and prosecuting people with mental health conditions is not the answer sea having the ability to access what the conditions of the individuals early on and being able to do the right level of the work and at the same time, we're keeping the community safe is going a long way it's not only socially responsible but economically 0 responsibly. i'm holy hoping as we moved the board and mayor's office can look at closely. it is so much more economically effective to had had right thing >> colleagues, any other further questions or comments. >> okay. thank you very much. and we'll open this up for public comment anyone wish to

comment on items five or six >> okay seeing none, public comment is closed. again, i want to thank our district attorney and all the speakers safe flight back to new york. colleagues a motion to file items five and six we'll take that without objection. and madam clerk call item 7 >> item 7 ordinance african-american the administrative code and payment of the prevailing was this on property owned by the city. >> thank you chair farrell. i'm looking for mr. winn he's the deputy city attorney. colleagues this legislation is frail many years in the making

because it is overall on amendment to the local hiring ordinance that was passed in december even if 2010. that ordinance was applying the local hire principle percentages rising every year we're in the year of a pause to do an assessment for workers to get hired for publicly you funded public works projects. this new amendment to the ordinance is actually adding in 2 parts that we will extend local hiring to public and private land for language for prevailing wages as well it follows the same process we had in place for the local hire ordinance and mr. flynn is coming now. it's pretty straightforward the

approach but there's many departments that have coverage and we're concerned about how the policy will fit the work they're doing and i wanted to be flexible to make sure we can maximum local resident getting hired but understand the complexities that the departments had to go through. there's 3 well, actually now 2 main projects that large practice writing these promotions that are going to be moving forward over the next few years if not decades the project on the south side of the giants ownership and one by forest city by pier 70 they've got an agreement that was made early on

before the term sheet was approved by the board of supervisors they've apply the local hiring to the projects in their myth that was done before this ordinance came forward this ordinance would if we were to not make amendments that will allow the entities the giants to meet the standards rising every year for the local residents but they've come forward with the previous commitment we're going to have an amendment that mr. flynn will explain that be kind of grandfather them in. i want to thank them going from the original 25 percent local hiring rate to a thirty percent local hiring rate. this was a big decision they had

to go back to our sponsors to accept that i think i need to acknowledge that was done. so mr. flynn if you want to share with us some of the main amendments that we had today wore 40 are the ordinance and if my colleagues have questions >> thank you, supervisor. so package you have before you on page 6 in subsection 3 b adds 3 new exemptions for which the local hire policy requires it is exempting the tenant improvements estimated to cost less than $750,000 for the building permit where it is contracted by tenant >> that's effectively the projects at the port that's

where the request are for the amendment. >> that's correct. the request came from the port it was a multi department meeting headed up by oewd and the mayors task force and they discussed this exemption and 3 others 2 of which are in the packet but the port was the one that was put that forgot and there was a concern that is smaller tenants on port property would have a little bit more trouble matching the needs around the local hiring and prevailing wage and about local hire >> okay. >> the second exemption for projects for special events where the special event is 3 days or few consequent or no one consequent things like 2 day events in the park or where the

event is lessons e.r. less than that 3 days. the third exemption is for construction projects where it's fund by a donors agent where the gift agreement didn't require the city funds to be used for construction and the workers be paid the same prevailing wages. those are in the package you have before you >> and this last project in particular evading the work on the playground; is that correct? >> yes. rec and park described a project there's a potential donor to give out that entire project to the city. >> we don't see that many projects currently in the pipeline that matches that exemption. >> i believe rec and park is

here they can talk about the scope of the projects i don't see those types of project this is not exempting the project and the city issued a construction project that's covered as currently by the local hiring principle. >> thank you and explain some of the deliberations we've had around the prevailing wage and so the next section of the ordinance that's in our package rather than having a new class of construction projects that would be covered by the payment of prevailing wage on projects owned by the city and county the supervisor and the folks took did opportunity opportunity to align this prevailing wage with state law. if we add this payment in the

subcommittee where in november of 2013, the california leg all right. passed the requirement to the chapter city pay the prevailing wages as denied by the state as of january fixture 2015 or they're not entitled to seek construction fund. this adds any category of projects covered by state to our requirements it didn't take away any of the prevailing wage requirements but any loopholes or gaps that project is brought brought into it by this amendment. there's one other amendment an amendment dealing with an issue not in our package that was

