she is a very astute secretary. not to say that mike is not good. i have known him for a long time. having said that, commissioners, we did have a meeting in the community. many things were discussed. i think that from time to time we must revisit such meetings with a few focused agenda items, which we can do, taking an entire series with too many things on the agenda, you do not do justice to the meeting. that is my subjective opinion. in future we can take one or two items. maybe one of the items could be held that facility that was caused mitigation. how can that best serve the

community? not the other entities where the community finds it difficult to receive the benefits. but it was nice to see you listening to the variety of comments, commissioners. hopefully we were not too rude. and if we were, i apologize. what happens is, normally, we do not visit the community regularly. people have a lot to say. in frustration you want to say something, but then you say another thing. that night the commissioners filter the best that was

offered and went to a better place. that is how i feel about it. of course, this is a very narrow window of opportunity for the bayview hunters point periods viper so, we need opportunities. the opportunities that i see four people are careers and jobs. not these so-called short term trainings where the people, in and bailout. commissioners, once again, thank you for coming to the facility and i am off to the board of supervisors. >> thank you for your comments. >> there are no other speaker cards. >> are there any other public comments? hearing no one, next item, please. >> commissioners have in there on the low at this time complete sets of all communications.

as i was on jury duty, i could not -- >> you are discharged. >> so, i put it in at this time to be absolutely certain that everything that was supposed to go to you got to you. >> questions or comments >> at the last meeting one of the things i pointed out was that the list was getting pretty long and i say that with consideration we have solved that problem by removing it. it was a solution but not the one that i had in mind. i think that it is useful to attract those. i went back and look at it. all of the commissioners had titles on that list. before >> hopefully it will show up with answers that the next meeting. >> great, thank you.

other questions or comments? >> yes. i wanted to provide the annual report from our stem cell agency. a state agency that operates and usually with a 6% operating cap on costs and 94% of the money goes directly to research. we are now in the process of human trials and are looking for some incredible developments to occur. i wanted to let you know what else i do during the day. please feel free to visit briefings down the road. we are more than happy to provide that. thank you. >> to follow up, you mentioned that this is reflective, making

it a public document. [unintelligible] >> thank you for the service on the board as well. and the other commission business? next item, please. >> the adoption of the resolution in support of the nomination of anthony boran, california water agencies. region 5. >> for the offer to take the nominee we would ask that they use their form and asked to adopt the resolution of supporting the commissioner, basically just saying that you support the commissioner being the bleach and five board member.

go on to item 8c. >> approving amendment no. 1 to power enterprise, community choice aggregation projects funded agreement on behalf of the san francisco public utilities commission in connection with the utility's program to authorize the general manager to execute these two amendments for a total agreement duration of four years. >> commissioner? o>> i will continue to the call of the chair. >> 8c? >> yes. >> we will continue this item. >> the next item is the

beginning of regular business. perhaps in the interest of having commissioner kane joined us, we can move to item 17 and 18. >> if there is no objection? we will take item 17 and 18, then moved to the regular agenda. >> item 17. discussant and possible action to authorize the general manager of san francisco public utilities commission to execute a first amendment to the memorandum of understanding by and between the san francisco public utilities commission and alameda county resource conservation district to continue the planning, design, and authorization under the california environmental quality act, extending the completion date by nine years to december 31, 2020, pursuant

to the charter 9.118. >> thank you. if you have any questions that you might have? it is otherwise useless in terms of the ongoing work with private landowners. as a consequence moving forward, we would like to continue that partnership. we thought we needed to have it implemented for a longer duration. so, that is the very short version and i would be very happy to answer questions. >> questions? comments? motions? any from the public on item number 17?

those in favor? opposed? thank you. fifth -- 18, please. >> discussion and possible action to authorize the general manager of the san francisco public utilities commission to execute on behalf of the city and county of san francisco on memorandum of understanding to form her when the upper alameda creek watershed partnership with the alameda county resource conservation district, california range land trust, nature conservancy and usda natural resources conservation service to coordinate watershed protection projects in the mount hamilton reign of the diablo range. it seems to me that it could be expanded to others in the watershed. namely the dirt -- namely that

it was important to formalize the partnership, normalizing fronts -- responsibilities for the landowners along with collective efforts to work together and not confuse individuals about what we were doing ho, moving forward with al of the work that we were doing. it has taken some time to get to where we are, but each individual project, if you will, that involved puc will come back to the commission for approval. we just completed literally the first acquisition in the watershed for conservation purposes. there is more coming, we hope. this is all in the efforts to project -- protect the watershed above the reservoirs for the

long term. we are happy to say that we are under way with at that project. close them literally last month for the duration. >> how much was that land acquisition? >> it does not go into dollar amounts. you cannot u.s. that question. doing the math tests, in this case it was a joy into a boat and other things we have already maintained. in many ways this helped us to resolve issues with private landowners. each one is a bit different. in one case where there is a watershed, likely the proposal will be for these partners to

play the lead role. the goal is not to own the watershed, it is to protected in the long term. this allows us to do that different ways and in different players. >> no one opposed. congratulations. when -- we will return to 1912 >> -- would turn to item number

aggravation program. >> barbara l.. do you view that they said should be heavy with mine let me fill you in on where we are at and where i think you are added but i will consume the tears as a program offering to san francisco. the emphasis was on having local control with a 51% renewable

there is the business model we have developed. the outstanding issues that we have to overcome in our negotiations and within the marketplace. starting first with schedule issues. we have to bring to you the contracts for approval. we expect to bring to you after next commission meeting the business terms, when the of which i am going to describe scsi have and that would not be ready fellow we need to make sure when the then we went forward with the in which
