THIS BILL REQUIRES ABOUT WHO'S
BEEN SUSPECTED ARE SAFE ENOUGH
TO COAT I'D LIKE TO SEE IN
CALIFORNIA ALL BALCONIES BE
INSPECTED.
NOT JUST APARTMENT BUILDINGS
WITH THREE OR MORE MULTI
DWELLINGS ALTHOUGH THIS IS OF BE
A GOOD START.
IT BORE DON'T EXPECT.
SOME BALCONIES.
I WANT TO THINK IF THIS WAS YOUR
KIT.
HOW MANY MORE BALCONIES ARE
READY TO FALL DOWN IN
CALIFORNIA?
IF YOU LOOK AT EVEN BERKELEY
AFTER THE ACCIDENT [inaudible]
THEY INSPECTED TWO THOUSAND ONE
HUNDRED SEVENTY SIX BALCONIES.
AND WE HAD APPROXIMATELY FOUR
HUNDRED TWO ISSUES.
THAT'S ABOUT 18% THIS DATA
SHOULD CONCERN IF YOU TAKE AND
PUT ON THE MAP FOR THE HOLE IN
THE CALIFORNIA.
AND PINK BERKELEY THE TITLE CITY
COMPARED TO A LOT OF OTHER BIG
CITIES.
I THINK IN MANY THOSE BALCONIES
ARE GOING DOWN [inaudible]
IF.
IF YOU THINK WHAT IS THE PRICE
OF A LIFE.
I'M SPEAKING TODAY IN HONOR OF
THESE SIX STUDENTS HERE BUDGET
THESE ARE PHOTOGRAPHS.
MY DAUGHTER IS IN THE MIDDLE.
IF THEY DON'T HAVE A VOICE
ANYMORE LIBYA BURKE FOREVER
TWENTY ONE ON CULLIGAN FOREVER

TO WHAT WE'VE BEEN TRUE.
BECAUSE THINK ABOUT IT OF
SOMEONE HAVE DONE THE RIGHT
THING.
AND THERE IS NO SECRET
SETTLEMENTS BACK THEN EVEN.
WHIPPED SEGUE AND INSURANCE
PAYING OUT MILLIONS.
THESE KIDS COULD BE ALIVE IF
INSPECTIONS WERE DONE AS WELL
IMPROPER EXPECTATIONS NOT THAT
SOMEBODY'S LOOKING UP AT THE
CEILING HERE INSIDE OUT. TO
VEGAS BUT IT'S FINE ARE JUMPING
ON THE BALCONY.
THEY COULD BE ALIVE TODAY IN
THIS DAY AND AGE.
CALIFORNIA IS THE FIFTH LARGEST
ECONOMY IN THE WORLD

WE BUILT.
CANTILEVER BALCONIES FIFTY FEET
ABOVE GROUND LEVEL.
WE MAKE THEM OUT OF WHAT.
WE WRAP THEM AND STUCCO WITH NO
TIES BACK TO THE BUILDING.
THAT NEVER HAVE TO BE INSPECTED.

ABOUT EVERY TIME YOU STEP OUT ON

GLORIA.
GLORIA YEARLY MON WHAT WE HAVE A
QUORUM.
THANK YOU LET ME ASK IF THERE
ARE OTHER SUPPORTERS OF THIS
BILL.
HIS OPPOSITION TO THE BILL
.
WELL MISTER CHAIRMAN MEMBERS
SOME RUN KINGSTON I
REPRESENTATIVE FOR APARTMENT
ASSOCIATIONS THERE REGIONAL LOS
ANGELES AREA ORANGE COUNTY.
AND THE BAY AREA AND NORTH
VALLEY.
A BALCONY AND STAIRWAY COLLAPSES
SHOULD HAVE NEVER HAPPENED IT'S
TRAGIC.
IT IT MAKES EACH ONE OF US
[inaudible]
CHECK.
YEAH ELLE IT TO FIND OUT WHAT IS
REALLY IMPORTANT.
AT OUR LIVES AND THAT IS OUR
LIVES IT IS OUR FAMILY IS --
ARE CLOSE.
FRIENDS AND LAW AND WE SHOULD
CHERISH LIFE IN GENERAL THIS
BILL IS ABOUT.
FIXING A VERY WRONG PROBLEMS TO
BERKELEY TRAGEDY AS THE CASE
REVEALS --
THAT THERE WAS A LOT WRONG WITH
IT.
NOW -- AND
THIS BILL IS.
SEEKING TO CORRECT THIS.
THE BILL WOULD CREATE THE FIRST
STATEWIDE --
MANDATE TO INSPECT.
OF BAD FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD
OF TIME ALL DECKS BALCONIES
PORCHES IT CETERA OVERTIME.
WE HAVE BEEN MEETING WITH THE
SENATOR THE SENATOR STAFF.
CHURNING AMENDMENTS --
THAT WE FIND --
THAT OR IMPORTANT AND FINALLY
YESTERDAY WE MET WITH SENATOR
STAFF -- AND
ONE OF THE PROPONENTS --
WHO ARE WITH WHOM I'VE KNOWN FOR
A LONG TIME?
I TO SEE IF WE COULD COME
TOGETHER AND HERE ARE THE
ELEMENTS IN WE BELIEVE WERE
TOGETHER.
AND BASED ON THAT --
WE WILL RESPECTFULLY --
WE HAVE AND WE SUBMITTED
AMENDMENTS WITHIN THE HOUR AFTER
OUR MEETING AND I WANT TO
HIGHLIGHT THE MOST IMPORTANT
AMENDMENTS --
THAT TO WE FIND AS RENTAL
PROPERTY OWNERS AND MANAGERS. TO
DO AND BY THE WAY AND
INCIDENTALLY --
I'M NOT ONE OF MY CLIENTS I HAVE
NEVER HAD THIS TYPE OF TRAGIC
EXPERIENCE HAPPEN TO THEM AND
NOR WOULD THEY EVER EMBRACE --
AN INCIDENT LIKE THIS SO THEY
ARE RESPONSIBLE OWNERS.
THE FIRST AMENDMENT --
THAT WE HAVE DISCUSSED IS
ACCESS.
THE BILL PROPOSES TO SAY WE HAVE
TO DO INSPECTIONS AS OUTLINED --
BUT THE LAW DOESN'T PERMIT US TO
ENTER THE PROPERTY TO DO THAT
INSPECTION.
AND US SO WE HAVE CRAFTED --
AN AMENDMENT TO EXISTING LAW.
SAYING THAT --
GIVEN ALL THE RESTRAINTS AND
NOTICE REQUIREMENTS TO EXISTING
TENETS THAT WE CAN ENTER THE
PROPERTY TO INSPECT TO COMPLY
WITH THE BILL.
THE SECOND ISSUE IS TO PERMIT.
THE OWNER TO SELECT THE
INSPECTO.
AND TO TO CONTRACT TO IDENTIFY
THEIR OWN CONSTRUCTION OR THEIR
CONTRACTOR TO MAKE REPAIRS IF IT
IS NECESSARY. THIRTY IS TO
PERMIT THE OWNER JUST LIKE ALL
OWNERS CAN DO TODAY TO MAKE THE
NECESSARY REPAIRS NOT JUST A
CONTRACT.
THEY CAN MAKE THE REPAIRS THERE
ARE SUBJECT TO THE BUILDING
CODES THEY'RE SUBJECT --
TO ALL THE BUILDING INSPECTION
REQUIREMENTS BUT THEY CAN DO IT
YOU CAN DO IT TO YOUR OWN HOUSE
YOU CAN DO IT YOUR OWN PROPERTY
YOU HAVE TO COMPLY WITH THE LAW.
WHICH YOU AS OF OWNER OF THE
PROPERTY CAN --
BE ABLE TO DO THAT --
AND THEN.
DISCLOSURE WHEN SOMEONE IS
BUYING MY PROPERTY THAT HAS A
QUALIFIED DE PORCH BALCONY.
AT CETERA.
WE BELIEVE THAT THE OWNER SHOULD
NOT ONLY DISCLOSE THE CONTENTS
OF THE INSPECTION BUT WHAT THEY
DID. TO DO THE NECESSARY REPAIRS
AND REPLACEMENTS OF THOSE --
WHAT'S REFERRED TO IN THIS BILL
EXTERIOR --
ELEVATED ELEMENTS.
THAT SHOULD BE UNNECESSARY
DISCLOSURE TO ALLY ITSELF THESE
THINGS THAT WE HAVE ASKED FOR WE
BELIEVE WE'VE COME. TO AGREEMENT
WITH THE SENATOR AND MANY OF THE
SUPPORTERS.
AND WITHOUT SHOULD THAT BE DONE
WE WITHDRAW OUR OPPOSITION.
LET ME ASK IF THERE'S ANY OTHER
OPPOSITION.
OKAY SEEN NON --
LET ME SAY A FEW WORDS FOR SO I
WANT TO THANK THE AUTHOR FOR
BRINGING THIS IMPORTANT BILL I
KNOW THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT YOU
HAVE BEEN.
PASSIONATE ABOUT FOR EXTRA.
STREAM THE GOOD REASON --
SINCE THE TRAGEDY AND APPRECIATE
YOUR WORK ON THIS --
AND I ALSO KNOW THAT THIS BILL
WAS AMENDED IN.
WOMEN FROM OUR COMMITTEE.
WITH THAT I AM PREPARED TO
SUPPORT IT WITHOUT ADDITIONAL
AMENDMENTS --
I AM A I A I HAVE TO ASK BECAUSE
THIS BILL HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH
THE PROCESS FROM ENTIRE YEAR.
WHY WE ARE HERE AT THIS LATE
DATE ABOUT THESE ISSUES THAT
YOU'RE RAISING?
AND I WOULD ALSO NOTE THAT THE
MAIN STATE APARTMENT ASSOCIATION
THEY ARE NOT IN OPPOSITION TO
THIS BILL --
AND AND AND AND AGAIN IT'S A BIT
SURPRISING SO LIKE THE AUTHOR IF
YOU'D LIKE TO ADDRESS THAT AND
AND EARLY AND AND WHAT YOUR
PREFERENCES WITH REGARDS WE
SWEEPING AND CONVERSATION OVER
THESE ISSUES FOR A WHILE THEY
HAVE BEEN --
THERE THERE THERE IT WE WERE
TRYING TO FIND SHOULDN'T FIND
SOME RELEVANCE TO THEM IN TERMS
OF TRYING TO DEAL WITH THEM WE
DIDN'T FEEL THAT THEY WERE AS
SIGNIFICANT AS OUTLINED BUT WE
DID THERE.
FAIRLY MINOR IN TERMS OF
LANGUAGE ADJUSTMENTS IN AND
AMENDMENTS THAT WE MAY BE ABLE
TO TO WORK OUT AS THE BILL MOVES
SO WHICH IS NOT SOMETHING
SIGNIFICANT AND I THINK WE'RE
GOING TO COME TO AN AGREEMENT
WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM.
OKAY WELL AGAIN I'M PREPARED TO
SUPPORT THIS BILL MOVING FORWARD
WITH THE MEMBERS THAT WE
DISCUSSED AND AND AND OBVIOUSLY
--
WE'LL SEE WHAT HAPPENS TO FUTURE
DISCUSSIONS ON THIS IS THERE ANY
OTHER DISCUSSION ON THIS ISSUE

