16
00:01:05,498 --> 00:01:07,667
THAT I HAVE RECEIVED. THIS IS 

17
00:01:07,667 --> 00:01:08,368

00:01:18,778 --> 00:01:24,017
BULLET IS IN THE WALL ABOVE MY

00:01:24,017 --> 00:01:27,287
NEWBORN. THIS EMAIL STRING WAS 

23
00:01:27,287 --> 00:01:32,759

BARNES, TO THE COUNCIL, AND 

25
00:01:35,428 --> 00:01:37,864
OTHERS. I RESPONDED BACK TO 

26
00:01:37,864 --> 00:01:40,433
JAKE, WHO IS THE FATHER OF THAT 

27
00:01:40,433 --> 00:01:41,701
NEWBORN, AND I WROTE TO HIM, 

28
00:01:41,701 --> 00:01:43,703
THANK YOU FOR SOUNDING THE ALARM

29
00:01:43,703 --> 00:01:49,242
ON WHAT IS HAPPENING IN YOUR 

30
00:01:49,242 --> 00:01:49,909
NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S NOT RIGHT. 

31
00:01:49,909 --> 00:01:51,544
IT'S NOT ACCEPTABLE. SINCE 

32
00:01:51,544 --> 00:01:53,146
BECOMING THE CHAIR OF THE PUBLIC

33
00:01:53,146 --> 00:01:53,980
SAFETY COMMITTEE, WE HAVE BEEN 

34
00:01:53,980 --> 00:01:58,017
WORKING HARD TO CREATE A SAFE 

35
00:01:58,017 --> 00:02:00,186
BASE IN OUR CITY, AND 

36
00:02:00,186 --> 00:02:02,155
IDENTIFYING TO ADDRESS THE 

37
00:02:02,155 --> 00:02:04,424
PERMISSIVE ENVIRONMENT IN OUR 

38
00:02:04,424 --> 00:02:09,395
CITY FOR A STRATEGIC PLAN FOR A 

39
00:02:09,395 --> 00:02:10,029
FRAMEWORK FOR SEATTLE. BUT NOT 

40
00:02:10,029 --> 00:02:17,937
ENOUGH SINCE THERE'S WORK TO BE

41
00:02:17,937 --> 00:02:20,240
DONE. WE'VE UPDATED OUR PLAN TO

42
00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:21,541
ADDRESS GUN VIOLENCE, ADDRESS 

43
00:02:21,541 --> 00:02:23,409
PUBLIC HOUSING AND HEALTH 

44
00:02:23,409 --> 00:02:24,110
SERVICES. WHAT IS HAPPENING IN 

45
00:02:24,110 --> 00:02:25,645
AURORA IS DIFFERENT, BUT REALLY 

46
00:02:25,645 --> 00:02:27,313
THE SAME TO WHAT WE'VE BEEN 

47
00:02:27,313 --> 00:02:30,517
SEEING IN OTHER AREAS OF OUR 

48
00:02:30,517 --> 00:02:32,852
CITY, SUCH AS LITTLE SAIGON. ON 

49
00:02:32,852 --> 00:02:34,220
LITTLE SAIGON, I SPOKE [ 

50
00:02:34,220 --> 00:02:36,256
INAUDIBLE ] ON APRIL 24th, WHICH

51
00:02:36,256 --> 00:02:40,727
WAS ADDED TO BY COUNCILMEMBER 

52
00:02:40,727 --> 00:02:42,228
LIN. IN THE MIDDLE OF THAT, 

53
00:02:42,228 --> 00:02:44,964
REMARKS, I NOTED THERE WERE 

54
00:02:44,964 --> 00:02:46,332
SEVERAL REASONS WHY WE'RE STILL

55
00:02:46,332 --> 00:02:48,301
WHERE WE ARE WITH PUBLIC SAFETY 

56
00:02:48,301 --> 00:02:49,669
AND CHALLENGES LIKE AURORA. I 

57
00:02:49,669 --> 00:02:51,204
SPOKE TO THE FOLLOWING. I SAID 

58
00:02:51,204 --> 00:02:54,240
THAT WE ARE A CITY OF TWO MINDS.

59
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,976
WE'RE PARALYZED, A LOT OF 

60
00:02:56,976 --> 00:02:58,545
TIMES, OR WE'RE WORKING CROSS 

61
00:02:58,545 --> 00:03:00,713
PURPOSES. WE LACK BALANCE WITH A

62
00:03:00,713 --> 00:03:02,048
SIMILAR FOCUS ON OUR NEIGHBORS 

63
00:03:02,048 --> 00:03:03,650
IN CRISIS, WHICH WE SHOULD START

64
00:03:03,650 --> 00:03:05,485
WITH, BUT NOT WITH A FOCUS, BUT 

65
00:03:05,485 --> 00:03:07,854
A FOCUS NEEDED TO ON THE 

66
00:03:07,854 --> 00:03:09,956
NEIGHBORHOODS IN CRISIS. SO YES,

67
00:03:09,956 --> 00:03:12,292
START WITH COMPASSION. BUT THEN 

68
00:03:12,292 --> 00:03:14,827
HAVE THE WISDOM TO LOOK OUT FOR 

69
00:03:14,827 --> 00:03:19,532
OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND 

70
00:03:19,532 --> 00:03:22,702
COMMUNITIES IN CRISIS. BY THE 

71
00:03:22,702 --> 00:03:26,239
WAY, IT'S COMMUNITIES TOO, LIKE

72
00:03:26,239 --> 00:03:28,908
LGBTQ PLUS. WE LACK THE 

73
00:03:28,908 --> 00:03:30,610
IMPLEMENTATION OF THE -- BY THE 

74
00:03:30,610 --> 00:03:32,445
EXECUTIVE BRANCH OVER TIME, NOT 

75
00:03:32,445 --> 00:03:35,949
JUST IN THIS ADMINISTRATION, THE

76
00:03:35,949 --> 00:03:36,616
PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATION, AND 

77
00:03:36,616 --> 00:03:41,254
SOMETIMES THAT OF PUBLIC SAFETY 

78
00:03:41,254 --> 00:03:46,225
BILLS PUT INTO LAW. DO WE HAVE A

79
00:03:46,225 --> 00:03:47,894
[ INAUDIBLE ] CONTRACT? SOUTH 

80
00:03:47,894 --> 00:03:49,662
KING COUNTY, REGIONAL 

81
00:03:49,662 --> 00:03:50,563
CORRECTIONS FACILITY? THAT WOULD

82
00:03:50,563 --> 00:03:52,899
BE HELPFUL. AND THERE'S OTHER 

83
00:03:52,899 --> 00:03:55,668
BILLS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN 

84
00:03:55,668 --> 00:03:57,804
FOLLOWED THROUGH. WE LACK 

85
00:03:57,804 --> 00:04:00,340
ACCOUNTABILITY TO MATCH THE 

86
00:04:00,340 --> 00:04:01,641
COMPASSION IN OUR EFFORTS. WE 

87
00:04:01,641 --> 00:04:03,176
LACK IMMIGRATION WITH ONE HAND, 

88
00:04:03,176 --> 00:04:07,380
PUBLIC SAFETY, BUT ON THE OTHER 

89
00:04:07,380 --> 00:04:12,952
HAND, PUBLIC HEALTH, HOUSING, 

90
00:04:12,952 --> 00:04:14,387
AND HUMAN SERVICES. THAT SCENE 

91
00:04:14,387 --> 00:04:15,321
BETWEEN PUBLIC SAFETY, PUBLIC 

92
00:04:15,321 --> 00:04:17,657
HEALTH AND HOUSING IS KEY, AND 

93
00:04:17,657 --> 00:04:19,259
IT'S SHOWING UP ON AURORA. 

94
00:04:19,259 --> 00:04:23,096
IT'S SHOWING UP ON AURORA, WITH

95
00:04:23,096 --> 00:04:24,797
THE SEX TRADE, AND THE INABILITY

96
00:04:24,797 --> 00:04:28,034
OF US TO TAKE ACTION. WE WILL 

97
00:04:28,034 --> 00:04:29,502
CONTINUE OUR EFFORTS HERE IN 

98
00:04:29,502 --> 00:04:31,638
COMMITTEE FOR COMMUNITIES LIKE 

99
00:04:31,638 --> 00:04:33,373
AURORA AND OTHERS WITH OUR 

100
00:04:33,373 --> 00:04:33,973
STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK PLAN. WE 

101
00:04:33,973 --> 00:04:37,377
WILL WORK, FOR EXAMPLE, TO 

102
00:04:37,377 --> 00:04:39,379
ACHIEVE THE GOAL OF 1,258 SWORN 

103
00:04:39,379 --> 00:04:43,549
OFFICERS BY SPD BY THE END OF 

104
00:04:43,549 --> 00:04:45,685
THIS YEAR. THAT IS OUR GOAL. AND

105
00:04:45,685 --> 00:04:49,422
WE HAVE TO REACH IT. THAT'S THE

106
00:04:49,422 --> 00:04:51,524
FIRST PILLAR OF OUR STRATEGIC 

107
00:04:51,524 --> 00:04:53,293
FRAMEWORK PLAN, SPD STAFFING. 

108
00:04:53,293 --> 00:04:53,993
IT'S INCREDIBLY IMPORTANT. AND 

109
00:04:53,993 --> 00:04:55,228
WE SUPPORT A FULLY OPERATIONAL 

110
00:04:55,228 --> 00:04:57,697
CAPACITY FOR THE REALTIME CRIME 

111
00:04:57,697 --> 00:05:03,369
CENTER THAT CAN LEVERAGE THE 

112
00:05:03,369 --> 00:05:05,104
AURORA CC TV PROGRAM. BY THE 

113
00:05:05,104 --> 00:05:07,940
WAY, THE REALTIME CRIME CENTERS 

114
00:05:07,940 --> 00:05:10,209
ACROSS THE CITY HELPS US ALL. 

115
00:05:10,209 --> 00:05:14,514
IT'S NOT JUST RELATED TO THE 

116
00:05:14,514 --> 00:05:15,448
PLACES OF CC TV. AS WE'RE 

117
00:05:15,448 --> 00:05:16,382
SEEING, SOME ACTIONS, SOME 

118
00:05:16,382 --> 00:05:18,685
ACTIVITY HAS BEEN HAPPENING IN 

119
00:05:18,685 --> 00:05:22,188
THE NEIGHBORHOODS NEXT TO 

120
00:05:22,188 --> 00:05:23,823
AURORA. AND WE HAVE TO TAKE 

121
00:05:23,823 --> 00:05:29,095
ACTION ON THAT, AND THE REALTIME

122
00:05:29,095 --> 00:05:31,931
CRIME CENTER CAN DO THAT. 

123
00:05:31,931 --> 00:05:32,732
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE WILSON 

124
00:05:32,732 --> 00:05:33,900
ADMINISTRATION ON STRATEGIC 

125
00:05:33,900 --> 00:05:35,902
FRAMEWORK PLAN TO INCLUDE A 

126
00:05:35,902 --> 00:05:39,138
NUMBER OF BILLS THAT ARE BEING 

127
00:05:39,138 --> 00:05:41,040
INTRODUCED IN JUNE, IN AREAS 

128
00:05:41,040 --> 00:05:42,875
SUCH AS PUBLIC DRUG USE AND 

129
00:05:42,875 --> 00:05:44,177
RESPONSE TO HELP MEET THE 

130
00:05:44,177 --> 00:05:47,280
CHALLENGES ON OUR STREET. I WILL

131
00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:50,416
CLOSE BY ADDING THAT OUR SIXTH 

132
00:05:50,416 --> 00:05:51,250
PILLAR OF OUR STRATEGIC 

133
00:05:51,250 --> 00:05:52,485
FRAMEWORK PLAN IS OUR CITY 

134
00:05:52,485 --> 00:05:53,386
WORKING IN ONE VOICE, ONE 

135
00:05:53,386 --> 00:05:55,254
SEATTLE, IF YOU WILL, WITH THE 

136
00:05:55,254 --> 00:05:56,856
COUNTY AND THE STATE. THIS IS 

137
00:05:56,856 --> 00:05:58,524
IMPORTANT BECAUSE THE COUNTY HAS

138
00:05:58,524 --> 00:06:03,162
CAPACITY ON PUBLIC SAFETY ON 

139
00:06:03,162 --> 00:06:04,864
AURORA. IT IS A MAJOR TRANSIT 

140
00:06:04,864 --> 00:06:07,700
CORRIDOR, WITH THE KING COUNTY 

141
00:06:07,700 --> 00:06:09,001
SHERIFF'S OFFICE, AND KING 

142
00:06:09,001 --> 00:06:09,836
COUNTY METRO TRANSIT SECURITY. 

143
00:06:09,836 --> 00:06:11,671
WE NEED GREATER PARTNERSHIP WITH

144
00:06:11,671 --> 00:06:13,406
THE COUNTY AND THE AREA, TO 

145
00:06:13,406 --> 00:06:15,808
TACKLE THE PROBLEM WHEN THERE'S

146
00:06:15,808 --> 00:06:17,577
SHOOTINGS AND A BULLET IN THE 

147
00:06:17,577 --> 00:06:22,315
WALL, JUST ABOVE A NEWBORN'S 

148
00:06:22,315 --> 00:06:25,852
CRIB, I WOULD IMAGINE. THE STATE

149
00:06:25,852 --> 00:06:31,090
IS IMPORTANT FOR MANY REASONS AS

150
00:06:31,090 --> 00:06:33,259
WELL TO INCLUDE MENTAL HEALTH. 

151
00:06:33,259 --> 00:06:34,560
REGARDING OLYMPIA, I'LL ADD 

152
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,662
IMAGINE IF REP DAVIS'S BILL 

153
00:06:36,662 --> 00:06:39,198
FOCUSED ON MEN INVOLVED IN THE 

154
00:06:39,198 --> 00:06:42,201
SEX TRADE, ON AURORA, IN THE 

155
00:06:42,201 --> 00:06:43,636
RECENT SEASON SESSION THAT 

156
00:06:43,636 --> 00:06:45,304
PASSED. THE BILL DIDN'T PASS IN

157
00:06:45,304 --> 00:06:47,039
AURORA. IT WOULD HAVE MADE A 

158
00:06:47,039 --> 00:06:49,976
DIFFERENCE TO WHAT WE'RE SEEING

159
00:06:49,976 --> 00:06:51,377
ON AURORA, BUT IT DIDN'T PASS. 

160
00:06:51,377 --> 00:06:54,413
ARGUABLY, THE SAME, WE LACK THE 

161
00:06:54,413 --> 00:06:58,651
LEADERSHIP AND SO FORTH REASONS 

162
00:06:58,651 --> 00:07:00,420
APPLY TO OLYMPIA AS WELL. YOU 

163
00:07:00,420 --> 00:07:02,221
CAN ARGUE THAT THEY'RE OF TWO 

164
00:07:02,221 --> 00:07:05,525
MINDS TOO. THAT BILL SHOULD HAVE

165
00:07:05,525 --> 00:07:07,326
PASSED, AND IT DIDN'T. AND THE 

166
00:07:07,326 --> 00:07:08,828
REACTION IS -- YOU KNOW, THE 

167
00:07:08,828 --> 00:07:13,866
FACTOR IN TERMS OF WHAT WE'RE 

168
00:07:13,866 --> 00:07:16,235
SEEING ON AURORA IS BECAUSE OF 

169
00:07:16,235 --> 00:07:20,873
THAT. IT COULD HAVE MADE A 

170
00:07:20,873 --> 00:07:23,376
DIFFERENCE. SO I CALL ON THE 

171
00:07:23,376 --> 00:07:24,143
WILSON ADMINISTRATION, WHO IS 

172
00:07:24,143 --> 00:07:28,548
NOT HERE RIGHT NOW, TO WORK WITH

173
00:07:28,548 --> 00:07:32,485
THE KING COUNTY SHERIFF'S 

174
00:07:32,485 --> 00:07:33,419
OFFICE. WORK WITH EXECUTIVES, 

175
00:07:33,419 --> 00:07:35,254
THE SHERIFF'S OFFICE, IN TERMS 

176
00:07:35,254 --> 00:07:37,356
OF KING COUNTY METRO SECURITY, 

177
00:07:37,356 --> 00:07:40,326
AND I SHOULD ADD KING COUNTY 

178
00:07:40,326 --> 00:07:41,994
JAIL TOO. BECAUSE AS I NOTED, WE

179
00:07:41,994 --> 00:07:44,263
DON'T HAVE THE SCORE AGREEMENT.

180
00:07:44,263 --> 00:07:46,899
WHERE ARE WE ON THIS? SO THAT 

181
00:07:46,899 --> 00:07:53,139
CONCLUDES THE CHAIR COMMENT FOR 

182
00:07:53,139 --> 00:07:53,973
TODAY. AND AGAIN, 17 PAGES.

00:07:53,973 --> 00:07:56,409
COUNCILMEMBER JUAREZ IS NOT HERE

184
00:07:56,409 --> 00:07:59,111

185
00:07:59,111 --> 00:08:01,914
FOLLOW-UP, AS I DID IN APRIL 

186
00:08:01,914 --> 00:08:04,617

ON THE COMMITTEE. CLERK, HOW 

197
00:08:32,812 --> 00:08:35,314

00:08:37,650 --> 00:08:42,588
EIGHT, SEVEN ONLINE. 

201
00:08:42,588 --> 00:08:45,191

202
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:46,692
MINUTES EACH, PLEASE. 

203
00:08:46,692 --> 00:08:49,095

00:08:57,904 --> 00:08:59,005
THEY REGISTERED. SPEAKERS WILL

00:08:59,005 --> 00:09:00,706
HEAR A CHIME WHEN THERE'S TEN 

209
00:09:00,706 --> 00:09:02,241
SECONDS LEFT OF THEIR TIME. THE 

210
00:09:02,241 --> 00:09:03,943
PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD IS NOW 

211
00:09:03,943 --> 00:09:06,312
OPEN. WE'LL BEGIN WITH THE 

212
00:09:06,312 --> 00:09:09,282
FIRST SPEAKER ON THE LIST. THE 

213
00:09:09,282 --> 00:09:13,920
FIRST IN-PERSON SPEAKER IS JEFF 

214
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:14,520
SILVERMAN, TO BE FOLLOWED BY 

215
00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,791
JAKE. 

216
00:09:18,791 --> 00:09:21,661
>> MY NAME IS JEFF SILVERMAN. 

217
00:09:21,661 --> 00:09:24,163
I'M HERE TO TALK ABOUT BOTH MY 

218
00:09:24,163 --> 00:09:26,832
CITY AND MY PERSONAL ROAD TO 

219
00:09:26,832 --> 00:09:28,067
DISASTER PREPAREDNESS. THE FIRST

220
00:09:28,067 --> 00:09:32,371
AMENDMENT PROTECTS MY RIGHT TO 

221
00:09:32,371 --> 00:09:35,575
COMPLAIN ABOUT THE GOVERNMENT. 

222
00:09:35,575 --> 00:09:37,109
FURTHERMORE, SPEAKING THE TRUTH 

223
00:09:37,109 --> 00:09:37,777
IS AGAINST DEFAMATION. HOWEVER 

224
00:09:37,777 --> 00:09:40,212
MY WIFE AND MY MOTHER SAID IF 

225
00:09:40,212 --> 00:09:44,650
YOU CAN'T SAY ANYTHING NICE 

226
00:09:44,650 --> 00:09:46,452
ABOUT SOMEBODY, DON'T SAY 

227
00:09:46,452 --> 00:09:50,356
ANYTHING AT ALL. THEREFORE I'M 

228
00:09:50,356 --> 00:09:51,524
NOT GOING TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT 

229
00:09:51,524 --> 00:09:53,392
THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT AND

230
00:09:53,392 --> 00:09:55,227
THEIR TREATMENT OF FEMA. I WANT 

231
00:09:55,227 --> 00:09:56,462
TO TELL YOU WHAT I'VE LEARNED 

232
00:09:56,462 --> 00:09:57,563
SINCE I LAST SPOKE WITH YOU. THE

233
00:09:57,563 --> 00:10:01,200
CITY IS NOT GOING TO DO WHAT I 

234
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:02,568
WANT THEM TO DO, NAMELY A 

235
00:10:02,568 --> 00:10:06,706
CITYWIDE ACTIVATION OF THE 

236
00:10:06,706 --> 00:10:07,807
EMERGENCY HUBS AND THE EOC AND 

237
00:10:07,807 --> 00:10:10,910
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DO IT FOR 

238
00:10:10,910 --> 00:10:11,510
GOOD REASON. THE CITY JUST 

239
00:10:11,510 --> 00:10:12,645
DOESN'T HAVE THE RESOURCES TO 

240
00:10:12,645 --> 00:10:15,281
DO WHAT IT WANTS TO DO. IT ALSO 

241
00:10:15,281 --> 00:10:18,017
DOESN'T HAVE RESOURCES TO KEEP 

242
00:10:18,017 --> 00:10:21,187
PEOPLE FROM DYING OF 

243
00:10:21,187 --> 00:10:24,423
MALNUTRITION, HYPOTHERMIA, OR 

244
00:10:24,423 --> 00:10:27,226
SUBSTANCE ABUSE. IT IS YOUR JOB 

245
00:10:27,226 --> 00:10:29,829
AS COUNSEL LEADERS. IT'S FAR 

246
00:10:29,829 --> 00:10:34,300
EASIER TO BE A GAD FIGHT FOR 

247
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:35,067
MYSELF, THAN YOU, POLICYMAKERS. 

248
00:10:35,067 --> 00:10:36,869
I DO NOT ENVY YOU ON WHAT YOU 

249
00:10:36,869 --> 00:10:38,337
HAVE TO DO. SINCE I LAST SPOKE 

250
00:10:38,337 --> 00:10:41,907
TO YOU, I GOT MY HAM RADIO 

251
00:10:41,907 --> 00:10:44,210
LICENSE AND HAVE SUBMITTED MY 

252
00:10:44,210 --> 00:10:45,878
MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION TO 

253
00:10:45,878 --> 00:10:46,846
SEATTLE OCS. THE OEM IS VETTING 

254
00:10:46,846 --> 00:10:49,749
MY APPLICATION, EVEN AS I SPEAK.

255
00:10:49,749 --> 00:10:52,585
I PREDICT THEY WILL FIND THAT 

256
00:10:52,585 --> 00:10:53,653
I'M SHARP. I'M IN CONTACT WITH

257
00:10:53,653 --> 00:10:55,554
SEVERAL ACS MEMBERS, AND THEY 

258
00:10:55,554 --> 00:10:56,922
ARE GOING TO FIND SOMETHING 

259
00:10:56,922 --> 00:10:58,724
USEFUL FOR ME TO DO DURING THE 

260
00:10:58,724 --> 00:11:03,195
FIFA GAMES. I'M GOING TO BE 

261
00:11:03,195 --> 00:11:06,499
PART OF THE SOLUTION. I'M ALSO 

262
00:11:06,499 --> 00:11:08,501
NOW QUALIFIED TO BE THE 

263
00:11:08,501 --> 00:11:09,335
IMMEDIATE OPERATOR. IF THERE'S 

264
00:11:09,335 --> 00:11:11,537
A DISASTER, THE HUBS ARE GOING 

265
00:11:11,537 --> 00:11:12,471
TO DO THEIR THING, AND THEY'RE 

266
00:11:12,471 --> 00:11:14,607
GOING TO BE GOOD AT IT. THERE'S

267
00:11:14,607 --> 00:11:16,609
A PICTURE ON PAGE 12 OF THE 

268
00:11:16,609 --> 00:11:17,910
PRESENTATION THEY'RE GOING TO 

269
00:11:17,910 --> 00:11:19,545
GIVE YOU IN A FEW MINUTES, AND 

270
00:11:19,545 --> 00:11:21,814
I'M STANDING ABOUT SIX FEET TO 

271
00:11:21,814 --> 00:11:24,083
THE LEFT OF THAT PICTURE. 

272
00:11:24,083 --> 00:11:26,419
>> THANK YOU. THANK YOU. 

273
00:11:26,419 --> 00:11:28,988
>> NEXT UP IS JAKE, TO BE 

274
00:11:28,988 --> 00:11:31,824
FOLLOWED BY KENDALL. 

275
00:11:31,824 --> 00:11:33,426
>> I SHOULD ADD THAT I DIDN'T 

276
00:11:33,426 --> 00:11:35,094
REALIZE YOU WERE GOING TO BE 

277
00:11:35,094 --> 00:11:40,232
HERE, BUT JAKE IS JAKE. 

