THANK YOU VERY MUCH
DISTINGUISHED CHAIR. IT IS.
MY GREAT PLEASURE TO BE HERE

THREE DIFFERENT ITEMS WEARING
DIFFERENT HATS THE FIRST AYE
THEM ISSUE. UNDER AYE SHE WON A
IS THERE A QUESTION THE JEWISH
CAUCUS WHICH AND THE VICE CHAIR.
AND THE CAUCUS IS REQUESTING
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE
CALIFORNIA OFFICE OF EMERGENCY
SERVICES FOR THE STATE.
NONPROFIT SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM.
SO NON PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS THAT
ARE TARGETS OF HEAT MOTIVATED
VIOLENCE MAY APPLY TO THE
PROGRAM. APPLICANTS MUST UNDERGO
A THREAT ASSESSMENT THAT
EVALUATES SECURITY WEAKNESSES AT
THEIR FACILITIES IN GRANTS ARE
THEN USED.
TO MITIGATE THESE WEAKNESSES.
SO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FUNDED
FOUR POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS
IN NONPROFIT SECURITY GRANTED
TWENTY SEVENTEEN. IN OUR TWENTY
SEVENTEEN EIGHTEEN STATE BUDGET
WE AUGMENTED THE FEDERAL PROGRAM
WITH AN ADDITIONAL TWO MILLION
DOLLARS.
AND THESE DOLLARS CAN BE USED
ANYWHERE IN THE STATE WHERE THE
FEDERAL FUNDS ARE RESTRICTED
URBAN AREAS THAT ARE. DESIGNATED
BY THE PARLIAMENT SECURITY TO BE.
I RISK OF TERRORISM.
THE ISSUE OF COURSE WAS THAT THE
TWENTY SEVENTEEN FEDERAL AND
STATE AND YOU NONPROFIT SECURE
GRANT PROGRAMS WERE OVER
SUBSCRIBED TO THE FEDERAL.
GRANTS ONLY A FIFTY EIGHT OUT OF
HER FORTY TWO ORGANIZATIONS THAT
APPLIED RECEIVE GRANTS AT THE
STATE LEVEL TWENTY EIGHT OUT OF
HUNDRED SIX.
APPLICATIONS RECEIVED STATE

AYE THERE CERTAINLY.
A NUMBER OF A NUMBER OF TO ME
INSTITUTIONS BOTH IN THE JEWISH

SUCH AS SCHOOLS COMMUNITY CENTER
SYNAGOGUES THAT ARE HIGH RISK OF
ATTACK FROM EXTREMIST GROUPS AND.
ARE WE SAW AN INCREASE OF ANTI
SEMITIC INCIDENTS IN THE LAST

COMMUNITY SEEKS OUT ASIAN
AMERICANS IMMIGRANTS INDIVIDUAL

I WORDS CONCERNED ABOUT THE
SIGNIFICANT UPTICK IN THE NUMBER
OF HATE GROUPS WHITE SUPREMACIST
* GROUPS ANTI MUSLIM GROUPS
AT IMMIGRANT GROUPS.
WHICH REALLY DO POSE A VERY REAL
THREAT TO THE TARGETS OF THEIR
HATRED IN THIS IS BEEN
DOCUMENTED BY THE ANTI
DEFAMATION LEAGUE AND OTHERS.
I WHO HAVE SHOWN UP TECH AND AND
AND IN HATE GROUPS UNFORTUNATELY.
SO WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOME
FUNDING THAT WILL ALLOW.
NONPROFITS TO TARGET HARDENING
AND OTHER PHYSICAL SECURITY
ENHANCEMENTS REINFORCING DOORS
AND GATES HIGH INTENSITY
LIGHTING SYSTEMS ALARMS.
SECURITY TRAINING THAT HELPS TO
PREVENT MITIGATE RESPOND ACCESS

GRATEFUL TECH HAVE BEEN ASKED TO
DO THIS IT MEANS A LOT TO ME.
I AM A NATIVE OF RIVERSIDE.
I'VE PUBLISHED TEN BOOKS AT ALL
ALL AROUND SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA
AND THE NATION AYE SPOKEN ABOUT
OUR STATE. AND OUR HISTORY
AROUND THE WORLD BUT TODAY I
WANT TO SAY THAT THE PROUDEST
MOMENTS IN MY WRITING LIFE. HAVE
ACTUALLY COME THROUGH GRANTS
FROM CALIFORNIAN ENTITIES.
IN TWENTY TWELVE THE
PHOTOGRAPHER DOUGLAS MCCULLEN I
PRODUCED FISH A MUSEUM SHOW.
CALLED MORE DREAMERS OF THE
GOLDEN DREAM AFTER THE FAMOUS
ARTICLE.
BY JOAN DIDION THIS SHOW
FEATURED AFRICAN AMERICAN IN
NEXT MERRICK MEXICAN AMERICAN
LIFE IN THE INLAND EMPIRE FROM
EIGHTEEN EIGHTY TO NOW.
WE DID STORIES AND PHOTOS OF
RIVERSIDE FIRST BLACK RESIDENTS
INCLUDING MANY MILITARY MEN WHO
MIGRATED TO THE AREA AND ALSO
PEOPLE LIKE TONY AND SARAH LOPEZ
WHO WERE MARRIED IN OUR LADY OF
GUADALUPE CHURCH SEVENTY FIVE
YEARS AGO AND STILL ATTEND.
WE DID SIX FOOT BLACK AND WHITE
BANNERS.
AND I DID.
ESSAYS THAT ACCOMPANIED THEM.
FOR THE OPENING OF THE SHOW
THEIR SIDE ART MUSEUM MORE THAN
EIGHT HUNDRED PEOPLE CAME.
PEOPLE CRIED.
THEY CAME UP AND HUGGED ME AND
TOLD ME THEY HAD NEVER BEEN A
MUSEUM IN THEIR LIVES BECAUSE
THEY THOUGHT THEY DIDN'T BELONG
THERE. AND THEY WERE ALLOWED TO
GO THERE AND THEY WOULDN'T BE
WELCOME THERE.
THIS WAS A LIFE CHANGING EVENT
FOR A LOT OF PEOPLE.
OUR NEXT SHOW WAS ALSO FUNDED BY
CALL FOR HUMANITIES AND WAS EVEN
BIGGER IT WAS CALLED WIDE BLUE
YONDER. AND IT WAS A HISTORY OF
THE MILITARY IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA WE FEATURED VETERANS
FROM WORSE INCLUDING WORLD WAR
TWO THE KOREAN WAR THE VIETNAM
WAR. AND ALL OF THE CURRENT
CONFLICTS IN THE GULF.
I INTERVIEWED HUNDREDS OF MEN
AND WOMEN INCLUDING MEN WOUNDED
IN AFGHANISTAN. MILITARY WIDOWS
AT AIRFORCE VILLAGE WEST.
I WE WENT UP IN THE KC ONE
THIRTY SIX TRANSPORT PLANE.
WE DID STORIES ON VIETNAMESE
BORN WOMEN WHO RUN NAIL SALONS.
AGAIN HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF
PEOPLE SAW THAT SHOW AND BROUGHT
THEIR FAMILIES AS HIS STORIES
AND PHOTOS.
BUT WHAT MEANT THE MOST TO ME
AND THIS WAS FROM A FIVE
THOUSAND DOLLAR GRANT.
IN CALIFORNIA AMENITIES.
