3.9. Feather River Camp Septic And Water System Repairs
Now moving to item 3.9, which I believe staff is here to read in a title change
the point nine the replacement of
Septic tanks drain
field
Hello council. My name is Quincy Williams and I am the assistant capital improvement project coordinator for Oakland parks recreation youth development
and I'm here to present the
Title change for the recommendation that staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution
authorizing the city administrator to waive the local and small business enterprise requirements and requests for proposal
qualifications for the competitive process to
To execute construction contracts and total amount not to exceed three hundred twelve thousand dollars and eight
three hundred twelve thousand and seventy eight dollars and forty four cents for capital
Repairs and placement at feather River Camp this feather River Camp is located at fifty four sixty nine

seven hundred and sixty two dollars and be aqua one incorporated to replace a drinking water system and a total amount not to exceed
eighty seven thousand two hundred and sixteen and forty four cents and three to adopt

California environmental
quality act findings.
Thank you sir.
Thank you for that and just
noting- for the record this
items be requested to be
scheduled for may fifth city
council agenda on consent and I
will also read at.
In the rule twenty four- the
rule twenty four is that the
septic drain and drinking water
systems are broken and need
replacement without emergency
funding to replace these items.
Camping season will not occur. I do see councilmember Rama Chandran's handling
Thank you. Just as it pertains to scheduling
Because this is being requested to go on consent. Is this funding that's already authorized and this is just execution of the contracts
Or would this money be coming from a new source? It's coming from the emergency repairs
funding source, so
This is the authorization to access those funds to
Pay for the vendors. Okay, and what is that general purpose funds or is there a different code?
There's a different code for that
Okay, if you can please share with my office before the meeting where exactly the funding is coming from. Yes
because
Yeah, thank you. All right
Right. Thank Thank You council president. I was just wanting to hear the waiver rationale
the way we're doing it. It was
make sure that the vendors will
not come in a timely manner-
because of location being five
hours away- that is cost
prohibited for us to be able to
hire someone local and go
through that process second
thing is is that the vendors
that we have- for this
particular. Project have-
intimate knowledge of the
problems and so. Are they'll be
it's going to be a question of
all the other questions- also
because feather river. As some
of you may know is one of the
oldest programs- that is- put
on by open parks recreation
development. And so if we do
not expedite this request-
feather river may not start on
time. And that would impact and
then that's a race and equity
issue- also right now- we're-
to the other side.
Sorry I want to get us back on scheduling okay yeah okay I think that's over five that's
the basis with council over five thank you all right thank you thank you so much so now

Thank you. I will call the public speakers when you approach the podium. Please state your name
Councilmember Houston. Did you have something?
Good morning. Good morning, and I wanted to speak to pull that off of consent
not consent to consent.
I didn't know, I said no on the 3.36
because it was three out of 33 vendors.
It was only three from Oakland.
And it does warrant discussion.
Let's move it back to non-consent.
We'll move that back to non-consent
so we can talk with the departments about that.
And that's what I wanted.
Absolutely.
But I wanted to keep it moving
because I can say what I need to say in two minutes.
but if you want to do that, I agree with you
because it does need discussion, it does.
So thank you so much.
I wanted to speak to our 3.13 on the ballot measure
I'm trying to amend, right?
It says, this ballot measure to amend the city charter
to improve civilian oversight of OPD,
improve
not remove
so individuals are saying some false narrative that i'm trying to

No, no, no, you have all the time you want within reason,
but just make sure your comments are related
back to scheduling.
And it is, it's to schedule this amendment
to the charter.
And what I like to do is I like to just go over it

You know what I do, president?
President.

which is the legal dumping expenditure plan.
We are from the Oakland Public Works Department.

Council Member Wong, Council Member Houston,
and we are now adding Council Member Brown.
Okay.
All right, thank you for that.
I am now going to read the public speaker's names.
For those who are participating via Zoom,
please raise your hand so we can easily acknowledge you
and we will call you after we call those

I have Millie Cleveland with multiple cards.
Jose Dorado with one card.
I have Pamela Drake with one card.
And Twon with one card.
And I did have a card with no name on it,
so I'm not exactly sure if this is,
I have Twan already, so this is, yes.
All names have been called.
If I called your name and you're here in person,
please approach the podium and state your name
for the record and you'll be giving your speaking time.
