percent of our salaries. similar to last year. pretty sure flat. a lot of our bureaus work hard to reduce overtime and we've been able to achieve this as needed employees or people who are ready to makeshift changes n to accommodate the need. and final slide addresses the economic disparities. stated earlier we use data a lot to make sure we're serve various part of the city all over the city equally. we work closely with many of the community based organizations to recruit for apprentices in our

department from chinatown down to the mission. we try to find the best candidates. we're in the neighborhood newspapers we do face to face communication. we work with merchant all over the city. and many of the meetings in the city we also try to make sure we have attention and we're there to update and give information on dp w. there's in many languages so people can understand the information like chinese and spanish and russian and any language that is needed.

we incorporate design into many of our landscape projects. we're out there making sure the plant material and selection or design elements meet the needs of the neighborhood. and 15 we continue to maintain and promote skills and trades to many of; isn't that so school districts. i believe that concludes the presentation >> thank you. colleagues any questions >> thank you mohammad for your presentation and the city really

precious it. i'm a little confused about the 40 million allocated fund in 2014 that's in slide 10. vs. capita renewals. as i'm looking on where you have our proposed sources and it has general fund gas tax sources 2008 through fiscal year 15. i don't see where there's 3 million for - i guess this is not exactly what's an increasing for the surfaceing but it's in the same category you have the general fined support. there's not the same support but - >> good afternoon. i'm with the public works

you pointed out this out. you're not siege the 40 million here >> but it says our gas tax for the next fiscal year will be 4 want. >> one gas tax we use for trees and street cleaning. that used to be the old sales tax but you're seeing the gas tax for the roads and what you're seeing on that slide with the gas tax for the operations. >> that's why i wanted to ask this in the first place. what would the separate gas tax

be? >> in fiscal fourteen we're expecting about $19 million in gas tax. >> in fiscal year i'm sorry. >> fourteen and 15. >> okay. that's - >> supervisor bred. >> thank you for your presentation. i wanted to ask a question about the apprentices e apprenticeship program. many of our young folks are working because of this amazing program but we talked about this the transition from being a part of the apprenticeship program and the actual job opportunities. and is there any plans within the next two fiscal years to try

and support more long-term permanent opportunities for the apprenticeship program in general >> thanks to the mayor's office for their leadership. they're able to give us some seed money. the apprentice programs were returning run in the past where we - the funding we're going to get we're going to explore some other types of apprenticeship. we're about to start our mason apprenticeship program and other apprenticeship programs in trees.

it's important we invest in those programs. in terms of when you finish the apprentices your moving into the journey man program. many of the apprentices are we getting other jobs in the mta. and some have gone to the airport and the contracting world. so we have a pipeline where we need to spend a lot of energy getting people out of the apprentices into other trades. we have a really good labor of apprentice program and gardening program. we have asphalt to help with the paving. anywhere we find opportunities we will, you know, we'll explore

and make sure we help people get jobs >> it would be helpful to get a clear understanding. i know you probably tracked this information but on an annual base how many people do have you in the apprenticeship program for people who have moved into a full-time job. i want to bring up the repaving of the sidewalks. i know that a number of the folks are painting out especially with the fact there are a significant number of trees and we pay attention when

there are weather i continue to work from moving in that direction. thank you >> thank you. i think your nickname mr. clean is an accurate one. i wanted to say that

accessibility. >> the first answer is yes, we have quite a bit of staff that works with contractors. we are receiving quite a few complaints. we're training our staff around house cleansing. we call it house cleaning. we inform them to be responsive

to the concerns of the community and keeping construction sites very clean traditionally the contractor comes in and they get two or three blocks we're asking them to have a less impact and work with the neighborhoods. we have been filtering quite a bit of complaints. we're stechd a little bit but at this time i know we're kind of mitigating those concerns as they come. colleagues any other questions at this time >> we agreed with the budget analyst recommendation where we

discharged is on the housing authority. the department of public works is supporting the housing authority on the clean up on weekends. there are 6 apprentices who are trained who work at the housing authority and a couple of employees that do regular clean up on the weekends. we strongly believe that will continue and we also believe that work is best done at dp w because they work like that all around the city. that's the policy type of discussion i think that we strongly believe it should stay at the dp w >> so why don't we go to mr. roses report. >> mr. chairman on page 66 on

our report is the recommended rescues is 41179 and out of that there are ongoing condiment savings. they still allow 7.7 percent and in the departments 13 and fourteen budget and fourteen, 15 the reductions are nine hundred and 29 thousand it would still allow an increase in the departments budget. the item in the department was just referring to say a policy recommendation again, it's not been concluded in the department recommendation. that's on page page 69. i'll briefly read it.

the san francisco housing authority recommended termination of a memorandum of understanding of h a for the labors apprentices program. the mayors proposed 2014 and 13 budget as a city cost our recommendation or suggestion to you is that the board of supervisors as a policy option could approve the city's funds in 13 and fourteen and transfer the program. the reason we made that remedies there would be a saving. and the same manner we made a recommendation 0 on the police department they were providing

some overtime work which we don't think is necessary. okay. thank you mr. rose. colleagues any questions i think there are a few ways we can either separate out or do the recommendations and save the policy recommendations for a later or we can act on both today. supervisor bred >> yes don't think we should act today. i do think that the city is going to need to take some level of responsibility to try to come up with the support necessary to maintain this program at the housing sites. and if there is a recommendation to reduce dw p budget we may

want to take into account the housing authority. there might be some more discussion. and okay unless there are any objections maybe we can obamacare act on mr. roses recommendationss. >> for clarity his other recommendations provided for a budget instruction in dp ws budget. >> and those are estimates. >> yes those are agreed to. i want to clarify to supervisor bred those are rementsdz bans straight budgetary agreements in contrast. we've done in every other

department this way >> i just wanted a little bit more clarity on the part for public housing since clearly there will be a loss for the program for the next year

