frank murphy: All right, that's a goal.

188
00:18:01.350 --> 00:18:05.730
frank murphy: chair, so what I wanted to do was comment, we were going to take.

189
00:18:07.530 --> 00:18:14.640
frank murphy: One minute on non agenda items and we were going to place that at the end of the.

190
00:18:17.070 --> 00:18:23.940
frank murphy: At the end of the meeting, and that is when we could also have the public comments on the homeless Roundtable.

191
00:18:25.020 --> 00:18:31.680
frank murphy: So we wanted to take those two items and put them down before the adjournment.

192
00:18:32.940 --> 00:18:33.810
frank murphy: If that's.

193
00:18:36.150 --> 00:18:36.540
frank murphy: That.

194
00:18:38.760 --> 00:18:42.210
frank murphy: So then we'll go down right under the.

195
00:18:43.290 --> 00:18:46.590
frank murphy: comments on not agenda items.

196
00:18:48.030 --> 00:18:49.230
frank murphy: think that number.

197
00:18:50.310 --> 00:18:54.570
frank murphy: You know down there right above the right above number nine.

198
00:18:55.620 --> 00:18:59.130
frank murphy: Okay, so that puts us to the.

199
00:19:01.890 --> 00:19:04.650
frank murphy: committee chair and a comment.

200
00:19:05.730 --> 00:19:08.400
frank murphy: i'm from myself.

201
00:19:10.290 --> 00:19:13.320
frank murphy: And I wanted to make a.

202
00:19:14.940 --> 00:19:18.330
frank murphy: Just sort of a generalized statement here.

203
00:19:19.770 --> 00:19:25.260
frank murphy: Before we get started and, basically, what I want to comment on is.

204
00:19:27.000 --> 00:19:32.850
frank murphy: As a committee, I think what we've come, you know the street and the sidewalks are the most.

205
00:19:35.280 --> 00:19:56.160
frank murphy: Probably the most inhumane approach to housing and giving emergency housing to homeless people and so that's a that's a really big ticket item and we've addressed this at several different iterations over the last couple of years through this committee and.

206
00:19:58.110 --> 00:20:00.660
frank murphy: We have several we had several.

207
00:20:03.750 --> 00:20:29.820
frank murphy: presentations and postings in 621 are 1007 20 220-320-1622 21 all about homeless off street sanctuaries and suitable sites, etc, etc, so this was all been digested and dispersed throughout the Community, but one of the things that I wanted to highlight was.

208
00:20:30.840 --> 00:20:37.050
frank murphy: No matter how contentious and raucous we can be in Venice.

209
00:20:38.760 --> 00:20:52.950
frank murphy: You know, we have accommodated homeless and and those of lesser means quite substantially and reason why I say this is Venice accounts for 5% of the area and 14% of the population.

210
00:20:54.090 --> 00:21:16.440
frank murphy: And 16% of the housing stock of all of CD 11 56% of the homeless population and 40% of the low income and P sh housing of all of ci CD 11 are located in Venice and I just want to kind of get that up in front, so people can see that and.

211
00:21:17.460 --> 00:21:24.570
frank murphy: For what it's worth so having said that i'm Tracy parks has.

212
00:21:25.830 --> 00:21:34.860
frank murphy: been so gracious as to join us in a meeting and and we really want to get a lot of interaction with Tracy.

213
00:21:36.720 --> 00:21:42.990
frank murphy: Especially on the homeless issue so and we exchange has to be focused on the homelessness as it impacts us.

214
00:21:44.460 --> 00:21:49.890
frank murphy: What I want to ask the Committee is, we want to get good Chris questions.

215
00:21:51.600 --> 00:22:01.590
frank murphy: compact Lee stated we're going to give you one minute to post questions and then 30 seconds to do a to do a short.

216
00:22:03.300 --> 00:22:28.020
frank murphy: follow up question in case you feel there's something but, otherwise, we want to let Tracy answer and the time being spent with tracy's answers and comments and etc interspersed in that we're going to have questions that were presented to us previously and vicki will be.

217
00:22:30.510 --> 00:22:36.540
frank murphy: Bringing those up and and I think the questions will be not only.

218
00:22:38.190 --> 00:22:44.730
frank murphy: Questions to Tracy but informative to Tracy as to what the concerns are within the Community.

219
00:22:45.810 --> 00:22:50.790
frank murphy: So, that being the case, Tracy if you want to take a few minutes to sort of.

220
00:22:51.900 --> 00:22:53.880
frank murphy: Introduce yourself and then we'll go.

221
00:22:55.050 --> 00:22:55.560
frank murphy: From there.

222
00:22:55.980 --> 00:23:05.280
Traci Park: Alright, well, thank you, frank and thank you to all of the committee members for having me it's always a pleasure to see you and I welcome our discussion tonight.

223
00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:23.400
Traci Park: For those of you who may be joining as attendees that i've not had the opportunity to meet i'm Tracy park i'm a local here in Venice, and I think you all know that I am headed to a runoff election in November to replace Mike bonnen on the La city council and to represent.

224
00:23:23.760 --> 00:23:25.680
Traci Park: A Council district you love and.

225
00:23:26.700 --> 00:23:35.580
Traci Park: I am by trade and attorney i've been practicing for more than 20 years here in Los Angeles i'm a third generation angeleno.

226
00:23:35.940 --> 00:23:46.560
Traci Park: And in my day job I work every day with city leadership on complex issues I work every day with city managers elected officials.

227
00:23:46.890 --> 00:23:56.640
Traci Park: department heads police and fire and other employee groups on a wide range of issues and, like you, as a resident of Venice.

228
00:23:57.540 --> 00:24:11.280
Traci Park: I have seen what has occurred in our Community over the last several years to and watching this crisis escalate and the effectiveness of our local government.

229
00:24:11.640 --> 00:24:21.540
Traci Park: across various agencies and bureaucracies to respond to the concerns of our Community, its failure to keep certain promises to our Community.

230
00:24:22.020 --> 00:24:34.950
Traci Park: All contributed to my decision to run for Office and to get involved and to work with you as Community members to help create the solutions that it is going to take to address these issues.

231
00:24:35.310 --> 00:24:44.880
Traci Park: I know that you're going to have specific questions for me this evening and I look forward to diving in on all the issues and topics that you may want to talk about.

232
00:24:45.270 --> 00:24:57.210
Traci Park: I do want to frame also our conversation with an acknowledgement that if there are 50,000 people sleeping on the streets of Los Angeles, that is 50,000 too many people.

233
00:24:57.570 --> 00:25:14.640
Traci Park: And it is not lost on me that there is a human story and reason for every single one of those individuals, this is a very complex issue, there is no single solution that is going to address this.

234
00:25:15.000 --> 00:25:24.960
Traci Park: When i'm elected this job is not going to come with a magic wand, but I am confident that working together with communities with.

235
00:25:25.470 --> 00:25:33.930
Traci Park: committees like yours and our neighborhood and Community Councils across the district, we are going to take swift action.

236
00:25:34.230 --> 00:25:42.030
Traci Park: To address the concerns to get people into settings where they can get stabilized and get the help that they need.

237
00:25:42.390 --> 00:25:56.940
Traci Park: And i'm going to need your partnership to get it done so with that I am happy to dive in and we answer questions and talk about the specifics of what we're going to need to do to get this done so thanks again for having me you guys.

238
00:25:59.310 --> 00:26:01.770
frank murphy: Thanks Tracy okay.

239
00:26:03.120 --> 00:26:05.730
frank murphy: let's let's start anybody.

240
00:26:11.190 --> 00:26:13.440
Pat Raphael: Yes, well, I guess.

241
00:26:15.540 --> 00:26:16.560
Pat Raphael: i'd like to have.

242
00:26:17.580 --> 00:26:35.070
Pat Raphael: background information is the plan that you already have in place, since this is one of the major issues of this race i'm sure you already have something in place, can we first have that and then from the plan that you have in place, we can we can.

243
00:26:36.180 --> 00:26:37.440
Pat Raphael: Take the conversation from there.

244
00:26:38.550 --> 00:26:49.380
Traci Park: So, for those of you who haven't had an opportunity, I would recommend going to Tracy park.com my full plan is laid out in detail there.

245
00:26:50.310 --> 00:26:57.960
Traci Park: As I mentioned, Pat, this is a very complex problem with many layers of challenges to it.

246
00:26:58.350 --> 00:27:08.220
Traci Park: keep in mind that when we are thinking and talking about addressing homelessness we are talking about the county of Los Angeles, the city of Los Angeles.

247
00:27:08.460 --> 00:27:18.210
Traci Park: Lhasa, and about 1500 service providers working across the county to address these issues, and it is going to take.

248
00:27:18.600 --> 00:27:27.540
Traci Park: All of those layers of bureaucracy and government organizations and nonprofits and search service providers rowing in the same direction.

249
00:27:28.200 --> 00:27:40.350
Traci Park: To make a meaningful difference in this problem so kicking through some of those communication silos and getting organizations and to share information to collaborate and to work together.

250
00:27:40.680 --> 00:27:52.290
Traci Park: is going to be a big part of that, so let me take this in pieces, first of all, prevention of homelessness is a critical component of how we need to begin to address this.

251
00:27:52.800 --> 00:28:08.160
Traci Park: For individuals that are housing insecure or may face losing their housing because of unexpected financial circumstances, whether that is job loss or unexpected medical bills.

252
00:28:08.430 --> 00:28:15.300
Traci Park: or even the cost of living and we recognize that the affordability component here in Los Angeles, is a serious problem.

253
00:28:15.720 --> 00:28:28.260
Traci Park: We have got to have safety nets in place to help keep people past one of the things that I have proposed is a 24 hour housing hotline.

254
00:28:28.560 --> 00:28:35.040
Traci Park: That is actually managed in real time answered by human beings who are case managers.

255
00:28:35.370 --> 00:28:45.480
Traci Park: Who will do an intake with folks that are having an economic barrier to staying house and get them set up with the right financial assistance to keep them where they are.

256
00:28:45.930 --> 00:28:58.380
Traci Park: Something else that is absolutely essential is that we are not only protecting and preserving the affordable housing that we have on the West side and across the city.

257
00:28:58.650 --> 00:29:13.680
Traci Park: But that we are making investments in expanding affordable and workforce housing, so that we can keep people house and so that it remains economically viable for them to stay in their communities where they are.

258
00:29:14.130 --> 00:29:30.330
Traci Park: So that's a piece of it another piece of it is having accurate real time data that helps us understand who is in the population that we need to serve and what their needs are.

259
00:29:30.810 --> 00:29:42.300
Traci Park: I don't think that relying on numbers from the annual point in time, count give us enough data on an ongoing basis to assess.

260
00:29:42.570 --> 00:29:53.850
Traci Park: Where are the needs in the Community and how do we get those addressed, so I would like to see regular ongoing collection of data that includes needs assessments.

261
00:29:54.150 --> 00:30:02.910
Traci Park: So that we are ensuring that people who are without homes are getting referred into the right types of interventions and programs.

262
00:30:03.390 --> 00:30:18.900
Traci Park: I also think that we need to be much more granular about designing interventions for different demographics of individuals and i've talked a lot about this over the last year, plus that I have been campaigning.

263
00:30:20.490 --> 00:30:35.850
Traci Park: Let me give you a couple of different examples I spend a lot of time out in encampments talking to folks because I think that as a policymaker it's important for me to understand what works and what hasn't worked.

264
00:30:36.330 --> 00:30:45.840
Traci Park: And oftentimes older people that are living on the streets will tell me that they do not want to go into housing with you.

265
00:30:46.470 --> 00:30:58.680
Traci Park: And so my takeaway from those conversations, is that we need to have transitional and permanent housing, that is specific to seniors 55 and up.

266
00:30:59.340 --> 00:31:12.210
Traci Park: We all know that aging out of foster care is one of the biggest feeders into homelessness for youth, I believe that shared housing pod share model type housing is an.

267
00:31:12.990 --> 00:31:22.290
Traci Park: Intervention that is appropriate for that particular demographic that model does not work as well for seniors or for families.

268
00:31:22.860 --> 00:31:34.110
Traci Park: families with children are a different demographic that have different needs, I was honored to be President President at the grand opening of Angeles house.

269
00:31:34.620 --> 00:31:42.690
Traci Park: A few months back that is Union rescue missions new transitional housing for families in South Los Angeles, and that entire facility.

270
00:31:42.990 --> 00:31:54.960
Traci Park: was designed with children in mind, there are playgrounds libraries reading rooms, all of the amenities on site that would be appropriate for families with children.

271
00:31:55.530 --> 00:32:02.670
Traci Park: women who are victims of domestic violence are heavily represented amongst the House population.

272
00:32:03.060 --> 00:32:10.470
Traci Park: and women who are fleeing domestic violence have a different set of needs and interventions that are appropriate for them.

273
00:32:10.800 --> 00:32:20.160
Traci Park: So I think that it is very important that we are looking at those needs and designing interventions that are appropriate to that population.

