lead by mravp and building inspection and including our fire department our housing units all the different agencies and including the offices of sgblt & anothers it's not easy even if i head up this bureaucracy ask any ceo of any great place and you're asking me to do it here i've got to get in done internally i know it rings true inform supervisor breed. get on the same map and same promising program and same pass so planning and dbi i want to recognize angus for being the person in charge he is making

sure that bill strong is working with us we take advantage of this goal and let's reorganize the tools within our sfog to work n in the same fashion. i have a responded positively by immediately suggesting short-range and admitted and long-range to do. today i've rewarded them by adapting they're short range recommendations i'll highlight one. is to say anything in the pipeline that has any affordable housing attached to it gets attention immediately. it's hard to do without the leadership the city agencies coming do i dough but we're phone number for two reasons one to reflect the implementation of

the policy we are going to throw mr. brown and dbi and a public works we are going to lift those are projects up and give them priority attention and the second reason is to suggest that the developers of those projects should hear about immediately. because what it does is have a very dedicated reinclusion monk the developer community in the city. that if you have ava's part of our development you're going to get go attention. it used to be kinally if you had money you'd get attention but if you have housing particle affordable housing you're going to get the same kind of attention.

so it's to reversible within the developer community and this is important incentive advised them to put housing on the sites or in the private investment to is your developments will get high priorities in the city. another highlighted part is to have concurrent reviews so our staffs start juggling things i'm not looking yours because you're not in the cue in the right order those housing projects get immediate review. that's important that's how important this development is. i will suggest as part of this is that when we said thirty thousand units that's always rehabilitating unit we don't

want to lose 10 thousand unit so we're pay attention to the current housing stock that's why mrs. wolf i've had the good fortune to work with she and others have pushed forward another policy reflective in those instructions that development and developers who want to bring forward units that might not have been legal in the past will get priority treatment and as we look at each development we at one point make sure that the developers are not decreasing the number of units in the development process so to give a good you holistic look at all developments to make sure we prevent the housing stock and allow the developers to legal

lists and a make more legal those units that might have been in the studios and not permit developers to suggest oh, because i have tenants in unit that might not have been legal we can get rid of them we're saying the oppose to preserve the housing stock we're not going to getting let you decrease the housing stock in the city. those are some of the major highlights i'm embarrassing and all the head agencies from dbi to disability to the rent board to the fire department to all agencies even the board of appeals they're here we're working together to get this done and the right way. i wanted to bring to your attention and by the way, it's raining so 13450i8 it's a great

day i'm smiling when it rains and it's the year of the horse and we've got housing and i know i'm going to meet a tenant some place who's family is here in the city and works in the nonprofits and who has a member of the family that's part of the artist it iic community this is san francisco's families we want to help stay here and grow here they've got a small child and will be one of the first ones to move in i love hand to hand out keys this is what supervisor breed and i love to do for people who want to stay here and grow their families and be here open market street that. brian you've done a wonderful job this is a site you've

controlled. if you saw what was happening at the site being an old restaurants and being unutilized having families who are here to pay below market rent half one bedroom and 20/20 bedroom we've wified up for everybody i'm simon smiling we need more acquisition states i sites i know that our staff is talking about every site we can get control of get developers to help us build for nooshl affordable units 23 below market units on this site in the heart of market street.

not a domino of city funds. which went into this it's all privately paid for as part of the housing going that brian can tell you about he was building market rate condominiums not part of castro but are happy to do it this can be the example of the kind of example and relationships we want to for this with our development community yes, in the future we'll have more of those how to work with developers like brian who wants to do more in our city this is heartfelt for 23 families but it will be a symbol we need 23 more projects immediately. i'm happy to be here and to thank our different divisions

and departments working with us and brian has a attempting team and to suggest that he and other developers come in and i've got thirty thousand units to build in the next 6 years and we're excited to do that. maybe we can take a few questions on this >> almost thirty thousand units how realistic is that and how (inaudible) prioritizing how quick can you bring those in. >> we know things and britain will tell you their history of working with the city and a

