COMMITTEE. THANK YOU MR
CHAIRMAN MEMBERS FOR ALLOW ME
TO PRESENT THIS BILL SB TWENTY
TWO WOULD AUTHORIZE A FIFTEEN
BILLION DOLLAR BOND FOR THE
TWENTY TWENTY TO BALLOT. FOR
FACILITIES FOR K. THROUGH
TWELVE THROUGH HIGHER EDUCATION
SPECIFICALLY THE BOND INCLUDES
NINE BILLION FOR PRESCHOOL
THROUGH GRADE TWELVE. AND TWO
BILLION H. FOR THE COMMUNITY
COLLEGES THE UNIVERSITY OF
CALIFORNIA AND THE CALIFORNIA
STATE UNIVERSITY. THE LAST K.
THROUGH TWELVE AND HIGHER
EDUCATION BOND PASSED IN TWO
THOUSAND SIX. HOWEVER BY TWO
THOUSAND TWELVE ALL THOSE FUNDS
WERE ESSENTIALLY EXHAUSTED.
THIS PART IS CRITICAL FOR
BRINGING ALL OF OUR PUBLIC
SCHOOLS. K. THROUGH TWELVE
THROUGH HIGHER EDUCATION INTO
THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY AND
ENSURING OUR CHILDREN OF CLEAN
DRINKING WATER AND SAFE PLACES
TO LEARN. THE PANDEMIC HAS
HIGHLIGHTED THE NEED FOR SAFE
SCHOOLS AND CAMPUS FACILITIES
TO PROTECT THE HEALTH OF
CHILDREN AND STAFF. CURRENTLY
MANY SCHOOLS DO NOT HAVE
SUFFICIENT BUILDING SPACE TO
COMPLY WITH FEDERAL AND STATE
RE OPENING. GUIDELINES ON
SMALLER CLASS SIZES. TO GET THE
CONSTRUCTION UP. AND- REPAIRS
ARE NEEDED TO CREATE LARGER
CLASSROOMS IMPROVE VENTILATION
SYSTEMS AND REDUCE THE RISK OF
TRANSMISSION AND SHARED SPACES.
ACCORDING TO THE PUBLIC POLICY
INSTITUTE ABOUT TWO THIRDS OF
THE STATE SCHOOL FACILITIES ARE
MORE THAN TWENTY FIVE YEARS
OLD. AND RESEARCH HAS SHOWN
THAT IT WOULD COST OVER A
HUNDRED SEVENTEEN BILLION
DOLLARS TO MODERNIZE SCHOOLS
AND COLLEGES IN THE NEXT
DECADE. WE NEED TO DO OUR BEST
TO HELP OUR STUDENTS WE DID
HAVE A DISAPPOINTING LOSS IN
THE MARCH TWENTY TWENTY
ELECTION BUT I WAS PLEASED TO
SEE THAT IN NOVEMBER VOTERS
APPROVED. SIXTY LOCAL SCHOOL
BOND MEASURES- ASSUMING THEY
DECIDED ON SIXTY THE APPROVED
80% OF THEM. THIS BILL BEFORE
YOU IS AN EXTENSION OF
COMPROMISES THAT WERE REACHED
LAST YEAR ON THE MEASURE THAT
WAS ON LAST YEAR'S BALLOT.
THERE ARE STILL CONVERSATIONS
GOING ON IN DISCUSSIONS WITH
LEADERSHIP IN THE GOVERNOR AND
STAKEHOLDERS- THIS BILL
ADVANCING TODAY WITH YOUR
APPROVAL. ALLOW THOSE
CONVERSATIONS TO CONTINUE IT
WOULD ALLOW THE SENATE TO STAND
UP FOR THE IMPORT IMPROVEMENTS
THAT WE ALL WANT TO SEE IN OUR
SCHOOLS AND OUR UNIVERSITY. I

FOR ITEM NUMBER SIX BUT IN THE
MEANTIME WE WELCOME THE GOOD
SENATOR. FROM STOCKTON AT
CENTER EGGMAN TO BE A PRESENT
SB FOUR TWENTY SEVEN A CRITICAL
ISSUE ESPECIALLY AS WE HEAD
INTO THE DRAFT CENTER EGGMAN
FORESHORES THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MISTER CHAIR AND- AND MEMBERS
I'M HERE TODAY TO TALK ABOUT
WATER ONE OF OUR MOST VALUABLE
RESOURCES- AND BACK VOTE SO
VALUABLE THAT IT IT IS OFTEN
THE- THE NUMBER OF SUBJECT IS A
WORD. BUT THE ITEM OF THEFT-
THERE'S MORE WATER THEFT THAT
OCCURS THAN WE MAY REALIZE
WHICH IS WHY I'M HERE TODAY TO
PRESENT S. B. FOUR TWENTY SEVEN
I'D LIKE TO START OUT BY
ACCEPTING THE AMENDMENTS FROM
THE COMMITTEE AND- THANK THE
COMMITTEE AND THE CHAIR FOR ALL
THEIR WORK. THIS BILL WOULD
ALLOW LOCAL WATER AGENCIES TO
ENHANCE THE PENALTIES FOR WATER
THEFT AS IT POSES A SERIOUS
PUBLIC HEALTH AS WELL AS A
SAFETY RISK EVERY TIME A NON
POTABLE SOURCE IS A LEGALLY
CONNECTED TO DRINKING WATER
SYSTEM THERE'S A CHANCE OF IT
CONTAMINATING THE WHOLE WATER
SOURCE. THIS MIGHT SEEM ODD TO
YOU THAT SOMEBODY WOULD DO
THIS- BUT YET THINK ABOUT
SOMEBODY GOING WITH THE BIG
HOSE AND CONNECTING TO A FIRE
HYDRANT AND THEN BE ABLE TO USE
IT IN SOME KIND OF COMMERCIAL
ENTERPRISE BECAUSE OFTEN TIMES
A- THE COST THE PENALTY FOR.
STEALING AT THAT WATER IS LESS
THAN IT WOULD BE TO ACTUALLY.
COOK UP LEGALLY TO THAT WATER
SYSTEM- THIS BILL IS AN- AND-
TO OUR WATER SYSTEMS. AND WE
KNOW THE IMPORTANCE. OF CLEAN
AND SAFE DRINKING WATER. THE
CURRENT PENALTIES ARE SIMPLY
NOT DETERRING WATER THEFT THEY
ARE SET AS LOW AS ONE HUNDRED
TWO HUNDRED AND FIVE HUNDRED
DOLLARS FOR THE FIRST SECOND
AND THIRD OFFENSE. RESPECTIVELY
IN A TWELVE MONTH PERIOD. WATER
AGENCIES HAVE WITNESSED ILLEGAL
CONNECTIONS TO HYDRANTS WITHOUT
APPROPRIATE EQUIPMENT AND
WITHOUT A PERMIT. IT PENALTIES
FALL FAR BELOW WHAT IT WOULD
COST TO DO IT YOURSELF- DESPITE
THE NEED TO DETER THE STRANGE
BEHAVIOR THIS BILL IS NOT
INTENDED TO ALLOW FOR PUNITIVE
PENALTIES- AND IN FACT MOST OF
THESE PENALTIES ARE NOT TOWARDS
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE JUST TRYING
TO GET CLEAN DRINKING WATER TO
THEIR HOME. THIS IS FOR MORE
COMMERCIAL ENTERPRISES THAT
OCCUR. WE THINK THIS BILL
STRIKES THE RIGHT BALANCE
BETWEEN- MAKING URE WEEK WE
KEEP OUR OUR WATER SYSTEM
MAINTAINED AND THEN. HAVING THE
FINES BE. DETERRENT ENOUGH THAT
PEOPLE WILL WILL STOP ILLEGALLY
CONNECTING UP. I AM TOO AB TWO
WATER SYSTEMS. AND WE THINK
THIS BILL STRIKES THE RIGHT
BALANCE IN WITH ME HERE TODAY
TO TESTIFY IS RYAN- ME. FROM
THE REGIONAL WATER AUTHORITY
AND- SOMEONE FROM ONE OF MY-
FUTURE LIFE AS A CITY
COUNCILMEMBER. MARC MEDICINE
WITH THE L. GROUP WATER
DISTRICT. THANK YOU SO MUCH
READING SENATOR AIMED AT LEAST
IN GENERAL COMMITTEE THIS BILL
DOES ENJOY BIPARTISAN SUPPORT
WHICH WE'RE VERY GRATEFUL FOR.
SO WE'RE GONNA START WITH RYAN
FOR THE REGIONAL WATER
AUTHORITY THEY WERE GONNA MARC
WITHOUT GROW WATER DISTRICT.
BRIAN WE WILL COMMUNICATE MANY
OR THREE MINUTES AND JUST WANNA
MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE AWARE
THAT YOU HAVE BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT ON THE BILL. THE. FLOOR
IS YOURS THREE OF UP TO THREE
MINUTES. THANK YOU TO- CREATES.
WE BE RESPECTFUL OF THE FACT
THAT WE DO HAVE BIPARTISAN
SUPPORT AND I THINK BETTER
EGGMAN COVERED. A GREAT DEAL-
THE POINTS THAT NEEDED TO BE
MADE AND I DON'T HAVE A WHOLE
LOT ATTY- I THINK SHE COVERED A
LOT OF GROUND BUT AGAIN- I
DON'T THINK I SAID MY NAME YET
SO FOR THE RECORD RYAN A
JACKING WITH THE REGIONAL WATER
AUTHORITY. WHO IS R. W. A. R.
D. THE JOINT POWERS THAT THE
SCENE COMPRISED OF TWENTY
DRINKING WATER AGENCIES THAT
PROVIDE. WATER TO TWO MILLION
PEOPLE AROUND PEOPLE IN THE
GREATER SACRAMENTO AREA AND OUR
MISSION IS TO. SERVE REPRESENT
AND ALIGNING INTERESTS- ARE
AGENCIES AND STAKEHOLDERS TO
ADVANCE THE DELIVERY- WATER
SUPPLY RELIABILITY AVAILABILITY
QUALITY AND AFFORDABILITY. AND
THAT IS. WHY WE HAVE AN
INTEREST IN THAT PARTICULAR
BILL BECAUSE WATER REALLY IS A
CHALLENGE TO THAT MISSION. AND
FRANKLY CENTER EGGMAN HIT THE
NAIL ON THE HEAD- THE ISSUE IS
THAT THE FINES ARE JUST NOT A
SUFFICIENT DETERRENT. TO THE
POINT WHERE I IT IS FRANKLY WE
HAVE- SOME ACTORS OUT THERE.
WHO JUST- CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO
GO THREE LEAD TO. BECAUSE IT
JUST BY. IS THE COST OF
BUSINESS TO TAKE ON A FINE. AND
POTENTIAL QUITE- THAT WATER SO
AT RISK AND SO- I DO WANT TO
THANK THE COMMITTEE FOR ALL THE
TIME AND AN EFFORT THAT THEY
PUT IN ON THE BILL AND I THINK
THAT- AGAIN AS CENTER EGGMAN.
STATED THAT THE APPROPRIATE
BALANCE HAS BEEN STRUCK WITH
LANGUAGE THAT FOR YOU AND SO I
WILL THANK THE COMMITTEE FOR
THEIR TIME AND I WILL- YOU KNOW
BACK IN THE ANY. OF THE
ADDITIONAL TREATMENT THANK YOU
THANKS SO MUCH MISTER TAKING
FROM THE REGIONAL WATER

