OF THESE PARTICIPANTS
ARE GOING TO BE ABLE TO MAYBE
ASK THE QUESTIONS WE MIGHT SO
SIR LEAPT OUT AT SUNRISE WHEN IT
COMES.
THEY SO IF YOU CAN GET THE
INFORMATION REQUESTED TO BUDGET
DEFICIT AS POSSIBLE THE INTENT
MY INTENT WOULD BE TO BRING THIS
BACK.
AT.
THE NEXT
MEETING OF THIS BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE JUST
SO YOU CAN MOVE ALONG WITH THIS
IF THAT'S THE DESIRE OF MY
COLLEAGUES.
AND THAT WOULD BE AFTER THE
SPRING RECESS.
SO YOU'LL HAVE A COUPLE WEEKS
WHICH IS THAT'S NOT. DESPERATE
AND THEN WE'LL EE HOW LONG IT
TAKES STEPS. DO THE ANALYSIS
WE NEED TO THIS WON'T HOLD UP
ANYTHING IN THIS EARLY FOR YOU.
PERFECT.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS ANY PUBLIC
COMMENT ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM
SECURE CHOICE.
SEEING NONE THANK YOU FOR
JOINING LIKE YOU AND LOOK
FORWARD TO SEEING YOU IN A
COUPLE WEEKS.
I THINK THAT WRAPS UP OUR.
VOTE ITEMS.
TO BE CORRECTED BY STAFF.
AND WITH THAT WE'RE GOING TO
RETURN TO PART A OF OUR AGENDA
AND WE WILL RETURN TO ITEM TWO
TWO FOUR ZERO DEPARTMENT OF
HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT ISSUED NUMBER ONE.
THE LEGISLATIVE PROPOSAL OFFICE
OF HOMELESS USE.
AND I APOLOGIZE TO MY COLLEAGUES
CENTER WIENER IN ASSEMBLY MEMBER
RUBIO.
BUT THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH I MISTER
CHAIRMAN COLLEAGUES FOR US.
ALLOWING US THE OPPORTUNITY
TODAY TO TALK ABOUT.
DISAPPOINTED ITEM.
SPECIFICALLY.
A SIXTY MILLION.
DOLLAR.
I ASK GOD TO ONLY HRM ONLY
SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS I THINK
COMPARED TO SOME OF THE OTHER
HOUSE WE'RE PRIVILEGED TO HAVE
THE HOUSING GURUS. THANK THANK
YOU YOU AND YOU TO.
THANK YOU.
BUT I AYE WE ARE.
I ASKING FOR US SIXTY MILLION
DOLLARS IN THE BUDGET.
TO FIND I'VE SERVICES FOR
HOMELESS YOUTH
I'VE SPECIFICALLY ON
ACCOMPANIED.
HOMELESS YOUTH.
THIS IS.
AND ISSUE THAT FOR ME IS I.
I'VE BEEN WITH FOR A LONG TIME
BACK TO WHEN I WAS ON THE SAN
FRANCISCO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
REPRESENTING AMONG OTHER
NEIGHBORHOODS THE CASTRO WHERE I
LIVE.
WHERE WE HAVE?
JUST.
A SIGNIFICANT NUMBER OF OUR
YOUNG PEOPLE LIVING ON OUR
STREETS AYE AND IT SEEMS THAT
THERE'S ALWAYS NEW.
YOUNG PEOPLE OR TEENAGERS.
ACT KIDS IN THEIR LATE TEENS
EARLY TWENTIES WHO WERE ON OUR
STREETS AYE AND LOCALLY I WORKED
VERY HARD OUGHT TO TRY TO. MAKE
SURE WE HIDE OUR HOUSING FOR
THESE KIDS TRY TO GET THESE KIDS
OFF THE STREETS.
I AND WE NEED TO TAKE A LOT OF
THIS WORK ARE STATEWIDE.
WE HAVE.
AN ALARMING NUMBER AND A
GROWING NUMBER OF HOMELESS YOUTH
ON OUR STREETS AND TO BE CLEAR
THESE ARE YOUTH WERE
UNACCOMPANIED WE ALSO HAVE A
SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM WITH
HOMELESS YOUTH. WHO ARE WITH
THEIR PARENTS OF FAMILY
HOMELESSNESS AYE THAT IS AND IT
BETTER ASTRONOMICAL LEVEL IN
TERMS OF FAMILIES LIVING ON THE
STREETS BUT AT LEAST THOSE KIDS?
IV MAY NOT HAVE A HOME AND WE
NEED TO GET THEM HOME BUT AT
LEAST THERE WITH THEIR PARENTS
AND THEIR PARENTS KEEP THEM ON
TRACK. AYE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
KIDS AGED FOURTEEN TO TWENTY
FOURWHO ARE UNACCOMPANIED AND
ARE ON THEIR OWN.
I'M MORE THAN ONE THIRD OF OUR
NATION'S HOMELESS YOUTH ARE
LIVING IN CALIFORNIA.
I THE MOST RECENT ART CAO OUT IN
CALIFORNIA AND TWENTY SEVENTEEN
UP PUTS OUR.
NUMBER OF HOMELESS YOUTH IN
CALIFORNIA AT OVER FIFTEEN
THOUSAND A WE BELIEVE THAT THAT
NUMBER IS LOW AND CONSERVATIVE
BECAUSE IT'S VERY HARD TO
CAPTURE ALL OF THESE YOUTH.
PARTICULAR PARTICULARLY OF THEIR
COUCH SURFING OR OTHERWISE I'M
NOT ABLE TO BE COUNTED. ON ONE.
IN NOT ONE IN NINE HOMELESS
PEOPLE IN CALIFORNIA EYES AND
UNACCOMPANIED YOUTH.
DOT WEKNOW THAT.
WE CAN ESTIMATE LAST FALL BY
THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO THAT
NATIONALLY.
NINE POINT SEVEN PERCENT.
OF YOUTH NATIONAL AND NINE
POINT ONE PERCENT OF YOU CAN
CALIFORNIA. I EXPERIENCED
HOMELESSNESS AT SOME POINT IN
THE PAST TWELVE MONTHS
SO IF YOU LOOK AT. NEARLY ONE IN
TEN.
I USED IN THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA.
EXPERIENCED SOME FORM OF
HOMELESSNESS
AND THE LAST TWELVE MONTHS THAT
IS ALARMING.
TOM. I.
AND OF COURSE.
DIED IS HIGHER WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT THE AGE RANGE OF EIGHTEEN
TO TWENTY FOUR. ODDS LOWER FOR
THE YOUNGER AGES.
BUT OVERALL IT IS ODD SINCE AN
EXTRAORDINARY NUMBER IN TERMS OF
CHILDREN WHO WERE LIVING ON OUR
STREETS.
I TWO THIRDS OF CALIFORNIA'S
COUNTIES.
I DO NOT HAVE YOUTH SPECIFIC
HOMELESS SERVICES
AND THAT MEANS THAT YOU'VE GOT
LUMP THEN. WITH OLDER HOMELESS
PEOPLE AND.
THOSE ARE TWO VERY DIFFERENT
POPULATIONS WITH VERY DIFFERENT
NEEDS.
I AM IN FACT WHEN OU DON'T HAVE
YOU SPECIFIC PROGRAMS ARE USEFUL
OFF AND AVOID THOSE HOMELESS
SERVICES BECAUSE THEY'RE FEARFUL
OF BEING VICTIMIZED WHETHER IT'S
AYE SEXUALLY ABUSED.
ARE OTHERWISE ABUSE IF YOU ARE
SIXTEEN OR SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD.
I'M YOUR ONLY OPTION IS TO GO
INTO AN ADULT SHELTER THERE'S A
GOOD CHANCE THAT YOU ARE NOT.
ARE GOING TO GO.
NOW WE KNOW THAT OUR HOMES TO
POPULATION IS DISPROPORTIONATELY
LGBT ON AS MANY AS FORTY PERCENT
OF OUR HOMELESS YOUTH IDENTIFIES
LGBT. DISPROPORTIONATELY ARE
AFRICAN AMERICAN AND LATINO.
DISPROPORTIONATELY FROM
FAMILIES LIVING IN POVERTY. ON
DISPROPORTIONATELY COMING OUT OF
THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM CITIES OF
SOME OF OUR MOST MARGINALIZED
YOUTH. AND THEIR LIVING OUT ON
THE STREET.
WE KNOW THAT WITH YOUNG PEOPLE
IF YOU CAN GET UP A YOUNG PERSON
OFF THE STREET QUICKLY. YOU CAN
GET THEM BACK ON TRACK
I IT'S MUCH HARDER IF SOMEONE
HAS SPENT THE LAST FIVE TEN
FIFTEEN YEARS ON THE STREET.
TO STABILIZE THEM AND GET THEM
ON TRACK AND SO IT IS SO
IMPORTANT.
THAT THESE KIDS THAT WE
INTERVENE QUICKLY GOT THEM INTO
TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AND
ULTIMATELY PERMANENT HOUSING GET
THEM ALL THE WRAPAROUND
SERVICES.
AYE THAT THEY NEED AYE AND SO
WE.
US ASSEMBLY MEMBER RUBIO AND I
ARE PARTNERING ONE OF BILL S. B.
NINE EIGHTEEN AYE THAT WILL
CREATE AN OFFICE OF HOMELESS
YOUTH AND FIND A SERVICES ARE
SPECIFIC TO THESE KIDS. ARE AND
SO ON GRASSROOTS SUPPORT AND
LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU
IN THE BUDGET PROCESS. I WILL
NOT HANDED OVER TO SOME MEMBER
RUBIO.
THANK YOU. THINK IT'S A PLEASURE
TO BE HERE WITH YOU TODAY.
AYE.
THINK ABOUT A SENATOR WIENER
FOR HIS LEADER LEADERSHIP AND
ALLOWING ME TO BE.
A PARTICIPANT AND IN THIS
PROCESS I AM THE CHAIR HUMAN
SERVICES BUT MORE THAN THAT I'M
A FORMER TEACHER AND A FORMER
SCHOOL BOARD MEMBER. AND OF WHAT
WE DIDN'T MENTION IS THAT A LOT
OF THESE KIDS ARE IN OUR HIGH
SCHOOLS AND ON OUR COLLEGES AND
THOUGHT OUR MODEL HAS BEEN.
YOU KNOW TEACH THE KIDS THERE
THE FUTURE OF CALIFORNIA BUT
SOME OF THESE KIDS DON'T HAVE A
PLACE TO STAY. AND THEY'RE STILL
TRYING TO GET AN EDUCATION SO
THAT THEY CAN BE A PRODUCTIVE
MEMBERS OF SOCIETY SO I THINK
SENATOR WE KNOW FOR HIS
LEADERSHIP BIDE OUR IT'S ONLY
SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS. I AND I
THINK THAT IF YOU LOOK AT THIS
REQUESTED SHOP BRINGS A LOT OF
VALUE AND IT REALLY ALIGNS WITH
THE CORE VALUES OF OUR. AYE
SOCIETY IN CALIFORNIA SO I THINK
YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO
PRESENT BUT AGAIN EL AL AND WHAT
WE DIDN'T MENTION IS.
HE IS FROM SAN FRANCISCO BITES
OUT ONE THIRD OF THOSE HOMELESS
YOUTH AND CALIFORNIA FROM LA
COUNTY AND SO.
WE HAVE A HIGH POPULATION IN MY
AREA OF THE HOMELESS YOUTH BUT
MORE THAN THAT.
LOOK OUTSIDE IT'S RAINING AND
YOU THINK ABOUT FIFTEEN THOUSAND
KIDS TONIGHT DON'T HAVE A PLACE
TO STAY AND I. WASN'T AS AWARE
AS I AM TODAY BUT JUST THE RAIN
OUTSIDE JUST MAKES ME THINK
ABOUT WHAT ARE THESE KIDS GOING
TO DO SO WE. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR
YOUR.
HELP IN TRYING TO GET ONLY
SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS FOR FOR.
STARTING OUT HOMELESS YOUTH.
PROGRAM THANK YOU WILL THIS IS
CLEARLY A CRITICAL ISSUE IN THIS
IS A VERY VERY IMPORTANT.
PUZZLE SO I THINK. EVERYONE BOTH
ON THIS FLOOR AND DOWNSTAIRS
SHOULD COMMEND YOU FOR BRINGING
IT FORWARD LET ME ASK A QUESTION
ABOUT THE CANNABIS TAX FUND
BECAUSE OF YOU KNOW BUDGETS ARE
ONE YEAR ITEMS AND.
UNLESS IT'S IN A TRAILER BILL SO
WE HAVE TO THINK. WE SHOULD BE
THINKING ABOUT ABSENT THE FUTURE
EVEN IF WE AGREE WE AGREE THIS
ONE IS SUCCESSFUL ARE THERE
LIMITATIONS ON THE USE OF THE.
CANNABIS TAX FUND IS IS FIT INTO
ONE OF THOSE LITTLE POCKETS AND
DO WE HAVE ANY CONTROL OVER.
WHAT GOES IN THE BUCKET I GUESS
WOULD BE MY QUESTION? SO WE ARE
WE ARE WORKING THROUGH THOSE
ISSUES NOW WITH.
WITH COUNSEL AND WITH THE
DEPARTMENTS IN TERMS OF MAKING
SURE THAT WE ARE ON COMPLYING A
WITH THE BALLOT MEASURE THAT.
THE CREATED.
KIND OF THE STOCKS FUND.
I THERE ARE LIMITATIONS ARE ON
IT THERE ARE ON SOME THINGS THAT
WE CAN DO WITH A TWO THIRDS VOTE
OF THE LEGISLATURE.
THEIR OTHER THERE SOME THINGS
THAT WE SIMPLY CANNOT DO I AND
SO AS WE ARE WE HAVE PLACES
OFFICE AND.
EACH CD.
WE THINK THAT'S APPROPRIATE
LOCATION FOR IT.
WE ARE WORKING.
TO TO MAKE SURE THAT WE CAN DO
THAT CONSISTENT WITH THE BALLOT
MEASURE THAT WAS PASSED. OUT IF
THERE ARE ANY ISSUES WITH THAT
ON THEN WE MAY NEED TO LOOK TO
THE GENERAL FUND. ON BUT WE'RE
CURRENTLY.
ANALYZING AND WORKING THROUGH
THOSE ISSUES
AND THEN I. THANK YOU FOR THAT
AND I THINK THAT'S SOMETHING WE
WE NEED TO BE THINKING ABOUT
HOW.
HOW?
ASSUMING.
WERE ABLE TO PUSH THIS THROUGH.
WHAT HAPPENS IN FUTURE YEARS AND
HOW WE ENSURE THAT THE PROGRAM
HAS?
?
CONTINUED OPPORTUNITY TO SUCCEED
AND NOT JUST BE A ONE TIME.
FLESH IN THE PAN I HAVE ANOTHER
QUESTION AND THEN I'LL TURN IT
OVER TO MY COLLEAGUE AND PUBLIC
COMMENT BUT.
WITH RESPECT TO THE.
DISTRIBUTION OF THE MONEY.
IN THE GRANT PROGRAMS.
ONE OF THE ISSUES THAT SOME OF
US SEE.
FROM OUR PERSPECTIVE.
BECAUSE OF WHERE WE SAID SO
INLAND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA TO
SOME EXTENT THE CENTRAL VALLEY.
UP NORTH IN THE AND THEN
PORTIONS OF THE STATE.
I ASSUME THIS GOES THROUGH
COUNTY AGENCIES.
AND.
HOW DO YOU INSURE THAT THERE IS
SOME EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION?
OF THE SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS IN
THE GRANT MONEY AND THAT IT DOES
NOT ALL GO TO.
THE COASTAL.
URBAN COMMUNITIES BECAUSE I
ASSUME.
THAT HOMELESSNESS AND USE
HOMELESSNESS.
IS EVERYWHERE.
AND IN SOME PLACES GREATER THAN
OTHERS AND SOMETIMES TO GREATER
LOCATIONS.
ARE NOT NECESSARILY THE URBAN
AREAS.
THAT'S A FAIR QUESTION I'M. AYE
YES OF SO I'M ARE IN TERMS OF.
SO WHAT TURN THE CONSISTENCY
YEAR OVER YEAR I MEAN CLEARLY WE
THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH A LOT OF.
A LOT OF.
PROGRAMS YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE
IF WE DON'T BUDGET EVERY YEAR
AND. AND YOU HAVE TO PROTECT AND
IN MARIN IN THE NO PLACE LIKE
HOME FOR EXAMPLE.
YOU MAY RECALL THAT THERE WERE
BUCKETS CREATED IN YOUR HEAD.
A COUPLE OF THE BUCKET FOR THE
FOR THE EXTRAORDINARILY LARGE
COUNTIES WITH THE EXTRAORDINARY
LA LARGE PROBLEMS AND THEN THE
ROOF BUCKETS FOR THE.
OTHER LARGE COUNTIES IN THE
MEDIUM COUNTIES IN THE SMALL
COUNTIES AND.
I'D ENCOURAGE YOU IS THIS THING
MOVES ALONG.
CONSISTENT WITH YOU NEED TO FIX
THE PROBLEM. TO MAYBE GIVE
OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE MEDIUM AND
THE SMALL EVEN THOUGH. ALMOST
LARGE COUNTIES TO PARTICIPATE IN
THE VERY VERY REASONABLE.
I REQUEST AND.
HERE WE DO WE DO HAVE YOU KNOW
THE URBAN AREAS HAVE TEND TO BE
DISPROPORTIONATELY. ON THE
PLACES WHERE THESE KIDS OFTEN GO
ON BUT I COMPLETELY AGREE THAT
YOU THAT THE SMOG AND
PARTICULARLY COMMUNITIES. THAT
DON'T HAVE THEIR OWN YOU
SPECIFIC HOMELESS PROGRAMS TEND
TO BE SOME OF THE SMALLER
COUNTIES RIPPED THROUGH A.
AND THEY KNOW I JUST I WE'VE
BEEN TALKING ABOUT HOW WE'RE
GOING TO GET IT TO A LOT OF THE
ROPE RURAL COUNTIES WE. TALK
ABOUT LA COUNTY HAVING ONE THIRD
BUT WHERE THE OTHER KIDS AND SO
I THINK THAT IT'S IMPORTANT THAT
WE WE FIGURE OUT HOW TO
DISTRIBUTE IT.
EQUALLY BECAUSE THE AND. MARK
AND ALSO HOW TO COUNT SOME OF
THESE KIDS BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT
BEING COUNTED CORRECTLY AND SO
WE HAVE TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE TO DISTRIBUTE
THE MONEY UP PROPERLY TO THAT
THAT DIFFERENT COUNTY AND WHAT
I'VE FOUND IS THE.
THE OFTEN THESE YOU
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES AS
WELL.
AND.
THEY DON'T HAVE A VERY.
A LOUD VOICE.
A BIG PLACE TO THE TABLE IF THEY
HAVE A VOICE OR A PLACE AT ALL.
AND IT I THINK IT'S VERY
IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT
THERE'S MONEY AVAILABLE AND
MAYBE WITH A. WITH A SWEEP UP
SITUATION SO IF THE MONEY IS NOT
USED IN A PARTICULAR BUDGET IT'S
A BUCKET IT SWEPT UP IN.
USED BY THE HIGHLY URBANIZED TO
COASTAL AREAS SHOULD NEVER HAVE
ENOUGH MONEY.
TO DEAL WITH THE NEEDS THAT ARE
OUT THERE.
BUT BUT ALSO WHAT WHAT MORE THAN
THAT I THINK.
EAT WHAT WE FOUND WE HAD A
HEARING LAST.
FAR BUT WE ALSO FOUND IS THAT
SOME OF THE SERVICES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE TO THE YOUTH THEY HAVE
NO IDEA THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO
ANY OF THE SOUL SO I THINK PART
OF THAT ALSO HAS TO BE IS HOW DO
WE GET THE WORD OUT. TO SOME OF
THESE KIDS THAT THAT WE DO HAVE
SERVICES AVAILABLE ANY MINUTE
NOW LEYVA HEARING WAS IN LA. YOU
KNOW YOU WOULD THINK WITH WITH
THAT THAT THE.
.
FACILITIES ARE THE SERVICES THAT
THEY WORK ACCESSING WERE ALSO
GIVEN HIM AND GIVEN THE STICK
THE KIDS INFORMATION ON MORE
SERVICES AND THAT WAS NOT THE
CASE WHICH WAS REALLY SURPRISING
TO US. THE THE COMPLAINT THAT WE
HEARD.
ó WAS THAT THEY HAD NO IDEA
THAT THEY HAVE ACCESS TO THIS SO
IF WE HAVE AN AUDITION IN URBAN
AREAS I CAN IMAGINE WHAT THE
PROBLEMS ARE IN THE. RURAL AREAS
WHERE YOU KNOW YOU YOU YOU DON'T
KNOW WHERE TO GO SO I THOUGHT I
THINK I SENATOR WIENER AND ARE
WORKING TO THAT TO MAKE SURE
THAT THOSE COMMUNITIES ARE. I
NOT ONLY.
GIVEN THE THE MONEY BUT ALSO
IDENTIFYING HOW WE'RE GOING TO
GET THE WORD OUT SO THAT THESE
KIDS CAN GET THAT HELP THAT THEY
NEED.
MISTER CHAIRMAN THE OTHER
QUESTION YOU ASKED WAS WHERE HOW
THAT MONEY IS A DISPERSED IN SP
NINE EIGHTEEN RIGHT NOW. AYE IT
IS.
THE ECHOES IN GRANTS ARE
DIRECTLY TO THE SOCIAL SERVICE
PROVIDERS NOT THROUGH THE
COUNTIES.
ON THERE IS ACTION ONGOING ISSUE
THAT YOU'LL SEE THERE'S A MUCH
LARGER UP BUDGET REQUEST FROM
THE BIG ELEVEN. I'VE.
MAYORS.
.
THERE THERE IS AN ISSUE AND A
SERVICE YOU RIGHT NOW. WHERE I
AM OF COURSE SO MUCH OF STATE
SOCIAL SERVICE MY GOES THROUGH
THE COUNTY?
AND THAT DOES NOT ALWAYS REACH.
AND SUPPORT THE CITIES WHO ARE
BEARING THE BRUNT OF THE PROMISE
TO YOU AN AT AND OAKLAND WHERE
FRESNO OR A SACRAMENTO.
WHERE THE CITIES THAT ARE
REALLY BEARING THE BRUNT OF THE
INTO? HOMELESS SITUATION ON ARE
NOT ALWAYS GETTING THE SUPPORT
THEY NEED BECAUSE EVERYTHING
GOES OF THE COUNTY AND THAT'S A
A BROADER CONVERSATION THAT WILL
HAVE IN THE BUDGET THIS YEAR. ON
WE KNOW WE HAVE GOTTEN SOME
FEEDBACK.
I SEE FROM MY OWN CITY OPPOSITE
ALSO COUNTY.
AND WE.
Y. THE MAGICAL CITY AND COUNTY.
BUT WILL IT BE THE EXACT AYE.
.
THAT WE. WE DO ONE.
WE DO WANT HIM IT IS NOT A
COLUMN ANYWAY.
WE DO WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT.
THAT THE GROUNDS THAT THE MONEY
THAT IS DISPERSED TO SOCIAL
SERVICE PROVIDERS ON IF A COUNTY
HAS.
PLAN.
THAT IT FALLS WITHIN THAT PLAN
WE WANT WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT COUNTY STILL ARE ABLE TO AT
LEAST SET.
PRIORITIES.
AND SO WE'RE WORKING THROUGH A
POTENTIAL AMENDMENTS TO ADDRESS
THAT PARTICULAR ISSUE AND THAT'S
GREAT IF CENTER WILK IS
PRESENTING IN ANOTHER COMMITTEE
SUBCOMMITTEE RIGHT NOW HE WOULD
BE HERE AND IF HE WERE HERE. I
THINK HE WOULD JUMP IN AND TALK
ABOUT TO HIS PARTICULAR AREA IN
CALIFORNIA WHICH IS.
IN LA COUNTY BLACK IT'S NOT NOW
IN LA RIGHT AND SANTA CLARA
VALLEY WHAT HE WOULD SAY I THINK
NOT PUT WORDS IN HIS MOUTH IS.
SOMETIMES THE SAME ORGANIZATIONS
GET THE SAME MONEY AND THERE'S
NOT A.
A SET OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES IN
THE SET OF METRICS THAT ARE
PERIODICALLY EVALUATED AND THE
MONEY IS NOT SHIFTED.
TO ORGANIZATIONS THAT PERHAPS
COULD BETTER PROVIDE THE SERVICE
AND THIS CAME UP IN A JOINT
LEGISLATIVE AUDIT COMMITTEE.
WHERE I SUGGESTED LA THAT THEY
GO BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD AND
FIGURE OUT A BETTER WAY TO DO IT
SO I THINK IS YOUR BILL MOVES
FORWARD IN THIS IS HOPEFULLY YOU
GET WE GET YOU YOUR? SIXTEEN
ONLY DOLLARS ONLY SIXTEEN MONEY
AND SIXTY ONE MILLION OR
WHATEVER IT IS AND
AND YOU MOVE THIS THING FORWARD
THAT YOU YOU KNOW YOU ARE
CONSIDER THOSE ISSUES AND. TRY
TO RID ADDRESS THE.
THE HAVE NOTS RIGHT FOR IN IT I
THINK ARM BUT YOU KNOW TO YOUR
POINT OF ABOUT SENATOR WELL I'M
FROM LA COUNTY IN THE COMPLETE
THEM THERE IS WE DO HAVE THE.
WHAT IS IT WE WE PASSED OUT OF
BOND AND THAT IS THE COMPLAINT
THAT SANTA CLARITA VALLEYS NOT
GETTING THE SAME AMOUNT OF
RESOURCES THAT? THE REST THE
COUNTY HAS AND SO WERE AYE AS
THEY WORK THROUGH THAT I THINK
ARE A WOULD BE A GOOD IDEA FOR
US AT LEAST IN LA COUNTY TO LOOK
AT WHAT THE MODEL IS SO THAT WE.
ARE MAKING SURE THAT THE SERVICE
THAT THAT MONEY IS GETTING
THROUGH TO THE SENATE AND THE
SENATOR VALLEY.
SO THAT WE ARE ADDRESSING THE
ISSUE.
EQUITABLY.
THEIR LIVES ARE ANY QUESTIONS.
PERFECT.
WELL FIRST DODD THANK YOU BOTH
FOR BEING HERE AND FOR FOR
LEADING AND ON SUCH AN IMPORTANT
ISSUE.
CERTAINLY OUR OUR HEART BREAKS
WHEN WE.
THAT FOCUS OUR MIND AND WHAT
HE'S YOUTH ARE GOING THROUGH.
.
THAT'S THE CHALLENGE THAT THAT
WE HAVE IS THAT WE WE KNOW WE
HAVE A BROADER SOCIETAL
CHALLENGE.
I IN THE AREA POVERTY RIGHT THEM
AT THIRD OF.
A LOT OF FOLKS IN ACTS THIRTY
PERCENT OF CALIFORNIANS LIVE
BELOW THE FEDERAL POVERTY LINE.
AND AND WE'RE NOT JUST HIGH
HOUSING COSTS ARE TAKEN INTO
ACCOUNT.
WHEN HOUSING COSTS ARE TAKEN
INTO ACCOUNT AND WE KNOW THAT
THIS ISN'T JUST ABOUT HOUSING
ISSUE.
IT'S ABOUT FOOD ON THE TABLE ON
A LOT OF OTHER THINGS.
AND IT AND IT ALWAYS US STRIKES
ME THAT IT'S THE HARDEST CHOICES
THAT WE MAKE IS THAT WE HAVE A
CERTAIN AMOUNT OF MONEY.
AND HOW CAN WE MAKE SURE IT GOES
THAT PLACE WHERE I CAN DO THE
MOST GOOD RIGHT.
AND OUT.
WE WERE HAVING A CONVERSATION.
IN MY OFFICE THE OTHER DAY
ABOUT.
STUDENTS THAT ARE HOMELESS
HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS THAT
ARE HOMELESS.
BIG FOCUS OF MINE.
AND UP HOW DO WE WAY THAT CHOICE
OF FIVE IF WE RAISE THE SSI
GRANTS BY ONE PERCENT FOR OUR
ELDERLY.
IT SHOULD BE SO IMPORTANT.
THAT THAT MAY BE A BILLION
DOLLARS.
AND AND THEN YOU COMPARE THAT TO
SOME OF THE OTHER NEEDS THAT WE
HAPPENED AND WHERE YOU GET THE
MOST FOR IT HOW WHAT I LIKED IT.
I THINK ABOUT IT WITH MY GROUP
MY MOTHER WHO WAS BY SEVENTY
FIVE AND AND LIVING AT THE
POVERTY LINE WHETHER THAT ONE
PERCENT WHAT IMPACT THAT COULD
HAVE VERSUS THESE OTHER
PROGRAMS.
AND SO IT IS A CHALLENGE FOR ALL
OF US TO TRY TO FIGURE THAT OUT
AND.
.
AND CERTAINLY IN YOUR LETTER YOU
THAT YOU IDENTIFY ALTHOUGH IT'S
NOT SOURCED AT THAT.
HOME HOMELESS YOUTH IS FIVE
TIMES MORE LIKELY TO BECOME
HOMELESS ADULT.
I BE INTERESTED IN THE SITE ON
THAT BUT THAT'S REALLY THE
DILEMMA THAT I FEEL WE FACE.
IN THIS NOT JUST IN THIS
COMMITTEE BUT AS A SENATE AS A
LEGISLATURE KNOW GLAZER AYE SAID
ON SOMEONE.
ABOUT HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES
AND WE'VE BEEN HAVING SIX TO
SEVEN OUR HEARINGS AND JUST TO
SIT THERE AND HEAR THE THE
STORIES OF SOME FOLKS JUST
YESTERDAY WE HAD A HEARING. ON
THE WHERE THEY HAVE TO CHOOSE
BETWEEN MEDICINE OR FOOD I MEAN
WHO WHERE IT WHERE IN THE
WEALTHIEST.
COUNTRY OR. AT LEAST IN THE
STATE RIGHT AND AND FOR FOLKS TO
HAVE TO MAKE DECISION THAT'S TO
OF WELL AM I GOING TO BE OKAY OR
I'M GOING AND MY GOING TO EAT.
AND THAT'S ALSO A CHALLENGE BUT
I THINK THAT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT
YOU THEN I'M NOT TRYING TO PUT
UP. YOU KNOW WHO'S NUMBER ONE
WHO'S NUMBER TWO BUT I THINK IF
WE START TALKING ABOUT THE BASIC
NEEDS I THINK THAT'S WHERE WE
NEED TO START CONVERSATION.
IT'S IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A JOKE
ABOUT YOU KNOW I A TOP ROMAN
WHEN I WAS IN COLLEGE WILL.
IT'S AND IT WAS A JOKE BUT IT'S.
BUT KIDS REALITIES RIGHT NOW
THAT TOP ROMAN WOULD BE WELCOMED
EVEN IF THEY WERE ABLE TO AFFORD
IT AND SO SO IT REALLY THOSE
JOKES HAVE BECOME REALITY FOR A
LOT OF THESE KIDS AND I THINK.
YOU ARE CORRECT THAT IT IS A
CHALLENGE BY THINK IF WE.
GOTTA FIGURE OUT. BY HEARING
YESTERDAY ABOUT WHAT ABOUT THE
HUNDRED DOLLARS EXTRA FOR THE
SSI AND SO WE CAN FIGURE OUT HOW
TO. HOPEFULLY UP ALLEVIATE SOME
OF THE BURDEN I'M FOR SOME OF
THESE FOLKS AND THEN.
TRY TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE WITH
THE HOMELESS KIDS. IF THE
SPECIFICS ARE SO THAT OUR KIDS
THAT ARE HOMELESS WILL BECOME
HOMELESS ADULTS LET'S DO
SOMETHING NOW SO THAT THEY CAN
FINISH SCHOOL AND BECOME.
PRODUCTIVE MEMBERS OF OF OF OF
OUR COMMUNITIES AND AND AND HELP
US THROUGH THAT THE ONLY SIXTY
MILLION DOLLARS
IS A BABY STEP. IN THE DIRECTION
OF AT LEAST TRYING TO ADDRESS
SOME OF THOSE ISSUES AND IF WE
CAN CATCH THEMNOW THEN WE WON'T
HAVE. THE ISSUES THAT WE ARE
FACING TODAY GREAT IT AND I I
THINK THAT.
.
YOU KNOW ONE OF THE ANSWERS THAT
THAT THAT THE SAME QUESTION THAT
I POSED TO THE CHANCELLOR OF THE
CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY HE
IS THE TERM YESTERDAY. A SEED
CORN.
THAT WHERE YOU CAN MAKE
INVESTMENTS THAT ARE GOING TO
BLOSSOM AND I'M DOING OTHER
THINGS.
I MAKING SOMEONE A PRODUCTIVE
CITIZEN KEEPING THEM OUT OF
JAIL.
EARNING A GOOD INCOME PROVIDING
FOR A FAMILY SUPPORTING THOSE
AROUND THEM THAT AND IN THE
STATE. THAT THAT SEE CORN AT.
REFERENCES A VERY POWERFUL ONE
AND AND I AND CERTAINLY WHEN YOU
TALK ABOUT OUR YOUTH. IT IT
CERTAINLY SEEMS TO FIT THAT
EQUATION. THE THE OTHER THING
THAT I GUESS WOULD BE NICE AND
CENTER MY GOODNESS ON SEARCHES
DONE IN TERMS OF I APPRECIATE
YOUR FOCUS ON. ON HOMELESSNESS
AMONG COLLEGE
STUDENTS AND AND US I THINK I'M
FOR YOU KNOW A ONE OUT OF TEN
CIOS YOU STUDENTS IS HOMELESS.
ON RECENTLY LA IS A COMMUNITY
COLLEGE.
INDICATED THAT.
NEARLY TWENTY PERCENT OF LA
COMMUNITY COLLEGE STUDENTS.
ARE HOMELESS.
I WAS TELLING SOMEONE RECENTLY
WHO LIVES IN LA NEAR.
THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE CAMPUS WHO
SAID THAT HE IS NOT BE NOTICES
IS YOUNG PEOPLE SLEEPING IN CARS
AND. ARE AND SO IT'S A IT IS A
HUGE CONCERT THANK YOU FOR
FOCUSING ON THE YEAH THANK YOU
AND.
THAT
BUT IT AND SO HERE'S MY SECOND
MY NEXT QUESTION IS REALLY
ABOUT.
HOW CAN YOU CODIFY IN YOUR
PROPOSAL?
HOW MANY KIDS ARE GOING TO BE
SIR BECAUSE ONCE AGAIN IT'S OF
IT WE HAVE LIMITED RESOURCES AND
SO HOW CAN YOU MAKE SURE? YOU
GET THE MOST OUT OF IT AND IT'S
NOT CLEAR AT LEAST IN THE STAFF
REPORT AND I'M SURE THERE'S MORE
DETAILS THAT YOU HAVE.
THAT WE BENEFIT FROM IN TERMS
OF HOW FAR IS THIS MONEY REALLY
GOING TO GO THE ONLY SIXTY
MILLION RIGHT HOW MANY KIDS DO
YOU THINK WE CAN ALL COME BACK
WHAT ABOUT NEXT YEAR. YEAH I
KNOW THAT.
YOU HAVE TO SAY THAT.
THERE WERE IT WERE HAPPY I'M US
ALSO ES FOR SLATE BEFORE SOMEONE
WE HAVE. OUR STAFF. ON THE BRIEF
YOU ON THOSE ISSUE THAT'S RIGHT
NOW
HAD THE GREAT HAD DIED AND WE
KEEP IN MIND THAT.
YOU KNOW.
WE HAVE TO MAKE TOUGH CHOICES
RIGHT E ALL KNOW THAT THE
PROBLEM IS BIG AND WE WE WE. WE
WANT TO DO WE WANT TO HELP
EVERYBODY BUT HOW CAN WE MAKE
THE BEST CHOICES EVEN THOUGH
THEIR HEART WANTS TO MAKE.
THANK YOU THANK YOU.