We will take those names I've called.
Not all at once, come on.
Thank you.
Hi, my name is Nellie Cleveland.
I live in District 4.
you know.
Right after the city auditor instructed the public safety
committee that the open Oakland.
Police commission needs more independence.
And funding not charter changes.
Councilmember Houston comes up with a proposal to change the
charter.
That weakens.
Civilian oakland.
That weakens civilian oversight.
It does not improve civilian oversight.
It weakens it by eliminating the community role in the selection process.
It's trying to the reason why the police commission, the charter set up the selection panel, was
to assure the independence from influence,
from political, from politics like the city council
or the city administration.
That's why you have a selection panel.
The council has the opportunity to appoint members
to the selection panel who would do diligence,
interview, check references, and review the applicants
To ensure that they are qualified.
To represent, uh, the issue of constitutional policing on the police
commission, so what council member Houston is trying to do is to
eliminate the role of the community in the identification of qualified
commissioners, eliminate the role of the community in vetting potential
I would also like to ask the
police chiefs from which the
mayor then makes a final
decision.
This is an attack against the
community.
It is disrespectful to the
community and it is totally
opposite to what the city
auditor recommend.
Thank you, Ms. Milley.
Ms. Drake, you want to come
first?
Okay.
No, you come first, Ms. Drake.
gemstone club, block by block organizing network, CPA, and the new progressive working group.
So I'm here to say I got to give it to CM Houston.
He resurrected George Orwell from the grave.
Because everything about this is Orwellian.
It does not increase independence.
I think the city attorney looks confused when I'm saying that.
does not increase independence quite obviously, it was a really well thought out, innovative
idea that only Oakland could come up with something as innovative as community oriented,
as having a selection panel that takes it one step removed from politics and allows
people to vet and observe and the public can be part of the vetting and then get people
on to the... Thank You Miss Drake you have anything else to say? No I think you
should stop this in its tracks it's not worthy of a charter change it's not
worthy of even talking about it. Thank You Miss Drake. Kevin Daly I fear that yeah
I was the one who forgot to write my name on the card I've been spoiled by
by the online system that already knows my name.
That couple items, 3.2, the Records Act Response Time,
I definitely appreciate that the council
is moving ahead with this, but it's a two-part problem.
It's great to have a quick response time.
Even better would be to accurately get records released.
find that certain departments especially the city administrator come back saying
that there are no responsive records and then back and forth email specify
exactly what records I know exist and eventually the record does get released
So, good news, I guess, with 3.2 we'll have a 10-day turnaround before they falsely tell
me that there are no responsive records, and then I can move onward to the next request.
And I'd like to take a careful look at how things are, how requests are being handled.
I'm also looking forward sort of to three point one three the police commission a detailed
Discussion I'm pretty skeptical on this
This item not looking not really looking forward to the discussion
But but I'm glad there will be a full discussion before it
Before consideration of passing or not. Thanks. Thank you. Mr. Dally
Thank you
city. Anybody else to why.
I'm here to support item three
point one three. To squeak we
just need more accountability
more results. Oakland has been
under federal oversight for
over two decades. And that
should be concerning for
everybody is costing us
millions and millions of
that we need, we still cannot chase
when a person goes into a jewelry store,
rob that jewelry store and goes out the front door
with diamond gold or whatever they want
because it's a property crime.
So if they break into your car
and they're stealing your backpack and your wallet,
you still cannot chase.
I don't know if you guys have been
to the police commission selection process,
but that process is absolutely broken
and needs to be improved.
It is slow, it is fragmented, it is complicated.
We need to improve our public safety.
So I encourage you to support item three point.
Thank you, Swann.
I have Jose Dorado.
I see my good friend, Councilmember Welch walked in.
Are you walking in so that the City of Emeryville
will give us more money for the libraries?
Hey, hey, all of you guys are out of order.
for all of them okay I'm gonna
give it a shot three minutes
okay all right I'm gonna start
with three point five one okay
I know personally that Mr.
Shane and Mr. Burris one out of
that okay but until you guys
pick a police chief okay and do
like one year comply to all
that stuff getting off that is
not going to happen okay.