SB THREE NINETY FIVE. I WOULD
LIKE TO START BY ACCEPTING THE
COMMITTEES AMENDMENTS AND I
WANT TO THANK YOU AND YOUR
STAFF FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE ON.
THREE NINETY FIVE. E.
CIGARETTES CONTAIN A HARMFUL
COMBINATION OF NICOTINE
FLAVORING AND OTHER CHEMICALS
ADDITIVES ALTHOUGH THEY ARE
CURRENTLY TAXED AS OTHER
TOBACCO PRODUCTS R. O. T. P.'S.
THE TAX RATE IS MUCH LOWER THAN
THAT OF TRADITIONAL CIGARETTES
THEREBY CONTRIBUTING TO THE
GROWING DISPARITY BETWEEN THESE
PRODUCTS. AND UNDERMINING
EFFORTS TO CURB VAPING. THIS
MEASURE SEEKS TO CREATE PARITY
BETWEEN THESE PROJECTS.
PRODUCTS BEIPING HAS BECOME
INCREASINGLY POPULAR DESPITE
THE HIGH A RISK OF ADVERSE
HEALTH INCOME. OUTCOMES THIS
HAS BEEN ESPECIALLY PROBLEMATIC
AMONG OUR YOUTH ACCORDING TO
THE CDC'S NATIONAL YOUTH
TOBACCO SURVEY NEARLY 20% OF
HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS REPORTED
CURRENT E. CIGARETTE USE. AND
OF THOSE 40% REPORT HEAVY USE
OF THE E. CIGARETTES. THE
AVAILABILITY OF YOUTH APPEALING
FLAVORS AND MARKETING HAS IN
LARGE PART CONTRIBUTED TO THIS
TREND. MANY TOBACCO RETAILERS
ARE MORE PREVALENT IN THE
POOREST AND MORE ETHNICALLY
DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOODS WHICH
OFTEN INCLUDES POPULATIONS MOST
AT RISK. OF AN ADEQUATE HEALTH
CARE ACCESS AND COVERAGE. SB
THREE NINETY FIVE THE HEALTHY
OPTIONS AND PREVENTION
EDUCATION ACT PROPOSES CLOSER
TAX PARITY BETWEEN THE SALE OF
VAPING. PRODUCTS AND
TRADITIONAL TOBACCO PRODUCTS BY
PROPOSING A NEW TAX ON VAPE
PRODUCTS. PROCEEDS OF THE RED

WELCOME US SENATOR SKINNER AT
TO THE PODIUM THIS IS ON SENATE
BILL THREE NINETY EIGHT THREE
NINETY EIGHT IS FOCUS ON SOME
REALLY IMPORTANT CONSEQUENCES
RESULTING FROM VOTERS APPROVING
PROPOSITION SIXTY FOUR AND IT
IS HARD TAKE A MOMENT TO SAY
THANK YOU TO THE GOOD SENATOR
FROM BERKELEY AND REPRESENTING
THE EAST BAY FOR THE AMENDMENTS
TODAY THAT'S GOING TO REMOVE
THE TAX COMPONENTS FROM THE
BILL NOW IT'S GOING TO REMOVE
TODAY BUT I WOULD CONSIDER THAT
TEMPORARY BECAUSE- WE'RE GOING
TO CONTINUE TO WORK
COLLABORATIVE LEE AS WE HAVE
THE ENTIRE STEP OF THE WAY.
WITH THE GOOD SENATOR ON THIS
BILL AS IT MOVES FORWARD AT
CENTER SKINNER AND I'VE
DISCUSSED REFORMS TO THE
CANNABIS TAX SYSTEM TO MAKE IT
MORE EFFICIENT AND EQUITABLE
ESPECIALLY FOR CULTIVATORS- AND
IN FACT YESTERDAY AND I JUST
WANNA SAY THANK YOU TO SENATE'S
GONNA READER REALLY GOOD
CONVERSATION WHERE THE- GOOD
SENATORS STAFF TEAM IN THE
STAFF TEAM FOR GOVERNANCE IN
FINANCE I HAVE ALREADY
SCHEDULED A MEETING TO DISCUSS
THE TAX ISSUE NEXT WEEK ON
REFORMS- IN AND THEREFORE THE
ONLY AMENDMENTS IN FRONT OF
COMMITTEE TODAY. ARE THE TAX
COMPONENTS OF THE BILL- DID
THIS COMMITTEE RECEIVED THOSE
THAT ARE IN LAST NIGHT THE
REMAINDER OF THE BILLS IN FRONT
OF US INCIDENTS CAN I JUST WANT
TO SAY YOU WERE ONE OF THE MOST
COLLABORATIVE HERE IN THE
BUILDING I WANT TO SAY THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT WE LOOK
FORWARD TO PLAYING THE NEWS.
HERE IN THE NEXT. COMING WEEKS.
THANK YOU MISS CHAIR AND THANK
YOU FOR- X. WHAT WE ARE. ON AND
AS YOU INDICATED I AM ACCEPTING
THE COMMITTEE MINUTES WHICH
WOULD REMOVE THE INCREASED
EXCISE TAX. WITH OF COURSE THE
COMMITMENT THAT WE WOULD WORK
TOGETHER TO FIGURE OUT. HOW TO
ENSURE THAT LOCALS GET SOME
SHARE OF THE REVENUE NOW ALL
EXPLAIN WHY THAT'S SO IMPORTANT
BECAUSE IT'S- INFECTED THE COR
THE BILL. SO AS WE ALL KNOW
PROP SIXTY FOUR LEGALIZED ADULT
USE OF CANNABIS. AND YOU KNOW
MANY OF US IN OBVIOUSLY VOTERS
WELCOME THAT. AND WHAT PART OF
OUR PURPOSE. CERTAINLY YOU KNOW
THERE WERE MANY PEOPLE WHO HOPE
THAT WE WOULD GET LOTS OF
REVENUE FROM IT. AND WE OFTEN
SEE OBVIOUSLY WANT TO
DECRIMINALIZE. BUT WHAT
UNFORTUNATELY IS A KURD IS THAT
WE DO IN WHILE WE HAVE MANY.
BUSINESSES THAT ARE FOLLOWING
THE RULES. THAT GOT LICENSED.
THAT ARE COMPLYING WITH
EVERYTHING. WE STILL HAVE ABOUT
A THIRD. OR RATHER THEIR ONLY A
THIRD. OF CALIFORNIA'S LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS OR JURISDICTIONS
THAT HAVE LEGAL BUSINESSES
OPERATING. NOW AS WE KNOW HOW
LONG WE HAD AN ILLEGAL
BUSINESS. THE LEAGUE ILLEGAL
BUSINESS IS THRIVING. ANSWER
RIGHT NOW THAT ILLEGAL CANNABIS
BUSINESS IS ESTIMATED IN TWENTY
NINETEEN TO HAVE A VALUE OF
SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS. THE L.
A- PUTS THE VALUE OF OUR LEGAL
MARKET. ONLY AT THREE POINT
THREE. SO WHAT DOES THAT TELL.
THE GOOD BUSINESSES THAT HAVE
COMPLIED WITH THE REQUIREMENTS.
IT REALLY YOU START TO THINK
WHY SHOULD I HAVE. AND SO WE
REALLY WANT TO. HELLO WE WANT
TO SUPPORT AND ENCOURAGE THE
LEGAL BUSINESS AND ONE OF THE
WAYS TO DO IT IS ONE OF THE
REASONS THAT LOCALITIES HAVE
NOT EITHER ALLOWED. LEGAL
BUSINESSES OR SO IS BECAUSE THE
PROPOSITION SET UP A VERY
COMPLICATED LOCAL LICENSING
REGIME WHICH SOME LOCALITIES
ARE JUST EITHER DO NOT HAVE THE
RESOURCES FOR. OR YOU KNOW WHAT
WE FOR WHATEVER REASON THEY DID
NOT WANT TO SET UP THAT. REGIME
HOWEVER THEY'RE NOT OPPOSED TO
HAVING A LEGAL BUSINESS OPERATE
SO WHAT THIS BILL WOULD DO IS
CREATE THE ABILITY FOR THE
LOCALITY TO OPT IN TO THE STATE
SYSTEM SO THE STATE COULD GIVE
THE LICENSE. NOW IF YOU THE
LOCALITY WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO
WANT TO OPT IN IF YOU CAN'T GET
ANY MONEY FROM THAT AND SO
THAT'S WHY WE NEED TO FIX THE
PART THAT MR REQUIRE THE CHAIR
POINTED OUT AND WE'RE WORKING
TOGETHER TO DO IT. BUT AS I
BASICALLY INFORMED YOU OF WHAT
THE ESSENTIALLY BILL DOES WHICH
IS CREATE THIS ABILITY FOR THE
LOCALITY TO OPT IN AND LET THE
STATE. GIVE THE LICENSING BY TO
THE LOCAL ENTITY TO OPERATE IN
THE LOCAL JURISDICTIONS. IT
ALSO CREATES AN EQUITY
OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE IN OUR
BUREAU OF CANNABIS CONTROL. AND
LOWERS THE LABOR PEACE
AGREEMENT THRESHOLD FROM
TWENTY- EMPLOYEES TO CAN'T SO
WITH THAT ALLOW ME WITNESSES TO
SPEAK AND I HAVE AMY JENKINS
FROM THE CALIFORNIA CANNABIS
INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION AND ROBERT
HARRIS FROM SEIU CALIFORNIA.
THANK YOU SO MUCH SOONER
SKINNER AGAIN VERY GRATEFUL FOR
THE PARTNERSHIP LET'S GO TO OUR
FIRST LEAD WITNESSES YOUR LEAD

MINUTES THIS IS GONNA BE ANNIE
JENKINS REPRESENTING THE
CALIFORNIA CANNABIS INDUSTRY
ASSOCIATION MICHIGAN'S. WORK ON
THE COMMITTEE THE FLOOR IS

