Good morning.

This is a special meeting of the environment committee.

However, we are short one committee member.

So we will not actually officially open the meeting until about nine ten.

So we appreciate your patience as well as anybody that's watching remotely.

So with that, good morning, and welcome to the special environment committee meeting of April twenty-seventh, twenty twenty three.

I am Joel Ocava, Council Member for District One and Chair of the Committee.

Our committee's manager, Ty Birch will go over instructions for today's meeting.

This meeting is being televised and live streamed on the C's website, and council administration will continue to make arrangements for the public to comment using the Zoom webinar platform.

Members of the public who wish to provide virtual testimony must enter the virtual speaking queue by raising their hand before the virtual queue closes.

The queue will close when the last virtual speaker finishes speaking, or five minutes after in-person testimony concludes, whichever occurs first.

This will allow for bare-meaning management between the two platforms and ensure that the committee is able to manage and conduct city business.

We appreciate the public's cooperation.

Chair.

Thank you, I will now call a special environment committee meeting of Thursday, April 27th, 2023 to order.

Thank you, Ty, for reviewing those instructions for the benefit of the public.

A quorum is present so we can get underway.

First up is non-agenda public comment.

The council members respect and appreciate the public's input and are fully committed to protecting every participant's free speech rights at council and committee meetings.

Hi, please proceed with non-agenda public comment.

Thank you, Chair.

Per Rule 2.7, non-agenda public comment is an opportunity for members of the public to comment on items that are not on the agenda, but within the subject matter jurisdiction of the committee.

Each speaker will have two minutes for non-agenda public comment.

Uh Chair, we do have one individual uh in chambers that has submitted a speaker slip for non-agenda public comment.

So Caesar and Preda, you may come up to the lectern if you would like.

You will have two minutes.

Either of them is fine.

Good morning.

We are vulnerable residents and need help to obey.

Stop a home-based business, home occupation in ceramics manufacturing, and industrial caden operation located at 5238, Streamview Drive, my Cholas Area, District 9 of City of San Diego since 1984.

It is and has been a potential harm to human and the environment.

Our physical experiences and exposure since 1997 for my wife and for myself since 2012, are true and real, such as sneezing, coughing, smoke fumes irritating to the eyes, sore throat, vomiting, difficulty and breathing, unusual headache, unusual health or heart palpitation, anxiety, depression, fear, up to this very hour.

We were hospitalized.

Twice for her, heart palpitation, unusual, once for me, unusual headache.

And we are both close monitored by our respective hospitals.
