PROPOSED CHANGES.
WE'RE CANS -LG OUR RECESS AND

IT'S COUNCIL MEMBER O'BRIEN'S
ITEM SO I MAY BE PINCH HITTING
FOR HIM.
>> CRAIG DOSS CENTRAL STAFF.
>> THANK YOU, CALVIN IS THIS
YOURS?
>> SURE, ITEM NUMBER 28 IS
COUNCIL MEMBER 3B1.
I WOULD ADD 300,000 TO THE
GENERAL FUND.
AND ONE FTE TO SUPPORT
TRANSPORTATION EQUITY AGENDA.
WE DO THIS BY CUTTING 300,000
OF FINANCE GENERAL RESERVES.
THIS WAS A REQUEST THAT WAS NOT
INCLUDED IN THE INITIAL PACKAGE
AND HAS COME FORWARD AGAIN IN A
SMALLER AMOUNT.
>> OKAY, THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
ANY COMMENTS ON THIS.
I CAN'T SPEAK FOR COUNCIL
MEMBER O'BRIEN, DO YOU HAVE ANY
OTHER INFORMATION THAT YOU
WOULD LIKE TO PROPOSE HERE?
>> I JUST NOTE THAT, THIS IS
FUNDING TO FUND IMPLEMENTATION
EFFORTS FOR THE EQUITY AGENDA.
AND THAT THE ORIGINAL REQUEST
WAS 700,000 AND THIS REQUEST IS
NOW 300,000.
>> THANK YOU ANY FURTHER
COMMENTS.
IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME AS A COSPONSOR PLEASE
RAISE YOUR HAND.
OKAY LET'S MOVE ON TO 29.
>> ITEM 29 IS S DOT 9B1.
IT IS A PROPOSAL FOR SPENDING
ON THE SOUTHWEST RAPID LINE H
LINE.
IT PROHIBITS SPENDING ON
CONSTRUCTION UNTIL THE
DEPARTMENT HAS MOVED ON 10
ITEMS.
IT'S COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> THIS REPLACES A REVIE --
REVISAL.
THIS REQUIRES THAT SDOT REPORT
TO THE COUNCIL ON A NUMBER OF
WORK PROGRAM ITEMS THAT HAVE
BEEN IDENTIFIED BY THE
COMMUNITY AS IMPORTANT BEFORE
THEY RELEASE THE FUNDS.
SO THEY WOULD HAVE TO ISSUE THE
REPORT.
THE COUNCIL WOULD NOT HAVE TO
ACT ON THAT REPORT.
THE ISSUES IDENTIFIED BY THE
COMMUNITY THAT ARE IMPORTANT
FOR INCLUSION IN THIS REPORT
ARE OUTREACH AND ENGAGEMENT FOR
BUSINESSES THAT MIGHT BE
AFFECTED BY THE PROJECT IN THE
ROLE OFFICE OF ECONOMIC
DEVELOPMENTS ALONG DELL RIDGE.
PEDESTRIAN CROSSINGS, BUS LINES
AND PARKING REMOVAL AND
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BICYCLE
MASTER PLAN AS PART OF THESE
PROJECTS.
A CONSIDERATION OF THE TRAFFIC
DIVERTER.
THE COUNCIL IS IMPOSED EARLIER
PROVISES AS PART OF PROJECT
STAGE GATING AND IDENTIFIED
PROJECTS TO EVALUATE.
SDOT HAS REPORTED 85%
COMPLETION.
YAY.
SDOT PLANS TO COMPLETE IN
JANUARY OR EARLY FEBRUARY.
THEY PLAN PROJECT COMPLETION BY
SEPTEMBER 2021.
>> CAN YOU CLARIFY FOR ME IS
THIS REVISAL RESTRICTING
FURTHER EXPENDITURE AT 95%
DONE.
>> WE'RE AT 95% NOW.
THE REQUIREMENT IS THAT, THEY
REPORT BACK ON THESE, THESE
ISSUES, AND THEN WE'LL RELEASE
THE REST OF THE FUNDING TO GET
TO 100% DESIGN.
WE WILL NOT HAVE TO ACT THOUGH
TO RELEASE THE FUNDING AS WE
HAD BEFORE.
>> NO SPENDING ON CONSTRUCTION
IS ALLOWED.
SO IT ALLOWS THEM TO DO THE
WORK.
>> AT THE STAGE AT WHICH WE
WERE.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
TALK TO ME A LITTLE BIT MORE
ABOUT THE CONSTRUCTION DESIGN
GOING FORWARD.
THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SUPPOSED BUT
YOU'RE NOT SUPPORTING ACTUAL
CONSTRUCTION UNTIL YOU GET THAT
REPORT.
>> EXACTLY.
>> OKAY VERY GOOD.
ANYBODY WOULD LIKE TO ADD ANY
MORE INFORMATION ON THIS I
WOULD.
>> WE'RE PLANNING TO HAVE A
MEETING ON THIS NOVEMBER 24th.
WE'LL SEE HOW THAT PLAYS OUT.
>> VERY GOOD.
SHOULD THEY HAVE ENOUGH
INFORMATION.
DO WE PULL THE REVISAL.
>> THAT WILL BE AFTER WE PASS
THE BUDGET.
>> YOUR EXPECTATION IS IF YOU
GET THAT INFORMATION THEY WILL
HAVE FULFILLED THE REVISAL AND
DOES NOT HAVE DO GO FORWARD.
THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME TO THIS PROPOSAL
PLEASE ADD YOUR NAME.
I GOT A REQUEST FROM THE
AUDIENCE IF YOU WILL TELL ME
HOW MANY PEOPLE RAISE THEIR
HANDS BECAUSE I CAN'T ALWAYS
SEE THEM.
SO IN THIS CASE IT WAS FOUR.
I COULD SEE THOSE.
AND IN THE FUTURE IF YOU WILL
SAY THERE'S FOUR COSPONSORS.
THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD, LET'S MOVE ON TO 30.
>> ITEM 30 IS A STATEMENT OF
INTENT FDOT1601.
TO MAKE ALL PUBLIC TRANSIT IN
SEATTLE FREE TO RIDE.
THIS WAS COUNCIL MEMBER SAWANT.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER O'BRIEN DID
YOU WANT TO SPEAK TO THIS.
>> I DO.
I HAVE BEEN TALKING TO -- HOW
TO MAKE ALL TRANSIT IN SEATTLE
FREE FOR ALL TO USE.
OPTIONS INCLUDE REQUIRE
EMPLOYERS TO FUND CARTS FOR ALL
WHO ARE COMING IN GOVERNMENT
AGREEMENT TO MAKE SEATTLE A
RIDE FREE ZONE.
SO I RAISED MY HAND TO SUPPORT
THIS.
>> ANY FURTHER COMMENTS?
THOSE IN FAVOR OF ADDING YOUR
NAME RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> THREE COUNCIL MEMBER.
>> OKAY, THANK YOU.
NEXT ITEM IS 31.
>> ITEM 31 IS A STATEMENT OF
LEGISLATIVE INTENT, SDOT 1931.
A REPORT TO ASK FOR
NEGOTIATION.
THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER
O'BRIEN'S.
>> OKAY.
>> THIS I'M WORKING WITH
COUNCIL MEMBER PACHECO TO
COMBINE SOME OF THE LANGUAGE
THAT HE WAS HOPING TO PUT IN IN
A SEPARATE SLIDE.
AROUND LEVEL OF SERVICE, AND
SO, THE ONE YOU HAVE POSTED TO
THE AGENDA IS A WORK IN
PROGRESS WE'RE HOPING TO BRING
IN SOME OF HIS LANGUAGE TOO.
ESSENTIALLY TO GET A
COMPREHENSIVE REPORT BACK ON
HOW THE STREETS ARE IN THE
INNER CITY.
