I THINK ALL OF YOU FOR BEING

ON.
THANK YOU DOCTOR CHOI FOR
INTRODUCING AB NINETEEN TWENTY
FIVE THIS LEGISLATIVE SESSION.
AS YOU KNOW OUR SON ETHAN
HAWKE'S WAS TRAGICALLY KILLED ON
NOVEMBER TWENTY FOURTH.
TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN AS RESULT
OF DEBRIS ON THE FIFTY SEVEN
FREEWAY.
HE WAS JUST ONE MONTH PASSED HIS
SEVENTEENTH BIRTHDAY.
HE MADE AN IMPACT ON EVERY
INDIVIDUAL WHO IS BLESSED TO
MEET HIM.
THE SEVEN HUNDRED PLUS PEOPLE
WHO ATTENDED HIS MEMORIAL
SERVICE CAN ATTEST TO THAT.
HE CONTINUES TO BE MISSED EVERY
SINGLE MOMENT OF EVERY SINGLE
DAY. BY THOSE WHO LOVED HIM.
I HOPE THAT THIS BILL WILL PASS
CAN HELP PREVENT THIS
UNSPEAKABLE TRAGEDY FROM
HAPPENING TO ANOTHER FAMILY.
ON SATURDAY NOVEMBER NINETEENTH
TWO THOUSAND SIXTEEN AS I WAS
DRIVING HE SAID.
TO PICK UP A GIRL HE LIKED FOR
THEIR VERY FIRST DAY.
I WAS PLANNING ON TAKING HIM TO
GET HIS LEARNERS PERMIT THE
FOLLOWING WEEK.
A LARGE CHUNK OF METAL CAME
THROUGH OUR WHEN CHILDREN HIT MY
SON.
IT CAME AT US WITH SUCH VELOCITY
THAT THE CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY
PATROL OFFICERS ESTIMATE AROUND.
A HUNDRED AND FIFTY MILES PER
HOUR.
THAT I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO
REACT OR AVOID THE OBJECT.
IT TORE A HOLE IN OUR
WINDSHIELDS AND SLICE THROUGH MY
SON.
SEVERING HIS CAROTID ARTERY AND
REMOVING HALF OF THE RIGHT SIDE
OF HIS FACE.
IT THEN CONTINUED WITH SUCH
FORCE THAT IT BROKE HIS SEAT
CAUSED CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO
THE STEEL OF THE REAR PASSENGER
DOOR.
FINALLY COMING TO A STOP IN THE
REAR PASSENGER SEAT. WHERE THE
CHP OFFICERS FOUND IT?
THIS CHUNK OF METAL WEIGHING AN
ESTIMATED FOUR TO SEVEN POUNDS.
WAS LAUNCHED AT US FROM WHERE WE
KNOW NOT THAT THE CHP BELIEVED
THAT IT WAS LIKELY DEBRIS. WHICH
HAD FALLEN OFF ANOTHER VEHICLE
AND THEN HAVING BEEN LEFT IN THE
ROAD.
WHO IS ELEVATED BY YET ANOTHER
VEHICLE AND HURL HURLED AT OUR
VEHICLE AND MY CHILD?
MY SON NEEDS AND WAS INCREDIBLY
STRONG I FULLY BELIEVE THAT ANY
OTHER INDIVIDUAL IN HIS
CONDITION WOULD HAVE BEEN LOST
IN THE CAR THAT DAY.
BUT MY ETHAN HUNG ON.
WELL I DROVE HIM TO THE HOSPITAL
APPLYING PRESSURE TO HIS WOUND
THE DAMAGE TO HIS CAROTID ARTERY
PATA STROKED THE RIGHT
HEMISPHERE OF HIS BRAIN.
HIS JOB WAS SHATTERED IN HIS
FACE WAS TORN. FROM HERE ALLEN.
HE WASN'T SURGERY FOR OUR SIMPLY
JUST TRYING TO STOP THE
BLEEDING.
AND CLOSE HIS FACE.
LATER PLANS TO REBUILD A NEW JOB
FROM ISRAEL BEEN REPAIRED THE
OTHER INJURIES SUSTAINED WOULD
HAVE WAITED UNTIL MUCH FARTHER
ALONG IN ITS RECOVERY. HAD HE
MADE IT THAT FAR.
TWO AND A HALF HOURS FOLLOWING
THAT FIRST SURGERY HE WAS RUSHED
BACK FOR ANOTHER THREE AND A
HALF HOURS OF SURGERY.
TO HAVE THE RIGHT SIDE OF HIS
SKULL REMOVED SO THAT THE
SWELLING IN HIS BRAIN COULD FIND
SOME RELIEF.
HE LOST PART OF HIS RIGHT
FRONTAL OPEN THAT SURGERY HAVING
BEEN CRUSHED BY THE SWELLING.
AND SUSTAINING TOO MUCH DAMAGE
TO SAY.
OVER THE NEXT FIVE DAYS EATEN
INTO OUR TO MORE PROCEDURES TO
INSERT PROBES.
INTO HIS BRAIN TO MONITOR
SWELLING IN ACTIVITY.
ALONG WITH OTHER MEDICAL EFFORTS
TO SAVE HIS LIFE.
THE BEST TRAUMA TEAM
NEUROSURGERY TEAM AND I SEE YOU
TEAM DID EVERYTHING WITHIN THEIR
POWER TO TRY TO SAVE MY SON.
FOR FIVE DAYS HE FOUGHT TO CLING
TO LIFE ULTIMATELY.
EATEN SUCCUMBED TO HIS INJURIES
AT FIVE THREE AM. THANKSGIVING
MORNING.
UPON LEAVING THE HOSPITAL AFTER
LOSING MY SON.
THE CAR EAT THEN SISTER AND
FATHER WRITING IN.
ALSO HAD A CLOSE CALL ON THE
SAME FIFTY SEVEN FREEWAY.
AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME
LOCATION GOING IN THE OPPOSITE
DIRECTION. NORTHBOUND.
A PIECE OF WOOD SIMILAR TO A TWO
BY FOUR FLUID THE VEHICLE'S
WINDSHIELD. AND ALMOST TOOK OUT
THE REST OF MY FAMILY.
THIS HAS TO STOP.
I SPEAK TO YOU TODAY NOT JUST ON
BEHALF OF MYSELF ANY AND BUT.
ALSO ALL OF THE OTHER FAMILIES
WHO CAN'T BE HERE TODAY.
THE ONES WHO HAVE BEEN LOST.
THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN INJURED HAD
PROPERTY DAMAGE IN THOSE WHO.
ARE MISSING LOVED ONES TODAY
BECAUSE OF OTHER PEOPLE NOT
SECURING THEIR LOADS.
EVERY SINGLE DAY I SEE VEHICLES
DRIVING WITH UNSAFE FLOATS
INDIVIDUALS WHO KNOW WHAT
HAPPENED HE SAID. REGULARLY
APPROACH ME TO REPORT THAT THEY
SAW AND SAFE VEHICLES ARE ITEMS
LEFT IN THE ROADWAYS. REPORTING
NEAR MISSES ON THEIR WAY TO
WORK.
DESCRIBING THE ACCIDENT THEY SAW
UNFOLD BEFORE THEIR EYES DUE TO
DEBRIS ON THE ROADWAYS AND
HIGHWAYS.
FAR TOO OFTEN PEOPLE FIND
LADDERS FURNITURE PIPES TOOLS
PAULA MANNER OF DEBRIS ON THE
ROADWAYS AND HIGHWAYS.
HAVING TIME ENOUGH TO TRY TO
AVOID SUCH ITEMS HAS A HIGH
PROBABILITY OF CAUSING ANOTHER
COLLISION. WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE.
MORE OFTEN HOWEVER THESE
MOTORISTS ARE TRAVELING AT SUCH
SPEEDS.
THE DAY UNWITTINGLY HIT THESE
ITEMS CAUSING DAMAGE TO THEIR
VEHICLES. AND ARE CATAPULTING
THESE ITEMS. INTO SOME OTHER
UNSUSPECTING MOTORIST OR
PASSENGER LIKE MY SON.
THIS IS LIKELY WHAT HAPPENED TO
EAT THEN AND WHAT HAPPENS TO
MANY MORE.
BUT WE CANNOT LET THIS CONTINUE.
SOMETHING MUST BE DONE TO
PROTECT THE CITIZENS OF
CALIFORNIA.
I BROUGHT WITH ME TODAY JUST.
THREE PHOTOS OF.
EVERYDAY PEOPLE ON.
JUST NORMAL ROADS ON MY WAY TO
WORK.
AB NINETEEN TWENTY FIVE SEEKS TO
EDUCATE THE PUBLIC ON THE
HAZARDS OF TRAVELING WITH UNSAFE
UNSECURED LOADS.
THIS KNOWLEDGE HAS THE POWER TO
REDUCE THE LIKELIHOOD OF ANOTHER
TRAGEDY LIKE THIS HAPPENING TO
SOMEONE ELSE.
MAYBE SOMEONE YOU LOVED MAYBE
SOMEONE YOU KNOW.
THIS INFORMATION WILL LEAD TO
GREATER ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THOSE
WHO DISREGARD THE LOT BECAUSE
DAMAGE OR INJURES SOMEONE WITH
THEIR NEGLIGENCE. AND WILL
HOPEFULLY MAKE OTHERS THINK
TWICE BEFORE CARRYING AND
SECURED CARGO. THAT MAY HAVE THE
POTENTIAL TO KILL SOMEONE ELSE'S
CHILD. GRANDCHILD PARENT SIBLING

