FOR YOUNG PEOPLE TO SPEAK.
GWENDOLYN BROOKS SAID I SHALL
CREATE.
IF NOT A NOTE THE WHOLE.
IF NOT AN OVERTURE THE
DESECRATION.
YOUNG PEOPLE WILL CREATE.
THE QUESTION IS WHAT TOOLS DO WE
GIVE THEM.
I THINK THIS BILL GIVES THEM
TOOLS BY ESTABLISHING YOUTH POET
LAUREATE.
IN THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THAT
HAS PARITY WITH OUR CURRENT POET
LAUREATE. TO PUT ON ON PAR.
IT'S A MATTER OF ART.
AS A MATTER OF CONSCIENCE -- THE
NEXT GENERATIONS VOICE SO WITH
THAT I RESPECTFULLY ASK YOUR AYE
VOTE NO ONE INTRODUCE ARE
EXCELLENT WITNESSES FROM THE
CALIFORNIA ARTS COMMISSION --
ARTS COUNCIL -- BEEN DOING
INCREDIBLE WORK THESE PAST FEW
YEARS TO THE STABILIZE
INVESTMENT IN THIS SORT OF ROOTS
OF THE CREATIVE ECONOMY WHERE WE
CAN GROW TALENT -- EDITS
YIELDING BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF
DIVIDENDS -- FOR A VERY MODEST
INVESTMENT I THINK IS ONE MORE
PIECE OF THAT PUZZLE SO AND AND

THE CALIFORNIA ARTS COUNCIL
SUBMITTED A FORMAL REQUEST TO
THE GOVERNOR'S OFFICE TO BRING
THIS LEGISLATION TO ESTABLISH A
CALIFORNIA.
YOUTH POET LAUREATE.
WHO SHALL BE APPOINTED BY
GOVERNOR NEWS SOME AND CONFIRMED
BY THE SENATE FROM A LIST OF
THREE NOMINEES THAT WE PROVIDE
THROUGH -- A VERY SPECIFIC
PROCESS THAT WE HAVE.
THE CALIFORNIA YOUTH POET
LAUREATE AS A GOVERNOR'S
APPOINTEE WOULD HAVE THE MISSION
TO ADVOCATE FOR THE ART OF
POETRY IN CLASSROOMS AND
COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE STATE.
AND TO INSPIRE AND EMERGING
GENERATION OF LITERARY ARTISTS.
AND TO EDUCATE ALL CALIFORNIANS
ABOUT THE MANY POETS AND AUTHORS.
THAT HAVE INFLUENCED OUR GREAT
STATE THROUGH CREATIVE LITERARY

THOUSANDS OF HIGH SCHOOL

OF GIVING USE THAT YOUNG ADULTS
STATEWIDE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
PARTICIPATE IN PUBLIC SERVICE --
IS IS A WONDERFUL THING -- WE

