We asked mr. Hyams to present on covid19 on clean power sf. He is klein joining joining us today. Can you hear me . Yes, we can. Great. Once again. I am the director of clean powers sf for the San Francisco Public Utilities commission. I want to say i hope everyone is healthy and safe and remain that way as we navigate through this challenging pendemic. As the commissioner mentioned the executive officer asked me for a short update how the clean power sf program is giving given Current Events around covid19. Clean power sf is fully operational. Our Electricity Service will not be impacted by covid19. We recognize that the Society Response has required sacrifice and many members of the community are facing economic hardship. I wanted to take this moment to emphasize we are here to help our community. We have created a covid19 information page on our website. We continue to update this page with the latest information on covid19 response and support service as it relates to clean power sf elect service. You can find it at our website. In addition to making sure that we are communicating efficiently with our members of the community and customers, a number of measures have been taken by the city and county and the state of california to ensure that electricity customers have access to electric service. First, if a customer is unable to pay the electricity bill, power will not be shut off. This is part of the emergency proclamation of march 13th and the governors executive order of march 16th. Pursuant to the emergenc emerger payment delinquency. Flexible payment plans are also available to support clean power sf customers. Customers interested in more information can find that on our website at the page i mentioned before. Pg e is providing Additional Support to medical baseline customers for the next 12 months starting as of the beginning of march. That Additional Support includes suspending all customer removals from the medical Baseline Program. Customers will also be able to recertify excuse me. Not need to recertify eligible through a doctor or other eligible medical professional during this period of time. Customers will be able to selfcertify eligibility to enroll in the medical Baseline Program. For information the medical Baseline Program increases the allotment of Energy Available at the lowest price to qualifying customers. If any members of the public are interested in applying for this program they can find more information on our website. Some customers may qualify for monthly discounts on electricity bills through the california alternate rates for energy or care program. Under care qualifying households save 20 or more each month on the energy bills. The public and members of customers can obtain information on the website about eligibility in this program. Finally, i wanted to highlight clean power sf customers will receive a 35. 73 credit and 17. 87 on their may and june bills respectively under the california climate credit program. This Program Provides credit to Customers Using revenues from the state of california Greenhouse Gas cap and trade program. To help with the Economic Impact of the covid19 response, the second of the two credits which is for october each year is provided this year in may and june. The october amount is split 50 50 across the months of may and june. That is where the 17. 87 comes from. Shifting gears to our staffing and operations. Our staff is now mostly working remotely with only Staff Members reporting to the Head Quarters to support department mental Emergency Operations or complete tasks that must be done there. For example, receiving mail and sorting and distributing it. Staff are reporting to the office or Field Operations are following personal safety and using protective equipment. On the power supply side. We have had no problems with our supply of power or our solvers ability to operate. However, shelterinplace has impacted construction schedules and disrupted disapply chains for supply chains for new development. We are in communication with clean power sf. I am happy to report that neither of the two projects under construction this year have reported delays. These projects are expected to begin operations and deliver the power in september and december of this year respectively. On the demand side of our business, as you might expect, the shelterinplace order was issued on march 17. We have seen a reduction in clean power surge of 7 to 9 relative to preshelterinplace usage. As for the specific customer groups, we are seeing trends similar to what other Community Choice Energy Programs in the bay area are also reporting. With most households in place we have seen an increase in residential customer usage of about 12 , and with only essential businesses open we have seen when a 20 to 25 decrease in nonresidential customer usage. We will be tipping to track and analyze the customer usage and demand to understand the impact to our business and also to individual customer groups and will share further information as it becomes available. That concludes my prepared remarks for the meeting. I am happy to take questions from the commissioners. Thank you very much. Commissioners, any comments or questions . I see commissioner marhas joined us. Any comments or questions for mr. Hyams . Seeing none, i have a question. I will go after you. Thank you. Please go ahead. Thank you so much for the report. One of my questions had to do with whether or not customers would be sent back to pg e