>> OUR NATIONAL BEST PRACTICES
WHAT IS IT CALLED NATCO,
NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF
TRANSPORTATION.
>> I THINK WE WOULD LOOK AT
THAT FOR SURE BUT ALSO LOOK AT
OTHER MODEL CITIES OR PEER
CITIES ON WHAT THEY'RE DOING
AND SEEING HOW SEATTLE STACKS
UP.
I THINK WHAT WE FIND IS PLACES
LIKE NATCO STANDARDS EVOLVE.
SO THEY'LL BE LOOKING AT A
VARIETY OF THINGS.
>> I WOULD JUST LIKE TO ASK
MORE ABOUT THE SERVICE
ANALYSIS.
IS THAT SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN
ADDED OR AUGMENT THAT.
>> MY UNDERSTANDING IS MORE TO
STREETS DISCUSSION.
MORE INTO SOMETHING THE
DEPARTMENT CAN MOVE FORWARD
WITH AS A POLICY.
AS OPPOSED TO SORT OF AN
ACADEMIC EXERCISE BUT HOW DOES
IT ACTUALLY FIT INTO THE POLICY
CHANGE THAT THE DEPARTMENT
MIGHT DO.
I WOULD ALSO JUST NOTE THAT THE
SLIDE DOES SPEAK TO SPECIFIC
BEST PRACTICES IDENTIFIED BY
THE STREETS AMERICA.
THERE'S A SET OF PRACTICES
HIGHLIGHTED BY THAT NATIONAL
ORGANIZATION.
>> OKAY, VERY GOOD.
THANK YOU.
THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME AS A COSPONSOR RAISE
YOUR HAND.
>> FOUR COUNCIL MEMBER.
>> THANK YOU.
VERY GOOD.
ALL RIGHT 32.
>> ITEM 32 IS STATEMENT OF
LEGISLATIVE INTENT, SDOT25A1.
A REQUEST THAT SDOT AND CVO
REPORT ON THE SCHEDULE AND
STATUS OF THIRD PARTY FUNDING
DISCUSSIONS REGARDING SOUND
TRANSIT LIGHT RAIL PROJECT.
>> I THINK THIS IS COUNCIL
MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> YES, THIS IS A NEW PROPOSAL
THAT WAS NOT SUBMITTED DURING
THE PREVIOUS ROUND.
IT WAS IN RESPONSE TO
CONSTITUENT QUESTIONS I'VE
RECEIVED QUESTIONING, ASKING
WHAT'S HAPPENING WITH THIRD
PARTY FUNDING FOR SOUND TRANSIT
LIGHT RAIL.
THAT WILL BENEFIT FOLKS ALL
ALONG SOUND TRANSIT THREE.
THE SLIDE PROPOSES THAT SDOT
LOOK AT THIRD PARTY AND OTHER
POTENTIAL FUNDING PARTNERS AND
SUMMARIZING DISCUSSIONS.
THE PROPOSED REPLY DATE IS JULY
1st IN ADVANCE OF THE RELIEF.
BECAUSE YOU IDENTIFIED THAT
DATE BECAUSE OF THE FACT THAT
WE'RE GOING TO WANT TO HAVE A
PRETTY GOOD SENSE OF WHAT WE'RE
LOOKING AT.
AS IT RELATES TO THIRD PARTY
FUNDING OPPORTUNITIES BY THE
TIME THE FINAL EIS IS OUT.
SO HAVING A SENSE OF WHERE WE
MIGHT BE WITH A JULY 1st REPLY
DATE SEEMS PRUDENT.
>> THOSE OF YOU WHO WOULD LIKE
TO ADD YOUR NAME AS COSPONSORS
RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> THREE COUNCIL MEMBER.
>> THANK YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT ITEM 33.
>> COUNCIL CENTRAL STAFF.
>> I APOLOGIZE.
BUT IF I COULD MAKE A REALLY
QUICKLY.
I STEPPED OUT FOR A PHONE CALL
AND I MISSED THAT.
WE WERE ASKING FOR A LITTLE
OVER $700,000 FOR THIS.
IT WOULD HAVE MAINTAINED THE
EXISTING STAFF PERSON WHO
OVERSEES THE EQUITY AGENDA WHO
OVERSEES THE TRANSPORTATION
PLUS PROVIDED RESOURCES FOR
STRATEGICALLY IMPLEMENTING THAT
AGENDA.
THAT'S THE PERSON WHO
COORDINATES WITH THE EQUITY
AGENDA TASK FORCE.
THEY WILL HAVE RECOMMENDATIONS
THIS SPRING AND THE IDEA WOULD
BE TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE THE
STAFF TO CONTINUE TO WORK WITH
THEM ON STRATEGICALLY
IMPLEMENTING THOSE AND HAVE
SOME FUNDING ALTHOUGH REDUCE
THE AMOUNT OF FUNDING TO HELP
FUND US.
>> ALL RIGHT, VERY GOOD.
THANK YOU.
>> AND I APOLOGIZE.
>> OKAY.
COUNCILMAN STOOD IN YOUR
STEADWELL.
>> MA'AM CHAIR IS MOVING ON TO
SPD THIS IS A PROVISOR, THE
MAYOR'S BUDGET WOULD ADD
484,000 TO PAY FOR EMPHASIS
PATROLS.
THIS WOULD RESTRICT FUNDING
PATROLS ONLY IN THE UNIVERSITY
DISTRICT THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER
PACHECO'S ITEMS.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER JUAREZ HAS
SOME SPEAKING ADDITIONS FOR US.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER PACHECO
WANTED ME TO READ THIS INTO
RECORD.
HE HAD TO STEP OUT EARLY THIS
AFTERNOON.
WHEN THE MAYOR ANNOUNCED
PATROLS.
AT MANY OF THE NEIGHBORHOODS
THAT WERE INCLUDED AND COUNCIL
MEMBER PA -- PACHECO DID NOT
EMPHASIZE THAT THE MAYOR DID
NOT CALL FOR A SPECIFIC.
CITY DEPARTMENT INVOLVEMENT IN
THESE NEIGHBORHOODS TO
COMPLIMENT THE PATROLS.
THIS ACTION WILL PROVIDE
100,000 OF THE 848,000 OF
EMPHASIS PATROL FUNDING IN THE
PROPOSED BUDGET TO GO
SPECIFICALLY TO PATROLS IN THE
U DISTRICT.
>> THANK YOU.
THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME TO COUNCIL MEMBER
PACHECO'S REVISAL RAISE YOUR
HAND.
THANK YOU.
OKAY ITEM 34 AND THIS IS
COUNCIL MEMBER GONZALEZ?
ITEM34 IS A PROVISAL ON POLICE
INVESTIGATIONS RELATED TO SEX
WORK.

COUNCIL MEMBER HER BOLD AND
IT'S INTENT FOR A CITY WIDE
APPROACH TO COLLECT AND REPORT
THE THEFT, DAMAGE AND VANDALISM
OF CITY ASSETS INCLUDING THEFT
OF COOPER WIRE AND THE DAMAGE
CAUSED TO CITY INFRASTRUCTURE
DURING COOPER WIRE THEFT.
>> NOTHING MORE TO ADD.
I SORT OF PREVIEWED THIS DURING
THE LAST BUDGET ROUND AND THE
ONE THAT FOLLOWS.
WE DID NOT HAVE A SLIDE
PROPOSED YET AT THAT POINT.
BUT WE TALKED ABOUT IT AT QUITE
SOME LENGTH.
>> OKAY.
ANY OTHER COMMENTS?
THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME TO THIS PROVISAL ADD
YOUR NAME.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>>> REQUESTING THAT SPD REPORT
ON COMPLIANCE WITH COOPER WIRE
LAWS.
IT'S A STATEMENT OF LEGISLATIVE
INTENT THAT WOULD REQUIRE THAT
SPD CHECK WITH RECYCLING
BUSINESSES TO MAKE SURE THAT
THEY ARE FOLLOWING STATE LAW
ABOUT ACCEPTING RECYCLED
METALS.