CAN MEMBER AMY JENKINS WITH
PROFESSIONAL ADVOCACY ON BEHALF
OF THE CALIFORNIA CANNABIS
INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION. WHICH
REPRESENTS OVER FOUR HUNDRED
MEMBERS ACROSS ALL ASPECTS OF
THE CANNABIS BY CHANGE WE WANT
TO THANK THE AUTHOR FOR
INTRODUCING THIS IMPORTANT%
LEGISLATION AND FOR YOUR WORK
MISTER CHAIR CAN MAKE THAT
SPELL- I BETTER BELL. AND IT
SEEKS TO EXPANDCOMPUTER ACCESS
TO LICENSED AND REGULATED
CANNABIS GROW VOLUNTARY PROGRAM
WHERE BY THE STATE WHAT IS THE
PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITY OF OUR
COMMERCIAL CANNABIS LICENSING
ON BEHALF OF PARTICIPATING
JURISDICTIONS. CALIFORNIA'S
LEGAL CANNABIS INDUSTRY HAS
FACED CONSIDERABLE CHALLENGES.
THE REGULATORY FRAMEWORK FOR
CANNABIS TOOK A FACT INCLUDING
A LACK OF ACCESS TO CAPITAL
HEAVY REGULATORY BURDENS AND
COMPETITION FROM A MUCH LARGER
UNLICENSED MARKET. DESPITE
THESE CHALLENGES LEGAL CANNABIS
BUSINESSES HOLD MASTER GROWTH
POTENTIAL CALIFORNIA'S LICENSED
INDUSTRY GENERATED MORE THAN
FOUR POINT ONE BILLION AND
TAXABLE SALES IN TWO THOUSAND
TWENTY. A. 50% INCREASE FROM
THE PRIOR YEAR. DR ALSO TO A
AND DOLLAR LIKE TO THE-
DEPARTMENT OF TAX SHE ADMITS.
THE LICENSE HAVE ALSO
EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT JOB
GROWTH ADDING ROUGHLY TWENTY
FOUR THOUSAND WELL PAYING JOBS
RESULTING IN MORE THAN FIFTY
THOUSAND FULL TIME POSITION IN
CALIFORNIA. DESPITE THE
INDUSTRY SIGNIFICANT
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE STATE'S
ECONOMY ONLY ONE OUT OF FOUR
DOLLARS AND ON CANNABIS AND
CALIFORNIA ARE SPENT IN THE
LEGAL MARKET THIS IS PRIMARILY
DUE TO TWO FACTORS. FIRST IT
TURNED B THE STATE HI CHRI
RGULATORY BURDENS UNLIKE THE
BUSINESSES SELL CHEAPER
UNTESTED PRODUCTS TO PATIENTS
AND CONSUMERS AND SECOND AS
PREVIOUSLY POINTED OUT ONLY 32%
OF CALIFORNIA FIVE HUNDRED AND
FORTY CITIES IN CHINESE.
AUTHORIZED LEGAL RETAIL
CANNABIS BUSINESSES LEADING
MANY PATIENTS AND CONSUMERS
WITHOUT ACCESS TO SAFE AND
LEGAL PRODUCTS. JUST IMAGINE
THE POTENTIAL IF MORE
COMMUNITIES AUTHORIZED LICENSED
CANNABIS RETAIL SB THREE NINE
EIGHT OFFERS LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
ARE STREAMLINED APPROACH TO
PROVIDE SAFE ANDRESPONSIBLE
ACCESS TO REGULATED CANNABIS.
EXPANDING LEGAL ACCESS THIS
BILL WILL HELP CURB DEMAND FOR
UNLICENSED PRODUCT AND HAS THE
POTENTIAL TO PROVIDE ADDITIONAL
JOBS AND ECONOMIC GROWTH WHILE
INCREASING THE STATE AND LOCAL
TAX REVENUES. HE SAID WE ALSO
WISH TO APPLAUD THE SENATOR FOR
INCLUDING PROVISIONS TO
ESTABLISH A STAKEHOLDER
OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE TO ENSURE A
FAIR AND EQUITABLE DISTRIBUTION
EQUITY GRANTS. AND TO DEVELOP
MODEL GUIDELINES FOR LOCAL
EQUITY PROGRAMMING THIS IS A
CRITICAL LONGSTANDING PRIORITY
FOR CPA'S DIVERSITY INCLUSION

HUMANA MODERATOR THANK YOU SO
MUCH TO TURN IT BACK TO
COMMITTEE TODAY TO SEE IF WE
HAVE ANY QUESTIONS COMMENTS OR
WELCOME MY MOTION NOW RIGHT AT
CENTER DRIVES A POLICE INFORMER
INSURANCE WELL I MOVED A MOTION
BUT- I HAVE A COUPLE QUESTIONS
JUST. TELL YOU SOUND A LITTLE
BIT BETTER IF I MAY MISTER
PLEASE I'M JUST. CURIOUS HERE-
THE STATE IS CURRENTLY
LICENSING- STRAIGHT. I MEAN.
YOU CAN GET A LICENSE STRAIGHT
FROM THE STATE. IS THAT IS THAT
HAPPENING RIGHT NOW THERE IS
THE OPTIONS YES THERE IS THE
ABILITY FOR- AS LONG AS THE
LOCALITY DOES NOT OBJECT SO
THERE IS ALREADY THAT ABILITY
BUT OF COURSE IN THOSE CASES
THE- LOCALITY GETS NO REVENUE.
AND SO WE HAVE IN WE HAVE A
CIRCUMSTANCE WHERE THERE ARE
THERE ARE LOCALITIES WHO HAVE
NOT SET UP. THEIR LICENSING
STRUCTURE BECAUSE OF ITS
COMPLICATION BUT WHO WANT TO
HAVE LEGAL BUSINESSES AND OF
COURSE WANT TO SHARE IN THE
REVENUE SO THIS IS THIS BILL
WOULD CREATE THAT ABILITY I
JUST ONE MORE QUESTION IF I
CAN- HOW WOULD. HOW DO YOU KNOW
HOW IF THOSE LOCAL AREAS ARE
REALLY GOING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE
OF THIS I MEAN IT IS THE JUST A
GUESS BECAUSE SOME OF THEM HAVE
SAID SO OR DO WE REALLY HAVE
SOME RELIABLE EXPECTATION-
INTERESTING QUESTION BECAUSE OF
COURSE MY STAFF AND I HAVE
DISCUSSED THAT A LOT BECAUSE
WHY WOULD WE WANT TO. GO TO THE-
TROUBLE PUTTING SOMETHING
COMPLICATED INTO PLACE IF IT
DID NOT GET. UTILIZED NOW IF
THE LOWER. CAN RECOVER NO. IT
IS LIKELY IT WON'T YOU- SO
THAT'S WHY .COM SO IMPORTANT
AND WE'RE ON IT- HOWEVER I CAN.
RIGHT NOW. WE WITH THIS PANDA
INDUCED RECESSION. AND KNOWING
THAT AT LEAST BRICK AND MORTAR
THERE SOME LEVEL OF BRICK OR
MORTAR TYPE OF OPERATIONS THAT
ARE NOT GOING TO COME BACK AND
WHILE WE HAVE THE ABILITY TO
COLLECT SALES TAX FROM INTERNET
SALES. IT'S NOW IF FOR EXAMPLE
OF THE AMAZON WAREHOUSES YOU
KNOW SHOW MORE FAR AWAY THAN
THAT LOCAL JURISDICTION DOESN'T
GET EVEN IF YOU YOUR YOU BUY
THE PRODUCT OR WHATEVER SO
POINT I'M MAKING IS THAT OUR
LOCAL GOVERNMENTS REVENUES HAVE
REALLY BEEN HURT. AND SO THEY
MADE ESPECIALLY WHEN THEYSEE
THE VALUE OF. THAT WILL THAT
THREE DOLLARS OUT OF EVERY FOUR
DOLLARS SPENT ON CANNABIS IN
THE STATE IS BEING SPENT
ILLEGALLY AND THAT IF THEY
CREATED THE PATHWAY FOR THE
LEGAL THEY COULD BE COLLECTING
REVENUE WHICHWOULD HELP THEM
SO THAT I THINK PERHAPS A
COUPLE YEARS AGO WE MAY NOT
HAVE FOUND QUITE AS MUCH BUT I
THINK NOW LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE
REALLY GOING TO BE LOOKING FOR
REVENUE. SINCE THIS PANDEMIC.
THE QUESTION I THINK IS HER
SANDRA SO IT WOULD LIKE TO GO
TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS OR
COMMENTS WE DO HAVE A MOTION ON
THE FLOOR. BY SENATOR RUSSELL
SHARING. NO QUESTIONS. WE'RE
GONNA TURN OVER TO THE SKINNER
FOR THE CLOSE. THANKS SO MUCH
CARE- I WAS JUST REFLECTING.
SPECIALLY ON HEARING NO
OPPOSITION. AT LEAST FOR
CALLERS- THAT. YOU KNOW WHAT.
WHILE I HAVE NOT. SPENT MOST OF
MY ADULT LIFE PRIMARILY WORKING
ON. THE ACCEPTANCE AND
LEGALIZATION OF CANNABIS. I
CERTAINLY HAVE. BEEN INVOLVED
IN IT FOR OVER FORTY YEARS. AND
I WAS REFLECTING ON THE FACT
THAT I COORDINATED. THE VERY
FIRST. COURT UPHELD LEGAL.
DECRIMINALIZATION OF CANNABIS
INITIATIVE. BACK IN NINETEEN
SEVENTY NINE IN BERKELEY. AND
NOW TODAY WE HAVE. IT LEGAL
ACROSS THE STATE. AND YET
IRONICALLY WE ARE FACING THIS
CIRCUMSTANCE. OF ES- THE GOOD
WITNESS AMY JENKINS POINTED OUT.
ONLY ONE DOLLARS OUT F EVERY
FOUR DOLLARS SPENT BEING SPENT
WITHIN THE LEGAL MARKET SO I AM
THAT MUCH MORE COMMITTED TO
DOING EVERYTHING I CAN TO
INCREASING THAT LEGAL MARKET
AND SUPPORTING THAT LAURIE
LEGAL MARKET AND WITH THAT I
ASK FOR YOUR AYE VOTE ON SB
THREE NINETY EIGHT. THANK YOU
SO MUCH SENATE SKINNER WE LOOK

