their district addressed the crisis i hope everyone will take their number as a badge of honor in their campaign i want to see supervisor campos choice how many units can the mission add is that lecturey i'm sorry i want this to be a campaign issue for every single person to say how much can we contribute. >> next speaker, please. >> hello my name is milo i think this is a great idea that is this development here so right there is things we can agree on too much competition for housing there are people that are getting displaced and you know what to do about it i have been alternative not to do anything or to hold out and sort of build a limited or as many as and week low income units which will always be limited by our resources and a perfect world we can build as much subsidized housing for everybody, however, the city has constrained resources so what is another option is letting market forces hope and making room for low income folks and for folks who are competing with low income folks for places to live. >> and again yeah 40 percent is great a huge number for subsidized housing for a project again jane kim you are latitude for striking deals of 40 percent subsidized housing this is a home run a great, great project so, please approve it not approve the issuing - >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> hi snooemz i my name is john i'm here to talk about the bay area federation this total subsidized affordable housing will be approximately three hundred and 40 o thirty unions we represent the 6 hundred to one thousand people that will someday live in the units could be as many as 20 times the people in the audience today some of what the comments i'm concerned heard before is where claimed this block was empty or deelect i think that is important to recognize what will be lost i meaningful produced an event at sell space in the early 2000s as an artist it is a very important place in my memory when i balance the fact if everybody in san francisco is paying about $1,500 a month too much for housing compared to the rest of the country i'm willing to skwas sacrifice for one thousand people to be housed i ask you to reject this invalid appeal on its face and rather than throwing the eastern neighborhood plan under the bulls i prefer we come up with a way to limit them or because if we through the eastern neighborhoods plan under the bus we'll spend a lot of time hearing those they know in the planning department and planning commission and you'll still hear appeals thank you very much. >> thank you. >> next speaker, please. >> good work

the castro street r castro and happens tee everyday folks one of the board members that is running in sdraekt one has been daptsded device he worked for mta but one of the realities to project helps

in support of this project and the other 20 to thirty promotions in the pipeline that are targeting the industrial spaces industrial space is not morning dirty space for diversity communities to have diverse jacobs we don't needs that in the future i think the speculative releasing you community partners behind the funding is done stellar work and has a cleaner brighter visions san francisco can't compete with the wall street he investment bankers i feel like this is a time for manhattan we have been dragging our butts through the free speech the blanket eir is another thing this is really supportive node not to pay attention to the public testimony and not to mention the toxic report we don't have to ask any of the former owners about the field company and it's manufacturing of structural appeal that went into the boulders hoover dam san francisco they allowed individuals to learn about automobile anybody else's has a nuisance and encourage awareness in the poor and working-class we don't need an asset hundred educated those companies should move further out of time an eyesore to the vision and regarding the arts the shop at the theatre that probated onsite for 35 years has not a great track readers in the america and to be honest the fabrication in the canned can understand i feel the canada theatre is a much more appropriate term and america america is canned can understand it is all about canada and quite frankly what do they do for communities to be honest every single cultural group in san francisco the africans and the hip hop communities and others were hardly making good art that was presented to art venues and self-dumping didn't do anything sdpipt provide a place for safety for young and inspire countless art spaces i urge you to supporting the cultural genocide that destroys the bylaw collar jokes and deciphers communities in san francisco thank you. >> thank you >> (clapping.) >> any other members of the public that point po to speak in opposition of the appeal seeing none, public comment is closed. >> all right. folks we're almost down 5 minutes by the appellant or the appellants representative please come forward. >> good evening supervisors supervisor president breed and city staff i said to take through a few items quickly we've heard and i thank the supervisors for their thoughtful questions about the concerns raised by the communities and the city staff and careful answers and diligence in answering them question want to point out one ski difference in what we're hearing so a lot of comparison in the discussion between core van project and the bryant street and the fundamental difference we want to highlight we have concerns about the underlying eir that is updated we've heard about and on top of the co-sponsor vine project has