>> all right. good morning, everyone thank you for your patience welcome to the tuesday, july 26, 2016, meeting i'm katie tang and to my left is supervisor yee and chair farrell will not make it we'll make a motion and clerk linda wong and thank you jennifer lowe and march. >> completed speaker cards and documents to be included should be submitted to the clerk. items acted upon today will appear on the august 2nd board of supervisors agenda unless otherwise stated. >> thank you. can what he get a motion to excuse our chair farrell today. >> all right. without objection thank you item one please. item number one reduces for the rec and park department to accept from the how administration a design and development services for approximately $1.7 million for the ocean beach trail. >> thank you very much and just a few brief comments i supported this item and thank you to the various agencies we're working with on we're dealing with the severe erosion facing at the great how south so we're excited about an update project in conjunction as the vital issues with dealt with with that, i'm going to turn it over to rec and park for this item. >> good morning supervisor tang and supervisor yee my name is tony the grants manager for the rec and park department capital improvement division and on behalf of the department to request our recommendations to accept and an cycling grant if the how approximately, $1.7 million the administration authorizes the general manager to enter into the grant agreement for the project the federal how administration grant will handle the trailed project and administrative code by the federal lands how division with rec and park oversight the project located on the western lanes of great how between skyline and sloping those will be permanently closed as part of how reroute project by the public works the rec and park department has jurisdiction over this portion of great how and has been working with the national park service and spur and several agencies to develop a plan to provide assess to the parklands to this end the rec and park department proposes to create a pedestrian bicycle trail on the completion of the reroute project the project will include the surfacing and 8, tenth of that mile for asphalt a 12 foot wide pathway that will provide two-way multi use transportation between slope skyline and the removal of one and 60 square feet of asphalt the revegetation of one and 69 square feet with nature plant and to manage the soil and erosion and bicycle parking and automobile parking upon approval the grant we'll move forward with the environmental review and design and expect it to begin in 2018 and completion will happen around july of 2018 on hand i have the project manager who what o can answer any questions i'm available to answer any questions. >> thank you for your presentation can you talk a little bit about about the matching fund. >> the grant match is requires 11.4 percent of the entire cost the grant if prop k that was approved at the yesterday's - san francisco transportation authority board meeting we have a match in place. >> okay. great thank you very much seeing none, no questions at this time and no budget analyst report public comment on item one. >> any member of the public wish to speak. >> i'm from the bicycle coalition we're thrive to see i'm happy to see this today, the biennial transportation and ocean beach master plan thank you for usual long dedication for the ocean beach really open space for people we're seeing this throughout san francisco before the closer of the openly up for people biking and walking and ocean beach has particular serpz with tsea level rise we'r glad significant public benefits with the trail and your commented to this over the years. >> thank you very much. is there any additional public comment on item one please come on. >> i'm the district congressman for jackie spier and this is a, long time collaborative process between the community and the city and it is a wonderful project we hope the board of supervisors will reenter into the agreement thank you. >> thank you very much is there any additional public comment on item one seeing none, public comment is closed. if we can get a motion to send this with a positive recommendation to the full board. >> all right. without objection. >> thank you item 2 please. item 2 resolution approving the amendment to a contract with al stone transportation to manage and extend the contract for an additional amount of 45 plus million. >> i believe we have john haley from the sfmta. >> good morning, supervisors thank you for the opportunity to address you on this topic back in 2012, we started a very focused program with our support to renew and rebuild our fleets that led to a number of procurements you've helped us accomplish to make the service better and today, we're asking you to continue the support for management initiative called the vendor managed inventory is somewhat unique to our system where the needs are unique in terms of our fleet we run a very diverse set of cars we run old cars many of which have suppliers and sub suppliers gone out of business and so what is put before you two years ago a management initiative to use a vendor management to allow us to improve our service and to improve our best practices and what i hope to show you this morning that the efforts we've made have been successful and we ask your support and experiencing the option in the last that two options in the contract going forward. >> the focus of this management effort to improve the rail service that is critical just to direct your attention to this this is the distance the flare this is our fleet of cars what is interesting over the last 5 years a steady increase in reliability this despite the fact the cars are running more miles a focus of the maintenance effort of which this is a part when we came to you 5 years ago and started asking for approval for money for our fleet renewables one of the things you as the board asked show us your maintenance we need better maintenance that is something you need to focus on we've been doing that religion rigging and throats help of looking at the maintenance practices and the staffing levels and looking at how we get a parts on a timely basis to your vehicles so in the case of light rail vehicles our reliability continues to improve and these are the reasons he mentioned this is how we've done this with the focus today how we've been able to address and long standing problem making sure we have the right parts at the right time to support doing our preventive maintenance as well as our repairs on a timely fashion vmi fills a gap from the structure that is bringing on a firmer with knowledge of the industry an expert that works with both materials management staff and our maintenance staff to inu unify the industry and someone if we have a difficult part or concern about quality how do we get this part in i won't go over the issues some of the results we've seen i'll show you in a minute are availability of parts has improved from the service perspective that enabled our safety to improve by doing complete and on time inspections as we run nor miles on the cars because of the increased demand and special event from a business perspective it is lead with the 3 three-legged stool to better forecasting and planning and resulted in psychologist efficiency and in the system this chart simply by showing the consumption huge increase in part consumption this the level of maintenance we need to be doing this will keep the system safe and reliable and justin the best practices to hope to support this is key this is really a dramatic increase over a period of time period of years and we need to do this at this level to sustain and make improvements in the system this is the focus of this has been on the pause but we get help and support with the pcc and historical. >> mr. haley on that chart the huge part increase due to the fact the trains are older or from another reason. >> no, it is not because their older it is because the part consumption is in our maintenance prevented active maintenance program are based on the mileage this show you we're doing all the inspection on time and a complete inspection with the replacement parts ahead of time at regular integrals as called for by the manufacturer not just wade for something to fail part of it has been a problem here with due do lead time and complexity and so the consumption a combination of highly availability, better, more miles run and the other thing about the consumption that allows us to utilize the cars one of the things we've done over the last two years in particular is stabilize the availability if rush how are you don't have two car trains think is l and m and enough cars to schedule the services that's been an issue so the parts consumption is really a combination but really about us developing and growing into the kind of maintenance program that we need to do at your you know we looked at the challenges you gave us to improve the maintenance and we've done that 0 through looking at the practices and staffing levels and the kind of work we focused on campaigns or over halls of components and systems that fail all the time all those things have