          COMMISSIONER SUTHERLAND MOVED, VICE CHAIR . 
          I TURN THINGS OVER TO STAFF FOR THE PRESENTATION. 
          MR, ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE GET STARTED? OKAY. 
          I, YOU KNOW WHAT I, THE WATER FOR 15. 
          HELLO EVERYBODY. 
          HOW ARE YOU TODAY? GOOD. 
          WELL, SO HERE'S THE DEAL. 
          I'M GONNA GO THROUGH A COUPLE DIFFERENT THINGS, UH, AND, UH, I JUST WANNA GIVE YOU SOME CONVERSATION. 
          DISCUSSION. 
          I, I GOT MY GOOD BUDDY, LUIS OVER HERE FROM . 
          WE'RE GONNA HAVE A LITTLE BACK AND FORTH WITH YOU AND KIND OF JUST GIVE YOU SOME INSIGHT AND SOME GUIDANCE ON SOME CERTAIN THINGS. 
          I THINK LUIS ACTUALLY GOT YOUR HANDOUT. 
          WE'VE GOT SOME MATERIALS OVER THERE, UH, MORE TALKING ABOUT PREPAREDNESS AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          AND THEN ALL OF YOU WILL GIVE LIKE A DROP THE BASIC PARTY GIFT FOR YOU WITH YOUR PREPAREDNESS FOSSIL THAT HAS SOME GREAT EQUIPMENT IN THERE FOR YOU THAT PUT IN YOUR CAR OR PUT NEXT TO YOUR BED JUST SO YOU HAVE SOMETHING. 
          I WANT YOU TO MAKE MORE PREPARED TODAY THAN WHEN YOU WALK THROUGH THOSE DOORS. 
          SO, AND THAT'S WHAT WE, THAT'S WHAT WE WANTED TO ACCOMPLISH. 
          SO TO GIVE YOU A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND ABOUT MYSELF, MY NAME IS JAKE LIN, I ASSISTANT CHIEF FOR THE LONG FIRE DEPARTMENT. 
          UH, I OVERSEE THE FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU. 
          I'M ALSO THE PORT CHIEF, SO I WORK THE OPERATIONS OF THE BOARD. 
          AND IN MY BUREAU I DO ALL THE INSPECTIONS. 
          I DO COMMUNITY SERVICES AND COMMUNITY OUTREACH, UH, PUBLIC INFORMATION. 
          AND ALSO OF THE ARSON BUREAU FALLS UNDER MY PERMIT AS WELL. 
          SO A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS THAT I OVERSEE WITHIN THE FIRE PREVENTION BUREAU. 
          UH, BUT MY PASSION CERTAINLY HAS BEEN FOR MANY, MANY YEARS, PREPAREDNESS. 
          AND FOR THOSE OF YOU THAT HAVE KNOWN ME FOR YEARS, I KNOW KAREN HAS, I HAVE BEEN INVOLVED WITH SERVE PROGRAM, THE COMMUNITY EMERGENCY RESPONSING PROGRAM, AND I'VE BEEN, I WAS A PROGRAM MANAGER FOR MANY, MANY YEARS AT FIRE VOTING UP TO THE COMMAND STAFF. 
          SO, UH, THIS STUFF IS REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME. 
          IT'S ABOUT REALLY WHY IT MATTERS TO ME IS IT'S ABOUT, UH, NEIGHBORS HELPING PEOPLE. 
          AND I THINK THAT THAT RESONATES WITH ALL OF US, ESPECIALLY YOU ON THE COMMISSION. 
          UH, I THINK THAT'S REALLY, IT'S SOMETHING THAT REALLY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BY THE DEATH AND, AND OFTENTIMES AND WHAT WE'LL SEE IF, AND KINDA, I WAS TALKING AFTER, TALK A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT FIRE SAFETY TODAY. 
          I'LL GO INTO THAT A LITTLE BIT. 
          SOME OF IT IS JUST MORE, UH, IT, IT'S JUST, IT'S A LOT, IT'S A LOT OF INFORMATION, FOR LACK OF A BETTER WORD. 
          IT'S LIKE DRINKING WATER FROM A FIRE HOSE. 
          BUT I'LL TRY TO, I'LL TRY TO, I'LL TRY TO KIND OF MAKE QUANTIFIABLE AND RELEVANT TO WHAT WE ARE, WHERE WE'RE AT TODAY AND HOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THIS. 
          NOW, WHAT I'LL SAY IS THAT, AND THIS IS WHY IT'S PERSONAL AND WHY THIS IS SO RELEVANT, AT LEAST IN THIS AUDIENCE AS WE TALK ABOUT IT. 
          BUT THE CONTEXT OF THIS REALLY IS PREDICATED UPON THE IDEA THAT WE LOOK AT FIRES, WE LOOK AT THE LARGE EVENTS OF THE GREEN. 
          WE ACTUALLY HAVE RESOURCES THAT ARE DEPLOYED RIGHT NOW. 
          WE HAVE RESOURCES IN NEW MEXICO. 
          WE HAVE RESOURCES IN WASHINGTON RUN DOOR, LONG BEACH FIRE DEPARTMENT RIGHT NOW THAT ARE DEPLOYED IN HEALTH, THOSE COMMUNITIES. 
          I WAS ALSO, I WAS, UH, ON THE POLICY FIRE FOR ABOUT 21 DAYS. 
          UH, I WAS IN THE LAGUNA FIRE TOUR, IF YOU REMEMBER AS A YOUNG MAN IN 19 19 93 WHEN LAGUNA WAS BURNED IN THE GROUND. 
          I GREW UP IN THE COI AND WATCHED MY WHOLE TOWN BURN TO THE GROUND OF A LOT OF IT IMPACTED WAS VERY PERSONAL LAG. 
          ME. 
          AND THEN FOR THOSE OF ME EITHER REMEMBER, UH, AND, AND I'M SURE YOU MIGHT, BUT I WAS SEVEN YEARS OLD IN MAY OF 1980 WHEN MOUNT STELLI BLEW UP. 
          AND I LIVED RIGHT IN, UH, NEXT WASHINGTON, UH, WHEN MOUNT SAYING HELL BLEW UP. 
          BUT I WILL NEVER FORGET, UH, A AN INTERVIEW THAT USED TO BE HAD BY, BY THE MAN. 
          AND, AND I'M GOING BACK PRETTY FAR BACK HERE, BUT A GUY BY THE NAME OF HARRY TRUMAN, NOT PRESENT HARRY TRUMAN, BUT ONLY IN HARRY TRUMAN THAT LIVED IN SPIRIT LANE UNDER THE SHADOW OF DOSING COLLINS. 
          AND IF YOU REMEMBER THE STORY ABOUT HARRY TRUMAN, UH, THEY TOLD HIM THAT WE'RE, WE'RE EXPECTING A CATASTROPHIC EVENT. 
          WE DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN, BUT WE NEED YOU TO LEAVE. 
          AND WHAT DID HE DO? HE STAYED. 
          HE STAYED. 
          HE'S SAYING, HE SAID, I'VE BEEN LIVING UNDER THE SHALLOW MOUTH. 
          THIS LAKE HAS TAKEN CARE OF ME. 
          AND HE WAS VAPORIZED OFF THE FACE OF HEARING, UH, WHEN IT, WHEN IT EXPLODED. 
          AND AT SEVEN YEARS OLD, THAT FELT PRETTY LAST IMPRESSION ON, ON SOMEBODY WALKING THIS, UH, VICARIOUSLY THROUGH THE NEWS, OBVIOUSLY. 
          BUT SUDDENLY IT, IT, IT REALLY RESONATED WITH ME BECAUSE NOW, OH, LIKE I'M, I'M 53 NOW. 
          SO BACK THEN AT SEVEN, MY WHOLE CAREER, UH, AND I'VE JUST BEEN HERE WITH THE CITY FOR JUST UNDER, JUST OVER, JUST UNDER 27 YEARS. 
          UH, I'VE HAD A LOT OF THESE CONVERSATIONS WITH PEOPLE ABOUT BEING READY AND BEING PREPARED. 
          AND I THINK THAT THAT'S WHY THIS MATTER, BECAUSE YOU CAN GIVE THE INFORMATION, BUT YOU STILL HAVE TO TAKE ACTION TO BE SAFE. 
          AND SO WE CAN TALK ABOUT THIS AND HAVE A GREAT PRESENTATION AND YOU CAN GO, YEAH, I WANNA BE PREPARED, BUT IF YOU 
          [00:10:01]
GO TAKE ACTION AND YOU LEAVE RIGHT THEN, WE REALLY HAVEN'T ACCOMPLISHED WHAT OUR OBJECTIVE WAS TODAY. 
          AND THAT'S TO GET YOU READY. 
          SO REALLY, FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE, THAT'S WHY WE BROUGHT YOU SOME MATERIALS AND THAT'S WHY WE, WE'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT SOME OF OUR EFFORTS HERE IN THE CITY OF LONG BEACH ON DISASTER PREPARED. 
          BUT I'LL JUST TALK TO YOU A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THE FIRE SIDE AND, AND ALSO FROM THIS PERSPECTIVE, THIS IS ONE OF THOSE THINGS ABOUT WHEN WE TALK ABOUT IN RED, WE TALK ABOUT BEING PREPARED. 
          BUT WHY IS THAT IMPORTANT? BECAUSE ACCIDENTS OR DISASTERS OR INCIDENTS, EMERGENCY HAPPEN. 
          AND, AND HERE'S THE THING, WE KNOW THEY HAPPENED BECAUSE WHY, WHY, WHAT DO YOU THINK? WELL, HISTORY 10 REPEAT ITSELF, RIGHT? SO HERE, I MEAN HERE IN LONG BEACH, RIGHT? AND I, AND I, I NECESSARILY THINK ANYONE WAS AROUND, OUT IN 1933 IN THIS ROOM MAY BE CLOSE, BUT 1933 AS FAR AS THE LONG BEACH EARTHQUAKE, MAYBE YOU WERE A BABY JUST TO GLIMMERING YOUR PARENTS' EYES BACK THEN. 
          BUT WE KNOW THAT LONG BEACH IS THROWN TO EARTHQUAKES. 
          AND WHY? BECAUSE HISTORY TENDS TO REPEAT ITSELF. 
          WE KNOW THAT WE LIVE ON THE NEWPORT ENGLEWOOD VAULT. 
          WE KNOW THAT WE ARE CLOSE PROXIMITY TO SANTA ANDREA FAULT. 
          WE KNOW THAT WE ARE LIVING ON BORROWED TIME FOR A CATASTROPHIC EVENT ON THE SANTA ANDREA VAULT. 
          AND WE, THAT'S WHY WE HAVE THIS WHOLE CONVERSATIONS ABOUT COMMUNITY HOSPITAL BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY CHALLENGES ABOUT, IT'S IN CLOSE PROXIMITY ON THE REPORTING WOOD VAULT, RIGHT? SO WE KNOW IF WE TAKE A LOOK, HISTORICALLY, DISASTERS TEND TO REPEAT THEMSELVES. 
          AND SO WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR THOSE THINGS. 
          AND WE ALSO TAKE A LOOK AT LONG BEACH AND SAY, WHAT ARE THE OTHER HAZARDS THAT WE ARE PRO TO? AND FOR THOSE, RIGHT? SO WE KNOW WE HAVE FIRES, WE KNOW WE HAVE 'EM FLOODING, RIGHT? ESPECIALLY IF WE KNOW THAT IF YOU LIVE ON THE WEST SIDE, YOU MAY BE PRONE TO MORPH LETTING, BECAUSE YOU'VE ALSO SEEN THE SEVEN 10 INTERCHANGE DOWN THERE WITH WHEN WE HAVE , AND GUESS WHAT? EL NINO'S COMING, RIGHT? SO WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE TO EVENTS, IF YOU LIVE ON THE PENINSULA, YOU KNOW YOU ARE THROWN HISTORIC, YOU KNOW, POTENTIAL PLENTY. 
          SO WHY ARE WE SURPRISED WHEN IT HAPPENS? AGAIN, THE REALITY IS WE KNOW THESE ARE HISTORIC EVENTS AND WE KNOW THESE WILL OCCUR OVER AND OVER AGAIN. 
          AND WE KNOW THAT WE'RE HAVING SLAMMING, YOU KNOW, CHANGES FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF IT'S GETTING HOTTER. 
          AND WE ALSO KNOW WE HAVE SEA LEVEL ISSUES RISING, RIGHT? THESE, NOW THAT'S OBVIOUSLY OPEN FOR A DEBATE OF INTERPRETATION, BUT I CAN TELL YOU PERSONALLY, I HAVE BEEN DOWN ON THE PEN WHEN WE HAVE WATER, THAT WATER ISSUES GOING ON, IT JUST HAPPENED LAST NIGHT ON BAY ROAD. 
          WE HAVE HIGH BLOOD, HIGH HIGH TIDES AND WE HAVE WATER TREES ON, ON BASE AVENUE, RIGHT? SO WHEN WE, WE COULD, WE ADD THAT TO A, AN EVENT DOWN IN BAJA WHERE WE HAVE A, A TROPICAL STORM OR A H SOME TYPE OF A, UH, SOME TYPE OF A CYCLE AND A HURRICANE THING UP ON WHERE YOU ARE, RIGHT? WE TALKED ABOUT WHAT THAT IMPACT IS. 
          WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SWELLS THAT ARE GOING TO IMPACT OUR RESIDENTS. 
          SO LAST NIGHT I JUST GOT DONE PARTICIPATING IN COUNCIL. 
          UH, WE WERE THERE, WE DID OUR, OUR PITCH FOR THE BUDGET, BUT I STAYED THROUGHOUT THE DURATION OF COUNCIL AND THERE WAS A PRESENTATION, UH, FROM, UH, FROM BASICALLY FROM PUBLIC COURTS, UM, TALKING ABOUT WHERE WE WERE MOVING AS FAR AS A MAJOR PROJECT IN THE ALDO STATE. 
          AND I FOUND IT REALLY FASCINATING BECAUSE GUESS WHAT? THEY'RE TAKE, THEY'RE DOING A MASSIVE PITCH FOR A DREDGING PROJECT, THE ALAMEDO CHANNEL TO MOVE THAT, THAT MATERIAL TO MAKE IT DEEP ABOUT 20 FEET, AND THEN TAKE THAT MATERIAL OVER TO THE PENINSULA TO CREATE. 
          SO TO ME, WHY THAT'S A TWO IN ONE WIND, BECAUSE WE KNOW OUR BEACHES AND ERODING AND WE CAN'T KEEP UP WITH EM. 
          AND IF YOU SEE THOSE DOZERS WORKING IN BUILDING THAT BUR UP, YOU SEE THOSE MITIGATION EFFORTS THAT WE CALL MITIGATION, RIGHT? THE EFFORT TO TRY TO MINIMIZE THE IMPACT. 
          THAT'S WHAT WE DO TO TRY TO SAVE THOSE HOMES. 
          AND THAT'S NOT SUSTAINABLE. 
          SO HOW DO WE CONTINUE TO BUILD INFRASTRUCTURE? HOW DO WE BUILD AND DO THINGS TO CREATE PROJECTS TO SUSTAIN AND PROTECT THOSE HOMES IN THE VANESSA? BUT GUESS WHAT? THOSE PEOPLE THAT MOVED INTO PENINSULA KNEW THAT THOSE WERE GONNA BE VULNERABILITIES. 
          AND SO WE ALSO HAVE THE CHALLENGES OF, OF THAT AND HOW WE'VE MANAGED THAT FROM A CITY'S PERSPECTIVE. 
          BECAUSE WE HAVE RESPONSIBILITIES AS A CITY PROVIDING PROTECTION FOR ANYBODY IN OUR COMMUNITY, REGARDLESS OF WHERE, REGARDLESS OF YOUR RACE, ET CETERA, ETHNICITY, RIGHT? HOW MUCH MONEY YOU HAVE OR DON'T HAVE. 
          I'LL SAY THIS, DISASTERS FROM THAT PERSPECTIVE ARE THE GREAT EQUALIZERS. 
          IT DOESN'T MATTER. 
          THEY DON'T HAVE, IT DOESN'T SAY, YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'RE GONNA, WE'RE GONNA LEAVE. 
          WE'RE GONNA LEAVE LAKEWOOD ALONE. 
          WE'LL JUST HIT LONG BEACH TODAY. 
          RIGHT? THAT'S NOT HOW THAT WORKS. 
          DISASTERS HAPPEN AND IT IMPACTS EVERYBODY IN THE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA. 
          AND THAT'S WHY HAVING RESOURCES BECOME SO IMPORTANT FOR US BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT WE HAVE A CITY OF A HALF A MILLION PEOPLE. 
          AND WHEN WE LOOK AT THE NUMBERS OF HOW MANY FIREFIGHTERS WE HAVE ON DUTY EVERY DAY, YOU READY FOR THIS? WE HAVE ABOUT ONE FIREFIGHTER FOR EVERY THREE, 4,000 RESIDENTS. 
