JAMES MORE AND I ALONG WITH MY
COLLEAGUE MA'AM ACETO WILL BE
BRIEFLY HIGHLIGHTING THE
TRANSPORTATION ISSUES INCLUDING
THE MAY REVISION. AFTER OUR
PRESENTATION WE AND DEPARTMENT
REPRESENTATIVES WILL BE
AVAILABLE TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS. FIRST I'D LIKE TO
HIGHLIGHT THAT THE TOTAL
INVESTMENT IN THE TRANSPORTATION
PACKAGE REMAINS THE SAME AS IN
THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET.
ADMINISTRATION DID NOT PROPOSE
ADDING TWO OR REDUCING ANY OF
THE PROPOSED CUTS IN THE RIVER
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET. HOWEVER THE
MAY REVISION PROPOSES TO SHIFT
ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION OF
THE ONE POINT TWO BILLION DOLLAR
PORTS PACKAGE FROM GENERAL FUND
TO STATE HIGHWAY ACCOUNT. THE
TRANSPORTATION AGENCY REVIEW
THIS LIST OF POTENTIAL PROJECTS
AND IDENTIFIED A HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS OF PORT AND
FREIGHT INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAM
P. FIVE PROJECTS. THAT WERE
ELIGIBLE FOR A STATE HIGHWAY CAL
USE UNDER ARTICLE NINETEEN.
SECOND THE CALIFORNIA
TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
REQUESTS TWO HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS ON GOING FOR SEQUEL
RELATED LEGAL WORK. THE
COMMISSION HAS TRADITIONALLY
RELIED UPON AND THE DEPARTMENT
OF JUSTICE STAFF FOR ITS SEQUEL
LEGAL WORK BUT DOJ HAS INFORMED
THE COMMISSION THAT IT CAN NO
LONGER PERFORM THIS WORK DUE TO
RESOURCE CONSTRAINTS. THE
REQUESTED RESOURCES WILL ALLOW
THE COMMISSION TO RETAIN
INDEPENDENT COUNSEL FOR THESE
ISSUES. ON MAY FIRST CALTRANS
SUBMITTED ITS ANNUAL CAPITAL
OUTLAYS SUPPORT LETTER TO
INCREASE ENGINEERING RESOURCES
FOR VARIOUS TRANSPORTATION
PROJECT WORK PERFORMED BY
CALTRANS. THIS YEAR'S REQUEST
WAS THIRTY NINE POINT ONE
MILLION DOLLARS AND ONE HUNDRED
AND FORTY THREE FULL TIME
EQUIVALENTS AND CONFORMS TO THE
TRADITIONAL NINETY TEN SPLIT
BETWEEN STATE WORKERS AND
CONTRACT RESOURCES. CALTRANS
REQUEST SIX POINT SIX MILLION
DOLLARS AND TWENTY SEVEN
POSITIONS ONE TIME TO BEGIN ON
BOARDING TO FISCALE. CALTRANS
RECEIVED PRE ONBOARDING PLANNING
RESOURCES FOR FISCAL ON THE TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY TWO BUDGET AND
IS NOW READY TO BEGIN ON
BOARDING. THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR
OF WHAT WILL BE A MULTI YEAR
EFFORT. FINALLY CALTRANS ALSO
REQUESTS TWENTY NINE POINT EIGHT
MILLION DOLLARS IN TWENTY THREE
TWENTY FOUR. AND SEVEN POINT
THREE MILLION DOLLARS ON GOING
FOR A VARIETY OF TECHNICAL
ADJUSTMENTS INCLUDING VEHICLE
INSURANCE PREMIUMS AND
AUGMENTING FEDERAL AUTHORITIES
FOR A RECENTLY. AWARDED ROAD
USAGE CHARGE FEDERAL GRANT. NOW
I'LL TURN IT OVER TO MY
COLLEAGUE MATT MACEDO WHO WILL
SUMMARIZE THE DMV'S MAY REVISION
PROPOSALS. GOOD AFTERNOON MADAM
CHAIR AND MEMBERS- MY NAME IS
MATTHEW MASINA WITH THE
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE. STARTING
UP WITH DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR
VEHICLES- AS A RESULT OF LOWER
REVENUE PROJECTIONS AND ANY
RESULTING INCREASE IN THE BUDGET
PROBLEM. MAY REVISION PROPOSES
ADJUSTMENTS- RELATED TO THE REAL
ID- IMPLEMENTATION AT DMV-
SPECIFICALLY A REVERSION OF
TWENTY FOUR MILLION GENERAL FUND
AND TWENTY ONE TWENTY TWO AND
TWENTY TO TWENTY THREE DOLLARS.
AND A DECREASE OF SIXTY NINE
MILLION. IN TWENTY THREE TWENTY
FOUR AT THIS RELATED TO THE-
FEDERAL DEPARTMENT OF HOMELAND
SECURITY SHIFT- IN THE RELAY D.
ENFORCEMENT DATE. FROM MAY THIRD
OF THIS YEAR TO MAY SEVENTH
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE IT HAS A LOT
MORE TIME FOR US TO. MEET THE
REAL ID DEMAND- THE FUNDING WAS
INITIALLY PROVIDED FOR- STAFFING
UP DMV FIELD OFFICES AROUND THE
STATE THERE'S A HUNDRED SEVENTY
FEEL DMV FIELD OFFICES- IT WAS.
TO STAFF UP TO MEET- SEARCH AB
ONE POINT WE'RE PROJECTING-
BETWEEN AN AVERAGE OF BETWEEN
500-100-0800 THOUSAND PER MONTH.
AND UP TO ONE POINT TWO MILLION
AS WE APPROACH THAT DEADLINE-
OUT OF THE TWENTY SEVEN MILLION
CALIFORNIANS ORIGINALLY
PROJECTED TO CONVERT TO APPLY
FOR ORIGINAL REALLY D. FIFTEEN
POINT SIX MILLION HAVE DONE SO.
SINCE DRIVER LICENSE RENEWALS
ARE A FIVE YEAR CYCLE MOST
CALIFORNIANS HAVE HAD A CHANCE
TO VISIT A FIELD OFFICE TO GET A
REAL ID SINCE THE ENVY STARTED
ISSUING. REAL ID IS IN TWENTY
EIGHTEEN- EVER DANTE IS
CURRENTLY PROVIDING TWO HUNDRED
THOUSAND REALITIES A MONTH- AND
THE MAJORITY OF THOSE ARE ON
CYCLE RENEWALS. MEAN THEY'RE
COMING IN- AS THEIR LICENSE
EXPIRES. RATHER THAN COMING IN
OFF CYCLE. THE POSITIONS
PROVIDED FOR WHERE TO MEET THAT
DEMAND- AND IT'S NOT
MATERIALIZING. WE DON'T BELIEVE
THAT PULLING BACK THE RESOURCES
WILL RESULT IN SIGNIFICANT
IMPACTS. IN MEETING THE RELAY
TEAM MANDATE DUE TO THE FACT
THAT THE FEDERAL EXTENSION-
ALLOWS EVEN MORE CALIFORNIA'S TO
COME IN ON THEIR CYCLE- TO RENEW
- HOWEVER ANY TIME THE
DEPARTMENT FACES A REDUCTION IN
THE FIELD OFFICE STAFF THERE
COULD BE IMPACTS- TO WAIT TIMES
HOWEVER WILL CLOSELY MONITOR.
THIS THROUGHOUT THE YEAR INDIAN
V. WILL CONTINUE ITS EFFORTS TO
INNOVATE AND MODERNIZE-
EXISTENCE SINCE TWENTY EIGHTEEN.
AVOIDED CUSTOMERS MORE MORE
OPTIONS TO PROCESS TRANSACTIONS
OUTSIDE OF THIS IN A FIELD
OFFICE SUCH AS- THE VIRTUAL
FIELD OFFICE IN THE BUILDING TO
UPLOAD DOCUMENTS AMONG OTHERS-
IT'S ALSO IMPORTANT TO NOTE
THAT. DMV WILL NOT BE LAYING
OFF- THE MOTOR VEHICLE
REPRESENTATIVES RATHER THROUGH
NATURAL ATTRITION- AND WITH ITS
REMAINING GENERAL FUND AND ITS
BUDGET WILL SLOWLY UP. THE BACK
FILLED WITH NVA POSITIONS- FOR
ITS FIELD OFFICE STAFF. THE
SECOND- THE MOTOR VEHICLE
ACCOUNT. I'LL JUST BRIEFLY TOUCH
ON THAT- IT IS IN A STRUCTURAL
DEFICIT. THE MOTOR VEHICLE
ACCOUNT IS FUNDED PRIMARILY BY
THE SIXTY FIVE DOLLAR
REGISTRATION FEE AND A THIRTY
DOLLAR CHP FEE. THAT IS PAID
EACH YEAR ON YOUR VEHICLE
REGISTRATION RENEWAL- COMPARED
TO GOVERNOR'S THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET FORECAST REVENUES
PROJECTED TO BE LOWER BY THREE
HUNDRED FIFTY EIGHT MILLION- IN
THE SIX YEAR PERIOD BETWEEN
TWENTY TO TWENTY THREE AND
TWENTY SEVEN TWENTY EIGHT. PART
OF THAT- ESTIMATED DECREASE IS
RELATED TO THE REAL ID- THAT I
JUST MENTIONED. PEOPLE WILL NOT
BECOMING AN OFF CYCLE AND SO IT
CANNOT BE COUNTED AS- EXPECTED
ADDITIONAL REVENUE AND THAT
ACCOUNTS FOR FIFTY THREE MILLION
OF THAT THREE FIFTY EIGHT
DECREASE. FURTHERMORE
EXPENDITURES ARE FORECASTED
INCREASE OVER THAT SAME SIX YEAR
PERIOD- BY NET TOTAL OF SEVENTY
FIVE MILLION COMPARED TO BUDGET
YEAR- FOR A ONE HUNDRED TWENTY
EIGHT MILLION INCREASES EXPECTED
IN TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE.
MAINLY ATTRIBUTED TO INCREASES
FORECASTED INCREASES IN EMPLOYEE
COMPENSATION AND RETIREMENT
CONTRIBUTIONS- POOPING ON V. BUT
MARY VISION- PROPOSES FOUR POINT
FIVE MILLION FOURTEEN V. TO PLAN
INITIATE AND I. T. PROJECT
RELATED TO AB SEVEN NINETY SIX
WHICH WAS FOR MOTOR VOTER- THIS
PROJECT WILL. CAPTURE VOTER
INFORMATION OFFICE INCOMPLETE
DMV TRANSACTIONS AND SEND IT
OVER TO SECRETARY OF STATE-
THERE IT INCLUDES THIRTY SIX
MILLION AND WE APPROPRIATIONS
ONE IS FOR THE DIGITAL
EXPERIENCE PLATFORM PROJECT OR
DXP PROJECT. WHICH IS A
COMPREHENSIVE REPLACEMENT OF
DMV'S IT SYSTEMS- THIS IS ONE OF
THOSE MODERNIZATION EFFORTS THAT
WILL MAKE THE ENVY MORE
EFFICIENT- SIX POINT SIX IS
RELATED TO A COMMERCIAL DRIVER'S
LICENSE INFORMATION SYSTEM-
WHICH WILL RETURN A FEDERAL
REQUIREMENT THAT. REQUIRES US TO
SHARE DATA RELATED TO COMMERCIAL
DRIVERS WITH OTHER STATES. NEXT
IS A- TRAILER BILL RELATED TO
THE MOBILE DRIVER'S LICENSES-
THERE WAS A CAP ESTABLISHED IN
STATUTE- CAPPING THE POPULATION
THAT COULD BE USED TO TEST. THE
APP- THAT DMV'S DEVELOPING AT
POINT 5% OF LICENSED DRIVERS THE
PROPOSAL IS TO INCREASE THAT 25%
TO GIVE US A MORE MEANINGFUL-
TESTING OF THAT APP. AND FINALLY
THE MAYOR VISION INCLUDES- AN
INCREMENTAL FIVE POINT NINE
MILLION TO REPEAT THE
CONSTRUCTION PHASE OF THE DELANO
FIELD OFFICE REPLACEMENT
PROJECT. SPECIFICALLY ELEVEN
POINT FOUR MILLION GENERAL FUND
WOULD BE REVERTED. AND A NEW NEW
FUNDING OF SEVENTEEN POINT THREE
AND LEASE REVENUE BONDS PROVIDED
FOR THAT PROJECT. HAPPY TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. OKAY WE HAVE THE-
DEPARTMENT YEAH THAT LAYS OWES
OFFICE PLEASE THANK YOU GOOD
AFTERNOON RACHEL EHLERS FROM THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE
IT'S OKAY WITH YOU MADAM SHALL
MAKE SOME VERY BRIEF HIGH LEVEL
OVERARCHING COMMENTS ABOUT THE
OVERALL STRUCTURE THE BUDGET TO
REALLY SET THE CONTEXT FOR THE
REST OF MY COLLEAGUES YOU'LL
HEAR FROM IN YOUR SUBSEQUENT
PANELS- REALLY. AS A FRAMING
COMMENT WE WANT TO EMPHASIZE TO
YOU THAT WE DO HAVE SOME
CONCERNS ABOUT THE OVERALL
STRUCTURE OF THE GOVERNORS MAY
REVISION IN PARTICULAR WELL
BASED ON OUR REVENUE FORECAST WE
FEEL THAT THE GOVERNOR'S
REVENUES ARE ARE PRETTY
OPTIMISTIC WE THINK THERE'S A
LOT OF DOWNSIDE RISK.
SPECIFICALLY ARE REVENUES ACROSS
THE THREE YEAR BUDGET WINDOW ARE
ELEVEN BILLION DOLLARS LESS THAN
THE GOVERNOR'S. AND WE'RE
CONCERNED THAT ADOPTING THE
GOVERNOR'S OVERALL APPROACH WILL
SET YOU UP FOR SOME REALLY
POTENTIALLY VERY DIFFICULT
DECISIONS HAVE BEEN THE COMING
YEAR BOTH NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET BUT
POTENTIALLY EVEN IN THE MIDDLE
OF THIS YEAR IF YOU HAVE TO COME
IN AND MAKE DEEPER REDUCTIONS IF
THE REVENUES DON'T MATERIALIZE.
AT THAT POINT YOU MAY HAVE LOST
SOME OF THE OPPORTUNITIES THAT
YOU HAVE RIGHT NOW AND THEN IT
IS GOING TO BE EASY NONE OF
THESE CHOICES ARE ARE EASY- BUT
IT IS EASIER TO. REDUCE ONE TIME
SPENDING AS COMPARED TO ONGOING
SPENDING AND TO AVOID NEW
SPENDING RATHER THAN KIND OF
TRYING TO CLAW BACK SPENDING
ONCE IT'S BEEN ALLOCATED. SO AS
A RESULT I THINK. OUR OVER
ARCHING MESSAGE IS. TRYING TO
IDENTIFY MORE SOLUTIONS THAN THE
GOVERNOR DOES TO AVOID SETTING
UP THOSE HARD DECISIONS. AND ONE
OF THE THINGS YOU CAN DO. TO
THAT TO THAT END IS NOT TO
APPROVED BRAND NEW SPENDING
PROPOSALS BEFORE YOU. SO I THINK
YOU'LL HEAR FROM MY COLLEAGUES
OUR OVER ARCHING MESSAGES. TO
REJECT WITHOUT PREJUDICE. SOME
OF THE NEWS MOST OF THE NEW
SPENDING PROPOSALS THAT ARE
COMING BEFORE YOU BOTH IN
JANUARY AND IN THE MAY REVISION-
THERE MAY BE SOME EXCEPTIONS IN
PARTICULAR AROUND. HEALTH AND
SAFETY CONCERNS THAT YOU REALLY
MAY WANT TO CONSIDER AND WE
THINK WHICH WOULD MERIT HIGHER
CONSIDERATION. BUT OTHERWISE
REALLY TRY TO AVOID MAKING YOUR
PROBLEM WORSE AT THIS POINT-
AGAIN NOT EASY BUT EASIER THAN
SOME OF THE OTHER CHOICES YOU
MAY FACE. SO WITH THAT I WILL
TURN IT OVER TO MY COLLEAGUE TO
TALK SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THE
TRANSPORTATION PROPOSALS. GET
OUT MADAM CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF
THE COMMITTEE FRANK MENACE AT
THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE. WHEN IT COMES TO
TRANSPORTATION ISSUES IN THE
GOVERNOR'S MAY REVISION WE HAVE-
THREE COMMENTS TO RELATED TO
PROPOSALS AND ONE OVER ARCHING
COMMENT- WHEN IT COMES TO THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL TO SHIFT-
GENERAL FUND DOLLARS UNDER FIFTY
MILLION TO THE STATE HIGHWAY
COUNTY SUPPORT THE PORT AND
FREIGHT. INFRASTRUCTURE PROGRAM.
WE FIND THAT THIS PROPOSAL
MERITS CONSIDERATION HOWEVER-
THERE ARE TRADE OFFS- APPROVING
THE SHIP WOULD ALLOW THE STATE
TO FIND- THE SAME NUMBER OF PORT
AND FREIGHT INFRASTRUCTURE
PROJECTS AT ORIGINALLY INTENDED
HOWEVER THIS TRADE OFF IS THAT.
THAT'S LESS FUNDING THAT'S GOING
TOWARDS GENERAL STATE HIGHWAY
MAINTENANCE EVERY LITTLE BIT
REHABILITATION PROJECTS HOWEVER.
THAT SHIP WOULD GO TOWARDS. ROAD
IMPROVEMENTS AND HIGHWAY
IMPROVEMENTS ADJACENT TO PORT SO
THAT'S THE TRADE OFF THEIR- WHEN
IT COMES TO THE GOVERNOR'S
GENERAL FUND REDUCTION FOR THE
DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
PROVE THIS PROPOSAL. WE FIND
THAT THE- DECREASE WORKLOAD AND
REDUCTION- ALIGNS WITH THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT SHIFTING OF
REAL ID REQUIREMENTS SO WE FIND
THAT THAT PRODUCTION- AND DOES
HAVE MERIT. AND FINALLY WE NOTE
THAT- THE LEGISLATURE AND THE
SUB COMMITTEE IN PARTICULAR HAS
HAD INTEREST IN PROVIDING.
FISCAL RELIEF TO TRANSIT
AGENCIES THAT ARE FACING
OPERATIONAL FUNDING SHORTFALLS
CURRENTLY IN THE ADMINISTRATION
DOES NOT HAVE A PROPOSAL SO- WE
WOULD RECOMMEND THAT THE
COMMITTEE ASKED THE-
ADMINISTRATION ON HOW IT INTENDS
TO SUPPORT TRANSIT AGENCIES IN
THE ABSENCE OF HAVING A
PROPOSAL. AND FOR THE
LEGISLATURE TO BEGIN ITS
NEGOTIATES DISCUSSIONS ON A
POTENTIAL PROPOSAL- IF IT-
CHOOSES TO PROVIDE FUNDING OR
SHORT TERM RELIEF THE TRANSIT
AGENCIES. HAPPY TO TAKE ANY
QUESTIONS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
WE WILL NOW MOVE TO QUESTIONS
AND COMMENTS FROM THE MEMBERS.
CENTERS ANY QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS- OKAY OKAY GREAT- I
HAVE SOME QUESTIONS. FOR CAL
STUFF- C. YES SEGUEING FROM THE
LAST COMMENT FOR MORE LA O. WHY
DID THE ADMINISTRATION NOT PUT
FORWARD A PROPOSAL FOR A
TRANSIT. OPERATIONAL RELIEF IF
YOU CAN. THE DRESS THAT PLEASE.
EVERYWHERE I GO THAT'S THE ISSUE
A BIG ISSUE THAT COMES UP SO.
WHILE WAITING FOR THE ANSWER.
GOOD AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR AND
MEMBERS CARLOS QUANT. DEPUTY
SECRETARY FOR BUDGET IN FISCAL
POLICY IT ACOSTA. SO JUST LIKE
THE LEGISLATURE WE'RE REALLY
LEARNING ABOUT THE COMPLEXITIES
OF THE CHALLENGES THAT THE
TRANSIT OPERATORS ARE FACING.
AND YOU KNOW WE HELD SOME
INFORMATIVE LISTENING SESSIONS
LAST WEEK WITH A NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA AND SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA. TRANSIT OPERATORS-
LABOR ORGANIZATIONS AND OTHER
STAKEHOLDERS- AND ADMINISTRATORS
AND CAN PROVIDE ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION ABOUT THE LISTENING
SESSIONS BUT- WE HOPE TO
CONTINUE OUR CONVERSATIONS WITH
THE LEGISLATURE AND STAKEHOLDERS
TO REALLY DEVELOP A- FAITH A
SUSTAINABLE SOLUTION TO THE INTO
THE CHALLENGES THAT TRANSIT
OPERATORS ARE FACING. OKAY THANK
YOU. YES OF THE LISTENING
SESSIONS WERE VERY VALUABLE AND-
WE CONTINUE TO SEE YOU KNOW
OPPORTUNITIES ON THAT THAT COULD
EMERGE FROM THOSE- AS PART OF
THE OVERALL OVERALL BUDGET
DISCUSSIONS- THERE THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF THOSE STATUTORY- AB
RELIEF PROVISIONS THAT AGENCIES
ARE KEPT ARE REQUESTING AS WELL
AS- AS WELL AS OPPORTUNITIES TO
BE FLEXIBLE IN THE WAY SOME OF
THE FUNDING CAN BE SPENT. AND SO
WE HEARD A NUMBER OF GOOD IDEAS
THERE BUT THEY NEED TO BE
CONSIDERED IN THE CONTEXT OF THE
OVERALL. BUDGET CONVERSATION
TRANSPORTATION FUNDING. OKAY
IT'S QUESTION YES YES SIR. SO
DURING THE LISTENING SESSIONS-
OKAY AMY I THINK PART OF THE
PROBLEMS WHO. IF WE'RE GOING TO
BAIL OUT WE NEED TO KNOW THAT
THE PROBLEM IS GOING TO BE
FIXED. SO WERE THEY HAVING
DISCUSSIONS ABOUT HOW THEY'RE
GOING TO SPECIFICS THE SPECIFIC
PROBLEMS THAT ARE CAUSING THIS
IN THE FIRST PLACE. BEFORE WE
GET A NUMBER THAT SAYS IF YOU
GIVE US THIS MUCH AMOUNT OF
MONEY WE'RE GONNA FIX THE
PROBLEM AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO
GO ON IN WILL BE SUCCESSFUL IN
THE FUTURE. THAT'S THE I THINK
THAT'S THE TOUGH PART FOR US IS
. YES YES WHAT WE CONTINUE TO
SEE- DIFFERENT NEEDS AND
DIFFERENT PARTS OF THE STATE AND
IN DIFFERENT WITH DIFFERENT
AGENCIES AND SO THAT'S THIS IS
PART OF THE CHALLENGES THAT-
SOME AGENCIES ARE REALLY HELPED
BY HAVING- HAVING THEIR CAPITAL-
THAT THEIR THEIR CAPITAL NEEDS
MET SO THAT THEY CAN BE A
STRONGER THERE COMMENCED
OPERATIONS OTHERS VERY MUCH NEED
OPERATING FUNDING IN ORDER TO
MAKE IT THROUGH- THEY'RE ON.
DIFFERENT SOLUTIONS FOR
DIFFERENT AGENCIES AND THAT'S A
PART OF THE PART OF THE
CHALLENGE I THINK IN THERE. SO
THAT THE IDEAS THAT ARE OUT
THERE IS JUST A VARIETY OF
NEEDS- IN HOLLYWOOD THE MATTER.
I THINK THE BIGGEST NEED IS TO
INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE
THAT ARE ACTUALLY GOING TO USE
IT. GOING INTO THE FUTURE WHICH
MEANS WE HAVE TO ALLEVIATE THEIR
CONCERNS GERMANS WE HAVE TO
ADDRESS IT LOSE OPERATIONAL
ISSUES. THAT ARE CAUSING THOSE
CONCERNS. YES WE ALSO HEARD. A
GOOD DEAL ABOUT SAFETY AND
SECURITY AND THEY CONCERNS THERE
IN TERMS OF- DRAWN BACK
RIDERSHIP AND SO- YOU KNOW AS AS
HAS BEEN NOTED IN THIS COMMITTEE
BEFORE- I THINK- THE SAFETY AND
SECURITY ISSUES ARE PART OF THE
SOLUTION AS WELL. THANK YOU. I
REALLY APPRECIATE THAT YOU
YOU'RE ACTUALLY HAVING THESE
LISTENING SESSIONS AND- I'VE
BEEN LISTENING TO A LOT OF- ALSO
TRANSIT AGENCIES AND- ABOUT.
BOTH THE CAPITAL AND THE ON.
TRANSIT THE OPERATIONS SIDE OF
IT SO. I THINK THERE'S SOME. A
BASIC UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE'S
A BIG PROBLEM. IT'S GOING TO HIT
SOME AREAS QUICKLY- MANY AREAS
IT WON'T HIT UNTIL MAYBE NEXT
YEAR. OR START HITTING THEM
UNTIL NEXT YEAR. BUT I HATE TO
SEE OURSELVES KNOWING THAT IT'S
COMING. THAT WE'RE GOING TO BE
REACTIVE TO AN EMERGENCY IN ONE
AREA OR ANOTHER SO IT SEEMS
LIKE. AT THE VERY LEAST WE NEED
TO COME UP WITH THOSE WHO.
BELIEVE AND THEY NEED TO SHOW US
OF COURSE THAT IT'S IMMINENT
LIKE IT'S THIS YEAR AND NOT YOU
KNOW IN A YEAR OR TWO YEARS. AND
I REALLY HAVE A LOT OF RESPECT
FOR THOSE WHO ARE BEING. REALLY
FORTHRIGHT WITH THE SAME OKAY
WE'RE NOT GONNA NEED IT RIGHT
NOW BUT- BOY IT'S GONNA COME
FAST IN THE NEXT YEAR. AND WE
JUST WANT TO BE READY SO I HATE
FOR US TO SEE THAT YOU SEE IT
COME YOU SEE IT COME IN AT LEAST
A PIECE OF IT. AND THEN WE
DON'T. HAVE ANYTHING IN PLACE
BEFORE. IT HURTS THAT PARTICULAR
COMMUNITY. YEAH I WOULD-
EMPHASIZE YOU KNOW WANT ONE
THING WHICH IS THE EVEN IF I'M
THE IMPACT IS NOT IN THIS BUDGET
YEAR THAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
NOW BUT IN THE PRE THE PRICE THE
NEXT ONE- MANY OF THE HIRING HIM
THAT LABOR DECISIONS ARE GONNA
BE MADE MIDWAY THROUGH THIS
COMING YEAR- AND SO- DECISIONS
AROUND TO THE LEVEL OF HIRING
THEY CAN DO AND WHAT BUDGET
SUPPORT THEY HAVE FOR THE
FOLLOWING YEAR. WILL BE RELEVANT
WITHIN THE NEXT SIX TO NINE
MONTHS AND THAT'S ONE OF THE
THINGS WE HEARD IN THE IN THE
HIGH HEARINGS AS WELL- WELL. WE
GREATLY BIRDS WE NEED WE NEED-
WE NEED MOVE ON THIS WE NEED TO
INCLUDE IT- WE NEED TO BE THERE
IN SUPPORT OF OUR COMMUNITIES-
AND AT THE SAME TIME I THINK
HAVE AN ONGOING DISCUSSION AS TO
WHAT WE DO. PASSED YOU KNOW ONE
YEAR OR PASSED TWO YEARS WHAT WE
GONNA DO ABOUT THIS IS THE STATE
GOING TO TAKE UP. A GREATER ROLE
IN TRANSIT OPERATIONS WE WERE
GONNA LEAVE IT. AT THE AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL PRIMARY AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL THAT'S OKAY TOO BUT THEN
HOW DO WE ADDRESS. THE FINANCES
AND HOW DO THEY ADDRESS IT ALSO
IN MY CONVERSATIONS. PUSH BACK
AND SAY OKAY WHAT ARE YOU GONNA
DO. THAT'S GOING TO GIVE US THE-
CONFIDENCE THAT WE'RE NOT YOU'RE
NOT JUST ASKING FOR MORE MONEY
NOW AND THEN. LET'S WAIT UNTIL
NEXT YEAR AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.
WE EXPECT MORE. AND I THINK THE
CONVERSATIONS THAT BEEN VERY
POSITIVE. AS FAR AS FAR AS THE
ONES I'VE HAD VERY POSITIVE.
VERY DAY. VERY TO- LOOK AT NEW
IDEAS LOOK AT DIFFERENT WAYS OF.
RECRUITING AND APPEALING TO MORE
. WRITERS- WE JUST WE HAVE TO
TAKE WHAT THEY'RE SAYING AND
REALLY DO SOMETHING WITH THAT IN
A VERY SPECIFIC CONCRETE
PROPOSALS SO. WE REALLY NEED
THAT- RESPONSE FROM FROM THE
ADMINISTRATION. AND IF ANYTHING
ELSE. NOPE ABOUT A COUPLE THINGS
SURE. A QUESTION ABOUT THE POOR
TO GOOD MOVEMENT IN THE SHIFT OF
MONEY INTO HIGHWAY AND HAVING
THE HIGHWAY FUNDS PAY FOR. YEAH
SO. BUT WHAT KIND OF PROJECTS I
THINK YOU TOUCH ON A LITTLE BIT
- BECAUSE EVERY DOLLAR THAT WE
SHIFT INTO THE PORTS FROM THE
HIGHWAY FUND MEANS LESS MONEY
THAT'S BEING SPENT ON HIGHWAYS-
WHICH I UNDERSTAND IS- OF. OF I
THINK. THE DREAM THAT WE CAN
STOP SPENDING MONEY ON HIGHWAYS.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY WHEN WE'RE
MOVING STUFF FROM THE PORTS ONCE
IT LEAVES THE PORT AREA SAY OUT
OF ST PETER OR- OR WHATEVER AND-
ONCE IT'S GOING OUT TO THE
INLAND EMPIRE TO DELIVER GOODS
TO SOME OF THE WAREHOUSES THAT
ARE OUT THERE. AND BEYOND THAT
WE STILL NEED ROADS WE STILL
NEED FREEWAYS. AND IT BECAUSE WE
DON'T HAVE THE ROADS OUT THERE
TO HANDLE THAT CAPACITY- THEY'RE
ALL GOING TO BE SITTING ON THE
SIXTY FREEWAY IN THE TEN FREEWAY
WAITING TO TRY. TO GET OUT INTO
THE INLAND EMPIRE WHICH WILL
TAKE A LONG TIME AND- SO THAT IN
ITSELF REPRESENTS A BACK UP- OF
GOODS AND MOVEMENT OF THOSE
GOODS. SO IF WE'RE SHIFTING A
HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION DOLLARS
INTO. THE. PORTS FROM THE
HIGHWAY FUND HOW WE- HOW WE TO
ADDRESS THE OTHER. PART OF THE
HIGHWAYS THAT ARE NEEDED FOR
THIS. THANK YOU FOR THE QUESTION
SENATOR. SO I WOULD JUST NOTE
THAT- THE FUNDING THAT WE'RE
SHIFTING FROM STATE HIGHWAY
COUNTY STILL GOING TO BE SPENT
ON ROADWAY IMPROVEMENTS IN GRADE
SEPARATIONS THAT BENEFITS PORTS.
AND GOODS MOVEMENT
INFRASTRUCTURE SO IT'S REALLY WE
CATEGORIZE IT MORE AS A
PRIORITIZATION OF- OF THE STATE
HIGHWAY ACCOUNT DOLLARS TO THE
INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WAS KIND OF
BENEFITING THE PORTS. JUST FOR
THIS THE FOR THE HUNDRED FIFTY
MILLION DOLLARS SO IT'S NOT.
IT'S NOT A DIFFERENT TYPE OF
EXPENDITURE THAT WOULD NORMALLY
BE SPENT OUT OF THE STATE
HIGHWAY ACCOUNT. K. I THINK NHÀ
I THINK THE REST OF IT I THINK
YOU GUYS HAVE COVERED. MOST OF
IT ADEQUATELY. SO THANK YOU FOR.