IS THAT I GOT TO WATCH THEM
SHARE MEMORIES AND TEACH THEIR
CHILDREN AND GRAND CHILDREN
ABOUT HOW THEY HAD NEVER GOTTEN
OVER. SOME THAT HAPPEN TO THEM
IN THE KOREAN WAR CRADLED WERE
TO.
HUNDREDS OF SCHOOL VISITORS ALSO
CAME AND INTERVIEWED THE
VETERANS SO THOSE STORIES ABOUT
ENDURING LOVE AND CONFLICT WERE
ASTONISHING.
I'M THE PROUDEST CALIFORNIA CAN
IMAGINE.
FOR TWENTY YEARS I'VE TRAVELED
THE ENTIRE STATE TO BRING BOOKS
AND STORIES EVERY KIND OF
COMMUNITY.
AND THROUGH CALIFORNIA
HUMANITIES FUNDING FOR FIFTEEN
YEARS.
I'VE SPOKEN IN GREENFIELD TO
FAMILIES WHO WORK THE LETTUCE
FIELDS.
I'VE BEEN ABLE TO READ CHAPTERS
IN MY NOVEL ABOUT MIGRANT
WORKERS IN SPANISH AND IN
ENGLISH.
AND WOMEN CRIED IN FRONT OF ME
TO HEAR ACTUAL VOICES LIKE THEIR
OWN THAT THEY'D NEVER THOUGHT
WERE RECORDED IN A BOOK.
I JOIN IN THE HUNDREDS OF BOOKS
THERE AS WELL AS IN PUBLIC
LIBRARIES IN HIGH SCHOOLS FROM
SABATINO TO ANTELOPE VALLEY. TO
ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES MECCA
IN THE COACHELLA VALLEY.
PER CAPITA INCOME IN MECCA THE
SEVEN THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS.
I SIGNED BOOKS FOR ENTIRE
FAMILIES
AND THEIR CHILDREN TOLD ME THOSE
WERE THE FIRST BOOK THEY HAD
EVER OWNED IN THEIR LIVES.
MY NOSE PROJECT HAS BEEN TO WORK
WITH EZRI THE GLOBAL MAPPING
COMPANY IN BASIN REDLANDS TO
CREATE STORY MAPS.
I WRITE THE ESSAYS IN A%
INTERVIEW PEOPLE AND THEN I TAKE
MY PHOTOGRAPHER DOUGLAS
MCCULLOUGH WE USE GIS LOCATIONS
TO MAKE DETAILED MAPS. AND MOST
RECENTLY I DID A MAP OF THE
VALUE OF COACHELLA WHICH WAS
FEATURED IN THE ATLANTIC AND THE
LA TIMES.
NOT THE FAMOUS FESTIVAL BUT THE
PLACE FOR ACTUAL CALIFORNIANS
LIVE YEAR ROUND. BROWN DATE
GARDEN RUN BY AN EIGHTY SIX YEAR
OLD WOMAN NAMED BIG DONNA FISH.
APPLE MARKET OWNED BY DAVID
SANCHEZ SECOND GENERATION NATIVE
TO PEOPLE LIVING IN TRAILER
HOMES WORKING BE. AND WINNER
CARE CROPS
THIS MAP WENT ALL OVER THE WORLD.
AND PEOPLE LEARNED ABOUT OUR
STATES LANDSCAPING HISTORY BUT
ALSO THIS NEW. THROUGH G. I. S.
MAPPING TECHNOLOGY ALLOWS US TO
HAVE THE MOST WONDERFUL
INFLUENCE OF STORY NARRATIVE
PHOTOGRAPHY AS WELL AS
ENGINEERING AND SOFTWARE. SO
IT'S A NEW THING.
I'D LIKE CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS TO
SEE MORE SHOWS LIKE WHITE TO
LAUNDER WIDELY YONDER BECAUSE WE
CELEBRATED RIVERSIDE NATIONAL
CEMETERY.
NO NO IT'S THE BUSIEST MILITARY
CEMETERY IN AMERICA.
WE INTRODUCED IN NOT CHAU NAIL
SALON WORKERS.
TO MEN WHO HAD FOUGHT IN SAIGON
MANAGE ACCOUNTS.
WHAT I LOVE MOST ABOUT CALL FOR
HUMANITIES IS HOW THEY FUND THE
ENTIRE STATE?
CITIES FROM FRESNO TO OXNARD
FROM SHASTA COUNTY TO IMPERIAL
COUNTY AND EVEN MODEST FUNDING.
REQUESTED MEANS COUNTLESS MORE
STORIES TOLD AND CALIFORNIANS
FROM ELDERLY VETERANS TO
KINDERGARTNERS
IN SHARE STORIES.
AND I'M GONNA SAY THAT MY HOPE
THREE DAUGHTERS WENT TO PUBLIC
SCHOOLS.
LIKE I DID.
I'M THE CHILD OF IMMIGRANTS.
I RAISED THEM IN MUSEUMS AND NOW
IT'S JUST THAT THIS IS PARTLY
BECAUSE OF THE AIR CONDITIONING
BECAUSE OUR HOUSE DIDN'T HAVE
AIR CONDITIONING.
MY OLDER DAUGHTERS BOTH WORK IN
MUSEUMS AND MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER
JUST GOT HIRED FOR DISNEY.
CASTING SHOWS FOR TELEVISION.
I AM PROUD OF BEEN ABLE TO RAISE
THEM AND TAKE THEM TO THE SAME
EXACT LIBRARIES MUSEUMS Y. WENT
AS A CHILD.
AND I WANT TO SAY THAT
CALIFORNIA HUMANITIES IN AWAY
THEN. MADE OUR FAMILY WHO WE ARE
AND ALLOWS ME TO REACH.
LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE.

ANYONE ELSE PUBLIC COMMENT.
WELL WILL GO TO WORK ON THANK

SAFE TRAVEL CENTER THANK YOU FOR

NEXT ITEM IF YOU ONE.
DE.
OPEN SOURCE VOTING SYSTEM.
APPARENTLY.
WELL SO THIS I WILL SAY.
I'VE I HAD TWO DIFFERENT
OUTSIDE WENT SO ONE LIST VICE
CHAIR OF THE JEWS CARGAS THE
SECOND WAS CHAIR OF THE ARTS.
THIS.
HOT INVOLVES MY FRIENDSHIP.
WITH CENTER WIENER.
HOW WHO ENFORCE WE COULD NOT
PRESENT THIS TODAY BUT THIS IS
CENTER WIENERS BUDGET REQUESTS
CENTER WIENER AND SO AND WHAT
YOU?
I AND SO THEY OWE YOU A COURTESY
TO THEM I'M I'M VERY HAPPY. THAT
I'M VERY SUPPORTIVE OF THIS
REQUEST A FOR REASONS THAT WILL
BECOME CLEAR AS I AS I DESCRIBE
IT SO. I DO PROCEDURE
FORBEARANCE AND I KNOW THAT'S IN
A WIENER PURCHASE A GREAT DEAL
AS WELL.
SO CENTERS WIENERS IT RETURNS ON
WHICH YOU ARE REQUESTING A
MILLION DOLLARS DO. AYE IN
MATCHING FUNDS.
FOR COUNTIES TO DEVELOP AND
CERTIFY. PUBLICLY OWNED OPEN
SOURCE PAPER BALLOT VOTING
SYSTEM.