AND FIRST OF ALL --
SO S. BEFORE ANYONE HAS A
DISTRICT BILL WHICH WILL PROVIDE
THE CITY SACRAMENTO THE MUCH
NEEDED OPPORTUNITY PROVIDE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AT THE SITE
OF THE FORMER SAN JUAN MOTEL IN
MOBILE HOME SITE OF STOCKTON
BOULEVARD SO I DON'T KNOW OF
ANYONE LEFT THE GRID AND TOURED
AROUND SACRAMENTO THERE'S THIS.
OF THE VACANT LOTS AND OF STOCK
BLOGS A MAIN THOROUGHFARE AND IN
IN THE CITY BUT AND THIS BILL
WOULD ALLOW THE COUNTY OF
SACRAMENTO'S REDEVELOPMENT.
EIGHT REDEVELOPMENT AGENCY
SUCCESSOR AGENCY DISPOSE OF THE
PROPERTY TO THE CITY OF
SACRAMENTO'S HOUSING SUCCESSOR
ENTITY FOR BELOW MARKET VALUE.
OF THIS PARCELS ONE OF EIGHT
PARCELS ARE PURCHASED AND
CLEARED FOR REDEVELOPMENT BACK
IN TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT AGAIN
SITUATE ALONG THE TRANSPORTATION
QUARTER STOCKTON BOULEVARD IN A
VERY UNDERSERVED AREA OF OUR
COMMUNITY.
THE PARCELS PRESENT AN IDEAL
OPPORTUNITY FOR DEVELOPMENT
AFFORDABLE HOUSING OR DISTRICT
HOWEVER WHEN REDEVELOPMENT
ELIMINATE TWENTY TWELVE THE
SEVEN SMALLER DECENT PARCELS ARE
TRANSFERRED TO THE CITY OF
SACRAMENTO'S HOUSING AUTHORITIES
SUCCESSOR AGENCY.
BUT THE ST ONE PARCEL WAS
TRANSFERRED TO THE COUNTY
SACRAMENTO'S WE DEVELOP A
SUCCESSOR AGENCY AND SO WHAT
HAPPENS IS THIS.
BASICALLY PIECE A LAND IS SPLIT
UP AND THEREFORE VERY DIFFICULT
THAT AND WHAT WE'RE UNABLE TO
DEVELOP BECAUSE OF THAT.
AS BEFORE ANYONE WILL ALLOW THE
SAN JUAN PROBABLY BE TRANSFERRED
FROM THE COUNTY TO THE CITY FOR
BELOW MARKET VALUE IN OR TO
FACILITATE THE DEVELOPMENT OF
WHAT YOU DID FOR HOUSING.
EXISTING LAW REQUIRES THAT THESE
PROPERTIES FOR SUPPOSED OF
EXPEDITIOUSLY AND TO MAXIMIZE
VALUE HOWEVER EACH MONTH MORE
SACRAMENTO RESIDENTS ARE FORCED
INTO THE STREETS DUE TO RISING
HOUSING COSTS.
AS BEFORE ANYONE WILL ALLOW US
TO ADDRESS THIS TECHNICALITY IS
STANDING WAY OF AFFORDABLE
HOUSING DEVELOPMENT AT THE SITE
EXPECT WE ASK FOR AN AYE VOTE I
HAVE WITH ME SIT SECOND CITY
COUNCIL MEMBER ERIC ERA
REPRESENTS THE AREA THANK.
COUNCILMEMBER DATA WELCOME.
THANK YOU MISTER CHAIR AND
MEMBERS --
AREA GET A COUNCIL MEMBER FOR
THE CITY OF SACRAMENTO DISTRICT
SIX IN SUPPORT OF SB FORTY ONE I
THINK YOU SENATOR AND MEMBERS OF
THE SISTINE COMMITTEE I ASK FOR
YOUR SUPPORT FOR SB.
FORTY ONE WHICH WOULD HELP THE
CITY AND COUNTY OF SACRAMENTO TO
UTILIZE IT BLIGHTED VACANT
PROPERTY THAT'S BEEN RIDDLED
WITH ILLEGAL DUMPING ON STOCKTON
BOULEVARD.
THIS IS THE OLD SITE OF THE OLD
SAN JUAN MOTEL LIKE MANY CITIES
SACRAMENTO'S FACING A CHALLENGE
AVAILABLE AFFORDABLE HOUSING
STOCK.
THIS TECHNICAL BILL WOULD ALLOW
THE CITY TO ACQUIRE THE BLIGHTED
PROPERTY FROM THE REDEVELOPMENT
SUCCESSOR AGENCY FOR THE
PURPOSES OF CREATING AFFORDABLE
HOUSING.
THE CITY AND COUNTY THROUGH OUR
AGENCY OWNS THE ADJACENT SMALL
POX PARCELS BUT UNFORTUNATELY
THE LARGEST PARCEL AND RIGHT IN
THE MIDDLE OF ALL OF THESE
PROPERTIES IS THE OLD SAN JUAN
MOTEL SITE.
AND MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO MOVE
FORWARD THE REQUIREMENTS IN THE
CURRENT LAW AFTER THE
DISSOLUTION OF REDEVELOPMENT
HAVE IMPEDED THE ABILITY TO JOIN
THESE PARCELS TOGETHER AND
EXECUTE AN AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PROJECT.
THE OLD SAN JUAN MOTEL WAS
ESSENTIALLY THE ONLY AFFORDABLE
HOUSING FOR MANY FOLKS IN SO THE
PROPERTY SHOULD BE TREATED AS A
HOUSING SUCCESSOR PROPERTY.
YOUR VOTE HERE TODAY WOULD HELP
BETTER UTILIZE THIS PROPERTY FOR
MUCH NEEDED AFFORDABLE HOUSING
AND CLEAN THE VACANT BLIGHTED
PROPERTY THAT HAS SAT VACANT FOR
YEARS I RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR
YOUR AYE VOTE.

WELL AUTOMATIC GARAGE DOOR

BACKUP BATTERIES MANY HOMEOWNERS
DO NOT REALIZE THE IMPORTANCE OF

HARD TO OPEN.
THANKS FOR THE HELP OF A
NEIGHBOR LIVES IN THE DOOR MY

THERE WERE NUMEROUS STORIES
ABOUT PEOPLE WHO DIED THE
GARAGES OR HAD TO RELY ON
EMERGENCY PERSONNEL OR NEIGHBORS

BURNED ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS WITH
LITTLE WARNING.
ESPECIALLY FOR SENIORS PERSONS

CHAIRMAN CHIU HOME.