274
00:32:20.550 --> 00:32:28.260
Traci Park: I also think that we are being remiss in our conversations if we don't acknowledge mental health and addiction issues.

275
00:32:28.650 --> 00:32:37.530
Traci Park: It has always been a head scratcher to me that we do not have on demand walk up residential rehab programs.

276
00:32:37.830 --> 00:32:48.720
Traci Park: For those who are experiencing addiction issues we have got to expand to the resources available to us here in the city of Los Angeles, to address those issues as well.

277
00:32:49.110 --> 00:32:56.460
Traci Park: And pad I know i'm taking a long time to answer your question, but it was really broad So hopefully i'll get some follow ups and we can dive in on some of this.

278
00:32:57.480 --> 00:33:06.300
Traci Park: it's also really important to me as we think about the model maintenance and and how we are managing our nonprofits and service providers.

279
00:33:06.840 --> 00:33:27.960
Traci Park: We currently don't have any standardized set of performance metrics to assess which providers are actually getting us returns on our investment, like many of you, I share serious concerns about the low numbers of success getting people stabilized and into permanent housing.

280
00:33:29.130 --> 00:33:39.750
Traci Park: here on the West side and in other parts of the city, I think it is time for us to stop writing blank checks and hoping for the best.

281
00:33:40.140 --> 00:33:49.500
Traci Park: I am more than willing to double and triple down on programs that are working, that are actually achieving the results that we want to see.

282
00:33:49.770 --> 00:33:56.970
Traci Park: But I have no trouble canceling the contracts of those providers that are not yielding us the results that we'd like to see.

283
00:33:57.690 --> 00:34:07.110
Traci Park: Finally, we're going to have to we're going to have to invest in housing, and that is affordable housing workforce, housing and permanent supportive housing.

284
00:34:07.410 --> 00:34:16.530
Traci Park: But if we are being honest about that we're talking about things that are a decade down the pipeline to bring to scale.

285
00:34:16.950 --> 00:34:25.110
Traci Park: Out of fruition, that is going to get people off the streets fast enough for any of us to see a meaningful impact in the numbers of folks on the streets.

286
00:34:25.350 --> 00:34:33.270
Traci Park: So what that means is that we're going to have to take some less ideal alternatives in the meantime, and that may need to be in Phase one.

287
00:34:33.840 --> 00:34:42.300
Traci Park: Safe camping and sleeping sites and moving into emergency and transitional type shelters.

288
00:34:43.050 --> 00:35:00.690
Traci Park: Neither one of those are ideal, but they are the interim steps that we need to be able to make in the meantime to get people off the streets and into safe settings there is nothing that is humane or compassionate or progressive.

289
00:35:01.050 --> 00:35:14.190
Traci Park: About leaving people sick suffering and dying on the streets, and we are going to have to come together as a community to work together to stop that and make sure that we're getting people to care that they need so.

290
00:35:14.580 --> 00:35:27.690
Traci Park: Hopefully that gave you an overview packs of the plan it's complicated there's a lot of moving parts to it and it's going to take a lot of work to get it done, but we are going to come together and we are going to do this.

291
00:35:29.310 --> 00:35:31.260
frank murphy: Bad you have a follow up on that.

292
00:35:32.790 --> 00:35:34.110
Pat Raphael: Thank you for that I guess.

293
00:35:35.160 --> 00:35:36.900
Pat Raphael: What I think about when I.

294
00:35:38.190 --> 00:35:42.270
Pat Raphael: consider opening new ways to measure success.

295
00:35:44.070 --> 00:35:47.760
Pat Raphael: metrics available to make decisions on is.

296
00:35:48.900 --> 00:35:50.850
Pat Raphael: conceiving of creating another.

297
00:35:53.250 --> 00:35:58.530
Pat Raphael: Market we gather this information from sources, where it's available already.

298
00:36:00.870 --> 00:36:01.980
Pat Raphael: So what is the plan again.

299
00:36:14.460 --> 00:36:19.530
Traci Park: Thank you for that follow up half that's a good question, so I, as a matter of contracting.

300
00:36:19.890 --> 00:36:27.930
Traci Park: When we are engaging a nonprofit or a service provider, we need to sit down in the drafting phase.

301
00:36:28.260 --> 00:36:37.020
Traci Park: and assess what is your capacity per year how, what are your goals in terms of the number of individuals, you will be servicing that are coming.

302
00:36:37.230 --> 00:36:46.650
Traci Park: Out of homelessness and into your program and what are the realistic outcomes that we're shooting for right i'm not going to dictate to the service providers, what we think is realistic.

303
00:36:47.100 --> 00:36:58.830
Traci Park: We are going to need to collaborate with them, but those need to be spelled out in the contracts and the funding for these programs needs to be tied to achieving those outcomes.

304
00:36:59.160 --> 00:37:15.900
Traci Park: I can think of no other aspect of public contracting I can think of no business arrangement, where you are writing blank checks and hoping for the best, and that is unfortunately what we have seen all too often.

305
00:37:16.350 --> 00:37:28.410
Traci Park: And, sadly, at the end of the day, while we are throwing billions of dollars at this problem, we are not seeing the results that we would expect to see in our communities, and in part that's because of the.

306
00:37:28.590 --> 00:37:38.340
Traci Park: inflow into homelessness being potentially greater than the capacity that we have to serve, but I do believe in accountability and.

307
00:37:38.700 --> 00:37:48.660
Traci Park: We have to recognize that there is a limitation on the resources and we have got to invest those dollars in what's working and.

308
00:37:49.560 --> 00:37:59.460
Traci Park: Stop with the ones that aren't and so that is something that I would like to see quarterly reporting on and we will be doing those performance check ins on a regular basis.

309
00:37:59.700 --> 00:38:05.940
Traci Park: and assessing those contracts as we go forward now something else, as a matter of contracting that has been concerning to me.

310
00:38:06.150 --> 00:38:11.700
Traci Park: Is the number of no big contracts that have been written out over the last number of years.

311
00:38:11.970 --> 00:38:22.290
Traci Park: I want to go out for rfp and I want to hire the best providers to get the work done and that is something that I will be very transparent about.

312
00:38:22.500 --> 00:38:32.370
Traci Park: All of this information will be available, I will be in your committees, we will talk about that and we can talk about who we think the best folks are to tackle some of the issues that we need to tackle.

313
00:38:35.100 --> 00:38:37.560
frank murphy: God, I think you, you were.

314
00:38:40.440 --> 00:38:41.610
frank murphy: At some question there.

315
00:38:43.260 --> 00:38:44.190
Traci Park: Then you're muted.

316
00:38:44.250 --> 00:38:45.630
frank murphy: You gotta unmute Tony.

317
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:00.870
frank murphy: Can you.

318
00:39:02.790 --> 00:39:03.030
Jody Mortimer: got it.

319
00:39:03.240 --> 00:39:03.630
frank murphy: I got it.

320
00:39:04.080 --> 00:39:04.950
frank murphy: Thank you, thank you.

321
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:07.200
Jody Mortimer: Thank you vicki.

322
00:39:08.250 --> 00:39:12.780
Jody Mortimer: i'm sorry Tracy for coming to our committee meeting um.

323
00:39:13.830 --> 00:39:16.020
Jody Mortimer: First, I want to say that it sounds like you're.

324
00:39:17.310 --> 00:39:23.640
Jody Mortimer: you're very strong and I think you said about a 10 year plan with benchmarks correct.

325
00:39:24.660 --> 00:39:40.260
Traci Park: yeah well, I think the 10 years is what i'm talking about the building of new permanent supportive housing and affordable housing units just realistically we're a decade out from having enough units online and available to even begin to address the problem, yes.

326
00:39:40.830 --> 00:39:41.040
So.

327
00:39:43.650 --> 00:39:45.600
Traci Park: temporary solutions, yes.

328
00:39:47.280 --> 00:39:49.620
Jody Mortimer: So so temporary solutions or something like.

329
00:39:51.270 --> 00:40:03.330
Jody Mortimer: that or the other day about porn seven tiny homes, they just had their open up at the city of torrance is that possible to do anything like that you're within on the West side, yes.

330
00:40:03.390 --> 00:40:09.180
Traci Park: Yes, so tiny homes modular structures Carver that shelters adaptive reuse.

331
00:40:09.390 --> 00:40:10.350
Traci Park: All of the above.

332
00:40:12.030 --> 00:40:13.380
Jody Mortimer: Okay, thanks.

333
00:40:13.500 --> 00:40:16.020
Jody Mortimer: Oh, what do you know about California care courts.

334
00:40:16.500 --> 00:40:31.500
Traci Park: Yes, good question so you know this is for those of you who don't know is something that was proposed by governor newsome in recent months, and that is a system where individuals.

335
00:40:31.980 --> 00:40:42.450
Traci Park: couldn't potentially who are not well could potentially be conserved by the state for longer periods, then currently allowed under California law.

336
00:40:42.810 --> 00:40:44.160
Traci Park: The purpose behind that.

337
00:40:44.190 --> 00:41:01.620
Traci Park: Of course, is to give people the time that's necessary to get stabilized and to bring back some ability to get people into programming that addresses things like mental health and addiction issues I do support the care courts.

338
00:41:01.620 --> 00:41:07.440
Traci Park: I am encouraged that that legislation has now moved into the appropriate appropriations committee.

339
00:41:07.680 --> 00:41:15.270
Traci Park: In sacramento and I am hopeful that it will pass again, though, I just want to caution you that even.

340
00:41:15.750 --> 00:41:28.200
Traci Park: When that is passed, it is going to take some time to get those court systems set up to bring that programming those diversion plans online.

341
00:41:28.500 --> 00:41:36.030
Traci Park: And we will continue to wrangle with the question of where to house individuals who need to go.

342
00:41:36.510 --> 00:41:44.340
Traci Park: You probably know this, but here in Los Angeles county we only have about 2000 acute care beds.

343
00:41:44.610 --> 00:41:51.270
Traci Park: Which isn't enough to serve the population of severe mentally ill individuals who need the help.

344
00:41:51.510 --> 00:42:15.780
Traci Park: And even if you can get them in on a 72 hour hold and get that extended up to 14 days and then up to 30 days by way of court order, what we are some sorely lacking are the step down facilities that are necessary, as we closed our state mental health hospitals over the last several decades.

345
00:42:16.980 --> 00:42:21.630
Traci Park: It was intended that those be replaced with Community based.

346
00:42:21.690 --> 00:42:27.900
Traci Park: Living facilities those never came online at the scale that was necessary.

347
00:42:28.260 --> 00:42:36.600
Traci Park: And unfortunately for our board and care facilities that we do have we're losing them at an alarming rate, in large part.

348
00:42:36.810 --> 00:42:48.060
Traci Park: Because the medicare reimbursement rate is only $35 per day when the actual cost of paying your staff caring for patients running your facility is much higher than that.

349
00:42:48.270 --> 00:43:03.630
Traci Park: So one of the things that could be done to help not only keep the facilities that we have been incentivized building a new ones is creating a fund that would supplement the difference between actual costs and medicare reinforcement.

350
00:43:04.020 --> 00:43:08.340
Traci Park: But we've got also lobby our members of Congress to get that federal rate adjusted.

351
00:43:08.730 --> 00:43:12.000
Jody Mortimer: And we need those hospitals reopened out East again that we close to.

352
00:43:12.810 --> 00:43:17.370
frank murphy: God gotta wrap up on that do you have a question.

353
00:43:18.360 --> 00:43:19.680
Jody Mortimer: No i'm good i'm.

354
00:43:20.070 --> 00:43:21.420
Jody Mortimer: Okay, thank you Tracy.

355
00:43:21.840 --> 00:43:22.530
Traci Park: you're welcome.

356
00:43:26.910 --> 00:43:28.500
frank murphy: anybody else on the.

357
00:43:29.910 --> 00:43:30.990
frank murphy: Committee needs to.

358
00:43:32.040 --> 00:43:32.970
frank murphy: put up a question.

359
00:43:33.870 --> 00:43:34.350
Brian.

360
00:43:37.950 --> 00:43:39.240
Brian U: happy to hi Tracy.

361
00:43:40.530 --> 00:43:47.310
Brian U: And vicki thanks for putting this together it's great to have Tracy here is, as it will be next month with Eric.

362
00:43:48.750 --> 00:43:56.730
Brian U: Tracy there's there's big things happening in Venice with homeless, as you always know and one of the big things that's right up in front of everybody right now is.

363
00:43:57.090 --> 00:44:14.490
Brian U: Is is our Community and the city going to come to an agreement that allows the city to re up and extend the existing lease on bridge housing, on top of that they're asking to reopen and redo a contract and extend with path to be the provider there.

364
00:44:15.660 --> 00:44:21.330
Brian U: are a couple things the city feels betrayed or at least that the neighborhoods within the.

365
00:44:21.330 --> 00:44:31.140
Brian U: engagement and the proximity to the bridge housing feel that you know they they they've been promised something and they and they and they and they didn't get what they thought that get.