GOOD MORNING I'M AYE SHERILYN
ADAMS EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF LUCK
IN ST YOU SERVICES IN SAN
FRANCISCO AND I'M THE CHAIR OF
THE BOARD FOR THE CALIFORNIA
COALITION FOR YOUTH.
AND I'M HERE TO SPEAKON BEHALF
OF REALLY HAVING AN OFFICE OF
HOMELESS YOUTH AND A STATE
ALLOCATED RESOURCES TO BE ABLE
TO ADDRESS. THE SPECIFIC NEEDS
OF YOUNG PEOPLE ALL. AND OVER
THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS WE'VE
LOST EIGHT YOUNG PEOPLE WHO HAVE
DIED IN SAN FRANCISCO AS A
RESULT OF HOMELESSNESS.
AS JIM SAYS THIS IS A LIFE AND
DEATH ISSUE.
I YOUNG PEOPLE MAKE UP ABOUT
TWENTY PERCENT OF THE
HOMELESSNESS POPULATION IN SAN
FRANCISCO.
WE HAVE AN ARRAY OF SERVICES
DESIGNED TO MEET THEIR NEEDS
IT'S NOT SUFFICIENT BUT IN SAN
FRANCISCO WE DO HAVE HOUSING AND
SUPPORTIVE SERVICES AND
EDUCATION.
AND EMPLOYMENT TO MEET THE NEEDS
OF THE THIRTEEN HUNDRED YOUNG
PEOPLE ARE NOT MEET A FULL NEEDS
BUT MEET THE NEEDS OF SOME OF
THE THIRTEEN HUNDRED YOUNG
PEOPLE.
WHO ARE HOMELESS ON ANY GIVEN
NIGHT IN SAN FRANCISCO AS GEMS
THOSE THOSE SERVICES AND ABILITY
SHOULD BE AVAILABLE ACROSS THE
STATE TO MEET THE NEEDS OF YOUNG
PEOPLE?
WE CAN CURB CHRONIC HOMELESSNESS
IF WE ADDRESS HOMELESSNESS AMONG
YOUNG PEOPLE.
RIGHT SO IF WE HAVE THE SPECIALS
THE SPECIFIC SERVICES THAT THEY
NEED WHICH AS HOUSING PREVENTION
SERVICES TO GET THEM INTO
HOUSING QUICKLY LIKE SHELTER AND
DROP IN CENTERS.
HOUSING AND EDUCATION AND
EMPLOYMENT AND LIFE SKILLS THEN
THEY THEN THEY GO ON TO BECOME
THE YOUNG LEADERS THAT WE'RE
GONNA NEED GOING FORWARD IT'S AN
INVESTMENT INTO DAY IT'S AN
INVESTMENT TOMORROW BUT TO DO
THAT. WE NEED A COORDINATED BODY
AT THE STATE THAT'S ABLE TO LOOK
AT UNMET NEED ACROSS COUNTIES TO
DO IT TO DETERMINE WHAT NEEDS TO
HAPPEN AND EFFECTIVE SYSTEMS. TO
WORK WITH LOCAL JURISDICTIONS TO
HAVE THAT SYSTEM AND THEN TO
HAVE THE IMPORTANT RESOURCES
NECESSARY TO EXECUTE ON THAT
SYSTEM SO THAT WE CAN PREVENT AN
AND YOU HOMELESSNESS. AND WE CAN
SIGNIFICANTLY IMPACT CRITICAL
BUSINESS THANK YOU THANK YOU
THANK RETURNS.
HELLO MY NAME IS AMY LEMLEY AND
THE EXECUTRIX OR OF JUMPER
NAPKINS FOR YOU THANKS FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO BE HERE TODAY.
THE POINT THAT I'D LIKE TO MEET
COMMITTEE IS THAT THE CURRENT
PROPOSAL IS NOT INTENDED TO
SERVE EVERY LAST HOMELESS YOUTH
IN CALIFORNIA.
IT'S REALLY TO DEVELOP A
COHERENT STATE WIDE POLICY AND
TO LEVERAGE EXISTING INVESTMENT.
FOR EXAMPLE THIS PROPOSAL IS
VERY STRATEGIC IN THAT HOW IT
INTERFACES WITH OUR CHILD
WELFARE SYSTEM AS YOU JUST
HEARD.
MANY YOUNG PEOPLE WHO'VE BEEN
ABUSED AND NEGLECTED WHO MEET P.
I JURISDICTION OF THE FOSTER
CARE SYSTEM LEAVE HOME BEFORE.
THEY ARE YOU KNOW FOUND BY OUR
CHILD OFFERS SYSTEM THIS
PROPOSAL WOULD INCREASE TRAINING
FOR SHELTER WORKERS.
SCREENING AND HELP THOSE YOUNG
PEOPLE FIND THEIR WAY TO THE
SYSTEM THAT WAS ESTABLISHED TO
SERVE THEM SO AGAIN IT'S.
IT'S USING AT WHICH HAS UP A
FIFTY PERCENT FEDERAL MATCH ON
THE HOUSING SITE FOR EIGHTEEN TO
TWENTY FOUR YEAR OLDS AGAIN WE
HAVE A WONDERFUL ROBUST STRONG.
HOUSING PROGRAM BUT MANY ARE
YOUNG ADULTS ADULTS ARE SERVED
BY IT OUT SO AGAIN BY
INTEGRATING THIS PROGRAM INTO
THEEXISTING CONTINUE MY HOUSING
OPTIONS WERE ABLE TO HELP YOUNG
PEOPLE. ARE FINE THAT
COORDINATED ENTRY SYSTEM AND
ACTUALLY PARTICIPATE IN THOSE
EXISTING PROGRAMS SO RIGHT NOW
WHAT WE HAVE IS A HOMELESS USE
FALLING THROUGH THE CRACKS.
I AND THIS PROPOSAL ENDS THAT IT
PAVES OVER THAT CRACK. AND
DEVELOPS A COHERENT APPROACH DO
YOU HOMELESSNESS IN CALIFORNIA
BY LEVERAGING THE EXISTING STATE
INVESTMENT NOT BY REPLICATING AT
NOT HAVING A STANDALONE SYSTEM
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU THANK FOR TAKING THE
TIME COME AND LET ME JUST MAKE A
QUICK COMMENT. AYE I TEND TO LET
PEOPLE. SPEAK BECAUSE YOU TAKE
THE TIME TO COME HERE.
I I WOULD ASK YOU TO BE A
LITTLE BIT MORE LIMITED IN YOUR
COMMENTS.
.
IF FOR NO OTHER REASON THAN THIS
IS TIED TO A OF A MY GUESS IS A
PENDING SENDING BILL SENATE
BILL.
THAT WILL BE HEARD IN POLICY
COMMITTEE AND SO WE'RE REALLY.
REALLY FOCUSED ON THE.
THE ECONOMICS OF THIS ALTHOUGH I
DO THINK IT'S IMPORTANT TO LET
THE FOLKS IN THE FLOORS ABOVE
AND THE FLOORS BELOW. KNOW A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE POLICY
ISSUES SO I I'M NOT GOING TO
LIMIT YOU TO NAME AND POSITION
ONLY BUT TRY TO BE A LITTLE BIT.
BRIEFER IF YOU CAN BECAUSE WE
HAVE A LONG AGENDA AND THE.
THIS IS BY NO MEANS THE MOST
CONTROVERSIAL OF THE.
ONE THING HERE SO YES.

SPONSOR OF THE BILL THAT'S
ATTACHED TO THIS AND OBVIOUSLY
TREMENDOUSLY SUPPORTIVE OF THE
BUDGET ALLOCATION THAT WOULD GO
ALONG WITH THIS. AND WHAT IT
WOULD ACCOMPLISH PARTICULARLY
FOR LGBTQ YOUNG PEOPLE IN
CALIFORNIA AND MANY OF YOU HAVE
PROBABLY HEARD THE STATISTIC
THAT APPROXIMATELY FOUR IN TEN
YOUNG PEOPLE WHO ARE
EXPERIENCING HOMELESSNESS
IDENTIFY AS LGBTQ. ACROSS MAJOR
CITIES IN CALIFORNIA SO THIS IS
TREMENDOUSLY IMPORTANT AND
THAT'S BECAUSE OF UNFORTUNATELY
SOME OF THE FAMILY REJECTION
THAT AND YOU TAKE YOUNG EOPLE

JAM SHARE TODAY. I'M SELF ON
BEHALF OF THOSE YOUNG PEOPLE WE
VERY MUCH SUPPORT THIS PROPOSAL

GOOD MORNING SHARON REPORT WITH
THE CORPORATION FOR SUPPORT OF

ADDRESSING THE INDIVIDUAL NEEDS
BY PROVIDING A RANGE OF HOUSING
AND SERVICES OPTIONS FOR THOSE
INDIVIDUALS.
FROM I'M REUNITING WITH FAMILY
TO PROVIDING RAPID RE HOUSING
TRANSITIONAL HOUSING AND SUPPORT
OF HOUSING.
I BY HOUSING IT AT AN OFFICE OF
HOMELESS YOUTH WITH AN AGE CD IT

YOU HAVE ACCESS TO OTHER HOUSING
PROGRAMS.

QUESTION THAT SENATOR GLAZER
RAISED EARLIER ABOUT IS THIS

ACCESS OTHER PROGRAMS THAT
CURRENTLY EXIST THANK YOU VERY
MUCH THANK YOU FOR COMING YES
DEXTER. HEY CHRIS MARTIN WITH
HOUSING CALIFORNIA.