>> OKAY.
>> AND IT'S BROUGHT BY COUNCIL
MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> SINCE OUR LAST BUDGET
DISCUSS WHERE I APPROVED THIS
ITEM I'M HEARING FROM FOLKS IN
THE RECYCLED METALS INDUSTRY.
ABOUT THEIR EFFORTS IN THIS
AREA.
SO THE WORD IS OUT THAT THE
CITY IS INTERESTED IN DOING
THIS WORK.
AND I LOOK FORWARD TO DIVING IN
MORE AFTER PASSAGE OF THE
BUDGET.
>> GREAT.
THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME TO THIS, RAISE YOUR
HAND.
AS A COSPONSOR.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>> GOOD, THANK YOU.
>> ALL RIGHT NEXT ITEM.
>> ITEM NUMBER 37 IS REQUESTING
THAT SPD REPORT ON THE
COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICER
PROGRAM AS COUNCIL MEMBERS ARE
AWARE THERE WAS AN ADD OF 12
COMMUNITY SERVICE OFFICERS IN
THE 2019 BUDGET AND ANOTHER ADD
IN THE 2020 BUDGET OF SIX MORE

RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>> THANK YOU.
ITEM 38.
>> ITEM 38 IS ANOTHER SLIDE FOR
SPD IT WOULD REQUEST THAT THE
DEPARTMENT SUBMIT AN
IMPLEMENTATION REPORT ON THE
INITIAL POSITIVE RESULTS OF
THEIR EFFORTS TO
OPERATIONALLIZE 12
RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE FUNDED
AS PART OF THE RECRUITMENT
INITIATIVE THAT WAS TALKED
ABOUT THIS MORNING AND IS
FUNDED IN THE AMOUNT OF 1.6
MILLION REDUCED A LITTLE IN THE
CHAIR'S BUDGET TO ABOUT 1.2
MILLION.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER GONZALEZ.
>> NOTHING MORE TO ADD.
>> THOSE WHO WANT TO ADD YOUR
NAME AS COSPONSORS RAISE YOUR
HAND.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>> GOOD.
ITEM 39.
>> ANOTHER STATEMENT OF
LEGISLATIVE INTENT FOR SPD.
THIS IS A STATEMENT OF
LEGISLATIVE INTENT THAT WAS
ADOPTED LAST YEAR.
IT REQUIRES THAT IN THE THIRD
WEEK OF EACH MONTH THE
DEPARTMENT PROVIDE DATA ON
HIRING SEPARATIONS AND CENSUS
OF PRECINCT OFFICERS SHOWING
HOW OFFICERS ARE DISTRIBUTED
THROUGHUT THE PRECINCT AND
ASSIGNED TO PATROL.
THIS WOULD KEEP PROVISAL FROM

NAME AS A COSPONSOR RAISE YOUR
HAND.

>> BRYAN GOOD NIGHT, COUNCIL
CENTRAL STAFF.
ITEM 40 IS SPU281.
IT'S A INTENT THAT SEATTLE
UTILITIES AND SEATTLE IT LOOK
INTO USING THE FIBEROPTIC
CABLES FOR BROAD BAND CABLE.
THE REQUEST BE PRESENTED TO THE
COUNCIL.
THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> WOULD YOU DESCRIBE HOW THIS
IS DIFFERENT FROM YOUR INITIAL
REQUEST.
OR IS IT THE SAME THING?
>> I HAVE LOST TRACK OF THAT.
>> IT'S THE SAME REQUEST AS
WHAT WAS PRESENTED EARLIER.
>> AS ITEM 40.
>> OKAY., NOTHING TO ADD.
>> NOTHING TO ADD IT'S THE
SAME REQUEST.
>> THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME.
RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> THREE COSPONSORS.
>> ITEM 41,.
>> ITEM 41 IS SBU481.
THIS WOULD ADD 79,702 TO FUND A
PILOT PROGRAM THAT PROVIDES
RVs.
THIS WOULD MAKE AN EQUIVALENT
REDUCTION.
IT'S PROPOSED THAT THE CITY
GIVE A PUMP OUT EVENT.
AND THEN LASTLY ONE NUANCE
RELATIVE TO OTHER RV RELATED
PROGRAMS IS THAT GIVEN THAT THE
FUNDING SOURCE IS THE DRAINAGE
AN WATER FUND PUMP OUT SERVICES
WOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO BE
PROVIDED IN ENVIRONMENTALLY
AREAS.
AND THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER
HERBOLD.
>> MANY OF YOU MAY HAVE READ
THE PIECE AUTHORED FROM THE
THEY WROTE AN ARTICLE THAT WAS
PUBLISHED IN THE TIMES IN LATE
OCTOBER THAT TALKED ABOUT
POSSIBLE WATERWAY CONTAMINATION
THAT RV DUMPS IMPOSES.
AND WE KNOW FROM INFORMATION
THAT WE RECENTLY RECEIVED THE
ISSUE DOES ACTUALLY POSE A VERY
SERIOUS THREAT TO THE
ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION GAINS
THAT SEATTLE PUBLIC UTILITIES
HAS BEEN MAKING.
THE UTILITY HAS SPENT OVER $66
MILLION OVER THE LAST 10 YEARS
ON REDUCING THE HARMFUL EFFECTS
OF STORM WATER RUN OFF AND
PROTECTING OUR WATER WAYS AND
WE NEED TO ENSURE THAT OUR
CONTINUED PROGRESS OF THESE
EFFORTS.
WE NEED TO ENSURE OUR CONTINUED
PROGRESS OF THESE EFFORTS SO
WE'RE NOT TAKING TWO STEPS
FORWARD AND ONE BACK.
CONDUCTED TWO FIELD TESTS EARLY
THIS YEAR WHERE SPD PROVIDED
MOBILE PUMP OUT SERVICES.
WE WILL BE ABLE TO USE THE
DRAINAGE AND WASTE WATER FUND
TO DO THIS WORK AS LONG AS WE
FOCUSED IT ON AREAS WHERE
ENVIRONMENTALLY CRITICAL AREAS.
AND YEAH, WE HAVE A GOOD
ESTIMATE OF HOW OFTEN WE COULD
DO THIS AND AGAIN, AS I'VE
ELUDED TO ON A COUPLE OF OTHER
ITEMS, WE'RE GOING TO BE SEEING
MORE INFORMATION COMING OUT
ABOUT THE CRITICAL NATURE OF
THIS ISSUE IN THE UPCOMING
WEEKS.
>> I KNOW WHEN YOU AND I WERE
TALKING ABOUT THE MOBILE PILOTS
THAT I THOUGHT THERE WAS MONEY
INCLUDED, IS IT JUST ADDING TO
THAT.
>> THE MOBILE ARE STAND ALONE
FACILITIES.
WE LOOK INTO WHETHER OR NOT WE
COULD SORT OF MAYBE NOT THOSE
MOBILE HAD THE FACILITY TO DO
THAT WORK.
>> THE EQUIPMENT WAS THE ISSUE
CORRECT.
>> CORRECT.
AND THE EQUIPMENT THAT SBD IS
CURRENTLY USING IS NOT THEIRS.
IT HAS THIS CAPABILITY.
>> CAN YOU TELL ME THE MONEY
SOURCE THAT YOU'RE TALKING
ABOUT TO FROM SPU IS THIS
SOMETHING THAT SPU HAVE YOU
TALKED WITH THEM ABOUT IT.
HAVE THEY CONQUERED WE HAVE DO
THIS.
>> THEY HAVE CONCURRED WE CAN
DO THIS.
>> ANY OTHER COMMENTS.
