Thank you very much. Mr. Updike is here to present on the item. Thank you chair cohen. John updyke. Weve submitted amended legislation. Considered substantive. Wield weed request a continuance to one week on the item. If you would like, i can briefly walk through the amended legislation. But we werent anticipating a discussion until next week. I agree, its true, but you walked up mic. I wanted to acknowledge you. No problem. Absolutely why dont you walk through the brief amendments then well take Public Comment and take up a motion. Happy to do so. So before you weve added in both the long title and in the body of the ordinance the destination property site address 1500 Mission Street. Thats one of the more substantive of the changes. Additionally, this item to be responsive to the budget an legislative analyst report. Now seeks that the in the middle of the long title, the additional language regarding that the remaining proceeds of 321765 would be on controllers reserve and penned both the sales of the buildings, the discretionary actions which will be coming forward to the board of supervisors and those are the approval of a general plan amendment and approval of a planning code amendment. Findings of sikh wit cequa as well as the agreement between the city and related california or llc as noted in the title. Really, this those are the amendments here and in the body weve add the address 1 1500 mission and happy to answer any questions on that from a process standpoint, if you have any. I want to make sure that the amendment language before us actually allows us to vote on the 321 million an 321 million, and 122 million appropriations separately. Is that how you presented it . No. Well turn to the analyst. As i understand it, this item is going to be continue, so i wont review all the details of the report. Let me make a comment on this legislation. This amended legislation just submitted. Mr. Jup dyke says this address the concerns of the budget analyst. This do not any way shape or form address the budget of the legislative analyst. This doses not there are two Major Concerns in our report. One is that will after obtaining an additional 154,000 and that number comes from mr. Updyke of additional new space after getting this new building after selling the other buildings, there will be 154,000 more square feet of space exd for years, members of the board of supervisor have expressed serious concerns about the fact that the city leases over 2 million i dont know what it million is now, it was over 2 million square feet of space spais in the civic center and rightfully so, the members say we want a new building to reduce our lease spaces. This legislation that you just received in know way shape or form assures the board of supervisors that one square feet of space will be leased. There is no a stheurnses there will be any reduction in lease space and no assurances to the board of supervisors that there will be any lease cost savings to the city number one. Number two, it doesnt expression the concerns in our report that when the board of supervisors and by the way, you were advised by departments in 2014 that there would be reduction in lease space and you were also advised that the furniture fixtures and equipment and the technology and the moving costs were going to be approximately 12 million. Now they have increased by 139 to 29. 4 million. This legislation didnt address that at all. All this legislation does is address the points we made that plier to the board of supervisors approving this legislation, there are certain other actions that have to be taken. This does address that. In terms of the two Major Concerns to the city, any cost savings to the city, it no way shape or form addresses our concerns. Thank you very much for the preview for next week. Well continue the conversation next week. I want to pivot and give the deputy City Attorney and opportunity to speak as well. Just briefly, deputy City Attorney to the chair to the committee. One of the motivations for the amendments proposed by mr. Updyke today is the previous failure to include the address the 1500 Mission Street address. Were thankful that mr. Updyke dealt with that in the amendments and given the notice issues, we believe continuance to next week may be appropriate. And the committee feels like it wants to divide the 122 from the 321 or any other potential changes or amendments, the committee is free to do so at that time. Thank you very much for the clarification. Well take Public Comment on this item. Any members of the public that want to speak on item four, please come up. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Supervisor tang. Thank you, i know were going to have i more row burst conversation at the next meeting, but i want before we get there address mr. Roses first concern which is regarding the amount of lease space it from our other city departments in civic center and the increase well get. Can you speak to that since you do have the bird birdseye view over all the lease space here . Sure. Supervisor tang. We have either sent or will be sent shortly from the board to all the board of supervisors a report on the lease portfolio can have the city. Also diving in a little deeper to the civic center lease hold portfolio which has been reduced significantly. And pivoted to better protect us from future market fluctuations. Were happy to speak to that. At the time this comes forward, happy to address the other issues addressed by budget and legislative analyst at the time this comes forward as well as in may when the board will have the opportunity to take other divining actions on this project. So this is not intended to give short shrift to those concerns. We fully intend to address them, just not today. Just a minute mr. Rose, supervisor tang. I think at the next hearing, i would like to hear about how with the increase of the 140,000 square feet of space after this transaction occurs, what are we doing with that Additional Space . It may that be the dments that are going if there need that Additional Space. Maybe not. If you could clarify the whole kind of what is going on, that would be great. Mr. Rose. Yes, madam chair and members of the committee, supervisor tang, that is what i was going to say. Mr. Updyke made reference to the fact there has been reduction in lease space. Im