But the proceedings got heated even before that, as many city employees vented their frustration and demanded the council delay layoffs.\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://oakland.granicus.com/MediaPlayer.php?view_id=2&clip_id=974\">Watch last night’s heated City Council meeting\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>The mayor’s budget-balancing proposal includes cutting 105 full-time positions. Since some of those jobs are vacant, only about 81 employees would lose their jobs under the plan. The proposal also includes slashing funding by 40% for certain arts programs, for \u003ca href=\"http://www.fairyland.org/\">Children’s Fairyland\u003c/a>, and for the Oakland Zoo, as well as reorganizing certain departments. The proposal leaves funding for libraries, senior services, and sworn police officers intact.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Dwight McElroy, president of SEIU local 1021, asked the council to work harder to involve the community and the unions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We’ve been there to support you in the past, that’s why your reserves are up. So now we’re asking you to support us,” McElroy said. “We want to work with you, we’ve already shown you that.

They say they are collecting money for a new 24-hour day care center for the church, which runs a small K-12 private school.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s going to be under my pastor’s house, and we’re going to put the pastor’s house on top,” said 9-year-old Mekhi Sade Nosakhare, standing in the Downtown Berkeley BART station without an adult present. She said she doesn’t like soliciting donations every night, but if she doesn’t, she gets in trouble with her mother and stepfather, Andrew Lacy, who is one of the pastor’s sons.

At the time, the students also said they were fundraising for a new building, but the TV report raised questions about where the money was actually going. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now, church officials have a \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/75259353/BART-permit\">permit from BART\u003c/a> to raise funds every night from 5 to 8 p.m.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Elizabeth Curry White, the pastor’s ex-wife and mother of Andrew Lacy, said the pastor has been making children raise money for many years, with nothing to show for it.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He tells my sons that he don’t have no money, so they go out there and try to get money,” White said. “He takes all the money and keeps it.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robert Lacy, the church’s 79-year-old founder, sometimes watches silently in the background as his own young children solicit money. One of them, Cloella Lacy, 16, said that if they don’t each collect about $50 or $75 in a night, they could get detention. Another, 12-year-old Moses Lacy, said he likes collecting money because “it gives me a mind to want to look into people’s eyes and get donations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both children were interviewed while they solicited donations at the Rockridge BART station without adult supervision. The pastor, who arrived later, declined to answer questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not going to tell you about it because you are a reporter, and we don’t want to get into no lawsuit with you,” Robert Lacy said. “BART gave us privilege to come out here. That’s all you need to know. … Leave me alone now before I call the police on you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials at St. Andrew did not respond to phone calls or e-mails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said she recently took her grandson away from the church so he wouldn’t have to solicit money at night. The grandson, she said, was told that if he didn’t raise at least $100 in a night, he would get bad grades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the Oakland Unified School District approved payments totaling $72,700 to St. Andrew school officials for teacher training and student support since October 2009. \u003ca href=\"http://ousd.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=667334&GUID=F29FBD18-CD78-4A6C-BFDE-22D03780A982\">One of the pastor’s sons, Robert Lacy Jr., received $19,100\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money comes from federal funding that public school districts must, by law, share with private schools. The district has little say over who receives the funds, said district spokesman Troy Flint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Organizations like St. Andrew face minimal oversight. Unlike other charities, churches don’t have to file with the state attorney general or the Internal Revenue Service. The California Department of Education doesn’t regulate private schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The minimum age for such soliciting in California is 6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Alameda County Social Services Agency, which investigates allegations of child abuse, has not investigated the church or school, said spokeswoman Sylvia Soublet. “The only time we can go out and investigate is when we have a specific allegation for a specific child,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said the church hasn’t been remodeled or expanded in decades. Currently, no construction permits have been requested from the city of Oakland for the pastor’s or church’s addresses, according to the city’s community and economic development agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robert Lacy brought the church to its current West Oakland location in 1978. He has a history of financial problems, filing for bankruptcy in 1996 under the name Robeth Lacy and again in 2003 as Robert Lacy, both times using the same Social Security number. He and his adult sons have been sued over various financial issues, including unpaid rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2007, Robert Lacy pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of theft of government money. He failed to notify the Social Security Administration of his father’s death and personally took about $17,000 