          [00:15:02]
SO WE ARE GOING TO RE REQUIRE RESOURCES COMING IN TO HELP US DURING THOSE EVENTS. 
          AND WE WILL REQUIRE ASSISTANCE FROM OUR COMMUNITY MEMBERS. 
          WE WILL REQUIRE NEIGHBORS HELPING SAFETY. 
          THAT'S A, THAT'S AN EXPECTATION. 
          WE NEED THAT. 
          SO WE BUILD AND DEVELOP PROGRAMS LIKE CERTAIN TO TRAIN THE COMMUNITIES. 
          SO YOU ARE THE HELP UNTIL HEALTH ARRIVES, BECAUSE THAT'S HOW WE BUILD RESILIENCE. 
          THAT'S HOW WE BUILD COMMUNITY. 
          THAT'S HOW WE BUILD THE ABILITY TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER. 
          BECAUSE IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT SOME OF THESE EVENTS SPECIFICALLY, WE TALK ABOUT OUR PREMIER POPULATION FOR PREMIER ADULTS. 
          I LIKE TO CALL 'EM OVER LEAGUE OR WHATEVER YOU WANT, CALL THEM. 
          WE CAN CALL 'EM BREAKDOWNS, I GUESS TALK OLDER ADULTS. 
          SO I, SO THE, I THINK IS, IF WE TAKE A LOOK AT THAT PERSPECTIVE, WE REALIZE THAT OFTENTIMES AS YOU TALK ABOUT, WE TALK ABOUT COMMISSION ON AGING, OFTENTIMES THOSE THAT ARE AGING, RIGHT? AND BECOME OLDER ADULTS, RIGHT? THEY ALSO SOMETIMES FIND THEMSELVES WITH LIMIT OF ABILITY AND THEY RESOURCE AND NO SUPPORT STRUCTURE OR MINIMAL SUPPORT STRUCTURE, RIGHT? THOSE ARE CONSISTENT, I WOULD SAY MANY, MANY TIMES. 
          AND SO WITH THAT SAID, WE TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE DISASTERS, AND I'LL USE THIS AS EITHER LIKE PARADISE OR PALISADES OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT, WHO ARE THE ONES THAT ARE MOST POTENTIALLY VULNERABLE TO BEING IMPACT OLDER ADULTS AND SENIORS, RIGHT? WHY? BECAUSE THEY DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES, THE INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          AND THAT'S SHAME ON US AS A COMMUNITY BECAUSE NO ONE NEEDS TO SAY, WE GOTTA GO GET MRS. SMITH AT THIS HOUSE BECAUSE SHE'S BEEN CONFINED. 
          BECAUSE GUESS WHAT FOLKS? WE DON'T EVEN KNOW OUR NEIGHBORS AND BACK. 
          I MEAN, MANY OF YOU, WE WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT, UH, YOU KNOW, THE, THE, THE FIFTIES GUY, RIGHT? MANY OF YOU BACK THEN, BACK DURING THAT TIMEFRAME, YOU KNEW YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, YOU KNEW EVERYBODY ON YOUR BLOCK. 
          BUT NOW WE'VE GOTTEN TO THIS WORLD WHERE THE ONLY TIME YOU SEE YOUR NEIGHBORS SAYS WHAT? TRASH DAY. 
          . 
          YEAH. 
          TRACK TAPE. 
          WHAT'S UP? YOU'RE DOING GOOD, GOOD. 
          ABOUT FOUR HOURS, . 
          YOU KNOW, THAT'S REALLY IT. 
          AND WHY? BECAUSE WE'VE GOT MULTIPLE, WE GOT PARENT ALL, BOTH PARENTS ARE WORKING, THE KIDS ARE GOING ALL DIFFERENT TYPES OF PROGRAMS. AND EVERYONE'S LIFE IS SO BUSY THAT WE HAVE BECOME ISOLATED. 
          BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS THE STRENGTH OF PEOPLE COMES FROM THE COMMUNITY, WHICH THEY DO. 
          THEY COME FROM, BECAUSE ON YOUR NEIGHBORHOODS, RIGHT? YOU HAVE YOUR BACK IN THE DAY, YOU COULD LOOK DOWN AT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND SAY, THAT GUY'S AN ELECTRICIAN. 
          THAT GIRL'S A NURSE. 
          YOU KNOW, THAT GUY'S A FIREFIGHTER, THAT PERSON, THE POLICE OFFICER. 
          AND THAT WAS THE STRENGTH OF YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          SO WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENED, THE NEIGHBORHOOD CAME TOGETHER, BUT WE DON'T HAVE THAT RIGHT NOW. 
          NOW I'VE SEEN BITS OF THAT RISING THROUGH NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATIONS AND SEEING SOME OF THIS EFFORT THAT'S REALLY OCCURRING AND YOU'RE SEEING THAT HAPPENING. 
          THE NEIGHBORHOOD LEADERSHIP, RIGHT? WHERE EVERYONE GETS TOGETHER TALKS ABOUT THESE THINGS, AND GUESS WHO'S PARTICIPATING? IT'S THOSE INDIVIDUALS THAT ARE PARTICIPATING IN PROGRAMS LIKE CERTAIN, MATTER OF FACT, NAPLES HAS BEEN THE, THE IDEAL EXAMPLE OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN A COMMUNITY COMES TOGETHER AND SAYS, WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING. 
          WHY DO NAPLES DO THAT? BECAUSE THEY'RE ISOLATED. 
          BECAUSE THEY SAID IF THE BRIDGES GO DOWN, WE'RE STUCK, RIGHT? SO THEY SAID, WE'RE NOT GONNA HAVE ACCESS TO RESOURCES, SO WE NEED TO BE PREPARED OURSELVES. 
          AND THEY CREATED A VERY ROBUST PROGRAM. 
          AND IT WASN'T BECAUSE THEY WERE GIVEN A BUNCH OF MONEY AND IT WASN'T BECAUSE THEY HAVE A BUNCH OF MONEY. 
          IT WAS BECAUSE THEY GO, WE HAVE TO DO BETTER COLLECTIVELY AS A COMMUNITY. 
          AND THEY HAVE PEOPLE WITHIN THAT COMMUNITY. 
          WE'RE ORGANIZE THE SAFETY, ALRIGHT, WE'RE GONNA BREAK THIS COMMUNITY DOWN TO BLOCK CAPTAINS. 
          WE'RE GONNA BREAK THIS COMMUNITY AND WE ARE GOING TO KNOW THE STRENGTH OF OUR COMMUNITY. 
          MATTER OF FACT, THEY CREATED THE OLD NAPLES NAVY. 
          THEY GO, WHAT IS NAPLES? EVERYBODY THAT OWNS A BOAT, OR LIKE ALL THESE PEOPLE THAT, THAT HAVE BOATS OR ACCESS THE BOATS, RIGHT? IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, THEY PUT UP THE BAT FLAG AND SAY, GUESS WHAT? GO GET YOUR BOATS. 
          AND GUESS WHAT THESE PEOPLE DO DURING THOSE HEAVY STORMS? THE NAPLES NAVYS WILL GET IN THEIR BOATS AND GO TAKE ONE TO LITTLE GENERATORS AND DEWATER OTHER BOATS FROM THE STORM, THE CITY , OR TO CREATE A MECHANISM TO GET PEOPLE OFF ISLAND AND GET THEM OVER TO DEFENSE OF SAFETY. 
          WHY? BECAUSE IT'S ORGANIC AND IT'S INTRINSIC TO THAT COMMUNITY. 
          TO ME, THAT'S THE IDEAL SCENARIO. 
          IT'S NOT FUNDED BY THE CITY OF BOMB BEACH. 
          IT'S FUNDED BECAUSE PEOPLE CARE. 
          AND SO WHEN WE TALK ABOUT THIS, AND I, AND I, AGAIN, I HAVEN'T EVEN HIT THE POWERPOINT, BUT THE POINT IS, IS THAT THIS STUFF MATTERS. 
          AND SO JUST AN EXAMPLE OF FIRING AWARENESS. 
          WE TALKED ABOUT HOW TO PUT A FIRE OUT, FOLKS, YOU WANNA KNOW WHERE OUR FIRE EXTINGUISHERS ARE? I ALWAYS WALK IN, I TAKE A LOOK AT LIKE, HERE'S MY FIRE EXTINGUISHER ON THE CORNER. 
          I ALWAYS KNOW WHERE IT'S AT. 
          USUALLY WITHIN 75 MINUTE TRIAL, WE CAN GET ANYWHERE THAT'S A MULTI CHEMICAL, MULTI-PURPOSE DRY CHEMICAL SIGNATURE. 
          I KNOW 
          [00:20:01]
WE'LL PUT OUT DIFFERENT CLASSIFICATION FOR FIRE. 
          I CAN SEE THE PICKUP GRAB ON IT. 
          SO WHAT I DO IS BY PUTTING OUT THE FIRE, I WANNA BE SOLVED TO TALK ABOUT PREVENTION. 
          WE DON'T WANNA PUT OURSELVES IN HARM'S WAY. 
          SO LITTLE THINGS THAT WE CAN DO, MAKE SURE THAT WE KNOW HOW TO, FOR INSTANCE, SHUT OFF OUR GAS HOME. 
          IF WE HAVE A GASOLINE, THERE ARE THINGS THAT WE CAN LEARN TO DO. 
          BUT THE GOAL IS, IS WE, HOW DO WE PUT OUT A FIRE? WELL, HERE'S, YOU TALK ABOUT THE FIRE TRIANGLE. 
          IF WE WERE REMOVED ONE SIDE OF THE TRIANGLE, FOR INSTANCE, THE FIRE ITSELF, ISPR OF THREE SIDES, DEEP FUEL ANO REMOVE ONE OF THOSE, THE FIRE GOES OUT. 
          SO FOR INSTANCE, IF YOU'RE TAKING A LOOK ON A WILD MAP FIRE, AND YOU SEE THE BULLDOZERS OUT THERE AND THE BULLDOZERS ARE CLEARING THE EARTH, RIGHT? THEY'RE LITERALLY GOING DOWN THE BARRIER, RIGHT? THAT THEY'RE CUTTING WHAT THEY CALL CUTTING THE LINE. 
          WHY ARE THEY MOVING? REMOVING PEOPLE, RIGHT? SO IF THE FIRE COMES AFTER THAT, THEN IF IT WOULD STOP, BECAUSE UNLESS IT JUMPS THE LINE, RIGHT? BUT BY AND LARGE, IF THEY'RE REMOVING THE PEOPLE. 
          SO YOU REMOVE ONE SIDE OF THAT TIME WHEN YOU SPRAY WATER ON THE FIRE, BOTH BY MOST BOTH STRIPS OF THE IMAGINATION, WE SPRAY WATER UP. 
          WHEN YOU REMOVE HEAT, RIGHT? REMOVE THE FIRE BLOCK. 
          SO AGAIN, IF YOU REMOVE BOTH SIDE OF THAT TRIANGLE, KEEP FUEL OR OXYGEN, THE FIRE GOES OUT. 
          IF YOU HAVE A FIRE ON YOUR STOVE AND YOU COVER IT WITH, UH, THE LID, WHAT ARE YOU REMOVING? AWESOME. 
          SO THAT'S WHY THE FIRE GOES OUT. 
          SO IN THE CONTEXT OF THIS, THIS IS REALLY GIVES US THE IDEA OF THE BASICS OF FIRE SAFETY, RIGHT? THE FIRE TRIANGLE, AND AGAIN, IT GOES IN DIFFERENT CLASSIFICATION. 
          I'M NOT GONNA GO IN TOO DEEP ON THIS, BUT CLASS A IS ORDINARY COMBUSTIBLE. 
          CLASS B IS FLYABLE LIQUID, UH, CLASS C, RIGHT? WE TALKED ABOUT, UM, AS FAR AS LIKE, UH, ENERGIZED ELECTRICAL IS WHAT WE CALL THAT FOR CLASS C. 
          AND GLASS C IS, UH, FLAT COMBUSTIBLE METALS, RIGHT? SO WE KNOW THAT A FIRE EXTINGUISHER, WE TALKS ABOUT SPECIFICALLY WHAT, WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE. 
          SO IF YOU'RE AT A, TO YOU SEE A TOASTER OVEN, IT THAT'S ON FIRE. 
          AND IF YOU PLUGGED IN, WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO? UNPLUG IT BECAUSE NOW IT'S BURNING PLASTIC VERSUS IF IT IS STILL PLUGGED IN, IT'S ELECTRIC, RIGHT? WE WOULDN'T WANNA PUT WATER ON AN ENERGIZED APPLIANCE BY THE STOVE PLUGGING ELECTRIC. 
          SO THOSE ARE THE TYPES OF THINGS WE WANNA BE MINDFUL OF AS IT RELATES TO HOW WE PUT THOSE FIRES UP. 
          SO THERE'S SOME COSTS OF, OF RESIDENTIAL FIRES. 
          OBVIOUSLY YOU SEE, UH, FOOD ON THE STOVE, WE GO ON A LOT OF THIS. 
          OBVIOUSLY SMOKING, SMOKING ON THE RIGHT HAS WAX AND WAN AS FAR AS POPULARITY AND THINGS LIKE THAT. 
          BUT STILL, NONETHELESS, WE STILL GET THOSE FIRE WHEN SOMEBODY FALLS ASLEEP WITH A CIGARETTE, UH, IN THE BED. 
          UH, OR WE'VE EVEN ALSO SEEN, UH, THE USE OF OPEN FLAMES IN, IN HOMES. 
          UH, THERE WAS, UH, UH, SOME, YOU MIGHT REMEMBER WHEN WE HAD THAT MASSIVE CATASTROPHIC OR MASSIVE POWER OUTAGE DOWNTOWN. 
          UH, WE WERE, YEAH, WE WERE DOWNTOWN. 
          WE WERE DOWN FOR ABOUT FOUR OR FIVE DAYS WITHOUT POWER. 
          UH, AND, UH, AND, AND WE HAD A CATASTROPHIC FIRE THAT NIGHT. 
          ONE OF THOSE, BECAUSE PEOPLE WERE USING CANDLES IN OF, UH, OF OTHER, OTHER LIGHTING OPTIONS. 
          AND, UH, THE PANEL SPILL OVER AND  SUPPLIER. 
          SO THESE ARE THOSE TYPES OF THINGS THAT WE NEED TO BE MINDFUL OF AS IT RELATES TO WHAT WE DO AND HOW WE DO IT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE KEEPING OURSELVES SAFE. 
          SO HERE'S SOME SAFE PRACTICE IN THE KITCHEN. 
          WE TALK ABOUT, UH, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THREE FEET SAFETY ZONE AROUND. 
          SO WHEN YOU'RE COOKING, OBVIOUSLY WE TALKED, YOU KNOW, ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT THE HANDLE OF YOUR, YOUR POT, WHATEVER, YOUR POT FOR THAT MATTER WHERE YOU MOVE IT OR YOUR SKILLET, UH, MOVING IT AWAY. 
          SO YOU, IF SOMEBODY DOESN'T COME AND HIT IT AND THEN THROW UP WHATEVER COOKING IS, UH, MAKE SURE YOU DON'T LEAVE FOOD UNATTENDED ON THE STOVE TOP, RIGHT? MAKING SURE YOU GET A LOT OF THOSE DETOXIFIERS, BUT PEOPLE ARE COOKING, UH, UH, I MEAN IT SEEMS LIKE, I'D SAY A LOT OF TIMES IT'S EITHER BEANS OR, OR CHIPS. 
          IT'S LIKE, IT SEEMS LIKE THOSE ARE PRETTY CONSISTENT THINGS WHERE THEY'RE HEAT FRY, UH, UH, TORTILLAS FOR S AND THEY JUST FORGET THAT THEY LET THE ON SNOW FAILED TO TURN THE SNOW ON. 
          WE WILL GET THE SMOKE REPORT OF SMOKE OR WHATEVER THAT IS. 
          SO AGAIN, KEEP UH, COOKING AREAS FLUTER FREE, KEEP TOWELS AND PAPER, OTHER COMBUSTIBLE PRODUCTS AWAY FROM THOSE AREAS. 
          TALK ABOUT A THREE FEET SAFETY RADIUS, HOW TO EXTINGUISH IT. 
          THE COOKING FIRE MATERIAL IS A GREAT EXAMPLE OF JUST COVERING THE LID. 
          UH, MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE THAT OPTION. 
          THE FIRE WILL GO OUT. 
          AND THEN PREVENTING BURN INJURIES. 
          WE WANNA, WELL THIS IS WHERE YOU CLOSE, UH, CATCH ON FIRE. 
          WE TALK ABOUT STOP DROP HOLE. 
          YOU MIGHT HAVE LEARNED THAT IN THIRD GRADE, YOU REMEMBER IT. 
          AND I'LL TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT HERE SHORTLY. 
          BUT AGAIN, PREVENTION REQUIREMENTS. 
          WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT EXTINGUISHERS. 
          WANNA MAKE SURE, OBVIOUSLY, YOU KNOW WHERE S ARE. 
