26
00:04:39.300 --> 00:04:41.760

Paul Davis: Okay sounds good, because man is definitely a.

30
00:04:55.350 --> 00:05:01.050
Joseph Murphy: jam on the website and the agenda has been posted there.

31
00:05:03.720 --> 00:05:10.260
james murez: Okay, let me, let me just show you what i'm looking at because we're clearly not on the same page um.

32
00:05:11.340 --> 00:05:14.580
Joseph Murphy: But the point is, it has been posted.

33
00:05:15.390 --> 00:05:22.770
james murez: yeah it's it's not Joe I don't want to argue with you about it but it's not but i'm going to share my screen look at look at the zoom meeting.

34
00:05:23.820 --> 00:05:28.950
james murez: And this is the current calendar for the month of January.

35
00:05:30.030 --> 00:05:30.630
james murez: Okay.

36
00:05:31.710 --> 00:05:32.430
Joseph Murphy: I got.

37
00:05:32.940 --> 00:05:43.440
james murez: Here here's January and and for January on the 27th there's nothing there so that's why I was surprised that you're having a meeting tonight.

38
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:45.690
Paul Davis: Joe where do you see that we have a meeting.

39
00:05:46.560 --> 00:05:49.500
Joseph Murphy: On on the on on our website.

40
00:05:50.970 --> 00:05:54.300
Paul Davis: But it seems like Jim is monitoring this the official calendar right Jim.

41
00:05:54.570 --> 00:05:57.120
james murez: yeah this, this is the calendar now.

42
00:05:57.150 --> 00:06:00.570
Joseph Murphy: If you're talking about never i've never had this trouble before.

43
00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:04.770
Joseph Murphy: I find posted on my thing it automatically goes on the calendar.

44
00:06:04.950 --> 00:06:07.650
james murez: I understand so here's the discussion forum.

45
00:06:08.940 --> 00:06:10.860
james murez: And if I scroll down here.

46
00:06:11.160 --> 00:06:11.550
yeah.

47
00:06:13.080 --> 00:06:18.240
james murez: You do have an agenda, but it was not posted on the calendars.

48
00:06:18.810 --> 00:06:20.250
Joseph Murphy: Jim this is new to me.

49
00:06:20.580 --> 00:06:25.260
Paul Davis: Okay, Jim, is it possible that that was an automatic function before, and that that got adjusted somehow.

50
00:06:26.400 --> 00:06:33.270
james murez: anything's possible the the the automatic function is when you post something.

51
00:06:35.760 --> 00:06:41.880
james murez: As an agenda item which is here it automatically goes to the calendar.

52
00:06:42.180 --> 00:06:44.910
Joseph Murphy: Now is the way it's been in the past it's always.

53
00:06:45.150 --> 00:06:51.210
james murez: Possible that when you are adding supporting documents you remove the calendar item.

54
00:06:51.780 --> 00:06:52.170
No.

55
00:06:53.250 --> 00:07:09.030
james murez: Well i'm just telling you Joe it ain't there now, so I don't know how it happened because the system doesn't keep track of that, but if I go to the calendar for January, which is the default one at this time on the 27th you can see it's not there.

56
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:18.840
Paul Davis: So, Jim it seems like the key for us in the future would be just we go look at this calendar once we think we posted our stuff and if it's there great and if it's not, we need to do more to assure that it gets there right.

57
00:07:19.140 --> 00:07:30.000
james murez: You know yeah I mean I don't know if this is the first time it's ever happened I wouldn't put too much emphasis on and i'm just mentioning it, because Joe called and said we're having a meeting you got to come started.

58
00:07:31.200 --> 00:07:37.080
james murez: So over here in this column on the homepage upcoming meetings and events.

59
00:07:37.260 --> 00:07:50.820
james murez: right also does not show here, this is automatically generated by the other calendar page So if you want more participation in your in your meetings you definitely want them to show up on the calendar.

60
00:07:51.180 --> 00:07:53.640
james murez: there's no actual requirement for them to.

61
00:07:53.640 --> 00:08:06.240
james murez: Be on the calendar, they only have to be posted on the the agenda only has to be posted on the web page, which is what it is, but it's a good idea to have it on the calendar so everybody knows that it's an existing.

62
00:08:06.450 --> 00:08:13.290
Paul Davis: Well, it seems easy we're just going to take more pain to make sure that in these locations, it has shown up in the future and that shouldn't be very hard.

63
00:08:13.500 --> 00:08:23.460
james murez: yeah, this is the first time i've seen it happen, where there was a meeting that was scheduled and I didn't show up on the calendar, so my only guess is is it somehow.

64
00:08:24.420 --> 00:08:33.450
james murez: The calendar item got removed, there is a switch that when you're on the back end creating calendar items, you can have it say show on calendar.

65
00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:34.110
james murez: And it's.

66
00:08:34.260 --> 00:08:40.230
james murez: The default is yes it's impossible that it was switched to know and it didn't generate the calendar entry.

67
00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:45.300
Paul Davis: In some mysterious way well Okay, so I think the key now is we're here we have the meeting we, and we should.

68
00:08:46.170 --> 00:08:50.430
james murez: yeah no you're good you're good to go you're good to go, so what i'm going to do right now, now that we've.

69
00:08:50.430 --> 00:09:02.940
james murez: gotten through my screen sharing i'm going to stop sharing my screen i'm going to promote you Paul to be host of the meeting, and then you guys take it on from here on, and do whatever you know you have your hand up Paul.

70
00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:05.010
Paul Davis: Okay i'm going to lower my hand right now.

71
00:09:05.130 --> 00:09:06.330
Paul Davis: Okay, and.

72
00:09:07.170 --> 00:09:10.320
Paul Davis: Joe do you know how to promote people because I guess maybe i'll see how.

73
00:09:10.380 --> 00:09:13.020
james murez: I do it you'll see how i'll stay on the meeting for a.

74
00:09:13.020 --> 00:09:19.920
james murez: Second, so you can see, and I can walk you through once I assign you as host so i'm going to make you host right now okay right.

75
00:09:22.710 --> 00:09:24.270
james murez: So you just became host.

76
00:09:24.420 --> 00:09:36.870
Paul Davis: Okay, I see So is there a distinction between oh yeah I see allowed to talk is is is a neighbor that we want to have talk and we're happy to do that, of course, and then people who are on our committee we can promote them using the more command.

77
00:09:37.170 --> 00:09:39.060
Paul Davis: Yes, I see it, right here.

78
00:09:39.300 --> 00:09:42.660
Paul Davis: Okay, I want to say hello to Mike Robin Mike thanks for joining us.

79
00:09:44.100 --> 00:09:45.840
james murez: Mike is also a board member.

80
00:09:47.280 --> 00:09:56.670
james murez: So this was I didn't I didn't look at the top of your agenda, but if you posted it as a joint meeting he's allowed automatically to become a panelist.

81
00:09:57.060 --> 00:10:03.600
Paul Davis: that's great and I just made them a panelist and and though i'm Joe I don't think this is a joint meeting, or is it what I didn't know.

82
00:10:03.660 --> 00:10:04.950
Joseph Murphy: Yes, it is, it is.

83
00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:13.050
Paul Davis: Well mike's fully with us, and we have now reagan's a panelist and Robin is a panelist Is that correct.

84
00:10:13.560 --> 00:10:14.490
Joseph Murphy: nurses here.

85
00:10:14.820 --> 00:10:16.200
Paul Davis: baylor she's is a panelist.

86
00:10:18.000 --> 00:10:18.780
Paul Davis: And Robin.

87
00:10:19.830 --> 00:10:22.710
james murez: yeah you just need to have quorum to be able to start your meeting.

88
00:10:22.980 --> 00:10:24.990
Paul Davis: All right, we're we're gonna we're going to start.

89
00:10:25.470 --> 00:10:27.360
james murez: Do you know how many people are on your committee.

90
00:10:27.690 --> 00:10:30.780
james murez: Six so for would be a quorum.

91
00:10:32.790 --> 00:10:36.630
Paul Davis: So, Joe and I were news and Reagan are here and we have a quarter.

92
00:10:36.990 --> 00:10:39.270
james murez: Perfect alright i'm going to say goodbye goodnight everyone.

93
00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:40.110
Paul Davis: audios Thank you.

94
00:10:40.140 --> 00:10:41.880
james murez: i'll watch the video replay.

95
00:10:42.090 --> 00:10:46.890
Paul Davis: I appreciate it and Joe Robin is a panelist Is that correct.

96
00:10:48.570 --> 00:10:51.450
Joseph Murphy: Robin can join the meeting she's not she's not.