planning department what moves things and not bureaucracies didn't move things. and 1rir789 review processes could be toilgd up. our agencies working together could do con current reviews building won't look at this until planning department don't and fire the last everyone can work concurrently to accelerate all those projects why do you handicap offices that cause one and a half years of review as opposed to 6 months of review. thoses are things that are practical the community is going to praise us and our bureaucracies didn't respond very well until he felt the need to put this on the fast

accelerated agenda. yes, sir. it's grave but we've got to do it for the people who are waiting to 0 move into those places their atkins at the door can we shorn e shorten that line by neurology our efficiencies. i think we can do that. this year open market street alone 5 thousand 5 hundred units 6 housing will be opened up for homeownerships. with that backdrop we can do it with many more projects we need to see hunters point sledder we can do this we're all on the same package and if not supervisor breed is going to make sure shows got a large

voice. other questions? >> are you going to adhere new staff to make sure that the projects are going to go faster? >> you know i think we were rode particularly for planning they were rode with additional staff because the whole market the development was increasing in the city so i don't know if there's necessarily increased staff just for the housing i think it's efficiencies because they have budget instructions that don't allow them to increase their budget so it's all about efficiencies it's not about asking for more staff but what processes that are barriers to efficiencies. they've gotten more staff i

think they're telling me see other people told me they weren't the problem and we got people together and they were looking at each other as the problem so the response we have today and the ideas is not about the additional funding. by the way, the developer community has told me they're willing to pay if they get efficiencies out of this time is money for them and we're saying housing and time is money and therefore if there is a suggestion that we can accelerate with more staff i've got at that developer community that i've suggested that they would pay for. but this is not rnlthd in the recommendations we have today so all the idea we're getting by accelerating and concurrent

things it's strictly bureaucracy >> (inaudible). >> well, certainly for housing developments this includes public housing yes. we've had to think through and plan for the financing of what we call the public housing portfolio and olsen can give you american people update because we've got incomes from hud that allows us to put money in areas and a good chunk of that has going towards repairing elevators and other things that effect people with sgablts and seniors. >> happy new year of the horses

we are going to go up here and thank

welcome to our rules committee meeting for thursday, february 20, 2014. i am supervisor norman yee and i will be chairing this meeting. i'm joined by supervisor campos and katie tang. the committee would like to acknowledge the staff of sfgtv jennifer low and ross. who record the

meetings and make the transcripts available online. madam clerk, are there any announcements. >> please submit speaker cards to the clerk. items will be on the march agenda unless otherwise stated. >> >>supervisor norman yee: madam clerk please call item no. 1. city clerk: item 1: 130401: health code - hazardous materials]1304011.ordinance amending the health code to require electronic applications for registration of hazardous materials and for underground storage tanks be filed through the california environmental reporting system, to eliminate the requirement that registration of hazardous materials plans include a program for reduction of hazardous materials, and to provide for fee adjustment; and making environmental findings. city clerk: sf 11234 >>supervisor norman yee: i believe cindy from the department of public health is here to present. >> good afternoon supervisors, my name is cindy, i manage planning and fiscal policy in the environmental health branch. i'm here with paula,

our senior staff at our hazardous material and waste program. it's part of the environmental health branch of the san francisco department of public health. the program implements six state environmental mandates and two local mandates. there are three amendments being proposed to article 21 of the health code. the first so conform to state law 25404 of the health and safety code. they require all facilities to present certification through the california environmental reporting system also known as sers. the regulated committee will be able to enter data.

state legislation was at ab 2236. environmental health staff has provided technical support on our reporting system and now it's easy to update their existing information and provide a paperless one stop shop for multi-businesses. the 2nd amendment eliminates the hazardous material plan for the use of hazardous materials and generation of hazardous waste. this is again conforming to local legislation state law. this was enacted in the early 1980s when hazardous materials were more abundant. most facilities are reduced their hazardous storage to low levels. we have a health prevention and green business program and we now

