Good night. Are you ready? Welcome to the regular session of the Sanfell CET Council. Today is Monday, August 26, CET Clerk Deyvai Hajar will be interviewed. Council Chair Bushi. Hajar. Council Chair Hill.

14:33Speaker 3

Vice Mayor Curtis. Hajar. Council Chair Maria Thule. Two mayors heard. Hajar. We had a session in the closed room before this session. CET Adorni will present its report.

14:43Speaker 2

Thank you, Mayor. There have been no reports in the discussion in the closed room this evening.

14:47 – 21:25Speaker 3

Thank you. Good evening to everyone. Welcome. Thank you for coming here or joining us online. We appreciate your participation and participation. We apologize for a few minutes late. There was a ribbon-cutting event in front of the CET Hall. There is an amazing new art there. So, next time you come to the city, make sure to see it. This is one of the many art works that are long in the city. If you have previously participated in the CET Council, you know that we start by inviting the people who work hard for our residents every day. Therefore, I am very happy to introduce our best team and best people to the community in the second stage of 2026. The best team on this stage is the Permit Technicians of our Community and Economic Development Department. Sidney Dolgeny, Julio Perez, Oscar Padilla. Sydney, Julio, Oscar and others have made constant claims that CET permits are being provided properly and efficiently for fast and high-speed employment. The changes to the open govillage, which is a platform that uses the city, have led to them not being able to keep up with the permits because they are learning new methods, implementing new activities, and providing high-quality employment. Their patience, positivity, and resilience are the key to their close relationship, teamwork, and new service. The most living person on this path is Grey Milgaard, a senior civil engineer at Public Works. In the midst of the change of the living, Grey continues to work for his co-operators with great responsibility, peace, professionalism, and co-operation. Grey is our Together Sanfel, and we are very fortunate to have them in our team. Congratulations to Sydney, Julio, Oscar, and Grey. This is how we are participating in this campaign. As a part of the public participation process, we would like to inform the public that we are now accepting the opinions of the public through telephone. We welcome everyone's opinions. Even if you participate directly or remotely, even if there are violations, we would like to say that we will continue to protect the environment with respect and friendship. As part of our celebration, we are introducing a land agreement made by the tribal workers themselves. This is in response to our cooperation and activities with them. We thank the real defenders of this land. Sanphal is a heritage of the Coast Mewak people. Many of them are now federated Indians of Great Rancheria tribal people. We respect their continued relationships and ways of living that are beneficial to all. Thank you for coming here. I request the CET clerk to explain how to participate in today's meeting. Thank you very much. Record today's meeting and share it on YouTube on time. For those who would like to share their opinions, you can participate via Zoom webinar or phone. If you are joining via phone, you can call the number 669-444-9171. Continue to enter the webinar ID as 866-619-5675. Pound Chinnam Amarthuka. If you want to receive a response, raise your hand and press star 9. When you receive a response, listen to a suggestion that you need to press star 6 to avoid mute. If you are coming through Zoom, you can use the raise hand feature when you want to speak. The host will call you and do what you need to do to avoid mute. If you are giving a response in advance, you can stand in front of the podium when Mayor Ketik stops. You will get 2 minutes to give your response. Within 2 minutes, a timer will be displayed on the podium and projector to help you speak. After two minutes, your microphone will be muted, and you will be able to speak to the next person. If you are living in any part of Sanfell or if you are coming from outside, we welcome you to say hello. But that is not necessary. If you have any financial difficulties, you can contact me at city.clarkatcityoftefell.org. Thank you. Thank you. At the beginning and end of yoga, we allow time to give feedback to the public. At the beginning, there will be about 10 minutes for those in the room and those online. We will have more time at the end of the yoga session. You are free to say which part of Sanfell you are staying in. But as you heard, it is not mandatory. As I mentioned earlier, we welcome your various opinions and thoughtful suggestions. Also, please help to create a comfortable environment for everyone. So, I have received two cards from those in the room. So, you are free now. We have Oliver Reyes and Mon Gahoy. If you want to come and talk, we are interested to hear what you say. Shubha Sayanam, Mayor K, Council members. My name is Mona Maho. I am a student at Davidson Middle School. I am a member of the youth organization Alcohol Justice in Kanaal. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to speak again. We are here. We need the most light and clear boards in Piccoway Park. This park is very important to the youth in our community. This is where we play, get along and share our friendship. These changes will make a big difference for us. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to speak and for your time. Thank you. Hi, my name is Oliver Reyes. I am a student going to Sandfield High School. In May, our youth ambassadors came here in need of a platform for the voice of local youth. I want to reiterate our commitment to that platform for young people. We need not only to talk to the city, but also to act as a city. We believe that Sanfe will be a source of inspiration for young people to understand the importance of poverty. Thank you for your time and dedication to make our society safe and strong. Thank you for your comments. Since this is a public open time, we cannot return to the office. But I am saying that we will definitely welcome the participation of the youth in the East Sandville initiative. So we have the details to relate to you. We will let you know when that initiative will take place. Because it will include other parts of Pickleweed and East Sandville. Thank you. Thank you both. Is there anyone else in the chamber? Is there anyone else in the chamber to give an opinion during public open time? I don't see anyone in the chamber.

21:26Speaker 4

Is there anyone online? No one is seen as the one who raised his hand. I would like to remind everyone who is calling through the phone. You can press star 9 to raise your hand. Thank you, Madam Mayor.

21:36Speaker 3

Let me just say a few things.