in Social Security payments sent to his father’s account after he had died, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/75260583/Lacy-Plea-Agreement\">proposed plea agreement\u003c/a>. Robert Lacy also failed to report family property that made him ineligible to receive about $22,000 in government assistance, according to the agreement. He \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/75263961/Amended-Judgment\">had to pay back the money\u003c/a> through deductions to his monthly government checks and was given three years’ probation and a $1,000 fine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought he was a very nice guy when I met him,” said Peter Clerides, his defense attorney in that case. “He didn’t strike me as someone who would intentionally be involved in anything that was beyond the letter of the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The church filed for bankruptcy in 2004. At the time, it was facing a lawsuit brought by the mother of a former student who, when she was four 4 years old, was allegedly mauled and disfigured by a Rottweiler at the school in 1993.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit claimed the dog belonged to Andrew Lacy, the pastor’s son, but the Lacys denied ownership. The church wrote in court filings that the injured girl and her mother “had full knowledge of all the risks, dangers and hazards, if any there were” and “failed to use that degree of care and caution for their own safety which a reasonably prudent person would have used.” The church settled the dispute for $70,000 in 2006, according to court records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, in 2004, Alameda County obtained a $13,000 court judgment against Andrew Lacy. According to court filings, Andrew Lacy admitted that he “fraudulently received public assistance benefits” from the county “by submitting false written statements under penalty of perjury.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of 2004, the church served a congregation of 50 people, had an unpaid staff, and survived on donations and fundraising, according to an interview with a church representative as part of the bankruptcy proceeding. The school had 20 or fewer students and emphasized Bible training, according to the interview. That same year, however, the church reported to the state that it had 195 students, the same number it reported this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bankruptcy trustee attorney found that the church brought in a total of $47,129 after more than a year in bankruptcy and that it had a negative cash balance and bad check fees. A bankruptcy judge dismissed the church’s case when it failed to submit filings on time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other creditors, the church owed money to the Alameda County Community Food Bank. Agencies like soup kitchens and churches that distribute for the food bank pay a small fee that helps cover costs. St. Andrew owed about $1,000, a relatively large debt, said food bank spokesman Michael Altfest. The food bank had to write it off as bad debt and no longer partners with St. Andrew, Altfest said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland resident Deborah Carney said she enrolled her daughter at St. Andrew a couple of years ago because the pastor initially seemed to understand her child’s learning needs. But Carney pulled her daughter from the program, she said, because the church was making her solicit money until late at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the teachers said, ‘You’re not leaving until you make my money,’ ” Carney said. “It would be like 10, 11 o’clock at night when they got home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Carney tried to exempt her daughter from the fundraising, she said the pastor refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was like, ‘No. You can’t give her permission. She can’t leave,’ ” Carney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carney said church officials also pressured her to attend services as a condition of her daughter’s enrollment. She said the congregation appeared to be made up mostly of the pastor’s family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White, the pastor’s ex-wife, said she is concerned about the children who attend St. Andrew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I worry about them, ’cause I know how he did me and my kids,” she said. “But there’s nothing I can do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Will Evans is an investigative reporter for California Watch, a project of the non-profit Center for Investigative Reporting.

One of them, Cloella Lacy, 16, said that if they don’t each collect about $50 or $75 in a night, they could get detention. Another, 12-year-old Moses Lacy, said he likes collecting money because “it gives me a mind to want to look into people’s eyes and get donations.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Both children were interviewed while they solicited donations at the Rockridge BART station without adult supervision. The pastor, who arrived later, declined to answer questions.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m not going to tell you about it because you are a reporter, and we don’t want to get into no lawsuit with you,” Robert Lacy said. “BART gave us privilege to come out here. That’s all you need to know. … Leave me alone now before I call the police on you.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Officials at St. Andrew did not respond to phone calls or e-mails.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said she recently took her grandson away from the church so he wouldn’t have to solicit money at night. The grandson, she said, was told that if he didn’t raise at least $100 in a night, he would get bad grades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Meanwhile, the Oakland Unified School District approved payments totaling $72,700 to St. Andrew school officials for teacher training and student support since October 2009. \u003ca href=\"http://ousd.legistar.com/LegislationDetail.aspx?ID=667334&GUID=F29FBD18-CD78-4A6C-BFDE-22D03780A982\">One of the pastor’s sons, Robert Lacy Jr., received $19,100\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The money comes from federal funding that public school districts must, by law, share with private schools. The district has little say over who receives the funds, said district spokesman Troy Flint.