>> all right. all right, well it is not showing up. well, the housing ladder, it only has two rungs. and i mean, we have got a housing ladder. with two rungs and it is a supportive housing and no training for us. >> thank you. >> appreciate it. >> next speaker please. >> [ speaking in a foreign language ] my name is catalina kerera. we are asking more homes and less jails. more rehab programs for the

homeless families. allow six years in which i have been homeless with my daughters. >> i have seen a lot of the stories of latinos. we come to this country, and to learn the language is a barrier. there are a lot of workers that do not speak spanish. >> it is difficult to communicate our needs and the needs of our kids. and i have a 6-year-old daughter. >> she is constantly asking, mom when are we going to have a house, when is it going to be ready? she is thinking of a big house.

she is unaware of the reality that is happening these days. i am looking for an environment that is full of like child like images. i don't want her to be constantly and preoccupied about where we are going to be living. and she is still very young, she is only 6 years old. she is very intelligent and she is my main motivation and the reason why i don't give up and she says hey, never give up.

and she is always, asking for a home. and so i am asking that our voice is to be heard and not to be ignored. being a single mother is not an easy task. but it is on you future and our children's future. i am requesting you to open section eight. and for those who do not have that kind of income. i will keep on asking god and i am asking god right now. i am aware that my god is all

mighty. and give us the answers that we need. and all of us living in the streets. >> thank you very much and any other members wish to comment? >> hi, i'm laerry and i live at sro and this here today is examiner, and i am wondering why we work with the president and expose in our habitat for humanity because you know that

we have a house we are hungry and don't have violence and my connection here is that a lot of women are talking about the violence and violence where you stay at. and you have it where you stay at is not a home any more. make sure that there are no violence and make sure that we have too many buildings that are already and some of these buildings could be used to house people, and two or three years and we can do this and you know we are americans and the americans fight wars all over the world. we found the cure to aids and they do a lot of things and in this country, i can't believe that we cannot come up, with saying that we will fight the wars and other places that we have war at home and people for living. any time that you live without

a house you will have crime. and we should not make the jails the number one place in the country, it is time to step up and do the right thing, because nobody has to respect us when you don't care of your own. >> any other members of the public that wish to comment? >> okay. seeing none, public comment is closed. thank you for being part of this and all of the presenters and the service providers and members of the public that spoke as we dig into the subpopulation and we want to thank you, and we know that we need to have specific services. and look forward to having that

discussion. and for the people, that continue to do that and we need to do more and having the familys all right. welcome back

everyone to the san francisco budget & finance committee for wednesday, may 14, 2014. my name is a mark farrell i'll continue to chair the committee and joined by the other supervisors we left off with item one so madam clerk call it through 4 >> for the appropriation of estimated fees and expenditures for the city and county of san francisco as may first, 2014e.

in 20015 and 16. item 3 the new positions in the appropriation ordinance wore the selective departments for city and county of san francisco for june 2016-2017 and 2015. for the international airport public library and public utilities commission and for the fiscal years 2014-2015, 2014 and 2016-2017 >> we have the airport slated first do you have your team hee we can put you back further. >> good afternoon director martin is in a meeting with the mayor so if it's okay to call

the port first he'll be here momentaryly. >> you're up. >> good afternoon. thank you for having the hearing i'm representing the port of san francisco and joined by our chief financial officer given we were here 2 or 3 weeks ago we're going to keep this is to numbers. so i wanted to start with the two year budgets bottom line which is that we are aiming all our expenditures inform address our high priorities and instantaneously we've talked about those and we're working very hard to contain our limited exhibit no. 2 comprehend to

visit in our capital needs and we have a policy i mentioned last time the port adapted the designation to capital that requires to set aside 20 percent of our praigs revenues for capital needs and as currently you structured our budget proposal falls short of this and i'd like to mention that the budget analyst has recommended cuts for into years and we're in agreement with the cuts and my thanks to the hard work and line by line scrutiny and we would ask the committees permission to consider reinvesting both the surplus funds into capital expenditures so we can meet our timelines. so quickly the key priorities to