21:56 – 24:15Speaker 2

We have left out all the details related to this, but note that we have started road construction in San Pedro Road and in Tirol. These are two major paving projects that are part of our non-governmental activities. The activities will continue until October. That's why on busy days, from 8am to 5pm, there will be traffic jams and closed roads. So when you travel through those areas to pay attention to it, I urge everyone to pay more attention. And I also pay attention to what you told me about the plan specifically for East San Rafael. We also have efforts from various community organizations in the country. They believe that change.org will make the society aware of its potential. They are accepting comments through their platform. They have already started submitting important comments. We encourage you to do so. More details are available on the website. The council knows that the city council is considering a city permit program as part of the city's strategic plan. There have been some close meetings with the council. A survey is also going to be conducted. More details will be obtained about it. But I would like to inform the people about these two opportunities for feedback. Let me tell you about some of the meetings that will be held at the end of this week. At 10am tomorrow morning, the 3rd floor of this building will be occupied by our Financial Development Department. Our Police Department will arrive here at 6pm on Wednesday. Then, on the day of the weekend, the ceremony for the Bhavanarahi Dharka in the morning, and the ceremony for the Bhavanapadadi, which is 350 meters long, will take place at 5 p.m. on the weekend.

24:15 – 28:41Speaker 4

And, for the time being, I am stopping it here. Okay, thank you. I need to report to them what my co-workers have done. Vice Mayor Kurtz, please proceed. Thank you. We were one of the members of the Marine Community Clinic. So it was very happy. I took part in the legislation of the MCCMC, the Council of Mayors, and the Council of Directors. We conducted the ribbon-cutting of the golf center located in San Rafael, North, and it was very nice that the Mayor heard about it. It was good. Thanks to our San Rafael Police Department for organizing the National Night Out. I was able to conduct a meeting in three places in San Rafael North, in Condom Boy and in Tirol India. I conducted a survey on the CEDAS site located above San Rafael. It helps to serve many people with developmental disabilities and focuses more attention on the elderly. So, that's it. Thank you, Council Member Yuran Skaladi. Thank you, Mayor. Since I can't participate in the July meeting, I would like to share some details from the June meeting. I had gone to congratulate the family. So, I will say it in short. On June 5, I participated in the June Policy Committee meeting of Karl City. I am representing the city in the update of the current government. We talked about the current legislation in relation to the construction, data center, energy efficiency, pure energy, and the bill related to energy consumption. The committee also talked about some of the legislation sponsored by Carl City, such as disaster relief, forest fire resistance, the improvement of sea level, PFAS legislation, etc. I am very happy to be participating in this event. I will participate in the Kaal Cities Conference in September. I am sorry. I also participated in the 6th event at Bread Heart, Bread Heart Indy Park. It was a great event. The skills of our local artists, musicians, and choreographers were displayed there. So, this is a great opportunity to see the community. There was a sub-comedy meeting for the San Rafael City to fill the ocean. The Mayor takes the most part in it. Then there is a very exciting thing to say. It was the first agricultural green festival of the Reyes's Rail Canal. This was a traditional community event. I would like to thank the library and other agencies of Pigalwood for making it possible for all of us. I was a volunteer with Marine Gardeners. It was very nice to get the families interested in composting and other things. Finally, on August 12, I took part in the inauguration of the Crunch Fitness, which started new in Marina Square. Mayor Kate Ribbon was there, Council Angam Hill was also there. I am very happy to have started a new business in my district. This is done in the tech part of San Rafael. This will be open for 6-7 weeks. There was a good crowd there. This is a good facility for the community to lead a healthy life. Then, this morning I had a very happy time. It was a holiday, but Mayor Ked and I and some of our residents were kayaking through the canal. It was to show the new Sustainability Officer from Marin County about the rising sea level. Supervisors and other people from the county were also there. It was a wonderful day. But when I looked out of the water, I could see things in a different light. I am very grateful for that. So this is my report. Thank you. Thank you. Council Angambushi. I have three things to report. I will tell you the most important thing later in the program.

28:54 – 30:26Speaker 3

I will start from the Central Marine Sanitation Agency Board. Two important things happened there. First, we approved the job descriptions of the CMSA from San Rafael Sanitation District to the CMSA. This is part of our implementation process. Therefore, activities to make things happen are taking place. We heard the report about the centre in a closed session. I can't share the details, but I have good hopes that the situation between JPA and JPA will improve. I participated in the National Night Out campaign. I think there was a lot of participation this year. I saw that the Safe-Safe team paid special attention. People knew who they were and what they were doing. Finally, I am happy to be a part of Centerpoint Incorporated in August 2. This is a residential outpatient treatment center located in San Rafael. 23 people took part in this program, and they talked about how their lives were reversed. It was a great thing to hear about the role of Centerpoint in the lives of senior district attorneys. So, it was a very meaningful experience at B Street Community Centre. Thank you. Thank you, Council Angam Hill.