STAFF WHO. HAVE TO WIPE DOWN
EVERY SURFACE AND ENSURE THAT
WE'RE WE'RE DOING EVERYTHING WE
CAN TO. DO OUR PART IN STOPPING
THE SPREAD OF THIS TERRIBLE
VIRUS SO THANK YOU. AS ALWAYS
LET ME JUST START BY THINKING
THAT YOU'RE GOING TO THINK THE
EXCELLENT- AND STAFF. FOR ITS
HARD WORK I AM VERY HAPPY TO
ACCEPT YOUR COMMITTEE
AMENDMENTS- THERE IN COMMON SIX
MEMBERS FOR YOU TO. REFER TO.
NON URINALYSIS THEY BASICALLY
RE ESTABLISHED AT THE REQUEST
OF THE REALTORS PROVISIONS-
RELATED TO NIFTY TO DISTRICT
PLAN ADOPTION AMENDMENT AND
REVIEW. YOU'VE GOT MY
COMMITMENT THAT I WILL CONTINUE
TO WORK COLLABORATIVELY WITH
THIS COMMITTEE AND ALSO WITH
STAKEHOLDERS IF THE BILL. DOES
MOVE FORWARD TODAY. THIS BILL
SB FIVE SIXTY THREE UPDATES AND
IMPROVES UPON THE SECOND
NEIGHBORHOOD INFILL FINANCE AND
TRANSIT IMPROVEMENTS ACT. NIFTY
TWO. NIGHTS A VOLUNTARY TAX
INCREMENT FINANCING TOOL TO
CATALYZE AFFORDABLE INFILL
HOUSING. NEAR TRANSIT NOW AS
THIS COMMITTEE KNOWS IN THE
WAKE OF REDEVELOPMENT'S
DISSOLUTION. THE LEGISLATORS
CREATED NUMEROUS INFRASTRUCTURE
FINANCING INSTITUTIONS THAT
HAVE YET TO CATALYZE
SUBSTANTIAL GROWTH. A NIFTY TWO
WAS ESTABLISHED IN CONSULTATION
WITH HOUSING AND TRANSIT
ADVOCATES TO PROVIDE CITIES AND
COUNTIES. WITH A FINANCING
TOOL. THAT THE- THAT ESPECIALLY
INCENTIVIZE IS THE DEVELOPMENT
AND CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSING IN
TRANSIT ORIENTED COMMUNITIES.
TO THE LEGISLATION THAT I
AUTHORED CREATING THE STATUTE
ALSO REQUIRED THE GOVERNOR'S
OFFICE OF PLANNING AND RESEARCH
OPR. TO STUDY AND REPORT ON THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF TANK TAX
INCREMENT OF TOOLS FOR
INCREASING HOUSING PRODUCTION.
SO HERE'S THE THING OPR TRIP.
WHICH WAS RELEASED EARLIER THIS
YEAR NOTES THAT LIMITED REVENUE
POTENTIAL OF INCREMENT
FINANCING TOOLS. QUOTE
SIGNIFICANTLY LIMITS THEIR
ABILITY TO ASSIST IN MEETING
STATE HOUSING GOALS AND IT
RECOMMENDS EXPLORATION OF WAYS
TO OP POTENTIALLY LEVERAGE
EXISTING STATE PROGRAMS AND
FUNDING SOURCES. TO ENABLE USE
OF FINANCING TO PROMOTE
LOCATION EFFICIENT DEVELOPMENT
AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING IN
PLACES WHERE CURRENT INCREMENTS
FINANCING TOOLS ALONE. MAY BE
INSUFFICIENT. SO THIS BILL
INCORPORATES- PR'S
RECOMMENDATION. I ENVISIONING A
ROLE FOR POTENTIAL STATE
FUNDING TO BOLSTER A SHARED
GOAL WITH CITIES AND COUNTIES
OF BUILDING INFILL HOUSING AND
COMPLEMENTARY INFRASTRUCTURE
TRANSIT. IT ALSO STRENGTHENS
NIFTY TO USE TENANT
PROTECTIONS. HOMELESSNESS
PREVENTION IN INTO DISPLACEMENT
PROVISIONS ENSURING DISTRICTS
AUGMENT BUT NOT UNINTENTIONALLY
UNDERMINE CALIFORNIA'S
AFFORDABLE HOUSING STOCK. SO BY
ESTABLISHING A ROBUST FRAMEWORK
FOR COLLABORATION AND CO
INVESTMENT BETWEEN THE STATE
AND ITS CITIES AND COUNTIES.
WHO WISH TO WORK TOGETHER TO
BUILD AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PREVENT HOMELESSNESS IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES THIS BILL PROVIDES
A MECHANISM THE COMMERCIAL MORE
FINANCIAL RESOURCES THAT ANYONE
LEVEL OF GOVERNMENT. CAN
PROVIDE ALONE SO ON THE PHONE
WITH ME TODAY AND SAID THAT

MISTER CHAIR MEMBERS TODAY
IMPRISONING SP SIX FIFTY EIGHT
WHICH IS BEING SPONSORED BY
SENATE SAMBAR DINO COUNTY
ASSESSOR RECORDER CLERK MR BOB
DENTON FORMER SENATOR. THIS
MEASURE AUTHORIZES COUNTY
ASSESSOR'S TO OFFER A PARTIAL
PROPERTY TAX DEDUCTIONS FOR
DISABLED VETERANS A
PROPORTIONATE TO THEIR
PERCENTAGE OF DISABILITY RATING
PROVIDED BY THE U. S.
DEPARTMENT OF VETERAN AFFAIRS.
FOR THE MILITARY SERVICE IN
WHICH THE VETERAN HAS BEEN
DISCHARGED OTHER STATES OFFER
PROPERTY TAX CREDITS ON VARYING
DEGREES AND- MANY ALLOW
VETERANS TO QUALIFY WITH
DISABILITY RATINGS LESS THAN
1100% INCLUDING FLORIDA
ILLINOIS IN TEXAS. CURRENTLY
DISABLED VETERANS MAY REQUEST
REDUCTION ON THEIR PROPERTIES-
HOME SS VALUE FOR THE PURPOSES
OF DETERMINING PROPERTY TAXES
IF THEY ARE 1100% DISABLED
BLIND IN BOTH EYES OR HAVE LOST.
ONE OR MORE LIMBS. IF DISEASE
THE BETTER TO SURVIVE SPOUSE
ALSO QUALIFY. HOWEVER WITH THIS
WITHOUT THIS BILL A VETERAN
WITH A LIFE CHANGING 50%
DISABLED RATING WOULD BE WOULD
CONTINUE TO BE AN ELIGIBLE FOR
PROPERTY TAX DEDUCTIONS.
ACCORDING TO TWO THOUSAND
EIGHTEEN DATA PROVIDED BY THE
U. S. DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS
AFFAIRS THERE APPROXIMATELY
THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND VETERANS
WHO HAVE SOME LEVEL OF
DISABILITY RATING. M. AND IF
THEY OWN PROPERTY WOULDN'T NOT
TO BE ELIGIBLE FOR PROPERTY TAX
DEDUCTION IN THE STATE OF
CALIFORNIA IN LOS ANGELES ALONE
THERE ARE APPROXIMATELY FIFTY
THOUSAND VETERANS HE WOULD BE
INELIGIBLE UNDER THIS CURRENT
LAW. AT A TIME IN TWO THOUSAND
AND EIGHTEEN THE VA ESTIMATED
THAT IN CALIFORNIA THERE'D BE
MORE THAN TEN THOUSAND HOMELESS
VETERANS. WHICH WAS FIVE TIMES
MORE THAN THE NEXT HIGHEST
STATE SB FIVE SIX FIFTY EIGHT
COULD- COULD BE THAT SAVING
GRACE FOR A VETERAN HELPING
THEM TO KEEP THEIR HOME TO GET
THEM THROUGH THE HARDSHIP UNTIL
THEY CAN GET BACK ON THEIR
FEET. WE ALL KNOW AND ARE AWARE
THE SACRIFICES THAT OUR
VETERANS MAKE WHEN THEY SWEAR
TO DEFEND OUR COUNTRY- WHAT WE
MUST ALSO REMEMBER IS THAT
VETERANS STRUGGLE TO ADJUST
BACK TO CIVILIAN LIFE AS WELL.
THIS TRANSACTION THIS
TRANSITION CAN EVEN BE MORE
DIFFICULT- FOR THOSE INJURED
WHILE SERVING IN WORST AND THAT
STRUGGLE WITH ILLNESSES-
ILLNESSES SUCH AS PTSD. THOUGH
THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF FINANCIAL
BENEFIT THEY CAN EQUAL THE
AMOUNT OF LOSS FOR THE DISABLED
VETERANS AND WHAT THEY FACE. SB
SIX FIFTY EIGHT CAN PROVIDE
MUCH NEEDED RELIEF FOR
STRUGGLING VETERANS AND THEIR
FAMILIES. FORMER STATE SENATOR
BOB DENTON HE WAS THE ASSESSOR
WHO IS THE ASSESSOR RECORDER.
FOR SAN BERNARDINO COUNTY IS MY
PER SPONSOR AND THE PRIMARY
WITNESS TO SUPPORT THIS BILL

