MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS COUNTY
AUDITOR CONTROLLERS PLAY A VITAL
ROLE IN PROTECTING TAXPAYERS.
IN THE COUNTIES WHERE THEY WHERE
THEY OPERATE.
BY EVALUATING THE FINANCIAL
DECISIONS AND SPENDING WITHIN
THOSE COUNTIES.
BUT FORTUNATELY SOME AUDITOR
CONTROLLERS HAVE FACED
RETALIATION AND INTIMIDATION
AFTER THEY QUESTIONED THE
LEGALITY OF CERTAIN PAYMENTS.
THIS BILL PROVIDES AUDITOR
CONTROLLER IS THE ABILITY TO
SEEK OUTSIDE COUNSEL.
WHEN A CONFLICT OF OPINION AND
OR A CONFLICT OF INTEREST
BETWEEN THE AUDITOR CONTROLLER
AND COUNTY COUNCIL ARISES?

RESPONSIBLE FOR EVALUATING ALL

ALL COUNTY PAYMENTS.
A B. THIRTY SIXTY EIGHT FIXES A
CATCH TWENTY TWO THAT RESULTS
FROM A GAP IN STATE LAW BY
ALLOWING THE AYE COUNTY AUDITOR
CONTROLLERS TO OBTAIN OUTSIDE
COUNSEL WHERE THERE'S A CONFLICT
OF INTEREST WITH COUNTY COUNCIL.
ADDITIONALLY A. B. THIRTY SIXTY
EIGHT IMPROVES THE EXISTING
PROCESSES BY HAVING THE
PRESIDING JUDGE SELECT SPECIFIC
COUNCIL RATHER THAN THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS SELECTING THE
COUNCIL WHEN THE PRESIDING JUDGE
RULES THAT THERE IS A CONFLICT
OF INTEREST.
HAVING ACCESS TO OUTSIDE COUNSEL
WILL ALLOW AUDITOR CONTROLLERS

LIKE THE LOS ANGELES COUNTY
AUDITOR CONTROLLER WHO IS
APPOINTED BY THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS --
IF HE FELT IT WAS A CONFLICT
WITH COUNTY COUNCIL.
HE QUE GO TO THE PRESIDING JUDGE
OF LA COUNTY.
THE PROVIDING JUDGE WOULD HAVE A
HEARING LOOK AT IT AND THEN
DETERMINE WHETHER THEY THOUGHT
THERE WAS A CONFLICT OR NOT --
ONE SET PRESIDING JUDGE DECIDED
THERE WAS A CONFLICT --
DID AND THAT JUDGE COULD ALSO
PICK AN ATTORNEY BROUGHT BY.
OR THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
THEY'RE A LITTLE THERE'S LAKE.
LEVELS OF INDEPENDENCE YOU KNOW
WHAT I'M SAYING AT FIRST LEVEL

APPOINTED BY THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS [inaudible]
POINT.
NO NOT AIR THINK IT'S AN ITEM
THAT -- UP
AND PLEASE GROUP APPARENTLY
DEVICE YOUR PREFERENCES AND ITEM
THAT DOBSON ARE MORE LIKE IF HE
WAS HERE WOULD.
MOST LIKELY BE DISCUSSING IS
WELL OF OF WANTING AND TWENTY
NAY BALANCE --
AND ENSURING THAT THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS --
ALWAYS HAVE A VOICE IN THERE IS
SOME CONCERN AND AGAIN I DON'T
SPEAK FOR HIM ABOUT SEATING THAT
AUTHORITY --
AND AT THE SAME TIME THOUGH
WANTING TO BE ABLE TO ADVANCE
THIS IN HEADBAND SOME SOLUTIONS
TO SOME SIGNIFICANT QUITE STINKY
CHALLENGES THAT WE'VE SEEN IN
THE LOCAL LEVEL.
UP BETWEEN THESE POSITIONS AS
WELL SUPPORTER SUPERVISORS OKAY
THING THAT I JUST WANT TO MAKE
THAT POINT KNOWN.
BILL I'M VERY VERY GRATEFUL MRS
CENTER MINIMIZE YOUR UNDER BILL
BUT WE DO HAVE TO HAVE A
BALANCE-I HINK THOUGH IS THAT
WHAT
WE'VE BEEN SEEING IN THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS NOW.
ON THAT YOU KNOW WHAT'S
HAPPENING IN ORANGE COUNTY IS
ASH IT'S REALLY UNFORTUNATE.
LA WE'VE NEVER HAD THESE
PROBLEMS YOU KNOW ON ASSEMBLYMAN
DAILY AND I WERE THERE AT THE
COUNTY LEVEL TOGETHER.
ON DIFFERENT POSITIONS BUT WE'VE
ALWAYS HAD THE RESPECT AND ALLOW
THE ELECTED OFFICIALS THEY'RE
TAUNTED ME I'M EXPECTED THOSE
WHO WRITING CHECKS.
ON BEHALF OF THE COUNTY ON
BECAUSE ULTIMATELY IF SOMETHING
GOES WRONG YOU'RE THE ONE YOU'RE
SIGNATURE IS THE ONE THAT WE ARE
GONNA BLAME AND GO AFTER.
A AND SO I I THINK THIS IS A
GREAT BALANCE TO JUST ALLOW THE
IN THAT'S ALSO GIVING YOU A
THIRD PARTY WHICH IS THE JUDGES.
ON THE JUDGE CAN DEEMED AND IF
YOU DON'T HAVE GOOD ENOUGH TASTE
THEY'LL SAY YEAH I DON'T THINK
SO.
ON SOMETHING THAT'S A NICE CHECK
AND BALANCE THAT ALLOWS THIS TO
MOVE FORWARD SO IT'S NOT LIKE IF
YOU WANT TO SUE THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS AND EVERY OTHER DAY.
THAT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
ON IT AND SO I I I LIKE THE
BALANCE AND THEN I THINK IT'S
IT'S IT'S A GOOD BALANCE TO THE
FORCE OF THAT THERE'S SOME.
INDEPENDENCE ESPECIALLY IN THE
FINANCIAL SIDE GIVEN THAT ALSO
ORANGE COUNTY WE'VE HAD
FINANCIAL PROBLEMS IN THE PAST
AS WELL WE DON'T WANT A REPEAT
ANY OF THOSE [inaudible]

THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR FOR ALL OF
YOUR WORK IS ALWAYS WONDERFUL
DECEIVE.
BUDGET TO WORK WITH YOU SENATOR
--
GOOD MORNING AND CHAIR MEMBERS
AB TWENTY NINETEEN BUILT ON THE
WORK OF THE ASSEMBLY LOCAL
GOVERNMENT COMMITTEE.
THE BILL FROM LAST YEAR AB
SEVENTEEN TWENTY EIGHT BY
INCREASING TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THE
CALIFORNIA'S HEALTH CARE
DISTRICTS.
AS REFRESHER LAST YEAR AB
SEVENTEEN TWENTY EIGHT ESTABLISH
SOME BIT VERY BASIC TRANSPARENCY
AND ACCOUNTABILITY MEASURES. FOR
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS BY
REQUIRING THEM TO DO SINCE THREE
SIMPLE THINGS.
ADOPTING ANNUAL BUDGET ESTABLISH
AN INTERNET WEBSITE WITH CONTACT
INFORMATION FOR THE DISTRICT AND
ADOPT ANNUAL POLICIES FOR GRANT
FUNDING.
THIS BILL AB TWENTY NINETEEN
TAKES ANOTHER STEP IN THESE
EFFORTS TO BY REQUIRING
HEALTHCARE DISTRICTS TO POST
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THEIR
WEBSITES INCLUDING.
THEIR ADOPTED BUDGETS A LIST OF
CURRENT BOARD MEMBERS
INFORMATION REGARDING PUBLIC
MEETINGS THAT EXISTING LAW
ALREADY REQUIRES OF HEALTH CARE
DISTRICTS.
RECIPIENTS OF GRANT FUNDING
PROVIDED BY THE DISTRICT.
AUDITS AND FINANCE REPORTS OF
EXISTING LAW ALREADY REQUIRES
FOR HEALTH CARE DISTRICT.
AND DISTRICT GRANT POLICIES AB
TWENTY NINETEEN ALSO REQUIRES
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS TO ADD
SOME.
ELEMENTS TO THE GRANDPA OF
CITIES INCLUDING REQUIREMENTS
THAT A GRANTS RECIPIENT MUST
MEET AND THEY PROCESS FOR
PROVIDING ACCEPTING A RIVER
VIEW.
GRANT APPLICATIONS.
THE DISTRICTS PLAN FOR DISTRICTS
DISTRIBUTING GRANT FUNDS FOR THE
FIT EACH FISCAL YEAR.
AND A PROHIBITION AGAINST
INDIVIDUALS MEETINGS REGARDING
GRANT APPLICATIONS BETWEEN GRANT
APPLICANT AND A DISTRICT BOARD
MEMBER OFFICER OR STAFF OUTSIDE
THE DISTRICTS TO SALVAGE GRANT
AWARDS PROCESS.
AB TWENTY NINETEEN ALSO REQUIRES
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS TO INCLUDE
ADDITIONAL GUIDELINES ON SPECIAL
SPECIFIC ISSUES IN THE GRANT
POLICIES THING.
GIVES THEM AN EXTRA YEAR TO DO
THIS BY JANUARY.
TWENTY TWENTY THE GOAL IS TO
ENSURE THE DISTRICTS CONSIDER
DELIBERATELY WHAT THEIR
GUIDELINES WILL BE AWARDING
GRANTS AND TO MAKE THOSE
GUIDELINES AVAILABLE TO THE
PUBLIC.
WE HAVE FOCUSED ON GRANT
POLICIES BECAUSE APPROXIMATELY
20% OF HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS
ENGAGE IN NO OTHER ACTIVITY.
OUTSIDE OF AWARDING GRANTS WE
BELIEVES THESE GRANT POLICIES
SHOULD BE ROBUST AND EASILY
ACCESSIBLE TO THE PUBLIC.
AB TWENTY NINETEEN ALSO REQUIRES
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS TO NOTIFY
THEIR RESPECTIVE LOCAL AGENCY
FORMATION COMMISSION WHEN
FUNDING FOR BANKRUPTCY.
IN RESPONSE TO THE NUMBER OF
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS THAT HAVE
DECLARED BANKRUPTCY.
FINALLY AB TWENTY NINETEEN
REQUIRE SENATE SET ASIDE FOR
AFFORDABLE UNITS WHEN HEALTH
CARE DISTRICTS USE DESIGN BUILD.
TO CONSTRUCT HOUSING WITH
EXCEPTIONS FOR CERTAIN
FACILITIES TO PROVIDE CARE FOR
ELDERLY DISABLED ADULTS OR THOSE
WITH DID THOSE WITH DEMENTIA.
FOR WORKFORCE HOUSING THAT IN A
LOCAL ORDINANCE MIGHT REQUIRE.
THIS BILL IS INTENDED TO BUILD
ON THE FOUNDATION STARTED BY AB
SEVENTEEN TWENTY EIGHT AND TO
CONTINUE THE CONVERSATION THE
NEEDS TO COURT OCCUR IN THE
LEGISLATURE REGARDING.
THE BROAD POWERS WE HAVE GRANTED
HEALTH CARE DISTRICTS SOME OF
THE CHALLENGES THAT THEY FACE
AND HOW TO BEGIN ADDRESSING
THESE CHALLENGES.

CHAIR.
PREHEAT THE ROLE OPEN.
MEMBERS ARE NOW GOING TO BE
MOVING FORWARD TO FILE ITEM
NUMBER THREE AB SEVENTEEN
SEVENTY WE ARE.
DID THAT SYSTEM MEMBER STEINORTH
IS HERE.
ASSUMING YOU HAVE BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT ON YOUR BILL SO WE'RE
GOING TO ASK YOU TO BE TO
PROVIDE US WITH A BRIEF
PRESENTATION.
BUT YOU DO HAVE BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT IN A SIMILAR IT'S ALWAYS
GREAT TO SEE SIR I YOU HAVE A
FANTASTIC GLAD LEGISLATIVE AIDE
WHO WAS WITH YOU AS WELL --
AND I'M VERY GRATEFUL YOU'RE
HERE.
THANK YOU THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MISTER CHAIR I'M THINK YOU FOR
THE OPPORTUNITY PRESENTS
SEVENTEEN SEVENTY WHICH IS A
MARKET WHICH WILL MODERNIZE AND
CLARIFY THE PRECONDITIONS
REQUIRED FOR ASSET BACKED
SECURITIES AND OTHER PASS
THROUGH SECURITIES.
I'M LOCAL AGENCIES ARE ALLOWED
TO PURCHASE.
LOCAL AGENCIES OPPORTUNITIES FOR
INVESTMENT AND HIGHLY RATED
ASSET BACKED SECURITIES HAVE
BEEN UNNECESSARILY LIMITED BY
REQUIRING AN ISSUER RATING OF A
OR BETTER.
THE ENTITIES THAT ARE BEING
LABELED THE ISSUE.
TIES TO THE ACID BACK TRUSTS
THAT ARE BEING PURCHASED AND
THEREFORE THERE RATING SHOULD
NOT BE TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION.
AB SEVENTEEN SEVENTY WILL ALLOW
LOCAL AGENCIES ACCESS TO DOUBLE
A AND TRIPLE A RATED SECURITIES
THAT ARE CURRENTLY INELIGIBLE
FOR PURCHASE BY REMOVING THE
ISSUER RATING REQUIREMENT.
AGENCIES WILL STILL BE LIMITED
TO PURCHASING HIGHLY RATED
SECURITIES PRESERVING THE SAFETY
OF AGENCIES PORTFOLIOS I WOULD
LIKE TO INTRODUCE JOHN JOHNSON
FOR THE FEAR MEDINA COUNTY TAX
COLLECTOR'S OFFICE WHO'S HERE TO
TESTIFY IN SUPPORT NANCY NEED
ANY TECHNICAL QUESTIONS.
SOMEONE THINK YOU SO MUCH AS
JOHNSON WE WORK WE DO COMMITTEE
YOU DO HAVE BIPARTISAN SUPPORT
WORKING AS FOR REPEATING TAKE
SHOULDN'T THE FLOORS ARE CERTAIN
WELCOME.
THANK YOU CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS
OF THE COMMITTEE --
IF I'M HERE ALSO ON BEHALF OF
CONTACT THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY TREASURER
TAX COLLECTORS WHICH HAS
SPONSORED THE BILL AND AND
ASSEMBLY MEMBER AS STEINORTH A
AUTHORED AND WE THANK YOU --
AGAIN THE DILEMMA THAT WE FACE
--
WITH REGARD --
TO MEETING THE REQUIREMENTS OF
THIS --
SUBSECTION ARE PRIMARILY WITH
TWO AREAS AGAIN THE AREA I
REGARDING THE CREDIT RATINGS
WHICH THERE'S AN A RATING
REQUIREMENT FOR THE ISSUER.
AND THERE'S A DOUBLE A RATING%
REQUIREMENT ARE HIGHER FOR THE
ACTUAL SECURITIES ARE DEBT.
THAT ARE ISSUED DUE TO THE
WATERFALL OF SECURITY --
SECURITIZATION --
THESE ASSETS ARE SOLD OFF THE
BEEN WHEN SHE'D --
PASS THROUGH THROUGH A SPECIAL
PURPOSE VEHICLE THE SECURITY OF
THE SECURITIZED TRUSTS IS
ACTUALLY THE ISSUE WERE AT THE
SECURITIES AND THE MAJORITY OF
THESE ARE NOT.
A RATED BY THE RATING AGENCY SO
IT REALLY CREATES A DILEMMA WHEN
WE'RE TRYING TO PURCHASED BY
ASSET BACKED --
YOU KNOW AUTO ACID BACK CREDIT
CARD ASSET BACKED UP WITH AT
LEAST ASSET BACKED SECURITIES --
THE OTHER AREA THAT IS OF MAJOR
CONCERN IS WITH THE PLACEMENT OF
A COMMA IN THE CURRENT LANGUAGE.
COULD BE AND CAN BE INTERPRETED
TO ONLY --
RESTRICT --
THE CONSUMER RECEIVABLE BACK
BONDS TO A FIVE YEAR MAXIMUM
MATURITY AND DUE TO THE HIGH
RISK.
AND CREDIT RISK AND POTENTIAL
EXTENSION RISK WITH THE SIX
SECURITY TYPES.
THE ARE COUNTY TREASURERS
BELIEVE STRONGLY TO PRESERVE
SECURITY A SAFETY LIQUIDITY AND
YIELD THAT THAT THESE BE LIMITED
TO A HARD FIVE YEAR FINAL AND
THE LANGUAGE CHANGE IN THIS
BILL.
SIMPLY DOES THAT IT ENSURES THAT
WE HAVE A HARD FIVE YEAR FINAL
ON ALL SECURITIES ENUMERATED
UNDER THIS SUBSECTION.
AND IT AGAIN ELIMINATES THE NEED
FOR AN ISSUER RATING WHICH WE
CANNOT APPLY.
I'D BE HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR
WOULD LIKE TO GO TO SEE IF
THERE'S ANYONE ELSE IN SUPPORT
OF THE BILL IF YOU COULD PLEASE
COME FORWARD THIS TIME ANYONE
ELSE IN SUPPORT.

MOMENT. TO SAY THANK YOU TO MISS
GOVERNOR OF FOR ALL THE
COLLABORATION ON THIS BILL FOR
WORKING WITH US I SHE HAS BEEN.
NOTHING BUT BUT WONDERFUL TO
WORK WITH AND IT REALLY MEANS A
LOT NECESSITY A MEDICINE WOMAN.

COMMITMENTS.