lead to the improvement and the parts consumption does that answer your question. >> okay. thank you. >> on the by his side we have for years struggled with virnd as one of the other side of having a difference fleet is having parts from one type of vehicle that didn't fit on another vehicle our practice to rotate or turn the inventory over one of the things we've seen no more now the expectation rather than the rule when a mechanic has to make a repair fills out a card and walks to the window as has the part that was not always the case this is something to be focused of a better planning effort so we know the parts we need that means both business economics and service and reliability when we look to extend this we look at other alternatives to not extending the option, however, we think this extending the option builds on the success that is, established and the best alternative to right now we are asking you to you to exercise two options the budget analyst recommendation was to extend those two options we embrace that we asked originally for an additional two years in their report which we continue to support they suggested prudent to exercise those two options right now and wait to see what the marketplace looks like in two years with the additional completion that's a wise recommendation we'll endorse that and pledge to do with that time is i mentioned is a model that fits outline unique circumstances of new and old i think what we'll want to do at the sfmta work with other transit systems to develop a market i mean right now not a lot of people that provide parts for equipment no longer made maybe opportunities as our new l l v to work with additional concerned we support of recommendation and ask today fewer approval to exercise the last two options. >> okay. >> great, thank you for your presentation do you have any thoughts about the contracts for the bus fleets as well. >> yes. we have we're on our 8 procurement for rubber tires for the including the option we've exercised and going to look at that with new flier that is manufacturer of both buses and trollies we think that is a concept that will work and summit our best practices we're going to look at that over the next several months. >> okay. and then i know that you had a chart that showed the average distance between breaks down and maintenance requirements and that has obviously in terms of the miles traveled increased over time that's a good thing in terms of translateable terms for the muni passengers what are they seeing for example, reductions no details and set forth what other metrics do you have to show this system is helping to improve the turn on or near time when you have an issue. >> i think that on a daily basis now with vehicles we have bus and rail between 50 and 60 details on average the chart i showed you called mean distance between failure mentions how long the cars run before a mechanical defect and that mileage goes up it causes not to delay that is a symptomatic less details i can provide you if you request specific numbers of details we have right now versus back to 2012 on the rail system for the power but this number the viability will not look like without a reduction. >> great we would like to see this information. >> supervisor yee. >> in regards to your i think what you're talking about is consistent might make sense but maybe make sense but wonder if you have factored in the fact that we have been purchase a lot of newer vehicles and i would think you - when we were purchasing new vehicles that was about oh, won't breakdown as often not old and we won't have to maintain them as densely as the oldest ones so when you talk about spend less or being more efficient in terms of breaks down is it due to the maintenance of older vehicles or are we factoring in the fact that newer vehicles don't breakdown as often. >> let me try to make sure i understand your question, sir. >> i think that the details in the breaks down inherently older vehicles breakdown more in the case of the vehicles we showed here i would suggest that they were probably under maintained for a number of years for a varieties of reasons that's not so what we've done as we began to look at the fleets to improve the maintenance practices so the fact we're able to get older vehicles to one vendor is a combination of making sure we do our inspections on the mileage cycles so the training the mechanics part of it is understanding those part that have been difficult to get so frequently parts we're not replaced on the integrals they were supposed to be so those things as well as part of it is we focused on the day to day servicing my name is if the vehicles have a problem while in service can you recover quickly those kinds of things that is a combination of things and having the what this bmi practice provides is the ability to get us the parts that we couldn't get before - >> i think i'm convinced that you are thinking about all those things i'll actually, the question comes from commissioner sanchez thoughts in terms of how we measure the effectiveness of the way we're this system you have versus the old system and it will show that we will have smaller breaks down when i see the data i'm suggesting the data should be apples to apples we shouldn't for instance, when include the maintenance records of last any new vehicles we purchased in the last two or three years because in the past we had a lot of older vehicles we should compare the data with older vehicles. >> understood and on the bus side we have that data and we will provide data right now we have no new rail vehicles we will later this year have them and, of course, start that practice i agree i understand now thank you. >> thank you very much so at this time go to the budget analyst report on item 2. >> yes. madam chair and supervisor yee we report the actual contract expenditures of the contract from september 1st, 2013, to august 31st, 2016, are $29 million plus the contract budget to be for the remaining for august 2018 is $25 million plus in a subcontract of $55 million plus that is for the 5 year contract and an option on to basis to august 31st, 2020, will increase the contract by $25 million for a total amount of $80 million plus and this is shown on page 3 of our report. >> on page 4 we note that the sfmta originally decided my understanding it concurs with our recommendation we report they decided not to issue an rfp for the management services for the parts and instead to expand the contract from cement first 2018 to august 2020 to it is provided the services that resulted in efficient and cost effect purchase of parts and sfmta has not identified other contractors to provide the services for sfmta l r v we conclude on the bottom of page 4 to extend the option for additional two years through august 31st, 2020, is two years into the future the availability of contractors to provide the parts for the management services could change no our recommendation on the bottom of page 4 we recommend you amend the promoted resolution as the same data as august 31st, 2018, and reduce the contract not to exceed by $25 million plus and $80 million plus to $55 million plus if you accept that recommendations this will eliminate the $25.5 million for the two soltice in order to allow a new option for 2018 and recommend you approve the recommendation as recommended. >> mr. haley sounds like you are in agreement with that recommendation? >> yeah. >> great so why not public comment for item 2 anyone wish to comment on item number please come up seeing none, public comment is closed. >> now a motion to adopt the budget analyst recommendation. >> i make a motion to adopt the budget analyst report with a positive recommendation to the full board. >> without objection. >> item 3 resolution authorizing the department of health to accept and expend a gift of a collection to the laguna hospital and the rehabilitation fund. >> thank you. we have deanna chang from the laguna honda. >> good morning. i'm here on behalf of the laguna honda and we're grateful to the lady for her generous donations nostrils a need with the laguna honda hospital we will provide fund for disabilities for a high-level of injuries or mropz or strokes the technology it had any tool that helps individual to their environments and help to gain independence with a meaningful activity so example of the use of those are voice activeed and communications devices we are currently in the process of developing the program plan to meet those residents of greatest need with those devices and lastly a new code with laguna honda gift fund with the donors to sustain the program. >> great, thank you and supervisor yee is the sponsor of this item. >> oh, yeah. i wanted to thank you for being here laguna honda hospital is right in my district and one of the places i've - i seem to be visiting all the time i want to make some minor amendments to this and i just passed out the amendments to you so i would like to make a motion to amend the title to accept and expend the gift of molly frencher one thousand dollars and assistant technology equipment and services and then i also want to motion to amend the description for an authorization for the department of health to retroactively accept and