97
00:10:52.800 --> 00:11:05.760
Joseph Murphy: i'm confused, we have we we have voting members, and there are other Members that are here that can can show up but that doesn't make them voting members.

98
00:11:06.060 --> 00:11:13.680
Paul Davis: No that's true, but I think in a meeting this size and with the contributions that people like Robin have been making it's it's good to let her talk is that fair.

99
00:11:14.430 --> 00:11:15.870
Joseph Murphy: No that's fine okay.

100
00:11:16.770 --> 00:11:32.040
Paul Davis: Alright, so the bottom line is most of us so far here our panelists and we have a few calling folks and Annie jump visanthe Hello Danny welcome to you guys and I think we're about to call this meeting to order Joe you comfortable with that.

101
00:11:32.070 --> 00:11:32.430
Joseph Murphy: yeah.

102
00:11:32.850 --> 00:11:33.780
Joseph Murphy: that's I call it to order.

103
00:11:33.870 --> 00:11:39.930
Paul Davis: One super okay guys well thanks so much for coming and we've gotten past a few minor administrative hurdles and here we are.

104
00:11:41.100 --> 00:11:47.550
Paul Davis: So thank you again for being here and i'm going to share the screen and we can look at the agenda that Joe has sent us all.

105
00:11:48.840 --> 00:12:01.380
Paul Davis: For a moment here and and guys, I think the key to this agenda is that we are now called to order, and I think really our main goal tonight is to talk about.

106
00:12:01.800 --> 00:12:10.470
Paul Davis: The future of the dfc and some of the things we're focused on and will be focused on going ahead, as well as a little bit of organizational structure topic stuff right Joe.

107
00:12:11.100 --> 00:12:13.500
Joseph Murphy: that's right, I suggest you bring up that.

108
00:12:15.270 --> 00:12:15.870
Paul Davis: list.

109
00:12:16.470 --> 00:12:25.380
Paul Davis: yeah perfect okay so guys what what we've done here, and I think some of you have seen this in your emails is, we have made first kind of a long.

110
00:12:25.920 --> 00:12:35.910
Paul Davis: list of sort of you know chat topics to talk about things to consider together and we have been batting around here amongst ourselves a tiny bit and then and that's a you know talk that.

111
00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:45.720
Paul Davis: Joe and joelle and john pollock and I had a last week or so, and then we just still those items which you have seen a copy of in an earlier email.

112
00:12:45.990 --> 00:12:51.780
Paul Davis: down to about four talking points, which is, I think, seeing on your screen here you guys see these for talking points now.

113
00:12:52.320 --> 00:13:06.210
Paul Davis: On a page called proposed talking points yeah super Okay, so the thought was that you know we might be able to kind of clump things we're all getting into a little bit into four broad topics and chat about them a bit today.

114
00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:13.500
Paul Davis: And I think you know something that we know, has been on joe's mind for a while, is his interest in having a.

115
00:13:13.950 --> 00:13:25.230
Paul Davis: shifted role or feeling a little less burdened and part of that is because he wants to spend time with his family and his grandkids and part of it is that I think he just has done a lot for a long time, and he feels like.

116
00:13:25.800 --> 00:13:28.800
Paul Davis: chilling a bit, as we say, might be a good thing is that right Joe.

117
00:13:29.280 --> 00:13:41.970
Joseph Murphy: I that's right now so i'm getting harder of hearing, so I can interrupt I need to have people and I didn't need to need to hear what they say interpreted, for me, because I can.

118
00:13:43.170 --> 00:13:47.070
Joseph Murphy: And, and it just slows me down i've just appreciate what paul's doing now.

119
00:13:47.940 --> 00:13:53.910
Paul Davis: All right, well, I certainly am happy to be a loud talker here and try to facilitate communication so but but Joe.

120
00:13:55.020 --> 00:14:03.510
Paul Davis: I mean so as you guys probably know we've had this little setup for a while, where Joe and I and joelle Dumas have been co chairs of this little Group and

121
00:14:03.870 --> 00:14:08.310
Paul Davis: Joe has been kind of our founder and in maine administrative and spiritual leader.

122
00:14:08.760 --> 00:14:19.260
Paul Davis: And I think Joe has had a feeling that it'd be nice to have that burden share a little more to kind of move into a slightly less demanding role and so joelle and Joe and john.

123
00:14:19.860 --> 00:14:31.410
Paul Davis: All these jays were chatting about that recently, and I think that joelle and john and I all feel like we're occupied enough with things in life that it's hard to accept kind of bear the mantle of being you know the.

124
00:14:31.830 --> 00:14:49.530
Paul Davis: Big cheese and our little dfc So the question tonight is whether I think Joe it's safe to say whether there's anyone else, we all know and who joins us here who might be interested in in a kind of a leadership role in this little group well, a joint.

125
00:14:50.760 --> 00:14:56.730
Paul Davis: Co chair structure still continues to involve Joe joelle perhaps john we hope and think and me.

126
00:14:58.170 --> 00:15:02.220
Paul Davis: Who would like to chat about that a bit or say anything about that topic, you need any any thoughts.

127
00:15:06.000 --> 00:15:07.080
Paul Davis: Yes, is that Reagan.

128
00:15:08.070 --> 00:15:10.110
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Yes, Okay, yes i'm sorry.

129
00:15:11.160 --> 00:15:20.790
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I don't have covert a tested negative, but I do have a bit of a cough and so i'm not going to talk that much, but I totally hear.

130
00:15:21.990 --> 00:15:41.520
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: What Joe is is asking for and very much understand it, and it makes a lot of sense, I must say that I am not in the position to step up, though, I would like to to into such a role, because I am having a hard time.

131
00:15:44.040 --> 00:16:00.960
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: i'm handling my responsibilities and feeling like i'm dropping the ball a bit on my responsibilities as politic co chair of a nonprofit co op where it seems like i'm the only one, or one of the few who still kind of hanging in as the coach here, so I feel like.

132
00:16:02.220 --> 00:16:15.540
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: So I just wanted to say i'm sorry that i'm not volunteering if I didn't have this other thing on my plate I would be Maybe someone who would consider such a thing, but I can't at this point.

133
00:16:16.590 --> 00:16:18.510
Paul Davis: Was sweet of you to say those things, I think.

134
00:16:19.020 --> 00:16:19.440
Joseph Murphy: Thank you.

135
00:16:20.040 --> 00:16:27.930
Paul Davis: You would be an exemplary candidate Reagan there's no doubt about it but it's clear that these are times that are involved, a lot of commitments and it's hard to get it all done that's for sure.

136
00:16:29.100 --> 00:16:31.230
Paul Davis: guys one thing i'll say real quick is that Joe.

137
00:16:31.620 --> 00:16:41.550
Paul Davis: You know, he two of the main things he's done is to do research in the press about things that are interesting topics to us all and to keep us posted on things that could be subjects for our.

138
00:16:41.880 --> 00:16:49.440
Paul Davis: You know kind of engagement, but he also has mean any any makes maintains files of his research, but he also has.

139
00:16:50.310 --> 00:17:05.010
Paul Davis: You know, maintain a mailing list and distributed some of the mailings I think he's happy to keep doing some of those things and absolutely remain with us as as kind of the conscience and founding world of guider of this endeavor so he's going to be around.

140
00:17:06.030 --> 00:17:08.640
Paul Davis: And we love that any other thoughts.

141
00:17:13.140 --> 00:17:13.860
Paul Davis: How are you feeling.

142
00:17:16.950 --> 00:17:18.270
Paul Davis: I think you're muted merriment if.

143
00:17:26.520 --> 00:17:32.190
Mehrnoosh: Thank you i'm i'm feeling fine I always love to join the meetings.

144
00:17:33.360 --> 00:17:42.960
Mehrnoosh: If I wanted, I mean me load issues that we bring up is has I, my feeling is it relates to urban design issues.

145
00:17:44.490 --> 00:18:02.760
Mehrnoosh: And the question is, but that takes up the whole different agendas and different communities and what's good for everywhere, and I know like you know we're talking about kids when it go and that make sense, what i'm saying it gets complicated.

146
00:18:03.930 --> 00:18:10.350
Paul Davis: you're saying that we have broad concerns that from your perspective, many of them re to relate to urban design is that is that right.

147
00:18:10.470 --> 00:18:12.630
Mehrnoosh: Thank you, thank you for saying that yes.

148
00:18:13.110 --> 00:18:22.050
Paul Davis: No, I think you're right I think that's true and, as you know your urban designer and you find resonance in these issues, I think, because they occupy your thinking a lot.

149
00:18:23.130 --> 00:18:23.520
Paul Davis: that's a.

