6:40 pm
fiscal year 092010 and in fiscal year $20,102,011,830 so you'll see did general fund carried forward was building so that's the reason for the subsequent request getting smaller and in the fiscal year 1112 the appropriations stopped. >> and then there's the combination of fund that come from the utility commission as well. >> yes. >> for lap co- >> yes. that is acquisition recommended expenditures. >> so currently do we said what the puc so planning to provide for lap co-for the next fiscal year $149,000 is that the request. >> the one hundred and 49 the

6:43 pm
or audits consultants should it be required the two groups we're paying the staff time like the underground of the fiber network and on the on source protection system we've not been doing the works we're going into the remainder of the fiscal year and then we also have a new policy at lap co-to make sure we'll have a large reserve account we have gotten to the point that the reserve will be below our annual budget so we need to pay attention how much we have in the reserve and have a policy to set aside money so it can't be touched so faa staff person leaves at the end of the year we pay them or the commission decided to dip into the account
6:44 pm

6:46 pm
cola. >> on top of the last. >> on top of the last. >> supervisor mar. >> i hope you feel better he know the fly is getting around thank you for the personnel savings allen and on the non personnel items it's appropriate that the training funds are going towards legislative aids that's needed and it allows each of our offices to look at how we want to pull up the skills the multi functional machine is good machines become archaic so i'm appreciative of sharing of the office machines as well and i'm very supportive of the lap coagulation and the cola from the budget analysts i'm supportive thank you.
6:47 pm
>> okay. thank you colleagues do you think it ma'am if you're watching your preference to come back next week or to the call of the chair. >> i think that the department defers to the wishes of the committee she'd love an opportunity to talk about the budget so - >> let's up this up for public comment i have one card monthly wishes to comment please step forward we'll start now if i want to come up. >> good morning, supervisors thomas first, let me say i'm very happy with the clerk's office and i having said that a couple of comments one i would preferred to see this budget
6:48 pm
proposals b put on line a couple of days before the presentation there's a lot of information in this proposal for the financing of the next two years i'd urge the clerk to submit in packet form online the packet a couple of days before, and, secondly, most important i'm troubled by the lack of funding for the task force if you see the funding for the task force is less than one percent of the budget half of what's being proposed from the youth commission so the message is trouble to me that the task force is not being appropriated more money and for the supervisors that are interested in transparent and on government i would suggest that you recommend to the clerk's office that more money is
6:49 pm
appropriate to the task force the task force i mean is not tifld and i think the cost to actively it would be $40,000 secondly not provided a full-time deputy city attorney and that's another area additional monies appropriated to the task force so they become nor effective and transcript in open government for the supervisors and city agencies and departments thank you. >> thank you very much is there any additional public comment seeing none, public comment is closed colleagues let me suggest we continue this to the call of the chair and which pits appropriate when our clerk is back so can i have a motion to that effect supervisor mar's we'll continue this to the call of the chair we'll take that without objection. >> madam clerk, any other business before this committee?
