REMARKS THANK YOU THANK YOU
MISLI ANY COMMENT FROM OUR
LEGISLATIVE ANALYST. MISTER
CHAIR GAVE PADDOCK LEGISLATIVE
ANALYST I'M HERE WITH SEVERAL OF
MY COLLEAGUES IN NO PREPARED
COMMENTS JUST AVAILABLE OF CASE
OR ANY QUESTIONS. PUSH IT NO
COMMENTS FROM THE COMMITTEE OKAY
I'M GONNA TURN OVER TO MR FONG
AND THEN WE'RE GOING TO TAKE.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS QUESTIONS
FROM THE COMMITTEE. I THINK THIS
CHAIR I'LL JUST JUMP RIGHT INTO
THIS THE BROAD FRAMEWORK- SO I'M
LOOKING AT I BELIEVE IT IS. THE
DEPARTMENT OF THE DEPARTMENT
FINANCES MULTI YEAR FORECAST.
FOR THIS FINAL AGREEMENT. AND IT
SHOWS ACTUALLY HIGHER DEFICITS
GOING OUT THEN IN THE MAY
REVISION SO I'M LOOKING AT A- A
SEVENTEEN BILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT
IN TWENTY TWO TWENTY FOUR. IN
EIGHTEEN BILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT
WITH FORTY FIVE IS SIXTEEN
BILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT TWENTY
FIVE POINT SIX AND THEN A
FIFTEEN. BILLION DOLLAR DEFICIT
AND TWENTY SIX POINT SEVEN. SO
IT'S UNDERSTANDING THE L. A.
O.'S- ANALYSIS IN PREVIOUS-
VERSIONS OF THE FRAMEWORK- YOU
KNOW THIS. THIS REMARK HAS
STRUCTURAL DEFICITS IN FUTURE
UNDERSTANDING THOSE RESERVES
EVEN OF THE RESERVES OWN COVER
ALL OF THAT OVER TIME SO. CAN
YOU EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT THE PLAN
IS MOVING FORWARD. YES IT IS NOT
UNUSUAL TO HAVE NEGATIVE- HAVING
HAVE DEFICITS IN THE MULTI YEAR
I THINK THE ONE THING THAT WE
WOULD LOOK TO IS THAT THERE ARE
ONE TIME SPENT THERE IS ONE TIME
SPENDING. IN THE BUDGET YEAR AS
WELL AS IN THE MULTI YEAR THAT
WE WOULD OBVIOUSLY HAVE TO LOOK
AT BRINGING DOWN TO BRING THOSE
NUMBERS. UP BRING IT SO THAT WE
WOULDN'T HAVE A DEFICIT AND IN
THE BUDGET YEAR AS WE PROCEED
FORWARD. BUT I THINK. NOT
SPEAKING FOR THE L. A. O. THE
CONCERN THAT EXISTS IS THAT THIS
FRAMEWORK ASSUMES FAIRY ROSY
PROJECTIONS. MOVING FORWARD SO.
WITH THOSE WITH THOSE
PROJECTIONS WERE STILL LOOKING
AT A PERCENT SO IF THE L. L. WAS
CORRECT. AND IF THE PROJECTIONS
ARE CLOSER AT THE REVENUE
PROJECTIONS ARE CLOSER TO WHAT
THEY PROJECT AND WOULDN'T THESE
DEFICITS BE BAKER. SO I JUST A
COUPLE THINGS I THINK ONE THING
IS THE- YOU KNOW WE ARE
ANTICIPATING REVENUES TO
ACTUALLY GO BACK TO WHAT IS SORT
OF NORMAL THAT'S OUR NORMAL CLUB
AND SO WE HAVE- WE HAVE SEEN
HUGE REVENUES IN THE PAST
OBVIOUSLY WE MADE THOSE. WE MADE
A LOT OF ONE TIME INVESTMENT
WHAT YOU'RE SEEING US PULL DOWN
IN AS PART OF SOLUTIONS IN THIS
BUDGET AGAIN WE HAVE MORE ONE
TIME IN THE FUTURE TO PULL DOWN.
TO HELP BRIDGE THOSE GAPS WE
ALSO HAVE BUILT IN OUR RESERVES
OVER THE OVER THIRTY SEVEN
BILLION IN RESERVES WERE
ACTUALLY SIX HUNDRED MILLION
HIGHER. IN THIS PACKAGE THAN WE
WERE AT THE- VISION IN REGARDS
TO RESERVES OF AND WE ALSO HAVE-
LANGUAGE IN THIS AGREEMENT THAT
ALLOWS THE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE
TO PULL BACK ON SOME FUTURE ON
SOME SPENDING IN THE BUDGET YEAR
SO WE'RE TRYING TO BUILD AND
BOTH BUDGET RESILIENCY. AND
ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IN THE FUTURE
WE WILL BE ABLE TO BRING DOWN
THOSE ONE TIME COSTS AND OF
COURSE- LOOK AT. POTENTIAL OTHER
CUTS BUT AGAIN WE HAVE BUILT A
STRUCTURE WHERE WE DO HAVE
RESERVES AND WE ARE TRYING TO
MITIGATE THE DEEP CUTS THAT WE
HAD TO MAKE IN THE PAST- FOR
EXAMPLE THE GREAT RECESSION. SO
LET ME JUST ASK INSIDE I CITED
L. A. L. THEN WE JUST HAVE THE
L. A. O. RESPOND- I CERTAINLY
BELIEVE THAT THE PROJECTIONS
ARE. ARE RISKY AND- AND THESE I
THINK THE MULTI YEAR FORECASTS
ARE VERY CONCERNING SO I DON'T
KNOW IF YOU SHARE THOSE
CONCERNS- OF YOU WHEN UPDATE-
YOUR YOUR ANALYSIS BASED ON
WHAT. IS IN THIS. AGREEMENT
YEAH- MR VICE CHAIR GABE
HEADACHE- WHAT I CAN SAY ABOUT
IT I DON'T KNOW A LOT ABOUT THE
DETAILS IN THE SHIFTING OF THE
NUMBERS FROM THAT. EARLIER
VERSIONS WE SAW OF IT COMPARED
WITH. WHAT WE HAVE BEFORE US
HERE AT THIS POINT. THAT BEING
SAID- JUST TO COMMENT A LITTLE
BIT ON THE REVENUE OUTLOOK. SO
AS YOU AS YOU CORRECTLY POINTED
OUT OUR REVENUES ARE LOWER A
REVENUE ESTIMATES ARE LOWER
THAN. THAN IT MINISTRATIONS
PARTICULARLY IN THE BUDGET YEAR
I WOULD NOTE THAT IN THE
THROUGHOUT THE MULTI YEAR
ACTUALLY OUR REVENUES- RECOVER
AT A SOMEWHAT. HIGHER RATE THAN
THAN THE ADMINISTRATION'S. BUT
THEN WE ALSO HAVE HIGHER
ESTIMATES OF- BASELINE SPENDING
SO. THE OUT YOUR- BUDGET PROBLEM
IS NOTABLE IN OUR OPINION. AND
YOU KNOW WE WOULD YOU AGREE
WITH. WHAT THIS LEE SAID THAT
YOU KNOW THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT
AMOUNT OF ONE TIME SPENDING
PARTICULARLY IN THE BUDGET YEAR
AND A COUPLE OF YEARS AFTER
THAT. THAT WE KNOW THIRD THANK
WOULD BE AT FIRST PLACE TO LOOK
TO ADDRESS- BRINGING DOWN THE
EXPENDITURE LEVEL TO BRING IT
CLOSER TO WHAT WE THINK REVENUES
WILL BE IN THOSE YEARS BUT- YOU
KNOW CARS. WE WE'VE ALWAYS SAID
THERE'S A LOT OF UNCERTAINTY
AROUND THE REVENUES. SURE SO
THAT'S AN AND IT WAS WITHOUT
SAYING AND I THINK THAT'S THE
CONCERN IS THAT THERE IS
UNCERTAINTY IN AND OF RECESSION
OCCURS OR WE HAVE AN ACT THAT
CONTINUE TO SLOW DOWN. I THINK
THAT'S SOMETHING THAT WE'RE
GOING TO HAVE TO- TO REEVALUATE
I'M GOING FORWARD. THE BIG
QUESTION I GUESS THE ONE OF THE
SURPRISING THINGS IN THIS
FRAMEWORK IS THIS RESURRECTION.
OF THE INDUSTRIAL WELFARE
COMMISSION- THIS PROPOSAL. WAS
IN NEVER IN ANY. BUDGET SUB
COMMITTEE WAS NEVER ANYBODY
COMMITTEE HERE. WAS NOT EVEN
HEARD AND I IN POLICY SO MAYBE
TO THE TO THE PUBLIC FINANCE.
HOW DID THIS PROPOSAL COME INTO
BEING AND WHAT IS THE MOTIVATION
OR RUSH TO PUT THIS IN PLACE. IS
THERE ANYONE THAT CAN ANSWER
THAT QUESTION. MR FONG A
CHRISTIAN GOVERNMENT ASSEMBLY
BUDGET COMMITTEE YOU YOU ARE
AWARE THAT THE DOCTOR WILL OFFER
COMMISSION HAS BEEN PART OF THE
CODE SINCE NINETEEN THIRTEEN.
AND WAS DE FUNDED IN TWO
THOUSAND FOUR AS PART OF A
LEGISLATIVE ACTION BUT THAT
NGUYEN THAT IN THAT THE FUNDING
THERE IS NOTHING TO PROHIBIT THE
DEPARTMENT US RELATIONS FOR
RECONSTITUTING IT WITH THAT THEY
COULD TRANSFER FUNDS TO THAT
ANYTIME. SURE I'M JUST TRYING.
TO SENSUALLY WHAT YOU SEE IN THE
BUDGET WAS WE BASICALLY PUT SOME
PROVISIONAL LANGUAGE AROUND.
WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF FOR MONEY
FOR THE DISTRAUGHT FOR
COMMISSION. I GUESS WE AT THAT
GUESS THAT'S THE QUESTION AND
MAYBE THIS COMMISSION HAS NOT.