366
00:44:31.470 --> 00:44:41.310
Brian U: Not to mention the people that were housed in that probably didn't get what we wanted them to get either based on what the original menu of services and things that were called for.

367
00:44:42.510 --> 00:44:42.810
frank murphy: Right.

368
00:44:44.760 --> 00:44:45.480
frank murphy: keep it short.

369
00:44:45.510 --> 00:44:46.710
We got one minute.

370
00:44:48.060 --> 00:44:49.590
Brian U: Go ahead sorry sorry frank.

371
00:44:49.950 --> 00:44:54.360
Brian U: yeah anything else i'm okay thanks right.

372
00:44:54.540 --> 00:44:56.670
frank murphy: No, I want you to close that question.

373
00:44:56.850 --> 00:44:57.390
Brian U: yeah.

374
00:44:57.450 --> 00:44:58.710
Brian U: i'm trying to we under the time.

375
00:45:00.060 --> 00:45:01.110
frank murphy: yeah we're on a timer.

376
00:45:02.520 --> 00:45:03.180
Brian U: Tracy.

377
00:45:04.290 --> 00:45:15.900
Brian U: This community wants to consider having the city sign a Community benefits agreement that's an enforceable contract between the neighborhood and and and the city number one, would you be.

378
00:45:18.420 --> 00:45:24.360
Brian U: Part of that number two the path contract the accountability.

379
00:45:25.410 --> 00:45:39.540
Brian U: I heard you talk about that earlier, the transparency, the cleanup zones, the SEC Z, how is that going to work so there's there's a couple questions in that same thing, but data transparency clean up nadh.

380
00:45:39.750 --> 00:45:41.010
frank murphy: yeah Okay, thank you.

381
00:45:41.580 --> 00:45:56.490
Traci Park: Brian, thank you for the question you know I have spoken with so many people who live in around the bridge home as well as business owners and I am as well aware, as anyone.

382
00:45:57.780 --> 00:46:06.630
Traci Park: how difficult that location has been, and we were lied to by the city, you know, I was there.

383
00:46:07.080 --> 00:46:16.620
Traci Park: at Westminster elementary the night that my phone in and Mayor of our city came out and promised our community that that would be a special enforcement zone.

384
00:46:17.010 --> 00:46:20.310
Traci Park: And that the neighborhood would be taken care of.

385
00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:32.310
Traci Park: That did not happen, and I have repeatedly said, and I will say it again right now Mike bonnen did a terrible disservice, not only to our Community and in Venice.

386
00:46:32.580 --> 00:46:42.600
Traci Park: But he has done a terrible disservice to his successor, whether that is me or somebody else because he breached his promises to our Community.

387
00:46:42.840 --> 00:46:57.210
Traci Park: And he turned that facility into the bright shining example of why nobody trusts, the city to manage this problem and, frankly, it has created a set of circumstances where it is going to be more difficult for me.

388
00:46:57.720 --> 00:47:07.440
Traci Park: To go and get the buy in and the communities that I need to bring other types of interventions to scale, so one of the things that I will do when i'm elected if this.

389
00:47:07.830 --> 00:47:16.890
Traci Park: extension on the bridge home goes through is i'm going to keep the promises that Mike bond and broke to our Community, I will enforce this special.

390
00:47:17.400 --> 00:47:24.960
Traci Park: Enforcement zone and ask your question about the Community benefit agreement, I am a huge proponent of those.

391
00:47:25.410 --> 00:47:34.920
Traci Park: You may recall that I came to the dnc and requested support of the Community benefits agreement related to the ramada.

392
00:47:35.280 --> 00:47:49.110
Traci Park: and part of the reason I did, that is because the best Community around the bridge home currently has no way of enforcing the broken promises and I don't think that that is right.

393
00:47:49.410 --> 00:48:04.680
Traci Park: I would like to see an enforceable Community benefits agreement associated with every single one of these kinds of interventions and the way that I had proposed it in mind and i'm open to other ideas on this is that if the circumstances.

394
00:48:05.100 --> 00:48:11.580
Traci Park: become a public nuisance as that term is defined under the city's municipal code.

395
00:48:12.390 --> 00:48:21.840
Traci Park: Community Members would have the right to enter into a voluntary abatement process by giving notice in the city, an opportunity to correct the issue.

396
00:48:22.170 --> 00:48:31.080
Traci Park: And if that effort is unsuccessful to submit the matter to a hearing and actually have a decision that would require the city.

397
00:48:31.530 --> 00:48:36.390
Traci Park: To address the problem if the Community concerns are validated in the hearing process.

398
00:48:36.630 --> 00:48:46.650
Traci Park: I think that that is essential and it's something that you are going to continue hearing me promote as I move forward in my campaign and it's something that you are going to see me push for when i'm elected.

399
00:48:47.250 --> 00:49:04.380
Traci Park: As to path you know I think many of us have questions about how that facility has been run the lack of transparency and the lack of successful outcomes, I would like to see that addressed in any further contract and keep path as the primary provider there.

400
00:49:06.840 --> 00:49:07.980
frank murphy: hey Brian.

401
00:49:08.040 --> 00:49:13.380
Brian U: yeah quick follow up on the westminister senior Center it's currently the roll call room for the circle team.

402
00:49:15.120 --> 00:49:32.340
Brian U: It was such a valuable asset to us when we had the Venice of recovery Center in there, that was providing a meetings and other self help support group meetings for hundreds and hundreds of people on a daily basis 10 or 15 meetings with 100 people.

403
00:49:33.390 --> 00:49:38.760
Brian U: Can we get the circle team to go rent office space somewhere else and and.

404
00:49:38.820 --> 00:49:39.090
and

405
00:49:40.770 --> 00:49:49.050
Brian U: And and get the recovery Center back in to what it was supposed to or facility, where we can do detox because there are a detox services for.

406
00:49:49.650 --> 00:49:57.840
Traci Park: Brian Thank you, yes, I would like to see that Center restored to a Community purpose, I do not like that signing for the circle team at that location.

407
00:49:59.580 --> 00:50:03.930
Traci Park: yeah those meetings, by the way, we're in an important Community benefit.

408
00:50:03.930 --> 00:50:13.080
Traci Park: Those we're actually helping people, and so a combination of that are restoring it's used as a senior Center are really important, and I will push for that.

409
00:50:16.410 --> 00:50:18.390
frank murphy: Elizabeth you've had your hand up.

410
00:50:20.640 --> 00:50:21.660
frank murphy: If you like to go.

411
00:50:23.700 --> 00:50:24.810
frank murphy: You need to unmute.

412
00:50:26.490 --> 00:50:26.850
Elizabeth Wright: Yes.

413
00:50:27.870 --> 00:50:37.800
Elizabeth Wright: Every everything that has been mentioned cost money and obviously the city is looking at ways to raise money and the automated.

414
00:50:38.880 --> 00:50:41.820
Elizabeth Wright: billboards surrounding the bus housing.

415
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:49.200
Elizabeth Wright: as good as popular thing, on the other hand, if it raises learning, maybe it's necessary.

416
00:50:52.470 --> 00:50:53.820
Elizabeth Wright: If they do go in.

417
00:50:55.020 --> 00:51:02.130
Elizabeth Wright: With negotiate please that a portion of that be available a portion of that space to be available for.

418
00:51:03.270 --> 00:51:04.980
Elizabeth Wright: Community will work.

419
00:51:07.530 --> 00:51:16.050
Traci Park: Sure So yes, and I don't love the billboards either, but you know, continuing to find the funding sources.

420
00:51:16.650 --> 00:51:35.040
Traci Park: is really important, but I, you know, I think that there are other ways at getting up the funding to we have dedicated a billion dollars of the city's budget this in this budget cycle to addressing these issues those dollars, need to be spent wisely and stretched as.

421
00:51:35.040 --> 00:51:39.960
Traci Park: far as we can, which is part of the reason that I am so adamant about these performance.

422
00:51:40.050 --> 00:51:53.010
Traci Park: metrics and measuring outcomes keep in mind also that there is a massive surplus at the State level, as well as federal funding that continue to be freed up for.

423
00:51:53.220 --> 00:52:08.250
Traci Park: Addressing homelessness in these issues, so I think that there are some ways to get at this event, you know, are already in place that we can use as well, but but but yes Elizabeth, thank you for that question.

424
00:52:09.930 --> 00:52:10.350
frank murphy: Okay.

425
00:52:15.630 --> 00:52:16.050
frank murphy: there's.

426
00:52:19.020 --> 00:52:20.220
frank murphy: No okay.

427
00:52:21.870 --> 00:52:22.740
frank murphy: Stan what.

428
00:52:25.740 --> 00:52:26.370
frank murphy: question.

429
00:52:27.690 --> 00:52:28.920
Traci Park: you're muted Stan.

430
00:52:29.280 --> 00:52:33.960
Ansar Muhammad: Thank you Tracy for joining us this evening it's very refreshing to hear.

431
00:52:35.550 --> 00:52:41.820
Ansar Muhammad: Your point of views as it relates to how you represent CD 11 i'm looking forward to seeing you at office.

432
00:52:43.680 --> 00:52:46.920
Ansar Muhammad: I know you're dealing with homeless issues but there's a plethora of rubbish.

433
00:52:48.360 --> 00:52:56.910
Ansar Muhammad: In particular, is what I do every day, which is the game reduction youth development approach in Venice we've been waiting for the past two years.

434
00:52:57.510 --> 00:53:13.290
Ansar Muhammad: To get the beer Davis Center open back up, which is our home and my question is how soon once you've been in the office can really put a spotlight on getting that Center back open, so we won't be homeless, because there's 2000 homeless.

435
00:53:16.350 --> 00:53:17.970
Ansar Muhammad: You get the own place to get.

436
00:53:18.510 --> 00:53:29.520
Ansar Muhammad: Resources coming out the back side, but here we are 25 years, and again in this to administer we're home how soon can we get the beer data Center opened up.

437
00:53:30.150 --> 00:53:32.130
Ansar Muhammad: Yes, you ride to city oh.

438
00:53:32.640 --> 00:53:41.730
Traci Park: That is prioritize getting that done for you ASAP and I also want to thank and acknowledge you for the incredible work that you do.

439
00:53:41.970 --> 00:53:48.510
Traci Park: With the Youth in our Community, and I am really excited at the opportunity to work with you.

440
00:53:48.720 --> 00:54:04.230
Traci Park: and to ensure that we are finding opportunities for the young people that you work with in employment and the other things that they need to carry on the great work that you've done with them as as youth so yeah we're going to get that done for you right away down.

441
00:54:05.130 --> 00:54:07.320
Ansar Muhammad: I don't know if you guys need an endless loop so.

442
00:54:09.600 --> 00:54:11.370
frank murphy: follow up on that Stan.

443
00:54:12.810 --> 00:54:13.290
Ansar Muhammad: just wanted to.

444
00:54:14.580 --> 00:54:15.240
Ansar Muhammad: Thank you chase.

445
00:54:16.170 --> 00:54:16.680
vicki.

446
00:54:18.900 --> 00:54:26.400
frank murphy: We don't have any hands up right now, even though I think some of the questions that you might have pulled up will raise some issues in which.

447
00:54:26.400 --> 00:54:27.600
frank murphy: case we can address them.

448
00:54:28.200 --> 00:54:29.220
frank murphy: If you would go ahead.

449
00:54:29.670 --> 00:54:36.060
Vicki Halliday: there's some interesting ones here um one brother specific um.

450
00:54:37.980 --> 00:54:48.060
Vicki Halliday: percentage of the homeless or transients with past criminal records um isn't this information, vital to offering real time solutions.

451
00:54:49.740 --> 00:55:02.790
Traci Park: So that's a really good question and I don't know that I have a data point on exactly how many of them have passed criminal records I just don't have a number.

452
00:55:03.390 --> 00:55:12.210
Traci Park: i'm willing to say that it is likely, a substantial number and, in part, that is because of some.

453
00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:26.460
Traci Park: pieces of legislation over the last decade ab 109 and prop 57 both were legislative efforts addressed at reducing prison overcrowding.

454
00:55:26.940 --> 00:55:37.800
Traci Park: And that was an important thing it needed to be done, so what we saw was a reduction of certain they considered non violent felonies.

455
00:55:38.550 --> 00:55:47.490
Traci Park: To you know misdemeanors or non violent status and so folks 10s of thousands were moved out of state prisons and into county jails.

456
00:55:47.790 --> 00:56:04.710
Traci Park: which led to historic overpopulation county jails and then early release for a lot of offenders, now there is no question, and there is no debate that no one should be serving needlessly long jail or prison time for truly Nonviolent offenses.

457
00:56:05.130 --> 00:56:07.350
Traci Park: The problem that we have seen.

458
00:56:07.380 --> 00:56:18.750
Traci Park: Is that these folks were released without a transition plan without a place to live without a place to work without a way to support themselves.

459
00:56:19.050 --> 00:56:30.750
Traci Park: And there is a lot of empirical data that shows when someone is being released from jail or prison if they don't have a family member to meet them at the door and take them home.