not talking about any reduction in lease space that has been made. Im talking about a new building that has, as you stated, 154,000 results in 154,000 net additional square feet. Does the city get any reduction in lease space specifically as a result that have new building . You know, i used to rent we used to live in park merced, my wife and i and two daughters. We accumulated enough money to purchase a house. Guess what, we terminated the lease where we were living and we moved into the new house. I would like to know specifically as a result of this 154,000 square feet of lease space, will the city show us in writing what reduced lease savings what leases are going to be terminated a as a result of this new building . Consistent with what the board of supervisors was previously advised in 2014. If were talking about in the future, right now, the mayor has indicated that were in a period now where we have to look out for our finances. Because of our projected short false and so forth. If the controller mentioned something we could be facing maybe a downturn in the near future. We shouldnt be talking, in my professional judgment, about new City Employees to occupy new space. We should be talking about a reduction in city lease costs as a result of gaining 154,000 square feet of space. This is nothing new. This is the departments who previously advised the board of supervisors, if you do this deal at 12500 Mission Street, thats what you would get. And so far, thats what weve not seen. All right, lets save some pft fire for next week. Mr. Updyke, i think you heard from this committee what weed a like to see and hear in the presentation next week. Ladies and gentlemen, what i think i want to do is although you mentioned the amendments today, i think well take them all um and deal with everything next week. Id love to have a motion what day is the Budget Committee next week . Next Budget Hearing date for next week is april 20th. April 20th sorry april 20th. April 20th 2017 is the next Budget Committee. May i have a motion to continue. Ill make a motion to continue item 2. Deputy City Attorney. I apologize for interrupting. Deputy City Attorney andrew shen. To deal with the notice issues, at a minimum the committee should modify it to the 1500 Mission Street address. Supervisor tang do you have any other comments . Ill make the motion to adopt the 1500 Mission Street address. Supervisor you were speaking to that. Ill go ahead and make a motion to continue. So we have a notion amend which well take without objection and we have a motion to continue next week to april 20th and well take that also without objection. I apologize. Just to clarify, i think at the clerk as office request theyd like to see an amendment to reference the address and section two as well. So instead of potential Office Building development, it would say 1500 Mission Street development. Through the chair, ill rescind my motion for the amendment earlier. Just restate in the long title, it will include 1500 Mission Street on page one. On page two section two line 24 add 1500 Mission Street. Well take that without objection. Thank you. Thank you. P. Do we still have to make a motion to amend . Yes. Ill make a moment to continue as amended to our april 20th meeting. Thank you very much. All right, next item, please.

Items acted upon today will peer on the april 25 board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise stated. Thank you very much. Could you please call item one on the budget and finance select committee agenda. Item number one a hearing to receive an update on the federal budget and any related impact to the city and request a Controllers Office and maters budget office. All right. Thank you for hearing this item. Several weeks ago we received an overview of federal fundingof federal funding to San Francisco as well as any anticipated impacts or risks to our cities department. These are the risk theyre going to be facing. Its difficult to anticipate the pace of how quickly things can change at a federal level, but i believe its incredibly important that this Committee Stay abreast and up to speed on the changes that do occur. That may have impact on our citys budget and financial health. This week will hear from the department of Public Health regarding the status of the Affordable Care act. What impacts and what impact the failed attempt to repeal the aca will have. With that i like to bring up pauline chawla, good afternoon pauline from the department of Public Health. Good afternoon supervisors. Thank you for having me. Arlene joplin for the department of Public Health. I have just a brief overview for you on what is occurred since i was last here just about two weeks ago related to the Affordable Care act. So primarily what i want to say is that the Affordable Care act remains in place. There have been no changes. I think the most Significant Development took place the day after i was here last week, last month. On march 24, the majority leaders in the house of representatives canceled a key vote on the Affordable Care act on American Healthcare act, that is, and this is really a win for the 133,000 san franciscans whove been benefited from the aca sponsored Health Insurance. When i was here last i talked about the American Healthcare act which would repeal and replace the Affordable Care act. As i described to you previously, the American Healthcare act wouldve repealed the individual employer mandate, would have repealed subsidies on the healthcare exchanges like cover california. Would have reduced federal medicaid funding to states like california and would have really restructured fundamentally the medicaid program. Though the cancellation of this vote on the house floor is a reprieve the white house and congressional leadership have indicated their desire to continue with the repeal effort. In fact, i was in washington dc just last week with our Community Clinic consortium and we had the privilege of meeting with leader pelosi. The leader had indicated to us that the reason that the American Healthcare act was so important to the leadership is because they needed the savings from the repeal and replacement to fund the tax reform package that there are intending to take up next. So that is among the reasons why its still important for leadership and congress and in the white house