OLD BUSINESS 5-A Commission and Board Liaison Reports (All commissioners) Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Old Business Commission and Board Liaison Reports. Commissioner Brillinger? Arnold Brillinger: Yes, I've been going to various commissions on disability in Berkeley and also in Oakland. The ones in Oakland seem to have lot of meat to them, because they're doing all kinds of work. Not only worried about the paratransit in the East Bay, but they're also dealing with different matters of transportation and how things are being constructed in Oakland. And I also went to the different AC Transit meeting, and they're continuing on with the working on International Boulevard to make it where the buses have their own lanes and things. So it's going to be interesting to see that. Our transportation meeting here in Alameda is next week, so I'll tell us about it in January. So those are my things. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: Great, thank you. Commissioner Roloff? Jennifer Roloff: The only thing I wanted to follow up on is And I think, I don't know if we have a commission, but is it Jennifer, Jen and Anto, you were working on ADA for businesses, and we had suggested that the Facade grant that the city matches be extended into businesses doing ADA, and essentially, Laurie came back with a "No". And I'm wondering if there's a way we can push on that, if we could talk to someone in the city offices as to why or. Acting Chair Jenn Barrett: That would be great. Do we know who is in charge of issuing the grant, or different grants for the city? Jennifer Roloff: Like the Facade grant. Do you remember the Facade grant, and that you came back and you said you checked into it and they said "No"? And I'm thinking maybe we can push a little bit. Laurie Kozisek: I can't remember at the moment. I will get back to you on that. Who should I report that to? 03/13/19 Page 26 of 32 | CommissiononPersonswithDisabilities/2018-11-28.pdf |