30:26 – 33:57Speaker 2

Thank you, Mayor Kate. My report included all the meetings in July, including the 25th of July. On that day, I took part in three events. Crystal Park, Sujikaranam. My job was to pick up the cigarette butts around me. That was a responsibility I took on my own. Then, I went to San Rafael High School to do the Touchrette Truck. It was the biggest Touchrette Truck ever. Since I wasn't there in the beginning, I knew that people like Black Friday were in a hurry to go inside. So next year we will have to find a bigger place. Then that evening, I participated in patrolling with Corporal Agaran. It was a very good experience to see how our patrol units operate in society and how they contribute to security. I will tell you an incident that happened that evening. A person called me and said that he was in trouble. The employee used their skills and experience to make use of all the ways he got and searched the house until he found the person. Fortunately, it was not a big accident, but I was able to understand how much the situation of our employees was. I am grateful for that opportunity. The next report is about the National Night Out that took place on August 4. As mentioned earlier, Mayor, Vice Mayor, Council member Bushy and Lieutenant Eberle and I were there. We had a meeting at Crystal Park, West End Neighbourhood, Vivillon Healthy Ageing Campus and I was able to participate in their lunch. Then on 12th August, Wednesday, I participated in Crunch Fitness, Marine Squares, Shopping Centre and Council member Muran Boladi. In the last 8, 1, 4, 5, I got the opportunity to visit the Marine Fire Station, which is the only station that I have not visited so far in our Shared Service Network. Coming back from a medical school, it was a great experience to see the people who serve our community. When Station 58 was built, I remembered that it was one of the stations that were not included in the public protection program funded by MESHER in 2013. A few months ago, I remembered that CET Maroonwood granted a fund for a short period of time to increase the number of employees and increase the number of workers. We still remember that we are proud of the long-term service we have been providing to the workers in Vaviyal. Finally, on the same day, I was at the Youth and Arts Committee to welcome the Kala Arts Council that we spoke to in front of CET Hall. They were here for one day as their official meeting. Some years ago, in 2017, they made a major contribution in earning more than $7 lakhs from California's 14 cultural art districts. We are grateful to the California Arts Council for coming here and representing our city, for the benefits of the funding, for the ongoing activities, and for the fact that they were able to see the art in person. That is my report.

33:58 – 36:40Speaker 3

Thank you. I would like to add a few more things. I also participated in the National Night Out. I would like to thank the community leaders who united us and our first opponent who participated in it. We were able to connect with everyone through it. So it was a very successful event. As you know, I am your representative at the Marine Transportation Authority. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission, the One Bay Area Grant Programme through MTC, was co-managed by Tam Jeevanakar Municipal Employee and DPW Director Miller. Funding opportunities are important for us to implement methods. It is not always easy to apply for grants. So, if we decide to apply for any grant, we are ready to go to the city and apply for them. Also, we had a Thumb Commission meeting. Today's jail, J, you can read it out loud. One of the main things we talked about was the navigation of the traffic signal provided by Maran County. To put it simply, many traffic signals are not responding to the current traffic laws. So, we are investigating all the signals in detail. We will continue to investigate what needs to be revised. We expect that everything will be revised, but they cannot be revised at the same time. So, we are investigating this whole thing through the county. We have heard about ribbon-cutting facilities. We always like ribbon-cutting facilities. When people die in the winter, they grow in the winter. As I mentioned earlier, we had Maran Indoor Golf. If you want to practice golf, it is available on Terndale. Then, Crunch Fitness. If you want to practice your own fitness, it is available on Kanal Parisarath. So, I really appreciate our local businesses. Finally, after speaking at Drake's Terrace, I am proud to say that it is a retirement community in Sandfield. I asked a lot of questions. I wanted to know what was going on in Sanfell. So, we always appreciate the opportunity to talk to community groups. So, if you are interested, contact us. And we are happy to do that. Thank you for everything you did after our last meeting in July. Before we get to the consent and calendar, let's see if there are any comments from the public. So, if you have anything to say about the reports you heard now, this is an opportunity to say that. Let me take a look at the chamber. Are you interested in saying anything about the reports? Yes, only about the reports. There will be an opportunity to talk about other issues later. No one is seen in the chamber. Is there anyone to comment on the reports online? One person has raised his hand. I would like to remind everyone to use the star 9 and raise their hand. In addition, we accept your comments on the phone. We would like to stop the spread of the virus and maintain a good atmosphere. My name is Iksan and I am a police officer.

36:57Speaker 1

I am calling the police. Cruel traitors. I hate traitors. They make our women lose their jobs. They rape our women in jails. I hate traitors. Can you please mute it? I just...

37:06Speaker 2

So, we are listening to the opinions of the public.

37:09Speaker 3

This is a new world. So, I am asking CET Adon to find out what kind of talk is acceptable and what is not. Thank you, Mayor Keita.

