Fund the position from my salary savings for this current yearv, placing the full salary in the draft budget, for the board then to determine the efficacy of the position in june with some measurements and we will show you in advance to get your approval on. And then come june if the position does not hold as much value as you would expected it to, that salary could be removed from the departments budget. That is a problem i see. Once you hire someone, it is very hard and very difficult to actually not to say that youre going to terminate that position. We can hire them with the expectation that this is a Pilot Program to be determined by the board. Right. I guess the other question that it raises for me is what metrics are we using to say what the value of that extra employee would be for this purpose. And, so, not kind of understanding what those metrics would be would be hard. Would it be the number of engagements that they have, the number of additional legislation that they put ou

Well, thank you, everybody. And welcome. Happy thanksgiving and happy season of sharing and caring for each other. I just spent a wonderful morning with the Interfaith Council and their 15th anniversary of breakfast with quite a host of wonderful, wonderful people who care about the city and about the world. And while the theme was articulated as a very rich greening theme, i think we found out from many, if not all of the speakers, that the way we care about our earth is reflected in the way we care for each other first and foremost.

And, so, today im standing with people who have demonstrated their highest level of care for people, people who work and live and breathe the social safety net for everyone in our city. And i could not ever do my job as the mayor, nor i suggest any member of the board of supervisors, elected office who also have responsibility for caring about the quality of life for everyone, unless we had a caring leadership in our social saf

Here at the good will industry we are very grateful and one of our mission is to help people to create Job Opportunities for people who come here and work. So, one of the things that we care for is creating jobs in the city and preserving jobs in the city. So, last year we were able to have about 7,000 people just to come by and to shop for us and to provide Job Opportunities and training opportunities throughout our missions and our [speaker not understood].
