visiting this for a really long time. let me, let me -- and i also realize that the difference between when we just look at the ramp up between whether it's 4 years or 5 years, the difference year during the four years would be about $800,000 [speaker not understood]. if you want to increase five years it would be 3.2 million. so, it's $800,000. and what's happened, i was comfortable at five years ramp up and then there's been quite a few things that have changed to make me soften my stance. the main one was the timing of

everything. when we finally figured out what the timing was in terms of completing the spending allocation plan that we looked when it was going to land, it would have landed at the beginning of year 4, where then you would adored need the funding. that in addition to the many, many, many contacts and communications and phone call i received by people in the field to say it won't make any sense if we vote to have a plan and we don't have the funding. so, i have to really dig really deep down to figure out, well, i had a comfort level of five years and that it looks like

there is some logic behind still a ramp up, but it's a four-year ramp up rather than a five-year ramp up. so, at this point i will reconsider my five years and look at supporting the four years. supervisor tang? >> great, thank you for sharing that. again, i think that all of us want to see the increase. i just wanted to make sure all of us especially when we have a full board to feel comfortable with what we have on the impacts of our other baseline. for the purposes of today, i wanted to know what our plans are in terms of reconciling from the differences in the amendments. i said i would be comfortable with a 15-member oversight committee. really for me i just want to make sure we have the various seats dedicated for all the different kind of age groups and communities. so, to the extent we can

accommodate that with an 11 member or 15 member, i don't know we want to consider what supervisor kim did, which would be refer to the board to determine that makeup. >> let me respond to that. i think her recommendation or this amendment is a solid recommendation. it's consistent to the other two , two groups that we have that's going to be new, which is the community advisory committee for the office of ece . we framed it in term of what the framing -- what the general makeup may be, but in term of the actual membership, it would be done through an ordinance

with the counsel. it would be the same thing, we would go through an ordinance. and then rationale here to me was that if you do it for an ordinance, you have an opportunity to see it would work or not work, and that then everything else could be working. but you don't want to go to the voters just because the committee is not working and it would be easier to make changes through the ordinance. so, i would be supportive of supervisor kim's recommendation there. >> just if i may, mr. chair. in term of procedurally sort of how we should move along here, i know that you have, you know, some amendments. i had amendments. supervisor kim also has some amendments. i'm trying to figure out --

>> suggestionseses -- >> supervisor kim? >> thank you, supervisor campos. if i can make a suggestion, i have the same amount of amendments. [speaker not understood] we use supervisor avalos's fund. if we can make a motion to amend supervisor avalos' charter amendment, that is the page that's been distributed to you all here. i did want to clarify. we did keep the number of seats at 11 based on what supervisor avalos had put in. obviously we have another week if you want to clarify that, but it does say the mayor shall appoint for seats 1 to 6 subject to confirmation by the board of supervisors. the board of supervisors shall appoint members seat 7 through 11. the board of supervisors shall further provide by member, so, we did keep the 11 membership. so, i was just going to leave

it at what supervisor avalos said. if we can make a motion to amend supervisor avalos, and then i think a motion to amend supervisor yee's, i think that would be appropriate ~. >> i think the question really is, supervisor kim, some of the recommendations that you have made for amendments is incorporated into the language that supervisor avalos has for his amendments to his -- >> no, supervisor avalos has agreed to our amendments, but the amendments in the sheet we have handed out have not yet been incorporated into the supervisor avalos's version. >> thank you. would you like to have that considered for today? >> yes, i would. i would like the motion to amend to be considered today. >> okay. procedurally -- >> but when do i -- i mean, i can make a motion to amend along the lines of the

documents i circulated to you, changes supervisor avalos has put forward. and can we include in the motion that these amendments would also incorporate the amendments that supervisor kim has also circulated, which is an additional sheet that amends this document? is that appropriate, madam clerk? >> yes, i would actually suggest you adopt supervisor avalos first and [speaker not understood]. >> have a motion to adopt supervisor kim's amendments to the amendments i had circulated on behalf of supervisor avalos. >> thank you. >> is there a second? >> second. >> second. so, with no objection, motion passes. [gavel] >> and then i make a motion to adopt the amendments that i have circulated that include the amendments from supervisor kim.

>> okay. >> sorry, i just have a point of clarification. i'll ask the city attorney perhaps. supervisor yee's amendments incorporate all of the me you'rex in one. so, are we also going to -- >> let me clarify. it's a little confusing. if we pass supervisor avalos' amendments then -- and then we pass any amendments we have for peef, then i would make a motion to [speaker not understood] language that i have amended, put them for amendments. substitute with what was just passed so that we have -- issuing one document going through. >> thank you for that clarification. >> city attorney owen? >> i'll wait till you make the actual amendment. >> okay.

