SECRETARY OF STATE HERE'S SO I'M
GOING TO SKIP OVER THE VOTE ONLY
MATTERS RIGHT NOW AND MOVE
DIRECTLY TO. ITEMS ZERO EIGHT
NINE ZERO SECRETARY OF STATE.
AND AS.
MISTER SECRETARY JOINING US
LIVE SO CALDERON ESTABLISHED
QUORUM.
SENATE ROTH HERE FEATHER GLAZER.
SENATOR WILL CLEAR.
SECRETARY THANK YOU FOR JOINING
US.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
.
WE HAVE BEEN MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE.
I YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO.
.
I SPEAK ON TODAY'S AGENDA I'M
HERE IN SUPPORT OF THE BUDGET
ITEM WHICH PROVIDES.
ONE HUNDRED AND THIRTY FOUR
POINT THREE MILLION DOLLARS FOR
THE REPLACEMENT OF VOTING
SYSTEMS FOR COUNTIES.
I'VE THE BUDGET ALLOCATION IS
NOT ONLY THE CENTRAL.
BUT IT IS TIMELY.
THE TIME INVESTMENT IN OUR
DEMOCRACY.
AGING VOTING SYSTEMS ARE ONE OF
THE GREATEST THREATS TO THE
INTEGRITY OF OUR ELECTIONS.
MINUTE BELIEVE IS A SOME OF
YOUR BACKGROUND LOS WILL POINT
OUT IT'S BEEN OVER FIFTEEN YEARS
SINCE CONGRESS APPROVED
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING FOR VOTING
SYSTEMS TO HELP IMPROVE ELECTION
ADMINISTRATION.
WE HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY TO
MODERNIZE OUR VOTING EQUIPMENT
TO ENSURE. THE
CURATOR OF OUR ELECTIONS AS
ELECTION SECURITY HAS ALSO
RECENTLY BEEN
BROUGHT BACK INTO THE SPOTLIGHT.
BUT WE ALSO HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO SIMULTANEOUSLY
EXPAND OF VOTING OPPORTUNITIES.
AND TO IMPROVE
ABOUT DISABILITY AND LANGUAGE
ACCESS TO THE VOTING PROCESS.
BY QUOTING THIS ITEM IN THE
BUDGET.
THE GOVERNOR AND THE LEGISLATURE
WILL CLEARLY ILLUSTRATE THEIR
UNDERSTANDING THAT ON INVESTMENT
IN VOTING SYSTEMS IS AN
INVESTMENT IN THE VOTER
EXPERIENCE AND THE HEALTH OF OUR
DEMOCRACY.
THE INVESTMENT WILL HELP ENSURE
THE SECURITY OF OUR ELECTIONS.
FROM HAVING UNAUTHORIZED ENTRY
INTO OUR ELECTION SYSTEM
SOMETHING THAT'S
OF SIGNIFICANT CONCERN TO ANY
IN OUR COUNTRY. TODAY OF THE
CONCERNED TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE
SAFE AND SECURE VOTING SYSTEMS
HOWEVER. IS NOTHING NEW.
EVEN PRIOR TO THE TWO THOUSAND
SIX
ELECTION.
WE IMPLEMENTED MANY SAFEGUARDS
FOR VOTING SYSTEMS TO ASSURE
VOTERS THAT THEIR BALLOTS ARE
COUNTED ACCURATELY. AND
RELIABLY.
CALIFORNIA HAS ONE OF THE MOST
STRENUOUS VOTING SYSTEM TESTING
AND CERTIFICATION
PROGRAMS IN THE COUNTRY.
IN ADDITION TO THE
CERTIFICATION AND TESTING AT THE
STATE LEVEL CALIFORNIA COUNTIES
ARE REQUIRED TO PERFORM LOGIC
AND ACCURACY TESTING OF THEIR
VOTING SYSTEMS.
FOR EACH
ELECTION.
CALIFORNIANS ARE CAST THEIR
VOTES PRIMARILY ON PAPER BALLOTS
YOU
THE VAST MAJORITY OF
CALIFORNIANS USE
PAPER BALLOTS THE LIMITED OTING
SYSTEMS USED IN CALIFORNIA THAT
OFFER DIRECT RECORDED
ELECTRONIC SYSTEM.
IS IT MAINLY FOR EXCESS ABILITY
OPTIONS FOR VOTERS WITH
DISABILITIES AND EVEN THEN STATE
LAW REQUIRES A VOTER VERIFIED
PAPER RECORD. FOR PURPOSES OF
AUDITS RECOUNTS AND MANUAL
TALLIES.
AND OF COURSE AFTER EVERY
ELECTION I COUNTY ELECTIONS
OFFICIALS ARE REQUIRED TO
CONDUCT A MANUAL TALLY. OF ONE
PERCENT OF THE PRECINCTS IS PART
OF THE OFFICIAL CANVASS OF
ELECTION RESULTS.
AS A SAFEGUARD TO ENSURE THE
ACCURACY AND THE INTEGRITY
OF THE RESULTS.
I THIS FUNDING ALLOCATION WILL
ALLOW FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF.
SYSTEMS
THAT PROVED WILL PROVIDE FOR
INCREASED OPPORTUNITIES TO VOTE
A AS WE IMPLEMENT THE VOTERS
TWICE ACT OF THE FIRST FIVE
COUNTIES IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN MANY
MORE STARTING IN TWENTY TWENTY.
SO CONSEQUENTLY WITH ALL THE
SAFEGUARDS WE NEED NEW VOTING
SYSTEM.
AND WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO ENSURE
THE COUNTIES HAVE THE RESOURCES
WE NEED WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF
STATE FUNDING.
AS YOU'RE LIKELY AWARE OF MOST
COUNTY ELECTIONS OFFICIALS DO
NOT CURRENTLY RECEIVE STATE OR
FEDERAL FUNDING
AND THE NEED TO PROVIDE FUNDING
FOR COUNTY ELECTIONS OFFICIALS
IS MOST EVIDENT. IN OUR AGING
AND OUT.
DATED VOTING INFRASTRUCTURE.
A AM COUNTIES THROUGHOUT THE
STATE VOTING SYSTEMS ARE AT OR
NEAR LIFE EXPECTANCY.
A DO DILIGENCE OF COUNTY
OFFICIALS A AND OUR OFFICES HELP
MITIGATE RISK FOR THE TWO
THOUSAND EIGHTEEN ELECTIONS
WHICH ARE UPON US.
WE CANNOT TAKE THE LONGEVITY OF
OUR SYSTEMS FOR GRANTED. ADDS
ONE OFF THE FOR THE RECORD A
COUPLE OF EXAMPLES OF WHAT WE
MEAN.
WHEN SYSTEMS ARE AT OR NEAR LIFE
EXPECTANCY.
AND CERTAIN PARTS OF THE STATE
COUNTY VOTING MACHINES ARE
FALLING APART INVENTORS NO
LONGER MAKE SPARE PARTS.
AND COUNTIES ARE FORCED TO TURN
TO EBAY.
FOR SPARE PARTS FOR MAINTENANCE
AND UPKEEP OF THEIR EQUIPMENT.
THERE ARE SOME COUNTIES IN
CALIFORNIA WHO'S OPERATING
SYSTEMS ARE SO OLD. VENDORS NO
LONGER PROVIDE TECH SUPPORT.
ABOUT WHICH MEANS THEY CANNOT BE
PATCHED OR UPDATED.
TO MEET THE LATEST SECURITY
SOFTWARE A REVISED FOR DC QUIT
MEANT.
AND MEMBERS.
LET ME REMIND US ALL OF THE TWO
THOUSAND PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
THE IMAGES FROM THE STATE OF
FLORIDA YOU KNOW BUTTERFLY
BALLOTS HANGING CHADS.
.
IT'S BEEN DOCUMENTED THAT EATING
VOTING SYSTEM IN FLORIDA AT THE
TIME CONTRIBUTED.
TO THAT CRISIS
IN RESPONSE CONGRESS ACTED.
AND THE ACTIVE ON A BIPARTISAN
BASIS
WHEN THEY PASSED THE HELP
AMERICA VOTE ACT.
PROVIDED FUNDING TO MODERNIZE
SYSTEMS IN ALL FIFTY STATES.
BUT THAT WAS MORE THAN THIRTEEN
YEARS AGO.
IT SEEMS THAT WE'RE BACK TO
WHERE WE STARTED.
WITH VOTING SYSTEMS THAT ARE
RISK OF FAILING.
I COUNTIES ALONE CANNOT BEAR THE
FINANCIAL BURDEN TO PURCHASE TO.
IS THAT THEY NEED.
THEY NEED STATE HELP
THEY NEED OUR HELP.
IN THIS YEAR'S PROPOSAL HUNDRED
THIRTY FOUR MILLION DOLLARS IS A
GREAT START.
INVESTING IN YOUR BODY EQUIPMENT
IS THE MOST IMMEDIATE MADE
SECURE OUR ELECTIONS.
SO I ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT OF
THIS INVESTMENT.
TWO OF.
APPEAL FOR THE ONGOING SUPPORT
OF STATE AND LOCAL ELECTIONS
OFFICIALS
IN BUDGET YEARS GOING FORWARD.
HAVE TO ANSWER THE QUESTION.
THANK YOUS
FINANCE
COME WITH.
NO WAY OUT.
COLLEAGUES IN QUESTION.
I'M.
THIS IS ON ISSUE NUMBER ONE
WE'RE TALKING VERY ISSUE NUMBER
ONE RIGHT NOW VOTING.
PLACEMENT.
I. WOULD LIKE TO AYE SHARE SOME
THOUGHTS APOLOGIZED EUROPEAN
LATE WE.
.
WE ARE A BELOVED STAFFER WHO.
PASSED AWAY AND THEY HAD IDEA.
THE MORAL RECEPTION FOR HIM.
JUST AFTER A FLOOR SESSION TODAY
AND I WANTED TO GREET THE FAMILY
MEMBERS THAT WERE THERE AND I
APOLOGIZE THE SECRETARY FOR
MISSING THE BEGINNING OF YOUR.
YOUR PRESENTATION.
I'M.
I AND I WANNA APPLAUDED AND AND
THANK YOU FOR YOUR LEADERSHIP IN
AND AND AND CONCERN FOR. OUR
AGING VOTER EQUIPMENT AND WE HAD
AN INTERESTING DEBATE ON THE
FLOOR TODAY.
ON THIS ISSUE OF FILE ELECTIONS
AND
BALLOTS IN INTEGRITY.
AND IT KIND IT.
DEGRADED TO SOME EXTENT.
.
BUT DOT AYE I LEFT THE I LEFT
THINKING ABOUT IT.
.
WITH THE VIEW THAT THIS IS SO
IMPORTANT TO OUR DEMOCRACY.
THAT HOW WE VOTE IN THE
INTEGRITY OF OUR.
OF OUR VOTE AND AND.
.
IT'S NOT INSIGNIFICANT THING
AND IT'S NOT. IT'S NOT SOMETHING
TO TOSS AROUND.
CAVALIERLY ISSUES SUCH AS FRAUD.
AND THE REST BUT.
I'M I'M STRUGGLING WITH THIS
PROPOSAL AND NOT BECAUSE I DON'T
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THE SYSTEMS ARE
A HAVE AGED OUT OF.
OTHER USEFUL LIFE AND WE HAVE TO
DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT IT'S NOT
THAT.
I IT'S THAT. WE ARE
TRANSITIONING TO TO A DIFFERENT
MODEL OF VOTING WHETHER IT'S THE
VOTE CENTERS.
BUT I I REALLY THINK THAT IF
YOU'RE LOOKING.
TEN YEARS INTO THE FUTURE THAT.
IT'S MUCH MORE LIKELY THAT WE
WON'T HAVE.
VOTE CENTERS MAYBE AT ALL THAT
THAT THAT WILL HAVE AN
IDENTIFICATION THAT WE CAN VOTE
ON THE CLOUD.
AND NOT BE DEPENDENT UPON
EQUIPMENT WHEREVER IT MIGHT
EXIST.
WHETHER IT'S IN THAT
NEIGHBORHOOD.
I JUST.
MULTI PURPOSE ROOM OR IN A VOTE
CENTER.
AND THAT'S WHAT I'M STRUGGLING
WITH HERE THAT.
THIS IS A THIS IS AN AMOUNT OF
MONEY THAT'S GOING TO GOING TO
QUIT MEANT THAT COULD HAVE A
USEFUL LIFE OF TWENTY OR THIRTY
YEARS.
AND YT THE LIKELIHOOD THAT
WE'LL BE USING IT TWENTY THIRTY
YEARS FROM NOW.
TO ME AT LEAST
SEEMS. LESS LIKELY
AND I LOVE IT THAT TO COME OUT
UPON THAT I'D ALSO LIKE TO HEAR
FROM THE ANALYSTS AND MAYBE
OTHERS.
AS TO WHAT WORK YOU KNOW WHAT
WHAT WHERE IS THIS GLANCE INTO
THE FUTURE.
REALLY GOING TO LEAD US IN TERMS
OF HOW WE ARE GOING TO VOTE
OBVIOUSLY IT'S ALL ABOUT. THAT
GETTING THE GREATEST
PARTICIPATION WE CAN IN OUR
ELECTIONS AND DOING IT WITH
INTEGRITY.
AND.
HONESTY THAT WHICH WE DEPEND
UPON I'D LOVE YOUR THOUGHTS ON
THAT.
SURE THINK I WOULD HAVE IS OKAY
IF I COULD ASK MY QUESTION
BECAUSE IT'S A IT'S ACTUALLY THE
COMPLETE OTHER TACT IN THAT HE
CAN JUST DO IT ALL IN ONE FELL
SWOOP IS THAT OKAY.
SO THIS IS BASICALLY FROM HOW I
READ IT ABOUT ONLY ONE HALF OF
WHAT'S REQUIRED. SO I'M CURIOUS
WHY WE'RE NOT ASKING FOR ALL OF
A BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE
PROBABLY RIGHT.
WE ALWAYS SAY EVERY VOTE COUNTS.
SO EVERYBODY SHOULD COUNTY
TWENTY WE NEED TO DO SO I MISSED
IT WHY WE'RE NOT DOING ALL OF
IT.
AND THEN THE SAME QUESTION IS.
AS WE WENT IT IS ALL GOING TO
COME ONLINE AT THE AT THE COUNTY
LEVEL EXOTIC INCORPORATED ALL
INTO ONE.
SO I BELIEVE VIA THE SHORT EASY
QUESTION IS WHY ASK FOR ALL OF
IT.
.
I BELIEVE THE PRIVATE OF OF THE
LEGISLATURE TO AMEND THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET NOT FEWER TO
AMEND THE FIGURE. NORRIS.
I WOULD NOT A REGISTERED LETTER
OF OPPOSITION.
WE DON'T KNOW.
ARE.
I I.
WHO WAS A MEMBER THE SENATE
WHAT THE PUNDITS HAVE I KNOW HOW
THE PROCESS WORKS A EIGHT EIGHT
LEAVE IT IN YOUR HANDS BUT TO AT
A MINIMAL ONE TO DEFEND THE
AMOUNT THAT IS IN THE BUDGET
WHICH?
AS PROPOSED BY THE GOVERNOR
REQUIRES A DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR
MATCH BY THE COUNT
SO FULLY LEVERAGE WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT TWO HUNDRED SIX.
MILLION DOLLARS WHICH AGAIN
DOESN'T COVER THAT THE ENTIRE
NEED I DON'T THINK THAT
SIGNIFICANT
STEPPED A IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION
AT THE RIGHT TIME BECAUSE
URGENCY IS ABSOLUTELY THEIR. AND
I THINK THAT'S PART OF WHAT
UNDERSCORES MY RESPONSE TO
SENATOR GLAZERS ARE ISSUES.
YOU KNOW I GET ASKED THE
QUESTION EVERY SINGLE DAY.
AND A RECALL OUR CONVERSATIONS
A FEW WEEKS AGO ABOUT.
ONLINE VOTING INTERNET BASED
VOTING IT CETERA.
.
THERE'S MANY BELIEVERS AT THAT
THEY WILL COME BUT WE'RE NOT
THERE YET.
AS SOON AS YOU STOP HERE FROM
ABOUT. HACKS THROUGH COMPROMISES
OF YOU KNOW YOU PICK THE
INCIDENT.
YOU KNOW TARGET HOME DEPOT SONY
STUDIOS.
ANTHEM BLUE CROSS THE IRS.
THE DNC.
ON AND ON AND ON A I DON'T
THINK WE WILL HAVE YOU DO
SECURITY NOR THE CONFIDENCE OF
TRUE. INTERNET BASE OR ONLINE
VOTING.
SO UNTIL THAT TIME COMES WE DO
EVERYTHING WE CAN.
TO ENSURE THAT THE SECURITY AND
THE INTEGRITY AND ACCESS TO THE
PROCESS.
SO THE FUNDAMENTAL REALITY AS
WE SIT HERE TODAY IS
WE HAVE EQUIPMENT AS I MENTIONED
TO GIVE SOME EXAMPLES THAT IS.
AT LIGHT AT ITS LIFE EXPECTANCY
AND AND PIECE OF EQUIPMENT THAT
ARE LITERALLY BEGINNING TO
PHYSICALLY FAIL.
BE.
.
IDENTIFICATION OF THE AGE OF
OUR EQUIPMENT AS.
SORT OF CRISIS MODE AND IN.
A URGENT ITEM TO ADDRESS IS NOT
A NEW.
THERE'S BEEN PREVIOUS
ACTUALLY BIPARTISAN RESPECTED
COMMISSIONS AND THE
INVESTIGATIONS AT THE AT THE.
FEDERAL LEVEL YOU KNOW EVEN
AFTER THE A TWO THOUSAND TWELVE
PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
NOT THE ELECTIONS IS
COMMISSION WITH THE
YOU.
.
ADMINISTRATION COMMISSION THE
BIPARTISAN OBAMA COMMITTEE
YOU WILL.
LAID OUT IN ITS RECOMMENDATIONS
AT THE AGE OF THE EQUIPMENT IS
SOMETHING THAT WE NEEDED TO BE
ADDRESSED.
IN AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
YOU KNOW BUT COUPLED WITH THAT
EVOLVING TECHNOLOGY AND EVOLVING
PRACTICE THAT CAN ONLY SHORT THE
SECURITY OF OUR ELECTIONS BUT
PROVIDE VOTER EXPERIENCE.
THAT IS MUCH IMPROVED
THROUGH CHOICES RIGHT THE
OPTIONS OF VOTING ANYWHERE IN
YOUR COUNTY.
MORE VOTE BY MAIL A LOT OF
THINGS THAT WE'RE DOING
CALIFORNIA READY BUT NOT
COMPLETELY THAT WAS PACKAGED
INTO THE VOTERS TWICE ACT.
WHICH.
AS WAS ADOPTED IN CALIFORNIA IS
AN OPTION FOR COUNTIES TO
TRANSITION FOURTEEN COUNTIES
ELIGIBLE THIS YEAR FIVE ACTUALLY
MAKING THE SWITCH.
I BELIEVE AND WE SEE THE
SUCCESS OF THE VOTERS CHOICE ACT
IN TERMS OF PARTICIPATION RATES.
EVEN MORE SO THAN MAYBE SOME
COST EFFICIENCIES TO BE
REALIZED.
A THAT WILL BE THE THE LAST
INCENTIVE NECESSARY TO THE FINAL
COUNTIES WHO.
ARE STILL WONDER WHETHER IT'S
THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
THE WAY YOU CAN IMPLEMENT VOTERS
CHOICE ACT BRINGS DOWN THE
DOLLAR FIGURE RIGHTS IT'S A LONG
WAY OF SAYING.
CAN.
MEET THE NEEDS OF COUNTY
ELECTIONS ADMITTED.
.
ADMINISTRATORS.
.
BY COURAGE IN THE VOTERS CHOICE
ACT OT JUST FOR THE TURNOUT
BENEFITS BUT FOR THE COST
EFFICIENCIES BENEFITS OF THAT
THIS.
BECAUSE YOU LITERALLY HAVE.
YOUR LOCATIONS FEWER BOOTS FEWER
EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEED TO
INVEST AND SO IT'S GOING TO MAKE
THE. PROPOSED DOLLAR FIGURES IT
BUDGET WITHOUT MUCH FURTHER AS
MORE COUNTIES
ABOUT MY BE TO VOTER CHOICE TECH
MATCHES AND TWENTY EIGHTEEN BUT
IN.
TOOK THAT YOU'RE QUITE WELL AND
SO IT TO THAT POINT YET MAYBE
OVER THERE IN A DECADE BUT WE
CAN'T AFFORD. TO WAIT TEN YEARS.
TO INVEST IN NEW EQUIPMENT
BECAUSE OF
THAT THAT THE PHYSICAL SECURITY
AS WELL AS A CYBER THREATS TO
OUR ELECTIONS.
TODAY.
AS WE INDUSTRY CHAIRMAN I FOLLOW
UP.
SO AS WE MAKE THE TRANSITION TO
VOTE BY MAIL.
.
I IS THIS EQUIPMENT THE SO
DEPENDENT UPON THAT THAT THAT.
DOT THAT THAT.
CONDUCT OF OUR ELECTIONS
WE IT I THINK THAT THE GENERAL
TREND IN TECHNOLOGY.
I KNOW FROM THE HARDWARE SIDE TO
THE SOFTWARE SIDE TO THE MIDDLE
WHERE SITE HAS BEEN UP.
.
WHAT WHERE IT'S A LOT MORE?
ADAPTABLE TO.
IT CHANGES AND UPGRADES
IMPROVEMENTS ALONG THE WAY I I.
I THINK TECHNOLOGY INVESTMENTS
TODAY ARE MUCH LESS WHERE OKAY
THIS IS THAT YOU'RE LOCKED IN
FOR THE NEXT TEN TWENTY YEARS
WAS NO WAY TO REALLY CHANGE IT
OR. A CUSTOMIZED BICU ON ITS
INITIAL APPLICATION.
ABOUT THE LOOK OF WHAT I'M
ASKING SECRETARY IS THAT.
THIS THIS INVESTMENT IS IT. IF
WE WHETHER WE HAVE A.
PRECINCT MODEL OR A THE ACE AND
VOTE CENTER MODEL OR A VOTE BY
MAIL MODEL DOES ANY OF THAT
CHANGE THE.
THAT TECHNOLOGY NEEDS THAT ARE
IDENTIFIED IN THIS BUDGET ITEM.
AT NIGHT THE THE THE COUNTY
OFFICIALS KNOW THE THE TO
SPECIFIC NEEDS FOR THE COUNTIES
IN THE TECHNOLOGY THAT WILL HELP
BOTH MEET THE. THOSE NEEDS
CURRENTLY AND AS THE OF ALL OKAY
ANSWER THAT'S BASED ON A PAPER
BALLOT MODEL YES THAT'S RIGHT AT
THE PEAK THE PAPER BALLOT
REQUIREMENT AND THE VOTER
VERIFIED PAPER. TRAIL
REQUIREMENT IS STATE LAW THAT
DOES NOT.
THAT HAS THROUGH CALIFORNIA'S
ELECTION SECURITY WELL FOR MORE
THAN A DECADE AND THAT'S NOT
GOING TO CHANGE ANY TYPES.
RIGHT AND ARE YOU AWARE OF ANY
OF THE LOADING. PROCEDURES THAT
ARE DONE ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD
THAT THAT USE THAT THEY.
A CLOUD HER.
THE INTERNET BASED FOR FOR THAT
THAT WORK.
I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY HOW
ESTONIA A EXPERIMENTED WITH
p
ONLINE ELECTIONS ARE INTERNET
BASED ELECTIONS BUT EVEN THAT
WAS SHOWN TO.
BUT NOT BE COMPLETELY SECURE US
I DON'T WORK WERE WELL AWARE OF
EFFORTS PILOTS AND OTHERWISE.
OR AROUND THE COUNTRY AND IT'S
USING AROUND THE WORLD.
AND NONE WITH THE.
CHARITY AND CONFIDENCE THAT I
BELIEVE WE NEED AND WE ALL WANT
CERTAINLY SO FOLKS CHURCH OVER
CAN I GETTING THERE BUT WE'RE
NOT THERE YET OKAY AND I AND I
GUESS THAT'S THE DILEMMA FOR ME
IS THAT. THIS HUNDRED AND THIRTY
FOUR MILLION COULD BE SPENT ON
SECURITY.
COULD A OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF
VOTING.
SYSTEMS THAT ARE MORE CLOUD
BASED ALSO AMEND
IT'S PUTTING A LOT OF MONEY INTO
SOMETHING THAT IT'S LIKE PUTTING
A ROOF ON YOUR HOUSE.
YOU SAY IS VERY IMPORTANT BUT
YOU KNOW THE OLD HOUSES GOING TO
BE TORN DOWN IN TEN YEARS WOULD
YOU PUT ON THE SAME ROOF.
AND I WOULD LIKE THE AIR FROM
THE ALICE BUT IF THERE'S FURTHER
FOLLOW UP WITH THE SECRETARY AND
ONE AND IF I WERE STILL IN
DROUGHT CONDITIONS BUT THE
LIKELIHOOD OF AT LEAST A COUPLE
RAIN STORMS OVER THE NEXT TEN
YEARS IS PRETTY GOOD.
YEAH SO I'M MISTER SECRETARY SO
WE DO THIS EXPENDITURE YOU
EXPECT THIS MONEY TO BE INVESTED
BEFORE THE TWENTY TWENTY CYCLE.
I BELIEVE SO.
AND I JUST GOT TO GET TOO
TECHNICAL HERE BUT THE WAY THESE
MONIES ARE DISTRIBUTED ON OUR A
REIMBURSEMENT BASIS.
SO WE'RE NOT JUST HANDING OUT
CHECKS TO COUNTIES IN CROSSING
THEIR FINGERS.
THE WAY THAT MONEY WILL BE
DISTRIBUTED IS AFTER THE
EXPENSES MADE COUNTIES APPLY FOR
REIMBURSEMENT.
SO MISTER SECRETARY AS I
UNDERSTAND IT THIS THAT WHATEVER
WE APPROPRIATE HERE'S BUT PER
THIS REQUEST IS IS NOT
SUFFICIENT TO.
UPGRADE EVERYBODY'S VOTING
EQUIPMENT IS THAT CORRECT.
TWO HUNDRED SIXTY EIGHT MILLION.
DO WE HAVE A FIGURE FOR THE.
IF WE DID EVERYTHING WE NEEDED
TO DO TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY HAS
UP TO DATE EQUIPMENT.
WELL THERE'S OUT OUR OUR BEST
GUESSTIMATE IS SOMEWHAT IN THE
FORM OF A OF A ASSEMBLY MEMBER
GONZALEZ IS PROPOSE BOND MEASURE
FROM LAST YEAR.
WE TOOK THE LEVEL OF HAVA
FUNDING
FROM THE EARLY TWO THOUSANDS
AND THE LEVEL OF THE VOTING
MODERNIZATION BONTA CALIFORNIA
APPROVED.
AT AROUND THE SAME TIME
COMBINED THAT THE JUST OF THE
FOR INFLATION AND THAT'S WHERE
WE HAD AN INITIAL FOUR HUNDRED
FIFTY MILLION DOLLAR FIGURE
PROPOSED.
IN THAT LEGISLATION.
IT KNOW CAN THAT FIGURE COME
DOWN AS MORE COUNTIES ADOPT THE
VOTERS CHOICE ACT AND MAKE THAT
TRANSITION.
ABSOLUTELY.
SO IT'S SOMEWHERE IN THAT
FIGURE A AND I RESPECT TO THE.
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE YOU'VE
ALSO TAKEN A COUPLE OF CRACKS
AT.
WELL SOME COUNTIES ARE MOVING
SOONER THAN OTHERS TO THE VOTERS
CHOICE ACT MODEL.
SOME COUNTIES HAVE SORT OF MORE
URGENCY IN TERMS OF.
THE NEED TO REPLACE EQUIPMENT
AND OTHERS CAN BE HOLD OUT FOR
OTHER CYCLE OR TO.
SO OVER THE COURSE OF A COUPLE
OF BUDGET YEARS I THINK WILL.
AT THIS RATE.
WE CAN HIT THAT THAT ENTIRE NAY
BUT WHO WANTED TO GET ALL IN ONE
FELL SWOOP.
CLOSE TO FOUR HUNDRED THINK
VIA THE RIGHT RIGHT
THANK YOU SEEN BEFORE I TURN IT
BACK TO SENATOR GLAZER. AND LIKE
TO GET A LITTLE MORE CLARITY
WITH RESPECT TO THE LA DOES
RECOMMENDATION AS IT IS DETAILED
IN OUR ANALYSIS TO.
DIRECTED DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS
BASED ON AND IMPLEMENTATION OF
THE VOTERS CENTER MODEL IN. AND
IT AND THE IMPLICATIONS OF THAT
WHICH IF IF THAT'S HOW WE MOVE
THE MONEY OUT THEN DOESN'T THAT.
PUT IT RISK SOME COUNTIES WITH
THE MOST ANTIQUATED AND OUTDATED
EQUIPMENT WHO MAY NOT BE MOVING
IN THAT DIRECTION FOR A VARIETY
OF REASONS AND PERHAPS WE SHOULD
