IMPORTANT THIS BILL AS I ONLY
RECENTLY FIGURED OUT THAT THE
BROWN ACT OF NINETEEN FIFTY
THREE WAS ALSO ASSEMBLY BILL

GOOD SIGN OF THAT AND HOW WE
CAN MODERNIZE OUR PUBLIC

THAT MORE PEOPLE INCLUDING A
PROCESS RIGHT NOW IT ONLY
APPLIES TO CITY COUNCILS AND
COUNTY BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
WITH OVER TWO HUNDRED FIFTY.
THOUSAND POPULATION AND WE'RE

CALIFORNIANS HAVE THE ABILITY
TO PARTICIPATE IN THE LOCAL
GOVERNMENT DECISION MAKING
PROCESS BY EXPANDING
OPPORTUNITIES TO JOIN PUBLIC
MEETINGS. THEY MAKE PUBLIC

AND OF WHERE WE ARE IN THE- OF
OUR BASED PARTICIPATION BIG
ACROSS. OUR CITY HALL. WE
FINALLY HAD PROBLEM REGARDING
MY OUT. FOR EVERY POSITION WE
HAD IN OUR COMMISSIONS AND
COMMITTEE. WE CAN'T CRAWL BCK
INTO THE DARK IN A WAY FOR
BEING TRANSPARENT TO THE
PUBLIC. BY RETURNING BACK TO
THE VERY PRESENT EXISTED BEFORE
WE ARE DOING THE PEOPLE'S
BUSINESS AND I MEAN. THAT MEANS
WE NEED TO DO IT ON THEIR TIME
WHETHER COMMUTING HOME COOKING
DINNER FOR FAMILY PUTTING HIM
DOWN OF THAT STUDY FOR YOUR MID
TERMS WORKING. OR ENJOYING OUR
BACK CALIFORNIA RECREATION
OPPORTUNITIES. SECURITY COUNCIL
ON APRIL NINETEENTH APPROVED
THE CONTRACT YOU UPGRADE OUR
AUDIO VISUAL EQUIPMENT. IN THE

WITH THE STEPS WE HAVE TAKEN TO
INCLUDE A HYBRID MODEL. THAT
ALLOWS ALL MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC TO PARTICIPATE. ALTHOUGH
GO RATED IT MANDATED FOLLOW THE
BILL EVEN A SMALL STUDIO FIFTY
SEVEN THOUSAND HAD THE
COMMITMENT ABOUT THE NEED TO
FOLLOW THE PROVISIONS. I DON'T
SEE WHY LARGER CITY COUNCIL.
AND BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
MEETING CAN'T DO THE SAME AB
THREE THREE NINE WOULD
ESTABLISH STANDARDS PROPOSED IN
BOTH. AGENDAS IN DIRECTION. I
JOIN THE MEETING VIA
TELECONFERENCE CONFERENCE
TECHNOLOGY IN A TIMELY MANNER.
AND I EASILY ACCESSIBLE
LOCATION ONLINE. LAST WEEK VERY
CLEAR STANDARDS THAT ENSURE THE
EQUITABLE PROVISION OF ACCESS.
TO PUBLIC MEETINGS ARE
NECESSARY TO ENSURE A
GOVERNMENT THAT IS ACCOUNTABLE
TO HIS CONSTITUENTS. OUR
DEMOCRACY CANNOT FUNCTION- LET.
EVERYONE IS ABLE TO PARTICIPATE
EQUALLY THANK YOU ANY
CONCLUSION I RESPECTFULLY ASK
YOUR IBM. CUSTOMER THANK YOU SO
MUCH YOUR LEADERSHIP GREAT TO

SNYDER FROM THE FIRST AND THEN
MAKE A COALITION. MISTER SNYDER
WE MAY ACTUALLY HAVE GINNI THE
ROW- INSTEAD OF MISTER SNYDER
BUT LET'S CHECK INTO ENGINEER
DAVID. ON THE LINE FROM THE
PERSON IN THE COALITION. I HERE
DAVID HEY MISTER SNYDER THANK

AFFAIRS WE HELP JOURNALISTS
ACTIVISTS ACADEMICS. AND MANY
OTHERS ACT THAT THEIR
GOVERNMENT WE DO SO BY
PROVIDING EDUCATION. ONE ON ONE
LEGAL COUNSLING LITIGATION AND
MORE ARE ON THE DURING AND
WITHOUT IN DISTRICT TWO. AND
WE'RE IN STRONG SUPPORT OF AB
THREE THREE NINE. WE BELIEVE
THAT THE HELP OF ANY DEMOCRACY
DEPENDS ON THE ABILITY OF THE
PEOPLE TO PARTICIPATE IN THAT
DEMOCRACY TO OBSERVE. AND
INTERACT SELECTED AND APPOINTED
OFFICIALS. THEY HAVE THEIR
VOICES HEARD. AT LOCAL
GOVERNMENT LEVEL THIS MEANS
BEING ABLE TO SEE AND HEAR. AND
IMPORTANTLY TO SPEAK AT PUBLIC
MEETINGS IN REAL TIME. BEING
ABLE TO PARTICIPATE IN PUBLIC
MEETINGS YOU MEAN HAVING TO
ARRANGE CHILDCARE. OR TAKE TIME
OFF WORK. GETTING A RIDER
PAYING FOR TRANSIT TRAVELING
LONGER DISTANCES WITHIN RURAL
COMMUNITIES ARE WORSE. BEING
ABLE THOSE. UNABLE TO
PARTICIPATE DUE TO HEALTH
CONCERNS OR DISABILITIES. THAT
THE BURDEN SO HIGH THAT IT MADE
MEANINGFUL PARTICIPATION OUT OF
REACH. FOR MANY. AND IT LEFT
GOVERNMENT THREE TO MAKE
DECISIONS WITHOUT INPUT FROM
THE COMMUNITY. THERE'S ONE
SILVER LINING FROM THE PANDEMIC
THAT ACT THAT THE GOVERNMENT
DECISION MAKING. BECAME
AVAILABLE TO A BROADER RANGE OF
PEOPLE THAN IT WAS BEFORE.
EIGHTY THREE THREE NINE WOULD
ENSURE THESE. GAMES ARE NOT
LOST. AB ONE BOARD SUPERVISORS
MEETING IN. OF POPULAR OVER.
ABOUT IT WOULD REQUIRE THEM TO
PROVIDE CONSTITUENTS WILL
EITHER A AND- INTERNET BASED
OPTIONS FOR PARTICIPATION. FOR
THE PAST YEAR AND A HALF
AGENCIES DEMONSTRATED THAT THEY
CAN PROVIDE. BACK THAT. LOCAL
DEMOCRACY IN CALIFORNIA DEPENDS
ON TRANSPARENCY FOR ITS HELP.
WITH LIABILITY THE BILITY SERVE
THE PEOPLE OF OUR STATE. THE
FIRST AMENDMENT COALITION URGES
THE COMMITTEE TO ENSURE THAT
LEVEL OF ACCESS. IS MAINTAINED
AS PROVIDED FOR IN EIGHTY THREE

OPPOSITION WITNESS. OF AB THREE
THREE NINE THE FLOOR IS YOURS
YOU HAVE TO MINISTER. THANK YOU
GOOD AFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS AS YOU SAID JEFF BEAL
WITH CALIFORNIA STATE
ASSOCIATION OF COUNTIES. ALSO
SPEAKING TODAY ON BEHALF OF MY
COLLEAGUES AT THE LEAGUE OF
CALIFORNIA CITIES- BECAUSE OUR
COLLECTIVE EXPERIENCE OF THE
PAST YEAR AND A HALF AS- HAS
CHANGED THE CONVERSATION.
AROUND THE BROWN ACT IN A
NUMBER OF THOUGHT PROVOKING
WAYS. AS THE SUPPORTERS NOTED
WE FOUND OUT THAT. IN MANY
CASES AND UNDER CERTAIN SETS OF
RULES REMOTE MEETINGS WORK-
UNFORTUNATELY EIGHTY THREE
THREE NINE. IT DOESN'T
IMPLEMENT THE RULES THAT PUBLIC
AGENCIES HAVE BEEN WORKING
UNDER INDEPENDENT JUST ONE.
SPECIFIC. REQUIREMENT OF IT.
WE'RE CONCERNED THAT RETAINING
THE WAY PROBE. PURCHASE BUT NOT
THE PIECES BE EXECUTIVE ORDERS
THAT HAVE ALLOWED MORE
FLEXIBILITY IN MANAGING PUBLIC
COMMENT WE'LL SEE MORE. LOCAL
AGENCY MEETINGS OF THE
DEFECTIVE ONES ANYWAY TOO OFTEN
DISTRACTED BY THINGS THAT WE
HAVE BEEN ACTING OVER THE PAST
YEAR. EXAMPLES BEING- HUNDREDS
OF CALLERS CALLING IN FROM OUT
OF STATE ON HOT BUTTON ISSUES
SUCH AS PUBLIC REQUIREMENTS. OR
ANOTHER EXAMPLE FROM JUST LAST
WEEK AT THE MEETING THE HEAD
SEVEN HUNDRED CALLERS ON THE
SINGLEISSUE. UNDER THE
EXECUTIVE ORDERS LOCAL AGENCIES
HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MANAGE
DISRUPTIONS AND MANAGE
OVERWHELMING NUMBERS OF
PARTICIPANTS FIVE. FOR EXAMPLE
LIMITING THE TOTAL TIME FOR
PUBLIC COMMENT IN A WAY THAT
YOU SHOULD BE FAMILIAR TO
EVERYONE SITTING ON THIS
COMMITTEE. IT'S A SOLUTION THAT.
HONORS THAT DIVERSITY OF VOICES.
WHY ASO ALLOW GETS TO A- BE
NAY ON THE MATTER SUPPORT
IMPORTANCE- BUT FLEXIBILITY
AREN'T IN THIS BILL. I WILL SAY
WE'VE HAD EXTREMELY PRODUCTIVE
CONVERSATIONS WITH THE AUTHOR
AND I WHEN I THINK ASSEMBLY
MEMBER LEE AND HIS STAFF. FOR
THOSE CONVERSATIONS OVER THE
PAST TWO WEEKS AND- WE JUST HAD
MORE TIME TO WORK TOGETHER I
FEEL HOPEFUL THAT WE BE ABLE TO
COME TO AN AGREEMENT ON HOW TO.
OPEN THE BROWN ACT OF THE
MODERN ERA. OF COURSE ONE WILL
THAT CHANGE YOUR INDEPENDENT
BECAUSE THAT ADDITION TO THE
PUBLIC ELECTED AND APPOINTED
OFFICIALS WERE ABLE TO
PARTICIPATE REMOTELY WITHOUT
PUBLISHING THEIR ADDRESS ARE
OPENING THEIR HOMES TO MEMBERS
OF THE PUBLIC. WHICH SHOULD TO
WORK OKAY. I SUSPECT WAS ONE.
REASON WHY GILROY WAS FINALLY
ABLE TO FILL ALL THE SPOTS ON
THE BOARDS AND COMMISSION
BECAUSE- THOSE APPOINTED
OFFICIALS COULD PARTICIPATE
REMOTELY. I'M MORE TIME WOULD
ALSO ALLOW US TO STUDY. WHAT
DIFFERENT PUBLIC AGENCIES DID
OVER THE PERIOD A LOCKDOWN WHAT
WORKED WHAT DIDN'T SIMILAR TO
THE LITTLE HOOVER COMMISSION
REPORT. WAS JUST RELEASED A FEW
DAYS AGO- HOPEFUL TO WORK ON
THIS ISSUE WITH ASSEMBLY MEMBER
LEE AND YOU MISTER CHAIR IN THE