FIFTY EIGHT WOULD ENSURE THAT

PERTAINING TO THE NUMBER OF
CANNABIS DO YOU AYE ARREST THAT
OCCUR ANNUALLY. THIS DATA WILL
BE HELPFUL IN ASSISTING THE
STATE TO COME UP WITH AN
INFORMED POLICY AROUND CANNABIS
DE WISE. AS WE TRANSITION INTO
THE LEGALIZED CANNABIS MARKET.
CURRENTLY CALIFORNIA HAS NO WAY
TO DETERMINE HOW MANY PEOPLE ARE
ARRESTED FOR CANNABIS STEEL Y.
ANNUALLY.
BECAUSE EVERY LAW ENFORCEMENT
ENTITY TRACKS THIS DATA
INDIVIDUALLY AND INDEPENDENTLY.
AND THERE CURRENTLY ISN'T A
REQUIREMENT TO REPORT THE SAYS
THAT.
AS WE HAVE SEEN IN OTHER STATES
THAT HAVE LEGALIZED CANNABIS AN
INCREASE IN CANADA'S DRUG
DRIVING. CAN BE EXPECTED DUE TO
LEGALIZATION ACCORDING TO THE
DENVER POST AFTER LEGALIZATION
THE STATES OF COLORADO AND
WASHINGTON. BOTH EXPERIENCED AN
INCREASE IN CANADA SO INVOLVED
ACCIDENTS ARE INVOLVING
FATALITIES WITH THE WASHINGTON
STATE EXPERIENCING AN EIGHTY ONE
PERCENT INCREASE IN THESE
ACCIDENTS.
AND ON THE OTHER HAND COLORADO
EXPERIENCE THE ONE HUNDRED FORTY
FIVE PERCENT INCREASE IN THESE
ACCIDENTS BETWEEN A YEAR TWENTY
THIRTEEN AND TWENTY SIXTEEN.
SO IN ORDER TO ENSURE THAT THE
STATE HOUSE ACCURATE AND
RELIABLE DATA ON CANNABIS DO YOU
WISE. THIS BILL AB TWENTY FIFTY
EIGHT WOULD REQUIRE LAW
ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES TO REPORT.
TO THE DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE TO
NUMBER OF ARRESTS MADE IN WHICH
CANNABIS WAS SUSPECTED TO BE THE
SUBSTANCE OR ONE OF THE
SUBSTANCES OF WHICH THE OTHER
PERSON HAS SO WAS DRIVING UNDER
THE INFLUENCE OF OUR.
HOW THE DOJ WOULD THEN BE
REQUIRED TO DEVELOP A FORM A
WILL PRESCRIBE A FORMAT FOR LAW
ENFORCEMENT TO REPORT TO STATE
OF BY? A APRIL FIRST TWENTY
TWENTY TWO. ADDITIONALLY THIS
BILL WOULD REQUIRE DATA CANNABIS
DO YOU AYE ARREST DATA TO BE
INCLUDED IN THE D. M. V.. ANNUAL
REPORT ON THE EFFICACY OF
INTERVENTION PROGRAMS FOR
PERSONS CONVICTED OF A DUI.
ARE CURRENTLY THE BILL HAS NO

TECHNICAL EDUCATION PROGRAMS.
CURRENTLY THERE ARE NO RECORDS
IN PLACE THAT MEASURE LONG TERM
STUDENT SUCCESS.
KRIS STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED

OF THOSE GOALS FOCUSES ON
INCREASING BY TWENTY PERCENT THE
NUMBER OF STUDENTS WHO OBTAIN AN
INDUSTRY VALUED CREDENTIAL. ONE
OF THE WAYS THAT WE DETERMINE
WHETHER OR NOT OUR PROGRAMS ARE
ALIGNING WITH INDUSTRY NEEDS IS
BY DOING A DATA MATCH THAT