DISADVANTAGE COMMUNITY
AMENDMENTS THAT I HAVE BEEN
PROPOSED BY THE COMMITTEE THANK
YOU VERY MUCH.
SO CONSISTENT WITH THE
RECOMMENDATIONS MADE IN THE TWO
THOUSAND SEVENTEEN LITTLE HOOVER
COMMISSION REPORT AB.
TWENTY TWO FIFTY EIGHT WOULD
PROVIDE LAST CLOSE OR LOCAL
AGENCY FORMATION COMMISSIONS
WITH THE ONE TIME SMALL INFUSION
OF GRANT FUNDS. TO FOCUS EFFORTS
ON STREAMLINING LOCAL GOVERNMENT
AND IMPROVING EFFICIENCY IN
SERVICE DELIVERY.
WOULD ESTABLISH A FUNDING
PROGRAM ADMINISTERED BY THE
STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNSEL TO
PROVIDE LAUGH CHO WITH FUNDS TO
CONDUCT PARTIAL STUDIES AND
ANALYSES OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT
AGENCIES AND SERVICES. FOR THE
PURPOSE OF STREAMLINING THE RE
OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT SERVICES.
GRANT FUNDS WOULD BE USED TO
CONDUCT THE SPECIAL STUDY.
AND TO POTENTIALLY INITIATE
ACTIONS ON THOSE STUDIES THAT
REMOVE OR REDUCE LOCAL COST. TO
US INCENTIVIZING LOCAL AGENCIES
TO WORK WITH BLACK CHO IN
DEVELOPING AND IMPLEMENTING THE
REORGANIZATION PLANS.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT
CERTAIN DID DETERMINATIONS MUST
BE MADE BY THE LASCAUX
INDICATING THE AGENCY SHOULD BE
REORGANIZED ARE DISSOLVED.
AND THE MUNICIPAL SERVICE REVIEW
MUST BE CURRENT SUCH THAT IT WAS
PRODUCED WITHIN THE LAST FIVE
YEARS.
THE GRANT PROGRAM WHIH SUNSET
ON DECEMBER THIRTY FIRST.
TWENTY TWENTY THREE THE BILL
ALSO CHANGES THE PRO PROTESTS
THRESHOLD 225% OF BURLAP GOES
INITIATED ACTION SOLELY FOR THE
PURPOSES OF ACTIONS FUNDED
THROUGH THE GRANT.
THERE BEEN SOME MISCONCEPTIONS
ABOUT AB.
TWENTY TWO FIFTY EIGHT HERE IS
WHAT THIS BILL DOES NOT DO IT
DOESN'T CHANGE THE STANDARD
PROTEST THRESHOLD FOR ANY OTHER
LAUGH CHO INITIATED ACTION.
DOES NOT REMOVE THE PEOPLE'S
RIGHT TO PROTEST IT SIMPLY MERS
EXISTING STATUTE FOR NON LAUGH
CHO INITIATED ACTIONS.
AND THEREFORE DOES NOT
DISENFRANCHISE LOCAL RESIDENTS
IT DOESN'T ALTER IN ANY WAY THE
ORIGINAL INTENT OF THE COURT TV
KNOCKS HERTZBERG REORGANIZATION
ACT.
AND THE BELT IS NOT GIVE LAUGH
CHO NEW POWERS AND IT.
NEW POWERS AND IT IS AN
IMPORTANT STEP TOWARDS PROVIDING
LAUGHED BECAUSE THE RESOURCES
NEEDED TO ADDRESS AGENCIES THAT
HAVE ALREADY BEEN IDENTIFIED AS
THOSE WAS KNOWN SERVICE ORGAN
BUT IT'S ISSUES.
WITH ME TODAY IS PAMELA MILLER
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE
CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF LOCAL
AGENCY PERMISSION COMMITTEE

TO FOLLOW BUT I'LL DO MY BEST
HERE.
AB TWENTY TWO FIFTY EIGHT IS A
FOLLOW UP TO LITTLE HOOVER
COMMISSION REPORT FROM LAST YEAR
AND SEEKS TO ADDRESS SEVERAL
SIGNIFICANT DETERRENCE.
BOB BECAUSE FACE WHEN INITIATING
ACTIONS PERTAINING TO
REORGANIZATIONS AND CHANGE OF
ORGANIZATIONS.
THREW AB TWENTY TWO FIFTY EIGHT
LEFT BECAUSE WILL HAVE ACCESS TO
RESOURCES THAT ALLOW FOR THEM
AND SERVICE PROVIDERS TO WORK
TOGETHER TO CREATE GREATER
EFFICIENCIES IN THE DELIVERY OF
SUSTAINABLE MUNICIPAL SERVICES.
THE BILL PROVIDES FOR LIMITED
GRANT PROGRAM WAS PROCESSES FOR
LAUGH BECAUSE TO ADDRESS KNOWN
SERVICE AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES
THAT COULD POTENTIALLY SAVE
CALIFORNIA TAXPAYERS.
ADDITIONAL MONEY AS A RESULT OF
IMPROVE SERVICE DELIVERY.
THE USE OF THE PROPOSED GRANT
FUNDS IS STRICTLYDEFINED IN THE
BILL AND NOTED IN THE ANALYSIS.
PROCESS REQUIRES AS THE ASSEMBLY
MEMBER STATED AN EXISTING
MUNICIPAL SERVICE REVIEW TO BE
ON FILE.
WITH DETERMINATIONS INDICATING
EFFICIENCIES CAN BE GAINED BY
CHANGE OF ORGANIZATION OR
REORGANIZATION.
IN ORDER TO BOTH STUDY THE
SERVICE PROVIDER FURTHER OR
INITIATE ACTION.
WITH ABOUT HALF OF THE LAB
BECAUSE STATEWIDE HAVING AN
ANNUAL BUDGET OF LESS THAN TWO
HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS.
THIS MONEY WILL GO A LONG WAY IN
HELPING LEFT BECAUSE TO FILL A
PART OF THEIR MISSION.
IN ADDITION TO ADDRESSING THE
SIGNIFICANT FUNDING TO TURN THE
BILL ADDRESSES ANOTHER
SIGNIFICANT DETERRENT WHICH IS
THE PROTESTS THRESHOLDS.
BY MIRRORING EXISTING STATUTE
LEVELS NOT CREATING NEW ONES.
FOR NON LEFT GOING TO SHEETED
ACTION FOR A LIMITED TIME THIS
CHANGE KEEPS THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT
TO PROTEST IN PLACE AND KEEP
THESE DECISIONS LOCAL WHERE THEY
SHOULD BE.