AT THIS TIME MISTER CARE RAMOS
MATTER WE'LL TALK TO YOU IN
JUST A FEW MOMENTS THIS RING
BACK TO COMMITTEE TO HAVE
QUESTIONS COMMENTS OR SOMEONE
LIKE TO BRING FOR THE MOTION WE
HAVE QUESTIONS BY SIR WIENER
PLEASE. OUR SYSTEM REMOVE THE
BILL- ANTICYCLONES FIRST OF
ALL- AND I SUPPORT THIS BILL- I
DO AGREE WITH- WITH C. SACK
THAT WE'RE LONG PAST TO TAKE A
BROADER LOOK AT THE BROWN ACT
AND HOW IT CAN BE MODERNIZED ON
HAVING SPENT A NUMBER OF YEARS-
ON THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS IN
SAN FRANCISCO SUBJECT THE
PRODUCT ARE MANY GOOD THINGS IN
THE BROWN ACT BUT BUT IT WAS
DEFINITELY WRITTEN. IN A
DIFFERENT ERA AND I THINK OUR-
REPRESENTATIVES HE SACKED-
REYES SOME EXAMPLES OF WAYS
WHERE THE PRODUCT IS JUST WAY
OUT OF DATE AND WE MAKE A VERY
VERY HARD AT TIMES FOR LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS REALLY OPERATE
EFFECTIVELY IN A COMMON SENSE
WAY- AND THAT'S AGAIN THE
THOUGHT HE KNEW HERE THERE FOR
THIS PARTICULAR BILL BUT I
THINK IT'S A VERY VALID POINT-
TO RAISE. I WILL SAY- IN TERMS
OF WHAT WE'VE SEEN WITH PUBLIC
COMMENT- AND THE CONCERN I
THINK HE MENTIONED THAT THERE
WAS A TIME WHEN SEVEN HUNDRED
PEOPLE CALL THEN YOUR LOCAL
GOVERNMENT UNLIKE. THE
LEGISLATURE DOES HAVE THE
ABILITY TO PUT. THE LIMITS
ALTHOUGH I THINK THERE SOME.
VALVES SITUATIONS WHERE LOCAL
GOVERNMENT CAN DO THAT BUT THEY
SHOULD HAVE SOME MORE
FLEXIBILITY OF. APPARENTLY
ENTIRE PROCESS IS BEING
COMPLETELY OVERWHELMED- WHEN I
WAS ON THE VERGE SUPERVISORS WE
HAD SOME WE HAD NO TELEPHONIC
COURSE WE HAD THERE WERE
HEARINGS OR WE HAD EIGHT HOURS
OF PUBLIC COMMENT WHERE PEOPLE
JUST. CAME DOWN THE OLD FASHION
WAY AND IT TOOK SIX SEVEN EIGHT
HOURS OR EVEN MORE- SO EVEN
WITH LIVE TESTIMONY YOU CAN
REALLY HAVE AN OVERWHELMING
AMOUNT OF. A PUBLIC TESTIMONY
AND I WILL ALSO SAY THAT I WHEN
WE WENT TO TELEPHONIC TESTIMONY
HERE NUMBER THING OH BOY STATE
OF FORTY MILLION PEOPLE PLUS
PEOPLE FROM ALL OVER THE
COUNTRY- YOU KNOW WE'RE GONNA
HAVE LIKE INTERNET. CALL IN
TESTIMONY IN WHAT IS THAT GOING
TO BE LIKE. AND I AS A
COMMITTEE MEMBER AND ALSO AS A
CHAIR. THERE'S ONLY BEEN A FEW
TIMES HEN WE REALLY HAVE A
LIMIT- THE TIME OR THE TIMING-
BECAUSE IT'S BEEN PRETTY RARE
THAT WE TIED. YOU KNOW A REALLY
OVERWHELMING NUMBER OF PEOPLE
SO I THINK THE- ESPECIALLY THIS
IS- JUST FOR US TO BE SO
EXTENDING THIS FOR A COUPLE OF
YEARS- YOU KNOW AS WE'RE COMING
OUT OF THE PANDEMIC AND PEOPLE
USED TO IT AND- YOU KNOW I. I
THINK IT MAKES A LOT OF SENSE
AND THEN WE CAN REEVALUATE. AND
AGAIN I HOPE WE WILL TAKE A
BROADER LOOK BUT I'M NOT GOING
TO MOVE THE BALL. THANK YOU SO
MUCH. MISTER SENATOR VERY
GRATEFUL BUT I COULD DO A FINAL
CALL FOR QUESTIONS COMMENTS
FROM COMMITTEE WHICH MOTION ON
THE FLOOR PERSON WIENER MOTION
FOR BY SIR WIENER. ANY
ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS COMMENTS
HERE AND SEE NINE SOME RELIEF
THE PLEASURE TO WORK WITH THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR
COLLABORATION. GREAT BELL- AND
WE'LL LET YOU CLOSE. THANK YOU
SO MUCH I WANT TO THANK THE
COMMITTEE SENT TO THE CHAIR FOR
A DUE DILIGENCE AND- ATTENTION
TO THIS BILL. I DO ACKNOWLEDGE
THAT THE OPPOSITION ITS EXACT
AS A VERY VALID POINT I THINK
THERE IS A WAY THAT CAN
MODERNIZE THE BROWN ACT PAUL.
HAVING MORE PUBLIC
PARTICIPATION WILL OFFICIAL
SITE I THINK THEY'RE VALID
POINTS THAT IS MY COMMITMENT TO
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH THE
OPPOSITION AND ALL.
REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL
MUNICIPALITIES TO BE WORKING ON
THE EXTENT. BUT YOU KNOW AS WE
DID SEE IT RIGHT NOW IS
OVERLYING EVAN THAT MAKE IS
THAT WE CAN USE TECHNOLOGY TO
OPEN THE DOORS OF DEMOCRACY
EVEN IF IT MIGHT NOT BE
LITERALLY DOING SO. AND HAVING
THAT PARTICIPATION I THINK IT'S
ALWAYS A GOOD THING BECAUSE- I
AM SURE WE OFTEN HEARD HOW WE
LACK PARTICIPATION LONG TIMES
BUT NOW WE KIND OF SEPARATE
THEM OPPOSITE PROBLEM. SO IF WE
CAN ENCOURAGE MORE FRUSTRATION
FOR TAWDRY IT'S ALWAYS GOOD AND
YOU HAVE MY- AND IT'LL PROMISE
I'LL BE BACK FOR THIS COMMITTEE
WORKING ON A SIMILAR ISSUE

WORK ON THIS ITEM OF THE LAST
COUPLE OF WEEKS AB FOUR TWENTY
EIGHT IS RATHER SIMPLE AND IT
STRIKES AT THE CORE OF OUR
DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTIONS WE MUST
ENSURE THAT OUR LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS ARE STRUCTURED IN A
WAY THAT LEADS TO THE BEST
ELECTED REPRESENTATION POSSIBLE
AT THIS BILL GUARANTEES
ACCOUNTABILITY FOR COUNTY
SUPERVISORS BY ALLOWING THEM TO
STAND FOR REELECTION AND GAIN
EXPERTISE ON THE JOB THROUGH A
MINIMUM OF TWO ELECTED TERMS IN
OFFICE WILL ALSO CONTINUE TO
ALLOW THEM ADEQUATE
COMPENSATION IS LAID ON THE
CALIFORNIA CONSTITUTION SO.
THAT WE'VE GOT QUALIFIED
CANDIDATES FROM ALL WALKS OF
LIFE THAT ARE NOT JUST
INDEPENDENTLY WEALTHY. AB FOUR
TWENTY EIGHT DOES NOT CONTAIN A
RETROACTIVE CLAUSE. AND WILL
NOT DIRECTLY OVERTURN ANY LOCAL
MEASURE HOWEVER A RECENT LOCAL
MEASURE. HIGHLIGHTED A
DEFICIENCY IN STATE LAW THAT WE

JOINED I THINK WITH A COUPLE OF
FOLKS- IS JEAN HURST AVAILABLE.

REPRESENTATIVES OF CALIFORNIA.
I IN SUPPORT OF ASSEMBLY MEMBER
MAYES IS AB FOUR AT TWENTY
EIGHT. ARE WE ARE COLLECTIVELY
IN STRONG SUPPORTER OF THIS
CHANGE IN STATUTE TO ENSURE AN
APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF COMMITMENT
TO THE OFFICE OF OUNTY
SUPERVISOR. A LEVEL OF
EXPERTISE AND ACCOUNTABILITY TO
THE OFFICE. AND THE CONTINUITY
OF GOVERNMENT THEY CALIFORNIANS
CAN BE CONFIDENT IN. MY COUNTY
SUPERVISORS IN CALIFORNIA AND
LIKE IN MOST PARTS OF THE
COUNTRY. ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR A
WIDE ARRAY OF FEDERAL STATE AND
LOCAL SERVICES. THIS IS BECOME
MOST EVIDENT OVER THE LAST YEAR
IS COUNTY SERVED AS THE FRONT
LINE RESPONSE TO THE PANDEMIC.
AND CERTAINLY UNDERSCORES THE
NEED. FOR TIME FOR SUPERVISORS
TO GAIN ACCESS EXPERTISE AND
EXPERIENCE IN MANAGING A
COMPLEX A COMPLEX THAT. OF
SERVICE OBLIGATIONS OF
FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES. A
SINGLE TERM SIMPLY DOES NOT
ALLOW FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF
SUCH EXPERTISE. AND AS A RESULT
OUR MEMBERS ARE CONCERNED ABOUT
WHAT A SINGLE TERM LIMIT WOULD
MEAN. FOR COUNTY POLICYMAKING.
AND SERVICE PROVISION AT THE
LOCAL LEVEL. IF YOU KNOW COUNTY
SUPER. TAKE THEIR RESPONSE
SERIOUSLY AND ALL WITH NON THAT
REQUIRED TO DEVELOP EXPERTISE
AND UNDERSTANDING OF THE WIDE
ARRAY OF DUTIES OF THE ROLE. AS
A RESULT WE RESPECTFULLY URGE

BEHALF OF THIS YEAR YOU
CALIFORNIA- AS YOU. WELL AWARE
IF YOU'RE YOU'VE BEEN ON BOTH
SIDES OF THE- DEBATE ABOUT TERM
LIMITS THAT WE- MOSTLY OPPOSE
THEM AT THE STATE LEVEL. OFTEN
SUPPORTED THEM AT THE LOCAL
LEVEL- IN EACH INSTANCE TRYING
TO STRIKE THE BALANCE BETWEEN.
EXPERTISE AND BRINGING NEW
BLOOD AND NEW IDEAS TO.
GOVERNMENT BUT IN NONE OF THOSE
INSTEAD IS HIS HAVE WE SUPPORT
A SINGLE TERM LIMIT. THAT SEEMS
TO TILT THE BALANCE AWAY FROM.
KAPATID EX EXPERTISE SAID AT
THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT LEVEL- FOR
THAT REASON WE'RE SUPPORTING
THIS BILL- I WOULD ALSO SAY
THIS. ARGUMENT THAT THEY'RE
SOMEHOW SOMETHING IN THIS BILL
THAT OVERTURNS WHAT HAPPENED AT
SAMPOERNA DINO I THINK THE
ANALYSIS VERY. ADROITLY POINTS
OUT THAT- BE LOCAL CHARTER FILL
PROCEED TO EVERYTHING THE ONLY
WAY TO CHANGE WHAT HAPPENS
CENTER SAMPOERNA DINO WOULD BE
A SUBSEQUENT VOTE OF THE PEOPLE
AND THAT CHARTER CHANGE OR- A
SUCCESSFUL LEGAL CHALLENGE AND
NONE OF THAT IS INCLUDED IN
THIS BILL. FOR THAT REASON WE
ARE TRANSPORT THANK YOU VERY
MUCH THANK YOU SO MUCH MISTER

YOU HAVE TWO MINUTES WE WELCOME

OF AB. FOUR TO EIGHT MISTER
MURPHY. THANK YOU GOOD
AFTERNOON AND THANKS FOR
PROVIDING THE OPPORTUNITY TO
SPEAK. BUT ONE SIMPLE QUESTION
THAT MUST BE ANSWERED TODAY. IS
AB FOUR TWENTY EIGHT GOOD
GOVERNANCE. THE SIMPLE ANSWER
IS NO. FOR TWO REASONS FIRST IT
MEAN FOR TWENTY YEARS PLACES
RESTRICTIONS ON THE KOREAN FULL
EXERCISE OF THE PEOPLE'S RIGHT
TO INITIATIVE. EARLY VOTERS A
THREE TO SET TERM LIMITS THAT
THEY DEEM APPROPRIATE. APPROVAL
OF EIGHTY FOUR TWENTY EIGHT
WILL LIMIT THAT FREEDOM WITH NO
REASONABLE JUSTIFICATION. BASIC
JUSTIFICATION FOR THIS
RESTRICTION OF RIGHTS THAT IT
TAKES A VERY VERY VERY LONG
TIME TO LEARN AND BECOME
EFFECTIVE IN THE JOB. EVEN A
RESERVE ACCURATE AND WE
CERTAINLY DON'T CONCEDE THAT
POINT. THIS IS STILL
INSUFFICIENT JUSTIFICATION THE
BOYS A RESTRICTION OF A
CITIZEN'S RIGHT TO INITIATIVE.
IN REALITY IS POLITICAL INTENT
OF THE BILLS TO TORPEDO SAMBAR
DINO CARRIES MAJOR K. BUT
SHOPPERS BEEN FIRED BY THE
COUNTY'S POLITICAL ONLY THAT
THEIR OWN CONSTITUENTS. THEY
PROPOSED TO INCLUDE YOUR. WHAT
IT ACTUALLY DOES AND SELF
INTEREST LEGISLATION ON BEHALF
OF POLITICAL CRONIES. FOR
TWENTY EIGHT THE LINE TO
SUPPORT SOME BIRD THE CLERK
SAYS WILL THE SUPERMAJORITY
VOTERS AND A SINGLE COUNT. DO
SO BY IMPOSING UNNECESSARY
RESTRICTIONS HOWEVER I CAN
CITIZENS FIFTY SEVEN OTHER
TOWNS KNOWN THROUGH THE ONLY
APPROPRIATE AND PROPER VOTE ON
THE SCHOOL BOARD TWENTY EIGHT.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR TO REPEAT
THAT WE APPRECIATE YOUR VOICE
IN OPPOSITION WE'RE NOT GOING