          WE ALWAYS WANT TO TALK ABOUT WHERE WE GET OUT AND HOW WE GET OUT. 
          BEING AWARE OF THE EXITING, THAT'S GOOD ON ALL FRONTS, RIGHT? IF EVEN AT A MOVIE THEATER, YOU KNOW, WHEN THOSE PEOPLE COME DOWN, THEY DO THE FLIGHT, THE LITTLE STICKS, AND THEY LIKE, OVER HERE THEY'RE SHOWING YOU WHERE THE ARE. 
          AND HERE'S THE CHALLENGE. 
          OFTENTIMES PEOPLE ALWAYS EXIT WHERE THEY'RE GETTING IN FROM, RIGHT? SO WHAT THAT HAPPENS IS IT END UP IMPACTING THAT HERE, THAT EXIT OR THAT EXIT GOING SIGNIFICANTLY VERSUS UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE ARE A RIGHT, WE KNOW WE'VE DONE NOTHING HERE. 
          WE 
          [00:25:01]
HERE. 
          AND SO THEY ONE POINT, ALRIGHT, THIS, SOMETHING TO CONSIDER AS IT RELATES TO THAT. 
          NOW, EVACUATION ROUTES, UH, BILLY EVACUATION. 
          THIS IS ALSO GOING A LITTLE BIT INTO YOUR DISCUSSION ABOUT, UH, OUR SENIOR HIGH RISE LIVING FACILITIES WHERE THAT'S AT. 
          AND FOLKS NOT PRACTICES. 
          THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT ORGANICALLY HAPPENS. 
          THEN I THINK WHY IS THAT BECOME IMPORTANT? LET ME ASK YOU, THE LAST TIME WE'VE ACTUALLY PRACTICED EXITING AT YOUR HOME, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE WILL SAY, IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME, RIGHT? AND, AND REALLY, AND MAYBE SOME, YOU IT'S BEEN LIKE SINCE YOU WERE HIGH SCHOOL, YOU KNOW, YOU'RE SITTING IN THE HIGH SCHOOL AND LIKE, YES, RIGHT? AND THEN THEY, BUT WHAT DID THEY DO? THERE WAS A SPECIFIC PLAN THAT EVERYONE KNEW WHAT THEY WERE GONNA DO. 
          YOU GOT UP IN AN ORDERLY FASHION, SECRET DETERMINED LOCATION ON THE PLAYGROUND. 
          THE TEACHER WENT THROUGH SALLY, JOHN, JANE, UH, JOEY. 
          JOEY, I, UH, JOEY WENT TO THE BATHROOM. 
          SO WE GOTTA GO FIND, WE BRING JOEY BACK, RIGHT? REMEMBER THOSE GIRLS? BUT WHEN ALL SUDDEN NOW WE GET OUT OF SCHOOL, WE GET A COLLEGE AND WE GO TO BECOME PARENTS AND WE HAVE OUR LIVES. 
          WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME WE PRACTICED THAT DRILL WITH FAMILY? SO THESE ARE THOSE IMPORTANT STEPS THAT WE TALK ABOUT. 
          THAT REPETITION MATTERS BECAUSE YOU DEFAULT TO WHAT YOU KNOW. 
          AND IF YOU DON'T KNOW, PANIC AND PANIC CREATES EACH CONFUSION OF CHAOS. 
          AND THAT'S WHAT WE NEED TO AVOID, RIGHT? SO LEMME JUST COVER THESE REAL QUICK. 
          THIS TALKS ABOUT THE PARITIES. 
          HOW DO WE PREPARE? UH, WE HAVE A PROGRAM AND, AND, AND WE IS GONNA GET REALLY INTO THIS ABOUT PREPAREDNESS. 
          WE HAVE, WE LIKE TO GO INTO FIVE STEPS. 
          THE CITY HAS ANOTHER SEVEN STEP PROGRAM, BUT THEY'RE GONNA TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT. 
          UM, WE, BUT I, I, THE PREMISE IS THE SAME THING. 
          I'M GONNA TALK A LITTLE BIT ABOUT GETTING ALERTS TO KNOW WHAT TO DO. 
          LUIS IS GONNA GO DEEP INTO THAT AS FAR AS ALERT LONG BEACH. 
          SO I'M GONNA COVER THE, JUST KIND OF GO OVER THAT REAL QUICK BY GETTING ALERTS. 
          THERE'S MANY WAYS TO DO THIS, BUT MAKING A PLAN IS IMPORTANT PART PROCESS. 
          NOW, WHY DO I SAY MAKING A PLAN? FOLKS, LET ME ASK YOU THIS QUESTION IN THE CONTEXT OF THE THINGS THAT WE DO. 
          WE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT, FOR INSTANCE, WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU PRACTICED EXITING YOUR S BUT LET ME ASK YOU THIS QUESTION. 
          YOU'RE ON AN AIRPLANE AND, AND I WANT YOU TO COMPLETE THIS, THIS, THIS STATEMENT FOR ME. 
          YOU'RE ON AIRPLANE AND THE FLIGHT ATTENDANT COMES UP THERE AND THAT PLATE SAYS, OKAY, THERE ARE TWO, ONE, TELL ME WHAT THEY'RE STATING. 
          THE OKAY, OVER THE, OKAY, TWO. 
          OKAY. 
          NOW, SHOULD WE HAVE A LOSS OF COUNT PRESSURE? WHAT WILL HAPPEN? DROP DOWN. 
          OKAY, GREAT. 
          SO MAX DROP, WHO YOU SUPPOSED TO PUT IT ON FIRST? OKAY, GOOD. 
          IF WE HAVE A A, A, A EMERGENCY OVER WATER, YOUR SEAT STATION CAN BE USED AS A, OKAY. 
          NOW LET ME ASK YOU THIS. 
          WHERE'S YOUR SAFE MEETING PLACE AT HOME? DON KNOW. 
          SO YOU JUST GOT DONE TELLING ME WHAT TO DO WITH AN EVERYWHERE EMERGENCY, RIGHT? PRETTY MUCH WILL REPEAT IT VERBATIM. 
          BUT WHEN I TALKED TO 'EM ABOUT A SAFE PLACE OUTSIDE OF YOUR HOME FOR YOUR FAMILY TO MEET, WHY IS THIS IMPORTANT? BECAUSE WHEN THAT SMOKE ALARM GOES OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND YOU JUST HAPPEN TO HAVE YOUR GRANDKIDS, YOUR NIECES, YOUR NEPHEWS THERE, END OF THE NIGHT YOU HAVEN'T HAD A CONVERSATION ABOUT YOUR SAFE EATING PLACE, WHAT HAPPENS? DIRECTION,  GO OUT BACK DOORS GO UP THE SIDE. 
          YOU MIGHT GO OUT DIRECT AT THE IDEA IS AT MY HOUSE, IT'S THE TREE NEXT TO THE FIRE HYDRANT. 
          THE FRONT YARD IS OUR SAFETY PLACEMENT. 
          SO EVERYONE KNOWS, I DON'T CARE HOW THEY GET OUT, THEY GET OUT, BUT THEY GO TO THAT TREE, RIGHT? THEY GO TO THAT TREE AND THEY, THEY MOVE THEIR LITTLE BEHIND THAT TREE. 
          BECAUSE WHEN I GET OUT AND I GO INTO THAT TREE, I GET COUNT. 
          I GOT 50 KIDS LIFE, RIGHT? I GOT FIVE KIDS AT THE HOUSE, I COUNT AND I CAN DETERMINE THEY'RE, EVERYONE'S STEPPED IN. 
          BECAUSE IF THEY'RE AFRAID THAT HE'LL SAY YOU ARE 13 YEARS OLD AND YOU'RE AFRAID OF WHAT'S HAPPENING, BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY A FIRE CAN BE A SCARY THING. 
          IF THAT KID GOES TO THE NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE AND I DON'T SEE THAT KID, I DON'T KNOW A PARENT NEARBY THAT'S NOT GONNA GO BACK IN LOOKING FOR THEIR KIDS. 
          ALL BECAUSE WE DIDN'T HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT THE SAFETY PLACE. 
          A SIMPLE CONVERSATION AROUND THE KITCHEN TABLE TO SAY IF SOMETHING HAPPENS, THIS IS WHERE WE'RE BEING FOLKS, THIS STUFF MATTERS. 
          IT STARTS WITH A SIMPLE CONVERSATION. 
          PREPAREDNESS IS NOT THIS IDEA ABOUT YOU GOTTA GO GET THIS. 
          IF IT SPEND $500 ON THIS BIG OLD BAG AND CARRY AROUND WITH YOU, WHERE YOU TRYING TO GO WATCH SOMEWHERE. 
          PREPAREDNESS MATTERS IN THE SENSE THAT THEIR LITTLE SMALL THINGS MAKE A HUGE DIFFERENCE. 
          A SAFETY PLACE, A BIG PART OF THAT. 
          SO THE IDEA IS THAT WE KNOW THAT WE ARE PRONE TO EARTHQUAKES AND WE'RE SITTING AROUND HAVING A CONVERSATION. 
          SOMETHING HAPPENS. 
          WHAT DO WE DO? WHAT DO WE DO? IF THE EARTHQUAKE HAPPENED RIGHT NOW, WHAT WOULD YOU DO? COVER BOTH. 
          OKAY, SO HERE'S WHAT I THOUGHT. 
          AND THIS IS A, THIS IS A PERFECT THING. 
          DUCK AND COVER. 
          WHERE DID DUCK COVER COME FROM? 
          [00:30:02]
IT CAME, IT CAME FROM A NUCLEAR, REMEMBER COMMON TURTLE, RIGHT? THAT CAME FROM THE NUCLEAR EXPLOSIONS, RIGHT? BECAUSE IN THE EARTHQUAKE WORLD, THERE ARE THREE THINGS THAT YOU DO. 
          YOU DRAW, YOU COVER, AND YOU HOLD ON. 
          BUT YOU REMEMBER BECAUSE IT WAS INGRAINED IN YOUR HEAD FOR DUCKING PEPPER. 
          BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT CIVIL, BACK IN THE DAYS OF CIVIL DEFENSE, YOU SAW ALL THE COMMERCIALS. 
          THAT'S WHAT IT WAS ALL ABOUT. 
          BUT WE KNOW THAT IN EARTH WE WANNA DROP, COVER AND HOLD ON, WE WANNA GET UNDER A TABLE. 
          WE WANNA HOLD ON. 
          WE WANNA PROTECT OUR HEAD. 
          WE DON'T WANT GO RUNNING ON THAT COURT BECAUSE WE CAN BE HIT BY FALLING DEBRIS. 
          PLEASE DON'T STOP DROP ROVER. 
          REMEMBER? THAT'S WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOUR CLOTHES ON FIRE. 
          BUT IF YOU NO PRACTICE AND STUFF AND YOU DON'T HAVE THE CONVERSATION, REMEMBER THE REASON I PROVED THAT ON YOU IS BECAUSE IT'S UNEXPECTED. 
          YOU DON'T SIT HERE AND GO THREE AND TWO. 
          BUT OKAY, HERE WE GO FOLKS. 
          THAT'S HOW THAT WORKS. 
          DISASTERS AREN'T UNEXPECTED. 
          AND SO WE NEED TO BE READY TO DO THESE THINGS. 
          IT NEEDS TO BECOME SECOND NATURE. 
          THIS IS WHERE OUR CEDE PLACE IS. 
          IF THE EARTHQUAKE HAPPENS RIGHT NOW, WE DROP COVER AND HOLD ON. 
          IF OUR CLOTHES ON FIRE, WE STOP, DROP AND ROLL. 
          PLEASE DON'T DO THE OPPOSITE. 
          WE LOOK VERY AWKWARD. 
          IF YOU'RE DOING AN EARTHQUAKE, WHAT IS, WE NEED TO MAKE A PLAN. 
          WHO'S OUR OUTSTATE CONTENT? WHO'S THE PERSON THAT IF WE'RE GOING TO CALL SOMEBODY, RIGHT? WE'RE HERE TOGETHER. 
          AND THAT IS WHAT HAPPENS IF WE'RE TRYING TO CALL EACH OTHER, THE AREA IS HEAVILY IMPACTED AND WE'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO GET OUT ON A PHONE. 
          SO THE ABILITY TO HAVE A CONVERSATION IS OUT IDENTIFYING SOMEBODY OUT OF THE AREA, OUT OF STATE CONDUCT, OUT HEARING CONTACT THAT EVERYONE IN THE FAMILY CALLS OR TEXTS BECAUSE THE TESTING IS OFTENTIMES THE LAST THING THAT WILL GO DOWN THAT SAYS, I'M OKAY. 
          I'M CHECKED IN AND I'LL RIGHT THAT THIS SAFE WHATEVER SAFETY PLACEMENT, IF YOU HAVE A LOCATION, BEEN OUTSIDE OF THE IMPACTED AREA. 
          BUT EVERYONE KNOWS THAT FOR ME AND DIANA WASHINGTON STATE IS, ARE ABOUT STATE CONFERENCE ON THE AREA OF CONTENT. 
          BUT IT STARTS WITH A CONVERSATION. 
          BECAUSE IF WE DON'T HAVE THAT CONVERSATION WITH EVERYONE AND FAMILY AND EVERYONE DOESN'T HAVE THE PHONE NUMBER, WE DON'T HAVE  OR HOW MY , I POSTED OUT A . 
          OKAY? SO ANYWAYS, LONG STORY SHORT, ALRIGHT, THIS IS ACTUALLY A COMMISSION MEETING. 
          NO, I GOT IT. 
          I'M LIKE, I'M HAVING BOXES. 
          OKAY. 
          ALRIGHT. 
          SO ANYWAYS, TALK ABOUT A PACK. 
          GO BACK, I'LL, I'LL LET LUIS GO INTO THAT. 
          ALL, ALL THE THINGS THAT YOU NEED. 
          UM, BUILDING A STATE BOX. 
          WE'LL TALK ABOUT HAVING ENOUGH FOOD AND WATER IF YOU'RE STAYING AT HOME, UH, A GALLON OF WATER PER PERSON PER DAY. 
          UH, TWO PORTS FOR CONSUMPTION. 
          TWO PORTS FOR PERSONAL USE. 
          IT'S TYPICALLY HOW MUCH WATER YOU NEED. 
          UH, IF YOU HAVE WATER THAT YOU NEED TO PURIFY, IT'S EIGHT DROPS OF UNSCENTED HOUSEHOLD BLEACH PER GALLON OF WATER. 
          THE WATER'S CLOUDY. 
          IT'S 16 DROPS OF UNSCENTED HOUSEHOLD BLEACH IF YOU LET IT STAND, UH, FOR ABOUT, YOU KNOW, 30 MINUTES OR SO BEFORE YOU CAN CONSUME. 
          SO THAT'S HOW WE CAN PURIFY WATER AS WELL. 
          SO THERE ARE WAYS TO DO THAT, BUT WE WANNA MAKE SURE WE HAVE ENOUGH FOOD AND WATER TO TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES. 
          AND THE FISK UP HERE IN THE EASTERN CALIFORNIA PREPAREDNESS PRESENTATION. 
          SO FOLKS, THIS IS REALLY WHAT IT BOILS DOWN. 
          WE HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER BECAUSE THE ABILITY FOR US TO BE, TO RELY ON THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ALMOST SKY NEW SKYES CONDITIONS. 
          EVERYTHING'S OKAY. 
          YOU PICK UP THE PHONE AND DIAL NINE ONE ONE, YOU'RE GONNA GET A FIRE, YOU'LL GET A PARAMEDIC. 
          IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME, OBVIOUSLY, AS WE START LOOKING AT THESE BUDGET PERIOD STUFF, RIGHT? WE MAY HAVE DELAYS IN SOME PROBLEM. 
          BUT THE POINT IS, IS WE WILL BE VICTIM FOR SUPPORT YOU. 
          BUT WHEN IT DISASTER CRISIS, THOSE RESOURCES ARE  AND THE NEIGHBOR TO YOUR LEFT OR THE NEIGHBOR TO YOUR RIGHT THAT WILL STEP IN AND HELP MAKE SURE THAT YOU ARE PREPARED, YOU'RE READY, TAKEN CARE OF IT. 
          BUT THAT STARTS WITH A CONVERSATION. 
          IT STARTS OUR CONNECTION. 
          'CAUSE THAT'S WHAT COMMUNITY IS PREDICATED. 
          NEIGHBORS HELP. 
          AND WE HAVE TO GET BACK BECAUSE WHEN WE CAN DO THAT TOGETHER, IT MAKES US WANT PREPARED. 
          IT MAKES US READY BECAUSE TOGETHER WE SPEAK ONE MORE . 
          NO, THAT'S IT. 
          I, I'VE, I'M GOOD. 
          . 
          OKAY, MR. PIERCE, IS THERE ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE WE, I WANT TO SAY, UM, NOT, I LIVE IN , WASHINGTON. 
          SO WE SAW THE ONLY, THE ASHES CAME, THE , THE NIGHT PAINT. 