I'M COUNTY WIDE IN IN THE
STATEWIDE.
IT WITH TWO THIRDS COUNTIES NOT
HAVING.
A PROGRAM TO ADDRESS HOMELESS
YOUTH AND THAT YOU KNOW AT
HOUSING CALIFORNIA WE BELIEVE IT
HOUSING IS A KEY ASPECT TO.
ENDING YOUTH HOMELESSNESS AND
THAT IN.
PUTTING THIS DEPARTMENT OUR
OFFICE WITHIN EACH CD IT TAKES
HOUSING FIRST APPROACH IN THAT
WE STRONGLY SUPPORT THEN THE
BUDGET REQUEST IS A PRETTY GREAT
AUTHOR AND.
YES NEXT I CAN LUIS REPRESENTING
THE CALIFORNIA COALITION FOR
YEARS PLEASE TO BE ONE OF THE CO
SPONSORS ON THIS PROPOSAL AND.
THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY
HOW THIS ITEM HEARD TODAY I
THINK IT'S A REALLY IMPORTANT
TOPIC THAT WE SPENT SOME TIME
ON.
AND ESPECIALLY THE UNIQUE NEEDS
OF YEAR AND BECAUSE A LOT OF
TIMES WE TALK ABOUT HOMELESSNESS
IT'S REALLY THE CHRONIC IN THE
VETERANS LIKE IT MOSTLY
ATTENTION. AND THE YOUTH DON'T
COME FORWARD AS MUCH IN THE
CONVERSATION AND THIS PROPOSAL
IS REALLY UNIQUE IN THE FACT
THAT IT DOES ON THINGS LIKE
HOUSING AND SERVICES. WHERE A
LOT OF TIMES WE DON'T COMBINED
THE TO YOU WITHIN A PROPOSAL AND
AND IT'S REALLY WITH YOUTH WE
NEED ABOUT?
TO HAPPEN AND TO ADDRESS WHEN
YOUR QUESTIONS EARLIER AROUND.
AND HOW WE'VE WAITED PRIORITIZE
THOSE COUNTIES THAT DON'T HAVE
SERVICES THAT'S ACTUALLY A
PRIORITY IN THE GRANT PROGRAM IS
COUNTIES THAT DON'T HAVE ANY
STARS. SERVICES OF ANY KIND
WOULD BE PRIORITIZED FOR THOSE
GRANTS BECAUSE WE DO YOU
ADDRESS.
THAT THERE ARE MANY PARTS OF
STATE HAVE NOTHING AND SO WE
WANT TO GET RESOURCES OUT THERE
AND THIS IS THE FIRST CRITICAL
STEP. IN ENSURING THAT WE CAN
BUILD THAT CAPACITY ACROSS THE
STATE SIR THANK YOU SO MUCH
THANK YOU.
ANYTHING FURTHER.
WELL WE LOOK FORWARD TO.
.
MOVING THIS FORWARD HOPEFULLY WE
CAN ACCOMPLISH THIS OBJECTIVE
AND HELP YOU WITH THIS SO. IT'S
A HOLD OPEN ITEM THIS IS STAFF
RECOMMENDATION SO WE'LL BE
BRINGING THIS BACK EITHER TO
THIS SUBCOMMITTEE OR TO.
THE BIG BUDGET.
COMMITTEE BEFORE THIS PROCESS
IS OVER SO THANK YOU BOTH VERY
MUCH AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR
PATIENCE MULTIVITAMIN THING.
FOR.
OKAY ITEM TWENTY TWO FOUR ZERO
DEPARTMENT HASN'T COMMUNITY
VELVET ISSUED OVER TO STATEWIDE
HOUSING PACKAGE SP TWO AND S. B.
THREE
.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR. PATIENCE AND
FOR RETURNING TO THE HOT SEAT.
OKAY WAS TO PRESENT.
SO AND AGAIN I'M SUSAN GO TO
SEND DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR
ADMINISTRATION OF THE DEPARTMENT
OF HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT AND I WILL LEAD US
OFF.
SO FOR DECADES CALIFORNIA HAS
FACED A SHORTAGE OF HOUSING DUE
TO HISTORIC UNDER PRODUCTION OF
ADEQUATE SUPPLY. WHEN COMPARED
TO DEMAND WHILE THE TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN STATEWIDE HOUSING
ASSESSMENT IDENTIFIED ONE
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THOUSAND
UNITS OF HOUSING NEEDED
ANNUALLY.
TO HOUSE THE GROWING POPULATION
OVER THE NEXT TEN YEARS ONLY AN
AVERAGE ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND
UNITS HAVE BEEN PRODUCED
ANNUALLY OVER THE LAST EIGHT
YEARS.
BECAUSE OF THIS UNDER PRODUCTION
OVER ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY
THOUSAND PEOPLE ARE NOW HOMELESS
AND ON SHELTERED.
RENT COSTS ARE CONSUMING IN EVER
LARGER PORTION OF INCOMES AND
WELL INTENDED BUT BURDENSOME
REGULATIONS. CONTINUE TO INHIBIT
THE CONSTRUCTION OF NEW HOUSING.
NO RESPONSE TO THIS CRISIS THE
ADMINISTRATION AND LEGISLATURE
DEVELOPED A LEGISLATIVE HOUSING
PACKAGE OF FIFTEEN BILLS.
THAT THE GOVERNOR SIGNED INTO
LAW ON SEPTEMBER TWO THOUSAND
SEVENTEEN.
TODAY EACH CITY IS REQUESTING
AUTHORITY FOR POSITIONS IN
FUNDING. TO IMPLEMENT THIS
HOUSING PACKAGE.
SPECIFICALLY EACH CD REQUESTS A
TOTAL OF EIGHTY ONE POSITIONS
AND TWO TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN.
ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY EIGHT
POSITIONS IN NINETEEN TWENTY.
AND ONE HUNDRED AND FORTY SIX
POSITIONS AND TWO THOUSAND
TWENTY TWENTY ONE FOR STATE
OPERATIONS.
THE ADMINISTRATIVE COST IS
SIXTEEN MILLION DOLLARS IN TWO
THOUSAND EIGHTEEN NINETEEN.
TWENTY ONE MILLION DOLLARS IN
NINETEEN TWENTY.
AND TWENTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS
AND TWENTY TWENTY ONE.
EACH CITY ALSO REQUESTS
FIVE ANDERTON TWENTY TWO MILLION
DOLLARS IN TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN. AND LOCAL ASSISTANCE
AUTHORITY AND SEVEN HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS
I'M GOING.
FINANCE.
AND THE DEATH LEO.
YES THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR OF WE
THINK THAT THE STAFF REQUEST OF
FOR TWENTY EIGHTEEN NINETEEN HIS
SEEMS REASONABLE IT'S A IN LINE
WITH THE.
THE COST BEFORE BY THE
DEPARTMENT IN THE APPROPRIATIONS
NELSON'S ALSO LINED WITH.
PAST FUNDING LEVELS FOR PRIOR
SIMILAR BOND PACKAGES THAT THE
DEPARTMENT IS ADMINISTERED. A WE
DO JUST OFFER A COUPLE OF
COMMENTS FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION
THE FIRST IS.
THE.
AND HOW THE.
A PORTION OF THE S. B. TWO
FUNDING THAT IS INTENDED FOR A
HOMELESSNESS
I AM THE FIRST YEAR OF THE
PROGRAM. HOW THOSE FUNDS WILL BE
USED S. B. TO?
PROVIDED KIND OF BROAD
DIRECTION TO THE DEPARTMENT A TO
SPEND THIS MONEY FOR HOMELESS
SERVICES GENERALLY.
IN THE MINISTRATION IS
INDICATED THAT THEY WILL BE
UNDERTAKING A STAKEHOLDER
PROCESS TO DECIDE. HOW TO SPEND
THOSE FUNDS?
AND SO THE LEGISLATURE.
AND THE COMMITTEE WOULD WANT TO
CONSIDER.
VOICING HIS OPINION TO THE
ADMINISTRATION ABOUT WHAT IT'S
LIKE IT'S PRIORITIES ARE ARE ON.
ON HOW THIS FUNDS BE SPENT AND
ALSO CONSIDER MAYBE. EVEN UP
PROVIDING A MORE FORMAL
DIRECTION.
SO THE ADMINISTRATION ON HOW
THOSE FUNDS SHOULD BE USED.
OF THE SECOND POINT IS.
THAT THE THE PROPOSAL REQUESTS.
EIGHTY ONE STAFF AND IN
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN AND AND THE
STAFFING REQUESTS RAMPS UP OF BY
AN ADDITIONAL FORTY SEVEN
POSITIONS IN NINETEEN TWENTY AN
ADDITIONAL EIGHTEEN. AND.
TWENTY TWENTY ONE.
IN DESPITE AND AND
ALTHOUGH THERE THIS IS THIS.
THE PROPOSAL IS REQUESTING THESE
OUT YOUR POSITIONS THERE ARE
SOME UNCERTAINTIES ABOUT.
HOW QUICKLY DEMAND WILL%
MATERIALIZE FOR SOME OF THESE
PROGRAMS WHAT THE THE ULTIMATE
REVENUE LEVELS WILL BE
SUPPORTING THESE PROGRAMS?
AND WHAT THE OUTCOME OF THE.
THE STAKEHOLDER PROCESS THAT
SHAPING SOME OF THESE PROGRAMS A
WILL BEING GIVEN ALL THESE
UNCERTAINTIES OF THE LEGISLATURE
MIGHT WANT TO CONSIDER APPROVING
THE EIGHTEEN NINETEEN FOR A
STAFFING LEVEL.
IN DEFERRING APPROVAL OF THE
ADDITIONAL AUGMENTATIONS IN THE
OUT YEARS TO THE NINETEEN TWENTY
BUDGET PROCESS.
I WHICH WOULD GIVE THE
OPPORTUNITY FOR ADDITIONAL A
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT.
AND ALSO GIVEN OPPORTUNITY
CHECK BACK IN WITH THE CD.
ABOUT.
HOW THE IMPLEMENTATION OF ALL
THESE PROGRAMS IS GOING?
WITH RESPECT TO.
.
FUNDING ONE HALF OF IT GOES MY
UNDERSTANDING THE FREEZE YOUR
GHOST PLANNING AND ZONING.
GRANTS AND
EITHER ACT
CORRECT CORRECT IT SPLIT
COMPLETELY LOWER HALF BEFORE
HOMES THAT USES HALF REPLACE.
AND I NICE.
SOON.
WITHOUT BEING
CERTAIN.
PROVIDE ME SOME CERTAINTY
AT THAT PATH THAT GOES TO
PLANNING AND ZONING WILL GO TO.
PAYING FOR VARIOUS ACTIVITIES
THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH A.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEWS.
ZONING AND LAND USE ACTIVITIES
SPECIFIC PLANNED ACTIVITY IN THE
LIGHT YES A GOOD SO CERTAIN THAT
THE TIE IN WOULD BE YOU KNOW
WE'RE LOOKING AT A POTENTIAL
MENU OF ACTIVITIES IT. THAT
CLINIC IS WE NEED TO LEAD TO
INCREASED HOUSING PRODUCTION
SOME HUESO WERE LOOKING TO BE
YOUR FOR THE FLEXIBLE FOR THAT
AND ARTICLE TO FEEDBACK AND.
BEFORE I GET TO THE
HOMELESS.
WELL LET'S.
WHAT DO YOU AND?
WE DO NOT HAVE A PLAN WORKED
RATE BEFORE TODAY.
OUR EARLY AND.
NO SURPRISE WHEN HE WAS AT THE
MONEY AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
THERE HAS BEEN SUPPORT PUTTING
THINGS OUT WITH THAT IN MIND
THROUGH SOME EXISTING ROGRAMS
THAT WE MAY WANT TO MODIFY SOME
THE USES FOR. BUT WE STILL ARE
PRETTY EARLY THAT PROCESS IN THE
SENSE THAT WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT
THE FIRST QUARTER'S REVENUES ARE
GOING TO BE FOR THIS YEAR SO
WE'RE NOT PREPARED TO PUT FORTH
A PLAN.
YET BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE ALL
THE OF.
OKAY NOW THEN GIVEN THE FACT
THAT THE S. B. TWO.
IT'S DEALING WITH FEES COLLECTED
BY COUNTY RECORD IS ON THE.
RECORDATION OF VARIOUS TYPES OF
DOCUMENTS WITHIN THE COUNTY
BASED ON ACTIVITY WITHIN A
PARTICULAR COUNTY.
WHAT IS THE PLAN TO?
TRY TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IF
THERE IS ONE. TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE MONEY IS EQUITABLY
DISTRIBUTED AND THAT THE MONEY
PERHAPS.
DOESN'T TOTALLY STAY IN THE
COUNTY THAT GENERATES THE WERE
RECORDING FEES.
ELISE THAT COUNTY GETS A FAIR
SHAKE.
AT THE MONEY THAT'S GENERATED IN
THE COUNTY.
.
FOR EXAMPLE.
.
IF IF A HOMELESS COUNTIES USED.
BUT IT COUNTY HAS BEEN DOING A
REALLY GOOD JOB ON IT'S OWN IN
TRYING TO PROVIDE HOMELESS.
SERVICES.
AND THE COUNT HAPPENS TO BE LOW.
AT THE POINT TIME BECAUSE THE
COUNTIES EFFORTS HER GOOD.
AT THAT POINT IN TIME DOES THAT
COUNTY GET.
SHORT CHANGED OUT THAT'S MY TERM
NOT YOURS.
IN THE DISTRIBUTION OF THE MONEY
OR IS THERE SOME. LEVELING.
ROD THAT SUPPLIED HERE.
LOW IN THE PROCESS NOW THAT'S OF
COMPOUND QUESTION THAT I'VE BEEN
TAUGHT NOT TO ASK BUT I JUST
DESPERATE AND THERE YOU GO THE
LEGISLATURE TO BE TO YOU
LEGISLATION SAYS THAT WE MUST
LOOK AT YOUR GRAPHIC EQUITY DOES
NOT PUT FORTH THE FUNDING
FORMULA. FOR THE HOMELESSNESS.
SO SOME OF AUDIT MEAN GRAPHIC
YOU SEE GRAY OR GRAPHIC ASIDE
SHE TEACH YOU TO.
YEAH EQUITY IN TERMS OF.
THROUGHOUT THROUGHOUT
DISBURSEMENT THROUGHOUT THE
STATE THAT'S PRETTY BROAD
LANGUAGE IN TERMS OF HOW WE
DON'T BELIEVE THAT WE MUST
ADDRESS THAT BUT DOES NOT PUT
FORTH A FORMULA. BY WHICH WE DO
THAT SOME OF OUR PROGRAMS YOU
HAVE FUNDING FORMULAS THAT COULD
LOOK AT THINGS LIKE POINT TIME
COUNT.
BUT BUT THAT LEGISLATION SELF
TO NOT DIRECT.
SO HOW HOW WHAT'S THE PROCESS TO
GERMANS.
THE WHAT'S GOING.
EXAMPLE.
IS RIVERSIDE.
IN A LIVE.
SO IF RIVERSIDE COUNTY.
GENERATES A MILLION.
CORD IT.
THE RECIPE.
IS RIVERSIDE COUNTY KEY.
A MILLION DOLLARS OF THAT OR
FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND OR.
WE DON'T KNOW WE ARE NOT ALL THE
FEE COLLECTION THE FUNDS GO THE
CONTROLLER AND THEN THEY GET PUT
IN OUR COUNT I DON'T BELIEVE
THEY'RE GOING TO SAVE THE
CATHOLIC MONIES CAME FROM THE
SPECIFIC COUNTY OR ANYTHING LIKE
THAT SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY SORT
OF RELATIONSHIP.
COLLECTION.
HOW HOW DOES A SO WE CALL THEM
AND GIVEN THE FACT THAT?
WE ALL HAVE TO GO BACK TO THESE
POINTS IN.
CALIFORNIA NORRIS
SELF HOW HOW DO WE HOW DO WE
HAVE SOME ASSURANCE THAT.
HOW THE PEOPLE THAT LIVE THERE
HAVE AN ASSURANCE THAT THE FEES
THEY'RE PAYING?
ARE GOING TO SOMEHOW AT LEAST IN
PART.
HOPEFULLY IN SUBSTANTIAL PART
COME BACK TO DEAL WITH A.
HOMELESS ISSUE THAT'S AT HOME IS
THAT A FAIR QUESTION.
IT COULD BE PROBABLY BEST US THE
COMPTROLLER'S OFFICE WHO'S THE
ENTITY THAT RECEIVES THE FUNDS
FROM THE COUNTIES THEMSELVES SO
THEY WOULD MAYBE BE ABLE TO DO
AN ACCOUNTING OF WHAT'S COMING
FROM THE COUNTY WHO'S DOING A
REGULATION IS THAT. IS THAT YOU
ARE IS THAT THE CONTROL
SOMEBODY'S GOT A.
SET UP THE RULES RIGHT.
MISTER CHAIR IF I MAY JUST ON AN
ONGOING BASIS THE LEGISLATION
ACTUALLY DOES SPECIFY VERY
STRUCTURED ALLOCATION
METHODOLOGY WHICH FOLLOWS THE
FEDERAL CBG ALLOCATIONS AND FOR
THE FIRST YEAR FUNDING THAT THE
LEGISLATION WAS SILENT AS TO
HOW.
GEOGRAPHIC EQUITY IT WAS TO BE
PROVIDED AND SO WE PUT FOR
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE THAT JUST
SETS A FLOOR TO MAKE SURE THAT
EVERY JURISDICTION ACROSS THE
STATE. KNOWS THAT THEY HAVE
ACCESS TO AT LEAST A CERTAIN
PART OF FUNDING HOWEVER THIS IS
INTENDED TO BE A FLOOR AND WE
ACTUALLY EXPECT THERE TO BE MORE
FUNDING AVAILABLE AND SO. THAT
WE EXPECT TEACHERS SECTION TO BE
ABLE TO COLLECT MORE THAN JUST
THE AMOUNT THAT WAS PROVIDED IN
THAT TRAILER BILL ALLOCATION.
WELL OBVIOUSLY THIS IS A HOLD
OPEN ITEMS. WOULD HAVE VOTED ON
EARLIER BUT I I WOULD LIKE.
AND WHAT IF YOU CAN PROVIDE MORE
CLARITY AS WE SIT HERE THAT
WOULD BE NICE BUT IF NOT THE
NEXT TIME WE COME BACK I WOULD
LIKE A LOT MORE.
THE WORD GRANULARITY.
ON THIS ISSUE I WOULD LIKE TO
KNOW HOW AND I WOULD THINK THAT
PEOPLE WHO REPRESENT VARIOUS
COUNTIES IN THE STATE WOULD WANT
TO KNOW.
HOW THE MONEY IS GOING TO BE?
RETURNED.
HOW MUCH? AND WIN AGAINST THE
WIND IS PROBABLY PRETTY EASY TO
PROTECT.
THE HOW MUCH IS PROBABLY NOT
BECAUSE IF THERE'S A TRAILER
BILL WHICH I HAVE NOT SEEN.
THANK.
IT HAS A FORMULA I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THAT IS AND. I DON'T KNOW
WHAT FLORA MEANS AND IS FOR OR.
TWENTY PERCENT OF THE MONEY
THAT'S GENERATED BY A COUNTY
RECORDER'S OFFICE IN A
PARTICULAR COUNTY IS A TEN
PERCENT.
I I DON'T GET INVOLVED IN THE
CTV G..
ALLOCATION PROCESS SO I'M I'M
PERSONALLY NOT FAMILIAR WITH
THAT EITHER I DON'T KNOW IF
THESE ARE FAIR QUESTIONS I GUESS
EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT I STILL
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE ANSWERED.
SERVING SINCE.
SURE IF THE HELPFUL I CAN THEN
WE SWEPT THROUGH AT A HIGH LEVEL
WHAT THE TRUE THAT WOULD BE GOOD
BECAUSE I I SUSPECT WE MAY HAVE
SOME PUBLIC COMMENT.
.
OF RAISING ISSUES ABOUT THIS SO
IT MIGHT.
MAKE THE PUBLIC COMMENTS
MORE OR LESS BRIEF WILL SEE.
AND AND SO THE TRAILER BILL
PROPOSES AMONGST THE HOUSING
FUNDING OF THE FIRST YEAR OF SP
TWO REVENUE. TO SET A FLOOR BY
DIFFERENT CATEGORIES AND SO IN
LA COUNTY WHICH HAS THE LARGEST
SHARE THE HOMELESS POPULATION.
WE SAID AFFORD OF TEN MILLION
DOLLARS.
AND THEN THE NEXT CATEGORY
WOULD BE FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR JURISDICTIONS THAT HAVE FOUR
PERCENT OF THE HOMELESS
POPULATION ACCORDING TO THE
TWENTY SEVENTEEN.
POINT IN TIME COUNT
THEN THE NEXT GROUPING WOULD BE
ONE MILLION DOLLARS. FORWARD
JURISDICTIONS THAT HAVE OVER TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS
TO HAVE A HIT THE OTHER TWO
CATEGORIES AND FINALLY THE LAST
GROUP IS. AND TWO HUNDRED FIFTY
THOUSAND DOLLARS AVAILABLE FOR
OCZ.
A JUDGE WOULD BE THOUSAND
DOLLARS AVAILABLE FOR
JURISDICTIONS WITH LESS THAN TWO
ENGINE FIFTY.
SO I THINK THAT WAS MY EARLIER
POINT THAT WOULD NOT NECESSARILY
TAKE INTO ACCOUNT.
COUNTIES THAT HAVE BEEN
FIGURING OUT HOW TO DO IT WELL.
AND WHO READ HAVE REDUCED HAVE
MADE IT. MORE INROADS IN OTHER
COUNTIES IN REDUCING THEIR
HOMELESS COUNT.
A POINT IN TIME MOMENT.
.
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE.
.
REWARDED AND IN FACT MAY BE
PENALIZED.
VIS A VIS OTHER COUNTIES RIGHT.
WE RECOGNIZE THAT THE POINT IN
TIME CAN IS JUST ONE MEASURE ITS
OF WELL RECOGNIZED MEASURE BUT
IT DEFINITELY HAS ITS FLAWS.
IT'S MEANT TO ESTABLISH.
A FLOOR SO THAT WE CAN ENSURE
THAT EACH JURISDICTION HAS
ACCESS TO THESE FUNDS BUT WE
DON'T ANTICIPATE. EACH.
FOR BEING THE MINIMUM OR THAT
THE TOTAL AMOUNT THAT A
JURISDICTION RECEIVES IS THE
TRAILER BILL THEN GIVE.
WHOEVER'S GONNA BE MAKING THESE
DECISIONS IS IT FINANCE AND THE
GOVERNOR.
.
OR
OR WHOEVER YOU ALL.
THE ABILITY TO. UP THE ANTE IF
WE RECOGNIZE THAT A PARTICULAR
COUNTING OR SERIES OF COUNTIES
HAVE BEEN DOING AN EXTRAORDINARY
JOB IN REDUCING HOMELESSNESS.
AND MAYBE REWARD THEM WITH
ADDITIONAL MONEY EVEN THOUGH.
THE POINT IN TIME COUNT WOULD
DICTATE.
LESS MONEY
TO THEM.
AND DANIEL BRENT DEPARTMENT
FINANCING ROTH AND.
SO. THIS ALLOCATION AS ROUGHLY
ABOUT FIFTY PERCENT OF THE
ESTIMATED REVENUES AND BY FLOOR
WE MEAN THE MINIMUM AMOUNT. THAT
A LOCAL AREA WOULD BE ELIGIBLE
TO GET SAID THERE IS STILL FIFTY
PERCENT OF THE ANTICIPATED
REVENUES THAT CAN GO ABOVE AND
BEYOND WHAT WE ARE CALLING THE
FLOOR ABOUT.
SO THERE IS OTHER REVENUES THAT
CAN GO UP.
THEN THAT TIES IN WITH MY
EARLIER QUESTION AN EARLIER
QUESTION A AS SKIN CONJUNCTION
WITH AN EARLIER AGENDA ITEM THAT
WE COVERED.
MAYBE OF CENTER WIENERS.
AND THAT HAS TO DO WITH.
.
THE.
CAPACITY OF A COUPLE LARGE
JURISDICTIONS.
ON THE COAST HIGHLY URBANIZED.
FOR GOOD REASON TO SUCK THE
LIFE OUT OF EVERYTHING.
AND HOW DO YOU ASSURE THAT LOS
ANGELES.
AND YOU KNOW.
UNDER TWO OTHER VERY LARGE
COUNTIES.
GET THEM INTO YOU KNOW GET THEIR
FAIR SHARE OF MONEY AT THE SAME
TIME MAKING SURE THAT THEY'RE
STILL MONEY LEFT FOR.
THE HOWEVER MANY TEN ELEVEN
TWELVE OTHER LARGE COUNTIES.
THE MEDIUM COUNTY SIZE COUNTIES
IN THOSE COUNTIES THAT ARE UNDER
WHAT TWO. THOUSAND PEOPLE IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
MUCH LIKE WE OR SOMEBODY
DESIGNED.
THE DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM UNDER
THE NO PLACE LIKE HOME.
OF HOMELESS HOUSING BOND
ALLOCATION PROCESS.
IS THERE IS THAT BUILT INTO THIS
I THINK THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THIS
TRAILER BILL INTENDS TO DO
BECAUSE I'M EACH CITY WAS GIVEN.
THE.
THE TASK OF PROVIDING
GEOGRAPHIC EQUITY BUT THE
DETAILS HAVE YET TO BE FILLED
AND THIS IS AN ATTEMPT TO MAKE
SURE THAT EVERY JURISDICTION
ACROSS THE STATE HAS AT LEAST
ACCESS TO A MINIMUM OUT OF
FUNDING. SIMILAR TO THE NO PLACE
LIKE HOME PROGRAM IS SET UP.
WILL WE BE HEARING THE TRAILER
BILL IN THIS BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE.
UP OKAY WELL THEN I WILL BUT MY
LIPS AND WAY TOO WE.
HEAR ABOUT THAT.
.
SURVEYS ARE ANY QUESTIONS.
NO I UNDERSTAND.
ELLIOT I GIVE YOU A CHANCE AYE
FOR YET.
I'M SO.
THRALLS WITH THE SUBJECT MATTER
OF FOR YOUR RAM ANY PUBLIC
COMMENT ON THIS PARTICULAR ITEM
UP AND I KNEW THAT WOULD.
MISTER CHAIR ARM MEMBERS TELLING
OF OR SOME BEHALF URBAN COUNTIES
OF CALIFORNIA ON US.
FIRST IT WAS A WERE STRONG
SUPPORTER OF THE TARA FINANCE
MINISTRATION TRAILER BILL WHICH
DOES PROVIDE FUNDING TO
COUNTIES.
AND WE BELIEVE WE ARE THE BEST.
ORGANIZATIONS AND AND LEVEL OF
GOVERNMENT TO DELIVER THE
SERVICES THAT ARE NEEDED TO
ADDRESS THE HOMELESS PROBLEM.
BECAUSE HE PROVIDE CRITICAL CORE
SERVICES LIKE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
HEALTH. OF A FOOD UP BENEFITS
AND HOUSING ASSISTANCE.
.
THOMAS IS CONTINUES TO BE ONE OF
TOP PARTIES FOR THE URBAN
COUNTIES.
OBVIOUSLY ARE COUNTIES ARE SEEN.
INCREASES.
ON WE'RE TRYING TO ADDRESS THE
PROBLEM.
AND WE'VE WORKED VERY CLEVERLY
WITH HD ON A PLACE LIKE HOME FOR
EXAMPLE WE CREATED A TECHNICAL
WORKING GROUP WITH OUR COUNTY
PARTNERS THE SACK SEE BEACH JRC
RC. NAM AND THEY WERE VERY A
GREAT ABOUT TAKING A LOT OF OUR
COMMENTS IN THE GUIDELINES AMAL
RIGHT NOW THAT SORT OF IN LIMBO
WITH THE VALIDATION EFFORT. WE
WERE VERY PLEASED AT THAT.
A COLLABORATION SPECIFICALLY
RELATED AND I REALLY APPRECIATE
YOUR QUESTIONS ON THAT TRAIL
ABOUT WE HAVE HAD TO SIMILAR
QUESTIONS AND COUNTY LAND. OPEN
YOUR READ.
THE TRAILER BILL IT IS SPUR IS
KIND OF DIFFERENT NO PLACE LIKE
HOME NO PLACE LIKE HOME USED. BY
PERCENT OF THE STATEWIDE TOTAL
HOW HOMELESS POPULATION TO GIVE
FOUR COUNTIES INTO A DIFFERENT
POT.
NOW THE TRAILER BILL DOESN'T USE
BY PERCENT USES FOUR THOUSAND
PEOPLE HOMELESS PERSONS ON THE
TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN POINT
TIME CAUGHT UP.
COUNT IT DOESN'T USE A
PERCENTAGE.
SO WHEN YOU REJECT HER THOSE
AND LOOK.
AT WHO GETS MORE MONEY THERE'S
NOW. LIVES DIFFERENT COUNTIES.
AND LA IS NOT NAPA BECAUSE THEY
HAVE A SEPARATE POT THAT GET
FIVE MILLION. AND THE REST OF
THE URBAN SKATE ONE MILLION SO
I'VE GOTTEN A LOT OF EMAILS AND
QUESTIONS ABOUT. WELL SACRAMENTO
COUNTY FOR EXAMPLE THEY'RE ONLY
GETTING GOVERNMENT WHAT WHY WE
CAME ONLY ONE MILLION AND KNOW
WHERE AND THE TERRIBLE IS SAY
IT'S A FLOOR OR IT'S A MINIMUM.
SO I'M GLAD TO HEAR IT'S NOW
FLOOR HERE MINIMUM BUT THAT IS
NOT WITH A TRAILER BILL SAYS.
SO AM ENCLOSING WE WOULD REALLY
APPRECIATE A BETTER
UNDERSTANDING OF THE METHODOLOGY
AND HOW THEY GOT THERE AND WHY
ARE THESE SMALL TWEAKS FROM NO
PLACE LIKE HOME WHERE. ARE THEY
JUST STARTING FROM SCRATCH IS
FOR HOW THEY GOT THESE
SPEC ALLOCATIONS ON AND WE HOPE
TO CONTINUE TO WORK AT EIGHT YOU
CLEVERLY ON THESE AND
ADMINISTRATION ON THIS ISSUE.
AND WORK IT THE BEST WAY OUT
THAT WE CAN FIND FOR COUNTIES TO
ADDRESS. THE GROWING PROBLEM
WE'RE HAVING WITH HOMELESSNESS
THANK YOU THANK YOU FOR COMING
AND I WILL SAY THIS WHEN THE
TRAILER BILL COMES UP IF IT
COMES.
BEFORE THIS SUBCOMMITTEE WE'RE
GOING TO.
ALLOCATE A LITTLE BIT MORE TIME
FOR IT WE'RE GONNA DO THIS A
LITTLE BIT DIFFERENTLY.
IN TERMS OF PRESENTATIONS AND
I'M NOT GONNA BE RESTRICTING AT
LEAST MY PRESENT THOUGHT.
TWO MINUTES ON PUBLIC COMMENT
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A.
THOROUGH DISCUSSION ABOUT HOW
THE ALLOCATION FORMULA WORKS
AND.
I LAW ALSO LIKE TO HAVE SOME
IDEA AT THE TIME WE SIT DOWN AND
LIKE TO HAVE SOME IDEA OF HOW
MUCH MONEY IT AS EITHER ACTUALLY
COMING OUT OF THESE COUNTIES IN
TERMS OF RECREATION FEES. OR THE
PROJECTIONS BECAUSE I'D LIKE TO
TRY TO ALIGN.
.
SOMEONE.
LINES THAT THE WORD I'D LIKE TO
TRY TO COMPARE THAT MONEY WITH
THE MONEY COMING BACK TO THE.
THANK YOU FOR CRESCENTA THANK
YOU.
NICOLE WATERMAN ON BEHALF OF
DECEMBER MEDINA COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS AYE WE DO HAVE THE
CONCERNS WITH THE TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE THAT CAME OUT AS.
YOU OUTLINED IN ESSENCE SAN
BERNARDINO COUNTY HAS PUT A LOT
OF MONEY AND EFFORT INTO
REDUCING OUR HOMELESS POPULATION
OVER. ABOUT THE LAST TEN YEARS
AND DURING THIS TIME WHEN THE
LEGISLATURE AND GOVERNOR HAVE
DECIDED TO START LOOKING AT IT
AND PUTTING FUNDING INTO IT.
THAT MAKES IT REALLY DIFFICULT
TO LOOK BACK AT ALL THAT EFFORT
AND SEE THAT WE ARE BEING
FISCALLY PENALIZED FOR THAT.
THAT SAID WE ALSO WANT TO
REALLY.
NOTE THAT EACH CITY HAS WORKED
WITH US VERY CLOSELY IN THE LAST
COUPLE OF YEARS ON. HOMELESSNESS
FUNDING HOUSING FUNDING NO PLACE
LIKE HOME AND WE VERY MUCH
APPRECIATE THAT THAT YOU'RE
COMING.
GOOD MORNING SHARON A POOR
EXCUSE ME WITH THE CORPORATION
FOR SUPPORTIVE HOUSING. WE HAVE
STRONG RESERVATIONS WITH THE
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE.
IT DOES NOT READ RIGHT NOW IS A
FLOOR WE AGREE WTH THE
STATEMENT MADE BY THEIR URBAN
COUNTIES. AYE IS ACTUALLY SAYS
THE LESSER OF.
AND SO I WOULD SUGGEST TWEAKING
THAT LANGUAGE.
WE ALSO THINK BECAUSE IT SAYS
THAT IT'S NOT AT ALL RELATED TO
GEOGRAPHIC EQUITY FOR EXAMPLE A
LIMITING LA COUNTY TO EIGHT
PERCENT WHEN THEY HAVE FORTY
THREE PERCENT OF THE STATE'S
HOMELESS POPULATION DOES NOT
SEEM EQUITABLE.
I WE WOULD RECOMMEND OF LOOKING
AT E. OF HAVING COUNTIES OR.
OTHER ENTITIES RECEIVING FUNDS.
APPLY FOR THE FUNDING AND
DEMONSTRATE NEED UMPS YOUR
QUESTION AROUND.
HOW COUNTY CAN DEMONSTRATE NEED
IF THEY'VE ACTUALLY BEEN
REDUCING THEIR HOW MOST
CAPACITOR THE HOMELESS NUMBERS?
WE WOULD RECOMMEND LOOKING AT
THE OF A PAST HISTORY OF THAT
COUNTY IN BEING ABLE TO. PROVIDE
HOUSING AND SERVICES FOR THE
HOMELESS POPULATION IN THE
OUTCOMES THEY'VE BEEN ABLE TO
ACHIEVE. THEIR SOME COUNTIES
THAT ARE RECEIVING SO MANY NEW
HOMELESS PEOPLE EVERY DAY THAT
LOOKING JUST AT HOMELESS COUNT
WHETHER THAT'S DECREASING MAY
NOT ACTUALLY DEMONSTRATED
COUNTY'S CAPACITY.
SO WE WOULD RECOMMEND LOOKING AT
THE COUNTY'S CAPACITY AND THEN
FINALLY LOOKING AT WHETHER THEY
ARE PLANNING ON USING THE MONEY
FOR EVIDENCE BASED MODELS OF OF
ENDING HOMELESSNESS FOR THEIR
POPULATION.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANK YOU.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN BIRDS
I'M FAIRLY DATING ON BEHALF OF
THE CALIFORNIA STATE ASSOCIATION
OF COUNTIES REPRESENTING ALL
FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES IN
CALIFORNIA. AYE ECHO THE
COMMENTS OF THE PREVIOUS
SPEAKERS WE KNOW THAT THE
TRAILER BILL IS A WORK IN
PROGRESS WE APPRECIATE THAT
CLARIFICATION ABOUT THE FLOOR.
OF FUNDING AND WE HAVE BEEN.
IN INVOLVED IN THE INITIAL
OUTREACH EFFORTS WITH H. CDON
HOW TO DEVELOP HOW S. B. TO THAT
FIRST YEAR FUNDING IS
DISTRIBUTED. AND WE APPRECIATE
YOUR EFFORT AND YOUR ATTENTION
TO THIS ISSUE THINKING FOR THANK
YOU THANK YOU FOR CONTINUING TO
WORK THIS BECAUSE AS I'M SURE
YOU RECOGNIZE.
THESE FUNDS ARE BEING GENERATED
INSIDE OF COUNTIES. AND LIKE
ANYTHING ELSE PEOPLE WHO ARE
PAYING THIS MONEY WANT TO SEE
SOME OF THAT MONEY REMAIN IN THE
COUNTIES.
WHERE THEY LIVE AND WHERE
THEY'RE PAYING THE MONEY AND I
REALIZE THAT THERE ARE SOME
PLACES IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA THAT COULD?
USE EVERY BIT OF MONEY IN THAT
THIS IS GENERATING AND PROBABLY
HALF OF THE GENERAL FUND.
BUT THAT'S NOT GONNA SIT VERY
WELL BACK WHERE SOME OF US COME
FROM SO THANK YOU IT'S HE SET
FOR WORKING THIS WAS FINANCE
AND.
OTHERS THINK YOU.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR CENTER
GLAZER AYE JEAN HURST HERE TODAY
ON BEHALF OF THE RIVERSIDE
COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS WE
ALSO HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE
PROPOSED TRAILER BILL ON THE USE
OF THE POINT IN TIME COUNT. I'M
AS A MECHANISM FOR THE
ALLOCATION WE REALLY WANT
OPPORTUNITY TO BE PART OF THE
CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW TO MOVE
FORWARD ON THE ALLOCATION AND.
WE'RE CERTAINLY MAKE OURSELVES
AVAILABLE ON ANY DATA THAT WE
CAN PROVIDE TO BE HELPFUL OR
HAPPY TO DO THAT AYE BUT WE
APPRECIATE THE CONCERNS REYES
TODAY AND LOOK FORWARD TO
ADDITIONAL CONVERSATION. THANK
YOU.
ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANYTHING TO SAY
ON THIS PARTICULAR ISSUE.
WELL THIS.
ANYTHING STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS
TO HOLD THIS OPEN WE WILL I LOOK
FORWARD TO CONTINUE.
CONTINUED CONVERSATION OF
FINANCE I APPRECIATE YOUR HARD
WORK ON THIS PLEASE CONVEY THAT
DOWNSTAIRS AND A. LA YOU YOU TWO
AND WILL.
WE'LL GET TO.
GOOD PLACE HERE THANK YOU.
OF THE NEXT ISSUE IS ISSUES
THREE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES PROGRAM
THOUGH YES.
AND THIS RECOMMENDATION IS ALSO
TO HOLD OPEN BUT WHO WANTS TO
PUT.
YOU'RE BACK O THE SEAT SECOND
SIR ALL LEAD TO SOME OF.
SO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES PROGRAM
ESTABLISHED THROUGH THE
ENACTMENT OF S. B. EIGHT SIXTY
TWO GREENHOUSE GASES EMISSION
REDUCTION WHICH SOUGHT TO
FURTHER THE PURPOSES OF AB
THIRTY TO THE GLOBAL WARMING
SOLUTIONS ACT OF TWO THOUSAND
SIX.
AND SB THIRTY FIVE THE
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES AND
CLIMATE PROTECTION ACT OF TWO
THOUSAND EIGHT.
THE PROGRAM IMPLEMENTED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT. IS
CURRENTLY REVIEWING APPLICATIONS
TO FUND PROJECTS FROM THE THIRD
ROUND OF PROCEEDS FROM CAP AND
TRADE AUCTIONS.
PROJECTS FUNDED IN PREVIOUS
ROUNDS HAVE REACHED THE POINT IN
THEIR DEVELOPMENT WHERE LOAN AND
GRANT MANAGEMENT WORKLOAD. HAVE
BECOME SIGNIFICANT
AND ADDITIONAL STAFF ARE
NECESSARY TO ACHIEVE TIMELY
DELIVERY OF SERVICES TO
STAKEHOLDERS. EACH CITY IS
REQUESTING TWO MILLION SEVEN
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY TWO THOUSAND
DOLLARS AND TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN. AND TWO
MILLION SIX HUNDRED AND TWENTY
TWO THOUSAND DOLLARS ON GOING
FROM THE GREENHOUSE GAS
REDUCTION FUND.
FOR SIXTEEN POSITIONS TO
IMPLEMENT THE LATER PHASES OF
THE EACH S. C. PROGRAM.
LATER PHASES OF THE PROGRAM
INCLUDE CONSTRUCTION LOAN
