same platform of her friends and families. her work combines elements of chicano portraiture and low writer art, rendered in upon new art style, or intricate drawings on handkerchiefs, also -- often associated with prison art. her portrait of three girls is among several of original posters by the exhibition artists, which are on view at various bart stations as part of a public campaign funded by the national endowment of the arts. from the outset, the curator felt it was important for the exhibition to have a public art components of the work could reach the widest possible audience. more than just a promotion, the posters connect the work of these powerful artists with new audiences, including the vital chicano and latino community. images can be found in bart stations located in san for cisco and oakland. >> it is enormously exciting for me personally and for the

institution. the poster with up right after new year's, and i remember very vividly -- i am a regular rider, and i went into the station and saw the first poster i had seen, it was incredibly exciting. it is satisfying to know that through the campaign, we are reaching a broader audience. >> for more information about

[gavel] supervisor chu: i am supervisor chn -- chu and this is the budget and finance meeting. would you please update us? we have a short agenda. thank you very much. this item is a hearing on the ongoing budget update. we will get to item number two very shortly. so quickly, for the update on

the ongoing budget, is there any new news specifically with regard to the federer budget or the state budget. >> the mayor's budget director. i will be brief. we will have some more soon in the relatively near future. the governor may revise these on the 16th of may. they will look closing the remainder of the deficit and the plans for the november ballot or special election. additional cut proposals. my guess is that we will start hearing ideas trickle out about what we are going to see within

the next week or so, but we will actually see it in mid may. probably the working assumption by the time we have just met the mayor's budget on june 1, there will not be much certainty given that he is going to have to make a proposal on legislature over the summer, so we will have to make some assumptions about what we will assume and what we do not assume. other items that are coming up, we are in the process of working on the nine month report with the comptroller's office. that is the state of the revenues, and we will update them.

for the last couple of months, we have been expecting to get a little bit of good news in the report. lastly, we will have our five- year financial plan next week drafted, so at least we can begin discussing the things that this committee. supervisor chu: thank you. supervisor mirkarimi? supervisor mirkarimi: we're talking about a special election? >> i think it is not clear about

what the plans will be. the original date was to quality june special election, and that we're looking at between june and november, but i do not think we have something special on the table. they love an update of what their own revenue looks like at the state. kabbalah those factors are

likely to play in with their decision making. -- all of those factors. for the proposed measures to pass on. your guess is as good as mine. supervisor mirkarimi: opt -- others would be? >> for the across, the costs of just organizing the election, -- for the other costs. the last state action was taken

and it was changed after the date of the election. supervisor chu: thank you, supervisor mirkarimi. why do we not go to public comment on this section? " >> ♪ you are the budget sunshine of my life i love you, and i need a million more bring it back, woa, woa, woa, we would like the budget back again. bring it back again ♪

supervisor chu: any other public comment? public comment is closed. camera continues with the objection? item number 2 below. >> for fiscal year 2007, two dozen 12. -- 2012. >> -- supervisor mar: this is a good way to get people familiar with the issues with the sheriff's department, so with that, they keep. >> but to be here from a supervisor -- nice to be here,

supervisor. we can use your overhead. if you look at the far right hand, what it shows in a long bolt column, our expenses have been $154 million. the budget submitted to the mayor so far is about $10 million less than what we intend to spend this year, so our budget proposal for the coming year is, in the words, as i said, about $10 million. we hope to spend about 10 dozen dollars -- $10,000 less this year.

a different charge, you can essentially see where a money goes. a large section is our custody division in the county jails. the second largest, court security. a lot goes into what we call city services, including the entryway to the building. field and support services are services that provide evictions and help the police department for new been -- for halloween or for other events, such as when we win the super bowl, and a

small amount goes into our programs, mandated training. and though there is a concern about the jail population. supervisor chu: there is a question. supervisor kim: what is port security then? >> the security includes the hospitals and the community health clinics.

