Thank you. We can do roll call please.

Good evening, we have interpretation into Spanish available if anybody wants. I have headsets over here. Thank you. Gracias.

Thank you. Our city attorney Mr Rosen do you have anything to report from closed session?

Uh thank you mayor so for the closed session agenda item read into the record at 4 30 there is no reportable action

okay Okay at this time we'll have public forum so anything that's not on our agenda this evening and as pertains to this jurisdiction.

Yes thank you mayor for those who wish to speak on a non-agenda item please use raised hand icon and I will call on you. I have no speaker slips, I do have Frank DeMarco if you please unmute yourself you'll have three minutes

Thank you very much. I just want to publicly thank the Director of Public Works, Nina Buolna and Javier Garcia and the other staff on Public Works Department. I want to thank Mayor Perotti And our district representative, Stuart Kazdin and the rest of the city council for budgeting. The job of repaving and re-striping Pacific Oaks between Hollister and Excuse me, having trouble remembering that the streets here but anyway it's a beautiful job. I want to thank you on behalf of many Phelps Road by the way.

I want to thank you on behalf of many people in the neighborhood and The people that are using Gersh Park for the athletic events, both during practice during the week and on the weekends. The striping job is actually Quite a work of art and well done. The paving is wonderful, and I just wanted to say that I know there's more to come in the paving department throughout the city but what a great job you did on Pacific Oaks.

The one thing I would just hope for is that our new police chief will pay some serious attention Adherence to the speed limits on that portion of Pacific Oaks. Anyway, thank you all very much we really appreciate it.

Thank you so much

I have no more speakers for public forum here

We do have a proposed adjustment to the agenda tonight for the council's consideration. So I'm looking at the agenda, just skipping past the consent calendar which you'll get to in a minute But we're recommending that you reverse the order of items, they are both public hearings. B1 and B2. So B1 is an item to consider a residential project, 56 unit single family home and associated EIR.

Consideration of adoption of an interim urgency ordinance and extending that for a senior mobile home park overlay. And we just feel that if you reverse the order, that would be a better way to go. So we'll leave that up to the council if you want to do that but that would be our suggestion.

Thank you. Good evening Mayor, Councilmembers. My name is Shannon Kern, Assistant to the City Manager and as Robert alluded to several staff members and councilmembers attended the third annual Reach Ideas and Action Summit on Thursday March 12th at UC Santa Barbara's Corwin Pavilion. So this event brought together more than 300 local leaders, thinkers and community shapers to dream big and accelerate progress for our region.

The theme of the event was turning bold ideas into transformative actions so I wanted to just cover a couple of the key takeaways and share with with folks here on online So the Central Coast role in shaping America's energy future, making it more resilient and with renewable energies was a big topic. How local high schools, colleges and universities unlock the opportunity pipeline to connect local talent to career pathways We also talked about, there's discussions about the persistent challenges of affordable housing and then as well as emerging approaches to permitting innovations and then ways to increase housing supply.

And also using strategic foresight to navigate disruption and build a resilient thriving region. At this event, several representatives spoke, including Senator Alex Padilla who recorded a video message for the group. Congressman Salud Carbajal was there as well as Nandy Coloretti, the Cabinet Secretary for Office of Governor Newsom. They all offered remarks on California's future.

And the summit reinforced the idea that Central Coast has a significant economic potential, but success will depend on regional collaboration, housing solutions, workforce development and continued investment in innovation and clean energy sectors. So staff we felt very invigorated by this summit and energized and all the unique opportunities for Goleta and the region Moving forward, and so one thing that REACH does highlight often that I wanted to share with the group is at this meeting and at others is this chart of the pilot subtexters. So this is from the California Jobs First playbook So California Jobs First is a statewide economic development strategic plan, basically. And it invests in key sectors to drive sustainable economic growth, innovation and access to good-paying jobs.

As you can see the central coast hits all five of these key sectors and we're the only ones besides the Bay Area who has each of these sectors so it's really ripe for economic development. And so California will focus on these subsectors over the next two years, making concentrated investments and taking of whole government approaches to growth across the state. So this targeted focus not only makes it easier for agencies to collaborate but also ensures that they're able to engage the full ecosystem within each sector including workforce development and other critical supports to maximize benefits broadly. So I just wanted to share that with the group. I thought that it was very interesting, and I was really glad I was able to attend.

