THE AYE CALTRANS PITCH WILL

OFF THE AGENDA ISSUE ON THE GUY
CALTRAIN STORM WATER IN THE SAP
CISCO BEAR AFTER WOULD. BY HAVE
PRESENTATION ON THE SAID. I
SEVEN ITEMS ALRIGHT.
PLEASE BEGIN.
GOOD MORNING I'M LAURIE BERMAN
I'M THE NEW CALTRANS DIRECTOR
PLEASURE TO BE HERE FOR LET'S
START WITH THE. ROAD REPAIR
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT
IMPLEMENTATION PLAN THE
DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
REQUEST ONE POINT EIGHT BILLION
IN STATE SUPPORT IN CAPITAL
FUNDING. AND FOUR HUNDRED NEW
MAINTENANCE POSITIONS FOR
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS UNDER SP
ONE. FISCAL YEAR TO EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN S. B. ONE REVENUES AND
LOAN REPAYMENTS PROVIDE
APPROXIMATELY FOUR POINT SIX
BILLION FOR LOCAL AND STATE
TRANSPORTATION PRIORITIES. THIS
REQUEST SEEKS TO CONTINUE
IMPLEMENTATION CONSISTENT WITH
THE LEGISLATION AND I KNOW THAT
YOU HAD A COUPLE OF SPECIFIC
QUESTIONS.
THE FIRST ONE WAS HOW TO
CALTRANS DETERMINE THE SPLIT
BETWEEN SHOPPING MAINTENANCE
FUNDING. CALTRANS MUST ALLOCATE
BETWEEN SHOP AND MAINTENANCE AS
WE PRINT AS WE PROCEED TO
IMPLEMENT SP ONE RESOURCES. WE
HAVE DEVELOPED AN ASSET
MANAGEMENT PLAN TO IDENTIFY AND
PROGRAM THE PROJECTS AND AFTER
YEARS OF UNDERFUNDING MUCH OF
THE HIGHWAY SYSTEM HAS
DETERIORATED. BEYOND THE POINT
THAT MAINTENANCE PROJECTS ARE
THE MOST EFFICIENT OR THE VIABLE
OPTION. THE DEPARTMENT HAS TO
REHABILITATE AND RECONSTRUCT
SEGMENTS OF THE SYSTEM. THEIR
AREAS THAT MAINTENANCE METHODS
SUCH AS A PAVEMENT OVERLAY WILL
PRESERVE THE ROAD BED AND KEEP
IT IN GOOD HEALTH. AND THAT THE
DEPARTMENT HAS TO DO BOTH WE
HAVE TO TREAT WHAT CAN BE
PRESERVED THE MAINTENANCE AND
REHABILITATE AND RECONSTRUCT
USING THE SHOP.
IN FY EIGHTEEN NINETEEN THE SHOP
FUNDING WILL BE FIFTY EIGHT
PERCENT HIGHER AND MAINTENANCE
SIXTY PERCENT HIGHER COMPARED TO
SP ONE. PRE SP ONE FUNDING.
AND.
BEFORE WE HEAR FROM THE ALEJO I
GUESS THE QUESTION IS IS THAT WE
HAVE THIS SUCH A LARGE BACKLOG
AND ALL THE MEMBERS AND WE CAN
BRING IN MORE MEMBERS HAVE A
LARGE. BACKLOG IS THAT IT'S THE
THE.
IT MIGHT BE THAT YOU NEED MORE
IT INCREASE ON THE
REHABILITATION OF THE THE ROADS
AND WE GET IN THE MATCH UNDONE.
IN THE NORMAL COURSE OF BUSINESS
OF BUSINESS EACH SAY THE KID
MAINTENANCE AND SHOPPED IT SPLIT
IT'S SORT OF LIKE A WHEN I GET
THAT DE IN CLASS I CAN'T
CONTINUE TO CAN.
BUSINESS AS USUAL I MAY HAVE TO
DO SOME ACCELERATED WORK TO GET
BACK UP TO THE SEA LEVEL ONE AND
THAT'S HOW WE'RE GREETING SOME
OF OUR ROADS SO.
IT'S IT'S WE KNOW IT'S AN
INCREASE WE KNOW IT'S AN
INCREASE BUT I GUESS IT'S THAT
IT'S THE SPLIT BECAUSE OF. JUST
THE BACKLOG I GUESS OF WITH YOU
CAN FLUSH OUT SOME MORE OF HIS.
BACK YOU COULD PROBABLY SPEND
ALL THE MONEY ON.
I. REBUILT ASIAN NOTHING ON
MAINTENANCE AND THEN THAT WOULD
MAKE THAT MAINTENANCE
IT.
CLOSE TO BEING REHABILITATION
THERE'S SOME MAGIC IN WHAT YOU
HAVE YOU CHOOSE PROJECTS IN BUT
GETS DONE HER SO FOR YEARS WE'VE
WE'VE USED THE MAINTENANCE
PROGRAM TO DO.
TO KEEP THE SYSTEM OPERATING WE
HAVEN'T HAD THE SHOT DOLLARS TO
DO THE BIG FIXES AND SO WE HAVE
TO DO BOTH AND AND THE ASSET
MANAGEMENT PROGRAM HELPS US
DETERMINE WHICH ARE APPROPRIATE
TO TO IMPROVE OUR LEVELS OF
SERVICE.
AND SO WE BELIEVE THAT WE'VE
SELECTED THE RIGHT MIX OF
MAINTENANCE VERSUS SHOP SO IF
YOU CONTINUE TO JUST TO
MAINTENANCE YOU'LL NEVER GET TO
THAT BIG FIX SO. SOMETIMES IT'S
APPROPRIATE TO DO THE PAVEMENT
OVERLAYS SOMETIMES YOU NEED TO
DO A COMPLETE OVERHAUL OF OF A
PARTICULAR ROAD AND SO THOSE ARE
THE THINGS WE'RE LOOKING AT.
WE HAVE.
SEC.
HELLO TO CUT.
BUT I COULDN'T GO SHOPPING
REPEATING.
AND MAYBE.
FRIEDMAN.
SS I SO.
RIGHT SEVEN ITUNES. BY SETTING
SUCH A. BAD THING.
SURE SO WE'RE GOING TO BE DOING
IT WE'RE GONNA BE REASSESSING
THIS AS WE GO ALONG.
SEE WHERE THAT WHERE THE SYSTEM
IS AS WEAK AS WE CONTINUE TO
IMPROVE IT USING THE SP ONE
FUNDS.
WE HAVE.
PERFORMANCE DRIVEN PLAN THAT'S
OUR ASSET EFFICIENT MANAGEABLE
PROCESS
THAT SUPPORTS THE OVERALL
PRESERVATION OF THE SYSTEM. SO
WILL CONTINUE TO ASSESS EVERY
YEAR WHERE WE'RE AT IN AND WHICH
IS THE RIGHT MIX OF PROJECTS.
THIS AN ANSWER THAT.
YEAH I MEAN I GUESS I GUESS IT'S
LIKE GO. GOING TO DENNISON YOU
THINK IT'S A LITTLE THING AND
THEN YOU OPEN IT UP AND IT'S A
BIG THING. RIGHT IN THAT YOU SAY
I THINK I GOT A LITTLE PAIN IN
ITS OF ROOT CANAL THAT'S GOT TO
BE THE.
JEWISH XIN BUT ALL KINDS OF
ROADS ME ALL KINDS OF ROADS
WHICH WHICH THE BEST AND THE
BRIGHTEST ARE THINKING I SIMPLY
MAINTENANCE AND THEN YOU GET
THERE AND YOU SAY ONO NO NO
THIS.
IS UNDERNEATH IT'S BEEN A WE
DON'T WANT TO HAVE THE SAME
CALLS THE GOVERNMENT AND THAT'S
WHAT THE SHOP WILL FIX IT RIGHT
THOSE. THATROUTE BROUGH CAN A
WHOLE TYPE OF PROJECT.
WHERE WE WE ARE FIXING THE
UNDERLYING ISSUE SO THAT WE
DON'T HAVE WERE FIXING THE
CULVERT SO THAT WE DON'T HAVE
SINKHOLES INSTEAD OF KIND OF
PAVING OVER IT? SO THE
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM IS THE SHORT
TERM FIX THIS THE SIMPLER FIX
THE SHOP PROGRAM IS THE. HAPPY
GO AND DO THE ROOT CANAL TYPE
EFFECTS POLIO.
YOUR COMMENTS.
LEGO.
.
YEAH WE SHARE THE SAME CONCERN
THAT YOU'VE BEEN OUTLINING THE
ALLOCATION BETWEEN MAINTENANCE
AND SHOP BOTH PROGRAMS HAVE
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING SHORTFALLS
AND SP ONE IS PROVIDING.
SIGNIFICANT ADDITIONAL FUNDING.
.
WHEN WE YOU KNOW WE HAVE
REVIEWED SOME OF THE INFORMATION
THAT THE DEPARTMENT PUTS
TOGETHER ON THE THE BACKLOG OF
PROJECTS FOR EACH PROGRAM.
AND IN OUR ESTIMATES WE'VE
WE'VE.
CONCLUDED THAT THE MAINTENANCE
PROGRAM HAS HAS A LARGER FUNDING
SHORTFALL WHICH IS WHY WE'RE
SUGGESTING ALLOCATING MORE
FUNDING THERE.
MENTIONS CAN SAVE MONEY IN THE
LONG TERM CALTRANS ESTIMATES
EACH DOLLARS SAVED BETWEEN
FOREIGN TWELVE DOLLARS BY
POSTPONING SHOT PROJECTS.
AND IN ADDITION MENTIONS
PROJECTS CAN BE COMPLETED MORE
QUICKLY USUALLY THEY DON'T
REQUIRE AS MUCH AS A DESIGN AND
ENGINEERING WORK.
SO TO THE EXTENT GONE TO SEE
MORE RESULTS MORE QUICKLY WITH
SP ONE DOLLARS ALLOCATING MORE
MONEY TOWARDS MAINTENANCE COULD
CAN HELP THAT.
DOCTOR BERMAN WHAT THAT VALUABLE
ALSO INCLUDED SOME OF THE
CONCERN ABOUT GUARDRAILS
LIGHTING THAT MAY NOT BE UNDER
THE TECHNICAL. DEFINITION OF A
AYE SP ONE WATER YEAR RESPONSE
THAT.
WELL. GUARDRAIL LIGHTING THAT'S
ALL PART OF THE THE ROADWAY
REPAIR SO THAT'S AND THAT'S
THOSE ARE FREQUENTLY THOSE ARE
THE TYPE OF MAINTENANCE FIXES WE
WOULD DO.
RIGHT BUT HE THEY WOULD SAY THIS
FUNDING FOR SP ONE WAS FIX AND
REPAIR IN OTHERS A MESSAGE THAT
CAME OT AND THAT. THAT LOOKS AT
THE ASPHALT AND.
STRIPING VERSES LIGHTING AND
SIGNS.
IT'S A AGAIN I THAT'S NOT MY
OBJECTION IS THE LA US OBJECTION
US.
YEAH WE WERE JUST POINTING OUT
SB ONE FOCUSED ON.
A COUPLE OF SPECIFIC ASSETS THE
PAVEMENTS BRIDGES RIGHT OVER.
I DIDN'T MENTION SOME OF THE
OTHER KIND OF ROUTINE
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES NOT THAT
THOSE ARE NOT WORTHY OF OF
FUNDING.
IT'S MORE JUST ABOUT SETTING
PRIORITIES.
DR.
SO. IN ORDER FOR THE SYSTEM TO
OPERATE PROPERLY WE NEED TO LOOK
AT THE WHOLE SYSTEM AND THAT'S
WHAT OUR ASET MANAGEMENT
PROGRAM LOOKS AT IS THE WHOLE
SYSTEM. OF NOT JUST THE OF THE
SILOS OF LIGHTING OR PAVEMENT.
SO AND TO MAKE SURE THAT IT'S
OPERATING SAFELY WE NEED TO BE
SURE THAT THE GUARD RAIL IS IN
GOOD CONDITION THAT THE LIGHTS
ARE FUNCTIONING.
THE PEOPLE CAN SEE THE SIGNS SO
THESE ARE ALL IMPORTANT ELEMENTS
AND SB ONE DOLLARS IS CAN IS
GOING TO HELP US FIX ALL OF THAT
WE DO WE ARE LOOKING PRIMARILY
AT PAVEMENT BUT THE MAINTENANCE
PROGRAM INCLUDES ALL OF THOSE
ELEMENTS.
OKAY.
AS SENATE MCGUIRE. NOT JUST ON
THIS POINT QUICKLY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MADAM
DIRECTOR IN WHO GRADUATION AYE
IT'S GOOD TO SEE IN PERSON.
IT'S WEALTHIEST WELL AND I I
THINK ON THE ONE ISSUE ON
MAINTENANCE AND PARTICULARLY.
AS WE LOOK.
.
IN TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN.
VOTERS AND RESIDENTS WANT TO BE
ABLE TO SEE THESE BOX SPENT AS
QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE RIGHT. AND
WHICH I APPRECIATE.
DRIFTER DOUGHERTY EXPEDITED
PROJECTS THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
I FOR THE FIRST FEW YEARS AND
ALL THIS MENTION WHAT WE DIDN'T
COUNTY CINEMA.
WE EXPEDITED. MAINTENANCE
PROJECTS UNDERSTANDING THAT WE
HAVE SOME OF THOSE HEAVIER LIVE
PROJECTS
THAT.
WOULD BE OTHER NEW CONSTRUCTION
OR ADD ONS TO PREVIOUS EXISTING
INFRASTRUCTURE.
BECAUSE FOLKS WANTED YOU TO SEE
THEIR TAX DOLLARS BEING SPENT.
TO THINK THAT'S THE OTHER PIECE
ON THIS IS WELL JUST BEING
CANDID. IS THAT THE QUICKER WE
CAN GET BOX OUT.
THERE REALLY UNDER THE STREET.
I THINK CALIFORNIANS ARE WE
HAPPIER IN THAT'S WHY I'M A BIG
CONCERN.
IS THAT I I THINK THERE'S AN
ACT IN EXPECTATION HAS BEEN
CREATED BUT THEY'RE GONNA SEE.
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS.
IN EACH CORNER IN THE STATE THAT
I KNOW THE CALTRANS HAS BEEN I'M
MOVING ON THIS A ONCE HE THANK
YOU. BUT I THINK THAT'S THE
OTHER PIECE OF ALL THIS IS.
FOR THE FIRST FEW YEARS.
POTENTIALLY FLIPPING THIS I
UNDERSTAND YOU HAVE THE
TECHNOLOGY AND THE EXPERTS BUT I
ALSO THINK WE HAVE REALITY OF
WHAT.
RESIDENTS WANT.
IF YOU'RE A X. I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE SAYING AND SO WE HAVE
ACCELERATED A LOT OF PROJECTS
INTO THE CAREER SHOP PROJECTS
INTO THE CURRENT YEAR WE ALSO
HAVE ACCELERATED. A LOT OF
MAINTENANCE WORK SO YOUR USE YOU
SEE WE'VE WE JUST.
PUT OUT IT A GIANT STRIPING
CONTRACT THREE STRIPE UPON
VARIOUS CORRIDORS AROUND THE
STATE WE HAVE CONTRACTS FOR NEW
SIGNS THE WITH THE RETRO
REFLECTIVE SIGNS. THAT YOU'LL
SEE AROUND THE STATE SO YOU'RE
GONNA SEE A LOT OF WORK BEING
DONE WITH OUR CURRENT.
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM.
RIGHT THERE IN A AND I WON'T
KEEP THE DOG UNDERNEATH THIS
DESK HERE BUT.
.
FOR LOOKING AT AND AGAIN WE. ARE
WE'VE UNDER INVESTED
INFRASTRUCTURE TO BE THE FIRST
TO SAY THAT FOR MANY DECADES. A
FIFTY NINE BILLION DOLLAR
BACKLOG LOCAL ROADS AND STREETS
STREETS OVER EIGHTY MINUTE
BILLION DOLLAR BACKLOG STATE
HIGHWAY SYSTEM. RIGHT THERE I
BELIEVE.
BUT BOTTOM LINE IS.
WE CAN GET MONEY OUT QUICKER ON
MAINTENANCE BECAUSE WE DON'T
HAVE ANY DO YOU ARE ALL THE SOFT
COSTS ENGINEERING ENVIRONMENTAL
THE PLANING. AND I WOULD HOPE
THAT THERE'S GONNA BE SOME
CONSIDERATION ON THAT BECAUSE I
I KNOW THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
HEARING.
WHEN I'M IN THE COMMUNITIES ON
THE NORTH COAST.
OKAY I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU'RE
SAYING AND AND WE ARE. WE'RE
VERY COGNIZANT OF THAT.
CENTER NIELSEN.
LET ME JUST TO MAKE AN
OBSERVATION ON THIS.
VERY POINT.
THE.
CITIZENS ARE VERY CONCERNED.
THEY DON'T TRUST THE GOVERNMENT.
AND RIGHT MAY NOT SO.
AND IT'S INCUMBENT UPON
CALTRANS.
UTILIZING THIS MONEY TO BE
PRUDENT AND FAST ABOUT.
THE FAST ABOUT IT PART WHAT IS
BEING DONE TO EXPEDITE ANY OF
THE REVIEWS IN THE STUDIES THE
INTERMINABLE STUDIES THAT OF
THAT. CONSUMED SO MUCH OF OUR
ROAD DOLLARS.
I DO WE DO YOU HAVE ANY PLANS
AHEAD OR ANY LEGISLATION YOU'LL
BE PROPOSING TO.
SHORTEN THAT PROCESS.
SPEEDED UP IF YOU WILL.
SURE WE'RE ALWAYS LOOKING FOR
WAYS TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS WE
HAVE A A LEAN SIX SIGMA APPROACH
THAT AND ALSO VALUE ANALYSIS TO
LOOK AT. AT OUR PROCESSES AND
HOW WE CAN.
EXPEDITE PROJECTS REDUCING THE
PROCESSING TIME FROM AND OF
DESIGNED TO RELEASING.
PLANS FOR CONSTRUCTION.
WE'VE REDUCED THE CONSTRUCTIBLE
ANY REVIEWS BY MAKING THOSE MORE
EFFICIENT.
AND.
FOR ALSO LOOKING AT NEW
TECHNOLOGIES SUCH AS THREE D.
DESIGN MOBILE FIELD DEVICES
WHERE WE DON'T NEED TO HAVE.
WE DON'T NEED SET UP PLAYING
CLOSURES FOR SURVEY CREWS WE CAN
USE MOBILE FIELD DEVICES TO DO A
LOT OF THE SURVEYING THAT USED
TO BE DONE. WITH BOOTS ON THE
GROUND.
NEW TYPES OF SURVEY EQUIPMENT
SO WE'RE AND ENERGY I US MAPPING
IS REALLY ADVANCED AS WELL SO WE
ARE CONSTANTLY LOOKING FOR WAYS
TO IMPROVE THAT MUST BE ONE ALSO
REQUIRES US.
TO PROVIDE AN AND EFFICIENCIES
REPORT ANNUALLY FOR THE
LEGISLATURE YES TO THE TO THE
COMMISSION INTO THE LEGISLATURE.
THE.
DO YOU HAVE ANY ACCOUNTING OR
COULD WE GO ANYWHERE TO
DETERMINE HOW MUCH HAS BEEN
COLLECTED SO FAR UNDER SB ONE.
AND THE AMOUNTS.
RIGHT I THINK I HAVE SOME OF
THAT INFORMATION OF THE MIGHT BE
LOOKING FOR.
FIRST OF ALL IT WAS SO WE'VE
BEEN COLLECTING THE THE
TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT FEE
AS PART OF THE.
REGISTRATION FEES FOR THEM
WE'VE BEEN CLICKING THAT YOU
KNOW EFFECTIVE JANUARY FIRST.
AND.
WE CLICKED ABOUT TWO HUNDRED
SIXTY MILLION IN THE END FAR
THROUGH FEBRUARY TWENTY EIGHTH
IT'S ABOUT WHAT WE EXPECTED TO
COLLECT IN THAT TIME PERIOD.
THAT MONEY HAS.
STATUTORY OBLIGATIONS OF THE
FIRST BILL THREE IN A FIFTY
MILLION ADVOCATES CARVED OUT
FOR.
TRANSIT INTERCITY RAIL CAPITAL.
AND THEN ALSO THAT SPLIT WITH
US SOME OF THE.
THE STATE TRANSIT ASSISTANT
MONEY. AND THEN THERE'S ANOTHER
TWO HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS OF THAT MONEY THAT GOES
TO.
THE CONGESTED CORRIDOR PROGRAM
SO THAT MONEY IN EQUAL PARTS IS
THIS TAKE OFF IN THE END AND SO
A HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS A
MONTH FOR FOR THE FOR JANUARY
THROUGH JUNE THROUGH JUNE ARE
GOING TO GO THERE. THEN THE
MONEY THAT'S LEFT OVER GOES INTO
THE ARMORY ACCOUNT. ALONG WITH
THE ADDITIONAL.
ADDITIONAL FUNDS FROM THE.
FROM THE DIESEL TAX AND FROM
THE GASOLINE EXCISE TAX.
AND HAVE IT HERE.
SO FAR THE TOTAL AMOUNT OF MONEY
SO WE'VE WE'VE.
.
UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN WE TALK
ABOUT THE EXCISE TAXES THEY'RE
PAID WHEN WHEN WE DO THE MARCH
DISTRIBUTION OF. OF THE MONEY
THAT GOES TO THE FOOD AND THE IN
VFA THE HIGHWAYS ATTACKS COUNT
IN THE MOTOR VEHICLE FUEL COUNT.
THE THE MONEY THAT'S COLLECTED
THROUGH FEBRUARY IS ACTUALLY A
PREPAYMENT OF THE JANUARY AMOUNT
PLUS A TRUE UP OF THE DECEMBER
AMOUNT.
SO WE IT AT THE TIME OF THE OF
THE.
.
DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS INTO THE
ARM ARE A FROM THOSE ACCOUNTS.
THAT MONEY IS THAT THAT REVENUE
THAT THE CAST FOLLOWS THE
REVENUE BY BETWEEN FORTY AND
SIXTY DAYS SO.
THERE WAS SOME CATCH UP I MEAN
TO GET ONCE WE GET GOING EACH
MONTH WILL JUST BE YOU KNOW ONCE
THE POMPOUS PRIMED. EACH
MONTHTO BE.
PRETTY MUCH LIKE THE PREVIOUS
MONTH.
SO THE SO FAR BETWEEN NOVEMBER
AND FEBRUARY. OF THE ARMORY HAS
RECEIVED ABOUT FIVE HUNDRED
SIXTY THREE MILLION DOLLARS.
.
IN IN IN NORMAL MONTHLY.
EXECUTE.
DISTRIBUTIONS WE'D EXPECT ABOUT
A HUNDRED EIGHTY MILLION
DOLLARS.
AND.
OF THAT AMOUNT WE RESPECT
FOR FOR THE REST OF THIS YEAR
THE OF THAT AMOUNT ABOUT.
THIRTY MILLION OF THAT TO BE
FROM THE TRANSPORTATION
IMPROVEMENT FEE AND REST TO BE
FROM THE EXCISE TAXES.
AND THEN AS WE MOVE FORWARD NEXT
YEAR BECAUSE WE HAVE TWELVE
MONTHS VERSUS SIX.
THE THEM OUT WE HAVE TO CARVE
OUT. A YOU KNOW FOR THE THOSE
SPECIFIC PROGRAMS IS CUT IN HALF
EACH MONTH SO MORE MONEY IS THEN
LEFT IN AVAILABLE AND THAT'S WHY
WE.
FROM EIGHTEEN NINETEEN FORWARD
THERE'S MORE MONEY AT THE END
THEY GET SPLIT ESSENTIALLY
BETWEEN LOCAL STREETS AND ROADS.