          IT WAS LIKE SN THEY, IT WAS A SUNDAY MORNING CHURCH. 
          PRETTY REMARKABLE. 
          MAYBE 1980. 
          YEAH, AL FIRE. 
          [00:35:01]
I WAS A FOUR YEAR GRADES . 
          SO THAT MY CHILDHOOD HOMEWORK ON TURNED DOWN, IT DEVASTATED. 
          SO WE NEED TO BE PREPARED FOLKS. 
          WE ARE TALKING ABOUT, UM, A PRESENTATION THAT I POSSIBLY COULD HAPPEN IN THE NEIGHBORHOODS  THAT, SO YOU, WHAT, WHAT I JUST GAVE YOU IS SOMETHING THAT I OFTEN WILL DO IN NEIGHBORHOODS, LUIS, EITHER ONE OR, UH, WE ARE TRYING TO SUSTAIN THIS. 
          IF YOU SAW THE BUDGET PRESENTATION YESTERDAY, DISASTER PREPARED AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, BOTH IN OUR BUDGET PRESENTATIONS. 
          THIS IS A NEW WORLD RIGHT NOW FOR US. 
          WE'VE SUSTAINED SIGNIFICANT, UH, REDUCTIONS IN RESOURCES. 
          AND SO OUR ABILITY TO SUSTAIN SOME OF THOSE REQUESTS ARE GOING TO BE MORE CHALLENGING FOR US TO DO. 
          HOWEVER, WITH THAT SAID, THIS STUFF REALLY MATTERS. 
          IT MATTERS PERSONALLY AND IT MATTERS PROFESSIONALLY. 
          BUT BECAUSE OF THAT, WE TRY TO GET OUT AND TRY TO SUPPORT THESE TO THE BEST OF OUR ABILITY. 
          SO I WOULD ALWAYS START WITH LISA AND MAKE THAT, MAKE THAT CONNECTION, UH, THAT, YOU KNOW, REACH OUT TO US, ASK IN FAIRNESS, SEE IF THEY CAN SUPPORT IT. 
          AND IF NOT, WE CAN POTENTIALLY TAG TEAM IT JUST LIKE WE'RE DOING HERE TODAY. 
          BUT WE'VE GOTTA GIVE THIS INFORMATION TO YOU TO BEFORE. 
          UM, AND, AND CERTAINLY JUST, I MEAN, I REALLY APPRECIATE THE COMMISSION TAKING THE TIME TO MAKE IT A REQUEST TO HAVE THIS PRESENTATION. 
          I, I WISH MORE PEOPLE COULD HEAR THIS. 
          I, I FIRMLY BELIEVE THIS. 
          I'VE BEEN PRESENTING THESE PRESENTATIONS AND PEOPLE'S BACKYARDS FOR, I MEAN, 15 YEARS, YOU KNOW, 20 YEARS. 
          UH, THIS STUFF MAKES A BIG DIFFERENCE AND I SEE THE VALUE OF IT. 
          SO I, I JUST WANT YOU TO BE PREPARED. 
          PLEASE TAKE ONE OF THOSE KITS THERE. 
          I I'LL, I'LL JUST LEAVE YOU WITH THIS. 
          A BUY THE BED KIT, RIGHT? WE TALKED ABOUT AN EARTHQUAKE. 
          UM, GIVE ONE OF THOSE DISPOSABLE OR REUSABLE BAGS. 
          I'M SURE YOU ALL HAVE THEM. 
          I CAN EVEN SEE SOME OF THEM THERE. 
          UH, PUT AN OLD PAIR OF SHOES IN THERE AND A LITTLE FLASHLIGHT. 
          PUT THAT, TIE THAT BED. 
          HIDE YOUR BED MOTION. 
          AND THE REASON FOR THAT IS THAT EARTHQUAKE HAPPENS. 
          YOU DROP COVER OF GOLD ON, RIGHT, RIGHT NEXT TO YOUR BED IS PAIR OF OLD PAIR OF SHOES AND A FLASHLIGHT BECAUSE ONE OF THE NUMBER ONE POSITIVE INJURIES IN EARTHQUAKE WAS TOUCHING BROKEN GLASS. 
          SO IF YOU HAVE A PAIR OF SHOES IN THAT FLASHLIGHT, YOU CAN GO OUT AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE. 
          TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF OR OTHERS IN YOUR HOME THAT ARE BECOMING PART OF A PROBLEM WITH THAT. 
          SO LITTLE THINGS LIKE THAT GO A LONG WAY. 
          THAT WAS 2010. 
          UM, MY QUESTION IS JUST GET GREAT HANDOUT, UH, ISN'T ON YOUR WEBSITE BECAUSE YOU COVERED A LOT OF THAT. 
          NOT  GREAT TO ABLE TO GO TO THE WEBSITE. 
          ON WEBSITE. 
          SO YOU, ALL THE MATERIALS THAT I TALKED ABOUT THE LEAST, THOSE  GUY, PLEASE TAKE THEM. 
          UH, YOU'VE GOT KIDS OVER THERE, YOU'VE GOT A  OVER THERE. 
          WHAT WE FOUND IS SOMETIMES HARD. 
          IT'S HARD FOR PEOPLE TO NOT HAVE IT PLANNED, ESPECIALLY WITH OUR, WITH OUR, WITH OUR, WITH OUR OLDER ADULT COMMUNITY. 
          AND AGAIN, BACK OUR POINT, IT MAY NOT EVEN BE ACCESSIBLE BECAUSE IF WE NEED POWER, YOUR GO RIGHT? DON'T HAVE THE RESOURCES. 
          SO ACTUALLY HAVING SOMETHING THAT IS IN HAND THAT WE CAN HOLD AND LOOK AT, WE BROUGHT THAT FOR YOU TODAY. 
          SO YOU CAN HAVE THOSE RESOURCES AVAILABLE. 
          AND THERE IS WEBSITES READY DOT GOVS A GREAT, UH, UH, UH, UH, BREAK SITE READY.GOV FOR INFORMATION. 
          AND LITOS, L-I-S-T-O-S, CALIFORNIA LE COAST CALIFORNIA, UH, DOT ORG. 
          IT IS ANOTHER FANTASTIC WEBSITE WITH THE RESOURCES. 
          I I I JUST TALK ABOUT IT. 
          THEY'VE GOT IT. 
          AND ALL . 
          SO WE HAVE ACCESSIBILITY, , WE'RE TALKING I, RUSSIAN, CHINESE, YOU KNOW, EVERYTHING THAT WE HAVE HERE, IT'S ALL ALWAYS  THAT HAVE AS WELL THAT WE CAN, WE CAN ACCESS FOR THOSE THAT, UH, ARE, THAT HAVE THEORY OR OTHER LISTENING ADDITIONAL SUPPORT. 
          SO MS. OBJECT QUESTION 
          [00:40:22]
ALWAYS HAVE, UH, THEY WERE LIKE LITTLE BRAINS THAT THEY WOULD PUT ON THE SIDE OF THEIR DOOR WAS GREEN. 
          IF THEY GOT UP MORNING, THEY WOULD BREEZE. 
          IF SOMEBODY COULD WALK DOWN THERE AND SAY, THEY'RE GOOD, THEY'RE GOOD, THEY'RE GOOD, THEY'RE OUT OF TOWN, RIGHT? THEY'RE OKAY. 
          I DON'T SEE SOMETHING KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK IS EVERYTHING. 
          OKAY? SO THERE ARE WAYS THAT ORGANICALLY THOSE TYPES OF THINGS FOR THOSE FABRIC HAPPEN. 
          I THINK OFTENTIMES WHEN EMBRACING IT DOWN BY FLOOR, BY FLOOR, IT BECOMES  MAGICAL AND LOOKING AT AN OVERALL SCOPE OF THE BUILDING ITSELF. 
          AND SPECIFICALLY, IF YOU HAVE PEOPLE ON THAT FLOOR THAT CAN CHAMPION AS THE FLOOR WARDEN OR THE FLOOR CABINET OR WHATEVER THAT IS, IT SAYS YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE TO MAKING SURE THAT YOU HAVE EVERYONE'S NAME. 
          THEY'RE DELIVERABLE MOBILITY, WHETHER WE  ORGANIC, LIKE A FOLDER THAT'S DOWN AT THE FRONT DESK AND HAVE RESOURCES TO SUPPORT IT, THAT IF SOMETHING HAPPENS WITH THAT, BRING IN RIGHT THERE AND YOU CAN TAKE A ROLE. 
          AND EVEN HAVING POINT CATION IS LET US KNOW THAT WE, BUT THOSE ARE THE TYPES OF THINGS THAT EXERCISE, OKAY, THIS LEVEL WE'RE GONNA GIVE YOU, YOU KNOW, SEPTEMBER NOT PREPARED THIS MONTH. 
          SO EVERY SEPTEMBER WE'RE GONNA DO , EVERYBODY TO MAKE SURE WE KNOW WHAT OUR CAPABILITY IS, HOW DO WE GET PEOPLE TO MAKE TO NOTIFY THEM, WE NEED TO GET OUT, RIGHT? UH, DO SOME TYPES OF THINGS THAT, THAT WE GOTTA PRACTICE, RIGHT? AND THEN MAKE SURE, OF COURSE, YOU'RE SUBSCRIBING TO LATEST REPORTINGS, UH, THROUGH ALERT LONG BEACH. 
          THAT'S A HUGE PART OF OUR ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE TO THE COMMUNITY ON WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT THERE AND MAKE SURE THAT YOU'RE INFORMED. 
          THANK YOU COMM THERE ANY OTHER QUESTION? YOUR PRESENTATION? UM, ONE OF THE THINGS THAT WE DID IN OUR LEADERSHIP PROGRAM, WE ALL HAVE POLICE AND  DISCUSSION GO BASIS. 
          THEY HAVE A DIFFERENT SENSITIVITIES TO AWARENESS. 
          ONE OF THE THINGS I, AROUND AROUND PARTICULARLY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT, WAS THAT MOST OF THE PHONE CALLS HAD $80 IN . 
          WERE FROM CC . 
          LIKE LITERALLY CALL 9 1 1 AND YOU CHASE MY NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          , CAN YOU TAKE ME TO MY DOCTOR'S OFFICE? MY GRAND, MY GRANDDAUGHTER DIDN'T SHOW UP. 
          NO ONE , NO ONE THAT THEY PROBABLY COULD HAVE PROBLEM DID THAT. 
          SO WE ALL THE R VERY EXPENSIVE AND TIMELY THINGS THAT THE COMMUNITY COULD HAVE ENSURE THAT THE, THEY EXPECT TO LOT  AND THE  ARTS COMPANY, HE HAD ABOUT 30 PEOPLE THAT WERE CER CERTIFIED. 
          SO OUR TOLD READY TO BE AT . 
          YEAH, THE ONLY OTHER THING THAT I'M QUESTIONING RIGHT NOW IS AS THE FIRE DEPARTMENT THAT, UH, WHICH IS I  FOR CAREER DEVELOPMENT FOR YOUNGER PEOPLE SEEKING, GET INVOLVED IN, IS REALLY WHEN I  I SEE FIREFIGHTERS. 
          UH, THE ANSWER TO THAT IS WE DO THE BEST THAT WE CAN AND PARTICIPATE IN THOSE EFFORTS. 
          I HAVE DONE MANY, MANY CAREERS PERSONALLY. 
          HOWEVER, I WILL TELL YOU, UH, AS A LEADER,  IS OUR TENTION FACULTY, RIGHT? SO, SO I'M TELLING YOU, THESE ARE VERY DIFFICULT TIMES, $58 MILLION ON MONUMENTAL PRODUCTION. 
          SO FIRE DEPARTMENT STATE, 11.1 MILLION PRODUCTION. 
          AND SO WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO NAVIGATE THIS, UH, THERE IS ANOTHER OPPORTUNITIES TO FOCUS, COMMENT IT. 
          ANOTHER  COMING UP, UH, BELIEVE. 
          SO THESE ARE OPPORTUNITIES FOR YOU TO VALUE DISCUSSIONS AND CONVERSATIONS BECAUSE THESE, THE, THESE REDUCTIONS WILL HAVE FAR REACHING IMPACT, NOT JUST FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT PERSPECTIVE, BUT ON THE ENTIRE COMMUNITY. 
          BECAUSE MANY, MANY, MANY, ALL, ACTUALLY I WOULD SAY NOT MANY, ALL THE CITY DEPARTMENTS ARE GOING, ARE GOING TO MEET THESE DIFFICULT TIMES.

          BUT THERE IS WHAT, THERE IS DIFFICULT DECISIONS TO HAVE BE MADE ON INTER. 
          AND SO I, AND AGAIN, I AM NOT GONNA STAND UP HERE AND ADVOCATE ON BEHALF OF ONE DEPARTMENT, BUT FOR ANOTHER DEPARTMENT KNOW FROM ONE CITY DEPARTMENT COMMAND, I WILL TELL YOU THAT

UH, AGAIN, MY NAME IS EZ. 
          I'M THE DISASTER REPAIR OFFICER FOR, UH, DISASTER EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS. 
          I HAVE, UH, ONE CURIOUS NOW, THE RISK MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE. 
          UH, MY PREVIOUS THOUGHTS HAVE BEEN THAT BECOME THE LOS ANGELES OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. 
          ALSO WORKED AT THE CITY OF , SAN FRANCISCO. 
          AND, UH,  MY CAREER. 
          SO, UH, THE, THE, THE HONOR TO BE DEPLOYED TO, TO A FEW MAJOR DISASTERS, UH, IN LAKE COUNTY. 
          A COUPLE OF MAJOR FIRES. 
          THE  LAKE FIRE WAS ALSO DEPLOYED OVER TO THE, UH, DIVERSION ISLAND, UH, FOLLOWING, UH, HURRICANE, WHICH, UH, YOU KNOW, FOR US, NUMEROUS MANAGEMENT, THE MORE WE DEPLOYED TO OTHER PLACES, LEARN FROM THOSE EXPERIENCES AND BRING BACK TO OUR COMMUNITIES AND IMPLEMENT BEST PRACTICES, THAT'S KIND OF WHAT WE WANT. 
          SO THAT'S A LITTLE BIT  US ABOUT DISASTER PREPAREDNESS EMERGENCY PATIENTS. 
          OUR MISSION IS TO, UH, BE ABLE TO CARRY OUT TWO MAJOR FUNCTIONS FOR US. 
          IT'S, UH, WE HAVE OUR NINE ONE DISPATCH CENTER, BUT WE ALWAYS WANNA MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE, UH, ABLE TO PERCEIVE ALL THOSE 9, 9 1 CALLS AND DISPATCH THEM APPROPRIATELY, AND OBVIOUSLY SUPPORT OUR FIRST RESPONDERS ON THE FIELD WITH, UH, WHATEVER THEY NEED.

          UH, WE HAVE ABOUT 77 BUDGETED POSITIONS, UH, FOR DISPATCH ALONE. 
          AND THE REST IS, IS, UH, SPLIT UP BETWEEN ADMINISTRATION AND MY SHOP DISASTER PREPARED. 
          UM, 'CAUSE WE ARE SOBER. 
          AND JUST TO KIND OF GIVE YOU AN IDEA, UH, DISASTER PREPAREDNESS. 
          RIGHT NOW, IT'S A ADDITION FUND MYSELF. 
          UH, WE DO HAVE ONE OTHER, UH, POSITION ON FLEET, UH, THAT'S CURRENTLY UN UNSPOKEN. 
          WE'RE LOOKING FOR . 
          THAT'S A MAJOR TASK. 
          I BRING THAT UP JUST TO MENTION THAT WE CAN'T DO THIS ALL ABOVE, RIGHT? WE RELY ON ALL OUR SISTER DEPARTMENTS IN THE CITY. 
          UH, WE, WE HAVE ONE BEING REFERRED TO AS THE CONTINUUM OF PUBLIC SAFETY. 
          US ALONGSIDE THE FIRE, UH, TO, UH, MAKE SURE THAT AT LEAST IN THOSE INITIAL, UH, MOMENTS, UH, WE ARE, THEY ABLE TO RESPOND TO WHATEVER THINGS IS, WHETHER IT'S RESPONSING OR A VERY LARGE . 
          WE ALL WORK TOGETHER, UH, AT THE VERY BEGINNING, STARTING WITH OUR DISCUSSION AND GETTING THAT INFORMATION OUT TO OUR FIRST RESPONDERS. 
          HOWEVER, WE NEED A LOT OF HELP. 
          AND WE CALL UPON OUR LOCAL AGENCIES, WHETHER IT'S OUR DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH, UM, AND, YOU KNOW, NON CITY DEPARTMENTS OR AGENCIES LIKE THE RED CROSS, LIKE THE SALVATION ARMY, LIKE OUR COMMUNITY COLLEGES AND COLLEGE COLLEGES AND  EDUCATION SCHOOLS. 
          WE ALL WORK TOGETHER JUST TO ENSURE THAT WE ARE COORDINATING  TOGETHER. 
