Good morning. This meeting will come to order. Welcome to the december 13th of regular meeting of the joint City School District and city college select committee. I am supervisor haney. Madam clerk, will you please call. Do you have announcements . Please silence cell phones. Completed speaker cards should be snu submitted to the clerk. Please call the roll. roll call . Mr. Chair you have a quorum. Thank you. Will you please call the first item. Yes, i seem one. The hearing on the implementation of the affor affe homes for families now and the partnership between the city and county with the San Francisco with the unified School District to finance projects streamlined under the initiative. Before i call up our speakers and give an opportunity for other folks who may provide introductory comments. I want to say this is exactly why this committee exists, to be able to talk about an issue that really cannot happen without all of us in communication and on the same page, and i know that our respective staffs are always in communication. It is important that each of the elected bodies and leaders from city college and the School District and the board of supervisors are discussing, planning, coming to a shared vision of how we are going to address our challenges, and certainly this is a challenge that all of us have been grappling within our respective roles. We had a huge victory in november with the passage of prop e. We want to thank the voters for supporting prop e. This happened because of historic effort by our educators to stand up to say we have been talking about this enough, lets do something about it. Lets come together with policies that are needed to make it happen. I want to recognize the united educators of San Francisco, aft2121 and those who played a key role in this. I want to shout out to supervisor fewer, supervisors mar, peskin and walton and the entire board of supervisors for support. And, of course the City College Board of trustees and board of education for their support. We passed this truly exciting and historic legislation that is going to get more housing built for educators and for people beyond that, and it is going to make a huge defense for folks at city college and sfufd. I know as the former commissioner on the board of education this is something we have been working towards for years and years, and i am excited to see progress soon. We are all aware that the housing crisis could not be mere urgent. We have reached a boiling point where our schools and city college cannot continue to function and do the responsible things they have to deliver for our kids and families without addressing the housing crisis for educators. Today we are going to talk about financing and implementing the educator housing projects to maximize affordability levels and to be complaint with prop e. The perspective this committee will offer with the School District and the city college here and the city here, it is going to be tremendously valuable to what we do moving forward and how we implement this quickly and effectively for the city and educators. I am going to offer an opportunity for anyone who wants to give introductory comments. I want to apologize i have to leave soon and supervisor walton will be taking over as chair of the committee and supervisor mar will join us soon. I know that trustee randolph had a statement to make. Let me call on supervisor walton. I want to briefly state that i love the fact our education institutions are working closely to address one of the major issues that exists in the city, Affordable Housing that we are making sure the educators are housed. This work is important, and i am not sure if other cities can brag and boast about doing this together with their education institutions. I am excited how we move forward. Thank you. Trustee randolph. Yes, thank you, mr. Chair. This is a very exciting day for us here at city college to kind of find out and push along the important project to build housing for our faculty and classified staff. Work force housing in San Francisco is one of the most difficult to find, and it is the forgotten middle of workers in San Francisco. I am excited to take care of the important educators in our city. We dont have a formal presentation, but i want to mention that city college and the board commissioned the Housing Survey of our faculty, staff and students in march of 2019. It showed we have a deep need for housing. About 125 unitses for employees and 693 beds for students. We have already made plans at the ocean campus to develop housing at the current parking lot east of our football field. We also are hoping that through this and other entities we will receive funding and resources to build and start thinking about building housing. As our aging staff is set to retire, especially classified staff, it is important to recruit the next generation of workers at city college. It has been tremendously difficult to recruit staff to work at the city college because they cant move to San Francisco. It is expensive to stay in San Francisco. It is almost impossible. I know the School District faces the problem of recruiting new educatessors and faculty to come and teach at city college. We are blessed a lot of faculty has taught at city college for decades. A lot of them own their homes. The new generation of faculty members starting out cannot afford to live in San Francisco and have to travel often times a lot of distances to come to city college. If you know what the life of an educator is like they have open hours, they meet with students. If they have to spend hours on the freeway getting to and from work, those are hours they are not spending with the students or grading homework so this is critical not only for the wellbeing of our faculty but the productivity and support our students are receiving. I am happy to have this conversation. We talk about creating a homegrown pathway to education. A key component is housing educators in the future. Thank you so much for holding this hearing. Thank you, trustee