278
00:11:40,232 --> 00:11:44,770
>> COUNCILMAN LIN, KETTLE, SAKA,

279
00:11:44,770 --> 00:11:45,571
THANKS FOR THE TIME. COUNCILMAN 

280
00:11:45,571 --> 00:11:52,078
KETTLE, THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE 

281
00:11:52,078 --> 00:11:52,912
AS WELL. APPRECIATE YOU. I 

282
00:11:52,912 --> 00:11:54,180
BELIEVE IN [ INAUDIBLE ] AND 

283
00:11:54,180 --> 00:11:55,948
UNFORTUNATELY OUR CITY 

284
00:11:55,948 --> 00:11:58,918
LEADERSHIP IS BROKEN. I'VE 

285
00:11:58,918 --> 00:12:01,020
LIVED IN THE CITY IN DISTRICT 

286
00:12:01,020 --> 00:12:03,656
FIVE SINCE 2012. I'VE DONE THE 

287
00:12:03,656 --> 00:12:05,858
WORK IN MY COMMUNITY. I'VE 

288
00:12:05,858 --> 00:12:08,094
VOLUNTEERED, I GOT TO KNOW MY 

289
00:12:08,094 --> 00:12:10,329
NEIGHBORS. I DID WHAT I CAN DO. 

290
00:12:10,329 --> 00:12:12,998
I ENGAGED WITH CITY COUNCIL WHEN

291
00:12:12,998 --> 00:12:17,803
I SAW PROBLEMS AND OUR STATE 

292
00:12:17,803 --> 00:12:19,772
REPS AND SPD. I TESTIFIED FOR 

293
00:12:19,772 --> 00:12:21,006
HB1265 BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT THE 

294
00:12:21,006 --> 00:12:25,478
COUNCIL TOLD ME I COULD DO AS A 

295
00:12:25,478 --> 00:12:28,247
CITIZEN. I CARE ABOUT OUR CITY, 

296
00:12:28,247 --> 00:12:31,050
AND I'VE BEEN PLEADING FOR HELP

297
00:12:31,050 --> 00:12:32,585
IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD FOR THE PAST 

298
00:12:32,585 --> 00:12:33,719
SIX MONTHS. I'VE EMAILED ALL OF

299
00:12:33,719 --> 00:12:36,689
YOU OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN

300
00:12:36,689 --> 00:12:41,827
WITH THE DATA, ET CETERA. THE 

301
00:12:41,827 --> 00:12:43,929
CITY IS ALLOWING UNCHECKED 

302
00:12:43,929 --> 00:12:46,098
PROSTITUTION, HUMAN TRAFFICKING,

303
00:12:46,098 --> 00:12:48,467
AND THE RELATED VIOLENCE. IT'S 

304
00:12:48,467 --> 00:12:49,034
UNCHECKED. IT'S OBVIOUS. 

305
00:12:49,034 --> 00:12:50,169
EVERYONE HERE KNOWS ABOUT IT. 

306
00:12:50,169 --> 00:12:51,971
SPD'S OWN DATA THAT WAS SHARED 

307
00:12:51,971 --> 00:12:53,672
WITH ME RECENTLY CONFIRMED THAT 

308
00:12:53,672 --> 00:12:57,042
OVER 60% OF THE SHOOTINGS ON MY 

309
00:12:57,042 --> 00:13:01,180
BLOCK ARE DIRECTLY RELATED TO 

310
00:13:01,180 --> 00:13:04,683
PROSTITUTION. WE KNOW WHAT THE 

311
00:13:04,683 --> 00:13:08,721
PROBLEM IS. IT'S NOT AN 

312
00:13:08,721 --> 00:13:09,788
ABSTRACT PROBLEM OR AN 

313
00:13:09,788 --> 00:13:10,456
AMALGAMATION OF SUBSTANCE USE 

314
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:13,292
THAT WE SEE IN OTHER PARTS OF 

315
00:13:13,292 --> 00:13:17,396
THE CITY. THIS IS DIFFERENT. AS 

316
00:13:17,396 --> 00:13:20,432
YOU MENTIONED IN YOUR EMAIL. 

317
00:13:20,432 --> 00:13:21,033
IT'S GANG-LED, ORGANIZED, 

318
00:13:21,033 --> 00:13:22,835
VIOLENT HUMAN TRAFFICKING, AND 

319
00:13:22,835 --> 00:13:27,106
THE CITY IS TURNING THEIR EYES. 

320
00:13:27,106 --> 00:13:31,811
I LIVE THERE. I CAN'T TURN MY 

321
00:13:31,811 --> 00:13:32,878
EYES. I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE 

322
00:13:32,878 --> 00:13:33,779
STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK PLAN. IN THE

323
00:13:33,779 --> 00:13:37,650
PAST TWO WEEKS MY HOUSE WAS HIT 

324
00:13:37,650 --> 00:13:40,553
BY GUNFIRE. I HAVE A 6 WEEK OLD 

325
00:13:40,553 --> 00:13:43,556
BABY, AND IT HIT TWO FEET ABOVE 

326
00:13:43,556 --> 00:13:45,191
MY BABY'S WINDOW. A WEEK LATER,

327
00:13:45,191 --> 00:13:48,727
MY NEIGHBOR HAD A BULLET GO 

328
00:13:48,727 --> 00:13:49,461
THROUGH THEIR WINDOW INTO THEIR 

329
00:13:49,461 --> 00:13:49,728
BEDROOM. 

330
00:13:49,728 --> 00:13:50,095
>> THANK YOU. 

331
00:13:50,095 --> 00:13:54,700
>> I WANT TO KNOW WHAT THE CITY 

332
00:13:54,700 --> 00:13:56,702
WILL DO, EVEN THOUGH IT'S 

333
00:13:56,702 --> 00:13:57,503
POLITICALLY INCONVENIENT TO 

334
00:13:57,503 --> 00:13:59,038
URGENTLY SHIFT OUR POLICY, AND I

335
00:13:59,038 --> 00:14:01,040
WANT TO KNOW WHO'S GOING TO 

336
00:14:01,040 --> 00:14:02,675
ACTUALLY STEP UP TO LEAD IN OUR 

337
00:14:02,675 --> 00:14:02,875
CITY. 

338
00:14:02,875 --> 00:14:03,242
>> THANK YOU. 

339
00:14:03,242 --> 00:14:03,609
>> THANK YOU. 

340
00:14:03,609 --> 00:14:13,485
>> THANK YOU FOR THE COMMENT AND

341
00:14:13,485 --> 00:14:14,253
YOUR EMAIL. 

342
00:14:14,253 --> 00:14:16,121
>> KENDALL GREGORY TO BE 

343
00:14:16,121 --> 00:14:17,823
FOLLOWED BY DJ HOTCHKINS. 

344
00:14:17,823 --> 00:14:19,959
>> IS THIS THE CORRECT ONE? 

345
00:14:19,959 --> 00:14:21,760
>> EITHER ONE. 

346
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:25,097
>> YEAH. HI, MY NAME IS KENDALL.

347
00:14:25,097 --> 00:14:27,733
I LIVE IN THE NORTH AURORA 

348
00:14:27,733 --> 00:14:30,736
NEIGHBORHOOD, FIVE BLOCKS AWAY 

349
00:14:30,736 --> 00:14:33,939
FROM WHERE ALL THE SHOOTINGS 

350
00:14:33,939 --> 00:14:35,841
HAPPEN. YEAH. I THINK WE NEED TO

351
00:14:35,841 --> 00:14:38,777
SHIFT TOWARDS PREVENTION. THE 

352
00:14:38,777 --> 00:14:43,015
REASON WHY THESE CONFLICTS 

353
00:14:43,015 --> 00:14:44,283
HAPPEN IS BECAUSE BASICALLY 

354
00:14:44,283 --> 00:14:45,150
PIMPS AND BUSINESS OWNERS, AND 

355
00:14:45,150 --> 00:14:52,625
THEY GET INTO CONTACT WITH EACH 

356
00:14:52,625 --> 00:14:54,426
OTHER. THEY DON'T HAVE CONTACT 

357
00:14:54,426 --> 00:14:56,595
-- SO THE WAY THEY RESOLVE 

358
00:14:56,595 --> 00:15:01,100
CONFLICTS IS BULLETS. THE WAY WE

359
00:15:01,100 --> 00:15:04,036
SHIFT TOWARD PREVENTION IS BY 

360
00:15:04,036 --> 00:15:06,338
DECRIMINALIZING SEX WORK, OR BY 

361
00:15:06,338 --> 00:15:07,573
LEGALIZING IT SOME WAY. IF THEY 

362
00:15:07,573 --> 00:15:09,208
HAD LEGAL BUSINESSES THEY COULD 

363
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:19,451
LOSE, IF THEY WERE ENGAGING IN 

364
00:15:19,451 --> 00:15:23,489
THE TYPE OF HOOLIGAN NONSENSE IN

365
00:15:23,489 --> 00:15:25,257
MY NEIGHBORHOOD. THEY HAVE 

366
00:15:25,257 --> 00:15:27,860
NOTHING TO LOSE. APPROACHES LIKE

367
00:15:27,860 --> 00:15:29,328
POLICE AND BARRICADES MAY 

368
00:15:29,328 --> 00:15:30,195
RESOLVE THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY.

369
00:15:30,195 --> 00:15:32,431
I THINK BUT, YOU KNOW, EVEN THE 

370
00:15:32,431 --> 00:15:35,668
POLICE, WE HAVE TO KEEP IN MIND 

371
00:15:35,668 --> 00:15:36,735
THAT THESE ARE DRIVE-BY 

372
00:15:36,735 --> 00:15:38,804
SHOOTINGS THAT HAPPEN IN LESS 

373
00:15:38,804 --> 00:15:42,841
THAN A MINUTE. WHEN THE POLICE 

374
00:15:42,841 --> 00:15:43,609
ARRIVE, EVERYBODY'S ALREADY 

375
00:15:43,609 --> 00:15:44,777
GONE. AND THE REALITY IS THAT 

376
00:15:44,777 --> 00:15:46,478
SOMEONE COULD HAVE ALREADY 

377
00:15:46,478 --> 00:15:48,280
GOTTEN HURT. SO I'D LIKE TO 

378
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:52,151
HEAR, YOU KNOW, WHAT THE 

379
00:15:52,151 --> 00:15:53,052
PROGRESS IS TOWARDS SHIFTING 

380
00:15:53,052 --> 00:15:53,719
TOWARDS PREVENTION OF THIS. 

381
00:15:53,719 --> 00:16:03,696
THANK YOU. 

382
00:16:03,696 --> 00:16:04,797
>> THANK YOU. NEXT UP, DJ 

383
00:16:04,797 --> 00:16:09,735
HOTCHKINS. 

384
00:16:09,735 --> 00:16:12,037
>> YEAH. IT'S HOSKINS. I HAVE A

385
00:16:12,037 --> 00:16:17,042
NERVE ISSUE WITH MY RIGHT HAND, 

386
00:16:17,042 --> 00:16:19,745
AND WRITING IS NOT MY FORTE. MY 

387
00:16:19,745 --> 00:16:21,180
WIFE AND I MOVED INTO THIS 

388
00:16:21,180 --> 00:16:22,047
NEIGHBORHOOD IN 1987, AND WE'VE

389
00:16:22,047 --> 00:16:23,749
SEEN SO MANY CHANGES AND SO MANY

390
00:16:23,749 --> 00:16:26,852
OF THEM FOR THE BETTER. WHEN WE 

391
00:16:26,852 --> 00:16:29,722
FIRST MOVED IN, IT WAS AN AGING 

392
00:16:29,722 --> 00:16:31,957
POPULATION WITH ALMOST NO 

393
00:16:31,957 --> 00:16:34,660
CHILDREN ON THE STREET. NOW THE 

394
00:16:34,660 --> 00:16:37,796
HOUSES ARE FILLED WITH YOUNG 

395
00:16:37,796 --> 00:16:40,165
FAMILIES WHO ARE FIXING UP THEIR

396
00:16:40,165 --> 00:16:41,834
HOUSES. THERE'S KIDS PLAYING IN

397
00:16:41,834 --> 00:16:45,571
THE STREET. WE LOVE LIVING IN 

398
00:16:45,571 --> 00:16:46,939
THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. AND AURORA IS

399
00:16:46,939 --> 00:16:50,209
A BLOCK AND A HALF AWAY, BUT 

400
00:16:50,209 --> 00:16:51,777
WHAT WAS ON AURORA ALWAYS SEEMED

401
00:16:51,777 --> 00:16:54,480
TO STAY ON AURORA, EVEN AS CLOSE

402
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:57,383
TO ALL OF THE ISSUES, OTHER THAN

403
00:16:57,383 --> 00:16:58,917
OCCASIONAL MINOR CRIMES, YOU 

404
00:16:58,917 --> 00:17:01,420
JUST NEVER REALLY SAW ANYTHING 

405
00:17:01,420 --> 00:17:03,789
SPILLING OFF INTO THE STREETS. 

406
00:17:03,789 --> 00:17:05,691
BUT I MEAN, STARTING WITH 

407
00:17:05,691 --> 00:17:07,359
SPECIAL AROUND COVID, YOU KNOW, 

408
00:17:07,359 --> 00:17:10,062
THE PROSTITUTION AND STUFF GOT 

409
00:17:10,062 --> 00:17:13,399
REALLY BAD. BUT WE DID HAVE THE 

410
00:17:13,399 --> 00:17:14,933
GUNFIRE. AND JUST, IT'S LIKE IN

411
00:17:14,933 --> 00:17:17,870
THE LAST THREE OR FOUR YEARS 

412
00:17:17,870 --> 00:17:18,837
IT'S JUST CONSTANTLY BEING 

413
00:17:18,837 --> 00:17:20,839
WOKEN UP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE 

414
00:17:20,839 --> 00:17:22,775
NIGHT BY GUNFIRE. IT'S NOT JUST

415
00:17:22,775 --> 00:17:26,412
SINGLE SHOTS. YOU HEAR THESE -- 

416
00:17:26,412 --> 00:17:28,847
I HEARD ONE THE OTHER INSIDE AND

417
00:17:28,847 --> 00:17:31,784
FASTER THAN YOU COUNT, THERE WAS

418
00:17:31,784 --> 00:17:33,252
20 GUNSHOTS. I MEAN, THIS 

419
00:17:33,252 --> 00:17:38,057
DOESN'T STAY ON AURORA. I'M 

420
00:17:38,057 --> 00:17:39,525
NOT A GUN PERSON. BUT A 9 

421
00:17:39,525 --> 00:17:41,527
MILLIMETER BULLET CAN GO A MILE 

422
00:17:41,527 --> 00:17:45,330
OR MORE. I DID A LITTLE 

423
00:17:45,330 --> 00:17:46,932
RESEARCH. IT CAN KILL SOMEONE AT

424
00:17:46,932 --> 00:17:49,168
SEVERAL HUNDRED YARDS, AND YOU 

425
00:17:49,168 --> 00:17:50,135
HAVE JUST DOZENS OF SHOOTS GOING

426
00:17:50,135 --> 00:17:51,370
WILLY NILLY ALL OVER THE 

427
00:17:51,370 --> 00:17:52,805
NEIGHBORHOOD. IT'S JUST A 

428
00:17:52,805 --> 00:17:54,373
MATTER OF TIME. I KNOW ONE TIME 

429
00:17:54,373 --> 00:17:56,542
I HEARD SOME CLOSE GUNFIRE, AS 

430
00:17:56,542 --> 00:17:58,710
WE HAVE A BIG WINDOW IN OUR 

431
00:17:58,710 --> 00:18:01,079
BEDROOM. I JUST TRIED TO SINK 

432
00:18:01,079 --> 00:18:04,917
DOWN INTO MY BED HOPING THAT A 

433
00:18:04,917 --> 00:18:06,051
BULLET WOULDN'T COME THROUGH 

434
00:18:06,051 --> 00:18:06,718
THE WINDOW. SO SOMETHING NEEDS 

435
00:18:06,718 --> 00:18:08,086
TO BE DONE. I DON'T KNOW WHAT 

436
00:18:08,086 --> 00:18:08,954
THE ANSWERS ARE. BUT IT'S NOT 

437
00:18:08,954 --> 00:18:12,157
THE WAY IT USED TO BE. I LOVE 

438
00:18:12,157 --> 00:18:14,960
THIS NEIGHBORHOOD. I LIKE THE 

439
00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:18,464
WALKABILITY. I LIKE THE 

440
00:18:18,464 --> 00:18:20,999
NEIGHBORS. I LIKE BEING CLOSE TO

441
00:18:20,999 --> 00:18:23,302
TRANSPORTATION. IT'S THE FUN OF

442
00:18:23,302 --> 00:18:24,670
LIVING IN A CITY. BUT JUST, 

443
00:18:24,670 --> 00:18:25,337
THINGS NEED TO BE DONE. 

444
00:18:25,337 --> 00:18:31,710
>> THANK YOU. 

445
00:18:31,710 --> 00:18:32,945
>> NEXT UP HERRING GARDINER TO 

446
00:18:32,945 --> 00:18:43,322
BE FOLLOWED BY STEVE. 

447
00:18:47,059 --> 00:18:48,694
>> HELLO. I LIVE IN A 

448
00:18:48,694 --> 00:18:50,429
NEIGHBORHOOD ALONG NORTH AURORA 

449
00:18:50,429 --> 00:18:52,131
CORRIDOR AS WELL. MY SPECIFIC 

450
00:18:52,131 --> 00:18:56,335
ASK IS FOR YOU TO DIRECT MORE 

451
00:18:56,335 --> 00:18:59,104
FIFA FUNDING TO SUPPORT POLICE 

452
00:18:59,104 --> 00:19:00,005
AND ANTI-TRAFFICKING EFFORTS 

453
00:19:00,005 --> 00:19:01,540
ALONG THE NORTH AURORA CORRIDOR.

454
00:19:01,540 --> 00:19:02,241
POLICE HAVE TOLD US -- 

455
00:19:02,241 --> 00:19:05,010
>> CAN YOU PULL THE MIC CLOSER 

456
00:19:05,010 --> 00:19:05,277
TO YOU? 

457
00:19:05,277 --> 00:19:08,947
>> SORRY. PLEASE HAVE TOLD US TO

458
00:19:08,947 --> 00:19:10,382
EXPECT MORE VIOLENCE DURING THE 

459
00:19:10,382 --> 00:19:11,750
FIFA GAMES. SO AGAIN, JUST IN 

460
00:19:11,750 --> 00:19:14,052
CASE I WASN'T HEARD, I'M 

461
00:19:14,052 --> 00:19:16,388
ASKING FOR MORE FUNDING FROM 

462
00:19:16,388 --> 00:19:19,825
FIFA EFFORTS TO FUND POLICE, TO 

463
00:19:19,825 --> 00:19:21,493
FUND SAFETY EFFORTS ALONG THE 

464
00:19:21,493 --> 00:19:22,794
NORTH AURORA CORRIDOR. I KNOW 

465
00:19:22,794 --> 00:19:23,962
THAT MY NEIGHBORHOODS HAVE 

466
00:19:23,962 --> 00:19:26,098
FOCUSED ON A LOT OF THE GUN 

467
00:19:26,098 --> 00:19:27,833
VIOLENCE, AND I FULLY ECHO ALL 

468
00:19:27,833 --> 00:19:30,502
OF THAT, SO I'LL FOCUS A LITTLE

469
00:19:30,502 --> 00:19:32,738
MORE ON THE UNDERLYING ISSUE OF 

470
00:19:32,738 --> 00:19:33,672
SEX TRAFFICKING. I'M HERE ON 

471
00:19:33,672 --> 00:19:36,341
BEHALF OF MYSELF, BUT I DO 

472
00:19:36,341 --> 00:19:38,243
VOLUNTEER WITH A FANTASTIC 

473
00:19:38,243 --> 00:19:40,045
ORGANIZATION THAT HELPS 

474
00:19:40,045 --> 00:19:41,213
SURVIVORS OF CHILD SEX 

475
00:19:41,213 --> 00:19:43,248
TRAFFICKING AND PREVENTION. SO I

476
00:19:43,248 --> 00:19:44,683
KNOW A LOT OF GRIM STATISTICS, 

477
00:19:44,683 --> 00:19:46,018
AND I'M HAPPY TO SHARE THE 

478
00:19:46,018 --> 00:19:48,987
SOURCES AND THE RESOURCES WITH 

479
00:19:48,987 --> 00:19:50,556
YOU. IT'S ALL PUBLIC. BUT AS 

480
00:19:50,556 --> 00:19:51,857
YOU PROBABLY KNOW, DURING LARGE 

481
00:19:51,857 --> 00:19:54,393
SPORTING EVENTS LIKE WORLD CUP 

482
00:19:54,393 --> 00:19:57,262
GAMES, THE SUPER BOWL, SEX 

483
00:19:57,262 --> 00:19:58,397
TRAFFICKING SPIKES IN THE HOST 

484
00:19:58,397 --> 00:19:59,932
CITY, AND IT'S EXPECTED TO DO 

485
00:19:59,932 --> 00:20:01,934
SO HERE DURING THE FIFA GAMES. 

486
00:20:01,934 --> 00:20:04,002
IN FACT, THERE'S BEEN TRAINING 

487
00:20:04,002 --> 00:20:05,137
IN SOME OF THE SURROUNDING 

488
00:20:05,137 --> 00:20:08,207
CITIES FOR FIREFIGHTERS, POLICE,

489
00:20:08,207 --> 00:20:11,143
TO KNOW HOW TO SPOT IT. THE 

490
00:20:11,143 --> 00:20:13,378
WOMEN THAT YOU SEE ALONG AURORA 

491
00:20:13,378 --> 00:20:15,480
ARE YOUNG. EXPERTS SAY THAT THE 

492
00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,250
AVERAGE AGE OF GIRLS GETTING 

493
00:20:18,250 --> 00:20:20,319
PULLED INTO SEX TRAFFICKING IS 

494
00:20:20,319 --> 00:20:24,256
ONLY 14. THESE GIRLS ARE MIDDLE 

495
00:20:24,256 --> 00:20:26,224
SCHOOLERS WHEN THEY'RE PULLED 

496
00:20:26,224 --> 00:20:27,192
IN. CITY STATISTICS SHOW THAT 

497
00:20:27,192 --> 00:20:31,597
MANY ARE UNDER AGE, OR BARELY 

498
00:20:31,597 --> 00:20:37,636
JUST OF AGE, AND THEY'RE 

499
00:20:37,636 --> 00:20:38,804
WALKING ALONG AURORA, PROBABLY 

500
00:20:38,804 --> 00:20:43,375
IN STILETTOS, G STRINGS, AND 

501
00:20:43,375 --> 00:20:44,109
LITTLE ELSE. DETECTIVES SAY 

502
00:20:44,109 --> 00:20:45,344
PROSTITUTION HERE ISN'T NEW, 

503
00:20:45,344 --> 00:20:47,713
THEY KNOW THAT. BUT WHAT IS NEW 

504
00:20:47,713 --> 00:20:50,816
IS THE GIRLS KEEP GETTING 

505
00:20:50,816 --> 00:20:52,417
YOUNGER AND YOUNGER. THEY'RE 

506
00:20:52,417 --> 00:20:53,452
GETTING APPROACHED ON SOCIAL 

507
00:20:53,452 --> 00:20:55,554
MEDIA, MANY HAVE BEEN APPROACHED

508
00:20:55,554 --> 00:20:58,624
IN THE FOSTER SYSTEM. MANY HAVE 

509
00:20:58,624 --> 00:20:59,891
BEEN ABUSED BEFORE THEY WERE 

510
00:20:59,891 --> 00:21:00,192
TRAFFICKED. 

511
00:21:00,192 --> 00:21:00,525
>> THANK YOU. 

512
00:21:00,525 --> 00:21:03,829
>> I KNOW THERE'S BEEN A LOT OF

513
00:21:03,829 --> 00:21:05,831
CHANGES TO CITY LAW, LIKE 

514
00:21:05,831 --> 00:21:08,333
PULLING BACK THE LOITERING LAW. 

515
00:21:08,333 --> 00:21:11,737
THESE ARE SOME OF THE MOST 

516
00:21:11,737 --> 00:21:13,271
VULNERABLE PEOPLE IN OUR 

517
00:21:13,271 --> 00:21:14,806
COMMUNITIES AND WE'RE IGNORING 

518
00:21:14,806 --> 00:21:20,646
THEM, SO PLEASE HELP US. 

519
00:21:20,646 --> 00:21:22,981
>> THANK YOU. STEVE. 

520
00:21:22,981 --> 00:21:26,351
>> [ INAUDIBLE ] STILL IN TACT. 

