THANK YOU DIRECTOR BERMAN GOOD
AFTERNOON SENATORS.
IS MENTIONED BY DIRECTOR BERMAN
OUR CAPITAL ONLY SUPPORT PROGRAM
IS PROPOSING TO INCREASE BY
EIGHT HUNDRED SEVENTY TWO FULL
TIME EQUIVALENTS. AND TWO
HUNDRED AND THREE POINT ONE
MILLION DOLLARS FOR THE UP
COMING FISCAL YEAR.
TO SUPPORT THE DELIVERY OF
THIRTY TWO HUNDRED ACTIVE
PROJECTS WORTH OVER FORTY EIGHT
BILLION DOLLARS FOR THE STATE
HIGHWAY SYSTEM.
SPECIFICALLY OUR REQUEST IS FOR
THREE HUNDRED NINETY THREE
POSITIONS A P. WISE FOR STATE
STAFF.
FORTY FOUR OF PERSONNEL YOUR
EQUIVALENTS OF CASH OVER TIME.
STATE STAFF.
AND FOUR HUNDRED AND THIRTY FIVE
ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING
CONSULTANT FTC'S.
THIS REQUEST CONSIDERS OUR
BUDGET YOUR NEEDS WITHIN THE
CONTEXT OF A FIVE YEAR WORKLOAD
PROJECTION.
THAT IS INCREASING DUE TO SP ONE
RESOURCES.
AS OF RIGHT NOW CALTRANS HAS
COMPLETED THIRTEEN SP ONE
PROJECTS IT HAS SIXTY FOUR.
UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
IT HAS MORE THAN TWO HUNDRED
BEGINNING THE DESIGN
ENVIRONMENTAL PROCESS.
IN ADDITION TO THAT. AT THE CDC
MEETING TOMORROW.
THEY WILL ADOPT AN ADDITIONAL
TWO POINT SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS
IN SAFETY CONGESTION IN FOR
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS.
STATE AND LOCAL INFRASTRUCTURE.
TRADITIONALLY THE COS PROGRAM
COMES TO YOUR REQUEST TO BE
BUDGETED AT THE NINETY TEN RATIO
ANOTHER WORDS NINETY PERCENT FOR
STATE STAFF.
AND TEN PERCENT FOR CONSULTANT.
IN DEVELOPING THIS REQUEST FOR
RESOURCES.
WE'VE LOOKED AT HOW QUICKLY WE
COULD HIRE.
THROUGH THE UP COMING FISCAL
YEAR.
HOW MUCH OVERTIME WE COULD
FEASIBLY USE THROUGH THE AIR?
AND THAT AND THAT HOW WE COULD
USE ANY CONSULTANT RESOURCES.
TO FILL THE GAPS TO ADDRESS OUR
WORKLOAD NEEDS.
TO ACHIEVE A NINETY TEN RATIO
FOR THE UPCOMING YEAR. WE NEED
TO HIRE ABOUT EIGHT HUNDRED
ADDITIONAL STAFF.
BUT WE CAN'T DO THIS BY JULY
FIRST.
OUR PLAN IS TO CONTINUE OUR
EFFORTS TO HIRE AGGRESSIVELY.
AND BRING ON BOARD. AS MANY
QUALIFIED CANDIDATES AS QUICKLY
AS WE CAN TO MEET OUR GOAL OF
ACHIEVING THE TRADITIONAL NINETY
TEN RATIO.
IN THE PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE IN
THIS REQUEST INCLUDES
REQUIREMENT TO PROVIDE THE
LEGISLATURE MONTHLY.
UPDATES ABOUT THE PROGRESS
MAKING A HIRING EFFORTS.
IF WE HIRE ABOUT HUNDRED PER
MONTH AND CONSIDER ATTRITION WE
WILL HAVE A NET INCREASE OF
EIGHT HUNDRED. EMPLOYEES SIX
NEXT YEAR WHICH WOULD REACH OUR
GOAL. OF THREE THOUSAND SEVEN
HUNDRED AND SEVENTY NINE STATES
STAFF
ACHIEVING THE NINETY TEN RATIO.
BEFORE ABLE TO HIRE MORE SOONER
WILL DO SO.
WE'RE NOT LOCKED IN BY THE THREE
HUNDRED NINETY THREE POSITIONS
IN THIS REQUEST.
THE PROPOSED PROVISIONAL
LANGUAGE PROVIDES ADDITIONAL
FLEXIBILITY THAT WILL ALLOW THE
PROGRAM.
TO ADJUST THE MIX OF PERSONAL
SERVICES AND CONSULTANTS DEFEND
OUR WORKLOAD NEEDS.
AND THE ABILITY TO HIRE
THROUGHOUT THE YEAR.
IF OUR PROPOSAL IN PROVISIONAL
LANGUAGES APPROVED THE PERSONAL
SERVICES BUDGET. EITHER THE
OVERTIME OR REGULAR STATE STAFF
TIME. MAY ACTUALLY BE UTILIZED
ABOVE THE BUDGET LEVELS.
LAST YEAR AT THIS TIME CONCERNS
WERE RAISED ABOUT OUR LEVEL OF
VACANCIES AT THE END OF THE
FISCAL YEAR AND OUR ABILITY TO
HIRE.
AS CALTRANS CONTINUES TO KID A
TRANSITION FROM A DECLINING COS
PROGRAM TO A PERIOD OF GROWTH.
WE'VE HAD AN INCREASED FOCUS ON
HIRING TO KEEP PACE WITH THE
WORKLOAD PROJECTIONS.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
WE'VE ADAPTED AND RAMPED UP OUR
HIRING PRACTICES OVER THE COURSE
OF THIS LAST OF FISCAL YEAR. AND
EXPECT HIGHER OVER SEVEN HUNDRED
AND FIFTY NEW TO CALTRANS
EMPLOYEES.
AS OF LATE APRIL THE COS PROGRAM
HAD ABOUT A HUNDRED AND TWENTY
FIVE VACANCIES.
BUT TWO HUNDRED CONDITIONAL JOB
OFFERS.
TO ACHIEVE THE SUCCESS AND
HIRING WE PARTICIPATED IN
UNIVERSITY CAREER FAIRS WITH
MADE FOCUSED EFFORTS FOR HARD TO
RECRUIT CLASSIFICATIONS USING
LINKEDIN IN TRADE MAGAZINES.
WE'VE HELD CAREER FAIRS AT OUR
CALTRANS FACILITIES.
WE'VE PERFORMED MASS HIRING OUT
EFFORTS PUTTING OUT ADS FOR
THIRTY OR FORTY PEOPLE IN A
SINGLE AD.
WE'VE TARGETED A OUTREACH
NATIONALLY TO COLLEGES
UNIVERSITIES PROFESSIONAL
ORGANIZATIONS.
I WILL BE WORKING IN PARTNERSHIP
WITH CAL HR TO PILOT THE CREW
AMBASSADOR CAP PROGRAM.
TO BE MORE STRATEGIC ON A
RECRUITMENT EFFORTS.
MOST RECENTLY WE BEGAN TAKING
OUR CALTRANS HIRING CENTERS ON
THE ROAD.
A FULL SERVICE SOPRANO GE TO
RECRUITING AND HIRING BY MOVING
ARE HIRING PANELS AND OUR HR
STAFF. TO WEAR POTENTIAL FUTURE
EMPLOYEES ARE LOCATED.
SO LAST WEEK WE WERE AT FRESNO
STATE UNIVERSITY WITH A MOBILE
HIRING CENTER.
WE HELD INTERVIEWS FOR A DAY AND
A HALF WE WERE ABLE TO MAKE
FIFTY JOB OFFERS.
AND TO TO QUALIFIED CANDIDATES.
PART OF UR ADAPTATION.
WILL HAVE TO UPCOMING HIRING
CENTERS NEXT WEEK AT SACRAMENTO
STATE.
AND IN EARLY JUNE ONE AT CAL
POLY POMONA.
THIS WILL INCREASE OUR HIRING
OPPORTUNITIES.
THE CANDIDATES AREN'T LIMITED TO
THE STUDENTS OF THOSE
UNIVERSITIES WERE USING THOSE AS
HIRING HELPS.
BUT IN HIRING IN THIS WAY WE.
WERE GOING TO WEAR THE
CANDIDATES ARE RATHER THAN
ASKING THEM TO COME TO US.
WITH ARE MORE AGGRESSIVE HIRING
APPROACH WE EXPECT AND THIS
FISCAL YEAR WITH NO VACANCIES.
AND GOING BEYOND THAT GETTING
HEAD START ON A HIRING FOR NEXT
YEAR.
THE ULTIMATE GOAL FOR THE
CALTRANS.
UP FOR THE CEO WAS PROGRAM
CONTINUES TO BE TO MEET OUR
OBLIGATIONS AND DELIVER ARE
PROJECTS FOR THE TRAVELING
PUBLIC.
WELL ACHIEVING THE NINETY TEN
STATE STAFF AD TEMPER SENT ANY
CONSULTANT.
MAKE UP BY THE END OF THE
EIGHTEEN NINETEEN FISCAL YEAR.
IN ADDITION THIS REQUEST
INCLUDES NON COS PROGRAM
OPERATING EXPENSES AND ONE TIME
ALLOCATION OF ONE POINT TWO
MILLION.
FOR CALTRANS A ADMINISTRATION
PROGRAM TO PAY THE DEPARTMENT OF
GENERAL SERVICES TO EVALUATE
CALTRANS FACILITY NEEDS. A LOT
OF OUR NEED TO HIRE MORE STAFF
TO DELIVER MORE PROJECTS.
THE PURPOSE OF THE DIGEST SPACE
STUDIES TO PROVIDE A
COMPREHENSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF
CALTRANS SPACE UTILIZATION
WITHIN ITS DISTRICT OFFICE
BUILDINGS.
THIS WILL ALLOW CALTRANS TO
REQUEST FUNDING FOR SPACE NEEDS
RESULTING FROM ANTICIPATED STAFF
INCREASES.
A MEETING WAS HELD THIS PAST
FRIDAY TO DISCUSS THE SPACE
STUDY AND TO SCOPE TO WORK. AND
A FOLLOW UP MEETING WILL BE HELD
NEXT WEEK. TO REVIEW OUR.
PREVIOUS SPACE PLAN EXAMPLES
AND DEVELOP A MODEL FOR THIS
APPROACH DOESN'T PEACHY ES HAVE
THAT INFORMATION I MEAN AREN'T
THEY SUPPOSED TO BE MANAGING ALL
OUR.
STATE FACILITIES.
BUT I MEAN. IF YOU SAY YOU GET A
HIGHER EIGHT HUNDRED AND SEVENTY
FIVE.
THEN SOMEBODY PUT IN MORE. OF A
ALGORITHM AND SAY WELL YOU'RE
GONNA NEED SO MUCH SPACE AFTER
TECH ONE TECH TO.
ROOM.
ISN'T THAT WHAT THEY'RE IN THE
BUSINESS OF DOING WHAT WE PAY
THEM TO DO THAT EVERY.
EVERY DAY TO MANAGE OUR
FACILITIES IN TO TELL US WHAT
WHAT SPACE WE NEED FOR. THE
ENGINEER AND ALL THAT.
BOTH.
EXCUSE ME BECAUSE IT TAKES
FOREVER TO GET ANYTHING ON THE
GS IS HERE I'M SURE. AT SEA
WALLS DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE MOST
OF CALTRANS FACILITIES ARE
MANAGED THROUGH CALTRANS ITSELF
TGS SLOWED TO DIGEST HAS A HAS
LIMITED. COM.
LIMITED.
KNOWLEDGE OR PARTNERSHIP IN IN
THE MANAGEMENT OF SAUDIS.
BOMBED PARTICULARLY OVER THE
LAST TEN YEARS AS THEY'VE THE.
CALTRANS IS ACTUALLY REDUCED
SOME OF THE FACILITIES AS A
GOTTEN SMALLER.
SO BUT THAT HAS BEEN LIKE SICK
CALTRANS IS.
MOST THEIR FACILITIES ARE
CALTRANS OWN NOT STATE YOU KNOW
NOT OWN THROUGH BGS RELEASE
THIRTY GS.
SO THEY'RE BASICALLY USING THEM
AS A CONSULTANT FOR SPACE NEEDS
IT WOULD BE USED USING THEM AS A
CONSULTANT TO PLAN HOW HOW WE'RE
GOING TO MOVE FORWARD. BASICALLY
LOOK AT THE LOOK OF SERVICES
THAT THE LOOK AT THE OFFICE
SPACE THEY CURRENTLY HAVE. A
LOOK AT STACKING OPTIONS.
YOU KNOW PLANNING OPTIONS HOW
YOU KNOW AS WE MOVE FORWARD FOR
LOOK AT TALK EP ABOUT THE.
COULD. ACCU BECAUSE THEY HAVE
ONLINE NOW THIS OF.
SORRY OKAY I'M.
IT DOES PLEASE FINISH NOW ABOUT
TO CONCLUDE CENTER.
I'M.
WE ARE ALSO ASKING IN THIS
REQUEST FOR A ONE TIME TO
MILLION DOLLAR ALLOCATION FOR
THE LEGAL PROGRAM FOR INCREASED
CONSTRUCTION ARBITRATION.
EXPENSES.
TOO INC IN CONCLUSION WE FEEL
THIS IS THE RIGHT AMOUNT AND THE
RIGHT MIX OF RESOURCES TO
DELIVER NEXT YEAR'S PROJECTS.
IT ALLOWS THE DEPARTMENT TO
AGGRESSIVELY HIRE. WHILE FILLING
THE GAPS.
UNTIL WE CAN BRING ABOUT NEW
EIGHT HUNDRED NEW EMPLOYEES ON
BOARD. AND REACH OUR GOAL OF THE
THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED AND
SEVENTY NINE STATE STAFF WHICH
IS CONSISTENT WITH THEIR
TRADITIONAL NINETY TEN SPLIT
BETWEEN STATE STAFF MAINLY
CONSULTANT RESOURCES.
THAT INCLUDES OPENING STATEMENT
MAYBE DIRECTOR BERMAN AIR FOR
YOU AT LET'S ANTICIPATE THE
ALLEY OWES CHALLENGE THAT THE
MET. THE CONFUSING METHODOLOGY
THAT'S GONE ON AND THE NEED FOR
THAT TED. AS A AND THE
RELIABILITY OF IT CAN YOU
ADDRESS THE CONCERNS THAT THE
ALEJO IS GOING TO ASK AS SOON AS
I.
ASK WHAT THE LA ONCE.
SO WE'VE DOCUMENTED IT ON THE CO
ES PROGRAM.
CERTAINLY WE OF ADOPTED.
IN TWO THOUSAND FOURTEEN A NEW
WAY OF ROLLING UP OUR OUR.
ESTIMATES FOR OUR WORK PLANS.
WHEN THE PRISM SYSTEM FIRST
CAME ON BOARD YES THERE WERE
SOME DATA INTEGRITY ISSUES IT
WAS A BRAND NEW SYSTEM THAT WE
WERE USING.
SINCE THEN WE HAVE DEVELOPED ARE.
AUTOMATED REPORTS TO TRY TO
FLAG IDENTIFY DISCREPANCIES IN
THE.
PRISM DATABASE BUT IN ADDITION
WE HAVE THE FIFTEEN CITY LOOKING
AT US ARE REVIEWING. EACH PHASE
OF OUR DELIVERY BOTH FIND IN
SUPPORT AND CAPITAL FOR THIS
PROGRAM AND WE HAVE THE
INSPECTOR GENERAL. AYE IN
ADDITION LOOKING OVER OUR
SHOULDER.
.
OKAY NO I'M.