randolph. A couple thinks. Our clerk is erica major. I had that wrong. I apologized to her. We had it wrong in the script. And linda sharp. I also just want to thank the staff here from s. F. U. S. D. For your hard work. We wouldnt be here if it wasnt for your commitment and the School Districts and city colleges might say this is not what we do, this is not part of our responsibility. For you to be willing to partner with the city and i know sometimes get into the mess that is Politics Around here. I want to thank you for doing that and to recognize as well commissioner who has been leading this work on the board of education. I had the opportunity to read over the resolution you introduced, and i am excited about your leadership and i know, commissioner collins, you support that. We appreciate the leadership you are taking on this, and i want to thank honey and courtney from my staff working hard on this issue for some time as well. With that, i am going to call up our unless there are comments i will call up our first presentation. I want to say while i have the opportunity to do this. We have a number of important things that are going to come in front of this committee in the coming months. I want to appreciate you for your ideas. We have a packed agenda for the spring. I am excited to see the work we will do together. Obviously, i thank sfusd and the Mayors Office of housing and amy and the folks from city college that are here. I will invite up our first presenter who is from sfusd. Are you presenting . Welcome. I think you have the presentation in front of you. I am going to hand the gavel over to supervisor walton. Thank you so much. Thank you for the opportunity to speak today. I am the project lead on educator housing at sfusd i am joined by our chief facility officers from the Mayors Office of Community Development for todays presentation. We will actually have the chief kickoff. We wanted to spend a couple minutes for the committee to hear from us. We know land is extremely valuable. We feel that every day in San Francisco, and we are lucky to have a chief that has been looking at our land and our land as sets for the time she is here and how we can leverage that and how educatetor housing fits with that. Good morning, committee members. Chief facilities officer for sfusd. I want to start off by placing context around the issue we are talking about today and for those who are new to sfusds assets you might be aware the School District is large. To put more specificity around that. Sfusd owns 430acres across 150 school sites within the city and county of San Francisco, and i think as public land committed that is dedicated to accomplish a public mission, the education of San Francisco youth. Real estate you talk about the concept of highest and best use. In our case as Public Agency the highest and best use of the sfusd property is for the benefit of the sfusd students. One of the things i am most excited about is the opportunity to look at sfusds assets from the portfolio perspective and to think about ways to use that strategically to advance educational outcomes. As i looked at it over the past 15 months there are four major uses that emerge from our portfolio right now. The top priority is student goes. School sites are most important way to deliver educational education to kids. In particular as we think about the next year there are interesting parallel policy conversations happening at the board of education around School Assignments that could have real implications for the ways we use the portfolio and think about investing facility dollars as well as the new Campus Program to include mission bay that are in design and Treasure Island and thinking about sites in the bayview. The second piece of that is around staff. I think that includes as we are talking about today educatetor housing and the way to use our land to improve retention and make sure we have the highest quality teachers who are very experienced. It also thinks about the administrative and operational soaces how we think about where the staff are located and in what facilities and does that support the highest quality education to youth . We have a number of partners, both nonprofit and for those not aware sfusd is required to provide land and space for Charter Schools in the city and county of San Francisco. As we think about those spaces, we are pushing for alignment. We are pushing for alignment with the vision and programming our partners offer with sfusds goals and standings to educate kids. That space is provided at a discount but we are getting something in return, which is partners who help u accomplish r mission. We have identified some potential sites and a west field mall which was news when i started the position. Also, the 1235 Mission Property which houses about 600 Human Services agency staff right now. In those instances, our goals are really for positive activation. They do provide revenue for the district on an ongoing basis. These are our four common uses. As we move over the next year not only with School Assignment and with educator housing, we will have a number of opportunities to think about ways to align the way we are using land with values and goals around educating kids. Just wanted to provide some of that context because i think it is important as we move forward in thinking about educator housing and School Assignment policy that they are connected and they will influence and impact each other. We will continue to talk about those impacts and tradeoffs as we move forward with all of the policy discussions. I look forward to having that conversation to all of you. I will turn it back to my colleagues. Thank you. As we now dive into educator housing. The working group and the vision with our properties. We first want to share our deep excitement about the passage of prop a and b. There is a great need for educator housing. We conduct an annual survey of teachers as well as surveys with the paraeducators. We ask about housing and financial security. The annual survey