AND.
THE THE SHOP AND MAINTENANCE
PROGRAM. SO CURRENTLY WE'VE HAD.
ABOUT EIGHTY SIX MILLION OF THE
OF THE FIVE IN A SIXTY THREE
MILLION HAS GONE TO LOCALS LOCAL
CITIES AND COUNTIES.
EIGHTY SIX MILLION HAS GONE TO
THE SHOP THEN AND.
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM.
THERE'S BEEN A HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS THAT'S GONE TO.
THOUGH LOCAL REGIONAL
TRANSPORTATION AGENCIES.
THERE'S BEEN TWO HUNDRED
MILLION SET ASIDE FOR BRIDGES
AND CULVERTS FIFTY MILLION FOR
THE ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION
PROGRAM.
AND.
.
AND THEN THE OTHER TWELVE
MILLION FOR FREE WHICH OVER SO
ARE YOU KNOW. WE THEY'RE THEY'RE
ALL BEING DISTRIBUTED PER.
ARE PLANNED FOR FOR THE SP ONE
PLAN THE REVENUES ARE COMING IN
ESSENTIALLY.
.
NO WITHIN PERCENTAGE POINTS OF
WHAT WE EXPECTED.
WE DIDN'T NECESSARILY EXPECT
THAT THERE WOULD BE THE FORTY TO
SIXTY DAY DELAY THAT'S JUST PART
OF YOU KNOW WE DIDN'T CHANGE THE
COLLECTION METHOD. OF WHEN WE.
IMPLEMENTED S. B. ONE SO.
YEAH THAT'S JUST BUILT INTO IT.
THAT'S ALWAYS BEEN THERE SO
THERE WAS A A LAG THERE WAS A
COUPLE MONTHS THERE WEREDOES
FOLLOW SOME SETTLERS IS MONEY
COMING FROM SITE WELL. YOU KNOW
WE HAD TO GET IT THROUGH NOW
FROM THE SUPPLIERS TO THE TO THE
SCO YA THROUGH THE CD TFA. AND
THEN OUT YOU KNOW TO THE LOCALS
THROUGH THE DIFFERENT FORMULAS
THAT SORT OF THING THAT ENDED
TELL ME SOMETHING ABOUT THE
FORMULAS YOU KNOW THE. HOUSE OF
THE OLD TIME STEP BEEN MODIFIED
TO WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY AS WE
PROCEED ALLOCATING TO. OF LOCAL.
KENNEDY'S. AND TO.
THE STATE BUT I LIVE STEP
pALLOCATED THE WAY IT WAS BEFORE
BECAUSE.
THE STEP IS ESSENTIALLY ALL THE
MONEY FROM STEP COMES FROM THE
PRICE SPACE EXCISE TAX SO THAT
THERE'S NO MODIFICATION OF THAT
FROM THE S. B. ONE RULES UNTIL
NINETEEN TWENTY.
SO THERE'S NOTHING THERE'S
NOTHING OF THIS THAT MODIFIES A
STEP EXCEPT TO SAY THAT FROM
NINETEEN TWENTY FORWARD.
SINCE THEN THE SINCE WATER WE'VE
ELIMINATED THE ADJUSTMENT OF A
STEP WE CAN LOOK FORWARD TO BE
EIGHT YEARS OUT AND SAY HERE'S
HOW MUCH MONEY WE'RE GOING TO
HAVE AVAILABLE FOR THE STEP. AND
YOU KNOW IN EVERY ARE SO WE WE
CAN PLAN LOCALS CAN PLAN AND
THEY DON'T HAVE TO HAVE THIS YOU
KNOW WE'VE HAD AS MUCH AS. YOU
KNOW A BILLION DOLLARS IN A YEAR
FOR THE STEP AND THEN WE'VE HAD
AS YOU KNOW WE'VE HAD.
PROGRAM ANOTHER SIX OR MILLION
THE TAKE AWAY SIX UNDER MILLION
BECAUSE I YOU KNOW HAS DO WITH
THE WITH THE.
THE PRICE BASS EXCISE ADJUSTING
YOU KNOW AS LOW AS NINE POINT
EIGHT CENTS HIRES.
TWENTY THREE CENTS.
THEN YOU KNOW UNDER THE SP ONE
THEY'LL BE SEVENTEEN POINT THREE
CENT SET IN IN NINETEEN TWENTY
AND THEN THAT NUMBER WILL GO UP
BY CP I EVERY YEAR SO WE CAN
LOOK FORWARD.
AND YOU KNOW THAT THAT EQUATES
TO ABOUT SEVEN HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS A YEAR FOR STEP. AND.
AND THEN WE CAN LOOK FORWARD
AND SORT OF A JOKE YOU KNOW THAT
NUMBER AND WE KNOW WHERE THAT
NUMBER IS GOING TO BE IN EVERY
YEAR GOING OUTSIDE THINK IT IT
IT PROVIDES A CERTAIN THE. BOMB
AND IT PROVIDES A.
BUT PREDICTABLE FLOW OF REVENUE
FOR THE STEP PROGRAM FOR ZERO
ANY LOCATION THAT OF THE AVERAGE
CITIZEN CAN GO TO TO. GET
UPDATED INFORMATION ON THE
SENATE REVENUE STREAM AND AND
ARE EXCITED ABOUT THE STEP
REVENUE OR NO NO THAT TALKING
ABOUT THE THAT PROCEEDS FROM THE
VERY.
DANIELLE FOLKS CONTACT ME AND I
AM HAPPY TO PROVIDE INFORMATION
THERE'S ALSO THE SCO'S WEBSITE
OF THE PORTION MINTS ON THE SCO.
ON THEY DO HAVE.
DATE UPDATE EVERY MONTH WITH
THE ARMORY APPORTIONMENT THE
FOOD A PORTION IN THE M. VFA
APPORTIONMENT. AND YOU KNOW
WHAT'S
IT'S TECHNICAL BUT IT'S ALL THE
INFORMATION IS THERE AND.
YOU KNOW IN IN IF ANYBODY ELSE
I'M HAPPY TO HELP ANYBODY.
NAVIGATE THROUGH THAT WELL I
THINK YOU BUT YOU DO HAVE GIVEN
A LOT OF GOOD INFORMATION
APPRECIATE THAT ONE QUICKER MORE
QUESTION IF I MAY.
THERE WERE FOUR HUNDRED
POSITIONS ABOUT.
FOR MAINTENANCE OF.
QUESTION TO THE LA O. DO YOU
FEEL THAT.
PARA LIP DEPARTMENT IS
ADEQUATELY JUSTIFY THOSE FOUR
HUNDRED MAINTENANCE POSITIONS AT
THIS POINT WHERE DO WE NEED MORE
INFORMATION.
UP WE DON'T HAVE ANY CONCERNS
WITH THE POSITION REQUESTS FOR
MAINTENANCE.
YOU KNOW THAT AS WE TALKED
ABOUT BEFORE THE MAINTENANCE
PROGRAM IS GETTING A
SIGNIFICANT.
AUGMENTATION AND FUNDING TO DO
MORE MAINTENANCE WORK.
SO THEY'LL NEED THE BEST
ADDITIONAL STAFF TO TO GO OUT
AND ACTUALLY DO THAT WORKS
WOULDN'T HAVE ANY CONCERNS WITH
THAT PART OF THE PROPOSAL.
ALRIGHT LIKE MR CENTER CITY.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR DIRECTOR
BERMAN AS ONE OF WELCOME YOU
FIFTH POSITION AND LOOK FORWARD
HERE STEWARDSHIP HERE OVER A
VERY IMPORTANT ACCOUNT AND A
BIG.
BIG BURDEN BUT I DID WANT TO
COMMEND.
YOU IN CALTRANS ON THE EFFORTS.
THAT YOU UNDERTOOK ON THE ONE
ON ONE.
FREEWAY WHEN WE HAD THOSE
SLIDES.
.
THAT WAS HERCULEAN AND.
NO ONE'S REALLY PULLED OFF A
FEAT LIKE THAT IT DIDN'T WELL MY
LIFETIME I'M ONLY THIRTY SIX SO.
FULLERTON YEAH PUSHIN
BUT.
.
THAT KIND OF PUBLIC
DEMONSTRATION THOUGH OF
EXPEDITIOUS IN THIS OF
RESPONSIVENESS IS EXACTLY I
THINK WHAT WHAT WERE TALKING
ABOUT HERE AND HOPE TO SEE MORE
I JUST WANT TO GET YOUR THOUGHTS
BRIEFLY ON.
WHAT?
WHAT ADDITIONAL TOOLS?
WHO E. YOU MAY LACK TO BE
GETTING?
THESE DOLLARS OUT THE DOOR MORE
QUICKLY.
FEEDBACK ON THAT BECAUSE THAT
SEEMS TO IT DID THE NEED IS
OBVIOUSLY HUGE THIS IS NOT TO
MEET THE ENTIRE NEED BUT. WHAT
ARE YOU MISSING?
I APPRECIATE YOUR COMMENTS AND.
I'M TREMENDOUSLY PROUD OF OF THE
CALTRANS TEAM AND THAT WAS.
AN EXCELLENT EXAMPLE OF.
.
WHERE WE WE WE REALLY SHINE AND
WE HAD A LOT OF A LOT OF FOLKS
WORKING WITH US AS WELL?
AND A YOU KNOW I THINK THAT FOR
YEARS WE HAVE BEEN HAMSTRUNG BY
THE LACK OF FUNDS DENIED AND I
JUST THINK THAT S. B. ONE IS GET
TOGETHERS.
A LONG WAY AND USING OUR ASSET
MANAGEMENT PROGRAM TO FIGURE OUT
WHERE WE APPROPRIATELY.
OR PROGRAMMING THOSE DOLLARS I
I THINK YOU'RE GONNA SEE A
SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE AT THIS
TIME. I I DON'T THINK THAT WE'RE
ASKING FOR.
.
FOR.
TOO MANY OTHER THINGS I WILL BE.
WE ARE LOOKING AT IT.
CONSTRUCTION MANAGER GENERAL
CONTRACTING WE.
WHICH IS A ANOTHER WAY OF
DELIVERING PROJECTS THAT WE HAVE
PILOTS AVAILABLE WOULD LIKE TO
MAKE DATA.
SORRY KEEP LOOKING BACK AND
FORTH WE.
WE WOULD LIKE TO MAKE THAT A
PERMANENT THING WE'D LIKE TO
HAVE AS MANY TOOLS IN OUR
TOOLBOX.
AVAILABLE AT OUR DISPOSAL.
I'D LIKE TO OPEN UP THE PUBLIC
COMMENT THIS IS ISSUE NUMBER ONE
WITH THE. CALTRANS.
ROAD REPAIRS ACCOUNTABILITY ACT
IMPLEMENTATION ANYBODY LIKE TO
DRASTIC SUBCOMMITTEE.
CLOSE THE PARA.
PUBLIC COMMENT WE'RE GOING TO
HOLD THIS MATTER ARMS.
FAME WILL SEE YOU NEXT MONTH
LET'S MOVE ONTO THE PERSONAL
SERVICES ADJUSTMENT FIFTY EIGHT
MILLION. DOLLARS NUMBERED I
SHOULD TOO HE SHOULD'VE.
THE DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION
REQUESTS A PERMANENT INCREASE OF
FIFTY EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS
WHICH WILL FIX A BUDGET FOR
SHORTFALL CREATED DURING THE
CONVERSION TO FISCAL. AND PASSED
EMPLOYEE COMPENSATION
ADJUSTMENTS
THIS FIX WILL FULLY FUND BENEFIT
AND RETIREMENT COSTS FOR
EXISTING POSITIONS PREVIOUS
PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZED BY THE
LEGISLATURE.
BECAUSE OF THE SHORTFALL
CALTRANS HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO
COMPLETELY FILL AUTHORIZED
POSITIONS.
THE PROPOSED FIX WILL ALLOW
CALTRANS TO FILL POSITIONS HELD
VACANT DUE TO THE FUNDING
SHORTAGE. DOING SO WILL ALLOW
THE DEPARTMENT TO FOCUS ON AREAS
pOF LAGGING PERFORMANCE AND
PROVIDE. BETTER SERVICE TO THE
STATE AND TO THE PUBLIC. IN
TWENTY FIFTEEN SIXTEEN DURING
THE CONVERSION INTO OFFICE CAL
FUNDING WAS MISALIGNED AND
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE CAN ANSWER
THE. TECHNICAL QUESTIONS ABOUT
THE.
THAT HAVE FINANCE HOW DID THAT
HAPPEN.
THE DEMON NOT DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE SUB DURING THE
TRANSITION TO FISCAL.
THE DOLLARS THAT WERE INTENDED
FOR ALL THESE CEDIT PER A
PERSONAL SERVICES BENEFITS NOT
THE SALARIES ARE PUT INTO A ONE
BUCK AND THAT.
DOES DOLLAR AMOUNT WAS ACTUALLY
ABOUT A HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS LOWER THAN WHAT WAS
INTENDED.
IN.
AND I GUESS THE QUESTION IS IS
THAT THAT WAS FOUR YEARS AGO.
ADMIN WERE WORK I'M SURE THAT
FOUR OF US ARE HAPPY TO CORRECT
IT IS IT'S WHAT. WHY WAS NAMED
CUT EARLIER I DON'T KNOW IF YOU?
YEAH WE CERTAINLY APPRECIATE THE
HAPPY TO CORRECT IT.
AND ON THE AT WHY WASN'T
DISCOVERED UNTIL NOW.
SOAP AND FIRST OF ALL DISCUSSES
SOME DOES NOW GIVE US THE
ABILITY TO LOOK DEEPER INTO WHAT
EACH OF THESE BUCKETS ARE ON
WHICH IS ONE OF THE GREAT
ASPECTS OF THAT SYSTEM.
UNTIL NOW.
CALTRANS HAS BEEN IN A A PERIOD
OF DECLINING WORKLOAD IN
DECLINING POSITION AUTHORITY SO.
THE ATTRITION YEAR OVER YEAR
PROVIDED WHEN YOUR SALARY
SAVINGS WHICH ALLOWED CALTRANS
TO.
MANAGE WITHIN ITS EXISTING
BUDGET AND YOU THINK THIS THIS
ADJUSTMENT IS POOR. PERMANENTLY
FIXES MISALIGNED MIS ALIGNMENT.
YES I BUT NOW THAT WE'RE AWARE
OF THIS PROBLEM ARE CERTAINLY
GOING TO BE MONITORING AT YOUR
EVERY YEAR TO MAKE SURE. THAT IT
DOESN'T CROP UP AGAIN ALEJO HE
HAVE.
ANYTHING THAT ADDS.
SIR.
.
I THINK I THINK IN REVIEWING
THIS PROPOSAL WEEK WE HAD A
LITTLE BIT OF DIFFICULTY.
SORT OF TRACKING HOW THE THE
PROBLEM CAME ABOUT OVERTIME IN
AN UNDERSTANDING EXACTLY. HOW IT
DEVELOPED AND AND WE ALSO? HEARD
SOME OTHER EXPLANATIONS FOR THAT
THE CAUSES OF THE PROBLEM AND
INVOLVING A LACK OF SALARY
ADJUSTMENTS FOR TEMPORARY
POSITIONS AS WELL. HOW MUCH
WOULDN'T NECESSARILY BE AN
ADDRESS SIDE I DON'T KNOW THAT
THIS WOULD PERMANENTLY?
PERMANENTLY ADDRESS THE ISSUE
MOVING FORWARD.
DOT SAID I I THINK OUR MAIN
CONCERN.
IS HAVING A BETTER
UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT PROVIDING
THE FUNDING WOULD ACCOMPLISH.
THIS IS MONEY THAT IF YOU
APPROPRIATE IT TO FILL THESE
POSITIONS WOULDN'T BE AVAILABLE
ESENTIALLY FOR THAT THE SHOP
PROGRAM THIS IS WHAT OTHERWISE
WOULD GOING TO.
YOU KNOW THE AYE I THINK IN
SOME CASES IT'S MORE OBVIOUS ON
SOME THE MONEY WOULD HELP FILL
POSITIONS IN MAINTENANCE LIKE WE
TALKED ABOUT IT I THINK IT'S
PRETTY OBVIOUS WHAT THOSE ARE
STAFF WOULD BE DOING.
AND OTHER CASES SOME OF THE
MONEY WOULD BE GOING TOWARDS THE
ADMINISTRATIVE PROGRAM AND THERE
IT'S JUST A LITTLE WE DON'T HAVE
A A A GREAT DETAILED
UNDERSTANDING OF EXACTLY WHAT
ADMINISTRATIVE WORK. HASN'T BEEN
DONE WHAT WORK NEEDS TO BE DONE.
IT'S OFTEN REQUIRE. THANK YOU SO
MUCH FOR SECURE.
I WANNA START OUT BY SAYING I
JUST I CAN'T SPEAK HIGHLY ENOUGH
OF RIGHT NOW. A RECENTLY RETIRED
MISSISSIPPI A DISTRICT FOR
DIRECTOR HAS BEEN INCREDIBLE
THERE TO WORK WITH AND YOU TALK
ABOUT PULLING RABBITS OUT OF A
HAT. UP UNTIL MAY DIFFER
PROJECTS IN OF COURSE MISTER
BRADY UP NORTH.
INDISCIPLINE JUST WANNA IN IN
THEIR INCREDIBLE TEAMS.
I AND I THINK.
BEING HONEST I FOUND CALTRANS AT
LEAST IN THE NORTH COAST REGION
BEING. OUT SOME OF THE MOST
INNOVATIVE OF TRYING TO BE A TO
GET THE S. UNIMPORTANT PROJECTS
WHETHER IT'S. ON HOW WE TO
NINETY NINE OR HOW WE WANT TO
WONDER HIGHWAY ONE. AT Y'ALL
COVER A LOT OF TERRITORY IN
COULD NOT BE MORE GRATEFUL TRULY
OUT WITH THAT. A AND ITS
EMPLOYEES HEARD THAT MAKE THE
SUCCESS.
AND THAT'S WHAT I WANT TO FOCUS
IN ON IN IN PARTICULAR WAS IN
THE BAY AREA REGION IF WE TAKE A
LOOK AT LOOK AT TO SICK FOR.
DISTRICT FOR.
HAS.
MULTIPLE FUND MULTIPLE POSITIONS
THAT THEY JUST CAN'T HIGHER AT
THE MOMENT. AND BECAUSE OF THE
TIGHT LABOR MARKET.
AND I HAVE SOME REAL CONCERNS.
AND EASIER ENTRY LEVEL
POSITIONS INDIVIDUALS ARE
DITCHING HER BRUSHING OR.
PICKING UP TRASH CAN REALLY
ALONG THE HIGHWAY.
THAT.
IF YOU ARE IN THE MARINA AND THE
SAN FRANCISCO.
REGIONAL BRANCH OFFICES THERE
WHICH IS.
COURTYARDS THEY CAN'T
HIRE.
AND.
NOW A DISTRICT FOR IS LOOKING AT
THAT.
THE PAD THE PROJECT I THINK
CITY SAN JOSE.
BROUGHT THIS FORWARD WHERE
INDIVIDUALS ARE GETTING OUT OF
STATE PRISON. ABOUT WITHIN BE
EVER TRANSITION RIGHTFULLY SO
AND A FULL TIME JOB AND
HOPEFULLY BE RETURNED LIFE
ARAMBULA FIND A NEW CAREER WHICH
I LOVE.
THAT SAID I IT IS INCREDIBLY
HARD FOR CALTRANS TO BE ABLE TO
FILL THESE POSITIONS AND ARE
LOOKING FOR ADDITIONAL.
AND I WOULD I WOULD SAY IS WHAT
ARE WE DOING PARTICULARLY WITH A
REALLY TIGHT RENTAL MARKET. COST
OF LIVING AND IF WE'RE LOOKING
AT.
SINCE THIS GO BAY AREA INLAND
EMPIRE. LA REGION TO BE ABLE TO
FILL THESE VACANT POSITIONS THAT
NO FAULT OF THE DISTRICT
WHATSOEVER BUT IT'S JUST WE
CAN'T COMPETE WE CAN'T COMPETE
CANDIDLY. WITH STARBUCKS.
IN SO IT CAN YOU COMMENT ON
THAT BECAUSE I THINK THAT
THERE'S I UNDERSTAND YOUR NEED
BUT WE ALSO HAVE HUNDREDS OF
VACANT POSITIONS THAT JUST CAN'T
BE FILLED.
OKAY AND PRIOR TO BE JOHN'S
RETIREMENT HE AND I HAD THIS
DISCUSSION AND A AND I CAN TELL
YOU A LITTLE BIT OF WHAT WE'RE
DOING.
.
BECAUSE HIRING IS A HUGE
COMPONENT FOR US.
BUT THE OTHER THING THAT WE'RE
DOING ONCE WE'VE HIRED PEOPLE IS
GETTING THEM TO UNDERSTAND THAT
THE PAST FORWARD THAT THEY HAVE
A GOOD CAREER PATH WITH CALTRANS
AND UNDERSTANDING. HOW TO MOVE
UP WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION TO
BETTER PAYING JOBS WE'D ALSO
HAVE THE PROGRAMS YOU MENTIONED
THE PEARL LEAD TO WORK? OF WHERE
I CAME FROM PRIOR TO THIS IN SAN
DIEGO WE ALSO. MADE SURE THAT WE
ARE REACHING OUT TO VETERANS IN
AN AREA WHERE THERE'S A LOT YOU
KNOW LARGE MILITARY PRESENCE SO
THE PEOPLE UNDERSTOOD. HOW TO
COME TO WORK FOR CALTRANS
BRINGING IN PEOPLE WHO ALREADY
TRAINED AND READY TO MOVE UP IN
THE ORGANIZATION?
MANAGER NOT AT ALL TRYING TO BE
CRANKY BUT I MEAN THEY DIDN'T
EAT ADDRESS WELL I WAS JUST
BRINGING FORWARD SO. LOOK I
THINK THAT I UNDERSTAND.
THAT YOU'RE LOOKING FOR NEW
POSITIONS BUT WHAT I.
AND I'M ONLY ONE RIGHT SURE BUT.
THIS THE AGENCY NEEDS TO BE ABLE
TO FIGURE OUT A WAY TO BE ABLE
TO FILL THESE VACANT POSITIONS.
BECAUSE THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
THE RESIDENTS ARE TRUSTING S. B.
A TO GET THE JOB DONE WITH OUR
TAX DOLLARS.
AND RIGHT NOW WE'RE HEARING ON
THE GROUND IS THAT WE CANNOT
FILL LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF
POSITIONS. IN HIGH.
.
HIGH INCOME COMMUNITIES.
BECAUSE WE CAN'T COMPETE WITH
RESTAURANTS IN STARBUCKS AND
THAT IS.
NOT FROM MY MOUTH BUT FROM
OTHERS WHO ARE VERY KNOWLEDGE
WITHIN THE ORGANIZATION.
SO I I HAVE SOME CONCERN WITH
THAT THAT THERE'S SO MUCH ON
YOUR PLATE IN AGAIN NOT AT ALL
TRYING TO BE CRUNCHY WITH YOU
HERE. BUT I'M JUST BEING HONEST
THAT.
I DON'T LIKE A DIRECT ANSWER IF
YOU DON'T HAVE IT WOULD LIKE
TOBE IN HAVE YOU COME BACK AND
SAY
LET'S HAVE ANOTHER CONVERSATION.
BUT SUPPOSED TO SAY LET'S LET
ME.
EXPLORE THIS A LITTLE BIT MORE
AND THEN GET BACK WITH HIM BUT
I'D APPRECIATE IT THANK YO SO
MUCH A SUB COMMITTEE WILL BE
HOLDING THIS MATTER CENTER
NIELSEN.
SOME OF THE MONEY.
NOW WE'RE COUNTING FOR A.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE THAT WHEN
THERE ARE ABOUT FIFTY TO GET
TRANSFERRED TO SOME OTHER BUDGET
ITEMS.