to look at some changes to the Affordable Care act. So it is unclear now what will happen exactly, whether the American Healthcare act will pass, or, if it does pass it may look different than the current version looks now. In many details would be also up to the administration when she implements the legislation if it were pass. Finally, whatever california does in response to federal action, will also be as important as federal action in terms of the impact on San Francisco. So its also important to note is a significant amount of Administrative Authority that can occur in the absence of legislation to rollback provisions of the Affordable Care act. So to highlight a few areas where the administration already has within its authority some power to change the Affordable Care act significantly. First would be around the subsidies that make insurance affordable for low income and middle income individuals. These subsidies areone of the subsidies is a subject of a federal lawsuit Congressional Republicans sue the Obama Administration and were successful in a lower court. The Trump Administration couldthe Obama Administration appeal. The Trump Administration could take up the appeal or drop the appeal. If they drop the appeal, that means the subsidies could be eliminated for the lowest income individuals purchasing Health Insurance on the exchange. It could also allow state administration could also allow states impose restrictions on medicaid beneficiaries. Whats being talked about at the federal level are things like work requirements. Making sure that people on medicaid are working. This would be an allowance for states to opt into. The federal government could also without legislation we can the individual mandate. They could choose not to enforce portions of the individual mandate. This could result in destabilizing the marketplace because individuals who rely more heavily on Health Insurance would be those more likely to enroll in those who dont rely heavily on Health Insurance would which would be more cost costly for Health Insurance and likely drive up prices on the marketplace. Finally, within their Current Power redefine essential Health Benefits. Right now, theres 10 categories of essential Health Benefits. They include hospital care, primary care, maternity care, prevention and things like that. While those 10 essential Health Benefits would have to remain there significant latitude within the admin stations power to change what comprises those essential Health Benefits. Changing what comprises prevention or Mental Health or Substance Abuse care. So shifting a little bit to the president s budget, i dont have any new information for you today. Updating from a was last available. The president had introduce whats called a skinny budget. A skinny budget means it pertains only to Discretionary Spending not entitlement spending like medicaid. In the discretionary budget the proposal was to reduce the budget by 18 for health and Human Services. The comment that most directly affects the department of Public Health. But specifically, specifics were not provided. The whole of health and Human Services area with two pages of narrative so i dont have more details than i did before. I will say, too, just as whatever changes to the Affordable Care act are taking up under the American Healthcare act were administratively by the Trump Administration, how california response will be as important as the changes made at the federal level. So what does that mean . Generally, funding at the federal level pass to the states not in all cases but in many cases medicaid is certainly one of those largest cases. But, how to fundif the federal government reduces medicaid funding, or changes requirements for medicaid, how california adopts those and whether california adopts those would be a significant question. How to fund and Structure Medical in the event of changes at the federal level or, whether to take up certain federal options that the federal government gives to states to make the programs more affordable for them also would be of significant importance to the department of Public Health and the city. Its also important to know the california legislator is already considering other options. So there are legislative proposals afloat that would create a single payer in the state of california also, universal Healthcare System not unlike our own healthy San Francisco system. We are keeping an eye on those things, too. Just an overview on what we are doing about all of this advocacy is our number one goal right now. I mention id been in washington dc and met with elected officials there. Despite the proposals that are pending at the state level, it still important we feel to protect the gains we have achieved under the Affordable Care act. So we are meeting with our delegation. Meeting with the citys lobbyists and we are conferring regularly with her statewide and nationwide association. In the meantime we are tying to maximize all of the programming that we havethat were also in a lesson the impact of the proposals that are part of the Public Health. With that in mind, we are keeping at the forefront of course the care to the individuals we serve and making sure that we keep those principles high. That we want to make sure that Healthcare Access for our residents is of the utmost importance. So just to leave you with a few key takeaways. A summary of my presentation. To say that nothing had changed despite all the conversation and everything in the news, everything is still the same as it was before. Health Insurance Benefits remain in place and people should continue to use them. That federal changes still possible but the details and the impact remain unclear and we are continuing to monitor so that we know what the impact of the is as it is clear proposals come forward. Even a clear proposals come forward, california has to act and how california acts will be of significant importance to the department of Public Health in the city and whats really at risk here is coverage for the 133,000 san franciscans who gain acas sponsored insurance. For those individuals Health Insurance could be reduced or lost. We want to preserve the gains that were made under the Affordable Care act and the addition of new insured san franciscans and we want to make sure that we maintain continuity of care, not