LEADERSHIP ON THIS ISSUE
[inaudible]
ASSEMBLYMAN WOULD.
MY REPRESENTATIVE ON THIS
COMMITTEE.
THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING THAT
YOU HAVE DONE TO HELP US RECOVER
FROM THIS TRAGIC EVENT.
AND TO HELP US BETTER PREPARE
OURSELVES FOR WHATEVER MAY COME
NEXT THANK YOU.
MEMBERS OF THE COMMITTEE.
GOOD MORNING AND THANK YOU FOR
ALLOWING ME TO SPEAK TODAY IN
SUPPORT OF SENATOR DODD SENATE
BILL.
NINE SIX NINE THIS LEGISLATION
SPEAKS TO MY OWN EXPERIENCE
DURING THE OCTOBER FIRES THAT
RAVAGED MUCH OF MY HOME COUNTY.
AND ASSEMBLYMAN WOULD STAY HOME
COUNTY OF CINEMA.
AND SENATOR DODD SOME COUNTY OF
NAPA.
IT IS TIMELY [inaudible]
RESPONSIVE [inaudible]
RESPONSIBLE.
AND I FOR BOOT FIRMLY BELIEVE
THAT IT CAN HELP SAVE LIVES.
AT THE TIME OF THE OCTOBER FIRES
I WAS SIXTY NINE YEARS OLD AND
LIVING IN A RETIREMENT COMMUNITY
OAKMONT.
ON THE WESTERN EDGE OF THE
CINEMA VALLEY IN CINEMA COUNTY.
I AM STILL LIVING THERE.
IT IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO LIVE
BORDERED ON ONE SIDE BY TREE
ONLY AND ADELE STATE PARK.
AND ON THE OTHER BY SUGARLOAF
RED STATE PARK IN HOOD MOUNTAIN
REGIONAL PARK.
YES IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PLACE TO
LIVE BEAUTIFUL AND AS IT TURNS
OUT.
LIKE MUCH OF THIS COUNTY DEADLY.
THOSE HOT DRY WINDS THAT WOULD
PLACE SUCH A MAJOR ROLE IN THE
OCTOBER FIRES HAVE BEEN RAGING
FOR MOST OF THE AFTERNOON AND
INTO THE NIGHT OF SUNDAY
OCTOBER.
EIGHT THE POWER WENT OFF OR WAS
SHUT OFF.
AROUND TEN THIRTY I WENT TO BED
ONLY TO BE AWAKENED BY A
NEIGHBOR ABOUT THREE HOURS LATER
AROUND ONE THIRTY IN THE MORNING
MONDAY MORNING.
I CAN'T REMEMBER --
REALLY WHAT WHAT SHE SAID AND
NEITHER CAN SHE MY ONLY TAKE
AWAY WAS FIRE [inaudible]
EVACUATE [inaudible]
NOW.
I THREW A FEW THINGS IN THE MY
GO BAG MANAGED TO GET BOTH OF MY
CATS INTO THEIR CARRIERS.
AND CALL THE NINETY YEAR OLD
NEIGHBOR IN OAKMONT WHO HAS NO
FAMILY IN THE AREA TO TELL HER
WE HAD TO GET OUT.
AND THAT I WOULD BE BY AND TEN
MINUTES TO PICK HER UP.
THEN I WENT INTO MY GARAGE TO
GET MY CAR.
OF COURSE I KNEW THE GARAGE DOOR
OPENER WOULDN'T WORK BECAUSE THE
POWER WAS OFF.
I KNEW I WOULD HAVE TO LIFT THE
GARAGE DOOR MANUALLY BUT IT I
DIDN'T EXPECT THAT TO BE A
PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAD DONE THIS
BEFORE.
ONLY THIS TIME I COULDN'T GET
THE DOOR UP MORE THAN TWO OR
THREE FEET.
I ATTEMPTED TO DO THIS SEVERAL
TIMES.
THE SAME RESULT.
AND I THINK AT THAT POINT.
I PROBABLY WENT INTO SHOCK.
I IMMEDIATELY FELT VULNERABLE
[inaudible]
AND OLD.
AND AWARE THAT I WAS UNABLE TO
DO THE ONE THING THAT WAS
ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY FOR ME TO
DO TO BE ABLE TO EVACUATE
SAFELY.
I WENT OUTSIDE AND SAW FOR THE
FIRST TIME IN FULL PANORAMIC
VIEW.
THE HORROR THAT WAS UNFOLDING
AROUND ME.
THE SKY WAS GLOWING ORANGE IN
EVERY DIRECTION.
THE FLAMES AT A DISTANCE YES.
STILL NOT THE COVER YOU COLOR
YOU WANT YOUR NIGHT SKY TO BE.
THE WIND WAS BENDING TREASON
SHOOTING DEBRIS IN EVERY
DIRECTION AND THE AIR WAS JUST
THICK CURTAIN OF SMOKE.
BUT THE AREAS THING OF ALL WAS
THAT THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE IN
THE STREET NOT ONE LIVING
CREATURE.
NOT EVEN THE NEIGHBOR WHO HAD
ALERTED ME.
I THOUGHT THAT I'D TAKEN TOO
LONG TO GET READY. TWO LONG WITH
THE GARAGE DOOR AND THAT
EVERYONE ELSE HAD GONE.
THAT I WAS THE ONLY ONE LEFT.
I STOOD IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
STREET WITH MY CAR TRAPPED
USELESSLY IN THE GARAGE BEHIND
ME.
I KNEW I NEEDED MY CAR FOR
YOUTHS GOING TO GET OUT I WALKED
WITH A CANE FOR TWENTY YEARS AND
I KNEW I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO
OUTRUN A FIRE.
AND I WAS SCARED.
IT WAS MY GOOD FORTUNE THAT
THERE WAS ONE LONE CAR COMING
DOWN MY STREET.
A COUPLE WAS FLEEING THE FIRE
THAT HAD JUST DESTROYED THEIR
HOME IN CAN WOULD A LITTLE
HAMLET THAT BORDERS SO MONTH.
THEY STOPPED AND THE MAN OFFERED
TO SEE IF HE COULD LIFT THE
GARAGE DOOR.
WHICH HE DID BUT WITH SOME
DIFFICULTY.
I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AWAY PICK UP
MY NINETY YEAR OLD NEIGHBOR AND
KEEP BOTH OF US IN MY TWO CATS
SAY FOR THE NEXT NINE DAYS OF
OUR EVACUATION.
SO I DID OKAY.
MY TRAVELING COMPANION ON AYE
WERE AMONG THE LUCKY ONES.
OUR HOMES WERE STILL STANDING
WHEN WE RETURNED.
BUT THERE WERE MANY WHO WERE NOT
SO FORTUNATE.
MANY LOST THEIR HOMES AND IN FAR
TOO MANY CASES LOST THEIR LIVES.
I WAS HORRIFIED TO LEARN THAT AT
LEAST FIVE OF THOSE FATALITIES
WERE PEOPLE WHOSE BODIES WERE
FOUND IN THEIR BURNED OUT CARS.
IN THEIR BURNED OUT GARAGES.
OR OTHERWISE POSITION SO THAT
AUTHORITIES CONCLUDED THAT NOT
BEING ABLE TO GET THEIR GARAGE
DOORS OPEN WAS A CONTRIBUTING
FACTOR IN THEIR DEATHS.
AT THIS POINT I THINK.
PRETTY MUCH EVERYONE IS AWARE OF
THE FREAKY SPEED AND FEROCITY
WITH WHICH THESE FIRES SPREAD.
AND THAT THERE WILL MULTIPLE
FIRES RAGING SIMULTANEOUSLY
THROUGH THE AREA.
MANY PEOPLE IN THE PATHS OF THE
MORE FAST MOVING FIRES LITERALLY
HAD FLAMES LICKING AT THEIR
BACKS AS THEY FLED.
HAD I LIVED.
IN ANOTHER PART OF THE COUNTY.
IN THE PATH OF ONE OF THE MORE
FAST MOVING CARS FIRES.
AND DID HE DID EXACTLY WHAT I
DID THAT MORNING.
I VERY WELL MIGHT NOT BE HERE
TODAY.
THAT CONTINUES TO BE SOBERING
AND FRANKLY.
IT HAUNTS ME.
AS SOON AS I RETURN HOME
FOLLOWING OUR EVACUATION I HAD A
NEW GARAGE DOOR OPENER WITH THE
BATTERY BACKUP INSTALLED.
BEFORE THE FIRE RIGHT I NEVER
EVEN KNEW THIS EXIST THEY
EXISTED.
I ALSO HAD A TECHNICIAN CHECK
THE MECHANICS AND OF THE SYSTEM
IN THE DOOR ITSELF.
IT TURNS OUT THERE WAS SOMETHING
ON THE DOOR THAT WAS STICKING
THAT THAT MADE IT DIFFICULT TO
LIFT UP.
AND I PUT MYSELF ON AN ANNUAL
MAINTENANCE PROGRAM TO MAKE SURE
THE BATTERY IS ALWAYS
SUFFICIENTLY CHARGED AND THAT
THE SYSTEM IS ALWAYS IN GOOD
WORKING ORDER.
SO I'M SET.
BUT ONE OF THE MOST DISTURBING
ASPECTS OF THIS FULLER DEAL CAME
AFTER THE FIRES.
WHEN AS WE CAN FELT COMPELLED TO
DO?
WE SHARED OUR FIERY SPIRE
STORIES WITH ONE ANOTHER.
I TALKED A LITERALLY DOZENS OF
PEOPLE MOST BUT NOT ALL OLDER
WOMEN LIVING ALONE WHO WHEN
ASKED HOW THEY DID DURING THE
FIRE REPRISE REPLIED GREAT.
I GOT OUT SAFELY.
WELL I I COULDN'T GET MY GARAGE
DOOR OPEN BUT I GOT A NEIGHBOR
OR A SON OR MY NEPHEW OR IN MY
CASE.
A STRANGER TO HELP ME.
YES WE GOT OUT SUCCESSFULLY BID
IN MY HEAD I WAS SCREAMING NO.
NO THAT'S NOT ENOUGH.
WE'VE GOT TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS
OURSELVES WE CAN'T ALWAYS RELY
ON THE KINDNESS OR OF THE
AVAILABILITY OF OTHERS OR EVEN
HAVING THE TIME TO SEEK HEALTH
SALE ELSEWHERE.
MA'AM IF I COULD ASK IF YOU
COULD WRAP IT UP THOUGH YES
THANK YOU SP NINE SIXTY NINE IS
A RESPONSE A VERY REASONABLE
RESPONSE TO ONE OF THE MANY
LESSONS LEARNED FROM THESE
FIRES.
WELL I UNDERSTAND THERE ARE NO
GUARANTEES THIS BILL MITIGATES
ONE OF THE MOST COMMON OBSTACLES
THAT MANY OF US BASED.
IT WILL GIVE PEOPLE LIVING IN
OUR STATE MORE OF A CHANCE TO
BETTER SURVIVE THE NEXT NATURAL
DISASTERS THAT ARE CERTAIN TO
COME.