521
00:21:26,351 --> 00:21:27,552
ANYONE WHO HAS ATTEMPTED TO 

522
00:21:27,552 --> 00:21:28,754
ASSAULT ME HAS NOT FACED 

523
00:21:28,754 --> 00:21:32,424
ANYTHING FROM THE CITY OF 

524
00:21:32,424 --> 00:21:36,895
SEATTLE. I REALIZE THAT WHEN I 

525
00:21:36,895 --> 00:21:45,604
WORK, I WORK IN THE I.D. PIONEER

526
00:21:45,604 --> 00:21:49,307
SQUARE, BELLTOWN. AND I'M 

527
00:21:49,307 --> 00:21:51,276
HOPELESSLY WORKING CLASS, A BIT 

528
00:21:51,276 --> 00:21:53,245
OVEREDUCATED AND I STILL DON'T 

529
00:21:53,245 --> 00:21:55,147
UNDERSTAND WHY YOU CAN'T 

530
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:57,316
ACTUALLY RUN A FUNCTIONING 

531
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:58,483
POLICE FORCE. WE HAVE NOT HAD 

532
00:21:58,483 --> 00:22:01,953
ONE FOR LONGER THAN IT TOOK TO 

533
00:22:01,953 --> 00:22:05,791
RAISE THE ARMIES FOR WORLD WAR 

534
00:22:05,791 --> 00:22:10,028
II. AS LONG AS WE FOUGHT WORLD 

535
00:22:10,028 --> 00:22:15,400
WAR II. AND YET, YOU CANNOT, OR 

536
00:22:15,400 --> 00:22:16,935
WILL NOT ACTUALLY HAVE A 

537
00:22:16,935 --> 00:22:17,669
FUNCTIONING POLICE FORCE. I 

538
00:22:17,669 --> 00:22:21,339
THINK IT'S TIME TO GET AWAY 

539
00:22:21,339 --> 00:22:23,842
FROM THE HANDS-OFF, WAIT UNTIL 

540
00:22:23,842 --> 00:22:25,944
THE GUNS COME OUT AND PEOPLE DIE

541
00:22:25,944 --> 00:22:28,280
AND THE POLICE COME OUT. I'M 

542
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,517
NOT ASKING FOR PEOPLE WITH TOMMY

543
00:22:32,517 --> 00:22:33,952
GUNS ON EVERY CORNER. THAT'S 

544
00:22:33,952 --> 00:22:36,188
NOT ACCEPTABLE IN SEATTLE. BUT I

545
00:22:36,188 --> 00:22:38,523
AM ASKING FOR A POLICE PRESENCE 

546
00:22:38,523 --> 00:22:40,625
THAT ACTUALLY MEANS SOMETHING, 

547
00:22:40,625 --> 00:22:43,562
AND RESTORE THE SQUADS THAT 

548
00:22:43,562 --> 00:22:45,697
ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING. YOU KNOW?

549
00:22:45,697 --> 00:22:47,332
AFTER THE INITIAL INCIDENT, YOU 

550
00:22:47,332 --> 00:22:51,169
HAVE TO INVESTIGATE. AND IF 

551
00:22:51,169 --> 00:22:54,039
NOBODY GOES AND INVESTIGATES 

552
00:22:54,039 --> 00:22:55,774
RAPE, ASSAULT, CAR PROWLS, 

553
00:22:55,774 --> 00:22:57,242
PROSTITUTION, GUESS WHAT? THEY 

554
00:22:57,242 --> 00:22:59,911
CONTINUE TO GROW. AND THE PEOPLE

555
00:22:59,911 --> 00:23:02,681
THAT DO THESE SORT OF 

556
00:23:02,681 --> 00:23:04,483
BUSINESSES, OR SORT OF 

557
00:23:04,483 --> 00:23:05,617
ACTIVITIES ARE WELL AWARE. THEY 

558
00:23:05,617 --> 00:23:10,188
KNOW EVEN FAR MORE THAN I, WHAT 

559
00:23:10,188 --> 00:23:11,990
THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH. I FIND 

560
00:23:11,990 --> 00:23:14,059
AMAZING THAT THERE ARE SOME 

561
00:23:14,059 --> 00:23:16,461
PEOPLE IN JAIL AND THE WORK 

562
00:23:16,461 --> 00:23:19,431
RELEASE SEEMS TO BE FULL. AND I 

563
00:23:19,431 --> 00:23:21,833
WONDER WHETHER IT'S NOT WHO YOU

564
00:23:21,833 --> 00:23:25,904
DO IT TO, NOT WHAT YOU DO, AND 

565
00:23:25,904 --> 00:23:28,173
THAT'S A DANGEROUS THOUGHT FOR 

566
00:23:28,173 --> 00:23:28,440
CITIZENS. 

567
00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:34,312
>> THANK YOU. NEXT UP WE HAVE 

568
00:23:34,312 --> 00:23:39,785
MARIO, TO BE FOLLOWED BY PETO. 

569
00:23:39,785 --> 00:23:42,921
>> MORNING, COUNCIL. I'D LIKE 

570
00:23:42,921 --> 00:23:45,157

FOREMOST, I EMPATHIZE WITH THE

00:23:47,759 --> 00:23:48,760
VERY LEGITIMATE AND WARRANTED 

573
00:23:48,760 --> 00:23:51,296
CONCERNS OF THE PEOPLE IN THE 

574
00:23:51,296 --> 00:23:55,467
NORTH AURORA AREA, WHICH HAS 

575
00:23:55,467 --> 00:23:58,703
RECENTLY BEEN IN THE NEWS. MY 

576
00:23:58,703 --> 00:24:00,205
PERSONAL EXPERIENCE IS MORE IN 

577
00:24:00,205 --> 00:24:03,742
MR. LIN'S DISTRICT AND THE CID 

578
00:24:03,742 --> 00:24:06,878
THERE, BY THE LIGHT RAIL 

579
00:24:06,878 --> 00:24:08,013
STATION. JOE'S BAR AND GRILL. I

580
00:24:08,013 --> 00:24:11,249
CAME TO THE AID OF -- I WAS JUST

581
00:24:11,249 --> 00:24:16,288
WALKING DOWN THE STREET RIGHT 

582
00:24:16,288 --> 00:24:17,189
BEFORE CHRISTMAS ON DECEMBER 23,

583
00:24:17,189 --> 00:24:19,591
2023, JUST TWO AND A HALF YEARS 

584
00:24:19,591 --> 00:24:24,696
AGO, AND I SEE A MAN GETTING 

585
00:24:24,696 --> 00:24:25,564
BEATEN ACROSS THE STREET. 

586
00:24:25,564 --> 00:24:27,165
PUMMELED. BEATEN TO A PULP. WHAT

587
00:24:27,165 --> 00:24:29,134
AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? I PULL MY 

588
00:24:29,134 --> 00:24:31,369
AIR PHONES OUT. I SEE AN 

589
00:24:31,369 --> 00:24:32,971
INDIVIDUAL WHO IS BEATING HIM, 

590
00:24:32,971 --> 00:24:35,006
HOVERING OVER HIM, AND HE 

591
00:24:35,006 --> 00:24:38,276
SCREAMED SO LOUDLY ON THE 

592
00:24:38,276 --> 00:24:44,683
SIDEWALK NEXT TO JOE'S BAR AND 

593
00:24:44,683 --> 00:24:47,219
GRILL, I WILL F-ING KILL YOU. 

594
00:24:47,219 --> 00:24:51,590
WHERE IS THE POLICE? I KNOW THIS

595
00:24:51,590 --> 00:24:55,227
IS NOT UNDER YOUR TENURE, MR. 

596
00:24:55,227 --> 00:24:57,863
LIN. WHERE IS THE POLICE PROFILE

597
00:24:57,863 --> 00:24:59,264
DURING THE HOLIDAYS? I KNOW 

598
00:24:59,264 --> 00:25:02,300
JACKSON HAS ITS OWN PROBLEMS. I 

599
00:25:02,300 --> 00:25:03,802
RAN ACROSS THE STREET. I RESCUED

600
00:25:03,802 --> 00:25:07,873
THIS INDIVIDUAL AT THE LAST 

601
00:25:07,873 --> 00:25:08,907
MINUTE. THE CRIMINAL RAN TO HIS 

602
00:25:08,907 --> 00:25:10,842
CAR, GOT A 38 SPECIAL. I CHASED 

603
00:25:10,842 --> 00:25:13,445
HIM AWAY. I THOUGHT HE RAN AWAY.

604
00:25:13,445 --> 00:25:16,314
HE GOT A 38 SPECIAL WITH HIS 

605
00:25:16,314 --> 00:25:18,049
VEHICLE WITH HOLLOW POINT 

606
00:25:18,049 --> 00:25:18,950
BULLETS IN IT. CAME BACK BEHIND 

607
00:25:18,950 --> 00:25:21,887
ME, IN FRONT OF A SEATTLE POLICE

608
00:25:21,887 --> 00:25:25,190
OFFICER, POINTED HIS GUN AT ME, 

609
00:25:25,190 --> 00:25:29,060
AND SAID NOW YOU'RE GOING TO 

610
00:25:29,060 --> 00:25:34,032
GET IT MOTHER FUCKER. ABOUT FIVE

611
00:25:34,032 --> 00:25:40,672
SECONDS LATER, HE BLEW A HOLE 

612
00:25:40,672 --> 00:25:42,474
RIGHT THROUGH MY FEMERAL ARTERY.

613
00:25:42,474 --> 00:25:44,709
I LOOK DOWN AT MY LEFT LEG, 

614
00:25:44,709 --> 00:25:46,444
DRENCHED IN BLOOD, I THOUGHT 

615
00:25:46,444 --> 00:25:50,115
I'M GOING TO DIE, THIS IS IT. 

616
00:25:50,115 --> 00:25:51,182
HE'S STANDING OVER ME. 

617
00:25:51,182 --> 00:25:51,583
>> THANK YOU. 

618
00:25:51,583 --> 00:25:53,685
>> AND THANK GOD, A SEATTLE 

619
00:25:53,685 --> 00:25:55,487
POLICE OFFICER WAS EATING DINNER

620
00:25:55,487 --> 00:25:58,790
AT FIFTH AND JACKSON AND SAW THE

621
00:25:58,790 --> 00:26:01,126
SUSPECT WALKING IN THE STREET 

622
00:26:01,126 --> 00:26:02,127
ANGRILY BEFORE HE CIRCLED AROUND

623
00:26:02,127 --> 00:26:03,662
BEHIND ME AND SHOT ME. HE 

624
00:26:03,662 --> 00:26:05,063
WITNESSED THE SHOOTING. SO WE 

625
00:26:05,063 --> 00:26:06,698
HAVE AN INDIVIDUAL WHO IS 

626
00:26:06,698 --> 00:26:09,534
GETTING BEATEN ON THE STREET. I 

627
00:26:09,534 --> 00:26:11,770
INTERVENE IN A MOMENT'S NOTICE,

628
00:26:11,770 --> 00:26:17,976
DROP OF A HAT, THAT'S IT. WHAT

HAPPENED HAPPENED. NOW I'M SHOT

639
00:26:43,868 --> 00:26:45,670

MY ARMS IN THE AIR, I'M SHOT, 

641
00:26:48,306 --> 00:26:52,010
I'M SHOT. THE POLICE CAME DOWN.

642
00:26:52,010 --> 00:26:53,478
IT'S ALL ON VIDEO. 

643
00:26:53,478 --> 00:26:56,481
>> YOUR TIME HAS EXPIRED, 

644
00:26:56,481 --> 00:26:56,848
UNFORTUNATELY. 

645
00:26:56,848 --> 00:27:01,686
>> THE POLICE OFFICER PUT A 

646
00:27:01,686 --> 00:27:02,487
TOURNIQUET ON MY LEG, SAVED MY 

647
00:27:02,487 --> 00:27:12,864

URGENTLY OUR NEIGHBORHOOD NEEDS

OR STATEMENTS. I JUST WANTED TO

SHARE THAT I HAVE LIVED THERE 

717
00:30:45,143 --> 00:30:47,345

00:30:48,780 --> 00:30:50,915
THIS LAST MONTH HAS BEEN PRETTY 

720
00:30:50,915 --> 00:30:53,151
WILD. I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE A NEW

721
00:30:53,151 --> 00:30:54,085
MAYOR THAT YOU'RE CONTENDING 

722
00:30:54,085 --> 00:30:58,523
WITH, AS WELL AS A BIG WORLD 

723
00:30:58,523 --> 00:30:59,624
EVENT, AND THAT WORLD EVENT 

724
00:30:59,624 --> 00:31:02,360
REALLY SCARES ME FOR OUR 

725
00:31:02,360 --> 00:31:04,295
NEIGHBORHOOD. IT SCARES ME FOR 

726
00:31:04,295 --> 00:31:05,430
THE VISITORS. IT SCARES ME FOR 

727
00:31:05,430 --> 00:31:06,865
THE PEOPLE THAT COMMUTE DOWN 99.

728
00:31:06,865 --> 00:31:10,101
THIS IS NOT JUST OUR 

729
00:31:10,101 --> 00:31:12,337
NEIGHBORHOOD. THIS IS CROSS 99 

730
00:31:12,337 --> 00:31:14,339
SHOOTOUTS. MY DAD SEES THESE AND

731
00:31:14,339 --> 00:31:15,440
WORRIES ABOUT MYSELF, OUR 

732
00:31:15,440 --> 00:31:17,342
FAMILY, HIS GRANDKIDS. IT USED 

733
00:31:17,342 --> 00:31:18,810
TO BE A SAFE PLACE. I WALKED 

734
00:31:18,810 --> 00:31:21,880
WITH A NEIGHBOR TO GET OUR KIDS 

735
00:31:21,880 --> 00:31:24,182
FROM SCHOOL. ON THE WAY HOME, 

736
00:31:24,182 --> 00:31:25,717
ALL THEIR FRIENDS SAY HI, 

737
00:31:25,717 --> 00:31:27,285
BECAUSE WE ALL ARE A 

738
00:31:27,285 --> 00:31:29,153
NEIGHBORHOOD OF KIDS LIVING AND 

739
00:31:29,153 --> 00:31:31,789
GOING TO SCHOOL AS A CLOSE BY 

740
00:31:31,789 --> 00:31:33,391
PLACE. WE HAVE NEIGHBORS WHO ARE

741
00:31:33,391 --> 00:31:34,792
RETIRED THAT SOMETIMES BABYSIT 

742
00:31:34,792 --> 00:31:37,929
OUR CHILDREN. IT IS REALLY 

743
00:31:37,929 --> 00:31:40,098
EVERYTHING YOU WOULD WANT IN A 

744
00:31:40,098 --> 00:31:41,199
NEIGHBORHOOD EXCEPT FOR HOW 

745
00:31:41,199 --> 00:31:42,333
AURORA IS SPILLING INTO OUR 

746
00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:45,770
NEIGHBORHOOD, WHICH IT USED TO 

747
00:31:45,770 --> 00:31:51,542
NOT. IT USED TO JUST MAINTAIN ON

748
00:31:51,542 --> 00:31:54,112
AURORA. WE DID WALKS WITH ED 

749
00:31:54,112 --> 00:31:57,515
MURRAY. A LONG TIME AGO. THEN IT

750
00:31:57,515 --> 00:31:59,150
WAS LOOKING AT CONDOMS AND 

751
00:31:59,150 --> 00:32:00,485
NEEDLES ON AURORA. NOW THOSE 

752
00:32:00,485 --> 00:32:03,321
THINGS ARE IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE.

753
00:32:03,321 --> 00:32:05,123
ANYWHERE YOU CAN PARK A CAR, YOU

754
00:32:05,123 --> 00:32:07,492
CAN FIND A CONDOM. AND YOU KNOW 

755
00:32:07,492 --> 00:32:09,127
WHEN YOU HAVE TODDLERS, THEY 

756
00:32:09,127 --> 00:32:13,798
WANT TO PICK UP EVERYTHING, AND 

757
00:32:13,798 --> 00:32:14,732
IT'S PRETTY GROSS. SO I'M HERE

758
00:32:14,732 --> 00:32:17,268
TODAY TO ASK FOR YOUR HELP. I 

759
00:32:17,268 --> 00:32:19,270
KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN STUDYING 

760
00:32:19,270 --> 00:32:21,339
A LOT OF THINGS AND SOLUTIONS. 

761
00:32:21,339 --> 00:32:22,540
WE'D JUST LIKE TO SEE THOSE 

762
00:32:22,540 --> 00:32:24,075
SOLUTIONS BE PUT IN PLACE. THANK

763
00:32:24,075 --> 00:32:26,077

00:32:28,780 --> 00:32:33,918

>> OKAY, GREAT, THANK YOU. HI, 

775
00:32:59,477 --> 00:33:00,745
I'M MADDIE PORTER. I LIVE 

776
00:33:00,745 --> 00:33:01,879
ACTUALLY RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER

777
00:33:01,879 --> 00:33:03,348
FROM LACEY. I'M ONE OF THE MOMS

778
00:33:03,348 --> 00:33:08,019
THAT WALKS TO THE BUS STOP AND 

779
00:33:08,019 --> 00:33:09,787
FINDS THE CONDOMS, YOU KNOW, 

780
00:33:09,787 --> 00:33:11,789
NEXT TO IT. ANYWAY, FOR 13 YEARS

781
00:33:11,789 --> 00:33:14,992
I'VE LIVED ALONG THE AURORA 

782
00:33:14,992 --> 00:33:16,127
CORRIDOR. THIS IS OUR HOME. AND 

783
00:33:16,127 --> 00:33:17,829
WE CANNOT BEGIN TO SPEAK THE 

784
00:33:17,829 --> 00:33:18,997
HEARTBREAK OF WATCHING THIS 

785
00:33:18,997 --> 00:33:19,964
NEIGHBORHOOD BECOME SO VIOLENT, 

786
00:33:19,964 --> 00:33:23,067
AND SO DANGEROUS AND SO 

787
00:33:23,067 --> 00:33:24,268
ABANDONED YEAR AFTER YEAR. THIS 

788
00:33:24,268 --> 00:33:33,044
MONTH THERE'S BEEN A DOZEN 

789
00:33:33,044 --> 00:33:33,845
SHOOTINGS. I MEAN, THAT'S 

790
00:33:33,845 --> 00:33:34,779
ABSOLUTELY INSANE. EVERYONE IN 

791
00:33:34,779 --> 00:33:36,080
THIS NEIGHBORHOOD KNOWS WE 

792
00:33:36,080 --> 00:33:37,281
SHOULDN'T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT 

793
00:33:37,281 --> 00:33:38,349
THESE TYPES OF THINGS. WAKING UP

794
00:33:38,349 --> 00:33:43,421
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT TO 

795
00:33:43,421 --> 00:33:44,655
HEAR GUNSHOTS OUT YOUR WINDOW, 

796
00:33:44,655 --> 00:33:46,424
GRABBING YOUR CHILDREN OUT OF 

797
00:33:46,424 --> 00:33:48,126
THEIR BED, AND THROWING THEM ON 

798
00:33:48,126 --> 00:33:49,627
THE FLOOR. THAT'S AGO I'VE HAD

799
00:33:49,627 --> 00:33:50,428
TO DO. THAT'S SOMETHING MY 

800
00:33:50,428 --> 00:33:52,163
NEIGHBORS HAVE HAD TO DO, AND WE

801
00:33:52,163 --> 00:33:54,265
ARE REALLY, REALLY TIRED OF IT. 

802
00:33:54,265 --> 00:33:56,167
I APOLOGIZE, I'M SORRY, BUT 

803
00:33:56,167 --> 00:34:01,272
IT'S JUST BEEN A REALLY LONG 

804
00:34:01,272 --> 00:34:02,573
MONTH. ANYWAY. YEARS AGO, WHEN 

805
00:34:02,573 --> 00:34:04,842
IT WAS JUST WOMEN STANDING ON 

806
00:34:04,842 --> 00:34:09,113
CORNERS, WE GOT USED TO, WE USED

807
00:34:09,113 --> 00:34:14,919
TO LOOK THE OTHER WAY. BUT NOW 

808
00:34:14,919 --> 00:34:16,454
IT'S EXPLODED INTO A SEX 

809
00:34:16,454 --> 00:34:18,256
TRAFFICKING DESTINATION. IT'S A

810
00:34:18,256 --> 00:34:20,324
SPOT PEOPLE KNOW ACROSS THE 

811
00:34:20,324 --> 00:34:21,726
COUNTRY. THEY CAN GO FROM TWO 

812
00:34:21,726 --> 00:34:23,127
BLOCKS AWAY AND EXPERIENCE IT, 

813
00:34:23,127 --> 00:34:25,496
AND WE'RE BEGGING YOU GUYS TO 

814
00:34:25,496 --> 00:34:27,432
PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. 

815
00:34:27,432 --> 00:34:28,733
EVERY NEW MAYOR, EVERY POLICE 

816
00:34:28,733 --> 00:34:29,600
CHIEF, EVERY COUNCILMEMBER, 

817
00:34:29,600 --> 00:34:30,234
EVERY TIME THERE'S SOMEBODY 

818
00:34:30,234 --> 00:34:31,969
NEW, WE ALL THINK THIS IS THE 

819
00:34:31,969 --> 00:34:34,839
PERSON. THIS IS THE ONE WHO IS 

820
00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:36,374
GOING TO CARE. THIS IS THE 

821
00:34:36,374 --> 00:34:39,143
PERSON WHO WILL CHANGE IT, AND 

822
00:34:39,143 --> 00:34:41,045
YET, AS LACEY JUST MENTIONED, 

823
00:34:41,045 --> 00:34:44,582
SHE DID THAT WALK THREE MAYORS 

824
00:34:44,582 --> 00:34:48,453
AGO, AND IT'S STILL HAPPENING. 

825
00:34:48,453 --> 00:34:49,353
SO PLEASE, ENFORCE SOAP. START 

826
00:34:49,353 --> 00:34:52,690
THERE. IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT 

827
00:34:52,690 --> 00:34:54,725
THE CHILDREN THAT'S LIVING IN 

828
00:34:54,725 --> 00:34:56,494
THESE NEIGHBORS, MAYBE YOU CAN 

829
00:34:56,494 --> 00:34:58,029
CARE ABOUT THESE GIRLS 

830
00:34:58,029 --> 00:34:59,664
THEMSELVES, AS YOU JUST HEARD, 

831
00:34:59,664 --> 00:35:02,300
SOME OF THEM ARE AS YOUNG AS 14.

832
00:35:02,300 --> 00:35:03,534
WE'RE UPSET. WE'RE SCARED, AND

833
00:35:03,534 --> 00:35:06,103
WE JUST WANT TO LIVE IN THE SAME

834
00:35:06,103 --> 00:35:07,405
NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WE KNOW IT 

835
00:35:07,405 --> 00:35:09,273
USED TO BE. 

836
00:35:09,273 --> 00:35:11,275
>> THANK YOU, MADDIE. 

837
00:35:11,275 --> 00:35:14,445
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH. 

838
00:35:14,445 --> 00:35:24,155
>> NEXT UP, WE HAVE HOWARD GAIL.

839
00:35:24,288 --> 00:35:25,223
>> GOOD MORNING. TODAY'S 

840
00:35:25,223 --> 00:35:26,457
PRESENTATION FROM THE SEATTLE 

841
00:35:26,457 --> 00:35:29,393
OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT 

842
00:35:29,393 --> 00:35:30,328
ON SAFETY PREPARATIONS FOR THE 

843
00:35:30,328 --> 00:35:32,029
WORLD CUP EVENTS, WHICH START IN

844
00:35:32,029 --> 00:35:33,564
JUST 16 DAYS, FORGETS ABOUT THE 

845
00:35:33,564 --> 00:35:35,600
SAFETY OF THOSE WHO ARE BOTH THE

846
00:35:35,600 --> 00:35:39,470
LARGEST GROUP AND THOSE WHO FACE

847
00:35:39,470 --> 00:35:41,439
THE MOST LIKELY LIFE ALTERING 

848
00:35:41,439 --> 00:35:42,073
THREATS. IMMIGRANTS, PEOPLE 

849
00:35:42,073 --> 00:35:42,874
MISTAKEN FOR IMMIGRANTS, THE 

850
00:35:42,874 --> 00:35:44,675
FAMILY OF THOSE PEOPLE, AND 

851
00:35:44,675 --> 00:35:46,611
ANYONE WHO TRIES TO PROTECT 

852
00:35:46,611 --> 00:35:48,079
THOSE PEOPLE. WE ARE TALKING 

853
00:35:48,079 --> 00:35:51,449
ABOUT HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF 

854
00:35:51,449 --> 00:35:52,717
PEOPLE. JUST SEVEN DAYS AGO, 

855
00:35:52,717 --> 00:35:54,385
HOMELAND SECURITY SECRETARY 

856
00:35:54,385 --> 00:35:55,920
MULLINS SAID I.C.E. WILL QUOTE 

857
00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:58,055
BE OUT THERE EVERY DAY. FOUR 

858
00:35:58,055 --> 00:36:00,358
DAYS AGO, THE SEATTLE TIMES 

859
00:36:00,358 --> 00:36:02,159
PUBLISHED AN ARTICLE TITLED 

860
00:36:02,159 --> 00:36:04,061
SEATTLE IMMIGRANT SOCCER FANS 

861
00:36:04,061 --> 00:36:05,062
WORKERS FACE I.C.E. FEARS AS 

862
00:36:05,062 --> 00:36:07,465
WORLD CUP NEARS. JUST A FEW 

863
00:36:07,465 --> 00:36:11,502
QUOTES FROM THE ARTICLE. WORKING

864
00:36:11,502 --> 00:36:12,637
WASHINGTON HAS BEEN QUOTE 

865
00:36:12,637 --> 00:36:15,506
TALKING TO HOSPITALITY, AND GAME

866
00:36:15,506 --> 00:36:16,607
WORKERS. SOME KNOW OF BACK OF 

867
00:36:16,607 --> 00:36:19,143
HOUSE STAFF WHO PLAN NOT TO WORK

868
00:36:19,143 --> 00:36:20,545
DURING THE GAMES. THESE ARE 

869
00:36:20,545 --> 00:36:23,181
WORKERS -- I AM CONCERNED ABOUT 

870
00:36:23,181 --> 00:36:24,415
BEING ABLE TO PAY RENT. I'M 

871
00:36:24,415 --> 00:36:26,217
CONCERNED ABOUT BEING ABLE TO 

872
00:36:26,217 --> 00:36:28,920
PUT FOOD ON THE TABLE, BUT I'M 

873
00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:29,954
EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE 

874
00:36:29,954 --> 00:36:32,456
RISK DURING THE WORLD CUP HERE. 