expend the gift from ms. molly fefrner to the laguna honda hospital found fund for the equipment for residents at the lounld where otherwise i - >> thank you. we'll take that after public comment on this item so at this time we will go to public comment on item 3 member of the public want to speak seeing none, public comment is closed and so there was a motion to adopt to clarify the donation from ms. flefrn in her if technology and excitement without objection and want to send forgot with a positive recommendation without objection. >> item 4. >> item 4 ordinance for the police code to make the technical parents lastly with original intent. >> thank you i don't know if anyone is here to speak from supervisor wiener's i believe elena is here. >> sorry ellen had to attend another meeting we've worked closely with a supervisor wiener's and the city attorney's office no change in the intent of the original legislation that is simply to help to coordinate the paid leave and mostly just procedural. >> supervisor yee. >> i'm a co-sponsor and looking at the technical amendments and respond. >> want to appreciate our local office here all right. so at this time questions or comments in budget analyst report item 4 anyone wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. and move that with a positive recommendation to the full board >> without objection item 5 please. item 5 resolution approving the 7 parties supplemental to memorandum of understanding regarding financial candidates to address the financing for the corridor e ;line indication so if you want to just identify yourselves on the record. >> i'm with inhabits and speaking and giving you a short presentation. >> i thought i'll give you a context first of all, we want you to orient you to $7.80 miles to gi roadway from san francisco san jose we're talking about the project it is really take place in an area of the corridor that caltrain runs this slide really tells a picture what we're seeing on the system dramatic growth year by year and the last 6 years droubld the riderships we're over 60 thousand riders everyday on the corridor there is a lot of these ways to measure the ridership one the seating expanded we measured under trains northbound and a lot of people are standing when we took those in the low ridership this is higher in the months we see more folks on the corridor now i think that the picture tells a thousand words as you can see from an average day looks like on the system we're seeing train is not only northbound but southbound we have a directal route that is unique and it breakdown to 60 percent of ridership northbound and 40 experience southbound the services toughing community and key areas throughout the corridor we hear a lot from rider we're hearing from businesses a tremendous economic activities that happened on the corridor a lot of commuters don't think this to get to their jobs 75 of caltrans are talking to to work and 60 percent have access to a car but choose caltrain so 60 though plus riders were pushed on the 101 we'll see nor congestion that make people's lives difficult. >> now we're doing stems for the short time capacity if you look at the train you'll no some of the cars are is a different color diesel cars to out on the system a short-term fix what is needed a few transformation of the system an aging fleet and can't stack more cars there is performance and infrastructure concerns. >> so would what we want to move forward this is how we'll add it with the caltrain modernization this is two systems a signal we finished all the construction and in the testing phase there is also growing pains with a project that is one that has been mandated from the federal government and systems across the country are implementing that on the front edge of implementing and i'm available to answer any questions but the focus the presentation is on the corridor electrical indication that is driving the desires for the funds to move forward with that critical project and other projects to come so again, the - the infrastructure will be overhead contact and compatible with high speed rail now electric trains and we will be replacing 75 of our fleet of the diesel and the services is 79 mile-per-hour but able to increase the services this is really important for our riders in the community along the corridor to add trains per hour and change the pattern i've got to get is that in the next slide and in the intern a - they'll continue to serve the corridor so this slide gets to the service benefits and so again, we're increasing the number of train per how are they start and stop faster and one of the popular train the baby bullet in 60 minutes from san francisco to san jose and electrical trains in 45 minutes or keep the 60 minutes it is driven a lot of the ridership we can with 13 stops and set out the number of people that are riding the system and make sure that trains that a lot of people are interested in and increasing the ridership supervisor yee. >> just as a quick question so no so confused when you say 5 versus 6 trains are you talking 5 cars or 5 local moves. >> 5 trains in one direction on this slide we're highlighting the benefits when you replace a diesel with electrical when green house gas emissions and cleaner air but also one you may not have been the engine enjoys the electrical are quieter than cars with gas line and this shied the funding we wanted to highlight that it has been a partnership to put this together 17 cities and a federal regional and local level to have this go forward our federal partners have worked with us with the core capacity and the obama administration loaded $73 million and an additional $25 million and we'll be working with the caltrain and along the secretary of transportation and committed over $7 million and our partners combined we'll have the support to move forward with this project. >> and what you are addressing today a that party supplemental ms. an agreement that builds on the 9 party agreement that started this project from here we have a lot of partners as part of this and again that support is clearly demonstrated owe the anonymous support and thank you both for your votes for the part of transportation authority to vote on the end understand of june those make up the backbone and oversight protocol our partners are vetted in the project and understand where we are we already have san francisco attending the meeting for both promotions and look forward to continuing that update and we don't give you this update but happy to come back as we move forward with a project this slide again reinforcing we have so many support people are asking with the capacity we have and the needs not future we'll continue to grow and how quickly can we get this project right now it is environmentally clear with the funding agreement we'll be able to hit the key milestones to have in 2020 an electrified vehicle and one and 50 years old so we're looking at to 21st century my slide the electrical indication is the foundation we can do more in the corridors without that we can't get to the downtown transit center we want to see and serve the business community and let the all the way down improvements as the system to have the fully electrified fleet and high speed rail not a partnership to get to downtown san francisco if we didn't put in place the electrified system as part of the project and in the middle of the environmental so thank you for your time and we appreciate your support and wanted to move forward and i'll be happy to answer any questions you may have. >> if you have any. >> thank you very much for your high-level presentation on this i'm actually ask to go to the budget analyst report first, i think i have questions on the funding mr. rose pointed out. >> madam chair and supervisor yee on page 9 of our report we note the revised cost for the early strategy projects for the peninsula of the system for the caltrain and the high speed rail is $2.21 billion one billion dollar for the peninsula electrical indication and 200 plus the communication based overlay signal system and the proposed budget for those two projects on page 10 we have a table two which shows the funding sources for the projects and on page 11 we note the city has not identified funding sources for $16.5 million for the new contribution of $20 million ultimately that goes up do $80 million with respect to the $20 million $16.1 million has not been identified and for that reason we consider approval for the policy matter for the board of supervisors because that funding sources has not been identified. >> thank you very much so there were other information as well in the report you know, i saw for example, that part why we're here with the supplemental or summit to the mou the increased costs of peninsula interpretation project going from 1.225 to one plus billion dollars some of the reasons in terms of i think that was increased costs to the project so i am wondering if someone from caltrain can explain. >> absolutely our cost estimate was bans 2008 from that alone there are some solution but done the due diligence to scrub the numbers and this is pretty old when we updated in 2014 we did a deeper dive and looked at it what that means to build this on is an