granted a project specific gurney and that is the can't take the environmental impact report and grant it for - at this point the impacts with unknown; right? so the impacts are unknown option a, b, and c associated with the impacts they are are along with them levels of mitigation that is opponent and considered and levels of possible community benefits that had been considered how do we consider those things when we're outside the scope and not possible therefore let me bring this up city staff was saying innovate the appropriate scenario for this kind of especially they're saying this is only to look at peculiar impacts whether or not we'll take issue or have to be critical of this conceive exemption and the rest of the code statement and let's see he bumped it here we go. >> if i could have the overhead please the rest of the code statement - i'll read it to you goes on to say the a peculiar to the project or parcel on which the project is located not only what city staff as talking about c they didn't read are potentially offsite and cumulative impacts not discussed in the underlying eir that's you are central contention of the decision that was not properly made 20e at the planning commission and planning department we wanted to highlighted this discussion about the physical impacts what are the physical impacts that accompany social impacts we think there are social impacts that makes the realm of environmental impact traffic so there's a 21 powers decrease in our evening constituent with an 2013 and 2015 did score card is adding 2011 to the thishgd in the country wealthy residents the study shows that the waeshth residents have twice the number of cars and drive them twice as much take place that there are impacts that are physical transportation impacts and the transportation impacts from family turning to drop their kids off at school and take advantage of the services as far as the issue is that r there an upper limit or task i think we're clear we've he exceeded the dwelling unit but an upper cap we think there should be if there isn't whether or not there is or isn't c p are not warranted. >> and finally i wanted to touch on supervisor campos and supervisor yee's concerns and add something that we have an affordable side promised as part of grand and have a process that needs to go forward and moe did a lot of intellect work we have community members that will each of those the affordable project therefore not a good project. >> thank you very much. >> all right. this hearing has been held and now filed and is now closed those items are in the hands of the board of supervisors >> with that, i'd like to recognize supervisor campos. >> thank you madam president i want to give my colleagues an opportunity to ask any questions that they have i certainly have had any questions answered and we want to thank all the members of the public who have come out to speak on this item on both sides of this issue we have two appeals that we are voting on and my understanding from the city attorney we need to take the ceqa appeal before the conditional use appeal with that, my first comment will be precede. >> yes. madam president. >> i'll explain the process we'll dealing with two issues i know i explained in in the beginning out of 27 and 28 and the 29 are the impact the determination that the project at the 2000 to 200070 bryant strait is exemption from further environmental review under an exception involves the analysis of accuracy and adequacy and efficiency of the hearing this is a legislative hearing to overturn this requires 6 votes of board of supervisors and supervisor campos he will let you continue with our comments since no other names on the rooster. >> thank you madam president before i begin to talk about my view how we should precede for the last few days i my staff have been meeting that the proponents of the project and the appellants to hear the concerns and see if there is any way that some of the differences would be resolved our hope and the president to come to a resolution that whether resolve the appeal i want to thank the appellants, thank the project sponsors, for there willness to talk with you and negotiate i believe that each day was meeting in good faith this is one of the situations the sides are too far apart and can't reach a resolution. >> i have come before the board over the last few years in the capacity of the supervisor for district 9 and specifically as a supervisor that representatives the eastern neighborhoods asking this broad to do a number of things 2 has been a difficult challenging time this neighborhood. >> and let me say that one of the most o most difficult and controversial things i have requested of this board of supervisors is this board approve a moratorium on the building of market-rate luxury housing in this neighborhood i believeed and believed this strategic make sense for this neighborhood bus of the way the market works in the mission because my experience that every time that you have space be landlord that is available in the neighborhood and interests very limited amount of land this is available but by the time we as a city or anyone interested in building affordable housing gets to actually try to take over the lands buy it for the purpose of unoccupied buildings affordable housing that land is gone and snapped up by developers that precede to build market-rate housing my support for that moratorium was ultimately not about stopping market-rate housing it was ultimately about the very point i made which is to acquire lands so that