COMPANIES REPRESENT HOWARD
JARVIS TAXPAYERS ASSOCIATION
ALL RIGHT SIR YOU HAVE TWO
MINUTES WE WELCOME YOU TO
COMMITTEE THIS WILL BE OUR
THIRD AND FINAL LEAD OPPOSITION
WITNESS WITH EQUAL TIME BETWEEN
OPPOSITION IN SUPPORT. MISTER
KAUFMAN WELCOME SIR THE FLOOR
IS YOURS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH-
THE PROPONENTS OF THIS BILL
CONTINUE TO CLAIM IT HAS
NOTHING TO IT MEASURE K. WILL
HAVE NO EFFECT ON MEASURE K.
THEY EVEN DID SO HERE TODAY THE
COMPANY ANALYSIS. THAT WOULD
MENTION THOUGH HAS IT HAS A
DIFFERENT THEORY HOW I'LL QUOTE
THAT NOW FOR YOU. QUOTE BECAUSE
VOTERS IN ST BERNARD DINO HAVE
ADOPTED TERM LIMITS AS
AUTHORIZED UNDER CURRENT LAW A
FEWER THAN THE NUMBER OF TERMS
THAT WOULD. BE REQUIRED BY AB
FOUR TO EIGHT IT WOULD PROVIDE
AN OPPORTUNITY FOR A CANDIDATE
FOR SUPERVISOR YOU CHALLENGED
AND POTENTIALLY OVERTURN
MEASURE K. IN COURT ON THE
BASIS THAT IT WAS PRINTED BY
STATE LAW DUE TO THE CONFLICT
BETWEEN THE SINGLE TERM LIMIT
MEASURE K. AND THE REQUIREMENT
THAT. TERM LIMITS BEFORE AT
LEAST TWO TERMS ON THE OTHER
HAND IT BECAUSE OF THAT HE WAS
PRIVATIZED INSURANCE MAY BE
LIMITED. LIMIT AB PROPOSED IT
COULD BE ARGUED THAT AB FOUR TO
EIGHT ONLY REVISES THE
REQUIREMENTS FOR FUTURE
PROPOSALS. FOR TERM LIMITS. AS
WRITTEN AB FOUR TO EIGHT LEAVES
TO THE CORE. THE QUESTION OF
WHETHER MEASURE K. WILL
CONTINUE TO OPERATE. THE INTENT
IS CLEAR. THE PROPONENTS OF
THIS BILL BELIEVE MEASURE K. IS
A PROBLEM. THE REAL PROBLEM IS
STRIPPING VOTERS STATE WIDE OF
THE ABILITY TO DESIGNATE THEIR
PREFERRED LENGTH OF TERM. AND
SAID HEY OF THE COUNTY
SUPERVISORS BECAUSE WE DISLIKE
THE OUTCOME OF AN ELECTION. AND
WE ASK YOU TO VOTE NO THANK
YOU. NOTHING THANK YOU SO MUCH

NATURE I JUST WANT TO POINT
OUT. THAT THE BILL SPECIFICALLY
SAYS. WHAT VOTERS CAN PROPOSE.
IN REGARDS TO WHAT THE FUTURE
LOOKS LIKE SO- IT WAS VERY
CLEAR ON THAT- THE SENTIMENT
HAS BEEN VERY CLEAR ON THAT. I
JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT BECAUSE

ABOUT AS WELL BECAUSE- OF FOR
ME- I'VE BEEN DOING PUBLIC
SERVICE FOR. A SIGNIFICANT PART
OF MY LIFE IT'S INTERESTING NOW
THAT I'M IN MY MID FORTIES. AND
I FIRST RAN FOR A CITY COUNCIL
WHEN I WAS TWENTY FOUR. YEARS
OLD AS I KNOW THAT MANY OF YOU
HERE. I'M HAVE RUN FOR LOCAL
OFFICE. WHEN I RAN WHEN I WAS
TWENTY FOUR AND I GOT ELECTED
WHEN I WAS TWENTY FIVE I
THOUGHT I HAD ALL THE ANSWERS.
AT THAT POINT IN TIME. AND I
REMEMBER GETTING ELECTED
THINKING I KNEW WHAT I WAS
DOING IN THAT LITTLE TINY TOWN
THAT I RAN AND WON. IN WITH.
ONLY A TWENTY THOUSAND PEOPLE
LIVING IT AND IN A BUDGET OF.
AROUND TEN MILLION DOLLARS IN.
AND ABOUT FIFTY FIFTY STAFF IT
TOOK ME. AT LEAST THREE YEARS.
TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS THAT
I WAS DOING ON THAT ON THAT
CITY COUNCIL. IN FACT IT
PROBABLY TOOK FIVE YEARS TO
UNDERSTAND THE IMPACT THE
DECISIONS. THAT I WAS MAKING
AND THAT WAS A IN A VERY VERY
VERY SMALL TOWN. THE TWO
COUNTIES THAT I REPRESENT
RIVERSIDE IN SEMINOLE COUNTY-
HAVE NORTH OF TWO MILLION
PEOPLE. THEIR BUDGETS ARE IN
THE BILLIONS OF DOLLARS
THURMOND PLEASE ARE OVER TWENTY
THOUSAND. PEOPLE IT TAKES TIME
AND SITTING IN THOSE SEATS
COULD BEGIN TO UNDERSTAND THE
IMPACT THAT IS BEING MADE. AND
WHEN YOU ONLY HAVE ONE. TERM TO
BE ABLE TO SERVE AND- THAT
MEANS YOU HAVE. ON AVERAGE YEAR
ONE POINT SIX YEARS OF SERVICE
ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS. FOR
TWO AND A HALF YEARS OF SERVICE
ON THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.
THAT'S NOT. ENOUGH TIME FOR
ELECTED REPRESENT TATIAN TO
UNDER. UNDER THAT THIS. THAT
ARE BEING MAY. THE BILL BEFORE
YOU. SIMPLY SAYS THAT THE
VOTERS. I IN COUNTIES CAN
DECIDE- FOR. A THAT THEY WANT
TO HAVE TERM LIMITS BUT IT'S
LIMITED JUST. A TWO TERM SINCE
THE WITHOUT THE RESPECT THE
REQUEST AND I BILL. THANK YOU
SO MUCH AS A MEMBER WE HAVE A

MR CHAIRMAN THE VICE CHAIR
COMMITTEE MEMBERS AND BACK.
EIGHTY THREE SIXTY ONE INTENDED
TO CODIFY PORTIONS OF THE
GOVERNOR'S MARCH TWENTY TWENTY
EXECUTIVE ORDERS RELATED TO THE
BROWN ACT. DUE TO HOW THE
CORONA VIRUS PANDEMIC MADE IT
IMPOSSIBLE TO BE SAFELY
IMMERSED AND CERTAIN PROVISIONS
OF THE BROWN ACT CREATED A
DILEMMA. WE'RE BY COMPLIANCE
WITH ALL OF ITS TERMS WOULD
ENDANGER PUBLIC HEALTH AND
SAFETY. RECOGNIZING THE
QUANDARY. MINISTRATION ISSUE
THAT YOU HAVE ORDERS WOULD MAKE
IT POSSIBLE FOR LOCAL AGENCIES
TO CONTINUE TO BE PUBLICLY AND
DELIVER ESSENTIAL LOCAL
SERVICES. WHILE ALSO REMAINING
IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE BROWN
ACT AT THE SAME TIME ENSURING
THAT THE PUBLIC WAS NOT EXPOSED
TO POTENTIAL SOURCES OF
INFECTION. THE INTERACTIVE
ORDER SERVICE IN RECOGNITION OF
THE FACT THAT CERTAIN BROWN
PROVISIONS INSUFFICIENTLY
ADDRESSED EMERGENCY SITUATIONS
NOT CONTEMPLATED. WHEN. THE
INFORMATION WERE ORIGINALLY
DRAFTED. ANY AMENDMENT CANADIAN
THE RESPONSE WITH TO LOOK
AGENCIES TO AMERICAN SUCH. BY
LOCAL AND- FROM THE BILL'S.
UNTIL WELL STILL NONETHELESS
PROVIDE GOVERNMENTS WITH OF. TO
TRANSITION TO REMOTE PUBLIC
MEETING WHILE ALSO ENSURING
THAT THE PUBLIC. HEARING THAT
PUBLIC ACCESS FROM SCRIPT
MANTRA BY. AMONG OTHER PERMITS.
PROTECTIONS AGAINST
TECHNOLOGICAL DISRUPTION AND
CLARITY SURROUNDING THE TIME
WHICH PUBLIC COMMENTS MAY BE
CLOSED. ASIANS HAVE BEEN
CRAFTED OVER THE LAST YEAR AND
A HALF WITH INPUT FROM LOCAL
AGENCIES BASED ON THEIR
EXPERIENCE AS WELL AS THE INPUT
OF OTHER GOOD GOVERNMENT
STAKEHOLDERS. EIGHTY THREE
SIXTY ONE OF NOT JUST ABOUT THE
CODE NINETEEN PANDEMIC BUT
ABOUT A MEETING THE NEXT
EMERGENCY SHOULD THERE BE
ANOTHER FUTURE EMERGENCY WHICH
MAKES UNSAFE FOR INDIVIDUALS TO
MEET IN PERSON HELLO YOU CAN BE
WILL BE EMPOWERED TO BE
REMOTELY AND ENSURE THAT
CRITICAL PUBLIC SERVICES
CONTINUE. RATHER THAN RESORTING
TO CANCEL. MEETINGS AND ROBIN
SERVICES. YOU ALL YOUR TIME IF
YOU. WITH RESPECT TO THE
MEASURE AND I WILL ON THE LINE
LISTENING PRESS QUESTION. THANK
SOME MARKETS WERE GRATEFUL THAT
AND GENTLEMEN WE'RE NOW GOING
TO GO TO OUR LEAD OPPOSITION
WITNESS- WERE REPUBLICAN AND
DEAN IS ON REPRESENTING AC AC-
YOU CALIFORNIA. KILLING THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR JOINING US YOU
HAVE TWO MINUTES IN THE FLOOR
IS YOURS IN OPPOSITION. THANK
YOU GOODAFTERNOON MR CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS CAITLIN GENE
LEGISLATIVE ADVOCATE WITH ACLU
CALIFORNIA ACTION. WE ARE
GRATEFUL TO THE AUTHOR STAFF
SPONSORS INDEED COMMITTEE FOR
THE RECENT AMENDMENTS BEING
MADE TO THE BILL TODAY. WE HAVE
ADDITIONAL CONCERN BUT NOT BEEN
ADDRESSED AND THEREFORE WE MUST
RESPECTFULLY OPPOSE EIGHTY
THREE SIX ONE. SACRAMENTO WELL
THE GOAL OF ENSURING THAT
PUBLIC AGENCIES CAN CONTINUE TO
PROVIDE CRITICAL SERVICES
DURING TIMES OF CRISIS OR
EMERGENCY AFFORDABLE. LOCAL
GOVERNMENTS MUST CONTINUE TO.
ACTIVELY CONDUCT THE PUBLIC'S
BUSINESS IN AN OPEN AND
TRANSPARENT MANNER. THE LEADING
FUNDAMENTAL AND LONGSTANDING
PUBLIC PROTECTION SHOULD BE%
EXTREMELY RARE AND HIGHLY
CIRCUMSCRIBED. UNFORTUNATELY
EIGHTY THREE TO ONE GOES TO FAR
BY EXEMPTING LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
FROM THE OBLIGATION AND THE
BROWN ACT TO IDENTIFY THE
LOCATION OF EACH TELECONFERENCE
OCCASION AS WELL AS THE
REQUIREMENT THAT TELECONFERENCE
LOCATIONS BE ACCEPTABLE TO THE
PUBLIC. WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE
THE BILL AMENDED TO REQUIRE
MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE BODY
TO APPEAR ON VIDEO DURING
PUBLIC MEETINGS WHENEVER
TELECONFERENCING. AB THREE SIX
ONE NO LONGER REQUIRES ELECTED
OFFICIALS TO PARTICIPATE IN
PUBLIC MEETINGS IN FACT THE
FIGHT THEIR CONTENT THAT. THE
PUBLIC MUST BE ABLE TO VIEW
THEIR ELECTED OFFICIALS. ON
VIDEO. MORE THE PUBLIC HAS THE
RIGHT TO BE A TO PROVIDE
COMMENT TO THEIR ELECT
OFFICIALS AT THE- AS THAT WILL.
IF THEIR LIFE ARE BEING. AS
SUCH IT IS A- THAT BOTH THE
INTERNET SERVICE IN. COPS ARE
PROVIDED FOR THE PUBLIC TO
ADDRESS THE MEMBERS OF THE
LEGISLATIVE BODY. THE CURRENT
PANDEMIC HAS REMINDED US HOW
SPECIAL A FUNCTIONAL GOVERNMENT
IS. ALL OF OUR WELL BEING.
COMMUNITIES ACROSS CALIFORNIA
HAVE RAISED THEIR VOICES TO
FIGHT FOR MORE EQUITABLE BUDGET
RELIEF PACKAGES. TO VOICE
CONCERNS WITH RE OPENING
PLANNED AND ADVOCATE FOR THEIR
LOCAL SMALL BUSINESSES. WE
SHOULD BE EMBRACING THE
TECHNOLOGY THAT HAS MADE IT
EASY FOR PEOPLE TO STAY
CONNECTED DURING THIS TIME. AND
WE SHOULD CONTINUE IT BEYOND
THE PANDEMIC. A WELL INFORMED
AND ENGAGED COMMUNITIES IS
CRITICAL TO BUILDING TRUST AND
REBUILDING BETTER. THE PUBLIC
ACCEPTABILITY REQUIREMENTS OF
THE BROWN ACT ENSURING THAT ALL
CALIFORNIANS CANNOT ATTEND
MEETINGS IN PERSON. AND CAN
DIRECTLY ADDRESSED MEMBERS OF
GOVERNING BODY. PROBABLY
REMOVING THE FIDELITY IS
CONTRARY TO THE BASIC. TENANTS
OF A REPRESENTATIVE DEMOCRACY.

