Special Board of Aldermen 7-14-2020 Page 10
So Madam President, | am sorry we are a little long, but we can take any questions.
President Wilshire
Thank you, Director Kleiner. Does anyone on the Board have questions for Director Kleiner? Alderman
Clemons?
Alderman Clemons
| do. Thank you, it’s actually not a question, | just wanted to say that | really appreciate the update from the
staff, the open and transparency of everything. | think that you are doing a fabulous job. You’ve answered
all of my questions. | don’t need to ask you anything because you have covered it all. Thank you very
much for your dedicated service to our City. Thank you.
President Wilshire
Anyone else? Alderwoman Lu?
Alderwoman Lu
Yes, | have several questions. Thank you, Madam Chairman. You know | had like several items that |
wasn’t familiar with and at this point it took a lot longer than | expected and | don’t know what to focus on.
For instance, you mentioned that GIS has been assisting EOC during the COVID and I’m not sure what
EOC is.
Director Kleiner
Emergency Operations Center.
Alderwoman Lu
OK. And the 92 refusals, what were they refusing? It was mentioned that there were 92 refusals which
was really good.
Director Kleiner
Yes, so when Vision’s data collectors approached the door, it is their practice to knock, they step back 6
feet, they inform the resident that they will be measuring the outside of the property and that they will be
taking some photographs that will be included on our property records. Those 92 residents chose not to
have the data collectors measure their property, they refused.
Alderwoman Lu
That was just — can | follow up, Madam Chairman?
President Wilshire
Alderman Lu.
Alderwoman Lu
So that was just to measure the exterior. So in the case that that happens, | know that in the past it was
discussed that at last resort we would have to have | don’t know the legal word, something. So we can’t
just measure that without their permission huh? That would require a warrant of some type?