SENATE MCGUIRE AND I ARE ON THE
TRANSPORTATION HOUSING COMMITTEE
AND THAT THEY'VE COMPLETED THE
CALENDAR SO THEY NEED FOR US TO
GO OVER SO WE'RE GOING TO HOLD
THIS MATTER OPEN BUT I WILL TURN.
IT OVER FOR YOU FOR THE
QUESTIONS.
YOU HAVE A QUESTION REAL QUICK
BEFORE WE WILL ACT OKAY.
GO AHEAD CENTER MCGUIRE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I'D DO IT IS
WE TAKE A LOOK AT THE PAST IN
REGARDS AND FOCUSING STRICTLY AN
ENGINEERING STAFF.
SO AM UNDERSTAND THE GOAL THEN
IT'S IMPORTANT TO BE ABLE TO
HIRE THESE PROFESSIONALS BE A TO
GET THESE PROJECTS MOVED AND
FOLLOW THROUGH WTH THE MANDATE
BY THE VOTE AT BY THE
LEGISLATURE WHICH. ONE APPROVED
THE VOTERS THAT WERE ALE TO GET
THIS MONEY ON THE STREET
HIGHWAYS BUILT MAN PROOF.
I THINK THE CHALLENGES THAT
WE'VE REALLY TIGHT JOB MARKET
RIGHT.
AND THERE ARE ENGINEERS IT MAY
BE MAKING MORE IN THE PRIVATE
SECTOR CANDIDLY.
IN SO WHERE WE'VE BEEN LOOKING
AT.
GOAL OF THE HUNDRED WE'VE BEEN
LOOKING AT FIFTY TO SIXTY A
MONTH BY THAT HAVE BEEN HIRED.
HERE IN THIS CURRENT FISCAL
COULD YOU SEE THE PROSPECTS
IMPROVING RELATED TO HITTING
THAT HUNDRED GOAL BECAUSE WE
HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE THAT THAT
HUNDRED GOAL. LEADING UP TO NOW
AND WE CONTINUE CA TIGHTER
ENTIRE JOB MARKET IF YOU DON'T
MIND COMMENTING ON THAT.
SO WE DO FEEL THE WORD DESIRABLE
EMPLOYER HOWEVER FINDING WITH OR
HARD THERE SAID THAT BUT I
DIDN'T KNOW BUT THAT DIDN'T
SPONSORED THAT WE ARE SEEING
THAT WE HAVE ON. A SIGNIFICANT
RESPONSE TO THE ADS WERE PUTTING
OUT AS I MENTIONED WE HAVE FIFTY
JOB OFFERS FROM FRESNO STATE WE
HAD OVER A HUNDRED AND TWENTY.
CANDIDATES THAT CAME TO THAT
THE HIRING CENTER AND AND WE
HAVE THE ADDITIONAL HIRING
CENTERS COMING OUT WERE ALSO
LOOKING AT.
OUTREACH BEYOND THE CALIFORNIA
BORDERS ARE IN FACT ONE OF THE
CANDIDATES AND I CAN'T REMEMBER
CAME FROM VIRGINIA OR SOMETHING
BECAUSE IT'S SO DESIRABLE TO
WORK FOR US CALIFORNIA.
AND I THINK CALTRANS IS VERY
RESPECTABLE ORGANIZATION IN VERY
DESIRABLE BUT THE FACT IS THAT
HAVE NOT BEEN HIT IN THE GOALS.
LEADING UP UNTIL THIS MONTH SO.
THAT'S WHY I'M ASKING IS THAT
WHAT DO YOU HOPE TO CHANGE
BECAUSE I THINK THAT'S BEEN THE
BIGGEST CHALLENGE AND BY THE WAY
I'M NOT THROWING STONES HERE.
I'M JUST LOOKING AT YOUR RIDE
DATA YOU HAVE NOT HIT HUNDRED
ENGINEER GOAL.
SO I'M JUST DISAPPOINTED IF YOU
THINK THIS EVENING CHANGING FOR
WE'VE I CERTAINLY HAD TO ADAPT
OUR HIRING PRACTICES AT FIRST WE
WERE DOING IT THE WAY WE HAD
BEEN WE ARE DECLINING PROGRAM
WE'VE HAD DID I JUST IT'S BEEN.
TEN YEARS SINCE WE'VE REALLY
BEEN HIRING AT THAT SUCH A. A
LEVEL ON SO WE'VE IMPROVED AND
ARE ARE HIRING PRACTICES.
AS A RESULT IN SO THE HIRING
CENTER FOR INSTANCE IS AN
EXAMPLE OF OUR ABILITY TO RAMP
UP BUT THE OTHER THING I MIGHT
ADD IS. WE WILL HAVE NO
VACANCIES WE WILL HAVE HIT OUR
TARGET BY THE END OF THIS FISCAL
YEAR.
AND NOW WORK WE PLAN TO DO THE
EXACT SAME THING THE NEXT FISCAL
YEAR IS HIT THAT TARGET HAVE NO
VACANCIES THE NEXT FISCAL YEAR
AND AND PERHAPS.
AGAIN.
OF PREPARE OURSELVES FOR THE
FOLLOWING YEAR AND CAN BE ABLE
TO. ANTICIPATE ARE HIRING NEEDS
IN THE FUTURE USING THESE NEW
TOOLS ABDUCTOR ANY ITEMS YOU'D
LIKE TO ADD.
YES I WOULD JUST ADD THAT YOU
KNOW THAT HAS BEEN YEARS SINCE
WE'VE HIRED SO WE WENT OUT WITH
THE SAME OLD SAME OLD. AND WE
FOUND THAT WHAT WAS HAPPENING
WAS BY THE TIME WE WERE ABLE TO
MAKE AN OFFER PEOPLE THAT ARE
THE EXCEPTION OTHER JOB AND I
THINK THAT'S WHY THIS NEW PLAN
OF.
EVERYBODY GOES TO THE HIRING HUB
OR CENTRE WEAVING THE HIRING
CENTER TO THE CAMPUS AND WERE
ABLE TO MAKE OFFERS ON THE SPOT
I THINK THAT'S MAKE A
SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE.
THANK YOU SO MUCH NARAL TRYING
TO BE DISRESPECTFUL I TO GO VOTE
DIVAC THANK YOU MISTER.
I UNDERSTAND THAT.
WELL I'M FAMILIAR WITH THE.
TREMENDOUS NUMBER OVERSTAFFED.
THAT WOULD KNOWLEDGE.
COUPLE YEARS AGO.
ISN'T THAT CORRECT ANALYST.
OVERSTEPPING.
THAT THAT WAS.
YET FOUR YEARS AGO E HAD
LOOKED AND UP THAT THE CAPITAL
OUTLAY SUPPORT PROGRAM AND
IDENTIFIED SIGNIFICANT OVER
STAFFING NOW. OF SEVERAL THINGS
HAVE CHANGED SINCE THAT TIME
THEY HAVE LET'S GO TO THAT JUST
A MINUTE WAS THAT OVERSTAFFED
THING BECAUSE THEY REFUSE TO
DOWNSIZE THAT DURING THE TIME
WHEN THEY SHOULD HAVE. THEY JUST
HELD ON THE STAFF.
I THINK IT WAS RELATED TO YEAH A
COUPLE OF DIFFERENT FACTORS AS
WELL.
IT ALSO WAS NOT HIRING AS AS
MANY STAFF AS THEY PLANNED ONE
WHEN PROP ONE BE HAD.
PROVIDE ADDITIONAL FUNDING AND
THEN PROBABLY NOT DECLINING AS
MUCH AFTER THAT FUNDING EXPIRED.
OF THESE.
.
STAFF I'M UNDERSTANDING THERE'S
SOME THIRTY SEVEN HUNDRED WERE.
UNFILLED POSITIONS I.
CALL THOSE SALARY SAVING
POSITIONS.
WERE THOSE.
LARGE NUMBER UNTIL.
BECAUSE YOU JUST COULDN'T
RECRUIT IS THAT WHY OR DID YOU
PURPOSELY LEAVE THEM OPEN A LOT
OF AGENCIES HAVE DONE THAT OVER
THE YEARS.
S. SALARY STATE JUST DIDN'T FILL
POSITIONS.
HELD THE POSITION BUT DIDN'T.
BUT DO YOU HAVE AN OPTION
OBSERVATION ON THAT YEAH THE
THIRTY FIVE HUNDRED NUMBER THAT
WE CAME UP WITH FOR YEARS AGO
WASN'T NECESSARILY THE VACANT
POSITIONS. WE JUST FELT THAT
THEY HAD MORE STAFF ON BOARD AND
THEY NEEDED TO ACCOMPLISH THE
WORKLOAD SAID WAS IN DISARRAY AT
THE POSITIONS ARE VACANT EVER
SINCE THERE WERE MORE PEOPLE
THAN NECESSARY WASN'T WASN'T HER
SALARY SAVING ISSUE THAT.
NOW YOU THEN ALSO DID YOU NOT
CHALLENGE OUR METHODOLOGY.
YEAH THAT'S RIGHT WHEN WE
REVIEWED THEIR METHODOLOGY.
WE IDENTIFIED A LOT OF
INACCURACIES IN THE THE DATA.
AS THE DEPARTMENT MENTIONED
THEY THEY HAVE MADE SOME
IMPROVEMENTS SINCE THAT TIME AND
THERE'S BEEN SOME ADDITIONAL.
CGC OVERSIGHT OF THE CAPITALIZE
FOR PROGRAM. BUT I DON'T THINK
WE'RE AT A POINT WHERE WE HAVE
FULL CONFIDENCE YET IN THE
ESTIMATES.
AND WHAT WILL IT TAKE TO ACHIEVE
THAT WILL THESE NEW.
.
THE PROCEDURES DON'T THEY HAVE
TO BE FORMALIZED IN SOME MANNER.
TO THE HAVE TO BE FORMALIZED BY
REGULATION. OR JUST BY POLICY.
NO I DON'T I DON'T THINK THERE'S
REGULATIONS INVOLVED I THINK
THEY JUST.
REVISE THEIR INTERNAL BUDGET
DEVELOPMENT PROCESS TOM
I THINK I THINK THE BIG PROBLEM
SPEAK BETTER TO THAT BUT I THINK
THEY MIGHT HAVE SOME
DOCUMENTATION TO THAT THEY.
USE INTERNALLY TO TO DEFINE HOW
THAT PROCESS WORKS THAT THEY
WOULD CHANGE WIRED THEM. TO
FINANCE IN YOUR ANSWER WITH A
REQUIRED TO SUBMIT THAT TO YOU
PRIOR.
TO FILLING ANY SUCH POSITIONS.
THIS FAR IS THEM TO THOSE FAR AS
THE DEPARTMENT DETERMINING THE
WORKLOAD THE WORKLOAD IS NOW
REQUIRED STATUTORILY TO BE
SUBMITTED ON A PHASE SPACES SO
WHEN WE LOOK AT SO WE'RE LOOKING
AT EACH PHASE AND BOTH THE
SUPPORT AND THE CAPITAL SECTOR.
SO THE APPROVAL OF THE SHOP
PROGRAMS TO PROGRAM THAT THE
PROGRAM DISAPPROVED BY PHASE.
SO THAT'S THAT'S NEW IN THAT
STATUTORY.
THERE'S ALSO. WHEN WENT IN IN
FOURTEEN FIFTEEN WHEN.
WHEN THE PRISON SYSTEM FIRST
CAME ON BOARD.
WE WERE STILL YOU KNOW DID JUST
BECAUSE WE WENT IN FOURTEEN
FIFTEEN TO THE NEW SYSTEM. THERE
WAS STILL ALL OF THE PROJECTS
YOU ARE CURRENTLY WORKING ON SEE
AVERAGE PROJECT FIX FOR FIVE
YEARS TO COMPLETE.
pMORE THAN THAT SO AS WE WERE. TH
AS WE WERE BLOATING MORE
PROJECTS INTO THIS IN THE SYSTEM
AS WE LOOK AT NEW OR PROJECTS IN
THE SYSTEM THOSE WE ARE BECOMING
MORE AND MORE.
CAPABLE OF PULLING RECENT DATE
OUT THE RECENT SYSTEM SO. EACH
YEAR AS THE DATA DOWNLOAD IS
DONE THAT THE ONE YOU'RE SLICE
THE ONE YOU'RE LOOK AT WHAT'S
GOING TO BE DONE IN THE IN THE
PLANNED YEAR. MORE MORE OF THAT
DATA CAME FROM.
THE OUT OF THIS BEING UPLOADED
IN THE SYSTEM.
THIRD THE NEWER SYSTEMS SO OF
THE DEPARTMENT PUT TOGETHER.
SUCH THE AUTOMATICS.
GUARDRAILS THAT ALLOW TO LOOK
AT THAT DATA AND SEE IF THERE'S
ANY DATA DISCREPANCIES THAT JUMP
OFF AND THERE'S.
BUT A WHOLE LIST OF
YOU KNOW.
CHECKPOINTS THAT IF THERE'S YOU
KNOW IF THERE'S A. GOOD TIME
TIME PLAN TO A PROJECT IT'S PAST
ITS COMPLETION DATE THEN THEY
WOULD LOOK AT AND THAT DOESN'T
NECESSARILY ALWAYS MEAN THAT
THAT'S WRONG BUT IT MEANS IT
REQUIRES AN ADDITIONAL LOOK TO
SEE ALL WILL THERE'S. YOU KNOW
THERE'S SOME FOR A POST
CONSTRUCTION THING THAT.
THE DEPARTMENT HAS HAS
COMMITTED TO AMERICA BUT IT IT
GOES THROUGH AND FOR EACH FOR
EACH OF THESE.
NOTED SITUATIONS
IT WILL BE YOU KNOW IT POLLS
THAT UP AND THEN THOSE THERE ARE
GIVEN EXTRA SCRUTINY THAT'S
PRIOR TO BECOMING THE FINANCING
FOR FOR OUR REVIEW IN THE WE
REVIEW WITH THEM. OF THESE
PARTICULAR.
DATA ANOMALIES. OF WHEN THIS
FIRST HAPPENED IN FIFTEEN ON OUR
FIRST FOURTEEN FIFTEEN FIFTEEN
SIXTEEN.
THE NUMBER OF DATA POINTS THAT
WOULD COME UP WERE IN THE
HUNDREDS AND THEN THAT WOULD GO
INTO THE LOW HUNDREDS THE NEXT
YEAR AND THEN IT BECAME UNDER A
HUNDRED A YEAR AFTER THAT SO.
WE'VE SEEN THOSE DATA POINTS
PROGRESSIVELY GETTING LESS AS
MORE AND MORE FRESH STATE HAS
BEEN LOADED IN THE SYSTEM.
SO AS WE MOVE FORWARD WE NOW
HAVE AGAIN WE HAVE.
EXPANDED ROLE FOR THE CDC AS
FAR AS APPROVING.
PROGRAMS WE'VE GOT THE.
INSPECTOR GENERAL PROGRAM.
WE CERTAINLY HAVE MORE JUST
CRITICAL SCRUTINY OF PROJECTS AS
WE MOVE FORWARD UNDER SB ONE.
ALL OF THESE THINGS ARE GOING
TO LEAD THAT DOESN'T KNOW THAT
LEAD US TO BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE
A MUCH BETTER CONTROL. OVER
WHERE THINGS ARE GOING ON A ON
THE WORKLOAD PLANNING.
AS FAR AS THE BUDGETING SIDE OF
THAT I MEAN THEN IT COMES TO US
AND WE LOOK AT.
WE YOU KNOW WE CONSIDER.
THAT THE ABILITY TO HIRE WE
CONSIDER NEW INNOVATIONS IN
HIRING.
WE LOOK AT TRENDS.
WELL WHAT THE TREND.
