THE WE DON'T HAVE A CORE OF
YEAH.
WE WILL START AS A SUBCOMMITTEE.
AND.
WE WILL HEAR BILLS.
WE.

WHEN WE GET A QUORUM SO.
WHAT WE'RE GONNA DO NOW IS START
WITH OUR?

JUDICIARY COMMITTEE CHAIR OF
SOONER JACKSON YOU OF THE FOUR
CENTER. TO TAKE UP ITEM THREE.
AND.
.
WELCOME TO OUR COMMITTEE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS.
AND APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY
TO PRESENT BEFORE YOU.
I AM HERE TODAY TO PRESENT S. B.
TWELVE FIFTY THREE A BILL THAT
WOULD DOUBLE THE FUNDING FOR
STATE LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX
CREDITS.
THAT PROGRAM OVER A TEN YEAR
PERIOD.
ADDITIONALLY THE BILL INCLUDES
THE NEW FEDERAL OPPORTUNITY
STONE TAX INCENTIVE PROGRAM TO
THE LIST OF FEDERAL TAX PROGRAMS
THAT CAN BE PAIRED WITH THE
STATE TAX CREDIT. AS
ADMINISTERED BY THE TAX CREDIT
ALLOCATION COMMITTEE OR T. CAC.
BEFORE I PROCEED I WOULD LIKE TO
ADDRESS TO MATTERS FIRST I'D
LIKE TO THANK THE COMMITTEE AND
ITS STAFF FOR ITS ASSISTANCE
WITH THIS MEASURE ESPECIALLY.
WITH REGARD TO THE PROVISION ON
THE NEW FEDERAL OPPORTUNITY
ZONES AND I WILL BE. A ACCEPTING
AS AUTHORS BISON AUTHORS
AMENDMENT THE RECOMMENDATION THE
COMMITTEE MAKES.
TO MAKE CLEAR THE PROJECTS
RECEIVING A STATE TAX CREDIT
MUST FIRST QUALIFY FOR A FEDERAL
HOUSING LOW TECH THE LOW INCOME
TAX CREDIT.
IT IS MY INTENTION IN GOAL THAT
WE MAXIMIZE OUR FEDERAL MATCH IN
TAX CREDITS SO THIS SUGGESTION
BY THE COMMITTEE. A MAKES CLEAR
THAT SATE TAX CREDIT SHALL NOT
BE GRANTED TO PROJECTS IN
OPPORTUNITIES AMOUNTS TO THE
EXCLUSION OF QUALIFYING FOR A
FEDERAL LOW INCOME TAX
CREDIT.
I'D ALSO LIKE TO NOTE THE CHURCH
THIS MORNING. FRANKLY TO MY
DELIGHT AND SURPRISE I RECEIVED
A LETTER FROM THE CALIFORNIA
BUILDING INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION
NOT ONE OF THE FOLKS THAT.
USUALLY WRITES LETTERS IN
SUPPORT OF MY BILLS.
BUT THE.
THEY AND THE CALIFORNIA
BUSINESS PROPERTY ASSOCIATION
ARE IN SUPPORT OF THIS MEASURE.
AND THERE THERE LETTER WILL BE
FRAMED IN ON MY DESK.
TOMORROW BUT THE LETTER CAME IN
THIS MORNING. AND THERE LETTER
ALSO HIGHLIGHTS THE HIGH MEDIAN
PRICE OF A HOME IN CALIFORNIA
NOW AT FIVE HUNDRED TWENTY NINE
THOUSAND DOLLARS SAID IS. AN
EXTRAORDINARY AMOUNT SOME BUT IT
IS INDEED THE THE MEDIAN PRICE
AS ELL AS THE HIGH COST OF
RENTING IN THE STATE NOW WOULD
AN AVERAGE RENT.
OF NEARLY TWENTY FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS A MONTH.
WHAT CBI A NCB PIANO IS THAT NOT
ONLY DO WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING SHORTAGE BUT
THAT WHEN PAIRED WITH FEDERAL
LOW INCOME HOUSING TAX CREDITS?
OUR STATE TAX CREDITS PROVIDE
ESSENTIAL FINANCIAL SUPPORT THAT
MAKE POSSIBLE NEW AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PROJECTS
AS MENTIONED THE PURPOSE OF THIS
BILL IS TO ADDRESS THE
SIGNIFICANT SHORTFALL IN
FINANCING FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECTS.
AN THE PRESSING NEED FOR THE
STATE.
FOR STATE HOUSING TAX CREDIT
FUNDS.
A RECENT REPORT BY T. CAC FROM
THE DEMAND FOR THE STATE HOUSING
TAX CREDIT NOW EXCEEDS SUPPLY AT
A RATIO OF TWO TO ONE. MEANING
THAT WE ARE RIGHT NOW LEAVING
MILLIONS OF FEDERAL FUNDS ON THE
TABLE AND ONLY CONSTRUCTING HALF
OF THE NEW AFFORDABLE PROJECTS
THAT WE COULD BE BUILDING TO
DAY.
AND BASED ON RECENT DATA FROM
THE CALIFORNIA HOUSING
PARTNERSHIP FOR EVERY DOLLAR OF
STATE FUNDING INVESTED IN AN
AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT THAT
PROJECT RECEIVES ROUGHLY TWICE
THE AMOUNT. IN FEDERAL FUNDS SO
IF I GIVE YOU A DOLLAR AND YOU
GIVE ME BACK TO DOLLARS THAT'S A
DEAL. AND WHEN COMBINED WITH
PRIVATE FUNDING A DOLLAR STAY
FUNDS BRINGS IN NEARLY THREE
DOLLARS OF ADDITIONAL FUNDING.
MEMBERS THESE ARE FUNDS THAT WE
CANNOT AFFORD TO LEAVE ON THE
TABLE WE ARE WE HAVE COMPLICATED
SOLUTIONS TO OURAFFORDABLE
HOUSING SHORTAGE. AND THEN THERE
ARE THE OBVIOUS ONES AND I
BELIEVE THIS IS CLEARLY ONE OF
THE OBVIOUS ONES IF WE'RE
LEAVING FEDERAL TAX CREDITS ON
THE TABLE FOR LACK OF MATCHING
STATE TAX CREDITS WE MUST FUND
OUR STATE PROGRAM TO GET THOSE
FEDERAL DOLLARS. AND INCREASE
OUR LOW INCOME HOUSING STOCK
WE SHOULD NOT LET THIS
OPPORTUNITY TO SENSIBLY ADDRESS
HOUSING FINANCING CONTINUE TO GO
ON. ON A ADDRESS AND WITH THAT I
WOULD RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR AYE

