school i've reviewed the packet it's been amended it appears to be something that is legal and, that being the case, I would recommend that the. 131 00:16:26.370 --> 00:16:38.700 jay handal: Friends of the school application for an NP GB approved for i'm gonna i'm going to ask that we reduce the amount to 4999. 132 00:16:39.900 --> 00:16:45.990 jay handal: Because 5000 and up triggers a potential contract review. 133 00:16:47.970 --> 00:16:56.460 jay handal: And that could take months 4999 I get the passage, the way it is, and they get shorted $1. 134 00:16:57.450 --> 00:16:58.920 Daffodil

00:17:03.780 Okay. 138 00:17:06.660 --> 00:17:24.060 james murez: And for the second and Jay I don't want to question your authority you've been doing this, a long time, a lot longer than me conducting these kinds of things Ivan had previously told me that the chair of a committee is not allowed to be a maker or a second or. 139 00:17:27.540 --> 00:17:32.520 Ivan: I just wanted to robert's rules thing that we've been using for a long time. 140 00:17:33.480 --> 00:17:36.540 jay handal: hey i'm perfectly happy to have someone else make the motion. 141 00:17:36.810 --> 00:17:45.960 james murez: Alright, so i'll make the motion on that one and and then there won't be any question from the naysayers going or the Trolls, as some people call them. 142 00:17:46.410 --> 00:17:47.280 jay handal: Not a problem. 143 00:17:47.340 --> 00:17:48.150 james murez: Okay, thank you. 144 00:17:49.350 --> 00:17:50.970 james murez: Okay, we need to take the boat then. 145 00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:55.590 Daffodil Tyminski: Or do we have any public company, we do have one public one hand raise for public comment. 146 00:17:56.760 --> 00:17:57.300 jay handal: Okay. 147 00:17:58.860 --> 00:18:00.870 Daffodil Tyminski: Robin go ahead. 148 00:18:02.790 --> 00:18:08.640 Robin: hi good morning everybody, so I have a couple questions or comments, one is. 149 00:18:09.810 --> 00:18:22.830 Robin: That my reading and experience says that it's you can have up to $5,000 so I don't believe you have to change that dollar amount, and I believe it shows that right on the. 150 00:18:23.850 --> 00:18:28.260 Robin: front of the will the old applications it's also on the page that. 151 00:18:30.120 --> 00:18:42.720 Robin: The city clerk puts out then secondly from my experience in applying for these things, one of the primary requirements is that there'd be a detailed budget and by detailed what they've always required is. 152 00:18:43.710 --> 00:18:55.260 Robin: Well, for us, we always had to provide actually the vendors, who were going to be receiving the payment, but something like just saying that they need $1,000 for paint. 153 00:18:56.040 --> 00:19:05.550 Robin: would not be sufficient from the way it used to be um I don't know that that's changed it seems like these are broad figures that don't really give a specific. 154 00:19:06.060 --> 00:19:24.090 Robin: And then Thirdly, if there's a question of need, this is an organization that has over $470,000 on an annual basis at their disposal, so I would question whether this is an appropriate project to fund, thank you. 155 00:19:24.990 --> 00:19:25.590 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you. 156 00:19:26.700 --> 00:19:30.150 Daffodil Tyminski: cj is also has their hand raised cj go ahead. 157 00:19:32.010 --> 00:19:41.700 CJ Cole: Okay, my only question, and this is the question that i've had, for I don't know how many times is, how can we approve one before we have gone through all of them. 158 00:19:42.360 --> 00:20:01.500 CJ Cole: I mean don't we have two or 10 the Budget Committee approves, all of them, even if we don't have the money to do it and then what makes a decision, but I have asked for a spreadsheet of what's been requested by who, for what so that all of them could be looked at, at the same time. 159 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:16.860 CJ Cole: And I don't know I may just misunderstand how this works, but if you prove this, to me it says the gym already taken $5,000 of our money and have allocated to this project, thank you. 160 00:20:18.120 --> 00:20:18.990 Daffodil Tyminski: Thanks ej. 161 00:20:19.320 --> 00:20:20.760 jay handal: So cj. 162 00:20:20.970 --> 00:20:22.590 Daffodil Tyminski: With that we're going to close public comment. 163 00:20:22.890 --> 00:20:31.920 jay handal: Right and and look for the committee, just so you know we will go through all the projects, and if we exceed the amount of money we have left to spend. 164 00:20:32.430 --> 00:20:42.510 jay handal: Then we will have to come back and adjust dollars I don't believe based on what I see here in the applications, we will exceed the money we have spent. 165 00:20:45.420 --> 00:20:46.620 jay handal: The next item. 166 00:20:46.950 --> 00:20:48.000 james murez: We do we want to take a vote on. 167 00:20:48.360 --> 00:20:55.200 jay handal: i'll take a boat on that vote on the mtg for the school, we have a motion and a second. 168 00:20:59.490 --> 00:21:02.400 Daffodil Tyminski: Jim made the motion I capital, I will be the second. 169 00:21:03.930 --> 00:21:05.520 jay handal: Anybody abstaining. 170 00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:09.480 jay handal: Anybody against. 171 00:21:12.060 --> 00:21:14.010 jay handal: The net motion will pass you know. 172 00:21:19.410 --> 00:21:21.210 jay handal: The next item on the agenda. 173 00:21:28.230 --> 00:21:30.900 jay handal: Is for open collective foundation. 174 00:21:34.200 --> 00:21:36.900 jay handal: And this is or. 175 00:21:39.390 --> 00:21:59.880 jay handal: See it's for supplies for la in for ends rapidly growing monthly resource Center allowing the ability to expand further services announced individuals from Venice are transported to the resource Center in my vista to access services so. 176 00:22:00.690 --> 00:22:02.130 james murez: i'll go ahead and make the motion. 177 00:22:03.150 --> 00:22:05.490 jay handal: So we do have a motion is there a SEC. 178 00:22:10.740 --> 00:22:11.760 jay handal: Going once. 179 00:22:12.810 --> 00:22:14.070 jay handal: Going twice. 180 00:22:15.750 --> 00:22:19.410 jay handal: Okay, then this application dies, for lack of a SEC. 181 00:22:20.610 --> 00:22:23.550 james murez: J Out of curiosity, how do I record that in the boat. 182 00:22:24.870 --> 00:22:27.150 jay handal: There is no vote because there's no emotion. 183 00:22:28.110 --> 00:22:31.110 james murez: So how do I record it for the future. 184 00:22:32.550 --> 00:22:36.420 jay handal: There is no future, this doesn't go to the board, this is day. 185 00:22:36.810 --> 00:22:37.110 jay handal: i'll just. 186 00:22:37.170 --> 00:22:40.320 james murez: make a note here, so we have a record of some sort yeah. 187 00:22:40.560 --> 00:22:43.860 jay handal: Mostly make note that it died for lack of the SEC. 188 00:22:44.640 --> 00:22:44.940 Right. 189 00:22:46.170 --> 00:22:48.780 jay handal: OK, the next item. 190 00:22:52.080 --> 00:22:52.980 jay handal: So we have. 191 00:22:55.230 --> 00:23:00.060 jay handal: scrolling up Okay, so we have item 11 and item. 192 00:23:01.080 --> 00:23:07.290 james murez: And I need to recuse myself from this, but when you tell me, too, I will route work the controls of the. 193 00:23:08.370 --> 00:23:09.270 james murez: Taking of the vote. 194 00:23:11.010 --> 00:23:12.540 jay handal: daffodil can you take the vote. 195 00:23:13.320 --> 00:23:17.820 Daffodil Tyminski: I can take the vote I just can't use jim's program So what we can do is take the vote and then. 196 00:23:17.820 --> 00:23:20.370 jay handal: Wait and then we'll bring him back. 197 00:23:20.550 --> 00:23:24.960 jay handal: Yes, okay so Jim you can recuse yourself, please a. 198 00:23:24.990 --> 00:23:26.160 james murez: blackout me. 199 00:23:26.610 --> 00:23:27.930 james murez: Please blackout up. 200 00:23:28.050 --> 00:23:37.260 jay handal: and turn off his audio as well, and we are going to look at these two items now these two items. 201 00:23:38.850 --> 00:23:41.220 jay handal: i've reviewed them, I talked to downtown. 202 00:23:42.360 --> 00:23:43.320 jay handal: Number One. 203 00:23:44.430 --> 00:23:46.470 jay handal: There are issues with this item that I see. 204 00:23:47.610 --> 00:23:49.170 jay handal: So let's take Item number 11. 205 00:23:50.250 --> 00:23:55.830 jay handal: Item number 11, which is the fabrication of a capital mole step one. 206 00:23:57.630 --> 00:24:01.770 jay handal: These columns are on private property, they are not public. 207 00:24:03.150 --> 00:24:08.790 jay handal: And I have nothing in the packet approval by the landowners to do work on their property. 208 00:24:10.320 --> 00:24:23.250 jay handal: Number two, these are just fabrications I see nothing about installation, which means a project can't be completed at this point there's no funding, nor is there the ability to. 209 00:24:24.630 --> 00:24:26.640 jay handal: to fund to fund and finish this item. 210 00:24:28.140 --> 00:24:42.090 jay handal: Number three is a very big potential of a conflict as Robin euro's his sister to the chair of the board and that would probably trigger according to what i'm told an ethics issue. 211 00:24:43.350 --> 00:24:50.850 jay handal: Number four I mean basically this if if this whole project came together with installation, it would be in next year's budget. 212 00:24:52.290 --> 00:24:58.650 jay handal: And number five, even though it is split between number 11 and number 12. 213 00:25:01.410 --> 00:25:08.430 jay handal: It would be considered by downtown one five deck and would be a contract at the very least. 214 00:25:09.750 --> 00:25:21.120 jay handal: Because it's the same vendor and you can't split and think you can get away with splitting so for all of those reasons I am recommending denying both of these projects. 215 00:25:24.900 --> 00:25:33.750 Daffodil Tyminski: So um we need someone to make the motion which i'm happy to do i'm not happy to do, but you know I understand what your. 216 00:25:34.830 --> 00:25:38.610 Daffodil Tyminski: rationale is so I will make the motion to deny. 217 00:25:39.480 --> 00:25:40.110 Daffodil Tyminski: The project. 218 00:25:40.290 --> 00:25:41.250 jay handal: Is there a second. 219 00:25:45.000 --> 00:25:45.780 jay handal: To deny. 220 00:25:49.560 --> 00:25:52.170 Sima Kostov: Yes, hi this is Steve I second that. 221 00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:53.190 Sima Kostov: So I have. 222 00:25:54.030 --> 00:25:56.460 Sima Kostov: For all the reasons that you say to Jay Thank you. 223 00:25:56.760 --> 00:26:02.370 jay handal: Okay, so I have a second to deny or a public comment on these two items um. 224 00:26:02.490 --> 00:26:03.000 Okay. 225 00:26:04.350 --> 00:26:06.930 Ivan: So before you go any further, I Center. 226 00:26:07.980 --> 00:26:08.970 Ivan: Separate vendor. 227 00:26:10.170 --> 00:26:10.470 jay handal: going. 228 00:26:10.680 --> 00:26:11.430 Ivan: Like that we're. 229 00:26:11.970 --> 00:26:33.090 jay handal: According according to the paperwork, I have here vision scenery is attached to the first one and vision scenery is attached to the second one, now that may be mistaken what I was given but that's what my package shows, but in either case that's not the issue. 230 00:26:34.080 --> 00:26:35.460 Ivan: Oh well, I just want to be. 231 00:26:36.600 --> 00:26:38.490 Ivan: heard on the record that tool yeah. 232 00:26:38.520 --> 00:26:46.440 jay handal: I don't have a if there's a second vendor it's not in the packet I was given the packet I was given his the same vendor. 233 00:26:46.860 --> 00:26:58.920 jay handal: For both but that's not the reason for denial that would just be the reason, if we move forward to send it in for a contract, but the bigger issues are it's private property will not allow the fun. 234 00:27:00.480 --> 00:27:08.040 jay handal: Improvements to private property, we don't have, in fact, we have one letter from a property owners, saying they don't want anyone touching their property. 235 00:27:08.820 --> 00:27:24.240 jay handal: And these are not historic based on the city registry and therefore we really don't have the right to go on private property and improve their property well, I have a motion, I have a second, is there any public comment. 236 00:27:24.540 --> 00:27:33.180 Daffodil Tyminski: There is some public comment, and I think it's going to shed some light on what the project is but i'm Robin I think you can talk go ahead. 237 00:27:33.570 --> 00:27:34.710 Daffodil Tyminski: I am what we're not. 238 00:27:34.740 --> 00:27:35.940 Daffodil Tyminski: going to keep exact time. 239 00:27:36.990 --> 00:27:37.560 jay handal: One minute. 240 00:27:37.620 --> 00:27:38.160 Daffodil Tyminski: The committee. 241 00:27:38.490 --> 00:27:39.720 jay handal: But one minute one minute. 242 00:27:40.830 --> 00:27:41.310 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay. 243 00:27:41.370 --> 00:27:52.170 Robin: So um you're right, this is the same vendor these are two separate project, the two separate items so that could be done separately, for the first could be done. 244 00:27:52.620 --> 00:28:00.150 Robin: The second can't be done without the first on the question of it being public property i'm told that it's the parkway. 245 00:28:00.510 --> 00:28:12.000 Robin: That you know we all have that usually it's a grassy strip and that that's public property, so I don't think that's correct if you know differently, you know let's figure that out. 246 00:28:13.110 --> 00:28:22.050 Robin: The question of their being property owners in favor of it well, that I guess the other group was asked to or enabled to. 247 00:28:23.670 --> 00:28:41.430 Robin: make alterations to their proposal, I was not given that option, though I have met with several of the property owners and they in fact are in favor and they include Tony bill and mark socal and regarding the conflict of interest. 