Im trying to add meat to the previous motion and now it needs more time. I think what is important here this is been a Monumental Task for staff. And there are things i asked staff back in july, to do that have been pushed back several months affect the portfolio, not just a small portion. If were going to focus on a small portion were missing the big picture. Governor brown said in the next downturn, pensions will be cut. We have people on one side of the room who hate us and want to cut us to nothing, like in san jose and we have people on the other side of the room that are supposed to support us and want to cut us down to nothing. What were trying to do is just things take a little bit of time. No one here is against what you are saying. Were just asking to give staff wiggle room so it can be thoughtful. Thats all. Excuse me.

The room who hate us and want to cut us to nothing, like in san jose and we have people on the other side of the room that are supposed to support us and want to cut us down to nothing. What were trying to do is just things take a little bit of time. No one here is against what you are saying. Were just asking to give staff wiggle room so it can be thoughtful. Thats all. Excuse me. Governor brown is not going to be the governor for very much longer. For those that are going to vote in the governors race start thinking how you will evaluate who that person is going to be. Perhaps instead of july, which is in six months, we give you three months. That way im meeting you halfway it makes it more impossible. You are absolutely right. That was a great compromise. No wonder they cheered. No, but well do our best to deliver all three but i feel uncomfortable committing, we will without resources, be able to, because a lot of things have been put on the backburner, well deliver.

It is something we have distinguished ourselves on. We pride ourselves on the covers, the stories we are able to tell.
