Present. Chairwoman moving on to item number two, opportunity for the public to comment on any members before this jurs jiks that jurin that are not on the agenda . I have a handout. Thank you. Chairman thank you. Just to note, member patoha just walked in. Good morning, my name is jerry drafter, and i served on the civil grand jury excuse me, as a civil grand jury member in 2015 16, and im a retired c. P. A. There are many new members and i thought it would be useful to hand out a copy of appendix with legislature underpining for the City Services auditor, and the department and the position. Seago is charged with overseeing the c. S. A. I allowed two section, sf100 and sf101 that outlines tasks that the c. F. A. Shall perform. And this is important, because there are tasks the c. F. A. May perform and tasks they shall perform. I will address what the c. F. A. Is required to porm and is not performing. If you look at section 101, and on the top there are three types of assessments. Im going to deal with number two, which deals with the measures of efficiency, including costs per unit, of output or the units of service per fulltime employee. This is also important for the citizens of San Francisco to understand how the 12 billion annual budget is being spent. So, you know, are we getting more units of output . Or it costing more to develop or produce each unit of output . Thats a really important part of open government, and its not being addressed. There are also nine specific Service Areas identified in section f101a, where the c. F. A. Is required to collect data and conduct comparisons. I think if you look lieu thlookthrough the list of nine areas and the reports that have been issued this year, youll find there are major deficiencies. In conclusion, i think it is very important, as one of the agenda items is to review the annual report, that there is a more complete disclosure in the annual report as to what was done and what was not done. When i looked at the annual report, its really a statement of what you did versus what you should have done. Thank you. Chairman next Public Comment. I also have a handout. And copies of a longer excerpt. C. F. A i can go ahead while youre reading that to save time. My name is kermit cubits, and im a resident of the shermot fords neighbourhood. My comments are about the Emergency Response funding bond programme. The Citizens Bond Oversight Committee must ask for Additional Information on the bond spending, planning, and prioritization. Rather than spending additional funds on Office Buildings for lower priority services, like traffic, forensics, or medical scanner offices, the city of San Francisco must focus on earthquake preparation, specifically the auxiliary water supply system and the emergency firefighting water system. You may be aware, or you may not be aware, that the San Francisco civil grand jury, manned by citizens like this gentleman here, issued a 114page report on july 17th entitled act now before it is too late a ag aggressively handle our water system. This raises several questions for me. First, do the city, government, mayor and board of supervisors and management agree with the analysis in the grand jury july 17th report . I believe the response is due in 90 days. Second, how does e. S. E. R. Work described in the 2010and 2014 bond reports fill weaknesses in firefighting, i. E. , coverage of the city by adequate Water Supplies in the event of a nearby earthquake . Third, as funds have been allocated for some projects, should lower Priority Office projects be delayed to accelerate firefighting Water Supplies and equipment . Fourth, can San Francisco take interim measures, such as portable water systems, to fill gaps in water firefighting systems, and should e. S. E. R. Funding or other funding be prioritized to provide such interim measures. And fifth, can reports on e. S. E. R. Planning projects and prioritization provide mapping data to show coverage, or lack of coverage, of San Francisco neighborhoods rather than merely tabulation of budgets and expenditures . It is the result that is an adequate firefighting water supply, not just the list of projects that needs to be monitored for progress. And if you can switch to the computer just to show, this is a table from the grand jury report that shows which areas of the city have high reliability, and which have low reliability. And as you can see, the sunset has low reliability, and bay view Hunters Point has low reliability. And only the San Francisco bay has adequate reliability. Chairman state your name again . Kermit. Chairman any Public Comment . I have copies. Seeing no Public Comment, can you call number three . Item number three, election of chair and vice chair. Chairwoman so we did do this last month or last meeting, if it feels like we just elected. We have to do it at the beginning of every fiscal year. This is our first meeting in the first fiscal year. Are there any other nominations for chair and vice chair . Is that how that works . Thank you, ken rue, deputy City Attorney through the chair. Thats the process. I think what weve done in the past, we start with the election of the chair. We have a discussion out out of the discussion, we have a motion. Before we vote on the motion, however, we need to go to Public Comment, of course. And then we take the vote. If that fails, we repeat the process until someone becomes chair. Once we have a chair elected, we simply repeat the process for the vice chair. I would hik like to nominate kristin chu to be chair of this committee. Second. Chairman any Public Comments .