150
00:18:23.550 --> 00:18:25.200
Paul Davis: reason why it's great to have you with us here.

151
00:18:25.770 --> 00:18:38.700
Mehrnoosh: Thank you it's hard to it's hard to make it happen to i've done i've done few designs in there are around the area Venice is like making it up and it's like we have to find a way to do it, make it happen.

152
00:18:40.050 --> 00:18:44.670
Paul Davis: I, by the way, I think it's um we can talk more about this, as we continue ahead, but I think it's.

153
00:18:45.000 --> 00:19:00.870
Paul Davis: it's also true that we were hearing from other folks and when we last met about you know the key relevance of Interior design and everything we're doing here and it's it's true that it is key there's, no doubt, I mean Robin made it.

154
00:19:01.890 --> 00:19:10.290
Paul Davis: reminded us, and a lot of ways, about some of the key things we could do here that that have a lot to do with urban design that are probably not really integral to the work of the other committee, so I think we.

155
00:19:10.680 --> 00:19:14.970
Paul Davis: We all came away from last meeting convinced that those are key focuses of ours in the future.

156
00:19:17.070 --> 00:19:23.790
Paul Davis: I see a hand raised by hold on one moment okay well i'm sorry yeah we can go ahead and then I think we have a hand raised on the part of me.

157
00:19:24.600 --> 00:19:34.800
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: So we'll call her vendor if I was just wondering if there might be some additional Community Members who would be very good to invite.

158
00:19:35.970 --> 00:19:41.010
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: They may also be very busy but, for example, someone who comes to mind to me is.

159
00:19:43.740 --> 00:19:46.740
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: lori Shapiro or her husband.

160
00:19:47.760 --> 00:20:01.500
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: rabbi lori Shapiro or has been true because you know who runs the electric lodge and the open temple just because their parents have two kids and.

161
00:20:02.520 --> 00:20:14.730
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: They probably they probably are pretty busy yes, she is the Rabbi of congregation but seems like they could offer good input if they were not willing to join us once a month for one of them, maybe.

162
00:20:15.150 --> 00:20:18.270
Paul Davis: You know it's a great suggestion I think i'm laurie was.

163
00:20:19.140 --> 00:20:28.320
Paul Davis: We were very much kind of a big touch with her through the mailing list and talking about meetings and stuff and, if I recall, she was on a number of occasions, she wanted to come and just found herself to be so.

164
00:20:28.710 --> 00:20:36.390
Paul Davis: embedded in her action that she wasn't able to join us much, and I that that may still be the case, but it's I think it's a good good thing to think about.

165
00:20:37.410 --> 00:20:49.710
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: And I think, maybe thinking about who else is very involved locally, you know with kids who might be able to add some additional energy, you know, the way that joelle does.

166
00:20:50.520 --> 00:20:59.040
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: A job was just joelle is very involved in the Community, but maybe there's some other people like that, who could be very good additions.

167
00:20:59.970 --> 00:21:03.210
Paul Davis: Why don't we um I think that's a great point and and, by the way, I think.

168
00:21:03.450 --> 00:21:10.320
Paul Davis: we'll go to Andy here, but I think one of the things that we can all have in mind is that this is something that is you know, this is our first kind of public discussion on this topic and I.

169
00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:25.410
Paul Davis: My guess is that Joe isn't feeling like he has to disappear tomorrow morning I think if we start a discussion about this and have in mind the idea of giving him some peace through a tiny bit of additional well less responsibility that's a good thing right Joe.

170
00:21:26.040 --> 00:21:35.280
Joseph Murphy: that's true and I like the idea of adding people to the can you know participate and could be helpful.

171
00:21:36.060 --> 00:21:37.200
Joseph Murphy: Yes, okay.

172
00:21:37.980 --> 00:21:39.720
Joseph Murphy: So Reagan suggestions are.

173
00:21:40.740 --> 00:21:41.460
Joseph Murphy: are valuable.

-Annie Jump- Vicente: yeah.

188
00:23:08.040 --> 00:23:18.780
Paul Davis: What um so, in your capacity are there other committees or other local groups that you are engaged with or that you help out with and what kinds of things do you do i'm just kind of curious about how the role might work.

189
00:23:19.290 --> 00:23:35.400
-Annie Jump- Vicente: I saw I was a while I attended the homeless committee meeting the other night and oh boy was I didn't trust me I yeah it was it was exciting and you know I I didn't offer my objections or.

190
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:46.560

191
00:23:47.460 --> 00:23:54.240
-Annie Jump- Vicente: And soon as I heard you speaking, you have to say plenty background, as do I, and it makes me feel very.

192
00:23:54.870 --> 00:24:00.150
-Annie Jump- Vicente: very pleased to know that you know, there are other city planners on on these things, because that is.

193
00:24:00.810 --> 00:24:10.470
-Annie Jump- Vicente: You know I, personally, I feel like city planning is probably the biggest issue that we have in this entire country, making sure that you know we have homeless issues.

194
00:24:10.920 --> 00:24:19.290
-Annie Jump- Vicente: resolved and traffic issues resolved and things like that getting more safe places for people to congregate and be be people.

-Annie Jump- Vicente: Three times a week Monday Wednesday Friday talking with people, so you can catch me there between nine and 10 to 12 you know, depending on which I talk to people.

203
00:25:22.680 --> 00:25:29.880
Paul Davis: So maybe you're like the local eyes ears and feet of the counselor's office is that roughly the case Okay, yes.

Paul Davis: We have a panelist named Robin who's here who hasn't said anything yet Robin would you like to say anything so far in our meeting.

209
00:25:59.490 --> 00:26:01.350
Robin Murez: Oh, good evening.

Robin Murez: So um.

213
00:26:25.590 --> 00:26:37.140
Robin Murez: yeah I mean sent him my condolences and I think that we all would be fine with a BA speak just for myself, I can't say we all but.

214
00:26:39.000 --> 00:26:48.210
Robin Murez: If he needs to leave, I think that it might be best for his family and his health, and I would be fine with that think.

215
00:26:49.290 --> 00:26:57.030
Robin Murez: CD 11 would be very well served to not have him in the position he is in.

216
00:26:57.570 --> 00:27:13.230
-Annie Jump- Vicente: Sure, and you know until December 1 when when I also get the boot from my position you know i'll be i'll be i'll be helping you guys out as much as possible, you know, whatever you know, whatever feelings people have towards Mike to me it's regardless i'm here to help you guys out.

217
00:27:14.760 --> 00:27:31.710
Robin Murez: You know just say it's not it's not about feelings it's about our Community, and you know we're talking about urban planning and design and it's about the function and the health and the safety and the livability of our community that I raised that point so and his own health.

218
00:27:32.970 --> 00:27:34.140
Robin Murez: So um.

219
00:27:35.250 --> 00:27:36.450
Robin Murez: yeah I think that.

220
00:27:38.100 --> 00:27:39.510
Robin Murez: just wanted to say that.

221
00:27:39.690 --> 00:27:47.820
Paul Davis: I mean I can't imagine how hard it is for him to occupy that role in this political climate, so i'm I just heard him on the radio talking briefly today, they were playing.

222
00:27:48.270 --> 00:28:00.240
Paul Davis: I think, in case, our w his his statement about is not running again and I think we can all imagine how it could be really hard to want to do his job, again, I mean it doesn't sound like the funnest thing.

223
00:28:01.140 --> 00:28:07.350
Paul Davis: So I don't I don't blame a bit, and I wish him well I think he's a good man from what I know man let's go ahead.

224
00:28:08.040 --> 00:28:12.990
Mehrnoosh: And like to get in his way to connect to um.

Mike Bravo: Hello how's everybody doing Happy New Year i'm just trying to kind of.

230
00:28:35.970 --> 00:28:46.860
Mike Bravo: dnc has been on for what like five months now something like that, since August, so I haven't got a chance to really you know venture out into the different committees, and you know just you know, have a little presidents and.

231
00:28:47.970 --> 00:28:54.510
Mike Bravo: You know, contribute a little bit so just Hello Happy New to everybody, and I just want to offer real quick to on the.

232
00:28:55.800 --> 00:29:09.990
Mike Bravo: As far as you know, some of the participation for this committee to maybe maybe work with the outreach committee and maybe find a way to kind of see no connection little advertisement some social media bump to kind of know encourage people to.

233
00:29:11.190 --> 00:29:20.610
Mike Bravo: participate, I think this is really good for the purpose of kind of maybe getting people getting their Vinci feet wet, so to speak, you know it's nice mellow.

234
00:29:22.170 --> 00:29:24.540
Mike Bravo: You know not so volatiles.

