“Thank you, Rebecca. I want to add that it is possible for us to answer questions at the end of a session, at the end of a meeting, and that is permissible under the Brown Act. But these questions that you asked are operational, and as the mayor said, please refer them to the city manager. Thank you.”

“Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you for the presentation. It's good to see the progress that you've made and the, I won't say creative solutions that Caltrain is using to try to increase ridership. I think it's a little bit surprising for people who remember electrification and before electrification, I think we all expected it to go up to 2019 levels. Obviously, that isn't true. Do you know why that trend line is happening. It seems like that's true, not just for Caltrain, before other agencies as well. Is this still a combination of work from home policies, just people who have gotten…”

“Yeah, thank you. I am on the LPMG and we'll be having a meeting Thursday, but we're talking at that meeting about events, I believe, and the Caltrain usage during events, which is good, but not, you know, we don't always have a BTS. We don't always have a World Cup, unfortunately. So those are good things. But as you say, the most reliable commuters hopefully will come back to the station. I just want to say that I personally really like the electrified Caltrain. I have a three-year-old who really likes trains. So we like to see it go by. We like to take the train down to Santa Clara. They…”

“Yes, thank you. I would appreciate that. And especially in my experience, a lot of those were focused in the North Bay, like they were in the San Francisco area and around there. And I think it would be good to have those locations in the South Bay as well. Thank you.”

“Thank you. Going back for a second round. To piggyback on the Vice Mayor's statement about the encampments, are you sending a representative to the Sunnyvale Unhoused Collaborative meeting that's put on by the County of Santa Clara? I feel like your presence there, Caltrain's presence there in general, would be appreciated. That's, I believe, the first Friday of the month, every month. Supervisor Lee's office would likely have more information about that. But if there are encampments routinely on Caltrain property, that's a space where local organizations have a scheduled get together to talk…”

“I just want to thank you for coming and giving public comment at your age. I know it's difficult and I see your parents are out there and proud of you. So thank you. And thank you so much for your civic participation at this young age. It's great to see young people engaged. I know the Vice Mayor already suggested our Teen Advisory Committee, but I would like to encourage you again to keep that in mind. Thank you.”

“Oh, I had, based on the young man's comment, I was curious if Caltrain would be interested in presenting to our teen advisory committee. We have a teen advisory, an all-ages and an accessibility committee, all of which are handled through staff. Yeah, absolutely. We'd be happy to. Great. Thank you.”

“um thank you i think my colleagues have covered most of my questions so thank you so much for that discussion and thank you to staff for the hard work on accomplishing all these goals that are important to the city and the projects that myself and my council colleagues have put forward i'm personally really happy about the safe routes to school revitalization that i put out this year the first meeting is tomorrow, I believe, at four for Sunnyvale School District. I have a small question about that, actually. I haven't gotten anything about as a parent about it. What communication channels are…”

“And then as Council Member Chang mentioned, this is my first time encountering this. For my reference, how many of these units are being built in the city? How many have we seen since the last IHO update or how many townhomes, how many condos, how many apartments are we talking about? How many are we looking at?”

“Thank you. I agree with the Mayor in that I feel like the in lieu housing has room to shift given the Mayor's justifications there and as many of as my colleagues and the members of the public have said it seems unwise at this time to pursue increasing our percentage. I am interested, as Council Member Sall said, in looking at this on a schedule. I don't know if the three years that San Francisco has is reasonable for us, but I would like to see this looked at as soon as market conditions permit. I'm Everything's a little bit crazy right now with the market, with international relations. But…”

“Thank you for the presentation and thank you for the hard work. I really appreciate the depth and the breadth of the organizations that you reached out to this to get a statistically significant survey set. And to me, as Council Member Srinivasan said, it's interesting seeing how this lines up with the overall for the city and then the gaps that we are seeing. I think that everyone knows, knew to some extent the gaps that we're discussing today. It is nevertheless good to see them quantified with percentages. I think we all knew that North Sunnyvale feels and is in many ways historically…”

“Thank you. And this was also the second point was the focus on the northern zip codes with the corollary that you just added. Thank you. Okay, thank you. I just wanted to be clear about that and I will be voting in support of this motion again. I would like to thank staff for their hard work in this and in quantifying the gaps as the vice mayor has previously expressed in the rest of my colleagues have in the geography where I feel there is a special concentration of need. None of this is because of the current council or because of staff, but because of historic underrepresentation, historic…”

“I would like to thank our Department of Public Safety for two completely different things. First of all, National Night Out. It was a very fun event to go to. My toddler enjoyed the fire truck party. He talked about it for several days afterwards. He was very excited about that. And also for getting the Safe Routes to School website up in time for back to school. uh and looking forward to seeing the maps up but appreciate what's done so far and am very impressed by the quickness which which we were able to organize the working groups for with the various school districts thank you thank you…”

“Thank you. Thank you for your work in this to staff and to our consultants and also to the members of the public who participated in all of the community outreach. We have a community that's very passionate about this and in both directions, people who are passionate for artificial turf and people who are passionate about natural grass turf and I thank both communities for their feedback. I have a quick question, actually, pretty quick question. Slide eight, which I believe is the hours of play on fields. I'm curious about the distribution. So we have the average and then we have the actual,…”

“So I'm asking if there, when you look at a distribution of the, sorry, I'm trying to translate from math to English. When you look at the distribution, are there two distinct buckets? Like is there one group that's not used for very many hours at all and then one bucket of parts that is? Or is it like more spiky than that?”