Thank

you. With that, I will... Oh yeah, it is all within reach, right? California's Central Coast. So with that, I'll pass it over to Luke Rio to go over the Quantum Day.

I would like to provide a brief update on the quantum California convening that I attended, had the opportunity to attend this past Friday on March 13th at UC Santa Barbara and at the Oasis facility right across the street. So that event was organized by the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, also known as GO-Biz, and the UC office of the President and REACH. The event's goal was to bridge that gap between world class academic research and the state's jobs first economic strategy more focusing on quantum.

So that morning, it highlighted why this region is the epicenter of that emerging industry. We heard from senior leaders at UCSB from Microsoft Station Q including Nobel laureates affiliated with the campus. There was a reoccurring theme with UCSBS unique collaborative culture in that field and the lack of silos across departments would allow that campus to lead in quantum materials and nano fabrication. So then later that morning we toured the campus facilities including the NanoFab facility and then the California Nanosystems Institute and the Quantum Foundry. We then spent the afternoon at Oasis, so again that's UCSB's new 105,000 square foot innovation hub that's located across the street which is really designed to accelerate transfers and taking research out of that lab and into the marketplace.

So at Oasis, GO-Biz staff outlined that California Jobs First quantum strategy. And so that was set forth under Assembly Bill 940 that was signed last October requiring GO-Biz to publish a statewide quantum strategic framework by July 1st, 2026. So part of that afternoon it was spent in strategic breakout sessions to help inform that roadmap covering infrastructure and assets, talent and workforce, and market development Participants included representatives from the Department of Defense or Department of War, defense industry partners including Lockheed Martin, Quantum Businesses and Partners and leaders from other UC campuses and colleges from down south. Now GO-Biz will continue to seek input as it finalizes that strategy. Two themes that I thought I'd share that I noticed from discussion, there was this strong push for regional alignment supporting regional hubs information data sharing rather than forcing local governments or campuses and universities to compete for resources.

Then also what I kind of caught on to was the presence of major defense and private industry partners just really showing that growing interest of that quantum ecosystem within our region. But overall, that event I felt underscored both the strength of our local research community and the significant opportunity quantum technology represents for Goleta. Particularly given that Oasis is right across the street and serves as a key link between university research and commercial development. And so that kind of will conclude my report. I'm happy to answer any questions.

Thank you.

Madam Mayor, that's it unless there's any questions for Council for either the staff

Thank you. Okay, so we go on to consent calendar.

Thank you, Madam Mayor. That is item A1 approval of the City Council meeting minutes of March 3, 2026. Item A2 acceptance of the January 2026 check register. Item A3 an annual claim with the Santa Barbara County Associated Governments for allocation of fiscal year 2026-27 Transportation Development Act funds. Item a4 agreement with DUDEC for storm drain master plan And item A5 Strogo Park deed modifications, relocation of waterline easement and Strogo Park phase one construction beds.

Thank you. Council wish to pull any items from consent? Not seeing any do we have any speakers?

Yes that will bring us to item B2 consider adoption of an interim ordinance extending senior mobile home park overlay and moratorium on conversion to an all ages park

Thank you

Good evening, Madam Mayor and Council Members. Last month your council adopted an interim urgency ordinance creating a senior mobile home park overlay and prohibiting conversion of senior mobile home parks to all ages parks. That was after the new owner of University Mobile Home Park, the only senior mobile home park in the city moved to change that property to an all-ages park Under California's government code, that ordinance will expire on April 3rd. That's after 45 days unless extended by a four-fifths affirmative vote.

So staff recommends that you extend that ordinance and the associated regulations as outlined in the staff report.

Thank you for that. Questions from Council? Oh, I guess I should say that this is a public hearing and we will open the public hearing at this point. And we heard the staff's presentation. We'll go to council for questions and then we'll go to the public for testimony and questions and staff response. More council questions if needed and then I will close the public testimony portion And council will go into deliberation. We'll close the public hearing and entertain a motion. Okay, questions from council?

No questions?

I'll just state for the record it seems like we don't have a lot of questions but we had a quite lengthy discussion on this topic at our last meeting.

Yes, we did. Okay so we'll go to the public

Thank you, Madam Mayor. For those of you on the Zoom webinar please use raised hand icon and I will call on you if you wish to speak this item. I do have three speaker slips our first speakers Fred Sloman. All speakers will have three minutes.

