Grant Agreement
between the museum and the
Successor Agency

Grant Agreement

Million Dollars
to assist with the partial funding for the museum. With that, we have representatives here. Thank you. Good afternoon. I am develop services manager, i am here before you today to present a
Grant Funding
request. With me, are representatives from both the
Mexican Museum
and 706
Mission Street
company. The developer for the 706 mission project. Andrew kluger who is the chair of the board of directors of the
Mexican Museum
and market for our from 706
Mission Street
, he is a project manager. I will provide a brief overview of the project, and the current grant disbursement request and then turn it over for discussion. As you know there we go, the project is located in in
Yerba Buena Center
. Which the agency helped assemble and develop over the years into a the cultural district that you know today. The last remaining undeveloped parcel is the
Mexican Museum
site. That is shown here on
Central Block
one. Here is an an aerial view. And reggie 706
Mission Street
site, which combines it with a building that was purchased by millennium partners. There is a long trajectory to the history of this project. In 2013, ocii entered into a purchase and
Sale Agreement
with millennium for a mixed use project on that combined site. The project started construction in 2016. In overview, the develop a program for this project includes 190 units of condominiums, and a 480foot tower. The build out of the korn shell of about a 48,000 squarefoot museum space and the four floors. The developer is responsible for building that shell and transferring it to the city. Also, part of the project is
Historical Preservation
of the aaronson building on the ownership and operation of the garage. You see renderings of the project. As i mentioned, this is the last project and fulfillment of the yerba buena cultural district. We contributed the land and the garage. The developer provide
Significant Community
benefits, including the construction of the shell of this museum space. When it is completed, it will be deeded over to the city and the city will lease it to the museum. The
Mexican Museum
will be responsible for the design, and construction of tenant improvements. Ocii has approximately 7. 1 million available to fund those. The balance will be the responsibility of the museum there is a recent photo showing construction of the tower. In terms of status today. The construction completion is anticipated in 2020 with initial delivery of the residential condominium units in approximately april or may of this year, and delivery of the museum space to the city, in the summer of 2020. In terms of the public art. When the project was approved it was approved by the citys
Planning Department
and it had to meet the requirements under the planning code including article four which was the provision of either onsite public art, or a contribution. The developer and the museum jointly proposed that the public art fee be applied to a facade screen. Which was a unique public artwork worth roughly 3 million. Heres a rendering of the facade screen. It basically wraps the fourstory condominium. That brings us to the grant request today. The former agency of the museum entered into a
Grant Agreement
, in 2,010 to help fund museums portions of its cost for tenants portions of this mixed use project within the 706
Mission Street
project. The total
Grant Agreement
arouns 10. 5 million, 2. 78 has been disbursed for predevelopment costs to date, approximately 7. 8 [of that the current request would utilize at 1 million to fund the museums portion of the facade screen. The
Grant Agreement
itself has a ten year term and expires in december of 2020. The joint request that is before you today would be to access funds for the museums portion of the facade screen. In light of the fact that the developer has taken on the obligation for the design fabrication and construction of the facade screen, the proposed grant disbursement agreement would disperse 1 million grant funds directly to the developer, on behalf of the museum pursuant to the budget contained in the disbursement agreement. The final budget for the total cost of the facade screen approximately 3. 6 million. The developer would be contributing their public art fee, plus some cost allowance savings for approximately 2. 6 million and the museum would contribute the remaining amount of 1 million due to the grant disbursement agreement. The
Grant Agreement
itself includes provisions related to compliance with the policies and programs, including the
Small Business
enterprise program. Which both the museum and the developer are complying with. They have been working closely with our contact
Compliance Team
to date. The approval of the fourth grant disbursement agreement would be in compliance of the 2,010
Grant Agreement
. The proposed use of funds is consistent with the grant, and the fourth disbursement agreement would include or does include a budget and the roles and responsibilities of each party and the mechanisms for disbursement and compliance. If the
Commission Approves
this request the parties will move forward to complete the facade screen and disburse the
Million Dollars
in funds by the summer, june 2020. This concludes the presentation. Thanks for your time and we are available to answer any questions. Thank you. Thank you. Madam secretary do we have any cards . Yes, we have oscar james. Good afternoon commissioners, director. My name is oscar james, im a native resident of