for nonpayment. I am pleased to hear that clean power sf has decided to take the stance of not returning customers to pg e and no shutoffs. That is all good news. I wanted to ask the decrease in usage. What do you attribute that to or do you . Yes, the principal thing that i attribute it to is some businesses are closed. All nonessential businesses are closed for the time being. Just the reduced traffic in our Office Buildings and other businesses throughout the city as a result of the shelterinplace. The figures that i shared, we are seeing a pretty significant reduction in commercial customer or nonresidential usage as high as quarter of normal usage has disappeared. As we know, people are working from home. We have seen residential usage increase. It hasnt compensated one for one. There is more commercial demand reduction than residential demand growth. That makes sense. I wanted to ask not included in your report is there a Recovery Plan . Do you know in the city or if you have a sense of how economically we recover from covid19 . Is there something built in, you know, future planning for Recovery Period whenever that should be . I think that planning work is being under taken right now as we speak. I think that we are coordinating clean power sf Recovery Planning with sfp citywide planning. That is coordinating with the city and mayors office. I know the regular budget process is suspended for the year so there is work done to forecast the expected impacts on the economy and what that might mean for the budget. We are similarly making our own sort of projections as we get what have been sort of realtime information about changes in our customers usage. The big challenge, of course, is uncertainty. We know what demand is now under shelterinplace, but shelterinplace will, we expect, be lifted in some way over time. We will start to see people go bacback to work in some form or fashion. From a clean power sf standpoint we do expect that demand will start to pick back up to normal levels. We just dont know if it will go all of the way given the Economic Impacts and what the pace of recovery will be. I know that doesnt directly answer be your question. I think the direct answer is we are working on plans right now, and we are also still trying to understand the magnitude of the impact that we will see as a result. Are the plans connected to the irp and capital plans . Absolutely. Our budget in capital planner are connected. Those will be going together to the board of supervisors for approval, my understanding as of now that will be late summer or early fall, but i imagine there will be more information on that coming fairly soon. We are looking at what those impacts may be or what the impacts may be to those plans. We will have more information soon. I dont have any at this point in time to share any new updates. I read that the irp was delayed from may to july. Do you think it will be pushed out . I do have news on that. It has been postponed by the california p. U. C. From july to september. We continue to work on our power irp, integrated resource plan. A really big challenge we faced has been uncertainty around what the california Public Utilities commission is requiring of us. There was a decision voted out by the california p. U. C. A couple weeks ago that set in place the more or less final direction for the i rp. That decision extended the due date from july to september. It also identified midmay delivery of final guidelines from the california p. U. C. Energy division staff. Those final guidelines will shape what we will need to submit to the california p. U. C. In the meantime we are getting ready to quickly do analysis, modeling work after that time and prepare a report to the stakeholders and run through the approval process. Commissioner maxwell had asked about who was present for the roundtable in terms of the irp process, meeting with stakeholders. I know that is probably delayed as well starting in february and everything hit and is pushed out andy layed. Do you know if you will be inviting some of the lafco stakeholders like 350 bay area and seand those groups to the rd tables . They are on the invitee list. We have delayed that engagement on when that is going to happen. I am happy to share more information as it becomes available. I am also happy to share through the executive office our stakeholder list. That would be great. If mr. Gobbel could be brought in. I dont know if it started in february due to all of the shifting priorities, but if he could be brought in to identify the lafco stakeholders to be included and have those stakeholders and mr. Gobble be included in the report review early to report out to lafco after your commission has been updated. Yes, absolutely. That is wonderful. Thank you. I know that i was on Maternity Leave in january. I know that the build out plan agenda item was continued to the call of the chair. You know, those items are tied together, obviously. When you start to do that Recovery Planning and the irp and how that looks and i think i would be interested to know if part of the Recovery Plan includes making some of those sites identified as a better site, if those might be shovel ready as part of the Recovery Plan. I am not asking the question now. I realize you are sort of on the spot and things are shifting and moving and pushed out. When the item is called again, i would be interested in hearing how that dovetails with recovery from covid19. I know there is talk of getting