AND YOU BUDGET.
I JUST NEEDED IT'S NOT THAT THE
MONEY DIDN'T GET THAT MONEY GOT
TRANSFERRED ANYTHING IT'S THAT
THE AUTHORITY WOULD DURING THE
DURING A TIME WHEN WE WOULD BE.
REDUCING POSITIONS EVERY YEAR
BECAUSE OF DECLINING WORKLOAD.
THERE WAS THERE WASN'T THE NEED
TO NECESSARILY HAVE YOU ALL OF
THE POSITIONS UNDER PERCENT
FUNDED BECAUSE WE KNEW WE WERE
GOING TO BE GETTING RID OF TWO
OR THREE HUNDRED OF THEM.
AT THE END OF THE YEAR SO THE
PRACTICE WAS TO DISTILL IT YOU
KNOW ALLOW THOSE POSITIONS BE
VACANT. BUT THEN YOU KNOW AS WE
ARE NOW IN A NEWTON INCREASING
WORKLOAD.
ENVIRONMENT.
IT IT IT MAKES THOSE.
UNFUNDED POSITIONS OF.
ENOUGH IT WASN'T ENOUGH MONEY TO
BE TO JUMP OFF THE PAGE WHEN WE
KNEW WE WERE GOING THE OTHER
WAY.
.
I STARTED BEING ENVIRONMENT
WE'RE LOOKING TO. BUT YOU KNOW
EXPANDED RESOURCES AVAILABLE
THAT WITHOUT THE FIRST THING
WE'D LIKE TO DO IS TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE RESOURCE WE HAVE A
FULLY FUNDED. AND THEN AND AND
THEN YOU KNOW LOOK AT THINGS
FROM THERE.
SO SO THE MONEY I MEAN
ESSENTIALLY WE HAD SALARY
SAVINGS THAT WAS SAVED YET WE
SAVED OUT BECAUSE WE KNEW WE
WERE GOING TO BE YOU KNOW. WHEN
WE DID WHEN WE DID OUR OUR.
FINANCE LETTER EVERY APRIL.
WE'RE REDUCING TWO OR THREE
OTHER PEOPLE AND IN EACH OF
THOSE
MITCHELL'S CABLE ONE OF THE.
GOD DAMN IT.
CHALLENGES AND STATE GOVERNMENT
AGENCIES FOR DECADES HAS BEEN
THE ABUSE OF SALARY SAVINGS.
WHAT I'VE SAID THE BOARD PRISON
TERMS I HAD MIGHT MINISTRY LOSS
OF COMMUNITY IN THE AND SAY GEE
WITH GOD EX NUMBER DOLLARS A?
DIDN'T GET SPENT.
WE'RE GONNA WE CAN BY THIS AND
BY THAT AND BY THE OTHER THING I
SHOULD WE TALK ABOUT PLAN.
HOW DID WE DO THAT OWE US SALARY
SAVINGS?
SALARY SAVINGS.
THEN YOU'D DEFINE THE POSITIONS
NICE OF WHITE WEDDING WITH
PHYLLIS POSITION NOW THAT WAS
NOT A MATTER OF THE PEOPLE WERE
NOT AVAILABLE.
BUT.
THE THE CULTURE AT THE TIME IT
IN THE FISCAL THE OFFICES WAS
THAT THAT'S A GAME THEY PLAYED.
I SAID NO GLENN WE'RE NOT GOING
TO THAT A MORE. THAT WE GET ANY
BETTER ANALYST AND IN THE
AGENCIES OF GOVERNMENT TO AS FAR
AS HE'S SALARY SAVINGS POSITIONS
BUT LEAVING THEM. PURPOSEFULLY
OPEN.
YEAH WELL ACTUALLY THE STATE
MOVE TOWARDS A DIFFERENT WAY OF
BUDGETING FOR POSITIONS THAT
DOESN'T ASSUME SALARY SAVINGS
ANYMORE SO WE ACTUALLY ASSUME
NOW THAT ALL THE POSITIONS ARE
FILLED A HUNDRED PERCENT OF THE
TIME THIS WAS A PROPOSAL BY THE
ADMINISTRATION A FEW YEARS AGO.
SO THAT'S THAT'S THE WAY IT'S
UP AND WORKING. CURRENTLY.
.
I THINK IN TERMS OF.
YOU NOTICE THIS PARTICULAR
PROPOSAL AND I THINK WHAT I
UNDERSTAND THE ADMINISTRATION TO
BE SAYING IS THAT.
THEY HAD POSITIONS THAT WERE
AUTHORIZED THAT THEY WEREN'T
USING IN THE PAST DUE TO
DECLINING WORKLOAD AND NOW THEY
WANT TO FUND THEM.
BUT I THINK OUR CONCERN AS WELL
THOSE POSITIONS PROBABLY SHOULD
HAVE BEEN ELIMINATED AND TAKEN
OFF THE BOOKS IN THE PAST AND IF
THEY WANT.
THE FUNDING NOW THEY SHOULD
PROVIDE DETAILED WORKLOAD
INFORMATION ON WHAT THE
POSITIONS ARE GOING TO BE DOING
AS THOUGH THEY WERE NEW POSITION
AND THAT'S HAS NOT YET BEEN DONE
CORRECT.
I'LL DOT DOT ASK DO DIRECTOR AND
CHIEF YOU COULD NOT DO THAT THAT
WOULD BE A HELPFUL ACCOUNTING
INDUSTRY AND IS A IS A IS A GOOD
ONE AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED.
BUT. YOU KNOW I THINK WE NEED TO
HAVE JUSTIFICATION WHEN
YOU'RE-GONNA GO AHEAD NOW FILL
YOU HAVE
A NEED.
BUT LET'S JUSTIFIED.
THAT'S W. MY REQUEST.
WE WILL.
OUR INTENTION IS TO HOLD THE
MATTER AND LIKE TO GET. THE.
INFORMATION FEEDBACK BUT THAT
THIS TIME ALLOTMENT TO PUBLIC
HEARING EITHER PETE MEMBERS OF
THE PUBLIC THAT WOULD LIKE TO.
SPEAK ON ISSUE NUMBER TWO.
THE SAID.
ACCOUNTING CORRECTION.
I CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING.
GETS HOMEWORK TO DO AND FOUND
THIS ONE LET'S MOVE ON TO THE.
EXTENSION OF THE PILOT PROGRAM.
.
ROAD USAGE
PAT CHARGE.
HEY THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION REQUEST THE
EXTENSION OF FIVE LIMITED TERM
POSITIONS. AND THREE POINT TWO
MILLION DOLLARS TO UTILIZE
AWARDED GRANT FUNDS.
AND CONTINUE TO EXPLORE MORE
EFFICIENT EQUITABLE AND
SUSTAINABLE TRANSPORTATION
FUNDING ALTERNATIVES.
FHWA APPROVED A ONE POINT SEVEN
MILLION DOLLAR GRANT IN OCTOBER
TWENTY SEVENTEEN FOR CALTRANS TO
DEMONSTRATE MECHANISMS TO
COLLECT. MILEAGE BASED REVENUE
AND DATA AT FUELING STATIONS.
THE THREE POINT TWO MILLION
DOLLARS INCLUDES TWO AND A HALF
MILLION. DOLLARS IN ONE TIME
COSTS FOR CONSULTANCY SERVICES
KNOW YOU HAD A COUPLE QUESTIONS
ALL ADDRESS THOSE NOW.
HOW WILL THIS PILOT DIFFER FROM
OTHER PILOTS PERFORMED IN
CALIFORNIA AND OREGON THE
ORIGINAL PILOT WAS A GREAT
SUCCESS BUT A PAY AT THE PUMP
MILEAGE REPORTING METHOD WAS NOT
INCLUDED IN THE ORIGINAL PILOT
PROGRAM?
AT THAT TIME THE STATE OF
TECHNOLOGY WAS RAPIDLY EVOLVING
AND COULD NOT BE INCORPORATED
INTO THE ACCELERATED PILOT
IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE.
IN OREGON THE PAY AT THE PUMP
MODEL WAS TESTED BUT THE STATE
OF TECHNOLOGY WAS GREATLY
LIMITED IN TWO THOUSAND SEVEN.
TO PUT IT IN PERSPECTIVE ORGANS
INITIAL PILOT WAS COMPLETED THE
SAME YEAR THE FIRST IPHONE WAS
RELEASED AND PRIOR TO ANDROID
SMARTPHONES BEING. INTRODUCED TO
THE MARKET.
SO.
PUMPS IN VEHICLES WERE BOTH
REQUIRED IN THERE PILOT TO BE
RETRO FITTED WITH ADDITIONAL
HARDWARE AND UPDATED SOFTWARE
AND AS A RESULT OREGON CITIZENS
SHOWED CONCERNS ABOUT THE COST
FOR GOVERNMENT ADMINISTRATION.
THE REQUIRED SUCH RETROFITTING.
EXECUTIVE WORK ON A DAILY TRIPS
CHARGING STATIONS ALSO. HERNIA
FOR LOOKING AT VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED WE GET CLOSE TO THE
FIVE MILLION DOLLAR OR FIVE
MILLION VEHICLE PULL. HER THOSE
ARE THE THINGS THAT WILL BE
EXPLORING IN THIS HOW WILL THIS
NEEDS SOME SORT OF DANGLE DEVICE
THAT GOES AND OR WILL IT BE.
IN THE CAR OR IS IT COULD BE ON
THE PALM.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE EXPLORING.
TO HAVE SOMEONE AND IF I CAN
STEVEN TECH WITH CALTRANS SO THE
PURPOSE OF THIS STUDY IS TO
ASSESS ALL THOSE DIFFERENT
OPTIONS IN FACT WE PUT OUT A
REQUEST FOR INFORMATION FOR
COMPANIES TO.
SUGGEST OPTIONS FOR HOW WE
MIGHT ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM OF OF
PAY AT THE PUMP.
AND WE'VE GOTTEN SOME OF THOSE
BACK SOME OF THEM ARE DONGLE
TYPE DEVICE THAT WE'VE ALREADY
TESTED SOME USE RFID TECHNOLOGY.
AND THERE'S A BUNCH OF OTHERS
THEY DON'T HAVE A LOT OF DETAIL
ON. BUT THAT'S THE PURPOSE OF
THIS STUDY IS TO LOOK AT SOME OF
THESE OPTIONS AND SEE THE STATE
OF TECHNOLOGY TODAY.
ALEJO.
OH YEAH WE'VE JUST NOTE THAT TOM
AS THE DEPARTMENT JUST MENTIONED
STATE THEY DID AN RFI TICKET NAM
SOME PROPOSALS TO.
CONDUCT THE PILOT.
ARE SAYING IS THEY'RE REVIEWING
THE RESULTS THE RFI RIGHT NOW.
WITHIN TO BE HELPFUL IF THEY
COULD PROVIDE SOME INFORMATION
TO THE LEGISLATURE ON YOU KNOW
EXACTLY WHAT THE METHODS ARE
GONNA BE IN THE COSTS.
PRIOR TO TAKING ACTION ON THE.
YEAH WE WERE GONNA DO WITH
QUESTIONS CENTER NIELSEN. TO THE
ROAD USAGE
CHARGE.
THAT THE. YOU KNOW I'VE HAD SOME
CONCERNS ABOUT RURAL AREAS WHERE
THEY HAVE TO TRAVEL I UNDERSTAND
THAT YOU HAD SOME STUDIES THUS
FAR THAT INDICATE THAT.
.
THAT'S NOT NECESSARILY A
NEGATIVE THAT THE AMOUNT OF
TRAVELING THAT SOMEONE HAVE TO
DO IN RURAL AREAS GO MUCH
FURTHER TO GET TO THEIR WORK. TO
WHAT WHAT WHAT STUDIES HAVE JUST
PUBLISHED IN THAT REGARD.
SO AGAIN STATEMENT CHECK WHAT
CALTRANS WITH REGARDS TO.
FOLKS WHO HAVE TO TRAVEL LONG
DISTANCES FOR WORK OR ANY OTHER
MEANS THEY'RE ALREADY PAYING A
TAX ON GASOLINE TO USE AND SO
WHEN THEY'RE TRAVELING ALONG
WHILE USING A LOT OF JAZZ.
THE INDEPENDENT LAW TAX ANYWAY
SO THE THE ROAD CHARGE WOULD
BASICALLY REPLACE THAT GAS TAX
WITH.
BUT ROAD CHARGE TAX INSTEAD
WHICH IS MORE EQUITABLE INSTEAD
OF HAVING THIS INTERMEDIARY OF
HOW MUCH GAS YOU USE IT'S A
DIRECT CHARGE FOR THAT AMOUNT OF
THESE OF THE ROAD.
SO IT'S JUST REPLACING ONE WITH
ANOTHER. THAT IS A LITTLE BIT
MORE OF A DIRECT CONNECTION
WITH.
THE USE OF THE HIGHWAY NOW HAVE
YOU MADE ANY KIND OF A. THAT WE
REVIEW OF THIS CIRCUMSTANCE
THOUGH. I EAT CONCEDE THAT AND
CARS ARE MOVING OKAY THEY'RE
GOING DISTANCES.
BUT IN CONGESTED AREAS.
WHERE THE CARS ARE?
NEARBY. PARKED ON THE FREEWAYS.
BURNING UP AN AWFUL LOT OF GAS.
DON'T WE NEED TO ACCOUNT FOR
THAT TO.
SO DO THE REALLY NICE THING
ABOUT A RHODE CHARGED
IMPLEMENTATION IS THAT YOU CAN
ACCOUNT FOR ANYTHING THAT YOU'D
LIKE TO SO YOU CAN ACCOUNT FOR.
TWELVE TIME YOU CAN ACCOUNT FOR.
THE VIA THE MILEAGE DRIVE AND
YOU CAN ACCOUNT FOR THE TYPE OF
VEHICLE YOU DRIVE YOU CAN ADJUST
TAXES ANYWHERE YOU WANT THERE'S
A NUMBER OF POLICY OPTIONS
BECOME AVAILABLE. WHEN YOU TAX.
THE SPECIFIC VEHICLE. IN A
SPECIFIC WAY INSTEAD OF JUST
CHARGING A GALLON OF GASOLINE SO
IT'S UP TO THE OF THE
LEGISLATURE POLICY MAKING.
COMMITTEES TO DECIDE HOW TO
CRAFT A TAXING THEM.
BUT CERTAINLY YOUR OPTIONS
BECOME MUCH GREATER WHEN YOU
HAVE THAT DATA FINER LEVEL OF
THE.
AND. I MAY DISAGREE WITH YOU ON
THAT BUT THANK YOU FOR THE
ANSWER.
GIVE.
CAN WE EXPECT.
JUNE TWENTY TWENTY THIS.
IF IT'S APPROVED AND.
THAT THE INFORMATION TO BE
BROUGHT THE REPORT TO BE
AVAILABLE TO THE.
.
LEGISLATURE.
IT'S TWO YEARS.
IF.
YES SUCKING. UP LET'S OPEN UP
THE PUBLIC HEARING THAT THE
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.
WHO?
OUR INTERESTED IN COMMENTING ON
THE UP PILOT EXTENSION OF THE
PILOT PROGRAM.
I WILL CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING WILL
HOLD THAT MATTER. OF LET'S MOVE
ONTO. THE INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
INFRASTRUCTURE.
HEY THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION REQUESTS OF ONE
TIME INCREASE OF UP TO TWO
MILLION DOLLARS IN STATE HIGHWAY
ACCOUNT FUNDS TO DEVELOP AN
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY ROADMAP.
THERE'S THIS ROADMAP WILL
PROVIDE THE GUIDANCE FOR
SUSTAINABLE AND ADAPTABLE
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
ENVIRONMENT. CONTINGENT UPON THE
COMPLETION THAN APPROVAL FROM
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
CALIFORNIA STATE TRANSPORTATION
AGENCY. AND THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY
PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE WOULD ALLOW
CALTRANS TO REQUEST A ONE TIME
INCREASE OF TWELVE MILLION
DOLLARS. FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF
EQUIPMENT THAT HAS REACHED ITS
END OF LIFE.
I THINK THAT WAS.
DURING.
EVERY OF OF ONE A CONCERN THAT
WE HAVE WITH THIS PROPOSAL IS
THAT.
.
I THINK IF YOU HEARD IT IT ONLY
ALLOWS ADMINISTRATIVE AGENCIES
TO REVIEW THE PLAN PRIOR TO
RELEASING THE FUNDING TO START
IMPLEMENTING IT.
AND WE THINK IT.
THIS DIMINISHES LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT THAT ON THE
LEGISLATURE SHOULD HAVE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW IT BEFORE
STARTING TO IMPLEMENT IT.
SO WE WOULD RECOMMEND APPROVING
THE FUNDING FOR THE PLAN THE TWO
MILLION DOLLARS BUT REJECTING
THE PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE
ALLOWING THEM. TO START
IMPLEMENTING AT MID YEAR OKAY.
OPEN THE PUBLIC HEARING ON THE
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC.
THAT WOULD HAVE A COMMENT ON
THE.
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
INFRASTRUCTURE REPLACEMENT.
CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING I'M BORED A
HOLE THIS ALSO TAKE OF.
TAKE A LOOK AT THE LA THOSE
COMMENTS.
LET'S MOVE ISSUE NUMBER FIVE A
PRIVACY IN ENTERPRISE SECURITY
ENHANCEMENTS.
OKAY THE DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION REQUESTS A
PERMANENT INCREASE OF FOUR
POSITIONS AND TEN POINT FOUR
MILLION DOLLARS IN STATE HIGHWAY
ACCOUNT FUNDS. TO IMPROVE THE
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
CYBERSECURITY PROGRAM THIS
REQUEST INCLUDES NINE POINT TWO
MILLION FOR SOFTWARE AND
HARDWARE PURCHASES.
THIS REQUEST AS THE SECOND WAVE
OF EFFORT TO ENHANCE CALTRANS
CYBERSECURITY PROFILE. INITIATED
IN FY SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN THESE
FUNDS WILL ADDRESS
VULNERABILITIES AND RISKS
IDENTIFIED IN A NUMBER OF
ASSESSMENTS AND AUDITS.
EVEN THESE QUESTIONS.
CAN CAN YOU HELP US WE'VE WE'RE
TRYING TO. GET OUR HANDS AROUND
THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE
OFFICE OF
CYBERSECURITY THAT WE HAVE AND
EACH OF THE AGENCIES AND
DEPARTMENTS UDERNEATH A BECAUSE
WE WE FIND THAT THE DAY WE DON'T
KNOW WHERE THEY. HAVE.
HOW IF YOU ARE YOU INDEPENDENTLY
COMING UP WITH YOUR OWN
CYBERSECURITY ARE YOU
COORDINATING SAID THE STATE'S
ALL ON THIS WE'VE GOT ONE BIG?
EXCEPT FOR SECURITY TECHNOLOGY
OFFICER CAN HELP SOUTH.
GOOD MORNING FRANCISCO ONE OF
THE DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY.
.
BORROWER OFFICER INFORMATION
SECURITY WE WE DO WORK WITH THE
DEPARTMENTS.
BUT THEY STILL HAVE THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF DOING OF THE
INFORMATION SECURITY FOR THAT
APARTMENTS THEY DO THEY ARE THEY
HAVE AN ASSESSMENT THAT'S DONE.
IN A IF THEY HAVE ISUES THAT
COME UP WITH A PLAN OF ACTION
FOR MILESTONES WHICH IS ACTUALLY
A. IT'S A CORRECTIVE ACTION PLAN
THAT IF THERE ARE ANY.
WITNESSES IN THEIR SECURITY
THIS TRACKS AND HELP SOME PLAN
DOING THAT.
.
NO THE CORRECTIONS
SO THERE IS LIKE.
AND OVERALL. IN ENTERPRISE VIEW
FROM THE PARTNER TECHNOLOGY BUT
EACH DEPARTMENT THEMSELVES
ACTUALLY HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF DOING THE.
SECURITY. AWARENESS AND AND.
WORK THAT'S DONE IN THE WITHIN
THE DEPARTMENT BUT ARE THEY
LEVERAGING YOUR EXPERTISE YES WE
WORK VERY CLOSELY TOGETHER IN
FACT ON THIS PROPOSAL THEY. THEY
PUT FORWARD A A ROADMAP THAT WE
REVIEWED WE AGREE WITH AND.
ACTUALLY THIS FUNDING IS GOING
TO HELP THEM ACTUALLY FINISH OUT
THE LAST THIRTY ITEMS ON THE
POLE M.. IT'S GOING TO HELP
THEM.
FIX THE REMAINING SIX
CYBERSECURITY FUNDAMENTAL
DOMAINS THAT ARE PUT TOGETHER A
PRIVACY OFFICE SO YES THEY WORK
VERY CLOSELY WITH US.
IN FACT ALL THE BCP'S IT HAVE
TO DO INFORMATION SECURITY OUR
OFFICE INFAMOUS COULD REVIEWS
THEM AND GIVES US AND PUT ON THE
OFFICE OKAY. ALEJO.
WE DON'T HAVE ANY CONCERNS AT
THE TOUCH OF.
BUT SUPERB PUBLIC HEARING ON
CYBERSECURITY HOLD ON THE AYE
OPENED WE WILL
DO THAT ITEM NUMBER SIX.
TOWARD FUND AUGMENTATION AND
VEHICLE INSURANCE INCREASE.
OKAY SO THIS WAS ACTUALLY TWO
DIFFERENT B. C. PIECE ALL OF US
TAKE IT IN ORDER.
SO WE'LL START WITH THE TOWARD
FUND AUGMENTATION THE DEPARTMENT
OF TRANSPORTATION REQUESTS A
PERMANENT INCREASE OF SEVEN
MILLION DOLLARS. IN STATE
HIGHWAY ACCOUNT FUNDS FOR TORT
COSTS THESE FUNDS ARE NECESSARY
TO PAY JUDGMENTS. NEGOTIATED
SETTLEMENTS IN LITIGATION COSTS
STEMMING FROM TORT LAWSUITS
AGAINST THE DEPARTMENT.
THE REQUESTED CLUES PROVISIONAL
LANGUAGE FOR AN ADDITIONAL
TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS SUBJECT
TO APPROVAL BY THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE WITH NOTIFICATION TO THE
JOINT LEGISLATIVE BUDGET
COMMITTEE.
AND CSUS JUDGMENT AND WE BUT WE
GOTTA PAY THE JUDGMENTS RIGHT
HOCKLEY. BUT.
ALRIGHT
CONTINUOUS.
SO I KNOW YOU HAD SOME SPECIFICS
SPECIFIC QUESTION HOW OF THE
IDENTIFIED FUNDING REDUCTIONS
IMPACTED OTHER CALTRANS
PROGRAMS.
BECAUSE THESE OUR OPERATIONAL
EXPENSE FUNDS THAT PART.
THE THE HAS HAD TO SPREAD THE
IMPACT
ACROSS ALL OVER OTHER PROGRAMS
IN THE SECOND HALF OF THE FISCAL
YEAR.
THESE REDIRECTION SLOW PROJECT
PROJECT IN PROGRAM DELIVERY IN
THE EFFECTIVE PROGRAMS AND
FORCED THE PROGRAMS TO RE
PRIORITIZE AND RESCHEDULE THEIR
WORK. IN THE MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
FOR EXAMPLE WE'VE HAD TO DESCEND
CUMBER IN DELAY MAINTENANCE
CONTRACTS.
THAT WE WOULD HAVE USED TO
PERFORM PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE OR
OTHER MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES ON
THE HIGHWAY SYSTEM.
IN ARE CAPITAL OUTLAY SUPPORT
PROGRAM FOR EXAMPLE WE HAD TO
DELAY FIELD AND OFFICE EQUIPMENT
PURCHASES. FOR THE ENGINEERS
THAT DESIGNED IN OVERSEE OUR
CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS.