I THINK WE ARE FROM THE SENATORS
ON A RECENT- QUESTION- CAN YOU
PROVIDE US AN UPDATE ON THE SHOP
SHOP. THE SHOP- HOW'S THE
DEPARTMENT INCORPORATING THE
ADDITIONAL FEDERAL HIGHWAY
FUNDING AND THE GOVERNOR'S
PROPOSED FRIENDSHIPS FROM THE
GENERAL FUND TO THE STATE
HIGHWAY ACCOUNT. AT THE- THANK
YOU SENATOR STEPHEN CHECK WITH
CALTRANS- WITH REGARDS TO- THE
DIGITAL FEDERAL FUNDING WE
RECEIVED IN THE SHOP- WE HAVE TO
DATE INCORPORATED ADDITIONAL
FEDERAL FUNDS TO AN AMENDMENTS
TO PROJECTS IN THE SHOP. LAST
FISCAL YEAR WE UTILIZE ALL THE
FEDERAL FUNDING THAT WAS
AVAILABLE. AND WERE ABLE TO
CAPTURE AN ADDITIONAL SIX
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MILLION
DOLLARS IN FEDERAL FUNDS THROUGH
A PROCESS CALLED AUGUST
REDISTRIBUTION WHERE AT THE
NATIONAL LEVEL THEY REDISTRIBUTE
UNUSED FUNDS. I'M IN THE CURRENT
FISCAL YEAR WE'VE AMENDED MORE
THAN ONE POINT TWO BILLION
DOLLARS INTO THE SHOP TO TAKE
ADVANTAGE OF THESE FEDERAL FUNDS
AND AT THE CTC MEETING IN SAN
FRANCISCO ON GOING RIGHT NOW-
THE DEPARTMENT IS. HIS INTO A
MAN'S AN ADDITIONAL FOUR HUNDRED
BILLION DOLLARS IN THE CURRENT
YEAR TO HANDLE SOME- INCREASE
STORM DAMAGE- WITH REGARDS TO
THE PROPOSED TO FIND SHIFTS AT
THE PROCESS OF INCORPORATING-
THAT INTO THE SHOP IS REALLY
QUITE CLEAR RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE
NOW IT'S MAKING OUR FIVE YEAR
ESTIMATE OF FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR
THE SHOP. THAT ESTIMATE IS
REQUIRED BY LAW TO BE DONE EVERY
TWO YEARS AND IT MUST BE BASED
ON CURRENT LAW. SO WHAT WE WILL
DO IS WHEN THE BUDGET IS ADOPTED
WE WILL TAKE WHATEVER SOLUTION.
IS THERE AND WE WILL INCORPORATE
THAT INTO OUR PROJECTED FUNDING
FOR THE SHOP- VISIT ONE TIME RE
PRIORITIZATION OF THAT FUNDING
AS WAS ADDRESSED BY- BY A CAST
OF STAFF- IT'S REALLY GONNA HELP
TO MAINTAIN ACTIVE
TRANSPORTATION. CLIMATE
ADAPTATION AND GOODS MOVEMENT IN
THE SHORT TERM. IN REALLY THESE
ARE THE KIND OF THE SAME TYPES
OF PROJECTS WE MIGHT OTHERWISE
PROGRAM IN THE SHOP. IT SHOULD
BE NOTED THAT WITH THESE
INCREASED AGE OF FUNDING- WE ARE
REALLY EXPANDING OUR INVESTMENTS
IN THESE AREAS WERE PLANNING
DOCUMENTS SUCH AS THE STATE
HIGHWAY SYSTEM AND FROM PLANNED-
SO IT IT'S KIND OF A- LIKE A
RETIRED PHYSICIAN AND MOVING
FORWARD TO RIGHT NOW AS OPPOSED
TO BEING PROGRAM LATER ON. THANK
YOU AND- YOU MENTIONED THE
WINTER STORMS. CAN YOU GIVE AN
ESTIMATE OF THE DAMAGES THAT
WERE INCURRED ON STATE HIGHWAY.
YES THAT'S IT KIND OF A TWO PART
ANSWER TO THE QUESTION THE FIRST
NEW EASIEST PAR IS TO TELL YOU
TO DATE. THE COSTS THAT WE
RECORD AND THAT'S ABOUT NINE
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS TO DATE
- RESPECT THIS NUMBER TO GO UP
WE STILL HAVE I THINK FIVE ROAD
CLOSURES DUE TO STORM DAMAGE
AND- EVEN SNOW REMOVAL AT THIS
POINT- SO THAT'S GOING TO
CONTINUE TO RISE. AND WE'RE
GOING TO SEE AN EVEN BIGGER
INCREASE AS A RESULT OF SNOW
MELT. RIGHT SO IT'S GONNA IT'S
GONNA CAUSE SOME DAMAGE ON THE
HIGHWAYS TO SO. EASILY GOING TO
SURPASS A BILLION DOLLARS JUST
ON THE STATE HIGHWAY SYSTEM- BUT
IT CAN GIVE YOU A COMPLETE
ESTIMATE BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW
WHAT'S BUT YET TO COME- MUCH OF
THAT WORK IS REIMBURSABLE FROM
THE FEDERAL HIGHWAY
ADMINISTRATION- IN A LITTLE BIT
FROM FEMA- BUT IT'S VERY
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT. THE
ANNUAL BUDGET FOR FEDERAL
EMERGENCY RELIEF NATIONALLY IS
ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. SO
THAT'S HOW MUCH THEY HAD THIS TO
SPLIT AMONGST THE STATE'S THE
COVER ER. WHAT USUALLY HAPPENS
IS EVERY TWO OR THREE YEARS
CONGRESS WILL. PASS A- AN
AUGMENTATION TO THAT USUALLY IN
THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS WHEN
SOMETHING BIG HAPPENS LIKE.
MASSIVE STORMS- WE'VE PUT IN A
REQUEST FOR CALIFORNIA WE HOPE
THAT CONGRESS WILL TAKE IT UP
AND PASS A- A- SUPPLEMENT. BUT
IN THE MEANTIME. WE SPEND OUR
OUR DOLLARS AND WAIT FOR FEDERAL
REIMBURSEMENT- THEN THERE'S THE
SECOND PART IS HARDER TO ANSWER
IN THAT IS. THE INCIPIENT DAMAGE
IN THE ACCELERATED M.
DEGRADATION OF OUR HIGHWAY
SYSTEM FROM ALL THIS RAIN WE'VE
HAD. SO THE FEDERAL YOUR MONEY
IS REALLY HEY THIS ROAD WASHED
OUT OR THIS ROADS FLOODED ROADS
BRIDGES DAMAGED. BUT WHEN WE
HAVE WIDE SPREAD DIFFUSE DAMAGE
TO THE ROADS LIKE WE SEEN IF
YOU'VE BEEN DRIVING ON THEM YOU
KNOW INCREASE POTHOLES AND
PAVEMENT THAT WE- MIGHT OF-
THOUGHT WOULD LAST FIVE MORE
YEARS NOW. NEEDS ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY. SO THAT IS NOT JUST
A STATE PROBLEM IT'S A LOCAL
PROBLEM TOO. BUT THAT'S GONNA
TAKE HONESTLY YEARS TO ASSESS
THE DAMAGE TO SEE WHAT. THE WHAT
HAS REALLY ACCELERATED IN YEARS
TO ADDRESS SO THAT'S GOING TO BE
AN ONGOING BURDEN. I DON'T THINK
WE COULD PUT A NUMBER ON IT
CERTAINLY NOT NOW AND WE MAY NOT
EVER BE ABLE TO BUT WE ARE
SEEING THAT XCELERATED IMAGE.
AND IT JUST SAY THAT'S- PICKED
UP BY THE LOCAL. WELL IT WOULD
BE A STATE AND LOCAL SO LOCAL
ROADS RIGHT THEY HAVE THE SAME
PROBLEMS THAT WE DO ON THE
HIGHWAYS SO IT'S NOT JUST A
PROBLEM FOR US IT WILL BE A
PROBLEM FOR THEM AS WELL AND
THAT'S GOING TO BE AN ONGOING
BURDEN FOR A FEW YEARS. OKAY
THANK YOU VERY MUCH STRUCK. THE
M. B. THE MOTOR VOTER OKAY
QUESTION ALL RIGHT WE'LL MOVE ON
TO DMB OKAY SO I DIDN'T GO AHEAD
HELLO OKAY- SO IS THERE EVERY
FROM THE DMV. HERE TO ANSWER
QUESTIONS. OKAY GOOD. THANK YOU
FOR BEING HERE- SO. THE MOTOR
VOTER PROGRAM WHICH STARTED
FEARS BACK IN ITS HAVE SOME
ISSUES. WITH THAT DOUBLE
REGISTRATIONS AND- AND THINGS
LIKE THAT NOW WE'RE LOOK TALK
ABOUT EXPANDING IT. A LITTLE BIT
MORE- AS THE DMV TAKEN ANY STEPS
TO- DECREASE THE AMOUNT OF-
DISCREPANCIES NOT JUST NASSAR
DISCREPANCIES BUT- THEY'VE HAD
PEOPLE THAT HAVE. DIDN'T WANT TO
REGISTER AND THEY GET REGISTERED
ANYWAY WE DON'T HAVE MANDATORY
REGISTRATION FOR VOTING IN THIS
THIS COUNTRY I DON'T THINK- SO I
WAS. CURIOUS IF THEY'VE BEEN
ABLE TO TAKE ANY STEPS WHILE
THERE'S STREAMLINING THIS
PROCESS TO ENSURE THAT- THE
PEOPLE WHO SIGN UP- GET SIGNED
UP THE WAY THEY WANT TO BE
SIGNED UP. AND THE PEOPLE THAT
DON'T DON'T HAVE TO BE AND THAT
PEOPLE IN ELIGIBLE DON'T GET
SIGNED UP WHEN THEY SHOULDN'T BE
GETTING SIGNED UP- WHAT KIND OF
STEPS IS THE DMV TAKEN TO
ADDRESS THOSE ISSUES. CERTAINLY
SCOTT. DEPARTMENT OR VEHICLES.
STMP HAS CURRENTLY WORKING ON
ENSURING THAT WE HAVE ENOUGH
CLEAN DATA TO WORKING CLOSELY
WITH SECRETARY OF STATE
UNDERSTANDING OF HOW OUR DATA
DOES COULD TRANSFER FROM US TO
THEM- ULTIMATELY SECRETARY STATE
IS STILL THE OWNERSHIP OF THAT
WERE THE VEHICLE TO GET THAT
OVER TO THEM. WE'RE DEFINITELY
NOT. I'M IN CHARGE OF SAYING
HEY- YOU ARE ELIGIBLE TO VOTE OR
NOT ALL TO THE LOBBY TO CHECK
OUR RECORDS- THOROUGHLY
ESPECIALLY WITH ARE GOING TO
CLOSE OUT LIKE WHEN YOU'RE DOING
YOUR VEHICLE REGISTRATION OR
DRIVER'S LICENSE REGISTRATION-
WE WANNA MAKE SURE THAT YOUR-
AFFIDAVIT SIDE THAT YOU ARE WHO
YOU SAY YOU ARE. WERE ENSURING
THAT- EVEN IF YOU CAN'T MAKE THE
PAYMENT AT THAT MOMENT OF TIME
THAT DOESN'T PREVENT YOU FROM
GETTING HER INFORMATION TO SEND
OVER SECTOR STATE. AS WE
MODERNIZE THE DEPARTMENT AND AS
FOR CONTINUING TO GET OUT OF THE
OLD FIFTY SIX YEAR OLD SYSTEMS
TO GETTING INTO SOMETHING A LOT
MORE MODERNIZED. WE ARE MAKING
SURE THAT WE FOCUS ON THE DATA
THAT WE DO SEND THAT WERE BRING
GOOD PARTNERS IN STATE SERVICE
SAY YES THIS IS WHAT WE HAVE
THIS IS WHAT YOU HAVE TO IMAGINE
EVERY COULD AFFORD. THREE AND-
IN ONE OF MY- IS ALWAYS THAT. AS
WE- CONTINUE TO BURDEN DIFFERENT
AGENCIES WITH MORE MORE THINGS.
THAT THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO
ACCOMPLISH THE MISSION AT HAND
WHICH IS. GETTING PEOPLE THEIR
LICENSES REGISTERING THEIR
VEHICLES AND CORRECT THOSE THOSE
TYPE OF. THINGS SO- SO WE WANT
TO MAKE SURE THAT- NUMBER ONE
WE'RE WE'RE GIVEN THE RESOURCES
THAT YOU NEED. CORRECTIVE ABLE
ACCOMPLISH YOUR GOAL BUT AT THE
SAME TIME ENSURING THAT. WHAT WE
HAD ENVISIONED- WHERE WHAT WAS
ENVISIONED. WITH THE THESE TYPE
OF PROGRAMS IS CARRIED OUT AND
THAT THE RIGHT AGENCY IS
CARRYING IT OUT IF IT'S TOO
BURDENSOME THEN WE- SHOULD BE.
LOOKING AT ALTERNATIVES SO. AND
THAT'S BECAUSE WE MODERNIZE OUR
SYSTEMS AS WELL AS NEW BILLS
COME TOWARDS MAYBE IN OUR DESK
AS THEY GET PASSED AND WE LOOK
AT. HOW TO BRING ONE TO
IMPLEMENT THEM- WITH A NEW
MODERNIZE SYSTEM WE SHOULD BUILD
A DOT QUICKER TO THESE CHANGES
WE SHOULD BE ABLE TO. WORK
CLOSELY WITH MEMBERS TO SAY THIS
WILL BE SUCCESSFUL THIS IS HOW
MUCH DOLLARS WE NEED TO BE
SUCCESSFUL. THAT IS THE FUTURE
THE DMV. AND PART OF OUR
BUDGETING THIS YEAR IS HELP THE
THAT MINOR'S CORRECT CORRECT.
OKAY THANK YOU FIFTY SHADES THE
INFO. THANK YOU AND WITH. TO THE
REAL ID- TO SOMETHING THAT YOU
WERE YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT IS.
THERE'S THE REGULAR ONGOING
CYCLE OF EXPIRED ID'S AND
DRIVER'S LICENSE WHICH- IS
REALLY WHAT PULLS PEOPLE IN
RIGHT THEY HAVE TO. THE REAL ID
COULD BE PUT OFF COULD BE PUT
OFF BUT YOU CAN'T. PUT OFF THE
EXPIRATION OF YOUR ID OR YOUR
YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE. HOW DOES
THAT FIT IN. WITH ALSO DOING THE
REAL ID. THE OTHER WAS IF
THEY'RE COMING IN FOR THAT OUR
REGULAR BUSINESS AND THEN THE-
HOW MUCH OF THAT IS DONE.
THROUGH THAT PROCESS VERSUS
SOMEBODY JUST COMING IN FOR THE
REAL ID BECAUSE- THOSE ARE THE
ONES YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE. ARE
ABLE TO ACCESS THE REAL ID EVEN
IF THE DATE HAS MOVED. OUT TO
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE CORRECT YOU
YOU WANT TO HAVE THE CAPACITY TO
DO THAT RIGHT YOU AND MAINTAIN
THE CAPACITY TO DO THAT. AND NOT
SAY WELL SORRY WE'RE NOT DOING
REAL ID COME BACK IN TWO YEARS.
JUST SO. YOU KNOW HOW DO YOU
MAINTAIN. SUFFICIENT STAFF.
THERE'S NOT GONNA BE HARM EITHER
TO THE- REGULAR- DRIVER'S
LICENSE OR THE REAL ID. YES SO-
WHEN YOUR DRIVER'S LICENSE
RENEWAL COMES TO IN THE MAIL YOU
KNOW WE TRY TO HAVE IT PLASTERED
ALL OVER THE PLACE GO ONLINE
FIRST CANNELLA DO YOUR
APPLICATION AT HOME FIRST. AND
THEN GET PRE APPROVED FIRST AS
WELL YOU KNOW YOUR BIRTH
CERTIFICATE FIVE RESIDENCY WHAT
TIME. YOU'VE HAD A TIME THEN AT
THE NEXT THAT THEY RECOMMEND TO
THAT THE ACCEPTED SAY HEY WOULD
YOU LIKE TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT
WE WOULD SET UP AN APPOINTMENT
AND THE GOAL IS THAT WHEN YOU
COME INTO THE FIELD OFFICES THAT
YOU SPEND. ROUGHLY TWENTY TO
THIRTY MINUTES IN FRONT OF OUR
FIELD OFFICE FROM TIME TO GET
OUT OF YOUR DOOR TO THE TIME TO
COME AND TAKE A PICTURE IF YOU
HAVE TO DO ANYTHING ELSE BUT
EVERYTHING SHOULD BE TRY TO BE
DONE AHEAD OF TIME AT HOME.
SECURE POINT AS YOU'RE MANAGING
TRANSACTIONS AND WORKLOAD OF
THIRD COMING AND- WE'RE HOPING
THAT WE CAN REMOVE A LOT OF THAT
WORKLOAD AHEAD OF TIME FOR BEING
TAUGHT AT HOME WE'VE ALSO
ADDRESS THAT WOULDN'T BE FOR
INDIA FIELD OFFICES- THE
INDIVIDUALS WOULD TAKE. TWENTY
MINUTES TO DO THE TRANSACTION
WOULD CUT THAT HALF DOWN TO TEN
MINUTES- SO IT'S BEEN A LOT MORE
STREAMLINED A LOT MORE
EFFICIENT. MAKING SURE THAT
WOULD BE HIGHER REAL ID OF
INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE TRAINED NOT
TO JUST TO REALIZE THE WINDOW
YOU KNOW THEY CAN HANDLE ALL
TRANSACTIONS TO HELP THE FLOW OF
THE ENTIRE FIELD OFFICES. AND SO
WITH THIS PROPOSAL- FOR HOPING
AS MR MACEDO STATED EARLIER
THAT. WITH THE MODERNIZATION
THAT WE'VE DONE LOOKING AT HOW
WE CAN STREAMLINE TRANSACTIONS
MOVING MORE CUSTOMERS AND
CHANGING HUMAN BEHAVIOR TO GO
ONLINE OR TO A DIFFERENT SERVICE
CHANNEL. IN ADDITION ADDING TWO
MORE TRANSACTIONS I CALL CENTERS
SORT OUR KIOSKS. AND IN. DOING
THE BEST WE CAN'T ALSO. INFORM
CUSTOMERS THAT THEY DID COME AND
- YOU CAN SAY I WOULD LIKE TO DO
THIS. NOT A PROBLEM WE'LL TAKE
IT AND WE'LL TAKE OF IT. AND
ALSO BECAUSE OF REMINDING PAID
BACK TIME IF YOU EVER WANT TO DO
THIS. OF AGAIN JUST SO YOU KNOW
YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO COME TO FIELD
OFFICE YOU COULD TO WITH IT IN
A- OUT THERE ARE. ARE CHARLES.
SO I WAS HOPING CLOSELY. HOW THE
RELATED. COME IN AS MISTER
POTATO STATE EARLIER WHAT. ABOUT
OR THREE. THREE LADIES OF RIGHT
NOW. FILE BULLS MODERATE IN
TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR AND AS
WE BUILD TOWARDS TWENTY FOUR
TWENTY FIVE FISCAL YEAR WILL
REASSESS. SO HOW MANY ARE WE
MAY. YOU FEELS MEANT AT THE
MOMENT WE'VE DONE ROUGHLY
SIXTEEN MILLION REAL LADIES OF
THE MOMENT WERE. AS THE
DEADLINES NOW MOVED TWO OR THREE
TIMES STYLE I THINK FOR
ESTIMATED WE DO AROUND TWENTY
THREE TO TWENTY FOUR MILLION.
SORT THINKING OVER THE NEXT TWO
FISCAL YEARS IT COULD BE
ANYWHERE BETWEEN THREE TO FOUR
MILLION BE ALLOWED TO USE WILL
BE. NEEDED IT'S HARD TO TELL
BECAUSE THAT. MOST CALIFORNIA'S
GONNA WAIT TILL THE LAST SECOND
IF THEY ACTUALLY HAVE TO. OR
THEY WHICH IS A TRUE STATEMENT
IF YOU DO HAVE YOUR PASSPORT.
TECHNICALLY DON'T NEED A REAL ID
BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THAT DOWN
THE ROAD SOMEONE DOESN'T SAY
REALLY DON'T WANT TO USE MY
PASSPORT TO GO TO SAN DIEGO. I'D
RATHER JUST GET A REAL ID CAN
CHANGE FROM MONTH TO MONTH LAST
MONTH. YEAH OKAY GOOD YES THANK
YOU ON THANK YOU VERY MUCH- THE

IS AN OVERVIEW OF THE GOVERNORS
MAY REVISION PROPOSALS- MISTER
TOPPEN AND MR ELLAM. THANK YOU
CHAIR PATRICK TOPPING DEPARTMENT
FINANCE- THE BRIEF OVERVIEW OF
THE LIST OF THEIR MISSION
PROPOSALS IN THE LABOR AND
WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT SPACE- IN
ADDITION TO SOME TECHNICAL
ADJUSTMENTS TO MERRY MISSION
PROPOSES SEVERAL MAJOR REVISIONS
TO THE GOVERNOR'S JANUARY BUDGET
PROPOSAL INCLUDE THE RESTORATION
OF THE WOMEN IN CONSTRUCTION-
UNIT FUNDING OF THE FARMING OF

GOVERNOR'S BUDGET TO BE POSITIVE
ON THE GENERAL FUND SOLUTIONS IN

FROM TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY NINE
MILLION TO THREE HUNDRED SIX
MILLION. THE BUDGET ALSO
INCLUDES TECHNICAL TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE TO CLEAN UP THE
COMMUNITY ECONOMIC RESILIENCE
FUND STATUTE REMOVING REFERENCES
TO FEDERAL REPORTING
REQUIREMENTS THAT NO LONGER
EXISTS. GOOD AFTERNOON CHAZON
WITH LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE- JUST A FEW BRIEF REMARKS
RELATED TO THE LAST ITEM. THE
SPECIAL FUND LOAN FROM THE STATE
DISABILITY INSURANCE FUND TO.
TWO YEARS FOR THE- FIRST PAYMENT
ON THE STATE'S OUTSTANDING
FEDERAL YOU I LONG. TO SORT OF
SITUATION THIS PROPOSAL ON THE
MAY REVISION- THIS SPECIAL FUND
LOAN IS ONE OF SEVERAL SPECIAL
FUND LOANS INCLUDED IN THE
GOVERNOR'S MAY REVISION- THAT
TOTAL ABOUT TWO BILLION DOLLARS
ACROSS THE BUDGET. TO ALLOW THE
MAY REVISION TO MAINTAIN TO
SCHOOLS NEW DISCRETIONARY
SPENDING THAT WAS PART OF THE
JANUARY OR MAY. PROPOSALS
WITHOUT- REDUCING THOSE-
DISCRETIONARY SPENDING ITEMS OR
TAPPING THE STATE'S EXISTING
BUDGETARY RESERVES- ANOTHER
POINT AT THE TOP THAT I. AS AN
OFFICE WE WANTED TO MAKE IS THAT
THE STATE'S. INTEREST PAYMENTS
ON THE OUTSTANDING FEDERAL YOU
AYE LOANS ARE A NEW PERMANENT
FEATURE OF THE STATE BUDGET THAT
WILL BE WITH US FOR THE
FORESEEABLE FUTURE- AND I RACES
POINT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT- GOING
BACK. HERE AFTER A YEAR OR OVER
OR- MULTIPLE TIMES TO THAT THE
DISABILITY INSURANCE FUND- FOR A
LOAN TO PAY THE INTEREST ON THE
U. I. FEDERAL LOAN- IS NOT
LIKELY TO BE A VIABLE OPTION.
GIVEN HOW LONG THE STATE IS
PLANNING. TO BE REPAYING THE
FEDERAL YOU ARE ALONE- A FEW
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS SPECIFIC TO.
THE PROPOSAL ITSELF- THE
ADMINISTRATION HAS NOTED THAT
THE ALONE WON'T AFFECT THE
PAYROLL TAX RATE THAT EMPLOYEES
PAY AS PART OF THE STI PROGRAM
FOR DISABILITY INSURANCE AND
PAID FAMILY LEAVE BENEFITS- AND
IN THE FACT THAT THEY'RE
PROPOSING TO DO THIS BY
TEMPORARILY. REDUCING THE
RESERVE REQUIREMENT FOR THE
FUND- AS YOU MAY RECALL IN TWO
THOUSAND NINETEEN THE RESERVE
REQUIREMENT WAS REDUCED AS PART
OF THE PLAN TO EXTEND THE
DURATION OF PAID FAMILY LEAVE
BENEFITS FROM SIX WEEKS TO EIGHT
WEEKS- THE CURRENT RESERVE
REQUIREMENT IS SET AT THIRTY
PERCENT. OF SORT OF- EXPECTED.
BENEFIT USAGE FOR THE FUND SO
THIS WOULD REDUCE THAT BY SOME
AMOUNT THAT MEANS THAT THAT IT'S
AN UNEXPECTED INCREASE IN USAGE
WERE TO OCCUR. THE FIRM WOULD BE
SOMEWHAT LESS ABLE OR CAPABLE-
TO ACCOMMODATE A CHANGE LIKE
THAT I WILL NOTE THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION HAS. PUT FORTH
ASSURANCES THAT SHOULD SOMETHING
ALIKE THAT OCCUR- THAT THEY
WOULD BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE THE
REPAYMENT OF THE LOAN- BUT AS
YOU KNOW- MADAM CHAIR SB NINE
FIVE ONE PRESENTS. THE LARGEST
CHANGES TO THE RATE STRUCTURE
AND TAX STRUCTURE FOR STI NPFL-
SINCE THE PAID FAMILY LEAVE
PROGRAM WAS INTRODUCED THOSE
CHANGES TAKE PLACE. BEGINNING OF
NEXT YEAR AND THE BEGINNING OF
TWENTY TWENTY FIVE AND AS OF NOW
IT'S VERY DIFFICULT TO ASSESS
HOW THOSE CHANGES WILL AFFECT
THE STI FUND. I'M SO THE FUTURE
OF THE FUNDS SORT OF FISCAL
POSITION IS A LITTLE MUDDY AND
THIS LOAN IS- YOU KNOW WOULD
CONTRIBUTE. TO THAT THAT- THIRD
OF CLOUDY PICKS FOR THE FOR IT'S
A WILL PAY CLOSE IT TO WE THINK
ISN'T FOR THE SUBCOMMITTEE AND
THE LEGISLATURE TO CONSIDER
CAREFULLY AS IT MOVES FORWARD
PUTTING TOGETHER THIS YEAR'S
BUDGET. GREAT THANK YOU VERY
MUCH- SO I WANT TO TAKE OFF.
FROM THAT ON THAT ISSUE-
QUESTION FOR FINANCES HOW DOES
TAKING- MONEY FROM THIS THE I
FUND ACTUALLY ADDRESS THE LARGER
ISSUE. OF AN INADEQUATE FUNDING
FOR MILITARY FOR THE U. I. FUND
. SO I AND SEVEN THIRTY SEVEN
FIVE IN THE FINANCE OF THIS LOAN
IS FOR THE GENERAL FUND
SOLUTIONS I DON'T THINK THERE'S
ANY INTENT IN THIS ADDRESSES THE
LARGER. STRUCTURAL FUNDING
MECHANISMS OF THE UNEMPLOYMENT
INSURANCE PROGRAM. OKAY IS.
THERE ANY THOUGHTS OF HOW TO
ADDRESS THAT BECAUSE WHAT WE'RE
DOING IS. AGAIN THIS- REACTIVE A
PIECEMEAL AND I'M NOT SAYING
WHICH ANYBODY CAN PREDICT
EXACTLY WE'RE GOING TO BE IN THE
ECONOMY BUT- IT SEEMS TO ME
THAT'S THAT'S A PARTICULAR
PROBLEM HERE. THE AND I GUESS
THE OTHER QUESTION IS- WHAT
OTHER SOURCES WERE CONSIDERED TO
COVER THE COSTS AND- WHY WITH
DOES. NOT IN PLACE OF THE
IPHONE. AND THE REASON I ASK
THAT MISTER TOPPIN'S BECAUSE-
THE DAY FUND AS YOU KNOW IS 100%
PAID FOR BY. WORKERS YOU KNOW
WE'VE WE'VE HAD A HEARING
LOOKING INTO THE BARRIERS THAT
ARE PRESENT PREVENTING. CERTAIN
LOWER INCOME FAMILIES- MORE
VULNERABLE FAMILIES- RENTING
THEM FROM GETTING ACCESS TO THE
PAID FAMILY LEAVE AND DISABILITY
INSURANCE BENEFITS BENEFITS THAT
THEY PAY FOR- YOU KNOW AND
THEY'RE- SIMPLE THINGS THAT THE
EDT STAFF THAT WE KNOW IS GOING
ON THE- YOU KNOW- THE WORKERS
CAN GET ON THE PHONE TO ANSWER
THE QUESTIONS THAT. STILL NEED
TO- PROVIDE MORE MULTI LINGUAL
MATERIALS SO IF WE HAVE THIS
MONEY IN THE FUND PAID FOR BY
THE WORKING PEOPLE OF
CALIFORNIA. WHY SHOULDN'T THAT
BE USED FOR THEM TO INCREASE
ACCESS OR- PROVIDE BETTER
BENEFITS. THANK YOU CHAIR- SO I
THINK THE THING I MEAN.
ULTIMATELY THIS IS AN FROM THE
BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE AND THE
ITEM REFLECTS ON CERTAIN THE
STANCE IN THIS LANGUAGE- THIS
LOAN IS FROM SURPLUS DE I FUNDS
YOU KNOW THE FOR THE- YEAR AND
FUND BALANCE IS PROJECTED TO BE
THREE POINT ZERO MILLION.
BILLION WITH A B. IN A CALENDAR
YEAR TWENTY TWENTY THREE FOUR
POINT SEVEN MILLION AT THE END
OF TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. AND SO-
THREATENED HE DOES HAVE THE
ABILITY TO SERVE DINNER QUEST
RESOURCE IT'S A SELF BALANCING
FUND WITH REGARDS TO THE
SPENDING THAT AND SO I THINK
WHAT WE RECOGNIZE- THESE ARE.
PUBLIC FUNDS THIS IS PART OF THE
GENERAL FUND SOLUTION. JUST TO
AGAIN. MAKE THE POINT EVEN IN A
MORE IMPORTANT IS- WELL. I THINK
THAT THE RESPONSE TO WILL THERE
BE ANY DANGER TO THE CURRENT
WORKING PEOPLE AND THEIR
BENEFITS STRUCTURE THAT THEY
THAT MIGHT NOT BE THE CASE
DIRECTLY BUT INDIRECTLY IT COULD
VERY WELL HAVE AN IMPACT ON THE
WORKING PEOPLE AND- YOU KNOW FOR
EXAMPLE I. DO NOT UNDERSTAND
THAT IN TWENTY ELEVEN- THE LAST
THE LAST TIME THERE WAS A LOAN-
BED NO BENEFIT EXPANSIONS WERE
ALLOWED UNTIL THAT LOAN WAS PAID
OFF- THROUGH THAT AGAIN. YOU
KNOW FOR FAMILIES THAT YOU KNOW
WE'RE TRYING TO FOR EXAMPLE
INCLUDE EXTENDED FAMILIES- YOU
KNOW SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO. A
PAID FAMILY LEAVE SO HOW DO WE
ADDRESS THOSE NEEDS THAT
CONTINUE AND THE MONEY IS THERE.
THAT THEY HAVE PAID FOR AND PUT
INTO THE INTO THE FUND. THAT'S
WHAT WE NEED I THINK THAT'S WHAT
WE NEED TO BE USING THIS FUND
FOR. AND ESPECIALLY BECAUSE
THAT'S THE EXPECTATIONS. OF THE
PEOPLE WHO CONTRIBUTE TO IT.
ENTER MARCH BERMAN OF. AT CHURCH
ISN'T THAT THE FUND IS REQUIRED
TO HAVE A SPECIFIC RESERVE EACH
YEAR- SO OUTSIDE OF THAT EDT
COULDN'T DO UTILIZE THAT RESERVE
FUNDING TO MEET THE NEEDS THAT
WERE- MENTIONED EARLIER- SO THIS
THREE HUNDRED SIX MILLION DOLLAR
LOAN WOULD BE. THOUGHT OF AS
COMING OUT OF THAT RESERVE- THE
ADEQUACY- THAT THE FUND IS
REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN- THE
LANGUAGE THAT'S PUT FORWARD FOR
THE LOAN DOESN'T. IMPACT ANY
BENEFITS SO- WE CAN CERTAINLY
LOOK INTO- THE INSTANCE THAT YOU
REFERRED HERE THAT HAPPENED IN
TWO THOUSAND ELEVEN- BUT WE
DON'T ANTICIPATE AND WE HAVE A
PROPOSED THAT THIS LOAN WOULD.
WORK REQUIRE ANY PAUSE IN ANY
BENEFIT EXPANSIONS- LEVY THIS IS
UTILIZING SORT OF A CASH
BALANCES IN THE FUND IN ORDER TO
PAY FOR THE EXISTING YOU ALONE-
WHICH I WOULD JUST PUT A POINT
ON THAT. THE EXIST UNDER CURRENT
PRACTICE THE STATE PAYS THE
INTEREST ON THE ON THE U. I.
