Hello,
Thanks for reviewing and adopting this, good to see we have plans for a lot of these scenarios! One thing I didn't see that I hear a good deal about (even though I work in the sustainability sector) is cyber-security. Living in the 21st century it seems prudent to have a mitigation plan in place in case the digital aspect of City services of unavailable. Maybe this already exists in our IT department and this isn't the place for it? Just a thought as I document and hoping we have something in place! (as an aside I think a lot of these also include "terrorism" as a threat category but I don't see it here - also seems silly given we're a capitol and all!) Thanks,
Matt

The need for this funding is well documented (thank you Council Members Harris and Vang). But the timing is wrong. As the dept. head has admitted, this proposal has been kicking around for years. It is being put forward despite the trillion dollars plus just signed into law by President Biden expressly for funding the proposed projects.
It also is being put forward at a time when the council has just approved other fee increases. In addition, inflation is roaring and housing costs are going thru the roof. The comments during public forums were uniformly negative, including a church leader who said the thousands in new costs would be extremely detrimental. It was opposed by the Chair of the Utility Rate Commission as well. We are in a pandemic. Businesses are closing. Low- and middle-income homeowners are struggling to keep up. I urge you to do what was suggested in the webinar:
phase in this increase over several years or delay it until the new federal $ has been explored. Thanks Agenda Item: eComments for Public Comments-Matters Not on the Agenda Overall Sentiment

In the wake of critical editorials and op-eds in our local newspaper, I just wanted to thank every councilmember for their service. This council -- even those I disagree with -- has been one of the most energetic and hardworking I've witnessed in my more than two decades living in Sacramento. Diversity in opinion is a good thing, not something that should be criticized. The Council has taken a leadership role on many issues; it's the lack of power to the Council and Mayor that has thwarted progress, not a drought of innovation and ideas. I also want to thank Mayor Steinberg for his leadership on homelessness issues. Contrary to the op-ed by someone from outside our county, there is no stronger leader in our region, and perhaps our state, than our Mayor. Again, I may not agree with every proposal, but the commitment to solving this crisis is unmatched by any local leader. Thank you all for your commitment to our city.