MOVE SOME OF THIS MONEY.
THERE AS OPPOSED TO COUNTIES
THAT ARE MOVING TOWARD THE
VOTERS CENTER MODEL SO IF YOU
COULD PROVIDE SOME.
CLARITY I WILL KNOW THAT THE
STAFF RECOMMENDATION ON THIS
ITEM IS TO HOLD IT OPEN I ASSUME
FOR A COUPLE REASONS NOT THE
LEAST OF WHICH IS TO TRY TO PIN
DOWN EXACTLY WHAT NUMBER IT IS
WE'RE GOING TO LAND AT HERE.
GIVEN THE FACT THAT WHAT'S
REQUESTED ISN'T SUFFICIENT TO DO
THE JOB.
SO LA GO ABOUT THAT SHORT%
CAROLINE TO FROM LEGISLATING
AISLES ANALYST'SOFFICE SO OUR
RECOMMENDATION WAS PREDICATED.
UP PRIMARILY ON THE CONSTRAINTS
OF ONE THE AMOUNT OF FUNDING
PROPOSED IN THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET WHICH IS HALF OF THE
COST.
TO REPLACE VOTING EQUIPMENT
BASED LARGELY ON THE VOTE CENTER
MALL. OF OR EXCUSE ME THE VOTERS
CHOICE ACTS OF THE VOTE CENTER
MODEL ACROSS ALL COUNTIES.
INTO.
AN ASSUMPTION THAT TO THE
VOTERS CHOICE ACT IS THE
LEGISLATURE STATEMENT OF POLICY
OF WHERE WOULD LIKE TO SEE
COUNTIES MOVE IN THE FUTURE FOR.
OUR HOW VOTING IS IS CONDUCTED.
AND SO TO THE EXTENT THAT A THE
VOTERS TRANSECT IS THE
LEGISLATURE'S A PREFERENCE FOR
HOW COUNTIES CONDUCT.
THEIR VOTING OR CONDUCT OF
VOTING.
.
ALLOCATING THE FUNDS ACROSS
COUNTY IS BASED ON THOSE COSTS
WOULD NOT GIVE. A RELATIVE
ADVANTAGE TO COUNTY USED TO.
CHOOSE TO MAINTAIN THE POLLING
CENTER MODEL SO THAT IS TO SAY
IN MOST COUNTIES THE VOTES ON
OUR MODEL. IS LESS EXPENSIVE TO.
FIELD THEN THE POLLING.
CENTER MODEL.
IF.
UP FUNDING ASSEMBLY ALLOCATED
BASED ON WHAT COUNTIES CHOOSE TO
DO SOME COUNTIES WILL RECEIVE
MORE FUNDING SIMPLY BASED ON THE
TREES THEY MAKE ABOUT WHICH VOTE
CENTER ODD OR VOTE. VOTING MODEL
TO ADOPT
I AND SO OUR RECOMMENDATION WAS
WAS REALLY.
FOCUSED ON IF THE LEGISLATURE
WANTS TO ENCOURAGE THOUGH NOT
REQUIRE COUNTIES TO MOVE TO VOTE
CENTER MODEL.
ABUSING THEIR FUNDING ON A
ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE COST OF
THAT TYPE OF MODEL WOULD BE A
WAY TO HELP ENCOURAGE SOME
COUNTIES TO MOVE IN THAT
DIRECTION BUT ISN'T IT MORE
DIFFICULT FOR SOME COUNTIES TO
MOVE TO THE VOTE.
VOTERS VOTE CENTER MODEL THAN
OTHERS BASED ON SIZE.
WELL YOU'RE REALLY IN. THAT BUT
THAT THE SECRETARY PERHAPS COULD
I ANSWER THAT.
MORE DIRECTLY THAT THEN WE
COULD.
BUT I'M I MAY THINK IF IT'S
HARDER FOR SOME COUNTIES TO MAKE
THE TRANSITION VERSUS OTHERS.
IT'S PRIMARILY JUST A FUNCTION
OF POPULATION SIZE.
THERE'S NO INHERENT.
GEOGRAPHIC TOPOGRAPHICAL.
EVEN DEMOGRAPHIC COOLED.
CHALLENGES YOU KNOW THATARE
HARDER FO SOME COUNTIES VERSUS
OTHERS.
RIDLEY A FUNCTION OF SIZE AND
THAT BEING SAID.
IT'S LARGER COUNTIES THAT HAVE
MORE TO GAIN TO THE.
I OFFERED BY THE VOTERS CHOICE.
WE THEN IN IN TERMS OF
PUTTING RESTRICTIONS ON HOW YOU
ROLL THE MONEY OUT FOR EQUIPMENT
UPDATE WE SHOULD GIVE AT LEAST
GIVE THE SECRETARY GIVE YOUR.
OPERATION THE DISCRETION TO
MOVE MONEY TO COUNTIES THAT
CAN'T DO IT.
CERTAINLY NEED UPGRADES IS THAT
A FAIR STATEMENT BUT CAN'T DO A
MEASURE.
CAN'T MOVE TO A VOTE CENTER
MODEL FOR ONE REASON OR ANOTHER
IT'S MORE DIFFICULT POPULATION
SIZE YOU'VE DONE NOTHING I'M
SAYING I DON'T THINK THERE'S
ANY.
INHERENT
FACTORED MAKING IT MORE
DIFFICULT FOR SOME CASUAL IT'S
ALWAYS THE SAME ERRATA FOR
EVERYBODY.
IF IF ANYTHING IT MAY BE
DIFFERENT JUST BY THE SIZE OF
THE POPULATION.
BECAUSE YOU KNOW MORE VOTES
CENTERS BUT.
THOSE LARGE ACCOUNTS AT THE
LARGER POPULATIONS INHERENT HAVE
MORE TO GAIN FROM THE CLOSET SO
THERE'S NO EFFICIENT TO BE REAL
THERE IS NO IMPEDIMENT AND FOR
US TO TAKE THE LA OWES
RECOMMENDATION AND ROLL THEIR
MONEY OUT. WELL I I NAY RIGHT
YOU TO ROLL IT OUT. TO ENCOURAGE
COUNTIES TO VOTE TO THE COUNTIES
ARE MOVING THE VOTE CENTER MODEL
USES MY QUEST RIGHT SO FROM WHAT
I'M HEARING YOU KNOW IF IF IT'S
UP SOME OF THE POSITIVES
SECRETARY OF STATE IF IT'S
POSITIVE LEGISLATION THE
GOVERNOR THAT THE PREFERRED WAY
OF VOTING IN THE FUTURE. IS THE
VOTERS TWICE ACT MODEL VERSES
THE LEGACY POLLING PLACE MODEL.
CAN.
THE MONEY'S
YOU KNOW.
IN THE BUDGET BE UTILIZED AS IN
SOME WAY TO HELP INCENTIVIZE
THAT. ADOPTION AND THAT
TRANSITION.
CERTAINLY MORE THAN ME OPEN TO
HOW TO DO THAT BECAUSE WE DON'T
REALLY KNOW THAT YOU DON'T
REALLY KNOW THE RESULTS OF THAT
YET.
WE'RE JUST ROLLING OUT.
S. B. FOUGHT FOR FIFTY SO IT
WILL YES AND NO SENATE BILL FOUR
FIFTY THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR
THAT FIVE COUNTIES ARE ARE.
CONDUCTING THEIR ELECTIONS AND
TO THE VOTERS CHOICE ACT MODEL
THERE THE MODEL HAS BEEN TESTED
ON A COUPLE PILOT RUNS.
MOST RECENTLY SAN MATEO.
COUNTY AND I THINK THE RESULTS
WERE WHAT WE WERE EXPECTING
TURNOUT WAS UP THERE WERE SOME.
.
SOME SAVINGS REALIZED AND.
VOTER.
.
SATISFACTION WAS
BECAUSE.
OKAY I'D WITH I GUESS THAT'S A
DISCUSSION POINT AS WERE WORKING
THROUGH THE DOLLAR FIGURE HERE.
WHETHER WE WANT TO IMPOSE A
REQUIREMENT ON.
SECRETARY OF STATE TO ROLL THE
MONEY OUT BASED ON A PREFERENCE
FOR VOTE SENATOR.
EITHER A HIGHER MODEL OR GIVE
YOU THE DISCRETION.
TO PUT MONEY WHERE YOU THINK IT
WOULD BE BEST UTILIZED RIGHT OR
OR INCENTIVES.
IN SOME PLACES OR FORM SENATE
LASER.
WELL.
SAID I I I THINK THERE'S STILL
A QUESTION THE FACT THAT I COULD
ASK THE ANALYST MAYBE TO CLEAR
UP BECAUSE.
I WAS TRYING TO UNDERSTAND
WHETHER THIS TECHNOLOGY THAT
WE'RE GOING TO FIND. OUT HAS A
DIFFERENCE BASED ON A POLLING
CENTER MODEL OR VOTE CENTER
MODEL.
AND I THOUGHT THE ANSWER WAS
THAT THERE ISN'T ANY DIFFERENCE
THAT THAT IT'S A PAPER BALLOT
IRRESPECTIVE.
OF HOW IT'S CASTING IT'S
COUNTED.
IT CENTRAL PLACE IRRESPECTIVE
BUT COULD YOU CLARIFY THAT
POINT.
I CAN PROVIDE SOME CLARIFICATION
BY THINK THE SECRETARYCOULD ADD
ADD ON.
.
THE TECHNOLOGY REQUIRED AT THE
VOTE CENTER MODEL IF UNDER THE
VOTES ON OUR MODEL IS LARGELY
SIMILAR TO WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR
POLLING PLACE THE DIFFERENCE
BEING THAT VOTE CENTERS ARE
REQUIRED TO OFFER. A LARGER
SUITE OF SERVICES TO VOTERS.
WHICH MAY AFFECT WHAT TYPE OF
EQUIPMENT AND SERVE WHAT
INFORMATION IS AVAILABLE AT THE
VOTE CENTER AS COMPARED TO A
POLLING PLACE. THE VOTE CENTERS
ALSO ARE OPEN FOR A MUCH LONGER
PERIOD OF TIME AND THERE ARE
CERTAIN REQUIREMENTS. IN TERMS
OF THEIR ABILITY TO CATCH TO
CONNECT TO THE INTERNET FOR.
THE POLL BOOKS AND THAT SORT OF
THING.
NOT BECAUSE NOT BECAUSE.
IF THERE IS A PAPER RECORD FOR
EVERY VOTE CAST IN CALIFORNIA
UNDER STATUTE.
NOT EVERYONE THERE HOWEVER VOTES
ON AN ACTUAL PIECE OF PAPER. IN
SOME COUNTIES THEIR SYSTEMS ARE
AND ELECTRONIC TABLET THAT THEN
PRINTS OUT A HARD COPY FOR
PEOPLE TO REVIEW AND THEN IS
SAVED FOR THE AUDITS AND THAT
SORT OF THING.
IN ORANGE COUNTY FOR INSTANCE
YOU YOU VOTE ON SORT OF
SOMETHING THAT LOOKS LIKE A
GIANT OLD IPOD.
AND THEN THEY PRINTS OUT A
PAPER RECORD AND ORANGE COUNTY
TALLIES.
EACH OF THOSE UP.
.
SYSTEMS INDIVIDUALLY ONTO A CARD
AT THE AT THE POLLING PLACE AND
THEN THEY ARE TOTALLY DONE TOTAL
AT THE COUNTY SO THERE ARE SOME
DIFFERENCES IN TERMS OF HOW THE
TALLIES OCCUR.
ACROSS COUNTIES AND WHETHER IT
IS PHYSICALLY PAPER BALLOTS
BEING COUNTED AT ALL CASES
VERSES THERE SIMPLY BEING A
PAPER RECORD AND SOME AT THAT I
THINK ANOTHER MAYBE CLEAR
DISTINCTION IS THERE'S DIFFERENT
ELEMENTS TO VOTE WOULD
CONSTITUTE A VOTING.
RIGHT THE THE.
POINT WHERE A VOTER IS MAKING
THEIR SELECTIONS IN EITHER
MARKING A PIECE OF PAPER
DIRECTLY OR WITH THE ASSISTANCE
OF OF A DEVICE. THAT PRODUCES A
PAPER RECORD IS JUST ONE ELEMENT
RIGHT UP THE FIRST THING YOU DO
WHEN YOU AND TROUBLING PLEASE.
THE FIRST THING YOU DO IS YOU
CHECK IN WITH THE POLL WORKER.
RIGHT.
.
JUDICIAL PLOY PLACES HAVE THOSE
PAPER LEDGERS WRITE THAT THE THE
ROOM THE ROSTER
OF THE POLL BOOK
YOU WILL.
A PART OF MAKING DAY VOTERS
TWICE HACKED INTO VOTE CENTER
ELEMENT OF THE VOTERS CHOICE ACT
POSSIBLE IS.
THE ADVENT OF ELECTRONIC PULL
BOOKS.
THESE ARE NOT JUST DOING A
SINGLE PRECINCT YOU MAY HAVE
MULTIPLE PROGRESS THREATS VOTES
AND HOW HE HAS ACCESS TO ALL OF
THE VOTERS IN THAT COUNTY NOT
JUST A BRIDGE LIVE IN THAT
PARTICULAR NEIGHBORHOOD.
YOU KNOW WHAT YOU CHECK IN THERE
AND YOU GET YOUR YOUR BALLOT OR
THE CARD TO USE A DEVICE. THAT
YOU GO IN YOU MARK THAT BALLOTS
I THINK PART OF WHAT YOU'RE
ASKING ABOUT IS.
THE PAPER BALLOTS PAPER BALLOTS
IS.
OLD MODEL VERSUS NEW MODEL.
PAPER ABOUT REQUIREMENT IS GONNA
BE
AND NO MATTER WHAT WHAT IS
UNIQUE FROM A TECHNOLOGY NEEDS
TO THE COUNTY IS GOING TO VOTES
IN A MODEL WITH ELECTRONIC POLL
BOOKS.
NUMBER ONE.
NUMBER TWO.
TECHNOLOGY THAT RT'S KISS
EXISTS IN HIS ARMY PLACE IN
CALIFORNIA AND SOME COUNTIES.
NOTICE ABOUT ON DEMAND.
RIGHT THINKING TO CHALLENGE
WHAT I THINK THAT LEADS TO SO
MANY PROVISIONAL BALLOT EVERY
ELECTION CYCLE IS ASSEMBLY GOES
TO THE WRONG POLLING LOCATION.
WELL THE NAMES NOT ON THE
ROSTER.
I ACTUALLY GET A PROVISIONAL
BALLOT WILL UNDER THE VOTERS
CHOICE ACT.
IF YOU'RE IN YOUR COUNTY OF
RESIDENCE AT TO LOOK YOU UP
ELECTRONICALLY.
YOU BRING IN THE THE BALLOT THAT
THE MAIL TO YOU AT HOME THEY CAN
SWAP IT OUT FOR.
A BALLOT IF NOT.
SHORT OF THAT GOAL
HAD OF IT YOU KNOW IF A FIGHT
GOOD OF ACROSS TOWN FROM WHERE I
LIVE.
HOW DO THEY KNOW WHAT MY
CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT IS NICE?
ABOUT ON DEMAND CAN.
PRODUCE A CUSTOM BALLOT FOR YOU
AS A VOTER. ON THE SPOT TOOK
THAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT SEPARATE
AND APART FROM.
HOW BY MARK MY ABOUT A CASTING
THAT BALLOT THAT?
DIFFERENT TECHNOLOGY NEEDS FOR
THE CAT IS GOING TO VOTERS
CHOICE ADMITTED THAT THAT'S YOUR
INFORMATIVE AND HELPS ME NOW
UNDERSTAND.
HOW THIS TECHNOLOGY UPGRADES CAN
APPLY TO THE BOAT CENTER MODELS
THANK YOU FOR THAT?
?
I KNOW THAT WE'VE LEFT TO TO THE
COUNTIES TO KINDA DECIDE HOW THE
KIND OF EQUIPMENT THEY WANT TO
INSTALL RIGHT THERE'S NO IS IT
IS OUR STATE MANDATE THAT SAYS
THIS IS HOW YOU HAVE TO DO IT.
MY UNDERSTANDING THERE IS IT
RIGHT THAT'S WHY EACH COUNTY IS
KINDA CHOSEN HOW THEY WANNA.
SO BILLS UNDER CERTAIN BOUNCING
AFTER DEATHLY WORKING
PARTNERSHIP.
COUNTIES.
HAVE THE DISCRETION TO CHOOSE
WHAT VOTING SYSTEM PATHS FITS
THE NEEDS OF THEIR POPULATION.
BUT THEY CAN'T JUST PICK
ANYTHING FROM YOU KNOW OUT OF
THE BLUE VERY LIMITED TO WHAT
THEY CAN CHOOSE FROM FROM WHAT
CERTIFIED FOR USE IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA AND THAT'S WHAT
YOU DID YOU CERTIFY THESE
OPTIONS AND THEY PICK FROM THE
EXACTLY SO WE HAVE THE SAFETY.
AND SECURITY STANDARDS AMONG
OTHERS ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS
ETCETERA THAT.
.
VENDORS RUBS COME TO US WITH THE
SYSTEM.
WE PUT IT TO THE THAT THE
TESTING.
AND ONLY THOSE THAT MEET AND
EXCEED ALL THE STANDARDS THAT
WOULD REQUIRE ARE ELIGIBLE FOR
USE
OF AYE COUNTIES GOT AND WHEN'S
THE LAST TIME THE STATE'S
PROVIDED IN ALLOCATION OF MONEY.
S. LEVEL TO
THE COUNTIES TO ACCESS.
AGAIN I THINK IT'S BEEN A
THIRTEEN
FOURTEEN YEARS SINCE.
THE A VOTING MODERNIZATION
BOARD WHICH IS ACTUALLY A
MEASURE THAT WAS PUT BEFORE THE
VOTERS IN THE VOTERS APPROVED.
BECAUSE I GUESS THAT'S LIKE
OTHER QUESTION MISTER CHAIR THAT
COMES TO MIND IS THAT NOW WE
WERE PROVIDING A SUBSTANTIAL
AMOUNT OF MONEY THAT'S A CARROT.
DO WE WANT TO YOU KNOW NOW WE
HAVE A LITTLE MORE CONTROL OVER
THE SPENDING OF THAT AND WE
COULD NARROW THE CHOICES OR. WE
COULD CREATE A STATEWIDE.
BOB.
TECHNOLOGY PERIOD THAT THEY
IF THEY WANT THE MONEYTHEY
COULD PICK FROM BECAUSE IT MEETS
YOUR TEST SENATE.
CAN BE STANDARDIZED ACROSS THE
STATE RATHER THAN THESE UNIQUE
SYSTEMS THAT.
CAN BE STRONGER WEAKER AT.
pDISCUSSION THANK YOU FOR TAKING
THE TIME TO DO IT IS A LOT OF
MONEY AND I. I DO CONTINUE TO
WORRY THAT.
THAT WE ARE.
WE'RE SPENDING IT THE I ALTHOUGH
NECESSARY FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS
AND I IN A WAY IN WHICH
AS WE TRY TO ENCOURAGE MORE
PARTICIPATION.
AND MORE EFFICIENCIES IN OUR
CSUS
IS THAT.
WE'RE GONNA GO TO SOMETHING
COMPLETELY DIFFERENT AND THAT
AND
YOU'RE NOT TO
BUT YOU JUST THANK YOU FOR THAT
DISCUSSION.
WELL MR SECRETARY BEFORE WE WE
MOVE ON TO.
THE SENATOR WILL OCCUR OR.
PUBLIC COMMENT
WE'LL HAVE TO T. THIS UP FOR A
VOTE AT SOME POINT AND YOU SEE
THE LA OWES RECOMMENDATION THAT
WE DIRECT YOU TO DISTRIBUTE
FUNDS BASED ON.
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE VOTE
CENTER MODEL.
WHICH IS A DIRECTION AS OPPOSED
TO SOMETHING ELSE ARE YOU
COMFORTABLE WITH THAT OR WOULD
YOU PREFER ANOTHER REPROACH.
.
BUT HOW COME THROUGH WITH THAT
YOU WE CAN WORK TOGETHER ON A.
FURTHER SPECIFYING WHAT.
THE PROCESS WOULD BE.
THAT ON MAKE SURE THEY'RE
LOOKING FOR THE QUESTIONS GOOD
PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS ISSUE.
COME ON DOWN.
MONEY SENATORS I'M DEAN LOGIN
I'M THE REGISTRAR RECORDER
COUNTY CLERK FOR LOS ANGELES
COUNTY AND ALSO THE PRESIDENT OF
THE. CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
CLERKS ELECTED OFFICIALS I
APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO BE
HERE TO SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THIS
APPROPRIATION AND TO FOLLOW UP
ON. SECRETARY'S COMMENT AND THE
DIALOGUE THAT THAT YOU'RE HAVING
AYE I WANT TO JUST REINFORCE
WHAT THE SECRETARY STATED THAT
THE.
THE DAILY HEADLINES THAT WE'RE
SEEING ON THE THREATS AND
VULNERABILITIES IN VOTING
SYSTEMS IN THIS COUNTRY I'M ARE
ARE PERTINENT TO THIS AND. I'M
THERE'S THERE'S A LINK TO THAT
TO A RESOURCE ISSUE HEARING
CALIFORNIA AND I THINK THAT'S
WHAT I'M WE'RE HOPING TO SEE.
ADDRESSED HERE WHAT CALIFORNIA
BENEFITS FROM A POLICY
FOUNDATION THAT HELPS ENSURE
SECURITY.
.
VOTING SYSTEMS AND THINGS LIKE
AS WE'VE HEARD ABOUT THE PAPER
BALLOT ACCESSIBILITY STANDARDS
IN SOME WAYS CALIFORNIA'S THEN
THE LEAD IN THAT REGARD. OF THE
WAY WE RESOURCE AND THE
AVAILABILITY OF SYSTEMS IN
CALIFORNIA DOES NOT REALLY.
HOW HOLD UP TO THE VISION OF
THAT POLICY THAT HAS BEEN SET?
BY THE LEGISLATURE AND I THINK
THIS GOES A LONG WAY TO TO
EQUALIZE THAT ARE MOST COUNTIES
IN THE STATE IS YOU'VE HEARD ARE
RELYING ON TECHNOLOGY AND
EQUIPMENT FOR VOTING THIS MORE
THAN TEN TO FIFTEEN. YEARS OLD
AND RELIANT ON INTERFACES THAT
LACK THE ACCESSIBILITY AND
FUNCTIONAL CAPABILITIES THAT.
I'M ARE EXPECTED OF A LARGE AND
DIVERSE ELECTORATE TODAY.
WE ALSO LACK A STABLE SOURCE OF
FUNDING TO INVEST IN MODERNIZE
SOLUTIONS AND THE REALITY IS
THAT THE MARKET FOR AVAILABLE
SYSTEMS.
WHETHER IT'S LIKE IF I COUNTIES
OR OR DETERMINE BY THE STATE
RIGHT NOW IS A VERY LIMITED
MARKET AND A VERY PROPRIETARY
MARKET. WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY
THROUGH THIS FUNDING SOURCE AND
THROUGH POLICY THAT THE
LEGISLATURE HAS PASSED
PREVIOUSLY TO OPEN UP THAT
MARKET TO SOLUTIONS LIKE OPEN
SOURCE VOTING SYSTEMS.
AND UP PUBLICLY ON VOTING
SYSTEMS WHICH IS THAT SOMETHING
WE'RE WORKING TOWARDS AN LA
COUNTY.
I CAN TELL YOU THAT A LOS
ANGELES COUNTY OUR CORE VOTING
SYSTEM COMPONENTS
I'M NOT ARE ARE ARE WELL BEYOND
THE TEN TO FIFTEEN YEAR PERIOD I
OUR CORE VOTING SYSTEMS THEY
BACK TO NINETEEN SIXTY EIGHT.
IT PREDATES THE SECRETARY
PREDATES THE CHAIRS OF THE TO
ELECTIONS COMMITTEE AS OF THIS
LEGISLATURE AND PREDATES.
THE ENTIRE STAFF THAT I HAVE
WORKING TO MODERNIZE THAT
SYSTEM.
SO THAT TELLS YOU A LITTLE BIT
ABOUT THE AGE OF THE TECHNOLOGY
AT THAT WOULD THAT WERE WORKING
ON I'M HEARING IN CALIFORNIA.
WE'RE ON THE CUSP OF CHANGING
THAT IN LA COUNTY AND FRANKLY
WE'VE BEEN STYMIED BY.
A VERY.
.
A.
OLD REGULATORY ENVIRONMENT AND
AGAIN A VERY LIMITED MARKET TO
MEET THE NEEDS OF THE LARGEST
SELECTIONS JURISDICTION IN THE
COUNTRY WE'VE EMBARKED ON A
PROCESS TO AGAIN MOVE TEN OPEN
SOURCE. UP OWNED SYSTEM ABOUT TO
DO THAT IT'S GONNA TAKE AN
INVESTMENT BUT TO SENATOR
GLAZERS POINT.
WE WE HAVE DONE THAT IN A WAY
THAT ADOPTS AGILE TECHNOLOGY
MODELS THAN PREVIOUSLY VOTING
SYSTEMS IN CALIFORNIA HAVE BEEN
CERTIFIED AS INTO IN SYSTEM SO
ANYTHING THAT CHANGES THEM THEM.
IN TWO YEARS YOU HAVE TO GO BACK
TO CERTIFICATION OF DEATH BY OR
A HAVE TO START ALL OVER AGAIN.
THROUGH LEGISLATION PASSED HERE.
A FEW YEARS AGO.
SENATE BILL THREE SIXTY
I BY THEN CENTER VIDEO WE'VE
OPENED UP THE POSSIBILITY OF OF
MOVING TOWARD SYSTEMS AND
TECHNOLOGY THAT THAT IS
ADAPTABLE SO WHILE WE'RE MOVING
TOWARDS A SYSTEM. IN LA COUNTY
THAT THAT WILL USE BALLOT
MARKING DEVICES THAT VOTE
CENTERS IT'S ALSO I'M EQUIPMENT
THAT CAN BE ADAPTED SO IF AND
WHEN. THERE'S A CHANGE UP TO
BETTER TECHNOLOGY WE DON'T HAVE
TO SCRAP THAT AND START ALL OVER
WE CAN ACTUALLY ADAPTED AND MOVE
FORWARD I THINK IT'S AN
IMPORTANT POINT OF THE THE
VOTING MODERNIZATION FUNDS THAT
WERE PREVIOUSLY USING
CALIFORNIA.
AND THE HELP AMERICA VOTE ACT
FUNDS.
WE'RE ALL.
EXPENDED ON SYSTEMS THAT AGAIN
WHEN THIS VERY LIMITED
PROPRIETARY MARKET ONLY TO FIND
OUT THAT THERE WERE SECURITY
CONCERNS WITH THAT YOU MAY
RECALL THAT.
THAT THE SECRETARY OF STATE
BACK IN TWO THOUSAND SIX
DE CERTIFY LOT OF THE VOTING
SYSTEM SO THE MONEY THAT WAS
INVESTED BY MANY OF OUR
NEIGHBORING COUNTIES IN LA. FOR
NEW VOTING SYSTEMS.
I IT'S BEEN MOTHBALLED IN A
SITTING IN IN WAREHOUSES WHERE
THEY'RE PAYING STORAGE FEES FOR
BECAUSE IT IT LACKED THE. OUR
SECURITY IN EXCESS ABILITY TO
MEET THE NEEDS OF THE COUNTY ARE
WE'RE NOW IN A POSITION TWO. TO
ANTICIPATE THOSE NEEDS TO
ADDRESS THE SECURITY CONCERNS
AND TO TO LEAD I'M I THINK IN
THE NATION I'M AND MY COLLEAGUES
IN THE OTHER COUNTIES ARE. ARE
EAGER TO DO THAT BUT TO DO THAT
WE HAVE TO HAVE AN INITIAL
INVESTMENT IN THE SYSTEMS I
THINK LONG TERM THAT RESULTS IN
MORE COST EFFICIENT ELECTIONS SO
THE PER ELECTION COSTS THAT WE.
BUILD TO OUR JURISDICTIONS INTO
THE CITIES AND DISTRICTS THAT
ARE ON THE BALLOT OVER TIME.
THAT SHOULD BE A BENEFIT BUT
THAT ONLY THAT BENEFITS ONLY
REALIZED IF WE MAKE THE UP FRONT
INVESTMENT HOME IN THE IN THE
INFRASTRUCTURE UP FOR VOTING
SYSTEMS AND I THINK THAT THAT.
AT EVERY DAY.
YOU THERE'S NEWS CLIPPINGS
THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT THAT
AROUND THE COUNTRY SO I THINK
IT'S IT'S A WELL ESTABLISHED
BACK IN I THINK WE'VE. GOT THE
POLICY IN THE REGULATORY
FRAMEWORK TO DO IT RIGHT IN
CALIFORNIA WHAT WE NEED NOW IS
THE INVESTMENT SO I WOULD URGE
SUPPORT FOR THIS I'M I'M
ENCOURAGED TO HEAR THAT THERE'S
RECOGNITION THAT WHAT'S BEFORE
YOU IS. NOT SUFFICIENT.
AND TELL YOU TO PUT IN
PERSPECTIVE
THE HUNDRED THIRTY FOUR MILLION
AYE WE COULD EASILY USE THAT
ALL.
ON THE LA COUNTY.
PROJECT AND I AM BUT THAT'S NOT
FAIR TO THE OTHER FIFTY SEVEN
COUNTIES TO WE NEED TO. TO MOVE
FORWARD AS WELL.
BUT. BUT IF WE DON'T DO THIS WE
RISK WE RISK.
SECURITY CONCERNS THAT WE RISK A
MOVING FORWARD ON THE GOOD
POLICIES THAT HAVE BEEN SET
CALIFORNIA THAT WILL.
ENCOURAGE GREATER PARTICIPATION
AND MAKE VOTING EASIER WE CAN'T
DELIVER ON THIS POLICIES FULLY
WITHOUT THE INFRASTRUCTURE.
SO I WOULD URGE YOUR SUPPORT.
THANK YOU FOR THOSE.