          SO, UM, WE ALL EAT EACH OTHER. 
          WE ALL KNOW EACH OTHER THINGS, AND WE KNOW WHAT EACH OTHER'S SUPPOSED TO DO, SO WE'RE NOT FIGURING THAT OUT WHEN AN INCIDENT HAPPENS, RIGHT? UM, AND WE, WE ALSO WORK WITH OUR REGIONAL IN STATE AND FEDERAL PARTNERS ON, ON MANY DIFFERENT PROJECTS, WHETHER IT'S DURING AN INCIDENT OR IF WE'RE DOING SOME KIND OF PROJECTS. 
          WE, WE DO WORK WITH THOSE STATE, UH, FEDERAL PARTNER RECEIVE GRANTS AND SPEND THOSE, UH, SPEND THOSE FUNDS, WORKFLOW PROJECTS, SOME OF IT . 
          SO, UH, ON PAGE 9 1 1, THAT'S PROBABLY WHAT YOU KNOW, IS THAT IMPORTANT. 
          , UM, HOPEFULLY YOU HAVEN TO GO ON 9 1 1, BUT, UM, KNOW YOUR, MOST OF US HAVE AT SOME POINT, RIGHT? UM, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S A, A VERY DIFFICULT JOB. 
          I GOTTA, YOU KNOW, TAKE OFF MY HAT FOR, UH, ALL OUR DISPATCHERS AND DO A, A FANTASTIC JOB. 
          UM, AND IT TAKE A LOT OF THE BALL. 
          ANY GAS, MAYBE I SHOULD HAVE ASKED. 
          I THINK, UH, YOU KNOW, YOU'D BE SURPRISED HOW MANY, UH, PHONE CALLS ARE DOWN CALLS WE GET AT 9 1 7. 
          THINK CLASSROOM WAS OVER 600,000 CALLS IN OUR 9 1 7. 
          UH, NOT, OBVIOUSLY NOT ALL OF EM WERE TRUE EMERGENCIES THAT NEEDED TO BE DISPATCHED. 
          UH, RESOURCES TO, UM, AT OTHERS IS, IS SMALLER. 
          UH, SO LIKE MARCH, I BRING THAT UP BECAUSE WE NEED TO ANSWER ALL THOSE CALLS REGARDLESS, RIGHT? SO, UM, MAYOR PEN, BUSY ALL TIME. 
          UM, AND WITH MAJOR EVENTS COMING INTO US CITY, UH, THE NEXT FEW YEARS, RIGHT? WE WE'RE ONLY GONNA GET BUSIER AND BUS GROUP, RIGHT? WE'RE GROWN CITY. 
          WE HAVE A LOT GOING ON, A LOT OF 
          [00:55:01]
'EM, BUT WE ARE DIGITAL. 
          UH, THE OTHER, UM, MAJOR KIND OF, UH, PUBLIC FACING, UH, UH, DIVISION THAT WE HAVE BESIDES SUCCESS NINE ONE IS OUR HEARTLAND SECURITY GRANTS PROGRAM. 
          THEY ALL MANAGED ALL OF OUR, UH, FEDERAL AND STATE FUNDS THAT ARE EARMARKED FOR HOMELAND SECURITY PURPOSES FOR THE CITY. 
          UH, SO WE WORK WITH A FIRE P AND ALL OUR OTHER DEPARTMENTS TO, UH, YOU KNOW, UH, HELP, UH, AND ADMINISTRATIVE GRANTS EXTEND FINDINGS ON, ON  PROJECTS. 
          SO, UH, IT'S A SMALL TEAM THERE, BUT THEY, THEY HELP PERSON UNDERSTAND SCRIPT ALL. 
          SO, UH, I LIKE SHOWING THE SLIDE BECAUSE WE'RE PROBABLY  RESIDENTS HERE, RIGHT? UM, WE KNOW THAT IT'S A FANTASTIC PLACE TO LIVE, RIGHT? THERE'S A LOT OF TO DO. 
          WE'RE IN AL CITY, UH, WE HAVE THE LONG BEACH CAMP TO FIGURE OUT, WHICH, WHICH IS AMAZING. 
          HOPEFULLY YOU ALL GET A CHANCE TO, UH, GO TO A CONCERT SHOW THERE. 
          UH, WE HAVE VARIOUS DIFFERENT NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          THEY ALL LOOK VERY DIFFERENT, RIGHT? BUT ALL GREAT IN THE WRONG WAY. 
          WE HAVE THE AMERICA AIRPORT, UH, LONG BEACH PORT, WHICH IS A NATIONAL, YOU KNOW, ASSET FOR, FOR COMMERCE, UM, PRIX. 
          WE HAVE SO MANY THINGS HAPPENING IN THE CITY, RIGHT? AND, AND I WANNA TALK ABOUT THAT. 
          UH, BUT THAT ALSO MEANS THAT A LOT OF THINGS CAN BE HAPPENING HERE, RIGHT? IT'S JUST KIND OF THE NATURE OF WHERE WE LIVE. 
          WE HAVE A LOT OF NATURAL HAZARD, UH, IN THE, UH, WE THINK ABOUT, RIGHT? BUT THERE ARE ALSO A LOT OF HUMAN INDUCED ISSUES THAT COULD HAPPEN, RIGHT? INCIDENTS THAT COULD HAPPEN, TECHNOLOGICAL INCIDENTS THAT COULD HAPPEN, RIGHT? SO, WHEN I LOOKED AT THIS, I ALSO LIKE TO THINK OF THIS AND, AND HOPEFULLY THIS IS NOT THE TAKEAWAY THAT I ADVISE, WENT JUST KIND OF IN THE LINE OF LEAST, WELL AS DISASTER PREPAREDNESS OFFICER, I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT ALL THOSE THINGS, RIGHT? YOU HAVE TO THINK ABOUT QUAKE, WHICH IS, WHICH, YOU KNOW, JAKE SAID IT, RIGHT? WHERE WE'RE DU, RIGHT? AND WE, WE HAVE MANY, MANY EARTHQUAKE LAWS CRI ACROSS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, AND SOME THAT ARE KNOWN AND SOME THAT ARE NOT KNOWN YET, RIGHT? SO SOMETHING HAPPENS. 
          UH, WE SUSCEPTIBLE . 
          WE HAVE, UH, WE'RE, WE'RE NOW STARTING HEAR ABOUT THE SUPER ANEMIA THAT ARE SUPPOSED TO COME, RIGHT? SO WE'RE, WE'RE NOW STARTING TO LOCAL AGENCIES AND DEPARTMENTS ABOUT HOW WE'RE GONNA POTENTIALLY, UH, TACKLE THIS ISSUE. 
          WHY DON'T WE USE THAT FOCUS ON, RIGHT? WE EXPECT A LOT OF RAIN. 
          YOU MIGHT EXPECTING, UH, SEAWATER LEVELS TO RISE DURING THAT PERIOD OF TIME. 
          WE HAVE FIRE THAT, YOU KNOW, UH, YOU THAT SITUATED IN AN AREA WHERE THERE'S A, A, A URBAN INVOLVED ON ONE POND OR LOGGING INTERFACE. 
          UH, SO WE'RE NOW TECHNICALLY IFIED AS A BY SUBURBAN URBAN OR ZONE. 
          UH, BUT , WE'RE, WE'RE IN AN URBAN SETTING. 
          AND URBAN CONGREGATIONS TEND TO HAPPEN, RIGHT? UM, AND WE HAVE A WHOLE TALK ABOUT POWER. 
          THIS WE HAVE LINES, WE HAVE PORT, WE HAVE, UH, YOU KNOW, INDUSTRIAL AREAS THAT POSSIBLE KNOW CHEMICALS, RIGHT? UH, WE'VE SEEN THIS ON . 
          IT HAPPENS A LOT, RIGHT? AND, AND, YOU KNOW, THOSE ARE THE THINGS THAT WE THINK ABOUT, HAVE PREPAREDNESS ALONG WITH ALL OUR OTHER DEPARTMENTS. 
          WE COME TOGETHER ABOUT. 
          WE TRY POSSIBLE. 
          UH, SO WHEN, WHEN SOMETHING DOES HAPPEN, HOPEFULLY IT'S NOT AS SEVERE DESIGNATED, THAT'S THE GOAL, ALL RIGHT? SO, UM, MY DIVISION, UM, BUT WE, UH, WE FOCUS ON FOR A COUPLE DIFFERENT THINGS. 
          SO, UH, WE DO, UH, PORTING ON THE CAPITAL CITY, UH, CITYWIDE LARGEST PLANNING MEMBERS. 
          UM, SO WE, WHEN THINK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, A PLANNING AREA THAT THEY NEED TO UNDERTAKE THAT DEALS WITH LARGE SCOPE INCIDENTS OR DISASTERS, FLASH OFFICERS KIND OF COORDINATING THAT HAPPEN. 
          UM, WE ALSO HAVE OUR HAND RADIO PROGRAM. 
          ANY CAM RADIO OUT THERE, UM, THAT FOR SURE WE HAD ONE . 
          UH, IT'S ALL ON THE TUR BASE. 
          UH, AND, AND WE, UH, WE HAVE A HAND RADIO ROOM IN OUR EOC, UH, AND, AND WE, UH, WE, WE BRING THEM IN AND WE TRAIN TOGETHER. 
          BUT WHY WHITE HAND RADIO ? BECAUSE THEY SAY THAT IT'S THE MOST HARD OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, UH, OUT THERE, RIGHT? SO WHEN ALL THOSE FAILS, THEY, THEY SAY THAT HAND REGULAR SCOPE THERE. 
          AND THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S THE GOAL. 
          WE HAVE REDUNDANCIES ON TOP OF REDUNDANCY. 
          MAKE SURE THAT WE'RE ABLE COMPLETE ALLOCATED ACOUSTIC COMMUNICATIONS AFTER A MAJOR DISASTER. 
          WE MANAGE TO SEE EOC EMERGENCY OPERATIONS AND 
          [01:00:05]
SURE, UH, WELL,  RADIO, AMATEUR RADIO, UH, INSTEAD A, YOU KNOW, I'M NOT, I'M NOT A A A RADIO UH, PERSON, ALTHOUGH I WOULDN'T HAVE A HAND RADIO LICENSE. 
          UH, I SHOULD USE IT MORE. 
          UM, BUT IT'S AMATEUR RADIO, RIGHT? AND, AND, UM,  A DISASTER WHERE ESSENTIALLY A, A RESIDENTIAL DECLARATION OF, OF MAJOR DISASTER. 
          THERE COULD BE INSTANCES WHERE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT RESTRICTS TO AMATEUR RADIO TO SPECIFIC GROUPS THAT ARE ALIGNED WITH, UM, LOCAL GOVERNMENT, AND THAT'S . 
          SO, SO IF THAT EVER WERE TO HAPPEN, BE AT LEAST NOT A MAJOR ED OUT, AND WE'RE ABLE TO USE THOSE F UH, THE FOLLOWING IN DISASTER, IF THAT MAKES SENSE. 
          UM, SO WE MANAGE C THE EOCS ARE, ARE OUR BUILDING, UH, AT, UH,  AVENUE. 
          UM, AND WE, UH, WE STAFF THAT, UH, WE ACTIVATE, WE CALL IT, WE ACTIVATE THE EOC FOLLOWING, UH, ANY INCIDENT OR, OR DISASTER WHERE, UM, MULTIPLE DEPARTMENTS NEED TO BE INVOLVED, UH, TO BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH WHATEVER THE ISSUES THAT ARE MAKING, RIGHT? SO IT'S A ROOM WHERE WE GATHER, UH, CITY DEPARTMENTS, EXTERNAL AGENCIES TO COME TOGETHER, UM, WORK THROUGH PROBLEMS, FIND THINGS TO ADDRESS WHATEVER MIGHT BE GOING DOWN FROM THE, WE HAVE, UH, WHAT WE HAVE HERE, WE'RE DOING NOW, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, PARENTS. 
          WE'RE WORKING WITH A LOT OF COMMUNITY GROUPS. 
          UM, AND, AND WE PROVIDE PRESENTATIONS. 
          WE HAVE A FEW PROGRAMS OUT THERE THAT ARE SPECIFICALLY, SPECIFICALLY GEAR TOWARDS, I THINK YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS MORE PREPARED. 
          UH, WE'LL TALK ABOUT A LITTLE BIT ABOUT THAT. 
          IT'S CALLED  NEIGHBORHOOD LINES. 
          YOU DO  FOR CLOSE. 
          RIGHT NOW WE'RE FOR OLYMPICS. 
          ONE OF, UH, SO, UH, WE ARE CURRENTLY GETTING, WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE, WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE THE SEVENTH IN THE SERIES OF LEAD S GEAR TOWARDS SPORTS AND SPECIAL EVENTS. 
          UM, SO ANYTHING DEALING WITH INCIDENTS THAT TOBACCO, WHETHER IT'S EVACUATIONS, I GET, UH, NOTICES TO THE FOLKS THAT COMING TO YOUR EVENTS, UH, HOW DO YOU CONNECT TO VOLUNTEERS. 
          ALL THOSE DIFFERENT TOPICS HAVE BEEN . 
          AND THAT'S REALLY BEEN THE FOCUS SINCE ITS ONE RIGHT NOW. 
          AND, UH, OF COURSE, WE CAN COORDINATE WITH OUR DEPARTMENT, AGENCIES AND CITIES. 
          THAT'S THE NAME OF MEETING, COMMUNICATE, ELABORATE, COORDINATE. 
          UH, THAT'S, THAT'S HOW WE GET THE, UH, OUR, OUR . 
          HERE'S JUST A SAMPLING OF SOME OF THE CITYWIDE  THAT WE HAVE. 
          UH, OUR LATEST ONE HAS BEEN OUR  BANK. 
          UH, AND, AND SHELTER REPLACE PLAN. 
          UH, SO THIS IS, THIS IS NOW, WE WE'RE EVACUATING A HOUSE OR A FEW HOUSES IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          THIS IS, WE'RE EVACUATING, UH, A FEW BLOCKS, RIGHT? AND THINK ABOUT , RIGHT? THEY EVACUATED, IT SEEMED LIKE THE ENTIRE CITY, RIGHT? THIS IS THE KIND OF LEVEL OF THE EVACUATIONS THAT WE'RE ABOUT TO THIS PLANET. 
          HOW DO WE DO THAT, RIGHT? WHAT, WHAT KIND OF LOGISTICAL, UH, CONCERNS MIGHT ARISE? HOW DO WE COORDINATE WITH  LOCAL RESOURCES OR TRANSIT AGENCIES WHEN WE NEED TO MOVE A LOT OF PEOPLE FROM A PLACE TO A SAFE, SAFER AREA? UM, YEAH. 
          WE, WE HAVE A, A FEW OTHER ONES THAT ARE, ARE PRIMARY DOCUMENTS ARE EMERGENT EMERGENCY OPERATIONS PLAN, WHICH KIND OF LAYS THE GROUND WORK FOR OUR EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION IN THE CITY. 
          UH, DO WE COME TOGETHER AND, AND WORK WITH EACH OTHER FOLLOWING THE DISASTER? AND ESSENTIALLY DOCUMENT THAT AND OUR MITIGATION PLAN. 
          UM, WHAT HAZARDS ARE HERE IN THE CITY AND HOW CAN TO MITIGATE OR ADDRESS SOME OF THOSE, UH, HAZARDS. 
          SOME OF THESE ARE EXTRA TIED TO WHETHER OR NOT WE'RE ELIGIBLE FOR FEDERAL FUNDS. 
          WE, WE NEED TO UPDATE OUR HAZARD MITIGATION PLAN EVERY FIVE YEAR TO BE ELIGIBLE TO RECEIVE FEDERAL FUNDS, UH, GEAR TOWARDS DISASTER PREPAREDNESS, EMERGENCY, THOSE KIND OF THINGS. 
          SO SOME OF THESE ARE REQUIRED. 
          OBVIOUSLY WE STILL DO 'EM ANYWAY, RIGHT? BECAUSE, UH, IT'S A GOOD PRACTICE THAT, THINK ABOUT IT. 
          TIME FOR, OR SHOULD SOMETHING HAPPEN THAT'S A, A LOOK INTO  CENTER. 
          UM, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S JUST A BIG ROOM WITH LOTS OF COMPUTERS, LOTS OF SCREENS WHERE, UH, WE ARE ABLE TO MONITOR THAT'S COMING OUT THERE, RECEIVE INFORMATION, WATCH THE NEWS, UH, AND ABLE TO DISPLAY INFORMATION IN A ROOM AND EXPERIMENTS PARTNERS. 
          BUT IT'S, IT'S MOST IMPORTANT. 
          IT'S, IT'S THE PEOPLE THAT SELL. 
          WE CAN'T DO, BUT OUR, UH, UH, PARTNER AGENCIES COME TOGETHER 
          [01:05:01]
TO, UH, YOU KNOW, BRING IN THE RESOURCES, BRING IN THEIR SUBJECT MATTER EXPERTISE AND, AND DEAL WITH, UH, PROVIDE SOLUTIONS TO WHAT WE MIGHT BE FACING VISITED. 