460
00:56:31.020 --> 00:56:39.570
Traci Park: They are going to end up right back on the streets were so many folks came from, and so we have had 10s upon 10s of thousands of these releases.

461
00:56:40.170 --> 00:56:47.370
Traci Park: end up back on the streets in recent years, so I suspect, even though I don't have a specific data point on what the percentage is.

462
00:56:47.730 --> 00:57:01.710
Traci Park: That that number is significantly high So what do we need to do about that right having criminal convictions in your history can be a barrier to housing, they can be a barrier to employment and we need to.

463
00:57:02.190 --> 00:57:15.300
Traci Park: amplify the work of organizations that are willing to hire people with criminal convictions in their backgrounds and I will say you know a lot of the building and trades have tremendous apprentice programs.

464
00:57:15.900 --> 00:57:21.360
Traci Park: You know organization Stan I know that you really focus on that those employment opportunities, as well.

465
00:57:21.630 --> 00:57:36.270
Traci Park: And I think that those are pieces of the puzzle that we are going to have to include are the education and employment services to get those folks the opportunities that they need in order to stabilize and reintegrate back into our communities.

466
00:57:38.460 --> 00:57:46.830
Vicki Halliday: Thank you um another one it's sort of a two fold question um, what do you think about housing first.

467
00:57:47.910 --> 00:57:59.460
Vicki Halliday: And, did you know that your opponent say that you will build many P sh developments in Venice far more than your opponent, including the median.

468
00:58:00.300 --> 00:58:15.690
Vicki Halliday: And the lot of times on a place um this is this is from one of the stakeholders um and you know we get to you know argue for or against the monster in the media is it's none.

469
00:58:16.020 --> 00:58:24.930
Traci Park: Okay, so let me, let me tackle all of the pieces, let me start with the monster on the median I have been very vocal and my opposition to that project.

470
00:58:25.260 --> 00:58:37.170
Traci Park: There are numerous reasons why I am against it size scale lack of oversight cost location impact on Community all of that.

471
00:58:37.920 --> 00:58:51.510
Traci Park: The cost alone to me, is one of the most egregious examples of government waste, we cannot build at $1.2 million per door and expect that we are going to solve homelessness with.

472
00:58:51.570 --> 00:58:58.560
Traci Park: New developed at that rate of spending, we would need somewhere between 25 and $50 billion.

473
00:58:58.860 --> 00:59:08.550
Traci Park: To get out of this and we don't have that if we just we are resources are far more limited, so I am against the median project, and I have been very outspoken.

474
00:59:09.150 --> 00:59:28.740
Traci Park: In my position on that when it comes to housing, first, I think that it is one model, it is one approach, I do not think it is the only approach that should be on the table, and unfortunately.

475
00:59:29.190 --> 00:59:41.760
Traci Park: number of years back, following suit from the Federal Government California also passed a law that tethered state dollars for homeless housing to the housing first model.

476
00:59:42.120 --> 00:59:50.700
Traci Park: Many cities large cities, especially, including Los Angeles around the state followed suit and that is something that I disagree with.

477
00:59:51.030 --> 01:00:10.200
Traci Park: I think we got to be able to add some other types of models to the menu recovery housing I don't think that allowing continued use of drugs and alcohol and settings where children are present is appropriate, we have all seen.

478
01:00:10.740 --> 01:00:25.050
Traci Park: What has happened around the Venice bridge home the ramada across the street for me another housing first model we have had repeated overdoses and deaths There we have got to take a much.

479
01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:34.230
Traci Park: stricter approach on some of these settings I would not put another housing first model that is poorly managed the way the bridge home is.

480
01:00:34.410 --> 01:00:43.440
Traci Park: That has had the spillover effects like that has in our Community and another residential neighborhood and not next to a school, not in a park.

481
01:00:43.950 --> 01:00:49.380
Traci Park: Certainly we're not going to be using our beaches and our parks for this kind of development and programming.

482
01:00:49.590 --> 01:00:58.140
Traci Park: So there may be locations where it is suitable where the impact on an existing Community actually could be mitigated.

483
01:00:58.410 --> 01:01:06.810
Traci Park: I do not have the same kind of heartburn about putting housing for families with children into the fabric of an existing neighborhood.

484
01:01:07.200 --> 01:01:13.140
Traci Park: And so it's something that I would like to see as we get more granular.

485
01:01:13.920 --> 01:01:21.390
Traci Park: You know we've got to have recovery housing, you know we've got to be able to have places where sobriety and recovery are being centered.

486
01:01:21.600 --> 01:01:38.490
Traci Park: People who are on the streets, who do not use drugs and alcohol tell me, often, they do not want to go into housing, with people who are we've got to make options available for them to so housing first cannot be the only thing on the model.

487
01:01:39.180 --> 01:01:46.470
Traci Park: You mentioned that I someone had asked was am I going to put more permanent supportive housing in Venice and am I going to use pisani place.

488
01:01:46.680 --> 01:01:53.190
Traci Park: You know, we are going to come together as a community and decide for ourselves, through a collaborative process.

489
01:01:53.610 --> 01:02:02.910
Traci Park: What makes sense and where we're going to put things, what I am not going to do as a Council member is what Mike bodden has done to our Community.

490
01:02:03.210 --> 01:02:08.340
Traci Park: Which is saying this is what it's going to be and where it's going to go and public input be damned.

491
01:02:08.940 --> 01:02:24.690
Traci Park: that's not how we're going to address this, I believe that communities ought to have a say in designing for themselves what's appropriate and we will collaborate and decide what kinds of interventions out what skill and what locations makes sense and that's how we're going to do this.

492
01:02:25.740 --> 01:02:26.520
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Tracy.

493
01:02:26.730 --> 01:02:27.480
Traci Park: Walker vicki.

494
01:02:28.710 --> 01:02:39.960
Vicki Halliday: um there were numerous other questions that were more on an emotional level, an anger level of what the streets your life now.

495
01:02:40.830 --> 01:02:52.050
Vicki Halliday: and one that that really hit me and reading through all of these um said government creates countless rules that all members of society must abide by.

496
01:02:52.530 --> 01:03:08.370
Vicki Halliday: These are norms that stipulate how people must behave in society or failing to meet those norms, they are removed from the environment, why does that not apply to the homeless and business shouldn't they be required to abide by the same norms and rules.

497
01:03:09.420 --> 01:03:16.740
Vicki Halliday: That we are and and I realized that there are a lot of emotional questions like that that people had thought about.

498
01:03:18.000 --> 01:03:33.090
Traci Park: yeah what what i'm hearing in that question is a frustration with the ever increasing amount of crime and violence and I hear it in every meeting that I do in every town hall that I host.

499
01:03:33.510 --> 01:03:43.650
Traci Park: And I understand it, I feel it too, and I think that we are all tired of the lawlessness of the chaos.

500
01:03:44.070 --> 01:03:52.230
Traci Park: Of the disparate treatment that some folks get and the fact that we're not all being held accountable to the same set of standards.

501
01:03:52.920 --> 01:04:02.460
Traci Park: But law should be applied equally to everyone folks shouldn't be getting a pass for committing crimes, based on housing status.

502
01:04:02.820 --> 01:04:17.160
Traci Park: And unfortunately, you know here in CD 11 we have had a Council member that has had a very contentious relationship with law enforcement and that has impacted their ability we've also had.

503
01:04:17.700 --> 01:04:24.990
Traci Park: them, I see the tide turning on this Council as a whole that hasn't been supportive of law enforcement and, in part, you know.

504
01:04:25.890 --> 01:04:43.650
Traci Park: Voters contributed to this as well right we pass prop 47 which you know another piece of legislation that likely was well intended has led to a significant amount of increased crime across our communities, we have seen this year and.

505
01:04:45.720 --> 01:04:53.370
Traci Park: The highest murder rates in the last 15 years and we have seen violent crime increase year after year, for the last three.

506
01:04:53.730 --> 01:05:08.310
Traci Park: And so that public safety component of this is very real and when I am elected I am going to empower our law enforcement and public safety partners to do their job.

507
01:05:08.670 --> 01:05:18.930
Traci Park: They do not have to call me first for permission my expectation is that they are enforcing all of our laws consistently across the board.

508
01:05:20.370 --> 01:05:31.290
Vicki Halliday: Thank you, that that leads and partially answers the last question that I have from a stakeholder what should be the lapd role in this crisis.

509
01:05:31.650 --> 01:05:33.390
Vicki Halliday: and deeply they have a role.

510
01:05:33.930 --> 01:05:35.340
Vicki Halliday: And what should that role be.

511
01:05:35.490 --> 01:05:45.060
Traci Park: And so, their role is to enforce criminal laws, I do not believe that they should necessarily be tasked with responding.

512
01:05:45.300 --> 01:05:52.680
Traci Park: To mental health calls and that sort of thing we are going to have to get more creative in how we are augmenting.

513
01:05:52.890 --> 01:06:03.030
Traci Park: The services that they are providing whether that's social workers or mental health counselors that are rolling out in real time we have been talking about this for several years now.

514
01:06:03.600 --> 01:06:14.250
Traci Park: If I have someone, and I do outside my home, who is clearly in emotional distress having a mental health crisis, there is no one to call.

515
01:06:14.610 --> 01:06:23.340
Traci Park: You can go to the county department of mental health website and fish around you might find a link that will you could click on it it'll take you to a brochure I don't want a brochure.

516
01:06:23.880 --> 01:06:31.170
Traci Park: I want a real time response from someone that is going to help solve the problem and get the person in distress, the help they need.

517
01:06:31.530 --> 01:06:38.400
Traci Park: That is not necessarily the job of law enforcement and I am certainly open to the concept of supplementing.

518
01:06:38.730 --> 01:06:51.900
Traci Park: Our resources so that police do not have to continue to be overburdened but police are there to enforce our criminal laws and my expectation is that they will continue to do so when I am elected.

519
01:06:52.740 --> 01:06:55.710
Vicki Halliday: Thank you, and then my personal question would be.

520
01:06:57.090 --> 01:07:01.500
Vicki Halliday: If we are going to have these agencies like urban alchemy, and the.

521
01:07:01.500 --> 01:07:02.130
Traci Park: circle T.

522
01:07:03.120 --> 01:07:03.840
um.

523
01:07:05.100 --> 01:07:11.730
Vicki Halliday: Why is it that they the whole idea of it and the organizational structure of it doesn't seem better vetted.

524
01:07:12.420 --> 01:07:21.780
Vicki Halliday: I mean I watched them every day on the boardwalk and at Westminster and there seems to be no rhyme or reason about who they talked to.

525
01:07:22.110 --> 01:07:34.830
Vicki Halliday: I did ask them recently one morning on the boardwalk when they bypass two people who are clearly in mental distress and I said, are you going to talk to them Oh, we talked to them last week.

526
01:07:36.120 --> 01:07:36.360
It.

527
01:07:38.010 --> 01:07:45.420
Vicki Halliday: But it's the here and now, and they're there with no one else to deal with, so why just bypass yeah.

528
01:07:45.690 --> 01:07:58.080
Traci Park: yeah well that's it's a good question becky and I share a lot of the frustrations, I see what you see and that's just one example of it my frustration level with.

529
01:07:59.370 --> 01:08:04.410
Traci Park: The silo wing of our service providers that are nonprofits it's just through the roof.

530
01:08:04.740 --> 01:08:10.770
Traci Park: Right, I am so tired of talking to one organization and saying that's not our job that's not our territory.

531
01:08:11.070 --> 01:08:19.530
Traci Park: or someone else saying you know this isn't the level of service that I perform we have got to get people cross collaborating.

532
01:08:19.830 --> 01:08:25.740
Traci Park: And that what you're describing vicki is the exact kind of thing when I am talking about performance metrics.

533
01:08:26.010 --> 01:08:41.310
Traci Park: I want to have it clearly spelled out what our expectations for engagement are, and I want the service providers doing what we're paying them to do and we're going to get at that, through the contracting and tying the compensation to it.

534
01:08:42.240 --> 01:08:45.540
Vicki Halliday: Great Thank you frank back to you you've not asked a question.

535
01:08:46.590 --> 01:08:49.290
frank murphy: Okay, well, I have one last.

536
01:08:51.000 --> 01:08:51.750
frank murphy: bit here.

537
01:08:53.460 --> 01:08:56.220
frank murphy: But the clock on myself and.

538
01:08:58.380 --> 01:08:59.100
frank murphy: Tracy.

539
01:08:59.280 --> 01:09:20.430
frank murphy: From all of the questions that you've gotten from everybody this evening and we're going to wrap up the questioning i'm sorry pat we're not going to do another round um but from all of these questions, what is your takeaway from this meeting, and how would you how would you.

540
01:09:21.870 --> 01:09:22.260
You know.

541
01:09:23.520 --> 01:09:31.230
frank murphy: What more can you add what what what What would you add to that you take away from this meeting with us.

542
01:09:31.710 --> 01:09:46.230
Traci Park: yeah my my takeaway in this is your sense of urgency and your level of frustration and I recognize that you guys are sending me to City Hall, with a mandate.