37:23 – 44:02Speaker 2

Even if the speaker is muted, I think it is important to note that it has not been removed from the line. The speech we heard now is what we heard before this evening's session. I think a discussion on this is necessary before we allow the first amendment to proceed. So, we need to consider whether we need to tolerate this kind of speech in a public place. I think it is important to conduct these inspections tonight. Because there are young people here, we are listening to the speech that is possible to hear when the speaker continues. If we have a choice, we would like to remove those who are not of age from it. Because we think it is very appropriate. With all this said, I would like to explain why I have to give instructions to Mayor Kate, who will take a little more time to conduct some inspections on the policy of our city, when I have spoken. So, please help us. If the speaker's instructions are not in accordance with the first amendment and are not in accordance with the law, please let them continue. Therefore, the question raised is whether this statement reflects the nature of the city about the change that hinders the public. What is the change that hinders? We have been told about this in San Rafael. This was followed by the Government Code. The act of stopping the practice of yoga is a violation of the law of the body and the law of the body is a violation of the law of the body. The act of stopping the practice of yoga is a violation of the law of the body and the law of the body. Now, in the view of some, the speech we just heard may be included in the Constitution, but it will not be considered as a speech that prohibits the First Amendment. For example, if the speaker stands here in the podium, the comments made will be a reasonable speech according to the law that prohibits the First Amendment. If the speaker allows himself to leave the podium after the time is up, if he continues to speak and give similar opinions, it will not be permissible. If that happens, it would be permissible to expel the speaker. But when we come back to our policy, it is the same as what I read in the Government Code, that San Rafael's Law 7.1 is a statement or action that hinders the activities of the Legislative Assembly. For example, as I said, shout at the people who are speaking, don't hesitate to speak, and spam in the chat. This is not a chat. Spamming is something we have experienced in the past when we get online comments like this. On that day, one of our Zoom meetings, we were able to use the chat function and add more interesting words. Fortunately, I don't think there is such a possibility now, because we can prevent such things from happening. Therefore, the message in such a way will be different for us. I am saying this because of the first comments I heard this evening. Most of the people who were there did not hear it, but the council heard it before the close session. The main thing is to talk about the differences between the terms of the term and the terms of the term. However, even if a term is used against an employee, it will not be counted as a term by law. Therefore, it is only the speech that comes from the legal Ashwila Nirvajanam. Such speeches should not be allowed in this world. We are willing to prevent it. And before we continue, I have one more thing to say about the Vidvesha Prasangam. The speech we just heard has a specific connection to this, because it mentions some members of the society and conducts hostile demonstrations against them. According to Sanderfeld, the speech is a very painful speech that insults people in the name of religion, religion, religion, language, or similar characteristics. But if it does not go against the law, it will be protected under the First Amendment. So, my advice is to allow the Mayor to listen to a speech like the one we just heard, even if we stop it, and continue in line with the speech. Such speech is permissible. No matter how much hateful it is, no matter how much criticism it is, everyone in this room, especially those in the dais, no matter how much hateful it is, we have nothing else to do but to support each other. Thank you for living in a country with the First Amendment, for the freedom of opinion, for the freedom of demand, for the opportunity to live. Continue as the Mayor says. Prove that you are willing to speak only about things that are personal to you and to avoid such events. However, it is important to understand why we are not doing anything, despite the fact that the council chosen by a politician and a police chief, including our youth, is doing nothing. Yes, that's right. But I think it's very important that we are able to talk about it and explain it tonight. Thank you, Mayor Kate, for allowing me to share these comments. Thank you, CET Attorney.

44:02 – 44:35Speaker 3

We appreciate it. We appreciate that we are making public participation accessible. We welcome it. We expect it to be inclusive and inclusive. So, I know that we muted the speaker. If there is anything to be shared with the speaker, it will be only in the reports of the council members with the most direction. We are ready to hear your views. Let it be there. Therefore, it will be enough if you conduct only your consent proposal. Give me a minute.

44:49 – 45:21Speaker 2

Thank you very much, CET Adornik, for raising the freedom of speech. Yes. I have a big wish for an experiment. I want to go down to the streets of Beverly. As I said about the Varsky case, Mayor Kurt, Mayor Danger, you are a bad guy. Thank you for your comments. We will end the general comments here. Please mute the video. Thank you. I don't see anyone else's hand raised. Okay. Let's give everyone a minute.

45:21 – 46:13Speaker 3

I think we took a few minutes. Thank you. Good general comments. Okay, let's move on to the consent calendar. We have two to two items. Umm, I want to talk freely, but we will accept the general opinions of all units, but I want to change it freely, that is fleet replacement. Umm, about the sword we got from the special Sustira Sanfell, so we need to respond to it. Are there any other units that the council wants to change? I can't see anything. I'm opening a general opinion on the entire agreement agenda. That is, from 2 to I to L. So if you want to say your opinion on the agreement agenda, you are welcome to say which part of Summerfelt you live in. The microphone went up. There it is.

46:20 – 47:46Speaker 2

Hello, my name is Joss Guzman. I am representing Aliados Health here at Marin County, Marin Community Clinic, Marin CET Health and Wellness Center, Reader Center, etc. I represent 17 community health centers in 6 counties. These are the main community health centers in this city. I would like to thank the Mayor and CET Council for the National Health Center Week. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. We would like to express our gratitude to all of you who have contributed to the development of community health centres throughout the city and the region. As indicated in the statement, the community health centers in the county have donated 3 lakhs to 57,000 patients. These details are from 2025. This is in the Marain County. Thank you again for accepting the National Health Center Week and for your continued support for the community health centers in the city. We would like to continue our partnership to ensure the health and well-being of our community. Thank you. Once again, my name is Jos Guzman. I represent Aliados Health.

47:46 – 48:18Speaker 3

Thank you, Jos. That was about the presentation that was part of our Consent Agenda. Thank you. Does anyone else have anything to say about the Consent Calendar? No one is seeing the public in the room. Is there any public opinion online? No one is seeing it as something that has been raised. Give me a minute. Thank you. I don't see anyone who has raised their hand. We will end the online general opinion. Oh, no. Yes, I will accept a vote on all the things that are in question. Go ahead. Yes, we will allow the living to talk about it.

48:18Speaker 2

Do you intend to do so?

48:19Speaker 3

I intend to do so. I intend to do so.

48:20Speaker 4

I intend to do so. Please take the vote. Council Angam Bushi. Yes. Council Angam Hill.

48:25Speaker 4

Vice Mayor Kurtz. Yes. Council Angam Edhinsaloti. Yes.

48:28 – 48:56Speaker 3

Mayor Kettan. Yes. That vote passed from 5 to Poojam. Then it was about fleet replacement. We received a great letter from Sustainable San Rafael saying that all vehicles, especially motor cycles, police-administrative vehicles, and electric vehicles were not included in the electric vehicle pool. Therefore, I expect the chief to be able to explain it to us and respond to their wishes. Certainly. Thank you, Mayor Kate.