WELL IT'S GOOD THAT THE HUNDRED
PEOPLE PER MONTH IS AN
AGGRESSIVE GOAL ON IF YOU LOOK
AT THE TREND LINES OF THE NUMBER
PEOPLE THEY'RE BRINGING IN A
MONTH IT DOESN'TSEEM OUT OF OUT
OF SORTS THAT THEY WOULD GET TO
THAT.
THE LANGUAGE THAT WE ADDED
THOUGH THAT WE'VE ASKED FOR THAT
ALLOWS US TO FILL IN THE GAPS AS
WE MOVE FORWARD.
YOU KNOW WILL ALLOW TO MAKE
SURE THE WORK GETS DONE.
FROM UP FROM OUR STANFORD FOR
FINANCING POINT WE'RE VERY
CONCERNED THAT.
THE RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE. SO
THAT THEY THEY CAN FIT THE TEN
THOUSAND THREE HUNDRED NINETEEN
FIFTY YEARS WORTH OF PROJECT
WORK.
AND BECAUSE THIS AGAIN BECAUSE
THOSE ARE RE BEING REPORTED TO
THE CDC BOB BY PROJECT PHASE.
THERE'S A MUCH MORE GRANULAR
LOOKS AND.
A MUCH HIGHER LEVEL OF OF A
HIGHER STANDARD OF.
COMPLIANCE
THE PLAN I'M STILL CONFUSED OVER
WHO HAS ANY CONTROL THOUGH SO
THAT NOW WE GOT.
ASSUMING IMPROVE DATA.
BUT WHO HAS THE AUTHORITY TO SAY
WELL NO.
WE'RE NOT GOING TO GO ALONG WITH
THAT.
WE WILL NOT HIRE EX NUMBER. WE
THINK THAT'S INACCURATE.
HAS ANYBODY EVER. BEEN ABLE TO
DO THAT WITH CALTRANS AND AND
I'M NOT SURE FINANCE WE WE.
X. YOU KNOW THEY'RE THE EXPERTS
ON WHICH ON DETERMINING WHICH
PROPERTIES ARE WHICH.
PROJECTS ARE MOVING FORWARD.
SO TO THE DEGREE THAT THE THE
PROJECTS MAKE SENSE FROM THE
OVERALL PLAN I MEAN WE WE HAVE.
THE OF EVERY TWO YEARS WE
UPDATE THE FOR YOUR.
SHOP PLAN.
AND WE HAVE.
THAT WITH THE MAINTENANCE PLAN
THAT IS NOW BEEN ROLLED TOGETHER
INTO TH ASSET MANAGEMENT PLAN
AND SO WE REVIEW TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE PROJECT BEING PROPOSED.
ARE CONSISTENT WITH WHAT YOU
WOULD EXPECT TO SEE FROM THESE
PLANS.
BOB AS FAR AS THESE INDIVIDUAL
PROJECTS.
THAT IS MORE OF THE EXPERTISE
THE CTC AND AND CALTRANS.
AND HOW DO YOU RECONCILE.
PROJECTED WITH ACTUAL HOW HOW
DOES THAT KIND OF. COME TOGETHER
WE'VE PROJECTED SUCH WORKLOAD.
AT THE HOW MANY MONTHS WEEKS.
YEARS LATER DIDN'T YOU DETERMINE.
AND ASSESS HAVE YOU MET THE
TARGET.
WELL AGAIN ON THE ON THE SIDE A
COS BECAUSE EACH YEAR ON EACH
YEAR'S REQUEST AS AS A STAND
ALONE YOUNG NEXT YEAR WILL ZERO
BASE AGAIN. AND EACH YEAR WE
WILL WE WILL FOLD AND YOU KNOW
IF YOU LOOK AT THE PRIOR YEAR
AXLES IN THE SYSTEM ON THE CLS
PROGRAM ON THE PART OF THE
PROJECT. SIDE OF THE PROGRAM YOU
CAN SEE WHERE YOU CAN SEE ACTUAL
P. WISE USE.
NOW WE'VE BEEN ON THE CLOCK AND
A DECLINING MODE AND CALTRANS
HAS BEEN MANAGING TO THE DECLINE.
FEEL FOR TEN YEARS NOW SO THEY
HAVE STAYED UNDER THE UNDER THE
NUMBER FOR FOR EACH FOR EACH
YEAR OF OF THOSE LAST TEN YEARS.
AND THAT WOULD BE THAT
SOMETHING TO EXPECT AS THEY WERE
TRYING TO MANAGE TO THE
DECREASED WORKLOAD.
SO AS WE MOVE FORWARD.
.
YOU KNOW I WOULD HOPE THAT ON
THE PROJECT DELIVERY SIDE I MEAN
THEY HAVE FAIRLY.
ROBUST.
EXPECTATIONS AS TO WHAT THEY'RE
GOING DELIVER AND THEIR YOU KNOW
THE THE STANDARDS BY WHICH THE
GOING TO BE IMPROVING THINGS.
UNDER ESRI ONE AND AGAIN I
THINK THAT THE.
INSPECTOR GENERAL'S OFFICE IN
THE INCREASE WILL SEE TO SEE
WILL.
I HAVE BUT A A DEFINITE EFFECT
ON THE DELIVERY SIDE AND ON
BEING A ON HAVING SCRUTINY OVER
WHAT PROJECTS ARE DELIVERING AND
HOW MUCH TIME.
ON FINANCE SIDE WILL CONTINUE TO
MONITOR MAKE SURE THAT. THAT THE
BUDGETED AMOUNTS ARE FITTING
WITH YOU KNOW WE WE WE KNOW HOW
MUCH OF THE NEW SYSTEM OUR NEW
FISCAL SYSTEM WHICH HAS ALSO A
LOT A AFFORDED US SOME.
A LEVEL OF HEADACHES BUT ALSO.
A NEW ABILITY TO LOOK AT THAT
MORE GRANULAR DATA.
WILL ALLOW US TO CONTINUE TO
MONITOR YOU KNOW. OVERTIME COSTS
THE STAFFING A PERSONAL SERVICE
OF LEVELS. AND ARE A NEW
CONTRACTING.
AND AGAIN YOU KNOW BE ABLE TO BE
ABLE TO HAVE A NUMBER FOR THAT
AT THE END OF EVERY YEAR AND
THAT'S HOW WE WERE ABLE TO
DETERMINE THE ELECT OVERTIME
COSTS THAT WE. INCLUDED IN THIS
YEAR'S REQUEST IS BASED ON. A
YEARS WORTH OF ACTUAL IS AND
WHAT IT'S ACTUALLY COSTING SO
YOU'RE ABLE TO JUST FOR THAT
BACK IN BECAUSE WE HAVE BETTER
DATA. BUT THIS CALTRANS HAVE A
OF THE POLICY.
.
HARD AND FAST ON SALARY SAVINGS
DID YOU TRY TO MAINTAIN SO MANY
POSITIONS OUR SAVINGS OR IS A
TARGET IT MAYBE IN THE PAST
THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT TO MANAGE
TO THE THE DECREASING WORKLOAD
I'M WE WE KNEW EVERY YEAR THAT
WE WERE GOING TO HAVE. HIM WHEN
WE CANNOT WITH THIS REQUEST.
IT WAS GOING TO BE YOU KNOW
SEVERAL HUNDRED THREE ENTERED A
SUPPOSITIONS ON AVERAGE LESS
THAN THE YEAR BEFORE.
AND BECAUSE THE BUDGET GOES INTO
EFFECT ON DAY ONE.
NO THERE'S NO GIVE THEIR IT IS
WE NEED TO GLIDE INTO THAT
NUMBER SO CALTRANS HAS BEEN
MANAGING. AS PEOPLE LEAVE AND
AND NOT REPLACING EVERYONE WHO
LEFT.
TO GLIDE INTO THAT NUMBER SO
THAT WE COULD MANAGE IT THROUGH
THE YEARS
WELL HOW MANY CALTRANS POSITIONS
IN THESE FEW YEARS DID YOU
ACTUALLY.
TERMINATE. DID NOT FILL. AND
THEN YOU TERMINATE SESSION HOW
MANY.
TOTAL POSITIONS OR WERE ALL OF
THE POSITIONS RETAINED. ALBEIT
NOT FILL.
ALL OF THAT WE WE ELIMINATED
THREE HUNDRED POSITIONS PER YEAR
OFF THE ROSTER PER YEAR. PER
YEAR.
THANK.
THANK YOU LET SIR ALEJO TO HAVE
A POSITION ON THIS ITEM SO HAS
VERY JUST DISCUSSING THE WEEK.
TO START SOME CONCERNS ABOUT THE
ACCURACY OF THE DTA WITH AND WE
THINK THAT THE GOVERNOR'S
EMPHASIS ON CRIME CONTRACTING
OUT IN THE BUDGET YEAR.
IS A GOOD APPROACH.
UNTIL THEY'VE WE HAVE MORE
CONFIDENCE THAT PERMANENT
POSITIONS ARE NEEDED.
WE WOULD SUGGEST YOU CONSIDER
FOCUSING PRIMARILY ON PROVIDING
CONTRACTING RESOURCES INSTEAD OF
PERMANENT STAFF FOR THAT REASON.
AND WE KNOW THAT THE COSTS FOR
THE TWO ARE ROUGHLY THE SAME.
WHEN YOU ADD IN ALL OF THE
INDIRECT COSTS THAT WE HAD
TALKED ABOUT A FEW WEEKS AGO TO
THE CITY AND STUFF.
A WE ALSO HAD COME TO ADDITIONAL
CONCERNS ONE RELATED TO THE%
SPACE STUDY THAT YOU WERE
REFERRING TO EARLIER.
WE REACHED OUT TO D. G. S. TASK
OF THE ESTIMATED THE ONE POINT
TWO MILLION DOLLAR COST AND WE
STILL HAVEN'T HEARD BACK.
AND AS YOU HEARD IT SOUNDS LIKE
THE DEPARTMENT IN TGS ARE STILL
NEGOTIATING THE SCOPE WORKS IT
MIGHT BE PREMATURE TO MOVE
FORWARD ON THAT FUNDING REQUEST
AT THIS TIME.
AND THE DEPARTMENT ALSO HAD
REQUESTED MILLION DOLLARS FOR
TRAINING FOR THE NEW STAFF TO
THE EXTENT YOU DO APPROVE NEW
STAFF WE THINK THAT FUNDING
SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED TERM
RATHER THAN ONGOING.
ON THIS NINETY TEN SPLIT I THINK.
THE TESTIMONY WAS THAT.
BY THE END OF JUNE NEXT YEAR WE
WE'RE GOING TO BE THERE BUT IF
WE GIVE US SOME FLEXIBILITY ON
THE MONTH PER MONTH WE'RE NOT
WITH THINKING IT'S A YEAR RATIO
NOT. A.
AND ABSOLUTE AT CHECK IN TIME
ARE HIGH SPOT TIME WOULD GIVE AN
OPINION ON THAT IS A.
COUNSEL US A LEGISLATIVE ACT AND
WE WE WOULD ACTUALLY.
RECOMMEND ONLY PROVIDING
CONTRACTING STAFF THAT THE
NINETY TEN SPLIT IS JUST A
TRADITIONAL SPLIT THERE'S
NOTHING IN A IT'S JUST IN THE
BUDGET ACT COM. UNDER THE STATE
CONSTITUTION IT COULD BE ANY.
RATIO THE LEGISLATURE DESIRES
THOMAS I MENTIONED THE COSTS ARE
A ROUGHLY COMPARABLE FOR STATE
STAFF AND CONTRACT STAFF SO.
CONTRACT STAFF ON PROVIDE SOME
FLEXIBILITY PRICKLY FORKLIFTS
CHANGING. OR IF THERE IS SOME
UNCERTAINTY ABOUT THE WORKLOAD
WHICH IS SOME ABOUT THE
MAGNITUDE WORKLOAD WHICH IS WHAT
WE'RE CONCERNED ABOUT WE THINK.
FOCUSING ON AT AND CONTRACTS
STAFF INSTEAD OF PERMITS STUFF
NIXON'S OKAY LET'S OPEN UP OUT
CENTER WIRELESS WITH QUICK FOR
THE ALEJO AND THINK YOU SYMMETRY
HOUSES. ITWHEN THE ITEMS WHICH
IS ASKING REGARD TEN IN TAKING A
LOOK AT YOUR. YOUR GRAPH IN
REGARDS A MONTHLY HIRING. YOU
SORT OF COMMENT ON THAT A BIT.
AND WHERE YOU SEE HIRING GOING
AS FAR AS NEW POSITIONS AS WELL
YEAH.
BASED ON THE LAST YEAR AS YOU
MENTION IT IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE
THEY HURT THEY DIDN'T IN ANY
MONTH ACHIEVE A HUNDRED NEW
HIRES.
AS YOU HEARD THEY ARE
IMPLEMENTING SOME NEW STRATEGIES.
.
IT'S HARD TO SAY WHETHER OR NOT
THAT WILL.
WORKS TO ACHIEVE THE THE
HUNDRED NEW HIRES TOM.
BUT AGAIN THE UNDER THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL THEY WOULD
HAVE THE FLEXIBILITY IF THEY
DON'T MEET THAT TARGET TIAS
CONTRACT. YEAH THINKS MUCH
GERMAN.
SMITH CENTER NIELSEN CIVIC ON
THAT NOTE CALTRANS. IT YOU
EITHER OF YOU IS THAT YOUR PLAN
THEN THE. SUGGESTION TO REDUCE
SOME CONTRACTING OUT. OR ARE YOU
GOING TO STAY THE WAY YOU'RE
DOING IT NOW.
WE CONTRACT OUT NOW AND WE CAN
WE WOULD CONTINUE TO DO THAT
BOTH FOR EXPERTISE AND AS WE
WERE ASKING FOR THE AT THE FILL
THE GAP.
WITH OUR. STATE INTO WHILE
WE'RE HIRING STATE STAFF.
WHAT WHAT WOULD YOU CHARACTERIZE
THE BIGGEST CHANGES IN YOUR
METHODOLOGY?
THE BILL HAS IMPROVED.
THE ABILITY TO HIRE AN
ANTICIPATE NUMBERS.
BUT WHAT. AND TO FILL THE
POSITIONS WHAT. MOST SIGNIFICANT
ELEMENTS OF THE NEW METHODOLOGY.
SO THAT THE HIRING CENTER I
WOULD ANTICIPATE IT LOOKS LIKE
WE'VE ONLY DONE IT ONCE NOW BUT
THAT WOULD BE A SUCCESSFUL MEANS
TO GO OUT TO THE UNIVERSITIES
AND. WE'LL SEE YOU NEXT WEEK WAS
SACRAMENTO STATE AS WELL.
AND INCLUDING GOING BEYOND THE
BORDERS OF CALIFORNIA WE DO
BELIEVE THAT.
OTHERS WILL ALSO FIND THAT
CALIFORNIAN CALTRANS DESIRABLE
PLACE TO LIVE AND TO WORK.
WILL YOU DO.
WORKSHOPS ARE. YOU ACTUALLY GO
INTO OTHER STATES TO RECRUIT
THEN. YES IT IS SO WE WOULD BE
MULTI PRONGED DOT DEPENDING ON
JUST THE HIRING CENTERS BUT YES
TO RECRUIT OUTSIDE.
.
INTO OTHER STATES AND
UNIVERSITIES.
BEFORE OF OF PUBLIC HEARING WE
ARE OUR RECOMMENDATIONS TO HOLD
THIS OPEN WE DO UNDERSTAND THAT
THEIR MEETING WHAT CDC TOMORROW
SO THAT THEY MAY HAVE A MORE.
DETAILED.
PLAN OF WHAT THAT WHAT THE WORK
IS GOOD THEY CAN TELL US ABOUT
THE PUBLIC HEARING THIS IS ISSUE
NUMBER. ONE.
