Also it goes without saying but sometimes it's good to even say things that <br />could otherwise go without saying. <br />The 1DCA decision is final, in my present understanding. Any action would <br />not reach back to change this very unfortunate and huge mis step by <br />Redwood City and its Council and Port, on this discrete issue. <br />However, the assistance I am seeking and shall be seeking from the <br />legislature and the SLC, is the clarification for going forward that will serve <br />Port authorities statewide, AND the commission, in not disturbing the in- <br />place charters and all of the reporting to the SLC that is underway. As you <br />know, Redwood City's port keeps the granted land maps and reports <br />financially and otherwise. <br />The legislative clarification would avoid any other Port having this occur to <br />it, and not disturb "law of the case" but would invalidate "collateral <br />estoppel" and/or "res judicata", which that result (LoC but not the others) <br />is desirable b/c the instances of interference in the future may be far more <br />harmful than waste of taxpayer $ and will also avoid the deep <br />constitutional confusion that Redwood City is in right now, and would take <br />away ANY influence (informal or otherwise) of the drive by 1DCA opinion. <br />Thanks! <br />On Monday, February 22, 2021, 01:41:30 PM PST, alison madden wrote: <br />Hi, Jennifer and Kim, <br />I am asking if it is possible to ask for, and have your agreement to, if the <br />commission will consider it, to allow us to speak for roughly 5 minutes in <br />public comments at the beginning of the SLC meeting? <br />I would like to report back to the SLC on the resolution of the jurisdiction <br />case and ask them to take certain policy and other considerations that <br />involve the continuing consideration of potential legislation as well as <br />support for the following: <br />I cc Mr. Vogel and Tsukamaki so as not to surprise. <br />The 1DCA literally held that PRC sec. 6009.1(c)(13) pre-empts a local <br />charter that purports to create an independent port authority. <br />This holding is clearly erroneous, as every Port authority in the state (L.A., <br />S.F., Oakland, Stockton, San Diego, Long Beach and more) is a fully or <br />semi-independent.

In some cases it is a charter or a joint powers <br />
