commission we recorded the details for the completion of the project is $24 million plus on page 8 of our router we note that is shown in table 6 to data total of $800,000 plus in funding sources has been secured so the friends with the assistance of r public works d need to secure the last funding for the project prior to mentioning of the construction in quarter 3 of 2016 on page 12 of our report we note there is no guarantee that the friends will be able to obscure secure the insufficient funding and we further report if funding is not gotten the city will have to support the funds through

2018 for $150 million for rb d project the carbarn could be potentially included in the future, however, you know the barn fund are subject to the board of supervisors approval as well as the voter approval finally open page are 13 of our report we report that the city attorney's office advised it the subject lda only provides the framework and the firstborns to work out together to try to secure the necessary funds the city is not under an obligation conceptually to provide the funds therefore not a significant risk to the city our recommendations on the bottom of page thirteen we recommend you report back to the board of supervisors in april of 2015 and again by june 2014 to be heard

at a public hearing to hear about the friends plans and they plan to secure the funds and further we recommend you approve this. >> thank you, mr. rose supervisor mar. >> thank you, mr. rose and it will be an incredible place for young people with media skills and so many community balances agencies is incredible i want to ask if you can respond to the budget analysts response that a lot of money has to be raise in the next several months or the budget analyst acknowledges that half a million dollars many worthy said the the number of proposals were supplied for grant and there's will man ta plan to raise the money what's the plan it's a good idea to

brings it back to the board in 6 months. >> i'm happy to speak to that so as part of the approval early this year of the $38,000 that the city committed for moving the design work forward the friends agreed to raise an additional 4 hundred 36 plus a so we're underway that's your immediate priority and the relationship between the city and the agency is incredibly important we have right now proposals out for we're over $400,000 and have one of the proposals concluded the challenge grant so you know those are we won't beat around the bush those will be hard to

raise but i think the leverage that the opportunity presents is significant so far we'll have favorable responses in terms of of the invitations so we'll be successful and happy to report back in april. >> business of luck too. >> okay. colleagues in no questions is there any member of the public who wishes to speak on item one? >> good morning, everyone. supervisors i'm dan weaver speaking as the character of the geneva office building i'll repeat this l be guess building inspection commission dictionary a an important to approach the partners for the project right now we have no written relationship with the city it's incredibly important to have

this before we talk about this partnership how we're raising money and how we're working with the city so obviously the board strongly proves approve and endorses it and >> is there any member of the public who wishes to speak seeing none, public comment is closed. i want to thank supervisor avalos for bring this and rec and park for presenting and mr. clerk if i could add my name a as co-sponsor. >> thank you and a for your interest in the carbarn i know you took a tour that's significant knowing the success of the carbarn is people acknowledgement across the city is a vital resource for the city thank you for reaching out and

getting to know tim worthy who is doing a lunch for the fundraising effort this is a big step in order to show you that we made progress for the fundraising so colleagues, i urge your support and also i would like to accept the budget analyst recommendation and also to another motioning motion another amendment i'd like to make at request of the clerk of the board to delete the last resolve clause which reads it is just a vague clause not really needed to have further resolved with the respect to the lda the lease and excess licenses are rectified ratified in the term. >> so a motion by supervisor

avalos to make that change resolve clause to accept the budget analyst report and accept the line item as amended we'll take that without objection. >> i'd like to ask the department provide us with the change before 9:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. >> item 2 is a resolution to perform a contracted between the heath services and the department of public health services notary republic the mental health from homeless the community health grant for jill u july 1st through june 2015 and 3 a resolution to adapt the 2018 integrated plan. >> thanks we have marlow from our department of public health

mental health services block grant in the feds they're all 3 to serve children and adults with mental illness and the other resolution is the approval of the mental health service integrated plan and this plan happens to be one of the key requirements within the performance contract so they're kind of enter linked one important note about the first resolution there's been an amendment from the request of the clerk there's a resolution lines 8, 9 and referenced 17 through 20 the resolution says that the director community health services director has the right to sign future amendments so the resolution are to the

performance contract that's been removed at the request of the clerk on lines 17 through 20 because the performance contract is a resolution we've had recently passed in the last 6 months i'm going to talk about the 3 year plan and i think everyone is familiar with prop 63 a ballot issue 10 years ago to provide the funding for the mental health it's funded over one million dollars and the actuaries the community participate with stakeholders from a comprehensive process to develop and submit program expenditure plans we've done that since 2005 and in 2014 a new