875
00:36:32,456 --> 00:36:33,758
EVEN CELEBRATION ZONES COULD BE 

876
00:36:33,758 --> 00:36:36,460
SEEN AS TOO RISKY TO ATTEND. THE

877
00:36:36,460 --> 00:36:40,097
SEATTLE COUNCIL HAS IT OVER 18 

878
00:36:40,097 --> 00:36:43,634
MONTHS SINCE TRUMP WAS ELECTED 

879
00:36:43,634 --> 00:36:47,138
TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO MORE 

880
00:36:47,138 --> 00:36:49,273
ACCURATELY PROTECT OUR IMMIGRANT

881
00:36:49,273 --> 00:36:50,641
NEIGHBORS. YET IN ALL THIS TIME,

882
00:36:50,641 --> 00:36:51,809
YOU'VE FAILED TO LEGISLATE EVEN

883
00:36:51,809 --> 00:36:53,945
THE BASIC PROTECTIONS PUT IN 

884
00:36:53,945 --> 00:36:56,647
PLACE IN OTHER CITIES, AS FOR 

885
00:36:56,647 --> 00:37:00,184
EXAMPLE, BOSTON DID MONTHS AGO. 

886
00:37:00,184 --> 00:37:02,987
TODAY, REFLECTS THE CONSISTENT 

887
00:37:02,987 --> 00:37:04,055
PATTERN, ONE WE WITNESSED AT 

888
00:37:04,055 --> 00:37:08,259
LAST PUBLIC SAFETY MEETING TWO 

889
00:37:08,259 --> 00:37:10,094
WEEKS AGO, WHEN THE COUNCIL 

890
00:37:10,094 --> 00:37:12,663
PLATFORM, THE VICTIMIZERS AND 

891
00:37:12,663 --> 00:37:14,365
DENIED THE VICTIMS OF LAST 

892
00:37:14,365 --> 00:37:15,066
YEAR'S CAL ANDERSON VOICE. WE 

893
00:37:15,066 --> 00:37:18,603
ONLY GET TO HEAR FROM THOSE WHO 

894
00:37:18,603 --> 00:37:21,505
WIELD AND BENEFIT FROM POWER. WE

895
00:37:21,505 --> 00:37:24,742
NEVER GET TO HEAR FROM THOSE WHO

896
00:37:24,742 --> 00:37:27,345
SUFFER THE LIFE CHANGING IMPACTS

897
00:37:27,345 --> 00:37:31,515
OF THAT POWER. 

898
00:37:31,515 --> 00:37:36,420
>> THANK YOU. NEXT UP WE HAVE 

899
00:37:36,420 --> 00:37:44,495
TANICER. REMAINDER TO PRESS STAR

900
00:37:44,495 --> 00:37:55,039
SIX. ALL RIGHT. THERE HE IS. GO 

901
00:37:56,874 --> 00:37:59,076
AHEAD. 

902
00:37:59,076 --> 00:38:00,911
>> CAN YOU HEAR ME? OKAY. THANK 

903
00:38:00,911 --> 00:38:03,981
YOU FOR HAVING ME AND TAKING THE

904
00:38:03,981 --> 00:38:06,350
TIME HERE. MY NAME IS TAD. I'M A

905
00:38:06,350 --> 00:38:09,787
RESIDENT OF GREENWOOD, ADJACENT 

906
00:38:09,787 --> 00:38:12,123
TO AURORA. AS WE KNOW, WE'VE 

907
00:38:12,123 --> 00:38:14,191
ALREADY HEARD NORTH AURORA, 

908
00:38:14,191 --> 00:38:16,861
ILLEGAL PROSTITUTION AND HUMAN 

909
00:38:16,861 --> 00:38:17,862
TRAFFICKING IS AN INCREDIBLY 

910
00:38:17,862 --> 00:38:23,601
LUCRATIVE, WELL ORGANIZED 

911
00:38:23,601 --> 00:38:25,336
ENTERPRISE THAT THE CITY HAS 

912
00:38:25,336 --> 00:38:27,972
FAILED TO POLICE IN YEARS. FOR 

913
00:38:27,972 --> 00:38:29,206
CHANGES LIKE REINSTATING THE 

914
00:38:29,206 --> 00:38:30,474
LOITERING LAW, AND ENFORCING 

915
00:38:30,474 --> 00:38:32,209
SOAP, THESE CHANGES WILL TAKE 

916
00:38:32,209 --> 00:38:35,413
LONGER THAN OVERNIGHT. AND GIVEN

917
00:38:35,413 --> 00:38:36,681
THE FORECASTED INCREASE IN 

918
00:38:36,681 --> 00:38:38,883
PROSTITUTION, AND DEMAND TIED TO

919
00:38:38,883 --> 00:38:41,118
THE WORLD CUP, OUR NEIGHBORS AND

920
00:38:41,118 --> 00:38:42,486
COMMUNITY DESPERATELY NEED 

921
00:38:42,486 --> 00:38:44,088
CHANGE OVERNIGHT. I LIVE NEAR 

922
00:38:44,088 --> 00:38:46,190
101st AND LYNDEN. TWO YEARS AGO,

923
00:38:46,190 --> 00:38:48,893
IT WAS ABSOLUTELY A LIVING HELL.

924
00:38:48,893 --> 00:38:53,964
MY PARTNER AND I WERE AT THE 

925
00:38:53,964 --> 00:38:55,833
NEXUS OF THE TURF WARS. OUR 

926
00:38:55,833 --> 00:38:58,102
NEWLY OBTAINED HOME, WE WILL AND

927
00:38:58,102 --> 00:39:04,842
STILL ARE FINANCIALLY TRAPPED BY

928
00:39:04,842 --> 00:39:08,179
OUR NEW MORTGAGE IN A NEW GANG 

929
00:39:08,179 --> 00:39:10,247
ZONE. I NO LONGER SEE WOMEN 

930
00:39:10,247 --> 00:39:14,885
LOITERING AT THE END OF 101st. I

931
00:39:14,885 --> 00:39:17,054
NO LONGER SEE SHOOTINGS COMING 

932
00:39:17,054 --> 00:39:18,489
UP 101st. SDOT HAD PLANS TO 

933
00:39:18,489 --> 00:39:20,224
CLOSE MORE STREETS, AND WE ARE 

934
00:39:20,224 --> 00:39:22,793
ASKING THAT THEY ARE DIRECTED TO

935
00:39:22,793 --> 00:39:25,129
ACT ON THOSE PLANS IMMEDIATELY. 

936
00:39:25,129 --> 00:39:26,430
OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS ASKING FOR 

937
00:39:26,430 --> 00:39:28,299
MORE BARRIERS BETWEEN AURORA AND

938
00:39:28,299 --> 00:39:30,468
THE ADJACENT NEIGHBORHOODS TO 

939
00:39:30,468 --> 00:39:34,572
CUT OFF THE EASE OF JOHN AND 

940
00:39:34,572 --> 00:39:36,440
PIMP MOVEMENT AND DISRUPT THE 

941
00:39:36,440 --> 00:39:37,608
PROSTITUTION INDUSTRY. RUN AND 

942
00:39:37,608 --> 00:39:39,410
GUNS NEED TO STAY OUT, WHERE 

943
00:39:39,410 --> 00:39:41,545
THERE ARE FOR MORE CHILDREN TO 

944
00:39:41,545 --> 00:39:44,315
CATCH BULLETS. THE EVIDENCE IS 

945
00:39:44,315 --> 00:39:46,484
THERE. THE COST, AND VEHICULAR 

946
00:39:46,484 --> 00:39:48,152
TRAVELING INCONVENIENCES OF THE 

947
00:39:48,152 --> 00:39:49,253
BARRIERS ARE FAR OUTWEIGHED BY 

948
00:39:49,253 --> 00:39:56,594
THE SAFETY FACTOR TO OUR 

949
00:39:56,594 --> 00:39:57,795
NEIGHBORHOOD. TO ME, IT'S 

950
00:39:57,795 --> 00:40:01,766
CRYSTAL CLEAR, THE POLICE STOP 

951
00:40:01,766 --> 00:40:05,202
FIGHTING TURF WARS ONCE IT IS 

952
00:40:05,202 --> 00:40:08,072
RENDERED USELESS. 

953
00:40:08,072 --> 00:40:13,677
>> NEXT UP, WE HAVE DONNA HILL 

954
00:40:13,677 --> 00:40:21,552
WAKA. DONNA. YOU CAN PRESS STAR 

955
00:40:21,552 --> 00:40:32,096
SIX AND THEN GET STARTED. SOUNDS

956
00:40:38,969 --> 00:40:40,070
LIKE WE'LL MOVE ONTO THE NEXT 

957
00:40:40,070 --> 00:40:44,642
PERSON AND COME BACK TO DONNA AT

958
00:40:44,642 --> 00:40:46,443
THE END. THE NEXT IS DAVID 

959
00:40:46,443 --> 00:40:56,520
HAYNES. DAVID, GO AHEAD. 

960
00:40:56,520 --> 00:41:00,157
>> IT'S OBVIOUS THAT WE NEED A 

961
00:41:00,157 --> 00:41:02,460
NEW POLICE CHIEF. AND ALL HIS 

962
00:41:02,460 --> 00:41:04,695
BROTHERS AND SISTERS, EXECUTIVE 

963
00:41:04,695 --> 00:41:06,197
COMMAND THAT ARE LITERALLY 

964
00:41:06,197 --> 00:41:06,897
RUNNING INTERFERENCE AND 

965
00:41:06,897 --> 00:41:08,632
SYMPATHIZING WITH BLACK DRUG 

966
00:41:08,632 --> 00:41:11,669
PUSHING PIMPS. THE REAL CRIMPS 

967
00:41:11,669 --> 00:41:15,673
OF PROGRESS. IT'S PROGRESS IN A

968
00:41:15,673 --> 00:41:19,977
SOCIETAL MESS. IT'S LIKE THE 

969
00:41:19,977 --> 00:41:20,678
PEDOPHILE MAYOR, ED MURRAY, HE 

970
00:41:20,678 --> 00:41:22,213
PROMOTED KATHLEEN O'TOOLE. AND 

971
00:41:22,213 --> 00:41:25,850
SHE IS THE ONE WHO DECIDED THE 

972
00:41:25,850 --> 00:41:27,451
FATE WHO GOT HIRED AND 

973
00:41:27,451 --> 00:41:29,787
NOMINATED, WHICH WAS SHON 

974
00:41:29,787 --> 00:41:31,922
BARNES, WHO HAS A JIM CROW LAW 

975
00:41:31,922 --> 00:41:35,626
STYLE AGENDA, AND A MISEDUCATION

976
00:41:35,626 --> 00:41:38,195
OF HATE. HE IS TOTALLY 

977
00:41:38,195 --> 00:41:39,363
UNTRUSTWORTHY WHEN IT COMES TO 

978
00:41:39,363 --> 00:41:41,098
COMBATING ACTUAL CLAIM, BUT 

979
00:41:41,098 --> 00:41:43,601
HE'LL GET EXTRA MONEY TO TAKE A

980
00:41:43,601 --> 00:41:45,236
ADVISEMENT CLASS ON HOW TO ACT 

981
00:41:45,236 --> 00:41:46,837
ARTICULATE AND CONFIDENCE AFTER 

982
00:41:46,837 --> 00:41:50,774
A CRIME HAS TAKEN PLACE. WHEN IT

983
00:41:50,774 --> 00:41:53,510
COMES TO PROACTIVELY COMBATING 

984
00:41:53,510 --> 00:41:55,446
THE CRIMINALS WHO ARE CONDUCTING

985
00:41:55,446 --> 00:41:58,082
UNCIVIL WAR ON THE COMMUNITY, HE

986
00:41:58,082 --> 00:41:59,550
IS LITERALLY ON PURPOSE, 

987
00:41:59,550 --> 00:42:00,417
MISMANAGING HIS CRIME FIGHTING 

988
00:42:00,417 --> 00:42:03,053
TOOL, AND ALL HE'S COMING UP 

989
00:42:03,053 --> 00:42:04,889
WITH A POLITICAL EXCUSE WHY THEY

990
00:42:04,889 --> 00:42:06,123
DON'T HAVE ENOUGH TIME FOR 

991
00:42:06,123 --> 00:42:07,691
CRIME FIGHTING, BUT THEY HAVE 

992
00:42:07,691 --> 00:42:11,395
FULL STAFF TO THE OVERTIME 

993
00:42:11,395 --> 00:42:14,932
EVENTS AT WORLD CUP AND OTHER 

994
00:42:14,932 --> 00:42:16,367
LAW-ABIDING EVENTS. YET OEM, THE

995
00:42:16,367 --> 00:42:17,601
UNIFIED COMMAND, THEY'RE GOING 

996
00:42:17,601 --> 00:42:20,037
TO PUT NINE HOURS A DAY, PEOPLE 

997
00:42:20,037 --> 00:42:22,640
MAKING A SIX FIGURE SALARY TO DO

998
00:42:22,640 --> 00:42:24,041
A LOT OF INTERACTION, YET 

999
00:42:24,041 --> 00:42:27,077
THEY'RE GOING TO DO NINE TO 12 

1000
00:42:27,077 --> 00:42:28,979
HOURS, AND YET THERE'S NO 

1001
00:42:28,979 --> 00:42:30,414
CREDIBLE THREAT WITH EGYPT AND 

1002
00:42:30,414 --> 00:42:31,782
IRAN COMING TO TOWN. SO WE'RE 

1003
00:42:31,782 --> 00:42:34,518
NOT EVEN MAKING A CONVERTED 

1004
00:42:34,518 --> 00:42:36,687
EFFORT TO COMBAT THE CRIME 

1005
00:42:36,687 --> 00:42:37,521
THAT'S POLARIZING THE 

1006
00:42:37,521 --> 00:42:38,556
COMMUNITY. I WENT TO NORTHWEST 

1007
00:42:38,556 --> 00:42:46,864
FOLK LIFE. I CAME OUT OF THE 

1008
00:42:46,864 --> 00:42:48,599
WEST TUNNEL, ALL OF THESE [ 

1009
00:42:48,599 --> 00:42:51,101
INAUDIBLE ] ALL THE WAY -- ALL 

1010
00:42:51,101 --> 00:42:54,071
THESE CRIMINALS HAVE BEEN THERE 

1011
00:42:54,071 --> 00:42:58,309
ALL THESE YEARS. YOU HAVE TO PUT

1012
00:42:58,309 --> 00:43:04,848
A WARNING LABEL TO ALL THE 

1013
00:43:04,848 --> 00:43:05,115
TOURISTS. 

1014
00:43:05,115 --> 00:43:05,816
>> THANK YOU. NEXT, WE HAVE TINA

1015
00:43:05,816 --> 00:43:13,090
VIRELI. 

1016
00:43:13,090 --> 00:43:17,194
>> HI, CITY COUNCIL. MY NAME IS 

1017
00:43:17,194 --> 00:43:19,496
TINA. I WANT TO REITERATE THE 

1018
00:43:19,496 --> 00:43:22,800
THOUGHTS OF ALL MY NEIGHBORS WHO

1019
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:25,069
HAVE SPOKEN BEFORE ME. I'M ALSO

1020
00:43:25,069 --> 00:43:26,170
IN THE GREENWOOD NEIGHBORHOOD. A

1021
00:43:26,170 --> 00:43:27,605
RESIDENT NEAR THE NORTH AURORA 

1022
00:43:27,605 --> 00:43:29,106
CORRIDOR. I'M ONE OF MANY 

1023
00:43:29,106 --> 00:43:31,942
NEIGHBORS WHO HAVE DEALT WITH 

1024
00:43:31,942 --> 00:43:33,277
THE NEARLY NIGHTLY GUNFIRE. 

1025
00:43:33,277 --> 00:43:34,745
MYSELF AND MY PARTNER HAD, WHO 

1026
00:43:34,745 --> 00:43:38,282
JUST SPOKE, HAVE EXPERIENCED THE

1027
00:43:38,282 --> 00:43:41,051
HORRORS OF THE LUCRATIVE SEX 

1028
00:43:41,051 --> 00:43:41,919
TRAFFICKING TRADE, PIMPS 

1029
00:43:41,919 --> 00:43:43,320
SHOOTING AT EACH OTHER, CONDOMS 

1030
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:46,290
ON THE GROUND, THE LIKE. WE HAVE

1031
00:43:46,290 --> 00:43:48,726
SEEN AN UPTICK IN GUNFIRE THAT 

1032
00:43:48,726 --> 00:43:50,361
HAS A NEXUS OF PROSTITUTION, 

1033
00:43:50,361 --> 00:43:55,299
THAT WAS STATED BY THE CITY OF 

1034
00:43:55,299 --> 00:43:55,799
SEATTLE. THE NEXUS OF 

1035
00:43:55,799 --> 00:43:58,002
PROSTITUTION PIECE, AND WE ARE 

1036
00:43:58,002 --> 00:43:59,436
EXPECTING MORE SEX TRAFFICKING, 

1037
00:43:59,436 --> 00:44:04,208
DUE TO FIFA ON THE AURORA 

1038
00:44:04,208 --> 00:44:05,042
CORRIDOR. I'M CALLING ON THE 

1039
00:44:05,042 --> 00:44:07,678
CITY TO ENFORCE THE SOAP LAW 

1040
00:44:07,678 --> 00:44:11,181
THAT WE WORKED SO HARD TO PASS 

1041
00:44:11,181 --> 00:44:12,916
TWO YEARS AGO. OUR CITY ERICA 

1042
00:44:12,916 --> 00:44:15,452
EVANS HAS THE POWER TO ENFORCE 

1043
00:44:15,452 --> 00:44:19,490
THIS SOAP LAW. IN ADDITION, 

1044
00:44:19,490 --> 00:44:23,227
RESIDENTS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD 

1045
00:44:23,227 --> 00:44:24,561
HAVE SHUT DOWN 100 AGAIN, 97th, 

1046
00:44:24,561 --> 00:44:26,930
AND 98th TO AURORA TO TRAFFIC. 

1047
00:44:26,930 --> 00:44:28,499
AND THIS IS AN INCREDIBLE 

1048
00:44:28,499 --> 00:44:30,567
IMPROVEMENT TO WHAT WE'VE BEEN 

1049
00:44:30,567 --> 00:44:32,202
EXPERIENCING, AND I'M CALLING 

1050
00:44:32,202 --> 00:44:36,173
ON CITY COUNCIL TO MAKE THESE 

1051
00:44:36,173 --> 00:44:36,940
BARRIERS PERMANENT. WE HAVE SEEN

1052
00:44:36,940 --> 00:44:41,278
PEOPLE DESTROYING THEM, AND THE 

1053
00:44:41,278 --> 00:44:43,947
INCONVENIENCES THAT IT'S 

1054
00:44:43,947 --> 00:44:44,715
CAUSED. THIS WAS PREVIOUSLY PUT 

1055
00:44:44,715 --> 00:44:46,684
ON BY SDOT HAD PREVIOUSLY HAD A 

1056
00:44:46,684 --> 00:44:49,319
PLAN TO CLOSE OFF THOSE STREETS.

1057
00:44:49,319 --> 00:44:51,055
AND I'M CALLING ON CITY COUNCIL

1058
00:44:51,055 --> 00:44:52,356
TO MAKE THOSE STREETS PERMANENT,

00:44:52,356 --> 00:44:55,693
AS WELL AS ENFORCE THE SOAP LAW.

1060
00:44:55,693 --> 00:44:58,562
WE NEED YOUR HELP TO PROTECT 

1061
00:44:58,562 --> 00:44:59,096
TAX-PAYING RESIDENTS AND 

1062
00:44:59,096 --> 00:45:01,365
VISITORS FOR THE FIFA WORLD CUP.

00:45:01,365 --> 00:45:06,270
THANK YOU.

DETECTIVES. IT'S NOT JUST SWORN

1078
00:46:17,641 --> 00:46:19,343
OFFICERS ON THE STREET, BUT 

1079
00:46:19,343 --> 00:46:20,677
BUILDING THOSE NUMBERS ALLOWS 

1080
00:46:20,677 --> 00:46:23,113
THE DETECTIVES -- WE KNOW THE 

1081
00:46:23,113 --> 00:46:23,981

00:46:25,949 --> 00:46:28,418
BEING PUSHED AROUND. THESE ARE 

1084

1086
00:46:32,856 --> 00:46:35,159
THE INTENT TO WORK IT. SO VERY 

1087
00:46:35,159 --> 00:46:35,993

TECHNOLOGY, THE CCTV AND ALSO 

1091
00:46:42,499 --> 00:46:43,667
THE REALTIME CRIME CENTER, 

1092
00:46:43,667 --> 00:46:46,136

1093
00:46:46,136 --> 00:46:48,205

1096
00:46:53,544 --> 00:46:56,346
NEED CRIME PREVENTION THROUGH 

1097
00:46:56,346 --> 00:46:56,980
ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN. WHAT'S 

1098
00:46:56,980 --> 00:46:59,082
HAPPENED WITH SDOT IS AN EXAMPLE

1099
00:46:59,082 --> 00:47:00,117
OF THAT, BUT WE NEED THE 

1100
00:47:00,117 --> 00:47:01,818
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE COUNTY AND

TRANSIT CORRIDOR, FOR WHAT COMES

1105
00:47:12,229 --> 00:47:13,730
IN, AND ENDS UP ON AURORA. BUT 

1106
00:47:13,730 --> 00:47:16,600
AT THE END OF THE DAY, THIS IS 

1107
00:47:16,600 --> 00:47:17,768
ALL REALLY IMPORTANT WITH FIFA, 

1108
00:47:17,768 --> 00:47:20,838
BUT AT THE END OF THE DAY, THOSE

1109
00:47:20,838 --> 00:47:22,139
POINTS I MADE, WE NEED 

1110
00:47:22,139 --> 00:47:24,174
LEADERSHIP IN THE CITY TO TAKE 

1111
00:47:24,174 --> 00:47:25,509
ACTION, AND THAT'S CLEAR. AND I

1112
00:47:25,509 --> 00:47:29,546
JUST WANT TO ADD ONE FINAL NOTE,

1113
00:47:29,546 --> 00:47:32,583
BECAUSE YESTERDAY WAS MEMORIAL 

1114
00:47:32,583 --> 00:47:34,218

1115
00:47:34,218 --> 00:47:36,053

1117
00:47:41,158 --> 00:47:44,228

1118
00:47:44,228 --> 00:47:47,764

VEHICLE BORNE IEDs AND THE LIKE.

1123
00:48:00,043 --> 00:48:01,812
IT'S ONE THING WHEN IT'S 

1124
00:48:01,812 --> 00:48:02,813
THERE, BUT THE FAMILIES, THE 

1125
00:48:02,813 --> 00:48:05,515
NEIGHBORS IN AURORA THAT HAVE TO

1126
00:48:05,515 --> 00:48:08,986
DEAL WITH GUNFIRE, THAT'S NOT 

1127
00:48:08,986 --> 00:48:11,154
RIGHT. AND THAT GOES TO MY FIRST

1128
00:48:11,154 --> 00:48:14,625
SENTENCE. IT'S NOT RIGHT, AND 

1129
00:48:14,625 --> 00:48:16,159

1326
00:56:36,126 --> 00:56:38,128

TIMES A DAY CONFERENCE CALLS AND

1331
00:56:49,205 --> 00:56:55,011
THE USE OF MS TEAMS CHANNEL TO 

1332
00:56:55,011 --> 00:56:57,814
SHARE INFORMATION ON NON-GAME 

1333
00:56:57,814 --> 00:56:59,949
DAYS. WE'LL BE WORKING WITH OUR

1334
00:56:59,949 --> 00:57:01,518

1335
00:57:01,518 --> 00:57:04,154

1336
00:57:04,154 --> 00:57:05,355
THEY'RE HEARING. WE CAN THEN, 

1337
00:57:05,355 --> 00:57:06,856
OF COURSE, ACTIVATED OEC SHOULD 

1338
00:57:06,856 --> 00:57:08,291
THAT BECOME NECESSARY. SO ALL OF

1339
00:57:08,291 --> 00:57:09,759
THE DAYS BETWEEN JUNE 15 AND 

1340
00:57:09,759 --> 00:57:11,895

1341
00:57:11,895 --> 00:57:13,396
WE WILL HOST THOSE CONFERENCE 

1342
00:57:13,396 --> 00:57:15,965

EOC AT A MOMENT'S NOTICE, IN 

1345
00:57:21,037 --> 00:57:23,072
CASE OF DISASTER ELSEWHERE. 