Madam Mayor City Council members and city staff My name is Fred Sleeman, past president of the University Mobile Home Park Residents Association. I'm here to speak on behalf of the University Mobile Home Parks and I just want to bring to your attention one of our residents has just received an email from the new owners Harmony regarding their rent increase which I believe is going to be very detrimental to the park residents.

The owners are requiring a rent increase from $575 to $1,995 effective July 1st so they're doing their duty by by giving the resident a three-month notice. Other than that, there's a couple of homes in the park that are for sale and the average space rent in that park was around the $350 mark prior to Harmony taking possession. They're asking now for these two homes that they own The space rent of $995, which is going to put a lot of senior citizens.

It's gonna put that out of their reach. We believe that if this company is allowed to implement these rent increases on residents all it's gonna result in is more homeless people in our city and the most vulnerable, in my opinion are going to be living in their cars that if they can still afford to have a car to live in. So we are asking the residents are asking the City Council to please look at our situation and And continue on with this ordinance of that park remaining an affordable park for senior citizens. I thank you very much for your time, and I'm sure that you will address our concerns in the ordinance. Thank you very

much.

Our next speaker is Dr. Yolanda Marquez.

Mayor, City Council members and honored guests. My name is Dr. Yolanda Moniquez. I was born in Santa Barbara. I'm a Santa Barbara native. I got my degrees from UCSB and I live in the University Mobile Home Park. I've lived there as of tomorrow 16 years And the majority, more than the majority are senior citizens who live on a fixed income. I really want you to consider what is going on and that people who speak here or people who kind of challenge the status quo may get repercussions.

And I'm asking you to please, please make sure That 55 community stays. When I first moved there, I got sick with cancer. And I've had three bouts of it. And I live there because the people are kind, I've made great friends and it's a place where you know people, everybody sticks together. We're not out to stick anybody for anything. So with your help and not with Harmonies or Three Pillars who have gone to try and raise the rent on people who are trying to sell their house or trying to buy a house in the community. It is a senior park, there aren't any kids. There's no place for them to play unless it's in the middle of the street. So what can you do?

So again, I please ask you for your consideration. And I think I'm getting emotional here for you to really think of what this means to all the seniors in that park. Thank you for your time. Thank you for allowing me to speak. Thank you again. Thank you. Our

next in-person speaker is Lawrence Boehm.

Madam Mayor and city representatives, council members, employees, whoever else. Um, I just want to let you know that I'm probably the oldest member of the university mobile home park that has lived there the longest 28 years. I've been there with four different managers and The park was never set up to be a family park. There are no play areas, no open areas. The trailers are very close together.

I can open my back window and shake my neighbor's hand so that's where we're at. James has been over there several times. He knows the situation and it's not set up as a family park. That's why Harmony came in and wants to change the whole status and it's not even physically set up that way. We had our second manager, Linda, let in three different young men with their mothers and three different trailers.

These young men were all on drugs. One actually had a meth lab in his trailer with a pet skunk. The other two had gang members outside the park Every evening they would come in with black hoodies on and steal whatever they could steal to supply their drug habits. Linda, the manager was even afraid to go out at night so that's what happens when you bring in people that are not really seniors that are responsible and want to have a quiet beautiful You know, situation to live.

So it took the park at least a year litigation to get them out of the park since they left there hasn't been any stealing going on. I lost an iPhone several hundred dollars people just would walk into your trailer during their day if you had your door open And you're in the back room, they would help themselves. And all day long they would be going around seeing what they could steal and then at night bring their black hoodies in and steal whatever there was nothing if it wasn't, nailed down, it would be stolen. And that went on for a good maybe three years and finally they got them out of the park. And ever since it's been very harmonious there in a lovely place to live.

So I hope that can continue. Thank you.

Thank you.

That concludes our in-person speakers. We do have one hand up on zoom. Karina Munoz if you'll please unmute yourself, you'll have three minutes

Hello.

Go ahead we can hear you.

Hello hi I'm sorry. My name is Karina Munoz and I am just currently at a class for my daughter but I am calling to represent my hold on one second. I'm so sorry. Come here. Come here. Sorry about this. I'm calling because or i'm here because I wanted to represent my mom who lives in the park who can't speak for herself she like many other of the people don't have a lot of people that can speak for them they're either seniors that you know are really far removed from what's happening currently in the environment or they don't speak English, or they just aren't able to really come and find transportation to these meetings. And so I can only speak on my mother's behalf but she moved in about three years ago we were able to find this nice park where we felt that she was safe.

