Parks and places of communicated and thanks to the mayor and the department of technology and supervisor farrell and google. We had a very very unique partnership that was able to bring wifi to our most heavily used parks and squares. Parks in particular are really important way of life and quality of life and so is connectivity. Bringing those two things together in a project like this is right on target with what San Francisco is and wants to be. Its all about breaking apart the divide. The people with expensive data plan can have access to information and economy. This is really breaking down the Digital Divide and giving people across the spectrum the opportunity to information and giving them mobility and freedom. Particularly by investing in connectivity in park spaces we are also ensuring the connection to Digital Inclusion opportunities and parks are designed for all neighborhoods. People are on the move. They are no longer chained to their desk tops at home. People can accomplish a lot and we prefer them being here an enjoying the outdoors and nature. Given all the mobile community and mobile information thats available. We thought it was important to make it for our parks acceptable for everyone and give everyone the opportunity to live and to work and be at the parks at the same time. Our full mission in life is to give them access to the internet, give them access to information. In San Francisco you dont have to be bottled up in an office. You can be around and enjoy your work anywhere. Its great for the local community here and it means a lot to me. In the park, you are people that can teach you about the trees in the park and you can go to parks and recreation. Org and having wifi in our parks makes it more accessible. If you want more information about how to enjoy wifi in San Francisco parks, go to all right.

I want to thank them for their hard work and reengaging with us and talking through those concerns and coming to agreement with a good thank you very much. Colleagues if theres no other questions mr.

Still allow an increase of about 10. 8 million or 13. 1 in the province budgeted we do not recommend any reductions for the proposed budget and 17acting as either standard the department doesnt concur with these recommendations on page 15 of our report thank you. Colleagues any questions or budget analyst with about . And i entertain a motion to accept the budget recommendations . Moved and seconded. We can take that without objection [gavel] up next, naomi kelly is here. We will do office of city minister, ms. Kelly the barman of homelessness after here and will go to police. Good afternoon im sorry good morning supervisors. Naomi kelly city administrator. We have not got in agreement with the budget analyst and i think this is the first time in my time as being city administrator. We have agreed as of last week to three and 64. 339 and cuts. We are in disagreement over 495 canopy suit comes down to three positions. Two of them are with our to contact Compliance Officers with the office of labor standards and enforcement. I think i should point out in the last two years there have been four corridor passed by the board of supervisors that would increase the workload with the office of labor standards and enforcement it every thing from the formal retail corridor, their chance corridor, minimum Wage Ordinance and the parental paid leave ordinance. In fiscal year 14, at the end of the year was about 110 cases opened in the last 10 years corridor and outreach to workers we ended with a caseload of 214 case good i think its very important to add new contact Compliance Officers we can help with the rollout of the paid parental leave ordinance. Everything from outreaching to businesses, a reaching to workers, establishing rules which were going to affect in january 27. Thats a heavy workload to do between now and then. Its not that we can absorb this work back into existing contracts because as you just heard, they have a huge caseload from the existing laws that they need to address. This, by addressing it in staffing closing about as fast as possible, that is money for workers who have not gotten the correct minimum wage, not got out there. That is money that does not go back to the city because back to the worker to rectify if they were not given their fair wage. So, i would argue that you please adopt our allow for these two positions to be passed. Second, other position is the own 933, the basic identity 0933 with a Digital Service didnt come a which is a new division i discussed this last week that would be looking at how do we create a new team that looks at , how do we provide Better Services to the residents of San Francisco be looking at the processes at doing our business with the city and county of San Francisco online. How do we streamline those processes . A good example of the opposite shortterm rentals. How do we streamline the registration process so that we can encourage more and more people were doing shortterm rentals to register in a sufficient way. How do wemany people want to come and get birth certificates or marriage certificate. Can you do it online . Dog licenses. Can we get dog licenses online versus takeup time to come down to city hall figuring out the maze of bureaucracy, and then finding those license. Many working people do not have the luxury to take off during the Business Hours to come and do this. How do we make the services of San Francisco more accessible to the residence in the first of San Francisco and not as accessible as in the convenience of doing it online, but this language efficiencies, disability making it accessible for Disability Access and much more. So, in the next year, when i want to focus on again is as i said, how do we make just starting with those programs in the city administrators office. Dog licenses. Items either the county Clerks Office whether its marriage certificates, birth certificates, death certificates, and also opposite shortterm rentals. How do we focus and make those services more efficient to the residence and tourist of San Francisco. I would hope that you would approve the 0933. Thank you very much miscalculation would back in a second. Mr. Rose, go to report, please . Yes. Members of the committee, on page 7 of our report our total recommended general Fund Reductions in 1617 re 57. 333. In 17 and 18, the total is 732. 