WIENER ANY ADDITIONAL QUESTIONS
COMMENTS LAST CALL
CONVERSATION. PLEASE SENATOR
AZAM GOOD AFTERNOON YES THAT
QUESTION THE AUTHOR PLEASE
PRETTY. GOOD TO THEM- QUICKLY
RESPOND TO THE COMMENTS MADE I
THINK IT WAS BY ACLU. ON THERE
ARE- PROPOSALS I THINK IF I
UNDERSTOOD IT RIGHT TO. APPEAR
ON VIDEO FOR THE OFFICIALS TO
APPEAR ON VIDEO I THINK IT WAS.
AND TO ALLOW PUBLIC COMMENT BY
PHONE OR INTERNET DID I GET
THAT RIGHT. SURE YEAH AND YOU
KNOW I HAVE SOME- I CAN
POSSIBLY. ON THOSE EXACT
CONCERNS I KNOW WE'VE BEEN
ENGAGING WITH THEM SINCE DAY
ONE- YOU KNOW AND I THINK AS-
THE CHAIR. PROPERLY MENTIONED
AT THE TOP OF- THIS DISCUSSION.
IS THE YOU KNOW WHEN YOU LOOK
AT THE BILL THAT WAS PRESENT
EARLIER BY ASSEMBLY MEMBER LEE.
WHO ALSO HAS A IN A POINT ON
THE SPACE TO INCREASE. THE
OPPORTUNITY TO. PARTICIPATE
REMOTELY ARE THOSE THAT'S VERY
IMPORTANT BUT THE EFFORT WE
HAVE HERE IS VERY DIFFERENT- IN
FACT I'M A CO AUTHOR OF
ASSEMBLY MEMBER LEASE BILL
BECAUSE I SUPPORT. THAT AS WELL
SO IT'S BEEN VERY CHALLENGING
TO WORK WITH THE OPPOSITION-
BECAUSE- YOU KNOW THEY- YEAH-
YOU KNOW THEY- HAVEN'T IN MY
OPINION. WANTED TO SERIOUSLY
ENGAGE WITH OUR BILL- THEY'RE
VIEWED IT AS AN OP YEAH BUT A
BILL THAT'S A COMPETITION WITH
MISTER LEE'S BILL WHICH HIGH- I
DISAGREE WITH. OTHER EXHAUSTION
AND WILLING TO WORK WITH THEM
AS WE HAVE FROM DAY ONE AND I
THINK. YOU KNOW THE ONE THING
WE HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND IS A WE
ARE DOING DID YOU KNOW AND OUR
EFFORT IS WHAT THE POINT IS WE
WHAT WE'VE LEARNED OVER LAST
YEAR AND A HALF OF. THE DISK
AND THEN IT. IS THE IMPORTANT
IT IS IMPORTANT FOR US TO BE.
PREPARED FOR THE NEXT
EMERGENCY. I AND SO YOU KNOW
HOPEFULLY WE'LL NEVER HAVE TO
USE SOMETHING LIKE THIS I KNOW
IT HAS A SUNSET OF TWO YEARS.
BUT CERTAINLY AND IN THOSE NEXT
TWO YEARS LOCAL AGENCIES WILL
NOT HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN
EXECUTIVE ORDER TO ALLOW THEM
TO USE THE TECHNOLOGY THAT'S
BEEN USED ALREADY AMID THIS
PANDEMIC- BUT WILL CERTAINLY
ALLOW US. AND ALLOW THESE LOCAL
AGENCIES OCTOBER TO ENSURE THAT
THEY'RE PROVIDING CRITICAL
SERVICES ON IT YO UNCERTAIN
TIMES- AND SO CERTAINLY THIS
IS- AN EXTENSION OF WHAT WE
HAVE HAD UNDER THIS EMERGENCY-
WE JUST WANT TO INSURE THAT
LOCAL AGENCIES HAVE THAT
FLEXIBILITY. AS TO ENSURE THAT
THAT THAT DAY- CAN- MAKE SURE
THAT. THEY CONTINUE THEIR WORK
NOW. SHOULD WE HAVE AN
EMERGENCY THE FUTURE. THANK YOU
SO THEIR DRUG OF. I IN HEARINGS
NO OTHER COMMENTS I THINK THAT
IMPORTANT ABOUT THIS IN WHAT I
REALLY APPRECIATE WITH THE
SUMMARY OF THIS IS THAT I'M
LUCKY THERE ARE GUARDRAILS ON
THIS THIS IS ONLY IN A TIME OF
A GOVERNOR DECLARED DISASTER
AND THIS IS BE HONEST. SOME OF
THE WORST DISASTERS IN THE
STATE HISTORY OUR GOVERNOR
DECLARED DISASTER SO WHAT I CAN
DO SAY IN OUR NECK OF THE WOODS
WE'VE ENTIRE COMMUNITIES THAT
HAVE BEEN EVACUATED- AND-
BUSINESS MUST CONTINUE BUT THE
OTHER IMPORTANT GUARD RELIGION
THIS IS THAT NOTICING
REQUIREMENTS ARE STILL-
INDEBTED IN THIS BILL- A HALF A
THAT THE PUBLIC HAS ACCESS IN
THE MEETING IT REQUIRES THAT
THE GENDER PROVIDE AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR THE PUBLIC TO
DIRECTLY ADDRESS THE
LEGISLATIVE BODY PURSUANT TO
THE BROWN ACT- A TO HAVE TO GET
THEY HAVE TO GIVE NOTICE TO
HAVE THE PUBLIC CAN ACCESS THE
MEDIAN IN PROVIDE PUBLIC
COMMENT. AND THE ONLY REASON
WHY I BRING THIS UP IS BECAUSE
THAT'S BEEN REALLY CRITICAL NOT
FOR THE SENATE MEMBER DIED TO
BE ABLE TO HAVE THIS IN TIMES
OF NEED IN OUR COMMUNITIES. AND
WE HAVE SEEN THIS COME MORE
pUNFORTUNATELY MORE AND MORE
ESPECIALLY IN NORTHERN
CALIFORNIA IS WE'VE HAD IN
TURKEY MEANS EVACUATED OR BURN
THROUGH SO- YOU KNOW THAT THAT
IS BEEN REALLY CRITICAL IN
ENSURING THAT WE HAVE THIS TOOL
BUT ALSO BE VERY SPECIFIC IN
WHEN THE TOOL CAN BE USE AND
IT'S GOING TO SAY THANK YOU FOR
THAT. SEND THE WRONG TURN OVER
YOU FOR YOUR CLOTHES WELL I
APPRECIATE THOSE COMMENTS
MISTER CARE AND YOU KNOW AS I
MENTIONED THIS IS ABOUT- YOU
KNOW BEING PREPARED FOR THE
NEXT EMERGENCY. BUT CERTAINLY
THE REASON WE DO THIS WORK IS
TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THE HIGH
LEVEL OF TRANSPARENCY IN THIS
WORK AS WELL YOU KNOW TO ENSURE
THAT ALL VOICES ARE- YOU KNOW
WILL BE HEARD- AND THAT WE DO
EVERYTHING WE CAN TO MAKE SURE
THAT THAT IS YOU KNOW-
MAINTAINED TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL
SO WITH THAT. YOU KNOW
CERTAINLY- RECOVER SPEC LAST
NIGHT- OPENED. ONE OF THE
CHALLENGES THAT I IN THE GYM SO
MEMBER THANK YOU VERY MUCH I'M
VERY GRATEFUL ALL RIGHT WE HAVE
A MOTION ON THE FLOOR BY CENTER

PLACE YOU ARE TO WORK WITH EACH
AND EVERY TIME FORESHORES THANK

DEVELOPMENT PROPONENT STATEWIDE

CONSTRUCTION OF FEE SIMPLE.
INFILL HOUSING ON SMALL LOTS

ATTRACT NEW RESIDENTS CITIES
NEED TO PROVIDE NEW AFFORDABLE
HOUSING OPTIONS AS CASE THAT IS
MORE OFTEN A SMALL LOT
ORDINANCE SHOWS SMALL HOME NOT
DEVELOPMENTS ARE FEASIBLE UNITS
TO INCREASE HOMEOWNERSHIP
OPPORTUNITIES. WHILE WORKING
WITHIN THE EXISTING LAND USE
DESIGNATIONS WE KNOW WE HAVE A
MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING PROBLEM
WE KNOW THAT WE NEED TO HAVE
MORE FOR CELL UNITS THAT ARE
MORE AFFORDABLE BY DESIGN AND
BY MAKING THEM FEASIBLE AND
MAKING A SMALL SHIFT OWN WAVING
MINIMUM LOT FIVE. AS LONG AS
THEY BOTH TO THE EXISTING THAT
DENSITY THAT THE CITY HAS
DECIDED WE CAN ACTUALLY CREATE

CONSOLIDATION OF SMALL
MUNICIPAL WATER SYSTEMS IN THE
CITIES THESE THREE CITIES EL
MONTE MONTEBELLO AND WILLOW'S
CALIFORNIA. THIS PROVIDING OF
QUALITY AFFORDABLE POTABLE
DRINKING WATER AND CLEAN WATER
FOR OTHER PURPOSES IS REALLY
CHALLENGING FOR VERY SMALL

IS A MEMBER FRIEDMAN SHE'S BEEN
A CHAMPION AND ALL ISSUES OF
HOUSING NOT JUST IN HER NECK OF
THE WOODS BUT THROUGHOUT THE
GOLDEN STATE REALLY ONE OF THE
STATE'S LEADERS ON THIS ISSUE-
AND I ALSO WANT TO SAY HOW
GRATEFUL I AM FOR YOUR
COLLABORATION- IN IN YOUR
SINCERE ENGAGEMENT ON THIS
BILL- AND KNOW WHAT YOU'RE
TRYING TO BE ABLE TO FOCUS IN
ON IN THE CHALLENGES ASSOCIATED
PARKING. AND I JUST WANTED
KNOWLEDGE OF PUBLICLY AT YOUR
PLACE WOULD BE TO WORK WITH I
KNOW THAT THIS IS A TOUGH
SUBJECT AND I APPRECIATE AT
YOUR ENGAGEMENT AS WELL AS A
NUMBER SO I CAN TURN THE FLOOR
OVER TO YOU ON AB FOURTEEN OH
ONE- AND I JUST WANT TO CONFIRM
THAT YOU'RE GONNA BE TAKING IN
THE AND IT MEANS THAT ARE IN
FRONT OF US WELL FIRST OF ALL
I'D LIKE TO HAVE ALL OF MY
BILLS HEARD IN YOUR HEARING.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH SAYS YOU'RE
THE ONLY FILL IN NICELY
GRATEFUL- YES WE ARE GOING TO
BE TAKING THE AMENDMENTS- I
REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR
WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH US TO
ASIA BRING UP YOUR CONCERNS AND
WHAT THE AMENDMENTS WILL DO IS
THEY WILL NARROW THE- SCOPE OF
THIS BILL AND NARROW THE- THE
BUSES- BASICALLY BUS
INFRASTRUCTURE THAT WILL APPLY
TO THAT IS REALLY THE HIGHEST
HIGHER QUALITY BUS STOP AS
OPPOSED TO A BUS LINES AND I
THINK THAT THAT'S A WISE MOVE-
SO AT THIS BILL WHICH IS A
PRIORITY BILL FOR THE LA
CAUCUS. IS A BILL THAT REALLY
LOOKS TO DO A LOT OF THINGS ONE
THING TO MAKE SURE THAT THE BIG
INVESTMENTS THAT WE'VE MADE AS
A STATE AND THAT WE HAVE MADE
MANY TIMES AS A REGION IN MAJOR
TRANSIT I'M REALLY BEARS ALL
THE FRUITS OF VALUE GOES
TRANSIT STOPS CAN TAKE WHICH IS
SUPPORTING A TO A TYPE OF LAND
USE THAT ENCOURAGES PEOPLE TO
WALK MORE TO BIKE MORE AND TO
HAVE ADENSER MORE BUSINESS
RICH ENVIRONMENT IT ALSO
RECOGNIZES THAT IN MANY THAT
ALL CITIES PRETTY MUCH EXCEPT
FOR NOW A FEW CITIES. IN
CALIFORNIA THAT ARE TAKING THE
NEXT STEP HAVE A ONE SIZE FITS
ALL APPROACH WHEN. IT COMES TO
PARKING REGARD TELLING
DEVELOPERS WHAT THEY MUST-
PROVIDE. REGARDLESS OF. THE IS-
OF THOSE. EVEN IF THEY'RE RIGHT
NEXT TO A MAJOR TRANSIT STOP.
NOW DEVELOPERS KNOW VERY WELL.
WHAT THEIR TENANTS AND WHAT
THEIR CLIENTS REQUIRE FOR
PARKING AND YET CITIES.
HANDCUFF THEM. IN ORDER TO DO
THAT. SO IN CALIFORNIA.
GENERALLY APARTMENTS MUST
INCLUDE ONE OR TWO PARKING
SPACES PER UNIT. AND COMMERCIAL
PROPERTIES PROVIDING ONE SPACE
FOR EVERYONE TO TWO HUNDRED
SQUARE FEET. SO WHAT IS THE
RESULT OF THIS IN CALIFORNIA.
IT'S LED TO AN OVER ABOVE
SUPPLY OF PARKING. IN LOS
ANGELES COUNTY WE HAVE EIGHTEEN
POINT SIX MILLION PARKING
SPACES WHICH COMES TO ABOUT TWO
FOR EVERY RESIDENT. WE HAD THAT
IS LED TO AN ASTONISHING TWO
HUNDRED MILES OF LAND DEVOTED
TO PARKING CARS IN LOS ANGELES.
S. N. A STUDY BY THE CITY OF
SAN DIEGO OF TWENTY ONE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING DEVELOPMENTS
FROM THE 39% OF THE PARKING
WHICH IS REQUIRED BY THE
CITY'S. FOR OVER FOUR HUNDRED
SPACES WERE UNUSED AT A COST OF
BETWEEN TWELVE AND THIRTY
MILLION DOLLARS. ALSO WE KNOW
THAT WE ARE MOVING TOWARDS AN
AUTONOMOUS VEHICLE FUTURE AT
WHAT POINT WE MIGHT REALLY
REGRET HAVING SPENT SO MUCH
MONEY. SO MANY RESOURCES AND SO
MUCH LAND CREATING PARKING. UGH
THE POLICY THAT WE HAVE NOW
ENCOURAGES CAR DEPENDENCE AND
DISCOURAGES MASS TRANSIT USE
INCREASING VEHICLE MILES
TRAVELED. IT ALSO WORSENS
CALIFORNIA SEVERE HOUSING
SHORTAGE BY RAISING THE COST OF
HOUSING PRODUCTION ON AVERAGE A
GARAGE COSTS TWENTY FOUR
THOUSAND TO THIRTY FOUR
THOUSAND DOLLARS PER SPACE TO
BUILD. A COST THAT IS OFTEN
PASSED ON TO HOUSEHOLDS
REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THEY OWN
A CAR. RIGHT NOW. I KNOW
THERE'S BEEN A CONCERN ABOUT
WHAT THIS WILL DO TO DENSITY
BONUS AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THE
CONCERN IS THAT BECAUSE
DEVELOPERS TAKE THAT PARKING
REDUCTIONS AS PART OF DENSITY
BONUS THAT MAYBE IF WE DO
COUPLE THAT AND DON'T FORCE
THEM TO BILL PARKING WE CAN
SOMEHOW LEVERAGE THAT BACK TO
THEM. HOWEVER THE ONLY REASON
THE PARKING REDUCTIONS-
INCLUDED A DENSITY BONUS FOR
AFFORDABLE HOUSING IT'S JUST
SERVICE THE ADDITIONAL DENSITY
IT'S A THAT DENSITY AND THE
ABILITY TO BUILD AFTER UNITS
THAT ADDS VALUE TO THE
BUILDING. NOT THAT ONE TIME
COST REDUCTION OF THE PARKING
HOW DO WE KNOW THIS FOR A FACT
WE KNOW IT BECAUSE SAN DIEGO
ELIMINATED MINIMUM PARKING
REQUIREMENTS IN THEIR TRANSIT
PRIORITY AREAS IN TWO THOUSAND
NINETEEN. AND TWO THOUSAND
TWENTY. AFTER THIS WAS ADOPTED
THE CITY SAW MORE THAN A FOUR
TIMES INCREASE IN AFFORDABLE
HOUSING UNITS PROVIDE. SO WE
KNOW THAT REDUCING THE AMOUNT
OF PARKING THAT'S NEEDED THAT
ELIMINATING THAT MANDATE DOES
NOT NEGATIVELY AFFECT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING UNDER
DENSITY BONUS. AND WE HAVE
HEARD TESTIMONY BY AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PRODUCERS AT THIS WELL
GIVEN THE KIND OF CERTAINTY
THEY NEED TO BUILD WILL HELP
THEM WITH FINANCING WILL IT
WILL. ALLOW US TO INCREASE THE
AMOUNT OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE
ARE USING IN ADDITION
DEVELOPERS WHO ARE BUILDING FOR
THE MISSING MIDDLE HOUSING THAT
IS NOT SUBSIDIZED THEY'RE NOT
GETTING TAX CREDITS FOR. FOR
ABLE TO BUILD UNITS AND RENT
THEM AT A LOWER COST IF THEY
CAN PROVIDE LESS PARKING OR THE
ABILITY TO BE MORE FLEXIBLE
WITH PARKING LIKE PROVIDING
TANDEM PARKING. AND WE'VE HEARD
THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN FROM
DEVELOPERS PERSONALLY I'VE
HEARD FROM SMALL DEVELOPERS
PEOPLE THAT ON TWO OR THREE
UNITS COULD SQUEEZE IN ANOTHER
UNIT BUT AREN'T ALLOWED TO BUY
THEIR CIT BECAUSE OF PARKING.
REQUIREMENTS AND THEY KNOW
THEIR TENANTS DON'T NEED. THE
BILL CAN. TO REQUIRE PARKING
FOR THE DISABLED AND FOR A
LUXURY CARS. IT IS NOT. PART OF
BUILDING OWNERS FROM PROVIDING
PARKING. IN FACT IN PLACES THAT
HAVE DONE THIS LIKE BUFFALO NEW
YORK WE STARTED I BELIEVE FIVE
YEARS AGO. ONE OF THE BELPER
STILL INCLUDE PARKING INSTALL.
YOU KNOW A QUITE A BIT OF
PARKING BUT IT GIVES US A BILL
APPROVED THE FLEXIBILITY TO
RIGHT SIZE THE PARKING FOR
THEIR NEEDS AND THE NEEDS OF
THEIR TENANTS. AB FORTINO ONE