the country back to work and those are essential jobs. That would be wonderful to be able to work, especially with building and trades and construction and electrical workers, just howther work within the city and that whole process. That would be great to sort of include in your report out on that. That concludes my questions. Thank you so much. Thank you. Any other questions or comments . Seeing none. I have a couple questions. The relief measures. What are we doing proactively to let customers know there are these things available to them . Are we instead of asking them to look it up, are we putting things in mailings, sending emails out to Customer Base to let them know about not forgiveness but these efforts . We have not well, we have not been using physical mailinglers yet. Although i will take that suggestion back, commissioner. We have been prepared a newsletter electronic newsletter to distribute. These opportunities will feature prominently in that communication. We are also using or intend to use social media messaging to try to direct some traffic to our website so people know it is available. You bring up a good point about making sure that folks know where they can get information to provide assistance. Of course, we are arming our call center with this information. If our customers reach out to our call center looking for assistance, they will be able to get that information through the call center as well. I will take back this idea potentially for proactive physical mailinglers to direct attention to assistance measures. Also, are we contacting any sf media to make sure the nonenglish speaking customers are aware of these relief efforts available to them . I will follow up on that as well. The status of our media coordination. I have heard from the chinese folks that they arent reading newspapers but they are on the radio and, of course, seeing ads and Public Service announcements on television. Television viewing has gone up dramatically. You might do a public announcement on the ethnic media. I think a lot of customers who may need these relief packages or opportunities might be the nonenglish speaking customers. Yes, thank you very much. I will definitely take that back. Those are great suggestions. Thank you very much. No commissioners, no comments or questions . Anyone who would like to comment on item 3, please get in the queue and press 10. Could you please check to see if there are any speakers waiting. There are no callers wishing to speak. Thank you very much. Public comment is now closed. We dont need action on this item. It is informational. Madam clerk please call item 4. Item 4. Consideration and approval of the proposed lafco budget for fiscal year 20202021. If there are any members of the public to speak please press 1 and 0 now. Bryan goebel, i believe you have a presentation. I do, thank you madam chair and good morning, commissioners. I hope you are coping well during this crisis. Thank you for your leadership right now. I do have a presentation this morning on the lafco budget. Today i am proposing a status quo budget that is based on the latest city projections of a growing deficit. The status quo budget we are required to pass a budget, a draft budget by may 1st and final budget by june 15th. The budget i bring you today includes no increase in the amount requested from the city. It maintains the level of funding the city is required by state law to provide from the general fund. It is the same amount provided to lafco over the past 10 years. This slide is our work order balance with the San Francisco Public Utilities commission for lafcos oversight of clean power sf. It outlines the balance through the years and the current fiscal year. We have spent minimal funds. We spent to pay interns and Research Associates like mr. Parsons who produced the report. We will be ending this fiscal year with a balance close to 200,000. We are very close to bringing on a consultant to help us with oversight. In fact, that r. F. Q. Process is wrapping up. I hope to bring a recommendation for a consultant to you at our may 15th meeting. This will be providing expertise for oversight of clean power sf and help us analyze the local buildout report that you heard in january, and also providing feedback on the capital plan and the irp as discussed earlier. The process was disrupted because of the crisis. Under your direction, i do anticipate a lot of work on clean power sf in the next fiscal year. This shows the amount of funds lafco was able to raise this fiscal year for the survey of on demand workers. It is about 330,000 actually 335,000 we got a 5,000 grant to help with our urgent covid19 survey of workers. It will be possible to fundraise in the next fiscal year to support similar work we undertake. The climate for fundraising has changed. However, i imagine a lot of what we are do in the coming year will be impacted by the impacts of covid19. This shows the general fund balance. That is the budget we are talking about today. The amount we receive from the city and county. This is over the years and projected balance by the end of june. Today we anticipate a 37,000 carryover to the next fiscal year. These are the expenditures to date as of april 7th. Right now we have about 105,000 remaining funds to get to the end of the fiscal year. All spending is pretty much on track, maybe a little over budget. We have been calling on them a lot to do public bank work, that might be a little higher but not anything