Inherited because another Department Im not picking out any particular department, but other departments in this city werent doing the job they should have been doing, so now, were doing these jobs, and i think we should be doing this job, but does our budget reflect it . So id like more analysis around that particular issue because i dont want to go back to the Mayors Office and ever have to hear that we have to reduce our budget. Also on the issue of resources, where are our resources being spent . Are there outliers on our resources . The homeless in San Francisco or that population is an outlier. Were going to see that in the next few quarters, i anticipate, because were now doing a better job of trying to understand where resources should be going, but these are questions we need to be asking in the new year, so when the mayor asks us to reduce or budget, we can say well, mr.

As an individual, in terms of the commission, but as a commissioner with the rest of our colleagues here, i can understand and digest 1. 5 and three mill because that was similar to what the scenario was last year. I know were in a quote, unquote, robust economy and have been. I know theres some talk of budget and deficit, which i dont take lightly, as well. I know that deficits will occur, but i have a tough time of reacting in terms of

Mayor, madam mayor, whoever it is, were now doing homeless were doing some type of Homeless Outreach or our services are now, you know, expanding in all of these different ways. I dont know but just in the recent and maybe its just this time of year, but theres been a lot of calls related to pg e. So maybe its annual. Im not sure if its just this time of year that this happens. I dont know. But what are these outliers . Are we using this information and are we building the best budgets when it comes to budget time . Id like more information on the station 49 hander and how its reflected in our budget, and how its reflected in their budget, as well. I appreciate the job that you do, mr. Corso. I dont know how the city could possibly be

I dont know how the city could possibly be in a deficit given the place in our economy is with our unemployment at 4. 1 . I can only imagine the problems were going to have when we hit that downturn, because winter is coming. Absolutely.
