Chair, staff is ready when you are.

Good evening.

Welcome to the October 23, 2024 meeting.

The time is now 5.30.

The meeting is now called to order.

Will the clerk please call the roll to establish a quorum.

Thank you, Chair.

Commissioner, if you can please unmute.

Vice Chair, Eberley.

Here.

Commissioner Johnson.

And Chair Zito.

Here.

Thank you. We have a quorum.

Okay. I would like to remind members of the public and chambers that if you would like to speak on an agenda item, please turn in a speaker slip when the item begins.

You have two minutes to speak once you are called on.

After the first speaker, we will no longer accept speaker slips.

We will now proceed with today's agenda.

Okay. Please rise for the opening acknowledgments and honor of Sacramento's Indigenous people in tribal lands.

Okay.

To the original people of this land, the Nisun people, the southern Maidu Valley and Plains, Miwok, Puthan, Wintan peoples and the people of Wilton Rancheria, Sacramento is only federal recognized.

We acknowledge and honor the native people who came before us and still walk besides us today on these ancestral lands by choosing together together in the active practice of acknowledgement and appreciation for Sacramento's Indigenous people's history, contributions and lives.

Thank you. Please remain standing for the Pledge of Allegiance.

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Alrighty.

Our first business today is the approval of the consent calendar.

Are there any members of the public who wish to speak on the consent calendar?

Thank you, Chair. I have no speakers for the consent calendar.

Okay. Thank you. Are there any commissioners who wish to speak on this item?

Anybody? Okay. Is there a motion and a second for the consent calendar?

To approve.

A motion to approve.

We have a second.

Okay. Let's see. Will the clerk please call the roll for the vote?

Yes. And just to confirm we have a motion by Vice Chair Eberley and is it second by Commissioner Tran?

Perfect. Thank you. And commissioners, please unmute.

Vice Chair Eberley? Yes.

Commissioner Johnson? Yes.

Commissioner Tran? Yes. And Chair Zito? Yes.

Thank you. The motion passes.

Okay. We will now proceed to the discussion calendar.

Is there a staff presentation? Let's see.

There should be. We have one here.

Discussion. That answers the department.

We have the department of utilities, the 2020 to 2025.

Strategic plan update.

Is that right?

Okay. I'm sorry.

Oh, okay.

Good evening commissioners. My name is Yvette and Glon.

I'm the chief of staff to the director of utilities.

I'm here today to share with you the department of utilities strategic plan.

So I will start out by quickly sharing with you our mission vision and values.

And that's just because our director shared those with you back in August and her presentation.

I'll spend a bit more time going over our goals, objectives, objectives, and highlight for you some of our accomplishments over the years, as well as some of our planned actions for this fiscal year.

I will note that during COVID and the year after we did not make much progress and implementation of our strategic plan just because of course we were focused on keeping our employees safe and keeping our core services going for our customers.