SO AS AS WE KNOW THERE IS A
CRISIS OF CONFIDENCE IN THE
SECURITY AND ACCURACY OF OUR
ELECTIONS RECENT REVELATIONS
THAT IN. TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN
RUSSIANS TARGETING.
TARGETED FOR HACKING ELECTION
SYSTEMS IN TWENTY ONE STATES
UNDERSCORE.
THE THREAT.
I DON'T THINK ANYBODY THINKS
THAT THEY OR OTHER BAD ACTORS
ARE DIE AND TRYING TO HACK OUR
ELECTIONS.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY.
CURRENT PROPRIETARY SYSTEMS
THAT WE HAVE.
WE HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE
LEVELS OF SECURITY.
AT A RECENT SECURITY COVERS THE
TACIT PROVIDES VOTING SYSTEMS
EVERY PIECE OF EQUIPMENT WAS
EFFECTIVELY BREACH IN SOME
MANNER I WAS A.
HACKATHON I THINK.
OPEN SOURCE PAPER BALLOT VOTING
SYSTEMS WILL PROVIDE COUNTIES
WITH THE MORE TRANSPARENT SECURE
AND FAIR. VOTING PROCESS WHILE
REDUCING COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH.
REPLACEMENT AND MAINTENANCE
THE GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED BUDGET
INCLUDES HER THIRTY FOUR POINT
THREE MILLION DOLLARS IN CHEN
OFFENSE REPLACE AGING VOTING
SYSTEMS.
THIS FUNDING IS CRITICAL FOR THE
NECESSARY REPLACEMENT OF
HARDWARE SOFTWARE.
INITIAL LICENSING FOR VOTING
SYSTEMS AND TECHNOLOGIES IN ALL
FIFTY EIGHT COUNTIES HOWEVER IT
ONLY COVERS A PORTION OF THE
FUNDS NEEDED TO REPLACE.
CALIFORNIA'S VOTING EQUIPMENT.
ADDITIONAL FUNDING WOULD ALLOW
THE SECTOR STEVE'S OFFICE TO
ADMINISTER MATCHING PROGRAM. IN
WHICH NTERESTED COUNTIES WOULD
RECEIVE RESOURCES NEEDED TO
DEVELOP CERTIFY AND IMPLEMENT
OPEN SOURCE VOTING SYSTEMS.
STATE FUNDING TO THIS PROJECT
WOULD PROVIDE BENEFITS
THROUGHOUT THE CITY CALIFORNIA.
ON THE SYSTEMS WOULD BE
DEVELOPED IN OUR GENERAL PUBLIC
LICENSES TO ENSURE THAT THERE
FREELY AVAILABLE TO ANY COUNTY
TO USE AND MODIFY BASED UPON.
THEIR INDIVIDUAL NEEDS.
OBVIOUSLY MILLION DOLLAR BUDGET
INVESTMENT WOULD SAY CALIFORNIA
AND ITS COUNTIES TENS OF
MILLIONS OF DOLLARS AFTER
THEY'VE BEEN CERTIFIED BECAUSE
EVERY COUNTY WOULD THEN BE ABLE
TO USE AND BUILD UPON THEM FOR
FOR ITS OPEN SOURCE THINK EVENT.
THEY COULD THEN.
THEY ADOPT WHAT IF WHAT IS
ALREADY BEEN ADOPTED BY THE
COUNTIES
AND JUST AS IMPORTANTLY THIS IS
ALSO ABOUT BUILDING TRUST.
WILL MONKS ARE VOTERS A KEY WAY
TO DO THIS IS THROUGH FULL
TRANSPARENCY WHICH MEANS OPEN
SOURCE VOTING SYSTEMS.
USING PAPER BALLOTS AND I HAVE
TRAVELING WITH ME HERE IS
PRESENT COMPANY CLEAN MONEY
CAMPAIGN HE'S WORKING VERY
CLOSELY WITH CENTER WIENER IN.
A SENATOR CHU ON THIS BUDGET
PROPOSAL.
AT A YOUR MORNING A COMEDIAN
THANK YOU PERSON AROUND VERY
MUCH FOR FOR MAKING THIS
PRESENTATION IN YOUR SUPPORT.
THAT.
THE COMPANY MONEY CAMPAIGN
NORMALLY WORKS ON THE ISSUES OF
CAMPAIGN FINANCE REFORM
RESPONSES THE CALIFORNIA
DISCLOSE ACT LAST YEAR WHICH HAD
TREMENDOUS SUPPORT AND SUPPORT
ACT OF ALL THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS
APPEAR I'M VERY HAPPY TO SAY.
I'M BUT ARE HUNDRED FIFTY
THOUSAND SUPPORTERS HAVE GROWN
INCREASINGLY CONCERNED ABOUT THE
SECURITY AND SAFETY IN
TRANSPARENCY OF THE ACTUAL VOTE
COUNTING.
FOR ALL THE REASONS THAT WE'RE
ALL WELL AWARE OF.
.
AND.
WE BELIEVE THAT OPEN SOURCE
PAPER BALLOT VOTING IS THE WAY
TO GO SECRETARY STATE UP INDIA.
RECENTLY A COUPLE YEARS AGO
SAID THAT OPEN SOURCE IS THE
ULTIMATE IN TRANSPARENCY AND
ACCOUNTABILITY TO ALL.
WHICH WE ABSOLUTELY AGREE WITH
UP TO PUT THIS LIMON CONTEXTS OF
THE.
NATIONAL SECURITY THREAT THAT
THAT TIME I CONFERENCE DESCRIBED
A FORMER CIA DIRECTOR JAMES
WOOLSEY.
RECENTLY SAID.
THAT A IN AND IN OP ED THAT IF
WE ARE TO PROPERLY DEFEND
AGAINST OUTSIDE AND POSSIBLY
INSIDE INTERFERENCE
OR HACKING.
THE SOFTWARE CANNOT REMAIN
PRIVATE
AND SECRET.
FOR NATIONAL SECURITY.
A THE ELECTION SYSTEMS HARPER
MUST BE WHAT IS USED BY NASA.
THE AIR FORCE IN THE DEPARTMENT
OF DEFENSE.
AND IT MUST BE OPEN SOURCE.
SO WE BELIEVE THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT THE TIME HAS COME. IT'S NOT
THAT AT THAT EIGHT MILLION
DOLLAR AD BUDGET REQUEST WOULD
ALLOW COUNTIES TO DEVELOP THAT
WE KNOW FOR SURE.
SAN FRANCISCO AND LOS ANGELES
ARE BOTH WORKING ON SYSTEMS WE
KNOW FOR SURE SAN FRANCISCO IS
IS INTERESTED IN THIS AND THEY
ARE A. A SUPPORTIVE I'M A A POLL
THAT WE'VE.
DID OF SEVEN SEVEN TO LIKELY
VOTERS SHOWED THAT SIXTY SIX
PERCENT OF LIKELY VOTERS I
THOUGHT THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA.
FAVORED THE STATE GOVERNMENT'S
FUNDING DEVELOPMENT OF OPEN
SOURCE PICKED BELT VOTING
SYSTEMS
I'M AND WITH THAT I'LL I'LL I'LL
REST IN A LOT OF THAT. WE HAVE
TO THE PUBLIC MEMBERS IN SUPPORT
HERE AS WELL OKAY.
QUESTIONS COLLEAGUES AND.
SIGNATURE.
YOU KNOW WE'RE TRYING TO LIMIT
THE DISCUSSION THIS SECTION OF
OUR OUR PROGRAM BUT.
