He stated that while the Committee members feel that all Americans <br />should be able to live well, they also believe they must exercise fairness and <br />equity in their approach. <br /> <br />12. CITY COUNCIL COMMENTS <br /> <br />Councilmember Gregory commented that he attended a meeting at the Metropolitan <br />Transportation Commission on climate change and was pleased to see Mr. Perez and Wafaa <br />Aborashed, two San Leandro residents, in attendance. He noted that the Bay Area appears to <br />be ahead ofthe curve in addressing the issue of global warming. <br /> <br />Councilmember Gregory commented on the fence issue in Bay 0 Vista raised by Mr. Percival <br />at a previous meeting. He noted that while any ordinance changes would be too late to help <br />Mr. Percival, he has expressed willingness to assist with the issue in order to benefit other <br />residents. <br /> <br />Councilmember Gregory provided a verbal commendation to Wes Blair, a member of the <br />Roosevelt Elementary School Dads Club who also volunteers with the Friendly Visitor <br />Program. Councilmember Gregory expressed admiration for Mr. Blair for his willingness to <br />take time out of his busy work and family life to make regular visits to a senior citizen to <br />provide friendship and socialization. <br /> <br />Vice Mayor Grant commented that she met with representatives from ABAG regarding the <br />Bay Trail Slough Bridge project. She noted the level of effort that the City has already <br />invested in the project. On March 8, 2007, the item will be coming to ACTIA for a funding <br />decision, and she asked Mayor Santos and Councilmember Starosciak for help in moving the <br />proj ect forward. <br /> <br />Mayor Santos noted that it is a high priority project. He indicated that the agreement with the <br />Port of Oakland, which was one of the major holdups, is being finalized. Mayor Santos stated <br />that he and City Manager Jermanis met with East Bay Regional Park District staff last week, <br />and they are also very excited about getting the project completed. <br /> <br />Councilmember Starosciak commented that the project is a line item in the CMA budget for <br />pedestrian and bicycle improvements. She noted that there was an attempt to get the project <br />removed from CMA's budget, and she wanted to ensure that staff is aware and makes its best <br />efforts to maintain the project. <br /> <br />Mr. Jermanis stated that staff is hopeful to have the agreement with the City and the Port of <br />Oakland on the March 19, 2007 agenda. He noted that the slough bridge project has been a <br />long time in coming. Mr. Jermanis indicated that ABAG provided the initial funding for the <br />project design. The design is now complete, and the bridge is ready to be constructed. <br />