accomplish reduction through working with our businesses and consultation instead of regulatory action. businesses are still required to provide health waste reduction plan. a 3rd amendment is a fee adjustment. if the fees in the facilities invoiced from the department don't accurately reflect the facilities current activities, the facility may now address a fee adjustment for them with correct information with the fee payment. the businesses may have reduced or inventory since their last renewal and inspection may not be conducted in this time period. the fee adjustment form allows for a mechanism to adjust their fees accordingly. i'm happy to answer any additional questions to the amendment and legislation. >>supervisor norman yee: thank you very much. colleagues, any questions? no questions. thank you. any public comments

on this matter? seeing none public comment is now closed. can we have a motion to move this to the full board. no objection. item passes. item no. 2. city clerk: item 2: 130710: [terms of and expansion of scope - existing local agency formation commission positions]1307102.sponsors: avalos; campos and marresolution amending the terms of the existing local agency formation commission lafcoo positions by expanding the scope of services for the senior program officer; extending the term of employment additional three years through june 30, 2016; and utilizing the existing lafco budget to continue funding this position. city clerk: item 2: 130710: [terms of and expansion of scope - existing local agency formation commission positions]1307102.sponsors: avalos; campos and marresolution amending the terms of the existing local agency formation commission lafcoo positions by expanding the scope of services for the senior program officer; extending the term of employment additional three years through june 30, 2016; and utilizing the existing lafco budget to continue funding city clerk: item 2: 130710: [terms of and expansion of scope - existing local agency formation commission positions]1307102.sponsors: avalos; campos and marresolution amending the terms of the existing local agency formation commission lafcoo positions by expanding the scope of services for the senior program officer; extending the term of employment additional three years through june 30, 2016; and utilizing the existing lafco budget to continue funding this position. >>supervisor norman yee: 1234

>> okay, i see supervisor avalos office is present. please come to the microphone if you have comments to make. >> thank you, good afternoon supervisors, frances shea with avalos office. thank you very much chair yee for scheduling this on the agenda today. since the membership of the rules committee has changed a little bit since we last heard this item i hope you will indulge me if i go over it again. supervisors, as you are aware lafco advisory board of the community choice aggregation program has diminished. supervisor avalos response to these changes is start to examine lafco's future scope of work. the item before you doesn't focus on that element of the discussion but this item. specifically given that less time is required to assist with the development, implementation and operation and management of the c ca program it would be better to develop the cost duties to include executive officer duties. currently lafco contracts with miller and ian for it's general

council service. ms. miller was also the council and filled the director position on an interim basis. direct deuces include preparing contracts and rfp's and commission items and staff reports and sfpuc staff and monitoring contracts and preparing budgets and reports for the commission and general services related to what comes up on the agenda for lafco. in the last fiscal year the amount that has charged for general council services was a little over $2,000 for 8 hours of work. during that same period of time, the amount for

executive services is -- in the current year lafco has paid a little over $5,000 and nearly 28,000 for the executive director work. regardless of the duties she fulfills whether they are the general council, the bill is the same. the resolution before you today is a result of conversation that lafco has had in a few years and an attempt to address this inefficient use of budget. this resolution does two things by consolidating the executive director duties into 1975 senior development specialist position and that rate those services could be built at the lower rate of $52.86 an hour. in the last fiscal year this would have

saved $54,000. this allows for the funding source of the director duties. this allows for the continuation of that. and i know there is a question about how much was in there. currently there is a little over $375,000 still in the fund and we have an agreement with sfpuc with cca and there is $665,000 left. this also does is it extends the possible term for the 975 position for the 3-year period. to be clear this resolution doesn't guarantee that this position will remain for 3 years. it allows the position to stay open, to extend for another 3 years. as i referenced earlier lafco and it's commissioners are planning to review the work

scope and future work plans and as a result of that discussion, that will ultimately determine what the future work scope and length of contract for the 9975 position is. this resolution allows it to go up to 3 years. so i hope that's enough background and information for you to support this item today. i can try answer any questions you might have. the clerk of the board isn't here and available, so we may have to call on lafco staff if you have any operations questions. in the meantime if you have anything, any questions for me. >>supervisor norman yee: thank you, frances. supervisor campos? >> thank you very much for the excellent presentation. i'm actually somewhat surprised that this item has taken so long to get out of committee. i would strongly urge my colleagues to move it's item forward. i have been a member of lafco since i got elected