FOR.
.
PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION CAPITAL
OUTLAY SUPPORT PROJECT DELIVERY
WORKLOAD COS.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN AND
MEMBERS STEVE BAKER WITH THEIR
NEW DISSOCIATES REPRESENTING THE
PROFESSIONAL ENGINEERS. IN
CALIFORNIA GOVERNMENT AND WE ARE
HERE IN OPPOSITION TO THE
ADMINISTRATION'S PROPOSAL WE
THINK THAT THE ADMINISTRATION'S
PROPOSAL. INCREASES OUTSOURCING
BY FAR TOO MUCH OF THESE ARE OUR
MEMBERS JOBS THAT WE'RE TALKING
ABOUT. HERE WE ARE WE'VE BEEN
CUT THIRTY SEVEN HUNDRED
POSITIONS THOSE ARE POSITIONS
THAT HAVE BEEN. PERMANENTLY
ELIMINATED AND NOW THAT S. B.
ONE COMES ALONG COMMON SENSE
DICTATES TO US IN TWO YEARS THAT
THERE'S MORE WORK. AND THERE'S
LOTS OF WORK AND IN ORDER TO GET
THE PROJECT DONE THE YOUR
CONSTITUENTS CARE ABOUT. IT'S
pGONNA TAKE REAL BODIES TO DO
THAT.
CURRENT BUDGET TODAY HAS TWO
HUNDRED AND FORTY MILLION
DOLLARS WORTH OF OUTSOURCING.
THE GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL. S.
SEEKS TO ADD ANOTHER HUNDRED AND
TEN MILLION DOLLARS TO THAT WE
DON'T THINK THAT NOW'S THE TIME
TO ADD EQUAL NUMBER OF
CONSULTANTS AS YOU DO. ENGINEERS
NOW'S THE TIME TO STAFF UP
ENGINEERS AND USE THE EXISTING
CONTRACT OUT SORT THAT OUT
SOURCING MONEY THAT YOU'VE GOT
HAS THE FLEXIBILITY WHILE THOSE
FOLKS WERE BROUGHT ON BOARD. AND
WE WOULD ASK YOU TO ADJUST THE
GOVERNOR'S PROPOSAL TO INCREASE
THE NUMBER OF STATE STAFF TO
DELIVER PROJECTS TO YOUR
CONSTITUENTS THANK YOU.
LET'S CLOSE PUBLIC HEARING.
.
BUT THE RECOMMENDATIONS TOLD US
OPEN. WILL BE BACK HERE ENTER
SAFE BUT ONE COUPLE THAT FROM
FOR NOW A. GOOD LOOK AT CDC BY
THIS MOVE OVER TO ACTIVE
TRANSPORTATION PROGRAMS THIS IS.
ITEM NUMBER TO PUT CALTRANS.
THIS IS TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN
AND JACKIE ARE F..
FOR ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION.
THE ONE THAT IS EXTEND PROBLEMS
GOT.
GOOD AFTERNOON STEVEN CHECK WITH
HER CALTRANS.
SO WE'RE ASKING FOR A AND
EXTENSION OF THE APPROPRIATION
PERIOD FOR THIS TEN MILLION
DOLLARS.
TO BE ABLE TO.
DELIVER THE ACTIVE
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS AND GET
THEM ALLOCATED BY THE COMMISSION.
THIS WAS A ONE TIME ALLOCATION
OF FUNDS AND A SPECIAL PROGRAM
WAS ADOPTED BY THE COMMISSION.
THERE ARE JUST THREE PROJECTS IN
THIS PROGRAM. TIED TO THOSE ARE
NEARING COMPLETION ONE COULD BE
ALLOCATED IN JUNE.
THE OTHER IN SOUTH LAKE TAHOE
WHO.
HAD BEEN DELAYED A LITTLE BIT
BY SOME SENSE OF ENVIRONMENTAL
ISSUES. BUT IT WILL BE.
READY TO ALLOCATE EARLY NEXT
FISCAL YEAR.
THE THIRD PROJECT IS THE SAN
GABRIEL VALLEY BIKE SHARE
PROGRAM AND THIS PROJECT IS
BEING RE EVALUATED BECAUSE OF
THE DISRUPTION IN THE MARKET.
WHAT WE'RE SEEING HERE IS THAT
NEW COMPANIES ARE COMING ON WITH
A BIKE SHARE PROGRAM THAT'S
CALLED BLOCKLESS AB BIKESHARE?
AND IT'S A NEW THING IT'S NEW TO
CALIFORNIA AND CSUS ACTUALLY NEW
IN THIS AREA.
THE ORIGINAL PROPOSAL WAS TO
USE A TRADITIONAL DOCKING SYSTEM.
THE DOC WAS BIKE SHARING PROGRAM
ALLOWS YOU TO PICK OF A BIKE
WHEREVER YOU CAN FIND ONE THERE
AROUND EVERYWHERE. DRIVE IT SITE
RIGHT IT TO WHERE YOU NEED TO GO
AND LEAVE IT THERE.
SO YOU WANT TO GO TO A SPECIFIC
POINT WHERE DOC IS AND THEN
MAYBE WALK FOR FIVE BLOCKS IT'S
MUCH MORE ATTRACTIVE THAN WE
THINK TO THE TRAVELING PUBLIC.
SO THIS PROJECT IS BEING RE
EVALUATED TO SEE IF THE SCOPE
NEEDS TO CHANGE TO TAKE THIS NEW
TECHNOLOGY INTO ACCOUNT.
SO WHAT WE'RE ASKING FOR IS TO
EXTEND THE APPROPRIATION TO
ALLOW THE. THE PROJECT SPONSOR
IN THE CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION
COMMISSION TO MAKE THAT ANALYSIS.
WITH ANY PROGRAM OF
TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS ARE
GOING TO SEE THE OCCASIONAL
SCOPE COST.
OR SCHEDULE CHANGE.
IT'S NOT UNUSUAL IT'S NOT.
AB PARTICULARLY UNIQUE TO ATP
PROJECTS.
SO IT'S HIGHLIGHTED HERE BECAUSE
THERE WERE AND IT WAS A SINGLE
TIME APPROPRIATION AND A SINGLE
TIME PROGRAM AND IS ONLY THREE
PROJECTS WHEN ONE OF THEM.
EXPERIENCE IS A DELAY WE NEED TO
COME BACK TO YOU FOR THIS.
UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES WITH
A STREAM OF PROJECTS IN A STREAM
OF FUNDING WE WORK TOGETHER. OFF
ON THE TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
AND OUR LOCAL PARTNERS TO ENSURE
THAT OUR FUNDING STREAM IS MATCH
OF A STREAM OF PROJECTS. WE CAN
HANDLE THESE DELAYS WITH OTHER
PROJECTS ADVANCES FROM OTHER
AREAS.
LEO.
BUT I THOUGHT HE KEY WITH THE LA
WE DON'T HAVE OUR
RECOMMENDATIONS PROPOSAL BUT THE
LEGISLATURE MIGHT WISH TO WAY
THAT BENEFITS OF ALLOWING THE
THOUGHT ALLOCATED FUNDS INTENDED
FOR THAT PROJECT IT'S NOW ONE
HOLDS TO REVERT TODAY GREENHOUSE
GAS REDUCTION FUND FOR USE ON
OTHER CHAIR OF PRIORITIES. IT
BUT IT SEEMS IT'S IT'S BEEN A
BIKE SHARE PROGRAM IN THERE THAT
THE FOCUSES HAD THESE.
KNOWLEDGE IS ARE CHANGING THAT
YOU CAN ACTUALLY LOCATE ON YOUR
PHONE WHERE IT ISN'T THERE A
LIME GREEN FOR GOD SAKES HARD
NOT TO FIND THEM ON THE STREET
SO.
.
ALRIGHT LET SOME QUESTIONS.
LET'S OPEN UP THE. UP PUBLIC
HEARING THIS IS ACT
TRANSPORTATION SET TEN MILLION
DOLLAR.
LEFTOVER. PARK CLOSE TO PUBLIC
TRANSPORTATION.
.
THE WAR.
WE DON'T THINK THIS IS.
PROBLEMATIC OF THE ATP PROGRAM
DEAD DESPITE ITS IS SPECIAL
CIRCUMSTANCES WITH THIS PROJECT
WITH THIS.
UNIQUE FUNDING THAT WE WE GAVE
YOU. IS THAT CORRECT YES.
OKAY WE'RE GONNA HOLD IT OPEN.
AND I THINK YOU VERY MUCH
PRESENTATION THANK YOU WE HAVE A
SOME.
TRAILER BILL.
PROPOSALS THAT SP ONE LOCAL
EXPENDITURES THIS IS ISSUE
NUMBER THREE.
OKAY.
YEAH DONE ISSUE NUMBER THREE IS.
HARM IT'S NOT A PROPOSAL FROM
THE GOVERNOR.
IT'S A PROPOSAL. FROM THE
COMMITTEE STAFF.
AND THERE'S THREE TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE AMENDMENTS THE FIRST
TOM OLIPHANT PERTAIN TO SP ONE.
THE FIRST UNDER SB ONE.
CITIES AND COUNTIES ARE ALLOWED
TO PROCEED WITH PROJECTS IN THEM
BE REIMBURSED FOR THEIR SB ONE.
FUNDING WITHIN THE FISCAL YEAR.
AND THIS WOULD MODIFY IT SUCH
THAT THEY COULD.
USE FUTURE S. B. ONE MONEY TO
GET REIMBURSED AS WELL.
THE SECOND PIECE WOOD EXEMPTS.
FROM SEQUEL A CERTAIN TRANSIT
PRIORITY PROJECTS.
THAT OUR AND SUSTAINABLE
COMMUNITIES.
STRATEGIES PLANS.
AND THE THIRD PIECE WOULD ALLOW.
UNDER SB ONE THERE'S A OR A
MAINTENANCE OF EFFORT
REQUIREMENT FOR.
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TIME TO
SPENDING THE SAME AMOUNT ON
STREETS AND ROADS AND NOT
SUPPLANT THE NEW MONEY.
FROM AS THE LINE AND. THIS WOULD.
ADD TO THAT AMMO WE THEIR
ABILITY TO USE.
SALES TAX REVENUES IN ADDITION
TO THEIR GENERAL FUND.
I'M.
SENATE MCGUIRE HAS QUESTION.
CORRECT THANK YOU SO MUCH.
AND THIS AND THAT TRAILER BILL
PROPOSAL SECOND BULLET.
SEQUEL EXEMPTION JUST WANT TO
KNOW WHERE THAT CAME FROM A.
ACTUALLY TO IF IT'S BILL HIGGINS
FROM I'M SORRY.
I KEPT SINCE IT CAME FROM MARS
IS IT OKAY IF I ANTI I REALIZE I
JUST JUMPED IN ON YOU.
BILL GO AHEAD APOLOGIZED A
BUILDINGS FROM THE CALIFORNIA
ASSOCIATION COUNCILS OF
GOVERNMENTS.
IF IT CAME FROM LAWS LOCAL
GOVERNMENT AND IT AND IT'S
ACTUALLY NOT STATED EXACTLY
CORRECTLY IN THE BULLET WHAT THE
IDEA BEHIND IT IS.
IS.
.
THERE ARE TWO PROGRAMS RELATED
TO THE CONGESTED CORRIDORS AND
THE TRADE CORRIDOR PROGRAMS THAT
ARE COMPETITIVE THAT ARE ONLY
COMPETITIVE TO.
AREAS THAT HAVE BEEN APPROVED
APS ARMY APPROVED DECSS OR
SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY STRATEGY.
IN SB THREE SEVENTY FIVE WHEN WE
DESIGNED A SEQUEL.
.
BENEFITS.
IT WAS FOR AND SCS.
FOR AN APRS THAT WAS APPROVED BY
THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD AND
OTHER WORDS OUR HOUSE TO BE A
PLAN APPROVED BY THE AIR
RESOURCES BOARD.
AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PS
AND NSC US.
IS THAT THE REGION HAS THE
RESOURCES TO MEET THE TARGET.
AND WE FELT WHETHER OR NOT YOU
HAD THE RESOURCES TO ACHIEVE THE
TARGET SET BY A OR B..
SHOULD NOT BE A DETRIMENT TO
APPLYING FOR THE FUNDS ARE
GETTING MORE RESOURCES TO
ACHIEVE THE TARGET PROVIDED YOU
HAVE A PLAN. APPROVED BY THE AIR
RESOURCES BOARD SO HOW MANY
REGIONS THAT ARE USING THIS
ALTERNATE FIND RIGHT NO WE JUST.
THOUGH THE ALL ALL REGIONS HAVE
GOT TO.
DE NESSIE THAT'S RIGHT NOW
THERE ARE EIGHTEEN MP THOSE ARE
ALL THERE.
.
THEY IT THE NEXT ROUND OF
TARGETS ARE.
GOING TO BE SET AND WILL START
HAVING A.
NEW PLANS BEING DEVELOPED OVER
THE NEXT THREE YEARS AND COMING
TO GIVE SO THAT IT MAY BE AN
ISSUE. AS WELL AS THE NEW HIGHER
TARGETS HAVE. BEEN RELEASED.
THE WEEK BUT THEY HAVEN'T
DEVELOPEDTHE ALTERNATIVE FIND
THEY'VE DONE SYSTEM THEY HAVE SO
FAR EVERYBODY'S BEEN ABLE TO DO
AS A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITY
STRATEGY RIGHT NOW. MERCED AND
MADERA.
IN AN EARLIER ROUND HAD TO DO
IN AP US AS PART OF IT BUT THEN
THEY BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE SAS
ROME. BECAUSE THEY WERE
PARTICULARLY IN THE CASE OF
MERCED.
THERE'S A LOT OF NEW RESOURCES
AVAILABLE THERE NOW THAT THEY
CAN ASSUME RELATED TO INTER
REGIONAL TRANSIT.
SO PRISON WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
TIME RIGHT YOU KNOW WE'VE GOT WE
JUST HAD THE.
CALTRANS IN HERE ABOUT PUSHING
OUT THE MONEY AND HIRING NEW
ENGINEERS EITHER CONTRACTORS.
WITH CALTRANS TO GET THEY WANT
TO PUSH IT OUT WHAT IS.
I AM TRYING I'M LOOKING THROUGH
THE LENS OF YOUR I SP THREE
SEVEN FIVE ON.
THIS
NEXT.
WHEN THE LOCAL EXPENDITURES
EXPENDITURES THAT THEY'VE LET'S
ASSUME THEY HAVE A SUSTAINABLE
PLAN.
ASSUME THAT THE AIRPORT SIGNS
OFF ON IT.
AND THAT DAY I'M.
HOW MUCH TIME IS ARE WE?
PICKING WHAT YOU EAT THIS COULD
COME UP A WE DO A UPDATED ARE
INSIDE THE ENCLOSED AN UPDATED
PLAN EVERY FOUR YEARS SO THIS IS
A PLAN THAT CAN REPEAT AND
THEY'RE ALL ON A ROLLING
SCHEDULE. SO IT'S NOT LIKE THEY
DO IT ALL AT THE SAME TIME
SANDBAG FOR EXAMPLE WILL ADOPT.
THE FIRST PLAN IN THE FOURTH
ROUND.
EARLY NEXT YEAR AND THEN
THEY'LL FOLLOW IN MIKE SIX EIGHT
MONTH INCREMENTS AND AND THEY GO
OVER A. THREE YEAR PERIOD AND
THEN THEY ALMOST START ALL NEW
AGAIN SO THEY'RE SPREAD OUT
ALMOST EVENLY OVER A FOUR YEAR
PERIOD. SUDDENLY ANY MOMENT IN
TIME.
