Sergeant Fenton Cully with Alameda County Sheriff's Office.

I supervise our real-time information center.

And I just wanted to let the uh board know that uh and everybody uh attending this meeting that we will be uh moving forward at the unincorporated services meeting on June 24th.

That'll be uh down in San Lorenzo, office O'Brande.

And we will be presenting um automated license plate readers, our drone first responder program, as well as our pan-tilled Zoom cameras, um, and that will be uh eventually going to the board for a vote on June 30th.

So if anyone would like to attend that, you're more than welcome to.

We want uh community input, and that's all I have.

Thank you.

Yes, sir, it's it's June 24th on the uh unincorporated area.

Committee, but the board can board date.

The actual Board of Supervisors vote will be June 30th.

Okay, yes, sir.

Thank you.

Thank you.

I have no other.

Oh, I'm sorry, I have a caller.

You're on the line.

You have three minutes, Kelly.

All right, thank you.

Yeah, just uh the uh county administrator and the county council just uh talked about some new law that's coming in, and it's gonna give uh all the Macs the um opportunity or option or possibility.

Uh and I think it's your choice.

I don't, I don't think it's um that this is something some other somebody tells you to do this.

I think you have to choose to do this, to do a lot more uh remote meetings.

And of course that's lower cost, and that way then their idea is that maybe they don't have to send out staff person out to the middle of nowhere to meet to uh to uh you know uh work at one of these uh meetings, um, and that that would save them a lot of a lot of trouble.

Um this is I and I just want to you know express my little my feeling about it's because I'm not sitting there going to all these meetings like you do, but uh the you know if if uh if there's the opportunity to do more remote meetings, I'd I'd say why not hybrid?

Why not do do a few of these remote meetings or and uh do and keep doing the in-person stuff quite a bit because uh I think there's value in in-person.

And you saw what happened, uh I think the pandemic was a big uh big lesson where uh they tried uh remote things, uh remote uh remote what was it, remote learning is what they called it.

And all the schools were doing that, and uh that it looked great on paper, except it doesn't work and and all the the performance and all the educational stuff went down down the down the toilet.

So I think the same with uh with the in-person meetings.

Yeah, you still have to have them uh quite a bit, maybe not all the time, but uh there is there's a lot of value.

Thank you so uh basically carl moose and i'm here to address where is the paperwork when we have a trip in fall due to a tree well on the sidewalk the county's tree wells so for an insurance claim where's the paperwork and how do we file a complaint when a bicyclist hits a pedestrian do you call CHP what do you do is it a is it a crash report what is it what makes it legal for a bicycle to be on the sidewalk scooters and e-bikes at the same time a pedestrian there's no room uh staff will follow up Fran you're on the line for public comment hi this is Fran Krug Chair Anglin you may have been announcing this in your comments later but I wanted to share two things regarding the fireworks ordinance the board of supervisors did pass it unanimously on Tuesday yesterday Bob Clark and I attended the sheriff's advisory committee meeting to thank Captain McMillan and Sergeant Imperial as well as Sheriff Sanchez for their work on getting the ordinance uh developed researched and ultimately enacted we were very pleasantly uh not surprised but very much relieved to hear there's going to be a major rollout PR program uh announcing the changes in the fireworks and there have received funding for a postcard to be mailed to all residents in the unincorporated areas of Alameda County um they also acknowledge the work that the Fairview Mac and Fairview residents had uh done to get this fireworks ordinance enacted thank you very much I have no other speakers for this item thank you we'll close public comment sorry chair before we move on um we do need to take public comment on the uh call the order roll call and pledge of allegiance so if you just want to open up public comment for anything on there and then close it okay do you have any public comment on those three items?