LOAN FROM GENERAL FUND SO NOT
FROM THE UNEMPLOYMENT TRUST
FUND- THAT'S PAID FOR BY
EMPLOYERS- SEVEN WE DON'T HAVE
ANY PROPOSAL TO CHANGE THAT
STRUCTURE. OUT THERE ARE OTHER
STATES THAT UTILIZE- INCREASE IN
EMPLOYER TAXES IN ORDER TO PAY
YOUR INTEREST- HOWEVER
CALIFORNIA. AND PAST PRACTICES
HAS USED GENERAL FUND IN EMPOWER
PEOPLE FOR US TO CONTINUE TO DO
SO- EXCEPT FOR THIS LOAN THAT WE
PER PERSON TWENTY THREE TWENTY
FOUR YEAH. I THINK YOU GET MY
POINT IN TERMS OF. IT I'M
LOOKING OUT NOT JUST FOR THE
CURRENT LEVEL OF BENEFITS BUT-
WHAT SHOULD BE- AS LONG AS THE
FUNDING IS THERE. PEOPLE ARE
CONTRIBUTING TO IT WORKING
PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING TO IT. THEY
SHOULD HAVE ACCESS TO. STILL THE
X. OF BEEN THE- OR AN OF WAYS IN
WHICH THEY MAKE DO BETTER THE
MONEY THEY'RE PUTTING
THEMSELVES. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
APPRECIATE THAT- NO. TRANSACTION
PRESS QUESTIONS ON THIS. GO
AHEAD SENATOR. THERE WE GO THIS
PARTICULAR ISSUE TO YOU I LOAN.
I HOPE YOU GUYS UNDERSTAND OUR
FRUSTRATION. FOR SOME OF OUR
FRUSTRATIONS WITH THIS- AT THE
TWO HUNDRED AND SIXTY BILLION
DOLLARS BASICALLY OF INTEREST
PAYMENTS THAT COULD THAT'S A LOT
OF PROJECTS THAT CAN BE DONE
WITH TWO HUNDRED SIXTY BILLION
DOLLARS. OUR SERVICES TO OUR
SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS JUST WITH
THE INTEREST PAYMENTS ALONE- THE
LAST COUPLE OF YEARS AGO EVEN
THOUGH WE'RE- CLAWING BACK
DESPERATELY ON WHAT WAS A HUGE
SURPLUS IT'S STILL
REPRESENTATIVE SURPLUS. AND WE
DID HAVE FEDERAL FUNDS FOR
COVERT FUNDS THAT WE COULD HAVE
USED TO PAY THIS DEBT OFF SO WE
WOULD NOT BE HERE TALKING ABOUT
THIS. AND YET HERE WE ARE
TALKING ABOUT MOVING POTS OF
MONEY AROUND JUST COVER THE
INTEREST. AND IN I THINK I THINK
IT'S A GOOD LESSON BUT I THINK
THE STATE KEEPS NEEDING TO DO
THAT LESSON OVER AND OVER. AND
THE OTHER THE OTHER THANKS TO
HAVE WITH THIS IS THAT YOU KNOW
WE KEEP REFERRING TO IT IS THE
STATE MONEY THAT IT IT YOU KNOW
THAT THAT'S TAXPAYERS MONEY. AND
ANY INTEREST ON THAT WE DON'T TO
PAY BACK TO THE FED'S- WORLD HE
ONE OF TO STATES THAT DID THIS.
AND NOW HERE WE ARE- TRYING TO
FIGURE OUT IN A DEFICIT YEAR
WHERE TO SCRAMBLE TO GET MONEY
TO PAY THIS. AND ULTIMATELY
WHERE THIS WINDS UP IS ON THE
BACKS OF OUR OUR BUSINESS. OUR
BUSINESS COMMUNITY BECAUSE
EVERYONE OF THEM WHEN WE WHEN WE
CAN'T PAY THE PRINCIPAL BACK IS
GOING TO. BE HIT WITH HIGHER
FEES. AND SO. I YOU KNOW I. I
THINK YOU'VE ANSWERED ONE OF THE
QUESTIONS I HAD WHICH HOW IS
THIS NOT GOING TO IMPACT THE
NEXT PROGRAM THAT WE TAKE MONEY
FROM. AND I THINK YOU EXPLAINED
THAT PRETTY WELL WHICH IS THE
STI PROGRAM- BECAUSE THAT'S
HEAVILY USED ALSO- BUT IT YOU
KNOW. GOING INTO THE FUTURE WE
HAVE TO FIGURE OUT A BETTER WAY
TO GET RID OF THIS DEBT. AND
TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SOME OF OUR
OPPORTUNITIES ONLY HAVE IT TO DO
IT. SO THAT WE'RE NOT. OR NOT
PAN THE FEDS. TWO HUNDRED.
THIRTY THREE UNDER SIXTY MILLION
DOLLARS IN INTEREST. AND SO- I
THINK IT'S MORE OF A STATEMENT
THAN A QUESTION BECAUSE MY
QUESTION I THINK ANSWERED
ALREADY- BUT- I THINK IT JUST I
JUST WANT YOU UNDERSTAND. WHAT
THE FRUSTRATION OF SOME OF US
ARE IN DEALING WITH SOME OF THE
R. BUDGET ISSUES. IS SELF
INFLICTED WOUNDS. AND I REALIZE
OUR STAFF IS JUST DOING WHAT
THEY'RE- DIRECTED TO DO. LET WE
THEY NEED BETTER DIRECTION IS
WHAT I'M SAYING. AND SO- SO MANY
I APPRECIATE WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
TO TRY AND HELP US SORT THIS
MESS OUT- BUT- THIS ONE REALLY-
STICKS IN MY CRAW BECAUSE WE
HANDLE THIS. VERY WRONG. THANKS

AN ADDITIONAL NINE MILLION IN

SPECIAL ADVOCATES PROGRAM- THESE
ARE JUST SOME OF THE- IMPORTANT
ADJUSTMENTS TO PAY INCLUDED IN
THE MAY REVISION AND- I'M JOINED
BY MY COLLEAGUES. I'M AT
FINANCING THE JUDICIAL BRANCH TO
RESPOND WHEN QUESTION YOU MAY
HAVE ON ANY ISSUES COVERED OR
ANYTHING OF THE SORT ON THE H.
M. THANK YOU. THANK YOU VERY
MUCH- MISLI. YES ANNUALLY WITH
THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S
OFFICE. WE HAVE COMMENTS FOR TWO
OF THE ITEMS- THAT WERE
INTRODUCED SO THE FIRST ONE THAT
WILL TURN TO IS THE CARE ACT- SO
WE DO RECOGNIZE THAT THERE WILL
BE ONGOING COSTS THAT WE DO
RECKON. RECOMMEND THAT THE
LEGISLATURE ONLY PROVIDE THE
FIFTY FIVE POINT FIVE MILLION.
RECOMMENDED FOR THE BUDGET YEAR
OF TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR. AND
TO REQUIRE THAT EACH COURT THAT
IS IMPLEMENTING IN THE BUDGET
YEAR THIS NEW IMPLEMENTING THIS
NEW PROGRAM AS OF OCTOBER-
REPORTS MONTHLY ON SOME KEY
METRICS THAT ARE REALLY
IMPORTANT TO DETERMINING WHAT
THE- ONGOING FUTURE. NEED WILL
BE THE FOR EXAMPLE THE AMOUNT OF
TIME JUDICIAL STAFF AND LEGAL
REPRESENTATION WILL NEED TO
SPEND WITH EACH CLIENT. THERE IS
SIGNIFICANT UNCERTAINTY ON THE
ESTIMATES BECAUSE THIS PROGRAM
HASN'T BEEN IMPLEMENTED YET. AND
SO THE DATA COLLECTED IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR IS REALLY
GOING TO BE IMPORTANT TO THEN
DETERMINE WHAT THE APPROPRIATE
FISCAL NEED ON AN ONGOING BASIS
IS. THAT WOULD ALSO PROVIDE SOME
HELPFUL INFORMATION FOR THE
LEGISLATURE TO DETERMINE WHETHER
OR NOT ANY LEGISLATIVE CHANGES
ARE NEEDED TO MAKE SURE THE
PROGRAM OPERATES AS INTENDED OR
TO CONTROL COSTS. THIS AREA
WHERE HAVE COME IS RELATED TO
THE FEDERAL BURN THE STATE
CRISIS INTERVENTION PROGRAM.
ALSO KNOWN AS SKIP- BRIEFLY- THE
COMMITTEE KIND OF HAD A
CONVERSATION- RELATED TO THIS
WHEN THEY'RE WHEN THEY HEARD THE
DSCC ITEMS EARLIER THIS YEAR.
THIS IS A BRIEF SUMMARY OF THE
STATE PROGRAM- PROVIDES FEDERAL
FUNDS. TO SUPPORT CRISIS
INTERVENTION PROGRAMS THAT
REDUCE CRIME AND VIOLENCE WITH A
PARTICULAR FOCUS ON GUN
VIOLENCE. THE DIGITAL BRANCHES
PROPOSAL FOR INCREASED
REIMBURSEMENT AUTHORITY IS
CONSISTENT WITH THE SEC'S
INITIAL PLAN. FOR THE STATE'S
SHARE OF THIS GET FUNDING TO
GENERALLY GO TO THE JUDICIAL
BRANCH WITH MOST OF THE FUNDING
THEN SUPPORTING KIND OF
COLLABORATIVE COURTS. SO WE DO
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
ENSURE THAT THE SKIP FUNDING
PLAN. REFLECTS ITS PRIORITIES-
SO FOR EXAMPLE IF THE
LEGISLATURE HAS HIGHER PRIORITY
GUN VIOLENCE REDUCTION OR
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH ACTIVITIES
THAT COULD CHANGE SORT OF WHAT
THE PLAN. WOULD LOOK LIKE AS OF
THERE IS AN ALTERNATIVE PLAN
THAT COULD IMPACT THE EXTENT TO
WHICH THIS REIMBURSEMENT
AUTHORITY OR THE AMOUNT BEING
REQUESTED IS ACTUALLY NEEDED.
THANK YOU HAPPY TO ANSWER
QUESTIONS AT THE APPROPRIATE
TIME. OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
LET'S SEE- UNDER ANY ANY
QUESTIONS OKAY- I DO HAVE SOME
QUESTIONS. ON THE IMPLEMENTATION
OF THE CARE ACT- AWARDED THE
ADMINISTRATION GET THE ESTIMATE
OF THE NUMBER OF LEGAL OUR LEGAL
EIGHT HOURS PER PARTICIPANT AND
WHY WAS IT REVISED WHAT DID YOU
FIND THE CHURCH SO. WE I WORKED
WITH A PHONE NUMBER STAKEHOLDERS
AND WE GOT. SOME VERY GOOD
FEEDBACK- YOU KNOW FROM- SOME
STAKEHOLDERS INDICATING THAT
TIME ACTUALLY SOME OF THE READ
THE RESOURCES THAT WE HAVE FIVE.
THAT WE PROGRAMS ARE THAT WE
COULD IN THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
PUMP MAY BE SUFFICIENT BUT WE
ALSO RECEIVED FEEDBACK THAT IT
MAY NOT BE IN THE OFFICE AND SO-
EIGHTEEN K. QIAN. TODAY IN AN
EFFORT TO RESPOND IN INSURANCE-
THAT THERE IS SUFFICIENT
RESOURCES FOR- IT DIFFICULT
SERVICES HOURS WE- WE- WE LANDED
ON JUST DOUBLING THE NUMBER OF
HOURS- FROM TWENTY HOURS TO
FORTY HOURS ON. END YOU KNOW
LOOKING TO SEE THE IMPACT OF A
THAT AND WILL BE MODERATE
MONITORING THE IMPACT OF THOSE
RESOURCES AND REASSESS. IN THE.
FUTURE BUDGET DEVELOPMENT
PROCESS. THANK YOU AND- AS A

ELSE THAT CAME UP WITH ADVOCATES
OR OTHERS THAT YOU WORKED WITH
OTHER THAN THE FUNDING AND I
UNDERSTAND HOME FOR IN THE
FUNDING IS. OTHER IDEAS THAT
HAVE COME UP THAT THEY'RE ASKING
FOR IN ADVANCE THAT THEY WILL
NEED. YOU KNOW ITS- FIVE AT THE
TIME I KNOW IT'S A LOT OF IT IS
JUST GETTING OUT THE DETAILS
AND- THAT THE JUDICIAL COUNCIL
WAS DEVELOPING HARM REGULATIONS
AND ON ON ON FORMS AND- THAT WAS
LIKE A CONCERN THAT WAS BROUGHT
UP AND I THINK THE JUDICIAL
COUNCIL JUST RECENTLY- PROVIDED
AN UPDATE ON. ON ON THAT- I
THINK HI YOU KNOW JUST REALLY
SEEING HOW IT WILL ACTUALLY PLAY
OUT THIS IS A NEW PROGRAM I
UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW. CERTAINLY
HAS SOME UNCERTAINTY WITH- DID-
THE NUMBER OF- REPORT
PARTICIPANTS OF THE PROGRAM- AND
SO I THINK THERE'S JUST KIND OF-
JUST SOME SOME SOME UNCERTAINTY
WITH HOW IT FELT IT'LL FALL OUT
BUT WE ARE COMMITTED MINISTRY
SMALL BE MONITORING CLOSELY AND-
MAKING SURE THAT THERE'S
SUFFICIENT RESOURCES TO- SECURE
THAT SUCCESSFUL IMPLEMENTATION
OF THE CARE ACT. SO ALONG THOSE
LINES SOMETHING I THINK OF THE
L. A. O.'S OFFICE RECOMMENDED
SOME PARTICULARS OF THOSE ANY
RESPONSE TO SHIRK THEIR
RECOMMENDATIONS. ALL SO THE
ONLY- YOU KNOW THEY'D
MINISTRATIONS RECOGNIZES- THAT
THE FUNDING NEEDS OF THE PROGRAM
IS UNCERTAIN SO- YOU KNOW THE
PROGRAM IS STILL UNDER WAY
HOWEVER- YOU KNOW WE
RESPECTFULLY DISAGREE WITH THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE IS
RECOMMENDATION TO PROVIDE ONE
TIME FUNDING- AND WE URGE. THE
LEGISLATURE TO SUPPORT ON GOING
FUNDING TO IMPLEMENT THE CARE
ACT- THE CARROT THE CAT CARE ACT
INVOLVES THE COMMITMENT OF MANY
STAKEHOLDERS FROM ALL FIFTY
COUNTY GOVERNMENTS- THE CALL
SERVICE PROVIDERS TELCO COUNTY
BEHAVIORAL HEALTH SERVICES.
PROVIDERS AND SO IT'S IMPORTANT
THAT WE BUILT IN THE NECESSARY
RESOURCES TO- INTO OUR BUDGET TO
DEMONSTRATE THIS BUT THE SIX ON
GOING COMMITMENT- TO SUPPORT THE
SUCCESS OF THE PROGRAM- IN THE
LAST WEEK- THE IDEALS
RECOMMENDATION ON DATA REPORTING
WE APPRECIATE THE NEED FOR
ADDITIONAL DATA HOWEVER WE DO
THINK THAT MONTHLY REPORTING.
MIGHT BE ONEROUS ON THE JUDICIAL
COUNCIL'S WE LOOK FORWARD TO
WORK WITH COLLEGES STAFF ON ON
THE DETAILS OF THAT WERE BURKE.
BECAUSE YOU MAY I THINK YOU
MENTIONED SOMETHING 2 DEGREES
THAT YOU NEED. INFORMATION RIGHT
JEFF SMITH PLEASE THE NEW NEW
PROGRAM AND I THINK THAT'S THE
POINT THAT RIGHT DAILYKOS OFFICE
WAS TRYING WE APPRECIATE THAT
RIGHT. ABSOLUTELY AND MAYBE A
LITTLE BIT OF ADDITIONAL
CONTACTS SO THE BEEN ACTING LAW
FOR THE CARE ACT DOES REQUIRE
THAT DH CS COURTNEY REPORTING ON
THE HEALTH SIDE. AND TO WORK
WITH THE JUDICIAL BRANCH ON
REPORTING AS WELL. OUR CONCERN
IS THAT YOU'RE NOT LIKELY TO GET
THAT DATA IN TIME FOR YOUR
CONSIDERATION FOR THE
APPROPRIATE FUNDING LEVELS FOR
THE TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE
BUDGET. AND SO THAT'S WHY WE'RE
RECOMMENDING THAT FOR THE FIRST
BATCH OF COURTS THAT ARE
IMPLEMENTING OF THIS GO AROUND.
THAT'S WHY YOU'RE GETTING THAT
FREQUENCY OF FUNDING OF
REPORTING SITE FREQUENCY OF
REPORTING SO THAT YOU CAN SEE
WHAT THE START UP LOOKS LIKE
BECAUSE IT MEANS A LITTLE BIT OF
A RECOGNITION. THAT WHEN THE
PROGRAM STARTS UP. IT MIGHT
START OFF SLOW YOU KNOW YOU
DON'T HAVE THE TAKE UP THAT
YOU'RE IT NECESSARILY
ANTICIPATING SO YOU WANT TO TAKE
A LOOK AT MONTHS OVER TIME. BUT
YOU CAN ALSO HAVE THE REVERSE
THERE'S A HUGE INFLUX. OF YOU
KNOW PEOPLE THAT THINK THEY'RE
ELIGIBLE FOR THE PROGRAM IT
TURNS OUT THEY MIGHT NOT BE AND
SO I THINK THAT THAT IS KIND OF-
ONE OF THE KEY FACTORS WE LOOK
AT THE BREAKDOWN OF THE KEY
FACTORS OF WHAT'S DRIVING THE
COST THE INCLUDE THE NUMBER OF
PARTICIPANTS THE PETITIONS THAT
WILL BE HEARD WHO'S ADMITTED TO
THE PROGRAM. AS WELL AS THE
NUMBER OF HEARINGS THAT HAVE TO
OCCUR AND THEN THE AMOUNT OF
TIME. THAT IS SPENT VOTE BOTH BY
JUDGES AND LEGAL REPRESENTATION
AND SO. WHEN WE SAY KEY METRICS
I THINK THAT THAT'S WHAT WE'RE
SORT OF HONING IN ON. WE DON'T
WANT TO DO THIS IN REPLACEMENT
OR BASICALLY HAVE YOU KNOW THAT
ANNUAL DATA REPORTING LIKE ALL
OF A SUDDEN BE EXPEDITED. BUT
IT'S REALLY HIGHLIGHTING THESE
KEY POINTS WHICH ARE CRITICAL TO
THE CALCULATION OF THE FUNDING
ME BECAUSE THOSE ARE THE KEY
FACTORS THAT ARE. INCORPORATED
INTO THE CALCULATION. IT WILL. I
DO AGREE THAT. YOU KNOW EARLY
ON. THANK YOU FOR THE NEW
PROGRAM. THAT THAT'S A CRITICAL
TIME TO BE ABLE TO GATHER THIS
INFORMATION SO. I HOPE YOU TAKE
THAT. THE AS A SERIOUS REQUEST.
THANK YOU. OKAY THANK YOU BOTH
IT FOLLOW VERY MUCH. MOVING ON
TO ISSUED TO- DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS AND REHABILITATION.
THIS LATELY. LET ME PAY FOR.
THANKS TO THE.
IF YOU TO IN CORRECTIONS- NOT
SURE WHO WHO FROM DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE OKAY. PLEASE YES YEAH.
FROM THE SOUTH AND IT'S NOT
WORKING. THIRTY THREE THANK YOU-
GOOD AFTERNOON MY NAME IS SALLY
LOOKING BILL WITH THE DEPARTMENT
OF FINANCE- WE WILL BE PROVIDING
A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF SOME OF THE
KEY MAY REVISION- ISSUES BEFORE
YOU TODAY AND AFTER THE
PRESENTATION WILL BE HAPPY TO
TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE.
SO I WILL START WITH THE SAN
QUENTIN PROPOSAL THE MAY
REVISION PROPOSES FUNDING FOR
TWO CAPITAL PROJECTS IN SUPPORT
OF THE ADMINISTRATION'S VISION
TO TRANSFORM SAN QUENTIN FROM A
MAXIMUM SECURITY PRISON INTO A
FACILITY FOCUSED ON IMPROVING
PUBLIC SAFETY THREE THREE REAL
REHABILITATION AND EDUCATION.
THE FIRST PROPOSAL IS FOR THREE
HUNDRED SIXTY POINT SIX MILLION
PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND
CONSTRUCTION FUND FOR THE PRE
CONSTRUCTION AND DESIGN BUILD
PHASES FOR PROJECT TO DEMOLISH
BUILDING THIRTY THREE WHICH IS
THE FORMER PIAA BUILDING AND FOR
THE CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW
EDUCATIONAL AND VOCATIONAL
CENTER ON THAT SAME SITE THE NEW
FACILITY WILL PROVIDE A
CENTRALIZED LOCATION FOR THE
EXPANSION OF REHABILITATIVE
PROGRAMS. THE SECOND PROPOSAL IS
FOR TWENTY MILLION GENERAL FUND
FOR THE PRELIMINARY PLANS
WORKING DRAWINGS AND
CONSTRUCTION PHASES FOR VARIOUS
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS ON THE
CAMPUS IN SUPPORT OF THE
ADMINISTRATION'S VISION. AS BOTH
OF THESE PROJECTS HAVE A PLANNED
COMPLETION DATE OF TWENTY TWENTY
FIVE THE MAY REVISION ALSO
PROPOSES STATUTORY CHANGES
INTENDED TO EXPEDITE THE
DELIVERY OF THOSE PROJECTS.
INCLUDING AUTHORIZATION FOR CDC
ARE TO USE THE PROGRESSIVE
DESIGN BUILD PROJECT DELIVERY
METHOD. UP ALSO INCLUDES AN
EXEMPTION FROM THE CALIFORNIA
ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT OR
CEQA. AN EXEMPTION FROM STATE
HISTORIC PRESERVATION
REQUIREMENTS. THE PROPOSAL ALSO
INCLUDES STATUTORY CHANGES TO
RENAME THE PRISON FROM. SAN
QUENTIN STATE PRISON TO SAN
QUENTIN REHABILITATION CENTER.
THESE PROJECTS WHICH WILL BE
INFORMED BY THE VISION AND
RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE MULTI
DISCIPLINARY ADVISORY COUNCIL
ESTABLISHED BY THE GOVERNOR WILL
SUPPORT THE CALIFORNIA MODEL
WHICH WILL SERVE AS A NATION
WIDE MODEL TO ADVANCE A MORE
EFFECTIVE JUSTICE SYSTEM. THAT
BUILD SAFER COMMUNITIES AND
REDUCE REDUCES RECIDIVISM. AND
WITH THAT I WILL TURN IT OVER TO
MY COLLEAGUES TO CONTINUE TO
PRESENTATION. THIRD TOMLINSON
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE I WILL BE
HIGHLIGHTING ADULT POPULATION
PROJECTIONS AS WELL AS A FEW OF
THE ADMINISTRATION'S MAY
REVISION PROPOSALS. OF THE MAY
REVISION OF CORPORATES UPDATED
PROJECTIONS FOR THE ADULT
INCARCERATED IN PRO POPULATIONS.
A PREPARED BY CDC OURS OFFICE OF
RESEARCH SPRING PROJECTIONS
INDICATE THAT THE ADULT
INCARCERATED POPULATION WILL
CONTINUE TO TAKE A TRIP DOWN
WORK. THE AVERAGE DAILY ADULT
INCARCERATED POPULATION FOR
TWENTY TO TWENTY THREE IS NOW
PROJECTED TO BE NINETY FIVE
THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED AS COMPARED
TO APPROXIMATELY NINETY SIX
THOUSAND- FROM THE FULL TWENTY
TWENTY TWO PROJECTIONS. A
DECREASE OF POINT 6%
ADDITIONALLY THIS POPULATION IS
PROJECTED TO DECREASE BY
APPROXIMATELY TWENTY SEVEN
HUNDRED BETWEEN TWENTY TO TWENTY
THREE AND TWENTY THREE TWENTY
FOUR- FOR TOTAL AVERAGE DAILY
POPULATION OF APPROXIMATELY
NINETY THREE THOUSAND AND TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR. THE
POPULATION IS PROJECTED TO
DECLINE FURTHER- TO AN ESTIMATED
NINETY THOUSAND AND TWENTY FIVE
TWENTY SIX THE DIFFERENCE
BETWEEN THE SPRING AND FALL
PROJECTIONS ARE LARGELY
ATTRIBUTED TO THE FEWER
ADMISSIONS TO CDC ARE. THAN
PREVIOUSLY PROJECTED- THE PAROLE
AVERAGE BUT DALY POPULATION IS
PROJECTED TO BE APPROXIMATELY
THIRTY NINE THOUSAND SIX HUNDRED
AND TWENTY TWO TWENTY THREE. AND
THIRTY SEVEN THOUSAND AND TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR BASED ON
SPRING PROJECTIONS THE AVERAGE
DAILY PAROLE POPULATION WILL
DECLINE TO AN ESTIMATED THIRTY
SIX THOUSAND BY THE END OF THE
TWENTY SIX TWENTY SEVEN FISCAL
YEAR. THE OVERALL DECLINE IS
PRIMARILY DUE TO RECENT
LEGISLATIVE AND CDCR POLICY
CHANGES THAT ALLOW FREE DIVISION
FOUR. TO DIVISION OF PAROLE
OPERATIONS REVIEW THAT MAY LEAD
TO XCELERATED DISCHARGED FROM
PAROLE AND SHORTEN SHORTENED
PAROLE TERMS FOR MOST OFFENDERS
RELEASED TO THE APPROXIMATE
RELEASE TO PAROLE IN JULY TWENTY
TWENTY OR LATER. CONSISTENT WITH
THE PRISON CLOSURE PLAN INCLUDED
IN THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THE MAY
REVISION INCLUDES UPDATED
SAVINGS ASSOCIATED WITH THE
CLOSURE OF THE CALIFORNIA
CORRECTIONAL CENTER. SCHEDULED
TO CLOSE IN JUNE TWENTY TWENTY
THREE. THE CALIFORNIA CALIFORNIA
CITY CORRECTIONAL FACILITY
SCHEDULED TO CLOSE IN MARCH
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. AND SIX
FACILITIES AT VARIOUS PRISON
SCHEDULED TO CLOSE BY THE END OF
THE YEAR. THE MAY REVISION
REFLECTS A REFINED SAVINGS
AMOUNT OF FOUR HUNDRED SEVENTY
TWO POINT THREE MILLION ONGOING
ASSOCIATED WITH THESE CLOSURES
AND DEACTIVATIONS. WE NOTE THAT
THE ADMINISTRATION REMAINS
COMMITTED TO MEETING THE NEEDS
OF STAFF AND THE INCARCERATED
POPULATION WHILE RIGHT SIZING
CALIFORNIA'S PRISON SYSTEM TO
REFLECT THE NEEDS OF THE STATE.
AS OUR POPULATION CONTINUES TO
COMMUTE THE PRISON POPULATION
BEGINS CONTINUES TO DECLINE. THE
AGENDA INCLUDES SUMMARIES OF THE
VARIOUS MAY REVISION PROPOSALS
AND I WILL HIGHLIGHT A COUPLE OF
THE MOST SIGNIFICANT ADJUSTMENTS
FOR THE SUB COMMITTEE. FIRST THE
BOARD OF PAROLE HEARINGS. WITHIN
CDCR REQUESTS FOUR POINT TWO
BILLION GENERAL FUND IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR AND TWO POINT
SIX MILLION ON GOING. TO
MAINTAIN EXISTING SERVICE LEVELS
TO SUPPORT SEVERAL OF THE BOARD
OF PAROLES A CORE FUNCTIONS THIS
INCLUDES RESOURCES TO MAINTAIN
ATTORNEY PAY. AND AN ADDITIONAL
HOUR OF REPRESENTATION IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR. WHICH WILL
HELP THE BOARD REMAIN
COMPETITIVE WITH CURRENT MARKET
RATES WHERE THE BOARD MAY HAVE
ABSORBED COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH
SOME OF THE CORE FUNCTIONS
PREVIOUSLY- THE SAVINGS HAVE A
ROAD AND THIS APPROACH IS NO
LONGER SUSTAINABLE. LASTLY I
WILL HIGHLIGHT TO HEALTH CARE
RELATED PROPOSALS CDCR REQUEST
ELEVEN MILLION GENERAL FUND IN
EIGHTY FIVE POSITIONS IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR. AND SEVENTEEN
POINT THREE MILLION AND A
HUNDRED AND FORTY FOUR POSITIONS
ON GOING TO EXPAND THE USE OF
TELLEMENT WILL HEALTH SERVICES

ABILITY TO RECRUIT AND RETAIN.
OUR CLINICIANS IN THE MIST UP
MIX OF THE NATIONAL AND STATE
WIDE SHORTAGE OF MENTAL HEALTH
CARE PROFESSIONALS. ADDITIONALLY
THE DEPARTMENT REQUEST THREE
WEEKS THIRTY NINE POINT SEVEN
MILLION ONGOING GENERAL FUND. TO
ADDRESS PROJECTED. A PROJECTED
DEFICIT IN THE CONTRACT MEDICAL
BUDGET. WHICH SUPPORTS THE
PROVISION OF SPECIALTY CARE

AND COMMUNITY SETTINGS. WITHOUT
MY DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
COLLEAGUES TONIGHT AS WELL AS
OUR COLLEAGUES AT CDC ARE IN C.
C. H. C. S. ARE AVAILABLE TO
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS AND- THANK
YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR TIME.
OKAY THANK YOU VERY MUCH- ANY.
NOW COME ON- L. A. O.'S OFFICE
PLEASE. THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR
CAITLIN O'NEILL AT THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE WE
HAVE COMMENTS ON SEVERAL OF THE
PROPOSALS WITHIN THE CDC ARE
ITEM ON YOUR AGENDA. I WILL
PROVIDE OUR COMMENTS ON THE SAN
QUENTIN PROPOSALS AS WELL AS THE
PROPOSAL ON THE BOARD OF PAROLE
HEARINGS AND THEN I'LL PASS IT
OFF TO MY COLLEAGUES WHO WILL.
DISCUSS OUR COMMENTS ON SOME
HEALTH CARE PROPOSALS- AND WITH
STATE AS WAS. STATED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE THE BUDGET
INCLUDES TO CAPITAL OUTLAY.
PROPOSALS AT SAN QUENTIN THAT
THE GOVERNOR HAS STATED ARE A
PART OF THE INTENT TO DEVELOP
THE CALIFORNIA MODEL- OR DEVELOP
A MODEL CALLED THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL THAT WOULD BE AFFECTED
THAT- ACHIEVING CERTAIN GOALS
THAT HAVE BEEN STATED BY THE
ADMINISTRATION. AND WOULD BE
SCALABLE. AND WE FIND THAT WHILE
THE GOALS OF THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL ARE LAUDABLE. THERE ARE
CURRENTLY NO CLEAR OBJECTIVES
FOR PLANS FOR HOW THOSE SCHOOLS
WOULD BE REACHED. AND WITHOUT
SUCH INFORMATION IT'S DIFFICULT
FOR THE LEGISLATURE TO EVALUATE
THE MERITS OF THESE CAPITAL
OUTLAY PROPOSALS- AND
SPECIFICALLY- WHETHER OR NOT. IT
MAKES SENSE STEVEN PILOT THEM AT
OR EVEN BEGIN WITH- DEVELOPMENT
OF THE MODEL AT SEEN CLINTON
SPECIFICALLY VERSUS ANOTHER
PERSON. WE ALSO FIND THAT
FUNDING AT THE FUNDING PROPOSALS
LACK KEY INFORMATION-
SPECIFICALLY THE A SCOPE AND
CONSTRUCTION- SCOPE OF
CONSTRUCTION AND THE OPERATIONAL
IMPLICATIONS OF THE PROPOSALS
ARE. ALMOST ENTIRELY
UNDETERMINED AT THIS POINT AND
THAT'S BECAUSE THE GOVERNOR IS
PROPOSING TO LEAVE DEVELOPMENT
OF THOSE DETAILS TO- AND
ADVISORY COUNCIL THAT HE HAS
CONVENED- BUT AT THIS POINT
YOU'RE BEING ASKED TO. PROVIDE
FULL FUNDING SO FROM THE DESIGN
ALL THE WAY THROUGH CONSTRUCTION
FOR TWO PROPOSALS WITHOUT-
ESSENTIALLY ANY DETAILS. NINE
MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO ASSESS
WHETHER THESE PROPOSALS WOULD
INDEED FURTHER THE GOALS OF THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL THAT HAVE BEEN
STATED BY THE END
ADMINISTRATION. IT ALSO MEANS
THAT THE LEGISLATURE RICK RISKS
APPROVING FUNDING FOR PROJECTS
THAT IT MAY ULTIMATELY DISAGREE
WITH FOR EXAMPLE WITHOUT KNOWING
THE OPERATIONAL IMPLICATIONS OF
THE PROPOSALS- IT'S- VERY
DIFFICULT TO DETERMINE THAT
THERE WOULDN'T BE SOME KIND OF
DECISION THAT THE ADMINISTRATION
MAKES SUCH AS AN ELIGIBILITY
CRITERIA OR THE TYPE OF.
ACTIVITIES TAKING PLACE IN THE
FACILITIES THAT THE LEGISLATURE-
WOULD WOULDN'T DISAGREE WITH FOR
EXAMPLE. AND WITHOUT KNOWING THE
OPERATIONAL COSTS OPERATIONAL
IMPLICATIONS IT'S DIFFICULT TO
DETERMINE WHAT THE OPERATIONAL
COSTS OF THESE FACILITIES WOULD
BE- AND THAT MAKES IT VIRTUALLY
IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE LEGISLATURE
TO ASSESS WHETHER OR NOT. THE
LIKELY BENEFITS OF THESE.