48:56 – 50:52Speaker 2

You were a great help to the council. We received the letter you sent. I spoke directly with the leader of that group, answered some questions, explained some things related to police motorcycles and staff cars. We have started changes to some electric vehicles. We have two electric vehicles in our fleet. One is driven by a police captain, the other is provided by a police lieutenant or special operations lieutenant. One of the vehicles included in the staff report for change was provided to an undercover operator. They will be under surveillance for some circumstances. The vehicle has very special needs. Electric vehicles are not suitable for such activities. This is another experience we have about the place where our charging infrastructure is. That is, the electric vehicles we use are first handed over to the detectives. For detectives who change their on-call responsibilities. In some cases, on-call responsibilities are taken home by the operator vehicle to be used after work. When a detective vehicle is used at work, there are chances that it does not have the required charge to reach home. That is why we continue to offer other services. We continue to provide emergency services, but in the case of these vehicles, we have specially consulted the CET Manager and the Health Department and reviewed our options. Currently, we are in favor of more medical care for our vehicle, but now these vehicle manufacturers have made emergency services available to those in need.

50:58 – 51:14Speaker 3

Thank you, Chief. That was a very good explanation. I understand the practical limitations. Do you have any questions for the council on this matter? Thank you for your attention in this matter. Moreover, this change should be in a way that stops our employees from working. Because that is the most important thing. Thank you. Therefore, I would like to express my condolences on this matter.

51:19 – 51:33Speaker 4

That's why, to approve the completion and to file a notice, I request the CET clerk to pardon me. Is that it? No, I'm sorry. I made a mistake. Please approve the approval. Please approve the approval. That's it. Yes. I want to do that. Yes. Stop. Let's do it. Two I's. Two I's.

51:35Speaker 3

Yes. Second. The bill was passed on the 2nd.

51:40Speaker 4

Please conduct the voting. Council Angam Bushi. Aye. Council Angam Hill. Aye. Vice Mayor Kurtz. Aye. Council Angam Ensloti. Aye. Mayor Kettan. Aye.

51:49 – 52:05Speaker 3

The bill was passed on the 5th to the 6th. Thank you. We have two Grand Jury reports that the Council will announce this evening. The first one is the Grand Jury report on MCE Marine Clean Energy. We will inform the CET Manager in the meantime.

52:08 – 53:09Speaker 2

Just like the Mayor said, I will make a quick announcement. In fact, these are the official reports of the staff of the two Grand Jury reports. One is related to marine clean energy, and the other is related to special districts. As I mentioned earlier, the Council has announced two of the four Grand Jury reports that have been published in the past few weeks. There is a third report that I think is of interest to the city, but it has not been requested by the city to repeat it. This is related to the findings and recommendations related to the county measure, a park and open space. For the sake of this project, to repeat the report related to it, I would like to point out that Jeevanakar is working with the office of the county administrator and with other cities. Thank you very much. Greetings, Mayor, CET Council members. I hope everyone is doing well.

53:09 – 56:36Speaker 3

I have come here to speak about the three reasons why the Grand Jury for Marine Clean Energy is against it. In the Civil Grand Jury report on Marine Clean Energy, we need to pass an order to the City Council to re-appoint San Rafael City Mayor. The city has 90 days to re-appoint San Rafael City Mayor. You will notice that there is a completely different experience in the regions next to you, right? So let's talk a little about the West. The report on the management methods and management methods of MCE Marine Clean Energy is a community choice aggregator for most houses and businesses in San Rafael, as well as 37 other cities, towns and counties. According to the report, the 34-member director board of MCE has not made a significant contribution. The board gave MCE management a lot of power and increased the cost by more than $200 million last year. Let me remind you that MCE is operating through a joint powers agreement. The board of MCE is not the San Rafael CET Council, but the MCE Board. Therefore, there were two divisions and two subordinates. The first division is F4. It is only to be understood that a company as big as MCE is the ultimate knowledge for many board members. We are working on it. The city is working on it, again. Then F5. All MCE board members are locally selected employees. They have to spend their maximum time and resources. Unfortunately, the schedule of meetings is often bad. For the most part, that is not enough. Again, we are working on it. Then there are two more proposals. First of all, on December 31, R5 should ensure that all the rights of the MCU and, if possible, the 38 rights included in the MCU are part of the legal board of directors or that all the representatives of the board of directors are part of the board of directors. This recommendation will not be implemented now, but it will be proposed later. The last suggestion is that the board should re-evaluate the rights of all members of the NACOM MCU and, if possible, the 38 members of the MCU and those who have the most financial resources in the previous election as members of the board. Do you have any comments on this suggestion?

56:52 – 58:10Speaker 2

Yes, I will add a few more things. The findings and instructions in the report are to be made clear by the Grand Jury, by the County, by the MC, or by any of the agencies involved in it. I think that the CET Council is doing these two things in many ways, just as it has done in the case of two specific recommendations. Or, your laws are all being followed by following those recommendations. They make sure that people have an interest and general knowledge in the matter, and that they will try their best to participate in meetings according to the expectations of the councils that rule them. What the Grand Jury report wants to say is this. It is about the need for a strong statement that says, knowledge, medicine, and the necessary time to act in that position. I will end it there. I will end my report with that. Thank you.

