THE STATE OF THE CITY WAS AMAZING. GREAT JOB TO OUR STAFF. MARISA, GABE, EVERYONE WHO WORKED ON THE EVENT. I THINK IT KEEPS GETTING BETTER AND BETTER EVERY YEAR AND THE ATTENDANCE IS GREAT TOO. AND NOT I'M NOT BEING BIASED, BUT YOU KNOW, FROM THE OTHER EVENTS OR THE STATE OF THE CITIES, I THINK OURS IS LIKE QUICK. IT'S BRIEF, IT'S GOOD. THERE'S A REALLY GREAT OPPORTUNITY TO NETWORK FOR THE MOST PART BEFORE AND AFTER. AND I THINK PEOPLE APPRECIATE THAT A LOT BECAUSE THEY GET TO CATCH UP WITH FOLKS AND TALK ABOUT DIFFERENT THINGS, PROJECTS, WHATNOT, AND THE SEGMENTS ARE GREAT. CONGRATS TO MY COLLEAGUES. THEY DID AMAZING IN THEIR SEGMENTS. I THOUGHT THEY WENT REALLY WELL. I DID ATTEND THE TODAK EVENT THAT WAS HELD LAST NIGHT HERE AT THE LIBRARY, AND IT'S CALLED HEALTH AND HARVEST, AND THEY DID A STUDY WITH A FEW PARTNERS TO TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE ISSUES THAT OUR FARM WORKERS FACE. BUT WHAT WAS REALLY INTERESTING IS DURING THE Q&A, WE ACTUALLY HAD COMMUNITY MEMBERS FROM DIFFERENT INDUSTRIES, NOT NECESSARILY FARM WORKERS, BUT GROCERY STORE WORKERS, AND THEY KIND OF ALSO TALKED ABOUT WHAT IT'S LIKE FOR THEM. RIGHT. AND I THINK OUR COUNTY SUPERVISOR, SUPERVISOR PEREZ, HE POINTED IT OUT, WHICH WAS REALLY GOOD, WAS WE DON'T NECESSARILY DO FOCUS OR HAVE ENOUGH STUDIES AROUND OUR OTHER INDUSTRIES AS MUCH. AND SO I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT THAT WE KIND OF TAKE A LOOK AT, YOU KNOW, WHAT CAN WE DO WHEN IT COMES TO US AS A CITY, BEING ABLE TO SUPPORT THE OTHER INDUSTRIES AND THE WORKERS THAT ARE IN THOSE INDUSTRIES. BUT YEAH, LOOKING FORWARD TO THE WEEKEND. I KNOW WE HAVE SOME EVENTS HAPPENING OUT HERE IN THE OUTSIDE OF THE LIBRARY, SO THAT SHOULD BE FUN. AND THAT'S IT FOR ME. THANK YOU. THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE. WE SHOULD HAVE A QUICK MEETING. STATE OF THE CITY. THANK YOU AGAIN. RESET. MARISSA AND ALL THE TEAM AND THE CHAMBER FOR PUTTING ON AND DOING WHAT WE DO. YOU KNOW, I THINK WE'VE WE'VE GOTTEN INTO A GOOD FLOW AND I DO LIKE THE MORNINGS.
THE MORNINGS ARE COOL AND WE GET PEOPLE IN AND OUT. IT'S 30 MINUTES OF VIDEOS AND YOU KNOW, THE SPEAKERS AND IT'S I THOUGHT IT WENT REALLY WELL. WE MISSED YOU. COUNCIL MEMBER DELGADO, I KNOW YOU WERE ILL, SO. BUT YOU CAME OUT WELL IN THE VIDEO, SO IT WAS GOOD. THANK YOU. YOU KNOW, THE GOAL OF ALL OF US, I THINK AS A CITY IS TO CONTINUE TO MOVE THE CITY FORWARD AND KEEP THE PROGRESS GOING. AND THE FEEDBACK THAT I GET FROM THE BUSINESS COMMUNITIES AND JUST THE RESIDENTS THAT ARE HERE AND LIVE HERE AND THEY'RE THEY'RE PAYING ATTENTION TO A LOT OF THE COOL THINGS THAT THAT ARE HAPPENING. AND I THINK ONE OF THE THINGS THAT MAKES US REALLY UNIQUE IS THE CULTURE AND THE AND THE FACT THAT WE'RE AN IMMIGRANT COMMUNITY AND THAT WE SHOULD ALWAYS SUPPORT OUR IMMIGRANTS, NO MATTER WHAT SECTOR THEY WORK IN. AND IT'S BEAUTIFUL TO SEE JUST HOW GREAT THE AND HOW HOW LARGE OUR SOCIAL CAPITAL HAS GROWN. AND IT'S OUR NONPROFITS, OUR SENIORS. IT'S, YOU KNOW, DIFFERENT FOLKS THAT PLAY BARAJAS THERE AT THE PARK.
I LOVE THEM, YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU LET THEM FEEL COMFORTABLE BECAUSE THERE ARE ELDERLY FOLKS THAT HAVE RETIRED AND THEY DO THEIR THING. BUT IT'S JUST A GREAT COMMUNITY. NOW WE HAVE STUDENTS THAT ARE PARTICIPATING AND THEY MAKE COACHELLA STRONGER. AND SO I WANT TO THANK EVERYBODY FOR THAT OPPORTUNITY. AND TO DELIVER THAT MESSAGE NOW FOR THE LAST TEN YEARS.