I DIDN'T GET INVOLVED FOR
INSTALLING HIGH BATTERIES I
THINK UP --
HUMAN LIFE IS A MORE IMPORTANT.
I HAVE ALSO MY PERSONAL
EXPERIENCE.
I WONDER WHAT THE AMENDMENT CAN
BE TAKEN UP RATHER THAN AND OF
THE PLO.
THE RECENTLY PURCHASED.
A NEW HOUSE AND A TO SEPARATE
TWO CAR GARAGES.
I DIDN'T PAY MUCH ATTENTION AND
THE SUDDEN YOU REALIZE THAT --
ONE OF THE ONE SIDE THE LEFT
INSIDE THE GARAGE.
AS NO BACK DOOR.
NOAH CONNECTION TO THE ROOM.
ONCE YOU ARE TRAPPED THE YOU ARE
TRAPPED.
SO THIS BATTERY BACKUP BATTERY
STEPHENS THAT WOULD HELP.
EVEN THEN WHEN SOMETHING WAS
WRONG.
ANYTHING CAN CAN GO FURTHER.
SO I WANT TO WIN THE THIS SO
KARAJ THE WAR [inaudible]
BEARDED CAN --
A MAN. TO REQUIRE.
A EIGHT OR TO THE BATTLE LA TO
THE HOUSE SO THAT THERE WOULD BE
EMERGENCY EXIT THE WHEN AND IF
--
THAT PROVIDES IT'LL OPEN A SOME
RECENT IN THE PANIC SITUATION.
MAY NOT OPERATE IN THE TWO HEAVY
AND ALSO DISABLED AND WE YOU
KNOW.
PEOPLE.
I ASSUME THAT WAS A QUESTION
YEAH SORRY DOT IF YOU WANT I
DON'T KNOW HOW THAT WOULD WORK
IF IT WERE PRETTY FAR DOWN THE
LINE AT THIS POINT TIME.
I'LL TELL YOU IF YOU COULD HAVE
YOUR STAFF WE WE'VE GOT --
SOME IDEAS FOR NEXT TIME ON
GATES IN THOSE TYPE OF THINGS IN
RURAL AREAS AND MAYBE THAT'S
SOMETHING THAT WE COULD WORK
TOGETHER ON YA THIS IS A PUBLIC
SAFETY ISSUE.
RELATED TO GARAGE DOOR.
SO WELL I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT
WAS POSSIBLE FOR A BILL GO TO
BUILD THAT WITHOUT ANY.
NOT EXIT DOOR SO A DISS UP
CANNOT RELATED TO EVEN THOUGH
YOU ARE SO YEAH I WATER WHICH UP
TO YOU AND SPEAK ABOUT IT.
DE AGAIN MY UNDERSTAND IS THIS
BILL AGAINST HIS FOCUSED ON THE
GARAGE DOOR OPENERS THEMSELVES
NOT OTHER ASPECTS OF THE HOUSE
WHICH OKAY JUST WANNA MAKE THAT
CLEAR.
DOCTOR WOULD.
YES LET'S ONCE A THANK YOU TO
THE AUTHOR AND THANK YOU CHERYL
FOR BRINGING COMING FORTH YOUR
STORY I THINK THERE'S ONLY FOUR
FIVE US IN THE ROOM WHO REALLY
UNDERSTAND THE GRAVITY OF THE
SITUATION HAVING.
HAVING LIVED THROUGH THIS --
CERTAINLY NOT THE WAY YOU DID
THOUGH QUITE FRANKLY CHERYL AND
I'M REALLY PLEASED TO SEE THAT
YOUR YOUR WELL.
AND WE'RE DOING SOMETHING TO
MAKE SURE THAT THIS DOESN'T
HAPPEN TO OTHER PEOPLE IN THE
FUTURE --
AND I WASN'T I MYSELF WAS NOT
AWARE OF THAT THAT THERE WERE
BATTERY BACKUPS I MEAN I I CAN
TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES A SPRING
BROKE ON MY GARAGE DOOR HAVING
TO LIFT THAT THING UP.
AND REALIZES HEAVY YOU KNOW
WHETHER IS WOODEN OR METAL OF
THESE THINGS ARE REALLY REALLY
HAPPY AND SO. ONE OF THOSE
UNFORESEEN THINGS THAT WOULDN'T
WE DID NOT EXPECT OUT THERE AND
SO I I I'M I'M VERY PLEASED TO
SUPPORT THIS BILL.
I DID WANT TO ASK THOUGH AN
ADJUSTMENT MADE SEN AND WE HAVE
THERE'S NO AUDIBLE ALARM WITH
THE SMOKE ALARM.
TRUST ME THAT SUCKER GOES OFF
YOU CAN'T YOU CAN'T TURN OFF
WITHOUT CHANGING THE BATTERY DO
THESE BATTERY BACKUPS.
HAVE AN AUDIBLE ALARM TO COMPEL
THE OWNER TO CHANGE IT ORDER WE
RELY HAVE TO RELY ON PEOPLE TO
ACTUALLY --
BE -- TO TO
HAVE MAINTENANCE TO COME OUT AND
DO THAT BECAUSE IT I THINK THAT
WOULD.
I KNOW HUMAN NATURE IS THAT YOU
FORGET YOU IF YOU'RE NOT ON A
REGULAR SCHEDULE. TWO THREE FOUR
YEARS GO BY THE BATTERY GOES
DEAD AND THAT DOESN'T HELP YOU
SO IS THERE.
IS OUR TECHNOLOGY IN THE SCRATCH
OR PRISON HAS AN AUDIBLE ALARM.
NOSEDIVE ASSEMBLY MEMBER THAT'S
A GREAT QUESTION THAT HAS NOT
BEEN ANNOUNCED AS OF YET AND I
WILL.
GO TO WORK ON THAT FIND THAT OUT
BECAUSE I THINK YOU'RE SPOT ON A
LOT OF PEOPLE THEIR SMOKE
ALARMS.
DON'T CHANGE THE BATTERIES
UNLESS THAT.
I WOULD DO IT UNLESS THE AUDIBLE
ALARM FORCES ME TO DO IT SO I
THINK THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING
THE PERHAPS --
WE CAN LOOK AT IT IN A CLEAN UP
BILLS WELL SO I APPRECIATE THAT
SUGGESTION.