Hunters Point
,
San Francisco
california. When this proposal was first brought to the redeveloping agency, in 2010, it seems like it was longer than that. Ramon was one of the commissioners that was sitting up there at that particular time. We had other commissioners sitting up there, at the same time. There was a lot of people that did not want this to come to fruition. I stated then, and i state it now this city should allow any any race, religion,
Arts Commission
if they desire to have
Arts Commission
and the city and county of
San Francisco
. It was a big fight about some of the commissioners did not want it. It did pass. This city,
San Francisco
is built on the mexicanamericans, in the city and county of
San Francisco
. This country as a whole, before the mexican war, before the alamo, all of this was mexican territory. They have a right to have a museum here, in
San Francisco
. The only thing i ask for them to do is give some of the history of
San Francisco
what it means to the whole united states. What they have done here in
San Francisco
. All of those people trying to come back to california, the mexicanamericans, they deserve to have the right to be here this is their country first. I dont care what kind of war takes place, where you move people out, what have you. This is their land. You have a lot of mexicanamericans who built mission dolores. The country did not start in 1776, it was way before 1776, and they were here. I would like for them to give the history of the bay area, the fights that they have done in
San Francisco
, how they made
San Francisco
,
San Francisco
. I am just glad that this is happening. To me it is taking too long. I give credit to the mexicanamerican people. God bless you all. Thank you. No more speaker cards. Thank you. Public comment is closed. I turned to my we have any questions for staff . Have no questions, just the comments that i am thankful for the work that you have done, and the plans that you have going forward. I totally agree with mr. Oscar james, and i am thankful for hilda scott. Thank you for your report. I approve. This is a motion . Yes, i would like to move that we authorize a fourth grant disbursement agreement with the
Mexican Museum
. Have a question, is there a second . The chair booster is a second. I have a question, i didnt see in the packet about the
Small Business
participation. I think the numbers are impressive. I would like to know who the professional
Services Providers
are . I am the contract contract supervisor with ocii. The project started off with a
Consultant Team
of about 12 consulting firms with a participation of 66. 8 . There was a joint venture with a d architecture. I do want to note, however, because of the duration of time, and changes in some of the firms has now been merged with harkins and wales. The joint venture is no longer in effect. We have been, in recent conversations with the
Mexican Museum
their attorney, in terms of looking at the replacement. What has been brought forth to us as a hispanic firm, as a replacement for the architect. We expect that the participation will remain above 50 . Thank you. On construction i guess i am reading 22. 9, is that accurate . That is correct. This is the construction of the tower itself, not the
Mexican Museum
. The museum itself will be putting forth bids when the leaseholds arent contemplated. Okay. You have a comment as to why it is 22. 9 . It seems kind of low is it just because of the nature of the work . Unfortunately it has to do a lot with the tower constructions that we have talked about in recent times. Just the magnitude of work, and the different type of work with respect to type one constructi construction. The participation of
Small Business
es, while there are quite a number of
Small Business
es, their level of participation is not a 50 . Approximately 30
Small Business
es that are participating. The largest package that i see, in terms of dollar amounts is about 7. 5 million. I would like to have a report, not at this time, typically the kind we receive f with our packages, and the details. Thank you. The item has been moved by commissioner scott and seconded by chair bustos. [role call] the item has been approved. Thank you. Please call the next item. The next order of business is agenda item five c. Workshop on the amendment to the recognized obligation payment schedule for january 1, 2020 to june 30, 2020 including the administrative budget for the
Successor Agency
and supporting documentation. Madam director . Thank you. The item before you is an amendment to the 1920. Back in january we had held a workshop, for the commission, as well as a workshop on approval for submittal to the department of finance, by february 1. We did submit, but we got pushed back in terms of specific requests related to our pledge agreements. When we do estimates, we had allowed through the recognition of the payment schedule for the controller to transfer actual receipts. The response back to us in approving, they gave us feedback that that is not allowed if we had to approve drop it does not allow us to construct the controller to disburse to the agency over what was approved. What we are proposing to do today, is have the commission hear the item, which is subject to oversight approval and ask that we make to
Public Finance