248 00:28:43.140 --> 00:28:52.170 Robin: That well if you see a conflict of interest here on this came from my committee it's not for me personally, and I would. 249 00:28:53.070 --> 00:29:10.200 Robin: suggest also that daffodil has a few projects on from her personally, as well as for the commit her committees, so I think you need to be looking at recusals across the board that are appropriate and i'm. 250 00:29:10.470 --> 00:29:10.680 i'm. 251 00:29:12.330 --> 00:29:14.820 jay handal: thumbs up Thank you next speaker. 252 00:29:16.620 --> 00:29:19.020 Daffodil Tyminski: um there are. 253 00:29:20.850 --> 00:29:22.350 Daffodil Tyminski: There are no other public comments. 254 00:29:22.410 --> 00:29:23.100 Daffodil Tyminski: So we can close. 255 00:29:23.130 --> 00:29:27.360 jay handal: Up accountable comment is closed, we will take a boat. 256 00:29:28.830 --> 00:29:33.000 jay handal: Anybody who is abstaining from the motion to deny. 257 00:29:34.950 --> 00:29:38.130 jay handal: Anybody who is against the motion to deny. 258 00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:54.000 jay handal: Then, that will pass unanimously and those two items will be pulled from the fact that the next item on the agenda, and please bring Mr muir his back. 259 00:29:56.250 --> 00:29:57.270 Daffodil Tyminski: Let me text him. 260 00:29:57.480 --> 00:29:58.950 jay handal: hold on a second hold on. 261 00:30:00.360 --> 00:30:00.810 Daffodil Tyminski: we'll wait. 262 00:30:00.840 --> 00:30:02.010 Daffodil Tyminski: He must be back because he. 263 00:30:02.340 --> 00:30:08.370 jay handal: And we have another we have another item with Robin bureaus on it, which is the. 264 00:30:09.510 --> 00:30:15.990 jay handal: landmark site markers so miss them yours needs to recuse himself from this item to. 265 00:30:16.560 --> 00:30:19.200 Daffodil Tyminski: I don't aren't who is operating the agenda. 266 00:30:19.920 --> 00:30:20.550 jay handal: not me. 267 00:30:20.970 --> 00:30:22.170 Daffodil Tyminski: So gymnasts be here. 268 00:30:23.370 --> 00:30:26.340 Daffodil Tyminski: If he's taking the vote and operating me. 269 00:30:26.910 --> 00:30:27.600 jay handal: I guess. 270 00:30:28.080 --> 00:30:30.210 james murez: i'm keeping up with you go ahead. 271 00:30:30.390 --> 00:30:34.260 jay handal: Okay, so we're on the next item, and Jimmy recused again. 272 00:30:35.310 --> 00:30:39.450 jay handal: Which is the Venice cultural, historical landmarks site markers. 273 00:30:41.310 --> 00:30:48.390 jay handal: So again, this item is something that's going to be put on private property. 274 00:30:50.190 --> 00:31:07.260 jay handal: So it's to its to manufacturer, but they can't be an end date because I don't see in my packet any approvals from any of the buildings to allow people to hang them on the buildings. 275 00:31:08.400 --> 00:31:12.390 Daffodil Tyminski: Do we know that it's on private property, I was unclear about that. 276 00:31:13.980 --> 00:31:16.710 jay handal: Well, according to what it says. 277 00:31:18.720 --> 00:31:19.890 jay handal: In the packet. 278 00:31:23.940 --> 00:31:45.060 jay handal: Venice has an abundance of multicultural historic sites that could receive markers they include significant architectural sites, including the hundred year old short line trolley bridge the Venice West beat poet landmark the ocean front walk pagodas the iconic Italian colonnade. 279 00:31:46.080 --> 00:31:46.440 jay handal: So. 280 00:31:46.470 --> 00:31:48.120 Daffodil Tyminski: I don't can you scroll down to the. 281 00:31:48.120 --> 00:31:49.620 Daffodil Tyminski: Action item 14. 282 00:31:51.420 --> 00:31:52.500 Daffodil Tyminski: So we can see it okay. 283 00:31:53.640 --> 00:31:59.580 jay handal: So, according to this is going on, either public or private properties. 284 00:32:01.590 --> 00:32:12.030 jay handal: And again there's no end date potential because there's no plan for installation there's a plan to buy, but not a plan to install. 285 00:32:14.010 --> 00:32:14.280 Daffodil Tyminski: Right. 286 00:32:14.520 --> 00:32:30.270 jay handal: My suggestion is that and it's not that it's a lot of money, you know it's $1,000 but I, my suggestion is that if you guys want to do this, you should do it in next year's budget with. 287 00:32:31.200 --> 00:32:37.650 jay handal: All of the proper documentation if if you're putting it on city historic property get permission from the city. 288 00:32:38.130 --> 00:32:52.380 jay handal: If you're putting it on private property get permission from the private property people and have that all in the packet to be able to be reviewed and Okay, and again the issue of the potential conflict of interest. 289 00:32:53.490 --> 00:33:01.350 jay handal: With Robin and Jim you know it's just another issue for downtown that they will probably bounces so. 290 00:33:01.830 --> 00:33:07.470 jay handal: On that note i'm suggesting that this item, also be passed over. 291 00:33:08.370 --> 00:33:24.570 Daffodil Tyminski: It so based on what you're saying, and I know we're procedurally a little out of whack here but based on what you're saying it seems to me that each of the projects now on the rest of this agenda or fatally flawed, which is frankly not what we understood from the city. 292 00:33:25.620 --> 00:33:29.520 Daffodil Tyminski: earlier in the year, but I understand if that's their position that's their position. 293 00:33:31.020 --> 00:33:32.490 jay handal: we're going to go item by item. 294 00:33:33.090 --> 00:33:35.700 Daffodil Tyminski: No, I understand I really like this project and. 295 00:33:35.760 --> 00:33:39.780 Daffodil Tyminski: Robin has done some of this around Venice already and does a fantastic job of. 296 00:33:39.780 --> 00:33:40.470 Daffodil Tyminski: It so. 297 00:33:41.640 --> 00:33:45.810 Daffodil Tyminski: If we are going, if we do if eventually it's going to fail right, which is what the sense of. 298 00:33:45.930 --> 00:33:46.590 Daffodil Tyminski: Reading is. 299 00:33:47.850 --> 00:33:50.820 Daffodil Tyminski: My suggestion is is that we find a way to bring it back. 300 00:33:51.420 --> 00:33:51.960 CJ Cole: You know, we can. 301 00:33:51.990 --> 00:34:05.010 Daffodil Tyminski: take it to the neighborhood committee and just have them pass it to avoid the conflict or something in the future, but um, I just wanted to get your sense like it seems that the rest of these are going to fail, basically, I. 302 00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:10.980 jay handal: mean, for all practical purposes, for a number of different reasons, there are failures here. 303 00:34:12.120 --> 00:34:24.000 jay handal: And I don't know who your treasure was prior to me, but I can tell you that you know, the best thing to do is work with a treasurer who has had the proper treasurer training. 304 00:34:24.540 --> 00:34:42.960 jay handal: And who can talk downtown you know at any given time to get proper information so that the guidance is there to make sure that if you're going to propose it you're not going to waste time that's all so you know I mean if you want to pass this $4,000. 305 00:34:43.290 --> 00:34:47.490 jay handal: and try and run it through downtown you know you can try. 306 00:34:48.780 --> 00:34:59.790 jay handal: But, again, I think that there's a number of items in here that's flawed Okay, the number of components that are fluid that it's going to be rejected for a number of different reasons. 307 00:35:01.800 --> 00:35:05.160 Daffodil Tyminski: So we need to make a motion um. 308 00:35:06.270 --> 00:35:20.910 Daffodil Tyminski: I am I don't know you know this is out of my area of expertise I don't know, then what it would take to get it passed downtown, but we do need to make a motion, one way or the other Robin does is here has her hand raised for public comment. 309 00:35:22.590 --> 00:35:24.000 Daffodil Tyminski: To somebody want to make emotion. 310 00:35:26.850 --> 00:35:30.360 jay handal: Well, the question is, is there a motion to approve this project. 311 00:35:34.050 --> 00:35:34.530 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm. 312 00:35:37.770 --> 00:35:38.280 Daffodil Tyminski: Only. 313 00:35:38.640 --> 00:35:39.480 jay handal: Seeing row. 314 00:35:39.810 --> 00:35:46.560 jay handal: Seeing no motion to approve and no second, then this project is for lack of emotion. 315 00:35:49.500 --> 00:35:53.190 jay handal: The next item, please the self guided tours. 316 00:35:56.550 --> 00:35:59.250 jay handal: That would be a Community improvement project. 317 00:35:59.760 --> 00:36:03.810 Daffodil Tyminski: Right, this is item 15 Jim if you could scroll up just a little bit. 318 00:36:09.870 --> 00:36:13.740 jay handal: So there are a number of questions on this item. 319 00:36:15.960 --> 00:36:16.800 jay handal: and 320 00:36:17.100 --> 00:36:18.780 james murez: Am I excuse me, am I allowed to come back into. 321 00:36:19.020 --> 00:36:19.440 Daffodil Tyminski: Your back. 322 00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:20.190 back. 323 00:36:21.480 --> 00:36:23.850 Daffodil Tyminski: Actually, this is also robins project but. 324 00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:33.540 Daffodil Tyminski: Oh Jay there's actually two similar ones on here that have the same issues it's number, we might be able to take them together, just to speed it up not moving a pace, but. 325 00:36:34.170 --> 00:36:39.390 jay handal: yeah so i'm looking at i'm looking at the first one, which is the APP. 326 00:36:40.080 --> 00:36:43.680 jay handal: mm hmm and then the second one is. 327 00:36:46.260 --> 00:36:47.190 jay handal: For. 328 00:36:47.310 --> 00:36:50.010 Daffodil Tyminski: Also, an APP they're essentially to do the same things. 329 00:36:50.310 --> 00:36:51.870 jay handal: Well that's a different one no the. 330 00:36:51.960 --> 00:36:53.400 jay handal: Next, one is typical ball. 331 00:36:54.150 --> 00:37:02.970 Daffodil Tyminski: No, but if you scroll down number 16 and number 15 are essentially to do the same project, it just came in. 332 00:37:03.030 --> 00:37:06.300 Daffodil Tyminski: He said it so i'm just suggesting will take them together, because they have we. 333 00:37:06.660 --> 00:37:09.030 jay handal: Take 15 and 16 together that's fun. 334 00:37:09.570 --> 00:37:11.700 jay handal: OK, so the issues of the same. 335 00:37:12.720 --> 00:37:13.320 jay handal: Okay. 336 00:37:14.430 --> 00:37:16.530 jay handal: Number one who's going to own the APP. 337 00:37:17.940 --> 00:37:25.080 jay handal: Number two if you're going to buy the APP you need to fund the APP maintenance through the next fiscal year. 338 00:37:26.580 --> 00:37:32.160 jay handal: Number three does no vendor invoice or no vendor pick to build the APP. 339 00:37:33.480 --> 00:37:36.330 jay handal: So I have no documentation on who the vendor is. 340 00:37:38.340 --> 00:37:39.480 jay handal: Number four. 341 00:37:40.530 --> 00:37:45.840 jay handal: Do you know what the ongoing fees are and who's going to pay them. 342 00:37:47.940 --> 00:37:49.200 jay handal: And then number five. 343 00:37:50.220 --> 00:38:00.960 jay handal: In the packet it says, once the APP is up and functional ongoing maintenance will be handled by Community volunteers well again, the question is who owns the APP. 344 00:38:02.040 --> 00:38:13.500 jay handal: Okay there's no nonprofit that's asking money for the APP the committee seems to be the one asking for the APP and the committee can't own the APP. 345 00:38:15.930 --> 00:38:18.000 jay handal: So the question then becomes. 346 00:38:20.130 --> 00:38:29.910 jay handal: Who who's going to own it who's going to build it, what are the ongoing fees who's the vendor and for all of these reasons, both of these. 347 00:38:30.690 --> 00:38:43.590 jay handal: These projects are not ready for prime time and for both of those reasons I would move to deny both projects and, if you want to bring them back their fee and bring them back. 348 00:38:44.580 --> 00:38:47.040 Robin: All of those questions are answered in. 349 00:38:47.100 --> 00:38:48.570 Daffodil Tyminski: The princes closely. 350 00:38:48.630 --> 00:38:49.530 Robin: Number 15. 351 00:38:50.970 --> 00:38:54.420 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm Robin will Connie for public comment on this is definitely one of those. 352 00:38:55.440 --> 00:39:05.790 Daffodil Tyminski: Requests came from the neighborhood Committee, and it is not a conflict for a committee chair to sit on a another committee where one of their projects are voted on. 353 00:39:06.690 --> 00:39:14.160 Daffodil Tyminski: But I do understand from the city what the issues are, and particularly with the ownership of the APP and some of the maintenance issues. 354 00:39:14.580 --> 00:39:21.000 Daffodil Tyminski: i've spoken to the city about it, and this really just as a project that should be done privately common we. 355 00:39:21.600 --> 00:39:25.200 Daffodil Tyminski: released from our committee, we have a bunch of Community volunteers. 356 00:39:25.590 --> 00:39:32.220 Daffodil Tyminski: That were willing to do it privately I don't know from robins committee what they have but it just this is not appropriate for the neighborhood Council is basically what. 357 00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:43.590 Daffodil Tyminski: I understand from the city, or so I will make a motion to deny both projects 15 and 16 I need a second on that motion, and then I know Robin wants to make some comments. 358 00:39:45.510 --> 00:39:46.560 Daffodil Tyminski: Do I have a second to deny. 359 00:39:46.920 --> 00:39:48.030 jay handal: Second, to the motion. 360 00:39:50.070 --> 00:39:51.270 jay handal: I will move the second. 361 00:39:52.530 --> 00:39:54.510 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, we lost Sema to, by the way. 362 00:39:57.300 --> 00:39:58.950 Daffodil Tyminski: So we still have quite without array. 