Here ' s my abuser, David Murdoch, that has not been held responsible for serious residential abuse to me. Right here ' s your close friend Zach, Ruben Badeo. George Floyding, the kid that reported domestic abuse.I ' m informed you worked with Sandwich Badeo when you worked at or hired him at the Santa Cruz Police Department.

To check out and review every one of the essential concerns'in the COVID age, legal issues, health problems. And I understand that, it ' s crucial that they ' d be citizen-led. There wouldn ' t be a need for a pricey consulting firm to organize it. I assume, the region perhaps might give rooms, safe spaces and guidance relating to civil discussion. I recognize it may seem not under your province to establish, you know, innovative mentors or something, but I assume it ' s pretty clear to everybody that something ' s wrong with our governing agencies like the CDC and the FDA. There was a congressional hearing the other day at the subcommittee level going over most of these issues.And there are telephone calls all over the world for Nuremberg tests. There ' s simply many, several legal points and I wear ' t insurance claim to be an expert on these problems but I ' ve been following it and it ' s clear that there are, there ' s not agreement in in the scientific community.

I can see from the large size these days ' s schedule that your task is challenging and complex. I expect using my abilities to task available. In evaluating today ' s agenda, I found a couple of products that I would certainly ask the Board to reassess. I ' m not against these things, yet I assume the Board needs to begin trying to find means to make their core spending for solutions of greater demand. I believe we can all concur that tax revenues are not likely to be understood quickly. The only means that we ' re be able to get things done is to find means to make the money that we have more effective and effective. The means to do that is to think about all spending with the understanding that we require to offer the core solutions needed by all our constituents.For instance, Product 7 shows up to be a growth of an existing program. I'' m sure there ' s been a whole lot of cash invested in examining this, but the cash removes from our core services. The 2nd agenda item I discovered'was Product 8. Now that ' s been altered, however that thing was aiming to invest$90,000 for public art work where we have a large variety of artist and perhaps even discover volunteers or pupils of the art, who can provide this at a much reduced price. A lot of the agenda products are moneyed by outside sources and I believe that ' s a fantastic way to do it. Thanks. – Thanks. [silence] Morning, welcome.

One ' s called Revenues of War, Lockheed Martin, and the production of the military-industrial Complex. We have Lockheed Barton below in Santa Cruz County. One more one is the Palestine Research Laboratory, exactly how Israel exports the innovation of line of work around the globe to 130 countries with drone technologies, fireware, facial acknowledgment, et cetera.We ought to be buying the wellbeing of individuals, offering food, not bombs.

I realize it might seem not under your province to establish, you know, revolutionary teachings or something, however I believe it ' s pretty clear to every person that something ' s wrong with our governing companies like the CDC and the FDA. There ' s simply several, lots of legal points and I put on ' t insurance claim to be a professional on these problems yet I ' ve been following it and it ' s clear that there are, there ' s not agreement in in the clinical neighborhood. There isn ' t. You ' re going to have a situation.

Supporting battling professionals in their repatriation right into the private life.Thank you for doing that. I likewise intend to comment on consent schedule thing number 16, modifying the county ' s payments. I ' ve had a little bit even more time to review that and I actually sustain entailing young people in our payments. I am concerned about providing a full-on commissioner area to a 14-year-old. I would a lot instead have a youth payment separate from all payments that these young people would after that have their very own body to be an advisory payment to your board. Within those commissioners, young people commissioners, they would certainly have the possibility to sit as youth consultants at big on any type of and all payments that they so satisfy and pick with you to communicate their comments and sensations pertaining to all issues on the region ' s commission.Number 48 on the authorization agenda that Buprof– Buprenorphine pilot job.

All right, we ' ll close public remark and bring it to the board for remarks especially on the authorization agenda', identifying the 2 products were drawn. Manager Hernandez, we can start with you given that you were remote. Do you have any discuss the approval agenda? [silence] -No remark. -All. Thank you.Supervisor McPherson. -Thank you, Mr. Chair. On item number 30, regarding the huge container water receiver lending demand. I desire to say thanks to the Board for considering this product. And I thank you and the county management policeman and staff for taking a difficult check out exactly how we can aid and further aid the court-appointed receiver in this, on the functional shortfall of a big basin. I felt it was crucial to bring this to the board to bring it to your light of there ' s regarding 550 water clients and over 1500 homeowners. We have a really limited budget situation taking place in the area, I recognize that. In taking on this extremely difficult task of stabilizing the water system, the receiver has actually asked the area for a funding to assist procedures and water supply for the 500 plus links in the 1100 citizens there. The county has devoted one-time financing that was allocated this year to avoid an emergency situation, and our staff has actually secured the state give to address added supply needs. We recognize it ' s a challenging time for the region budget plan as I pointed out, I ' m certain our team will do their finest to see exactly how we could be of additional support and we value the great working connection with our state workplace holders and'the agencies on this issue.Related but not the exact same, is the Stone Creek. Thing number 38, the Rock Creek Water Top Quality Recovery Job. I thank our team again in the county, the divisions who have functioned on this important task for the last pair of years to sustain fire survivors with rebuilding while likewise boosting ecological and economic problems associated with the San Lorenzo Valley Watershed in downtown Stone Creek specifically. We were privileged to receive a federal grant which, might assist with the next actions on preparation and I expect returning to the board to review this additionally in the springtime On product number 50, the 3rd party plan check. I intend to express my admiration to my colleague, Supervisor Koenig for partnering with me on this, the intending personnel for looking into and developing a program, that I hope will certainly be a reliable device in constructing extra housing in Santa Cruz County.I particularly intend to say thanks to the preparation division for consisting of all job strategy submittals into the program and simply not remodels that were initially recommended. I believe this might aid some individuals in the rebuilding procedure and I, I look onward to executing it as quickly as we can.

Thank you.-Thanks. Manager Koenig.-Thank you, chair. On item number 27, I simply intend to give thanks to Emily Burton for volunteering to serve on the Historic Resources Commission for District 1. It has been discussed numerous times at this board. Commissioners and our commissions are an important part of our democracy. On item 50, the third-party plan check program. I additionally wish to say thanks to the Neighborhood Advancement and Infrastructure Department for their comprehensive record and proposal on exactly how to apply this program.

Whenever I ' m out in the public, I become aware of the obstacles of getting anything integrated in our community. And 9 break of 10 these are household jobs therefore I think that this program which concentrates on brand-new residential projects and residential remodels will bring a whole lot of advantages. The preparation division faces most of the same working with difficulties that all of our'companies and various other area departments face.In fact, we ' re presently employing for a brand-new chief constructing official. This actually has created a paradox, where we wear ' t have adequate real estate, so we can ' t work with brand-new organizers and are limited in our capability to authorize more real estate. The wish for this program is that it will certainly enable homeowner to bring extra strategy inspect sources to the table to appear this trap. The charge study part of this thing, you understand, was initially, I think everyone can agree that if you are spending for a third party plan check solutions and bringing some matter resources to'the table on your own, that there should be some cost reduction element. The program is important enough though, to move forward. It ' ll be a lot time-saving capacity here, that I have actually spoken with lots of individuals who will certainly move onward without the cost decrease element. And so, by enabling a little of extra time for the planning division to study specifically, just how much each portion of our process costs? It will allow them to create a clear decreased charge element to this program.I appearance ahead to seeing that carried out later on following year. One final note, I additionally intend to give thanks to the Neighborhood Growth and Facilities Division on product 55, the update on container-based hygiene. I desire to thank them for creating this lease agreement with Give Love to develop container-based, a container-based hygiene pilot task. This pilot item will give vital information on the safety and security and efficiency of composting bathrooms. It will also develop a possible choice that could be scaled up in the face of a large-scale calamity that obtains our hygiene infrastructure. Thanks to the division for that. – Thanks, Manager Koenig. Manager Cummings.-Thanks, Chair. Yeah, I ' d like to start by taking an action at Product number 22, which is the annexation of the Davenport Hygiene District. This thing is going to truly help us progress as we ' re, making enhancements to our infrastructure on the North Coastline. We ' re mosting likely to be wanting to install some washrooms as we improve our vehicle parking lots therefore this is mosting likely to aid us as we progress with that.In addition to that, I just had one comment on the third-party strategy check. I'would simply such as to see if we can include that the Board got record on the program in a year, simply to see how well that is helping people relocate along with you recognize, more effective plan checks and approvals. [silence] -Thank you. I just have one quick talk about Thing 52, which is in regard to the trip rental update. It was type of disappointing upgrade for the lack of info that it had. I comprehend that, that we simply hired some personnel in relation to the enforcement side however, you understand, it ' s mored than a year considering that the preliminary enforcement letters headed out. It ' d served to have some info about, what were those enforcement letters for? What ' s the status of them? What ' s the timeline we anticipate on them? This was something the Board had focused on to the factor where we ' re making use of several of our TOT money to money one of those positions.So, I ' m sure I share the board ' s better rate of interest that the March report when it'returns, be considerably much more robust in this record that concerned us in this time since this really didn ' t provide much of the info for something that ' s a Board top priority. That is all my talk about the permission program. Exists a movement for permission with the additional direction? [silence] -Second.-So there ' s a movement

from Manager Koenig and a second from Supervisor Cummings, with the extra direction on item -Uh, 50.-50?-50, yeah. -Okay. We require to do a roll telephone call, please. If we can have a roll call'vote.-Supervisor Koenig?-Aye.-Cummings?-Aye.-Hernandez?-Aye. -McPherson?-Aye.-And Close friend?- Aye. And that passes unanimously with the additional instructions. We ' ll action on to the products, the initial 2 products that were pulled from the consent schedule. Manager Cummings, you had actually drawn Thing 26 initially, which is, I ' ll read it into the records considering that currently it ' s in a normal schedule item. To route the Marijuana licensing office to prepare an ordinance amending area code provisions worrying cannabis limits for commercial marijuana cultivation.To direct the cannabis licensing office to advise changes to the Region Code associated to marijuana incentives, increased square footage of well-known greenhouses for growing, retail sales and intake at the factor of growing, and facility of onsite usage lounges at cannabis retail locations, and take relevant actions as advised by Manager Koenig and Hernandez. We have the Board memorandum and the very first quarter record from in 2014. Manager Cummings. [silence]

-Yeah, thank you, Chair. I simply desire to begin by claiming that I ' m helpful in idea of of what ' s being suggested here. As a city council participant back before the pandemic started, I had actually begun dealing with second permission of few of these issues connected to marijuana in the city. I believe one of things that I discovered worry about was just the truth as a new manager, there ' s a great deal of changes to code and it didn ' t appear … I had a difficult time really attempting to understand what was happening, type of why? With the, you know, enhance in can– the 2% marijuana incentive. Just how do we arrive? Existed outreach? Since among things that we … What ' s actually concerning when we were working in the city as it pertaining to on 2nd intake was, how ' s the area going to react when we make this major change to cannabis policy and actually the demand to do enough outreach. And so, after checking out the board letter, I reached out to the sheriff to see if there ' d been any

appointment and he claimed, that he had simply kind of discovered out concerning it. And I consulted with some retailers that expressed some problem. Therefore for me, while I ' m helpful of this, I think, what will certainly be great is that if we had the county team operating in conjunction with some area stakeholders that might have some worry about this, and have something come back to us later in the year.I composed some language but really wished to make certain that, as we ' re relocating onward with some really substantial modifications to cannabis policy, that there ' s a lot of community engagement to ensure that the neighborhood gets on board when these adjustments start'coming to be executed. [silence]-I was, if I may, I was going to pull the thing however you pulled the item. I have comparable … This is the biggest suggested adjustment to our growing and dispensing regulation considering that its beginning and it was a permission item which appears extremely inappropriate.So I, I, I agree, considering the background of this product, the hundreds upon numerous hours of discussion we had. We had actually produced our very own payment, you understand, that had both farmers and community members in order to try and land on a place. I was attempting to figure out what neighborhood issue we were trying to resolve versus what details sub-industry issue we were trying to settle. They ' re not always the very same thing and I think that, that we need to look much more broadly on community-related effects than just an industry-related effect. I was just merely gon na vote no on this product originally.It depends upon what you ' re recommending to do, because as we saw that the, the bulk of the effects actually on the farming side are within my area and Supervisor Hernandez ' s area.

I was gon na ask. I will certainly ask Manager Hernandez what outreach you did to the neighborhood in relation to this because there was a whole lot of outreach from the 4th area and the second area on farming immediately preceding you pertaining to the board. Well, did you have a chance to meet neighborhood groups or community organizations or anyone connected with this in advancement of the product? [silence]-In terms of neighborhood groups, we didn ' t have any, any individuals that we had reached out to that had concerns, but we did get to out to the market, naturally, to discuss a few of their worries also.