ONE OF OUR MEMBERS IS ABOUT TO
GO DAY OUR BE. WITH A AT WITH.
A PLAN SO THIS IS A ROLLING
PROBLEM BECAUSE IT'S NOT WE'RE
NOT ALL SINK UP IN ONE LINE AND.
S. B. THREE SEVEN FIVE GAVE THEM
THAT AUTHORITY ERA IT'S AN
ALLOWED.
THAT PATERNITY YEAH AS ONE OF
THE ACTUALLY IS ONE OF PEOPLE
GOT TO WORK ON THE LANGUAGE IN
THAT. THE BILL IN DETAIL S. B.
THREE SEVENTY FIVE SAYS. IF
THERE IS A FEASIBLE WAY TO DO SO.
YOU MUST ADOPT A SUSTAINABLE
COMMUNITY STRATEGY.
BUT BECAUSE IT'S LATE BECAUSE
THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION PLAN
IS A FISCALLY CONSTRAINTS
DOCUMENT MEANING YOU CANNOT
ASSUME MONEY THAT IS NOT THERE.
THERE IS THE ALTERNATIVE
PLANNING STRATEGY ALTERNATIVE.
AND WHAT WE'RE SAYING AND WHAT
THIS IS SAYING AND WHAT WE DID
WITH THE SEQUEL OF PROVISIONS
RELATED TO THREE SEVENTY FIVE.
WE SAID EITHER IN AP US ORINDA
SCS IS OKAY BECAUSE BOTH OF HIS
A PLAN TO GET THERE AS LONG AS
THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD APPROVES
IT.
THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD THAT'S
THE GATEWAY HERE IS THE AIR
RESOURCES BOARD PASSED IT BUT
THE DIFFERENCE IS WHETHER THE
REGION HAS RESOURCES ARE NOW I.
AND THE WAY THE PROGRAM
STRUCTURED NOW.
THE POOR POOR REGIONS REGIONS
WILL MORE DISPARAGE COMMUNITIES
LESS RESOURCES REGION'S AREN'T
ELIGIBLE FOR FUNDING WHICH SEEMS
LIKE A UNJUST RESULT.
HOW LEóN YOU HAVE?
ANYTHING YOU WANT OF.
S..
WE'RE LOOKING AT BUDGET LANGUAGE
RIGHT NOW.
OF OVERLY FAMILIAR WITH THIS
PROPOSAL I. THINK IF I
UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY WHAT I'M
HEARING IS THAT FOR.
THAT TRADE QUARTERS PROGRAM AND
MAYBE SOME OTHER CITY ONE
PROGRAMS.
THE LANGUAGE WAS ORIGINALLY
WRITTEN.
SUCH THAT TOM. THE PROJECT HAD
BEEN A SUSTAINABLE COMMUNITIES
STRATEGY PLAN. AND THIS
AMENDMENT WOULD ALLOW TELL
SABEAN AND IN ALL YAKKING
ALTERNATIVE TO THAT WHICH IF IF
AUTHORIZED UNDER S. B. THREE
SEVENTY FIVE IF THEY ARE BE
APPROVES IT IT CAN'T JUST BE
NICE AND UNAPPROVED PLAN. OKAY.
SENATE MCGUIRE. THANK YOU SO
MUCH IN THIS ITEM SO.
.
WHATEVER PROJECTS TO QUALIFY FOR
THIS UNDER THIS.
EXEMPTION IF YOU DON'T THINK
IT'S AN EXEMPTION WHAT WOULD YOU
CALL IT SO SO IT'S THE WAY S. B.
THREE SEVENTY FIVE WORKS AND AND
AGAIN THE LANGUAGE IN THE THE
BULLET.
IT'S NOT EXACTLY PRECISE TO WHAT
WHAT WERE DESCRIBED AYE WHEN
SAYING THAT.
ELIGIBILITY UNDER THESE
CONGESTED CORRIDORS PROGRAM IN
THE TRADE CORRIDORS PROGRAM SO
YOU'RE APPLYING FOR A PROJECT.
LIKE.
THE.
YOU KNOW MAYBE THAT'S THE ONE
ON ONE CORD OR BECAUSE THERE'S A
PRETTY GOOD MOVEMENT OR
SOMETHING LIKE UNDER THE PREP
PROGRAM OR MAYBE IT'S HIGHWAY
THIRTY SEVEN JUST THINKING OF
YOUR REGION. SUPER REAL QUICK SO
JUST
WALKING THIS DOWN SO FOR USE IN
HIGHWAY THIRTY SEVEN WOODEN WHAT
IN WHAT IT'S AN EXPANSION
PROJECT.
IN WHAT TYPE OF ENVIRONMENTAL
REVIEW WOULD HAVE TO HAPPEN IN
WETLANDS YOU WOULD HAVE TO GO
THROUGH THE FULL SEQUEL REVIEW
THIS IS.
BUSY AGAIN THIS.
THIS IS GETTING MIXED UP WITH
SEQUEL AND PROJECT ELIGIBILITY
THREE SEVENTY FIVE SET UP FEE
QUELLED. A SEQUEL STREAMLINING.
FOR CONSISTENCY WITH THE PRODUCT
WITH THE WITHIN SCS.
WERE SAYING THAT.
PROGRAM COULD APPLY FOR THAT
FUNDING HIGH.
AND STILL WILL STILL HAVE TO GO
THROUGH ALL THE SEQUINED
EVERYTHING IT'S JUST.
WERE DRAWING THE PARALLEL
CONSTRUCTION TO WAITED THE WAY
THE LANGUAGE EXISTS IN THREE
SEVENTY FIVE THAT WERE IN THERE
SEEM TO BE AN OMISSION IN THE
LANGUAGE THAT'S ALL. IN FACT ALL
THE WORDS THAT WE PROPOSED.
MIRROR EXACTLY THE WORDS AND
THREE SEVENTY FIVE IT THINK WILL
BE HELPFUL.
IS SEEN THE LANGUAGE SO YOU
HAVE THE LANGUAGE THE LANGUAGE
IS SIMPLY ADDING AND IN UPON
ALTERNATIVE PLANNING STRATEGY
APPROVED BY A RB.
TO SIMPLY DO IT IT'S THAT I'M
HAPPY TO PROVIDE. BUT THAT'S
EXACTLY WHAT IT IS INDECENT.
BUT LET'S OPEN UP OF THE PUBLIC
HEARING PAT THIS IS. ISSUE
NUMBER THREE UNDER THE CALTRANS
DEPARTMENT.
.
BUDGET TRAILER LANGUAGE AND SB
ONE LOCAL EXPENDITURES PUBLISHED
CHAIRMAN OTHER MEMBERS POPULAR
SHUTTER INTO THE.
I'M HERE ALL I THINK ALL THREE
BULLETS ON PAGE TEN OF YOUR
COMMITTEE ANALYSIS ARE GREAT.
SPECIFICALLY BULLET NUMBER ONE.
IS SOMETHING THAT SEVERAL OF
OUR COUNTY CLIENTS WOULD AVAIL
THEMSELVES OF THERE ARE MAJOR
CHUNKS OF UNINCORPORATED PARTS
OF CALIFORNIA THAT COULD BE
REPAVED.
LITERALLY OVERNIGHT.
IF WE CAN JUST GET DOUBLE THE
NUMBER ONE CLARIFIED SO I WOULD
URGE SUBCOMMITTEE ADOPTION OF
THAT THANK YOU.
NICK'S.
GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIRMAN WAS OF
THE COMMITTEE RIGHT WE DO HERE
ON BEHALF OF THE CALIFORNIA
CITIES.
OCCUR WITHOUT MY COLLEAGUES AS
WELL A SUPPORTIVE OFALL THREE
BULLET POINTS HERE HAS PROPOSED.
SPECIFICALLY WANTED TO TALK
ABOUT ALL ABOUT THE THIRD BULLET
HERE WHICH WOULD ALLOW LOCAL
AGENCIES.
THE HOW TO APPLY TRANSPORTATION
SALES TAX REVENUE A TO BE
ACCOUNTED TOWARDS MEETING THERE
A MINUTES OF EFFORT RQUIREMENT.
AS AS A REQUIREMENT OF SP ONE
CITIES AND COUNTIES I'M HAVE TO
SPEND AN AVERAGE OF THE
FOLLOWING THREE FISCAL YEARS TWO
THOUSAND NINE. OTHER TWO
THOUSAND TWELVE UPON GENERAL
DISCRETIONARY FUNDS IN ORDER TO
BE ELIGIBLE FOR S. B. ONE
FUNDING.
ALL THIS WOULD SAY IS THAT.
FOR THOSE CITIES AND COUNTIES
THAT HAVE TAX THEMSELVES AYE
THAT THEY CAN APPLY.
THOSE MEASURES AYE AS COUNTING
TOWARDS OUR MINUTES ABOUT
REQUIREMENT WE THINK IT MAKES
GOOD PUBLIC POLICY SENSE.
IT'S SO THAT OUGHT MAKES THE
OTHER MAINTENANCE OR OTHER FUNDS
FROM SALES TAX THAT. EVERYBODY
GETS RIGHT HE'S JUST HE'S JUST
THE PORTION. IT WOULD IT WOULD
IT WOULD ALLOW YOU TO ME HERE.
TO COUNT THAT AS MEETING YOUR
MOE EXPENDITURE REQUIREMENTS
NEXT THANK YOU.
GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIRMAN
BECAUSE OF THE COMMITTEE KIANA
VALENTINE ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA STATE ASSOCIATION OF
COUNTIES IN SUPPORT OF ALL THREE.
BUDGET TRAILER BY PROPOSALS IN
FRONT OF YOU TODAY. TAKES.
OPENING WILL CLOSE PUBLIC
HEARING.
.
WE'RE GOING TO HOLD THIS MATTER
OPEN WE'VE GOT.
SOME HOMEWORK CHILDREN NEXT
FORTY EIGHT HOURS.
AND FIND OUT WHAT IT IS LET'S
MOVE TO THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY
PATROL. THIS IS ISSUE NUMBER ONE.
WE HAVE.
BUT.
WIRELESS IN CAR CAMERA SYSTEMS
WITH BODY WORN CAMERA.
EXPANDABILITY OPTION.
IF YOU MISTER CHAIR AND MEMBERS
OF THE COMMITTEE MY NAME IS
ASSISTANT CHIEF WHICH HAS BEEN
FROM THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY
PATROL. I FIRST WANT TO START
OUT BY APOLOGIZING ON BEHALF OF
COMMISSIONER MORE STANLEY HE
WHICH HE COULD BE HERE TODAY
HE'S IN WASHINGTON IN WASHINGTON
DC AT THE OUR NATIONAL PEACE
OFFICERS MEMORIAL. WE HAVE TO
OUR OFFICERS BEING ENROLLED IN
THE MEMORIAL WERE KILLED IN THE
LINE OF DUTY LAST YEAR SO.
I JUST WANTED TO EXTEND.
HIS REGRET TO YOU.
WE HAVE ONE MAY REVISE ITEM I
WOULD LIKE YOU TO CONSIDER. WERE
REQUESTING FIFTY TWO POINT FIVE
MILLION AND TWELVE INFORMATION
TECHNOLOGY POSITIONS PHASED IN
OVER THREE YEARS.
AS WELL AS A BUDGET AUGMENTATION
OF FOURTEEN POINT FOUR MILLION
FROM THE MOTOR VEHICLE ACCOUNT.
TO IMPLEMENT A WIRELESS IN CAR
CAMERA SYSTEM WITH THE OPTION TO
PURCHASE AN INTEGRATED BODY WORN
CAMERA SYSTEM IN THE FUTURE.
THE IMPLEMENTATION COSTS AND.
WILL BE PHASED IN AS FOLLOWS.
IN FISCAL YEAR EIGHTEEN NINETEEN
FOUR POSITIONS AND A LITTLE OVER
FIVE MILLION DOLLARS TO WRITE A
REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL. CONDUCT
PROCUREMENT CONFIGURE THE SYSTEM
AND TESTED A FIELD SITE.
IN FISCAL YEAR NINETEEN TWENTY
FOUR QUESTION FIVE POSITIONS AND
JUST UNDER TWENTY THREE MILLION
TO ROLL OUT THE IN CAR CAMERA
SYSTEM TO FIVE OF OUR NINE FEEL
DIVISIONS.
IN TWENTY TWENTY ONE THREE
POSITIONS AND TWENTY FOUR AND A
HALF MILLION TO DEPLOY. THE IN
CAR CAMERA SYSTEM TO THE
REMAINING FOUR FEEL DIVISIONS.
AND THEN FROM FISCAL YEAR TWENTY
WON THE TWENTY TWO AN ONGOING
AUGMENTATION OF A FOURTEEN POINT
THREE MILLION TO MAINTAIN THE
SYSTEM.
WE CURRENTLY HAVE AN IN COURT
SYSTEM THAT WAS IMPLEMENTED IN
TWO THOUSAND NINE. AND IS
ANTIQUATED AND QUICKLY BECOMING
OBSOLETE.
IT RELIES ON ACTUAL HARD DRIVES
THAT RECORD.
AN OFFICER'S ENCOUNTERS WITH
THE PUBLIC THROUGHOUT THE COURSE
OF THE SHIFT AT THE END OF EACH
SHIFT AN OFFICER MANUALLY
TRANSFERS WHAT'S ON THAT HARD
DRIVE TO DVD. SO JUST THAT THE
USE OF AN ACTUAL DVD SHOWS
OBSOLETE ALL THAT SYSTEM IS. ON
AND OFF FOR THE NIGHT TO TAKE
THAT EVEN HOOK IT INTO EVIDENCE
AT THE AT THE END OF EVERY SHIFT.
THE HARDWARE IN THIS CURRENT
SYSTEM IS FAILING IN THE VENDOR
BE ABLE TO SERVICE SAID.
AT THE END OF TWENTY EIGHTEEN.
AND OUR PROJECTIONS ARE AT AT
THE END OF THE YEAR.
ONLY ABOUT HALF OF OUR
ENFORCEMENT VEHICLES WOULD HAVE
A WORKING IN CAR RECORDING
SYSTEM.
WE REALIZE THIS IS NOT MEET THE
EXPECTATIONS OF PUBLIC POLICY
MAKERS CONTEMPORARY LAW
ENFORCEMENT AND THE PUBLIC WE
SERVE VERY COGNIZANT OF THAT.
IT'S BECOME WIDELY ACCEPTED PRO
WIDELY ACCEPTED PRACTICE FOR LAW
ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES ESPECIALLY
CALIFORNIA TO HAVE RECORDING
SYSTEMS THAT ACCURATELY DOCUMENT
INTERACTIONS BETWEEN THE POLICE
AND THE PUBLIC.
IT'S ALSO A PRACTICE THAT IS
SUPPORTED BY THE INTERNATIONAL
ASSOCIATION OF CHIEFS OF POLICE.
HOT WE BELIEVE IMPROVES OFFICER
SAFETY TRAINING TRANSPARENCY
ACCOUNTABILITY AND THE ABILITY
TO COLLECT EVIDENCE.
WITH THE NEW SYSTEM WE HOPE TO
HAVE EVERY IN FOR SOME VEHICLE
INCLUDING MOTORCYCLES.
EQUAL AND OR COMMERCIAL FORSMAN
VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AUDIO AND
VIDEO RECORDING CAPABILITY THAT
IS SIGNIFICANTLY BETTER IN
QUALITY THAT OUR CURRENT SYSTEM
IT'S MORE RELIABLE AND MORE
EFFICIENT.
S. AS PART OF THIS OUR REQUEST MEANING FUNDS LEFT OVER FROM
THE TWENTY FIFTEEN BUDGET ACT
FOR A BODY WORN CAMERA PILOT
SYSTEM.