IT IS THEN PROVIDED IN THE
AGGREGATE FOR INSTITUTIONS FOR

THANK YOU MARK MCDONALD ON
BEHALF OF THE FOOTHILL DE ANZA
AND KERN COMMUNITY COLLEGE
DISTRICTS IN SUPPORT OF THE
BILL.
ARE THERE ANY.
INDIVIDUALS THAT LIKE TO SPEAK
IN OPPOSITION.
SEEING NONE OTHER ANY QUESTIONS
FROM THE COMMITTEE ON THIS
BAKER.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND I'M
THINK YOU MISSED MEDINA. AYE
MEASURE LIKE IT'S SEE THIS
HIGHER EDUCATION AS WELL WITH
BOTH WELL BY TEN TO A COUPLE
QUESTIONS REAL AND THEY ARE
ABOUT PRIVACY CONCERNS.
AND ESPECIALLY WITH SO SECURITY
NUMBERS.
FIRST ONE IS.
IS WHAT WHAT OTHER ALTERNATE WHY
SO SECURITY NUMBERS
WHERE THERE ARE OTHER WAYS IN
WHICH TO GET THIS INFORMATION.
AVAILABLE.
THE COMMUNITY COLLEGES CURRENTLY
HAS THE DATA SHARING AGREEMENT
WITH THE EMPLOYMENT DEVELOP.
IMPLEMENT ABOUT MY DEPARTMENT
AND WHAT WE UNDERSTAND FROM THAT
EXISTING DATA SHARING AGREEMENT
IS THE ONLY WAY THAT THEY CAN DO
THIS WAGE FILE MATCHES WITH THE
FULL SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER. WE
HAVE EXPLORED OTHER IDEAS LIKE
JUST USING THE LAST FOR DOING A
FUZZY MATCHING WE'VE BEEN TOLD
THERE'S NOT AN OPTION THERE.
WELL I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT
ANSWER BECAUSE I'VE LOOKED INTO
EDT A LOT.
WITH WHAT THEY DO WITH SOCIAL
SECURITY NUMBERS. AND.
THERE REQUIREMENTS THAT THEY
STILL USE FULL SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBERS INCLUDING FOR MAILING
INFORMATION TO PEOPLE THAT HAS
THEIR FULL ADDRESS FULL NAME IN
FULL SO SECURITY NUMBERS.
AND MET WITH THEM DIRECTLY TO
SEE HOW THEY CAN TAKE CARE OF
THAT IN WHY THEY CAN'T USE.
ONLY FOUR DIGITS AND I. AM SORRY
THAT THAT'S THE BEST WE CAN DO
FOR SAY WHY WOULD YOU HOLD IT
WHOLE NUMBERS WE SHOULDN'T.
I MEAN I REALLY THINK. IT'S EVEN
A QUESTION MARK IF WE SHOULD USE
THE LAST FOUR DIGITS BUT AT A
MINIMUM WE SHOULD NOT BE
CONTINUING TO SPREAD THE
PROBLEM.
AND AM EDT HE'S GOT ITS OWN
PROBLEMS ON THIS SAYS THEY THINK
THEY'RE GONNA TAKE SIX OR SEVEN
YEARS TO DIG OUT OF IT.
THAT'S THE BEST THEY CAN DO WE
SHOULD NOT BE PUT IN I
PERSONALLY VERSION OF BETWEEN
THE DEPARTMENT.
OF MOTOR VEHICLES RIGHT DOWN
THAT SAME PATH.
ESPECIALLY BECAUSE WE ARE
REFERRING TO A VERY PRIVATE
NUMBERS THAT ARE CONSTITUENTS
ALREADY ARE VERY CONCERNED GET
SHARED NOT JUST BY GOVERNMENT
BUT IN GENERAL.
WHICH GOES TO MY NEXT QUESTION
AND THAT IS HAVE YOU THOUGHTS OR
COULD YOU DO GIVEN THE.
HEIGHTENED PRIVACY CONCERNS
AND HOW VERY IMPORTANT IT IS WE
DON'T JUST READ DO BAD POLICY
AND BAD USE OF SO SECURE MEMBERS
BY THE STATE. HAVE YOU
CONSIDERED AN OPT IN.
OR ARE GETTING THE INFORMATION
DIRECTLY WITH PERMISSION FROM
THE PEOPLE THAT YOU'RE SU SU
SECURITY AND SOCIAL SECURITY
NUMBERS ARE TRYING TO GET
EMPOWERING. THEM TO CONTROL
WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WITH
THEIR NUMBERS.
BECAUSE I THINK THAT IS.
AND MINIMUM A BEST PRACTICES AND
EIGHT I DON'T IF YOU LOOK AT
THAT OPTION AND IF NOT WHY
THAT'S NOT MORE FEASIBLE.
IF.
SO UNDER EXISTING PRACTICE ARE
THE CHANCELLOR'S OFFICE YES YOU
AND YOU SEE ALL USE THIS
EXISTING MECHANISM. WITHOUT AN
OPT IN IN THE INFORMATION ONLY
COMES BACK FOR.
POLICYMAKERS ARE COLLEGE USE IN
THE AGGREGATE SO THERE'S NO
PERSONAL IDENTIFYING INFORMATION
THAT HAPPENS THROUGH THAT.
WE HAVE. THIS QUESTION CAME UP
ABOUT WHETHER OR NOT WE COULD DO
AN OPT IN OR OPT OUT PROCESS.
AND I THINK OUR ONLY CONCERN IS
ABOUT THE HOW THAT WOULD
FUNCTION THROUGH THE TWO OFFICES
RIGHT I MEAN I THINK WE WOULD
HAVE TO STEP. GO BACK AND TALK
TO OUR SPECIFIC DATA FOLKS TO
SEE. HOW THAT PROCESS WOULD
WOULD LOOK LIKE?
AND WHAT THAT WOULD ENTAIL IF
IT'S EVEN POSSIBLE. WE DID A
SIMILAR PROCESS FOR THE STUDENT
THE COMMISSION WHERE RIGHT NOW
PLEASE SHARE.
INFORMATION FROM K. TWELVE
DISTRICTS TO STUDENT A
COMMISSION SO WE CAN TRY AND GET
THEM AS MUCH FINANCIAL AID IS
POSSIBLE. BUT NOT PROCESS DID
INCLUDE AN OPT OUT FOR STUDENTS
AND SO WE'RE THINKING MAYBE
THERE'S A MODEL THERE THAT WE TO
FOLLOW BUT WE JUST WEREN'T READY
TO ANSWER THAT QUESTION TODAY.
AND AND. I THINK YOU BECAUSE I
ONLY KNOW TO THE CHAIR TO HAVE
HIGHER EDUCATION TO BE LOOKING
OUT FOR STUDENTS AND COMPLETELY
SUPPORT THE NEED FOR US TO HAVE
INFORMATION THAT'S RELIABLE. SO
WE CAN KNOW WHAT WORKS AND WE
CAN WE CAN AND REINFORCE THOSE
PROGRAMS THAT WORK AND SEE WHAT
DOESN'T WORK ABOUT OTHERS AND
HOW WE CAN HELP. ESPECIALLY WHEN
IT COMES TO CRITICAL EDUCATION
THAT REALLY ANYTHING GOVERNMENT
DOES I'M I I CAN'T SUPPORT THE
BILL THIS TIME MAYBE BY THE TIME
YOU SAW HER EDUCATIONAL. HOW
THIS I JUST CAN'T SAY ENOUGH
HOW WE SHOULD NOT BE
PERPETUATING POOR USE OF FULL SO
SECURITY NEVER THAT BART STATE
HAS NO BUSINESS DOING THAT
ANYMORE?
AND.
ONCE YOU GET DOWN THAT PATH YOU
END UP WITH TECHNOLOGY THAT
WON'T CHANGE.
I REWRITING CODE THAT CAN'T BE
DONE UNLESS YOU SPEND MILLIONS
OF DOLLARS DOING IT.
AND WE END UP PATCHWAY IN A
PROBLEM SO I HOPE I STRONGLY
HOPE THAT YOU WILL CONSIDER.
I'M NOT USING FULL SO SECURITY
NUMBERS
I THINK IT MIGHT HELP ET DE HAVE
A LITTLE BIT MORE. PRESSURE ON
THEM TO GET IT RIGHT.
A AND ALTERNATIVELY PERHAPS ALSO
AT THE SAME TIME YOU MAY NOT GET
THE SAME QUALITY OF DATA BUT
ALLOW PEOPLE TO DECIDE WHEN
THEY'RE SO SECURING MEMBERS ARE
GIVEN WHAT THEY'RE USED FOR EVEN
IF IT'S. NOT DISAGGREGATED.
BUT WITH GREAT RESPECT FOR THE
CHARITABLE HAVE A CHANCE TO WORK
ON AGAIN IN HIGHER EDUCATION.
I'VE I THINK YOU FOR YOUR
ANSWERS.
ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS
FROM THE COMMITTEE MEMBERS.
SEEING NONE. OF ALONGSIDE SO WAS
I. I TO HAVE A CONCERN OVER THE
SECURITY OF THIS I'M I'M GONNA
VOTE YET I QUIT TODAY WITH THE
HOPES THAT YOU CAN ADDRESS THE
ISSUES THAT WE.
SOME MEMBER BREAK BAKER BROUGHT
UP.
BECAUSE I AM ABLE PROPONENT OF
CT AND I THINK THE DATA IS
REALLY IMPORTANT THAT WE
UNDERSTAND FOR OF JOBS GOING
FORWARD WHAT WE NEED IN THE
COMMUNICATIVE. AND.
SO I WOULD HOPE THAT YOU WOULD
HAVE THIS CONSIDERATION.
AS IT MOVES ON TO THE COMMITTEE
HOPEFULLY.
I THINK YOU ARE ANY OTHER
QUESTIONS.