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Organizations like St. Andrew face minimal oversight. Unlike other charities, churches don’t have to file with the state attorney general or the Internal Revenue Service. The California Department of Education doesn’t regulate private schools.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The minimum age for such soliciting in California is 6.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Alameda County Social Services Agency, which investigates allegations of child abuse, has not investigated the church or school, said spokeswoman Sylvia Soublet. “The only time we can go out and investigate is when we have a specific allegation for a specific child,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White said the church hasn’t been remodeled or expanded in decades. Currently, no construction permits have been requested from the city of Oakland for the pastor’s or church’s addresses, according to the city’s community and economic development agency.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Robert Lacy brought the church to its current West Oakland location in 1978. He has a history of financial problems, filing for bankruptcy in 1996 under the name Robeth Lacy and again in 2003 as Robert Lacy, both times using the same Social Security number. He and his adult sons have been sued over various financial issues, including unpaid rent.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2007, Robert Lacy pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of theft of government money. He failed to notify the Social Security Administration of his father’s death and personally took about $17,000 in Social Security payments sent to his father’s account after he had died, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/75260583/Lacy-Plea-Agreement\">proposed plea agreement\u003c/a>. Robert Lacy also failed to report family property that made him ineligible to receive about $22,000 in government assistance, according to the agreement. He \u003ca href=\"http://www.scribd.com/doc/75263961/Amended-Judgment\">had to pay back the money\u003c/a> through deductions to his monthly government checks and was given three years’ probation and a $1,000 fine.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I thought he was a very nice guy when I met him,” said Peter Clerides, his defense attorney in that case. “He didn’t strike me as someone who would intentionally be involved in anything that was beyond the letter of the law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The church filed for bankruptcy in 2004. At the time, it was facing a lawsuit brought by the mother of a former student who, when she was four 4 years old, was allegedly mauled and disfigured by a Rottweiler at the school in 1993.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit claimed the dog belonged to Andrew Lacy, the pastor’s son, but the Lacys denied ownership. The church wrote in court filings that the injured girl and her mother “had full knowledge of all the risks, dangers and hazards, if any there were” and “failed to use that degree of care and caution for their own safety which a reasonably prudent person would have used.” The church settled the dispute for $70,000 in 2006, according to court records.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Separately, in 2004, Alameda County obtained a $13,000 court judgment against Andrew Lacy. According to court filings, Andrew Lacy admitted that he “fraudulently received public assistance benefits” from the county “by submitting false written statements under penalty of perjury.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As of 2004, the church served a congregation of 50 people, had an unpaid staff, and survived on donations and fundraising, according to an interview with a church representative as part of the bankruptcy proceeding. The school had 20 or fewer students and emphasized Bible training, according to the interview. That same year, however, the church reported to the state that it had 195 students, the same number it reported this year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A bankruptcy trustee attorney found that the church brought in a total of $47,129 after more than a year in bankruptcy and that it had a negative cash balance and bad check fees. A bankruptcy judge dismissed the church’s case when it failed to submit filings on time.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among other creditors, the church owed money to the Alameda County Community Food Bank. Agencies like soup kitchens and churches that distribute for the food bank pay a small fee that helps cover costs. St. Andrew owed about $1,000, a relatively large debt, said food bank spokesman Michael Altfest. The food bank had to write it off as bad debt and no longer partners with St. Andrew, Altfest said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland resident Deborah Carney said she enrolled her daughter at St. Andrew a couple of years ago because the pastor initially seemed to understand her child’s learning needs. But Carney pulled her daughter from the program, she said, because the church was making her solicit money until late at night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“One of the teachers said, ‘You’re not leaving until you make my money,’ ” Carney said. “It would be like 10, 11 o’clock at night when they got home.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When Carney tried to exempt her daughter from the fundraising, she said the pastor refused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“He was like, ‘No. You can’t give her permission. She can’t leave,’ ” Carney said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Carney said church officials also pressured her to attend services as a condition of her daughter’s enrollment. She said the congregation appeared to be made up mostly of the pastor’s family members.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>White, the pastor’s ex-wife, said she is concerned about the children who attend St. Andrew.