PROVIDING LIFE BECAUSE THE TOOLS

AMENDED A VERY PARTICULARLY
INVOLVING THE PROTESTS THRESHOLD
--
JOB PRETTY NARROW IN SCOPE PASS
CARE A WE DO NOT CONCUR WITH OUR
FRIENDS AND PARTNERS SAID
CALLOUT CHO.
THAT IT DOESN'T CREATE A NEW --
PROTEST THRESHOLD FOR LAUGHS CHO
INITIATED ACTIONS THAT BY
PUTTING THIS IN THE PUBLIC
RESOURCES CODE AND THEN CROSS
REFERENCING BACK TO SEE K. H. --
IT THE REFERENCES A PARTICULAR
SECTION.
THAT HAS A HIGHER PROTESTERS
HOLD THEN.
IF IT WAS TRULY A MIRROR --
THIS IS CERTAIN ALTERNATE --
PROTEST THRESHOLD --
IN OUR VIEW AND THAT IS THE ONE
AMENDMENT AFTER THAT WE WOULD.
MOST LIKELY BE ABLE TO SUPPORT
THE MEASURE.
THINK AS MUCH AS TEN WHO WERE
ASKED AIMS TO SECOND IS WHAT
THINK YOU.
SO WE WELCOME YOU TO MY
INDIVIDUAL PERSON LASSEN
ORGANIZATION THINK FOR TAKING
THE TIME TO RISKY.
TO THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS OF MY NAME IS BOB READ
THEM WITH THE READ THE
GOVERNMENT RELATIONS
[inaudible]
AND THE CALIFORNIA SPECIAL
DISTRICTS ASSOCIATION.
A THE AGENCIES OPPOSE UNLESS
AMENDED.
AND FIRST OF ALL LIKE TO THINK
THE TIME THAT --
THE CONSULTANT SPENT THIS LAST
WEEK AND ALSO WITH ASSEMBLY
MEMBER CABALLERO STAFF.
A FRANKLY FRUSTRATED MISTER
CHAIRMAN WITH THE TESTIMONY OF
THE SUPPORTERS THAT SEEM TO
INDICATE THAT.
WE'RE NOT CHANGING THE THING
HERE IT'S IT'S KIND LIKE THE OBI
WAN KENOBI IN A TEST.
I SAT AROUND THE TABLE IN TWO
THOUSAND WITH THEN SPEAKER
HERTZBERG. FOR MANY MONTHS
WORKING WITH ALL STAKEHOLDERS
LOCALS --
AGENCIES BUILDERS --
ENVIRONMENTAL ADVOCATES PLANNERS
ON PROVISIONS OF THE WHAT THEN
BECAME THE CORTESE NOTS
HERTZBERG LAW.
AND SO ON AND AND THIS BILL.
IN FACT CHANGES THAT PROCEDURES
AND PRACTICES OF PROTECTIONS
THAT WERE NEGOTIATED IN.
TWO THOUSAND IT'S TROUBLING THAT
THIS BILL DOES SO BY AMENDING
THE PUBLIC RESOURCES CODE
COMPLETELY OUTSIDE OF THE
CORTESE NOTS HERTZBERG ON THE
GOVERNMENT CODE SOME NOW IF THIS
BILL PASSES WE'RE GOING TO HAVE
TWO DIFFERENT.
MEANS OF LOOKING AT LOCAL
GOVERNMENT REORGANIZATION.
TRUST ME CORTESE NOTS HERTZBERG
IS CHALLENGING ENOUGH TO WORK
THROUGH AS A LOCAL AGENCY A
DISHWASHER HERTZBERG HERE TO SAY
THAT A HERE THAT AND KID HAZY
THERE GO [inaudible] TO TO GO TO
WORK THROUGH. TO NOW HAVE A 10%
THRESHOLD PROTESTS PROVISION
CORTESE NOTS HERTZBERG.
WHERE THE COMMISSION INITIATES
USING ITS OWN FUNDS?
AND A 25% THRESHOLD PROTEST WHEN
STATE FUNDS ARE USED.
NOW REMEMBER THAT WATER
DISTRICTS ASIDE FROM SPECIAL
AGENCIES.
WORK CREATED BY LOCAL VOTERS.
UNDER STATE LAW THROUGH
FORMATION ACTIONS AND ELECTIONS.
THE REASON THAT THERE'S TWO
DIFFERENT THRESHOLDS FOR
PROTESTS WHEN THERE'S A
ORGANIZATION A REORGANIZATION IS
THAT.
WHERE THE LOCAL AGENCIES
GOVERNING BODIES THEMSELVES
PETITION LAUGH GO TO
CONSOLIDATE?
THERE'S A HIGHER THRESHOLD 25%
PRTEST. FOR THE PEOPLE WHO ARE
IN THAT AGENCY.
WHERE THIRTY SECONDS WHERE LAUGH
CHO?
INITIATES THERE'S A 10%
THRESHOLD IN THE REASON BEING IS
THAT.
THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVE BY
THOSE LOCAL AGENCIES SHOULD HAVE
THE ABILITY. TO PROTEST THE
ACTION OF AN APPOINTED LOCAL
COMMISSION LIKE LAUGH CHO.
IT DOESN'T STOP.
THE PROCEEDINGS IT SIMPLY PUTS
THE MATTER BEFORE AN ELECTION SO
THAT EVERYONE CAN HAVE THE
ADEQUATE [inaudible]
TIME DEBATE. TO LOOK AT THE
QUESTIONS OF THE CONSOLIDATION.
WE CONCUR WITH THE ISSUES AND
CONCERNS RAISED BY THE COMMITTEE
ANALYSIS.
WE THINK IT'S CLEARLY PREMATURE
AND TO CHANGE THE THRESHOLD.
THROUGH THIS BILL.
THAT IF THE LAUGH GOES WHO HAVE
PROVIDED NO EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE
OF ISSUES WITH THESE PROTESTS
THRESHOLDS THEY WANT TO SIT DOWN
AND READ.
WORK CORTESE NOTS HERTZBERG WE'D
BE HAPPY TO SIT DOWN WITH THEM
LIKE WE DID EIGHTEEN YEARS AGO
AND WORK THROUGH IT THIS FALL
AND BRING BACK LEGISLATION NEXT
YEAR.
THAT IS MORE WELL THOUGHT OUT
MORE DEBATED HAS GREATER
STAKEHOLDER PARTICIPATION ABSENT
THAT WOULD ASK FOR A NO VOTE
DON'T THINK SOME ASSURE VERY
GRATEFUL AND HAVE BOTH STEVE
GERMAN TO STAY UP HER FOR NOW.
WE'RE GONNA ASK FOR THOSE ANYONE
ELSE WHO ARE IN SUPPORT IF HE OR
EXCUSE ME WHO ARE OPPOSED KEY
PLEASE COME FORWARD ANYONE ELSE
WHO MAY BE OPPOSED TO KEEP
PLEASE ADVANCE THE MICROPHONE
[inaudible]
LAST CALL.
WHEN I WOULD LIKE TO BETTER
BRING IT BACK TO COMMITTEE
CLIMB?
I DO BELIEVE CENTER BETTER IN
THE MORNING GO CENTER MARLA.
COULD YOU EXPLAIN --
THE READ THE BILL THE ROLE OF
THE STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNCIL.
YES THAT WAS ONE THING I DON'T
QUITE SOON OVER THERE GOING TO
GIVE MONEY TO YES.
LEFT GOES WELL YES SO NOW THAT
WERE SOMEWHAT THIS STRATEGIC
GROWTH COUNCIL WOULD WOULD DIE
DO THE GRANTS AND THEY THE APPLE
ASIANS WOULD COME FROM THE LEFT
COAST.
AND THEY'D HAVE TO BOMB DOCUMENT
THAT THEY'VE GOT A CURRENT MSR
DIED ARTICULATES IT THERE ARE
SOME EFFICIENCIES THAT COULD BE
--
ACHIEVED BY GOING OUT DOING A
SPECIAL STUDY.
AND AND THE STRATEGIC GROWTH
COUNCIL WOULD WOULD TAKE A LOOK
AT THOSE APPLICATIONS AND
DETERMINE WHO GETS THE
APPLICATION AND WHO DOESN'T TOM
WE THERE HAS BEEN A WE HAVE.
SURVEY.
OF THE LAST GOES AND THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF LAST GOES AROUND THE
STATE'S A BELIEF THAT THAT THIS
RESOURCE COULD BE VERY VALUABLE
TO THEM IT'S NOT ALL OF THEM AT
NIGHT I DON'T REMEMBER THE
NUMBER QUITE FRANKLY BODIES OF
THE IT IT WOULD BE.
IT WOULD BE A FINANCIAL IT WOULD
BE A FINANCIAL ANNA AND THEY ARE
A LOOK AT THAT AT HOW THE THE
ENTITY IS FUNCTIONING --
WE DID A HEARING AND LOCAL
GOVERNMENT IN THE ASSEMBLY WHERE
WE LOOKED AT THE HOSPITAL
DISTRICTS AND WE DISCOVERED THAT
THERE WERE SOME WHO DID NOT HAVE
BOARDS --
AND WHO WERE NOT SPENDING THE
MONEY ON WHAT WHAT WE THOUGHT
WAS APPROPRIATE --
GIVEN THEIR THEIR MISSION --
AT AND IT THERE BUT THEY'RE
BEING CREATED MANY YEARS AGO AND
WHAT WE FOUND IS THAT THE
HOSPITAL.
THAT DIED FUND USED TO HELP
FIND.
WAS NO LONGER IN OPERATION AND
SO THE IT SAYS AND SO THOSE
THOSE THAT'S AN EXAMPLE OF OF MY
WORLD.
EXAMPLE EVER HAVE TO DO IT LIKE
LAND USE AND THOSE KINDS OF
ISSUES HOUSING LAND USE
[inaudible]
PLANNING INFRASTRUCTURE.
YOU KNOW SO WOULDN'T LET ALMOST
CRUEL SECOND ESTO LEFT BECAUSE
ARE NOT ANY LAND USE.
ENTITY WELL ONLY THEY ARE BUT
THEY DO THEY THEY DO HAVE TO
FACTOR IN THE THINGS THAT --
ARE LINED WITH A STRATEGIC
GROWTH COUNSEL'S MISSION A
PURSUANT TO NPOS AND THE AND THE
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGIES
--
AND SO IN THAT RESPECT YES THEY
DO HAVE TO CONSIDER THOSE THINGS
IN THEIR DECISION MAKING
PROCESS.
THE AS ADMINISTER OF THE GRANT
PROGRAM THIS THE COUNCIL.
WILL NOT ONLY A REVIEW THE
APPLICATIONS BUT THE LEFT GOES.
UP MUST PROVIDE A REPORTS BACK
TO THE STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNSEL
AND THE CONTENTS THE MINIMUM
CONTENTS OF THOSE REPORTS ARE
OUTLINED IN THIS THEY GET
INVOLVED IN THE STRATEGIC GROWTH
COUNSEL'S MISSION OF OF
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES --
LAND USE [inaudible]
DEVELOPMENT SO.
SERVICES TO DEVELOPMENT
CHARACTERS THE URBAN SERVICE
BOUNDARIES YES ARE.
THOSE KINDS URBAN SERVICE AREA
ISSUES YES OF OKAY SO THERE
ISN'T ASKING NOTICES SONG --
I'M BEGINNING TO THINK THAT WE
NEED.
TO HAVE SOME MORE LEGISLATORS
SOME FORMAL.
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT AT SOME
POINT WE CAN DISCUSS THIS WITH.
OF THE STRATEGIC GROW COUNCIL
WHAT THEY'RE DOING YOU KNOW KIND
OF YOU KNOW BECAUSE I DON'T
THINK WE DO THAT OKAY I'M JUST
SAYING THERE'S BECAUSE I THINK
THIRD THE RESPONSIBILITIES ARE
IMPORTANT.
AND THIS IS GOING TO ADD SOME
RESPONSIBILITY BUT I THINK WE
HAVE TO HAVE SOME LEGISLATIVE
OVERSIGHT ABOUT WHAT THEY'RE
DOING.
OKAY SO SO MAYBE --
MISTER CHAIRMAN.
WE CAN CONTINUE DISCUSS THAT
TOPIC AND TALK ABOUT HOW WE
FACILIATE LEGISLATORS.
OVERSIGHT OVER STRATEGIC GROW
COUNCIL THAT THINK THAT DE
[inaudible]
THROUGH.
THE PARTNERSHIP THAT WE'VE HAD
AND MAYBE WE CAN DO A JOINT
HEARING WITH BTH.
INNOCENT WE CAN DISCUSS LATER
BUT SENATE --
TRANSPORTATION HOUSING AS WELL
AS I COME FIVE BUT THAT I'M.
LOOKING THURMOND MY COMMITTEE
VERY CAREFULLY.
SO THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I THINK
THAT WE GO TO A MISSOURI THANK
YOU SO MUCH AS A SENATOR.
WHAT WHAT ASSAYS ON ON ON THE
BILL IN A VERY VERY GRATEFUL TO
SOMEONE ON THIS COMMUNITIES ARE
IN GREATEST NEED? FOR THOSE
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES WITHIN
THESE POTENTIAL STUDIES --
THAT HAVE THE MOST SIGNIFICANT
CHALLENGES --
AS WELL AS CANDID LEAD HAVE BEEN
IGNORED AT TIMES --
AND I DO BELIEVE THAT THIS WILL
ASSIST THEM.
I PARTICULARLY IN THE CORNERS OF
CALIFORNIA --
THAT AT TIMES HAVE BEEN
FORGOTTEN.
UNDERSTAND THIS IS NOT PERFECT
--
WHATSOEVER WHEAT YOU WANNA AND
MANY WILL JUST I WOULD SAY I
WOULD.
AGREE WITH THE CHAIR PERSON ON
ON THAT POINT AND I WOULD SAY
THAT THE LEGISLATURE IN THE
BROWN ADMINISTRATION HAVE
ADDRESS THAT THROUGH SENATE
BILL.
EIGHTY EIGHT WHICH ADDRESSES
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES IN
CAVES GAVE THE EXTRAORDINARY
AUTHORITY AND POWERS THE STATE
WATER RESOURCES CONTROL BOARD TO
COMPEL.
THE CONSOLIDATION OF WATER
DISTRICTS IN IN THOSE
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES SO IF
THAT IS THE DESIRE OF THE CHAIR
AND THE AUTHOR --
IF IT'S HEALTHCARE DISTRICTS OR
IF IT'S DISADVANTAGED
COMMUNITIES THAT I WOULD SUGGEST
CONSIDERATION OF OF ELIMINATING
WATER DISTRICTS IN AND FROM THE
BILL.
BECAUSE IT IS IN EFFECT SETTING
UP A PARALLEL IF NOT CONFLICTING
PROCESS THAN THAT WHICH THE
LEGISLATURE AND THE GOVERNOR
OF-ALREADY SET FORTH IN SB.
EIGHTY EIGHT UNDER SENATE'S
RECOVER MAKE THEIR MEAL I KNOW I
HAVE A LITTLE BIT A DIVERSE
OPINION ON THAT I THINK THEIR
COMMUNITIES THAT COULD BENEFIT
FROM THIS THAT SAID.
WELL PLEASE CONTINUE CHIMING
WOULD LIKE TO BE TO GO TO CENTER
THANK YOU AND I THINK SENATOR
PELL SORT OF HITTING WHERE I
WANNA GO I I AM NOT FAMILIAR
WITH THE STRATEGIC GROWTH
COUNCIL.
IS IT FUNDED BY.
THE GENERAL FUND [inaudible]
PORTION [inaudible]
SO.
COULD YOU TELL ME WHO THE
STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNSELLORS
PLEASE YES ACTUALLY --
THIS STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNSEL
WAS A IS AN ENTITY THAT WAS
CREATED --
BOB AND I I WANNA SAY SP --
THREE SEVENTY FIVE AND TWO
SEVENTY TWO THEY BOTH OF THEM
HAD TO DO WITH CREATING THEIR
MISSION.
AND THEN THERE.
WELL ANYWAY THREE SEVENTY FIVE
AT LEAST FOR SURE IT'S A
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES AND
BASICALLY IT WAS THE MONEY THAT
WENT IN. TO TO TO PLANNING
CREATING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR A
REGION'S TO PLAN REGIONALLY.
AND THEY DIDTHE GRANT
APPLICATIONS --
AND IT OVER THE YEARS THEY'VE
BEEN GIVEN MORE RESPONSIBILITY
SO I I REALLY THINK THAT THE
ISSUE THAT SENATOR BELLE RAISED
HIS HIS.
IS APROPOS THAT WOULD BE GOOD TO
TAKE A LOOK AT WHAT THEY DO.
AND WHAT RESPONSIBILITIES HAVE
BEEN GIVEN TO THEM OVER A PERIOD
OF YEARS AND TO SEE WHETHER
THERE.
THERE'S THERE'S CHANGE THAT
NEEDS TO HAPPEN BUT THEY THEY
GENERALLY DO GRANT.
THEY THERE'D THAT GRANTS OF
MONEY.
AND THEY'RE FUNDED MOSTLY BY THE
GENERAL FUND I DO BELIEVE.
A AND IT IT --
A TOP CAP INTRUSION.
IT AND THEY DO GET CAP AND TRADE
DOLLAR SO THAT SOME OF THAT.
IS THAT CAP AND TRADE DOLLARS
THAT THEY GET AS WELL.
AND AND IT THE CONFIGURATION OF
THE BOARD IS CHANGED OVER TIME
BUT IT USED TO BE ALL CABINET
SICK SECRETARIES WITH ONE PUBLIC
MEMBER.
REMEMBER S. B..
THREE SEVENTY FIVE YES ABOUT
WIPED OUT KLF GO S..
YES IT DID.
TIMES GOT A CURIOUS SOME.
WHY IS FUNDING FROM THE
STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNCIL MORE
SPECIAL?
IT AND ANYBODY ELSE THAT YOU
HAVE TO CHANGE THE THRESHOLD
WHAT WHAT MAKES WHAT IS THE DEAL
THE THE THAT.
THE STRATEGIC GROWTH COUNCIL WAS
SEEN AS AN ENTITY THAT HAS DONE
--
THAT HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN --
LOOKING AT PLAN AND LOOKING AT
EXPENDING RESOURCES FOR PLANNING
AND SO IT MADE SENSE.
BEYOND ANY OTHER --
DEPARTMENT IN THIS IN THE STATE
QUITE FRANKLY.
BUT NO ONE ELSE REALLY TOUCHES
ON ON THE KIND OF WORK THAT
LASKO DOES --
OTHER THAN THE STRATEGIC GROWTH
COUNCIL THEY'LL BE FAMILIAR WITH
ALL THE LAST GOES AND SECOND IS
SOME OF THE CHALLENGES THAT THEY
FACE SO IT WAS PLACED THERE AS
OPPOSED TO ANY ANY OTHER PLACE.
BEING KIND OF SENSITIVE.
BECAUSE I HAVE HISTORY AS AN
EIGHT YEAR MEMBER OF THE ORANGE
COUNTY LAUGH CHO --
THIS SEEMS LIKE A REGIONAL.
POWER GRAB STILL SEEMS ONEROUS
TO ME IT SEEMS.
LIKE ANOTHER OVER REACH SAID
SOMEONE ABOVE EVERYBODY IS GONNA
DO SOMETHING AND IF WE WERE TO
DARE PROTEST AND YOU BETTER GO
FROM 10% 225%.
THAT TIME PERCEIVING IT SO WHAT
AM I MISSING MISS MILLER I AND
SO IT IF I MAY.
UM.
FARM MEMBERS HAVE SAID IN NO
UNCERTAIN TERMS THERE ARE.
SEVERAL VERY SIGNIFICANT
DETERRENCE FROM THEM INITIATING
ACTION.
AND BEFORE THIS COMMITTEE YOU
HAD A NUMBER OF BILLS THAT HAVE
HAVE.
BEEN HEARD THAT --
THE OUR INDICATIONS OF OR
ACCUSATIONS THE YOU KNOW THAT
LAUGH BECAUSE ARE NOT OUT DOING
WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE
DOING -- SO.
THE DETERRENCE THE MAJOR
DETERRENTS FOR LAUGH BECAUSE
ACTUALLY INITIATING ACTION ARE
NUMBER ONE A LACK OF FUNDING.
BECAUSE AS YOU AS YOU'RE WELL
AWARE SENATOR.
OUT LAUGH BECAUSE BUDGETS ARE
VERY LIMITED THEIR LOCALLY
FUNDED.
AND IF SO LAUGH CHO INITIATES
ACTION THERE'S NO APPLICANT PER
SE.
AND SO IF THERE'S NO APPLICANT
TO PAY ALL OF THE APPLICANT FEES
TO GO THROUGH WHATEVER THE
PROCESS IS.
FROM THE LEFT CO ABSORBS ALL OF
THOSE COSTS.
AND SO WHAT THAT MEANS IS THAT
FROM OTHER THINGS THAT WERE IN
THERE BUDGET NEED TO BE SET
ASIDE PRIORITIES NEED TO BE
CHANGED IN OURS TO DEAL WITH.
OUT WHATEVER ACTION THEY CHOOSE
TO INITIATE.
THE OTHER SIGNIFICANT DETERRENT
AND ABOUT 27% OVER 27% OF MY
MEMBERS SAID THIS WAS.
THIS AND FUNDING RESEARCH
SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH DETERRENCE.
BUT THEY WOULDN'T EVEN INITIATE
ACTION.
THAT THAT THE PROTEST THRESHOLD
OF 10%.
IT IS LOW.
AND UMPIRE I RESPECTFULLY WILL
I'M RESPOND TO MR REEVE'S
COMMENT THAT --
BACK IN NINETEEN NINETY THREE
ASSEMBLY MEMBER GOTCHRAN A BILL
THAT ACTUALLY GAVE LAUGH CHO THE
AUTHORITY TO INITIATE ACTION
PART IN.
NINETEEN NINETY THREE THEY DID
NOT HAVE THAT.
THE INITIAL BILLS STARTED OUT AT
25% TO MERE EXISTING STATUTE.
AND THROUGH THE COURSE OF THE
LEGISLATIVE PROCESS.
AS BEAUTIFUL AS SERIOUS OF THAT
NUMBER --
MAGICALLY TURNED INTO 10% SO BAD
10% IS IN FACT AN ARBITRARY
NUMBER [inaudible]
SO.
WE'RE SIMPLY ASKING FOR THE
PURPOSES OF THIS --
THIS PROGRAM FOR THIS LIMITED
AMOUNT OF TIME TO MERE EXISTING
STATUTE.
WHEN YOU'RE WHAT WIN ENOUGH
MEMBERS SAY THAT I HAVE THIS
MANY [inaudible]
THE DETERMINATIONS.
AT AND THIS MANY POTENTIAL
REORGANIZATIONS BUT THE
THRESHOLD IS SO LOW THAT WE KNOW
IT'S NOT GOING TO GO ANYWHERE WE
ARE NOT GOING TO EXPAND THE
RESOURCES TO DO IT.
IT DOESN'T GET ADDRESSED.
SO THEN I NOTICED THAT ORANGE
COUNTY IS NOT.
ON THE LIST OF ENDORSERS OF THE
LAUGHTER THOSE.
AND WE DON'T REALLY HAVE A
FINANCIAL ISSUE IN FACT WE HAD.
ACTUALLY HAD TOO MUCH MONEY WE
HAD TO KIND OF YOU KNOW
ALLOCATED DOWN OVER MARITIME BY
KEEPING DUES.
LEVEL WHICH WORKED OUT OKAY
DURING THE RECESSION BUT I'M SO.
WOULD YOU.
I JUST LAUGHED CHO HAVE THE
ABILITY AND IN REGARDS TO
CONSOLIDATIONS TO CONSOLIDATE OR
MERGE COUNTIES [inaudible]
NO.
I DID ASK YOU GUYS [inaudible]
BUT I'VE GOT I'VE GOT YOUR
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT A FUNDING
ISSUE THAT WE'VE GOT.
WE GOT COUNTIES WOULD TWELVE
HUNDRED PEOPLE NAY THAT'S SUNSET
BEACH IN MY DISTRICT IMAGES THE
LITTLE.
YOU KNOW HALF MILE.
CLIP PROPERTY SO.
YOU NOTE THAT IF IT'S IF IT'S A
FINANCIAL ISSUE WHAT HOW WOULD
YOU.
WHO YOU INSTIGATE?
MERGING COUNTIES WITH THAT HAVE
TO BE DONE LEGISLATIVE BILL THAT
THAT IS WE HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO
JURISDICTION OVER ANYTHING LIKE
THAT THANKFULLY.
FARM PRIME I'M JUST SAYING YOU
KNOW THE GOLD COUNTRY IS
WONDERFUL.
IT WAS BUSY UNPOPULATED AT ONE
MOMENT IN TIME.
AND NOW YOU'VE GOT ALL THE SMALL
COUNTIES.
I CALLED MODOC A FEW YEARS AGO
AND AND THE OF THE LADY THAT
ACTUALLY THE PHONE SAID WHAT VIA
VIA AUDITOR'S NOT AVAILABLE.
MARCHING GIVE ME AN OPPONENT
WERE BUT MAKE IT A TOLL FREE
NUMBER BECAUSE WE CAN'T MAKE ONE
BUSINESS PHONE CALLS OUT OF
MODOC COUNTY AND THAT'S WERE
THAT.
GOOD THAT THE ISSUE IS SO OKAY
I'LL I'LL STOP THERE I I
APPRECIATE YOUR RESPONSE I THINK
MR REVIEW WANTED.
TO WELL UP AND I WOULD JUST SAY
WITH RESPECT TO THE BUDGET
ISSUE.
THE AS THE CONSULTANT PROPERLY
POINTS OUT IN IN THE COMMITTEE
ANALYSIS LAUGH CHO ITSELF
DETERMINES ITS BUDGET.
THIS IS ANOTHER ISSUE THAT WAS
HOT -- VERY
RALLY DISCUSSED AND DEBATED BACK
IN.
TWO THOUSAND AND THAT WAS A
PROBLEM THAT THE COMMISSION'S
IDENTIFIED THAT WE HAVE TO GO
HADN'T HAND TO THE COUNTY.
AT THE TIME THE COUNTIES PROVIDE
ALL THE FUNDING.
BUT THEY HAD TO GO HADN'T HAND
OF THE SPECIAL DISTRICTS IF THEY
ARE ON LAP GOES OR THE CITIES
AND AND ESSENTIALLY BEG FOR
MONEY.
SO WHAT WE DATA CORTESE NOT
HERTZBERG AS WE GAVE THE
COMMISSION THE AUTHORITY TO
ADOPT TO PREPARE AN ADOPTED ITS
BUDGET.
THEY HAVE TO PROVIDE REVIEW AND
COMMENT BY THE LOCAL AGENCIES IN
THE COUNTY BUT THEY HAVE THE
ABILITY.
TO PREPARE TO ADOPT THAT BUDGET.
AND PORTION THE COST THE LOCAL
AGENCIES AT THE LOCAL EIGHT
SEASON DON'T PAY AT THE COUNTY
AUDITOR CAPTURES PROPERTY TAX
FROM THOSE LOCAL AGENCIES AND OR
TO GET THE FUNDING SO.
AYE AYE AYE FLATLY REJECTED THE
BUDGET EXCUSE AS AS BEING A
LEGITIMATE RESPONSE OF NOT BEING
ABLE TO PURSUE THESE
CONSOLIDATION ACTIONS BUT
THEY'RE SAYING WHAT THEY'RE
LIMITED BUDGET.
THAT ANYONE IS START A PROJECT
IF YOU CAN.
YOU HAVE A 10% THRESHOLD THEY
CAN USE SO SO DID ADOPTING ITS
LEGITIMATE ARGUMENT KNOWN
BECAUSE THEY CAN INITIATE THEY
CAN UNDERTAKE THE ACTION.
BY DOING THE STUDIES AND THEY
DON'T HAVE TO GO ANY FARTHER
THAN THAT BUT THE PART OF THE
THING THAT THAT WE'RE MISSING
HERE IS THAT.
THEY HAVE THE ABILITY THROUGH
THESE MUNICIPAL SERVICE REVIEWS
TO ENGAGE THE WATER DISTRICTS
LET'S SAY OR THE CITY IS OR
WHOMEVER IN A COLLABORATIVE
EFFORT TO IDENTIFY WHAT WOULD BE
A BETTER MODEL FOR PROVIDING
SERVICES.
THIS ALLOWS THEM TO COMPLETELY
ESCAPE OUT AND JUST.
GO T YOU KNOW THE GET OUT OF
JAIL FREE GO DIRECTLY TO GO AND
COLLECT THE TWO HUNDRED DOLLARS
AND AND WE REALLY.
TAKE OFFENSE TO THAT.
CAN ANYONE AWAY IN ON THIS.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN --
TO THE EXTENT THAT --
BLOOM COUNTY LAUGHED DOES FIND
TAKING ACTION --
UNDABLE SIMPLY BECAUSE A FEAR
OF A A COMMUNITY A WARNING
DETERMINATION OF THIS CONCEPT OF
DETERRENCE --
AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT A IS IS NOT
BY SWITCHING THE CONCERNS OF OF
MY MEMBERSHIP --
I I SAID I I WOULD ASK YOU KNOW
IS IT A BUG OR A FEATURE ISN'T
THAT WHY THIS WAS NEGOTIATED
BEHIND THAT'S PROBABLY WHY THIS
MEASURE CONTRADICTS THE
RECOMMENDATION OF THE LITTLE
HOOVER COMMISSION WHICH
SUGGESTED THAT.
IF THERE IS A QUESTION ABOUT THE
PROTEST THRESHOLDS PERHAPS WE
THE LEGISLATURE SHOULD CONVENE
AN ADVISORY.
COMMITTEE AND STUDY THE ISSUE.
AND SEVEN DOING A ONE OFF HERE
AND THERE DETERRENCE THE IS NOT
EVIDENCE.
THAT CERTAIN PARTS OF FEELING
[inaudible]
AND THAT'S I'M NOT EVEN SURE
THAT THAT'S A GOOD OR BAD THING
I'LL LEAVE THAT TO YOU.
GIVE AN EXAMPLE [inaudible]
OF SOMEONE WHO WAS ABLE TO DO
THE PROTEST BUT JUST 10% IN.
YOU KNOW WE'VE FAR BEEN
UNSUCCESSFUL GETTING THAT
EVIDENCE.
FROM THE PROPONENTS THAT SAID
THAT THIS IS SUCH A BIG
DETERRENT.
SO -- WHERE
EAGER TO FIND THAT OUT?
IT'S INCREDIBLY CHALLENGING FOR
A LAY PERSON.
TO FIND 10%.
OF THE VOTERS IN THEIR
COMMUNITY.
AWE ON THIS TIME TABLE.
BUT IT'S AGAIN IS THIS A BUG OR
A FEATURE.

STUDIES AND LEFT GOES OF ORPHAN

I THINK EVERYTHING'S DELIVERED
SO IF YOU DO A BILL LIKE THAT AT
LEAST SOME BILLION OR FOR THAT
TIME IT WAS DONE ON PURPOSE IN
ALL.

[inaudible]
A WEAKNESS --
AND I REMEMBER HOW IT WAS WHEN I
WAS OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT FOR
TWENTY SIX YEARS IT WAS SO.
WE WE ACTUALLY ADDED RESOURCES
TO MAKE ARE STRONGER
[inaudible]
BUT IT SEEMS LIKE THEY'RE THIS
ROLE OF EFFICIENCY WORKIN ON
CONSOLIDATIONS.

I GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE MY NAME
IS AARON CASEY I WORK WITH
PLACERVILLE COUNTY I'M ALSO A
RESIDENT OF NORTH LAKE TAHOE.
I'D LIKE TO FIRST START BY
THINKING ASSEMBLY MEMBER THURMAN
FOR HIS INCLUSION OF LANGUAGE
AROUND THE NORTH LAKE TAHOE
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITIES.
AS WELL AS THE CITY OF BERKELEY
WE DO PRE THE NORTH LIKE HOW
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY WAS
CREATED IN THE MID NINETIES TO
COMBINE TO TRANSPORTATION
DISTRICTS.
WITHIN THE LAKE TAHOE BASIN AND
ADJACENT AREAS IN NORTH LAKE
TAHOE.
IT WAS TO ALLOW FOR THE SALES
TAX INITIATIVE THAT WOULD
SUPPORT TRANSPORTATION SERVICE
IN THIS AREA WHICH IS A NEW
UNIQUE AREA IMPOSTER COUNTY IN
FAT.
NOW IT IS A DESTINATION
COMMUNITY WE HAVE A FAIR AMOUNT
OF TOURISM IN THAT AREA AND HAVE
SUCH TRANSPORTATION DEMANDS ARE
DIFFERENT AND SO THEREFORE THE
THE AUTHORITY WAS CREATED FOR
THAT PURPOSE.
WE'RE LOOKING TO REVISE THE
LANGUAGE IN ORDER TO ALLOW
ADDITIONAL FLEXIBILITY TO EXPAND
THE DEFINITION OF TRANSPORTATION
TO INCLUDE IT MULTI MODAL FORMS
OF TRANSIT SUCH AS TRAILS.
POSTURE COUNTY HAS ACTIVELY BEEN
WORKING WITH MANY COMMUNITY
GROUPS TO EXPAND OUR TRAIL
NETWORK TO INCLUDE CONNECTIVITY
BETWEEN THE NORTH LAKE TAHOE
AREA WITHIN THE BASIN ALL THE
WAY INTO TRUCKEE.
AS WELL AS EXPANDING ACTIVELY
EXPANDING OUR TRANSPORTATION
SERVICE INCREASING HEADWAYS
EXPANDING AREAS WHERE THE BUSES
GO INCLUDING ADDITIONAL SHUTTLES
AT CETERA.
THE REVISED LANGUAGE WOULD ALLOW
FOR US TO CONTINUE TO MOVE DOWN
THAT PATH TO EXPAND THAT TRANSIT
SERVICE. TO ADDRESS COMMUNITY
NEEDS AS WELL AS THE DEMANDS ON
INFRASTRUCTURE PLACE BY THE
COMMUNITY UP THROUGH VISITATION.
WE ALSO HAVE SUPPORT FROM THE
BUSINESS COMMUNITY AS WELL
SEVERAL SPECIAL DISTRICTS THAT
ARE ENGAGED WITH US ON A REGULAR
BASIS THERE ACTUALLY
IMPLEMENTERS AND WAR FUNDERS.
UP TRANSPORTATION AND TRAILS IN
OUR COMMUNITY THEY EITHER BUILD
THEM THEY MAINTAIN THEM OR THEY
FIND EXPANDED TRANSIT SERVICE
AND PARTICIPATE IN SEVERAL
COMMITTEES AND COMMUNITY GROUPS
AS WELL.
THANK YOU.
WITHOUT I JUST WANNA I WILL GO
AHEAD AND CONCLUDE MY REMARKS
AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOR
TIME AND APPRECIATE IT THINK
YOU'RE GRATEFUL YOU'RE HERE
TODAY.
VERY MUCH APPRECIATE WOULD
LIKELY TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYONE
ELSE IN SUPPORT OF THE COMPLETE
COMPORTED THIS TIME.
LAST CALL FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN
SUPPORT.
YOU KNOW THAT BECAUSE HE DOES
ANYONE WHO MAY BE OPPOSED TO
PLEASE COME FORWARD LOOKING FOR
THOSE WHO OPPOSE.
LAST CALL.
THAT'S BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE FOR ANY DISCUSSION ON
AB.
TWENTY NINE TWENTY LEAVING THE
DISCUSSION PLEASE CONSUMER LOCK
[inaudible]
HER WHY.
BY WHY NOT YEAH DID THE
DIFFICULT THE FLUSTERED NO
BETTER NO WORSE WHEN WHEN WE
JUST CHANGE IT FOR EVERYBODY. TO
TO DO THIS SO WE DON'T HAVE TO
DO PALM SPRINGS ONE YEAR IN.
TAHOE THE NEXT WHY DO WE JUST.
I GOT MORE.
I DON'T I SPEAK FOR THE SUMMER
WILL LOOK TO HIM TO BE ABLE TO
HAVE THAT CONVERSATION BUT WE'RE
GOING TO BE SEEN A A BILL HERE
LATER TODAY BY ASSEMBLY WERE
FLORA WHO.
WE'VE SEEN NUMEROUS APPROACHES
FIND --
CREATION OF PARKS IS.
WE ASK HIM TO BE ABLE TO EXPAND
THAT --
THROUGHOUT STATE NO I THINK
WE'VE SEEN SEVEN OR EIGHT COME
INDIVIDUALLY --
YOU AND THAT COULD BE TRICKY
PARTICULARLY IF ITS IN THE
BEGINNING OF THE IMPOSING ITEMS
THAT TIME COUNTIES ARE SOME
JURISDICTIONS CITIES MAY NOT.
ONE HAS SO THAT'S WHY WERE SEEN
IS HERE TODAY BECAUSE THERE'S
INTEREST.
AND IN THE RECEIVE I'M ACCURATE
IN.
A THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR --
ME AND SENATOR THANK YOU I'D BE
HAPPY TO X. --
TO AMEND THE BILL TO INCLUDE ANY
AREAS IN YOUR DISTRICT SHOULD
YOU LIKE --
NAM WE HAVE BEEN CONTACTED BY
JURISDICTIONS THAT HAVE
EXPRESSED EXPLICITLY THAT NEED
TO HAVE --
THE CHANCE TO HAVE THEIR VOTERS
CONSIDER ADDITIONAL REVENUE TO
MEET THESE LOCAL PURPOSES --
A AS THE CHAIR HAS LAID OUT IT
MAY NOT BE THE CASE THAT A BILL
THAT MIKE UTLEY COVERS THE
ENTIRE STATE.
DUMP MEETS THE WISHES OF ALL --
JURISDICTIONS --
BUT WE WILL BE HAPPY TO WORK
WITH A JURISDICTION THAT HAVE
INTEREST IN THIS EVERYTHING ASK
MISTER JURORS THAT YOU PLEASE.
HER HELLO.
BUT WHERE IS IT THAT WE'RE
SEEING SO MANY COME HERE TO SAY
OKAY.
WE NEED TO INCREASE OR SALES
TAX RIGHT BUT RIGHT NOW WE HAVE
AUTHORITY TO DO IT SO.
SO MUCH BUT NOW WE NEED
LEGISLATIVE AUTHORITY TO GO
ABOVE THAT.
AND I'M JUST.
CURIOUSLY IT'S GOOD WHY WHY DOES
EVERYBODY HAVE TO COME IN.
AND DO THAT I GUESS THE SECOND
QUESTION WOULD BE.
THIS MONEY IS FUNGIBLE HERE'S
THERE SEEMS TO BE A REAL.
CYNICISM THAT ANY NEW TAX
INCREASE WILL BE GOING JUST A
PENSION PLAN CONTRIBUTIONS.
IT'S OUT OF WE HOW DO WE CALM
PEOPLE DOWN ON ON THAT IDEA OR
IS IT IS ILLEGITIMATE.
WELL IT IN THE CASE OF THANK YOU
THROUGH THE CHAIR IN THE CASE OF
THESE MEASURES OF AGAIN THAT
REQUIRE LOCAL APPROVAL.
AND THAT --
THOSE MEASURES WOULD BE
EXPRESSLY ARTICULATED THE
PURPOSE FOR THESE DOLLARS IN THE
CASE OF THE CITY OF BERKELEY.
EDGE TO ADDRESS THE NEEDS OF
HOMELESSNESS AND IN THE CASE OF
THE NORTH LAKE TAHOE AREA
TRANSPORTATION SERVICES AND SO
--
YOU KNOW IN ORDER TO GET THE AND
HOW WILL BE USE SO I I THINK
THAT LIMITS ANY OPPORTUNITY TO
FUND SOME OF THE PURPOSE.
AND I THINK YOU'RE YOUR EARLIER
POINT IS A GOOD ONE I THINK ON
THAT DAY SEEN HOW MANY
JURISDICTIONS ARE COMING FORWARD
--
TO ASK FOR A WAIVER SUGGESTS
THAT THE STATE MIGHT WANT TO
CONSIDER PROVIDING A YOU KNOW --
ADDITIONAL AUTHORITY IN THE
EVENT THAT A JURISDICTION WANTS
TO TAKE A WAIVER BUT I WOULD
HOPE THAT THAT THAT.
THAT BECAUSE THIS BILL IS NOT A
STATEWIDE WOULD NOT TO CAUSE
ANYONE TO VOTE AGAINST IT I
THINK WHY PUNISH THE COMMUNITIES
THAT HAVE.
DECIDED THAT THEY NEED TO MOVE
FORWARD --
WHILE WE CONTINUE OUR EFFORTS TO
WORK ON STATEWIDE EFFORTS AND
I'D BE HAPPY TO WORK WITH YOU
AND OTHERS WHO WERE INTERESTED
IN HOW WE HELP ALL JURISDICTIONS
IN THE STATE.
THERE'S A LOT OF HIS FELLOW IS
TO STAY THERE STRUGGLING THEY
WERE LEFT TO RAISE TAXES SO I'M.
TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW WE GET
OUT OF A FINANCIAL SQUEEZE
ESPECIALLY THE PENSION
AND RETIREE MEDICAL ISSUE SO.
I WILL.
CONTINUE TO DEBATE.
PONDER AND SEE WHAT WE CAN DO
THANK YOU I I COME FROM A LOCAL
--
CITY COUNCIL THAT HAD MILLION
DOLLAR DEFICIT.
AND YOU CAN IMAGINE CON HARDSHIP
THAT CREATED FOR OUR CITIZENS
AND OUR THE IMPACT THAT HAD ON

WAY I THINK THAT WE SHOULD DO
WHAT WE CAN HELP OUR LOCAL.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH OF A MISS
CHAIR AND A SENATORS.
ADB NINETEEN NINETY NINE WOULD
EXPAND THE AUTHORITY OF LOCAL
OUR COMMUNITIES TO DEVELOP
PUBLIC BROADBAND SERVICES WHILE
PRESERVING NET NEUTRALITY TO
ENSURE.
THE INTERNET REMAINS OPEN AND
ACCESSIBLE TO ALL CALIFORNIANS
BROADBAND ACCESS IS OF VITAL
IMPORTANCE TO THE ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT OF COMMUNITIES
THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
AND THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE AN
IMPORTANT PARTNER IN ENSURING
THAT THE BENEFITS ARE MADE
AVAILABLE TO EVERYONE.
OKAY CALIFORNIA LAW CURRENTLY
AUTHORIZES MUNICIPAL UTILITY
DISTRICTS AND PUBLIC UTILITY
DISTRICTS. TO OPERATE THEIR OWN
BROADBAND NETWORKS BUT OTHER
FORMS OF INDEPENDENT LOCAL
GOVERNMENT.
HAVE LIMITED AUTHORITY TO DO SO
FOR EXAMPLE COMMUNITY SERVICE
DISTRICTS CAN INITIALLY PROVIDE
THE SERVICE.
BUT HAVE TO SEED OVER THE
AUTHORITY ONCE A PRIVATE ENTITY
IS WILLING TO DEPLOY THIS
SERVICE.
RESTRICTING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
FROM BUILDING OUT THEIR OWN HIGH
SPEED NETWORKS IS A
COUNTERPRODUCTIVE TO CLOSING
CALIFORNIA'S DIGITAL DIVIDE.
ESPECIALLY IN RURAL AREAS TO
ONLY 43% OF THE POPULATION HAS
ACCESS TO BROADBAND IN THEIR
HOUSE COATS OR IN OTHER AREAS
WHERE.
THERE'S ONLY ONE ACT ACCESS TO
ONE PROVIDER.
THE IDEA THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
OUGHT TO PLAY A MORE ACTIVE ROLE
IN BUILDING OUT LOCAL.
NOT ALONE BROADBAND NETWORKS HAS
ALSO BEEN RE KINDLED BY THE FACT
THAT THE FCC THE FEDERAL OF
COMMUNICATIONS.
COMMISSION THREESOME ACTION TO
REPEAL NET NEUTRALITY RUSE.
THE FORMER NET NEUTRALITY RUSE
REQUIRE INTERNET SERVICE
PROVIDERS TO ESSENTIALLY OFFER
EQUAL ACCESS TO ALL WEB CONTENT
WITHOUT CHARGING CONSUMERS FOR
HIGHER QUALITY DELIVERY OR
GIVING PREFERENTIAL TREATMENT TO
CERTAIN WEBSITES.
ACCORDING TO A RECENT SURVEY
CONDUCTED BY THE UNIVERSITY OF
MARYLAND MORE THAN 80% OF VOTERS
OPPOSED THE F. C. C.'S PLAN TO
REPEAL ITS NET NEUTRALITY RUSE.
S. LOCALLY OWNED BROADBAND
NETWORKS BECOME AN ALTERNATIVE
AN ALTERNATIVE FOR CONSUMERS IT
SHOULD BE THE STATE'S POLICY TO
UPHOLD THE TENANTS OF OPEN
INTERNET BY REQUIRING ADHERENCE.
TO THE CORE PRINCIPLES OF NET
NEUTRALITY THIS BILL AB NINETEEN
NINETY NINE WOULD A FIRM
CALIFORNIA'S COMMITMENT TO
PROTECTING CONSUMERS AND
COMPETITION SINCE THE REPEAL OF
THE NET NEUTRALITY RUSE WHILE
AUTHORIZING THE EXPANSION OF
PUBLIC.
BROADBAND SERVICE ON WITH THAT
THE I'D LIKE TO ASK FOR YOUR
IDOL AND I BELIEVE.
I HAVE A WITNESS WHO BY.
THOUGHT I HAD A WITNESS BUT