just access, the continuity of care in the very Health Systems across San Francisco that serve these individuals. Its also important for you to know healthy San Francisco remains in place. We continue to have a healthy San Francisco program that will assist those who have no other options for Health Insurance. That is the conclusion of my presentation. Happy to answer questions you may have. Thank you very much. Supervisor kim has a few questions thank you i want to ask about congresses passage in regards to title funding and trump p signing into law states ability to withhold federal funding from clinics that perform abortions and family care. I know that is a state choice, but i want to know a little bit more about what the department of health is thinking about that. Title x funding right. I am not familiar. I should be formatted. Im not summa with the actual executive order my investing around some of those decisions were in the American Healthcare act and other places. But we certainly support reproductive rights and offer a continuum of Reproductive Health services at the department of Public Health. Yes. I know that but february actually not sure its an executive order. I think Congress Actually passed that. I know trump is signing that into law today or couldve been executive you know. Signing into law today so its a legislation that would allow states to withhold federal funding title x funding, from organizations like planned parenthood that perform abortions. That was a lot obama had put into place. It would be great to get more information about that. I think it something we need to prepare for seeing thats decision is out of our hands. I doubt california would take that option up but im very interested. Will be very sure to try to get like the out other california rules i highlight i think were fortunate to be in a state where many the things are not likely to be adopted by our state likely being one of them. Its only something we need to Pay Attention to because the state has zero resources they need to make difficult decisions. Thank you. Thank you super visor kim. Question for you. You mention in your report california roll and you [inaudible] California Legislature is hearing a couple options one being singlepayer and the other being universal healthcare. Do you know where these piece of legislation are in the process . The single payer bill has been amended. I think just last week to include much more detail on what its proposing. Has yet to make it through the legislature. The universal healthcare proposal is one that has been talked about by the lieut. Gov. But to my knowledge has not yet been put into legislation. So okay its being discussed. It has not been drafted or submitted . Correct. Thank you. Any other questions . Seeing none, thank you for your presentation i think we will go to Public Comment at this time. Ladies and gentlemen you have Public Comments. You will have two minutes. Your soft chime indicating 30 seconds on your time. If you would like to come up, please do so. Good evening ladies and gentlemen, supervisors and audience. First of all i want to say who i am. Im ace on the case washington. Im not can go through the scenario i really do because this is a very important meeting. Very important. First of all at the outset i want to say not only to make a statement but also trying to find out what in the hell is going on . If you dont know our city just edges, want to know what somebody from the federal government here because right now, ace im on my way to washington dc. To find out whats happening. With trump i want to him to come to San Francisco to tweet tweet tweet some of things he talks about in his campaign. What do you have to lose . I want him to come to San Francisco and tell him to bring the new hud director to San Francisco where this thing started out and find out he can tweet and tell the world was happening on fillmore street but as far as the city and county, the city by the bay, Everybody Needs to know everything is not okay. [inaudible] supposed to be doing. Im not new to this. Im true to this. Let me take my hat off. Im not just an ordinary citizen. I should be getting five minutes because im making a statement. Hope sf or whatever you want to call it. I was there from the outset. Nobody, none of you all, i dont see nobody around one hope sf was put together. [inaudible] lieut. Gov. Soon will be the next governor. I know him personally. I know legislators and i know a lot of people person to i know everybody before you got most of the people. That come from my community to the government now are executive directors of and head of departments in San Francisco. The city by the bay. Where everybody thinks everything is okay. But ive got something to say. [inaudible off mic] thank you your time is up. Your time is up. [inaudible off mic] mr. Cook, please call the Sheriffs Department thank you. [inaudible off mic] this meeting is in adjournments. [gavel]s [gavel] calling someone to make a correction. The meeting with a german and actually we were in recess. One calls out of recess again and also want to acknowledge that at the beginning of this meeting i wanted to recognize that we have a full quantum, six members of the board of supervisors are here. Three representing the Budget Select Committee and three the budget finance subcommittee. So, i appreciate your patience. Calling, she still here . I had a couple questions for you. Could you describe the difference between the functionality between the aca and healthy sf . So essentially formal care at did three things. Required people to have Health Insurance. It gave them more opportunities to get that Health Insurance. Then, he made some investments in Public Health and the opportunities to get Health Insurance, which included medicaid and private Health Insurance, are the expenses and Health Insurance which caused healthy San Francisco to go down to healthy San Francisco is essentially coordinate care program for uninsured Health Insurance did it looks like Health Insurance but doesnt uncover you out of the city. It doesnt cover [inaudible] it doesnt give you the entitlement picture you would get with Health Insurance. Like the minimum level of coverage for certain things in a timely access to services. Thats kind of a roundabout way to say Health Insurance is more of a