I CAN GO AHEAD GOOD MORNING MY
NAME IS PATTY MAKE JANET I'M
WITH LOS ANGELES -- TO RESUME
AND CONVENTION BOARD -- AND WE
ARE HERE -- TO GAIN COURAGE YOU.
TO MOVE THIS BILL FOR WORK -- WE
BELIEVE THAT IT IS QUITE
NECESSARY BECAUSE CITIES AND
STATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY HAVE
REALLY COME TO UNDERSTAND THE
SIGNIFICANT ECONOMIC IMPACTS OF
THESE EVENTS AND IT'S GOT TO BE
VERY VERY COMPETITIVE PROCESS.
AND SO NOT JUST LARGEST NATIONS
LIKE OURSELVES BUT SMALLER
DESTINATIONS WITHIN THE STATE
REALLY DO NEED ASSISTANCE IN
TRYING TO ATTRACT THESE FUNDS
HAVE BEEN THAT WE WILL CONTINUE.
TO FUND RAISE IT WILL CONTINUE
TO WORK WITH OUR HOST COMMITTEE
SIX CENTER BUT THE INCENTIVE --
TO THE FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE TO
MOVE IT FORWARD IT WILL REALLY
BE APPRECIATED AND IT'S NOT A
NEW CONCEPT OF THE STATE OF
TEXAS FOR INSTANCE FLORIDA --
HAVE BEEN VERY SUCCESSFUL TEXAS
IN PARTICULAR -- WITHIN THE LAST
TEN YEARS THE FACT OF LIKE THREE
HUNDRED AND FIFTY EVENTS TO
THEIR AREA.
SO -- THE YOU'LL SEE FLORIDA THE
ATLANTA OTHER CITIES STARTING TO
REPLICATE THAT AS WELL.
AND SO -- THE LAST THING I JUST
WANT TO SAY IS THAT WE ARE
FEELING -- VERY SUPPORTED BY THE
OTHER TOURISM OFFICE TO
CALIFORNIA'S YOU SEE BY THE
SUPPORT LETTERS WE'VE GOT NEARLY
FORTY LETTERS THAT CAME IN AGAIN
FROM DESTINATIONS BOTH URBAN AND
RURAL -- SO WE THINK THAT THERE
IS BEING ABOUT THE INDUSTRY
THERE IS VERY MUCH WIDE SUPPORT
FOR THIS PROJECT YOU'RE GREAT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH AND WOULD
HELP HER PHONE LOS ANGELES THOSE
HERE FROM SAN JOSE.
YEAH GOOD MORNING THANK YOU
MISTER CHAIR AND MEMBERS OF THE
COMMITTEE MY NAME IS CAROLYN
KERR KESSLER AND I'M THE CEO
VISITS AND I WAS A TEAM SAN JOSE.
WE ARE THE OFFICIAL DESTINATION
MARKETING ORGANIZATION AND WE
ALSO MANAGED TO SAN JOSE MCENERY
CONVENTION CENTER ALONG WITH
FOUR THEATERS.
IN THE PAST FOUR YEARS SAN JOSE
IS HOSTED FOR MAJOR SPORTING
EVENTS THAT REQUIRED A
SIGNIFICANT LOCAL INVESTMENT.
IN TWO THOUSAND FIFTEEN WE
PARTNERED WITH LEVI STADIUM IN
SANTA CLARA TO HOST WRESTLEMANIA
THIRTY ONE THIS EVEN COST OUR
ORGANIZATION AND THE SPORTS
AUTHORITY A TOTAL OF ALMOST ONE
MILLION DOLLARS JUST A HOST THAT
DOESN'T INCLUDE ANYTHING THAT.
SANTA CLARA MIGHT HAVE DONE OR
LEVI STADIUM.
IN TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN ONE
SUPER BOWL FIFTY TOOK PLACE IN
LEVI STADIUM WHICH IS
APPROXIMATELY NINE MILES FROM
OUR DOWNTOWN WE INVESTED ALMOST
TWO POINT TWO MILLION DOLLARS
JUST IN SAN JOSE ALONE.
I IMAGINE THAT SAN FRANCISCO'S
INVESTMENT WAS SIGNIFICANTLY
MORE BECAUSE THAT'S WHERE MANY
OF MUCH OF THE ACTIVATION WAS
DONE.
THAT EVEN BROUGHT ABOUT TWO
HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILLION
DOLLARS TO THE BAY AREA.
EARLIER THIS YEAR WE HOSTED TWO
MAJOR EVENTS JUST WEEKS APART
AND IT WAS A REAL FINANCIAL
STRAIN FOR US THE COLLEGE
FOOTBALL PLAYOFF NATIONAL
CHAMPIONSHIPS REQUIRED AN
OVERALL INVESTMENT OF ALMOST TWO
POINT FOUR MILLION DOLLARS.
A FEW WEEKS LATER THE NHL ALL
STAR GAME TOOK PLACE AND THEY
NEED AN INVESTMENT OF ALMOST A
HALF A MILLION DOLLARS.
WELL SO WITH SOME EVENTS THEIR
BID FEES INVOLVED IN THERE ARE
SOME SMALLER EVENTS THAT OTHER
CITIES COULD HOST FOR INSTANCE
THE US GYMNASTICS CHAMPIONSHIPS
AND CONGRESS -- THIRTEEN TRIALS
THEY REQUIRE A HUNDRED AND FIFTY
THOUSAND DOLLAR BID FOR YOU JUST
TO PUT IN A BAD SO THAT DOESN'T
INCLUDE ALL OF THE OTHER --
COSTS THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH
IT WE WOULD LOVE TO BE ABLE TO
BUILD MORE OF THESE BUT HONESTLY
IT'S A REAL FINANCIAL STRAIN SO
WE HAVE -- TO PICK AND CHOOSE
WERE ALWAYS COMPETING WITH OTHER
STATES I DON'T KNOW OF A TIME
WHEN WE'VE ACTUALLY COMPETED
WITH ANYONE ELSE IN THE STATE
BECAUSE WE DO A GOOD JOB OF
SOMEBODY ELSE IS GOING FOR WE
TYPICALLY DON'T -- SO WE WE WANT
THE BUSINESS AND CALIFORNIA I'VE
ONLY GIVEN YOU EXAMPLES OF
SPORTING EVENTS BECAUSE THAT'S
PARTICULARLY WHAT MY
ORGANIZATION HAS BEEN INVOLVED
IN BUT THERE ARE NOT A DOZENS OF
OTHER CULTURAL AGRICULTURAL AND
ENTERTAINMENT EVENTS.
THAT WOULD ALSO BE IMPACTED BY
THIS THESE EVENTS ATTRACT
INTERNATIONAL ATTENTION THEY
PROVIDE REVENUES FOR HOTELS
RESTAURANTS SHOPPING
TRANSPORTATION AND THEY CREATE
AND FOSTER INNOVATION AND
ENCOURAGE SPILLOVER EFFECTS THAT
CREATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR OTHER
INDUSTRIES BY ATTRACTING
INVESTMENT.
TOURISM CONSUMER SPENDING AND BY
GENERATING TAX REVENUE.
SO WE THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING
THIS BILL -- AND WE RESPECTFULLY
REQUEST TO VOTE IN FAVOR.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH A MILITARY
STRUCTURE AND MEMBERS BOB YOU'RE
ON BEHALF OF THE LOS ANGELES
RAMS ORGANIZATION IN THE LOS
ANGELES CLIPPERS ORGANIZATION.
WOULD LIKE TO THANKS AND
REMEMBERED FOR HIS BILL -- I
THINK I'D JUST ONE ECHO WITH THE
OTHER -- WITNESSES OF SAID BUT I
ALSO WANT TO SAY THAT MOST OF
THESE EVENTS THEIR WEEK LONG
EVENTS THEIR WEEK LONG EVENTS
THAT BRING IN.
A LOT OF REVENUE TO THE LOCAL
ECONOMY AND IT TAKES A LOT OF
WORK ON BEHALF OF THE LOCAL
ORGANIZATIONS THAT SPONSOR THEM.
IT ALSO GENERATES JOBS.
I'M ALSO HERE ON BEHALF OF THE
PAINTERS DISTRICT COUNCIL THIRTY
SIX THAT REPRESENT THE SIGN IN
PICTORIAL DISPLAY UNION WORKERS
THEY DO ALL THE TRADE SHOWS THEY
DO ALL THE LINING IN THE END
ZONE PAINTING. FOR ALL THE
ATHLETIC EVENTS SO THERE ARE
JOBS GENERATED BUT THERE HAS TO
BE MONEY ON THE FRONT END. ONE
OF THE OTHER EVENTS THAT I WOULD
NOTE IS THAT EVERY YEAR THE CITY
OF MODESTO HOSTS THE AMERICAN
GRAFFITI -- CREWS AND THAT HAS
GONE FROM SIX HUNDRED CARS TWO
THREE THOUSAND CARDS THIS YEAR
THAT IS THE LARGEST REVENUE
GENERATOR FOR THE CITY MODESTO
AND HAS BEEN FOR THE LAST TWENTY
YEARS.
SO ON ON MY ORGANIZATIONS BEHALF
WE SUPPORT THE BILL AND THINKS
AND AMBER. THREE THANK YOU VERY
MUCH AT ANY ADDITIONAL WITNESSES
IN SUPPORT PLEASE MORNING FULLER
CALMLY WITH THE LA COUNTY BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS IN STRONG SUPPORT.
THANK YOU.

