7:14 pm
road of arresting or by a. tourist coming to san francisco that the kind of art has never been shown in any substantial manner by it's really important in educational value. and on this note i want though emphasis that asian museum first and for most is a platform of education whether for kindergarten or adults. so i mention the educational program will have a significant increase year after year. so the next slide i'll talk about the public active where folks have free assess. we provided free access to the
7:15 pm
public library system and others agencies. and in this particular we're working closely with the summer youth programs to provide kids not only experience about art but to work in the art museum but to offer volunteer programs, of course. so the next few slides are about the budget and i want to have our colleague share with you more details >> good morning supervisors. oh, you switched it for me. i'm mark the cf o at the museum i want to cover some of the questions. so what you have in front of the you say a slide that represents our city revenue. you can look and see the
7:16 pm
increase year over year. the prim increase in the general fund is really a salary and benefit increase. you can see that the general funds represents 75 percent of the maintenance and facilities areas. it's growing slightly and the museum is now 12 years old in terms of it being an operating facility. so we're going to see a little bit of a need to maintain the grounds. and again on the fiscal year 15 our security system and closed circuit tv system, of course, we have 24 hours security and we're
7:17 pm
working with the cite committee and the to replace the critical system. moving on a graphic of how the city funds are spent. roughly 75 percent of it is labor and 60 periods of time goes to pay for our security team a security staff of 36 officers and supervisors. and the balance the non labor goes to pay for insurance and utilities. moving on. again, as jay talked about in terms of governance we have a whole operation of funding this represents roughly a thirty to 40 percent of funds for foundation making up the
7:18 pm
balance. i'm not going to spend a lot of that time here but the attendance over the three to four year cycle which varies significantly upon the "x" ambitions. but to see the foundation overall has a balanced budget of the city contributing about $13.4 million to cover the operations of the museum. in terms of employment roughly a one hundred and a 50 ftes which does not take into account the temporary folks who help us with the augmentation of the work. i know you're interested in
7:19 pm