OF LEGISLATION FOR THE COMMITTEE
FOR HEARING THIS.
THAT SENATOR DODD STATED --
WE HAD A LOT OF LESSONS LEARNED
IN THE RECENT DISASTERS BOTH IN
HIS DISTRICT IN MANY OTHER
DISTRICTS --
WHERE I A TEST US CONSUMERS WERE
NOT AND THE NEEDS THAT NEEDED TO
BE MATT OF THOSE CONSUMERS WERE
NOT NECESSARILY ANTICIPATED
PRIOR TO THE DISASTERS? ONE OF
THE FUNDAMENTAL PROMISES OF THE
ISS PROGRAM IS THAT IT'S BETTER
FOR IHS ASK CONSUMERS TO BE ABLE
TO STAY IN A HOME ITS SITUATION
RATHER THAN BEING
INSTITUTIONALIZED OVERLY COSTLY
SETTING.
SO ENSURING THAT I JUST AS
CONSUMERS ARE ALSO PRIORITIZED
NOT ANYWAY JUMPING THE LINE IN
FRONT OF LOW INCOME AND MODERATE
INCOME INDIVIDUALS BUT RATHER
BEING JOINTLY PRIORITIZED FOR
PRE DEVELOPMENT FUNDS WILL
BETTER ENSURE.
THAT I JUST AS CONSUMERS GET TO
MAINTAIN ON STAY IN THEIR HOMES
OR IN HOMES POST NATURAL
DISASTER.
THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER
PROVISIONS IN THE BELL WHICH
ENSURE THAT THE NEEDS OF
CONSUMERS ARE MAD AS WELL AS

SERIES OF HEARINGS ON ITS
FINANCING PLAN PROVIDING THE
DIST THE PUBLIC WITH A FORMAL
OPPORTUNITY TO PROTEST EVEN
FORCE A DISTRICT WIDE VOTE ON
THAT PLAN IF THERE ARE
SIGNIFICANT OBJECTIONS --
THIS FRAMEWORK MERE IS A PROCESS
IN EXISTING STATUTE THAT GOVERNS
COMMUNITY REVITALIZATION AND
INVESTMENT AUTHORITIES CREATES.
I NEVER TURN FOR PROVIDING A
POTENTIALLY EASIER PATH FOR
FINANCING.
MORE PREDICTABLE PASSER
FINANCING AS WELL THE BILL
REQUIRES THAT PARTICIPATING
DISTRICTS DEVOTE AT LEAST 40% OF
TAX INCREMENT FINDS THAT THEY
COLLECTED BUILDING AFFORDABLE
HOUSING IN CLOSE PROXIMITY. TO A
MAJOR TRANSIT STOP.
THE BILL ALSO FOCUS ON ENHANCING
TRANSIT SYSTEMS AND SERVICE
DIRECT INVESTMENT IN NEW TRANSIT
STATIONS WILL AID.
THE ACCELERATION OF IT OR
EXTENSION OF APPROVED PROJECTS
WHILE INVESTMENTS IN EXISTING
TRANSIT STATIONS WILL
FACILITATE.
IMPORTANT STATION UPGRADES --

DAHLE.
ARE FROM ONE OF MY COLLEAGUES --
THAT THAT --
WOULD IN SOME RESPECTS OF TAKING
AWAY LOCAL DECISION MAKING IN --
IN SERVICE OF OF GETTING MORE
HOUSING ONLINE ARE THIS BILL
GETS MORE HOUSING ONLINE
ADDRESSES SOME OF OUR TENDERING
DEVELOPMENT.
NEEDS BUT IT'S ENTIRELY --
RESPECTFUL OF LOCAL CONTROL AND
ULTIMATELY THIS IS I DID THE
LOCAL.
COUNSEL TO LOCAL AGENCIES A
LOCAL COUNTY THAT MAKES THE
DECISIONS --
WITH A VOTE OF THEIR COUNCIL
WITH A VOTE OF THEIR BOARD OF
SUPERVISORS --
AS TO WHETHER THEY WANT TO GIVE
MANAGE OF THIS --
OF THIS FINANCING OPTION SO WITH

TRANSIT SYSTEM IN LOS ANGELES
COUNTY.
HOW ABOUT WE ARE QUITE COGNIZANT
AS WE WATCH THE PLAN IN THE
DEVELOPMENT?
OF OPPORTUNITIES IN LOS ANGELES
COUNTY THAT --
WITHOUT A STRONG HOUSING PROGRAM
WELL WE WOULD BE UNLIKELY TO
TAKE FULL ADVANTAGE.
OF THIS NEW INFRASTRUCTURE
OPPORTUNITY.
IN ADDITION OUR REGION INDEED
THE STATE IS EXPERIENCING A VERY
SERIOUS OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
CRISIS.
WELL A GOOD ARM.
SOURCE OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING
MONEY IN THE PAST HAS BEEN TAX
INCREMENT FINANCING FROM
REDEVELOPMENT.
THAT'S NOT HOW BEEN REPLACED BY
ANY ALTERNATIVE.
SO -- AS THE
LEGISLATURE DELIBERATED ON
VARIOUS APPROACHES TAX INCREMENT
FINANCING WE BELIEVE.
THAT WAS VERY IMPORTANT TO
ENSURE THAT THERE IS AN
OPPORTUNITY FOR MAJOR AFFORDABLE
HOUSING INVESTMENT.
NEAR TRANSIT IN FACT A
COMMUNITY.
NOT JUST ON STATIONERS FOR RAIL
TRANSIT.
BUT ALSO ALL ALONG MAJOR TRANSIT
BOULEVARDS A WHICH ARE VERY UM'S
SIGNIFICANT FREQUENT THROUGHOUT
OUR COMMUNITIES IN CALIFORNIA

THOUSAND FIFTEEN AND TO DATE WE
HAVEN'T HAD ANY CITIES IN THE
FORMER CREE OF THE AFFORDABLE.
THE AJ'S OF SET UP IN.
TWO THOUSAND NIFTY ONE WHICH
HASN'T BEEN USED AND THEN THE F.
I. D. TOOLS HAVE ONLY BEEN USED
BY HAND FELICITY'S MY HOPE IS
THAT --
MAYBE THE FIFTH TIME IS A CHARM
BUT CLEARLY WE'VE GOT I THINK A
BROADER CONVERSATION THAT WE
NEED TO HAVE AROUND
INFRASTRUCTURE FINANCING AND
WHAT WE CAN DO TO REALLY MAKE IT
WORK AND SEE THAT.
THE UPTAKE --
THAT WE CERTAINLY SAW WITH
REDEVELOPMENT BUT THAT BEING
SAID I THINK THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT WE OUGHT TO CONSIDER AS
WELL AND AND WISHES ALL LUCK AND
WISH YOU LUCK IN AND BE ABLE TO
MOVE THIS FORWARD AND AND MY
GUESS IS IN THE COMING YEARS
WILL HAVE.
MUCH MORE SUBSTANTIAL
CONVERSATIONS WHAT WE COULD DO
--
WITH THESE TOOLS SO WITH THAT
ANY OTHER COMMENTS DR CHOI.
A SENATOR ALLEN AYE UP.
HER HERE ARE YOUR JUSTIFICATION
SO FOUR OF THEM NEED FOR
PUNISHMENT TOUR --
FOR NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURE --
FOR LOW INCOME HOUSING HOWEVER A
ANY ATTACKS OUT PUBLICATIONS OUT
THAT THE PAPER WOULD BE I BURDEN
DONE NEXT TO FORTY FIVE YEARS
SO.
ISN'T IT --
WERE --
REQUIREMENT --
TO ASK PROVE WHAT DISAPPROVE Y.
IT WOULD YOU LIKE TO UP BYPASS
THAT REQUIREMENT.
WELL I MEAN ULTIMATELY --
THE COUNCIL WHEN KNOW THE BOARD
OF SUPERVISORS ARE RESPONSIBLE
TO THEIR VOTERS AYE THERE IS A
VERY ROBUST --
GRIEVANCE PROCESS LIKE A PROTEST
PROCESS THAT'S THAT'S IN PLACE
OF IT -- IF
IF THERE IS A VERY SIGNIFICANT
LOCAL CONCERN ABOUT THE PASSAGE
OF SOMETHING LIKE THIS THEY CAN
ACTUALLY FORCE A DESERT Y. VOTE
ON THE PLAN.
ON THEIR THIS IS MODELED AFTER
--
AFTER THAT THE STATUE THAT THAT
GOVERNS THE THE COMMITTEE
REVITALIZATION INVESTMENT.
AUTHORITY SINCE THAT PROVIDES A
ROBUST MECHANISM FOR FOLKS WHO
ARE CONCERNED ABOUT TAXPAYERS --
YUP CONCERNS I MAY BE OUT THERE
ABOUT THE PARTICULAR NIFTY
PROGRAM THAT THE CITY PUT IN
PLACE THEY CAN THEN.
FILED THIS PROTEST AN ENFORCER I
DESERVE I'D VOTE --
BUT ULTIMATELY IT'S IT'S GONNA
THESE THESE COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE
ACCOUNTABLE TO THEIR VOTERS.
ON THAT SUBJECT TO VERY STRICT
FISCAL CONTROLS --
AND IT ADDRESSES SOME VERY
SERIOUS NEEDS THAT ARE THERE.
AND THERE IS THIS MECHANISM FOR
PROTESTS AND FORCING A VOTE SO
THE THOUGHT WAS IN AND AND YOU
KNOW IT AND YOU MAY SEE WE GOT A
THE SENATE I KNOW.
A LOT OF REPUBLICANS SHARE THE
SORTS OF CONCERNS THAT YOU HAVE
BUT I THINK ULTIMATELY THE THE
THE THE THE TAXPAYER PROTESTS --
MECHANISM THAT EXISTS UNDER CREA
IS STRONG ENOUGH SO THAT IF
THERE IS SIGNIFICANT LOCAL
CONCERN ABOUT THE MEASURE IT CAN
FORCE A VOTE AND THEN LET THE
LET THE VOTERS DECIDE.
BUT IF THERE REALLY ISN'T THEN
YOU KNOW THIS REALLY DOES ENJOY
THE SUPPORT THE COMMUNITY THEY
CAN AFFORD --
WITH THAT WITH A MECHANISM.
YEAH TO YOUR QUESTION OPERATE A
QUESTION.
ANY OTHER QUESTIONS.
SATURDAY FINAL COMMENTS NIGHT I
REALLY APPRECIATE.
YOUR YOUR WILLINGNESS AND
INTEREST IN THIS ISSUE IT IT I
THINK IT IT PROVIDES A PRO LOCAL
CONTROL --
WAY OF TRYING TO ADDRESS SOME OF
THE BIG INFRASTRUCTURAL
CHALLENGES WE HAVE AS A STATE
THAT ARE REALLY STARTING TO
BUBBLE UP AND VERY SERIOUS WAYS.
I'M VERY PROUD OF THE FACT OF
THIS ENJOY SUCH STRONG
BIPARTISAN SUPPORT.