SENATE REVENUE AND TAXATION
COMMITTEE IS WELL- MISTER
SENATOR. THE FLOOR IS YOURS YOU
HAVE UP TO THREE MINUTES AND
WE'LL GIVE YOU THIRTY SECOND
PROMPT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE GOOD
SENATOR SENATOR GROVE. WELL I
THINK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN AS
WELL AS MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE FOR CONSIDERING THE
S. B. SIX FIFTY EIGHT- IS THE
GOOD SENATOR GROW IS SUPPORTED
OUT. I AM THE CUSTOMER DINO
COUNTY ASSESSOR THAT'S LIFE
AFTER BEING IN THE STATE
SENATE- THE AND IT BRINGS ME
GREAT PLEASURE TO PRESENT THIS
OPPORTUNITY WAS SENATE BILL SIX
FIFTY EIGHT- THIS ISSUE KIND OF
CAME UP- I USED. TO DO A LOT OF
RESOURCE FAIRS FOR VETERANS.
WHEN I FIRST GOT ELECTED AS THE
COUNTY ASSESSOR AND- ANSWER
THIS QUESTION KEPT COMING UP I
HAD PEOPLE THAT. WOULD HAVE
LIKE 90% DISABILITY AND THERE
WAS JUST NOTHING I COULD DO FOR
ME I HAD TO TELL NO. AND THAT
WAS REALLY DISHEARTENING. TO
LOOK AT SOMEBODY WHO'S WHO
SERVED HIS COUNTRY FAITHFULLY
WHO NOW. IN TODAY'S MILITARY
HIS YOU KNOW THE NATIONAL GUARD
PLEASE MORE CRITICAL ROLE THAN
IT DID BACK WHEN I WAS IN. THE
SERVICE BACK IN NINETEEN
SEVENTY. AND BECAUSE THEY'RE
NOT ONLY. HELP US HERE AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL BUT THEY ALSO. THEN
WE'LL GET COULD SOMETIMES
CALLED IN THE ACTIVE DUTY TO
SERVE. OTHER MISSIONS- AND
OTHER PARTS OF THE WORLD AS
WELL- THE CURRENTLY THE
DISABLED VETERANS EXEMPTION IS
ONLY AVAILABLE TO SOMEBODY
WHO'S TOTALLY DISABLED- THAT
MEANS A 100% AND THAT'S
DETERMINED BY THE VETERANS
ADMINISTRATION. WE HAVE OVER
TWENTY FOUR THOUSAND VETERANS
RESIDING HERE IN. SAN BENITO
COUNTY. WITH THE SERVICE
CONNECTED DISABILITY RATING.
AND OF THOSE ONLY ABOUT FOUR
THOUSAND VETERANS- HAVE A. 100%
DISABILITY RATING- THIS MEANS
IS BET SIX. ONLY APPLIES TO
ABOUT 16% OF THE DISABLED
VETERANS HERE IN SAMBAR DINO
COUNTY. AND EVEN IF A VETERAN
HAS A DISABLE READING OF 90%
CURRENT WHILE THE CURRENT LAW
DOES NOT ALLOW. THEM TO QUALIFY
FOR AN EXEMPTION. TOO OFTEN
WERE FORCED TO TURN AWAY
DISABLED VETERANS SEEKING. SOME
TYPE OF HELP OR ASSISTANCE. I
LIKE TO THINK- SENATOR GROW FOR
HER LEADERSHIP IN ON THIS ISSUE
AND I THINK IT'S CRITICAL WE
PROVIDE SUPPORT RESOURCES TO
OUR NATION'S. DISABLED
VETERANS. THEY MAKE A GREAT
SACRIFICE WAY SERVING OUR
COUNTRY AND DESERVING OF THIS
BENEFIT. ALSO I NOTICED IN THE
COMMITTEE REPORT THERE WAS
GOING TO BE- A POSSIBLE
CONSIDERATION OF AN AMENDMENT
TO ESTABLISH A- BOTTOM AND I
THINK THAT'S PROBABLY
REASONABLE I WOULD RECOMMEND.
FIFTY PERCENT- IF THAT WOULD BE
THE COMMITTEES DESIRE AND- AND
I CERTAINLY THINK IT WOULD BE
REASONABLE. WHAT YOU WANT THANK
YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY AND I
LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR FAVORABLE
CONSIDERATION OF THIS BILL.

FORESHORES YES- I WOULD BE
PREPARED TO- MOVE. THE BILL BUT
MY QUESTION IS AND IT WAS
RAISED I THINK BY CENTER DUTTON
IS THERE A BOTTOM THRESHOLD-
THAT IS BEING DISCUSSED. THERE
WAS NOT A THRESHOLD OR FLOOR
THRESHOLD AND THAT I'D BE
WILLING TO TAKE AN AMENDMENT.
ON THE FLOOR THRESHOLD IF- THE
WAY I ENVISION THE IN THE WAY
IT'S- THE WAY THE I ENVISION
THE BILL IS THAT RIGHT NOW.
CALIFORNIA VETERANS ARE
REQUIRED TO BE 1100% DISABLED.
A BLIND IN BOTH EYES OR YOU
LOSE ONE OR MORE LAMBS
WONDERED. ALOUD TO SEE ME TWO
OR MORE LINES. WHAT ABOUT A
DISABLED VETERAN WHO HAS HIS
ARM CUT OFF AND BECAUSE OF THAT
TRAGIC EVENT HE HAS PTSD AND
CAN'T FUNCTION IN SOCIETY. THIS
IS AN INDIVIDUAL THAT WOULD NOT
BE ELIGIBLE UNDER BENEFITS FOR
CALIFORNIA. SO I'M WILLING TO
WORK WITH YOU IN ORDER TO HELP
GET THE BILL PASSED MISS I'M A
DRAWS- BUT- I JUST THINK THAT
WE NEED TO PUT- VETERANS FIRST
AND- THIS. PARTICULAR BILL AND-
ONLY ADDRESSES THE ISSUES THAT
I THINK THAT VETERANS FACE
EVERY DAY- I HAVE OF. WOUNDED
VETERANS IN MY COMMUNITY A
DOUBLE AMPUTEE HAS NO PROBLEM
GETTING THESE TYPE OF BENEFITS.
BUT I ALSO HAVE A WITH A
VETERAN WHO IS- DEATH. I'M
ALMOST 80% DEATH BUT IT'S ONLY
A CERTAIN LIKE A 20% DISABILITY
RATING- BUT HE HAS TO READ YOU
KNOW SIGN LANGUAGE THINGS LIKE
THAT. AND THEN I HAVE ANOTHER
VETERAN THAT HAS LOST ONE ARM
AND THEY'RE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR
THESE BENEFITS AND I KNOW THAT
YOU HAVE A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF
THE TRANSCEND YOUR DISTRICTS
I'D BE WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU
ONE OF. ON THE FLOOR. AND IF
THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL- MOVING
FORWARD I THINK THIS BILL IS
GOING TO BE REFERRED TO ANOTHER
COMEDIAN AND I'D WORK WITH YOU
ON THAT. WELL OUR IDEA- REALLY
APPRECIATED WHICH IS WHY I'M-
MOVING THE BILL. I JUST DON'T
KNOW. WHAT IT MEANS WHEN YOU
HAVE 5% DISABILITY OR 10%
DISABILITY AYE AYE I DON'T KNOW
PHYSICALLY WHAT THAT MEANS ARE.
OF MENTALLY WHAT THAT MEANS SO.
ARE. I RAISE IT BECAUSE IT I
THINK IT COULD- IT WOULD BE
CLEAR IF IT WAS A HIGHER A
HIGHER THRESHOLD THAN YOU KNOW
5% 3% HELP HOW FAR DOES THAT GO
SO I'M I'M GOING TO SUPPORT IT
BUT I JUST THINK THAT IT'S
OUGHT TO BE A CONSIDERATION

HE'S COMING TO A STREET FROM
ORANGE COUNTY HIS NAME IS
SENATOR MAN HE'S PRESENTING
ITEM NUMBER TEN SB SEVEN
NINETEEN. FOCUSING ON SURPLUS
LAND AND A FORMER MILITARY
BASES WE WELCOME. THE GOOD
SENATOR- COMMITTEE. WE'RE GOING
TO DISINFECT THE PODIUM AND
THEN WE'RE GONNA TURN THE FLOOR
OVER TO SENATOR MEN. TO BE TO
PRESENT SB. SEVEN NINETEEN.
GOOD AFTERNOON SENATOR THE
FLOOR IS YOURS AND SEVEN
NINETEEN MISTER CHAIR EXCELLENT
JOB AND STAYING IN OF MOVING
INTO COMMITTEE ALONG. MISTER
CHAIRMAN THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT SB SEVEN
NINETEEN TODAY. I'D LIKE TO
THANK THE CHAIRMAN COMMITTEE
STAFF. FOR THEIR DILIGENT AND
THOUGHTFUL WORK ON THIS BILL
AND I DO WANT TO SAY THE OUTSET
WE ARE ACCEPTING TAKE SUGGESTED
AMENDMENTS OUTLINED IN THE
COMMITTEE'S ANALYSIS. SB SEVEN
NINETEEN WOULD PROVIDE THE
TUSTIN LEGACY PROJECT WITH
LIMITED FLEXIBILITY UNDER THE
REVISED SURPLUS LAND ACT. WHILE
SETTING AGGRESSIVE A FORMAL
HOUSING TARGETS NOW FOR
BACKGROUND TESTING LEGACY IS A
MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT ON THE
SITE OF A FORMER MARINE CORPS
AIR STATION IN THE HEART OF
TUSTIN. THE CITY HAS BEEN
PLANNING AND EXECUTING THE
DEVELOPMENT OF TUSTIN LEGACY
FOR WELL OVER TWENTY YEARS.
THIS LAND WAS CONVERTED TO
CIVILIAN USE IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE FEDERAL BASE REALIGNMENT
AND CLOSURE ACT IN NINETEEN
NINETY NINE. ANY TUSTIN LEGACY
REDUCE PLAN AN ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT REPORT WERE PREPARED. BY
CONTAINS THE PROPERTY WAS
APPROVED ON THAT BASIS BY
AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE
DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE. AND THE
CITY OF TUSTIN BACK IN TWO
THOUSAND TWO. SINCE THAT TIME
OF THE LAND TRANSFER FROM THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO THE CITY
OF TUSTIN. EXTENSIVE
DEVELOPMENT HAS OCCURRED AS
PRESCRIBED IN THE REUSE PLAN.
FORMAL FOREIGN MILITARY BASES
HAVE BEEN UPDATED TO A VARIETY.
OF RESIDENTIAL EDUCATIONAL OPEN
SPACE AND COMMERCIAL USES-
SIGNIFICANT INFRASTRUCTURE
IMPROVEMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE AND
THAT'S NO ECEPTION IN TUSTIN
TODAY. WHERE THEY DEVELOPED
ABOUT ELEVEN HUNDRED ACRES OF
THE SITE SO FAR. I INCLUDING
THIRTY EIGHT HUNDRED FIFTY
SEVEN UNITS OF HOUSING- NEARLY
18% OF WHICH ARE RESTRICTED TO
MODERATE OR LOWER INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS. AND FOUR HUNDRED
HOMELESS SHELTER BEDS. NOW IT'S
IMPORTANT TO NOTE THAT THE
REVISED SURPLUS LANDS ACT DOES
NOT RECOGNIZE AGREEMENTS
BETWEEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
AND CITY- DOES NOT RECOGNIZED
FEDERALLY APPROVED REUSE PLANS
FOR FORMER MILITARY BASES. OR
AGGREGATE ENTITLEMENTS FOR
LARGE AREAS LIKE TUSTIN LEGACY
OF SURPLUS LAND ACT ON THE
OTHER HAND DOES AFFECT THE
CITY'S GOALS AND ABILITY TO
FUND INFRASTRUCTURE. CREATE
DIVERSE HOUSING OPPORTUNITIES
CREATE JOBS IN YOUR HOUSING AND
PROVIDE PUBLIC BENEFIT SHARED
BY THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY AT
TUSTIN LEGACY. THE CITY HAS
DONE ITS BEST BUT NEEDS
FLEXIBILITY UNDER THE REVISED
SLA TO ACHIEVE THE PREVIOUSLY
MENTIONED GOALS. AND ALSO TO ME
IT'S FEDERAL OBLIGATIONS FOR
REDEVELOPING THE FORMER BASE
AND I WOULD I WOULD JUST ADD
THAT- IT'S IMPORTANT TO THINK
ABOUT THE FACT THAT THE CITY
MAY HAVE A STRONG LEGAL
ARGUMENT. FOR DEVELOPING A BASE
NOTWITHSTANDING THE
REQUIREMENTS OF THE REVISED SLA
GIVEN ITS PRIOR AGREEMENT WITH
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT- BUT HE
HAS BEEN WORKING IN GOOD FAITH
TO DO ITS BEST TO TRY TO MEET
THE GOALS SET OUT IN THE S.
REVISED SLA. NOT MY BILL
SPECIFICALLY WOULD REQUIRE NEW
RESIDENTIAL UNITS BUILT ON THE
TUSTIN LEGACY SITE. TO MEET
EITHER THE FOLLOWING
AFFORDABILITY REQUIREMENTS IN
THE AGGREGATE. EITHER 20% OF
THE RESIDENTIAL UNITS WILL BE
ISSUED RESTRICTED TO PERSONS
AND FAMILIES OF LOW OR MODERATE
INCOME. FOR AT LEAST 15% OF THE
RESIDENTIAL UNITS. WOULD BE
RESTRICTED TO LOWER INCOME
HOUSEHOLDS AND 10% OF THOSE
UNITS AVAILABLE 10% YOU KNOW
UNITS AVAILABLE TO VERY LOW
INCOME HOUSEHOLDS. I AM TOLD
THAT THE CITY OF TUSTIN THAT
THEY'RE WORKING THEIR BEST TO
TRY TO ACTUALLY GET 15% LOW
INCOME. IN THE AGGREGATE- BUT
WE WANT IT WILL PLAY MAY NOT BE
ABLE TO DO THIS ON A PARCEL BY
PARCEL BASIS AS REQUIRED BY THE
SURPLUS LANDS ACT. THAT TUSTIN
LEGACY IS ON THE LAST REMAINING
OPPORTUNITIES ORANGE COUNTY TO
PROVIDE FOR DIVERSE MIX OF
HOUSING JOBS EDUCATIONAL OPEN
SPACE UNITS SB SEVEN NINETEEN
PROVIDES NEEDED FLEXIBILITY FOR
THEM TO MOVE FORWARD- AND THIS
BILL WILL FACILITATE THE
DEVELOPMENT OF THOUSANDS OF
HOUSING UNITS. AND HUNDREDS OF
AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNITS IN
TUSTIN WHICH OTHERWISE WILL NOT
BE BILLED BY EXPEDITING.
HOUSING COULD A PRODUCTION
BRINGING JOB INCREASING AT. TO

