City Council - Regular Meeting

Good evening, everyone. Welcome to the City Council regular meeting this Monday, October 19th. Before we begin tonight's meeting, our city clerk would like to make a brief statement regarding the public comment portion of our meeting.

As we begin tonight's meeting, I would like to start us off by recognizing Indigenous Peoples Day, which was observed on October 12th, as an opportunity to honor the history, cultures, and contributions of Indigenous peoples. In that same spirit, the city of San Mateo is proud to proclaim November as Native American Heritage Month, celebrating the rich heritage, resilience, and lasting contributions of Native American communities. We also acknowledge the Ohlone people, the original inhabitants of the land on which San Mateo stands, and recognize the importance of preserving indigenous history,

Here. Thank you. And before we continue, just a small note from the Deputy Mayor.

Hi, everybody. This is our last meeting before Halloween. And so you might be wondering why we are all dressed up like this. We are supposed to be the characters from Inside Out. That is why we are dressed up the way we are tonight. So Council Member Nash is joy. I am disgust. The mayor is fear. Council Member Svirka Guditsky is sadness. And then Council Member Newsom is anger. So I just wanted to provide an explanation and happy Halloween, everybody.

Excellent. Thank you, Deputy Mayor. And welcome to everyone. We are excited to be here in person with options for those who choose not to be in person to still participate remotely. Thank you for your cooperation and for helping us maintain an efficient and accessible meeting environment. There are several ways to participate in public comment on items tonight. For those who are attending here in person, you may complete a yellow request to speak slip and hand it to the city clerk. If you're participating remotely, you may use the raise your hand feature in Zoom and you'll be called upon at th

Thank you all very much. And if you're willing to take a photo with some costume characters, please just wait one moment. Thank you. We have one more ceremonial item. It's Age Up 25th Anniversary. We have a proclamation and we can invite to the podium Michelle Epstein, Manager of Volunteer Ombudsman. Thank you for being with us. So I have a proclamation that I'd like to read and then if you have anything you'd like to say, you're certainly welcome to do so and thank you for joining us. Whereas Age Up has served older adults and people with disabilities living in long-term care facilities throu

Thank you very much. It's a pleasure to recognize you here in City Hall. Thank you for joining us. And if you'll stick with us for one moment, we'd like to take a photo with the proclamation with you. Thank you. Thank you everyone for bearing with us through a number of ceremonial items we wish to celebrate. We're now moving beyond the ceremonial portion of tonight's meeting, which includes the business items being considered by the council. For that reason, I would like to remind all in the room at this time and online that we will be enforcing our rules of decorum. As such, we do not allow f

Thank you, city court. Is there any member of the council who would like to pull an item for the consent calendar? OK, seeing none, if any members of the public would wish to comment on any consent calendar item, now would be the time to make your comment. This is for the consent calendar items only, just the ones that the city clerk has just read. But before we do, I just want to note that there is one Quirk related to item 14, a conflict of interest issue that the deputy mayor would like to indicate at this time, please.

Yes, I need to recuse myself on item 14 as I own real property in the vicinity of that item.

So I think, City Clerk, we can just consider the Deputy Mayor to be abstaining from that one item as we consider this. And thank you for this, Deputy Mayor, and please let us know, City Clerk, about public comments for Consent Calendar.

Thank you. Thank you to everybody who gave public comment. I did want to ask staff if there happened to be any response that they'd like to give based on any public comment we've heard so far.

I think the mayor's already moved, haven't you?

Point of clarification, do we need a second on when we're pulling items or we just need one, only one person needs to pull? Just one.

Yeah, I think what we did just now was pass the other consent challenge items.

ANY QUESTIONS FROM OTHER COUNCIL ANY QUESTIONS FROM OTHER COUNCIL MEMBERS? MEMBERS?

I HAVE A FEW. I HAVE A FEW. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. MAYBE THIS ISN'T TO YOU AS MAYBE THIS ISN'T TO YOU AS MUCH TO THE CITY MANAGER. MUCH TO THE CITY MANAGER. WHAT OTHER LOCATIONS ARE WE WHAT OTHER LOCATIONS ARE WE CURRENTLY USING VERCATA CURRENTLY USING VERCATA SECURITY CAMERAS FOR IN THE SECURITY CAMERAS FOR IN THE CITY?