Any other questions.
off that is not going to happen okay you know the judge ain't gonna go with that
you know what I know it all right so get a police chief and get that going
okay the notion to negotiate settlement okay I know about that pretty good so
let's just start there okay three point one I'm not gonna mess with three point
two three point three three point four okay three point five anything for a
legal dump and do it. I've lived in this city over 50 years I'm sick and tired of
it okay. The people that come visit Oakland just say ah it's Oakland so we
can throw our trash away all that stuff's got to go. Let's get rid of those
people if they don't want to do it. Septic tanks $800,000
$800,000 for four okay that's ridiculous all right. My brother lives in Northern
California he has septic tanks on his property everybody up there has septic
okay they don't cost a hundred thousand dollars per place. All right the lawsuits
I don't know what to say about that too many Sanchez's are making money in the
lawsuit so that's all I can see anything with the HCS I can't touch that the fire
department and anything the fire department wants they should get okay
you're you have an understaffed group of people working hard hours the case the
the same thing for the police okay the communications and all that until we can
clean up this city the privacy concerns and all of that to me is BS okay you
guys got a hat let the police do what they want that staff is about a hundred
feet fifty people underserved okay for this community all right so let them
have what they want until if we get it cleaned up so that it's safe then we can
worry about privacy concerns okay. If people are worried about that quit
screwing up so you have to worry about people looking behind your shoulder all
right. God, landscape and lighting I have trees put in my house in front of my
house before because of the city okay. I had no recourse until you came out with
the thing where you were gonna charge people money for cutting down the trees.
I have a bone to pick about that I'm gonna sue the city get my house taken
he's not going to give a shit
about me okay, all right budget
advisory committee for forty
million dollars parcel tax I'm
sick and tired of paying tax
okay all right this is BS you
guys can't thank you for your
comments your time is up thank
you sir thank you for your
comments thank you so much thank
you sir thank you so much thank
Thank you so much.
Thank you, sir.
I'm very kind.
I wish the microphones would have caught that.
He said, we're doing a good job.
I will now go to the Zoom speakers.
I have Blair Beekman and Miguel LaRosa.
I will allow Blair to speak first.
I do see Kathy Leonard's hand raised,
but I do not have her card for Kathy Leonard.
Blair Beekman, you haven't unmuted.
Please begin.
Hi.
Thank you, Blair Beekman.
I'm in San Diego at this time so I'm calling in I've been you know watching
you got council meetings as of late and boy San Diego is really going to like
serious budget deficits the same as yourselves in Oakland you guys have the
one two in worst deficits of the state for local cities and there it goes
taking such a sad approach compared to you guys you guys are practicing you
know social services and care for community and and we're practicing
austerity in San Diego and it really really hurts they want to budget cut
everything and services are being cut a lot I hope you guys can really talk to
San Diego and there can be good exchanges about the importance of social
services programs and we don't have to cut everything in order to practice good
budgeting. Thank you for the patience with that I wouldn't offer items 3.5, 2.5
and three point one five on items around the anti-litter things working on
litter issues you know with your recent items you just passed on a new RV
housing unhoused issues and unhoused issues overall I was kind of
disappointed in that and how you voted on that I was hoping like with the flock
issues you came up with really creative ideas on compromise to to baryate from ideas and come up
with kind of your own thinking and I think it was kind of brilliant you know that served all parts
of the community you really tried to serve everybody and you didn't quite do that for
the litter for the RB issues. I think a lot of the RB issues and unhoused issues have to do with litter
and so you have a ton of items today on litter issues and so you really want to be working on
them and you're taking that extra effort to work on litter now and I just wish you know we could
have been doing more that we already have the police practices that they can be on call when
you know city government asks you know people to to leave and stuff I don't I don't quite yet
understand fully what the reform is about and I hope to learn that I think we need as much police
we think we do and I was just really hoping for a variation and that you know
our main concerns is litter. We really have a bad litter problem and how to get
everyone involved in that. I've talked about check accountability, how that can
be of health, inviting the community process and I'm interested how
Councilperson Gallo's ideas on getting the state more involved. You have a
funding started in January that's going to be running out soon. What are you
working on with community to work through the summer
on litter issues overall.
You should be developing really good practices by now.
Good luck in those efforts and thanks for your time
with myself going all around here, thank you.
Thank you for your comments, I do apologize.

So let's go back.
Noting that we are removing Jenkins from three point three and it will be sponsored by five
long Houston.