>> I WOULD ADD IF I CAN I WAS
ASTONISHED TO LEARN THAT IN
TERMS OF IF YOU HAVE A
FUNCTIONAL RV THERE AREN'T I
DON'T BELIEVE THERE ARE ANY
PLACES WITHIN THE CITY OF
SEATTLE WHERE YOU CAN
APPROPRIATELY TAKE CARE OF
WASTE FROM YOUR RV.
SO MOST PEOPLE HAVE TO TRAVEL
OUTSIDE OF THE CITY LIMITS TO
ADDRESS, TO --
>> IS IT KENT?
IS THE CLOSEST ONE?
BECAUSE COUNCIL MEMBER
GONZALEZ.
>> I'M NOT SURE EXACTLY WHERE.
IT MIGHT, BURIEN MIGHT BE THE
CLOSEST.
IN THE SOUTH END I'M NOT SURE
ABOUT THE NORTH END.
I WAS PRETTY SURPRISED THIS
SERVICE SETTING ASIDE THE
POPULATION THAT WE'RE FOCUSING
ON THROUGH THIS PARTICULAR
REQUEST BEING ADVANCED BY
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD DOESN'T
EXIST IN THE CITY.
AND SO, SO, BUT YET WE CONTINUE
TO HEAR FROM FOLKS IN
NEIGHBORHOODS ABOUT THE IMPACTS
OF THIS ISSUE OF RUN OFF AND
THIS WASTE BEING SPILLED ON TO
THE STREET.
AND IN SOME CASES IT'S BECAUSE
THE RV IS NOT FUNCTIONAL IN
OTHER CASES IT COULD BE THAT
IT'S FUNCTIONAL BUT IT COSTS
MONEY TO GET YOUR RV FROM
SEATTLE TO SOME WHERE OUTSIDE
OF THE CITY LIMITS TO ADDRESS
WHAT YOU WOULD OTHERWISE BE
WILLING TO ADDER.
I - - T O A DDRESS.
THIS IS A HUGE GAP AND I WAS
SURPRISED TO LEARN THIS DOES
NOT EXIST WITHIN OUR CITY.
>> I APPRECIATE YOU RAISING
THAT BECAUSE I KNOW THEY'RE
REQUIRED TO HAVE PUMP OUTS
AVAILABLE.
SO YOU'RE DEALING WITH, THAT
AREN'T GOING TO HAVE
NECESSARILY ANY WHERE NEAR AS
MUCH HOLDING CAPACITY IN RV.
I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT FOR US
TO LOOK AT THIS PLUS PROVIDE
THE ADDITIONAL MONEY THAT
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD IS
RECOMMENDING HERE.
THIS IS ITEM 41 IF YOU WOULD
LIKE TO ADD YOUR NAME AS A
COSPONSOR RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>> GREAT.
ITEM FOUR #. -- ITEM 42 AND
THIS IS COUNCIL MEMBER
GONZALEZ.
>> FOR TRANSPORTATION NETWORK
COMPANIES, THE FIRST ONE IS
TMZDRC104A1.
AND IT PROPOSES TO AMEND
COUNCIL BILL 119686 VERSION D2
ON DIRECTORS RULES AND THE
MAKING PROCESS AND PASS THT
COUNCIL AS AMENDED.
THIS IS REFERRING TO THE TMZ
DRIVER DEACTIVATION RIGHTS
ORDNANCE WHICH ESTABLISHES
RIGHTS AGAINST UNWANTED
DEACTIVATION, SETS UP A PANEL
ARBITRATION PROCEEDING AND ALSO
A DRIVER RESOLUTION CENTER.
THIS PARTICULAR BUDGET ACTION
WOULD REQUIRE THE OFFICE OF
LABOR STANDARDS DIRECTOR TO
ISSUE RULES ON PASSENGER AND
SAFETY CONCERNS FOR
DEACTIVATIONS THAT INCLUDE
ALLEGATIONS OF SEXUAL ASSAULT.
IN THE AMENDMENT WOULD ALSO
REQUIRE THE DIRECTOR TO INCLUDE
REPRESENTATIVES OF LOCAL SEXUAL
ASSAULT RECOMMENDATIONS IN THE
LAW MAKING PROCESS.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD DO
YOU WANT TO SPEAK.
>> IT'S MINE.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER GONZALEZ.
>> THIS WAS BROUGHT TO US BY
THE KING COUNTY SEXUAL ASSAULT
RESOURCE CENTER.
THEY HAVE POINTED OUT THERE ARE
A NUMBER OF DEACTIVATIONS INTO
ACCUSATIONS OF SEXUAL ASSAULTS.
AS A RESULT, THEY FEEL THAT IT
WOULD BE APPROPRIATE AND I
AGREE FOR THEM TO HAVE A TABLE
A SEAT AT THE TABLE DURING RULE
MAKING AND TO ALSO ENSURE THAT
THE ARBITRATION PANEL IS ALSO
ENVISIONED IN THE LEGISLATION
AND BE PREPARED AND TRAINED TO
ENGAGE WITH VICTIMS FROM A
TRAUMA INFORMED PERSPECTIVE IN
THE EVENT THAT THE DEACTIVATION
IS A RESULT OF AN ACCUSATION OF
SEXUAL ASSAULT.
THIS DOESN'T MODIFY THE
TAXATION MODEL.
DOESN'T MODIFY HOW DOLLARS ARE
SPENT BUT DOES REQUIRE A
GREATER DEGREE OF INCLUSIVETY
IN TERMS OF STAKE HOLDERS WHO
MAY BE MAKING OTHERWISE
LEGITIMATE ALLEGATIONS PENDING
THE ARBITRATION PROCEEDING.
>> OKAY.
VERY GOOD.
COMMENTS IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO
ADD YOUR NAME AS A COSPONSOR
RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> FOUR COSPONSORS.
>> THANK YOU GOOD.
ITEM 43 AND 44 WE'RE IN THE
HOME STRETCH.
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD I THINK
YOU HAVE THE LAST TWO.
>> OKAY.
>> ITEM 43 ON THE AGENDA IS
COUNCIL BUDGET ACTION
TNCSPN106C1 WHICH WOULD
SUBSTITUTE RESOLUTION 34914 AND
ADOPT A RESOLUTION AS AMENDED.
VERY BRIEFLY AS YOU RECALL THE
CHAIR'S BALANCING BUDGET
INCLUDES BUDGET ACTION,
TMZSPM106C1.
AND ADOPT THE RESOLUTION.
THAT SUBSTITUTE INCLUDE SEVERAL
CHANGES INCLUDING A LIST A
CHANGE TO THE LIST OF SPECIFIED
TRANSPORTATION AND TRANSIT
INVESTMENTS THAT ARE ELIGIBLE
TO BE FUNDED WITH TMZ TAX
REVENUES.
IF FOLLOWING ARE INCLUDED IN
THE TRANSIT INVESTMENTS.
THIS CENTER CITY STREETCAR
CONNECTOR.
THE PURCHASE OF TRANSIT
SERVICE, ADDITIONAL SUPPORT FOR
SOUND TRANSIT WEST SEATTLE AND
LINK EXTENSIONS AND A
TRANSPORTATION ASSISTANCE
VOUCHER PROGRAM.
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD IS
PROPOSING COUNCIL BUDGET ACTION
TNCSPM1061 WHICH WOULD
SUBSTITUTE A DIFFERENT VERSION
OF THE RESOLUTION.
THE HERBOLD'S VERSION MAKES ALL
OF THE SAME CHANGES.
BUT CHANGES THE PURCHASE OF
TRANSIT SERVICE TO THE PURCHASE
OF KING COUNTY METRO SERVICE
AND ALL REMAIN THE SAME.
>> COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD.
>> NOTHING TO ADD.
>> IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO ADD
YOUR NAME AS A COSPONSOR PLEASE
RAISE YOUR HAND.
>> IT DOESN'T CUT ANYTHING IT
JUST ADDS KING COUNTY METRO TO
THE OTHER OPTIONS.
