CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities | 2018-04-11 | 9 | ITEM 2-A COMMISSION ON DISABILITY MEETING MINUTES OF Wednesday, April 11, 2018 6:30 p.m. intersectionally across different issues and so we have seven different clusters, and I mentioned them earlier on. And I am the Chair of the Disabilities Studies cluster, but our goal is as Commissioner Roloff asked about, is to think through what policy could look like and to produce analyses of the situation that we're in and different directions that we could head. And so, through Laurie, I will send a link to our homepage and to the white papers that we've produced. Jenn Barrett: Well thank you again so much for coming to speak. We really appreciate it. Arnold Brillinger: Karen, I'd like to thank you personally for coming. I heard you at the Berkeley Commission for Disability, and I said, "This is somebody we need to bring in here and enlighten our group and also because we broadcast this, and there are people at home that are hearing this and because it's our way of spreading the word and thank you very much. I really appreciate it.' 4-C Overview of City of Alameda Service Request System: See Click fix (City Staff) Jenn Barrett: Okay, we're going to move on to 4C, a presentation about SeeClickFix. Laurie Kozisek: There are two online resources that I want to tell you about, that I want everybody to know about. One of them is called SeeClickFix. You go to S-E-E-C-L-I-C-K-F-I-X.com This is the page here, that you get when you do that. You click on "I'm a Citizen" or you click on 'Sign up" over here and 'Sign up as a citizen', and then you put in your name, your display name, you might want to just have your last initial, and your email address, which will not show up in SeeClickFix, and your password, and where you either live or work, and it will assign you to the SeeClickFix for Alameda. You put in the Alameda address and then let me show you what it looks like here. Laurie Kozisek: Because I have a membership here as a citizen, and it looks like this. On the left hand lower side there, there's a scroll of a ticker tape of issues that are coming in. And you'll see that almost all of them are illegal dumping. That's the most popular one, we get hundreds of those. The other ones we get that are really common is sidewalks. If you have any kind of a tripping hazard or something that's not quite ADA Compliant, a curb ramp or sidewalk, that's in the public right away, you can report that and we get a lot of reports for that. Laurie Kozisek: And that's how we have the citizens as our eyes and ears to help us find the places where we need to respond because part of the ADA is that, not only do you build it correctly, but you must maintain it correctly, and we have to find out where it has deteriorated so that we can fix it. If you're a citizen, you would come in here and you'd go, "I want to report an issue.' You go here to report an issue and open it all the way up here, and then, if you've got it on your phone, that's why they call it SeeClickFix - you see it, you click a picture of it, and we fix it and we even know where it is. Because theoretically, you click it and you upload it right there. Sometimes people will click the picture and then they go upload it at their house and then it's got the wrong address. But what you do is you type in the address. I'm going to put in the City Hall West address here. Laurie Kozisek: Okay and it pops up with a map as soon as it realizes what I'm doing, and then I go "next", and I put in my issue and this is the important thing I want to tell you about, is these categories. I'm going to read them out in case people can't see them on their TV. The highlights. If 04/11/18 Page 9 of 18 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2018-04-11.pdf |