And Ramachandra.
Thank you and if I can just with that change recall the role for as amended councilmember
Councilmember Brown.
Councilmember Brown.
Aye.
Councilmember Fyfe.
Aye.
Ramachandran.
Aye.
And Chair Jenkins.
Aye.
Item number three is approved as amended with four ayes.
4. Review Of Draft Agendas, Pending Lists, Council And Committee Meetings
We will now go to item four.
One moment.
Item four is the review of the draft agendas pending lists and the City Council agendas
and committees.
We have the canceled May 28th and rules for the 30th,
I believe, what is this?
Yes, rules for the 30th, your pending list
and your May 5th council agenda, draft agenda,
as well as your rules for May 7th.
And so we do have two speakers for this item.
Anything from the administration?
Noti Christian, Finance Department Agenda Coordinator.
We are requesting two changes.
So first, the Finance and Management Committee pending list.
For items on May 12th, FMC, item number one,
the FLSA Overtime Report.
We are requesting this be moved to June 23, FMC.
Rationale due to its complex nature.
We're still working on it.
The second request is on the May 5th city council draft agenda.
Item number 5.2, the parking reorg.
We are requesting this be moved until June 16th city council rationale.
Now, we would like to hold off until after
the mayor has released her proposed budget.
Anything else from administration?
Seeing none, seeing nothing from my colleagues,
let's go to Council Member Pfeiff.
I would like to remove a couple things
from the pending list for the Life Enrichment Committee.
Pending no date specific items,
including the repeal of the 2020
encampment management policy is seeing that that was passed we can remove that
from pending no date specific in addition to that is item number two
pending no date specific and we can also remove number four the contract for
customized goods and apparel as that will come through the administration we
we also, yeah, we'll keep it there for now.
So the two are removing the account,
repealing the account management and whatever,
and what item is that, Council Member Fyfe?
Two and four.
So items two and four from LEC,
we are removing them from the pending list.
Thank you.
Let's go to our public speakers.
If I call your name, please approach the podium
in any order, if you're participating in Zoom,
please raise your hand and state your name for the record.
Kevin Dalley and Miguel Larosa, in any order.
Dalley, I see an error on the May 5th Council Agenda 6.8.
I think it may just be a title,
an error in the title where there's some salary positions.
The parking administrator is still on the list,
on the title, even though it has been pulled out.
So if that is just a title, then that's great.
But if it's more than that, then I encourage us
to move the parking administrator out of there.
I also, I appreciate, May, that the parking reorg
has been moved to June.
We still don't have the parking administrator positions,
Having gone through finance committee,
it was due to come up in April, I believe it was,
and it was pulled off.
I think it would make sense to put
the parking administration new positions
to be slightly before parking reorg
comes to the full council.
So that might be early June.
Even better, of course, is to drop it completely,
but that's probably not gonna happen at today's meeting.
Thanks for your consideration.
Thank you for your comments, and if I can,
before the next speech or approach,
just to address the comments
that were stated by the speaker.
We do not change the titles
once the recommendations from committee have been made.
They'll be noted in the minutes history,
which you would see on the agenda for that date.
And then once the amendments from the committee
approved by the full council then we will update the title when the
legislation comes well we'll get the updated legislation that will reflect
the amendments and the changes.
No, no problem. Thank you so much Mr. Dally. Our last speaker for this item is
Miguel. Laurel. And it looks like Miguel is taking back his request to speak for
item four. So we will have completed our speakers for item four. Bear with
with me LEC we're moving items two and four from the pending list May 5th item
FMC 5 to move to June 16th FMC item one is gonna be scheduled to June 23rd did
I miss anything the changes to the finance the life enrichment committee
yeah okay let me say it one more time LEC items two and four removed from the
pending list.
And then you set the items from finance.
I'm sorry, did I miss?
Yeah. Yes, okay.
You want me to say them again?
No, just a new motion.
I move approval of items for.
Second.
And that was a motion by Councilmember Brown,
seconded by Councilmember Ramachandran
to approve item four as amended on roll.
Councilmember Brown.
Aye.
Councilmember Fife.
Aye.
Ramachandran.
Aye.
Chair Jenkins.
Aye.