SALIE'S WHAT OUTWEIGH THE
OPERATIONAL COSTS AND IT DOESN'T
MAKE SENSE TO CONSTRUCT
FACILITIES BEFORE WE ARE ABLE TO
LEGISLATORS ABLE TO DETERMINE
WHETHER IT'S COMFORTABLE WITH
THE WITH THE COSTS OF OPERATING
MATH. WE ALSO FOUND THAT THE
PROPOSED PROJECT COMPLETION
DEADLINE BY TWENTY TWENTY FIVE
IS BOTH UNNECESSARY AND
PROBLEMATIC. AND WE FOUND THAT
IT'S UNNECESSARY BECAUSE THERE'S
NO CLEAR RATIONALE BEHIND THE
GOVERNOR'S INTENTION TO COMPLETE
THE PROPOSED PROJECTS BY TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE. WE FOUND THAT IT'S
PROBLEMATIC FOR VARIOUS REASONS-
FOR EXAMPLE- DAVID THE DEADLINE
COULD ACTUALLY UNDER UNDERMINE
THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN EFFECTIVE
MODEL. BECAUSE IT- ESSENTIALLY
WOULD MEAN THAT TO BE ADVISORY
COUNCIL HAS TO ARRIVE AT
RECOMMENDATIONS BY AROUND.
SEPTEMBER SO OF TWENTY TWENTY
THREE. REFER THEM TO INFORM THE
DESIGN OF THE EDUCATIONAL AND
VOCATIONAL. CENTER THAT'S
PROPOSED AND THAT REALLY IS
QUITE A COMPRESSED TIMELINE FOR
THE ADVISORY COUNCIL TO
MEANINGFUL MEANINGFULLY GATHERS
STAKEHOLDER INPUT CONSULT THE
RESEARCH- TALK WITH
PRACTITIONERS FROM OTHER STATES
EXETER. WE ALSO UNDERSTAND FROM
CDCR THAT EVEN WITH THIS
COMPRESSED TIMELINE THE-
DEPARTMENT INTENDS TO BEGIN SOME
DESIGN ACTIVITIES BEFORE
RECEIVING RECOMMENDATIONS FROM
THE ADVISORY COUNCIL IN ORDER TO
MEET THAT TWENTY TWENTY FIVE
DEADLINE- THERE'S ALSO. THE THE
DEADLINE ALSO. CREATES
CHALLENGES AND THAT IT'S
POSSIBLE THAT IF THERE WERE MORE
TIME TO CONSIDER ALTERNATIVES TO
THIS PROJECT THE YOU KNOW IT'S
POSSIBLE THAT AND I'M A LESS
COSTLY ALTERNATIVE COULD BE-
SUED IT THE STATUTORY. CHANGES
THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED TO ALLOW
FOR THIS THIS DEADLINE TO BE MET
ALSO SEE SIGNIFICANTLY LIMIT LET
LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT THESE ARE
JUST SOME REASONS WHY WE THINK
THAT THE- DEADLINE IS
PROBLEMATIC. AND FINALLY WE
FOUND THE FACILITY PROJECTS
WOULD BE EXTREMELY COSTLY TO
SCALE SPECIFICALLY WE ESTIMATE
THAT THE GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED
THREE HUNDRED SIXTY MILLION
LEASE REVENUE BOND- PROJECT.
WOULD REQUIRE THE STATE TO PAY
ABOUT TWENTY FIVE MILLION IN
ANNUAL DEBT SERVICE- EAMON'S FOR
TWENTY FIVE YEARS BEGINNING AS
EARLY AS TWENTY FIVE TWENTY SIX-
AND THE TOTAL COST OF THAT
PROJECT ALONE WOULD BE ABOUT SIX
HUNDRED AND EIGHTY MILLION- AND
AT THE END OF THAT TWENTY FIVE
YEARS STREAM OF PAYMENTS. TO
COMPLETE PROJECTS OF SIMILAR
SCOPE AT THE STATE'S THIRTY
OTHER PRISONS NOT CURRENTLY
SCHEDULED FOR TODAY DEACTIVATION
WOULD COST. OVER EIGHT HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS IN ANNUAL DEBT
SERVICE AT A TOTAL COST AROUND
TWENTY BILLION. A GENERAL FUND
OVER TWENTY FIVE YEARS THIS
WOULD BE A SIGNIFICANT FISCAL
COMMITMENT THAT APPEARS TO RUN
COUNTER TO LEGISLATIVE INTEREST
IN CURBING CURBING THE GROWTH OF
SPENDING ON STATE PRISONS- AND
IT ALSO RAISES SERIOUS CONCERNS
ABOUT WHETHER IT MAKES SENSE TO.
BEGIN DEVELOPING A MODEL THAT-
IT SUBMITS ITS INTENDED TO BE
SCALABLE BUT MAYBE SIMPLY NOT BE
DUE TO. A AND THE ASSOCIATED
COSTS. FINALLY COMMITTEE STAFF
INDICATED THAT IT MAY BE HELPFUL
FOR ME TO PROVIDE SOME. CONTEXT
SOME EXAMPLES FOR THE COMMITTEE
TO SORT OF SITUATE THIS PROJECT
AND THEN- BROADER'S SORT OF
TRENDS WE SEE IN CDCR CAPITAL
OUTLAY PROJECTS- AND THAT IS
VERY CHALLENGING TO DO IN TERMS
OF FINDING A COMPARABLE. PROJECT
BECAUSE WE DON'T KNOW WHAT THE
SCOPE IS SO WE REALLY COULDN'T-
SAY HOW THIS COMPARES AND COST
FOR EXAMPLE- TO OTHER PROJECTS
BUT- IN LOOKING AT RECENT
PROJECTS. THAT HAVE COME THROUGH
FOR CDC ARE THIS IS DEFINITELY
ON THE HIGHER END IN TERMS OF
COST- FOR EXAMPLE ONE OF THE
MORE- HIGH DOLLAR PROJECTS WE'VE
SEEN IN RECENT YEARS HAS BEEN A-
FIFTY BED MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS
FACILITY- AT THE CALIFORNIA.
INSTITUTION FOR MEN WHICH IS.
HAS A- TOTAL COST ESTIMATED
CURRENTLY OF AROUND A HUNDRED
AND THIRTY THREE MILLION WITH
REVENUE BOND- AND IN TERMS OF
THE TIMELINE. THIS PROJECT IS
CERTAINLY A LOT MORE AGGRESSIVE
AND THEN WHAT WE TYPICALLY SEE.
AND AGAIN USING THAT SAME
PROJECT AS AN EXAMPLE THAT WAS
INITIALLY AUTHORIZED IN TWENTY
SEVENTEEN AND IS JUST NOW MOVING
INTO THE CONSTRUCTION PHASE. SO
WHERE IS THIS PROJECT WOULD BE.
GOING FROM AUTHORIZATION TO
COMPLETION IN ABOUT TWO AND A
HALF YEARS AND IN ORDER TO DO SO
WOULD TAKE SOME PRETTY- A
REGULAR AND EXTRAORDINARY
PATENT. STATUTORY CHANGES. OF
THE LAKES THAT WE HAVE WE DON'T
TYPICALLY SEE FOR CDC ARE
PROJECTS- TO MOVING ON TO OUR
RECOMMENDATION WE DO RECOMMEND
REJECTING THE GOVERNOR'S CAPITAL
OUTLAY PROPOSALS AND THE
ASSOCIATED STATUTORY CHANGES-
AND GIVEN THE- CONCERNS THAT
I'VE NOTED HERE- HOWEVER WE DO
RECOMMEND REQUIRING THAT THE
DEPARTMENT REPORT. ON THE
DEVELOPMENT OF THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL GIVEN THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION DOES IS PLANNING
TO- DEVELOP IT AND THAT THE
GOVERNOR HAS CONVENE THIS
ADVISORY COUNCIL. WE THINK IT'LL
BE IMPORTANT FOR THE LEGISLATURE
TO HAVE KEY INFORMATION ON THE
DEVELOPMENT OF THAT MODEL TO
ENSURE THAT THE DEVELOPMENT IS
PROGRESSING IN A WAY THAT'S
CONSISTENT WITH LEGISLATIVE
PRIORITIES- AND TO ENSURE THAT
THE LEGISLATURE WILL HAVE FUTURE
AND FROM HAVE INFORMATION
NECESSARY TO. EVALUATE THE
MERITS OF FUTURE PROPOSALS
WHETHER BUDGET OR POLICY AS IT
RELATES TO THE CALIFORNIA MODEL.
SO WE RECOMMEND REQUIRING THAT
ADMINISTRATION TO REPORT BY
JANUARY TEN TWENTY TWENTY FOUR-
FINE THE OBJECTIVES OF THE MODEL
SO SPECIFICALLY. WHAT IS- DIDN'T
HOW WHAT OBJECTIVES IS THE
ADMINISTRATION ATTEMPTING TO
ACHIEVING HOW WOULD THOSE
FURTHER THE GOALS OF THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL- AS WELL AS HOW
IT HOW IT PRIORITIZE ANY TRADE
OFFS IN DEVELOPING THOSE
OBJECTIVES. THE REPORT SHOULD
ALSO DETAIL THE ADMINISTRATION'S
STRATEGY FOR DEVELOPING A MODEL
THAT IS BOTH EFFECTIVE AND
SCALABLE ADDED TV IN ACHIEVING
THE STATED OBJECTIVES- DAY IN
DOING SO IT SHOULD EXPLAIN TO
THE EXTENT ANY PARTICULAR
PRISONS ARE SELECTED AS A- PILOT
SITE WIDE THAT IS A STRATEGIC
CHOICE AND WHAT ALTERNATIVES
WERE CONSIDERED- AND SHOULD ALSO
DESCRIBE WHY- THE DEVELOPMENT
PROCESS. WOULD YIELD A STRATEGY
THAT IS ULTIMATELY SCALABLE
ACROSS THE SYSTEM. FINALLY WE
THINK THAT THE REPORT SHOULD
PROVIDE INFORMATION ON HOW CDC
ARE INVOLVED STAKEHOLDERS IN THE
MODEL DEVELOPMENT PROCESS
INCLUDING- HOW IT CONTINUES TO.
MAKE PLANS TO CONTINUE ENGAGING
STAKEHOLDERS IN KEEPING
STAKEHOLDERS INFORMED ON AN ON
GOING PROCESS AND WE WOULD NOTE
THAT. IN REQUIRING THIS REPORT
THE NFL A LEGISLATURE COULD
SPECIFY SPECIFIC- ELEMENTS THAT
WANTS TO SEE INCLUDED IN FOR
EXAMPLE THE LEDGE- THE
OBJECTIVES OR- OR SPECIFIED THAT
THE ADMINISTRATION SHOULD
CONSULT WITH CERTAIN
STAKEHOLDERS- AND THEN WE THINK
THAT THIS REPORT WOULD
ULTIMATELY BE USEFUL FOR THAT
THE LEGISLATURE- IN. DETERMINING
WHETHER IT WANTS TO PURSUE
FUTURE- ACTION AS IT RELATES TO
THE CALIFORNIA MODEL- EVEN AT
THAT POINT COULD REQUIRE
ADDITIONAL REPORTS SUCH AS ON
THE TIME LINE- IF AN EVALUATION
PLAN ETCETERA. REALLY THIS
REPORT IS ESSENTIALLY WOULD BE
REQUIRING THE ADMINISTRATION TO
PROVIDE- WHAT WE WOULD KIND OF
HAVE EXPECTED TO SEE SUPPORTING
A PROPOSAL LIKE THIS- SO MOVING
ON TO BRIEF COMMENTS ON THE
BOARD OF PAROLE HEARINGS-
PROPOSAL. FAD WE DON'T HAVE A
RECOMMENDATION HERE REALLY JUST
A COUPLE QUICK ISSUES TO
CONSIDER THIS IS THE- FOUR POINT
TWO MILLION GENERAL FUND IN THE
BUDGET YEAR DECREASING TO TWO
POINT SIX- FOR FOUR WITH FOUR
DIFFERENT COMPONENTS-
ESSENTIALLY THIS PROPOSAL WOULD
MAINTAIN EXISTING SERVICE
LEVELS. WE WOULD JUST NOTE THAT
TO THE COMPONENT COMPONENTS OF
THIS PROPOSAL. AND MAINTAINING A
PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZE ONE TIME
INCREASE IN PAY FOR STATE
APPOINTED ATTORNEYS AS WELL AS-
OKAY CONTRACT WITH PAROLE
JUSTICE WORKS THAT- PER TO
PROVIDE TRAINING AND MENTORSHIP
TO STATE APPOINTED ATTORNEYS
WERE TO- AREAS THAT CAT WE
LOOKED AT IN A RECENT REPORT ON
PROMOTING EQUITY IN THE POOL
HEARING PROCESS WHICH WE
DISCUSSED EARLIER THIS SPRING.
WITH THIS COMMITTEE- SO WE JUST
WANTED TO NOTE THAT- ARE ARE FAR
AS ARE AS IS CONSISTENT WITH OUR
FINDINGS IN THAT REPORT- WITH
THE STATE STILL DOESN'T HAVE
ENOUGH DATA AND EVALUATION- IS
COLLECTED. AT THIS POINT TO KNOW
WHETHER THOSE- CHANGES HAVE BEEN
AFFECTED SO HAVE BEEN EFFECTIVE-
SO THE LEGISLATURE COULD
CONSIDER REQUIRING AN EVALUATION
OF THESE CHANGES BEFORE
AUTHORIZING ADDITIONAL FUNDING.
THOUGH AN EVALUATION. WHAT'S
INCLUDED IN THE PROPOSAL THANK
YOU AND I WILL PASS IT OFF TO MY
COLLEAGUE TO DISCUSS A FEW
ADDITIONAL PROPOSALS. MADAM
THANK YOU MADAM CHAIR AND
SENATOR MY NAME'S ORLANDO
SANCHEZ WITH ALIA LAYO I'LL BE
COVERING THE ISSUES ON PAGE FIVE
OF THE ATTENDING HIS PHONE AND
FOLLOW ALONG. STARTING WITH THE
COVERT NINETEEN BUDGET CHANGE
PROPOSAL THE MAY REVISION. A
REDUCES BY FORTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS- FOR COVERT NINETEEN
RELATED SPENDING AND WHILE SOME
OF THE FUNDING WILL BE NECESSARY
TCR DID NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE
JUSTIFICATION ON THE FOR
REQUEST. AS SUCH WE ARE
RECOMMENDING THE SUB COMMITTEE
HAVE CDCR PROVIDE ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION. JUSTIFYING THE FOR
REQUEST IN ADDITION THE
LEGISLATURE COULD CONSIDER.
HAVING THE DEPARTMENT REPORT BY
JANUARY TENTH NEXT YEAR
INFORMATION ON HOW THE
DEPARTMENT HAS SPENT THE FUNDS.
AREN'T SUCH AS- IT NUMBER OF
PEOPLE TESTED STAFF TESTED AND
CORBIN NINETEEN RELATED OVERTIME
USAGE. I'M IN REGARDS TO THE-
CONTRACT MEDICAL THAT THIS IS
THE ROUGHLY FORTY MILLION I'M
GOING TO FOR A PROJECTED DEFICIT
IN THE DEPARTMENT'S. CONTRACT
MEDICAL BUDGET WE ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT HAVING SUFFICIENT FUNDS FOR
CONTRACT MEDICAL SERVICES IS
IMPORTANT FOR THE DEPARTMENT TO
PROVIDE ADEQUATE MEDICAL CARE.
HOWEVER WE RECOMMEND APPROVING
THESE ON A ONE TIME BASIS
INSTEAD OF AN ON GOING BASIS AS
PROPOSED BY THE ADMINISTRATION-
THIS SHOULD STILL PROVIDE
SUFFICIENT TIME FOR THE TO. THE
DEPARTMENT THE ADMINISTRATION TO
DEVELOP A NEW POPULATION BASED.
METHODOLOGY AND WOULD LIKE TO
NOTE THAT THE ADMINISTRATION HAS
PREVIOUSLY RECOGNIZED THIS FLAW
IN THE METHODOLOGY THIS DOES NOT
PRESENTED A SOLUTION OR PROVIDED
INFORMATION ON HOW IT IS
MAXIMIZING. THE MEDICARE
REIMBURSEMENTS AT THE STATE IS
ELIGIBLE FOR. ACCORDINGLY WE
ALSO RECOMMEND REGARDLESS OF
WHETHER THIS IS THE FUNDING IS
APPROVED ON A ONE TIMER ON GOING
BASIS. REQUIRING CDCR TO PROVIDE
A REPORT BY JANUARY TENTH OF
NEXT YEAR THAT ONE SPECIFIES IN
DETAIL THE NEW FUNDING
METHODOLOGY FOR CONTRACT
MEDICAL. TO PROVIDE STATE OF
THAT WILL ALLOW THE LEGISLATURE
TO HAVE SUFFICIENT INFORMATION
TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE
DEPARTMENT IS MAXIMIZING ITS
FEDERAL FUNDS- IT QUALIFIES FOR
AND THIRD ANY STRATEGIES THE
DEPARTMENT IS TAKING- TO
MAXIMIZE. THE FUNDS IT IS
ELIGIBLE FOR. THE MOVING ON TO A
THIRD PROPOSAL ALSO LISTED IN
THE MAY REVISION. IS INCLUDES-
ROUGHLY BETWEEN THREE AND FIVE
MILLION LIMITED TERM IN THE
UPCOMING BUDGET YEARS. A FOR THE
DEPARTMENT- BUILD- BILLING
SYSTEM FOR THE CALIMESA JUSTICE
INVOLVED INITIATIVE- AND FOR
THIS WE RECOMMEND. ARE
CONSISTENT WITH OTHER
INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROJECTS
THAT THE LEGISLATURE PROVIDE ONE
YEAR FUNDING AND THE DEPARTMENT
CAN COME FORWARD WITH-
ADDITIONAL REQUESTS FOR FUNDING
IN THE FUTURE AS NEEDED AND THIS
IS CONSISTENT WITH OTHER IT
PROJECTS. AT THE LEGISLATURE
PROVES. AND LASTLY MY COMMENTS
ARE IN REGARDS TO THE
COMPREHENSIVE EMPLOYEE HEALTH
PROGRAM. THE MAY REVISION SHOWS-
REFLECTS A REDUCTION OF ABOUT
SEVEN SEVEN POINT SEVEN MILLION-
FROM THE JANUARY PROPOSAL. AND
WE RECOMMEND APPROVING THE
FUNDING ON A ONE TIME BASIS
GIVEN THE CONTINUED PRESENCE OF
COVERED NINETEEN THE STATE'S
PRISONS. BECAUSE OF THE ONGOING
NEED FOR THE PROGRAM.
PARTICULARLY FOR- OTHER DISEASES
IS STILL UNCLEAR- CONSISTENT
WITH OUR JANUARY PROPOSAL OR
RECOMMENDATION WE RECOMMEND
REQUIRING THE DEPARTMENT TO
REPORT DATA THAT WILL ALLOW THE
LEGISLATURE TO DETERMINE WHETHER
THE NEED IS NECESSARY ON AN
ONGOING BASIS BEYOND THE BUDGET
YEAR AS PROPOSED. THANK YOU THAT
CONCLUDES OUR REMARKS I WOULD BE
HAPPY TO TAKE QUESTIONS ON ANY
OF THE OTHER ITEMS. THANK YOU
VERY MUCH I HAVE A COUPLE
QUESTIONS AND THEN I'LL PASS IT
ON TO CENTER CITY YARD- SINCE
THE- POPULATION OF THE
INCARCERATED- EVERY YEAR IS
GOING DOWN BY. MAXIMALLY TWO
THOUSAND- DID THE HAS
ADMINISTRATION CONSIDERED
ADDITIONAL FACILITY CLOSURES
ESPECIALLY DURING THIS TIME OF
BUDGET. ISSUES. HI LENITION OF
THE PERMANENT FINANCE THANK YOU
BEYOND WHAT'S BEEN PREVIOUSLY
ANNOUNCED THERE ARE NO
ADDITIONAL CLOSURES CONSIDERED.
COULD YOU TELL ME WHY THAT'S
NOT. BEING CONSIDERED. SO THE
CURRENT CLOSURES THAT HAVE BEEN
ANNOUNCED- WHICH INCLUDE
CALIFORNIA CORRECTIONAL CENTER
CALIFORNIA CITY- AS WELL AS
CHUCKWALLA VALLEY STATE PRISON
THE SIXTH- FACILITIES
DEACTIVATING. TAKES US THROUGH
MARCH OF TWENTY TWENTY FIVE SO
WHICH IS A LITTLE JUST LESS THAN
TWO YEARS FROM NOW SO THE
ADMINISTRATION IS TRYING TO WORK
THROUGH THOSE CLOSURES HOWEVER
WE RATE REMAIN COMMITTED TO
RIGHT SIZING THAT CDCR PRISON.
SYSTEM AND CONTINUE TO LOOK AT
WHAT'S POSSIBLE TO BE
DEACTIVATED IN A SAFE MANNER.
OKAY THANK YOU- I JUST. IF YOU
WOULD TELL ME IF THE EXPANSION
OF THE TELE MENTAL HEALTH- IS
THAT A RESPONSE TO. ISSUES IN
THE COLEMAN LITIGATION. SORRY
TRY TO DO THIS IN. IN ORDER.
SENATOR SIMPLY- THANK YOU. HELLO
SENATORS AND COMMITTEE MY NAME
IS ON A MAP AND DEPUTY DIRECTOR
OF STATEWIDE MENTAL HEALTH FOR
CDC ARE. THE REAL GOAL BEHIND
THE TELLEMENT TO HELP
DEVELOPMENT TO IS JUST TO
ADDRESS THAT THE EFFECTS OF THE
REELS- STAFFING SHORTAGES THAT
WE'VE BEEN FACING STATEWIDE AND
REALLY NATIONWIDE. THE NUMBER OF
PSYCHIATRISTS WE THAT IS ALWAYS
BEEN LOW AND THAT'S GOT A LITTLE
BIT BETTER THROUGH OUR TELESALES
COUNTRY PROGRAM WHICH HAS BEEN
IN DEVELOPMENT FOR ABOUT TEN
YEARS. UNFORTUNATELY DURING
COVERED THE NUMBER OF OUR
PSYCHOLOGISTS AND SOCIAL WORKERS
DROPPED BY ALMOST A THIRD- AND
YOU SEE THE SAME THING AT KAISER
AND OTHER PLACES IT'S JUST THAT.
EVERYONE COMPETING FOR SMALLER
AND SMALLER PIECES OF THE SAME
HIGH UNTIL WE GET MORE PEOPLE
GOING TO THE EDUCATIONAL TRACKS
SO THE SUCCESS WE HAD IN
HOLISTIC HIGH TREE REALLY HELPED
US PROVIDE CARE FOR A MUCH WIDER
SLICE OF OUR POPULATION THAT
NEEDS MEDICATIONS AND THINGS
LIKE THAT- THE PSYCHOLOGY AND
SOCIAL WORKER ASPECTS OF. TEL
MENTAL HEALTH ARE REALLY GOING
TO HELP US WITH THE THERAPY AND
THE- OTHER FORMS OF GROUPS AND
THINGS THAT WE CAN OFFER TO OUR
PATIENTS. THROUGH THROUGH THOSE
CLASSIFICATIONS. SO WE ARE
WE'RE- REALLY ADDRESSING THAT
AND WE'VE HAD THIS IN MIND SINCE
BEFORE THE COURT ORDERS. OR
ANYTHING LIKE THAT THANK. COULD

THESE TELEHEALTH APPOINTMENTS
TAKEN YOU KNOW WHAT'S THE
PHYSICAL SPACE LIKE AND- HOW TO
ENSURE CONFIDENTIALITY OF THAT.
OF THOSE APPOINTMENTS YEAH FOR
SURE AND GOOD GOOD QUESTIONS AND
I SAW PATIENTS TO TELL US I CAN
OUR SYSTEM FOR OVER SIX YEARS SO
DEFINITELY CAN ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS. THAT YOU GOT THERE.
WE HAVE CURRENTLY IN THE PRISONS
THERE'S AN OFFICE FOR THE
CLINICIAN AND I WOULD SAY IN
MOST CASES THE PATIENT IS
BROUGHT TO THE OFFICE OR- AT
LEAST THAT'S WHAT THE PATIENT IS
SEEN. BY THE CLINICIAN AND THEN
IN OTHER CASES THERE'S ANOTHER
OFFICE CLOSER TO WHERE THE
PATIENTS LIVE AND THINGS WHERE
THE WHERE THE CLINICIAN CAN GO.
SO WHEN WE HAVE THOSE VACANCIES
WE CAN USE EITHER THE OFFICE
THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN DEDICATED
OR THE ROOM THAT'S CLOSER TO
WHERE THEIR- THE PATIENTS LIVE-
AND WE BASICALLY WE PUT IN THE
DEVICE THERE CALL THE D. X.
EIGHTY. HI IT SAID CISCO DEVICE
THAT HAS A DEDICATED SORT OF
LINE FOR TELL US LIKE HIGH TREES
SO IT'S HIPPA COMPLIANT YOU
CAN'T ACTUALLY RECORD OR EVEN
SCREEN CAPTURE THE WAY YOU COULD
ON A NORMAL COMPUTER JUST. YOU
KNOW TAKE A VIDEO OF WHAT'S
GOING ON ON THE SCREEN- IT
ACTUALLY GOES THROUGH A WHOLE
SEPARATE KIND OF- PORTAL FOR
THAT. SO IT SAYS WE'RE WE'RE
VERY CAREFUL TO ONLY USE HIPPA
COMPLIANT SOFTWARE AND HARDWARE
OF COURSE. AND THIS IS BEEN
REALLY THAT THE WORKHORSE OF OUR
SYSTEM SO THE- CORRECTIONS
OFFICER WILL ASK FOR THE PATIENT
TO THE ROOM. AND THE PAGE WILL
ENTER THE ROOM TO ROOM TYPICALLY
AT THE DOOR TYPICALLY HAS A
WINDOW. TO WHICH SHE WOULD BE
WATCHING FOR. ANYTHING THAT
MIGHT HAPPEN TO SOMEONE IN
PERSON. IN THIS CASE IT'S THE D.
X. EIGHTY AND A MEDICAL
ASSISTANT AT THE MEDICAL
ASSISTANT SERVES AS A TELLER
PERCENTER. THERE'S A LOT OF
THINGS THAT YOU GET FROM A FACE
TO FACE EVALUATION THAT YOU
MIGHT NEED A LITTLE HELP. WITH
INTEL MENTAL HEALTH SO IF THE
PATIENT IS. FOR EXAMPLE- SMELLS
VERY BAD TO HIM GET THAT TELLS
YOU SOMETHING ABOUT THEIR
HYGIENE THAT YOU MAY MISS IF
YOU'RE NOT THERE IN PERSON SO.
THE TELEVISION- CAN TELL YOU
THAT THEY CAN TELL YOU IF.
SOMEONE STANDING OUTSIDE THE
DOOR WAS HAVING A GREAT TIME
PLAYING FOOTBALL AND THEN HE
COMES IN AND SAYS THAT I CAN
CAN'T. MOVE OF MY CHRONIC. OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT. REALLY NICE
KIND OF LINK TO THE CLINICIANS.
I WILL SAY THAT OUR OUR TELL US
LIKE HIGH INTEREST WORK WITH OUR
CLINICIANS AND GET A LOT OF THAT
INFORMATION TO OTHER PEOPLE IN
THE PRISON AS WELL SO IT'S NOT
JUST THE TELEPRINTER BUT- IT'S A
NICE. PIECE OF IT. SO THAT THE
CONFIDENTIALITY IS BASICALLY THE
SAME AS IT IS FOR ON SITE PEOPLE
THAT THE PERSON WOULD BE. IN A
ROOM WITH THE MONITOR IN AND IN
THE SAME WAY THEY WOULD BE IN A
ROOM WITH THE CLINICIAN. OKAY
OKAY. GREAT. GOOD- OKAY- I WANT
TO ASK YOU ABOUT THE- IS THIS
LAST YEAR- I WAS VISITED SEVERAL
TIMES BY. PSYCHIATRISTS THAT
WORK IN THE PRISONS. AND THE
MAIN ISSUE WAS- THE SALARIES
WERE FAR TOO LOW. AND AND AT THE
SAME TIME- I WOULD SAY SORT OF
LIKE TEMP. TEMP STATUS TYPE-
PSYCHIATRISTS WERE WERE COMING
IN AND- WHENEVER THERE WAS A- A
NEED. BUT THE TEMP PSYCHIATRIST
REALLY COULDN'T. ADDRESS THE ON
GOING- PERSON- BECAUSE THEY ONLY
CAME IN AS NEEDED. ONE SHOT DEAL
COULD YOU. TELL ME MORE ABOUT
THAT AND- IS THAT. YOU KNOW AN
ISSUE LIKE THEY RAISED IT WAS
THERE WAS A REAL ISSUE. SUNDA
THERE'S A REQUEST TO INCREASE
THE SALARIES OF THE
PSYCHIATRISTS- AND PROVIDE THE
KIND OF COMPENSATION THAT WOULD
MAKE IT COMPETITIVE FOR THEM TO
BE ABLE TO STATE WORKING IN THE
IN THE PRISON. YEAH FOR SURE AND
I'LL SAY AS WELL THAT I WAS A
PROUD MEMBER OF THE UNION FOR
SIX YEARS THAT YOU A. P. AND WE
WORK VERY CLOSELY WITH THEM AND
WE REALLY APPRECIATE THEIR
PARTNERSHIP AND ALL THESE
DISCUSSIONS- IT IN OUR SYSTEM.
YOU KNOW EVEN BEFORE AB DE 8%
INFLATION AHEAD ALL THAT YOU
KNOW THE- IT QUITTING OR THE OR
THE GREAT RESIGNATION AND ALL OF
THESE THINGS THAT HAPPENED
DURING COVE IT IT'S INCREDIBLY
DIFFICULT TO KEEP UP WITH
SALARIES OF THESE PROFESSIONALS
WHEN I WENT TO MEDICAL SCHOOL-
AND DOES PSYCHIATRY WAS ONE OF
THE LOWEST DEMAND SPECIALTIES
AND NOW FROM SPEAKING TO PEOPLE
IN ACADEMIA. IT'S ONE OF THE
MOST COMPETITIVE BECAUSE THEY
KNOW THAT THEY'RE GOING TO HAVE
A THOUSAND PEOPLE SEEKING THEIR
WORK ONCE ONCE THEY GRADUATE- SO
YEAH WE CONSTANTLY. STRUGGLE TO
KEEP UP IN GENERAL WITH. THE
PROGRESS IN IN IN THE REST OF
THE WORLD I WILL SAY THAT IN OUR
SYSTEM WE DO TREAT OUR
PSYCHIATRIST- PRETTY WELL WE DO
OUR BEST TO TAKE CARE OF THEM
AND A BIG PART OF THAT HAS BEEN
TELL US A COUNTRY I WOULD SAY-
CANNOT REPLACE ON SITE AND I
JUST WANNA BE VERY CLEAR ABOUT
THAT THAT'S NOT OUR INTENTION
ANYWAY. WE CURRENTLY HAVE- HI I
NEED A VERY ROUGHLY DIVIDED UP
INTO THREE BUCKETS. SO WE HAVE
ONSITE CIVIL SERVICE STEP FULLY
EMPLOYED DAY CONTRIBUTED CALPERS
THE WHOLE THING- WE HAVE-
TALISAY CHI TREE. AND CURRENTLY
EVERY MEMBER OF TELUS PSYCHIATRY
ABOUT EIGHTY FIVE PSYCHIATRISTS
ARE CIVIL SERVICE AS WELL SO
THEY ALL. YOU KNOW CONTRIBUTE IN
THE EXACT SAME WAY. AND THEN WE
HAVE WHAT WE CALL REGISTRY OR
CONTRACTORS THAT THE- MORE
TEMPORARY WORK THAT YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT. IT'S AN
INTERESTING GROUP- THE RATE OF
PAY IS DIFFERENT AT DIFFERENT
INSTITUTIONS DEPENDING ON THE
NEED AND WE DO OUR BEST TO
BALANCE THAT OUT SO THAT WE'RE
NOT- YOU KNOW WASTING ANYTHING.
BUT THAT THAT POPULATION WE HAVE
SOME OF THOSE REGISTRY DOCTORS
HAVE BEEN DOING THAT JOB FOR
YEARS AND YEARS THAT YOU KNOW IT
AS LONG OR LONGER THAN SOME OF
OUR CIVIL SERVICE- AND THEN AS
YOU SAID THERE'S A POPULATION.
THAT IS BECAUSE MORE FLEETING TO
KIND OF COME IN WHEN THE WORK IS
THERE AND THEN THEY MOVED OUT TO
OTHER PLACES- OUR OUR GOAL IS
CERTAINLY TO HAVE EVERYBODY. IN
THE SYSTEM THAT WAY THEY HAVE
SKIN IN THE GAME YOU KNOW
THEY'RE ALL SORT OF COMMITTED TO
IT TO THE PATIENT CARE- AND-
TELL IS ONE OF THE WAYS THAT WE
CAN BE COMPETITIVE WITH OTHER
OTHER AGENCIES- IT'S- YOU KNOW.