543
01:09:46.710 --> 01:10:01.770
Traci Park: To get these issues addressed as quickly and efficiently as we can my takeaway from these questions is that you recognize how complicated and complex.

544
01:10:02.220 --> 01:10:15.030
Traci Park: problem is and that you recognize that there are a lot of moving parts that all have to be working together in order to get this done and I am adamant that we are going to bring the leadership and the accountability.

545
01:10:15.240 --> 01:10:26.850
Traci Park: And the Community collaboration back to how we are addressing and managing this problem, like many of you, I have been in this Community, and increasingly frustrated.

546
01:10:27.150 --> 01:10:35.490
Traci Park: By the unwillingness of our Council member to hear us to collaborate with us to address our concerns.

547
01:10:36.090 --> 01:10:47.490
Traci Park: So I got in this race that ends with me, I expect you to hold me accountable I want your input I want your help solving this problem and designing what the right solutions.

548
01:10:47.760 --> 01:11:02.160
Traci Park: For us here in Venice are going to be when you're going to have my partnership to do that it's why i'm here that's why i'm running and I welcome the opportunity to do that as we move forward, but I hear your urgency and I hear your frustration, I share it.

549
01:11:04.530 --> 01:11:05.190
frank murphy: Tracy.

550
01:11:05.490 --> 01:11:05.760
Vicki Halliday: Thank.

551
01:11:05.850 --> 01:11:07.800
frank murphy: you so much for your.

552
01:11:10.290 --> 01:11:14.190

Vicki Halliday: about this motion.

610
01:17:37.560 --> 01:17:49.320
Arc: Well, I mean I have like like it kind of sums up all of your guys's issue if you guys have a second just to listen, you know and i'm like, speaking from the bottom and not from the top, like you, guys so.

611
01:17:50.910 --> 01:17:57.060
Arc: Really, to be honest, like the number one question is, what are we going to do with the people that don't want help.

612
01:17:58.200 --> 01:18:11.340
Arc: And, and when we solve that and we'll get the answer that question and we solve everything and and really that we just need to give these people space, just to let them be who they want to be in hill so like.

613
01:18:11.640 --> 01:18:13.980
Arc: We need to be able to find that space to do so.

614
01:18:15.810 --> 01:18:16.380
Arc: and

615
01:18:18.030 --> 01:18:24.000
Arc: I have, I have a group of people and we're coming together to file a lawsuit against the city so.

616
01:18:24.810 --> 01:18:29.430
Arc: In this reality that we live in, you can claim to be and identify as whoever you want to be.

617
01:18:30.060 --> 01:18:52.590
Arc: And like you were saying there's drastic measures like we got to do some crazy shit to move forward with with what we're what we're trying to do so, I have a big ass rv and i'm going to paint it like a a beehive and it's going to be very nice and and I identify as a Bumblebee.

618
01:18:53.820 --> 01:18:55.830
Arc: And i'm going to file a lawsuit.

619
01:18:56.190 --> 01:18:58.980

01:19:16.920 --> 01:19:20.190
Lionel Mares: And I gave it is perfectly common general.

625
01:19:20.430 --> 01:19:22.620
Vicki Halliday: No, it isn't a specific motion.

626
01:19:25.680 --> 01:19:26.550
Lionel Mares: Which one.

627
01:19:27.090 --> 01:19:29.310
Vicki Halliday: it's the one on no.

628
01:19:29.850 --> 01:19:30.540
frank murphy: Item one.

629
01:19:31.530 --> 01:19:34.050
Vicki Halliday: Item one on the agenda on the screen.

630
01:19:35.490 --> 01:19:37.950
Vicki Halliday: That adding to the.

631
01:19:39.000 --> 01:19:41.760
Vicki Halliday: rule prohibiting line sleeping.

632
01:19:42.870 --> 01:19:43.350
Lionel Mares: Oh.

633
01:19:43.410 --> 01:19:46.170
Vicki Halliday: thing within 500 feet of the library.

634
01:19:46.500 --> 01:19:58.890
Lionel Mares: Okay wow okay i'll make this brief I don't think that further criminalization of homelessness isn't gonna do anything because I live in a neighborhood where we have announced people to in the San Fernando valley and.

635
01:19:59.550 --> 01:20:08.700
Lionel Mares: What i've seen my own eyes simple web read as Eric time on each customer pushes and on house or homeless individual from place to place.

636
01:20:09.360 --> 01:20:16.290
Lionel Mares: As a revolving door it's a cycle and they're going to disappear, and many of these individuals are dying.

637
01:20:17.190 --> 01:20:29.040
Lionel Mares: i've seen people infected because some of them are diabetic and that infection under legs and some of them can aren't able to seek medical attention because the last up.

638
01:20:29.580 --> 01:20:42.030
Lionel Mares: I are trying to find where they are and they're being moved from place to place and I don't think that expanding the 41 point 18 Minutes will quote or do anything that have with each Council.

639
01:20:42.330 --> 01:20:53.040
Lionel Mares: needs to take part in solving this building public housing, not just you know pushing them away and why other constants you have to take the burden it's not fair for.

640
01:20:53.100 --> 01:20:55.440
frank murphy: that's one that's one minute, why no.

641
01:20:55.500 --> 01:20:57.150
frank murphy: Okay, what is your.

642
01:20:57.360 --> 01:20:57.780
Your.

643
01:21:00.210 --> 01:21:01.020
Vicki Halliday: Erica more.

644
01:21:03.240 --> 01:21:08.340
Erica Moore: hey there um, I just wanted to encourage everybody who's listening to.

645
01:21:09.420 --> 01:21:20.790
Erica Moore: follow the agenda and I wanted to say that I am absolutely in favor of this, I think it makes a lot of sense because it's not about criminalizing homeless it's about having a space for when kids and stuff like that are.

646
01:21:21.060 --> 01:21:21.990
Erica Moore: going to the.

647
01:21:22.050 --> 01:21:24.750
Erica Moore: library they're not having to mitigate.

648
01:21:25.890 --> 01:21:41.160
Erica Moore: And people and needles and things like that, so I absolutely think we need to find a place for the homeless, to be absolutely but I don't think near eight within 500 feet of a library is where they should be so i've strongly in favor of this as well, thank you.

649
01:21:41.520 --> 01:21:42.390
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Erica.

Vicki Halliday: Next up Margaret boy go Margaret.

663
01:22:28.350 --> 01:22:41.100
Margaret Molloy: hi guys, this is a revolving door at the dnc but where are the public bathroom And why is that never an issue so there's almost no public bathrooms libraries happen to have them.

664
01:22:41.670 --> 01:22:50.010
Margaret Molloy: And, most people have belongings, because their house with no where to store them, you all know that so yeah Of course we want safe.

665
01:22:50.400 --> 01:22:55.800
Margaret Molloy: You know kids space, but we also need to be humane and these are publicly funded public.

666
01:22:56.640 --> 01:23:14.670
Margaret Molloy: facilities and institutions and amenities, you cannot discriminate against who goes and who doesn't go inside of a public facility in that way, and it will be a discrimination lawsuit that's obvious so like why spend time on this stuff's spent among solutions, please, thank you.

667
01:23:14.910 --> 01:23:19.590
Vicki Halliday: Thank you, Margaret um let's see Lisa redmond Lisa go ahead.

668
01:23:21.870 --> 01:23:22.350
Lisa Redmond: i'm.

669
01:23:23.700 --> 01:23:33.510
Lisa Redmond: 4118 is bad it's just bad bad news and any attempt to expand it further, is just taking away anything.

670
01:23:34.680 --> 01:23:48.480
Lisa Redmond: and making fewer and fewer places for people to live, but this one is especially harmful because you are basically dictating people that are humans constituents stakeholders.

671
01:23:49.650 --> 01:24:02.280
Lisa Redmond: who have a right to go into the library by picking and choosing who gets to use a library by saying i'm sorry, you do not have a permanent roof over your House over your head at night you're not the library.

672
01:24:03.420 --> 01:24:13.560
Lisa Redmond: it's just you're picking and choosing and it's just plain wrong, I will be going to City Hall tomorrow to fight against any expansion of further.

673
01:24:15.660 --> 01:24:20.040
Lisa Redmond: it's just bad news, and I would encourage everybody to vote against it.

674
01:24:21.450 --> 01:24:22.440
frank murphy: Thank you Lisa.

675
01:24:23.250 --> 01:24:25.590
Vicki Halliday: On next up Helen Helen Helen Juliet.

676
01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:41.550
Helen Fallon: wow, I would like to urge you to vote in favor of this, I think we experience we're having 500 feet of a homeless encampment near the library resulted in it resulted in.

677
01:24:42.120 --> 01:24:48.750
Helen Fallon: The Community being excluded from using the facility it resulted from a fire resulted in a fire.

678
01:24:49.380 --> 01:24:55.980
Helen Fallon: That potentially could have seriously damage the building because families to stop coming to the library.

679
01:24:56.670 --> 01:25:03.330
Helen Fallon: It 500 feet, is not that big a distance and there's a lot of space in La and a lot of miles.

680
01:25:03.720 --> 01:25:13.500
Helen Fallon: And this is this is allowing a public facility with the library to be available for everyone to use, no one was preventing homeless people from using the library.

681
01:25:13.860 --> 01:25:30.660
Helen Fallon: Prior to that encampment moving next to it in Venice, but once they and Cameron was there, it just became an attraction for criminals for crazy people, it was so disruptive and so chaotic It made it impossible for library to operate, so please vote to support this Thank you.

682
01:25:31.350 --> 01:25:36.180
Vicki Halliday: Thanks um okay john T john go ahead.

683
01:25:39.300 --> 01:25:46.530

684
01:25:47.640 --> 01:25:50.760

Vicki Halliday: Nick go ahead.

687
01:26:00.390 --> 01:26:09.270
Nick Antonicello: The reason for this motion is obvious, because all you have to do is look at the condition of the library today have a fence around it.

688
01:26:09.750 --> 01:26:16.410
Nick Antonicello: The building probably should be raised and so dysfunctional inside the reason one goes to libraries to.

689
01:26:16.890 --> 01:26:23.910
Nick Antonicello: Get books and videos and other things it's not a place to live it's not a place to take a shower and a public bathroom.

690
01:26:24.900 --> 01:26:37.530
Nick Antonicello: And this kind of motion is what we need to make sure that the larva is used to the appropriate purposes and doesn't turn into a surface what you've been for the last seven months, thank you.

01:26:50.850 --> 01:26:57.330
Isaac c: I think that you know there's there's no end in sight so having some balanced rules to make sure that things like libraries are open to everybody.

696
01:26:57.810 --> 01:27:08.850
Isaac c: are safe for us it's just kind of common sense type of changes that we need to stop is complex, but balancing the kind of use for everybody is super important, so I support this.

Thank you.

712
01:28:35.010 --> 01:28:46.170
Vicki Halliday: I mean, I think it's a self explanatory motion it just helps with what we've endured at centennial and could and other places, I think it says sensible amendment.

713
01:28:51.450 --> 01:28:51.990
frank murphy: God.

714
01:28:52.770 --> 01:29:14.670
Jody Mortimer: yeah my my comment is to the individual i'm sorry I don't remember his name, though, was saying that making this this motion would make it illegal for the homeless, to use the library that's not the case, they can still use the library, they just can't camp at the library on the sidewalk.

715
01:29:15.810 --> 01:29:26.520
Jody Mortimer: I don't see this discrimination and myself being homeless primarily helpless I don't see this discrimination see it was it was it was a pretty common sense.

716
01:29:27.600 --> 01:29:28.230
Jody Mortimer: So yeah.

717
01:29:34.500 --> 01:29:35.490
frank murphy: anybody else.

718
01:29:40.740 --> 01:29:41.610
frank murphy: um.

719
01:29:43.410 --> 01:29:44.550
frank murphy: Well, I think.

720
01:29:46.530 --> 01:29:49.620
frank murphy: vicki I think we can take a vote on it and.

721
01:29:52.200 --> 01:29:57.270
frank murphy: You know, and then we can adjust it later if need be, and that's the way it's gotta be.

722
01:29:57.600 --> 01:29:57.900
yeah.

723
01:29:59.370 --> 01:30:01.200
Pat Raphael: that's a question for everybody.

724
01:30:03.900 --> 01:30:04.920
frank murphy: yeah yeah.

725
01:30:05.100 --> 01:30:06.870
frank murphy: I mean, I was asking for comments.

726
01:30:06.870 --> 01:30:10.560
Pat Raphael: And I raised my physical hand because.

727
01:30:11.040 --> 01:30:11.610
frank murphy: i'm sorry.

728
01:30:11.970 --> 01:30:15.630
frank murphy: I didn't see your screen I apologize yeah.

729
01:30:16.050 --> 01:30:27.540
Pat Raphael: So basically we want to make sure that we're not adding to a thing that's already not working right, so the current.

730
01:30:29.250 --> 01:30:32.100
Pat Raphael: Application of 41.

