meeting due to the fact that as of the end of this month, november 30th, that will be one member of the policy committee and that is me, hopefully we will have a plan and maybe even two members for the january meeting and we have what looked to be a very exciting agenda if we in fact have enough people. >> so thank you. >> thanks. >> any comments, or questions? >> members of the public? comments on the policy committee report. >> next item please? >> commission secretary's written report, the and you also have in your packet a copy of the commission's correspondence log and listed on the correspondence received from the public to the

commission and status, thereof and there was a 2015 meeting schedule for your commission and committee meetings and upon request of the commissioner king on the september 30th meeting, a member from the commission, listing the guidelines that are used to compile meeting minutes. >> thank you. >> and thanks very much for getting this all to us in writing and any comments or questions on the secretary's report? >> i just want to say, how much i appreciate getting this legislative report. and thank you for that. and not to put you on the spot, but are there any items that you want to highlight that the department was involved in, and i can't tell from this report which ones we influenced and which ones just kind of happened in spite of us.

>> commissioners rodriguez for the record. the report that the commissioners get is one that i put together on a weekly basis. and looking over at all of the items of interest that the department either program staff or senior staff may have, with respect to the happenings at the board of supervisors so we are tracking primarily those ordinances of resolutions that have relevance to our department, and if it is, a public transit, and in terms of the mta's effort and if it is efforts at the public utility's commission with respect to the energy efficiency and we are tracking and making sure that we are on top of those and then again, of course, appeared before the public works department for example, as well as we track idealy what we do with a lot of that information is that if there are items that

are coming before the board then we will flag those and either meet with the sponsor, at the board of supervisors, and give our comments to the process, or we will actually attend and support those items and most recently as our director shared with you, we certainly are tracking the safe ordinance that is one that our department is prioritizing just this week. and for example, as well, the other item that we we were tracking is the renewal and there are about three others that we are talking that have not yet made appearance at a hearing, but one is on clean

construction that supervisor. and the mayor introduced last week, three resolutions that will allow the city to join, to the join power authorities to do the energy efficiency and so we are working with the mayor's office, and thank you very much for that and i also wanted to mention that i really appreciate the work that went into the guidelines on how the meeting minutes are put together and i find it really interesting to see, what we need to know and what is up to us, and i appreciate that

report. >> and so do i, since i was the person who asked for it at least, i really, and i appreciate it, and it is very clear you can see in doing the minutes, monday ka, it is very good, thank you. >> thank you. >> public comment. >> none. >> next item, future agenda. >> and i am just wondering and sort of how, the city and planning works. but, how do we ask for more general fund money and is that something that we talk about as a commission, in the future to

and i think that it will be a good discussion for the operation's committee to dig into, and maybe even we could invite somebody to help us understand that or joe could help us and again fer as well. >> i appreciate you flagging it and offering to help because it is going to take, as you know, general fund money is very competitive, and we need to make the case, why this is the best use. >> and i understand that, we decided to give it up on purpose. i mean that it was something that we stepped away from,

originally, >> commissioner wald. >> i want to say as i always do at this point in the agenda is that i want to talk about the joint meeting with the puc but i also want to endorse an idea which director brought up at the policy committee, which was having katherine sneed, whose program is entitled... >> the garden project. >> and come to the full commission and give us a presentation about it. and it is, and it is a very inspiring and a successful and a wonderful program. and i think it would give us the opportunity to begin thinking about how we the

commission could help the department and think about how we could partner with katherine and that project. and to, bring more publicity to it. >> yeah. >> for one thing, but, potentially other benefits as well. >> it is nice, or urban agriculture idea. >> okay. >> commissioner wan? >> i want to take it back to the general fund discussion i think that it should be time sensitive matter. and i understand that the department for the budget to the mayor's office and i think in february. and if we have any recommendations for the general fupd we need to make that prior to that, and to go along in terms of the time lines, so i want to make sure that it is an urgent mat and her should discuss it in january or at the operation committee. >> right. >> andan, 12. >> yeah. >> so that is one thing, and the sex thing is that i would

like to suggest that we can go, to the representative, to talk about the green project, in china town to present. and i am not sure if it will be at the policy committee or the full committee meeting. >> i was thinking that the full commission would be great and so the then, is, is that when we have our meeting in china town, and would that make the most sense, i don't know, but i don't know when that will be. >> right. >> any more suggestions for the future items? >> any public comment on the future agendas? >> there being none, next item. >> public comments, members of the public may address the commission on the matters that are within the commission's jurisdiction and not on today's agenda. >> i don't see any. >> next item. >> adjournment, 7:47.