Moving on to item number five, present takes regarding the 2008 San Francisco General Hospital bond, and possible action by the committee in response to such presentation. Good morning, madam chair, and members of the seago committee, my name is joe chin, public works public manager for the Public Health and safety program. My last presentation was back in january of 2019. So before we i move into the presentation this morning, i just want to kind of spend a moment to acknowledge the rest of my public works Public Management team that is here today, as well as members of the representatives that are here as well as part of the bond program and to help answer any questions on that. That ill be answer that morning. I see members of the department of Public Health, homeless and Supportive Housing, as well as the Fire Department. Theyre all here. I wouldnt go through any individual names, but we do have representatives from the three Client Departments. So now moving to slide number two, this is for those members that were here back in january, or maybe have seen the report the last report that was published by the public works. So this bond program, i believe, was back in may. So ill quickly go through the bond program for those that are not familiar with the Public Health and is safety bond program. This is a slide that maps out the bond authorization for the entire Public Health and safety program. It provides the total amount for this bond, 250 million, and provides funding for three Client Departments. The lions share of this bond is for Public Health, at 272 million, and 58 million allocated to the Fire Department, and then 20 million for the department of homelessness and Supportive Housing. To just quickly walk through the graph, the redcolored bars, as you can tell by the slide, maps out the allocation by bond component, and also the orange is the allocation by bond sale, and then the yellow is the the orange is the first bond sale, and the yellow is the second bond sale. For this bond program, weve completed two bond sales two date. The first one was 176 million, and then the second bond sale was 52. 5 million. And then moving on to slide three, i think in general, from public works perspective, the projects have been doing well from all components. The bond Program Covers six bond components, and weve been making great advances from starting with a programming phase to design and moving to construction. So let me just focus quickly on the first section, which is highlights and accomplishments. There will be more deeper dive into each bond component as we move through the slide deck. For now, let me give you a highlevel view of where we are currently. So one of the largest bond components is the zuckerburg bond component, and of the 19, 16 are active. Roughly one project has been completed, and there are four projects that are in construction,and two in plan approval, and one in design and five other projects not currently in the programming phase. In the Community Health centre, were tramaticing four projects. One project has been completed, and two others currently in planned review. The ambulance project is a great success, where weve starkly issued the notice to proceed to the contractor in the later part of 2018, and as of july, we already started steel erection for the facility. So it is way into construction. And one of the first projects that weve now completed for the homelessness and Supportive Housing component way 440 church streerntled whicstreet, which we essentially completed. We are just tracking the projects to quickly move these projects from design to construction as soon as possible. This is obviously related to risks that the adverse bidding environment that is faced by all projects. This bond program, as well as other bond programs managed by public works or other city departments. Just to quickly talk about Southeast Health center and cash emission, those two projects are an upcoming milestone, really to finish our design. Were currently in the permitting phase, and well hopefully look to starting construction by the early part of 2020. In Section Three of this slide, bond sales and appropriations, i mentioned there are two bond sales to date for this program. The first bond sale was completed in march 2017. The second bond sale was completed in june of 2018. At this point were currently targeting our third and final bond sale for early part of 2020. And in section four, just risk issues, concerns on budget scope or schedule, the risk and issues continues to be the same since we started this bond program. Once again, it is not knowing what the bidding environment is. Weve looked at lot of different projects across the program, as others. It is just a very challenging bidding environment. We however, we do see some lightening up of some contracts being let out, so that could be a good sign, you know, that thats forthcoming. Okay. Moving on to slide four, as i mentioned, the next few slides is a height highlight of each of the sex components under this bond program. There are more details and photos of each project that is part of the bond component, that is part of the part that was issued as part of the slide deck. If there are any questions on that, i can talk about that at the end of this presentation under the q and a. But moving to zuckerburg General Hospital, the budget remains the same, 22 million, and current expenditures is about 46 million, which accounts for about 42 of the first bond sale amount. And then in terms of accomplishments, i. T. Infrastructure, and there are two projects currently going through oshpod plan review. Oshpod is the authority and jurisdiction for hospitals in general. All of the projects that were currently delivering, under oshpod, not the local jurisdiction it is a state agent see tha agency thats jurisdiction over the cheap care facilities. The family Health Center is one of the latest projects we completed programming, and we just wrapped up or schematic design. And this century beginning is tt attempt of or planning for seismic basically retrofitting the existing hospital after the new hospital is completed. So weve are about 95 complete under phase one, and that accounts for about 30 locations out of 20206locations, and were looking a lot. How could we maximize services while we do this very important work. 6h, the rehabilitation department, seismic upgrade, those are were looking to complete construction by the end of the year and the early part of 2020. And kind of another key activity that were looking at is what i call a request for a proposal for a c. G. Contract, and this centur is the message weve worked on with the Client Department, as the most efficient way to promote one project under the building five program in this bond component. Just moving on to the Southeast Health center component, this component comprises of phase one and phase two. Phase one was completed in 2017, which included renovation in the existing facility, renovating the Dental Clinic as well as the lobby area. And now the team is focused on phase two, which is building a 22,000 Health Center adjacent. And currently were tracking three documents, and we received a city Design Review of phase three, back in july, which then allows the project to segue into the next phase, which is to start the construction bidding. So were tracking for that to happen next month. So thats our current schedule. Which will allow croud crowks construction to starter in the early part of 2020. Moving to to the Health Center component, there are two locations that were focused on under this component. The maxine Health Center located in district five, and cash emissions Health Center located district eight. Were embarking on an upgrade to improve seismic performance, as well as to perform major interior renovation for both facilities. Maxine hall is ahead of cash emission, and we awarded a contract. We issued m. P. P. In july. The construction in the facility itself will start tending the relocation of the clinic to a temporary facility that is currently being set up by the offsight location, less than a mile away. At the l. Hill hutch community center. Thats currently what were tracking for maxine. The moveout date for maxine hall is currently in october, into the temporary facility. And the clinic will remain there for the whole duration of the construction face. And cash emissions, just wicly oquickly on that, we finishing up design, and we had to push out the bidding date, do some mec commechanical improvements and air conditioning, that has been added to this project. Were looking at starting bidding at the end of the year, and starting construction by the early part of 2020. And then moving to ambulance facility component, this is one project one big project. It is constructing a new facility for the e. M. S. Section of the Fire Department. An n. P. P. Was issued in october 22 of 2015, and steel erection started in july. Im happy to report in the early part of august, just a few weeks ago, weve completed the steel erection, and weve had a very nice and formal steel topping off ceremony with the Fire Department and the contractor. So this project is well under way. At this point, were on target to complete the project by winter of 2020. There are some photos at the become of the slide, highlighting some of the steel that has been completed now, as of today. Moving to the neighborhood fire station component, under this component, were tracking two scopes of work. The main one is the host tower removal project. There has been an assessment done that the host tower that currently at six remaining fire stations will create a seismic vulnerability in the event of a majority event, and so the project is to remove that scope tower. And the other is replacing the existing emergency generator at three fire l
