same door into wellness center but you take different routes from that point and they are separated. we also have in all of these areas we have noise canceling facilities put into ceilings so there won't be any ability to hear voices outside of the office even if those voices are raised. >> will they be able to exit with some anonymity? >> there is probably a risk that someone might see you walk in and out of that door. there are two doors to the wellness center but there is one at the back of the building as well. but you still have to walk through wellness center to get there. i think it's not completely private, but it's much better than what it is today. >> okay. thank you very much. >> thank you. any other

public comment? seeing none. item no. 11. >> discussion item. update on financial reporting as of december 31, 2013. pamela levine. >> deputy director chief financial officer of service system. i too will make this very quick. we've gone through six 6 months of the year and we are projecting for the trust to have a 23 to increase our fund balance by $23.1 million. this is $4.5 million greater than what we reported in our last meeting. we have tied up all of our money and we are in a really good financial position based on the policies that you have approved today. right now the

$23 .1 million is comprised of $11.3 million in state plan net assets. $5.9 million in favorable claim experience in the blue shield flex plan. 5.3 increase in estimated favorable claims experiences in the dental plan. reduction of a million dollars in medical insurance premium revenues after the early retirement reassurance program is applied. the account for filing claims. we still don't have -- because our run out period has not ended, we still are not 100 percent sure how everything is going to end up working with it forward. we still feel like we are going to have this increase in

forfeitures..9 million in interest, point $3 million guaranteed paid by blue shield and $4 million general transfers to general fund. we started out with having a $77 million fund balance and together we'll end up, we think we'll end up around $100 million balance in the trust fund. we are looking at, if you look at, we have to reevaluate, but based on what we've been carrying in terms of obligation and reserves it was $28.6 million. it was $131 million. i need to update my

numbers to make sure there are no other things hanging there like in june. i don't think we are over funded. after funding everything that was talked about, you will have opportunities in terms of how we deal with the excess whether it pays back, or if you want to use it to subsidize. there is various options available. in the general fund we are looking at a savings of approximately $328 million. what does that mean? it means that we have not been able to fill positions in projecting $478,000 in savings. this is again still due to testing and approval process that really elongates

our ability for the time it takes to get approval to hire and hire. we are, the best thing offset by over expenditures in professional services estimated based by looking at the improvement project that tenant improvement projects, some things that are in our professional services and as we talked about the workers comp claims. the balance that we are projecting in the general fund are sitting down with the mayor's office in the next couple of weeks in the controllers office to start talking about how we can ensure that we can carry over some of that funding for things that are -- that we may not have in terms of getting new funding. so in other words, my goal is to do horse

trading. and this is the time that we have the ability, we have ask in. we have a source of money because we are under expending this year. we have to see how much they have projected that to use and we are going to start working on horse trading with this. so, although, we would like to not be in a position with the general fund balance, i fully anticipate we are a whole. any questions? >> it's sometimes best not to disclose your strategy, but thank you for the information. >> you don't have my full strategy. believe me. all departments do exactly what i'm talking about doing, but it all has to do with timing. >> thank you. >> thank you. any public

comment on this item? >> r ccsf, what i wanted to bring up was when we were also discussing the budget it's really engaging that rose felt nthal the controller has had meetings in the past with a number of us with regard to the financial situation at health service. i think he gained a bit of knowledge about that and i think it would be good to actively engage him and get him to better understand what we are dealing with. i'm stunned at the balance on our trust fund, but the fact that we are in a new age where we really, as long as we are doing flex funding and we are looking at things being self insured that we really need those assets and there is no question so the city shouldn't look at that kind of pot that we can

grasp hold of and we are saving millions at the other end and they seem to have a problem of remembering that when it comes to budget time. but whatever you can do to engage. i think rosen field would do a good thing and the mayor's not here to get involved. whatever you can do to support that position is what will benefit all of us here mostly. so thank you. >> thank you. any other public comment? seeing none. well, we move to item no. 16 since we already have the other. >> item 16. report on network plan if any. >> i spoke to our vendors.

there is no news. no news is good news. >> any public comment on this item okay. no public comment. item no. 17. >> discussion item, opportunity to place items on future agendas? >> it's not placing an item on the future agenda but i do want it noted that i will not be able to attend the next board meeting due to preplanned travel for a conference for my church. so i'm sure you guys are able to cover all that is planned on the agenda. >> we will have to have an appeal. the appeal will be continued on an item for that next time. so i'm sure we won't have any problems finding agenda items. any public comment? item no. 18.