>> MOVING ON TO THE NEXT ITEM.
>> AGENDA ITEM 44 IS SBATNZ TAX
C1 WHICH SUBSTITUTIONS VERSION
C4 AND PASSES THE COUNCIL VOTE.
THIS MAKES A SIMILAR CHANGE TO
THE TAX THE LEGISLATION WHICH
IMPLEMENTS THE TNZ TAX AND
CHANGES THE PURCHASE OF TRANSIT
SERVICE TO THE PURCHASE OF KING
COUNTY METRO BUS SERVICE AS AN
ELIGIBLE USE FOR THE TNZ TAX
REVENUES.
>> OKAY.
VERY GOOD.
COUNCIL MEMBER HERBOLD DO YOU
WANT TO ADD ANYTHING.
>> NOTHING TO ADD.
>> IF YOU WANT TO ADD YOUR NAME
AS A COSPONSOR PLEASE RAISE
YOUR HAND.
>> TWO COSPONSORS.
>> THANK YOU.
>> WELL CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU.
WE'VE GOT TON THE END OF ALL 44
ITEMS AND WE'RE GOING TO RESUME
PUBLIC COMMENT.
AND SO I'M GOING TO ASK, I
DON'T THINK THAT YOU WERE HERE
THIS MORNING BUT WE'LL HAVE ONE
MINUTE EACH AND THEN IF THERE'S
GROUPS THAT ARE SPEAKING
TOGETHER, NOT BUNCHING UP AND
COMING UP AS GROUPS MULTIPLE
TIMES, WE CAN MAKE A DECISION
ABOUT THAT TIME.
SO I'M GOING TO GO BACK TO THE
FIRST PAGES THIS MORNING
BECAUSE THERE WERE A NUMBER OF
PEOPLE HERE WHO SIGNED UP AND
THEN LEFT NOT REALIZING WE
WERE GOING TO GIVE TIME.
SO I'M GOING TO INVITE CHARLIE,
DEBBY AND COLLEEN IF YOU'RE
HERE TO SPEAK.
THANK YOU FOR COMING BACK.
>> SORRY I MISSED YOU THIS
MORNING BUT I'M GLAD TO BE
BACK.
I'M CHARLIE AND I'M GOING TO
SPEAK ON CITY COUNCIL
MOSQUEDA'S PROPOSAL.
PARTOVER WHAT MAKES SEATTLE A
GREAT PLACE TO LIVE AND WORK IS
OUR WORK STANDARD SOME OF THE
BEST IN THE COUNTRY.
BUT THOSE STANDARDS ARE ONLY AS
GOOD AS WE ARE ABLE TO ENFORCE
THEM AND THIS MONEY WE BELIEVE
WOULD GO SO FAR IN HELPING
EDUCATE WORKERS SO THAT THEY
KNOW THEIR RIGHTS ON THE JOB.
SO WE'RE SUPPORTING THIS.
WE THINK THIS IS ONE OF THE
BEST WAYS THAT WE CAN GIVE
POWER BACK TO THE PEOPLE WHO
NEED IT MOST WHICH ARE WORKING
PEOPLE IN OUR CITY.
SO PLEASE SUPPORT THIS
AMENDMENT.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU CHARLIE FOR
COMING.
DO WE HAVE DEBBY AND COLLEEN
HERE AS WELL?
NOT SEEING THEM, WE'RE GOING TO
CONTINUE WHERE I LEFT OFF.
AND I THINK IT WAS ERIC DAVIS.
AND THEN JOSH CASTLE.
DO I SEE JOSH?
I KNOW HE WAS HERE THIS
MORNING.
>> CAN I SPEAK.
>> ARE YOU SIGNED UP?
>> YES.
>> AND WHO ARE YOU ON THE CUE.
>> I'M ON THE SECOND PAGE.
>> DO YOU REMEMBER YOUR NUMBER?
>> UNFORTUNATELY I DON'T.
>> WHAT IS YOUR NAME?
>> TERESA HOLMAN.
>> I WILL FIND YOU.
PLEASE GO AHEAD.
OKAY.
>> WE JUST WANT TO THANK YOU
FOR YOUR SUPPORT ESPECIALLY IN
THE FUNDING OF OUR TINY HOUSE
VILLAGES MOBILE PIT SPOTS.
WHAT I WANTED TO TELL YOU IS I
HAVE WORKED IN PERMANENT
SUPPORTING HOUSING FOR FOUR
YEARS AND I NOW MANAGE A TINY
HOUSE VILLAGE FOR WOMEN AND,
I'M SURPRISED I'M A LITTLE
NERVOUS.
AND I JUST WANTED TO SAY THAT
HAVING SEEN THE OTHER SIDE,
TINY HOUSE VILLAGES REALLY SET
THE RESIDENTS UP FOR SUCCESS
ONCE THEY TRANSITION AND ONE OF
THE THINGS WE'RE DOING IS
HAVING THE WOMEN MONTHLY
ARTICULATE THE VISION FOR THEIR
FUTURE AND SET A GOAL AND THEN
FOR EVERY TIME THEY HIT THAT
GOAL, THEY'RE STRINGING
TOGETHER THE SUCCESSES THAT
BUILD THEIR SELF-ESTEEM, BUILD
THEIR CONFIDENCE AND SET THEM
UP FOR SUCCESS WHEN THEY
TRANSITION.
SO WE'RE HERE FOR TINY HOUSE
FUNDING.
>> THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR
COMING T ERESA.
IT LOOKS LIKE DAVE KAVANAUGH.
CAN YOU RAISE YOUR HAND.
SO WE'VE GOT, IT LOOKS LIKE A
GROUP FROM A CWU SCHOOL SOCIAL
WORK.
OKAY NOT HERE.
VIOLET, IS THERE A VIOLET HERE.
HOLLY WILLIAMS ABOUT YOUTH
CARE.
PEGGY, I KNOW YOU'RE HERE.
SO PEGGY, BRUCE AND ELIANA.
I DON'T SEE ELIANA.
>> NO SHE HAD TO LEAVE.
I THINK BRUCE HAD TO GO.
>> GO AHEAD PEGGY.
>> GOOD AFTERNOON COUNCIL
MEMBERS MY NAME IS PEGGY
HOATES.
SEATTLE NEEDS MORE TINY HOUSE
VILLAGES NOT JUST ONE OR TWO.
PLEASE KEEP THE PROVISOR THAT
WILL ALLOW THE MONEY THAT WILL
BE USED TO CLOSE NICKELSVILLE
INTO FUNDING FOR TINY HOUSE
VILLAGES.
BY THE WAY, NICKELSVILLE NORTH
RESIDENTS ARE KEEPING THEIR
VILLAGE OPEN THIS YEAR.
DESPITE HSAs DESIRE TO CLOSE IT
ON DECEMBER 31st.
TERRIBLE AND UNTRUTH THINGS ARE
BEING SAID ABOUT NICKELSVILLE
NORTH GATE.
PLEASE MEET WITH NICKELSVILLE
BEFORE THE BUDGET VOTE.
YOU NEED TO HEAR FROM THE
PEOPLE AFFECTED.
CONTINUING TO PROMOTE ONE
ORGANIZATION'S MONOPOLY TO
OPERATE TINY HOUSE VILLAGES
WOULD BE A FISCAL MISTAKE AND
NOT BEST PRACTICE.
TINY HOUSE VILLAGES NEED TO BE
VARIED TO SUIT THE NEED A
VARIETY OF HOMELESS PEOPLE.
GRASS ROOTS ORGANIZATIONS CAN
OPERATE WITH THE SAME SERVICES
AT HALF THE PRICE AND PROVIDE
EMPOWERING SELF-MANAGEMENT.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU PEGGY.
I JUST MAY HAVE MISSED ERIC.
DOUG, ERIC AND DAN KAVANAUGH.
OKAY GOOD COME ON UP.