BEEN IN EXISTENCE AS UNFUNDED
FOR. DOUBLE DECADES SO HOW DID
IT GET RESURRECTED. AND YOUR
MARCH DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE SO-
AS YOU KNOW THE INDUSTRIAL
WELFARE COMMISSION WAS DEFUNDED
IN TWO THOUSAND FOUR HOWEVER THE
COMMISSION HAS EXISTED- SINCE
THAT TIME STATURE IT HAS NOT
BEEN CHANGED- AND THE- LABOR
COMMISSIONER'S OFFICE IS ABLE TO
AND ENFORCE THE- EXISTING WAGE
ORDERS- SO THIS BUDGET WOULD
PROVIDE. SOME SPECIFIED FUNDING
TO BUY THAT JUST SHOW UP FOR
COMMISSION TO ESSENTIALLY
RESTART EXAMINE SOME INDUSTRY
INDUSTRY SPECIFIC WAGE ORDERS-
THAT MEET CERTAIN CRITERIA THERE
IN THE BUDGET BILL LANGUAGE. WE
ARE YOU EXPLAIN TO ME WHAT IT IS
NO ONE HAS EXPLAINED TO ME WHY
IT'S BEING RESURRECTED BY THE
LEGISLATURE. HAS ENACTED
HUNDREDS. OF LABOR AND
EMPLOYMENT LAWS OVER THE PAST
NINETEEN YEARS AND IT HASN'T USE
OF THIS. COMMISSION SO WHY NOW.
N. N. ACTUALLY THAT IT WAS THE
LEGISLATIVE DEMOCRATS WHO DE
FUNDED THIS COMMISSION. SO WHY
IS IT BEING RESURRECTED. I AM
NOT AN BEING AND FOR THE FIRST
TIME HERE BEING HEARD. MR FONG
I'LL SAY THAT WE DID IN
SUBCOMMITTEE FOR HAVE
CONVERSATIONS ABOUT. IT DID NEED
TO DO MORE LABOR ENFORCEMENT AND
THAT BEING A PARTY- THAT WAS
DISCUSSED AND IN A VARIETY OF
WAYS AND I THINK THIS IS
CONSISTENT WITH THAT DISCUSSION.
SO THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN THIS
COMMISSION AFTER BEING DEFUNCT
FOR TWENTY YEARS IS NOW
NECESSARY. I'M JUST I UNDERSTAND
THERE'S THREE MILLION DOLLARS
FOR THIS IT CAME OUT OF NOWHERE
AIRDROPPED INTO THIS FRAMEWORK.
IT'S NOT BEEN HEARD IN ANY
COMMITTEE THAT I'M AWARE OF THE
MAYBE IT WAS HER ONE TIME AND
SOLD FOR BUT I'M JUST TRYING TO
STAND LIKE THE IMPETUS. LIKE WHY
I UNDERSTAND IT EXISTS IT HASN'T
BEEN FUNDED FOR TWENTY YEARS AND
IN THE MIDDLE OF A DEFICIT I
DON'T KNOW WHY WE'RE ACTUALLY
PUTTING MONEY INTO A DEFUNCT
COMMISSION. WE YOU WILL OF THE
DEFUNCT.
AND THEN AS ALIEN I DON'T THINK
THIS IS A SOME PASSES THE SMELL
TEST BUT I WILL- I HAVE- SERIOUS
CONCERNS ABOUT THIS PROPOSAL
ESPECIALLY WITH NOT A LOT OF
QUESTIONS AND A LOT OF INPUT
FROM MEMBERS ON BOTH SIDES OF
THE AISLE ABOUT THIS ABOUT THIS
PROPOSAL. I WILL ASK ONE SMALL
THING- IN TERMS OF- THERE'S A
PROVISION IN THE IN THIS TRAILER
BILL ABOUT E. B. D. E. B. T.
FRAUD AND THEFT I THINK IN THE
B. C. P. THE ADMINISTRATION WAS
ESTIMATING ELEVEN POINT TWO
MILLION DOLLARS- IN GENERAL. AND
GENERAL. FUND COSTS TUTOR FOR
FRIED. THERE'S THE MONEY TO TRY
TO. MOVE THESE CARDS TO BE
CHIPPED. AND THEN I THINK THERE
IS FUNDS TO REIMBURSE COUNTIES
FOR STOLEN MONEY CAN SOMEONE AND
I THINK THERE WAS A NUMBER OF
ARRESTS. FOR FOLKS THAT WERE
STEALING EBT BENEFITS I JUST GET
CAN SOMEONE GIVE ME A UPDATE IN
TERMS OF. WHAT'S HAPPENING. AND
WHY THE GENERAL FUND IS
REIMBURSING FOR THEFT IF WE CAN
PREVENT IT. TIGER WOODS
PERMANENT FINANCE- I DON'T HAVE
SPECIFIC DETAILS ON SOME OF
THOSE SCENARIOS YOU JUST LAID
OUT BUT WHAT THE PROPOSALS ARE
IN THIS BUDGET ARE RELATED TO
SOME FEDERAL FUNDS WE CAN DRAW
DOWN TO DO SOME OF THAT
REIMBURSEMENT. AND THERE'S
ACTUALLY A- BETWEEN STATUTE IN A
RECENT COURT RULING IN THE LAST
TWO YEARS REQUIRES THE GENERAL
FUND TO REIMBURSE FOR THAT FRAUD
OKAY I'M I'M JUST WANT TO POINT
OUT THAT THAT THIS IS FRAUD
ACKNOWLEDGED BY. THE
ADMINISTRATION THAT. BENEFITS
ARE BEING STOLEN. AND WE ARE
PAYING DOUBLE WE'RE PAYING THE
BENEFITS BACK AND NOW WE'RE
TRYING TO RECOUP THIS TO THE
FRAUD SO I THINK THIS IS
SOMETHING THAT WE NEED TO.
REALLY HIGHLIGHT- I'M JUMPING TO
THE HIGHER EDUCATION- TRAILER
BILL THANK YOU FOR THAT- I
BELIEVE THERE IS- FUNDING FOR
EXPANDING NURSING PROGRAMS
WITHIN THE COMMITTEE COLLEGES-
IT'S- S. SIXTY MILLION PER YEAR
STARTING IN TWENTY TWENTY FOUR
TWENTY FIVE. HI MY QUESTION IS
THAT ONGOING AND- HOW WILL THAT
FUNDING BE TARGETED IN TERMS OF
WHICH COMMUNITY COLLEGES- I CAN
CONFIRM PART OF THAT IT IS SIXTY
MILLION ONE TIME ONE TWENTY
EIGHT GENERAL FUND FOR FIVE
YEARS- STARTING IN NOT BAD YEAR
BUT THE BUDGET- BEYOND- MR
FERGUSON GET HELP WITH. CHRIS
FERGUSON WITH FINANCE SO THAT
IT'S SIXTY MILLION PER YEAR FOR
FIVE YEARS SO TOTAL THREE
HUNDRED MILLION ONE TIME TO
SUPPORT THESE PROGRAMS. I
BELIEVE IT IS PURSUANT TO A
PENDING LEGISLATION IN TERMS OF
HOW THAT THOSE FUNDS WILL BE
DEPLOYED OKAY SO IT'S SIXTY
MILLION OVER FIVE YEARS. IT'S
THREE HUNDRED MILLION OVER THE
FIVE YEARS OR SIXTY MILLION A
YEAR OKAY SAID. ONE TIME.
YELTSIN ON TIME OF THREE HUNDRED
MILLION ONE TIME BUDGET TO
LIMITED TERM BUDGET AND THEN THE
LEGISLATURE WILL DETERMINE THE
CRITERIA AND ELIGIBILITY OF THAT
FUNDING. YEAH THAT THAT'S
CORRECT IT'S SUBJECT TO- YOU
KNOW PENDING LEGISLATION THAT
WOULD- BE REVIEWED AND
CONSIDERED NEXT YEAR. WE WOULD
ADD THOUGH THAT THERE IS AN
EXISTING NURSING PROGRAM IN THE
CALIFORNIA COMMUNITY COLLEGES SO
I DON'T KNOW IF THAT LEGISLATION
WILL LOOK AT THAT EXISTING
PROGRAMMING MAYBE ENHANCEMENTS
OR TO SOMETHING ELSE- BUT
CERTAINLY IT'S- PURSUE DEPENDING
LEGISLATION. THANK YOU. IS
STAYING IN THE HIGHER EDUCATION
SPACE I BELIEVE THIS WAS AN S.
B. ONE OH THREE THERE THERE
SEEMS TO BE- AT A GENERAL FUND
SHIFT A FIVE MILLION DOLLARS OF
THE UCCS YOU CAPITAL PROJECTS.
TO THE DEBT THAT. CAN SOMEONE
EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THAT DECISION
WAS MADE. THAT CERTAINLY PUTS
THE STATE. YOU KNOW ON THE HOOK
FOR MORE DEBT SERVICE. SALUTE
THE STRUCTURE WE PUT FORWARD IS
THAT OF A- LOCAL COMMUNITY
COLLEGE DISTRICT YOU SEE IN THE
CSU- WOULD PUT FORWARD REVENUE
BONDS TO SUPPORT THE- AFFORDABLE
STUDENT HOUSING PROJECTS. WITH
THE STATE PROVIDING SUPPORT FOR
THOSE PROJECTS. UCCS YOU IN THE
COMMUNITY COLLEGES- YOU KNOW
CERTAINLY- WE RECOGNIZE THAT
THERE'S SOME RISK THERE IF THE
STATE WERE TO CHOOSE NOT UP ON
THAT IN THE FUTURE- BUT WE DO
BELIEVE THAT- THE STATE'S MULTI
YEAR HAS THESE FUNDS IN THERE
AND- THIS IS. AWAY TO ENABLE A
FREEING UP OF RESOURCES FOR
OTHER PARTICULAR OR GENERAL
PURPOSES WITHIN THE OVERALL
BUDGET CONSTRUCT. OKAY MISTER
VANO JUST AFTER THAT IS- A
PATTERN THAT WE- IT'S NOT JUST
IN HIGHER EDUCATION BUT IS ALSO
GENERAL CAPITAL OUTLAY WHERE WE
WERE PUTTING OUT- GENERAL FUND
TO PAY FOR PROJECTS. STILL
RECOGNIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF
BUILDING THOSE PROJECTS BUT ALSO
RECOGNIZING THE FACT THAT WE
DON'T HAVE THE GENERAL FUND DUE
UP FRONT PAY- SO INSTEAD MOVING
TO- BY STRUCTURE. I JUST WANNA
MAKE SURE THAT WE RECOGNIZE THAT
THERE THAT IS NEAR TERMS
POTENTIAL BUDGET SOLUTION HAS
POTENTIAL NEGATIVE RESULTS ARE
CONSEQUENCES FOR HIGHER
EDUCATION FOR OUR HIGHER
EDUCATION SYSTEM IN CALIFORNIA
SO I WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THAT
WE ACKNOWLEDGE THAT- CERTAINLY I
HAVE CONCERNS. ABOUT THAT UP.