tuff railroad to make sure we have the 60 thousand bus rides and help them and scrubbing the numbers and consistency the federal and the fta asked us to put for contingency into our project. >> were there me issues with the project itself or so forth or just those two reasons. >> no, i mean caltrain has had on the books to electrical, if any, the system for thirty years so the idea and the scope of the project hazard remained it is bringing it up to date and getting the bids that's the last one the internal numbers but just a couple of months ago bids were in place until the end of august we mean to center the fund for the funding partners to hold the bids if they lapse we could - more there to the project. >> given the funding that mr. rose identified and in terms of san francisco share not identified 16 point one million dollars of the contribution i don't know if it should be a ta question or - mayor's office question but i would like to figure out what our plan is here to identify the fund gaps. >> good morning, supervisors anna deputy director at san francisco municipal transportation agency of the million dollars that is to fund the mou and prop k has sales tax program we've received the funding request if caltrain and we'll present did request to the transportation authority in september but following execution of mou certainly the additional funds are eligible for one of the regional transit categories that is in the revenue measure that will be on the ballot in 2016 in november funding from the general fund set aside so for transportation and homelessness this is part of expenditure plan proposed in the new revenue measure. >> just for the record will you stayed how much is amended in the tax proposal for november. >> i believe 16.1 the difference between the 20 and the prop k funds we've identified. >> supervisor yee. >> just a logical question what if then what. >> meaning what if it didn't pass. >> certainly i mean san francisco will need to provide the funding and we would need to work to identify funding sources. >> oh, have you started doing that in a contingency plan. >> you know the one thing i want to add to this conversation a commitment to secure the funds we're not on a timeline once we find the mou we expect the $16 million tomorrow or the day after the ballot measure the mou didn't specify where the funds come from i understand the desire to know where the funds come from and work with the city administrator but the $60 million if for the project we won't expect that on day one it's just a little bit of helpful information. >> my feeling if we make a commitment we should be committed to accomplishing i'm just wondering you know what is the reality accomplishing this. >> i would say that we'll identify the funding sources i mean this is a extremely important project for the city and county of san francisco we have been able to fully fund the 60 commitment to the mou in 2012 that was prop a had not passed on the go bond fund that funded the $39 million or so towards the $60 million so we were in a similar boat at this time but we'll identify as a city and county the remaining amount. >> thank you. i guess i have a followup question about it seems the larger investments we have that requires some time to get to it by the time we get to it, it is going up because of what you stated a unknown factors i've seen what happened to many of our infrastructure cost in san francisco there's not even going 5 or 10 percent doubling in a lot of cases are you anticipating any more increases. >> i'm not. >> (laughter). >> you know, i think we understand that the importance of maintaining the schedule and budget we have in place and accept e especially with so many other partners in place we have an oversight protocol in place all the partners that are contributing the fund can be part find process and you know identify issues before that he become issues we're doing everything we can in our power to make sure this stays on time and budget i know one project in san francisco that is meeting that we're working with all the partners that have been successful in making sure we learn from them and have them and stay on track. >> so this is sort of changing direction but the trains that will be electrical will it be able to go to transbay. >> only the electrical trains will go to tb and the diesel will not that's the reason to get this project in last as quickly as possible. >> that's good news i'll support this. >> thank you supervisor yee you mentioned the oversight and building on supervisor yee's previous request about cost increases certainly i know every time not just this project but many large projects that come before us asking for increases whether a contract or amend an mou because of the unanticipated are you know unforeseen circumstances can you talk a little bit about about the protocol what was it put in place and exactly what that does. >> i believe a copy was in our report but put in place because we meet on a regular basis with the funding partners and had a monthly meeting we bring together the stakeholders and realized it is more important to have them individual the protocol what in the last 3 months in place and being active we know our funding partners wanted in order to support this mou this is what we have the support from the partners what it does it let's the staff come to the meetings we can come to the project team and the schedules meeting and the budget ones i think we have almost a dozen meetings we've opened up to the partners. >> that's kind of the high-level but make sure they're part of project. >> okay. i think that i know that this is incredibly important project i think that just in putting on my ta hat perhaps deeper dive in terms of the project management for all the components that combats is embarking upon perhaps schedule something which i chair or at the ta board that had been important. >> yeah. >> to do a deeper dive. >> this will be more important to keep the partners involved and know wherewith we are with the schedule i'll be happy to do >> at this time then do we have anyone wish to comment on item number item 5 if so, please come on up. >> good morning bryan from jackie spier director she supports the project and ratifying this proposal this project is eligible for a little bit over one billion dollars with the historic events that bought us to this today all over the place senator obama was electricity president he is a supporter of government programs that's where the billion dollars or so is coming when you start to look at the made up of this it is a time sensitive problem we have if the combats folks are not able to get if full funding signed by the government then this is possible the obama and g don't know the commitment to the next president of the high speed rail we urge the board to go forward and fully participate and enjoy the benefits of electrical indication thank you very much. >> thank you very much. >> hello, i'm bryan i'm a member of the friends of dtx we urge you to support this agreement because of the development going on in both near the transbay center and even with the future plans for the central soma corridor south of the freeway we have so many buildings going up we need to get people to downtown and to soma and without the increase with the electrical indication and the new vehicles we're going to have an assess problem with getting people to downtown and as mentioned earlier this is obviously a stepping stone towards getting rail into the tb sooner that is a critical project for both the city and the region thank you very much. >> thank you >> next speaker, please. >> good morning peter straus for the san francisco transit riders our board has not taken the position on the electrical indication but consistently sports the downtown extension of caltrain and go eventually high speed rail to the transit center we think that is the most important major transportation capital priority for the central subway and feel this is something that should say expedited by all means the electrical indication is letter of the law as stated several times one of the projects that is essential about we contemplate extending caltrain to the terminate we believe they're a a number of funding sources that can be utilized hopefully, the sales tax weasel pass in november that's the those obvious using the progression that can be utilized you have already sponsored this once as sitting as the transportation authority and i would hope that you'll support it again as sitting as is of supervisors thank you very much. >> thank you very much. >> next speaker, please. >> hello, again i'm an advocate director for the bicycle coalition on behalf of the 10 thousand plus members caltrain our members care about and as we know with the numbers themselves caltrain has historically been one of the worlds leaders in providing this - people actually have more options where jobs where they're going and hope that you now you're wearing the board of supervisors hat and mou move forward we know that san francisco every transportation network is add it's limit so electrical indication is important to make sure there are more options in the future that are sustainable and we as the city are reducing auto congestion