IN OUR ADMINISTRATION PROGRAM
WHICH IS RESPONSIBLE FOR
MAINTAINING. OUR OFFICE
BUILDINGS WE'VE HAD TO DELAY
SOME BUILDING MAINTENANCE AND
MINOR BUILDING IMPROVEMENTS AND
ACROSS ALL PROGRAMS IT COMES
DOWN TO DELAYING THINGS SUCH AS
TRAINING. COMPUTER REPLACEMENT
OR OTHER EQUIPMENT PURCHASES.
THESE KINDS OF UNEXPECTED
IMPACTS.
OR SOMETHING THAT CAN BE
HANDLED WITH UNCOMFORTABLE BELT
TIGHTENING IF IT HAPPENS ONCE
OR SOMETIMES TWICE IN A ROW BUT
IT'S UNSUSTAINABLE IN THE LONG
RUN.
ARE I KNOW SIR NOW SINCE WE HAD
TO TOUR CLAIMS FOR EIGHTY SIX
MILLION BUCKS THERE'S SOME
DISCUSSION ABOUT STATE.
LIABILITY LIMITS.
IS THAT JUST.
I DON'T WANT TO SET THE HOUSE ON
FIRE HERE UPBRINGING THAT.
THAT UP BUT IS THAT IS THAT JUST
PEOPLE'S.
KICKING TIRES AND TALKING ABOUT
THAT OR IS THAT A IS THAT SOME
SORT OF PROPOSAL.
I ALEJO MONEY LET YOU GO FIRST
NEEDED FROM US LIKE LAST YEAR
THE LEGISLATURE ASKS US TO LOOK
MORE DEEPLY INTO THE THE SECOND.
HALF OF THIS THIS PROPOSAL ON
THE VEHICLE INSURANCE COST
INCREASES WHICH IT'S A SIMILAR
ISSUE WITH THE TWO.
ON OUR MAIN FINDING WAS THAT IT
WAS A HANDFUL OF VERY LARGE
VEHICLE INSURANCE CLAIMS FOR YOU
KNOW FIVE SIX MILLION DOLLARS
EACH THAT WAS DRIVING THE
PREMIUM INCREASE.
ARM. AND ONE OPTION THAT THAT WE
MENTIONED IN OUR REPORT TO
ADDRESS THAT WAS TO ESTABLISH A
STATE LIABILITY.
LIMIT.
ARE CURRENTLY THE MAJORITY OF
OTHER STATES I THINK BE FOUND
THIRTY THREE OTHERS HAVE HAVE A
STATUTORY LIMIT. CALIFORNIA DOES
PROHIBIT PUNITIVE DAMAGES BUT
OTHER THAN THAT IT DOESN'T HAVE
HAVE A LIMIT RIGHT NOW.
OF COURSE THE TRADEOFF IS THAT
COM KNOW SOME CLAIMANTS WOULD
RECEIVE LESS THAN THAN THE FULL
AMOUNT THAT THEY THINK. THEY
THEY NEED FOR THEIR INJURIES AND
AND DAMAGES.
.
PAYNE SPIRAL. MY OF MY PHONE THE
RING AND OFF THE HOOK CENTER
BUSH LOOKED CONCERNED ABOUT THE.
ALLOWING OF THAT. ADDITIONAL
TWENTY MILLION FOR TORT.
WITH NOTHING BUT A REPORT TO
THE LEGISLATURE. OF AND FINANCE
TELL ME WHAT'S BEHIND THAT
REQUEST.
IN OTHER WORDS THAT YOU COULD GO
AHEAD AND OBLIGATE
THAT ADDITIONAL TWENTY MILLION
DOLLARS BUT. ALL THE LEGISLATURE
GET SYSTEM BE INFORMED.
PAYMENT NOW WITH DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE IT'S MORE THAN
INFORMATIONAL LETTER THAT GOES
OUT.
DIDN'T WE WOULD SEND THE JAIL
BC NOTIFICATION LETTER.
ENDED UP ONE OF THE LEGISLATURE
HAS ANY CONCERNS THEY WOULD LET
US KNOW AND WE WOULD I DISCUSS
WITH THE LEGISLATURE BEFORE
MAKING IT APPROVAL. OF ANY
AUGMENTATION UP TO THE TWENTY
MILLION.
IT IS THAT THE KIND OF A STEP
TOWARDS.
IMPOSING A CAP.
PHONE TOWARD.
EL NINO LIABILITY CAP.
YOU KNOW.
THE CHAIR MENTIONED THAT THAT'S
A VERY SENSITIVE ISSUE.
BUT SOME OF THESE LAWSUITS
BE VERY EXPENSIVE.
THANK YOU.
IF I UNDERSTAND THE TWENTY
MILLION THAT.
THAT THAT CAP IS NOTHING IS
THAT.
THESE ARE JUDGMENTS IF YOU HAVE
TO PAY THE CHECHENS ANYWAY SEE
YOU PULL MONEY FROM THESE OTHER.
.
PLACES AND AND EVEN IF IT'S ON
APPEAL YOU STILL HAVE TO PUT THE
MONEY IN HAND IN THE ACCOUNT IT
COLLECTS INTEREST YET A DADA SO
YOU'RE WHAT YOU'RE SAYING IS IF
WE HAVE. AN EXTRA TWENTY MILLION
WE'RE NOT GOING T COMPROMISE
THE OTHER.
CATEGORIES THAT THAT CALTRANS
THAT ON THAT THING THE OF THE
TOTAL LIE BILL GETS IF. THAT'S
NOT FOR TODAY.
YES THAT IS CORRECT WITH THE
EXTRA MONEY WOULD BE AVAILABLE
FOR COACH HAS USE FOR ITS
MANDATORY PAYMENTS OF JUDGMENTS
HEART LET'S OPEN PUBLIC HEARING
ON LIABILITY ISSUES.
ANYBODY IN PUBLIC HAVE A
COMMENT.
LET'S CODES CLOSE IT CENTER
STERN. YOU HAVE A COMPACT
QUESTION.
YEAH THANK YOU MISTER JUST QUICK
QUESTION THIS ITEM SO FROM THE
LA OVER OTHERS.
ATTORNEYS BEYOND THIS LIABILITY
LIMITS YOU'RE TALKING BAD OTHER
MANAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES MEAN.
OR OR FROM THE DIRECTOR SELF
JUST WHAT DO YOU DO IN PROACTIVE
LEADERS FOR TO LIMIT THIS GONNA
HOW DO WE. HOW DO WE COME UP
WITH HIS ESTIMATE SIR ON A ON A
GO FORWARD BASIS JUST BECAUSE
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT? KINDS OF
THINGS ALWAYS HAPPEN AND IT'S
SOMETIMES CAN BE HARD TO
ANTICIPATE SO JUST RIGHT SIZING
THIS POT AND JUST GETTING A
SENSE OF.
HIGHER LOOKING FOR TO MAYBE
FIRST TO LA YOU KNOW
ALTERNATIVES TO THAT IDEA AND
THEN.
MAYBE SOME INSIGHT FROM THE
DIRECTOR YEAH I KNOW I KNOW
REPORT WE ALSO DID LOOK AT.
.
YOU KNOW THAT'S PRACTICES FOR.
MINIMIZING VEHICLE INSURANCE
COSTS ON MEDICARE TESTS THAT THE
DEPARTMENT WAS DOING A LOT OF
THE BEST PRACTICES IN TERMS OF.
ELIMINATING WHO CAN DRIVE
VEHICLES TRAINING THEIR
EMPLOYEES CRITICALLY MAINTENANCE
WORKERS FOR DRIVING SNOW PAS AND
THINGS LIKE THAT.
I MEAN OF COURSE THERE COULD
PROBABLY BE ADDITIONAL
OPPORTUNITIES COME MAYBE THEY'RE
FOR THEM TO EXPLORE ABOUT WE
FOUND THAT THERE GENERALLY.
.
CONFORMING WITH BEST PRACTICES.
IN TERMS OF.
HOW THE COSTS ARE CALCULATED
USUALLY IT'S DONE Y LOOKING AT
HISTORICAL AVERAGES AND THEN
PROTECTING?
AND ISN'T PRO SOME OF THESE
TOWARD CLAIMS INCLUDE. DESIGN
FLOSSER NEGLIGENCE IS TO
CALTRAIN SCENE BECAUSE HIGHWAY
WHATEVER BILL HAS IT TURNED THIS
WAY AND THEY'VE HAD THREE
ACCIDENTS HERE IN WE'VE NEVER
HAD THE MONEY TO CORRECT IT
SOMEHOW HERE COMES THE FOURTH
ACCIDENT SO.
THAT'S NOT THE WHOLE CHUNK OF
CHANGE BUT THAT'S A THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT MUST.
HOPEFULLY IS A CONCERN TO THE
DIRECTOR IS WE'VE WE LOOK AT
THEM BACKWARDS WHERE WE'VE HAD
THESE PROBLEMS AND WE GO IN AND
WE CHANGE THOSE DESIGNED SO
THAT.
THAT'S AT LEAST MITIGATED.
OKAY LET'S MOVE ON THAT WILL
HOLDTHAT ITEM OPEN ITEM AND
LET'S MOVE ON THE AYE AYE ISSUE
NUMBER SEVEN.
THE INSPECTOR GENERAL AND I
BELIEVE.
SHE IS HERE.
THANK YOU.
I THINK IF THEY'RE GOING TO COME
BACK FOR THE IMPRESSION.
FOURTEEN SELECT TECH.
AND.
GENERAL ORTEGA WELCOME. THANK
YOU.
GOOD MORNING.
.
AGAIN IT RIGHT NOW ORTEGA
INSPECTOR GENERAL CALTRANS THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR THE OPPORTUNITY
TO. APPEAR BEFORE YOU TODAY AND
I ORGANIZE MY REMARKS REALLY
AROUND THE QUESTIONS THAT YOU
HAD RAISED IN THE AGENDA SOME
POPULAR JUST UMP INTO THAT AND
THEN STOP ME IF YOU PROCEED ONE
MONTH.
ASK ANY MORE UP THE FIRST
QUESTION IS REGARDING THE
CURRENT STAFFING LEVEL IN THE
OFFICE AND WHETHER THE OFFICE IS
FULLY STAFFED.
LAST YEAR IN THE BUDGET YOU
PROVIDED TEN NEW POSITIONS FOR
THE INSPECTOR GENERAL'S OFFICE
INCLUDING MY POSITION. OF THOSE
POSITIONS SIX WERE NEW AUDITOR'S
AND A FOUR OF THOSE AUDITOR'S
HAVE ACCEPTED.
OFFERS AND WILL BE STARTING IN
THE OFFICE IN THE NEXT FEW
WEEKS.
BUT TO ARE IN THE PROCESS WERE
DOING THE A HR REFERENCE CHECK
OFTEN.
ASPECT OF THAT OF THEIR TWO
POSITIONS THAT ARE.
THAT CONTINUE TO BE VACANT ONE
IS A RESEARCH WRITER IN THE
OTHER AN ANALYST AND.
I HAVE SOME IDEAS FOR HOW TO
FILL THOSE POSITIONS ON IPOD
TOUCH ON THAT A FEW MINUTES I
TALK ABOUT THE WORK PLAN.
AND THEN FINALLY THE GOVERNOR A
RECENTLY APPOINTED A DEPUTY
INSPECTOR GENERAL FOR DIVERSITY
AND SMALL BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT
AND THAT'S MS DEBBIE LUMPKIN AND
SHE STARTS ON MONDAY.
AND I'M. THRILLED TO HAVE HER
EXPERTISE IN THE ER CONTRACTING
WITH SMALL. BUSINESS AND A
MINORITY OWNED BUSINESSES AND
SHALL BE FOCUSED AND.
HAVE LEAD RESPONSIBILITY FOR
THE REQUIREMENTS UNDER S. B. ONE
OF THREE THAT YOU MIGHT RECALL
WAS PASSED AFTER SP ONE. AND.
FOCUSES CALTRANS OF OUTREACH
ATTENTION ON OF THOSE BUSINESSES
AND AN IMPROVING THE CONTRACTING
RATES WITH THOSE FOLKS.
.
I THINK I WANT ONE THING THAT I
WOULD MENTION I THINK I THINK
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE IS THE.
THE BCP THAT CREATED THAT TEN
POSITIONS KIND OF OVERLAID THE
INSPECTOR GENERAL ON TOP OF AN
EXISTING. AUDIT PROGRAM AT
CALTRANS AND SO THAT THAT
EXISTING GROUP OF FOLKS.
IS THERE ARE THE MAJORITY OF
THOSE AUDITORS ARE DOING WORK
THAT I WOULD TO I'M CONSIDER
MORE WORK ON BEHALF OF THE
DEPARTMENT THEY REVIEW.
CONTRACTS THAT COME IN THEY ARE
DOING OF VERIFICATION OF
REIMBURSEMENT REQUESTS.
DOT THAT WORK ABSOLUTELY NEEDS
TO CONTINUE I DO SEE IT AS A
LITTLE A DIFFERENT.
TYPE OF WORK BECAUSE IT'S
REALLY ON BEHALF OF THE PROGRAM
AND SO I THINK I'M OVER OVER
TIME AS I.
LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE
DOING.
AND BE THAT I WANT TO COME BACK
AND TALK
WE ORGANIZING.
THINGS IN SOME WAY.
TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE'S A
CLEAR DIVIDE BETWEEN WORK THAT
IS DONE ON BEHALF OF THE
DEPARTMENT AND WORK THAT'S DONE
ON BEHALF OF THE INSPECTOR
GENERAL.
AND THEN.
FINALLY THERE ARE.
SEVERAL POSITIONS ON EIGHT
STAFF THAT FOCUSED ON PRIMARILY
ON INVESTIGATIONS
AND THOSE ARE FOLKS THAT ARE
INVESTIGATE.
ALLEGATIONS OF MISCONDUCT
THE.
REVIEW AND RESPOND TO COSTA
COME INTO THE ETHICS HELPLINE WE
HAVE AN ETHICS HELPLINE A
CALTRANS THAT'S RECENTLY BEEN
MOVED UNDER THE INSPECTOR
GENERAL'S OFFICE.
DOT SO RECEIVES ABOUT TWO
HUNDRED FIFTY CALLS PER YEAR.
AND THEN THOSE FOLKS ALSO
ASSISTED US STATE AUDITOR WHEN
THE STATE AUDITOR HAS A
WHISTLEBLOWER COMPLAINT REALLY
TO CALTRANS SOMETIMES THEY ASK
FOR OUR FOLKS ASSISTANCE IN
RESPONDING TO THOSE.
OR EVEN A CHP OR.
LOCAL DISTRICT ATTORNEY MIGHT
ASK FOR ASSISTANCE IN ARE
GATHERING INFORMATION ON THOSE
FOLKS OF HELP ON THOSE CASES AS
WELL.
SO I THINK THAT THE DIRECT
ANSWER TO IS THE OFFICE
CURRENTLY FULLY STAFFED.
I THINK IT IS I THINK I THINK
WE HAVE.
THE STAFF
IN PLACE NOW TO DO ON WHAT I
EXPECT WILL BE WORKING ON IN THE
BUDGET YEAR. UP BUT IT MAY BE
THE CASE THAT.
WE NEED TO TO DO SOME
REORGANIZATION AND AND MAYBE
REPORTERS A XIN.
AS WE MOVE FORWARD WITH AN
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN AUDIT PLAN.
ANY QUESTIONS ON THE STAFFING.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR REPORT
QUESTIONS OF.
A GENERAL ORTEGA.
I.
THE NEXT THE NEXT QUESTION WAS
ON.
.
BY HOW HOW THE OFFICE PLANTS
IDENTIFY AUDITS AND AND.
PROPOSAL AND EIGHTEEN NINETEEN
ON THE PLAN OUGHT REALLY I THINK
THIS IS IS REALLY THE KEY ISSUE
FOR INSPECTOR GENERAL IS HOW
DOES THE ALBUM.
OFFICE IDENTIFY AN AUDIT PLAN.
I I THINK IT GOES TO.
CENTER NIELSEN YOU TALKED ABOUT
PUBLIC TRUST IN THE USE OF THE
S. B. ONE DOLLARS AND I THINK
THAT THE KEY TO BEING SUCCESSFUL
IN THIS ROLE. IS THAT THE THE
PUBLIC LEGISLATURE THE SECRETARY
THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE THAT
EVERYONE HAS CONFIDENCE THAT
WERE CHOOSING.
THE THE RIGHT THINGS TO AUDIT
THAT WE'RE MAKING
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE FAIR
AND REASONABLE.
WHAT I'VE DONE IS ASK THE STAFF
TO DO A RISK ASSESSMENT TO LOOK
AT?
THE THE AUDITS THAT THEY'VE
DONE IN PAST YEARS ON BOTH
INTERNALLY WITHIN CALTRANS THE
AUDITS THEY DO OF LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS OF LOCAL
CONTRACTORS.
AND AND.
.
PROBLEM MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS ON
A WHERE THE HIGHEST RISKS ARE.
WHAT I PROPOSE TO DO IS
ESTABLISH A COMMITTEE THAT IS A
A COMMITTEE OF?
INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE OUTSIDE
THE DEPARTMENT I THINK IN THE
PAST MOST OF THE ON A PLAN WAS
FOCUSED ON.
INTERNAL.
COMMENTS ON PROPOSED AUDITS AND
SO THIS EXTERNAL COMMITTEE WOULD
BE.
HAVE REPRESENTATIVES FROM THE
ARAB AGENCY
FROM THE DC AND FROM THE
LEGISLATURE AND THAT WOULD BE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO RECEIVE INPUT AND
AND A FEEDBACK ON WHAT WE SEE AS
THE THE HIGHEST RISKS AND AND
WHAT THE AUDIT PLAN SHOULD LOOK
LIKE. ON IF THIS PROCESS BY
WORKS WELL I THINK YOU TO TO MY
MIND IT'S A AWAY RELEASED
ESTABLISHING A PROCEDURE FOR THE
INSPECTOR GENERAL'S OFFICE THAT
WOULD. LAST ME ON MY TERM AND
REALLY BE THE WAY THAT.
WE PROVIDE THE STRUCTURE AND
ACCOUNTABILITY THAT THE SP ONE
ITEM.
CREATION OF THE INSPECTOR
GENERAL EXPECTED.
BY WHERE THE AUDITS ARE HELL
BENT ON THE EXECUTION ONCE YOU
YOU MAKE YOUR DECISION THAT THIS
IS FOR ONE OF. WHAT WE WANNA DO
ONE ON TO DISS?
HOW WILL THAT WORK? ASSERTED
THAT WE DO WE HAVE TO IDENTIFY
WHAT TO AUDIT AND IN EXECUTION
ON THE AUDITS YOU'RE PUTTING
YOUR TEAM TOGETHER IT'S.
MONDAY'S INVOLVING MORE PEOPLE
ON THE TARA.
I'D I PRESUME OR I DON'T KNOW
BUT I'LL HEAR FROM YOU IT'S LIKE
IT'S LIKE HILL EXECUTED LIKE
REGULAR AUDITOR'S WILL DO. BATON
AND EXECUTION RIGHT IS THERE
ANYTHING PARTICULARLY DIFFERENT
FROM YOUR AUDITS THAN.
A HOME I DON'T THINK SO I THINK
THAT'S EXACTLY RIGHT YOU WOULD
SEE AN ADOPTION OF AN OF A. LOT
OF PLAN NINE THE EXPECTING BY
THE END OF JUNE WE WOULD PUT OUT
AN EIGHTEEN NINETEEN AUDIT PLAN
IT WOULD SPECIFY THE SPECIFIC
AUDITS THAT WE WERE GOING TO
CONDUCT OVER THE COURSE OF THE
YEAR. PHAM AYE I THINK ANY
AUDITOR.
.
THE ANY KIND OF AUDIT OFFICE HAS
THINGS COME UP THROUGHOUT THE
YEAR THAT MAYBE SHIFT FOCUS ON
AND THAT WOULD HAPPEN AS WELL.
WE WOULD.
.
WE WOULD IDENTIFY THOSE THINGS
SO IT WAS CLEAR WHAT WE WOULD BE
WORKING ON I THINK ONE THING
THAT MIGHT BE DIFFERENT ABOUT.
THE INSPECTOR GENERAL FOR
CALTRANS AS SB ONE.
OTHER SPECIFIES IS THAT THERE
IS A LOT OF FOCUS ON BOB
EFFICIENCY.
EFFECTIVE ECONOMICAL USE OF THE
RESOURCES THAT ARE PROVIDED BY
SQ ONE TO THE DEPARTMENT I THINK
THE LANGUAGE IS PRETTY CLEAR
THAT THERE'S A BROAD CHARGE.
FOR THE INSPECTOR GENERAL TO
LOOK INTO THOSE ISSUE SO I THINK
THAT GIVE SOME FLEXIBILITY TO
LOOK AT MAKING RECOMMENDATIONS
THAT ARE BROADER THAN JUST.
.
YOU KNOW THIS AUDIT FOUND THE
PROJECT
OVERSPENT OR DIDN'T BILL
PROPERLY AND YOU MUST NOW REPAY
THE FIVE
I THINK IT ALLOWS LOOKING I'M.
MORE BROADLY INTO OPERATIONAL
ISSUES AND UP WHERE EFFICIENCIES
CAN BE ACHIEVED.
CENTER.
QUESTION ON THIS.
IDENTIFICATION AND SORT
EXECUTING AUDITS YEAH IN IN A
BIT MORE GENERALLY SECURE OF
IT'S OKAY WITH YOU I JUST.
LOOK AT AS YOU ARE AND YOU GET
YOUR TEAM ASSEMBLED.
I'M IN A AND DISTILLING TO CHECK
IN AYE AS THE LAST TIME WE WERE
TALKING ABOUT THE OFFICE RIGHT.
THAT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE
EXPENDITURES TO BE A SET IT UP
CAN JUST GIVE US.
TWO MINUTES OR LESS JUST AN
OVERVIEW THE CHALLENGES THAT YOU
FACE COMING INTO THE JOB. A IN
WHAT YOU SEE OVER THE NEXT SIX
MONTHS IN THE YEAR IF YOU DON'T
TIME TO YOU TO SEE A IN
OBVIOUSLY WOULD LIKE ME THE
POSITION SURE.
.
I THINK.
.
THE CHALLENGES ARE THINGS THAT
ARE NOT SPECIFIC TO UMD
INSPECTOR GENERAL'S OFFICE
BETTER PROBABLY.
.
CHALLENGES THAT.
STATE ENTITIES FACE MORE
BROADLY THE HIRING PROCESS CAN
BE QUITE SLOW.
THE.
.
THAT EFFORT FOR EXAMPLE ONE ONE
OF THE POSITIONS WAS CLASSIFIED
AS A HIT IN A SPLIT TO SPECIFIC
CLASSIFICATION I I'M NOT SURE
IT'S QUITE WHAT I NEED AND SO I
WANT TO SHIFT THAT TO BEING
SOMETHING ELSE IT TAKES SEVERAL
MONTHS TO GET THROUGH THAT
PROCESS. SO THERE ARE THERE
THINGS LIKE THAT THAT I THINK
HAVE HAVE SLOWED ME DOWN A
LITTLE BIT.
I THINK THERE IS A CHALLENGE IN.
HAVING A THE NEW PERSON WITH A
VERY SPECIFIC STATUTORY CHARGE.
COME IN AND TRY TO BE
INCORPORATED INTO AN EXISTING
INTERNAL AUDIT CHOP AND THAT'S
WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE SO TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT OKAY WHAT WHAT ARE
FOLKS DOING TODAY WHAT SHOULD
THEY CONTINUE TO DO. HOW DOES
THAT FIT INTO THE OVERALL
MISSION OF?
OF LOOKING AT S. B. ONE.