[ pause] Within the city limits is we ' ve previously had issues within city limits, however outdoors city limitations, I haven ' t had any kind of outreach, Anybody connect to me or with worries, really. – Okay. I indicate, it would ' ve required proactive because the rest, all of us learned about this on Thursday mid-day, right? So, I indicate, I assume it ' s really tough for the area to expect to have engagement within 72 hours of a huge policy change.So I think it ' s incumbent upon those that are bringing onward type of extensive line use modifications and traditionally controversial concerns to actually do that community outreach. I indicate, so I, I ' d be, I, I ' d like to also speak with Supervisor Koenig due to the fact that I imply, it was your item, both of your item and I ' m interested to hear what the suggested language modification is. Manager Koening?-Thank you, Chair. Of all, I ' d like to aim out that no statute adjustments are being suggested today.Simply an idea that we look at some ordinance adjustments in the future and we ' ve divided those out right into short-term modifications and more long-lasting changes. The temporary adjustments, which think about removing the type of co-location scheme that had been produced which ' s actually where we enabled a somewhat higher density of farming where even more than one licensee was located And what we saw was that companies type of created or entrepreneurs created numerous businesses.And to satisfy those co-location requirements or there was partnership. And so, those … there are several existing sites where there ' s several licenses cultivating marijuana today. Ultimately that creates a relatively intricate licensing structure, in order to reach actually quite modest cover limitations. And so, this is just one method, a really little means that we can help folks that have actually been cultivating, who remain in excellent standing with law enforcement, with our cannabis licensing workplace, paying all their fees to simply decrease the worry a very little quantity on them. And so, the objective would be to do that prior to the-the following expanding period. The other modifications recommended, you recognize, in terms of on the farming side, enabling rewards for farmers in great standing. Right here again,'the objective is really to promote growing websites where there are not clash neighbors. This in fact incentivizes the excellent stars in our community and for that reason, makes it much more difficult for folks that are at probabilities with their next-door neighbors

, who are, you understand, in problem with county regulations.So, it ' s actually, incentivizing excellent actions. And afterwards, as for motivating or allowing a bit smaller sized websites to use the entire greenhouse space for farming. So, I have actually done a number of sightseeing tour to comprehend exactly how these greenhouse growing websites can or could influence their surrounding residents. I have to state greenhouses, we control them highly. You can … um, whether it ' s putting in some kind of air filtering system to remove scent. Greenhouses actually have a few of the least effect on neighbors as feasible. Since they ' re entirely regulated setting. And so, here once again, this is really just a small change that would permit a little bit extra adaptability and how this crop is cultivated.And then to the various other 2 points, um … And once again, all of these are simply what we ' re requesting a suggested statute via the job of the Cannabis Licensing Office, County Council, and various other appropriate team including the sheriff ' s workplace. We we ' re primarily, well, firstly, we ' re recommending a ranch tour program. The twin engines of Santa Cruz County ' s economic climate are tourist and agriculture.In fact, in our sustainability upgrade, which we circulated this time in 2014, we made a variety of changes to our general strategy in order to additional urge Agri-tourism, whether that ' s allowing wedding celebrations on country sites or even more adaptability around farm stands. We acknowledge with every various other crop that this is a vital part of Santa Cruz ' s economic situation. A way that we can have an affordable advantage and permitting ranch scenic tours of cannabis websites will, also play to our staminas there. I have to'say I ' ve heard regarding some actually compelling tales from growers about the method that they are approaching growing, whether it ' s the regenerative agricultural techniques being utilized without pesticides and without tilling the dirt of some sites in South Region or in the San Lorenzo Valley.Efforts to'protect heritage varietals of marijuana that have a number of different medical buildings. I truly think that permitting this a little much more adaptability right here will really aid our industry come to be well, even more Santa Cruz-y in a manner. A lot more value-based and ultimately a lot more dynamic. And in many means, the exact same thing holds true of allowing consumption lounges or on-site consumption at factors of retail. This would really permit instructional chances and even more cultural involvement, around around retail, as opposed to kind of the gasoline station, drive via, high-THC material kind of, sector that we see today.So, once more, I think that eventually these changes are methods to support the industry in such a way that will much better personify the worths of our neighborhood. -Thanks. I ' ll simply say, it ' s a bit of a distinction without a distinction when you ' re guiding an office to prepare a regulation and you essentially tell them the language and the goals of what will certainly remain in it, versus saying we ' re not adopting something today. I indicate,'I recognize we ' re not since we can ' t. I imply, I have a thing that was additionally drawn that does the exact same thing yet the intent is-is to compose a regulation in an extremely specific framework.And I obtained– I indicate, I just seem like there ' s a lot of people in Corralitos [], there ' s a great deal of people in La Salva that would take umbrage to this product and the significant shifts that we ' re recommending. I mean, this is your– your … Possibly we have a distinction of exactly how we specify minor when it ' s literally doubling cultivation cover limits in certain locations and that ' s pretty significant to me. And we ' ve had rather substantial conversations in this board and in the community for years, over attempting to arrive at a location that met everybody ' s requires and-and I understand that that it was imperfect and it ' ll remain to be imperfect, but this is a pretty major modification in my point of view. And so, that ' s why I can ' t, why I mean, I wear ' t understand what ' s going t'be counter-proposed but I can ' t support it in its existing'framework. Supervisor McPherson, do you have anything to add on this item?-Yeah, although it ' s feasible that I can support a few of the language, land use adjustments that are proposed, and yet for giving more in-depth info on'the impacts, I do wish to differ with the intake of Cannabis at the real farms.I have ordered for dozens of policies and programs that sustain the Cannabis and tourist market that are connected for many years, but I truly can ' t assistance this one. It ' s been stood for below as comparable to red wine tasting, however it ' s not the exact same in my mind. Actually, we have lawful thresholds and criteria that control how much alcohol an individual can take in and securely drive. Those criteria can be a force if you drink as well much, but we really wear ' t have the enforceable'disability standards pertaining to the usage of Marijuana and that troubles me. Consuming Marijuana at a farm certainly result to some driving and no issue just how we attempt to restrict it, and I ' m worried about is a public security issue. -Okay. Thanks. Supervisor Cummings, you intend to perhaps review your language and we require to open it up for'the community for commentary on yet they ought to recognize what ' s additionally being counter-proposed. -Thanks, Chair. I just desire to say thanks to everyone for their remarks and feedback on this thing. I think the language I ' m going to propose may aid to bring us to a location where we can consider some of what has been recommended today.But within the context of the reality that there requires to be more outreach done and it indicates if we ' re ging to relocate in

this kind of instructions there requires to be even more details on what ' s being altered So, the language I ' m suggesting would route the Marijuana licensing workplace'functioning in conjunction with stakeholders to recommend a recommendations for updates to policies connected to the sale, intake, and cultivation of Cannabis to the Board of Supervisors, on or before the 2nd conference in June 2024. That would certainly include yet are not limited to changes right into cover limitations, raises to cannabis farming area and greenhouses, minimal retail sales of marijuana products expanded and produced by farming licensees at the factor of growing, medical, academic, and recreational options for on-site consumption lounges, on-site usage pilot program, changes to co-location alternatives for non-retail commercial marijuana. And, you recognize, a whole lot of this was kind of drawn from what was written in the schedule report and after that what was kind of detailed in the the add-on.

I mean, so I, I ' d be, I, I ' d like to additionally listen to from Manager Koenig since I suggest, it was your thing, the 2 of your thing and I ' m interested to hear what the proposed language alteration is. We we ' re essentially, well, initially of all, we ' re suggesting a farm excursion program. I ' ll simply claim, it ' s a little bit of a distinction without a difference when you ' re routing a workplace to draft an ordinance and you essentially tell them the language and the goals of what will be in it, versus stating we ' re not embracing something today. I suggest,'I recognize we ' re not because we can ' t. I imply, I have a thing that was also pulled that does the same thing but the intention is-is to draft a regulation in an extremely details framework.And I obtained– I imply, I simply feel like there ' s a whole lot of individuals in Corralitos [And we ' ve had quite comprehensive discussions in this board and in the area for years, over attempting to land on an area that fulfilled everyone ' s needs and-and I know that that it was imperfect and it ' ll continue to be incomplete, yet this is a pretty major modification in my viewpoint.I have a decommissioned summertime camp in San Lorenzo Valley, that is already established up with the entire infrastructure for this kind of point, for hosting folks.And I just desire to claim, as far as the driving, what we ' re already pondering for bringing in tourist and we ' ve currently got to out to folks like Brookdale Lodge, where they might remain at the lodge and we ' d in fact have a tour bus or van, really drive them to the home to stay clear of the driving situation. I don ' t understand if there has been, possibly some of these professionals right here might allow me know, however I put on ' t know if there ' s been enough research done on cross-pollination between, allow ' s say, wineries and pot. No one suches as seeing all the homeless individuals running around shooting up fentanyl, and that ' s simply going to continue if there ' s not practical businesses to offer these youth work and get them off the streets and that ' s part of the, you know, the community benefit we provide is simply tasks, excellent jobs, well-paying jobs.I really appreciate everybody ' s sustain.

I possess a decommissioned summer season camp in San Lorenzo Valley, that is currently established up with the entire facilities for this kind of thing, for organizing folks.And I simply want to say, as far as the driving, what we ' re currently considering for bringing in tourism and we ' ve already reached out to people like Brookdale Lodge, where they can stay at the lodge and we ' d in fact have a scenic tour bus or van, actually drive them to the residential or commercial property to avoid the driving situation. I don ' t recognize if there has been, possibly some of these professionals here might let me understand, however I put on ' t understand if there ' s been sufficient research done on cross-pollination between, allow ' s say, wineries and pot. And what we ' ve seen currently is that, those regulations that didn ' t job back after that definitely wear ' t job currently. Where we can make this job and there ' s extremely few of us left and we ' re right here claiming, pleading you for just tiny changes to make this job. No one suches as seeing all the homeless individuals running around shooting up fentanyl, and that ' s simply going to proceed if there ' s not sensible companies to use these young people jobs and obtain them off the streets and that ' s part of the, you know, the area advantage we supply is simply work, fantastic work, well-paying jobs.I truly appreciate everybody ' s sustain.So even on a hundred-acre parcel, you'' re limited to three acres of cultivation. I assume that is pretty modest eventually and actually as it'' s been stated, that sort of very first component is just …

That, that would certainly come back earlier. It'' s just looking at methods to eliminate some of the management burden that the current regulative plan develops. And this was one component that, since efficiently, we'' re ruling out higher impacts than a lot of existing in our existing regulations already attend to under a certain system. My understanding is that it would not, that specific section is not called for to be reviewed under CEQA, whereas certainly, the other stuff that would come back later would be. Is that right, County Council? [silence] – Any kind of activity that the board takes pertaining to, a discretionary nature of this kind is going to need to be evaluated under CEQA. The question is as soon as it goes to environmental assessment, whether there'' s an actual ecological impact.So I, so–

so we do have to do a first testimonial to figure out whether or not CEQA would apply and depending upon whether there was, either an EIR and an adverse affirmation or an alleviated adverse affirmation would use. – Okay. Got it. What? That'' s type of the reasoning. If, you recognize, interested to listen to any tips or problems you have, Manager Cummings. – Supervisor Cummings, is there an alternative motion or discuss the movement? [silence] – Yeah, I'' ll simply make a few remarks and intend to give thanks to everyone today who came out and spoke on this. Once again, I'' m someone who ' s constantly been very encouraging of cannabis and the Cannabis market yet my huge issue is, how can we align it with the worths of our neighborhood. Just how can we make individuals really feel comfortable with the industry as it proceeds to present in a lawful method throughout the state of California? I think that one of the points that we listened to from some of the cultivators and we'' ve heard from some individuals who are here today that live near sites is that, for some of the individuals who live near these sites, this is the very first time they'' re hearing concerning this? And for some of the cultivators, they'' re like, “We have good relationships with our next-door neighbors.”” Therefore I see this as an excellent possibility for cultivators, possibly Manager Koenig, you and Supervisor Hernandez, to have some community conferences with those individuals that have actually remained in good standing with their neighbors.To obtain input from them, to see how they would certainly really feel regarding these changes since maybe that they are extremely helpful of this. Nevertheless, if we relocate in this direction today, I really feel like a whole lot of people are gon na seem like they ' re captured off-guard and that we sanctuary ' t been transparent in exactly how we brought this onward. And that ' s why with the suggestions I ' m recommending, and I would certainly also see if you all will certainly want getting on, as was raised a job force but instead a subcommittee so you can function in tandem with personnel and stakeholders so that everybody really feels like they ' ve been offered the table with all the proposals that are being made.That ' s part of why I ' m recommending these various other suggestions since having actually serviced this,'I'understand that a lot of individuals if they seem like they ' re obtaining caught unsuspecting and they weren ' t brought into the discussion before these things have been suggested. They ' re going to seem like they can ' t trust fund our city government therefore, I wish to'make certain that as we ' re sort of, suggesting a few of these major modifications that we ' re doing so, as though people really feel certain in our city government. [silence]-Are you presenting an alternate movement?-Yes. So, I ' ll present an alternating motion. Direct the Marijuana licensing workplace, collaborating with stakeholders to discover updates to plans associated to the sale, usage, and cultivation of cannabis. And go back to the Board of Supervisors on or prior to the 2nd conference in June 2024 to report back on topics that include but are not restricted to changes to cover limits, raises to cannabis farming location and greenhouses, minimal retail sale of marijuana products grown and created by cultivation licensees at the point of cultivation, medicinal, academic, and recreational alternatives for on onsite usage, onsite usage pilot program, and changes to co-location alternatives for non-retail industrial cannabis.Background discussion]-We have an alternating movement. Exists a 2nd to that? [background conversation] I ' ll second it, really. And this is in part why I ' m not supportive of the entire proposition. There ' s made use of language explore'and I intend to make it clear that the intent of the board if this is your intent, is that this doesn ' t mean that these'are necessarily going to return as referrals. I assume this has actually been a factor of opinion that we ' ve had historically where something is deemed instructions that actually isn ' t. So, if something comes back and perhaps that'they put on ' t recommend the onsite usage, a concern of Manager McPherson. Tthey put on ' t necessarily suggest, this is an expedition process. If we ' re in the exploration process, I can elect for it. , if the board ' s intent is that we ' re still routing as was the initial point and I ' m not comfy with it.. Is'that the intent of the activity? [mic rustling]- Yes. I, I do desire to ensure that ' s clarified., When I ' m discussing check out, that means, you understand, we ' re expecting that there ' s mosting likely to be community outreach done to gain, to'recognize where the community remains on these problems.-Sure.-And when this returns to us, if there ' s community support or there ' s not neighborhood opposition to some of what ' s being recommended, after that we can progress keeping that. It ' s not to bring back ordinances currently. It ' s truly for, you know, the interested board members to do community outreach, to engage'with the community, to engage with the industry and to find out, you know, are these things that we ' re comfy with moving on. You recognize, I saw for example, you recognize, the 2%cover bonus. I put on ' t know exactly how 2%was chosen as a number, however it could be that you know, the neighborhood fits with something higher than that or that it depends on just how those cultivators have actually acted in the past, whether they can obtain the maximum 2% or possibly they can get 1%. I assume that Manager McPherson ' s point, you know, if we ' re mosting likely to, people are speaking about onsite usage. Does that mean, as was discussed in the target market that a van could be utilized to move people in? Perhaps the constable ' s department will certainly be all right keeping that. Perhaps the neighborhood would certainly be okay.So I assume that ' s when I state exploration and check out, I actually desire to, you know, see if team can dive into these

subjects, involve with the community, and you recognize, inform us what they ' ve been hearing and, you understand, if there ' s a chance for us to move on with ordinances, we can move on after we obtain that update. -Thanks. Any added'discussion on the thing? -Yeah. I. to start with, I ' m mosting likely to claim to the Marijuana industry of Santa Cruz Area, thank you for your persistence over the years.And it was years, for which you ' ve done and to try to function something out here. I will certainly accompany this motion but I think my problems.