SENATOR WHY KOWSKI FILE ITEM
ELEVEN SP.
THIRTEEN THIRTY THREE GOOD
MORNING MEMBERS IN THAT CHAIR
ENDS AS POINTED OUT IN THE STAFF
REPORT THE RECENT A PALETTE --
DECISION KENNEDY COMMISSION
VERSUS THE CITY OF HUNTINGTON
BEACH PERMITTED HUNTINGTON BEACH
WHICH IS A CHARTER CITY TO ADOPT
A SPECIFIC PLAN THE DIFFER FROM
ITS OWN HOUSING ELEMENT.
THE NEW SPECIFIC FACT PLAN
ELIMINATED SITES THAT WERE
INTENDED TO ACCOMMODATE
AFFORDABLE HOUSING.
SO THAT'S WHAT WE'RE STUCK WITH
ITS EXISTING LAW WHICH REQUIRES
ALL CITIES TO DEVELOP A GENERAL
PLAN BUT IT IS NOT REQUIRED
CHARTER CITIES.
CONSISTENT WITH THEIR GENERAL
PLAN SO THIS BILL FIXES THAT IT
CREATES A CONSISTENCY
CONSISTENCY REQUIREMENT TO APPLY
TO ALL THE STATE'S. TO APPLY ALL
THE STATE'S LOCAL PLANNING AND
CHARTER SEE.
IN WITH ME.
SUPPORT THE MEASURE IS BRIAN --
AUGUSTA FROM HOUSING ADVOCATES
INSIST SASHA HARDEN WITH THE
WESTERN CENTER ON LAW AND
POVERTY.
GOOD MORNING CARE MEMBERS I'M
SOFT HEARTED WITH THE WESTERN
CENTER ON LAW AND POVERTY MORE
PROUD TO CO SPONSOR SB.
THIRTEEN THIRTY THREE THIS BILL
WOULD CORRECT A RECENT DECISION
WHICH HELD THAT A CHARTER CITY
CAN TAKE DEVELOPMENT ZONING
DECISIONS INCONSISTENT WITH
APPROVED PLANS.
ARE TO ACCOMMODATE A FAIR SHARE
OF REGIONAL HOUSING NEED.
THE BILL WOULD ENSURE THAT ALL
CITIES PLAY BY THE SAME RULES
WITH RESPECT TO PLANNING.
WHILE PRESERVING THE ABILITY TO
TAILOR PLANTS TO LOCAL
CIRCUMSTANCES.
IT'S COURTS IN THE LEGISLATURE
HAVE ACKNOWLEDGED LOCAL ZONING
IN DEVELOPMENT HAVE CONSEQUENCES
THAT REACHED BEYOND CITY
BOUNDARIES.
LOCAL DEVELOPMENT AFFECTS
INTERRELATED REGIONAL SYSTEMS
WITH REGARD TO TRANSPORTATION
HOUSING NATURAL RESOURCES
INFRASTRUCTURE AND THE LIKE.
GIVEN OUR STATEWIDE HOUSING
SHORTAGE AND THE STATE'S
INTEREST IMPROPER REGIONAL
PLANNING WE MUST ENSURE CITIES
FOLLOW UNIFORM RULES.
THIS BILL PRESERVES THE GREAT
FLEXIBILITY THAT LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS HAVE BEEN DRAFTING
THEIR PLANS AND MERELY REQUIRES
THAT ONCE THOSE PLANS ARE
ADOPTED AND APPROVED THEY ARE
FOLLOWED.
WE CAN'T ALLOW SOME CITIES TO
PASS THEIR OBLIGATIONS ON TO
SURROUNDING COMMUNITIES AND WE
ARE SUPPORT.
ARE GOOD AFTERNOON.
IT AFTERNOON CHAIR MEMBERS BRIAN
ACOSTA ON BEHALF OF THE
CALIFORNIA RURAL LEGAL
ASSISTANCE FOUNDATION JUST.
ECHOING SOME OF THOSE COMMENTS
AT LAST YEAR IN THE HOUSING
PACKAGE THAT THIS BODY PASSED
AND THE GOVERNOR SIGNED WITH --
MADE A NUMBER OF IMPROVEMENTS.
AROUND PLANNING AND OTHER
OBLIGATIONS REGARDING AFFORDABLE
HOUSING PRODUCTION AND HOUSING
PRODUCTION IN GENERAL.
AND MANY OF THOSE.
IMPROVEMENTS WILL BE LOST IF
CHARTER CITIES ARE NOT SUBJECT
TO THE SAME RULES THAT EVERY
OTHER.
LOCAL GOVERNMENT IS SUBJECT TO
WHICH ENSURES THAT THERE IS
CONSISTENCY.
BETWEEN THE GENERAL PLAN AND
OTHER PLANNING DOCUMENTS.
ARE WITHOUT THOSE IMPROVEMENTS
SOME CITIES WILL BE ABLE TO
ESCAPE THOSE OBLIGATIONS AND I
WOULD JUST NOTE.
THAT THIS BILL HAS NO IMPACT.
ON GENERAL LAW CITIES
[inaudible]
AND THIS BILL HAS NO IMPACT ON
COUNTIES OTHER THAN TO MAKE SURE
THAT THE JURISDICTIONS THAT
SURROUND THEM OUR PLAYING BY THE
SAME RULES.
THAT THEY ARE REQUIRED. TO PLAY
BY SO FOR THOSE REASONS WE WOULD
URGE IN ABOUT.
LET ME ASK IF THERE ARE OTHER
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC IN SUPPORT
OF THIS BILL.
AND IT'S OUR OPPOSITION TO THE
BILL.
WHAT WHAT SHY ORDER ENTRY IN
HERE ON BEHALF OF THE CITY OF
SANTA MONICA AND WE'VE TAKEN A
LATE OPPOSITION POSITION AND WE
HAVE SOME CONCERNS DUE TO THE
FACT THAT?
THIS BILL INFRINGES UPON ATTIRE
CITIES AUTHORITIES AND IT'S A
SYSTEM THAT WORKS WELL FOR
CITIES LIKE SANTA MONICA.
WHO HAVE AND MATT AND GONE ABOVE
AND BEYOND THEIR ARENA
ALLOCATION SO?
THANK YOU.
WITH THAT LET'S BRING IT BACK TO
THE COMMITTEE --
CENTER APPRECIATE --
THIS BILLS REASONABLE APPROACH
--
I THINK THE CONCEPT THAT CHARTER
CITIES SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO THE
SAME ZONING.
AND THEN USE REQUIREMENTS AS
GENERAL LOSS CITIES MAKE SENSE
PARTICULARLY GIVEN THE HOUSING
CRISIS RED.
HOT I AM SUPPORT OF THIS BILL
ANY OTHER COMMENTS DR CHOI.
I WAS SENATOR ROTH BECAUSE KEY
UP AS SO FORMER MAYOR OF THE
CITY OF IRVINE.

CONSTITUTION.