Holistic Program thats available across counties where you go its portable with you but unlike healthy San Francisco, which is Just Healthcare coverage within the city for uninsured individuals. All right. Thank you. Another question is, how much in federal dollars does San Francisco receive for the winter 33,000 san franciscans in the expanded Medicare Program . Im not sure i can answer that you do not to be to San Francisco directly. It will be to the providers that serve them we serve about a quarter of the medicaid. The 93,000 got medicaid but the 43,000 got cover california they got their Health Insurance and other places. In the individual Health Insurance market. Many of them have subsidies and those are federal dollars that come from the sub subsidies but doesnt come directly to the city of San Francisco. Okay. Heres another question. The federal Health Dollars that could be lost, are they tied to other funding streams, or, various funding streams . So if i think about medicaid,as the largest portion that could be lost, with the federal government was considering in the American Healthcare act was changing the way states get medicaid funding. Right now, its in entitlements. If we spend money that is an allowable expenditure the federal government will give . 50 on the dollar for those expenditures. Theres no limit right now. As long as we spend it on approved relations were approved services. Under the American Healthcare antenna with a want to do is change it to a per capita and say state of california, we will look at your previous utilization and previous enrollment and we will say you only get so much money per person enrolled in your program, and you have maybe some additional flexibility to use it as you want, but we are only going to give you that much money and you manage within that budget. That was seen as having a significant budget savings for the federal government and more for the federal government but moves that risk onto the state, which within move it onto counties. Okay. Last question. This is more on demographics, on trying to understand the profile of the persons that are on the expanded medicare population. So let me reword that. What are the general demographics on the expanded medical population . The Medicaid Expansion we took up here in california had a Significant Impact on medicare enrollees. Nearly doubled enrollment in medical in San Francisco. It meant that people who were at incomes between zero and 130 of the federal Poverty Level it didnt have any other qualifying conditions. I think previously people thought medicaid or medical was a Health Insurance program for anyone who is low income that wasnt true. If you are a single adult without connection to family or youre not aged or disabled, you do not have eligibility for medicaid. Now it single adults between the ages of 1964, you dont have disabilities, you dont have children and are in families eligible. Its a significant thank you very much for your time and expertise. Supervisor kim one quick followup question around colored california and the funding that comes from the federal for Affordable Care act. Those in the medicaid population the 800 million that we talk a lot about, that would bethat comes from the federal government, that covers healthcare, that doesnt cover the c cover california clients. Thats true. Okay. The contribution to the federal government to our Healthcare System is much larger than 800 million. That is correct. Thank you thank you for the clarification. Thank you very much. All right. So colleagues, weve already taken Public Comment i dont see any other question. I would love to entertain a motion for item 1 . Supervisor tang [inaudible] i make a motion to a motion must be made one of the members of the subcommittee. Okay. I make a motion to continue this item to the call of the chair. Thank you. I will need a second. Motion made by supervisor fewer and second made by supervisor kim. Can we take out without objection or roll call no roll call without objection the motion passes. [gavel] mr. Clerk, any other business for the federal select committee . End of the federal select committee agenda. Thank you very much. [gavel] now, mr. Clerk if not mistaken will now go into our next agenda the budget and finance committee. Is that right . Okay please call the item item number one hearing to perceive a budget update from the recreation and Park Department for fiscal year 201718 and 201819 requesting recreation and Park Department to report. Thank you. I want to welcome the general manager mr. Philip ginsberg. Thank you supervisors. Were gonna bring this down a bit. Because its a new Budget Committee and we have some new members of the board we were going to take just a couple of minutes to do a little bit of a broader overview of our department before we dive right into budget. Just a reminder about the breath of your fund its truly one of the best urban park systems in the united states. The statistics on most proud about is very very very close to 100 of us live within a 10 minute walk of a part. Thats an amazing thing. We oversee almost 15 of the citys land. About 4000 acres. We have 222 Neighborhood Parks with some new ones that have been acquired. Our system is full of playgrounds and play areas could tennis and basketball courts,. [inaudible] swimming pools is call purses and stadiums and on the programs item i dont know enough people realize the breath of our summer programming and what we do. The breath of our recreation. Over 77,000 hours of Recreation Programs offered each year really, 500 summer camps Touching Every single corner of our city. Everyone participates in a programs regardless of ability to pay. The last several years recreation and part apartment averaged offering over 1 million in scholarships based on the Public School districts free and reduced lunch model to kids. Its a system which people love which people really care about over 180,000 volunteer time in our system. Our budget is very much a link to our Strategic Plan. I thought we would start there. You have a copy of this a Strategic Plan in front of you. Our goal is that San Francisco sparks connect us all to play, to nature, and to each other. We are really guided by our mission statement, our vision statement, are organizational values we talk about how we work and interact with the