When this comes back, I don ' t understand how they can be properly addressed however we ' ll see. And I anticipate having that component of the conversation as you pointed out. [silence]-Okay. We have an alternative activity, so we ' ll ballot on the alternating movement if we have a roll call, please.-Manager Koenig?-Aye. -Cummings?- Aye. – Hernandez?-Aye.- McPherson and Pal? -Aye. That passes all. Many thanks for aiding work throurgh it.

Appreciate your [inaudible] – Could we obtain information? So, is board going to be like, reenact the, like 3C committee or? Is that what we ' re discussing? [silence] -I would certainly state that if, if that ' s an extra motion that you want we might do that.-No. I'' m simply claiming is, it ' s mosting likely to be staff-directed?-What? Your activity? Okay. All right.-So these committees, these meetings, and stuff, it

' s gon na be staff-directed?-Yes.-Okay. – And with stakeholders and [inaudible] -I would encourage however, Board Members to go to or the Board Participants that, you know, brought this ahead to attend those conferences. They can understand where the area is at and partake in those conferences. [silence]-Okay, thank you. We ' ll carry on to Thing 20, excuse me, not 20. Well, the drawn Product 28. Which I ' ll reviewed now is Product 6.2, which is guides the area growth division infrastructure division to draft a low-impact camping regulation and take relevant actions as recommended by myself. We have the board memorandum and the draft language. This was drawn by Manager Cummings. Manager Cummings.-Yes. Thank you, Chair. And I just intend to express my support for enhancing and developing more affordable and low-impact camping alternatives within our neighborhood. As I was checking out through it and I was diving deeper into it. I did begin seeing some issues as it associated to experiencing the appendix and, you understand, what areas would be thought about under this ordinance.And a few of the concerns associated with like the number of outdoors tents and kinds of lorries that can be there. As some may understand yet our area ' s been functioning with getting a transfer of Greyhound Rock from The Golden State Department

of Fish and Wildlife, to the area for the purposes of creating low barrier, , inexpensive holiday accommodation that would suit institution teams and, you recognize, various other kinds of teams in the area. And as I read via the language in this, based on the density and the variety of outdoors tents per acre, that job would likely not be really practical, due to the fact that it would limit the number of sites that, or the variety of camping options and structures that might be on that residential property therefore, that showed up for me as a concern.And then, just really wishing to comprehend even more regarding the household properties, like just how we ' re gon na handle TOT. I recognize you discussed earlier that we ' ve been having some issues with Airbnbs. Therefore, just actually trying to recognize exactly how, you know, what possible incessant effects there may be.-Thanks. 2 superb questions. The statute, the proposal'to … as composed does not consider public land, particularly area land. That was something that has been brought up, but I think that we might go over regarding whether we wan na extend it, the Senate costs that we really elected in support of particular for public lands. And as we might give added direction to, in this activity if you want to ponder something different ahead back especially for county-owned parks or lands or whatever it might be.This is for exclusive lands in significance. Beyond the country and metropolitan solutions zone. It ' s absolutely not below to prevent what you ' re attempting to do up in the North Shore. In concerns to the TOT side, it requires comparable to and it referrals a holiday rental ordinance that one would need, be called for to obtain a getaway rental certificate or a TOT certificate. And or utilize a driver that currently makes the collection, which is the optimal scenario. Due to the fact that they ' re accumulating the tax for us, we put on ' t actually have any type of troubles with those that are on Airbnb as a platform. Something that needed litigate or a danger of litigation early on in order to do. We was among the very first neighborhoods in the country that really established them collecting the money. So I think that I ' m less concerned concerning that.These statute, there are some, as we saw on'a number of letters that are already existing under our existing outdoor camping ordinance. I assume that, that the current camping statute, which is 744 isn ' t actually, is vague sufficient to permit it, however not clear adequate to, in my opinion be as official as what we ' re suggesting here. So if you have an additional suggestion, I ' m completely, I imply, completely available to it regarding, making sure that that doesn ' t prevent any type of kind of public land constraints. Whatever language you wish to offer is direction on that particular. And I don ' t have the problems due to the fact that you ' re required to get the TOT certificate.So if you have any kind of tips prior to we …-Yeah. So I, I guess, yeah, if we'might include language around averting public lands. I assume that would certainly work.'I likewise, think it would certainly be excellent to include language around as opposed to simply routing community advancement and facilities department. Consisting of the Parks Department and various other potential stakeholders due to the fact that I think that, you'recognize, there ' s some proviron [

?] and save the Redwoods. If they ' re doing anything on their residential or commercial properties that might be comparable to this, and I wear ' t know. – No, That ' s why there ' s support.I mean, you probably discovered that wheter we have a type of considerable support from all those organizations therefore. Due to the fact that they might come back as component of the regulation with details language around public land, I assume adding the Parks makes a great deal of sense. It would certainly be actually helpful. I was'simply attempting to make it slim to begin. Yet I hadn ' t thought of your details scenario to Greyhound.So, I value you bringing that forward.

I assume that we can include additional language to additionally include the parks department and the entertainment for the regulation if you ' re comfy with that. Are there any other comments from board participants? Please, Manager Keonig. -One inquiry. I imply, to start with, I do intend to value the chair for bringing this ahead. I ' ve utilized a number of hip [

?] camps. I assume that ' s essentially what we ' re speaking about right here. When taking a trip, and they are truly a magnificent alternative. And I think there ' ll be a wonderful advantage to, broaden usage of them within our community naturally, with practical regulation. The huge concern is hygiene, I assume, I couldn ' t quite inform what the … if there was any type of content [] suggestion within this first direction just how to address sanitation. Clearly, we have some rather restrictive needs. As for, you know, progressed septic tanks within our community. I suggest, actually, I ' m not exactly sure if area council can give any details on this. Would certainly a camping site by meaning fall under similar demands under of State legislation for a few of these, you recognize, septic tanks and innovative therapy systems?-The short solution is I don ' t, I wear ' t understand the answer.We we ' ll be looking right into that and a variety of various other issues. If presuming the Board provides staff direction, this is additionally going to involve some degree of environmental evaluation. Our environmental analysis is mosting likely to be done by the organizer therefore it ' s all component of that procedure.- Okay, terrific. I suggest, I wish that they don ' t since that would absolutely be a guaranteed means to'exterminate'this program totally [giggling] -All. In our contemplation and various other neighborhoods throughout the state hasn ' t needed it. I indicate, it would certainly need you to have some type of center go to that a mobile washroom or making use of an existing facility on site however not the production or building of any type of brand-new center. By definition, it ' s a de minimis task. This is very reduced impact necessarily in this regard. Manager Cummings. – I had one various other inquiry associated to kind of the variety of camping tents per area.I mean, it has two camping tents per acre and I ' m simply seeing that as being, you understand, extremely … I imply, I presume I comprehend like reduced strength, what that appears like it might be a little too reduced.-It follows the state interpretation of what low effect outdoor camping is, which is no even more than 9 per area. And so, under the state regulation, well, I should state under the suggested state legislation, that Mike is, Senator McGuire is proposing. It would maximize, it would certainly have

a maximum of nine. I'likewise assume by the method, I concur it ' s low yet I also assume that it ' s vital that if this is reduced influence camping, that we … That that ' s what the interpretation is. This is not meant to have any type of kind of environmental influence. This is not supposed to have any kind of kind of community-based impact. You have, this is simply a chance and across the country as Manager Koenig notification, evidently you ' ve specified several of these. It ' s typically used by farms or vineyards as a means to reinvest cash back into stewardship or land depend on to reinvest the money back right into it.So they use it as an academic. It ' s interesting to discuss agritourism in the sense of cannabis. I believe this is [laughter], this is a little maybe less, debatable on that particular consider as far as people doing it in this space. And I think that this, from a reduced effect camp factor, that that ' s what the nine, where the 9 originated from. And that ' s a 9 optimum. I suggest, you still have to have a five-acre minimum.

And a lot of these camping sites are dramatically actually less than that.- If I might just adhere to up, I think it ' s nine, it ' s 9 sites, I believe.-9 total campgrounds per home. -Right. -The thickness of one campground per acre. -Right. And 2 tents per website. So, two tenths per acre that is just how. -All right, right. -That ' s what I ' m just stating. If there ' s, like. I mean, we have an opportunity to, you recognize, not necessarily limit it to two. So I mean, if it ' s. If there ' s a manner in which we can, you know', team if they intend to explore whether, you recognize, 2, four, I indicate, I ' m just thinking about, you understand, it ' s detailed in here around having households appear and having two camping tents might not suit a low-income families size, you know,'and so simply thinking regarding whether or not the tents per acre can be further explored.-Chair, could I aid with this possibly. Stephanie Hanssen', Assistant Director, CDI. Thanks to the Chair and his staff for supplying such an already established regulation. That ' s really practical.'This is not our only alternative for visitor accommodations and camping. This is just adding to the menu that ' s already allowed the code.So, I simply wanted to supply that there ' s already a code for different sort of site visitor holiday accommodations depending upon what zoning district you are that allows, you recognize, a much type of a larger center. So, I thought that could be valuable that this is not the only alternative around.-Thank you. I appreciate that. I simply, I ' m truly discussing this because as someone who cares concerning low-income people having accessibility and this is a low-income option, simply trying to see just how we can sort of optimize those options for low-income individuals and low-income families.And so, just putting it out there, you know, in terms of just how this is. When team brings something back to us, we really attempt to see if we don ' t need to be restricted to that too and they can bring back choices for us to consider. -I intend because we ' re in the exploratory phase, anything is possible. I imply, I just want to guarantee that we don ' t trigger anything that makes this problematic. I imply, we simply had a considerable discussion regarding neighborhood-based influences. This is expected to be the specific opposite of that. This is intended to be a location where people can explore our natural lands that wear ' t normally have access to it, or individuals'who have neighborhood farms or land trust funds that are having a hard time to make a go of it can additionally make a little quantity of cash And additionally, so'the area can have extra toddler possibilities on it.In significance, you would certainly never ever understand they ' re there, right? By interpretation of a low influence would certainly be. So, I, I hear you. I suggest, we ' re actually on the same web page. I simply put on ' t intend to set off any kind of sort of concern from anyone connected with it. If you would certainly like that as part of the exploration regarding what that would certainly imply and that they effectively make impact yet 9 [] that ' s fine. We can state … I in fact put on ' t even recognize what the language would be. Yet something to keep the reduced effect component of this.

I suggest, the entire factor for me below is to develop a framework that allows the kinds of facilities that Supervisor Koenig, has stated that to exist officially within our community, doesn ' t presently exist.And incidentally, there aren ' t many communities in the state of The golden state that presently have this. I think we can produce a structure that other areas can likewise use, which is rather usual for Santa Cruz County. Develop that model, And assistance notify the state argument on the state degree at that point. If you have a recommendation on that language. I ' m not married to what I propose, that ' s why it pertains to the entire board. This is me informing you it ' s time for language. [giggling]

-Okay. -If you ' ve got it. [silence]-So return with thickness alternatives that would certainly keep reduced influence.- That sounds great. [laughter] Okay -Can I ask the Chair, if I can ask one more inquiry? I mean, I assume that there ' s in fact, you could read the current language in several ways, which is.A website that will enable one camping website per acre but there ' s no genuine clarity around whether those websites could all be clustered'on one acre or have to be essentially one per acre? Right?So if I have a'five-acre site, I ' m allowed 5 campgrounds. But I didn ' t see anything here that claimed, and every one of those websites has to get on, you understand, their own individual acre. I suggest in a method, if we either define that they can be anywhere then it would enable for clustering of websites and more chances around household camping chances that Manager Cummings has actually expressed problem concerning. And I think you would still have', you understand, general of that lower influence that we ' re trying to find.- Superb conversation. Outstanding recommendations.