TO COMMITTEE LOOK I THINK THAT
I JUST REALLY QUICKLY ON THE
ISSUE OF A MAN'S- THAT THEY'D
AND I DON'T EVER WANT TO PUT
WORDS INTO CENTERS AND THAT
MEANS MATH WHAT ON THE
AMENDMENTS. AND THE NIMITZ DID
SLIGHTLY INCREASE THE
AFFORDABILITY REQUIREMENTS THAT
MUST BE MET- SO- LONG STORY
SHORT IT'S COMPLICATED BUT IT
DID SLIGHTLY INCREASE COMING
INTO COMMITTEE WITH THOSE
AMENDMENTS AND I KNOW THIS IS
AN ISSUE THAT SENATOR MAN IS
GOING TO CONTINUE TO WORK ON IS
HE- WOULD MOVE THE BILL
FORWARD. I BELIEVE THAT WE HAVE
CENTER WIENER WHO WOULD LIKE TO
BE TO SPEAK IN POTENTIALLY-
VICE CHAIR CENTER WIENER. I
THANK YOU MR CHAIRMAN- THANK
YOU THE AUTHOR- I'LL BE
SUPPORTING THE BILL TODAY. AND
I KNOW THAT THE AUTHOR WILL
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH- THE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
ORGANIZATIONS THAT HAVE. BY
CONCERNS BY- YOU KNOW SOMEONE
IS AUTHORED BILLS THAT HAVE HAD
AFFORDABILITY REQUIREMENTS AND
I KNOW THAT IT IS- IT IS.
COMPLICATED AND A LOT OF WAYS
BECAUSE WE ALL WANT TO HAVE THE
MOST AFFORDABLE HOUSING
IMPOSSIBLE FOR MAKING SURE.
THAT THE PROJECT IS STILL GOING
TO PENCIL OUT BECAUSE OF
PARTISAN PENCIL. THEN WE GET NO
MARKER RAY OR NO I KNOW
AFFORDABLE. AND AND I ALSO KNOW
THAT ON SOME OF THESE VERY
COMPLICATED SURPLUS LAND
PROJECTS A LOT OF SOME OF THEM
ARE NOT UNIQUE BUT THERE ARE
SOME LIKE THIS ONE APPEARS TO
BE THAT ARE. THAT CAN BE ARE
QUITE UNIQUE AND COMPLICATED IN
THEIR OWN WAYS AND I KNOW THAT
THIS IS A PROJECT THAT SHOULD
HAVE FRANKLY HAPPENED A LONG
TIME AGO AND HAS BEEN DELAYED
AND- HAS A REAL POTENTIAL TO
PRODUCE A LOT OF. HOUSINGS EVEN
THOUGH I. UNDER RISK BECAUSE OF
THE- OF THE THERE. LIVES
PERCOLATORS. BY FOR THEM SOME
OF THE SERVERS ALIGNED WITH
COMMON IN MANY WAYS- I ALSO
UNDERSTAND THE SITUATION HERE.
AND SOME HAPPY TO SUPPORT THE
BILL MOVE THE BILL- AND- AGAIN
I KNOW YOU'RE GOING TO CONTINUE
TO WORK. WITH THE FOLKS ARE
CONCERNED SO THANK YOU. THANK
YOU SO MUCH WITH THE MOTION ON
THE FLOOR BY CENTER WE ARE NOW
GOING TO TURN OVER TO THE VICE
CHAIR GOOD AFTERNOON MR. MR
RICHER CENTER NIELSEN DID YOU
WANT TO SPEAK ON THIS. THANK
YOU SO MUCH I MISS CENTER
ATHLETE CENTER DRAWS A- YES-
THANK YOU I'M GLAD TO SEE THAT
AMENDMENTS ARE. COMING FORWARD
FOR THE ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN
RAISED BUT I TO HAVE- LARA. OF
CONCERNS ABOUT THE NUMBERS AND
THE AND THE PERCENTAGES OF WHAT
WILL BE- LOW. VERY LOW INCOME
AND HIGHER. UP PERCENTAGE FOR
MODERATE INCOME HIGHER
PERCENTAGE BUT IT WOULDN'T
INCLUDE MODERATE- AND I DON'T
WANT TO REPEAT WHAT EVERYBODY
ELSE HAS SAID BUT IN A- THIS IS
THIS WAS- PUBLIC LAND. I THINK
THAT'S THE CONSIDERATION WHICH
IS QUITE DIFFERENT FROM YOU
KNOW AN ENTIRELY PRIVATE
SECTOR- SITUATION WHERE WE
NEED. ON ONE WEEK I UNDERSTAND
THE ISSUE PENCILING OUT- IS
MUCH HARDER. BUT IN THIS CASE
IT'S PUBLIC LAND- SO. I GUESS I
WOULD SUPPORT IT BUT I WOULD
REALLY. BURJEEL AND NEED YOU TO
CONTINUE TO PUSH IN THE
DIRECTION OF A HIGHER
PERCENTAGE. ESPECIALLY FOR
LOWER OR VERY LOW OR AT LEAST
YOU KNOW THAT THE TWENTY
PERCENT- THAT SAYS FOR LOW OR
MODERATE MEANS THAT THE ENTIRE
20% COULD GO TO MODERATE ABOUT
RIGHT AND I AND THAT'S I THINK
THE PART THAT BOTHERS ME THE
MOST IS THAT THAT'S WHERE WE
COULD END UP SO I DIDN'T QUITE
CATCH EVERYTHING THAT- YOUR-
SUPPORTERS ARE EXPERT WITNESSES
SAID- BUT THAT'S THE BOTTOM
LINE HERE WITH ME AND I. I
REALLY BROUGH JUDE TO ADDRESS
THAT MORE SPECIFICALLY THANK
YOU SENAOR OTHERS THOUGH I
APPRECIATE THE QUESTION AND-
TEN SENATOR WIENER'S POINT WE
ARE WORKING CONSTANTLY WITH THE
STOCK WITH THE CITY TESTING TO
TRY TO INCREASE THOSE NUMBERS I
THINK ONE OF THE CHALLENGES IS
THERE SO MANY DIFFERENT PARCELS
TO BE DEVELOPED AND IT'S JUST
ABOUT FINDING FINANCING- BUT I
THINK- I DON'T PUT WORDS IN
MAYOR CLARK'S MOUTH BUT BUT I
BELIEVE WE'RE PREPARED TODAY.
TO COMMIT 215% AGGREGATE LOW
VERY LOW AND EXTREMELY LOW SO
15% OF THE ADVOCATE UNITS
BUILT- GOING FORWARD WOULD BE
IN THAT CATEGORY- AND SO IT
WOULD NOT BE AS YOU RAISE THE
CONCERN LIKE 20% JUST ALL IN
THAT MODERATE RANGE 15% AT
LEAST WOULD BE LOW VERY LOW AND
EXTREMELY LOW IS THAT CORRECT.
MAYOR CLARK. HI WITH PERMISSION
FROM THE CHAIR TODAY PETROL