THANK YOU CHAIR- WELL MY NAME
IS MIA- AND I AM TO BE. A
PORTABLE HOUSING. AND A BOARD
MEMBER WITH THE COUNCIL INFILL
BUILDERS AND ONE OF THE BILL'S
PROUD CO SPONSOR. AND AS YOU
HEARD PARKING REQUIREMENTS
PERHAPS THE SINGLE MOST
IMPORTANT DRIVER OF HOUSING
COSTS AND GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS CALIFORNIA TODAY. BY
ELIMINATING MINIMUM PARKING
REQUIREMENTS IN TRANSIT RICH
AREAS AND ALLOWING DEVELOPERS
FLEXIBILITY TO RIGHT BY THE
PARKING. WE BELIEVE EIGHTY
FOURTEEN NO ONE WILL.
CONTRACTED TWO THOUSAND. AND
SLASH GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS.
TENS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS
OFF THE COST OF NEW HOUSING-
WHAT THE POTENTIAL FOR
CALIFORNIANS VACANT BUILDINGS
AND UNDER UTILIZED LAND BY. OUR
RESEARCH SHOWS THAT EIGHTY FOUR
G. MAIL ON WILL ALSO HELP. MAKE
CALIFORNIA DENSITY BONUS LAW
INCLUDING HOUSING PROGRAMS OF
WORK EVEN MORE PRODUCTIVELY. WE
WANT TO ASSURE YOU THAT
DEVELOPERS WILL CONTINUE TO
BUILD PARKING. RIGHT BY THE
PARKING LOT IN SOME OF OUR
RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT IN LA'S.
TRANSIT ORIENTED COMMUNITY
PROJECT HAS. BEEN APPROVED-
OVER EIGHTY OF ALL OF THE
DEVELOPERS OF ABSOLUTELY-
UTILIZED ALL OF THEIR GAMES
CITY. BUT THEY ALSO PROVIDED
MORE PARTY THAT JUST AND THEN
I'M ON REQUIRED SO BY BALANCING
BY ALLOWING DEVELOPERS TO
BALANCE THE COULD PRODUCE THE
HOUSING. IN THE AREAS THAT WE
KNOW THAT WE NEED TO HAVE AN
EXISTING COMMUNITIES AB FORTINO
ONE OF THE SIMPLEST MOST DIRECT
ACTION THE STATE CAN TAKE TODAY
TO LOWER THE COST OF NEW
TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT
FOR SMALL BUSINESSES AND TURN
BACK THE CLOCK. ACCORDING TO
CHANGE FOR THESE REASONS WE
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THE
COMMITTEE I VOTE AND WE REALLY
THANK YOU ALSO FOR HER
INCREDIBLE LEADERSHIP. THANK
YOU THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR
PRESENTATION TODAY MISCARRYING
LADIES IN GERMAN LAZAR TO LEAD
SUPPORT WITNESSES WE HAVE ONE
LEAD OPPOSITION WITNESS ON FILE
HERE TODAY WE'RE GOING TO
WELCOME SYNDICATE STUDIO TO THE
COMMITTEE. MISCUE STILL THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING WITH US
REPRESENTING THE WESTERN CENTER
ON LAW AND POVERTY THIS
CONCEALED THE FLOOR IS YOURS.
YOUR TWO MINUTES PLEASE PROCEED
WELCOME. THANK YOU SHE COULD.
TURN THEM IN GOT THE- WITH
WEAPONS ARE AMONG. WE'RE
RESPECTFULLY OF UNLESS. TO
EIGHTY FOURTEEN THERE ONE.
WESTERN CENTER WHOLEHEARTEDLY
AGREED TO SUPPORT THE AUTHORS
INTENDED GALDERMA EXCESSIVE
PARKING REQUIREMENTS AND
ENCOURAGE HEALTHIER COMMUNITIES
LESS RELIANT ON GREENHOUSE GAS
THE CARD. UNFORTUNATELY AB
FORTINO ONE CURRENTLY DOES NOT
STRIKE THE RIGHT BALANCE
BETWEEN POLICY OBJECTIVES AND
THE DEEPLY CRITICAL GOAL OF
INCREASING AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
REALLY INTENSELY OFFER YOUR OWN
AND YOUR TRANSIT 4% AFFORDABLE
PROJECT. PROVIDING A
COMPETITIVE EDGE THE PROJECT IN
MANY MARKETS A COMPETITIVE EDGE
THAT THIS BILL WOULD ELIMINATE
IN ITS CURRENT FORM. REMOVING
THAT ADVANTAGE ENCOURAGES
MARKET RATE DEVELOPMENT NEAR
TRANSIT THAT IS LESS THAN AND
CONTAINS NO AFFORDABLE UNITS.
WE BELIEVE BECAUSE THIS IS A
POLICY OF CAPTURING VALUE THAT
IS BEING CREATED BY THE REMOVAL
OF THE PARKING TO PRODUCE
HOUSING. FOR BOTH THE MALE OF
THE HOUSEHOLD. REQUEST IS NOT
WHETHER WE ELIMINATE YOUR- WE
BELIEVE WE SHOULD. THE QUESTION
OF WHETHER THE ELIMINATION OF
PARKING REQUIREMENT SHOULD BE
DONE IN COORDINATION WITH MIXED
INCOME AND AFFORDABLE HOUSING
UNDER THE DENSITY BONUS
REMARKS. OR DEALING TRONG THAT
THE BONUS. AS AB FORTY NO ONE
IN THE CURRENT FORM. MORE
SIMPLY AND THE QUESTION OF
WHETHER THE ELIMINATION OF
PARKING REQUIREMENTS. DAN
INCLUSIONARY DEVELOPMENT OR
LEFT AND INCLUSIONARY
DEVELOPMENT. MANY CITIES ARE
ALREADY LEVERAGING THAT THE
BONUS BOND LOWERING PARKING
MINIMUM. CITY OF LA HAS DONE
THAT LOOK AT THE CAPITOL
TRANSIT ORIENTED COMMUNITIES
PROGRAM. AND AS AUTHOR MENTOR
AND MENTIONED BENDIGO HAS LOWER
PARKING MINIMUM WE JUST AND
TRAFFIC. BUT HAVE ALSO MADE
CHANGES RECENTLY TO INCREASE A.
B. L. U. COURAGE AMONG
DEVELOPERS. PROJECT MAKING USE
OF REGARD REDUCED PARKING
REQUIREMENTS AND THAT THE
PRODUCT TOGETHER. IS IDEAL THE
OUTCOME. IN TO GET YOU THE-
GOAL WITHOUT HIM BRING AMERICA
BY WHICH DEVELOPER INCREASE. WE
WOULD THE FROM THE BILL THAT A
LIVE PARK MINIMUMS RENDON THAT.
YOUR OR THE DEVELOPER UTILITY.
DENSITY BONUS LAW OR INCLUDES
TEN ARE YOU GONNA. ORIGINALLY
THAT COMMITTEE AMENDMENT NOT
ADDRESS THE CONCERNS AND GIVEN
OUR HOUSING CRISIS. WE CANNOT
AFFORD TO FORGO AN OPPORTUNITY
TO BRING YOU PROJECT INTO AN
AFFORDABLE HOUSING FRAMEWORK
AND WE CAN'T AFFORD TO LEAVE
ANY AFFORDABILITY ON THE
PEOPLE. WE SHOULD USE THE
POLICY THAT. POLICY OPTION THAT
REDUCES PARKING AND INCREASES
AFFORDABILITY TOGETHER. SO WE
REALLY THINK THAT WHENEVER
FRIEDMAN AND HER STAFF AS WELL
THE COMMITTEE FOR HEARING OUR
CONCERNS. WE LOOK FORWARD TO
FURTHER DISCUSSION TO
ACCOMPLISH A POLICY THAT WORKS
FOR A CLIMATE TRANSPORTATION
HOUSING AND EQUITY GOALS REALLY
APPRECIATE ALL OF YOUR TIME