Again, I'' m someone who ' s constantly been extremely supportive of marijuana and the Marijuana market yet my big problem is, exactly how can we align it with the worths of our community. If the board ' s purpose is that we ' re still guiding as was the first thing and I ' m not comfortable with it.-And when this comes back to us, if there ' s area support or there ' s not community opposition to some of what ' s being suggested, then we can relocate onward with that.-The short answer is I don ' t, I put on ' t know the answer.We we ' ll be looking into that and a number of various other problems. I'likewise think by the way, I agree it ' s reduced yet I likewise think that it ' s important that if this is reduced influence camping, that we … That that ' s what the definition is.It'' ll be extremely quick, yet it ' s the area seven item. I assume she'' s on Zoom.Might be

desiring to make a, I believe she'' s in Zoom given that I don ' t see her in chambers. There'' s anyone else that ' d like to address us on products on the schedule or we only have a disadvantage- functionally, only have a permission program today.

I'' ve been extremely distressed to hear of the extreme therapy of people who are unhoused, where they can'' t park their lorries, particular areas they'' re pulled, they can'' t pay for to have them out there ' s no place to go. And I wear'' t recognize that it ' d really be within our our province to determine what the details expenses on a personal land would be. It'' ll be extremely short, but it ' s the area 7 product. I think she'' s on Zoom.Might be

wanting to make a, I believe she'' s in Zoom because I don ' t see her in chambers.

It is costly to pay for day care And appreciate that we ' re giving an alternative below to truly assist deal with that crucial demand in our neighborhood and raise the next generation. Thanks all. -'Thank you, Supervisor Cummings.-Yeah, in the beginning simply desire to value all the work that this program does to help sustain low-income family members. I do have a bit of a concern that I simply intend to see if I can obtain some comments on which is you know, since we ' re increasing this program, well, there ' s you recognize, preliminary$350,000 investment.The program is expanding. I ' m simply questioning, if there ' s a demand for even more financial resources to help support this program as it expands. And is it something we might intend to think about, you recognize, with our upcoming spending plan? Because, I imply, we desire to see this program remain to succeed and it ' s reaching even more people. If we don ' t provide even more resources to help that growth after that I ' m just worried'that you recognize, we might see some shortages if we wear ' t have, if it ' s not well resourced.-Well, certainly as we did increase that ' s an obstacle that we ' ve been discussing. Just how do we utilize the exact same amount of financing and what … that ' s why we ' ve been taking a look at leveraging if the board did choose to offer extra funding, that would increase our capacity to do even more. However I ' ll accept David, if you desire to include any kind of'even more specifics.-I really appreciate, which is the gratitude expressed by all'the board members and your concern especially. I think as we replied to a similar concern when we'the adjustment accompanied the board of to Grow by 5 is, you understand, I believe everybody [faint], so we require more sources for children and families.I think offered the range of the need, the deficiency of resourceless, I think something … In truth my response last time was we need to, it ' s our [inaudible] it ' s our responsibility. To do due persistance and determine how we can best apply extra resources. And so that was why we involved in a number of the points we ' ve done consisting of the leveraging, that Deputy Director Petersen pointed out. But likewise, that comprehensive fiscal analysis.So I would state, I significantly appreciate the

door being open to the opportunity of ask for extra. I would certainly like us to jointly restore the results of that detailed fiscal evaluation, along with recent referrals that have originated from various bodies in this area around childcare particularly. To construct an affordable referral regarding any added financing in this context.-And I believe it ' ll be fantastic to understand just how additional funding can also be used to leverage, also bring in more funds, since you have actually shown that you were terrific at taking$350,000 and enhancing that to 1.5 million. Therefore if there ' s manner ins which we can remain to utilize funds. I think would certainly be actually handy for our area. Thank you.-Supervisor Hernandez, did you have something you intended to add?- Oh, yeah. I just wished to give thanks to all the department in the Thrive by 5, team as well. I think that this program is a significant property to Area 4 and all our neighborhood there'. So thanks so a lot.-Thank you.

You don ' t ever before look for praise and I simply wish to compliment, how excellent you are at your duty. This is … We ' re very lucky. Santa Cruz Region, we really wager outside of our organizations often with the talent specifically, I ' ll say the area degree and you specifically simply the method that you influenced the information conversation, the method that you affect the plan discussion, the other boards that you and I serve on that particular you never.You take your

Is there any person where the community that I ' d like to address us on this thing? [silence]-Yes, great afternoon.First of all, like to claim there are many individuals I ' m sure that are well-meaning that benefit Health and Person Services, Yet as an influenced parent, I represent numerous family members who have located the Department

of Health and Human Solutions to be untrustworthy.And once more, I ' m seeing a program couched as a benefit yet that is intruding on our 1st and 14th Modification legal rights, which are parental legal rights to the care, guardianship, and control of one ' s own youngsters. And just how I ' ve experienced this is via tyrannical behavior from my college who was pressuring to make'clinical choices for my kid against my own personal dreams. I know that 58,000 children a year are being gotten rid of from their households. So your discussion negates any one of that. The kids aren ' t secure as we ' ve seen in this area by the 2 prominent kidnappings under family … Under the family members court auspices. I ' m seeing clinical breach right into our decision-making and I'oppose it. I oppose even more funding for federal government control of our youngsters. That is a parental right. I ' m invoking my 1st and my 14th Modification right and I put on ' t desire this, due to the fact that I'see it as a motion picture like “The Provider” that my little girl was required to view in institution. And it ' s where people were taking injections each and every single day, they were under complete surveillance. Every little thing was run by the federal government. And I just see this pattern of method arising prior to my eyes. I ' ve took a look at the United Nations Program 2030. That ' s not a conspiracy concept. It ' s posted on their web site. So, to individuals who are

well-meaning, I pity you that you benefit a firm that is factually harming family members. Once more.

Any person else like to resolve us on this product It ' s a non-action item.Welcome.-'Thanks for the record. The only point I have would certainly ask for that the report needs to include metadata of exactly how numerous of those of specific youngsters and babies are people with specials needs. Created component of the issue in our region is households are struggling for aid, particularly those with'intellectual disability and mental wellness. The Regional Center System only deals with programs and services that is intellectual disability just. They do not handle the mental health piece. So here are family battling for help, for support, for [ faint] education and learning. And this needs to be consisted of to the record to make certain there ' s educable, due to the fact that it ' s concerning the requirements of the parents. It ' s regarding lowering trauma with these baby and kids if they wear '

t get sufficient support.The previously the far better. Thank you.-Thanks. [silence] Morning. Welcome.-Greetings. My name is Najeeb Kamil.

And currently she ' s grown-up and I can not obtain reference from Mental Health and wellness Division to refer my daughter to San Andreas Services, which is better suited for my little girl depending upon her medical diagnosis. So what is going on? 10 years I asked Behavioral Health and wellness Division to move my child to'San Andreas to give her

referral, and do not launch that hold that they keep us because they just hypnotized her, they manipulate her, due to the fact that it ' s really simple to control with developmentally impaired. And now she also included Schizoaffective disorder that she never ever had previously. But welcome to Behavioral Health Division, you will obtain a lot even worse diagnosis inherited via them. So, please maintain it in mind and quit that raising of their wages they obtain enough to damage individuals. They need initially to begin doing their responsibility because they don ' t do it.

They just neglect individuals, brutally neglect and it simply needs to be unacceptable.Thank you. -Thanks. Reminder, this is a discussion on the Thrive by 5 campaigns.

I ' ve additionally obtained my C33 Painters Specialist ' s License in 2017 also. I ' ve done many public and private commissions because then. Most notably for the City of Emeryville, for the city of Dublin, California, for artworks downtown in San Rafael.

Without more trouble, let ' s go onto the discussion. [giggling] So, I suggest 11 murals in total for this task. Three of those murals will certainly be situated on the outside of the building to invite children and moms and dads and family members and team member alike right into the Children ' s Situation Facility. The first, all three will certainly be on the front dealing with side of the structure.

-I ' ll just include my gratitude for this program as well As a brand-new parent of a 6 months old, I ' m currently experiencing firsthand simply exactly how difficult it is. I do have a little bit of a concern that I simply desire to see if I can get some comments on which is you recognize, now that we ' re increasing this program, well, there ' s you recognize, first$350,000 investment.The program is increasing. If we put on ' t offer even more resources to aid that growth then I ' m simply worried'that you recognize, we might see some deficiencies if we put on ' t have, if it ' s not well resourced.-Yes, good afternoon.First of all, like to say there are several individuals I ' m sure that are well-meaning that function for Wellness and Human Providers, However as an impacted parent, I represent millions of family participants that have discovered the Division

of Health and Person Providers to be untrustworthy.And when again, I ' m seeing a program couched as an advantage yet that is intruding on our 1st and 14th Amendment legal rights, which are adult rights to the treatment, guardianship, and control of one ' s own children. I ' m currently functioning on a project for Fisherman ' s Wharf in San Francisco, and I lately finished a job, similar in extent to this one for user testing in San Francisco, an exclusive company.It was three tales of an office structure where I painted 15 murals in total for that task.This initial one is on the main entrance and truly envelops the entire vision for the rest of the murals included in the project.You ' ll notice this sort of abstract shape, pattern undergoing all of the structures. Next off, [silence] This piece will certainly be found on the exterior of the two meeting room, also facing the front of the building. All three of these outside murals are referenced from photographs that I took while visiting the redwoods right here in Santa Cruz. Next off. And this one will certainly lie inside the protected patio on the exterior.I assumed this would certainly be a wonderful chance to sort of provide some grain area for household participants and youngsters to kind of simply take a rest. Next. [silence] So, inside each flooring, there ' ll be 4 murals complete on each floor. And these are the locations of the murals. Next, [silence] On the very first floor lobby, you ' ll be welcomed by some queen butterflies. All of the murals inside the structure loss within 3 categories, extremely certain to Santa Cruz Region. And those categories are all concentrated on the environments here. Category one is the redwood forest, group 2 is the shorelines of Santa Cruz, and classification 3 is the ocean off the coast of, of The golden state. Obviously, this one drops under the redwoods. Next off, [silence] Right here, we have a family of Garibaldis, for the initial family room.They have these outstanding blue places when they ' re teens, to make sure that ' s going bo truly enjoyable to repaint, with some kelp due to the fact that we ' re renowned for the kelp woodlands below. Next. And after that an additional iconic species for Santa Cruz. You can ' t go to the shoreline without seeing these brownish pelicans. A family of brown pelicans. Next, And after that, likewise included in the initial flooring is a quiet space where the youngsters can type of have a space to relax and relax and have a silent moment. And the engineers have this amazing concept of having these building aspects embedded and squeezing out from the wall surface. To permit the children to lounge inside the wall, which I thought was best for some kind of artwork to be there. We have, kind of a sundown theme where the kids can literally, lounge inside of a sunset. I thought that was a really lovely concept. Next off. [silence] And that ' s another close-up. Next. Proceeding to the second flooring. This would certainly be the lobby of the second flooring. My favored, directly, my favorite bird in the area. A wonderful blue of heron, surrounded by snowy plovers, which are also native in varieties, indigenous species.They ' re endemic to the California Coast, Bordered by some white sage, which

is recognized for it ' s medicinal functions. Next off. And here are some locations, for the second floor murals in addition to some motifs that explain. Next, And afterwards the multi-purpose day room on the second floor is one of the largest wall surfaces included in the proposal. So, I determined to repaint maybe among the largest creatures on the planet, the humpback whale, And with a little children too. Next. Here we have a California Amphibian, that can be found in the redwoods here. And following. And afterwards the last picture is of some native hermit crabs with some kelp forest behind.

Likewise just to make it inviting for family members and make it a positive experience when they ' re at these centers.And I ' m here if you have any inquiries. [silence]-Thank you for that discussion.

Actually, I got to state that, I was truly excavating what you ' re suggesting below. I suggest, due to the fact that the structure, I indicate, let ' s be honest. The building itself isn ' t the most attractive building in Santa Cruz Area? As we being in plainly the most appealing building. [giggling] Yet we don ' t normally have somebody incorporates the outside and the within by doing this when we get these public art projects.And the manner in which you are able to integrate the two to ensure that you ' re aesthetically welcomed by it. And afterwards to have all the family elements, and the soothing aspects,

and the native components, I think are really … Simply the thought you'brought into it, Joey, is actually, really strong. And I simply appreciated the amount of time and believed you ' ve took into this. I believe this is going to be a special area. Exist any comemnts or questions from my coworkers? Supervisor Koenig.-Thank you, Joey, Great proposal. I really eagerly anticipate seeing you understand it.

And just really am happy for this art work that you ' re mosting likely to bring. We ' ve been seeing a lot art appearing, and each time I see a brand-new mural appear on a building, I ' m just like, yes, newer [] wet walls.And I believe an additional thing that ' s truly terrific about public art is that, you know, we obtain issues of people that, you recognize, they might obtain gang graffiti that takes place. 'in the art world if there ' s a mural, you recognize, you don ' t touch it. Therefore, this is just going to assist'bring even more vibrancy and elegance to our neighborhood and really type of showcase all the wonderful native species in our location. Thank you. – Supervisor Hernandez, did you have something too? [silence]-No, it ' s definitely lovely.