SOME OF THE EFFORTS.
IN BRINGING SOME OF THESE BIG
ITEM -- CONVENTIONS THAT TO OUR
CITY AND WE SOMETIMES HAVE IT
COMPETED AWAY BY MUCH SMALLER
PLACES.
AND IT'S THIS PROGRAM IS SUCH A
WONDERFUL PROGRAM BECAUSE IT
ALMOST AS LIKE A MICRO LOAN.
SYSTEM OF HELPING INCENTIVIZE
OUR LOCAL JURISDICTIONS -- TO TO
BRING IN PROGRAM PROJECTS INTO
INTO IT INTO THEIR DOMAIN.
AND I JUST WONDER IN TEN YEARS
FROM NOW HOW WE CAN LOOK BACK
AND SAY FOR EVERY DOLLAR SPENT
BY THE STATE -- HOW MUCH THE
CITIES WERE ABLE TO BENEFIT --
AND WITH THAT THE ONLY THING I
WOULD ALSO SAY IS -- I'M SORRY
THAT THE BILL WAS AMENDED -- TO
TO TO TO BE WHAT IT IS NOW BUT
IT'S A STARTING POINT AND SO
WILL HOPEFULLY STRENGTHENING
STRENGTHENED TO WHAT IT -- IT'LL
BECOME EVENTUALLY WHAT THE
INITIAL BILL WAS MEANT TO BE.
SO THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR
WORK ON THE SENATOR WELL THANK
YOU -- ASSEMBLY MEMBER IN HIS
AREA OF THIS IS A WORK IN
PROGRESS AND AND WE DO EXPECT

UNDERLINE THE PARTICIPATION THE
ARTS COUNCIL AS WAS MENTIONED.
THAT'S A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF
THIS AND MUCH OF THE
CONVERSATIONS BEEN AROUND SPORTS.
SPORTS IMPORTANT WE LIKE SPORTS --
BUT THE OTHER ACTIVITIES WITH
SHAKESPEARE FESTIVAL OR WHETHER
IT'S THE AMERICAN GRAFFITI EVENT
IN FRESNO WHETHER IT'S A RODEO
ALL ALL THOSE THINGS.
ARE.
INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT FOR
CALIFORNIA TO BE COMPETITIVE
WITH OTHER STATES AND THAT'S
PART OF THE PURPOSE.
OF THE SECOND QUESTION IS
WHETHER I THINK IT WAS WHETHER
THIS IS MY ORIGINAL IDEA.
AND I WOULD LOVE TO CLAIM CREDIT
BUT IS NOT MY ORIGINAL IDEA --

CREATED THE IDEA AND I'M MERELY
A VEHICLE.

ECONOMY IS IS DE TERMINOLOGY