WE DON'T OFFER THAT IT'S JUST
GONNA LOSE EVERY TIME- KIZER HAS
A TELEHEALTH OFFERED FROM ACROSS
THE COUNTRY YOU CAN CALL INTO
CALIFORNIA AS LONG AS YOU'RE
LICENSED AND THINGS. WE DON'T DO
THAT IN IN OUR SYSTEM OF COURSE
BUT IT'S- IT'S SOMETHING THAT.
WE'RE CONSTANTLY AWARE THAT
WE'RE TRYING TO COMPETE WITH. I
APPRECIATE THAT YOU KNOW HOW
YOU'RE TACKLING ALL THESE ISSUES
AND PARTICULARLY TO PROVIDE THE
QUALITY SERVICE- AND MENTAL
HEALTH. SERVICES I WOULD URGE
YOU I UNDERSTAND THERE WAS- THE
PSYCHIATRIST SCOTT- THE IN
PERSON PSYCHIATRISTS. GOD PAY
DIFFERENTIAL IN FIVE FACILITIES-
NOT ALL THE FACILITIES I'M NOT
SURE WHAT DISTINGUISHES ONE FROM
THE OTHER. BUT IT SEEMS TO ME
FOR TRYING TO BE COMPETITIVE FOR
TRYING TO. REALLY ADDRESS THEIR
NEEDS SO THEY COULD STAY WITHIN
OUR PRISON SYSTEM- THAT. DOES IT
APPEAR TO. HELP US. I WOULD
CERTAINLY AGREE WITH YOU THAT
THAT OUR CLINICIANS ARE
INCREDIBLY HARDWORKING AND I
WOULD LIKE TO DEFINITELY PAY THE
MORE AS WELL. IN IN THIS CASE
THE FIVE INSTITUTIONS WHERE THE
IN PATIENT SETTINGS- THERE'D
THAT MOST SEVERELY ILL PATIENTS
IN THE STATE AND JUST. A REALLY
CHALLENGING- POPULATION TO WORK
WITH THEIR VERY REWARDING AS
WELL I'LL SAY BUT THAT ARE VERY
CHALLENGING AS WELL AND THOSE
ARE THE PLACES WE ARE HAVING THE
BIGGEST PROBLEM- SORT OF BAD
HIRING AND FILLING THOSE EMPTY
POSITIONS. AND THEY HAPPEN TO BE
THE POSITIONS THAT THE PATIENTS
THAT NEED IT THE MOST SO WE WERE
ABLE TO KIND OF MOVE FORWARD
WITH THAT WHICH WE'RE VERY PROUD
OF THIS WELL THAT THAT 15% TO
SAY. THESE PATIENTS NEED IT THE
MOST THEY'RE HARDER WORK SO YOU
KNOW WE'LL TRY TO GIVE YOU MORE
THERE. YEAH YEAH YES PALESTINIAN
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE I JUST
WANTED TO NOTE THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION CONTINUES TO WORK
WITH THE DEPARTMENT ON THESE
TYPES OF COMPENSATION ISSUES
THEY ARE SUBJECT TO COLLECTIVE
BARGAINING AND THAT PROCESS IS
ACTUALLY HAPPENING NOW. SO I
JUST WANTED TO ASK THAT FOR THE
RECORD THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK
YOU THANK YOU DOCTOR VERY MUCH
FOR- FOR ALL. THAT YOU DO-
SENATE. I HAVE A FEW MORE
QUESTIONS BUT SEVEN PLEASE RATE
THANK YOU. SO I WANTED TO TALK A
LITTLE BETTER ABOUT THE SAN
QUENTIN REHABILITATION CENTER
WHO WANTS TO. THANK YOU FOR
COMING UP. SO ONE OF THE THINGS
AT A COST WHAT WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT THIS HIS WE'VE WE'VE
DECIDED TO SHORTEN THIS TIMELINE
WE WANT TO. BUILD A BUILDING TO
HERE'S ALL THE WAY FROM CARE
DOWN HAVE PLANNED TEAR DOWN AND
REBUILD WHICH SEEMS- PROBABLY
THE MOST. UNREALISTIC BUT IN
ORDER TO DO THAT I KNOW THAT
SOME THINGS HAVE TO BE AFTER
KERR ONE OF THE THINGS YOU
MENTIONED. WAS EXCLUDING IT FROM
SEQUEL. SO THE AREA WERE SAN
QUENTIN IS IT'S PROBABLY ONE OF
THE MOST ECOLOGICALLY SENSITIVE
AREAS AROUND SAN LEANDRO ALL
THAT COASTLINE THERE- AND THEN
PLUS THE PENINSULA WHERE. WHERE
THIS IS ACTUALLY ON- HOW DO WE
JUSTIFY AND- EXEMPTING THIS
PROJECT FROM SYKORA. WHEN THE
REST OF THE WORLD HOUSE TO
COMPLY WITH SEQUEL BUT UP WITH.
THE EXTENDED. EXTENDED TIMES IT
TAKES TO GET THROUGH THE PROCESS
AND BUILD- DAVE LEWIS- DIRECTOR
OF SO THE PLANE CONSTRUCTION
MANAGEMENT FOR CDC ARE- WITH
THE- RAPID TIME FRAME THAT WAS
LAID OUT FOR HER BY THE GOVERNOR
TO COMPLETE THIS- A NUMBER OF
DECISIONS WERE MADE- INCLUDING
THAT WE REPLACING AN EXISTING
BUILDING- AND SO. THE
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT OF
CONSTRUCTING IN THIS SPACE-
WOULD CERTAINLY SEEM TO BE LESS
SIGNIFICANT THAN A NEW BUILD IN-
IN A NEW LOCATION WHICH WOULD
HAVE EXTENDED THE TIME AND
CERTAINLY- WOULD HAVE REQUIRED
MORE EXTENSIVE ENVIRONMENTAL
REVIEW. AND THAT WAS THE REASON
THAT WE'RE SEEKING AN EXEMPTION
FROM SEE KAI HANSEN THAT WOULD
MAKE A LOT OF SENSE TO ME-
BECAUSE I THINK I'VE FIVE
REPEATED THAT VERY THING- OVER
THE YEARS. BECAUSE THAT WHEN
WE'RE REPLACING A DAM WHICH IS
GOING EXACT SAME PLACE AT THE
DAM WAS. AND THEY STILL HAVE TO
GO TO SEE. SO IT DOESN'T SEEM
LIKE THE LOGIC FROM WHY WE
SHOULD THE SURPRISE YOU WE
SHOULD BE EXEMPTING THIS PROJECT
FROM SYKORA VERSES WHEN WE'RE
BUILDING. A REBUILDING A- IT'S
REPLACING THE EXACT SAME
STRUCTURE IN THE EXACT SAME
PLACE WHICH IS THIS ARGUMENT.
BUT FLYING IN THE FACE OF THAT
IS OUR CONTINUAL DEMANDS THAT WE
HAVE THOSE TYPE OF PROJECTS GO
THROUGH AND- CREATE. SOMETIMES
FIFTEEN YEARS OF DELAY. GOING TO
A PROJECT. TRYING TO GET A
PROJECT DONE IT'S DESPERATELY
NEEDED LEVEES DAMS THINGS LIKE
THAT- SO I THINK YOU CAN BE
MIGHT KIND OF GET THE- I
UNDERSTAND A LITTLE BIT- WHY.
I'M A LITTLE SKEPTICAL ABOUT WHY
THIS THIS PROJECT GETS TO SKIP
SYKORA- I AM A BIG FAN BY THE
WAY OF ARE. TURNING OUR
REHABILITATION MAKING CAR
REHABILITATION EFFORTS A LOT
BETTER- AND- BUT I JUST. FEEL
LIKE THIS PROJECT IS BEING
RUSHED TO THREE HUNDRED SIXTY
MILLION DOLLARS SEEMS LIKE UP
AND THAT'S A BIG NUMBER. AND AND
PART OF THAT IF YOU'RE DOING
DESIGN BUILD IS PUSHING IT
TIMELINE AND ALSO. I WOULD BE
ARE YOU BE PROVIDING INCENTIVES
FOR OUR PART WE ARE ANTICIPATING
PROVIDING INCENTIVES. FOR THE
BUILDER TO. BASICALLY WORK
AROUND THE CLOCK TO GET THIS
DONE IN TWO YEARS IN A ROW EVEN
BETTER TAXPAYERS GOING TO PAY
FOR THAT- YEAH. WE HAVE IT
OBVIOUSLY DONE THE CONTRACT YET
BUT NO WE DON'T ANTICIPATE
PROVIDING INCENTIVES FOR THE
TIME FRAME. WE ANTICIPATE THAT-
THE PROCESS THAT WE'VE
DESIGNATED THE PROGRESSIVE
DESIGN BUILD ALLOWS A LOT OF
FLEXIBILITY I AM ON THE PART OF
THE CONTRACTOR AND STATE- TO
MAKE DECISIONS THAT ACCELERATE
THE CONSTRUCTION- FOR EXAMPLE
THIS BUILDING WAS BUILT USING
PROGRESSIVE DESIGN BUILD AND
THE- THE MODEL THAT'S THEIR
ALLOWS- FOR A LOT OF. THOSE
THINGS TO BE BUILT INTO THE
PROCESS- AS YOU GO THROUGH IT.
THANK ALL RIGHT- I WANTED TO
MOVE ON TO- WAS THE OTHER ISSUE
THAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN HERE. I
FELT. THE PRESIDENT CLOSING ONCE
ANSWER PRESENT CLOSING QUESTIONS
. BACKUP. YES SO WE- WE GO
THROUGH A COUPLE OF THE YOU KNOW
WHAT THE WHAT WE'RE GETTING
SAVINGS FROM HUNDRED SEVENTY
MILLION ANNUALLY FROM VARIOUS
FACILITY DEACTIVATION CENTER
FIFTY FIVE FROM. CALIFORNIA CITY
BUT THEN WE GET TO CHUCKLE
WALLETS UNSPECIFIED FUTURE
SAVINGS HAVE WE NOT BEEN ABLE TO
HASH THAT OUT YET ABOUT WHAT'S
GONNA AND HOW THAT'S GOING TO
SAY HOW MUCH THAT'S GOING TO
SAVE VERSES PERHAPS SOME OF THE
OTHERS BECAUSE I THINK AS YOU
KNOW- THIS IS PRETTY
CONTROVERSIAL DOWN IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA. WE HAVE CITIES THAT
HIGHLY DEPEND ON THIS FACILITY
AND THE CITIES THAT DON'T WANT
THEIR FACILITY ANYMORE AND THEIR
FACILITIES WAY OLDER AND HAS THE
MUCH MORE LAND VALUE AND CAN BE
REHABILITATED VERSES THIS ONE.
SO I'M I'M KIND OF CURIOUS. WHAT
KIND OF SAVINGS. INSTEAD THEY
MUST BE THINKING THEY'RE GOING
TO GET FROM CLOSING THIS
FACILITY VERSES- YOU KNOW THE
NORCO FACILITY. MANY SHREDDED
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE- THE
SAVINGS HAVE NOT YET BEEN
CALCULATED BECAUSE I TOOK WHILE
ABOUT A STATE PRISON WOULD NOT
BE SCHEDULED TO CLOSE UNTIL
MARCH OF TWENTY TWENTY FIVE THAT
PROPOSAL WOULDN'T COME FORWARD
AND TELL- NEXT BUDGET CYCLE.
OKAY WELL I UNDERSTAND THAT BUT
IF THEY'RE THEY'RE THEY'VE
ALREADY GOT IN THE PIPELINE THEN
SOME OF THAT EVALUATION SHOULD
BE DONE AND WE SHOULD BE
KNOWING- WHAT THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN CLOSING THAT FACILITY
VERSUS CLOSING ANOTHER FACILITY.
BECAUSE THAT'S GOING TO MAKE A
DETERMINATION I THINK THAT THAT
WAYS AND SO WE SHOULD HAVE SOME
NUMBERS. THAT MODEL OF PLANE CC
ARE AT SO. WE ARE ONLY LOOKING
AT CHUCKWALLA VALLEY STATE
PRISON RIGHT NOW SO THAT AS WELL
AS BEEN ANNOUNCED BY THE
GOVERNOR AND THAT IS WHAT WE'RE
MOVING FORWARD TOWARD CLOSURE BY
MARCH OF TWENTY TWENTY FIVE. SO
AS MISS EACH MODEL SAID WE WILL
BEGIN THOSE CALCULATIONS OVER
THIS NEXT SUMMER TO PREPARE FOR
JAN TENTH SO THERE. WE AREN'T
DOING A COMPARISON OF SAVINGS AT
THIS POINT I JUST THAT WHEN THEY
DID THE EVALUATION PROCESS OF
WHO'S CLOSING WHO'S NOT. THAT
THAT WOULD HAVE HAD TO BEEN DONE
I MEAN YOU THAT HAS TO WEIGH
INTO. THE EQUATION OF WHERE OUR
BEST BANG FOR OUR BUCK INCLUDING
FACILITIES. BECAUSE CHUCKWALLA
IS A NEWER FACILITY IN HERE
WE'RE BUILDING A NEWER FACILITY
TO DO A REHAB. WHEN WE ALREADY
HAVE NEWER FACILITIES COULD
PROBABLY BE CONVERTED. AND USED
IN A IN A- MORE. BUT IT A LOT
MORE A LESS EXPENSIVE WAY. TO BE
ABLE TO ACHIEVE WHAT WE'RE
TRYING TO ACHIEVE WITH THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL. UNDERSTOOD I.
THE SAVINGS IS ONE COMPONENT OF
IT IS WE'RE LOOKING AT THE
ABILITY TO HOUSE A CERTAIN TYPE
OF POPULATION REHABILITATIVE
PROGRAMMING. OF THE AGE OF THE
FACILITY THERE'S A LOT OF OTHER
FACTORS THAT GO INTO IT SO- AS
THAT DETERMINATION WAS MADE TO
ALL IT WAS THE ONE. THAT WAS
ANNOUNCED TO BE CLOSED AS PART
OF THIS NEXT ROUND OF PRISON
CLOSURES ALL RIGHT WELL I'M NOT
GOING TO BE LABOUR'S YEAH BUT I
WOULD LIKE TO. I THINK WE'LL
HAVE TO SIT DOWN AND TALK ABOUT
THAT BECAUSE THEY'RE HUGE
IMPACTS TO THAT NOBODY KNOWS HOW
WE ARRIVED AT THAT- AND SO I
THINK- THERE'S A LOT OF. LOT OF
PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT. ONE A
LITTLE BIT MORE INPUT INTO HOW
THAT PROCESS CAME TO BE. AND AND
- WHITE SO INFLEXIBLE SO. ANYWAY
THOSE ARE THE QUESTIONS I HAVE
FOR THAT SECTION THANK YOU VERY
MUCH S. THANK YOU SENATOR- I
THINK YOU'RE ASKING. SOME
QUESTIONS THAT WE SIMILARLY HAVE
ASKED ON THIS COMMITTEE FOR THE
LAST TWO THREE YEARS SO I'M GLAD
YOU'RE A RAISING THAT- WELL ON
THE- SENT CLINTON. A LITTLE BIT
MORE ABOUT IT- THERE'S OBVIOUSLY
ISSUES AS THE ONE THAT THE
SENATOR JUST MENTIONED WHICH IS.
THREE TO SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS
ON THE COST OF ONE BUILDING ONE
INSTITUTION USING THE PUBLIC
BONDING AND WE SO WE HEARD
ALREADY WHAT THAT'S GONNA MEAN
IN TERMS OF INTEREST AT. TWENTY
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS- TWENTY
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS IN
ESTIMATED ANNUAL DEBT SERVICE
ROUGHLY OVER TWENTY FIVE YEARS-
AND WE WERE TRYING TO REDUCE
SPENDING ON ON PRISON
INFRASTRUCTURE AND- HOMES. SO
WHY IS THIS- A HIGH PRIORITY
INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTS AT THIS
PARTICULAR. TIME ESPECIALLY OF
THE BUDGET- I THINK IN LOOKING
AT LOCATIONS WHERE YOU COULD
MAKE TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE IN
THE DEPARTMENT- SAN QUINN WAS
SELECTED LARGELY DUE TO THE FACT
THAT THEM THERE'S A LARGE PIECE
OF AVAILABLE- PROGRAMMING
OPTIONS AND VOLUNTEERS AT SAN
QUENTIN. THAT PROVIDE THEM
OPPORTUNITIES THAT EXTEND BEYOND
OTHER INSTITUTIONS SO- WE CHOSE
THAT LOCATION WAS CHOSEN ALSO I
THINK THERE'S A CERTAINLY A
LARGE- IMPACT OF JUST CHOOSING.
A LOCATION WHERE YOU PREVIOUSLY
HOUSE SOME OF OUR MOST SECURE
INMATES AND CREATING FROM THAT
THE TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE. TO
ALLOW FOR A MUCH DIFFERENT TYPE
OF PROGRAMMING THAN WAS
PREVIOUSLY AVAILABLE AT THAT
LOCATION AND THE COST IS
SIGNIFICANT AND NOT TRYING TO-
THAT DIMINISH THE IMPORTANCE-
BUT WE ARE LOOKING FOR
TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE. AND IN
THAT LOCATION- WHICH DOES THEM
YOU KNOW OBVIOUSLY BRING A COST
AND WE'RE LOOKING AT DOING
DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONSTRUCTION
VERY LIKELY THEN THE DEPARTMENT
HAS DONE IN THE PAST- AND DUE TO
WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO AND THE
CHANGES WERE TRYING TO BRING
ABOUT. I GUESS MAYBE THAT'S THE
QUESTION BECAUSE REALLY THE
PROJECT IS NOT BE BEEN DESCRIBED
OTHER THAN THIS IS GOING TO BE A
REAL DEMOLISH THIS BUILDING AND
WE'RE GOING TO BUILD A NEW
BUILDING AND IT'S
TRANSFORMATIONAL AND WITHOUT
ANY. DESCRIPTION OF WHAT THAT
MEANS THEN YOU GET THE PRICE TAG
OF THREE YOU KNOW THREE SIXTY
MILLION DOLLARS PLUS- THE DEBT
SERVICE THAT REALLY IS THE
PROBLEM I THINK WE'RE FACING IS
HOW DO WE APPROVE SOMETHING. HOW
DO WE SUPPORT SOMETHING THAT I
THINK IN CONCEPT I CERTAINLY
SUPPORT A HUNDRED PERCENT- BUT
IT'S HARD WHEN YOU HAVE NO. WHAT
THIS GOING TO BE WHAT THIS IS
GOING TO LOOK LIKE SO IF YOU
COULD ANSWER THAT ONE AND THEN
SECOND IS. I HOPE THAT THERE
WILL BE A COUPLE OF NEW
CALIFORNIA MODEL I HOPE THAT WE
WILL CHANGE THE WAY. THE
INCARCERATION SYSTEM WORKS WITH
REGARDS TO. REALLY
REHABILITATING BOB PEOPLE TO BE
ABLE TO COME OUT AND WHEN
THEY'RE RELEASED AND- YOU DON'T
REALLY EXPECT A NEW LIFE AND
HAVE THE HOPE. OF A NEW LIFE
ACTUALLY A FIRST CHANCE NOT EVEN
A SECOND CHANCE. BUT I'M- I'M
NOT GETTING OTHER THAN THE BRICK
AND MORTAR. HERE AND THE COST OF
THE BRICK AND MORTAR ANY SENSE
OF WHAT THAT MEANS NOTHING AND
SO. THESE THESE LITTLE TIDBITS-
A LITTLE GLIMPSE- YOU KNOW BUT-
IT. REALLY WHAT DOES THAT MEAN
AND CHANGING AND B. AND CREATING
THE CALIFORNIA MODEL MEANS.
CHANGING THE CULTURE CHANGING.
THE WAY THINGS ARE DONE BY
EVERYONE INSIDE THAT THAT PRISON
FROM THOSE WHO ARE INCARCERATED
ALL THE WAY TO THE STAFFING-
EVERYBODY AT EVERY LEVEL SO. I
WANNA. ONE OF BELIEVE BUT YOU'RE
NOT GIVING ME MUCH TO WORK WITH
AS FAR AS- WHAT WE'RE GONNA GET
OURSELVES INTO WHAT IS THIS
GOING TO BE REALLY. I THINK
THOSE ARE VERY QUIET FOR
QUESTIONS AND M. CERTAINLY WE
HAVE- SOME REPRESENTATION THAT
CAN SPEAK TO THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL ITSELF AND I THINK IN SOME
WAYS THE WHAT WE'RE APPROACHING
HERE I HAVE THE EASIEST PART OF
IT BECAUSE I JUST HAVE TO BUILD
SOMETHING- THE CULTURE CHANGE IN
ISSUES THAT THEM YOU NEED TO
AFFECT. THEM TO BRING ABOUT A
MODEL SUCH AS CALIFORNIA MODEL
ARE SIGNIFICANT AND WILL REQUIRE
SIGNIFICANT EFFORT AND ON THE
PART OF THE DEPARTMENT OVERALL
TO PROVIDE THAT LEVEL OF CHANGE
THAT YOU'RE SPEAKING OF- IF WE
IF YOU. ONLY APPROACH IT FROM
THE STANDPOINT OF THAT THE
CONSTRUCTION IS THE BIGGEST
COMPONENT AND THEN- YOU KNOW
LIKELY IT WON'T SUCCEED OVERALL
IT REALLY DOES HAVE TO BE A
CULTURAL CHANGE THAT YOU SPEAK
TO. ME AND WE CAN YOU KNOW THE
DEPARTMENT IS BEGINNING TO
APPROACH THAT- IN THE ENTIRE
DEPARTMENT- YOU KNOW NOT JUST
FOCUSED ON SAN QUENTIN SAN
QUENTIN IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR US
TO MAKE SOME. SOME BOLD CHANGES-
AS I SPOKE TO IN A LOCATION THAT
PREVIOUSLY HOUSED SOME OF OUR
MOST SECURE INMATES AND THAT HAD
NO OPPORTUNITY TO EXIT THE
SYSTEM- AND RETURNED TO- THIRD
THEIR LIVES BUT- YOU KNOW
CLEARLY- YOU KNOW THE GOALS.
EXTEND BEYOND THE WALLS OF THE
PRISON- TO THE OPPORTUNITY THAT
THAT THE POPULATION HAS TO
RETURN TO THE COMMUNITY AND
PROVIDE MORE SERVICE TO THE
COMMUNITY AND BETTER PUBLIC
SAFETY. THROUGH PROVIDING BETTER
INTEGRATED PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS
SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT THIS
POPULATION FACES- AND SO YOU
KNOW SPECIFIC TO THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL- YOU KNOW THERE'S A LOT OF
EFFORTS UNDER WAY ON THE PART OF
THE DEPARTMENT- TO REALLY BEGIN.
TO DETERMINE DOT- THE AND WHERE
WE'RE GOING TO GO WITH THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL- OBVIOUSLY THE
ADVISORY COUNCIL AND THAT THE
GOVERNOR ADAM. SELECTED FOR SAN
QUENTIN- WILL. OUR F. AT SAN
QUINN CPAS- ED TO DRESS THAT THE
SAN QUENTON PORTION OF THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL- I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT THOUGH TO UNDERSTAND
THAT THAT'S GOING TO EXTEND FAR
BEYOND. THE WALLS OF SAN QUENTIN
THURMOND WE HAVE SOMEONE HERE
WHO CAN SPEAK TO CALIFORNIA
MODEL AND THEN SOME OF THE
DEPARTMENT'S EFFORTS. THANK YOU
WELCOME. GOOD AFTERNOON JEANINE
DOMINGO DEPUTY DIRECTOR OF
SPECIAL PROJECTS. AND THIS IS
JUST A HIGH LEVEL OVERVIEW OF
THE CALIFORNIA MODEL. SAID THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL IS A SYSTEM
WIDE CHANGE WITHIN THE
DEPARTMENT THAT LEVERAGES
INTERNATIONAL BEST PRACTICES AND
PROCESSES TO ADDRESS
LONGSTANDING CHALLENGES RELATED
TO INCARCERATION AND PRISON
WORKING CONDITIONS. BERMAN IS
COMMITTED TO IMPROVING WORKING
AND LIVING CONDITIONS FOR ALL
WHO LIVE IN WORK IN AND VISIT
STATE PRESENTS AS WELL AS
IMPROVING THE WORKING
ENVIRONMENT AND ONENESS OF ALL
EMPLOYEES REGARDLESS OF THEIR
LOCATION. THE CALIFORNIA MODEL
BUILDS UPON WORK ALREADY
UNDERWAY THAT ENCOMPASSES THE
DEPARTMENT'S MISSION TO FIX THE
TUB FACILITATE THE SUCCESSFUL
REINTEGRATION OF INCARCERATED
INDIVIDUALS. BACK TO THEIR
COMMUNITIES EQUIPPED WITH THE
TOOLS TO BE HEALTHY AND
EMPLOYABLE MEMBERS OF SOCIETY.
THE CALIFORNIA MODEL USES FOR
PRINCIPLES THAT HAVE PROVEN
SUCCESSFUL IN OTHER COUNTRIES
AND STATES. THESE INCLUDE
DYNAMIC SECURITY AND APPROACH
THAT PROMOTES POSITIVE
RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN STAFF AND
INCARCERATED PEOPLE THROUGH
PURPOSEFUL ACTIVITIES AND
PROFESSIONAL POSITIVE AND
RESPECTFUL COMMUNICATION.
NORMALIZATION WHICH AIMS TO
BRING LIFE IN PRISON AS CLOSE AS
POSSIBLE TO LIFE OUTSIDE OF
PRISON THE MORE LIFE IN PRISON
RESEMBLES LIFE IN THE COMMUNITY
THE EASIER IT WILL BE FOR PEOPLE
TO TRANSITION AND ADJUST TO LIFE
IN THE COMMUNITY UPON RELEASE.
YOUR SUPPORT SIXTY TRAIN
INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS TO USE
THEIR LIVED EXPERIENCES TO
PROVIDE RECOVERY. RECOVERY AND
REHABILITATION SUPPORT TO THEIR
PEERS AND BECOMING A TRAUMA
INFORMED ORGANIZATION TO CHANGE
THE PRACTICES POLICIES AND
CULTURE OF THE ENTIRE DEPARTMENT
EDUCATING STAFF AT ALL LEVELS TO
RECOGNIZE THE IMPACTS OF TRAUMA
AND ENSURE. THE PHYSICAL AND
EMOTIONAL SAFETY OF ALL STAFF
AND INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS.
THE DEPARTMENT HAS INCORPORATED
THESE PRINCIPLES AT VARIOUS TEST
SITES TO IDENTIFY SCALABLE
POSSIBILITIES FOR ALL SPECIES
ARE PRESENT. IN THE DEPARTMENT
WAS GALA THESE EVIDENCE BASED
PRINCIPLES TO GUIDE EXPECTATIONS
FOR HOW OUR STAFF AND THE
POPULATION INTERACT TO CREATE AN
OVERALL HEALTHIER WORK
ENVIRONMENT AND SUPPORT
REHABILITATION. THESE PRINCIPLES
HAVE BEEN SHOWN INTERNATIONALLY
AND IN OTHER STATES TO IMPROVE
THE HEALTH AND WELL BEING A
CORRECTIONAL STAFF INCARCERATED
PEOPLE AND TO REDUCE RECIDIVISM
AND INCREASED PRESS RELEASE AND
PLYMOUTH. WELL COULD YOU TELL ME
WHERE THE I MEAN GREAT I REALLY
MEAN THAT THAT'S A REALLY GREAT-
TO HEAR. THE PRINCIPLES OF THE
OF THE CALIFORNIA MODEL- HE HE
SAID THAT THERE BEEN TESTED
SITES- FOR APPLYING THESE
PRINCIPLES. COULD YOU GIVE ME AN
EXAMPLE OF THAT. SURE SO WE
CURRENTLY HAVE FOR RIGHT NOW SO
AT VALLEY STATE PRISON CUSTODY
AND HEALTHCARE STAFF HAVE YOU
DEVELOPED A YOUTH OFFENDER
PROGRAM AND ARE NOT WORKING WITH
INCARCERATED PEOPLE AND
COMMUNITY LEADERS. DEVELOPING IN
PRISON RE ENTRY FACILITY IN
WHICH COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS
PROVIDE SERVICES. TO PEOPLE IN
THE LAST TWENTY TWO YEARS OF
THEIR SENTENCE TO READY THEM FOR
RELEASE. SALINAS VALLEY STATE
PRISON CUSTODY AND HEALTH CARE
STAFF FOR TESTING THE RESOURCE
TEAM WITH THE HIGHEST RISK
HIGHEST NEEDS INDIVIDUALS WHO
HAVE CO OCCURRING SERIOUS LIKE.
PSYCHIATRIC NEEDS TO INCREASE
TIME OUT OF CELL WHILE
DECREASING VIOLENCE AND ASSAULTS
ON STAFF WITH MEASURABLE IMPACT
ON OCCUPATIONAL WELLNESS AND
PROFESSIONAL PRIDE. AT CENTRAL
CALIFORNIA WOMEN'S FACILITY
CHRISTIE STAFFERS DURING
DEVELOPING CONTACT OFFICER TEST
PROJECT IN THE GENERAL
POPULATION UNIT THAT BUILDS ON
THEIR SUCCESSES INTEGRATING
DYNAMIC SECURITY PRACTICES INTO
THE INSTITUTIONS REHABILITATIVE
PROGRAMMING UNITS. THE CONTACT
OFFICER PROJECT AIMS TO IMPROVE
THE INTERACTIONS BETWEEN STAFF
AND INCARCERATED PEOPLE AND
FOSTER A- CULTURE OF MUTUAL
RESPECT REDUCING RULES VIOLATION
REPORTS AND GRIEVANCES ALONG THE
WAY. AND AT CENTRAL MEDICAL
FACILITY THE PRISON HOSPICE
PROGRAM LEANS INTO ENHANCED
DYNAMIC SECURITY AND
NORMALIZATION TRAINING TO ENABLE
HEALTH CARE STAFF BECAUSE THE
STAFF AND THEY MEET PEERS TO
WORK AS A TEAM AS THEY CARE FOR
THOSE AT THE END OF LIFE. THE
DEPARTMENT IS BRINGING THIS
MODEL TO OTHER PRISONS THAT
PROVIDE CARE TO PEOPLE WITH
SERIOUS. LIFE LIMITING ILLNESSES
. THANK YOU THANK YOU- THE
SPEAKING OF THE- EXAMPLES AT THE
TWO K. RIGHT NOW CERTAINLY
THERE'S A COST TO SERVICES HOW
IS THAT INCORPORATED INTO THIS
NEW CALIFORNIA MODEL AT. WITH
THIS PROJECT. A METAL IN THE
CLEAN CITIES ARE ARE YOU
SPEAKING SPECIFICALLY WITH TOO
SANGUINE OR JUST THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL IN GENERAL INSIGHTS TO
SEND CLINTON OKAY. THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL BE A COMPONENT
OF THE SAN QUENTIN- PROJECT SO
IT'S A IT'S A TOOL THE ADVISORY
COUNCIL WILL COME UP WITH
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE SCOPE OF
THE PROJECT- AND THE TYPE OF
SERVICES IT'LL BE OFFERED AND
THEN THE CALIFORNIA MODEL IS
KIND OF. INTEGRATED IN THAT IN
THAT IT DEALS WITH- AS MR WINDOW
SAID THAT THE INTERACTION
BETWEEN THE STAFF AND THE
INCARCERATED POPULATION SO IT'S
A- TWO TWO COMPONENTS I KIND OF
GO INTO SAN QUENTIN MODEL IT'S
NOT THE CALIFORNIA ALL IS GOING
TO DRIVE EXACTLY HOUSING POINT
IS GOING TO BE THAT'S GOING TO
BE PRIMARILY BY THE ADVISORY
COUNCIL BUT- CALIFORNIA MODEL IS
ALSO SOMETHING THAT WERE LOOKING
TO ROLL OUT. STATEWIDE SO
THERE'S COMPONENTS AND PIECES OF
THAT DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE A COST
THAT IT'S JUST. THE TRAINING
ISSUE AND TEACHING PEOPLE HOW TO
INTERACT DIFFERENTLY WITH ONE
ANOTHER AND EXPOSING- A STAFF IN
THE INCARCERATED INDIVIDUALS- TO
THAT DIFFERENT KIND OF DYNAMIC
BETWEEN THE TWO GROUPS-
RECOGNIZING THAT THE YOU KNOW
THAT. THE STAFF THAT WORK THERE
IT'S AN INCREDIBLY STRESSFUL AND
HARD JOB AND SO IF THERE ARE
TOOLS THAT WE CAN PROVIDE THEM.
AND WAYS THAT WE CAN TEACH THE
GROUPS TO INTERACT DIFFERENTLY.