THE I WOULD SAY BUT OF THE
AGREEMENT- WE ARE RIGHT ARGUMENT
THAT WE'RE PAYING FOR THE DEBT
SERVICE. SO WE'RE NOT SETTLING
THE HIGHER EDUCATION STUDENTS
HIGHER EDUCATION SOLUTIONS FOR
THE- SHOW EFFECTIVELY WE'RE NOT
CALLING IT DEBT SERVICE BUT
WE'RE CERTAINLY PROVIDING
RESOURCES TO SUPPORT THOSE
PROJECTS- AT THE UNIVERSITY SO
THAT THEY CAN MAINTAIN THE
AFFORDABLE RENTS. EFFECTIVELY
THE RESOURCES WE PROVIDE WILL
ENABLE THE SYSTEMS TO MAINTAIN
THOSE AFFORDABLE RENTS. THANK
YOU MISTER JIVING BAG OF COURSE
THAT DILUTES ALSO THE GENERAL
FUNDING. RISK INTO THE FUTURE TO
LOOKING AT THE MULTI YEAR IF
WE'RE GOING TO ENCOURAGE DEBT
SERVICE INTO THE FUTURE. I KNOW
OTHER MEMBERS WISEMAN MCO TAX I
JUST WANTED TO ASK JUST A HIGH
LEVEL. WHAT REIMBURSEMENT RATES-
WILL BE INCREASED WHEN WILL THEY
BE GOING TO AFFECT AND HOW LONG
WILL THIS- WHAT IT. WHAT IS THE
SPENDING PERIOD BUT.
INTRODUCTION DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE. THANK YOU AND HAVE A
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE- FOR THE
REIMBURSEMENT RATES. THERE ARE
PRIMARY CARE. UPSET OBSTETRIC
CARE AND ALSO A NON SPECIALTY
MENTAL HEALTH. WHAT'S GOING TO
AFFECT JANUARY ONE TWENTY TWENTY
FOUR. SO- SUBSEQUENT LEGISLATION
- THAT WILL BE SUBMITTED TO THE
LEGISLATURE AS PART OF
GOVERNOR'S BUDGET NEXT YEAR WILL
INCLUDE ADDITIONAL INVESTMENTS-
THAT TERM SHOULD HAS BEEN SHARED
WITH THE LEGISLATURE I'M HAPPY
TO GO INTO THAT IF YOU WOULD
LIKE- IN ADDITION TO THE-
REIMBURSEMENT RATES WE ALSO
HAVE- HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION
DOLLAR ONE TIME LOAN. TO FOR
THAT DISCUSS HOSPITAL'S PROGRAM-
FIFTY MILLION- IN TWENTY THREE
TWENTY FOUR. FOR THE ROLE AND-
THE ROLE SIZE MAKE- HOSPITAL
PROGRAM AND THEN ALSO STARTING
COUNTY OR TWENTY TWENTY FOUR-
THERE'S SEVENTY FIVE MILLION FOR
THE GRADUATE MEDICAL EDUCATION
IN IN IN TERMS OF THE GENERAL
FUND. PART OF IT HOW HOW MUCH OF
THE OF THE OF THE REVENUE WILL
BE USED FOR THE JOB FUND OVER
THE LIFE OF THE MCO TAX. SO OVER
THE PERIOD OF THE TAX. EIGHT
POINT THREE BILLION WILL BE USED
TO SUPPORT THE MEDICAL PROGRAM.
THE FUNDING STAYS WITH THE
MEDICAL PROGRAM. OKAY BUT I MEAN
IS IT DO YOU DEDICATED TO THE
MEDICARE PROGRAM WE JUST SAYING
THAT IT. AND IS THERE ANYTHING
IN THAT IT SAYS IS THE DEDICATED
MAKE UP PROGRAM THE SAVINGS IS
REFLECTED IN DHS'S BUDGET OKAY.
AND THEN IN TERMS OF. THE APP
THIS THE SERVICE IS AN AND THE
PROVIDERS CHOSEN HOW DID YOU
COME UP WITH THAT I MEAN THERE'S
CERTAINLY A LOT OF NEEDS IN THE
PROVIDER- SPACE- YOU KNOW THAT
THE OPTOMETRISTS AND OTHER IT-
PROVIDERS. I'M JUST TRYING TO
UNDERSTAND LIKE MOVING FORWARD
THERE'S BEEN THE TALK OF THE
STAKEHOLDER PROCESS AND THE
COLLECTION OF THAT DATA. HAS
THAT BEEN CHOSEN NOW TO THE
FUTURE LIKE THE PROVIDER RATE
INCREASES OUT INTO THE FUTURE
HAVE THAT HAS THAT DECISION BEEN
MADE OR IS OUT OF IT IS THEY ARE
ACTUALLY TRUE STAKEHOLDER
PROCESS MEAN FOR. THIS SO THE
INVESTMENT SUPPORTED CSS
COMPREHENSIVE- QUALITY STRATEGY
STRATEGY- OF THE FOCUSING ON.
THAT'S THE SPECIFIC- IT'S AN
INVESTMENT THE PROVIDER TYPES-
SUCH AS- CHILDREN'S PREVENT OF-
CARE MATERNAL CARE- BIRTH EQUITY
IN BEHAVIORAL HEALTH
INTEGRATION- AS PREVIOUSLY
MENTIONED THERE HAVE BEEN-
CERTAIN PROVIDER TYPES THAT. ARE
WITHIN- ASSEMBLY BILL OR SENATE
BILL ONE EIGHTEEN. THAT WILL GO
LIVE A GENERAL ONE TWENTY TWENTY
FOUR- AND- THE ADMINISTRATION
WILL COME FORWARD TO THE
LEGISLATURE AS PART OF A TWENTY
FOUR TWENTY FIVE GOVERNMENT'S
BUDGET WITH SUBSEQUENT
INVESTMENTS. SO THERE'S A FIVE
YEAR THERE'S A FIVE YEAR-
ALLOCATION I'M SO HAS THIS HAVE
THOSE STAKEHOLDERS BEEN CHOSEN.
AT THOSE PROVIDERS BEEN CHOSEN
OR WILL THERE BE. INPUT FROM
OTHER STAKEHOLDERS. TO SAY HEY
WE MAY WE NEED TO WE SHOULD MAKE
WE WANT TO MAKE AN ARGUMENT OF
HOW WE HOW WE COULD BENEFIT FROM
A RAPE OUR PROVIDE A RATE
INCREASE THE- THE TERM SHEET-
PROVIDED LEGISLATURE HAS
CATEGORIES OF- INVESTMENTS A
PRIMARY CARE SPECIALTY CARE
COMMUNITY AN OUTPATIENT
PROCEDURE SERVICES THAT DOES NOT
IN THAT. SO THOSE PROVIDERS NOT
IN THAT SHE DON'T GET A RATE A
RATE INCREASE THAT THE
ADMINISTRATION WILL BE COMING
FORWARD AS PART THE. TWENTY FOUR
TWENTY FIVE GOVERNOR'S BUDGET
WITH ADDITIONAL- INVESTMENT
QUICK REQUEST SO CENTER. PENDING
OR IS IT DONE. IT'S PENDING.
OKAY HEY HESITATED THERE SO I'M
GONNA HOLD YOU THAT I'M IN TERMS
OF- JUMPING TO SB ONE TWENTY-
THE THIS BILL REMOVES THE
REQUIREMENT THAT AGRICULTURAL
PRODUCTS PART OF PURCHASE TO THE
CALIFORNIA FRUIT AND VEGETABLE
EBT PILOT PROGRAM. THE
CALIFORNIA GROWN- WHY IS WHY WAS
THAT REQUIREMENT REMOVED.
HI NICOLE VASQUEZ WITH ASSEMBLY
BUDGET- IT WAS TOLD TO US THAT
THE PILOT OPERATORS CURRENTLY
RECEIVING THE FUNDING THAT THIS
WAS UNNECESSARILY RESTRICTIVE
FOR THEM. THAT COMMUNITIES THAT
ARE NOT NEAR FARMERS MARKETS OR
PLACES THAT THAT HAVE CALIFORNIA
GROWN FOOD DID NOT HAVE ACCESS
THROUGH THE PILOT THAT IS
INTENDED TO GIVE THEM ACCESS TO
THE FOOD. SERVICE IT WAS SO CAME
FROM THE PROGRAM YES THE PROGRAM
ITSELF WANTED WANTED TO DIDN'T
DIDN'T HAVE GET ENOUGH. FRUITS
AND VEGETABLES FROM CALIFORNIA
FARMERS- IT WAS THE PROGRAM
OPERATORS AND THE NUTRITION
ADVOCATES WHO REQUESTED THAT THE
PILOT BE EXTENDED AND FUNDED
RIGHT BUT YOU WERE YOU REMOVED A
REQUIREMENT THAT THOSE PRODUCTS
BE FROM CALIFORNIA. SO WHY WAS
THAT DONE IT SAID FROM THE
PROVIDERS THAT'S FROM THE
PROVIDERS AND FROM THE NUTRITION
AND FOOD ADVOCATES WHO CHAMPION
THE PROPOSAL I WANTED IT REMOVED
THEY DID THEY ACTUALLY DID OKAY
UP. I'LL GIVE CREDIT TO THE
CHAIR ON THIS QUESTION DO IT
WILL THEY STILL PRIORITIZE
CALIFORNIA PRODUCTS. THAT WAS
NOT A SPECIFICALLY STATED IN THE
LANGUAGE WE REMOVE THE
CALIFORNIA GROWN NOTATION AND
THE DEFINITION AND THE LANGUAGE
WHICH ALLOWS FOR. THE DEPARTMENT
TO WORK WITH THE GRANTEES TO
DECIDE HOW TO DO THAT OKAY WELL
THAT MIGHT BE A QUESTION I HAVE
FOR THEM THEY TESTIFIED BEFORE
THE SUBCOMMITTEE. AGAIN HOW WHY
THAT WHY THEY REMOVED IT WHY AND
SHOULDN'T AB THEY SHOULD
PRIORITISE CALIFORNIA- PRODUCTS
WHICH I THINK THE LEGISLATURE
HAS BEEN A RECORD- FOR THAT TO
HAPPEN. I'M TWO DEPARTMENT DID
TO DEVELOP A SERVICES AS THE ONE
TWENTY ONE- PART OF MAY AND THEN
MAYBE STEP TO THE FORMER
FINANCED IN PART OF THE RATE
STUDY- ALSO NEGATIVELY IMPACTED
SOME SERVICE PROVIDERS AND I
KNOW THAT. DDS AND REGIONAL
CENTERS HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH
LOCAL PROVIDERS THAT WOULD SEE A
REDUCTION THE FUNDING SO DOES
THIS BILL GUARANTEE AND THAT
LOCAL SERVICE PROVIDERS NOT LOSE
FUNDING IS THERE BASS LINE THAT
THEY'LL GET. RESPOND TO THAT AS
WELL IN THE CLASS BECAUSE THAT'S
IN THE BUDGET YES WE DID
INCORPORATE A BASELINE FIX IN
THE DD TRAILER BILL. TO ALLOW
FOR- NO PROVIDER TO GO BELOW
WHAT THEY WERE PRIOR TO THE
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE RATE STUDY
SO WE DID WE DID INCLUDE THAT.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH- JUMPING TO
BUT SB ONE TWENTY TWO- THE
PUBLIC RESOURCES- THIS IS A BILL
CHANGE THE BOUNDARY AREA THAT
WOULD REQUIRE MEDICATION. TO
ADDRESS THE IMPACTS OF THE
JOSHUA TREES AND WHAT ARE THOSE
NEW BOUNDARIES. THE REBEKAH HIS
LEAVE IT ALONE BECAUSE SOMEONE
ELSE ANSWERED. I KNOW YOU DON'T
LIKE TO- THANK MISTER BOTTOM.