IF YOU AGREE WITH THE LAST
GENTLEMAN.

APPROPRIATION THE FUNDING IS

INCENTIVE.
THAT IS A FACTOR INVOLVED THERE.

MISTER CHAIRMAN.
.
JOINING.
AS YOU CAN SEE.
BLANCA RUBIO ASSEMBLY MEMBER IS
JOINING ME IN THIS REQUESTED. IN
ADDITION WE HAVE TWENTY NINE
ADDITIONAL LEGISLATORS.
AND OVER HUNDRED.
ORGANIZATIONS.
WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR
SUPPORT.
OF A FIFTY MILLION DOLLAR
ONGOING ALLOCATION TO CREATE A
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
AND SECTION THE SEXUAL VIOLENCE
COMPLEMENTARY PREVENTION
SERVICES FUND.
UNDER THE OFFICE OF EMERGENCY
SERVICES.
NOW DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
PREVENTION NEEDS TO BE ELEVATED
TO OURS PRIORITY.
DESPITE A SHARP INCREASE IN
NEED FUNDING FOR DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE.
SEXUAL VIOLENCE REMAINED
STAGNANT.
WE HAVE REALLY NOT INCREASED IN
THE BUDGET COMMITMENT FROM THE
STATE CALIFORNIA DECADES IN THIS
PROGRAM.
THESE THESE PROGRAMS HAVE NOT
RECEIVED ANY ADDITIONAL FUNDS.
RAPE CRISIS OUR PROGRAMS ONLY
FUNDED AT FORTY FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR.
AND DOMESTIC VIOLENCE PROGRAMS
HAVE NOT RECEIVED A BUDGETARY
INCREASE IN ALMOST TWENTY YEARS.
SEXUAL VIOLENCE SO LONG BECAUSE
A HUNDRED FORTY BILLION DOLLARS
IN CALIFORNIA.
ONE TIME OF FUNDING DOES NOT
ADDRESS GREEK REOCCURRING NEEDS
FOR THE SERVICES.
WITHOUT FUNDING FOR LONG TERM
SERVICES INCLUDE FLEXIBLE
FUNDING.
FOR HOUSING COMPREHENSIVE CASE
MANAGEMENT SERVICES.
SURVIVORS AND THEIR FAMILIES
CYCLE FROM ONE CRISIS TO INDEX.
SURVIVORS NEED.
SOLID ONGOING FUNDING.
THIS KEY INVESTMENT STRENGTHENS
THE STATE'S RESPONSE TO DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL VIOLENCE
BEYOND THE.
JUST A MOMENT OF THE CRISIS.
IT MAKES FINANCIAL SENSE TO
REDUCE THE LONG TERM COSTS BY
FOCUSING ON. PREVENTION AND
WRAPAROUND SERVICES.
NOW MY COLLEAGUE ASSEMBLY WOMAN
RUBIO WOULD LIKE TO SAY A FEW
WORDS ALTERNATIVE FOR.
THANK YOU SENATOR ROBB THEN.
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE ADDS A
GREAT TO BE WITH YOU AGAIN.
TODAY I THIS TIME ONLY ASKING
FOR FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS.
FLEISCHMAN. ONLY ONLY AND I.
WHO MY COLLEAGUE?
AND THE SENATE COVERED MOST OF
WHAT WE HAVE TO STAY HERE BUT I
AM THE CHAIR OF THAT THE.
SELECT COMMITTEE ON.
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND.
I HAVE A FAMILY SITUATION WHERE.
MY SISTER WAS A VICTIM OF
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE OF THIS ISSUE
IS VERY NEAR AND DEAR TO ME AS
IT SHOULD BE TO THE LEGISLATURE.
.
AND I AM HERE TO REQUEST AGAIN
ONLY FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS.
FOR GRADES.
BECAUSE IN SERVICES FOR
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE VICTIMS AND I
APPRECIATE THAT THE THE
LEADERSHIP HAT MY COLLEAGUE HAS
SHOWN AND ALSO I APPRECIATE YOU
BRINGING THIS AND BRINGING THE
IT'S TO US BECAUSE IT'S REALLY
IMPORTANT. ESPECIALLY FOR
COMMUNITIES ARE LIKE MINE VERY
LOW INCOME COMMUNITIES I AM OUT
COMMUNITIES OF COLOR AND I THINK
ALL COMMUNITIES BECAUSE
UNFORTUNATELY. THAT DOMESTIC
VIOLENCE DOESN'T SEE COLOR
GENDER OR.
SOCIAL ECONOMIC AREA ISSUES AND
SO I'M ADVOCATING FOR MY
COMMUNITY AS WELL AS THE WHOLE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA BECAUSE I
KNOW IT IS A.
DRAMATIC THERE HAS BEEN A
DRAMATIC INCREASE IN IN A
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND.
HOPEFULLY WITH AS MANY WEAKENED.
STOP OR HELP ERADICATE SOME OF
THAT THE INCREASES OF THANK YOU
VERY MUCH AND THANK YOU FOR
ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK THANK YOU
FOR YOUR EFFORTS.
I THINK HE'S
NORA YES OKAY GREAT I'M SO I
THINK FOR A FOR A LONG TIME IN
MANY YEARS WE'VE BEEN AWARE OF
THE IMPACT ON THE PREVALENCE OF
SEXUAL VIOLENCE.
YOU KNOW AMONG FAMILIES AND THE
IMPACT THAT IT HAS WHAT WE
HAVEN'T KNOWN IS REALLY WHAT
THAT COST THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA. AND SO IN TWENTY
TWELVE YOU KNOW MY ORGANIZATION
CALIFORNIA CAUTIONING OF SEXUAL
ASSAULT COMMISSIONED ONE A
LEADING RESEARCHERS IN THE
NATION TO DO THIS RESEARCH
THAT'S ON. DOCTOR TED MILLER.
WHO'S DONE SIMILAR REPORTS FOR
SOME OTHER STATES AS WELL AND SO
WE REALLY WANT TO LOOK AT WHAT
IS THE IMPACT WHAT DOES IT COST
US AND. WHAT WOULD WE NEED? HOW
WHAT WOULD WE SAVE ENTRANCE OF
IF WE WERE ABLE TO PREVENT THIS
FROM HAPPENING?
AND SO MANY OF YOU HAVE
PROBABLY SEEN THE REPORT IN A WE
WERE DISTRIBUTED IT BUT IN
TWENTY TWELVE SO WE'RE LOOKING
AT A SNAPSHOT OF TWENTY TWELVE.
THERE WERE NINE HUNDRED FORTY
EIGHT THOUSAND CALIFORNIANS WHO
WERE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED WITH A
TOTAL INCIDENT OF A BY THE RAPE
OR SEXUAL ASSAULT THAT EXCEEDED
ONE POINT ONE MILLION. SO THAT'S
A LOT OF VIOLENCE THAT WE'RE
LOOKING AT A LOT OF SEXUAL
VIOLENCE.
I AM WHEN THEN WE START LOOKING
AT THE COST WE GET TO THE
TANGIBLE COST AND WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT TANGIBLE THAT'S THOSE ARE
THINGS LIKE MEDICAL HEALTH CARE.
MENTAL HEALTH CARE PROPERTY
DAMAGE VICTIM SERVICES AND COST
OF EDUCATION.
THOSE TANGIBLE COSTS
CAME TO. OVER NINE BILLION
DOLLARS.
THEN WE LOOK AT THE INTANGIBLE
COSTS OF THE THINGS THAT WE
DON'T SEE EVERY DAY BUT WELL
LOSS OF WORK PRODUCTIVITY. BOMB
EARNED EARNING LOSS WHILE
CONFINED THE LOSS OF QUALITY OF
LIFE AND WHEN WE LOOK AT THOSE
THOSE ARE OVER. A HUNDRED AND
THIRTY BILLION SO WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT A HUNDRED AND FORTY
BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR THAT
SEXUAL VIOLENCE IS COSTING THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
SO AND AND AND THEN WE KNOW THAT
OUR CHILDREN ARE OUR FUTURE SO
WHEN WE LOOK AT WHAT THE IMPACT
IS ON CHILDREN.
WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT A ALMOST
TWO THIRDS OF THOSE COSTS?
SO WE CLEARLY CLOSE TO NINETY
SEVEN NINETY BILLION DOLLARS OF
THAT RESULTED FROM THE RAPE AND
SEXUAL ABUSE OF CHILDREN. IN OUR
STATE.
WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT
THAT
AND I I FEEL LIKE WE DO NOT HAVE
TIME AND THAT'S PART OF WHY
WE'RE HERE. WE NOT WE'VE BEEN
HEARING THE MEDIA. MORE ABOUT
THIS ISSUE THAT FOR SO MANY
YEARS HAS BEEN TABOO AND
DIFFICULT TO TALK ABOUT.
AND NOW WHAT WE SEE AND WE
UNDERSTAND. IS THAT EVERY
INDUSTRY AND SECTOR OF SOCIETY
WHEN NO ONE IS IMMUNE WE'RE
SEEING IT EVERYWHERE RIGHT WE'VE
SEEN IT. IN AND VERY PUBLIC
PLACES WE ALL ARE AWARE OF THAT
AND SO ARE OUR GOAL IS TO.
PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING IN THE
FIRST PLACE.
YES WE WANT TO SERVE THOSE ARE
IMPACTED AND SO THERE'S A WE'RE
LOOKING AT THAT HERE AS WELL BUT
WE NEED TO PREVENTIVE.
THE PATTERNS OF PREVENTION
DOLLARS.
THE ONLY PREVENTION DOLLARS THAT
EXIST IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
COME FROM THE FAT FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT.
AND BACK IN TWENTY FOURTEEN.
THOSE FUNDS WERE CUT DUE TO SOME
CHANGES IN AND ROLLS AROUND THE
VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN ACT.
AND WHERE THEY WANT TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE MONEY WAS MORE
EQUITABLY SPENT AND SO THE LARGE
STATES LIKE CALIFORNIA LOST
MONEY. WE LOST CLOSE TO A
MILLION DOLLARS WHICH WHAT THAT
MEANT IS THAT. WE COULD NOT AND
WE CANNOT OFFER PREVENTION AND
EVERY COUNTIES OF THE STATE'S
FROM OUT THERE ARE. PROBABLY
THIRTY AREAS IN THE STATE WHERE
THERE'S PREVENTION EDUCATION AND
IT'S NOT EVEN COMPREHENSIVE IT'S
NOT EVEN COVERING ALL OF THEIR A
ES ASPECTS OF
IT'S VERY MINIMAL. BUT WHAT WE
SO THIS IS ONE OF THE HUGE
ASPECTS OF THIS OF OF WHAT WE'RE
LOOKING FOR IN TERMS OF THIS
BUDGET REQUEST.
WHAT WE KNOW IS THAT THE STATE
COULD SAVE?
CLOSE TO A HUNDRED SIXTY FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS.
FOR EVERY PREVENTED OR RAPE OR
SEXUAL ASSAULT.
OF AN ADULT AND CLOSE TO IN
ABOUT TWO HUNDRED TWENTY SEVEN
THOUSAND PER CHILD.
IT SEXUALLY ASSAULTED
THAT'S WHAT WE COULD SAVE IF WE
WERE TO INVEST IN PREVENTION.
WELL WHAT WE'RE LOOKING TO DO
HERE IS AN INCREASE PUBLIC
AWARENESS.
WE KNOW THAT THERE'S BEEN A LOT
OF INCREASE PUBLIC AWARENESS
FROM. LOOKING SPECIFICALLY AT
VICTIMS AND WHAT THEIR ROLE OR
RESPONSIBILITY MAY BE TO LOOKING
AT WHAT THE ROLE IS OF SOCIETY
AND THE VARIOUS SYSTEMS AND MORE
LOOKING AT CREATING CHANGE THAT
IS.
SYSTEMIC.
SO THAT WE CAN. ACTUALLY HAVE A
CHANCE OF STOPPING THIS.
CALIFORNIA HAS A DEMONSTRATED
HISTORY YOU KNOW OF OF LEADING
THE NATION.
AND WE HOPE TO DO SO HERE AGAIN.
AS THE SENATOR MENTIONED.
FOR SEXUAL ASSAULT CURRENTLY THE
STATE GENERAL FUND CONTRIBUTES
FORTY FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS TO
THE ANTS TIRE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
THAT COMES TO.
LESS THAN. A DOLLAR AROUND
DOLLAR.
PER SURVIVOR THAT'S BEING SERVED
BY THE EXISTING SAFETY NET. WE
HAVE TO INVEST MORE WAS THAT
NUMBER AGAIN FORTY FIVE THOUSAND
DOLLARS FOR THE ENTIRE CITY.
THAT'S A STATE GENERAL FUND
CONTRIBUTION AND HAVE NOT
CHANGED
FOR.
BUT IT'S NEVER CHANGED IF THAT'S
THE AMOUNT THAT IT'S BEEN.
AND. AND SO THEM ON WE WANT TO
SPEAK TO.
IN TERMS OF CALORIE US BEING
THE STATE ADMINISTERED THEY ARE
CURRENTLY THE STATE
ADMINISTRATOR FOR THE FEDERAL
DOLLARS.
WE FEEL THAT.
THEY HAVE ALLOWED US IN THE
WORKING FIELD BOTH IN SEXUAL AND
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE.
WITH LOTS OF OPPORTUNITIES TO
HAVE INPUT ABOUT WHAT OUR NEEDS
ARE WHAT THE GAPS ARE THE.
HAVE A VERY GOOD PROCESS TO
BRING STAKEHOLDERS TO THE TABLE
WHICH IS PART OF WHY WE FEEL
VERY COMFORTABLE WITH THEM. ON
ADMINISTERING THESE FUNDS AND
THEN.
JUST.
A SECOND I WANTED TO TALK A
LITTLE BIT ABOUT PREVENTION AND
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR AND
WHAT'S NECESSARY.
BOB WHEN WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
PREVENTION WHAT WE ARE TALKING
ABOUT IS LOOKING AT THIS
COMPREHENSIVELY SO IN THE PAST
WHEN PEOPLE THOUGHT ABOUT
PREVENTION WHAT THEY THOUGHT
ABOUT WAS. HOW WE WOULD?
WHAT WE WOULD DO TO THE
POTENTIAL VICTIMS WEB CAN
EDUCATION WHAT WHAT SHOULD WE DO
ABOUT CHANGING CURTAILING THEIR
BEHAVIOR SO THESE THINGS WON'T
HAPPEN? WE'VE LEARNED A LOT
SINCE THOSE DAYS
AND ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE
KNOW IS THAT WE HAVE TO TAKE A
COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH.
AND THAT INCLUDES WORKING ON
CHANGING THE ATTITUDES AND THE
ENVIRONMENTS THAT ALLOW THIS
TYPE OF VIOLENCE TO EXIST
RIGHT THAT ALLOW IT TO BE
NORMALIZED AND MADE OKAY. THAT'S
HUGE WE NEED TO CHANGE ATTITUDES
AND SOCIETY WE NEED TO WORK ON
THOSE AROUND WHO ARE BY
STANDARDS WHO. ARE ABLE TO.
.
STEP UP AND SAY HEY THAT'S NOT
OKAY LET NO THAT'S NOT COOL YOU
KNOW THINGS LIKE THAT. AND WE
ALSO NEED TO ADDRESS THOSE THAT
ARE POTENTIAL VICTIMS IN TERMS
OF REDUCING RISK
SO WE NEED TO TAKE A
COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH. BOMB AND
WE BELIEVE THAT THROUGH THIS.
REQUEST THAT WE ARE MAKING WE
WOULD NOT ONLY ADDRESS THE
PREVENTION BUT WE ALSO WANT TO
ADDRESS HOW WE SERVE. OF VICTIMS
IN WAYS THAT ARE ARE ARE ALSO
MORE COMPREHENSIVE THAN WHAT
WE'RE CURRENTLY ABLE TO DO WITH
THE FUNDING THAT WE HAVE THAT.
YOU KNOW AGAIN MOST OF IT PASSES
FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
AND THEN WE WANT WE UNDERSTAND
THE IMPORTANCE.
OF THE NEED TO DO RESEARCH AND
EVALUATION ON WHAT WERE DOING SO
WE HAVE ON A PIECE IN THAT BY
THAT TO SO. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
AND TANK YOU FOR ALLOWING US TO
BE HERE ONE OF THE THINGS YOU
MENTIONED WAS IT'S APPARENTLY
SOME COUNTIES HERE MORE SHORT
CHANGE THAN OTHERS. A YOU MIGHT.
MAKE SURE THAT THE CENTRE BELL
ON THE SUMA RUBIO HAVE THAT
INFORMATION SO THEY CAN
DISSEMINATE IT TO US THAT MAY
MAKE AN IMPACT ON.
THE FORCE THAT YOU HAVE BEHIND
YOU HERE YEAH YEAH AND I
APPRECIATE THAT AND AND AND I
THINK WHAT I'D LIKE TO SAY IS
THAT ALL OF THE COUNTIES.
NOBODY HAS WHAT THEY NEED
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH BECAUSE WITH
THAT CUT. WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH
TO BEGIN WITH RIGHT BUT WITH
THAT CUT IT ONLY MADE THE MATTER
WORSE WHERE NOW THE. SENATE HAS
TO BE THE CALIFORNIA STORY
NOBODY HAS WITH THE NEED BUT IN
THIS PARTICULAR CASE I THINK
THAT MIGHT BE.
DESTRUCTIVE TO THE MEMBERS
ABSOLUTELY HAVING TO PROVIDE
THAT INFORMATION.
YES MA'AM.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
WE'VE AND ALL OF OUR SISTER
AGENCIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE
PROVIDE AN ARRAY OF SERVICES.
MOST OF WHICH ARE.
IN STATE STATUTE AND ARE VERY
INTERVENTION ORIENTED RUNNING
SAFE HOUSES PROVIDING THERAPY A
LOT OF AFTER THE FACT STUFF AND
A LOT OF SERVICES THAT ARE
HAPPENING. AT THEIR CENTERS THAT
CLIENTS HAVE TO GET TO.
WE'VE HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN
COBBLING TOGETHER SOME PRIVATE
DONATIONS AND SOME OTHER
SMALLER.
TEMPORARY GRANTS TO REALLY TEST
SOME OF THESE NEW STRATEGIES
WHICH THIS FUNDING COULD.
ALLOW US TO CONTINUE FOR
INSTANCE BEING ABLE TO HAVE
MOBILE ADVOCACY WHERE WE'RE
GOING TO THOSE HIGH NEED
NEIGHBORHOODS IN PROVIDING
SERVICES RIGHT THERE IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE.
DICK VICTIMS DON'T NEED TO FIND
pOF THAT TO GET GET THE HELP
THAT
THEY NEED. AND WERE ABLE TO
INTERVENE BEFORE THE VIOLENCE
ESCALATES BEFORE. THEIR HOMELESS
AND HAVE TO COME TO US AND
THAT'S MADE A REALLY BIG
DIFFERENCE IN OUR ABILITY TO
SERVE CLIENTS ALSO BEING ABLE TO
WORK WITH MEDICAL PROVIDERS AND
TO GO TO HOSPITALS AND LABOR AND
DELIVERY ROOMS. AND PROVIDE THAT
ADVOCACY.
RIGHT ON THE SPOT AT A POINT
WHEN SOMEBODY MIGHT BE MORE
WILLING TO HEAR THE MESSAGE
ABOUT HOW THEY CAN HELP
THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILY. AS
FAR AS PREVENTION GOES. THE
OTHER ONE ONE SHOT GOING INTO
CLASSROOMS AND TALKING TO KIDS
THEY DON'T HEAR THAT THEY
REALLY.
THEY NEED THAT COMPREHENSIVE
WORK FOR WORKING WITH TEACHERS
WORKING WITH STUDENTS STUDENTS
AS LEADERS WERE WORKING WITH THE
ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS.
TO CHANGE THE DIALOGUE AND
CHANGE WHAT'S ACCEPTABLE IN
COMMUNITIES. AND THERE JUST
ISN'T ENOUGH MONEY TO DO THAT
PREVENTION WORK ON THAT DEEP
LEVEL.
SO I URGE YOU TO CONSIDER THIS
THERE IS A LOT OF AMAZING. WORK
OUT THERE.
THAT WE ALL COULD BE DOING AND
WE JUST DON'T HAVE THE FUNDS
BECAUSE THE FUNDS THAT WE DO
HAVE. ARE SO TIED TO SPECIFIC
ACTIVITIES THAT CERTAINLY ARE
PROVIDING A SAFETY NET FOR
CLIENTS BUT.
WHERE WE'RE MISSING SO MANY
CLIENTS WERE MISSING THIS
OPPORTUNITY? TO NIP THIS AND
CREATE A COMMUNITY THAT DOESN'T
TOLERATE DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AND
SEXUAL ASSAULT.
THANK YOU FOR JOINING US OF