so, there is a motion to adopt supervisor campos' amendments and did you second that? okay, no objection. it passes. [gavel] >> so, let's talk about peef, peef amendments. do you have any other additional -- >> no. >> okay. so, there's -- do we have to -- he we would have to pass that or not? ~ it's coming to the rule. >> oh, you're talking about the rainy day fund charter amendment. >> no, the peef. we can't talk about the rainy day fund yet. >> right. i believe -- >> you didn't have any new language since introducing it to the full board? >> no. so, what i would request is, understanding that we're combining children's fund and peef into one measure, i

believe that item 3 has already been called. so, having the charter amendment that is before you today, the public education enrichment fund, be motioned into supervisor yee's combined children's and family council of san francisco and children and family plan. >> so, i just wanted to clarify that. you didn't have any additional -- >> no. and my understanding is that your version already has included the preamble for the public education enrichment fund. that's already in your version. we're just going to insert the charter amendment underneath that. >> okay. so, i'd like to make a motion that i amend my amendments. i think that's how i'm going to have to do this. where i would substitute what was just passed through the

children's fund amendments that supervisor campos just introduced. i will substitute that language for my children's fund language which is section 116.108 a through p, i believe. so, that's one amendment. ~ that i'm making. and i believe i would need to include inclusion of the peef language into the amendment. >> i apologize, i do have one amendment. i thought this had already been incorporated into your legislation. i had actually requested it, but it's not -- >> >> [speaker not understood]. >> this is not in what was brought to me. it's page 27 lines 11 and 12. it says the measure may be

referred to the art, music, sports and early education for every child amendment of 2014. and i had actually, in the original charter amendment that i introduced on april 24th, i had entitled the measure, the measure may be referred to as the public education and enrichment fund of 2014. >> okay. >> and it coincides, then, with the rest of the language that refers to the fund as the public education and enrichment fund through the rest of the body of the charter amendment. i'd like to make a motion to incorporate what supervisor kim just said. >> this is your piece, right? >> no, it's into your piece. >> so, we'll have two amendments. one which is to substitute the language for children's fund into my -- what i had originally wanted for amendments. >> just to clarify, you are

going to move your second draft as has been circulated, going to change the reference to the peef, and then you are going to substitute wholesale the language of the avalos charter amendment file 443 for the corresponding section of your second draft which is 4-4-1. so, it will be supervisor avalos' 16.108 with supervisor kim's amendments and supervisor avalos' section 16.108-1, which is where he sets up the oversight committee. >> correct. >> thank you. >> so, that's my motion, if you got that. that's why we need another week to look at it.

so, i made a motion and second. any objection? no, okay, with no objection the motion passes. [gavel] >> so, we now have a unifying document that we will be i guess hearing next week. so, at this point i guess we need a motion to continue this item. i think we need a couple motions here. >> i was just going to move that motion to continue the item to the next week. >> okay. >> to the next rules committee meeting. >> and then for -- okay, let's do that first. is there a second? >> second. >> no objection. motion passes. [gavel] >> mr. chair, just to clarify. you're continuing this to the next regular meeting of june

19th or -- >> yes. >> or just continue to the call of the chair in case there is a special meeting held? >> no, this will be heard on the 19th. >> june 19th, okay. >> okay, i think we're done, right? do we have anything else? okay. madam clerk, is there anything else on the agenda? >> that concludes our business for today. >> meeting adjourned. [gavel] (applause)

>> roll call, commissioner adams. >> here. >> brandon. >> here. >> woo ho. >> here. >> approval of minutes for the may 27, 2014 meeting. >> so moved. >> second. >> public comment. none? commissioners comment? all in favor. >> i. >> thank you. item 3, public comment under executive session. no one is here at executive session. >> so moved. >> second. >> all if favor, i. >> i. >> public comment. >> [inaudible] closed session. >> sorry, yeah. she read number three. >> no comment on executive session. >> we did that. >> we okay on that? >> okay, executive session, [inaudible] and real property

negotiator. >> commission to reconvene in open session. >> so moved. >> second. >> all in favor. >> i. >> i move not to disclose anything discussed in closed session. >> second. all in favor. >> i. >> i. >> item 6, pledge of allegiance. >> i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of network. america. and to the republic for which it stands, one nation, under god, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> please be advised the ringing of any use of cell phones, pagers and similar devices are prohibited at this meeting. please re advised the chair may

order removal from the meeting room any person with the ringing of any cell phone or any similar sound producing device. please be advised that any member of the public has three minutes to make public comment on each agenda item. >> public comment? >> okay. >> next item. >> item 9a, executive director's report. >> thank you commissioner adams for chairing our meeting today. welcome to the public and to the port staff, we thank you for being here today. i have quite a few numbers of items to report on today, starting with the very first, bads is holding a interesting summer camp for three weeks,

three one week sessions in the period of june 16, which is next week, through august 8. this summer camp is called a coable sailing summer camp, that will allow disabled sailors and able-bodied sailors to take lessons. the type they're using allows for two students to sit side-by-side and the goal is that the program will combine students with and without disabilities in the manner that will encourage and assist each of them to become independent sailors. it's an amazing idea and we're very proud of both organizations for coming up with such a great program and offering it this summer so week one will start on june 16 and run for the full week. week two will start on june 30 and run through july 4 and week three will start on august 4 and run through the full week;