731
01:30:34.650 --> 01:30:47.310
Pat Raphael: The sidewalk camping group man right it's already in place every day from seven in the morning to 9pm at night right so it's not about the library we're talking about.

732
01:30:48.150 --> 01:30:54.450
Pat Raphael: we're seeing that people are attracted to the library, because a lot of the services that were failing to provide.

733
01:30:54.960 --> 01:31:01.560
Pat Raphael: The library also has it there for people to to access, so what i'm asking is.

734
01:31:02.070 --> 01:31:12.660
Pat Raphael: If the ban on camping on the sidewalk and setting up a tent all day is already in place and it's not being enforced, why is adding this thing to say.

735
01:31:13.620 --> 01:31:23.040
Pat Raphael: Now let's put a specific emphasis around the library when do we know why people are being attracted to the library just something for us to think about as we're.

736
01:31:23.400 --> 01:31:26.640
Pat Raphael: Probably bought the press this thing for.

737
01:31:28.710 --> 01:31:29.760
frank murphy: Thank thank.

738
01:31:35.760 --> 01:31:36.420
frank murphy: Okay.

739
01:31:39.840 --> 01:31:47.670
frank murphy: My comment, and I appreciate pets COM, and I do understand that the full, you know that this is a.

740
01:31:50.160 --> 01:32:01.500
frank murphy: You know that that the overall problem is going to be solved by this one situation, but this one situation is something that needs to be addressed is my only comment on that.

741
01:32:02.040 --> 01:32:17.760
frank murphy: And so, even if we have to do situation by situation that's the way we got to do it that's what we got to do so, I would say I would vote for this in order to at least get one item.

742
01:32:18.840 --> 01:32:19.590
frank murphy: Out of the way.

743
01:32:20.850 --> 01:32:21.600
frank murphy: um.

744
01:32:22.830 --> 01:32:26.010
frank murphy: Does anybody else have any comments saying.

745
01:32:26.820 --> 01:32:29.400
Ansar Muhammad: I don't comment but I guess I can, I think.

746
01:32:32.160 --> 01:32:34.260
Ansar Muhammad: If there was no criminal activity.

747
01:32:35.820 --> 01:32:38.280
Ansar Muhammad: Drug use overdoses etc.

748
01:32:39.690 --> 01:32:43.950
Ansar Muhammad: attached to what we're talking about we've been a with.

749
01:32:45.270 --> 01:32:58.440
Ansar Muhammad: A schools and libraries and things of that nature, I probably wouldn't go for it, but because of the criminal you know it's not we keep saying homeless, but let's let's notice thing down to.

750
01:32:59.460 --> 01:33:07.080
Ansar Muhammad: The criminal element, the violence, you know the abuse the sexual assaults and things of that nature that happens.

751
01:33:07.770 --> 01:33:26.640
Ansar Muhammad: And when we want to really address it that's the elephant in the room, and nobody is talking about it, I think it's the homeless situation didn't have those elements this wouldn't be necessary, but because of these elements, you have you know attics man and.

752
01:33:28.260 --> 01:33:33.450
Ansar Muhammad: things happen that shouldn't be happening in some of these areas, I mean stuff that i've seen with my own eyes.

753
01:33:34.230 --> 01:33:43.890
Ansar Muhammad: And nobody's addressing it so for that reason I will build for this, because we're looking at sensitive areas like schools and libraries.

754
01:33:44.430 --> 01:33:55.980
Ansar Muhammad: That common folk and civilians is being impacted by it so that's just I wasn't going to speak to it, but I think you know I think it's only appropriate that I do thank you.

755
01:33:56.790 --> 01:33:58.800
frank murphy: Thank you, Sam okay.

756

frank murphy: Okay, so now we're.

792
01:37:10.770 --> 01:37:12.060
frank murphy: At public comment.

793
01:37:12.480 --> 01:37:14.670
Vicki Halliday: yeah let me get this up.

794
01:37:15.750 --> 01:37:19.740
Vicki Halliday: um first step is Nick Nick go ahead.

795
01:37:21.600 --> 01:37:30.810
Nick Antonicello: yeah, this is the second time this has been brought up in the language you have here, it says these lockers the various side and incorporate.

796
01:37:31.380 --> 01:37:39.060
Nick Antonicello: Your point airport temporary locker mode safety deposit box for 60 Gal and then model is a big difference.

797
01:37:39.780 --> 01:37:50.250
Nick Antonicello: between a safety deposit box for what's at the airport and a 60 down then ma, so I think you really need to kind of clean that language up.

798
01:37:50.820 --> 01:37:59.040
Nick Antonicello: and say exactly what you're seeking and I think the location is important too, because it's very generic where we're going to put this.

799
01:37:59.520 --> 01:38:14.520
Nick Antonicello: And like I said there's a big difference between a 60 gallon been model which we had down at the paddle courts years if some of you recall, and just having a box for like personal documents and things like that.

800
01:38:16.740 --> 01:38:17.370
Vicki Halliday: Thank you, Nick.

801
01:38:17.760 --> 01:38:20.010
Vicki Halliday: I think Margaret go ahead.

802
01:38:21.480 --> 01:38:33.690
Margaret Molloy: yeah I like the sentiment of it, but I don't think it's practical and there's a lot of elderly and you are incessantly talking about mentally ill people are they supposed to get to these locations and.

803
01:38:34.290 --> 01:38:43.860
Margaret Molloy: You know there's so much criticism of bridge housing, so now you want all of the people who are announced to be going in and out of rich housing for storage.

804
01:38:44.220 --> 01:38:52.830
Margaret Molloy: I don't think you people like think these things through in a meaningful way because you're trying to close down bridge housing you're trying to.

805
01:38:53.190 --> 01:39:05.100
Margaret Molloy: not allow an extension of it, and nobody seems to acknowledge that there was a coven pandemic and the scares scares thousand foot area was suspended for co but.

806
01:39:05.670 --> 01:39:14.580
Margaret Molloy: Why don't you start with that and all your statements of criticism of the you know area around bridge housing, it has been enforced recently.

807
01:39:14.970 --> 01:39:24.180
Margaret Molloy: Why don't you acknowledge that you know Tracy pork is on here and she's saying silo going of services, you can't call anybody for mental health, but you all want.

808
01:39:24.690 --> 01:39:26.760
Margaret Molloy: That, unlike bonnet so.

809
01:39:26.910 --> 01:39:31.920
Margaret Molloy: Yes, you absolutely need storage, but you all got rid of these Margaret.

810
01:39:32.040 --> 01:39:32.880
frank murphy: Thank you, Margaret.

811
01:39:35.880 --> 01:39:38.490
Vicki Halliday: On next up there with a go ahead girl.

812
01:39:42.000 --> 01:39:58.080
Darryl DuFay: hi Thank you, as I looked over the motion, I asked the question has anybody contact and St joseph's or bridge nowadays if they have space for this, and the second thing is accessibility.

813
01:39:59.610 --> 01:40:12.450
Darryl DuFay: Alright, so going to be open for anybody that has something there an hour a day an hour a week, that is not addressed I think they're this motion needs more work, thank you.

814
01:40:13.470 --> 01:40:17.850
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Darrell um next up Lisa redmond go ahead Lisa.

815
01:40:20.490 --> 01:40:32.520
Lisa Redmond: i'm again, like last month, I really appreciate the intention of providing storage for our House stakeholders, but there's a lot to be desired in this motion.

816
01:40:32.910 --> 01:40:42.720
Lisa Redmond: In the sense of you're asking the city of Los Angeles, to provide the materials and just assuming that St joseph's is going to want to jump on board and take care of it.

817
01:40:44.010 --> 01:40:47.520
Lisa Redmond: And then, as awful as I think path has been.

818
01:40:48.780 --> 01:41:00.870
Lisa Redmond: Being providing services and not being a good neighbor The one thing that they have done right and kept the promise to is there are no walk up services allowed at the bridge home.

819
01:41:01.650 --> 01:41:10.890
Lisa Redmond: Right you can't demand that that happens, because there are no walk up services at the bridge home, so that is not an apple storage facility.

820
01:41:12.030 --> 01:41:22.680
Lisa Redmond: I do know for a fact that chrysalis has a couple storage bins they would like to put some in Venice, but they had some very specific reasonings of where they should be, maybe somebody.

821
01:41:23.550 --> 01:41:24.030
Lisa Redmond: With them.

822
01:41:25.050 --> 01:41:27.450
Lisa Redmond: and talk to chrysalis they have staff people.

823
01:41:29.730 --> 01:41:30.180
frank murphy: Thank you.

824
01:41:30.480 --> 01:41:33.720
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Lisa i'm Erica go ahead.

825
01:41:36.090 --> 01:41:44.640
Erica Moore: hi there, I just wanted to say that I love the intention to I mean I think everybody should have a place to put their stuff and especially if you are on how.

826
01:41:45.090 --> 01:41:51.300
Erica Moore: What a nightmare, and your special papers should have a special kind of box within the storage unit to keep those things saying.

827
01:41:51.840 --> 01:42:01.110
Erica Moore: But I do agree that this has to be looked at as to the structure of it, and I think that there needs to be a conversation with people who are more familiar with.

828
01:42:01.740 --> 01:42:07.950
Erica Moore: This system and how this system does work, meaning the places like what Lisa redmond was just talking about certain places.

829
01:42:08.460 --> 01:42:25.410
Erica Moore: Possibly could facilitate that but others probably couldn't I think that there has to be a wider net thrown to be able to examine this particular situation, but I am in favor of something, but not but not this way this is written at this time, thanks so much for your efforts on they.

830
01:42:25.650 --> 01:42:26.010
Were.

831
01:42:27.510 --> 01:42:47.790
Vicki Halliday: um can I raise my hand and say something on when it comes to bridge housing there, there is unused land there, especially on the Pacific side um I think it could be possible to put a separate gate up and a fenced off area.

832
01:42:48.990 --> 01:43:11.160
Vicki Halliday: Where storage could be maintained and it wouldn't be a walk up service of bridge housing, it would just be using some of that land, but I think all sorts of stuff like that God has to be you know kind of figured out um and I agree with everybody, I think the heart of the motion is great.

833
01:43:12.900 --> 01:43:20.640
Vicki Halliday: I i'm torn about how much do you information do you provide to the city or do you just.

834
01:43:20.640 --> 01:43:21.300
Vicki Halliday: provide.

835
01:43:21.600 --> 01:43:32.280
Vicki Halliday: The concept of this and we're pushing the concept and then let the city figure it out, I mean they don't figure things out too well, as it is so it's probably better to.

836
01:43:33.930 --> 01:43:37.890
Vicki Halliday: Give them give them as much information as possible or as much detail.

837
01:43:39.030 --> 01:43:40.440
frank murphy: we're in committee.

838
01:43:41.040 --> 01:43:41.490
Committee.

839
01:43:44.160 --> 01:43:46.560
frank murphy: yeah Stan you had your hand up.

840
01:43:47.070 --> 01:43:56.910
Ansar Muhammad: yeah i'm looking at it, this is a great great idea I think everybody spoke to the audience spoke to it, I think it needs to be.

841
01:43:58.680 --> 01:44:10.290
Ansar Muhammad: built upon I think when we bring these type of motions, we should have example where the where this type of operation is currently taking place.

842
01:44:10.920 --> 01:44:19.890
Ansar Muhammad: How successful Is it because what we don't want to happen, but something in front of the city council or the neighborhood Council to get it voted down so.

843
01:44:20.550 --> 01:44:33.570
Ansar Muhammad: I just think it needs to be built upon, and I do know the homeless Community need a place to store their belongings, so I think we can get it done, we just need to build on.

844
01:44:35.370 --> 01:44:35.970
Ansar Muhammad: Thank you.

845
01:44:39.720 --> 01:44:40.200
Vicki Halliday: Brian.

846
01:44:41.010 --> 01:44:41.430
God.

847
01:44:42.930 --> 01:44:58.800
Brian U: God God, I think he the intent and pat worked on this we had that conversation last week and I think the intent is absolutely a need that we need to do, God we were talking about important papers and that's where we discussed a safety deposit type.

848
01:44:59.940 --> 01:45:04.530
Brian U: unit, not necessarily the 60 gallon not necessarily lockers.

849
01:45:05.190 --> 01:45:06.810
Brian U: But something just for paperwork.

850
01:45:07.260 --> 01:45:11.160
Brian U: I think everybody needs to maybe think back I know a lot of people on this call.

851
01:45:12.180 --> 01:45:27.840
Brian U: In 2016 we spent months trying to figure out a storage plan and we created in the presentation decks and flyers and had a big meeting at the in person meeting at the neighborhood Council and we voted to do the mobile storage plan.

852
01:45:28.560 --> 01:45:40.050
Brian U: And I think what i'm trying to put it at the last moment here is to say it doesn't really matter what we we give we put that plan in in 2016 we never heard a peep from the city.

853
01:45:40.530 --> 01:45:46.320
Brian U: we're going to put this motion and and St Joseph is not going to pay for it, unless the city says we're going to pay for it so.