235
00:29:25.410 --> 00:29:31.980
Mike Bravo: You know environment compared the other means that we have sometimes so you know it's a good looks nice little intro for people who might want to be.

236
00:29:32.790 --> 00:29:40.680
Mike Bravo: You know, to participate, you know, in the dnc and represent and stuff like that I think could be really good to kind of work with them and kind of put them to work because.

237
00:29:41.670 --> 00:29:41.910
Joseph Murphy: All.

238
00:29:41.940 --> 00:29:48.600
Mike Bravo: They could you know I always just not too great, these days, but yeah just one offer that as far as participation goes and just say hello.

239
00:29:48.990 --> 00:29:50.670
Paul Davis: Very good Mike Thank you.

240
00:29:51.360 --> 00:29:51.990
Paul Davis: Yes, thank you.

241
00:29:52.140 --> 00:29:55.800
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: And and, by the way, Mike I think you're Harris looking really good if he stays.

242
00:29:57.540 --> 00:29:58.920
Mike Bravo: Thank you i'm a better today.

243
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:01.650
Mike Bravo: sounds good, thank you.

244
00:30:01.980 --> 00:30:04.350
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I think he looks fancy now sometimes you don't watch it.

245
00:30:04.350 --> 00:30:08.220
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: One one doesn't wash it for a few days that's what people say Oh, it looks the best you know when.

246
00:30:10.380 --> 00:30:14.640
Paul Davis: They go all right, Joe yes go ahead and the weekend go to our next item go ahead, Joe.

247
00:30:14.820 --> 00:30:24.510
Joseph Murphy: I think it might be helpful at this point to bring up the matrix that you had been because that shows how it relates to the entire board to.

248
00:30:24.570 --> 00:30:31.620
Paul Davis: Absolutely so guys like the next little item we were going to get into here a bit it's just the process of are talking more about what we want to focus on and.

249
00:30:32.040 --> 00:30:39.570
Paul Davis: I think you guys recall, maybe that when we were last together, we had an exhibit me see if I can find that here that.

250
00:30:39.930 --> 00:30:50.910
Paul Davis: We had assembled it was just meant to kind of help us talk about things that other groups do already as a means of deciding what we might want to focus on and.

251
00:30:51.300 --> 00:30:59.700
Paul Davis: So we thought that we could chat about this a tiny bit more today, and I think my recollection from our last meeting was that, in particular, Robin was talking about local.

252
00:31:00.810 --> 00:31:09.150
Paul Davis: I think urban design and kind of quality of living and kind of public assistive measures that might make this a nicer place to be.

253
00:31:09.570 --> 00:31:14.610
Paul Davis: That wouldn't really necessarily be handled by anyone else in among the committee's, at least not as a primary focus.

254
00:31:15.420 --> 00:31:20.730
Paul Davis: So I think we talked about some of those things, and I think they felt like important initiatives and.

255
00:31:21.210 --> 00:31:30.450
Paul Davis: We were talking i'll just say, the last thing I want to say at the moment, but when Joe and I and joelle and john were talking there's always the question of how much we get involved in homelessness and.

256
00:31:31.530 --> 00:31:40.470
Paul Davis: Questions of zoning and just how to help people have better housing opportunities in Venice and beyond, and that is a very personal cause of joe's.

257
00:31:41.340 --> 00:31:56.430
Paul Davis: And I think it's always good for us as a group, to talk about you know kind of everything else that we might do versus say homelessness and zoning so Joe do you want to say anything specifically on that front as as others get ready to contribute as well.

258
00:31:57.120 --> 00:32:04.140
Joseph Murphy: Now I I you stay my position pretty well ball so i'll leave it at that, I do have.

259
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:09.750
Joseph Murphy: Concerns about not limited in ourselves to.

260
00:32:11.130 --> 00:32:13.260
Joseph Murphy: Only Venice as the.

261
00:32:16.320 --> 00:32:18.030
Joseph Murphy: Well, I don't know how to put this but.

262
00:32:19.620 --> 00:32:32.100
Joseph Murphy: there's issues that that involve Venice that could really be affecting the entire city and in the county and beyond, and I don't want to shy away from those issues.

263
00:32:33.870 --> 00:32:40.650
Joseph Murphy: Simply because not not I don't want to shy away from those issues, arguing that it is.

264
00:32:42.690 --> 00:32:50.880
Joseph Murphy: Not a vendor session, so it is a business issue, in my opinion, so I just don't want to narrow our scope that's all.

265
00:32:53.850 --> 00:33:02.970
Robin Murez: i'll just jump in there and say I think you're absolutely right, Joe and that that's one of the problems that we face is that.

266
00:33:04.890 --> 00:33:07.350
Robin Murez: Venice has been treated.

267
00:33:09.030 --> 00:33:09.750
Robin Murez: As.

268
00:33:11.280 --> 00:33:14.610
Robin Murez: What the main location for.

269
00:33:16.350 --> 00:33:20.610
Robin Murez: housing and encampments and that kind of thing for.

270
00:33:22.800 --> 00:33:30.540
Robin Murez: People lower income and affordable housing and homelessness and and there's like total.

271
00:33:31.920 --> 00:33:49.590
Robin Murez: Lack of communication and knowledge of people in what's going on in the other sections of CD 11 and for example there's always that great example of we've got 500 acres of open space by la X.

272
00:33:49.980 --> 00:34:00.450
Robin Murez: That 340 of them, the plan that Council person bond and has is called la X North side it's to build a.

273
00:34:01.020 --> 00:34:23.940
Robin Murez: mega billion dollar office park with zero housing and the fact that that could be built at the same time that there was so much increase density being planned for Venice and being built in Venice is to me completely outrageous and unreasonable and foolish.

274
00:34:25.050 --> 00:34:40.710
Robin Murez: You know that there are other parts of CD 11 that need to have housing and so yeah we shouldn't be only looking at Venice, because it completely skews our view of.

275
00:34:41.520 --> 00:34:53.730
Robin Murez: Of what's what options, there are what's possible and what's what makes sense, every neighborhood should have people of every economic level, it makes every neighborhood healthier and.

276
00:34:54.240 --> 00:35:07.710
Robin Murez: You know it, it reduces transportation issues it works in every way and what we're experiencing is just in my mind completely outrageous Lee poor urban planning.

277
00:35:09.000 --> 00:35:09.450
Paul Davis: So.

278
00:35:09.510 --> 00:35:10.260
Robin Murez: I agree, Joe.

279
00:35:11.070 --> 00:35:11.970
Mehrnoosh: I agree to.

280
00:35:13.650 --> 00:35:14.400
Mehrnoosh: Good points.

281
00:35:14.610 --> 00:35:15.690
Paul Davis: Reagan go ahead.

282
00:35:16.860 --> 00:35:30.330
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: um I I think I disagree, if I have tried to i've tried to understand the focus of this subcommittee because my understanding of the focus of this subcommittee.

283
00:35:32.310 --> 00:35:38.040
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: was on issues of making and I may be wrong, was on issues of making.

284
00:35:40.860 --> 00:35:54.270
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Issues a make various things affecting livability for families and stuff so of course and housed and all those issues that the city that Venice and the city has are definitely.

285
00:35:55.500 --> 00:36:01.050
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Totally related I agree with you, Robin and everyone about that, but I kind of felt that.

286
00:36:02.670 --> 00:36:12.660
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Since you have like a homeless committee or you have this or that committee, am I mistaken that this committee was supposed to be focusing on trying to make.

287
00:36:13.260 --> 00:36:23.100
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: On issues that are specifically related to how families, making Venice better for family so, of course, those are related issues, but I think if we.

288
00:36:23.490 --> 00:36:42.000
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: start, I feel like if we wanted to discuss whatever micro housing like Joe was proposing we we we we did a measure last year to say, we support the mini housing or we support this or that permanent housing, I feel like those statements.

289
00:36:43.530 --> 00:36:51.780
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: would be better if we joined another if we went and participated, even on a one time basis on another committee, but please explain to me.

290
00:36:53.010 --> 00:37:10.440
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Joe or Paul or anyone who knows this committee better if i'm mistaken, that this is really a discussion committee of anything we choose to discuss, or is it really a focus i'm not looking at my notes, or is it more of a focus on on families.

291
00:37:12.180 --> 00:37:13.830
Joseph Murphy: survey that brings up the.

292
00:37:15.060 --> 00:37:27.750
Joseph Murphy: If we're going to talk about the mission of our committee, then we should be looking at the vision goals and the vision goals do cover a broad spectrum and they are not narrowed.

293
00:37:28.770 --> 00:37:31.080
Joseph Murphy: That was part of the problem with the.