1346
00:57:23,072 --> 00:57:24,340
THAT'S IMPORTANT, BECAUSE THAT 

1347
00:57:24,340 --> 00:57:28,611
IS THE FUNCTION OF THE EOC, AND 

1348
00:57:28,611 --> 00:57:30,847
THAT WILL TAKE PRECEDENCE. ALSO,

1349
00:57:30,847 --> 00:57:34,050
AS I MENTIONED, THE EOC WILL 

1350
00:57:34,050 --> 00:57:35,118
ACTIVATE FOR THE PRIDE PARADE, 

1351
00:57:35,118 --> 00:57:39,556
WHICH IS THAT SAME WEEKEND OF 

1352
00:57:39,556 --> 00:57:42,692
THAT ONE FIFA GAME. ALL RIGHT. 

1353
00:57:42,692 --> 00:57:43,993
SO BEFORE I PIVOT TO THE BIRTH 

1354
00:57:43,993 --> 00:57:47,430

1355

1356
00:57:49,966 --> 00:57:50,633

00:57:52,869 --> 00:57:54,070

MANAGEMENT AND THE EOC GETS 

1375
00:58:32,408 --> 00:58:33,009

1376
00:58:33,009 --> 00:58:34,177
OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL THE 

1377
00:58:34,177 --> 00:58:35,111

00:58:35,111 --> 00:58:38,214

1381
00:58:43,553 --> 00:58:44,888

1386
00:58:49,759 --> 00:58:53,630

AND WHAT WE CAN EXPECT. 

1391
00:59:02,572 --> 00:59:03,473
>> OKAY. SO THERE WILL BE -- 

1392
00:59:03,473 --> 00:59:05,575
YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT WHO WILL 

1393
00:59:05,575 --> 00:59:09,612
BE OUT IN THE FIELD, WHO WILL BE

1394
00:59:09,612 --> 00:59:12,048
OUTSIDE, NOT IN THE EOC DURING 

1395
00:59:12,048 --> 00:59:12,248
FIFA? 

1396
00:59:12,248 --> 00:59:13,683
>> CORRECT. AND IF SOMETHING 

1397
00:59:13,683 --> 00:59:15,952

1398
00:59:15,952 --> 00:59:18,588
GET, YOU KNOW, WHAT RESPONSE 

1399
00:59:18,588 --> 00:59:20,890
WILL WE SEE? WHAT IS BEING 

1400
00:59:20,890 --> 00:59:23,793
PLANNED FOR? AND WHAT DO WE PLAN

1401
00:59:23,793 --> 00:59:26,896
FOR ON THE PROPHYLACTIC SIDE OF 

1402
00:59:26,896 --> 00:59:30,633
THINGS, ON THE GROUND, AS YOU'RE

1403
00:59:30,633 --> 00:59:30,867
SAYING? 

1404
00:59:30,867 --> 00:59:32,802
>> SO FIFA IS RESPONSIBLE, AND 

1405
00:59:32,802 --> 00:59:34,103
LUMEN FIELD IS RESPONSIBLE FOR 

1406
00:59:34,103 --> 00:59:37,373
SAFETY AND SECURITY IN THE 

1407
00:59:37,373 --> 00:59:41,978
STADIUM. OUTSIDE OF THAT, THERE 

1408
00:59:41,978 --> 00:59:42,612
WILL BE ADDITIONAL POLICE 

1409
00:59:42,612 --> 00:59:43,813
OFFICERS AND FIREFIGHTERS AND 

1410
00:59:43,813 --> 00:59:46,115
CORRIDORS SET UP SO THAT 

1411
00:59:46,115 --> 00:59:50,119
EMERGENCY VEHICLES CAN QUICKLY 

1412
00:59:50,119 --> 00:59:51,688
GET IN AND OUT. WE ALSO HAVE 

1413
00:59:51,688 --> 00:59:53,523
BLOCKED OFF STREETS AROUND THE 

1414
00:59:53,523 --> 00:59:56,326
STADIUM, SO IT'S CALLED THE 

1415
00:59:56,326 --> 00:59:58,828
LAST MILE. SO CARS WILL NOT BE 

1416
00:59:58,828 --> 01:00:03,766
ALLOWED TO GO CLOSER THAN A MILE

1417
01:00:03,766 --> 01:00:04,601
TO THE STADIUM. STREETS WILL BE 

1418
01:00:04,601 --> 01:00:08,338
BLOCKED OFF, I BELIEVE STARTING 

1419
01:00:08,338 --> 01:00:10,673
VERY EARLY IN THE MORNING. AND 

1420
01:00:10,673 --> 01:00:15,612
THERE WILL BE MORE POLICE AND 

1421
01:00:15,612 --> 01:00:17,213
FIRE STAFF OUTSIDE. SO PEOPLE 

1422
01:00:17,213 --> 01:00:18,781
WILL HAVE TO WALK. ALSO, NONE OF

1423
01:00:18,781 --> 01:00:19,983
THE PARKING STRUCTURES ARE GOING

1424
01:00:19,983 --> 01:00:21,417
TO BE USED. SO PEOPLE WILL HAVE 

1425
01:00:21,417 --> 01:00:25,755
TO PARK OUTSIDE OF THAT ZONE, 

1426
01:00:25,755 --> 01:00:27,523
AND WALK IN, AGAIN, TO KEEP 

1427
01:00:27,523 --> 01:00:29,125
VEHICLES FROM INTERACTING WITH 

1428
01:00:29,125 --> 01:00:31,094
PEOPLE, OR PEOPLE ABLE TO GET 

1429
01:00:31,094 --> 01:00:34,731
SOMETHING CLOSER TO THE STADIUM,

1430
01:00:34,731 --> 01:00:37,467
OR WHERE PEOPLE ARE OUTSIDE. 

1431
01:00:37,467 --> 01:00:41,070
WE'VE ALSO THEN HAVE A NUMBER 

1432
01:00:41,070 --> 01:00:42,538
OF TRAINING AND EXERCISES, NOT 

1433
01:00:42,538 --> 01:00:43,339
ONLY WITH FIELD RESPONDERS SO 

1434
01:00:43,339 --> 01:00:45,108
THE PEOPLE THAT ARE -- CAN WHEN 

1435
01:00:45,108 --> 01:00:47,243
I SAY THAT, I MEAN PEOPLE WHO 

1436
01:00:47,243 --> 01:00:48,745
ARE ACTUALLY OUTSIDE, AS OPPOSED

1437
01:00:48,745 --> 01:00:53,116
TO IN THE EMERGENCY OPERATIONS 

1438
01:00:53,116 --> 01:00:54,384
CENTER, WHO ARE SUPPORTING THOSE

1439
01:00:54,384 --> 01:00:56,719
WHO IN IN THE FIELD. SO WE'VE 

1440
01:00:56,719 --> 01:00:58,221
PRACTICED A NUMBER OF SCENARIOS.

1441
01:00:58,221 --> 01:01:00,456
WHAT WOULD WE DO IF THERE WAS 

1442
01:01:00,456 --> 01:01:04,093
SOME KIND OF DRONE OR SOME KIND 

1443
01:01:04,093 --> 01:01:06,095
OF OTHER DISASTER? PEOPLE DOING 

1444
01:01:06,095 --> 01:01:09,932
BAD THINGS TO HURT PEOPLE. WE'VE

1445
01:01:09,932 --> 01:01:12,802
ALSO LOOKED AT THE FAN ACTIVITY 

1446
01:01:12,802 --> 01:01:13,736
AREAS, SEATTLE AND WHAT NOT, 

1447
01:01:13,736 --> 01:01:16,039
KNOWING THOSE COULD ALSO BE IN 

1448
01:01:16,039 --> 01:01:18,441
JEOPARDY. SO WE HAVE PRACTICED 

1449
01:01:18,441 --> 01:01:22,445
WHAT WE WOULD DO. THE THING, I 

1450
01:01:22,445 --> 01:01:24,881
THINK, THAT'S MOST IMPORTANT IS

1451
01:01:24,881 --> 01:01:26,716
FIELD RESPONDERS ALWAYS, NOT 

1452
01:01:26,716 --> 01:01:28,284
JUST DURING FIFA, BUT ALWAYS 

1453
01:01:28,284 --> 01:01:30,720
HAVE A DIRECT LINE TO THE 

1454
01:01:30,720 --> 01:01:31,320
EMERGENCY OPERATIONS CENTER, 

1455
01:01:31,320 --> 01:01:35,558
STAFF, AND THE EOC, SO WE WILL 

1456
01:01:35,558 --> 01:01:36,426
HAVE THAT REALTIME INFORMATION 

1457
01:01:36,426 --> 01:01:37,293
PRIOR TO ANYTHING HAPPENING, AND

1458
01:01:37,293 --> 01:01:41,330
IF SOMETHING WERE TO HAPPEN. SO 

1459
01:01:41,330 --> 01:01:42,699
THEN WE CAN GET ADDITIONAL 

1460
01:01:42,699 --> 01:01:45,001
RESOURCES OR EQUIPMENT OR 

1461
01:01:45,001 --> 01:01:46,903
WHATEVER ELSE IS NEEDED, STAND 

1462
01:01:46,903 --> 01:01:48,771
UP A FAMILY REUNIFICATION 

1463
01:01:48,771 --> 01:01:53,142
CENTER, IF THAT'S NEEDED. WE 

1464
01:01:53,142 --> 01:01:55,111
HAD A FULL SCALE FAMILY 

1465
01:01:55,111 --> 01:01:55,778
REUNIFICATION EXERCISE AT 

1466
01:01:55,778 --> 01:01:58,748
MAGNUSON, WITH A NUMBER OF THE 

1467
01:01:58,748 --> 01:02:02,118
PLAYERS. WHEN I SAY PLAYERS, 

1468
01:02:02,118 --> 01:02:05,788
DEPARTMENTS THAT WOULD STAND UP 

1469
01:02:05,788 --> 01:02:06,823
THAT EFFORT, AND ARE 

1470
01:02:06,823 --> 01:02:07,457
NONGOVERNMENTAL PART SUMMERS, 

1471
01:02:07,457 --> 01:02:09,358
RED CROSS AND STUFF THAT WOULD 

1472
01:02:09,358 --> 01:02:11,961
HELP WITH THAT. SO WE PRACTICED 

1473
01:02:11,961 --> 01:02:13,262
A NUMBER OF THOSE SCENARIOS AND 

1474
01:02:13,262 --> 01:02:14,530
THERE ARE ADDITIONAL STAFF THAT 

1475
01:02:14,530 --> 01:02:16,365
WILL BE OUTSIDE, AND IN THE EOC,

1476
01:02:16,365 --> 01:02:18,334
SO THAT WE CAN GET WHAT'S 

1477
01:02:18,334 --> 01:02:19,569
NEEDED REALLY, REALLY QUICKLY 

1478
01:02:19,569 --> 01:02:23,339
SHOULD SOMETHING HAPPEN TO 

1479
01:02:23,339 --> 01:02:25,641
SUPPORT WHATEVER IS GOING ON 

1480
01:02:25,641 --> 01:02:25,908
OUTSIDE. 

1481
01:02:25,908 --> 01:02:30,246
>> THANK YOU, DIRECTOR. AND WHAT

1482
01:02:30,246 --> 01:02:32,348
ABOUT AREAS OUTSIDE OF THE 

1483
01:02:32,348 --> 01:02:33,683
STADIUM DIRECT AND THE SEATTLE 

1484
01:02:33,683 --> 01:02:43,893
CENTER LIKE AURORA, FOR 

1485
01:02:43,893 --> 01:02:45,828
INSTANCE, WE HEAR EVERYONE'S 

1486
01:02:45,828 --> 01:02:48,131
VERY CONCERNED, AND RIGHTFULLY 

1487
01:02:48,131 --> 01:02:51,067
SO. SO HOW CAN WE EXPECT 

1488
01:02:51,067 --> 01:02:52,735
RESPONSE THAT MIGHT BE HAPPENING

1489
01:02:52,735 --> 01:02:53,870
ON AURORA BECAUSE NOW THERE IS 

1490
01:02:53,870 --> 01:02:54,137
ACTIVITY. 

1491
01:02:54,137 --> 01:02:55,571
>> I KNOW THERE WILL BE 

1492
01:02:55,571 --> 01:02:56,472
ADDITIONAL STAFF FROM THE PUBLIC

1493
01:02:56,472 --> 01:02:57,573
SAFETY DEPARTMENTS THAT WILL BE 

1494
01:02:57,573 --> 01:02:59,575
ON DUTY, AND WILL BE OUT IN ALL 

1495
01:02:59,575 --> 01:03:01,811
THOSE PLACES, NOT JUST THE 

1496
01:03:01,811 --> 01:03:03,746
STADIUM. ALL OF THE PLACES WHERE

1497
01:03:03,746 --> 01:03:08,217
THEY THINK THAT FAN ACTIVITIES 

1498
01:03:08,217 --> 01:03:09,418
WILL BE OCCURRING. I DON'T KNOW

1499
01:03:09,418 --> 01:03:13,689
EXACTLY HOW MANY WILL BE IN THE 

1500
01:03:13,689 --> 01:03:15,091
AURORA CORRIDOR. THAT'S AN SPD 

1501
01:03:15,091 --> 01:03:18,361
QUESTION. I DO KNOW THAT WE ALSO

1502
01:03:18,361 --> 01:03:22,665
RECEIVED A LITTLE BIT OF FEDERAL

1503
01:03:22,665 --> 01:03:23,933
GOVERNMENT FUNDING FOR OVERTIME,

1504
01:03:23,933 --> 01:03:26,335
FOR PUBLIC SAFETY, SPECIFICALLY,

1505
01:03:26,335 --> 01:03:29,205
NOT A LOT. ALSO FOCUSED ON 

1506
01:03:29,205 --> 01:03:31,607
DRONES. BUT I THINK ALL OF THE 

1507
01:03:31,607 --> 01:03:33,943
RESPONDERS WILL BE ON HIGHER 

1508
01:03:33,943 --> 01:03:35,111
ALERT, IF THAT'S POSSIBLE, 

1509
01:03:35,111 --> 01:03:42,652
DURING THIS TIME, KNOWING ALL OF

1510
01:03:42,652 --> 01:03:45,221
THOSE THINGS THAT COULD OCCUR 

1511
01:03:45,221 --> 01:03:46,989
RELATED TO FIFA. YOU KNOW YOU'VE

1512
01:03:46,989 --> 01:03:48,090
ALWAYS HEARD ABOUT INCREASED 

1513
01:03:48,090 --> 01:03:49,258
TRAFFICKING. WE'RE ALSO 

1514
01:03:49,258 --> 01:03:51,093
CONCERNED ABOUT A CYBER EVENT. 

1515
01:03:51,093 --> 01:03:54,330
SO WE'VE HAD PREPARATION FOR 

1516
01:03:54,330 --> 01:03:54,831
THAT AS WELL. 

1517
01:03:54,831 --> 01:03:56,332
>> LIKE TABLE TOP EXERCISES. 

1518
01:03:56,332 --> 01:03:56,599
>> YES. 

1519
01:03:56,599 --> 01:03:57,800
>> AND THEN ALSO, BECAUSE I'VE 

1520
01:03:57,800 --> 01:04:00,102
HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF BEING DOWN 

1521
01:04:00,102 --> 01:04:05,074
IN THE EOC, I KNOW YOU HAVE. WE 

1522
01:04:05,074 --> 01:04:06,409
HAVE CAMERAS ACROSS THE CITY 

1523
01:04:06,409 --> 01:04:08,644
THAT THE EOC, THAT FEED INTO, 

1524
01:04:08,644 --> 01:04:12,715
THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO OBSERVE IN 

1525
01:04:12,715 --> 01:04:18,054
THE EOC WHEN THINGS ARE, WHEN 

1526
01:04:18,054 --> 01:04:19,222
THERE ARE ACTIVATIONS THAT 

1527
01:04:19,222 --> 01:04:20,356
HAPPEN, YOU'RE ABLE TO SEE IN 

1528
01:04:20,356 --> 01:04:26,862
REALTIME, SO CAN YOU TALK MORE 

1529
01:04:26,862 --> 01:04:28,331
ABOUT THAT? I KNOW WE HAVE SDOT 

1530
01:04:28,331 --> 01:04:31,334
CAMERAS THAT YOU'RE ABLE TO 

1531
01:04:31,334 --> 01:04:33,402
SEE. WHAT ABOUT THE CORRIDORS 

1532
01:04:33,402 --> 01:04:36,038
LIKE AURORA AND THE STADIUM 

1533
01:04:36,038 --> 01:04:36,873
DISTRICT? I UNDERSTAND THAT 

1534
01:04:36,873 --> 01:04:37,840
WE'RE INSTALLING CAMERAS, BUT 

1535
01:04:37,840 --> 01:04:40,176
THEY'RE NOT GOING TO BE ON, SO 

1536
01:04:40,176 --> 01:04:43,079
CAN YOU TALK ABOUT THAT? 

1537
01:04:43,079 --> 01:04:46,082
>> SURE. SO THE CAMERAS THAT WE 

1538
01:04:46,082 --> 01:04:49,285
RELY ON IN THE EOC, ARE THE 

1539
01:04:49,285 --> 01:04:51,020
TRANSPORTATION CAMERAS THAT SDOT

1540
01:04:51,020 --> 01:04:51,654
USES. TRANSPORTATION THROUGHOUT 

1541
01:04:51,654 --> 01:04:53,723
THE CITY, VERY HELPFUL FOR ANY 

1542
01:04:53,723 --> 01:04:55,057
KIND OF EVENT. IT'S NEAR ALL 

1543
01:04:55,057 --> 01:04:57,326
THE STADIUMS, SEATTLE CENTER, 

1544
01:04:57,326 --> 01:05:00,730
AND WHAT NOT, SO WE CAN SEE 

1545
01:05:00,730 --> 01:05:01,931
WHAT'S GOING ON. AND CLEARLY 

1546
01:05:01,931 --> 01:05:07,903
FOR PUBLIC SAFETY REASONS ONLY. 

1547
01:05:07,903 --> 01:05:10,573
THAT'S WHAT THAT'S FOR. WE, 

1548
01:05:10,573 --> 01:05:12,108
THE REST OF THE REPRESENTATIVES 

1549
01:05:12,108 --> 01:05:13,909
DON'T HAVE ACCESS TO THE POLICE

1550
01:05:13,909 --> 01:05:16,212
CAMERAS, BUT THE POLICE 

1551
01:05:16,212 --> 01:05:18,481
DEPARTMENT DOES, AND THEY ARE IN

1552
01:05:18,481 --> 01:05:19,882
THE EOC. SO THEY WOULD -- 

1553
01:05:19,882 --> 01:05:22,818
>> THE CAMERAS THAT FEED IN ARE 

1554
01:05:22,818 --> 01:05:23,286
THE SDOT CAMERAS. 

1555
01:05:23,286 --> 01:05:23,819
>> I'M SORRY. 

1556
01:05:23,819 --> 01:05:26,922
>> THE ONLY CAMERAS THAT FEED 

1557
01:05:26,922 --> 01:05:29,091
INTO THE EOC ARE THE SDOT 

1558
01:05:29,091 --> 01:05:29,358
CAMERAS? 

1559
01:05:29,358 --> 01:05:29,859
>> THAT'S CORRECT. 

1560
01:05:29,859 --> 01:05:31,527
>> THANK YOU. THANKS FOR 

1561
01:05:31,527 --> 01:05:34,096
CLARIFYING THAT. THANK YOU, 

1562
01:05:34,096 --> 01:05:34,330
CHAIR. 

1563
01:05:34,330 --> 01:05:35,531
>> YOU BET. THANK YOU. 

1564
01:05:35,531 --> 01:05:36,632
>> THANK YOU, COUNCILMEMBER 

1565
01:05:36,632 --> 01:05:38,668
RIVERA. I WANTED TO NOTE, THANK 

1566
01:05:38,668 --> 01:05:41,237
YOU FOR THOSE QUESTIONS. WE ARE,

1567
01:05:41,237 --> 01:05:46,008
AS A CITY, LOOKING TO HAVE A 

1568
01:05:46,008 --> 01:05:53,449
DISPERSE FIFA WORLD CUP 2026 

1569
01:05:53,449 --> 01:05:55,818
EXPERIENCE. THAT DOES REQUIRE A 

1570
01:05:55,818 --> 01:05:56,652
DISPERSE SECURITY. THE STADIUM 

1571
01:05:56,652 --> 01:05:57,887
ITSELF, AND THE IMMEDIATE AREA, 

1572
01:05:57,887 --> 01:06:00,489
BUT GIVEN THE FACT THAT WE ARE 

1573
01:06:00,489 --> 01:06:01,824
HAVING THIS DISPERSED FAN 

1574
01:06:01,824 --> 01:06:02,992
EXPERIENCE, WE SHOULD BE FINDFUL

1575
01:06:02,992 --> 01:06:04,360
OF FROM A SECURITY PERSPECTIVE 

1576
01:06:04,360 --> 01:06:11,467
TOO. BECAUSE WHEN YOU BRING 

1577
01:06:11,467 --> 01:06:13,269
PEOPLE TOGETHER, THAT BRINGS 

1578
01:06:13,269 --> 01:06:13,636
OPPORTUNITIES. 

1579
01:06:13,636 --> 01:06:16,405
>> YES, THAT HAS BEEN THE 

1580
01:06:16,405 --> 01:06:17,573
BENEFIT OF COORDINATING REGIONAL

1581
01:06:17,573 --> 01:06:18,874
PARTNERS THAT THERE ARE THINGS 

1582
01:06:18,874 --> 01:06:22,044
OUTSIDE THE JURISDICTION OF 

1583
01:06:22,044 --> 01:06:23,846
SEATTLE. SO WE'VE BEEN IN CLOSE

1584
01:06:23,846 --> 01:06:26,749
TRANSITION AND DONE TRAINING 

1585
01:06:26,749 --> 01:06:29,552
EXERCISES WITH THE KING COUNTY 

1586
01:06:29,552 --> 01:06:30,853
SHERIFF, WSDOT, STATE PATROL, 

1587
01:06:30,853 --> 01:06:33,155
ALL OF THOSE AGENCIES HAVE BEEN 

1588
01:06:33,155 --> 01:06:36,459
WORKING ON THE FIFA PLANNING AND

1589
01:06:36,459 --> 01:06:39,295
PREPAREDNESS WITH US. SO NONE OF

1590
01:06:39,295 --> 01:06:43,132
IT'S BEEN DONE IN ISOLATION. 

1591
01:06:43,132 --> 01:06:45,668
YOU KNOW, WE'VE ALSO A PRACTICE

1592
01:06:45,668 --> 01:06:47,603
SITE AT U DUB. THERE'S A BASE 

1593
01:06:47,603 --> 01:06:49,972
CAMP IN RENTON. SO WE'VE BEEN 

1594
01:06:49,972 --> 01:06:51,207
LOOKING AT THAT WHOLE FOOTPRINT 

1595
01:06:51,207 --> 01:06:52,842
OF WHAT'S HAPPENING, IN 

1596
01:06:52,842 --> 01:06:55,544
ADDITION TO WHERE THE FAN 

1597
01:06:55,544 --> 01:06:56,045
ACTIVITIES WILL OCCUR. 

1598
01:06:56,045 --> 01:06:57,179
>> YEAH, THE INFRASTRUCTURE, A 

1599
01:06:57,179 --> 01:06:58,414
VERY IMPORTANT POINT IN TERMS OF

1600
01:06:58,414 --> 01:06:59,982
THE FOOTBALLING ITSELF, IF YOU 

1601
01:06:59,982 --> 01:07:03,419
WILL. A LOT OF TALK ABOUT SEX 

1602
01:07:03,419 --> 01:07:06,856
TRAFFIC K ING. CAN YOU SPEAK TO 

1603
01:07:06,856 --> 01:07:09,992
THAT AT ALL, IN TERMS OF EFFORTS

1604
01:07:09,992 --> 01:07:13,062
THAT ARE ONGOING BY DIFFERENT 

1605
01:07:13,062 --> 01:07:16,232
AGENCIES? YOU KNOW, FOLLOWING UP

1606
01:07:16,232 --> 01:07:18,067
FROM OUR PUBLIC COMMENT THIS 

1607
01:07:18,067 --> 01:07:18,334
MORNING. 

1608
01:07:18,334 --> 01:07:18,734
>> I'M SORRY. 