we as a neighborhood can build affordable housing on that land. >> that has been the reason why i was not afraid to come forward and propose something i know in the eyes of some people is very controversial having said that, we have praetdz to actually include in addition to that moratorium a number of efforts to protect the character of this neighborhood we have proposed, in fact, today extended changes to the cultural district on 24th street for the purpose of protecting the character of this neighborhood we've requested a number of things of the planning department for the purpose have been protecting the quality - the character of this neighborhood i believe that the mission cannot be the mission without having working-class, middle-income people living in the neighborhoods the challenge we have here is on the environmental appeal the first one i'll talk about the limitations of a ceqa appeal and addressing the overarching concerns that are facing this neighborhood i agree with the supervisor mar that we want to take into account the social impacts of a project like this one whistle blower it comes to a neighborhoods the problem that i have is that i don't believe as much as i want to have this be the case that ceqa becomes a proper forum for that consideration. >> i do believe that we as a city should place limitations other than the numbers of units the number of immunities built not only in this part of the mission but other neighborhoods i i don't believe that ceqa is the way to do that in fact, legally even if question wanted to we couldn't ceqa is a useful tool but a tool that has many limitations and he understand and appreciate the argument that has been made by the appellants a strong argument but in 2, 3, 4 good conscious as a lawyer having reviewed the case last and the standard of review for those kinds of appeals i am unfortunately not in a place to support the ceqa appeal oozing that have been presented it is not an easy thing for me to disagree with people i respect but have to call that has a see it there are things that need to be done by the city when it comes to addressing some of the issues that have been raised i believe the issue of caps and other changes to zoning in this district have to be part of review with map 2020 and i'm committed to make that happen i also am committed to work with the planning department and the mayor's office of housing on any other additional changes or evaluations that are needed so with that, i have more to say on this project on the ceqa appeal i hereby move to approve items 27 and tabled items 28 and 29 therefore not arrestigreeing wi appeal. >> supervisor campos wanted to table the two items and seconded by supervisor farrell and seeing no other names on the roster, madam clerk call the roll. >> madam president i want to say. >> oh, supervisor peskin. >> i want to say one thing that is as somebody at least fantasies themselves a student of ceqa i'll vote for the motion motion as made but something that is fundamentally unfair about ceqa as deputy deputy city attorney ms. burn was he riling us with the wal-mart dedication it makes a remarkable amount of of him resource to actually substantiate the claims so we can make findings to refute that a cpe was inappropriately applied that information is not before us we can't say make those findings by anecdotal i believe that a lot of the folks in the motioning mission use more cars than the folks that used to use in the mission anecdotally those come with traffic impacts and things that what about looked but it requires financial resources as the planning department didn't do with all due respect it examples with the developers that information is not in front of us we can't make the themselves so relight at the end of the tunnel i have to concur with supervisor campos ceqa is unfair. >> thank you supervisor peskin madam clerk call the roll. >> on the motion to table 28 and 29. >> supervisor wiener supervisor yee supervisor avalos supervisor breed supervisor campos supervisor cowen supervisor farrell supervisor kim supervisor mar supervisor peskin supervisor tang there are 11 i's. >> okay item 27 a approvals unanimously and 28 and 29 are tables foe we'll consider the cu appeals the conditional use authorization involved analysis of whether the planning commission determination to authors the project was appropriate this hearing is convoy so to over turn the decision to authorize the conditional use are additional sequences 8 votes of board of supervisors are required with that, supervisor campos. >> thank you very much. >> one of the things that has been remarkable about what happened in the mission is the level of organizing that has take place other than not only this project but around so many projects and this project has certainly coma its been a long time coming and when it was introduced in may of 2013 one project proposed one and 77 units only 16 percent was affordable nothing done about distribution and repair space the project has come its been a long time coming since then the only and clear why this is the case that happened not because of some necessary change of heart on the port of proponents rvrptd that happened because of the community that organized and that became activated around this project that is ultimately that community that brought the project where it is today and let me say that a conditional use appeal provides morally way in terms of what the issues we can look at as a board of supervisors. >> if i had win my moreover, i power given how the housing works in