Action By Action Result 11/27/2018 1 Council and Authorities Concurrent Meeting REPORT TO COUNCIL SUBJECT Action on Responses to City Council Questions related to the Performance Audit entitled “Santa Clara Convention Center and Convention-Visitors Bureau: Restructuring Operations Can Strengthen Accountability, Performance and Revenue” BACKGROUND At the September 18, 2018 Council meeting, TAP International presented the analysis and findings of the performance audit entitled “Santa Clara Convention Center and Convention-Visitors Bureau: Restructuring Operations Can Strengthen Accountability, Performance and Revenue” (Attachment 1). During the September 18 and October 9, 2018 Council meetings, Council requested additional information related to the audit. DISCUSSION In response to Council questions, this report transmits the requested information. Question: What groups received discounts and/or free facility rentals? (Audit Reference - page 38) The requested list of groups receiving partial discounts per fiscal year audited is attached. TAP International provided this information to City using data provided by the Chamber (Attachment 2). The attachment does not detail the nature of the discount. City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 3 Printed on 2/5/2019 powered by Legistar™ File #: 18-1372, Version: 1 By fiscal year audited, Attachment 3 identifies the organizations which received a fully discounted/free rental. TAP International provided the attached information to City using data provided by the Chamber. The attachment does not detail the rationale for the free rental. Question: What were the commissions and incentives paid to Chamber staff? (Audit Reference - page 25 and 26) During the audit period the Chamber paid over $300,000 in commissions and $23,500 in bonus payments that require further review. Attachment 4 provides commissions and bonuses paid by month, quarter, and calendar year, as applicable. Question: Santa Clara Chamber Political Action Committee (PAC) filings of its Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) Reports In response to Council inquiry, the Appointed City Clerk and City Auditor reviewed the Santa Clara Chamber PAC filings of its FPPC Reports on file with the City Clerk’s Office. Based on the review by the Council Appointees, they issued two reports/audits on October 29 and October 31, 2018, respectively (Attachments 5 and 6), which identify potential violations of FPPC report filings. Both reports were forwarded to the FPPC for review and further determination of fines. On November 13, the FPPC issued a letter (Attachment 7) stating that “the Enforcement Division of the Fair Political Practices Commission will investigate the allegation.” The City is contracting with TAP International to audit credit card statements. However, City staff has been reviewing all credit card statements/charges since May 2018. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. FISCAL IMPACT There is no additional cost to the City other than staff time and expenses. COORDINATION This report has been coordinated with the City Attorney’s Office. PUBLIC CONTACT Public contact was made by posting the Council agenda on the City’s official-notice bulletin board outside City Hall Council Chambers. A complete agenda packet is available on the City’s website and in the City Clerk’s Office at least 72 hours prior to a Regular Meeting and 24 hours prior to a Special Meeting. A hard copy of any agenda report may be requested by contacting the City Clerk’s Office at (408) 615-2220, email [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> or at the public information desk at any City of Santa Clara public library.

Currently, a singular, localized weather station collects useful information on patterns that can be used for indicators, yet the data requires manual processing and there is not a system in place to report the findings. The current method of information transfer is in person during weekly meetings which can be ineffective and inconsistent. In continuation of a previous project focused on sharing water quality information, our mobile application acts as a platform for leaders to share valuable weather indicators with members of the community in real time instead of on a weekly basis.

The problem with the current system is that it is designed for wealthier consumers, while less fortunate consumers such as the homeless have different requirements for them. In our researched, we attemepted to reconfigure the android operating system so that it would be more tailored to the homeless. We first researched what features the homeless value in a mobile device.

There are now more displaced people on the planet than there have been since the Second World War. One of the organizations that helps hundreds of thousands of refugees is Jesuit Refugee Service, directed by Thomas Smolich, S.J. M.Div. ’86. “We have had the misperception that the typical refugee leaves home and she is able to go back six months later—when the political situation has calmed down or, in the case of natural disaster, that recovery has begun,” he says.