public in our plan is really broken down into five Core Strategies which you see there. One is inspiring public space. Our goal is to keep our parks safe clean and fun, to promote historic and cultural heritage. And to build a great parks of tomorrow. We want to inspire play by promoting active living, wellbeing and community for San Francisco diverse growing population. We also want to inspire investment. Whether that is treasure or sweat to Community Engagement advocacy partnerships. We want to cultivate more Financial Resources to keep our parks programs accessible for all. We seek to inspire stewardship by protecting and enhancing precious Natural Resources conservation, education, and sustainable lan and Facility Management practices. Lastly, in our goodly most important, we seek to inspire our team. We are only good as the people that we are and delivering our services. So we encourage innovation and were trying to cultivate a connected and engaged workforce that delivers outstanding service. These strategies are broken up into a series of objectives and over 80 different specific work initiatives that is in all of what we do but these are things that we are focusing on in our Strategic Plan. As you will recall in june the voters strongly supported and strongly approved proposition b. This was an important moment for parks. While voters have been very supportive of Capital Investment in our park system at the end of the day, sustainable operational funding is critical to our ability to care for it. And steward it. So proposition b provides a baseline of funding which grows very modestly and very incrementally over the years but nonetheless, protects the department from significant economic downturns and allows us to make sure that our parks and programs in our neighborhoods continue to be served and continue to be well stewarded. Proposition b was also a commitment by us to make sure we were capital and deferred maintenance. Weve a very old park system. Its 140 years old. We have well over 1 billion worth of deferred maintenance needs in our system. This amount of money allows us to chip away at that but it is a pledge by us that this matters. We are basically taking 50 million a year which is much more than weve ever had before, and was really the benefit of some really good Capital Planning and work on Capital Planning committee and Capital Planning team and frankly, good economy that has allowed us to secure this amount for deferred maintenance. This measure also imposed to the good, very significant and thorough planning requirements. Calling for a Strategic Plan which were already doing but also calling for an operations plan, a capital plan, and very significantly, if i can find the slide, some equity metrics. This is what the language says. It asked the department to develop a set of equity metrics to be used to establish a baseline of Recreational Park resources [inaudible] compared to services and resource available to the city as a whole. So from the minute this measure passed and actually long before, we began to think about how we are going to do it. Theres been a lot of conversation about equity in our city departments measure equity very differently. I can report after Extensive Research and that there are very few parks systems frankly, hardly any, actually doing this. I think weve come up with a way of measuring our Service Delivery that is an emerging best practice in the field. That is, we are using [inaudible] the seven disadvantage population characteristics which include income, employment, linguistic isolation, presence of youth and seniors, asthma rates, low birth weights. I think that is the seven. Measuring census tract by census tract compared to the rest of the city. What you see in this map here in the dark purple are all the areas in the city that are the top 20 of the census tract based on the aggregate presence of those disadvantage population characteristics. The light purple around it are parks within a five minute walk. Of those areas. So we are now able to make servicelevel comparisons and look at how we are doing and how were delivering services and what we refer to as our equity zones compared to our services as a whole. We develop a significant height, a large number of metrics and frankly, over time, as long as we actually have real data we can measure just about anything using this model, using this lens, but here are some examples of some core metrics that speak to our mission. Which, i think i to make you feel proud of your park system. If you look at access to parks, inner equity zones,. 47 parks are 1000 residents versus. 22 in nonequity zones. Our Park Maintenance, we were curious to see how we taking care of any parks better than others . 84 of our repair and maintenance requests were complete an equity zone compared to 80 in nonequity zones. Park investment. This is under your leadership and under the maters leadership, theres been a significant amount in recent years a park Capital Investment in equity zone parks. We think we doing a half decent job of cultivating volunteerism and stewardship nonequity zone parks. Also, it is really the heart of a Recreation Program delivery. So from this, comes a budget these are policies, or values. Now we take a look at our budget. Our 1617 budget was 208 million. Of this, 154 of it is our operating budget and another 54 of it is capital. I want to note that our Capital Budget is lengthy. It doesnt look the same every year. It really depends on when we are issuing bonds and when we get grants and when philanthropy comes in. So we do i cannot tell you we have 50 million every year for capital. Its actually very very widely in the counting is done its a little goofy. Your to smooth this out over a long period of time. Where does our money come from . It comes from three primary sources. Most significantly, the general fund. Our general fund subsidy. Now, this is the amount that under proposition e we have some longterm stability. Proposition b comes with a share of responsibility we are responsible for managing arlen increases in cost. To the extent where pay more for water or for salaries or for healthcare, or, for Legal Services or material and supplies, that is our responsibility to manage but it does provide a baseline. It protects the bottom from falling out like it did in 0708 we had significant layoffs when we had to close cup clubhouses and things like that. That should not happen again. The second primary source of our revenue is our Openspace Fund. We receive five centsim sorry 2. 