has about a 60 response rate. They provide information to help us guide our educator housing work. As you can see in 2019, the survey said 30 of the teachers said the cost of living in San Francisco as too high is why they located out of temperature bay area and leaving us with sfusd. In 2019 the Teacher Survey said 80 of the teachers are experiencing financial anxiety. That is 10 increase since 2016. These are the other data points we shared in regards to a. M. I. Ranges for teachers and people who consider returning to sfusd if compensation or Affordable Housing options are available in San Francisco. Because of the pressing need to address housing affordabilities for teachers, fud stu sfusd hasn working with the united educators to come up with a multipronged approach. Since they convened in 2014 we have four strategies, one through housing counseling, two, teacher next door and down payment. Three eviction preventionlogical services that started before the implementation of the citys right to council program, four, educator housing. To date we have surveyed and supported hundreds of teachers over the last five years we are now working to set a new target. Quickly, so we can go and look at what has happened in terms of numbers, prior to 2014, 51 households received Teacher Next Door Programs, 38 educators benefited from the down payment assistance loan totaling up to 89 educators. 300 teachers received counseling. This is data that we are gathering outcomes. 41 employees facing eviction. They received legal services. As we go deeper into what we have been doing with our housing program, 134 units are projected to be built at the project and we also issued an r. F. Q. For more educator housing. When we think about educatetor housing and the goal we are thinking about, we are still in the process of working through our policy setting about building 500 units of Affordable Housing not currently met by the market. The resolution will be the key marconcern fomarker to focus onl also. We will pursue opportunities to subsidize for paraeducators at lower a. M. I. Levels. On building educator housing, the fourth strategy, we are excited the Francis Scott key will be the first sight for 134 units. Sfusd will provide the land and the city will provide the gap funding with the 2015 housing prop a bonds. Additionally the project sponsor will apply for federal tax credit for units below 80 a. M. I. The project is in predevelopment phase and has submitted the environmental application. Once it passes, trailing legislation for prop e we will streamline the project approval utilizing prop e and sb35. It will require eligible projects to be approved within six months. That is where we are with that project today. After this experience we have learned many lesson the project. The project was made possible thanks to the support from the city with the support of the large funding gap. We know that 134 units is a great start, it is not enough to meet Affordable Housing of all educators. We began to explore different opportunities to meet the Housing Units as we continue to look at data. We felt that strongly to move forward to continue moving on with additional ways to provide housing for our teachers. That led us to the r. F. Q. Where we directly serving the need that has been shown in our surveys. We ask in the qualification we ask no subsidies. At the time there was not any subsidies and maximizing units for educators. However, since the issuance of the r. F. Q. , we have the passage of prop a and e at 20 million towards educator housing and prop e rezoned sites for educator housing. Now we are made aware we have additional popups that we could pursue on the state levels and the matching funds and state tax credits. Within the board of education since the passage of prop e and a the commissioner has set a new introduced the resolution and has set a new target for us to builded yo educator housing. We will identify prop a 20 million and prop e how we can leverage those two mutuals that we have for us. Then additionally, we will continue to work with what currently what the need is currently pushing for us to push for, which is to build more housing. With that said, we will be looking into in terms of next steps, one, to be able to pass this resolution as being scheduled around in january of 2020. Also, we will be engaging with our qualified developers to be able to do a Feasibility Analysis on prop a and e. We really still want to be data driven. In the spring we will be administering a new qta survey, being able to connect the household levels with our teacher population. A lot of the times the data we receive back is from individual teachers. Housing is more than that. We need to understand household income. With that, this is our really quick brief presentation and we will be happy to answer any questions. First of all, thank you. The only reason i am using first names i do not want to butcher the last name. Colleagues, do you have any questions for the district . Trustee randolph. Yes, thank you. That was an amazing presentation especially coming from city college. It definitely shows the School District has put a lot of time and effort for several years to get to the point where you are able to start thinking about educator housing. I know that city college of San Francisco is still very much in the beginning phases where we need to be. It is encouraging to see how far along you are. It would be great for us to model our pathway and kind of analysis after you so maybe our staff can meet with you to kind of rather than reinventing the wheel. Community college is traditionally never had to think about housing as part of the mission. As we are dealing with affordability crisis in the city and state Community Colleges have to step up and start providing that. On the realm of the fouryear universities to provide that type of service and support, our students can no longer not have housing or staff can no longer not have housing. It is very nice to see a model for us to cultivate and duplicate