THE LEVEL OF STATE GENERAL FUND
SUPPORT FOR THIS ISSUE IS.
.
SHOCKING.
OBVIOUSLY BUDGET AND ITS BUDGET
REQUESTS
I SEE THEM FREQUENTLY.
IT'S ALWAYS A BALANCING ACT WHEN
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT THE STATE
BUDGET BECAUSE AS I MENTIONED
THERE'S NO SHORTAGE OF NEED IN
THE STATE IN A VARIETY OF AREAS
BUT.
AND WE BET TRY TO BALANCE
COMPETING PRIORITIES BUT
CERTAINLY IN THE BALANCING THAT
WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING THIS
YEAR. A WITH THIS BUDGET.
WHO WITH SOME SURPLUS THAT WE
DO HAVE?
THIS IS CERTAINLY IN MY VIEW A
PRIORITY THAT NEEDS TO BE AT THE
TOP SO I LOOK FORWARD TO
CONTINUING.
DISCUSSIONS SO.
WITH MY COLLEAGUES IN WITH YOU
IN WITH THE OTHERS THAT SPOKE TO

YOUR NAME FOR THE RECORD AND
THEN WE'LL MOVE AROUND THE ROOM.
GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS THE COMMITTEE TINA CURRY
DEPUTY DIRECTOR WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF EMERGENCY
SERVICES THANK YOU FOR JOINING
US. TOUGHEST OUT ASSISTANT
DIRECTOR.
OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES FOR
THE OFFICE OF EMERGENCY SERVICES
YOU FOR JOINING US JARED MARTIN.
JUST IN TIME RUNNING ARE BUT THE
BRANCH CHIEF FOR THAT
CALIFORNIA'S EARTHQUAKE AND
TSUNAMI PROGRAM GET ENOUGH ROOM
THERE AND WE WANT TO HAVE ONE
RIGHT OVER HERE. AS WILL BE
COMFORTABLE.
YEAH VITAMIN GENWORTH DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE AND WE'RE THANK YOU.
RHINELANDER LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE.
HOW INTERESTING LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE?
ARE COMING BACK FOR MORE.
OKAY WHO WANTS TO PRESENT.
SO WE'RE REQUESTING.
SORRY.
WE'RE A QUESTION FIFTEEN MILLION
SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY THOUSAND
DOLLARS OF GENERAL FUND AND
TWENTY EIGHTEEN WITH ONGOING
RESOURCES OF SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY
THOUSAND GENERAL FUND. TO
COMPLETE THE BUILD OUT OF THE
NECESSARY STATIONS FOR THE
EARTHQUAKE EARLY WARNING SYSTEM
AND TO SUPPORT EXISTING
POSITIONS.
THIS WILL ALLOW FOR THE
INSTALLATION OF THE REMAINING
TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY THREE
EARTHQUAKE EARLY WARNING
STATIONS OF THE ONE THOUSAND ONE
HUNDRED AND FIFTEEN STATIONS
THAT HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS.
NEEDED STATEWIDE.
THE SYSTEM WILL PROVIDE THE
PUBLIC WITH ADVANCE WARNING WHEN
OF WHEN AN EARTHQUAKE WILL OCCUR
WHICH WILL ALLOW TIME TO PREPARE
OR STOP CRITICAL FUNCTIONS SUCH
AS SURGERIES OR TRAIN
OPERATIONS.
PRIOR TO THE ONSET OF SHAKING.
AND TWENTY SIXTEEN SEVENTEEN
CALLAWAY ES RECEIVED A ONE TIME
APPROPRIATION OF TEN MILLION
DOLLARS AND FOUR POSITIONS TO
INVEST IN THE INSTALLATION AND
UPGRADE. OF THE CALIFORNIA
EARTHQUAKE EARLY WARNING SYSTEM.
IN TWENTY SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN WE
WERE ABLE TO IDENTIFY ONE TIME
SAVINGS FROM GRANT FUNDS TO
SUPPORT THE FOUR POSITIONS
HOWEVER THIS FUNDING SOURCE IS
NOT SUSTAINABLE. SO WE'RE
REQUESTING GENERAL FUND TO
SUPPORT THESE POSITIONS ONGOING
IN ORDER TO PROVIDE A CONSISTENT
AND STABLE FUNDING SOURCE.
AND WITH THAT I'LL TURN IT OVER
TO TINA CURRY FOR MORE.
HI SO WE HAVE A VISUAL AID OTHER
WHAT AND WONDERING WHERE IT WENT
THAT MIGHT HELP TO DEPICT SORT
OF WHERE WE'VE BEEN AND WHERE WE
HOPE TO GO. ON THIS ISN'T A NEW
YOU A PROJECT THAT WE'RE JUST
STARTING WE WERE GRATEFUL FOR
THE SUPPORT WE HAD IN TWO
THOUSAND SIXTEEN SEVENTEEN THAT
GOT A LOT OF THEY I'M SOMEWHAT
BECAUSE I SMOKE STATION DENSITY
BELT OUT WHICH IS THE KEY.
INFRASTRUCTURE PART TO ALLOW
THESE WARNINGS TO BE DELIVERED
THROUGHOUT CALIFORNIA WHEN AN
EARTHQUAKE HAPPENS.
IN ADVANCE OF THAT EARTHQUAKE
SO THAT THE THINGS THAT TAP OF
THE MENTIONED CAN HELP BUT YOU
KNOW PEOPLE CAN TAKE COVER.
AND ALSO CRITICAL.
YOU KNOW AUTOMATED ACTIONS CAN
TAKE PLACE THIS ISN'T SOMETHING
THAT.
IS.
YOU KNOW SCIENCE IS COMING OUT
THAT'S NEW IT EXISTS THE SYSTEM
EXISTS IN OTHER COUNTRIES JAPAN
MEXICO AND MAY BE FAMILIAR WITH
THOSE SO IT IT'S TIME WE FEEL
FOR CALIFORNIANS HAVE THAT SAME.
TO HAVE THAT SAME.
CAPABILITY AND SOUNDS VERY
IMPORTANT TO US OBVIOUSLY
KNOWING THAT IT'S NOT A MATTER
OF IF UNEARTHLY IS GOING TO
HAPPEN IT'S IT'S A MATTER OF
WHEN AND THEY HAVE HAPPENED IN
CALIFORNIA WITH DEVASTATING.
CONSEQUENCES SO THE.
THAT FLEET THAT NETWORK.
OF ELEVEN HUNDRED OR SO SENSORS
WHICH IS WHAT THE SCIENCE AND.
ACADEMIC FOLKS THAT STUDY THIS
HAVE DETERMINED AS OPTIMUM
DISTRIBUTION OF OF.
OF SENSORS BASED ON OUR FAULTS
THAT WE KNOW OF WHERE PEOPLE ARE
IN ORDER TO OPTIMIZE THAT THE
WARNING THEY CAN GET.
SO WHEN WE FINISH THIS TWO
HUNDRED EIGHTY THREE SENSOR
INSTALLATION WE'RE GOOD TO GO
THE GREEN LIGHT WERE START WILL
START GETTING.
NOR ADVANCE WARNINGS TO THE
EXTENT WE ARE YOU KNOW THAT WILL
ALLOW US TO GENERATE THIS SIGNAL
A FEW SECONDS IN ADVANCE THEN
THE SIGNAL NEEDS BE PICKED UP
AND ACTUALLY DELIVERED INTO. A
VARIETY OF THINGS SO THAT COULD
BE CELLPHONE SOME HOPEFULLY IN
THE FUTURE THAT CAN BE.
OTHER TYPES OF AUTOMATED
SYSTEMS THAT YOU KNOW ENGINEERS
WILL AND UTILITY COMPANIES WILL
FIGURE OUT AND.
IN SO FORTUNATELY A LOT OF THAT
TESTING IS UNDER WAY ON THE BAY
AREA RAPID TRANSIT SYSTEM IS A
GOOD EXAMPLE THEY'VE BEEN
TESTING THIS EARTHQUAKE EARLY
WARNING FOR SOME TIME ACTUALLY
RECEIVING IT AND.
AND.
PRACTICING HOW THEY WOULD
ACTUALLY IS AND ACTUALLY
STOPPING TRAINS AND IN ADVANCE
OF THE EARTHQUAKE SHAKING I'M WE
WE FORTUNATELY I HAVEN'T HAD A
LOT OF EARTHQUAKES TO TEST IT
BUT WE CERTAINLY WANT TO BE ABLE
TO TEST IT. I'M SO THOSE TYPES
OF I'M RECEIVING IN DISTRIBUTION
METHODS WILL BE.
ARE ALSO WORKING ON IN PARALLEL
TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE'RE GOING TO
GET THE SIGNAL DISTRIBUTED IN
CONNECTED TO SYSTEMS AS RAPIDLY
AS POSSIBLE BUT THIS FUNDAMENTAL
BUILD OUT OF THE SENSORS TO
ACTUALLY GENERATE AS.
THE STEP THAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN
FIRST SO I'M SORT OF JUMPING
AHEAD OF OTHERS BUT LET ME JUST
ASK A COUPLE SO WHO'S IN CHARGE
OF THE IMPLEMENTATION PEACE ONCE
A CENTERS ARE IN PLACE I MEAN
I'VE WE HAD SOME CONVERSATION.
ABOUT SOMETHING ELSE HAVING TO
DO WITH THAT WE ASSN.
IT WAS IT IN THAT PARTICULAR
CASE AND I DON'T REMEMBER
SPECIFICALLY WHAT IT IS I
APOLOGIZE I GUESS I'M GETTING
OLD. BUT IT WAS SORT OF A LOCAL
OPTION AS TO HOW THINGS ARE
RULED OUT OR WHAT SORT OF.
WHITMAN WAS USED.
IN TERMS OF TAKING THE SENSOR
INFORMATION AND
IMPLEMENTING THE WARNING SYSTEM.
AND MAKING IT USER FRIENDLY
IMPRACTICAL FOR.
THE CITIZENS AND RESIDENTS OF
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
WHO DOES THAT WELL IT IS IT IS
TO WE DO WANT THOSE I'M KIND OF
LOCALIZED CHARACTERISTICS TO BE
DECIDED BY THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
THAT WILL USE THIS BUT WHAT WE
HAVE HEARD AND AND I'M KIND AND
NOUN FROM OF THE EXTENSIVE WORK
WE'VE BEEN DOING WITH
STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDING? MEMBERS
ARE ADVISORY COMMITTEE THAT
INCLUDES MEMBERS OF ON BUSINESS
AND INDUSTRY AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENT IS THAT YOU KNOW MASS
NOTIFICATION PREFERABLY THROUGH
CELLPHONES WHICH YOU KNOW. JUST
ABOUT EVERYBODY HAS IS REALLY
ONE OF THE BIGGEST VALUES THAT
THAT PEOPLE SEE IN THE SYSTEM AS
WHAT ORKS WELL ANOTHER SO WEAK
SO WE DO SEE THAT BEING. ONE OF
THE WAYS THAT.
WILL BE UNIFORM WHETHER YOU'RE
VISITING CALIFORNIA OR LIVE HERE
THAT WE WILL ULTIMATELY CD'S ON
THE CELLPHONES BUT TO TO TO SOME
DEGREE THERE WILL BE SOME THINGS
THAT ARE. THAT ARE YOU KNOW KIND
OF DIFFERENT BASED ON COMMUNITY
SOME SOME BUT FIRST RESPONDERS
IN CERTAIN COMMUNITIES. VALUE
AND IN CREATING.
AUTOMATED ACTIONS AND RAISING
FIRE STATION DOORS IS ONE
EXAMPLE THAT WE'VE COME UP WITH
THAT WE WOULD EXPECT THAT ON
LOCAL GOVERNMENT IS EVALUATE
THAT THE BENEFITS OF SYSTEM
WHILE WELL DECIDE WHETHER. YOU
KNOW TO TO KIND OF TAKE THOSE
DIFFERENT TYPES OF ACTIONS TO
USE THE SYSTEM AND IN DIFFERENT
WAYS THAT WORKS BEST FOR THEM
CERTAINLY IN THE PRIVATE SECTOR.
BUSINESSES AND INDUSTRIES THEY
NEED TO KIND OF LOOK AT HOW
THEIR THEIR MECHANICAL FUNCTIONS
WORK AND DECIDE YOU KNOW DOES IT
MAKE SENSE TO TURN SOMETHING
OFFER TURN SOMETHING ON IN
ADVANCE OF AN EARTHQUAKE YOU
KNOW THOSE ARE BUSINESS
DECISIONS THAT. EACH INDUSTRY IS
GOING TO MAKE.
WE'RE WORKING WITH THEM CLOSELY
NOW THOUGH NOT WAITING TO HAVE
THOSE DISCUSSIONS YOU KNOW UNTIL
EVERYTHING SPELLED OUT YOUR SOME
NOW BUT DOING THAT NOW AND
THAT'S A BIG PART OF WHAT THE
DEMONSTRATION SYSTEM ON THE
HOUSE FLOOR. ALTHOUGH.
SOME OF THOSE ARE OR BUSINESS
ARENA AS OPPOSED TO LIFE AND
DEATH
HERE SITUATIONS WILL OH YES COME
OUT WITH THE BEST PRACTICES.
.
I KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS LIST OF
THEM OF THINGS THAT LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS SHOULD CONSIDER S.
LINES ON HOW TO USE YOUR
WHAT YOU UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE
SYSTEM AND HOW DO YOU SEE COULD
BENEFIT YOUR WE CAME OUT WITH
SOME ANALYSIS AND RESULTS AND SO
WE CAN MAKE THAT. AVAILABLE TO
THE COMMITTEE IF YOU'RE
INTERESTED BUT I'M CERTAINLY I'M
WE'VE GOT THAT KIND OF.
ANALYSIS THAT DENNIS CERTAINLY
WILL DO MORE OF THAT AS THE THE
SYSTEM COMES TO FRUITION
REFERRED I I SORT OF JUMPED
AHEAD OF.
.
FINANCE NELLIE OF SALAMI DO THAT
AND I'LL COME BACK TO MY
COLLEAGUE FINANCE ANY COMMENT
BELIAU. YOU MUST HAVE SOMETHING.
OF. WE RECOMMEND THE LEGISLATURE
WITHHOLD ACTION ON THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL PENDING THE
RELEASE OF THE FORTHCOMING
BUSINESS PLAN UP FROM THE OFFICE
OF EMERGENCY SERVICES WHICH WAS
ORIGINALLY DUE UP BEGINNING OF
OPERATE WHICH WHICH HAS BEEN
DELAYED. ARE WITHOUT THIS
BUSINESS PLAN THAT WE BELIEVE
THE LEGISLATURE WILL LACKS KEY
INFORMATION. ARE CONCERNING
SYSTEMS COSTS AS WELL AS.
DIET ANY POTENTIAL AVAILABLE
FUNDING SOURCES THAT WOULD BE
NECESSARY IN ORDER TO DETERMINE
THE MERITS OF THE
ADMINISTRATION'S CURRENT
REQUEST.
BEFORE THAT KEY ACOSTA FUNDING
DETAILS FOR THE SYSTEM THAT ARE
MISSING.
FROM THE CURRENT PROPOSAL.
FOR THE FOUR MAIN CATEGORIES
FIRST
OF THE FULL ARRAY OF EQUIPMENT
THAT WILL BE PROPOSED.
TO OPERATE THE SYSTEM INCLUDING
WHETHER ANY ADDITIONAL A GPS
EMPLOYMENT YOU NOTES WOULD ALSO
NEED TO BE INSTALLED IN ADDITION
TO THE SUCH STATIONS.
A SECOND IT'S ALSO UNCLEAR.
ABOUT WHAT THE TOTAL ONE TIME
AND ONGOING COSTS FOR THE SYSTEM
ARE INCLUDING.
NON PERSONNEL RELATED.
COSTS OF PROCEEDS ACTIVITIES AS
RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT AND
EDUCATION OUTREACH WHAT'S
PREVIOUSLY HAVE ALSO BEEN TOUGH
FUNDED.
AS ONGOING COSTS A THIRD THERE'S
ALSO UNCERTAINTY OVER.
THE AVAILABILITY OF NIGEL FUND
REVENUE SOURCES THAT CAN BE
APPLIED. OUGHT TO THE SYSTEM
INCLUDING FEDERAL FUNDS AS WELL
AS HOW MUCH OFTEN SUPPORT WILL
BE REQUIRED TO COVER THE
REMAINING ONGOING COSTS.
AND FINALLY WE BELIEVE THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION'S TO PROVIDE
LEGISLATURE.
WITH A BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF
THE SPECIFIC OPERATIONAL
RESPONSIBILITIES. OF THE VARIOUS
STAKEHOLDERS SUCH AS THE.
US GEOLOGICAL SURVEY AND AT THE
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA WHICH
WOULD NOT BE ADVISABLE HAS
PREVIOUSLY. US CITED AS.
AND OUTSTANDING KEY STRATEGIC
ISSUES TO ROBERT THAT REMAINS TO
BE RESOLVED.
WELL I KNOW THAT THE REQUEST AS
I UNDERSTAND IT IS FIFTEEN
MILLION ONE TIME.
AND THEN SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY AN
ON GOING.
OH YES ANY RESPONSE TO THIS IS A
HOLD OPEN ITEM BUT JUST ANY
RESPONSE TO THE SUGGESTIN THAT
WE WAIT FOR YOUR BUSINESS PLAN.
WELL WE DO.
WE ARE PUTTING THE FINISHING
TOUCHES WE ARE DELAYED ON THE
BUSINESS PLAN YOU KNOW THAT GOT
A LITTLE BIT.
SIDETRACKED IF YOU WILL DO TO
OUR EXTRAORDINARY RESPONSE AND
DISASTERS THAT WE HAD OF THE
FAULT IS.
SO WHERE WE ARE WE IT WAS WHERE
WE'RE CHARGED WITH CREATING A
BUSINESS PLAN FOR THE SPECIFIC
REASON TO I'M NOT ONLY TO.
TEN PERCENT AT ONE TIME BUT AN
UPDATE ON THAT EACH YEAR AS PART
OF THE LEGISLATION THAT
AUTHORIZED OUR WORK IN THIS AREA
SO WE LOOK FORWARD TO PROVIDING
THAT TO ANSWER THE QUESTIONS OF
YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUTURE LOOKS
LIKE CERTAINLY THAT WITH. THAT
WE UNDERSTAND IMPORTANT
CONSIDERING WHAT'S BEFORE US.
BUT YOU KNOW WE SHOULD WE
SHOULD HAVE THAT ANY TIME IT
SHOULD.
IF IT ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS ON
THAT YOU.
ONGOING.
PLAN FOR OPERATIONS OF THIS YOU
HAVE YOU'VE PROBABLY SEEN OUR NO
ASSIST YOU ANTICIPATE THE
BUSINESS PLAN ADDRESSING THE
FOR.
THE FOUR POINTS THAT WERE MADE.
EQUIPMENT THAT STILL NEEDS TO BE
INSTALLED TOTAL ONE CAUGHT TIME
AN ON GOING COSTS A.
HOW HOW WE INTEND TO FUND THIS
ONE I GUESS GENERAL FUND SOME
OTHER SPECIAL FUND?
AND THE OTHER ISSUE HAVING TO DO
WITH STAKEHOLDERS EXPECT THOSE
TO BE COVERED YES IT YEAH IN
FACT THE.
THAT THE DIRECTIVE TO AS TO
CREATE THIS BUSINESS I WAS
PRETTY PERSPECTIVE PRESCRIPTIVE
AND I'M THOUGHT OUT ABOUT WHAT A
SHOW INFLUENCE THAT LITTLE HAVE
THOSE IN THE PRINTED PERFECT
SEGUE.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR.
AND I I'M INCLINED TO SUPPORT
THIS IN.
BUT I'LL TELL YOU I DO HEAR
FROM CONSTITUENTS ON THIS ISSUE
I KNOW IT PERKS UP THEIR
ATTENTION FOR WHATEVER REASON.
I GUESS COMING FROM THE BAY AREA
BUT I'M.
I THINK AND I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S
GONNA BE ADDRESS IN YOUR
BUSINESS PLAN BUT THE QUESTION
THAT I GET. IS THAT IS THIS GUY
ISN'T THIS REALLY GOING TO GO
BEYOND THE THEORY LIKE YOU GET
TO SECOND NOTICING YOU CAN. IN A
STOP OF OUR TRAIN AND AND THE IT
AS TO THE EXTENT THAT THAT
BUSINESS PLAN I CAN. CAN ADDRESS
THREE PRACTICE PRACTICALLY
THE REAL AT REAL WORLD
APPLICATION.
THIS WORK I THINK YOU'RE GONNA
LEAVE THAT CONSTITUENTS IN.
WORRIED THAT THIS IS THAT THE
RAT WERE SPENDING A LOT OF MONEY
ON THEORY.
WITHOUT REALLY A PRACTICAL
APPLICATION THAT WE CAN AT.
BENEFIT FROM
FOR IT GIVEN THE AMOUNT OF MONEY
AND I THINK I HOPE THAT YOU WILL
TRY TO ADDRESS IT I THINK WILL
HELP. THE GENERAL PUBLIC
UNDERSTAND WHY THIS INVESTMENT
THAT YOU ARE PROPOSING THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED.
THEY'RE ALL GOING TO KNOW WHEN
QUESTIONS ON THIS.
I ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THE.
EARTHQUAKE EARLY WARNING SYSTEM.

