homeland security and going through the process of both of us for the same time and he got that job first and so he decided to do that job and that is what he conveyed to the inspector during the april first hearing. when he was appointed. >> myself, and the previous liaison have tried to contact him and i have left him messages, and sent him e-mails but he never responded. so it is more of a housekeeping issue to just get him off of our roll because he is not particularly an assistant and he was just appointed but never sworn in. well, you know, when this first came up, i reminded everybody that in the federal system they are not allowed to have secondary employment and i think that it was virtually impossible for him to be a special and that is what he figured out. so any public comment regarding this? >> hearing none, do i have a motion? >> so moved and i just wanted to say thank you, and i
9:01 am
appreciate how hard you are working on organizizing the patrol specials and how often you have been coming to the commission and i appreciate the hard work. with that i move for us to, let's go back to the motion here and to terminate this assistant patrol special. >> second. >> all in favor >> aye. >> thank you very much. >> thank you for all of your hard work. >> and please call item 6. >> public comment, on all matters pertaining to item 8 below, closed session and including public comment on vote, whether to hold item 8 no closed session. >> a public comment regarding our closed session? litigations related matters and disciplinary related matters that are confidential and protected by the police officers bill of rights and the california supreme court? >> hearing none, public comment is closed. >> do i have a motion? >> i move that we go into closed session. >> second. >> all this favor, aye. >> thank you very much, ladies

thursday have free fun in the fillmore come to the comedy it's a weekly comedic police radios the show tarts the 8:30 and that's the weekly buzz for any information visit us at the self-govd and while our on good tuesday, february 4th, 2014, this is the special meeting of the building inspection commission. i would like to remind everyone to please turn off all electronic devices. the first item on the agenda is roll call. >> president mccarthy? >> here. >> mar. >> here. >> clinch? >> here. >> lee.
9:06 am
>> here. >> mccray. >> present. >> melgar. >> here. >> commissioner walker? >> here. >> we have a quorum and the next item is item two, discussion and possible action on the proposed budget of the department of building inspection for fiscal years 14, 15, and 15, 16. in order to pass, it will have to have a vote of five out of the seven. >> good morning, my name is gale and i am the acting chief financial officer for dbi and i made the presentation of the budget at the last meeting. i am happy to say that i have not made any changes to. and the only question that i have received between the two meetings was whether or not we had any funds available for promotional activities related to the 25th anniversary of the earthquake, we don't have
9:07 am
anything specifically for that event but we do have funds for promotional activities in the department as a whole. and we can definitely do something with the existing funds that are in the budget. but that is the only request that i have received in the last 2 weeks. i do except some minor changes to work orders and i thaneds one of the work orderses is going to go up a little bit and the hsa worker is going to be down and they all come out in the wash and minor charges over all and i have nothing else to present at this time. >> i think that this might be the quickest meeting, and i just wanted to obviously take you again and the one thing that and we did talk about this last week and more and more the expansion plans and the office, and i know that it is director has talked about a numerous occasions the key for me and
9:08 am
you have, and i forgot the dollar amount but i think that it is over a million dollars that you for to do the investigation and how to expand the space and all of that? >> and so in this current fiscal year we have $400,000 to do a facility master plan and so we have partnered with the department of public works and they have hired a consultant and they have looked at our existing staff and space and come back with a recommendation that we need more space and the question now is there is fine tuning that is going to happen with how many people do you think that bewill grow to the near term and how many conference rooms do we need and we are going to expand that analysis a little bit into, once we determine exactly how much space we need and what spaces or what are our options and that is going to happen this year with the money that is already budgeted. so if we decide that we need the current building is 66,000
9:09 am
square feet, if we decide that we need roughly 95,000 square feet, these are very ballpark numbers, then they will say okay, if you need 95,000 square feet you can add on to your building at this cost, you could move into a building in the civic center plaza which would be about this cost or we can build a new building and it would be about this cost so next year i suspect that they will finish all of that type of analysis and we will be moving forward with whatever option and the consultation with us and the mayor's office and there are a lot of people that will be involved so we will take the next step next year and starting over towards whatever resolution seems best, so all parties involved. so what we did since we don't really have an idea of what that resolution is going to be, at this time, we put a half a million in next year's budget for general planning for whatever it is that we decide that we want to do and then we know whatever that is going to cost money.
9:10 am
and so we put in another million in the following year, a million and a half between the two years. as you guys know, that we have to and you have to approve the budget today, hopefully and, then it goes to the mayor's office at the end of february and the mayor does not actually present the budget to the board until june first and some time between now and june first if they have a better idea they may change those numbers and may say we have this perfect building at the corner of market and van ness and give the exact amount of space for x, money and then we might change what is in the proposal that the mayor will put forward to the board, but we don't really know, so the money in the budget is a place holder. >> commissioner walker, so they will do that without us approving it or having any say about it? >> i will expect to come back to you guys to have a say. >> that would be good. >> yes. and my understanding is that you guys need to have a say, the mayor's office, well obviously will have a say and so will the capitol planning committee and we have been
9:11 am
clear that all players need to have a say before we spend what is likely to be a significant amount of money. >> great. >> is there a time line when the mayor has to get back to us about any changes, for example, if they get the budget in february, do they have to come back to us before by april or march. >> they don't have to come back to this body at all and so they can make changes all the way up to the week before they present the budget in june. and they generally do that in consultation with me and the director. but, it does not necessarily come back to this body. and any large changes we will communicate back to the body but we may not know when they are and may happen at the last minute. >> but we do as a commission have an opportunity to go to the budget hearings and voice our concerns. >> you always have that opportunity. >> i guess that the big thing and what i am hearing is, even if we were to hire more people, now, which we look like we are going to be constantly building here, we don't have anywhere to
9:12 am
put these people, it is not a hiring problem that we have right now, the bigger problem is a space problem. >> that is true. we could add a few more people into the existing space, but we could not add a significant number of people to the existing space. the other part of the discussion that we have been having recently with the department of real estate and the mayor's office is could we do a satellite office? is there another office in the close vicinity to dbi that we could rent for more space? and that is still in discussion and one option that was given to us was too far away and so they are looking for an option that is a little closer as a possibility for hiring more staff. >> all right. okay. i think that will be our big challenge, when we first, twoiers ago we were trying to get on it three years ago trying to get back on a mode of hiring people now we are catching up now and the next problem is to keep that flow of nutrition, and of good people coming aboard over the years, where are we going to put them.
9:13 am
i think that this should be a big focus on that. so, but otherwise, congratulations, well done. >> thank you. >> and hopefully they will not give you too hard of a time at the supervisors, and the budget committee may i say. >> is there any more questions? i see none, and it looks like we can call the motion. >> okay. >> is there public comment on this item? >> seeing none, is there a motion? >> i move to approve the budget. >> i second. >> a motion, and a second. so the roll call vote. president mccarthy? >> yes. >> vice president mar? >> yes. >> commissioner clinch? >> yes. >> commissioner lee. >> yes. >> commissioner mccray. >> yes. >> commissioner melgar. >> yes. >> commissioner walker? >> yes. >> the budget is approved and passes unanimously. >> and as a reminder, our next regular meeting is on february