269. So, supervisors, let me clarify the two recommendations that the department disagrees with. The first one is on page 9 of our report. On the Digital Services Program First of all were recommending approval of two of three requested you positions. So, we absolutely believe this is an essential function and we are recommending two of three. The one position that we do not believe is justifiedlet me mention the two positions that were recommending on iasbusiness analyst and a project manager. The one position that we do not believe is justified is a manager five position, and we note that according to the department of Human Resources, jobthe actual job description, the manager five is responsible for managing divisions of medium to large size. This Digital Services program has only three proposed employees. We are recommending approval of two of the three. So, we do not believe that the manager of five position is justified. I would be happy to respond to any questions. I can go to the next one. However the Committee Want to do this okay. So, in terms of just to be clear, on page 9 we are talking about the entire line item here that the 239 savings that youre talking about in the Digital Services, and then that is correct. That is just one position. Understood. The ones in dispute on the contact compliance with oh lse, this is the one 18 and 339. Thats a good two army to just clarify thats fine. I understand. Okay so, colleagues, we have a discussion here and would have to make a decision. I will note just on the outside, we agreed upon is not an agreement right now. Quickly we can get through committee. If not we have one more matter of committee that can break a logjam 01 way or another. If we need to but hopefully we can get it done without that. Mr. Rose mr. Chairman can i make one statement on the contact compliance position please again we are fully supportive. Were recommending those position. We are stating their vacant positions to fill the vacant positions. Thats why we are so, even though this is a reduction we are providing as a matter of fact, our recommendation provides for reducing attrition savings. That means to increase the salaries in order that they can fill the vacant positions. So, our statement to you is you should not in our judgment, you should not add new positions when you have existing vacant positions. And we are providing the necessary funds to fill those positions. If you accept our recommendation. Thank you mr. Rose. Supervisor kim im sorry mr. Rose. Back to director kelly, just want to ask again, you approved two out of the three position to use out of their position wasnt necessary because it is in a mediumsize organization so that level you disagree with that level of pay and classification . But you also feel this could be filled by existing vacant positions . No. Theres two separate recommendations supervisor kim. The first one you refer to is the Digital Services program and youre absolutely right. We have recommended approval of two of the three new positions. The reason why we recommended the disapproval of this manager position is because according to dhr, its not our judgmentas you stated, itthat position is just justified from medium to high level organizations it is only three employees in this entire organization. It doesntwe did not create the Human Resources classification. With respect to contact and Compliance Officers are we are recommending against two of those, only because there are seven vacant positions. There are seven vacant contact Compliance Officer positions currently. How many are actually filled . , the ftes are currently filled of the seven vacant therefore filled with temporary positions and the other remaining ones were actively recruiting right now in this interview set up how many total contact Compliance Officers are there within [inaudible] 18. Of the 18 seven are vacant whether taking full and seven vacant . Of the 18 there is other seconds seven vacant for a filled with people right now. Right. Im trying to figure out if you have 18, 7, or if there seven vacant of the 18 . Of the 18 positions, seven of them are technically vacant but god for that are filled with temporary positions yes im sorry supervisor kim, i want to clarify what we did in our recommendation because the department was stating that they do not have sufficient fulltime salary funds to fill all the vacant positions. So, we listen to that statement and we made a recommendation now before you to reduce attrition savings. By reducing attrition savings, that means were increasing the salaries needed to fill the vacant positions. So, its just a pure calculation. Anyone can dispute the calculation. If you accept our recommendation, what you would be doing instead of creating a new position you be feeling vacant position. Can i askim sorry that i will come back to you so you can respond to mr. Roses comments but if i can just ask one more question. So, there is currently seven vacant positions of which are city administrator has said theres four filled temporarily. This three vacant positions, 2 new requested positions of which you are saying you may not need because we just fill those three. The two positions, what month is a pickdoes it begin . My understanding october 1 the ms. Kelly of the can respond and i have some followup questions. Just to be attrition come i think if we set something to make you think it was with other standards and enforcement made of in a different division. We do have the funds to fund those position. I was a little lost on the last argument may we can just talk offline on that. , but back to the Digital Service positioned in the own night three days, i want to make it very clear to the board of supervisors that dhr approved this level of position because its not just a mediumsize department in the budget. The complexity and the skill set thats needed to put together a program of this nature. So, you need someone with a higher level of leadership and skills that this was something dhr approved at this level opposition and i think i should note and put that out there. Supervisors, just to clarify. Supervisor kim, dhr is the way it goes. You know this. The department requested a position. They then discuss it with dhr and dhr says, no, you dont need level of that position. The department goes back to dhr and they say, yes, we do need a. I understand. Okay. We approve it. Thats the way it happens. The bottom line is, theres three positions in this department. You dont need that high level of a position. So, coming back to ms. Kelly, i know that you had mentioned that there is almost a double of open cases now due to the lack of staffing. But i wasnt aware of that there are three more positions to fill, and tonight asking for two more on top of that. I just want to understand if you do really need two additional, if these three additional wouldnt help with those remaining cases . That three additional, not only do we have these ordinance we also the billing wage unit doing with attrition in those cases that need to happen. There is a huge caseload that we have to address. So, those existingjust the 18 can help with existing caseload. Thats not adding on a new corridor. So i strongly feel that we need two more positions to help with the increasing number of legislation that is being passed to effectively implement those pieces of legislation could with a fork every workers, their pathway to become permanent employees we picked were working on having now rate. If you have three remaining positions is it real realistic youll higher off i by october of this year . Belfry. If we get two more we can start the hiring process until october. Correction we should make at least those two remaining is made we should start them at a later date that october of 2016. If you want people to item by over 2016. The remaining two . For the remaining two have them just give us a realistic timeframe so that it we can make that a amendment i think thats fine so those are my remaining questions. I overhauled to support sb nails make sure theres enough staff to do with contract compliance. I think thats incredibly important in the door as much legislation to protect our workers and we do want make sure those legislations are enforced. If we come up with a realist realist at hiring remaining to give an theres two vacant positions that would be what i would like to see forward. I do a lot of