and the ages are from 7 to 18 years of age. we look forward to reporting back to you on the success of the camp, but we applaud them for their entrepreneurialism. it will take place on mccovey cove. keep an eye out for them. just a secondly i wanted to report that last tuesday on june 3 during the election proposition b passed by a vote of 59%. you may recall this proposition b requires that any changes in height limits on port property need to be approved by the voters of san francisco and that passed as i said by 59%. and from the port's perspective, the voters have spoken and we will adhere to that. wanted to make sure you were aware of that. next is our annual july 4

festivities, which will include the very, very popular fire works, which is in the waters off of fisherman's wharf. they'll start around 9:00 pm. as part of the 4th of july management, the city will be opening its mersay operations center and the port will be participating in the staffing of that center. we look forward to a happy 4th of july with no labor strikes. excited about that. next is another very fun event, which is a joint venture between the san francisco opera and giants on saturday july 5, as part of the 4th of july weekend. they will be offered a free viewing of [inaudible] which will be transmitted live in hd from the memorial opera house. again, this is free to anybody who would like to come and hang out at the ballpark or in the stands or on the lawn, enjoy

the amenities is ballpark has to offer and you may do so all for free, but it is a first come, first serve bay sisz, and tickets are available at sfopera.com. urge anybody that would like to partake in that event to go online and reserve your spot. next in the front row there and a little bit in the row there we have a group of amazing people that came to the rescue recently of a young man. i'm going to try to tell the story as best i know it. they all lived it so maybe they'll correct me if i go wrong. i'd like to start by introducing susan. christine, isaiah howard, michael ruben. thank you. and i believe michael, did [inaudible] come with you? i don't see him.

did mr. mcray come? no. on the evening of june 4, susan was beginning her evening commute home. she works here in this building as the department of public relations and she boarded the ferry to oakland at about 5:30. as she was boarding she heard a cry for help. and so she was diligent and she kept listening and she determined that the cry for help was a voice coming from under the pier there at gate e next to sinbad's restaurant. she tried to alert the crew on the ferry, they weren't able to assist so she called on her cell phone back to christine, who is the director of development in the ferry building and alerted them that she was hearing a cry for help coming from the water.

christine and isaiah, who is participant of the ferry building security director

obviously you make great detectives and the fact you dropped everything to go see and look hard didn't give up when you didn't see him right away is really meaningful as well. of course, i don't think many of us in this room relish the idea of going into the bay so we're always [inaudible] at the san francisco fire department, jerry chang and michael ruben. so thank you very much from the bottom of our hearts and if i could turn it back to the chair for a moment we'd like to acknowledge you. [applause] >> i want to thank you for your heroism and on behalf of the port of san francisco we have a token of our appreciation to thank you for your hard work

and due diligence and looking out and we'll start out with susan. come down. we just first want to be for susan, we have christine, isaiah howard, senior; jerry chang and michael ruben. >> so we'll come around and present you with the mrak. plaque. i can't quite see you rene, but i believe she'll take your picture. >> in recognition of your heroic action on june 4 to save a man's life in the city of san francisco. >> they all say the same thing. thank you very much. [applause]

>> michael, would you take jerry's back with you? unfortunately or fortunately, jerry was not able to join us today. [applause]

>> thank you very much for this honor. it feels odd to me because i don't feel like i did anything that any human being wouldn't do when they think they hear someone yelling for help . thank you, but i think it's what we should all do. i'm happy the man is alive and that everybody responded and i'm proud and blessed to work with the people that i do. thank you. >> thank you susan. >> and i just wanted to echo that the ferry buildings are a really special community and as susan said, anyone in that division would have realized that we needed to take action and i've worked here for 11 years and there's a rich

pageant of life and it's just a testimony to a really great group of people who care about this building. i realize you guys deal with lots of contentious situations all the time, but at the heart of it we're san francisco citizens, we're connected in this building and i was just happy that something very positive came about from this so thank you for the recognition, but -- [applause] >> i want to echo off everything we said. i mean, it was basically a team effort and not one person was -- can be honored. i appreciate everyone for following through and working together and, you know, helping out, getting the fire department here fast as we can and everyone keeping their eye on everything. all i can say is everyone was keeping their ears and eyes out and that way things can be resolved a little bit faster because we could have lost a life there. that's it.

[applause] >> so thank you. thank you so much. it's really great to know that you all are here and paying attention and one of the things i love most about the port is the fact that we don't have to have [inaudible] like most ports and airports do and we do allow people to get up close to the water, and unfortunately sometimes that doesn't go as we planned, but thank you for making sure that when particularly susan didn't get the response you were looking for the firsz try that you just kept trying. we're all the better for it. i have something else to report that occurred after the agenda was made public. as i'm sure you've seen in the media we had a tragedy occur friday in fisherman's wharf. a family was visiting us from utah. they were not staying in san