at city college. Do you know how long it has taken you so far to get to the point where you can go out with r. F. Q. S and start potentially building housing . I know you didnt start just this year, but i know one of the slides said since 2014. Do you think how long the School District has worked on this so far . By conversations and ideas. Francis scott key is not the first site. We had one omission also. It has been going on for a long time. In regards to San Franciscosis t key a lot of the support from the city to say we will try to find city subsidies to be able to make this happen, lets work this out is in the last five years. It does take a while. We know that. We had to also really from the district level to be able to put in to have enough data so the survey had to align. We definitely have seen studies where some districts just leveraged federal tax credits and not able to house educators. We were diligent about our work. Do you have dedicated staff at the School District to just work on this eacher Housing Initiative other than don . We will have more dedicated staff in the near future. Currently it is myself and the deputy superintendent and chief facilities officer on our end. We had so much support from the city side and also input from united educators of San Francisco and housing development. It is a great partnership. We had to have many experts to help us. Thank you for your work. The partnership is really unique to see folks from so many different areas coming together to figure out this challenge. When i started teaching 20 years ago, it steamed unaffordable. Now, i hear the educators dont live in the city and a lot of the educators have to leave. Do you have an estimate how many educators leave each year due to housing concerns . It is based on the exit survey. It is about 30 that we do think have left for that specific reason. Educators leaving . Had stated if you asked them what is the number one reason you are leaving. It also including compensation and other check marks, but those folks chose housing as the issue. As far as just after age salary average salaries, it is a big range paraeducators to experienced teachers to those starting out, wha what is the re we are looking at . Do we have a sense where we are. There are those teaching 10 years with families versus those single living in apartments . What is the range we are looking at . Do you have a sense where we are looking to target. We dont have the range of the household income. That will be administering in the spring. We have the range of teacher income from 80 to 150 a. M. I. They receive about 82,000 now as the average. I cant speak to the a. M. I. I think that is around 100 . I would have to confirm with the Mayors Office. We are looking at folks for paraeducators folks who might qualify for lower Income Housing and that could garner more subsidies and support. Can you talk about the middle income range . It seems to me what are we doing as the city or district . How we approach that challenge . In terms what we have seen from the surveys that the School District administrators, we have seen educator households above the 120 a. M. I. Range. That is a smaller percentage. The 80 range is in the Francis Scott key project that is why we target the 40 to 120 a. M. I. Range. Up to 120 is mid income . Based on our sources that would use, yes, up to 120 a. M. I. What does it look like . Lower Income Housing can qualify for more subsidies, is that correct . How does that work . We are trying to deal with the larger range of folks. How does that make putting the projects together . We have the land but also looking at a math problem in figuring out the different a. M. I. Levels and where to get subsubsidies and the requiremens for the subsidies. Can you speak in relation to moderate income . We have more tools at our disposal to address the needs for housing, lower income from 0 to 80 a. M. I. We can leverage low income tax credits for developing those units. Moderate Income Housing is local subsidy. Units within 81 a. M. I. And above do not leverage tax credits. It takes more local subsidy. That is why prop a are important. We have added both a middle income category within the housing bond. In the 2019 housing bond we had educator housing. The state has also stepped up in recent years to address the missing middle. There are now some possibilities of accessing or applying for competitive funds for mixed Income Program that provides financing for mixed Income Housing up to 120 a. M. I. As well. We see a little bit more resources trying to address the moderate income units. Because we are unable to lever age tax credits it requires more subsidy from the locality from us as the city. Thank you very much. I appreciate that. I want to say i really hope, one of my daughters former babysitters became an educator. She has a family. She is not age to move out of her apartment with a roommate, the father of the child moved in with her. The idea we have educators that want to be able to progress up the salary scale they will make more income. The concern i have for folks that start in the district and want to stay in the district but it becomes harder and harder as they move up the salary scale or they may increase income with partnership with other folks. That is one of the largest challenges we face is trying to meet that large range. I want to say i appreciate the partner ship and the work that the district is doing, don, trying to be creative to figure out this complicated challenge. Thank you. Thank you. This is really, really illuminating. I have gotten some ideas i would love to share with the trustees. I dont think we have a Teacher Next Door Program housing counseling, eviction prevention or down payment assistance loan program. I assume if sfusd does, then we could quite easily. I think that if that alone is the result of this meeting, that is terrific. That could help a lot of teachers. My questions have to do with first of all, and i am assuming there is a very good reason for this. All of the work we