His work has appeared on Newsweek.com, Slate.com, CBSNews.com, MotherJones.com, DailyKos.com and NPR’s web site. Fiore’s political animation has appeared on CNN, Frontline, Bill Moyers Journal, Salon.com and cable and broadcast outlets across the globe.\r\n\r\nBeginning his professional life by drawing traditional political cartoons for newspapers, Fiore’s work appeared in publications ranging from the Washington Post to the Los Angeles Times. In the late 1990s, he began to experiment with animating political cartoons and, after a short stint at the San Jose Mercury News as their staff cartoonist, Fiore devoted all his energies to animation.\r\nGrowing up in California, Fiore also spent a good portion of his life in the backwoods of Idaho. It was this combination that shaped him politically.

surveillance equipment for local businesses.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The increase in crime and the violent nature of some of those crimes over the past several months is just unacceptable,” Councilmember

postID=news_11927904,news_11961636,forum_2010101890809,news_11928655]Crime rates in Oakland are significantly lower than they were throughout much of the 1990s and at a peak in 2012. But there has been a more recent uptick that’s put many residents on edge, including a 17% increase in violent incidents such as homicide and aggravated assault compared to this time last year, and a 44% increase in burglary and other property crimes, according to \u003ca href=\"https://cityofoakland2.app.box.com/s/sjiq7usfy27gy9dfe51hp8arz5l1ixad/file/1280647384290\">the city’s police department (PDF)\u003c/a>. The rate of vehicle theft in the city has also nearly doubled since before the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among its numerous goals, the broad public safety resolution orders the city administrator to produce a report outlining possible measures the city can take to address its short-staffed 911 dispatch center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Oakland needs to fill at least 16 vacancies for 911 dispatchers, a position that offers a competitive salary — about $110,000 annually — but is emotionally draining work, with high rates of turnover.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2020, an Alameda County Grand Jury found that the Oakland Police Department was \u003ca href=\"https://grandjury.acgov.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/01/city-of-oakland-response-1.pdf\">not answering emergency calls fast enough and was failing to adhere to state standards (PDF)\u003c/a>, which dictate that 95% of a department’s 911 calls be answered within 15 seconds. A 2022 report shows that Oakland’s emergency communication center only \u003ca href=\"https://grandjury.acgov.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/2022-23-GJ-Full-Report-Consolodated.pdf\">responded to about half of its calls within that time window (PDF)\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resolution also calls for recommendations on ways the city could create and implement a new grant program for small businesses looking to purchase security cameras.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In addition, Tuesday’s vote requires the city to evaluate and report on its \u003ca href=\"https://www.oaklandca.gov/topics/oaklands-ceasefire-strategy\">CeaseFire program\u003c/a> and other public safety programs, like the Mobile Assistance Community Responders of Oakland (MACRO), which dispatches mental health workers to handle certain non-violent 911 calls in an effort to free up police officers for more dangerous situations and divert them from incidents that may be better handled by mental health experts. Additionally, the vote requires the city administrator to do a cost-benefit analysis of the city’s walking beat officers and non-police ambassadors.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The resolution also calls for legislation to create and fund an abbreviated police academy, also known as lateral police academies, in the current budget cycle, in order to “get some experienced officers in place more quickly than it takes with brand new officers, which takes a long, long time,” Kalb said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While nearly every council member supported the resolution, some members of the public called in to say they disagreed with the fast-tracked police academy idea.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Tuesday night’s city council meeting, Oakland interim police chief Darren Alison stated that the lateral police academies “have not been wildly successful in the past.” He cited a past example where the Oakland Police Department ran one such academy. The program brought in 22 applicants, and none were successfully hired.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kalb’s resolution is also looking for additional support from federal agencies, like the FBI, to assist Oakland in investigating unsolved homicides and shootings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>However, at 714 sworn officers, Oakland currently has more police than it’s ever had, Thao recently told KQED. In addition, she said, the governor has assigned six additional California Highway Patrol officers to work with the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Other public speakers and council members expressed concern over the focus on adding police instead of meeting basic needs and addressing the underlying reasons why robberies and other crimes have increased recently.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The child tax credit ended, food stamps in California were slashed,” said Councilmember Carroll Fife. “What we need to do is make people feel safe by making sure their everyday needs are taken care of.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Misty Cross, a mother and member of the Moms of Magnolia Street housing activist group, said to the council, “We got to talk about the issues that are creating this.

This comes after several recent homicides, including \u003ca href=\"https://www.eastbaytimes.com/2023/09/16/mother-of-two-killed-by-stray-bullet-in-oakland-friday-night/\">a mother of two who was shot and killed\u003c/a> by a stray bullet on Friday night as she sat on a couch in her Laurel District home.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor, however, admitted that the city recently \u003ca href=\"https://oaklandside.org/2023/09/15/oakland-misses-state-grant-retail-theft/\">missed a key deadline\u003c/a> to apply for potentially millions of dollars in \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11961449/california-targets-smash-and-grabs-with-267-million-program-aimed-at-brazen-store-thefts\">state funding to help combat retail theft\u003c/a>.