WELCOME TO THE BUDGET COMMITTEE
. GOOD EVENING COMMITTEE
MEMBERS- JAPON DIRECT TO THE
CALIFORNIA DEPARTMENT OF FISH
AND WILDLIFE. MR FONG IN
RESPONSE TO YOUR QUESTION. YES
BUT- HEY THAT LAST PART YES. AT
AT IF I CAN IMAGINE THE MAP IN
MY HEAD. A TECHNICAL CORRECTION
CLEANUP WAS MADE ON THE BOUNDARY
. WHICH PREVIOUSLY WAS FIFTY
EIGHT RUNNING WEST THROUGH
BAKERSFIELD- TEN NINETEEN OF TO
FIVE DOWN TO NINETY NINE. AND
NOW THE BOUNDARY RUNS. FIFTY
EIGHT WEST TO NINETY NINE IT
DOWN SO YOU BASICALLY HAVE AN
UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLE FROM NINETY
NINE TO FIVE. WHICH IS ABOVE TO
HONE RANCH THE WEST SIDE OF
BAKERSFIELD. IT DOES NOT THAT
BOUNDARY CHANGES JUST NOT
PROHIBIT DEVELOPMENT DOES NOT
TAKE AWAY THE OPPORTUNITY FOR
PARTIES TO OPT INTO THE IN LIEU
FEE PAYMENT PROGRAM. IT JUST
SHIFTS THE FEE FROM THE LOWER
AMOUNT TO THE HIGHER AMOUNT BUT
BUT IT DOES IMPACT IT LET ME LET
ME FINISH IF I COULD THERE ARE
NO TREES IN THAT TRIANGLE. AND
THE HABITAT SUITABILITY MAPS
INDICATE THERE ARE NOT TREES IN
THAT TRIANGLE. SO THAT BEGS THE
QUESTION IF THERE ARE NO TREES
IN THE TRIANGLE WHY ARE THEY
THERE. TO CORRECT THE BOUNDARIES
USING THE ROADWAYS WHICH IS THE
TYPICAL- DESCRIPTION FORM USED
IN THE FISH AND GAME CODE AND-
THERE I'D ALSO REFERRED ANY
QUESTIONS ON WHY THE CHANGE WAS
MADE- TO ASSEMBLY STAFF HERE I'M
A I'M I'M JUST POINTING OUT THE
FACT THAT YOU'VE SAID THAT THIS
LEADS SOMEONE TO A HIGHER
MITIGATION FEE. BUT YOU ALSO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT THERE
IS NO. TREES ESTADO DOCTORS IN
THIS REGION THE FACT THAT THIS
AREA IS DRAWN INTO THIS BOUNDARY
MAKES NO SENSE IF THERE ARE NO
JOSHUA TREES IN THAT REGION. SO
ASSEMBLY MEMBER I WOULD DIRECT
THE TECHNICAL CLEAN UP QUESTION
ALSO TO ASSEMBLY STAFF AND THEN
I'D SAY I'M JUST SUPER THANKFUL
WE'RE HERE. BECAUSE THIS WAS A
SUPER CONTENTIOUS ISSUE IN
SUBCOMMITTEE. WITH A COMPETING
POLICY BILLS SUBMITTED IN THE
ASSEMBLY WHICH IS NOW BEEN
RECONCILED. FOR A GREAT OUTCOME.
FOR BUSINESS CERTAINTY
DEVELOPMENT AND CONSERVATION OF
ICONIC TREES. SO ALL I KNOW I
WAS IN I THINK I ASKED YOU THIS
QUESTION- IN THAT SUBCOMMITTEE
BUT LET ME JUST UNDERSTAND
WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW WITH THIS
NEW TRAILER BILL SO CRITICAL
RESOURCE RECOVERY OPERATIONS
WHICH PROVIDE THE ESSENTIAL
MATERIALS USED IN. PUBLIC
INFRASTRUCTURE RENEWABLE ENERGY
HOUSING PROJECTS WITHIN AND
OUTSIDE OF. THE ENVIRONMENT
JUSTICE COMMITTEES ARE SUBJECT
TO THE SURFACE MINING AND
RECLAMATION ACT. KNOWN AS S. M.
A. R. S. M. A. R. A. AND THIS
REQUIRES AN OPERATOR HAVE A
RECLAMATION PLAN THAT REQUIRES
RESTORATION OF THE LAND TO A
FUTURE BENEFICIAL USE. BY
REQUIRING MITIGATION FOR A
SPECIES THAT THE DEPARTMENT'S
OWN INDEPENDENT OF THE
SCIENTISTS SAY IS NOT
THREATENED. YOUR MARKET MY
CONCERN IS THAT THESE OPERATORS
ARE UNFAIRLY SUBJECT TO
ADDITIONAL MITIGATION FOR
WESTERN JOSHUA TREE COMPARED TO
OTHER. COMMERCIAL OPERATIONS WHO
HAVE NO RECLAMATION OBLIGATIONS
. DID YOU WANT TO. SURE ASSEMBLY
MEMBER FONG. THIS IS A
INNOVATIVE. APPROACH THE BALANCE
THE PRESERVATION OF ICONIC TREES
ACROSS ALMOST FIVE THOUSAND
SQUARE MILES. AND FOR THE FIRST
TIME EVER. CREATED IN LIEU OPT
IN PROGRAM. FOR DEVELOPMENT.
THIS IS A EXAMPLE OF CALIFORNIA
BALANCING ALL ITS VALUES. FOR
THOSE PROJECTS THAT ALREADY HAVE
LEGAL ENTITLEMENTS I THINK
YOU'RE REFERRING TO AGGREGATE
MINING. THERE'S A PATHWAY FOR
THOSE PROJECTS TO EXIST UNDER
THEIR CURRENT LAW APPROVALS AS
WELL AS ANY EXPANSIONS. DOES HE
ADDED COSTS. ASSEMBLY MEMBER.
THIS IS AGAINST THE BACKDROP OF
A POTENTIAL LISTING UNDER THE
CALIFORNIA ENDANGERED SPECIES
ACT OF WESTERN JOSHUA TREE WHICH
I WOULD ARGUE WOULD MAKE IT MORE
CHALLENGING FOR DEVELOPMENT.
THEN THE INNOVATIVE SOLUTION
THAT'S BEEN DISCUSSED ACROSS
BOTH CHAMBERS AND WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION. HELLO YEAH YEAH
BETTER BETTER R. SUM JERRY
ANSWER. I WOULD OFFER THAT. THIS
BILL OF. HAD OF COMPETING
ASSEMBLY THE BILL AS- THE
DIRECTOR POINTED OUT OF THIS
BILL WAS VETTED VERY THOROUGHLY.
AND I FEEL CONFIDENT THAT OF THE
QUESTIONS THAT YOU'RE ASKING
SORT OF POSTED AS A BLACK OR
WHITE YOUR FIRST QUESTION BEING-
WELL THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE MORE
COST- AND- IF STATE LISTED
SPECIES ALTOGETHER AS AN
ENDANGERED SPECIES IT WILL
CERTAINLY CAUSE MORE COST. THIS
WILL CAUSE MORE COSTS BUT IT WAS
MUCH MORE FLEXIBILITY AND GIVEN
THAT CALIFORNIA- IS FACING
CLIMATE CHANGE THERE IS PROBABLY
SOME PLACES WHERE THE SPECIES IS
NO LONGER GOING TO BE VIABLE.
BUT OTHER PLACES WHERE WE HAVE
TO INVEST SIGNIFICANT RESOURCES
TO MAKE SURE IT STAYS VIABLE
THIS YEAR'S OF AN INNOVATIVE AND
THE KIND OF PLAN WE NEED GIVEN
CLIMATE CHANGE COMING. AND IT'S
THE OLD EITHER YOU DO IT OR YOU
DON'T DO IT SORT OF MAJOR
CLASSIFICATIONS SIDE OF IT- IS
IN THIS SITUATION- IT'S NOT AS
AS HEALTHY SO I'VE JUST I. I
APPRECIATE THE ANSWER I'M JUST
SAYING TO EVERYONE. HERE THAT
THIS IS NEVER BEEN DONE. THE
CONCERN I RAISED SEVEN IN
SUBCOMMITTEE WAS THAT WHAT WE'RE
GONNA DO FOR OPERATIONS IN ORDER
THE EXISTING AREAS AND EDIT IN
UNDER THE BACKDROP. AS WELL THAT
THE DEPARTMENT'S OWN INDEPENDENT
GROUP OF SCIENTISTS SAY THAT
THIS IS NOT A DETERRENT SPECIES
SO I I'M JUST OUTLINED THE
CONCERNS THAT THAT THERE IS
GOING TO BE IMPACTS. TO HOUSING
BUSINESS OPERATIONS RENEWABLE I
WON'T SPEAK FOR MY COLLEAGUES
HERE IN LANCASTER PALMDALE THEY
MIGHT HAVE SOME OTHER QUESTIONS
AS WELL BUT I JUST WANT OUTLINED
THOSE CONCERNS ARE MOVING I
DON'T HAVE A SHORT TIME SO I
WANNA MAKE BE VERY QUICK AND IN
TERMS OF. I ASK THIS QUESTION
ALL THE TIME AND CHRISTIAN DOES
BUT THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL
FUNDING FOR ABOVE GROUND STORAGE
JUST WANNA MAKE SURE THAT THAT I
UNDERSTAND THAT CORRECTLY
CORRECT. NOT A BUDGET COMMITTEE
HEARING TO ASK ABOUT WATER- AND
THE LACK OF INVESTED BY THIS THE
BY THE LEGISLATURE AND THE
GOVERNOR. I'M IN TERMS OF THE
ENERGY TRAILER BILLS. I'M TRYING
TO UNDERSTAND THE RATEPAYER
IMPACT. WITH A D. W. R. BEING
THE- V. CENTRAL ENERGY PICTURE
WHAT IS THE- THE IMPACT TO THE
REPAIR. THIS IS SHY FORBES
ASSEMBLY BUDGET THAT PROPOSAL IS
NOT IN THESE BUDGET TRAILER BILL
. THAT'S OKAY WHICH WHICH IT'S
DESIGNED THIS ONE OKAY. I'M IN
ANY OF THEM. OKAY AND THEN
JUMPING TO THE NEXT THAT'S RIGHT
NEXT QUESTION IN TERMS OF- THE-
THIS OUR- COMMISSION TO LOOK AT
GAS PRICES- YOU KNOW LOOK AT
TALKING TO ENERGY EXPERTS RIGHT
NOW. DOMESTIC PRODUCTION HAS
DECLINED PRECIPITOUSLY- THE
AMOUNT OF IMPORTS. COMING INTO
SAY CALIFORNIA IS AT CAPACITY SO
THAT THERE'S A DELTA THAT IS NOT
BEING REPLACED AND SAID. WE
THERE'S WARNINGS THAT WE'RE
GOING TO SEE A GASOLINE SHORTAGE
IN THE SUMMER SO DOES ANYTHING.