363 00:40:00.120 --> 00:40:02.280 Daffodil Tyminski: Jim technically you're supposed to be recused. 364 00:40:03.810 --> 00:40:04.290 Daffodil Tyminski: um. 365 00:40:04.530 --> 00:40:06.120 james murez: Am I on these two I don't know. 366 00:40:09.120 --> 00:40:13.770 jay handal: If Robin is a committee Member on needs. 367 00:40:15.150 --> 00:40:24.570 jay handal: To be recuse if Jim is recused and Sema has gone, then for this these two items we've lost quorum. 368 00:40:24.810 --> 00:40:27.810 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, so i'm sorry to jump in Jay actually. 369 00:40:29.970 --> 00:40:33.720 Daffodil Tyminski: And I don't see Sema here on the up she just came back in. 370 00:40:33.930 --> 00:40:34.470 jay handal: Okay. 371 00:40:34.650 --> 00:40:37.860 Daffodil Tyminski: hold on a second yeah that's why I brought that up because I. 372 00:40:39.900 --> 00:40:40.290 jay handal: Right. 373 00:40:40.410 --> 00:40:43.050 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, so maybe we can just revisit what we just said. 374 00:40:43.350 --> 00:40:47.640 jay handal: We have a motion, we have a second and we're going to public comment Robin. 375 00:40:49.170 --> 00:40:50.070 Robin: So if. 376 00:40:51.900 --> 00:40:59.370 Robin: I don't understand how daffodil can be voting on this because it's coming from her committee, just as much as the other one is coming from my committee. 377 00:41:00.090 --> 00:41:10.950 Robin: Secondly, all of the questions you asked are completely answered there's a contract you don't have on the screen here the full submission, we made there is a vendor. 378 00:41:11.490 --> 00:41:22.470 Robin: With years of experience doing this for cities all across the world, I went on tours with other committee members in downtown la. 379 00:41:23.970 --> 00:41:43.140 Robin: That the, so there is a vendor what you're the ongoing it's completely stated and it's in the contract it's $500 a year ongoing that's an option it doesn't need to be exercised the notion that the neighborhood Council can undertake something like this seems really sad. 380 00:41:44.310 --> 00:41:44.550 jay handal: i've. 381 00:41:44.580 --> 00:41:46.710 jay handal: Gone I don't disagree with. 382 00:41:47.070 --> 00:41:57.570 Robin: This is something that is, it would be wonderful for the neighborhood Council to undertake it came out of both committees is the same concept, there are lots of people who think it would be. 383 00:41:58.110 --> 00:42:05.460 Robin: A great thing that for the neighborhood Council to do, and not for a private entity or some not for profit that we don't know what their. 384 00:42:05.970 --> 00:42:11.070 Robin: ideas are or whether they'll make it happen, this is a fully documented a. 385 00:42:11.760 --> 00:42:29.340 Robin: proposal and i've done several of these CIPS over the past several years and beautification grants, and this is absolutely has every detail in it so i'm really surprised and this notion that Jim has to recuse because i'm on this committee makes no sense. 386 00:42:29.730 --> 00:42:30.690 jay handal: So okay. 387 00:42:31.770 --> 00:42:48.090 Robin: If there were if there were because I was not given any opportunity, nor was my committee to to fix any of the flaws, to provide any other information, so I just think the way you're going about this is not to the benefit of the Community. 388 00:42:49.140 --> 00:42:49.590 jay handal: And you. 389 00:42:51.060 --> 00:42:51.780 jay handal: Probably the other. 390 00:42:52.110 --> 00:42:55.620 Daffodil Tyminski: day also has her hand raised and after cgs comment. 391 00:42:57.030 --> 00:43:05.490 Daffodil Tyminski: We can close public comment, if I can just have one point of information on the meeting I see Lisa redman has logged in as a speaker at Lisa we already handled your item. 392 00:43:07.110 --> 00:43:14.310 Daffodil Tyminski: And it was denied and I can talk to you about it later, but I just want to tell you, so you don't sit through this whole meeting waiting for your item to be called. 393 00:43:16.560 --> 00:43:17.400 Daffodil Tyminski: cj go ahead. 394 00:43:21.270 --> 00:43:21.720 CJ Cole: Oh. 395 00:43:24.240 --> 00:43:24.690 CJ Cole: Can you hear me. 396 00:43:25.260 --> 00:43:32.580 CJ Cole: Yes, oh sorry I never want you to my only thing unless you know this whole thing is a product. 397 00:43:33.390 --> 00:43:39.870 CJ Cole: And just this one, and all of them have everybody trying to rush at the last minute to do this. 398 00:43:40.350 --> 00:43:47.790 CJ Cole: And I think we all need to learn a lesson that you can't do it this way, these funds are available all year long the. 399 00:43:48.210 --> 00:44:00.990 CJ Cole: Proposals to people in at any point, through the year, but you know we're wasting hours of all of our time, because nobody did anything to literally the last minute that's all i'm saying thanks. 400 00:44:03.630 --> 00:44:04.710 jay handal: Any other speakers. 401 00:44:05.220 --> 00:44:10.530 Daffodil Tyminski: I know we've closed public comment, I have a comment on the motion myself when you want to call for it but. 402 00:44:10.560 --> 00:44:16.170 jay handal: Other than that good so let's take your comment and any other board comments and then we'll take the boat. 403 00:44:17.370 --> 00:44:25.380 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm cj you're 1,000% correct and i'll leave it at that i'm Robin I am as well, very frustrated about it, I also did not know. 404 00:44:25.800 --> 00:44:38.670 Daffodil Tyminski: about these issues until yesterday so did not have the opportunity to fix anything I just think we just need to do it better moving forward, and you know engage with the city more as much as we can and get a straight answer so. 405 00:44:39.960 --> 00:44:47.460 Daffodil Tyminski: I think they're great projects, I think it's perfect kind of thing for city to do for the reasons Robin stated, but I understand that it's going to fail so. 406 00:44:49.560 --> 00:44:51.600 Daffodil Tyminski: i'll support denying the projects. 407 00:44:53.130 --> 00:44:54.390 jay handal: And the other board members. 408 00:44:57.090 --> 00:45:01.560 jay handal: So as you're newly appointed temporary fraser, this is what i'm going to tell everybody. 409 00:45:02.820 --> 00:45:11.430 jay handal: If you wait until 1159 to order champagne for new years you're going to be drinking diet coke. 410 00:45:13.380 --> 00:45:17.550 jay handal: What you guys do is you wait till the last minute and try and spend your money. 411 00:45:18.840 --> 00:45:28.260 jay handal: The reality is you've got 12 months to spend your money, and if you don't spend it, you lose it and all these projects may have great merit. 412 00:45:28.920 --> 00:45:41.130 jay handal: But you need to have a dialogue with a treasurer during the year, who can ask the right questions help you build your packets, so that you will avoid these kinds of problems. 413 00:45:41.790 --> 00:45:52.590 jay handal: And if you do that you'll have a very smooth end of the year, without having a rush 10am meeting to be able to get something to a board, you know, the day before cut off. 414 00:45:53.580 --> 00:46:04.650 jay handal: So i'm just saying you know i've watched Venice work in the past, you know i've watched a lot of neighborhood Councils work in the past, and this is exactly how the majority of them work. 415 00:46:05.400 --> 00:46:19.440 jay handal: You know they get up to the very last minute, and they want to give $10,000 to Congress $5,000 to budget advocates and money to this charity and money to that school and they just start throwing money away, you know. 416 00:46:20.670 --> 00:46:29.220 jay handal: During the year is when you should be looking at all your NGOs and all the media organizations in your community that you can help. 417 00:46:30.000 --> 00:46:39.720 jay handal: Okay, including whether it's you know plaques on historic buildings or Apps you know the Apps could be really need is a nonprofit that come up. 418 00:46:40.170 --> 00:46:50.220 jay handal: You know if there's a Venice nonprofit it's all about Venice tie in with that nonprofit you know and let them build the APP and let them maintain the APP. 419 00:46:50.700 --> 00:47:01.650 jay handal: And then you won't have any of these problems so i'm only trying to get you through a very short period of time to get you whatever money is available to do this that's all. 420 00:47:02.880 --> 00:47:08.490 jay handal: And on that note, we have a motion and a second to deny. 421 00:47:10.590 --> 00:47:14.220 james murez: Is there anybody, excuse me Jay just for interrupting who made the motion. 422 00:47:15.390 --> 00:47:16.500 Daffodil Tyminski: Definitely, the motion. 423 00:47:16.860 --> 00:47:17.820 james murez: And who second is. 424 00:47:18.780 --> 00:47:19.560 jay handal: Jay handle. 425 00:47:24.750 --> 00:47:30.150 jay handal: So we have a motion and a second to deny, we have one recusal is there anybody abstaining. 426 00:47:32.460 --> 00:47:34.620 jay handal: Is there anybody against the denial. 427 00:47:37.680 --> 00:47:41.310 jay handal: Then those two items shall be been denied. 428 00:47:42.690 --> 00:47:43.980 jay handal: and taken off the list. 429 00:47:45.750 --> 00:47:50.760 jay handal: And you know, during the short period i'm here for all the makers of these these. 430 00:47:51.810 --> 00:48:00.690 jay handal: promotions, you know if they want to meet with me privately to talk about how to get these you know for the future i'm happy to help. 431 00:48:02.610 --> 00:48:04.350 jay handal: The next item is. 432 00:48:06.030 --> 00:48:08.580 jay handal: scrolling up the pickle ball course. 433 00:48:11.430 --> 00:48:11.940 jay handal: So. 434 00:48:13.560 --> 00:48:15.630 james murez: i'm going to rejoin the meeting now. 435 00:48:16.920 --> 00:48:18.300 james murez: i'll go ahead and make the motion. 436 00:48:19.650 --> 00:48:25.260 jay handal: Okay, so we have a motion to approve the papal bull courts do we have a second. 437 00:48:30.570 --> 00:48:31.410 jay handal: Going once. 438 00:48:31.470 --> 00:48:32.640 Sima Kostovetsky: Inside to approve. 439 00:48:33.390 --> 00:48:36.030 jay handal: To approve the pickle ball court motion. 440 00:48:36.150 --> 00:48:38.520 Sima Kostovetsky: Yes, I vote to second. 441 00:48:38.760 --> 00:48:42.690 jay handal: So we have a motion and a second, so we can open discussion. 442 00:48:43.830 --> 00:48:46.380 jay handal: So here's the issues with the pickle ball court. 443 00:48:48.150 --> 00:48:50.100 jay handal: Number one it's a contract. 444 00:48:52.110 --> 00:48:54.810 jay handal: And this won't happen for at least six months. 445 00:48:55.920 --> 00:48:56.730 jay handal: Just to you know. 446 00:48:57.870 --> 00:49:06.720 jay handal: Number two it may never happen at all because is who are the vendors what's the what's the breakdown of course. 447 00:49:08.700 --> 00:49:19.380 jay handal: You know, according to the packet I have and again i'm only going by the packet that I read page 10 permission for use of the property. 448 00:49:19.830 --> 00:49:36.840 jay handal: Multiple authorizations needed from various city agencies, so this project can be started in this fiscal year Okay, it will not get done, probably in the next fiscal year you don't even have permissions to do it at this point. 449 00:49:38.970 --> 00:49:43.260 jay handal: You know, to me it's not a case of denying it because it's a bad project. 450 00:49:45.630 --> 00:50:04.950 jay handal: Again, if you read page six vendor and materials, because this will be on the pen mar golf course this will be entirely dependent on the city, I have nothing from the city in this packet that says they approve anyone going on their property and doing an approved. 451 00:50:06.570 --> 00:50:10.290 jay handal: So, for that reason i'm recommending denying this project. 452 00:50:12.360 --> 00:50:22.440 Daffodil Tyminski: And we have some public comment there's a motion to approve it, we have some public comment on that why don't we take that first and then we can have board discussion Sarah go ahead. 453 00:50:26.100 --> 00:50:41.220 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: hi Sarah waters here, I have to, I have a question with regard to this, and then I wanted to ask a question when I was listening to Jay talk is that possible or is that out of line with. 454 00:50:41.760 --> 00:50:44.790 jay handal: If it's on this item, you can you can ask the question. 455 00:50:45.300 --> 00:50:47.700 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay, when you buy them, you can. 456 00:50:48.000 --> 00:50:51.540 jay handal: You can ask it towards the end of the meeting for in a public comment. 457 00:50:52.290 --> 00:50:55.470 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay, towards the end of the meeting you guys all have general public comments. 458 00:50:55.830 --> 00:50:58.320 Daffodil Tyminski: We already had general public comment in the beginning of the meeting. 459 00:50:58.500 --> 00:51:05.700 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I know, but I couldn't get signed in and I don't know why the zoom link wasn't working so I didn't I signed in I don't know like. 460 00:51:06.120 --> 00:51:09.330 jay handal: I will, I will be happy to take your question before we adjourn. 461 00:51:09.600 --> 00:51:21.600 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay, thank you, I appreciate that um I just have a question I mean why pickle ball in in in that open space, I mean those those open spaces are really valuable to. 462 00:51:23.130 --> 00:51:35.610 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: For the trees and the biodiversity of those open spaces and I I I can't see the the rendering so I don't know where this pickle ball court is being conceived of but. 463 00:51:36.420 --> 00:51:45.300 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I would until I see that rendering i'd have to oppose it because i'm going to have to assume that they'll be pulling down trees and pulling out vegetation which. 