Thank you. Do we know which camera systems are currently being used by our school districts? Our elementary and high school districts all use surveillance cameras as well from all the entrance and exit points. Do we have any, have we done any homework to see how our system would compare to theirs?

Okay, and then my last question. You said this isn't stored in the cloud and it's not publicly accessible. I would assume, however, if a child was to be lost or maybe thought to be abducted, we'd be able to use this quickly. What would the... What would that look like? How quickly can the PD actually access this coverage if a child is reported lost or considered possibly abducted?

Sorry. Interim Director Silva, I may have a question as well. Thank you. I think I just wanted to ask, I appreciate you sharing some more information about these cameras. Can you can you share if members of the public were wish to learn more about our policy related to them, how they're how they're going to be used, etc. It IS THAT INFORMATION AVAILABLE IS THAT INFORMATION AVAILABLE ON OUR WEBSITE OR HOW MIGHT ON OUR WEBSITE OR HOW MIGHT ON OUR WEBSITE OR HOW MIGHT PEOPLE BE ABLE TO LEARN MORE?

I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS THERE, BUT I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS THERE, BUT I'M NOT SURE IF IT IS THERE, BUT I CAN CHECK ON THAT AND THEN WE CAN I CAN CHECK ON THAT AND THEN WE CAN I CAN CHECK ON THAT AND THEN WE CAN PUT IT OUT. PUT IT OUT. PUT IT OUT. OKAY. OKAY. OKAY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THAT

I just want to say that I appreciate all of the public comment on this item. And I know that this is a difficult topic. But unfortunately, this is the second time that it's happened. And this does not change the consensus of the vote. So I just want to remind folks on the dais that if they're going to pull an item, I respect your right to pull the item. But if the votes aren't there, the votes aren't there.

Sure, OK. I mean, we haven't really pulled for the votes necessarily yet, but I think I understand what you're getting at. I and I don't intend to belabor this. I think I appreciate those who gave public comment tonight. I appreciate staff for giving a bit more information on on this item. And. With that. I'll entertain a motion.

We'll move on to the next item of our agenda, which is general public comment. So members of the public who wish to comment on any item that's not appearing on our agenda tonight may address the city council at this time. State law prevents council from taking action on any matter not on the agenda, but your comments may be referred to staff for follow-up. The council may limit this public comment section to a total of 15 minutes. However, the council has discretion to allow additional time to ensure more speakers have an opportunity to be heard. If needed, an opportunity for additional public

THANK YOU. AND THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO GAVE PUBLIC COMMENT. YES, COUNCIL MEMBER DIAZ-NASH.

YOU'RE MOVING, GETTING READY FOR THE NEXT THING. TO THE CITY MANAGER, PERHAPS SOMEONE FROM STAFF COULD SPEAK WITH THE WOMAN WHO JUST CAME UP TO TALK ABOUT HER ISSUE.

Yes, thank you very much. I think we'll move on to new business which would be item 15 options for a single family, sir. Yes, yes, closed public comment, thank you. Item 15 is options for single family permit streamlining and zoning code updates policy direction. We have Director of Community Development Zachary Dahl and others from Community Development here with us today with a presentation.

Thank you very much for the presentation. At this time, I'll open up the item for public comment. So if anyone's interested in chambers to comment, please give a request to speak slip to City Clerk. If you're remote or on your phone, please indicate by raising your hand you'd like to speak. City Clerk.

THANK YOU, I'LL CLOSE PUBLIC COMMENT AND BRING IT BACK TO THE COUNCIL FOR QUESTIONS AND FEEDBACK. WHO WOULD LIKE TO START? Don't all jump at once. Councilmember Diaz-Nash, thank you.

All right. Thank you to the mayor. Thank you very much for the presentation. And thank you to everybody who made public comment. And thank you for putting up with my elegant hairdo tonight. A couple things, just going through the list. In the agenda report, it talks about policy CD 7.2, single family design, and encouraging single family additions and new dwellings. that address the preservation and enhancement of neighborhood visual and architectural character through context-sensitive building scale, materials, architectural style and details, and privacy. Could you, Director Dahl or staff,

THANK YOU. AND HOW WOULD YOU DEFINE A SMALLER PROJECT? I THINK THAT'S A CONCERN THAT A NUMBER OF THE SPEAKERS HAD. WHAT WOULD TRIGGER THAT?