S5. Appointment For The Police Commission
is approved as amended with four I's that now takes us to item five item five
s5 is a resolution confirming the mayor mayor Barbara Lee's appointment of Doug
long to serve on the Oakland Police Commission as the mayor's alternate
appointee and I have three speakers for this item Preston please proceed thank
you thank you council president and members of the committee Preston
and Kilburg Deputy Chief Staff to Mayor Barbara Lee.
So here to speak in support of the mayor's appointment
of Mr. Doug Wong to the Oakland Police Commission
in the alternate seats.
Over the past year, the city, as you all know,
has made meaningful progress on public safety.
And while this progress is significant,
public safety remains a top priority for the mayor
and continued leadership and oversight are essential.
Mr. Doug Wong brings decades of public safety
and community service experience.
He's a retired fire engineer,
former legislative staffer and longtime leader
in emergency preparedness
and supporting community organizations.
Mr. Walling has spent his career strengthening collaboration
between government and the communities that he serves.
I do wanna thank-
One second, pause.
Oh, please.
Apologies for the record.
We do need to have an urgency stated on the record
before we move on with this item.
I don't know why this item was added.
Yeah, thanks for flagging.
Yes, so the requesting an urgency finding
with the recent resignations of folks
on the police commission,
we're asking that council grants a urgency finding
to allow us to move the appointment of Doug Wong
as an alternative police commissioner.
Thank you.
A motion and a second and a recall vote for that urgency.
So moved.
We need a motion and a vote for second.
Okay.
And for the urgency finding state and on record,
We have a motion by council member Brown,
seconded by council member Ramachandran.
On roll council member Ramachandran, Brown, excuse me, hi.
Council member five, aye.
Ramachandran.
Aye.
And chair Jenkins.
Aye.
Thank you so much, that urgency finding
was approved with four ayes.
I apologize, you may move on.
Appreciate you lifting it up, thanks clerk.
So yeah, so I'll finish with thanks council member
Ramachandran and council member Wong
for their sponsor or co-sponsorship.
I'll leave with Ms. Rwang as present today
But that's that's what we're
doing here at the grocery store
right now and prepare to make
some remarks or take some
questions if you have them.
Thank you all.
Thank you so much and thank you
for bringing this forward.
I was actually in the grocery
store this morning and people
were very excited about mr.
Wong coming to the police
commission.
And I was like wait a minute.
This is what people are stopping
me about in the grocery store.
So mr. Wong do you want to have
some comments or do you want to
if you can.
Shop right.
Mr. Wong.
Good morning.
My name is Douglas Wong.
I look forward to working with the police commission
and the city council and the public.
It's my second time around.
Unfortunately, I was, uh, I got injured earlier in the year,
but, um, I'm healthy, but I've been lying to my wife
and I'm not, so she can still take care of me.
we'll do some work.
And volunteering for the city.
Thank you so much.
And just a question before Councilmember Armin Chandra
and have all the background checks been done?
Completed and submitted to the City Minister's Office.
Thank you.
Councilmember Armin Chandra.
Thank you.
Just want to acknowledge and appreciate all of the work
that you've done for the city of Oakland
on the neighborhood level and caring about public safety,
environmental justice, racial equity.
Excellent addition to our police commission and very enthusiastic about supporting your candidacy. Thank you. Thank you
Thank you councilmember Fife
Yes, thank you
Thank You chair
I just wanted to offer another opportunity to respond to the question that I asked when you first came
You do have a lot of experience
life experience just engaging with public safety issues
but I wanted to give you another opportunity to answer the role that
constitutional policing plays in your work and to explain to us your
perspective on constitutional policing. Well, one thing is policing is a
combined effort of the neighborhood and the police officers which we entrust for
safety. So you have to look at both sides of the coin because when we call the
police we're calling them to help us. So sometimes we don't we the public do not
feel that the police officers are responding the way we think they should.
So this is where the police commission comes in working with the police
officers working with me. What I really want to do is get rid of the NSA we're
working towards of getting that out so we can use that monies to strengthen the police department in our community services
Are you complete? Yeah, so I just want to say I'm
We are entering a new era of
Policing in this country and in this city and it's important that the individuals that we are pointing to positions of leadership
understand that constitutional policing
ensures that
We are governed by law enforcement officers that respect the constitutional rights of the individuals that they come in contact with
I did not hear that in your response
But it is so critical especially in the african-american communities and neighborhoods where we've seen a history and pattern
And in Oakland specifically of violating the constitutional rights of Oakland residents in addition
and it's important that in your role,
in your leadership role, that it's not about
keeping the NSA or getting rid of the NSA,
but doing the critical work that ensures
that our police department is in compliance.