MISTER CHAIRMAN SENATORS.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT
EXTENDS PROTECTIONS TO VOTERS
AND TAXPAYERS BY ENSURING THAT
ANY CONSOLIDATION OF THE OFFICES
OF AUDITOR CONTROLLER.
OR TREASURER TAX COLLECTOR MUST
BE FIRST APPROVED BY THE VOTERS.
ADDITIONALLY THE VOTERS MUST BE
ASKED THE QUESTION OF WHETHER
THIS CONSOLIDATED POSITION WILL
BE APPOINTED.
OR ELECTED AS CHAIR AS I MENTION
I'LL BE ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEE
PROPOSED RECOMMENDATION TO
ENSURE THIS BILL DOES NOT
INTERFERE WITH THE ABILITIES OF
THE BOARDS OF THE FIVE COUNTIES
GRANTED AUTHORITY.
IN EXISTING LAW BY STRIKING THE
REFERENCE IN SECTION.
THREE THIS BILL WILL SIMPLY
PROVIDE CONSISTENCY THE VOTERS
ACROSS REMAINING CALIFORNIA
COUNTIES.
AS THE AUDITOR CONTROLLER AND
TREASURER TAX COLLECTOR OPERATE
TO CHECK AND BALANCES IN
COLLECTING DISBURSING TAXPAYER
DOLLARS THESE OFFICES ARE
INDISPENSABLE.
WITH FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
PREVIOUS PREVIOUS EXAMPLES OF
CONSOLIDATION HAVE EXPLICITLY
EXPLICITLY PRECLUDED VOTERS FROM
BEING ASKED TO MAINTAIN THE
OFFICE AS AN ELECTED OFFICIAL
THIS BILL WOULD ADD THAT
CLARITY.
MEMBERS.
COUNTY RESIDENTS AND VOTERS
DESERVE TRANSPARENCY THIS BILL
WILL HELP ENSURE THAT THE MONEY
TAXPAYERS PUT IN THE HANDS O
LOCAL GOVERNMENT AND MANAGE THE
HIGH STANDARDS INTEGRITY
PROFESSIONALISM.
AND IMPARTIALITY WITH THAT I
ASKED FOR A AYE VOTE IN WITH ME
TO TESTIFY IS THE ORANGE COUNTY
AUDITOR CONTROLLER THE ELECTED
ERIC WILL.
THROUGH WE WELCOME YOU BACK SIR
THANK YOU FOR HANGING WITH US
IT'S ALWAYS GOOD TO SEE YOU SIR
YOU HAVE BY TWO MINUTES AND
THEN.
TURNED OVER.
THANK YOU --
MISTER CHAIR MADAM VICE CHAIR
FOR ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK AGAIN
--
MY NAME IS ERIC WOOLERY ALONG SO
ASSOCIATION HAVE COUNTY
TREASURERS AND TAX COLLECTORS I
AM A CO SPONSOR OF AB.
TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT AND AS
THE INDEPENDENTLY ELECTED
AUDITOR CONTROLLER OF ORANGE
COUNTY.
AUDITOR CONTROLLERS ARE
RESPONSIBLE FOR EVALUATING ALL
CLAIMS AND CHARGES SUBMITTED TO
THE COUNTY AND FOR ISSUING ALL
COUNTY PAYMENTS.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY A CLOSE IS
A UNIQUE A LOOPHOLE THAT ONLY
APPLIES TO CONSOLIDATING THE
APPOINTED DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
THE ELECTED AUDITOR CONTROLLER
AND THE ELECTED TREASURER TAX
COLLECTOR.
IN ALL SEVEN INSTANCES IN THE
LAST THIRTY YEARS.
WHERE THESE TYPES OF
CONSOLIDATIONS WHERE APPROVED
THE VOTERS WERE NOT GIVEN THE
CHOICE AS TO WHETHER THAT THE
CONSOLIDATED OFFICE SHOULD BE
ELECTED OR APPOINTED?
THERE IS NO OTHER COUNTY OFFICE
IN WHICH EXISTING LAW ALLOWS AN
APPOINTED OFFICE TO BE COMBINED
WITH AN ELECTED OFFICE WITHOUT
REQUIRING THE VOTERS TO DECIDE
WHETHER THE OFFICES ELECTED OR
APPOINTED. FOR EXAMPLE THE
COUNTY CLERK CANNOT BE
CONSOLIDATED WITH AN APPOINTED
OFFICE UNLESS THE CONSOLIDATED
OFFICE REMAINS ELECTED OR THE
PEOPLE HAVE A SEPARATE VOTE TO
MAKE THE COUNTY CLERK APPOINTED.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT DOES
NOT ALTER EXISTING LAW REGARDING
THE ABILITY OF THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS TO CONSOLIDATE
ELECTED OFFICES WITH OTHER
ELECTED OFFICES.
THIS SIMPLY REQUIRES THAT THE
BOARD THAT IF THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS WISHES TO
CONSOLIDATED ELECTED OFFICES
WITH AN APPOINTED OFFICE AB
DIRECTOR OF FINANCE.
THEN THE VOTERS MUST BE ABLE TO
DECIDE WHETHER THE CONSOLIDATED
OFFICE IS ELECTED OR APPOINTED.
LAW ALREADY REQUIRES THAT
SWITCHING AN AUDITOR CONTROLLER
FROM ELECTED TO AN APPOINTED
REQUIRES A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE.
AND IT HAS THE EXACT SAME
REQUIREMENT FOR THE TREASURER
TAX COLLECTOR.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT EGG
FIXES THE DIRECTOR OF FINANCE
CONSOLIDATION LEUPOLD THAT
ALLOWS AN END RUN AROUND THIS
REQUIREMENT.
EXISTING LAW REQUIRES THAT IF A
COUNTY WHICH IS TO HAVE A
CONTROLLER FUNCTION IT MUST BE
HELD BY THE AUDITOR.
HOWEVER THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
CAN'T ABOLISH THE CONTROLLER
FUNCTION BY A SIMPLE MAJORITY
VOTE.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT
INSURES THAT IF THE CONTROLLER
FUNCTION IS GOING TO BE
ABOLISHED FROM AN ELECTED
AUDITOR CONTROLLER.
IT SHOULD ONLY BE DONE BY A VOTE
OF THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTY NOT
SIMPLY BY A BITE THREE VOTES OF
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
IN ORDER TO PROTECT INDEPENDENCE
OF A COUNTY AUDITOR CONTROLLERS
I RESPECTFULLY ASK AN AYE VOTE
ON AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT I
THINK YOU CAN FOR TRAVELING UP
TODAY IT'S GOOD TO SEE SIR THANK
YOU VERY WORK.
WELCOME.
GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS KAREN LAYING ON BEHALF
OF THE CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF
COUNTY TREASURERS AND TAX
COLLECTORS.
OF THIS IS BEEN AN ITEM THAT
THEY WANTED TO PURSUE
LEGISLATION FOR SEVERAL YEARS
AND WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL THAT IS
THE NUMBER PRO.
I INTRODUCED IT.
IT AT LARGE REALLY THERE ARE TWO
MAIN FUNCTIONS THE TREASURES TAX
COLLECTORS DO THEY COLLECT THE
MONEY FOR ON THE ON THE TAX BILL
AND THE MANAGE COUNTY.
DOLLARS.
THOSE ARE BOTH FUNCTIONS THAT
SHOULD BE TRULY ACCOUNTABLE TO
THE VOTERS AYE THEY BELIEVE THAT
IF YOU'RE GOING TO CHANGE THE OF
THE STRUCTURE OF HOW THEIR
OFFICE WORKS --
THAT YOU SHOULD ASK VOTERS FIRST
WHETHER OR NOT THE VOTERS WANT
TO FORFEIT THEIR ABILITY TO CALL
THE TAX COLLECTOR DIRECTLY WHEN
THERE'S A DISCREPANCY ON THEIR
TAX BILLS.
OF KEEP IN MIND THAT I TREASURE
TECH SECTORS TO HAVE TO SELL.
PEOPLE'S HOMES AT A CERTAIN
POINT IF THEY DON'T PAY THEIR
TAXES THEY TAKE THEIR JOBS VERY
VERY SERIOUSLY AND THEY WANT TO
REMAIN ACCOUNTABLE. TO THE
VOTERS AND IF THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS WANTS TO CHANGE THAT
STRUCTURE THE ENCOURAGE THE AYE.
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS TO PUT
THAT QUESTION TO THE VOTERS AND
IN ADDITION AND PREPARING FOR
THE THE HEARING ON THIS BILL AYE
EARLIER IN THE YEAR.
WE TOOK A GOOD LOOK AT HIS OF
BEEN PROPOSED FOR CONSOLIDATION
HIS ELECTED WHO'S APPOINTED.
AND ONE ONE OTHER THING WE
WANTED TO POINT OUT BECAUSE I
THINK IT'S WORTHWHILE. TO NOTE
IS THAT --
OF DEAL FORTY FOUR AND UNLIKE
ANY OTHER TREND IN THE COUNTRY
THAT WE CAN FIND THAT THERE ARE
MORE ELECTED WOMEN TREASURE TAX
COLLECTORS AND THERE ARE MEN.
AND WE SWITCH OVER TO APPOINTED
THE OPPOSITE IS TRUE AND THE
LAST TWO CHARTER TECH SECTORS
THAT HAVE BEEN LOOKED AT FOR
CONSOLIDATION ARE BOTH.
BOTH WOMEN AND WE THINK THAT'S
WORTHWHILE TO NOTE BECAUSE IT'S
ON DIFFICULT I THINK FOR WOMEN
TO SOMETIMES RUN AND GET ELECTED
TO OFFICE THEY'RE DOING A GREAT
JOB.
IN THE TREASURER TAX COLLECTOR
WORLD WE'RE PROUD OF THAT
ATTRACTANTS WE WANTED TO
DESERVED TO THE COMMITTEE WHEN
YOU CONSIDER THIS LEGISLATION
SAYING ASK FOR I DON'T THINK
YOU.
CAME IN THANK YOU SO MUCH WE'D
LIKE TO BE TO SEE IF THERE'S
ANYONE ELSE IN SUPPORT OF IT
PLEASE SEE FOR SOME LASSEN
ORGANIZATION.
MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS MATTHEW
CYBERLINK BEHALF OF THE STATE
ASSOCIATION OF COUNTY AUDITOR'S
ALSO IN SUPPORT THANK YOU
EXPECTING THINGS TO BE WITH US
TODAY.
ANYONE ELSE'S SUPPORT IF YOU
COULD PLEASE ADVANCE AT THIS
TIME LAST CALL FOR SUPPORT.
WE NOW WOULD LIKE YOU TO SEE IF
THERE ARE FOLKS IN OPPOSITION IF
YOU TO PLEASE COME FORWARD
LOOKING FOR THOSE OPPOSITION.
THINKING OF GOING TO SPEAK IN
ROOM THANK YOU SO MUCH.
BUT IT'S SO WO IS GOING TO KICK
US OFF OUR PRIMARY ONE THREE TWO
THREE MINUTES ARE SECONDARY WILL
HAVE.
TO AYE IF YOU KNOW MINUS
INTRODUCING YOURSELF TO
ORGANIZATION.
MR COULD YOU CAN KICK SOME.
CONSUMERS HORSEWOMAN THANK YOU
SARAH MISTER CHAIRMAN AND
SENATORS AMY JENKINS ON BEHALF
OF THE ORANGE COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS.
IN RESPECTFUL OPPOSITION TO AB
TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT THIS
BILL UNDERMINES THE LOCAL
AUTHORITY GIVEN TO COUNTIES TO
DETERMINE THEIR LOCAL GOVERNMENT
STRUCTURE.
IN THIS CASE BY REMOVING THE
AUTHORITY TO DETERMINE WHETHER
CONSOLIDATING ELECTED OFFICES OF
THE AUDITOR CONTROLLER TREASURER
TAX COLLECTOR AND DIRECTOR OF
FINANCE AS A NECESSARY STEP TO
PROTECT BACK COUNTIES INTERESTS.
IT NOT ONLY UNDERMINES THE
AUTHORITY.
THROUGH CHOSEN BY THE VOTERS TO
MAKE SUCH DECISIONS IN THEIR
BEST INTERESTS.
IT UNNECESSARILY ADDS ANOTHER
COST OF TAXPAYER DOLLARS BY
REQUIRING ANOTHER LOCAL
ELECTION.
COUNTY BOARDS OF SUERVISORS ARE
AN EXTENSION OF STATE
GOVERNMENT.
AUTHORIZED BY THE STATE
CONSTITUTION WITH THE
RESPONSIBILITY OF RUNNING CUNTY
GOVERNMENTS SETTING COUNTY
PRIORITIES AND MAINTAINING A
BALANCED BUDGET.
YOU'RE THE PAIR OF THE LAST
RESORT FOR INDIGENT POPULATIONS
IN NEED OF A HEALTH CARE AND ARE
RESPONSIBLE FOR DELIVERING
PUBLIC SAFETY AND SOCIAL
SERVICES TO OUR RESIDENTS.
SIMILAR TO THE LEGISLATURE WHEN
OUR POWERS ARE LIMITED OUR JOBS
ARE MADE EXPONENTIALLY MORE
DIFFICULT.
MANAGEMENT OF LOCAL GOVERNMENT
BECOMES MORE EXPENSIVE AN
ONEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU
CONSIDER THAT ORANGE COUNTY
RECEIVES THE LOWEST AMOUNT OF
PROPERTY TAX ALLOCATION IN
CALIFORNIA TO SERVE A POPULATION
OF THREE POINT FOUR MILLION
RESIDENTS.
THIS BILL DOES NOT GIVE ANY NEW
AUTHORITY TO THE VOTERS WHICH
DOES NOT ALREADY EXIST.
VOTERS CURRENTLY HAVE INPUT AT
THE LOCAL LEVEL ON A REGULAR
BASIS REPUBLIC MEETINGS WERE
EVERY ASPECT OF COUNTY
GOVERNMENT IS DISCUSSED.
INCLUDING THE CONSOLIDATION OF
COUNTY OFFICES THEY MAY LWAYS
PROVIDE WRITTEN OR VERBAL
TESTIMONY MEET WITH BOARD
MEMBERS AND STAFF SHOULD THEY
DISAGREE WITH A LOCAL DECISION
THEY ALSO HAVE RECOURSE TO THE
REFERENDUM PROCESS.
IN THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS THERE
HAVE BEEN A NUMBER OF BILLS THAT
WOULD IMPACT LOCAL NINE
CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICES BRINGING
THEIR AUTHORITY CLOSER TO THAT
OF SHERIFF'S DISTRICT ATTORNEYS
ON THE SAUCERS.
THIS AUTHORITY WAS GRANTED BY A
STATEWIDE VOTE OF THE PEOPLE
WITH THE PASSAGE OF THREE
SEPARATE STATE WIDE INITIATIVES
NOT LEGISLATIVELY.
AB TWENTY FIVE FIFTY EIGHT WOULD
ELIMINATE A LOCAL AUTHORITY THAT
PROVIDES FLEXIBILITY FOR ORANGE
COUNTY AND OTHER CALIFORNIA
COUNTIES.
WE URGE YOU TO REJECT THIS
PROPOSAL.
OR STATEWIDE BENEFIT BUT DOES
LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO EFFECTIVELY
GOVERN THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRIS JENKINS.
PERFECT BOOK THAT IT GOOD
MORNING MISTER CHAIRMAN RESTORED
THE JOHNSON WITH THE CALIFORNIA
STATE ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES MY
COLLEAGUE MISTER HENSON'S MISS
JENKINS --
SPOKE TO ALL THE ISSUES THAT WE
ALSO -- HAVE
SERIOUS CONCERNS WITH AND ONE
WE'RE LOOKING AT ARE SMALLER
RURAL COUNTIES AS WELL WHERE
EFFICIENCY IS OF CRITICAL
IMPORTANCE --
WE FEEL THIS WILL ONLY SERVE --
TO UPHOLD OUR AT SORRY TO
INTERFERE WITH --
ACTIONS THAT ARE --
UNDER THE APPROVAL OF THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS AND JUST TO
REITERATE THERE'S RD EXTENSIVE
LAW THAT PROVIDES FOR ON PUBLIC
ENGAGEMENT FOR VOTER ENGAGEMENT
WHO CAN SUBMIT A REFERENDUM TO
AND STOP AN ACTION BY THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS.
AND AGAIN THE PIECEMEAL APPROACH
BY WHICH NON CONSTITUTIONAL
OFFICERS HAVE SOUGHT
CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICER AUTHORITY
WE THINK IT'S AN APPROPRIATE.
AND SHOULD GO TO THE VOTERS
DIRECTLY I'M FOR SUCH AUTHORITY
TO BE GRANTED.
ALSO ONE EXPRESS MY OPPOSITION
ON BEHALF OF THE URBAN COUNTIES
THE CALIFORNIA WHO CANNOT BE
HERE TODAY THANK YOU THINKS MUCH
OF HIM GRATEFUL.
QUICKLY TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYONE
ELSE IN OPPOSITION IF YOU TO
PLEASE COME FORWARD AT THIS TIME
ANYONE ELSE IN OPPOSITION IF
PLEASE GIVE US YOUR PERSONAL S.
ORGANIZATION.
LAST CALL FOR THOSE WHO ARE IN
OPPOSITION.
SEEN IN THE SPRING IT TO
COMMITTEE TO BE ABLE HAVE
CONVERSATION ORGAN TURNED OVER
TO THE VICE CHAIR.
AND WE'RE GONNA GO TO MR
MORLOCK.
THINK THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN.
IS SOME OF THE COMMENTS THAT
WERE MADE I I KINDA WANNA.
CHAT A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT
BECAUSE I THINK IT IT.
IS NOT TRUTHFUL.
AND INACCURATE COLUMN ONE ONE
STATEMENT THAT WASMADE THAT
THIS GIVES NO NEW AUTHORITY TO
VOTERS --
ACTUALLY DOES BECAUSE CARLY THE
VOTERS THE ONLY WAY THEY CAN.
OPPOSE ANYTHING THE BUSH
SUPERVISOR REFERENDUM MEDINA HOW
COSTLY THAT IS.
NO VOTERS.
EXPRESSION A COUNTY BOARD WAS
THREE ONE POINT ONE MILLION
PEOPLE.
ABOUT ONE POINT FOUR MILLION
VOTERS.
PUT A REFERENDUM.
NO ONE HAS TRIED AS AN
INDIVIDUAL.
IT'S UNFAIR TO PUT THAT BURDEN
ON THE VOTER.
SO I HAVE TO SAY I DISAGREE.
I AN THAT'S NOT A PATHWAY FOR
THE VOTERS THAT'S ACTUALLY YOU
KNOW YEAR ON CRIPPLING THEM.
SO DON'T TELL ME THAT'S THE ONE
THAT'S THE WAY.
ON YOU KNOW AND AND YOU KNOW AND
THIS AND THAT I DIDN'T HAVE A
BIT OF THE COUNTY FORM WAS EIGHT
YEARS.
AS A COUNTY SUPERVISOR --
I IN THE STAND.
THE TIME TO MEET THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS NEEDS.
THEY'RE THE ONES WHO DELIVER HOW
HUMAN SERVICES HEALTH SERVICES.
THAT IS NEEDED.
BUT WHEN IT COMES TO THE
FINANCES LIKE THE TAX COLLECTED
THE AUDITOR COULD ADD
CONTROLLER.
THEY NEED TO HAVE THE AUTHORITY.
THAT DATE GET TO GO TO THE
VOTERS BECAUSE IF THEY DON'T
HAVE THE INDEPENDENCE OF THAT.
FORTY AND THEY'RE BEHOLDEN TO
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISOR.