WELL THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS OFTEN AND I WANNA START
WITH THE APPRECIATION THANK YOU
TO THE COMMITTEE STAFF FOR THEIR
EXTENSIVE WORK ON THIS ISSUE.
WE STARTED LAST YEAR AND WE'RE
HERE TODAY HOPEFULLY WITH ONE
THAT KINDA MEETS MUSTER. UP FOR
THE VOTE I'D LIKE TO BEGIN BY
ACCEPTING THE COMMITTEES
AMENDMENTS AS AMENDED S. B. TALL
TWENTY SIX WOULD DIRECT THE
BUILDING STANDARDS COMMISSION TO
DRAFT A REGULATION. THAT WOULD
ALLOW LOCAL BUILDING OFFICIALS
TO PERMIT EXISTING RESIDENTIAL
PROPERTIES ACCORDING TO THE
BUILDING STANDARDS THAT WERE ON
THE IN THE FACT AT THE TIME.
THEY BELIEVE IT WAS CONSTRUCTED
IN THE CITY OF ANTHONY IF THERE
HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE PROGRAMS
INITIATED OVER THE YEARS TO TRY
AND BRING THESE ACCESSORY
DWELLING UNITS. INTO COMPLIANCE
WITH THE PROGRAMS WERE NOT
SUCCESSFUL THE BIGGEST HURDLE
PROPERTY OWNERS HAVE FEES HAS
BEEN THE COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH
BRINGING THE UNITS UP TO THE
CURRENT BUILDING CODES.
IN ADDITION JURISDICTIONS ACROSS
THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO NOT
AGREE ON THE CURRENT AUTHORITY
FOR LOOKING LOCAL BUILDING
OFFICIALS TO PERMIT. EXISTING
ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS THERE
ARE PROVISIONS IN THE BUILDING
STANDARDS CODE THAT DO ALLOW FOR
BUILDING OFFICIALS TO PERMIT ES
DE USE. BUT THOSE SECTIONS WERE
ORIGINALLY WRITTEN WITH THE
INTENTION OF FOCUSING ON.
ALTERNATIVE METHODS OR
MODIFICATIONS.
THESE SECTIONS WOULD ALLOW FOR
SOMEONE TO USE TECHNOLOGY IN
THEIR HOME. BEFORE THE BUILDING
STANDARDS COMMISSION FORMALLY
ADOPTED THEM AS PART OF THEIR
REVIEW PROCESS.
THE INTENT OF THE BILL IS TO
BRING CODE IN PRACTICE TOGETHER.
OFFICIALLY GRANTING LOCAL
BUILDING OFFICIALS WITH THE
AUTHORITY TO PERMIT EXISTING AID
TO USE IT EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO
FIND OUT WHERE THESE ARE OB
KNEES ON PERMITTED PROPERTIES
ARE. AND BRING THEM UP TO
SUITABLE LEVEL IN THE CODE THIS
WILL ENSURE BEAT THE BASIC
HEALTH. AND SAFETY STANDARDS ARE
WITH ME HERE TODAY TO SPEAK ON
BEHALF OF THE CITY OF ANTHONY
THIS IS JONATHAN CLAY.
YOU SENATOR OF SPEAKERS IN
FAVOR.
GOOD AFTERNOON NOT TERRIBLE
COMMITTEE MEMBERS JOHN THE CLAY
ON BEHALF THE CITY MUTINIES WERE
PLEASED TO BE A SPONSOR OF THIS
BILL ALONG WITH CENTER BATES.
THIS HAS BEEN A OVERLY YOUR
LONG JOURNEY TO GET TO THIS
POINT.
MULTIPLE CONVERSATIONS AT LARGE
COUNCIL.
TOOK A STEP BACK WE THINK AND
INCENTIVES THAT WE HAVE OVER A
THOUSAND.
UNFERMENTED EIGHTY USE THAT ARE
CURRENTLY EXISTING BUT HAVEN'T.
THE PROCESS.
OUR GOAL WITH THIS BILL HAS
BEEN TRYING TO GET TO KNOW WHERE
THOSE UNITS ARE ENSURE THAT
THEIR. COME OUT FROM THE SHADOWS
AND THAT THERE IS SOME LEVEL OF
PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
INVOLVED IN PROTECTING THOSE
RESIDENTS.
.
WHAT WE'VE TRIED TO STRIKE THE
BALANCE IT WITH THIS BILL?
WITH THE GUIDANCE OF LEDGE
COUNCIL IN THE HARD WORK OF THE
COMMITTEE STAFF IS.
CLARIFY WHAT IS COMMONLY VIEWED
AS EXISTING AUTHORITY FOR
BUILDING OFFICIALS TO BE ABLE TO
GO BACK AND LOOK AT EXISTING
EIGHTY YEAR OR ANY EXISTING
STRUCTURE. AND DEAL WILL TO.
APPLY THE STANDARDS AT THE TIME
OF CONSTRUCTION.
THERE IS A DIFFERENCE OF
OPINION ARE OWNED A BUILDING
OFFICIAL AT THE TIME DIDN'T
THINK THAT STATUE LOUD FOR THAT
INSTEAD OF THE LEDGE COUNCIL
PAIN WAS. HELPFUL IN
HIGHLIGHTING THIS BUT ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT CAME OUT OF THAT
OPINION IS THERE IS NO CASE LAW
ON THIS. AND IT IS STILL A
LITTLE YOU COULD PASS THE COIN
ACCORDING TO LEDGE COUNCIL IT'S
UNCLEAR SO. OUR GOAL IS TO PUT A
MARKER IN STATUTE WAS SPECIAL
WITH THE COMMITTEE AMENDMENTS
IDENTIFIED THAT THESE ISSUES ARE
THERE AND THEN.
WORK WITH EACH CD THROUGH THE
BUILDING BECAUSE TO MAKE SURE
IT'S A LOT MORE EXPLICIT PURPOSE
OF THE ALREADY EXISTS.
YOU'LL PROBABLY HEAR ARGUMENTS
TODAY.
AND OPPOSITION FROM BOTH SIDES
OF THE SAME COIN YOU OF ONE
GROUP SAYING THAT THEY OPPOSE
THIS BECAUSE IT'S EXISTING LAW
YOU DON'T NEED THE BILL. YOU'LL
HEAR ANOTHER GROUP. POSSIBLY
ALSO VOICED THEIR OPPOSITION
SAYING THAT THIS PROVINCE
AUTHORITY.
SO.
I THINK THAT DISCOVER SPEAKS TO
THEIR THIS IS AN ISSUE RIGHT FOR
HAVING SOME SORT OF CLARITY AND.
AND WE'RE TRYING TO THREAD THE
NEEDLE MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T
ABANDON THE EXISTING AUTHORITIES
BUT JUST MAKE IT CLEAR THAT THIS
IS ANOTHER TOLL IN THE TOOL BOX
WHEN YOU'RE DEALING WITH.
DISCRETIONARY OF EIGHTY USE THEM
WITHOUT ALL AND AND SEE IF
THERE'S ANY QUESTIONS.
OKAY OF THANK YOU.
.
DO EVERY OTHER SPEAKERS IN
FAVOR.
ABOUT SPEAKERS OPPOSE PLEASE
COME FOR NAY SPEAKERS OPPOSED.
YES PLEASE COME FORTH.
YOU CAN STAND RIGHT HERE IF YOU
WANT.
WHATEVER.
IF YOU YEAR PURE PICKED.
KATIE ALMOND WITH THE
CALIFORNIA BUILDING OFFICIALS
AND WE ARE RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE
THIS MEASURE OKAY WHAT'S THE
REASON.
I WANT TO COME UP HERE PLEASE.
THAT'S YOUR THE BUILDING
OFFICIAL SOUNDS LIKE OKAY BRING
UP THAT'S THE THAT WAS THE.
THAT WAS THE KEY MAGIC WORD.
COULD.
OKAY.
WANT TO TELL US WHY GROUP KNOW
THAT THAT'S IMPORTANT.
AS MISTER CLAY HAD MENTIONED WE
DO BELIEVE THAT THE AUTHORITY
ALREADY EXISTS IN LAW AS IT
STANDS IN THE HEALTH AND SAFETY
CODE. AS WELL AS BUILDING
STANDARDS CODE SO WITH BOTH OF
THOSE ALREADY BEING EXISTING WE
BELIEVE THE AUTHORITY STANDS.
AND THAT IT KNOWN WHAT OTHER.
I STATUE NEEDS WE PUT INTO PLACE
CURRENTLY AND.
BUILDING OFFICIALS ALREADY HAVE
THE AUTHORITY ON A CASE BY CASE
BASIS TO PERMIT THESE PROPERTIES
AND PERMIT THESE RADIOS IN THE
STRUCTURE SO.
SAYING THAT WE THINK THIS
PROCESS IS DUPLICATIVE.
OKAY SO YOU SEE THERE'S NO THERE
THERE IS NOT A.
.
YOU'RE NOT OPPOSED TO IT FOR
ANY.
PACIFIC REASONS IN THE LEAD
STATUTE THAT'S BEEN PROPOSED
OTHER THAN THAT.
YOU THINK IT'S DUPLICATIVE
THAT'S.
IS THERE ANY OTHER REASON OTHER
NOW. AND THERE'S THE OTHER WE
THINK IT ALREADY EXISTS AND THAT
WE THINK THAT IF THERE'S GOING
TO BE ANY OTHER PROCESS PASSAGE
YOU GO TO THE REGULATORY BECAUSE
THAT'S WHERE THE BUILDING
STANDARDS CODE ALREADY GOES
THROUGH.
SO WE WOULD NOT WANT ANYTHING TO
CONFLICT WITH THAT. BECAUSE OF
BUILDING OFFICIALS USED AS THEIR
STANDARD OKAY CAN YOU RESPOND TO
HER.
SURE THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR HOME
AND THIS IS WHERE THE DIFFERENCE
OF OPINION EXISTS BECAUSE UNTIL
THE LEDGE COUNCIL PAN OUR OWN
BUILDING OFFICIAL. WHEN IT'S A
NEED ITS WAS IN THE POSITION A
YEAR AGO WHERE WE HAD A CALL
THE BILL IN FISHEL.
SINCE THEN WE'VE ACTUALLY HIRED
AN INTERNAL.
IN HOUSEBUILDING OFFICIAL. BUT
BOTH OF THOSE GROUPS DID NOT
THINK THE DISTORTED EXISTED AND
THAT'S THE DIFFERENCE OF OPINION
ARE BUILDING OFFICIALS THAT.
USE THIS ON A REGULAR BASIS AND
THERE ARE OTHERS THAT INTERPRET
THE LAW TO SAY THIS CODE WHICH
MEANS THE CURRENT CODE THAT'S ON
THE BOOKS TWENTY SIXTEEN.
OKAY.
.
I I HAVE ANOTHER QUESTION FOR
THE. AYE OPPOSED WHERE IT'S
EITHER SAID APPLE.
.
IT WOULD PUT AMENDMENTS IN HER.
DID SAY THAT.
THIS GOES THROUGH YOUR OF
STANDARDS COMMISSION.
IS THAT A MILL RATE THE CONCERN
THAT YOU HAVE. BECAUSE THAT WILL
ALLOW YOU TO HAVE A REVIEW AND
DISCUSSION AT THE.
FOR MY UNDERSTOOD. THAT WE WERE
ABLE TO LOOK AT THE AMENDMENTS
OVER THE WEEKEND IN THE
PASSENGER ALLEGE COMMITTEE. I
STILL HAVE CONCERNS WITH THAT
WERE STOPPED WATCHING THAT OUT
WOULD BE HAPPY TO CONTINUE TO
WORK WITH THE AUTHOR AND THE
SPONSOR. AND TICKLE LOOK AT THAT
THE MIX A LITTLE BIT OF A
DIFFERENCE WITHOUT NOT TO TAKE
YOUR.
OPPOSITION OKAY SENATOR DODD YOU
OF COURSE YEAH I WOULD MOVE THIS
WHEN IT'S APPROPRIATE MISTER
CHAIR.
BUT I DO.
.
YEAH AS A COUNTY SUPERVISOR FOR
FOURTEEN YEARS WE FOUGHT THIS
BATTLE ALL THE TIME WITH COUNTY
COUNCILS AND DEPENDING UPON. WHO
WAS IN THE ROOM AT THE TIME? I
THERE WAS A DEFERRED OPINION I
THINK CLARIFY IN THIS ONCE AND
FOR ALL IS REALLY IMPORTANT I
APPRECIATE.
YOU BRING THIS BILL BEFORE US
TODAY.
OKAY.
DITTO.
SAME HAVE IN OUR COUNTY.
COUNTY SUPERVISOR ONLY COUNTY
SUPERVISOR HOWEVER VON TO.

