the public that would like to comment. >> yes bruce wolf speaking for myself. on the elections and open source software. i suggest that the city become a member of cavo and association of elect officials and do work on open source and security is correct and there is consistency across these types of softwares. i think it's important. it gives you a breath of information and substance for that. i believe it was originally contained in the original language of the legislation and then subsequently later was pulled. thank you. >> good afternoon. one more time commissioners, eric brooks local green party, our city. first i would reiterate what bruce wolf said and that should be included in the legislation
5:31 pm
and then for on future agenda items when you do have your next joint meeting with the sf puc this is just kind of a point of information -- especially i think the supervisors might be clued in on this but the public members i want to make sure you know about it. in the scott wiener london breed legislation that cleared authorizes the puc to sell express hetch hetchy power in the city to make money and bring clean energy to the city. >> >> originally when that legislation was drafted in july it did not include making cleanpowersf a priority customer of that power, and thankfully advocates approached supervisor wiener's aid and they
5:32 pm
graciously included an amendment that makes it clear that yes cleanpowersf is in the queue by that power and that is very important. even if cleanpowersf buys that power at full retail rate there are benefits from that because it helps -- we were discussing the wind power, solar power doesn't happen to be working and you have hydro power there as well in the mix and balances the resources out and help lower load curves on peak load and save money on the whole system as a whole so i want to tip you off that is what is in what passed on tuesday and that's important. thanks. >> thank you. any other member ever the public to comment? seeing no member come forward we will close public comment and we can go on to the next item. >> you have a motion on the floor i believe. >> i'm sorry. we have a motion on the floor. can we take that colleagues without

5:39 pm
we brought miss changg on and we are seeing the continuation of that effort and we are actually between exceptionally good and outstanding over all rating. and we actually really appreciated the presentation from our executive director, and hitting a number of high points this past year. and especially in the collaboration in cooperation with the mayor's office, and many of the agencies within the city itself. but also within the region. hitting some significant, you know, achievements, working with, you know, cal train, and with the mtc and abag and then we have a number of projects that we have been able to see that go forward. and that we have really been the high point as well for the transportation authority and we are seeing too much and in the mobility agency come together for the leadership and the continuation of the doyle drive as well as the work around the
5:40 pm
ear for the geary bus, rapid transit, coming for us next year, and the leadership that she has shown within the transportation authority has been quite exceptional and we rated her, you know, according to that and we want to thank you, miss chang for your work and it is really been a pleasure to work with you this past year. i will be not serving as chair, after this year, but i know that there will be other folks coming in. but it has been a real pleasure to work with you and i have been proud in the work in the transportation authority and the collaborative lacing that is going on with the colleagues and the board and all around city hall. are we in open session? >> we are, and so i just want to thank you for your great work in that. and i am not sure if the colleagues with anything else to add to it? >> actually i will just briefly say that i think that our director really increased the visibility of the agency and i
5:41 pm
think that her active involvement with as much as the city transportation, but also the community related events is very noticable. and i think promoting the 25-year organization to as many organizations whether they are city wide or neighborhood based is really an important improvement. i think more work with the press and communications is visible to the chinese press and i want to thank you and appreciate that and i think that you have shown a self-critical approach to how you are running the agency based on a lot of feedback and i noticed that, and as a con stanlt, effort to improve, i think that the morale of the staff that we have put in the feedback is really a great morale and i think that you are continuing to build a great team, especially the office of the deputy directors and also the whole staff. and i really appreciate as our chair avalos has mentioned, the work in regional bodies, and
5:42 pm
the visibility there. and especially joint work, and better relationships with the mta. and lots more of a collective approach to our city wide transportation issues. and i think that those were the main points that i wanted to just give appreciation for, and acknowledgment of all of the great work that is being done. >> great, thank you. >> so, just want to make sure that we are going to call a roll call vote on each of the items 3 and 4 but i want to make sure that the colleagues that we agree not to disclose the content of the closed session. >> okay. >> very good. so when it comes to item number four, recommend annual compensation, and what we had decided was that you know coming in as step five and some of the you know allowances that were provided as well we wanted to see more time leading the agency before going to the next step and so we were going to
5:43 pm
continue at this step, but it is something that we felt that the work certainly warrants you know, getting there with time. and continue on the same trajectory that we are on now and so i would like to bring it up again next year, the step next step increase and to me, that makes sense that we, you know, given the trajectory that you have been on that makes a lot of sense after two years of service within the agency. and i think that will kind of a consensus on the commission as well. so, what i would like to see with the motion to approve item number 3. and i guess, what will the motion be on item four? >> okay. >> and so item four will be to maintain the current step. and item three will be to approve the over all rating of, you know, exceptionally good, and we have in the record as
5:44 pm
well. our just, well, we will expressed was to you, was our real satisfaction with your work as a executive director. >> so, i will make the motion to move. or those two motions. >> i will second. >> and we will take that roll call vote. >> item 3 and 4, commissioner avalos? >> aye. >> cohen? >> aye. >> mar. >> aye. >> the items pass. >> i think that we didn't have a comment on those. >> so, let's rescind the vote. >> the motion is rescinded. >> great, and we will open up these two items up for the public comment. >> so thank you so much, for your thoughtful feedback for your consideration and your support of me and the staff this past year it has been a privilege and an honor to serve
5:45 pm
the city in this way. i have really grown a lot in my first year and i continue to strive to improve personally in my leadership of the agency as well as far as the over all agency's effort but we are on a very strong path. i think that your guidance and your support over the past year have been critical to our agency and to our staff from the leadership on the policy aspects of the transportation plan and the investment proposals from the t2030 plan all the way to the staff proposal and it has just been a pleasure working with you and your staff and we want to thank you very much again for your support. >> thank you. >> okay. so we will take that roll call vote. >> okay. >> on item three and four. >> public comment. >> okay. >> items 3 and 4, commissioner avalos? >> aye. >> cohen? >> aye. >> pa mar? >> aye. >> the items pass. >> thank you. >> and again, thank you for your great work this past year.