1609
01:07:18,734 --> 01:07:19,902
>> ANYTHING IN TERMS OF 

1610
01:07:19,902 --> 01:07:23,639
PLANNING, AND BY THE WAY, SEX 

1611
01:07:23,639 --> 01:07:26,342
TRAFFIC IS NOT JUST AURORA, IN 

1612
01:07:26,342 --> 01:07:27,943
THESE SITUATIONS EVERY HOTEL 

1613
01:07:27,943 --> 01:07:28,778
THROUGHOUT THE REGION, PROBABLY.

1614
01:07:28,778 --> 01:07:32,481
BUT AURORA IS THE FOCUS IN TERMS

1615
01:07:32,481 --> 01:07:35,551
OF THIS. BUT IN TERMS OF 

1616
01:07:35,551 --> 01:07:36,352
INTERAGENCY COORDINATION. HAS 

1617
01:07:36,352 --> 01:07:40,322
THERE BEEN ANYTHING SPOKEN TO, 

1618
01:07:40,322 --> 01:07:41,490
RELATING SEX TRAFFICKING? 

1619
01:07:41,490 --> 01:07:43,692
>> WE HAVE BEEN DISCUSSING IT AT

1620
01:07:43,692 --> 01:07:44,427
LENGTH. ONE OF THE MOST 

1621
01:07:44,427 --> 01:07:45,694
IMPORTANT THINGS IS WE'VE BEEN 

1622
01:07:45,694 --> 01:07:46,896
TALKING ABOUT IT WITH THE 

1623
01:07:46,896 --> 01:07:47,963
PRIVATE SECTOR PARTNERS WHO 

1624
01:07:47,963 --> 01:07:49,665
MIGHT NOT BE AS AWARE THAT 

1625
01:07:49,665 --> 01:07:52,301
THAT'S GOING ON, SO THE HOTELS 

1626
01:07:52,301 --> 01:07:58,374
THAT ARE HOSTING THE TEAMS THAT 

1627
01:07:58,374 --> 01:07:59,842
ARE HERE IN SEATTLE, AND TALKING

1628
01:07:59,842 --> 01:08:01,177
WITH ALL OF THOSE PLAYERS THAT 

1629
01:08:01,177 --> 01:08:02,778
ARE NOT GOVERNMENT AGENCIES AND 

1630
01:08:02,778 --> 01:08:13,322
MAY NOT BE AWARE THAT FIFA HAS A

1631
01:08:14,090 --> 01:08:15,791
REPRESENTATION FOR THAT SPORTING

1632
01:08:15,791 --> 01:08:17,326
EVENT, TARGETING ADDITIONAL SEX 

1633
01:08:17,326 --> 01:08:19,028
TRAFFICS. IT'S REALLY ABOUT 

1634
01:08:19,028 --> 01:08:20,095
AWARENESS, WHAT TO LOOK FOR, 

1635
01:08:20,095 --> 01:08:21,864
WHAT ARE THE SIGNS? HOW WOULD 

1636
01:08:21,864 --> 01:08:28,270
YOU KNOW THAT THAT WAS 

1637
01:08:28,270 --> 01:08:31,173
HAPPENING? AND HOW MIGHT PUBLIC 

1638
01:08:31,173 --> 01:08:34,510
SAFETY INTERVENE IF THEY SEE 

1639
01:08:34,510 --> 01:08:35,077
THAT HAPPENING. 

1640
01:08:35,077 --> 01:08:37,580
>> YOU MAY NOT KNOW THIS, I DO 

1641
01:08:37,580 --> 01:08:39,148
BELIEVE I'M RIGHT IN SAYING, 

1642
01:08:39,148 --> 01:08:41,283
I'M THINKING ABOUT COMPARISON 

1643
01:08:41,283 --> 01:08:42,952
TO OTHER CITIES. WE HAVE TO IN 

1644
01:08:42,952 --> 01:08:44,253
CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO AND 

1645
01:08:44,253 --> 01:08:45,988
L.A., TWO IN TEXAS, DALLAS, 

1646
01:08:45,988 --> 01:08:48,290
HOUSTON. IN THE MIDDLE THERE, 

1647
01:08:48,290 --> 01:08:51,060
KANSAS CITY. AND THEN ON THE 

1648
01:08:51,060 --> 01:08:52,795
EAST COAST, MIAMI, ATLANTA, 

1649
01:08:52,795 --> 01:08:53,496
PHILLY, NEW YORK, AND BOSTON. 

1650
01:08:53,496 --> 01:08:55,664
AND I DO BELIEVE EACH OF THESE 

1651
01:08:55,664 --> 01:08:57,833
CITIES HAVE A REALTIME CRIME 

1652
01:08:57,833 --> 01:09:02,304
CENTER OR A VERSION OF IT. AND 

1653
01:09:02,304 --> 01:09:05,708
THAT'S REALLY IMPORTANT IN 

1654
01:09:05,708 --> 01:09:06,709
TERMS OF THE INTEGRATION. AND 

1655
01:09:06,709 --> 01:09:08,844
I'M CERTAIN MOST HAVE SOME TYPE

1656
01:09:08,844 --> 01:09:13,182
OF CAMERA SYSTEM TOO. I JUST 

1657
01:09:13,182 --> 01:09:19,455
WANTED TO SAY THAT. THAT'S WHAT

1658
01:09:19,455 --> 01:09:20,489
I'VE BEEN TOLD AND I JUST 

1659
01:09:20,489 --> 01:09:22,224
WANTED TO MAKE THE POINT, THAT 

1660
01:09:22,224 --> 01:09:24,426
THE IDEA OF A CREDIBLE THREAT 

1661
01:09:24,426 --> 01:09:26,595
NOTIFICATION. YOU DON'T ALWAYS 

1662
01:09:26,595 --> 01:09:28,330
GET THAT. ASK THE MAYOR OF 

1663
01:09:28,330 --> 01:09:31,433
ATLANTA DURING THE 1996 

1664
01:09:31,433 --> 01:09:32,601
OLYMPICS? WAS THERE A CREDITABLE

1665
01:09:32,601 --> 01:09:33,469
NOTIFICATION ON THAT BOMBING? 

1666
01:09:33,469 --> 01:09:34,970
NO, THERE WASN'T. SO THE IDEA 

1667
01:09:34,970 --> 01:09:36,939
THAT WE'RE GOING TO WAIT, 

1668
01:09:36,939 --> 01:09:40,543
BECAUSE IT TAKES TIME TO SPIN UP

1669
01:09:40,543 --> 01:09:41,544
THESE CAMERAS. WE TALKED ABOUT 

1670
01:09:41,544 --> 01:09:43,846
SHOOTINGS, AND THE SHOOTINGS 

1671
01:09:43,846 --> 01:09:45,281
HAPPENED BY THE TIME THE 

1672
01:09:45,281 --> 01:09:45,981
OFFICERS GOT THERE. REACTING 

1673
01:09:45,981 --> 01:09:48,551
AFTER THE FACT IS NOT GOING TO 

1674
01:09:48,551 --> 01:09:50,152
GET US THERE. AS SOMEONE WHO HAS

1675
01:09:50,152 --> 01:09:59,061
WORKED IN THIS FIELD, I DO HAVE 

1676
01:09:59,061 --> 01:10:02,097
TO SAY, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE 

1677
01:10:02,097 --> 01:10:04,967
POSITION RELATED TO CREDIBLE 

1678
01:10:04,967 --> 01:10:07,870
THREAT. TO BE FRANK, IT'S NOT A

1679
01:10:07,870 --> 01:10:08,771
STANDARD. IT'S NOT. SO I JUST 

1680
01:10:08,771 --> 01:10:11,040
WANTED TO MAKE MY STATEMENT. 

1681
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:14,176
THANK YOU. LET'S MOVE ONTO THE 

1682
01:10:14,176 --> 01:10:18,514
BURKE FOLLOW-UP TO THAT. CAN YOU

1683
01:10:18,514 --> 01:10:18,881
GO INTO THERE? 

1684
01:10:18,881 --> 01:10:24,486
>> THANK YOU. SO AS YOU KNOW, 

1685
01:10:24,486 --> 01:10:26,255
THERE WAS AN SLI TO DO ON THE 

1686
01:10:26,255 --> 01:10:27,256
OFFICE OF EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT. 

1687
01:10:27,256 --> 01:10:29,892
BURKE WAS THE CONSULTING FIRM 

1688
01:10:29,892 --> 01:10:31,226
THAT DID THAT WORK. THEY 

1689
01:10:31,226 --> 01:10:32,928
COMPARED SEATTLE OEM WITH 

1690
01:10:32,928 --> 01:10:35,064
SIMILAR ORGANIZATIONS. SO THEY 

1691
01:10:35,064 --> 01:10:36,198
LOOKED AT PORTLAND, SAN 

1692
01:10:36,198 --> 01:10:37,399
FRANCISCO, DENVER, AND 

1693
01:10:37,399 --> 01:10:38,367
VANCOUVER. THE REPORT FOUND THAT

1694
01:10:38,367 --> 01:10:40,302
SEATTLE OEM HAD THE SMALLEST 

1695
01:10:40,302 --> 01:10:44,239
BUDGET AND THE FEWEST NUMBER OF 

1696
01:10:44,239 --> 01:10:45,307
PERSONNEL. THEY ALSO IDENTIFIED 

1697
01:10:45,307 --> 01:10:48,310
A NUMBER OF AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT

1698
01:10:48,310 --> 01:10:51,046
IN THEIR REPORT, ADDITIONAL 

1699
01:10:51,046 --> 01:10:53,415
FUNDING, BOTH FOR ALERT AND 

1700
01:10:53,415 --> 01:10:54,083
NOTIFICATION, AND COMMUNITY, OUR

1701
01:10:54,083 --> 01:10:55,851
COMMUNITY SAFETY AMBASSADOR 

1702
01:10:55,851 --> 01:11:01,090
PROGRAM, WHICH IS A PROGRAM IN 

1703
01:11:01,090 --> 01:11:05,094
WHICH WE HIRE PEOPLE WHO SPEAK 

1704
01:11:05,094 --> 01:11:08,664
VARYIOUS LANGUAGES. WE HIRE THEM

1705
01:11:08,664 --> 01:11:10,165
TO SPEAK APPROPRIATE LANGUAGE. 

1706
01:11:10,165 --> 01:11:11,567
ALSO, NEEDING ADDITIONAL FUNDING

1707
01:11:11,567 --> 01:11:14,503
AND STAFF, FOR PROFESSIONAL 

1708
01:11:14,503 --> 01:11:16,038
DEVELOPMENT. NOT ONLY FOR OEM, 

1709
01:11:16,038 --> 01:11:20,676
BUT THE DIFFERENT EMERGENCY 

1710
01:11:20,676 --> 01:11:22,978
DEPARTMENTS ACROSS THE CITY. 

1711
01:11:22,978 --> 01:11:24,513
THEY ALSO NOTED THAT EMERGENCY 

1712
01:11:24,513 --> 01:11:26,048
MANAGEMENT REALLY IS A CITYWIDE 

1713
01:11:26,048 --> 01:11:30,486
PROGRAM AND IS NOT SUCCESSFUL 

1714
01:11:30,486 --> 01:11:31,587
UNLESS ALL OF THOSE DEPARTMENTS 

1715
01:11:31,587 --> 01:11:33,555
ARE PARTICIPATING IN NOT ONLY 

1716
01:11:33,555 --> 01:11:35,691
THE DEVELOPMENT OF PLANS, BUT 

1717
01:11:35,691 --> 01:11:39,495
THEN THE TRAINING AND EXERCISES 

1718
01:11:39,495 --> 01:11:40,763
TO SOCIALIZE THOSE PLANS. THE 

1719
01:11:40,763 --> 01:11:43,499
PLANS THAT I'M REFERRING TO, 

1720
01:11:43,499 --> 01:11:44,800
SUCH AS THE COMPREHENSIVE 

1721
01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:46,535
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PLAN ARE 

1722
01:11:46,535 --> 01:11:48,137
FOUNDATIONAL FOR WHAT WE DO. 

1723
01:11:48,137 --> 01:11:49,705
THEY'RE ACTUALLY USED, TRAINED,

1724
01:11:49,705 --> 01:11:51,306
AND EXERCISED TO ALL THE TIME, 

1725
01:11:51,306 --> 01:11:54,310
THEY'RE ALSO REQUIRED BOTH BY 

1726
01:11:54,310 --> 01:11:57,646
THE STATE AND FEDERAL 

1727
01:11:57,646 --> 01:11:58,447
AUTHORITIES IN EMERGENCY 

1728
01:11:58,447 --> 01:12:01,583
MANAGEMENT. THE ASSESSMENT ALSO 

1729
01:12:01,583 --> 01:12:03,319
NOTED THAT IT WAS IMPORTANT THAT

1730
01:12:03,319 --> 01:12:04,653
OEM REMAIN AN INDEPENDENT 

1731
01:12:04,653 --> 01:12:07,656
ORGANIZATION WITH DIRECT TIES TO

1732
01:12:07,656 --> 01:12:09,825
THE MAYOR'S OFFICE THAT THAT 

1733
01:12:09,825 --> 01:12:12,628
WAS BEST PRACTICE ACROSS THE 

1734
01:12:12,628 --> 01:12:16,465
UNITED STATES. OKAY, NEXT SLIDE.

1735
01:12:16,465 --> 01:12:18,167
SO THE IMPROVEMENTS POST 

1736
01:12:18,167 --> 01:12:21,937
ASSESSMENT, WE DID GET A BUDGET 

1737
01:12:21,937 --> 01:12:22,871
INCREASE WITH ALLOTTED SUPPORT 

1738
01:12:22,871 --> 01:12:24,473
FROM COUNCILMEMBER KETTLE. WE 

1739
01:12:24,473 --> 01:12:25,741
REALLY APPRECIATE THAT. I THINK 

1740
01:12:25,741 --> 01:12:27,342
IT'S REALLY IMPORTANT TO NOTE, 

1741
01:12:27,342 --> 01:12:29,211
THOUGH, THAT WE'RE A VERY SMALL

1742
01:12:29,211 --> 01:12:31,346
DEPARTMENT, SO THE BUDGET 

1743
01:12:31,346 --> 01:12:33,749
INCREASE FOR US WAS BIG. 

1744
01:12:33,749 --> 01:12:36,418
HOWEVER, WE ARE STILL 0.4% OF 

1745
01:12:36,418 --> 01:12:37,786
THE CITY'S PUBLIC SAFETY 

1746
01:12:37,786 --> 01:12:42,725
BUDGET. SO WHAT DID WE DO WITH 

1747
01:12:42,725 --> 01:12:45,360
THAT MONEY? WELL WE INCREASED 

1748
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:48,831
OUR COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT TEAM. 

1749
01:12:48,831 --> 01:12:55,738
WE ARE HAVING A CITY-WIDE 

1750
01:12:55,738 --> 01:12:56,338
PLANNING CEREMONY. CEREMONY, 

1751
01:12:56,338 --> 01:12:58,273
SORRY, SEMINAR IN THE FALL. WE 

1752
01:12:58,273 --> 01:13:00,075
ARE BRINGING IN THOSE WHO ARE 

1753
01:13:00,075 --> 01:13:01,310
DEALT WITH DIFFERENT EMERGING 

1754
01:13:01,310 --> 01:13:03,045
THREATS AS SPEAKERS, AND THEN 

1755
01:13:03,045 --> 01:13:05,314
WE'LL HAVE A TABLE TOP EXERCISE

1756
01:13:05,314 --> 01:13:10,486
HOSTED BY CNA, WHICH IS THE 

1757
01:13:10,486 --> 01:13:11,687
CENTER FOR NAVAL ANALYSIS. WE 

1758
01:13:11,687 --> 01:13:13,522
HAVE THEN ADDITIONAL TRAINING 

1759
01:13:13,522 --> 01:13:13,989
AND EXERCISES OR CITY 

1760
01:13:13,989 --> 01:13:16,592
DEPARTMENTS, THE PROFESSIONAL 

1761
01:13:16,592 --> 01:13:17,593
DEVELOPMENT FOR ALL OF THE 

1762
01:13:17,593 --> 01:13:21,230
CITY'S EMERGENCY MANAGERS, AS I

1763
01:13:21,230 --> 01:13:25,267
MENTIONED. THE DEVELOPMENT OF AN

1764
01:13:25,267 --> 01:13:28,570
INTERNAL OEM STRATEGIC PLAN. WE 

1765
01:13:28,570 --> 01:13:30,606
HAD A STRONG PLAN FOR THE CITY 

1766
01:13:30,606 --> 01:13:33,375
ITSELF, BUT NOT SO MUCH FOR THE 

1767
01:13:33,375 --> 01:13:33,976
DEPARTMENT. SEATTLE, AS YOU 

1768
01:13:33,976 --> 01:13:38,213
KNOW, IS THE PRIMARY WAY WE 

1769
01:13:38,213 --> 01:13:39,381
ALERT THE PUBLIC. ALL RIGHT, 

1770
01:13:39,381 --> 01:13:42,484
NEXT SLIDE. I DID WANT TO 

1771
01:13:42,484 --> 01:13:44,820
HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE SPECIFIC 

1772
01:13:44,820 --> 01:13:46,655
PROGRAMS THAT WE HAVE BEEN 

1773
01:13:46,655 --> 01:13:50,225
ENGAGED IN. BUT FIRST I WANTED 

1774
01:13:50,225 --> 01:13:53,128
TO SHARE WITH YOU ABOUT 

1775
01:13:53,128 --> 01:13:56,932
RESEARCH, RELATED TO COMMUNITY 

1776
01:13:56,932 --> 01:13:57,466
ENGAGEMENT. CONSISTENTLY 

1777
01:13:57,466 --> 01:13:59,902
RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT HAZARD 

1778
01:13:59,902 --> 01:14:01,370
AWARENESS, UNDERSTANDING THE 

1779
01:14:01,370 --> 01:14:04,439
LIKELIHOOD, AND CONSEQUENCES OF 

1780
01:14:04,439 --> 01:14:06,909
POTENTIAL RISKS AND HAZARDS CAN 

1781
01:14:06,909 --> 01:14:07,943
SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCE SAFE 

1782
01:14:07,943 --> 01:14:08,877
BEHAVIOR AND DECISIONS THAT 

1783
01:14:08,877 --> 01:14:11,480

WORLD EVENTS. FIRST OFF, I WANT 

1968
01:21:14,002 --> 01:21:17,906
TO THANK DIRECTOR MAYOR FOR 

1969
01:21:17,906 --> 01:21:18,673
BEING HERE TODAY. YOUR 

1970
01:21:18,673 --> 01:21:19,407
PRESENTATION. BUT MOST 

1971
01:21:19,407 --> 01:21:20,642
IMPORTANTLY, ALL THE WORK THAT 

1972
01:21:20,642 --> 01:21:23,144
YOU, YOUR TEAM, AND THE 

1973
01:21:23,144 --> 01:21:24,212
DEPARTMENT HAS DONE OVER THE 

1974
01:21:24,212 --> 01:21:26,581
LAST, YOU KNOW, SEVERAL YEARS TO

1975
01:21:26,581 --> 01:21:31,786
HELP PREPARE US FOR THIS MOMENT.

1976
01:21:31,786 --> 01:21:33,722
HELP PREPARE OUR CITY TO MEET 

1977
01:21:33,722 --> 01:21:34,489
THE MOMENT. I'LL SAY THAT 

1978
01:21:34,489 --> 01:21:38,526
OVERALL, I BELIEVE SEATTLE IS 

1979
01:21:38,526 --> 01:21:40,095
READY TO HOST THE WORLD FOR FIFA

1980
01:21:40,095 --> 01:21:44,866
WORLD CUP IN A LITTLE OVER TWO 

1981
01:21:44,866 --> 01:21:48,370
WEEKS. I BELIEVE ALL OF OUR 40 

1982
01:21:48,370 --> 01:21:52,741
OR SO CITY DEPARTMENTS AND 

1983
01:21:52,741 --> 01:21:53,575
AGENCIES INDIVIDUALLY AND 

1984
01:21:53,575 --> 01:21:56,044
COLLECTIVELY ARE GENERALLY READY

1985
01:21:56,044 --> 01:21:58,947
TO HOST THE WORLD IN A FEW SHORT

1986
01:21:58,947 --> 01:21:59,681
WEEKS. I BELIEVE OUR REGIONAL 

1987
01:21:59,681 --> 01:22:02,784
PARTNERS ARE READY TO HOST THE 

1988
01:22:02,784 --> 01:22:07,188
WORLD IN A FEW SHORT WEEKS. 

1989
01:22:07,188 --> 01:22:08,490
WE'VE TAKEN PIECES OF THIS IN 

1990
01:22:08,490 --> 01:22:11,159
MY OWN COMMITTEE AS IT RELATES 

1991
01:22:11,159 --> 01:22:13,094
TO TRANSPORTATION AND SEATTLE 

1992
01:22:13,094 --> 01:22:14,095
CENTER. THAT SAID, I DON'T 

1993
01:22:14,095 --> 01:22:19,534
THINK THAT OUR CITY IS AS READY 

1994
01:22:19,534 --> 01:22:22,370
AS IT COULD BE TO HOST THE WORLD

1995
01:22:22,370 --> 01:22:25,774
FOR SUCH A GLOBAL EVENT OF THIS 

1996
01:22:25,774 --> 01:22:31,413
SCALE. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT THE

1997
01:22:31,413 --> 01:22:34,015
SOLUTION IS SIMPLE. THERE'S A 

1998
01:22:34,015 --> 01:22:35,617
QUICK FIX AVAILABLE. THIS 

1999
01:22:35,617 --> 01:22:38,720
COUNCIL HAS PREVIOUSLY 

2000
01:22:38,720 --> 01:22:40,488
AUTHORIZED, AND FUNDED, THE 

2001
01:22:40,488 --> 01:22:42,157
EXPANSION OF CRITICAL SECURITY 

2002
01:22:42,157 --> 01:22:44,225
CAMERAS, IN KEY AREAS THROUGHOUT

2003
01:22:44,225 --> 01:22:47,062
THE CITY, INCLUDING IN MY OWN 

2004
01:22:47,062 --> 01:22:49,297
COUNCIL DISTRICT, THE STADIUM 

2005
01:22:49,297 --> 01:22:51,266
DISTRICT, SODO, WHERE THE ACTUAL

2006
01:22:51,266 --> 01:22:51,933
MATCHES FOR FEMA WORLD CUP WILL 

2007
01:22:51,933 --> 01:22:53,234
BE PLAYED. WE KNOW THERE'S A 

2008
01:22:53,234 --> 01:22:53,935
DISTRIBUTER MODEL, AND FANS ARE 

2009
01:22:53,935 --> 01:22:55,470
GOING TO GATHER THROUGHOUT THE 

2010
01:22:55,470 --> 01:22:59,074
CITY, AND THROUGHOUT THE REGION.

2011
01:22:59,074 --> 01:23:00,275
THE ACTUAL GAMES THEMSELVES. THE

2012
01:23:00,275 --> 01:23:00,909
LARGEST CONGREGATION OF PEOPLE 

2013
01:23:00,909 --> 01:23:05,680
ARE GOING TO TAKE PLACE RIGHT IN

2014
01:23:05,680 --> 01:23:06,614
THE STADIUM DISTRICT. SO COUNCIL

2015
01:23:06,614 --> 01:23:07,882
HAS PREVIOUSLY AUTHORIZED THAT, 

2016
01:23:07,882 --> 01:23:10,885
AND FUNDED THAT. AND I'M PROUD 

2017
01:23:10,885 --> 01:23:14,622
THAT WE ALSO BAKED IN THE BEST 

2018
01:23:14,622 --> 01:23:19,728
OF THE NATION GUARDRAILS AND 

2019
01:23:19,728 --> 01:23:20,862
ROBUST PRIVACY CONTROLS TO 

2020
01:23:20,862 --> 01:23:22,263
PREVENT MISUSE, AND PREVENT DATA

2021
01:23:22,263 --> 01:23:24,299
FROM FALLING INTO THE HANDS OF 

2022
01:23:24,299 --> 01:23:26,935
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR 

2023
01:23:26,935 --> 01:23:31,873
IMMIGRATION PURPOSES. SO TODAY 

2024
01:23:31,873 --> 01:23:35,343
I'M CALLING ON MAYOR WILSON TO 

2025
01:23:35,343 --> 01:23:38,546
TURN ON THE SODO CAMERAS, AHEAD 

2026
01:23:38,546 --> 01:23:42,016
OF WORLD CUP. NOW BEFORE I MAKE 

2027
01:23:42,016 --> 01:23:44,386
MY POINT, I WANT TO EXPLAIN WHY 

2028
01:23:44,386 --> 01:23:46,454
THIS ISSUE IS DEEPLY PERSONAL TO

2029
01:23:46,454 --> 01:23:49,691
ME. YES, CHAIR, I'M A LITTLE 

2030
01:23:49,691 --> 01:23:52,260
SPORTY TODAY. IT'S FOR GOOD 

2031
01:23:52,260 --> 01:23:55,063
REASON. IT WAS 13 YEARS AGO, IN 

2032
01:23:55,063 --> 01:23:57,932
2013, I SHOULD ADD, 13 YEARS 

2033
01:23:57,932 --> 01:24:01,703
AGO, AND THREE KIDS AGO, ROUGHLY

2034
01:24:01,703 --> 01:24:03,905
20 POUNDS AGO AS WELL, MAYBE 

2035
01:24:03,905 --> 01:24:06,975
THAT'S 7 TO 8 POUNDS PER KID. 