IN THIS TRAILER BILL. ADDRESS
THAT AND WHAT IS THIS NEW
COMMISSION GOING TO DO WITH THAT
SHORTAGE. I AM IN NOW THE
DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE SO TO THE
MEMBERS SPECIFIC CONCERN I DON'T
THINK ANY OF THE TRAILER BILL
CHANGES ADDRESSES THAT
PARTICULAR CONCERN THE OVERALL
BILL DOES VAST- CC WITH NEW
AUTHORITIES TO LOOK AT- WHAT
REFINERS IN THE FIELD MARKET
PRODUCERS ARE DOING SO- BEING
EFFECTIVE- THIS PAST WEEK- WE
WOULD EXPECT THAT- CC CAN GO IN
AND- START REQUESTING SOME OF
THESE. WELL I HOPE TO SEE YOU
SEE WILL LOOK AT THE GAS TAX
INCREASE GOING UP IN NEXT MONTH
AND I HOPE THEY WILL LOOK AT.
THE FACT THAT WE'RE GOING TO
HAVE A SHORTAGE THAT EVERY
ENERGY EXPERT HAS WARNED US THIS
SUMMER AND WHEN GAS PRICES GO UP
I HOPE THE ENERGY COULD THIS
ENERGY COMMISSION WILL BE
HONEST. WITH WHY GAS PRICES
GOING UP AND THE IMBALANCE OF
SUPPLY AND DEMAND. I'M THE ONLY
OTHER QUESTION I HAVE- IN TERMS
OF- THE PUBLIC SAFETY IS MY
UNDERSTANDING THAT- THE END
THERE'S INTENT LANGUAGE FOR NEW
PRISONS TO BE CLOSED I HAVE
CONCERNS ABOUT THAT BUT- HAS
THERE BEEN ANY. COMMUNICATION
WITH ANY LOCAL COMMUNITIES THAT
ARE POTENTIALLY IMPACTED. OR
HAVE ANY OF THOSE PRISONS BEEN
IDENTIFIED. JENNIFER KIM WHAT
THE ASSEMBLY BUDGET COMMITTEE
THERE HAVE BEEN NO PRISONS
IDENTIFIED- FOR THAT PIECE OF
THE TRAILER BILL WHAT IT
REQUIRES IS FOR THE DEPARTMENT
OF CORRECTIONS TO PROVIDE AN
ASSESSMENT OF ITS CURRENT
CAPACITY. THAT'S NEEDED TO MEET
ITS OPERATIONS REHABILITATION
GOALS AND SO- WE'RE WAITING FOR
THAT PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT
THAT'S DUE AUGUST FIFTEENTH AND
THEN A FINAL ASSESSMENT- IN
NOVEMBER TO INFORM THESE
DISCUSSIONS OKAY. THANK YOU SO
MUCH APPRECIATE THE CHAIR IN THE
COMMITTEE'S INDULGENCE FOR ALL
THE QUESTIONS I HAD- AGAIN. I'M
CONCERNED ABOUT THE
SUSTAINABILITY I'M CONCERNED
ABOUT THE A MULTI YEAR DEFICITS
I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE PROCESS
ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE-
PROPOSES IN HERE THAT I THINK IT
MEMBERS OF BOTH SIDES I'LL HAVE
NOT VETTED- SO I HAVE- ANSWERS
CONCERTS THANK YOU. THANK YOU MR
VICE CHAIR AHMED AS I STATED
BEFORE- YOU KNOW WE KNOW THAT
THE BUDGET IN THE FUTURE FACES A
SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF
UNCERTAINTY IS ALSO WHY WE'VE-
SET OUR BUDGETS TO THE
SIGNIFICANTLY FOCUSED ALMOST.
YOU KNOW 80% OF OUR ADDITIONAL
SPENDING OUR ONGOING SPENDING I
WAS VERY MUCH FOCUSED ON ONE
TIME SPENDING AT THAT WE EVEN
THIS YEAR HAVE START TO SPREAD
OUT IN THE FUTURE I IMAGINE. IF
TIMES GET TOUGHER IN THE NEXT
YEAR OR TWO WE WILL CONTINUE TO
PUSH SOME OF THOSE ITEMS OUT
INTO THE FUTURE OR LOOK AT- DEBT
SERVICE DEBT SERVICE ALLOWS.
AGAIN CRITICAL HOUSING TO BE
BUILT AT OUR UNIVERSITIES WHICH
IS NEEDED TODAY. BUT ALLOWS US
TO PAY FOR OVERTIME NO NO
DIFFERENT THAN HOW WE WOULD TAKE
OUT A MORTGAGE FOR OUR HOMES. WE
HAD TO BUY A HOME ALL CASH
SHOULD BE FOR ALMOST ALL OF US
COMPLETELY UNATTAINABLE BUT
BEING ABLE TO FINANCE IT ALLOWS
US TO BE ABLE TO BUY OUR HOME
TODAY. AND REALLY SECURE OUR
FUTURE FOR TOMORROW SO LET ME
SEE I'M LOOKING FOR OTHER.
MEMBERS OF THE DICE MISTER
ALVAREZ. THANK YOU VERY MUCH
MISTER CHAIR- THANK YOU ALL FOR
. THE RESPONSE TO THE QUESTIONS
TO NOW I'M GONNA TRY TO. GO
THROUGH THIS TIME I MADE NOTES-
THE ON S. B. ONE OF TWO- I AM
TWENTY ONE IN THE ANALYSIS
REFERS TO THEIR TEACHER
RESIDENCY GRANT PROGRAM. I ALSO
KNOW THERE WAS THE GOLDEN STATE
GRANT PROGRAM- I'M CURIOUS
WHETHER EITHER OF THESE- CHANGES
THE REQUIREMENTS TO SERVE AND- I
REMEMBER CALLING THE SCHOOLS
WHETHER WAS. LOW INCOME OR
SPECIAL NEEDS OR I THINK YOU
PROBABLY UNDERSTAND WHAT I'M
REFERRING TO BUT I KNEW IT WAS
AN ACT THERE WAS AN ATTEMPT. TO
ELIMINATE THE REQUIREMENT TO
SERVE AND HIGH NEED SCHOOLS I
THINK THAT THE MOST. IS THAT I
WOULD IS INCLUDED IN A LANGUAGE
TODAY OR NOT. AARON GABLE FROM
THE ASSEMBLY BUDGET COMMITTEE SO
I CHANGES TO ELIGIBILITY AROUND
THE SCHOOLS NO CHANGES WERE MADE
IN THE TRAILER BILL FOR EITHER
PROGRAM. HOWEVER WE DID MAKE AN
AUGMENTATION TO THE GOLDEN STATE
FUTURE PROGRAM ADDITIONAL ID A
FUNDS SO THAT WE COULD RECRUIT
MORE SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHERS.
AND ADDITIONALLY FOR THE TEACHER
RESIDENCY PROGRAM WE ADDED
PRESCHOOLS AS AN ELIGIBLE-
EMPLOYER. OF THOSE RESIDENTS AND
WE ALSO AUTHORIZED A NEW DIVERSE
EDUCATORS SATIN. ADMINISTRATIVE
PROGRAM SO IT'LL BE AN ADD ON TO
THE TEACHER RESIDENCY PROGRAM
SPECIFICALLY AROUND SCHOOL SITE
ADMINISTRATORS. OFFERED
DIVERSIFYING THE WORKFORCE SO I
WAS GONNA ASK ABOUT THAT ONE
NEWS ITEM SIXTY FIVE IN THE-
NOTED IN THE ANALYSIS- IS A
REQUIREMENT FOR THAT PROGRAM IN
THE ADMINISTRATORS ALSO FOR HIGH
NEED SCHOOLS. CORRECT THANK YOU
- I AM THIRTY FOUR IS RELATED TO
THE L. CAP- REPORTING AND-
REQUIREMENTS. THIS IS NOW BEING
INSTITUTED INTO NOT JUST THE
EQUITY MULTIPLIER SCHOOLS BUT
FOR ALL SCHOOLS CORRECTIVE IT'S
WHEN. A SCHOOL OR A DISTRICT-
SUBGROUP ISN'T MEETING-
STANDARDS. IS THIS IS THIS THIS
LANGUAGE COVER ALL SCHOOLS ARE
JUST THE EQUITY MULTIPLIER
SCHOOLS- IN TERMS OF THE CHANGES
FOR THE- FOR THE GOALS FOR THE
GOAL RIGHT FOR THE FOR THE GOALS
OF FOR THE ACTIONS OF THOSE WERE
FOR ALL SCHOOLS THERE VERSUS
SPECIFIC SUBSET THAT WAS ADAM.