discussed with our office i'll have to read it read into the record >> so this is a fourth exemption to the local hiring policy to add to subsection 662 subsection 4 the following sentence projects that as of the effective date of this subsection have a term sheet endorsed by the board of supervisors and have finding fiscal feasibility and agriculture to be community investment & infrastructure commission the projects to made sure hiring per exorbitantly by oewd pr that's a fourth exemption to the newly expanded

code. >> thank you very much. >> there's an enforcement section and it has two provisions in one section. >> please read that this is what i was river to the giant in forest city to make sure that the decisions they voluntarily made and the language you're going to present right now. >> given the agreement of going up to thirty this fits spots exemption this roadways a new subsection a to say that oewd shall issue rules and regulations for enforcement of the policy where the construction contract is issued but an entity or individual

other than the city so would give oewd enforcement over the class and at the end of that section the following sentence would be added for projects i'm sorry for projects where the construction is issued by an individual other than the city oewd is authorized to grant conditional waivers on the basis that a finds the contractor has participated to the extent feasible in the mechanisms available and has undertaken all corrective actions by oewd and little 3 considering all referral sources and the best estimates of the workers there will be an insufficient available local residents and disengaged workers to enable contractor and subcontractors to

satisfy the local requirement. >> very good i motion to accept it as a whole and also the language that you have presented to us right now. the language you described that you shared right now about the percentage the thirty percent i want to make sure that that is a percentage that applies to all individual trades as that's correct within the sentence it applies to each trade >> very good. so colleagues this is an amendment as a whole correct mr. flynn so colleagues i'd like to motion to accept this amendment as a whole as well as the language that mr. flynn described for the record >> supervisor avalos made a motion we'll entertain the motion after. is there any other comments from

our supervisors or district attorney >> let's discuss about the local hire ordinance in general. i'm really grateful for the work of the mayor's office and the office of economic workforce development and the flexibility of our developers and contractors the building trades for their work we've actually, you know, seen we've come very far in terms of how we're doing the program and we've created a sea change in san francisco it was a difficult change for many organizations to accept. but i think we've moved past that and now we're at a phrase we're going looking at to the future to make sure we're getting rid of the problems that exist and making sure we have a good fit between our contractor and building trades and between

the city build program we have a ways to go i suspect i'll be coming back back to look at how the system works right now we have a pause in the yearly rising percentage to actually collect data to understand how well, the system it functioning we've agreed to that it's helpful to get support but also to make sure we do things right and delay the concerns whether or not it program is effective. we're in the middle of the pause i appreciate the flexibility we've had great success in getting people to work and that's all we can do as we see the economy grow we have to make sure we're going to make sure the great outreach organization

and encouraging residents to get jobs in the growing city so i want to thank everyone who's been part of the effort and thanks to the mayors task force and construction committee where a lot of the recommendations have coverage including the ideas of the owners itself. with that, we can go on to public comment or colleagues, any questions about this owners we can entertain those right now >> colleagues, any questions or comments. any city departments that are here wish to comment on this. all right. open this up for public comment oh, we have a city department. >> donna labor of office standard enforcement i thought i'd add to the discussion about

involved in the set up and take down of trade show on city property are paid a living wage. we want to make sure that the people living in san francisco, california live here we have a history of making sure that people are paid a decent wage. this legislation that is endorsed by san francisco labor council says that workers will be paid for take down and set up and others special events when this work happens on city property. the legislation is clear and explicit that street fairs run by nonprofits and other community event are not included in this legislation. the legislation is about insuring with the large

corporate events the advertising of a product product and service pay a living wage they spill out into the city streets are include like the pride and folsom in free public access are not. when the legislation was introduced there was concern raised they'll be saddled with a new financial obligation they couldn't food that's not the case. colleagues this is the right thing to do and will have a benefit to the workers. today i'll be making a cynicism

non-adjective action after the board of supervisors adapts the wage so we have a prevailing wage rate created by the commission so colleagues, i ask for your support and i would like to call up joe the business representative from local 10. >> thank you to the board and to supervisor wiener. also to andreas power who has worked with us for quite sometime. this is a big deal furs. i've been with local 510 for 42 years grew up in san francisco and the sign delay work is my trade it's allowed me to stay and make a good living in the

with local 16 and the teamster's and took that as a prime model to follow suit and avoid conflicts in the future we're working with getting along with each other for the benefit of the city and industry. i really appreciate the opportunity be to be able to put forth this language. i'd like to call forward a couple of members from our union that by the end from the work we do >> why don't they come up urging during public comment we appreciate the remarks. >> thank you.