And in the entrance lobby of that structure is a floor-to-ceiling living wall of real-time plants, And there are water features there. And I can not tell you how soothing that is, to have plant material, flooring to ceiling, and appear an effect of water. So, if there is any method to include living wall surfaces in this structure and pondless water, or the sound of water to relax these youngsters and their households. I believe that deserves the money invested. I would certainly likewise like to see on a few of these beautiful murals, the interior ones, some textural points that might be incorporated at kid degree. Bumps on the, the hermit crab or whatever it is something that might truly draw them in and provide them a textural piece of rate of interest to assist link them personally with the subject matter.And I wish that there can be some fish tanks throughout the structure. It is a well-known method of calming the anxious system because that has actually been found that when people view fish swim back and forth. Thank you.-Thank you. Any person else like to address this on the public art? [silence] Early morning. Welcome back.-Hey there. Richard Gallo from Live Oak. I think the art is beautiful and it ' s required, especially inside the building, because it ' s regarding making it welcoming. Among the problems I have is I don ' t feel welcome when I go to the constable ' s department. They are not welcoming whatsoever whatsoever. So, allow ' s really hope that this painting will make it enlightening, extra pleasant, more available to the area, because the sheriff ' s department is not welcoming. Thank you.-Thank you. Exists'anyone else on chambers? Seeing none. Is there anybody online?-No audio speakers online, Chair. -All right.We ' ll bring it back to the board for activity. Supervisor Koenig. -I ' ll move the recommended actions. -We have an activity from Supervisor Koenig and a 2nd from Manager Cummings. If we could have a roll telephone call, please? -Manager Koenig? -Aye. -Cummings? – Aye.-Hernandez? – Aye.

-McPherson?-Aye.- And Buddy?- Aye. Congratulations, Joey.'That passes unanimously. [thump] We ' ll relocation on to Thing 9 to think about a resolution exercising the alternative of pulling out of assembly Costs 1416 election needs causing not providing advocates and opponents of regional procedures on area ballots and take relevant activities as described in the memo of the area clerk and region administrative officer.We have the resolution and the program item. And Ms. Benson, welcome.- Thank you. [rustling] Great morning, every person. Elisa Benson with the CAO ' s workplace. I ' m here with Tricia Weber, our Region Clerk, Collections Director to present the recommendation relating to pulling out of Assembly Expense 1416, connected to including added

details on tally cards. Tricia ' s going to present the background on AB1416, and after that, I will certainly exist the CAO ' s recommendation for your consideration along with the affiliated evaluation. With that, I ' m going to pass it to Supervisor Weber.-Well, great early morning, Chair Pal and Participants of [faint]-[ faint] your mic.-You put on ' t wish to be listened to. [laughter]-I intend to project from my diaphragm. [laughter] Hi, I am Trisha Weber. I'' m the Santa Cruz Region Staff Registrar of Voters, and today I ' m below to speak with you concerning Setting up Bill 1416, which was passed and authorized in 2015 and took result on'January 1, 2023 AB1416 includes a brand-new demand for neighborhood procedures and statewide suggestions showing up on future ballots.That requirement, which was codified as a The golden state Elections Code 9170, is that straight complying with the suggestion or determine inquiry, however before the indeed, no ovals on the official ballot, we are now called for to print onto that ballot a list of people, businesses, and or organizations who are supporters or challengers of the

concern that is before the voters. While there ' s absolutely nothing that we can do locally about the regulation for the state suggestions. The legislation does enable for region Boards of Supervisors to pull out of printing that details for region, city, unique district, and institution area actions on upcoming and future ballots.AB1416 ' s goal is to improve transparency of that sustains a procedure'or opposes a procedure, as well as a listing of that might be moneying that step. This list may be the very same as who assigned disagreements that are found in the region details voter overview, but it also might differ. What will this appear like administratively? The people who submit a debate

in favor or against a measure will certainly additionally submit a listing of advocates or opponents in addition to documentation from those individuals on the list.This checklist can just be 125 characters in length. That ' s characters. So, it likewise includes spaces and spelling marks. So it will more than likely entail acronyms. The area staff ' s workplace will review the character matter, the documents that is authorized by the individuals that are provided, and establish if the abbreviations that are sent are rational, understandable, and not misleading. What will it resemble for voters? We ' ll at'a minimum. detailing the fans and opponents will certainly add 2 lines of text to every action and at the majority of will certainly add 4 lines. On our trans, excuse me, on our converted or facsimile tallies, that can be extra. The regulation allows for the assistance or opponent listing to be lowered in typeface size if required to make it fit on the tally card. Additional lines and or smaller sized font style size will certainly contribute to the intricacy of a currently really intricate ballot, and it will certainly influence the readability of that tally. AB1416 is really the 3rd model of this idea, and it have several compromises to be in the type that was passed and checked in 2022. Although I understand the goal of the sponsors behind this expense, including the fan challengers to the tally has not been evaluated for citizen, understandability, or readability efficiency. Several counties have decided out of printing advocate challengers on the regional actions And I wish to advise you that if you pick to opt-out today, you can always change that choice in the future and ask my workplace to publish the fans and challengers.

Our office has actually gotten to out to the cities and several of the colleges and special areas, and there was no problem at their level with the arrangements of pulling out of this. And I ' d like to now pass it back to Elisa, for more on the suggestions, but I ' m here to answer inquiries. [clicks tongue] -Thanks, Tricia. As stated in the memorandum, the recommendation of the Chief executive officer ' s office is to opt-out of the regulations for the March and November political elections in 2024 with a report back in early 2025 on the impacts potential expenses, and advantages of how this piece of regulations plays out in various other counties.I desire to remind everyone, we will certainly have the experience of publishing the supporters and challengers'for statewide steps. Both for March and for, for November. We will certainly have some minimal experience of just how that plays out in terms of the concerns that Tricia has detailed. What we understand now is this raises the intricacy of political election management, obtaining the details from our advocates, and or the fans and challengers of a piece of legislation.

And there are some considerable [clicks tongue] documentation that those folks need to do to show that they fulfill the conventional state in the law.And that is an impact after that on our elections staff. As Tricia stated, the summing up in obtaining it to 125 personalities will be an intriguing exercise by itself. And this might develop some additional challenges for translation. The other point is, as a lot of the evaluation around application, this info is currently provided in our published and online voter overviews. There ' s some problem that it possibly could be complex or out of series in between both bodies of details that are generated for these various effects. There ' s certainly a likelihood of a rise in political election prices as the actual estate of the ballot has to grow, and we need to add an additional card for each and every and every election. I did gain from Tricia that we ' ve just had one two-card election thus far and normally, when we transfer to 2 cards, that adds regarding$167,000 per election. And what we put on ' t know is, as Tricia said, just how does this affect, tally readability, understandability? There has actually not been user testing.So, March and November will certainly be the very first substantial user testing of this idea and we do know it enhances, indirect and straight prices'. With that, our referral is for you to pass the resolution to choose out of this for 2024, and we would certainly bring forward extra details for your factor to consider in 2025. With that, I'' m satisfied to answer any kind of other concerns, as is Director Weber.-Thank you to you both. That appears quite reduced and completely dry to me. Are there any type of concerns from … -Yeah. Well, I.- A questions from the secretary of state. [laughter]- I strongly concur with the personnel

suggestion on this product and that we require to get … have an opt-out option for 2024 March and November political elections. I ' ll be prepared to make a movement to that impact. This is just not practical right now, and I think we ' re going to find out more from just how it ' s carried out when other jurisdictions execute it in 2024. But I'assume it ' s time for us to wait and refrain from doing it, however see how it functions or doesn ' t job. -Other concerns or comments before we open it approximately the neighborhood? Seeing none. Anyone from the neighborhood wish to address us on this product? [mic rustling]-Thank you, political elections Director Weber, for taking this excellent action and the good clear record. Thanks. Uhm, I, I support this. And I wish we might likewise opt out of the state. Due to the fact that, I assume when a voter sees a lengthy checklist of advocates and opponents, they ' re mosting likely to consider that more than the content of the actual problem itself.And maybe'refrain a level of research study that we would certainly really hope every voter would certainly do to establish their very own opinion on the matter. But I ' m satisfied that we ' re going tp do it at the county level.

I read political election code 9170, and saw that partly D2, it mentions that if there is an area or school action that incorporates various other surrounding regions and they do not also do this action.They can refrain they can not include the info since our region has actually made this activity. So I intend to ask if for the instance community Cabrillo Area College area, and probably the approaching, medical facility district ballot coming up. Exactly how will this impact it and have you connected to those various other bordering regions? Thank you.- Thanks. Exists any kind of participant of the neighborhood still below in chambers? Seeing none.Is there anyone online? -We have no speakers online. -All right. We ' ll close public remark and bring it back. Ms. Weber, do you intend to briefly address the inquiry from the neighborhood on that particular one?- Sure. I ' d be happy to. So the reading is exactly correct. If one of the regions in a multi-jurisdictional or a multi-county territory is refraining from doing AB1416 provisions at the local level, then none of them can. Much of our neighbors have already pulled out of 1416. Therefore, we ' ve talked amongst ourselves and, you recognize, the neighboring counties recognized that we were coming here today to request for this too. And they ' re, they ' re fine with that said. -Thanks. All. Is there a motion for the recommended activities.- Also action.-Second. – We have a movement from Supervisor, McPherson and a second from Manager Cummings. Can we have a roll phone call, please.-Supervisor Koenig? – Aye. -Cummings?-Aye.-Hernandez?-Aye.- McPherson?-Aye. -And Buddy?-Aye, which passes with one voice. We ' ll go on to Thing 10, which is to disadvantages … Thank you both. To take into consideration authorization and concept of an ordinance modifying Phase 9.28 of the Santa Cruz Region Code connecting to quit intersections marking the crossway of La Canada Way as a, excuse me, drive as a two-way stop junction, routine an ordinance for final adoption on December 5, 2023, and take related activities as outlined in the memorandum of the deputy CAO. We ' ve obtained the'map, we ' ve got the regulation, and the strikeout underlined version. [rustling] Great early morning, Mr. Chen. Invite back.- Greetings, Chair Friend and Participants of the Board. My name is Russell Chen. I ' m an elderly civil designer accountable of the … – I believe it is. Is your microphone on? I ' m just validating it ' s on. Possibly simply require to stand a little bit closer to it.-Okay, sorry about that.-Thank you.-My name is Russell Chen. I ' m an Elderly Civil Engineer accountable of the website traffic engineering area of the area of the, sorry regarding that.Community development and facilities. I ' m here to existing Thing 10, for the board to think about authorization of th statute modifying the region code to designate the junction of La Canada Way at Meyer Drive, as'a two-way stop junction. The homeowners of Rolling Woods area have actually reported security issues due to the fact that vehicle drivers aren ' t complying with the lorry right of way at this intersection that does not have regulative traffic, signs, It is typical in this region and various other territories to not have regulative website traffic signs at crossways on regional roadways. Nevertheless, after analysis of this junction and based on design judgment. We have actually determined that a two-way quit indicator at La Canada Means will'manage car disputes and make it safer. [pause] I additionally desired to acknowledge that two representatives from the neighborhood who talked during the public remark duration in favor of the stop indicators, but they weren ' t able to remain right here for this schedule product. [pause] Because this action requires a statute, we ask for the board ' s approval in principle ordinance changing Phase 9.28 of the Santa Cruz Area code connecting to quit junctions, marking the intersection of La Canada Way and Meyer Drive as a two-way Quit intersection.If authorized, timetable of ordinance for final fostering on December 5, 2023. And straight division of Neighborhood Advancement and framework to mount all required signs and striping. Produce a two-way stop intersection, 31 days after last fostering of the regulation. Thanks.-Thanks. Thanks for your presentation. Thanks for the neighborhood bringing the issue ahead and particularly for your group for doing the professional evaluation. And it seems like everyone ' s in positioning. Exist any? Supervisor McPherson. -Yeah, this is my area. I ' m strongly all set to move the recommended action. This is close to Brookville school too. So it ' s actually vital that this has actually been an identified requirement for'public security and I would certainly move the suggested action at the ideal time.- Thanks. Is there any kind of member of the community you ' d like to address this on this product? [rustling]- Thank you, Becky Steinbrenner. I additionally support this safety measure. I only ask that for the first 1 month hereafter, the brand-new signs has been applied. That there ' s some type of a solar energy blinking red beacon around the new stop direction, such as what the city of Capitola has near town hall or as what they perform in the city of Napa. They install intense orange flags on a on a dowel on the new indicator to truly draw people ' s focus to this new quit authorize new web traffic safety measure. Just for the first one month'till individuals obtain made use of to it, to get rid of anyone blowing with, since they weren ' t here testifying today. [laughter] Thank you really much for your great work.-Thanks. See no one else in chambers. Is there anybody online however wish to resolve us on the stop indication?-We have no speakers online. -Okay, we ' ll close the item. Manager McPherson.- I relocate the advised activity. -Second. – We have a movement from Supervisor McPherson, a second from Supervisor Koenig.