FOR THE MULTI EQUITY MULTIPLIER
SCHOOL SO I CAN GET BACK TO YOU
WITH THE SPECIFICS OKAY THANK
YOU. ON THE ISSUE OF THE-
READING ASSESSMENTS- I KNOW THAT
BILINGUAL EDUCATORS IN
PARTICULAR HAD SOME CONCERNS
WHAT IS THIS LET WHAT IS THE
LANGUAGE IN THE BILL- TODAY AS
IT RELATES TO. CHILDREN WHO ARE
ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS AND
NOT BEING MISCLASSIFIED AND- AND
MAKING SURE THAT WE HAVE EXPERTS
FROM THE BILINGUAL COMMUNITY ON
THE ADVISORY PANEL OR BOARD
THAT'S GOING TO BE. MAKING
RECOMMENDATIONS ON THIS. SO IN
THE FINAL PACKAGE THAT WE
ADOPTED IT LOOKS MUCH MORE VERY
LARGELY LIKE WE SAW IN THE
LANGUAGE FOR THE MAY REVISION
WE'VE BEEN WORKING WITH THE
ADMINISTRATION ON INSURANCES
THAT THERE WILL BE EXPERTS
APPOINTED BY THE STATE BOARD- IN
ORDER TO SERVE ON THAT PANEL. IN
TERMS OF- ADDRESSING THE
CONCERNS OF OUR DUAL LANGUAGE
ACQUISITION COMMUNITY ENGLISH
LANGUAGE LEARNERS. I'M ADVOCACY
ORGANIZATIONS. AND I KNOW YOU
HAVE ON THAT GUY DAS THE
ADMINISTRATION IF YOU HAVE A
RESPONSE TO THE COMMITMENTS TO
ENSURING THAT. ENGLISH LANGUAGE
LEARNERS ARE- ASSESSED
APPROPRIATELY AS PART OF THIS
PROGRAM. AND THAT WE HAVE
EXPERTS THAT UNDERSTAND THIS
ISSUE HELP US ADVICE ON- THIS
GOING FORWARD. YEAH CERTAINLY-
WE HAVE A COMMITMENT TO WORK
WITH THE STATE BOARD TO MAKE
THAT HAPPEN. AS WELL AS A
COMMITMENT TO LOOK AT
HOLISTICALLY. YOU KNOW WHAT THE
LANGUAGE THAT'S BEING MOVED
FORWARD SO IF WE NEED TO MAKE AN
ADJUSTMENT IN THE FUTURE YOUR WE
CERTAINLY COULD- SO WE HAVE
THAT. THAT COMMITMENT BUT- AS IT
STANDS THE BILL LANGUAGE THAT WE
PUT FORWARD IT AT THE MAY
REVISION IS LARGELY WHAT YOU SEE
BEFORE YOU TODAY. A MAN THAT IS
THE- SORT OF A CRUX OF- WHAT
MISS GABLES AND- ACT RECEIVE
THAT RESPONSE- ON ITEM SIXTY
ANNOUNCES RELATES TO THE ARTS
MUSIC- MATERIAL DISCRETIONARY
BLOCK PROGRAMS SOMETHING VERY
IMPORTANT FOR. FOR MYSELF AND I
KNOW FOR A LOT OF ADVOCATES-
IT'S BEING. THERE IS A-
RECOGNITION- BY THE
ADMINISTRATION TO- I THINK AT
THAT ROUGHLY IN HALF. LOOKS LIKE
NOW TWO HUNDRED TWO HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLARS LESS THAN THE
THREE POINT. FIVE BILLION DOLLAR
PREVIOUS COMMITMENT- FIRST OF
ALL IS THAT CORRECT. YES THAT IS
CORRECT THAT'S THE REDUCTION
DOES I KNOW THERE ARE CONCERNS
BY SCHOOL DISTRICTS ON A
COMMITMENTS HAVE BEEN MADE NINE
OF THE L. A. O.'S OFFICE HAD
RAISED THIS. BY COMMITTED MADE
TOWARD EXPAND THOSE DOLLARS TO
WE BELIEVE THAT THE TWO HUNDRED
MILLION DOLLAR REDUCTION WILL
NOT JEOPARDIZE ANY OF THE
MATERIALS OR GRANT PROGRAMS. YES
SO THE- THE DECISION AROUND THAT
REDUCTION IT WAS THAT MADE A
PRIORITY IN THE THREE PARTY DEAL
TO TRY TO MITIGATE REDUCTION
SPECIFICALLY TO THAT BLOCK
GRANT. A BECAUSE OF THE CONCERNS
THAT WE HEARD WE TOOK THAT
REDUCTION IN CONSIDERATION WITH
THE INCREASES THAT WE WILL BE
SEEN IN THE BUDGET YEAR FOR
SCHOOL DISTRICTS FOR PROPOSITION
TWENTY EIGHT. SPECIFICALLY FOR
ARTS FUNDING THAT WOULD NOT HAVE
BEEN ON THEIR SPREADSHEETS WHEN
THEY HAD ADOPTED THEIR MULTI
YOUR SPENDING PLAN. FOR THE ARTS
AND MUSIC BLOCK GRANT LAST YEAR
SO WE DO BELIEVE WITH THE ALMOST
ONE BILLION DOLLAR INCREASE THE
SCHOOLS WILL BE SEEN. IN THE
BUDGET YEAR OF GENERAL FUND
SPECIFICALLY FOR THE ARTS THEY
WILL BE ABLE TO ACCOMMODATE THE
FIVE YEAR OVER THE FIVE YEAR
ABILITY TIMELINE TO INTRODUCE
THIRD. THAT WHAT THEY WOULD'VE
OBLIGATED THE TWO HUNDRED
MILLION FOR. EVEN PROP TWENTY
EIGHT WILL COVER IS THAT WHICH
IS I THINK THAT'S WHAT I'M
UNDERSTANDING WILL COVER THE
POTENTIAL. TWO HUNDRED MILLION
WE BELIEVE THAT IT WILL MORE
THAN BE ABLE TO MAKE UP FOR THE
FACT THAT THAT REDUCTION HAD TO
BE MADE IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE
THE ONE TIME CERVANTES REDUCTION
NOT. WE'RE NOT CONCERNED THAT
THAN THAT VIOLATES PROP TWENTY
EIGHT LANGUAGE THAT IT'S MUST
NOT SUPPLANT BUT- SUPPLEMENT.
EXISTING ARTS FUNDING. YES
THAT'S CORRECT WE DON'T BELIEVE
THAT THAT VIOLATES THE TERMS OF
PROP TWENTY EIGHT THAT
SUPPLEMENT NOT SUPPLANT
PROVISION OF THE LOCAL
PROVISION. AROUND LOCAL SPENDING
SO TO THE EXTENT THAT THEY HAVE
NOT YOU. UTILIZE THOSE
RESOURCES- THEY WOULD NOT HAVE.
YOU KNOW A CAP THAT SAYS SPEND
MORE THAN THIS LEVEL. AND WE
KNOW THAT MANY DISTRICTS
THROUGHOUT THE STATE WERE
PLANNING TO EXPAND THOSE. AT
ROUGHLY THREE POINT FOUR BILLION
OVER A MULTI YEAR PERIOD OKAY
THANK YOU- I HAVE A QUESTION ON
THE NEXT- BUDGET BILL WHICH IS-
ON CHILD CARE- JUST TO BE CLEAR
THE- INCREASE- THE FAMILY FEES
ARE BEING WAIVED OR THOSE. THAT
FOR ONE YEAR OR IS THAT MULTI
YEAR. SO THERE ARE LAYERS TO THE
FAMILY FEE PROPOSAL THAT WE'VE
HAD OVER MULTIPLE BUDGET ACTS
AND THE EARLY ACTION PACKAGE TO
BE ADOPTED EARLIER THIS YEAR.
CONTINUED THE WAIVERS FROM THE
COVERT ERA OF ALL FAMILY FEES
AND TELL AND THEY WOULDN'T GO
BACK ONLINE UNTIL OCTOBER FIRST
OF TWENTY TWENTY THREE. WHAT'S
ON SB ONE SIXTEEN DOES IS THAT
ONCE THOSE FAMILY FEES FOR EARLY
ACTION WERE TO COME BACK ONLINE.
RATHER THAN THEM COMING BACK
ONLINE 210% OF FAMILY INCOME.
ARE THEY COME WILL COME BACK
LINE ONLINE AT ONLY 1% OF THE
FAMILY INCOMES WILL BE A
SIGNIFICANT REDUCTION. TO THE
BURDEN ON FAMILIES- INSIDE THE
FAMILY FEE SYSTEM FOR ALL CHILD
CARE PROGRAMS AND PRESCHOOL
PROGRAMS. HEY THERE ANYTHING
YOU'D LIKE TO ADD. EXCITEDLY
WALK UP HERE TO THE MICROPHONE
NO I THINK MISS CABLE COVERAGE.
THANK YOU. LET ME ASK ABOUT- ON
HIGHER EDUCATION. ITEM NUMBER
SEVENTEEN IN THAT BILL. LOS
ANGELES COMMUNITY COLLEGE
DISTRICT SMALL BUSINESS
ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND INNOVATION
CENTER IN EAST LOS ANGELES. I
DON'T REMEMBER SEEING THIS
PROPOSAL BEFORE IT IS THIS. YOUR
WAS THERE BEFORE AND I JUST
MISSED. IT'S BEEN THERE SINCE
THE MAY REVISION HAS BEEN THERE
SINCE THE MAY REVISION OKAY. AND
HOW MANY INDIVIDUALS ARE GOING
TO BE SERVED BY THIS PROGRAM.