THANK YOU. AND THERE WERE A NUMBER OF LETTERS WE RECEIVED FROM SOME SPEAKERS TONIGHT TALKING ABOUT HOW IT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT IMPACT THE GLAZEN ONE HISTORIC DISTRICT OR ANY IN THE FUTURE. How would we evaluate projects either in Glazenwood that are not historic or adjacent to Glazenwood and other historic districts today and what may or may not change going forward?

SO THAT WOULD SEEM TO ME TO ADDRESS SHORT OF DEVELOPING A WHOLE NEW HISTORIC DESIGN STANDARD THAT WOULD ADDRESS A NUMBER OF THE CONCERNS THAT WE RECEIVED ABOUT HISTORIC DISTRICT PROPERTIES. that is correct i i think that is something that needs to be shared with the community and brought out because if you're already doing the work we want to make sure that people know about it um going on let's see um So in terms of some of the new streamlining, which I'm all for, I mean, the streamlining was actually one of my blue sky objectives. So I am here to say I really am grateful that you're doing th

IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANTED TO SAY, DIRECTOR DELL?

Great. I would love to have that discussed. And then in terms of parking, one of the comments was made about you had recommendations about tandem parking and other things, but no recommendation tonight about allowing cement on front yards to enable more off-street parking, correct?

I think I've heard from a number of people in North Central where we did make special exception to add more parking in front, that there's really a real desire to pay more attention to the look and feel as well, so that there is more landscaping, there's more rather than just cement. So I'd love to throw that in there for discussion. And I think just to end, since I'm sure other people have questions, I really appreciate the new signage. I think it's a lot more understandable and a lot more graphic, but I think there were a number of discussion or comments made tonight maybe about what else co

So I think the more we can do with that, and I'm sure that the commenters would love to give you their specific suggestions. Thank you.

Thank you very much. Deputy Mayor Fernandez.

First of all, I really appreciate the very expansive overview and our efforts to streamline express permits and multi-department routing. I was wondering if you could speak a little bit about one of the topics that came up in public comment from, I think, two people about expanding access to the meetings, notification of the meetings, and integrating electronic FEEDBACK ON THESE PROJECTS DURING THE PROCESS?

Thank you. Council Member Sierkow-Gorodzki.

Yeah, um, with the move to 100% digital, which I do support, and I do love that. What I worry about is we do have segments of our population that struggle to adapt with technology. So what does that timeline actually look like? And how do we ensure that if someone is not maybe technologically savvy, like, will they still be able to come in and do a paper application?

Do you know what percentage of the time it's digital versus not?

And then the new My San Mateo app, are you able to see where you are in the queue or is there integration?

This might be a different question, but integrating for efficiency?

There was some public comments about more signage for home, for neighbors to have more awareness around the review cycle and what's happening. I do think that's... I actually do think that the neighborhood community engagement is positive. This community in particular, as we've learned over the last couple years, is very invested and is aware when changes are happening. And so I think cutting them out of the process is not favorable to me. But otherwise, I'm supportive.

Thank you. Councilmember Newsom. Thank you. And to start off, I am not angry right now. A couple of questions. Thank you for a great presentation. Very thorough. You mentioned that there's the idea of reduction of hours for the permit center counter hours. Does this mean that the hours would be reduced? I'm assuming we wouldn't be available from nine to five Monday through Friday.

Sure. And in terms of accessibility, do we have any calendar hours available that are not within the 9 to 5 Monday through Friday business hours? Meaning is there one day a week that someone can come in until 7 o'clock at night? Currently, no. Okay. It might be worthwhile to... you know, if we're going to reduce the amount of counter hours to have just one time a week where someone who maybe has a job from 9 to 5 can't get in, it would be interesting to maybe have that one day a week where it's till 6 or 6.30 or something.

I've heard a little bit about this and I think I understand all this now, but the policy basically varies depending on the scope of the project. So I guess I'd like a little more understanding of what makes a minor versus major project, i.e. if you were adding a sunroom, I would assume that would be a minor project, but if you're tearing down all but one wall of your house, that would obviously be a major project. So how is that differentiated in terms of this policy?