464 00:51:45.750 --> 00:51:58.740 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: We sorely need our urban forest has been chopped down to the bone and the most recent years, so I would oppose it, unless I can see that no destruction of trees is occurring. 465 00:52:01.440 --> 00:52:03.480 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you, Sarah Robin go ahead. 466 00:52:06.600 --> 00:52:18.870 Robin: hi so um this like several others is possibly a great idea, but it seems that it's not at a stage where it is anywhere near being funded. 467 00:52:19.680 --> 00:52:33.780 Robin: reckon parks controls their property and yeah so one would have to have clearance from reckon parks and then they also have lots of money, including Mike bond and is sitting on $2 million of quimby funds. 468 00:52:34.860 --> 00:52:46.350 Robin: So you know, hopefully we'll have a new City Council person who will allow us to make improvements to our parks, but yeah This, I think this should be emotion to from neighborhood. 469 00:52:46.740 --> 00:52:58.410 Robin: To the board asking for support to go to reckon parks to ask for pickup ball, but I don't see that funding is needed at this time, or that it's identified in any way and then. 470 00:52:59.040 --> 00:53:06.990 Robin: Jay, as you said just giving away money to schools that's what you did on that first one, and that makes no sense that's all. 471 00:53:07.830 --> 00:53:08.580 Daffodil Tyminski: Thank you, Robin. 472 00:53:09.600 --> 00:53:10.110 Daffodil Tyminski: um. 473 00:53:12.330 --> 00:53:14.430 Daffodil Tyminski: Do we have any board comment. 474 00:53:15.480 --> 00:53:19.200 Daffodil Tyminski: i'll just say, for all the reasons J stated this project is going to fail. 475 00:53:19.740 --> 00:53:20.670 Daffodil Tyminski: So as much as. 476 00:53:21.150 --> 00:53:26.220 jay handal: I do want to read something from page five of the application okay. 477 00:53:27.450 --> 00:53:34.140 jay handal: The funding requested is for preparation of the site, the laying of the playing surface a path to the courts and a fence around the courts. 478 00:53:34.560 --> 00:53:45.390 jay handal: Exactly how much each element of the build that will cost is unknown because one the layout has not been finalized, and to that area of the park. 479 00:53:45.810 --> 00:53:58.290 jay handal: will already be undergoing renovations and so it is not yet clear what is already in the works to be completed path fence, etc, so I think I think Robin nailed it. 480 00:53:59.190 --> 00:54:08.700 jay handal: You know this is not ready for prime time because until you have permission from the park from the city there's really nothing to talk about. 481 00:54:10.860 --> 00:54:21.150 Daffodil Tyminski: Right, I mean just to be clear, we need to prepare some things that are going to cost to get to the point, to get permission from the city. 482 00:54:21.870 --> 00:54:27.900 Daffodil Tyminski: Because they're already developing yeah they're already there's a project, are you going on there, so the idea was to fund. 483 00:54:28.200 --> 00:54:33.870 Daffodil Tyminski: What we need to get to the city, so they can improve us, but I understand procedurally this is now backwards so. 484 00:54:34.260 --> 00:54:42.510 Daffodil Tyminski: And by the way, the city had told me before they would fund this up to $10,000, which is why we did the application, but of course Now I understand it's a different story so. 485 00:54:43.290 --> 00:54:50.070 Daffodil Tyminski: As much as I want to support the project i'm going to vote to deny it, because the city is now saying they won't do it right. 486 00:54:51.510 --> 00:54:52.560 jay handal: Any other public coming. 487 00:54:54.570 --> 00:54:59.460 jay handal: Seeing none we're going to move on the emotion, the emotion is to approve. 488 00:55:00.780 --> 00:55:16.350 jay handal: So keep that in mind, a yes vote is approval and no vote is denial is not to approve, we can then do a motion to deny should you want to do that so motion to approve all those abstaining. 489 00:55:18.840 --> 00:55:23.610 jay handal: All those against approving the project raise your hand on the screen. 490 00:55:25.230 --> 00:55:29.340 jay handal: I got 1234 Ivan how are you voting. 491 00:55:29.400 --> 00:55:31.590 Ivan: yeah i'm trying to hang on. 492 00:55:31.800 --> 00:55:32.610 jay handal: Is raise your hand. 493 00:55:33.630 --> 00:55:34.380 Daffodil Tyminski: raise your hand let. 494 00:55:34.500 --> 00:55:35.190 Ivan: me get my hair. 495 00:55:36.360 --> 00:55:36.960 Ivan: Your hand. 496 00:55:36.990 --> 00:55:38.040 jay handal: Your physical hand. 497 00:55:38.160 --> 00:55:39.480 Ivan: Okay, I got oh. 498 00:55:40.590 --> 00:55:41.040 Ivan: OK. 499 00:55:41.730 --> 00:55:48.810 jay handal: OK flow which anonymous the project is not approve, I think we can leave let it go at that. 500 00:55:50.670 --> 00:55:54.120 jay handal: The next item is to. 501 00:55:56.280 --> 00:55:57.480 jay handal: reallocate. 502 00:56:00.000 --> 00:56:11.700 jay handal: So I have to be honest and say I don't know on reallocating what your current allocations are because I don't have access, yet to. 503 00:56:13.620 --> 00:56:32.010 jay handal: The portal, what I can do is I should have it in three days when I get it, I can look and see where we voted today, and your monies need to be moved, we can do a I would, I would ask to move to allow me to bring it to the board. 504 00:56:33.150 --> 00:56:39.960 jay handal: directly with a recommendation to adjust the budget according to expenditures. 505 00:56:40.860 --> 00:56:55.980 james murez: yeah I would I would go along with that, I just want to understand now so better so you understand this, these were both the both 18 and 19 were brought up in a previous meeting and they were just estimations because we didn't have the mre at that point. 506 00:56:58.290 --> 00:57:01.680 james murez: And and i'm wondering if with the available. 507 00:57:02.190 --> 00:57:04.080 james murez: record, you would be making. 508 00:57:05.190 --> 00:57:15.330 james murez: To the budget adjustments, whether or not we also want to entertain the idea of taking $10,000 and carrying it over for next year. 509 00:57:15.540 --> 00:57:17.940 jay handal: So that's in the administrative packet. 510 00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:19.590 jay handal: that we need to do next. 511 00:57:19.710 --> 00:57:20.100 Okay. 512 00:57:22.560 --> 00:57:31.440 jay handal: So if if I could get someone to make a motion to allow me to bring full adjustments to the board directly based on. 513 00:57:32.640 --> 00:57:35.400 jay handal: having access to the portal. 514 00:57:36.300 --> 00:57:37.800 james murez: yeah i'll make that motion. 515 00:57:39.000 --> 00:57:40.200 Daffodil Tyminski: it's definite last second it. 516 00:57:42.840 --> 00:57:44.850 jay handal: is very public comment on that motion. 517 00:57:47.070 --> 00:57:51.030 jay handal: Seeing non public comment as close anybody standing net motion. 518 00:57:53.070 --> 00:57:54.540 jay handal: Anybody against that much. 519 00:57:56.310 --> 00:57:58.770 jay handal: Then that motion will pass unanimously. 520 00:57:59.790 --> 00:58:05.580 jay handal: Okay, so that takes care of the budget adjustments in the line I reallocating line items. 521 00:58:06.780 --> 00:58:11.970 jay handal: Number 15 is budget adjustments we're going to do the same that's part of that whole thing. 522 00:58:15.510 --> 00:58:19.260 jay handal: And then we have, I think our last item oh. 523 00:58:20.610 --> 00:58:24.030 james murez: Good i'm trying to keep up here anyway okay i'll come back and fix that in a minute. 524 00:58:24.240 --> 00:58:25.560 Daffodil Tyminski: Here i'm just getting some coffee. 525 00:58:26.250 --> 00:58:31.470 jay handal: So if you could scan all the way back to the budget packet. 526 00:58:34.950 --> 00:58:37.020 jay handal: I think it was the first item on the agenda. 527 00:58:38.640 --> 00:58:39.240 james murez: There it is. 528 00:58:39.960 --> 00:58:41.700 jay handal: Okay, so. 529 00:58:42.900 --> 00:58:47.820 jay handal: Everybody should have seen the 2022 2023 administrative packet. 530 00:58:49.560 --> 00:58:53.190 james murez: Would you like to share your screen with that, just so we have it in our recording. 531 00:58:54.660 --> 00:59:00.090 jay handal: I have it in hard copy I don't have this on this computer electronically. 532 00:59:00.840 --> 00:59:02.760 jay handal: Fortunately, but I do have. 533 00:59:02.790 --> 00:59:04.950 jay handal: I do have some questions we have to. 534 00:59:06.120 --> 00:59:07.620 jay handal: decide today. 535 00:59:08.130 --> 00:59:14.640 james murez: Let me stop sharing and see if I can quickly find it in my email and then bring it up okay perfect. 536 00:59:18.630 --> 00:59:20.700 jay handal: Who will be the second signer. 537 00:59:23.280 --> 00:59:24.960 Daffodil Tyminski: It staff it'll I am the second letter. 538 00:59:26.160 --> 00:59:26.670 jay handal: Okay. 539 00:59:27.960 --> 00:59:33.060 jay handal: And that will remain the same daffodil will you be the first card holder. 540 00:59:34.080 --> 00:59:45.090 Daffodil Tyminski: I have never had a card i'm i'm happy to do whatever you prefer it may make sense if you're a temporary so for the next year, we have. 541 00:59:46.200 --> 00:59:48.600 Daffodil Tyminski: um you know consistency. 542 00:59:49.230 --> 00:59:58.410 jay handal: Right i'm just to be clear, I cannot be the cardholder Okay, I am the card holder for West la and you can hold two cards. 543 00:59:58.710 --> 01:00:03.930 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay, and Sema also is probably a cardholder should be a cardholder because most of. 544 01:00:04.590 --> 01:00:04.980 Daffodil Tyminski: What i've. 545 01:00:05.100 --> 01:00:13.320 Sima Kostovetsky: ever been so i'm wondering if there's a wave because everybody comes to me for copies everybody comes to me for flyers etc. 546 01:00:14.820 --> 01:00:15.240 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah. 547 01:00:15.690 --> 01:00:19.830 james murez: So my only my only question with that is is. 548 01:00:20.970 --> 01:00:22.890 james murez: Is there any requirement. 549 01:00:24.120 --> 01:00:28.260 james murez: To get city approvals on things before credit cards are used. 550 01:00:28.710 --> 01:00:29.970 jay handal: yeah, it has to be in your budget. 551 01:00:30.420 --> 01:00:40.350 james murez: It has to be in the budget and, and so we have to make sure that anybody who has the card always checks that the budget amounts are being followed. 552 01:00:40.860 --> 01:00:45.540 james murez: And in the past, because it's always been the treasurer that's never been a problem. 553 01:00:45.870 --> 01:00:57.270 james murez: That will mean that both daffodil and Sema have to always keep in sync with whatever the budget is and i'm just pointing that out because we've had a lot of problems this past year. 554 01:00:58.200 --> 01:01:10.710 james murez: In in getting invoices and getting approvals prior to expenses being spent and that's caused a tremendous amount of difficulty for both vendors, as well as the board. 555 01:01:11.280 --> 01:01:25.020 jay handal: Right so again when someone brings up nobody should be spending anything, unless it is actually in the line item of the budget, so, if you look at page eight of the packet that I sent you. 556 01:01:25.500 --> 01:01:27.360 james murez: And i'm just bringing that up on the screen now. 557 01:01:27.540 --> 01:01:29.610 jay handal: Okay, so scroll the page eight. 558 01:01:32.850 --> 01:01:36.630 james murez: i'm going slowly, so the video has a chance to record. 559 01:01:36.930 --> 01:01:37.770 No problem. 560 01:01:42.420 --> 01:01:46.980 james murez: By the way, thank you for doing this, this is the first time i've ever seen one of these so nicely done. 561 01:01:49.620 --> 01:01:52.620 jay handal: At my job, keep you out of trouble. 562 01:01:54.000 --> 01:01:54.690 james murez: We like that. 563 01:01:59.700 --> 01:02:01.320 jay handal: All right, one more page. 564 01:02:05.580 --> 01:02:07.290 jay handal: Okay, so AJ. 565 01:02:08.520 --> 01:02:16.110 jay handal: you'll see annual budget funds 32,000 roll over phones 10,000 total budget 42,000. 566 01:02:17.340 --> 01:02:24.510 jay handal: operational expenses, these are the exact same expenses, this is what you had last year, and your budget. 567 01:02:25.650 --> 01:02:26.160 jay handal: Roughly. 568 01:02:27.360 --> 01:02:47.820 jay handal: On a bunch of office supplies 100 bucks for copies 500 for office equipment web maintenance your your apple one you know you've minute taker your storage facility in general operations and you refresh that totals $11,700 please scroll to the next page. 569 01:02:47.910 --> 01:02:49.560 Daffodil Tyminski: We probably need to adjust that, by the way. 570 01:02:50.340 --> 01:03:05.670 jay handal: Well, let let me go through and we'll talk about that outreach expenditures copies and printing 800 advertising promotion 1500 town halls 3000 Congress in neighborhoods 500 general outreach 4000. 571 01:03:06.180 --> 01:03:20.430 jay handal: And web upgrades 1000 for a total of 10,800 going down further election materials advertising and events I plugged in 15,000. 572 01:03:22.470 --> 01:03:35.520 jay handal: neighborhood purpose grants 2000 and Community improvement projects 2500 so who was that daffodils who came in and said yes may need to adjust it. 573 01:03:36.750 --> 01:03:46.500 Daffodil Tyminski: yeah I see, we can probably speak to it more directly, but we do have some X, we have in the past been underfunding some outreach stuff so. 574 01:03:47.580 --> 01:03:48.420 Daffodil Tyminski: went through this. 575 01:03:48.690 --> 01:03:56.940 jay handal: This is my suggestion to everybody Okay, this is a placeholder budget to make sure in July, you get your 42,000. 