Capture everyone. So, we are going to start with our first item with a report around preparedness. Before i start that, i just wanted to say that since the last meeting, we have gone from summer to winter and from fires to floods, as is how it goes in San Francisco. I just wanted to say thank you and to acknowledge the department of Emergency Management, the p. U. C. , public works, m. T. A. , fire and rec park. We met yesterday to review the citys response to the december 7th storm and recent flooding. As folks are probably aware, we had an out of nowhere, almost tornado, technically a micro burst, but it dumped a whole lot of water on the city in a short period of time on a saturday afternoon. So, due to that, we have been working on adjusting our plans to be more ready to respond in a no notice storm event, which is fairly unusual. However, due to the variability in weather and Climate Change and changes on the planet, we have to be ready for the unexpected. So, we are working on im

Just wanted to give kudos to some of our personnel from our Homeland Security unit. Captain chris put together an exercise that basically involved the station being incapacitated. We had an opportunity t
Revegetated with natives. You get the idea that its going to be an exponentially more of an exponentially increasing function sooner rather than later. And finally, well end with some of the work that weve been doing on the ground currently with rubicon landscape. Theyre our master landscapers, as youre aware. We really over the last 2. 5 years have developed a Good Relationship with lourdes, their manager. They do do existing groundwork for us. Weve gotten them into a seasonal maintenance where they remove the invasive. They do work on kind of a regular management schedule. Peter and i also work with the citys i. P. M. Coordinator in making sure that rubicon stays in compliance with the i. P. M. Ordinance and implements that into their training opportunities. Over the last several years, they dont apply herbicide as part of their programs anymore. We felt that overall consistent with the citys i. P. M. Ordinance directives, which is to use application as a last resort, that was an env