She everybody around her was in you know seniors and you know this is a park that has a lot of stuff that needs to be fixed you know to to be able to call it a family I'm so sorry, just give me one second. And so basically I'm just trying to communicate that I think it's really sad to see that this company has come in to really take advantage of this really vulnerable community. They have come in and literally you know all right away provided rent increases they haven't taken the time to come and meet each one of the individuals, they haven't come in and like see who this park's about I don't even know who they are and I'm the one that's writing the check on behalf of my mom to ensure that everything is It's going in order. And what I'm just seeing is that these people that don't have a way to communicate or a voice are being taken advantage of, and I come here because I'm trying to represent her and other people too.

And I do believe that what they're doing is really sad because most of these people are on social security which you know isn't a lot They're either on disability, they don't have people that help them with income and they're living in very meager simple humble dwellings. And to see these people thrown out they're going to be your next homeless community because where else in Santa Barbara are they going to be able to pay rent? And unless the city is working on you know I know the housing projects that are happening maybe in Goleta will they be able to You know, have this be of ability for these people to to be part of this. I don't know but I just ask for your grace for these people, for my mom who's been there that we are you know pay what we can for a rent live on humble beginnings and meet and mean means and asked for be able to support this community.

I don't think that it's fair that they're trying to change in all ages to take advantage One of the few parts to help this community members and these people live, you know the way they are and have that opportunity. So I thank you so much for your patience in these talking and thing with my daughter, I apologize but I hope that you take what I said with what you can and I really honor your time. So thank you so much.

Thank you for speaking on your mother's behalf. Thank you.

And that concludes public comment for this item Mayor.

Okay Council Member Kasdan?

Yeah, I just want to belabor the stuff we talked about last time but just to clarify a couple of points that were raised here. And if I'm mistaken about this, please clarify me. But that first of all what we're talking about is and what Harmony's talking about is not pushing people out. It's about the people who are there could continue to stay there but Harmony would be doing would be opening up the parcels as they open up to be able to be eligible for people who are not seniors. So new residents that come in could be families, not just seniors. So this isn't about people getting shoved out as a result of the action.

The second observation is whether this was developed with adequate facilities for families and others and I guess I'd say that to me It's the decision of the families to make. There's not a lot of affordable housing in the city and, uh, the problem is it's so stretched that even things that aren't ideal necessarily as far as playgrounds and other things would be better than housing where its whole financially exceeds their ability to pay.

That's when I look at this, my concern is You know, why are we excluding certain groups from this opportunity? And the last thing to point out is that as far as I know people were commenting about the rent increases. We're not addressing the rent control. That isn't a topic here that this is about making this a senior only facility. To the extent that there's concerns about how they're managing the rent control process It's a separate discussion and that one I'm sympathetic because people can't move. mobile homes. If you have a mobile home in a spot, you're captive. There's nowhere to take it. You know there's no other sites available so you're subject to whatever the owner of the land deems to charge. So there's a rationale for the rent control that's different than rent control in other locations and other areas but to my understanding that isn't something that is the subject of what we're discussing.

And so anyway, I won't go on with this but that's it.

Thank you. Mayor Pro Tem

Smith? Thank you yes. I did want to address a you know I certainly hope residents will share if there's been separately we are focused on the issue of the age question this evening and that's the ordinance before us tonight But if there are any potential violations of our existing rent ordinance, hopefully that will be investigated to the extent possible by city staff.

But I also want to remind residents that city staff cannot act as your individual legal counsel There are resources available in the community, affordable resources for civil legal representation through Legal Aid Foundation and other places. So I do want to remind folks that that's a resource that is available because there may be individuals there who need or facing individual unique legal issues that need to be addressed on a case-by-case basis that's sort of separate from some of these larger policy items.

And there's no question that in any other context familial discrimination is prohibited in Goleta, in the state of California and nationwide in most circumstances. And discrimination based on the status of having children is a real thing that happens in our community and is highly discouraged. However, as a society we have also embraced an exception to that. to say we are allowing seniors facilities, senior mobile home parks, other senior apartment complexes because of the special and unique needs of seniors. That's long been accepted state and federal law in a value in our community. We have an ongoing aging population so I just wanted to state that I understand where Council Member Kasdan is coming from because in any other context, I would be in complete agreement with him.