58:12 – 58:55Speaker 3

Thank you, Priya. Do you have any questions for the Council? Okay, we will accept your comments. But I don't see any questions. Since we don't see any questions, we will open up to the public's opinions on this matter. If you have anything to say about the decision of the Grand Jury of MCE, you can say it now. I don't see anyone in the room. Does anyone online have anything to say about this matter? I don't see any hands raised. Okay. Thank you. I will finish the online public opinion and return to the discussions. I know you have a desire to give your opinion. So let's start first. If you have anything to say to our representative at MCE, let's hear it first. Let's continue to the vice mayor. After that, we will share more opinions with everyone.

58:55 – 59:59Speaker 4

Yes, thank you. No, I appreciate the effort taken to prepare this report. I think this is a good introduction to the findings and instructions of the Grand Jury. This is a Marine Grand Jury consisting of 38 different districts, cities, and counties. Therefore, I think that the representation of the MCE, which is based on the views of the community we serve, including the employment of locally selected employees and responsible confirmation, is valuable. This is the sixth year since I started to understand employment in the MCE. Therefore, I will not be involved in this for the next year. But it would be good to find a person who knows about energy and daily activities. Even so, it would be an honor for us to select such a person. Therefore, I fully support this move forward. Thank you. Thank you, Vice Mayor. Does anyone have any comments?

1:00:02 – 1:00:25Speaker 3

I commend the actions that have been taken in the Grand Jury Report, the events that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking place at the MCI, and the actions that are taking

1:00:26 – 1:00:44Speaker 2

Thank you, Mayor. I think that Marine Clean Energy is very good in terms of the purpose, vision and quality of the now known as MCE. I think that the questions raised about the release of the Marine Civil Grand Jury are relevant. I am grateful to be able to present it in front of the Council for suggestions. Thank you. Thank you, Councilor Angambushi.

1:00:53 – 1:02:45Speaker 3

My opinion is that this is the second time that we are going to talk about the quality of the election in the case of the Poromoon Civil Grand Jury. In both these reports, I was very interested in the way in which the part of the city and the situation were clearly and thoroughly explained, and the way in which they were combined and elaborated. I know that the main aim of these reports is to establish a relationship between the Grand Jury and UN. Two great achievements and achievements Thank you. Let me be brief. Thank you for that announcement. I would like to point out that this is an extraordinary board with 34 members. So, thank you to the Council members for participating in such a large group. So, I am happy that the Grand Jury paid attention to this. Let me tell the public, we have a law and a constitutional amendment. We will continue it in the coming years. So, when the celebrations take place, there will always be at least two people to represent San Rafael. So, thank you to all the people who did it. I welcome your suggestion. Go ahead. Thank you, Mayor. So, MC of the Marine County Civil Grand Jury, I request the Mayor to pass the request to submit the report of Marine Clean Energy in San Rafael City to the Mayor. In reality, this is called MC, Clean Energy. But some of the wrong actions show the need for substantial changes. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected. The second one was rejected.

1:02:54 – 1:06:43Speaker 2

Okay, I can handle this. So, this is the second report that the city has to submit again within the 90 days of the legal deadline. This is a report related to the grand jury meeting of municipalities, which is very important in most and all municipalities for residents who live in the county. It is important to optimise the costs of the reports and the costs of the mares. Once again, we have our staff report. It is important to authorise the mares in your pocket. There are a wide range of findings from F1 to F7. In the opinion of the Grand Jury, I agree that some of the administrative activities of certain districts are the cause of loneliness. There are big districts and small districts. Some of these services are important, and some of the small districts have more benefits in fulfilling their goals and goals, according to the Grand Jury, including the benefits of the living. For example, our sanitary districts, water districts, and fire districts that provide fire services have a wide range of costs and benefits. This report is based on the fact that we need to investigate ways to eliminate the restrictions imposed on our society, such as high consumption, low cost, and high consumption. There are also a number of recommendations that we need to respond to. All the district boards must conduct their first half-year recruitment survey. This is not specifically intended for San Rafael. However, as stated in the staff report, we are actively investigating the opportunities for recruitment. The two shown here seem to have been noticed earlier. Marinewood Community Services District is connected to Fire Services and San Rafael Sanitary District is connected to the City of San Rafael as a Central Marine Sanitation District. Therefore, I would like to conclude by saying that San Rafael Pintune is the only place where we can test the opportunity for action, even if it is difficult to understand. I know that Marin Lafgo and Maren Lafgo have tested this in many situations. According to the council's instructions, the CET staff will be part of the two centers where we operate on a monthly basis. That's why I'm returning this to the Mayor and the Council. Thank you.

1:06:43Speaker 3

Do you have any questions about this bill?

1:06:46 – 1:07:25Speaker 2

Yes, Council Angam Hill. I think all these proposals are clearly not in favor of San Rafael. That's my question. If we don't have to respond to the questions that a civil grand jury needs to respond to us, are they trying to throw the municipalities into the gutter? Or was that a mistake? Or anything else? I don't know if I can talk about the grand jury's intentions. If we get the opportunity to give an opinion within a reasonable range, we will investigate it. Thank you.

1:07:31 – 1:07:45Speaker 3

Thank you. I don't see any other questions. I would like to hear the opinions of the public about this bill. If you would like to hear the opinions of the public in the chamber, now is the time to do so. No one is coming forward. Is there anyone online to give their opinion on this matter?

1:07:45Speaker 4

No one has raised their hand.

1:07:47Speaker 3

But let me remind everyone that the star 9 will be raised. No one has raised their hand. Thank you. I would like to hear the opinions of the public. I would like to hear the opinions of the public. Vice Mayor, more opinions.