EXPECT T. ARE ALL DUE RESPECT TO
THE COACH COUNTY BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS.
BUT THIS OPPOSITION IS PURELY
PURELY AND I'M AND I'M IN THE
COUNTY [inaudible]
IT'S RETALIATION.
AGAINST AN IRA CONTROLLER.
THEY REFUSE TO ALLOW HIM TO HAVE
LEGAL COUNSEL.
JUST BECAUSE HE SAID I'M NOT
GONNA PAY. FOR THE ALL THESE
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS HUNDREDS OF
THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF MAILERS.
DURING CAMPAIGN SEASON WHICH IS
SO WRONG THAT'S WHY THERE WAS A
BILL LAST YEAR.
I MEAN WHEN YOU HAVE A BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS WHO DECISIVE PLAY
POLITICS JUST BECAUSE IT'S
WRONG.
SENATOR MORE OFTEN I DON'T
ALWAYS AGREE.
WE WERE AT THE BOY.
YOU ASKED WE DON'T ALWAYS AGREE
HERE EITHER --
BUT WE NEVER RETALIATES AGAINST
AN INDIVIDUAL CHEST BECAUSE HE
OR SHE DID SOMETHING.
THAT WE DISAGREE WHEN WE
DISAGREE WE DISAGREE.
I MEAN LIKE I SAID EARLIER THE
OTHER A COMMENT ON THE OTHER
BILL.
AS I AM.
WE HAD AUDIT CONTROLLERS WHO
ALTHOUGH WAS IN AGREEMENT WITH
THE COOK WITH US AT THE TIME WE
STILL GAVE HIM THE AUTHORITY. TO
HIRE HIS OWN LEGAL COUNSEL
BECAUSE HE IS AN ELECTED
OFFICIAL WHO NEEDS THAT
AUTHORITY AND NEEDS LEGAL
COUNSEL AWAY FROM OUR A LEGAL
COUNSEL.
BECAUSE COUNTY COUNCIL BELONGS
TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
BUT OUTSIDE OF THAT WE CAN TELL
I MEAN UNFORTUNATE SOMETIMES YOU
DIDN'T THEIR PEOPLE I MEAN THEIR
BOARDS THE TELEVISION COUNCIL.
HOW TO MAKE SURE THAT IT COMES
OUT THE STATEMENT?
ON A OR LEGAL ADVICE.
A AND AND SO THIS IS A RIGHT
BILL LET THE VOTERS CHOOSE IT'S
NOT TAKING AWAY THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS THE AUTHORITY.
IT IS ASH JUST SAYING HEY BOARD
IF YOU WANT TO CONSOLIDATE GO TO
THE VOTERS AND PRESENT TO US WHY
THE CONSOLIDATION.
PRESENTE WAS YOUR JOB YOUR
ARGUMENTS WHY SHOULD BE.
THEN LET'S DO IT I MEAN I DON'T
SEE WHY THIS IS SUCH A BAD BILL
AND THAT THE THE THE THE
OPPOSITION YOU HAVE.
AGAINST IT.
IT DOESN'T TAKE AWAY THE BORED
AT ALL AND ALLOWS THE BOARD.
THAT FASCI FORCES THE BOARD.
ARE YOU IN FRONT OF THE PUBLIC.
AND SAY THIS IS WHY WE THINK
IT'S A GOOD IDEA IF THE VOTERS
SAYS YES THEN IT IS.
THAT'S THE VOTERS IF THEY SAY
YES THEN THE BOARD GETS TO DO IT
BUT THEY SHOULD NOT HAVE FULL
AUTHORITY.
JUST TO RETALIATE AGAINST.
AND ELECTED OFFICIALS BECAUSE
THEY DON'T AGREE.
WITH SOMETHING.
THE MINIMIZED HERE CEREMONY IN
THE CENTRE BELL.
MISTER CHAIR --
I'VE.
HAD THE PRIVILEGE OVER FOR OVER
A PERIOD TWENTY YEARS TO HOLD
TWO TITLES --
ONE HYPHENATED TREASURER TAX
COLLECTOR AND THEN THE OTHER.
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THE THE
ISSUE OF A APPOINTED VERSUS
ELECTED HAS BEEN A DEBATE THAT
COMES UP.
PROBABLY EVERY YEAR.
SO PRIOR TO MY COMING O THE
COUNTY -- I
THINK IT WAS NINETEEN NINETY THE
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS ORANGE
COUNTY.
DECIDED IT WANTED TO MERGE THE
CLERK WITH THE RECORDER.
AND SO THAT WAS A VOTE DONE BY
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS LONG
TIME AGO WHILE HISTORY LONG TIME
AGO.
SO WE FOUND GARY GRANVILLE
RUNNING AGAINST LEE BRANCH THEY
HAD THERE BOTH RUN FOR THE SAME
NEW POSITION.
AND THAT WAS THE OPPOSITE CLERK
RECORDER IN GRANNY GEAR
GRANVILLE WAS THE SIXTH
SUCCESSFUL [inaudible]
CANDIDATE --
BUT IT WAS PRETTY CLEAR TO THE
PUBLIC THAT THE REASON THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS MERGE THE TWO WAS
SAID.
ME KNOW YOU CAN BE ELECTED BUT
IF YOU'RE NOT DOING A GOOD JOB.
IT REFLECTS ON THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS AND SO THAT WAS THE
WAY.
THAT BOARD.
ADDRESS THAT PARTICULAR
SITUATION --
HAVING STEPPED INTO A COUNTY
WHERE IT WAS IN CRISIS --
THE BANKRUPTCY TO WAS LAID
SQUARE AT THE FEET OF THAT THE
SUPERVISORS.
YOU KNOW THIS IS A PUBLIC THAT
SHOWS UP AND COMES TO THE PODIUM
AND STARTS CHEWING OUT THE
SUPERVISORS FOR THE COUNTY
HAVING FILED FOR CHAPTER NINE
BANKRUPTCY.
AND IN THAT SUPERVISORS RESPECT
THEY SAID WELL WE CAN'T CONTROL
ELECTED [inaudible]
TREASURER WHOSE YOU KNOW DOING
HIS OWN THING.
BUT YET THAT TREASURER GAVE
REPORTS. TO THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS OF THE BOARD KNEW
EXACTLY WHAT WHAT MR CITRON WAS
DUE AND BUT IT HE KICKED OF THE
FOCUS WAS.
WAS THE THAT THE BOARD SURPRISE
EXCEPT FOR THE PUBLIC COULD GO.
AND THEN SUPERVISORS EVEN
DECIDED TO DO NIGHTLY MEETING SO
THE PUBLIC COULD SHOW UP NOW
TOOK THOSE WORK WASN'T.
OPPOSED MARK PLEASANT
EXPERIENCES.
FELT WE HAD TO DEAL WITH IT TOO
SENATOR WHEN I HAD TO DEAL WITH
A PUBLIC GUARDIAN PUBLIC
ADMINISTRATOR THE CANA WHEN YOU
KNOW OFF THE RESERVATION --
THAT IS AN OFFICE THAT IS HALF
ELECTED HALF A POINT.
SO SOMEONE SAID THAT THAT DOES
NOT CURRY DOES OCCUR.
AND SO WE HAD TO GO TO THE DRILL
OF REQUESTING THAT THE ELECTED.
OFFICE BE.
THIS CONTINUED IN JUST BECOME
APPOINTED.
THAT THAT DIDN'T PASS THE VOTERS
WILL KEEP.
ELECTED POSITIONS THEY WANT THEY
WANT THAT --
THEY TRY TO ELIMINATES THE
TREASURER TAX COLLECTOR AS AN
ELECTED POSITION IN NINETEEN
NINETY FIVE AFTER THE
BANKRUPTCY.
IN A BIG BALLOT MEASURE WITH ALL
KINDS OF FIXES THE VOTERS TURN
THAT DOWN TO THE THEY WANT TO
HAVE THEIR ELECTED.
REPRESENTATIVES.
BUT WE GOTTA LET MANAGERS MANAGE
I'M I'MDISTURBED BY THIS BILL
BECAUSE I THINK.
THE SUPERVISORS HAVE THEIR
ABILITY.
AND ONE WITNESS USED THE TERM IN
RUN.
IN AND I SEE THIS AS AN END RUN
BECAUSE I GOT A LOT OF SMALL
LITTLE COUNTIES THAT HAVE MERGED
THESE POSITIONS FOR COST.
REASONS --
SO I HEARD ONE ARGUMENT THAT THE
THE LESS FEMALES WELL WHEN
FRESNO COUNTY DID IT WE HAD.
A FEMALE TREASURER TAX COLLECTOR
UNDER CONTROL.
AND I DON'T SEE FRESNO AS A
SUPPORTING --
AS A A ON MY LIST THEY SEEM TO
HAVE MANAGED QUITE WELL WITH
THAT.
WITH THAT --
MODIFICATION THAT MERGER.
I'M NOT.
COMFORTABLE MISTER CHAIR WITH
THIS WITH THIS BILL --
I YOU KNOW EVERYTHING WILL BE
GREAT IF THE ELECTIVES WERE MORE
QUALIFIED THAN THE APPOINTED
SPIT.
SOMETIMES YOU GET A ROGUE.
SELECT I HAD IT WITH MY
SUCCESSOR.
MY SUCCESSOR STARTED INVESTING
IN PRODUCTS THAT STARTED LOSING
MONEY.
AND HE STARTED DRIFTING ALL OVER
THE PLACE SAYING I'M GONNA
CHANGE OF THIS AND I'M GONNA PUT
UP.
PICK DOWN LEVERS AND I'M GONNA
DO ALL THIS KIND OF STUFF FOREGO
IT WAY THAT'S YOUR JOB.
YOU KNOW SO.
I THINK AS A TEAM EVERYTHING
WORKS WELL WHEN THAT ELECTED
ARE.
WORKING WELL WITH EVERYONE ELSE
THIS SHOWS THAT THERE'S A
PROBLEM SOMEWHERE.
AND AND IT'S NOW SURFACED HERE
AND AND I DON'T KNOW WHY WE HAVE
TO RUN TO SACRAMENTO TO FIX
LOCAL PROBLEMS.
THAT'S WHY I'M I I HAVE SOME
DISCOMFORT MISTER CHAIR THANK
YOU NO THANK YOU SO MUCH WE'RE
GONNA CENTER BELL ANGERING GO
BACK TO THE VICE CHAIR
[inaudible]
WELL -- ALL
THESE JOBS AND ARE COUNTY OR
UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF COUNTY
EXECUTIVE.
SO WE DON'T HAVE ANY OF THESE
ELECTIONS --
IN SANTA CLARA COUNTY SO --
WE ALSO DON'T --
TO THE APPOINT DOJ GOOD CHIEF
PROBATION OFFICER OF THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS THOSE --
WE A POINT --
HEAD OF DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS [inaudible]
COUNTY SUPERVISORS.
SO NOT TO SURE.
SO WE HAVE.
MORE.
A CENTRALIZED CONTROL MODEL THAN
[inaudible]
MOST COUNTIES.
WE HAVE -- A
PRETTY HIGH.
BOND RATING I THINK WERE
EXCEEDING ORANGE COUNTY
[inaudible]
NO --
RELATION EMAIL AYE IT'S BECAUSE
WE'RE NOT THERE ANY WE HAVE.
WE HAVE A HIGH RATING THING WE
HAVE -- FOR
THAT GOOD FOR YOU --
Y. JUST MAKE IT A POINT TO YOU
--
SO EVERYBODY DOES IT DO
EVERYBODY SCRAMBLES THEIR EGGS
DIFFERENTLY IS LIKE PRIVACY.
SO I I HOPE THAT --
IN THE BILL IN THE BILL --
TO PREVENT [inaudible]
CONSOLIDATIONS.
I WOULD I WOULD SAY IT'S NOT A
CONCERN FOR OUR CHARACTERS WERE
NOT EVEN INVOLVED IN THIS
DISCUSSION --
THE CONCERN I HAVE IS LIKE.
CAN YOU MAYBE ANSWER THE
QUESTION ABOUT THE SMALLER
DISTRESSED [inaudible]
COUNTIES THAT.
BASICALLY DON'T HAVE ANY MONEY
THAT ARE.
WE WHAT WE WANT TO PROTECT THE
FISCAL --
CONDITIONS OF THOSE AND HOW HOW
HOW WILL THIS BILL AFFECT.
THAT SITUATION I THINK BUREAU.
CONSOLIDATING --
SOME OF THE JOBS MIGHT BE THE
WAY THE WANT TO DO IT TO HAVE
MORE CONTROL HAVE MORE.
ACCOUNTABILITY THAT WAY IN ONE
JOB I MEAN THERE'S A LOT OF
REASONS.
IN TERMS OF GOOD MANAGEMENT
PRACTICES.
TO HAVE A MORE CENTRALIZED MONO
LAKE ARE COUNTY DOES MAYBE IN A
SMALL COUNTY I MEAN.
SO I KIND OF I'M KIND OF
WONDERING.
AB ONE SIZE DOESN'T FIT ALL KIND
OF HERE IS MY MY COMMENTS.
SO MAYBE CAN RESPOND REGULAR AB
YEAH THANK YOU SEVERAL HARD
QUESTION SO THIS DOESN'T COUNTY
SUPERVISOR TWELVE GUY ANOTHER --
MANY OF THE SENATORS UP WHO WERE
COUNTY SUPERVISORS --
GO.
THIS BILL DOESN'T LIMIT ANY
ACTION BY THE BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS THEY CAN STILL
CONSOLIDATE THESE OFFICES IT
JUST NEEDS TO BE RE AFFIRMED BY
A VOTE OF THE PEOPLE.
BECAUSE WHAT WE'VE SEEN IN
ORANGE COUNTY AND THE VICE CHAIR
OUTLINED THE HISTORY OF THAT
VERY WELL.
VERY TRUTHFULLY AND SO THEN WE
COME UP WITH STORIES.
COUNTY SUPERVISORS MOVED TO CUT
ONE WHY ANOTHER.
SUPERVISORS MOVED TO TAKE AWAY
INDEPENDENT OVERSIGHT
[inaudible]
AND SO YOU COULD HAVE THREE
FIFTHS OF THE COUNTY.
ELIMINATE A POSITION OF THE
GENTLEMAN TO MY RIGHT WHO'S
ELECTED BY THE ENTIRE COUNTY AND
RECEIVE 75% OF THE VOTE ON JUNE
FIFTH.
SO WE ARE JUST.
THEY CAN STILL DO THIS.
WE JUST THEY NEED TO MAKE THE
CASE TO THE VOTERS THEY STILL
HAVE THE POWER TO CONSOLIDATE
MAKE THE CASE BUT THE VOTERS
NEED.
TO REAFFIRM THE OTHER ISSUE
THAT'S NOT CLEAR IN THE LAW IS
WHEN THEY DO THIS.
DO YOU WANT TO MAKE IT APPOINTED
OR ELECTED SO THE SECOND
QUESTION WOULD BE.
DO YOU AFFIRM THE MOVE BY THE
BOARD SECOND.
DO YOU WISH THIS TO BE AN
ELECTOR APPOINTED POSITION GOING
FORWARD THAT'S THAT'S WHAT THE
BILL DOES.
EXEMPTION POLICEMEN AND JUST
ABOUT YOUR POINT AT SENATOR --
THIS COULD POTENTIALLY OF COURSE
UPHOLD THAT DECISION OF CHOPPED
UP VERSION GREEN FOREST OF THE
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
COULD DECIDE WE REALLY NEED TO
FOUR ON FISCAL REASONS
CONSOLIDATE OFFICES BUT IF THE
VOTERS DON'T APPROVE IT THEY
WOULD BE PROHIBITED FROM DOING
SO [inaudible]
THANK YOU.
BUT IF I SIR THANK YOU MISTER
KAREN I JUST I JUST TO ANSWER WE
DON'T SENATOR BILL [inaudible]
I'M.
YEAH I JUST WANTTO SEE YOU I'M
AT TO THE COMMENT MADE EARLIER.
IS THAT --
YOU KNOW WHAT SENATOR MORE LIKE
SIDE PREVIOUS.
TREASURE BEFORE HIM HE ENDED UP
IN JAIL --
SO YOU KNOW I I THINK YOU KNOW
SINCE THEN THOUGH IS YOU KNOW WE
STILL NEED.
THESE IN THESE INDIVIDUALS TO BE
INDEPENDENT.
ON AND IF THEY ARE READY AND
ELECTED NOT AFFECTING STE
COUNTIES THAT ARE APPOINTED.
ON THERE ARE POSITIONS THAT ARE
POINTED IN AND OUGHT TO BE AN
ONLINE DISAGREEMENT WITH THAT
BUT I THINK THAT.
THIS IS RIGHT NOW ANA WHERE YOU
SEE ALL THESE BILLS COMING
FORWARD IS YOU GOTTA LOOK AT
WHERE THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM
IS.
ON MINUTE FOR SHE YOU KNOW IF
YOU LOOK AT IT DEEPER --
IT'S RIGHT THERE IN FRONT OF ALL
THE ICE AND WE'VE ALL BEEN UP
HERE WATCHING IT.
ON AND AND JUST VERY FRUSTRATED
SO I DO APPRECIATE THE
ASSEMBLYMAN I'M PUTTING FORTH
THIS BILL AND I THINK --
IT'S THE RIGHT BILL BECAUSE IT
DOES GIVE THE VOTERS THE
OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE THE DECISION
AND AND IF THE VOTERS SAYS THAT
YOU KNOW IT LET'S SAY.
IF THE BOARDS IS WILL FINANCIAL
WE NEED TO CONSOLIDATE AND THE
VOICE AND NO WE ACTUALLY STILL
WANTED TO BE INDEPENDENT.
THE VOTERS PAYING FOR IT AT IN
THE DAY BECAUSE THE COUNTY
GOVERNMENT EXISTS ONLY.
BY THE VOTERS ND THE TAXPAYER
AND SO THE VOTER SAYS THAT IT'S
IMPORTANT FOR US TO HAVE THEM.
TO BE A AN ELECTED OFFICIAL AND
ACCOUNTABLE TO US I THINK THE
VOTERS SHOULD HAVE THAT RIGHT
AND FOR THAT MISTER CHAIRMAN I
MOVE THE BILL.
BUT YOU DO HAVE A MOTION ON THE
FLOOR OF TO SPEAK VERY QUICK AND
SAID MISTER OBERNOLTE SAID.
EXISTING JOIN THE CONVERSATION
ASHER THAT THEY HAVE ON THIS
ISSUE --
LOOK I EAGER TO FIND A TRAINED
IN THIS COMMITTEE AND WITH
MYSELF IT'S THAT WHEN.
THERE IS AN OPTION FOR THE
VOTERS TO DECIDE WORKING TO
PRESERVE THAT OPTION --
INDOOR EXPANDED.
AND UNDERSTAND THAT IT CAN BE
CHALLENGING.
AND AS A FORMER MEMBER OF THE
CINEMA CALIBER SUPERVISORS --
AND MR CHOOSE THEIR AND
TEMPERANCE IS GO YOU HAVE OF
FOUR OF US THAT WE'RE ALL ON THE
BOARD OF SUPERVISORS --
IT DOES TAKE A FORTY WAY FROM
THE BOARD.
AND I DO THINK THE VOTERS.
NO BETTER THAN US.
I AND THAT --
WORDS LIKE --
WHEN?
LIKE EFFICIENCY MEANS IT IS
CHEAPER FOR THE COUNTY --
AND NOT GREAT FOR THE BOARD.
IS NO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS EVER
WANTS TO BE ABLE TO GIVE UP
THEIR STORY ON THESE POSITIONS.
AND AT THE SAME TIME THOSE IS
EXTREMELY IMPORTANT POSITION.
THE IT SAID IMPORTANT DECISION
FOR THE VOTERS TO BETTER DECIDE
--
AND KNOW THAT WHEN THEY ARE IT
WE HAD A POLICE SHOOTING.
AN OFFICER INVOLVED SHOOTING.
THE INCIDENT COUNTY.
AND CANDIDLY THE SHERIFF DID NOT
WANT TO TALK.
AND WHERE DID THEY END UP.
THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
CHAMBERS.
AND IT'S PART OF THE JOB.
AND IF THERE'S A MISTAKE MADE BY
ON IN ORDER CONTROLLER TAX
COLLECTOR SIDE.
AND THAT INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS
ELECTED DOEN'T WANT TO TALK.
THEY'RE AN INDEPTH BORE
SUPERVISORS IN ITS CANDIDLY PART
OF THE JOB.
BECAUSE THAT BOARD WILL STILL
HAVE BUDGETARY AUTHORITY OR THAT
OFFICE AS WELL.
SO WITH THAT CAN BE SUPPORT OF
THE BILL I DO WANNA ABSOLUTELY.
SICK THANK YOU TO THE OPPOSITION
BECAUSE OF BOTH ARE VERY
COMMITTED AND VERY GRATEFUL --
INNUENDO I DO SAY THINK OF THE
SEVEN MEMBER IN YOU ARE WELCOMED