based on information, from the controller, under the certificate of assessed valuation that shows an increase in property tax revenues generated in the three project areas beyond what was in the original approved draft. Today we will be working through the specific line items and changes we are proposing with regards to the amendment. We are typically allowed to do this in september for submittal in october. Good afternoon. I am the
Financial Reporting
management analysis analysi analysis analyst for ocii. Ab 26 requires the agency to create the roth, sb107 requires a time period to amend for the 12 month period. No later than october 1. Resubmitted to the department of finance on february 1. We received approval on may 17. On the ninth we presented the workshop to the
Oversight Board
. We are here before you present in the workshop on the amendments for the
Oversight Board
will be taking action on the 23rd and submitting the amendment to the department of finance by the end of the month. This is just a reminder of the funding. We have the proceeds, reserve balances, other
Development Payments
on grants and we have the redevelopment property tax trust fund, add and non admin. You can see the total requested increase is 53. 24 million this is non admin. Again, when we submitted this earlier this year, we had used estimates. Then we receive the finalize property tax role from the assessors in august of 2019. We are amending to updated figures. We receive had just used straightline projections for our estimates. We had a number of projects come online. Weve also built a model for more robust property tax increment calculations and projections moving forward. Again, the total increase is 53. 24 million which brings the total to 461. 45 million and this will be used for the construction of infrastructure and approved housing areas. This table shows the requested increase by our uses. We have 16. 33 in our affordable housing, plus this will be used to
Fund Projects
and our pipeline for future years. We also have the remainder of the increase that will be used to reimburse developers for infrastructure already constructed in the art project areas. Again, this is used to pay for ocii funded affordable housing. Here we are just showing this will be used to read [inaudible] we wanted to show the net impact to our different project areas. Here we have a table showing the impact in mission bay. You can see the 34. 38 is driving the requested increase, because of some
Commission Meeting<\/a> will be held on tuesday, october 1, 2019 at 1 00 pm city hall, room 416 . Announcement of prohibition of sound producing

Major Projects<\/a> like the chase center and the uber
Office Building<\/a> that will be coming online. Here we are showing the net impact, this is reflecting where we sent project completions and the infrastructure pledge line 102 will be transferred to support the terminal. Here we have the increase to the shipyard,
Hunters Point<\/a> shipya shipyard, it is a . 9 million increase, primarily for flex and adjustment for inflations. Off of the gross tax incremental amount, 20 of the top goes for taxing entities, 20 goes to ocii housing, and the remainder this group we are requesting in our amendment will not adversely impact the tax amenities because the shares are being constant. There is no
Budget Amendment<\/a> required because it is only an increase in the revenues, and not the expenditures. Budget amendments are only required for changes and expenditures. These funds will fall to fund balance and be programmed for our out years. This is just the next steps. The
Oversight Board<\/a> will take action on the item, we will submit our amendment on september 30, that concludes the presentation. Thank you. Any speaker cards . We have one speaker card, oscar james. Mr. James. He is waving hello, and goodbye, and waving his right so no more speaker cards. This is a workshop . There is no action. This is an opportunity for questions, or comments, reflections. [laughter] commissioners . Any questions . Thank you for your report. The only question i have, just because it is a nagging question. This is essentially money in . Yes. An increase in our revenues. Not estimated to come in actual money that has been scheduled or has been collected . Yes. We have collections from august, and it is an estimate for january. It is a more robust as that we had initially submitted. I think you address this, its just a curiosity, our original projections were more on the conservative side, because, you know there is lot of things that can happen during the year. S, it was more on the preservative side conservative side. We did this in the fall of 2018. We would include, in our rough notes, these are estimates, but anything over would be distributed to us, but because of the decision to keep it to what is actually requested, we revisited our assumptions about our estimates. Okay. Yeah, because obviously if we can capture as much as possible, its better to have it on the front and. End. I think it is very impressive actually. When you look at this picture, every area has increased. I dont have any other questio questions. It is a no action item. Thank you. Please call the next item. The next order of business item no. 6,
Public Comment<\/a> on nonagenda items. Members of the public may address the commission on matters that are within the
Commission Jurisdiction<\/a> and not on todays calendar. Each speaker shall have up to three minutes to make pertinent
Public Comments<\/a> unless the
