Philosophy of moving to this 100 i understand you made the decision to go into a completely automate the system but were losing a significant value that cant be measured by the bottom line. Whats your response to that . I think its finding the right balance. To be clear we know theres fear but ive been clear and we worked collaboratively with the teamsters, we wont take the facilities down to no operators. Commissioner Aliso Ferrell is down to two people. One at one time of day and a gap in the shift. If theres demands for additional staff this is flexible. Commissioner sounds like you have a petition of 300 customers. And we have been meeting with stakeholders throughout the process long before i arrived at the m. T. A. I cant get a clear idea of how many more cuts you have planned. Theres one slide. The majority of changes have been made. Theres been a few facilities that have not gone through the upgrades yet. Commissioner so these cuts are all based on your overall Capital Developm
You stated that the permit was improperly issued . Correct. Secondly, we heard mr. Curran talk about while this window open into the neighbors Property Line, does this set up automatically the opportunity for notice of violation . It has been discovered that theres a window that is not exactly legal because it goes into the neighbors Property Line without permission . That specific issue is not addressed in the planning code. I should ask mr. Curran and the next part, whether that would narrate a notice of violation as recently discovered is a win toe that windows that opens across the Property Line. Correct. From taur perspective, we dont address that situation. If we did if it was legally done, now its not conforming to the code, that would not be a violation. It would be allowed to stay that way. I cant speak to the Building Code. Thank you very much. We have lots of questions for you. Welcome back. Thank you. Is there any Public Comment on this item. Please approach. Good evening a
If jon stewart were here this wouldnt be happening. Committee on the judiciary subcommittee on constitutional civil rights and liberties will come to order. Thank the officers for get itin the doors shut and folks in. Thank you so much. Without objection, the chair is authorized to declare recess at any time. I welcome everyone todays hearing on the path to Restorative Justice. I will now recognize myself for an opening statement. Today is june, a day that commemorates the abolition of slavery in texas and more generally throughout the confederacy. The news with the emancipation proclamation did not reach texas for two years so all enslaved people knew they were free despite lincolns emancipation. Slavery was a crime against humanity, one whose impacts we as a society continue to grapple with today. This year marks the 400th anniversary of the first african slaves being brought to america. Slaveries of our nations first original sin. Our constitution protected it and various compromise
And this is an everyday occurrence in america. I have the privilege of having leaders in my community who over the decades have given me strength. One of them was a woman on the fifth floor of the projects. Building in which i lived whose son was murdered. She taught me hope is the action conviction. Despiair wont have the last word, but when i come back on a day like today, i wonder if other senators had people shot like that in their neighborhood, if it wouldnt be a headline. When people are shot and killed, the world seems to keep going on. And so i wonder about having the last word. What happens when the last word is no words. When its silence . And i feel a sense of anger where we are in the United States of america where we have not had direct conversations about a lot of the root causes of the inequities and pain and hurt manifested in economic disparities and Health Disparities and a criminal Justice System that is a form of new jim crow. We as a nation have not truly acknowled
Foin. Just interesting where this project is going. And i think its important that your neighbors know at some point where this project is going. And probably make your life a lot more friendly with them. Did you have a second question . I want clarification on one thing. Thank you very much for volunteering that the privacy screen will be more elaborate with opaque windows. It was it was mentioned three property lines and one is scheduled to be opaque at this point. And the other two are not, but is there would you volunteer to make all three opaque and that would take that issue away . As an issue of the appellant. One second here. An i am trying to make issues go away for you. An appreciate that. Perhaps i could answer in rebuttal. Sure. Thank you. Give my client a chance to confirm. Sure. Thanks very much. Okay. Give them a moment, i guess. No, they will do in it rebuttal. They volunteered to address it in rebuttal. Lets let mr. Current speak first. Did you have questions you wante