That should be the overarching objective.
Because if we get rid of it and we still are experiencing
the same challenges internally, then we'll just recreate
the patterns of history that Oakland has seen.
So I just wanted to say that to you
because your position will be critical.
I definitely agree with you.
In the sense that when I was growing up,
it was us against them, us, the citizens,
and the communities against the police,
what we can get away with.
Now, as I've gotten more involved in the community
and throughout, it's more, in my opinion,
how we work together to provide a safe community.
Now, I tell a lot of people, they complain to me,
And I said, you know, we are the city and we, and because we are the city,
we don't, the city council can only do so much.
The American only do so much,
but we as citizens have to work with our police officers and we want them to
work with us in a civil manager, civil to work with the civilly.
So we understand where they're coming from and they can understand where we are.
That's why I always tell people, get out there,
introduce yourself to police officers.
they can put a face out there.
So with Constitution, everybody has their rights,
and I really strongly believe the rights of the citizens
takes precedence over anything else.
I would encourage you to be in relationship
with organizations and individuals and even literature
that talk about constitutional policing and what that means.
Again, and I don't want to take up too much time.
You've been here before.
but that question wasn't fully answered
the first time that I asked or seconded, but thank you.
Council Member Brown.
Excellent.
Well, thank you so much.
It's good to see you back.
Hope you're feeling much better.
And as was stated, I know that we all kind of got
the opportunity to ask you some various questions.
And so just wanted to give you also the opportunity
to answer the question that I had asked around,
you know, what would you say are your biggest priorities
stepping into this role, your top priorities.
Well, there's a lot of reading,
which I'm sort of plowing through.
Biggest priority is working towards so we,
first of all, to have less complaints
about the police officers,
getting the police officers more involved in our community.
So I'm a big proponent of ceasefire, community policing,
because that gets the officers out there with us
to see how we live and what we do
and understand our ways and our attitudes.
So that's one of my goals to work.
I belong to several organizations
in Chinatown and District 4,
and also working with the Oakland Senior Centers
in different capacities of teaching the first aid and CPR.
And I understand where they're coming from.
And now that I'm a senior,
I understand, you know, it gives me better insight
of what's happening out there.
Okay, any more comments?
If not, I want to give you another opportunity.
I don't believe Councilmember Fyfe's question
was answered in the way, just straight up.
Constitutional policing, what is your definition of it?
So this country build, I worked out in West Oakland
for many years.
I worked out in the grocery store.
I worked with the black community.
We played basketball together.
And I saw the difference of how the police acted
to the different cultures in the city of Oakland.
And I will read up on constitutional policing for sure
to get a better grasp and hopefully any questions
I can ask you, Council Member Fife,
on what your interpretation is.
I'll entertain a motion.
We do have speakers for this item.
If we are done with this portion,
I will call those speakers up to the podium.
Miguel LaRosa, Kevin Dalley, and Blair Beakman,
if you're participating via Zoom, please raise your hand.
And as you approach the podium or once you're unmuted,
please state your name for the record.
Did we get a card from Miss Millie?
I would say I would like to
respond to that I was.
Or if this is okay she has much
better thoughts than.
If there was no car presented
then you can't see your time.
To the person I I have my card
I I don't have a car from this
millie for this item so she
would have to have submitted a
speaker card in order for you to
see.
Yeah time to.
Can I see my time to her.
You cannot see your time to her
And Ms. Millie stood up there with you.
Yeah.
Okay.
Uh, this comes back to some of the challenges with having to know ahead of time what topics
are relevant.
So I guess I can't...
I want to tell them what to say.
Yeah.
So I...
Tell them that the NSA remains and comes and lives in existence.
It doesn't go away.
Yeah.
Yes.
And the NSA remains in existence and doesn't go away.
And I am concerned that so many potential nominees were turned down a few weeks ago
and it's great to have one person approved but it'd be even better to have all of them
brought back and approved as a group.