I APOLOGIZE FOR MISSING YOU.
>> MY NAME IS ERIC LUSKUS.
I CURRENTLY AM HOMELESS AND
STAY IN ST. LUKE'S CHURCH IN
BALLARD.
WE HAVE AN ENORMOUS NEED FOR
TINY HOUSES MANAGED BY SHER WHO
HAS PROVIDED SHELTER AND
HOMELESS SHELTERS FOR HOMELESS
PEOPLE FOR OVER 30 YEARS.
MY SECOND PLAN I WANT TO MAKE
IS PLEASE DO NOT CLOSE THE
NORTH LAKE AND NICKELSVILLE.
THIS IS UNFAIR AND SHAMEFUL
PROPOSED CLOSURE.
THIS IS ABOUT THE CITY'S
REFUSAL FOR RESPONSIBILITY.
PLEASE SUPPORT SHER AND
NICKELSVILLE IN MANAGING SOME
OF THE TINY HOUSES THAT IT
DESPERATELY NEEDED HERE IN
SEATTLE.
AND LASTLY, PLEASE MEET WITH
SHER TO ADDRESS THESE REQUESTS
AND NEEDS.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> THANK YOU.
>> SO DEBBY, I KNOW JOSH YOU
SPOKE EARLIER AND WE SKIPPED
DEBBY I CALLED HER A COUPLE OF
TIMES NOW.
DEBBY AND COLLEEN.
DEBBY IF YOU WANT TO COME UP
AND THEN WE'VE GOT BRUCE,
ELIANA IF SHE'S BACK IN.
AND BARBARA FINNEY.
HI.
>> HI MY NAME IS DEBBY YORK AND
I'M A HEALTH CARE WORKER AND A
MEMBER OF SBI1775.
I'M HERE TO ASK SUPPORT FOR
OUTREACH FUNDING FOR THE OFFICE
OF LABOR STANDARDS.
SEATTLE HAS LED THE WAY IN
PROTECTING VULNERABLE WORKERS
INCLUDING PASSING A DOMESTIC
WORKERS BILL OF RIGHTS.
WHICH PROTECTING NANNIES AND
HOUSE CLEANERS AND HOME CARE
WORKERS LIKE MYSELF.
BUT WE KNOW THAT THOSE LAWS ARE
ONLY GOOD IF THE WORKERS KNOW
ABOUT THEIR RIGHTS.
SO, THAT WE KNOW THAT IT TAKES
A LOT OF WORK TO EDUCATE EVERY
ONE ABOUT THEIR RIGHTS AND THE
BEST WAY TO DO THAT IS BY
FUNDING ORGANIZATIONS THAT CAN
REACH WORKERS IN THEIR
COMMUNITIES AND IN THEIR OWN
LANGUAGE.
AFTER SEATTLE PASSED THE
DOMESTIC WORKERS BILL OF RIGHTS
AND A LAW PROTECTING HOTEL
WORKERS, FUNDING FOR OUTREACH
HASN'T BEEN INCREASED.
SO I URGE YOU TO SUPPORT
ADDITIONAL FUNDING FOR OUTREACH
THIS YEAR.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU VERY MUCH, DEBBY.
JOSH IS COLLEEN HERE.
>> SHE WAS AND THEN SHE HAD TO
GO.
>> OKAY WE'RE GOING TO MOVE ON
TO BRUCE, ELIANA I DON'T SEE
AND BARBARA FINNEY.
IS BRUCE HERE, BRUCE GOGLE.
>> HE HAD TO LEAVE.
>> ELIANA IS NOT HERE.
BARBARA FINNEY.
>> NO.
>> SEAN BUTTERFIELD.
>> NO.
>> IDA GENE, I DON'T SEE IDA
GENE HERE EITHER.
IT LOOKS LIKE ELLEN MOTIFF
MAYBE.
VERY WELL I'M LOOKING FOR WHO
IS COMING AFTER YOU.
STEVE YOU'RE BACK UP AFTER
THIS.
AND BRANDON FISHER.
THANK YOU.
PLEASE GO AHEAD.
>> SEATTLE CITY COUNCIL WE'RE
NOT JUST THE HOMELESS OR DO YOU
WANT TO BE KNOWN AS A CITY THAT
IF PEOPLE HAVE OPPORTUNITY TO
HAVE A PLACE TO STAY.
WHAT SEATTLE NEEDS THE NATION
IN IS THE MURDER OF INDIGENOUS
WOMEN.
ARE YOU GETTING FUNDED FOR
THAT.
>> THANK YOU.
SO STEVE.
>> STEVE THEN BRANDON, NO
BRANDON HAS ALREADY SPOKEN
EARLIER.
AND DAVID SEWEL DID AS WELL AND
BRANDON SMITH AND LOOKS LIKE
CHRISTOPHER YOON.
>> THIS PROJECT REFLECTING YOUR
VALUES AND I THINK IT'S A
PROBLEM.
I HEAR NOTHING ABOUT THE NORTH
PRECINCT IN IT.
YOU KNOW, WE DIDN'T ACCEPT AS A
MATTER OF FACT, MOST OF THE
CITY DID NOT ACCEPT THE
FORTRESS, THE BUNKER WHATEVER
YOU WANT TO CALL IT.
BUT THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS IN
THE NORTH END.
I PROPOSE A RADICAL SOLUTION.
LET'S DO SOMETHING BEFORE WE
WAIT FOR THE NEXT BIG PROPOSAL
THAT IS GOING TO BE TAKE IT OR
LEAVE IT.
THE PROBLEM EXISTS WHETHER IT'S
TAKE IT OR LEAVE IT OR NOT.
I'M ALSO GOING TO SUGGEST IN
THIS MEASLY MINUTE BECAUSE I
KNOW THAT PUBLIC TESTIMONY IS
TOO STRONG TO BE TAKEN IN LARGE
DOZES, THAT LET'S TAKE A LOOK
AT BICYCLES AND VEHICLES ON A
FEE AGAIN.
IT'S SOMETHING THAT THE CITY
CAN USE.
WE HAVEN'T GOTTEN TO WHAT YOU
HAVEN'T DONE ON GENTRIFICATION.
YOU'VE MADE IT SEW -- YOU'VE
MADE IT SO BAD IN THIS CITY.
>> THANK YOU STEVE.
>>> GOOD AFTERNOON CITY COUNCIL
MY NAME IS SEAN SMITH.
I'M THE ELECTED EXTERNAL
AFFAIRS COORDINATOR FOR FELLOW
VILLAGE.
I WANT TO FIRST THANK COUNCIL
MEMBER GONZALEZ FOR AGREEING TO
MEET WITH US.
BAGSHAW, PA PACHECO FOR
MEETING WITH US.
I'M ASKING THE REST OF YOU TO
MEET WITH US BEFORE ANY
DECISION IS MADE ABOUT TINY
HOUSE VILLAGES.
TO THE MAYOR, I WANT TO SAY.
TWO YEARS AGO DURING YOUR
REELECTION YOU AGREED TO MEET
WITH US FACE TO FACE, YOU NEVER
DID SO.
NOW YOU'RE TRYING TO CUT OUR
THROAT.
IF YOU WANT TO CUT OUR THROAT
COME AND DO IT IN PERSON.
WE'RE NOT CLOSING NORTH LAKE
WE'RE GOING TO HOLD ON, THANK
YOU THANK YOU SHAWN.
CHRISTOPHER YUN.
>> IS IT SUN OR IS IT ANOTHER
CHRISTOPHER YOON BECAUSE MY
HANDWRITING IS AWFUL.
>> IT'S YOU.
>> I'M A TEAM MEMBER OF
SAMARITAN, I JUST WANTED TO
ANSWER SOME QUESTIONS OR
CONCERNS RAISED EARLIER ABOUT
THE USE OF BEACONS.