But in this context the request from the community is to maintain that status quo for the senior residents and so I continue to support the ordinance as proposed. Thank you.

Thank you Madam Mayor. I'll just echo everything that was just said by Mayor Pro Tem Smith and I'll just add, and I don't want to get into a tit-for-tat here either we've already heard this matter and had public comment in a public hearing I'll just say that as the representative for this district and the representative of the Mobile Home Park, I've heard from a lot of tenants who have either received an eviction notice themselves or have been really impacted by a close friend or neighbor in the park who has received an eviction notice.

So for a matter that's supposedly not about evictions, I'm hearing a lot about evictions. I ultimately think at the end of the day, the State of California has identified the need to look out for seniors and preserve senior housing as a vexing and important public policy matter that deserves attention. There's a whole master plan on aging. The state refers to it as the silver tsunami coming. A lot of people retiring past retirement age are still having to work because they need affordable accessible housing.

We aren't always going to be able to provide senior housing, like at Heritage Ridge that's deed restricted. So there's not always going to be a lot of options. Our housing element identified deed-restricted housing that's gonna be coming off the rolls in coming years and you have to find a way to replenish that and you have to have strategies to replenish that. And I think a really good strategy is to not lose the non-deed restricted but senior Housing that we do have in our community and not just willfully allow it to go away. And so I'll be supporting the ordinance, and I also have a lot of respect for Council Member Kasdan's position. We just agree to disagree on this one.

Yeah,

just I don't know if we have available the information offhand but we contract with a mediator for if there are rent issues and so forth. And so yeah, if we can provide that information that would seem to me to be an appropriate venue if there's rent type of questions

Council Member Kasdan, the Rental Housing Mediation Program which we contract with the City of Santa Barbara for they don't operate in mobile home parks.

Really?

Sucks. Okay that's weird why would they exclude but anyway all right thank

you. Council Member Reyes-Martin

Thank you. I agree, I couldn't have said it better than Mayor Pro Tem Smith so thank you for your comments. I remain supportive of the ordinance and I do want to thank the residents who have continued to attend these meetings and provide your public comment. I know it's probably not easy always to get here and it's really important for your voices to be heard Ms. Munoz for speaking for her mom, I really appreciate it. A lot of times we have reports but to actually see and hear your voices and your stories is also really important so thank you for your engagement.

Thank you. I have nothing more to add that I haven't said in the past, I do want to say I so appreciate all of you for coming out again and speaking to us thank you and it's also if I choose We're going to have more public speakers. That's up to me, and I did see somebody raise their hand they wanted to speak. Did you still like to come up and speak? I haven't closed public comments, so

this is your chance. Hi my name's Holly Boniface and I was not prepared to speak but I would like to because of what was just said. This is in reference to eviction it was brought to my attention that my next door neighbor whose home was her dad's then her mom's then her brother's now it's hers they are not going to grant a lease So this is a person who I met, actually when my neighbor was walking by she said you heard about Gil. You know he actually passed away he owned a local business the vacuum cleaner business right there in Hollister and I met Debbie and her sister And then Debbie rents, and she was preparing to move in. And she had spent probably a couple days cleaning out things and was getting ready to move in. And I didn't see her for a long time.

And then I went away on a trip, came back, and there was a notice between my car and my house. So I picked it up, and it was for her, I think because it said 29. So anyway, I called her and I said hey, I got this notice. And then she said I guess you haven't heard what's happened? And I said what and she said they're not going to grant me a lease so Anyway You know, and she wants to actually it was something where I did give her information on legal aid.

But she works she was working for the homeless shelter now she's working for some other organization that helps people here in our town. And so I know it's something that's happening and I definitely would rather have her say it, but I did get permission to speak about it. And I did bring it to the new president, not Fred, but Dory. So anyway, I just wanted to mention that this is actually happening and I'm very upset about it. And so, I just wanted to mention it.