ACTIVELY.
PUSHING OUT THAT YOU CAN CALL
THAT ONE ONE VERY QUICKLY OR
SEEN THOSE NUMBERS CONTINUE TO
MOVE FORWARD SO.
.
LOOK FOR ANSWERING QUESTIONS AS
WE MOVE FORWARD BUDGET BEFORE WE
DO THAT.
AND BEFORE YOU GIVE UP THE MIKE.
I UNDERSTAND. INTRASTATE
INTERSTATE THINK I DO.
THE FLAT FEE THAT'S BEING
PROPOSED IN THE TRAILER BILL WE
HAVEN'T SEEN YET BUT. AND I
UNDERSTAND EVERY OCTOBER THE
FEEL BE ADJUSTED WHO JUST TO
FEED.
WASN'T COVERED IN THE ANALYSIS
UP CALAVERAS A MIXED YOU JUST
AND JUST LIKE WE DO NOW.
BASED OFF OF THE NEEDS THAT.
WE SEE FORD WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO
HEAR THEM OF THE FEE UP AND DOWN
BASED OFF OF. ON THE
REQUIREMENTS THAT TO EXIST TO
SUPPORT THE OF THE SYSTEM.
SO THEN WITH THAT PROPOSED
ADJUSTMENT COME BACK TO THE
LEGISLATURE IN THIS BUDGET.
SUBCOMMITTEE OR SOME OTHER.
SUBCOMMITTEE OF THE BUDGET.
OVERALL BUDGET COMMITTEE FOR
REVIEW.
NO WE MAKE A JUST WE DO NOW WE
MAKE A ANNUAL ADJUSTMENTS.
AND HAVE.
FOR.
THE EXISTING METHODOLOGY WAS
USED OUT THERE FROM THE POINT
ZERO ZERO FIVE TWO POINT ZERO
ZERO SEVEN FIVE. THREE QUARTERS
OF ONE PERCENT WAS OUR RANGE AND
WE WOULD SUBMIT THAT. I
ANNUALLY.
FOR.
TO MEET THE NEEDS OF BASED ON
OR WE WERE UNFORTUNATELY THE
METHOD THAT WE COLLECT.
ON ON A DECLINING BASIS.
OF FOR IN TRUSTEE CALLING.
JUST DOESN'T GENERATE THE
REVENUE THAT WE GET ANYMORE SO
IT WAS COMMON.
IF FOR YEARS MANY YEARS THAT.
AS WE WENT FOR WE WOULD SET
THAT RATE BASED ON THE NEEDS WE
HAVE AND MAKE ALL UP AND DOWN.
BASED ON THE AMOUNT OF MONEY WE
HAD THE RESERVE WE DO NEED TO.
TO INCREASE COSTS AND WE WOULD
TRY TO SET.
ONLY TO MEET THE THE CRITICAL
CLIENTS THE NEEDS WE HAVE FOR
WELL I MEAN THE REASON I THE
REASON I ASK IT OBVIOUSLY IT
APPEARS AND SOMEBODY CELLPHONE
BILL DOESN'T.
YES BUT IT'S BUNDLE IN MANY
CASES WHERE IT'S NOT VERY IT'S
NOT VERY EASY FOR A FOR A.
FOR ANY OF US TO REALLY SEE IT
YOU KNOW IT AND ONE FEES ARE
INCLUDED BUT IT'S.
.
USUALLY ATTACHED WITH OTHER FEES
THAT ARE ARE I MEAN.
OFTENTIMES WHEN WE HAVE FEES
FLOATING AROUND WHATEVER THEY
ARE WATER SEWER.
OTHER TELEPHONE TIGHT FEES
PRESUMABLY THERE'S SOME ENTITY
THAT'S REVIEWING THOSE WHETHER
IT'S YOUR CITY COUNCIL OR YOUR
P. YOU SEE WERE.
SOMETHING.
.
I'M NOT CERTAIN WE OFTEN SEE
MAYBE WE DO A A GOVERNMENT.
DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY SETTING A
FEE AND ADJUSTING IT.
WITHOUT ANY SORT OF REVIEW SO
I'M JUST CURIOUS AS TO HOW THAT
WORKS BECAUSE THIS IS SOMETHING
PAID BY CONSUMERS ISN'T.
IT IS SUB PAID BY THE CONSUMERS
AND ALL OF THE SERB PAY WHEN WE
ARE A SUBSCRIBER AND WHEN YOU
SAW A SYSTEM THAT IS DESIGNED
FOR THEM. ARMY WE DO SEND THAT
FOUR WE DO POST.
THAT INFORMATION TO HAND HAND
TO THE BOARD OF EQUALIZATION
FORM PART OF ME SESSION WHEN.
THAT'S TAX AND FEE OF AN IRISH
TEXAN FEE. AND.
WE POST THAT INFORMATION TO A
PUBLIC AND THEN OF COURSE DURING
AND I WONDER VICE REPORT WE
COVER AND AT WHICH IS OPEN TO
PUBLIC WE COVER. IN DETAIL
EXACTLY WHERE WE ARE AND ARE
REGISTRY AND OUR EXPENSES AND
WORK COST ARE AND SO IT'S VERY
TRANSPARENT TO THE TO THE PUBLIC
WITH THEM. ON IT.
WELL I GUESS.
I DON'T KNOW THAT I'LL BE AROUND
BUT YEAH SINCE BOTH OF THOSE.
SINCE YOU AND OF TAX
ACHIEVEMENTS DURATION HAVE TO
COME IN HERE PERIODICALLY FOR
BUDGET CONVERSATIONS I JUST HAVE
TO REMEMBER IF I'M HERE TO.
ASKED THE QUESTION ABOUT HER FEE
AND I SUPPOSE THAT'S THE ITEM OF
REVIEW.
OKAY.
THANK YOU I DON'T MEAN TO CUT
YOU UP SIR RIGHT.
I AM SO I WAS JUST GONNA GIVE IT
A SHORT OVERVIEW OF THE
TECHNOLOGY WE UNDERSTAND THIS IS
COMPLEX.
AND SO YOU'VE GOTTA A COUPLE OF
GRAPHICS IN FRONT OF YOU THAT
THAT WE'VE WE HOPE WILL HELP
YOU.
CAN TO CONNECT THE DOTS ON THE
TECHNOLOGY THESE TERMS ARE
SOMETIMES INTERCHANGED AND WE
WANT TO MAKE SURE IT'S VERY
CLEAR YOU KNOW WHAT WHAT WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT. WHEN WE SAY NEXT
GENERATION I WANT
SO THE IN THE DIAGRAM YOU HAVE
IN FRONT OF YOUNEXT GENERATION
I ONE IS THAT UPPER LEFT HAND
CORNER. IT'S REALLY FOCUSED ON
PROVIDING THE ABILITY FOR THOSE
THAT NEED HELP.
TO SEND DATA AND VOICE INTO A
PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING POINTS.
THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINT IS THAT LINKAGE PIECE
THAT THEN INTERCONNECTS WITH THE
EMERGENCY RESPONDERS THAT ARE
PROVIDING THE HELP.
AND SO THEY DO THAT IT A COUPLE
OF WAYS TODAY. A DOWN OF THE
BOTTOM PORTION OF YOUR DIAGRAM
YOU SEE LAND MOBILE RADIO AS TO
PUSH TO TALK RADIO IS THAT
YOU'RE PROBABLY FAMILIAR WITH
AND YOU'VE SEEN. AND THOSE LINK
UP AND PROVIDE MISSION CRITICAL
VOICE CAT CONNECTIVITY OUT TO
EMERGENCY RESPONDERS.
THE OTHER BUBBLE AND KIND OF THE
CENTER OF THE CHART THERE IS IS
CALLED FIRST NATTER OR BROADBAND
SERVICES.
THE PRIMARY FOCUS OF THAT PIECE.
IS TO SEND THE DATA THAT WOULD
COME IN.
TO THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINT THROUGH COMPUTER AIDED.
DISPATCH OUT TO THE EMERGENCY
RESPONDERS SO YOU CAN TO SEE HOW
NEXT JAN IS RESPONSIBLE TO BRING
THE INFORMATION INTO THE PUBLIC
SAFETY ANSWERING POINT FROM
THOSE THAT NEED HELP.
AND THEN THE LINK HAPPENS THERE
THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINTS FIRST THAT WOULD TAKE
THAT DATA OUT INTO THE THE FIELD
WHERE THE EMERGENCY SPOTTER
WOULD NEED IT. AS WHETHER SUCH A
CRITICAL CONNECTION BETWEEN
THESE TWO TECHNOLOGY BETWEEN
FIRST MET. IN NEXT YEAR NINE ONE
ONE.
DOWN ALONG THE BOTTOM OF THE
DIAGRAM IS IS OVERTON WARNINGS
AND I KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF
ACTIVITY LEGISLATIVELY ON THAT.
ONE TO SHOW THIS ON THE GRAPHIC
TO LET YOU KNOW THAT ALERT
WARNING DOES NOT TRAVERSED NEXT
AND NINE ONE ONE IN YOU KNOW
BACKWARDS.
THIS THAT'S NOT THE WAY IT WORKS
IT FOLLOWS A DIFFERENT PATH OUT
TO ON DIVERT DOES THAT ARE OUT
THERE TO RECEIVE THE ALERTS AND
WARNINGS.
THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF THIS
GRAPHIC.
THE NEXT PAGE JUST REALLY
HIGHLIGHTS.
HOW FIRST THAT AND NEXT YEAR
NINE ONE NEED TO BE CONNECTED
AND THAT INTEGRATION HAPPENS AT
THE NEXT AND I WANT CALL CENTER
OF THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINT?
SO NEXT GEN I'M ONENESS FOCUSING
ON THE ABILITY TO TO BRING THOSE
DATA RICH RESOURCES WHETHER BE
TAX VIDEO OR ARE OTHER TYPES OF
APPLICATIONS.
INTO THE PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINTS.
MAKE THE CONNECTION WITH FIRST
MATTER SOME TYPE OF BROADBAND
SERVICE TO THEN DELIVER THAT
DATA OUT TO THE EMERGENCY
RESPONDER OUT INTO THE FIELD
WHICH IS SHOWN ON THE RIGHT PART
OF THE.
OF THE GRAPHIC THERE.
SO THAT'S REALLY HOW DISCONNECT
TECH TECHNOLOGIES ARE CONNECTED
TOGETHER ONE DAY.
AND HELP MAKE THE DISTINCTION
BECAUSE WE KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF
US OUT TERMS HERE.
THE NEXT GRAPH WAS REALLY
FOCUSED ON ON ONTO YOUR POINT
MISTER CHAIRMAN THE INTEREST
STATE VOICE REVENUE.
WE'VE SEEN A STEADY DECLINE OF
ABOUT SIX PERCENT PER YEAR.
PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE PORTION OF
YOUR WIRELESS BILL.
THAT GOES TOWARD INTRASTATE
VOICE IS DECLINING.
OUR DATA PORTION OF YOUR WHY
THIS BILL MAY BE GOING UP BUT
WHAT WHAT YOU'RE PAYING FOR
INTERSTATE VOICE IS GOING DOWN.
THAT BRINGS OUR REVENUE STREAM
DOWN BECAUSE THAT REVENUE IS
GETTING LESS AND LESS.
ARE THREE QUARTERS OF ONE
PERCENT THAT WE COLLECT NOW. UP
WE'RE SEEING A STEADY DECLINE OF
ABOUT SIX PERCENT THAT WE'VE
SEEN THAT.
GOING BACK AS FAR TWENTY ELEVEN
ON THIS GRAPH AN EVEN EARLIER.
AND THAT TREND CONTINUES OF THIS
THIS LAST YEAR WE SAW GO DOWN
ANOTHER SIX PERCENT WE DON'T SEE
THAT CHANGING IN ANY WAY SO
WITHOUT SOME LEGISLATIVE ACTION
TO SET THE FUND. WILL NO LONGER
HAVE THE REVENUE NOT ONLY TO
SUPPORT NEXT GEN BUT EVEN OUR
EXISTING NETWORK TODAY.
WE DON'T BRING IN ENOUGH REVENUE
TO SUPPORT THE EXISTING NINE ONE
NETWORK.
SO IT'S THESE THESE TECHNOLOGIES
WOULD DEFINITELY WANT TO MOVE
FORWARD BUT ABSENT LEGISLATIVE
ACTION WE CAN'T EVEN MAINTAIN
WHAT WE HAVE.
WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT'S CLEAR.
THE NEXT PLAN IS AS.
SLIDE IS MITCH THAT.
WE DO HAVE A VERY COMPLEX NEXT
AND I WANTED THE DEPLOYMENT PLAN
IN PLACE.
WE'VE VETTED THAT THROUGH ALL
OF OUR PUBLIC SAFETY ANSWERING
POINTS TO THE NINE ONE ADVISORY
BOARD THE ASSOCIATIONS THAT WE
WORK WITH WE MET WITH THE
SERVICE PROVIDERS THAT ARE GOING
TO EVENTUALLY PROVIDE THIS
SERVICE TO MAKE SURE OUR PLAN.
IS I CAN BE REALIZED CAN BE
EXECUTED AND THIS TIMELINE THAT
YOU SEE HERE IS REALLY DEPEND
UPON.
THE FOR THE FUNDING BEING IN
PLACE SO THAT'S WHY I PUT SOME
DATES AND READ THEIR.
IF IF THE LEGISLATIVE ACTION
DOES SUPPORTED IN THE STATES I
HAVE TO CHANGE AS WE MOVE
FORWARD.
SO WITH THAT WILL I'M HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT
HAVE ON ON.
NEXT A NINE ONE OR REALLY
ANYTHING.
WELL I I KNOW WHAT OF THIS FLAT
FEE THING TO DEATH BUT HA HA
YOU'RE GOING FROM A SYSTEM WHERE
I GUESS YOU'RE.
THE THE IS THE CONSUMER THE
CONSUMERS WILL.
PAYMENT WILL VARY DEPENDING ON
OF A DEVICE FOR EXAMPLE YOU'RE
MOVING FOR. IS THAT RIGHT WHAT
SORT OF UNMITIGATED TODAY THAT'S
THE MOTTO Y. SAID ON THE NUMBER
OF REVENUE I JUST AND MOVING
FORWARD THAT WOULD BE A FLAT FEE
MANAGED AND SO YOU'RE GOING FROM
ONE WHERE. SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T
USE MUCH DOESN'T PAY MUCH.
AND SOMEONE IN THE NEW CASE THE
NEW MODEL WILL PAY WHAT
EVERYBODY PAYS THE SAME.
YES AND THIS MODEL WAS THE SAME
THAT'S.
BEEN DEVELOPED IN EVERY STATE
WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THREE. US
BEING ONE OF THE THREE.
I AND THE PROPOSED STARTING
POINT FOR THAT FLAT FEE THAT
WE'RE PROPOSING IS THE THIRD
LOWEST IN THE NATION.
SO SO WHY NOT WHY NOT HAVE A
SYSTEM WHERE YOU'RE PAYING BASED
ON USE IN PART.
AND IF YOU NEED TO SUPPLEMENT
TO GO TO SOME FLAT FEE THAT
SUPPLEMENTS SO THE FOLKS THAT
USE MORE EVEN THOUGH IT'S
DECLINING.
PAY MORE AND.
YOU ADD SOMETHING ON TOP BECAUSE
IT'S INSUFFICIENT AND EVERYBODY
WANTS A SYSTEM THAT WORKS RIGHT
I THINK WE QUESTION YES SIR IT
IS AND WE LOOKED AT THAT.
AND THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS
YOU YOU'RE PUTTING IN A STATUTE.
A DIRECT LINKAGE TO A
TECHNOLOGY
SO AS TECHNOLOGY CHANGES AND
USAGES MAY CHANGE ASSOCIATED
WITH THAT TECHNOLOGY WILL
EVENTUALLY END UP IN THE SAME
PLACE WE ARE NOW.
WHERE WE'VE ATTACHED A FLAT FEE
TO A TECHNOLOGY THAT CHANGES
INTRASTATE VOICE IN TODAY'S
CASE?
SO WE WERE LOOKING FOR A
SUSTAINABLE FUNDING MODEL THAT
REGARDLESS OF TECHNOLOGY WOULD
SUPPORT THE NINE ONE ONE SYSTEM.
TEN TWENTY THIRTY YEARS FROM NOW
SO WE DON'T HAVE TO COME BACK
BEFORE YOU AND SAY.
MEMBER FIVE YEARS AGO WE WERE
ASKING FOR SOME FINDING WHAT WE
NEED TO CHANGE THE WAY WE'RE
COLLECTING THAT WELL THAT WAS
OUR GOAL AND I SUPPOSE. WE'LL
HAVE THIS DEBATE BECAUSE AT SOME
POINT TRAILER BILL HAVE TO BE IT
WILL HAVE IT WILL SURFACE AND.
EITHER IN THIS OMMITTEE WHERE
THE BIG COMMITTEE WILL HAVE A
CONVERSATION ABOUT THAT SO I
DON'T WANT TO BEAT IT TO DEATH.
.
MOVED BY ASKING IF I GO AND
THEREBY DONE ROUND ROBIN
FINANCE.
HOW ABOUT YOU?
WHICH I WOULD BERMAN OF AUDIENCE
I HAVE NOTHING TO ADD.
LEO.
WE HAVE NO ADDITIONAL COMMENT AT
THIS TIME PERFECT COLLEAGUES.
SENATOR GLAZERS.
I DID IT WOULDN'T LET ME DO WELL
AT THAT IT'S A GOOD CONVERSATION
AN IMPORTANT ONE THAT. YOU MADE
REFERENCE SAID AT WORK THAT'S
HAPPENING OTHER STATES IN
IMPLEMENTING THIS NEXT GEN NINE
ONE ONE.
I SOUNDED LIKE WE WERE AT THAT
WERE LAST YEAR HER THIRD FROM
LAST WEEK I WROTE MY HEARING
THAT CORRECTLY.
AND KNOWS.
SO WHAT PLEDGES REFERRING TO IS
THAT ARE. UNDER THE PROPOSED.
GREAT THAT WE'VE SET FOR TRAILER
BILL FOR FLAT FEE THAT WE'RE
LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW WE'RE GONNA
BE ARE AMONG THE AT THE.
A LOS TO AND NATION OF FOUR THAT
I WORK COSTS HARPER'S ACOSTA AND
THAT WERE SITTING ON OUR HONORED
FEES BECAUSE WE WOULDN'T WANT TO
SEE EXACTLY HOWEVER THERE STATE
WAS.
CHARGING ON WHAT THEY WERE
DOING WHAT MODELS.
WITH THINGS THAT WERE.
.
LESSONS LEARNED A LESSON LEARNED
IS PART OF OUR CONSIDERATION WE
WERE DEMONS HIGHER TRAILER BILL
DEVELOPMENT.
AND THEN.
.
AND SO RIGHT NOW WERE WERE ONLY
THERE'S ONLY THREE OF US THAT
HAVE NOT.
CHANGE IS FLATTERING MODEL SO
THAT'S THE OTHER PART IT'S
APPROVED. SO NOT TALK ABOUT THE
TECHNOLOGY IN RELATIONSHIP TO
OUR ADVANCEMENT VIS A VIS OTHER
STATES.
DO YOU. ARE AYE SO I
CALIFORNIA'S DEATHLY PLAYING A
LEAD ROLE IN NEXT AND NINE ONE
SO THERE ARE A COUPLE OF STATES.
MASSACHUSETTS BEING ONE
OBVIOUSLY BUT NOT NOT THE SAME
SCALE WAS CALIFORNIA.
WHOSE.
PRETTY ACTIVELY DOWN THAT THE
NEXT GEN NINE ONE MAIN IS PRETTY
FAR ALONG INDIANA IS PRETTY FAR
ALONG. AND WE'RE RIGHT THERE
WITH THEM SO WHAT MOST OTHER
STATES
HAVE EITHER SOME LOCALIZED NEXT
GEN NINE ONE DEPLOYMENTS BUT NO
STATEWIDE MODELS ABOUT TEXAS BE
IN ONE PLACE WHERE THEY OF ARE.
THE COUNCIL OF GOVERNMENTS THAT
THEY'VE BROKEN THEIR STATE UP
INTO SMALLER CHUNKS
SOME OF THOSE SMALLER PIECES
HAVE MOVED FORWARD. OTHERS
HAVEN'T AND SO IT'S QUITE OFTEN
THAT WE.
THAT ME THAT I ENGAGE WITH NINE
ONE ADMINISTRATORS FOR OTHER
STATES AND SHARE WITH THEM OUR
LESSONS LEARNED AND HOW WE
DEVELOPED OUR PLAN. HOW WE'VE%
ENGAGED WITH OUR STAKEHOLDERS
AND HOW WE'VE ENGAGE WITH
INDUSTRY SEWER DEFTLY PLAYING A
LEAD ROLE IN THIS SPACE GREAT
I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT AND? WE
HAD A DISCUSSION A LITTLE WHILE
AGO ABOUT.
MODERN
FUTURE VOTE.
CENTERS AND THEN THE REST AND.
AND WHETHER WE'RE.
REALLY USING OUR TECHNOLOGY TO
THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY FOR THE
BENEFIT OF OUR STATE I DON'T
MIND THE FLAT FEE MODEL.
I'VE AT.
I THINK THAT THAT THE THE KEY
HERE'S WHERE WE'RE MAKING
ACCESSIBLE TO ALL OF OUR. OUR
OUR. POPULATION.
HIS EMERGENCY TECHNOLOGY THAT
BENEFITS EVERYBODY WHAT THE USE
IT ONCE OR YOU NEVER USE IT AND
SO THE IDEA OF TRYING TO.
APPLY THAT FAIRLY ACROSS THE
BOARD NOT BASED ON USAGE TO ME
SEEMS A LITTLE BIT MORE
ATTRACTIVE THIS ONE MEMBERS
THOUGHTS ON.
SO.
STEP PROVIDE THAT REINFORCEMENT.
THANK YOU I PERSON AT ONE THING
IF I COULD SIR. THE IN THE. THE
OTHER PIECE OF SCRAPPING IS
THERE SOME.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS
LOOKING REALLY CLOSELY AND THEY
WANT US TO THEY WANT THE STATE'S
MOVE FORWARD IN NEXT AND I WANT
ONE.
ASSUMING WE DO GET THE A GRANT
IS.
COVERED IN PUSHED OUT FROM THE
FEDERAL LEVEL.
A WE WOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO
EXECUTE IT WOULD HAVE SPENDING
AUTHORITY TO TAKE IT THERE SO
THIS KIND OF GO HAND IN HAND
EVEN IF HERE'S MONEY. THERE'S
DISCUSSION RIGHT NOW THAT THE
FEDERAL LEVEL ABOUT COMING
FORWARD MONEY ON SO IF WE DON'T
HAVE IT. RIGHT NOW.
YOU KNOW WE CAN ONLY EXCUSE TO
LOG BASED ON THE REVENUE WERE
JERRY WITHIN SANTA.
SO REGARDLESS WHERE THE THE
THRESHOLD SAID THE CRESTING NOW.
WE CAN'T SUPPORT I CAN'T STAND
IT SO WE CAN ONLY GO AS FAR AS.
.
THE STORY THAT YOU PROVIDED TO
US DRIVE SURE WE HAVE PLENTY OF
OPPORTUNITIES TO HAVE
CONVERSATIONS ON THESE ISSUES SO
LOOK FORWARD.
I ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS.