YOU KNOW AS I I THINK THAT
THERE. AYE I'VE SPENT MORE TIME
ON WHAT I THINK OF IS MORE THE
KIND OF CITY A BUREAUCRATIC
ISSUES THAN I HAD EXPECTED TO I
EXPECTED TO BE MORE LIKE LET'S.
COME UP WITH TOPICS AND JUMP
INTO THE PROCESS AND. THAT'S A
BEEN A LITTLE SLOWER AND AND I
THINK THE OTHER THING IS.
.
IT IT TAKES A LITTLE LONGER TO
FIGURE OUT HOW TO CONVENE A
GROUP OF PEOPLE THAT YOU WANT TO
PROVIDE INPUT TO YOU IT TAKES A
LITTLE LONGER TO. GET
UNCOMFORTABLE WITH THE IDEA OF
GETTING COM.
DIVERSE IN INPUT INTO OUGHT WHAT
MIGHT BE AUDITED SO THOSE ARE
SOME OF THE CHALENGES THAT I'VE
SEEN I THINK.
IT IT'S STARTING TO COME
TOGETHER AND IN A MORE CLEAR WAY
TO ME AND I'M I'M ENCOURAGED BY.
HE'S NEVER.
AT THE PACE YOU WANT RIGHT. YA
IN CANADA LEAD TO CYCLE WITH ANY
SIGNIFICANT POSITION YOU HAVE TO
DEAL WITH THE DAY TO DAY AND
THEN OBVIOUSLY THE MISSION. AND
THAT DAY TO DAY CAN BE A FIRE
HOSE ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU FIRST
GET STARTED IN ITS ALSO ABOUT
CULTURE RIGHT. MERE IT'S THE ONE
EIGHTY WITHIN A PRE EXISTING
OFFICE IT'S NEVER. BUT INDUSTRY
FOR MYSELF IT'S NEVER EASY SO
FRIGHTENED. THAT IF YOU WANT TO
COMMENT ON THAT NOW I BET
PRITCHETT THOSE COMMENTS AND
THAT'S RIGHT. THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THAT'S WHAT FUNDED THAT HAD THE
WORK PLAN FOR THAT REPORT TO THE
LEGISLATURE SO I'M THE WORK
PLAN.
IT I WILL SAY THAT I I HOPE TO
ISSUE A. A SHORT REPORT IN JUNE
THAT WOULD REALLY JUST BE KIND
OF AN INTERMITTENT THAT SIZE
HERE THE THINGS THAT WE PUT IN
PLACE. THE HIRING UPDATE.
.
KIND OF.
IN. SOME THAT MAYBE A SUMMARY
OF SOME OF THE PRODUCTS THAT
HAVE BEEN COMPLETED IN THE IN
THIS TIME PERIOD SINCE I STATED
BUT THE THE REAL MEAT OF THE
REPORTING TO THE LEGISLATURE THE
GOVERNOR THE SECRETARY WOULD BE
BEGINNING IN NOVEMBER AND I
ENVISIONED IT AS A NOVEMBER
REPORT. THAT LOOKS BACK
ON THE PAST
SCHOOL YEARS ACTIVITIES IT WOULD
INCLUDE A SUMMARY OF KEY AUDIT
FINDINGS.
.
I THINK IT WOULD.
KIND OF HIGHLIGHT
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN
MADE I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT THAT S. B. ONE TALKS ABOUT
THAT IS PERHAPS NOT BEEN DONE IN
THE PAST IS LOOKING BACK AT PAST
AUDITS AND SAYING. HAVE THINGS
THAT HAVE BEEN AISED BEFORE BEN
BEN ADDRESSED AND I THINK THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT IS SO OFTEN A
CHALLENGE AND SOMETHING THAT WE
WOULD FOCUS ON IN THAT REPORT.
.
THIS IS ONE AREA. THAT I WANTED
TO RETURN TO ON THAT THE TWO
VACANCIES THAT REMAIN THAT THE
AUDITS.
THAT ARE THERE FINALIZED IN THE
DEPARTMENT ARE POSTED ON THE
DEPARTMENT'S WEBSITE BUT I THINK
THAT THAT'S.
IT'S NOT SUFFICIENT FOR WHAT I
SEE AS.
AS MY ROLE I WOULD LIKE TO
REALLY HAVE
OVERHAUL THE WEBSITE HOW THAT
HAS A CLEAR INSPECTOR GENERAL'S
OFFICE WEBSITE. THAT POST THESE
KEY FINDINGS THAT.
IDENTIFIES THE RECOMMENDATIONS
THAT HAVE BEEN MADE THAT MAKES
IT EASY FOR THE PUBLIC AND FOR
ANYONE WHO'S INTERESTED TO BE
ABLE TO FIND. THOSE
RECOMMENDATIONS AND FIND THE
ANNUAL REPORT THAT SORT OF THING
I THINK THAT.
BE BEING ABLE TO HAVE A A
CLEARER WAY OF COMMUNICATING A
PROVIDING THE TRANSPARENCY ABOUT
WHAT'S GOING ON.
IT'S IT'S A A BIG PART OF WHY
THE INSPECTOR GENERAL IS CREATED
AND SO I THINK THAT'S.
SO THAT THE FOLKS THAT I.
WANT TO HIRE ARE ARE REALLY
GOING TO LEAD DOT AFFERENTS
PROBABLY MARVA COMMUNICATIONS.
A WEB DESIGNER TYPE POSITION.
SO THAT'S THE PLAN TO THE WORK
I THINK THAT THERE WILL BE AN
ANNUAL REPORT I THINK YOU KNOW
THAT THE LEGISLATION SAYS AT
AND-AND AT LEAST ANNUAL REPORT
BUT
CERTAINLY I CAN.
APPEAR BEFORE A COMMITTEE AT ANY
TIME TALK TO ANY OF YOU DIRECTLY
I. OPEN TO WHATEVER TYPE OF
COMMUNICATION AND INFORMATION
THAT YOU NEED DIRECTLY.
Q. ANY UPDATES ON RISK OR
PROBLEMS AT WITH IMPLEMENTATION
SO FAR SO THERE ARE TWO.
SP ONE RELATED AUDITS THAT WERE
UNDER WAY WHEN I WHEN I CAME AND
ONE IS.
RELATED TO THE ESTABLISHMENT OF
THE BASELINE OF.
THE ISSUES IN S. B. ONE WHERE
THERE THAT THE CLEAR PERFORMANCE
OUTCOMES THE PAVEMENT THE
CULVERTS THE FIXING BRIDGES SO
WE HAVE.
DONE A REVIEW OF WHAT THE
DEPARTMENT IS PROPOSING AS A
BASELINE AND I THINK THAT THAT'S
IMPORTANT TO ESTABLISH BECAUSE
THERE'S GOING TO BE CONSTANT
REPORTING BACK TO YOU ABOUT THE
PROGRESS AND AND YOU NEED TO BE.
CONFIDENT THAT THEY'RE SO
INAPPROPRIATE BASELINE SO I
THINK THERE WILL BE SOME
RECOMMENDATIONS THERE ON HOW TO
BE CLEAR.
ABOUT WHAT MEASUREMENTS ARE
BEING USED AND HOW THAT'LL BE
FUN TRY
OVER TIME.
AND THEN THE OTHER ONE IS ON.
THE REQUIRED EFFICIENCY REPORT
DE UM.
IT'S REQUIRED TO.
CHIEF A ONE HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLAR EFFICIENCY SAVINGS AND.
WE HAVE RECENTLY STARTED TO
LOOK AT WHAT THEY'RE PROPOSED.
CHANGES IN THE DEPARTMENT ARE
TO ACHIEVE THAT EFFICIENCY AND I
THINK THIS WILL BE PROBABLY A
MULTI STEP EFFORT WHERE WE FIRST
LOOK AT.
DID DOES THE DEPARTMENT HAVE
THE CONTROLS IN PLACE TO
ACTUALLY ACHIEVE THOSE
EFFICIENCIES THAT THEY'RE
PROPOSING AND THEN IN LATER
YEARS PERHAPS ACTUALLY YOU INTO
SOME SORT OF AUDIT ON ON OF
WHETHER THOSE DOLLARS WERE.
ACHIEVED ACCOUNTED FOR AND THEN
I I THINK OUR EIGHTEEN NINETEEN
ON A PLAN IS WHAT WILL REALLY
LAY OUT BIG PICTURE RISKS WHAT
WE SEE AS OUR OVERALL RESEARCH
DEPARTMENT AND THEN SPECIFIC TO.
ASK YOU ONE I THINK THE. ISSUE
THE SENATE MCGUIRE RAISED ON THE
HIRING BUT AGAIN NOT NOT
ENTIRELY UNIQUE TO CALTRANS IS A
THE STATE OVERALL HAS SOME
CHALLENGES IN SUCCESSION
PLANNING AND HIRING BUT I THINK.
DEBILITY TO DO THE HIRING IS
CERTAINLY ONE OF THE AREAS WILL
BE LOOKING AYE I WAS UP A BIG
PICTURE ABOUT CONCERN FOR THE
DEPARTMENT.
IT'S JUST AN INFORMATIONAL Y.
AND THERE'S NO ACTION TO BE
TAKEN BUT SINCE.
WE HAVE THE PUBLIC HEARS THE
PUBLIC LIKE TO ANYBODY IN THE
PUBLIC LIKE TO COME FORWARD ON
THE. UPDATE ON THE INSPECTOR
GENERAL.
OKAY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH THANKS FOR
THE REPORT NOW WE HAVE SPECIAL
ISSUE ON AN UPDATE FROM CALTRANS
ON THE STORM WATER.
.
CIRCUMSTANCES THIS THE PERMIT.
A WITH THE SAME CISCO REGIONAL
WATER.
CALL THE CONTROL BOARD ISSUE THE
NOTICE VIOLATION IN THE.
TWO THOUSAND AND SIXTEEN
DECEMBER.
WELCOME BACK.
NK CHAU THE REGIONAL WATER BOARD
IS CONTENDING THAT CALTRANS IS
NON COMPLIANT WITH THE NATIONAL.
POLLUTION DISCHARGE ELIMINATION
SYSTEM MORE NPDES PERMIT. DUE TO
FAILURE TO DEMONSTRATE TIMELY
IMPLEMENTATION OF TRASH CONTROL
MEASURES IN THE BAY AREA.
THE REGIONAL WATER BOARD IS
DISSATISFIED WITH THE PROGRESS
CALTRANS HAS MADE TO ADDRESS
TRASH ISSUES IN THE BAY AREA AND
THE AMOUNT OF FUNDS CALTRANS.
HAS EXPENDED FOR THE SUPPER.
THE REGIONAL WATER BOARD INTENDS
TO ASSURE COMPLIANCE ORDER TO
CALTRANS. THAT WILL DEFINE
TIMELINES TO INCORPORATE
DIFFERENT TRASH CONTROL MEASURES
IN THE BAY AREA. NO MONETARY
PENALTY IS ANTICIPATED THE
REGIONAL BOARD HAS INDICATED
THAT IT WILL SHARE THE DETAILS
OF THE DRAFT COMPLIANCE ORDER
WITH CALTRANS.
TOMORROW.
.
AND.
SO WE'LL BE WORKING WITH THEM
TO ADDRESS THEIR CONCERNS WE
ALSO ARE DOING A LOT IN THE BAY
AREA TO ADDRESS.
THE VOLUME OF TRASH.
SINCE THE ISSUANCE OF THE
PERMIT WE TAKE IT VERY SERIOUSLY
WE WORK ALL OVER THE STATE WITH
THE DEFERRED VARIOUS REGIONAL
BOARDS AND WITH THE STATE WATER
BOARD AS WELL.
SO.
GET WHAT WE'RE CONCERNED BECAUSE
THE DEPARTMENT SAYING THAT THERE
HASN'T BEEN ANY.
.
YOU KNOW SIGNIFICANT
IMPLEMENTATION ON THIS VIOLATION
THAT AYE IF THEY GO BACK TO THE
TWENTY FOURTEEN.
SO TOMORROW. IS.
IS.
THE DISCUSSION WITH THE BILL THE
ON THE RAILING THAT'S WE WILL
GET BETTER ACTUAL WRITTEN.
DRAFT.
COMPLIANCE ORDER WHICH WILL
TELL US SPECIFICALLY AND I
EXPECT THERE WILL BE SIGNIFICANT
DIALOGUE AS A RESULT OF THAT.
COMPLIANCE ORDER SO THAT WE CAN
WORK THROUGH THE ISSUES WE'VE WE
SPENT A.
OF SPEND TIME AND MONEY TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO. TO ASSURE
THAT WE ARE PROVIDING TRASH FROM
GETTING INTO. INTO THE BAY AND
WE CONTINUE TO LOOK AT DIFFERENT
AND INNOVATIVE WAYS TO TO TRAP
THAT TRASH AND. THEN.
DIFFERENT.
DIFFERENT METHODS. I I GUESS THE
GOOD WITH THE CONCERN IS THAT.
IT'S ONE THING TO TO SUBMIT A
PLAN THAT'S APPROVAL POLL AND HE
AND THIS IS WHAT THE PLAN IS TO
SEE OTHER. DID THAT ACTION STEP
ONE THAT WE NEED TO TAKE GO IN
THE TRASH IS.
UBIQUITOUS BETWEEN EIGHT I GET
THAT AND AND THE STORM WATER
FOLKS SIR L. A. POLICE IN THE
BAY AREA WE HAVE BEEN AUTUMN
FROM THAT AREA AND. I I GET IT I
GUESS THE QUESTION IS IS WHAT
ACTIONS HAVE YOU TAKEN
INDEPENDENT OF FORMALLY IN THE
PLAN THAT SORT OF HELPS REDUCE.
ALL THE TRASH OR SO IN THE LAST
THREE YEARS CALTRANS HAS SPENT
ABOUT SIX MILLION ANNUALLY IN
THE BAY AREA. FOR ROAD SWEEPING
AND STORM DRAIN CLEANING TO
REMOVE TRASH AND OTHER DEBRIS.
WE'VE CLEANED ABOUT TWENTY FOUR
THOUSAND LANE MILES WE'VE
COMPLETED VISUAL ASSESSMENTS ON
CALTRANS RIGHT OF WAY. TO
IDENTIFY TRASH HOTSPOTS IN THE
BAY AREA WE'RE CONDUCTING
ASSESSMENTS OF THOSE HOT SPOTS
TO EVALUATE THE FEASIBILITY OF
SOME DIFFERENT TRASH CONTROL
MEASURES THAT WE HAVE THERE NOW.
WE'VE ALSO SPENT.
OVER MILLION DOLLARS IN
CONSULTANT SERVICES FOR TRASH
ASSESSMENTS AND STUDIES IN THE
BAY AREA DIFFERENT TYPES OF
DESIGNS FOR. TRAPPING THAT WE
ALSO HAVE A LARGE MEDIA CAMPAIGN
AND SOCIAL MEDIA CAMPAIGN TO
REMIND PEOPLE THAT EVERY DROP
ENDS UP.
IN IN THE WATERSHED THING.
AND NOT TO NOT TO.
TO KEEP THEIR VEHICLES IN GOOD
CONDITION.
.
LIKE. I DON'T GO AWAY WHEN WE
HAVE THERE ARE. POCKETS OF.
PROBLEMS THAT WE HAVE WE HAVE. A
MATTRESS PROGRAMS THAT WE'RE
CONSIDERING INCREASING THE POUND
SHAPE BECAUSE IT'S NOT WHERE YOU
HAVE TO DELIVER THEM PEOPLE ARE
PICKING UP THE MATTRESSES THE
BOUNTY THAT THE KID. IS NOT
ENOUGH TO HAVE.
FOLKS IN THEIR SHOES AREAS
SPILLS FROM THE STREETS OF THE
CITY AND TO THE CALTRANS RIGHT
AWAY SO. RIGHT IN IN THAT RENO
IN THE LAST.
WE'VE EXPENDED FOURTEEN JUST
WEEKS SPEND FOURTEEN TO SIXTEEN
MILLION ANNUALLY IN THE LAST
THREE YEARS FOR MANUAL TRASH
PICKUP AND HOMELESS ENCAMPMENT
AND ILLEGAL DRUGS DUMPSITE
CLEANUP. WHICH CONTINUES TO BE A
SIGNIFICANT ISSUE.
THAT THEIR SPECIFIC FUNDING
TAT'S GOING TO BE.
USE TO FOR THIS.
ANTICIPATED APPROVED PLAN.
HE.
HAVE YOU IDENTIFY THAT FOR THE
COMPLETE COMPLIANCE AND
CLASSIFICATORY ASSOCIATED SO
FERTILE NEED TO SEE THE PLAN AND
FIND OUT WHAT KIND OF. WORK
WOULD BE INVOLVED IN THAT
CERTAINLY GOING TO HAVE BEEN
CALTRANS A STORM WATER A
PROGRAM.
SPECIFICALLY SET ASIDE FROM
OTHER PROGRAMS TO ADDRESS THOSE
STORM WATER ISSUES.
AGAIN IT DEPENDS ON WHAT KIND
OF WORK FOR LOOKING AT CERTAINLY
LITTER PICKUP IN CONCENTRATION
IN THAT AREA IS ONE WAY TO
REDUCE THE TRASH.
BUT A STATISTIC THAT WE.
HAVE IS IF WE.
PAT PICKS UP SIX SPEAKERS AT
SIXTY.
FIFTY THOUSAND CUBIC YARDS OF
TRASH IN THE BAY AREA LAST YEAR.
THAT'S AN INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF
TRASH IT'S NOT CALTRANS OTHER
THROWING TRASH IT'S THE PUBLIC
OUT THERE'S GOING TRASH IN THAT
WE ARE. THAT WE BECOME
RESPONSIBLE FOR AND WE'RE DOING
OUR BEST TO ENSURE THAT THAT
DOESN'T GET INTO THE WATERWAYS.
SO WHAT KIND OF WORK THAT WILL
BE INCORPORATED INTO THE PLAN
REMAINS TO BE SEEN BUT WE DO
HAVE A SEPARATE PROGRAM FOR THE.
YEAH THERE'S ALWAYS THAT TRASH
THE BLOWS FROM THE CITIES AND
THE PERSONAL PROPERTY IS CITY
STREETS THE CALTRANS.
THINNER NIELSEN EVER QUESTION AT
ALL.
WELL I THINK IT ALLUDED TO IT
THAT JUST A BIT AGO A CUT
QUESTION WAS TO WHAT DEGREE. ARE
YOU WORKING ON THE THE HOMELESS
ENCAMPMENTS AND. IT IN DOING
WHATEVER YOU DOING OUT HERE WORK
WITH THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO
BECAUSE MANY LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
HAVE PLANS AND PROGRAMS THAT
THEY'RE WORKING IS THAT. IS THAT
HOW YOU TRY TO DEAL WITH IT WHEN
APPROACH IS ON YOUR YOUR RIGHT
WAYS.
SO WE ARE WORKING WITH LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS PARTICULARLY IN THE
BAY AREA AND ACROSS THE STATE TO
MAKE SURE THAT ARE ISSUES THAT
ARE. MANNER OF ADDRESSING
HOMELESS CAMP CLEAN UPS.
THAT WE ARE WORKING TOGETHER AND
AND ADDRESSING OTHER HOMELESS
ISSUES SO WE'RE NOT JUST PUSHING
PEOPLE BACK AND FORTH FROM CITY
STREETS CITY RIGHT AWAY TO STATE
RIGHT OF WAY. BUT.
SENATOR I WANT.
BELABOR THE POINT BUT I THINK
THIS IS ONE OF THE TIMES THAT WE
HAVE RIGHT TAKE IRAN IS GOING TO
GIVE THE EXAMPLE SOUTHERN MARIN.
FROM.
THE TUNNEL COMING THE TUNNELS
COMING OUT FROM THE GOLDEN GATE
BRIDGE UP THROUGH MILL VALLEY
FOR EXAMPLE THAT CORRIDOR. IS
AYE AYE HOW YOU DETERMINE
HEAVILY TRASH COURT OR. JUST
CAN'T FIND FOLKS TO BE ABLE TO
DO THE WORK ON AND YOU CAN'T
HAVE VOLUNTEERS OF AND PICK IT
UP BECAUSE THAT YOU HAVE THAT
FOUR LANES. BAD NORTH FOUR LANE
SOUTH IN VERY SMALL SHOULDERS.
SO I THINK THAT'S THE THE PIECE.
.
THAT WERE ALSO SUFFERING FROM
AND I KNOW WE'RE GONNA TALK MORE
ABOUT THIS AND AGAIN THANK YOU
SO MUCH BETTER DIRECTOR BUT I
THINK.
OF TRADE DEVELOPING THAT
STRATEGY LONGER TERM IN THOSE
HIGHER COSTS COMMUNITIES.
OF RAISING THAT START A WAGE OF
EQUAL GREATLY SINCE THIS ISSUE
AS WELL.
YES AND WE WILL CONTINUE THAT
DISCUSSION I WOULD NOTE THAT WE
ALSO HAVE THE ADOPT A HIGHWAY
PROGRAM AS YOU MENTIONED IN THAT
AREA WE EVALUATE WHERE IT'S SAFE
FOR PEOPLE TO BE OUT ON FOOT.
THAT'S PROBABLY NOT ANY AREA
WHERE IT IS BUT WE DO HAVE A LOT
OF VOLUNTEERS THERE HELPING US
PICK UP TRASH.
AND WE ALSO HAVE THIS WAS
PREVIOUSLY MENTIONED THE PEARLY.
.
TRASH PICKUP PROGRAM.
WE CAN WORK ALSO FROM THAT THE
COUNTY JAILS ADAM. DO WE HAVE IN
GUESSTIMATE I GUESS WOULD BE
WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW AND.
WHAT THE FULL COSTS OF
IT'S GOING TO BE THE BEING?
GETTING COMPLIANCE WITH THE
PERMIT.
I THINK UNTIL WE SEE.
THE.
.
THE ORDER
WE WE DON'T BUT WE CAN COME BACK
AND REPORT AFTERTHOUGHT BUT IF
THIS IS INFORMATION OR JUST.
FOR YEARS
WHEN ME IT'S PROBLEM WE'VE AND
THERE SENATE'S
A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH. OUR
TRASH.
TRASHES PROBLEM NINE MONTHS
ENOUGH SAID THANK YOU VERY MUCH
LET'S MOVE ON THE HIGH SPEED
RAIL.
CITY IS.
GOOD OVERSIGHT RIGHT HIM OVER
FEEL.
WE A NEW DIRECTOR.
THE SECOND.
USER.
JEFF.
WHAT?
YEAH OVERSIGHT.
OKAY PETER THIS IS A.
IS
GOOD MORNING MORNING MR
CHAIRMAN.
THIS ISSUE ONE.
THE SECOND PHASE ONE YES.
BLENDED SYSTEM YES I AM.
.
BRIAN KELLY THE EXECUTIVE
OFFICER OF THE CALIFORNIA
HIGHWAY PARA. CALIFORNIA HAS
BEEN A RAIL AUTHORITY TO MY
RIGHT IS. OUR CHIEF FINANCIAL
OFFICER RUSS HONG.
THE BCP THAT WE HAVE BEFORE THE
COMMITTEE THIS YEAR IS ONE TO
SIMPLY RE APPROPRIATE A PRIOR
APPROPRIATION OF.
PROPOSITION ONE A BOND FUNDS
AND FEDERAL FUNDS.
OF FOR THE PROJECT WERE
ORIGINALLY APPROPRIATED.
A THROUGH SB TEN TWENTY NINE AND
TWO THOUSAND TWELVE.
AND WE ARE SEEKING A
REAPPROPRIATION BECAUSE.