THANK YOU MISTER CHAIRMAN I
WANT TO PERSONALLY THANK THAT
THE CHAIR. OF FOR WORKING WITH
THE AUTHOR- ON ON THIS BILL AND
FOR COMING TO GETTING GETTING
TO YES AND- COMING UP WITH-
WITH AMENDMENTS TO COMMUTE TO
GO FOR SOME VERY APPRECIATIVE
THE CHAIR. FIVE TAKING TIME AND
ENERGY TO DO THAT ONE THING THE
AUTHOR. FOR MOVING US FORWARD
SAYS IN THE FIRST TIME THIS
BILLS COMPONENTS CENTER SKINNER
WHEN SHE WAS. ASSEMBLY MEMBER
SKINNER- INTRODUCE BROUGHT
POINT. AND IT'S A VERY-
IMPORTANT BILL AND I THINK IT'S
DRIVE AN ECHO HERE. OF IT. OKAY
IS IT BETTER NOW OKAY ON THIS
IS IT'S HARD TO OVERSTATE. THE
IMPORTANCE OF THIS BILL IN THIS
GENERAL ISSUE I KNOW THERE'S A
LOT OF TO BE A PARTICULAR
RESPECTFUL OF THE WESTERN
CENTER IS. POSITION I
UNDERSTAND I'M A HUGE SUPPORTER
OF THE DENSITY BONUS- AND I AND
I UNDERSTAND THAT I RESPECT OF
YOU BUT I ALSO KNOW THAT
MINIMUM PARKING REQUIREMENTS
HAVE BEEN ONE OF THE ABSOLUTE
PILLARS OF CALIFORNIA'S HOUSING
CRISIS. THESE PARKING
REQUIREMENTS WHICH ARE
SOMETIMES OBSCENE. I MEAN IN
SOME PLACES SAN FRANCISCO
ELIMINATED. A PARKING
REQUIREMENTS A FEW YEARS AGO
NOT AS PART OF DENSITY BONUS
SIMPLY GOT RID OF THEM WHAT THE
WHAT THE AUTHORS PLAN TO DO IN
PROGRESS OF SAN FRANCISCO WHERE
WE HAVE A HIGH INCLUSIONARY
WITH TRULY BELIEVE IN
AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE GOT RID
OF IT BECAUSE IT WAS THE RIGHT
THING TO DO A POLICY
PERSPECTIVE. BUT AT LEAST IN
SAN FRANCISCO BEFORE THAT WE
HAD HAD A LOT OF POINT TWO FIVE
IN POINT FIVE TRUCK CALIFORNIA
THE NUMBER OF LIKE. ONE TO ONE
ONE PARKING SPOT PER UNIT OR
TWO TO ONE. IT'S OUTRAGEOUS.
AND IT ABSOLUTELY EXPLODES THE
COST OF BUILDING ANY KIND OF
HOUSING. CAN NINE FIFTY SEVENTY
FIVE THOUSAND A HUNDRED
THOUSAND DOLLARS PER UNIT. TO
THE COST OF BUILDING THAT
HOUSING. IT ALSO MEANS THAT.
YOU KNOW BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT
WHEN YOU BUILD. YOUR YOU HAVE
AN ENVELOPE THAT YOU BUILT ON
WITH SETBACKS AND HEIGHTS AND-
IT'S ALL YOU CAN BUILD INTO
INFINITY. AND YET YOU AND- WHEN
YOU HAVE TO DEVOTE LIKE HALF OF
THE SPACE- THIRD OF THE SPACE.
THE CARS. THAT HAVE FURTHER TO
THE SPACE IT'S NOT GOING TO
PEOPLE. IT MEANS YOU ARE
BUILDING WAS HOUSING.
DELIVERING FEWER UNITS. AND THE
UNITS YOU ARE DELIVERING. ARE
MUCH MORE EXPENSIVE IT IS
INCREDIBLY PERNICIOUS AND EVAN
SO MANY STUDIES. AND BOOKS
WRITTEN ON THIS. GUY IT'S LIKE
WE CARE MORE ABOUT CARS THAN WE
CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. FOR LIVING
IN CARS AND DUMPSTERS AND TEN
PERSONS TEN PEOPLE TO OUR UNIT.
AND WE'RE JUST OBSESSING ABOUT
DEDICATING MORE AND MORE SACE
THAT SHOULD BE HOUSING. AND
DEDICATING AT. THE HOUSE CARS
INSTEAD OF PEOPLE. AND IT'S
JUST IT'S JUST TOO MUCH AND
IT'S TIME TO AND THEN WE ALSO
IT'S IMPORTANT I MEAN SOME OF
THEM PEOPLE HEAR ABOUT. WORKING
MINIMUM TO GETTING RID OF IT
THEY THINK OH MEANS NO PARKING
IT DOESN'T MEAN THAT. IT MEANS
THAT WENT OUT DEVELOPMENT IS
BEING FORMULATED YOU CAN TAKE
INTO ACCOUNT WHAT IS THE NEEDED
PARKING. THERE IF PARKING IS
GOING TO BE REALLY IMPORTANT TO
ATTRACT PEOPLE LIVE THERE.
THERE'S GOING TO BE PARKING IF
IT'S NOT THEN THEY'LL BE LESS
PARKING OR NO PARKING AND SO
HAVING THAT FLEXIBILITY- IS
REALLY REALLY IMPORTANT SO AS A
MATTER OF. I JUST ABOUT CLIMATE
AND HOUSING AFFORDABILITY
BECAUSE I AGREE WITH THE
WESTERN CENTER WE WANT TO. HAVE
A STRONG DENSITY BONUS BUT IF
WE ARE REDUCING THE SUPPLY OF
HOUSING SO DRAMATICALLY THAT
MAKES HOUSING. MORE AFFORDABLE-
THE DENSITY BONUS HAS A LOT OF
SUPPORT FOR EAGLE. OTHER THAN
PARKING YOU DO YOU GET MORE HOW
YOU CAN AFFECTS THAT BACKS YOU
CAN IN FACT THAT THEY ARE THERE
SO MANY OF- ADVANTAGES THE
DENSITY BONUS IT'S NOT JUST
ABOUT PARKING. PARKING STANDS
ON ITS OWN WE NEED TO GET RID
OF THESE MINIMUMS. AND SOME
HAPPY TO MOVE THIS BILL. THANK
YOU SO MUCH. SENATOR AND DO
APPRECIATE YOUR LEADERSHIP ON-
AS HOUSING SHARES WELL IN VERY
GRATEFUL TO BE WORKING WITH YOU
SO LET'S GO TO CENTER DRAWS OF
PLEASE. YES- I- I APPRECIATE
VERY MUCH THE AUTHOR HOT THERE
AND I TALK ABOUT. THESE ISSUES
ALL THE TIME AND FEEL- VERY
FORTUNATE THAT. FEES THEY'RE
THINKING ABOUT EVERYTHING THE
WAY THAT THEY CAN DO AND THEN
THE GREAT. BUT I DO SEE A ARM
MORE OF AN IMPACT IN THE AND
IT'S PROBABLY BECAUSE WE START
OUT THINKING THAT WAY I KNOW
AND THE ONLY DELEGATION YOU
KNOW THIS ISSUE YOU BROUGHT IT
UP AND I WAS SUPPORT OF- I AND-
THINK THAT THE- UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES FOR COMMUNITIES
LIKE THE ONE THAT. ALL WE'RE
TRYING TO BUILD MORE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING IS THERE IT'S A REALITY
AND I THINK THAT WE HAVE TO
WORK HARDER AT NOT HAVING A
OVER BALANCE ON THE SIDE OF.
THE WHICH WE ALL BELIEVE IN
PREACHING TO THE CHOIR HERE YOU
KNOW THAT ENVIRONMENTAL ASPECTS
OF SMOG AND THE POLLUTION- I
GET THAT. I KNOW THAT BECAUSE
IN MY DISTRICT WE HAVE SOME OF
THE WORST AND MOST CONTAMINATED
AREAS. YOU KNOW SOIL WATER YOU
NAME IT- SO I AM ABSOLUTELY
THERE ON THAT ISSUE. BUT THERE
IS- IMPACT AND WE HAVE TO WE
HAVE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IMPACT
THAT IT'S GOING TO HAVE ON.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AND I KNOW
EVERY TIME I BRING THIS UP I
WAS IN R. R. SENATE WORKING
GROUP ON HOUSING WE HAVE GOT TO
DO IT AT THE SAME TIME THAT
WE'RE TALKING ABOUT- YOU KNOW
THE- THE PROPOSALS. TO ADDRESS
CLEANER AIR I SEE THE LIST OF
ALL THE ENVIRONMENTAL GROUPS-
BUT ON THE OPPOSITION THERE ARE
SOME VERY LEGITIMATE DOWN TO
EARTH ORGANIZATIONS. THAT WORK
ON THESE ISSUES EVERY DAY AS OF
YOU KNOW THEY ALSO HAVE REYES
THIS UNITED. IT'S BEEN A ISSUE
OF HOUSE FOR A HOMELESSNESS FOR
MANY YEARS C. B. E. R. YOU NAME
IT SO THE ARE A- THAT REALLY
ARE ON THE GROUND THEY
UNDERSTAND THAT WHAT THE IMPACT
IS GOING TO BE. AND I REALLY
THINK THAT WE JUST HAVE TO PAY
SOME MORE ATTENTION ALL OF US
ON WHAT THE UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES COULD BE SO I
REALLY- YOU KNOW I KNOW YOU
MENTIONED- YOU KNOW THERE'S NO
PARKING BUT THERE'S PARKING FOR
ELECTRIC CARS IN ALL. OF LOW
INCOME PEOPLE ARE NOT LIKELY
THE ONES TO BE DRIVING THE
ELECTRIC CARS BUT THAT'S
PROVIDED FOR HERE- YOU KNOW
IT'S NOT IT'S NOT JUST- HOUSE-
WORKING FOR HOUSING BUT THERE'S
PARKING FOR THE COMMERCIAL
AREAS OR NO PARKING FOR THE
COMMERCIALS AREAS. SO I REALLY
HOPE THAT YOU CONTINUE VERY
STRONGLY TO WORK ON TO ADDRESS
THESE ISSUES ARE I'M NOT GOING
TO IGNORE THAT THE ISSUES AS
THEY'VE BEEN BROUGHT UP TO ME.
AND AS I'M LEARNING BETTER WHAT
POTENTIAL UNINTENDED
CONSEQUENCES ARE AND I REALLY
ASK THE AUTHOR AUG TO BE TO
TAKE ANOTHER STEP FURTHER. AS
UNCOMFORTABLE AS THAT MIGHT BE
I KNOW YOU'RE VERY COMMITTED TO
THIS I KNOW YOU PUT YOUR HEART
AND SOUL INTO IT ALL BUT WE
CAN'T IGNORE- THE CONCERNS THAT
ARE RAISED. BY YOU KNOW PEOPLE
WHO ARE- INVOLVED WITH LW
INCOME COMMUNITIES- EVERY
SINGLE DAY THEY SEE THE IMPACT
AND SO I REALLY URGE YOU I'M
GONNA SUPPORT TODAY BUT I
REALLY. I JUST ASK THE AUTHOR
DEGAN. EVEN TO A LOT OF A
GREATER LEVEL OF DISCOMFORT WE
HAVE GOT TO WE CAN'T LET THE
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE AND
ECONOMIC JUSTICE THE AFFORDABLE
HOUSING ISSUES BE PITTED
AGAINST EACH OTHER AND THAT
HAPPENS TO A LARGE AND I. I
DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT HAPPEN
HERE SO. FOR MY COMMENT. THANK
YOU SO MUCH SANDRA'S I KNOW

THE INTRO MISTER CARE MEMBERS
THAT WANT TO START BY THANKING
YOU AND YOUR STAFF FOR WORKING

PROPOSED AMENDMENTS THAT NARROW
THE- NUISANCE AUTHORITY TO
ALLOW DISTRICTS TO ONLY DECLARE
ENCROACHMENTS. AS A NUISANCE-
REMOVE THE SPECIAL ASSESSMENT
AUTHORITY FROM THE BILL AND
THREE MAKE OTHER TECHNICAL AND
CLARIFYING CHANGES. NINE FIVE
NINE WOULD SIMPLY ALLOW
INDEPENDENT PARKED RESEARCH TO
BE ABLE TO EFFICIENTLY AND
EFFECTIVELY ADDRESS A
MULTITUDE. OF PUBLIC NUISANCES
THAT THEY REGULARLY CONFRONT.
EXAMPLES OF NUISANCES ON PARK
DISTRICT LANDS INCLUDE ILLEGAL
WATER DIVERSION EXTENSION OF
YARDS IN THE PARK HABITAT
ILLEGAL DUMPING AND GRADING. ON
AUTHORIZED LANDSCAPING A LEGAL
STREAMBED ALTERATION ALL OF
WHICH IMPACT SENSITIVE HABITAT
WILDFIRE PROTECTION ZONES AND
OTHER PARK SPECIFIC USES. HER
DISTRICTS NEED TO BE ABLE TO
ADDRESS ILLEGAL ENCROACHMENTS
IN THE SAME COMPREHENSIVE WAY
THAT CITIES. COUNTIES AND OTHER
SPECIAL DISTRICTS CAN. GIVEN
THE PARK DISTRICTS ARE BEST
SUITED TO. ADDRESS LAND
STEWARDSHIP AND MANAGEMENT
ISSUES ON ITS OWN LANDS.
PROVIDING PARK DISTRICTS WOULD
BE APPROPRIATE NUISANCE
ABATEMENT TOOLS WILL BE THE
MOST EFFICIENT EFFECTIVE
ALLOCATION OF PUBLIC RESOURCES.
THIS MEASURE IS NO OPPOSITION
HAS ENJOYED UNANIMOUS
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT. AND I ASK
FOR AN AYE VOTE WE HAVE A
COUPLE OF SUPPORT WEST

DIFFERENT PARK DISTRICTS WILL.
BE ON THE PHONE I BELIEVE.