So we do need to make sure that all of the tasks remain in compliance and as council
member Fife has said even if we get off of the federal oversight we still need to do
a good job with policing it doesn't matter I mean it does matter whether we're on oversight
But but even if we're off we need to do a good job better than we have been doing
In yeah, and it it is concerning to have a commissioner that gets rid of NSA. Anyway, I think this is good. Sorry for the
Thank you for your innovation we do have
Miguel and La Rosa left for speakers on this item
Okay, I I really didn't know what to say
Okay, I highly approve of him. I like people like this on that police counsel really chill know know what they're doing, okay?
The note the negotiated settlement. Okay. I used to do work-in-law, you know
The night T guy media tech
Okay, and I've run into
This particular thing okay, and like I said you guys got to get a police chief got to get all that stuff and write
Gotta have guys like this on a commission
Okay, and after you have that police chief, and they have everything in order haven't done anything to screw it up
I think you're going to get your relief from in the negotiated agreement. Okay. That's my personal belief on it to try and do it
Prior to that I don't think the judge is gonna let you out
I know the lawyers want you guys that want want to be out, but the way it is is just not happening
Okay
So absolutely thank you very much
Thank you. Thank you for your comments. We do have one last speaker. I do see I'm not sure
Blair Beekman
You are unmuted you may begin
All right. We're Beekman. Thanks for this item
You know I've been speaking a lot on this item over the past few months now. I mean I really
liked the former commissioners. I felt they were really cool and they were really doing a good
thing and I have inexperience with the community process and I kind of I got a bit confused over
the role of a police commission versus the police advisory board and these are important. I hope
hopefully this can be a time to remind us,
that I think it was the Police Advisory Board,
as it was created, you know, in the past 10 years,
that had real specific intentions
to be really community focused,
and to pick up where the police commission
wasn't doing a good enough job for.
And it seems like you're really trying
to separate those two groups right now,
and have very distinct lines.
The police commission serves every, you know,
serious government practices,
whereas the PAP serves more of a community effort
and community question that can be more acceptable.
And I don't know how this is just gonna go.
I don't know if that's separation we're going to right now.
I mean, it's understandable,
but I don't know how much of it is worth it
to work towards when you're
specifically firing good people.
So good luck what you can be doing with this.
I want important words from this current commissioner
about compromise and the importance of compromise
and working towards unity.
Those are really important concepts
but as council person Fife stated,
we're entering a new era of policing
and we have to really ask what is that compromise about?
Are we really trying to move forward in our compromise?
And that should always be the question in unity
and compromise at this time.
Is it also moving us forward
and not continuing the status quo?
Thank you.
Thank you for your comments.
That concludes our public speakers for item number five.
Thank you so much.
And I want to say I want this item to go to non-consent.
The question that council member Fipax,
I don't believe was answered satisfactorily.
And I believe that potential commissioner Wong
should meet up with the council members,
talk to them about how you see your role on the council.
but I just wanna ensure that we're doing
a thorough process in vetting.
And so with that, I'm gonna make a motion
for this to go to council on non-consent.
Council Member Ramachandra.
Oh, that was from earlier.
But while I have the mic,
I appreciate all of the questionings
and I think that Mr. Wong has a real history
of service in this city and I hope that
More council members can see, you know,
it's easy to ask and stumble on a question
when you're put on the spot,
but as a volunteer for this city,
he's put in hours and hours of blood, sweat,
and tears into our community.
And I hope that others get a chance
to recognize decades of public service
because it's really easy to say nice things on a mic
and much harder to actually put in labor for the people,
which is something that I'm excited to have a voice
of someone who's done that in our community before.
Thank you, Council Member Ramachandran.
I got a second from Brown, Council Member Houston.
And I agree with Council Member Ramachandran.
I interviewed him myself,
asked him all the questions online.
I mean, he was on the phone for at least 45 minutes,
just talking.
And it's hard to stand up here and speak to power.
It's hard, right?
And so I understand it and I agree and I respect him.
I agree with what you just said,
and he's a great candidate,
and he was a mayor's appointment.
And I respect the mayor also, so thank you.
Thank you, Council Member Houston,
Council Member Fyfe, and then we'll go to a vote.
I think all those things can be true,
but I just wanna make it clear to the public
and to the candidate.
I don't know you.
The one question that I had is the one question
that I also asked a month ago,
And there was still no definitive answer.