did when we were serving with employees and students, and i dont hear us talking about students today. Can you clarify a little bit the strategy you are pursuing is employees. I know there are many home less students at sfusd. Could you clarify your strategy on that. We have been focused mostly on employees. We are hoping that the partnership with the city can as they are also residents of the city as well that we hope that we can work with the city to provide and find housing with them. We do have a lot of our social workers are very much equipped inning the Services Available for our families, specifically. Thank you. My second question is if you could clarify what the r. F. Q. Is. What is it for . Is it for finding Developers Interested in building on your properties . Yes, it was to see if we had qualified developers that would like to go to a joint venture in regards to educator housing. When you put that r. F. Q. Out and i am asking because at 33 goff we have developers working. Is there any thought about including in addition to housing for employees, housing for other people . Is it necessary to have it just the package for housing for employees . Within the r. F. Q. We kept it vague enough to maximize the number of units for educators. We dont know what is possible. With prop a and e and more tools we are going to just explore every kind of possible scenario to work with to see what is feasible. The reason i ask that is because i am a person who likes to be around a lot of different kinds of people. I dont know if i had to live with fellow trustees every day if that would be my ideal situation or if we want to mix it up. I also thought it because you have advantages as you pointed out in terms of speed, you know, with prop e and getting things done in terms of approvals is that a way to get more housing built in San Francisco by partnering . We can be the incentive schools can be incentive for developers to build more housi housing. Do you know if there is any possibility the crossover between what we are able to do because you are trying to build housing for educators and got special approval with that be ported over if the housing is both for educators but also for other people and therefore we can provide more housing . We do want to remember that we want to stay focused for our Educational Mission in terms of what our land is for and what the land is. As long as we can benefit our teachers, students, i think we would be ham happy to look into would be happy to look into what is possible. My directive from the board and the chief facilities officer is to look into how can we maximize our land assets to support our students and teachers and staff . Thank you. That is also the intent of prop e for educators for city college and sfusd, not for any other populations. I do want to say i dont know, i probably would love to live around my colleagues so we could get so much more work done. Thank you. I would like to live next to you. I dont have questions, only comments. We have been on this journey to bring this together for the School District. I want to take my hat off to the current leaders and the folks that paved the way for this to happen. I feel like what we were able to do as leadership is move this along. There is an opportunity for us to really and i will speak about the resolution that is currently in the process. Hats off to our district staff for carrying this work. There is an opportunity for, you know, the School Board Commissioners. I feel like Everyone Needs to do their part, School Board Commissioners as well. A prime opportunity to put policies in place to give the district a direction to move into. My biggest thing is we are in San Francisco, a lot of gentrification. As we embark on this journey i want us to be thoughtful of these things happening and that we are part of the movement that is creating more Affordable Housing for us as educators. It is a greater effort in the city that is pioneered by a lot of folks including folks in the community and people in the building. So the resolution is an opportunity to put us on the course, right . We are on the path of resolution. Right now we are talking about 550 Affordable Housing for educators. We need to stabilize the work force. We have to adjust that. Everyone knows longterm educators in the district is good for kids. We could have other conversations on the side as needed. This resolution is a collective effort of really we cant do this without everyones support. We cannot move forward with building educator housing without everyones support from city hall and the School District. This resolution here is an outcome of that effort. A lot of folks come to the table, and i appreciate everybody who has come to the table. The working group Mayors Office the School District and our commissioners who are a pioneer in this work. The resolution actually and i will bring it back to leadership here at city hall. The resolution is we have to continue as leaders, commissioners and mayor champion the issues. We have to continue guiding the staff in the direction that is going to help us get to where we have to get to. That is one. I am proud of this resolution. When we first started the resolution there was a lot of questions around funding, how to do that. The staff, partners, work group, went out to do a good job of locating how to get all of this done. The resolution calls for an indepth look how to go out and search for funding to make this happen . We are partnering with we met with San Francisco housing educator accelerator. They are great. They are awesome. We are starting to build the team and work group that i feel very confident that we could get these housings built sooner than the resolution actually anticipates. Again, i dont want to belabor the conversation. It is going to take a continued effort from not only the School District but from all of the leadership here in San Francisco to be able to move this forward. I will leave it at that if we want to continue more conversations, we can. Welcome