The transcript is provided by the firm that provides closed captioning services to the City. Because this service is created in real-time as the meeting progresses, it may contain errors and gaps, but is nevertheless very helpful in determining the gist of what occurred during this meeting. 1 [ Gavel ] >> Mayor Reed: Good afternoon. I'd like to call the San José city council meeting to order for December 1st, 2009. We will start with our invocation, and I'd like to introduce John Talbert from Westgate Church who will do the invocation. John is married to Sherry Talbert, has four children. At the age of 13 he went into full-time ministry, graduated from Biola University and has a master's from Talbot Theological Seminary. More importantly, during the time he's been in San José, he has taken on many successful projects with the city such as A Beautiful Day and Project Restoration which has drawn over a thousand volunteers from over a dozen churches to help revitalize neighborhoods in our city. John thank you for what you've done and welcome. >> Thank you, Mayor Reed and city council and those that are here and all those kids up front and the back, we're glad you guys are here. You can wave but don't wave during the rest of the meeting, okay? I'd like to say something quickly. As a pastor since 1996 I've become more keenly aware that God is -- he cares about the details of our city.

    Making Disciples to Impact the City for Jesus

    Making disciples to impact the city for Jesus A new church plant in San Jose, the Capital of Silicon Valley and America’s 10th largest city A document for potential launch team members and supporters of Garden City THE VISION Dear Friends, San Jose is California’s first city. Founded in 1777, the early settlers of San Jose called their new home the “Garden City” because everything they planted grew and flourished in the city’s good soil and temperate climate. This was a prophetic name for the city that’s grown to become the “Capital of Silicon Valley.” Silicon Valley is home to major global corporations such as Google, Apple, eBay, Cisco, and Adobe. Today, San Jose is America’s 10th largest city—a flourishing city of over 1 million people whose innovation is impacting the rest of the world. San Jose is a strategic city that plays a pivotal economic and cultural role in our global world. What happens in Vegas might stay in Vegas, but what happens in San Jose impacts the world. If even ten percent I love San Jose. It’s a beautiful place to live and work. Yet San Jose is also of the evangelicals a broken city teeming with busy people seeking meaning, hope, and glory everywhere except in the God who created them. The 8 million-person of our nation San Francisco Bay Area is the most un-churched region in America.1 Forbes moved into the Magazine calls San Jose both “The most innovative city in America” and “The largest cities and most sinful city in America.”2 San Jose needs not just one new church, it needs scores of new church plants.

    Santa Clara County

    Stroke, Heart Attack & Diabetes Context: Santa Clara County, CA and USA Heart disease and stroke still account for 26% of deaths among Santa Clara county residents, despite strong local progress in the past 15 years across the state and Santa Clara County, and remain the #1 and #5 killers nationally. 1,2,3 Given Santa Clara County's substantially lower death rates than the rest of the state from Strokes and Heart Attacks, combined with a critical mass of resourceful innovators, Santa Clara County and the SF Bay Area region have the unique opportunity to show what is possible in pressing Towards Zero Preventable Heart Attacks, Strokes, and Diabetes Deaths & Disabilities. Focused, collaborative efforts to address clinical performance gaps among delivery systems and medical groups for the critical risk factors of control of cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar can reduce risk of death and disability from strokes, heart attacks and diabetes. In addition to managing these cardiovascular indicators among patients already engaged with the health care system, we must redouble our efforts to find and treat the vulnerable through proactive screening and outreach to help close the disparities in cardiovascular health that exist particularly for high risk racial and ethnic groups such as African Americans and those from India/South Asia.