Okay. Thank you. That clarification is very helpful. I support what has been said about better notification to the neighbors. I am a little concerned because, you know, 12 adjacent properties in one neighborhood is significantly less than maybe 500 feet, but then you could be in San Mateo Park and 500 feet... is, you know, it's actually the other way. 12 adjacent homes in San Mateo Park is significantly more than 500 feet. So I kind of am on the fence about how I feel about that. I do think that the most important thing though is communication to these neighbors and maybe having a way for them

Thank you. Thank you for clarifying that. Maybe a public service request. So as it stands right now, if your water heater is to crack and break, you are required to get a permit to replace it. Is that accurate? And do we think that that's done most of the time or?

Do we have a policy in place where if someone's water heater is to crack or fail that they can move forward with that replacement and then kind of retroactively pull the permit?

And then my last question was, what constitutes a protected tree? And when it comes to removal, were those permits previously being handled by the city arborist? And have we made this change, if so, obvious on the websites?

Okay. And one more follow-up is, does that mean that if I'm removing a tree but not doing any home remodel, it still goes through the arborist?

Thank you thank you for your question. Thanks for.

Thank you. Okay. I appreciate those who gave public comment. I appreciate those who gave the presentation. I appreciate my council member colleagues who asked a number of questions. And frankly, I do not have further questions and would like to see if we can align on next steps. And I'll try to get us started by indicating that I effectively support staff's recommendations as shown. with perhaps a slight nod to what I feel like I heard a little bit during overall deliberation about increasing electronic access to that which is appropriate in my mind given privacy concerns and potentially inclu

EXCELLENT. THANK YOU FOR THAT. okay let us continue with item sixteen options for food truck operations on private property policy direction director doll will join us again and with him are members of our code enforcement team, and Steven Lizarago. Sorry. Thank you, assistant planner. I mean, he got there eventually.

We can wait just another moment before we can begin with a presentation.

At this time, I'll open up this item for public comment. So if you are in chambers and wish to comment, you may give the clerk a request to speak slip. If you're online, you may raise your hand. If you're on the phone, you may press star nine. So city clerk, do we have any public comment?

Okay, well I will close public comment for this item at this time and bring it back to my fellow council members for questions, feedback, et cetera. Looking around, council members.

Thank you for the presentation. Questions? Can you pull them up? Yep, so number one, I'm a yes, and I actually am indifferent if it's commercial or El Camino. Number two, I'm going to say no. Number three, I think if it's private property, we should get a conditional use permit. And number four is a yes for me. Thank you.

Okay, thank you. Anyone else? Deputy Mayor Fernandez.

First of all, thank you very much for a very comprehensive review. I really appreciate all the time that planning and code enforcement has put into this. And this was one of my blue skies, so I really appreciate that coming forward. A question about language access and equity. With regards to the signage that is being proposed, can you indicate, at least in North Central, which is part of my district, will the proposed signage be in multiple languages?

That's fantastic. And then can you I think maybe this is a larger question. So I very much appreciate but your presentation was very comprehensive. Move it over to the city manager here. This the last time this issue came up with the food truck vendors, and even this issue came up, it comes back to SB 948, which severely ties our hands on what we can do around mobile food vending. And that was passed during COVID. Is that accurate?

Ah, fair. Okay, whatever. It exists on the books now. Is there any... Me and Mayor Lorraine are the current legislative committee. Is there anything that we might be able to do right now because Senator Becker and Assemblywoman Papin are both putting together their legislative packages to be introduced in the new session starting in December? Is there any way that if this council is agreeable to it that we might beseech them to perhaps look at this issue? This keeps coming up and it especially affects my district with regard to... enforcement and I know PD's frustrated. I know my residents are

Okay. So we can talk offline about that?

I think we have three more nods or more.

THANK YOU. BUT BASICALLY FURTHER ADVOCACY BUT BASICALLY FURTHER ADVOCACY FROM THE CITY AND LEADERSHIP FROM THE CITY AND LEADERSHIP WITH REGARDS TO NONSTATIONARY. WITH REGARDS TO NONSTATIONARY.

IF I MAY, AREN'T YOU IF I MAY, AREN'T YOU ESSENTIALLY ASKING ABOUT ESSENTIALLY ASKING ABOUT BOTH?

Let me talk offline with the mayor, and then we can figure it out from there, and then I can talk to you guys, okay?

We have lots of council meetings between now and the end of the year. Thank you. Oh, sorry. And also just to answer the questions. Should the city allow for food trucks to operate on vacant lots? I'm going to say no. Other than hours of operation, what other operational standards should be required for this use? I don't really have any. I mean, I'm fine with whatever the majority is fine on. Should food truck operations be on? Yes, on number three. And yes, on number four. Thank you.