supervisor moore. Any questions from any colleagues . I wanted to add one more. As we go along with the resolution process, we identified educators and are in conversations with sciu. We understand there is more to it than teachers that help move the work forward for schools. We are making, you know, looking at the resolution to include our sciu cussteadyians and cooks so we can support those efforts as well. I just wanted to thank commissioner. I would love to see the resolution. It is in draft form, not quite ready to be shown. When it comes out we would love to see that. Also, and i dont know if this is helpful but in it looks like in november of 2017, we passed the resolution at city college which was more general but i want to point out and it may or may not be useful for you, that was to end food and housing insecurity in city college of San Francisco. It was specifically aimed at transitional age youth population. It is not the educatetor housing type of thing. We recognize at city college that 44 of the student body is made up of transitional age youth. Many of them are not housed, including veterans who come to city college and actually live in their cars because we give a better subsidy in San Francisco subsidy in San Francisco than anywhere else in the state. They want to spend the money on living not housing. They live in the cars and come to city college. If it is helpful we would share this with you since you are working on the resolution right now maybe there is something in there for you. Commissioner collins. I want to echo commissioners comments about none of this would be possible if we werent doing this in partnership. Again, reiterate my appreciation for the commissioners working on this but also at the supervisor level and at the city level and sfusd to support this projected. We are doing work that Francis Scott key. These are things that havent been done and we are getting more resources potentially but still figuring it out and we need that partnership. Is there anything what does the district need from the city and from the supervisors as a body to just for ongoing support for the work that you are doing . We talk on a week league or o weekly or daily basis. They are responsive. The housing crisis is just in front of us and we have to tackle it. A lot of the staff has not been afraid. Our partners, as the commissioner mentioned, we have worked with the San FranciscoHousing Accelerator Fund and groups wanting to come and really figure this out together. At this time i think we need to go back to our group and to understand how we can for them to do a Feasibility Analysis on prop a and e and move the projects forward. I did not mention this. We are very clear about as our chief facilities officer does a lot of her real estate portfolio the educator housing component will not be lost. We have identified three sites and we will focus on those moving forward. Thank you. I want to add one more thing. I think this was for folks getting ready to embark on this with the trustees. I think it was important to put a model in place. The model that, you know, what i believe this is partnership between the community, School District and city hall, you know. Really there was a model out there called the Community Development model which they have been using in Affordable Housing. The one thing able to help us like get to our goals has been the passing of proposition e and resolution calls for current projects to be analyzed to move forward. Thank you so much. Now we will hear from the Mayors Office of housing. We dont have a separate presentation. I am happy to take questions. Do we have any more questions . Seeing none. This is the time for public comment. If you would like to speak on this item, please line up to my left. You have two minutes. Please state your name for the record. Good morning. I am representing sciu local 10 to 1. To give the public and you a general idea who those members are, we work in our schools. Those are your school secretaries, custodians, student nutrition service, cafeteria workers that serve food to the students. Transportation. The Yellow School buses, those are folks in that department and the warehouse workers. We are the glue that keeps schools together. There are educators in the classroom and administrators. Dont forget the rest of the school community. We are integral to making the schools run well, and after speaking with commissioner moliga in the structuring of his resolution which brings structure to the bond measures that the citizens have supported prop a and e. He is working to incorporate our meshes in that process and creating infrastructure to include our members. In you think it is hard for educators and principals to live in San Francisco. Imagine somebody working 3. 5 hours a day. Can they afford to live in San Francisco . Talk about families doubling up, tripling up. Please consider that when you talk about this housing and include all of the folks that work in our schools. Thank you so very much. Thank you. Next speaker. I am lower rain bowser. I am a cafeteria worker for the School District and rep for local 1021. Not to be disrespectful at all about the teacherrerses and housing. I have been a cafeteria worker for 30 years. Our people are parttime. A lot of people loved out of the city they are not able to stay here. I want to say, please think of the members of sciu having a huge housing problem, not just teachers. I want to say please consider sciu members employed by the School District also have a big problem. Thank you. Good morning. I am jeanine butler. I am not a public speaker. I am one of the examples. I live in San Francisco, but i have to work two jobs to make it. I work for unified School District over 28 years. Okay. I survived this. There is a time where i cannot survive because my represent is very high. I just want you to please to take this unlightly. Look after your clerks, custodians and myself for a Food Service Worker for student nutrition. I have seen it all. I have seen where we work 3. 5 hours.