san francisco or anywhere for that matter i would on be approving projects 100 percent affordable that i actually building is what is needed in terms of bringing some balance to what the city has built but that is not something that i or any member of the board has the power to do when it comes to the project the question beyond the specific issues that were erase by on the other hand, christopher whether or not this project a project does enough to address the housing needs of this community of this neighborhood and quite frankly not only does enough but in the context of whether or not a project pencils out and what we have right away right now is a project as right now 41 percent maybe as much as 43 percent affordable housing that will be built if we have a situation three or four more units out of the 3 thousand additional space that is being provided i believe that ungallon this neighborhood is better off having this project approved i understand the challenge of needing as much affordable housing as possible. >> but there are a number of things that have happened in the last to stay loan alone we have pushed the developer and asked what other legal concerns in the appeal this is developer is rightly proposing the elimination of 3 car share spaces on the affordable housing housing side creating an additional 3 thousand square feet of space that can be used for pdr and affordable housing this developer is also providing funding to actually do a construction of a administratively assessable community art space in this building to the tune of 5 hundred thousand that's an important thing and on the side of the market-rate housing 12 thousand square feet of pdrs 4 thousand of that priority to community below-market-rate housing an balance that make sense i'll say there are i imagine difference of opinion one-half heard if the appellants as a district supervisor you have to ask yourself can we do we need more market-rate housing and in some respects i don't think that the answer is yes but in the context of how the market and the rules work the question for me is even more important can we afford to say not to delay 0 this case as many as one hundred and 39 units of affordable housing i don't believe we can i'll all for and have been all for taking on developers asking the and dpandz more affordability and blocking projects i believe have wrong for the neighborhoods and pushing as far as punishing for more turn that will slow down luxury housing but some point we have a responsibility not only to prevent bad things from happening but have a responsibility to make good things happen in the neighborhoods and as a district supervisor i have a responsibility to make sure that affordable housing is built the people that need it including homeless people will benefit directly it is based on that i make a motion to move item 31 forward and table 32 and 33. >> supervisor campos made a motion to strike to move forward the issues seconded by supervisor farrell. >> madam clerk call the roll. >> oh, excuse me - supervisor kim. >> thank you i'll just make my comments brief supervisor campos touched on the elements of the project i want to is this is a very, very difficult project that is before us do i think given in the of how strongly the community feels will the lack of affordable housing in the mission and anything less than 100 percent ava unacceptable in the neighborhoods given what we've seen i understand the sentiment and agree with supervisor campos having done a lot of new york city that's often how to build nor affordable housing the one piece of it i wanted to highest i think that is important this project is dedicating 12 thousand square feet in pdrs and air traffic controller says that a portion of which will annex below-market rate at a set price per square footage this distillation came before us as i'm concerned worked the shareholders that is before us and in fact, we worked to bring together projection f on the ballot to insure that any further development in the south of market and the mission requires developers to replace distribution and repair we know that building more and more affordable housing preserving and rent-controlled units is important, important the future of working-class and middle-income in the city we know that the preservation of pdr is critically important for the fire chief find working-class and middle-income job creation here in san francisco i'm glad that pdr was a big portion of the development that is moving forward my office remains committed to working with the mission neighborhoods preserving the pdrs and nonprofit space through proposition f and any trailing legislation and that come forward and want to acknowledge the work on that the district court puts are forward with the staff in my office he heap we continue to see more mixed development thank you. >> thank you, supervisor wiener. >> thank you very much madam president i'll be supporting the motion and he support this project i think that is an excellent project that will deliver a lot of benefits in the neighborhoods in terms of housing overall and affordable housing and so forth i won't repeat list of benefits for this project that will deliver i'm glad that we are where we are right now i don't know if this is a anonymous vote but it maybe close to a unanimous vote and what a difference a few years makes a few years ago we were in the chamber and how many members supported the moratorium to shut down the mission equipment for 100 percent housing i'm glad it is at least being acknowledged that