questions about the Digital Services program. I do appreciate the presentation did. I think this is hard because i like to say some of the tangible goals and outcomes that would be produced by the end of the following year for us to evaluate this program was moving forward in the right direction. So, i will have some further questions on that later on in the process. Supervisor yee ms. Kelly, just to clarify, you are saying that the three remaining vacancies, vacant positions could be filled by october . Yes if you adapt to additional youll give us a realistic time that could be those could be filled . Im sorry. I cannot hear the question. If you were to have two more additional people that would be Compliance Officers, you are saying by january that would be realistic in terms of filling those additional two . I think with supervisor kim and if i heard her right delaying the start, when those pictures rooms with come on. We would have access to those positions in january. Have them as a. 75 and. 5 fte which means we could not suck the hiring process until january. Okay. Colleagues, any further questions or discussion . I would just say for my perspective and supervisor kim if you have questions about it, i want to be able to support the departments certainly the contract compliance withi believe were all sensitive to i want to support in terms of Digital Services, this is actually something ive been wanting and asking for for long time and hope they would move towards just a more consumer friendly City Government if you will. I think this is the step in that direction to so something i definitely want to be supporting as well. I know that we discussion with that supervisor tang thank you. I think for the contract Compliance Officers i would agree with supervisor kims suggestion on the later start date in january. I think it sounds like we might all be in agreement on that. In terms of the other manager position, i would just say that if some of the comments i made last hearing i completely understand why we need someone at that salary level to attract the talent we hope so that we can transform the way we do Business Online as a City Government. We are not very good at what we do online. So, to try to get more people to be able to file permits or to apply for things, look up information online, i think we do need someone who has probably some privatesector experience. I dont know. Someone who heavily has not been so entrenched in our City Government second us four. So, ideally, i think we would have loved to seen someone ready a lower position level but i understand this a huge undertaking that we are trying to embark upon. So, i would actually support the program them i can sorry, the Digital Services program that manager position. Okay. Supervisor kim thank you. I do think were in agreement on the contract Compliance Officers beginning in january. I think thats incredibly important. I do continue have questions about the Digital Services program. Not because of dir. Kelleys leadership yet i think that she does a tremendous job come up but i have in general just over the last six years been skeptical of the citys ability to deliver Digital Online services but also our ability to attract and actually this is not the fault of the city. We happen to live in a region where we have an amazing number of companies that are attracting the best engineers and programmers. Its frankly just very difficult for the city to compete at you had a higher salary range. I understand the justification for a higher salary range. I think its needed. I did a more tangible outcomes that we know what ongoing to be achieved in your one, year two, so the we have a way of evaluating the Digital Service program is actually meeting the needs are city residents. I like overall concept. I was more of our services, my. I just wanted able understand how the city can actually deliver to the three positions in me that conversation can continue but i want to express that. Supervisors, i think thank you for recommending that we need a high level position fourwe need them with the leadership and skill set to bring this to a point where we can get you everyfor the next year or two we the metrics and what we plan i think accomplish, i think we look the federal government as an example when president obama will doubt the Affordable Care act the and website just completely collapsed which was very important for all of us in the nation to get on the website. He brought in a very High Level Team to do exactly what we are trying to do here in San Francisco. Ifthis is really infancy stages of our time to develop this and just put this first year were really laying the foundation. Everything from setting up processes to the look and feel , to the technical architecture of our website and the interfaces within the different departments. If i was to say, heres what i want to accomplish this first year it would exactly that. Plus looking at it in the city administrators role of areas where we could help immediately where doing a lot of thinking about officer shortterm rentals in getting online registration because many of those lightly were wrongly, are saying, many of those renting shortterm rentals are saying, well the registration process is too cumbersome. I want them to have that excuse anymore. So we are working through how to make that online registration happen so they can comply with these laws that were passed by the board of supervisors. Other things we here just if youre going into the neighborhood and the residence, id like a dog walkers and inefficient man. Can wei would love to have that be like one of the number one priorities to make that happened this year. Other things with the county Clerks Office. Marriage certificates, death certificates. Birth certificates. Having that in a more userfriendly way where you can do it online. So, thosei would focus on at this first year so that there would beyou can see the benefits of how having this program and having someone with the right skill set can deliver this in ain the time frames we promised to the board of supervisors dynasty in your frustration supervisor kim which is why i want a separate team within city administrators office. The timing. Supervisor tammy supervisor yee in regards to what youre trying to do i dont think i am have any issues with the city trying to do this. The question i would have is we have a whole Department Come at this it, and we talked about this just trying to consolidate as much as possible so that were not having different departments doing their own thing. It just feels to me like its moving in the opposite direction. So, what your comments around that . Pretty soon one of every department to mature as insane, we need this to this is not take away the department technologies work load. They were actually working handinhand with us. The video much of the technical architecture of this. This is bigger then maybe the Digital Service is a confusing name. This is really about the public experience and the Customer Experience more than just setting of the technical architecture. Its going into those departments and saying, what is the business processes hear . How can we streamline this . With shortterm rental summits actively working with the treasury Tax Collectors Office and their process with a patrick guy in the opposite shortterm rental would be assessor recorder and how