Commission Adopts<\/a> a shorter period. It is strongly recommended that members of the public who wish to address the commission fill out a speaker card and submit the completed card to the commission secretary. I have one speaker card. Oscar james. Oscar james again. I dont want to take up too much of your time. What i wanted to speak on. We are having a meeting, thursday night, pertaining to the seawall that is going around the city. The city is going to do their part, both the navy has not committed to putting a seawall up in the shipyard. I want to bring that to you guys attention, that we need a seawall in hunters. Shipyard. We would like for you guys to support it. The other thing i do, and i have done for years, things that really matter to me about
Hunters Point<\/a>, or any area, as far as that goes, i always get a package. Besides getting a package, i also go downstairs and i get a dvd. They stopped making dvds, and oscar james is not up to recording. I would like for you guys to have them downstairs, make dvds for the public, because i keep my record read when i come up here to speak, or someone comes up here to speak, i can go back to that dvd and see what was g gay, or what was nay. It is important to me to see what has been happening in these meetings but ive been coming to these meetings i came and there was no minorities in this commission. We flipped over desks, and everything else, to get you guys here in our communities. I am proud of what the outcome has came to be. I need to have a record, just like if someone would say today, what happened in the
Hunters Point<\/a> shipyard, when he first closed, i was on the task force on what we wanted the city to come in and do it, the city didnt want to do anything in the
Hunters Point<\/a> shipyard. Mr. Soul, the director at that particular time, the only thing he wanted to do was bring a coal train into
Hunters Point<\/a> shipyard. We told them in a kind
Hunters Point<\/a> way. Hunters point came up then with different programs, we wanted to go into
Hunters Point<\/a> shipyar shipyards. The city decided they would sell that, the
Officers Club<\/a> and the
Hotel Restaurant<\/a> for
Young Community<\/a> developers, fenced off out at partial e. I can go back to those tapes and say what was said back then. It is important to me to have a record of ocii, or the redeveloping agency and what you say, what you dont say. When i get out into the community, and the good lord give me another 70 years to be here, i can tell what happened here at this commission and hope some young people start coming to these meetings so they can take it further. What you are doing is important, and it is good. If we dont have a record of in communities of what is happeni happening, you know, no sense coming here. It is fruitless. I would ask, i would beg, even though they are doing a good job downstairs i would like to get a dvd from them. They told me how to go about on the thing, and tape it. Like i say come on out into. My grandkids is into that, so are my young kids, but i am not. Thank you very much. No more speaker cards madam vice chair. Thank you for the comment. Please call the next item. The next order of business is item seven, report of the chair. I dont think the chair has a report. The next order of business is item eight, report of the executive director madam director . None at this time. I do want to acknowledge, since our last meeting, the chase center open and it was a huge success. Theyve had a few concerts be mitigated. I want to thank everyone for their work on item nine, commissioner questions are there i have a followup question, im glad you brought up the there was two concerts saw that it was coming news reports only thing i noticed instead item ten, no closed session items. The i dont think i need a motion 5 00 p. M. And the meetins sustainability mission, even ins though the bikes are very
Minimal Energy<\/a> use. It
Still Matters<\/a> where the energy comes from and also part of the mission in sustainability is how we run everything, run our business. So having the lights come on with clean energy is important to us as well. We heard about cleanpowersf and learned they had commercial rates and signed up for that. It was super easy to sign up. Our bookkeeper signed up online, it was like 15 minutes. Nothing has changed, except now we have cleaner energy. Its an easy way to align your environmental proclivities and goals around
Climate Change<\/a> and its so easy that its hard to not want to do it, and it doesnt really add anything to
San Francisco<\/a> is surrounded on three sides by water, the fire boat station is intergal to maritime rescue and preparedness, not only for
San Francisco<\/a>, but for all of the bay area. [sirens] fire station 35 was built in 1915. So it is over 100 years old. And helped it, were going to build fire boat station 35. So the finished
Capital Planning<\/a> committee, i think about three years ago, issued a guidance that all city facilities must exist on
Sea Level Rise<\/a>. The station 35,
Construction Cost<\/a> is approximately 30 million. And the schedule was complicated because of what you call a float. It is being fabricated in china, and will be brought to treasure island, where the building site efficient will be constructed on top of it, and then brought to pier 22 and a half for installation. Were looking at late 2020 for final completion of the fire boat float. The historic firehouse will remain on the embarcadero, and we will still respond out of the historic firehouse with our fire engine, and respond to medical calls and other incidences in the district. This totally has to incorporate between three to six feet of