THESE LICENSE PLATES ARE ONLY
ISSUED IN A SEQUENTIAL SERIES IN
CALIFORNIA UNLIKE MANY STATES.
RESTRICTING THIS BUT SPECIAL
RECOGNITION OF SACRIFICE IN

TRANSIT AGENCIES HAVE OVER A
HUNDRED AND THIRTY PERCENT
INCREASE IN FUNDING. THAT
BECAUSE THAT CAN BE USED TO

EXTENT OF WHAT IS OUT THERE.
AND THAT'S WHAT THIS STUDY

AB.
THIRTY FIFTEEN.
PLEASE PERSONA READING.
GOOD AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS UP THANK YOU FOR THE
OPPORTUNITY TO PRESENT THE B.
THIRTY FIFTEEN RETRO ADDRESS
CALIFORNIA'S NEED. FOR A
SUCCESSFUL TRANSITION OR FREIGHT
TRANSPORTATION NETWORK AND
SUPPLY CHAINS FROM OUR CURRENT
DIESEL BASED TECHNOLOGY. TOWARDS
ZERO AND NEAR ZERO EMISSIONS
FUTURE. THIS WILL BE A COMPLEX
AND EXPENSIVE PROCESS AND NOT
WITHOUT SOME CONTROVERSY. BUT IN
ORDER TO ADDRESS THE STATE'S
GREENHOUSE GAS REDUCTION IN
CLEAN AIR GOALS THERE'S NO DOUBT
THAT A TRANSITION NEEDS TO
OCCUR.
BUT BECAUSE THIS IS COMPLEX AND
EXPENSIVE IT IS IMPERATIVE TO BE
PLANNED. THAT MAY BE IMPLEMENTED
WITH OUR INDUSTRY AND LABOR
PARTNERS AT THE TABLE. AND THAT
WHEN WE INVEST STATE DOLLARS
INTO NEW INFRASTRUCTURE AND NEW
EQUIPMENT THAT WE DO IT WITH A
WELL THOUGHT OUT IN STRATEGIC
PLAN. OTHERWISE YOU RUN THE RISK
OF SETTLING THOSE WHO
ULTIMATELY.
PAID FOR INVESTMENT IN OUR POLL
AND IMPORTS OF CARGO THAT IT
SHIPPED. WITH SIGNIFICANT COSTS
AND JEOPARDIZE THE ECONOMIC
VIABILITY OF OUR PARTS AND I
THINK.
IN PARTICULAR NOW WITH THE
COMPETITION OF PORTS.
IN OTHER STATES OF THIS BECOMES
REALLY BAD CRITICALLY IMPORTANT.
I AS YOU ARE AWARE CALIFORNIA'S
PORTS ARE A CRITICAL COMPONENT
COMPONENT OF OUR STATE'S ECONOMY
AND AS A REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
DISTRICT WITH HEAVY INTEREST IN
AGRICULTURAL EXPORTS. I'VE SEEN
FIRST HAND INVESTMENT IN OUR
PORT GATEWAYS CAN SUPPORT AND
GROW JOBS ALL ACROSS ALL OF OUR
DISTRICTS.
FOR EXAMPLE THE VALUE OF
CALIFORNIA AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS
THAT WERE EXPORTED TO THE PORT
OF OAKLAND IN TWO THOUSAND
SEVENTEEN TOTAL OVER SIX POINT
SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS. BUT AT
THE SAME TIME WE WE KNOW ALL TOO
WELL THAT INCREASED TRADE
BARRIERS CAN CAUSE REAL HARM.
THIS CAN OCCUR AT THE
INTERNATIONAL LEVEL LIKE WE HAVE
SEEN WITH TERRACE BEING ACTIVELY
DEBATED IN BEIJING AND
WASHINGTON DCSCENERY RIGHT NOW
WHICH THREATENED TO HEAVILY
IMPACT OUR STATE'S FARMERS. AND
AG COMMUNITIES INCREASES IN THE
COST OF TRADE CAN ALSO OCCUR AT
THE LOCAL LEVEL. AB THIRTY
FIFTEEN WILL HELP TO AVOID THIS.
WE CAN ALL ANTICIPATE THAT WILL
WE WILL HAVE MORE COSTLY PART
INFRASTRUCTURE ANY EQUIPMENT
COSTS BUT WITH GOOD PLANNING AND
LONG TERM INVESTMENTS WE CAN
MAKE SURE THAT OUR TRANSITION TO
ZERO EMISSIONS. WILL HAVE
POSITIVE IMPACTS ON JOBS AND
LIVES IN BOTH RURAL CALIFORNIA
AND IN. COMMUNITIES NEIGHBORING
THE PORTS
WITH ME TODAY IS MY CHECK UP OF
THE PACIFIC MERCHANT SHIPPING
ASSOCIATION SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF
THE BILL.
PLEASE PROCEED THANK YOU GOOD
AFTERNOON MISTER CHAIRMAN
MEMBERS MIGHT TAKE WITH THE MSA.
AND SUPPORT OF THE BILL ONE AND
I THINK JUST TO THE ACT OF
ASSEMBLY WOMAN'S COMMENTS.
QUICKLY WE APPRECIATE THE
OPPORTUNITY TO THE WORK WITH THE
STATE AND PARTNERSHIP ON
INFRASTRUCTURE AN ON AIR QUALITY
ISSUES. WE LIKE TO HAVE THAT.
PARTNERSHIP CONTINUE IN A
FORMAL CAPACITY WITH INCLUSION
OF THE PLANS.
AND A NO MATTER WHAT TECHNICAL
FEASIBILITY COMES TO PASS.
BUT WE DO KNOW FROM OUR
EXPERIENCES IN SOUTHERN
CALIFORNIA AND.
.
IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA THAT WE
CAN GET TO ZERO EMISSIONS.
THAT THEIR TO PASS FOR THAT.
ONE IS WHAT'S HAPPENING THEN THE
PORT OF LA AND LONG BEACH WHICH
IS INVESTMENT.
AND.
ADVANCEMENT OF TECHNOLOGY AND
AND.
NEW INFRASTRUCTURE TO SUPPORT
THE MOST MODERN EQUIPMENT WE
HAVE.
THE OTHER ONE IS THE PORT OF
OAKLAND. AND THAT'S WE HAD OUR
HARPER TERMINAL GO BANKRUPT THAT
IS THE WRONG TYPE OF ZERO
EMISSIONS TERMINAL.
THE NO WANTS TO SAY AND SO WE'D
LIKE TO SEE LONG TERM PLANNING
SO WE CAN FACILITATE THE
INVESTMENT WE NEED TO TRANSITION
PROPERLY.
THANK YOU.
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME HE
REPRESENT PLEASE. AIDAN MEDI UP
YOU KNOW SUFFER LA. A WEIRD
SPORT OF THE BILL.
WE ARE EXPERIMENTING RIGHT NOW
WITH THE ELECTRIC INFRASTRUCTURE
FOR OUR YARD EQUIPMENT THAT A