Right here, we have a family members of Garibaldis, for the initial family members room.They have these remarkable blue places when they ' re teens, so that ' s going bo actually enjoyable to paint, with some kelp since we ' re renowned for the kelp woodlands below. We wear ' t usually have somebody integrates the outside and the within in this means when we obtain these public art projects.And the way that you are able to incorporate the 2 so that you ' re visually welcomed by it. One of the issues I have is I don ' t really feel welcome when I go to the constable ' s division. Allow ' s really hope that this painting will make it enlightening, more friendly, a lot more open to the community, since the sheriff ' s department is not welcoming. I'think it ' s time for us to wait and not do it, but see how it works or doesn ' t work.We obtained a roll telephone call, please. – Supervisor Koenig? – Aye. – Cummings? – Aye. – Hernandez? [silence] – I believe he tipped away for a 2nd. – McPherson? – Aye. – And Buddy? – Aye. And that passes with one voice. It'' s just one participant missing and I appreciate your deal with on that. We'' ll proceed to the last product. Today'' s open session agenda, which is a public hearing to consider the 2023 housing component to embrace a resolution considering the addendum of the sustainability update, ecological impact record modifying the region of Santa Cruz Area. The county of Santa Cruz basic plan and directing team and send the embraced housing element to the State Division of Real Estate and Community Advancement for certification and take related actions as laid out in the memo.The Deputy CAO

, director of Neighborhood Growth and Facilities, we have the memo, the real estate element, and a number of appendices linked with it. I understand we'' ve obtained a few discussions on this previously and welcome back Ms. Hanson. Thank you for this. – Thank you, Chair, Members of the Board. We'' re below today to offer the preparation commission'' s suggestion on the 2023 real estate component. [removes throat] The board has had a number of study sessions on this thing already.With me today is Mark Cornelley, who is the major organizer in our plan section. And the plan area and the real estate sections have been working on the housing aspect all year long. We ' ve had a durable public involvement procedure to inform the real paper. We ' ve provided many add-ons'consisting of the environmental effect report addendum that accompanies. So with that said,, I ' ll simply say there ' s a great deal of details in the packet and what we really put on ' t obtain to attend to like head on'. Is the truth that we ' re in a housing crisis. and this is just how we … among the actions that we can require to deal with resolving that and doing our part for the housing aspect. [

click tongue] So with that said, I'' m going to transform it over to Mark to begin our discussion today. And thank you. -Thanks, Stephanie. Greetings Chair and Board of Supervisors. Excellent to see you all this morning. As Stephanie claimed, Mark Cornelley, Principal Organizer with CDI. And what we have for you today, this is our adoption hearing for the 6th Cycle Housing Aspect We'' ve had 2 prior research sessions as Chair Good friend, aimed out.With the one back on June 14th and the other on September 12th. We'' ve additionally had 3 planning commission meetings that culminated at their October 25th meeting, where they voted all to advise fostering by the board We likewise have actually had 3 conferences with this year with the Real estate Advisory Compensation, that finished in a recommendation to the board to adopt the housing component on November 1st. We have actually likewise received remarks from our initial formal submittal to HCD which have been resolved, and we intend to resubmit to HCD tomorrow November 15th, which will hopefully, result in the certification by HCD on January 15th.

[mic thump] [silence] So, to give you a little history on why we'' re below and how we obtained below. The housing component is just one chapter of the basic plan of the region and has actually to be upgraded every eight years. This year, it'' s as a result of the State Department of Housing and Community Advancement, HCD before December 31st. So the housing element is a policy document that have to include workable things. The implementation programs that the county will certainly report development on each year in the yearly, yearly progress report.The aspect

must additionally be gone along with by a real estate websites stock. Which reveals that we can suit the designated variety of real estate devices, specified in the local real estate needs appropriation. This is our field, The sector'' s handed down to us to all neighborhood federal governments by the state and the Association of Monterey Obstacle Federal Governments. [silence] – So there was a robust community engagement procedure that personnel underwent, and this is following board direction. Staff executed this involvement plan beginning in very early 2023. Team involved an expert that specializes or defines in community involvement and that developed 2 emphasis groups. One was the stakeholder team and it was included representatives of companies and area organizations that are entailed in real estate. The various other was a people panel. This was consisted of locals that represented the region'' s demographics and those impacted by this real estate crisis.The full outcomes

of the stakeholder group and the community panel, they ' re consisted of in an Appendix C of the real estate element In addition to county personnel, we likewise looked for input from the area with 3 public meetings that were held this spring to obtain public input at large. These outcomes were 3 community meetings and those results are likewise located in Appendix C of the real estate aspect and reflect rather comparable motifs that we came up against. So what were a few of the remedies that were identified through this interaction procedure? This is a list of a few of the leading requirements and options that were determined with the general public involvement process.We located a whole lot of support for even more multiple family housing at greater densities and elevations.

Housing to deal with needs of workforce real estate and educators and housing to accommodate people with disabilities. What was truly interesting here we discovered was motivating also, remained in general the priorities of both groups, were the same. And you can see here on this slide, several of these services and priorities, that were brought to our attention. [silence] Next off, something brand-new to the 6th Cycle. Housing aspects are now required to include an analysis of reasonable real estate techniques, which incorporate an evaluation of relationships in between readily available real estate websites and areas of high or low resources and concrete activities in the type of programs to agreeably additional reasonable housing.Providing these real estate opportunities in greater resourced areas in the unincorporated area to suit higher thickness is truly the secret to fulfilling the AFFH demands. Appendix A in the real estate component has the reasonable real estate record and all the data and analysis. [pause] Simply to offer you an idea of some of the brand-new programs and policies that we put with each other. Many ongoing policies and programs that the area had in the previous cycle, which is called the fifth cycle, are still maintained in the new real estate component. We wanted to highlight some of the newer programs. So this list right here shows several of the brand-new programs across all six of the goals in the element, much of which we obtained and were suggested by the individuals of the community engagement procedure. One such instance is H one F right here, which takes into consideration numerous updates to the growth standards, consisting of examining 4 to six story growth unacceptable areas such as significant task centers.Other programs attend to rezoning as essential. Some code enforcement on getaway leasings, nexus research on inclusionary real estate and fees, housing for people with handicaps, in addition to all electrical housing. In 2022, the region adopted the sustainability policy and governing upgrade. This was a major overhaul of the county ' s general plan, zoning, and growth standards. One of the main goals of the sustainability upgrade was to enable even more real estate units and even more real estate choices, specifically along these county significant transportation corridors.Project included essential changes in advancement criteria that truly go along with housing elements such as, increasing the number of housing systems that can be established on each acre of land in areas that permit housing and adjusting codes to permit more systems. Rating a new area called the household flex zones, ZRF zone, that allows between 22 and 45 systems per acre and goes to the luxury of the county ' s thickness allowance and range. Enabling units in single household areas called that missing out on center real estate. Rezoning some homes along the transport hallways and allowing for even more real estate and combined use jobs in industrial areas. At this point, I ' d like to turn it over to Suzanne Essay, to speak about a bit of our RHNA and the website choice procedure.-Thank you, Mark. Great morning, Chair and Supervisors. Next slide, please. [silence] This table on your display reveals the analysis of the area ' s regional'real estate requirements allotment. Again, as Mark stated, these numbers concerned us from the state.So if you look at the column furthest to the left on this table, that is the region ' s appointed RHNA, [time out] RHNA, requires to be backed up by what the state describes as a website inventory. The website stock is essentially a list of homes parcels in the region where added housing devices can be constructed or added with essential parcel data and estimates of how lots of systems, could likely be fit on each home. Often, we describe that as like the estimated system yield of that home. It ' s not a conclusive decision of a minimum or an optimum, it ' s simply a price quote of what is a likely possible variety of systems that could be fit on that residential or commercial property. The initial column in this table, like I claimed, shows the RHNA that the region requires to meet. The state support suggests that areas consist of a buffer, because in a great deal of situations some of the properties will certainly not be established throughout the upcoming eight year cycle. And so if you consist of a buffer, then you have some shake space in instance several of the homes wear ' t wind up being developed.So, they suggest a barrier of at the very least 10 % to give that flexibility. We ' ve included that 10% buffer here in the 2nd column where if you add the 10 %, then you wind up with a complete objective of a little over 5,000 systems. And as you can see on the table, the devices are burst out into 4 various income degrees, from extremely reduced income to over moderate earnings. And we need to address the targets in each of those income degrees. So, we analyzed the existing zoning and general plan designation and developed an approximated capacity under existing zoning, which is revealed in the third column from the left here. which enables advancement of roughly 4167 units throughout the 4 categories. So you just do the math in between the barrier total amount and that number, and it shows that we had a shortfall of a little over 900 systems to satisfy the RHNA plus the buffer.Next slide, please. [silence] To provide you a little understanding of the different variables that we had to make use of to produce the site ' s stock to satisfy the state advice for these sites. The support offers certain requirements for what we

can take into consideration a vacant property or an underutilized residential or commercial property. The dimension of the buildings that are considered to be likely or helpful to establish with new real estate. Ideally, the absence of any type of apparent environmental hazards or restrictions, the schedule of utilities. And in the situation of the area, we have a well established urban solutions line, which pretty clearly suggests where utilities are offered. So we ' re primarily considering websites within that boundary. And in order to take into consideration sites as being possibly practical for development of housing for lower revenue houses, the density, the minimum thickness of those websites needs to be at least 20 systems an acre. Placing all that together, we'furthermore have to look at and assess these websites in the context of of the points that Mark stated on the previous slide, associating to reasonable real estate and access to resources or opportunities.The state releases a map called the TCAP chance map, or often referred to as the resource map, which we are urged to utilize for some of this evaluation. We likewise, as Mark mentioned, participated in a comprehensive neighborhood engagement process to get comments from the neighborhood about which sites make feeling or don ' t make feeling for real estate of various kinds. We also developed right into our evaluation all the application information that we have from our allowing system on pending jobs, tasks that have actually been recommended in our system for several of these sites.Property and proprietor intent is another location that we check out, in addition to as I stated, the existing zoning and general strategy classifications. Following slide, please. When we placed all that together, we have the shortfall that we ' re trying to address. We then looked at if we changed zoning for sure parcels, the number of even more units could we create? So we found that by rezoning approximately 75 parcels in the region ' s urbanized locations we could fulfill the shortage consisting of the buffer amount.And especially, we need to pay a whole lot of focus to the reduced and really low revenue, RHNA because that ' s the area where the state is particularly focused. So those were the numbers where we'actually needed to compose that shortfall. So based on, rezoning regarding 30 bigger parcels within the urban area to designations called metropolitan high or household flex, And also from rezoning several business residential or commercial properties from something called service commercial to an industrial area that permits mixed usage. By

doing that we can create sites that can fit one more approximately 1900 devices. And that'' s revealed in the 2nd column from the left on this table. In addition to that, there ' s a new state law called SB10, which allows neighborhoods to area for what they call missing middle housing which is infill on existing solitary family zone parcels to allow up to 10 devices per parcel.Which can suit task kinds such as duplexes, triplexes, quads in existing reduced density areas. And we ' ve determined concerning 40 parcels that fulfilled the criteria in that legislation that would certainly be practical for SB 10 rezoning. So, when'we include that completely, we had the ability to resolve the shortage specifically, in the'reduced revenue categories and create an approximated new ability of regarding somewhat under 2300 devices. Missing and multifamily center housing are severely required in the region to offer real estate choices for all individuals, including many neighborhood employees of different income degrees that need real estate they can pay for near their workplace. [silence] Fitting the RHNA for the lower earnings unit as I pointed out, is key to accomplishing a certified housing component. [mic smack] [inaudible] This map reveals you aesthetically where these websites in the websites inventory are situated. So, to offer you a little feeling you can see the cities, the incorporated cities in the area are shaded out in grey since the county doesn ' t have any type of territory over their development.You can see on heaven line on the map in the type of mid-county area and additionally shown in the little take below in the leading right edge that is the metropolitan services line. So, within that line is where the energies are offered and most urban solutions and growth lies. You can see on the map the sites that are shaded in blue and kind of a fuchsia purple tone are the existing sites which currently can fit real estate under their existing zoning and basic plan designations.And the websites that are shaded in yellow are those that are recommended for the rezoning that I simply described in'the previous slide. Consistent with the sustainability update and the elements noted earlier, most housing units are best fit near transport corridors and other services in existing areas and downtown which is basically in fill. In a locations without major ecological restrictions and in areas that aid us lower greenhouse gas exhausts and strategy for climate modification by reducing the demand to take a trip cross countries by solo vehicle. [pause] Because we are concentrating on infill chances in the unincorporated locations within the city services line, the proposed rezonings are all in Districts 1,2, and 4. Which is even if t s not a great deal of metropolitan services line areas that are unincorporated within Areas 3 and 5. Following slide, please. Simply to give you kind of a quick aesthetic of these other variables that we have to consider, this slide will shows you a summary of where those rezoning websites are in the mid-county area with the chance map in the background. This is that map developed by the state to reveal which areas of the entire state have greater or reduced resources, according to the certain index that they ' ve created.Now, this map is developed for the functions of scoring applications for financing, for tax debts, for cost effective housing jobs. It ' s not produced for the function of looking for growth possibility or anything like that, however it is just one other layer we have to evaluate. As you can see, as I discussed, we are concentrating the rezoning sites within the metropolitan solutions line. Even though there are some areas that are zoned as a greater resource area, which is revealed in the darker blue on the map, we ' re not recommending to, you understand, put sites in those locations since they put on ' t have accessibility to energies, they ' re rural and so forth.But to the extent that we have the capability to location websites within the urban services line, it is an excellent point in the context of this exercise

that the sites that are proposed for rezoning are all going right into the high and highest possible source areas within this minimal geographical location. This slide shows the exact same map however, for the southern part of the region. For South Region, here you can see the shielding on the opportunity map is really in the reduced category, the low source category. Now, a great deal of that involves the fact that this is a country location and a farming area and there ' s just not a great deal of country and urban kind sources available like transportation and so forth. It also suggests, other factors that play right into this index that is developed by TCAC, which have to do with household revenue levels, educational

attainment and work degrees. It ' s a combination of all of those elements. Now, right here we do have six parcels within this area that are proposed for rezoning, however they are within the city services line, which you can see on the map right here in orange.And, although, we try to place the majority of the real estate websites within the higher source locations, we understand that there is a need for ranch worker housing, for instance, in South Area, especially, that ' s where the farms are. And at the very least one of these websites, is actively being thought about for an inexpensive ranch worker real estate task. And a few of the other websites could be favorable for that sort of housing also. I likewise intend to point out that as your board understands, the County has proactively invested a great deal of effort and time and sources into improving accessibility to County facilities and solutions in South County, such as the recent Whiting Road Park procurement, the [clicks tongue] West Marine facility in South County for Region services, etc. So you know, this resource map index might develop with time as a few of those jobs and transportation renovations and park enhancements are completed.Next slide, please. The next 2 slides I ' m going to reveal you, show the exact same information generally, however the history layer is altered. Rather of showing the resource map, we ' re revealing you market data from the most current five-year census home window which reveals race and Hispanic origin variables. and you can see on this map of mid-county, the brown shading on the map indicates that the primary racial or ethnic group because location is people that replied to the demographics as white alone, not Hispanic or Latino. And the darker the shading, the more predominant that group is in that census system. Please if we go to the next slide. You can see in this map, we have two basic shades on the map, which is the very same one as on the prior slide. And additionally, this environment-friendly shading indicates that the primary group was those that responded as Hispanic or Latino to the demographics takers.