WORK THAT WENT ON TO. COME TO.
THE PROPOSAL THAT WE HAVE
BEFORE YOU TODAY REALLY STAFF I
KNOW YOU WE'RE TRULY HARD AND I
WANT YOU KNOW THAT THIS HELP
CINCINNATUS IS A MOVE FORWARD
WITHOUT COMPLIANCE FOR THE
HOUSING ELEMENT WHICH HAS BEEN A
STRUGGLE. AND IF WE HOPE THAT IF
NOT A GIANT STEP IS LISA A STEP
IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR THEM
SO AYE NASTRAN AYE VOTE THANK
YOU.
OKAY THANK YOU I I JUST HOPE
THAT.
.
BY OF THE MEMORY MAKES.

SIR HUESO.
WELCOME.
THERE WE GOT CENTER WEST OF
HERE.
.
SENATE HUESO HAS DIED IN
FOREST'S IS SB TWELVE SIXTY
NINE.
.
AS HIS SCHOOLBOOKS SAFETY BILL.
CENTERS SERVE CAN YOU DESCRIBE
YOUR BILL ON THE.
CLEAR THE FLOOR.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR THIS
BILL.
IS A RESULT OF A LAW PASSED
LAST YEAR THAT WOULD REQUIRE A
TRIGGERING DEVICE PUT INTO BUSES
AS A SAFETY MEASURE.
OF THIS RESULTED FROM.
.
AN INCIDENT.
.
KNOWN A.
WHERE WHERE UP?
A NINETEEN YEAR OLD WITH AUTISM
WAS LEFT IN A BUS AND HE WAS.
FORGOTTEN THEIR.
AND.
INSERT A HEAP AND BASICALLY
SPENT OVER TWENTY FOUR HOURS
CERTAIN HAVE ACCESS TO FOOD OR
WATER AND HE PERISHED ON THE
BUS.
SO THIS WOULD REQUIRE THAT.
.
SCHOOL DISTRICTS A INSTALLED A
TRIGGERING DEVICE WOULD REQUIRE
THE BUS DRIVER TO WALK THE
LENGTH OF THE BUS.
TO.
TO TURN OFF THE BUS.
OR TO PREVENT IT FROM.
.
TRIGGERING AN ALARM.
WE WE RAN THIS BILL BECAUSE
OTHERS BEEN.
ON THE BEHALF OF SCHOOL
DISTRICTS HAVE BEEN OF SOME
CHALLENGES MEDIAN.
THE THE.
.
THE BILL THE REQUIREMENTS OF THE
LAW WHICH REQUIRED THEM TO
INSTALL. THESE DEVICES IN BUSES
BY JULY FIRST.
FOR MANY OF THE DISTRICTS THEY
HAVEN'T HAD ACCESS TO THOSE
DEVICES BECAUSE OTHER ONLY ABOUT
THREE MANUFACTURERS.
WHEN THEY.
.
CODES WERE WERE WERE DEVELOPED
BY THE HIGHWAY PATROL.
.
THAT DOES.
THAT DESIGNED. THESE TRIGGERING
DEVICES.
IT IT DELAYED THE PROGRAM.
SO THE THE NET EFFECT IS THAT
WILL HAVE.
SCHOOL DISTRICTS ACROSS THE
STATE PROBABLY AS BE ISSUED
FINES BECAUSE ARE NOT COMPLYING
WITH THE PROGRAM.
WE WE WERE ASKED TO CARRY THIS
BILL THAT WOULD AVERT REQUIRED
OF THAT WHICH WOULD WOULD
PROVIDE SCHOOL DISTRICTS WITH A
WITH A ONE YEAR EXTENSION.
WE MET WITH.
.
WE'VE MET WITH.
.
THE STATE COUNCIL ON.
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES WHICH
OPPOSED ONE YEAR THEY REQUEST
THEY. ASK FOR SIX WE THOUGHT
SIX.
WAS A REASONABLE.
COMPROMISE AS WE THOUGHT THAT
GIVEN A LOT OF THESE DISTRICTS
ARE NOW RECEIVING THAT SPICES
GIVING THEM SIX MONTHS.
IN ADDITION TO THE TWO THAT ARE
LEFT EIGHT MONTHS TO INSTALL
THIS DEVICES IS NOT.
IT'S NOT UNREASONABLE ESPECIALLY
IN THAT MANY OF THESE DISTRICTS
HAVE ALREADY INSTALLED THESE
DEVICES.
THEY'VE ALREADY IN SOME CASES
THERE ARE SOME.
THEY'RE WELL UNDERWAY TO
COMPLYING WITH THE LAW BY JULY
FIRST I THOUGHT SIX MONTHS.
WAS A REASONABLE.
OUR AMENDMENT NOW ON BE INFORMED
THAT THE SPONSORS OF THE BILL.

GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIR COMMITTEE
MEMBERS THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR
ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK I'M APRIL
LOPEZ CHAIR OF THE STATE COUNCIL
ON DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES.
AND WE WERE.
PART OF FIRE TEN SEVENTY TWO
WITH TRANSPORTATION BILL WORKING
WITH A FAMILY TO PASS HIS BILL
SO NO OTHER CHILD. WOULD BE LEFT
TO DIE IN A BUS BECAUSE THEY
WERE FORGOTTEN.
SO ARM AYE WE'D TRULY APPRECIATE
THE COUNCIL APPRECIATES.
SENATOR HUESO AND HIS STAFF
WITH WORKING US ON A SUN
AMENDING THE BILL. WE THOUGHT IT
WAS A GREAT COMPROMISE AND.
.
SIX MONTHS WHICH REALLY.
EQUATES TO EIGHT MONTHS.
OF AS WELL AS MAKING THE
PRIORITY FOR KIDS WITH SPECIAL
NEEDS THAT ARE BEING TRANSPORTED
TO AND FROM SCHOOL WOULD BE A
PRIORITY.
ALL DISTRICTS ARE DIFFERENT
SOME COULD BE TEN PERCENT OF
THOSE BUSES OR LESS SO.
WE HAVE DONE OUR HOMEWORK AS
WELL CONTACTING.
SEVERAL SCHOOL DISTRICTS
INCLUDING THE MANUFACTURER AND.
.
THERE WILL BE TWENTY FIVE
THOUSAND DEVICES THAT WILL BE
COMPLETED BY MADE TWELVE
THOUSAND HAVE ALREADY BEEN
COMPLETED. SO WE HAVE A LOT OF
RESEARCH HERE.
WE LOOKED AT SOME OF THE
CONCERNS AND.
WE.
THEY'RE NOT VALID AND THEIR NOT
SIGNIFICANT ENOUGH TO PUT
ANOTHER CHILD ON A BUS TO BE
FORGOTTEN.
AND.
WE ARE IN SUPPORT WITH SENATOR
HUESO WITH THE AMENDMENT TO THE
SIX MONTHS.
WITH THE SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS
BEING A PRIORITY.
BEING TRANSPORTED TO AND FROM
SCHOOL.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
I'M NICOLAS CHAVEZ ON BEHALF
CALIFORNIA ASSOCIATION OF SCHOOL
TRANSPORTATION OFFICIALS. I JUST
WANT TO GET CLARIFICATION ON ON
THE AMENDMENT.
YES PLEASE.
OF MEMBER NEVER ONE WEEK VISIT
MEMBERS SUBMITTED.
REQUIRED SCHOOL BUSES WHICH
PROVIDE SERVICES.
SPECIAL NEEDS STUDENTS COMPLIED
BY THE DEADLINE IMPOSED BY S. B.
TENTH.
SEVENTY TWO BUT PROVIDE TO A SIX
MONTH EXTENSION FOR ALL THEIR
SCHOOL BUSES TO COMPLY.
YOU WHO MEMBERS THAT SAID. THANK
YOU FIVE TWO WITNESSES ON. ON
BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION IS GOOD LOOK AT.
WHO'S TWO MINUTES EACH.
GOOD MORNING.
BUT MARTIN WORD.
THANK YOU KAREN MEMBERS I'M WITH
MID PLEDGE OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS
TRANSPORTATION AGENCY A JOINT
POWERS AUTHORITY SERVING FIVE
SCHOOL DISTRICTS.
OUR CONCERN IS WITH THE
COMPLEXITY OF THE SYSTEMS WE
WERE GIVEN AS OF JANUARY.
WE'RE NEEDING TO INSTALL THESE.
IT WE OF COURSE HAD NOT BUDGET
ANYTHING NEAR THE EXPENSE THAT
WE'RE NOW LOOKING AT SO WE HAVE
THAT AS AN ISSUE.
WE CAN NO LONGER SUPPORT S. B.
TWELVE SIXTY NINE WITH THE
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS.
A SCHOOL BUS TRANSPORTATION IS
THE SAFEST TRANSPORTATION IN THE
COUNTRY. THEN YOU CAN SEE THAT
FROM.
HAND ON SCHOOL BUS FACTS DOT
COM.
ALTHOUGH COUNTER INTUITIVE.
EXTENDING THE COMPLIANCE
DEADLINE FROM STALLING CHILD
SAFETY ALERT SYSTEMS IS THE BEST
THING FOR OUR STUDENTS.
WITHOUT EXTENDING THE DEADLINE
WE ARE FACED WITH MAKING A
DECISION OF WHETHER BUSES RUN
WITHOUT THE SYSTEM WHICH WOULD
BE. APPARENTLY IN MY MIND
ILLEGAL.
OR PARKING THOSE BUSES AND THOSE
STUDENTS NEEDING GET TO SCHOOL
ON SOME ALTERNATIVE MATTER.
THAT IS NOT THE BEST PLAN FOR
STUDENTS.
NOBODY DISAGREES OF THE SYSTEMS
WILL HELP PROVIDE A SAFER
ENVIRONMENT FOR OUR STUDENTS WE
NEED THE TIME TO BUILD A PUT
THOSE.
SYSTEMS IN PLACE.
OKAY.
THANK YOU OTHERS SPEAKERS.
GOOD AFTERNOON MY NAME IS JILL
GUY ALTHOUGH I'M HERE
REPRESENTING THE ELK GROVE
UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT WHERE
THE FIFTH LARGEST DISTRICT IN
CALIFORNIA. SERVICING SIXTY
THREE THOUSAND KIDS IN A LITTLE
OVER EIGHTEEN HUNDRED SPECIAL
NEEDS STUDENTS DAILY TRAVEL
ABOUT THREE MILLION MILES A
YEAR.
THREE YEARS AGO WHEN I ALSO
SERVE ON THE CITY COUNCIL FOR
THE CITY OF ROCKLIN SO I DO HAVE
A LOT I APPRECIATE.
AND SUPPORT MY ROCKLAND PEEPS AS
WELL.
THREE YEARS AGO NO GROUP WE
WERE PROACTIVE WE'RE ALL HERE
FOR THE SAME THING WELL ONE OF
WE WANT THESE BUSES TO CONTINUE
TO BE THE SAFEST METHOD.
THIS IS SUCH.
THREE YEARS AGO WE SAID WE'RE
GONNA DO GPS WORKING TO PUT THE
CHILD TECH BUTTONS AND WE DID IT
OURSELVES.
THE ORIGINALLY CAME OUT SAID IT
WAS TO BE A HUNDRED DOLLARS A
BUS I'M PAIN ALMOST A HUNDRED
THOUSAND A YEAR FOR GPS INFORM
US ONLY REAL CLEAR ON THIS. THIS
ONLY WORKS
WITH GPS
WE HAVE BUILT OUR GEO FENCES
AROUND OUR SCHOOL SITES ON OUR
YARD SO THAT WHEN A BUS COMES
IN.
IF THAT DRIVER WITHIN THE TIME I
SET WITHIN A MINUTE THEY HAVEN'T
WALKED TO THE BACK AGAIN TO
ALARM THE BUS STARTS HONKING MY
CELL PHONE GOES OFF AND AGAIN
THE EMAIL ALARM. AND IT'S AN
EXCELLENT TOOL UNFORTUNATELY THE
SYSTEM WE'VE BEEN WORKING FOR
THREE YEARS AND I HAD BOTH CHP
AND CD VISIT US. I'M
PRETTY CERTAIN I'M THE ONLY
LARGE A DISTRICT THAT'S BEEN
USING THIS SYSTEM AND CAN TELL
YOU THE REALITY OF HOW IT WORKS.
UNFORTUNATELY THE SYSTEM THAT'S
BEEN ECOMMENDED NOW DOES NOT
YET IT'S NOT JUST THE INSTALL
THERE ARE BUGS THAT ARE NOT
CORRECTED AND HAS TO BE FIXED
WHERE YOU CAN PUT IT IN BUT IT'S
NOT GOING TO WORK.
UNTIL THEY GET THAT WORKED OUT
THAT'S A CHALLENGE.
THE.
THE OTHER PIECE THAT I THINK IS
A SIX KIND OF A STUNNING LACK OF
WHAT WE DO ARE SPECIAL NEEDS
KIDS RIGHT ON THE BIG BUSES
THAT'S OUR GOAL IT'S THE LEAST
RESTRICTIVE ENVIRONMENT WE DON'T
HAVE THE OLD SCHOOL SPECIAL ED
BUS. WE DO HAVE SOME CERTAINLY
FOR FOR OUTSIDE AREAS WHERE THEY
ATTEND A SCHOOL OUTSIDE OF THEIR
AREA. BUT THE ROAD ON THE BIG
BUS WITH THEIR PEERS AND QUITE
FRANKLY ARE SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS
OVERWHELMINGLY GET DROPPED OFF
AT THEIR CURBSIDE THESE ARE NOT
THE KIDS WE HAVE THE CHALLENGE
WITH. IS MY LITTLE KINDERSLEY
GETS WARM THEY FALL ASLEEP IN
THEIR IN THE BIG BUS AND THE
FEDS OF RAISE THE SEATBACKS ARE
NOW WE GOT ANOTHER FORAGES IT.
THAT YOU'RE NOT SEEN THE KIDS WE
HAVE CAMERAS ON EVERY BUS WE
HAVE LIVE GPS ON EVERY BUS WE'RE
TRYING TO DO OUR PART. BUT NOW
YOU'VE THROWN INTO SYSTEMATICS
THAT WE'VE INVESTED HEAVILY IN
ISN'T GOING TO WORK GIVE US SOME
TIME TO MAKE IT WORK AND PLEASE
COME VISIT OR CALL. WE WANT.
WILL WINNERS GET SAFE BUT HELP
US MAKE THIS WORK FIRST DON'T
JUST SAY DO IT.