SIMPLY HAVEN'T SPENT ALL THOSE
DOLLARS YET AND A LITTLE BIT
MORE TIME BUT MOSTLY THAT WAS
BECAUSE IN OUR AGREEMENT WITH
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. SO WE
AGREED TO SPEND FEDERAL MONEY
FIRST AND SO WE FINISHED OF
SPENDING THE FEDERAL MONEY IN
FALL OF TWENTY SEVENTEEN. AND
THAT WERE IN A MODE TO MATCH
THOSE FEDERAL FUNDS WITH OUR
BOND DOLLARS. AND ARE SEEKING
THE REAPPROPRIATION PRIMARILY
FOR THAT PURPOSE IT'S ALSO WORTH
NOTING THAT THE APPROPRIATIONS
THE APPROPRIATED FUNDS WOULD GO
TOWARD WHAT WE CALL THE BOOK AND
PROJECTS.
WHICH IN THE NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA. IS PART OF THE SIX
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR
DEDICATION TO CALTRAIN
ELECTRIFICATION.
IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA HIS FOR A
MAJOR A GREAT SEPARATION PROJECT
ROSECRANS MARQUARDT.
AND ULTIMATELY WOULD INCLUDE.
MONEY THAT WE ARE DEDICATED TO
THE U. KELLY UNION STATION
IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA IS THE
BOOK AND PROJECTS.
SO THE TOTAL ASK IS A
REVERBERATION OF ABOUT ONE POINT
FIVE FIVE FOUR.
AND THOSE OF THE ELEMENTS OF
THAT THAT REAPPROPRIATION.
IF YOU ARE KALLIO.
TO HAVE A COMMENT AT ON THE
HELIO NO CONCERNS ARE OFFICE.
GOTCHA MEMBERS.
LET'S OPEN IT UP TO THE PUBLIC
COMMENT THIS IS A ISSUE NUMBER
ONE WITH A. CALIFORNIA HIGH
SPEED RAIL AUTHORITY.
FAMOUS CHAIRMAN KEITH DONE HERE
ON BEHALF DISSOCIATE FOR
CALIFORNIA HIGH SPEED TRAINS
ASKING YOUR SUPPORT. IN MOVING
THIS APPROPRIATION IT WILL GO A
LONG WAY TO MEET THE NEEDS NOT
ONLY OF OUR COMMON GOALS
THROUGHOUT THE STATE BUT ALSO
MOVING THIS PROJECT ALONG WHICH
IS GOING TO BE INNOVATIVE.
CHANGED HOW WE TRANSPORTER
CITIZENS ALSO GET THEM.
FROM THE JOB CENTER SHOULD WORK
CENTERS IT'S A IT'S A START AND
A NEEDED.
CHANGE WE WOULD ASK FOR YOUR
SUPPORT.
OKAY.
WILL CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING. A
MEMBERS CENTER STERN.
THANK YOU I SHARE.
WELCOME THANK YOU.
.
HAD A QUICK QUESTION FOR YOU
ABOUT THE INCOME FOR INSTANCE OR
THE STATUS OF SOME OF THE FUNDS
IN THE BOOK IN FRONT.
.
DID ARE ANNOUNCES SAYS THAT
WITHOUT A REAPPROPRIATION ABOUT
A BILLION. OR SO A BOOK AND
FUNDING WOULD REMAIN
UNENCUMBERED YOU CAN YOU WALK US
THROUGH. YEAH I.
.
THE ORIGINAL A DEDICATION OF
BOOK AND A DOLLARS CAME IN SP
TEN TWENTY NINE IN TWO THOUSAND
TWELVE A DEDICATED.
SIX HUNDRED MILLION TOWARD OF.
WHAT WE CALL BOOK AND PROJECTS
IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA?
FIVE HUNDRED MILLION IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA.
WE'VE GONE THROUGH A PROCESS OF.
ADOPTING FUNDING PLANS THAT ARE
REQUIRED. BEFORE THIS DOLLARS
CAN MOVE.
WE HAVEN'T DONE IT YET FOR THE
LA UNION STATION THAT'S PENDING
BUT FOR THE ROSECRANS MARQUARDT.
GRADE SEPARATION IT'S DONE. AND
FOR THE CALTRAIN ELECTRIFICATION
A. THIS ISN'T AUTHORITY DEAD BUT
SPEND THOSE FUNDS BEYOND JUNE OF
TWENTY EIGHTEEN HAND SINCE WE
JUST.
WHETHER THE FUNDING PLANS
RECENTLY WE WE NOW GETTING HAVE
TO GET TO THAT THE POINT OF
SPENDING THOSE SO. THE
REAPPROPRIATION WOULD SIMPLY
ALLOW THE INVESTMENT TO GO FOR
FOR THOSE PROJECTS AND YOU HAVE
A SENSE OF TIMING THOUGH ONE IF
IF THAT WERE TO TRANSPIRE ON ON
HOW QUICKLY. THOSE FUNDS WOULD
BE NUMBER THAT.
FOR THE TO BOOK AND PROJECTS.
QUICKLY BECAUSE WE ARE.
TWARD THE OF THE TAIL END OF.
EXECUTING A FUNDING AGREEMENTS
THAT WE HAVE TO EXECUTE WITH OUR
PARTNERS
SO IT WOULD CALTRAIN WEARING
CONVERSATIONS NOW AND WITH A LOS
ANGELES METRO FOR THE GRADE
SEPARATION. WERE HOPING TO GET
THAT CONCLUDED AT OUR HEARING LA
NEXT WEEK.
GREAT AND AND THE BREAKDOWN AIDS
IT.
I WAS HERE AND FOR TO I WAS HERE
FOR TEN TWENTY NINE AND A MEMBER
OF THE SIX HUNDRED FIVE HUNDRED
SPLIT BUT. HAS THAT BEEN
ADJUSTED SINCE THEN OR THE
ULTIMATE IT'S FOUR HUNDRED
TWENTY THREE RIGHT NOW.
AND NOT TO EAT DELUDE BE
BILLABLE OVER.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S EIGHTY
MILLION W. LET ME BE CLEAR THAT
FOR TWENTY THREE WOULD JOIN AND
SEVENTY SEVEN MILLION THAT'S
GOING TO THE ROSE CRAM
MARQUARDT%
SO IT. STILL FIVE HUNDRED SECOND
YET FIVE HUNDRED THAT'S CORRECT.
CORRECT.

TWO THOUSAND EIGHT.
WE BEGAN DEFERRING PURCHASES AND
EXCEEDING THE HALF MILE ITS
RECOMMENDATIONS BY DG E.
FROM FISCAL YEAR TWO THOUSAND
EIGHT THROUGH TWO THOUSAND
SIXTEEN.
WE PURCHASED ON AVERAGE ONLY SIX
SEVEN THREE ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES
ANNUALLY.
PLEASE ENTER SHORTFALL.
IF BUDGET FOR SOME VEHICLES
THAT DO NOT MEET THE MILEAGE
RECOMMENDATIONS.
BUT IN THE FISCAL YEAR TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN APPROXIMATELY
FIFTY SEVEN PERCENT THE CHP
ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES.
AND THIS MAY MAIN WE ARE BLACK
AND WHITE VEHICLES.
WILL EXCEED BE.
HUNDRED THOUSAND MILE THRESHOLD
THAT TGS RECOMMENDS.
WITH THE ADDITIONAL FOUR POINT
FIVE MILLION REQUESTED IN THIS
PROPOSAL IT WILL ASSIST US IN
MEETING THE MOUNTIE STANDARDS.
AND KEEPING OUR FLEET
OPERATIONAL AND SAFE.
ALONG WITH THE ONGOING MAJORITY
WHO ARE ALSO ASKING FOR THIRTY
TO SPIN OR ENCUMBER UP TO TWENTY
MILLION DOLLARS OVER TWO YEARS.
AND THAT ARE FULLY AND. SO WE
CAN.
ARE FREE PURCHASES ARE NORMALLY
DEFERRED UNTIL THE END OF EACH
FISCAL YEAR. WHEN WE HAVE A
BETTER SENSE.
EVER CASH FLOWS.
THEN WHAT THAT WILL DO THAT IF
WE HAVE THE AUTHORITY TO COVER
THOSE FUNDS IN NEXT FISCAL YEAR.
IT WILL ALLEVIATE SOME OF THAT
PROBLEM AND THAT BEFORE I GO ON
TO THE CAPITA LADY YOU HAVE ANY
QUESTIONS ABOUT THAT.
IT COULD THE QUESTION THAT I
HAVE IS YOUNG WERE BASED TEN
ECONOMY SO HUNDRED THOUSAND
MILES SOUNDS. NICE AND ROUND
IT'S IT'S SOMETHING YOU GET ONCE
LAST TIME TGS ACTUALLY LOOKED AT
THIS BECAUSE IN. IN THE RECENT
IT BEFORE WHEN I WAS IN HIGH
SCHOOL YOU GET A HUNDRED
THOUSAND MILES ON A CAR YOU WERE
THAT WAS LIKE A MUSEUM PIECE NOW
IT'S NOT SUCH A BIG DEAL. THE
WAY THAT THE THE THE FLEET A NEW
PERK THE NEW VEHICLES THAT WERE
PURCHASING SO. YOU KNOW WHEN WAS
THE LAST TIME THEY DID BETTER.
OR YOU KNOW IS THAT STILL A GOOD
STANDARD TO BE USING I DON'T
KNOW WHEN THE LAST TIME HE DID
IT BUT I I BELIEVE IT'S AGAINST
STANDARD BECAUSE WHEN YOU HAVE
TO LOOK. AT AN ENFORCEMENT
VEHICLES DIFFERENT MEN.
DRIVING YOUR PERSONAL BE AROUND.
MANY OF OUR PATROL CARS ARE
OPERATED.
TWENTY FOUR HOURS A DAY SEVEN
DAYS A WEEK ON PATROL.
USE AT HIGH SPEEDS ACCELERATING
ON AND OFF THE SHOULDERS.
SO THAT EVEN THOUGH YOU MAY
THINK I THOUSAND A HUNDRED
THOUSAND MILES IS NOT ALIVE
THERE'S STILL A LOT OF WEAR AND
TEAR THAT GOES ON THOUGH ON
THOSE VEHICLES AND. IT'S JUST AN
AWARD OF BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE SO
THIS.
THE POPULAR POPULATION EXPRESSES
TO SQUEEZE EVERYTHING WE CANNOT
OF EVERY AGENCIES SO I HAVE TO
ASK THIS QUESTION ON. ALLEY ó
TO HAVE.
BUT CHAU MY WITH LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE WOULDN'T RAISE
ANY ISSUES WITH THIS PROPOSAL
AND WE JUST NOW THOUGH THAT WE
ASK THE CHP WEALTHY THAT.
COVERAGE CURRENT MILEAGE FOR THE
FLEET OF ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES
WAS NAMED FROM PACIFIC. THAT
THAT HAS AT THE END OF TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN IS ABOUT A
HUNDRED AND TWELVE THOUSAND
MILES PER VEHICLE. AND IF THERE
APPROVED FOR THIS PROPOSAL ON
BIG GETTING INTO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN WE ASK THEM
WHAT WOULD BE THAT THE FLEET
WIDE AVERAGE PROJECTED BIOLAGE.
AT THE C. H. P.'S ENFORCEMENT
VEHICLES IN TWO THOUSAND
NINETEEN TWENTY IN TWO THOUSAND
TWENTY TWENTY ONE. THEY SAID
THAT IT WOULD BRING THE AVERAGE
DOWN TO SIXTY FOUR THOUSAND SIX
HUNDRED FORTY FIVE AT THE CLOSE
OF TWO THOUSAND NINETEEN TWENTY.
AND AND A FIFTY THOUSAND TWO
HUNDRED SEVENTY FOUR AT THE
CLOSE OF TWO THOUSAND TWENTY
TWENTY ONE.
FOR THE AVERAGE BECAUSE OF THE
BACKLOG THEIR AVERAGE THE
AVERAGE.
CHP VEHICLE NOW IS AS THE AS THE
END OF THE LAST.
TWENTY SEVENTEEN THAT HE REYES
HUNDRED TWELVE THOUSAND THAT'S
FOR ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES THEM
FOR OKAY HAVE YOU KNOW THAT SELF
SERVICE VEHICLES AND OTHER
VEHICLES RIGHT AT THIS
BREAKDOWN.
SO I GUESS THE QUESTION IS IS
THAT HAVE WE SEEN
IT'S GOING WITH THAT TWELVE
THOUSAND MILES HAVE WE SEEN WAR.
BREAKDOWNS OR PROBLEMS THAT KEEP
YOU WHEN YOU SAY. IT.
IS IT ACTUALLY HAPPENING WHAT
THE WHAT THE D. G. S..
GOVERNOR GOVERNMENTAL SERVICES
HERE AND I GOT IT YES IT'S AND
THE OTHER THING IS THAT. A
HUNDRED THOUSAND MILES OR THE
WARRANTY THAT IS ARE BETTER ON
THOSE VEHICLES ONCE WERE OUTSIDE
THE WARRANTY. ANYTIME THOSE
VEHICLES GOING FOR REPAIR. AND
WE PAY FOR THOSE REPAIRS OUT OF
OUR BUDGET VERSUS IF THEY WERE
WITHIN THE WARRANTY WHICH. MEANS
THAT WHEN I IMPACT OUR BUDGET
RED PEPPERS PER PRESUMPTION IS
THAT WERE ALSO GETTING RID OF
THOSE WEEKS YOU SELL THOSE
VEHICLES SOMEBODY TO BE ON. WE
DO TOWN.
ALRIGHT.
PUBLIC COMMENT THERE MEMBERS OF
THE PUBLIC LIKE TO COMMENT ON
THAT THE VEHICLE FLEET
REPLACEMENT.
MEMBERS OKAY WILL CLOSE PUBLIC
COMMENT.
.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS TO PROVE
AS.
AS REQUESTED WE HAVE A MOTION

FIRST HAS TO. EARN IT IS IN
REGARDS TO OUR COMMUNICATION
INFRASTRUCTURE PROPOSAL REQUESTS
FOR SEVEN. POINT ONE MILLION
DOLLARS FOR THAT FROM THE MOTOR
VEHICLE COUNT.
DIFFERENT DRAWINGS AND PLANS FOR
THREE COMMUNICATION TOWER
PROJECTS.
IN ALL BUT TWO HUNDREDEIGHTY
ONE THOUSAND THIS AMOUNT IS A RE
APPROACH REAPPROPRIATION FROM
PROJECTS.
ON UNITED STATES FOREST SERVICE
LAND.
THAT WERE DELAYED DUE TO
ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION ACT
REVIEW PROCESS IN MITIGATION
MEASURES THAT WERE REQUIRED BY
THE UNITED STATES FOREST
SERVICE.
THESE PROJECTS ARE ESSENTIAL TO
ENSURE ADEQUATE RADIO COVERAGE
TO COMMUNICATE WITH OUR FIELD
PERSONNEL IN FROM RADIO IN
OPERABILITY WITH OUR. ALLIES
AGENCY PARTNERS.
THAT PROJECTS ARE THE FIRST ONE
IS THE KELLER PETE TARA
REPLACEMENT IN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTY FOR COVERAGE. IN WESTERN
SAN BERNADINE ARE RIVERSIDE
COUNTIES.
THE OLD TOWER COLLAPSED IN TWO
THOUSAND SIXTEEN WAS NOT SAU
SALVAGEABLE.
THE TEMPORARY STRUCTURE WAS
CONTENT GONNA CONSIST.
CONSTRUCTED.
BUT IS INSUFFICIENT AS A
PERMANENT SOLUTION BECAUSE IT
CAN HANDLE TO PROLONGED
EXPOSURE.
AND THE LIMITED COMMUNICATIONS
EQUIPMENT THAT A KENNEL.
THE NEXT LOCATION IS WORKING
DRAWINGS FOR CHP ENHANCE RADIO
SYSTEM.
TOWER INVOLVED IN THE BY OF NON
PEAK IN ALPINE COUNTY AND SOUGHT
TO THREE AGE IN SAN BERNARDINO
COUNTY TO REPLACE AND UPGRADE
DETERIORATING COMMUNICATIONS
TOWERS AND INFRASTRUCTURE.

SO I UNDERSTAND THAT THAN ON
THE.
BUREAU OF LAND MANAGEMENT
PROPERTY THAT'S FEDERAL PROPERTY
WE'VE GOT STE DELAY THAT WE HAVE
TO HAVE THE TOWER. AT THAT
LOCATION BECAUSE OF.
BECAUSE IT COMMUNICATES TO
EXPLAIN THAT TO ME PLACES OF THE
THE LOCATION OF THOSE PARTICULAR
PEAKS THE HIGH.
A BIT TO GET THE BEST RADIO
COVERAGE.
TO PROVIDE THAT FOR OUR
PERSONNEL ARE GUARD UNIFORMED
PERSONNEL AND ALSO AL AGENCIES
USE THOSE POWERS TO TO PUT.
AT SOME OF THEIR EQUIPMENT THERE
TO.
NOT TO BE FLIP BUT I DON'T I
KNOW INYO COUNTY IS A LARGE AREA
BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY PEOPLE
LIVING INYO COUNTY OR MONO
COUNTY CLERK.
YEAH BUT IT'S.
MINUSCULE COMPARED TO THE FORTY
MILLION THAT LIVE IN THE CITY
CALIFORNIA.
ADVOCATES STILL THAT THE REQUEST
IS THAT IT'S IT'S YOU DON'T GET
YOU LOU WOULD LOSE THE
COVERAGE IF WE DIDN'T REPLACE
THESE OR DO THEY.
THEN THEY.
TRANSMIT BEYOND THE CONFINES OF
INYO COUNTY. WHAT WE WILL LOSE
THE COVERAGE IN THE ALSO
TRANSMIT OUT? THAT LIKE IT'S A
TARP PERSONNEL BECAUSE WE HAVE
PERSONNEL WORKING IN THOSE AREAS
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR SEVEN
PROVIDING.
SERVICES TO THE PEOPLE OF THOSE
COUNTIES.
OKAY.
ALRIGHT IT'S NOT COVERAGE FOR
JUST OF LESS VALUE RIGHT AROUND
THAT HOWARD DRAWS DOES TRANSMIT
TO.
AREAS ADJACENT TO THAT LOCAL
TECHIES AND ONLY SERVES A MIGHT
MONO COUNTY.
I MEAN WE GO UP THERE AND INYO
COUNTY I THINK EAGLE THROUGH
THEIR HE ON.
GO THERE BUT NO OFFENSE TO INYO
COUNTY IT'S. BETTER IT'S A NICE
PLACE.
IT'S
ALRIGHT PROBLEM LET'S OPEN UP
THE PUBLIC COMMENT EDITOR.
AND MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC HAVE A
COMMENT HERE IN THE CAPITAL
OUTLAY PROPOSAL.
WE'LL GET A HOLD OF
RECOMMENDATIONS WILL HOLD IT
OPEN.
.
AND LET'S MOVE ON TO THE LEASE
REVENUE BONDS.
OKAY THAT LAST PART IS THAT I'M.
CAPITA A REPLACEMENT FOR UP SIX
OFFICES.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND WE HAVE
A HUNDRED AND THREE FIELD
OFFICES THERE.
THAT PROVIDE A PATROL FUNCTIONS
AND IN TWO THOUSAND THIRTEEN THE
ADMINISTRATION INITIATED. A PLAN
TO REPLACE THE MOST OTDATED
ANNOUNCES OFFICES IN THE STATE.
MOST OF OUR FACILITIES ARE
DECADES OLD UNDER YOUR EYES AND
UNABLE TO MEET THE CURRENT
OPERATIONAL NEEDS.
THE MAJORITY OF THEM ARE ALSO
UNABLE TO MEET SEISMIC SAFETY
CRITERIA REQUIRED FOR ESSENTIAL
SERVICES BUILDING.
I'LL START OUT WITH THE SANTA FE
SPRINGS AREA OFFICE REQUEST FOR
ONE POINT NINE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR A. THE PERFORMANCE CRITERIA
PHASE.
THE BOTTOM PARK AREA OFFICE.
ONE POINT SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS
ALSO FOR THE PRO FORMAS CRITERIA
PHASE.
THE OTHER OFFICES ARE QUINCY
AREA THIRTY SIX POINT NINE
MILLION FROM THE DESIGN AND
BUILD PHASE BEALL SANCTUARY
OFFICE.
FORTY POINT THREE MILLION FOR
THE DESIGN AND BUILD HE'S.
THE HAYWARD AREA OFFICE FORTY
EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE
DESIGN AND GO FEES AND ONCE THAT
OFFICE IS COMPLETED.
WE WILL TAKE OUR PERSONNEL FROM
THE CASTRO VALLEY AREA SEIZE P.
OFFICE AND THEY WILL ALSO BE
MOVING IN TO THE A WORD OFFICE
OF WILL BE COMBINED IN THOSE
OFFICES. HIDING THEM IN LASTLY
IS THE SAN BERNARDINO OFFICE FOR
FORTY POINT THREE MILLION IN THE
DESIGN BILL PHASE.
OUR PROPOSAL FOR THE PERFORMANCE
CRITERIA FOR SANTA FE SPRINGS
INVOLUNTARY OFFICE REPLACEMENT
PROJECTS WOULD BE FUNDED THROUGH
THE NBA.
ARE PROPOSAL FOR THE DESIGN
BUILD PHASE FOR QUINCY EL
CENTRO.
HEY REMAIN SAMBAR MEDINA OFFICES
INCLUDED SHIPPING FUNDING FROM
THE NBA TO THE PUBLIC BUILDINGS
CONCERT CONFRONT.
WHICH ARE LEASE REVENUE BONDS
BONDS AND THEN THAT WHAT I'LL DO
RIGHT NOW IS OUR DEFER TO
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE THEY CAN
PROVIDE YOU MORE INFORMATION ON
THAT.
WE'RE DELIGHTED TO HEAR MORE
ABOUT THE LEASE REVENUE BONDS I
KNOW THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
IS HEARD THIS SHARE.
TALK ABOUT THE WITH SOME CHAGRIN
THE VOTERS HAVING APPROVED
EDUCATION BONDS.
THAT THEY'RE WAITING FOR THE
GOVERNOR TO RELEASE AND THE
ADMINISTRATION HAS CHOSEN.
RELEASE A MINUSCULE AMOUNT OF
THEM AND NOW WE'RE SEEING A
REVERSION OF A HUNDRED AND
THIRTY EIGHT MILLION DEBTS IN
THEM MOTOR VEHICLE FUN WE'VE HAD
SEVERAL ITEMS COME BEFORE. THE
COMMITTEE THAT ARE GOING TO.
IN TE NONTRADITIONAL WAY TAKE
MONEY FROM THE MOTOR VEHICLE
FUND FUNDS. OTHER NECESSARY
STATE HOW PROGRAMS.
SO.
I'M SEEING SOME INCONSISTENCY
HERE WITH THE ADMINISTRATION
WHICH PAGE YOU GO SEEMS TO WORK
FOR SCHOOLS BUT NOT PAY ISSUE GO
FOR. A CHP OFFICE.
MAYBE YOU CAN.
CLARIFY FOR ME.
THANK YOU SENATOR MCCASKILL MANY
CATS OF THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE.
SO I JUST WANT TO GO TO SOME OF
THE QUESTIONS HERE AND THE
AGENDA.
FIRST ONE WAS ABOUT THIS AND
ALL.
BUDGET FIRST ONE IS THAT I CAN'T
SPEAK TO K. TWELVE. AND AND THAT
PROCESS THE I CAN SPEAK TO THE
THE CHP PROCESS AND THE
RATIONALE BEHIND IT HE'S JUST
VOTERS HAVE ASKED TO APPROVE
BONDS AND THE GOVERNOR HAS SAID
I'M NOT GOOD IT. WILL.
RELEASE THE BONDS BUT HE
SUGGESTING WE'RE GOING TO DO.
THE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY THREE
MILLION DOLLARS WITH THE BONDS.
FOR THE CHP OFFICERS SO THIS IS
PURCHASE SOME PHILOSOPHICAL
INCONSISTENCY FOR SOMEBODY WHO
WANTS TO. PAY ISSUE GO EXCEPT
HERE
FLOOR OR NOT NOT EVEN DO THE
BONDS BUT PLEASE PROCEED WITH
HOW WILL BE UTILIZED RESPONSE.