          UH, THAT'S JUST FROM A STANDPOINT OF THE REASONS WE'VE ACTIVATED IN THE PAST. 
          UH, OBVIOUSLY A BIG ONE WAS COVID. 
          THAT WAS A LONG ACTIVATION. 
          YOU HEARD OF THAT. 
          UM, BUT THERE'S BEEN, YOU KNOW, I THINK THIS WOULD SHOWS MANY DIFFERENT REASONS WHY WE MAY ACTIVATE OUR USC, UH, RANGING FROM, OBVIOUSLY COVID, WHICH IS, UH, HEALTH DRIVEN, UH, TO FIRES. 
          AND, AND THAT, YOU KNOW, THAT FIRE EXAMPLE WASN'T SO MUCH THAT WE WERE DIRECTLY IMPACTED BY THE BEING  FIRE, BUT WE WERE STILL SUPPORTIVE OF A LOT OF AIR QUALITY CONCERN MESSAGING. 
          AND WE WERE ALSO SENDING OUT HELP TO OUR, OUR, UM, LOCAL JURISDICTION THAT WE NEEDED THAT HELP. 
          WE, WE, UH, SENT A MUTUAL AID FOR DIVERSITY MANAGEMENT TO SAY ABOUT SYDNEY, ABOUT THAT. 
          WE WERE SUPPORTING THAT EFFORT. 
          SO WE, WE DID HAVE TO BRING SOME PEOPLE TOGETHER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE WERE KNOW, UH, PROVIDING THE SUPPORT TO OUR RESOURCES AND TO THE CITIES THAT WE'RE SENDING THOSE RESOURCES TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE WE'RE DOING THE RIGHT THINGS BY THEM. 
          UH, IT'S NOTUNCOMMON TO, UH, NOW  FOR SPECIAL EVENTS, LARGE SPECIAL EVENTS. 
          I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT, THAT, UM, YOU KNOW, SUMMER 2028, WE'RE GONNA HAVE ABOUT TWO MONTHS FULL EVACUATION BEFORE EVERY DAY THAT WE, UH, HAVE EVENTS HERE IN LONG BEACH FOR THE OLYMPICS. 
          I GUARANTEE YOU WE'RE GONNA BE IN THE POC, UH, WORKING THROUGH SOME THINGS. 
          AND, AND SOME OF THOSE ARE JUST, YOU KNOW, WE, WE MONITOR, RIGHT? UH, THERE'S, YOU KNOW, TWO, TWO DIFFERENT KIND OF REASONS, RIGHT? WE'RE ING JUST SOMETHING HAPPENED OR WE  FOR THE POTENTIAL OF SOMETHING HAPPENED, RIGHT? SO, UH, IT'S ALL ABOUT JUST BEING AHEAD OF THE MEETING ON PACE, AND THAT'S THE REASON WE WOULD ACTIVATE FOR THIS SPECIAL EVENTS. 
          UH, JAKE TALKED A LITTLE BIT ABOUT, UH, ALERT LONG BEACH.

SO IN USING THE SYSTEM, WE'RE ABLE TO DRAW ON A MAP AND WE DETERMINE HOW BIG WE WANT, OR WE WANT THE NOTIFICATION TO GO OUT TO. 
          UM, SO, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE QUESTIONS THAT I WAS GONNA, LIKE, AM I ALWAYS, I, AFTER TURNING OFF AFTER A WHILE, YOU BUG ME EVERY DAY ABOUT THINGS THAT I GONNA CARE ABOUT? NO, WE'RE ALWAYS GONNA SEND THINGS THAT ARE GEO MARKETED TO A SPECIFIC AREA, AND THAT HAS THE BIO SAFETY COMPONENT. 
          UM, BUT WE DO HAVE, UH, OTHER, UH, SYSTEMS IN PLACE, UH, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, ONE SYSTEM CAN'T DO IT ALL. 
          UM, PEOPLE RECEIVE INFORMATION IN MANY DIFFERENT WAYS, AND WE ACKNOWLEDGE IT. 
          THERE IS NO ONE TOOL THAT DOES IT ALL RIGHT? SO WE HAVE MANY DIFFERENT SYSTEMS AND MANY DIFFERENT, UH, PROCESSES IN PLACE TO GET INFORMATION OUT. 
          UH, WE WORK WITH OUR, UH, VENDOR CALLED  TO PROVIDE A AMERICAN SIGN LANGUAGE, UH, MESSAGING, UH, TO FOLKS THAT NEED THAT. 
          ANYTIME WE SEND OUT AN ALERT LONG BEACH, THEY THEN SEND OUT AN, UH, A SL MESSAGE TO PEOPLE THAT HAVE SIGNED UP FOR THOSE TYPES OF ALERTS. 
          UH, WE HAVE TEXT KEYWORD NOW, UM, WE'VE BEEN USING THAT A LOT FREQUENT, AND THESE ARE OUR CORE SPECIAL EVENTS, RIGHT? WE, WE, WE HAVE A LOT OF AWESOME EVENTS HERE, AND NOT EVERYONE THAT GOES TO THOSE EVENTS, OBVIOUSLY, LIKE THE , RIGHT? THEY'RE VISITORS, THEY'RE TOURISTS. 
          UM, AND WE WANT CAPTURE THOSE TO SEND  NOTIFICATION OUT. 
          SO WE DO WHAT WE CALL TEXT.

          UM, SO WE'RE STARTING TO DO THAT, OBVIOUSLY, AGAIN, LOOKING FORWARD TOWARDS THE OLYMPICS, UM, AND HOW TO GET THESE MESSAGES OUT EVEN TO PEOPLE THAT DON'T DO THEM MONEY. 
          AND, UH, WE , UH, THAT'S, UH, EARTHQUAKE EARLY THE MORNING. 
          UH, HOPEFULLY YOU ALL HEARD OF IT. 
          UH,  VALUABLE SECONDS FOR, YOU KNOW, THAT SHIFT STARTS TO, YOU KNOW, TAKE PROTECTIVE ACTIONS, TURN OFF THE STOVE, GET OUT THE SHOWER, RIGHT? SO WHERE YOU'RE GONNA BE SAFE, RIGHT? TAKE, YOU KNOW, 10 SECONDS CAN MAKE A BIG 
          [01:10:01]
DIFFERENCE. 
          UH, GET THAT, UH, DEFENSE NOTICE. 
          UM, THIS, UH, THIS GRAPHIC THAT WE HAVE, HOPEFULLY IT'S A BIG, BIG KIND OF REPRESENTATION OF, OF OUR LATER APPROACH TO SENDING OUT MORE NOTIFICATIONS. 
          AGAIN, WE KNOW THAT I ENOUGH TO ALERT LONG BEACH AND I, EVERYONE WHO RECEIVES THAT INFORMATION, IT'S GONNA, YOU KNOW, YOU KNOW, THERE, LET'S JUST SAY THAT. 
          OR HAVE THEY BEEN RECEIVE THAT INFORMATION. 
          SO WE, WE HAVE A LAYER APPROACH, AND IT'S BASED ON  , RIGHT? LESS SEVERE TYPE OF STUFF. 
          LET'S CALL IT, LIKE, LET'S SAY IT IS A, A SHORT DURATION WAVE. 
          YOU MIGHT NOT BE SAYING LONG EACH FOR THAT, RIGHT? UM, BUT WE WILL BE UPDATING OUR WEBSITES. 
          WE'LL BE, UH, ISSUING SOME  BE AND STUFF ON, ON OUR SOCIAL MEDIA. 
          WE'LL BE WORKING WITH OUR LOCAL MEDIA PARTNERS TO GET THE INFORMATION DOWN, RIGHT? SO SOMETHING THAT'S, UH, A LOW THRESHOLD KIND OF  THAT AS WE, UH, MOVE UP WITH THE SEVERITY OF AN INCIDENT, UH, WE, WE START TO IMPLEMENT OTHER THINGS JUST SO YOU COULD MAKE SURE THAT THE MESSAGE, UH, THERE'S, YOU KNOW, UH, WE, WE WE'RE BROADCASTING THE MESSAGES , UH, TO GET THAT INFORMATION OUT THERE. 
          SO WHAT WE HAVE, WHAT WE CALL ACOUSTIC ALERTS, YOU'RE GONNA START SEEING THAT YOU MIGHT GET A, A DOOR KNOCK FROM A PUBLIC SAFETY AGENCY, POLICE OFFICER OR FIREFIGHTER, A, SOMETHING'S HAPPENED. 
          GET OUT, RIGHT? THERE'S AN EVACUATION WARNING, THERE'S AN EVACUATION ORDER FOR YOUR AREA. 
          GET OUT . 
          WE MIGHT HAVE, UH, UH, POLICE VEHICLES, UH, GOING UP AND DOWN MO WITH THEIR CASE SYSTEM TELLING ME WHAT'S GOING ON, RIGHT? UH, AND WE ALSO HAVE, UH, NOW MOBILE LOUD SPEAKERS THAT WE CAN DEPLOY AND, UH, WE COULD, UH, ENHANCE THAT MESSAGE, UH,  TO ACTUALLY, UM, WE, WE JUST RECEIVED, UH, A OF FEDERAL FUNDS AND WE HAVE FIVE FEDERAL FUNDS, AND WE RECEIVED IT. 
          UM, NOW WE HAVE TO GO TO COUNCIL TO MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, THEY'RE OKAY WITH US SPENDING THIS MONEY. 
          BUT IT IS EARMARK FOR, UH, GIANT FORCE, GIANT VOICE SPEAKERS, UH, ESSENTIALLY SIRENS, UM, THAT WE COULD, UH, PUT IN FIXED LOCATIONS FOR BOTH LOCATIONS. 
          WE'RE GONNA BE WORKING WITH A, A, A FEW OF OUR STAKEHOLDERS TO BEGIN THAT CLIMATE PROCESS. 
          WERE AT THE VERY START. 
          UM, BUT WE, WE KEPT HEARING FROM, UH, LOCAL COMMUNITY MEMBERS OF LIKE, HEY, WE REMEMBER BACK IN THE DAY, AND THE CIVIL DEFENSE ARE ERROR SCIENCE. 
          NO, GREAT. 
          IF WE TAKE OUT THOSE BACK, YEAH, WE, WE AGREED. 
          RIGHT? THERE'S MANY DIFFERENT  HERE THAT JUSTIFY US STARTING TO LOOK AT THAT AGAIN. 
          BUT, YOU KNOW, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S NEW TECHNOLOGY DOWN. 
          AND INSTEAD OF JUST THE TONE OR THAT SIREN SOUND, NOW WE'VE GOT TO FOLLOW UP WITH A MESSAGE. 
          SOMEONE TALKING TO YOU, SHARING THAT INFORMATION UP. 
          WHAT DOES THE SOUND ACTUALLY MEAN? OH, IT'S, UH, IT'S A TSUNAMI WARNING. 
          GET AWAY FROM THE BEACHES. 
          RIGHT? UH, YOU DON'T HAVE TO GUESS WHAT THAT MEANS, RIGHT? SO THAT'S THE IDEA WHERE WE'RE LOOKING FORWARD TO, UM, UH, EMBARKING ON THIS PROJECT, AND WE'RE VERY EXCITED, BUT IT'S JUST ANOTHER WAY THAT WE'RE CONTINUALLY BUILDING THIS WAY THAT WE CAN GET THE MESSAGING OUT TO OUR COMMUNITY. 
          OF COURSE, WE HAVE LONG BEACH TO TALK ABOUT THAT. 
          AND, UH, BREAK GLASS OF THE TOOL THAT WE USE. 
          UH, ONLY MOST OUR CIRCUMSTANCES IS WAS ONE EMERGENCY  IS WHAT WE CALL  AUTHORITY. 
          WE, UH, WE HAVE GOTTEN APPROVED BY EMAIL AND DHS AND ABLE TO SEND OUT THESE WIRELESS EMERGENCY ALERTS, AND THOSE ARE THE BANNER STYLE ALERTS THAT WE SEE. 
          UH, BUT IT'S KIND OF DIRECTLY FROM US. 
          UH, WE'VE, UH, SENT A FEW IN THE PAST. 
          UH, WE SENT ONE UP DURING THE TSUNAMI ADVISORY THAT BACK IN THERE WAS LAST YEAR. 
          UH, SO WE ONLY USE IT, UH, IN THOSE CRITICAL TYPE OF INCIDENTS WHERE NEED INFORMATION TO GO OUT TO ALL THE PEOPLE OUT THERE WITH A CELL PHONE. 
          UH, NO MATTER IF YOU WANT IT OR NOT, WE SEND IT TO YOU AND YOU'RE GONNA RECEIVE IT. 
          THAT'S THE POWER OF . 
          SOME OF OUR, UH, COMMUNITY OUTREACH, UH, EVENTS THAT WE PASSED IN IN THE PAST, UH, WE, WE PARTNERED WITH OUR, UH, UH, FIRE DEPARTMENT TO PUT ON THE READY LONG BEACH, UH, GREAT PREPAREDNESS EVENT, UH, POSTED IT EVERY TWO YEARS. 
          WE'LL, WE'LL SEE WHAT, WHAT THE FUTURE HOLDS, BUT, UM, IT'S VERY GREAT FOR THE COMMUNITY. 
          WE HAVE, THAT'S A HUNDRED INFORMATION ON OUR WEBSITE, UH, RANGING FROM BROCHURES, PRINT.

          EVEN HANGING OUT A, A WHISTLE OR A FLASHLIGHT AT A, A LITTLE EVENT. 
          YOU KNOW, YOU IN YOUR BACK GETS YOU ONE STEP CLOSER, GETS YOU THINKING, RIGHT? OH, MAYBE I SHOULD GO HOME AND THINK ABOUT HOW MUCH WATER IM STOCK, OR WHATEVER. 
          THAT'S SUPER GOAL, OR TRYING TO GET YOU IN THE MINDSET OF LET'S KEEP, UH, . 
          JAY, JAY MENTIONED THIS ONE. 
          I DON'T THINK YOU ALL AWARE OF IT. 
          I'M GONNA SAY, HERE YOU ARE, YOU'RE ON. 
          BUT 1933 WAS OUR LAST MAJOR EARTHQUAKE HERE IN LONG BEACH, RIGHT? THAT CAUSED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE. 
          UH, I THINK THIS IS ON FOURTH STREET, UH, BETWEEN ATLANTIC AND SOME OTHER STREET. 
          BUT, YOU KNOW, UH, IT HAPPENED, RIGHT? WE'RE WE'RE DUE, RIGHT? UM, WE HAVE A, A TON OF CALLS THAT RUN THROUGH OUR CITY, THROUGH THE REGION.

          WELL, HERE. 
          UM, SO THAT'S, THAT'S KIND OF WHAT WE ALWAYS THINK AS THE BIG ONE. 
          THAT'S, THAT'S KIND OF OUR, OUR CASH. 
          OR LIKE, HEY, THAT'S, THAT'S, THAT'S, LET'S START, JEREMY. 
          THAT'S THIS THING WILL HAPPEN IN THE FUTURE. 
          AND YEAH, WE WANT RESULT. 
          THIS IS A, A, MY HAZARD TO WEBPAGE POWER. 
          S IF YOU INSERT IT FOR POWER, MY HAZARDS, IT'S A GREAT RESOURCE. 
          UM, YOU CAN TYPE IN YOUR  AND DON'T DISPLAY WHAT NATURAL HAZARDS EXIST IN THAT NARRATIVE. 
          UH, I DID THE EXERCISE AND I PUT THE  HERE. 
          UH, SO YOU CAN KIND OF SEE, I, I'LL KIND WALK YOU THROUGH WHAT, WHAT GETS HIGHLIGHTING. 
          UM, SO, UH, THAT PINK LINE KIND OF CUT ACROSS, THAT'S A, THAT'S A NORMAL FAULT EARTH QUICK FAULT. 
          YOU KIND OF HOW CLOSE WE ARE TO THAT, RIGHT? THAT GOES, WE'RE VERY NEAR THE DEFICIT, POTENTIALLY OF THAT STRONG SHA, RIGHT? UH, THE AREA THAT'S SHEETED IN, UM, THAT BROWN COLOR, THAT'S THING WITH BADGE, MEANING IT, AND SHAKES, SHAKES GOOD AROUND SHAPING. 
          THERE COULD BE, UH, UM, UH, ISSUES WITH THE STABILITY OF THE YARD ENVIRONMENT, RIGHT? IT COULD, IT COULD, IF IT DID. 
          AND IF ANYTHING BUILT ON TOP OF IT, IT'S GONNA DIP WITH IT, RIGHT? UM, SO IT'S ALL GOOD REMINDERS OF, YOU KNOW, WHAT, WHAT HAZARDS EXIST IN YOUR AREA. 
          IF WE WERE CLOSER TO, UH, THE POSTER, SEE THAT IT, IT'S A TSUNAMI AREA. 