do we streamline our different processes so that it just one. Thats bigger than an it person role. That is having a change agent, someone looking at actual paper processes not automating something that is not sufficient and going across different departments to do it. Again, this is like this endeavor will take more than three position could its working handinhand with the department of technology. Not taking work away from the department of technology and they should be quite frankly focusing just our fundamentals, network. Fixing our network. Fixing managing our data. Managing our internet. Managing our telephone thats like the core business of the department of technology. You know, im inclined to want Something Like this to happen. Its true that you go out in the field people talk complain all the time about oh my god, i cant figure this thing out. However, theres a piece of it where, given that youre going to have this unit, are you going to accomplish that were not . I dont know. Are you asking us to put this to the ongoing . Im wondering if we could put some qualifiers around this insane but give it a shot for one year budget it for one year and come back our next budget cycle and say, this is what weve done. So that at least early, everything were comfortable you guys actually have would be moving in the right direction and accomplishing something the problem with that another deal to two counts 01 your position. Not to get the right person to come in and want to be able toi wont have the right skill set or be able to recruit the right person to come and take this job it is just a oneyear job theres no guarantee that i might have a longerterm position. So that makes me a lot uncomfortable. To do that. [inaudible] out there is if i would ask for the position of authority and then let me go to the other enterprise departments to say, because people believe in this program, from the Good Government efficiency standpoint, lets see back in recruit from them. 12 fund the position below me have the Position Authority and give back the mr. Chairman and the committee, i think thats a reasonable compromise because then the general fund then you have a general fund savings from this position. If the committee decides that the position is necessary in the first place, but if the committee will decide to have this position, and with the Department Just proposed what ms. Kelly just propose is to fund it using Nongeneral Fund monies. Okay i better take [inaudible] this kelly youre proposing Position Authority but no Budgetary Authority from the general fund years one and two on this position . Yes okay i can live with that. Supervisor tang that proposal would be fine with me. I would just say that i havent seen our Small Business portal launched in the last what, year or two i probably wouldve been very skeptical of this project but just seen without was able to do with the public, i do believe that we have the talent and we will need to attract more talent to make this happen citywide. So, actually, i really hope everyone has used that portal to see whats possible here. Okay. With that, colleagues if i can summarize potentially our thoughts, is that we would accept a budget Analyst Recommendations on our city administrators budget with the exception of allowing the Position Authority for the just the position of the Digital Services program and then also, not accepting the contract Compliance Officers cuts, except, we are going to have them start january 1. Colleagues, is that consistent . Yes ms. Kelly, is that something that works for you . Colleagues, can have a motion to that effect . Moved and seconded. Do we need any clarification over here at all . Okay. We can take it without objection. Supervisor kim . So moved [gavel] thank you. I know mr. Kaczynski zero department of homelessness. I think we have a defined this agreement hears we can work on that. Good morning, supervisors and thank you for calling me here today. We appreciate the work we been doing with theand very close to have a few areas where we disagree. Just to. Actually, the position, 095320933 which is the Deputy Director for external affairs position, as well as the transferring a position from an 0923 282917 per director of communications and Strategic Planning. All other recommendations we are now in agreement with, including pleasing on reserve the funding which would be available should the sales tax measure passed. Okay. Colleagues from any questions write up . Mr. Rose, we go to your report please yes good demos of the committee, the two disagreements with the first one is on page 25. What we are stating is a recommended downward substitution for one Deputy Director three position. With a salary of 180,000. To a manager five position, with a salary of 168. 049. The Mayors Office is requested three Deputy Director three positions in the new department of homelessness in Supportive Services of which one is a new position and to our substitutions of existing positions. The proposed downward substitution is consistent with the function of the proposed position, which oversees the communications and external affairs and supervisionthe supervisor seven staff. So thats the basis of our recommendation on page 25 and the other disagreement, actually, theres partial agreement on this. Let me clarify. On page 26, we are recommending a savings. Theres two separate line items but professional and specialized services. We are recommending a savings of 96. 178. The department does agree with 63, 326 of that 96. 178. They disagree with the balance, which is 32 852 of that 96 170. What weve stated is, to reduce professional context to account for twitter 50,000 in contra costa Strategic Planning and Needs Assessment and the downward substitution from one term manager to position to support this Strategic Planning Needs Assessment process with salary and mandatory Fringe Benefits of 186. 674 which we added by the Mayors Office of technical adjustment to the one new limited term, 29. 17 Program Support analyst position. Salary and benefits Fringe Benefits of 150. 822. The specter the temporary salaries, which is not in fiscal year 1617. That is in fiscal year 1718 on the top of page 26 on the righthand side, the department disagrees with that recommendation. Thats a savings of 33,000. Our recommendation is to reduce and achieve that savings temporary salaries to reflect the difference in the salary and fringe benefit costs due to the downward substitution from the one manager to position to be submitted by the Mayors Office of technical adjustment. This is when 29. 