and we have a net of 3.1 positions. in the office of immigrant foyers we have a translator which pursuant to the x this is a brand new position when you have a population over 10 thousand people that speaks a certain language should have a translator on staff. and then for fiscal year 2014 and 15 this is to staff the public safety building online in 2014. the customs - the major initiatives, you know, revitalizing community and

7:44 pm
7:45 pm
7:46 pm
safety prelims is part of that, too. our next slide is the jobs that are we think will come out of those. we think this will create jobs for the homeless and by developing community gardens and abating graffiti and maintaining streets. i should menace the program we hired thirty local people to jobs and to train and to mitigate community tensions by uncomfortable public safety in district 10. the mayor interim program we're going to pick up jobs.

7:49 pm
>> nope hold on supervisor bred. >> thank you for your presentation you and i have had discussions in the past. i really have some southerners and according to the proposed plan in the budget we're looking at increasing the arts funding by close to a million dollars. i have numbers that indicate a significant amount of the grant funding that comes from the grant to the arts it not being given to diverse contingency. they were providing grants and they receive a considerably los
7:50 pm
less amount than grand city arts and they support a lot of art organizations. i know you all are working on with the budget analyst on trying to come up with ways to deal with the second degree murder kits to your departments but i would like to have is a clear understanding of the diversity of the current frundz the grant city arts an established track record of a level of equity to make sure i'm seeing accurate information regarding how the grants for the arts program is actually aiding and abetting diversity in order to justify increasing their budget >> i think kari is here would
7:51 pm
you like to address that issue? >> and just for a prospective of numbers this is data there's data that's been distributed in the arts around and i've not been able to follow up to determine it's accuracy but it looks pretty accurate about 1.3 million of the 1.8 million entrants only 1.3 million has been described to organizations of color and, of course, there's certain concerns about literary arts not necessarily being
7:52 pm
funded and a few other discrepancies. >> we talked about the challenges to make sure the city is setting an example on how we're supporting, you know, various communities on a fair basis and i found the data a little bit disturbing and wanted to make sure there's some - i wanted to make sure you had an opportunity to respond to it but also more importantly provided the committee with the data so we can clearly understand you know what this actually means and is it accurate. >> thank you so much. and thank you supervisor and thank you. i know you've been in the arts community for a number of years and the cultural
7:53 pm
center the african-american complex has been the home of a number of organizations we fund. i would like you love to brief you on what we do and how we do it. we fund supervisors on a progressive basis with organizations that have smaller budgets receiving a larger percent of the funds. we're not uncomfortable of being up to 20 percent but the larger organizations is one percent of their budget. we also are tied if you know historically to the hotel tax so organization must be publicly available and tsz to the city. we've been in a situation we've
7:54 pm
dropped between 25 and thirty percent over the last 4 to 5 years because of the recession. we tried to make those cuts in overhead and administration. we've made the larger duts cuts to the larger recipients. we also work close with the cultural grant probably 50 to 60 percent possibly more depending upon the year a group will receive entrants for the arts. in other cases the cultural equity grants provided a ladder so if they were too young or too new or fragile to qualify for the grants sometimes they
7:55 pm
receive grants in a high percentage they receive funding in both. the inequal percent is because they serve - we've not had the funding to give them the money they deserve under our own gvlz so we've not been able to keep our pledges to our portions would take about $3.3 million to bring us up to our goals. and 8 percentage down to 1 percent. so suddenly a million dollars
7:56 pm
over the two years the gap gets larger. it will be concentrate in those small fragile organizations as well as our whole community. i believe that every arts organizations regardless of what community it's based in wants to serve the largest audience against the wide it possibly audience for the wide itself array in every discipline in every cultural >> thank you and i'm hope we could. i know again your come back to the board but we could have some more data. he i would - i'm happy to meet with you >> and now there's a penalty for grant folks who submit the
7:57 pm
paperwork late. >> what are the - >> initially we save the paperwork for the next year and hopefully, the grant will be on time and hopefully restored. you see the penalty is - >> it's not neo-necessary to spend the whole budget. >> generally, the amount is relatively small thank goodness by because it's one time money it will be spent on one time cost. recently that's been some of the things we've done to prepare organizations to go into properties. and also some activation of the
7:58 pm
markets that would perform in the arts and it's one time >> thank you for the work of having an i guess arts the cultural activity in the city. i know it's also the entrants commission and the other departments. i've been doing my best to do the finding from 7 years ago and i think that some key recommendations are better oversight to make sure there's better representation in the city. i'm just wondering if there's been a evaluation on how far we've come. >> we have not done that.
7:59 pm
8:00 pm
years ago i'm hoping we have concrete process we can show that the so-called flush budget year your budget is increasing and the grants are increasing so we can show the large arts organizations that receive 80 percent of the funding are really diversifying like we want. one thing has changed by the largest organizations now receive under thirty percent of our funding >> so if we could get some data on that or i know that the grants report listed a number of the