And once again, the darker the shading,'the extra predominant that team is. This belongs to the reasonable housing analysis that we ' re needed to do. And once again, I assume we ' re doing the finest we can considered that the situations we have to try to offer the majority of the sites for brand-new real estate in areas that would, [cllicks tongue] counteract those historic kind of pressures that have actually brought about even more of this segregation pattern that you see in the map here.And that is what the advice requires us to do. And keeping that, I ' ll hand it back over to Mark. [mic thumping]-Thank you, Suzanne. We wished to take a brief opportunity here to discuss one of the significant chances sites that we have in our supply. Which ' s one at 2600 Mar Panorama Drive formerly referred to as the Aptos The Same Level III Golf Program site. [time out] It ' s an approximate 14 acre site that we ' re approximating to acquire 430 systems on. And we identify some constraints and alternatives in website'style that would have to be taken into factor to consider. Several of these, as you can see below on your slide, the yellow line that runs alongside freeway one, that ' s freeway one there in your slide, clearly. That is an existing right of means. It ' s a 50 foot right-of-way that exists on the website. To ensure that ' s an approximate two-and-a-half-acre amount of easement that feeds on the site.There ' s additionally one more easement you see at the top corner of the website and that ' s an additional easement for gain access to and right of method. The website is also encumbered by other easements. General easements, there ' s a pink one, as you see is kind of slide north below to the top border, there ' s a pink easement that goes along the household neighborhoods there and filterings system down into an additional easement. That ' s a water drainage infrastructure easement that exists on the site. In basic, also ponding and drain runoff, insufficient stormwater, infrastructure, and these surrounding websites and highways. Create quite a great deal of restraint on the site for the purposes of growth. [time out] Offered these restraints and the called for circulation enhancements. team estimates that obtaining 430 systems on the site, regarding 2 to 4 acres of open room is an affordable price quote to accommodate those systems and still offer sufficient open'space, specifically provided the code demand minimum of 15 %. There ' s a resolution in your packet that personnel has prepared. It has particular provisions for this website, including plan of attack the website and the 2 to four acres of open development space that would permit versatility for future development on the site, given these intricacies and constraints on the website. [silence] Sp, Team has also included in your package, simply a quick overview of the HCD comments that we got on October 23, 2023, and they were rather light. So I ' ll simply inform you just go throughout these actual quick. It simply comes down to added information that was requested on fair real estate and special requirements analysis, programs and policies.

It ' s not a conclusive determination of a minimum or an optimum, it ' s simply an estimate of what is a likely feasible number of systems that might be fit on that home. We found that by rezoning approximately 75 parcels in the county ' s urbanized locations we might satisfy the shortfall including the buffer amount.And specifically, we have to pay a whole lot of attention to the reduced and really low revenue, RHNA because that ' s the location where the state is especially focused. It ' s an approximate 14 acre website that we ' re estimating to acquire 430 units on. That ' s an approximate two-and-a-half-acre quantity of easement that exists on the site.There ' s likewise another easement you see at the leading corner of the website and that ' s another easement for accessibility and right of method. General easements, there ' s a pink one, as you see is kind of slide north right here to the top boundary, there ' s a pink easement that goes along the domestic areas there and filters down into another easement.The whole concept is that it ' s supposed to make real estate less costly to develop and make units more affordable.But if those devices are getting, um, you understand, If we ' re removing those car parking demands and those expenses for programmers, it ' d be great for us to see that mirrored in lower-cost housing for lease rather than those devices simply being subject to whatever the market can bear. When it comes back, , I ' m not able to make a movement, yet I ' ll simply ask that there ' s a mild change to the resolution that specifies that when it comes back to the board. I sustain doing that and I also aim out that in attending, uh, past housing advisory payment meetings, there was a Julie Conway that recommended that we remove, um, having, uh, budget friendly needs for rental devices since it simply wouldn ' t pencil out for programmers and she wouldn ' t obtain any type of applications if that were left in location So I ' m pleased to hear that that ' s gon na come back.That ' s essential, since the bulk of the people below are renters.

Um, I do hope that, you know, as elected we can proceed to press the state, , to refine this procedure, I believe to -some of the points that Supervisor McPherson just brought up, you recognize, we need to build for what our community requires, um, not just be required to build as'much real estate as possible and, um, we require to be able to develop to what our infrastructure can sustain due to the fact that we are gon na be have -faced with, , you recognize, influences from environment change, whether it ' s sea degree surge and, , having saltwater invasion some of our wells and preparing for that, or if it ' s just long-term drought and how that will certainly converge with the increased amount of, um, structure and our area growth and how we can make certain that it ' s sustainable over time.Um, so simply hope that we can, you know, offer some input to the state as this process kind of unravels and as we proceed to create. It ' s a cost-effective way of trying to make certain pencil ' s out for developers and so they obtain fair market return, that enhanced 5% of inclusionary units. The entire idea is that it ' s meant to make real estate less expensive to develop and make devices much more affordable.But if those systems are getting, , you understand, If we ' re removing those car park requirements and those costs for programmers, it ' d be good for us to see that mirrored in lower-cost real estate for rent rather than those devices simply being subject to whatever the market can bear. When it comes back, um, I ' m not able to make a movement, but I ' ll simply ask that there ' s a small change to the resolution that specifies that when it comes back to the board. I sustain doing that and I also point out that in attending, uh, previous housing advising commission conferences, there was a Julie Conway that suggested that we eliminate, um, having, uh, cost effective requirements for rental units since it just wouldn ' t pencil out for developers and she wouldn ' t get any type of applications if that were left in place So I ' m happy to listen to that that ' s gon na come back.That ' s vital, because the bulk of the individuals here are occupants.Not just can we not maintain the housing that we already have, but homeowner'' s insurance coverage prices for homeowners and citizens in this area has actually doubled in the last year. The policy in this housing component does very little to aid mother and pops. Big designer that would build a level zone housing will laugh in my face if I asked him to fix my roofing from a fire or my driveway from the rainfalls. We'' ve seen instances of this San Jose- design real estate get developed here in the county.They take a long period of time to develop and are exceptionally costly. Do we actually expect that large developers will choose to integrate in our area as opposed to their owns? And if when they do, they do so at a premium. The people that can manage to live in them are gon na be individuals people with Bay Area work if you authorize this Bay Area kind of real estate. If you ' re gon na permit 40 units per acre for large designers, then why on planet would the region proceed its established policy of just allowing 1 or 2 bed and breakfast for luxe? Please, enable the existing citizens of Santa Cruz County to build our very own housing.At this factor you ' ve all been alerted that the state permits additional ADU ' s and visitor

residences, and yet our'policy is still just permitted the state-mandated minimum. It ' s crazy to need real estate to be developed around transport that is years away. Why not focus our housing near existing framework of colleges? We anticipate our reps to support us and I ' m anticipating aiding elect two brand-new supervisors that will certainly help permit our local contractors and homeowners to contribute.Thank you.-Thanks.-Antoinette, your microphone is now readily available.- Alright. Hello once again. Antoinette Ranit, lawyer

of Whitmore Parkin. Our law company has actually been retained by the Aptos Council and we submitted a letter the other day mid-day on part of the group opposing the 2023 real estate aspect as it relates to Par3. To be clear, the Aptos Council supports budget-friendly housing with raised densities in appropriate locations. Nonetheless, to do so correctly requires ample environmental testimonial. The county can not move onward with the basic strategy amendments and rezoning by just preparing an addendum to the EIR for the sustainability plan and governing upgrade for several reasons.First, merely needing a future master plan and preparing an addendum to examine the impacts of suggested general plan amendments and rezoning of The same level 3 is lawfully inadequate

. As shown by the remarks affixed to our letter, the background of Par 3 reveals that the area has actually long turned down the site as an area for housing so that it might continue to be an important leisure and open area resource. Former owners of the parti parcel likewise shared the belief. Furthermore, the parti parcels would ' ve gain access to and visual problems that dense housing units are permitted for advancement. In 2008, the county eventually turned down structure housing on these homes because of neighborhood outcry that still resonates today. Furthermore, the county is additionally engaging in bit-by-bit ecological testimonial by just preparing an addendum. Lawful precedent has actually long developed that the environmental impacts of a task can not be immersed by slicing a larger job into smaller sized pieces. Addendum is inappropriate here. The area requires to prepare a different EIR for the real estate element as as it was indeed proceeding with both programs separately.Lastly, thinking for the sake of the debate that the EIR for the sustainability policy can be made use of for the housing element update, succeeding environmental review is the only proper method to conform with CEQA. When again, an addendum is not suitable here. Thank you.

-Thank you for your remarks.-Joanne Carmen, your microphone is now readily available.-Yes. Hi. Um, great mid-day. My name is Joanna Carmen. I ' m the supervisor of housing for Mid Penn Real estate ' s Watsonville office. Mid Penn Housing is a nonprofit affordable housing programmer with over 50 years of experience building over 130 neighborhoods and 8,600 apartment or condo homes for low-income family members, senior citizens, and those with supportive housing needs throughout 14 areas of Northern California. Below in Santa Cruz Area, we have and handle around 750 house homes in 13 areas for the growth pipeline of an additional nine community. We echo our companions such as housing, Santa Cruz Region, Monterey Bay Economic Collaboration in Santa Cruz, DMB, and their assistance of the 2023 real estate component as offered by staff. I want to give thanks to the board of managers and region team for all the deep community and the hard job interaction process, in addition to your leadership in checking out means to develop even more cost effective real estate in the county.We at Mid Penn are really familiar with the budget-friendly real estate requirement. Below in Santa Cruz County, our delay listing go beyond over 60, sorry, 6,000 homes for our existing 750 house homes. In order to meet the RHNA objectives, the county requires to use all the devices at its disposal to boost multifamily real estate advancement and make certain that manufacturing ben-benefits everyone throughout all earnings levels. We support consisting of all of the websites as recommended by personnel in the 2023 real estate element. Our point of view is that the supply needs to consist of feasible, yet wide-ranging websites to make certain maximal flexibility in the system, and the extra specific site preparation takes place downstream and can occur downstream when programmers rre-refine the scope throughout the entitlement process.So thank you quite for your time today and for your ongoing leadership in combating the budget friendly housing dilemma. Thank you.-Thank you. -We have no additional speakers chair.-Alright, thanks. We ' ll close the public hearing and bring it back to the board. Just as a, my coworkers are amenable, simply so I can be clear on what I was asking for, , on the resolution, there ' s a product that states that the master plan suits from 2 to 4 acres. I ' m just stating a minimum of four acres, a publicly obtainable space, nothing else language adjustment in anything, but all other advised activities. Exists any kind of other comments or a movement from'any one of the board members?- Uh, uh, both comments and a question. Um, so to start with, , to your recommended modifications or I mean, um, the modifications you ' d like to attend the resolution, , it was discussed there ' s several, uh, easements on the parcel.I assume one, the largest being the one fronting the highways, 2.6 acres. Um, so would certainly the open area be need, demand be in addition to those easements or could the open room theoretically remain in within those easements?-Go ahead.-So, , it ' s a, it ' s a right of way easement in support of, uh, public works roadways, basically for, presumably it appears like when that map was tape-recorded, uh, that was

to permit link of the end of Mar Vista Drive, drag it via the reduced side of the home and connect up to the, uh, access easement that ' s on the resort residential or commercial property … at, uh, and attach to [inaudible] Um, we did obtain, um, some preliminary ideas from our director that possibly not all of that easement would certainly be necessary for roadway right away, but after that we likewise spoke to the fire chief, uh, for main fire to see if he thought it would be essential wherefore ' s called an emergency situation automobile access, uh, which generally that'' s a huge variable in site planning for multifamily greater thickness tasks ' trigger the fire vehicles need to be able to make it through a home to combat fire if necessary.And, um, the fire principal contacted his, uh, uh, advancement review group and returned and claimed, yes, he believes that it would certainly be necessary. Also if we didn ' t require it for a public roadway necessarily, you would most likely need it for an EVA at'minimum. Now it doesn ' t always need to remain in the area 'where it is, but it would possibly occupy the very same amount of property also if you relocate