854
01:45:46.710 --> 01:45:59.610
Brian U: Do these motions actually go to someplace where we're going to get a response, so I think we can rewrite it to do safety deposit box only within our facilities and we talked about this within the facilities of St Joseph Center.

855
01:46:00.060 --> 01:46:02.850
Brian U: Because they have the list of who's on the coordinated entry system.

856
01:46:03.090 --> 01:46:04.830
Brian U: And then we said, the people to use that.

857
01:46:04.920 --> 01:46:16.920
Brian U: would be people that are registered the House that are on the coordinated entry system list, and if we can do that, I think it's also problem that that uh both pat and cody were trying to do, to begin with.

858
01:46:18.900 --> 01:46:20.310
Brian U: God yeah.

859
01:46:21.240 --> 01:46:21.780
Elizabeth.

860
01:46:25.890 --> 01:46:26.490
frank murphy: Elizabeth.

861
01:46:28.740 --> 01:46:33.210
Elizabeth Wright: Just as an example of how many people were talking about.

862
01:46:34.410 --> 01:46:44.760
Elizabeth Wright: i'm a homeowner have life insurance, I have a car, social security, all that kind of stuff and all my critical papers would fit into a decent sized file folder.

863
01:46:45.330 --> 01:46:45.600
Right.

864
01:46:46.650 --> 01:46:48.750
Elizabeth Wright: So it's really not a lot of.

865
01:46:50.040 --> 01:46:51.030
Melbourne person.

866
01:46:58.890 --> 01:46:59.430
Jody Mortimer: So.

867
01:47:01.740 --> 01:47:02.700
Jody Mortimer: yeah.

868
01:47:03.960 --> 01:47:04.380
Jody Mortimer: Thanks oh.

869
01:47:04.680 --> 01:47:10.830
frank murphy: Okay, hang on God like Colette responded Nemo and then you can sort of go back over everything.

870
01:47:15.270 --> 01:47:22.140
C Bailey: I think you guys already probably address was going to say in terms of the size it doesn't need to be that big.

871
01:47:23.220 --> 01:47:46.320
C Bailey: A small safe deposit box size and where obviously new facilities are in the facilities that are already being used and making sure that we're not impacting neighborhoods even further and they're already being impacted by homeless and making sure that the surroundings are kept safe.

872
01:47:48.750 --> 01:47:49.410
frank murphy: Thanks Colin.

873
01:47:50.700 --> 01:47:52.080
frank murphy: All right, God sorry about that.

874
01:47:52.860 --> 01:47:58.200
Jody Mortimer: So I think go with the stuff discuss this with Brian and Brian and.

875
01:48:00.120 --> 01:48:12.000
Jody Mortimer: I think that using the two the two already established, and you know if it has to be bridge housing there's something to be set up there, I had no idea, they didn't do walk up services so that's that's that could be.

876
01:48:12.690 --> 01:48:21.780
Jody Mortimer: could read you just started with St josephs or maybe that somebody mentioned another one well yeah just a 15 deposit box like of mailboxes and.

877
01:48:23.850 --> 01:48:27.600
Jody Mortimer: Like the see that the coordinated entry system that they have to.

878
01:48:28.830 --> 01:48:30.510
Jody Mortimer: make an end there, they can.

879
01:48:31.860 --> 01:48:44.220
Jody Mortimer: For example, i'm housed I have a great support system, I was robbed on the train last week and I still i'm having a hard time I went for a good look at.

880
01:48:44.640 --> 01:48:52.740
Jody Mortimer: an appointment for a job interview, and they won't even interview you without your identification, so it is very, very difficult.

881
01:48:53.610 --> 01:49:06.870
Jody Mortimer: own House need this this ability and what makes a great by having that one of the services that are already out there is they have trained professionals to that are there, the wraparound so when they go there, so.

882
01:49:07.830 --> 01:49:16.710
Jody Mortimer: To get this they can save this listen, you know you really should put these the the original driver's license or whatever.

883
01:49:17.340 --> 01:49:26.160
Jody Mortimer: Documents in these boxes and will give you copies because you're not going to need that other stuff out on the road, unless you've got to go do something where you need it did you come back for it it's.

884
01:49:26.640 --> 01:49:37.080
Jody Mortimer: it's one of the biggest things that happens to the homeless officers, they get robbed again they lose their stuff all the time, and of course with the mental health issue.

885
01:49:37.950 --> 01:49:46.920
Jody Mortimer: And we want them to pick up their stuff on the, off the streets are eventually going to have to have somewhere for them to store it because they're not leaving the sidewalks because they have no waste no place.

886
01:49:47.880 --> 01:49:54.630
Jody Mortimer: to store their stuff that all gets taken from them so well, it seems like a really easy thing to do, that these these these.

887
01:49:56.790 --> 01:50:02.490
Jody Mortimer: Big organizations that are out that are just bringing in the money that they actually do some of this.

888
01:50:03.810 --> 01:50:06.990
Jody Mortimer: Some simple work no brainer kind of stuff.

889
01:50:08.160 --> 01:50:11.580
Jody Mortimer: Then it would be the city that would require them to do that that's what we're saying.

890
01:50:14.250 --> 01:50:14.910
Jody Mortimer: that's that's always.

891
01:50:15.090 --> 01:50:15.870
100%.

892
01:50:18.900 --> 01:50:19.290
well.

893
01:50:24.750 --> 01:50:27.660
Brian U: As any Has anybody has anybody talked to St joseph's Center.

894
01:50:30.480 --> 01:50:31.170
Brian U: about this.

895
01:50:32.550 --> 01:50:34.500
Jody Mortimer: I would, if I, if I have permission to do.

896
01:50:35.160 --> 01:50:37.410
Brian U: We always have permission, you can walk right in and asking.

897
01:50:37.470 --> 01:50:38.970
Brian U: I mean frank frank.

898
01:50:39.030 --> 01:50:43.980
Brian U: don't don't they have mailboxes for everybody that's registered.

899
01:50:45.000 --> 01:50:50.730
Brian U: homeless, they they receive mail they receive things at St joseph's Center the post office box or whatever.

900
01:50:51.510 --> 01:50:52.740
Brian U: expand that.

901
01:50:52.770 --> 01:50:54.060
Brian U: Just expand that Program.

902
01:50:55.470 --> 01:50:57.270
frank murphy: That says, I understand it, yes.

903
01:50:57.330 --> 01:51:14.880
Brian U: yeah, so why don't we just meet with the person that does the mail or the services at St joseph's Center and then and then go backwards and come back next month and say hey we researched this St Joseph Center has the room and space to add on to their already existing mail delivers.

904
01:51:17.970 --> 01:51:18.900
frank murphy: yeah.

905
01:51:18.930 --> 01:51:22.620
Jody Mortimer: You can also go over and talk to Rachel see.

906
01:51:25.440 --> 01:51:26.670
frank murphy: pad you got your hand up.

907
01:51:28.860 --> 01:51:31.200
Pat Raphael: So i'm just thinking that.

908
01:51:32.400 --> 01:51:33.000
Pat Raphael: should be.

909
01:51:36.510 --> 01:51:41.940
Pat Raphael: Right and not having the specifics, are now in the motion.

910
01:51:42.420 --> 01:51:43.950
Pat Raphael: And then letting the city.

911
01:51:44.040 --> 01:51:59.910
Pat Raphael: As the executive branch kind of work out how they're going to do it, so we can have something like where where we think it should be laid out and who should be managing it and then just as broad as possible, because I think we're getting stuck in the details when.

912
01:52:00.120 --> 01:52:11.880
Pat Raphael: The tip I think we should be communicating is, if we want people to not have their stuff on the sidewalk right it's good to give them a place to put their stuff now it seems to be.

913
01:52:13.050 --> 01:52:15.000
Pat Raphael: The conversation is migrating towards.

914
01:52:16.230 --> 01:52:28.920
Pat Raphael: A tiny post office box type of situation or something just for documents but i'm saying if we give the intent to the city and then let the city find out how they can.

915
01:52:30.570 --> 01:52:34.500
Pat Raphael: do this in pit that we communicate to them here in Venice.

916
01:52:34.860 --> 01:52:42.810
Pat Raphael: And I agree that places that already have lots of land available, like the bridge house, even if we're not doing it.

917
01:52:43.230 --> 01:52:56.010
Pat Raphael: in coordination with path in the bridge house, the real estates already there, this is something that's going to take room right let's just lay out the intention and then let them write out the details, with what they have.

918
01:52:57.390 --> 01:52:57.900
frank murphy: alright.

919
01:52:59.550 --> 01:53:00.240
frank murphy: So.

920
01:53:03.450 --> 01:53:19.980
frank murphy: Let me propose something here real quick, what about if we, I agree with you, Pat that we shouldn't that we might not want to be that specific so that it allows for flexibility, on the other, on the other parties.

921
01:53:21.750 --> 01:53:24.180
frank murphy: are having to solve this so.

922
01:53:26.670 --> 01:53:44.580
frank murphy: I think everything reads really well until we get down to the 60 gallon been I think just taking up the 60 gallon bin and losing the parentheses around St joseph's and bridge housing, they can work out how they can do that.

923
01:53:45.810 --> 01:53:58.200
frank murphy: St Joseph we can still approach them, we can still approach St joseph's and say hey listen we pass this thing can we, you know, can we use a portion of your.

924
01:53:58.830 --> 01:54:09.990
frank murphy: You know how can we accommodate this and the same thing with the bridge housing, as we can approach path or whomever is managing bridge housing and say how can this be accommodated.

925
01:54:11.370 --> 01:54:22.230
frank murphy: You know we're asking him requesting it of you, how can we accommodate but anyhow that would just be one cut at it, or we can come back at it next month and.

926
01:54:23.280 --> 01:54:29.820
frank murphy: And and refine it and come back next month, so just That was where my thoughts were.

927
01:54:30.960 --> 01:54:31.230
Elizabeth Wright: I would.

928
01:54:31.470 --> 01:54:32.700
Elizabeth Wright: recommend next month.

929
01:54:35.970 --> 01:54:40.320
frank murphy: What what let's ask God, where he might want to go with that.

930
01:54:42.090 --> 01:54:57.450
Jody Mortimer: Ah yeah Of course I mean I I we can come back to imagine what was mentioned about just taking those little pieces out and just use it as the safety deposit boxes or small lockers.

931
01:54:58.710 --> 01:55:02.130
Jody Mortimer: Even just to throw safety deposit mailboxes.

932
01:55:03.300 --> 01:55:04.740
Jody Mortimer: We can start pushing it forward.

933
01:55:06.330 --> 01:55:08.610
Vicki Halliday: Okay, then, if that one.

934
01:55:11.040 --> 01:55:11.460
Jody Mortimer: yeah.

935
01:55:12.060 --> 01:55:16.140
Vicki Halliday: Okay there's two areas out that frank talked about yeah.

936
01:55:20.160 --> 01:55:21.090
Vicki Halliday: But I need a second.

937
01:55:21.840 --> 01:55:22.500
Brian U: i'll second that.

938
01:55:22.980 --> 01:55:23.250
Okay.

939
01:55:24.810 --> 01:55:26.160
Vicki Halliday: Liz is that doable.

940
01:55:30.360 --> 01:55:31.440
Elizabeth Wright: yeah yeah.

941
01:55:32.340 --> 01:55:35.070
Vicki Halliday: I guess, we have to take what public comment on the amendment.

942
01:55:35.550 --> 01:55:37.050
Brian U: Yes, yes.

943
01:55:37.590 --> 01:55:40.740
frank murphy: I did that includes a 60 been 60 gallon when.

944
01:55:41.070 --> 01:55:41.970
Brian U: you're taking it out.

945
01:55:42.960 --> 01:55:51.000
Jody Mortimer: Everything out, except for the safety deposit box, so you can deposit and that temporary locker mobile do something.

946
01:55:52.800 --> 01:55:57.180
frank murphy: Well, I was thinking that the St joseph's and bridge housing use you.

947
01:55:57.180 --> 01:56:02.790
frank murphy: could say in the Venice Community at St joseph's and bridge housing period.

948
01:56:03.300 --> 01:56:03.840
frank murphy: I mean.

949
01:56:05.160 --> 01:56:06.690

frank murphy: All right.

952
01:56:14.820 --> 01:56:18.180
Pat Raphael: we're just saying storage, this is very broad.

953
01:56:18.990 --> 01:56:20.550
frank murphy: very broad can come and think.

954
01:56:20.550 --> 01:56:21.990
Pat Raphael: about what that means let's.

Pat Raphael: Well, it doesn't name it but it's.

967
01:57:07.470 --> 01:57:08.160

01:57:08.820 --> 01:57:11.310

01:57:12.150 --> 01:57:13.470
Jody Mortimer: Just using nonprofit.

970
01:57:15.510 --> 01:57:22.860
frank murphy: yeah cuz we were taking out the two in the parentheses, so that would take that context, out of there.

971
01:57:25.020 --> 01:57:27.270
Pat Raphael: With the broad principle we don't need to spend.