CLOSING PERMANENT LOAN CLOSING.
CONTRACT MANAGEMENT PROJECT
MONITORING AND REPORTING.
FINANCE.
ELIOT.
SENATE GLAZER.
.
NOT CONTROVERSIAL ONE PUBLIC
COMMENT.
OKAY.
WELL THIS A RECOMMENDATION IS TO
HOLD OPEN SO WE WILL BE
REVISITING THIS.
BEFORE THE END OF THE PROCESS
AND LOOK FORWARD TO.
PROVING YOUR PRESS.
ISSUED OVER FIVE LONG TERM
MONITORING AND DEFAULT RESERVE.
WE GET A HOLD OPEN
RECOMMENDATION
FOR A VARIETY OF REASONS BUT.
SURE WHAT THIS IS ALL ABOUT.
OUR IT IN AGAIN A LEADING SOFT.
SO THE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
ADMINISTERS PROGRAMS THAT
PROVIDES GRANTS AND LOANS TO
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS NONPROFITS AND
STAKEHOLDERS TO CREATE MENTAL
AND HOMEOWNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES.
THROUGH LONG TERM MONITORING
EACH CD INSURERS THAT RENTAL
DEVELOPMENTS CONTINUE TO PROVIDE
SAFE AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
AND THAT PROJECTS REMAIN. WELL
MAINTAINED AND FINANCIALLY
SOUND.
EACH CD FUNDS ITS LONG TERM
MONITORING REQUIRING AN ANNUAL
POINT FOUR TWO PERCENT INTEREST
PAYMENTS. ON LOANS PRINCIPLE
INSECTICIDE UP TO FOUR PERCENT
OF FUNDS APPROPRIATED TO CURE OR
AVERT POTENTIAL DEFAULTS OVER
THE FIFTY FIVE YEAR LIFE OF EACH
LONG.
THE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT PROPOSES
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE TO
STREAMLINE THE ADMINISTRATION OF
LONG TERM MONITORING. PROVIDE
CONSISTENCY ACROSS ALL RENTAL
PROGRAMS AND DECREASE THE RISK
OF DEFAULT OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECTS BY AUTHORIZING THE
FOLLOWING.
FIRST THAT E. H. S. C. V. HELP
AND TODD PROGRAMS.
WOULD COLLECT A POINT FOUR TWO
PERCENT MONITORING FEE FOR FIFTY
FIVE YEAR MONITORING ACTIVITY.
AND SIMILARLY THAT THOSE SAME
PROGRAMS WOULD BE AUTHORIZED TO
ESTABLISH DEFAULT RESERVE
ACCOUNT.
EACH CITY IS REQUESTING
AUTHORIZATION TO DEPOSIT THE
POINT FOUR TWO PERCENT
MONITORING FEES INTEREST AND
LOAN REPAYMENTS INTO FUND ZERO
NINE TWO NINE.
WE'RE REQUESTING AUTHORIZATION
THAT DEFAULT RESERVE FUNDS.
BE ALLOWED TO BE USED WITHOUT
PROGRAM DESIGNATION
RESTRICTIONS.
AND WHERE ADDITIONALLY
REQUESTING TO POSITIONS FOR LONG
TERM MONITORING ONE FOUR EIGHT
CHESSIE. AND ONE FOR THE
VETERANS HOUSING THE HOMELESS
PREVENTION PROGRAM.
AS WELL AS TO POSITIONS TO BE
USED TO AWARD FUNDS PREVIOUSLY
HELD AS DEFAULT RESERVES.
BUT IT.
DOYLE.
HOW OFTEN HAS THE DEFAULT
RESERVE ACCOUNT BEEN TAPPED IN
ANY OF?
FOR ANY OF WITH REGARD ANY
VISICALC.
I'M WILL WE WE DID AN ANALYSIS
OF THE DEFAULT RESERVE LOOKING
AT. IF YOU KNOW IT WAS THE FOUR
PERCENT TO HIRE TO LOW. UM OUR
EXPENDITURES FROM DEFAULT
RESERVE HAVE BEEN RELATIVELY LOW
AND HAVE GENERALLY BEEN MORE TO
PREVENT DEFAULT THAN ACTUALLY.
YOU KNOW ESSENTIALLY. ACARNANIA
AND AT THE TIME IT DEFAULT ON IF
THE PROJECT IS IN TROUBLE WE
MAKE EVERY ATTEMPT TO WORK WITH
THAT PROJECT GET BACK ON TRACK.
AND WORE IT IF NOT TO IDENTIFY
ANOTHER.
HOUSING SPONSOR WHO WOULD TAKE
OVER THAT PROPERTY IS AFFORDABLE
HOUSING.
SO GENERALLY I IT'S BEEN IN THE
AREA OF.
MAKING INSURANCE PAYMENTS ARE
PROPERTY TAX PAYMENTS MAKING
TRUSTEE FLOWS. AND THOSE THINGS
IN SUPPORT OF PREVENTING A
DEFAULT.
ON IT IS ON THE BASIS OF THAT
ANALYSIS.
THAT WE'RE RECOMMENDING A
DECREASE IN THE DEFAULT RESERVE
TO ONE POINT FIVE PERCENT.
SO WE'RE GONNA POOL OF THESE
ACCOUNTS FOR.
YES
SO IS THERE ANY DANGER OF THE
OTHER WRIST AS MY QUESTIONING
OFTEN IT'S TAPPED IS THERE ANY
DANGER. ABOUT IF YOU HAVE A
DEFAULT YOU GONNA BLEED INTO
SOMEBODY ELSE'S DEFAULT MONEY.
LIKE VERY SIMPLE WAY OF ASKING
IF THAT MAKES SENSE.
FEDERAL LAWYER WE MAINTAIN TRUST
ACCOUNTS AND WE HAVE TO MAINTAIN
THE FOR EACH CLIENT.
AND YOU DON'T TAKE MONEY FROM
ONE TRUST ACCOUNT CLIENT THAT.
YOU SHOULD BE TAKING IT FROM
ANOTHER THAT'S A NO NO.
IS THERE A PROBLEM PACKAGE A
PROBLEM HERE WITH YOUR PULLED.
FAULT ACCOUNT.
I AM MISTER JENKINS A TO THIS A
LITTLE BIT.
WE'RE ACTUALLY REFERS ó YOU
CAN TELL ME IT'S NOT AN
INTELLIGENT QUESTION.
NO IT NNST. SO WE'RE ACTUALLY
PROPOSING TO FOOL THE DEFAULT
RESERVES ACROSS THE COUNSELOR
THE RISK OF THE ENTIRE PORTFOLIO
CURRENTLY EACH DEFAULT IS HELD
IN A SEPARATE ACCOUNT A SEPARATE
FUND.
AND SEPARATE LEVEL RANGING FROM
FOUR PERCENT DOWN TO THREE
PERCENT DOWN TO NO REQUIREMENT
FOR DEFAULT SO WHERE I'M
PROPOSING TO PULL ALL THE
DEFAULT RESERVES TO LOWER THE
RISK AND PULL. FROM THAT BEFORE
RESERVE FOR THE VARIOUS PROGRAMS
IT DOESN'T SOUND LIKE IT USE
VERY MUCH ANYWAY.
WELL THAT MAKES MY QUESTION SORT
OF MOVED AND THEN I HAVE ONE
OTHER WHAT WE PROPOSE TO DO WITH
THE ELEVEN MILLION.
SEND OUT YOUR NOSE FUND.
RIGHT.
WE INTEND TO COMBINE THAT WITH.
SOME MONEY THAT WE HAVE
AVAILABLE FROM A DISTANT
CONFERENCES AND WE WILL HAVE.
.
WE WILL PULLED OUT WITH ANOTHER
FIFTY EIGHT MILLION ACT YOU
OFFER A NOVA IN THE.
SUPPORTED HOUSING MHP PROGRAM.
HAVE WE ARE AVERAGE AWARD IN
THAT PROGRAM IS FOUR POINT SIX
MILLION DOLLARS FOR BASED ON
THAT WE WOULD DO ABOUT FIFTEEN
PROJECTS.
AND WE BELIEVE WE COULD PRODUCE
AROUND EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY UNITS
GOOD THANK YOU.
THEN RETURN QUESTIONS.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS
PARTICULAR ITEM THIS IS A HOLD
OPEN ITEM.
NO PUBLIC COMMENT.
THAT'S IT.
AND ONE INFORMATIONAL ITEM ON.
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK
GRANT PROGRAM REDESIGN.
BUT LOWEST OF THE HUTS.
GOOD MORNING GOOD MORNING THANK
YOU FOR JOINING.
A PLEASURE I'M JENNY PETTIFORD
I'M ASSISTANT DEPUTY DIRECTOR
WITH THE DIVISION OF FINANCIAL
ASSISTANCE IN THE DEPARTMENT OF
HOUSING AND COMMUNITY
DEVELOPMENT.
AND I AM I. ONE OF THE STAFF
MEMBERS WHOSE MOST DIRECTLY
INVOLVED IN LEADING THE CITY BG
PROGRAM REDESIGN EFFORT.
CURRENTLY UNDER WAY.
I DID WANT TO NOTE THAT.
IN THE INFORMATIONAL PACKET.
IT'S TRUE THAT THE CITY BGP
PROGRAM RECEIVES FUNDING FROM
HIDE EVERY YEAR AND WE WISH IT
WAS FOUR HUNDRED TWENTY NINE
MILLION. IT IS ACTUALLY TAUGHT
PROXIMALLY TWENTY NINE MILLION.
ANNUALLY THAT WE RECEIVE.
JUST WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT
AFTER ALL OF THE SIGNIFICANT. WE
WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THAT MUCH
FUNDING AVAILABLE.
WORK ON THAT.
JUST VERY BRIEFLY WANTED TO. UP
POINT OUT THAT WE STARTED
ENGAGING IN THE CITY BG REDESIGN
EFFORT AYE IN ABOUT JULY OF TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN IN RESPONSE
TO CONCERNS THAT HAD BEEN
EXPRESSED BY STAKEHOLDERS LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS AND ASSOCIATIONS.
ALONG WITH THE LEGISLATURE AND
ALSO CONCERNS EXPRESSED BY.
THE U. S.
I DEPARTMENT OF HOUSING AND
URBAN DEVELOPMENT AND WE'VE BEEN
ENGAGED IN A VERY ACTIVE
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS WE HAVE A
REDESIGN WORKING GROUP.
THAT MEETS MONTHLY AND ALSO
INCLUDES OUR PARTNERS FROM.
THE OFFICE THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE AND ALSO ASSUME LEAD
STAFF ALONG WITH LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS REPRESENTATIVES OF
SOME OF THE KEY MEMBERSHIP
ASSOCIATION SUCH AS THE RURAL
COUNTIES IN THE CALIFORNIA
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT LOCAL
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
ASSOCIATION.
AND WE HAVE BEEN ENGAGED
PRIMARILY.
TO DATE IN GATHERING LISTENING
TO ALL OF THE IN PUTTING
GATHERING A PRETTY COMPREHENSIVE
LIST OF WHAT SOME OF THE ISSUES
ARE THAT NEED TO BE ADDRESSED IN
PROGRAM REDESIGN.
AND THEY'RE ESSENTIALLY.
WHAT I CONSIDER THE THREE
PRIMARY GOALS FROM REDESIGN
FIRST AND FOREMOST IT'S TWO? OF
STREAMLINED THE PROGRAM AND MAKE
IT LESS ADMINISTRATIVELY
CUMBERSOME FOR OUR LOCAL
PARTNERS.
AS WELL AS STREAMLINE THE
PROGRAM SO THAT WE CAN
ADMINISTERED EFFECTIVELY WITHIN
OUR STAFFING MEANS
I'M WE HAVE EXPERIENCED A
REDUCTION. IN THE FUNDING FOR
STAFF TO ADMINISTER THE PROGRAM
AT THE STATE LEVEL FROM AYE
NINETEEN POSITIONS TO ELEVEN
POSITIONS AND SO THAT HAS.
REQUIRED US TO TAKE A LOOK
INTERNALLY AND HOW WE ARE
OPERATIONALLY OP PROGRAM
OPERATIONALLY MANAGING THE
PROGRAM. AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE
JUST RECENTLY.
GONE THROUGH SOME CONSOLIDATION
OF VARIOUS FUNCTIONS TO TRY AND.
STREAMLINED AND MAKE IT MORE
CONSISTENT
I INTERNALLY SO THAT IT CAN BE.
WE CAN MANAGE THE PROGRAM MORE
EFFECTIVELY WITHIN OUR MEANS.
A THIRD GOAL IS REALLY TO
RESPOND TO SOME OF THE HAD
CONCERNS THAT PRIMARILY REVOLVE
AROUND. CALIFORNIA HAVING A
STRICTLY LOW EXPENDITURE RATE
FOR GRANT FUNDS AND HISTORICALLY
HIGH. LEVEL OF UNSPENT PROGRAM
INCOME.
THAT LOCAL JURISDICTIONS ARE
REQUIRED TO SPEND IN ORDER AND
PRIOR TO DRAWING DOWN THERE
THEIR GRANT FUNDS.
AND SO THOSE ARE SORT OF THOSE
ARE SO SOME OF THE KEY ISSUES
THAT WE ARE ACTUALLY ENGAGED IN
WITH OUR LOCAL PARTNERS.
TO SORT OF THINK THROUGH HOW
CAN WE DESIGN A PROGRAM. THAT
WILL MAKE IT EASIER FOR LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS A TO PARTICIPATE
IN THE PROGRAM.
BE TO SPEND DOWN THEIR
PROGRAMMING COMES SO THEY CAN
GET ACCESS TO THE GRANT FUNDS
AND THEN TO REALLY WORK WITH
OUR.
LOCAL PARTNERS TO MAKE SURE THE
GRANT FUNDS ARE BEING SPENT.
ON WE HAVE SEVERAL GUIDING
PRINCIPLES THAT WE'RE USING IN
THE REDESIGN WORK.
ONE OF WHICH IS REALLY LOOKING
AT THIS IS A PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN
THE DEPARTMENT AND OUR LOCAL
PARTNERS WE RECOGNIZE THAT. THE
SUCCESS OF THIS PROGRAM
REALLY-REQUIRES US TO WORK IN
PARTNERSHIP WITH JURISDICTIONS
TO MAKE SURE THAT. IT'S AS EASY
AS POSSIBLE FOR THEM TO SUCCEED.
IN USING THESE GRANT FUNDS TO
ACCOMPLISH THE PURPOSES.
THAT THEIR SET OUT TO TO BE
USED FOR AND TO ADDRESS
COMMUNITY NEEDS.
ANOTHER GUIDING PRINCIPLE IS ONE
OF CONTINUAL PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT
RECOGNIZING THAT. THAT. THANKS
TO S. B. ONE OF SIX A LAST YEAR
WE NOW HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO.
DEVELOP GUIDELINES RATHER THAN
REGULATIONS FOR THE PROGRAM AND
THAT ALLOWS THE DEPARTMENT TO BE
MUCH MORE NIMBLE. IN RESPONDING
TO FEEDBACK FROM LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS
I REGARDING WAYS TO IMPROVE THE
PROGRAM SO WE HAVE A REAL
COMMITMENT TO NOT ONLY DESIGNING
THE PROGRAM NOW. BUT ALSO
CONTINUING TO REVISIT IT AS
NEEDED TO TWEAK IT.
DOWN THE ROADTO IN RESPONSE TO
FEEDBACK FROM STAKEHOLDERS.
I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS YOU GO INTO MORE
DETAIL BUT I'D HAPPY I THINK
I'LL STOP THERE IN LESS.
WHERE YOU COLLEAGUES SWEATER THE
ONE OF THE SPECIFIC IMPEDIMENTS
SMALL CITIES AND COUNTIES?
HAVE.
TERMS OF ACCESSING
CBG.
OF PROGRAM.
MONEY.
AND AND WHAT ARE WE DOING TO FIX
THAT
THAT'S THAT'S IT EXCELLENT
QUESTION IF ONE OF THE ISSUES
THAT'S COME UP IS THE BIG
CAPACITY AT THE LOCAL LEVEL.
TWO HALVES RETAIN AND HAVE STAFF
THAT ARE KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT THE
PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS AND THEN
THE NEED TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL
ASSISTANCE.
TO WORK WITH THOSE JURISDICTIONS
TO MAKE SURE THEY UNDERSTAND
WHAT THE REQUIREMENTS ARE OF THE
PROGRAM. AND THAT WE'RE REALLY
PROVIDING MORE.
.
USER FRIENDLY CUSTOMER.
FRIENDLY I.
KINDS OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
AND SUPPORT TO FACILITATE
JURISDICTIONS BEING SUCCESSFUL.
IN APPLYING FOR FUNDS SO THERE'S
A CAPACITY ISSUE. A I THINK AT
THE LOCAL LEVEL THAT WE'RE
WORKING WITH OUR PARTNERS IN THE
REDESIGN WORKING GROUP TO.
DEVELOP STRATEGIES FOR HOW CAN
WE ADDRESS THIS KIND OF ONGOING
ISSUE.
ESPECIALLY IN SMALL IN RURAL
JURISDICTIONS WHERE OFTEN THE
PERSON WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR
ADMINISTERING THE CBG PROGRAM IS
ALSO.
WEARING A VARIETY OF OTHER HATS
TERMS OF CAPACITY IS REALLY
ANOTHER WAY OF SAYING. SOMEONE
WHOSE BOOTS ON THE GROUND WHO
KNOWS HOW TO DRAFT A GRANT
PROPOSAL BUT IT'S IT'S MORE THAN
THE GRANT PROPOSALBUT BUT
ESSENTIALLY KNOWS HOW TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE PROJECTS ARE ARE
GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL KNOWS THE
DIFFERENCE STEPS AND HOW TO MAKE
SURE THE PROGRAM INCOME. FOR
EXAMPLE IS SPENT.
I'M ONE OF THE ISSUES I THINK
THAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING WITH
STAKEHOLDERS ABOUT. ENSURING
THAT PROJECTS THAT ARE FUNDED
REALLY WHAT WE CALL SHOVEL
READY.
THEY'VE THEY'VE GONE THROUGH
ENOUGH OF THE STEPS THAT WILL
THE PLANNING PROCESS THAT WILL
ENSURE THAT WHEN THE GRANT IS
MADE.
FUNDS WILL BE USED IN A TIMELY
MANNER TO ACCOMPLISH
PROGRAMMER PROJECT THAT THAT HAS
BEEN FUNDED SO DO YOU HAVE A
ISN'T.
AGENTS.
.
DO YOU HAVE THE MONEY TO SORT
OF.
BLOCK OUT TO RESOURCES AND
DESIGNATE THEM AND SEGREGATE
THEM TO PROVIDE THE KIND OF
HANDS ON.
ASSISTANCE THAT A SMALL CITY OR
COUNTY REALLY NEEDS.
AS OPPOSED TO.
CITY OF THREE FOUR THOUSAND OR
LET ALONE LOS ANGELES FOR THE
CITY AND COUNTY OF SAN FRANCISCO
OR SAN DIEGO. AYE IT'S A HUGE
CHALLENGE ESPECIALLY WITHIN OUR
REDUCED STAFF RESOURCES ON IT'S
CLEAR FROM THE CONVERSATIONS
WITH STAKEHOLDERS THAT PROVIDING
THAT KIND OF TECHNICAL SUPPORT
AND ASSISTANCE IS REALLY
CRITICAL.
I THINK ONE OF THE REASONS THAT
WE HAVE OUR ASSOCIATIONS IN
PARTNERSHIP WITH PART OF THE
REDESIGN WORKING GROUP. IS THAT
ONE STRATEGY FOR ENSURING THAT
SMALL AND RURAL LOCAL A JERK
JURISDICTIONS GET ACCESS.
TO BETTER SUPPORT IS USING IN
LEVERAGING RURAL COUNTIES IN THE
LEAGUE OF
CITIES.
AND THE CALIFORNIA LOCAL
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATION
AND WE CAN'T DO IT ALONE WE'RE
LOOKING AT. STRATEGIES SUCH AS
MAKING SURE THAT OUR WEBSITE IS
REALLY CURRENT AND PROVIDES
DIRECT LINKS TO SOME OF THE
TRAINING RESOURCES THAT HIDE
PROVIDES.
BUT AGAIN IT'S IT'S AN OPEN
QUESTION THAT WE'RE WORKING HAND
IN HAND WITH OUR. LOCAL PARTNERS
TO TRY AND ADDRESS
WELL YOU KNOW IT'S AN EQUITY
ISSUE IS AN UP AND DOWN THE
STAGE WE SEE THAT ALL THE TIME.
IF IT'S CITY BGT DAY IT'S
MENTAL HEALTH FUNDING TOMORROW
IT'S.
CORD FUNDING. DAY AFTER TOMORROW
IT'S AN EQUITY ISSUE WELL AND
DOES IT HAVE HAVE AND THOSE THAT
HAVE MY TEAM YOU TO HAVE NOT AND
SO. I GUESS MY COMMENT IN
QUESTION GOES TO.
AS PART OF YOUR.
ANALYSIS IN TERMS OF HOW TO
REDESIGN THE PROGRAM.
I WOULD CERTAINLY ASK YOU TO
TAKE A LOOK AT THEM AND I
REALIZE WERE A BUDGET CONSISTS.
STRAINED.
STATE ALWAYS HAVE BEEN ALWAYS
WILL BE EVEN IN TIMES OF.
PLENTY SO TO SPEAK
pLOOK AT YOUR STAFFING LEVEL
AND.
AND SEE IF IT IN FACT.
.
S. NEED IS GREAT ENOUGH TO
JUSTIFY BCP TO. PROVIDE SOME
STAFFING.
AT THE STATE LEVEL TO PICK TO
HELP THE SMALL. OF CITIES AND
COUNTIES THAT.
UNDOUBTEDLY WILL NEVER.
HAVE THE ASSETS RESOURCES.
TO DO WHAT REALLY NEEDS
THE DONE IN ORDER TO
SUCCESSFULLY COMPETE.
IN ANY ARENA. INCLUDING THE C.
D. BG.
ARENA.
BECAUSE IT'S OUR JOB UP HERE
EVEN WHEN WE DON'T REPRESENT.
AS A LEGISLATOR.
TO MAKE SURE THAT WE.
TREAT.
TRY TO HAVE SOME EQUITY IN THIS
STATE.
ABSOLUTELY I THINK YOU KNOW THE
LARGER JURISDICTIONS DO GET AN
ENTITLEMENT DIRECTLY FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR. ON THE
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK
GRANT PROGRAM AND SO THE STATE
OUR DEPARTMENT ADMINISTERS THE
PROGRAM FOR WHAT ARE CALLED NON
ENTITLEMENT JURISDICTIONS WHICH
BY DEFINITION ARE THE SMALLER
AND AND PRIMARILY RURAL.
JURISDICTIONS IN THE STATE BUT
NONE THE LESS YOUR POINT IS WELL
TAKEN. IN THAT ON PART OF WHAT
WE'RE LOKING AT AND REDESIGN IS
IS WHICH JURISDICTIONS HAVE BEEN
SUCCESSFUL APPLICANTS OVER THE
LAST FIVE YEARS FOR FUNDS AND.
WHICH HAVEN'T AND HOW CAN WE
REALLY SUPPORT.
SOME ADDITIONAL JURISDICTIONS
FROM SUCCESSFULLY PARTICIPATING.
IN THE PROGRAM COULD BECAUSE.
THOSE SMALL CITIES AND COUNTIES
DON'T REALLY HAVE MUCH IF ANY OF
A VOICE.
OUTSIDE THISBUILDING AND
FRANKLY INSIDE THIS BUILDING
AND.
YOU KNOW WE NEED TO.
STOP AND TAKE A BREATH AND TRY
TO TAKE CARE OF THEM. ABSOLUTELY
HAS BEEN HOW CAN AN AND THEY
DEFINITELY HAVE A VOICE ON THE
REDESIGN WORKING GROUP WE HAVE A
VERY ACTIVE.
GROUP THAT AIN'T THAT INVOLVES
AN OF QUITE A NUMBER ABOUT
TWENTY I BELIEVE LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS GOOD WHO DIRECTLY
REPRESENT.
THE JURISDICTIONS THAT RECEIVES
TBG FUNDS.
WELL GOOD THIS IS AN
INFORMATIONAL I LOOK FORWARD TO
CONTINUING HERE FROM YOU AS YOU
COMPLETE YOUR REDESIGN AND IF
YOU LOOK ON THIS AT THIS
PARTICULAR POINT.
SPECIFICALLY AND ALL THE OTHER
ONES YOU MENTIONED THE FINANCE
ANY COMMENT.
LA JOH NA CAO IN ANY PUBLIC
COMMENT ON THIS PARTICULAR
ISSUE.
I'M HEARING NONE THANK YOU VERY
MUCH THANK YOU SO MUCH.
OKAY. LET'S MOVE ON TO OFFICE OF
PLANNING AND RESEARCH ITEMS ZERO
SIX FIVE ZERO THE FIRST ISSUE
IS.
ISSUE NUMBER ONE CALIFORNIA
INSTITUTE TO ADVANCE PRECISION
HEALTH AND MEDICINE
.
THE MORE GOOD MORNING STILL
ALMOST.
LET ME ASK YOU TO IDENTIFY
YOURSELF STARTING AT THE TABLE
TO MY LEFT YOU'RE RIGHT SIR GOOD
SENIOR. DIRECTOR GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE PLAYING RESEARCH MARIO.
I WAS WITH BAKA GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE OF PLANNING RESEARCH
SENIOR HEALTH ADVISER.
SEE YOU AGAIN THIS YEAR IT'S
BEEN A YEAR.
JOSH DUGGAR DEPARTMENT FINANCE.
OKAY YES WE'RE SOMEWHAT FAMILIAR
WITH PRECISION MEDICINE SO YOU
IT'S HERE TO STAY SO WHAT I AM
DOING.
A.
YES WELL AND THINK IT'S A
PLEASURE TO BE HERE WITH YOU
THIS MORNING SHARING OUR WORK ON
PRECISION MEDICINE.
IS IS JUST TOO TIMID TO GIVE A
REAL SOON WILLIE QUICK SUMMARY
WE WE STARTED WITH AN INITIAL
INVESTMENT OF THREE MILLION
DOLLARS AND CENTS HAVE REALLY
GROWN TO TWENTY THREE MILLION.
AND WITH PRIVATE SECTOR ANOTHER
INVESTMENT THAT'S BECOME A
THIRTY THREE MILLION DOLLAR
INITIATIVE IN AND A COUPLE OF
YEARS IT'S BEEN.
PRETTY AMAZING.
THIS IS BEEN A PARTNERSHIP WITH
THE OPR WITH AN INTERAGENCY
AGREEMENT WITH YOU SEE HEALTH
WITH UCSF TAKING THE LEAD AND
THEY'VE BEEN TREMENDOUS
PARTNERS.
BUT TODAY WE'RE HERE TO TALK
ABOUT THE BUDGET AND IN THE
FOREST WHICH IS THAT THIRTY
MILLION DOLLAR PROPOSED BUDGET
ITEM. TO ESTABLISH THAT IN
CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE SO MOVING
FROM INITIATIVE TO INSTITUTE.
I OF PRECISION HEALTH AND
MEDICINE.
I WAS SO REALLY JUST REALLY
QUICKLY TO RECAP.
PRECISION MEDICINE AT THE HEART
IS REALLY ABOUT ALL THE DATA SO
IT'S ELECTRONIC HEALTH RECORD
DATA IMAGING DATA GENOMIC
BEHAVIOR LIFESTYLE ALL OF THAT
IT'S REALLY TAKING ALL OF THAT
DATA AND TURNING IT INTO.
KNOWLEDGE TO BE ABLE TO DO PRINT
BETTER PREVENTION AND TREATMENT.
AND CARE
AND REALLY IT'S BEEN A
PHENOMENAL WE AGAIN WE STARTED
WITH DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS AND.
WE NOW HAVE A DEMONSTRATION
PROJECTS.
RANGING FROM WORKING TAKE TO
FIND NEW LEADS FOR KIDS WITH
CANCER TOO TRYING TO PREDICT AND
PREVENT A MAJOR CARDIAC EVENTS
BEFORE THEY HAPPEN.
AS WELL AS A LOOKING AT IMAGING
FOR BRAIN ISSUES TO TRY TO
DETECT BELIEVES BEFORE IT YOU
KNOW TO TO RAISE THEM UP AND AND
LEVEL OF PRIORITY. AND ONE OF
THE OTHER ONES THAT WAS ONE OF
THE FIRST PROJECTS FUNDED
ACTUALLY IS AN INFECTIOUS
DISEASE AND IS NOW CLEAR
CERTIFIED.
LAB SO FOR FOR FOR.
PEOPLE WHO END UP IN THE
INTENSIVE CARE UNIT WITH A VERY
DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE DISEASE
THEY CAN TAKE THE SPINAL FLUID
THEY CAN LOOK AT EVERYTHING IN
THERE AND THEY'RE ABLE TO DETACH
WITH THE INFECTIOUS AGENT IS OR
NOT.
AND I AND IT'S ACTUALLY BEEN.
USED INTERNATIONALLY SO OHER
COUNTRIES HAVE ACTUALLY SANTA
AND.
THEIR SAMPLES TO BE ABLE TO TO
LEVERAGE THIS TECHNOLOGY THAT
WE'VE GOT.
DEVELOPED HERE IN CALIFORNIA.
SO ONE OF THE THINGS I'M IS THAT
WE'VE ALSO BEEN REALLY MOVING
FORWARD SO WE.
IN ADDITION TO ALL OF THE
DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS WHICH
HAVE BEEN GOING PHENOMENALLY
WELL.
AND THIS INCLUDES OVER FIFTY
PARTNERS OUT NOVEL PARTNERSHIPS
HERE WITHIN CALIFORNIA ACROSS
INDUSTRY WITH ACADEMIC
INSTITUTIONS ENTREPRENEURS THE
PUBLIC SECTOR.
WE ALSO.
HAVE THE GUN ALSO ESTABLISH THE
PRECISION MEDICINE ADVISORY
COMMITTEE WHICH IS STARTING TO
TRANSITION FROM DEMONSTRATION
PROJECTS AGAIN TO LOOKING MORE
AT THOSE BIGGER POLICY ISSUES
THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE FACING
HEARING CALIFORNIA. AS PERCENT
PRECISION MEDICINE ROLES FORWARD
SO WE HAVE A TREMENDOUS
OPPORTUNITY TO HELP INFORM THAT.
AND THE REASON THAT WE ARE NOW
AT THIS TRANSITION POINT IS HOW
DO WE CONTINUE TO MOVE FROM AN
INITIATIVE WHICH HAS BEEN KIND
OF A YEAR BY YEAR.
BASIS TO SOMETHING THAT'S MORE
SUBSTANTIAL AN ON GOING TO
CONTINUE TO DO THIS GREAT WORK.
SO I KNOW ONE OF THE QUESTIONS
IS WHY NONPROFIT.
I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS WE'VE
TALKED ABOUT IS THE I'M PRESS
AND THE LEVEL OF COLLABORATION
THAT IT REQUIRES TO BRING ALL
THESE DIFFERENT PARTIES
TOGETHER.
IT'S NOT USUALLY THE NORM TO TO
BRING INSTITUTIONS AND AND
DIFFERENT AYE SECTORS TOGETHER
IN THIS WAY TO COLLABORATE. AND
SO WHAT WE'VE DONE IS LOOKED AT
A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT EXAMPLES
THAT ARE OUT THERE.
I THINK THE TWO THAT ARE MOST.
KIND OF SIMILAR TO THIS KIND OF
INITIATIVE ONE IS THE CANCER
BIDEN INITIATIVE.
WHICH WAS A REALLY BUILDING OFF
OF THE WORK THAT HAVE BEEN UNDER
THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION FOR THE
CANCER MOON SHOT.
AND AS WELL AS THE PARKER
INSTITUTE WHICH IS AGAIN KIND OF
FOCUSED ON CANCER.
IN TERMS OF.
PRECEDENT AT THE STATE LEVEL
WE'VE LOOKED AT DIFFERENT.
MODELS.
OF NONPROFITS THAT HAVE EMERGED
FROM WORK AT THE STATE SO ONE IS
ON THE CALIFORNIA HEALTH
EDUCATIONS PROFESSION FUND.
AS WELL AS VISIT CALIFORNIA
WHICH WAS A MODEL THAT WAS.
ESTABLISHED AT SEVEN ESTABLISH
SEPARATE NONPROFIT A AND THEN
HAD SOME ST FUNDING AND THEN
OTHER PRIVATE SECTOR FUNDS.
SO AGAIN AS WE MOVE TO TO THE
NEXT STAGE IT'S REALLY TO THINK
ABOUT.
WITH THE INSTITUTE WITH THE
BUDGET PROPOSAL IS TO NOT ONLY
DO DEMONSTRATION PROJECTS WHICH
HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO
LEARN THESE LESSONS BUT ALSO TO
MOVE INTO THE TRANSLATIONAL SIDE
BEYOND YOU KNOW SMALLER PROJECTS
BUT THINKING ABOUT HOW TO BRING
THIS TO. ALL CALIFORNIANS ACROSS
THE STATE.
WE WOULD BE WORKING ON THINGS
SUCH AS GETTING SUCCESSFUL
OUTCOMES INTEGRATED INTO
CLINICAL CARE.
THINKING ABOUT OF FACILITATING
PAIR REIMBURSEMENTS OF PROVEN
ADVANCES.
AS WELL AS COORDINATING DATA
SHARE DATA SHOWING ACROSS
INSTITUTIONS AND CONTINUING TO
PROMOTE THESE DIFFERENT.
COLLABORATIONS ACROSS
CALIFORNIA AND BEYOND.
SO I'LL STOP THERE AND.
WOULD LOVE TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS WHY ASSUME THAT THE
NON MAYBE YOU SAID THIS IN A
DIFFERENT WAY I ASSUMED OF.
PART OF THE PURPOSE AND
ORGANIZING AND NON PROFIT TAKING
THE THIRTY MILLION AS TO.
STAND UP THIS INSTITUTE
THAT WOULD THEN BE ABLE TO
ATTRACT.
.
OTHER.
PUBLIC AND PRIVATE FUNDS
TO REDUCE THE ASKED TO THE
GENERAL FUND BUDGET PERHAPS
THAT IS CORRECT YES THAT IS
RIGHT.
SO WHILE.
THAT WE'VE GOT A GOVERNOR THIS
GOVERNOR THE NEXT GOVERNOR.
WOULD BE ABLE TO.
HAVE A BUDGET PROPOSAL TO TAKE
GENERAL FUND MONEY IN DIRECTOR
THE INSTITUTE IF THE GOVERNOR SO
DESIRED. OF. THE INSTITUTE.
HOPEFULLY WOULD BE ABLE TO
GENERATE MUCH OF ITS OPERATING
REVENUE NEEDS.
FROM OUTSIDE THE GENERAL FUND
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN ORDER
TO ASSURE CONTINUITY.
AND BUDGET GOOD TIMES IN BUDGET
BED TIME IS THAT RIGHT YES YES
AND THAT'S I MEAN EVEN.
WITH THE CURRENT.
FUNDS AND IT'S REALLY BEEN ON
THE FIRST THIRTEEN MILLION THAT
WE'VE GOTTEN THE TEN MILLION OF
OTHER NON STATE FUNDS TO COME
IN.
SO THERE'S A HUGE POTENTIAL TO
BRING EVEN MORE FUNDING INTO
THIS I UNDERSTAND.
I GET.
SENATE VERSION QUESTIONS
FINANCE.
A THINK OUT AT THIS TIME OTHER
THAN ECHOING DOCTOR BACCHUS
COMMENTS THAT.
ESTABLISHING THIS INSTITUTE
WOULD REALLY.
ENABLE AND THE STATE TO TAKE
THOSE FINDINGS SO FAR AND
INCORPORATE THEM IN THE BROADER
HEALTH CARE DELIVERY SYSTEM.
WE OWE.
PUBLIC COMMENT.
.
GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIRMAN
THANK YOU FOR ALLOWING ME TO A
MAKE COMMENTS I'M FRED MYERS I'M
A MEDICAL ONCOLOGIST OF THE
CANCER PHYSICIAN AND RESEARCHER
AT UC DAVIS TIMELY.
DAVIS REPRESENTATIVE TO THE
AREA GOVERNOR'S ADVISORY COUNCIL
ON PRECISION MEDICINE IN MY ROLE
AS ASSOCIATE DEAN.
FOR PRECISION MEDICINE I
APPRECIATE YOUR ENTHUSIASM FOR
THIS PROJECT KNOWS I CAN'T I'M
GONNA I'M GONNA FOCUS MY
COMMENTS I'VE HEARD CONVERT.
I KNOW YOU ARE SO SO I'M NOT
PROVOCATIVE CNTY PERSUASIVE I
KNOW I TRY NOT TO MEET WITH
THEIR IT.
SO PER YOUR COMMENTS THOUGH THAT
AS A BUDGET COMMITTEE THAT YOU'D
LIKE US TO FOCUS ON PERHAPS.
THE FINANCIAL THE VALUE AND
EQUITY PROPOSITION YOU'VE BEEN
TALKING ABOU THIS MORNING FOR
ALL THESE PROJECTS. NOTE
PRECISION MEDICINE A PRECISION
HEALTH WILL ONLY BE SUCCESSFUL.
IF WE'RE ABLE TO DISSEMINATE.
THE ADVANCES I USE IT UC DAVIS
FROM LIKE CANCER PATIENTS.
TO THE CENTRAL VALLEY AND OF THE
INLAND EMPIRE.
IT'S REALLY.
.
A MANDATE TO DISSEMINATE.
ARE REMARKABLE FINDINGS SAID TO
TO THESE OTHER AREAS THAT YOU'VE
TALKED ABOUT THAT IS THE ONLY
WAY WE'LL REALLY SEE THE VALUE.
OF THIS TYPE OF RESEARCH AND
AND MAYBE LEVEL OFF THE
REMARKABLE UNPRECEDENTED RISING
HEALTHCARE COSTS BY USING
TARGETED THERAPIES WHETHER SOME
CANCER. OR ASTHMA
OR TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY.
KIDS WITH ASTHMA. AND I THINK
THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE GOING TO SEE
THE VALUE.
THE OTHER POINT I WOULD LEAVE
YOU WITH THIS MORNING IN
ADDITION TO YOUR COMMENTS ABOUT
EQUITY THAT YOU'VE ALREADY
OFFICE SIZES THAT. HAVING THIS
ORGANIZATION AS I REPRESENT
CALIFORNIA.
NATIONAL MEETINGS HAS REALLY
PLACED US.
AND THE LEAD IN THE COUNTRY
PEOPLE RECOGNIZE THE CALIFORNIA
IS NUMBER ONE IN BOTH PRECISION
MEDICINE. AND PRECISION PUBLIC
HEALTH IN OUR ABILITY.
CHANGE BY BRINGING TOGETHER THIS
THAT ORGANIZATION AND AND THAT'S
REFLECTED DAY IN GRANTS FROM THE
NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH.
NO WE WERE JUST A LUCKY ENOUGH
TO GET DEPARTMENT OFFENSE SIR
FOR HALF MILLION DOLLAR GRANT TO
DO PRECISION MEDICINE AND
DRAMATIC BRAIN INJURY. IN
WOUNDED WARRIORS AND IN CIVILIAN
INJURIES
SO THAT TYPE OF LEADERSHIP IS
GOING TO BRING.
THAT TYPE OF LEVERAGE THAT YOU
WERE JUST ALLUDING TO A DOCTOR
BAKA.
THAT THIS COR THIRTY MILLION
DOLLARS WILL BE AMPLIFIED
THROUGH PHILANTHROPY AND EXTRA
FUNDING TO REALLY HELPUS. A
MUCH GREATER IMPACT SO.
I THINK VALUE EQUITY
DISSEMINATION AND LEVERAGING OUR
ALL IMPORTANT CONCEPTS THAT.
YOU'LL SEE COME OUT OF THAT
PASSING THIS INITIATIVE AND
APPRECIATE YOUR TIME.
THANK YOU SIR.
WELL MISTER CHAIRMAN MY NAME IS
PRETTY MCCARTY I'M A PHYSICIAN
SCIENTIST AT UCSF AND I'M HERE
WITH MY COLLEAGUES AFTER ESTHER
YOU ALSO AT UCSF.
AND WE ARE FUNDED BY THE US
YANKED HIM OR PROJECT TO FLY. OF
THE LATEST ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE TECHNOLOGIES TO
ANALYSE BRAIN SCANS TO HELP
RADIOLOGISTS DETECT EMERGENCY
FINDINGS ON CONDITIONS LIKE
TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY STROKE.
AND REASONABLE BLEEDING.
AND SO THIS WILL HELP PREVENT
MISDIAGNOSIS OR DELAYS AND
DIAGNOSIS THAT WOULD RESULT
OTHERWISE AND DEATH AND
DISABILITY.
AND UCSF IS ACTUALLY WORKING
WITH TOM A LEADING A AYE COMPANY
HERE IN CALIFORNIA TO. A
COMMERCIALIZE THIS TECHNOLOGY.
WITH THE RAPID PATH AND VIA
CLOUD BASED DELIVERY SO THAT
ALL.
CALIFORNIANS CAN BENEFIT.