THAT RELEASES IT RELIEVES THE
STRESS ON BOTH PARTIES THAT'S-
SOMETHING THAT CAN BE A THREE
TRUCKS. AND SO THOSE ARE THE
TYPES OF THINGS THAT WE'RE
LOOKING TO SCALE THROUGHOUT THE
STATE- BUT THERE ARE SPECIFIC
COMPONENTS THAT WILL BE WOVEN
INTO THE SAN QUENTIN. PROJECT SO
IN TERMS. OF ONCE THE BUILDING
IS BUILT. WHAT ABOUT THE COST
OF. DOING THE SERVICES AND DOING
THE PROGRAM SO THAT I COULD
APPRECIATE THAT THERE WILL BE.
SOME STAFFING OR SOMETHING
THAT'S DONE THAT STATEWIDE THAT
BUT THAT'S STILL A COST TO THE
SAN QUENTIN. CENTER SO WHEN DOES
THAT GET PRESENTED TO US-
BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT JUST GOING TO
BUILD A BUILDING. ONE BUILDING
AND YOU WANT TO PROVIDE
SERVICES. WHAT'S THE COST
ATTACHED TO THAT. BECAUSE HASN'T
BEEN DEVELOP BECAUSE THAT'S PART
OF THE ADVISORY COUNCIL'S WORK-
AND SO THAT WOULD COME TO YOU TO
THE LEGISLATURE THROUGH A
SUBSEQUENT BUDGET CHANGE
PROPOSAL. SO THAT WE WOULD BE
ASKING FOR STAFFING AND
RESOURCES IT IN ORDER TO
IMPLEMENT THAT AND SO THAT'LL BE
PART I BELIEVE OF THE ADVISORY
COUNCILS REPORT- THAT WE'LL TALK
ABOUT THAT TYPE THE SCOPE THAT
WILL INFORM THE SCOPE OF THE
PROJECT. AND THE TYPES OF
SERVICES THAT WILL. THAT WILL BE
PROVIDED THREE THAT'S IMPORTANT.
YEAH THAT THAT SEEMS A LITTLE
BIT LIKE DISCONNECTED YOU KNOW.
INVESTING INTO A BUILDING BUT
NOT YET- OF PLANNING FOR THE
COST OF ACTUALLY. CARRYING OUT
WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT PART
WHICH IS. THE SERVICES THAT WILL
BE GIVEN THE PROGRAM THAT WILL
BE PROVIDED TO. TO THOSE MEN AND
WOMEN SEEM LIKE THAT'S A- THING
THAT NEEDS TO BE- THOUGHT MORE
IN ADVANCE NOT JUST. YOU KNOW.
WITH THE TIME LINE THAT YOU HAVE
ABOUT BUILDING IN TWO YEARS. I
MEAN THAT'S THAT'S NOT A WHOLE
LOT OF TIME AND I THINK IT
SHOULD BE PART OF THE-
DELIBERATIONS IN OUR BUDGET
TODAY. I MEAN. THIS THIS YEAR IS
NOT ONLY THE COST OF THE
BUILDING BUT THE COST OF WHAT
WHAT COMES AND WHAT'S GOING TO
BE NEEDED TO CARRY OUT. OF THE
CALIFORNIA MODEL YOU KNOW IS IT
TEN MILLION ISN'T A HUNDRED
MILLION THAT'S A THAT'S A BIG
CONSIDERATION. IF IT KIND OF ANY
THOUGHTS ON THAT BY ANYBODY. I
WOULD JUST POINT OUT THAT- EIGHT
I THINK WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO
HERE INTERESTING IT'S BOLD IT'S
AGGRESSIVE AND IT'S
UNCOMFORTABLE AND BUT SOMETIMES
IN ORDER TO MAKE MEANINGFUL
CHANGE WE HAVE TO. PUSH THE
ENVELOPE A LITTLE BIT I THINK
WHEN YOU LOOK BACK AT WHAT'S
HAPPENED- YOU KNOW IN THE
NINETIES AND EARLY TWO THOUSANDS
BUT IT TOOK US YEARS TO LEARN
THAT MASS INCARCERATION WASN'T
THE RIGHT WAY. AND SO ONLY
RECENTLY STARTING IN TWENTY
SIXTEEN SEVENTEEN IS WHEN YOU
KNOW THE STATE AS A WHOLE TO
REALIZE THAT REHABILITATION
BULLS- YOU KNOW. EDUCATIONAL
OPPORTUNITIES AND REHABILITATIVE
PROGRAMMING. IS WHAT. LEADS
LEADS TO REDUCE RECIDIVISM AND
SO WE'RE BUILDING ON THOSE
PRINCIPLES WE'VE MADE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS THE
STATE SPECIFIC INVESTMENT IN THE
DEPARTMENT TO EXPAND
REHABILITATIVE PROGRAMMING- I.
S. U. T. T. TRAUMA. MENTAL
HEALTH ALL THE THINGS THAT WE'VE
LEARNED IN RECENT YEARS AND SO
WE'RE APPLYING ALL THESE THINGS
THAT WE'VE LEARNED IN RECENT
YEARS- THEY WERE USING BEST
PRACTICES FOR USING THINGS THAT
HAVE HAPPENED- THEY'VE BEEN
PROVEN IN OTHER LOCATIONS. AND
SO THAT'S WHAT'S INFORMING THAT
THE SAN QUENTIN MODEL SO. I
UNDERSTAND. YOU'RE YOU'RE
CONCERNED ABOUT THAT WE'RE GONNA
BE BUILDING A BUILDING BUT WE
DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO GO
INTO IT BUT I THINK. WE CAN USE
WHAT. THE STATE HAS ALREADY
INVESTED IN AS KIND OF A MODEL
FOR HOW WE'RE GOING TO MOVE
FORWARD IS GOING TO BE. THAT THE
NEXT LEVEL I THINK OF HOW CITY
STARS COOPERATE HOW WE'RE GONNA
APPROACH INCARCERATIONS IN THE
STATE MOVING FORWARD BECAUSE
WE'VE LEARNED THAT THE WAY
DOESN'T WORK. WE HAVE TO BE WE
HAVE TO THINK DIFFERENTLY- WHEN
WE IT WE DON'T HAVE CONTROL OVER
THE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE SENT TO
STATE PRISON SO. A LOT OF THEM
COME TO US WITH MENTAL HEALTH
ISSUES WITH DRUG ISSUES WITH.
YOU KNOW HAVING TRAUMA IN THEIR
PAST LIFE. AND ARE IN IN THEIR
EARLY LIFE AND SO THE SYSTEM HAS
FAILED THEM. AND THEY ARE NOW
WITH US AND SO WE ARE DOING OUR
BEST. TO ADDRESS THE ISSUES MUCH
LATER IN LIFE WHICH IS A LOT
HARDER TO DEAL- I'M NOT. AFRAID
TO. BE BOLD- THE ISSUE IS OUR
RESPONSIBILITY. ON THE BUDGET
SIDE OF IT THAT'S WHAT THIS
HEARING IS ABOUT. AND THIS IS
WHAT THESE ARE THE KINDS OF
THINGS THAT. THE LEGISLATURE AS
LONG AS WE HAVE. SOME INPUT INTO
THE INTO THE BUDGET- NEED TO
ASK. YES CALLIONYMUS O'NEILL
THANK YOU FOR. I'M HEARING YOUR
CONCERN IS ONE ABOUT WHAT WOULD
BE IN TERMS OF THIS MODEL THAT
WE'RE DEVELOPING OR PERHAPS.
MULTIPLE MODELS THE CALIFORNIA
MODEL IN THE SAN QUENTIN MODEL
FOR I DON'T KNOW- ESSENTIALLY
WHAT IS THE OPERATIONAL COST ON
A SYSTEM WIDE LEVEL WHAT IS THAT
GOING TO LOOK LIKE I THINK IS
WHAT I'M HEARING. AND I THINK
THAT THAT REALLY IS A HUGE
REASON AT WITHOUT QUESTION
EXACTLY IS A HUGE REASON WHY WE
NEED A CLEAR SET OF OBJECTIVES
AND STRATEGY. BECAUSE THERE IS
FROM ALL OF MY READING AND
RESEARCH AND HAVING SEEN SOME OF
THESE S. EIGHT PILOT SITES IN
PERSON AND TALK TO PEOPLE FROM
OTHER STATES WHO ARE DOING THIS
WORK. AND RESEARCHERS AS MUCH AS
I HAVE HAD TIME TO DO THIS
SPRING- IT'S THERE THOUGH WE
WIDE RANGE OF ACTUAL PRACTICAL
CHANGES THAT COULD BE.
IMPLEMENTED IN THIS HOUSE THIS
IS A HUGE ARENA THAT WE'RE
TALKING ABOUT COULD BE. ANYTHING
FROM STAFF TRAINING AND CHANGES
IN THE WAY STAFF HONOR
INTERACTING WITH PEOPLE WHICH
YOU KNOW COULD TURN OUT TO BE IN
A RELATIVELY LOWER COST TO.
BUILDING BUILDINGS- YOU KNOW
CHANGING STAFFING RATIOS
SIGNIFICANTLY- SO WE WERE JUST
TALKING ABOUT A HUGE ARRAY OF
WHAT WE COULD ULTIMATELY BE
PURSUING. AND SO DEPENDING ON
WHAT OBJECTIVES THE STATE SETS
THAT WILL REALLY INFORM. LIKE WE
YOU KNOW WE CAN'T PURSUE
EVERYTHING PROBABLY RIGHT
STRATEGY PRIORITIZATION IS A
REALITY- AND SO DEPENDING ON
WHAT OBJECTIVES ARE ULTIMATELY
SET MORE GOALS ARE PRIORITIZE.
THE PRISONS THAT WE SELECT FOUR
OR THE STRATEGY FOR ACTUALLY
DEVELOPING THE MODEL COULD LOOK
DIFFERENT FOR EXAMPLE- THE
PROGRAM AT SALINAS VALLEY WHICH
IS AN AND I AM VERY VERSATIS
RESTRICTED HOUSING. FOR
ESSENTIALLY THE PRISON WITHIN
PRISON FOR PEOPLE WITH SEVERE
MENTAL HEALTH MENTAL. ILLNESS- A
DIFFICULT ENVIRONMENT TO WORK
AND THAT IS GOING TO DECIDE OF
INTERVENTIONS THERE IS GOING TO
LOOK PROBABLY PRETTY DIFFERENT
THAN IN GENERAL POPULATION
COPULATION ENVIRONMENT AND SO
DEPENDING ON A FOR GOALS ARE TO
REDUCE. USE OF RESTRICTED
HOUSING SELF ISOLATION STAFF
ASSAULTS THINGS LIKE THAT IT
COULD MAKE SENSE TO PILOT OR
DEVELOP THE MODEL AT AN
INSTITUTION THAT SUFFERS FROM.
THOSE PROBLEMS MORE ACUTELY THAN
SAY SAN QUENTIN- SO THIS IS ALL
TO SAY THAT. IN ORDER TO ANSWER
THAT QUESTION AND YOU KNOW HOW
FOR THE LEGISLATURE TO HAVE SOME
SENSE OF WHERE WE'RE HEADED SO
THAT YOU CAN REALLY WEIGH THIS.
AGAINST YOUR OTHER GENERAL FUND
. RARITIES YES WE DO NEED TO
KNOW WHERE HAVE A CLEAR SENSE OF
THE OBJECTIVE SO THAT THE
LEGISLATURE CAN. ASSESS WHETHER
IT'S AN AGREEMENT AND THEN AND
CAN WEIGH WHETHER THE ACTUAL
STRATEGY WE'RE PURSUING TO GET
THERE TO DEVELOP THAT MODEL
MAKES SENSE AND IS LIKELY TO
ACHIEVE A- MODEL THAT IS BOTH
EFFECTIVE IN MEETING THOSE
OBJECTIVES AND ACTUALLY SCALABLE
BECAUSE- UNDER LAW IT REALLY
DOESN'T. WE LOOKED FOR A
STRATEGY UNDERLYING THIS
PROPOSAL AND WE COULDN'T FIND
ONE. THANK YOU- WELL I. OVERALL
I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT THE EFFORT
IS GOING INTO A CALIFORNIA MODEL
I'M GLAD TO SEE. THE TRYING OUT
OF DIFFERENT SITES- I WENT TO
NORWAY I SAW WOOD YOU KNOW I.
GOT A SENSE AND CERTAINLY
DIDN'T- DON'T KNOW ALL THE DEEP
HISTORY THAT WENT INTO IT BUT I
HAVE A SENSE OF WHAT A- PRISON
SYSTEM COULD BE. THAT IS VERY
DIFFERENT FROM THE PRISON SYSTEM
THAT WE HAVE IN THIS IN THIS
STATE SO THAT. JUST THAT
EXPERIENCE OF VISITING THOSE
PRISONS WAS YOU KNOW IT'S JUST
REALLY STUCK WITH ME BECAUSE
IT'S SO DIFFERENT AND- SO MUCH
HEALTHIER. FOR EVERYONE FOR
EVERYONE SO- AND I'VE GONE TO
YOU KNOW SOME OF OUR OUR OWN
STATE PRISONS- I'M GLAD TO WORK
WITH ORGANIZATIONS. THAT PROVIDE
BOTH THAT YOU KNOW WHAT OUR
POPULATION THAT ARE STILL
INCARCERATED THOSE WHO WERE
ABOUT TO LEAVE AND BE RELEASED
THOSE WHO OR- HAVE BEEN
RELEASED- SO I'M GLAD TO SEE.
THAT THE ENERGY IS GOING INTO
THAT- ASIDE ONE OF I DON'T WANT
TO. MAKES RIGHT THAT
APPRECIATION FOR THE OTHER
QUESTIONS THAT WE HAVE TO ASK IT
ARE VERY IMPORTANT AND WHAT'S
EXPECTED FROM US- BYE BYE MY
COLLEAGUES IN IN THE SENATE SO-
IN CASE ANY FOR- I JUST IN TERMS
OF THE FINAL AS IF YOU COULD
CLARIFY. IN TERMS OF THE FINAL
SAY ON THE PROJECT- WHO WILL
HAVE THE FINAL SAY AS FAR AS-
YOU. OUR PLANNING WHO'LL HAVE
THE FINAL SAY ON THE PROJECT THE
PROGRAMS HOW DO YOU KNOW THE
DESIGN OF THE- PROJECT THE COST
OF THE SERVICES- THE ADVISORY
COUNCIL WILL DETERMINE THE THIS
SCOPE OF THE PROJECT- THE
THROUGH THEIR DELIBERATIONS. IN
THEIR MEETINGS THAT THEY HAVE.
WE ANTICIPATE THEM PARTICIPATING
WITH THE ADVISORY COUNCIL AS
MUCH AS POSSIBLE- AND MONITORING
FOR OR WHAT THEY ARE YOU CHOOSE
TO IN HAVE INCLUDED IN THE
BUILDING- AND IT BEGINNING FROM
THE VERY BEGINNING- ALL THE WAY
THROUGH- WILL THROUGH THEIR
PROCESS STATE IN TO SPEAK TO
THEM PROVIDING A PUBLIC REPORT-
AT THE END OF THE YEAR. IN
DECEMBER- THIS YEAR- FROM THE
ADVISORY COUNCIL THAT WILL
PROVIDE ALL THAT KIND OF
OVERVIEW OF HOW WE EFFECT THIS
CHANGE AT SAN QUENTIN- AND SO-
THE DESIGN PROCESS FOR THIS WILL
GO ALL THE WAY THROUGH EARLY
NEXT YEAR AND SO WILL BE MAKING
CHANGES BASED ON ON WHAT THE
ADVISORY COUNCIL WANTS TO
INCLUDE. HIM ALL THE WAY THROUGH
THEIR ENTIRE DELIBERATIONS. AND
INSTRUCTIONS WE RECEIVE FROM THE
ADMINISTRATION IS THAT WHAT THE
ADVISORY COUNCIL RECOMMENDS IT
WILL DETERMINE THE SCOPE. OF THE
BUILDINGS AND THE THAT THE OTHER
IMPROVEMENTS THAT WILL DO IT SAN
QUENTIN. SINCE IT BUYS WEEK WAS
FORMED WITHOUT LEGISLATIVE INPUT
WHERE DO YOU SEE THE LEGISLATURE
WILL PERFORM OUR- OVERSIGHT
DUTIES. WHERE AND HOW. BUT LET
ME BE A QUESTION FOR YOU. YOU'RE
JUST BUILDING THE BUILDING RIGHT
. IT SHOULDN'T BE IN IT SHOULD
NOT BE AIMED AT YOU. SKEWS ME-
WE RECOGNIZE THAT THE ADVISORY
COUNCIL BEACON OF RENDERING
THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS YOU KNOW
THROUGH THIS DELIBERATE IT'S-
ROSS SAYS THAT- BALLS THE
NUMEROUS STAKEHOLDERS THAT ARE
PART OF THAT COUNCIL- WE
RECOGNIZE THIS WILL BE A PUBLIC
DOCUMENT WHEN IT'S COMPLETED AND
AT THAT TIME WE- WILL IT WILL BE
SHARED WITH THE LEGISLATURE AND
WILL CONTINUE. TO YOU KNOW OUR
HOPE IS TO WORK WITH THE
LEGISLATURE TO. YOU CONTINUE
CONVERSATIONS AS WE DEVELOP THIS
IS THE PROJECT SCOPE IS MORE
REFINED. OKAY I JUST WANTED TO
CLARIFY TURNED OR STANDING THAT
THE PUBLIC DOCUMENT HAS NOT
PLANNED TO BE RELEASED UNTIL
LATE- THE END OF THE YEAR LIKELY
AFTER THE BEEP DOES THE SCOPE OF
THAT PROJECT IN THE
RECOMMENDATIONS ARE USED TO
INFORM THE- CONSTRUCTION DESIGN
BECAUSE OF THE AGGRESSIVE
TIMELINE- IT'S ALSO UNDERSTAND
OUR UNDERSTANDING THAT. THIS
COUNCIL WOULD NOT BE SUBJECT TO
OPEN MEETING REQUIREMENTS SO
IT'S NOT CLEAR HOW ATOMS
STAKEHOLDER INVOLVEMENT WOULD IT
WOULD OCCUR OR HOW THE
LEGISLATURE OR THE PUBLIC WOULD
BE ABLE TO. UNDERSTAND WHAT'S
GOING INTO THESE DECISIONS. OKAY
WELL- I KNOW THAT HEARING FROM
MY COLLEAGUES AND MYSELF THAT
THAT ROUTE WE REALLY NEED TO
ADDRESS THE ISSUE OF LEGISLATIVE
INPUT AND OVERSIGHT INTO THIS
PROJECT I THINK YOU SHOULD SEE
IT AS A VERY POSITIVE THING.
THAT YOU KNOW WE WANT TO HAVE
OUR EXPERIENCES- BE A PART OF
THIS SO THAT WE CAN MAKE IT
SUCCESSFUL I'M NOT SURE I DON'T
THINK THERE'S ANYBODY WHO WANTS
TO SEE SOMETHING LIKE THIS
FAILED WE WANTED TO SEE. IT
SUCCEED AND- WE HAVE
RESPONSIBILITIES SO DO YOU WE
NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE
LEGISLATURE HAS THE KIND OF
INPUT- THAT WE SHOULD HAVE FOR
SOMETHING MOVING FORWARD LIKE
THIS SO I WOULD ASK YOU. TO WORK
ON THAT- AND THEN JUST THE FINAL
ONE SPECIFIC ON THE DEADLINE-
WHAT IS IT ABOUT THE TWENTY
TWENTY FIVE DATE. ON THAT MAKES
WHAT IS IT THAT MAKES THAT SO
URGENT AND- NEEDED. M. I AM
OBVIOUSLY NOT THEM COMPLETELY
AWARE OF WHAT THAT DECISION
MAKING PROCESS WAS THAT WAS THE
GOVERNOR'S DIRECTIVE TO US BUT-
I THINK AS MISTER CLEAN POINTED
OUT. AND TRANSFORMATIONAL
CHANGES SOMETIMES UNCOMFORTABLE
AND REQUIRES THAT YOU PUSH FOR-
AUDACIOUS GOALS THAT ARE SEEM TO
BE BEYOND WHAT PEOPLE ARE
COMFORTABLE WITH AND I THINK I
AM CLEARLY THAT'S WHAT THE
GOVERNOR HAS HAS. PUT IN THE
HANDS OF THE DEPARTMENT IS
SEEKING FOR TRANSIT
TRANSFORMATIONAL CHANGE. IN A
WAY THAT THAT DOESN'T ALLOW THEM
YOU KNOW SOME OF THE THEY KIND
OF BUREAUCRATIC DELAYS THAT
NORMALLY ACCOMPANY- THIS THIS
TYPE OF ISSUE- AND SO I THINK
IT'S JUST REALLY HIM SETTING A
VERY AUDACIOUS SCHOOL FOR THE
DEPARTMENT- TO MAKE TRANSFERS
TORRANCE FOR RACIAL CHANGE- IN A
VERY- FAST MANNER. OKAY WELL
I'LL JUST SEND MY COMMENTS BY
SAYING- FAST DOES NOT
NECESSARILY MEAN THAT YOU GET
THE QUALITY OF WHAT YOU'RE
LOOKING FOR AND SO I THINK
THAT'S WORLD ALL ASKING IS THE
QUALITY. OF THE INPUT IN THE
FRONT OF IT NOT BECAUSE WE'RE
AFRAID NOT BECAUSE WE DON'T WANT
TO BE BOLD- YOU KNOW WE FACES
OUT THERE AS FAR AS OUR
COMMUNITIES AND OUR AND THE
PEOPLE THAT WE REPRESENT SO-
THESE ARE JUST REALLY- BIG
IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS THAT
HAVE TO BE TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT.
OKAY THANK YOU I THINK THAT'S IT
OKAY THANK YOU EVERYONE SO MUCH
. APPRECIATE ALL YOUR HARD WORK
. PLEASE WE HAVE ONE MORE FOR
MORE- OKAY WE'RE MOVING ON TO
ISSUE THREE- A REVISION- REVIEW
PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUES. GOOD
AFTERNOON MADAM CHAIR- STUDENTS
WITH DEPARTMENT FINANCE I WILL
LOOK THROUGH PRESENTATIONS ON
THE CALLOW YES PROPOSALS THAT
ARE ON THE AGENDA. AND THEN I'LL
TURN TO MY COLLEAGUE KEVIN CLARK
TO GO OVER THE REMAINING ISSUES
THAT ARE ON THE AGENDA TODAY.
THANKS AND WELCOME THANK YOU- SO
STARTING WITH THE FLOOD IMPACTS
OF THE MIRROR VISION INCLUDES A
TWO HUNDRED NINETY MILLION
DOLLARS STATEWIDE FLOOD SUPPORT
PACKAGE IN THE TWO ISSUES YOU
HAVE ON THE AGENDA TODAY. ARE
COMPONENTS OF THAT OVERALL
PACKAGE- THAT WHOLE PACKAGE WAS
HEARD IN SENATE SUB TO YESTERDAY
MORNING JUST AS A- PIECE OF
INFORMATION. REGARDING THE TWO
ISSUES ON THE AGENDA TODAY THE
ADMINISTRATION REQUEST THAT
CONTROL SECTION ELEVEN POINT
EIGHT SIX BE ADDED TO THE BUDGET
BILL TO ADMINISTER A ONE HUNDRED
AND TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLAR.
ONE TIME GENERAL FUND FLOOD
CONTINGENCY- THAT WOULD SUPPORT
COSTS ASSOCIATE WITH
PREPAREDNESS RESPONSE RECOVERY
AND OTHER SOCIAL ACTIVITIES.
RELATED YOU THOUSAND TWENTY
THREE STORMS THE RESULTING
SNOWMELT AND OTHER FLOODING
RISKS INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED
TO SUPPORTING COMMUNITIES OF ALL
POPULATIONS SUCH AS FARMWORKERS
AND THE IMPACTS OF POTENTIAL
FUTURE FLOOD EVENTS. I WOULD
NOTE THAT THE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
INCLUDED A HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE
MILLION DOLLAR DROUGHT- SET
ASIDE THIS ESSENTIALLY SHIFTS
FROM THAT DROUGHT SET ASIDE TO A
FLOOD SET ASIDE. TAKING INTO
ACCOUNT FOR CURRENT EVENTS. I
HAVE OVER THE LAST AND THE
REASON WHY WE HAVE THIS FOCUS ON
FLOOD IS THAT OVER THE LAST
SEVERAL YEARS- THE BUDGET IS
INCLUDED ONE POINT FIVE BILLION
DOLLARS FOR IMMEDIATE DROUGHT
SUPPORT. THAT INCLUDES DIRECT
RELIEF FOR COMMUNITIES- FOR
EXAMPLE JUST THIS LAST WEEK
SEVENTY ONE MILLION DOLLARS OF
CURRENT YEAR DROUGHT TO SUPPORT
AN ADDITIONAL OVERLY FOR
FARMWORKERS. FOR HOLD WATER AND-
TO REMEDIATE DRIED WELLS HAS
GONE OUT AND SO THAT SOMEBODY IN
AN AREA WHERE WE'VE DEVOTED A
LOT OF RESOURCES INVESTMENTS
INTO DROUGHT. AND THEN ALL OF
THE RECENT BUDGET BUDGETS HAVE
INCLUDED SEVEN HUNDRED THIRTY
EIGHT MILLION DOLLARS FOR FLOOD
RELATED- PROPOSALS IN THE
GOVERNOR BUDGET HAS TWO HUNDRED
ONE MILLION ADDITIONAL FOR
FLOOD. THOSE ARE MOSTLY FOCUSED
ON LEVY TYPE PROJECTS AND SO
THE- IDEA BEHIND THIS PARTICULAR
CONTROL SECTIONS FOR TRYIN
ADDRESS A GAP IN. THE EXISTING
FUNDING THAT ALREADY EXIST FOR
DROUGHT AND FOR FLIGHTS THE
QUESTIONS COME UP ABOUT WILL.
YOU KNOW WHY. PERSPECTIVE TAKING
INTO ACCOUNT ALL THE EXISTING
INVESTMENTS THEY'RE SORT OF THIS
GAP THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED
INTO THE PROPOSAL IS REALLY TO
HIT THAT SWEET SPOT- THE SECOND
PIECE THAT'S IN FROM THE FOOT
PACKAGE HERE IS A TWENTY FIVE
MILLION DOLLAR ONE TIME GENERAL
FUND SET ASIDE. IN THE CURRENT
FISCAL YEAR SO BETWEEN NOW AND
BASICALLY THE END OF JUNE- THAT
FOR ANTICIPATED POTENTIAL
ADDITIONAL DISASTER RELIEF IN
RESPONSE COSTS THAT WOULD BE
ADMINISTERED THROUGH THE
DISASTER. RESPONSE EMERGENCY
RELIEF FUND HER ACCOUNT SORRY
THE CARD RIO. SO THAT'S THE TWO
THINGS ON THE FLOOD- SWITCHING
TO NONPROFIT SECURITY GRANTS.
ARE THE MAY REVISION INCLUDES
TEN MILLION DOLLARS ONE TIME IN
FISCAL TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR
TO SUPPORT. THE NONPROFIT
SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM WHICH
PROVIDES FUNDING. SUPPORT TARGET
HARDENING AND OTHER PHYSICAL
SECURITY ENHANCEMENTS TO
NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE
HIGH RISK FOR VIOLENT ACTS OF
HATE CRIMES DO DIED IDEOLOGY
BELIEFS OR MISSION- IN EACH OF
THE LAST TWO FISCAL YEARS THE
BUDGET IS INCLUDED FIFTY MILLION
DOLLAR ONE TIME GENERAL FUND
INVESTMENTS IN THIS PROGRAM.
WHICH IS ONE OF CALIFORNIA ARE
FOR CALIFORNIA SORRY I COVER
THAT FARMERS WELL. HELLO YES
MOST IN DEMAND GRANT PROGRAMS-
SO FOR EXAMPLE IN THE TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY ONE FIFTY
MILLION DOLLAR PREPARATION THE
PROPOSALS THAT RECEIVED TOTAL
THEN ASK A FIFTY SEVEN POINT
SEVEN MILLION- THERE WERE THREE
HUNDRED AND FIFTY THREE
PROPOSALS. AND TWO HUNDRED
EIGHTY NINE WERE ABLE TO BE.
FUNDED AND THEN WITH THE TWO
THOUSAND TWENTY TO FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS- APPROPRIATION THERE WAS
A HUNDRED AND TWENTY NINE
MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF A
PROPOSAL SUBMITTED. WHAT WAS
SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY ONE
PROPOSALS AND TWO HUNDRED EIGHTY
FIVE OF THOSE PROPOSALS WERE
ABLE TO BE FUNDED SO IT'S
THERE'S JUST A LOT OF DEMAND FOR
THIS PROGRAM AND GIVEN ITS
CRITICAL NATURE. WE BELIEVE
INVESTMENT SHOULD CONTINUE THIS
YEAR. A TRANSITIONING INTO THE
GUN BUY BACK PROGRAM- AS PART OF
A COMPREHENSIVE PUBLIC SAFETY
PLAN FOCUSING TO ADDRESS THE
ROOT CAUSES OF CRIME. THE TWO
THOUSAND AND TWENTY TWO BUDGET
ACT INCLUDED TWENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS ONE TIME GENERAL FUND
FOR THE BORDER STATE AND
COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS TO
IMPLEMENT A COMPETITIVE GRANT
PROGRAM. TO SUPPORT LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT TO CONDUCT THEM BY
VANCE PROGRAMS IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES. THAT PROGRAM
REQUIRED- A MATCH FOR THE LOCAL
SWIMMING OUT 10% MATCH- OF THE
AMOUNT OF THE GRANT THAT WAS
BEING AWARDED. THE MAY. MAYOR
VISION PROPOSES TO MOVE THIS
FUNDING TO CALLOW YES THAT WOULD
BE ACCOMPLISHED THE REVERTING
THE TWENTY TWO TWENTY THREE.
APPROPRIATION FROM THE SEC AND
MAKING A NEW APPROPRIATION
WITHIN- YES IS BUDGET IN TWENTY
THREE TWENTY FOUR- I MEAN THE
IDEA. THERE IS THAT- YES WITH
THEN ADMINISTER THE PROGRAM- IT
WOULD WORK WITH LOCAL ON PARTNER
WITH LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT
AGENCIES- IT WOULD GO THROUGH
ESTABLISH SOME GUIDELINES AND
TIMELINES TO DO THIS- AND- THE
FOCUS AND PURPOSE WOULD STILL BE
TO PROVIDE. SAFE DISPOSAL
OPPORTUNITIES FOR REMOVAL OF
GUNS FROM THE STREET AS WELL AS
PUBLIC EDUCATION. TO RAISE
AWARENESS GUN VIOLENCE- THIS THE
PROGRAM WOULD ALSO INCLUDE THE
COLLECTION OF DATA SO SHE WITH
THE VOLUME AND TYPES OF GUNS-
THAT WOULD BE REMOVED. THE
PRIMARY REASON FOR SWITCHING
BETWEEN BSE TO CALLAWAY YES IS A
DEMONSTRATION WANTS TO GET THE
FUNDING INTO THE FIELD SOONER-
UNDER THE B. SEC PROGRAM IT WAS
SPECIFIED THAT IT HAD TO BE
COMPETITIVE GRANT PROGRAM WHICH
REQUIRED BUILDING A COMMITTEE
DESIGNING. THE EARTH P. PUTTING
YOUR FEET OUT AND THEN YOU YOU
RECEIVE ALL OF THOSE AND SCORE
THEM AND MAKE AWARDS- UNDER
CALLOW YES WE THINK THEY HAVE-
SOME EXPERIENCE IN LEADING AND
DIRECTING STATE RESOURCES
QUICKLY. AND THAT WE THINK THAT
AS THEY GO THROUGH DEVELOP
GUIDELINES- TO ADMINISTER THE
PROGRAM UNDER THAT DEPARTMENT
THAT THEY'LL BE ABLE TO FIND A-
FIT THAT'S ABLE TO GET US OUT
MORE EXPEDITIOUSLY IT. MAY NOT
RELY ON A COMPETITIVE GRANT
PROGRAM THERE COULD BE OTHER
POACHERS IT'LL BE CONSIDERED BUT
THE IDEA IS TO TRY AND GET THAT
FUNDING ADMINISTERED INTO THE
LOCAL LEVEL. MORE QUICKLY INTO
AND TO START YOU KNOW GETTING
THE GUNS OFF THE STREET
PERFECTLY- SHIFTING INTO THE
STATEWIDE DISASTER WAREHOUSING
OPERATIONS. THE MAYOR VISION
INCLUDES FORTY THREE POINT THREE
MILLION DOLLARS IN TWENTY THREE
TWENTY FOUR. IN AMOUNTS BETWEEN
TWENTY FOUR TWENTY FIVE AND
TWENTY SIX TWENTY SEVEN BUT
FORTY SIX POINT SIX MILLION
ONGOING. FIFTEEN POSITIONS. FOR
STATE WIDE MULTI AGENCY DISASTER
RESPONSE AND RECOVERY
WAREHOUSING OPERATIONS. THIS
REQUEST INCLUDES FUNDING TO FOR
THE LIFE CYCLE PROCUREMENT OF
PERSONAL PROTECTIVE EQUIPMENT.