17 Program Support analyst position as we have recommended. College, any questions or comments for mr. Rose was that . Okay. Ill just voice my opinion here. I think given the amount of work thats going in here creating a new department we want to give our department is much in my opinion, leeway and authority as possible and were talking a small amount of cuts. I would be in favor of accepting mr. Roses recognition except for these two positions to mr. Kaczynski has articulated but what further discussion, colleagues. Supervisor tang i would support that as well. The two positions. Okay. Can i entertain a motion than . The with no other questions . Moved and seconded. We can take that without objection. [gavel] thank you mr. Kaczynski. Congratulations on being done with your first budget season. Okay lease but not last a Police Department. Thank you for being you. In deference to supervisor avalos is been patiently waiting or 01 allow him to speak before we get moving or in cases other commitments. Thank you. I been paying attention working and following along. So thank you for your work. I just want to say that this idea about the reserve is something that im still going to be pursuing. I have actually reached out to the chief to make sure we can have conversations before july 19, when the board will have the budget in our hands. At that time, we can make a motion about doing a reserve. I did come out, i think on june 1, when the mayor first announced the budget. The board chamber, i said we would do look at doing a reserve and i said 29. Having a look at work closely at the budget and seen to enter nine dollars at about 577 million budget, and how much is for wages and benefits, 200 million seemswould be too sizable to allow the department to carry out its work towards reforms making sure that their implement it throughout the department, so i will be making an effort for a smaller reserve. But, one that can work towards holding the department accountable to agreedupon metrics about how we measure reform happening in the use of force, and employment of crisis intervention teams, at the precinct level, not just training, but employment of those teams. As well as, looking at officers, how officers are hired, promoted, especially laterals. And looking at disciplinary action in the event of racial profiling. So, those are the measurements were putting in place and ill be working to make sure that they are really specific and measurable metrics that can be before us and we wouldif for making the reserve at the full board, it would require a hearing at the full board that the public. I was just talking with one of the commanders, commander lee that could be something we could do as a joint meeting between the board of supervisors and the Police Commission because really the whole effort of reform should be directly under their purview. What i think it makes sense that we have a joint commission to do that. So, his mother reserve, i think, would be one that can make sure the department can have flexibility in his budget to be able to carry out the responsibility of carrying out the reforms and ensure that the department is able to do the work of its contribution to Public Safety in San Francisco. Thank you supervisor avalos. With that, to our Police Department and thank you for being here and for your continued work on the budget. Good morning supervise the deputy chief hector on behalf of chief tony chaplin. Supervisors, that apartment has been discussing the recommendation internally and also with the budget and was office and we developed an alternate proposal that we want to submit to you. Are prepared to submit to you today for your consideration. With that i like to call up cfo Kathryn Mcguire to discuss the details of this proposal. Thank you very much. Good morning supervise. Catherine acquired from sfpd. So, the concept of our proposal is essentially that we would cut our Health Benefits costs in year 1 x 500,000 dollars, and then increasing that to 1 million in year two with an additional 89,000 149 the we have available intervening balance for Public Safety building furniture fixtures and any budget. Then, finally, we would realize 1 million in current years salary savings we would be able to offer to the committee at this point. Then, so that is alternative proposal and were happy to entertain any questions that you might have. I think that deputy chief sinus is able to speak to the items regarding reform that we are not that apartment is not prepared to accept those to be put on reserve. Okay. Colleagues come any questions right now . Im sure well have discussion you. Any questions at the second . This arose when we go to your report. Is a chairman and members of the committee, as you know the recommendations start on page 17 of our report. Let me state that the Police Department continues to disagree with every single one of our recommendations. My understanding is that the Mayors Office and the Police Department proposal for alternative recommendations total 1. 5 million in 1617 and twitter 50,000 and 1718. I could be wrong on that but thats our understanding. Ive not seen this proposal in writing myself. As compared to ourand that compares to our recommended reductions of 2. 1 million and 1617 and 1. 79 and 1718. The reductions proposed by the Mayors Office and the Police Department did not reflect our analysis and recommendations to the Police Departments proposed budget in any way shape or form. We consider approval of these alternative productions get odyssey, to be a policy matter for the committee. Further, we continue to recommend a reserve 01 . 4 million in fiscal year 1617 percentages related to Police Reform measures. Let me make one other comments about it. If it apartment is now stating to this committee that they can give you 1 million in salary savings, think about that statement supervisors. You know that theres a lot more than 1 million if they are stating here today that they can achieve 1 million worth of salary savings. In the exact same manner theyve achieved millions of dollars, two, three, four, 5 billion of salary savings the last 45 years. So, taking a milliondollar offering 1 million to this committee in my judgment is not a very good proposal. One other point, supervisors, and this relates to the Police Department. Regarding the dist. Atty. s budget, we were told yesterday by the Mayors Office that the mayor cementing technical adjustments of 1. 99 and the dist. Atty. 1617 budget, which includes one senior positions related to officer involved shootings, please misconduct and conviction reviews. These new positions would cost 2. 5 million in 1718. We that no one opportunity whatsoever to analyze the justification for these 14 new positions can therefore, we recommend the budget and finance committee places do expenditures in the District Attorneys Office of 1. 99 in fiscal year 1617 and 2. 5 million in fiscal year 1718 on Budget Compliance Committee reserve if the committee decides to approve those positions so that the Mayors Office can submit a cover the plan presents new resources related to Police Reform measures and so the budget and legislative analyst can view such expenditures and report back to the budget and finance committee. Ill be happy to respond to any questions thank you mr. Rose. Supervisor tang actually had a quick question for the Police Department if you had a hard copy of your alternative proposal . I believe something is on its way. Thank you. Okay. Supervisor yee i like to hear your response 40 overtime reduction that the budget analyst is recommending because maybe im following his logic in terms of the reason why we wouldve had the need for more overtime in general about the special events. Its because of the lack of Police Officers or the under number that we want to get to some of which is the 1971 and it seems like this year between this year and next her with all the Academy Classes we will be catching up which means that it, its logical to assume that the need for overtime is going to be reduced. Supervisor, im happy to address that question. So, i lead a rate that the request we made in our budget was a 3. 