A PILOT PROGRAM WE CONDUCTED A
ONE YEAR PILOT IN OUR OAKLAND IN
STOCKTON OFFICES ONE USED A.
CLOUD STORAGE.
SYSTEM AND ONE USED ACTUAL
LOCAL SERVER BECAUSE STORAGE
SYSTEM. AND THE THE PILOT
PROGRAM WAS SUCCESSFUL THE
OFFICERS.
ADDED BEEN RECEIVED VERY
FAVOURABLE REVIEWS FROM THE
OFFICE AND OF COURSE FROM THE
PUBLIC.
WE DO THINK THERE IS SOME VALUE
IN CONDUCTING ANOTHER YEAR OF
STUDY TO.
WORK THROUGH SOME OF THE POLICY
TECHNOLOGY ISSUES WE ENCOUNTERED
DURING THE PILOT AND GETTING
ANOTHER YEAR OF DATA WILL WILL
HELP US POP PREPARE FOR A STATE
FUTURE STATEWIDE DEPLOYMENT. AND
IN THE GOOD THING IS IS THAT THE.
IN CAR CAMERA SYSTEM THAT WE ARE
AYE EVALUATING AND WILL WILL
PURCHASE WILL BE ONE THAT CAN
EASILY INCORPORATE BODY WORN
CAMERAS AT SOME POINT IN THE
FUTURE AS WELL.
I'M WANTING ONE IMAGINE STAFF
MAKES NOTE THAT THERE ARE.
SOMEONE ANSWER QUESTIONS WITH
THE IMPLEMENTATION IN STAFFING
COSTS WITH A VERY DETAILED
BREAKDOWN OF A WORKLOAD MATRIX
THAT I'LL I'LL CERTAINLY SHARE
WITH YOUR STAFF AND I GET OLDER
TODAY ARE. CERTAINLY GET THAT TO
YOU.
AFTER THE HEARING TODAY HUB.
AND WITH THAT I THANK YOU VERY
MUCH FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION WILL
TAKE ANY QUESTIONS YOU HAVE.
LEO. SHAMMAI WITH THE
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE WE
DON'T TAKE ISSUE WITH A PROPOSAL
TO INSTALL IN CAR CAMERAS. IN.
THAT MARKED FOR SPENT VEHICLES
OVER THE NEXT THREE YEARS
HOWEVER THE OVERALL THE INITIAL
AT COSTS IN THE BUDGET YEAR FIVE
MILLION DOLLARS IS RELATIVELY
MODEST. WE NOTE THAT YOU'D BE
COMMITTING TO ONGOING
EXPENDITURES FOURTEEN POINT FOUR
MILLION DOLLARS THAT'S THE
REQUEST OF THE GOVERNOR ON THAT.
MBA.
USING THE FUNDS LOT OF THINGS
WITH THAT
YOU'RE GETTING TO A POINT THAT
YOU THINK BY TWENTY TWENTY ONE
WILL BE OUT OF MONEY OR BELOW
THE FIVE PERCENT.
THAT WAS PRECISELY ES THAT WAS
WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY NOW.
AND SO WE'RE RECOMMENDING THAT
YOU WAY APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSAL
AGAINST OTHER NBA SPENDING
PRIORITIES HOW ABOUT THE
ALUMINUM POP COSTS THAT WE'VE I
DON'T KNOW HOW THAT.
THE MAINTENANCE MONEY THAT
STATES HAS BEEN ALLOCATED ON A
SYSTEM THAT WE'RE GOING TO
DISCONTINUE I MEAN OUR WORK IT'S
GONNA JUST.
IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE IT'S
NATURALLY JOIN TO BREAK DOWN AND
BECOME OBSOLETE IF HALF THE CARS
ONLY COULD BE WORKING.
GLAD WE ENDED.
A WE PICKED A SUBPOENA VENDOR ON
THAT.
I DON'T WE'RE NOT WE'RE NOT
STOPPING THEM OKAY SO. NO.
I.
GOOD QUESTION SENATE MCGUIRE.
BECAUSE THE COMING IN I KNOW
THIS IS NOT RELATED TO THAT
CAPITA PATROL IN ONE THE ITEMS
IT. WOULD.
CONCERN WITH YOU BECAUSE IT IS
RELATED TO REGARD THE MOTOR
VEHICLE COUNT.
AND I KNOW THAT THE SYSTEM
CHIEF IS THAT REALLY THRILLED TO
BE ABLE TO COMMENT ON THIS I
WOULD ASK HIM.
BUT I I THINK THAT LOOK THAT WE.
THIS ACCOUNT IS BURDENED AND WE
ARE LOOKING AT GONE BELOW WHERE.
THERE IS SOME CONCERN IN
REGARDS TO FISCAL HEALTH AND WE
HAVE AN ADDITIONAL EIGHTEEN
MILLION POTENTIALLY.
CHARGE TO IT THROUGH CALVET
APARTMENT FISH AND WILDLIFE SO.
ALL I WOULD SAY IS THAT. CONCERN
REMAINS.
AS THERE IS GOING TO BE
SIGNIFICANT NEED ON THAT AND
AGAIN I WON'T ASK TO ASSISTANT
CHIEF TO BETTER COMING ON THAT

NOW THAT'S THE FAULT OF THE
LEGISLATURE.
BUT THAT'S NOT. KEEPING FAITH SO
THAT MONEY WILL BE LOCKED AWAY
FOREVER NEVER TO BE RETURNED.
FUTURE REVENUES MAYBE.

HIGHWAYS. THAT'S NOT KEEPING
FAITH AND THAT'S HAPPENING TOO
OFTEN AROUND THIS LEGISLATURE.

SEVENTY TWO HUNDRED SEVENTY TWO
C. GET.
TWENTY TWO MORE CORRECT.
HI WE'VE
WE AWAIT THE DECISION THANK YOU
VERY MUCH WE'RE GONNA CALL THIS
OPEN LET'S CALL UP THE FREE TIME
ENERGY COMMISSION.
THIS IS A I'M.
ENERGY RESOURCE PROGRAM ACCOUNT
STRUCTURAL DEFICIT RELIEF.
THE PURPOSE.
RIGHT GOOD AFTERNOON CHAIR
MEMBERS MY NAME IS DREW BONE I'M
THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF THE
CALIFORNIA ENERGY COMMISSION.
AND A PLEASE BE BEFORE YOU OF
THE SECTION AYE ANDERSON WE HAVE
TWO ISSUES BEFORE YOU THE FIRST
IS WHAT YOU JUST ARTICULATED THE
HERBA ACCOUNT THE ENERGY
RESOURCES PROGRAMS ACCOUNT.
AND WE'RE ASKING FOR AUTHORITY.
FROM THE LEGISLATURE TO SHIFT
FUNDS FROM A CERTAIN ACCOUNTS TO
OTHER COUNTS NO ONE I THINK YOUR
GUY. STEPPED IN A NICE JOB
PLAYING THE SOUND IN THE AGENDA
TWENTY BRIEFLY PROVIDE A LITTLE
BIT OF AN OVERVIEW AND A QUICK
HIGHLIGHTED WHAT WE'RE ASKING.
OVERVIEW OF FOR OVERVIEW
PURPOSES THIS HERB ACCOUNT IS
OUR PRIMARY FUNDING ACCOUNT OF
THE GOVERNMENT EDUCATION IT'S
BEEN AROUND FOR. FORTY YEARS AND
IT'S IT'S SERVED US WELL.
HOWEVER RECENTLY WE BECOME
VICTIMS OF OUR OWN SUCCESS
AS WE'VE DONE WELL IN REDUCING
ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN CALIFORNIA
BY.
EMPLOYING ENERGY EFFICIENCY
STRATEGIES AND AS WE'VE
INCREASED BEHIND THE METER
RENEWABLE ENERGY CONSUMPTION
THERE ARE OVER FIVE GIGABYTES
WORTH OF INSTALLED BEHIND THE
METER ENERGY.
MOSTLY SOLAR RENEWABLE ENERGY
IN CALIFORNIA.
CHIEFLY ROOFTOP SOLAR.
THIS HAS DRIVEN DOWN THE HERBA
REVENUES THAT ARE GENERATED
BECAUSE THAT REVENUES ARE TIED
TO THE THE AMOUNT OF MONEY FOLKS
PAY ON THEIR POWER BILLS.
SO. THE GOOD NEWS IS IT'S LED TO
CALIFORNIA HAVING THE LOWEST PER
CAPITA ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN THE
ENTIRE COUNTRY BY A BY ABOUT
FORTY PERCENT. THAT'S THE GOOD
NEWS THE BAD NEWS FOR US.
.
IS SIMPLY THAT IT'S REDUCED OUR
REVENUES AND SO WE'VE.
WHICH WE'VE HAD A.
UP BUT STRUGGLING A LITTLE BIT
LATELY AND IN ADDITION THE
LEGISLATURE HAS GRANTED US
ADDITIONAL AUTHORITIES OVER THE
LAST SEVERAL YEARS SO REVENUES
HAVE BEEN GOING DOWN.
IT REQUESTS TO DO ADDITIONAL
WORK HAVE BEEN GOING UP. SO WHAT
WE'RE PROPOSING FOR BUT TODAY IS
TO SHIFT.
A NUMBER OF POSITIONS FROM THE
HERBA ACCOUNT TO THE COIL
ACCOUNT THE COST OF
IMPLEMENTATION ACCOUNT THAT'S
MANNISH CHIEFLY BY THAT THE.
CALIFORNIA RESOURCES BOARD AND
THESE ARE FUNDS FOR CLIMATE
RELATED ACTIVITIES AND SO WE
IDENTIFIED. THEM. MANY OF OUR
ACTIVITIES THAT ARE CLIMATE
RELATED AND ARE SEEKING TO MOVE
SOME OF THE FUNDS FOR URBAN TO
THAT ACCOUNT.
THE SECOND LOOKING TO TO SHIFT.
MEAN THE THE THE THE THE DG ES
FUNDING DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES FUNDING THAT IS
CURRENTLY COMING OUT OF URBAN
THAT'S TWO MILLION DOLLARS.
OVER TO A ABOUT A DIFFERENT CUT
THE BERMAN A LICENSE PLATE FUND
AND.
THIRD WE'RE LOOKING TO CONVERT A
ONE.
.
OTHER SOURCE OF FUNDING WE HAVE
FROM FROM LICENSING POWER PLANTS
TO THAT OF THAT THAT STAFF THAT
WERE USING FOR THAT THOSE
ACTIVITIES ARE FUNDED OUT OF HER
BUT. INSTEAD MOVE THOSE TO THE
FEES THAT ARE GENERATED BY.
THOSE FEES THAT ARE ASSOCIATED
WITH A POWER PLANT LICENSES
LICENSE APPLICATIONS. FINALLY.
NOT THAT WE'RE ASKING THE
LEGISLATURE FOR AUTHORITY BUT WE
HAVE A WERE UP TO.
THAT NEAR THE LIMIT OF THE
AUTHORITY WE CAN. EXERCISE TO
INCREASE THE SURCHARGE THE URBAN
SURCHARGE WOULD INCREASE IT BY
FROM POINT ZERO ZERO ZERO TO
NINE POINT ZERO ZERO ZERO THREE.
THAT WILL GENERATE ABOUT TWO
POINT FIVE MILLION DOLLARS PER
YEAR WITH THOSE THREE ACTIVITIES
WE DO A WE GO A LONG WAY TOWARDS
CLOSING THE.
THE STRUCTURAL DEFICIT WE'RE
FACING RIGHT BUT THE STAFF
REPORT THE I MEAN IT'S THE COULD
REQUEST IS THAT YOU GO TO THE
CAP.
AND YOU THAT. LAWYERS LOVE TO
SAY ASSUMING ARGUENDO THAT
EVERYTHING'S RIGHT THE WAY YOU
HAVE IT WE'RE STILL SHORT.
IT'S NOT.
IT'S NOT UNUSUAL FOR THIS
ADMINISTRATION THE* FOR MORE
AUTHORITY. AND IN THE BUDGET
REQUEST.
AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS ONE IS
RATHER MINUSCULE IF YOU ASK FOR
ITS STATUTORY AUTHORITY TO RAISE
IT THREE.
TEN THOUSAND SUFFER DECIMAL THAT
WOULD COST I THINK THERE STAFF
REPORT TALKS BUT IT COULD THIS
IS RAISING THIS ONE.
TEN THOUSANDTH I GUESS IS A TEN
THOUSAND. BY ONE TENTH TIME
THOUSAND IS SEVEN CENTS ON THE
CUSTOMERS.
.
OVER THE COURSE OF THE YEAR
THAT'S RIGHT.
WHEN SOMEBODY MAY NOTICE THAT
SEVEN CENTS.
BUT DUFFEL NOT REALLY NOT REALLY
SO IF IF YOU BASS FOR THREE
CENTS.
BUT STATES TWENTY CENTS THAT
WOULD THAT WOULD SOLVE THE
PROBLEM THE BUDGET PROBLEM AT
LEAST GIVEN THE SIX
IT'S AN UNUSUAL PRESENTATION YOU
MADE BECAUSE OF THE SUCCESS THAT
WE HAVE ON. ENERGY CONSERVATION
THE BECAUSE OF THE LIMITATIONS
YOU HAVE BECAUSE OF ALL THE
OTHER STUFF YOU WANTED TO DO
WERE.
IT IT IT DOESN'T COMPLETELY FIX
THE PROBLEM GETS ITS A LONG WAYS
ADMITTEDLY WRITE Y. WHAT MIGHT I
FIX IT.
WELL YOU ASKED US LAST YEAR TO
PUT THE OF THE REPORT ON SOME
OPTIONS WHICH WE DID.
WE SUBMITTED THAT TO THE
LEGISLATURE RECENTLY AND WE
EXPLORED A RANGE OF OPTIONS
INCLUDING.
ASKING THE LEGISLATURE RAISE
THE FEE BUT WE FELT THAT AT THIS
TIME BY DOING THE MEASURES WERE
RECOMMENDING. THIS THIS PUSHES
US OFF TO THE STRUCTURAL DEFICIT
OFF A FIVE YEARS AND.
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT OTHER
THINGS WE CAN DO SHORT OF
RAISING THAT FEE THAT COULD.
COULD ALSO PUSH THAT EVEN
FURTHER OUT.
ELIOT. BUT DO YOU THINK ABOUT
THIS TWELVE MILLION DOLLARS.
ANNUAL DEFICITS AND THE PROPOSAL
RATHER REPRESENTS A SIGNIFICANT
STEP AND TOWARDS ADDRESSING. THE
FUND BALANCE OR EXCUSE ME THE.
STRUCTURAL DEFICIT IN THE FUND
AND WE THINK THE PROPOSED
CHANGES ARE ALL REASONABLE.
WE JUST WENT OUT THE THE ISSUE
THAT YOU JUST HIGHLIGHTED MISTER
CHAIR THAT THERE STILL IS. A
REMAINING ROUGHLY THREE MILLION
DOLLAR PER YEAR AYE IMBALANCE
ANNUALLY AND.
THAT WOULD PROJECT OUT TO A
KIND OF THE.
FUND INSOLVENCY IN THE YEAR
TWENTY TWENTY TWO TWENTY THREE
SO.
WITHIN THE NEXT SEVERAL YEARS
THE LEGISLATURE MAY HAVE TO MAKE
SENSE TAKE SOME ADDITIONAL
ACTIONS. AND THE NEXUS BETWEEN
ALL THE DIFFERENT. RENEWABLE
FUELS TECHNOLOGY COUNT AND ALL
THOSE ARE SATISFIED.
THAT THERE'S THERE'S OF
REASONABLE. THAT NIGHT THEY ALL
SING REASONABLE TO US YES OKAY.