SO.
I I JUST THE THE SHORT ANSWER ON
THE REASON FOR THE STRIVE IN IS
IS. THE ADMINISTRATION SEES THE
ALTERNATIVE
THERE ON TO USING LEASE REVENUE
BONDS FOR THESE EXISTING
PROJECTS WOULD BE TO HAVE TO
PAUSE THEM FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS
UNTIL THE MVA WOULD BE IN A
CONDITION WHERE THEY COULD BE
CASH FUNDED.
I WOULD AGREE WITH THE SENATOR
THAT THE PREFERENCES ALWAYS TO
BE ABLE TO CAST FUNDED BUT IN A
WAY TO ENSURE PRUDENT RESERVE
FOR THE MTA.
WE HAVE DO. WE DECIDED THAT THE
LEAST REVENUE.
DOUBLE SPREAD THE COST OVER A
NUMBER OF YEARS A ONE THINGS
THAT THAT THE I'M CONSULTANT AS
POINTED OUT IN HIS ANALYSIS IS
THAT IT WOULD COST MORE ON.
ON A CASH BASIS ABOUT.
SIXTY SIXTY FIVE CENTS ON THE
DOLLAR MORE ACCIDENT NATURE BOND
FINANCING.
BUT WITH THE TIME VALUE OF
MONEY.
IT'S ABOUT TWENTY PERCENT MORE
WE FEEL THAT THAT WOULD BE
ACTUALLY EQUIVALENT
TO WHAT IT WOULD COST.
ON CASH
IF WE HAD TO PUT THE MAJORITY OF
THESE PROJECTS ON HOLD FOR SPUR
SEVERAL YEARS. PLUS THAT ALLOWS
CA SFI TO GET OUT OF THERE.
OLD UNDERSIZED AND SEISMICALLY.
HAZARDOUS LE OFFICES IN A MORE
TIMELY MANNER.
ONE OTHER THING THERE'S A
QUESTION HERE ABOUT THE STATE OF
PAVE UTILIZED LEASE REVENUE
BONDS OF SIMILAR PROJECTS.
I JUST WANT TO POINT OUT THAT
LEASE REVENUE BONDS VOTER
AUTHORIZED IN THE ESTATE
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION ACT OF
NINETEEN FIFTY FOUR.
SENATE MCGUIRE.
THE WAY WE EXCUSE ME BELIAU.
YOU HAVE SOME
SHOT MY WERE THE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE AND.
MICHIGAN AND GO BACK AND TALK A
LOT ABOUT THE FIVE YEAR STATE
INFRASTRUCTURE PLANET TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN AND HOW IT'S
CHANGED FOR THE CALIFORNIA
HIGHWAY PATROL. SO THAT THE TWO
THOUSAND EIGHTEEN FIVE YEAR
INFRASTRUCTURE PLANNED PROJECTS
SIGNIFICANTLY LESS SPENDING FOR
OFFICE REPLACEMENTS THAN THAN
WAS PROJECTED IN THE TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN. FIVE YEAR
INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN FOR EXAMPLE
THE TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN PLAN.
ASSUMES THAT THE STATE WILL
SPEND FORTY FIVE POINT SIX
MILLION LESS IN TWO THOUSAND
NINETEEN TWENTY ON CHP
FACILITIES THEM AS IT SEEMED IN
THE TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN PLAN.
AND THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE
EIGHT TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN
PLANET TWO THOUSAND SEVENTEEN
PLANNER MAINLY DUE TO THE
ELIMINATION OF FUNDING FOR YET
TO BE IDENTIFIED OFFICE
REPLACEMENT PROJECTS. THAN
INITIATION ALSO SHIFTS THE BOX
OF THE BULK OF ITS PURPOSE A
FUNDING FOR ACQUISITION STUDY
AND PERFORMANCE CRITERIA AND
VERY SPACES OUT BEYOND TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY TWENTY ONE.
AFFECTED THIS SHIFT IS TO MOVE
RELATED DESIGN BILL COSTS UT TO
TWO THOUSAND TWENTY TENTY THREE
AND TWENTY FOUR AND BEYOND. FOR
VARIOUS OFFICE REPLACEMENTS AND
BY SPREADING THE AREA OFFICE
REPLACE SINCE OUT OVER A LONG
PERIOD OF TIME THAN PREVIOUSLY
PROPOSED THAT ADMINISTRATION
REDUCES SPENDING FROM THE MOTOR
VEHICLE ACCOUNT OVER THE NEXT
FEW YEARS SADAT'S ONE PART AT
THIS PROPOSAL. THE CHANGE FROM%
THE PAY AS YOU GO APPROACH TO
THE LEASE REVENUE BOND FINANCING
FOR AREA OFFICE REPLACEMENT
COMBINED WITH THE SLOWING DOWN
IF LEVELS.
HIGH IN THE BUDGET YEAR
RIGHT BUT THAT'S SEEN ON. I HAVE
MONEY IN THE BANK I SPEND MONEY
HAVE LESS MONEY IN THE BANK WE
HAVE A HUNDRED AND THIRTY EIGHT
POINT SEVEN MILLION DOLLARS AND
THE NVA FUN. NOW WE'RE READING
THERE THERE'S A REVERSION BACK
WE COULD BUILD THE FOR.
THE FIRST EL CENTRO HAYWARD
VENTURE IN SAN BERNARDINO WHAT
THE MONEY THAT'S ALREADY THERE
IT YES THE THE ACCOUNT WOULD GO.
FURTHER DOWN THERE BE SOME
PRESSURES NOT TO.
FUND OTHER NECESSARY SERVICES
FROM THE NBA SET
FIND THE RELIEF THIS IS NOT THE
FIRST POLLS.
WE'VE HAD SEVERAL PROPOSAL THAT
HAVE LOOKING THIS IS THE CASH
COW THE NBA FUND TO PAY FOR FOR
STUFF AND IT SEEMS TO ME THAT.
THAT CHP. OFFICERS ARE.
A PRIMARY.
I'D ADD EVER OF NOT THE PRIMARY
A REASONABLE EXPENDITURE OF THE
REASON THAT WE COLLECT THIS
MONEY HERE WE'VE GOT WE COLLECT
ALL THESE LITTLE POTS OF MONEY
AND SPECIAL FUNDS. AND NOW WE'RE
NOT SPENDING IT FOR WHY WE
COLLECTED IT.
BECAUSE THE WORD IT'S GOOD TO
GET LOW.
I MEAN.
WE COLLECT. WE'RE GOOD TO
REPLENISH THE FUND THIS YEAR AND
NEXT YEAR AND IT'S THE THE FRONT
OF THE YEAR. TOLLEMACHE GETTING
ADOPTED SECOND DOWN TO ZERO.
POLICE THAT'S NOT WHAT'S IN
FRONT OF US.
WE'RE IS GOOD COSTS A HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS IN FINANCING.
DOESN'T IT SEEM
WITH THE MONEY THAT WE HAVE
FROM.
SUE.
WE DIDN'T MAKE RECOMMENDATIONS
FOR THE WHICH HE THIS IS AS AT.
S. TRADE OFFS IN THIS IS A
POLICY CALL FOR THE LEGISLATURE
TO MAKE.
CENTER NIELSEN YOU HAD.
SOMETHING AT THAT SEND REQUIRED
SORRY. LITTLE GOOD THINKING IS A
CHAIR NEAR DEPRECIATE YOUR
COMMENTS.
IN I DO THINK THAT THEIR SPOT
ON DO ONE THING CONGRATULATIONS
THE COMMISSIONER ON YOUR NEW
ROLE.
INTO AND I KNOW WE'RE ALL
LOOKING FOR TO WORK WITH YOU AND
WHEN I SAY THAT I KEY DESMOND IS
A FANTASTIC JOB THAT'S AGENCY.
THOUGH HE BECAUSE IS A LITTLE
BIT BUT IT'S ALL GOOD NOW.
BUT I EAT REALLY DOES DO A
WONDERFUL JOB.
UNDERSTAND THAT.
THE CHAIRS RECOMMENDING TO HOLD
OPEN ON THIS.
IN ABSOLUTELY SUPPORT REQUEST
BUT I I HAD ST STE IN IT'S NOT
IN OUR IN I KNOW YOU ARE THE
MESSENGERS SO I GREATLY
APPRECIATE YOUR WORK BY THE WAY.
BUT I THINK THAT THERE IS A
SIGNIFICANT INCONSISTENCY
WE HAD TO FIGHT TO BE ABLE TO
GET COMMUNITY COLLEGES FUNDED
LAST YEAR.
COMMUNITY COLLEGE THAT THE COULD
THE VOTERS OF CALIFORNIA
SUPPORTED THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE
BOND TO BE ABLE TO BUILD. A.
REBUILD OUR CAMPUSES MODERNIZING
MAKER CAMPUSES SAFE AND WAS A
FIGHT TO BE ABLE TO GET WHAT THE
VOTERS HAD ALREADY PROVED.%
THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF OF.
ELEMENTARY MIDDLE AND HIGH
SCHOOL CAMPUSES ACROSS THE
STATE.
A WHO WENT OUT TO THEIR VOTERS
EXPECTING TO BE ABLE TO GET
STATE FUNDING FROM THE BOND THAT
BILLIONS CONTINUES TO SAID AND
THEY CAN'T GET STATE MATCHING
FUNDS BETTER REBUILD THEIR
CONCERN ON BEHALF OF THE
MINISTRATION OF A CREW IN THE
DEBT. OF THAT IT WOULD TAKE. AT
IT EXPENSES ABOVE AND BEYOND
WHAT THE BOND IT WOULD BE A TO
BE ABLE TO GET THESE FACILITIES
REBEL.
SO NOW FAST FORWARD TO THIS
FUND.
WERE LOOKING.
AND I SUPPORT THE REQUEST BUT.
WE SHOULD NOT BE FINDING A FORTY
MILLION REQUESTS AT A PROFICIENT
WILDLIFE.
OUT OF THIS FUND THAT WOULD FREE
OPEN THAT WOULD FREE FORTY
MILLION DOLLARS. FROM THIS FINE
TO BE ABLE TO BUILD. CHP FIELD
OFFICES AT THIS FINE IS INTENDED
TO DO WE SHOULD BE FAIR FINDING
FISH AND WILDLIFE FROM THE
GENERAL FUND.
BUT TO ENSURE THAT THEY ARE
GOING TO BE SUCCESSFUL FOR THE
YEARS TO COME SO. I. I FEEL.
CANDIDLY THAT THERE'S AND
PICKING AND CHOOSING. IN REGARDS
TO WHERE WE'RE GONNA LOOK AT
BOND DEBT AND NOT.
AND THERE'S A STRATEGY TO BE
ABLE TO ACCESS WITH THIS FUN
WITH OTHER AGENCIES IT PROBABLY
SHOULD BEGIN IN GENERAL FUND AND
THEY'VE BEEN UNDERFUNDED FOR
YEARS.
SO I I THINK THAT THERE'S SOME
FRUSTRATION.
.
AS YOU IT YOU COULD TELL AND
AGAIN. I KNOW YOU'RE THE
MESSENGER SOMBERLY GRATEFUL FOR
YOUR WORK CERTAIN AND PLEASE
DON'T TAKE IT THAT OUR COMMUNITY
AT ALL BUT BUT I THINK THAT
THERE IS SOME SIGNIFICANT
FRUSTRATION. ON WHY WE'RE HERE
WITH THIS ONE SPECIFIC FIND IN
THERE VOTER APPROVED BONDS
WITHIN THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN
K. THROUGH TWELVE LEVEL THAT WE
CAN TO GET FUNDED EVEN THOUGH
VOTERS HAVE SAID THEY WANT THEIR
SCHOOLS REBUILT.
OKAY.
I THINK ONE THING I JUST WANTED
TO POINT OUT.
WHO WAS AGAIN I CAN'T SPEAK ON
THE HIGHER ED SIDE IN? CASE THAT
KID TO FOURTEEN SIDE HERE AND
THIS COMMITTEE AND I CAN'T SWEEP
IT AWARENESS AND THOSE THAT IT
IS THE ADMINISTRATION THOUGH HAS
MADE THE DECISION. NOT MEAN THIS
WAS A SIGNIFICANT FIGHT THE
BUDGET PROCESS LAST YEAR TO GET
COMMUNITY COLLEGES
THE FUNDS THAT THEY DESERVE.
THAT WERE ALREADY APPROVED BY
VOTERS UNDERSTAND IS NOT YEAH
WITHIN.
THAT THE DEPARTMENT YOU'RE
WORKING RIGHT NOW BUT MINUTES
ABSOLUTE FACT.
OKAY ARM THERE'S JUST ONE THING
I DID WANT TO POINT OUT THAT IF
WE DID FOR CASH.
.
IF IF WE DID BECAUSE FUND THEM
WHICH IS NOT ADMINISTRATION
PROPOSAL BUT IF IF IT WENT
THROUGH AND.
THEY THE.
CHP PROPOSALS WERE SUSTAINED AT
THAT AND THAT WOULD LOW ORDERED
THE.
.
THAT THAT WOULD LOWER THE.
THE BALANCE THE RESERVE FOR DMG
TO. ON A HUNDRED AND FIFTY
MILLION FOR SEVERAL YEARS.
THAT'S ONLY A COUPLE WEEKS
THAT'S A THAT'S A HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION BALANCE ON A FOUR
BILLION DOLLAR FUND.
SO I THINK THAT ALSO TAKE INTO
ACCOUNT THOUGH THE POTENTIAL
OBLIGATIONS ARE BEING
RECOMMENDED FOR OTHER
DEPARTMENTS COMING INTO THIS
FUND.
I'M LOOKING AT THIS AS A AS A A
THE CAP DAHLE ANALYSTS AND WITH
AS A AS A AS A BINARY CHOICE.
AND AGAIN THAT WAS.
IN AGAIN.
I REALLY DO APPRECIATE YOUR WORK
SIR AT NO YOU WERE WHEN THE HARD
AND I KNOW YOU'RE THE MESSENGER
SO I'D THANK YOU FOR. HEARING ME
OUT BUT THINK STAPLES.
ALRIGHT LET'S OPEN UP THE PUBLIC
COMMENT YOU HEARD FROM SOME OF
THE MEMBERS HAD MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC THAT ARE HERE ON THE
CAPITAL OUTLAY PROPOSAL. LEASE
REVENUE BONDS.
THANK YOU VERY VERY MUCH MISTER
CHAIRMAN MEMBERS OF THE BRIEF.
.
THE I I ENJOYED YOUR DISCUSSION
ABOUT THE BONDS AND.
IT IS A CHANGE FROM.
PAST PRACTICE THE LEASE IN MY
FORTY YEARS I'VE NEVER DONE
REVENUE BONDS BEFORE BUT I I
WOULD WANT TO RESPECTFULLY IT
THERE'S NO OTHER PLACE IN THE
AGENDA. GIVES A ONE NIGHT OF MY
WANTED TO SPEAK ABOUT IT. IS
SOMETHING I WOULD LIKE TO ASK
THE COMMITTEE TO CONSIDER FOR
FUTURE HEARING.
I PASSED OUT A LETTER FROM THE
PRESIDENT OF THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF HIGHWAY
PATROLMAN.
AT THEIR LAST BOARD MEETING
WHICH JUST OCCURRED TWO WEEKS
AGO COMMISSIONER STANLEY WAS
HERE. OF AND THE ISSUE OF
STAFFING.
KEEPS COMING UP AT EVERY BOARD
MEETING AND AT THE BOARD ME WE
HAVE A HUNDRED AND FIFTY
OFFICERS FROM EVERYWHERE IN
CALIFORNIA HALL HUNDRED THREE
AREA OFFICES ECONOMY
HEADQUARTERS IN OTHER PLACES.
A TRUCK FACILITIES. WAIT
FACILITIES FROM ANYONE MONO ALSO
THEY PARTED FROM IN YIELD AND
MODEL COUNTIES YEAH YEAH YES
THEY'RE FROM EVERYWHERE.
EVERYTHING AND IN IN MY FORTY
YEARS THEY'VE COMPLAINED ABOUT
STAFFING ALMOST EVERY YEAR. UP
BUT WE NEVER DO ANYTHING ABOUT
I'VE NEVER APPEARED BEFORE THIS
COMMITTEE AND ASK FOR MORE STUFF
I JUST HAVEN'T DONE IT. THEN
BECAUSE THEY FIGURE OKAY WE HAVE
TO LIVE WITH WHAT WE GET THE
COMMISSIONER CANNOT ASK FOR MORE
STAFF HE WORKS FROM THE GOVERNOR
I UNDERSTAND THAT COMPLETELY. AS
A NEW APPOINTEE EVEN AS IT ANY
APPOINTEE HE CAN'T DEVIATE FROM
THE BUDGET HE WAS GIVEN BY THE
ADMINISTRATION. NOW THE
ASSOCIATION ISN'T BOUND BY THAT
US SO WE CAN TELL YOU WHAT'S IN
THE CHARTS ATTACHED TO THE
LETTER.
SHOW THAT THE STAFFING OF THE
HIGHWAY PATROL HAS BEEN A FAIRLY
FLAT LINE FOR FIFTY YEARS.
GOING BACK TO NINETEEN SIXTY
EIGHT WHEN I STARTED
REPRESENTING THEM WELL I STARTED
IN SEVENTY EIGHT BUT I BUT I.
WAS FRIENDS WITH THEM AND SIXTY
EIGHT. A BELIEVE IT OR NOT I'M
THAT OLD HIGH STARTED IN
REAGAN'S FIRST TERM AS GOVERNOR.
AT NEW JIM NIELSEN BACK IN THOSE
DAYS.
IN THE STAFFING IS GROWING BY
ABOUT A THOUSAND OFFICERS.
OVER FIFTY YEARS.
IT THE POPULATIONS DOUBLED THE
REGISTERED VEHICLES
HER OFFICER HAS.
GONE OFF THE CHART A LICENSED
DRIVERS VEHICLE MILES OF TRAVEL
ALL OF THAT ALTHOUGH ALL THE
WORKLOAD STATS ARE HIGHER
ACCIDENTS ARE UP.
.
DEATH RATE IS UP. SO IT'S IT'S
BECOME A BIT OF A CRISIS.
AND SO I'M HERE TO SAY THAT THEY
WOULD LIKE YOU TO LOOK AT THE
STAFFING.
OUR AGAIN WE RESPECT THE FACT
THAT THERE WITH FUND CONDITION
IS VERY TIGHT.
IN IT WE REVIEW WE UNDERSTAND
AND THAT'S WHY WE WERE OPPOSED
TO THIS PAGE PEOPLE TAPPING INTO
IT AS A. YOU KNOW SORT OF A
SLUSH FUND.
BECAUSE THERE ARE NEEDS FOR THAT
THE PATROL HAS AND THEY'RE JUST
RELUCTANT TO COMPLAIN THEY TRY
TO DO THE BEST HE CAN WITH WHAT
THEY'VE GOT. BUT THEY DO SEE
ACCIDENTS UP IN THESE IN THEIR
SCURRYING FROM ACCIDENT ACCENT
YOU DRIVE A LOT ON THE ROADS AND
FREEWAYS IN. IT YOU SEEN FEWER
OF THEM OUT THERE IS ARE PRETTY
BUSY SO THAT'S A REQUEST YOUR
FUTURE TIME. AS FAR AS THE BOND
FINANCING.
IT'S A DEVIATION FROM THE WAY
THEY'VE DONE IT I THINK SENATOR
MCGUIRE MADE ELOQUENT COMMENTS
ABOUT THAT SO. I JUST APPRECIATE
THESE FEW MINUTES TO TO BRING
THIS ISSUE TO YOU AND IF YOU
LOOK AT THOSE CHARTS ARE FAIRLY
EASY TO. TO SEE A HAVE WHAT THE
TRENDS ARE FOR WORKLOAD. SO
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
NOT ASKING FOR TWO THOUSAND
ADDITIONAL OFFICERS KNOW THAT I
I WILL POINT OUT THERE OVER
TWENTY FIVE YEARS.
THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS WHEN DID
MANAGE IN WAS GOVERNOR IN
NINETEEN NINETY NINE TWO
THOUSAND JUST AS HE WAS LEAVING.
ISSUED A REPORT AND THAT REPORT
SAID THEY NEED TO OVER TWO
THOUSAND NEW OFFICERS. HOME AND
I WAS NINETY NINE TWO THOUSAND.
AND THERE'D BEEN A FEW REPORTS
ISSUED AT THE REQUEST OF THE
LEGISLATURE OVER THOSE YEARS AND
THE DEPARTMENT HAS OF STUDIES IF
YOU WANT TO REQUEST THEM. BUT
THEY WILL PROVIDE THEM I'M SURE.
AND THEY'VE ALL SHOWN THAT
NUMBER AND WE HAVEN'T WE HAVEN'T
COME IN WHO WE'VE NEVER ASKED
FOR THAT NUMBER.
BUT WITH THE PASSAGE OF SB ONE
AND IN THE NEW CONSTRUCTION
DOLLARS THAT WE SEE YEARS FIVE
BILLION DOLLARS A YEAR MOST OF
THAT WILL BE A CONSTRUCTION.
BUT WE PROVIDE SECURITY TO SAVE
LIVES AND PREVENT. INJURIES OF
PEOPLE WHO WORK IN THE
CONSTRUCTION ZONE AS WELL AS A
PUBLIC WHOSE ZOOM BY THESE
CONSTRUCTION ZONES.
AND WE WON'T HAVE ENOUGH STAFF
WITH THE INCREASED.
AMOUNT OF CONSTRUCTION JOBS SO
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO FIND A WAY
TO COVER IT THANK YOU THANK YOU.
ARE IT WILL CLOSE THE PUBLIC
HEARING.
OUR THOUGHTS HAVE BEEN EXPRESSED

YEAR.
THE FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS BEEN
REQUESTED IN TWENTY EIGHTEEN
NINETEEN CLUES FUNDS FOR THE
PROJECT MANAGEMENT OFFICE
STAYING UP THE PROJECT TEAM AND
THE TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENT TEAM.
WE NEED TO GET THE FILTER
FACILITY SET UP PURCHASE
EQUIPMENT BEGIN TRAINING OF
STAFF ON THE AGILE METHODOLOGY.
THAT WE CAN USE ALL THE CITIES
TO BE COMPLETED GIVE BEFORE
AWARD THE LARGE CONTRACT FOR THE
SYSTEM INTEGRATOR.
YOU KNOW THE DEPARTMENT COLLECTS
OVER EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS
ANNUALLY WITH A MATURE MAJORITY
OF THOSE FUNDS BEING TO TO TO
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND A WIDE VARIETY
OF STATE AGENCY.
THE EXISTING LEGACY SYSTEMS
DEVELOPED IN THE NINETEEN
EIGHTIES THE LANGUAGE AND
OPERANT SYSTEMS ARE SUPPORT
TODAY BY A VERY LIMITED NUMBER
OF STAFF.
A PROGRAM IS ON RECORD
OPERATIONS ARE AT RISK.
WITH AGE AND COMPLEXITY OF THE
SYSTEMS MAINTAIN SUPPORT IS
IMPERATIVE AND WE NEED TO BEGIN
THIS REPLACEMENT PROJECT.
WITH THIS COMMITTEES
UNDERSTANDING OF THE CRITICAL
NEED TO UPGRADE OUR SYSTEMS LAST
YEAR PROVED PROVISIONAL FINDING.
FOR A FEW KEY PROJECT* AND
NOT REQUESTING THEIR. FOR THE
ENTIRE PROJECT.
