Victor Torreano, representing the Building Trades Council and resident of Redwood <br /> City, thanked Council for this program. He would like to see career pathways and <br /> apprenticeships for local workforce as part of the program. <br /> Edward Evans, representative of the Carpenters Union of San Mateo County, thanked <br /> Council for exploring this process, and would like to offer his union's assistance. He <br /> mentioned that other cities are also working on this like South San Francisco. He <br /> advocated for local jobs for local people, more affordable housing, and apprenticeship. <br /> Alex Lantsberg, field representative and research analyst with Smart Cities Prevail, <br /> discussed promoting prevailing wages in communities. He encouraged the need for <br /> more outreach than just (City Council) meetings and would like to see developers hire <br /> local workers through this community process, so that all can see the benefits of hiring <br /> locally. <br /> Council took no action on the matter and Dr. Bell said that he got guidance needed and <br /> will make sure the community is engaged at various levels. The Mayor agreed that it <br /> was a challenge to reach out to everyone, but staff will do its best to be inclusive. <br /> 9. MATTERS OF COUNCIL INTEREST <br /> A.
