Yeah, thank you for hearing this item, supervisors, and really, i can just speak to introduce joyce. I have the director for d. P. H. Here, as well as the contract director for the Controllers Office, and joyce can give us an update on where things stand for the Controllers Offices on d. P. H. , but what we have before you is separate and distinct from the r. F. P. But that being said, the longer term plan for these services is related to the r. F. P. That joyce will give an introduction to. Chair fewer okay. Joyce . Good morning, im joyce hamasuki for the Controllers Office . The deadline for r. P. F. Proposals was september 29 . We completed the evaluation process and issued on november 6 a notice of intent to award a contract to the highest ranked proposer, which was color genomics. The Controllers Office has concluded the r. F. P. Process. Negotiations with color genomics will be governed by d. P. H. D. P. H. Plans to start Contract Negotiations next week. Im happy to answer any questions you might have regarding the r. F. P. Chair fewer no, im understanding, then, that that Contract Negotiation or that contract will come before the board once thats finalized, is that correct . Yeah. Chair fewer okay. So we heard the b. L. A. Report last week, and so we have no powerpoints on this. Any comments or questions from colleagues . I see none. Can you briefly tell me the amendment is not substantive, is that correct . Im sorry, madam chair, i dont think ive seen a copy of the amendment. Is that something that can be circulated to me . Chair fewer mr. Morel . And chair fewer, i think what youre speaking to is the amendment to the resolution to agree to the b. L. A. Report, is that correct, not the larger contract amendment . Chair fewer so you said today that you had an amendment that you were proposing, is that correct . No, sorry. To clarify, i wanted to clarify that we were here seeking a board approval for the third amendment to the emergency contract that we entered into. My apologies. I apologize. Chair fewer thats fine. Thats fine. Lets open it up inform Public Comment now. Sorry, madam city attorney. Could i please get Public Comment on item number two. Clerk yes, madam chair. Operations is checking to see if there are any callers in the queue. Operations, please let us know if there are any callers in the queue. For those of you already in the queue, please wait until the system indicated you have been unmuted, and for those who have are already done so, press star, three to be entered into the queue. Operations, do we have any callers in the queue . Operator madam chair, we have no callers in the queue. Chair fewer okay. Seeing no Public Comment, Public Comment is now closed. [inaudible]. For the third Public Community sites, we were looking at transportation hubs as the potential popups that would happen at different hubs so that we could get people, essential workers that were having to go through transit. Supervisor walton so we still dont know where the site is. No. Until this amendment moves forward, we kind of put everything on hold, just given that color was waiting on this emergency contract and has been providing services, so wanted to get this contract approved before moving forward. Supervisor walton its kind of cart before the horse because im just wondering, what would make you think we would approve something not knowing where the sites are going to be located . The sites are going to be located based on where the disease has spread, so it will definitely be part of where the city is seeing the most disease spread, and, you know, weve moved south of alemany on this, and well continue to push all of our resources where we continue to see active disease. Supervisor walton and i guess the pandemic does exist for us to be able to forecast where sites should be, im assuming. Yes, and supervisor walton so i dont know why we would not have identified it. So there are definitely transport hubs that we have talked about based on whats happened at ucsf, the bar transport hubs, and some of other b. A. R. T. Transport hubs, and some of the other places where were seeing. Color was been doing a lot of work outside without this contract approval, so absolutely, as soon as this gets approved, and probably right now, we can start working on moving that forward. Supervisor walton go ahead. Chair fewer supervisor walton, excuse me for interrupting. This contract with color will come for our approval once they finish the Contract Negotiation, so i would expect at that time to have a list of the sites and specifically those transport sites, so if you are willing, i think, supervisor walton, until we the actual contract comes back to us for approval, i think you can hear loud and clear from the supervisor that he wants to know where those sites are, and i think that would be beneficial for the entire committee. So supervisor walton, if you wouldnt mind waiting, i think its appropriate once were asked to approve the entire contract for color, that we know exactly where those sites are. Supervisor walton thank you, chair fewer. That works for me. Chair fewer okay. Thank you very much. Okay so lets move this out of committee with a positive recommendation, and could you do a roll call vote, please. Clerk yes, on the motion [roll call] clerk there are three ayes. Chair fewer thank you very