2036
01:24:06,975 --> 01:24:12,180
IN 2013, ME AND MY WIFE RAN THE 

2037
01:24:12,180 --> 01:24:15,083
BOSTON MARATHON. WE HAD JUST 

2038
01:24:15,083 --> 01:24:18,153
FINISHED RUNNING THE RACE, 

2039
01:24:18,153 --> 01:24:21,089
EXCITED, ELATED. WE'RE AT THE 

2040
01:24:21,089 --> 01:24:24,993
FAMILY MEET-UP LOCATION, WHICH 

2041
01:24:24,993 --> 01:24:33,868
IS ROUGHLY TWO BLOCKS OR SO FROM

2042
01:24:33,868 --> 01:24:36,337
THE FINISH LINE ON BOYLESTON, 

2043
01:24:36,337 --> 01:24:37,739
PROUDLY CLUTCHING OUR MEDALS. WE

2044
01:24:37,739 --> 01:24:41,409
HAD JUST RUN THE WORLD'S 

2045
01:24:41,409 --> 01:24:42,777
GREATEST MARATHON. THE MECCA OF 

2046
01:24:42,777 --> 01:24:44,379
MARATHONS. THE HOLY GRAIL OF 

2047
01:24:44,379 --> 01:24:46,147
MARATHONS, AND THERE'S A LOT OF

2048
01:24:46,147 --> 01:24:46,815
TERRIFIC MARATHONS, INCLUDING 

2049
01:24:46,815 --> 01:24:53,154
HERE IN THE CITY OF SEATTLE, BY 

2050
01:24:53,154 --> 01:25:00,528
THE WAY. WE HAD JUST RUN PROUD, 

2051
01:25:00,528 --> 01:25:02,096
TIRED, EXHAUSTED, PAINED. AND AT

2052
01:25:02,096 --> 01:25:03,198
THE FAMILY MEET-UP LOCATION, 

2053
01:25:03,198 --> 01:25:05,667
NEXT TO HUNDREDS OF OTHER 

2054
01:25:05,667 --> 01:25:07,469
FAMILIES AND KIDS WAITING TO 

2055
01:25:07,469 --> 01:25:09,003
CHEER ON THEIR PARENTS AND 

2056
01:25:09,003 --> 01:25:10,004
WELCOME THEIR PARENTS THAT HAD 

2057
01:25:10,004 --> 01:25:13,608
JUST FINISHED AND ALL THE 

2058
01:25:13,608 --> 01:25:14,742
EXCITEMENT AND JOY THAT THAT 

2059
01:25:14,742 --> 01:25:23,852
ENTAILS, AND THEN THE FIRST OF 

2060
01:25:23,852 --> 01:25:30,692
THE BOMBS WENT OFF. AND I'LL 

2061
01:25:30,692 --> 01:25:35,630
NEVER FORGET. AND THEN ANOTHER 

2062
01:25:35,630 --> 01:25:36,264
DEVICE EXPLODED SHORTLY 

2063
01:25:36,264 --> 01:25:36,831
THEREAFTER. PEOPLE, MYSELF 

2064
01:25:36,831 --> 01:25:44,139
INCLUDED, DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO 

2065
01:25:44,139 --> 01:25:46,841
DO. I'M A MILITARY VETERAN. 

2066
01:25:46,841 --> 01:25:47,876
STATIONED OVERSEAS, VOLUNTEERED 

2067
01:25:47,876 --> 01:25:49,010
TO FLY MISSIONS OCCASIONALLY IN 

2068
01:25:49,010 --> 01:25:55,583
IRAQ DURING THE TROOP SURGE OF 

2069
01:25:55,583 --> 01:26:00,488
2007. I KNEW WHAT HAD HAPPENED 

2070
01:26:00,488 --> 01:26:07,028
AT THAT MOMENT. BOMBS. AND I WAS

2071
01:26:07,028 --> 01:26:07,862
TERRIFIED. I DIDN'T KNOW 

2072
01:26:07,862 --> 01:26:14,269
WHETHER TO GRAB MY WIFE AND 

2073
01:26:14,269 --> 01:26:17,205
IMMEDIATELY LEAVE THE AREA, OR 

2074
01:26:17,205 --> 01:26:18,940
STAY HUNKERED IN PLACE. I KNEW 

2075
01:26:18,940 --> 01:26:21,709
THAT A COMMON TACTIC ONCE THE 

2076
01:26:21,709 --> 01:26:26,848
FIRST SET OF DEVICES HAPPENS, 

2077
01:26:26,848 --> 01:26:33,655
AND GOES OFF, THERE IS 

2078
01:26:33,655 --> 01:26:34,322
OFTENTIMES SECONDARY DEVICES. OF

2079
01:26:34,322 --> 01:26:36,024
COURSE TO GATHER MANY RESPONDERS

2080
01:26:36,024 --> 01:26:39,260
AND MORE PEOPLE TO A LOCATION, 

2081
01:26:39,260 --> 01:26:42,730
AND THEN BOOM, A SECONDARY 

2082
01:26:42,730 --> 01:26:43,831
DEVICE. SCARED TO DEATH. DIDN'T

2083
01:26:43,831 --> 01:26:45,266
KNOW WHAT TO DO. DIDN'T KNOW 

2084
01:26:45,266 --> 01:26:50,038
HOW TO PROTECT MY WIFE IN THAT 

2085
01:26:50,038 --> 01:26:53,374
MOMENT. WE DECIDED AT THAT 

2086
01:26:53,374 --> 01:26:56,211
POINT, JUST TO STAY PUT. AND 

2087
01:26:56,211 --> 01:26:58,713
I'LL ALSO NEVER FORGET IN THE 

2088
01:26:58,713 --> 01:27:01,716
CHAOS AND IN THE CONFUSION AND 

2089
01:27:01,716 --> 01:27:06,688
THE TERROR THAT UNFOLDED IN 

2090
01:27:06,688 --> 01:27:08,590
THOSE MOMENTS, BOMBS WENT OFF. 

2091
01:27:08,590 --> 01:27:12,193
I'LL NEVER FORGET, AND I'LL BE

2092
01:27:12,193 --> 01:27:17,332
FOREVER GRATEFUL BY THE OVER 

2093
01:27:17,332 --> 01:27:22,470
100, POTENTIALLY HUNDREDS OF 

2094
01:27:22,470 --> 01:27:23,104
FIRST RESPONDERS. FIREFIGHTERS, 

2095
01:27:23,104 --> 01:27:24,105
PARAMEDICS, AND YES, POLICE, 

2096
01:27:24,105 --> 01:27:26,541
PUTTING THEIR SAFETY ON THE 

2097
01:27:26,541 --> 01:27:31,379
LINE, RUNNING TOWARDS THE DANGER

2098
01:27:31,379 --> 01:27:33,481
TO HELP KEEP US SAFE. ALL THE 

2099
01:27:33,481 --> 01:27:36,651
CONFUSION. ALL THE FEAR, ALL THE

2100
01:27:36,651 --> 01:27:40,688
CHAOS, AND THE REALIZATION THAT 

2101
01:27:40,688 --> 01:27:44,392
SUCH A JOYFUL GLOBAL EVENT COULD

2102
01:27:44,392 --> 01:27:49,030
UNFORTUNATELY BECOME A MASS 

2103
01:27:49,030 --> 01:27:50,932
CASUALTY INCIDENT IN AN INSTANT.

2104
01:27:50,932 --> 01:27:57,772
AND ALSO I WILL NEVER FORGET HOW

2105
01:27:57,772 --> 01:27:59,607
VERY CRITICAL SECURITY CAMERAS, 

2106
01:27:59,607 --> 01:28:01,609
INCLUDING CCTV WERE IN HELPING 

2107
01:28:01,609 --> 01:28:04,145

WHAT HAPPENED, AND HELP PREVENT 

2110
01:28:10,218 --> 01:28:14,288
FURTHER TRAGEDIES. YES, IT DID. 

2111
01:28:14,288 --> 01:28:18,493
THERE ARE THREE FATALITIES THAT 

2112
01:28:18,493 --> 01:28:20,828
DAY. WITH HUNDREDS MORE 

2113
01:28:20,828 --> 01:28:22,330
CRITICALLY INJURED, AND FOREVER 

2114
01:28:22,330 --> 01:28:25,700
MAIMED. THOUSANDS MORE 

2115
01:28:25,700 --> 01:28:30,505
PSYCHOLOGICALLY MAIMED. NO 

2116
01:28:30,505 --> 01:28:30,938
VISIBLE SCARS. BUT 

2117
01:28:30,938 --> 01:28:38,746
PSYCHOLOGICALLY MAIMED AND 

2118
01:28:38,746 --> 01:28:40,515
TRAUMATIZED. THREE VICTIMS, 

2119
01:28:40,515 --> 01:28:43,084
FATALITIES. MARTIN RICHARD, AN

UNIVERSITY. AND HUNDREDS MORE 

2126
01:29:01,135 --> 01:29:05,373
VICTIMS. I WAS THERE. THAT 

2127
01:29:05,373 --> 01:29:06,874
EXPERIENCE CHANGED ME FOREVER. 

2128
01:29:06,874 --> 01:29:12,647
AGAIN, I KNOW WHAT CHAOS FEELS 

2129
01:29:12,647 --> 01:29:15,650
LIKE. I KNOW WHAT HELPED LAW 

2130
01:29:15,650 --> 01:29:17,919
ENFORCEMENT RAPIDLY RESPOND AND 

2131
01:29:17,919 --> 01:29:19,153
INVESTIGATE AFTERWARDS. NOW 

2132
01:29:19,153 --> 01:29:20,888
SEATTLE IS PREPARING TO BOOK IN 

2133
01:29:20,888 --> 01:29:24,258
THE WORLD FOR FIFA WORLD CUP, 

2134

01:29:30,031 --> 01:29:31,099
HOST CITY. AGAIN, OVERALL, I 

2137
01:29:31,099 --> 01:29:36,070
THINK WE'RE READY. THIS IS A 

2138
01:29:36,070 --> 01:29:40,608
PROUD MOMENT FOR OUR CITY. BUT 

2139
01:29:40,608 --> 01:29:45,747
PREPAREDNESS MEANS PLANNING FOR 

2140
01:29:45,747 --> 01:29:49,550
THE WORST CASE SCENARIO BEFORE, 

2141
01:29:49,550 --> 01:29:53,387
NOT AFTER. THE STADIUM DISTRICT 

2142
01:29:53,387 --> 01:29:54,956
CAMERAS HAVE ALREADY BEEN 

2143
01:29:54,956 --> 01:29:56,157
AUTHORIZED. THE STRUCTURE 

2144
01:29:56,157 --> 01:29:57,225
EXISTS. AND I BELIEVE THAT 

2145
01:29:57,225 --> 01:29:59,794
WAITING FOR A CREDIBLE THREAT 

2146
01:29:59,794 --> 01:30:01,362
BEFORE ACTIVATING THOSE TOOLS IS

2147
01:30:01,362 --> 01:30:06,267
FAR TOO REACTIVE FOR AN EVENT OF

2148
01:30:06,267 --> 01:30:08,569
THIS MAGNITUDE. WE'RE FAILING 

2149
01:30:08,569 --> 01:30:11,038
TO MEET THE MOMENT. THE CREDIBLE

2150
01:30:11,038 --> 01:30:15,977
THREAT STANDARD, WHILE THE MAJOR

2151
01:30:15,977 --> 01:30:17,545
PREMISE OF THE THREAT 

2152
01:30:17,545 --> 01:30:20,448
INTELLIGENCE IS FUNDAMENTALLY 

2153
01:30:20,448 --> 01:30:24,585
FLAWED. BECAUSE AS IT ELUDED TO 

2154
01:30:24,585 --> 01:30:27,622
EARLIER, IT FALSE AASSUMES THAT 

2155
01:30:27,622 --> 01:30:31,759
THE CREDIBLE THREAT WILL POP UP 

2156
01:30:31,759 --> 01:30:33,961
WITH NO FAIL RATE WHATSOEVER. 

2157
01:30:33,961 --> 01:30:35,129
SOMEONE WHO IS A FORMER 

2158
01:30:35,129 --> 01:30:36,063
INTELLIGENCE OFFICER WHO DID 

2159
01:30:36,063 --> 01:30:38,266
THIS WORK, I WISH THAT WERE 

2160
01:30:38,266 --> 01:30:40,067
TRUE, IT'S JUST NOT. WE NEED TO

2161
01:30:40,067 --> 01:30:42,703
GET IT RIGHT 100% OF THE TIME, 

2162
01:30:42,703 --> 01:30:45,072
BUT THE PEOPLE WHO SEEK TO DO 

2163
01:30:45,072 --> 01:30:47,041
OUR COMMUNITY HARM, ONLY NEED TO

2164
01:30:47,041 --> 01:30:50,278
GET IT RIGHT ONCE. PEOPLE WHO 

2165
01:30:50,278 --> 01:30:53,848
SEEK TO DO OUR COMMUNITY HARM, 

2166
01:30:53,848 --> 01:30:56,250
WHETHER IT'S A DOMESTIC 

2167
01:30:56,250 --> 01:30:57,685
TERRORIST ACT, FOREIGN 

2168
01:30:57,685 --> 01:30:59,120
TERRORISM, OR OTHER CRIMINAL 

2169
01:30:59,120 --> 01:31:02,423
ACT, THEY'RE USING THE LATEST 

2170
01:31:02,423 --> 01:31:05,960
IN TECHNOLOGY AND TOOLS. AND 

2171
01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:08,930
WE'RE HAMSTRUNG OVER HERE IN 

2172
01:31:08,930 --> 01:31:09,697
THE SUNKEN PLACE. AFRAID, 

2173
01:31:09,697 --> 01:31:12,166
APPARENTLY, TO USE TECHNOLOGY 

2174
01:31:12,166 --> 01:31:18,773
FROM THE WORLD WAR II ERA, CCTV,

2175
01:31:18,773 --> 01:31:22,243
WHICH BY THE WAY DOESN'T EVEN 

2176
01:31:22,243 --> 01:31:25,379
HAVE SOME OF THE TECHNOLOGIES 

2177
01:31:25,379 --> 01:31:26,447
AVAILABLE, LIKE FACIAL 

2178
01:31:26,447 --> 01:31:27,982
RECOGNITION TECHNOLOGY IN HAND 

2179
01:31:27,982 --> 01:31:30,384
AND OTHER TECHNOLOGY. IT IS 

2180
01:31:30,384 --> 01:31:32,119
BASIC IMAGES. I HEARD EARLIER 

2181
01:31:32,119 --> 01:31:35,323
BOSTON WAS HELD UP AS A 

2182
01:31:35,323 --> 01:31:36,591
STANDARD. I LOVE BOSTON. MY 

2183
01:31:36,591 --> 01:31:38,526
FAMILY AND I PROUDLY VISITED 

2184
01:31:38,526 --> 01:31:44,165
BOSTON EARLIER THIS YEAR. ALONG 

2185
01:31:44,165 --> 01:31:47,201
THE WATERFRONT OF THE RIVER, 

2186
01:31:47,201 --> 01:31:48,903
CAMERAS ALL OVER. ALL OVER 

2187
01:31:48,903 --> 01:31:50,505
DOWNTOWN. CAMERAS ALL OVER KEY 

2188
01:31:50,505 --> 01:31:51,939
AREAS. CAMERAS, CAMERAS. IF WE 

2189
01:31:51,939 --> 01:31:56,344
WANT TO USE BOSTON AS A 

2190
01:31:56,344 --> 01:31:57,778
STANDARD, WHICH I LOVE BOSTON, 

2191
01:31:57,778 --> 01:32:06,888
LET US USE THE WHOLE, AND NOT 

2192
01:32:06,888 --> 01:32:11,492
CHERRY PICK. THIS IS NOT ABOUT 

2193
01:32:11,492 --> 01:32:12,527
FEAR. IT'S ABOUT 

2194
01:32:12,527 --> 01:32:14,228
RESPONSIBILITY. IT IS ABOUT 

2195
01:32:14,228 --> 01:32:16,797
GETTING LAW ENFORCEMENT EVERY 

2196
01:32:16,797 --> 01:32:18,466
SINGLE AVAILABLE TOOL TO PROTECT

2197
01:32:18,466 --> 01:32:20,568
RESIDENTS, WORKERS, VISITORS, 

2198
01:32:20,568 --> 01:32:23,137
AND FAMILIES GATHERING IN OUR 

2199
01:32:23,137 --> 01:32:24,205
GREAT CITY. HERE'S THE GOOD 

2200
01:32:24,205 --> 01:32:25,306
NEWS. I BELIEVE WE STILL HAVE 

2201
01:32:25,306 --> 01:32:32,046
TIME TO MAKE THE RIGHT CALL 

2202
01:32:32,046 --> 01:32:33,614
BEFORE THE WORLD ARRIVES. SO 

2203
01:32:33,614 --> 01:32:35,850
TODAY, AGAIN, I URGE THE MAYOR 

2204
01:32:35,850 --> 01:32:38,252
TO RECONSIDER AND ACTIVATE THE 

2205
01:32:38,252 --> 01:32:40,121
STADIUM DISTRICT CAMERAS BEFORE 

2206
01:32:40,121 --> 01:32:42,857
WORLD CUP BEGINS. WE MUST ACT 

2207
01:32:42,857 --> 01:32:44,325
QUICKLY. AND WE HAVE AN URGENT 

2208
01:32:44,325 --> 01:32:45,560
OPPORTUNITY TO LEAD, PREPARE 

2209
01:32:45,560 --> 01:32:48,996
RESPONSIBLY, AND SHOW THE WORLD 

2210
01:32:48,996 --> 01:32:52,633
THAT SEATTLE TAKES PUBLIC SAFETY

2211
01:32:52,633 --> 01:32:53,968
SERIOUSLY. CREDIBLE THREAT 

2212
01:32:53,968 --> 01:33:02,276
STANDARD AGAIN IS INCREDIBLY 

2213
01:33:02,276 --> 01:33:05,046
CONFUSING, AND TOTALLY 

2214
01:33:05,046 --> 01:33:06,213
UNWORKABLE IN PRACTICE. WE NEED 

2215
01:33:06,213 --> 01:33:07,248
TO DO BETTER. THANK YOU, CHAIR. 

2216
01:33:07,248 --> 01:33:08,816
>> THANK YOU, VICE CHAIR. AS 

2217
01:33:08,816 --> 01:33:11,485
SOMEBODY WHO WENT TO SCHOOL IN 

2218
01:33:11,485 --> 01:33:13,120
BOSTON, BOSTON UNIVERSITY, I 

2219
01:33:13,120 --> 01:33:17,925
LIVED RELATIVELY CLOSE TO THE 

2220
01:33:17,925 --> 01:33:19,794
FINISH LINE, AND OTHER 

2221
01:33:19,794 --> 01:33:24,732
LOCATIONS. AND YOUR POINTS ARE 

2222
01:33:24,732 --> 01:33:27,034
SPOT ON. I WOULD SAY AUTHORIZED,

2223
01:33:27,034 --> 01:33:28,269
AND APPROPRIATED TOO. AS I 

2224
01:33:28,269 --> 01:33:29,270
ALREADY SAID, THAT'S 

2225
01:33:29,270 --> 01:33:30,104
PROFESSIONAL STANDARD. BY THE 

2226
01:33:30,104 --> 01:33:32,206
WAY, ALL THESE OTHER WORLD CUP 

2227
01:33:32,206 --> 01:33:34,141
CITIES ARE ALL BLUE CITIES. 

2228
01:33:34,141 --> 01:33:36,610
IT'S NOT SOME -- AS MY VICE 

2229
01:33:36,610 --> 01:33:38,379
CHAIR NOTED, THE PROTECTIONS 

2230
01:33:38,379 --> 01:33:41,649
THAT WE PUT IN ARE INCREDIBLE. 

2231
01:33:41,649 --> 01:33:45,820
NOT MENTIONED BY OTHERS, BUT 

2232
01:33:45,820 --> 01:33:49,890
INCREDIBLE. THE PROTOCOLS. THE 

2233
01:33:49,890 --> 01:33:51,225
COMPUTER AUDITS. EVERYTHING AND 

2234
01:33:51,225 --> 01:33:54,328
ABOVE. SO THANK YOU, VICE CHAIR.

2235
01:33:54,328 --> 01:33:59,367
COLLEAGUES, ANY OTHER QUESTIONS?

2236
01:33:59,367 --> 01:33:59,934
COUNCILMEMBER LIN, RIVERA? 

2237
01:33:59,934 --> 01:34:05,272
>> WELL, I REALLY WANT TO THANK 

2238
01:34:05,272 --> 01:34:14,215
THE COMMENTS OF MY COLLEAGUE 

2239
01:34:14,215 --> 01:34:17,985
COUNCILMEMBER SAKA, ENSURING 

2240
01:34:17,985 --> 01:34:20,087
YOUR PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, 

2241
01:34:20,087 --> 01:34:24,825
BECAUSE I DON'T REALLY ACTUALLY

2242
01:34:24,825 --> 01:34:27,762
HAVE THE WORDS. WHEN A TRAGEDY 

2243
01:34:27,762 --> 01:34:31,866
LIKE THAT HAPPENS, AND YOU ARE 

2244
01:34:31,866 --> 01:34:34,869
IMPACTED BY IT, YOU KNOW, YOU 

2245
01:34:34,869 --> 01:34:36,337
KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

2246
01:34:36,337 --> 01:34:40,241
AND THAT'S HOW WHEN I ALWAYS 

2247
01:34:40,241 --> 01:34:43,844
TALK ABOUT THE TRAGEDY IN A 

2248
01:34:43,844 --> 01:34:46,347
KID'S SCHOOL, IT IS PROFOUND 

2249
01:34:46,347 --> 01:34:48,883
AND MEANINGFUL. BUT I WILL SAY I

2250
01:34:48,883 --> 01:34:53,621
JUST WANT TO PLUS ONE ON YOUR 

2251
01:34:53,621 --> 01:34:54,488
CAMERAS COMMENTS. I DO THINK 

2252
01:34:54,488 --> 01:34:59,260
THAT I WANT TO LEVEL SET 

2253
01:34:59,260 --> 01:35:00,327
SOMETHING. WE HEARD FOLKS COME 

2254
01:35:00,327 --> 01:35:01,729
TO CHAMBERS AND MANY FOLKS COME 

2255
01:35:01,729 --> 01:35:02,830
TO CHAMBERS TO ASK US FOR 

2256
01:35:02,830 --> 01:35:04,265
THINGS, AND I JUST WANT TO BE 

2257
01:35:04,265 --> 01:35:05,866
REALLY CLEAR AND YOU WERE VERY 

2258
01:35:05,866 --> 01:35:08,669
CLEAR ABOUT THE THINGS THAT THIS

2259
01:35:08,669 --> 01:35:11,639
COUNCIL HAS DONE TO PUT SOME 

2260
01:35:11,639 --> 01:35:15,276
PREPAREDNESS IN PLACE. THE 

2261
01:35:15,276 --> 01:35:17,478
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN COUNCIL AND 

2262
01:35:17,478 --> 01:35:18,813
THE MAYOR, THEY'RE TWO SEPARATE

2263
01:35:18,813 --> 01:35:19,447
BODIES OF GOVERNMENT, IN WHAT 

2264
01:35:19,447 --> 01:35:22,383
WE'RE ABLE TO DO, AND WHAT THE 

2265
01:35:22,383 --> 01:35:24,418
MAYOR IS ABLE TO DO. OUR 

2266
01:35:24,418 --> 01:35:26,954
RESPONSIBILITY IS A FISCAL ONE 

2267
01:35:26,954 --> 01:35:29,390
AND A PREPAREDNESS ONE, SO WE 

2268
01:35:29,390 --> 01:35:31,792
BOTH GAVE AUTHORIZATION TO THE 

2269
01:35:31,792 --> 01:35:33,694
USE OF CAMERAS WITH PRIVACY 

2270
01:35:33,694 --> 01:35:34,762
PROTECTIONS IN PLACE. I, AND A 

2271
01:35:34,762 --> 01:35:37,798
FORMER COLLEAGUE AND MANY OF US 

2272
01:35:37,798 --> 01:35:39,800
PUT PROTECTIONS IN PLACE WHEN WE

2273
01:35:39,800 --> 01:35:43,037
DID THAT, EXPANDED THE USE OF 

2274
01:35:43,037 --> 01:35:45,773
THE CAMERAS. AND THEN ALSO WE 

2275
01:35:45,773 --> 01:35:48,109
PUT THE MONEY IN PLACE BY WHICH 

2276
01:35:48,109 --> 01:35:51,078
TO UTILIZE THE CAMERAS SO THAT 

2277
01:35:51,078 --> 01:35:54,181
WE WOULD HAVE A TOOL BY WHICH TO

2278
01:35:54,181 --> 01:35:55,983
USE IN PLACE TO INVESTIGATE 

2279
01:35:55,983 --> 01:35:57,518
CRIMES, WHICH IS REALLY 

2280
01:35:57,518 --> 01:35:59,220
IMPORTANT, AND WE'VE, OVER 

2281
01:35:59,220 --> 01:36:03,324
TIME, SINCE WE'VE ALL BEEN HERE

2282
01:36:03,324 --> 01:36:07,128
SEEN USE OF CAMERAS IN ORDER TO 

2283
01:36:07,128 --> 01:36:08,195
IDENTIFY FOLKS THAT HAVE 

2284
01:36:08,195 --> 01:36:09,663
COMMITTED CRIMES, BY WHICH WE'RE

2285
01:36:09,663 --> 01:36:12,433
ABLE TO HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE.