294
00:37:33.540 --> 00:37:36.000
Joseph Murphy: Well, was recently.

295
00:37:38.070 --> 00:37:42.540
Joseph Murphy: The division goes to cover a broad spectrum of issues and.

296
00:37:42.570 --> 00:37:57.810
Joseph Murphy: Okay, the, the one that you're referring to in my mind is diversity and diversity, specifically mentioned economic diversity, and it also mentions affordable housing.

297
00:37:58.950 --> 00:38:00.750
Joseph Murphy: And so.

298
00:38:02.790 --> 00:38:05.520
Joseph Murphy: When you when you look at that, in the.

299
00:38:06.600 --> 00:38:07.230
Joseph Murphy: Broader.

300
00:38:10.890 --> 00:38:13.500
Joseph Murphy: See, instead of just at Venice.

301
00:38:14.910 --> 00:38:19.230
Joseph Murphy: Some of it applies to Venice and one of the reasons why we asked to get the.

302
00:38:20.820 --> 00:38:22.110
Joseph Murphy: The data on.

303
00:38:24.030 --> 00:38:24.330
Joseph Murphy: On.

304
00:38:25.470 --> 00:38:33.750
Joseph Murphy: What we're responsible for in terms of the permanent housing, as opposed to the temporary housing, which is, I think what you were referring to.

305
00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:39.300
Joseph Murphy: Then, once we know what that is that, then it gives us.

306
00:38:40.920 --> 00:38:48.120
Joseph Murphy: The framework in which, in which to decide how to move forward with that we don't have that information yet.

307
00:38:49.080 --> 00:39:02.790
Joseph Murphy: And i'm not sure that it's possible we didn't we didn't know that we're going to be responsible for some of that the question is how we're going to accommodate that responsibility and that's that's.

308
00:39:03.930 --> 00:39:09.030
Joseph Murphy: The same question same question that every every.

309
00:39:10.050 --> 00:39:20.130
Joseph Murphy: neighborhood Council and the city has and every community in the city has and i'm very conscious of that and it's it's something that I think we have to pay attention to.

310
00:39:20.700 --> 00:39:20.880
Paul Davis: me.

311
00:39:20.910 --> 00:39:35.070
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I think you also looking for clarifying, thank you for clarifying so I missed I I see I was mistaken that I thought there was an I forgot the the the MIT I thought the mission of this committee West.

312
00:39:35.490 --> 00:39:52.680
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Or the various points were all related to families in Venice or children in Venice or whatever, but it seems like it's broader so it's so I guess, I was just asking isn't there redundancy that if we are addressing a bunch of different things that are you know.

313
00:39:52.950 --> 00:39:56.580
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: That there's other committees of the dnc that are specifically focused on.

314
00:39:57.210 --> 00:39:58.710
Joseph Murphy: other committees can be wrong.

315
00:40:00.120 --> 00:40:07.800
Paul Davis: Well, no, but I think Reagan you're totally right, this is a discussion, we have to reach some kind of conclusion on but we're definitely talking a lot about it it's it's really the matter of.

316
00:40:08.130 --> 00:40:15.840
Paul Davis: Should we devote our our our resources to topics that other committees are more centrally charged with dealing with like homelessness.

317
00:40:16.530 --> 00:40:23.610
Paul Davis: or whether we try to fill gaps, you know do things that kind of fill gaps between the things that other committees, mostly focus on, and I think.

318
00:40:24.060 --> 00:40:30.630
Paul Davis: That we have this kind of broad charge here to to work in keeping with these vision goals, and I think the focus on children.

319
00:40:30.900 --> 00:40:36.810
Paul Davis: I think we've seen that as kind of an overarching umbrella that we would like a lot of our work, if not all of it to relate to.

320
00:40:37.620 --> 00:40:41.520
Paul Davis: But I think there's kind of movement here among among us to.

321
00:40:42.150 --> 00:40:55.440
Paul Davis: be very specific about whether and how we deal with homelessness because it's just being handled so much by so many other forces, I think we have to just be strategic about how we grapple with things like that which are you know other people are spending a lot of effort and time on.

322
00:40:55.770 --> 00:41:02.700
Joseph Murphy: i'd like to respond, further to reagan's comment because she's she has her I, if you look at the focus on children.

323
00:41:04.110 --> 00:41:07.320
Joseph Murphy: The division, called the vote focus on children that.

324
00:41:08.610 --> 00:41:10.860
Joseph Murphy: inherently is.

325
00:41:12.810 --> 00:41:18.840
Joseph Murphy: Related to all of the other vision goals, because I could read it, I can't quite read it.

326
00:41:20.910 --> 00:41:24.480
Paul Davis: I can make it bigger you want me to read, I can read a Joel so I read it, Joe.

327
00:41:26.220 --> 00:41:27.750
Paul Davis: I can also blow it up, let me think.

328
00:41:28.230 --> 00:41:30.210
Joseph Murphy: If states, I can see it.

329
00:41:31.740 --> 00:41:33.240
Joseph Murphy: include this vision.

330
00:41:34.770 --> 00:41:54.600
Joseph Murphy: This focus on children as an integral part of the consideration of strategies in all of the below vision goals, in other words, every one of these other committees as insofar as they're focusing on one any one of these vision goals is required, at least according to this.

331
00:41:55.680 --> 00:42:14.400
Joseph Murphy: mission this vision goals to focus on its impact on children and to me, that means the impact on on their families and the communities in which the children live, and you know you can take any one of these things and and.

332
00:42:16.260 --> 00:42:19.650
Joseph Murphy: You know, start talking about urban design and.

333
00:42:20.700 --> 00:42:23.700
Joseph Murphy: Which Mariusz has focused on and.

334
00:42:25.680 --> 00:42:33.930
Joseph Murphy: The the poverty that creates and the zoning laws that created some of the gentrification problems we're having.

335
00:42:35.070 --> 00:42:51.930
Joseph Murphy: Throughout the city it's it's it's it's hard to disentangle these things when you're talking about any one of them, you have to you have to consider the broader picture or you're just you're just sort of talking in the in the wind.

336
00:42:52.470 --> 00:43:01.080
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: joey I think that if I think and, by the way, Paul i'm really appreciating out you're summarizing this this very clear and and really.

337
00:43:02.010 --> 00:43:10.710
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Well done, I want to say I agree with you, Joe that the broader picture, and I think if we have the.

338
00:43:11.430 --> 00:43:18.780
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Underlying focus that we're looking at this issues with the idea of children and families.

339
00:43:19.170 --> 00:43:33.420
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: in Venice so that may be a little bit of a different angle, or a specific focus, so if we're looking at issues of the House, we may be, if we're keeping at it if we're keeping in mind how does this relate.

340
00:43:33.480 --> 00:43:35.310
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: to children and families and benefits.

341
00:43:35.640 --> 00:43:35.880
Paul Davis: yeah.

342
00:43:35.970 --> 00:43:39.270
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: That could be the angle that we're looking at these broader issue, so that we don't.

343
00:43:39.270 --> 00:43:40.470
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: just get into redundant.

344
00:43:40.740 --> 00:43:43.290
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Things like for me right now, for example.

345
00:43:44.460 --> 00:43:46.080
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: As a as a you know.

346
00:43:47.550 --> 00:43:59.520
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: You know, over a decade mom in Venice who used to really enjoy the library with lots of families going to live for library events now those families.

347
00:44:00.030 --> 00:44:10.980
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: It also because of covert or primarily because of public but also now because of the encampment that has developed since the beach was cleared off so now there's an encampment and centennial park.

348
00:44:11.640 --> 00:44:25.080
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Children people aren't feeling safe to go to the library and so anything that the library, the library used to be such a focus like farmers market for families in Venice so to me if I were looking at.

349
00:44:27.450 --> 00:44:32.400
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Things having to do is just having to do with the House to me when you are.

350
00:44:33.870 --> 00:44:46.170
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: In addition to the problem of recently there being a mom with a baby and a little kid crying at that in cabinet, you know living at that encampment that's a family issue, but also when you have issues of.

351
00:44:46.620 --> 00:45:00.030
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Children not being able to walk you know between whatever lemonade and up the street to spark and stuff So those are kind of like I would be, I guess, I would focus on it, how is it impacting children and families in Venice.

352
00:45:00.570 --> 00:45:07.560
Paul Davis: I think that's a great point I don't I think we almost get shut down automatically in three minutes now, and I think joelle is here with us and.

353
00:45:09.540 --> 00:45:11.340
Paul Davis: Getting but Joe would you like to say something.