i misspoke. supervisor kim: and then programs? >> they are basically rehabilitation programs, everything from drug treatment to buy its programs, women services, and the like. supervisor kim: thank you. >> answer is the largest part of our budget and staffing is dedicated to a county jails, we did provide a chart which shows some historical data from january of 2007. this was from october 2012. as you can see in the past,

since a january of this year, our population has taken a dramatic downward turn. one of these has been closed all year. one of our budget goals is to keep the facility closed as a way of saving money, but we also have vacancies in the of the jails because of the jail population. why is our geo population declining? i can really give you a good answer. the geo population, to a large degree, is based on police activity, and they do not always know what the police are up to, where their priorities are, where their priorities have changed. when chief gascon came in, it

shot up by about 400 people. i do not know what his priorities will be with the direction he will be receiving, but typically after a new chief of police comes in, our population does tend to go up. that is mainly a historical operation. on the far right hand of that chart, there is a red line. it may not appear red. this is a projection based on the governor's realignment proposals, and this has been discussed by this committee, but most dramatically, the

governor's realignment proposal, which has been signed into law, what it would dictate is that people resentenced -- who are sentenced to state prison for nonviolent, nonsexual, and non serious as defined will not go to state prison. they will go to local county jails. we are transferring people for the crimes that would remain in san francisco. some people who are charged with

essentially drug offenses to be served up to a seven-year term, and it is not clear if someone would get at seven-year jail term the maximum amount of time was one year. so we are going to start to save prisoners who are serving longer terms and that aggregate's. as state prisoners start serving their time in the county jails, this one at a factor to the population will cause the population to build. now the governor has committed

in writing, and i have what he has signed. he does not plan to pay $1 on the dollar, but he does nothing to pay this for a 360 day year. our cries -- prices are about twice that. supervisor chu: currently, you think the reimbursement would be about $25,000 per year? >> the full year, yes. supervisor chu: and our costs are about $40,000? >> $48,000. supervisor chu: you had

mentioned for the non-violent, non serious crimes. do you happen to know if there is an average lead the time -- lead in time? >> i have not done that yet. typically, people are serving more than that on average. supervisor chu: thank you. supervisor mirkarimi. supervisor mirkarimi: is this anticipated in the anticipated budget about what it would beif ab 109 takes effect, and we will

have to cover the unreimbursed portion? >> yes, i am glad you asked that question. there are some calculations based on the assumptions, and there is a graph or a box chart the we think it shows you what will be in the next is clear. $2.60 million. it is always cheaper to have them in jail alternatives these require monitoring and home detention, because that is also relatively cheap.

and our proposal would be to increase this by $3.60 million. this is like a wish list. however, for example, judges could say, "no jail alternative ." caught if those things were going to be reduced, and we do have, i would say, a very good working relationship with the courts on the programs that we have. we also love and service unit that goes out and apprehends people i think we will be able

to work with the court's -- courts. supervisor mirkarimi: but there is a combination that would take this problem back over. >> yes, i did those numbers add up yes, we will be back where we were this current year. supervisor mirkarimi: debut. >> you are welcome. supervisor mirkarimi: i am finished. supervisor chu: where you are

talking about next year as opposed to the following year, it looks like you are going from year to year, in your covering more. it looks as if it is at a cost of $7.50 million going down to less than 200,000. >> this is my department's ceo. >> good afternoon, supervisors.

the capital programs have not been fully approved. this is why this number is down. >> -- supervisor chu: so that is not finalized. >> no. >> -- currently, we are there. supervisor chu: is there something like a hybrid? >> we are providing all of the security. supervisor chu: just the

average age. this may be a question for the mayor's office on this. i am wondering if this trend is representative in the dollars. >> this trend is not reflected on the supplemental melhuse. -- values. it is to correct the budget for a current fiscal year, so that is required to operate, status quo operations, and the

adjustments will be felt next year. supervisor chu: there is a downward trend, it looks like, from april through june of this year. is that correct? >> supervisor, maybe a share to speak with it. we have budgeted. there was a decline in the population that started about this time last year, we budgeted

a significant amount of savings and probably a little bit too much savings we took it out of their budget last year. and we have been able to keep the geo closed, so there is a slightly different level. this is over and above that level. we're at that number compared to history. >> maybe i am just asking it the wrong way, it looks like the

population trend is trading down, so i wanted to make sure about. >> that is my understanding. supervisor chiu: -- chu: how are we want to be capturing what we think the changes will be because if we anticipate we're going to have an additional $9 million, and we probably would be getting maybe the best of 50% of the reimbursements back, how are we treating that? >> that is a great question, one

that i have been spending a lot of time on, there are a lot of moving parts that take policy decisions the public defender, the health department, the whole system of departments that will feel an impact from the realignment changes to figure out what these are, and we will have to make an assumption about the possibility is going to be at the jail. we're working very closely with the sheriff's department, and we need to resolve this in the next need to resolve this in the next essential two we