IT OUT TO WHERE WORKS FOR ALL
THE STAKEHOLDERS IN.
WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING
THAT.
YES SIR GOOD AFTERNOON.
JEFF MASTON WITH A CALIFORNIA
FIRE CHIEFS ASSOCIATION AND DE
RISK WHICH IS A COALITION OF OUR
FIRE SERVICE LEADERSHIP.
A MISTER CHAIRMAN MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE A WE'RE HERE TO
SUPPORT OAS AND OTHER THINGS
THAT HAVE BROUGHT FORWARD AND WE
KNOW THAT THIS YEAR IN THE
BUDGET LOOKS LIKE THAT PARA
GENERAL FUND. I TAKE WILL BE A
LITTLE LESSON.
IT HAS BEEN IN THE PAST.
WE ALSO ARE GOING TO BE ASKING
FOR A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.
FOR PRE POSITIONING A LAST YEAR
WE LEARNED QUITE A BIT AND WE
KNOW THAT ARE MUTUALLY SYSTEM
NEEDS TO BE UPDATED CERTAINLY
ARE NINE ONE ONE SYSTEM NEEDS TO
BE UPDATED.
THAT EARTHQUAKE SENSOR ALSO
BUILDS INTO THE FOLD OF WHAT WE
IN YOUR CALIFORNIA FAR SERVICE
DOES FOR YOU SO WE ARE
SUPPORTIVE OF THIS AND WE HOPE
THAT YOU HAVE TO CONSIDER THAT.
AS YOU DELIBERATE.
pYOU DO FOR ALL OF US IS YOU
KNOW
SOME OF THE SOME OF.
YOUR REQUESTS AND ONLY S.
REQUESTS COME HERE SOME OF THEM
GO TO OTHER. BUDGET SUB
COMMITTEES.
UNFORTUNATE I LIKE TO HEAR THEM

WE'LL LOOK FORWARD TO LOOKING
INSURERS AND AGAIN THANK YOU FOR
WHAT YOU DO THANK YOU CENTER.
THIS IS HOLD OPEN WILL HOLD IT
OPEN AND APPRECIATE YOU ALL
COMING TO PRESENT.
THANK YOU MISTER.
OKAY LET'S.
TAKE A ITEM EIGHT SIX TWO ZERO
F. PPC ISSUES ONE AND TWO IF
ANYONE IS HERE TO.
HAVE A CONVERSATION WITH MY
COLLEAGUES ON THAT POINT.
FOR THOSE POINTS.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR THOSE OF YOU
WHO HAVE THE PLAYBOOK WE'RE
LOOKING AT PAGES ELEVEN AND
TWELVE.
ON THE AGENDA.
IN THE ANALYSIS IF YOU HAVE A.
OKAY THANK YOU FOR JOINING US IF
I COULD ASK YOU TO IDENTIFY
YOURSELF SERVICE DURING MY LAST
YEAR RIGHT MA'AM.
W. ANNA AFTERNOON. RITUALLY IT
IS. JUST TRYING TO.
LARISSA HAN AND THE CHIEF OF AN
END OF AT THE OF PETE
YOU SEE SOMETHING IN RETURN FOR
A FONG LEGISLATIVE DIRECTOR FOR
THEIR PHOEBE SAID HE'S.
OKAY.
YES I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
THERE WAS NO ISSUE ONE.
I'M HAPPY HAPPY TO HAVE YOU GO
DIRECTLY TO YOUR QUESTION.
I THINK YOU TO THE CHAIR OF THE
COMMITTEE FOR PULLING THIS FROM
THE VOTE. ONLY TO HAVE A
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE A LITTLE BIT
OF A CONVERSATION THAT.
THE DATE THAT I CERTAINLY
APPRECIATE THE IMPORTANT WORK
THAT THE FEC AYE AGES AND. I.
AND THE. THE CHALLENGE THAT I
HAD LOOKING AT THESE INDIVIDUAL
REQUESTS AND AND AND ISOLATION
WE DON'T SEEM LIKE AN
UNREASONABLE UNREASONABLE
REQUESTS.
.
BUT THE CHALLENGE THAT I HAD WAS
TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THE SCOPE
OF. THE WORK THAT YOU DO TO
COMMUNICATE AND TO ENFORCE.
IN IN THIS AREA WE OBVIOUSLY I.
HEAR A LOT OF FEEDBACK ABOUT THE
WORK OF THE AT PPC AND. I'M A
FIND OF READER OF YOUR AGENDAS.
AND COME OUT INTO.
AND.
AND AND ALL OF US SAID THAT ARE
IN THIS ARENA HAVE BEEN SUBJECT
TO THE REGULAR AUDITS IN REVIEW
AND OVERSIGHT THAT GO ON IN
THAT.
THAT'S GOOD.
.
BUT WHAT I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET
FROM THIS SPECIFIC THAT YOU KIND
OF IDENTIFY A PROBLEM IN REGARD
TO NEW LEGISLATION. WHAT I DON'T
GET A SENSE OF ARE AT THE?
THAT THE SCOPE OF ALL THE WORK
THAT YOU DO DO.
YOU KNOW HOW MANY CALLS FOR
ADVICE TO YOU GET HOW MANY
REQUESTS FOR WRITTEN OPINIONS.
DO YOU GET.
.
HOW MANY COMMITTEES AND
CANDIDATES ARE OUT THERE AND
IT'S BEEN GROWING OR SHRINKING?
HAVE THE FINES THAT HAVE BEEN
ASSESSED OVER TIME THAT THEY'VE
BEEN GROWING OR THEY'VE BEEN
SHRINKING THE CASES GROWING
SHRINKING.
.
AND AND IN PARTICULAR I'D BE
INTERESTED IN HEARING.
THAT WHILE YOU'RE ASKING FOR THE
SPECIFIC TO BUDGET CHANGES ARE
THERE OTHERS THAT YOU'VE ASKED
FOR THAT THAT THAT THAT THAT
LEAST ADMINISTRATION STOP AND
WILLING TO ADVANCE.
FOR THOSE OF THE BROAD BREATH TO
THE QUESTIONS THAT I'VE ASKED
ME.
AND DIRECTED ME TO ASK FOR THIS
TIME TO HAVE THIS CONVERSATION.
ADAM. SO.
I'LL TAKE. TYPE FROM THE
QUESTION THAT YOU HAD SO YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT A FREE HAVE CALLED
NUMBER OF CALLS A NUMBER ADVICE
REQUESTED WE RECEIVE. AND WE DO
HAVE CLOSER TO STICK ON A
WEBSITE AND WITH THE EXPLANATION
ON SOME OF THE LEGISLATION AND
REQUEST WE HAVE. FROM THE BCP.
AND WE ACTUALLY HAVE BEEN SEEN
INCREASE OF COTTON THE LAST
COUPLE MONTHS
SINCE THE.
ADOPTION OF THE ROOM.
LET.
BUT.
LEGISLATION THAT'S MEN PLACE
AND I.
BELIEVE THERE HAS BEEN AT LEAST
TEN PERCENT. UP UPTAKE ON THE
CALL AND THE LEAGUE LEADER LEASE
ON ADVICE CALL FROM AND SB FORTY
FIVE AND A DRAMATIC INCREASE
FROM SP TWO FORTY NINE.
SO I AM LOOKING FOR SOME
SPECIFIC FACTS
I AND I JUST GIVE SOME EXAMPLES
OF THAT WITH THAT THAT THE
CUSTOMER SERVICE WORK THAT YOU
DO. BUT I AM INTERESTED IN THE
AND UNDERSTANDING THE STRANDS
AND AND AND TERMS OF YOUR
WORKLOAD.
SO.
HE TOUCHED UPON A LITTLE BIT
BUT I'M ASKING FOR THE MUCH MORE
COMPREHENSIVE THAT YEAH AT AND
THANK YOU FOR THOSE QUESTIONS
SENATOR.
WE ACTUALLY JUST RELEASED.
OUR MOST RECENT ANNUAL REPORT
THAT INCLUDES A LOT OF THOSE
STATISTICS ON HABIT I DROP ONE
OFFER YOUR OFFICE AND IF NEEDED
WE CAN NOW BE FOR STAFFING
YOURSELF IN PERSON.
I BELIEVE LAST YEAR IN TOTAL WE.
ANSWERED.
I WANT TO SAY BETWEEN FIFTEEN TO
SEVENTEEN THOUSAND CALLS AND
EMAILS.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA IN REGARDS TO ALL YOU
KNOW WHETHER IT'S CAMPAIGNS TO
LOBBYING TO OUR FORM SEVEN
HUNDREDS.
AND SO IT'S AROUND THAT AMOUNT
AND THEN.
TWENTY HOW MANY ADVICE LETTERS
THAT WE CRAFT A YEAR BUT IT'S.
IT'S ABOUT A HUNDRED FIFTY TO
TWO HUNDRED A YEAR.
IT OBVIOUSLY GETS BUSIER DURING.
ELECTION TIME ON CAMPAIGN YEARS
FOR FOLKS ARE A THING ABOUT
RUNNING ADS ON WE EXPECT ABOUT
TAKE THIS YEAR AS CAMPAIGNS.
ARE PLANNING TO.
.
HOPEFULLY COMPLY WITH THE NEW
DISCLOSE ACT.
AND THE INTO COMPLEXITIES THAT
DEAL WITH ADD DISCLAIMERS ON THE
TO BRAND NEW.
SCHEME THAT'S BEEN ADOPTED.
AND REPLACES THE SCHEME THAT'S
BEEN IN PLACE FOR TWENTY YEARS
PART OF THAT.
SO BUT I GOOD THAT'S ALL HELPFUL
AND I'M INTERESTED IN THAT
INFORMATION THAT YOU OUT WILL
PROVIDE THAT. BUT WITH GOOD FOR
EXAMPLE AT WHAT'S THAT DOES HELP
WHAT'S THE WAIT TIME TO GET
ADVICE LETTER TODAY AND WHAT WAS
IT A YEAR AGO OR FIVE YEARS AGO
HIGH. IT'S SOMEONE'S UNDER
STRESS SINCE TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND HOW TO CONDUCT
THEMSELVES APPROPRIATELY AND
THAT'S ALL I DON'T AND SOME
CASES WHAT. THAT ADVICE CALL IT
COMES OUT OF AN AND THE REQUEST
BECAUSE OF MY UNDERSTAND IS WHEN
YOU'VE AT LEAST CALL.
BUT THEY SAY HERE'S OUR THOUGHT
THINGS I THOUGHT ABOUT IT BUT
NEED THIS IS NOT SOMETHING YOU
CAN GO TO THE BANK UNLESS YOU
GET ADVICE LETTER RIGHT. TURN.
TAG CREATES A LOT OF ANXIETY BY
CANDIDATES IN OFFICE HOLDERS IN
TERMS OF DOING THE RIGHT THING
SO YOU HAVE METRICS ON HOW. HOW
RESPONSIVE YOU HAVE BEEN?
OVER TIME AND GETTING ADVICE
LETTERS OUT AS AN EXAMPLE.
I HAVE TO CHECK WITH OUR LEGAL
DIVISION ON THAT.
I'M NOT SURE THAT.
GAL CHECK WITH THEM TO GET THE
SPECIFIC STATS TO YOUR OFFICE A
SENATOR.
I KNOW THAT.
AS YOU MENTION INFORMAL ADVICE
IS WHAT WE CALL OUR OFFICE IS
WHEN THEY CALL AND OR THE SENATE
EMAIL OF THAT ADVICE IS USUALLY
TURNED AROUND WITHIN FORTY EIGHT
HOURS BUT AS YOU MENTIONED
THERE'S NO IMMUNITY THAT COMES
WITH THAT.
PARTLY BECAUSE OF.
THAT THE STATUTE THAT SAYS WHEN
IMMUNITY IS GRANTED THROUGH
FORMAL ADVICE.
AND FORMAL OF ICE LETTERS CAN
RANGE DEPENDING ON THE
COMPLEXITY OF THE QUESTION
SOMETIMES WE GET VERY COMPLEX
QUESTIONS FROM LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS.
THAT DEAL WITH SEVERAL TYPES OF
PROPERTIES THAT THAT COUNCIL
MEMBER MAY OWN AND THE TYPE OF
REAL ESTATE AND COMMERCIAL
PROPERTY. THAT THEY'RE GOING TO
BE VOTING ON AND THAT CAN TAKE.
WEEKS FOR US TO EXAMINE BECAUSE
SOMETIMES WE GET RELATIVELY EASY
QUESTIONS THAT THAT WE CAN TURN
AROUND AND AND.
PRETTY GOOD SKIP AND THEN YOU
HAVE THE WHOLE AREA OF
ENFORCEMENT.
FOR SOMEONE WHO'S A PLANES ABOUT
SOMETHING THAT THEY THINK IT'S
BEEN DONE IMPROPERLY. MORE
ILLEGALLY AND THE ABILITY TO YOU
TO BE ON TOP OF THAT AND IN A
TIMELY WAY.
TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND IT SAID
YOU HAVE STATISTICS ON HOW. A
PROMPT YOU HAVE BEEN AND
ENFORCEMENT REQUEST YOUR
COMPLAINTS FILED
BUT ABOUT THE NUMBER NECESSARILY
BUT YOUR ABILITY TO BE
RESPONSIVE.
LAST I HEARD FROM OUR
ENFORCEMENT STAFF IS.
.
OVER NINETY PERCENT OF OUR CASES
ARE SOLVED WITH ANY YEAR.
AND THE TIMELINESS OF THE
SOLVING OUR CASES IS OF HUGE
IMPORTANCE OF OUR STUFF THAT'S
WHAT WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO EXPAND
WHAT COLOR STREAMLINED PROGRAM.
IN WHICH THERE ARE CERTAIN
OCCASIONS.
AND ELEMENTS TO OF VIOLATION
THAT WE ROLL THROUGH A
STREAMLINED PROGRAM THAT DOESN'T
INVOLVE US GROWING OUT AN ENTIRE
INVESTIGATION. OF THAT COULD
TAKE.
THAT COULD TAKE MONTHS.
INTO THE STREAM MY PROGRAM I
THINK HAS HELPED.
US GET THROUGH A NUMBER OF
CASES.
THE EACH YEAR AND AND I THINK
THE COMMISSION IS CURRENTLY
REVIEWING THE STREAM Y. PRO TO
SEE HOW THEY CAN EXPAND THAT.
TOM BUT THERE ARE SOME CASE I'M
SORRY SENATOR UNKNOWN I DON'T A
LOT YOU FINISH AND THEN I WANT
TO MAKE A ARE. YOU JUST FOUND
BUT THERE ARE SOME CASES IN
WHICH.
THAT ARE VERY COMPLEX
ESPECIALLY THOSE THAT DEAL WITH
MONEY LAUNDERING.
OR OR GIVING IN THE NAME OF
ANOTHER THAT REQUIRES US TO
REALLY A SPEND TIME DIGGING
THROUGH.
DOCUMENTS EMAILS.
POSSIBLE COMMUNICATIONS AND AND
I HEARING TESTIMONY FROM PEOPLE
TO FIGURE OUT WHETHER OR NOT
THEY.
THAT BREAK THE LAW THROUGH THEIR
ACTIONS SO ME MAKE A SUGGESTION
AND THEN.
I CAN BE OVERRULED.
BY MY COLLEAGUE.
WHY DON'T YOU MAKE SURE THAT THE
MEMBERS OF THIS SUBCOMMITTEE GET
A COPY OF YOUR ANNUAL REPORT
ABSOLUTELY?
WHY I LET ME SUGGEST THAT?
THAT MY COLLEAGUES CRITICALLY
CENTER GLAZER.
IF YOU HAVE THE TIME OR.
TWO OF PHRASE SOME VERY SPECIFIC
QUESTIONS THAT GO BACK TO.
THE COMMISSION.
BUT I WOULD EXPECT.
YOU WOULD RESPOND TO.
PROVIDE THE REST OF US WITH A
RESPONSE.
AND THEN IF THOSE ARE EITHER
UNSATISFACTORY THE RESPONSES.
ROUGHLY THE QUESTIONS AREN'T.
.
AND OR MORE DISCUSSION NEEDS TO
BE HEAD.
THEN LET'S SCHEDULE THIS FOR A.
A MORE THOROUGH.
AND BRIEFED SESSION OF THE
SUBCOMMITTEE.
BEFORE WE GET THROUGH THE BUDGET
PROCESS THIS YEAR SOMEHOW.
AND THAT WAY. SIR WORK AND I
CAN. GET OURSELVES UP TO SPEED
AND HURRIEDLY PARTICIPATE IN THE
CONVERSATION IF WE CHOOSE TO DO
SO WITH THAT MAKE SENSE OF THE I
I THINK THAT'S A CONCERN VERY
GOOD CONSTRUCTIVE SUGGESTION AND
I WOULD ASK THAT IS A PART OF
THAT THAT THE ANALYSTS.
TAKE A LOOK AT THAT DECIDED ON
THE LAST TIME WE HAD AT AN
ANALYSTS REVIEW OF THE ACT PPC.
AND THERE ARE IT PERFORMANCE AND
RESPONSIVENESS.
I TO ADD TO THE WORK THAT THEY
DO BUT I REALLY THINK THAT THESE
ARE VERY SENSITIVE AREAS FOR US
APPEAR SO AND TO OUR STATE AND
WE GET A LOT OF FEEDBACK ABOUT
IT AND.
AND I DON'T WANT OF MY
ENGAGEMENT IN THIS CONVERSATION
BE SEEN AS ANYTHING EXCEPT.
DOING WHAT WE WHAT I DO WITH THE
ANY OTHER AGENCY OF STATE
GOVERNMENT. IN TERMS OF TRYING
UNDERSTAND WORKLOAD AND
RESPONSIVENESS.
AND SEE IT NOT JUST IN
ISOLATION IN A BUDGET REQUESTS
RIGHT AUGMENTATION BUT OVER
TIME.
AND I DON'T WANT THE LAST AND
WE'VE HAD IT'S LIKE I SUPPORT
THAT THE CHAIRMAN'S SUGGESTION
AND. AND I THINK WILL BENEFIT
FROM. IT AND WILL BE A LITTLE
FLEXIBLE I I DIDN'T KNOW WE'RE
GONNA GET THE LA O. INVOLVED SO
DEPENDING ON WHAT SORT OF
ANNOUNCED NEEDS TO HAPPEN
THAT'LL AFFECT THE TIMING. IS
THAT SOMETHING THAT YOU ALL CAN
AND ARE WE DON'T ASK THIS BUT IS
THAT SOMETHING YOU ALL CAN LIVE
WITH IT THE COMMISSION.
COMING BACK EVER TERRACE STATION
WITH US ABOUT THESE QUESTIONS
CLEARLY WE CAN DO TO MAKE THE
LEGISLATURE HAPPY HOW.

LIKE FOUR YEARS TO GET THE FPP
SEED TO DO ANYTHING ON I'M YET
TO COME UP HERE THREE TIMES THAT
IT FINING HER BUT NO ONE EVER
GOT PAID BECAUSE SHE. SHE TOOK
THE MONEY.
SO. AND THAT WAS LIKE THE MOST
FRUSTRATING THING I MEAN IF I
HAD LIKE A GAVE LETTERS
EVERYTHING ELSE AND I DON'T KNOW
WHAT HAPPENED IT FONG YOU KNOW
JUSTICE WAS FUNNY SERVE KINDA.

BRAIN WITH THE BOARD OF THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE.
STAYING OKAY OF ASKING QUESTIONS
BEFORE WE BEGIN ABSOLUTELY. BILL
A A JUST A CLARIFICATION WOULD
HELP ME. IS THIS THE ONLY
OPPORTUNITY WE HAVE TO LOOK AT
THE DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE'S
BUDGET JUST THESE ENHANCEMENTS
THAT ARE COMING BEFORE US TODAY
OR. WHAT IS THE OR IS THERE?
ANOTHER AGENDA COMING DOWN THE
PIKE ARE BUDGET HEARING PROCESS
SITE THAT DEALS WITH THE BROADER
ISSUE OF THE DEPARTMENT OFF I
WOULD AS WELL I WILL CLARIFY
THAT MY ASSUMPTION IS THAT THIS
IS THE DEPARTMENT OF INSURANCE.
PIECE THAT WE'RE GONNA BE TAKING
AS A BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE UNLESS
THERE'S SOMETHING.
NEW THAT HAPPENS IN THE MAY
REVISION BUT.
THAT IS CORRECT IN MY SOMETHING
HAPPENS AND THAT'S MY THAT IS
CORRECT SO THIS IS IT UNLESS
THERE'S SOMETHING THAT COMES OUT
OF THE FAVOR VISION THAT WE ARE
ASSIGNED AS THE BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE TO OPEN UP.
OKAY.
I MEAN IF THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE
THAT WE NEED TO LOOK INTO
SOMEONE NEEDS TO LET ME OR THE
BUDGET STAFF KNOW AND WE'LL PUT
IT ON THE AGENDA BUT RIGHT NOW
THAT'S IT.
AND BECAUSE FOR ME AND I KNOW I
ASKED THAT THE AT LEAST ONE OF
THE ITEMS TO BE PULLED. FROM THE
VOTE ONLY IS THAT.
AS MEMBERS NO I'VE BEEN RECENTLY
APPOINTED CHAIRMAN OF THE SENATE
INSURANCE COMMITTEE.
AND SO I'M GETTING MY FEET A.
SETTLED HERE IN TERMS OF THE
VARIOUS ISSUES THAT THAT WERE
INVOLVED IN THAT AREA AND THAT
INVOLVES THAT. THE WORK OF THE
OF THE DEPARTMENT.
I'D STILL FOR ME AT LEAST THAT
AS WE.
I GET SETTLED IN THIS NEW SPACE.
IN THEIR IN THE SPRINGTIME. I'M
JUST.
I CERTAINLY THINK IT'S TO OUR
ADVANTAGE AS A LEGISLATIVE BODY
TO NOT CLOSE OUT ALL THE ISSUES
IN REGARD TO THE DEPARTMENT AS
WE. BUILD UP OUR EXPERTISE TO
HEAR IN THE SEATE I'M ON. THIS
ISSUE WE OBVIOUSLY HAVE A
TRANSITION IN THE CHAIRMANSHIP
OF THAT COMMITTEE WE HAD A.
WE HAD.
VACANCY FOR THAT THAT THAT THAT
THE WHOLE BEGINNING OF OUR YEAR.
AND SO IT'S IN THAT CONTEXT THAT
I I RAISE THESE QUESTIONS.
AND LOOK FOR GUIDANCE AS TO
WHETHER OR NOT WE WOULD BENEFIT
FROM. A HOLDING THIS BUDGET.
THE SEAS BUDGET ITEMS THAT THIS
IS OUR ONLY BITE AT THE APPLE.
PIE AS WE GET SETTLED THROUGH
THE SPRING ON THE WHOLE AREA OF
INSURANCE TYPICALLY HALF OF
MEMBER REQUEST THAT AN ITEM BE
HELD OPEN AS YOU JUST SAW I
TYPICALLY WILL.