on the street and appreciate the comments around the further cost increases we agree that san francisco can't continually find now revenue measures that the costs might change but echo peter's comments there are new options and hope that mou can move forward thank you. >> i'm curious can you ask you a question. >> supervisor yee. >> what are your thoughts about the option. >> pardon. >> what's the thoughts about the revenue other peoples money. >> i'm pleased to say that this san francisco bicycle coalition is endorsing the bart measure and the three quarters sales tax measure that decision was made last night those measures are important when we - it comes to the holistic transportation in san francisco and the bay area they came out of the mayors 2030 task force we were members of. >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> good morning, supervisors my name is restraining order lane i wrote to you a couple letters on the issues i hope you had time to read them i live in south san jose you may wonder why i'm not in support of this project in its current form a lack of capacities on the cost of mous how can anyone stand in front of and ask you to spend $6.75 percent of the fleet we have bike capacity reached over 50 percent when you put that into the the capacity of the train by 25 percent of the entire fleet with $200 million less the second issue with the time and the cost of the electrical indication nothing wor electrifying it doesn't make sense spending more money than the world electrifying something we'll get later and i'm requesting a no vote for the administration who first job will be to complete a full analyzed starting with awkward passenger and i got 30 seconds left of the funding more serious than you think $600 million of property bonds that can't be employment caltrain to introduce legislation that will modify the bond language because currently this project didn't qualify didn't make it possible to go the the transbay in the thirty- thank you. >> thank you very much. >> any other members of the public wish to comment on item 5 seeing none, public comment is closed. i'm wondering in caltrain or any other entities could respond to some of the comments from the last commenter i know if you wouldn't mind addressing as many as you can >> you know rolland comments well, i've seen him at the a lot of the meetings i wasn't writing them all down but maybe on the funds side one of the most relevant our commitment with the california high speed rail authority is a commitment with the state of california and the transportation entity we signed another agreement with them we brought to the caltrain board and scheduled to go the light rail board with the mou that commits them to providing the funds if they're not able to provide the prop a funds they'll find other sources they're like san francisco everyone may have their own unique set of challenges to providing the funds for the project but to date not one partner that committed fund not put forwarding their fair share on the capacity side i think that is another one that is just something not actually true with that project we'll be able to have more capacity than today and carry nor riders and get ios performance benefits we don't get with electrical trains for the ability for it to stop and start much faster than today you don't get that those are an antiquated stamp maybe the two most relevant and happy to address other ones. >> okay seeing no other questions or comments i'm okay with approving that with the understanding i'd like nor in depth follow-up but for the purposes of budget committee i will be fine with moving item 5 to the full board with a positive recommendation. >> a motion. >> so moved. >> without objection thank you our madam clerk call items 6 and 7 together and sorry supervisor yee. >> one minute recess. >> okay. a one minute recess. >> all right. thank you we're back from recess and we're on asking our madam clerk call items 6 and 7 together >> the issuance and delivery of multi family in an aggregate not to exceed $32.1 million for the acquisition and construction of an 83 multi family rental housing on mission street within the city and item 7 approving the exclusion of real estate in connection with the acquisition of the parcel on mission street. >> thank you very much we have adam here from mayor's office of housing and community development. >> good morning, supervisors. i'm adam i'm the porlg for the mayor's office of housing and community development and here for the affordable housing for the mission street an issuance for a resolution for the revenue bonds and the purchase of the grounds at the site as for the bond issuance the transaction is not changed since mohcd prepared this and inundocumented to the committee and the issuance is a condo fuentes and all the project units will still serve families aribnb more than 50 percent and many of the units serve the families that are at risk of homelessness so very deep and not capping the tenants as we've mentioned previously as for the land disposition the purpose ground lease on the lp that is controlled by the tenderloin neighborhood development center bout the parcel in 2007 for $5.5 million with acquisition loans if the mayor's office of housing and all of the - importantly at that time, those loans were conditioned on the tariff of land for the construction and due to poor marketing the design were detailed until 2013 and some of the last 3 years the project was revised after a great deal of work with the mission gained the construction in the next few months, however, the poor construction had the transfer of the city that is contemplated in 2007 and hence a resolution before the sales price for the property will be the cost of the original loans $5.5 million that was the budget analyst will mention is a great deal for the city and favorable terms considering the market price is now $17.5 million and the term is also great for affordability 85 years with an option to extend for 14 years this will insure the deep affordability of the project as for a timeline we anticipate bond closings next no with the construction this september construction is to be completed by the end of 2017 by close mohcd would like to request the ground lease we've distributed the amendment to the clerk you know essentially is original resolution referenced the kashlg exemptions under ceqa and there was fabricate a negative declaration we went through an update of the resolution to rise the references to that fact so i'll be happy to read you know the amendments into the record or allow the committee to be provided whichever the committee. >> i think i see unless our city attorney thinks this so be read but it says it is analyzed and received. >> that's right. >> so in closing is chris a representative and on behalf of the mayor's office of economic workforce development we'd like to thank you and ask for your continued support and workers. >> thank you very much for your presentation. >> let's go to our budget analyst report at this time. >> yes. madam chair and supervisor yee on bottom of page 15 of our report we report that the total amount of rent by the tenderloin for worker's comp over the term of '85 lease is one million dollars plus shown in table 2 on page 16 of our report we also report that the proposed development at the 1036 mission street is estimated $50 million plus and that is shown in table 3 on page 16 we do recommend that you approve that proposed resolution this is consistent with the board of supervisors policy. >> thank you i know that you mentioned our report that the proposal is shorter than lout in the 3-d g downtown i wonder in the mayor's office of housing can respond to that why the proposal is basically that way. >> sure two things more importantly financial feasibility and they conducted a study that - they studied the possibility of increasing the height to the maximum and based on you know the increased expenditures this will lead to from you know a complex foundation system the addition of an emergency generator and life safety and all things motto mention the cost of the trades for a larger unit or a larger unit count you know they found that that will cost an additional $20 million to develop this rev r and only 17 units more importantly the additional cost is 3 times the amount of gap funding from mayor's office of housing and community development in addition in terms of timing it was entitled the design they incorporated a greater number of units in 2014 and you know the project received the building permit in june of this year, the project is ready to go and start construction in september of this year you know so any further details will setback a project you know 10 years in the making a great-uncle i appreciate that explanation all right. at this time then i will open up for public comment 6 and 7 seeing no other questions anyone wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. so i'm very supportive of this project moving forward as we all know that affordable housing is the topic so the more we create now is better so and appreciate 40 units dedicated to our homeless individuals or household so at this time let's see if we can entertain a motion to amend item 7 