AT LEAST THE CHAIR AND THEN MY
COLLEAGUE KNOWS THAT AYE I'VE
RAISED A LOT OF QUESTIONS ABOUT
THE. GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL TO PUT
A HUNDRED THIRTY FOUR MILLION
DOLLARS INTO VOTING MACHINE.
NOT BECAUSE I DON'T CARE ABOUT
THE SECURITY. AND THE OF MODERN.
TECHNOLOGY THAT WE NEED TO
CONDUCT ELECTIONS BECAUSE THAT'S
NOT THAT AT ALL. BUT THAT IT
SEEMS THAT YOU KNOW. IT
TECHNOLOGY IS MOVING QUICKLY.
AND AND.
I WORRIED ABOUT SPENDING A LOT
OF MONEY WHEN I THINK AS I LOOK
AT MY CRYSTAL BALL AND I'M
INTERESTED TO HEAR YOUR CRYSTAL
BALL TO.
UP ABOVE WHETHER IT'S IN TEN
YEARS OR FIFTEEN YEARS THAT IT
AS WE TRY TO PROMOTE MORE.
PARTICIPATION IN OUR ELECTIONS
THAT YOU KNOW ARE DEVICES.
WITH SIGNATURES APPROPRIATE
SIGNATURES
MAYBE EXACTLY HOW WE DO IT AS
CONVENIENT AS JUST SITTING HERE
AT OUR DESK CARRETERA LET OUR
LIVING ROOMS. AND YET WE'RE
INVESTING HUNDRED THIRTY FOUR
MILLION INDIA VOTING MACHINES
AND YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT SOME
OTHER.
IMPORTANT RIGHT RECRUITMENT SOME
REFORMS IN PAPER BALLOTS BUT
IF IT WAS IT WASN'T PAPER
BALLOTS OF WHO WAS.
IF IT WAS A CYBER BALLOTS OR
SOMETHING WHERE I THINK WE
REALLY GOING TO BE HEADING.
AMES LIKE IT WOULD DIE MAYBE BE
A MORE EFFICIENT USE NOT TO
SPEAK NEGATIVELY TO WHAT YOU'RE
PROPOSING BUT.
JUST THINK WE WE ARE GONNA GET
BETTER AT THIS I HOPE WE DO.
BECAUSE WE WANT PARTICIPATION
AND WE WANT SECURITY ANY
THOUGHTS OR WALK.
I'M I I THINK THAT THAT'S A VERY
IMPORTANT POINT THAT WE DO NEED
TO BE LOOKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE
AND OTHER WAYS FOR FOR PEOPLE TO
VOTE BUT. I THINK ONE OF THE
FUNDAMENTAL THINGS THAT WE
BELIEVE AND AND.
.
A FOLKS LIKE FORMER SECRETARY A.
UP.
OF CA. A WILL LEAD A BELIEVES
THAT IT HAVE TO BE BASED AND
OPEN SOURCE
SO IF YOU'RE TO DEVELOP A SYSTEM
THAT THAT PEOPLE VOTE BY
SMARTPHONES ARE BY OTHER OTHER
OTHER MEANS OUT WHICH ARE
DEFINITELY WORTH EXPLORING.
IT ALL SHOULD BE DONE IN A
TRANSPARENT MATTER THAT THE THE
PUBLIC AND THE AND VOTERS CAN
TRUST THEY CONSIST.
HAVE OUTSIDE EXPERTS LOOK AT THE
CODE IT'S NOT CODE IN SECRET
THAT'S WHAT THIS PROPOSAL WOULD
WOULD DO FOR OUR CURRENT VOTING
SYSTEMS.
SAVE A LOT OF MONEY BECAUSE IT'S
WHAT'S AS ON THIS LICENSE WOULD
BE FREE AND COULD ACTUALLY SERVE
AS A BASIS FOR FUTURE
EXPLANATIONS FOR THE KINDS OF
THINGS THAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT
DONE IN AN OPEN SOURCE
TRANSPARENT MANNER.
HOW DOES HE BY THE WAY WHEN IT
WHEN THIS IDEA WAS FIRST PITCH
TO ME?
YOU KNOW IT'S A VERY
COUNTERINTUITIVE TO ME THAT YOU
WOULD.
YOU WOULD YOU'D PUT ALL THIS
MATERIAL ONLINE AND EXPOSE.
POTENTIAL BREACHES AND YET IF
YOU ACTUALLY START TO WORK WITH
THE EXPERTS IN THIS AREA I THINK
THIS IS THE MOST SECURE WAY OF.
HANDLING A SITUATION LIKE THIS
BECAUSE IT.
IT ALLOWS FOR.
FOR FOR EVERYBODY TO START TO
TO TO FIND VULNERABILITIES IN
THE CODE. AYE BOTH WHITE HAT AND
BLACK CAT ACTORS.
I AND AND UP BEING A BEST
PRACTICE FROM A CYBERSECURITY
PERSPECTIVE WHICH YOU DON'T
REALLY HAVE. FORCED A PARADIGM
SHIFT IN MY OWN MIND ABOUT
WITHOUT ABOUT THESE THINGS I
DON'T DISAGREE WITH YOU I'VE
CENTER OF ABOUT THE BROADER OUT
YOU KNOW QUESTION OF THE
PROVOCATION THIS IS A. VERY
TARGETED.
ALLOCATION TO PROVIDE COUNTIES
WITH THE OPPORTUNITY TO
YOU KNOW TO.
TO SHIFT OUR TOWARD OPEN SOURCE.
IF THEY WANT YUBA EUROPE RAISING
UP A BROADER CONCERN I THINK
ABOUT THE THE GOVERNOR'S.
THE GOVERNOR'S VOTING AYE
MODERNIZATION PLAN UP IS PARTLY
THE GOVERNOR'S PLAN BUT IT'S
ALSO THAT THIS THIS LIMITED TO
PAPER BALLOTS.
PURSES OPEN SOURCE ON.
YOU KNOW.
CYBER SIGNATURES THAT ALLOW
EVERY VOTER TO HAVE A SIGNATURE
AND PARTICIPATE ELECTION A SAFE
SECURE WAY.
DON'T INCLUDE PAPER BALLOTS
BECAUSE OU ARE TRYING YOUR
LIMITING IT HERE TO PAPER
BALLOTS RIGHT I'M.
YES BECAUSE THAT'S I MEAN ALL OF
CALIFORNIA'S CURRENT VOTING
SYSTEMS USE USE PAPER BALLOTS
I'M A BUT I THINK WHEN THE KEYS
WITH AN OPEN SOURCE SYSTEM IS
THAT. ONCE IT'S DEVELOP YOU CAN
BUILD ON IT AND AND USE IF IF
PEOPLE WANT TO EXPLORE DIFFERENT
KINDS ASSISTANCE OR YOURS TIMING
COULD ACTUALLY BUILD ON THIS
CODE FOR FREE BECAUSE THIS.
PUBLICLY OWNED OPEN TO THE
PUBLIC AND SO YES THIS FIRST
ITERATION THAT A COUNTY WOULD DO
WOULD BE
FITTING IN WITH CALIFORNIA'S
CURRENT VOTING. A SYSTEM USING
PAPER BALLOTS BUT THE CDE TO BE
BUILT ON TO EXTEND ANYTHING ELSE
BECAUSE IT'S PUBLICLY OWNED.