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I worry about them, ’cause I know how he did me and my kids,” she said. “But there’s nothing I can do.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The two of them talked by phone last Wednesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to plugging a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandgrown.org/gift-card/\">new gift card that can be used at multiple local Oakland businesses\u003c/a> and reflecting on how to get the economy going, Quan talked about the \u003ca href=\"http://recallquan.com/\">effort by some to recall her\u003c/a> and the impact of the Occupy movement. Here are some of the highlights:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A poll showed your approval rating at 16%. Does that affect your ability to govern?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis is a very tough job I have I can’t worry about the day to day polls…it’s we just have too much at stake. I haven’t had the time really to sit down with my family and talk about the long term politics. We just want, the holiday season is particularly important to any city. We want to get the economy going to as well as we can to help all the residents of the city.\u003cbr>\n\u003c!--more-->\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Are you taking the effort to recall you seriously?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI think I have to take everything seriously. I hear that sour grapes of certain candidates that lost in the past might be funding the signatures. I think that’s a shame. What I’m hearing is even some business people who might not have liked what happened in occupy, they’re happy now, they want the city to get back to business. A recall can be very divisive and it can be very time, energy and money consuming, so most business people I’ve talked to have said they’re not supporting the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some of the ways you’re trying to drum up support for downtown merchants in Oakland?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAs you know the Oakland economy has been pretty hard hit like most of the Bay Area, and the downtown demonstrations have particularly hit our downtown merchants, even Chinatown which is nowhere near downtown tells us that they had 40% drop off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what we’re hoping to do is remind people that Oakland has 40 unique and distcint neighborhoods and invite them to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A lot of the merchants, though, are still pretty angry at the handling of the protests and feel business has gone down and really blame you. How are you going to win those people back? \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI get beat up from both sides. There are people who thought we could leave [the occupiers]. And then there are those who thought I should have taken them out on the first day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think most of us across the country, the mayors who have had to deal with this, we didn’t know quite what to expect. When the camps first started they were mostly peaceful and positive palces. But by the second week in many cities, because of the problems urban palces have with the homeless with mentally ill people, and unfortunately in the Bay Area we have very negative archist group that likes to fight the police and wouldn’t work this the city…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think by taking the time, particularly the second time, to talk with the demonstrators, particularly those who wanted to be peaceful and to work with our churches and our comunty groups I think you’ve had a final resolution that’s been more peaceful and more lasting than some fo the other cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland last weekend had three different events that had nothing to do with the encampment around the 99%. I think the movement is going to move on from the encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you negotiating with Occupy protestors now?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI wish that I could negotiate with so called Occupy Oakland. I mean we’re one of the few cities where, I think because the anarchist element was in general assembly, that they refused to meet with the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the movement is still learning and growing. I’ve been very supportive, some of my old SEIU friends are going to Washington and that’s where I think they need to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think we should be encouraging people to go to Washington and camp out in the mall because of the jobs bill. I think that’s where the target would be better aimed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayors of big cities like ours are just having a hard time doing the balance because of the economic impact. For Oakland it was also just the drain on the services. The day we had the big demonstration we had to pull police out ofthe neighborhoods. That day the shootings were the highest of all year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People have to be more thoughtful about their strategies. I don’t think they intended to hurt the economy but they have. I don’t think they intended to draw services away from communities that need them, but they did.\u003c/p>\n\n",