AND THIS AWARD IS ALSO CATALYZED
A NEW COLLABORATION BETWEEN
OURSELVES AT UCSF AND THE UC
BERKELEY DEPARTMENT OF COMPUTER
SCIENCE SO. WE'RE DEVELOPING NEW
A AYE METHODS A TO BETTER
ANALYZE MEDICAL IMAGES AND.
THAT WERE ABOUT TO PUBLISH IN
THE MEDICAL LITERATURE.
ASA WERE VERY GRATEFUL FOR THE
CIPM FUNDING.
IT CAME TO US MUCH FASTER THAN
WE COULD HAVE GOTTEN FROM THE
FEDERAL GRANT CYCLE IF WE'D
APPLY TO THE NIH FOR THIS
PROJECT WE WOULD STILL BE
WAITING. FOR THE MONEY TO
ARRIVE.
SO I THINK CIPM IS.
EXCELLENT MECHANISM TO UP
PROMOTE INNOVATION AND FAST
MOVING AREAS LIKE ARTIFICIAL
INTELLIGENCE THAT WILL BENEFIT.
THE CALIFORNIA ECONOMY AS WELL
AS I IMPROVING THE HEALTH OF
CALIFORNIANS.
THANK YOU.
SENATORS YOUR MORNING. AND
AFTERNOON PLEASE ME OLIVER AGRE
CALIFORNIA LIFE SCIENCES
ASSOCIATION I WITH A TRADE
ASSOCIATION REPRESENTS MANY OF
THE ACADEMIC RESEARCH
INSTITUTIONS. THAT ARE IN THIS
SPACE IS AWESOME THE COMPANIES
ARE DEVELOPING A NEW
BREAKTHROUGH THERAPIES.
PRECISION MEDICINE IS THE WAY
FOR FUTURE AYE IT'S THE WAY
MODERN MEDICINE IS MOVING THIS
IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF A PUBLIC
PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP THAT IS
WORKING.
SUCCESSFULLY SO WE ENCOURAGE
YOUR SPORT THANK YOU.
I AM I AM OTHER NUMBER AYE
EIDETIC THE DISTANT COMICS IF
THE INITIATIVE WITHIN THE CDS AT
UC DAVIS AND VIA BENEFITTED US
THAT ONE OF THE INITIAL
DECIPIENS. FOR THE DEMONSTRATION
PROJECT LOOKING AT BRINGING IN
NOT ONLY EL YEAR CIARA DATA BUT
ALSO DATA FROM. IV DE LIKE SAID
FROM PATIENTS AND BEING THEM
TOGETHER SO THAT WE CAN IMPACT
HOW THEY MANAGE THE DISEASE AND
AS PART OF THIS DEMONSTRATION
PROJECT WE HAVE CREATED SOME
UNIQUE PARTNERSHIPS. WHICH NOT
ONLY HAD LED TO CREATION OFF CAB
MODELS BUT ALSO BUSINESS MODELS
WHICH.
CAN HAS A POTENTIAL PLEADED DO
INVESTMENT IN THE VISUAL HEALTH
ECONOMY SPACE WITHIN THAT
CALIFORNIA AND I THINK.
OF THIS BRINGS IN THAT UNIQUE
RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN ACADEMIA
AND INDUSTRY AND THE NEED FOR US
TO MOVE TOWARDS A MODEL WHERE.
THIS SO WOULD SOLVE A LOT OF
THE EXISTING PROBLEMS IN THE
HEALTH CARE SPACE PUBLICLY DUE
TO THE HIGH OF GET COSTS. AND I
THINK.
OBVIOUS SUPPORT OFF THIS.
CREATION OF THE NONPROFIT SO
THAT THEY CAN FOR THE FACILITY
EIGHT SUCKED DEL UNIQUE
PARTNERSHIPS AND INVESTMENT.
INTO THIS SPACE MUCH MORE MANY
SIMILAR IF YOU WORDS ABOUT THAT
OF HIS
PARTNERS ALL IS ALL ABOUT USING
BIG DATA.
ENGINE OF INNOCENCE TO FIND
CURES FOR.
CHILDHOOD CANCERS POTATOES THAT
ARE RARE AND.
DIFFICULT TREAT AND REFRACTORY
TO STANDARD TREATMENTS OF AND I
KNOW HIS PROJECT A WHICH START
WITH THE SEED FUNDING ABOUT A
MILLION HAS IT HAS BEEN ABLE TO
ATTRACT OVER FOUR MILLION.
FROM OTHER PARTNERSHIPS AND
HE'S ALSO HAD COLLABORATORS
FROM.
BOTH NATIONALLY AND
INTERNATIONALLY THAT I THINK HE
OTHERWISE WOULD NOT HAVE IT
ENABLES INTEREST IN THE PROJECT.
SO JUST WANT TO SPEAK IN FAVOR
OF THAT PRODUCT AS WELL AND JUST
THAT. IN GENERAL THIS CROSS
CUTTING TECHNOLOGIES THAT ARE
SUPPORTED.
THAT EVEN SUPPORTED BY THE CAPM
ARE HELPFUL.
NOT FOR THE INDIVIDUAL PROJECTS
ONLY BUT ALSO IN A CATALYZING
PROGRESS IN A LOT OF OTHER
AREAS.
THROUGH SHARING OF TECHNOLOGIES
THANK YOU THANK YOU ANY OTHER
PUBLIC COMMENT.
DUCK BACK I WANT TO THANK YOU
FOR YOUR EFFORTS I USE THE WORD
CONVERT I MEANT THAT.
YOU IN THE ADMINISTRATION HAVE.
.
CONVINCE ME OVER THE LAST COUPLE
OF YEARS OF THE IMPORTANCE OF
THIS EFFORT TO.
ADVANCE STRAIGHT XIN
WE WE WORK TOGETHER.
TO CONTINUE TO BOOST THE NUMBER
OF HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS UP AND
DOWN THE STATE.
TO DELIVER THESE ADVANCES.
IN UNDERSERVED MEDICALLY
UNDERSERVED AREAS OF THE STATE
THROUGH.
INCREASES IN THE NUMBER OF
PHYSICIANS BEING PRODUCED BY OUR
MEDICAL SCHOOLS AND INCREASES
THE NUMBER OF. AND THE NUMBER OF
MEDICAL RESIDENCIES THAT ARE
AVAILABLE TO THOSE POSITIONS.
HERE IN THE STATES SO.
I'M A SUPPORTER OF LOOK FORWARD
TO SUPPORTING THIS IT'S A HOLD
OPEN STAFF RECOMMENDATION RIGHT
NOW BUT.
WILL BE REVISITING THIS BEFORE
WE SHUT DOWN THE.
BUDGET OPERATION THIS YEAR AND
AGAIN I COMMEND YOU FOR YOUR
EFFORTS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
THINKING.
ISSUE NUMBER TWO OPR HOUSING
PACKAGE RESPONSE THIS IS ALSO A
HOLD OF.
YES MA'AM MAN.
TO. NATALIE COUPLE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST AT THE ACT.
MY NAME BUDGET OFFICER FOR OPIUM
OKAY PLUS A PROCESS GOVERNING
AND.
GOD TAKE THE LEAD ON THIS
AROUND SO GOVERNOR'S OFFICE PAIN
RESEARCH IS.
QUESTION THREE HUNDRED THIRTY
HREE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR
FISCAL YEARS.
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN AND NINETEEN
TWENTY FOUR TO.
.
CLOSER TO A LIMIT TERM POSITIONS
TO WORK WITH HOUSING AND
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ON
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE RELATED TO
THE SENATE BILL.
TO ARM LEGISLATION.
WE PRIMARILY WILL BE FOCUSED ON
TECHNICAL SYSTEMS RELATED
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY
ACT. NOT ONLY FOR SENATE BILL
TUBE DE ENTIRE A HOUSING PACKAGE
OF BILLS FROM TWO THOUSAND
SEVENTEEN SO HOW DO WE WORK WITH
LOCAL JURISDICTIONS ON.
MAKING SURE THEY'RE AWARE OF IN
AND CAN UTILIZE THE DIFFERENCE
SECRET PROVISIONS THAT HAVE
BEEN.
PROVIDED BY A VARIETY OF BILLS
OVER THE LAST YEAR AND AND
PROBABLY.
PREVIOUS TO THAT AS WELL AS WE
AS WE DIG INTO IT.
IN MORE DETAIL. A HOME.
GOOD BECAUSE WE NEED TO ROLL OUT
HOUSING EXACTLY IN THE IS
EXACTLY THE GOAL OF THIS IS TO
TO.
WORK WITH LOCAL JURISDICTIONS
ON STREAMLINING THE LOCAL
PROCESSES TO GET MORE HOUSING
BILL MORE QUICKLY.
THAT WE ARE TAKING QUESTIONS.
BUT IT'S A COMMENT.
THREE AREA OTHER QUESTIONS FOR
REIMBURSEMENT AUTHORITY FROM
FUNDING ALREADY PROVIDED WITHIN
THE FIRST YEARS FUNDING FROM THE
BUILDING HOMES AND JOBS TRUST
FUND.
AND AND IT WILL ENABLE OPR
IMMEDIATE STATUTORY OBLIGATION
TO PROVIDE TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE
UNDER SP TWO AND ALSO TO PRODUCE
THE TECHNICAL ADVISORY.
ASSISTING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS IN
IMPLEMENTING RECENT SECRET
CHANGES TO EXPEDITE HOUSING.
BELIAU.
YEAH I JUST POINT OUT THAT THE
LEGISLATION AND AND LAST YEAR'S
HOUSING PACKAGE.
WAS JUST PART OF A LONG LINE OF
LEGISLATION THAT HAS ATTEMPTED
TO BRIDE CECA STREAMLINING IN
PAST YEARS AND. AND MANY OF
THOSE PASSED A ROVISIONS HAVE
GONE UNDER UTILIZE IN MANY CASES
AND AND AND A LOT OF THAT WAS
DUE TO. A LACK OF AWARENESS AND
COMFORT AT THE LOCAL LEVEL WITH
THESE POLICIES SO THEY THE TYPE
OF TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE THAT'S
PROPOSED HERE WILL BE IMPORTANT
TO.
OF FACILITATING THE USE OF THE
HOUSING PACKAGE
IT'LL.
THEIR VISION QUESTIONS.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS
PARTICULAR ITEM IT IS A HOLD
OPEN ITEM.
SEEING NONE.
WE WILL BE BRINGING THIS BACK
TO CLOSE UP BEFORE THE END OF
THIS BUDGET PROCESS BUT THANK
YOU FOR. THANK YOU.
AND NOW THE.
.
FINAL AND THEN PER DAY IS ISSUE
NUMBER THREE CALIFORNIA COMPLETE
COUNT CENSUS.
TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY.
GOOD AFTERNOON ACUMEN.
FLORIDA YOU'RE ALRIGHT.
CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE I'M KEEPS D DISCO
TAIKI. I'M DIRECTOR OF THE
CALIFORNIA COMPLETE COUNT.
EFFORT.
WHEN INTRODUCED OR.
CAROLINE TO ALLOW.
GREAT WELL I WONDER OF.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING US HERE
TODAY.
THIS WILL BE MY THIRD DECENNIAL
CENSUS IN THIS ROLE HER THAT MY
THIRD GOVERNOR.
I DO OTHER THINGS IN BETWEEN.
FANTASY NUMBER HAPPY TO HAVE YOU
THEM YEAH YES SOME OTHER NEWS
KNOWS WHAT'S GOING ON. WELL
HOPEFULLY CHANGES EACH TIME BUT
WE BUILD UPON THE SUCCESS OF.
YES
YES WAY DIED TO SAY START WHEN I
WAS SIX BUT DOESN'T.
SO. WHETHER DECENNIAL CENSUS I
ALSO MY VOLUNTEER WORK HAS BEEN.
LA AT ON THE NATIONAL ADVISORY
COMMITTEE ARE TWO THE CENSUS ON
RACE ETHNICITY AND OTHER
POPULATION SO I DO THAT KIND OF
IN MY SPARE TIME. I DO OTHER
THINGS IN BETWEEN.
SO THIS PROPOSED PROPOSAL
REQUESTS FORTY POINT THREE
MILLION DOLLARS.
AND TWENTY TWO LIMITED TERM
POSITIONS TO STAFF THE
CALIFORNIA COMPLETE.
IT WILL COMPLEMENT THE U. S.
CENSUS OUTREACH AND FOCUSES ON
HARD CAL POPULATIONS.
THE FUNDING WILL BE APPROPRIATED
IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN NINETEEN AND
AVAILABLE FOR THE DURATION OF
THIS THREE YEAR EFFORT CROSSING
OVER FISCAL YEARS EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN. NINETEEN TWENTY AND
TWENTY TWENTY ONE.
SO MANY PEOPLE DO ASK OKAY
YOU'RE BACK AGAIN. OF WHY DO YOU
COME BACK AND IT'S IT I REALLY
BELIEVE THAT IT IS THE DECENNIAL
CENSUS.
IS THE FOUNDATION OF OUR
DEMOCRACY.
IT'S REALLY WHAT WE STAND FOR
AND I THINK THAT'S WHAT BRINGS
ME BACK EACH TIME.
SO MANY OF YOU ARE FAMILIAR WITH
THE DECENNIAL CENSUS IT IS A
FEDERAL OPERATION.
ARE AND IT IS THE LARGEST
PEACETIME OPERATION.
SO OTHER THAN GOING TOWARD THE
FED SO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
THIS IS THEIR LARGEST OPERATION
THAT THEY NEED TO MANAGE.
SO PEOPLE ASK WHAT IS AT STAKE
FOR CALIFORNIA.
BECAUSE WHY WOULD WE BE INVOLVES
IN A FOR OPERATION.
WHAT SUPPORTS TWO THINGS ITS
POWER AND ITS MONEY SO POWER WE
BASE ALL OF OUR REAPPORTIONMENT
FOR CONGRESS EACH TENT THE TO
EVERY TEN YEARS BASED ON SOME
REAL DATA? AND REDISTRICTING.
THAT'S KIND OF JUST SIMPLE AND
IT WE CAN LOOKING UP WE DON'T
GET A COMPLETE COUNT HERE IN
CALIFORNIA WE COULD LOSE WANTED
TO CONGRESSIONAL SEATS.
WE DON'T TO DO THAT
AND MONEY SO IT'S MARCH
FIFTEENTH TODAY AND IN ABOUT
FOUR WEEKS ON APRIL FIFTEENTH
WHAT WE ARE GOING TO DO.
CENTER TAXES AND WHERE DO WE
SEND THEM ELECTRONICALLY.
SEND THEM TO WASHINGTON DC WE DO
THAT EVERY YEAR ON APRIL
FIFTEENTH.
BUT EVERY DECADE ONLY ONCE A
DECADE ON APRIL FIRST IN YEARS
AND WITH ZERO TWO WE HAVE ALL
THE OPPORTUNITIES CALIFORNIANS
TO REQUEST THOSE DOLLARS BACK BY
FILLING OUT. THE CENSUS FOR
SO COMPLETE AND ACCURATE COUNT
OF ALL CALIFORNIANS WILL BRING
BACK BILLIONS OF DOLLARS FOR
FEDERAL PROGRAMS. OF THAT OR
STATE OF NEEDS TO TO. CONTINUE.
THE EFFORTS ARE HERE ARE BASED
MODELED AFTER TWO THOUSAND AND
TWO THOUSAND TEN WE HAVE A LEVEL
OF LESSONS LEARNED AND I'D BE
GLAD TO
ONE FOR YOU RIGHT NOW BUT HE WHO
WANTED TO ASK MORE QUESTIONS
ABOUT IT. BUT WE BASICALLY
BECAUSE CALIFORNIA IS SO DIVERSE
GEOGRAPHICALLY AND
DEMOGRAPHICALLY WE HAVE A REALLY
HIGH RISK OF UNDERCOUNT.
SO I WANTED TO JUST.
CAN I LEAVE IT OPEN FOR THEIR
AND ASK QUESTIONS LIKE IN.
IT'S WHATEVER YOULIKE IF YOU
WANT TO GO THROUGH THE ACTUAL
BUDGET LINE ITEMS THAT CAN DO
THAT TOO WELL HOW HOW HW DO WE
INTERFACE WITH THE WITH THE
FEDERAL EFFORT I MEAN MY
UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THE.
FEDERAL EFFORT THIS YEAR IS
GOING TO BE MORE ONLINE IN LESS
CLIP BOARDS AND QUESTIONNAIRES
YES.
OF BLOOD MILES ALSO MY
UNDERSUPPLY FURTHER
UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT'S NOT
AS IF WE CAN GO DO A CAPTAIN
HANDED TO SOMEBODY.
WITH THE FEDERAL BAD JOHN THAT
THEY'RE GOING TO ACCEPT IT SO
HOW DOES HOW DOES THAT PROCESS
WORK.
.
IT'S FORTY POINT THREE MILLION A
NUFF.
WHAT WE THINK IT'S GOING TO
TAKE?
WATER THE LIMITING FACTOR IS
THAT WE THINK WE'RE GOING TO
FACE IN THIS NEW ENVIRONMENT
WHERE IT'S LESS PAPER AND MORE
ONLINE.
HOW ARE WE GOING TO ADDRESS
THOSE?
THOSE WOULD BE MY QUESTIONS
AND I THINK CONCESSIONS TO MY
COLLEAGUES BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY
YOU'VE HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD.
THAT SOME OF US ARE HERE BECAUSE
OF A REDISTRICTING OF THE
SENSES.
AND.
WE WANT TO KNOW HOW WE'RE GONNA
AND IN THE IN AN ENVIRONMENT IN
WHICH THERE'S NOT MORE MONEY BUT
LESS MONEY COMING. MOVING WEST
FROM THE EAST.
HOW DO WE ADDRESS THESE VERY
CRITICAL ISSUES TO ENSURE THAT?
PEOPLE ARE PROPERLY COUNTED.
THE VERY YOUNG.
THE AND YOU KNOW THE AND
DOCUMENT OR WHATEVER IT IS
RECOUNTING.
YES OKAY ALSO WITH YOUR FIRST
QUESTION A PROBLEM YOU HAVE TO
REPEAT THE OTHER ONES BUT HOW DO
WE INTERFACE Y. I'M GOOD
COMPOUND YEAH. YEAH SO THE
COMMENT WITH ALL CHINA SHOULD BE
OUT IN LAW SCHOOL.
I WROTE ALL THAT.
A BASICALLY HOW WE INTERFACE
WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT WILL
LIKELY SINCE I'VE BEEN DOING
THIS FOR I HAVE A PRETTY GOOD.
CONNECTION TO THEM.
AS CHAIR OF THE NATIONAL
ADVISORY COMMITTEE OF WE ALSO
WILL BE WORKING WITH THE FOLKS
ON THE GROUND SO I'VE CONNECTION
TO SUITLAND MARYLAND WHERE THE
US CENSUS BUREAU IS PLACED. AND
THEN ALSO HERE THEY HAVE THE LA
REGIONAL OFFICE.
SO UNLIKE OTHER PAST YEARS WHEN
THEY WERE THEY WERE MUCH MORE
THE FEDS WERE MUCH MORE AHEAD OF
US IN TERMS OF FUNDING.
CALIFORNIA IS AHEAD OF THE GAME.
PARTLY BECAUSE OF THE ARE.
HAVING SUCH PROBLEMS WITH
CONGRESSIONAL BUDGETING WHERE IN
YOU ASKED ABOUT PAIN POINTS.
I AM YOU KNOW THE PAIN POINT
FOR ME IS A IT'S A FEDERAL
OPERATION WE DON'T HAVE CONTROL
OF THAT WOULD HAVE CONTROL OF
THE FEDERAL BUDGET. OB THEY ARE
SEVERELY UNDER FUNDED SO MY
WORRY POINT PAIN POINT IS WHAT
THEY HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO
BASICALLY DO THE OPERATION.
AND HOW CAN WE AS YOU KNOW
CALIFORNIANS HELP WITH THAT
THEY DID THESE BUDGET CUTS AND
THEY'RE PUTTING STUFF ONLINE
I'VE TIED TO THE BETA TEST OF
THE ON LINE.
.
IN INTERNET SELF RESPONSE TOOLS
BUT IT'S CALLED WE DID THAT LAST
APRIL AND I HAVE TO BE HONEST
THE USER EXPERIENCE WAS NOT
GREAT AND SO I'M HOPING THAT IN
THE NEXT TWO WEEKS WHEN THEY'RE
DOING. THEIR TEST IN PROVIDENCE
RHODE ISLAND OTHER NO LONGER
DOING A DRESS REHEARSAL JUST AND
AND TEST THAT THEY'LL GET SOME
FEEDBACK ON DOES THAT INTERNET.
THE SELF RESPONSE TOOL YOU KNOW
IS IT USER FRIENDLY.
WELL HA LET ME WHO HAS ACCESS TO
THE INTERNET AND ONLINE.
RIGHT WILL HERE IN CALIFORNIA WE
HAVE APPROXIMATELY SEVENTEEN
PERCENT THAT HAVE NO INTERNET
ACCESS AND DAHLE AND TALKING TO
THE.
CALIFORNIA MERGING TECHNOLOGY
FUND THEY SAID IT'S MORE LIKE
THIRTY ONE PERCENT SAY PEOPLE
WHO ARE UNDER CONNECTED AT LEAST
TOY DISCONNECTED THAT'S A HOT
HONEY YOU ACTUALLY GET THOSE
PEOPLE.
TWO OF THE TERMINAL OR A
LOCATION WHERE THEY CAN GO I
ASSUME COMPLETE A QUESTIONNAIRE.
WHAT THEY CAN DO IT ONLINE OR
THEY CAN DO IT OVER THE
TELEPHONE?
WHICH I STILL GO OFF A LOT OF
PEOPLE DON'T USE THEIR CELL
PHONE MINUTES TO USE THOSE THE
WOOD IT PROBLEMS AS WELL.
BUT WITH OUR OUTREACH IN
PARTNERING WITH COMMUNITY
ORGANIZATIONS BEEN YOU WHO ARE
HERE TODAY AND WITH THE COUNTIES
AND LOCAL CITIES.
WE WOULD BE SETTING UP SOME MORE
TO WHAT WE DID IN TWO THOUSAND.
ARE AND THAT WHAT THE
FOUNDATIONS IN TWO THOUSAND TEN
THESE BOHO QUESTIONNAIRE
ASSISTANCE HONORS OUR QUESTIONER
KIOSKS WHERE PEOPLE CAN HAVE
ACCESS
TO.
ELECTRONIC MEANS OF OF GETTING
IT FILLED OUT
SO THAT'S GOOD PART OF WHAT WE
WANT TO DO AS WE HEAD INTO
TWENTY TWENTY IS GET THOSE
PARTNERS ON THE GROUND SO WERE
YOU DOING THESE AT MALLS AND
SHOPPING CENTERS AND.
APPARENT RESOURCE CENTERS AND
SCHOOLS.
WE WERE DO THEM AT LIBRARIES.
WE WOULD DO THEM EVERYTHING
THAT WE'RE GOING TO DO IS BASED
UPON.
THE MAPS IN TERMS OF WHERE THE
LOWER SPAWNING SCORE CENSUS
TRACKS ARE.
AND WHERE THE HARD TO COUNT
FOLKS ARE AND SO THAT'S
BASICALLY HOW THAT IN TERMS OF
THE MUNICH AMERICAN COMMUNITY
SURVEY.
LAID OUT AND WE'RE USING GIS IS
COME SUCH A LONG WAY THE CAREER
REALLY PINPOINT WHERE THOSE
NEEDS ARE. AND WHERE THE
ORGANIZATIONS WILL BE ON THE
GROUND.
AND THEN YOU HAVE TO GET THE
THEN YOU HAVE TO GET THE WORD
OUT. TO PUBLICIZE THE FACT THAT
FOLKS NEED TO GO TO THE.
X. Y. Z. SHOPPING CENTER WHERE
THE COMMUNITY CENTER OR THE
SCHOOL.
AND THEY DO NEED TO DO IT
BETWEEN THIS.
PERIOD OF TIME AND BRIGHT DATE
AND TIME.
TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE.
INFORMATION IS COUNTED YES.
AND THERE'S A PROGRAM FOR ALL.
YES SO IN TERMS OF THE FORTY
MILLION DOLLARS WE HAVE.
AB POSSIBLY SEVENTEEN AND HALF
MILLION DOLLARS FOR MEDIA
CAMPAIGN THAT WILL BE MULTI
MEDIA MULTI LINGUAL AND UP AND
ACROSS.
THE STATE AND THEN WE HAVE
TWELVE POINT FIVE MILLION FOR
WHAT I CALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZATION
COMMUNITIES ORGANIZATION
OUTREACH
SO WE A HUGE STATE. SORGE DIVIDE
THEM UP AND.
HAVE GENERALS AND MAJORS
GENERALS HAD GENERAL'S ACROSS
THE US THE IT GEOGRAPHY WHO WILL
THEN WORK WITH THE COMMITTEES
ORGANIZATIONS WHICH ARE MORE
LIKE YOU'RE SORT OF MAJORS
LIEUTENANTS AS WE GO DOWN TO OUR
GREAT.
SO BASICALLY AIR GAMING GROUND
GAME SO THAT'S KIND OF IT IT
CREATES WHAT WE WANT TO CREATE
IS A SURROUND SOUND.
SORT OF BOTH AIR AND ON THE
GROUND AND THEN PROVIDE ACCESS
TO WHERE THEY CAN FILL THIS OUT.
WE STILL HAVE TO FIGHT A BATTLE
IN DC WHERE. ARE THEY GONNA BE
DOING WHAT THEY SAY THEY'RE
GOING TO BE DOING IN TERMS OF
ENUMERATION SO IF YOU DON'T
ANSWER THE FORM ONLINE OR ON THE
TELEPHONE.
WITHIN PRO THE FIRST THREE WEEKS
AGAINST UP TO START APRIL FIRST
KINDA GOES YOU KNOW FOR
APPROXIMATELY TWELVE WEEKS BUT
REALLY. THE SOFT RESPONSE TIME
IS REALLY SORT OF APRIL FIRST
THROUGH APRIL THIRTIETH SEE
ABOUT THIRTY DAYS AND IF YOU
DON'T ANSWER PEOPLE GONNA START
KNOCKING ON YOUR DOORS.
SO WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT OKAY THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS TO HIRE
ENUMERATORS
WE'D LIKE THEM TO BE NEW WRITERS
FROM THOSE COMMUNITIES.
BUT HERE'S ANOTHER PAIN POINT IN
A RISK IS THAT ONE IN TWO
THOUSAND TEN. THE UNEMPLOYMENT
RATE WAS MUCH HIGHER SO THEY HAD
MORE TO CHOOSE FROM. YET TO BE
SEEN WAS CAN BE LOOKING LIKE CAN
TWENTY NINETEEN AND TWENTY
TWENTY.
AND THEN THEY JUST RECENTLY PUT
MORE.
CONSTRAINTS THAT YOU HAD TO BE
A FULL CITIZEN AND THAT THEY
WOULDN'T HIRE ANYBODY. UP
BECAUSE IF YOU CONSIDER FOR A
FEDERAL EMPLOYEE TO BE IN THE
NUMERATOR A WHICH COULD BE AYE
UP A RISK IN TERMS OF SUMMER
HARD CAO AREAS THAT NEED PEOPLE
WITH SPECIAL LANGUAGE.
OR NOT EVEN A GREEN CARD.
HELP.
IT'S KINDA KNEW BECAUSE IN TWO
THOUSAND TWO THOUSAND TEN WE WE
HAD
BUT WE THEY HAVE THAT
FLEXIBILITY.
BUT THERE'RE IN WASHINGTON
THERE TEND TO BE.
TIGHTENING THE RULES ON THE A
LOT OF.
THINGS THAT WORK PREVIOUSLY
WELL IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE THEN
THE MAJOR EFFORT NEEDS TO BE IN
THE.
IN THE ORGANIZING AND GETTING
PEOPLE TO THE KIOSKS IN THE
MOBILE CENTERS.
I WOULD SUGGEST THAT NOBODY
KNOWS HOW TO DO GROUND GAME
BETTER THAN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA OR THE PEOPLE IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
AND THIS IS A GROUND WAR NEEDS
TO BEONE SO IT SOUNDS TO ME
LIKE YOU'VE GOT YOU'VE GOT A
PLAN.
WE DO AND IT WOULDN'T BE WITHOUT
A WIN TWO THOUSAND AND TWENTY
FOUR MILLION DOLLARS THE WE DID
THAT IN SIXTEEN WEEKS WIND OUT
APIECE OUT PIECING THE ENTIRE
COUNTRY IN TERMS OF. RESPONSE
RATES OF RESPONSE RATE TWO
THOUSAND TEN OF COURSE ARE IN
THE MIDDLE OF THE GLOBAL
FINANCIAL MELTDOWN WE'RE DOWN TO
LIKE LESS BILLY LESS THAN THE
MILLIONS LIKE TWO MILLION. AND
WE GOT THE MONEY OUT LATER BUT
THE U. S. CENSUS BUREAU HAD THE.
AMERICAN RECOVERY AND ACT AND SO
THEY PUT SOME YOU KNOW CHRISTMAS
EVE A TWO THOUSAND NINE
ADDITIONAL DOLLARS ON THE
GROUND.
LUCKILY WE HAD COMMITTEES
ORGANIZATIONS AND FOUNDATIONS ON
MANY THAT ARE HERE THE PUT UP
ADDITIONAL NINE MILLION OF THEIR
OWN DOLLARS.
THERE MANY OF THEM WE HAVE
FUNDED IN TWO THOUSAND SO NOW
WE'RE KIND OF AT TWENTY TWENTY
AND WE'RE STARTING EARLY AND
WERE LOOKING TO COMBINE THAT SO.
IF YOU ADD OF THE SEVEN MILLION
THAT WAS DONE FOR LUKA AND FOR
INITIAL SET UP AND THE THREE
PLUS THE FORTY MILLION IT'S AN
UNPRECEDENTED FIFTY MILLION.
OF STATE INVESTMENT
AND THEIR HAS BEEN A CHALLENGE
TO FOUNDATIONS AND ENDOWMENTS
WITHIN CALIFORNIA.
BUT THE COMMUNITY FOUNDATION TO
A LOT AT STAKE THAT FOR THE
PEOPLE THAT THEY SERVE TO MATCH
THAT FIFTY SO WE'RE LOOKING TO
TRY TO GET.
YOU KNOW OF FF OF SORT OF UP
PRIVATE FUNDS TO MATCH WHAT
CALIFORNIA'S DOING AND WILL HAVE
TO WORK REALLY TOGETHER BECAUSE
WE WANT TO AVOID DUPLICATION.
BUT WE ALSO WANT TO BE ABLE TO
FIND THOSE GAPS HEARD YOU
EARLIER ICE HERE FOR THE WHOLE
HEARING VERY INTERESTED IN THAT
THE HOMELESS YOUTH UP OFFICE AND
MONEY TO PARTNER WITH THEM IN
TERMS OF COVERING THAT.
I MEAN I ALSO HEARD YOU TALK
ABOUT WHAT ABOUT YOU KNOW THE
NORTHERN PARTS OF LA COUNTY AND
OTHER OTHER AREAS.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETIMES WHEN
PEOPLE DO.
AT WHICH THEY'RE NOT NECESSARILY
REACHED WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW
THAT WE'RE DOING WE'RE DOING
CONTRACTS NOT GRANT SINCE WE
DIDN'T TWO THOUSAND WHICH THAT
THERE'S A LOT MORE
ACCOUNTABILITY. AND WHERE THEY
INVEST THEIR DOLLARS WILL BE
BASED ON. A THAT DID THE THE
AMERICAN COMMUNITY SURVEY THE
CENSUS DATA THAT SHOWS WHERE
THESE PEOPLE THAT ARE LOW
RESPONDING AND HAVE HARD TO
COUNT WHAT WE CALL HARD COUNT
VARIABLES.
HA. LOBBYIST QUESTIONS SO DUMB.
THE FIFTY MILLION THAT YOU.
SPOKE ABOUT.
WHEN YOU ADD THE ANTICIPATED
FEDERAL MONEY THAT WOULD BE.
REPEATABLE TO ACTIVITY IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
REGARD CAL.
IT'S ISN'T MUCH WE KNEW AT THAT
WHAT WILL IT'S WHY HOW MUCH DO
YOU THINK WE THEY WON'T DO IT BY
STATE BUT IF YOU LOOK AT THE
OVERALL NATIONAL THEY HAVE A
FOUR HUNDRED FIFTEEN MILLION
DOLLAR CONTRACT WITH YOUNG AND
RUBICAM. WHICH HAS BEEN PUT ON
HOLD BY THE WAY AND IF YOU
FIGURE.
WE'LL MARKETS WERE ABOUT TEN
PERCENT SO YOU WOULD THINK THEY
WOULD GIVE US ABOUT
PERCENT OF THAT.
BUT BECAUSE THAT ENTIRE
CONTRACT IS ON HOLD RIGHT NOW
THAT'S ALL THEY'RE DOING IS
RESEARCH.
IN DOING SURVEYS TO FIND OUT
WHAT THE BARRIERS ARE MRS
TESTING.
I AM A LITTLE WORRIED SO WE MAY
GET SOMEWHERE BETWEEN SEVENTY
TOTAL SEVENTY TWO HUNDRED
MILLION.
SO HOW DOES THAT COMPARE WITH
THE TOTAL AMOUNT THAT WAS SPENT
IT'S THE LAST CENSUS THROUGH THE
SENSES
FOR SO AS I MENTIONED IN.
TWO THOUSAND I'M ASKING THAT
QUESTION BECAUSE I'M TRYING TO
GET AN IDEA OF HOW ADEQUATE THE
FORTY POINT THREE OKAY. ONE TWO
THOUSAND TEN THAT'S NOT A GOOD
EXAMPLE WE HAD YOU KNOW TWO
MILLION DOLLARS.
AND IT WAS FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN THE HISTORY OF CALIFORNIA
CALIFORNIA BEING A STATE THAT WE
DID NOT GAIN AN ADDITIONAL
COMMERCIALS.
ON A BETTER LOOK AT A SUCCESSFUL
ONE YET SO LET'S LOOK AT.
AT TWO THOUSAND FIVE TWENTY
FOUR POINT SEVEN MILLION AGAIN
IT WAS FOR A SIXTEEN WEEK
CAMPAIGN TOTAL OR JUST OUR SHARE
AS OUR SHARE THAT WITH OUR SHARE
AND THE FEDS JUST HAD STARTED TO
DO ADVERTISING BUT THEY REALLY
HADN'T DONE A LOT. AND IT WAS
ACTUALLY THE FIRST CAMPAIGN IN
THE COUNTRY THAT THE STATE HAD
TAKEN ON. TO SAY HEY WE WE HAVE
STUFF AT STAKE HERE.
BUT WE DID I'LL BE SEEING CARD
AND OUR COUNTRY AND WE GAINED
ADDITIONAL CONGRESSIONAL SEATS
BUT I WANTED TO POINT OUT THAT.
THAT LAST SEAT THAT WE GAINED WE
GAIN BY AN ADDITIONAL EIGHTEEN
PEOPLE BEING COUNTED.
SO EVERY SINGLE ONE PERSON DOES
COUNT ME MISS YOU KNOW TWENTY
PEOPLE IN YOUR DISTRICT IT CAN
IT CAN REALLY SHIFT.
WHAT THAT REAPPORTIONMENT LOOKS
LIKE?
SO I GUESS WHAT YOU'RE TELLING
ME THEN
THE FEDERAL CONTRIBUTION IN TWO
THOUSAND WASN'T THAT MUCH.
.
THE FIFTY MILLION PLUS WHATEVER
WE'RE ABLE TO.
CONVINCE THE OUTSIDE THIRD HOUSE
ANNOUNCE OUTSIDE COMMUNITIES TO
HELP WITH.
.
TOGETHER WITH THE FEDS COULD PUT
US IN RATHER UNPRECEDENTED LEVEL
OF FINANCIAL COMMITMENT HERE IN
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA YES BUT
WE'RE FACING I THINK UNLIKE TWO
THOUSAND TWO THOUSAND TEN AND
SORT OF THE ENVIRONMENT. OF FEAR
THE ONLINE RIGHT.
THERE'S JUST A A NUMBER OF.
BARRIERS AND PAIN POINTS THAT
WE'RE FACING THAT WE DID HAVE TO
FACE BEFORE
OKAY WELL REASON I ASK IS I KNOW
MY COLLEAGUES. ALMOST
UNIVERSALLY IF NOT UNIVERSALLY
ARE VERY VERY CONCERNED ABOUT
THIS.
WE'RE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT
WHETHER FORTY POINT THREE
MILLION I THINK THEIR CONCERNED
I AM. IS ADEQUATE.
SO I LOOK FORWARD TO.
CONTINUING TOO FREQUENTLY
REVISIT THIS AND MAKE SURE THAT
WE DO EVERYTHING THAT WE CAN TO.
STAFF THIS STATE EFFORT UP.
TO MAKE SURE THAT ANYBODY WHO
HAS ANY INTEREST IN.
PROVIDING INFORMATION HAS A FULL
OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO DESPITE THE
BARRIERS THAT EVERYBODY SEEMS TO
BE PLACING IN FRONT OF US.
FINANCE.
DO THEY ASK YOU READY.
BUT I THINK THAT THANK YOU ILIO.
I'M WE DON'T HAVE MUCH ADD SOME
WAYS TO SAY THAT.
CLEARLY HAVING ACCURATE AND
COMPLETE COUNT FOR CALIFORNIA'S
IN THE STATE'S FISCAL
INTEREST-FOR FEDERAL FUNDING
ABSOLUTELY
SO. WE DON'T ALWAYS TELL PEOPLE
TO COME BACK WITH THEIR HAND OUT
BUT I THINK MOST OF MY IF NOT
ALL OF MY COLLEAGUES WOULD ASK
YOU TO COME BACK WITH YOUR HAND
OUT IF THIS ISN'T ENOUGH PUBLIC
COMMENT.
THERE MUST BE SO.
AFTERNOON DOROTHEA PARK WITH LOS
ANGELES COUNTY ON BEHALF OF
WORDS SUPERVISORS I'M WITH THE
CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICE.
AND I'M HERE TODAY TO SAY WE DO
SUPPORT THE GOVERNOR'S ASK OF A
ADDITIONAL FORTY MILLION DOLLARS
HOWEVER THE PROPOSED. THREE
MILLION ALLOCATION FOR THE LOCAL
COMPLETE COUNT COMMITTEES IS
LIKELY TO BE SUFFICIENT TO
SUPPORT THE NECESSARY OUTREACH
CAMPAIGN NEEDED FOR COUNTIES.
STATEWIDE IN LOS A AND IN LOS
ANGELES COUNTY ALONE WERE
ESTIMATING THAT ARE NEED WOULD
BE ABOUT EIGHT POINT SEVEN
MILLION.
THE REASON WE SAY THAT IS WE ARE
ACTUALLY THE HARDEST COUNTY TO
COUNTY IN THE NATION.
WE HAVE ABOUT FORTY FIVE PERCENT
OF OUR POPUP OUR HOUSEHOLDS ARE
IN HARD TO SURVEY AREAS. AND THE
STATE NUMBER FOR THAT IS THAT
TWENTY NINE PERCENT SO WE SEE
THE STATE AVERAGE MOST
SIGNIFICANT WAY.
WE WANT TO UTILIZE THE SPINES
AND NEAR A LOT OF WHAT THE
STATE'S DOING BY BOTH ALSO
HAVING T ON THE AIR AND ON THE
GROUND CAMPAIGN AFTER REGIONAL
LOCAL LEVEL. TIM MESSAGE AND
REACH THESE HARD TO SURVEY
POPULATIONS AS WELL AS THE
COUNTY WIDE REGION.
HOWEVER AND TO EMPHASIZE THE
PROGRAMS THAT FEDERAL PROGRAMS
THAT ARE FUNDED.
THROUGH.
THESE DOLLARS THAT WE RECEIVED
AT THE FEDERAL LEVEL AND A LOT
OF STATE MATCHING DOLLARS TO
THOSE PROGRAMS.
AND IN ADDITION TO THAT WE ALSO
WANT TO. SUPPORT THE.
AT THE.
QUESTIONNAIRE SYSTEM CENTERS BY
CREATING OUR OWN CENSUS ACTION
KIOSKS
WE HAVE COUNTLESS NUMBERS OF
COUNTY FACILITIES WE'VE ALSO
PARTNERED WITH THE CITY OF LOS
ANGELES AN ALREADY ESTABLISHED
COMPLETE CAO COMMITTEES. WITH
THEM WE ARE WORKING WITH ALL OF
ARMENIA EIGHTY EIGHT MISS
PALLICE.
WE ARE ALSO A REPRESENTING OUR
HUNDRED AND FORTY UNINCORPORATED
AREAS. AND WE WANT TO STEP
ESTABLISH THOSE KIOSKS
BOTH IN ALL OF OUR GOVERNMENT
BUILDINGS AND ANYONE ELSE WE CAN
PARTNER WITH THROUGHOUT THE
COUNTY.
I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR YOUR
TIME AND LISTENING TO THIS ISSUE
TODAY.
WELL HOPEFULLY PEOPLE ARE
INVITING AS STAKEHOLDERS TO THE
TABLE TO ABSOLUTELY DRESS UNLIKE
MOST OF THE SUBJECTS IF WE DEAL
WITH IN THIS BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE
AND OTHERS.
WE'RE NOT STANDING HERE WITH
OUR BOOTS ON YOUR HEAD TRYING TO
DRIVE THE PRICE DOWN WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE.
THAT I DON'T SPEAK FOR THE
ADMINISTRATION.
BUT HERE WE WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT WE AT LEAST. SUPPORT
EFFORTS TO PROVIDE AS MUCH AS
MUCH MONEY AS IS NEEDED. TO DO
THE JOB RIGHT.
NOT TO TOUCH JUST DO THE JOB SO
YOU RAISE SOME INTERESTING
ISSUES I'M SURE YOU'VE BEEN
HEARD AND WILL GO TO WORK ON