Thank you for bringing it to our attention. Staff have any comments or questions? I mean, have anything, any remarks to make at this point. Thank you for letting me know about the task force, the mediation task force. They don't deal with handle mobile home parks. Is

that

true? And

it's not like an add-on, like a pizza you can have extra service. I don't want to go

on and on about that but that was a surprise so if there's any other public that would like to say something now is your time otherwise I'm gonna please come back up otherwise I'm going to close the public comment after

Mayor, I do want to note everyone's entitled to the same three minutes so we would request new speakers. Well that's true. Otherwise?

I'll try and keep it as short as possible. Okay. I just wanted to add that there are eviction notice or as they say it termination notices that people are getting in the park and they are having their space rent raised at our new places And I don't think any of you have heard about any of it. It's new people, they're selling homes, they're jacking up the space rent to 995 or more where when I started in the park my space rent was $275. Now over 16 years it's at 330 plus what we agreed to on the agreement And they wanted to raise my rent over $220 a month.

And so we were able to work out with the group, which I am part of, as to an agreement of $30 more each month for the next five years going up $30 up 250. So there are things that are going on that some of you may not be aware of Council Member Kasdan, I'd like to point out that we are not trying to say that we don't want families in the park. It's just that it's always been a senior park. Sanders who owned it wanted it kept that way. He told his managers that every time we came in and we had to show our age by a license or something that showed who we were when we signed our agreement And I think even the renters that were in there at that time were 55, although one of them could be 45.

So I need you to realize that we're not speaking just for the heck of it, of saying we don't want anybody else in there. That's really not it. It's the fact that it's all, wait a minute let me finish. It always said it has been a senior park from the day Sanders had it. Thank you again and I apologize if I overstated anything and I apologize if I offended you. That was not my intention okay? Thank you.

You have the opportunity to speak now. Has the hand, did the person, have they spoken already? They

have for three minutes yes.

They have? They have. Okay yeah okay so I'm at this point going to close public comment and... Are we ready for a motion? You had your light on so... As I've

been waiting to make a motion.

Oh okay that's what you wanted to do.

When we're ready.

Are we ready any more deliberation okay

I'll move that we adopt on a four-fifths vote urgency ordinance number 26 next in line, U entitled an extension of an urgency ordinance of the City Council of the city of Goleta California adding chapter 17.22 to the Goleta Municipal Code to establish a senior mobile home park overlay district and moratorium prohibiting the conversion of senior mobile home parks to all ages parks and fighting the ordinance categorically exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act

I'll second.

And I did close the public hearing, yes? Okay all right so we have a motion and a second roll call vote.

I'll take us to item B1, Shelby Single-Family Residential Project for 56 single family units in three open space lots with a final environmental impact report at 7400 Cathedral Oaks Road APN 077-530-019 case number 05-154-VTM-DP-DRB.

Okay, while they're getting set up I want to remind everybody this is another public hearing and we will have staff make their presentation. And before that we'll do an ex parte of the council members then questions from the council applicant will have I think 15 minutes and then more questions if there need be Public comment, I will open that and staff clarification of the questions. A rebuttal from the applicant if needed so you might wanna save some of your time if you need to have a rebuttal.

Council questions? Close the public comment deliberation and close the public hearing and entertain a motion. And that's how we'll do that this evening. Okay who's gonna kick this off? Okay.

Did you still want the ex parte?

Oh, ex parte, yeah absolutely.

Okay just make sure we actually do that if we have it. I've had a couple of conversations with Jim Youngson who's one of the representatives for the applicant. I did not receive any requests to speak from project opponents and so I don't have an ex parte in that regard.

No communication.

I had one site visit last year to the property and the information learned there is available in the current staff report. And then I did have a follow-up conversation today to clarify a few questions that I believe will be addressed during the meeting, but one was to confirm that the site is currently vacant and to request an update on the status of where things are with the water district.

But otherwise all the information is in the public record.

Council Member Reyes-Martin.

I had outreach from Mr. Youngson to see if I had any additional questions or needed clarification and I did not, but I appreciated that offer and any of my other information is part of the public record. Thank you.

I'll just add to mine I didn't learn anything that wasn't in the public record.

Okay I think now we can move on to staff presentation.

Thank you Madam Mayor, members of Council. This is the Shelby Residential Project. Before I start the presentation, I briefly want to give some introductions. We do have a city team here tonight to not only present but also answer questions. So obviously to my right I have Lisa Prossi, current Planning Manager as you all know. We also have Peter Emhoff, Planning Director, Winnie Kai, Assistant City Attorney.