I DON'T THINK I'D YOU KNOW I'M
I'M SURE THAT OUR OWN BE
AMENABLE TO.
LANGUAGE THAT WOULD PROVIDE
ADEQUATE FLEXIBILITY FOR THE
SORT OF.
FUTURE CHALLENGES THAT YOU'RE
TALKING ABOUT I DON'T THINK
THERE'S ANY DISAGREEMENT I'M.
I I WOULD WANT TO RUN UP BY
CENTER WIENER OBVIOUSLY AND.
BUT I I'M SURE THERE'S A WAY TO.

FLAG FOR TRAILER BILL SAID THAT
DEAL WITH THAT POLICY CHANGES.
SHOULD BE APPROPRIATELY DONE
THROUGH UP LEGISLATION I THINK
IT IS NOTEWORTHY ON THIS IN THIS
CASE. THAT A BILL DID GO THROUGH.
I DON'T AGREE WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S CONCLUSION THAT IT
SHOULD HAPPEN IN THE BUDGET
PROCESS.
THAT THAT'S REALLY WAS THE RIGHT
WAY TO DO IT.
BUT I THINK THAT IRRESPECTIVE
OF HIS VIEW I THINK THE FACT
THAT THIS HAS GONE THROUGH THAT.
THE LEGISLATIVE PROCESS IN THE
RIGHT WAY GETS ME.
HOW MUCH MORE POSITIVE FEELING
ABOUT SEEN IT HERE TODAY EACH
ONE TO MAKE THAT COMMENT NOTED?
I COMPLETELY AGREE WE AS I SAID

OUT WHAT WE NEED TO HEAR. YEAH.
ZERO STARTING WITH.
LEFT YOU'RE RIGHT MA'AM YOU'RE

CHIEF RESEARCH PROGRAM OF YOU
FOR THE VETERANS.
SIR GOOD MORNING MY NAME'S DAVE
GIRARD ASSISTANT DEPUTY
SECRETARY FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF
VETERANS AFFAIRS.
MISTER CHAIR OF KOBE PEARSON
DEBBIE SECRETARY FOR VETERANS.
THE YOU SEE THE STAFF
RECOMMENDATION ONCE AGAIN IS TO
HOLD THIS OPEN NEW.
CURRENTLY HAS TO DO WITH YOUR
MASTER PLAN.
ISSUES BUT.
.
WHERE ARE WE AT THIS POINT?
SO SIR WE HAVE A AND THE
PROPOSAL IS THAT.
NOW WE.
HAVE A SEVEN POINT ONE MILLION
DOLLAR REQUEST FOR PERFORMANCE
CRITERIA.
THE PERFORMANCE CRITERIA IN OUR
VIEW IS A COMPROMISE THAT ALLOWS
FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE PROJECT
TO MOVE FORWARD. AND.
.
ALONG THE WAY.
NUMBERS CAN BE ALIGNED WITH THE
MASTER PLAN.
ASSESSMENT.
THE PROPOSAL ALSO IS A.
.
DIFFERENCE IN DELIVERY FROM
pGENERALLY THE CASE FOR MOST
CAPITAL OUTLAY TO DESIGN BUILD
BUT THE PERFORMANCE CRITERIA AND
REQUEST FOR SEVEN POINT ONE
MILLION DOLLARS ALLOWS FOR. IN
OUR VIEW A COMPROMISE TO ALLOW
THE MASTER PLAN TO.
MATERIALIZE AS WELL AS MOVE
FORWARD WITH THE PROJECT AND
ALLOW FOR ALIGNMENT WITH THE.
PROJECTED NUMBERS THAT.
WERE WERE ALL LOOKING FOR. AND
SO THIS IS SIMPLY A REDUCTION
ESSENTIALLY REDUCTION.
IN THE IN THE AMOUNT THAT WE
HEARD BEFORE A POINT SIX TO
SEVEN POINT ONE.
US ATLAS THE CHANGE IN DELIVERY
METHOD THAT'S CHARISMA HAS GROWN
PRIMARILY THAT THE BIGGER ISSUE
IS THE DELIVERY METHOD.
THE PERFORMANCE CRITERIA SETS A
STANDARD FOR.
THE THE TYPE OF FACILITY THAT
WE WANT AND AND THE
SPECIFICATIONS THE NUMBER
WHETHER IT'S.
TWO HUNDRED FORTY BEDS WHICH IS
OUR PROPOSED AMOUNT OR IF THAT
ADJUSTMENT WAS NECESSARY CAN BE
DONE WITH PERFORMANCE CRITERIA
AS OPPOSED TO BID DESIGN BEEN
BUILT.
FINANCE INCOME.
OF THE SELLING CONTROL
DEPARTMENT FINANCE I JUST WANTED
TO CLARIFY THAT THIS REQUEST.
BEFORE YOU TODAY IS THIS SORT
OF AMENDING THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR'S
BUDGET REQUEST HAD FIFTEEN.
POINT SEVEN MILLION LEAVE.
FOR PRELIMINARY PLANS FOR THE
THIS PARTICULAR FACILITY. THIS
PROPOSAL SWITCHES THE
PROCUREMENT METHOD TO FROM
DESIGNED IS BUILT TO DESIGN AND
BUILD WHICH DOWN.
DRIVES AGO YEAH STRIPES THAT
COSTS DOWN BY ABOUT TWENTY THREE
MILLION FOR THE OVERALL PROJECT
BUT AND YOU KNOW YOU YOU ALSO
SEE SAVINGS IN THE.
SWITCH FROM PLANET PLANS TO
PERFORMANCE CRITERIA THAT'S
RIGHT.
IT'S A IT'S A IT'S A.
DECREASING THE ORIGINAL REQUEST
EIGHT POINT SIX MILLION AREN'T
WHICH GETS IT TO SEVEN POINT ONE
THAT'S BEEN CARESS OCAD WITH THE
CHANGE IN.
BELIAU.
CHECK THE REST OF THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE AS
YOUR AGENDA STRUCK THE NEW SKILLED NURSING
FACILITY PRIOR TO THE COMPLETION
OF THE MASTER PLAN BUT ON A
TECHNICAL NOTE WE WOULD. SAY
THAT IT SEEMS THAT THE CHANGE IN
DELIVERY MODEL SEEMS TO BE A
MORE APPROPRIATE APPROACH.
PRIMARILY BECAUSE THE MORE
RECENT VETERAN HOMES THAT WERE
CONSTRUCTED IT'S OUR
UNDERSTANDING REDUNDANT OR
SOMEWHERE MODEL SO THERE ARE
PRACTICES THAT COULD BE
IMPLEMENTED PERFECT.
COLLEAGUES ANY QUESTIONS.
SING NON PUBLIC COMMENT ON THIS
ONE.
OKAY PERFECT WELL WILL TAKE IT.

GOOD MORNING MISTER CHAIRMAN I
GUESS IT'S STILL MORNING TILL
MORNING WELL. AFTERNOON BUT
WHATEVER IT IS GOOD WHATEVER. I
THINK.
STRAIGHT OUT OF PRETTY GOOD
AFTERNOON MEMBERS.
MY NAME IS MIRIAM BARCELONA AND
YOU NEED ALLEN I AM THE DIRECTOR
OF FISCAL. AND THANK YOU VERY%
MUCH FOR PROVIDING US THIS
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT TO YOU
OUR UPDATE.
IT IS THE LARGEST.