576 01:03:58.170 --> 01:04:03.540 jay handal: This budget can be amended at any given board meeting special or regular. 577 01:04:04.740 --> 01:04:16.200 jay handal: The outreach committee should sit down and put together a plan and bring it back to the board and say this is how we plan to spend our money. 578 01:04:16.710 --> 01:04:29.430 jay handal: We need more money for outreach the board can then decide what category, they want to take the money from and adjusted accordingly at that board me. 579 01:04:30.900 --> 01:04:51.810 jay handal: This is not a packet to everybody get into the nitty gritty This is basically mirroring pretty much what you had except with elections and the elections, by the way of based on your past history of 15,000 that's what you guys spend and a big chunk of that is outreach. 580 01:04:53.310 --> 01:04:54.630 jay handal: and working together with the. 581 01:04:54.630 --> 01:04:56.130 jay handal: Election yeah. 582 01:04:56.310 --> 01:05:10.830 Sima Kostovetsky: I may so I actually submitted my budget and knowing that may is is a pretty heavy month for budget, so I actually submitted my budget based on last year's administrative packet. 583 01:05:11.580 --> 01:05:16.320 Sima Kostovetsky: And I have an itemized in an email that I sent to our former treasure. 584 01:05:16.980 --> 01:05:31.230 Sima Kostovetsky: And I need $2,000 more This is because we are anticipating having some in person meetings so, for example, the refreshments need to go up for in person meeting. 585 01:05:31.590 --> 01:05:51.720 Sima Kostovetsky: My advertising and promotions needs to go up and my town halls need to go up, as well as my general outreach i'm happy to share my screen to show you how I itemized it again, it was based on last year's packet so I just asked for $2,000 more. 586 01:05:51.900 --> 01:05:55.260 jay handal: Human capital can you bring me up to that category. 587 01:05:55.740 --> 01:06:00.900 james murez: On your phone yeah Okay, I was gonna go back to letting her share hers but that's fine. 588 01:06:01.140 --> 01:06:09.960 Sima Kostovetsky: And and, if I may just a point of clarification, one of the ways that we tend to get in trouble, or at least I do. 589 01:06:10.770 --> 01:06:22.560 Sima Kostovetsky: That, I have a general let's say general outreach $4,000 That is my budget to support all of the committee's so, for example, if I want to make. 590 01:06:22.800 --> 01:06:35.610 Sima Kostovetsky: An outreach banner budget that's just generic for the dnc and it costs $300 that should come out of my general outreach budget right i'm very cognizant of how much money, I have. 591 01:06:36.840 --> 01:06:37.410 jay handal: Great so. 592 01:06:37.440 --> 01:06:40.470 Sima Kostovetsky: I don't need board approval for that Am I correct. 593 01:06:40.650 --> 01:06:53.670 jay handal: Well, what you do need board approval for is for the actual expenditure, if you don't in these categories, if you don't have specific vendors and amounts like like. 594 01:06:54.330 --> 01:07:08.010 jay handal: For existence West la we have frontier telephone, we have an office, so we have frontier telephone and frontier DSL frontier is named in the outreach expenditure. 595 01:07:08.550 --> 01:07:23.460 jay handal: Okay, we do our printing with phantom printing so phantom printing is in the expenditure so if I have $5,000 in printing from phantom I can spend $5,000 and not have to come back to the board. 596 01:07:24.240 --> 01:07:34.800 jay handal: But if I just say printing I now have to come back with a pro forma invoice from a vendor to get the board to approve the expenditure. 597 01:07:35.550 --> 01:07:39.630 Sima Kostovetsky: So I need to be specific, with my two vendors for something like that. 598 01:07:39.750 --> 01:07:40.170 jay handal: All right. 599 01:07:40.650 --> 01:07:47.610 Sima Kostovetsky: Okay, but also, but that also could be copying correct so that's a staples vendor or that's a. 600 01:07:47.670 --> 01:07:48.750 Sima Kostovetsky: letter kinko's. 601 01:07:48.990 --> 01:07:51.510 jay handal: One yeah pick one and that's where you're going you. 602 01:07:51.510 --> 01:07:52.140 Usually. 603 01:07:53.190 --> 01:07:55.650 Sima Kostovetsky: These are just placeholders correct. 604 01:07:55.920 --> 01:08:11.850 jay handal: doing all these numbers you're seeing here ought to get you your $42,000 in July, if you don't pass an administrative packet and I don't have a file by June in June, then you get $300 a month. 605 01:08:13.620 --> 01:08:30.480 jay handal: So you know it's it's punish the good people, so you know I love provolone cheese, but it's flat, but I really love Swiss cheese because it's got a lot of holes and I look for the holes, I can get through to get me what I need so. 606 01:08:30.540 --> 01:08:31.620 jay handal: The whole here. 607 01:08:31.830 --> 01:08:38.670 jay handal: Is it just past the budget with the administrative package, and you can always come back and say, Mr treasurer. 608 01:08:39.240 --> 01:08:45.120 jay handal: You know we're going to the board, I have a budget meeting, I want to amend the budget to do listen that net. 609 01:08:45.510 --> 01:08:54.150 jay handal: And then we look at all the other categories and go Okay, I think we can steal it from Community improvement or we can take some of it from. 610 01:08:54.450 --> 01:09:00.510 jay handal: You know here, you know other outreach monies or whatever printing and advertising or whatever. 611 01:09:01.200 --> 01:09:09.570 jay handal: You know, you can move those around you can move those categories around anytime during the year you know, but you got to have a budget into the city. 612 01:09:10.200 --> 01:09:17.850 jay handal: So you get your money in July and that's all i'm advocating here, you know you may be 100% right on your numbers of what you know you need. 613 01:09:18.570 --> 01:09:27.960 jay handal: But for today because I didn't have any of those numbers for today's budget meeting all I want to do is pass this packet get it to the board, let the board pass it. 614 01:09:28.500 --> 01:09:43.890 jay handal: i'll file it and then i'll work with you to amend the budget so that in July, you know, maybe my last meeting with you guys if that's the case you know we can make a motion to make adjustments to the budget and then get them down to the city. 615 01:09:45.660 --> 01:09:46.560 jay handal: that's all i'm saying. 616 01:09:49.050 --> 01:09:53.490 james murez: see my what he's saying makes perfect sense to me, we can fix it later let's just get through this now. 617 01:09:54.810 --> 01:09:55.740 Daffodil Tyminski: Hema you're on you. 618 01:09:58.380 --> 01:09:59.220 Daffodil Tyminski: you're still muted. 619 01:09:59.610 --> 01:10:04.290 Sima Kostovetsky: I still need my extra $2,000 because I submitted that for this purpose. 620 01:10:04.500 --> 01:10:17.700 jay handal: Okay, so same if you could send me your email with all a breakdown, because I haven't seen it, you know i'd be happy to look at the other numbers and see you know where that 2000 can come from. 621 01:10:18.780 --> 01:10:19.320 jay handal: You know. 622 01:10:21.090 --> 01:10:23.640 james murez: But it expedited if she just shares her screen at this point. 623 01:10:23.850 --> 01:10:25.200 Sima Kostovetsky: and happy to do that. 624 01:10:25.710 --> 01:10:29.310 james murez: You can just go ahead and do it, I can either stop or you can just take over sharing. 625 01:10:29.880 --> 01:10:38.760 jay handal: yeah I mean i'm looking at what was done last year and operations, you know you had 3500 in web maintenance. 626 01:10:40.110 --> 01:10:42.600 james murez: And I don't remember what the Web things costing us I. 627 01:10:42.660 --> 01:10:56.280 james murez: But 3500 seems like a hell of a lot and the apple one staffing, we did not do it all in the previous year, so if you want to just grab that apple one staffing you could take 2000 out of there without any problem at all yeah. 628 01:10:56.310 --> 01:10:57.420 jay handal: I mean you know we. 629 01:10:58.110 --> 01:11:13.590 james murez: Use we use know apple one staffing and I see no reason at this point that we will going forward unless for some reason we have to respond to a cpr a request that requires a tremendous amount of redacting. 630 01:11:14.190 --> 01:11:18.780 jay handal: So i'm going to change apple one staffing to 1000. 631 01:11:23.010 --> 01:11:28.440 james murez: And there's there's her budget on screen Sema can you enlarge at it all zoom in on it so it's a little bit bigger. 632 01:11:31.680 --> 01:11:33.990 jay handal: same way, do you want that 2000. 633 01:11:35.700 --> 01:11:36.390 jay handal: Town Hall. 634 01:11:36.540 --> 01:11:37.290 jay handal: Sound Jose. 635 01:11:38.970 --> 01:12:07.650 Sima Kostovetsky: arison of what you put up um so I I don't but you could see the meetings refreshments that went up that's $900 my general outreach went up by 1000 that was $5,000 i'm i'm so sorry I can't see, I have yours, on the other, screen, let me see if I can see where that's coming out of. 636 01:12:08.790 --> 01:12:16.080 Sima Kostovetsky: But it was mainly that some of it was refreshments and then also making allowances for live meetings in general outreach. 637 01:12:16.680 --> 01:12:22.140 james murez: Well, and i'm not sure why you have web upgrades in there that are just becoming under the other category above. 638 01:12:22.740 --> 01:12:25.320 james murez: I outreach is not making upgrades to the. 639 01:12:25.620 --> 01:12:26.460 james murez: To the website and. 640 01:12:26.700 --> 01:12:33.690 Sima Kostovetsky: I get that I wanted to give myself a little bit of extra cushion because we're the ones that get yelled out for. 641 01:12:34.110 --> 01:12:34.980 james murez: yeah but you're not. 642 01:12:35.040 --> 01:12:36.210 Sima Kostovetsky: Great site. 643 01:12:36.240 --> 01:12:45.720 james murez: I understand, but it won't come out of your budget that you shouldn't have anything in there at all for web upgrades That would be a communications item, and that would go through vicki and and. 644 01:12:46.140 --> 01:12:55.410 james murez: You could certainly make the recommendations and do the work, but the actual budget item would come from the Communications Committee or the communications chair, I should say. 645 01:12:55.920 --> 01:12:58.950 Sima Kostovetsky: i'm happy to let that go that'll put me down a. 646 01:12:58.950 --> 01:13:03.600 Sima Kostovetsky: $12,000 only give us 1200 dollars extra. 647 01:13:04.530 --> 01:13:08.280 jay handal: here's what i've done if everyone can just go with me for a second. 648 01:13:10.710 --> 01:13:11.580 jay handal: Let me finish. 649 01:13:13.590 --> 01:13:16.650 jay handal: A mile away allocating $12,800. 650 01:13:19.440 --> 01:13:22.950 jay handal: As per what you have on your sheet samer. 651 01:13:23.760 --> 01:13:30.000 jay handal: Thank you i've moved so go back Jim to the sheet that I sent you

i'll look. 654 01:13:43.980 --> 01:13:46.740 jay handal: Is when I wish I had that jeopardy, you know that. 655 01:13:47.850 --> 01:13:48.540 james murez: it's up. 656 01:13:49.140 --> 01:13:58.050 jay handal: Alright, so copy BA BA BA BA BA BA BA BA outreach expenditures not not operational go to the next one. 657 01:13:58.890 --> 01:14:02.460 james murez: hold on one, second, let me make the 10 a little bit lighter and then I can mark it up. 658 01:14:03.060 --> 01:14:03.480 Okay. 659 01:14:07.770 --> 01:14:33.270 jay handal: Good go to the next Friday, though, so it's going to be the following copies and printing 800 advertising promotion 1700 town halls 4000 Congress 500 general outreach 5000 web upgrades 800 and refreshments 900 for a total of 12,800. 660 01:14:35.910 --> 01:14:39.270 james murez: This is not the best way to mark this up, but. 661 01:14:39.330 --> 01:14:40.170 jay handal: it's like okay. 662 01:14:41.490 --> 01:14:43.890 jay handal: So what that means. 663 01:14:52.140 --> 01:14:58.680 Sima Kostovetsky: And i'm very generous as people know so if we need to do, money we need if I need to give money to something that's. 664 01:15:00.300 --> 01:15:01.380 Sima Kostovetsky: You know, comes up. 665 01:15:03.480 --> 01:15:03.930 jay handal: Right. 666 01:15:03.960 --> 01:15:05.040 Sima Kostovetsky: Fine, was sharing. 667 01:15:05.340 --> 01:15:07.980 jay handal: So what what i'm doing Ivan. 668 01:15:08.670 --> 01:15:10.740 jay handal: And every Ivan in particular is you. 669 01:15:10.800 --> 01:15:11.760 jay handal: tend to be doing. 670 01:15:13.680 --> 01:15:14.610 jay handal: elections. 671 01:15:15.750 --> 01:15:17.070 jay handal: Is I took. 672 01:15:18.120 --> 01:15:21.720 jay handal: 2000 from elections, elections are now. 673 01:15:28.260 --> 01:15:39.930 jay handal: Bearing in mind that you know you have a lot of money in outreach and printing that you might be able to commingle your guys using some of that for election as well. 674 01:15:40.830 --> 01:15:52.950 jay handal: But so taking that and that's it you're balanced you balanced and $42,000 you have a budget to present see most should be happy Ivan should be pissed and everyone goes on. 675 01:15:55.530 --> 01:15:56.370 Daffodil Tyminski: you're muted Sema. 676 01:15:56.910 --> 01:15:59.820 Sima Kostovetsky: Ivan are you okay with that because wait. 677 01:15:59.880 --> 01:16:04.140 Sima Kostovetsky: sorry about what Jim suggested about taking money out of apple one. 678 01:16:06.510 --> 01:16:09.330 Ivan: So you saying I don't. 679 01:16:10.320 --> 01:16:11.850 Ivan: I don't know if i'm doing it again. 680 01:16:12.990 --> 01:16:14.310 jay handal: is another story by. 681 01:16:15.510 --> 01:16:26.550 Ivan: them so i'm trying to increase your page until they give us the details it's really hard to plan anything you know, are we going to be in person. 