972
01:57:27.750 --> 01:57:28.890

982
01:58:13.740 --> 01:58:17.910
Lisa Redmond: It an individual wants to walk in with St joseph's and say hey St Joseph.

983
01:58:18.150 --> 01:58:33.870
Lisa Redmond: How about you doing this that's fine, but if anybody goes there representing themselves as a Venice neighborhood Council homelessness Committee, you cannot represent the committee and do that kind of work and negotiating so i'm just putting that out there, that is wrong and.

984
01:58:34.980 --> 01:58:37.680
Lisa Redmond: representative of what you are allowed to do.

987
01:58:59.550 --> 01:59:13.110
Sean obrien: fiasco of they're gonna want to use the senior Center in Westminster park and that we had to fight to keep that from going through so now you're opening the door to bring that back end i'm just my two cents, thank you.

988
01:59:14.160 --> 01:59:16.800
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Sean that's the end of public comment right.

Brian U: So they appeal box offices or.

995
01:59:40.350 --> 01:59:48.120
Jody Mortimer: niche with somebody does not does not have an address they they would send it general delivery to the Venice post office.

996
01:59:48.510 --> 02:00:00.810
Jody Mortimer: With their name on it, and then they would go to the post office and say asked her name and then they would go back and check in their pile of general delivery is addressed at general delivery to that person Dennis post office.

997
02:00:02.160 --> 02:00:03.810
Brian U: area and do we know this and do we know.

998
02:00:03.810 --> 02:00:05.400
Brian U: The St Joseph doesn't provide that.

999
02:00:06.000 --> 02:00:11.490
Jody Mortimer: It probably does provide that's why they're saying that's probably what they provide when they say they give everybody.

1000
02:00:12.570 --> 02:00:15.030
Jody Mortimer: Their own mailbox it's just general delivery.

1001
02:00:16.650 --> 02:00:19.230
Brian U: And that's where we want to store stuff that's where it should be.

1002

C Bailey: Okay, I am.

1009
02:00:43.470 --> 02:00:45.480
C Bailey: I don't think I think it needs to be more specific.

1010
02:00:46.650 --> 02:00:53.850
C Bailey: I just knowing what happens and what has happened to the mass community and what has happened to the residents.

1011
02:00:54.780 --> 02:01:09.960
C Bailey: There already over impacted by this whole issue so until we solve those issues it's not fair to ask them to add yet another layer on top of what the Community is dealing with so.

1012
02:01:10.530 --> 02:01:18.420
C Bailey: I think it should be whether it's St josephs or what about fitness Community housing has that big white building on rose.

1013
02:01:19.980 --> 02:01:21.390
C Bailey: there's places that.

1037
02:02:49.080 --> 02:02:53.400
frank murphy: Non agenda items that relate to the homeless committee.

1038
02:02:55.260 --> 02:02:57.840
frank murphy: So do we have any hands from the public.

1039
02:02:57.870 --> 02:02:58.860

02:02:58.920 --> 02:03:01.980
Vicki Halliday: We do I do thank you.

1041
02:03:04.500 --> 02:03:13.830
Darryl DuFay: i'm right here, I just wanted to thank you for this wonderful Roundtable you had tonight, starting with Tracy park.

1042
02:03:15.030 --> 02:03:28.470
Darryl DuFay: I found her refreshing and lightning understanding and she pointed out, the two most important thing, accountability, accountability, it just doesn't exist.

1043
02:03:28.980 --> 02:03:45.540
Darryl DuFay: We have lost that gets 800 and $8 million a year and they're under investigation by the City Council so as a person like her, that would address these issues, I think is very important, thank you.

1044
02:03:46.560 --> 02:03:48.300
Vicki Halliday: Thank you Darrell um.

1045
02:03:48.900 --> 02:03:50.550
Vicki Halliday: Next up Erica more.

1046
02:03:50.940 --> 02:03:52.500
C Bailey: i'd be 30 but you still got it.

1047
02:03:58.830 --> 02:04:00.090
Vicki Halliday: Erica go ahead.

1048
02:04:04.350 --> 02:04:04.920
Vicki Halliday: Erica.

1049
02:04:07.260 --> 02:04:08.340
frank murphy: You want to catch her.

1050
02:04:08.730 --> 02:04:11.130
Vicki Halliday: i'll come back to you Erica i'm.

1051
02:04:12.840 --> 02:04:16.260
Vicki Halliday: shauna Margaret malloy sorry go ahead, Margaret.

1052
02:04:17.250 --> 02:04:39.450
Margaret Molloy: I think that is a really important issue that I didn't see anybody address in commish committee questions to try see or public questions is her statistics on the number of low and moderate income rental units that have been lost in Venice as a settlement agreement in the mellow and.

1053
02:04:40.470 --> 02:04:49.560
Margaret Molloy: Venice town council versus city of Los Angeles, that was settled in 2000 and security shows that the city has been completely non compliant.

1054
02:04:49.950 --> 02:04:58.230
Margaret Molloy: With the settlement meant agreement, so I think it's incumbent on all of you, as the homeless community to do that research frank, you have yours.

1055
02:04:58.650 --> 02:05:04.620
Margaret Molloy: On the land use and planning committee, to my knowledge, and as a developer, you know some inside.

1056
02:05:05.100 --> 02:05:12.750
Margaret Molloy: You know, those are really important statistics, because all this arguing about like how many affordable units are being built in Venice and over.

1057
02:05:13.020 --> 02:05:28.980
Margaret Molloy: it's more than our fair share look at some history people and present those numbers, just like look at the pandemic and its impact on all kinds of public services, when you complain about skills enforcement around the bridge housing.

1058
02:05:29.130 --> 02:05:30.180
frank murphy: that's on the minute that's.

1059
02:05:30.720 --> 02:05:32.610
Margaret Molloy: balances everything, please.

1060
02:05:32.700 --> 02:05:34.470
Margaret Molloy: Please look at those numbers, thank you.

1061
02:05:34.740 --> 02:05:35.460
frank murphy: Thank you, mark.

1062
02:05:36.120 --> 02:05:40.170
Vicki Halliday: Thank you, Margaret i'm next at least redmond go ahead.

1063
02:05:42.270 --> 02:05:47.310
Lisa Redmond: i'm procedurally these are two separate agenda items.

1064
02:05:47.490 --> 02:05:52.200
Lisa Redmond: So everybody should get at least one minute speak on each item and they shouldn't be combined.

1065
02:05:52.620 --> 02:06:10.530
Lisa Redmond: Because one is related to what happened in the meeting and the other is related to know what's on the meeting agenda, so it makes no sense to combine those second procedurally we're not getting Italia votes at the end, I have no idea how you record it pat's boat on the first motion.

1066
02:06:11.880 --> 02:06:16.170
Lisa Redmond: That would be helpful to know and then, when it comes to my comment on the Roundtable.

1067
02:06:16.830 --> 02:06:34.710
Lisa Redmond: I thought it was running very well for the most part, other than God got three to four questions and Brian got a two minute question but scan please stick with the topic that was totally inappropriate for you to bring it into your own personal matter and to be self pro self.

1068
02:06:35.850 --> 02:06:42.000
Lisa Redmond: Promoting a once again to your work and not with the homelessness issue which was the.

1069
02:06:44.970 --> 02:06:45.390
frank murphy: Thank you.

1070
02:06:46.050 --> 02:06:48.210
Vicki Halliday: i'm Michael Please go ahead.

1071
02:06:49.620 --> 02:06:51.570
Lionel Mares: Okay, is this good or public comment now.

1072
02:06:52.770 --> 02:06:53.220
Vicki Halliday: Yes.

1073
02:06:53.430 --> 02:07:03.960
Lionel Mares: Okay, thank you for my general public comment I I listened to what miss Tracy part said, and I understand the homelessness has become a very.

1074
02:07:04.500 --> 02:07:17.340
Lionel Mares: Sensitive controversial debate and i've been participating in this for long for a couple of years now i'm watching activists and here in neighborhood Councils hearing people and, like I said before, I don't think that.

1075
02:07:19.020 --> 02:07:32.100
Lionel Mares: i'm criminalizing or making it difficult for announced people to seek long term solution, says the best approach we have to find long term solutions i'm every neighborhood Council Advisory Council district must help.

1076
02:07:33.120 --> 02:07:47.010
Lionel Mares: All of us from the valley or San Pedro airy Council district must participate and helping resolve this issue, we shouldn't ship ship, the burden on to other Council districts, I have.

1077
02:07:47.430 --> 02:07:54.000
Lionel Mares: On house neighbors myself in my district number six and networking is not doing a great job no one's perfect and.

1078
02:07:55.140 --> 02:07:55.830
We all have.

1079
02:07:57.240 --> 02:07:57.930
Lionel Mares: Thank you.

1080
02:08:00.450 --> 02:08:04.710
Vicki Halliday: we'll go back to Erica Erica did you want to talk.

1081
02:08:05.670 --> 02:08:08.160
Erica Moore: Every go my phone work.

1082
02:08:09.240 --> 02:08:16.230
Erica Moore: Okay, probably operator here anyways I just want to thank you very much vicki I know that you probably worked very hard to.

1083
02:08:16.740 --> 02:08:26.790
Erica Moore: Create that opportunity for us to listen to one of the candidates tonight, and I really for one really appreciated that one thing that it showed me is that it sounds like Tracy is very.

1084
02:08:28.470 --> 02:08:35.850
Erica Moore: she's really spent a lot of time educating herself about the homeless issue, because it is very layered, this is not something that's just a one size fits all and.

1085
02:08:37.110 --> 02:08:41.580
Erica Moore: I don't know if she has all the answers or not, but I just think that that was really helpful for us to be able to hear.

1086
02:08:42.330 --> 02:08:52.920
Erica Moore: Some of her thoughts and ideas, and I think I would have appreciated having the opportunity to actually ask for direct questions and i'm not sure why I mean I can understand, maybe why you guys formatted it the way you did.

1087
02:08:53.400 --> 02:08:58.800
Erica Moore: But i'm just throwing that out there that, for me, I would have I would have preferred to speak voice voice to ask a question.

1088
02:08:59.610 --> 02:09:09.780
Erica Moore: And then just In closing, I just wanted to remind everybody to actually listen to what people say because sometimes when I hear people making comments and I probably do this, too.

1089
02:09:10.230 --> 02:09:17.160
Erica Moore: Is they make comments that it's not addressing what people are saying it's saying something completely different it's kind of weird I don't know anyways.

1090
02:09:17.490 --> 02:09:18.240
frank murphy: Have a great night.

1091
02:09:18.300 --> 02:09:19.650

1096
02:09:39.150 --> 02:09:41.820
frank murphy: I wasn't checking the list okay.

1097
02:09:42.270 --> 02:09:44.910
Vicki Halliday: um that wraps it up i'd like to say one thing.

1098
02:09:45.570 --> 02:09:49.890
Vicki Halliday: Okay, in 2016.

1099
02:09:51.090 --> 02:09:56.340
Vicki Halliday: There is a Community benefits agreement, written by then homelessness committee.

1100
02:09:57.480 --> 02:10:00.300
Vicki Halliday: It was submitted to the dnc it was passed.

1101
02:10:00.390 --> 02:10:03.030
Vicki Halliday: It was sent under the city regarding branch housing.

1102
02:10:03.810 --> 02:10:17.190
Vicki Halliday: I don't know why nobody brings up the fact that we have CBS in some cases, why do we want to write new ones, when we can go back and refer to the ones that were submitted years ago.

1103
02:10:18.810 --> 02:10:21.240
Vicki Halliday: On the same topic then that's all.

1104
02:10:24.750 --> 02:10:29.400
Brian U: totally agree, but we have no leverage to make them respond what we've.

1105
02:10:29.430 --> 02:10:30.090
Brian U: been doing.

1106
02:10:30.930 --> 02:10:31.800
Vicki Halliday: what's the new one.

1107
02:10:32.580 --> 02:10:42.690
Brian U: Exactly unless the city is going to come and respond that's why, if Tracy when she said she would Aaron wins we haven't heard, but we put these motions out and they fall into the dark hole.

1108
02:10:42.960 --> 02:10:51.210
Vicki Halliday: Well, I know, but why don't we pull out to see BA from 2016 and say hey you didn't meet one of these now one.

1109
02:10:53.070 --> 02:10:54.210
Brian U: Exactly what we should do.

1110
02:10:54.540 --> 02:10:56.610
frank murphy: Okay yeah I agree.

1111
02:10:56.940 --> 02:11:01.500
Brian U: Okay, and and and the other hundred motions this committee put forth.

02:11:02.580 --> 02:11:05.310
frank murphy: that's never been responded yeah.

1113
02:11:06.120 --> 02:11:22.530
Jody Mortimer: was a person that they go away that, as a follow up person so when these emotions do get approved by the dnc you know is that may be a collaborative duty of something of one of the members of the board with their specific job would be to follow up.

1114
02:11:23.160 --> 02:11:26.130
Vicki Halliday: would be the committee six months yep all.

1115
02:11:27.630 --> 02:11:29.700

1118
02:11:39.210 --> 02:11:42.750