354
00:45:12.240 --> 00:45:23.130
Joelle: hey you know I am listening attentively to each of you, and I think that this show is so rushed in a way, you know so many different devil.

355
00:45:23.940 --> 00:45:27.510
Joelle: We could keep doing it again and again and again and again.

356
00:45:27.510 --> 00:45:33.090
Joelle: Without MED maybe at some point we will be progressing, excuse me hello, we.

357
00:45:34.740 --> 00:45:35.820
Joelle: Yes, well done.

358
00:45:37.980 --> 00:45:40.200
Joelle: didn't understand, which is OK OK.

359
00:45:41.130 --> 00:45:55.740
Joelle: OK so excuse me, so we could go, you know and grew and grew this remind me editor of an organization which is an international organization and in the in the field only of education so.

360
00:45:56.880 --> 00:46:08.490
Joelle: What they begin to do to treat education and what they want to do is provide education or create create create an APP for the poor children of.

361
00:46:09.540 --> 00:46:12.360
Joelle: Africa or even worse someplace.

362
00:46:13.410 --> 00:46:20.910
Joelle: Okay, so they treat up, but in fact the children have no computer have no nothing to use it up.

363
00:46:22.590 --> 00:46:23.550
Joelle: I think that.

364
00:46:25.260 --> 00:46:36.660
Joelle: In a way, you know when we sing about the children are very familiar with children, you know, one of the quality of the children they have combustion on patty that they carry.

365
00:46:37.230 --> 00:46:47.640
Joelle: themselves in a human being, by being human by becoming human but they'll figure it out, they bring people together, so we can see that there.

366
00:46:48.390 --> 00:46:55.350
Joelle: I can hear that there had the Center of your conversation, but then you see, we have we have survived, we have a high that.

367
00:46:55.680 --> 00:47:05.340
Joelle: Is the homeless encampment, you know as a beach, so we could not walk to the beach because he was so many homeless, for example, now we cannot walk to the library.

368
00:47:05.850 --> 00:47:17.430
Joelle: Though we are not really living in the 25th century in Los Angeles, I have a sense that we are living in the 14th century of middle aged century in the city of Paris.

369
00:47:18.030 --> 00:47:21.450
Joseph Murphy: Now i've been reading the Middle Ages and you're right you're right.

370
00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:47.220
Joelle: You see, so so know how are we going to speak about everything that is around us and then no yelling and German laughs and blah blah blah blah blah blah why we just not focus on some on some on some point the children, and it is the children that the progress are going to come.

371
00:47:49.020 --> 00:48:05.850
Joelle: You know, unless are you going to take them out, are you going to kill them, are you going to put them in hospital, are you okay I don't care about them less the only thing that I am focusing on is on the children, because by walking on the children it's going to transform the world.

372
00:48:08.790 --> 00:48:09.540
Joseph Murphy: So I would.

373
00:48:09.840 --> 00:48:11.340
Joseph Murphy: argue for I want to.

374
00:48:13.590 --> 00:48:14.340
Joelle: And what.

375
00:48:15.240 --> 00:48:20.940
Joseph Murphy: I did not understand everything you said there, so I feel like i'm really busy now.

376
00:48:21.150 --> 00:48:28.380
Paul Davis: So why don't I very quickly summarize loudly in our last second side does this mean and get turned off automatically or what's going to happen at 630 when we're there.

377
00:48:28.440 --> 00:48:30.900
Joseph Murphy: I think that we can go on.

378
00:48:31.110 --> 00:48:31.350
Paul Davis: All right.

379
00:48:31.560 --> 00:48:32.550
Joseph Murphy: Why don't we not sure.

380
00:48:32.850 --> 00:48:34.500
Joseph Murphy: If we will get cut off.

381
00:48:34.650 --> 00:48:38.850
Paul Davis: All right, no problem I think broadly joelle was saying very persuasively.

382
00:48:39.270 --> 00:48:48.330
Paul Davis: That you know we're all living in troubled times and the homelessness is a blight and it's very troublesome and we all love it we want to fix it, but no one knows how and.

383
00:48:48.660 --> 00:48:59.790
Paul Davis: You know it's it's gonna it's going to be taken care of maybe I think she was saying that our society and all of our concerns are are more directly treated.

384
00:49:00.270 --> 00:49:13.200
Paul Davis: If we focus on the children, I mean if we focus on the children, then in a single minded way, then we will that there'll be a radiance to that accomplishment of ours that will benefit broader.

385
00:49:14.130 --> 00:49:29.310
Paul Davis: issues and maybe ultimately help with the homeless, I think she's basically saying that we could get lost in homelessness issues rather than focusing directly on the children, and I think that's persuasive I mean I think they're vastly larger efforts very well funded.

386
00:49:29.670 --> 00:49:39.930
Paul Davis: You know either accomplishing things of the homeless or being stymied, but I just don't know how much we can really do to effectively grapple with that topic we can lose the forest for the trees, I think.

387
00:49:40.530 --> 00:49:52.650
Joelle: yeah exactly what they seem because between you and me, we have been we have we accomplished nothing for the children in the last six months, but we have been speaking a lot about.

388
00:49:53.100 --> 00:50:06.750
Joelle: them, let them, let them know that if we do for them listen, I mean it is such a problem sets but problem, why are we going to take, and our readings, you know this huge problem.

389
00:50:08.370 --> 00:50:10.980
Joelle: Related to related to the world.

390
00:50:12.300 --> 00:50:14.490
Robin Murez: I don't agree with that.

391
00:50:17.580 --> 00:50:18.630
Joelle: What do you do about it.

392
00:50:19.440 --> 00:50:21.060
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I totally agree with that.

393
00:50:21.120 --> 00:50:22.650
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I totally agree with joelle.

394
00:50:24.300 --> 00:50:27.330
Paul Davis: What are we hear from for one SEC she I think she has her hand up.

395
00:50:27.390 --> 00:50:28.260
Paul Davis: Is that right any Joe.

396
00:50:28.770 --> 00:50:29.850
-Annie Jump- Vicente: I yeah yeah.

397
00:50:31.110 --> 00:50:36.930
-Annie Jump- Vicente: yeah miss Davis, I definitely don't disagree with you, we should focus on children, I would just like to ask what about the homeless children.

398
00:50:38.220 --> 00:50:38.430
Joelle: Oh.

399
00:50:39.870 --> 00:50:41.160
Joelle: Jesus part of the.

Re(EE)gan Kibbee: bucket yes children to that every pot good children who are on house, the children knew our House.

401
00:50:47.400 --> 00:50:48.090
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: y'all see.

402
00:50:48.120 --> 00:50:49.140
Joelle: me yes.

403
00:50:49.200 --> 00:50:49.980
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I agree.

404
00:50:50.340 --> 00:50:52.800
-Annie Jump- Vicente: I just want to put that on radars to you know.

405
00:50:54.030 --> 00:50:58.380
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: that's what I that's what I read, I meant that's what I said I said in the.

406
00:50:59.190 --> 00:51:15.540
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: last few days, there was a mom it with a baby and a child and a young child crying for days in the Cabinet and across the street at the event at centennial park absolutely folks that's what i'm saying is, I see this as a lens to look at these other issues.

407
00:51:16.470 --> 00:51:24.180
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: The quality of life for children, the House and house children, you know here in Venice the safety bed.

408
00:51:24.270 --> 00:51:25.800
Joelle: bed bed bed began.

409
00:51:25.830 --> 00:51:33.360
Joelle: Excuse me to enter virtue, for example, with the committee with the Venice and, of course, education Committee, like every year.

410
00:51:33.630 --> 00:51:43.560
Joelle: We have been raising $5,000 you know school the students who's a community and this way, we have we have distributing the credit card of of.

411
00:51:44.130 --> 00:51:53.550
Joelle: The value of 20 dolla to the 370 homeless or Hannah was are living in the chest children of the community of Venus.

412
00:51:54.120 --> 00:52:03.090
Joelle: This is not very much Okay, but it is a little something for them, you lose them to go to spend 20 dolla whether you have never which tends to do anywhere.

413
00:52:03.660 --> 00:52:07.770
Joelle: And you make them related you know closer to the world in which we are leaving.

414
00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:19.680
Joelle: But when people ask me about the left, why I am not interested in this homeless or your mother interested in the children of the homeless or insert children.

415
00:52:19.980 --> 00:52:31.950
Joelle: who are living in condition of perverted wagon everything was going to be the next wave of ominous what do we do for them, except putting them in jail.

416
00:52:32.610 --> 00:52:34.020
Joseph Murphy: yeah that's.

417
00:52:34.110 --> 00:52:34.560
Paul Davis: wrong.