          UM, IF WE LIVE NEAR THE , IT WOULD SHOW THAT WE'RE IN FIVE FIRE ZONE. 
          SO YOU COULD USE THIS. 
          THIS IS PROVIDE BOX STATE, AND, UH, IT'S A GOOD RESOURCE JUST TO KIND OF GO LOOK AND SEE WHAT, WHAT'S AROUND, WHAT POTENTIALLY YOU HAVE AROUND YOU. 
          UM, WELL, PROBABLY JUST TOO MUCH, BUT IT'S, UH, ABOUT A  HAZARD, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE OF, WE'RE LOOKING AT THE, AT THE MAP, WE'RE LOOKING AT INDEPENDENT, UM, UH, LIQUID FASHION. 
          THERE ARE SEVERAL KIND OF THINGS OUT THERE THAT WE CAN DO TO BETTER PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, RIGHT? BECAUSE THAT'S ULTIMATELY, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE THINGS THAT WE THINK ABOUT. 
          IT'S LIVE PROPERTY FOR US, RIGHT? UM, EARTHQUAKE, UH, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THEM SITS THERE. 
          I WOULD SAY THAT THERE ARE SOME GREAT PROGRAMS OUT THERE. 
          UH, I KNOW WE HAVE A LOT OF OTHER STOCK PHONES HERE IN LONG BEACH, UM, THAT MAY NOT BE BOLTED INTO THE FOUNDATION. 
          THERE'S GREAT PROGRAMS OUT THERE THAT, UM, HELP YOU WITH THAT, UH, PROVIDES YOU WITH SOME, SOME GRANTS, SOME, SOME FUNDING TO BE ABLE TO CARRY OUT SOME OF THOSE  PROJECTS THAT, UH, MITIGATE POTENTIAL IMPACTS FROM EARTHQUAKE, RIGHT? SO, GRACE AND BOLD, UH, SOME OF YOU MIGHT HAVE LIVED IN, YOU KNOW, APARTMENTS, YOU KNOW, THOSE SOFT STORY BUILDINGS PROGRAMS FOR THEM AS WELL. 
          UM, SO, UM, THERE'S NO REASON WHY WE CAN'T, YOU KNOW, DO A LITTLE BIT MORE RESEARCH AND, AND, AND TAKE APART APARTMENT LIVE AND SEE WHERE WE CAN ON, UM, FIRST, WE, WE HAVE, UH, THINGS LIKE THAT EVERY YEAR. 
          AND WE'VE GOT THAT SUPER IN THE MIDDLE. 
          LOOK FORWARD TO. 
          SO GOOD OF CONCERN. 
          SO SOME HELPFUL TIPS THERE AS WELL TO, UH, HOPEFULLY PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY FLOODS. 
          UH, JUST KNOW THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE, UH, WE ALWAYS HAVE SAME BAGS AVAILABLE AT ALL THE FIRE STATIONS. 
          AND THEN BEFORE A, UH, MAJOR STORM, WE MAKE STAND AVAILABLE AND SELECT STATIONS. 
          UH, JUST BE SURE TO KIND OF LOOK OUT FOR THAT. 
          I THINK THIS YEAR, WE'LL, WE'LL TAKE A, A, UM, A, A VERY HARD LOOK AT FOR OUR PREPAREDNESS AREAS AND, AND JUST PRESEASON AND REALLY 
          [01:20:01]
COMMUNICATION ABOUT, HEY, IF YOU'RE WORRIED ABOUT BLOOD, GO GET YOUR STAND AND SAND BACK NOW. 
          NO, WAIT UNTIL A FEW DAYS BEFORE THE STORMS COMING. 
          DO IT NOW SO IT'S READY. 
          AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NO MORE SITTING YOUR SAND BAGS, UH, . 
          ALRIGHT? SO, UH, JUST LIKE JAKE, UH, COVERED, UH, PROBABLY WON'T GET A LOT OF THESE THINGS TOO MUCH, BUT, UH, WE, WE WANNA GET INTO PREPARED NOW, AND IT STILL SAME FIVE STEPS WE PUT UP THAT IN OUR DEPARTMENT AS WELL. 
          IT'S, IT'S THE SAME KIND OF A PROGRAMMING, OUR FIVE STEPS TO PREPARANCE. 
          UM, SO WE TALK ABOUT STAYING FORTH, UM, AND IT'S ALL ABOUT KNOWN WHERE WE GET ACCURATE INFORMATION, RIGHT? THERE'S A LOT OF THINGS, ESPECIALLY RIGHT AFTER SOMETHING HAPPENS. 
          THERE'S A LOT OF MISINFORMATION OUT THERE. 
          YOU HAVE TO DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH. 
          UM, WE ALWAYS COMMEND FOLLOWING OUR, UM, UH, WEBPAGE OR SOCIAL MEDIA, UM, PAYING ATTENTION TO THE MEDIA AND, AND KNOWING WHAT TO TRUST, ANY CONCERN OF INFORMATION. 
          JUST KNOW THAT FOLLOW YOU EMERGENCY, UH, IF WE NEED TO GET SOMETHING OUT TO YOU, ALERT,  IS HOW WE'RE GONNA GET THAT OUT. 
          SO AGAIN, IT'S VERY TO YOU TO SIGN UP FOR A , UH, BEST WAY TO GET MESSAGING FROM THE CITY DIRECTOR. 
          TALK ABOUT MAKING A PLAN. 
          NOT ENOUGH. 
          WE HAVE THAT DOES AN AWESOME JOB OF TALKING ABOUT THAT. 
          BUT THINKING OF PLAN IS, IS ALWAYS IMPORTANT. 
          AT, AT THE VERY LEAST, START WITH THAT EVACUATION PLAN, EVACUATION ROUTES ABOUT YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND WORK. 
          WE, AND HOW CAN WE GO THAT ALL? SO, UM, HOW GO BACK BUILDING A STATE BOX. 
          I, I KIND OF WANT TO JUST FOCUS ON THOSE TWO THINGS, TWO DIFFERENT REASONS WHY YOU WOULD HAVE THOSE, RIGHT? SO GO BACK IS MEANT TO BE , RIGHT? SO, SO ALWAYS THINK ABOUT THAT. 
          YOU KNOW, THINK ABOUT THOSE FOLKS THAT HAVE BANK FROM IN HOUSING. 
          HOW MUCH TIME DO YOU THINK THEY ACTUALLY GOT TO VACUUM? I WOULD SAY PROBABLY NOT. 
          WELL, YOU HEAR THE STORIES AND THOSE 10 MINUTES BEFORE THEY WERE LIKE, HEY, YOU REALLY NEED TO GET OUT. 
          AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY'RE LEFT WONDERING, OH, WHERE, WHERE IS ALL MY STUFF? RIGHT? THAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A GO BACK. 
          SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN CARRY WITH YOU. 
          HOPEFULLY YOU ALL HAVE IT READY, BUT GET THAT STUFF TOGETHER NOW. 
          IT'S MENTALLY MOBILE. 
          GET UP, GET IT, AND GO. 
          RIGHT? UM, SO SOME THINGS THAT WE, UH, ALWAYS RECOMMEND IS THOSE, UH, DOCUMENTS, COPIES OF YOUR, UH, IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS, WHETHER IT IT'S WITH INSURANCE INFORMATION, UM, NSURANCE INFORMATION, IDS, PASSPORTS, UH, YOU KNOW, ANY, ANYTHING THAT YOU CONSIDER , MAKE A COPY. 
          PUT EVERYTHING . 
          THAT'S ONE OF THE HARDEST THINGS TO GET RIGHT FOLLOWING A DISASTER IS LIKE, UH, EVERYBODY'S DOWN. 
          YOU'RE NOT WHATEVER. 
          UM, TAKE CASH FROM YOU. 
          THOSE TICKETS MIGHT NOT GONNA WORK. 
          THE BANKS MIGHT BE CLOSED. 
          GET SOME, GET SOME, YOU KNOW, BILLS. 
          PUT 'EM IN YOUR GO BAG AND GET YOU TO, UH, PURCHASE SOMETHING. 
          UH, FOLLOWING THAT OUT. 
          MAKE 'EM OUT. 
          KEEP 'EM OUT TO MAKE SURE YOU KNOW WHERE YOU'RE GOING, UH, WHERE YOU'RE MOVING. 
          LOCATIONS ARE, OR I, I DON'T POTENTIALLY GET AROUND CERTAIN CLOSED AREAS. 
          UM, MEDICATION LIST, RIGHT? THAT'S SUPER IMPORTANT. 
          UH, IF THAT MEDICATION LIST TOGETHER GET, UH, ADDITIONAL, UH, MEDICATIONS, BUT GO BACK. 
          UH, AND THEN THERE'S, UH, SOME OTHER CONSIDERATIONS TO, TO, TO DO AS YOU THE RIGHT. 
          UH, SO, UH, HAVING TO GO BACK, REALLY WANNA MAKE SURE THAT, YOU KNOW, WE ALL UNDERSTAND IS DIFFERENT. 
          I GO BACK, IS, IS IMPORTANT WHEN WE NEED TO PERSON A STATE BOX, RIGHT? SO THIS IS, THIS IS, UH, SOMETHING RELATIVELY, I WOULD SAY RECENT, UH, IN THE LAST DECADE OR SO. 
          A STATE BOX IS DIFFERENT FROM A GOAD, RIGHT? BECAUSE IT MIGHT BE SAFER TO ACTUALLY STAY YOUR HOME. 
          THEY MIGHT BE TELLING YOU THE SHELTER IN PLACE OR STATE, BUT IT, IT'S, IT'S, IT'S MORE, UH, HAZARDOUS. 
          IF YOU LEAVE YOUR HOME WELL, YOU'RE NOT ABLE TO GO TO THE GROCERY STORE, ABLE TO DO A LOT OF THINGS. 
          SO, UH, BUILDING THAT STATE BOX, RIGHT? IT'S NOT MEANT TO BE MOBILE, RIGHT? IT'S MEANT TO BE AT IN YOUR HOME. 
          SO THIS IS WHERE YOU ARE ABLE TO STOCK UP ON THAT WALL, STOCK UP ON THOSE CAN, UH, FOODS, UH, AND AND SHELF SAMPLE FOODS, UM, AND TRASH BAGS, RIGHT? WHERE WE'RE SPECIFICALLY CALLING OUT TRASH BAGS BECAUSE OF THAT INFRASTRUCTURE. 
          IT MIGHT BE NOT WORKING. 
          YOU'RE, YOU'RE, YOU'RE DOING, BUT NOT WORKING. 
          WE NOT TO BE MORE CREATIVE ABOUT HOW WE'RE CAN DISPOSE OF OUR WASTE 
          [01:25:01]
, WHETHER IT'S ALSO WASTE , RIGHT? SO  SPECIFICALLY GOING THAT, I KNOW IT'S FUNNY, BUT BELIEVE ME, SUPER IMPORTANT. 
          AND THEN HELPING OTHERS, UH, YOU KNOW, UH, JAKE AND, AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WITH THEIR SERVICE PROGRAM, AMAZING WORK. 
          UM, I'VE GONE DOING IT MYSELF. 
          UM, GREAT WAY TO BUILD THOSE SKILL SETS, UM, TO MAKE ME MORE, UM, COMFORTABLE, UM, OR, UH, CONFIDENT THAT IT WILL BE ABLE TO ACT, FOLLOW THAT, THAT INCIDENT FOR DISASTER, RIGHT? SO I ENCOURAGE YOU ALL TO, TO GET, UH, SERVED ON TRAINING OUR PROGRAM READY TO RUN LUNCH NEIGHBORHOOD THAT TAKES SPIN, RIGHT? WE, WE WORK AND WE ACKNOWLEDGE THE, THE BENEFIT OF SERVE. 
          HOWEVER, WHERE MANY YEAR LONG BEACH COMES IN IS YOU DO A GREAT JOB OF THOSE, THOSE SKILL SETS AND, AND THEN YOU ORGANIZED TO BUILD TEAMS AND, AND GO OUT AND DO SOME GOOD WORK AND PROTECT YOURSELF AND DO THE FIRST AID. 
          EVERYONE, WHICH NEIGHBORHOOD IS ALL ABOUT NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          AND GETTING TO KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOR, WORKING WITH YOUR NEIGHBORS TO IDENTIFY NEIGHBORHOOD, UH, UH, MEETING POINTS, NEIGHBORHOOD CARE SITES. 
          IF YOU HAVE A LOT OF KIDS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD, ELDERLY ADULTS, UM, THEY MAY NEED A PLACE TO GET TOGETHER WHILE THE OTHER ADULTS GO OUT. 
          MAKE SURE ALL THE OTHER NEIGHBORS ARE SAFE. 
          HEY, MARY, TAKE TAKE CARE OF MY KID. 
          I'M GONNA GO CHECK ON SO AND SO, RIGHT? SO IT'S ALL ABOUT WORKING AS A NEIGHBORHOOD, THEN TOGETHER AS A NEIGHBORHOOD, UM, TO, UH, TO GET THOSE THINGS. 
          SO ONE OF THE BIGGEST THINGS IS, IS WE, WE, YOU KNOW, ONCE YOU'RE, UH, DONE WITH THIS PROGRAM, YOU WORK WITH THE  TO DEVELOP YOUR MEET WITH A PLAN. 
          AND IT'S PRETTY SIMPLE. 
          IF YOU THINK ABOUT 'EM, IF WE'RE ASKING YOU TO GET TOGETHER WITH THE NEIGHBORS, EXCHANGE CONTACT INFORMATION SO YOU KNOW WHERE WE IS ABOUT, TOUCH WITH THEM, IDENTIFY THE SKILLSET WITHIN YOUR NEIGHBORS. 
          A, UM, A RETIREMENT NURSE, I HAVE SKILLS. 
          I'M A TEACHER, I GO OUT AND WORK WITH KIDS. 
          I'M A PLUMBER, I'M AN ELECTRICIAN. 
          ALL THOSE THINGS THAT, YOU KNOW, WE'RE IN OUR NEIGHBORHOODS. 
          WE WE'RE SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE SO MANY SKILL SETS. 
          IT'S ALL ABOUT GETTING TOGETHER AND WORKING TOGETHER, RIGHT? UM, TO BE ABLE TO DEVELOP ALL ALONG THE DISASTER BECAUSE JAKE IS SURVIVE. 
          WE'RE, WE'RE NOT GONNA BE ABLE TO TALK SOMEBODY THAT VIOLENT FOLLOW AN INCIDENT. 
          THEY'RE, THEY'RE GONNA HAVE TO WORK TOGETHER AND, AND HELP EACH OTHER OUT BEFORE THE HELP COMES. 
          UM, AND THEN, UH, ONE LAST THING IS JUST, UH, UM, WE, WE ALSO, THE THREE DISPLAYING, WE, UH, WE, WE IDENTIFY, UH, UH, TOOLS AND, AND, AND, AND ITEMS THAT COULD BE SHARED WITHIN, UH, YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD FOLLOWING AN INCIDENT. 
          SO, SO THINGS THAT WE, UH, WANT TO BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY WHEN US YOUR NEIGHBORS IS, HEY, WHO'S THAT PERSON WHO HAS THAT, THAT LADDER OR THAT FIRE EXTINGUISHER OR THAT POWER STALL, RIGHT? LIKE, WE ALL HAVE THAT NEIGHBOR THAT HAS THEOLOGICAL, THAT'S ALL  THAT KNOW THAT THAT'S KIND OF THE THINGS THAT WE WANT. 
          DO WE WANT BRING OUR NEIGHBORHOODS TOGETHER, RIGHT? WE, WE ALSO GET IT. 
          WE ALL, WE ALL KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE. 
          WE DON'T KNOW WHO OUR NEIGHBOR IS. 
          WE JUST, LIKE JAKE SAID, WE SEE HIM ONCE, ONCE A WEEK. 
          YOU KNOW, THEIR NAME IS JEANIE. 
          BUT BESIDES THAT, WE DON'T REALLY KNOW MUCH ABOUT THEM. 
          THAT'S WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO DO WITH BELONG BEACH NEIGHBORHOOD. 
          GET TOGETHER, LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS LIKE, UM, HOW WE CAN BETTER RUN TOGETHER, WORK TOGETHER, AND, AND WHAT BETTER PURPOSE THEN TO FOCUS ON THESE, UH, POTENTIAL INCIDENTS FOR DISASTERS EACH OTHER. 
          THAT'S IT. 
          THANK PAUL SO MUCH. 
          APPRECIATE. 
          SO I JUST WOULD LIKE TO SAY ALL, ALL, UH, IT SEEMS LIKE  THE FORMAL, WE ACTUALLY A PERMISSION THAT DOES FOLLOW WILL ORDER AND THE , SO THAT IS  ERS. 
          ANY QUESTION ABOUT THIS PIECES? YES. 
          THANK YOU VERY MUCH. 
          I'VE JUST LEARNED SO MUCH. 
          I'VE LEARNED SO MUCH. 
          THANK, THANK YOU . 