Sea Level Rise<\/a> over the next 100 years. Thats what the citys guidance is requiring. It is built on the float, that can move up and down as the water level rises, and sits on four fixed guide piles. So if the seas go up, it can move up and down with that. It does have a full range of travel, from low tide to high tide of about 16 feet. So that allows for current tidal movements and sea lisle rises in the coming decades. The fire boat station float will also incorporate a ramp for ambulance deployment and access. The access ramp is rigidly connected to the land side, with more of a pivot or hinge connection, and then it is sliding over the top of the float. In that way the ramp can flex up and down like a hinge, and also allow for a slight few inches of lateral motion of the float. Both the access ramps, which there is two, and the utilitys only flexible connection connecting from the float to the back of the building. So electrical power, water, sewage, it all has flexible connection to the boat. High boat station number 35 will provide mooring for three fire boats and one rescue boat. Currently were staffed with
Seven Members<\/a> per day, but the
Fire Department<\/a> would like to establish a new dedicated marine unit that would be able to respond to multiple incidences. Looking into the future, we have not only at t park, where we have a lot of kayakers, but we have a lot of developments in the southeast side, including the stadium, and we want to have the ability to respond to any marine or maritime incident along these new developments. There are very few designs for people sleeping on the water. Were looking at cruiseships, which are larger structures, several times the size of harbor station 35, but theyre the only good reference point. We look to the cruiseship industry who has kind of an index for how much acceleration they were accommodate. It is very unique. I dont know that any other fire station built on the water is in the united states. The fire boat is a regionalesset tharegional assete used for water rescue, but we also do environmental cleanup. We have special rigging that we carry that will contain oil spills until an environmental unit can come out. This is a job for us, but it is also a way of life and a lifestyle. Were proud to serve our community. And were willing to help people in any way we can. Hi, im with building
San Francisco<\/a>. And we have a special program of stay safe today where were going to talk about what you can do to your home after an earthquake to make it waterproof and to be more comfortable. Were here at spur in
San Francisco<\/a>, this wonderful exhibit of safe enough to stay. And this is an example of what your home might be like after an earthquake. And we have today with us ben latimer from tvan. Thank you for joining us. Thank you. Well talk about things you can do you dont have to be a professional contractor to make your home more livable after an earthquake. I want to talk about things a homeowner can do. We have comfort and we have things like a little bit of maybe safety if your front door is ajar and waterproofing if you have a leak in your roof, or if you have broken glass on the window. So unr, one of the most important fib use is keeping outside out and inside in. Lets look at windows. Lets assume this window is broken in the earthquake. We have wind and rain blowing in. One of the most important things you need to do as a homeowner is secure the plastic properly. If you just take staples or nails and put them into the plastic, were going to get a strong wind and rip it right off. What im going to have somebody do is theyre going to have this is an old piece of shingle. You might have everybody has a piece of wood in their basement. It doesnt have to be fancy. They take out this rusty screw begun, and hopefully you have one of these. There is one at the neighborhood support center. At the neighborhood support center. Youre going to wrap this plastic around this board, take your screw. And then screw that in. You need a permit for this . You do need a permit for this. And you can contact the former head building inspector to get that permit. Thats it. Now when the wind blows, its tight and its not going to pull through, having a single point of contact. Great. What about this door . Take a look at this door. What can you do . Lets say it doesnt shut tight. What can you do . For the sake of argument, were on the inside. I cant lock my door at night. I have a very similar, very similar idea. Im going to take my 2 by 4. I can put it across the jamb in the door. One. Two. Maybe i want another one up here, maybe another one down there. But i can go to sleep. And that quickly, i can get it off in the morning. Terrific. What about the roof up here . We see people throw blue tarps over their roof after an earthquake. That seems reasonable. I think the blue tarp is reasonable. The things that people want to know that they need to know is if you have multiple tarps, how you overlap. Starting from the bottom and moving up so that youre overlapping this way. So, rain running down doesnt slide under your tarp. Right. And the same technique we did over here, as silly as it may sound, wrapping the end of that blue tarp with your board and then securing that if you can underneath, if you have to on top is fine. But making sure that you dont have an area where the wind is going to get under and bill owe that tarp. The wind can rip it right off. And then youre