CHOI I DON'T HAVE A SPECIFIC
NUMBER- FOR THAT PARTICULAR
PROGRAM- WHAT I CAN SAY THOUGH
IS- THIS WAS A- A REQUEST OF THE
DISTRICT THAT BUT CERTAINLY ON-
CAUCUS LIST AND I AKAKA'S ASK AS
WELL. GOT IT THANK YOU. I'M
WHILE I'M AT THAT AND- ARE THERE
ANY ADDITIONAL ITEMS IN. OUR
HIGHER EDUCATION OR EDUCATION
THAT WERE NOT IN THE MAY
REVISION THAT ARE NOW IN THIS
FINAL OR IN THIS VERSION OF THE
BUDGET ADMINISTRATION'S
PERSPECTIVE- GROUP LARGELY THAT
THERE ARE SOME CERTAIN-
INCREASES THAT WERE- AGREED TO
AS PART OF THE THREE PARTY DEAL
THAT WERE REFLECTED IN THE TWO
PARTY DEAL- I WOULD SAY- YOU
KNOW THOSE. THOSE RANGE FROM
KOHL'S ON EXISTING PROGRAMS AT
UC AND CSU- WHETHER THAT'S RAPID
RE HOUSING- BASIC NEEDS PROGRAMS
THAT THEY OPERATE- SO SEVERAL OF
THOSE PROGRAMS THERE ARE ALSO
SEVERAL INDIVIDUAL CAMPUS
INVESTMENTS. I'M THAT WERE PUT
FORWARD ANYWHERE FROM- FIVE
MILLION- ONE TIME FOR THE- AB
FIVE MILLION ONE TIME THIS YEAR
AND THREE MILLION ONGOING FOR
THE BUNCH CENTER AT UCLA- I
BELIEVE THERE WAS FIFTEEN
MILLION- TO SUPPORT. I CAL STATE
UNIVERSITY DOMINGUEZ HILLS THAT
WAS INCLUDED I'M SO THERE ARE
SOME VERY SOME VESTMENTS THAT
CAME FROM THE TWO PARTY
AGREEMENT THAT HAVE ROLLED
FORWARD- BUT CERTAINLY ALL HAVE-
BEEN REFLECTED THE ONE THAT
COMES TO MIND THAT- BUT SLIGHTLY
DIFFERENT- FROM THE MAY REVISION
IN THE TWO PARTY AGREEMENT. IS
THE- THE RESEARCH THE
FIREFIGHTING RESEARCH THAT WAS-
PROVIDED FUNDING THAT WAS
PROVIDED TO YOU UNIVERSITY
CALIFORNIA WAS A FIVE MILLION
ONE TIME IN THE TWO PARTY
AGREEMENT THAT'S BEEN INCREASED
TO SEVEN MILLION ONE TIME. IN
THE THREE PARTY AGREEMENT. I'M
SO A DOMINGUEZ HILL UCLA- THOSE
CUTE WERE REFLECTIVE OF. AN
AGREEMENT WITH THE LEGISLATURE
NOT REQUEST FROM THE
ADMINISTRATION. THAT'S CORRECT
THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL CAME
FROM- THE MAY REVISION THERE
ALSO- SEVERAL THAT CAME OUT OF
THE TWO PARTY AGREEMENT. THANK
YOU APPRECIATE THAT- CAN
SOMEBODY SPEAK TO THE L.
ENHANCED L. P. S. ACT DATA AND
REPORTING AND WHAT THAT WOULD
MEAN ON THE GROUND FOR THE ISSUE
OF- LPS- I KNOW THIS IS AN
IMPORTANT ISSUE. SORT OF RELATED
TECH CARE COURT BUT NOT EXACTLY
CARE COURT IS I'D LIKE TO HEAR
BUT WE THINK THAT THIS IS GOING
TO- HELP US ACHIEVE.
WE ARE ALMOST A FROM A FINANCE
APOLOGIES FOR THE DELAY. ALSO
THE LPS LANGUAGE IS INTENDED TO
BE ABLE TO ADDRESS A GAPS IN
REPORTING THAT WE HAD PREVIOUSLY
IDENTIFIED- IT WAS PART OF THE
MAY REVISED PROPOSALS. IF YOU
HAVE SPECIFIC QUESTIONS WE MAY
BE ABLE TO TRUST THAT I JUST
LIKE TO UNDERSTAND THIS OF THE
WHAT WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE THE
DATA AND THE REPORTING WILL HELP
US TO BETTER ACCOMPLISH. AS IT
RELATES TO THESE PROGRAMS. OTHER
GOAL OF BY. BEING ABLE TO
ADDRESS OR GATHER THIS
INFORMATION IS OUT TO BE ABLE TO
COLLECT THE DATA AT A STATEWIDE
LEVEL AND BE ABLE TO ANALYZE
THAT AND BE ABLE TO REPORT ON
THE STATE LEVEL. WHAT FUTURE
INVESTMENTS IN PROGRAMS BE DAY-
HE'S ALIGNED TO THAT DATA IS
THAT THE INTENT OR AT THIS TIME
THERE'S NO- AND TEND TO BUILD AN
ADDITIONAL DOLLARS HOWEVER- WILL
BE MONITORING THE DATA AND
PROCEED AS NEEDED OKAY THANK YOU
I HAVE QUESTIONS ON THE TRANSIT-
BAIL I GUESS IT'S ONE TWENTY
FIVE- SPECIFICALLY THE TRANSIT
TRANSFORMATION TASK FORCE IS
BEING- GIVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY
OF PUTTING TOGETHER A REPORT ON.
IMPROVING AND GROWING TRANSIT
RIDERSHIP- AND IT'S GOT- A
REQUIREMENT TO BRING A REPORT
BACK TO THE LEGISLATURE. OCTOBER
THIRTY FIRST BUT THERE ARE
SIGNIFICANT INVESTMENTS BEING
MADE AND WHAT- I HEAR FROM
EVERYONE ON ONE TIME INVESTMENT
FOR TRANSIT. PARTICULARLY IN THE
BAY AREA- OCTOBER THIRTY FIRST
IS AFTER NEXT YEAR'S BUDGET
DELIBERATIONS- WHAT WHAT IS THE
THINKING BEHIND THIS A DEADLINE
OF OCTOBER THIRTY FIRST AND HOW
THAT INFORMATION HELP US. MOVE
FORWARD WITH FUTURE TRANSIT
FUNDING. IF IT COMES AFTER
BUDGET DISCUSSIONS. THANK YOU
SEE WELL AS THE DEPARTMENT OF
FINANCE. THERE'S SO AS PART OF
THE OVERALL- GOOD POLICY THE OF
THE FUNDING HAS BEEN PROVIDED-
THE FIVE POINT ONE BILLION
DOLLARS THAT IS- ALLOW WILL BE
FLEXIBLE TO ADDRESS THE CURRENT-
FISCAL SITUATION. THERE ARE
THERE SORT OF MULTIPLE HITS TO
THIS WE HAVE- IN THE FIRST YEAR
WE'RE LOOKING TO GET INFORMATION
FROM YOU KNOW IN ORDER TO USE OF
THE FIRST YEAR MONEY REALLY CAN
GET INFORMATION FROM THE
REGIONAL TRANSIT PROVIDERS. THAT
WILL PROVIDE US BASICALLY- HOW
ARE YOU GONNA USE THIS MONEY TO
STAY AFLOAT AND WHAT ARE WE WHAT
ARE SOME OF YOUR POTENTIAL
PLANTS THAT'S- AND YOU KNOW ARE
YOU YOU GONNA USE THIS MONEY TO
SUPPORT- OPERATIONS OURS IS THIS
MONEY GOING ARE YOU GO OKAY ON
OPERATIONS AND- YOU KNOW TO WHAT
DEGREE YOU CAN DECLARE. THEN
THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A AN
OPERATIONAL NEED- IN THE SECOND
YEAR- WE WITH THE INFORMATION
REQUIREMENT BUMPS UP A LITTLE
FURTHER AND- IN ORDER TO GET
THESE THESE FUNDING THIS
FUNDING. AND THAT REQUIRES- YOU
KNOW UPDATES TO THEIR PLANS AND
IT REQUIRES EVERYONE TO PROVIDE
DATA AND INFORMATION- REGARDLESS
OF WHETHER THEY HAVE DECLARED AN
NEED FOR OPERATIONS ARE NOT- ALL
OF THIS INFORMATION IS THEN
GOING TO BE USED BY THE TASK
FORCE. BASICALLY DELIBERATE ON-
YOU KNOW A WHOLE WIDE RANGE OF
OPTIONS THAT NEED TO BE
CONSIDERED. AS WE MOVE FORWARD
AND AS- ALL THE BILL TRANSIT
OPERATORS TO DEVELOP LONG TERM
PLANS. AND SO THE HOPE IS TO
HAVE THE TASK FORCE OUT BE ABLE
TO SUPPLY INFORMATION TO THE
LEGISLATURE. THAT'S IN TIME FOR
THAN IMPLEMENTING THESE LONG
TERM PLANS SO THAT'S I MEAN WE
STRUGGLED WITH IT WOULD BE NICE
TO HAVE ALL THE BE ABLE TO HAVE
SOMETHING SOONER. BUT THE SAME
TIME WE NEED TO HAVE THE TIME
FOR THE TASK FORCE TO WORK WITH
ALL THE REGIONAL ENTITIES- YOU
KNOW. ALL THE ADVOCATES EVER
EVERYONE WHO HAS A SAY IN THIS
AND TO MAKE SURE THAT WE COME UP
WITH A PLAN THAT'S- FORWARD
THINKING. AND THAT HELPS MAKE
SURE THAT AS WE MOVE FORWARD WE
HAVE MORE THAN JUST PLAN FOR-
CAPITAL BUT WE ALSO HAVE PLANS
FOR OPERATIONS TO SUPPORT
ACCOUNT. THANK YOU PROCEED THE
RESPONSE I'VE I'VE LEARNED- IN
YOUR RESPONSE THAN THAT NOT ALL
OF THE FIVE POINT. CORRECT ME
BECAUSE I MIGHT HAVE
MISUNDERSTOOD NOT ALL THE FIVE
POINT ONE BILLION DOLLARS THAT
ARE THAT ARE BEING QUOTED. AS
BEING USED FOR- THE TRANSIT
AGENCIES THAT HAVE THIS FISCAL-
CLIFF THAT THEY'RE FACING WILL
BE GOING OUT IN THE CURRENT YEAR
THIS IS A TWO YEAR ALLOCATION.
IN THE SECOND ALLOCATION IS
BASED ON THE INFORMATION THEY
PROVIDED DURING THIS NEXT YEAR.
CORRECT CORRECT THEY'LL BE A
THERE THERE'S A PROGRESSION IN
THE INFORMATION IS BEING
SUPPLIED- YOU KNOW WE CONSIDER
THIS A SHORT TERM PLAN. AND THEN
THERE'S ANOTHER SHORT TERM PLAN
THAT'S AN UPDATE OF THE FIRST
ONE- THAT WILL THEN HAVE A FEW
MORE REQUIREMENTS ON IT AND THEN
THERE'S A LONG TERM PLAN THAT'S
REQUIRED IN THE LONG TERM PLAN
KIND OF SINKS WITH. THE
CULMINATION OF THE OPPORTUNITIES
THAT ARE GONNA BE PROVIDED BY
HAVING THE TASK FORCE. AND A
SPECIFIC- REPORT OUR PROCESS
WILL BE. MADE PUBLIC YEAH THAT
WE ARE OKAY. SHE DIED AND I JUST
WANNA CLARIFY THIS SO. IT'S
AGAIN- TWO TWO BUCKETS RIGHT.
