Exhibit CC 08-15-2017 Oral CommunicationsCouncil Meeting, August 15, 2017
Madame Mayor, Vice Mayor and fellow Council Members. My
name is Jean Bedord and I've lived in Cupertino for over 20
years. I am here to thank the council for funding the Speaker
Series on Creating Community Together. I attended both Don
Weden's overview on growth in Santa Clara County and the panel
on retail. Both were excellent, and well organized by the city staff.
The discussions were quite pertinent to the issues so widely
discussed in Cupertino.
I have recommended recordings of these sessions to many other
people, and thank the technical staff for ensuring that the videos
are high quality.
We all agree that traffic congestion and lack of housing are major
issues in Cupertino, so I am looking forward to the next panel on
Housing on August 24, and the panel on Transportation on Sept.
28. I hope to see the entire council at these events -the
community needs you to move forward on solutions.
Following these panels, I suggest that the city do a similar event
on the planning process in Cupertino. There is confusion, and
more specifically, a lot of erroneous information about the city
planning process. The general public assumes that the "gateway"
process is an actual approval, even though city messaging has
been specific that it is not an approval. Having endured the
previous council session, I think it's a bottleneck to effective
collaboration between the city and developers. Frankly, I really
think the process can be much better.
Regardless, I'm here to say "Thank you" and that we are here to
support you in your efforts to do what's best for Cupertino.