>> item 18. discussion item opportunity for the public to comment on any matters on the boards jurisdiction? >> i want to bring up an example that some miles away from san francisco it has relevance to the city. the seattle seahawks won the super bowl and the players play him. there are too many bullies at the work site who act like the miami dolphins coach which resulted in a major scandal. unfortunately professional football is run like city government. we need a lot less bullying and people in administrative positions and people who behave like pete carroll. because if people like employees really need to be productive. this is a lesson for seattle and it certainly has bearing here. that's one reason why i

support the seahawks. forget the 49ers. >> dennis krueger, retired and active firefighters. i want to compliment commissioner or her overwhelming reelection. i'm very happy. congratulations and also the fact that the health board is now moving into new quarters. again, will not be connected in the same building with the same retirement system. wasn't that the ultimate goal that's been going on for years. i'm glad you got that out to facilities. i was wondering on that part. >> thank you for the question. i think we've always wanted

to be -- located with our retirees. that's a goal for us. we have heard that the retiree, the recommendation that the retirement system move into our same building has hit some snags and it is very important that the retiree community that's interested in seeing us get engaged in that conversation. i encourage that and i hope, keep my fingers cross and if they do move into the same building. there are a lot of retirees that we see on a daily basis who struggle to get to our office and have a hard time to get from our building to retirement. i really hope it happens. >>. that is the last of our items.

>> one thing i don't think we are clear after the closed session is the decision to not hold a vote about whether to disclose what was said. i just want to make sure that's clear for the record. >> we couldn't vote because we didn't have a quorum. >> yes, and also i believe everything that was discussed in closed session would be covered under the confidentiality provision of hippa so there wouldn't have been an ability to disclose even if you wanted to. i just wanted to make sure that was clear. the vote the moot due to that confidentiality issue. >> thank you. i also want to acknowledge our new attorney for this meeting. she is not eric rap port. lauren, thank you for being here today. that's it. if there is no objection, this meeting is adjourned. >> thank you. >> >> [ meeting is adjourned ]

closed. we have a motion for this item to be brought to the full board for recommendation. so moved. motion is passed. item no. 3. the clerk: item 3: appointment, developmental disabilities area board v] hearing to consider appointing one member, term ending december 31, 2016, to the developmental disabilities area board v. clerk of the boardd vacant seat 2, succeeding donna adkins, term expired, must have a demonstrated interest and leadership in human services, for the unexpired portion of a three-year term ending the clerk: sf 31234 >>supervisor norman yee: okay. ms. atkins will not be here but i understand there might be someone here to speak on her behalf. please come up and state your name. >> gabriel rog an. i'm here if you have any questions. >>supervisor norman yee: okay. any questions? >>supervisor david campos: just a quick question. what's the reason the applicant can't be here today. is there a

scheduling conflict? >> yes, she's working today. jooe #6 >>supervisor norman yee: is there a problem with her attending the meetings? >> no. she's a consistent attendee. >>supervisor norman yee: is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. can we have a motion to forward this to the full board. >>supervisor katy tang: i wanted to clarify this with the city attorney. >> you don't need a requirement for the seat. state law is one of the requirements that 60 percent of the members of the body, i think there are 10 appointed

members. 60 percent of those have to be consumers or relatives of consumers or i believe care takers. and so, that requirement doesn't follow any particular seat. right now san francisco has two seats. you are filling one of them today with a member of the general public that will fill in the 40 percent category. the next opening on this board we would recommend that you fill someone who fits the 5th category. >>supervisor norman yee: recommendation? >> so moved. >>supervisor norman yee: recommendation passes. so that brings us to item no. 4. the clerk: item 4: [appointments, workforce investment community advisory committee]

franciscans. i worked at community educational services for the mayor's education employment program for low income youth in san francisco. i currently work at coleman advocates and where they have a unique perspective on adult work force. i get to provide work force direct services and i get to advocate on a stronger policy or a more citywide level. i try to identify gaps in the neighborhood and try to see what we can do to support san franciscans. i know that my experience and current work more than qualifies me for the wic act and i appreciate your time and prepared to answer any questions you might have. >>supervisor norman yee: any questions? okay. i have a quick question. work force

investment for our board is many members on the board of supervisors is an important issue. what voice do you think you will be bringing to the table? >> you mean like in terms of population or? >>supervisor norman yee: you can answer anyway you like. >> okay, i think for me i worked in immigrant and low income families. that's kind of my background and both my own living experiences as well as the jobs that i have held in the past and i currently do hold. i think that in terms of disadvantaged individuals in san francisco, those would probably be the strongest areas that i know. >>supervisor norman yee: okay. thank you very much. >> thank you. >>supervisor norman yee: next applicant is james fountain.