SERVES AS AN A GREEN BELT FOR A
DENSELY POPULATED URBAN AREA
AND ALTHOUGH WE PROACTIVELY
COORDINATE AND COMMUNICATE WITH
OUR NEIGHBORS. PROBLEMS
OCCASIONALLY ARISE- ASSEMBLY
MEMBER MULLIN ALREADY DESCRIBED
SOME REAL LIFE EXAMPLES OF
ISSUES THAT WE COULD ADDRESS
USING THE MUSIC ABATEMENT
PROCESS. THAT WOULD- YOU WOULD
HELP US DELIVER OUR MISSION TO
PROTECT NATURAL WATERCOURSES
PRESERVE NATURAL LANDSCAPES
REDUCE WILDFIRE RISK AND
PROTECT PUBLIC ACCESS TO OUR
PRISONERS WE APPRECIATE YOUR
WILLINGNESS TO HEAR THIS BILL
IT WOULD AFFORD OUR AGENTS BE
MORE A TANAMI AND FLEXIBILITY
IN OUR ENFORCEMENT PROGRAM
THANK YOU OR YOUR TIME I'M
GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS.
THAT YOU MAY HAVE. MODERATOR WE
HAVE AN ADDITIONAL WHAT NASH
PRINCIPAL WITNESS RACHEL CENTER.
AND YOUR LINE IS OPEN. GOOD
AFTERNOON COMMITTEE MMBERS AND
THANK YOU FOR THIS OPPORTUNITY
TO SPEAK TODAY THIS IS RACHEL
SATYR- ASSISTANT DISTRICT
COUNCIL FOR THE EAST BAY
REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT. THE
EAST BAY REGIONAL PARK DISTRICT
IS A MULTI COUNTY REGIONAL PARK
AND OPEN SPACE DISTRICT CREATED
UNDER THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC
RESOURCES CODE OF COURSE
FUNCTION OF THE PARK DISTRICT
LIKE ANY PART DISTRICT IS THE
STEWARDSHIP OF THE NATURAL
RESOURCES WITHIN OUR
BOUNDARIES. THIS RESPONSIBILITY
HAS BECOME INCREASINGLY
CRITICAL GIVEN THE PRESSING
NEED TO ADDRESS A CHANGING
CLIMATE. THE PARK DISTRICT FOR
DISTRICTS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE
PLANNING OPERATION AND
MAINTENANCE OF A SYSTEM OF PARK
LANDS HOWEVER BECAUSE OUR PARK
DISTRICTS DO NOT HAVE LAND USE
POWER LIKE CITIES AND COUNTIES
THE LEGAL TOOLS THAT ARE
AVAILABLE TO PREVENT
UNAUTHORIZED USES OF PARK LANDS
ARE STRICTLY LIMITED TO THOSE
GRANTED BY STATUTE. AN EXAMPLE
WHERE PARK DISTRICT'S STATUTORY
GRANT ABOUT FORTY IS LIMITED
COMPARED TO CITY AND COUNTY IS
THE ABATEMENT OF NUISANCES. IT
IS FOR THIS REASON I'M SPEAKING
IN SUPPORT OF ASSEMBLY MEMBER
MULLIN SPELL A. B. NINE FIVE
NINE IF THIS BILL BECOMES LAW
IT WOULD PROVIDE PARK DISTRICT
WITH A VALUABLE TOOL. TO
EFFICIENTLY AND EFFECTIVELY
MANAGE THEIR PARK LANDS. AS
ASSEMBLY MEMBER MULLIN- ALREADY
IDENTIFIED THERE ARE A NUMBER
OF- ILLEGAL ENCROACHMENTS THAT
WE TYPICALLY EXPERIENCE IN ONE
OF THESE EXAMPLES- THE PARK
DISTRICT WAS FORCED TO TURN TO
CIVIL COURT PROCEEDINGS TO
ADDRESS THE ENCROACHMENT. WHICH
WAS COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING.
AND EVEN AFTER WE GOT A
JUDGMENT AGAINST THIS
ENCROACHING PROPERTY OWNER HE
HAS CONTINUED TO ENCROACH ON
PARK DISTRICT PROPERTY. DUE TO
OUR LIMITED ENFORCEMENT TOOLS.
BY COMPARISON HAVING THE
ABILITY TO ADMINISTRATIVELY
ABATE THESE TYPES OF
ENCROACHMENTS WOULD BE COST
EFFECTIVE. AND HELP THE PARK
DISTRICT EFFICIENTLY CARRY OUT
ITS LAND STEWARDSHIP MISSION.
NOTE THAT THIS ABATEMENT POWER
WOULD BE USED AS A LAST RESORT
WITH THE INTENT TO HAVE IT
FUNCTION AS A DETERRENT TO
INDIVIDUALS WHO ARE CONDUCTING
ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES ON PARK
DISTRICT PROPERTY. WE
APPRECIATE YOUR ATTENTION THANK
YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TIME THIS
AFTERNOON. THANK YOU SO MUCH
YOUR TESTIMONY ADVOCACY WERE

THAT- TURNS FROM A VOLUNTARY
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESSES TO A-
MANDATORY ADMINISTRATIVE
EXHAUSTION. PROCESS BEFORE

FOR THE HARD WORK AND THE
FOUGHT FOR ASSISTANCE AND-
WE'RE GONNA BE ACCEPTING THESE
COMMITMENTS TODAY BUT WE REALLY

ATTENTION THAT YOU'VE GIVEN US
TO WORKING THROUGH THE BILL-
REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR
LEADERSHIP. AND YOUR
PROFESSIONALISM YOUR REALLY TO
MAKE YOURSELF AVAILABLE TO HAVE
THOSE CAR. REALLY GREATLY A-
AND FORWARD CONTINUING THE
CONVERSATION WITH BOTH OF YOU
AND ANTON AUS IN A JUST A
WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE THAT THEY
BRING TO THE SO THANK YU VERY
VERY MUCH FOR. FOR YOUR SINCERE
ENGAGEMENT HERE I'M PLEASED
TODAY TO BE ABLE TO PRESENT
THIS BILL WHICH WOULD CREATE A
SPECIALIZED APPEAL PANEL. TO
ADDRESS SITUATIONS WHERE LOCAL
OFFICIALS SEEK TO PREVENT THE
DEVELOPMENT OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING. IN VIOLATION OF STATE
LAW THIS IS A MODEST EFFORT TO
STRENGTHEN THE PURPOSE AND
INTENT OF THE HOUSING
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT. IN THIS- ED
DEALS WITH THAT EFFORTS TO
BLOCK THE DEVELOPMENT OF
AFFORDABLE HOUSING THAT
OTHERWISE COMPLIES WITH THE
APPLICABLE GENERAL PLAN. ZONING
AND SUBDIVISION STANDARDS. AND
REQUIRES LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO
MAKE SPECIFIC FINDINGS IN THE
EVENT THAT THEY DO SO.
PERSONALLY DESPITE ARE WELL
DOCUMENTED AFFORDABLE HOUSING
CRISIS SOME LOCAL GOVERNMENTS
HAVE DEFIED THE ACT IN TONIGHT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECTS
EVEN WHEN THEY ARE FULLY
COMPLIANT WITH ALL LOCAL ZONING
AND REGULATORY REQUIREMENTS.
THESE OFFICIALS UNDERSTAND THAT
IN MOST CASES AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PROPONENTS WILL HAVE NO
PRACTICAL MEANS. TO CHALLENGE
THE UNLAWFUL DENIAL AS THE
CURRENT REMEDY. LITIGATION IN
SUPERIOR COURT IS ALMOST ALWAYS
PROHIBITIVELY EXPENSIVE TIME
CONSUMING AND OTHERWISE
IMPRACTICAL. AB NINETY NINE
WOULD ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM BY
CREATING AN ALTERNATE PANEL
WITH SPECIALIZED EXPERTISE.
MODERN OFTEN PRO TO HAS
SUCCESSFULLY BEEN IMPLEMENTED
IN OTHER STATES THE
JURISDICTION OF THE REVIEW
PANEL WOULD BE LIMITED TO A
NARROW SINGLE ISSUE. WHETHER
THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT VIOLATED
THE HOUSING ACCOUNTABILITY ACT
BY DISAPPROVING A PROJECT
WITHOUT MAKING THE APPROPRIATE
FINDINGS AS REQUIRED BY LAW. IT
WOULD JUST BE ABLE TO RESOLVE
DISPUTES AROUND IMPROPER AND
UNLAWFUL DENIALS ANYMORE
EXPEDITED LESS EXPENSIVE LESS
CONFRONTATIONAL AND MORE
CONSISTENT MANNER. TO BE CLEAR
AB NINE EIGHT NINE SIMPLY
PROVIDES A NEW PROCEDURAL
REMEDY TO RESOLVE DISPUTES IT
DOES NOT UPS ON CHANGING THE
LOCAL ZONING OR LAND USE
POLICIES OR OTHERWISE CHANGE
SUBSTANTIVE STATE LAW AROUND
HOUSING. LOCAL JURISDICTIONS
THE FOLLOW STATE LAW IN GOOD
FAITH ARE HIGHLY UNLIKELY TO
HAVE ANY INTERACTION WITH THIS
PANEL WELL THOSE ARE THE BEEN
ACTIVELY AND WILLFULLY
VIOLATING THE LAW WILL BE
ENCOURAGED TO COME INTO
COMPLIANCE. THIS LESS
ADVERSARIAL AND MORE COST
EFFECTIVE APPROACH IS SUPPORTED
BY A COALITION OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING GROUPS HOUSING
ADVOCATES AND LOCAL OFFICIALS.
INCLUDING THE CALIFORNIA
HOUSING CONSORTIUM THE
CALIFORNIA COALITION FOR RAW
HOUSING AND SACRAMENTO. MAYOR
MEANT SACRAMENTO MAYOR DARRELL
STEINBERG. WITH ME TODAY TO
TESTIFY- MARK STIVERS FROM THE
CALIFORNIA HOUSING PARTNERSHIP

THE APPROPRIATE TIME WOULD
RESPECTFULLY REQUEST AN AYE

CALIFORNIA HOUSING PARTNERSHIP.
THE PARTNERSHIP WAS ACTUALLY
CREATED BY THE LEGISLATURE TO
ADVICE ON- PRODUCTION AND
PRESERVING OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING- IN THE BOOK THE
PARTNERSHIP ALSO PROVIDES
TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO MOST OF
THE NONPROFIT AFFORDABLE
HOUSING DEVELOPERS IN THE
STATE. OUR PARTNERS ARE ARE
WELL AWARE THAT THERE ARE A
NUMBER OF COMMUNITIES THAT ARE
ON WALKING OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING. THE PARTNERSHIP OFTEN
HEARS FROM OUR DEVELOPERS THAT
THEY ARE NOT THEY WILL NOT TAKE
THE FINANCIAL RISK TO BUY A
PROPERTY IF THEY DON'T THINK
THEY CAN GET THROUGH THE LOCAL
ENTITLEMENT PROCESS. WELL THE
EXISTING HOUSING ACCOUNTABILITY
ACT IN THEORY PROTECTS
DEVELOPERS FROM ARBITRATE NILES.
ARE UNREASONABLE CONDITIONS THE
MAKE DEVELOPMENT IN FEW. IS A
RELATIVE. AND PART- VERY FEW
DEVELOPERS WILL SPEND HUNDREDS
OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN
LEGAL FEES INTEREST AND OTHER
ADDITIONAL CARRYING COSTS AT
LEAST TWO YEARS OF THEIR TIME
TO GO THROUGH THE COURTS. AN
ADMINISTRATIVE APPEALS CUT
PROCESS HAS BEEN TRYING TO PASS
ACCESSIBLE IN MASSACHUSETTS
WHERE IT'S BEEN IN PLACE SINCE
NINETEEN SEVENTY ONE. RHODE
ISLAND ILLINOIS AND OREGON.
DEVELOPERS ACTUALLY USE THE
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS IN THE
STATE'S WHEREAS. AND THEY THEY
RARELY USE THE COURTS HERE IN
CALIFORNIA. OUR DEVELOPER
PARTNERS TELL US THAT EVEN
NINETEEN EIGHTY NINE WILL
SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGE THE RISK
PROFILE. GIVING THEM GREATER