          UM, AND I REALLY APPRECIATE JUST ON NEIGHBORHOODS WE GATHER MOST VISITED THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHERE THERE IS ALSO 
          [01:30:01]
ONE CITY ALSO HAS ANOTHER TO WHAT'S THE SPECIFIC, SO WE, WE GOT PREPARED. 
          DON'T MAKE THE DISTINCTION BETWEEN BUSINESSES AND RESIDENCES. 
          THEY'RE ALL PART. 
          UM, SO WE, WE ENCOURAGE, UH, RESIDENTS, , UNDER PIONEER  AS PERIODIC FOR EVERY NEIGHBOR. 
          THEY'RE GONNA BE THERE WHEN SOMETHING, MOST OF THE TIME SOME ARE GONNA BE THERE. 
          SO PHASE FIVE, WE, WE HAVE BUSINESS COMMUNITY, UH, WE DO HAVE A LOT OF INFORMATION HERE TOWARDS, UH, UH, BUSINESS OWNERS AND HOW TO BETTER PREPARED BUSINESS, ALL DISASTER. 
          SO OF INSURANCE, AGAIN, WHAT TYPE ACTION YOU SHOULD BE, UH, WHAT YOU TO MAKE YOUR, YOUR BUSINESS BETTER PREPARED FOR, FOR THAT DISASTER. 
          SURVIVE, RIGHT? ONE, ONE BUSINESS, THE OPERATIONS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. 
          UH, YOU KNOW, KEEP THE LIVES, THOSE THINGS. 
          BUT WHEN IT COMES TO PLANNING, WE'RE LOOKING AT THAT COMMUNITY. 
          WE CONSIDER IT 1, 1, 1 AND THE SAME. 
          IT'S ALL PART OF THE COMMUNITY. 
          WE, WE SHOULD ALL COME WORKING WITH TOGETHER. 
          HOPEFULLY THAT MAKES SENSE. 
          ANOTHER QUESTION, NOT , THIS IS PROBABLY MORE JUST STATEMENT THAT I'M THINKING. 
          I, IN THE, THE DISASTER SITUATION, I WOULD BE MOST CONCERNED PERSONALLY MY UNIVERSITY, ARE THEY THE LARGER FACILITIES THAT HAVE A CHILDREN, ADULTS SKILLED NURSING FACILITY PART THE BUILDINGS. 
          SO I THINK IT IS IMPORTANT, I HOPE THAT THEY HAVE THEIR EVACUATION PLANS CURRENT UP TO DATE. 
          UM, BUT ALSO TO INFORM OR TO MAKE SURE THAT THEY DO REACH OUT TO THEIR LOCAL NEIGHBORHOOD, LIKE THE NEIGHBORHOOD ASSOCIATION, UM, TO SEE IF THERE ARE VOLUNTEERS WHO CAN ALSO LIKE, GET BENEFIT TO CHECK IN ON THEM, TO GET THEM OUT SAFE. 
          JUST PLANTING THAT SEED, MOSTLY  SO THAT I CAN FIGURE OUT HOW TO PUSH THAT OUT TO, TO THE COMMUNITIES. 
          UM, CURRENTLY IT'S SOMETHING I'D LIKE TO DO. 
          , THANK YOU. 
          EARLIER ABOUT WE GAVE MORE STUDENTS WHO WE SAID ARE ABOUT NUMBER SEVEN. 
          UM, WHAT ARE THOSE OFFER, WHETHER THEY ARE, THEY PARTICIPATE . 
          AND THE OTHER THING IS WANTED TO MAKE NOTE. 
          WE HAD  DISASTER THAT CAME ALONG YEARS. 
          ONE OF THE THINGS THAT I  THE ASSISTED PEOPLE WHO HAD THE DOCUMENTS, SCANNED THEIR DOCUMENTS MORE THAN MANUAL PLA DRIVES BRACELET. 
          IT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE NOTICED, OR  FROM TRASH, THEY COULD INCLUDE. 
          THAT IS THEIR HOUSE. 
          WE FIND THEIR INSURANCE POLICIES SYSTEM WE SCANNED IN FOR DOCUMENTS AND WE HAD, SO THEY, SO WE DO THAT AGAIN. 
          AND THE ONE THING I WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY, THESE HAVE A FORMAL CHARGE, CHARGE, THEY GIVE PHONE CHARGE AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THAT .

          UM, SO COMMISSIONERS, I, YOU GUYS DID GET A COPY AND YOU GOT IN YOUR EMAIL THE UPDATED FLYERS AND BROCHURES. 
          SO I'M GONNA GO TO THE FLYERS FIRST. 
          THE TWO FLYERS THAT UM, WE HAVE FOR YOU TODAY ARE THE SAME EXACT FLYER, RIGHT? THEY'RE THE SINGLE-SIDED ONE. 
          JUST WANNA HIGHLIGHT A SUBTLE DIFFERENCE IN THEM. 
          SO ON THE YELLOW ON THE BOTTOM, THERE'S LITTLE LIKE ICONS THAT ARE LISTED VERSUS THE BULLET POINTS. 
          SO I NEED DIRECTION ON IF THERE'S ANY CHANGES TO THE INFORMATION ON THESE FLYER. 
          THESE ARE GENERAL FLYER THAT WE COULD PASS OUT. 
          UM, AND IF YOU LIKE THE ONES WITH THE ICONS OR THE BULLET POINTS AND IF THERE'S ANY CHANGES TO THEM. 
          SO WE'LL TALK ABOUT THAT FIRST. 
          THEN WE CAN MOVE ON TO THE BROCHURE. 
          I THINK THAT WOULD BE THE BEST WAY. 
          OKAY. 
          ANY CHANGES TO THE PILES? DO YOU HAVE A PREFERENCE OF THE ICONS VERSUS THE BULLETS? BULLETS? THE BULLETS? YEAH. 
          OKAY. 
          I'M SORRY.

          OKAY. 
          ABOVE SPECIFIC WEBSITE SPECIFIC BEFORE THE CONDITION IT SAYS ON THOSE PARTS. 
          SO IS THERE ANYTHING WHICH IS DIRECTLY, SPECIFICALLY BY BUSINESS SAYS MARKS DO ORG AND THAT'S, SO THAT DO, SO IT SAYS SOMETHING WHERE WE CAN ADD DISTINGUISHING, UM, WEBSITE ATOR SO THAT WE KNOW THAT THEY GONNA GO DIRECTLY INTO . 
          UM, I WILL CHECK IN REGARDS TO, UM, WITH OUR UM, GRAPHICS DEPARTMENT TO SEE IF THERE'S SOME WAY THEY CAN ADD THAT TO THAT. 
          OKAY, WITH THAT , WE WILL UH, CALL VOTE THIS FRIDAY. 
          [02:00:01]
UH, CHAIR, LET'S NOT VOTE YET. 
          WE STILL HAVE THE BROCHURE AND THEY'RE THE SAME, UM, AGENDA ITEM. 
          WE ALSO NEED PUBLIC COMMENT AFTER THAT. 
          UM, SO YES, ONE MOMENT PLEASE. 
          WE'RE NOT VOTING YET ON THE FLYER 'CAUSE I STILL HAVE THE BROCHURE TO WE, WE WANNA TALK ABOUT THE BROCHURE AND THEN THERE'S PUBLIC COMMENT. 
          YOU CAN KEEP IT UP THERE CHAIR. 
          I'LL JUST USE MY OUTSIDE VOICE. 
          UM, NOW WE HAVE THE UH, BROCHURE THAT THIS IS A CHANGE TO WHAT WE PRESENTED A COUPLE MONTHS AGO. 
          UM, WE HAD UM, SOME FEEDBACK FROM COMMISSIONERS AND SO WE SENT IT TO OUR GRAPHICS DEPARTMENT TO LOOK AT IT TO MAKE SOME OF THE SUGGESTED CHANGES ON HERE. 
          IT HAS A LOT ON THE ORIGINAL ONE WE HAD THE ACTUAL COMMITTEES, IF YOU REMEMBER THEY HAD THE COMMITTEES LISTED, LIKE THE TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE, THE DIFFERENT COMMITTEES. 
          BUT SINCE WE DON'T HAVE ALL THOSE COMMITTEES AND WE HAVE AD HOC COMMITTEES, WE PUT SOME OF THE SAME QUALITIES THAT'S ON UM, THE ADVISORY AGING VISIBILITY PLAN ON THERE. 
          SO A LOT OF THOSE SAME THINGS THAT ARE ON THAT VISIBILITY PLAN ARE ON THE BROCHURE NOW BECAUSE IT'S BASICALLY TALKING ABOUT OVERALL WHAT THE COMMISSION TENDS WANTS TO TALK ABOUT OR ENGAGE WITH OR THE ADVOCATES FOR. 
          SO, UM, THAT WAS THE MAJOR CHANGE FROM THE FIRST EDITION OF THIS BROCHURE THAT I JUST WANTED TO HIGHLIGHT. 
          SO I DON'T KNOW IF YOU GUYS HAVE ANY OTHER CHANGES. 
          MAYBE THAT WEBSITE WOULD BE ONE, UM, THAT WE WANNA MAKE ON THIS. 
          SO PLEASE HAVE A DISCUSSION BASED ON ALL THOSE. 
          THANK YOU. 
          I HAVE A SECTION CROSS COMMISSION COLLABORATION COORDINATING OTHER CITY COMMISSION AND ADVISORY BODIES ADDRESS ISSUES THAT INTERSECT WITH AGING, INCLUDING HOW LONG DISABILITY ACCESS HELP, TRANSPORTATION AND CLIMATE CONSISTENT. 
          OKAY. 
          COMMISSIONERS, DO WE HAVE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING THE NEGOTI? DOES IT MEAN UH, EVERYTHING THAT YOU WANT IT TO BE? MR. IS MEETINGS PURPOSE MEMBERSHIP? IT IMPLIES WITH A MEMBERSHIP OPPORTUNITY IS AVAILABLE TO THE PUBLIC AND IT'S NOT. 
          SO I WAS WONDERING IF WE CAN EITHER HAVE THE NAMES OF THE  REFORM COMMISSIONER AND OR A WEEK OR SOMETHING SO THAT THEY CAN SEE THE BACKGROUND AND THE HISTORY OF THE PEOPLE WHO ARE SERVING TO THEM AS COMMISSIONERS. 
          BECAUSE MEMBERSHIP, IT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE THEY JOIN WELL, AND I THINK THAT WAS THE INTENT. 
          SO IF THERE, IF THE COM UM, COMMISSION WASN'T FULL, HOW FOR THEM TO JOIN AS A COMMISSIONER, I THINK THAT WAS THE MEMBERSHIP PORTION OF IT. 
          BUT WE COULD REMOVE THAT IF THE COMMISSION WANTS AND DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT. 
           REPORT, THEY ALL THEIR OWN COMMISSION. 
          SO THE PART THAT COMMISSIONER SPEAKING ABOUT MEMBERSHIP OF COMMISSION, THE ADVISOR COMMISSIONER, AGING ASSIST OF NINE RESIDENT CITY  FOR AGE 50 OR OLDER COMMISSIONERS ARE, ARE APPOINTED BY AND MAYOR BY THE CITY COUNCIL TO SERVE TWO TERMS. COMMISSIONER MAY REAPPOINTED FOR A MAXIMUM OF 80 YEARS SERVICE. 
          SO THAT NEEDS TO REMAIN THERE BECAUSE THAT IS HOW IT IS MADE UP. 
          SO THAT I SAY THE NAME, OH, WE NEED TO KEEP THIS SIGNED MEETING AND THEY'RE RELATED TO PUBLIC. 
          UM, WHERE, WHERE THE READINGS ARE, WHAT THE OF THIS IS EMPOWER LEADERSHIP TO MAKE THAT, THAT THAT'S IMPORTANT ALSO. 
          UM, ARE THERE ANY OTHER QUESTIONS THAT I WOULD, I'M CONCERNED ABOUT LISTING THINGS THAT I COULD CHANGE AT ANY MOMENT? AND THEN WE HAVE AN 
          [02:05:01]
OLE FOR SURE  THE WAY IT IS. 
          WE COULD MAYBE PUT THE ON THERE SO THAT WAY  SEE ARE, OH THAT'S . 
          SO THAT  SO LATE. 
          SO THAT WOULD BE AN AMENDMENT TO THIS BROCHURE? YES. 
          AND WE'LL AMEND THE MISSION STATEMENT. 
          'CAUSE CLEARLY THE MISSION STATEMENT NOW IS ALL BASED ON THE NEW ONE YOU VOTED ON. 
          SO WE'LL MAKE SURE IT HAS THE NEW MISSION STATEMENT ON THERE AS WELL. 
          OKAY. 
          SO THE NEW MISSION, THE NEW MISSION MAKE THE PRIOR MISSION THAT WE JUST READ WILL BE INCORPORATED INTO THE BROCHURE. 
          ANY OTHER ? IS THERE ANY WAY WE CAN IMPROVE PUBLIC TERMS TO, SO WE HAVE THAT'S UH, IT IS LISTED UNDER THE UM, MISSION, BUT MAYBE I CAN MAKE IT BOLD OR SOMETHING. 
          IT'S UNDER THE MEETING OF THE COMMISSION, SO MAYBE I'LL JUST HAVE THEM MAKE THAT FOLDER BIGGER OR DIFFERENT FONT COLOR TO MAKE SURE IT'S HIGHLIGHTED RIGHT. 
          AND THE MEETINGS OF THE PROBATION UNDER IN THE YELLOW PART, THE VERY PARAGRAPH STANDS, THE PUBLIC IS ENCOURAGED TO LIEUTENANT. 
          OPPORTUNITIES FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS ARE PROVIDING WITH EVERY MEETING THINKING OF WHICH ANYMORE CHAIR CLARK, JUST TO CONFIRM THE AMENDED MOTION I HAVE HERE, UH, WE WOULD LIKE TO ADD A LINK TO THE BROCHURE. 
          WE WILL ALSO UPDATE THE MISSION STATEMENT ON THE BROCHURE AND BOLD THE ATTENDANCE VERBIAGE FOR THE PUBLIC TO ATTEND. 
          IS THAT CORRECT? THAT IS CORRECT. 
          OKAY. 
          AND IS THE MOVER OF THE MOTION OKAY WITH THAT, UH, COMMISSIONER SCHMIDT, IS THAT ACCEPTABLE ? YES. 
          OKAY. 
          JUST TO CONFIRM, THE, UH, IS ASKING THE ONE THAT'S ASKED, ASKING THAT, YES. 
          BUT UH, THE MOVER OF THE MOTION IS COMMISSIONER SCHMIDT. 
          SO I JUST WANTED TO CONFIRM. 
          COMMISSIONER SCHMIDT, ARE YOU OKAY WITH THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS FROM COMMISSIONER HINES? YES.

          SO YOU WOULD, 
          [02:15:01]
YOU WOULD NEED PRIOR AUTHORIZATION, BUT LET'S SEE IF ANY COMMISSIONERS AREN'T INTERESTED IN GIVING PRESENTATIONS TO COMMUNITY ORGANIZATIONS ABOUT  SERVICE AND FUNCTIONS. 
          FOR EXAMPLE, ORGANIZATIONS LIKE THE LONG BEACH  SERVICES COLLABORATIVE REACHED OUT. 
          SO WE NEED TO ASK IF ANYBODY WOULD BE INTERESTED IN SPEAKING AT ONE OF THEIR MEETING. 
          UM, I'M NOT SURE WHO WE NEED TO GET APPROVAL FROM, WHO TO REACH OUT TO IF THERE'S AN INVITATION. 
          SO CAN ANYBODY HERE SPEAK TO THAT OR A FOLLOW UP WOULD BE GOOD? IT IS JUST YOU GUYS AS A COMMISSION HAVE TO VOTE AND NOMINATE SOMEONE. 
          THE ONLY, THE CHAIR CAN SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE COMMISSION WITHOUT APPROVAL. 
          SO IF THERE IS AN EVENT COMING UP OR DIFFERENT THING THAT YOU WANNA GO AT AND SPEAK ON, ON BEHALF OF THE COMMISSION, NOW YOU'RE FREE TO GO AND SPEAK ON BEHALF OF YOURSELF AS A RESIDENT, AS YOU KNOW, WHATEVER YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT. 
          BUT IF YOU SAY I'M REPRESENTING THE COMMISSION ON AGING, YOU HAVE TO GET AUTHORIZATION FROM THE COMMISSION TO SPEAK ON SOMETHING.

          AND, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE LET KNOW BEFORE THE FORMAL PROCESS IF YOU WANTED TO PUT IT ON THERE FOR NEXT MONTH AND THEN YOU GUYS TALK ABOUT IT AND UM, THEN THEY CAN DECIDE IF THEY WANNA BE THE ONE. 
          SO YOU DON'T HAVE TO PREDETERMINE WHO'S GONNA TALK ABOUT IT. 
          YOU GUYS CAN TALK OPENLY AND FIGURE OUT WHO, UM, WOULD LIKE TO BE INTERESTED. 
          YEAH.