as stated by mohcd supervisor yee. >> the amendment to item 7. >> of course go to those amendments. >> we'll take that without objection and send forth item 6 and 7 to the full board with a positive recommendation. >> thank you very much item 8. >> resolution authorizing the treasure island director to submit a grant application and accept and expend environment of $12 million for the state of california sustainable community program. >> i believe we have bob beck. >> chair and supervisor yee bob beck with the treasure island authority and want to talk about the grant application we filed with the affordable housing and sustainable communities grant program the program is a cap & trade program that was developed by the state and administrative code by the states strategic growth council for the transportation and infrastructure elements that connect disadvantaged community with green house low carbon transportation the application requires a commitment from the jurisdiction to accept and extend prior to acceptance this brings us here today the treasure island program is to develop 8 thousand new homes on treasure island 25 percent of will be affordable up to 5 hotel rooms and office and retail space and new infrastructure and sea level rise adaptations the program was entitled in 2011 and last may we accepted our first land transfer from the navy predemolition abatement began february of this year and demolition in an structural package are mobilized we're a co-applicant with treasure island community development the developer for treasure island and as part of disposition agreement tida are pledged to maturing look at grant opportunities to facilitate the development on treasure island we've developed this working with the tenderloin neighborhood development corporation that is filed by the interest rate and vessels the homeless initiative our current application is focused on the transportation elements of preamble and doesn't include the affordable housing we anticipate playing for this in future cycles our first affordable housing parcels won't be scheduled to start until 2018 and we'll not be able to complete those within the cycle but have many more transportation elements that can be partnered with affordable housing in the future the preliminary scope of the application is sustainable transportation infrastructure the amount of $10.4 million this includes the bus stops at the hub 3 new affordable health care transit i buses that provides service to the i'd like with the first occupancy in 2019 four miles of sidewalks 2 and a half mile of class 1 bike parking spaces and one class 2 bike parking spaces and a number of intersections improvements and bike share facilities and the plazas at the ferry terminal and landscape amenities through the phases of development that includes yerba buena island and the south western corner of treasure island that includes half a million dollars for tida to work with the mobility management tihdi to develop and implement the van pool shuttler busy business to provide a joint assess off the island to critical services and facilities that's the there is no city local match to this application the developer is providing an additional 23 and a half million dollars of improvements to match but i'll take any questions you may have. >> thank you for the high-level view it is important we're planning to build so many more units on treasure island but america's cup a transit installation as well so i know this is very much needed seeing no questions or comments public comment on item 8 anyone wish to comment seeing none, public comment is closed. no budget analyst report for this so supervisor yee. >> i'll make so motion to pass this on with a positive recommendation without objection. >> item 9 and 11 together. >> a resolution authorizing the lease been between the city to be used for retail warehouse and related space on adam street and item 11 to consider the lease funds to the san francisco public library in an amount of $1.2 million for the fascination of several operations into one location. >> thank you. we have our library director here. >> yes good morning supervisor tang and supervisor yee it's my pleasure to present background to lease space at a location on grant street as a that have the background to recognize we've been looking to identify some space that will house some collections we have in bruce hall that is locally inadequate for the needs we have for some of the archiveal collections in the distribution program working closely with the department of real estate they've visited identified this as multiple functions for the library i want to highlight as you know the city collects materials that are important for you historical preservation purposes those materials will be relocated to the location on 750 brannan street and in addition, we have ass also have the redistribution program a collection of materials that deselected in the collection and made available for nonprofits and schools and so forth to have those last year, we have 75 thousands of materials we donated for a good cause and the city ordinance required to make them available bruce hall is no the an ideal location this is a distribution point to relocate on brannan street we have a very active book mobiles and those are spread out two of them are house, if you will, at 39 oh, pier 19 and a half for the health fair we pay rents and the additional two are located at the main library so we'll consolidate this function at this location and make sense to have the staff occupying this leased space and finally there is the proposal that the friends of the library and is foundation will be relocated to be housed at the leased space and pay their portion of rent at this location so we're very optimistic this 10 year lease with options 3 openings options to lease for 5 years lease the space i know that john updyke the director of real estate is here to office specification and our director is here with that, open for in any questions and ask for your support in authorizing this lease beginning in december of 2017. >> thank you supervisor yee. >> so this is a consolidation of several piece of your operation that is coming from different places or - >> that's correct. >> mostly from brooks hall. >> underneath or in brooks hall. >> any reason why brooke hall is not charged. >> it is inadequate in terms of preservation and to retrofit that space will be costly and in the future there is other potential used for bruce hall and asked to vacate that again, just not feasible not realistic to have staff work out of that space right now and again, it is cost proximately caused to assume we'll be able to make the improvements we've been looking for leased space that will meet the needs for the redistribution center in the assembly for the public and nonprofits to assess that again collecting and distributing the prematerials that are selected if the collection and the book mobiles and those functions will be part of the consideration. >> so the question would be since most of what you're the operations you're talking about of books hall not costing money to rent but costing about $10 million or whatever over a 10 year period. >> that's correct. >> what is the budget that your budgeted for . >> yes, it is and in addition to that through the budget cycle we are asking do release some of the money placed on reserve for the 6 months of rent in addition to the city share the tenants improvements but the commission has been aware this is a long term commitment they fully support. >> thank you >> thank you very much and, of course, there have been suggestions in the past we need to do more to improve how is it is we're maintaining the archive information and materials so certainly understand the need and as well as the cost increases for the friends of the library and the current space at the whim of the landlord at the time so at this time let's go to this budget analyst report on items 9 and 11. >> yes. chair and supervisor yee on page if the proposed lease results in net new costs for operating expenses of 8 hundred plus million dollars in the first year go $9 million plus over 10 years shown in table 5 on page 23 of the report so the total net new costs over 10 years with rent operating expenses and improvements of $10 million plus on page 24 of our report the library currently i'll add for years used boxes for the city archives and redistribution at no cost to the library and the use of pier 19 and a half a cost of $15,000 per year we consider approval of this proposed resolution as file 60 plus and the release of the reserve file 16 to be a policy matter for the board of supervisors because of the proposed increases results and significantly new costs of $4 million plus if the board of supervisors approves the lease of this number in the budget reserve the balance on reserve of $545,000 should be returned to the library fund balance. >> thank you is that something the library agrees with and, yes. >> at this time let's go to public comment on items 9 and 11 then. >> seeing none, public comment is closed. i will go so for that 7 brandon is not this is a museum where in fact, some of the materials are housed but it is a good spot for the redistribution