AND CURRENTLY CASE MANAGERS IN
THE CITY OFFER BEACONS TO
CLIENTS WHO ARE ALREADY ON
THEIR CASE LOAD.
MEETING WITH ON A CONSISTENT
BASIS ONLY.
THAT MEANS THERE'S NO CASE
MANAGEMENT BUT THE PERSON
COMING IN FOR THE MONTHLY
VISITS AND THE PERSON WHO'S ON
THEIR CASE LOAD ARE THE SAME
PERSON.
SO, YOU KNOW CASE MANAGERS ARE
NEVER ASKED TO DO MONTHLY
VISITS WITH ANYONE WHO THEY
AREN'T HOPING TO CONNECT WITH.
AND BECAUSE OF THIS CASE
MANAGERS HAVE SHARED THAT IT'S
BEEN A HELPFUL RESOURCE IN
CONNECTING WITH PEOPLE WHO THEY
OTHERWISE MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO
CONNECT WITH.
IF PEOPLE HAVE FUNDS ON THEIR
SMART WALLETS AND THEY DON'T
ATTEND THEIR VISIT THEIR FUNDS
DON'T LEAVE THEIR BEACONS.
WE'RE TRYING TO EMPOWER THEM TO
MAKE CHANGES FOR THEMSELVES.
SO THEIR FUNDS ARE JUST LEFT IN
THEIR BEACON UNTIL THEY COME TO
THEIR MEETING.
50% OF PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO
CONNECT WITH A CASE MANAGER,
THAT'S 54% OF PEOPLE WHO WANT
TO ATTEND THEIR LIFE CARE
VISITS.
EVERYONE WHO WANTS TO ATTEND
THEIR LIFE CARE VISITS HAS THE
ABILITY TO DO SO.
>> CHRISTOPHER I'M GOING TO
HAVE TO ASK YOU TO STOP.
BUT YOU'RE WELCOMED AND I
INVITE YOU TO CONTACT MY OFFICE
SO I HAVE MORE INFORMATION.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
>> THANK YOU.
BRYAN THEN AFTER BRYAN IT'S
SALLY.
>> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME
AGAIN.
AND I'M BECOMING QUITE FAMILIAR
HERE.
WHAT I WOULD LIKE TO TALK ABOUT
TODAY IS THE NAVIGATION TEAM.
WE ALL KNOW OF THE PROBLEMS
THAT WHAT BROUGHT ME HERE.
SO THE NAVIGATION TEAM'S
HIGHEST SUCCESS WAS GUIDING ME
TO YOU.
WE KNOW THAT THE PROBLEMS EXIST
DOWN THERE WITH THE THEFT AND
RACKETEERING THAT TAKES PLACE
WITH COMPASS HOUSING ALLIANCE
DUE TO THE NATION THAT I STILL
HAVEN'T GOTTEN MY MONEY BACK.
WHICH LEAD TO THE
ACCOUNTABILITY.
HERE WE HAVE A NONPROFIT
STEALING MY MONEY, MY PRIDE, MY
DIGNITY AND THEY DON'T WANT TO
GIVE MY MONEY BACK.
CONSIDERING HOMELESSNESS IS A
BILLION DOLLARS INDUSTRY AND
BILLIONS OF DOLLARS ARE BEING
TRANSFERRED WHY DON'T WE HAVE
ANY PROGRAM THAT SENDS PEOPLE
OUT TO WHERE THEY HAVE
FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE WITH THOSE
GROUPS TO REPORT TO YOU.
WE HAD A TALK, YOU CLAIM ONE
THING, BUT YOU DON'T HAVE IT ON
PAPER TO VERIFY IT BECAUSE YOU
KNOW IF IT'S NOT ON PAPER IT
DIDN'T HAPPEN RIGHT.
RIGHT.
AND ONE MORE THING, AS FOR THE
TO HELP YOU GUYS OUT WITH THE
COOPER RECYCLING, YOU MAY WANT
TO THINK ABOUT ADDING MUFFLERS
TO THE LIST.
BECAUSE WHAT I KNOW IS, THE
VALUABLE METALS INSIDE OF THAT
MUFFLER IT'S JUST VALUABLE.
AND IT'S ALSO MORE HARMFUL TO
THE ENVIRONMENT.
>> THANK YOU.
>> AT THE RECYCLING CENTER
THOSE THINGS.
AND THEN THE MUFFLER IS GONE.
>> THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU AGAIN, I SURE LOOK
FORWARD TO BEING PART OF THE
SOLUTION INSTEAD OF COMING HERE
AND TALKING ABOUT THE PROBLEM.
>> THANK YOU.
>> LONNIE, AARON AND TIFFANY.

>> HI, I'M ACTUALLY HERE TO
SHARE A STATEMENT FROM KIANA
PARKER WHO'S A MEMBER OF THE
TRANSPORTATION EQUITY WORK
FORCE GROUP WHO WAS UNABLE TO
BE HERE TODAY.
I MAY JUST E-MAIL IT TO YOU.
>> CAN YOU SUMMARIZE IT.
>> I HEAR ALL OF YOU SPEAK
ABOUT EQUITY ON A REGULAR
BASIS.
I HEAR THE MAYOR SPEAK ABOUT
EQUITY, I HEAR SDOT OFFICIALS
TALK ABOUT EQUITY IN
OPPORTUNITIES ALL AROUND THE
CITY AND IF WE AS A CITY ARE
CUTTING THE FUNDING THAT SAYS A
LOT TO ME ABOUT WHO WE ARE AS A
CITY.
>> THANK YOU.
>> IS MASS COALITION HERE OR A
REPRESENTATIVE?
GREAT, THANK YOU, HI.
>> CAN WE EACH TAKE A MINUTE.

TRANSPORTATION WORK YOU'RE
DOING AND INCLUDING IN THE
BUDGET.
RIGHT NOW I VERY SPECIFICALLY
WANT TO SPEAK ABOUT ITEM NUMBER
28.
WHICH IS THE FUNDING TO
CONTINUE THE TRANSPORTATION
EQUITY AGENDA I JUST WANT TO
SAY THAT I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT
THE COUNCIL ABSENCE NOT WHEN WE
KNOW THAT PEOPLE OF COLOR ARE
MORE LIKELY TO BE TRANSIT
DEPENDENT.
WE KNOW THAT PEOPLE IN LOW
INCOME JOBS ARE GETTING PUSHED
FURTHER AND FURTHER AWAY.
IT'S CRITICALLY IMPORTANT THAT
THIS CONTINUES TO BE FUNDED,
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU, BRITNEY.
>> WHAT SHE SAID AND I'M ALICE
GOHART AND SUBMITTED BY COUNCIL
MEMBER O'BRIEN PARTICULARLY
SO1SDOT19B1 WHICH MANDATES A
STATE LEVEL OF SERVICE ONE.
WHICH MANDATES A REEVALUATION
OF HOW SDOT APPLIES THE
COMPLETE STREET POLICIES TO
PROJECTS.
IT SHIFTS FROM CAR CENTRIC
ENGINEERING TO THE CITY'S CORE
TRANSPORTATION VALUES OF
EQUITY, SAFETY, WALKABLE
NEIGHBORHOODS AND PARTICULARLY
REDUCTION IN GREENHOUSE GAS
EMISSIONS, SO I URGE EVERYONE
TO INCLUDE IT.
A BIT FROM ME, WE SAY YES TO
CROSS LAMINATED TIMBER, YES TO
TINY HOMES, YES TO RESTORATIVE
JUSTICE.
STOP THE SWEEPS AND STOP THE
NAB TEAMS WHICH HAVE DONE
IRREPRABLE HARM TO PEOPLE IN MY
OWN NEIGHBORHOOD WHO LOSE THEIR
ITEMS WHEN THEY'RE THROWN AWAY.
>> I HAVE TWO MORE PEOPLE
SIGNED UP.
IS LORI CAMPBELL HERE.
RAISE YOUR HAND.
