the budget chair on the board of supervisors. as mayor lee mentioned we're doing those hall meetings one on the internet and it's important to hear your concerns and your priorities in the communities. from my prospectiveful from the committee one i'll have an open and transparent process we have committee meetings every week. number 2 we're going to manage our finances in a responsible manner. we're rover asia a city but we want to prepare for our kids as well as and we want to make sure that our budgets reflects the

prospectives of every citizen in our city. i'll talk about this later. thank you all for coming tonight. >> we have one last person who would like to speak with us the fire chief. >> hi everyone good evening. john an fire chief i'm concerned about the number of the people in the room. and it's all about safety i encourage you to sit in the seat and technically, if you don't have a seat i'm told we have an overflow room.

i hear that's getting crowded too. i'm a mom of 3 kids and i love kids and this is making we concerned this is one of the concerns the exit is blocked. if we could get some people to help and getty people to go into the offer flow room it, it's not safe right now. we want to hear from everyone and we'll work with the library but i'm conflicted right now. so thank you. >> so there are some enterprise seats we've got 4 in this little circle. raise your hand if there's an

empty seat next to you or come on down. >> so i'm now told that the

overflow room is pretty sure reaching capacity. the mayor say if you are an city employee and not representing a department head please step out of the room we'll work with everyone but we're a little bit overcrowded. >> so welcome everyone again thank you for coming to spend your monday with us in this way. i'm the director of programs with the united players we're a leadership in san francisco. i'm born and raised in san francisco. i want to say appreciate you that everyone came out today. everyone is not going to be able

to speak but when you come in fill out a comment card and some of them will be randomly selected. and the cards will be shared with the supervisors so your voice will be heard. to get started i'm going to give it to kate howard to educate us. >> hi ink i'm kate howard the mayors budget director. i want to let you know that supervisor kim is stuck in the land use committee oh, she's done she's coming over here. so i thought i would share with you san francisco's budget.

and really a budget is a plan. it's a plan for how we're going to spend all the money that comes into the city. it's also a law that the board of supervisors has to adopt every year and it's the official authority to spend the money. so i thought i would do a quick overview. as you know that san francisco say combined city and county. and it's about $7.4 million every year. we have to balance that budget for two years. we're trying to budget the 13, 14 and 15, 16. the majority of our spending is

on transportation and that compromises a lot of our department and we spend things like the airport or the ports were we spend about fourteen percent on public protection like police and fire and 20 percent on public health. sometimes, people asked me where do we get our money and it's from all of you the taxpayers provided the resources. but more specifically we get about in the general fund which is about 3 and a half billion dollars from property taxed and from business taxes we have the

sales tax and hotel room tax. about one out $5 comes from the state or federal government. we pay all those taxes when the state government or federal government makes a change it effects us. over the last few years we've taken some good steps to make our budget more sustainable and we have a 5 year outcome. and what i can see here is that over the next 5 years so the the light gray line on the right-hand side that's showing you what our expenditure

productions are looking like and the dark gray line on the left is the revenues. so assembly over the next 5 years our expenditures are going to grow. the economy is starting to recover but there's still is a gap between running the city's government and how much money we're going to take in. finally i just wanted to share with you some of the information we have. as i mention balancing the budget is understanding the resources that are available and then thinking about how those reservoirs bit i fit together with the city's priority that's what we want i to talk about. but what's kind of interesting

is the 311. 5 and 6 districts the most interesting issues are street cleaning and graffiti. if those are concerns we want to hear about them and other things. i also want to mention who you have up here listening today but if we from the far left we have the juvenile division and the department of children maybe the whole back row. office of the economical department of emergency management. the department of building inspection, public works, the

school district and our city librarian and host. i feel like a choir director we have the aging and adult services and child services the health department the adult probation department the control and the mayors housing department. and finally we have recreation and park our supervisors and the police department you've already seen the fire chief. i also wanted to introduce the workforce development and the office of - that's everybody so without any further adieu let's

hear from you >> thank you, my apologys for being late. i'm so proud we had such a great turnout i was horrified that so many people had to leave but we're engaged in making the community where we want to live. i get a few minutes to speak i'm going to give you you a few minutes of my time you can come

to talk to me anytime i want to thank my staff but this time is for you thank you for being here. >> thank you, thank you for that important information and thank you for the introduction apparently i just want to remind everyone please turn in a comment card and there's folks around the edge who will collect them. and that's transaction they're in the lobby and so we really want to thank them for that >> we will now hear from some folks and some short presentations and we'll open it up to the public comment. there's so many people in the

room but we won't be able to hear from everyone we'll be drawing cards ran democratically but the cards that are not heard will be sent to our representatives so i'll still have a voice. (calling names) >> hello okay. all right. now we're cooking with gas. hi everyone i actually have two

jobs today at the request of the supervisor i'm here to talk about homeless aligns the other place i work. homeless e homeless young u youth support provides substance abuse substances and basic services that people need to survive like showers and bathrooms. i'm here to talk about reductions that are proposed by your department of public health. so i want to talk about who the homeless people in the hate are and who we see there. the average angle of one of the youths that leave home is 13

years old. and now are homeless living on the street. we see in districts 5 when we look at the cuts we see cuts proposed to substance bases treatment and supportive housing. services that effect homeless and formerly homeless people because their services that help to keep people off the street and to keep people hoisz. we want to also is a that for the people who are homeless in our districts homeless youth in the hate oftentimes they don't fit into traditional types of mental programs they may fail in

the programs so we need services that are specifically a tailored. we're going to see more psych and emergency requests so cutting the money in the long run we're going to see more suffering. >> thank you colleen. next we'll hear from sheryl davis >> i'm grateful and the western districts 5 has present a joint advocacy program strrtd around youth and public housing we

would like the city and departments work together in the same way that the city and county works together. in 2011 and in my opinion some of the needs that were identified weren't respected or considered during the finding. i want to say that when we go through this and talk about the area of the children and youth leaving when i say that and talk about the rfps 94115 has the maureen and pacific heights how do you know where the need is? and the community serves

hundreds of youth and students if they're not being funded we have true concerns where we've been work with the police department and the school districts and trying to a identify needs and issues. the american pedestrian - most of the programs that got cut have effected the youth. students that are attending scored significantly he lower and the district - there are tons of status that talk about 94115 that weren't considered.

>> i'd like to let the folks know that they've set up a tv and get a good seat outside. next is the youth director nor districts 5 christopher winning >> good evening supervisors city members thank you for holly this and coming out on behalf of the community. and advisory border to the mayor of the issues in san francisco and i'm the outreach officer. i grew up in this area and participated in districts 6 and walking through the neighborhood

i've become desensitiveed. however, i've been fortunately enough to participate and be raised by those varies youth programs in my community. being in those programs and becoming the youth leader i was able to see my piers grow and learn out of these choojz and the barriers they face and graduating high school when everyone told them they couldn't. and districts 6 is a highly district and we have a limited amount of resources but those resources are so essential in

our community from latino to english language learners to african-american any type of youth we rely on those youth serving program in districts 6 so when i went out into my community it was unanimous that most youth folks do want to work together whether it's summer school or employment or - okay my time is running out. youth are our priority and as a community we want to work together so let's do this. (clapping) >> thank you christen.

we've seen the loss of our shelter beds. with you, what can on our beds and see the million dollars dollars that the department of public health has absorbed over the past 5 years we have 25 million cuts by the time offully 15. additional reductions will mean more decreased public safety more lost lives and more cuts to all san franciscans. we find again and again, it's less extensive to have homes for homeless then have them on the street. we need tax dollars thank you