682 01:16:28.110 --> 01:16:37.800 Ivan: You know other polls, is going to be open on election day is it going to be all vote by mail, yet I mean until they give us the guidelines, how do you budget for it. 683 01:16:40.920 --> 01:16:50.820 james murez: Well we'll adjust will adjust the funding, later on, at this point, I think we just want to get through this we're into this meeting over an hour, if we can get through this the meeting is over. 684 01:16:51.870 --> 01:16:55.560 jay handal: So again, what i'm going to do is. 685 01:16:56.910 --> 01:17:00.480 jay handal: i'm going to take 1000 i'm going to get rid of the apple one completely. 686 01:17:05.940 --> 01:17:08.250 jay handal: And office and operational. 687 01:17:11.370 --> 01:17:18.300 jay handal: So that's going to be gone and then going to add 1000 back into. 688 01:17:20.160 --> 01:17:23.670 jay handal: Election so you get 14,000 so you can only be half past that. 689 01:17:24.810 --> 01:17:27.480 james murez: So i'm not you'll have to send that to me because I don't. 690 01:17:27.840 --> 01:17:32.460 jay handal: i'm going to scan it and send it to everybody yeah because you asked me, by now, so I just. 691 01:17:33.180 --> 01:17:52.470 jay handal: Okay, so let's let's recap real quick and then we're done so going down through the pages first thing i'm going to need is daffodil and Sema you guys are going to have to email me your actual name your board position your email and your phone number, so I can fill those in fun the sheets. 692 01:17:54.120 --> 01:17:54.960 jay handal: Secondly. 693 01:17:56.130 --> 01:18:00.480 jay handal: we're going to look at the expenditures so. 694 01:18:01.740 --> 01:18:05.040 jay handal: Both office operational will be 8700. 695 01:18:06.300 --> 01:18:22.770 jay handal: OK that 100 for office supplies 100 for copies 500 for office equipment 3500 for wait web maintenance 3800 for storage 400 for general operations 304 refreshments. 696 01:18:27.540 --> 01:18:42.480 jay handal: So I have refreshments in two different places guys I have it under general and then I have it under outreach So the question is, do you need it in both places or can I eliminate the 300 in office operational. 697 01:18:42.840 --> 01:18:46.410 james murez: Why don't you take it out of the office operations and put it into the outreach budget. 698 01:18:48.300 --> 01:18:52.110 jay handal: Okay, because I already put 900 in as per request. 699 01:18:52.140 --> 01:18:55.320 james murez: yeah we'll still have extra we'll figure it out later will readjust more. 700 01:18:55.410 --> 01:18:58.050 james murez: Okay smiling which, which is his good side. 701 01:18:58.740 --> 01:19:01.200 jay handal: Alright, so i'm going to make that one. 702 01:19:02.880 --> 01:19:05.460 jay handal: And this is why I do everything in pencil. 703 01:19:08.190 --> 01:19:08.670 jay handal: Okay. 704 01:19:09.300 --> 01:19:09.720 Ivan: So. 705 01:19:09.780 --> 01:19:09.960 All right. 706 01:19:11.760 --> 01:19:12.210 Ivan: Great. 707 01:19:12.540 --> 01:19:24.990 Ivan: yeah there's one other item on Monday shirts included if we and again we don't know yet, but if we go back to live meetings, we have to pay for Rentals school. 708 01:19:26.010 --> 01:19:26.640 jay handal: Right. 709 01:19:29.460 --> 01:19:31.200 jay handal: So you've got. 710 01:19:33.600 --> 01:19:37.020 jay handal: you've got $4,000 in there for town halls. 711 01:19:38.160 --> 01:19:40.890 jay handal: Okay, different and. 712 01:19:41.070 --> 01:19:42.570 Ivan: You have right Sema. 713 01:19:45.450 --> 01:19:45.930 And you had. 714 01:19:46.980 --> 01:19:50.190 jay handal: $5,000 in Nam for general outreach. 715 01:19:54.450 --> 01:19:54.870 jay handal: So. 716 01:19:54.900 --> 01:20:04.140 james murez: That, I think we should probably assume that whatever we're doing now is going to be done and need adjustments. 717 01:20:04.200 --> 01:20:05.010 jay handal: hundred percent. 718 01:20:05.070 --> 01:20:11.430 james murez: And if we go back to live meetings, the city's already made it fairly clear that those live meetings are going to be hybrids. 719 01:20:11.880 --> 01:20:16.740 james murez: And if we do a hybrid meaning we're going to need equipment to be able to do the hybrid meetings. 720 01:20:17.280 --> 01:20:23.970 james murez: And that's going to cost us a few thousand dollars we're going to have to figure these things out later guys we don't have all the details now. 721 01:20:24.300 --> 01:20:32.670 james murez: We have no clue what the city is going to throw at us let's get through this thing the way that Jay has proposed it and adjust it once we know more. 722 01:20:33.540 --> 01:20:44.160 james murez: In the meantime, we have no major expenses coming up for the next month or two, we have no town hall meetings or anything else, after the election, there may be reasons to do another. 723 01:20:44.550 --> 01:20:52.890 james murez: Candidate forum or or some other kind of event that we want to do, based on where the run offs are going to occur, and who we want to hear from. 724 01:20:53.190 --> 01:21:04.470 james murez: So these are issues that will come up in the future we don't need to hear about them now, we don't have to figure out every detail let's just get out of let's get done and and adjust at once we have the detail. 725 01:21:04.500 --> 01:21:06.300 james murez: that's my that's my suggestion. 726 01:21:06.570 --> 01:21:19.050 jay handal: And again, I keep telling you guys, this is a placeholder budget, you know you guys, as you get into the year just like we did today, you know we're going to have to move stuff around. 727 01:21:19.770 --> 01:21:27.390 jay handal: You know so that's just something that's going to happen it happens in every neighborhood Council so yes Sema. 728 01:21:27.750 --> 01:21:37.950 Sima Kostovetsky: So, forgive me i'm jumping a little bit I just don't know where to ask this question, but to jim's point about buying equipment for hybrid meetings where the Budget Committee correct. 729 01:21:38.400 --> 01:21:44.040 Sima Kostovetsky: and clearly we have money left over for the end of the year, I know you're saying, not to rush that this is coming up in our meeting. 730 01:21:44.610 --> 01:21:58.620 Sima Kostovetsky: Is that something that we can approve for this year, so we have the equipment if we're going to start having hybrid meetings, because that's pretty much I think whether that happens in the winter, or in the fall it's a done deal so i'm. 731 01:22:00.060 --> 01:22:07.200 Sima Kostovetsky: I don't know if i'm asking this in the right place, but it just seems to me in an election year we're not going to have money for that. 732 01:22:07.680 --> 01:22:10.830 jay handal: So let's do this let's vote on the packet. 733 01:22:11.970 --> 01:22:13.320 jay handal: And then let's go back to. 734 01:22:13.320 --> 01:22:35.370 jay handal: Your question because it's about timing and vendors and amounts and equipment, you know, and we can talk about that real quick, but so i'm going to ask someone to make a motion to approve the amended budget and I will send it all out to you after I get back until i'm seeing most information. 735 01:22:35.520 --> 01:22:37.170 james murez: This is Jim and i'll make the motion. 736 01:22:37.950 --> 01:22:40.830 jay handal: So I got a most most him by murata second by. 737 01:22:41.100 --> 01:22:44.340 jay handal: email Saima is there any public comment. 738 01:22:46.710 --> 01:22:47.520 Daffodil Tyminski: I seen on. 739 01:22:48.750 --> 01:22:52.680 jay handal: Public comment is closed, we will take the boat Is there anyone abstaining. 740 01:22:54.120 --> 01:22:57.060 jay handal: Is there anyone against moving this forward to the board. 741 01:22:58.350 --> 01:23:02.550 jay handal: Then that budget packet is approved, thank you guys. 742 01:23:05.070 --> 01:23:10.800 jay handal: Painful by new thought so let's go back now and talk about. 743 01:23:12.690 --> 01:23:15.390 jay handal: seamless question you know. 744 01:23:18.240 --> 01:23:20.040 jay handal: The issue, the issue is. 745 01:23:21.450 --> 01:23:32.010 jay handal: If if I get the p card quickly and you guys can identify a vendor and the equipment, you want. 746 01:23:33.030 --> 01:23:43.140 jay handal: I can ask the city to increase my spending limit, because the truth of the matter is, you have 28,000 less than 10,000 less the school. 747 01:23:44.010 --> 01:23:44.610 james murez: So you got to. 748 01:23:45.120 --> 01:23:45.420 james murez: Save. 749 01:23:45.600 --> 01:23:52.500 jay handal: By 5000 which was fine so there's 15,000 at a 28 so you're going to lose $13,000. 750 01:23:53.040 --> 01:24:02.910 james murez: And so to that point, I could put together the equipment list to do hybrid meetings, based on my understanding of what video would be required. 751 01:24:04.440 --> 01:24:06.840 james murez: In probably before the end of the day. 752 01:24:07.500 --> 01:24:14.790 jay handal: So if you can do that and and identify where we would buy it from and what the cost will be. 753 01:24:15.150 --> 01:24:31.320 jay handal: yeah, then I can ask the city, when I get the p card to increase my expenditure limit and we can put that on as a special at the board meeting a special expenditure for this year okay. 754 01:24:31.770 --> 01:24:38.010 Daffodil Tyminski: Jay it's daffodil our communications officer, is in the audience and she this is really her area. 755 01:24:39.060 --> 01:24:40.230 Daffodil Tyminski: um so. 756 01:24:40.470 --> 01:24:42.300 james murez: yeah why don't we get her to speak to it if she. 757 01:24:42.300 --> 01:24:44.670 Daffodil Tyminski: has she has her hand she has her hand raise so. 758 01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:48.510 Daffodil Tyminski: that's vicki holiday vicki why don't you go ahead and give us a sense. 759 01:24:48.810 --> 01:24:49.710 Vicki Halliday: Am I unmuted. 760 01:24:49.950 --> 01:24:58.800 Vicki Halliday: Yes, you are unmuted I think this merits a little bit of internal discussion before this goes to budget, I know that Jim and I differ on how this hybrid. 761 01:25:00.000 --> 01:25:08.370 Vicki Halliday: equipment should work um and I think that, I mean if you want to put in just a general number for whatever we have great. 762 01:25:08.880 --> 01:25:19.830 Vicki Halliday: But I do not want to be cut out of this process, as I have been supporting this budget meeting with everybody saying oh we're going to do this or that know this this myriad some discussion and I demand it. 763 01:25:23.190 --> 01:25:24.240 Vicki Halliday: that's all I have to say. 764 01:25:24.510 --> 01:25:25.530 jay handal: Well okay. 765 01:25:25.710 --> 01:25:28.260 Daffodil Tyminski: Oh, so now is the time right to discuss or. 766 01:25:28.410 --> 01:25:34.470 Vicki Halliday: Well, we can't discuss the equipment this very minute daffodil that's what i'm saying, I think that there's a differing of opinion. 767 01:25:35.160 --> 01:25:48.390 Vicki Halliday: On what equipment is needed, and how it would be used if you've got a budget number that you just want to swat into cover that great, but I don't think now is the time or the place to be discussing equipment when. 768 01:25:48.450 --> 01:25:51.120 Vicki Halliday: The situation in general has not been discussed. 769 01:25:51.180 --> 01:26:03.570 jay handal: Okay, so no nobody here is discussing equipment, let me be clear my Directive as treasurer to the committee, and especially to you and to miss the miras. 770 01:26:04.200 --> 01:26:17.790 jay handal: Is you have a limited amount of time, if you want to buy equipment for next year's meetings, out of this year's $13,000 that's going back to the city. 771 01:26:18.570 --> 01:26:28.410 jay handal: You need to get the equipment with you need to get a pro forma invoice from the vendor and they have to be able to take a debit card. 772 01:26:29.070 --> 01:26:50.670 jay handal: And then I have to get approval for a one time, increase of limit on the card, so we can spend it and not lose the money and get the equipment, if you guys can't get together in the next couple of days and do that, then the city will get their $13,000 back it's just that cool. 773 01:26:51.240 --> 01:26:51.840 Vicki Halliday: Thank you Jay. 774 01:26:52.110 --> 01:26:52.560 Okay. 775 01:26:54.000 --> 01:26:57.960 james murez: Good jake could you just repeat, so it was the equipment list of pro forma invoice what was that, after that. 776 01:26:59.550 --> 01:27:02.160 jay handal: I need a pro forma invoice from the vendor. 777 01:27:02.340 --> 01:27:02.640 james murez: yep. 778 01:27:02.730 --> 01:27:06.960 jay handal: Oh, that I can then go back to the city, they have to be able to take a credit card. 779 01:27:07.380 --> 01:27:22.860 jay handal: Okay, credit card, and then I can go back to the city and asked for an increase in the limit on the spending card so, then I can get the card swipe it and get the product on this year's budget. 780 01:27:23.100 --> 01:27:25.170 james murez: Do you happen to know what the limit is at present. 781 01:27:25.680 --> 01:27:27.060 jay handal: Oh no limits low it's like. 782 01:27:28.500 --> 01:27:29.340 james murez: thousand bucks. 783 01:27:29.400 --> 01:27:36.990 jay handal: Like 1500 bucks or something like that, but you know they'll increase it to $20,000 if I have to you know for equipment. 784 01:27:37.380 --> 01:27:38.640 Sima Kostovetsky: Okay Jay. 785 01:27:39.030 --> 01:27:41.190 Sima Kostovetsky: If I may i'm sorry go ahead. 786 01:27:41.760 --> 01:27:47.310 Daffodil Tyminski: No, I was gonna say two things one Jim why don't you mean vicki and Sema get together on this, so we have. 787 01:27:47.580 --> 01:27:48.930 Daffodil Tyminski: A consensus on the equipment. 