THANK YOU.
>> GOOD AFTERNOON.
THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO US.
TINY HOUSE VILLAGE IS NOT
CLOSING THIS YEAR.
THE DEPARTMENT IS MISLEADING
YOU ABOUT THIS.
THE GREAT MAJORITY OF THE
PEOPLE AT NORTH LAKE TINY HOUSE
VILLAGE WILL NOT LEAVE UNTIL
THEY HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO
MOVE INTO PERMANENT AFFORDABLE
HOUSING.
THANK YOU.
>> THANK YOU, LORI.
GENE DARCY.
>> HI I'M GENE DARCY.
RIGHT OFF THE BAT I WANT TO SAY
YAY FOR MOBILE PUMP OUTS, NO ON
MONOPOLIES OF MANAGEMENT OF
THOSE TINY HOUSE VILLAGES.
WE NEED VARIETY.
I SPENT LAST EIGHT YEARS AS A
CITIZEN VOLUNTEER UNPAID WITH
LIMITED RESOURCES TRYING TO
KEEP PEOPLE OUT OF HARM'S WAY
WHO ARE LIVING IN A VEHICLE.
WE'VE BEEN MARGINALLY
SUCCESSFUL AT THAT BUT NOT
REALLY.
THERE HAVE BEEN NO MEANINGFUL
OUTREACH TO VEHICLE INCIDENTS
DURING THAT PERIOD TO MY
KNOWLEDGE AND I DON'T CONSIDER
SBU CLEAN UPS TO BE OUTREACH.
I CALL THEM SWEEPS.
AND THEY DO GREAT DAMAGE.
THERE ARE LIMITS TO WHAT
OUTREACH THERE IS.
REACH AND LEAD ONLY WORK WITH
THOSE WHO ARE DRUG ADDICTED OR
HAVE MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES.
I TALK TO A LOT OF PEOPLE WHO
DON'T HAVE ANY OF THOSE THINGS.
THEY ARE NOT GETTING HELPED.
AND THERE'S A MAN THAT I WAS
WORKING WITH JUST RECENTLY THAT
IS IN THAT SITUATION.
SO, PLEASE MORE RESOURCES FOR
VEHICLE OUTREACH.
>> GOOD.
THANK YOU GENE AND THANKS FOR
ALL YOUR WORK.
IS THERE ANYONE WHO SIGNED UP
THAT I MISSED.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME SIR?
>> DUVALL.
YOU DIDN'T MISS ME I DIDN'T
REALIZE THAT THE PUBLIC COMMENT
HAD STARTED BACK UP AT 2:00.
>> COME UP.
>> I'M TEAMSTER 174
REPRESENTATIVE.
I'M HERE TO ASK FOR YOUR
SUPPORT IN ITEM 617 AND 19.
THE OED REQUESTS.
IF AS KSHAMA SAWANT POINTED OUT
THE UTTER CONTENT THAT THIS
MAYOR HOLDS US IN, THE UNIONS,
DISINVITED AND KICKED OUT OF
THE RETREAT THAT WAS HELD TODAY
IN THE ARTS AND CULTURE OFFICE
IN KING STREET STATION.
WE HAVE BEEN TRYING AND TRYING
AND TRYING TO COMMUNICATE AND
CONVERSE WITH THEM AND THIS IS
EXACTLY WHY WE CAME TO THE
COUNCIL TO BEGIN WITH.
THERE'S NO CLEAR DEMONSTRATION
OF THE CONTEMPT AND DISDAIN
THAT THEY HOLD US IN.
THEN THEY'RE KICKING US OUT OF
THEIR RETREAT BECAUSE OF A
PIECE OF PAPER.
BECAUSE OF SOMETHING THAT WE
WROTE BECAUSE WE CAN'T
COMMUNICATE WITH THEM.
THAT'S WHY WE'RE NOT, WE'RE NOT
THERE.
THAT'S WHY THEY'RE NOT
LISTENING TO US.
THAT'S WHY WE HAVE TO COME TO
YOU AND GO TO THE NEWS OUTLETS.
IT IS UNBELIEVABLE THAT IN THIS
CITY WE CAN'T SIT DOWN AND
TALK.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
>> THANK YOU FOR COMING DOUG.
THAT BRINGS ME TO THE END OF
THE LIST.
UNLESS I MISSED SOMETHING THAT
SIGNED UP.
WHAT'S YOUR NAME?
>> NO COME ON US.
BECAUSE I DID CALL YOU.
NOBODY WAS HERE SO PLEASE COME
UP.
ANYBODY ELSE THAT SIGNED UP
THAT I'VE MISSED.
ALL RIGHT LAURA LEE YOU'RE
GOING TO BE OUR FINAL SPEAKER
FOR THE DAY.
>> BOY.
WE WANT YOU TO BE REALLY,
REALLY GOOD.
>> YIKES OKAY.
WE'LL SEE IF I CAN FIGURE OUT
MY COMPUTER.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING
HERE.
I HAD SOME OTHER FOLKS IN MY
SOCIAL WORK.
BUT THEY HAD TO WORK ONE OF
THEIR MANY JOBS AS WE ALL DO AS
STUDENTS.
SO MANY NAME IS LORI LEE STERM
I'M A STUDENT AT UDUB AND ALSO
THE YOUTH REACH MANAGEMENT FOR
TINY HOUSE VILLAGE.
I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE OF
GETTING TO KNOW PEOPLE THERE.
WE SUPPORT THE EXPANSION OF THE
TINY HOUSE VILLAGES ACROSS THE
CITY BUT I REALLY WANT TO MAKE
SURE WE'RE MAKING SPACE TO TALK
ABOUT HOW WE NEED TO PRESERVE
THE NORTH LAKE TINY HOUSE
VILLAGE AND DO EVERYTHING WE
CAN TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE ABLE
TO STAY.
IN THE LAST 24 HOURS, WE
ACTUALLY COLLECTED OVER 100
SIGNATURES ON A PETITION BEING
CIRCULATED AROUND THE SCHOOL OF
SOCIAL WORK AND OUR COMMUNITY
PARTNERS IN ORDER TO STAND IN
SOLIDARITY WITH NORTH LAKE TO
KEEP IT OPEN SO IT WILL BE
DELIVERED TO EACH OF YOUR
OFFICES THIS AFTERNOON.
INITIALLY MY FRIEND WERE GOING
TO HELP ME READ IT BUT WE HAVE
13 SECOND LEFT SO WE'RE NOT
GOING TO DO THAT.
BUT I IMPLORE YOU TO VALUE THE
VOICES OF OUR RESIDENTS.
>> THANK YOU FOR COMING AND
THANK YOU TO YOUR COLLEAGUES.
AND THANK YOU TO EVERYBODY WHO
STAYED.
THERE WAS A GROUP THAT MET WITH
MY STAFF OVER THE LUNCH HOUR.
THE NEWS THAT I HEARD FROM THE
WALLINFORD COMMUNITY GROUP IS
THAT THEY'RE IN SUPPORT OF YOUR
STAYING AS WELL.
THAT KIND OF COMMUNITY SUPPORT
IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO US.
BECAUSE I KNOW THE MAYORS
OFFICE AND COMMUNITY DEPARTMENT
WHEN PERMITS ARE ISSUED FOR ONE
YEAR WITH A ONE YEAR EXTENSION
WE FEEL THAT WE PROMISED SO WE
HAVE TO FOLLOW THROUGH WITH
THAT.
IF THE COMMUNITY IS COMING
AROUND AND SAYING WE'RE WILLING
TO WORK WITH YOU ON SOMETHING
DIFFERENT THAT'S VERY HELPFUL
SO THANK YOU SEAN FOR LEADING
THAT.
I APPRECIATE ALL OF YOU FOR
COMING.
OUR MEETING IS ADJOURNED.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
THANKS FOR EVERYBODY WHO STAYED
AND COMMENTED.