back up there again. Lets go inside and check out what we can do inside. Old fun. Here we go. So, ben, i see you have nails, universal tool right here. Mans best friend. Duct tape. Let me show you a couple things we can use this for after an earthquake. This window right here, because its off kilter, we have open seams all along. I have a lot of air coming through. I want to stay comfortable at night. I want to keep that air out. Its as simple as that, all the way around. Excellent. Now i dont have any air coming in. Lets say this one is one that would annoy me. Everything is a little off. My doors wont stay closed. I take a piece of my favorite duct tape here, close it up. And at least it will stay out of my way when im trying to live throughout my day. If were not talking about pressurized water, were talking about just the drain, sometimes theyre going to get a crack here. Right, sure. And youre going to get a leak. Duct tape around that is going to help us get through until we can get a plumber out and get that fixed as well. Lets say we only have electricity in one room, so were running extension cords across the house. If im going to run an extension cord from one room to the other, i dont want kids tripping on it. I dont want to trippon it. I take my trusty duct tape, tape it to the floor, and i dont have to worry about it getting kicked. Great, great. Look at this. Lets look at the duct tape here because we see a big yes. In the event of an earthquake, i dont think were going to have too many too much debris thats safe to put into a plastic bag, even as strong as it might be. These are called vice bags. This is what they use to put rice and things when they ship it. This is something where i take my glass, i can take broken pieces of wood, i can take anything sharp and fill it. And its not going to puncture and come out. Its not going to fall all over the floor. Ive not going to have it sticking out, maybe scratch myself, cut myself or anything like that. These are a great thing to have. You have a little goto box for emergencies. Thats great. Thanks very much for joining us, ben. Its really been interesting. And i want to thank you all for joining us here at the spur urban center. And well see you again
San Francisco<\/a>, 911, whats the emergency . San francisco 911, police, fire and medical. The tenderloin. Suspect with a six inch knife. He was trying to get into his car and was hit by a car. San francisco 911 whats the exact location of your emergency . Welcome to the
San Francisco<\/a> department of emergency management. My name is shannon bond and im the lead instructor for our dispatch add academy. I want to tell you about what we do here. This is
San Francisco<\/a> 911. Do you need police, fire or medical . San francisco police, dispatcher 82, how can i help you . Youre helping people in their what may be their most vulnerable moment ever in life. So be able to provide them immediate help right then and there, its really rewarding. Our agency is a very combined agency. We answer emergency and nonemergency calls and we also do dispatching for fire, for medical and we also do dispatching for police. We staff multiple call taking positions. As well as positions for police and fire dispatch. We have a priority 221. I wanted to become a dispatcher so i could help people. I really like people. I enjoy talking to people. This is a way that i thought that i could be involved with people every day. As a 911 dispatcher i am the first first responder. Even though i never go on seen scene im the first one answering the phone call to calm the victim down and give them instruction. The information allows us to coordinate a response. Police officers, firefighters, ambulances or any other agency. It is a great feeling when everyone gets to go home safely at the end of the day knowing that youve also saved a citizens life. Our department operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. This is shift work. That means we work nights, weekends and holidays and can involve over time and sometimes thats mandatory. This is a high stress career so its important to have a good balance between work and life. We have
Resources Available<\/a> like wellness and peer support groups. Our dispatchers of the month are recognized for their outstanding performance and unique and ever changing circumstances. I received an accommodation and then i received dispatcher of the month, which was really nice because i was just released from the phones. So for them to, you know, recognize me for that i appreciated it. I was surprised to even get it. At the end of the day i was just doing my job. A typical dispatch shift includes call taking and dispatching. It takes a large dedicated group of fifrst responders to make ths department run and in turn keep the city safe. When you work here you dont work alone, you work as part of a team. You may start off as initial phone call or contact but everyone around you participating in the whole process. I was born and raised in
San Francisco<\/a> so its really rewarding to me to be able to help the community and know that i have a part in you know, even if its behind the scenes kind of helping the city flow and helping people out that live here. The
