and director hinton. they are, as you can see, the total amount modified is, the current is 25 million, a little over that, then the modification is 5,096,, 484 and the total new contract is 30 million and change as you can see from the memo. and the funding sources, majority is local county funds, 95.3 percent, then a small percentage, 1.8 percent is from state funding and almost 3 percent is federal funds. that gives us the total of 5,096,000.

in terms of the funding and where it came from and how it came about, last year the board of supervisors had a food security hearing in april. and there were a lot of needs identified including food security needs. and with that, you know, what they found is that there were a lot of low income seniors and adults with disability that needed food supplements, food assistance, because they don't have the means to be able to provide themselves with nutritous meals with their income level and we know healthy nutrition is a part of being able to stay healthy. as a response to that hearing, the mayor as well as the board of supervisors provided daas with a large amount of add back money and the amount we are

adding to the meal services and home groceries is 4.8 million. and this is to help expand the home delivery meal program because we currently have a little over 200 people on the waiting list. with this funding a large percentage of this funding is to help expand the home delivery so we can reduce the waiting time and our goal is to serve people with emergency needs within two to five days -- i'm sorry -- yes, two to 5 days, then those with other more moderate needs within 30 days. and if you can look at the, want to give you some highlights of where some of the increases are with this funding. so with this funding, with the

congregate meal program for seniors, congregate program is for seniors who are mobile and able to go to senior center, they have access to other activities that can help them stay better connected, reduce social isolation. with this funding we are able to add three new sites. director hinton had mentioned there was a grand opening for the west portal center this week. that's one of the new sites. another new site is actually going to be in presidio serving mostly veterans, the majority would be veterans even though it is open to the public. and then another site in the bayview neighborhood. also we will be expanding the champs program, increasing the number of clients that can be served at the current site and we are looking at adding a second meal champs site and self-help for the elderly is working on identifying a second caterer or restaurant that can help partner with that.

in total, compared with our base line, we are going to be increasing the congregate meals to seniors by 37 percent. that's about a little over 66,000 meals annually serving 1670 seniors annually. the other portion is that we are increasing the congregate meals to serve adults with disability. again we are adding 3 sites that can serve them. these are the same sites that serve the seniors. and with this program we are increasing service by 74 percent. this is about 14,000 meals annually serving another 265 adults with disability. the third program we are increasing is the home delivery of service to seniors and we're increasing this by 24 percent. in terms of meals this

represents close to 280,000 meals a year, serving another 400 unduplicated consumers. and the other program is also expanding our home delivery meals to adults with disability, increasing that by 71 percent, which represents a little over 69,000 meals a day, serving an additional 140 unduplicated seniors. last but not least we are significantly expanding our home delivery groceries program. home delivery groceries is basically providing supplemental food to an adult with disability or senior that's low income with a grocery bag that's usually worth, if it's serving one to two people, the bag is about $30 value, market value, and includes of course fresh fruits

and vegetables, staple items like bread, grain, pasta, rice, also protein items. this program we are actually, when i say significantly increasing it, we are adding a little over half a million dollars to expand this program from our current base line level. that's about 240 percent increase. we will serve another 900 unduplicated seniors annually serving about each year 30,000 grocery bags weekly. so this program is not only cost effective but it actually can serve, you know, can keep a lot of seniors and adults with disability and providing them with access to healthier food. now, the memo includes a table with the different awards that

we are recommending for the two fiscal years, 14-15 and 15-16. and also then what the total contract amount for that particular contractor. so what i will do is go through the congregate meal contractors first and then the home delivery meal contractors and so on. because it is a lot of contracts that we're going to go through i'm going to highlight some of the things where it's you know, changed and what's different and then entertain any other questions that you might have if that's okay. okay, so i will go through the first one, we're recommending for bayview hunters point multi purpose senior services for the nutrition of service for seniors at congregate meal sites for the period of july 1,

2014 through june 30, 2016 in the additional amount of $109,176 for a revised grant total amount not to exceed $1,042,186. the major increase with this funding is they are adding a new site. hunters view is in the bayview area and also they are expanding the current congregate meals at both their sites. rose is a parks is expanded to 5 days a week now and also western addition senior center, the very popular -- they are 7 days a week and they are expanding services there as well. are there any questions? >> just one. >> commissioner sims. >> this is an example question so you can probably answer it

broadly for me but in many of these proposals there is a one-time equipment item as part of the grant. can you talk philosophically about that as opposed to just the general program. >> where there are sites, especially if they are adding a new site or significantly expanding their program, like their home delivery meal, we don't expect them to fund raise to get the program going, you know, fund raise for a truck or a lot of large equipment items. so it is essential to meet all the nutrition program requirements. we do allow that as part of the negotiation and we do identify that separately from the regular kind of operating expense. it is considered a one-time only because these steam tables or other kind of large refrigerators, other things, don't need to purchase it on a regular basis but it is a start-up cost. >> thank you. >> any other questions? okay,

hearing none, i will call for the vote. all in favor of authorizing to modify the grant with bayview hunters point senior service say aye. opposes? ayes have it so the motion carries. next, c, requesting authorization to modify the grant agreement with glide provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal sites during the period of july 1, 2014 through june 30, 2016 in the additional amount of $85,693 for a revised total grant amount not to exceed $386,564. could i have a motion to discuss? >> so moved. >> second.