ERICA HOFFMAN ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA SCHOOL BOARDS
ASSOCIATION.
AS OF YESTERDAY I SUPPORTED THE
BILL WITH THESE AMENDMENTS THEY
DO RAISE SOME VERY GRAVE
CONCERNS AT THIS POINT IN TIME I
DO WITH WITHDRAW MY SUPPORT OF
THE MEASURE THANK YOU. THANK
YOU.
OF.
PUT A QUESTIONS PREV CENTER WILL
SERVE YOU CAN ADDRESS THE.
CONCERNS.
WILL HAVE QUESTIONS CAN.
SO GAINES AS A QUESTION GOV GO
AHEAD.
POSSIBLY A.
IN LOOKING AT THIS SETUP MEASURE
WITH THIS THIS MEASURE WILL
STILL GIVE A SIX MONTH
EXTENSION.
THAT WILL FROM ONE.
THE WAY WE UNDERSTAND THAT
THESE.
.
DEVICES ARE ARE BEING MADE
AVAILABLE MANY DISTRICTS NOW.
ARE IN A IN.
ARE ALREADY HAVE ACCESS TO
THESE DEVICES.
AND WITHIN THE TIME FRAME THAT
WE.
.
WE HAVE ALREADY.
.
PROVIDED ARE MANY HAVE ALREADY
BEEN INSTALLED. MANY ON OUR ON
THE MANY OF THE DISTRICTS ARE.
WHAT ARE SAID TO BE IN
COMPLIANCE BY THE DEADLINE?
SIX MONTHS I THOUGHT WAS A
REASONABLE EXTENSION GIVEN THAT
DISTRICTS ORIGINALLY HAD SIX
MEANT MONTHS TO COMPLY.
BUT ADDITIONAL SIX MONTHS IS A
REASON ALL REASONABLE.
UP THING TO DO GIVEN.
BUT YOU KNOW. PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE
AT RISK.
AND.
THERE ARE THERE HAVE.
THERE THERE WAS AN INCIDENT
THERE HAVE BEEN INCIDENTS WHERE
HAVE PEOPLE WERE LEFT BEHIND. ON
BUSES CERTAINLY HAS TO BE DONE.
THE LAW IS THE LAW THIS BILL
DOESN'T CREATE THAT LAW SIMPLY
GIVES DISTRICTS IN A SIX MONTH
EXTENSION. I THOUGHT THAT WAS
REASONABLE.
IT'S BETTER THEN.
NOBILITY ALL AND I JUST THOUGHT
THIS IS A A GOOD COMPROMISE TO
STRIKE.
WITH THE ADVOCATES FOR OR FOR.
INDIVIDUALS DISABILITIES AND I
ASKED THE.
THE THE COMMITTEES SPORTS BILL.
SO CENTER YOU'RE WILLING TO
CONTINUOUS CUTS THE BILL WITH.
THAT AFFECTED PARTIES
ABSOLUTELY.
CENTER GAINES.
TO REGAIN YOUR QUESTION.
BUT WHO ELSE YES SIR THANK YOU
SIR RIGHT NOW.
I JUST.
.
OR GET SOME CLARIFICATION TRIMS
THE AMENDMENTS WITH THOSE
SUGGESTED BY THIS COMMITTEE.
NO.
OKAY.
.
THIS SEEMS TO ME.
THEIR VISITED NO MORE
FLEXIBILITY IN THAT TIME FRAME.
BY GOING WITH THAT ONE YEAR
EXTENSION I GUESS MY CONCERN IS
THAT.
WITH THE SHORTER PERIOD IN SIX
MONTHS IF THEY CAN'T MEET AT.
THEN WHERE THE CHILDREN GOING
ARE ARE THEY. A PURSING COULD BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR.
GETTING THOSE KIDS TO AND FROM
AND THERE COULD BE A LOT OF.
UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES AYE. I
SUPPORT YOUR BILL I'M.
.
I MISS THINKING THEY MAY NEED A
FEW MORE BUT THAT ADDITIONAL.
SIX MONTHS.
THEN I I THINK THEY CAN DO IT
WITHIN.
THE SIX MONTH EXTENSIONS ó
HAT'S WHY I'M PUSHING THAT I
THINK THIS GIVES THEM PLENTY
ROOM TO COMPLY.
AND NOBODY NEED.
A.
IT SHOULD BE.
IMPACTED BY THIS BILL.
I'M JUST CONCERNED ABOUT SOME OF
THE TESTIMONY ABOUT THE GLITCHES
IN THE SOFTWARE IF IT TAKES
LONGER I AM TOO THAT'S WHY. I
THOUGHT SIX MONTHS COULD WITH A
QUIRK OF THE GLITCHES IS NOT A
VERY.
COMPLEX
THE VICE.
OF.
I MEAN IT'S IT'S IT.
IT WE HAD ALL AGREED THE REASON
I RAN THE BILLS BECAUSE THERE
WERE SOME GLITCHES IN.
IN.
IN THE MANUFACTURER'S. COULD
DESIGN VERSUS THE.
HIGHWAY PATROL'S REQUIREMENTS.
AND THAT'S WHY THIS LETTER IN
THE BILL AND.
INITIALLY.
NO WE HAD DECIDED ON THE YEAR
PUT UP GET GIVEN.
MY MY EVALUATION OF MY OWN BILL
LIKE I JUST THOUGHT.
SIX MONTHS IS WILL PROVIDE
ADEQUATE TIME FOR IT BUT YOU
COMPLY GIVEN THAT THOSE GLITCHES
OF THEM WORKED OUT TODAY. YES
THERE WAS A DELAY.
IT'S UNFORTUNATE BUT YOU KNOW
WE'RE WAYNE THE SAFETY OF THE
STUDENTS WITH. THE DISTRICT'S
ABILITY TO COMPLY AND AND I I
THOUGHT OF FAIR.
MEASURE WOULD BE TO GIVE THEM AN
ADDITIONAL SIX MONTHS.
THE WRITER.
THANK YOU MISTER.
I'M LOOKING AT THIS IN THE
SCHOOL TRANSPORTATION COALITION
HERE AND I'M LOOKING AT MANY
MANY OF THESE DISTRICTS.
AND I KNOW. MANY AMERICA THE.
IN MY AREA.
AND THEY'RE VERY VERY POOR
DISTRICTS.
AND BECAUSE OF THE OF THE ROLE.
SITUATION AT ALL THE SCHOOLS
ARENA AND A BUNCH OF THEIR
GENERAL FUND MONEY IS ACTUALLY
GOING TO. TRANSPORTATION.
AND SO WHEN IT WHEN THEY HAVE A
POINT OF TALKING ABOUT NOT BEING
ABLE TO SEE BACKLOG. DIDN'T EVEN
HAVE THE DEVICES UNDERSTOOD
DOING BIDDING. BIG THEY WERE YOU
KNOW THIS CAME TO HIM A LOT OF
THEIR GENERAL FUND MONEY IS
GOING TO TRANSPORTATION.
BECAUSE THE WAY THINGS ARE SET
UP I'M.
IS THERE ANY WAY THAT WE COULD
EXTEND THIS FOR ANOTHER YEAR I'M
NEVER JUST ASKING BECAUSE THE
SCHOOLS CAN'T SHUT DOWN THESE