788 01:27:49.800 --> 01:27:55.110 Daffodil Tyminski: um and to Jay I think there's a couple of other things too that we do need. 789 01:27:56.310 --> 01:28:02.010 Daffodil Tyminski: Like, for example, our outreach table is an extremely rickety table with two very uncomfortable chairs. 790 01:28:03.540 --> 01:28:14.760 Daffodil Tyminski: We need a banner right seem I don't know that that yeah so we have a little list of things that we can obviously pull together very quickly and get you this information, but. 791 01:28:16.380 --> 01:28:21.030 Daffodil Tyminski: You know just expect that in addition to asking for some money for equipment there's some other. 792 01:28:21.180 --> 01:28:25.350 Daffodil Tyminski: Just necessities, that we have been planning on doing for months it just hasn't been done yet. 793 01:28:25.560 --> 01:28:36.210 jay handal: Right, so any of those expenditures that are not specifically spelled out in the current year budget, you will need to have one the board meeting that we have next week. 794 01:28:37.800 --> 01:28:39.960 james murez: Okay, so is the idea that we. 795 01:28:41.670 --> 01:28:44.370 james murez: Take that money out of this year spending. 796 01:28:44.370 --> 01:28:45.480 jay handal: Yes, yeah. 797 01:28:45.540 --> 01:28:53.370 james murez: yeah so that we don't have to submit a performer invoice if we already have the budget item listed is that my understanding. 798 01:28:54.330 --> 01:28:56.760 jay handal: You don't have the budget item listed. 799 01:28:56.790 --> 01:28:58.500 jay handal: For equipment for. 800 01:28:59.520 --> 01:29:02.940 jay handal: You know, online or hybrid meets. 801 01:29:03.000 --> 01:29:12.390 james murez: No, no i'm saying for a banner for table for these other things, how much how much detail had has to be provided to approve those at the board meeting. 802 01:29:12.600 --> 01:29:22.020 jay handal: So if if you have banners in your out current outreach budget, then you can buy them if you don't, then it has to be approved by the board. 803 01:29:22.500 --> 01:29:22.800 So. 804 01:29:24.720 --> 01:29:26.670 Sima Kostovetsky: This is where we get confused. 805 01:29:26.850 --> 01:29:46.920 Sima Kostovetsky: I have money left over in my budget under general outreach I should be able to just buy a $250 banner with that because we use phantom as well, so you know we either use phantom or super fast that's always been our vendors, as long as i've been in you know in this position. 806 01:29:47.130 --> 01:29:56.700 Sima Kostovetsky: Right that's where it gets confusing because which, like like if it's under my general budget and it's a $250 item to I have to still ask the board. 807 01:29:56.940 --> 01:30:11.040 jay handal: So, generally, what the city says is, if you just have general outreach dollars, when you are ready to spend it, you have to identify the vendor and the amount. 808 01:30:12.390 --> 01:30:12.750 Sima Kostovetsky: got it. 809 01:30:13.500 --> 01:30:18.990 jay handal: So i'm looking i'm looking strictly at an abundance of caution right now. 810 01:30:19.410 --> 01:30:24.030 jay handal: Because we're at the wire and I don't want them rejecting anything and holding your money. 811 01:30:24.600 --> 01:30:28.320 Sima Kostovetsky: I will I that'll be ready by within the next 24. 812 01:30:28.350 --> 01:30:28.980 jay handal: hours and. 813 01:30:29.820 --> 01:30:37.020 Sima Kostovetsky: If I just make clarify this wasn't meant to step on vicki's toes because obviously vicki and I work very closely together. 814 01:30:37.350 --> 01:30:38.310 Daffodil Tyminski: i'm just. 815 01:30:38.850 --> 01:30:39.390 Sima Kostovetsky: that's all. 816 01:30:39.600 --> 01:30:46.920 Daffodil Tyminski: I was just about to say vicki also has her hand raised and she has is also probably in need of something here for communications and. 817 01:30:47.280 --> 01:30:49.650 Daffodil Tyminski: Give me one second guys I need to step off for one SEC. 818 01:30:51.450 --> 01:30:52.170 james murez: Go ahead vicki. 819 01:30:53.130 --> 01:30:54.900 Vicki Halliday: Know i've got nothing. 820 01:30:56.160 --> 01:30:56.610 jay handal: Okay. 821 01:30:57.090 --> 01:30:59.070 james murez: So where's your where's your hand up for something else. 822 01:30:59.280 --> 01:31:01.020 Vicki Halliday: I didn't take it down from before Jim. 823 01:31:01.140 --> 01:31:02.250 james murez: Not a problem, thank you. 824 01:31:02.910 --> 01:31:11.130 jay handal: So the bottom line, you have some money to spend and you have more flexibility in time with the p card providers oh my. 825 01:31:11.130 --> 01:31:11.460 God. 826 01:31:13.440 --> 01:31:22.170 jay handal: You know, so you know let's try and spend down some of that $13,000 so you don't lose it all. 827 01:31:23.400 --> 01:31:30.270 Daffodil Tyminski: Can Can I make a motion for the Budget Committee to approve the expenditure of remaining money left in the budget, on item. 828 01:31:31.980 --> 01:31:32.820 jay handal: not on the agenda. 829 01:31:34.980 --> 01:31:35.370 Daffodil Tyminski: Okay. 830 01:31:35.730 --> 01:31:43.740 jay handal: Not only agenda you can do it, but again, we can bring it to the board as a the most. 831 01:31:45.900 --> 01:31:46.170 Daffodil Tyminski: You know. 832 01:31:46.260 --> 01:31:48.870 james murez: hey, let me just ask a question about that we do have. 833 01:31:49.140 --> 01:31:52.740 james murez: an item farther down on the agenda that we called reallocating the budget. 834 01:31:53.310 --> 01:32:00.660 james murez: Right so would that answer daffodils ability to be able to to address the items that she wants to reallocate it to. 835 01:32:02.340 --> 01:32:04.920 jay handal: Well, it would it would address the the. 836 01:32:06.330 --> 01:32:15.060 jay handal: categories that you're allocating in the budget it won't address an individual item, you know, like phantom printing. 837 01:32:15.750 --> 01:32:18.660 Daffodil Tyminski: It doesn't make a difference, though, because it would have to go to the board anyway. 838 01:32:18.780 --> 01:32:22.410 Daffodil Tyminski: Right, so if if we're as a committee, deciding that we will. 839 01:32:23.490 --> 01:32:31.140 Daffodil Tyminski: allow ourselves to be bypassed for these remaining expenditures, then you know we'd have to discuss it with the board anyway so it's fine. 840 01:32:31.920 --> 01:32:38.070 jay handal: Right, I mean bottom line is you got 13 grand to spend and you're running out of time, so. 841 01:32:39.840 --> 01:32:45.750 james murez: Well we'll have one more board meeting and that's it assuming we can get a quorum in between now and. 842 01:32:46.440 --> 01:32:59.700 james murez: Tuesday at noon, I was assuming that was the cut off, so we still had time to submit the paperwork on Tuesday that leaves us four hours, I guess, to submit whatever paperwork comes out of a board meeting if we had a morning meeting on Tuesday. 843 01:33:02.100 --> 01:33:04.470 james murez: That divine bear that give us enough. 844 01:33:04.470 --> 01:33:10.800 jay handal: Time yeah well that's your maximum I mean truthfully i'd like to see you guys have a board meeting Monday. 845 01:33:11.190 --> 01:33:12.030 jay handal: Right setting a. 846 01:33:12.420 --> 01:33:16.200 james murez: national holiday and i'm not sure we'll get corn, but we're still working on, I hear ya. 847 01:33:16.500 --> 01:33:16.830 worries. 848 01:33:18.180 --> 01:33:29.010 jay handal: I have to scan in you know and and open up a new vendor, and I mean the things I need to do in the portal, in order to get what we did today hey. 849 01:33:29.670 --> 01:33:33.990 jay handal: OK OK, now the good news is, we only approved, I think one project today. 850 01:33:34.470 --> 01:33:38.190 jay handal: Correct so the board only has to approve one project. 851 01:33:39.030 --> 01:33:41.460 james murez: And, and the end the next year's budget which. 852 01:33:41.520 --> 01:33:42.240 james murez: Again, is. 853 01:33:42.450 --> 01:33:43.830 jay handal: The administrative package. 854 01:33:43.890 --> 01:33:47.820 james murez: Right, which is just basically a placeholder like you said yeah. 855 01:33:48.210 --> 01:33:50.070 james murez: So that that that should be fairly quick. 856 01:33:50.310 --> 01:33:57.840 james murez: And then, and then any of these other budget items that we want to do, whether it's a hybrid meeting stuffer banners for outreach whatever tables whatever. 857 01:33:58.920 --> 01:34:07.470 james murez: yeah so that shouldn't be and will you help me out after the meeting and and tell me how I write that. 858 01:34:09.150 --> 01:34:16.530 james murez: agenda item up, so it goes on the budget correctly so so the budget item gets put on the board with the correct wording so we. 859 01:34:17.610 --> 01:34:21.660 james murez: That we that we're doing stuff at the board meeting, rather than at the budget meeting. 860 01:34:22.110 --> 01:34:27.810 jay handal: Right okay yeah I can I can draft you a template motion. 861 01:34:27.990 --> 01:34:35.100 jay handal: perfect and just send it over to you and then whatever items you get you can fill in the below. 862 01:34:35.460 --> 01:34:38.130 jay handal: fill in the blank so we'll do one motion. 863 01:34:38.460 --> 01:34:44.460 jay handal: It says approval by the board for existing funds outstanding and the annual budget for the following items. 864 01:34:44.760 --> 01:34:46.980 jay handal: Okay banners phantom printing. 865 01:34:47.130 --> 01:34:48.630 james murez: $400 okay. 866 01:34:48.750 --> 01:34:49.920 jay handal: You know, whatever. 867 01:34:50.280 --> 01:34:51.210 james murez: Alright perfect. 868 01:34:53.160 --> 01:34:55.680 Ivan: Okay Okay, can I ask a similar question. 869 01:34:56.190 --> 01:34:58.140 jay handal: we've been asking anybody a question you want. 870 01:34:58.140 --> 01:34:58.920 Ivan: yeah okay. 871 01:35:00.240 --> 01:35:02.640 Ivan: Do you want to bring up about the printing supplies. 872 01:35:06.300 --> 01:35:07.530 Sima Kostovetsky: Can you repeat that Ivan. 873 01:35:07.890 --> 01:35:11.220 Ivan: You want to bring up about the printing supplies. 874 01:35:11.400 --> 01:35:17.520 Sima Kostovetsky: Well, I think I think it's all part and parcel and I can have that discussion with Jay offline but. 875 01:35:17.580 --> 01:35:18.120 Sima Kostovetsky:

888 01:36:21.210 --> 01:36:31.740 james murez: vicki mentioned that to me and I did not have a chance, yet to get into to the cheap G suite at Google to fix whatever the problem is, but I will do that later. 889 01:36:31.740 --> 01:36:37.170 Daffodil Tyminski: Today I am just concerned from a records retention, you know standpoint so just so we. 890 01:36:37.230 --> 01:36:46.350 james murez: Why don't you do this daffodil CC it to treasure Andre already does not have access to the account and then, when that when the time comes, it will already be. 891 01:36:47.250 --> 01:36:59.130 james murez: In in the treasures account for the permanent ongoing record so send it to Jay as as perhaps the CC and make the the to treasurer and then he'll have the copy and and. 892 01:37:00.480 --> 01:37:03.750 james murez: And that way, the the permanent record will show that it went to the treasure. 893 01:37:04.920 --> 01:37:07.680 Sima Kostovetsky: Okay, so it's your full name Jay handle at gmail. 894 01:37:07.830 --> 01:37:13.320 jay handal: ja ja why ha and the al@gmail.com just. 895 01:37:13.320 --> 01:37:15.120 Sima Kostovetsky: Like you attack a test. 896 01:37:16.440 --> 01:37:16.800 james murez: Okay. 897 01:37:21.570 --> 01:37:22.050 jay handal: got it. 898 01:37:28.770 --> 01:37:30.180 Daffodil Tyminski: So you need full name. 899 01:37:31.230 --> 01:37:44.130 jay handal: Any name email address phone number and then at some point you're going to have to sign these documents, if the you know the board, who approves everybody and everything. 900 01:37:44.820 --> 01:37:58.170 jay handal: i'll have to i'll you know i'm in Venice all the time, because I, you know, I have a unit in Venice now yo i'm in the area, so if you're in the area, I can just bring the documents you can sign them, I can send them and. 901 01:37:58.290 --> 01:38:05.190 Daffodil Tyminski: What we what I had done with Andrea I set him up with this and then he and I were using a pretty effectively was docusign. 902 01:38:06.540 --> 01:38:09.570 Daffodil Tyminski: um so you can basically get thrown into clicks. 903 01:38:10.080 --> 01:38:15.210 jay handal: yeah I don't know if the city will accept Doc you sign on the annual signatures. 904 01:38:15.780 --> 01:38:19.380 Daffodil Tyminski: Oh, on the annual signatures, I can see that I just met as a matter of course, on the second. 905 01:38:19.440 --> 01:38:19.770 jay handal: I mean it. 906 01:38:19.980 --> 01:38:32.220 jay handal: doesn't matter of course i'm great with docusign or don't sign or whatever, but I think they want to wet signature in the end, I have to send a packet to them, I have to scan it first so it's legal. 907 01:38:32.400 --> 01:38:33.330 jay handal: and on org. 908 01:38:33.750 --> 01:38:35.610 jay handal: And then I have to send them the actual package. 909 01:38:38.190 --> 01:38:38.610 Daffodil Tyminski: got it. 910 01:38:40.830 --> 01:38:42.060 jay handal: Anything else guys. 911 01:38:42.330 --> 01:38:49.110 james murez: I just want to say it's a pleasure working with somebody that understands and knows this stuff and has done it all before because. 912 01:38:49.890 --> 01:38:59.520 james murez: we're not we're not going down a dark blind blind tunnel anymore it's it's quite a pleasure, thank you for stepping in and wish we could recruit your full time. 913 01:39:00.690 --> 01:39:10.560 jay handal: yeah it's my pleasure it's not that hard frazier is actually not that hard you know it's only made hard when the treasurer can't really run a meeting well. 914 01:39:11.370 --> 01:39:22.410 jay handal: And he lets everyone else hijack the meeting, and then it turns into a brouhaha and I don't I don't allow that that doesn't happen so i've been doing this crap too long, so. 915 01:39:24.780 --> 01:39:27.300 jay handal: Anyway, I do, I have a motion to adjourn. 