THIS ISN'T.
SO MUCH A CONSOLIDATION ISSUE I
THINK YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT TWO
VERY IMPORTANT OFFICES AT THE
COUNTY LEVEL YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT THE TREASURER TAX
COLLECTOR THAT PROTECT THAT
PROTECTS OUR PROPERTY TAX IS A
VERY IMPORTANT SOURCE OF
REVENUE.
AND THEN YOU TALKINGTO A
WATCHDOG ORDER AUDITOR OUT A
POSITION --
WHO'S CHARGED WITH.
MAKING SURE WE HAVE GOOD
GOVERNANCE ON THE COUNTY LEVEL
SO I THINK THE TWO POSITIONS
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT HERE OR
DIFFERENT THAN SOME OF THE OTHER
ONES.
AND THAT'S WHY WE FELT THE NEED
FOR THIS BILL JUST CLARIFY
ACROSS THE STATE --
THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE AND I
RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR OTHER.

ENTREPRENEURS --
AT THIS TIME ONE OUT OF THREE
SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS PART
IMMIGRANTS IN A RECENT YEARS 45%
OF ALL NEW BUSINESSES WERE
FOUNDED BY IMMIGRANTS.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY HALF OF THE
CITIES IN OUR STATE REQUIRE AN
APPLICANT FOR BUSINESS LICENSE
TO PROVIDE A SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBER WHICH HAS BEEN A BARRIER
TOO MANY CALIFORNIANS SEEKING
ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.
THIS BILL BUILT ON PREVIOUS
STATE LAWS AND IS CONSISTENT
WITH FEDERAL LAW WHICH

TWENTY ONE EIGHTY FOUR THE
LAWYERS COMMITTEE IS COMMITTED
TO ENSURING CIVIL RIGHTS IN THE
ECONOMY ESPECIALLY AS IT RELATES
TO REMOVING BARRIERS FOR SMALL
BUSINESSES AND EXPANDING ACCESS
ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
THE BILL IS VERY IMPORTANT TO
THE IMMIGRANT BUSINESS OWNER
CLIENTS WE WORK WITH AND TO
PARTNER ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE
STATE.
INCLUDING IN CENTRAL VALLEY
WHERE MANY LOCALITIES REQUIRE
SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS ON LOCAL
BUSINESS LICENSE APPLICATIONS.
THIS FOR CLOSES THE OPPORTUNITY
FOR MANY IMMIGRANTS TO FORMALIZE
THEIR BUSINESSES OR MAKE THEM
DEPENDENT ON OTHERS FOR MAKING
BUSINESS FILINGS.
AB TWENTY ONE EIGHTY FOUR WILL
PROVIDE ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITIES
FORTIES IMMIGRANTS WHOSE RIGHTS
ARE THREATENED BY THE CURRENT
FEDERAL ADMINISTRATION.
WHAT BRING US IN CLOSER
ALIGNMENT WITH CALIFORNIA STATE
LAWS?
THAT SEEK TO INTEGRATE THEM INTO
CIVIC LIFE.
IMMIGRANTS BRING INNOVATION AND
CULTURAL DIVERSITY TO OUR
ECONOMY THROUGH LOCAL
ENTREPRENEURSHIP.
BOSTON PROVIDING GOODS AND
SERVICES TAILORED TO LOCAL
NEEDS.
THIS BILL WOULD THEREFORE
PROVIDE LOCAL BENEFITS AS WELL.
CURRENTLY THE LOCAL REGULATORY
ENVIRONMENT CREATES CONFUSING
INCONSISTENT PATCHWORK FOR
IMMIGRANT BUSINESS OWNERS.
AB TWENTY ONE EIGHTY FOUR BOOK%
CHO ALONG WAY TO REMOVING
SYSTEMATIC BARRIERS FOR
IMMIGRANT CALIFORNIANS.
WILLIE THE GROUNDWORK FOR LONG

OF APPLICATION FOR LOCAL
BUSINESS LICENSE IT'S
UNFORTUNATE THESE BEARS CONTINUE
TO EXIST AND THEY REALLY RUN
COUNTER TO THE EFFORTS THE STATE
HAS MADE TO STRENGTHEN OUR WORK
FIRST.
AND ENSURE THAT CALIFORNIANS
HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO SUPPORT
THEMSELVES AND THEIR FAMILIES
THIS IS A COMMON SENSE APPROACH
TO ADVANCE MORE INCLUSIVE
ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY.
AND UPLIFT THE STRONG
ENTREPRENEURIAL SPIRIT OF OUR
IMMIGRANT FAMILIES WITH THINGS
OF A MEMBER CHIU FOR HIS
LEADERSHIP IN LARGER SUPPORT FOR
THIS EFFORT TOWARDS JUSTICE
INCLUSION AND ECONOMIC

THE ACLU HAS BEEN HANGING OUT

HEARING HIM BACK --
EIGHT NICOLINI ON BEHALF OF A
SERIAL CALIFORNIANS SUPPORT
THINK INITIALLY.
LIKE WE SEE THERE'S ANYONE
ELSE'S FORTY DECREASE ADVANCED
THIS TIME THOSE IN SUPPORT.
LAST CALL WOULD LIKE YOU TO SEE
IF THERE'S ANYONE OPPOSED TO
PLEASE COME FORWARD.
LAST CALL FOR OPPOSED THIS BRING
IT BACK TO COMMITTEE DEBATED
SECRETLY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS
CENTER MORLOCK.
THE KEY RESEARCHER MISTER MISTER
CHIU I'M JUST CONCERNED ABOUT.
THE UNDERGROUND ECONOMY SO IF
YOU DO NOT HAVE A SO SCREWED
NUMBER THEN HOW DO YOU FILE.
AN INCOME TAX RETURN.
YEAH SO I AM THE ONE OF THE
FORMS OF IDEAS A FEDERAL LAW --
INDIVIDUAL IDENTIFICATION
TAXPAYER NUMBER IT'S UP PROVIDED
BY THE IRS FOR INDIVIDUALS AND
TO BE ABLE TO FILE THEIR TAXES
ARE ALSO ADDITION A NUMBER OF
LOCAL BUSINESS LICENSE
APPLICATIONS DON'T ACTUALLY
REQUIRES SO SECURITY NUMBER OR
AND I TEND IN ALL CASES.
SO IT REALLY VARIES DEPENDING ON
WHAT TYPE OF BUSINESS YOU'RE
OPERATING --
AND WHAT THE LOCALITY REQUIRES
SO THERE ARE EVEN SOME
APPLICATIONS THAT WE DON'T SEE A
REQUIREMENT FOR SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBERS.
THEN YOU COULD USE THAT FEDERAL
IDENTIFICATION NUMBER THEN WITH
THAT THE CITY.
THAT'S RIGHT YOU'RE ABLE TO BY
THE IRS THAT'S RIGHT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ANY ADDITIONAL
QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS WE DO HAVE
A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY SENATOR

INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCING
DISTRICT IN SAN FRANCISCO ALONG
CARPORT TO FUND IMPROVEMENTS TO
AGING INFRASTRUCTURE AND
HISTORIC RESOURCES.
AND I SHOULD MENTION OUR SAN
FRANCISCO PORT MANAGES PUBLIC
TRUST LANDS FOR THE STATE.
THIS BILL WOULD REVISE THE SAN
FRANCISCO I'VE DE LAW TO INCLUDE
SHORELINE PROTECTION FOR THE SAN
FRANCISCO SEA WALL.
FARSI WALL WHICH PROTECTS OUR
WATERFRONT WAS BUILT OVER A
CENTURY AGO IT IS RAPIDLY BECAME
HIGHLY VULNERABLE TO EARTHQUAKE
AND SEA LEVEL RISE.
IT IS CRITICAL REGIONAL AND
STATE.
OVER A HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS
OF ECONOMIC ACTIVITY AND ASSETS
WHERE MILLIONS LIVE WORK AND
PLAY INCLUDING TWENTY FOUR
MILLION VISITORS TO CALIFORNIA
EVERY YEAR.
THE SEA WALL ALSO PROTECTS
CRITICAL UTILITY NETWORKS AND
REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION
INFRASTRUCTURE FOR THE BAY.
THE AMENDMENTS TO THE I'VE D.
LAW IN THIS BILL WOULD AUTHORIZE
THE FUNDS FOR SHORELINE
PROTECTION.
PA AND REBUILD THE SEA WALL IT'S
PART OF A BROADER PLAN FOR
FUNDING FROM LOCAL FEDERAL AND
PRIVATE SECTOR SOURCES.
APPRECIATE THE BROAD SUPPORT FOR
THESE CHANGES FROM ALL

RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR YOUR

EARTHQUAKE SAFETY PROGRAM.
THIS IS A TWO TO FIVE BILLION
DOLLAR EFFORT OVER THE NEXT
THIRTY YEARS TO ADDRESS CRITICAL
A SAFETY ISSUES AND FLOOD RISK
--
AB TWENTY FIVE SEVENTY EIGHT
WILL PROVIDE APPROXIMATELY THREE
HUNDRED AND THIRTY MILLION
DOLLARS AFTER BONDING.
AOVER THE NEXT FORTY FIVE YEARS
TO HELP WITH THIS LARGER EFFORT
--
AS ASSEMBLY MEMBER CHIU --
MENTIONS ó WE ARE NOT --
LOOKING TO STATE TO CARRY THE
LOAD HERE BUT RATHER TO
CONTRIBUTE TO A BROADER EFFORT.
I'M JUST LAST WEEK THE ARMY
CORPS OF ENGINEERS ANNOUNCED --
AN EFFORT TO STUDY THE SAN
FRANCISCO SEA WALL OPENING A
PATHWAY TO FEDERAL FUNDING.
OF FLOOD CONTROL FUNDING AND THE
SAN FRANCISCO BOARD OF

THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANK YOU SO MUCH SIR WOULD THAT
BE TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYONE ELSE
IN SUPPORT GLEE'S COMPORTS TIME
WITH LOOKING FOR SUPPORT
[inaudible]
LAST CALL.
NOW I WOULD LIKE TO BE TO SEE IF
WE HAVE ANYONE IN OPPOSITION IF
YOU TO PLEASE COME FORWARD
[inaudible]
GLASCOFF PROPOSITION.
LET'S BRING BACK TO COMMITTEE WE
HAVE CENTER BELL.
OKAY PERHAPS WE CAN ADDRESS THE
ISSUE OF FALL.
THE FACT THAT THIS CONTINUES THE
TAX INCREMENT SO.
USE OF TAX INCREMENT
[inaudible] TWO OF GRANT THOSE.
SKY LIKE GRANTING AN EXCEPTION
TO THE RULE.
OF SERVE BECAUSE YOU ALREADY
HAVE SOME.
PREVIOUSLY DISLOCATION BUT TAX
INCREMENT FINANCING AND SETTING
A PRECEDENT BECAUSE I'M WORRIED
ABOUT OTHERS COMING IN AND
EXACTLY.
ASKING ABOUT THE SAME THING OR
MAYBE EVEN THE SITTING COUNTY
SAN FRANCISCO OTHER
JURISDICTIONS.
MAYBE WE COULD ADDRESS THAT
THAT'S THE THE BIG ISSUE THE
IT'S NOT SO MUCH YOUR PROJECT
BUT THE CONCEPT OF THIS.
HACKS INCREMENT QUESTION
PRESIDENT.
SURE IT'S IT'S DIFFERENT FAIR
QUESTION --
I WOULD SAY A FEW THINGS AND
THEN LET MISTER BENSON AT
ANYTHING ELSE CLUMPS OF THIS
LEGISLATURE HAD ALREADY MADE THE
DECISION IN TWO THOUSAND FIVE
AND IT WAS AN AMENDED AT TWO
THOUSAND TEN FOR AND I DO
DISTRICT ALONG.
THE SEA WALL.
EMINEM THE ON WHICH ON YA KNOW
--
MISS MAKE DID BEFORE HIM AND
THOUGHT THAT WAS TO PROVIDE
IMPROVEMENTS FOR AGING
INFRASTRUCTURE ALONG THE PORT
THIS WOULD SIMPLY ALLOW US TO
USE MONEY TO REBUILD THE SEA
WALL -- SO
IT IT IT'S REALLY A FOR ANOTHER
IMPORTANT THING TO NOTE IS WHILE
WE ARE AS A CITY ASKING FOR SOME
RESOURCES TO PAY FOR THIS
INFRASTRUCTURE.
IF WE DON'T MAKE THIS INVESTMENT
--
WE JEOPARDIZE FUTURE ATTACKS
PROPERTY REVENUE SO THE ESTIMATE
IS -- IS SIR --
WE WILL IF WE'RE ABLE TO DO A
SHORT UPPER PROTECTIONS SEE
POTENTIALLY UP TO EIGHT BILLION
DOLLARS OF NEW PROPERTY TAX
REVENUES LAW INCLUDING DIRECT
AND INDIRECT ARE IMPACTS ALONG
THE WATERFRONT.
ARE IN THE COMING YEARS IF WERE
ABLE TO MAKE UP THE EIGHT A
SMALL INVESTMENT ARE IN BEING
ABLE TO MOE THIS FORWARD.
UP BUT I I WILL SAY THERE IS A A
BROADER CONVERSATION HERE AROUND
SEA LEVEL RISE AND HOW WE'RE
GOING TO BE ABLE TO PROTECT --
AT THE PROTECTIVE FOR PARTS OF
OUR STATE AND WE THINK --
THAT THIS COULD BE A MODEL --
WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO PUT IT
IMPROVEMENTS THAT PROTECT FUTURE
PROPERTY TAX REVENUES THAT WILL
COME IN BECAUSE OF THE PERMITS
WE MADE --
THIS COULD BE A MODEL FOR OTHER
SO -- THAT'S
YOU A COUPLE THOUGHTS ON THAT
[inaudible]
THE THE IDEA AND SPUR
DEVELOPMENT TO CREATE TAX
INCREMENT. TO PROTECT --
PHASEOLUS SAID THAT WHEN.
MAY APPLY TO THIS PARTICULAR.
CASE BUT I THINK IT'S SOMEWHAT
PROBLEMATIC WHEN YOU DEAL WITH
OTHER PARTS OF THE SAN FRANCISCO
BAY [inaudible]
REPRESENTING OUR THROUGH THE
SOUTH BAY WHICH WE HAVE THE OF
COURSE A NATURAL RESOURCES.
YOU KNOW THE NATIONAL WILDLIFE
REFUGE OTHER KINDS OF IT IS YOU
KNOW STIMULATE.
TAX INCREMENT USE.
MAYBE NOT THE WAY YOU WANT A
DEAL WITH TO SEE RISE THERE'S
OTHER.
FINANCING THAT MAYBE MORE BUT
NINE IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENT.
STIMULATION IF YOU WANNA SAY IT
THAT WAY TAX INCREMENT CREATES A
AN INCENTIVE.
FOR DEVELOPMENT TO CREATE THE
TAX INCREMENT.
WHEREAS IF YOU HAD LIKE THE
REGION ALL.
LIKE WE HAD OUR MEASURE ARE ARE
--
PROBABLY IS MORE BUT NINE
EVERYBODY PAYS EVERYBODY LOOKS
AT THE GOAL --
TAKING THAT KIND OF APPROACH IS
MORE BENIGN ENTERS A STIMULATE
DEVELOPMENT WE DON'T.
WANT TO STIMULATE DEVELOPMENT.
ATTACKED THE BUT THIS CASE I
THINK.
PURITY HAVE.
THE CRUMBLING INFRASTRUCTURE
THAT THERE'RE THAT'S SOMEONE
DANGEROUS.
THAT'S RIGHT AND AND AND AND
AGAIN I THINK YOU'RE YOUR POINTS
ARE WELL TAKEN IN THIS
PARTICULAR PART OF OUR CITY IS
AS YOU A VERY WELL.
OPEN NO THERE'S ENORMOUS
ECONOMIC ACTIVITY HAPPENING
ALREADY THIS IS THESE ARE THE
DENSEST FAR WORKFORCE HUB
NEIGHBORHOODS --
IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA OVER A
HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF
ECONOMIC ASSETS TENS OF MILLIONS
OF FOLKS WHO COME IN AND OUT.
AND IF WE DON'T SURE THIS UP --
THE HIT TO AS YOU PUT IT
ECONOMIC --
DEVELOPMENT IN THE FUTURE IS IS
ABSOLUTELY AT JEOPARDY SO SO
YEAH YOU'RE RIGHT THAT WHAT WE
ARE TALKING ABOUT HERE.
THE INCENTIVE.
TO IT'S WHERE THERE IS ALREADY
CURRENT ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
THAT COULD BE PARTICULAR TO WHAT
WE'RE DOING HERE WHICH IN PART
WAS WHY IN TWO THOUSAND FIVE IN
TWO THOUSAND TEN THIS
LEGISLATURE.
THOUGHT IT MADE SENSE TO TO SET
THIS UP TO BE LOOKED AT AS
PRESIDENT. FOR TAX INCREMENT
[inaudible]
GENERALLY.
BECAUSE IT OTHER PEOPLE COME AND
SAY WELL YOU DID OFFER THOSE WHY
CAN'T.
IF YOUR TAX INCREMENTS AND FOR
OUR PROBLEMATIC AREAS THAT NEED
BUT FAIR IF YOU'RE ASKING ME IF
IF YOU'RE ASKING ME IF I'M GOING
TO SUGGEST FUTURE I'VE DIS IN
OTHER PARTS OF THE BAY WHERE
THERE'S NOT AS MUCH ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENT.
IF YOU TELL ME YOU DON'T WANT ME
TO I WON'T I'M JUST ASKING TO DO
OURS ARE FOR THOSE GOOD I KNOW
YOU WILL ANYWAY SO.
I KNOW THIS BELIEF AS BECKY --
HE'S A VERY AVID AVID ADVOCATE
FOR ITSELF --
I APPRECIATE THAT --
I THINK IT'S A FUTURE DISCUSSION
HOWEVER.
TOUCHY TO DO WITH --
FINANCING AND YOU KNOW FOR
SPECIALLY FOR THINGS LIKE OUR
RADIO PROGENY ARE REAL PROJECTS
OR JUST --
IT ALTHOUGH TRANSITORY AND
DEVELOPMENT SO THERE'S A LOT OF
THINGS WE NEED --
TO TO CONSIDER --
OF FINANCING OF FOR BUT I DON'T
WANNA MAKE I WANT TO MAKE A
STATEMENT I DON'T BELIEVE THIS
IS A PRECEDENT MISTER CHAIRMAN
SO.
BUT BE CAREFUL ABOUT.
THE THE DISCUSSION TAX
INCREMENTS FOR THE FUTURE.
I AM NOT INTENDED THIS BE A
PRECEDENT BUT I DO HOPE WE CAN
GET THE STUFF.
THANK YOU SO MUCH ADVANCING
QUICK COMMENTS BUT I MISS HIM A
LOT.
MISTER CHAIR I JUST WANNA.
COVER A COUPLE QUICK ITEMS IF I
COULD BECAUSE FIFTY ONE PAID
BILL IT'S RATHER COMPLEX --
BUT TO IT DOES DISCUSS E. RAFFIN
SINCE I'M FROM ORANGE COUNTY A
LITTLE SENSITIVE ABOUT THE RAFT
--
ORANGE COUNTY GETS SICK SINCE ON
THE DOLLAR IN SAN FRANCISCO GET
SIXTY FIVE CENTS ON THE DOLLAR
SO IT'S A KIND OF AN AWKWARD.
DEAL WERE WERE ALL SENSITIVITY
LEADERSHIP IN ORANGE COUNTY'S OF
WHEN YOU ALSO FUND SCHOOLS OUT
OF IRAQ YOU.
BACK FILL AND I'M JUST
[inaudible]
CONCERNED.
WILL THAT MEAN THAT IN.
THE FUNDING FROM THE GENERAL
FUND TO BACKFILL IRAQ FOR THE
SCHOOLS IS THAT MEAN THAT.
EVERY COUNTY AND CITY IS GOING
TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS.
INDIRECTLY OR EVEN DIRECTLY BY.
HAVING A SHIFT ON THE REROUTE.
SO -- AND
SENATOR MORLOCK AND BRAD JOHNSON
FROM THE PORT OF SAN FRANCISCO
--
WE DID --
BUT INDEPENDENT ECONOMIC
ANALYSIS OF THE EFFECTS OF THIS
BILL.
PORT PROPERTY IS A NARROW BAND
OF PROPERTY ALONG SAN FRANCISCO
BAY JUST THE FILLED AREAS
LARGELY PROTECTED BY THE SEA
WALL SO WE DON'T HAVE THAT MANY
DEVELOPMENT OPPORTUNITY AREAS.
I'M WE PROJECT ABOUT FOUR
HUNDRED SIXTY SIX MILLION
DOLLARS IN EUROPE SHIFT OVER
FORTY FIVE YEARS.
THAT SAME DEVELOPMENTS THAT
WOULD GENERATE THAT TAX
INCREMENT WILL GENERATES --
ALMOST EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS IN
DIRECT AND INDIRECT BENEFITS TO
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA IN THE
FORM OF OTHER TAXES.
WE THINK THIS IS THE ECONOMIC
KEEP YOUR ECONOMIC LOOK IS THAT
THIS IS GOOD INVESTMENT FOR
THE STATE BECAUSE IT'S NOT CLEAR
THAT ALL OF THAT DEVELOPMENT
WILL HAPPEN.
UNLESS WE HAVE A STABLE
SHORELINE AND THAT'S WERE
DEALING WITH THE SEISMIC RISK IN
THE FLOOD RISK.
THAT WOULD OTHERWISE POTENTIALLY
THREATEN NOT THAT FUTURE
DEVELOPMENT AND THAT FUTURE TAX
GROWTH TO THE STATE.
I GUESS BACK TO MY QUESTION IS
THAT MEAN THAT.
WERE ALL SHARING IN THIS SEA
WALL INDIRECTLY SOME OVER A
PAINFUL.
WE DO BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A
STATE INTEREST IN THE SEA WALL
THESE ARE STATE TIDELANDS YES
YES.
IT'S AN INVESTMENT THAT WILL BE
MADE THAT WILL PAY MULTIPLES.
IT SHOULD ACTUALLY BENEFIT
EVERYBODY ELSE.
SHOULD YOUR PROJECTIONS IN YOUR
STUDY BE ACCURATE THAT'S CORRECT
[inaudible]
I'M.
AND THEN THIS BIKE AND
PEDESTRIAN FACILITY IS I JUST A
BY PRODUCT WHILE YOU'RE THERE.
BUILDING THE WALL YOU MIGHT AS A
BILL.
A BIKE PATH TO CURE POURING THE
CONCRETE IS AT WE'RE GONNA BE
DOING WORK IN THE EMBARCADERO
ROADWAY THE SEA WALL IS RIGHT
UNDERNEATH THE EMBARCADERO THEIR
EXISTING BIKE LANES ALONG THE
EMBARCADERO THAT MAY BE IMPACTED
BY THAT WORK AND WE WANT TO BE
ABLE TO REBUILD.
A MULTI MODAL BROADWAY WHEN
WE'RE DOING THIS WORK.
I SING COMPLEX THANK YOU VERY
MUCH.
THANK YOU MISTER THANK YOUS WERE
LOG.
DO APPRECIATE OTHER SIR BRING
THIS FORWARD.
ADEN LOOK.
I I THINK THAT WE CAN SEVEN
CISCO AND ECONOMIC HUB THAT IT
GIVES.
IDENTITY IS FOR THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA --
BUT CANDIDLY THE STATE IS GOING
TO BE BACK SELLING --
THIS PROJECT UP FROM THE WRATH
SO IT PIZZA IT'S ABSOLUTELY
CORRECT THAT THE STATE WILL BE
BACK FEELING.
I I THINK THAT WE CAN MAKE --
ADDITIONAL CASES CRITICALLY WE
TAKE A LOOK AT FOR EXAMPLE THE
NORTH BAY WITH WILDLAND FIRES --
IN THE GREAT NEED THEIR AND
UNDERSTAND THAT THERE MAY BE
SOME CONCERN AND TO APPRECIATE
CENTER BROWN BRING THAT FORCING
THIS SHOULD NOT BE PRECEDENT.
FULL DISCLOSURE THIS IS AN ITEM
THAT --
NORTH BAY COUNTIES ARE TAKING A
LOOK AT BECAUSE BOB THAT TWELVE
POINT THREE BILLION DOLLAR
INSURED LOSSES THAT WE'VE SEEN
BOTH IN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE
INFRASTRUCTURE --
FROM THESE DEVASTATING FIRESTORM
SO HOT THIS.
THIS IT LEGISLATURE'S CAN NEED
TO CONTINUE TO MAKE A DECISION
ON WHAT IS GOING TO BE BASS FOR
THE WHOLE.
LA ON THESE POTENTIAL PROPOSALS
ON AND I WOULD SAY --
WHEN WE TAKE A LOOK AT THIS
ECONOMIC CUB THAT THAT'S HIM
CISCO'S BECOME FOR THE REST THE
STATE THIS IS A GOOD INVESTMENT?
BUT I THINK WE'RE GONNA SEE
ADDITION PROPOSAL CERTAINLY
MOVING FORWARD --
THAT WILL BE ABLE TO ASSIST CAN.
THAT SAID IT WILL BE A
SUPPORTIVE OF THE BILL TODAY AND
TURNED OVER TO SOME NUMBER CHIU
FOR EIGHTEEN NEED AT CLOSING
COMMENTS AND WE'RE GOING TO NEED
A A MOTION FROM THE COMMITTEE.