program and so forth i'll be okay for item 11 to move to the lease budget committee reserve 1 pt million dollars we'll get a motion to release that and file item 11 >> moved. >> without objection and on item 9 if we can get it motion to send that with the budget analyst recommendation to the full board with a positive recommendation. >> move that two. >> without objection item 9. >> thank you very much all right. item 10 please. item 10 resolution authorizing the lease open 56 street to 309 with more parking stalls with the townsend option for the monthly rental of approximately $15,000. >> well mr. updyke. >> good morning director of real estate john updyke this is a lease really a renewable of a prior lease and the third floor of 56, street that is over 3 thousand square feet that takes united states out to 2031 it serves the needs of the jailhouse services and here with the doorstop to address why this is an important sites for them relate to the lease it is while it is resist of the marketplace and has a rather high price tag of $58 square feet the good news negotiated a fixed rate for 5 years so you're seeing the last item had a normal 3 percent this didn't have any there through 2021 and additionally we'll pay all the additional costs beyond the base rate that is modified modest of $1 plus square feet we did do an extensive analysis of comparables urban reversals ernlz in a couple in particular thought were resist and a total of 12 that were televised our consultants ranging from 59 a square foot to $73 a square foot a couple of san jose are shown and completing an appraisal for the file given the ranges of comparables and the deadline to get to the board before your recess that item will be delivered before this is heard by the full board we have confidence that will support the item but 2, 3, 4 in the - >> one of the key things it's proximity to three or four and but the need for jails and what had means if we rebuild something those issues have to be sort of out but in the meantime, we need those to be sort of out. >> budget analyst. >> yes. as shown in table 2 the total rent to be paid by dpw under the property new lease will be 8 hundred plus and we note that the proposed annual rent of one and 77 plus that's the annual rent is $43,000 higher than the current rent and an increase of 24 percent but the proposed annual rent of $58 per square feet is lower than those looked at by the real estate division we recommend you approve that resolution. >> thank you very much and anyone speak on item 10 seeing none, public comment is closed. >> a motion to move forward with a positive recommendation. >> without objection. >> all right. let's see item 12 please. item 12 resolution for the termination between the bars of san

and proposes to amend the lease and allow for the reimbursement of one thousand plus in unamortized construction costs the budget analyst recommends approval i'll be happy to answer any questions you

far it's come. i'm not sure that when we were renovating the space just a few years ago that we had this opportunity and vision in mind but indeed, here we are today and it's just wonderful. mayor lee thank you for having us in your subject is a beautiful subject is been here all week and it's been a wonderful time. thank you for your partnership always. i think using the mayor has been called on frequented by the administration and it's because we like to go to leaders sought. it's not been by accident you've seen us here working with the mayor quite often. as administrative gsa, i have the pleasure of working with people are very committed to a really having a joint effort when they come to any community could gsa manages over three 75,000,000 ft.2 of space. we manage over $50 with spending occurs through the federal government and has been a straighter and you pointed out, i do have a deep deep background in city administration as well as in other capacities that i care a lot about how we are partnering with community could because when i know him and were working together both at city state and federal level, as well as with the private sector and public sector, the we are at our best and that's when we achieve our best. so when i came in as administrator i prioritize how do we use our physical footprint on knowledge, our access all resources to partner with these partners. as well as to partner with the federal agencies of course. an idea is for us to be able to bring the best foot forward in any place were entered weaver wants to never call her economic initiative which is really about how do we take a footprint and look for opportunities with communities. i think this is a great example of that. you are aware is into pointed out of our 18 f and pts and the work they been doing in digital services and current technology in bringing together that effort to our efforts and the federal government and it's been really exciting. so when asked about what is super public meeting for gsa why are we partnering in what respect to get out of this? i spoke to see us be able to continue to partner with other communities did for me this is just the start. to start an example and a strong example of what it means for how we can really leverage the space we are managing. this space the resources, the people be accessed. that's what is happening here. that is what were all part of today. so this is just a really exciting time for us throughout gsa not just the technology space but for all this that are here because were burning at the same time and will take these learning and share with other communities as well. so, mayor thank you again for coming here. thank you and your team for having the vision as well as city innovates. i've just been excited getting to know the work that you're doing and vision you have not just your locally but international. what a wonderful thing. so thank you for coming here and thank you for choosing this partnership and thank you for having the vision. >>[applause] >> thank you, denise. our next speaker has incredibly strong track record of driving collaborative partnerships in the first mayor in the nation to create an innovation office and city governments. please, welcome mayor ed lee. >>[applause] >> thank you into for that introduction. gsa of instead of ross, thank you for being here. this is one my favorite buildings outside of city hall. it shouldn't surprise you that we share the same architect and it's one of the few buildings like my office that still has curbed the wars. so there's a lot of history that we share but being here in gsa again, connotes a lot of good memories. certainly, it harkens back to city administrator these two director of purchasing a less political position in the city there i had fun. i truly had fun when i was director purchasing, spending the public's money about $1 billion a year buying things but trying to do it smartly and trying to incur local jobs, small businesses, get them involved in the economy of our city. and, even as mayor, we are still making sure were trying to do the right thing as all of our governments are. this idea of super public is exciting because in a few years, you're going to see an absolute necessity for this to happen. while it seems volunteer and innovative to do it now were actually creating the conditions the private sector, for the public sector, or academia, for those in government want to innovate, were trying to equate those conditions now so it has a lot more opportunity to be successful. as a city of innovation, i want to say that were already working not just as a city but is the region, i'm already deep conversations with mayor schaaf and mayor ricardo with our supervisors, in san mateo county about regional issues and making sure were paying attention, more than just what the part on has for the immediate future. more about our challenges and how we ly work outside of our sideload cities and counties and into arena where we can really and truly invite the private sector to work with us. the academia sector and our innovative arms. it's no surprise that gsa is a partner because it's fast becoming the most innovative arm of the federal government i've ever seen hit their really pushing it well ahead and they're challenging us to be a great partner and we want to be. because we have a lot of things that could withhold benefits to our public if we didn't start working cooperatively. we just are thinking outside of those silos that and you mentioned that we all know is a very fact that prevents us from doing better. and i say that we started this over a year and a half ago as well thinking that to be smarter city, not just an transportation but everything else that we do but transportation is a great example to start out with because if were not thinking more :-), not thinking more collaboratively and innovatively, beyond the cities and into a regional if not a state and federal approach, were going to fail. whether it's bikes, whether it's public transportation, whether it's getting less cars have thinking about automated vehicles and how to make them safer, how to use them how to use automation and delivery of goods and products, were going to fill it we don't innovate now and have that spirit. that's why i'm excited about joining our