. >> this is the only program in the city moving it over to the city doesn't have the structure to run the apprenticeship programs. they've got a lot of curriculum and there's certainty types of evaluations that are being documented, you know, so i would caution you moving it back over there to accomplishing all the credits and coccyx >> why don't we act on others issues then. that's correct it is a fiscal year >> so supervisor bred any other discussion can i have a motion?

>> we can do that without opposition. >> thank you very much. appreciate i being here >> at this time we'll move into the board of supervisors agenda. >> good afternoon members of the budget and finance committee the clerk of the board. deborah is loading the presentation. i am here today with hardworking staff to present the board of supervisors budget for 2014 and 15. those abilities reflect the board of supervisors budgets with just a haven of changes. the most meaningful way to address that is through the

legislation that is passed by the board of supervisors. this is why we have a core mission. we continual strive to update and improve the information available to the public. all our minutes are on and on online. each agenda includes accent and interpretation services. and additionally we publish in the local newspapers in the city. the budgets before you allow us to continue those mandates. so the major departmental initiative both of which reside in the appeal board. with the treasurer and the tax collector for people to receive

the taxes. we'll host meetings in the fall to assist the bagging backlog of appeals. the mayor has added one position to clerk those evenings and one for the appeal board. we have a assessment board tracking assessment system. we recently hired a new person and she is on targeted to allow the updating of the system and by winter we should have a system that will allow residents to pay for their applications on and on online. the departments excuse me.

the department itself has felon transitions. most recently we welcome new legislatures and new staff and a records manager mr. wilson. your staffing change that we bracket before you in february is to fund the youth commission that had previously been held vacant during the economic downturn. the director of the youth commission is here to brief the committee on the benefits to the committee. >> good afternoon. i'm with the youth empathies. our long term goal is to collect experience with this position

we've been able to strengthen our position and support the commissioners. we believe this is the way the commission s can bring the recommendations to the board of supervisors. since our staff has increased we can expand our relationship with san francisco's many youthful organizations. as you can see we've reached 26 unique activities since the position was filled. committee meetings include provider networks and resource fairs and both of our research has gone to workshops at city hall. this accounts for argue youth who are gaemg on admission

priorities. they're working to address the goals. our goal is to strengthen our ability to help people speak up about issues effecting them. and to insure that the youth commission has insight for local issues. thank you for your time. >> as the board knows we have filled the position on a temporary basis, however, the position is included in the budget proposal that is before you. and to the next slide it's the departments budget has been relatively flat dues to the cost saving measures. the most significant savings was

the new legislative position. the largest driver of notable revenue changes in our budget has been due to the assessment appeal board. as you know the number of assessment appeals has tripled. the puc agreeing gas station project. we incurred miles per hour and the revenue fund off-site committee. the revenue bond oversight. quickly we have two more slides. the proposed abilities 12.9 million respectively. this is a $500,000 expenditure

due from labor cost. it will continue to go up in 2013 and $10 million in 2015. the financial report and the work orders and materials and supplies and the backlog project. the next slide reviews the budget in february. the differences you see in this budget have 4 changes additional wages and the civil service changes in the spring. the controllers fringe benefit projection plaintiff's and from

risk management and the sftv. other than that the two bulges in 2014 and 15 remain the same. i would like to give a quick thank you to deborah and let the committee know we're in agreement with the budget recommendations. include in your packet are 2014 and 15 and the division type of which i'm pleased to answer any questions you have. ms. deborah and i are here thank you thank you for being here today. any comments or questions? >> okay. mr. rose do you want to go to your report. >> mr. chairman and members of the committee open page 73 for

13 and fourteen the reductions are ongoing savings. it would allow on a increase of 3.8 percent in the 13 and fourteen budget. all of which are ongoing savings and allowing at about increase of 2.57 percent in 2014 and 15 budget >> thank you, mr. rose we have an agreement. colleagues any questions? >> okay - what's that. >> can we have a motion to approve the motion. thank you for being here >> all right. >> as with all departments that are no, we have no dispute with you have no need to come back next week. we'll move along to the mayor's

office. please do. >> item number 12 remove certainty observations of the hotel tax and remove obsolete items. and this is regarding the quantifies of charities. >> good afternoon supervisors. kate howard. i'm here with the deputy demeanor of the mayor's office with housing and community development. and brian two from the community development and mo h cd. as you know the mayor's office representatives the city and

county of san francisco and insures are this is a place where people can thrive. i want to address the specific changes in the mayors administrative offers and turn the presentation over to my colleague to discuss more significant changes in the mayor's office. >> i want to show you this overview of the mayors budget. approximately tow percent of the mayors budget is in affordable housing. and then approximately fourteen percent in the mayors administrative offices. like public policy and finance. e