The two of them talked by phone last Wednesday. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition to plugging a \u003ca href=\"http://www.oaklandgrown.org/gift-card/\">new gift card that can be used at multiple local Oakland businesses\u003c/a> and reflecting on how to get the economy going, Quan talked about the \u003ca href=\"http://recallquan.com/\">effort by some to recall her\u003c/a> and the impact of the Occupy movement. Here are some of the highlights:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>A poll showed your approval rating at 16%. Does that affect your ability to govern?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nThis is a very tough job I have I can’t worry about the day to day polls…it’s we just have too much at stake. I haven’t had the time really to sit down with my family and talk about the long term politics. We just want, the holiday season is particularly important to any city. We want to get the economy going to as well as we can to help all the residents of the city.\u003cbr>\n\u003c!--more-->\u003cbr>\n\u003cstrong>Are you taking the effort to recall you seriously?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI think I have to take everything seriously. I hear that sour grapes of certain candidates that lost in the past might be funding the signatures. I think that’s a shame. What I’m hearing is even some business people who might not have liked what happened in occupy, they’re happy now, they want the city to get back to business. A recall can be very divisive and it can be very time, energy and money consuming, so most business people I’ve talked to have said they’re not supporting the recall.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are some of the ways you’re trying to drum up support for downtown merchants in Oakland?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nAs you know the Oakland economy has been pretty hard hit like most of the Bay Area, and the downtown demonstrations have particularly hit our downtown merchants, even Chinatown which is nowhere near downtown tells us that they had 40% drop off.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So what we’re hoping to do is remind people that Oakland has 40 unique and distcint neighborhoods and invite them to come.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

How are you going to win those people back? \u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI get beat up from both sides. There are people who thought we could leave [the occupiers]. And then there are those who thought I should have taken them out on the first day.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think most of us across the country, the mayors who have had to deal with this, we didn’t know quite what to expect. When the camps first started they were mostly peaceful and positive palces. But by the second week in many cities, because of the problems urban palces have with the homeless with mentally ill people, and unfortunately in the Bay Area we have very negative archist group that likes to fight the police and wouldn’t work this the city…\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think by taking the time, particularly the second time, to talk with the demonstrators, particularly those who wanted to be peaceful and to work with our churches and our comunty groups I think you’ve had a final resolution that’s been more peaceful and more lasting than some fo the other cities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland last weekend had three different events that had nothing to do with the encampment around the 99%. I think the movement is going to move on from the encampments.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you negotiating with Occupy protestors now?\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>\nI wish that I could negotiate with so called Occupy Oakland. I mean we’re one of the few cities where, I think because the anarchist element was in general assembly, that they refused to meet with the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the movement is still learning and growing. I’ve been very supportive, some of my old SEIU friends are going to Washington and that’s where I think they need to be.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think we should be encouraging people to go to Washington and camp out in the mall because of the jobs bill. I think that’s where the target would be better aimed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Mayors of big cities like ours are just having a hard time doing the balance because of the economic impact. For Oakland it was also just the drain on the services. The day we had the big demonstration we had to pull police out ofthe neighborhoods. That day the shootings were the highest of all year.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>People have to be more thoughtful about their strategies. I don’t think they intended to hurt the economy but they have. I don’t think they intended to draw services away from communities that need them, but they did.\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Still, Quan is only one year into a four-year term. Crisis communications consultant Chris Lehane — who knows from political low points (think Monica Lewinsky. He helped manage that scandal in the Clinton White House) — \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/11/07/interview-political-consultant-chris-lehane-on-how-big-city-mayors-should-handle-occupy-wall-street-protests/\">told Scott Shafer last week\u003c/a> that Quan can still come back from the Occupy Oakland crisis.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think ultimately people in these positions will be evaluated over the long term,” Lehane said. “She’s apologized, which is important, particularly for politicians, who almost never apologize. This situation is so big, there’s going to be little she can do in the day to day. Politicians have to realize you’re not going to immediately come back, they have to have a long-term strategy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Given her history, that she came up through community activism, she’s someone who can step up with an interesting policy or program and seize the moment in a positive way.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yesterday, KQED’s Joshua Johnson interviewed Quan fresh off her defeat on Measure I, a $60 million parcel tax that would have been used for a range of services related to public safety, city services, and infrastructure needs. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One thing in particular I found interesting about the mayor’s answers, as well as those she gave in a recent \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2011/11/09/mayor-quan-on-all-things-considered-weve-got-the-extended-interview/\">national interview with NPR\u003c/a>, is how sympathetic she appears to be to the Occupy movement’s goals and even its internal processes, going so far in the NPR segment as to explain in detail the reasoning behind the Occupy Oakland general assembly’s refusal to let her address the encampment. To which All Things Considered correspondent Martin Kaste said, almost incredulously, “but you’re the mayor!