gsa partners and our city administrator, our members of our board of supervisors, and our innovation arm of the city working with the other innovation arms of federal government and state government. this is more than exciting. as i suggest to you super public is going to have to be a necessity because as you look around, not just united states, that's starting to happen in new york and los angeles and allow places, you look at what international cities are already doing. you don't have to look-has, by the way, happy the steel date those of you who have french foundations. paris story got a super public that we are studying and looking at as a model. toronto, under the great international city. other international cities have already figured out that indo global competition that we are engaged in, and we must recognize that, that is those regions that recognize how collaboration and innovation is going to help their cities become that much more successful in a global competition. when not opting out of anything were opting in to a global setting and making sure we are ready to do that even better. so, i am excited as you can probably tell because i didn't, i visited the offices this year and the space that were talking about and i know into says we have not got the furniture yet. but, i will tell you, you got the calendar ready. furniture comes after the talent arrives. i think that talent is here the dedication the commitment is here and i will tell you, i have never stopped trying to figure out how to decrease red tape. how to really convince our public who has to pay a lot of our taxes to say, your money is going into a smarter collaboration that we can be more transparent and telling them how we are cutting red tape. how small businesses can have a federal partner, a star partner, a local partner that says you're going to have a lot less red tape to be more successful. i have never stopped and effort in making sure that our city is talking with all our federal partners to it smarter and we better get how i say procurement officer as our city administrator is, to suggest that we can buy things and still have it at a less expensive price but get payments to our local small business faster so that we can really have a foundation for good employment in the long run. how we can tackle transportation, tackle homelessness, tackle poverty in ways which we never talked about before. yes we've got good ideas in san francisco but the navigation centers, like a cherry, like car sharing. how can we make this a regional thing and academia, with its berkeley mit, stanford were all part of this effort, going to contribute to that because they know that we've got the document we got to talk the man could we do to make sure our models are examples of things we can really share with people, and we've got to prove that we can do it better than the last generated so, excited about this. i'm excited about super public, and i know just in the few years is quick to be an absolute necessity for the global competition and we are helping our country by doing this. we are hoping much of the federal people be better quit estate people be better on local people be better, but as a community of people interested in being smarter about what were doing we hopefully will the public was a breathing that much deeper committed to using your dollars smarter to making sure we do things in language data can really drive and help us. this is what i think super public is and i want to just say, ken, thank you to organizations like the innovate fund and our innovation civic innovation leaders, i did sector comedies like at&t stepping up with berkeley folks and others to really say we can do this even better. but we've got to think regionally now. we can just think is that independent circuit either to make sure talking with sam ricardo and their interest in san jose. -mayor schaaf people in oakland and san mateo because our challenges are no longer just within our region with its housing, dissertation, with there's even a simple idea of procuring. we've got to do it smarter and better in this consistently foundation. it's exciting to be in a room full of innovators to do this. thank you very much. >>[applause] >> thank you mayor lea. our next speaker is the event supervisor mark farrell. his work to communities which the digital divide. please, welcome supervisor farrell >> >>[applause] >> thanks everyone could post about is a tall our gsa partners, the winners always like this in san francisco. you come out for entire week. so please come out more often. i'm truly excited to be here today. from my perspective, super public is the future. it is what we need to be doing across all every single city in the united states. when we think about san francisco as much as we have a booming economy we have issues as cities have all the time. whether it is mayor lea mentioned, the housing crisis, we have transportation issues, but they're not singled out for steve and cities across the united states are facing these issues. with the homelessness were bridging the digital divide these are issues we need to work in san francisco that matter to our residents. doing it alone in the government is something that is not going to be part of the future could need to partner with a private sector. need to partner with academia specialist visit here in san francisco today the innovation capital of the world and thank you to all our private sector partners will contribute to make this happen today. partnering with you partnering with academic, this is the future. we need to do it together because i will tell you, we cannot do it alone and several also city hall. we certainly cannot do it set up chambers of the board of supervisors we need to do it together as partners. binders and with the federal government or state government together we can do it. we also need our private sector. we need academia to be able to do it together. so i'm incredibly excited to be part of this. take you to all the people who contributed to it. congratulations to all the founding members. i know this is a long time in the making. the most excited about, is not just today but the future. this about our children and making sure as we think about problems as my son jack sits over there, honest will, this generation when we tackle problems not just san francisco problems the regional problems and were not tackling them the city government were tapping together with private sector with academia and that the wording of the best solution yet so congratulations to everyone and thank you i just can't wait for the future here together. thank you. >>[applause] >> thank you, market our next speaker is naomi

federal government to the other one a come over and talk shop were always here for you. ladies and gentlemen, naomi kelly. >>[applause] >> good morning. i was thinking about all the numbers of how much office space you manage and how much procurement you have and its enormous. i was very proud of our numbers we manage the city of san francisco about 4,000,000 ft.2 of office space and $1 billion in procurement and we manage 25 year-tenure 25 million capital plan. and compared to those numbers that's small. compared to the gsa. but, it's really great to be here today because of the chair partnership that will have with each other in sharing best practices, learning new innovative procurement policies, it policies. it will be very helpful in that it's helping us share relevant data, figuring out what the data we have with the city but good data the government has put together super public is that we can share with each other so we can be much more innovative. there's things were doing here in san francisco just in the city administrator in our local gsa office, looking at how we manage our fleet. how we are using telematics or black box which will behold so helpful to us to figure out when a card word vehicle needs to go into maintenance versus guessing,. rb rightsizing the fleet we see there's a lot of analyte underutilized vehicles but we can reduce the number berkeley. his rc fleet sitting in idling speed we can reduce our greenhouse gas emissions by a relevant amount of data were getting from that. i also upgrade during the next week and am in the process creating a digital service team. we are actively recruiting for digital service officer. this is all about the public experience. how can we in government better serve our residents, art tourists, visitors is a neat services from the government, a website how can we approve our website so they can get the information they need from a resin with the residential parking permit, whether it's a productivity, but it's a marriage certificate there's much we can do to provide services online so folks do not have to come down to city hall or wait in line to get services they need. so, were very excited about our digital service team working with a private industry, working with customer service looking at a processes how to better streamline them as we don't want to automate a broken process and of course working with our it department to make sure that our systems are running smoothly and to make sure all our data is secure because we do-we do want to make sure that everything we do is