2286
01:36:12,433 --> 01:36:14,168
SO THAT IS OUR RESPONSIBILITY. 

2287
01:36:14,168 --> 01:36:16,370
WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR 

2288
01:36:16,370 --> 01:36:19,106
TURNING ON THE CAMERAS. THAT IS 

2289
01:36:19,106 --> 01:36:19,974
STRICTLY A MAYORAL FUNCTION. SO 

2290
01:36:19,974 --> 01:36:23,844
I SAY THAT, NOT TO USE IT AS AN 

2291
01:36:23,844 --> 01:36:25,179
EXCUSE, BUT TO REALITY CHECK 

2292
01:36:25,179 --> 01:36:27,281
WHAT WE'RE ABLE TO DO, BECAUSE 

2293
01:36:27,281 --> 01:36:29,250
WE HEAR FROM ALL OUR 

2294
01:36:29,250 --> 01:36:30,751
CONSTITUENTS ON WHAT WE WOULD 

2295
01:36:30,751 --> 01:36:32,286
LIKE THEM TO DO, I MEAN, WHAT 

2296
01:36:32,286 --> 01:36:34,955
THEY WOULD LIKE FOR US TO DO. 

2297
01:36:34,955 --> 01:36:36,490
AND THEN WE NEED TO BE REALLY 

2298
01:36:36,490 --> 01:36:37,291
CLEAR TO OUR CONSTITUENTS WHAT 

2299
01:36:37,291 --> 01:36:38,893
WE'RE ABLE TO DO, AND WHAT WE 

2300
01:36:38,893 --> 01:36:40,161
HAVE DONE, AND THEN PIECES THAT 

2301
01:36:40,161 --> 01:36:43,831
ARE REALLY NOT UP TO US, THEY'RE

2302
01:36:43,831 --> 01:36:45,633
UP TO THE MAYOR'S OFFICE TO DO.

2303
01:36:45,633 --> 01:36:48,369
SO ON THIS ONE, WE'VE PUT ALL 

2304
01:36:48,369 --> 01:36:50,404
OF THAT IN PLACE. BY THE WAY, 

2305
01:36:50,404 --> 01:36:52,339
ALSO THERE ARE CAMERAS ON AURORA

2306
01:36:52,339 --> 01:36:56,544
TO HELP INVESTIGATE CRIMES THAT 

2307
01:36:56,544 --> 01:36:58,179
ARE HAPPENING IN AURORA. WE'RE 

2308
01:36:58,179 --> 01:36:59,613
ALL VERY CONCERNED, AND 

2309
01:36:59,613 --> 01:37:04,819
DISTRESSED ABOUT WHAT'S 

2310
01:37:04,819 --> 01:37:06,987
HAPPENING ON AURORA. AND I WOULD

2311
01:37:06,987 --> 01:37:09,823
LOVE TO HEAR BOTH FROM THE 

2312
01:37:09,823 --> 01:37:13,093
MAYOR'S OFFICE, AND THEN SPD, 

2313
01:37:13,093 --> 01:37:15,296
MORE DETAILS ABOUT HOW TO, HOW 

2314
01:37:15,296 --> 01:37:16,130
THEY'RE ADDRESSING AURORA. I 

2315
01:37:16,130 --> 01:37:18,232
KNOW THAT THE NORTH PRECINCT IS 

2316
01:37:18,232 --> 01:37:22,436
DOING A LOT, BECAUSE I MEET WITH

2317
01:37:22,436 --> 01:37:24,238
CAPTAIN OF THE NORTH PRECINCT, 

2318
01:37:24,238 --> 01:37:26,173
GEORGE DAVIDSON REGULARLY, AND I

2319
01:37:26,173 --> 01:37:27,675
GET UPDATES, ALTHOUGH THAT IS 

2320
01:37:27,675 --> 01:37:29,977
NOT MY DISTRICT. I GET UPDATES 

2321
01:37:29,977 --> 01:37:33,080
ABOUT THE NORTH END. THAT IS A 

2322
01:37:33,080 --> 01:37:36,016
HUGE PRECINCT. IT SERVICES A 

2323
01:37:36,016 --> 01:37:39,053
HUGE PROSPECT OF FOLKS ACROSS 

2324
01:37:39,053 --> 01:37:41,255
THE CITY. SO THEY NEED RESOURCES

2325
01:37:41,255 --> 01:37:43,390
BY WHICH TO ADDRESS THE CRIME 

2326
01:37:43,390 --> 01:37:48,796
THAT IS HAPPENING ON THE NORTH 

2327
01:37:48,796 --> 01:37:53,167
END. THAT'S WHY I'D LOVE TO 

2328
01:37:53,167 --> 01:37:55,135
HEAR PLANS FOR HOW THE MAYOR IS 

2329
01:37:55,135 --> 01:37:57,571
ADDRESSING THE CRIME ON THE 

2330
01:37:57,571 --> 01:37:59,039
NORTH END, PARTICULARLY AURORA. 

2331
01:37:59,039 --> 01:38:00,441
AGAIN, NOT MY DISTRICT, BUT I 

2332
01:38:00,441 --> 01:38:02,343
CARE. I CARE ABOUT ALL THE 

2333
01:38:02,343 --> 01:38:03,577
DISTRICTS ACROSS THE CITY. THOSE

2334
01:38:03,577 --> 01:38:05,579
OF US DON'T ONLY CARE ABOUT OUR

2335
01:38:05,579 --> 01:38:06,881
DISTRICTS, YOU'VE HEARD US SAY 

2336
01:38:06,881 --> 01:38:08,582
MANY TIMES WE CARE ABOUT THE 

2337
01:38:08,582 --> 01:38:10,117
ENTIRE DISTRICT, I MEAN, THE 

2338
01:38:10,117 --> 01:38:11,652
CITY. AND I DO CARE ABOUT 

2339
01:38:11,652 --> 01:38:14,822
WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN FOR 

2340
01:38:14,822 --> 01:38:16,357
FIFA. I APPRECIATE OEM. AND LIKE

2341
01:38:16,357 --> 01:38:20,194
I SAID EARLIER, I HAVE PERSONAL 

2342
01:38:20,194 --> 01:38:21,028
EXPERIENCE WITH OEM. I SAT 

2343
01:38:21,028 --> 01:38:23,697
DURING THE ACTIVATIONS AND I 

2344
01:38:23,697 --> 01:38:26,900
KNOW THE GREAT WORK THAT THE OEM

2345
01:38:26,900 --> 01:38:28,936
STAFF DOES. AND IT'S NOT UP TO 

2346
01:38:28,936 --> 01:38:30,070
THE OEM STAFF. THERE ARE 

2347
01:38:30,070 --> 01:38:32,139
PARTNERS ACROSS THE CITY, AND IT

2348
01:38:32,139 --> 01:38:33,073
IS ALSO THE MAYOR'S 

2349
01:38:33,073 --> 01:38:36,043
RESPONSIBILITY AS THE BOSS OF 

2350
01:38:36,043 --> 01:38:37,978
ALL THE DEPARTMENTS TO BE 

2351
01:38:37,978 --> 01:38:39,446
PREPARED, AND THEN TO INFORM US 

2352
01:38:39,446 --> 01:38:40,180
HOW THOSE PREPARATIONS ARE 

2353
01:38:40,180 --> 01:38:41,982
GOING, AND WHAT IS ACTUALLY 

2354
01:38:41,982 --> 01:38:43,484
GOING TO BE HAPPENING ON THE 

2355
01:38:43,484 --> 01:38:46,720
GROUND, AND ADDRESSING A LOT OF 

2356
01:38:46,720 --> 01:38:47,554
THESE CONCERNS THAT ARE 

2357
01:38:47,554 --> 01:38:48,689
LEGITIMATE. AND THEN I WANT TO 

2358
01:38:48,689 --> 01:38:53,127
ALSO SAY THAT I'M FROM NEW YORK

2359
01:38:53,127 --> 01:38:55,429
CITY. WE HAVE CAMERAS 

2360
01:38:55,429 --> 01:38:56,463
EVERYWHERE. ALL IN THE SUBWAY 

2361
01:38:56,463 --> 01:38:57,865
SYSTEM, AND ALL PUBLIC AREAS 

2362
01:38:57,865 --> 01:38:58,966
WHERE WE KNOW CRIME IS 

2363
01:38:58,966 --> 01:39:00,701
HAPPENING, AND THEN WE'RE ABLE 

2364
01:39:00,701 --> 01:39:03,737
TO, THE CITY IS ABLE TO, NOT WE,

2365
01:39:03,737 --> 01:39:05,773
I LIVE HERE, BUT THE CITY IS 

2366
01:39:05,773 --> 01:39:09,109
ABLE TO ADDRESS SOME OF THE 

2367
01:39:09,109 --> 01:39:13,013
CRIME AND BE ABLE TO, YOU KNOW, 

2368
01:39:13,013 --> 01:39:17,384
INVESTIGATE CRIMES, AND HOLD 

2369
01:39:17,384 --> 01:39:18,919
FOLKS ACCOUNTABLE, BECAUSE THEY 

2370
01:39:18,919 --> 01:39:20,254
HAVE THAT TOOL. AND THEY HAVE 

2371
01:39:20,254 --> 01:39:21,855
PRIVACY CONCERNS AS WELL. WE ALL

2372
01:39:21,855 --> 01:39:24,291
DO. I MEAN, THE BOTTOM LINE IS 

2373
01:39:24,291 --> 01:39:26,593
WE ALL DO. AND THAT IS VERY 

2374
01:39:26,593 --> 01:39:28,662
BOTHERSOME TO ME ALSO. THE FACT 

2375
01:39:28,662 --> 01:39:30,397
THAT HOW I JUST WANT TO MAKE IT 

2376
01:39:30,397 --> 01:39:31,598
CLEAR, I'VE SAID IT BEFORE 

2377
01:39:31,598 --> 01:39:33,667
WITH, AND I'M GOING TO SAY IT 

2378
01:39:33,667 --> 01:39:37,671
AGAIN. WE CARE ABOUT PRIVACY 

2379
01:39:37,671 --> 01:39:38,872
CONCERNS. WE WANT TO HAVE THIS 

2380
01:39:38,872 --> 01:39:41,108
TOOL BE USED RESPONSIBLY. AND IT

2381
01:39:41,108 --> 01:39:44,845
IS A TOOL THAT WE NEED TO USE 

2382
01:39:44,845 --> 01:39:47,581
WHEN INVESTIGATING CRIME. THAT 

2383
01:39:47,581 --> 01:39:48,949
IS THE BOTTOM LINE. AND IT HAS 

2384
01:39:48,949 --> 01:39:52,419
BEEN USED MANY TIMES TO 

2385
01:39:52,419 --> 01:39:54,355
INVESTIGATE CRIMES AND TO HOLD 

2386
01:39:54,355 --> 01:39:55,556
FOLKS ACCOUNTABLE, AND WE OWE IT

2387
01:39:55,556 --> 01:39:57,358
TO CONSTITUENTS AND TO THE 

2388
01:39:57,358 --> 01:39:58,993
VICTIMS TO BE ABLE TO 

2389
01:39:58,993 --> 01:40:00,594
INVESTIGATE CRIMES AND BE ABLE 

2390
01:40:00,594 --> 01:40:01,595
TO HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE, SO 

2391
01:40:01,595 --> 01:40:03,364
FOLKS AREN'T CONTINUING TO 

2392
01:40:03,364 --> 01:40:06,367
COMMIT CRIME. SO THIS IS REALLY 

2393
01:40:06,367 --> 01:40:11,105
IMPORTANT. SO I'M GOING TO JOIN

2394
01:40:11,105 --> 01:40:11,805
MY COLLEAGUES HERE IN CALLING 

2395
01:40:11,805 --> 01:40:15,175
FOR THE TURNING ON OF THE 

2396
01:40:15,175 --> 01:40:16,377
CAMERAS IN THE STADIUM DISTRICT 

2397
01:40:16,377 --> 01:40:17,611
AND JUST USING THE CAMERAS 

2398
01:40:17,611 --> 01:40:20,414
ACROSS THE CITY AS A TOOL. WE'RE

2399
01:40:20,414 --> 01:40:22,282
GOING TO NEED THAT. WE ARE 

2400
01:40:22,282 --> 01:40:24,718
HOSTING A LOT OF PEOPLE IN THE 

2401
01:40:24,718 --> 01:40:27,888
CITY. FOLKS WHO ARE COMING FROM 

2402
01:40:27,888 --> 01:40:32,326
ALL OVER THE WORLD. AND I KNOW 

2403
01:40:32,326 --> 01:40:33,660
THAT THE FIFA ORGANIZATION AND 

2404
01:40:33,660 --> 01:40:36,497
THAT THE CITY HAS PARTNERED 

2405
01:40:36,497 --> 01:40:39,400
TOGETHER TO MAKE SURE THAT WE 

2406
01:40:39,400 --> 01:40:43,103
ARE PREPARED AND TO MY 

2407
01:40:43,103 --> 01:40:43,837
COLLEAGUES' POINT, WE DON'T 

2408
01:40:43,837 --> 01:40:47,141
KNOW, YOU HAVE TO ANTICIPATE ALL

2409
01:40:47,141 --> 01:40:49,743
THE THINGS THAT COULD GO WRONG 

2410
01:40:49,743 --> 01:40:52,312
AND TRY TO PLAN FOR THAT, AND 

2411
01:40:52,312 --> 01:40:53,614
THEN HOPE NONE OF THOSE THINGS 

2412
01:40:53,614 --> 01:40:57,484
HAPPEN, BUT YOU DO NEED TO BE 

2413
01:40:57,484 --> 01:41:01,855
PREPARED, AND THAT INCLUDES ALL 

2414
01:41:01,855 --> 01:41:04,525
OF THE TOOLS THAT ARE 

2415
01:41:04,525 --> 01:41:06,293
DISPOSABLE, AND ALL OF OUR 

2416
01:41:06,293 --> 01:41:08,595
STAFFING AT OUR DISPOSAL AS 

2417
01:41:08,595 --> 01:41:10,130
WELL. SO ALL OF THAT TO SAY I 

2418
01:41:10,130 --> 01:41:11,999
WANT TO THANK THE DIRECTOR CHAIR

2419
01:41:11,999 --> 01:41:13,400
FOR BEING HERE AND ALL THE 

2420
01:41:13,400 --> 01:41:14,401
PREPAREDNESS THAT HAS HAPPENED 

2421
01:41:14,401 --> 01:41:17,271
ACROSS ALL OF THE CITY 

2422
01:41:17,271 --> 01:41:18,806
DEPARTMENTS AND THE MAYOR, AND 

2423
01:41:18,806 --> 01:41:20,707
THE FIFA ORGANIZATION. I WANT TO

2424
01:41:20,707 --> 01:41:24,044
LEARN MORE ABOUT THE SITUATION 

2425
01:41:24,044 --> 01:41:25,646
ON AURORA. I KNOW THAT THERE ARE

2426
01:41:25,646 --> 01:41:27,381
OTHER COLLEAGUES HERE WHO ARE 

2427
01:41:27,381 --> 01:41:29,249
NOT HERE, RATHER, WHO I KNOW 

2428
01:41:29,249 --> 01:41:31,685
CARE ABOUT WHAT'S HAPPENING ON 

2429
01:41:31,685 --> 01:41:33,287
AURORA. SO I WANT TO HEAR MORE 

2430
01:41:33,287 --> 01:41:39,092
ABOUT WHAT -- HOW THAT WILL BE 

2431
01:41:39,092 --> 01:41:39,860
ADDRESSED. THAT'S SEPARATE FROM

2432
01:41:39,860 --> 01:41:42,329
FIFA, AND ALSO RELATED, BECAUSE 

2433
01:41:42,329 --> 01:41:44,798
WE KNOW ALREADY THAT SEX 

2434
01:41:44,798 --> 01:41:45,933
TRAFFICKING INCREASES DURING 

2435
01:41:45,933 --> 01:41:47,100
THESE EVENTS. AND SO LOOKING 

2436
01:41:47,100 --> 01:41:48,235
FORWARD TO HEARING MORE 

2437
01:41:48,235 --> 01:41:50,604
SPECIFICALLY ABOUT THAT, AND I 

2438
01:41:50,604 --> 01:41:51,939
KNOW DIRECTOR, YOU CAN'T SPEAK 

2439
01:41:51,939 --> 01:41:53,807
ABOUT THAT TODAY. BUT I KNOW THE

2440
01:41:53,807 --> 01:41:55,075
MAYOR'S OFFICE IS IN THE 

2441
01:41:55,075 --> 01:41:59,847
AUDIENCE, AND SO I WANT TO HEAR 

2442
01:41:59,847 --> 01:42:03,217
HOW WE ARE PREPARING FOR, IN 

2443
01:42:03,217 --> 01:42:07,087
PARTICULAR, SEX TRAFFICKING, AND

2444
01:42:07,087 --> 01:42:10,057
CRIMES RELATED TO SEX 

2445
01:42:10,057 --> 01:42:11,525
TRAFFICKING. NOT JUST DURING 

2446
01:42:11,525 --> 01:42:12,960
FIFA BY YEAR-ROUND. BECAUSE WE 

2447
01:42:12,960 --> 01:42:14,161
ARE, AS YOU HEARD FROM OUR 

2448
01:42:14,161 --> 01:42:16,396
PUBLIC COMMENTERS, 

2449
01:42:16,396 --> 01:42:19,132
UNFORTUNATELY, IN THE LAST FEW 

2450
01:42:19,132 --> 01:42:22,703
DAYS WE'VE SEEN SOME DISTURBING

2451
01:42:22,703 --> 01:42:25,372
THINGS AND I KNOW THIS HAS BEEN 

2452
01:42:25,372 --> 01:42:27,040
HAPPENING SINCE I GOT HERE 

2453
01:42:27,040 --> 01:42:28,976
ALMOST THREE YEARS AGO. SO THANK

2454
01:42:28,976 --> 01:42:29,543
YOU, CHAIR. 

2455
01:42:29,543 --> 01:42:33,514
>> THANK YOU COUNCILMEMBER 

2456
01:42:33,514 --> 01:42:37,784
RIVERA. I APPRECIATE YOUR 

2457
01:42:37,784 --> 01:42:38,919
COMMENTS, TO INCLUDE THE FIFA 

2458
01:42:38,919 --> 01:42:40,621
WITH JUST TO CLOSE THEN. IN 

2459
01:42:40,621 --> 01:42:43,390
TIEING IT BACK TO MY COMMENTS AT

2460
01:42:43,390 --> 01:42:46,360
THE BEGINNING OF THE MEETING, 

2461
01:42:46,360 --> 01:42:48,729
WHEN IT COMES TO FIFA WORLD CUP 

2462
01:42:48,729 --> 01:42:52,332
SECURITY PREPARATIONS, WE CANNOT

2463
01:42:52,332 --> 01:42:54,568
BE OF TWO MINDS. THIS TWO MINDS 

2464
01:42:54,568 --> 01:42:56,470
PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE IN THE CITY

2465
01:42:56,470 --> 01:42:58,906
UNDERMINES US, AND WE CANNOT 

2466
01:42:58,906 --> 01:43:01,108
HAVE IT HERE FOR FIFA WORLD CUP.

2467
01:43:01,108 --> 01:43:03,176
TO FINISH ON THAT POINT, THANK 

2468
01:43:03,176 --> 01:43:03,877
YOU, COLLEAGUES. RELATED TO THE 

2469
01:43:03,877 --> 01:43:05,879
BURKE ASSESSMENT, THANK YOU IN 

2470
01:43:05,879 --> 01:43:08,682
THE WORK THAT'S BEEN GOING ON, 

2471
01:43:08,682 --> 01:43:11,618
AND OEM FOR PREPAREDNESS 

2472
01:43:11,618 --> 01:43:13,887
TRAINING. YOU KNOW, RAINIER 

2473
01:43:13,887 --> 01:43:15,322
BEACH, STOP THE BLEED, YOU KNOW,

2474
01:43:15,322 --> 01:43:17,891
THAT'S ALSO FOR WHAT HAPPENS 

2475
01:43:17,891 --> 01:43:19,493
LOCAL, WITH GUN VIOLENCE. I'VE 

2476
01:43:19,493 --> 01:43:22,195
DONE STOP THE BLEED TRAINING AT 

2477
01:43:22,195 --> 01:43:24,431
THE QUEEN ANNE LIBRARY THROUGH 

2478
01:43:24,431 --> 01:43:27,634
OEM. I DON'T KNOW HOW MANY 

2479
01:43:27,634 --> 01:43:30,737
YEARS AGO NOW. BUT ALSO, YOU'RE

2480
01:43:30,737 --> 01:43:32,673
MENTIONING OF S.N.A.P. I AM, WAS

2481
01:43:32,673 --> 01:43:34,641
A S.N.A.P. CAPTAIN, IN ADDITION 

2482
01:43:34,641 --> 01:43:37,010
TO BEING A BLOCK WATCH CAPTAIN. 

2483
01:43:37,010 --> 01:43:39,846
I STILL AM A BLOCK WATCH 

2484
01:43:39,846 --> 01:43:42,883
CAPTAIN. SO IT WILL BE A TEST TO

2485
01:43:42,883 --> 01:43:43,850
THE SYSTEM, NOT THROUGH 

2486
01:43:43,850 --> 01:43:44,518
COUNCILMEMBER MEANS, BUT THROUGH

2487
01:43:44,518 --> 01:43:46,286
COMMUNITY MEANS IT COMES TO ME. 

2488
01:43:46,286 --> 01:43:50,057
SO THAT WILL BE A TEST OF THE 

2489
01:43:50,057 --> 01:43:51,892
SYSTEM. THE KEY WITH THE BURKE 

2490
01:43:51,892 --> 01:43:53,560
ASSESSMENT IS HAVING A STRONG 

2491
01:43:53,560 --> 01:43:54,928
PLAN, AND THIS IS WHERE THE 

2492
01:43:54,928 --> 01:43:56,430
MAYOR'S OFFICE IS REALLY 

2493
01:43:56,430 --> 01:43:59,566
IMPORTANT. THE SENSE THAT OEM AT

2494
01:43:59,566 --> 01:44:01,902
TIMES MAY HAVE TO DIRECT OTHER 

2495
01:44:01,902 --> 01:44:03,737
DEPARTMENTS. THERE'S A 

2496
01:44:03,737 --> 01:44:04,838
HIERARCHY AT TIMES IN CRISIS. 

2497
01:44:04,838 --> 01:44:06,173
AGAIN, CRISIS MANAGEMENT, AS 

2498
01:44:06,173 --> 01:44:09,977
SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN IN IT 

2499
01:44:09,977 --> 01:44:11,878
COUNTLESS TIMES, YOU HAVE TO 

2500
01:44:11,878 --> 01:44:14,381
HAVE THE CLARITY AND THE 

2501
01:44:14,381 --> 01:44:15,015
PROTOCOLS. THE STANDARD 

2502
01:44:15,015 --> 01:44:16,149
OPERATING PROCEDURES, THE 

2503
01:44:16,149 --> 01:44:16,783
CHECKLISTS. NOTHING CAN BE DONE 

2504
01:44:16,783 --> 01:44:19,553
ON THE FLY IN A CRISIS. THAT'S 

2505
01:44:19,553 --> 01:44:21,588
A RECIPE FOR DISASTER. SO HAVING

2506
01:44:21,588 --> 01:44:24,024
THOSE PIECES ARE REALLY 

2507
01:44:24,024 --> 01:44:25,726
IMPORTANT. SO I APPRECIATE THE 

2508
01:44:25,726 --> 01:44:27,060
BURKE ASSESSMENT FOLLOW-UP, AND 

2509
01:44:27,060 --> 01:44:29,663
WILL CONTINUE TO WORK IT IN 

2510
01:44:29,663 --> 01:44:32,199
PARTNERSHIP WITH THE MAYOR'S 

2511
01:44:32,199 --> 01:44:32,966
OFFICE. I DO APPRECIATE HAVING 

2512
01:44:32,966 --> 01:44:33,767

2526
01:45:04,831 --> 01:45:07,567

2528