EQUIPMENT THAT'S CONSISTENT WITH
THE SMARTER PLAN. BUT IT ALSO
INCLUDES- PROPER STORAGE
MANAGEMENT DISTRIBUTION OF A
VARIETY OF EMERGENCY RESPONSE
COMMODITIES. SUCH AS ****- MEALS
READY TO EAT OR M. R. E.'S
WATER- THERE'S EIGHT BY FORGET
THE TECHNICAL TERM BUT WE HAVE
THE ESSENTIALLY PORTABLE
MEDICAL. FACILITIES THEY CAN GO
OUT POP UP AS THEY'RE NEEDED.
THERE'S A LOT OF- OF COMMODITIES
THAT FROM A STATEWIDE EMERGE
RESPONSE THAT'S STORED AND
MANAGED HERE AT- AND DISTRIBUTED
AS NEEDED DURING A DISASTER- AND
ACTUALLY ONE OF THE THINGS THAT
IS REALLY HELPFUL HERE IS. SO
WHEN WE HAVE THESE BIG
DISASTERS. FEMA FREQUENTLY COMES
IN AND THE PROVIDE DIRECT
FEDERAL ASSISTANCE AND SOMETIMES
THEY BRING COMMODITIES LIKE IN
THIS PORTAL MEDICAL FACILITIES
AND COSTS AND THINGS LIKE THAT.
AND WHEN THEIR TWIN DISASTERS
DONE AND THEY'RE READY TO
DEMOBILIZE. THE USUALLY DON'T
TAKE IT WITH THEM AND SO THEY
GIVE IT TO THE STATE AND SO YOU
KNOW WE STORE THESE THINGS FOR
FUTURE USE AND SO IT'S REALLY
CRITICAL THAT WE HAVE THE SPACE
TO DO THAT FOR FREE. SO THIS
FUNDING WOULD PROVIDE FOR THE
CONTINUED LEASING AND OPERATION
OF THE WAREHOUSE SPACE FOR THIS
CRITICAL EMERGENCIES RESPONSE
READINESS- COMPONENT. AND THEN
LASTLY ON THE SOUTHERN REGION
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER. THE
MAYOR VISION INCLUDES A HUNDRED
AND SEVENTY FOUR POINT SEVEN
MILLION DOLLARS ONE TIME PUBLIC
BUILDING CONSTRUCTION FUND OR
PLEASE REVENUE BONDS. FOR THE
DESIGN BUILD PHASE OF THE
PROJECT. THIS PROJECT INCLUDES
CONSTRUCTION OF A NEW OFFICE
BUILDING WAREHOUSE
COMMUNICATIONS TOWER. HELIPAD
AND HELIPAD ON FIFTEEN ACRES OF
THE FORMER FAIRVIEW
DEVELOPMENTAL CENTER. I WANT TO
KNOW THAT THIS IS THE FINAL
PHASE OF THE CONTINUING CRITICAL
AND FOR INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT.
FOR WHICH THE PROGRAMMATIC NEEDS
HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED FOR YEARS
THIS PROJECT ACTUALLY STARTED-
MANY MANY YEARS AGO. TWENTY
YEARS AGO I THINK AND THERE IT
WAS GOING TO ORIGINALLY BE A
REPLACEMENT ON THE LOS ALL
METERS SITE THERE AND THEIR
RENTED SOME SIGNIFICANT ISSUES
WITH. TRYING TO FIND A STATE
PROJECT ON FEDERAL LAND BUT- SO
THAT THE PROGRAMMATIC NEED TO
REPLACE THIS IS BEEN AROUND FOR
A LONG TIME- MOST RECENTLY THIS
CURRENT PATH WAS RECOGNIZED WITH
LEGISLATORS APPROVAL OF THE
CURRENT PROJECT IN TWENTY ONE
BUDGET ACT. THE NEW FACILITY
WILL ALLOW FOR RESPONSE EFFORTS
BETWEEN FEDERAL STATE AND LOCAL
PARTNERS IN THE SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA REGION. WHICH IS A
HE'LL BE A FOCAL POINT TO
WHENEVER WE MOBILIZE FIRST
SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA DISASTER
RESPONSE. WE WANTED TO NOTE AS
WELL THAT. HELLO YES HAS BEEN
OPERATING INTO TEMPORARY
TRAILERS LOCATED AT THE LOS
ALAMITOS JOINT FORCES TRAINING
BASE. SINCE NINETEEN NINETY ONE
SO ABOUT THIRTY YEARS AGO- THE
CONFIRM THE CURRENT FACILITIES
LACK CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURE
SPACE FOR EFFECTIVE DAILY
OPERATIONS. IT'S NOT CONDUCIVE
TO THE RAMP UP THAT YOU NEED TO
DO WHEN THERE'S A MAJOR DISASTER
EVENT YOU'RE MOBILIZING. LOCAL
AND FEDERAL- PERSONNEL WITH THE
STATE- AND THAT THESE
TEMPERATURE ALERTS ARE DESIGNED
TO HAVE A USEFUL LIFE
APPROXIMATELY TEN OR FIFTEEN
YEARS SO WE'RE MORE THAN DOUBLE.
WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE IN
THERE YOU KNOW- MIGHT BE A GREAT
UNDERSTATEMENT TO SAY THEY ARE
VERY INADEQUATE- THE CURRENT
NEED AND NOT IN GREAT SHAPE- THE
PROJECT IS CURRENTLY IN THE
PERFORMANCE RICHARD FACE WHICH
IS ESTIMATED COMPLETED NOVEMBER
OF THIS YEAR. STOPPING THIS
PROJECT AT THIS POINT. DICKEL
JUNCTURE WOULD RESULT IN
SIGNIFICANT COST INCREASES
BECAUSE OF PROJECT ESCALATIONS
IN THE INFLATION PRESSURES THAT
WOULD COME WHEN YOU RESUME THE
PROJECT. AND ACTUALLY MAY RESULT
IN A COMPLETE NEED TO COMPLETELY
RESTART THE PROJECT IF VARIOUS
TRADES THAT ARE CURRENTLY UNDER
CONTRACT HAVE TO BE RELEASED
BECAUSE OF THE PROJECT DELAY. IN
THE LASTLY JUST WOULD NOTE THAT
THIS PROJECT IS A KEY PIECE OF
THE BACKBONE TO THE STATE'S
EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS-
NETWORKING AND CERTAINLY TO THE
RESIDENTS OF SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA- AND SO PROVIDES
UNNECESSARY REDUNDANCY AS WELL
WITH THE STATE'S PRIMARY STATE
OPERATIONS CENTER ON MAY THIRD.
HOUSE SUFFERED CRITICAL TO OUR
OVERALL- STATE OPERATION SYSTEM
IS LAID OUT STATUTES- AS WELL.
THEY'RE ALL STOP AND TURN OVER
TO KEVIN TO TAKE PROGRESS THE
PROPOSAL'S. GONNA FURNITURE

AND MURDERED INDIGENOUS PEOPLE.
TO THIS POPULATION HAS
DISPROPORTIONATELY HIGHER RATES
OF CRIME AND VICTIMIZATION
COMPARED TO OTHER POPULATIONS
AND DOES NOT HAVE THE VITAL
RESOURCES TO ADDRESS THEIR
NEEDS. SAYS TO HEAR FROM THE L.
A- MOMENTARILY THOSE RECOGNIZE
THE RECOMMENDATION IS DIFFERENT
TO- REJECT THIS PROPOSAL.
HOWEVER THE ADMINISTRATION
STRONGLY SUPPORTS RESOURCES
NECESSARY TO EIGHT CALIFORNIA'S
HISTORICALLY UNDERSERVED
INDIGENOUS POPULATIONS. AND
FINALLY MOVING TO THE COMMISSION
ON PEACE OFFICER STANDARDS AND
TRAINING THE MAY REVISION
INCLUDES SIX POINT ONE MILLION
GENERAL FUNDS IN THE BUDGET YEAR
AND FIVE POINT THREE MILLION ON
GOING TO FIND DEPARTMENT OF

PURSUANT TO CHAPTER FOUR OH NINE
SUCH AS THE TWENTY TWENTY TWO
THAT'S S. B. TWO. SUMMER JOIN
WITH FINANCE COLLEAGUES AND
FOLKS FROM REPRESENTATIVES FROM
THE DEPARTMENT TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE ABOUT
THE MAY REVISION PROPOSALS. YES-
HILLS OFFICE PLEASE. THANK YOU
MADAM CHAIRMAN MR IT'S SIMPLE
AND I'M WITH THE ALEJO SO FOR
THE L. A. I'LL BE PROVIDING
COMMENTS ON- E. S. B. S. C. C.
AND POSTED TO MY COLLEAGUE AND
ITALY WILL BE WRAPPING UP WITH
COMMENTS ON DOJ. AND SO I'M
GONNA START WITH OUR COMMENTS
ON- YES AND JUST SO IN CASE
FOLLOWING ALONG THAT'S ON PAGE
SIX OF THE AGENDA. I'LL GO IN
ORDER AND REFERENCE THE TITLES
JUST TO- SO YOU KNOW WHICH ITEMS
ON MY COMMON SUPPLY TOO. SO FOR
FIRST COMMENTS- REGARDING THE
FLOOD IMPACTS AND SO WE HAVE
SOME BROADER COMMENTS AND
RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE
GOVERNOR'S MAY REVISION FLOOD
PROPOSALS- MY CALL CONSERVANCY
MENTIONED I THINK THOSE WERE
COVERED ANOTHER SUBCOMMITTEE.
BUT SPECIFIC TO THIS PROPOSAL WE
ARE RECOMMENDING THE LEGISLATURE
CONSIDER APPROVING THE HUNDRED
TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLARS FROM
THE GENERAL FUND- WITH THAT IN
MIND WE ALSO RECOMMEND THAT THE
LEGISLATURE CONSIDER. MODIFYING
THE PROPOSAL IN A COUPLE OF WAYS
SO FIRST WE WOULD SUGGEST THE
LEGISLATURE CONSIDER MAKING THE
FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR BOTH
DROUGHT. AND FLOOD RELATED
CONTINGENCIES SUCH AS ENSURING
ACCESS TO DRINKING WATER AND
HELPING VULNERABLE HOUSEHOLDS
RECOVER FROM FLOOD DAMAGE. EVEN
THOUGH THE STATE DID HAVE A VERY
WET WINTER AND HYDROLOGIC
CONDITIONS HAVE CHANGED SOME OF
THE DROUGHT IMPACTS STILL
LINGERS FOR THE FOR EXAMPLE
THERE ARE HOUSE- YOU KNOW PEOPLE
IN COMMUNITIES. THAT RELY ON
WELLS THAT ARE STILL DRY AND SO
WE BELIEVE THAT- MAKING THE
FUNDING AVAILABLE FOR BOTH
DROUGHT AND FLOOD ALLOW THE
STATE TO DEVOTE THESE RESOURCES
TO THE MOST HIGH PRIORITY
PROJECTS OVER THE COMING YEAR-
THE SECOND WE WOULD RECOMMEND
THAT THE LEGISLATURE AND MORE
ACCOUNTABILITY. MEASURES TO THE
CONTROL SECTION LANGUAGE TO
INCREASE LEGISLATIVE OVERSIGHT
SO FOR EXAMPLE THE LANGUAGE
COULD INCLUDE- REQUIRE A
NOTIFICATION TO OCCUR TEN DAYS
PRIOR TO AN APPLICATION BEING
MADE. IN ADDITION THE LANGUAGE
COULD INCLUDE ADDITIONAL
PARAMETERS SUCH AS REQUIRING-
FUNDING BEING PRIORITIZE FOR
EXPENDITURES THAT ARE NOT
AVAILABLE. TO BE COVERED BY
LOCAL OR FEDERAL FUNDING. OUR
NEXT MOVES TO THE NON SICKER
GRANT PROGRAM. AND SO FOR THIS
PARTICULAR PROGRAM WHILE THIS
PROGRAM MAY HAVE MERIT THE STATE
HAS PROVIDED A TOTAL OF A
HUNDRED NINETEEN POINT FIVE
MILLION IN SUPPORT OF THE
PROGRAM SINCE TWENTY FIFTEEN TO
SIXTEEN. ACCORDINGLY IT'S
REASONABLE TO EXPECT THAT MANY
OF THE HIGH PRIORITY PROJECTS
HAVE RECEIVED FUNDINGS TODAY. IN
ADDITION- FEMA ADMINISTERS A
FEDERAL NONPROFIT SECURITY GRANT
PROGRAM THAT WOULD POTENTIALLY
REMAIN AVAILABLE SHOULD STATE
FUNDING NOT BE AVAILABLE- AND IN
THE NEXT YEAR. AND THEN FINALLY-
DUE TO THE ANTICIPATED REVENUE
WEAKNESS THAT OF MY COLLEAGUES
WHO STARTED OFF THIS
SUBCOMMITTEE HEARING I MENTIONED
AT THE START- OUR OFFICE DOES
THE PROJECT AGAIN REVENUE
WEAKNESS- IN THE OUT YEARS IN
THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL BUDGET
SOLUTIONS AND SO. WITH THAT IN
MIND WE WOULD RECOMMEND
REJECTING THIS PROPOSAL ALSO
GIVEN THE BUDGET CONDITION. I'LL
THEN MOVE ON TO THE GUN BUYBACK
PROGRAM WHICH IS NEXT ON THE
LIST- SO WE HAVE A COUPLE OF
COMMENTS. RELATED TO THIS
PARTICULAR PROPOSAL. SO FIRST WE
WOULD RECOMMEND APPROVING THE
REVERSION OF THE GUN BUY BACK
PROGRAM FROM DSCC- AS NONE OF
THE FUNDING HAS BEEN SPENT OR
COMMITTED TODAY IT COULD BE
BETTER USED TO ADDRESS THE
STATE'S BUDGET SITUATION
ESPECIALLY GIVEN. THE REVENUE
WEAKNESS THAT OUR OFFICE
PROJECTS. SECOND WE WOULD
RECOMMEND REJECTING THE
PROPOSED- YES AUGMENTATION TO
ADMINISTER THE GUN BUYBACK
PROGRAM. IT'S UNCLEAR WHETHER
THE NEW PROGRAM AT- YES WOULD
REDUCE FIREARM RELATED CRIME FOR
A COUPLE OF REASONS- FIRST IT
WOULD NO LONGER BE SUCH A
SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF
THE SEC PROGRAM. WHICH SHOULD
BASED- OR WHICH REQUIRED
RESEARCH BASED BEST PRACTICES.
SUCH AS REQUIRING THAT FIREARMS
BE IN WORKING ORDER IN ORDER TO
RECEIVE AN INCENTIVE. AND
PRIORITIZATION OF THE TYPES OF
FIREARMS USED IN CRIMES. IN
ADDITION THE LACK OF DETAILS FOR
THE NEW PROGRAM AND- YES MAKES
IT UNCLEAR WHETHER THE FUNDING
WOULD BE USED EFFECTIVELY. AND
THEN I WILL SUMMARIZE ALL OF THE
GROUP THE LAST TO THE STATE
DISASTER WAREHOUSING OPERATIONS
IN THE SOUTHERN REGION. OF
URGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER ALL
GIVE YOUR RECOMMENDATIONS BUT
OUR COMMENTS UNDER PENDING THOSE
TWO ARE ARE KIND OF THIS ARE.
ARE THE SAME. SO FOR THE-
STATEWIDE- DISASTER AND
WAREHOUSING OPERATIONS PROPOSAL
WE ARE RECOMMENDING APPROVING
THE FUNDING FOR ONE YEAR AS
OPPOSED TO ONGOING AS PROPOSED
BY THE GOVERNOR. AND THEN FOR
THE SOUTHERN REGION EMERGENCY
OPERATIONS CENTER WERE
RECOMMENDING REJECTING THE
PROPOSAL AT THIS TIME. B. TWENTY
TWO TWENTY THREE BUDGET PRIVATE
PACKAGE INCLUDED BUDGET BILL
LANGUAGE THAT REQUIRES- YES TO
SUBMIT A REPORT TO THE
LEGISLATURE BY FEBRUARY OF
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. AND THAT
WILL INCLUDE SUCH INFORMATION AS
A DESCRIPTION OF THE
DEPARTMENT'S EXISTING. EMERGENCY
RESPONSE CAPACITY AND RESOURCES
EMERGENCY RESPONSE GOALS
OBJECTIVES METRICS THE STATE'S
ABILITY TO MEET THESE GOALS
OBJECTIVES AND METRICS.
INCLUDING REGIONAL RESPONSE
CAPABILITIES TO HANDLE ALL
HAZARDS EMERGENCY SITUATION
SITUATIONS THANK HE RESPONSE
ACTIVITIES. IN OUR VIEW WE
ANTICIPATE THE LEGISLATURE WOULD
BE IN A BETTER POSITION TO
EVALUATE THESE PROPOSALS NEXT
YEAR- WITH THIS FORTHCOMING
REPORT ON EMERGENCY CAPACITY-
ONCE THAT IS SUBMITTED. AND THAT
I THINK CONCLUDES MY REMARKS ON
YES AND THEN I WILL GO ON TO THE
BOARD OF STATE AND COMMUNITY
CORRECTIONS. AND SO I WILL AIM
ON THE BOTTOM OF PAGE SEVEN
AGAIN FOR OF THE JENNIFER THOSE
FOLLOWING ALONG AND WE HAVE
COMMENTS ON TWO OF THE DSCC
PROPOSALS. SO FOR THE- THE
MISSING AND MURDERED INDIGENOUS
PERSONS GRANTS PROGRAM WE ARE
RECOMMENDING THAT REJECTING THIS
PROPOSAL AS THE NEED FOR
ADDITIONAL FUNDING AT THIS TIME
IS UNCLEAR. B. TWENTY TWO TWENTY
THREE BUDGET THAT PROVIDED THE
SEC WITH TWELVE MILLION DOLLARS
FROM THE GENERAL FUND OVER
TWELVE YEARS TO ESTABLISH THIS
PROGRAM. THE SEC IS CURRENTLY IN
THE PROCESS OF ACCEPTING
APPLICATIONS FOR THIS INITIAL
FUNDING THROUGH JUNE OF THIS
YEAR AND IS REQUIRED TO SUBMIT
AN INITIAL REPORT TO THE
LEGISLATURE IN DECEMBER OF THIS
YEAR. ON THE ON THE STATUS OF
THIS EXISTING PROGRAM. WE
BELIEVE THAT THE LEGISLATURE
WOULD BE IN A BETTER POSITION TO
ASSESS THE MERITS AND ANY
ADDITIONAL FUNDING NEEDED FOR
THIS PROGRAM. AFTER THIS FIRST
ROUND OF FUNDING HAS BEEN
AWARDED AND THIS INITIAL REPORT
HAS BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE
LEGISLATURE. AND THEN I WILL
MOVE ON TO THE POST RELEASE
COMMUNITY SUPERVISION ITEM. AND
THAT'S ON THE TOP OF PAGE EIGHT
ON THE AGENDA. SO FOR THE POST
RELEASE COMMUNITY SUPERVISION
PROPOSAL- AS YOU MAY RECALL THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET IN JANUARY
PROVIDED EIGHT POINT TWO
MILLION. ONE TIME FROM THE
GENERAL FUND FOR GRANTS TO
COUNTY PROBATION DEPARTMENTS TO
SUPPORT. THE TEMPORARY INCREASE
AND SUPERVISION POPULATION
CAUSED BY PROPOSITION FIFTY
SEVEN. THE MAY REVISION PROVIDES
AN ADDITIONAL ONE POINT ONE
MILLION FOR THESE GRANTS BASED
ON UPDATED A CASELOAD
PROJECTIONS. WE CONTINUE TO
RECOMMEND REJECTING THIS FUNDING
AS IT IS LIKELY NOT NEEDED AND
AGAIN GIVEN THE STATE'S BUDGET
CONDITION WOULD COME AT THE
EXPENSE OF PREVIOUSLY IDENTIFIED
A LEGISLATIVE PRIORITIES. AND
THEN FINALLY TO WRAP UP MY
COMMENTS I WILL COVER OF THE
COMMISSION ON PEACE OFFICER
STANDARDS AND TRAINING. SO THIS
IS THE LAST ITEM ON PAGE EIGHT
OF YOUR AGENDA. SO FOR THIS
PARTICULAR PROPOSAL- WE HAVE
THREE RECOMMENDATIONS FIRST WE
RECOMMEND APPROVING THE FUNDING
FOR THREE YEARS RATHER THAN ON
AN ONGOING BASIS AS OPPOSED BY
THE GOVERNOR. BECAUSE POST HAS
RECENTLY IMPLEMENTED THE PEACE
OFFICER TO CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
AND IS NOT HAVE ACTUAL DATA TO
DETERMINE WHAT ONGOING LEVEL OF
RESOURCES ARE NEEDED AT THIS
TIME. SECOND WE RECOMMEND
REQUIRING POST REPORT BY JANUARY
OF TWENTY TWENTY SIX ON ITS
ANNUAL DOJ COST. TO SUPPORT THE
PEACE OFFICER DECERTIFICATION.
OF CASES WHICH- WHICH WOULD
INFORM FUTURE- FUNDING DECISIONS
BY THE LEGISLATURE. AND THEN
FINALLY WE RECOMMEND ADOPTING
PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE THAT WOULD
REQUIRE ANY SPECIAL UNSPENT
FUNDS TO REVERT TO THE GENERAL
FUND. AS IS POSSIBLE THAT
POSTMAN POSTS OVER ESTIMATED THE
AMOUNT OF FUNDING NEEDED- FOR
DOJ COST GIVEN THAT POST IS
STILL BUILDING IT SPECIFIC
CAPACITY. AND THE NUMBER OF
CASES THAT WILL REACH THE OFFICE
OF ADMINISTRATIVE HEARINGS IS
UNCERTAIN. AND SO ESSENTIALLY
FOR THIS PROPOSAL YOU KNOW WE
RECOGNIZE AND AGREE WITH POSTS
THAT THERE WILL BE SOME ONGOING
LEVEL COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH IT.
HOWEVER RIGHT NOW SINCE WE DON'T
HAVE THE ACTUAL DATABASE ON
GOING FUNDING DECISIONS ON WE
THINK IT'S BEST TO MAKE THIS
LIMITED TERM CARE POST TIME TO
COLLECT ADDITIONAL DATA. AND
IMPOSE CAN SUBMIT A PROPOSAL FOR
ADDITIONAL ONGOING RESOURCES IN
THE FUTURE FOR LEGISLATIVE
CONSIDERATION. I'LL BE HAPPY
ANSWER ANY YOU HAVE AT THE
APPROPRIATE TIME BEFORE DOING
THAT I'M GONNA HANDED OVER TO MY
COLLEAGUE. I NEED TO LEAD TO
COVER DOJ THANK YOU THANK YOU.
ANY DELAY AT THE L. A. L. SO IF
YOU LIKE TO FOLLOW ALONG WITH
YOUR AGENDA WE'RE GOING TO BE
GOING BACK TO FUTURE STEPS
TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE AGENDA
AND WE HAVE SEVERAL COMMENTS-
FOR YOU RELATED TO SOME OF THE
DOJ PROPOSALS. SO THE FIRST ONE
IS RELATED TO THE PROPOSED- A
LOAN FROM THE LITIGATION DEPOSIT
FUND TO THE GENERAL FUND. WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
ADOPTED LANGUAGE REQUIRING THE
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE AND DOJ TO
REPORT THIRTY DAYS BEFORE THE
LOAN IS MADE TO THE JOINT
LEGISLATIVE BUDGET COMMITTEE- A
LIST OF THE CASES FOR WHICH THE
LITIGATION PROCEEDS WOULD BE
USED. TO MAKE THAT LOAN. AS WELL
AS TO INCLUDE SOME KEY
INFORMATION FOR EACH OF THE
CASES ON THAT LIST AND AN
EXAMPLE OF THAT INCLUDES- WHEN
THE LITIGATION PROCEEDS WERE
RECEIVED. WHAT STATE FUNDS WOULD
HAVE BEEN ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE
THOSE MONEYS AS WELL AS ANY
RESTRICTIONS ON THE USE OF THE
FUNDS. AND THIS INFORMATION IS
GOING TO BE REALLY CRITICAL WHEN
LOAN REPAYMENTS OCCUR. TO MAKE
SURE THAT THE STATE IS IN
COMPLIANCE WITH THE COURT
SETTLEMENTS. SORRY THE
SETTLEMENT AGREEMENTS IN THE
COURT JUDGMENTS THAT ARE
UNDERLYING EACH OF THOSE CASES.
IF YOU TURN TO PAGE SEVEN OF
YOUR AGENDA. I'M JUST AS A
REMINDER TO THE COMMITTEE WE
PREVIOUSLY PROVIDED
RECOMMENDATIONS ON THAT
CONCEALED CARRY WEAPON PROPOSAL
AS WELL AS THE AMMUNITION
AUTHORIZATION PROGRAM. AT YOUR
HEARING ON APRIL TWENTY SEVENTH
SO WE WON'T. REPEAT THOSE AGAIN.
THE THIRD ITEM WAS PRESENTED BY
THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE WHICH
IS THE FIREARM INFORMATION.
TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM MODERNIZATION
PROJECT FOR SOME. ON THIS ONE WE
RECOMMEND THAT THE LEGISLATURE
PROVIDE FUNDING ONLY NECESSARY
TO COMPLETE THE ALTERNATIVES
ANALYSIS. STAGE OR STAGE TWO OF
THE STATE'S PROJECT APPROVAL
LIFECYCLE. PROCESS AS WELL AS TO
MAINTAIN BASELINE COSTS PENDING
LEGISLATIVE APPROVAL OF THAT
ALTERNATIVES ANALYSIS. IN
CONVERSATIONS WITH DOJ THEY
ESTIMATE THAT THAT REPORT OR
THAT ANALYSIS WILL BE SUBMITTED.
FOR POSSIBLE TO THE CALIFORNIA
DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY FOR
REVIEW AT THE END OF TWENTY
TWENTY THREE OR THE BEGINNING OF
TWENTY TWENTY FOUR. AND SO AS AN
EXAMPLE IT WOULD BE REASONABLE
FOR THE COMMITTEE TO PROVIDE
FUNDING JUST FOR THE BUDGET YEAR
FOR TWENTY THREE TWENTY FOUR BUT
NOT PROVIDE ANY OF THE ON GOING
FUNDING. CAN WE MAKE THIS
RECOMMENDATION BECAUSE- THE
PROJECT MAY HAVE SIGNIFICANTLY
CHANGED FROM WHEN THE
LEGISLATURE LAST CONDUCTED ITS
MEANINGFUL REVIEW WHICH WAS IN
JUNE OF TWENTY TWENTY. WHEN THEY
COMPLETED STAGE ONE OF THE
PROCESS. AND SO GIVEN THE
POTENTIAL COMPLEXITY. AND COST
OF THIS PRODUCT OF THIS PROJECT-
IT WOULD BE PREMATURE TO PROVIDE
ONGOING FUNDING BEFORE THE
LEGISLATURE HAS A CHANCE TO
REVIEW THE ALTERNATIVES
ANALYSIS. IN PARTICULAR GIVEN
THE STATE'S. BUDGET SITUATION AS
REFERENCED BY MY COLLEAGUE THE
LEGISLATURE WOULD LIKELY HAVE
SOME THOUGHTS IN TERMS OF HOW
THE PROJECT WOULD PROCEED AND BE
FUNDED WHICH COULD THEN IMPACT
TO THE NEEDS FOR ON GOING
RESOURCES AND HOW WE- AND HOW WE
FUND- ON PAGE SEVEN THE LAST
ITEM THAT WILL COVER- IS THE-
OFFICE OF GENERAL COUNSEL
PROPOSAL THAT WASN'T PRESENTED
BY THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
WE'RE GOING TO BRIEFLY SUMMARIZE
THAT FIRST BEFORE PROVIDING. YOU
WITH OUR COMMENTS. SO THAT WAS
IN APRIL FINANCE PROPOSAL IT
PROPOSES TO INTERNALLY RIDHA RE
DIRECT. THIRTEEN POINT EIGHT
MILLION GENERAL FUND AND SEVENTY
FIVE POSITIONS WITHIN THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE THE
REDIRECTION REALLY COMES FROM
THREE AREAS- SIX POINT TWO
MILLION IN NINETEEN POSITIONS
WOULD COME FROM THE CIVIL LAW.
SECTION FOUR POINT SIX MILLION
IN THIRTY SIX POSITIONS WOULD
SHIFT THE ENTIRETY OF THEIR
RESEARCH CENTER TO THIS NEW
OFFICE. AND THEN THREE MILLION
AND TWENTY I. T. POSITIONS FROM
THEIR CALIFORNIA JUSTICE
INFORMATION SYSTEM OR C. JUST
DIVISION WHICH IS THE HUB OF ALL
OF THE I. T. ACTIVITIES. WOULD
RESULTS- WOULD ALSO BE SHIFTED
OVER HERE WHICH WOULD ALSO
INCLUDE SHIFTING THE ENTIRE
CYBER SECURITY UNIT UNDER THIS
NEW UNIT. AND SO WHEN WE
REVIEWED THIS PROPOSAL AND THESE
ARE MORE COMMENTS FOR
CONSIDERATION RENDON THEIR
RECOMMENDATION. IT WAS ACTUALLY
UNCLEAR TO US WHETHER OR NOT
THIS NEW PROPOSED OFFICE WOULD
BE THE MOST EFFECTIVE AND
EFFICIENT WAY. OF ACHIEVING SOME
OF DOJ'S GOALS RELATED TO RISK
MITIGATION FOR EXAMPLE TO. TO
GIVE AN EXAMPLE OF THAT ONE OF
THE GOALS WAS TO IMPROVE
INFORMATION SECURITY AND RISK
MITIGATION. SO CURRENTLY THE
CYBER SECURITY UNIT IS LOCATED
WITHIN CETUS KIND OF THE HUB FOR
DOJ'S I. T. ACTIVITIES. AND ITS
CHIEF INFORMATION SECURITY
OFFICER THE C. I. S. O.
CURRENTLY REPORTS TO THE CHIEF
OF SIEGES WHO IS THE CHIEF
INFORMATION OFFICER THAT CHAU-
AND SO RATHER THAN IF THAT YOU
KNOW IF THAT'S A CONCERN RATHER
THAN THINKING ABOUT REORGANIZING
WITHIN CGS- WHICH WAS A
POSSIBILITY. THIS PROPOSAL WOULD
PROPOSE TO TRANSFER THE ENTIRE
CYBER SECURITY UNIT TO THE
GENERAL COUNSEL. AND IT WOULD
ALSO HAVE THE CAISO THAT CHIEF
INFORMATION SECURITY OFFICER
REPORTING TO THE ATTORNEY- THE
GENERAL COUNSEL WHOSE EXPERTISE
IS. IN LEGAL AREAS. RATHER THAN
THE CHIEF INFORMATION OFFICER AS
IT CURRENTLY IS AND IN
PARTICULAR WE WOULD NOTE THAT
THIS IS IN DIRECT CONTRAST TO
STATE LAW THAT GENERALLY
REQUIRES MOST APARTMENT SPOT DOJ
BUT MOST OTHER DEPARTMENTS. TO
HAVE THEIR CSOS REPORT TO THEIR
CHAU. AND SO WE WANTED TO FLAG
THIS FOR THE LEGISLATURE BECAUSE
IN PARTICULAR THE LEGISLATURE
HAS INTEREST. AN INCENTIVE TO
MAKE SURE THAT THE INFORMATION
THAT IT'S GETTING FROM DOJ
RELATED TO THESE I. T. AREAS IS
OF GOOD QUALITY. AND THE REASON
FOR THAT IS DOT IS ONE OF THE
DEPARTMENTS THAT IS NOT SUBJECT
TO CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF
TECHNOLOGY OVERSIGHT AND THE IN
FACT ACTUALLY CERTIFY THEIR
COMPLIANCE THAT THEY MEET
CERTAIN MINIMUM INFORMATION
SECURITY. MANAGEMENT
REQUIREMENTS DIRECTLY TO THE
LEGISLATURE AND SO THAT'S WHERE
YOU HAVE KIND OF INCENTIVE TO
MAKE SURE THAT THE QUALITY OF
INFORMATION IS REALLY GOOD. AND
SO THAT WILL CONCLUDE OUR
COMMENTS HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY
QUESTIONS AND I DO APOLOGIZE FOR
THE SIGNIFICANT USE OF
ALGORITHMS ON THE ISLAND THAT
WAS- THAT WAS A LOT TO GET OUT
SO. SHE'S OKAY- THANK YOU ALL
VERY MUCH I APPRECIATE YOUR YOUR
PRESENTATION- JUST WITH GOING
BACK TO THE BE A CC- AND MOVING-
TO THE- ES. MIXTURE HERE.