OVER SIX MILLION OF OUR STATES
RESIDENTS.
AND THE BUDGET CHANGE PROPOSAL
WHILE IT LISTS LANGUAGE ACCESS

HAS MADE SENSE IS THAT MUCH OF
A PRIORITY AS GOVERNOR BROWN HAS
SO WE THANK HIM FOR HIS
LEADERSHIP AND THIS LEADERSHIP
IS NEEDED. A BECAUSE CALIFORNIA
HAS A LOT TO LOSE IN THIS
POLITICAL CLIMATE ON THE FEDERAL
LEVEL.
CALIFORNIA'S INTENTIONALLY
BEING UNDERMINED AND ATTACKED
INSTANCES TWENTY TWENTY IS A ONE
AVENUE IN EACH WEEK IN WHICH
IT'S BEING DONE SO.
OVER PLEASED TO SEE THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL A FORTY
POINT THREE MILLION DOLLARS
HOWEVER WE BELIEVE IT'S JUST NOT
ENOUGH.
THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE FOR OF
THE COMMUNITY BASED
ORGANIZATIONS AND WHAT'S ON
ATTACHED ABOUT FUNDING. AND WHY
DO YOU BELIEVE THAT BELIEVE
THAT.
SAYS IS POLICY ADVOCATES YOU
NEVER DID AN ANALYSIS AND JUST
TO GIVE YOU AN EXAMPLE.
SUIT FOR EXAMPLE LATINO
POPULATIONS THAT FALL UNDER THE
HTC TRACKS HARD TO COUNTERACT WE
HAVE ABOUT FIVE POINT OF FIVE
MILLION. ARE LATINOS THAT FALL
INTO THAT CATEGORY IN AN
ADDITIONAL TWO MILLION THAT ARE
EACH TT POPULATION MEDINA
POPULATION. AND A AND A THROUGH
OUR ESTIMATES ARE ONE POINT FOUR
MILLION OF THESE WOULD BE WHAT
WOULD BE CONSIDERED HIGH
RESOURCE BASED HTC POPULATIONS
TO RECIBE OWES. AND I'M NOT I'M
JUST TALKING ABOUT ONE HARD TO
COUNT POPULATION THERE ABOUT
EIGHT TO NINE DIFFERENT
POPULATIONS THAT ARE CONSIDERED.
HARD TO COUNT ASSUMES WE BELIEVE
THE FUNDING IS JUST NOT ENOUGH.
TO HAVING SAID THAT WE'RE
PROPOSED IT WE'RE NOT PROPOSING
A HARD BIRDS IT BUT TO ASK
TODAY.
BUT WE WANT TO CONTINUE WORKING
WITH YOU THE LEADERSHIP AND THE
ADMINISTRATION IN LANDING A
COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH IN AN
AMOUNT. FOR THIS EFFORT AND YOU
WANT TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A
DETAILED ANALYSIS OF THE GAPS

FORESEE. HOW HE SAID THAT FORTY
MILLION DOLLARS IS NOT ENOUGH?
WE LOOK FORWARD TO WORKING WITH

WANT BUT IT'S WHAT'S NECESSARY
FOR CALIFORNIA TO COUNT THANK

AND IF THOSE NUMBERS ARE NOT
REFLECTED IN THE BUDGET PROPOSAL
THEN WE NEED TO HAVE A
CONVERSATION ABOUT HOW TO CHANGE
THE BUDGET PROPOSAL WHICH I'M
CERTAINLY WILLING TO ENTERTAIN
IT WOULD BE HELPFUL IF.
EVERYBODY SORT OF AGREES ON WHAT
THE NUMBER IS AND WHAT THE
CHANGES AND THEN. WE CAN APPLY
THAT AGAINST THE AVAILABLE
DOLLARS IN THE BUDGET RIGHT AND
SEE IF THEY'RE MORE AVAILABLE
DOLLARS BECAUSE. YOUR ABSOLUTE
RIGHT THIS IS NOT.
A TASK THAT WE JUST NEED TO GET
DONE WE NEED TO GET IT DONE
RIGHT.
AND IF YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET IT

GOOD AFTERNOON JOE MICHAEL FOR
EQUALITY CALIFORNIA WE ARE ALSO
A MEMBER OF THAT CALIFORNIA.
CENSUS POLICY ADVOCATES THE
NETWORKING AND IN TERMS OF THE
LGBTQ COMMUNITY IN PARTICULAR I
WE WE FACE A SIGNIFICANT
CHALLENGE.
FROM MULTIPLE DIFFERENT
PERSPECTIVES WITHIN THE
COMMUNITY. THERE ARE A LOT OF
WAYS IN WHICH THE COMMUNITY IS
NOT REFLECTED ON THE CENSUS AND
IN OTHER WAYS OF GATHERING DATA.
ON THE ONLY WAY THAT LGBTQ FOLKS
ARE COUNTED SPECIFICALLY IN THE
CONTEXT OF THE SUN SAID THIS IS
AREN'T MARRIED COUPLES WHO ARE
SAME SEX COUPLES THAT'S THAT'S
IT. SO AS YOU MIGHT ASSUME THAT
MISSES A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO
IDENTIFY AS LGBTQ.
SO THERE'S THAT ISSUE WHICH CAN
BE A BARRIER FOR SOME PEOPLE IN
THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY WHO REALLY
WANT TO BE COUNTED AND REFLECTED
AND WHO FEEL THAT THE CENSUS IS
NOT DOING THAT AND THEREFORE OPT
OUT BASICALLY. I'M SO THAT'S ONE
SEGMENT OF THE LGBTQ POPULATION
THAT WE REPRESENT AND THERE'S
ALSO A SEGMENT OF THE COMMUNITY
THAT IS CONCERNED ABOUT BEING
IDENTIFIED AS A DEFEAT YOU. SO
WE'RE TRYING TO NAVIGATE THAT
WITHIN OUR OWN COMMUNITY.
GET FOLKS TO BE WILLING TO
ENGAGE WITH THE CENSUS WHATEVER
THAT TAKES FOR THEM ESPECIALLY
FOR MEMBERS OF OTHER
MARGINALIZED COMMUNITIES SO
WE'RE WORKING ON THAT PROBLEM BE
COMMUNITY BASED ORGANIZING AN
OUTREACH SIDE OF THINGS. AYE IN
TERMS OF WHAT IS NEEDED TO MAKE
THE CENSUS ACCESSIBLE FOR
EVERYONE INCLUDING THE LGBTQ
COMMUNITY. ADDITIONAL FUNDING IS
REALLY THE BEST WAY TO DO THAT
AND TO MAKE SURE THAT THESE
POPULATIONS ARE ALL BEING
REACHED THAT WE ARE NOT MISSING
PEOPLE SO THAT IS OUR INTEREST
AS WELL ON ALONG WITH OUR
COLLEAGUES. AND I I WAS ALSO
ASKED TO STATE THE SUPPORT OF
CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
NONPROFITS WAS NOT ABLE TO BE

PRIMARY POPULATIONS THAT TEND TO
GET MISS. AND ESPECIALLY LOOK AT
THE CURRENT NATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
WHERE CERTAIN TO COMMUNITIES ARE
NOT NECESSARILY.
YEAH EXCITED ABOUT BEING COUNTED
IN SOME WAY OR ANOTHER BECAUSE
OF THE POTENTIAL RAMIFICATIONS
THAT THEY PERCEIVE. ARE ON THE
HORIZON AND SO WE REALLY
ENCOURAGING THANK YOU SO MUCH