LET'S OPEN UP PUBLIC HEARING
OTHER MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT
ARE HERE.
FOUND THE STRUCTURAL DEFICIT.
RELIEF ACT OF TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN FOR PART OF ENERGY.
NO HEART WILL CLOSE IT QUESTIONS.
I'D THE.
WHAT WE'RE GONNA HOLD THIS
MATTER OPEN ARMS?
REFLECTING
IF YOU LIKE THAT FROM MY
THOUGHTS ON IT LET'S MOVE TO.
THE FIELD OF AGRICULTURE.
AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY PROGRAMS
ISSUE NUMBER TWO. RATE.
THIS ISSUE AS A REQUEST FOR
THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS IN
GENERAL FUND A THIRTY FOUR WHAT
WE'RE CALLING THE FOOD
PRODUCTION INVESTMENT PROGRAM.
IN THIS IS TO FIND INNOVATIVE
CLEAN ENERGY PROJECTS IN THE
FOOD PRODUCTION INDUSTRY THIS IS
A LARGE INDUSTRY CALIFORNIA IT'S
ABOUT AN EIGHTY TWO BILLION
DOLLAR A YEAR INDUSTRY EMPLOYS.
A COUPLE HUNDRED THOUSAND FOLKS
IN CALIFORNIA IN DIRECT JOBS OF
SEVERAL HUNDRED THOUSAND MORE AN
INDIRECT JOBS.
AND THE LAST YEAR THE
LEGISLATURE APPROPRIATED SIXTY
MILLION DOLLARS FOR THIS PROGRAM
AND SINCE THAT TIME WE'VE BEEN
WORKING VERY CLOSELY WITH THE
INDUSTRY AND OTHER STAKEHOLDERS
TO. BUILD THIS PROGRAM AND WE'RE
JUST ABOUT READY TO PUT OUT THE
SOLICITATION THAT WILL. REQUEST
FOLKS ARE APPLY FOR FUNDING
UNDER THIS PROGRAM IN THE
GOVERNOR'S JAN TEN BUDGET WE
REQUESTED AN ADDITIONAL THIRTY
FOUR MILLION DOLLARS THESE ARE
ALL FROM.
GIRAFFE IN THIS REQUESTED MAY
REVISE HIS FOR THIRTY MILLION
ADDITIONAL.
IN THIS IS BORN OF THE
CONVERSATIONS WE'VE BEEN HAVING
WITH THE INDUSTRY OVER THE LAST
SEVERAL MONTHS AND THE HUNDREDS
OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF
PROJECTS THEY.
HAVE IDENTIFIED THAT ARE OUT
THERE AND ARE WORTHY OF FUNDING
SO THIS BUMPS IT UP A BIT.
THESE FOLKS UNDERNEATH THE CAP
ANYWAY. ARE THEY UNDER THE THAT
THE CAP THAT THEY HAVE TO MAKE
THESE CHANGES TO THEIR. UP
POLLUTING.
MA.
BOB BUSINESSES ABOUT FEET JUST
SHY OF FORTY OF THEM ARE OF THE
INDUSTRY HAS MANY MORE PLAYERS
THAN THAT BUT THE LARGER OF THE
LARGEST.
THIRTY EIGHT OR FORTY OF THEM
ARE UNDER THE CAP.
THE CONCERN IS THAT THERE THE
PRESSURES THAT THE INDUSTRY
LOCALLY HERE IN CALIFORNIA IS
FEELING VIS A VIS OTHER STATES
AND OTHER COUNTRIES. IS SUCH
THAT GO SUPPORTING THEM
FINANCIALLY AND BEEN REDUCING
COSTS THROUGH.
THROUGH THESE PROGRAMS AND
THEREBY REDUCING GREENHOUSE
GASES IS A GOOD INVESTMENT BUT
DOESN'T IT HERE RESOURCE BOARD
DIRECTORS GENEROUSLY ALLOW FREE
ALLOWANCES FOR THIS INDUSTRY.
AREN'T WE WE'VE HAD I HAD
HEARINGS OVER THAT IN THE.
HER GENEROSITY TO PROTECT
CERTAIN.
BUSINESSES HAS BEEN LEGENDARY
IN THIS FIELD. BESIDES SIXTY
MILLION DOLLARS PART WILL IT
SELL. HERE FROM THE LA HEALTH.
HOPE WERE RECOMMEND THE
LEGISLATURE REJECT THIS PROPOSAL.
FIRST THE CC ONLY RECENTLY
FINALIZED THE FUNDING GUIDELINES
FOR THE SIXTY MILLION GTR
ESTAMOS ALLOCATED IN THE CURRENT
YEAR AND IT LOOKS LIKE THEY
DON'T EXPECT TO MAKE THE ACTUAL
WORDS UNTIL LATER THIS FALL. AND
SO IT'S NOT QUITE CLEAR EXACTLY
WHAT THE.
BENEFITS ESTIMATED BENEFITS
FROM ALL THOSE PROJECTS WILL BE
AND SO.
THAT'S ONE REASON THE SECOND IS.
IF THE LEGISLATURE CONSIDER
THESE PROJECT A HIGH PRIORITY
THAN OTHER FUND SOURCES ARE
AVAILABLE NAMELY GREENHOUSE GAS
REDUCTION FUNDS THE LEGISLATURE
COULD REALLOCATE SOME OF THOSE
FUNDS CITIES ACTIVITIES AFFAIR A
HIGH PRIORITY. JUST FOR CONTEXT
AS SHE DIED YOU'RE LIKELY WELL
AWARE THE GOVERNOR'S PACKAGE
INCLUDES.
CONTINUES APPROPRIATIONSAS
WELL AS DISCRETIONARY SPENDING
OF ROUGHLY TWO POINT EIGHT
BILLION DOLLARS IN GTR A FUNDS
AND SO THE LEGISLATURE HAS THAT
OPTION AS WELL.
THE GOVERNOR HAS ASKED FOR
THIRTY FOUR MILLION FOR THIS
THIS PROGRAM AND AND THAT HE'S
AUGMENTING LOOK LIKE IT WAS AT A
CUT IN HALF.
BUT NOW I GUESS IT'S A LITTLE.
THREE PERCENT RAISE OR WHATEVER
TWO PERCENT. OR PERCENT RAISE
OUR RIGHT.
THANK YOU LET'S OPEN UP THE
PUBLIC HEARING UP MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC.
THAT ARE INTERESTED AN
AGRICULTURAL ENERGY EFFICIENCY
PROGRAMS YES MICHAEL BROKEN OR
ONLY HALF THE CALIFORNIA POULTRY
FEDERATION FOSTER FARMS IN THE
AG ENERGY.
CONSUMERS THOSE ASSOCIATION
STRONG SUPPORT WE HAVE WORKED
WITH THE.
THE ENERGY COMMISSION ENVELOPING
THE NEW PROGRAM IT'S HIGHLY
CRITICAL WE TRY AND ADDRESS
THOSE APPOINT THE CHAIRMAN
RAISED ABOUT THE FACT THAT SOME
OF THESE COMPANIES ARE IN FACT
UNDER THE CAP.
A THESE ARE ALSO HIGH POTENTIAL
LEAKAGE
COMPANIES
SO IF WE DON'T PROVIDE SOME
SUPPORT TO THEM THEY WILL MOVE
OPERATIONS OUT OF STATE AND
THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE'RE
TRYING TO AVOID. UNDER THE CAP
AND TRADE PROGRAMS OF THIS
PROGRAM COULDN'T BE MORE
CRITICAL THESE BUSINESSES FACE
AN ENORMOUS COMPETITION FROM OUR
OUT OF STATE.
I COMPETITORS WHO DON'T FACE
MANY OF THE SAME IMPACTS THE CAP
AND TRADE PROGRAM IS JUST A
PIECE OF IT THEY'RE ALSO FACING
MUCH HIGHER COSTS. FROM CLIMATE
POLICIES IN CALIFORNIA THAT
INCREASE OUR ENERGY RATES WOULD
INCREASE OUR FUEL RATES AND
INCREASE OTHER THINGS THAT MAKE
US LESS COMPETITIVE. SO IF WE
DON'T DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS
THESE COMPANIES ARE SIMPLY GOING
TO MOVE OPERATIONS FOSTER IS A
GREAT EXAMPLE THEY ALREADY HAVE
OPERATIONS. UP ON THE PACIFIC
NORTHWEST IN LOUISIANA THEY CAN
SHIFT PRODUCTION ELSEWHERE IF WE
DON'T PROVIDE SOME RELIEF TO
THESE COMPANIES SO IT'S A
CRITICALLY IMPORTANT PROGRAM. WE
THINK THE ENERGY COMMISSION HAS
DONE A FANTASTIC JOB OF
DEVELOPING IT AND IT IS GOING TO
BE GREATLY OVERSUBSCRIBED THANK
YOU.
THANK YOU NEXT.
AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS TRICIA GERINGER WITH
AGRICULTURAL COUNCIL CALIFORNIA
ALSO VERY STRONGLY IN SUPPORT OF
THIS.
ADDITIONAL ITEM OUR PRESIDENT
HAS BEEN A PART OF THE TASK
FORCE AND STAKEHOLDER GROUP
CREATING THIS UP PROGRAM. OUR
OUR FOOD FOOD PROCESSORS THAT
ARE IN AND OUTSIDE OF THE GUY
CAP AND TRADE PROGRAM.
OFTENTIMES DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO
FUNDS ON IT AND WERE ABLE TO
COMPETE FOR DOLLARS AND SO
THAT'S WHY THIS PROGRAM WAS
CREATED LAST YEAR. AND WE VERY
MUCH APPRECIATE THE GOVERNOR AS
LEASING THIS ADDITION IN HIS
BUDGET ALSO THE REASON. WE'RE
VERY STRONGLY IN SUPPORT OF THIS
IS FOOD PROCESSORS ARE A LITTLE
BIT DIFFERENT WE CANNOT AND DO
NOT AND NEITHER TO FARMERS THAT
THE PRICE OF FOOD. BUYS THAT
SIDELINE YOU KNOW INTERNATIONAL%
DOMESTIC MARKET AND AS A RESULT
WE ABSORB THESE COSTS REGULATORY
COSTS LIKE OTHER INDUSTRIES THAT
CAN PASS THOSE ALONG WE DON'T SO
THAT IS WHY VERY STRONGLY
SUPPORT DAIS THAT THERE HAS BEEN
A TRADITION IN THIS INDUSTRY.
SENECA FOODS IS CLOSING A PLANT
IN MODESTO CAMPBELL'S CLOSED
HERE IN THIS REGION A FEW YEARS
AGO. IT IS A REAL ITEMS THAT WE
HOPE THAT YOU'LL CONCERT THE
STATE PROBABLY THINK YOU SO MUCH
UNIX.
GOOD AFTERNOON TO YOU MISTER
CHAIRMAN RICHARD HIS OF THE
CALIFORNIA LEAGUE FOOD PRODUCERS
REPRESENTING THE FOOD PROCESSING
INDUSTRY IN CALIFORNIA I WOULD
JUST ECHO THE COMMENTS ON MY
COLLEAGUES ON ABOUT THE COSTS
ASSOCIATED WITH DOING BUSINESS
HERE IN CALIFORNIA. I THINK IT'S
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT SOME OF
MY MEMBERS ARE GLOBAL IN NATURE
IN WHEN THEY'RE LOOKING AT WHERE
TO SOURCE AND WHERE TO PLACE
THEIR PROCESSING PLANTS.
CALIFORNIA HAS A LOT COSTS
ASSOCIATED YES IT'S GOT SOME
WONDERFUL GROWING CONDITIONS BUT
SO TO SPAIN SO DO A LOT OF OTHER
REGIONS OF THE WORLD WITH A
COULD BE AYE SOURCING THEIR
TOMATOES AND OTHER PRODUCTS SO.
IT'S IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE
CUMULATIVE IMPACTS OF THIS
REGULATIONS ON CALIFORNIA
BUSINESSES AND ESPECIALLY ON
FOOD PROCESSING ON REALLY DOES
ADD UP SO WE APPRECIATE. ALL THE
FUNDING THAT THE GOVERNOR HAS
PROPOSED WE STRONGLY SUPPORT
THAT ON AND YOU JUST IT IT HELPS
US COME INTO COMPLIANCE WITH THE
CAP AND TRADE PROGRAM IT ALSO
HELPS. THAT HELPS US REDUCE OUR
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS AND I
KNOW THAT THE COMMITTEE HAS
ASKED FOR WHAT IS A A POSSIBLE
ESTIMATE FOR REDUCTIONS IN
GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS. UP
PURSUANT TO SOME POTENTIAL
PROJECTS
A I CAN TELL YOU THAT WE HAVE
WE'VE COME UP WITH A ROUGH
ESTIMATE PLEASE TOYOTA PUT TO
MUCH PRESSURE ON ME A BOOK BASED
ON A SIXTY MILLION DOLLAR
FUNDING AND ASSUMING THAT THE.
AVERAGE.
COST PER TON OF.
REDUCING OR REMOVING GREENHOUSE
GAS EMISSIONS ABOUT FORTY FIVE
DOLLARS PER METRIC TON WHICH IS.
BASICALLY THREE TIMES THAT THE
CURRENT OPTIONAL LEVELS I
UNDERSTAND IT I'M WE'RE LOOKING
AT A AT A POTENTIAL SAVINGS ARE
POTENTIAL REMOVAL OF ONE POINT
TWO MILLION DOLLAR METRIC
MILLION METRIC TONS. SO I THINK
THAT IF WE CONTINUE TO FIND AT
THIS AT THIS A LEVEL AND IT'S
GONNA CONTINUE TO REDUCE
GREENHOUSE GASES ON AND HELP
FUND A LOT OF PROBE PROJECTS
THAT I MAY NOT BE A. GRANTED
OTHERS THIS YEAR SO WE WANT TO
KEEP THIS PROGRAM ROBUST AND
MOVING FORWARD SO THANK YOU.
BUT I THINK THE AUCTION IS GOING
ON RIGHT NOW. IT THIS WE SPEAK
SO WILL BE PAYING CLOSE
ATTENTION TO THAT.
PLEASE NEXT BUT AFTERNOON NOEL
CREAMERS AT THE CALIFORNIA FARM
BUREAU FEDERATION OUR MEMBERS
ARE ARE SELLING THEIR PRODUCTS
TO FOOD PROCESSORS AND SO WE
WANT TO MAKE SURE. THAT THE FOOD
PROCESSORS REMAIN IN THE STATE
THEY DON'T MOVE OUT A STATE IN
THIS PROGRAM WHICH WE STRONGLY
SUPPORT WILL HELP AND PROVIDE
FUNDS TO MAKE THEM MORE
UNCOMPETITIVE. AND WILL REMAIN
OPEN AND AVAILABLE TO PURCHASE
OUR PRODUCTS.
THAT'S ALL WE HONOR WE HAVE THE
CALIFORNIA GRAIN AND FEED
ASSOCIATION THE PACIFIC EGG AND
POULTRY ASSOCIATION AND THE
ALLMAN ALLIANCE. THAT WE
ASSOCIATE OURSELVES OF THE
EARLIER COMMENTS THANK YOU.
GOOD AFTERNOON AND MISTER CHAIR
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE LARA
KNOWING TJ COUNTY HALF OF
CALIFORNIA CONGENERS IN GROWERS
ASSOCIATION CALIFORNIA TOMATO
GROWERS ASSOCIATION. AND
CALIFORNIA DAIRY SINK IN STRONG
SUPPORT OF THIS ISSUE I AM I AM
IN MY COMMENTS WITH MY
COLLEAGUES AHEAD OF ME AND JUST
ADD TO THAT.