IT PROJECT THAT THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA HAS UNDERTAKEN BUT
EVEN MORE THAN NOT IT IS THE
LARGEST BUSINESS TRANSFORMATION
PROJECT THAT THE STATE HAS EVER.
UNDERGONE IT IMPACTS A HUNDRED
AND FIFTY PLUS DEPARTMENTS ARE
FOR CONTROL AGENCIES THE PUBLIC
AND THE LEGISLATURE THROUGH THE
DIFFERENT PHASES OF WHAT WE ARE
DOING.
.
THE DISCOUNT SYSTEM JUST THE
HIGH LEVEL AT OVERVIEW IS IT
IT'S AGAINST REPLACING
ACCOUNTING BUDGETING CASH
MANAGEMENT. PROCUREMENT AND
BANKING FOR THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA.
.
AND AGAIN THIS IS DEALING WITH
BOTH THE TECHNICAL CHALLENGES AS
WELL AS THE.
AND THE PROCESSES PROCEDURES AND
CHANGE MANAGEMENT COMPONENTS OF
A WHINING FORD DISPARATE ODD
CONTROL AGENCY SYSTEMS INTO ONE.
WHEN IT IS COMPLETED MORE THAN A
HUNDRED AND FIFTY DEPARTMENTS
AND OVER TWENTY THOUSAND STATE
EMPLOYEES WILL BE UTILIZING THE
SYSTEM.
SO TODAY WE HAVE EIGHTY EIGHT
DEPARTMENTS UTILIZING THE SYSTEM
FOR ACCOUNTING FOR THEIR
DEPARTMENTAL ACCOUNTING.
WE HAVE AS OF JULY TWENTY
SIXTEEN THE DEPARTMENT OF
COUNTING THE PROCUREMENT AND THE
BUDGET FUNCTIONALITY HAVE BEEN
COMPLETE SO ALL OF THE STATE
ENTITIES.
ARE UTILIZING THAT COMPONENT OF
THE SYSTEM.
THE WE'VE GOT APPROXIMATELY
TWELVE THOUSAND STATE EMPLOYEES
UTILIZING THE SYSTEM TO DATE.
WHICH
IF MY MATH IS RIGHT THAT'S ONLY
LIKE EIGHT THOUSAND MORE THAT WE
THINK THAT WAS WHAT WE INITIALLY
PLANNED I WAS I'M A LITTLE OVER
NOW AS TO HOW MANY PEOPLE WE
THOUGHT WOULD BE UTILIZING THE
SYSTEM. SO WILL PROBABLY EXCEED
THE TWENTY THOUSAND ON WHEN
EVERYTHING IS IMPLEMENTED.
FOR THE PAST THREE YEARS THE
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET HAS BEEN
PRODUCED UTILIZING THE
INFORMATION IN YPERION AND THAT
THE BUDGET SYSTEM. THAT WE HAVE
IMPLEMENTED AS PART OF THIS GAL.
AND FOR THE SINS TWENTY SIXTEEN
WE HAVE PRODUCED WE.
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE HAS UP
PRODUCED THE ENACTED BUDGET WITH
THE SAME LEVEL OF DETAIL. AS THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSED BUDGET SO.
YEAH AND THAT IS A TREMENDOUS
AMOUNT OF TRANSPARENCY FOR THE
PUBLIC AS WELL AS FOR ALL OF AND
THE MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATURE.
TO THAT AS YOU CONSIDER POLICY
BILLS YOU HAVE A SENSE AS TO
WHERE THOSE FUND CONDITIONS
ACTUALLY ARE.
WE DID I APPROVE AND ARE
IMPLEMENTING AND ASK YOUR SEVEN
A SPECIAL PROJECT REPORT WHICH
OUTLINES THE TIMELINE AND FINAL
PHASE OF THIS THAT THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE SYSTEM.
IT'S
WE REALLY HAD STARTED TO
IMPLEMENT AND MADE CHANGES TO MY
* STEERING COMMITTEE AS TO
THE IMPLEMENTATION AND AND HOW
WE WERE.
.
FINALIZING THIS THE THE LAST
PIECES AND SO WE ASK YOU ARE
HEADED TO TRUE GOT UP
SO IT'S A AGAIN TRUTH IN.
AND HOW WE ARE FUNCTIONING WE
BEEN UTILIZING NOT FOR A LITTLE
BIT AND WE WENT THROUGH THE
FORMAL PROCESS WITH ICD T..
WE DO NOT.
ART WE ARE NOT REQUESTING
ADDITIONAL FUNDS FOR THE BUILD
PART OF THAT FISCAL PROJECT.
AND AND I WE DO REMAIN HOW.
TWENTY EIGHTEEN AS THE FINAL
IMPLEMENTATION FOR THE
DEPARTMENTAL RELEASE.
THE NUMBER OF DEPARTMENTS.
DEPARTED SIZE NUMBER OF
EMPLOYEES AND FUNDS. ARE NOT THE
ONLY FACTORS IN DETERMINING LA.
WHAT THEIR EXPERIENCE WILL BE?
AND SO THAT IS SOMETHING THAT
WHILE WE HAVE THE LARGEST AMOUNT
OF DEPARTMENTS COMING ON THIS
YEAR. WE HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
ADDRESS MANY OF THE ISSUES THAT
THEY WOULD BE STRUGGLING WITH.
SO FOR EMERGENCY SERVICES IN
WORKING WITH CAL FIRE WE HAVE AN
EMERGENCY PROCUREMENT THAT WE'D
ALREADY IMPLEMENTED.
IN TWENTY.
SEVENTEEN AT THE TWENTY
SEVENTEEN RELEASED SO THERE SOME
OF THESE LARGER ISSUES THAT
WE'VE TACKLED AND HAVE
RESOLUTION FOR THEY DO ADDRESSED
SOME OF THE ISSUES WITH THE
LARGER DEPARTMENTS.
WE ALSO HAVE DEDICATED RESOURCES
FROM MY SYSTEM INTEGRATOR THAT
ARE NOW HOUSED WITH SOME OF THE
LARGE DEPARTMENTS THAT.
WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT MAKING
SURE THAT WE GET IT RIGHT COMING
ON. AND SO THAT IS.
AND I HAVE PERSONALLY BEEN
MEETING WITH THE DIRECTORS ALONG
WITH THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE.
GETTING THEM PREPARED IN THAT
THEY ARE IN FACT READY TO TO
JOIN THE SYSTEM LIVE AND I. JULY.
I.
SKIP
FOR SOME OF THAT IT MIGHT.
OF THE S. P. R. SEVEN WITH
RESPECT TO THE S. YELLING ASKED
YOU KNOW IMPLEMENTATION WHICH IS
REALLY BE. THE CRUX IN CONCERN
OF MOST INDIVIDUALS.
IS THAT.
WE ARE SO WE'VE SET MILESTONES
AND WE CHANGED THE
IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS
FROM. ANTI DESIGN AND.
BUILDING THEN TASKED TO A MORE
AGILE.
APPROACH SO WE'RE HAVING SMALLER
SPRINTS WE HAVE.
A HUNDRED AND FOUR SPRINT'S
TOTAL BROKEN INTO TWENTY NINE
SPRING PERIODS WHERE WE HAVE ALL
OF THE QUARRY RESOURCES FROM THE
HOME SCO'S HOME STAFF. ALONG
WITH MY STAFF IN THE SYSTEM
INTEGRATOR.
I TO TACKLE THE ISSUES AND MOVE
THROUGH THE MILESTONES.