THE DISABLED VETS AND THE SMALL
BUSINESS COMMUNITY SO I WOULD

BRIEFLY THAT WE BUT KEEP THOSE
IN MIND THAT AS A SAYS UP TO
BENEFIT THAT COMMUNITY --
A AS SUCH SO --
AB TWENTY SIXTEEN WHAT WOULD BE
PROMOTE TECH GREAT INCLUSION FOR
THE OPPORTUNITY FOR DISABLED
VETERAN ENTERPRISES AND LOCAL
SMALL BUSINESSES.
SOCIAL ENTERPRISES AND LOCAL
AGENCY CONTRACTING ACTIVITIES.
ARE IN TWENTY SIXTEEN THE LA
COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
ADOPTED ITS SMALL BUSINESSES
TABLE VETERAN BUSINESS OWN
SOCIAL ENTERPRISE.
UTILIZATION PLAN TO PROMOTE AND
FACILITATE BUSINESSES THAT
DISTINGUISH THEMSELVES BY
PROMOTING POSITIVE SOCIAL
ECONOMIC HEALTH AND
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
AS PART OF THIS EFFORT THE BOARD
ADOPTED ORDINANCE TO ALLOW
CONTRACT PREFERENCES. FOR
QUALIFIED LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES
DISABLED VETERAN BUSINESSES AND
SOCIAL ENTERPRISES --
UNLESS OTHERWISE REQUIRED BY LAW
--
BUT I WILL JUST WRAP UP AND SAY
THAT IT'S A IN A PRIOR LIFE I
WAS CEO FOR THE CALIFORNIA
SPENDING CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE
AND I WAS.
THE FORMER DIRECTOR OF
GOVERNOR'S OFFICE OF BUSINESS
AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND I
HAVE TO SAY THAT LA COUNTY HAS
ONE OF THE MOST COMPREHENSIVE
EFFORTS.

SUPPORT.
LAST CALL WHEN I WOULD LIKE YOU
TO SEE IF THERE'S ANYONE OPPOSE
CREATES CONFIRMED CHURCH IF YOU
ARE.
ANYONE ELSE WHO OPPOSED.
WIENER BRING IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE --
CENTER ABOUT THE JUST --
I JUST HAD A COMMENT THOUGH ON
THE BILL.
I WANTED --
TO THINK THE ASSEMBLY MEMBER.
FOR THE SOCIAL ENTERPRISE
ELEMENT AS WELL SO VETERANS
BECAUSE I THINK ONE OF OUR
PRIMARY GOALS WITH --
SP ONE AND A MANY OF THE
TRANSPORTATION --
FINANCE OF LEGISLATION WAS TO
ENCOURAGE SMALL MINORITY WOMEN
BUSINESS ENTERPRISES AS WELL AS
OPPORTUNITIES.
FOR INDIVIDUALS THAT HAVE --
DISABILITIES OF OPPORTUNITIES
FOR ABOUT PEOPLE THAT --
HAVE FORMALLY INCOME BEEN
INCARCERATED --
I THINK THESE KINDS OF PROGRAMS.
SHOULD BE STATEWIDE I'D LIKE TO
SEE.
EVENTUALLY THIS BE --
STATEWIDE [inaudible]
POLICY --
AND I'LL WORK WITH YOU ON THAT
BECAUSE I THINK WE HAD WE HAD
AND THE DO BUDGET SUBCOMMITTEE
--
DAIMON ON PUBLIC SAFETY.
A PARTICULAR --
PROBLEM WITH --
DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS.
AND THE PRIDE INDUSTRY ISSUE.
AND I KNOW THAT CAME UP DURING
THE BUDGET.
AND I WANT TO SEE THIS --
WE SHOULD HAVE A VERY AGGRESSIVE
SUPPORT OF POSITION [inaudible]
ON PROGRAMS THAT --
ENCOURAGE --
THESE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS
THAT PROVIDE JOBS FOR PEOPLE
WITH DISABILITIES. TO HAVE AN
OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE --
JOBS -- WITH
THESE PUBLIC PROGRAMS IN FACT
THIS BILL OPENS THE DOORS
THROUGH THAT.
YOU'RE GONNA OPEN THE DOORS FOR
A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH
DISABILITIES. TWO OF EMPLOYMENT
AND THAT'S THAT GIVES THEM
PRIDE.
IN THEIR LIVES TO HAVE THAT JOB.
AND I I THINK --
HISPANIC CHAMBER OF COMMERCE IN
THE WORK YOU DO THIS IS BEEN A
LONG [inaudible]
STANDING.
GOAL OF THE HISPANIC CHAMBER
CONGRESSES IN CALIFORNIA
ESPECIALLY MINE IS SILICON
VALLEY.
AND WE ARE WE WE VIEW THIS IS A
LANDMARK PIECE OF LEGISLATION.
FOR STATE I LIKE TO SEE THIS
STATEWIDE.
AT SOME POINT THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I DON'T
WANT TO SPEAK FOR A SIMILAR
BIRTH THINK SHE LIKES ME TO SEE
THAT I THINK THERE'S SOME
WRINKLES THAT WE NEED TO BE AT
WORK THROUGH ON THAT ONE UP BUT
AT THIS IS A FANTASTIC FOR STEP.
THAT IS ONE ALSO RECOGNIZE
CENTER BELL FOR ALL HIS WORK AT
FOR THOSE IN THE DD COMMUNITY AS
WELL AS THOSE WHO ARE DISABLED
WHO DIFFERENCE HE THINK IS
SUITABLE FOR YOUR EFFORTS. TO
TURN OVER THE GOOD SENATOR FROM
SAN FERNANDO VALLEY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH I AM VERY
IMPRESSED BY.
OUR NEW ASSEMBLY MEMBER FROM THE
LA COUNTY IS A FORMER CHAIR OF
THE LA COUNTY CAN ON THE
DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION.
WE GO IN THE TWO THOUSAND AND
FOUR TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN WE
SPENT A LOT OF TIME ON THESE
ISSUES AND I REALLY APPRECIATE
WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
AND IF AT THE APPROPRIATE TIME
OF YOU WOULD SO EXCEPT ME TO BE
A CO AUTHOR OF THIS IMPORTANT
MEASURE --
TO ELECTRICAL I'LL TAKE THAT
UNDER CONSIDERATION PROPS SCHOOL
WORK.
SO I DID.
OR BOTH [inaudible]
YEAH.
YOU'RE HOSED HER TEA HAY FEEDER
GO.
VOTE THERE GO VOTE THAT'S A
THAT'S RIGHT YEAH AND CREE OF
SONY DOWN YES PLEASE
[inaudible]
SURE.
IT'S CREEL WELCOME I'M HERE.
HOW WILL THIS BE MEASURED?
AND BY WHOM.
I WOULD NOTE YOUR PROGRAM'S
GONNA BE AFFECT.
THAT'S A GREAT QUESTION BECAUSE
SOME OF THE AMENDMENTS THAT WE
TOOK WITH THE WRKING WITH --
THE CHAIR OF THE COMMITTEE AS
WELL AS THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS --
THE IN GENERAL IS WE'RE DOING IT
IN -- THE
ONLY IN CERTAIN COUNTIES SO LA
COUNTY BLAKE.
WE'RE WORKING ON THE BAY AREA --
AND PERHAPS PERHAPS ORANGE
COUNTY NOT QUITE SURE IF WE GOT
TO THAT POINT YET.
BUT IN THESE COUNTIES THAT WERE
SELECTED ALREADY TO THIS THIS
TYPE OF PROGRAMMING.
THAT WE WANT TO DO IS TO
INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF GUNS THAT
ARE GIVING OUT TO THE DISABLED
COMMUNITY AND SOCIAL ENTERPRISES
AND SEE HOW IT'S MEASURED.
SO THAT HOPEFULLY ONE DAY WE CAN
DO THIS PROGRAM STATEWIDE.
BUT HOW WOULD YOU PREVENT FRAUD
[inaudible]
WELL -- WE
ARE DOING --
A SMALLER INCREASE ORIGINALLY
THE BILL WAS THAT AN 11%
INCREASE WERE ONLY DOING.
SEVEN ALL RIGHT NOW OF ITS AT
FIVE IN ADDITION --
TO THE PROJECTS WOULD NOT BE ANY
MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS.
AND SO IT'S NOT A A HUGE LUMP OF
PROJECTS IN TERMS OF FUNDING.
BUT HOPEFULLY.
THE COUNTIES ALREADY ACTUALLY
HAVE THE MECHANISMS IN PLACE TO
WORK WITH THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT
ARE DOING THE TYPE OF WORK AND I
COULD CERTAINLY.
LET YOU SPEAK ON WHAT LA COUNTY
IS DOING ITS LA COUNTY IT
CURRENTLY HAS --
PREFERENCE PROGRAMS AVAILABLE
FOR LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES BY
DISABLED VETERANS AND SOCIAL
ENTERPRISES AND OUR CURRENT
PREFERENCES AT 15% --
AND GET WE MONITOR ALSO THE
CONTRACTS AND WE HAVE A A A A
TEAM THAT THAT DOUBLE ON IT
[inaudible]
TAKEN -- A
RECOMMENDATION FROM VARIOUS
DEPARTMENTS OF THERE'S A SENSE
OF OF ANY TYPE OF FRAUD OR
ABUSE.
AND WE MOB.
MODIFYING FORCE INTERNALLY.
THANK YOU --
ENTER LARA GIVE ME A FEW MORE
QUESTIONS TO ASK SINCE THIS IS
YOUR FIRST TIME SO WE BUT IT
DOES.
TOO BUT THANK YOU VERY MUCH
[inaudible]
WE GO.
SENATE BILL QUITO OF IT MY
EXPERIENCE AND PUBLIC WORKS
CONTRACTS AS YOU KNOW TALKING
ABOUT [inaudible]
DESTRUCTION.
IS THAT.
THESE KIND OF PROGRAMS
[inaudible]
IF THERE.
SETTING GOALS LIKE WAY AND AND
MONITORING AND AND PERFORMANCE
REQUIREMENTS AND FRAUD
PROTECTION ALTHOUGH THOSE THINGS
SHOULD BE PART OF IT.
BUT IF YOU SET THESE UP HEARING
CLEAR ESSENTIALLY ENCOURAGING
COMPETITION YOU'RE CREATING MORE
OPPORTUNITIES FOR MORE PEOPLE.
TO SUBMIT BIDS ON PROJECTS
GETTING INVOLVED IN BIDDING.
AND MORE COMPETITION --
AS OPPOSED TO HAVING LARGE
CONTRACTS FOR THE SELECT FEW
COMPANIES THAT GONNA.
CAN MEET THOSE STANDARDS FOR THE
LARGE CONTRACTS WHO OFTENTIMES
YOU KNOW TO DO.
THE COME IN AND GET A CONTRACT
AND AND A AND THEN THEY GO
THROUGH THIS WHOLE.
GAME OF THE CHANGE ORDERS AND
AND THEY THEY THAT.
THAT COSTS GOVERNMENT MORE.
MORE BY ALLOWING THAT TO HAPPEN
[inaudible]
THEN.
HAVING PREFERENCE PROGRAMS AND
THINGS. TO ENCOURAGE SMALL
MINORITY BUSINESS ENTERPRISES TO
PARTICIPATE.
ALLOW THESE PEOPLE CAN DO THEM
BUT JOB MUCH CHEAPER MORE
EFFECTIVE IN QUICKER.
AND GETTING THOUGH WORKFORCE
ENGAGED AND AND PROJECTS SO IT
ACTUALLY SAVES MONEY.
ON HOME IN MY OPINION IN A HOUSE
IN MY EXPERIENCE WITH THOSE
PROJECTS.
WE THE BIG THE BIG BOYS
[inaudible]
NEED SOME.
SO THEY NEED TO LOOK OVER HER
SHOULDER.
THEY NEED SOME COMPETITION.
AND THAT MAKES THEM PERFORM
BETTER TOO SO.
I THINK I I THINK WE HAVE TO
HAVE THAT COUNT ABILITY WITH
THIS COMPETITION --
ON THE PUBLIC WORKS --
ESPECIALLY LUCKY WORKS PRETTY.
WE A SENATE DECIDED TO ADVANCE A
MOTION HERE JUST A BIT AGO.
BOMB THREAT IN THE VERY
BEGINNING ABSOLUTELY HATED WE GO
DO WANT TO SAY THANK YOU CENTER
BUT ALSO WE HAVE A MOTION THE
FORCES DO PASS AS AMENDED TO
VETERANS AFFAIRS ASSEMBLY WOMAN
WOULD YOU LIKE TO GET A CLOSE.
YES THANK YOU I REPRESENT A
DISTRICT THAT LIVES 20% BELOW
THE NATIONAL POVERTY LINE.
WITH A LARGE POPULATION OF
BETTER AND SO A LARGE POPULATION
OF DISABLED VETERANS.
AND WE WANT TO DO THE BEST WE
CAN TO ENSURE THAT PEOPLE HAVE
ACCESS TO GOOD JOBS.
AND SO PART OF THE QUESTION
ADDRESS BY SENATOR LARA WHO'S
NOT HEARING WILL HEAR THE REST
OF ME LATER --
WHO'S ALSO FROM EAST LOS ANGELES
IS HOW DO WE MAKE HOW DO WE USE
THIS AS A PROGRAM NOW TO ENSURE
THAT WE CAN WORK TOWARD A MORE
STATEWIDE INITIATIVE MOVING
FORWARD.
AND SO THAT COUNTIES ACROSS OUR
STATE WHO [inaudible]
HAVE.
ACTION NECESSARY WILL SEE THIS
AS AN OPPORTUNITY TO DEVELOP
THAT IT MOVE THAT FORWARD --