COMFORTABLE.
CITY OR.
JUDITH FOR YOURSELVES AT THE
TABLE I THINK I KNOW WHO YOU ARE
BUT LET'S GO FOR THE RECORD.
KARLUK US NEAR THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE.
GREG BRUST DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
THANK YOU GOOD TO SEE YOU BOTH
AGAIN OKAY OKAY RUN RATE.
AND HAULING SAID ELIANE.
SO MAYBE SPEAKING FROM A HAND
OUT THE YOU SHOULD HAVE IN FRONT
OF YOU. I'M TALKING ABOUT
PROPOSITION TWO IN THE TWENTY
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN BUDGET. WITH
SPECIFIC FOCUS ON THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSALS IN PROPOSITION TWO.
AND SOME PROPOSALS THAT ARE
PROBABLY RELATED.
SO JUST STARTING. WITH THE
OVERVIEW ON PAGE ONE.
UP PROPOSITION TWO HAS TWO BASIC
REQUIREMENTS OF THE STATE IT
REQUIRES THE STATE TO SET
MINIMUM AMOUNTS ASIDE EACH YEAR.
TO MAKE ANNUAL DEBT PAYMENTS AND
TO MAKE RESERVE DEPOSITS INTO
THE STATES RAINY DAY FUND.
THESE REQUIREMENTS WILL TEND TO
GO UP WHEN WHEN REVENUES ARE
DOING THAT BETTER AND THEY WILL
TEND TO. GO DOWN.
DURING A RECESSION OR WHEN
REVENUES AT LOWER.
MINUTES TALK THROUGH EACH OF
THESE POINTS.
UP IN A LITTLE BIT OF DETAIL AND
AND SPECIFICALLY AROUND THE
TWENTY EIGHTEEN NINETEEN BUDGET
PROPOSALS. SO. IN TWENTY TWO
NINETEEN UNDER THE GOVERNOR'S
ESTIMATES THESE REQUIREMENTS ARE
ONE POINT FIVE BILLION DOLLARS
EACH.
OFFER BOTH DAD AND FOR RESERVES
BUT THE GOVERNOR ALSO PROPOSES
DEPOSITING ADDITIONAL.
THREE POINT FIVE BILLION DOLLARS
SINCE IT INTO THE STATE'S RAINY
DAY FUND AND THIS WOULD BRING
THE FUN TO ITS CONSTITUTIONAL
MAXIMUM.
SO TURNING TO THE NEXT PAGE.
I JUST TALKED REALLY BRIEFLY
ABOUT DEBT PAYMENTS.
.
BECAUSE MOST OF THE FOCUS IN A
PROPOSALS THIS YEAR IS AND
RESERVES.
SO I THIS TABLE TO SHOW THE
ADMINISTRATION'S PROPOSITION TO.
DEBT PER.
DEBT PAYMENTS IN THE TWENTY
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN BUDGET. MANY
OF THESE ARE EITHER STATUTORILY
REQUIRED OR ARE PRIORITIES THAT
THE LEGISLATURE IN THE
ADMINISTRATION. HAVE GENERALLY
AGREED TO IN THE PAST.
I WILL GO THROUGH THE WHOLE
LIST BUT JUST TO HIGHLIGHT SOME
OF THE BIGGER PIECES. SO YOU
MIGHT RECALL THAT IN TWENTY
SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN THAT THE
STATE MADE A SUPPLEMENTAL
PAYMENT TO THE CALPERS.
TO CALPERS OF SIX BILLION
DOLLARS THAT PAYMENT IS BEING
REPAID A BY GENERAL FUND AND ALL
OTHER SPECIAL FUNDS THAT MAKE
PENSION PAYMENTS.
THE GENERAL FUND PORTION OF
REPAYMENTS ARE COMING OUT OF
PROPOSITION TWO AND SO THAT FOUR
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY FIVE MILLION
THAT YOU SEE IS THE SECOND ITEM
IS THE FOR AS THIS ACTUALLY
SECOND YOUR REPAYMENTS ARE. FROM
THE GENERAL FUND.
I THERE'S ALSO A VARIETY OF
SPECIAL FUNDS ARE BEING REPAID.
WHERE PRE FUNDING RETIREE
HEALTH WITH PROPOSITION TWO AND
RETAIN SOME PROPOSITION NINETY
EIGHT SETTLE UP? I WOULD ALSO
JUST NOTE THAT THE BUDGET ALSO
MAKES BILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN
DEBT PAYMENTS EACH YEAR OUTSIDE
OF PROPOSITION TWO SO THIS IS
JUST WHAT'S.
CONSTITUTIONALLY REQUIRED SORT
OF ON TOP OF WHAT WE DO OUTSIDE
APPROACH.
UPDATES ARE TURNING TO THE NEXT
PAGE I'M GONNA TALK ABOUT
RESERVES NOW.
SO THE GOVERNOR PROPOSES.
WITHOUT THREE POINT FIVE
OPTIONAL DEPOSIT THREE POINT
FIVE BILLION DOLLAR OPTIONAL
DEPOSIT INTO THE STATE'S RAINY
DAY FUND. A TOTAL RESERVE LEVEL
OF SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS AS
YOU CAN SEE. UP FROM THE FIGURE
THIS PROPOSED LEVEL SHOWN IN THE
BARS OF THE INACTIVE LEVEL OF
RESERVES WOULD BE THE HIGHEST
LEVEL OF RESERVES ENACTED.
SINCE THE EARLY NINETEEN
EIGHTIES AT LEAST
AND AS YOU CAN SEE THE STATE WAS
GENERALLY BEEN ACTING HIGHER
LEVELS OF RESERVES IN RECENT
YEARS AND I HAD FOR DECADES SO
IN THE BARS.
THAT SHOWS YOU ENACTED LEVELS
OF THE THE AMOUNT THAT WE PUT IN
THE BUDGET SORT OF PROSPECTIVELY
AND AND THE JOSH LINES LOSER ARE
ACTUAL LEVEL SO IT'S SORT OF THE
RETROSPECTIVE LOOK AT HOW MUCH
RESERVES WERE ACTUALLY.
THOSE CAN FLUCTUATE AROUND ZERO
BECAUSE REVENUES CAN END UP
BEING MUCH LOWER THAN THE SORT
OF ANTICIPATE.
BUT ACCORDING TO THE
CONSTITUTION AND THE BUDGET
HOUSE TO PASS A BALANCED BUDGET%
SO WERE ENACTED RESERVES HAVE TO
BE GREATER THAN ZERO.
SO TRYING TO THE NEXT PAGE AND.
WHILE THE GOVERNOR SIXTEEN
BILLION DOLLARS ARE PROPOSAL. IS
HISTORIC IT IS NOT PARTICULARLY
REMARKABLE BY NATIONAL STANDARDS
SO THIS COMPARES CALIFORNIA'S
RESERVES TO A FIFTY STATE MEDIA.
AS YOU CAN SEE IN TWENTY
SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN.
ENACTED LEVELS WERE JUST ABOVE
THE MEDIA RIGHT RATE PRETTY MUCH
CLOSE TO THE MEDIA. AND THIS
PROPOSED LEVEL WOULD BRING A
SOMEWHAT ABOUT THE MEDIUM BUT
NOT FOR DEATH STRIKINGLY SO.
SIR TURNING TO PAGE FIVE.
MINUTES TALK ABOUT WHY RESERVES
ARE SORT OF IMPORTANT FROM A
BUDGETARY CONTACTS ARE WHY WE
HAVE THEM HOW THEY SORT OF HELP
THE STATE ADDRESS BUDGET
PROBLEMS. AND THEN I'LL TALK
ABOUT.
TOOLS IN ADDITION TO RESERVES
THAT THE STATE HAS TO RESPOND TO
A RECESSION.
SO AS I AM.
YOU LIKELY NOW RECESSION COULD
COME AT ANY MOMENT AND RESERVES
ARE ESSENTIALLY WHAT ALLOWS THE
STATE I TO WHETHER ABOUT
RECESSION WITH MINIMAL
DISRUPTIONS TO OTHER PROGRAMS.
TWO IMPORTANT THINGS HAPPENED
DURING A RECESSION.
REVENUES WILL FALL AND THAT'S TO
BE EXPECTED UNEMPLOYMENT GOES UP
INCOMES GO DOWN ON PEOPLE SPEND
LESS MONEY IS OF COURSE REVENUES
FROM THE PERSONAL INCOME TAX AND
EVEN THE SALES TAX. WILL TEND TO
GO DOWN I'M BUT THEY HAVE A SORT
OF SECOND IMPORTANT BUDGETARY
CONSEQUENCE AND THAT'S THAT
RESERVE THAT RECESSIONS ALSO
AFFECT SPENDING IN CALIFORNIA.
I'M THAT'S BECAUSE MUCH OF THE
CALIFORNIA BUDGET IS BASED ON
SOME CONSTITUTIONAL FORMULAS
THAT DRIVE SPENDING MOST NOTABLY
PROPOSITION NINETY EIGHT THE
DRIVE SPENDING IN SCHOOLS AND
COMMUNITY COLLEGES.
AND AS A RESULT.
.
OUR OFFICES ARE OFFICE ESTIMATES
THAT ABOUT HALF OF INITIAL
REVENUE LOSS CAN BE.
OFFSET BY THOSE SPENDING
CHANGES BECAUSE SPENDING WILL
TEND TO ALSO GO DOWN DURING A
RECESSION. SO THE THE TABLE AT
THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE SHOWS
JUST SOME VERY ILLUSTRATIVE
SCENARIOS IN TERMS OF WHAT COULD
HAPPEN IN A MILD RECESSIONOR A
MODERATE SESSION BOTH TO
REVENUES AND ALSO TO THIS
FORMULA DRIVEN ADJUSTMENTS.
SO WE SHOW THAT A MILD RECESSION
COULD RESULT IN ABOUT FORTY
BILLION OF REVENUE LOSSES BUT
THEN TWENTY BILLION IN A BUDGET
PROBLEM IN THE SORT OF NOT A
FAX.
AND A MODERATE RECESSION COULD
RESULT IN EIGHTY BILLION IN
REVENUE LOSSES BUT ABOUT A FORTY
BILLION DOLLAR BUDGET PROBLEM.
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PAST
THREE RECESSIONS REVENUE LOSSES
HAVE RANGE FROM ABOUT FORTY
BILLION DOLLARS TO OVER A
HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS.
SO JUST TRYING TO THE NEXT PAGE
AYE RESERVES.
ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT TOOL THAT
THE STATE HAS TO ADDRESS OUR
RECESSION BUT THEY ARE NOT THE
ONLY TOOL THAT THE STATE HOUSE.
THIS YOU CAN ALSO USE ONE TIME
SPENDING WHICH WOULD TEND TO
REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF A BUDGET
PROBLEM BECAUSE SPENDING IN THE
CURRENT YEAR WOULD NOT HAVE TO
BE CARRIED FORWARD TO FUTURE
YEARS.
AND ARE ONCE THE STATE ACTUALLY
GETS INTO THE RECESSION AND IT
HAS A VARIETY OF ACTIONS THAT IT
CAN'T TAKE OR MUST TAKE IN THAT
CASE. OUGHT TO BALANCE THE
BUDGET IF RESERVES ARE
INSUFFICIENT TO THIS WOULD
INCLUDE OBVIOUSLY REDUCING
SPENDING. ALSO RAISING TAXES OR
SHIFTING COSTS.
SO THIS TABLE TO SHOWS CLUSTERED
OF WAY YOU KNOW HOW WOULD THE
BUDGET FARE WITH SAY FIFTEEN
BILLION DOLLARS OF REVENUES
ROSARIO OF ADEN RESERVES. IN A
MILD RECESSION OR IN A MODERATE
RECESSION.
IN A MILD RECESSION.
FIFTEEN BILLION DOLLARS IN
RESERVES WOULD BE ROUGHLY ENOUGH
TO KEEP THE BUDGET IN BALANCE
THAT WOULD ONLY BE ABOUT FIVE
BILLION DOLLARS IN ACTIONS
REQUIRED. BUT IN A MODERATE
RECESSION FIFTEEN BILLION
DOLLARS WOULD LIKELY YOU LESS
THAN ADEQUATE IN THAT THERE
WOULD BE YOU KNOW ABOUT TWENTY
FIVE BILLION DOLLARS IN ACTIONS
REQUIRED. A ONCE THE STATE
ACTUALLY REACHED A POINT.
SO JUST OUT OF THE FINAL PAGE TO
GIVE OUR OFFICES COMMENTS.
AND WE RECOMMEND THAT THE
LEGISLATURE SET THIS YEAR'S
RESERVE TARGET ACTS OR ABOVE THE
SIXTEEN BILLION DOLLARS THAT IS
CURRENTLY PROPOSED BY THE
GOVERNOR.
I'M AND IF THE LEGISLATURE IS
LOOKING FOR FUTURE RESERVES TO
IN FACT BE HIGHER THAN SIXTEEN
BILLION DOLLARS. THEN AND IT'S
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL WOULD
COUNTER INTUITIVELY MAKE
RESERVES HA MORE DIFFICULT TO
BUILD IN THE FUTURE.
AND THAT'S BECAUSE AS I
MENTIONED EARLIER THAT THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL.
WOULD PLACE ENOUGH FOR RESERVES
INTO THE STATE'S RAINY DAY FUND
SO THAT IT REACHES ITS
CONSTITUTIONAL MAXIMUM.
I REACHING THE MAXIMUM WE
ACTUALLY CREATE.
A SPENDING OBLIGATION FOR
INFRASTRUCTURE SOME MONEY THAT
WOULD HAVE ACTUALLY GONE INTO
THE BSA BY FORMULA WILL HAVE TO
BE SPENT ON INFRASTRUCTURE.
AND SO THIS WOULD. BASICALLY
WOULD DIRECT ABOUT A BILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR THAT WOULD HAVE
GONE TO RESERVES.
TO INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING.
IF THE LEGISLATURE WAS
INTERESTED IN BUILDING MORE
RESERVES ON THE GOVERNOR
PROPOSES WE HAVE A FEW
ALTERNATIVES INCLUDING AMENDING
SOME RULES IN THE STATE'S
TRADITIONAL RESERVE. UP PLACING
HIS MONIES INTO A THIRD RESERVE
OR PRE PAIN PENSION COSTS
UNDER THAT ALTERNATIVE THE
LEGISLATURE WOULD ESSENTIALLY.
GIVE THREE POINT FIVE BILLION
DOLLARS TO CALPERS THIS YEAR IN
ADDITION TO WHAT IS
CONSTITUTIONALLY REQUIRED AND
THEN AT SOME FUTURE YEAR. COULD
AND REDUCE ITS CONSTITUTIONALLY
REQUIRED AMOUNTS UP BY THE SAME
AMOUNT AND THAT WOULD ALSO SAVE
THE STATE MONEY. BE HAPPY TO
TAKE ANY QUESTIONS.
IT WOULD COULD YOU BE A LITTLE
MORE SPECIFIC ON THE
RESTRICTIONS ON THE SPECIAL FUND
FOR ECONOMIC INSERTING MY
UNDERSTANDING IS.
THAT AT A CERTAIN LEVEL IT
REQUIRES A MANDATORY REDUCTION
AND STATEWIDE SALES TAX SO HOW
MUCH.
HOW MUCH HEAD ROOM WOULD WE HAVE
DO WE HAVE IN THE IN THE SPECIAL
FUND FOR ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY?
?
IF THE EXTREME IF ANY. IF THE
EXTRA MONEY WERE DIRECTED INTO
THE SPECIAL FUND AS OPPOSED TO
THE BSA RAINY DAY FUND RIGHT. UP
WE WOULDN'T HAVE ENOUGH ROOM FOR
THE ENTIRE THREE POINT FIVE
BILLION TO GOING TO THE US I
FEEL. THE GOVERNOR'S PROPOSING
AN SFU BOUNCE OF TWO POINT THREE
BILLION DOLLARS.
THOSE TRIGGERS THAT YOU MENTION
THERE'S TO SET UP A STATUTORY
SALES TAX TRIGGERS IN WHICH IF
THE SFE REACHES A CERTAIN.
THRESHOLD AND THE RULES ARE A
LITTLE BIT COMPLICATED BUT I'VE
RECENT REACHES A CERTAIN CERTAIN
THRESHOLD THEN.
THE SALES TAX RATE WOULD REDUCE
BY ONE QUARTER SEND WHICH WOULD
REDUCE THE SFU BY ABOUT ONE
POINT SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS.
AND THOSE CAPS ARE AROUND FOUR
OR FIVE BILLION DOLLARS SO
WORRIED ABOUT HALF OF THAT.
SO.
MAYBE THIS GOES TO FINANCE MAYBE
UTILITY THOUGH.
AND MY CONCERN.
IS.
IF WE FUND THE BSA THEN WERE
REQUIRED TO START SPENDING MONEY
ON INTEREST.
THERE'S NOBODY AROUND HERE THAT
THINKS WE DON'T HAVE AN
INFRASTRUCTURE NEED.
AND A BILLION DOLLARS ON
INFRASTRUCTURE IS A DROP IN THE
BUCKET.
.
DOESN'T THEIR VERY FEW PEOPLE
AROUND HERE THAT DON'T THINK WE
HAVE A PENSION.
PROBLEM IN TERMS OF UNFUNDED
LIABILITY.
AND PROBABLY VERY FEW IF ANY
PEOPLE WHO WOULDN'T BE IN FAVOR
OF MOVING MONEY.
A TO PAY DOWN PENSION DEATH
HOWEVER WHEN YOU MOVE FORWARD
INTO A PERIOD OF ECONOMIC
UNCERTAINTY.
THAT IS ALMOST CERTAIN TO OCCUR
AND THE ONLY QUESTION IS IS IT
TWENTY BILLION IS IT FORTY
BILLION.
IS IT FIVE BILLION AND I CAN.
NOT HAVING BEEN HERE BUT HAVING
BEEN HERE.
FOR SIX YEARS NOW.
CUTTING FIVE BILLION DOLLARS OUT
OF THE CALIFORNIA BUDGET LET
ALONE FORTY BILLION DOLLARS HAS
GOT TO BE.
A VERY UGLY.
OPPORTUNITY.
SO MOVING FORWARD INTO A PERIOD
OF ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY WHY
WOULD WE WANT TO DO ANYTHING
THAT WOULD TIRE HANDS.
WHETHER IT'S FORCING US TO SPEND
MONEY BADLY NEEDED MONEY BY THE
WAY ON INFRASTRUCTURE BUT MAYBE
THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE AT THAT
POINT TIME THAT. THAT HAS A
GREATER NEED.
WHY WOULD WE WANT A TIRE HANDS
BY PUTTING?
OF MONEY AT THIS POINT INTO
REDUCING THE FURTHER REDUCING
THE UNFUNDED PENSION LIABILITY.
EVEN NO THATS A GOOD THING AND
MAYBE WE CAN GET IT BACK SOMEHOW
BECAUSE IT'S AN ADVANCE.
BUT MEN WHY WOULD WE WANT TO PUT
THAT INTO A WRITTEN ACCOUNT THAT
IS UNRESTRICTED THAT WOULD GIVE
US THE MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY.
TO OTHER MOVE FORWARD WITH THE
PAYMENT TO UNFUNDED PENSION
LIABILITY MOVE FORWARD TO A
PAYMENT TOWARD OUR
INFRASTRUCTURE.
A LIABILITY BANK
OR OR SOMETHING ELSE
IS THAT A FAIR QUESTION. COURSE
I AND I THINK I CAN ADDRESS THAT
KIND OF WITH WHERE WE'VE BEEN
AND HOW WE WILL HOW ARE PROPOSAL
IS INTENDED TO WORK GOING
FORWARD.
THE BUDGET STABILIZATION
ACCOUNT OF COURSE WAS
ESTABLISHED IN TWO THOUSAND FOUR
AND IT DID HAVE.
LESS RESTRICTIONS AT THE TIME
POST THE GREAT RECESSION. THE
NEED FOR MORE FISCAL DISCIPLINE
AND AND A STRUCTURED.
REQUIREMENT FOR WITHDRAWALS ARE
FOR EVEN SETTING BACK OUT FOR
RESERVE REQUIREMENT WAS APPROVED
BY THE VOTERS.
THAT CALPERS THE TEN PERCENT OF.
WHEN.
AS YOU MENTIONED IN THE
UNCERTAIN TIMES OTTO. AT THE END
OF THIS YEAR WERE APPROACHING
NINE YEARS OF EXPANSION PERIOD
AND THE THE COURAGE. HIGHEST
NUMBER IS TEN YEARS AND WE WILL
REACH THAT BY THE END OF NEXT
YEAR.
WITHOUT UNCERTAINTY WE THINK
THAT.
THE WAY PROP TWO WAS INTENDED IN
OUT TO MITIGATE THE VOLATILITY
OF OF REVENUES WAS SET ASIDE.
SPECIFIC PORTIONS.
.
AND THEM THE RULES AROUND THAT
WITHDRAWAL ARE ARE INTENDED TO
HELP US. MAINTAIN THAT
DISCIPLINE BORROWER UNCERTAIN
WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.
TO THE EXTENT THE ECONOMY
CONTINUES TO GROW AND WE
SURPASS.
THOSE PRODUCTION OR THE RECENT
HISTORY.
INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING AS
APPROVED BY THE VOTERS AND THERE
IS FLEXIBILITY IN WHAT THAT
INFRASTRUCTURE COULD BE IT ITS
REFERENCES GENERAL AT THE
GOVERNMENT CODE.
SECTION OF THE
THERE ARE OTHER BUDGET
CALCULATIONS THAT THEY'VE BECOME
CONSTRAINTS FOR CONSIDERATION
AND INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING IS
INCLUDED FROM THOSE FOR EXAMPLE
STATE APPROPRIATIONS LIMITS BUT
BUT BUT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT A
REQUIRED DEPOSIT AND IF I. IF I
UNDERSTAND THE SCENARIO
CORRECTLY.
OF ONE POINT FIVE BILLION IN THE
BSA IT'S REQUIRED THAT'S
CONSTITUTIONAL RECORD SOME WERE
MEETING OUR CONSTITUTIONAL
REQUIREMENT. BUT THE
ADMINISTRATION IS PROPOSING THAT
AN ADDITIONAL THREE POINT FIVE
BILLION. GO INTO THE BSA WHICH
HAS ITS OWN SERIES OF
RESTRICTIONS WHICH.
MEG BUT SOME HERE WEEK SAY IS A
GOOD THING.
A MAYBE MOST.
OF. INSTEAD OF TAKING THE THREE
POINT FIVE BILLION NOT SPENDING
IT BUT PUTTING IT INTO SOME
OTHER RESERVE ACCOUNT THAT IS.
GIVES MAXIMUM FLEXIBILITY TO
THE ADMINISTRATION TO THE
LEGISLATURE TO.
DO YOU WITH THE CRISIS TO SURE
WHICH WE DEFINITELY WILL HAVE AT
SOME LEVEL. SO YOU CAN YOU
ADDRESS THAT WHY THE WAR Y. THE
THREE POINT FIVE. ADDITIONAL
MONEY OVER AND ABOVE WHAT'S
CONSTITUTIONALLY REQUIRED. INTO
THE SOMEWHAT RESTRICTIVE
RAINY DAY FUND AS OPPOSED TO
SOME OTHER.
SAVINGS ACCOUNT THAT EITHER
EXISTS OR THAT WE ESTABLISH.
AT ILEUS FOR THAT MORE
STRUCTURED DISCIPLINED APPROACH
BUT I THERE IS ANOTHER COMPONENT
TO THE PROPOSAL THAT.
.
SORT OF ADDRESSES THAT.
UNCERTAINTY GOING FORWARD I IN
TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN OF THE
SUBMITTAL DEPOSIT WAS ALSO
CONSIDERED A TRUE UP FOR THAT
PRIOR FISCAL YEARS FOR THE THAT
BUDGET YEAR AND THE YEAR BEFORE.
THIS PROPOSAL WOULD ADDRESS
GOING FORWARD AS WELL SO THAT
TRUE OF MECHANISM THAT'S PART OF
THE NATURAL CALCULATION THAT AS
THE REVENUES THAT JUST.
THIS SUPPLEMENTAL DEPOSIT MAY
BE.
LOWER HIGHER DEPENDING ON HOW
THAT TRIP WORKS EVEN IN NINETEEN
TWENTY.
RIGHT BUT DOES THAT.
MAYBE I MISSED IT DOES THAT
ADDRESS.
A DESTINATION FOR THE
SUPPLEMENTAL DEPOSIT NY THE BSA
IS SUPPOSED TO.
THE SPECIAL FUND FOR ECONOMIC
UNCERTAINTIES AS ADJUSTED BY I
GUESS WE CAN JUST.
THE LEGISLATURE STATUTORILY OR
SOME OTHER FUN WHY DON'T WE
ALLOW OURSELVES THE ABILITY.
SINCE THIS DANCE RECORDS TO
PEOPLE WOULD REQUIRE AS HE
ADMINISTRATION IN THE
LEGISLATURE'S WE JUST WE DON'T
HAVE A CHECK BOOK WE CAN JUST
RIGHT.
SO THERE THERE'S LIMITED DANGER
THAT WE'RE GOING TO RUN AWAY
WITH THE BANK.
IT IS MORE FOR THAT FISCAL
DISCIPLINE APPROACH AND THE
MITIGATING OF THE CAPITAL GAINS
VOLATILITY SO SO THE PSA WAS
SELECTED YOU DON'T HAVE TO
ADDRESS THE TRIGGERS ARE IS TWO
POINT THREE IN THE SFU THAT
PROVIDES.
SOME MORE ABOUT FLEXIBILITY BUT
THESE THE SUPPLEMENTAL GOES TO
THAT WERE RESTRICTED.
FOR THE ADDITIONAL DISCIPLINE.
WELL I'M I'M I'M ILLUSTRATING
WHY I'M.
WHILE I WAS GONNA SAY I'M
ILLUSTRATING WHY I'M A LAWYER.
WHICH WAS I PLUNKED MATH AND WHY
AM NOT SOMETHING IN SCIENCE
SURVEYS YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS.
WELL I I JUST DIDN'T HEAR REALLY
AN ANSWER.
THAT'S ALL BUT BESIDES THAT I DO
HAVE SOME OF THE QUESTIONS BUT I
I DO HAVE YOU KNOW EXHAUSTED MY
E. BEGET NOW BECAUSE YOU'RE
REALLY NOT EXPLAINED YOU
UNDERSTAND AS A CONSEQUENCE AND
PUTTING IT IN THE.
THIS OTHER FUND.
AND SO ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT
YOU'D RATHER SPEND IT ON
INFRASTRUCTURE ANY ADDITIONAL
INCREASE THAT COMES ON
INFRASTRUCTURE THAN SAVINGS.
OUR OUR PROPOSAL IS IS MORE IT'S
NOT.
PRIORITIZING THE INFRASTRUCTURE
OF OUR FUTURE GROWTH IT'S IT'S
MORE LOOKOUT ARROWS SAVINGS AND.
IT LIKE THIS UNDERSTAND HIS ITS
GROWTH
SAVINGS.
SO THE SAVINGS IS INTENDED TO
YOU WOULD STILL GROW THE END IN
NUMBERS USING THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET FOR ILLUSTRATE
ILLUSTRATIVE PURPOSES.
THE PROJECTIONS FOR NINETEEN
TWENTY WOULD HAVE CONTINUED
REVENUE GROWTH CONTINUED
EXPENDITURE GROWTH.
AND THERE WOULD BE REQUIREMENTS
FOR ADDITIONAL DEPOSITS ON TOP
OF THE AMOUNT THAT'S AVAILABLE
FOR TO YOU'D STILL HAVE ROOM TO
GROW FOR THE TEN PERCENT.
AND THEN YOU WOULD MAINTAIN A
TEN PERCENT RESERVE WITH. WITH
THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE BSA AND
THEN YOU HAVE INFRASTRUCTURE.
SPENDING. IN THE MULTI YEAR
PROJECTION THOSE WORKLOAD
PROJECTIONS THEY'RE STILL
MAINTAINS A POSITIVE SFU WHILE
MAINTAINING THE TEN PERCENT BSA.
AND APPROXIMATELY BILLION
DOLLARS FOR INFRASTRUCTURE.
SO YOU WOULD RATHER HAVE THE
MONEY BE SPENT ON INFRASTRUCTURE
THAT ON ADDITIONAL SAVINGS.
YEAH UNDER THAT SCENARIO OKAY
WELL LET'S.
THAT'S INFORMATIVE AND.
I
I THINK THERE'S CERTAIN THE
ARGUMENTS FOR THAT AND AND.
AND FOR DOING OTHER THINGS TOO
BUT NOW I THINK I UNDERSTAND IT
BETTER.
WHAT I CAN HAVE IT FROM THERE
WHAT IF YOU HAVE A BUDGET WHAT
IF WE HAVE A BUDGET BELT AND
YOUR BUDGET DEFICIT IS?
FORTY BILLION DOLLARS.
YOU'D RATHER HAVE A BILLION.
GOETHE INFRASTRUCTURE THEN HAVE
A BILLION DOLLARS IN THE.
BANK TO HELP MITIGATE THE FORTY
BILLION DOLLAR.
IT TO THE BUDGET.
THIS IS MY UNDERSTANDING THIS
CORRECTLY AYE I THINK IT'S MORE
ON BEFORE THE REVENUE ACCOUNT
BEFORE THE CALCULATION TAKES
EFFECT THAT MIGHT APPEAR WHAT'S
HAPPENING BUT IN THE EVENT OF
THE REVENUE DECLINE. THAT TEN
PERCENT GOES DOWN AND AS PART OF
THE TRIP THERE IS A RETURN FROM
THE BSA TO THE GENERAL FUND
WITHOUT THE FORMAL FISCAL
EMERGENCY. THE FISCAL EMERGENCY
IS FOR WITHDRAWING FROM THE
BUDGET STABILIZATION ACCOUNT BUT
THERE'S A AT REGULAR TRUCK
MECHANISM.
THAT PUTS MONEY BACK IN THE
EVENT OF SUCH AS A DECLINE.
SO THEN YOU MAY NOT HAVE A
BILLION DOLLARS FOR
INFRASTRUCTURE.
OKAY ALRIGHT.
WELL MAYBE I COULD PIVOT OFF
THAT MISTER CHAIRMAN JUST SICK
COUPLE THINGS AND.
A FIRST I THINK THAT THE THE
GOVERNOR AND THE ADMINISTRATION
DESERVE A LOT OF CREDIT.
WITH THE SUPPORT AND HELP FROM
THE LEGISLATURE.
FOR THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT'S
BEEN PUT ASIDE THESE RESERVES
AND I PRAISE HIM.
I AND YOU.
AND THE AND THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE BECAUSE NO ONE COULD
HAVE IMAGINED THAT WE'D BE
HAVING THIS CONVERSATION TODAY.
IN TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN.
NOBODY.
SO I THAT'S A LOT OF FISCAL
DISCIPLINE AND IT REALLY HE
CAN'T SAY ENOUGH HONESTLY ABOUT.
THAT WE'VE BEEN HAVING THIS
CONVERSATION SO ENORMOUS PRAISE.
.
THE SECOND. COMMENT IS THAT I I
I WAS VERY FRUSTRATED WITH THE
PROPOSAL TO MOVE MONEY.
VERY UP TO AT THE BORROWING
SCHEME THAT ONE AND TO CALPERS.
HERE
I'M NOT FOR THAT MOTIVATION
BEHIND IT BECAUSE IT'S A VERY
GOOD MOTIVATION.
BEHIND THE THE SPEED AND THE
LACK OF ANALYSIS THAT WENT INTO
THAT.
CHOICE THAT WAS PRESENTED AFTER
THE MAY REVISE.
AND WITH A ACKNOWLEDGEMENT BY
FINANCE.
THAT THE AT THAT THE SCENARIOS
RUNNING THE SCENARIOS ON THAT
THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT.
THAT THAT LOAN WOULD NOT EVEN BE
AVAILABLE TILL THE FALL. YET
THEY WANTED SCISSION.
WITHIN A MATTER OF WEEKS AND I
OBJECTED THEN EVEN THOUGH I FELT
THE MOTIVATION WAS ALL CORRECT
AND AS YOU MAY KNOW.
THAT WHEN THOSE SCENARIOS WHERE
RUN. THE ASSUMPTIONS THAT WERE
IN THAT THEY BELIEVE WERE IN
PLAY.
OR THEY PUT A A IN THAT IN THE
IN THE PROPOSITION ABOUT WHY
THIS IS A GOOD IDEA BECAUSE IT
WAS NO DOWNSIDE.
THAT IN IN IN IN FACT UNDER.
SCENARIOS THAT WERE RYAN SHOWED
THAT THERE WAS A SUBSTANTIAL
DOWNSIDE.
IN LOSING A LOT OF THAT MONEY.
AND THAT LEFT I THINK ME
FRUSTRATED THAT.
THAT WE HAD GONE AHEAD WITH IT
WITHOUT REALLY TAKING THE TIME
TO UNDERSTAND.
NOT TO SAY THAT.
TRYING TO BAILOUT CALPERS ISN'T
A GOOD THING BECAUSE WE DO HAVE
TO FIND WAYS TO DO THAT BUT.
IT DOES REQUIRE. GIVING US THE
LEGISLATURE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
OUR FULL ANALYSIS AND HAVE YOUR
FULL AND HOUSES.
SO AND AND I I THINK THAT THAT
UNFORTUNATELY YOU KNOW CREATES A
CREDIBILITY PROBLEM WHICH NO ONE
LIKES IT
SEE AND A HALF AND HOUR.
I HOPE THAT.
AS WE WORK THROUGH THESE ISSUES
THAT WE WANT CERTAINLY REPEAT
THAT.
BUT I DO THINK THIS IS A GREAT.
CONVERSATION TO HAVE AND.
.
I THINK THAT TIME.
WE WE NEED TO OUR.
LOOK AT ALL THESE ALTERNATIVES
THAT HAVE BEEN LAID OUT I WOULD
BE INTERESTED IN KNOWING.
IT CONFUSES ME IN THIS SAID THE
LA AS REVIEW THAT ON THIS ONE
TIME SPENDING.
LINE ITEM.
SHOWS THAT UNDER A MILD
RECESSION WE DON'T NEED TO
REDUCE ON TIME SPENDING THAT
UNDER MODERATE SESSION WE DO IT
AT THAT DEBT FOR THE FIVE
MILLION UP BILLION DOLLAR LEVEL.
I'D LIKE TO KNOW IN OUR CURRENT
BUDGET TODAY. THAT WERE AYE THAT
WERE EN AND THE CURRENT BUDGET
THAT'S BEING PROPOSED WERE AWARE
IT WHERE IS THE ONE TIME MONEY
WHAT IS THAT NUMBER.
WHAT WHAT IS THAT TOTAL NUMBER
DO WE KNOW?
I DON'T HAVE THAT NUMBER OFF THE
TOP OF MY HEAD THAT I'D BE HAPPY
TO WORK WITH YOUR STAFF TO GET
IT YOU KNOW OKAY BECAUSE
OBVIOUSLY THE GOVERNOR'S
SENSITIVE TO THIS WHICH IS WHY
IS PROPOSING A LOT OF ONE TIME
SPENDING. RIGHT EVEN IN THE
UNDER THAT PROP NINETY EIGHT
CAT.
OPPOSING ONE TIME SPENDING.
WHICH I KNOW THAT.
I AND SOME OF MY COLLEAGUES HAVE
SOME SUGGESTIONS ABOUT.
BUT IT WOULD BE GOOD TO KNOW
THAT IT AND AND CUMULATIVE WAY
BECAUSE THAT REALLY IS THE IS
ANOTHER SAVINGS ACCOUNT RIGHT
THAT WE SHOULD BE TAKING INTO
ACCOUNT AND TO THE TERMS OF
CHOICES THAT WE MAKE.
YOU WOULD THAT THE LA WOULD SAY
LET'S KEEP DOING THAT BECAUSE
THAT IS A WAY OF.
OF NOT DIG INTO THIS ISSUE OF
RESERVES RIGHT.
I'M AND I'M NOT REALLY SURE
REALLY WHAT THAT IS.
BUT I HOPE WE CAN CONTINUE THIS
CONVERSATION AND I HOPE THAT WE
CAN FLESH OUT IN EVEN GREATER
DETAIL. HOW THESE CHOICES MIGHT
BENEFIT US UNDER VARIOUS
SCENARIOS?
THAT.
SO I I JUST WANT TO REVISIT THIS
I HAVE SO. PROP TWO AS I
UNDERSTAND IT.
TAKES ONE POINT FIVE PERCENT OF
GENERAL REVENUES.
SINCE THE BSA.
THE BSA'S CAPPED AT TEN PERCENT
OF
GENERAL FUND SO AS A GENERAL
FUND GROWS.
YOU'RE YOU'RE RAINY DAY FUND
YOUR PSA IS GOING TO MATCH GROW
GROW ON THE NET.
WHAT SO WHAT WE'VE DONE BY THIS
PROPOSAL IS WE'VE FILLED UP OUR
BSA HAD OUR TEN PERCENT?
SO IF THE GENERAL FUND GROWS.
WE'LL TAKE A LITTLE BIT OF THAT
ONE POINT FIVE PERCENT AND WILL
PLUG IT IN.
FILL UP A LITTLE BIT MORE THE
BSA TO THE CAP RIGHT.
IT THEN ANYTHING ELSE.
THE REST OF THE ONE POINT FIVE
PERCENT.
GOES TO INFRASTRUCTURE.
RIGHT UNFORTUNATES A LITTLE MORE
COMPLICATED.
THAT THE THE ONE IN A HALF GETS
FIXED OUT EACH BUDGET ACT.
SO THE THE TAX PROCEEDS IN THE
EXCESS CAPITAL GAINS THAT'S
NEEDED THAT'S THE PORTION THAT.
I'M YOUR ONE HAVE KINDA STAYS
FIXED IN YOUR TRIP YEARS AND THE
REST OF THE THE DEPOSIT.
FLUCTUATE SO YOU TELL ME IT IT
HAS A POTENTIAL BEEN MORE.
YES OKAY.
NOT LESS.
IT COULD BE EITHER.
CAN BE A.
MY POINT IS SO LET'S SAVE WERE
CAPPED AT THE BSA.
OKAY AND NEXT YEAR IS A GOOD
YEAR.
AND THE ONE AFTER THAT IS A GOOD
YEAR.
BUT.
THE GOVERNOR AT THE TIME IS THE
GREAT IS THE GREAT
PROGNOSTICATOR.
AND FORESEES A HUGE CLIFF.
IN YEAR THREE.
UNDER THIS WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO
TAKE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF
MONEY.
AND DIRECT EVERY YEAR ONCE WE
HIT THE CAP AS ADJUSTED.
TO INFRASTRUCTURE.
AS OPPOSED TO PUTTING THAT IN A.
SAVINGS ACCOUNT.
A FURTHER SAVE FOR THE CLIFF IN
MY RIGHT.
I THINK TO THE EXTENT OR IF THE.
AND I'M.
RIGHT TRYING TO BUILD A
HYPOTHESIS SO IF THE FUTURE
BUDGET DEVELOPMENT IS PROJECTING
ABOUT DEFICIT A SIGNIFICANT
DEFICIT THERE WOULD LIKELY BE
THAT EVALUATION OF THE EMERGENCY
AT THE FISCAL EMERGENCY. AND
WHETHER YOU COULD WITHDRAW FUNDS
FROM THE BSA.
SO I I DON'T KNOW THAT I AM A
FROM WHATEVER LAUNCHES A WHOLE
MECHANISM TO DO THAT WITHIN YES
THAT I DON'T COMPLETELY RECALL
BUT I KNEW AT THE TIME.
BUT ASIDE FROM THAT WHOLE
MECHANISM ABOUT DECLARING THAT
THE WORLD IS ON FIRE AND IT'S A
FISCAL EMERGENCY.
WE HAVE TO PUT THE MONEY IN
INFRASTRUCTURE AND NOT IN A
SAVINGS ACCOUNT KNOWING THAT I'M
HEADING TO THE CLIFF.
RIGHT.
IT'S MORE IF YOU'RE A.
I THINK IT DEPENDS ON THE THE
VARIABLES THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT
SAY THEY GET LIKE A LITTLE MORE
CLARIFICATION ON THE. SCENARIO
YOU'RE TRYING TO I DON'T WANT TO
PAY. SOURCES DID NOT A ONE OF
THE TO ON THE GROUND BUT.
.
AND YOU KNOW IT IS I THINK THEY
WE CAN ASK OUR STAFF TO FOLLOW
UP.
GET TO THE HEART OF YOUR
QUESTION.
STILL. I MEAN EXISTS IS THAT
IT'S NOT SHOWING THE MONEY GOES
TO INFRASTRUCTURE. SORT OF GHOST
INFRASTRUCTURE IT'S NOT GOING
INTO A SAVINGS ACCOUNT.
AND IT IT MAY IT MAY EITHER BE
ONE POINT FIVE PERCENT IT MAYBE
ONE PERCENT MAYBE IT'S A HALF A
PERCENT OR THREE PERCENT.
BUT BECAUSE OF THE WAY THE BSA
IS ORGANIZED ONCE YOU HIT THE
CAP S THE CAP IS ADJUSTED BY
GROWTH IN THE GENERAL FUND.
SOME PORTION OF THAT MONEY.
HAS TO GO INFRASTRUCTURE RIGHT.
TO THE EXTENT WHERE THE TEN
PERCENT.
OKAY I GIVE UP FILIAL. LET ME
PROVIDE A LITTLE BIT OF
CLARIFICATION AND I THINK
SENATOR YOU'RE EXACTLY RIGHT.
SO JUST VERY SIMPLIFIED.
AND AS THE RIVER OF I ANSWERED
NOT THERE OF COURSE A LOT OF
COMPLICATIONS HERE. BUT.
SO SUPPOSE THIS YEAR WE PUT THE
THREE POINT FIVE BILLION INTO
THE BSA. THEN NEXT YEAR UNDER
THE ADMINISTRATION'S MULTI YEAR
PRODUCTIONS ARE BE OF SAY ABOUT
OF ONE POINT FIVE BILLION DOLLAR
REQUIREMENTS. ABOUT FIVE HUNDRED
MILLION F THAT WE GO TO WHAT
YOU'RE SAYING TO TO GET BACK UP
TO THE TEN PERCENT IS A TEN
PERCENT IS MOVED. AND THE REST
THE BILLION DOLLARS ABOUT WE GO
TO INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING.
UNDER ALTERNATIVE SAY WE PUT THE
THREE POINT FIVE INTO A THIRD
RESERVE.
THEN THE ENTIRE ONE POINT FIVE
BILLION DOLLARS THAT WOULD BE
REQUIRED NEXT YEAR WOULD GO TO
THE BSA AND SO TOTAL RESERVES
WOULD BE HIGHER BY BILLION
DOLLARS. BUT INFRASTRUCTURE
SPENDING WOULD BE LOWER BY
BILLION DOLLARS
SO IF WE GIVE YOU KNOW IF YOU
SAW SAW SOMETHING HAPPENING ON
THE HORIZON YOU COULD PUT THE
MONEY.
INTO ANOTHER SAVINGS ACCOUNT
AND NOT.
PUT IT INTO INFRASTRUCTURE.
O. I SEE SO IF IF A RECESSION
AND SO RIGHT THAT ALL ASSUMES
THAT THE ECONOMY CONTINUES TO
GROW IF WE EXPERIENCE A
RECESSION THE NEXT YEAR. THEN AS
A DEPARTMENT FINANCES NOTING YOU
KNOW WE WOULD HAVE TO THAT THE
GOVERNOR WOULD DECLARE BUDGET
EMERGENCY AND THEN THE
LEGISLATURE WOULD BE ABLE TO
APPROPRIATE MONEY OUT OF THE
BSA.
AYE BY A TWO THIRDS VOTE I'M
SORRY BY A MAJORITY THAT EXCUSE
ME.
SO I'M IN TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
WHY WE'RE HAVING THIS DISCUSSION
BECAUSE IF IF I'M LISTENING TO
YOU IT DOESN'T MATTER.
SO WHERE WE PUT THE MONEY.
RIGHT.
WHAT MATTERS AND THAT?
IT MATTERS IN TERMS OF WHAT
HAPPENS IN TWENTY NINETEEN
SO IT IT FOR PURPOSES OF THIS
YEAR IF WE PUT THE MONEY. IN THE
BSA OR WE PUT IT SOMEWHERE ELSE
WE WOULD BE AT SIXTEEN BILLION
IN RESERVES
IN TWENTY NINETEEN TWENTY IF THE
ECONOMY COTINUES TO GROW. THAN
THAN THAT'S THE QUESTION DO YOU
WANNA HAVE FLEXIBILITY WITH YOUR
RESERVE OR DO YOU WANT TO GO
WHATEVER IT IS DO YOU WANT TO GO
TO INFRASTRUCTURE HAVE I MISSED
THE POINTERS ABOUT THAT THAT'S
EXACTLY RIGHT I THOUGHT SO.
BUT OCCASIONALLY I GET THE POINT
OKAY.
TO SAY I WOULD FORGET ABOUT THE
CLOTHES ON THIS. LITTLE ONLY IF
YOU WANT ME TO WELL NO I WAS
JUST THAT I DIDN'T KNOW IF THERE
WAS MORE I I JUST HAVE A
SUPPLEMENTAL.
WHICH IS THAT AND AND STAFF IT
AND AND YOU CERTAINLY MISTER
CHAIRMAN OF HEARD THIS FOR ME
BEFORE BUT. SO WHEN WE TALK
ABOUT THE AREA OF
INFRASTRUCTURE.
OKAY THAT I RECEIVE NOTED WE
HAVE A LOT OF DEMANDS.
BUT WE STILL I THINK ARE MISSING
THIS BIGGER PICTURE OF INFANTS
FOR.
ACROSS SILOS
THIS IS WHERE WEEK IT'S
DIFFICULT THAT ARE SUBCOMMITTEE.
THERE'S THE HIGHER EDUCATIONS.
PARKS
THE IS THE TRANSPORTATION.
SCHOOLS THERE IS A LOT OF THINGS
THERE'S THIS BUILDING.
AND AND SO YOU WHEN YOU HEARD MY
FRUSTRATION WE TALK ABOUT THIS
BUILDING THAT. WAS THE CONTEXT
FOR ALL THE INFRASTRUCTURE NEEDS
OF THE STATED Y. THE SKIT IS
HIGHER THAN OTHERS AND
I DO THINK WE HAVE TO GET OUT OF
OUR SIGHT LOW HERE. I KNOW ON
THE BROKEN RECORD I DON'T HOW.
TO
SMARTER PEOPLE.
BUT ANYWAY THAT'S MY
SUPPLEMENTAL.
WE LIKE YOUR RECORD.
ANYTHING ELSE BELIAU FINANCE
PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ANYTHING
CONGRESS IS A HOLD OPEN ITEM I'M
SURE.
WE MAY HAVE MORE CONVERSATION IN
THIS BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE BUT I'M
SURE THAT SOMEBODY IN BIG BUDGET
WILL HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT
THIS I LOOK FORWARD I HOPE I
DIDN'T.
BATTER YOU TOO MUCH I APPRECIATE
YOU'RE. TRYING TO INFORM ME ON
THE SUBJECT AND I LOOK FORWARD
TO FURTHER CONVERSATION THANK
YOU VERY VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU ALL YOU.
OKAY ITEM ZERO NINE FIVE ZERO
STATE TREASURER'S OFFICE.