6 million move of money from existing budget into the overtime budget that is reflective of the amount of money that we spend on court they come in and when the city and i think i said this in the last hearing so pardon the repetition, i can be when the city transferred over to the new payroll system, payroll coding changed, and so where our payroll for court date was getting premium pay previously, it is now hitting overtime. So, we are now changing the budget to reflect that change. So the 3. 6 billion dollar increase in overtime budget reflects that change. It doesnt actually reflect an increase in overtime or an expenditure in general. But to address your question that further, we havei have a slide if the our Media Services can switch us over there. It shows thati can just walk through this it doesnt change over. Our use of overtime is 26 for defense. Court appearances represent 22 . Arrests are 21 get investigation 17 , Ongoing Police operations such as Homeless Outreach and those sorts of things is 7. 8 . Dignitary visits is 4. 5 and Critical Incident response such as what involvement is 1. 7 . So, as you can see you dance dont actually constitute a preponderance of our overtime usage and we dont have any backfill so to speak of officers we dont do that. Such as maybe the Fire Department or other Department Might need to with the sheriffs Department Might need to fill a fixed post. Mr. Chairman, members of the Committee Supervisor yee, on page 18 of our report i wont read this explanation, but let me state having listened to that apartment, nothing whatsoever changes in the expedition as to why we have recommended a reduction of 1. 6 Million Dollars in the overtime account with related mandatory benefits. Okay. Colleagues, any further discussion were questions . We are going to wait to see on that out of deference the proposal back. So, we will be hearing when we go into recess for 5 min. And is that a reasonable time to we will be in recess for 5 min. And we will be back. Thanks. [gavel] [recess]. Welcome back from recess everyone. Ronald gregory scheduled board of supervisors meeting for june 22, 2016. I should say budget and finance committee of the board of supervisors. We are back hearing item 2 and three that i was a quickly on the record, the party had Public Comment for our budget this year for two and three so we are not going to have more Public Comment was a i asked our clerk to make sure were clarified on that on the record. With that, we are Police Department up perhaps to our cfo, could you work this through the discussion on item here. So, as i mentioned before, the initialwe have Health Benefits cut of about 500,000 in the first year, which would increase to 1 million in the second year. He 8001 94 thats available froma remaining balance on project that was for the furniture and fixtures in the Public Safety building. Then, 1 million in salary savings the current year that would be available for use and that is the summary of our proposal. Okay. Before any questions, mr. Rose im looking at your reports. I want to be cleared. So, your recommendations in year one total 2,000,000. 065229 . So, the departments basically suggesting 1589 of that. Just think about numbers absolutely you propose basically 1. 7 in year two and a proposing one flat correct so can you talk about in your one recommendation the ongoing savings versus the onetime savings that youre recommending here . Either broad level or what sure. On page 18 of our report where we talked about actually, the first recommendation on page 18, we are talking about ongoing savings ofand this is the overtime. So that would be ongoing savings which is about 1. 6 million. That would continue the ongoing savings. That is the overtime chunk, correct . Correct. I would mention to the committee if you think about it, the department had spent 2. 9 million in overtime this year for the super bowl. There is no super bowl next year. All of the balance of the savings mr. Chairman, our onetime savings. That includes the attrition savings on the bottom of page 18 and that amount was approximately 20,000. Do you see that on the bottom of page 18 . On page 19, there is programmatic budgets good thats 114,000. Again, thats onetime savings. We point out that the mayors 1617 budget for the Body Camera Program of 3. 3 million is two and 73. 423 more when the amount requested by their common in 553,000 more than the amount budgeted in 1516. Then, ken attrition savings of 183,000 that is to account for delays in hiring timelines. Good this is just one time for a hiring position. Thats why we said its a onetime savings as opposed to ongoing. Again, the same thing on that that was 183,000 in the last one 119,000 on the bottom of page 19, again, thats for hiring timelines. So thats all right. That is helpful i would also point out, supervisors, we do have the recommendations. I think we can explain these for putting monies on the reserve, on pages 20 and 21 and 22 report and be happy to respond to any questions in that regard. Just, in summary, when the Department Offers salary savings of 1 million, which they did, and here in 201314, that apartment had surplus salaries of 4. 5 million, and 1415 3. 75 and 1516 2 million, to offer 1 million and even our recommendations, we are leaving millions of dollars on the table with our very conservative recommendations. Thank you mr. Rose. Supervisor kim thank you mr. Rose. I apologize for making you repeat these numbers again. But you had mentioned salary savings over the last three years amounting to way above the 1 million that the Police Department is offering this. Could you repeat 03 numbers again . Absolutely. And 13, 14, 4,500,000. This is surplus salary savings in the three years. 1314, 3 million and 1516, julian. 467 4472. At last, that 1516 is even with the 3 million, or 2. 9 million, with the extra overtime for the super bowl. Got it. Thank you mr. Rose. So, back to the Police Department. Given that in the last three years you had much larger surplus salary savings at four, three and 2 million, could you explain why youre only offering 1 million in return this following your . Supervisors, unfortunately im not familiar with the numbers that the legislative analyst is citing. We often see those salary savings but theyre offset by other costs within what his character over over one of total salary budget. So, when we have shortfalls in other locations that in those salary savings make up for. With regards to 1516, we are projecting and it is reflected in the budget analyst report, were projected 18. 39 cost and 5016 for overtime of which, yes, if you were to look back out super bowl, that brings us to 15. 4 million in the current year. Our budget is 15. 