2:00 am
level of security four many of the hard working custodians. >> so the custodian team they're there. >> i did want to clarify that the requirements for let's see for property service contractors perform security are in the chiu and the mar so it's consistent as well. >> okay and just out of curiosity i understand that maybe this was a committee last weekend that kind of the waving for alcoholic bargaining was taken out i understand that exists in other ordinances just terms of policy prospective on having that out
2:01 am
to understand - and so we wanted to legislation to be as board and covered as possible taking that waiver out for collective bargaining agreement was important and covering hass as many as possible and local 2 brought up the small number of employees in the hotel who are employees of the hotel not for example, soft story building that is in the hilton that's one of the important ones that as people testify i'll be working closely with the coalitions and the city attorney to craft something that is clear legislation. >> i think that makes sense what you were talking about i had a few other questions and appreciate our indulge of my ramming up literally open the topic here in the legislation
2:02 am
and i know supervisor avalos has other questions. >> i will make two motions first is to remove the addressing the 2 hundred employee or they recalled for worker retention provisions in the mar, carmen chu or supervisor campos legislation that's one motion. >> sorry clarify added in. >> that was added in on wednesday and my motion is to remove that second is supervisor avalos at wednesday meeting moved to change the 20 employee or more threshold the definition of employer in into owners to one so it went from 20 to one from my understanding and my motion
2:03 am
is to add that 20 employee or more threshold back in and the rational for me it will help some of the smaller franchises and there's data that i know marsha restraining order hospital from supervisor chiu's office or working to show there's a relatively small number of employees that is impacted and along with president chiu harding this back in to 20 is a critical part especially for those types of small franchises that are being sensitive to our legislation. >> actually, i, second the first amendment i really don't understand the rational for going back up to the threshold of 20 anyhow mecca that work we want to be able to
2:04 am
establish retention policies and predictable scheduling in small businesses through this legislation. >> formula retail i don't see the size of the business it should matter when overriding policy is to build retention policies for scheduling why shouldn't he apply to those businesses because their smaller seems like the workers will have the same need of predictability if we're creating a position where the scheduling is enhancing the employment capacity of the store or the franchise it is a policy we want to create we want to create better jobs we're doing that it is two-fold i'm not clear why we
2:05 am
want to weaken the legislation. >> if i could through the chair respond. >> i'll just say i won't speak for president chiu but a difference of employees with h and m or jay crew that can transfer employees across different stores from downtown to the san francisco westerfield center but when it's a franchise like a mcdonald or k f c that hazard employees for that franchise it's a different story they can't have the employees coming from the other franchise it's a small number and makes sense given the smaller picture of moving forward with the legislation that flexibility for those types of franchises. >> okay supervisor you have two motions and the third around the
2:06 am
six months effective date i'm in agreement from a number of speakers from the public six months effective date but not on the six months ramp up that's a discussion based on decide from the office of economic workforce development and on that was the original lead in the legislation to me it makes sense to extend that to six months but not nor the ramp up to eliminate the six months ramp up period. >> so to be clear six months ramp up now a 9 - >> mr. iga in her. >> john gibner, deputy city attorney so going into the last wednesday the ordinance had a months paragraph active day not going into effect until months
2:07 am
later an amendment made on wednesday extend it back to 6 months the entire amendment not practitioner all until the six months period supervisor mar wants to keep that an additional contemplate once the ordinance becomes app operative the vice president can't issue penalties and supervisor mar is proposing today to eliminate the second six months. >> okay. i appreciate that. >> so supervisor mar a total of 3 amendments. >> okay supervisor avalos what would be your presence to do roll diddling. >> yeah. >> i don't want to support the
2:08 am
20 they recalled. >> okay. so colleagues from my prospective just as we've talked about this ordinance i'm getting up to speed in committee i know it's a committee report to be heard tomorrow i would say i'll be confront into this discussions as i've talked with people i; right have no doubt there's been a lot of feedback and the final strokes you have merit to continue to work on that from a labor side and american people employer side but i understand the desire to move that forward and this makes sense as well so i'm happy from my perspective i'll be supporting outline your amendments but i don't know about the items for tomorrow i'm happy to support a no recommendation coming out of
2:09 am
committee and do it with recommendation i'll reserve my ability to vote yes or no madam clerk can we do a roll call vote on supervisor mar's legislation individually. >> motion one by supervisor mar supervisor mar so this is a motion to remove adding the 2 had had they recalled for worker retention provisions in the supervisor mar supervisor campos ordinance and on that motion. >> supervisor mar supervisor avalos supervisor farrell there 3 i's. >> okay motion passes. >> and motion number 2 is to change the 20 employee or the one employee or more up to or more as a threshold in 9 definition the employer in both ordinances my motion to change
2:10 am
that back to 20 the original. >> on that motion. >> supervisor mar supervisor avalos no supervisor farrell 2 i's one no. >> that motion passes and my last motion the third one to change the operative date from months to have months which is what we did but to remove the 6 month ramp up period that goes after the operative dated for both ordinances. >> on that motion supervisor mar supervisor avalos supervisor farrell there are 3 i's and that motion passes par so supervisor mar those items again your call or supervisor avalos with recommendation or without. >> i support the underlying
2:11 am
ordinances and will follow supervisor mar's lead on that so i'd like prefer to send it out with recommendation with a vote and thank my colleagues and the city attorney's office for all the work and i know there will be further decision to with a positive recommendation as a committee reporter for the board meeting tomorrow november 18, 2014, okay. we have a motion that i supervisor mar roll call vote. >> supervisor mar supervisor avalos supervisor farrell no there are 2 i's one no. >> okay items pass. >> they can colleagues madam clerk, any other business before this committee? >> no, mr. chair. >> thanks everyone we're adjourned

2:27 am
want everyone to understand what the authority is, you see, she could display this? okay, at some point. but, the question is why are we refurbishing these, the way that we are and the counter issues that potentially that we are going to have down the road. as they are, these trains are really not powerful enough to put gas in and these are the direction that cal train is headed at. and i think that one of the issues and i wish that supervisor kim was here, is as long as these are around, we will never, ever be able to... (inaudible) because they are not cap able of going to the transbay terminal and a few other points, but the plan is to refurbish them as new. and it is a serious issue because when they were new, they were zero emission's compliant and if we do an engine swap, we can do three things, we can improve the
2:28 am
performance and we will be able to reduce pollution by 90 percent and since we are reducing emissions we now basically become qualified to get a quality management and district grants, which is not even being discussed here. so, in closing, i would just say, right now, we are looking at this and we are wasting $9 million altogether and there is at least 3 million coming from san francisco. and it is in one of the attachments in my e-mail it points to a document and you can see that there, and these are a complete analysis of the benefit of reduced emissions and also costs, but the costs go up and the locomotive,, and that is the only down side, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> are there any other public commenters? in public comment is closed. colleagues, are there any