THIS MEASURE ALLOWS TRANSIT
AGENCIES
IN OUR STATE TO RETAIN THE
ABILITY TO UTILIZE IN CENTER
FUNDING.
AS THE INTRODUCE MORE ZERO
EMISSION TRANSIT BUSES.
THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD IS
DEVELOPING REGULATIONS TO
ACHIEVE A ZERO EMISSION TRANSIT
SYSTEM
STATE WIDE. BY THE YEAR TWENTY
FORTY.
THIS IS A LOT OF ALL GOAL IT HAS
WIDESPREAD WIDESPREAD SUPPORT.
AND IT'LL HELP CALIFORNIA MEET
ITS AGGRESSIVE CLIMATE TARGETS.
BUT WITH JUST
SWIFT TRANSITION.
WELCOME ADDITIONAL COST
PRESSURES ON TRANSIT AGENCIES
WHO ALREADY OPERATE ON SMALL
MARGINS.
PRESSURES TO INCREASE BUS FARES.
THE PRICE FOR A ZERO EMISSION
BUS CAN BE THREE HUNDRED FIFTEEN
THOUSAND DOLLARS.
APPROXIMATELY MORE EXPENSIVE
THEN ITS TRADITIONAL
COUNTERPART.
AS OF A FEW MONTHS AGO TRANSIT
AGENCIES IN OUR STATE HAD ONE
HUNDRED AND SEVEN ZERO EMISSION
BUSES IN OPERATION. WITH AN
ADDITIONAL THREE HUNDRED FORTY
ON ORDER.
ALL OF THESE PURCHASES ALL OF
THESE WERE PURCHASED WITH THE
HELP OF INCENTIVE FUNDING I
REPEAT ALL OF THEM WERE
PURCHASED WITH THE HELP OF SOME
TYPE OF INCENTIVE FOR.
ON TOP OF THE UP FRONT COST
PRESSURES TO PURCHASE THESE MORE
EXPENSIVE BUSES TRANSIT AGENCIES
MUST ALSO FUNDING CREATE A
COMPLETELY NEW INFRASTRUCTURE
SYSTEM. TO MEET THE NEEDS OF A
ZERO EMISSION FLEA.
IT'S VITAL THAT FUNDING REMAIN
AVAILABLE IN ORDER FOR TRANSIT