SO THERE ARE FIVE MILES JONES IN
THE S. PR AND THE FINAL
MILESTONE WHICH IS MILESTONE SIX
WOULD BE COMPLETED IRAN.
BUT IN AND THEN OUT WHICH IS
UNDER THE DEPARTMENT OF FISCAL
AND AGAIN WE DID NOT BECAUSE
THAT BUILDING THE TECHNICAL
PIECES OF THE SYSTEM.
WILL BE COMPLETED BY THE END OF
THE MILESTONE FIVE.
.
S. PR SEVEN IS ABOUT.
MORE ABOUT THE CUT OVER THEM TO
BUILD SOMEONE TO MAKE SURE THAT
THAT'S IMPORTANT SCO'S. GOING
FIRST FOR THEIR ABILITY TO
EASIER TO MAKE IT EASIER FOR
THEM TO RECONCILE. THE CASH BOOK
OF RECORDS AND ANOTHER COMING UP
LATER SO THEY CAN CORRECT
ANYTHING THAT I MIGHT.
AIR ON.
BUT.
A REGIONALLY AND IDEALLY THE SCO
WOULD OF COME ON FIRST WITH THE
CASH BOOK OF RECORDS.
NOT BECAUSE THEY'RE COMING ON
LAST WE WANT TO HAVE A PERIOD OR
THEY WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A PERIOD
IN IT.
MAKES SENSE TO HAVE.
ALL OF THE DEPARTMENTS IN ONE
SYSTEM TO RECONCILE TO THEIR
SYSTEM SO THAT THAT TRANSFER IN
IS A LESS COMPLICATED AND IS
BETTER FOR THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA AND THE TRUE TEST OF
THE THE CATHARINE TWENTY NIGHT.
TWENTY ASSUME.
SO WE WILL BE RUNNING SO IN
TWENTY EIGHTEEN.
WILL AVE THE COURAGE CAO AND
I'M GONNA KATHY.
WHAT PERCENT? OF THE CAPITAL BE
PRODUCED NINETEEN TWENTY MY
ANALYSIS IS IT NINETEEN TWENTY
OR TWENTY TWENTY ONE.
MARCHED
TWENTY. FIRST WHEN ARTISTS 23-14
ONE OKAY BECAUSE AGAIN MAY NEED
TO HAVE A FULL YEAR IN THE
SYSTEM AS WELL TO PRODUCE IT.
TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RIGHT.
YOU KNOW NUMBERS ARE THEIR
ACCOUNTING FOR CRACK.
I THINK.
UP.
THE ASK YOUR SEVEN ALSO DO
DECOUPLES MOST OF THE
FUNCTIONALITY BETWEEN ASEAN
ASKED YOU KNOW. SO THE TREASURER.
FUNCTIONALITY WILL INCLUDE
GOING LIVE IN OCTOBER SO THAT
FIRST QUARTER OF TWENTY EIGHTEEN.
WILL INCLUDE THE DEPOSIT FIVE
ISLIP FUNCTIONALITY ELECTRONIC
DEPOSIT FORM INTERFACE IS THE
SCO REMITTANCE ADVICE DEPOSITS
OUTGOING PAYMENTS RECORDED IT
WILL BE RECORDED IN FISCALE.
AND INTEGRATION WITH THE DEMAND
BANKS WILL HAPPEN IN FISCAL AND
THAT ALSO THE.
LATE FROM THE ZERO BALANCE
ACCOUNT INTERFACES WILL ALL BE
COMING LIVE THERE'S A COUPLE OF
COMPONENTS THAT.
ARE.
.
THAT ARE TIED WITH THE SCO AND
SO WE DO EXPECT THOSE.
TO BE.
ON TRACK TO IT TWO RELEASE WHEN
I CO COMES ON.
I.
HAVE.
DIFFERENT YOU KNOW I CAN GO INTO
WHAT MILESTONES ARE BUT I'M NOT
SURE THAT THAT'S TERRIBLY.
HELPFUL FOR THE COMMITTEE SETTLE
THE WORKING RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN
THE ARIOUS AGENCIES AND YOU IN
CUSTOMERS.
IS A GOOD ONE.
POINT AT THIS POINT IT IS VERY
GOOD WE ARE.
IT'S AGAIN THAT THE END.
I IS ALL A COMMON GOAL AND I
THINK THAT WE'VE TAKEN OUT A
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF THE.
THE RISK AND UNCERTAINTY BY
DOING THIS INTEGRATED SOLUTION
WITH THE ASIO WITH RICK WHICH
PERMITS THE RUNNING OF THE
LEGACY SYSTEM WITH AND NEW
SYSTEM SIDE BY SIDE IN.
AND THEN CUTTING OVER YOU KNOW.
AND THEY CAN ACTUALLY KIND OF
DIFFERENT LETTERS AT DIFFERENT
TIMES SO IT'S IT'S AGAIN TO THE
BENEFIT OF THE ENTIRE STATE
BECAUSE WE DO NEED TO MAKE SURE
THAT.
THE CASH NUMBERS THAT ENTER INTO
FISTS GAL ARE ARE TRUE AND
ACCURATE PRETTY IMPORTANT STUFF
THAT'S YEAH.
BOTH A FEE FINANCING THE
GOVERNMENT.
BELIAU ANY COMMON.
YES LOU THAT'S WHAT I LESS WITH
THE LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE
FOR JOINING US THANK YOU. AND
THE ATTENDANT DOES SUMMARIZE OUR
CONCERNS REGARDING A FEW ARE
SEVEN WHILE I WILL JUST
HIGHLIGHT WHAT OUR PRINCIPLE
CONCERN IS WHICH THAT WHICH IS
THE S. P. R. SEVEN SUCH AN
ARBITRARY AND DAY IN OUR.
OPINION AND AS A RESULT OF THAT
NOT ALL FUNCTIONS NOT ALL
DEPARTMENTS WILL BE DELIVERED AS
PART OF THE PROJECT AS WAS
ORIGINALLY EXPECTED BY THE
LEGISLATURE AND COMMUNICATED VIA.
PRIOR BUDGET REQUEST AND PRIOR
S. B. R.'S.
SPECIFICALLY ON THE
FUNCTIONALITY PIECE WE
UNDERSTAND THAT THE FISCAL
PROJECT IN SCO HAVE AGREED TO
THE INTEGRATED SOLUTION AS A
MEANS TO VALIDATE DATA. WE
WHOLEHEARTEDLY AGREE AND
UNDERSTAND THE IMPORTANCE OF
MAINTAINING THE INTEGRITY OF OF
THE STATE'S INFORMATION. HOWEVER
THE ULTIMATE TRANSITION FULLY OF
A STEEL ON TO THE FISCAL SYSTEM
WILL NOT HAPPEN WITHIN THE SCOPE
OF THE FISCAL PROJECT. AND THE
COST ASSOCIATED WITH THAT WORK
ARE ALSO OUTSIDE THE PROJECT AND
WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT THE
ABILITY TO TRACK THE FULL COST
OF THE FISCAL PROJECT AND THE
LEGISLATURE'S OVERSIGHT OVER
THOSE ASPECTS.
BECAUSE THEY ARE BEING PUSHED
OFF OUTSIDE OF THE PROJECT
SIMILARLY.