substantial. This is my proposed budget for fiscal 2021. I have provided a description of each line item in your packets. Similar to last year. Increases for clerk of Boards Office based on this years spending. They are critical and helpful. Increase in the dues. It amounts to a little over 292,000. I would ask you to approve the fiscal 2021 budget for that amount while reserving the right to the full statute amount of 297,342 lafco receives each year from the city and county. With that, commissioners, i am happy to answer any questions. Are there any questions, commissioners for our executive officer . Mr. Global, i have a quell. I wonder, this is not the budget we submitted to the mayor as part of the boards budget, is that correct . Thats correct i revised it based on consultation with your staff and in light of the citys deficit reverted to status quo budget to use the executive officer as an independent contractor and the status quo budget from all previous years. I think for the meeting in may where we will approve the budget, can you present the two proposed budgets for us so we have an explanation of the budget proposed to the mayor as part of the boards budget. This committee is able to see that and we are able to have discussion on that. I would be happy to do that, madam chair. Thank you very much. I want you to know we had proposed, i think, a larger budget for lafco in light of for so many fiscal years we were so solvent and we thought it was time to add to the lafco budget as it has not been added to i think we have had this budget for many, many years and it was time to increase the budget but given the landscape now, i actually think everything is pretty much in the air. I am the budget chair. The budget land scape is undetermined now and we are trying to get numbers. It is too early to make a final determination on a status quo budget. I am going to ask mr. Gobel to present two budgets to deliberate on. I am wondering any commissioners have comments or questions at all . Chair fewer, this is commissioner mar. I have a few questions and comments. I appreciate the work that you have done with mr. Goebel to come up with a new budget for lafco for next year based on the new budget environment we are facing throughout the city. I do have questions about what this means for the important work, looking ahead. If lafco is involved in work around clean power and on demand worker and lane important study where there is a need for important follow up policy work, and then the public bank work. I know the original budget that you referred to included more capacity to Carry Forward on these important priorities. I think my question is when we get to the presentation of the budget at the next meeting, it could include some explanation about how a reduced budget and staff capacity for lafco would impact the important work that lafco is doing in the coming year or years. Mr. Goebel, would that be included in your next presentation . Yes. Thank you, commissioner mar. I appreciate your input and i would be happy to analyze the impacts of cutting back that work abinclude as part of my presentation. I do see mr. Global has fund raised 330,000 on his own for our labor study. I want to recognize and thank him for that work. We wouldnt be able to do that study without his initiative to get that money. Thank you, mr. Goebel. I want to appreciate that. Commissioner martha could be included in the discussion. Any further questions . Thank you for the budget. I want to ask in past years the budget has been presented in april for approval and second approval in may. I wanted to ask is that tied to the city budget processor something legally we need to do by a certain date . Can we extend tha that . Is our attorney on the line . Good morning. It is nice to see everybody. Yes that is required under thelas costatutes. We have to look at the budget twice. We also, of course, are coordinating with the city since the lafco budget comes through the city. It is a lafco requirement, not a city requirement. Does that answer the question . Is it tied to the date of april and mayor can it just be approved in two meetings, you know, with a date to be determined by the San Francisco lafco . I believe we have until july to hold the two meetings. That is great to know. Our own budget process is delayed and wont start until august. That goes together nicely. I just really think we should give it more thought. As commissioner mar talked about the important work, i feel like covid19 impacts on the economy will be huge. They are huge now. That work is so important that we continue, and also in terms of clean power sf, people needy electricity. How does covid19 impact clean power sf and how it moves forward with the m. O. U. Expiring with the San Francisco p. U. C. . That money will be part of what we use as what we get from the city and county of San Francisco. We need to just think about the fiscal impact of the budget and what that means for the important work that lafco can do. At this time i wouldnt feel comfortable voting on the budget. I agree with chair fewer this needs to come back in the next meeting or may would be a great time unless that was pushed to june. With a june and july approval process that it could go to the city for the full budget process. Chair fewer is wil is well positioned to advise lafco. I cant vote on a budget today. The second part of the question is with our executive Officers Services being transitioned from contract to a City