TWO BILLION DOLLARS THIS YEAR
TWO BILLION DOLLARS NEXT YEAR
AND THAT'S T. I. R. C. P. MONEY
WHICH IS CAPITAL MONEY. A PART
OF THAT THAT MONEY WILL BE GOING
OUT BY POPULATION. SO IT'S BY
POPULATION NOT RIDERSHIP THE
POPULATION- THERE WILL BE. AN
ALLOWANCE OF SOME FLEXIBILITY
FOR OPERATING BUT THEY HAVE TO
COME BACK AND TELL US WHY
THEY'RE- USING A FOR OPERATING.
THE ONE POINT ONE BILLION I
BELIEVE. IS OVER- A TO FOUR YEAR
PERIOD- THAT WAS ORIGINALLY. SET
ASIDE FOR. CLEAN BUSES. AND
CLEAN TRANSIT AND THAT WILL BE
ALLOWED TO BE FLEXED. INSTEAD OF
DOING IT- AS A GRANT PROGRAM
IT'S GOING OUT BY FORMULA BUT
THE FORM THAT WILL BE USED BY
RIDERSHIP. SO NOT POPULATION BY
RIDERSHIP. AGAIN DOUBTS
CONTINUOUSLY BEFORE AGREE TO
CONTEST WE APPROPRIATE THAT OVER
A FOUR YEAR PERIOD. SO IS THAT
IS THAT CORRECT IT. YES THAT WAS
VERY VERY GOOD- THE ONE POINT
ONE BILLION IS GOING OUT THROUGH
A MIX OF POPULATION AND WRITER
SHOT AT SINGULAR THE
TRADITIONALIST YOU FORMULA BUT
ALL THE OTHER STUFF. I THANK YOU
THAT'S VERY HELPFUL- BUT DISTANT
TO CLARIFY THAT IT'S NOT IS IT
ALL TRANSIT AGENCIES OR IS IT
JUST SPECIFIC TRANSIT AGENCIES
IT WILL BE GOING TO THE REGIONAL
TRANSPORTATION AGENCIES THAT
THEN UNDER THE SEARCH SORT OF
THE CURRENT SITUATION OR THE
CURRENT- THE WAY ALL THE FUNDING
FLOWS TO THE REGION'S. THAN
THOSE REGIONAL TRANSLATE THIS
SITE WIDE X. WITH IT BUT STATE
WHY THEY WORK AND THE T. R. C.
P. WILL FLOW TO THEM- THROUGH
THE POPULATION FORMULA AND THE-
ONE POINT ONE BILLION CV FUNDS
WILL FLOW THROUGH THE- THE
STANDARD- STATE TRANSIT
ASSISTANCE FORMULA. THANK YOU
APPRECIATE IT. I THINK I'M DOWN
TO MY LAW COUPLE I READ EMERGING
SLEEP CABINS- THIS IS SOMETHING
THAT'S NEW TO ME IT'S FROM
ANOTHER COMMITTEE SUBCOMMITTEE
ASSUME. AUTO HUNDRED EMERGENCY
SLEEPING CABINS POTENTIALLY BY
THE DEPARTMENT OF GENERAL
SERVICES. CAN YOU TELL ME MORE
ABOUT THIS PROPOSAL AND- JUST
WHEN WE EXPECT THESE AND WHERE
WE EXPECT THESE CABINS TO BE.
NATALIE GOES ALL DEPARTMENT
FINANCE. SO THIS TRAILER BILL
LANGUAGE ALLOWS THE DEPARTMENT
OF GENERAL SERVICES TO IN SMALL
EMERGENCY SLEEPING CABINS OR
SMALL HOMES. IN SPECIFIC LOCAL
JURISDICTIONS ARE PARTNERED WITH
THE STATE THIS IS THE CITY OF
SAN JOSE THE CITY OF SACRAMENTO
THE CITY OF LOS ANGELES. AND SAN
DIEGO COUNTY. SO YOU HAVE
EXISTING AGREEMENTS WITH THESE
ENTITIES AGENCIES TO DO THESE
PROGRAMS. A YES THE DEPARTMENT
OF GENERAL SERVICES CURRENTLY
NEGOTIATING AGREEMENTS WITH
THESE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS TO
COMPLETE IS HOT A SMALL HOMES-
ESSENTIALLY. DEPARTMENTS AT
GENERAL SERVICES WILL BUILD THE
HOMES. AND THEN- THEY WILL
TRANSFER OWNERSHIP AND OPERATION
TO THE LOCAL GOVERNMENTS. THANK
YOU I'D ASK YOU CAN GET ME THE
INFORMATION OF THE LOCATIONS IN
SAN DIEGO COUNTY PLEASE YES I AM
I CAN PULL UP YOUR SOCKS THANK
YOU. PRECEDED I BELIEVE THAT WAS
IT FOR ME I THINK THE ONLY OTHER
GENERAL QUESTION THAT I HAVE- IS
RELATED TO THE- THE CONCERNS ON
THE LONG TERM- MY ABILITY OF A
BUDGET- STRUCTURED THIS WAY.
AMASSES BEFORE JUST WANNA
CONFIRM OR NOT- UTILIZING ANY OF
THE SAFETY NET RESERVES FOR THIS
BUDGET. THAT'S CORRECT. ARE WE
ARE DOING- LOANS FROM OTHER
FUNDS THOUGH IN THIS BUDGET.
THAT'S CORRECT THE GENERAL FUND
IS. IN LENT MONEY FROM SPECIAL-
AND THEN THE FOR THE FUNDS TO
BUILD THE HOUSING FOR- THE
UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES. THOSE
ARE 0% INTEREST LOANS IS WHAT
WE'RE- HE ADDED A PRODUCT- UP.
THAT'S WHAT I READ IN OUR
ANALYSIS CHRISTIANS.
MARK MARTIN WITH THE ASSEMBLY
BUDGET COMMITTEE THERE TO
STUDENT HOUSING PROGRAMS ONE IS
THE GRANT PROGRAM AND THEN ONE
IS THE REVOLVING LOAN FUND
PROGRAMS SO THAT REVOLVING LOAN
FUND PROGRAM IS ZERO INTEREST 0%
INTEREST LOANS. AND THAT'S WHAT
THE HECK CORNERHOUSE IS THAT'S
WHAT THE UC CSU AND COMMUNITY
COLLEGES WILL BE USING TO BUILD
HOUSING. WELL THEY'LL BE USING
BOTH SURVEYS THERE YEAH THEY
RECEIVED THERE ARE SOME GRANT
FUNDING LAST YEAR THERE SOME
FUNDING THIS YEAR THAT'S ALL
BEING CONVERTED TO. UCCS YOU
COMMITTEE COLLEGE BONDS- AND
THEN THE REVOLVING LOAN FUND IS
IT THE STATE TREASURER'S OFFICE
AND THAT WILL BE- DISTRIBUTING.
0% INTEREST LOANS FOR FUTURE
PROJECTS FOR ALL THREE SEGMENTS
. WHEN RUSSIAN APPEAR MAYBE LAST
COMMENT. IF THAT'S HELPFUL- OF
THE TWO PROGRAMS THERE'S ROUGHLY
TWO POINT TWO BILLION IN THE
AFFORDABLE STUDENT HOUSING
PROGRAM THAT WAS CONVERTED TO
LOCAL BONDS I'M WITH THE STATE
PROVIDING SUPPORT TO THE
SEGMENTS TO SUPPORT THOSE
PROJECTS. AND THEN THERE'S
ROUGHLY ONE POINT SEVEN BILLION
OVER THE MULTI YEAR THAT WOULD
SUPPORT THE STUDENT HOUSING
REVOLVING LOAN FUND. THAT WOULD
PROVIDE THE ZERO PERCENT.
INTEREST LOANS- TO THE SEGMENTS
TO COMPLETE PROJECTS. THANK YOU

ELEVATED- AND REALLY NEED
THERE'S A COMMITMENT FROM THE
LEGISLATURE AND THE
ADMINISTRATION TO DELIVER FOR
THE PEOPLE OF CALIFORNIA.
THERE'S SO MANY THINGS TO
COMMENT ON I THINK THAT THE
BIGGEST CRISIS THAT WE'RE FACING
IS HOUSING AND HOMELESSNESS.
IT'S A CONTINUED CONVERSATION
THERE HAS TO BE A WAY IN WHICH
WE CONTINUE TO- MERGE DIFFERENT
SUBCOMMITTEES THAT HAVE
DIFFERENT JURISDICTIONS UPON-
THE ISSUES RELATED TO OUR OWN
HOUSE- COMMUNITIES ACROSS
CALIFORNIA. NOT ONLY ON THE
IMPORTANCE OF CREATING AND
BUILDING MORE HOUSING AND WHAT
THAT LOOKS LIKE AND I ENSURING
THAT THE COUNTIES AND
CONTINUANCE OF CARE AB
RESOURCES. BUT ALSO WITH- MY
COLLEAGUE- ASSEMBLY MEMBER
ARAMBULA WITH ISSUES RELATED TO
MENTAL HEALTH AND- ADDITIONAL OF
RESOURCES ON HEALTH CARE. OF OUR
COLLEAGUES OF ASSEMBLY MEMBER
BONTA ISSUES RELATED TO-
ENFORCEMENT AND WHAT THAT LOOKS
LIKE FOR INDIVIDUALS WHO- YOU
KNOW NEEDS SUPPORT AN ADDITIONAL
RESOURCES AS WELL. AND SO
THERE'S A THERE'S A WE HAVE ALL
SPOKEN ABOUT THE NECESSITY TO
HAVE. A CROSS BUT SUB BUDGET
CONVERSATIONS ON THIS ISSUE
BECAUSE SOMETIMES THE
CONVERSATIONS HAVE BEEN IN SILO
SO I THINK THAT'S AN INCREDIBLY
IMPORTANT STEP THEY WERE ALL
TAKEN AND HAVING. A SUBCOMMITTEE

DIVERSITY AND WORKFORCE PLANS UP
I AM I AM PROUD AND VERY
SUPPORTIVE OF THE MEASURE THAT

OF- OF CREDIT ALLOCATION WITH AN
ANNUAL REPORT BY THE CALIFORNIA
FILM COMMISSION THAT WILL LET US
KNOW WHICH OF THE PRODUCTIONS
WERE ABLE TO ACHIEVE. LUCIEN
WE'RE GOING TO BE ABLE TO HAVE
SOME ACCOUNTABILITY AND
TRANSPARENCY MEASURES TO ENSURE
THAT THAT'S THE REALITY AND THE
GOAL THAT WE ALL HOPE TO.
ACHIEVE AND LASTLY ENSURING THAT

INCUMBENT UPON THE LEGISLATURE.
ODD TO INSURE THAT WE REMIND
