Excuse me, can you stick to the topic, ma'am? You're wasting your time. You have three minutes.
We have asked you to stick to the comment.
You know what? I want to hear what you wanted to talk about. Well, if you let me. During your three minutes.
yes I was just I would like to know when did the project begin did a few years ago I believe it was I believe it was 2022. Oh I do want to thank you and your staff for for the diligence and for the success of this program, and it seems as though it's a really good way to also educate the management and owners for this process, and hopefully less and less as we go forward.
Yes, it seems that there's maybe a little bit of a misunderstanding on the owner's part in terms of what the responsibilities are, and I would suggest that, you know, we have these meetings every year for landlords and for tenants separately that go over exactly what the responsibility is, so it's really clear and not something that just makes sense maybe to an owner, but so that you can really go by the guidelines and the law. So I would I think it would be really helpful. I think you meant well, but I think the law might be a little bit different than what you had in mind.
students so if you've got community college and you see close together you know obviously that could potentially benefit both depending on who develops and owns the housings but let me double check that I'm right on the scope of that okay great that's that's all I had for now Commissioner Dudek oh I did have a question but I didn't know I was in the queue getting back to AB 2128 yes I know HR 1 I believe it is in the big beautiful bill mandates that everybody work regardless of any extenuating circumstances, et cetera, et cetera. And I know that this program does have a voluntary work program…
I'm sure that the legal arguments are in place.
I keep coming up in the queue, and I do have a question.
I think it's because I'm not turning it off. Okay. Where's my question here? Hmm.
Commissioner yeah okay I wondered if you could explain again when something is held held in committee exactly what that means and sure and then when it dies it dies does was sometimes when things died do they come back maybe in a different form
okay I have a comment yeah I just have a comment that it's really good to see you again thank you and I remember when we were up at the in Sacramento at the housing conference in March, last March, this Prop 1, the hope for Prop 1 was everywhere. And so it really shows how that work paid off, and it will be a valid measure.
Yes, I'm assuming that you're bringing it up because we're going to have some new board members. But I'm wondering, since we're going to have some new board members, if we might want to include them in the conversation and the direction and path that we take or that we don't take. And so I'm wondering if we should, you know, keep this And the hopper, but maybe discuss it after the election and after we have the board confirmed. The total board confirmed. Just a thought.
Yes, I'm very grateful that you brought up the topic. I mean, that Commissioner Ambry's brought up the topic today. My only concern is that to, you know, I don't know if anyone would agree with this, but to ask staff to start looking at things that we're recommending may not leave the door open for new ideas that may come up we haven't thought about. And so when I said, I thought, would be great to I would like to hold the idea to even directly staff at this time until we have the whole board because they may have some ideas we haven't thought of so I'd like to suggest that we take the idea…
Yes, my idea remains taking the idea, but I agree with
Is that agreeable? I think December would be fine because the new boards here and we can Okay, it's the direction for December then I Looks that way. Looks that way.