THAT REQUEST SO IF YOUR REQUEST
IS THAT WE HOLD BOTH OF THESE
ITEMS OPEN HALF AFTER

I'M CERTAINLY WILLING TO DO THAT
IS THAT. THAT'S YOUR PREFERENCE
WE WILL BE HOLDING. BOTH OF
THESE ISSUES THAT I JUST

SOME POINT WE VOTE SO THAT ONLY
WILL GET IT DONE BEFORE OUR TIME

EVEN FIGURE HAS BEEN UTILIZING
QUI TAM SETTLEMENT REVENUES FOR

OUR SOCKET.
ENHANCE FRAUD PROPOSAL IS FOR
OUR FROM DATA ANALYTICS AND
EDISCOVERY PROPOSAL.
ON THE LEGISLATURE AUTHORIZED
THE IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR
EDISCOVERY PROJECT PAYING.
TWENTY SIXTEEN SEVENTEEN.
WHERE ASKING ON THAT PROJECT
TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY FIVE THOUSAND
ANNUALLY OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS

SASS SUBSCRIPTION THAT'S OUR
SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE
DESCRIPTION SERVICE FOR THIS I'M
EDISCOVERY.
BOB PROJECT AND THEY WERE ALSO
ASKING FOR TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
ANNUALLY OVER THE NEXT TWO YEARS

TWO POINT NINE MILLION DOLLARS
TO THE DA'S ON ANNUAL BASIS.
TO INVESTIGATE I'M A PROSECUTOR
CHRIS COMPENSATION BROAD OKAY
AND THE FIVE GOT. A QUESTION OR
TWO BUT BEFORE I DO THAT AND I'M
SURE MY COLLEAGUES DO. LET ME
TURN TO FIND ITS ANY COME IN ON
THIS ONE ILIO INCOME.
THAT WE DON'T HAVE ANY CONCERNS
WITH EITHER OF THESE PROPOSALS
ROUTE IF YOU DO AND ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT. ABOUT THEM
HAPPY TO ANSWER THEM WELL LET
ME.
LET ME JUST SORT OF START OFF
IN AND YOU MAY NOT BE PREPARED
TO TALK TO THE SIDE.
BEING A MEMBER OF THE FORMER
CHEERS CLUB OF THE INSURANCE
COMMITTEE I I REMEMBER SOME
ISSUES.
.
OF A COUPLE YEARS AGO HAVING TO
DO WITH SWISS THIS TOUCHED ON
THIS.
CAN YOU TALK TO ME ABOUT YOUR
METRICS WITH RESPECT TO FRAUD
INVESTIGATIONS AND PROSECUTIONS
DO WE HAVE.
THE SET OF GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
AND DO WE HAVE METRIX'S WHAT. WE
ACHIEVE WITH RESPECT TO THE
EXPENDITURE OF THIS MONEY AND.
IN THE IN THE.
IN THE.
BATTLE THAT WERE FIGHTING THE
WAR THERE WERE FIGHTING HERE ARE
WE WINNING AND HOW DO WE MEASURE
VICTORY.
THAT'S A COMPOUND QUESTION
THAT'S WHAT THEY TAUGHT ME IN
LAW SCHOOL.
I NEED A BREAK IT UP I DON'T
KNOW IF YOU'RE PREPARED TO
ADDRESS SAID TODAY AND IF NOT
YOU CAN JUST TELL US AND TELL ME
IN.
THIS IS A HOLD OPEN ITEMS SO WE
CAN HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT IT
WHEN WE COME BACK OR. THE
CURRENT INSURANCE COMMITTEE
CHAIR MAY TELL ME THAT HE'S
GOING TO HANDLE THIS IF HE
CHOOSES TO DO SO IN A POLICY
COMMITTEE.
SAID A FAIR QUESTION IT YET AND
IN TERMS OF SPECIFIC DETAILED I
THINK WE HAVE TO CIRCLE BACK AND
GET EVERYBODY THAT BUT BUT IN
GENERAL I MEAN THE VARIOUS.
INPUTS AND OUTPUTS SO TO SPEAK
IS HIM PUTS.
WE RECEIVE FRAUD REFERRALS FROM
THE INDUSTRY.
THOSE ARE BASICALLY TRIAGE AND
BECAUSE WE DON'T HAVE THE
RESOURCES TO WORK EVERY CASE
THAT COMES AND AND NOT EVERY
CASE HAS SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE.
AND IN TERMS ABOUT THE SWIM
OUTPUTS WE LOOK AT TO IT A
NUMBER REST NUMBER OF
CONVICTIONS AND THE MATTER
RESTITUTION ORDERED.
AND PART OF THAT TRIAGE PROJECT
PROCESS INVOLVES THE. USE OF THE
ACTUAL LOSS OF THE INSURERS ABLE
IDENTIFY OR THE SUSPECTED LOS.
AND THAT HELPS OUR INTAKE
SERGEANTS DECIDE.
HELLO Y. MOVE FORWARD IN TERMS
OF DECIDING CASES ARE NUYS
SAYING CASES OR MOVIE RESOURCES
AROUND AND THE REASON I ASKED
THE QUESTION ISN'T IT OCCURRED
TO ME WHEN I.
HAD SOME WHEN I TOUCH THIS IN A
POLICY COMMITTEE WANTS THAT
THERE ARE A LOT OF MOVING PIECES
AND. OWE A LOT OF PIECES WE
DON'T HAVE CONTROL OVER.
MONEY GOING TO DOES LOCAL COUNTY
DISTRICT ATTORNEY'S IN THIS D. A
OFFICES AND YOU HAVE SOME PEACE
OF THE SENDING. AND THE INDUSTRY
HAS SOME SOME PIECE OF THIS SO.
WHO IS COORDINATING THE THE THE
FRAUD EFFORT OR IS THERE ANY
COORDINATION AND DOES THE LACK
OF?
OF CENTRAL COORDINATION IMPACT.
THE ACHIEVEMENT OF.
GOALS AND OBJECTIVES AND.
METRICS THAT ARE POSITIVE THAT
SHOW WE'RE WINNING THE BATTLE.
THOSE ARE MY QUESTIONS WE CAN
COVER THEM AT SOME LATER DATE
AND ACTUALLY SINCE I SIT ON THE
INSURANCE COMMITTEE CHAIRED BY
MY COLLEAGUE IF IT HAPPENS THERE
WE CAN DO IT THERE.
WE COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS
CENTER GLAZER AND JUST SAID I
DON'T APPROACH THAT THE
PROPOSAL'S WITH ANY PREJUDICE
AYE ONE WHERE THE OTHER I THINK
THE POINT THAT YOU JUST MADE
MISTER CHAIR.
THAT THIS PLAY IS IT'S ADEQUATE
IT SHOULD WE BE DOING MORE GET
BUT THE LACK OF INFORMATION
ABOUT THE COMPLAINTS IN THE
PROCESS.
DOESN'T GIVE ME REALLY ANY
CONTEXT IN WHICH TO JUDGE THAT
AND SO I'M CERTAINLY OPEN SAYS
WHAT'S BEEN PROPOSED AND AND
SOMETHING THAT MIGHT BE
DIFFERENT AND EVEN. ADDITIONALLY
EFFECTIVE
BUT IS DIRECTLY RELATED TO A
BUDGET REQUEST I MEAN AS THE
POLICY ISSUE ABOUT OUT STRUCTURE
THAN WHO DOES WHAT. BUT THEN
THERE'S THE BUDGET PIECE
AND WE'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
APPROVING REQUESTS FOR
EXPENDITURES. AND AND TYPICALLY
I ASK YOU.
YOU KNOW CALVET THE PERFECT
EXAMPLE IS PROBABLY TIRED OF ME
YOU KNOW WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS AND
OBJECTIVES.
AND WATER THE METRICS.
IN MEETING THOSE GOALS AND
OBJECTIVES.
AND I I.
I HAVEN'T HEARD A LOT OF METRIC
CONVERSATION HERE. WITH THIS
BUDGET REQUEST SO OR FRANKLY THE
ONES BEFORE. BUT LIKE TO SEE IT.
AND HEAR SOME CONVERSATION ABOUT
THAT BECAUSE.
WORKERS COMP FRAUD.
OBVIOUSLY IS A VERY IMPORTANT
ISSUE.
IT'S VERY COSTLY TO BY BOTH THE
INDUSTRY AND BUSINESSES IN OUR
RESPECTIVE DISTRICTS IN
THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
AND WE NEED TO FIGURE IF IT IN
FACT EXISTS AND WE KNOW IT DOES
WE NEED TO GET A HANDLE ON IT
AND THE QUESTION IS HOW WE GET A
HANDLE ON IT AND ARE ARE WE
DOING IT IN THE MOST EFFECTIVE
AND EFFICIENT WAY.
SO HAVING SAID THAT SENATOR
WELL.
YOU HAVE GOT ONE QUESTION SO YOU
TALKED ABOUT TAKING INPUT IN YOU
TAKE INPUT FROM INSURANCE
COMPANIES.
BUT YOU DO TAKE INPUT FROM LIKE
INDIVIDUAL BUSINESSES. BECAUSE I
COULD GIVE YOU SOLUTION ORIS.
WHERE AN OF AN EMPLOYER FIRES AN
EMPLOYEE LALA WORKERS COMP? THEY
INVEST THEIR OWN MONEY TO SHOW
THAT IS FRAUD PEOPLE TO THEIR
INSURANCE COMPANY IN THEIR FIRST
COMES Y. IT'S JUST CHEAPER TO
PAY HIM OFF. I ME I HEAR THAT
STORY ALL THE TIME SO I'M JUST
WONDERING.
HOW BROAD DO YOU OTHER COMMUNITY
DO YOU LISTEN TO IN UP IN ORDER
TO TAKE A LOOK AT THESE THINGS?
IN TERMS OF THE THEIR REFERRALS
WHEN I WHEN I MENTIONED
INSURANCE COPY THERE'S.
REGULATIONS STATUTE REQUIRES
THAT THEY REPORT SUSPECTED FRAUD
TO THE APARTMENT. ON TOP OF THAT
SELF INSURED ARE REQUIRED WHICH
WOULD INCLUDE A LOT OF MAIL
PRIVATE SECTOR EMPLOYERS IN THAT
TYPE OF THING PLUS THERE'S A
PUBLIC. A REFERRAL PROCESS AS
WELL SO IF YOU THINK IT'S OKAY
CBO FEAR NEIGHBORHOODS OUT THEM
THEY'RE TELLING HIM THERE ON A
WORKERS COMP FRAUD THAT THEY'RE
OUT DOING SOMETHING ELSE THERE'S
THERE'S BASICALLY TIP LINE THAT.
THEY CAN AND THEY WERE ABLE TO
GET THOSE THINGS FROM THE
PUBLIC.
YOU KNOW YOU KNOW THE TIP LINE
NUMBER.
NOT TO DOUBT MY HEAD LATELY BUT
WE CAN DEFINITELY YEAH DRAG IT
DOWN.
CAN YOU CAN YOU.
CAN YOU BE PREPARED WHEN YOU
COME BACK TO TALK TO JUST KINDS
OF ISSUES THAT I AM.
I'M REFERRING TO AND IF.
MY.
SORT OF QUESTIONS AND CERTAINLY
MY COMMENTS ARE NOT CLEAR LET ME
KNOW. EITHER NOW OR LATER.
HOW MANY OF THESE CASES ARE
THERE TO SOMEBODY TABULATE OF?
DO WE KNOW WHAT'S A TYPICAL
TIME TO.
PAY ON AVERAGE TO.
DEAL WITH THE FRAUD CLAIM.
RECOGNIZING THAT THERE OUT LIARS
AND SOME OF THEM ARE HUGE IN
SOME TAKE YEARS BUT.
AND IS THERE A WAY TO SPLIT UP
THE OUT WIRES FROM THE AVERAGE.
OUR POWER THE ADDRESSED WHAT'S
THE PERCENTAGE OF SUCCESS.
RIGHT WE AND WE WITH THEM
WITHOUT OUR DATABASE WE TRACK.
A LOT OF THOSE METRICS WE
WEEKEND IF AND AGAIN TODAY WHAT
YOUR QUESTION IS SPECIFIC TO
WORKERS COMP OR TO OUR OTHER
REQUEST.
WE CAN BREAK IT DOWN BETWEEN
YOU KNOW THE FRAUD TYPES WHICH
INCLUDE WORKERS COMP AUTO
PROPPING CASUALLY.
WE HAVE WE HAVE DATA ON WHAT
THE CASE WAS OPEN NOW ON THAT
CASE IS OPEN AND HOW LONG YOU
GOT TO AN ULTIMATE.
CLOSURE AND OR ARRESTOR
CONVICTION.
WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO GIVE YOU
METRICS ON AND KIND OF WHAT
WOULD BE A MORE LISTA TRIAGE
PROCESS AS TO THE COMPLEXITY AND
OR POTENTIAL LAS.
SWEET GIVEN CATEGORIES
DEPENDING ON CASE COMPLEXITY.
UMPS AGAIN DEPENDING ON THE
SPECIFIC TYPES OF METRICS YOU'D
LIKE TO GET FROM US OUR
DATABASES ABLE LIVER MOST OF AND
I'M NOT SURE I'M EVEN SMART
ENOUGH TO COME UP WITH THESE
QUESTIONS. BUT I I'M SURE YOU
ALL ARE IN YOU'RE RUNNING AN
OPERATION SO IF.
IF I WERE RUNNING AN OPERATION
I'D WANT TO KNOW IN MY AFFECT
RIGHT MY MOM AND MY BETTER TO
SPEND
IT OVER HERE. FOR BETTER TO
SPEND IT OVER HERE AND YOU'RE
GONNA MOVE I WOULD HOPE TO THE
ONE THAT'S EITHER A VERY HIGH
PRIORITY WHETHER IT'S IT'S HIGH
PRIORITY IN AND LOW IMPACT COULD
YOU NOT ABLE TO MAKE A LOT OF.
THAT.
HEADWAY BUT YOU GOTTA WORK
ANYWAY. OR YOU'RE GONNA MOVE IT
OVER HERE WHERE YOU'RE MAKING A
LOT OF HEADWAY AND IT'S IT
THAT'S STILL AN IMPORTANT ISSUE.
SO I WOULD THINK INSIDE YOUR
ORGANIZATION YOU WOULD GO
THROUGH HAT ANALYSIS PROBABLY
ANNUALLY AT BUDGET TIME. AND
THAT'S THE KIND OF INFORMATION
THAT I THINK WOULD BE HELPFUL
HERE YEAH I BELIEVE THAT TYPE OF
ANALYSIS IS AN ON GOING WITH
WITH OUR REGION OFFICE CAPTAINS
WHO RUN THEIR VARIOUS PROGRAMS
THERE.
DATE COSTLIER REASSESSING
PRIORITIES.
WHICH CASE TO PUT THEIR
PRIORITIES TO.
AGAIN WITH THE NUMBER RESOURCES
WE HAVE IN THE BALLING REFERRALS
WEEK WE GET. WE CAN'T GET TO
EVERYTHING AND OTHERS THAT A LOT
OF ONGOING.
ANALYSIS OF THE HOUSE PROGRESS
GOING TO NEED TO MOVE BODIES
AROUND TO TO HEAR HIGHEST
PRIORITIES SO IN TERMS OF
DOLLARS AND VERSES ARREST AND
OR.
YOU KNOW PRIDE PREVENTED AND OR
OR IDENTIFIED AND.
YET PROSECUTORS THERE'S ALL
KINDS OF CAN TO METRICS THAT
SHOW WHAT WE PUT IN AND ACTUALLY
THE THE ULTIMATE OUTCOME AND OR.
AND RESULT OF THOSE DOLLARS
HAVE BEEN PUT INTO THE PROGRAM
GOOD. SENATOR I DIDN'T I KNOW
YOU REQUESTED THESE PEOPLE TO I
DO KNOW IF YOU HAD OTHER COME AT
US.
OKAY SO.
I GUESS WE'RE WE'RE GOING TO
HOLD THESE OPEN OF AGAIN WE WILL
GET TO THEM BEFORE OUR JOB IS
DONE IS A BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE
I'D.
DIDN'T MEAN TO PUT YOU ON THE
SPOT HOPE I DIDN'T BUT I I WOULD
LIKE TO HAVE THAT CONTINUING
CONVERSATION.