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is Joshua Johnson’s interview. A transcript follows the audio. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/11/quanjohnson.mp3\">\u003cstrong>Audio: Jean Quan on Failure of Measure I, Occupy Oakland, and the City’s Economy\u003c/strong>\u003c/a>\u003cbr>\n[audio:http://ww2.kqed.org/news/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2011/11/quanjohnson.mp3|titles=quanjohnson]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>What are your thoughts on the outcome of the Measure I election? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>It’s not surprising. Even the San Francisco tax measures went down. In Oakland we’ve been a little distracted so the people who normally would have been out there campaigning for this didn’t have much time to work for it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it means we will not be able to restore some of the services we cut. At the beginning of the year I put out several options, including an all-cuts budget. Luckily the employees of the city gave back 10 %., undertaking for the first time major pension reform relief in the city. Even the police are now paying into their pension. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We could have restored some of the cuts, some full-time senior programs, some road and tree people, some park maintenance people, to add and upgrade our technology at the libraries, which needs constant funding to keep the internet and other services going. And probably most importantly for Oaklanders, it was going to allow us the extra money for police recruitment and training. The baby boomers are retiring and the replacement of police officers are probably the most expensive cost. It costs us about 100k to train and recruit new police officers. With boomers retiring at a higher rate, we really don’t necessarily have enough money right now to keep up with that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My biggest hope is that the economy in Oakland swings up a bit. We’re hoping to make a couple of good announcements on new projects in Oakland and eventually we’ll be able to cover that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>It seems like all of this has been something of a double whammy. You’ve got the Occupy protesters which scared off some business….\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, we had this perfect storm. I think it would have been hard to pass Measure I anyway. But we thought we had to try to give Oaklanders a chance to try to step up. It would have been a quarter a day. Otherwise what we have now is an all-cuts budget. We have the potential loss of a couple of businesses downtown. And a lot of small businesses are really hurting. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And you have the cost of Occupy Oakland, which will probably be several million dollars. Luckily for the first time in many years we have a full reserve and it will mean other things won’t get done in the city unfortunately\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Where do you see the opportunity for Oakland to bounce back and keep growing? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland is in the center of the Bay Area and we’re an amazing city. Downtown Oakland is one of the most exciting places in the Bay Area. Just six months ago the New York Times said we have some of the best restaurants in the Bay area. We have a thriving art scene. If you come down on First Friday, you’ll see thousands of people visiting our art galleries and enjoying music and nightclubs downtown. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland was one of the few cities predicted by the Association of Bay Area Governments to continue to grow in jobs and housing over the next decade. I think that’s going to happen. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately there’s a national stereotype about Oakland. But it’s one of the most diverse, exciting cities in the country. We’re going to come back. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have any concerns as to Occupy protesters either at Snow Park or a retrenching at Frank Ogawa?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was very heartened the night we cleared the park that the protesters were very peaceful, that they talked about getting on with the work of the 99%. I’ve been following all the tweets in the different groups; they’re going to start organizing around the school closures in Oakland. I understand there’s going to be some picketing of banks this weekend. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Snow Park people have till Monday; they have a group of people that have been working really hard to find an alternative place. I hear one of the local churches may be willing to work with them. I think we move on, and it could be a model for the rest of the country. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the movement’s gotten diverted on the encampments and across the country they haven’t really been able to contain the crime or the large homeless population and it becomes a whole sap on the resources instead of moving on with the organizing. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland, our winter shelter opened yesterday so we’re hoping that a large number of the homeless that were staying in Frank Ogawa Plaza will be sheltered there for the rest of the winter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nHave you notified Snow Park that Monday is the day to go?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They made a deal with the police chief. All last week we tried to get people to leave. I myself talked to nine or ten of the tents that were in Frank Ogawa Plaza. The police chief gave them a week to find a permanent home. We expect them to be gone by next Monday.\u003c/p>\n\n",

To which All Things Considered correspondent Martin Kaste said, almost incredulously, “but you’re the mayor!” \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Here is Joshua Johnson’s interview.