TO CHARTER CITIES SELF ONE VIDEO
DESTINATION IN THE DECISION
MAKING.
NOW THIS IS SUCH SHIPPING AWAY

AT THE STATE CAPITOL WE ATTEMPT
TO SELL.
OUR WHY DON'T YOU LEAVE THAT UP
TO DR LOCAL AUTHORITY
[inaudible]

25% OF CHARTER CITIES HAVE
CONSISTENCY REQUIREMENTS SO IT'S
NOT ALL TO CHARTER CITIES THAT
ARE CONSISTENT WITH THEIR
GENERAL PLAN THEIR HOUSING
HOLLOW MAN.
IT SAID IT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS
THAT I DON'T BELIEVE BEFORE THE
KENNEDY COMMIT.
KENNEDY HAD DECISION THAT
PEOPLE.
ACTUALLY THOUGHT THAT YOU COULD
HAVE THESE INTENSE YOU COULD BE
TELLING HSE THAT I HAVEN'T
HOUSING ELEMENT PLEASE APPROVED
BY HOUSING ELEMENT THEY APPROVE
IT AND THEN COME UP AND SAY
WE'RE WE'RE GONNA MEN.
ARE SPECIFIC PLAN AND NOT BE
CONSISTENT I DON'T THINK THAT
THAT'S WHAT WE THOUGHT THAT THAT
--
A CHARTER CITIES WILL YOU DO
WITH ALL RESPECT ABOUT HAVING
THE INDEPENDENCE STILL BECOME A
CHARTER CITY THERE'S NOTHING IN
HERE THAT STOP SAID WE'RE JUST
SAYING.
IF YOU COULD TELL EACH C. D..
HOUSING GREEN THOUGHT HCV THAT
THIS IS OUR HOUSING ELEMENT IN
ITS APPROVED MAKE SURE IT'S
CONSISTENT WITH YOUR GENERAL
PLAN SPECIFIC PLAN THAT'S THAT
AT THE END OF THE DAY THAT'S ALL
IT IS WHICH WE DON'T BELIEVE
IT'S MUCH OF AN INFRINGEMENT.
GIVEN THE WAY THAT IT WAS
SPELLED OUT IN THE DECISION
[inaudible]
I GUESS.
RETAIN CONTINUE THAT OUT
ARGUMENT THEN THE DEBATE ABOUT.
THE DIFFERENT YOU KNOW OPINIONS.

OF OVER THREE THOUSAND PEOPLE.
STATE AUDITOR WE MUST TAKE
STATEWIDE APPROACH IN

YOUR EFFORTS ON THAT AND HIM
RECOMMENDED TO A COMMITTEE --
THAT WE MOVE IT FORWARD TO PASS

CHOI.
THE CENTER WHITAKER I APPRECIATE
FOR BRINGING UP BUT DECIDE SP --
SEVEN NINETY TWO TO COME UP WITH
THE STRATEGIC PLAN UP FOR
WHOLENESS.
COORDINATING INTO --
FINANCING CALLING SO I DIDN'T
EVEN REALIZE HAS SUCH AN AGENCY
--
EXISTED DOT YOU KNOW.
IF THIS IS SO REALLY ARE I BIG
ISSUE AS WE ALL KNOW AND I I
FEEL LIKE --
THIS LEGISLATURE SAW ISSUES SOME
MORE THAN HALF [inaudible]
I DON'T.
HAVE A CORRECT THE NUMBER BUT I
FEEL LIKE UP.
EVERY TIME WE DID WITH THAT ANY
BR AS HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH
THE HOMELESS YOU KNOW.
POP POPULATION ON AND OFF
[inaudible]
YEAH.
THE THE PRICES SAID THAT THAT WE
HAVE EXPERIENCED A SO FAR WE ARE
EXPERIENCING.
I THINK THIS IS --
TRULY COORDINATED --
AND WHAT THAT HAS TO BE DONE THE
STATE WIDE IS TOUGH FOR THE
GROWING --
SITUATION --
BUT WITH THE HOME HOMELESS TO
NASA ARE IN THE STATE DOES SO
WHILE I SHOWN THE A SUPPORT THE
SO MANAGER.
AND I WONDER IF YOU HAVE --
EVEN A FORWARD THAT DEVELOPED
CERTAIN GUIDELINES OUT WHAT KIND
OF A RESPONSIBILITY.
DISCOUNT SELLERS SHOULD TO STEP
INTO.
THIS SO I THINK WHAT WE ASK SOUL
FRACTURED SOUL MANY AGENCIES.
AND THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF
GOVERNOR IS TO NOT IN CHARGE.
ALL OF DIAZ SITUATION AND THAT
THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF WHAT
AGENCIES AT THE ENDING WHICH HE
I YOU KNOW HOMELESS SITUATION.
BUT THE WHEN THERE IS A SUCH A
CONGRESO Y. THEY HAVE NOT TAKEN
ANY ACTION SO FAR.
WE HAVE GOOD LEGISLATE THE FOR
THEM TO COME UP WITH THE PLAN
AND TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT.
THIS IS A PROPHETIC WELL I AND I
AGREE GET APPROVED IN TWENTY
THIRTEEN BUT WE DID BUT WE
DIDN'T FIND IT WHAT THIS STEMS
FAR FROM ITS WHEN I LEFT THE
ASSEMBLY RAN FOR THE SENATE --
THIS HOMELESSNESS EVERYWHERE BUT
IN THE EASTERN PART OF MY
DISTRICT IS MUCH MORE
PRONOUNCED.
AND AND THE LOCALS IN THE AND
WITHOUT WHICH IS PART OF LA
COUNTY DID FEEL LIKE THEY'RE
GETTING THEIR FAIR SHARE
FUNDING.
AND SO.
WHAT'S SO WHAT THAT'S WHAT
SPAWNED THERE AT THE AUDIT WAS
LOOKING AT THE WAY LA COUNTY WAS
APPROPRIATING THOSE FUNDS
BECAUSE IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE ON
THE FACE OF IT.
THAT IT WAS BEING FAIRLY
DISTRIBUTED.
SO WHEN THE AUDITOR CAME BACK
SHE WAS SHE WAS LIKE IN A KIND
OF THEM IN A PANIC BECAUSE WHICH
CAME BACK WAS THE OTHER
SOMETHING SALIH KENNY WAS DOING
WRONG WHICH WE CAN TWEAK.
BUT MY CONCERN IS WE HAVE TENS
OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS COMING IN
AND THERE IS NO COORDINATED
EFFORT. TO MAKE SURE THAT THOSE
ARE DISTRIBUTED EFFECTIVELY
OFFICIALLY ME THAT'S WHAT WAS
GOING ON IN THE ADULT VALLEY IS
THEY WERE GETTING THEIR FAIR
SHARE OF HUD FUNDING.
BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT THEY
DIDN'T HAVE THAT TECHNICAL
EXPERTISE TO PUT THEMSELVES IN A
POSITION TO BE ABLE TO ACCESS
THOSE FEDERAL DOLLARS THAT'S ONE
OF THE ROLES.
OF THIS COUNCIL IT'S IRONIC
BECAUSE I DID NOT VOTE FOR FOR
CENTER MITCHELL'S BILL TWENTY
THIRTEEN GO THIGHS JUST ANOTHER
LAYER OF BUREAUCRACY.
TURNS OUT WE NEED IT IN ORDER TO
BE ABLE TO FULLY IMPLEMENT THIS
SO WE CAN TAKE CARE OF THOSE IN
NEED AS WELL AS GET THE BIGGEST
BANG FOR THE BUCK FOR THE
TAXPAYER SO IT'S A WIN WIN.
I WILL TAKE THAT AS MY CLOTHES
IN RESPECTFULLY ASK FOR AN AYE
VOTE.

FIVE OF COURSE IS A BILL I'D DIE
STREAMLINES HOUSING APPROVALS
AND COMMUNITIES THAT ARE FALLING
BEHIND.
AND NOT MEETING THEIR REASON A
HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT OUR
GOALS ON I'M GONNA START BY
SAYING THE COMMITTEE HAS
PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE BILL
--
AND I DO ACCEPT THOSE AMENDMENTS
I DO WANT TO NOTE SOMETHING
THOUGH --
AND I KNOW I LOOK FORWARD TO
CONTINUING TO WORK WITH THE
COMMITTEE OVER THE NEXT MONTH.
ON SOME OF THE ITEMS THAT WERE
REMOVING FROM THE BILL OFFICER
WORK THROUGH THOSE ISSUES AND
POTENTIALLY MAKE.
AMENDMENTS IN THE FUTURE.
ON ONE OF THE ITEMS I THAT IS
BEING REMOVED TODAY --
RELATING TO MODERATE INCOME
HOUSING OR HOUSING OF THE
8210020% I AM I THE COMMITTEE AS
I ASKED US SINCE NOW IT'S IS TO
REMOVE THAT AND WE WILL.
EXCEED TO THE COMMITTEE'S
REQUEST --
BUT I DO WANNA JUST HIGHLIGHT
THIS ISSUE BECAUSE IT'S AN
IMPORTANT.
ONE ON IN S. B. THIRTY FIVE AND
WE WE WE WERE NOT ABLE TO GET
MODERATE MODERATE INCOME OF
COURSE.