having mixed use housing is actually how we create the largest number of affordable units and how we create more housing overall at the time he was skewed of channeling the ghost of reagan for daring to say both have affordable housing and other housing we're moving forward with exactly what i've been veronica for today and i'm glad there is support for that this is the right way to go as a city if we are ever have the hope of adding our housing crisis so i'll be supporting this project today. >> thank you supervisor wiener supervisor campos. >> madam president i forgot to mention something i wanted to take the opportunity to thank sheila hastening in my office that has been working on this project for a very long time and as the mom of twins i know that it's been very challenging to do all the things that need to be done to prepare for to look at this fairly and thoroughly thank you very much sheila. >> supervisor kim. >> thank you supervisor president london breed, i.e., want to address the point why this is an inconsistent between the vote today and is motioning mission pause an investment i don't think there is any consistency here at the time the vote happens almost no affordable housing or pdr commitment what is unfortunate about the votes we are doing piecemeal developments in the mix when developers commitment to the affordable housing and pdrs we can approve that would be but the mission moratorium that was a pause in development was an overall studies occupy the entire neighborhood and the production i have housing we can guarantee the affordable housing in the long term without the piecemeal negotiation one by one this is a painful and laborious process for supervisor campos and since you negotiate one-on-one developers in the long term we're looking for a larger vision and plan to sure we don't have to do a peace mail we to ha as an overall to make sure we are producing low income housing. >> thank you supervisor kim. >> seeing no other names on the roster, on the motion to affirm item 35 and table 32 and 33 call the roll. >> supervisor wiener. >> supervisor yee. >> supervisor avalos supervisor breed supervisor campos supervisor cowen supervisor farrell supervisor kim

u unquote i want to give up on the screen. >> sfgovtv. >> an example of what you as a board of supervisors passed every year an $750,000 authorization for the gifts from the friends but if you look at the bottom in the line it says door designated funds $389,000 in reality the amount includes over $300,000 listed as door designated funds while the real doors of funds are denied the generosity for the friends and foundation as federal and local given credit that sounds like donald trump this fails transmission of the friends and transmission even if generous gifts has gone on for years i wonder how the organizations or disabilities are react to the gifts their gifts are credit to another group and whether i try to bring this up to the library commission the secretary of the library commission at a public meeting the friends is a separate group and the commission have no fiduciary responsibility to other money they raise. >> thank you 234e79. >> mission officer the holy privilege

for general fund departments: maintenance economics versus maintenance politics: pay now sf 21234 >>supervisor aaron peskin: thank you. these items are reports to the civil grand jury. the first item is a hearing civil grand jury maintenance budgeting accounting challenges for general fund departments maintenance economics versus maintenance politics. please come forward. >> my name is james cunningham with the civil grand jury. >> thank you, mr. hopkins, good morning. >> good morning. >> that was quite a deep dive. >> thank you for acknowledging that. it was fun to prepare. in fact that report has 19 sets of fingerprints all over it. my fellow grand jury. typically my colleagues. >> if you can put that microphone a little closer to you. >> is that better? >> great. >> who spoke before you 2 weeks ago is a federal auditor and he wrote the section on accounting for deferred maintenance, and he's a man who really knows what he's talking about. also, i got much help from libby dodd who helped me get the big picture. annie who is the researcher, shannon baca who pulled together the appendix information in usable form, richard baker who was again on all the rewrites, betty, who was an editor. she's a great editor and she says here is the problem and how to fix it. and david stein, the backbone of our jury. and steven who had so many practical suggestions about how to proceed. i think it is symptomatic of a problem of maintenance budgeting for general fund department that i'm competing for your attention with two other reports which have a lot more pizza zaz. and that was officer involved shootings and homeless. it's like i'm the brussel sprouts on the menu competing with ice cream and candy. the issue of maintenance budgeting for general fund departments. it's important and needs attention from the top and needs adequate resources. the challenge that i face this morning is condensing a 75 page report with 50 pages of appendices, 73 findings, 73 recommendations into a very short period of time. it's a challenge that can't be successfully done. the advantage of having impossible assignment is nobody expects you to succeed. that's very liberating. in order to catch your attention and the problem is keep your attention over the many months before you will actually get to look at the next budget. i have put in some memory pegs that i hope you will