1 million. So, with respect to overtime, that is the proposal. Can you explain your disagreement on the attrition savings that the dla report has attributed the 20,000 in september, 119,000 and the 183,000 . Again we pull up to a little bit higher level when were balancing our budget. Were looking at right now and 1516 we have 38 physicians budgeted for attrition. We currently we have 37 positions of baking. Moving into the new fiscal year with the positions have been proposed in the budget. Thats five more positions. This would increase our attrition rates by four positions so we would only be able towe would not be able to hire those positions and were getting in the budget because we already have so many positions filled that we would be able to make those higher so, if we approve these attrition reductions it would prevent the Police Department from hiring for officers, for replacement officers . For of those five positions for civilian physicians . For our [inaudible] and if it is civilian four of five civilian positions and one is managing some of the Reform Efforts . Four positions are [inaudible] related what does that mean to be reformulated . Meeting a result for reform and two at mit positions that support analytical functions and or development of a number of cold walls for reform. One is managing reform response to reform and really project managing all the changes that are happening at is done through civilian, not through one of this one officers of the Police Department . It reports with deputy chief and so project manager still is not necessarily it doesnt necessarily have to be is one function. So this would delay the hire of those positions . Correct okay, thank you mr. Chairman, just to the chair, our recommendation is based on the report of 17 vacancies the department currently has. Thats what they reported to us. Its merely saying, this is how long its been it take to hire these positions and to adjust the attrition accordingly. Its recognizing reality, not sort of a budget number. So its really very practical recommendation. Okay. Colleagues from any other conversations were questions . Perhaps supervisor yee before going to move forward with this, im comfortable not taking the recommendations of the budget analyst in regards to these particular positions that supervisor kim was just discussing. I am comfortable supporting the analysts recommendation with the overtime and the rationale for that is that its true were not have a super bowl that the cost of stars 2. 6is a 2. 6 . Of overtime. So, this is not 2. 6 that hes recommending but 1. 6. So i am comfortable with that recommendation. Okay. Supervisor kim no. [inaudible] supervisor tang thank you. Ill just in response to supervisor yees recognition i think not overtime issue i do understand in terms of the change in the Accounting Program as well as i know the budget analyst p super bowl issue. However, we did have less officers back then, correct . Yes so we are going to more officers as we graduate more Academy Classes and so in terms of just saying that because we do not have the super bowl then we dont need to have the overtime for next year, i dont know if that really completely make sense. I do know if you can elaborate on that olivia ward . I be happy to sort of show you a little bit about her overtime actuals in the last few years. I have a slide sorry, i cant tell if its up. Only the Media Services can switch on the slide projector. We can see it here great. As you see the little small bars on top of the greater big blue bars represent that court page that we been talking about and so youll see and 1314 the actual court page that switch happened in the years of the court pay was actually 3. 2 million in that year and in so as you can see, our overtime for that year would have been was 13. 4 million. Then, we move into 1415 and its 14. 2 million in move into 1516 and its 15. 4 million. If you start factoring in was and those sorts of things that really is where a budget increases are happening. Were not talking about an increasei wish i actually had that slide to show you the number of hours that were working overtime and so as you can see, its not a huge increase in overtime that we are talking about. Were not talking about an increase in overtime in the budget either. Okay. I mean, i feel like the alternative proposal is very close to what the budget analyst had recommended. I understand the ongoing actually let me clarify. Is the alternative proposal to 1. 5 million you proposed in cuts, is that ongoing . Were just onetime . The 500,000 in health is ongoing. So thats the only one . Correct mr. Chairman, i just want to clarify one thing on our overtime proposed it is also still out the super bowl were talking about when we are talking about the change in yeartoyear from overtime. Which is there also be 160 more please officers in the street and even some of the slide earlier some amount of overtime is incurred just for routine police patrol. We think within addition of regular police and concerns certainly a change in the number of major events by not having the super bowl, that there will in fact be a decrease in overtime over the current year. We also believe our recommendation is account the shifting of court pay from premium pay into the overtime bundle. So we believe the overtime recommendation, because some amount of overtime and scheduling of overtime is discretionary in the Police Departments park. They have in prior years been able to bring the overtime down. Its been inching up her recent years as police tapping those up we would like to see a corresponding decrease in the overtime. Supervisor yee thank you for that expiration. That sort of hours looking at it logically. There isyou do not have the required number of Police Officers available, so you would need more overtime. I am inclined to , again, support the analysts recommendation. Its not to say that if this, going into the next year, if there is actually some evidence that you really need more overtime that wei think weve done this before where we ashley get a supplemental for overtime . In the past . So if that point would you feel like the budget amount is not enough and you really need more, and you just show us why you need it, i would be supporting a supplemental the right now, im not seeing that. Okay. Supervisor kim i was can it concur with supervisor yee. I do support the budget legislative analyst recommendation on overtime and i agree if theres additional need the Police Department can as they have in the past come to the full board for a supplemental. I do support actually the attrition reduction. Im that i dont think at Budget Committee but they seem to be reasonable requests that being said, im happy to prove move forward with the overtime recordation put forward by the dla. Supervisor tang heres an idea media compromise. What if we put that overtime amount on reserve . Budget committee reserve and if we were to do that, will be the impact of that we pick the overtime amount on reserve i guess that could be a good customize actually because its either that or we come for supplemental anyway. So because is my slide shows, we are projecting 15. 4 this year. Our budget is 15. 1. So, we would beif the budget comes down by 1. 7, 1. 6 million, they will be coming back for supplemental anyway so we put on reserve were coming back to you to talk through those things. We can do that supervisor yee my preference would be that we dont put that piece on reserve because if we do theres now not available for anything else. I would be willing to take, instead of 1. 6 the budget analyst is suggesting, that we reduce it by 1. 1 so that ongoing will end up to be the same with the ongoing savings would benefit Health Payment of 1. 6. Supervisor yee could you articulate that one more time . If im just focusing on the ongoing, which the overtime would provide 1. 6 of ongoing savings, the Police Department suggested some other proposals which one of them is the budgeted Health Payment and i think the fringes change in which we said that this would be only piece that is ongoing. I thought that was one time but that is the ongoing peace the 500,000 . Either thousand and going to your 1 million in year two. Right so i am suggesting the compromise would be that we take 1. 