PERFECT IT'S BEEN MOVED PLEASE
CALL THE ROLL.
FEDERAL AYE.
SENATOR GLAZERS. THINNER WILK.
THAT'S WHAT I LIKE TO SEE. LET'S
MOVE ON ISSUE NUMBER TWO
STATEWIDE PROJECT MANAGEMENT.
THIS IS SORT OF AN.
UPDATE.
AND AND MAYBE AND IN THAT WE
UPDATE ALL THE AS YOU KNOW
WE'VE.
HERE I T. EARLY REGULARLY HERE.
MAYBE YOU COULD HIT SOME OF THE
LA THOSE COMMENTS IN AND FOCUS
ON THOSE IN PARTICULAR SIR I
DON'T MEAN TO INTERRUPT YOUR
FLOW BUT OTHER THOSE WOULD BE
MOST I THINK MOST IMPORTANTLY.
FOCUS ON YEAH I THINK TO ELLIOT
A COUPLE I THINK REALLY
PERTINENT COMMENTS AND LEAVE IN
A STRATEGIC PARTNER WITH LA
ENLIGHTENING CONSERVING AND
PROVIDING INFLUENCE OF
INFORMATION TO THEM UP FRONT
SIGHT I DON'T MEAN TO DERAIL
YOUR PRISON STATIONS. SO WE
COMMUNICATED WITH THEM ON A
REGULAR BASIS I THINK REALLY A
COUPLE OF QUESTIONS THAT THE.
ELLIOTT HAD WAS THE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT OFFICES DIRECT
SERVICES. VERSUS SHORT TERM
CONSULTING.
AND THAT WAS ONE OF THE
QUESTIONS THAT THEY HAD AND SO
DEPARTMENT OF.
BASICALLY DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY
HAS A STATEWIDE PROJECT DELIVERY
ORGANIZATION.
AND IN NOVEMBER TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN WE DID SOME
ORGANIZATIONAL REALIGNMENTS
WITHIN OUR ORGANIZATION OF
MOVING THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT
OFFICE WHICH WAS AN ADDITIONAL
PROGRAM REPORTED TO. ME AT THE
TIME SHE DEFTLY OF OPERATIONS
INTO A SINGLE CHIEF DEPUTY
PROGRAM.
AND SUCH AS SINGLE CHECK UP THE
DIRECTOR PROGRAM UNDER A
FUNCTIONAL REORGANIZATION.
AND SO ART OF LOOKING AT
EFFICIENCIES AND EFFECTIVENESS
AND HOW WE DID BUSINESS WE MOVE
THAT PMR ONE TWISTED Y. PROJECT
DELIVERY ORGANIZATION. TO ALSO
OBTAINED OUR PROJECT OVERSIGHT
ORGANIZATION AND OUR STATE LIKE
PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATION.
SO PART OF WHAT WE LOOKED ON
LOOK AND REFLECT ON AS WE HAVE A
STATUTORY OVERSIGHT
RESPONSIBILITY IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA PROVIDING OVERSIGHT
TO ALL OF THE CRITICAL PROJECTS.
AND HOW WOULD WE OUTLINED THIS
PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE WITH
THAT I OVERSIGHT RESPONSIBILITY
SO WE DIDN'T HAVE IN ESSENCE THE
FOX WATCHING THE HEN HOUSE IN
TERMS OF OUR OVERSIGHT IN
COMPLEXION DUTIES.
SO MOVING THIS PMO AND ACTUALLY
RESTRICTING THE PMO IN TERMS OF
SERVICES OF MOVING IT OUT AND
AND REFLECTING THAT THE THE PMO
COMPONENT OF DIRECT SERVICES.
ONLY ON PROJECTS NOT WORN UNDER
OUR SPECIFIC PROJECT OVERSIGHT.
SO WITH A NOT SERVICE WHAT THAT
PMR PROVIDES A PROJECT MANAGER
SPECIFICALLY FROM INITIATION TO
IMPLEMENTATION ON A PROJECT THAT
PROVIDES ALL OF THOSE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT SERVICES COM TO
ENSURE THAT THAT PROJECT TO
SUCCESSFUL MOVING FORWARD. AND
PROJECTS THAT WE DID HAVE A
DIRECT OVERSIGHT RESPONSIBILITY
WE DON'T WAS CALLED A SHORT TERM
CONSULTING ENGAGEMENT OTHER
WORDS WE WOULD BRING IN A STRIKE
TEAM TO ENSURE. THAT THAT
PROGRAM AND AND PROGRAM
OPERATIONS BEFORE INSTALLER
STARTED THAT PROJECT. WOULD HAVE
THE RIGHT PROJECT MANAGEMENT
ACKERMAN IN PLACE WOULD HAVE THE
RIGHT PROJECT MANAGEMENT SCOPE
WHAT HAVE A LEVEL OF MATURITY IN
TERMS OF RIGHT CULTURE TO
ENTERTAIN. AND SUPPORTIVE MANNER
AYE AYE PROJECT OF THAT
MAGNITUDE.
SO ALL OF THOSE IF YOU WILL THE
PROJECT MANAGEMENT COMPONENTS
AND MECHANISMS COULD BE PUT IN
PLACE SUFFICIENTLY TO SUPPORT
THAT PROJECT. THOSE WOULD BE
SHORTER TERM ENGAGEMENT TO
DARKEN TECHNOLOGY HAVE FROM
CONSULTING SERVICES PERSPECTIVE.
THAT WOULD BE WITHIN SIXTY TWO
HUNDRED DAIS.
AND THEN WE WILL CONTINUE OUR
OVERSIGHT OF THOSE PARTICULAR
PROJECTS TO ENSURE THAT THAT
PROJECT WAS SUCCESSFUL. AND
MEANING IT'S BOTH NEAR TERM AND
LONG TERM INITIATIVES.
THAT'S WHAT THE OFFICE DOES
TODAY IS COMPRISED OF THE
PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE AND
AGAIN OUR CONSULTING SERVICES
AND ADVISORY ROLE. THE PERFORMS
THOSE FUNCTIONS THAT WE JUST
DISCUSSED.
YOU KNOW MY MY UNDERSTANDING IS
YOU HAVE.
THEY'RE SIX IS IT SIX PROJECTS
THAT ARE NOT SIX PROJECTS
ORIGINAL CORRECT AND RANGING
FROM SEVERAL MILLION DOLLARS TO
MAYBE SIXTY PLUS MILLION
DOLLARS.
AND THOSE ARE PROJECTS LARGELY
WHERE YOU PUT A. OF A OF A CAL
TECH.
TECHNOLOGY EMPLOYEE IN BROADBAND
AND IN THE PUT IN BETTER THAT
EMPLOYEE IN THE AFFECTED
DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY TO. HELP
MOVE AND IT PROJECT ALONG.
THAT'S CORRECT NOW IS THAT
DIRECTOR INDIRECT
SO BASICALLY AT THAT TIME THAT
WAS A DIRECT ROLE OKAY NO SO
THAT LEADS ME TO MY QUESTION ON
A STATEMENT IN OUR ANALYSIS
HERE.
.
IN SUMMER DILEMMAS READING IN
SUMMER TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN CITY
INSTITUTED A NEW POLICY THAT
MAKES MOST REPORTABLE PROJECTS
UNDER THE OVERSIGHT OF CDT. THAT
IS GENERALLY THE LARGER MORE
COMPLEX PROJECTS.
INELIGIBLE FOR PMO DIRECT
SERVICES
THAT'S CORRECT CONSENT TO TALK
TO ME ABOUT THAT NOW MAYBE I
MAYBE I'VE LOST WHAT DIRECT
SERVICES MEANS ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT.
THAT WHEN WE WERE GOING THROUGH
THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY PROJECT
BREEZE AND YOU JUST.
LINE THEM UP.
WE WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE.
THAT ARE ARE I T. EXPERTISE
EMBEDDED IN CALTECH OR WHATEVER
WE CALLED YOU AT THE TIME.
WAS AVAILABLE TO PARACHUTE INTO
A DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY.
AND EITHER DO A PROJECT.
OR FIX THE PROJECT.
DOES THIS STATEMENT THAT I READ.
IMPEDE YOUR ABILITY TO DO THAT
NOW IT IS NOT A AND ACTUALLY
WE'RE STILL DOING THAT UNDER OUR
CONSULTING SERVICES ARE WHAT WE
CALL ARE IN DIRECT SERVICE
COMPONENT OF THAT TODAY WITHIN
EXPLAINED HER SHOOTING FOLKS AND
SO SUCH A SINGLE ONE WHAT THE
THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT IN OUR.
ANALYSIS GRAYSON BASICALLY
WHAT-HAVE WHAT HAPPENS IS AN AND
TERMS OF SHORT TERM CONSULTING
SERVICES WE PROVIDE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT EXPERTISE ON A VERY
SHORT TERM PROJECT OF THE
PROJECT HAS HIGH RISK IF THE
PROJECT IS WITHIN OUR OVERSIGHT
DELEGATION AUTHORITY. ANDERSON
SENSE OUT FROM THE BUSINESS AREA
WE PARACHUTE PROJECT MANAGER AND
OR OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE
SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE TO HELP
GUIDE THE PROJECT AND PUT THE
RIGHT PROJECT FUNDAMENTALS IN
PLACE TO ENSURE IT SIX.
SO WE'RE STILL DOING THAT TODAY
UNDER WHAT WE CALL THIS
CONSULTING SERVICE AND AN
ADVISORY ROLE. FOR ROJECTS THAT
WE HAVE OVERSIGHT OF FORTY FOUR
NOW FOR THOSE PROJECTS THAT WE
DON'T HAVE OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY
FOR THIS WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT
OR AGENCIES A DELEGATION OF
AUTHORITY. WE CAN STILL PROVIDE
A DIRECT PROJECT MANAGER. INTO
THAT SERVICES STAYS INVOLVED IN
INTEGRATED IN THE PROJECT FROM
ITS INCEPTION TO ITS
IMPLEMENTATION
SO THAT IS THE DISTINCTION OF
DIFFERENCE THAT WE'VE MADE IN
THE OFFICE BECAUSE WE DIDN'T.
WANT TO HAVE A FULL TIME PROJECT
MANAGER MANAGING AN ENGAGEMENT
AND HAVING PROJECT OVERSIGHT ON
THAT PROJECT AS WELL BECAUSE WE
THOUGHT IT WAS A BASICALLY
CONTRADICTED WITH THE CONFLICT
OF OUR DUTIES. AND WHAT WE
PROVIDE FROM THAT OVERSIGHT
PERSPECTIVE BY GETTING AROUND
THAT IN THE CONSULTATION OF ROLE
WE CAN HAVE MORE FOR SHORTER
TERM GUIDANCE IN PERSPECTIVE ON
THE PROJECT TO MAKE SURE. THAT
THEY HAVE THE GOOD FUNDAMENTALS
OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND
DISAPPOINTING PRINCIPLES THAT
THEY NEED TO HAVE TO IMPLEMENT
THAT PROJECT IS A GOING BACK TO
THOSE SIX PROJECTS THAT WE HAD
AT THE TIME. BILLS WERE ALL.
PROJECTS THAT WERE NOT UNDER
OVERSIGHT AUTHORITY THAT WE
DIRECTLY HAD A P. M. AND FROM
THE. INITIATION TO THE
IMPLEMENTATION
REFRESH MY RECOLLECTION HAVE WHO
DETERMINES HETHER IN A
DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY.
WHETHER YOU HAVE AUTHORITY OVER
HER THEY DO WELL AS A DELEGATE
EACH DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY HAS
ADELA SPECIFIC DELEGATION
THRESHOLD ON FOR EXAMPLE SOME
SMALLER DEPARTMENTS IT COULD BE
AS LITTLE AS FIVE HUNDRED
THOUSAND. SOME MEDIUM
DEPARTMENTS HAVE A MILLION AND
OTHERS HAVE TWO MILLION A LOT OF
TIMES THAT'S DETERMINED BY
DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY WOULD
DEPARTMENT GENERAL SERVICES. IN
TERMS OF WHAT THEIR DELEGATION
AUTHORITY I SEE SO THAT'S A
PREDETERMINED THRESHOLD AND THEN
ABOVE THAT YOU WOULD HAVE
AUTHORITY TO.
GO IN AND RUN A PROJECT. OR SEND
OF PROJECT MANAGEMENT. TEAM AND
TO HELP.
OR SIT BY AND PROVIDE ADVICE IS
NECESSARY RIGHT FOR. IN THE
TRAGIC INSTANCE OF A PROJECT
IMMINENT PROJECT FAILURE
INTERVENE AND TAKE IT OVER
THAT'S CORRECT YES AND BLOW
THEIR AUTHORITY AGAIN WE COULD
DELEGATE A FULL TIME PIANO
PERSON ABOVE THEIR AUTHORITY WE
COULD GO AND.
INSULTING SERVICES GROUP PAN THE
PARACHUTE DEMAND TO ENSURE THAT
THE PROJECT SUCCESSFUL.
AND IN ANY INSTANCE FOR IN EVERY
INSTANCE WHERE PROJECT IS
LOOKING LIKE KIDS.
IN TROUBLE.
DOES DO YOU STILL HAVE.
DOES YOUR AGENCY OR DEPARTMENT
STILL HAVE THE ABILITY TO TAKE
IT OVER CASH EVERY DAY OF THAT'S
PART OF OUR STATUTORY OVERSIGHT
REFLECTS.
WELL YOU MEAN TO TAKE OVER YOUR
PRESENTATION NOTS FINE THANK
YOU.
IT ANY FURTHER.
I'M GOOD FINANCIALLY OWE
ANYTHING BASED ON THE COMMENTS.
YES I'M OUR POSITION IS THAT THE
NEW POLICY CHANGE DOESN'T FACT
LIMIT THE TOOLS THAT CDT
HYPERVALENT ALL. TO SUPPORT AND
INTERVENE WHEN PROJECTS HAVE
CHALLENGES.
.
INITIALLY THE OFFICE ALTHOUGH IT
WAS STARTED STARTED BY TAKING ON
COMMITTEE SIX SMALL TO MEDIUM
SIZE PROJECTS. THE VISION WHEN
IT WAS APPROVED BY THE
LEGISLATURE WITH AND ULTIMATELY
TAKE ON THE LARGEST AND MOST
COMPLEX PROJECTS IN THE STATE.
BECAUSE CDT WILL NO LONGER
INTERVENE IN THE IS REPORTABLE
PROJECT TO TURN BACK THE LARGER
MORE COMPLEX ONE. IT MEANS THAT
THEY ACTUALLY CANNOT PARACHUTE
IN AND MATT DIRECTLY MANAGE
THOSE PROJECTS.
THE.
DEPARTMENT IS IS CORRECT THAT
THEY STILL HAVE THIS CONSULTING
ROLE WHERE THEY CAN SORT OF
PARACHUTE IN OUT IN AND HELP
WITH DISCRETE ROLES BUT THE.
FULL SUITE OF COMPLETE
INTERVENTION IS NOT A TOOL THAT
IS AVAILABLE MOVING FORWARD
UNDER THOSE POLICIES THAT WE SEE
THIS AS A SIGNIFICANT A
MISALIGNMENT WITH WHAT THE
LEGISLATURE INITIALLY APPROVED.
ROMANCE CHIU MET I'D HOLD YOU.
DON'T BELIEVE ME.
WELL LET ME LET ME ASK A
QUESTION OR TWO ABOUT THAT
PERSON BECAUSE THE CONCEPT. AT
LEAST.
OUR CONCEPT HE DOES IT SAT ON
THIS DAIS AT THE TIME.
WAS THAT WE WOULD DEVELOP A TEAM
OF SUPER EXPERTS.
AND MAYBE WE TALKED ABOUT THIS
SO REFRESH EARLIER OUTSIDE OF
HERE MAYBE YOU CAN REFRESH MY
RECOLLECTION AS TO WHAT I CAN
REMEMBER RIGHT NOW. BUT I
THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD HAVE THIS
TEAM OF EXPERTS.
SO THAT DEPARTMENTS WOULD NOT
HAVE TO RECRUIT AND TRY TO
RETAIN THEM. FOR THOSE.
EPISODIC WERE OCCASIONAL HUGE
SYSTEM.
REBUILD THE REVISIONS OR UPDATES
THAT THAT OCCUR WHEN EVERY FIVE
OR TEN OR WHATEVER YEARS LEGACY
APPREHENSION SO THE AGE SO THEY
DON'T HAVE TO KEEP THIS HIGHLY
HIGHLY SKILLED GROUP OF PEOPLE
AROUND TO DO. MAINTENANCE AND.
ANSWER QUESTIONS.
AND THEN WE COULD HAVE THAT WE
CAN HOUSE THAT TEAM.
PAY THEM WHAT WE NEED TO PAY
THEM TO GET THEM AND KEEP THEM.
IN ONE OFFICE SO TO SPEAK THAT
COULD THEN AND THEY COULD THEN
BE ASSIGNED OUT. HAVE WE.
HAVE WE DIVERTED FROM THAT
VISION AND IF SO WHY WHY DON'T
THINK WE NECESSARILY DIVERTED
FROM THE VISION I THINK WE'VE
MADE SOME MODIFICATIONS TO THE
PROCESS AND AND HERE'S WHY WHEN
ARE WE ALLOWING DEPARTMENTS TO
BUILD UP THESE TRY TO BUILD UP
THESE I. T.. SECTIONS.
AT SOME COST I'M SURE. AND IF SO
WHY WALL TRADITIONALLY A LOT OF
THE DEPARTMENT SAYING AND LARGER
AGENCIES ALREADY HAVE THEIR OWN
PROJECT MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION.
SO IN SOME IN SOME CASES THIS IS
OUR REPETITIOUS PROCESS THAT WE
LOOKED AT. WHAT THE ORIGINAL PMO
CONCEPT WAS TO LOOK AT THOSE
DEPARTMENTS THAT DIDN'T HAVE PMO
EXPERTISE AND TO AUGMENT THAT
WITH? PMO EXPERTISE FROM THE
DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY SO BUT BUT
ISN'T IT TRUE THOUGH THAT THE
PROJECT MANAGEMENT EXPERTISE IN
A DEPARTMENT.
AND YOU KNOW I KNOW NOTHING
ABOUT WHAT YOU DO SO.
TAKE WHAT I SAY WITH A GRAIN OF
SALT AND THEN FEEL FREE TO
CORRECT ME.
ARE THERE DIFFERENT LEVELS OF
PROJECT MANAGEMENT PEOPLE.
CLARICE
SO THERE'S THE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT. PERSON.
FOURTEEN.
THAT COULD TAKE ON A TWENTY
FIRST CENTURY PROJECT
FOR EXAMPLE.
AND THERE IS THE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT PERSON OR TEAM THAT
COULD TAKE ON.
OTHER. A MODIFICATION TO.
SOME SUBSET OF THE D. M. V.'S.
COMPUTER SYSTEM RIGHT THAT'S
CORRECT THERE'S DIFFERENT LEVELS
OF EXPERTISE THAT COULD BE
ALLOCATED TO THOSE PROJECTS AND
I DON'T THINK IT WAS OUR INTENT
TO TAKE AWAY THE ABILITY OF A
DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY TO DEVELOP.
THOUGH THE PROJECT MANAGEMENT
PERSON OR TEAM THAT COULD WELL
AS CRIME THERE.
PERIODIC IT UPGRADES OR WHATEVER
THEY DO INSIDE THE DEPARTMENT OR
AGENCY BUT WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT
THESE.
ONCE EVERY TEN OR FIFTEEN
AROUND CALIFORNIA I GUESS IT'S
THIRTY FIVE OR FORTY YEAR.
PROJECT.
.
HUGE PROJECTS IT'S A DIFFERENT
TYPE OF PERSON ISN'T RIGHT AND
AND THAT'S A LEVEL OF EXPERTISE
THAT WERE LOOKING OUT THROUGH
OUR AGENCY SO WE HAVE A
GOVERNMENT STRUCTURE HER IN THE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND AND MOST
OF OUR AGENCY INFORMATION
OFFICERS COMPRISE THE AID.
AGENCIES ARE IN CALIFORNIA WHERE
THE RESPONDENT NUMBER OF
DEPARTMENT AND TECHNOLOGY
ORGANIZATIONS
REPORT THROUGH THEIR POLICY
AUTHORITY.
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS CAME BACK TO
OUR DEPARTMENT THAT THEY WOULD
LIKE TO RETAIN AT THE AGENCY
LEVEL A LEVEL PROJECT MANAGEMENT
EXPERTISE ON THOSE LARGER
PROJECTS THAT YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT. AND HAVE THAT
RESPONSIBILITY AT THEIR AGENCY
LEVEL REPORTING DIRECTLY INTO
OUR DEPARTMENT FROM THE
OVERSIGHT PERSPECTIVE ON THE
LARGE PROGENITOR A LARGE
PROJECTS SO THAT'S A FUNDAMENTAL
CHANGE WERE PREVIOUSLY ON A LOT
OF THESE LARGE PROJECTS IT WAS
AT THE DEPARTMENTAL LEVEL. THAT
THEY WOULD PARACHUTE IN A
PROJECT DIRECTOR ON THESE LARGE
MONOLITHIC PROJECTS SO THAT
REPRESENTS A CHANGE IN THINKING
THAT WE'VE HAD DURING THIS
TRANSITION OF* A MILE SO THE
GOVERNMENT AGENCIES NOW WANTED.
KEEP IN THE HOUSE.
THE CAPABILITY TO HANDLE THE
VERY LARGEST OF PROJECTS THAT
MAY OR MAY NOT OCCUR IN THE
AGENCY OR THEY WOULD LIKE OF THE
DIRECT PROJECT MANAGEMENT THEY
WOULD LIKE TO HAVE THE AUTHORITY
FOR THE DIRECT MANAGEMENT.
PROJECT ALIGNING THE DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY
WELL THEN THAT'S SOMETHING THAT
ON A FROM A BUDGET STANDPOINT
THE BUDGET COMMITTEE OR THE
SUBCOMMITTEES.
NEED TO TAKE A LOOK AT BECAUSE
IT WOULD SEEM TO ME YEAR
SPENDING MONEY. TO RETAIN TECH
TO RECRUIT AND RETAIN TALENT
INSIDE A DEPARTMENT OR AGENCY
THAT MAY EXCEED THE NORMAL. USE
FOR THAT TYPE OF PERSON AND
TALENTS YEAR OVER YEAR.
I I THINK IT'S ON NICK AS NEEDED
CASE BY CASE BASIS SO THAT PER
PERSON IN'T PERMANENTLY
ASSIGNED TO THAT POSITION.
BUT NOBODY ON A CASE BY CASE
BASIS ICY WEATHER THEY DO WHEN
THEY'RE NOT WORKING CURRENTLY
RIGHT NOW PROJECT MANAGEMENT
OFFICERS ARE PART OF OUR
CONSULTING SERVICES TEAM WHO ARE
PARACHUTED INTO THESE PROJECTS
TO HELP ADDRESS ISSUES OIC SO
YEAH THEY STILL WORK FOR YOU.
THAT'S CURRENTLY DON'T WORK FOR
THE A NASA ARCING AGENCIES
INDEPENDENTLY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE
THOSE FOLKS IN THE FUTURES IS
LARGER PROJECTS COME UP HAVE
DIRECT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE
REPORTING AUTHORITY OF THEM.
ALLEGING SO YOU'RE NOT TAKING
THERESOURCES SO YOU WOULD
TEMPORARILY ASSIGNED THEM TO AN
AGENCY AND HAVE THEM REPORT SAYS
THE SECRETARY OF THE DEPARTMENT
DIRECTOR WHATEVER CHATS CREDITS.
IS THAT A PROBLEM I DON'T SEE
THAT AS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY
WOULD HAVE DIRECT RESPONSIBILITY
IN FORTY FOR THE PROJECT
MANAGEMENT PIECE ONLY WOULD
RETAIN OUR PROJECT OVERSIGHT
AUTHORITY I SEE I ASUNDER STOOD
I THOUGHT WE WERE GETTING BACK
TO THE SITUATION WHERE.
THE SECRETARY OF STATE OR THE
CONTROL OR OF THE TREASURER
DECIDED THAT.
HERE SHE WANTED TO BUILD UP AND
IT DEPARTMENT AND WE HAVE.
EXPENSIVE IT PEOPLE SITTING
THERE ANSWERING. TECHNICAL
QUESTIONS WHEN THE COULD BE
WORKING ON MAJOR PROJECTS
ELSEWHERE AND. THAT'S NOT THE
CASE.
OKAY.
LA ALIKE.
TRUNCATED YOUR PRESENTATION AND
I APOLOGIZE.
FINE I. THOUGHT WHEN WE DID
THINK THAT THERE'S JUST A.
.
YOU A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE ON
HOW TO MOVE FORWARD WITH
BUILDING PROJECT MANAGEMENT
EXPERTISE ACROSS THE STATE OF
THINGS THAT THE ADMINISTRATION
DOES PREFER. A DECENTRALIZED
APPROACH WHERE THERE'S MORE
CAPACITY BUILT WITHIN
DEPARTMENTS AND WHERE CDT TO THE
PARACHUTES IN ITS IN AND OUT AND
PROVIDES MORE OF A SUPPORTING
ROLE. WHEREAS THE PROPOSAL THAT
WAS APPROVED BY THE LEGISLATURE
PRIORITIZED LIST STRONG OF
CENTRALIZED RULE FOR PROJECT
MANAGEMENT. FOCUSED WITHIN THE
DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY.
IT SEEMS THAT THERE SHOULD THE
WE MERIT FOR FOR BUT BOTH OF
THOSE MODELS TO SOME EXTENT
ABOUT A BALANCED APPROACH. AND
SO ARE.
OUR RECOMMENDATIONS REALLY
REFLECT THAT THE LEGISLATURE.
.
VOICE CAN OF THE ORIGINAL
INTENTION THAT STILL BE ITS
PRIORITY ORCHARD OF GIVE ME
DIRECTION TO THE DEPARTMENT IF
IT SORT OF DOES THE VALUE IN. A
MORE BALANCED CENTRALIZED AND
DECENTRALIZED APPROACH.
ARE OUR ONLY CONCERN IS THAT AS
IT STANDS NOW IF IT DOES
MISALIGNED WITH THE DIRECTION
THAT THE LEGISLATURE PROVIDED TO
THE ADMINISTRATION WHEN IT
APPROVED THE FOURTEEN FIFTEEN.
BUDGET PROPOSAL.
ANY COMMENT.
NOW I MEAN WOULD BE HAPPY TO GO
BACK AND WORK WITH LA O. ANA A
PATH FORWARD THAT WE THINK IS
CONSTRUCTED FOR BOTH SIDES BUT I
THOUGHT I'D APPRECIATE THAT I
MEAN I TELL THE AGENCIES OF THE
DEPARTMENTS WHEN THEY COME IN
HERE AND THEY SAY THEY'RE GONNA.
EXERCISE OPTION WHATEVER THE
NUMBER IS WERE IN ESSENCE THEY
DO MOST OF IT WHEN THEY.
SORT OF TAKE SOME ADVICE FROM
YOU THAT'S OKAY BUT YOU KNOW THE
FICKLE FINGER OF FATE IS GOING
TO BE POINTING AT YOU.
IF WE HAVE A PROJECT FAILURE AND
YOU HAVEN'T UTILIZED TO THE
APPROPRIATE PEOPLE WITH THE
APPROPRIATE EXPERTISE BECAUSE
YOU WANTED TO TAKE IT ON
YOURSELF.
AND I'VE SAID THAT BEFORE AND I
STILL FEEL THAT.
SO.
AS LONG AS THEY HAVE THE AS LONG
AS YOU HAVE THE CAPABILITY TO.
PROVIDE.
COMMANDING CONTROL OVER THAT
PROJECT WHATEVER TERM YOU USE
FOR THAT.
I GUESS I'M OKAY BUT IF THERE
ANY RESTRICTIONS THAT ARE BEING.
IMPOSED ON.
CD T..
AND YOUR ABILITY TO DO THAT THEN
I GUESS I'D LIKE TO FIND THAT
OUT AND. FIX THAT AND I CAN
ASSURE YOU WE STILL HAVE
COMMANDED CONTROL OVER THE
PROJECTS THAT STILL LIES WITHIN
SEE BT'S AUTHORITY.
PROOF IN THE PUDDING BUT WE
HAVEN'T SEEN ANY MAJOR FAILURES
WALKS TO THE DOOR YET SO
HOPEFULLY WE WON'T. HAVE ANY.
ANYTHING ELSE MA'AM I APPRECIATE
YOUR COMMENTS.
WHAT IF ANYTHING? THAT JUST LIKE
THAT JUST ONE COMMENT ABOUT THE
ORIGINAL SPRING FINANCE LETTER
AND THAT IS THAT THE BULK OF THE
RESOURCES IN THE SPRING FINANCE
LETTER. OR JUST FOR PROJECT
MANAGERS THEY WERE ALSO FOR
PEOPLE TO DEVELOP.
STATEWIDE.
RESOURCES THAT EVERY SINGLE
DEPARTMENT WOULD HAVE ACCESS TO
FREE OF.
CHARGE.
IN TERMS OF ACCESSING THE
CONTENT AND SO WHEN THE INITIAL
LETTER WRITTEN I REQUEST ELEVEN
POSITIONS. THAT HER PROOF BUT
EIGHT OF THOSE ELEVEN POSITIONS
WERE ACTUALLY FOR DEVELOPING
THESE FRAMEWORKS IN THESE FREE
RESOURCES THAT COULD BE
LEVERAGED BY EVERY SINGLE
DEPARTMENT IN THE STATE TO HELP
IMPROVE.
THEIR INTERNAL PROJECT
MANAGEMENT CAPACITY.
SO IT WASN'T JUST A. A
DECENTRALIZED VERSES A
CENTRALIZED APPROACH TO BE CP
ITSELF.
PRESENTS DECENTRALIZED RESOURCES
AS WELL AS A CENTRALIZED
RESOURCE AND SO.
AND IF THEY HAVE BEEN
SUCCESSFUL IN DEVELOPING THIS
FRAMEWORKS IN THEIR AVAILABLE ON
THEIR WEBSITE TODAY SO I JUST
WANTED TO BRING THAT COMPONENT
OF THE FINANCE LETTER INTO.
.
INTO THEIR RIGHT IN AND I'M.
I'VE BEEN.
SAYS FIGHT HERE. THAT SOMETIMES
LEAST THAT'S BEEN MY EXPERIENCE
IN THE SHORT TIME I'VE BEEN UP
HERE THAT I THINK DEPARTMENTS
AND AGENCIES SOMETIMES TAKE ON.
MORE THAN THEY REALLY SHOULD BE
TAKING ON BECAUSE THERE'S AN
OWNERSHIP THING.
AND AS LONG AS CDT HAS THE
ABILITY WITH THE ADMINISTRATION.
STEP IN AND SAY NO NO NO.
BUT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO THAT.
WE'RE GONNA DO IT WE'RE GOING TO
DO IT THIS WAY. OR IF THEY
CHOOSE TO MOVE DOWN THE ROAD
TRYING TO DO IT THEMSELVES CDT
HAS THE ABILITY WITH
ADMINISTRATION TO STEP IN AND
SAY OKAY.
YOU'VE TRIED IT ENOUGH'S ENOUGH
HERE'S WHAT WE'RE GONNA D AND
WE'RE CONTROLLING THIS THAT'S
WHAT I THINK.
THE LEGISLATURE INTENDED
CERTAINLY THAT'S WHAT WE
INTENDED. BUT IN THIS SUB
COMMITTEE AT THE TIME THAT WE
FIRST.
LISTEN TO A BUNCH OF IT PROJECTS
DEBATED THEM AND THEN ALSO.
FOCUSED ON CD TNC T. SEPARATIONS
I THINK THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE
SAYING SIR.
IN A WAY.
I THE I KNOW THAT I AM PRETTY
SURE THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SAYING.
AND I'M COMFORTABLE WITH THE
STATE OF AFFAIRS.
ANY PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS
PARTICULAR ISSUE.
OKAY.
I THINK THAT'S IT GREAT THANK
YOU VERY MUCH THANK YOU VERY
MUCH AND I BELIEVE UNLESS
SOMEONE TELLS ME OTHERWISE WE.
CLEARED OUR AGENDA.
AND.
THIS SESSION OF BUDGET
SUBCOMMITTEE NUMBER FOUR IS A
JUROR.
YOU CAN