BUSES AND IT IS VERY RARE RURAL
AND THEY ARE VERY VERY POOR. AND
SO MUCH OF THEIR BUDGET IS
ACTUALLY GOING TO
TRANSPORTATION.
BUT YOU KNOW UNFORTUNATELY WE'RE
NOT DEBATING LA TODAY THE LAWS
THE LAW.
NO UNDERSTAND IT YOU HAVEN'T YOU
HAVEN'T A OF AN AMENDMENT HERE
FOR SIX MONTHS CAN WE WORK WITH
THEM. A LITTLE BIT LONGER
BECAUSE I MEAN.
YOU KNOW I I HAD TO WAY THAT.
AND AND IT'S DIFFICULT DECISION
I'D LIKE TO GIVE THEM AS LONG AS
THEY CAN BUT I'M ALSO CONCERNED
ABOUT. THE SAFETY OF THE
STUDENTS SO AND SO WHAT WE DO
HERE THAT YOU'RE WELCOME.
UP TO YOU KNOW OF.
DO WHAT YOU CAN I'M SICHUAN I'M
DOING WHAT I CAN. AND AND THIS
IS THAT THE THE EXTENT THAT MY.
MY A CONSCIOUS WILL PERMIT ME TO
EXTEND THIS AS MUCH AS I CAN I
MEAN THAT RIGHT NOW THEY'RE ON
THE HOOK TO COMPLY.
MY BILL WILL GIVE THEM
ADDITIONAL SIX MONTHS DO YOU
SUPPORT GIVING HIM AN ADDITIONAL
SIX MONTHS MAYBE SUPPORT ON.
ADDITIONAL YEAR TWO OR THREE OR
FOUR BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU'RE
BEING ASKED TODAY YOU'D ASK.
WOULD YOU WOULD YOU VOTE TO GIVE
THEM AN ADDITIONAL SIX MONTHS
GIVEN THAT.
THE EXPIRATION DATE IS UPON US
IN THE NEXT TWO MONTHS.
OKAY CHAOS THE.
WHO OPPOSITION WHAT WILL HAPPEN
IF?
?
WE DON'T.
MAKE IT THE NEXT SIX MONTHS.
WHAT WHAT WHAT WHERE WERE YOU
GOING TO BE FORCED TO DO?
I WOULD REMIND PEOPLE THAT WERE
NOT ALL TRADITIONAL CALENDAR
DISTRICTS MY DISTRICT RUNS YEAR
ROUND MULTI TRACK OVERWHELMINGLY
OUR SPECIAL NEEDS KIDS GO ALL
SUMMER THEY HAVE EXTENDED YEAR.
I'LL BE QUITE FRANK WITH YOU
WILL RUN THE BUSES TO GET THOSE
KIDS TO SCHOOL ON THE VIOLATE
THIS LAW.
WAS NOT INTENDED TO NOT COMPLY
MAY SAY WE DID IT THREE YEARS
AGO PRETTY INDICATION THERE WAS
NO DEVICE TO BY THE CATHOLIC
LEFTISTS IN THE SPOT WHERE I
DON'T HAVE A WAY TO TAKE. TWO
HUNDRED TWENTY BUSES OUT OF
SERVICE TO GET THIS INSTALLED
I'M STILL TAKING KIDS EVERYDAY I
GOTTA BUY A DEVICE NOW A NEW
DEVICE AND I HAVE TO HAVE A WAY
TO INSTALL IT. HOMES THAT
HAPPENED AND IT REMIND PEOPLE WE
DON'T ALL GET OUT OF SCHOOL JUNE
FIRST
SOME OF US ARE STILL RUN
EVERYDAY. ó I HAVE TO BE ABLE
HAVE THE TIME TO MAKE THAT
HAPPEN IT'S NOT A LACK OF INTENT
TO SUPPORT THE BILL JUST NOT
REALISTIC I HAVE TICKETS TO
SCHOOL LEFT FILE FEDERAL OFFER
SPECIAL NEEDS. REGULAR ED WILL
WALK.
OKAY. THIRTY ONE HERE FROM
THOUGH.
BUT CENTER QUESTION I LIKE TO
HAVE THE.
MADAM PRESIDENT OF THEIR.
STATE COUNCIL DEVELOPMENTAL
DISABILITIES.
.
SHE CAN SPEAK ON OUT ON THE
SUBJECT TO APRIL LOPEZ.
AND THE IS THE PRESIDENT OF ON
THE CHAIR OF THE STATE COUNCIL
ON DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES.
AND.
AND DID YOU HAVE A QUESTION FOR
ME DIRECTLY.
DO I WAS ASKING ANDY OPPOSITION
ACTUALLY WHAT WAS GOING TO
HAPPEN IF THE. COULDN'T MAKE TO
SIX MONTHS TO REJECT I UPSET YOU
KNOW I WAS I WAS JUST ASKING IF
SHE HAD A RESPONSE TO YOUR
QUESTION OKAY. BUT I'M THOUGH IN
TERMS OF THEIR.
THERE'S TO SPUR SPECTRUMS HERE.
AS YOU CAN TELL.
ONE IS THE.
SCHOOL BUSINESS PEOPLE AND THE
OTHER IS THE.
PARENTS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE
DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES WHO
ARE CONCERNED ABOUT HER SAFETY.
BUT IF I CAN ADD.
I DO KNOW THAT.
WE DID SOME RESEARCH TODAY AS
WELL.
.
FROM MY UNDERSTANDING IS IF THE
BUSES ON THE RUN THAT THERE WILL
BE A FINE.
SO THAT'S WHERE.
ANOTHER SOME CONCERNS I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT THE BUSES WILL MUCH
WITH ONLINE BE.
I'M IT'S UNDER TWO HUNDRED
DOLLARS A DAY.
THAT I WOULD HAVE TO TO CHECK
BUT I DON'T BELIEVE IT'S A DAY
BUT I WILL AYE WE CONTACTED THE
CHP TO GET THE CODE AND SO IF WE
CAN FIND OUT ON THAT.
MAYBE SOMEONE ELSE CAN.
SO I WANT TO ALSO COMMENT ON
THE LIST OF THAT YOU HAVE IN
FRONT OF YOU.
.
MANY OF THE INDIVIDUALS ON THAT
LIST HAVE ALREADY OR COME.
COMING CLOSE TO OF BEEN IN
COMPLIANCE I BELIEVE VOTE SAN
JOSE IS ON THAT LIST AND THEY'VE
ALREADY SAID THERE ON COMPLIANCE
OR THEY MAY BE ONE MONTH OVER.
WE TOOK THE LIBERTY OF CALLING
SOME OF THESE DISTRICTS JUST TO
FIND OUT WHERE THEY WERE SO.
MAYBE ONE OR TWO MONTHS SHORT
AND SOME ALREADY IN COMPLIANCE
SO THE SIX MONTHS WAS A
COMPROMISE.
THAT WOULD.
BUT WE WERE SURE THAT. ARE MANY
DISTRICTS THAT HAVE NOT ALREADY
AT THAT ARE NOT ALREADY IN PLACE
WILL.
MEET THAT
DEADLINE WITH NO PROBLEM.
THANK YOU.
BUT MATT MARRIED.
IT WOULD HAVE RESPOND.
O. YOU WANT HIM TO RESPOND TO
THAT PLEASE THANK YOU ANSWER AYE