>> thank you. before i go on to the glide one i did bring the updated congregate meal chart sites with me if that is helpful for you to be able to see where all the meal sites are. i will give it to the secretary. so currently we actually have a total of 48 different congregate meal sites located in different neighborhoods in the city, different supervisor districts. and the site actually has the type of meals that they provide, the meal hours, the contact phone number, et cetera, and we do share those with the public, with the consumers when they call, find out where things are. okay, back to glide. so for glide we are recommending an additional amount of $85,693

with a revised grant total amount not to exceed $386,564. with glide this increase will basically increase our service with them from 5 days a week to 7 days a week. there is definitely a lot of demand for a breakfast program and in the past we just didn't have the resources to be able to expand and meet the demand and this allows us to do a little bit of that. are there any questions? >> commissioners? >> linda, actually i should have asked the question first. i realize that you have kind of add back money to different sites, okay? i'm just wondering why the latino group and the japanese group did not have any extra money. it's just a question.

>> sure. this is a notice of funding availability request. the process is open to any nonprofits that are out there. we did have a few contractors, current contractors, who did not submit a proposal so that's the reason why we didn't recommend anything. we didn't get any requests of proposal from them. >> i have a general question. i'm just looking at the number of meals for 2015-2016. it looks like it reduced for glide. >> for glide? the reason for that is that the fiscal year 15-16 is slightly lower. we have for the award for 14-15 is actually 47200, then for 15-16 the award is 38,000. we didn't have as much money for fiscal

year 15-16 because we don't have any confirmation of the additional state and federal dollars that we have. the add backs included some of our one-time only increases from state and federal funds. that's the reason why it's less. >> i'll get it later. any other questions? seeing none, i call for the vote. all in favor of approving the glide agreement with glide, could i have a motion to approve? all in favor, aye. opposes? ayes have it so the motion is carried. d, requesting authorization to modify the grant with jewish community center of san francisco provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal sites during

the period of july 1, 2014 through june 30, 2016 in the additional amount of $8,460 for a revised total grant amount not to exceed $344,688. could i have a motion to discuss? >> moved. >> second. >> okay moved and second. you are on. >> so for jewish community center they submitted a proposal to slightly increase their contract in order to handle their overservice. they are slightly overserving our current contract level. the site is popular. they have their own central kitchen to produce the meals and seniors really love it so they are seeing attendance going higher

and this is an opportunity for them to request additional funding to increase the service level in order to serve the additional as of seniors they are experiencing now. so the increase is compared to other centers it seems lower, it's because they have they did ask for a lower amount. it is only one site for this program versus other contracts have multiple sites. >> are there any questions? >> commissioner. >> it's a general question again. this is one time only money. what if the money run out? >> this is actually on-going for two years. this contract amount 14-15, 15-16. >> two years. >> correct. our nutrition contracts currently is for 3 years so started from 13-14 through 16, so we have an option to, depending, we can extend the contract for another year or we might go out for a

complete rfp, we haven't come to that point yet. so your question is that --. >> what's going to happen when there is no money? >> with all the increases? >> right. >> i just would say that the add back money from the board is the bulk of these dollars. there's a very small portion that is one time only from the state. we have been experiencing one time only from the state each year, we just can't ever know the exact dollar amount. the money that came to the add back from the board, though, is on-going dollars, so those, the vast majority of these meals, will stay in place. but as linda has said, we do go out to periodically so within a few years we will be out to again. but we're not expecting to see a downturn in these dollars in either place. >> i'm just wondering where the commission office has any

plans or intent or desire to go and search to do some, to find some money from the rich tech people. i'm just asking a question. >> currently we have many providers who actually serve more, many more meals, than what we provide dollars for. and most of our, the folks that we work with have been great at raising dollars and so many times when you see an organization going past what we would fund that's because they have fund raised dollars to provide those extra meals. but, again, we will really be working to make sure that we, even though you see it in this contract, we will be working very hard to make sure that we keep the meal contract amounts in place as much as humanly possible. >> thank you. >> also wanted to add that the board of supervisors have

passed a resolution to end hunger by 2020. that's a huge order. but that does speak to some commitment on their part to provide continued funding to be able to address and improve the food security for the most vulnerable population. >> commissioner sims. >> i'll wait, we have this on the table, right? go ahead. >> any other questions? seeing none, i call for the vote. all in favor of approving the jewish community center of san francisco say aye. opposes? ayes have it and so the motion is carried. item e, no item. f, requesting authorization to modify the grant agreement with on lok day services provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal

sites during the period of july 1, 20 foerb through june 30, 2016, in the additional amount of $15,672 for a revised total grant amount not to exceed $1,534,016. could i have a motion to discuss? >> moved. >> second. >> okay moved and second. you are on. >> thank you, for on lok day services, the additional grant amount of $15,672 is to help the agency actually to keep their weekend and holiday meal services continue to stay open. costs has gone up significantly and they were struggling it keep their doors open and this was their proposal to request for additional funds to be able to

continue keeping the weekends as well as holiday program open. and if you look at the unduplicated seniors it hasn't changed from the previous years because they are serving these people already. without this additional funding they would have to actually reduce their service. are there other questions? >> commissioner sims. >> this is a case where it's an expansion of an existing service, 15,000-plus dollars, $4400 of that is a one-time only equipment cost if i'm reading it correctly. wait a minute i may be on the wrong one. sorry, i'm one behind. >> yeah, there's no one time only equipment here. >> does that answer --. >> there is not.

>> there is not, not for on lok congregate meal. >> okay, so it was called out in the original grant, but not in this add back. is that right? >> that's for last fiscal year 13-14, which we're not touching. it's already passed. >> i understand. >> thank you. >> any other questions? hearing none i will call for the vote. all in favor? aye. opposes? ayes have it and so the motion is carried. g, requesting authorization to modify the grant agreement with project open hand provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal sites during the period of july 1, 2014 be through june 30, 2016 in additional amount of $191,950 for a revised total grant not to exceed $3,871,415. could i have a motion to discuss?

>> moved. >> second. >> okay, you are on. >> thank you. the total recommended increase of $191,950 is for the two fiscal years and the major increase is they are starting a new, providing a new service at the presidio and this is operated by swords to plowshares and it is serving veterans. also they are expanding services at some of the existing congregate meal sites that are overserving. are there any questions? >> i'm trying to see where that site is located. it's not the swords to plows. >> it is swords to plowshares, it's identified as such. >> where is that on the

presidio. >> on the list? oh, the address. >> yes. >> it is 1030 gerard road and it is right in presidio. currently actually, swords to plowshares, they have their own lunch program that we don't oversee, we don't, you know, but the program finds that these veterans really had a need for additional service so they are partnering with project open hand to be able to provide a dinner meal for these seniors. >> i'm a veteran and i was stationed out at presidio so that's why i was looking for it. >> oh, okay. >> okay, thank you. is there any questions?

hearing none i will call for the vote. all in favor? opposes? ayes have it and so the motion is carried. h, requesting authorization to modify the grant agreement with russian american community services for the provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal sites during the period of july 1, 2014 through june 30, 2016 in the additional amount of $19,816 feir a revised total grant amount not to exceed $607,585. could i have a motion to discuss? >> moved. >> second. >> you are on. >> for the russian american community services the total increase of $19,816 for the two fiscal years is to enable them to actually accommodate and serve the additional seniors they are already overserving.

the center, it is one site, the food is cooked at an on site kitchen, it is very popular, they have two seatings in order to accommodate all the seniors and adults with disability who wants to go there. and this additional funding will allow them to continue to be able to serve those additional consumers who are attending the center. are there any questions? >> commissioner sims. >> linda, at the other site i see that you have a nutrition component compliance, but russian do not have. >> yes, with a few of our contractors who are smaller such as the russian american community services, also jewish community center, jscs they actually getting the nutrition services through a city-wide city-contracted dietitian and we have a contract with candace

tang and she provides the nutrition monitoring, the nutrition information, et cetera, to those centers. >> any other questions? seeing none i will call for the vote. all in favor say aye. opposeds? ayes have it and so the motion is carried. moving on, i, requesting authorization to modify the grant agreement with self help for the elderly provision of nutrition services for seniors at congregate meal sites during the period july 1, 2015 through june 30, 2016 in the additional amount of $395,279 for a revised total grant amount not to exceed $3,780,335. could i have a motion to discuss? >> second. >> been moved and seconded. you are on.

>> the additional recommended amount of $395,279 is for two fiscal years and it helps self help for the elderly to open the new center at the west portal senior center with a new congregate meal site, also expanding the champs program because it has been very popular, the demand has grown significantly. we have increased the contract to be able to enable them to serve more seniors and adults with disability with that program. with the additional goal of having a second champ site also in the budget so they are working on that hopefully, you know, in march they will be able to get a second restaurant, champs site going. so the bulk of the funding is for that with a little bit of one time only for start-up costs for the new center. are there any questions? >> any questions?

commissioner katie loo. >> how many meals have they served here, do you know? >> more recently our data seems to be they are serving about 50 people a day on some days. other days it's higher. i think staff from self help for the elderly might be able to give us more accurate information. i was there actually this monday after the grand opening at west portal, the senior center, our colleagues went to lunch there and we saw during an hour 25 seniors already there having lunch. but the program is definitely growing. >> i went there and eat myself too, okay, and i was asking the highest number they have served it was 75 or something on one day. >> yeah. >> so it seemed like to be very, very popular.