much. Can you please call item number three . Clerk yes. Item three, resolution designating Small Business exchange to the outreach periodical of the city and county of San Francisco for the African American community, el reportero to reportero, World Journal s. F. , l. L. C. , bay area reporter, jaspan minute blue media, l and various periodicals to be the outreach periodicals for various communities, for fiscal year 20202021. Chair fewer and this is our contract for outreach materials for the year, is that correct . Yes. And for some reason, its not letting me share. Sorry about the delay. Good morning, supervisors. My name is Florence Quan with the office of Contract Administration. I will be presenting the Term Contracts for the Outreach Services overview and proposed contract award. In this presentation, ill be going over the background. The minimum requirements pursuant to administrative code 2. 81 through 2. 814, and the bid evaluation and recommendation. A little about the background . In 1994, voters passed proposition j, mandating the office of Contract Administration to bid out services annually per city code. The city is required to post businesses of government business in newspapers that are locally published and printed. Every year, o. C. A. Presents the bids and awards the contracts based on mandated evaluation guidelines. O. C. A. Processes the bidding and contracts on behalf of the clerk of the board, and the board of supervisors makes the official awards by designating contracts for the outreach advertising. The minimum requirements per the ad trayvon code. For community newspapers, they must be printed in San Francisco on one or more days in a calendar week and circulate primarily in one of the following outreach communities. Lgbtq, African American, hispanic, and chinese. The bid and the bid evaluation, we received 12 bids in a timely manner. Only four of those bids did not meet all the qualifications per the admin code. Those are the San Francisco bayview, sin qao daily, the San Francisco times, and noe valley voice. O. C. A. Can only name the following newspapers for award. Contracts for fiscal year 2020 to 2021, we are requesting 40,000 based on current usage. Thank you. Chair fewer thank you very much. Any comments or questions from my colleagues . I have one. Supervisor mandelman . Supervisor mandelman yeah. So two publications that are read in neighborhoods in my districts by a lot of folks who may not have made it onto the list are the noe valley voice and the bay times, and im wondering why those are not included. Yes, thats a good question. So per the administrative code, the newspapers must be printed in San Francisco and circulate on a weekly or monthly basis, depending on if its the community or the newspaper. So for noe voice, unfortunately, its the circulation. I think that they they combined some monthly ones, so they did not meet the requirements per the monthly. And i think for noe voice and im sorry. What was the second newspaper that you were supervisor mandelman San Francisco bay times . San Francisco Bay times, they also do not print in the city, and also, their circulation is not what the code requires, unfortunately. Supervisor mandelman okay. Great. Thank you. So although i know you cant recommend these to us, i believe the board still has the authority to amend these publications into the resolution, and given the readership enrolled that the noe valley voice plays in the neighborhood and the San Francisco bay times plays in the castro and neighborhood, id like to add those, and i think that supervisor fewer would like to add one, as well. Chair fewer id like to add the sing hao daily because many in my Community Read these newspapers. So wed like to add the two newspapers that supervisor mandelman added and the sing hao daily. Madam city attorney, are those substantive . No, madam chair, theyre not. Chair fewer okay. Madam clerk, please open this up for Public Comment. Clerk if you have not already done so, please press star, three to enter into the queue. If you are already in the queue, please wait until the system indicated you have been unmuted. Operations, please let us know if we have any callers who wish to provide Public Comment. Operator yes, i have two callers in the queue. Can you hear me now . Chair fewer yes, david, we can hear you. Okay. Sorry. Hi, david pilpell again. Several points. I am a regular reader of neighborhood newspapers, and i support them. This advertising is important. These ensure these newspapers stay in business. Keep publishing and have robust distribution plans in the community and throughout the city where appropriate. Now more than ever, we all need to stay informed about city and neighborhood news and views, community and Neighborhood Outreach advertising is a small but important part of informing people. I support the proposed resolution, thank the o. C. A. Staff who worked on this and urge your support. I think the amendments that youre making, supervisors mandelman and fewer, thats fine. The board has traditionally made that kinds of amendments over the years for noncomplying publications for exactly these kinds of reasons. And finally, to linda wong, if you could please post the staff presentation in legistar, thank you all very much. Chair fewer thank you very much, mr. Pilpell. Next speaker, please.