THE SPECIAL NEEDS IN THAT THERE
ARE THE ONES THAT ARE THE
CURRENT SIDES. CURBSIDE SCHOOL
BUSES THE ONES I HAVE THE TWENTY
FIFTEEN AND SIZE PASSENGER BUSES

ABLE TO MEET THIS DEADLINE BY
JULY ONCE WE'RE GOING TO CUT OFF
AT LEAST TWO TWO. MONTHS WORTH
OF A PROGRAMS FOR THE SPECIAL

AS SUCH IT'S ANOTHER ASPECT WILL
HAPPEN SO THANK YOU OTHER
QUESTIONS
AROUND ANYONE WORK COMMENT.
A SENSE OF WHAT IT IS THE
NATURE OF THE NEGOTIATION OF THE
COMMITTEE FOUND.
IT SEEMS AS THOUGH THERE'S
PRETTY SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE.

OPPOSITION IN THE SUPPORT I IN
IN ONE FELL SWOOP SIDE SO. IS
THERE IS THERE TIME TO WHAT
WHAT'S THE WHAT'S THE SCHEDULE

BOARD US SCHOOL OFFICIALS ANSWER
FOR US.
WE'RE ONLY ASKING FOR A ONE YEAR
EXTENSION IN TERMS OF MAKING
SURE THAT WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE
WITH THE LAW TO ENSURE THAT WE
ARE PROPERLY INSTALLING AND
ENSURING THAT THESE DEVICES ARE
SECURE. AND THAT ARE FOR STAFF
IS PROPERLY TRAINED HOWEVER THE
THE AMENDMENTS TO THE WAY BUT
THEY HAVE BEEN BRED INDICATE
THAT WE WOULD ONLY GET AN
EXTENSION FOR SOME. SCHOOL BUSES
AND UNFORTUNATE OUR SCHOOL BUSES
ARE NOT DIVIDED BY WHO WE SERVE
SPECIAL NEEDS AND GENERAL
INCORPORATE ALL OUR STUDENTS
ANSWER FOR US ARE CONCERNED WITH
DELAYING ONE I HAVE NOT GONE
BACK TO MY MEMBERSHIP TO. TO
DETERMINE IF THESE AMENDMENTS

ASKING FOR ONE YEAR
IMPLEMENTATION TO ENSURE THAT
WERE PROPERLY. IMPLEMENTED WE DO
WANT TO BE IN COMPLIANCE WE DO
NOT WANT TO BE IN VIOLATION WE
DO NOT WANT TO HOLD OUR PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION SERVICES THAT
ENSURE THE BEST ROUTE FOR OUR
STUDENTS.
YEAH THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE THERE'S
FOR SOME OF THE BUSES IS A SIX
MONTH EXTENSION WITH OTHERS IF
IT'S AN IMMEDIATE.
IMPLEMENTATION SO ANYWAY LOOK I
I YOU KNOW.
HE IS THE GUY I KNOW THE AUTHOR
TO BE A A GOOD GUY WHO'S WHO'S
TRYING TO FIX THESE PROBLEMS SO

TO IS STARTED OUT THAT WAY
DISTILLERS OKAY SITE I.
APPRECIATE YOU SAYING THAT A
GREAT DEAL AND I JUST.