PLEASE INTRODUCE YOURSELF AND.
WE REPRESENT PLEASE.
SURE THING MISTER CHAIR. AND
MEMBERS MICHAEL HIMSELF
CALIFORNIA TRANSIT ASSOCIATION.
ASSEMBLY MEMBER DAILY NOTED THE
CALIFORNIA RESOURCES BOARD IS IN
THE PROCESS OF PROMULGATING A
REGULATION.
THAT WOULD TRANSITION
CALIFORNIAS TRANSIT FLEET TO ONE
HUNDRED PERCENT ZERO EMISSION BY
TWENTY FORTY.
AT THE HEART OF THIS REGULATION
IS A PURCHASE MANDATE.
THAT WOULD REQUIRE EVERY
TRANSIT AGENCY THE STATE.
BEGINNING SOMETIME AFTER TWENTY
TWENTY TO PURCHASE ZERO EMISSION
BUSES AS PART OF THEIR NECKS
PROCUREMENTS.
WHEN THIS PURCHASE MANDATE GOES
INTO A FACT.
ARB WILL DISALLOW PUBLIC
TRANSACTIONS HE'S A MEAT ONLY
THE BASELINE PURCHASE
REQUIREMENTS FROM ACCESSING
INCENTIVE FUNDING ALREADY
APPROPRIATED BY THE LEGISLATURE.
TO SUPPORT ZERO MISSION BUS
DEPLOYMENT.
YOUR BE ARGUES THAT THIS
APPROACH IS NECESSARY AND
BECAUSE OF ELECTED BOARD POLICY
THAT PROHIBITS THE USE OF
INCENTIVE FUNDING. TO BE
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE AYE AND
APPROPRIATE NOT TO ENCOURAGE
ZERO MISSION BUS DEPLOYMENT
ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT IS
REQUIRED BY THE REGULATIONS.
SOME SUPPORTERS OF YOUR BEES
APPROACH OF TAKEN THAT.
CONSISTENT BUT MORE STRIDENT
POSITION.
ARGUING THAT IN MEETING
REGULATORY OBLIGATIONS THE
POLLUTER SHOULD PAY.
I IN DOING SO THE SUPPORTERS OF
TAKING A PRINCIPLE CALMLY APPLY
TO OTHER REGULATED ENTITIES.
THAT POLLUTE AS A CREE PROFIT
AND APPLIED IT TO A RESOURCE
CONSTRAINED PUBLIC TRANSIT AND
SEE.
THAT ALREADY REDUCE EMISSIONS
BY TAKING CARS OFF THE ROAD.
I KNOW MATTER JUST.
THE JUSTIFICATION ARE MEMBERS
OF WRONGLY AGREEING THAT
LIMITING ACCESS TO ENSIGN
FUNDING FOR ZERO MISSION BUS
DEPLOYMENT IS COUNTERPRODUCTIVE.
I WITHOUT ACCESS JONES AND
FUNDING THAT IS IF PUBLIC
TRANSIT AGENCIES HAVE TO BEAR
THE FULL COST OF THIS TRANSITION
TO ZERO EMISSION BUSES. THEY
HAVE TO PULL RESOURCES AWAY FROM
OTHER VALUABLE USES SUCH A STATE
OF GOOD REPAIR. DAILY SERVICE
AYE AND OTHERWISE UNDERMINE THE
VIABILITY PUBLIC TRANSIT.
WE ASK FOR GOD OF THANK YOU FOR
THE DISSERTATION. ON NEXT
WITNESS PLEASE THANK YOU MISTER
CHAIRMAN AND MEMBERS MORE ATOP
ON BEHALF OF THE ORANGE COUNTY
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY. AND.
WE ARE IN VERY MUCH IN SUPPORT
OF THIS BILL.
AS OUTLINED AIR BE IS
PROMULGATING REGULATIONS AND WE
ARE WE'RE APPRECIATIVE OF THESE
THESE RAGS THERE ARE. OTHER BOLD
THEIR INNOVATIVE.
THEY ARE AGGRESSIVE.
BUT THEY COME WITH A REAL A
REAL PRICE TAG AND BOB FOR
ORANGE COUNTY TRANSPORTATION
AUTHORITY WHAT WE KNOW AS WE'VE.
WE'VE GONE BACK AND WE'VE
CRUNCHED THE NUMBERS AND WE.
CONTINUE TO WORK WITH A A RP
BUT BUT THE NUMBERS ARE.
PARTICULARLY STARK FOR US.
WE HAVE IDENTIFIED A ACOSTA FOUR
HUNDRED AND FORTY TWO MILLION
DOLLARS TO COMPLY WITH THIS WITH
THIS REGULATION AND JUST TO PUT
IT IN CONTEXT.
ARE ARE OPERATIONS AND
MAINTENANCE BUDGET FOR. THE
ENTIRE AYE COUNTIES A TRANSIT
SYSTEM IS TWO HUNDRED AND EIGHTY
MILLION DOLLARS TO THIS WOULD
WIPE OUT TWO YEARS OF FUNDING
THAT WE. ARE THAT WE USE TO I
TRIED IMPORTANT TRANSIT
SERVICES.
TO TOURISTS ARE CITIZENS.
I'M WE THINK THIS IS ONE STEP IN
THE RIGHT DIRECTION WHAT IT WILL
DO IS IT'LL HELP.
PROVIDE INNOVATION AND.
HOPEFULLY GET THAT COST LOWER
AS WE ARE ONTINUE TO INNOVATE
AND PROVIDE MORE COST EFFECTIVE
MEANS TO MEET THIS REGULATION.
I'M NOT STILL GOING TO BE VERY
VERY COSTLY FOR AGENCIES.
WE.
WE WE HAVE ESTIMATED THAT WE
THINK OF REGULATION LIKE THIS
COULD COST.
IN TERMS OF TRANSIT SERVICE A
TWENTY TWO PERCENT REDUCTION IN
SERVICE.
ARE WE.
SERVE PRIMARILY A LOW INCOME
RESIDENTS OF ORANGE COUNTY O.
ALMOST TWO THIRDS OF OUR.
OF OUR BUS RIDERS ARE FROM
HOUSEHOLDS THAT EARN LESS THAN
THIRTY THOUSAND DOLLARS SEWER A
PROPOSAL.
THAT COULD CUT SERVICE COULD
HAVE A VERY REAL IMPACT SO WE
VERY MUCH APPRECIATE THIS
THOUGHTFUL BILL THAT WILL GET US
ON THE ROAD TO MAKING. UP A
BALANCED.
AND APPROPRIATE.
REGULATORY SCHEME.
AT ARB THINK YOU VERY MUCH

AND.
I THINK THE THE AUTHOR INVOLVED
RESPECT IN OUR A SUPPORTERS AND
MADE THE CASE.

REQUIRE A MASSIVE AMOUNT OF
FUNDING.
AND WE'RE CONCERNED THAT THIS IS
GONNA SQUEEZE OUT THE EXISTING.
PROJECTS AND.

NEAR ZERO BYTES.
IT'S THE ULTIMATE ULTIMATELY
COME DOWN TO AIR BE MAKING THE
DECISIONS WITH THEIR FUNDING
PLAN AND THERE COULD BE PICKING
WINNERS AND LOSERS AND WITH THIS
MASSIVE AMOUNT OF FUNDING NEEDED
IT'S GONNA SQUEEZE OUT.
THOSE THAT ARE IT NEEDED TO

HOW BUSINESS CERTAINTY IS VERY
IMPORTANT IN A STEADY STREAM OF
FUNDS THAT ARE KNOWN AND?
?