remember. if you flip to tab 2, the first of those memory tabs. >> i just have these by page number. do you have the page number? oh, i'm sorry. i gotcha. yes, i have two. >> it's a photograph of a pretty lady. this lady's name is zra zra gab or. she's from hungary. she came in just as the germans rolled in. she and her family were the kardashians of the day sort of famous for being famous. one of the reasons she was famous was she was married nine times. husband no. 5, confided to his best man on the wedding day, a problem that in a way i face this morning, which is, he said, i know what i'm supposed to do tonight. the challenge is to make it interesting. how do you make talking about maintenance budgeting interesting? the next picture that i hope will be a memory peg, also at tab two is of an event that occurred in this building. this photograph is on permanent display in this building down in the light court. of course it is the wedding of marily monroe and local baseball hero joe demaggio. that marriage didn't last, but marilyn married a playwright, he wrote "death of a sales man" the plot gives it away. the salesman is like maintenance for keeping the wheels of commerce, wheels of government functioning supposedly. after his funeral, one of his grown sons was complaining to his mother that dad never amounted to much. and she rose up and said, in regard to her husband but i think it also applies to maintenance. attention must be paid. it is so easy to ignore the need for maintenance when everything is working properly. i wanted to update our report which was issued in june with some recent developments. the bridge at page 75 has been fixed. that's good. the beach street charter amendment is on the ballot. that's good. there was an article in the new york times about a criminal verdict against pg & e arising in the 2010 gas pipeline explosion. two things in that story caught my attention: the pg & e cut their maintenance budget a year before the explosion. the second thing that caught my attention in that story, the mayor of san bruno was quoted as saying "when this happened, i thought it was a terrible terrible accident, and now i know that it could have been prevented". so, i'm hopeful that in this city we don't face those questions because one other incident that has happened, and supervisor peskin, i know you are very much aware of this one. in washington square park, a young mother was watching her two children play when suddenly a tree limb fell and caused serious serious injury. so, whether that was related to deferred maintenance in this particular case, i don't know. but i think it is symptomatic of the problem. i would like to ask you to visualize this hypothetical situation. it is a baseball field in a city park. the young pitcher is at the mound looking in. at home plate you have the batter, the catcher, and behind them is the backstop made out of metal post and wire mesh. behind them on the hillside, a tree is falling directly towards home plate and it will crush that backstop. i will come back to that hypothetical in my closing statement. okay. very briefly. what did we do? what did we learn? what did we find? we did the standard that all grand jury panels do, lots of reading, lots of investigation. we interviewed about 30 people in the city and wrote and rewrote. what did we find? probably our most important finding which isn't in the report is we found the high caliber level of the city employees we talked to. they were smart, they knew what they were talking about and they are trying their best to do the right thing. that was very gratifying. we also learned that when it comes to budgeting, and we heard this from a colleague of yours, the mayor basically holds all the cards and that it will be 9 or 10 months before you next get to consider budget issues including maintenance budgeting. that's a long day and the lay is easy to forget. another comment that was made over and over by the people we interviewed was one of the reasons they can come up as to why maintenance budgeting wasn't getting much attention and getting cut much of the time is it has no sex appeal. it is not sexy. which is in part why those memory peg pictures of those pretty ladies i hope will counteract to some extent. and, so, i would ask that when you see a pretty lady and in particular when you see these bride's here in city hall everyday, all decked out in their finery, when you look at those bride's, you will think, maintenance. when we did our research, we first looked, okay, this is the city and county of san francisco. let's see what other cities and counties are spending on maintenance. in california, the closest we could find was the city of honolulu. pretty close in size and population. based on their public records, they budget a lot more for maintenance than san francisco does. but as we researched further, we found that's not really the best standard. if you will turn to tab 3 in the yellow handout there, the first page is the pie chart that appears every year in the budget, the mayor's budget book, that blue budget book. in this particular page is all of the uses of funds for general fund departments, and the amount that is budgeted for facilities maintenance is 0.2%. a very very tiny amount of the overall budget that we are talking about. another reason why i don't think it gets much attention. one of the things we learned that i had no knowledge of, had not paid any attention to before serving on the jury was the distinction between the enterprise funds and general fund between departments. enterprise