WILL TAKE TO CONTINUE THAT
DIALOGUE DIALOGUE IN THE CAN GET
TO A PLACE WHERE WE CAN BOTH
MEET THE NEEDS. OF THE
DEVELOPMENTS ABILITIES FOLKS
WHILE ALSO MAKING SURE THAT WE
WERE NOT PASSING A LAW THAT'S
GOING TO BE ON IMPLEMENTABLE.
AND THAT WILL. FORTUNATELY WE
ALREADY DID I UNDERSTAND SO SO
BUT BUT I I AGREE BUT I I WANT
TO I MEAN I'M I APPRECIATE THE
FACT YOU STEPPED UP. INTO THAT
MORASS.
.
SO LET'S I MEAN I I I JUST WANT
TO EXPRESS MY. SHARED CONCERN
WITH THE EDUCATION COMMUNITY
WHEN IT COMES TO IMPLEMENT
ABILITY.
I APPRECIATE THE FACT WE ALWAYS
KNEW YOU KNOW I ACTUALLY KNEW
ABOUT THIS IS YOU FROM BEFORE I
KNEW OKAY VAN WAS IS TAKING CARE
OF THIS.
BOB SO.
WELL THAT SPIRIT AYE AYE AYE I
WANNA MAKE SURE WHERE WHERE DO
WE NEED TO DO TO TO MAKE MAKE
SURE THAT THIS ACTUALLY WORKS
FOR OUR SCHOOL SYSTEM
DEFINITELY.
THAT'S THE INTENT. YEAH ó OKAY
CENTER CANNELLA.
YES SO THIS IS A LITTLE
UNORTHODOX TO AMEND THE BILL AT
THE LAST MINUTE BUT THAT'S YOUR
PREROGATIVE AS THE AUTHOR OF THE
BILL. A.
WELL YOU SIX FORCED ON YOU KNOW
USUALLY VOLUNTEER TO OFFER
AMENDMENTS THAT'S OKAY.
BUT THE REALITY IS THIS IS THE
CURRENT LAW IN WITHOUT THIS
EXTENSION BY G. A JULY FIRST OF
THIS YEAR.
THEY HAVE TO THESE BUSES HAVE TO
BE MODIFIED SO.
SIX MONTHS IS BETTER THAN A YEAR
IN THE REALITY IS THERE'S OTHER
COMMITTEES THAT IT ESPECIALLY IF
THE ASSEMBLY THAT YOU CAN. WORK
WITH THIS GROUP SO I MADE THE
MOTION TO GET OUT WITH THE
AMENDMENTS AND THEN YOU GUYS
CONTINUE TO WORK ON THIS AND THE
REASON FOR THAT IS THIS IS A
GOTTEN AMEND BILL WITH THIS WAS
ANOTHER BILL THAT WORKING ON WE
WE.
GUNMEN ANOTHER BILL WANT TO
TAKE THIS ON AND WE.
I IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THAT
WE'VE BEEN MEETING WITH ALL THE
VARIOUS STAKEHOLDERS TO MAKE
SURE THAT WE. HOPE WE UNDERSTAND
THE EFFECTS OF THIS BILL ON BOTH
SIDES SIDE SO. WE WANT THIS A TO
BE A BILL THAT. YOU KNOW HELPS A
DISTRICTS BUT ALSO.
A BILL THE CONTINUES TO ENSURE
THE SAFETY OF THE PASSENGERS AS
WELL.
OKAY SO THE CENTER OF ROTH
PLEASE.
THEY MISTER CHAIR. YOU KNOW I
AVE THE HIGHEST RESPECT FOR THE
AUTHOR INTENDED.
SUPPORT HIS EFFORTS HERE.
BUT WITH CHAIRS RUSSIA AS WELL
AS COULD CLARIFYING QUESTION I
UNDERSTAND THE SPECIAL NEEDS
SITUATION WHERE.
SOMETIMES YOU HAVE SPECIAL BUSES
AND SOMETIMES YOU DON'T.
BUT FOR THOSE DISTRICTS THAT ARE
RUNNING YEAR ROUND OPERATIONS
WITH BUSES.
WHATHAPPENED ARE YOU GOING TO
BE ABLE TO FULLY IMPLEMENT THIS
BILL BY JANUARY TWENTY NINETEEN?
FORGET FOR THE MOMENT THE
SPECIAL NEEDS ISSUE IF YOU
DIDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH THAT
JUST FOR ALL OUR BUSES TOGETHER.
.
I'M IN A HOPEFULLY. THE
EQUIPMENT THAT WE PUT IN IT DOES
NOT MEET THE NEW STANDARDS OUT
QUITE HONESTLY I THINK AGREEMENT
IS A HIGHER STANDARD BECAUSE IT
IS LIVE GPS.
WHAT THE DIFFERENCES WE ALL ONE
AN ALARM TO GO OFF WHEN YOU GET
THE BUS BACK TO THE ARTS WE
DON'T LEAVE ANYBODY IN THERE
WITH OUR GPS WE CAN CUSOMIZE AT
EACH SCHOOL IT CAN GO OFF?
BUT NOT OUT ON THE ROAD SO IF
I'M OUT OF HERE FAMILIAR SAY
WILTON AND I'VE GOT TO DO A
CROSSOVER LEGALLY THE DRIVER
HAS-TO TURN THE BUS OFF
CERTAINLY
TAKE THE KEYS BECAUSE A LITTLE
DARLINGS. OR ON THE BUS AND THEN
THEY WOULD HAVE TO GO BACK WHILE
TRAFFIC STOPPED THEY'VE GOT TO
GO BACK AND WALK THROUGH ALL THE
KIDS ANA. I ADD A LARGE FORTY
FOOT SCHOOL BUS HIT THAT BUTTON
COME BACK THROUGH THE KIDS AND
HOPE NOBODY TRIED TO JET OUT THE
DOOR DURING THAT TIME WHEN
YOU'RE IN THE BACK OF THE BUS.
THEN GET OUT PHYSICALLY CROSS
THEM WITH THE STRIDE THAT'S
WHERE WE'RE HAVING SOME REAL
CONCERNS WITH OUR WITH OUR BIG
BUSES WE DON'T WANT THAT BUT
THAT BUTTON TO HAPPEN ONE ROUTE
DRIVING ON THOSE CROSSES BUT
THAT'S A LARGER ISSUE HAVING
YEAH THE ARCHITECTURE OF THE
PAIN. AND THAT'S THAT'S THAT'S
THE SOFTWARE PART THEY WERE
TRYING TO WORK OUT SO WE CANNOT
HOLD UP TRAFFIC AND BECAUSE I'M
WORRIED ABOUT CAUSE AND.
IT'S QUITE FRANKLY WHEN OR HANG
OUT THERE SO THAT'S THE SOFTWARE
WE'VE BEEN TRYING TO RESOLVE WE
CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE DONE THIS
IF THE SOFTWARE WAS THERE JUST
WASN'T THERE THERE WAS NOTHING
TO BUY SO. AS OF RIGHT NOW MY
YEAR ROUND KIDS. ALL OF THEM AND
WHICH WE HAVE A SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNT THE BIG BUSES YOU KNOW
SOMEONE INTO ITS
FIFTEEN MILES DOWN JACKSON
HIGHWAY TO THEIR SCHOOL FROM
THEIR HOME. I DON'T HAVE A WAY
TO GET IN THERE IF I CAN'T RUN
THESE BUSES AND WE JUST CAN'T
MAKE IT IN TIME WILL DO THIS.
JUST GIVE US TIME TO DO IT RIGHT
THERE WASN'T ANYTHING TO BUY
YEAH I'M GOING TO SUPPORT THE
BILL I JUST I'M STILL NOT CLEAR
EXACTLY IF AT THE END OF SIX
MONTHS.
WHETHER ANY DISTRICT CAN COMPLY
WITH THIS BASIC BILL AND OR OR
WHETHER SHE IS ONE DISTRICT YOUR
DISTRICT OR A HUNDRED AND FIFTY
OF THEM. AGAIN THEM AS CHAIR I'M
GONNA SUPPORT THE BILL BUT THINK
THAT.
SOME CLARITY ON THAT POINT MIGHT
BE HELPFUL BEFORE THIS THING
GETS TO THE FLOOR I THINK A YEAR
IT THEY HONESTLY THE REASON WHY
YEAR AS WE GOTTA GO TO BED WE
GOT A BY WE COULDN'T START
BEFORE BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING
TO BUY ANYTHING NOW THERE IS. WE
NEED A YEAR TO BUY IT AND GET A
MALL INSTALLED. BETTER SIR YOU
MAY CLOSE.
THANK YOU HAVE A MOTION ON THE
FLOOR FOR FOR WITH THOSE AND I
JUST SIMPLY.
APPRECIATE.
THE COMMITTEES.
SUPPORT ON THIS BILL.
.
I I I THINK.
.
WITH THE INFORMATION THAT WE
HAVE A MEAN IF IF A DISTRICT IS
ELECTING TO PUT.
BUT A MORE COMPLEX.
SYSTEM IT IN ASSOCIATION WITH
THIS.
THAT MIGHT NOT BE PRUDENT AT
THIS POINT OF TIME I I WOULD
ENCOURAGE DISTRICTS JUST SO WORK
TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW I THINK.
OF THAT WOULD BE IN EVERYBODY'S
BEST INTEREST IN THE INTERIM
THEN WORK TO RESOLVE THAT.
LATER WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE
ANOTHER DEADLINE IMPOSED.
I'M I'M JUST TRYING TO HELP THE
DISTRICTS HERE WITH THIS BILL.
MANDA AND DIGITAL SIX MONTHS I
THINK WOULD.
WHAT WOULD IT WOULD SATISFY
WE'RE TRYING TO ACHIEVE?
UNLESS I HEAR SOMETHING THAT'S A
TRULY COMPELLING IN THAT AREA.
BUT SO FAR I'M VERY VERY
CONFIDENT THAT A SIX MONTHS
WOULD.
WOULD IT WOULD.
.
BE ENORMOUS ASSISTANCE
TO THE DISTRICTS AND STILL KEEP
KEEP THE PROGRAM HAS AS AN AS AN
IMPORTANT.
PART OF THE SAFETY FOR THE.
TRANSPORT OF THESE ARE.
STUDENTS IN OUR STATE SO I ASK

RESPECT TO. TO THE COMMITTEE IN
THE COMMAND ALICE'S I I IG I
DON'T AGREE WITH THE REMOVAL OF

TO THE LEADERSHIP OF THE
COMMITTEE WAS SEVEN
DISAGREEMENT.
THEIR.
I THINK BUSES SHOULD BE
INCLUDED I THINK BUSES ARE. A.
CRITICAL FOREIGN PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION FOR A SIGNIFICANT
MAJORITY. OF CALIFORNIANS.
I'M LUCKY I HAPPEN TO LIVE IN
SAN FRANCISCO ONE BLOCK FROM A
SUBWAY STOP BEST MAJORITY
CALIFORNIANS I DON'T LIVE WITHIN
ONE BLOCK OF A SUBWAY STOP.
BUSES ARE.
CRITICAL I DON'T THINK THERE
DISPOSABLE I DON'T IN A CERTAIN
MOVE AROUND* NILLY.
I KNOW IMPLY PREACHING REQUIRE
BECAUSE IT WAS IN YOUR ORIGINAL
BILL.
I WOULD PERSONALLY LIKE TO SEE
BUSES STAY IN THIS BILL I'M
GONNA VOTE FOR EITHER WAY.
BUT I JUST WANTED TO PUT THAT
OUT THERE I'M I'M WORRIED THAT
WE ARE. SETTING A PRECEDENT THE
BUSES SOMEHOW DON'T FULLY COUNT
AS PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION BECAUSE
THERE.
SO IT'S EASY TO CHANGE WHICH ARE
ACTUALLY NOT VERY EASY TO
CHANGE.
I MOST BUS LINES ARE