THANK YOU.
VINCENT WHERE MUCH OF WHAT THE
WHITENING GRIP ON THAT THE PYD
MOTORS A CALIFORNIA BASED
MANUFACTURER BETTER LOGIC TRUCKS
AND BUSES IN SUPPORT.
MOVE THE BILL.
ANY OTHER MEMBERS THE PUBLIC
THAT WOULD LIKE TO TALK IN
SUPPORT OF THE BILL.
ANY MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC THAT
WOULD LIKE TO TESTIFY IN
OPPOSITION OF THE BILL.
MANY MAKE ROOM PLEASE FOR ONE
THIRD OF ONE WITNESS PLACE
PLEASE STATE YOUR NAME WHO
REPRESENT PLEASE.
KATHY CATHERINE PHILLIPS WITH
SIERRA CLUB CALIFORNIA.
WE WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR FOR
HIS INTEREST IN ZERO EMISSION
BUSES WE HAVE BEEN SUPPORTING
ZERO EMISSION BUSES FOR A LONG
TIME. I WANT TO CORRECT A FEW
THINGS THAT SHOWED UP IN THE AN
OUNCE THIS AND ALSO IN THE
TESTIMONY WE JUST HEARD. THERE
IS NO DRAFT REGULATION OUT THERE
RIGHT NOW. WHAT HAS BEEN
CIRCULATED IS ON VARIOUS
OCCASIONS ARE?
WHITE PAPERS.
AND THERE'S THE MOST RECENT
WHITE PAPER INDICATES ó
THERE'S A THREE PAGER THAT CAME
OUT A COUPLE WEEKS AGO.
INDICATES THAT THE.
AGENCY HAS BEEN LISTENING TO
THE TRANSIT AGENCIES AS THEY
HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THE
ENVIRONMENTALISTS.
AND ARE PREPARED TO.
CHANGE SOME OF THE ELEMENTS.
OF THEIR PROPOSAL SO THAT.
THE THE THE START DATE OF THE
REGULATION WON'T BE AS SOON AS
HAS BEEN IN THE MOST RECENT ONE.
BUT FUNDAMENTALLY WHAT'S WHAT
ARE YOU KNOW HAVE YOU EVER HAD
THAT EXPERIENCE WHERE. YOU THINK
SOMETHING'S GOING TO HAPPEN AND
THEN FIFTEEN YEARS LATER YOUR
WORST FEAR COMES TRUE.
THAT'S WHAT I'M HEARING TODAY
BECAUSE ONE OF THE THINGS WE
WORRIED ABOUT WHEN WE STARTED
GROUP. ENVIRONMENTALISTS STARTED
SUPPORTING INCENTIVES FOR EARLY.
ADOPTION OF TECHNOLOGIES AND
PUBLIC MONEY GOING INTO EARLY
ADOPTION OF NEW TECHNOLOGIES
THIS WAS THAT WE WOULD
INCREASINGLY SEE THE REGULATED
INDUSTRY COMING IN AND SAYING.
YOU SHOULDN'T ADOPT ANY
REGULATION UNLESS YOU HAVE
PUBLIC MONEY TO PUT UP FOR
COMPLIANCE WITH THAT REGULATION.
AND THAT'S WHAT WE SEE HAPPENING
HERE THE KINDS OF TESTIMONY WE
HEARD HERE TODAY IS VERY SIMILAR
TO WHAT YOU HEAR. INCREASINGLY
OVER AT THE REGULATORY AT THE
AIR RESOURCES BOARD IS
REGULATIONS ARE COMING UP.
SO OF FIRST OF ALL THIS IS A
PREMATURE BILL THE REGULATION
STILL HASN'T EVEN COME OUT IN
DRAFT FORM.
SECONDLY. YOU KNOW ASPECTS OF
THE BILL ARE FINE THE ONE THING
THAT WE WOULD ASK IS THAT THE.
PHRASE THAT WOULD ALLOW
COMPLIANCE THIS MONEY TO BE USED
FOR COMPLIANCE AS OPPOSED TO
EARLY.
EMISSIONS REDUCTIONS IN EARLY
COMPLIANCE.
BE STRICKEN. THANK YOU.
ANY OTHER MEMBER MEMBERS OF THE
PUBLIC THAT WOULD LIKE TO
TESTIFY IN OPPOSITION.
VOICE OUR OPINION WHO. OF HIS
BILL SING NONE.
ANY QUESTIONS OF THE COMMITTEE
OF THE AUTHOR.
I'M GONNA VOTE TO SUPPORT THE
BILL TODAY BUT I'M WANT TO TAKE
A LOOK OF MORE AT SOME OF THE.
METRICS AND THE DIFFERENCES
BETWEEN THE SMALLER AGENCIES IN
THE LARGER AGENCIES AND HOW
THEY'RE FUNDING SOURCES COME
FROM AS WELL. AND MAKE SURE THAT
THIS IS NOT OVERLY BROAD AND IN
TERMS OF TRYING TO.
TARGETING EVERYONE ONE MAYBE IT
SHOULD BE TARGETING THE AGENCIES
THAT REALLY ARE UNABLE TO TURN.
AROUND.
MAKE THESE INVESTMENTS.
THAT IS AN EXCELLENT POINT.
SOME OF IT SOMEBODY AGENCIES
HAVE LOCAL.
REVENUES OTHERS DON'T.
.
THE FAREBOX RECOVERY.
AND DYNAMIC IN EACH AGENCY IS
DIFFERENT AND.
.
I WAS A BOARD MEMBER.
AT THE ORANGE COUNTY
TRANSPORTATION AUTHORITY FOR
YEARS AND IT'S SO. THERE
PRESSURES TO RAISE THE FARE BOX.
RECOVERY BECAUSE OF THE ONGOING
NO.
EXPENSES AND RIDERSHIP IS AN
ONGOING CHALLENGE TO ME THE REAL
GOAL OF THESE TRANSIT AGENCIES
IS TO CARRY AS MANY FOLKS AS
POSSIBLE.
AND.
SO I THINK WE ALL HAVE THE SAME
GOAL HERE IS JUST HOW WE GET
THERE WHAT ARE THE METRICS WHAT
IS THE TIMING THE TIMING
QUESTION IS IMPORTANT. SO WHY
APPRECIATE QUESTIONS AND I WILL
RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR A YES VOTE.
THANK YOU MISTER DALY.
SO. WHEN YOU LOOK AT SOME OF
THE.
.
REGULATORY AGENCIES OUT THERE.
SOMETIMES QUEST TO DO GOOD.
DOES HARM.
AND.
.
I WOULD HATE HOPE IT'S NOT A
VEILED ACTION TO REDUCE VEHICLE
MILES BY DECIMATING THE ABILITY
FOR TRANSIT SYSTEMS TO OPERATE.
AND.
ADDS CAPACITY RATHER THAN TAKE
AWAY FROM OF THE CAPACITY I WISH
A OR B. WOULD HAVE BEEN HERE
TODAY TO BE ABLE TO TALK TO
THIS.
I GUESS IS HERE CLICK HERE
REPRESENTING A RB.
.
NO I'M SORRY SIR WE'RE ONLY
REPRESENTING SIERRA CLUB OR YOU
MENTIONED IT WAS PREMATURE BILL
LIST WELL I DO THINK IT'S A
PREMATURE BILL THAT THAT'S A
SIERRA CLUB POSITION. OKAY THANK
YOU PROOF CLARIFYING THAT.
BUT WILL THANK IS A PREEMPTIVE
BILL.
BECAUSE HALF THE TIME WHEN
WHITE PAPERS OR.
THOUGHTS COME OUT OF AN AGENCY
THEY BECOME.
NOW REGULATION WITHOUT MUCH
THOUGHT PROCESS.
SO WITH THAT I'LL BE SUPPORTING
THIS BILL AND I REALLY DO THINK.
ALLOWING ACCESS TO INCENTIVES.
.
REDUCES THE NEEDS FOR CUTTING WE
ARE CURRY.
AND WE ARE CURRY AYE BAKER.