get to decide how to spend it whereas general fund departments acquire monies doled out to them from the departments. the consequence is that enterprise departments spend tend times more than their general fund departments. talking to that, when we talked to general fund departments like the airport, we say how far is your maintenance backlog? zero. they have no maintenance backlog. general fund accounts, how big is your backlog of deferred maintenance. you get various answers. i put one together, a tab 4, going through the 10-year capital plan. my numbers for the general fund departments and they can be quibbled with. there is $1.9 billion of deferred maintenance. going back to tab 3, figure 2, which is that graphic comparison year by year of the growth in the enterprise department's budget for facilities maintenance, goes up up up, triples over a 10-year period versus that same facilities maintenance budget for general fund departments which trended down over a 10-year period. a period of time which the overall city budget was increased by $3 billion, but facilities maintenance was dropping. it's approving a little bit in the current budget, but still a significant problem. the most important surprise to me at any rate is the next page there in tab 3. it's a chart or graph that was produced in response to a document request to the capital planning committee, and it shows the need of each of the general fund departments as a percentage of their crv. crv is current replacement value or sometimes calculated replacement value. that is the one thing about if this board can do nothing else about maintenance budgeting, it would be urged, request, mandate that the city adopt this percent of crv standard to start as where you begin when you start negotiating the facilities maintenance budget. we didn't pluck this system out of thin air. it's based upon a recommendation from the national research council which is the arm of the national academy of science. it is very similar to what industry does through buna and i ma. industries management associations followed by many cities across the country including the cities of san jose, sacramento and other cities. it's not a new idea. i digress for a morning. here this morning is dick morton, most of our ideas were stolen from dick's article. i thank him for that. but getting back to this standard. when i entered the fifth grade we had a brand new teacher just out of teachers college. i walked into her classroom the first day and she had a big banner on the front wall above the blackboard which said, set your standards high and strive to reach them. and i looked at that motto everyday during the fifth grade and 60 plus years later, i still remember it. i think it would be good advice for the city when it comes to maintenance budgeting. set your standards high. take this best practice standard of 4% of current replacement value and that should be where you start. do we need to cut? okay, we cut. we can't make that this year, but we want to come close. supervisor breed, i understand you are an ex- officio member of the planning committee. i would hope that you could use all of your influence on that committee to get them to take this information which they have in their computer system. the frrn. the system and make it public. show it to the board, and show it to your constituents. to make maintenance budgeting less abstract, i think if you can show them this information, what is the best practice standard of what maintenance budgeting should be versus what's in the budget? what is that gap? right now it's a huge gap. and then how that plays out in terms of the facilities of the various departments that are in your individual districts. and then, the deferred maintenance backlog broken down by district. and i think you will get a lot more public interest in adequate maintenance. i'm running out of time on my opening statement. i hope i have some time for my closing statement. and i look forward to what the administrative departments have in response. thank you for your time. >>supervisor aaron peskin: thank you, mr. hoskins. let me say before we bring up brian strong from the capital planning function of the city that many of the things in this report are i think well-known to city officials and are things that we have been grappling for some time. the report from the civil grand jury is very timely in so far as this is the 10th anniversary of this city's effort to have comprehensive capital planning. we now know what deferred maintenance backlogs in the department are. there is no question that there is an endless amount of need and a limited amount of resource, unless you are the airport. because the airport can always increase it's amount of receive -- revenue by increasing landing fees on an annual basis. we can't do that as a general fund department. so we must choose upon our children. you have the police department and the homeless crisis and housing crisis. each year we have to struggle with that in the budget. no question there is a huge general fund maintenance department backlog. and not all agencies have this deferred maintenance fund either. the port doesn't have that either as well. as we want to pay for as much as we go as we can, the reality is that we've had a very robust bond obligation fund through the generosity of voters of san francisco that have allowed us to chip away at that backlog and there is a sense from the government's office and the controllers office that we need to do more. thank you for your contribution. there will