But approving it, he added, would at least \"move the negotiations forward\" and increase the odds of the team remaining in Oakland.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"And I want to be open to that, even though I have reservations about this site and some skepticism about whether it's actually going to happen or not,\" Kalb said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"oakland-as\"]The approved term sheet allows both parties to continue negotiating, with no set deadline, although pressure to make a deal is mounting quickly after years of often tense negotiations between the team and the city.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The A's recently \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11873231/mlb-tells-oakland-athletics-to-explore-relocation-if-no-new-ballpark\">received permission from Major League Baseball to start looking at other markets\u003c/a> if a deal with Oakland can't be reached, and have already met with officials in Las Vegas. Failing an agreement with the city, they would be the third professional sports team to leave Oakland since 2019 — following the departure of the Warriors and the Raiders.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>During the meeting, Councilmember Carroll Fife, who represents the district where the proposed development would be, voiced her frustration with the A's, following Kaval's initial rejection of the proposal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I'm not exactly sure why we're even here today,\" said Fife, who ultimately abstained from voting. \"If the A's are not happy with what was produced today and are still talking about leaving — after the city has bent over backwards and provided some of their best work in the interest of Oakland residents and come up with all of these concessions, even about how these wealthy owners don't have to pay for off-site infrastructure — I don't know where we go from here.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The proposed project includes a privately financed $1 billion 35,000-seat ballpark at Howard Terminal, along with a village surrounding the stadium that the city says will be paid for through regional, state and federal funds. The development would include 3,000 housing units, over 1 million square feet of commercial and retail space, hotel rooms, an indoor performance venue and 18 acres of open space.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Standing at the windy waterfront site of the proposed mega-development, Mayor Libby Schaaf on Wednesday morning championed the new plan, calling it a win-win for the city and team.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://twitter.com/LibbySchaaf/status/1417928479555735555\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"What the City Council approved yesterday is not just one of the most iconic ballparks that the world will ever see, but an entire, beautiful community-serving ballpark district,\" Schaaf said. \"A new neighborhood, with amazing union jobs, public parks, affordable housing and safety improvements.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She also promised the plan would create significant tax revenue, ensuring the project's financial viability, unlike past sports deals gone bad; Oakland is still paying off the bonds that financed the remodeling of the Coliseum for the Raiders' return in 1995.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are doing everything within our power to move this process along in a way that is not just great for the A’s and our A’s fans and the community, but also responsible to the taxpayers,\" she said. \"We are never going to do a Raiders deal again.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The team’s lease at the aging Oakland Coliseum in East Oakland runs through 2024. The league has said rebuilding at the current location is not a viable option.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Several Coliseum employees were among the throngs of residents who called in during the public comment period at Tuesday's meeting.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Those jobs are very important to us. We got a lot of seniors that work here like myself.

It was completely to highlight the fact that we believe that housing should not be a commodity. It should not be something that is sold to the highest bidder. And if you do not have the wherewithal to compete in the process of acquiring housing, then you are out of luck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We're seeing the ramifications of that throughout not just Oakland, but the state of California and the world, really. So we say that housing should be a right and everyone should have access to it, just like they have access to clean water, public education and all of the things that are necessary to build a basic and decent life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So, you're talking about changing the whole nature of what you call the commodification of housing and moving more toward housing for low-and, frankly, no-income people?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right. There are many people that are unable to work and have no income. There are seniors who cannot work and can't earn the money that is necessary to afford to live here. There are people who are disabled permanently, who are born that way or through any situation that leads to disability, just unable to earn income. So are we saying that they shouldn't have housing because they can't afford to to live here?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That is one of the primary reasons that housing should be a human right. We have foster children. We have young people that are in college; so many people that are barred from having a safe, affordable place to stay because they just do not earn the money necessary. And even working people are out of reach for most of the housing that we see that's coming onto the market here, [and] that's on the market. There's a huge problem with our entire paradigm. And we need to shift unless we want to continue to see the outcomes that we're seeing with tent cities under every overpass and every street. And it's just untenable at this moment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now the home prices are increasing in the Bay Area and we're going to see an end to [eviction] moratoriums soon. And it's just a problem that is insurmountable unless we do something completely different than what we've been doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How do you implement this? Would you demand, for example, a mandate that 20% of new housing be affordable housing?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I would like to see is us put our best thinking towards what it would look like to make housing a human right. That includes people that are, to me, not necessarily doing as much as they possibly could. I think we need all of our best thinking from our developers, from our affordable housing community, from housing rights organizations. Right now, we have public land that could be utilized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What you're speaking of, the 20% and private developments: I do believe that we all need to do more, especially market-rate housing developers who have been paying impact fees, who've reached out to me even before this election. Like, 'Carroll, can you help us with a campaign? Because we've been paying impact fees and we don't know where they're going. We don't know how much is in the impact fee fund.' So it's not just a failure, according to me, it's a failure across the board from every spectrum of individual that's engaged in housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you also talking about an end to real estate speculation as we've come to know it, and things like rent strikes?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speculation hurts residents. Speculation harms entire communities and entire neighborhoods. When people are engaged in buying up residential property for the sole purpose of flipping it and making as much money as they can, then that leaves out an entire group of individuals who cannot compete in that type of market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that's had a specific impact on Black people in the city of Oakland. And it's had a drastic impact on the district that I live in, where speculators, including Wedgwood — the LLC that bought Mom's house — buys properties in bulk. They buy 200 to 300 homes per month for the purpose of speculation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think that there should be regulation on that type of behavior. I think that's what's causing displacement and gentrification, and really, racialized displacement. As you've said on your show, 70% of Oakland's homeless population is Black. That is not a coincidence; it is directly tied to our housing policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"related coverage\" tag=\"moms-4-housing\"]\u003cstrong>Can you talk about your support for expanding rent control, particularly in light of California voters rejecting Proposition 21, which could have helped expand it? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor [Libby Schaaf] and the outgoing city councilmember [McElhaney], are far more moderate on their views around rental protections, particularly rent control. They are part of a waning chorus of detractors for rent control. Because the reality is ... the state of California and the residents and the voters of California overwhelmingly supported affordable housing.