maintain a financial future it's driven by the boarder economy it's important to preserve is industrial and economic uses at the port and preserve the space for production distribution repair with the eastern neighborhood nonprofits they're popped by nonprofits and, of course, continue to redevelop and rehab and reuse our historic facilities which we have begun with you we have a very, very long ways to go. of really the great import to the city is, of course, the estimates for rising sea level and how the port can respond to that since the eastern shoreline is within the ports boundary. capital needs remains very large

we have, of course, identified this year about $1.6 billion in capital needs and identified the $600 million that is about a shortfall of $10 billion and it requires the port staff and port commission to consider the trade off between expenses and capital needs and try to balance accordingly so we'reizing that closely i've already mentioned. that's the high-level supervisors if it's okay with you i thought i'd ask meg 80 an so walk through the numbers >> thank you. >> as on overview the budget is increasing and important to note of that growth 7.6 million is driven by operating revenues we've split between the

designation of futuristic capital. if you're looking at or you've found the slide of the presentation the operating expense has monique explained we're going to accommodate the known growth and the strategic priorities like staffing and other projects. the designation of future capital is trying to meet the capital policy but the other significant part of our growth is the new project the $14.2 million the port entered into the agreements with developers those expenses are offset by the payment its not new to the port but allows us to make the portside expenses in those projects

>> a quick question does that include the money to be reallocated based on the heather's cuts. >> this is brown where the cuts are allocated to. >> so this will grow. >> yes. in the second year by a anytime of $5 million and however only 1.3 million of that increase is for additional prevail growth the rest into our capital we're trying to prioritize the capital investment and then this slide shows the trends over the last, you know, this is looking at a snapshot of revenue trends we're trying to you can see the fiscal year 2014-2015 is slightly lower than the other years that's really the 2014-2015 go budget

bums up trying to capture our snapshot of revenues to allocate any of the designation to future capital and the real items driving our growth open the pie chart over the two year window is the rents and parking and crews and commercial industrial rent and parking are based on trends as well as the benefit of being able to reuse the venues that were previously taken over by the america's cup. we're happy to say the driver is the opening of our crews terminal on peer 27 this reflects the passenger facility charge we're helping to have that parking revenue we're going to be able to generate as a result of the site

>> supervisor breed. >> thank you for bringing up parking. i was wondering if the port has taken measures for signage and lights for the ability of individuals to see the parking meets at night there are charges related to parking in the area in the evening >> i'll be able to answer that but i'll turnover to other port staff. >> because if there's a cost savings it's reallocates to another location i want to advocate so far support ♪ particular area >> are you talking about the waterfront or the area of the meters. >> the waterfront. >> that's about 7 miles of parking meters so some 8 years ago the port piloted a program with meters on behalf of the

city ultimately you know the city choose not to move forward those meters they were impossible to read we've been slowly swapping them out this project is funded and moving through so we shouldn't have any issues with the lighting and from the city itself but i'll investigate so its accurate information. >> i, of course, had a personal issue i know of individual that are older who don't have the handicap stickers for parking but they were parking in the evening and said they couldn't read it and realize they had to pay the meter. >> one thing that's happening with the decals a lot of people will park in the ferry building

area before 7 o'clock and sits in the space that signals that the meter they're parking illegal it's not okay. so we've worked with sfmta as well. >> the clear signage in the evening time particularly with the parking meters they go to 10 o'clock at night. >> supervisor mar. i'm reilly appreciating the financials but can i ask you're looking at preserving space for nonprofit and there's a point also have adapting to rising sea level and i know that's a cost to the city but if you get talked about the key priorities >> yes. what see happening in

san francisco and in the bay area the demand for warehouse space it above the space particularly at the port where it's proven to be good homes for providers and nonprofits for cheaper rents so with the added pressures of people needing chair space in san francisco we want to make sure that didn't displace some of the other needs only nonprofit but the distribution repair for the whole city i don't want to sound like this is an issue yet but we're mindful in making sure that our property didn't force nonprofits to have to move away. the sea level rise and the seaw