1:07:59 – 1:08:33Speaker 4

I agree with most of the things that have been said in this report. I think this is a meeting that we have held many times. The message in this report clearly shows that a great effort is needed to carry out humanitarian activities. In various events related to this, I praise the activities that Saint Raphael has done so far. If we take the matter of our response, it is a response itself. Now that is the best solution. Since it is an unproven matter, thank you Council Angam Hill.

1:08:34 – 1:09:11Speaker 2

Comments Thank you Mayor Kate Let me add more to Vice Mayor's comments and say that the report on the opportunities for integration is promising, it has benefits, but as Vice Mayor pointed out, there are many difficulties in it. Together, they say that it is because of the lack of support that immigration often takes place. Especially in a moment when there are big waves. I encourage the questions. We think that we can bring the best immigration system to our society through small districts.

1:09:11Speaker 3

Thank you. Council member Yuran Oli, comments.

1:09:14 – 1:09:33Speaker 4

Yes, I fully agree with what has been said. I fully agree with the report. I think it is very important to investigate the various incidents on the ground and to unite them when possible. Let the school boards that are not included in this be included.

1:09:34 – 1:10:58Speaker 3

I have to say that. Thank you. Thank you, Councilor Angambushi. Comments. This is my opinion. We are witnessing the dream in San Rafael. We are moving forward with the initiative and carrying out the hard work for it. Therefore, I believe that our actions and strategic methods are doing well to respond to this. Thank you. I would like to thank the Grand Jury for examining this. This is out of the jurisdiction of San Rafael City. However, San Rafael Sanitation District is included in this. When the administrative activities started, we were busy with the Grand Jury reports ahead of us. We are just starting to discuss it officially. But in the meantime, we are working on an action plan. As the Vice Mayor said, it will take time. For many reasons, we have been working on this for two and a half years. We are trying to change the rules and rules, but the Grand Jury is paying attention to this. I believe that bringing more equality to Marin County will be beneficial for our residents and residents. Therefore, I am waiting to see how other agencies are doing this in particular districts. Therefore, I am waiting to see how other agencies are doing this in particular districts. Therefore, I am waiting to see how other agencies are doing this in particular districts. Therefore, I am waiting to see how other agencies are doing this in particular districts. Therefore, I am waiting to see how other agencies are doing this in particular districts. Please accept the request to authorize Mayor Opedan to re-establish the San Rafael City, which is a major asset to the Marine County Civil Grand Jury Report and is low-cost.

1:11:21Speaker 3

Do you have a staff report on this? Okay. I will send the CET attorney to you. Thank you Mayor, Kate, Council members.

1:11:27 – 1:15:57Speaker 2

Tonight I will announce the report on 3C. According to the information added to the staff report, Paul Nasio will be appointed as the current CET Manager from today onwards. In addition, he will be granted the right to work. Mr. Nasio was wearing a navy blue suit and a white shirt next to me. Mr. Nasio served as the finance director of the city since 2023. Then he became the acting CET manager in February and the CET manager in mid-April. We are now consulting with the Staff Council to get him settled. I would like to review some of the important things in the Charter. They have also been included in the Staff Report. The CET Charter has been fully implemented in this Charter. Mr. Nasio has been appointed to rule until the end of time. The Council has the full authority to remove the CET Manager at any time without showing any reason. This bill will be in effect until August 31, 2028. After that, it will be updated every two years. It is important to talk about allowances for a while. Apart from the general salary raised by July 1 to the residents of the town hall, the CET manager does not pay much salary. The executive management staff who were not represented received a salary increase. Mr. Nassio's salary is expected to increase from January 1 to March 4. So this is not a new or special increase. Sorry, July 1. That was a wrong announcement. July 1. So this is not a new or special increase. All the other directors get the same feedback, but he is the only one who gets the same feedback. I would like to correct two things because I am aware that some of the things that were not covered in the report are in the staff report. Until the last minute, we were working on the report. There were some things that were forgotten to be included in the staff report. They are important, but I think it is important to include them. According to the Act, this should be a regular agenda item according to the Government Code. There is an opinion in the Staff Report about the appropriate approval for the CET Manager. According to Section 9G of the Regulation, if there are any problems to be addressed on June 30, 2028, it should be done. This is a wrong opinion in the Staff Report. There is detailed information in the last paragraph. In Section 7D, which I mentioned, the last council meeting to take place was not on June 30, 2028, but on March 1. However, in the staff report and paragraph of the meeting to discuss the council, it is clearly stated that it was on January 31, 2028. There is also a mistake in the government code. It affects me greatly. Because the Brown Act has made a small change. It used to be 5-4-9-5-3-C-3. Now it has changed to 5-4-9-5-3-D-3. It has been removed from the bill. It is wrong in the staff report. I would like to draw your attention to that. Those who have found such things, congratulations. I was able to resolve it last night because someone in this room found it. Therefore, let me make it clear that these are not just the mistakes in the staff report, but also in the Carrar. Tonight, we will announce the Carrar that has been approved for your application and approval. My wish is that the approval of the Carrar approved by our current CET Manager, Paul Nasio, should be accepted as it is. With that, I end my staff report. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. Thank you, CET Attorney.

1:15:57 – 1:16:20Speaker 3

Thank you to the people in the staff report. We will have time to answer your questions. But let us start with the questions we always ask. Do you have any questions? No one in the council has any questions. I would like to ask for public opinion on this matter. Is there anyone in the assembly to give an opinion on this matter? I don't see anyone coming forward. So, is there anyone in the online community who has anything to say on this matter? I see one hand raised.