, for example, to the middle of the website. The short response to your question is essentially it ' s much more than most likely that the open room would have to be fit on the website exterior of that highway basement.But once more, I believe as one of the commenters pointed out, we ' re not in the website preparation stage right currently, we ' re just embracing a general plan aspect. And so not sufficient is recognized concerning the site to be able to definitively answer several of these concerns concerning what might fit or what couldn ' t fit. To ensure that ' s why our, our suggested language in the resolution was constructed around the idea of maintaining some level of flexibility to make sure that site planning can take place

in the future when a real task proposal comes onward and they would do even more due diligence on the field problems and existing easements etc. -. Um, and then the 2nd question is, when we thought about a real development proposal for that website, um, under the'sustainability'update we currently consider, um, roast [] establish swimming pool acreage.Um, so what does that mean that successfully the very same number of devices could be built despite the amount of acres are committed to open area?-Well, so we, we are looking at this concern for various policy functions at various moments. Today, the objective before us is is to get a certified housing element accredited by the state. Regardless of where we might land on that answer in the future, in an advancement review context with a project application, , the means, uh, our understanding is based on the HCD advice, we can ' t develop in possible thickness perk systems into our return price quote. So, they sort of need us to take a look at the yield estimate just based upon ordinary old zoning, right? What the thickness array is. Which ' s what we ' ve done. And essentially, , you understand, we won ' t necessarily know unless they, until they review our bundle and comment on whatever we send them. What we are conservatively estimating that they could do is state, “Well, if you ' re just going to enable development on X number of acres, then you need to minimize your yield price quote accordingly and that was what we presented on the slide.So in various other words, if 3 of the acres require to be open area, then you have a net 10 acres left for property growth the way they look at'it. Therefore'it would be lowered by about 31 units for each acre that we call for to be open space. That ' s not to state we would certainly assess it similarly in the context of an actual growth application where a programmer would certainly have, “you'know, various alternatives such as thickness incentive, and they might cluster systems and all of that. Yet we can ' t assurance necessarily that a designer would make use of all those choices and that ' s why their, uh, approach for predicting return at this phase in the video game where we ' re adopting a plan record, it ' s a bit more high-level and a little much more, you understand, conventional approach. -Okay. Um, so does that mean that if we were to alter the, uh, language in the resolution to state that it requires to be four acres as opposed to 2 with a desire for four, that we could, uh, see some pushback from HCD and stating that, , uh, real estate aspect needs to be revised and'simply then that influence to the due date? -Uh, yeah, we, we haven ' t, we wear ' t know what their feedback will be, yet Suzanne indicated it ' s really possible that they would certainly state, look, you, you lower your capability'right here therefore you require to figure out where you ' re gon na provide, um, the units.And specifically that mix of extremely reduced and reduced, right? Where a large website like that is actually crucial to helping us meet that earnings, uh, sector. So it ' s feasible.- Okay. Um, I have a tough time desiring to then minimize the developable acreage on this website due to, I mean, what ' s been just claimed. Um, and additionally, I ' d point out that the substantial bulk of the sites that are being taken into consideration for rezoning and brand-new housing are taking place in the first district Therefore it ' s a little aggravating that truly one big site in 2nd district that is being considered would be,

you recognize, minimized and reduced and reduced regarding just how many homes we in fact wan na see constructed there.A couple of extra remarks here. You understand, I believe both things individuals despise the many are adjustment and the means things are, and we are stuck in this scenario right now. We ' re actually keeping things the method they are. We ' re changing our neighborhood quicker than ever before due to the fact that we ' re seeing the hollowing out of, uh, individuals that can manage to live and function here. And actually that ' s having a larger im -effect on our facilities than I think also the housing that we plan to construct will certainly because if we can ' t, if we don ' t have housing right here to house the cleanliness employees, water workers, , and everybody else that keeps our neighborhood working, um

, then our framework itself will certainly fail. You know, I believe when, when we, I think about a word to explain Santa Cruz, it ' s vibrant and if we ' re gon na maintain that, then we definitely require to build this real estate in order to'support a thriving community, uh, a diverse neighborhood and make certain that, uh, you understand, all the individuals that make Santa Cruz special can remain to pay for to live here.So, you'recognize, as has been claimed, you recognize, the real rezonings and the jobs will additionally all go through your own public process in the future. I think that, you recognize, in relation to the part three site, we ' ve shared some pretty clear desire, we ' ve established a reasonable minimum with a need for much more. We ' ve been doing outreach on this problem that the housing element all year. I understand I ' ve discussed it in countless newsletters had many town halls regarding it. I assume it ' s actually at the most effective place it can be right currently or where we can all consent to move on. Certainly, there ' s a lot more we can do in the future. I assume absolutely we consider additional most incentives for budget friendly housing chances to raise the variety of ADUs per parcel so that, little homeowner can likewise aid alleviate our real estate dilemma. But also for the moment being, I believe this is a massive and vital advance in our efforts to deal with the real estate dilemma and maintain a diverse and vibrant community. -Alright.I simply want to, I indicate, I believe it ' s essential to comment. Both acres is currently the minimum on called for under the domestic flex. So what we ' re discussing, I indicate, we'' re placing it right into resolution as though 2 acres is like a gift yet it ' s in fact going to be included in irrespective of the commentary you simply made. What I ' m stating is that we ' d still maintain over 70%of the programmer area. At the end of the day, designer can be available in as we ' re discussing as a planning record and state they intend to put four units there. They could purchase it and do whatever they want. I indicate, they could state that they want to put 450 units there based on the density reward. My point being that this is the preparation record. This does not preclude, let me state this, it shouldn ' t be included in the resolution. If there ' s a problem concerning it ever being authorized from HCD or precludes growth at the site.I mean the, site resolution states two to 4 acres. I ' m claiming, after that we ' ll take the 4 as the referral from the board. The team is saying that, that ' s something that can be accommodated. Additionally, identifying that we have this 10%barrier, which this doesn ' t completely get rid of, right? On the 10% excess. I still am requesting that we preserve, and additionally there ' s a history here of considerable conversations concerning what would certainly be on the site, like we spoke about last time with the senior real estate. Obviously, that can ' t be required, but I don ' t think that scheduling four acres for a publicly -publicly obtainable open space for 400 systems is an actually unreasonable ask. I assume it incorporates well, especially with the type of real estate that ' ll go in there

with all probability that individuals must have access to parks.I mean, they should, I indicate, we ' re making these financial investments in South county with a large park and what we ' re generally stating is that, what we believe serves for low-income housing is the, the least minimum needed by code for open room and parks and I think that that ' s a policy decision. So, uhm, I return to the resolution already states from 2 to 4, and allow me state that, and you might have. I ' m sure you most likely did talk to your preparation commissioner, it was really clear that the planning compensation wanted four. I mean, that wasn ' t, this wasn ' t like up to, there wasn ' t a dispute in that situation.It was strongly asked to take full advantage of the amount and they were repeatedly asking questions regarding what it would certainly suggest if it were more than that.

And, these devices were not actually supplied to the preparation commission that were supplied to us today, although they were consistently being asked if you listened to that type of an intriguing discussion. But with that claimed, that ' s exactly how it boiled down to why they rejected to actually state a certain number, yet they recommended in the preparation compensation recommendation that they suggest to us 4 acres, although the resolution claims two to 4, the board, the board letter in fact does state that there was a preference, or it states that, however the resolution is 2 to four. So I ' m still simply asking for that, , we suit the four, but it would certainly need a movement of among my colleagues in order to do so.But I value what you had stated. Exist any kind of other remarks from board participants and or, and or an activity? Once, and I ' ll dive on a motion at. We need an activity to adopt whatever. So is there at the very least a movement or?-I ' ll relocate the advised actions.-Alright. We have a motion in a 2nd without any change to the resolution language.Is that'correct? -Correct. -Is there any added, do I have the ability to introduce a counter activity as the chair or is that something I can ' t do?- Yes, you have the ability to do that.-Okay. Then I ' d much like to present an alternative activity that is for all the advised actions with one adjustment to the resolution Line B, that it simply mention four acres.' So publicly available open area. All. There ' s a second to the alternative activity from Manager McPherson. So we have to elect on

the alternative movement initially?-Yes. -All right. Or alternative movement. -All. Yes?-Obtain the ballot? -Yeah.Oh, please roll phone call, please. Oh, sorry.-Is that an inquiry regarding some of what Supervisor Koenig raised earlier. I ' m just wondering exactly how this influences, um, and exactly how this would certainly be embraced and any type of sort of pushback we obtain from HCD.

I suggest, I likewise have some worries around pieces around affordable real estate and having those in incorporated. If there ' s, this is the time to, you recognize, integrate various other points around inexpensive real estate.' I imply, I believe that, that it would certainly make feeling if we ' re mosting likely to be making these modifications, to the real estate aspect and what ' s being suggested in these resolutions So, I ' m just wondering, you know, exactly how might this, if there ' s, if this would certainly reduce things down and if not. If this is the time due to the fact that I really assumed that this was type of it that we were gon na take on the real estate component and send it off to the state and that it wouldn ' t be coming back to us.Is that deal with?-That ' s what the staff suggestion is that.'we, you dopt the housing component and after that we send it off to the state. We expect the state might have some even more small, adjustments. They ' ve, they ' ve called for an, a demanding evaluation of all different sort of reasonable real estate concerns and … and so'we maintain including in the record, however it ' s not truly substantively transforming policy or items of residential or commercial property that are consisted of in the stock. There might be a further modification based on their more remarks. Contractors remedy impends out there for us, we are attempting our finest to lower the home window where a designer could'can be found in and develop whatever they please with some limitations. Um, So the extra we can support the supply without the enhancement of restraints, , the more probable we are to obtain HCD to license in a timely fashion.The policies in the housing aspect do a big quantity to support budget-friendly housing and we did not fail on budget friendly real estate. And we ' ve discussed the Nexus research to resolve our inclusionary, , and the board, if you recall during a research session, discussed that and didn ' t wan na make any type of changes at that time To ensure that language has been relatively, , undamaged except possibly with some ACD adjustments. Um, uh, so'we, we strongly recommend that the board progress, uh, with the fostering of, of the housing elements to make sure that we can reach a certified scenario that doesn ' t, um, likewise have the potential for reducing our ability to obtain financing for, uh, tasks. It ' s very crucial that we reach compliance asap. -Yet nobody ' s questioning whether we ' re taking on the housing aspect today. Right. I suggest, it ' s a [laugh] I think that that

was sort of a complex response for what was being asked. I ' m simply saying that what we ' re doing is adopting real estate component This is language and after that a resolution certain to one parcel, which is incidentally, the advised language from personnel as component of the fostering of housing component that includes in this range.And so I ' m just defining where in the variety.-I appreciate those comments. I do also believe that, you understand, this is, given that this is a dev, small deviation from what team is recommending, I suggest, I would really feel comfortable sustaining this if we ' re gon na have some additional assistance for a few of the issues on inexpensive housing that I ' ve been raising. Um', specifically incorporating in, um, that substitute cost effective devices, uh, would not be counted towards inclusionary units, um, which once more is enabled by state regulation.

The brief solution to your inquiry is basically it ' s much more than likely that the open space would have to be fit on the website outside of that roadway basement.But again, I think as one of the commenters discussed, we ' re not in the website planning stage right currently, we ' re just adopting a basic strategy aspect. We can ' t warranty always that a designer would certainly take advantage of all those options and that ' s why their, uh, approach for predicting return at this stage in the game where we ' re taking on a policy paper, it ' s a little bit extra top-level and a little bit much more, you recognize, conventional method. I assume it integrates well, especially with the kind of housing that ' ll go in there

with all likelihood that people should have access to parks.I mean, they should, I indicate, we ' re making these financial investments in South region with a huge park and what we ' re basically claiming is that, what we think is acceptable for low-income real estate is the, the least minimum needed by code for open room and parks and I assume that that ' s a plan decision. I suggest, I think that, that it would certainly make feeling if we ' re going to be making these modifications, to the real estate component and what ' s being recommended in these resolutions So, I ' m simply questioning, you recognize, how might this, if there ' s, if this would slow things down and if not. I ' m simply claiming that what we ' re doing is adopting real estate aspect This is language and after that a resolution specific to one parcel, which is by the means, the advised language from team as part of the adoption of housing aspect that adds in this range.And so I ' m simply specifying where in the variety.I'' m-I ' m simply -this is a system for exactly how it ' s being done.-So yeah, if it ' s clear, after that yep, we wouldn ' t matter replacement systems as inclusionary and then, , we ' d include an inclusionary demand for rental real estate. It ' s feasible they ' ll have some, , much more comprehensive, a substantial analysis that we ' ll have to kind of placed in there and a great deal of their remarks have extremely, , evaluation driven, you recognize, not, they ' re not proposing to transform programs when they haven ' t. , yet all of that evaluation will, uh, notify how they look at our inventory and so we are wishing that they ' re going to be great with the analysis and after that good with the, , supply and as I stated, we ' re attempting to close the gap, , in between accreditation.

I'' m-I ' m just -this is a system for just how it ' s being done.-So yeah, if it ' s clear, then yeah, we wouldn ' t matter substitute units as inclusionary and after that, um, we ' d include an inclusionary requirement for rental real estate. Um, I would send since of the issue, the contractor'' s remedy, that if we get specific comments back that they have a concern with the 4 and they ' re comfy with the 2 to four, I would certainly consider that to be an all right thing for personnel to make the alteration and I would certainly ask for then that you make the exact same, um, that you have the same, uh, willingness if they claim that they'' d rather see that as part of the Nexus research so that we wear'' t have something that ' s out of conformity ' cause what, what we'' re here is we ' re attempting to get these objectives across and we ' re likewise attempting to get this licensed? We won'' t, we won ' t obtain comments back from them. It ' s possible they ' ll have some, um, a lot more considerable, a substantial analysis that we ' ll have to kind of put in there and a great deal of their comments have very, , evaluation driven, you know, not, they ' re not recommending to transform programs when they sanctuary ' t. , yet all of that analysis will, uh, notify exactly how they look at our supply and so we are wishing that they ' re going to be good with the analysis and after that great with the, um, supply and as I pointed out, we ' re trying to close the space, , in between qualification.