5 cents, i wish it was five, melissa its 2 1 2 cents of every property tax revenue is set aside in general fund dollars, but it set aside in our Openspace Fund. That Openspace Fund is a pretty important part of our overall financial model. Lastly is the money we earn. This is very relevant. I will remind you every single park system in the country has an earned revenue spreadsheet. That is revenue from things being in small pr program fees. Its our concessions. Its outside lands. Its the parking garages which are beneath some of our parks and all contribute to our earned revenue. Significantly, and importantly, earned revenue is where we have the ability over time to make more investments in our park system. Our hope is that the Openspace Fund which is been doing well, because the increase in property tax revenue, but in some point its expected to level off in general fund is really justits gonna stay pretty steady with minor incremental growth to the extent either cost significantly rise, or if you would like us to make additional investments in our park system, it is that earned revenue bucket that gives us the flexibility to do that. Where do we spend our money . You see those two pie charts here. They look at things in different ways. Starting with the one on the left side of the slide, the biggest chunk of our support is for Park Maintenance. That is for gardeners, are gardner supervisors. Our custodial teen. That is the biggest expense that we have. It slightly smaller for recreation and aquatic staff. We have a fullblown corporate yard at rec and park. Weve electricians and plumbers roof workers and cement masons. That is a big chunk of our budget you will see that 93 of our budget includes directly into the [inaudible]. Our administration, the administration staff, we do a lot with a little. We are pretty lean. Then, by type, and the shark probably should not [inaudible] than other city department. The business expenditure for us it remains salary and benefits. I think other things we do rely pretty heavily on the services or other departments and thats an area of Cost Containment that worries us a little bit. Because we cant necessarily control what we do like over a Large Organization and because of the nature of what we do we do get our fair share of trip and fall and injuries in our park system. Legal services. Thats a big chunk. Water, we are also very sensitive about material and supplies and equipment. Those costs have continued to rise thats pretty much how we spend our money. I think, as you know, city departments we are given some budget targets. We were not as to makewe were not expected to make a cut because a proposition b but we had to manage our own resources after we did the math on our 1617 budget looking at all of our increase cost, we to 1. 5 million base budget shortfall to solve. We are solving appeared with revenue. It allows us to make a modest amount of continued investment. Supervisor yee has a question. Can you backup just a bit. The base bun makes up 31 . My understanding is that the book that should be towards acquisition of a [inaudible] no. Small pieces are reserved for acquisition. Theres an Acquisition Fund is also a contingency reserve. Its funny that is supposed to be spent on development and maintenance. Its not for recreation. Its not for some of the other things we do. It augments our ability to care for our 4000 acres of open space. There are specific carveouts in the charter where money set aside for acquisition and a significant amount of money is set aside for the reserve soi guess my question really becomes even within the categories you name, it doesnt seem to be reflective of your pie chart in regards to to the types of programs or whatever. Your Park Maintenance there but its mostly in Park Maintenance, supervisor, that would go through again this is an operations budget not a Capital Budget. So Acquisition Funds, we would look at in the context of our capital plan weve all kinds of restrictions on sort of some funds but within our budget. I did not laid out in detail here. The pie chart im looking at is [inaudible] yes. How much money does pie chart represent . Its a sum total of our operating budget, which is 154 million. The 154, i believe, the slide that showed that. The slide that showed what our operating budget is right here. They are not numbered. Sfgov tv, the overhead, please. There it is, yes. Okay the 154. Got it. The budget is not reflected. Not reflected there. Again, the Capital Budget is a little bit more complicated and we do a capital plan and stay with a Capital Planning committee. Then it comes to you but this is a look at our operations. I think i answered my own question. Again in 1819 because this is a twoyear budget plan, again our goal is to solve revenue allowing us to make some minor investments back into the system. Again, preserving this 59 a year to tackle general fund capital to tackle deferred maintenance and related capital needs. So what are we doing with those funds this year . Our budget allocations are linked to our Strategic Plan, which you saw earlier. Under strategy one aspiring space, we are moving towards a preventative maintenance module that allows us not just to fix stuff when its broken and when its really broken we issue a bond, we want to get out front develop a preventive Maintenance System and this requires a significant amount of maintenance planning to go along with just the folks that have the substantive the skills to do the [inaudible] so were investing preventive maintenance planning services. We are adding staff to do some additional deferred minutes work. I believe that this is in our structural maintenance yard. I think a couple of cement masons where weve got some shortages and backlogs. And then related to more park cleanup andwhich im sure youre all interested in, we are adding some labors to free up our gardeners to do more horticultural time where our labors can kind of [inaudible] custodial staff does stuff inside buildings and restrooms and were adding labors to help us with park cleanup on the outside space. This is a little bit of a highlight what that general