418
00:52:35.160 --> 00:52:39.780
Joseph Murphy: I mean it's a very complicated systemic.

419
00:52:40.170 --> 00:52:50.040
Joseph Murphy: yeah problem that goes, all the way to the roots of our society and I I see it that way and that's why I don't want to let go of the broader picture.

420
00:52:50.070 --> 00:52:51.840
Paul Davis: Okay, but Joel see I mean, I think.

421
00:52:51.990 --> 00:52:52.680
Joseph Murphy: I understand.

422
00:52:53.100 --> 00:52:55.260
Joseph Murphy: I understand what Joe Joel say.

423
00:52:55.770 --> 00:53:06.450
Paul Davis: Well, and the thing is, in our little group, the question is how much can we do to effectively address the most complicated systemic issues in society, my my I would say we can't do much, I think.

424
00:53:06.720 --> 00:53:15.660
Paul Davis: It might be smart for us to say that our litmus test for anything we do is can we most directly affect the plight or welfare of children and Venice because.

425
00:53:15.990 --> 00:53:25.290
Paul Davis: You know, we do risk very much getting lost here in circular in the conversations about what our priorities should be, and if we go to the.

426
00:53:25.650 --> 00:53:40.170
Paul Davis: Values goals that you set up the vision goals, Joe and we see that you're you know the umbrella you established is this this question of home of children, maybe that just becomes are very clear kind of guiding in a beacon for us all.

427
00:53:40.260 --> 00:53:45.450
Joseph Murphy: Well, I agree with that I just don't want to remain silent on these broader issues.

428
00:53:46.950 --> 00:53:53.790
Paul Davis: Well, we don't need to I don't think I don't think we want to I mean what I was thinking Joe is, since you you're going to continue doing research and maintaining.

429
00:53:53.790 --> 00:54:04.530
Paul Davis: Our kind of database on what matters and where the biggest problems are in those respects I think you and, and you know other other people always have the ability to come to this little committee and say hey.

430
00:54:04.800 --> 00:54:14.580
Paul Davis: here's an issue this really could be dealt with now we are you know very focused on children as it relates to this issue let's have emotion right, I mean that that's something we will always be able to do.

431
00:54:17.580 --> 00:54:25.710
Joseph Murphy: Well, if anybody who wants to do that kind of research with me i'd love it and I could help you dig up the because i'm.

432
00:54:26.880 --> 00:54:36.480
Joseph Murphy: I I don't know if you want to go there, Paul, but the the volume of research that that is exists on our website.

433
00:54:37.530 --> 00:54:40.140
Joseph Murphy: Because of the you know.

434
00:54:41.220 --> 00:54:43.860
Joseph Murphy: articles that are cited there which i've read all of them.

435
00:54:45.240 --> 00:54:48.000
Joseph Murphy: it's it's it's voluminous.

436
00:54:48.090 --> 00:54:51.540
Paul Davis: So why don't we hear from Mike bravo and Robin just for a minute, because they both.

437
00:54:51.990 --> 00:54:52.800
Joseph Murphy: Oh sure.

438
00:54:52.950 --> 00:54:54.450
Paul Davis: Sure go for it Mike.

439
00:54:55.470 --> 00:55:03.300
Mike Bravo: Thanks yeah I mean just to kind of go back a little bit some of my impression of just committee when we vote on it a couple months ago, a few months ago, whatever it was.

440
00:55:03.840 --> 00:55:13.320
Mike Bravo: Was that was cut kind of serve as like a comic I think tank to generate you know motions that might you know, possibly overlap with other.

441
00:55:14.010 --> 00:55:23.430
Mike Bravo: committees, like you know you know the humbleness committee or housing or whatever the other ones are the arbor committee and things like that so and also as well.

442
00:55:24.840 --> 00:55:37.470
Mike Bravo: to know concerned, you know motions or angles, there are not addressed in those committees, and you know, bring those forth to a committee or do this committee to kind of just.

443
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:48.000
Mike Bravo: highlight them that was my understanding of the committee or your vote on it, a few months back, but I was going to suggest, maybe, just as a some kind of you know, a few of the conversation just solution is.

444
00:55:48.660 --> 00:56:01.080
Mike Bravo: Maybe we can find a way to maybe go identify the most critical committees that we have currently in the dnc Aside from this one, and you know do some homework, you know in between meetings.

445
00:56:02.130 --> 00:56:05.460
Mike Bravo: And kind of just see what's being talked about and see what's not being talked about, and then.

446
00:56:06.180 --> 00:56:12.660
Mike Bravo: bring it back so when we have the next movie configure okay what's not being addressed within these you know important committees on housing.

447
00:56:13.620 --> 00:56:19.470
Mike Bravo: and homelessness you know great you know green space and what have you and then just kind of generate some ideas from there.

448
00:56:19.920 --> 00:56:32.040
Mike Bravo: And, of course, you know just enough and then we'll figure out what's not being talked about, that is important deadlines, with the these goals, and this, you know, these guidelines that Jill created a long time ago yeah and just you know.

449
00:56:33.270 --> 00:56:38.010
Mike Bravo: I guess as a method of brainstorming to kind of consolidate some of our our method.

450
00:56:39.960 --> 00:56:47.640
Paul Davis: that's a good idea, this this matrix is trying to get at you know kind of thinking about doing that I think we want to do that it's it's an important.

451
00:56:48.660 --> 00:56:49.260
Paul Davis: Thank you Mike.

452
00:56:51.000 --> 00:56:52.770
Paul Davis: Robin you want to say.

453
00:56:52.950 --> 00:56:55.290
Robin Murez: hi yeah so from.

454
00:56:56.400 --> 00:57:02.460
Robin Murez: From the times that i've sat in on your meetings which is you know spanning now at least a year.

455
00:57:05.100 --> 00:57:06.120
Robin Murez: I think that.

456
00:57:07.140 --> 00:57:21.330
Robin Murez: There are two different ways that i've known this committee to be defined, one is as a discussion forum that's kind of what Mike is talking about and the other is focus on the children, and it seems to me that.

457
00:57:23.790 --> 00:57:29.010
Robin Murez: What if you if you look at the other chart you had up there, the other.

458
00:57:30.450 --> 00:57:31.080
The other.

459
00:57:32.520 --> 00:57:47.700
Robin Murez: just go yeah if focus on the children is the main headline and then all of the other topics are subordinate to it, I think you have a more unique specific focus for this committee.

460
00:57:48.330 --> 00:57:55.830
Robin Murez: And I think that's what joelle is looking for and Reagan is looking for I think that's what you all used to do and.

461
00:57:56.580 --> 00:58:04.980
Robin Murez: I think you know you can have that discussion forum within the notion of focus on the children, and it seems like that's what.

462
00:58:05.970 --> 00:58:19.290
Robin Murez: You know and i'm not a committee Member and i'll you know i'm just kind of reflecting on what I have seen that seems like what has brought you all together and what your main topic is, and if you.

463
00:58:19.800 --> 00:58:27.810
Robin Murez: don't focus on the children, if you don't keep one main topic then nothing gets accomplished you're all over the place.

464
00:58:29.910 --> 00:58:33.180
Robin Murez: So I just think that that focus on the children should be the.

465
00:58:34.350 --> 00:58:41.760
Robin Murez: You know the main topic and everything else is subordinate to it, your discussion forum is within the concept of focusing on the children.

466
00:58:42.090 --> 00:58:42.480
Robin Murez: But then.

467
00:58:43.020 --> 00:58:55.950
Paul Davis: That doesn't prevent us from engaging with the topics like homelessness or whatever else we would do it through the lens or with you know with the perspective that that the children's ramifications so of any given issue is what we care most about and where we can contribute post.

468
00:59:00.120 --> 00:59:06.270
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Yes, exactly what he would exactly what Robin and that that's, this is what I was.

469
00:59:07.770 --> 00:59:08.220
Joseph Murphy: that's I think.

470
00:59:08.580 --> 00:59:09.540
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Speaking for.

471
00:59:10.440 --> 00:59:16.350
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: You just to give us a just to give us a focus, or else because well actually i'm not going to be redundant you guys.

472
00:59:17.580 --> 00:59:25.020
Paul Davis: focus on children says a lot right we haven't written right in front of us, maybe, maybe that's really something we want to kind of take a little more literally and kind of bring to the top, which had already.

473
00:59:26.400 --> 00:59:27.780
Joseph Murphy: Any Japanese end up.

474
00:59:28.380 --> 00:59:29.700
Paul Davis: Oh i'm sorry, let me know.

475
00:59:30.600 --> 00:59:32.490
-Annie Jump- Vicente: I know I can unmute myself it's OK.