May I ask a clarifying question about number three? Are you saying yes to having food truck operations be allowed on permitted places?

Yes, on permitted or if pot, or potentially pots.

Or potentially pots, okay. Yeah. Okay, so not a conditional use permit, more just in anywhere we have defined, we like to have it. Okay. Thank you. Thank you.

Council Member Newsom. Thank you. Through the mayor, I'm going to make a few comments and kind of scattering of questions, and then I'll answer these questions. I think that there is definitely a concern for example, in Martin Luther King parking lot, there's frequently a large size trailer that's put in the red zone on the weekends in the parking lot, which is a city parking lot. So I do believe that we have a right to enforce that. Is that accurate?

Okay, but specifically in that instance, they're parked in a non-parking space, blocking the right-of-way and making it even difficult for cars to maneuver in the parking lot, that we should be able to enforce that. There's also a few other locations. For example, 3rd and Delaware Street across from the Taco Bell and along the El Camino Real Central Park, there are often vehicles that... pull a trailer, they'll take up multiple parking spaces and they're there for more than the time that a metered spot would be allowed. So again, in those situations, are we not able to enforce parking? I mean,

Um, also definitely here concern in my district, um, South Delaware and con car, they are physically blocking the entire sidewalk. They're leaving a lot of grease and producing a lot of smoke. Um, Um, and then there's the whole aspect of no food handling certification, no facility to wash your hands or use the bathroom because there is no bathroom. Um, So, you know, I in those types of circumstances, I would very much encourage that we work with the county to enforce enforce the food health standards that we have as a county. There's also been a case where near a business park or a good busine

Okay. Another question, when it comes to alcohol consumption, a lot of times these food trucks don't sell alcohol, but then they have people congregated around the food truck consuming alcohol in public spaces. And again, you can't, in California, in a non-event zone, be drinking and have open containers in the public right-of-way. So are we not able to enforce that if we see those circumstances?

ARE THERE ARE AREAS OF CONCERN? That's most of the concerned areas that I've heard about from my constituents. Now I'll go to answering the questions. Should the city allow food trucks to operate on vacant lots? I would say probably not unless, of course, the lot owner is wanting to do that. If they want to do that, then I would assume that we would have to look at this holistically, making sure that they have food handling certification, each booth holds a city business permit and also pays taxes. So, you know, in those types of circumstances, and one of the things we talked about a few years

Let's see. Going down the list, I agree with Deputy Mayor Fernandez about the first, that they shouldn't be allowed to operate on vacant lots. I agree with Council Member Newsom on the second, that the Probably, yes, we would definitely need a conditional use permit, number three. And absolutely yes for number four.

Thank you. Well, I have a question or two. So... we maybe talk a little bit well about maybe the farmers market we have currently at the the drager's sort of area can we can you share like how how did that come about what what what does what could that represent you know i i do is there a conditional use permit being given there or um you know What did we need to do to make that possible?

Okay, so we currently have language in our special events permit resource that can allow for, let's say, a food truck to regularly come to a I guess, are we considering that area a vacant lot? It's owned by somebody, right?

Okay, that's helpful. And just as a reminder for me and perhaps others, do we currently have any sort of distance requirements away from schools for either food trucks or non-motorized vendors?

Okay. And I imagine this is sort of a similar question, and I apologize if it's too remedial or we already sort of went over it, but I seem to recall in the presentation you noted that we cannot make them move. But are we saying beyond the sort of moving violation sort of framework we have right now with regard to food trucks, i.e., we may not allow them to... We may have issues with them staying in a position for a certain amount of time. Maybe this is similar to what Councilmember Newsom was saying.