Q..
I GOOD EVENING MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE M. HERE
TO PRESENT AB TWENTY SIX
FIFTEEN.
A BILL THAT WOULD HELP MAXIMIZE
SAFE AND CONVENIENT ACCESS FOR
BICYCLES AND PEDESTRIANS TO
CALIFORNIA PARKS. CALIFORNIA'S
HOME TO NUMEROUS STATE AND LOCAL
PARKS THAT OFFER FUND AN
ENRICHING EXPERIENCE TO THOSE
WHO MAKE USE OF THEM. ACCESS TO
THESE PARKS HAS MANY UPSIDES
INCLUDING ENCOURAGING PHYSICAL
ACTIVITY IN PROMOTING HEALTH AND
MENTAL WELLNESS.
IN SOME CASES BEAST PICTURESQUE
PARKS ARE WITHIN SIGHT OF MANY
RESIDENTS BUT JUST OUT OF REACH.
THESE PARKS CAN HAVE ACCESS
ISSUES ARE PHYSICAL BARRIERS
NEAR THEM.
SUCH AS ROADWAYS ARE UNSAFE
TERRAIN THAT MAKE IT HAZARDOUS
FOR PEOPLE TO ENSURE THEM ON
FOOT OR RIDING BIKES.
THE CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF
TRANSPORTATION OR CALTRANS IS
CHARGED WITH COORDINATING IN
DEVELOPING TRANSPORTATION
PLANNING AND POLICY HOWEVER.
ISSUES RELATING TO SAVE PARK
ACCESS ARE NOT OFTEN CONSIDER
WHEN PLANNING. AND POLICY MAKING
FOR TRANSPORTATION.
PROJECTS.
TRUST ISSUE PROJECTS.
AB TWENTY SIX FIFTEEN WILL
MANDATE THAT CALTRANS
COLLABORATE WITH THE DEPARTMENT
OF PARKS AND RECREATION AND
OTHER PUBLIC ENTITIES. TO
FACILITATE GREATER COMMUNICATION
AND COORDINATION THAT EMPHASIZES
THESE CONCERNS OF SAFE
PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE ACCESS TO
ALL CALIFORNIANS.
THIS COOPERATION WILL HELP CLEAR
THE WAY FOR MORE OF OUR
RESIDENTS TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF
THE MAGNIFICENT. PARKS WITHIN
OUR STATE AND CONSEQUENTLY
ENCOURAGING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY
PROMOTING HEALTH AND MENTAL
ILLNESS.
NO ONE SHOULD BE DENIED ACCESS
TO SAFE FUN PARKS AND THOSE
EXPERIENCES. OUR PARKS OUR
PRECIOUS RESOURCES FOR OUR STATE
AND OUR RESIDENTS. AND WE MUST
DO ALL WE CAN TO MAKE SURE
EVERYONE CAN ENJOY THEM SUCH AS
THIS BEAUTIFUL.
BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPH THAT
WE HAVE IN THIS A COMMITTEE
ROOM.
AND WITH ME HERE TO TESTIFY ARE
A FELLOW ADDED ON THOUGH OF
LATINO OUTDOORS AND ONE A COMING
DOWN ALL OF THE OUT OF WORK OUT
OF ON CALIFORNIA.
PLEASE TEACH NAMELY REPRESENT
PLEASE.
GOOD AFTERNOON.
GOOD AFTERNOON WAS CHAIRMAN OF
THE COMMITTEE MY NAME IS OFTEN
EITHER ALONE THOUGH I'M HERE ON
BEHALF OF THE YOU KNOW WHAT
DOORS TODAY IN SUPPORT. OF AB.
TWO SIX ONE FIVE. BUT YOU KNOW
DOORS IS UNIQUE AND LET YOU KNOW
LET ORGANIZATION.
WORKING TO CREATE A NATIONAL
COMMUNITY OF LEADERS IN
CONSERVATION AND OUTDOOR
EDUCATION.
IN THE STATE AND AND IN THE
COUNTRY. AS PART OF THIS WORK
WERE FOCUSED ON EXPANDING
AMPLIFYING LOOKING EXPERIENCE IN
THE OUTDOORS.
BY PROVIDING LEADERSHIP
MENTORSHIP AND PROFESSIONAL
OPPORTUNITIES.
TO LEADERS THROUGHOUT.
THROUGHOUT THE STATE AND DOING
THIS WORK IN PARKS AND OTHER
PUBLIC LAND SPEED.
SUFFER IF YOU WANT DOORS
OUTINGS INCLUDE TAKING STUDENTS
AND FAMILIES ON.
HIKING AND BACKPACKING ó
WHICH INCLUDE.
COMPONENTS OF INTERPRETATION
AND AFTER EDUCATION.
TYPICALLY JUST INVOLVE
CORDONING VEHICULAR
TRANSPORTATION YOU KNOW GETTING
FOLKS INTO A CARAVAN AND GOING
OUT TO THESE DIFFERENT PLACES.
BUT OFTENTIMES WE DO ENCOURAGE.
IF POSSIBLE AT THE LOCAL LEVEL.
BEING ABLE TO ENCOURAGE THE
PARTICIPANTS TO TO WALK OR BIKE
TO THE. THE PARKING QUESTION.
.
SO GOING THROUGH EMPHASIZING
THIS YOU KNOW WE'RE TRYING TO
ENCOURAGE.
NOT ONLY A FIRST TIME
EXPERIENCE FOR A LOT OF THE IN
THE PARTICIPANTS BUT.
ENCOURAGING A REPEAT ACTION.
GIVEN THE PROXIMITY TO A LOT OF
THESE RESIDENCES.
BUT UNFORTUNATELY THERE MANY
EXAMPLES WHERE EXISTING
TRANSPORTATION INFRASTRUCTURE
MAKES THIS REALLY DIFFICULT.
.
SO MAKING ACCESS TO STATE
REGIONAL LOCAL PARKS AND PUBLIC
LANDS ON FOOT OR BY BICYCLE.
IS A CORPORATE ALREADY FOR
NOTHING WHAT DOORS.
ESPECIALLY FOR COMMUNITY
RESIDENTS THAT LIVE.
SOMETIMES WITHIN A HUNDRED FEET
OF A PARK BUTTON THERE JUST ON
THE WRONG SIDE OF A HIGHWAY OR
FREEWAY.
AND FOR THE REASONS I OUTLINED
BY SOME REPEAL LATINO DOORS THAT