Employee, does that impact the budget or does salary plus benefits equal 150,000 . I believe we have done that calculation, mr. Goebel, if you can respond with the proposed budget. It included mr. Goebel being considered a City Employee rather than contracted employee. Thank you. The line item budgeted for that which was given by the clerk of the Boards Office is 193,000 total, 80,000 of that, i believe, was benefits. That is the figure for that. It would impact. It is about a 43,000 increase. If i could interject. I just want to point out government code 56381 requires lafco to adopt the proposed budget by may 1st and final budget by june 15th. I dont know if there are suspensions of that government code but i want to point that out for the commission. Thank you very much, madam clerk. Back to our attorney we need two hearings but not two approval voting. Is there something to delay this vote since the budget process in San Francisco is delayed also. Today you were asked to adopt the proposed budget. This would not be the time budget adoption. You will have one hearing where you adopt proposed budge eat and then the final budget. We did look into what would happen if the deadlines were pushed. We did not find anything in terms of a penalty that lafco would suffer if it had to adopt the budget later. There is a legal obligation to adopt the final budget in june, however, there doesnt seem to be any negative ramifications for pushing that deadline if necessary. We did feel we would not want to do so without clear rationalization for that missed deadline. This is also in light of what madam clerk just explained about the government code, that is correct . Is that correct. Is it your opinion we may be able to continue this item, then commissioners are holding a vote on this budget together since we have time because the city budget is not to start discussions until august. Would we be able to in your legal advice be able to continue this item until the meeting in may and have mr. Goebel continue the discussion with both proposed budgeted and what the implication for the reduced budget might mean for the work we are doing. Am i understanding that we would review the proposed budget in may. What is the date of that meeting, bryan . May 15th is the next scheduled meeting. Would the commission entertain a final budget in june or later in the summer . If we could have a discussion with both budgets and then at that time the next may 15 meeting have a deep discussion on the we were to reduce and prioritize but increase the budget so that the board had an opportunity to see what the impact might be on the work we have already done and are doing, i think we would have a discussion in may. Tentative approval and final approval in june. Does that sound like that would give you enough time . That makes sense to me. That is great. I also think that by that time we will have a clearer picture on the covid19 impact on the city and county of San Franciscos budget and as budget chair we are pushing hard for the numbers. If we could do that, i shy that would work well for us. When is our june meeting and would that be in time to meet the june 15th deadline . Yes, i am looking at my calendar here. I believe the june meeting is just one second. I believe it is june 12th. My question in terms of government code to have take extended would that go to the board of supervisors budget and finance and then to the full board . I dont understand. What was the question . I think i can answer that, commissioner. It would then be going to the boards budget. Lafco is part of the boards budget. The revised budget would go the boards budget and be part of the overall process under the board of supervisors budget. Then it would be miss ca c. E. O. Who would present it. Our our numbers would be pushed forward as well . Yes revised numbers. Okay. Great. Thank you so much. Mr. Goebel are you sure it is the 12th . I look at the calendar. It could be the 19th. Itant correcte i stand co. It is the 19th. It is a mistake on my part. To our attorney if it is four days later or how many days later than the statutory requirements, that is actually we wouldnt suffer any penalty by submitting it four or five days later . I see a delay of days rather than weeks or months being fairly low risk. As i noted there arent any legal ramifications for delay. We dont want to be seen to be blowing off our statutory obligations. That said, i think four to five days sounds like we can easily rationalize that. Commissioners, i would like to make a motion to continue this item to the meeting of may 15th where mr. Goebel will bring the proposed two budgets to us. Proposed budget in the board packet before the covid19 crisis and also he will bring to us a discussion on the impacts that the budget cuts would make to the current work that we are doing. Madam clerk, would i need a vote . I assume yes, is that correct . Yes you need a roll call vote. I need a motion. Could i have a second please. Thank you. Roll call vote, please. Who was the second . I was. The name . Commissionier singh. You are an alternate. I need another second. I second that pollock. If you could state your name it would be helpful. We cant tell who is doing it. The motion to continue item 4 to may lafco meeting. Commissioner fewer. Aye. Commissioner pollock. Ice. Commissioner haney aye. Commissioner mar. A ye. We should rescind this vote. I make a motion to resend this vote. Second vote. Commissioner pollock seconds the motion. Madam clerk, roll call vote. On the motion to resined commissioner fewer. Aye.