ACTUALLY THE ONLY ISSUE
INFRASTRUCTURE SUPPORT AND
SUSTAINABILITY IT'S A HOLD OPEN
ITEM BUT.

HOPEFULLY YOU CAN EXPLAIN THIS
ONE TO ME.
WHEN WE GET TO IT IF YOU WOULD
IDENTIFY YOURSELVES AT THE TABLE

FINANCE YOU RETURN FOR MORE SIR
YOU GET A GOLD STAR.
HOW INTERESTING LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE?
WHO WANTS TO?
START CULTURE AND TRY TO EXPLAIN
THIS OKAY
WELL ACTUALLY REIMBURSEMENT
PROCESS TO ME THE. THE LAST
CONVERSATION WITH THE
SUPPLEMENTAL COMMENTS WAS A VERY
GOOD SEGUE OR A SET UP FOR OUR
MICROCOSMOF THIS REQUEST
BECAUSE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
INFRASTRUCTURE.
AND THAT THERE ARE LOTS OF I'M
NEEDS IN LOTS OF FUNDING
OPPORTUNITIES OR A LACK THEREOF
SOMETIMES FOR INFRASTRUCTURE
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT NETWORK
INFRASTRUCTURE. AT THE
TREASURER'S OFFICE THIS IS A
REQUEST FOR FOUR HUNDRED
THOUSAND. AND ONGOING IN GENERAL
FUND IN FIFTY THOUSAND ONE TIME
IN GENERAL FUND. THE NETWORK
INFRASTRUCTURE AT THE
TREASURER'S OFFICE.
AS THE FOUNDATION FOR.
ALL OF THE SERVICES THAT THE
TREASURER PROVIDES TWO HUNDRED
SIXTY STATE DEPARTMENTS.
TWENTY FOUR HUNDRED LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS FINANCIAL
INSTITUTIONS WERE THE AGENT ON
TWO HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS
PORTFOLIO AND BONDS AND AND THE
LIST GOES ON AND ON. AND.
IN THE PAST FOR THE PAST.
ELEVEN YEARS THE TREASURER'S
OFFICE HAS SOUGHT TO. FIND THE.
MANDATORY INFRASTRUCTURE
LICENSING HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE
JUST THE QUORUM AT THE
FOUNDATION OF THE TECHNOLOGY.
.
THROUGH SOME DEDICATED BUT
BUDGET BUT THERE'S ALWAYS AN
ANNUAL SHORTFALL SO WE'RE
SEEKING I'M RATHER THAN
REDIRECTING FROM OTHER BUDGETED
AREAS.
GETTING A SUSTAINABLE.
FUNDING STRUCTURE FOR
INFRASTRUCTURE.
CAN.
MAY I ASK SOME QUESTIONS SURE
PLEASE DO TO.
FOLLOWING THE LAST PRESENTATION
OF FURTHER ILLUSTRATE HOW LITTLE
I UNDERSTAND ABOUT ANY OF THIS.
MY UNDERSTANDING IS A TREASURE
PROVIDES IT SERVICES BOTH TO THE
TREASURER'S OPERATION
CURRENTLY AND THEN TO STATE
AGENCIES.
WE PRETTY THAT'S CORRECT WE DO
WE DO DESKTOP SUPPORT AND
SERVICE SUPPORT AN EMAIL ON FILE
APPLICATIONS FOR THE BOARDS
COMMISSIONS AND AUTHORITIES AND
THE TREASURER'S OFFICE. BUT WE
ALSO PROVIDE.
BANKING. AND LOTS IF IT
SERVICES WAY BEYOND THE
TREASURER'S OFFICE MAYBE THAT
EXPLAINS IT BECAUSE THAT WHEN I
WAS LOOKING AS GOOD FOR.
BUDGET IS IN FISCAL YEAR
BUDGETS.
AND THE MATTER FUNDS REDIRECTED.
OF FROM OTHER ACCOUNTS INSIDE
THE TREASURER'S OFFICE TO
FOURTH THIS IT FUNCTION.
IT RANGES ANYWHERE FROM A
HUNDRED AND FROM.
THE SOMETHING OWN UP TO.
THREE FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS REDIRECTED TO SORT OF
MAKE EVERYTHING BALLOTS OUT.
CORRECT ME AND A LOT OF WHAT YOU
DO IS.
ON A REIMBURSEMENT BASIS I
ASSUME FROM STATE AGENCIES
BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS.
IT ISIN THIS AREA THAT'S
CORRECT AND I WAS TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND WHY.
.
THERE WAS A A REDIRECTION.
YEAR OVER YEAR.
AND AND MAYBE I DON'T UNDERSTAND
I OF THE BUDGETING PIECE OR HOW
THE TRENTON OPERATES AND I WAS
TRYING TO.
FIGURE OUT MYSELF.
IS IT WAS IT A FAILURE NOT A
FAILURE BUT.
WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT.
ANY OF FAILURE A GUEST TO
CHARGE ENOUGH TO THE OTHER STATE
AGENCIES
BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
TO GET.
TING A REIMBURSEMENT FOR.
EQUIPMENT UP UPGRADES LICENSE
AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
OR WAS IT A VARIATION INSIDE THE
OFFICE OF THE TREASURE WITH
RESPECT TO WHAT YOU DO.
IT'S ORGANIC TO YOUR OWN
OPERATIONS.
OR SOMETHING ELSE IS THAT EFFORT
BECAUSE THAT IS A GOOD QUESTION
YES IT'S A FAIR QUESTION. I'M
GONNA LET BECKY ARE BUDGET.
RECTOR ANSWER THAT QUESTION AND
WATCH ME AND MY EYES ROLL. YEAH
DEFINITELY A VERY RIDER FROM.
OKAY SO I'M BASICALLY
THE TREASURER'S OFFICE IS MADE
UP OF THREE FUNDING SOURCES.
REIMBURSEMENTS AND THAT'S AN
ASSORTMENT OF REIMBURSEMENTS
REPLIED AGENCIES AND A BOX
INTERESTS ABROAD PROCEEDS.
EVERY DIVISION HAS A SOURCE OF
REIMBURSEMENTS.
SO THEY MAKE UPS ABOUT SEVENTY
FIVE PERCENT OF OUR BUDGET
AND THEN.
FIFTEEN PERCENT OF OUR BUDGET IS
GENERAL FUND.
AND THEN THE REMAINING.
TEN PERCENT WOULD BE ARE SUBTLE
SERVICE COST RECOVERY FUND WHICH
IS FUNDS THAT COME IN FOR
CENTRAL SERVICE AGENCY SERVICES
THAT ARE PROVIDED AND DIVVIED UP
THROUGH A PRO RATA.
SO WE GET A PORTION OF THAT
BECAUSE WE PROVIDING BANKING
SERVICES TO THE STATE SO THOSE
ARE THREE FUNDS.
SO I TIAS CONSIDERED AN OVERHEAD
COST
SO ALL OF ITS MONEY.
ALL THOSE CLUSTER THEN.
DIVIDED INTO THE DIFFERENT
UNITS.
BUT WHICH THE UC FOR THE
DIFFERENT PROGRAMS THE DEBATE
PROGRAM DIVISIONS AND SO THEY
ALL GET A A SHARE OF THAT COST
SO IT'S AN INDIRECT CHARGE.
SO WHEN MONEY IS BEING
REDIRECTED.
BASICALLY.
THERE DEEP I UNIT WITH THE
INFRASTRUCTURE BUDGET HAS.
HAS SUCCEEDED IS EXCEEDING ITS
BUDGET AND IF.
AS MOST PARTNERS HAVE SOME
SALARY SAVINGS AND DIFFERENT
TYPES OF SAVINGS AT THE END OF
THE YEAR NOT USING THEIR ALL
THEIR BUDGET.
IF THERE'S PURCHASE THAT IS
NECESSARY WE MAKE I THROUGH
THOSE. SO LESS
THE SO IT'S THE INTERNAL
OPERATING YEAH HER MISTER
DIVISIONS OF THE TRACK OF THE
TRAIL OF THE TREASURES ON.
OFFICE THEN YOU HAVE.
FOR WHATEVER REASON SPENT MORE.
TAKEN MORE RESOURCES
IN THE I. T. SIZED AND WAS ON
THE LINE ITEM BUDGET FOR THE
CURRENT TO SIMPLY REDIRECTED
FUNDS TO COVER THAT. STAFF
SAVINGS OR WHATEVER AND IT'S
IT'S INTERNAL WITH THE INTERNAL
OPERATION. NOT THE FAILURE TO
ASSESS THE APPROPRIATE AMOUNT OF
REIMBURSEMENT CHARGE AGAINST
ACCORDING A STATE TO BEIJING SEE
OR OF SERIES OF BOARDS AND
COMMISSIONS.
GOT IT.
OKAY THANK YOU.
SEC. PROBLEM AS. SO AND THE
REASON WE'RE REQUESTING GENERAL
FUND IF THE IT DIVISION. AND
OVER THE PAST THREE YEARS HAS
GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY I THINK
WE'VE BEEN BEFORE YOU. COUPLE
YEARS IN A ROW AND THOSE
EXPENSES WERE PRIMARILY FUNDED.
THE ADDITION OF ELEVEN STAFF
PRIMARILY FUNDED BY.
OUR BCAAS BOARDS COMMISSIONS AND
AUTHORITIES.
AND THE DECISION TO DO THAT WAS
MADE.
BECAUSE OF THE TIME THE NEW
ADMINISTRATION CAME IN.
THE S T. O. DIVISIONS WERE
PAYING EIGHTY EIGHT PERCENT OF I
TEASE BUDGET AND THE BOARDS
COMMISSIONS AND AUTHORITIES ARE
ONLY PAYING TWELVE SO WE WANTED
TO BRING SOME PARITY.
TO THOSE COST SO THEY PICKED UP
THE NEW COSTS IN OUR ROUGHLY.
THIRTY FOUR AND SIXTY SIX WHICH
IS ABOUT RIGHT FOR THE SERVICES
BECAUSE WERE A SIXTY FORTY KEY
WHY SPLIT WITH THE BOARDS.
BUT THE BOARD STILL HAVE TO PAY
FOR THEIR COMPUTERS.
PRINTERS WALL OUR INFRASTRUCTURE
DOLLARS IN S. TEO DO YOU PAY FOR
THE SDO STAFF SO THAT'S WHY WE
FEEL LIKE SIXTIES
THIRTY FOUR IS A GOOD SPLIT. BUT
I KNOW IT'S BEEN SUGGESTED THAT
WE SHOULD GO TO THE BOARDS.
YOU NOTE PICK UP PART OF THIS AS
WELL BUT WE'RE JUST.
AND I AND I AM SAYING THAT
THEY'RE AT THEIR CAPACITY
BECAUSE WE HAVE FOURTEEN BOARDS
COMMISSIONS AND AUTHORITIES.
BUT TWO OF THOSE ARE DORMANT
ONE OF THOSE IS HAS A VERY LOW
FUND BALANCE AND IS. THERE'S
ACTUALLY LEGISLATION TO MERGE TO
BOARDS TOGETHER WE HAVE THREE
BOARDS THAT ARE. BASICALLY
DEFICIT SPENDING.
OTHERS THAT ARE SORT OF BREAKING
EVEN WITH THEIR EXPENDITURES AND
I THINK IT'S THREE THAT ARE
BREAKING EVEN WITH EXPENDITURES
AND. REVENUES SO IT'S A LITTLE
PROBLEMATIC TO PUT MORE ON TO
THEM SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE LOOKING
TO THE GENERAL FUND BECAUSE IT
MAKES SENSE IN THAT WE PROVIDE
SO MANY SERVICES TO SO MANY
STATE AGENCIES.
AND JUST YOU KNOW JUST GIVE YOU
A LITTLE HISTORY ONE TIME WE
WERE FUNDED WITH FORTY SIX
PERCENT GENERAL FUND WERE AT
FOURTEEN NOW.
CHAU.
IS TRYING TO.
YEAH A LITTLE BIT WE'VE DONE THE
SAME THING TO YOU THAT WE DO THE
OTHER SAID HER WHOLE.
YEAH I GET.
FINANCE.
WE SUPPORT THE PROPOSAL.
WE RECOGNIZE THAT THE
DEPARTMENT IS TRYING TO.
PROVIDE LARA BALLOTS THEIR IT
FUNDING STRUCTURE.
LEO.
TELL I AS WAS ALLUDED TO YOU
WERE RECOMMENDING.
I CHANGE AND WHERE THE FUNDING
SOURCE COMES FROM SO NOT TAKING
ISSUE WITH THE PROPOSED
ACTIVITIES ARE THERE
DOCUMENTATION AMOUNT.
BUT WE ARE RECOMMENDING THAT
INSTEAD OF FUNDING IS ENTIRELY
FROM THE GENERAL FUND THAT THE
PROPOSAL BE FUNDED. OF FROM THE
VARIOUS FUND SOURCES THAT
SUPPORT AS HE ON THE BOARDS
COMMISSIONS AND AUTHORITIES THE
RATIONALE BEING THAT.
ALL THOSE ENTITIES TO BENEFIT
FROM THE SERVICES THAT ARE
PROVIDED AS WAS DISCUSSED BEST
HARDWARE SOFTWARE IN MICROSOFT
OFFICE AND.
AS WELL AS THE DATA AND
GOVERNMENT TRANSPARENCY
SUBSCRIPTION IS SORT OF THAT IT
SERVICES THAT ARE NEEDED.
AND REQUESTED AS PART OF THIS
PROPOSAL.
AND WE THINK THAT THAT'S.
YOU KNOW THAT IN GENERAL IT
SUPPORTER IS.
USUALLY PAID FOR GENERALLY BY.
YOU KNOW THOSE THOSE SOURCES
REALLY GETS OUT THERE ISN'T A
STRONG RATIONALE FOR THE GENERAL
FUND SPECIFICALLY.
TO.
TO COVER THIS
PROPOSAL UP RATHER THAN AS OTHER
FUNDING SOURCES WOULD YOU DO IT
ON THE SIXTY SIX THIRTY FOUR
SPLIT OR. ARE YOU SAYING THE
ENTIRE.
FOUR HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND
GENERAL FUND IN EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN SHOULD
PASSED ON TO THE AGENCIES KNOW
NOTHING HIGH WOULD BE SPLIT
BASED ON BASICALLY THAT THAT.
THE EXISTING SATISFIED OF WHAT
THOSE AND.
.
THE BENEFITS ESSENTIALLY THAT
THOSE BOARDS COMMISSIONS AND
AUTHORITIES AS WELL THAT YOU ARE
GETTING SO THERE WOULD BE SOME
THAT WOULD BE YOU KNOW. WOULD BE
REIMBURSEMENTS FROM WEST YEAH
OWES SOMEONE THAT WOULD BE
GENERAL FUND SOME THAT WOULD BE
MADE OF SPECIAL FUNDS THAT
SUPPORT THE PORTS MISSIONS THAT
ORTIZ. AND THE EXACT FUNDING
NUMBERS.
I DON'T HAVE RIGHT HERE WITH ME
BUT I WOULD BE SOME MIX OF THAT
SOURCES.
WELL THIS IS A.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS.
OF THIS IS A HOLD OPEN ITEM I
ASSUME SO THAT EVERYBODY CAN
CONTINUE TO HAVE A CONVERSATION
TRY TO COME TOGETHER PROBABLY
FOR SOME OTHER REASON.
WE WILL BE REVISITING THIS.
BEFORE WE CLOSE OUT THE.
SUBCOMMITTEE PROCESS SO.
BE BRIEF VISITING WITH A WITH A
VOTE SO.
YOU NEED TO COME BACK BUT I
APPRECIATE YOUR HELP AND THANK
YOU FOR.
HELPING TO INFORM ME.
BUT I THINK ISSUE FINANCE WHICH
IS SOMETIMES DIFFICULT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THAT'S.
I THINK THAT CONCLUDES THE
BUSINESS FOR.
SUBCOMMITTEE FOUR FOUR TODAY
UNLESS I HEAR TO THE COUNTRY AND
SEEING NO ONE COMING FORWARD
THIS SUB COMMITTEE IS ADJOURNED