COMMENTS CONCERNS OF MOTION
PLEASE. MOVE THE BILL. ON
HERE'S ONE MATE TWO COMMENTS
JUST TO BE. CLEAR A COUPLE OF
THINGS- A BIG FAN OF MR STIVERS
I DO ACTUALLY OF A DIFFERENT.
PERSPECTIVE ON THE
EFFECTIVENESS OF THE HA I AGREE
THAT FOR MANY MANY YEARS THE HA
WAS BORDERLINE. DEAD LETTER NO
ONE WAS USING IT- WE ACTUALLY
THANKS TO LEADERS OF THE CENTER
SKINNER. IN TWENTY SEVENTEEN-
DREW SIGNIFICANTLY BEEFED UP
THE HA THE REMEDIES ABILITY TO
USE THAT. ABILITY TO GET
ATTORNEYS FEES AND I THINK EVEN
IF I RECALL CORRECTLY
PENALTIES- FROM. CITIES THAT
WAS A VERY HARD BILL THAT
REALLY GAVE LIFE TO AND I'VE
SEEN. IN THE BAY AREA. I'M
INCLUDING MY OWN HOMETOWN- WE
HAVE SEEN. OUR DEVELOPERS BE
WILLING TO SUE. US CITIES AND
CITIES HAVE TO. PAY ATTORNEY'S
FEES AND I THINK IT HAS
ACTUALLY SHIFTED THE DYNAMIC
CITIES NO INCLUDING MY OWN CITY
OF SAN FRANCISCO WHICH HAS NOT
ALWAYS BEEN- 100% TIME THE BEST
DR. CITY OF BERKELEY WHICH USED
TO BE A VERY BAD ACTOR AND JUST
RECENTLY DENYING PROJECTS
WEALTHY CITIES ON THE
PENINSULA. SO I THINK IT HAS
HAD A REAL IMPACT I BUT I DO
AGREE THAT HAVING. A MINUTE
MINISTRY TO PROCESS- WHERE YOU
DON'T HAVE TO GO TO THE
POLITICIZATION. IS A GOOD IDEA
AND THAT'S WHY SUPPORT THOSE
ARE BUILT ON THERE'S I KNOW
THAT- THERE'S GONNA FOCUS ON
AFFORDABLE HOUSING ON THIS BILL
BUT TO BE CLEAR IT'S OFTEN I'VE
DISCUSSED. THIS BILL APPLIES AS
LONG AS THERE'S 20%
AFFORDABILITY- WHICH HAPPENS TO
BE THE INCLUSIONARY ABOUT A LOT
YOU KNOW A FAIR NUMBER OF
CITIES. HAVE SO A LOT OF
SUPERMARKET RATE WITH
INCLUSIONARY MIXED INCOME
HOUSING WILL BE PART OF THIS-
AS WELL AND SO AS WE DO THESE
CLARIFICATIONS- THEY NEED TO
BE. ABLE TO- BUT I'M HAPPY. THE
BILL- WITH MACHINE ON THE- BY.
AS SOON WE PLEASE ENTER. YEAH-
SINCE THIS IS BY BACK AND FOR
THE BILL HERE WITH THE- AND
WHAT WAS THEIR- HE- ME THROUGH.
WHAT THIS NOW MEANS THE END
RESULT. WHAT ARE THE CHANGES
COMBINING WHAT YOU ORIGINALLY
HAD. WITH THE AMENDMENTS. WHAT
DOES THAT MEAN NOW. YEAH
ABSOLUTELY SENATORS SO- ALL
WALKING THROUGH THEM AND THEN
OF COURSE IF THAT THE CHAIR
WOULD LIKE TO ADD ANY COMMENTS
TO THAT. SO PART OF THIS IS
BEFORE WE WERE HAVE- A NUMBER
OF FOLKS ON THE COMMITTEE THAT
WOULD BE- APPOINTEES OF THE
GOVERNOR AND OTHER FOLKS THAT
WERE COMING FROM LOCAL
GOVERNMENT OR HAD EXPERTISE. IN
AFFORDABLE HOUSING WE HAVE NOW
REPLACE THAT WITH A PANEL OF
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JUDGES. SO
WE'LL HAVE THOSE FOLKS INSTEAD
OF THE APPOINTEES- A SUNSET IT
HAS BEEN ADDED TO THE BILL OF
JANUARY FIRST TWENTY TWENTY
NINE. THE CAN OCCUR- ONLY AFTER
THE LOCAL AGENCY HAS MADE A
FINAL DECISION. SO THAT'S
CLEAR- BUT WE'VE ALSO BUILT IN
TIME FOR THE LOCAL AGENCY TO
CURE THE DECISION- SO THAT IF
THAT. IF THEY MAKE A DECISION
AND THEN THERE'S SOME DISPUTE
ABOUT WHETHER IT'S COMPLIANCE
COMPLYING WITH THE HOUSING
ACCOUNTABILITY ACT THE PARTIES
WOULD THEN HAVE. SOME TIME TO
GO BACK AND TRY TO NEGOTIATE
SOMETHING THAT EVERYBODY FELT
GOOD ABOUT. BEFORE THAT. REVIEW
PROCESS WOULD BE TRIGGERED-
THERE WERE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO
A FEW TIME LINES IN THE BILL-
TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT THAT
THAT THE TIMELINE WAS WORKABLE-
AND THEN OBVIOUSLY THIS FINAL
POINT. ABOUT USING THE
ADMINISTRATIVE PROCESS NOT
FIRST SO THOSE WERE THE THOSE
ARE THE MAJOR- THOSE ARE THE
MAJOR MINUTES I THINK I'VE YOU
KNOW IF YOU WANT ANYTHING MR
CHAIRMAN THAT'S THAT'S MY
UNDERSTAND YOU KNOW YOU'RE I
THINK YOU'RE- YOU'RE PRETTY
MUCH SPOT ON THERE AS A MEMBER
I THINK THAT THE ONE PIECE THAT
WE- HAD FIVE DAYS PRIOR TO
GOING INTO. A POTENTIAL
CORRECTIVE ACTION BEING ABLE TO
GET THAT LOCAL GOVERNMENT THE
SIXTY DAYS TO BE ABLE TO GET IT
DONE UNDER THEIR J. I DIDN'T
DEATH TO BE ABLE TO CORRECT IT.
NUMBER ONE. AND THEN RATHER
THAN ANY OF THE POLITICAL
APPOINTMENTS. WE'RE TAKING A
VERY SIMILAR APPROACH THAT WE
DO WITH THE BOARD OF
EQUALIZATION OR THE PUBLIC
UTILITIES COMMISSION WHERE WE
HAVE A CONTENT EXPERT IS
ADMINISTERED LAW JUDGE. HEARING
THAT AS WELL- SO THAT'S THE
REMAINDER OF THE BILL HASN'T
BEEN TOUCHED IT SIMPLY- THE
PROCESS. RELATING TO WHO. AND
IN WHAT TIMELINE I WILL HEAR
ANY OF THESE ALLEGED
VIOLATIONS. SO IT SO THE-
THERE'S STILL- THE OP. THERE'S
STILL THE RIGHT TO GO TO COURT.
YOU HAVE TO GO TO LITIGATION
THEY EVEN. EVEN WITH THIS
PROCESS IT IT IT WOULD BE
ABSOLUTE TO SAY THAT IN
INDIVIDUALS IN FRONT OF THE
MINISTRY OF LOGICS THEY HAVE TO
BE TO COMPLETE THE
ADMINISTRATIVE LAW JEFF PROCESS
BUT THEN THEY COULD TAKE- THE
JURISDICTION TO COURT. AFTER
THEY. GO THROUGH THAT PROCESS
100% TWENTY FIVE. IT DOESN'T IF
IT DOES ELIMINATE THE LET'S NOT
LOSE SIGHT DOESN'T. OF THEIR
LIVES AND A NUMBER YOU CAN AND
I'M I JUST HAD ONE OF THE
THINGS OR IF I MAY THAT. FOR
THEIR DIFFERENT CLASSES OF
PLAINTIFFS PEOPLE WHO CAN BRING
CHALLENGE UNDER THE HOUSING
KIND OF ALL THE ACT AND SO FOR.
CIVIL RIGHTS ORGANIZATIONS OR
PROSPECTIVE TENANTS THEY HAVE
THE ABILITY TO GO IMMEDIATELY
TO COURT THE- THE REVIEW PANEL.
IS INTENDED SPECIFICALLY FOR
APPLICANTS RICHEST DEVELOPERS
OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING. AND SO
WOULD YOU CONSIDER THIS THAT
IT'S GOING TO. EXPEDITE GIVE
THE OPPORTUNITY TO EXPEDITE.
BUT IT STILL GIVES THE
OPPORTUNITY TO STILL GIVES THE
RIGHT TO GO TO COURT SO. HOW
HOW DOES THAT REALLY EXPEDITE
CORRECTIVE CHAU- THE IDEA HERE
AND PART OF THIS IS BASED ON-
YOU KNOW WHAT WE'VE HEARD FROM
FOLKS IN THE FIELD BUT ALSO
WHAT WE'VE SEEN IN OTHER STATES
THAT HAVE. THAT HAVE ADOPTED
THIS APPROACH. IF SOMEBODY NOW.
D. FILES A LAWSUIT IN ALL
LIKELIHOOD IT'S GOING TO TAKE
THEM TO YEARS OF TIME RIGHT TED
WE'VE GOT GOING THROUGH THE
PROCESS OF LITIGATION IT'S
GONNA COST THEM HUNDREDS OF
THOUSANDS OR EVEN MILLIONS OF
DOLLARS. TO HAVE THAT
LITIGATED- AND THERE'S A LOT OF
UNCERTAINTY ABOUT HOW THAT
PROCESS MIGHT WORK OUT. IT'S A
LOT OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
DEVELOPERS HAVE SAIDTHEY ARE
EXTREMELY RELUCTANT EVEN WHEN
THERE'S A CLEAR. OPEN VIOLATION
OF THE HOUSING ACCOUNTABILITY
ACT TO ENGAGE IN LITIGATION
PROCESS AND SO. THIS PANEL IS
SOMETHING WHERE YOU CAN GO
BECAUSE OF THE TIME LINES THAT
ARE SET UP. YOU CAN GET A
DECISION MUCH MORE QUICKLY. YOU
CAN HAVE A LESS ADVERSARIAL
PROCESS- LESS EXPENSIVE PROCESS
AND WHAT REALLY STRUCK TO ME
ABOUT THIS. IS WHEN WE LOOK AT
THE RE THAT WAS DONE ON HOW
IT'S BEEN IN. ANOTHER STATES
BUT MASTER. A VERY SICK. NUMBER
OF THESE. THESE APPEAL. ACTION
OF SADDAM THEY'RE NOT HEARD BY
THE BOY SO. THE ME FACT THAT
THERE AN APPEAL. SURE TO GET
THE- TO GO. THEY CAN NEGOTIATED
FAITH OUT A DEAL GET TO YES AND
BE ABLE TO. TO PROCEED FOR TO
THE IDEA HERE IS TO CREATE. A
PROCESS THAT IS LESS
CONFRONTATIONAL LESS EXPENSIVE
QUICKER AND MORE EFFICIENT WITH
EXPERTS AS AS THE AS THE
CHAIRMAN. CHEN ADMINISTRATIVE
LAW JUDGES WHO HAVE DEEP SOUTH.
EXPERTISE WHO CAN HELP TO
RESOLVE THESE TO. MARC OKAY.
WELL YOU'RE HOPEFUL. RIGHT THIS
IS THIS IS B. THAT THIS WILL IN
FACT HELP. OF TO BRING PEOPLE
TOGETHER TO THE PARTIES
TOGETHER TO THE FALL I GUESS
I'M I'M CONCERNED THAT IF
THEY'RE STILL THE RIGHT TO GO
TO COURT THEN IS THIS ANOTHER.
ANOTHER DELAY. YOU KNOW IN THE
PROCESS YEAH I DON'T TO SENATE
SENATOR IF I MAY YOU KNOW THAT
THAT MIGHT MY HOPE HERE IS BORN
OUT OF TWO DIFFERENT THINGS ONE
IS THE RESEARCH WHICH- WAS DONE
BY MIT. THAT HELPED US TO
UNDERSTAND HOW THIS WORKS. IN
IN IN YOU KNOW IN PRACTICE IN
THE STATE OF MASSACHUSETTS
WHERE YOU'VE HEARD IT'S BEEN IN
PLACE FOR SEVERAL DECADES- AND
ALSO MY OWN EXPERIENCE AS AN
ATTORNEY- AND UNDERSTANDING THE
RELUCTANCE OF PEOPLE TO GO
ACTUALLY ENGAGE IN THE
LITIGATION PROCESS JUST HOW
EXTRAORDINARILY EXPENSIVE. AND
TIME CONSUMING CAN BE IT SO
OFTEN LITIGATION TO GET INTO
COLLATERAL ISSUES OF. WHAT
DOCUMENTS ARE AVAILABLE
DISCOVERED DISCOVERY WHOSE
DEPOSITION YOU GET TO TAKE I
MEAN YOU CAN JUST GO DOWN ALL
KINDS OF RABBIT HOLES IN THE
LITIGATION PROCESS. AND YOU
KNOW IN SOME WAYS THIS IS MORE
I CAN TO YOU KNOW AN EXPEDITED-
NEGOTIATION PROCESS OR OR AN
EXPEDITED RESOLUTION PROCESS
WHERE THE WHERE THE PARTIES CAN
GET TOGETHER. GET TO THE HEART
OF THE ISSUE WITH IT WITH AN
EXPERTISE WITH WITH FOLKS WITH
EXPERTISE. GET SOME KIND OF
RESOLUTION SO ULTIMATELY THERE
IS THAT OPTION OF LITIGATION AT
AT THAT THAT STILL REMAINS. BUT
I THINK BECAUSE OF INCENTIVES
IN ECONOMICS AND TIME AND A LOT
OF OTHER CONSIDERATIONS THEY'RE
GONNA BE VERY STRONG INCENTIVES
FOR FOLKS TO USE THE APPEAL
PANEL RATHER THAN TO ENTER INTO
LITIGATION. AND I KNOW THE ONLY
SAY THAT I'M SORRY NOT TRYING
TO BE CYNICAL OR NEGATIVE BUT-
OBVIOUSLY- ANY ENTITIES THE
FIGHTS. OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
AND A RESPONSIBILITY TO BUILD
AFFORDABLE HOUSING. THEY GET
PRETTY A DUG IN THEIR HEELS SO
I'M HOPEFUL. ON AND I THINK YOU
SHOULD HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO
DO IT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
SENATOR. PLEASE NO THANK YOU
ACCESS I WANT US TO RESPOND
FURTHER TO US IN REQUIRE CENTER
ROSS'S QUESTION BECAUSE IT'S
ACTUALLY THE ISSUES YOU RAISE
ARE EXACTLY WHAT WE'VE ALL BEEN
DISCUSSING FOR THE FINAL
AMENDMENT WHICH- THE BILL AS
INTRODUCED MAKES THE
ADMINISTRATIVE APPEAL OPTIONAL
TO SOMEONE CAN GO TO COURT
RIGHT WHERE THEY WANT WHERE
THEY CAN PURSUE THIS AND MANY
PEOPLE WILL PURSUE THE- OFF IF
THEY HAVE AN OPTION THE
ADMINISTRATIVE CODE BECAUSE IT
IS. I AGREE WITH ASSEMBLY
MEMBER IT'S CHEAPER IT'S FASTER
AND MORE EFFICIENT BUT THEN
THERE ARE OF COURSE THERE ARE
THE DESTRUCTION OF CITIES THAT
ARE WILLING TO PAY WHATEVER WE
KNOW WE SORT OF KNOW WHO THEY
ARE- WHERE THERE COULD BE AN
UNSETTLED QUESTION OF LAW THAT
REALLY ALL TO MY HOUSE TO GO TO
THE COURTS. AND ONE OF THE
THINGS THAT- REALLY WORKING ON
NEXT WEEK IS TO MAKE SURE THAT
FIRST SOLAR THERE REALLY FIRM
TIME LINE SO YOU CAN'T GET
CAUGHT UP IN A IF IT IS GOING
TO BE NOT A GOOD ADMINISTRATIVE
PROCESS BUT YOU'RE NOT CAUGHT
UP INDEFINITELY AND YOU CAN GO
TO COURT IF YOU NEED TO. AND
ALSO MAKING SURE THAT PEOPLE
CONTINUE TO HAVE A VERY
MEANINGFUL COURT REMEDY AND
WE'RE NOT EVEN FOR ME UNDERMINE
IT I'M NOT SO WE'RE GOING TO BE
WORKING ON OVER. THE NEXT WEEK
I'M CONFIDENT THAT WE'LL GET
THERE. ALL RIGHT. IN ADDITIONAL.