1 of the overtime to be reduced instead of 1. 6. And that the net result would be pretty much the same of 1. 6 ongoing savings could okay. So, so im just trying to understand here just so we are could. 1. 1 on ot to reduce it by 1. 1. Thats in years one and two . Yes. Is there anything else . Sorry i believe to accept the 500,000 fringe change as proposed by the police about it and both budget Health Payment over the two years so a total of 1. 6 savings. Is that correct supervisor trini yee yes. Again, the recommendation on the budget analyst for reduction of the overtime is 1. 6. So im trying to get to a a similar figure that ongoing good so one way to do that is to accept the budget budgeted Health Payment or Fringe Benefits of 500,000 and to reduce the overtime by only 1. 1 million, which would still get you 1. 6. So that wouldso that would equivocate equate to 1. 6 and both years . Correct those are the only propose cuts for them . To our Police Department that would not accept the other cuts then that the but it i recently attempted to our department and budget analyst i like to communicate the impact about 1 million cut on overtime. We currently have the final class committed to the department that will bring us to that full mandate of staffing of 1971. With that final class, we will spend all of our salary dollars. The amount that is sane in uniform salary. With that that means we will not have in the past, when we come for supplemental appropriation, there is been no need to increase sources or increase the budget overall because we just move the money from salary savings to overtime. We wont be able to do that. So, we would have to be generating a new Million Dollars we come for back for supplemental appropriation, if we do do that. Supervisor kim thank you. With a 1 million in salary savings that you already have in your budget today, what would happen to that 1 million . You could not use that overtime . Im sorry. Thats and 1516 savings and that would be up to the mayor and the Controllers Office to be able to so salary savings goes back into the general fund . Correct i still feel comfortable moving forward with this given we have 160 new opposite. By the way my general preference we had as many officers as possible so we can reduce overtime. I think its important for us to have to fill out the department and the promises being delivered this year. So, for me its hard to justify the overtime requested a given the new officers and also given, as the bl eight pointed out the super bowl is not happening this a good i do feel comfortable with this and i also know the board has always supported a supplemental appropriation in the past with overtime. And i think that if you, and theres a justified reason for that that the board will support that. Supervisor weiner thank you. First of all, the 1971, were not going to hit that until very late in the fiscal year. Supper starting out the fiscal year 1971. Its not even close. If that were the case and of course i think were all in agreement that its better to have people staffed rather than lie on overtime good with the Fire Department and mandatory overtime is. We are fixing up at the 1971 is not going to be hit until the end of your and thats even assuming 1971 is a real number that i know we have a dispute on the board of supervisors on that issue. 1971 is a number set 30 years ago when we were smaller city but putting that aside it will not be hit after the late in the fiscal year. Yes, the department can always come back to us pray supplemental for overtime and we know how that goes. Whether its the surest opponent or any other time and coming midyear for supplemental and not a supplemental reallocating existing budget, but actually asking to tap into the reserves to Fund Overtime and there will be a whole melodrama at the board of supervisors about because no one will remember this vote today. This is responsible department could predict its own overtime and is coming back to the board of supervisors meeting year to tap into our Budget Reserve to ask for overtime. When you could have just done it during the normal budget prosecute well, they are asking the during the noble normal budget process to have that overtime because theyre not going to have the salaries to be able to shift over mid year. They are telling us that this is the overtime that there needed. Theyre willing to make concessions and i appreciate the department doing that. But i dont want to discuss in and asked her 5000 in overtime simply because we think its a good number for us to bring into the budget. We know obviously the super bowl theres no super bowl but we know theres many reasons growing demands in the department of parks under normal neighborhood trolls that all sorts of events and protests and festivals and other happenings in San Francisco with the department does not get cost recovery. We dont tell protests were street festivals, you have to start reimbursing the department for all the cost its not what we had those are not our values as their savior we pay for that out of the general fund and that appropriate thing. But when we start restricting or making it hard for the department to use [inaudible] what that means when the department has to put extra coverage for a protest worse festival or whatever other unpredictable thing may happen, that means we have fewer officers in our neighborhoods. So, i dont agree with this additional 500,000 in overtime cut. I think youll undermine the departments ability to good Public Safety in San Francisco. Supervisor avalos thank you. If i were the committee i would take the motion and if its not done here then it can be done at the full board and i do my melodrama. It seems like theres melodrama every meeting we have at the board of supervisors. I think this would this room was actually made to absorb melodrama. Theres a lot in the crevices of the word. So ive no problem with that happening. It just what we do here at the board of supervisors. And, i commend the department forand all of city hallforgetting us close to the 1971 number. We are not far away from the number because were actually now within striking distance of the next fiscal year to be will to choose 1971 and to me, that is significant can i think in the whole time ive been working at city hall weve only been there for a few months in 20092010. And we had a lot of retirements happened since then but we made a considerable effort over the years to make sure that we are at this place right now and so, as were hiring more officers were not in any to have as much overtime. I will than willing to roll the dice we can actually put a ceiling on it naturally to see the department and employee more effectively and more efficiently so that overtime wont be needed and we wont have to do a supplemental later on and hopefully, i will be in next year but i want to make sure that were setting up a High Standard for lever is coming in to make decisions on what the overtime budget should be and i think ratcheting down by today would be helpful. Thank you supervisor avalos. Colleagues on the not wanting to suggest that good i think were in a range zero dollar buys good thing is a little bit whatever the buckets go.