[inaudible]
MODERATE INCOME --
I AM I A HOUSING CATEGORY --

IT IS IRRATIONAL OP FOR THE
82120%.
RINA CATEGORY NOT TO BE INCLUDED

--
BUT WE DO ACCEPT THAT --
AMENDMENT TODAY WANT TO WORK

IT'S HOW WE KEEP --
AFFORDABLE HOUSING AFFORDABLE

REALLY BRING EVERYBODY.
ARE TO DISCUSS AND HOPEFULLY
MOVE FORWARD ADDITIONAL
PROVISIONS THAT WE GET CLARITA
ON SO I JUST WANNA SAY FOR
ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED IN THIS
PLEASE CONTACT.
MY OFFICE OR SENATOR WINTERS
OFFICE BECAUSE WE ALL SAY THE
SAME FOR COLLEAGUES IF YOU HAVE
--
QUESTIONS OR ISSUES OR CONCERNS
UP PLEASE LET US KNOW BUT ARTS
OUR HOPE THAT THERE WILL BE.
ADDITIONAL LANGUAGE THAT HAS NOT
BEEN ACCEPTED TODAY BUT THAT WE
WILL BE ABLE TO WORK ON
CLARIFIED HOPEFULLY POTENTIALLY
MOVE AND OUT LATER PART OF THIS
YEAR SO.
UP WITH THAT LET ME ASK IF THERE
ANY OTHER COMMENTS MISTER
GLORIA.
CHAIRMAN INTAKE YOU SENATOR --
FOR THE WORKING GENERAL THE THAT
MINUTES ON THIS BILL --
I THINK THE CHAIRMAN JUST GOT
SAID ONE OF THE FIRST QUESTION I
HAVE WHICH IS THE INTENT. TO
ADDRESS THESE SORT OF TRAILED
ISSUES AT LEAST FOR TODAY THAT'S
INTENDED TO THIS BILL AND
SUBSEQUENT VERSION IS THAT WE
THINK.
CORRECT AT THIS TIME WE WANTED
TO MOVE FOR THE THINGS THAT I
THINK -- WE
WE'VE BEEN ABLE TO VET GIVEN
THAT THIS BILL REALLY JUST
WANTED TO PRINT THE LAST TWO
WEEKS BUT THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES
THAT WE DO THINK.
WE'VE EITHER EIGHT CD MIGHT BE
ABLE TO HANDLE OR IF WE CAN
CLARIFY SO THAT EVERYONE
UNDERSTAND WHAT IT'S ABOUT THE
IDEASAND IF WE COME TO THAT
AGREEMENT.
I WOULD SUPPORT --
THE AUTHOR IN MOVING FOR
AMENDMENTS IN THE SUBSEQUENT
COMMITTEE BUT GIVEN THE
TIMEFRAME WE'VE GOTTA MOVE THIS
BILL NOT JUST THROUGH IT THIS
COMMITTEE BUT THROUGH LOCAL GOV
--
WE WANTED TO MOVE FOR WHAT WE
COULD CLEAN UP IN THAT SHORT
ORDER.
THAT THE AUTHOR'S INTENT IS WHAT
ARE YOUR SEVERE TWO PIECES HERE.
THE OTHER PIECES THAT ARE BEING
REMOVED TODAY WHICH ARE AT THAT
WOULD SHARON I WILL AND I KNOW
WILL COME TO AGREEMENT BECAUSE
HE'S MY ASSEMBLY MEMBER SO.
WE TEND TO HANNAH TRIED ALL I
DON'T THINK --
AND WE WILL --
WORK TO A GUY RE CRAFTING TWEAK
AND SEE WHAT IT WHAT WE CAN PUT
BACK INTO THE BILL AND AND DO
THAT DIE IN THE APPROPRIATIONS
COMMITTEE.
OUGHT I THINK WE WE WERE GOING
TO CONTINUE TO ALSO TALK ABOUT.
OTHER MODERATE INCOME HOUSING
PIECE ON THAT OBVIOUSLY IS A YOU
KNOW IT'S A LITTLE BIGGER THAN
SOME OF THE OTHER.
EYEPIECES WITH KNOWLEDGE
HAPPENED IS A QUITE IMPORTANT
AND MY HOPE WOULD BE THAT WE
COULD NOT IN THE BILL THIS YEAR
IF NOT WILL WORK ON IN THE
FUTURE.
OP IT LIKE IT'S A THAT ISSUES
NOT GOING AWAY AND I THINK --
I MEAN MOST PEOPLE WOULD AGREE
THAT IT [inaudible]
MODERATE INCOME ARE THOSE
PROJECTS SHOULD BE STREAMLINED
AYE AND AND I THINK PROBABLY IF
YOU ASK MOST MEMBERS THE
LEGISLATURE WHO VOTED INVESTED
THIRTY FIVE LAST YEAR.
WHETHER THEY THOUGHT.
ALL READING CATEGORIES WERE AND
I BET YOU MOST PEOPLE.
DID ARE SO WILL CONTINUE TO WORK
--
ON THAT IMPORTANT ISSUE OKAY
BLOOD JUST TRYING TO UNDERSTAND
WHAT I'M BUYING TODAY IN TERMS
OF YOU KNOW YOU HEARD A GREAT
DEAL OPPOSITION. TO THIS BILL IN
ITS IN ITS CURRENT OR PREVIOUS
FORM.
PREVIOUS TO A FEW MINUTES AGO --
IT'S A LEADING IS THAT IT IS A
THREE PROVISIONS THAT ARE
ADVANCING TODAY BUT IT COULD BE
THAT THIS BILL A FUTURE
ITERATION COULD HAVE A LOT MORE.
PAD BACK INTO THEIR ACTUALLY --
WHICH TOOK ITS. FOR FOREIGN
HALF.
IF YOU WANT TO EXPLAIN THEM YEAH
SO THEY'RE THEY'RE THEY'RE LAID
OUT IN THE COMMITTEE ANALYSIS
AND THERE IS ONE ADDITIONAL
WRITE A PROVISION THAT WAS A NOT
IN THE COMMITTED ALSO SELECT
THAT CENTER DESCRIBE PARA
PREVENIR MAJOR.
THERE THE THREE THAT WE'RE GONNA
REMAIN THE BILL FOR THE CAMINO
SYSTEM THE LABOR PROVISIONS I
THINK WE'RE NOT IN THE COMMITTEE
ANALYSIS.
BUT WE NOW CLARIFIED AND SO I
BELIEVE THE CHAIRMAN HAS --
DOT DOT WILL NOT REMAIN IN THE
BILL THE ON THE LABOR
CLARIFICATION.
I'M NUMBER EIGHT OR NUMBER --
NINE HERE ON THE SUMMARY.
JUST TO BE CLEAR IT SHOULD BE
AND THAT THE DESCRIPTION OF A
MANLY MAN'S.
WELL OUT COMMITTEE MEMBERS ON
PAGE --
SEVEN SO IT STATES THAT.
THE SENATOR'S REFERRING TO THE
AUTHORITIES KNOW IT RIGHT RIGHT
RIGHT YES.
YES WHICH ONE IS IT NUMBER EIGHT
NUMBER.
EIGHT SO THAT I WANTED STAIN NOT
IT'S NOT NUMBER.
NINE CORRECT MEMORY WILL STAND A
BILL AND THEN WHEN THE MODERATE
INCOME PEACE COMES OUT THERE
WITH SOME --
LANGUAGE MESSINESS THAT WILL
AUTOMATICALLY BE CLEARED OUT
BECAUSE BUT THAT'S BRING MINOR
--
BUT NUMBER EIGHT IS REALLY BE --
ADDITION OKAY --
I I GET I'M TRYING TO KEEP UP
HERE I MEAN IT'S OBVIOUS FROM
THAT COMMITTEE ANNOUNCES THAT
STOPS EVEN TRYING TO KEEP UP
WITH WHAT'S GOING ON HERE SO --
YOU KNOW AGAIN LOW SOME
HESITATION ON AND MOVING FORWARD
ON SOMETHING ABOUT ULTIMATELY
EXTREMELY TRUST SENATORS --
INSTINCTS WHEN IT COMES TO
HOUSING ISSUES I SHARE MANY OF
THEM -- AND
CERTAINLY.
HAVING SAT THROUGH A SENATE
HEARING YESTERDAY WERE DOING
STREAMLINING FOR VERY LARGE
SPORTS COMPLEXES --
I DON'T KNOW HOW ANY OF US CAN
SIT HERE NOT TO PROVIDE
SOMETHING SIMILAR FROM MODERATE
INCOME HOUSING FOR MIDDLE INCOME
CALIFORNIANS SO --
I HOPE TO CONTINUE HOPE THIS WAR
CONTINUES I'M HAPPY TO PLAY A
ROLE IN THIS IS THAT IT ITSELF
FOR APPROPRIATE AND LAVA --
BUT I APPRECIATE IN THE SENATORS
REFERENCE ABILITY TO TED NEAR
THE BILL DOWN TO THE PARTS THAT