Training Program<\/a> begins with our sevenweek academy followed by on the job training. This means youre actually taking calls or dispatching responders. You can walk in with a high school diploma, you dont need to have a college degree. We will train you and we will teach you how to do this job. We just need you to come with an open mind that we can train you and make you a good dispatcher. If its too dangerous to see and you think that you can get away and call us from somewhere safe. Good. Thats right. From the start of the academy to being released as a solo dispatcher can take nine months to a year. Training is a little over a year and may change in time. The training is intense. Very intense. Whats the number one thing that kills people in this country . So were going to assume that its a heart attack, right . Dont forget that. As a new hire we require you to be flexible. You will be required to work all shifts that include midnights, some call graveyard, days and swings. You have to be willing to work at different times, work during the holidays, you have to work during the weekends, midnight, 6 00 in the morning, 3 00 in the afternoon. Thats like the toughest part of this job. We need every person thats in here and when it comes down to it, we can come together and we make a really great team and do our best to keep the city flowing and safe. This is a big job and an honorable career. We appreciate your interest in joining our team. We hope you decide to join us here as the first
First Responders<\/a> to the city and county of
San Francisco<\/a>. For more information on the job and how to apply follow the links below. Look at that beautiful jellyfish. The way to speak to students and motivate them to take action, to save the planet, they do, they care and my job is to speak to them in a way that they can understand that touches their heart and makes them feel powerful with simple actions to take every day. I was born and raised in the desert of palm springs, california. My dad was the rabbi in the community there. What i got from watching my father on stage talking to the community was learning how to be in the public. And learning how to do public speaking and i remember the first time i got up to give my first school assembly, i felt my dad over my shoulder saying pause for drama, deliver your words. When i was a kid, i wanted to be a teacher. And then when i got into high school, i decided i wanted to get into advertising and do graphic art and taglines and stuff like that. By the time i was in college, i decided i wanted to be a decorator. But as i did more work, i realized working my way up meant a lot of physical labor. I only had so much energy to work with for the rest of my life and i could use that energy towards making a lot of money, helping someone else make a lot of money or doing something meaningful. I found the nonprofit working to save the rainforest was looking for volunteers. I went, volunteered and my life changed. Suddenly everything i was doing had meaning. Stuffing envelopes had meaning, faxing out requests had meaning. I eventually moved up to
San Francisco<\/a> to work out of the office here, given a lot of assembly through
Los Angeles County<\/a> and then came up here and doing assemblies to kids about rainforest. One ofy jobs was to teach about recycle, teaching students to reduce, reuse, recycle and compost, im teaching them they have the power, and that motivates them. It was satisfying for me to work with for the department of environment to create a message that gets to the heart of the issue. The
San Francisco<\/a> department of environment is the only agency that has a full time educational team, we go into the schools to help teach children how to protect nature and the environment. We realized we needed animal mascot to spark excitement with the students. The city during the gold rush days, the phoenix became part of the city feel and i love the symbolism of the phoenix, about transformation and the message that the theme of the phoenix provides, we all have the power to transform our world for the better. We have to provide teachers with curriculum online, our curriculum is in two different languages and whether its lesson plans or student fact sheets, teachers can use them and weve had great feedback. We have helped public and private schools in
San Francisco<\/a> increase their waste use and students are working hard to sort waste at the end of the lunch and understand the power of reusing, reducing, recycling and composting. Great job. Ive been with the department for 15 years and an environmental educator for more than 23 years and im grateful for the work that i get to do, especially on behalf of the city and county of
San Francisco<\/a>. I try to use my voice as intentionally as possible to suppo support, i think of my grandmother who had a positive attitude and looked at things positively. Try to do that as well in my work and with my words to be an uplifting force for myself and others. Think of entering the job force as a treasure hunt. You can only go to your next clue and more will be revealed. Follow your instincts, listen to your gut, follow your heart, do what makes you happy and pragmatic and see where it takes you and get to the next place. Trust if you want to do good in this world, thatttttttttttttttt so good morning and welcome. Im jack gardner and president of the john stewart company. On behalf of our related partners in california,
San Francisco<\/a> housing corporation, and ridgepoint nonprofit housing corporation, its my great pleasure to welcome you to the grand reopening of
Hunters Point<\/a> west and westbrook. Give it up. [ applause ]. Hunters point eastwest in westbrook are two of the citys rental assistance demonstration projects. The