It was completely to highlight the fact that we believe that housing should not be a commodity. It should not be something that is sold to the highest bidder. And if you do not have the wherewithal to compete in the process of acquiring housing, then you are out of luck.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>We're seeing the ramifications of that throughout not just Oakland, but the state of California and the world, really. So we say that housing should be a right and everyone should have access to it, just like they have access to clean water, public education and all of the things that are necessary to build a basic and decent life.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>So, you're talking about changing the whole nature of what you call the commodification of housing and moving more toward housing for low-and, frankly, no-income people?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Right. There are many people that are unable to work and have no income. There are seniors who cannot work and can't earn the money that is necessary to afford to live here. There are people who are disabled permanently, who are born that way or through any situation that leads to disability, just unable to earn income. So are we saying that they shouldn't have housing because they can't afford to to live here?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"ad","attributes":{"named":{"label":"fullwidth"},"numeric":["fullwidth"]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That is one of the primary reasons that housing should be a human right. We have foster children. We have young people that are in college; so many people that are barred from having a safe, affordable place to stay because they just do not earn the money necessary. And even working people are out of reach for most of the housing that we see that's coming onto the market here, [and] that's on the market. There's a huge problem with our entire paradigm. And we need to shift unless we want to continue to see the outcomes that we're seeing with tent cities under every overpass and every street. And it's just untenable at this moment.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And now the home prices are increasing in the Bay Area and we're going to see an end to [eviction] moratoriums soon. And it's just a problem that is insurmountable unless we do something completely different than what we've been doing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>How do you implement this? Would you demand, for example, a mandate that 20% of new housing be affordable housing?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What I would like to see is us put our best thinking towards what it would look like to make housing a human right. That includes people that are, to me, not necessarily doing as much as they possibly could. I think we need all of our best thinking from our developers, from our affordable housing community, from housing rights organizations. Right now, we have public land that could be utilized.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>What you're speaking of, the 20% and private developments: I do believe that we all need to do more, especially market-rate housing developers who have been paying impact fees, who've reached out to me even before this election. Like, 'Carroll, can you help us with a campaign? Because we've been paying impact fees and we don't know where they're going. We don't know how much is in the impact fee fund.' So it's not just a failure, according to me, it's a failure across the board from every spectrum of individual that's engaged in housing development.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Are you also talking about an end to real estate speculation as we've come to know it, and things like rent strikes?\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Speculation hurts residents. Speculation harms entire communities and entire neighborhoods. When people are engaged in buying up residential property for the sole purpose of flipping it and making as much money as they can, then that leaves out an entire group of individuals who cannot compete in that type of market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And that's had a specific impact on Black people in the city of Oakland. And it's had a drastic impact on the district that I live in, where speculators, including Wedgwood — the LLC that bought Mom's house — buys properties in bulk. They buy 200 to 300 homes per month for the purpose of speculation.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>I think that there should be regulation on that type of behavior. I think that's what's causing displacement and gentrification, and really, racialized displacement. As you've said on your show, 70% of Oakland's homeless population is Black. That is not a coincidence; it is directly tied to our housing policies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>","attributes":{"named":{},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"component","content":"","name":"aside","attributes":{"named":{"label":"related coverage ","tag":"moms-4-housing"},"numeric":[]}},{"type":"contentString","content":"\u003cdiv class=\"post-body\">\u003cp>\u003cstrong>Can you talk about your support for expanding rent control, particularly in light of California voters rejecting Proposition 21, which could have helped expand it? \u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The mayor [Libby Schaaf] and the outgoing city councilmember [McElhaney], are far more moderate on their views around rental protections, particularly rent control.