ONE POINT OH FOR THREE TO SEVEN
UNITS AND ONE POINT TWO FIVE
THREE TO TEN- AND- THE LOT SIZE
PROVISIONS. WILL BE AS LONG AS
THEY'RE IN THE BILL NOW WILL BE
REMOVED ON THERE WILL BE A NEW
REQUIREMENT. PROHIBITING LOCAL
AGENCIES FROM THE NINE YOUR
PRODUCT. SOLD BECAUSE EXIST LAW.
HAS A NON CONFORMING SIZE. AND
THERE ARE ALSO SOME- TECHNICAL
AMENDMENTS. RELATING A LOT
COVERAGE. SO THEY ARE ON THE
DOCUMENT YOU JUST HANDED OUT-
AND- MISTER JOHN. MISTER
CHAIRMAN I WANT TO THANK- YOU
IN YOURSELF FOR WORKING WITH US
AND WE'RE HAPPY TO. ACCEPT THE
COMMITTEES. AMENDMENTS TO
SENATE BEFORE SEVENTY EIGHT. IT
IS A VERY SOLID AMENDMENTS AND
IT'S- A ROBUST BILL IN A TINY
TIGHTENED UP AND SO WE REALLY.
PLEASE SHARE YOUR WORK WITH US
TO MAKE IT A STRONGER AND
BETTER BILL- SO COLLEAGUES SB
FOUR SEVENTY EIGHT IS ONE OF
THOSE VERY- TECHNICAL AND WONKY
BILLS SITES ALSO- IMPACTFUL- IT
HAS TO DO WITH FLOOR AREA RATIO
WHICH IS ABOUT. A SQUARE
FOOTAGE COPS- THAT ARE PLACED
ON BY CITIES FROM TIME TO TIME-
AND ALSO PARCEL SIZES. AND
REALLY WHAT THIS BILL IS ABOUT-
IS FUNDAMENTALLY MAKING SURE
THAT WHEN A CITY IS SUPPLIES TO
SMALL MULTI UNIT BETWEEN THREE
AND TEN YEAR NOTES. MAKING SURE
THAT WHEN THE CITY HAS LOCALLY
ZONES. FOR THREE TO TEN UNITS
SO WE'RE TALKING ABOUT ONE OF
CITY HAS MADE A DECISION THAT A
LOT IS ZONED FOR SOMEWHERE
BETWEEN THREE AND TEN UNITS.
THAT PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY ABLE
TO BUILD. THOSE THREE TO TEN
UNITS- AND THAT- AND THAT
SQUARE FOOTAGE REQUIREMENTS I
DO NOT. TAKE WITH ONE HAND WHAT
HAS BEEN GIVEN WHAT THE OTHER
THIS IS FUNDAMENTALLY ABOUT
SUSAN SHARING THAT WHEN THE
CITY HS ZONES. FOR THREE TO
TEN UNITS THAT YOU CAN ACTUALLY
BUILD THREE TO TEN UNITS- THERE
ARE SOME VERY RESTRICTIVE
SQUARE FOOTAGE CALLED FLOOR
AREA RATIO F. A. R.
REQUIREMENTS. THAT ARE SO
RESTRICTIVE BETTER CITY SAY
ZONES A LOT FOR SIX UNITS IN
THEIR GENERAL PLAN AND ZONING.
BUT IT IS PHYSICALLY IMPOSSIBLE
TO BUILD. ANYWHERE CLOSE TO SIX
UNITS BECAUSE OF THOSE OTHER.
REQUIREMENTS THIS BILL DOES NOT
WANT TO BE CLEAR. THIS BILL
DOES NOT. LOCAL ZONING WHATEVER
THE CITY HAS OWNED FOR THREE
FOUR FIVE SEVEN UNITS TEN
UNITS. THAT WILL APPLY WE DON'T
CHANGE IT ANYWAY IT DOES NOT
CHANGE THE APPROVAL PROCESS. IN
ANY WAY IT DOES NOT CHANGE THE
HEIGHT LIMITS OR THE SETBACKS
IT IS NOT CHANGED DESIGN
STANDARDS- IT IS LIMITED TO
JUST MAKING SURE. THAT PEOPLE
CAN BUILD WHAT A CITY HAS LOCAL
HE SAID YOU CAN BUILD IN TERMS
OF THE NUMBER. OF UNITS. AND
SO- THAT THAT'S THE BILL-
INSURER IT DOES NOT AFFECT
SINGLE FAMILY ZONES IN ANYWAY
IT TARTS. WHERE THIS IT'S IT
STARTS IN AREAS WHERE THE CITY
HAS OWN FOR THREE UNITS ARE
MORE. SO SINGLE FAMILY ZONES
ARE NOT IMPACTED IN ADDITION
RURAL AGRICULTURAL AREAS. ARE
NOT IMPACTED IN ANY WAY THIS IS
ABOUT URBANIZED. AREAS THAT
HAVE BEEN ZONED ALREADY LOCALLY
OFFER MULTI. UNIT SO COLLEAGUES
I APPRECIATE YOUR- YOUR TIME.

OVER THERE SAID YOU FEEL THE
MAN BUT I DON'T KNOW WHATTHEY

OPPOSITION TO THE BILL AND THE
FACT THAT IT WASN'T EVEN. READY
IT IS I DON'T UNDERSTAND OF ALL
THESE PEOPLE CAN SO ARDENTLY
SUPPORTED WHEN THEY CAN'T
POSSIBLY KNOW WHAT WAS IN IT