916 01:39:27.810 --> 01:39:29.010 james murez: i'll make the motion to adjourn. 917 01:39:29.670 --> 01:39:30.300 Second. 918 01:39:31.590 --> 01:39:32.340 Daffodil Tyminski: I will second it. 919 01:39:32.580 --> 01:39:33.900 jay handal: Anybody who objects is. 920 01:39:34.140 --> 01:39:39.990 james murez: There is this excuse me stop for a moment, you had mentioned that you would let Sarah make a comment she just raised her hand. 921 01:39:40.080 --> 01:39:42.750 jay handal: Oh sorry, yes, Sarah you had a question. 922 01:39:43.560 --> 01:39:46.350 james murez: We have to promote her I believe let's see. 923 01:39:46.650 --> 01:39:48.000 jay handal: I promote her to treasure. 924 01:39:50.550 --> 01:39:53.010 james murez: let's allow her to talk there we go go ahead, Sarah. 925 01:39:54.180 --> 01:40:03.030 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I thank you for that Jim I do appreciate it, I waited through the conversation and I thought once I heard you a journey that no no i've got it I need to raise my hand. 926 01:40:03.690 --> 01:40:12.780 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay Thank you so much Jay for all at the beginning of the meeting all of the information with regard to what makes a grant application successful. 927 01:40:14.070 --> 01:40:21.120 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I actually did send in a grant application that was not considered, but I think it just wasn't considered because it was too late. 928 01:40:21.450 --> 01:40:39.000 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: And what i'd like to do, and maybe Jay is the person to answer this question is, I want to apply for funds for the Venice arbor committee but i'd like to do it right away for the next fiscal year are these brands done on a rolling basis and Would I be able to. 929 01:40:40.860 --> 01:40:42.390 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Get grant monies. 930 01:40:43.530 --> 01:40:49.020 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: right away, or at least prior to November, rather than waiting until the end of the fiscal year. 931 01:40:50.160 --> 01:40:54.000 jay handal: So just you know the fiscal year ends June 30. 932 01:40:54.960 --> 01:40:58.560 jay handal: Right Oh, the new budget begins July one to June clerk. 933 01:40:59.100 --> 01:41:14.100 jay handal: Okay, so it's too late to apply for a grant now for this fiscal year you can certainly send in an application to whoever is receiving applications at the Venice neighborhood Council. 934 01:41:14.730 --> 01:41:22.890 jay handal: And I would suggest, and we can have this conversation that you know, maybe you guys set up an email address that's funding at. 935 01:41:23.550 --> 01:41:34.770 jay handal: You know, and everybody can send me a funding request to one place, and that can be distributed to the right people that would probably eliminate some of the last couple of days chasing documents around. 936 01:41:36.360 --> 01:41:56.730 jay handal: But in any case, the thing to remember is if the board packet that is written is approved there's going to be very little money next year for Community projects, and when I say very little money, I mean. 937 01:41:57.090 --> 01:41:58.950 Daffodil Tyminski: we're talking about thousand dollars. 938 01:41:59.040 --> 01:42:01.380 james murez: Yes to 2000 bucks is what you had in there. 939 01:42:01.530 --> 01:42:07.050 jay handal: yeah it's like $2,000 for one category, and I think I don't have it in front of. 940 01:42:07.050 --> 01:42:09.030 james murez: 120 2500 for the other. 941 01:42:09.480 --> 01:42:21.600 jay handal: yeah so between the two there's 40 $500 for the entire year for grant funding for fiscal year 2022 and 2023. 942 01:42:22.290 --> 01:42:23.340 jay handal: So, yes. 943 01:42:23.370 --> 01:42:37.920 jay handal: I would get my application in sooner than later, and how they evaluate whether they're going to do a certain time limit, or just do it and be done with it, I don't know that's a policy issue that the Chair can make with the board. 944 01:42:38.880 --> 01:42:59.400 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay, I mean I did send in my application to the address that was the physical address it's a postal box that was recommended on the application and I sent it on Monday I also emailed it to both Jim and Andrea and I got no response. 945 01:42:59.790 --> 01:43:01.740 Daffodil Tyminski: See review like two months ago. 946 01:43:02.280 --> 01:43:08.670 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: Okay that's fine I get that i'm I didn't know what the, the only reason why I heard about this. 947 01:43:09.390 --> 01:43:19.320 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: was because I heard about it in the last board meeting and then, when they said okay we're going to have another budget meeting in order to consider these applications. 948 01:43:20.220 --> 01:43:38.550 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I thought I will just all love it in there and see what happens I didn't you know, sometimes public bodies will dispense with their deadlines in order to fully fund whatever funds they have in their you know coffers, so I figured that that would be a good. 949 01:43:39.600 --> 01:43:40.200 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: You know. 950 01:43:41.670 --> 01:43:43.980 jay handal: yeah but anyway that's fine. 951 01:43:44.310 --> 01:43:49.920 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: I I get that I will apply as soon as the fiscal I mean i'm going to apply right away. 952 01:43:50.040 --> 01:44:06.630 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: From i'm i'm just i'm going to revise my application, now that i've heard some criticisms that you raise, but one of the questions I do have is our Organization has been planting trees and plants in public. 953 01:44:07.830 --> 01:44:17.550 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: areas at the permission of the city, because the city is encouraging tree planting in their parkways. 954 01:44:19.050 --> 01:44:38.430 sarahrwauters@gmail.com: But we're probably not going to be able to get them to generate a permission letter because the permission is a blanket permission, so I want to know how uh how that's going to be perceived and how to address that in a way that's going to be satisfactory to the Budget Committee. 955 01:44:38.970 --> 01:44:44.070 james murez: So Sarah I can address a little bit of that having planted several thousand trees in Venice in the past. 956 01:44:44.280 --> 01:44:49.470 Daffodil Tyminski: um guys I need to jump off i'm Sarah i'm happy to call you directly, if you want, but. 957 01:44:50.760 --> 01:44:59.040 jay handal: Before you jump off real quick and i'm sorry to interrupt I just got permission to get into your portal. 958 01:45:01.230 --> 01:45:02.040 jay handal: So. 959 01:45:03.390 --> 01:45:24.240 jay handal: There are a couple of issues and i'm going to have to dig into it, you have one overdue credit card receipt upload that's missing, you have to pending credit card transactions requiring receipts, you have one flag credit card transaction, and you have to flagged me ours. 960 01:45:25.920 --> 01:45:39.480 jay handal: So I will dig into them later today i'll go into the computer portal, not on my phone and i'll find out what it is that's missing get it to you guys get it to gym. 961 01:45:41.430 --> 01:45:45.180 jay handal: But they're going to have to be resolved before they're going to release any more money. 962 01:45:46.290 --> 01:45:51.240 jay handal: because now we are in, we went from yellow to red flags. 963 01:45:51.750 --> 01:45:52.170 james murez: yo and. 964 01:45:52.200 --> 01:45:53.400 jay handal: you're on your account. 965 01:45:53.670 --> 01:46:04.050 james murez: And, and let me just mentioned that I believe some of those issues were being cleared up, and I believe that Andrea got some of those into his inbox. 966 01:46:04.830 --> 01:46:18.570 james murez: In the treasures email account so once I clear up the treasures email account that will probably give you access to the invoices that I hope were sent over right Sema to shake your head. 967 01:46:19.770 --> 01:46:24.180 jay handal: So did you guys and for April and mark. 968 01:46:28.950 --> 01:46:35.640 jay handal: You know if board action can't vote counts had been submitted. 969 01:46:37.530 --> 01:46:38.370 jay handal: To the city. 970 01:46:38.820 --> 01:46:52.980 james murez: I don't know I mean we did that the Minutes are all online, whether or not Andrea submitted the vote count on one of those forms or not, you know that was yesterday I believe was the first time I ever saw and understood what those forms were used for. 971 01:46:53.220 --> 01:46:58.350 james murez: Right and and so you know I can certainly go back and fill those out without too much trouble. 972 01:46:58.920 --> 01:47:03.930 Daffodil Tyminski: I will say, since i'm the signer I have never been asked to sign those so I don't think. 973 01:47:04.140 --> 01:47:05.730 james murez: I guess is that was just not. 974 01:47:05.730 --> 01:47:09.120 james murez: happening is one of those things that fell through the cracks. 975 01:47:09.300 --> 01:47:12.630 jay handal: So extra space is that your. 976 01:47:12.840 --> 01:47:14.520 james murez: story where public storage yeah. 977 01:47:14.850 --> 01:47:21.990 jay handal: Okay, so there's currently a credit card receipt missing, for that is a receipt missing for Facebook. 978 01:47:27.360 --> 01:47:31.350 jay handal: So I have a Facebook receipt and as. 979 01:47:31.950 --> 01:47:34.200 james murez: You get that Sema the Facebook receive. 980 01:47:34.500 --> 01:47:39.120 Sima Kostovetsky: I do i'm actually looking through my receipts, is it $42. 981 01:47:39.540 --> 01:47:42.000 jay handal: Is 42 or four right. 982 01:47:42.030 --> 01:47:54.030 Sima Kostovetsky: They sent that to me on the 18th so I like that's the other part, that I think would be really helpful, especially for us on budget is the deadline dates. 983 01:47:54.150 --> 01:47:58.200 james murez: Well, you know what, why did, why did they have your email address rather than treasurer. 984 01:47:58.620 --> 01:48:03.090 Sima Kostovetsky: Because I get i'm the one that got vetted for the Facebook account it's. 985 01:48:03.300 --> 01:48:03.840 james murez: I understand. 986 01:48:04.140 --> 01:48:09.600 james murez: But why don't we change the email address on it and and let those receipts come directly to the treasure. 987 01:48:09.810 --> 01:48:19.530 Sima Kostovetsky: Well, because it was better coming to me then to him at that point so that's how it was built to my account because i'm the one that got vetted it's a city account. 988 01:48:19.770 --> 01:48:24.660 Sima Kostovetsky: But whatever reason it gets billed to me person yo J you'll see if. 989 01:48:25.260 --> 01:48:28.680 jay handal: we'll we'll talk about all the bandwidth i'm going to go through. 990 01:48:29.220 --> 01:48:40.320 jay handal: Now that I can get into the portal, you know I will go through everything and see what went to who and where, and you know i'm a firm believer and consolidating. 991 01:48:40.950 --> 01:48:53.730 jay handal: You know all the information so that if you have an email for payments at or receipt at or whatever you know, and they can be distributed to individual emails you know, in a forward. 992 01:48:54.870 --> 01:49:06.030 jay handal: But you should have one email forever that people are sending stuff through so when i'm no longer treasure, you know the next treasure is the one who has that account he can go in and look at everything. 993 01:49:06.570 --> 01:49:07.740 james murez: makes sense. 994 01:49:08.250 --> 01:49:09.360 james murez: So accounts payable. 995 01:49:09.810 --> 01:49:23.370 jay handal: yeah whatever, so I will go through the portal, because it appears that you've got a number of issues that need to be cleaned up pretty quick and if there's me ours that haven't been approved at the board level. 996 01:49:24.780 --> 01:49:28.020 jay handal: Then they should be on this special board meeting as well. 997 01:49:28.410 --> 01:49:36.240 james murez: But I think the meds were actually approved, but I don't know is was there some formal document that has to be sent into the city. 998 01:49:36.540 --> 01:49:40.890 jay handal: On their approval, yes, you have to you have to send in one of these. 999 01:49:41.370 --> 01:49:42.900 james murez: Those board action items okay. 1000 01:49:44.130 --> 01:49:51.750 james murez: And those have to be signed and counter side and the signer would have to be you at this point is treasure and daffodils. 1001 01:49:51.750 --> 01:50:04.740 james murez: Exactly alright so we'll get those filled out i'll send you electronic copies to both you and can they just out of curiosity, can we do this in their shotgun approach we're both you and daffodil each sign one individually, and then we send into. 1002 01:50:05.550 --> 01:50:08.070 jay handal: And I have to send one in with both. 1003 01:50:08.070 --> 01:50:10.020 james murez: Signature Okay, whatever. 1004 01:50:10.710 --> 01:50:14.160 jay handal: So typically what we do in West la. 1005 01:50:15.210 --> 01:50:18.120 jay handal: Is Jamie and I sign a master. 1006 01:50:18.660 --> 01:50:20.130 jay handal: Okay undated. 1007 01:50:20.670 --> 01:50:21.090 james murez: got it. 1008 01:50:21.540 --> 01:50:34.890 jay handal: And then, when something gets passed at the Council, you know I just fill in the tick marks yep and it up at the bottom put the agenda item, the meeting date and I come home when I scan it, you know and i'm done. 1009 01:50:35.370 --> 01:50:35.790 Okay. 1010 01:50:38.970 --> 01:50:42.120 james murez: Very good, well we'll get there we're not there yet