Right. Thank you. Okay. So I'm a, I'm a little torn at the moment because I sort of feel as though I don't really know what we might like with regard to these questions. Personally, I feel, um, that I appreciate the research conducted and some ideas shared, but to me, I think, um, I may not like, you know, without maybe a little more diving into examples for, you know, from cities that may like answer these questions in various ways and look at like some templates as ideas. I'm not completely sure what good looks like at the moment. But I'm hopeful that maybe we'll have an opportunity in futur

Thank you. So I think you said there were 52 vendors with licenses and 23 are actually residents of San Mateo. That is correct. So I would just like to call that out because I think there is also an opportunity, which is why I said yes to number one. with all the development that's going on and how long it takes for example the downtown has a vacant lot or fish market property is a vacant lot like those could become with conditional use permits from those developers maybe standing areas or markets where we say hey if you operate a food truck go here at lunch or go here during these set hours w

Thank you. And I think I generally agree with that. To me, I think another wrinkle of the conditional use permit is that I think maybe if we were to try something new, if we were to pilot something or take first steps toward something new and different, The conditional use permit, I think, allows us a little more flexibility where we can we can put it into motion. And then if we need to tweak it or something, we it can be temporary and we're not locked into something and have to redo it. But Councilmember Newsom, did you have something else you wanted to add?

Yeah, thank you, Mr. Meyer. I just wanted to say, I think that there are three things that we can really define that are the good best practices. One, they have a business license if they're operating in the city of San Mateo. That's a good first best practice. Two, if they're serving food, they have a food handling certification and county sticker that shows that. And three, that we don't... We don't give favor to people who are not following the rules over people who are following the rules. And we see a big disparity. Food trucks, as we heard, tend to play by the rules, whereas food carts h

Okay, thank you. I don't know if I missed Director Dahl wanting to share anything or staff, anybody.

Yeah, but I mean, I did say that, however, It was B with CUP.

to get your feedback okay thank you uh well i i will say yes to number one um and i think similar to what councilmember sirko gadiski and and councilmember newsome were outlining just now to me i i think i'm somewhat aligned with this idea where um and i appreciate what you just mentioned councilmember newsome as well about uh reminding us to to look at the food trucks versus uh other other vendor types and and see these as more of an opportunity to partner uh perhaps and so with that in mind i think i'll say yes to uh number one um and should it be limited by zone district or location um I me

OK thank you very much for this item thanks everybody for their input and with that. We can go to Reports, Announcements, and Committee Updates, and just ask around who may have any. Councilmember Diaz-Nash.

Okay, quickly, speaking of CCAG, since we last met, I was at the monthly meeting. CCAG is now in the process of interviewing for a new executive director because their previous executive director is now the city manager of Pacifica. And that is an ongoing process. The interviews are in a, hopefully a final stage now, and I'll be able to speak a little bit more about it in future. Then we also received a great presentation on Caltrain and the impact leading up to RTM, the Regional Transit Measure and the impact for Caltrain. That was very helpful. And then on Rethink Waste, i'm on the master pl

THANK YOU FOR THOSE REPORTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS. DOES ANYONE ELSE HAVE ANY? COUNCIL MEMBER NEWSOM?

I have two. So I met with the – I was on the SFO roundtable last week. They passed a noise management rules agreement of which basically how they're going to measure the airlines over the next year. So that was passed recently. and is going to be put in place it was interesting to hear that in san mateo particularly eastern east side of one on a one complaints and noise complaints have been up over the last five or six months part of the the reason they think behind this was that one of the rail runways was closed for for about five months and they suspect that now that that runway is reopened

I just want to notate that today is San Mateo legend Claremac's 90th birthday. So happy 90th birthday to the amazing Claremac. That's it.

Excellent announcement. Anything customer? Okay. I will be brief. I hope. I believe so. I'll just note East Hillsdale Park. Really appreciated the opportunity to come out with staff and enjoy the reopened and renovated East Hillsdale Park. I also want to shout out Andrea and the staff who put together the recent Sea Level Rise Climate Adaptation Plan sort of first steps. We had a packed oak room. So good start on the outreach for that. Dia de los Muertos was awesome, as it always is, at King Center and Park. I saw the Deputy Mayor there. I saw Council Member Newsom and, of course, Powell. Shou

Thank you very much for that timely reminder. And with that, I'll pass it back to Councilmember Newsom. Thank you, Mr. Mayor.

I would like to recognize the great life of Mr. Richard Dick DeLuna. Dick passed away last week at the age of 88. He grew up and was in San Jose and Salinas, but has lived in San Mateo and subsequently in Woodside for about the last 60 years. Dick was the father of seven children, 17 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren and was a real pillar in our community. He was very active in the San Mateo Rotary for 60 years. He supported San Mateo College, St. Mary's College of California. He was very involved in the San Mateo County Historic Association, Sarah High School, and one of my things ne

Thank you. And this meeting is adjourned.