fund Capital Budget looks like. By the way, the things you see in purple here, weve highlighted this is work in our equity zones. Equity related work. Just so you can kind of see how we have begun to use this lens to really think about equity in a variety of ways. I just want to pull up a larger chart here. Not every bucket of our Capital Budget request is showing here. But general building maintenance, this is the stuff that pays the nuts and bolts of what our structural maintenance does every day comes out of that. We have money for camp mather. We are on a field revocation cycled with our synthetic fields. Let me see. I think supervisor kim has welcomed a new replacement of a field at franklin square. I believe supervisor ronen has just welcomed the replacement of aesthetic turf field at garfield. I believe Youngblood Coleman and Silver Terrace are next up. Crocker is in the loop. Swifter plan these fields. These have a shelf life of 10 years and we need to put money aside because theyre big replacement cost. Is also money for grass Rehabilitation Project as well. We are investing a considerable more in urban forestry for obvious reasons weaver hundred and 31,000 [inaudible]. Weve got wild weather that we experience this winter we are seeing more tree failures meaning, tree maintenance becomes more and more critical and part of that tree Maintenance Work involves tree assessment of parks for doing over a cycle of time. Court resurfaced things. These are the vascular courts and Tennis Courts, and asphalt in your districts we do categorize these. We lookwe do a condition facility index and we try to tackle as many of the most critical ones that we can thanks to supervisor kim we have extra funny this year as a result of an agreement reached over a developing project. I think San Francisco save our sports is adding fun into the pot. Its not shown here but will allow us to tackle number of Tennis Courts and i think almost every district. Then, im sorry and 1718 we are leveraging some existing resources and capital resources, with this plan to tackle some park projects where theres been a desire for a scope that exceeds our budget. In these three equity zone parks. Play. Inspiring plate this more focused on recreation and this is a little sample. One of the programs that would love for you to know about that were most proud about is something called a tennis learning center. We are working on a major renovation of Golden Gate ParkTennis Center which is really open its the hub of public tennis in San Francisco. Its a very expensive capital project. I think 8090 of the money is going to be philanthropic we raised were about halfway there but the program the vision is modeled after something in palo alto which is really beautiful. Its kids where kids from East Palo Alto comfort to stanford campus for a mix of tennis and high School Tutoring and youth to bauman. Its a very very Successful Program with documented data driven outcomes we want to replicate that in Golden Gate Park it the way we are starting this project is that three rec centers, one is at pellagra. When is at betty and when is it hamilton weve been partnering with Elementary Schools were kids come over kfive and they are getting 45 minutes of tennis instruction and then about 45 minutes to an hour of swim work assistant my stop is actually working with the Elementary Schools and we know kids and were feeding them and its been really really successful. Division here is the graduates from that program the kids most serious move on to Golden Gate Park through middle school and so its High School Readiness and tennis. Our athletic outcome is more kids of color playing tennis in high school. So we are investing in this program at the Elementary School level this year. The its going well. More Program Coordination for citywide sickness and citywide fitness and wellness i think we offeri think now 35 free zumba classes per week theres one out right outside the civic center as i was walking in for budget these are all over the city in every district. Theyre very very well attended and were trying to do more of that but we need to be able to kind of scale this we need a little more investment in that and lastly, its a small amount of money but i added it because im very proud of it. Sam San Francisco has become the help a baseball for all movement national. That is giving girls the chance to play baseball. 100,000 girls before High School PlayLittle League baseball. By the time they get to high school is down to 1000. We hosted the last summer, we hosted the National Baseball for all tournaments. This time a team of girls will be going to rockford illinois, the rockford teacher peaches to compete in the national torment against other girls and this is serious baseball. This is really extremely awesome competitive baseball. As a result, now our San FranciscoLittle Leagues have allgirls divisions and article girls teams. To invest a little more in that program. We are going to makeim doubling down but were going to increase our funding and civic center plaza. We are working with several other city agencies who know about this. Were bringing significant investment to civic center between the playground project and the zumba in america scores, and i think this is a space that just needs to be continue to be program. Were working with a lot of Community PartnersHunters Point family, downtown street. The civic center cbd. We just feel like we need to do more in the space its not just a plaza is 1600 new Housing Units go up around here its also a neighborhood park. Lastly, when you do a better job of telling our story a little bit, our history, our culture, and there some new Awesome Technology out and about. Our technology is okay. Its not as good as i think it should be given that we are San Francisco and this is going to enable us to deliver an app with a lot of Interpretive Services and also make people more aware of our programs. Which we want to invest in. Stewardship. We have a number of investments in the strategy. We want to expand our Green Acres Program which is currently at [inaudible] for those of you that dont know, these are high school teenagers. Its a ninemonth program of environment all education and Youth Development these kids get a stipend. They get funding for attendance and for doing certain things and they become