476
00:59:32.580 --> 00:59:41.730
-Annie Jump- Vicente: OK, I think of this, I think that we, you guys i've covered here with that woman's beautiful accent, by the way, what fantastic excellent.

477
00:59:43.980 --> 00:59:44.160
-Annie Jump- Vicente: focus.

478
00:59:44.310 --> 00:59:47.520
-Annie Jump- Vicente: Focusing on the children and by extension.

479
00:59:48.690 --> 00:59:59.160
-Annie Jump- Vicente: You know that that will lead to hey on how can we help, not in this instance, the children and their parents who you know may be homeless and living in blight without a job.

480
00:59:59.400 --> 01:00:10.650
-Annie Jump- Vicente: How can you help the children get to school in a safe way, how can you make that covers walkability and creativity, I I just I just want to throw my voice and say I think that's a.

481
01:00:10.710 --> 01:00:11.520
Great focus.

482
01:00:12.630 --> 01:00:12.990
Paul Davis: Thank you.

483
01:00:13.980 --> 01:00:24.360
Robin Murez: that's what it has been so it seems like somehow you've gotten off topic, maybe just reflecting on what you want it to be, but that's what it was isn't it isn't that.

484
01:00:25.320 --> 01:00:25.800
Paul Davis: No, I think.

485
01:00:25.830 --> 01:00:26.100
Paul Davis: It is.

486
01:00:26.550 --> 01:00:37.680
Paul Davis: yeah I think what happened, you know and and it's there's a lot of legitimacy to it, and it has been good, but I think we we got engaged in a few key homelessness things like that that tiny homes because they seemed like.

487
01:00:38.010 --> 01:00:46.890
Paul Davis: worthwhile things to engage in that I think Joe partly pulled towards as a result of his relationship with frank on the homelessness committee, but they were things that dealt with.

488
01:00:47.220 --> 01:00:56.100
Paul Davis: gaps that Joe and the committee saw that could be filled, through our endeavors and that has happened, but I think it's true that we all can see that focus on children matters, and we want to do it.

489
01:00:57.870 --> 01:00:59.970
Mehrnoosh: and make a point concern.

490
01:01:01.080 --> 01:01:03.510
Joseph Murphy: And I have my head up when you're ready.

491
01:01:04.110 --> 01:01:04.770
Paul Davis: Go ahead manish.

492
01:01:05.430 --> 01:01:29.280
Mehrnoosh: i'm what concerned me, I mean the children fantastic somebody also mentioned it relates to the parents and then it relates into the art, culture, our society who's going to hear it who's going to back it out that's my major concern is it escalates to larger scale.

493
01:01:31.680 --> 01:01:35.820
Mehrnoosh: It comes economy government issues this.

494
01:01:36.180 --> 01:01:36.960
Paul Davis: Big stuff.

495
01:01:38.670 --> 01:01:39.840
Paul Davis: I said big stuff.

496
01:01:40.350 --> 01:01:53.430
Mehrnoosh: yeah it goes from up there, I mean it just like big issue they already you're already economics issues right now is like who's handling all that, where do where do we go to who do we go.

497
01:01:54.240 --> 01:01:56.370
Paul Davis: Okay, so we have to focus, maybe.

498
01:01:57.150 --> 01:01:59.370
Joelle: Focus okay manual manual.

499
01:01:59.850 --> 01:02:07.860
Joelle: You know, yes to F is not good, very nice to have you with us tonight okay and, by the way, to have a good year Happy New Year.

500
01:02:08.280 --> 01:02:19.650
Joelle: But you know when they begin to school in the camino Javanese if I get such a big V join myself that they could not even be able to put my vision together.

501
01:02:20.280 --> 01:02:26.610
Joelle: So what I did I began to school with the little boy who was coming two hours every day.

502
01:02:27.390 --> 01:02:37.170
Joelle: Okay, and look at what we became in this Community sometimes when I am not humble, which I am usually, but when I when I am not.

503
01:02:37.620 --> 01:02:43.590
Joelle: I will say that, thanks to the school the atmosphere of this past of Venus as change.

504
01:02:43.980 --> 01:02:55.320
Joelle: Okay, because it brought another energy, the energy of children, on which I have always been focused that we have not using you know of life, you know we have children we tuck them in classroom.

505
01:02:55.680 --> 01:03:07.260
Joelle: And then we put put them in front of TV show more or less more or less when we are nice we bring them to museum or to the beach, but we are not using the full creative energy okay.

506
01:03:08.460 --> 01:03:16.500
Joelle: But look at our platform one little child one little child we have been we have been creating what we create.

507
01:03:17.160 --> 01:03:33.750
Joelle: three different campuses in the Community, reaching out to the business to the business of the Abbot kinney Buddha reaching out to the vm CS who the focus on children and any it is or that we have so much work to do.

508
01:03:35.010 --> 01:03:51.600
Joelle: But yes, the work has to be done, and if we just sit and speak about the work that we can do our focus for the next three months, the next six months, the next, then we are going to make progress, then yes it is.

514
01:04:22.500 --> 01:04:38.940
Joseph Murphy: Okay, this is just a bit of history in the Venice neighborhood Council that ties into I think what joelle is talking about in general, and that is education we used to have an education committee.

515
01:04:40.320 --> 01:04:44.880
Joseph Murphy: But, for various reasons that just disappeared, it was a standing committee.

516
01:04:45.840 --> 01:04:46.290
and

517
01:04:48.420 --> 01:04:58.980
Joseph Murphy: In my sense of things when we're talking about children we're talking about education in a big way so that's that's at history that that that.

518
01:04:59.880 --> 01:05:07.920
Joseph Murphy: We used to have an education committee had disappeared i'm not sure what what i'm the point i'm trying to make with that, but nonetheless that's what happened.

529
01:05:48.660 --> 01:06:01.290
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: I do see focus on the children as greater than education, I see it, a lot of that quality of life issues like when we were talking about the crosswalks to the library, etc, many things like that.

530
01:06:01.620 --> 01:06:12.240
Re(EE)gan Kibbee: Yes, so the whole quality of life for families in in Venice to make Venice family friendly you know, so we don't have so many families moving away from Venice.

531
01:06:12.570 --> 01:06:13.650
Paul Davis: yeah I.

532
01:06:14.130 --> 01:06:21.660
Joseph Murphy: i'd like to say one more thing because we're about to wrap up my thing, and this has been one of the most fantastic.

533
01:06:23.580 --> 01:06:30.000
Joseph Murphy: Discussions that we've ever had so thank you very much, I appreciate it from all of you.

Mike Bravo: And, just to be here, thank you.

538
01:06:45.180 --> 01:06:53.460
Joseph Murphy: I you know what's our next really going to be about more the same, I mean i'd enjoy this if it's happening again, but.

539
01:06:55.050 --> 01:07:05.610
Joseph Murphy: Any rate let's leave it at that, for right now we'll make the next meeting, similar to this and proceed maybe from there to come up with some specific motion I don't know.

540
01:07:05.880 --> 01:07:16.320
Paul Davis: Why don't we make a list that we can share of possible initiatives that are focused on children period right what maybe that's kind of a thing to talk about we I guess what we got to get busy, I think it seems like we should.

541
01:07:16.800 --> 01:07:24.450
Paul Davis: get into you know if we have a focus, which I think we do, we can use it as a means of guiding action, and that would be the way that we can be most useful, I think.

542
01:07:25.200 --> 01:07:31.470
Joseph Murphy: Okay well who should be on a subcommittee or a task force to pull that together.

543
01:07:33.210 --> 01:07:41.760
Paul Davis: Well, this is a small enough group that we can probably all be on the subcommittee maybe, but maybe could we all agree that we that those of us who were able to come to our next meeting with.

544
01:07:42.210 --> 01:07:46.530
Paul Davis: You know initiatives in mind that we can talk about and that we have in mind as Mike was saying.

545
01:07:46.890 --> 01:07:57.750
Paul Davis: Things that no one else seems to be handling right, we can go back to maybe some of the things that Robin was talking about park initiatives you know moving well to the library, to the extent that we love want to go there.

546
01:07:58.410 --> 01:08:05.100
Paul Davis: But you know specific things that we think could address children's needs and Venice, maybe we all bring a thing or two and chat about those.

547
01:08:06.390 --> 01:08:06.630
Joseph Murphy: yeah.

548
01:08:06.690 --> 01:08:23.100
Joseph Murphy: Yes, I like that idea, but if you can come up with them and send send them to me or to Paul in written form, then we can come up with a sheet, like the one you're looking at here that list the list what you come up with.