Mr. Goebel you are going to walk us through this . Yes. Straightforward item. When we pivoted to a covid19 survey of gig workers, i sought additional funding for staff time and also the worker incentives for the survey. We did receive a grant from the San Francisco foundation in the amount of 5,000 for this purpose, and this item would allow us to expend that money. I would recommend your approval. Thank you very much. Open this up for Public Comment. Any members of the public to comment on item 5. There are no callers wishing to speak. Public comment is closed. Any comments or questions by colleagues . Seeing none, please roll call vote. I make a motion to approve this item. Second please. Commissioner haney second. Thank you very much. Could i please have a roll call vote. Item 5, commissioner fewer. Aye. Commissioner pollock. Aye. Commissioner haney. Aye. Commissioner har. Aye. There are four ayes. Thank you very much. These call item 6. Item 6 is executive officers report. Mr. Goebel again. Thank you, madam chair. We are running late. I want to give you a brief update on our gig worker survey. The work our new intern is doing on public bank. Hopefully you can see my screen. My powerpoint so on both of these items, we have shifted our focus to assess covid19 impacts. The results will be a series of timely reports not only to report much needed data but give recommendations to help and form and guide your local policy decisions going forward. First i would like to talk about the survey of on demand workers. For those who are not uptodate on this. Lafco was in the process of a large survey of on demand survey of 1200 workers to get the city good data about the vulnerable workers who are front line workers. They were struggling before the virus. Now it is much, much worse. Before shelterinplace was issued. The survey Team Suspended the survey a month ago. When that work stopped they managed to get about 700 completed surveys up until then along with a number of in depth interviews. We suspended the survey three weeks to a month ago, and quickly pivoted to do a survey of covid19 impacts. The survey addressed these four categories. How is covid19 impacted the number of gig jobs . We know that there is a shift. We know uber and lyft is down. It has impacted pay as well. There are more workers out doing delivery. Many of the companies have waiting list for folks applying for these jobs. We know it has caused a big impact. We are also as in the broader survey asking about the lack of access to Health Insurance and paid sick leave. We are also asking what do you most urgently need now . Emergency funds, healthcare, pro protections from exposure, how are the companies doing . What are you doing to prevent spread of virus . How likely to work while sick due to the financial situation. Before this with some of the focus groups and results the team was getting, there were workers that said they would work even if they were sick. The plan here with the covid19 survey is to get around 300 responses. Combine that analysis with the 700 completed surveys the team has already. They are going to follow up or have been following up within depth interviews combined with research. We expect to have a preliminary report on the findings on may 2 and present those to you at the may 15 meeting. Along with those findings, working with the survey team and collaborating with stakeholders, lafco will produce a number of recommendations based on the findings. They will address these categories. Improving economic security, promoting accountability and lawful operations among the at base delivery and ride hailing companies, improving safety and health for at base workers and promoting Public Health and safety. These will be short and longterm recommendations. We are going to put out a table of ideas to comment already existing emergency measures taken and considered now by the board of supervisors. Also, we have a u. S. Tackling best practicing to address these. How are other cities responding to protect workers . What protections are being put in place around the globe . What kind of health and safety regulations are developed . What will the virus mean for the delivery industry and workers . What are the best practices around that . To comment the resolution passed calling on the City Attorney and the office of labor enforcement to enforce ab5 considering other aspects of ab5 or even force meant to protect the delivery industry. This will all come together in time for the may 15th meeting. We will have three presentations at that meeting. Combined findings of the survey and the team is pouring all resources into that preliminary findings. We will have the report from us f class on Delivery Services and lafco recommendations based on the combined findings and research. That is the latest on the gig survey. I do have one other item. I want to pause to see if there are questions from commissioners . Any comments or questions for our executive officer . I have a question. This is commissioner pollock. For the may 15th meeting, when do you anticipate we will get the three reports in draft form . Thank you for the question. May 21 when we may 2 we will have the draft. April 30 i expect a draft from usf. When i receive those i will send to you and your staff so we can get your feedback on those. We will be sending them out to a variety of other folks who have been involved in the research,