MUCH AND A MODERATOR AND I DO
APPRECIATE THAT THE CONCERN
THAT WAS JUST EXPRESSED- AND-
LOOK. HERE'S WHERE WE'VE BEEN
WE'VE BEEN IN. DISCUSSIONS IN
ACTIVE DISCUSSIONS FOR THE
LAST. COUPLE WEEKS NOW AND OUT
WORKING OUT THE DETAILS OF THIS
BILL- AND- IT IS INCREDIBLY
COMMON. HERE IN THE LEGISLATURE
TO BE ABLE TO HAVE BILLS- THAT
ERROR OF BEING AMENDED. COMING
INTO COMMITTEE- AND WE
PRESENTED TO EACH OF THE
COMMITTEE MEMBERS WITH AN
AMENDMENT SHEET THAT IS.
CURRENTLY IN FRONT OF US.
HIGHLIGHTING EACH OF THE
AMENDMENTS. HERE YEAH AND IT'S
PRESENTED WITH THE SENATOR. SO
LET'S TURN IT OVER TO THE
MAJORITY LEADER MR MAJORITY
LEADER DID YOU WANT TO SAY A
FEW WORDS. ON SB FOUR SEVENTY
PLEASE HAVE SOME QUESTIONS FOR
THE AUTHOR. BECAUSE LAST NIGHT
I WAS A HARD NO ON THIS BILL
AND THIS WAS JUST EXPRESSED.
BECAUSE OF THESE AMENDMENTS
WHICH I WANT TO BE CLEAR ON. IF
I COULD JUST TAKE A MOMENT SIR
BUT WITH RESPECT TO THAT AND I
YOU CAN EXPRESSED IT BUT I WANT
TO. PERSONALLY MASS THOSE
QUESTIONS IF IT'S OKAY WITH YOU
THANK YOU SIR FIRST. THIS
MEASURE DOES NOT APPLY TO
SINGLE FAMILY- REPRESENTING
CORRECT THAT'S CORRECT SECOND
TO DOES NOT APPLY TO DO SUPER
DUPLEX OWNING IS THAT CORRECT
THAT'S CORRECT THIRDLY IT
INCLUDES THE HISTORIC. WHAT
OVERLAYS OWNS INTERESTS IN IN
EXEMPTS THOSE ARE CORRECT
THAT'S ORRECT OKAY AND- SO IT
REALLY IS A- THIS NOTION AS YOU
EXPLAIN TRUTH IN ZONING SO THAT
HARMONIZES. THE ZONING OF AREAS
THAT THAT ARE MULTI FAMILY HAVE
THREE TO TEN BUT THAT THE FAA
ARE THE- FLOOR AREA-
REQUIREMENTS WOULD IT YOU KNOW
THE IT TO HARMONIZE IS THAT IS
WHAT WE'RE REALLY DOING IS THAT
CORRECT. THAT'S CORRECT AND YOU
HAVE AN OPINION OR ANY THE
EXPERTS YOU CONSULTED WITH HAVE
AN OPINION. IS WHAT IMPACT THEY
THINK THIS MIGHT HAVE IN
CALIFORNIA BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY
THE OBJECTIVE HERE. IS TO
INCREASE HOUSING RIGHT THAT'S
WHAT WE'RE ALL TRYING TO
ACCOMPLISH IS THERE ANY SENSE
THAT YOU HAVE FROM ALL THE
HOMEWORK THAT YOU'VE DONE OVER
THE YEARS AND THE HOUSING
SPACE. AS TO JUSTIN. MY DAD
USED TO SAY EYEBROW TEST WHAT
DO YOU THINK IMPACT THIS MIGHT
HAVE I MEAN I THINK IT WHAT IT
WILL DO. SO IF YOU LOOK THE
TURNER CENTER HAS ACTUALLY DONE
SOME REALLY GOOD WORK. ON
COMPILING F. A. R. REQUIREMENTS
AROUND THE STATE THERE CITIES
THAT DON'T HAVE A FOR YOUR
REQUIREMENTS AT ALL THERE
CITIES THAT HAVE- YOU KNOW. I
FOR YOUR REQUIREMENTS ALONG THE
LINES OF WHAT WE'RE PROPOSING
AND INNER CITIES THAT HAVE
LOWER F. A. OURS THE WHAT IT'LL
DO IS IT'LL SO WE REQUIRE
CITIES TO DO HOUSING ELEMENTS.
THAT SAY WHERE THE MULTI UNIT
IS WHAT'S GOING TO GET BILL
WHERE WHAT IT WILL DO IS I MEAN
THAT THAT HOUSING ELEMENT WILL
HAVE MEANING. THAT WHEN THEY
SAY THAT THE ZONE FOR ACCIDENT
REALLY MEANS I ALSO WILL HAVE A
REAL IMPACT THIS ISN'T LIKE A
TIDAL WAVE BUILDS OR ANYTHING
LIKE THAT. BUT IT WILL. ENABLE
A NUMBER OF THESE SMALLER
PROJECTS TO ACTUALLY GET THOUGH
THIS IS JUST ONE. ELEMENT RIGHT
THERE ARE OTHER THANK YOU KNOW
ISSUES THAT THE BILL DOESN'T
DEAL WITH BUT IT'S ONE AREA
THAT WILL MAKE THESE ZONES
PLANS. HOUSING PLANS ACTUALLY
MEANINGFUL BUT MR CUSTOMER
QUICK QUESTION. LIESER FLOOR
ERROR RATIO. WE DO. THE FOR
THREE SO UNITS TO ONE OCHRE
CORRECT. AND THE FLOOR AREA
RATIOS REDUCED ONE POINT TWO
FIVE H. TEN USE THAT CORRECT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH APPRECIATE
THANK YOU MR THANK YOU SO MUCH
FOR SURGERY LEADER APPRECIATE
THAT WOULD LIKE TO GO TO SEE IF
THERE'S ANY ADDITIONAL
QUESTIONS COMMENTS PLEASE
CENTER PROJECT BUT BEFORE YOU
DECIDE LIKE MR ON A FIVE. WHAT
IF I WANT AND I JUST WANT TO
TELL YOU. LOOK I JUST SOUNDS
GOOD TO ME I JUST IF I COULD IS
ADAM RESPECT I'M TO VOTE FOR
THIS TODAY. TO KEEP THIS MOVING
BUT I JUST WANT TO RESERVE THE
RIGHT TO REVIEW THE DETAILS AS
THIS. CAME IN THE LAST MINUTE
AND WE'RE TRYING TO GO THROUGH
IT TO MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T WE
THINK IT DOES SO I WILL.
ACCOMMODATE THE- AUTHOR TODAY
BUT I RESERVE THE RIGHT IS IT
REALLY GETS TO THE FLOOR. TO
CHANGE MY OPINION. DEPENDING
UPON THE DETAILS AS I. REVIEW
THE STUFF I THINK IT'LL BE OKAY
BUT I JUST WANNA MAKE SURE I
GOT IT RIGHT. THANK YOU. THANK
YOU. SANTA ROSA. THANK YU-
FIRST I DO WANT TO. ACKNOWLEDGE
AND THANK THE AUTHOR. OF FOR
CONTINUING TO MEET AND TO
ADDRESS THESE. THESE ISSUES I
KNOW THIS IS A- AN AREA OF
EXPERTISE FOR YOU- SO I- I
STILL HAVE SOME OUTSTANDING
CONCERNS YOU AND I WILL
CONTINUE TO TALK ABOUT IT
THAT'S WHAT YOU'VE TOLD ME-
INDIVIDUALLY- BUT I WANT TO LAY
OUT HERE- FOR FOLKS TO
UNDERSTAND WHERE I'M COMING
FROM. A AND MY DISTRICT IN IN
LOS ANGELES WHICH IS NORTHEAST
LA EAST LA BOYLE HEIGHTS- MY
DISTRICT 77% OF THE RESIDENTS
RENT. THAT'S MORE THAN ANY
OTHER ARM DISTRICT IN THE STATE
OF CALIFORNIA 77% MY CONCERN
IS- AND WE HAVE TO FIND A WAY
TO ADDRESS THIS IS ONLY MAKE
CHANGES LIKE THIS. IN MY
DISTRICT WHERE THERE'S
OVERCROWDED- IT'S OVERCROWDING
NOT JUST FROM IN THE
NEIGHBORHOOD BUT THERE'S IT'S
ALSO OVERCROWDING INSIDE. THE
DWELLINGS THE APARTMENTS- AND
WHAT THIS PRESENTS IS AN
OPPORTUNITY- FOR FOLKS TO COME
ALONG. BY DEMOLISH DISPLAYS-
BECAUSE THEY'LL BE ABLE TO MAKE
A HUGE PROFIT FROM IT AND SO
THIS IS THE CONCERN THAT I
CARRY ON BEHALF OF THE
COMMUNITY- AND IBM I'M GRATEFUL
THAT THE AUTHORS SAID HE WOULD
CONTINUE TO MEET WITH THIS- I
DON'T HAVE SPECIFIC. LANGUAGE
TO ADDRESS THAT- BUT I'M SURE
WE COULD COME UP WITH IT SO I'M
GOING TO SUPPORT TODAY-
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE YOU. CHAU
ALWAYS SHOW THE WILLINGNESS TO
SIT DOWN AND TALK- BUT- I TO
I'M LOOKING FOR A SOLUTION FOR
THAT BECAUSE WE'VE BEEN TALKING
ABOUT THIS EVERY TIME A HOUSING
BILL COMES UP- AND I WANT TO
MAKE SURE. JUST AS YOU BIG THEN
EXEMPTED DUPLEXES EXEMPTED A
LOCAL HISTORIC DISTRICTS IT'S
LIMITED TO URBANIZED AND URBAN
CLUSTERS NO RURAL I MEAN
THERE'S ALL THESE. EXEMPTIONS
AND IT GETS TIGHTER AND TIGHTER
INTO CERTAIN AREAS SO. THOSE
ARE MY CONCERNS AND I'M I'M
GLAD WE'RE GOING TO NEED TO
TALK THANK YOU- FROM AMATEUR
RESPOND THANK YOU CENTER THERE
ARE SERVER THAT OF COURSE WE I
LOOK FORWARD TO CHATTING A
COUPLE OF THINGS WHEN WE SAY
THE URBANIZED AREAS URBAN
CLUSTERS EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE
DISTRICT OF MY DISTRICT ARE
OBVIOUSLY. VERY URBAN IT'S WELL
BEYOND THAT I MEAN IT'S A IT'S
SUBURBAN AREA IT'S BIG SWATHS
OF THE STATE WHICH DOES. NOT
MAKE CLEAR THAT LIKE RURAL
AGRICULTURAL AREAS OR NOT-
INCLUDED- AND IN TERMS THIS
PLACEMENT JUST TO BE CLEAR-
THIS BILL THE AS USUAL A LOT OF
TIMES WHEN WE TALK ABOUT-
DISPLACEMENT APPEAR
DISPLACEMENT. IT'S ABOUT ONE
AREA IS BEING REZONED SO IT'S
NOW IT'S OWN FOR TWO UNITS WERE
GOING TO CHANGE THAT TO TWENTY
UNITS WRITES OR CREATES
INCENTIVES TO. REDEVELOP WAR WE
STREAMLINE THE APPROVAL PROCESS
SO IT DOESN'T HAVE TO GO
THROUGH. SEQUEL ANYMORE BOB AND
IN THE BILL THAT I'VE AUTHORED
THAT DO THAT THE CHANGES OWNING
OR THAT EXPEDITE THE APPROVAL
PROCESS I ALWAYS INCLUDE ANTI
DEMOLITION. PROTECTIONS IN
THERE WE CAN ALWAYS HAVE A
DISCUSSION ABOUT WHAT THE SCOPE
OF THOSE SHOULD BE BUT TO ME
THAT'S VERY IMPORTANT I DON'T
WANT BILLS THAT I AUTHOR. TO
LEAD TO DISPLACEMENT OF PEOPLE
AND KNOCKING DOWN OF SOUND
HOUSING THE PEOPLE WERE LIVING
IN OUR PEOPLE GET EVICTED AND
THEN A YEAR LATER THEY-
DEMOLISH IT. ON SOME VERY
MINDFUL OF THAT- BUT THE EASIER
THIS BILL- I GET IT ALL IT DOES
IS SAYS IF THE ZONING IS
ALREADY IN PLACE. BENTOS HONOR
THAT'S OWNING AND IT DOESN'T
IMPROVE PROJECT AT ALL SO- BUT
WITH THAT SAID I DO LOOK
FORWARD TO SITTING DOWN WITH
YOU BECAUSE I THINK YOU AND I

DETAILS TO FINALIZE BUT I- MR
WATCHING HIS CLIENTS WORKING
CONTINUE TO FINALIZE THE
LANGUAGE AND- AND THEN ON IT
WOULD I WOULD ANTICIPATE TAKING
THOSE AMENDMENTS- IN THE-
ENERGY COMMITTEE IN A FEW
WEEKS- IF. BILL PASSES OUT
TODAY. BY THE COLLEAGUES- THIS
IS PIECE SEVENTY- IS A BILL-
DESIGNED TO- TO OUR FACILITATE
THE PERMITTING OF- OF. THOSE OF
SMALL SOLAR AND ENERGY STORAGE-
INSTALLATIONS ON. RESIDENTIAL
ROOFTOP THIS ISN'T ABOUT LIKE
LARGE SCALE IS ABOUT SMALL
INSTALLATIONS. ON THIS
LEGISLATURE YEARS AGO PASSED
LEGISLATION TO STREAMLINE. THE
PERMITTING- BUT WE STILL HAVE
SITUATIONS WHERE IT CAN THE
PRINTING PROCESS CAN BE VERY
DELAYED FOR A VARIETY OF
REASONS- WHICH INCREASE COSTS
FOR HOMEOWNERS AND JUST DELAYS.
THE INSTALLATION OF SYSTEMS
THAT ARE VERY IMPORTANT IN
TERMS OF. MEDIA CLEAN ENERGY
GOALS INCREASING RESILIENCY AS
WE LOOK FORWARD- TRAGICALLY TO
WHAT I HOPE WILL NOT BE ANOTHER
BAD WILD FIRE SEASON BUT- IT
PASSES PROLOGUE- YOU KNOW. WE
NEED TO BE. PREPARED BY THE
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY THE U. S.
DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY AND
CONSULTATION WITH A WIDE ARRAY
OF STAKEHOLDERS INCLUDING CODE-
CODE ORGAN. BUILDING CODE
ORGANIZATIONS AND SO FORTH- HAS
CREATED- AN OPTICAL SOLAR OP-
THAT. OUR CITIES CAN USE TO.
BASED ONLINE- EXPEDITED
PERMITTING- THIS OP BASED
ONLINE PERMITTING HAS SOME
CITIES ARE ALREADY ADOPTING IN
ADOPTED A LA- AS EITHER A
DOCTOR IS MOVING TOWARDS
ADOPTION OF ITS OWN VERSION.
BILLS IS NOT TO SAY YOU HAVE TO
USE A PARTICULAR APPLE THAT WE
ANTICIPATE PEOPLE. WILL
GENERALLY USE SOLAR OUT BECAUSE
US DEPARTMENT RG DID A GREAT
JOB. ON THIS OP THE OP IS FREE-
BUT WE ALSO HAVE IN THE BILL-
THERE'S A PARALLEL BUDGET. ITEM
THAT IS MOVING FORWARD TO
REPURPOSE AND SOLAR RELATED
FUNDING. TO THE CITY'S CAN
ACCESS GRANTS. TO DEFRAY ANY
COSTS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN
SETTING UP- THE PROGRAM. THERE
IS A SICK OUT TO DO THIS- AND
FRANKLY AS WE ALL SOMETIME
THERE'S INERTIA- AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL AND THERE MAY BE SOME
OFFICIALS THAT. WANT TODO IT
BUT THIS WILL BE A PUSH TO
ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT THE BILL
DOES NOT HAVE PENALTIES FOR NOT
DOING IT WE'RE NOT LOOKING TO
BE PUNITIVE. BUT THIS IS A PUSH
TO GET MORE CITIES- TO ACTUALLY
DO THIS AND WE THINK THAT- IT
WILL BE GOOD FOR CITIES ARE
STILL GOING TO GET THE SAME-
PERMIT FEES THAT THEY WOULD
HAVE GOTTEN WITH- THE CURRENT
WAY OF DOING THINGS- AND AS
THE- CITY OF SAN JOSE- LEARN
WHEN THEY IMPLEMENTED THIS.
THEIR PERMIT NUMBERS WENT UP BY
6100% SEVENTY MORE SOLAR. I'M
MORE PERMIT FEES. FOR THE CITY-

INTERESTED IN SOLAR AND ENERGY
STORAGE. I THINK I WANT TO