THE DEPARTMENT TECHNOLOGY WILL
PLAY A PRIMARY ROLE IN THE
PROJECT AS WE UTILIZE THE AGILE
METHODOLOGY TO DEVELOP NEW
SYSTEM IN PHASES WITH THE
DEVELOPMENT. OF THE BUSINESS
PARTNER FUNCTIONALITY FIRST AND
AUTO CLUBS AND FINALLY THE D. V.
FIELD OFFICES.
EACH PHASE WILL BUILD UPON THE
PREVIOUS PHASE WILL WORK WITH.
OUR DEPARTMENT STAFF HAS DONE IN
WITH ASSISTANCE OF THE
CARDIOLOGY WHERE SKILL TO PUT A
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. AT THE
BEGINNING OF THE FISCAL YEAR
TWENTY EIGHTEEN NINETEEN WITH A
PLAN TO AWARD THE CONTRACT IN
EARLY TWENTY NINETEEN.
THIS PROPOSAL ALSO INCLUDES
TRAILER BILL LANGUAGE THAT
AUTHORIZES THE DEPARTMENT
COLLECT AN ADDITIONAL ONE DOLLAR
FOR THE BUSINESS PARTNERS FOR
EACH TRANSACTION THE PROCESS TO
THE DEPARTMENT TO COVER
PROPORTIONAL. SHARE THE ONE TIME
COST OF EMPLOYING THE SYSTEM.
YEAH IN THE AGENDA THE STAFF ASK
COUPLE OF QUESTIONS NO ADDRESS
THOSE AND AS NEED THE DEPARTMENT
FINANCE AND PART OF TECHNOLOGY.
WILL ALSO ASSIST IN ANSWERING
TO THOSE QUESTIONS.
THE STAFF ASK HOW CONFIDENT IS
DEBIAN THE COST THE DISTRIBUTION
OF THOSE COSTS AND WHY THE COSTS
ARE NEEDED NOW.
WE WORK VERY CLOSELY WITH THE
DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY AND THE
DEPART FINANCE INCOMPLETE THE
FISCAL SEATS TIED.
TWO STAYS TO THE POWER PRICES
STAGE TWO IS WHERE COSTS ARE
ESTIMATED AND TO THE BEST OF OUR
ABILITIES BE BELIEVE THE COSTS
ARE ACCURATE. BECAUSE WERE
DEVELOPED BASED ON MARKET
RESEARCH AND EXPERIENCE WITH
PAST PROJECTS.
ELAINE OUT YOUR FUNDING COULD
IMPACT THE PROJECT BY
POTENTIALLY LIMITING THE
WILLINGNESS OF VENDORS TO
PARTICIPATE IN A MULTI YEAR
CONTRACT. WHEN ONLY ONE OF WOULD
ONLY CEATE YOUR FUNDING IS
AVAILABLE AND WE ALSO MAKE IT
MORE CHALLENGING RETAIN THE
TERRORIST AFTER WILL BE WORKING
ON THE PROJECT.
STAFF ALSO ASK WHAT HAPPENS IF
THE OFFER OVERALL PROJECT
BECAUSE SHE'S SO DEPEND ON THE
MOUND THE CHANGE THAT PART WE
REQUIRED TO COMPLETE A SPECIAL
PROJECT PORT. IN THE DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY AND PART FINANCE
COMPROMISED MORE INFORMATION ON
THAT PROCESS.
THE STEPMOTHER ALSO ASK WHY THE
PROPOSAL IS YOUR QUESTION
ONGOING FUNDING IN HOW
CONFIDENCE DE WITH THE ESTIMATE.
WHO WORKS AT THE DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY DETERMINED ESTIMATED
ONGOING CONSOLIDATED CENTER
COSTS ARE COMFORTABLE WITH THOSE
ESTIMATES? AND LASTLY THE STAFF
ASK WHY IT'S AN HONEST SINCE
THAT DATE FOR THE TRAILER BILL
BEING PROPOSED AND CONVERSATION
OF THE DEPARTED FINANCE. IT WAS
THOUGHT THAT WITH THE POTENTIAL
FOR ONE TIME COSTS INCREASE OR
WITH THE POTENTIAL TO TAKE LONG
TO COLLECT REVENUES BETTER TO
NOT IDENTIFY AN END DATE. BUT
ONCE A PUBLIC FUNDING IS
COLLECTED WILL WORK WITH THAT
PART FINANCE TO HAVE THE
STATUTORY LANGUAGE REMOVED.
SO I LET THE DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY INTO PART FINANCE
PROVIDE ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
IF YOU LIKE.
BASED. ON THE PART OF THE FOLLOW
UP ON THE STAFF QUESTIONS UP WE
DON'T WE HAVEN'T FINISHED THE
PROJECT BUT WE GOT ON GOING
MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION. HOW
THE SAP?
I HAD.
I'M THINKING ABOUT MY HOUSE THEY
JUST RENOVATED FOR RIGHT NOW I
GOTTA DO SOME MAINTENANCE
OPERATION BUT. IT'S BRAND NEW
WHICH IT'S IT'S.
I DIDN'T FIGURE I'M GOOD FOR
YEAR AT LACE RIGHT CPAS LASTING
FIFTY YEARS WHY IS THIS
DIFFERENT WHY DO WE NEED. THAT
PARTITION RIGHT NOW.
FINANCE.
GOOD MORNING OR GOOD AFTERNOON
AND MATT MASINA DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE.
.
SPEAKING TO THAT POINT DIRECTLY
I THINK IT'S.
REALLY.
THAT AND THIS UPCOMING FISCAL
YEAR EIGHTEEN NINETEEN THAT THEY
NEED TO AWARD A CONTRACT AND.
THAT CONTRACT IS TO.
IN DO MULTIPLE YEARS WORTH OF
WORK.
AND.
IT IT'S KIND OF HARD TO AWARD A
CONTRACT AND AND GET SOMEONE TO
TAKE THAT CONTRACT IF THEY'RE
NOT ASSURED OF THE MONEY.
BRIAN ROBINETTE WITH THAT
DEPARTMENT A TECHNOLOGY THE
DEPARTMENT UNDER WENT OVER A
YEAR. OF MARKET RESEARCH WHERE
THEY LAUNCHED A SURVEY WITH THE
AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF MOTOR
VEHICLE ADMINISTRATORS TO SURVEY
THE ENTIRE NATION.
HOW ARE THEY RESOLVING THE SAME
ISSUES AND REPLACED DOING
REPLACEMENT ON LEGACY SYSTEMS?
SO THEY HAVE A LOT OF GOOD
INFORMATION IN THAT IN THAT
RESEARCH.
THEY'D USED OUR CONSULTING
RESOURCES ARM OF DEPARTMENT OF
TECHNOLOGY WITH EXPERTS AND
SYSTEM DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT.
TO HELP THEM GET TO COST
REASONABLENESS.
AND THEY ALSO THE COSTS WERE
BASED ON THE LEVERAGED
PROCUREMENT AGREEMENTS THAT. ARE
RAN BY THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES WHERE THERE'S A COST
FEELING.
ON THE HOURLY RATES FOR THAT THE
SERVICES THAT ARE GONNA BE
RENDERED UNDER THAT UNDER THIS
SYSTEM REPLACEMENT. SO THERE'S A
LOT OF INFORMATION THAT THEY'VE
DONE IN TERMS OF PLANNING.
IT'S POSTED ON OUR DEPARTMENT
TECHNOLOGY WEBSITE.
SO IT SHOWS THE ENTIRE CYCLE OF
THEM DOING THIS THIS RESEARCH
AND PLANNING SO.
WHEN YOU'RE AT THIS.
CONFERENCE WOULD MOTOR VEHICLE
FOLKS GOING TO BE IT'S
SOUNDS UNBELIEVABLE ARE THE
VENDORS IS
AT THE VENDOR SEARCHES YOU CAN'T
GET A VENDOR. TO DO A ONE YEAR.
MAINTENANCE OPERATION OR
SUGGESTS IS THAT JUST WHAT'S OUT
THERE IS THAT THEY NEED THESE
MULTI YEAR.
CONTRACTS CONFIGURE WERE SORT
OF THE BIG CATCH HERE WITH.
BUT I WE THREE MILLION VEHICLES.
I WOULD SUBMIT THAT THAT IS SAD
GENERALLY. IN THE INDUSTRY HOW
IT WORKS IS THAT THEY THE VENDOR
ONCE A COMMITMENT THERE'S A
THERE'S A COMMITMENT FROM THE
VENDOR SIDE AND THERE'S A
COMMITMENT FROM THE DEPARTMENT
IN THIS CASE THE STATE.
THAT.
WE'RE OING TO COMPLETE THIS
PROJECT IN AND ONCE THEY SIGN
UP.
TO WORK ON THIS PROJECT THAT
THEY'RE GONNA CONTINUE THROUGH
COMPLETION AND LAUNCH.
FAX ALSO FOR THE FOR THE VENDOR.
THEY HAVE TO DEDICATE RESOURCES
AND.
MONIES TO THAT TO A PROJECT AND
TO COMMIT RESOURCES FOR ONE YEAR
WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT TO GET A
VENDOR TO TO BID ON A PROJECT
TO.
COMMIT TO THE SIZE FOR THAT OUR
DEPARTMENT TO COMMIT RESOURCES
FOR ONE YEAR SO.
THAT'S WHENIT CONCERNS IT'S
VENDORS THAT COMMIT TO A MULTI
YEAR PROJECT I'M JUST THINKING
WE PROBABLY IN CALIFORNIA HAVE
MORE CARS THAN.
ALL THE OTHER TEN WESTERN STATES
COMBINED RIGHT I MEAN OF IT'S
SORT OF YOU THINK THIS COULD BE
A PLUM.
CONTRACT THE PEOPLE AS WE UPDATE
OUR TECHNOLOGY TO DISS THIS IS
GONNA BE THE CADILLAC KEEPING IT
IN THAT VEHICLE. CLICHES IN THE
MOTOR VEHICLE WERE ALL THERE ARE
THERE ARE OTHER STATES AND HAVE
LEGACY SYSTEMS THEY ARE.
VENDORS ARE COMMITTING
RESOURCES TO THOSE OTHER STATES
FOR THOSE PROJECTS AND THOSE ARE
MARK TO YOUR PROJECTS AND SO.
WE'RE NOT THE ONLY D. V. THAT IS
HAS TO REPLACE OUR LEGACY
SYSTEMS AND AND THEY ARE ALL
MULTI YEAR PROJECT.
BELIAU YOUR COMMENTS.
AT A TIME WHEN HE WITH THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST FOR CONCERNS
ARE PRIMARILY WITH THAT PROCESS
THAN THE SUBSTANCE OF THE
REQUEST THE PROJECT CERTAINLY
HAS MERIT AND IS CONSISTENT WITH
LEGISLATIVE DIRECTION BUT. IT'S
PREMATURE TO PROVIDE FUNDING
PRIOR TO THE COMPLETION OF THE
FOUR STAGE PROJECT APPROVAL
PROCESS THE. LEGISLATURE
TYPICALLY WAITS FOR COMPLETION
OF STAGE FOUR WHICH WERE
EXPECTING IN JANUARY TWENTY
NINETEEN BEFORE FUNDING A
PROJECT AND IT GIVES YOU A
CHANCE TO EVALUATE COMPLETE
PLANNED BEFORE AUTHORIZING THAT
FUNDING. PARTICULAR BY THE END
OF THAT FORESEES PROCESS OF
VENDOR HAS BEEN SELECTED TO
THOSE COUPLES COSTS ARE MUCH
MORE CONCRETE THAN THEY MIGHT BE
RIGHT NOW EVEN WITH. AND WITH
STRONG ESTIMATES THAT ADDITION
IT'S PREMATURE AND OUT OF STEP
WITH COMMON PRACTICE TO PROVE
MULTI YEAR FUNDING WHICH AGAIN
UNDERMINES OVERSIGHT IN FUTURE
YEARS. THAT'S WHOSE ONE
UNDERSCORE THE LEGISLATURE'S
OVERSIGHT PREROGATIVE INNOCENCE.
BUT THE OFFICE TECHNOLOGY IS
JUST TESTIFIED THAT. THAT'S.
WHEN WE GO THIS CONFERENCE WOULD
MOTOR VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY PEOPLE
WHICH IS.
I'M STILL HAVING GOT PAST THAT
THAT THAT'S WHAT THAT'S WHAT THE
MARKET IS.
BUT THERE'S NOT IT WHY WHY WHY
pWAIT FOR THAT TECHNOLOGY BE
COMPLETED IN ORDER.
THE FARM SYSTEM SET UP YOU'VE
GOT TO.
FRONT LOAD THIS
I WOULD I WOULD SUBMIT SENATOR
THAT THE
FUNDING REQUEST IS CONSISTENT
WENT THROUGH THE BUDGET CHANGE
PROPOSAL PROCESS.
WHEREAS WHEN WE GET THE ROUGH
ORDER OF MAGNITUDE SET. AFTER
STAGE TWO OF THE PROJECT
APPROVAL LIFE CYCLE THAT IS WHEN
THE BUDGET IS SUBMITTED FOR
APPROVAL TO THE LEGISLATURE.
AND IT WOULD BE ANALOGOUS TO YOU
GETTING PRE QUALIFIED FOR A HOME
LOAN. WE GET PRE QUALIFIED AND
THEN THE FOR THE FINAL COST
OR WERE YOU NEED THAT THAT
APPROVAL. AND IN THIS CASE THE
PROJECT IS TRYING TO LAUNCH MADE
BUDGET CYCLE. WHICH MAKES IT
TIME A LITTLE DIFFERENT BUT IN
THE SAME BOAT WHERE THEY'VE DONE
ALL THE PLANNING AND RESEARCH
NEEDED TO GET TO THE GETTING THE
COST REASONABLE.
DO YOU THINK THERE BE SOME
CALIFORNIA'S WE'D LIKE TO SEE
DID TECHNOLOGY APPARATUS AT THE
DMV IMPROVED.
JUST THINKIN.

OFFICE IT'S WEAKENED PHAGE ASIAN
OF THE OFFICE ON SENATOR IN A
FULL OFFICE REPLACE OR JUST
RECONFIGURING THE LOBBY AND THE
WORKING SPACE SO THAT IT MAKES

A PLEASANT CHARMING ENVIRONMENT
YES.
I'VE REALLY WERE REQUESTING A
ONE POINT ONE IN DOLLARS TO FUND
THE PLENARY PLANS FOR INGLEWOOD
REQUESTING WE APPROPRIATION OF
FIFTEEN POINT ONE MILLION FOR
THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE. AND
LASSIE FOR STATE WHY PLAN
REQUEST SEEM TO THE THOUSAND
DOLLARS TO DEVELOP STAYS FOR
FUTURE RECONFIGURATION
RENOVATION PROJECTS HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
WELL YOU HAVE A REPORT.
WE'VE NO CONCERNS WITH THE
REQUESTED WOULD JUST NOTE THAT
THE TWENTY EIGHTEEN
INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN FOR THE
DEPARTMENT OF SIGNAL SLOWDOWN
FOR FUTURE OFFICE PROJECTS AND.
IS POSTPONING SEVERAL PROJECTS
ACROSS THE STATE AND THE FUTURE
REVIEWS OF PRIORITIES AND
PROPOSES DELAYING THE
REPLACEMENT OF SACRAMENTO
HEADQUARTERS AND TOGETHER.
THAT'S. ONE WAY THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION IS HOPING TO THE
REDUCE PRESSURE ON THE MOTOR
VEHICLE COUNT.
GREAT LET'S OF UP PUBLIC HEARING
ANYBODY THIS IS ISSUE NUMBER. A
TO AYE CAPITAL OUTLAY PROPOSALS.
BUDGET CHAIRMAN MEMBERS GREG
COOK REPRESENT THE GREATER
CALIFORNIA LIVERY ASSOCIATION.
I HOPE MY COMMENTS ARE
PERTINENT TO THIS ISSUE I
BELIEVE THEY ARE.
YOU MAY RECALL THAT IN DECEMBER
OF TWENTY FIFTEEN.
THE DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES
ABRUPTLY AND WITHOUT ANY PUBLIC
OPPORTUNITY TO PARTICIPATE
SUSPENDED THE COLLECTION OF
COMMERCIAL LICENSE FEES FOR
VEHICLES DRIVEN BY
TRANSPORTATION NETWORK COMPANY
OPERATIONS.
OF.
AT THE TIME THE PRESS SAID THE
TO DEPARTMENT WOULD BE DOING A
STUDY TO DETERMINE WHETHER OR
NOT THEY WANT TO.
CHARGES FEET THE STUDY HAS NOT
BEEN DONE.
AND THE FI HAS NOT BEEN
REINSTATED.
NO ONE KNOWS EXACTLY HOW MANY OF
BUT IF YOU READ THE PRESS
RELEASES BY. LIFTED OVER SPROXIL
A TWO HUNDRED BALLOTS.
ARE CALCULATIONS YOU ALL KNOW
THE TO THE VEHICLE A COMMERCIAL
LICENSE FEE IS BASED ON THE.
VEHICLE SIZE AND WEIGHT.
OUR CALCULATIONS ON AVERAGE
ABOUT TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS
PER VEHICLE WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS PER YEAR.
THAT THE STATE IS MISSING SO I
GOT UP ON THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I
CAN FIND YOUR FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS IT DIDN'T THAT THE
GOVERNOR'S ASKING FOR. JUST WITH
THE REINSTATEMENT OF THAT CITY.
THE STAFF COMMENT AT THE END OF
THIS PAPER INDICATES.
THAT CAPITAL OUTLAY PROJECTS
SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS PART OF
THE OVERALL APPROACH TO
MAINTAINING THE SOLVENCY.
OF THE MOTOR VEHICLE ACCOUNT I
COULDN'T AGREE MORE.
I HOPE IT NGUYEN NEWS WRAP UP
THE BUDGET CONSIDERATIONS THAT
YOU WILL CONSIDER THE ABSENCE OF
THIS CITY WHICH THUS FAR IN MY
OPINION HAS COST THE STATE. OVER
TEN MILLION DOLLARS IT IS AN
ANNUAL INCOME THAT OU'RE
MISSING A FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
AND I WOULD HOPE THAT.
BUDGET TRAILER LANGUAGE WOULD
ENCOURAGE DEMAND THE
REINSTATEMENT OF THIS COMMERCIAL
LICENSE FEE FOR TRANSPORTATION
UP BECOME BOLIVIA CALLS. LAST
YEAR THE LEGISLATURE.
APPROVED THE GOVERNOR TO.
SIGN SENATE BILL ONE EIGHTY TWO.
THAT LEGISLATION SAID THAT.
TNC VEHICLE OPERATORS DRIVERS.
IF THEY WERE REQUIRED BY ANY
CITY TO HAVE A BUSINESS ICENSE
FEE. BUT THAT LICENSE
BUSINESS LICENSE WOULD BE
APPLICABLE TO ALL CITIES IN
CALIFORNIA SO HE WOULDN'T HAVE
TO GET A SEPARATE LIVES TO
NEEDS.
GREAT LEGISLATION BUT WHAT IT
DOES IS IT UNDERSCORES THE
LEGISLATURE AND THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE RECOGNIZING THESE ARE
CLEARLY COMMERCIAL VEHICLES AND
THEY SHOULD BE LICENSED AND FEED
APPROPRIATELY THANK YOU VERY
MUCH.
YOU.
ART WILL HOLD THIS GOV.
THIS ITEM.
HOLD ITS GO TO PER AMERICA FROM
HER FENCING.
BUT MY FAVORITE SUBJECTS.
SO THE DEPARTMENTS QUEST
REQUESTING SIX POINT ONE MILLION
DOLLARS TO FUND THE DESIGN AND
CONSTRUCTION OF PERIMETER
FENCING AT THIRTEEN STATE OWNED
FIELD OFFICE LOCATIONS.
THIS WILL PREVENT UNAUTHORIZED
AFTER OUR AXES TO DEEMED
DISABILITIES AND WILL BETTER
PROTECT EMPLOYEES AND CON
CUSTOMERS.
THE THIRTEEN ALSO IDENTIFIED
HAVE DAILY WEEKLY INCIDENTS OF
HEALTH AND SAFETY ACTIVITIES
THAT NEED RESOLUTION. NINE
OFFICES WERE APPROVED INVITED
TWENTY SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN BUT
DUE TO HIGHER THAN EXPECTED
ESTIMATES TO THOSE OFFICES WERE
ADDED TO THIS REQUEST FOR A
TOTAL OF TWENTY OFFICES. FOR
BOTH PHASES.
STAFF ASKED US TO RESPOND TO TWO
QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS
PROPOSAL.
WHY ARE PREVENTIVE FANZINES MORE
APPROPRIATE SOLUTIONS AND
SECURITY GUARDS ARE REGULAR
CLEANING CONTRACTS?
WE BELIEVE FINANCING IS A MORE
APPROPRIATE SOLUTIONS AND
SECURITY GUARDS AND A REGULAR
CLEANING CONTRACTS IS A BETTER
PROTECTION OF THE STATE ASSETS.
THE ROD IRON FENCE PUT FANCY
PROTECTS THE OFFICE FROM
VANDALISM IN IMPROPER USE OF THE
FACILITY AFTER HOURS.
AT ONE TIME ONE TIME BECAUSE
THAT IS WHAT MUCH LESS THAN
CONTINUED COSTS FACILITY WITH
TWENTY FOR SOME SECURITY GUARDS
AND CLEAN CONTRACTS.
NOW WE ALSO ASKED IF WE HAVE
SOUGHT TO COOPERATE. TO OPERATE
WITH ANY LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT
ON HOMELESSNESS SERVICE AGENCIES
DISTRESSES ISSUED. SO WILL OUR
OFFICES WE DO PARTICIPATE IN
DIFFERENT HOMELESS OUTREACH
EVENTS.
IN SAN DIEGO STAFF ANY VOLUNTEER
IN THE PROJECT HOMELESS CONNECT.
AND IN THE COSTA MESA WE WORK
WITH HOMELESS SOLUTIONS AND ALSO
WORK WITH ORGANIZATIONS TO
PROVIDE IDENTIFICATION CARDS FOR
HOMELESS.
OFFICES ALSO HAVE SPOKEN TO SOME
SHELTERS IN THEIR RESOURCES ARE
SCARCE AS WELL AND SO THEY
UNABLE TO COME OUT IN ASSISTS.
WE'VE REACHED OUT TO LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND FOURTEEN THERE
ARE TIMES THAT THEY DEFERRED TO
SEE HP OR WILL COME BY REMOVE
FOLKS FROM. THE PROPERTY BUT THE
INDIVIDUAL STILL LEAVE THEIR
BELONGINGS AND DEBRIS FOR OUR
STAFF TO CLEAN UP ITS ALSO LATE
INDIVISIBLE TURN THE EVENING
AFTER LAW ENFORCEMENT HAS LEFT.
NOW WE HAVE ALSO REACHED OUT TO
SOME SHELTERS BUT THERE'S NOT
MUCH THAT THEY CAN DO FOR US TO
ASSESS SO HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS.
PALLIATIVE COMMENT. THE CONCERT
WITH RUSSELL. IT WOULD YOU
DISAGREE OR AGREE WITH THE.
OBSERVATION THAT FENCING WOULD
BETTER PROTECT THE STATE THE
STATE ASSETS.
I GUESS THAT WOULD APPLY TO
EVERY STATE BUILDING WE COULD
PUT FENCING AROUND AT ALL THAT
WOULD BE AT THE HIGH COSTS.
WE HAVEN'T STUDIED THAT QUESTION
IN DETAIL THROUGH TO HOW MUCH
OFFER ON THEIR.
LET'S OPEN UP TO PUBLIC HEARING
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC IT HERE
AND THIS IS SIX POINT ONE
MILLION. FROM MOTOR VEHICLE
ACCOUNT.
CLOSE CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING
QUESTIONS.

WE'LL KEEP THIS ITEM OPEN OUR.
JUST LEAVE IT AT THAT LET'S GO
TO OUR.
EACH OF THESE.