AS IT WAS SAID WE ARE PRICE
TAKERS NOT PRICE MAKERS AND
SOMETHING TO NOTE OF THAT AS
MANY OF THESE PROCESS SEEING
FACILITIES ARE LOCATED IN
DISADVANTAGED COMMUNITIES AND
OFFER. A WIDER RANGE OF JOBS TO
THOSE COMMUNITIES SO THESE
PROCESSING FACILITIES ARE VERY
IMPORTANT TO THOSE COMMUNITIES.
I'M SOME OF THE PRODUCTS BUT I
PROJECTS THAT THERE ARE STILL
LOOKING AT THEY HAVE GREENHOUSE
GAS REDUCTIONS BUT ALSO MAY HAVE
CRITERIA CLEAN REDUCTIONS ARE
KIND OF GETTING A.
YOU KNOW THE TWO FOR ONE AND.
THOSE DEALS AND SO THIS FUNDING
IS GOING TO BE VERY IMPORTANT
AND ALLIES FARM BUREAU STATED.
IF OUR PROCESSES ARE LEAVING THE
STATE THAT HAS A BIG IMPACT ON
THOSE WHO ARE PRODUCING THE
PRODUCT THAT THEN GOES TO THOSE
PROCESSORS
SO IT'S GOING TO HAVE A RIPPLE
EFFECT IF WE DON'T.
FIND THESE FINES AND HELP THEM
COMPLY.
WITH S. B. THIRTY TWO IN WITH
SOME OF THE OTHER REGULATORY
COSTS THAT THEY HAVE.
YOU.
CENTER IELSEN PART WILL CLOSE
THE PUBLIC HEARING THOSE PUB.
MEASUREMENT INFESTING MY BIASES
OF.
PERSON WHO SPENT THEIR WHOLE
LIFE IN AGRICULTURE I WILL
ATTEST TO THIS NEED.
FOR THIS INDUSTRY.
YES AGRICULTURE'S GOTTEN SOME
HELP OVER THE YEARS.
BUT IT PALES IN COMPARISON TO
SOME INDUSTRIES THAT WE SUPPORT
SUCH AS SOLAR.
AND INDEED IT BECAUSE OF THE
NEED FOR THE PROCESS.
AND THE FACT THAT IS NOT ALL
THAT HARD TO MOVE PROCESSING TO
OTHER STATES AND IN EVEN. THIS
CASE PRODUCTION.
WE'RE LOSING OVER A HUNDRED
DAIRIES THE SHUTTING DOWN AND
LEAVING CALIFORNIA.
A YEAR.
THAT'S SERIOUS BUSINESS.
COST TO THE STATE.
DISPLACEMENT.
BOB JOBS.
AND THE OPPRESSIVE BURDEN OF
REGULATIONS.
AND THE COST THEREOF. CONTINUE.
TO DESCEND UPON THIS INDUSTRY.
MAKING IT VERY VERY DIFFICULT.
FOR THEM TO PRODUCE.
YEAH Y. THINK THIS IS THE
AGRICULTURE ENERGY EFFICIENCY
PROGRAM SO I WOULD IMAGINE THAT
SOME OF THESE PROJECTS WOULD BE
TO PUT SOLAR ENERGY ON THE
PROCESSING. EQUIPMENT OR GARY
MANEUVER CONVERSION SO THAT THEY
REDUCE THEIR ENERGY THAT THEY'RE
THERE AND THEY'RE ENERGY THAT
THEY NEED TRYING IT'S NOTHING
CONVERSION FOR EXAMPLE THAT'S
THAT'S VERY HELPFUL BUT IT HAS
NOT SAVED OUR DAIRIES THEY'VE
BEEN MORE HARM TO BY THE WAY STE
DISCHARGED FEES AND FINES THAN.
BY FAR.
AND AND SOME OF JUST LITERALLY
BEEN PUT OUT OF BUSINESS BY THE
FINES.
OKAY.
STAFF RECOMMENDATION IS TO HOLD
WE HAVE UNTIL. THURSDAY.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
SPRING ON THE EPA. YOU.
.
WE LEARNED. ALL ABOUT MORE THAN
I CARE ABOUT ABOUT CUBICLES.
AND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AN
EIGHT BY TEN AND A SEVEN BY
SEVEN.
IN. TWENTY TWO FLOORS OR TWENTY
THREE FLOORS HOW BIG IS THAT
BUILDING.
WE FIVE TWENTY FIVE FLOORS.
SO DO PEOPLE WORK AT THE SAME
EFFICIENCY LEVEL AT.
SEVEN BY SEVEN CUBICLES VERSES
EIGHT BY TEN THE SEVEN SO WE
MUST HAVE A STUDY ON THAT. WHAT
YOU NEED FOR YOUR PHYSICAL SPACE?
OPTIMIZE YOUR.
EPA.
I DON'T TURN UP FOR THE RICH
ERIK JARVIS CALLIE PA.
I DON'T HAVE ANY DATA ON THAT
BUT FROM A MANAGEMENT
PERSPECTIVE THE ANSWER SHOULD BE
YES.
I BELIEVE AND I KNOW NOW PEOPLE
ARE. LOOKING AT COLLABORATIVE
ENVIRONMENTS
WERE I IN ON THE AREA THAT I
REPRESENT THE. YOU KNOW IN IN
BEING IN THE.
WHO LAW BUSINESS THAT YOU TEND
TO HAVE YOUR OFFICE WITH YOU
DOOR AND AND THESE THINGS AND
THEY LOOK AT?
YOU KNOW THESE.
DIFFERENT ACTIVITIES THAT GO ON
THAT THEY'RE IN A COLLABORATIVE
ENVIRONMENT SO THEY'RE NOT
ACTUALLY THERE BUT YOU HAVE A
PRESENTATION ON. ON.
ALL THE PEOPLE THAT THEY'RE IN
THE EPA BUILDING AND AND WHAT
YOUR PLAN IS PLEASE PROCEED
SERBIA THANK YOU. AGAIN GOOD
AFTERNOON I'M SURE MEMBERS ERIK
JARVIS CALLIE PA WITH ME TODAY I
HAVE TOM ESTES THE DEPUTY
DIRECTOR OF ROUTE OF
ADMINISTRATION FOR CAO RECYCLE.
TOM WAS ONE OF THE CO AUTHORS OF
THE PROPOSAL AND IS HERE TO HELP
ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT
HAVE BEEN SPECIFIC QUESTIONS.
BUT AS YOU NOTED DID THEIR
GENDER DESCRIBES OUR PROPOSAL
ACTUALLY AND I UNDERSTAND THE
RECOMMENDATIONS TO HOLD THE
SADDAM OPEN SO. I I WILL BE
BRIEF MY COMMENTS OTHER THAN TO
UNDERSCORE A FEW KEY POINTS THAT
WE HOPE MIGHT HELP US OBTAIN
APPROVAL AT A LATER.
WENT ONE TAKE WAY WE HOPE YOU
YOU YOU HAVE WHEN YOU WE ARE
PROPOSAL IS THAT THIS PROJECT
WILL IMMEDIATELY.
REDUCE THE NEED FOR ADDITIONAL
SPACE AND WILL IMMEDIATELY SAVE
MONEY FOR TO THE STATE AND
COUNTY AS A WHOLE.
DOT LIKE TO POINT OUT THAT THIS
PROPOSAL IS CONSISTENT WITH THE
GOVERNOR'S AYE EXECUTIVE ORDER
FROM A FEW YEARS AGO THAT WE
WERE ALL STATE AGENCIES WORK FOR
THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES.
TO MAXIMIZE OUR SPACE REDUCED
LEASE SPACE OB.
FACILITIES THROUGHOUT THE STATE
AND OPTIMIZES SPACE WITH THE
GOAL OF REDUCING OVERALL SQUARE
FOOTAGE BECAUSE THOSE COSTS WERE
GETTING QUITE AYE. MOM THAT I
WANT TO EMPHASIZE.
THE OPTIMIZATION A SPACE SUIT
WITH WHAT YOU STARTED WITH.
OR BUILDINGS QUITE QUITE
LARGEST AS TOM MENTIONED IT'S
IT'S TWENTY FIVE FLOORS HAS A
PRETTY BIG FOOT. AND AS YOU
MIGHT IMAGINE WHEN YOU WALK
THROUGHOUT SOME THE FLOORS YOU
COULD PROBABLY SEE SOME SPACE
THAT COULD BE BETTER UTILIZED
AND WE WE WE WE'VE BEEN WORKING
WITH THE DEPARTMENT GENERAL
SERVICES TO DO THAT. WE ARE WE
HAVE EFFECTIVELY COME UP WITH A
REDESIGNED. OF CUBA
CONFIGURATIONS ON EACH FLOOR
RATS WILL MAXIMIZE SPACE SO I I
THINK.
VOWED THAT COST WILL WILL FAR
OUTWEIGH GOING OUT IN THE OPEN
MARKET TO FIND SPACE ELSEWHERE.
WHAT SO WHY ARE WE REQUEST IN
THIS OF COURSE IS BECAUSE AS A
PROPOSAL STATES KELLY PIERCE A
HOLE HAS GROWN SIGNIFICANTLY
OVER THE YEARS? IN FACT TO THE
TUNE OF ALMOST OVER ANA
POSITIONS PER YEAR OVER THE LAST
FIVE YEARS IT'S ARE GONNA GROW
FOR HISTORICAL GROWTH.
THAT'S CALTRANS GOAL MINE A
MONTH THAT'S CRITICAL AL-ASSAD'S
BUT HERE. THIS PROJECT RA
ADDRESSES LONG TERM OFFICE SPACE
NEEDS OBVIOUSLY FOR ALL THE
BOARDS FIRMS AND OFFICES WITHIN
WITHIN THE COUNTY PA.
ZERO GENDER STATES THIS IS A
HAZARD TO FACE PROJECT OF PHASE
ONE IS OVER THE NEXT FOUR YEARS
FACE TO WILL BE THE FOLLOWING
FOR. OUR A FOR SUCCESSFUL I'D IN
OBTAINING APPROVAL FROM FROM AND
THE LEGISLATURE.
OR ANALYSIS SHOWS THAT.
INITIAL INVESTMENT THIS PROJECT
WILL WILL PROVIDE SIGNIFICANT
ONGOING COST SAVINGS.
BECAUSE WE OUGHT TO MY SPACE
WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY REDUCING
THE NEED TO SEARCH AND SECURE.
ADDITIONAL SPACE LEASE SPACE
AND DRAG YOU MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW
BUT RIGHT NOW FUNDING SPACE IN
DOWNTOWN SACRAMENTO HAS BEEN
PROVEN TO BE QUITE DIFFICULT. I
QUITE COSTLY IN FACT IT ALMOST
COST PROHIBITIVE AT LEAST FROM
OUR FROM OUR VANTAGE POINT.
TO THAT POINT THERE IS.
CHAR WITHIN OUR PROPOSAL THAT
COMPARES NEW LEASE COST VERSUS
OPTIMIZING OUR OUR CURRENT SPACE
WITHIN OUR BUILDING.
AND WE STAND TO SAVE.
OF UPWARDS OF TWENTY MILLION
DOLLARS JUST WITHIN THE NEXT TEN
YEARS WHO WILL GET OR WILL WE
GET OUR RETURN ON INVESTMENT.
RIGHT AWAY AND THAT DOESN'T EVEN
INCLUDE OUT HERE CIVIL JUST
CONTINUE TO GROW IT OUT HERE'S.
.
KELLY QUE FEELS FROM A FROM A
FISCAL POLICY IN BUSINESS
STANDPOINT AND ORGAN AYE AYE
OPTIMIZE OUR CURRENT SPACES IS
THE BEST OPTION.
THERE ARE OTHER REASONS
OBVIOUSLY FOR DOING THIS BUT ALL
I LEAVE YOU WITH WITH WITH THREE
OF HOME.
CONTINUING THESE MAY SELECT
SOUND BITES BUT THE REAL THERE
THEIR THEIR WITH THE REALLY.
RELEVANT FOR US CONTINUE TO CASH
IN ON THE STATE'S TWENTY FIVE
YEAR THREE HUNDRED TWENTY NINE
ONE MILLION DOLLAR INVESTMENT ON
THIS BUILDING YOU MAY KNOW THAT.
THAT WE PAY THE LEASE.
THROUGH THE CITY OF SANTA MARIA.
IT'S SO.
OR TO TWENTY TWENTY THREE THAT'S
CORRECT HAVE BRIAN SURE APPEAR
AT THE AUDITORIUM YOU HAVE FOR
ONE DOLLAR I MIGHT ADD YOU WE
WILL OWN THE BUILDING FOR ONE
DOLLAR.
HOW? ABOUT MAXIMIZING OUR CURVE
FOR FOOTPRINT IN LAW PEOPLE
DON'T KNOW THIS BUT KELLY BE
BUILDING WAS THE FIRST EVER LEAD
PLATINUM BUILDING. IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA.
AND.
BALL DOING THIS WILL SAVE IS
OBVIOUSLY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN
LEASE AVOIDANCE COSTS AND OTHER
FACILITIES DOWNTOWN OR ELSEWHERE
YEAH YEAH IN THE GREATER
SACRAMENTO AREA. AND AT THE RISK
OF SOUNDING REPETITIVE JUST AS
MUCH IMPORTANCE IS THAT ADHERES
TO THE GOVERNOR'S EXECUTIVE
ORDER TO.
TO OPTIMIZE SPACE WITHIN
EXISTING BUILDINGS.
O. A LEAVE YOU.
WITH ONE MORE ONE MORE COMMENT
MISSION TIME ONCE ORBAN
DISSATISFIED.
WE WILL BE PAYING LESS THAN A
DOLLAR PER SQUARE FOOT FOR FOR
THE COUNTY PA BUILDING RIGHT NOW
ON THE OPEN MARKET ARE NUMBER
SIX SUGGESTED IT'S THREE DOLLARS.
AND EVEN OF THREE DOLLARS EIGHT
CENTS IRRITATE SO THAT'S THAT'S
THAT'S.
PRETTY REMARKABLE ANYWAY
CONSIDER.
YEAH WELL A OVER THERE ASKING
FOR TWENTY TWO MILLION DOLLARS
NOW.
I THEY SAY OVER TEN YEARS
THEY'RE GOING TO SAVE TWENTY TO
TWENTY MILLION DOLLARS IN.
EXPENSES THAT THAT HAVE TED HIGH.
PAID TO MOVE OUT TO FIND
ADDITIONAL FACE WOULD.
WHAT DO YOU HAVE?
WE HAVE FROM ME SHEMAR WITH
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST'S OFFICE AND.
WHO WERE SO LOOKING AT THIS
PROPOSAL WE JUST RECEIVED IT
YESTERDAY SO ARE STILL ANALYZING
IT WE CAN SAY AT THIS POINT THAT
CONCEPTUALLY THE PROPOSAL MAKES
SENSE ASSUMING? THAT THERE WILL
CONTINUE TO BE GROWTH IN THE
NUMBER OF POSITIONS ARE THE NEXT
TEN YEARS IN THE BOARD'S OFFICES
AND DEPARTMENTS THAT OUR HOUSE
IN THE CAL EPA BUILDING AND THAT
THOSE POSITIONS ARE FILLED. ON
AND THE REASON FOR THIS OR DID
THEY JUST DISCUSSED IS THAT
WE'RE GOING NOW IN THE BUILDING
IN TWO THOUSAND TWENTY TWENTY
THREE. SO WE HAVE ONE TIME BUILD
OUT COST TO.
.
ME INCREASE THE NUMBER OF THAT
STATE PERSON NOW THAT COULD BE
HOUSE IN THE BUILDING AND WE
WOULD AVOID THE ONE TIME BUILD
OUT BECAUSE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN
THE LEAST FACILITY AND THE
ONGOING LEASE COSTS.