THE FINAL OPPORTUNITY TO ON
BOARD DEPARTMENT IS PART OF THE
PROJECT IS IN JULY TWENTY
EIGHTEEN. IF DEPARTMENTS HAVE
CHALLENGES AND ARE UNABLE TO
TRANSITION AT THAT POINT THEY
WILL ALSO BE PUSHED OFTEN
HANDLED IS PART OF THE
MAINTENANCE AND OPERATION. AND
SIMILARLY WERE CONCERNED ABOUT
THE ABILITY TO TRACK THE COST OF
THOSE COMPONENTS AND FOR THE
LEGISLATURE TO OVERSEE THAT WORK
AS A RESULT WE ARE RECOMMENDING
BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE THAT
CLARIFIES THE LEGISLATURE'S
INTENT THAT THE PROJECT DELIVER
ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS. AN ONBOARD
ALL OF THE TWO APARTMENTS.
RELATIVE TO WHAT WAS EXPRESSED
ORIGINALLY WITHIN THE SCOPE OF
THE PROJECT WE ALSO HAVE
ADDITIONAL RECOMMENDATIONS
REGARDING THE STATE
COMPTROLLER'S BUDGET PROPOSAL
SPECIFICALLY WHICH I MOVE
DISCUSSING THE NEXT COMPONENT
WITH RESPECT TO THE
ACCOUNTABILITY WERE ALL
INTERESTED IN THAT STICKLEY THIS
STUFF COMMITTEE WHERE WE SEEM TO
SPEND A. LOT OF TIME ON IT
PROJECTS.
I ASSUME IT'S SIMPLY AN
ACCOUNTING ISSUE ISN'T I MEAN W
SIMPLY NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT
THE MONEY IS PUT IN THE RIGHT
COLUMN AT SOME POINT SO WE CAN
TELL. WHAT WE'VE SPENT?
I'M NOT BEING AN ACCOUNTANT SO
YOU WRITE WRECKED ME WE JUST
NEED TO BE ABLE TO TELL. WHAT WE
SPEND MONEY ON AND WHAT WE'RE
NOT SPEND MONEY ON AND CRAPPIE
ALWAYS HAVE THIS ISSUE ABOUT
PUSHING?
PROJECT COST INTO THE.
DOWNSTREAM MAINTENANCE AND
OPERATIONS BUDGET WHERE WE CAN'T
TELL WHETHER IT'S TRUE
MAINTENANCE OR WHETHER IT'S
REALLY DOING WHAT SHOULD HAVE
BEEN DONE IN THE FIRST PLACE
WHEN THE.
STERN WAS WATCH SO I'M SURE THAT
CAN BE FIXED GATHERED.
SO IT LEGISLATORS YOUR BEFORE WE
WERE MADE OF A DEPARTMENT.
BASICALLY CONTINUE TO DO THE
ENHANCEMENTS TO THE CITY.
SO IN A SENSE MY THE DEPARTMENT
OF FISKE OUT ITS SOLE
RESPONSIBILITY. IS TO CONTINUE
TO SUPPORT MAINTAIN ENHANCE
I THE THE SYSTEM THE UNDERLYING
SYSTEM TOOK THE LEGISLATURE
CHANGES.
CREATE A NEW DEPARTMENT AS A
HAVE RECENTLY.
WE BRING THEM INTO THE SYSTEM WE
MAKE SURE THAT.
THAT THEY'RE INCORPORATED IF
THERE'S OTHER POLICY CHANGES
THAT ARE MADE EITHER BY THE
LEGISLATURE OR BY THE FOUR
PARTNERS.
WE ARE RESPONSIBLE TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE THE SYSTEM THE SYSTEM
CHANGES ON OUR MAY.
SO THE ACTUAL BUILDING OF THE
SOLUTION.
IS WITH IN MY.
BUDGET SO IT'S EITHER PROJECT
OR.
IN A DEPARTMENTAL HUNTER
PERCENT OF MY DEPARTMENTS COSTS
ARE TO SUPPORT THE SYSTEM WE
OUGHT TO BE ABLE TO ADDRESS
ELYAS CONCERNS BECAUSE YOU HAVE
CONTROL OVER EVERYTHING.
THE PIECE THAT I DON'T HAVE
CONTROL OVER IS THE REQUESTS
THAT ARE OUTSIDE OF FISCAL
SOCIAL DEPARTMENT ASK FOR
RESOURCES OUTSIDE OF HIS GAL IN
ORDER TO IMPLEMENT AT HOME. AS
IS THE CASE WITH US YOU KNOW.
THOSE ARE COSTS
DAY BIG BECAUSE THEIR INCOME
THEIR APPROPRIATE TO A DIFFERENT
ENTITY.
I CAN'T PRESENT THEM.
AND BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO BE
QUITE HONEST BEFORE MAKING SURE
THAT. THIS DOLLAR WAS SPENT ON
THIS PIECE
THE SCO CAN PRESENT THAT
INFORMATION AND WE BE HAPPY TO
CONTINUE AS PARTNERS TO TO
JOINTLY. DISCUSS THOSE THOSE
RESOURCES WITH THE LEGISLATURE
BUT IT REALLY IS WHAT IS THIS
GAL THE DEPARTMENT OF FISCAL
BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR. AND
WHAT ARE THE DEPARTMENTS ARE
ASKING FOR THE RESOURCES BEING
AND HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR
WELL FINANCE SITE NOT TO BELABOR
THIS BECAUSE.
WE DO HAVE OTHER ITEMS AND THIS
IS AN INFORMATIONAL ITEM.
AND YOU ALL CAN WORK THIS
OUTSIDE OF THIS SUBCOMMITTEE WE
DON'T WANT TO GET IN THE WAY OF
MAKING THIS PROJECT TO.
HAVING THIS PROJECT BE THE MOST
SUCCESSFUL EVER.
IF THAT'S POSSIBLE WEDNESDAY
CALIFORNIA IT HAS BEEN.
.
BUT AT THE SAME TIME WE WANT TO
MAKE SURE THAT WE HAVE THE TOOLS
BUILT INTO THE PROCESS SO WE CAN
HAVE SOME ACCOUNTABILITY AND SO
WE KNOW WHAT A PROJECT COST.
AS IN TERMS OF SETTING UP IS
OPPOSED TO OPERATING AND
MAINTAINING IT SO I DON'T KNOW
IF YOU HAVE ANY COMMENT ON THE
LA OWES COMMENT.
OR IF YOU WOULD JUST LIKE TO
RESERVE THOSE AND FIGURE THIS
THING OUT. OFF THE RECORD AND MY
TED RENT FROM A FINANCE MY TWO
COMMENTS ARE THAT ONE. IF THERE
ARE ADDITIONAL COSTS FOR
ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONALITY THE
COME DOWN THE ROAD THOSE WE HAVE
TO GO TO THE B. C. P. PROCESS
BECAUSE THEY'RE NOT CURRENTLY
FUNDED FOR THAT IN THEIR
MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS
BUDGET.
SO THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING THAT
WOULD COME BEFORE THIS COMMITTEE.
AND IN ADDITION TO THAT.
AS PURE SEVEN RE BASS LINES
AEGIS PUREE BASS LINES THE
PROJECT AND SO.
WHAT IS BEFORE YOU? THE IS
PURELY BEFORE YOU NOW IS.
IS THE PROJECT.
AND THERE ON PACE TO MEET THEIR.
GOALS AND ON BUDGET AND ON
SCHEDULE SO THAT'S THAT'S WHERE
WE ARE RIGHT NOW FINANCING WE
SUPPORT THE PROPOSAL OKAY.