be an opportunity for closing statements. we appreciate your matrimonial and baseball analogies. with that, we have mr. strike -- strat from the capital planning committee. >> good morning, members of the committee. brian strong director of capital planning. as the son of a hungarian immigrant i have to wholly agree with the civil grand jury's findings that it's not as effective as z aza gab or. there were a lot of issues that the grand jury raised that we feel very strongly about and agree with in fact with 33 of the findings and 32 of the recommendations have actually been implemented, some of them were mentioned at the start of the presentation here. i also just want to mention that we have several staff on hand that can answer questions, that participated in the report and that includes anthony with the mayor's office, john from real estate, tonya, and mark delarosa from the controllers office and hilda from human resources, and from parks and city planning and from public works. i think i would also say i have been doing the capital plan for 10 years and what the civil grand jury was talking about an their focus is something that is very near and dear to my heart and something we track and work on. we appreciate their effort they made to bring light to this issue and also to give us an opportunity to talk about the things that we have done that we managed to be successful with. first some transparency tools and what we are doing. foremost, i use his reference as well. that the same report put together is what led to the capital plan and a lot of that report has been incorporated into the plan for the last couple of years and one of the founding documents that pushed supervisor's push to push the legislation to create a capital plan. we have a fiscal 10-year capital plan. we always state what we are funding and what we are not funding. we do track backlogs so we can tell you what the city's backlog is and how we are addressing it. the effects of the capital policy on that backlog. we have an annual proposed budget process. and when we get to the city planning committee we are very clear in what we are funding and what we are not funding. i should mention that along with some of the questions around the trees, the discretionary budget. the decisions that are made there have to be weighed against all the other needs across the city operating as well as infrastructure. we have a facilities resource renewal model something we implemented in the first year after the capital plan. when maintenance is not done in these facilities, it does show up on that model. basically it tracks all the systems and infrastructure. and we have the general obligation oversight committee and capital planning committee which is open to the public where we discuss these issues, we discuss the idea of using current replacement value. that's the forum where these discussions really take place. we are also developing, you know, a number of tools, one of them is a little bit more city asset management system that is called in for real estate and public works has really implemented this. this will be the primarily tools at the departments to track the levels and the replacement project which is going to allow us to better understand how staff time is spent and also to better allow us how to understand how capital projects are tracked and reported on. and then there is also a controllers audit we should mention that's going forward around facilities maintenance management. they have done some with the department and looking at the overall general fund program and overall city's program as well. there is a 5-year financial plan where we are tracking for the next 5 years not just the capital cost but the operating things. we are looking at it in a 5-year window going ahead. we are tracking that information. in the next slide, this is something we presented to the capital plan on a regular basis and talks about pay as you go program which is what we are really addressing. it talks about facility renewels as well as regular maintenance. i passed out a small handout that you may have there to give you more detailed definitions of these different items. but these are what's in our capital plans. these are the policies that we have. routine maintenance and some of you may recall that who were with the city at the time that general fund departments and other departments, when budget cuts came, they were reducing their routine maintenance. they didn't want to cut services, so they cut routine maintenance. these are typically things that would be covered in a regular operating budget, but because they were being cut, there is a request to put them in a central bucket so they would be preserved for maintenance. so while those are maintenance dollars, there is no in no way do we expect those to be the only maintenance dollars spent. i think some of the graph in the civil grand jury report suggest that that amount of money is all of it but there is other operating funds going towards maintenance. the next line there is ada facilities and work in the public right-of-way around accessibility. those have been required by various lawsuits and/or agreements, settlements. those are high priorities for us. so, we are required and we make sure that we do these and fully fund them. again, with ada, these are the amounts that we are doing for the complaint driven programs in response to the lopez and other lawsuits. we are also spending a lot of other money on ada improvements. street resurfacing moved over to the general fund program. we made