ANYTHING. COULD YOU- DO YOU KNOW
WHY THE BSE C. HAS NOT THE
FUNDING FOR THE BUY BACK PROGRAM
IS NOT GOING OUT. YES HE'S HE'S
PRESENT AND I'LL CERTAINLY LET
THEM COMMENT AS WELL I THINK THE
WATER IS THE NATURE OF THE WAY
THE PROGRAM WAS SPECIFIED WHEN
THE PREPARATIONS MADE THAT. OKAY
. THANK YOU HI HI. COME
SENTIMENT OF THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE- THE BSE C. M. IS
CURRENTLY HAVE THEY CURRENTLY
HAVE REQUIREMENTS TO DO A
COMPETITIVE GRANT PROGRAM ALONG
WITH THE 10% MATCH. AND THEY ARE
REQUIRED TO GO THROUGH SPECIFIC
PROCESS SEES THAT TAKE TIME TO
GET THE GRANT FUNDS OUT SO-
THAT'S WHY THE FUNDING HASN'T
BEEN SPENT YET BECAUSE THEY THEY
HAVE TO GO THROUGH- AND GET IN
ADVISORY COUNCIL TOGETHER- AND
SET UP VERY SPECIFIC PROCESSES
THAT TAKE TIME- AND SO- WITH
THIS CHANGE- IT'S- INTENDED TO
TAKE AWAY THE COMPETITIVE.
COMPONENT PART AS WELL AS THE
MATCH PART AND ALLOW- YES TO
WORK ON GETTING THOSE FUNDS AND
WORK WITH THE LOCAL PARTNERS AND
GET THE- FUNDING OUT AS QUICKLY
AS POSSIBLE- AS THE WORK WITH
THOSE LOCAL PARTNERS. I WANTED
TO ALSO- PROVIDE SOME ADDITIONAL
CONTEXT I'M KATIE HOWARD THE
EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE PSEC
HIGH STANDARDS- LAST YEAR'S
BUDGET INCLUDED FIVE NEW
COMPETITIVE GRANT PROGRAMS FOR
THE PSEC SOME OF THOSE WE HAD TO
PRIORITIZE BASED ON ENCUMBRANCE
DEADLINES FOR WHEN THE FUNDING
HAD TO BE PUT OUT INTO THE
FIELD. IN PARTICULAR THAT
APPLIED TO THE- MOBILE PROBATION
SERVICES GRANTS WE HAD TO MOVE
ON THAT ONE FIRST WE THEN- WE'VE
BEEN HAVING ACTUALLY OF A FAIR
AMOUNT OF DIFFICULTY IN THE LAST
TWO OR THREE YEARS GETTING
VOLUNTEERS TO COME AND WORK ON
OUR EXECUTIVE STEERING
COMMITTEES TO BUILD THESE
GRANTS. SO WE HAD OF SOLICITED
AND TRY TO GET PEOPLE TO SIGN UP
FOR GUN BUY BACK ORGANIZED
RETAIL THEFT VERTICAL
PROSECUTION ON THE MOBILE
PROBATION GRANT MISSING AND
MURDERED INDIGENOUS PEOPLE ALL
OF THESE NEW PROGRAMS THAT WE'VE
BEEN WORKING ON. AND WE JUST. I
THINK PART OF IT IS PANDEMIC
RELATED FATIGUE PEOPLE JUST
DON'T SEEM TO HAVE THE EXTRA
TIME TO VOLUNTEER AND DO THIS
WORK IT'S A LOT OF WORK SO WE
SIMPLY HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET
TO THE GUN BUY BACK- PROGRAM
YET- WE DIDN'T HAVE SUFFICIENT
COMMITTEE MEMBERS. AND AS-
MISTER BENSON HAD ALREADY
EXPLAINED AND CINDY AS WELL- THE
COMPETITIVE PROCESS DOES TAKE
LONGER SO MY UNDERSTANDING OF
WHAT THE- PART OF THE- THOUGHT
PROCESS WAS IN MAKING THIS
CHANGE IS THAT. IT'S NOT
DESIGNATED TO BE A COMPETITIVE
GRANT. WHICH TAKES MUCH LONGER
SO I THINK THE ADMINISTRATION
FEELS LIKE- YES IT'S GOING TO BE
ABLE TO PUT IT OUT IN THE FIELD
MORE QUICKLY AND THAT'S THE POOL
HERE SO I JUST ALSO WANTED TO
LET YOU KNOW- THERE'S JUST BEEN
A WHOLE LOT OF GRANT WORK ON OUR
PLATE SO I. WANTED TO LET YOU
KNOW THAT OKAY THANK YOU. IS
THERE ANYTHING I KNOW- I THINK
MISTER VINCENT SOMEONE
DESCRIBES- THE BUY BACK
PROGRAMME UNDER ON THE SEC. HAS
WEEK REQUIRED CERTAIN
CONDITIONS- AND SO I GUESS MY
QUESTION IS. DOES THAT MEAN THAT
BY. ON MOVING IT OVER TO- E. S.
THAT THOSE CONDITIONS ARE LIFTED
THEY'RE NO LONGER REQUIRED I'M
NOT SURE WHAT CONDITIONS. YOU
MEANT BUT- DOES THAT MEAN
EVERYTHING. IS GETS TO BE DONE
HOWEVER THEY WANT TO DO IT OR-
WELL SO. COUPLE OF THE ONES WE
ALREADY MENTIONED IS THERE'S A
MATCH REQUIREMENTS I THINK AS WE
SWITCH OVER- YES THE THOUGHT AS
WE WOULD NOT HAVE A MATCH
REQUIREMENTS OF- YES WILL STILL
PARTNER WITH LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT. TO TRY AND DEVELOP
WHAT'S THE BEST WAY IS TO JUST
ROLL UP PROGRAM SET UP- BUT
WE'RE NOT REQUIRING A MATCH
WHICH I THINK IS DIFFICULT FOR A
LOT OF LOCAL. ENTITIES TO BE
ABLE TO COME UP WITH IN ORDER TO
PARTICIPATE IN A PROGRAM LIKE
THIS SO. WE WANTED TO TAKE THAT
AT THAT COMPONENT OUT- THERE'S
ALSO IS WAS TALKED ABOUT THERE'S
A REQUIREMENT TO. PUT TOGETHER A
COMMITTEE AND DEVELOP SOME OTHER
SO IT'S THE DELIVERY PROCESS
THAT WE EXPECT TO BE DIFFERENT-
I DON'T KNOW RIGHT NOW WHETHER
OR NOT- UNDER- YES WE WOULD DO
IT AS- A FORMULA GRANT. OR IF WE
WOULD DO SOME SORT OF STATE
SPONSORED EVENTS ARE. THERE
DIFFERENT WAYS THAT IT COULD BE
DELIVERED BUT THE IDEA IS TO
PARTNERSHIP WITH BOTH LOCAL LAW
ENFORCEMENT TO FIGURE OUT SOME
OF THE BEST WAY TO DELIVER IT.
SO THAT THE MONEY CAN GET INTO
THE FIELD QUICKLY AND THAT WE
CAN START YOU'RE TRYING TO GET
SOME OF THE YOU KNOW. SOME SOME
GUNS OFF THE STREET THAT THAT
DON'T NEED TO BE THERE. FOR THE
FOR THE PROPER IT WANTS TO
TRYING COLLECTED. OKAY YES MISLI
- ANNUALLY WITH THE LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST'S OFFICE I THINK IT
MIGHT BE A LITTLE BIT HELPFUL
FREE PROVIDE A LITTLE BIT OF
CONTEXT FROM THE OLD LEGISLATIVE
DELIBERATIONS THAT HAPPENS
ALASKA AROUND BECAUSE THERE'S A
LOT OF CONVERSATION THAT. THEN
LED TO THE BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE
THAT WAS INCLUDED AS PART OF THE
PSEC. PROGRAM THE FIRST IN TERMS
OF THE SORT OF THE MATCH- I
WOULD NOTE THAT IT WAS. IT WAS
DECIDED IT WAS A 10% CASH OR IN
KIND AND SO I THINK IN TERMS OF
THINKING ABOUT IN KIND AND KIND
ALSO. INCLUDES YOU KNOW
PARTICIPATION FOR EXAMPLE OF
LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS
AND SO I THINK. THAT THAT WAS A
CONSIDERATION THAT WAS
INCORPORATED INTO IT. MY
COLLEAGUE MISTER SIMPLE
MENTIONED YOU KNOW THERE WAS
ALSO A FOCUS ON USING EVIDENCE
BASED PRACTICES TO- BASED ON
RESEARCH. TO FOCUS ON THINGS
THAT WERE MORE LIKELY TO THEN
REDUCE. GUN VIOLENCE. AND TO
THOSE INCLUDED THINGS LIKE.
MAKING SURE WORKING GUNS- THAT
WERE PROVIDED BEFORE PROVIDING
INCENTIVES FOCUSING ON AREAS
THAT POTENTIALLY HAVE HIGHER.
CRIME RATES- IN AS PART OF THAT
AS PART OF THE APPLICATION THE
LEGISLATURE INCLUDED LANGUAGE TO
THEN ALSO REQUIRE THE SUBMISSION
OF DATA. THE BASICALLY ESTABLISH
CERTAIN LEVELS OF PROOF. IN
ORDER TO HELP PRIORITIZE WHERE
THE MONEY COULD MOST. BE
MEANINGFUL AND BEING MORE
HELPFUL. IN ADDITION TO THIS
JUST IN TERMS OF THINKING ABOUT
THE CONTEXT OF IT. THE
LEGISLATURE HAS TAKEN ACTION
OVER A NUMBER OF YEARS TO PUT
MONEY RELATED TO FIREARMS SO IS
A REALLY GOOD EXAMPLE OF IT TO
BE PROACTIVE FOR EXAMPLE. THE
LEGISLATURE AS PART OF LAST
YEAR'S BUDGET PUT FORTY MILLION
ONE TIME- AT THE JUDICIAL BRANCH
TO REMOVE FIREARMS FROM
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE SUBJECT TO
DOMESTIC VIOLENCE RESTRAINING
ORDERS RESTRAINING ORDERS
GENERALLY OTHER CIVIL GUN
VIOLENCE RESTRAINING ORDERS.
CIVIL ORDERS THE TIME THE BECAME
PROHIBIT SO IT WAS KIND OF THE
VARIOUS LIKE A TO A TO A VARIOUS
PRONGS- APPROACH RELATED TO THAT
SO I THINK THAT'S HELPFUL FOR.
THE LEGISLATURE AS THEY CONSIDER
IT THE ONE LAST THING THAT WE
WOULD ALSO HIGHLIGHT IS ON THE
JUDICIAL BRANCH ITEM RIGHT WE
WERE TALKING ABOUT THE BRAIN
SCAN. PROGRAM THOSE FEDERAL
FUNDS WE WOULD NOTE THAT IN THE
FEDERAL FUNDS THAT ARE COMING
THE LOCAL COMPONENT. IS
ACTUALLY- GOING THROUGH THE PSEC
PROCESS RIGHT NOW BUT IT IS
ENVISIONED THAT ONE OF THE
ELIGIBLE PROGRAMS ALSO ON THAT
SIDE WOULD BE GUN BUYBACK
PROGRAMS AS WELL SO. I DO ALSO
KIND OF WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT
YOU DO HAVE THIS OTHER SOURCE OF
FEDERAL FUNDING THAT IS NOW KIND
OF BEING AVAILABLE FOR THAT
PURPOSE SO HOPEFULLY THAT HELPS
WITH THE DISCUSSION ON THAT
ITEM. OKAY SOME OF THOSE- OF
COLD CONDITIONS THAT SOME OF
THOSE ISSUES. ARE THEY- ARE THEY
GOING TO BE TRANSFERRED OVER TO
A- YES. PUT IT PUTTING ASIDE THE
GRANT. OF PROCESS AS AS YOU
DESCRIBED AS BEING. TOO SLOW BUT
THESE OTHER ISSUES WE DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE GRANT TO
JUST. OBVIOUSLY IMPORTANT ISSUES
WITH THOSE TRANSFER ALSO TO- YES
SO WE'RE CERTAINLY OPEN TO
DISCUSSING WITH LIGHT STAFF WHAT
WHAT WHAT. WHICH PORTIONS OF
PROVISIONAL LANG FROM LAST YEAR
SHOULD MAYBE BE RETAINED IN AND
WORKABLE SENATE WITH INTERNAL
YES PROCESS- YOU THINGS LIKE
EVIDENCE BASED TO MEAN THAT WE
CERTAINLY PLAN ON PARTNERING
WITH LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT
FINDING OUT HIS PROGRAMS THEY
ALREADY RUN. AND WHAT'S
SUCCESSFUL AND WHAT'S NOT SO
GETTING BEST PRACTICES THAT WAY.
IT WAS CERTAINLY IN A PART OF
WHAT WE ESTAS- BUT IT LOOKS LIKE
WE'RE OPEN TO DISCUSSING LAST
YEAR PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE AND
FIND OUT WHAT'S MISTER.
TECHNICALLY THAT IT WAS
LEGISLATION THAT. WERE THIS WAS
ALL THESE CONDITIONS WERE ALL
INCLUDED OR HAVE BEEN INCLUDED
MULTIPLE IT WAS LIKE. IT'S AN
BUDGET BELT LANGUAGE SO WHEN IT
WAS NEGOTIATED AS PART OF THE
BUDGET PROCESS RIGHT WHEN THE
LEGISLATURE REACHED AGREEMENT
WITH THE ADMINISTRATION SO IT
WAS SOMETHING THAT WAS.
DISCUSSED IN ACTIVELY DECIDED ON
SO THAT'S WHAT WE WITH AN
IMPROVED AND APPROVED YEAH. I
JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT. WE'RE
NOT GONNA SIDESTEP. WHAT HAS
ALREADY BEEN. DONE THIS. WITH
THE LEGISLATURE BECAUSE REMOVING
IT. TO YES SO CERTAINLY
APPRECIATE THAT WELL I GUESS
WE'RE WE'RE OPEN TO DISCUSSING
PROVISIONAL ENGLISH ONE STAFF
WOULD BE BEST TO CONTINUE TO
CARRY OVER THE IDEAS FOR
REIMAGINE. PROGRAM IN A WAY THAT
ALLOWS IT TO GO FORWARD MORE
QUICKLY AND SO SOME OF THAT
STUFF COULD RETAIN. SOME OF IT
MIGHT NOT WORK IN THAT CONTEXT
BUT OKAY. THANK YOU THANK YOU
VERY MUCH- THE- ON THE- FUNDING.
RELATED TO FLOODING- COULD YOU
DESCRIBE THAT A LITTLE BIT MORE
IN TERMS OF WHAT IT'S ACTUALLY
FOR. IS IT LEVY. REPAIR OR IS
IT. COSTS NOT COVERED BY
INSURANCE- AND WHO WILL DECIDE
WHAT TO SPEND THE FUNDING. SO
THE ADMINISTRATION WILL PUT
TOGETHER PROPOSALS- THAT WHERE
WELL PUT TOGETHER- PLANNED
ALLOCATIONS THAT WE WOULD NOTICE
LEGISLATURE ABOUT IN TERMS IN
TERMS OF DECIDING HOW IT'S DONE.
THE MYSTERY FOR COURSE WORK WITH
THE W. R. AND- CDFA IN OTHER
DEPARTMENTS OF SERVING PACKED-
HAVE PROGRAMS THAT HELP WITH THE
IMPACTS OF THOSE COMMUNITIES AND
ALSO FOR EXAMPLE. OF SOME OF THE
WAYS THAT IT COULD BE USED WOULD
BE FOR- LIKE FARMWORKERS RELIEF-
OTHER ECONOMIC IMPACTS THAT WILL
RESULT FROM IT. IT'S NOT
ENVISIONED TO GO TOWARDS LIKE
LETTER REPAIR TYPE OF PROJECTS
THERE'S OTHER FUNDING THAT'S
BEEN APPROPRIATED OVER LAST
SEVERAL YEARS- AND SOME
ADDITIONAL PROPOSED THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET THAT WOULD BE-
SPECIFICALLY TO LEVEL THE LEVY
TYPE PROJECTS SO IT'S SURE TO
FILL IN A GAP OF. YOU HAVE THE
DISASTER RESPONSE EMERGENCY
OPERATIONS A COUNTER TRIO-
THAT'S USED FOR SORT OF
IMMEDIATE- EMERGENCY OPERATIONS
ACTIVITIES AND SO WHEN YOU THINK
OF THE IMPACT. GET A LUCKY BREAK
THERE'S THE IMMEDIATE STAFFING
TO DO SORT OF A PATCH IT YOU FOR
TEMPERATURE SWIFTWATER RESCUE
WORK SOME OF THE OTHER THINGS WE
MISS HAVING A MEDICAL STATIONS
ARE YOU BRING WATER IN SOME OF
THIS IMMEDIATE RESPONSE THINGS
THAT WE USE FOR DRILL FOR- BUT
THERE ARE SORT OF MORE PERMANENT
LONG TERM OR MORE SORT OF.
ECONOMIC IMPACT RELATED THINGS
THAT TRIO IS TO IS NOT ELIGIBLE
TO BE USED FOR AND SAID THE ONE
HUNDRED TWENTY FIVE MILLION
WOULD BE USED FOR. THOSE TYPES
OF PROGRAMS WITH SORT OF THE GAP
IN BETWEEN YOUR PERMANENT LEVEE
PROJECTS AND YOUR IMMEDIATE
EMERGENCY RESPONSE STUFF WHERE
YOU'D GO IN AND- TRY AND DO SOME
OF THE- ECONOMIC RELIEF TYPE OF
THINGS WITH FARMWORKERS AND- AND
THOSE TYPES OF. PROJECTS OKAY.
GLAZER IN FARMWORKERS. THE
PEOPLE WHO. MANY OF THE PEOPLE
WHO WOULD BE IMPACTED- AND- THE-
ASSISTANCE TO THE FARMWORKERS
HAS BEEN MENTIONED NINE KNOWN
DIFFERENT CONVERSATIONS THAT
I'VE HAD- COULD YOU TELL ME HOW
COULD I. FIGURE OUT IN TOTAL AND
FROM WHAT POT. IS ACTUALLY
GOING. TO PEOPLE LIKE TO
FARMWORKERS. SO IN THE OVERALL
AND ESPECIALLY IF THEY DON'T
HAVE IMMIGRATION STATUS. YEAH
IT'S WITH SOUGHT SOME OF THAT I
WILL NOT HAVE THE PROGRAMMATIC
EXPERTISE TO PROVIDE RIGHT NOW
THE MORE THAN HAPPY TO FOLLOW
UP. WITH FOLKS THAT DO HAVE TO
GET BACK ON THAT BUT THERE ARE
SOME SPECIFIC- MIKE IS A PART OF
THE TWO HUNDRED NINETY MILLION
DOLLAR FOOT PACKAGE THEY'RE ONE
OF THE ALLOCATIONS IN THERE IS A
TWENTY FIVE MILLION DOLLAR ONE
TIME ALLOCATION. TO A SMALL
AGRICULTURAL BUSINESS RELIEF
GRANT AND SO THAT'S ONE AREA
THAT CERTAINLY GOES VERY
SPECIFIC TO THE- OUR POPULATIONS
ARE. THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT-
BUT I'LL HAVE TO FOLLOW UP WITH-
COLLEAGUES AT FINANCE YOU HAVE-
MORE SPECIFIC- CONNECTION WITH
THOSE PROGRAMS TO GET MORE
DETAILS ON ON THE THANK YOU. AND
ON THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE ON
THE LOCATION DEPOSIT LOAN FUND-
YOU KNOW I REMEMBER IN THE
HEARING WE HAD. DISCUSSED ABOUT
THIS BUT- THERE'S GOING TO BE A
LOAN OF FOUR HUNDRED MILLION
DOLLARS FROM THIS FUND- SHOULD
WE BE USING IT FOR ITS INTENDED
PURPOSES- IT YOU KNOW- ALL OF
THE INTENDED USES OF THE
PENALTIES. AS THEY ARE SIGNED BY
THE COURTS FOR EXAMPLE TENDON
PROTECTION ARE SMALL CLAIMS-
WAGE THEFT- ISN'T THAT WHAT THIS
DEPOSIT I MEAN WE COULD. EASILY
INCREASE- MORE FUNDING TO THOSE
TYPES OF ISSUES AND THOSE NEEDS.
SO WHY WOULD WE- TAKE THIS MONEY
WHERE WE COULD USE IT WHERE IT'S
NEEDED- TO BORROW THAT. HERE
GOVERNOR KEVIN CLARK FROM
FINANCE SO WE DID FACTORED INTO
OUR CALCULATIONS WHEN LOOKING AT
THE AMOUNT THAT WE'RE
RECOMMENDING FOR ALL AS A LOAN
TO THE GENERAL FUND AND THE FOUR
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR AMOUNT
REPRESENTS ROUGHLY ROUGHLY ONE
THIRD OF THE TOTAL BALANCE OF
THE L. D. F. AND SO THAT THE LDF
HAS A ROUGH OF ROUGH BALANCE OF
ONE POINT TWO BILLION AND SO.
THE FOUR HUNDRED MILLION WE
DON'T BELIEVE WILL AFFECT THE
DOJ OPERATIONS AND THE USE OF
THE FUNDS THAT ARE USE OF THE-
DOLLARS OR USE OF THE ARE THE
PROGRAMS THAT UTILIZE THE L. D.
F. AS REVENUE AS A SOURCE OF
REVENUES- AND IT IS A GENERAL IS
A LOAN- SO WE WOULD IT WOULD BE
REPAID- DESSERT TIME PERIOD WHEN
THEY WOULD BE REPAID. WE DON'T
HAVE A SPECIFIC DATES WE ARE
LOOKING AT- OUTSIDE OF THE
BUDGET WINDOWS OF THAT SPEECH ON
TWENTY SIX TWENTY SEVEN I WILL
BE CONTINUING CONVERSATION WITH
THE LEGISLATURE AND THE
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE AS WELL.
TO MAKE SURE THAT THE LOAN WOULD
AND SHE CAN OVERSEE YOU KNOW
INTIMATELY AFFECTING. PROGRAM
OPERATIONS. OKAY. THAT'S ALL I
HAVE. YEAH AND- I THINK WE'LL
JUST WE'LL GO BACKWARDS BECAUSE
WE'RE ALREADY ON THE TOPIC OF-
OF THIS THIS LOAN. SAY SO THE
OUT OUTLAYS I MEAN THE- THE FUND
HAS ONE POINT TWO BILLION. SO HE
SAID. WHAT IS IT EXPAND EVERY
YEAR. WHAT'S EXPENDED OUT OF
THAT. THAT FUND EVERY YEAR. I
DON'T ACTUALLY HAVE THE EXACT
TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS. I DON'T
HAVE THE EXACT AMOUNT WITH ME- I
KNOW THAT THERE ARE THE FUND IS
THE PRIMARY SOURCE OF REVENUES
FOR MULTIPLE DOJ SPECIAL FUNDS.
INCLUDING EIGHT IN TURKEY
GENERAL ANTI TRUST FUND- UNFAIR
COMPETITION LAW FUND OTHER
SPECIAL FUNDS- IF THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT YOU WE CAN BE
HAPPY TO FOLLOW. ME ON THE EXACT
KIND OF. EXPENDITURE AMOUNT
TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS. SO WE
GOT ONE POINT TWO BILLION
DOLLARS SITTING IN AN ACCOUNT
BECAUSE WE'RE COLLECTING WAY
MORE EVERY YEAR. AND WE'RE
EXPANDING. AND AND SO A THIRD
TERM. MY COLLEAGUES QUESTION IS
WHY ISN'T THIS JUST BEING USED
FOR DOJ INSTEAD OF ALONE- WE
SHOULD LOOK IT'S STARTING TO
DRAW THAT DOWN A LITTLE BIT AT
SOME POINT BECAUSE WE'RE
OBVIOUSLY. DON'T NEED THAT MUCH
MONEY SITTING IN THAT ACCOUNT-
AND PERHAPS THIS IS A BETTER WAY
THAN THAN LOANING THE GENERAL
FUND THAT. PERHAPS DOJ PAYS FOR
DOJ STUFF AND THOSE PROGRAMS
BECAUSE THEY CAN DO BOTH- AT
THIS POINT- BECAUSE- THE LAST
THING OUR GENERAL FUND NEEDS IS
ANOTHER LOAN TO PAY BACK. SO
THAT WAS THE- THAT'S MY CONCERN
ON THAT ONE IS REALLY MUCH IN
ALIGNMENT WITH MY COLLEAGUES
THERE- SEE THERE'S ANOTHER. OKAY
NOW WE'RE OKAY WE'RE GONNA GO
BACKWARDS TO THE GUN BUY BACK
PROGRAM. SO THAT WE WERE
SWITCHING IT FROM ONE AGENCY TO
ANOTHER THAT'S GOING TO BE IN
CHARGE OF THE OF THE GUN BUY
BACK PROGRAM. MY ISSUE WITH WITH
IT IS SOMETHING THAT WAS BROUGHT
UP- BY THIS GENTLEMAN- EIGHT
ABOUT ITS EFFECTIVENESS. THERE
ARE CITIES THAT HAVE DONE GUN
BUYBACK PROGRAMS LA CITY HAS HAS
DONE THAT- BUT AT THE END OF THE
DAY. WAS IT EFFECTIVE. NOW I CAN
ANSWER THE QUESTION NO IT WASN'T
EFFECTIVE SO WE'RE GOING TO
SPEND TWENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS- AND A BUNCH OF TIME
TRYING TO DO. EIGHT THE GRANT SO
THE CITY CAN ACCESS THE GRANT
MONEY TO DO GUN BUY BACK
PROGRAMS THAT ARE NOT EFFECTIVE
IN THE SOLE PURPOSE OF THE BUY
BACK PROGRAM WHICH IS TO REDUCE
GUN VIOLENCE. AND I KIND OF FEEL
LIKE THAT TWENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS CAN BE BETTER PUT TO
USE- EIGHT TRYING TO GET THE
GUNS FROM THE ALREADY- ARMED AND
PROHIBITED PERSONS THAT ARE OUT
THERE THERE'S TWENTY FOUR
THOUSAND- BECAUSE I THINK. THOSE
ARE THE PEOPLE MOST LIKELY TO
ACTUALLY USE THE GUN. AND THAT
WOULD HAVE AN EFFECT ON. IT LOOK
AT LEAST TEMPORARILY UNTIL THEY
GO TO GRAB ANOTHER ONE. OF THE
OTHER CONCERN I HAVE ABOUT THE
BUY BACK PROGRAM IS- IS. WHEN
SOMEBODY BRINGS A GUN THAT WAS
RECENTLY USED AND- AND TURNS IT
IN FOR THE BUY BACK PROGRAMME
HOW DO THEY PREVENT THAT FROM
BECOMING- BECAUSE- SOMETIMES
THAT'S THE WEAPON THEY USED. ON
A CRIME HOW DO THEY TRACK THEM
BACK IF THEY'RE NOT IF THEY TURN
IT IN. HOW HOW DO THEY USE THAT
WHAT KIDS AFTER ME A LOT OF
TIMES THAT THE BILL THE
DETECTIVES WANT THE WEAPON. BUT
IF THEY PUT IT INTO THE GUN BUY
BACK PROGRAM. IT'S A GOOD WAY OF
GET RID OF YOUR GUN THAT IS NOW
. TRACEABLE TAKE TO- YOU KNOW
THE CRIME. I SAW A BACK STRUGGLE
WITH THE GUN BUY BACK PROGRAM
YOU CAN SEE. BUT I STRUGGLE MORE
WITH SINKING TWENTY FIVE MILLION
DOLLARS INTO SOMETHING. THAT IS
NOT EFFECTIVE. IN CERTAIN DO YOU
HAVE ANY STUDIES THAT SHOW THAT
IS EFFECTIVE IS THERE ANY LIKE
EVEN ONE. THAT SAYS THIS IS AN
EFFECTIVE WAY OF REDUCING GUN
VIOLENCE. I DON'T HAVE ANY
STUDIES UNFORTUNATELY I KNOW
THAT THE L. U. S. WILL WORK WITH
LOCAL LAW ENFORCEMENT A TRAIN-
BUT- CONSIDER A NUMBER OF THIS
FACTOR CENTERS OF PUT SOMETHING
TOGETHER FOR IT. I DON'T HAVE
ANY STUDIES OKAY FINALLY WITH
THE L. A- SO WHEN THIS PROPOSAL
FIRST EMERGED AS PART OF LAST
YEAR'S BUDGET PACKAGE- OUR
OFFICE DID LOOK TAKE A LOOK AT
SORT OF WHAT RESEARCH WAS
AVAILABLE OUT THERE. THE
RESEARCH WAS A LITTLE BIT MIXED-
SOME OF THE SUCCESSES OCCURRED
IN COUNTRIES THAT HAVE YOU KNOW
FOR EXAMPLE AUSTRALIA'S
OFTENTIMES ISN'T ISN'T IT IS IT
AS AN EXAMPLE. BUT HAS A VERY
DIFFERENT KIND OF GUN REGULATORY
STRUCTURE. THAN WE HAVE HERE IN
CALIFORNIA AND THE UNITED STATES
AS A WHOLE- SO IT WAS MIXED I
THINK IN TERMS OF WHEN MY
COLLEAGUE YOU KNOW WHEN WE'RE
HAVING THIS CONVERSATION ABOUT
THE BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE.
INCLUDING LANGUAGE FOR MAKES IT
MOST EFFECTIVE THOSE WERE
PULLING FROM STUDIES- AND THEIR
LIMITED STUDIES THAT KINDA
INDICATED WHERE. LIKE WHAT A
MORE SUCCESSFUL GUN BUY BACK
PROGRAM IS AND SO IT'S LIKE WHAT
ARE THE FACTORS THAT WOULD MAKE
AGAINST BUY BACK PROGRAM. MORE
SUCCESSFUL HOPEFULLY THAT'S A
LITTLE BIT OF THAT DISTINCTION
AND SO I THINK THAT THAT WAS ONE
OF THE THINGS THAT THE
LEGISLATURE THOUGHT ABOUT IN
TERMS OF LIKE IF WE'RE GOING TO
DO A GUN BUY BACK PROGRAM LET'S
AT LEAST MAKE SURE. THAT IS IT
SAYS AS FACT OF AS IT CAN BE.
AND SO HOPEFULLY THAT HELPS- AS
YOUR- AS YOU'RE CONSIDERING THE
PROPOSAL I THANK YOU FOR THAT-
THE LAST QUESTION TOPIC I WANTED
TO COVER WAS- IT WE GOING BACK
TO THE AMMUNITION AUTHORIZATION
PROGRAM. FOR THE FEE INCREASE
FOR THAT- BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO BE
THAT. IF THE- EXISTING
AMMUNITION TRANSACTION FEE WOULD
HAVE TO BE INCREASED BY A FACTOR
OF FIVE OR SIX TO COVER WHAT
THEY NEED. FOR THE PROGRAM.
WHICH AND ACTUALLY MAKE. THE FEE
MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE PRODUCT
. I DON'T KNOW THAT THAT'S
PROBABLY A GOOD- TAXING MODEL.
FOR FOLKS THAT ARE. GOING
HUNTING AND THINGS LIKE THAT- SO
HOW DO WE JUSTIFY THAT TO PEOPLE
. THE FEE THAT THEY HAVE TO PAY
. IS MORE THAN THE PRODUCT
THEY'RE BUYING. CANACCORD FROM
OUR FANS WILL HAVE A
REPRESENTATIVE FROM PARTNER
JUSTICE SPIEGEL THAT'S THREE.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU ON YOUR
BOARD OUT THERE SO I THOUGHT YOU
KNOW WHAT LET'S PUT HER TO WORK.
WITH THANK YOU. HI ASHLEY HARP
DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE- IN
RESPONSE TO THE QUESTION
REGARDING THE TRANSACTION FEE
VERSUS THE COST OF AMMUNITION
JUST WANT TO HIGHLIGHT THAT THE
FEE WOULD BE PER TRANSACTION
OKAY- SO SOMEONE COULD PURCHASE
MULTIPLE BOXES OF AMMUNITION AND
WOULD ONLY PAY ONE. FEE SAID
THAT AFTER BY MULTIPLE THE COULD
I JUST SPOKE TO BE A LOT BETTER
IF THEY JUST BOUGHT A WHOLE SLEW
OF IT THAN JUST ONE PACK. THAT
WOULD BE AN OPTION FOR A
SOMEONE. YEAH THAT MIGHT HAVE TO
BE LOOKED AT BECAUSE THAT JUST
ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO BUY A BUNCH
OF AMMUNITION THAT'S JUST GONNA
LAY AROUND. SO ALL RIGHT THANK
YOU THANK YOU FOR. THE ANSWERS
TO MY QUESTIONS. AND I DID HAVE
ONE MORE. ONCE ANSWER THIS ONE
SO THEY'RE GONNA HAVE A SEVENTY
MORE ONGOING POSITIONS IN THE
DOJ. WHAT'S GOING ON FOR
INTERNAL LEGAL ADVICE BECAUSE I
THOUGHT THE DOJ WAS ALL
ATTORNEYS. THOROUGH KEVIN CLARK
FROM FRANCE SO IT'S A NET ZERO
ADJUSTMENT OF CURRENT RESOURCES
CREDIT SO IT'S NOT IT'S NOT
SEVENTY ADDITIONAL POSITIONS A
TRANSFER OF POSITIONS FROM ONE
DEPARTURE FROM ONE UNIT ONE