>> my name is james fountain. i work with the employment youth services. i have been there for over 6 years now. prior to that i was at ll hutch and worked with people coming out of prisons. i have worked with the professionals and do a lot of national advocacy for what's happening and i want to get involved at the local level and i'm involved with the california workers association and work force development and moving on their education as well. >>supervisor norman yee: okay. any questions? seeing none, thank you. next applicant is winnie yu.

>> good afternoon, board of supervisors, thank you for the opportunity to speak before you and your consideration for the work force committee advisory committee. i have been working as a center manager for one of the neighborhood access points formally one stop career centers? san francisco since july 2010 and have seen thousands of visitors looking for work. our approach has been looking at the strengths of many of the job seekers to marketing skills to employers and looking for opportunities to do the right matching. so my voice that i would lend is my experience in operating a one stop center, now neighborhood access points in san francisco but also working with job seekers who really have skills gaps in their resumes and being able to work with them and market their skills and strengths to employers. there is a low unemployment rate according to the edd report, 4.6 percent.

however the remaining are the hardest to employee. we would need to really utilize strategies and skill building and training to ensure that they are not left out while the rest of the more higher skilled workers are now employed. i would appreciate the opportunity to serve again and utilize experience that i have experienced in the past with more innovative job seekers to come to the work force and ensure there is no gaps or opportunities lost to ensure all workers have an opportunity. thank you for your consideration. >>supervisor norman yee: thank you, supervisor campos? >>supervisor david campos: yes. thank you very much. just a quick question, we have more applicants that we have seats. i'm just wondering and i'm going to ask this of anyone seeking reappointment. can you tell us about your attendance to meetings. did you miss any meetings?

>> yes, i have attended most of the meetings other than the family emergencies and/or situations or if i was ill i was not able to attend. >>supervisor david campos: thank you. >>supervisor norman yee: next applicant is dion jay brookter. i believe you are speaking? okay. state your name. >> good afternoon supervisors, jamal walters. i'm here to speak on behalf of mr. dion jay brookter. he was out on a visit with the san francisco unified school district in clovis california. he's out there on assignment right now working of course for our children. but mr. brookter was appointed by this committee last year and is really

looking forward for the opportunity to serving the city and residents very well. he's been the deputy director for community developers over the years where we provide education services to one of san francisco's most disenfranchised population. mr. brookter is very innovative and has high level planning and education experience. he has a tremendous amount of work ethic and ready to work diligently and ready to provide some real thoughtful input to provide services to deal with the gaps in the work force system that we have here in san francisco. he's already involved in many high level conversations about bringing more seamless services to the work force services in san francisco and how to work to provide better opportunities

for disfranchised population. he's already been appointed and he would like the opportunity to complete a full term. you the. >>supervisor norman yee: thank you. supervisor campos. >>supervisor david campos: do you know what his attendance was. >> he did not have an opportunity to go to a meeting. he was appointed late. >>supervisor norman yee: i guess he had a lot of impact so far. is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. okay. my colleagues on the committee, we have four great candidates for three seats. any thoughts. supervisor tang? >>supervisor katy tang: yes, i after looking at some of the materials i would be interested in allowing applicants winnie yu and dion

jay brookter to continuing the term especially mr. brookter to fulfill a full term and i'm familiar with ms. yu's work in the community. i know we have three seats and four applicants. i at least want to move those two forward and would love to hear from the community members on the third applicant. >>supervisor norman yee: supervisor campos? >>supervisor david campos: thank you mr. chair and supervisor tang. i will support that motion. i think that it's good to have continuity and in the case of mr. brookter, he was just appointed. i think that we need to make sure that he has an opportunity to serve out a full term. i don't know, i think it's a really hard choice because i think that every one of the two remaining applicants is really strong and i was very