And the second time that you were asked
about constitutional policing after I defined what it was,
you still didn't answer that question.
If we're doing, this is hard work.
This is going to be hard work
in a very politicized environment around policing
when there are polarized perspectives.
So it's not just the answer about community,
I mean, constitutional policing,
but it's also about playing basketball with black folks
in West Oakland as a perspective on this process
and this position.
I am sure that you are a wonderful man.
We've had a really good conversation
when you hear it the first time.
And I'm concerned that this work
is becoming extremely politicized
in a way that we are voting based on bias.
And I intend to be fully transparent,
even though it's uncomfortable, even though I'm alone,
to state that what I experienced the first and second time
with you speaking to this body is deeply concerning
about not being able to answer the questions.
I appreciate the fact that the council president
is suggesting this go to non-consent,
and I would like to have maybe a few conversations
with you before this comes back to council.
But what I heard today about expediting getting out
of the NSA, but not doing the work to ensure
that the tasks are completed is very concerning.
So I would like to, I was prepared to abstain or vote no
based on what I heard today and at the previous meeting
and looking at a resume that did not explain
the details of jobs, but rather just a list.
There are a number of things that are creating concerns,
but I'm also very open to dialogue,
to hearing why you think you are the right person
at this time for this position,
and then we can go from there.
Absolutely, and I really hate myself to have to say this.
The May 5th agenda is getting quite impacted,
so we might have to have a special meeting.
Please take the roll.
There was a motion by Council President Chair Jenkins,
seconded by Council Member Brown to approve item S5 to go to the May 5th
City Council agenda on non-consent. On roll Council Member Brown. Aye. Council
Member Fyfe. Aye. Ramachandran. Aye. Chair Jenkins. Aye. And item number S5 is
approved with four ayes to be moved to the May 5th City Council agenda on
non-consent that now takes us to open forum as I call your name please
approach the podium or raise your hand in the zoom cue and state your name for
the record I have Miguel La Rosa Kevin Dali and Blair Beekman in any order
please for open forum you're exactly right mr. Pfeiff about the negotiated
agreement all all parts of it have to be completed okay the I miss on a lot of
stuff here okay, there's so much three minutes for over 30 items okay, it's
ridiculous all right, but time is time and it's the rules okay, so I'm cool
with that. I'm gonna come and give you guys notice that I've been bullied by
the Unity Council in Noel for about over 12 years okay, all right, so I'm gonna
deal with that in my own way all right, I've told those guys what I intend to do
I'm I'm going like full nuclear on those guys. Okay. You know, it's long story. I'm not going to play it here
All right, but I'm putting it out on the record. I would like to talk to him there. I'm gonna talk to the feds. Okay
Anyway, I respect all of you. Thank you for the meeting and that's all I can say. Thank you
Thank you for your comments. Kevin Dally and
Our last speaker Blair Beekman. You've been unmuted. Please begin your comments
Hi, we're big men. Yeah, I'm not sure
That's that wants to be new items put into it from into the charter
I understand you're going for some sort of separation thing from the PA CPB AP
But I don't know if that's the right approach nice words on its subject matter
Good luck that you know, it's really difficult
We try to work past the status quo, but I've really I've lost a few steps in my life
And it's hard for me to to to keep up with with the latest the best practices. I'm trying my heart it
good luck for its sensitivity and patience and
with the current Oakland Commission issue and
Good luck to all of us. I
Also wanted to mention just another. Thank you for what you've done with the flock item. I
I really feel wherever this compromise has come from
it's possibly has help from the police on it, OPD and CHP.
It was a very reasonable compromise
and there's important lessons in it.
And I hope in this time that we're in continual war again
that we can be, we're working towards
a new AOPR vendor at this time.
How is that process going?
It's time to start asking more regularly
if that's going well,
What are the next steps happening?
Any new facilitation taking place, community efforts?
Good luck with that.
Good luck with community efforts with trash issues.
You had some good community starts in January and February
about trash and neighborhoods.
I hope that's really growing and by this summer,
it should be really expanding well.
And like Councilperson Gallo has offered,
state funding can be a really good resource for that
and can save budget dollars as well.
Thank you again for how you have a love life philosophy with budget concerns and I hope
San Diego can learn important.
Thank you.
That was your final open forum speaker.
Thank you.
This meeting is adjourned.