Even the San Francisco tax measures went down. In Oakland we’ve been a little distracted so the people who normally would have been out there campaigning for this didn’t have much time to work for it. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But it means we will not be able to restore some of the services we cut. At the beginning of the year I put out several options, including an all-cuts budget. Luckily the employees of the city gave back 10 %., undertaking for the first time major pension reform relief in the city. Even the police are now paying into their pension. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We could have restored some of the cuts, some full-time senior programs, some road and tree people, some park maintenance people, to add and upgrade our technology at the libraries, which needs constant funding to keep the internet and other services going. And probably most importantly for Oaklanders, it was going to allow us the extra money for police recruitment and training. The baby boomers are retiring and the replacement of police officers are probably the most expensive cost. It costs us about 100k to train and recruit new police officers. With boomers retiring at a higher rate, we really don’t necessarily have enough money right now to keep up with that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My biggest hope is that the economy in Oakland swings up a bit. We’re hoping to make a couple of good announcements on new projects in Oakland and eventually we’ll be able to cover that. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>It seems like all of this has been something of a double whammy. You’ve got the Occupy protesters which scared off some business….\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yes, we had this perfect storm. I think it would have been hard to pass Measure I anyway. But we thought we had to try to give Oaklanders a chance to try to step up. It would have been a quarter a day. Otherwise what we have now is an all-cuts budget. We have the potential loss of a couple of businesses downtown. And a lot of small businesses are really hurting. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And you have the cost of Occupy Oakland, which will probably be several million dollars. Luckily for the first time in many years we have a full reserve and it will mean other things won’t get done in the city unfortunately\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Where do you see the opportunity for Oakland to bounce back and keep growing? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland is in the center of the Bay Area and we’re an amazing city. Downtown Oakland is one of the most exciting places in the Bay Area. Just six months ago the New York Times said we have some of the best restaurants in the Bay area. We have a thriving art scene. If you come down on First Friday, you’ll see thousands of people visiting our art galleries and enjoying music and nightclubs downtown. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland was one of the few cities predicted by the Association of Bay Area Governments to continue to grow in jobs and housing over the next decade. I think that’s going to happen. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Unfortunately there’s a national stereotype about Oakland. But it’s one of the most diverse, exciting cities in the country. We’re going to come back. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do you have any concerns as to Occupy protesters either at Snow Park or a retrenching at Frank Ogawa?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I was very heartened the night we cleared the park that the protesters were very peaceful, that they talked about getting on with the work of the 99%. I’ve been following all the tweets in the different groups; they’re going to start organizing around the school closures in Oakland. I understand there’s going to be some picketing of banks this weekend. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Snow Park people have till Monday; they have a group of people that have been working really hard to find an alternative place. I hear one of the local churches may be willing to work with them. I think we move on, and it could be a model for the rest of the country. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think the movement’s gotten diverted on the encampments and across the country they haven’t really been able to contain the crime or the large homeless population and it becomes a whole sap on the resources instead of moving on with the organizing. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In Oakland, our winter shelter opened yesterday so we’re hoping that a large number of the homeless that were staying in Frank Ogawa Plaza will be sheltered there for the rest of the winter. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003cbr>\nHave you notified Snow Park that Monday is the day to go?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

When I grew up, on one hand it was BB King and Miles Davis and John Lee Hooker. On the other hand it was Dolores Huerta, Cesar Chavez, Martin Luther King, Jr., and Gandhi, so I just thought both of those dimensions were one. To learn music to heal yourself, your family, and this planet. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Because this planet is sick with fear. We invest so much time and energy and money into the Pentagon, which is the place for fear. We made a difference with Vietnam, we were part of the Black Panthers, we were part of the hippie movement, questioning authority if it’s not enlightened by God. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And we’re still here, the people from Woodstock. We’re still here to ignite the youngest to say don’t be complacent and don’t be ho hum. Without brutality or being vulgar, make a difference. Go out and stop the war. War is not the answer.

My alma mater was the Fillmore. Hanging around with Bill Graham and all the other musicians. What I did learn from here was the principle of caring. Teachers had a lot of passion and were really present with the students. They looked you in the eye and everything else stopped, you mattered. That’s what I take from Mission High School, those teachers who taught me to be 150%, not 50 or 100. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>You’ve given guitars to school, have been very generous. What did you hope to change here? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Fear, brutality, genocide, suicide. Music is harmony and unity. When a person’s not in harmony with themselves, then they do harmful things. If we can change Mission High School, then we can work on Richmond and Oakland and the other schools. If we can integrate spiritual values, without using the word religion, then you would not see so much violence from police to brown people here in San Francisco. Because I’m very aware of the brutality that happens between the police and the people. Trigger happy. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The more you educate people, the more they have a sense of self worth, of value, the more they value other people’s rights, and the more they embrace and feel oneness with their heart and with their light. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Do these kids remind you of yourself?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Absolutely. They’re the architects of tomorrow. It’ll change America to be what it’s supposed to be. America is a social experiment. Right now, we have a spiritual deprivation. We’re pretty good at arrogance. We’re number one at nothing. I don’t say it when I’m in another country but when I come home I can say it because it’s my house. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We need in schools not necessarily Buddha, Krishna, but we need spiritual values.

Said Keith Shannon, who deployed with Scott to Iraq, “Scott was marching with the 99% because he felt corporations and banks had too much control over our government, and that they weren’t being held accountable for their role in the economic downturn, which caused so many people to lose their jobs and their homes.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Scott is currently sedated at a local hospital awaiting examination by a neurosurgeon.