1:16:31 – 1:16:44Speaker 4

Hello. Hello. Please don't vote on this issue. The reason is that Basio is not the right person to be the CET manager. He is a big liar. I am. I am a follower. Please mute me.

1:16:45 – 1:18:20Speaker 2

We have received a notification from the CET attorney. I can hear a lot of voices calling. So, can we check where we stand? Yes, we discussed this at the beginning of the meeting. So, I won't repeat what I said earlier. However, we have to listen to the opinions of the public through Zoom because our Constitutional Assembly has brought a new law. Since there is no 7-second time limit for radio shows, we are now hearing the worst words that we don't like to hear. This is a matter that surprises the society. Even so, the public is allowed to speak out in public. According to our First Amendment, it is not allowed to do so in such a public place. The person who spoke just now had a discussion about race and ethnicity. Of course, it is a public speech. If there was another possibility, this could have happened. For example, you cannot conduct such public speeches in the workplace. But here, we will have to listen to this speech. Therefore, I advise the Mayor to allow the speaker to speak until the given time. I think that my words will help those who are watching this meeting now and those who are watching it later to understand why this speech was allowed.

1:18:24 – 1:18:40Speaker 3

Thank you for that explanation. I will ask the person I am talking to. You don't have to, but if you are interested in saying which part of San Rafael you live in, you are welcome. That would be fine. You can do that. Even if you find this strange, we expect that you will give useful feedback to the council. Timer started. Devaai.

1:18:51 – 1:19:09Speaker 4

Okay. Oh Mayor, I'm stuck in the middle of this city. Then believe me, this council manager or whatever his name is, he will start setting up speed bumps on 101 freeway. Because we know how people in Italy behave. Yes, that's why he's begging you. Mayor, listen, you're a fool.

1:19:20 – 1:19:57Speaker 3

Welcome to our free country where you can say anything you want. Therefore, we will move forward by emphasizing the status and value of democracy. We are obligated to listen to opinions that do not necessarily represent the roots and roots of our society and do not represent them. Therefore, there are no more public opinions. I object to saying that more public opinions were a bad opinion. We would like to hear the opinions of the council representing the dignity, importance and happiness of this agenda.

1:20:00 – 1:21:02Speaker 4

Vice Mayor Thank you. I fully support the decision to appoint Paul DiCio as our Executive City Manager. Mr. Nasio, you are a newbie in the activities we do. It is clear how much you help us to achieve the goals we aim for with your experience and passion. I appreciate the self-confidence you show when you lead us. In today's world, your financial position is very valuable to our activities. I appreciate that. I look forward to working with you in the coming years.

1:21:02 – 1:21:48Speaker 3

Thank you, Councilor Angambushi. I am happy to be part of this agenda. Paul is happy to see the change in our financial manager to the CET manager. He is working in a way that concentrates attention on our strategic goals and encourages humanity. Therefore, I am sure that Paul's leadership will be very positive. I am waiting for his approval. Thank you, Council Angam Hill.

1:21:49 – 1:22:09Speaker 2

Thank you, Mayor. I am waiting to vote for this bill that will make Paul Nasio our current CET Manager. Paul, you have contributed to our city with all your efforts and experience. I think it will continue. Thank you. Thank you, Council Angam Uranguli.

1:22:09 – 1:22:36Speaker 4

Thank you, Mayor. I am very happy to implement this bill. I think it is a very auspicious time for us to have you as the Acting CET Manager. Your ability to prepare the budget for your financial status and the city is very great. You have been able to work with the people and maintain their support. I am very happy to appoint you as our new CET Manager. We have a lot to do. So, I am very happy. Thank you.

1:22:46 – 1:23:53Speaker 3

Thank you. I am very happy to have included this in today's agenda. I know that you have the same passion as everyone in DAS. So, let's make this useful right away. I appreciate everything you said. The way you handled things during the last few months of the budget is unusual. This is because of your long-term experience in public service. You have previously played the role of CET Manager. You have also played various roles in other cities. That experience will be a big boost for all of us at Sunfell. You must have heard this yourself. We are very lucky to have you here. We are happy to have included this in our agenda. I would also like to thank the CET Attorney for implementing this agreement. I know that you don't usually talk. But before the council votes, you can say anything you want to say. Thank you. Let me just say that I am very happy to be here.

1:23:53 – 1:24:14Speaker 2

I would like to see the council and staff working together to make this process happen. I am proud of the recognition I have received. I am ready to move forward. So, thank you very much for believing in me. Welcome. Vice Mayor, may I present the statement?

1:24:14Speaker 3

Certainly. Thank you.

1:24:16 – 1:24:37Speaker 4

I present the statement that Paul Nasio will be appointed as the CET Manager from August 17, 2026. According to Charter Section 8, I request the Mayor to commit to the CET Manager position as soon as possible. The second instruction.

1:24:37Speaker 3

The Prime Minister announced and received the second instruction. Please call the name. Council Angam Bushi. Yes. Council Angam Hill.

1:24:43 – 1:25:06Speaker 3

Vice Mayor Kurtz. Yes. Council Angam Mars Galani. Yes. Mayor Kate. Yes. The Prime Minister passed the vote from 5 to Poojam. At the beginning of the campaign, the public had the opportunity to give their opinions. It was not fully used. So, since we introduced it at the beginning, there will be no public opinion this evening. Since there is nothing left in the agenda, this campaign is terminated. Shubha Ratri.
