he people so you know how are we're going to choose the people and how is it relating to the president obama out issue if you're looking for people to join it sound like an opt in and opt out again, just that sign up process so i'm talking to people about the program sometimes, people want to know how to sign up and others do i have to do it so thank you very much. >> thank you for your comments. >> jess hackman. >> good afternoon. i'm jess ackerman the conservation primaries for the sierra club just a couple of comments one

commissioner president caen thank you for your comments we would like to speak about the skweld schedule we hope you'll say that. >> this is the time of the year. >> great excellent and also we're excited to see that the official notice is out in case you decided to approve the raised at our next meeting instead of the next meeting you're scheduled for . >> thank you enterprise staff for doing that and making that possible to move that part of the schedule up and then also i wanted to speak a little bit to the folks president obama up to the green option after you initially enrolled it in the program that's something we've worked on in the past they and last year did a program they worked with community-based nonprofits and had a confusion

to see how much people to have on their e-mail list to opt up and offer a cash prides for nonprofits the sierra club didn't take money from government agencies we do a lot of political work so it is a way to give back to further advocate for community choices it allows us to get more folks to opt up the community choices is about climate action the more people that opt up the better in addition to our staff and amazing agencies and sf e that does amazing outreach you have a ton of folks that are committed to making this program work so we'll work with you in that program when it is launched and that will be in january 2016

thanks. >> jason. >> hi jason freed the exclusive officer for glasco you're talking about the marin program and the stuff open the presented side first of all, the staff g did a job to launch the program various people if the room wasn't the usual suspect a lot of information was shared i've talked about with the staff and they won't do one discussion but drill down into the specific issues where this the flow chart to making sure we're hitting the items so the staff can have a good discussion and everyone can't be included it is important i'm looking forward to those meetings as far as what their presenting it is a good

program it follows the nexus study and to try to get to the green issue stuff and if i expletives more than what a g l held but hopefully, this will be useful and helpful i've had a lot of discussion about the green tariff and how many people go into it once launched a lot of people wanted to be included they found more power to bring the people in it is not as wildly but one they see more people when they are marketing it and when not martha you don't see people move up so one the key things a consistent marketing plan and another thing to look at perhaps a thirty megawatt program to toward the

city you can opt up citywide for the first customers you'll ended up with a higher percentage of the deep green that will be citywide and a lot of people in the city that point the hundred percent renewal when you look at a thirty percent megawatt if you're going citywide you will have more i don't recommend that you want the opt out for the city it is a smart move but set aside a large portion of money for getting it out that much more quicker you want to make sure you're not over buying four that amount but ways to mitigate risks and once you figure out hey, we've sold-out going back to the market and getting more people so increase the percentage of that deep green over time that percentage will

go down you'll reflected all the people to get into the program you've got to be realistic what our options are and i guess i'll end my comments there. >> thank you. >> are there any other speakers for this item? commissioners any additional comments >> i additional jason is there was there anything additional i actually wanted to hear. >> i hit the major parts making sure we're really concentrating and focusing on the marketing program for the 2k50e7 green that's a lesson we've learned from marin the more marketing it is a double-edged sword the more marketing reminds the people that don't want to be in the program want to on the out you

actually is in newspapers an opt out but getting the people that want the deep green going into that there is a trade off how do you do that credible not necessarily hurting the overhead goal awhile you're also trying to get people into the deep green product so who was suggested this the sierra club made about 2k3w0u9 and having you know doing contest how many individual groups donate money you have to take the money from some place bus that's a good way and also the city you don't know i don't think you've hired the presentation glasco presented a presentation and worked with city to get people into the the solar project the solar share

program to get people more solar a lot of people were outside the city and wanting to get solar on the rooftops there is a way to use the program to figure out ways to merge and get the ideas and merger for the best product the advocates and your staff and all of us will come up with a way to get people into the deep green to stay within the other products as much as possible same prissy like to say we'll have the megawatts we want the pg&e they will be the first one to opt out i assume a lot of the people in the city will come out but get as many as we can this

is marketing once you get past the best wishes the procurement signed we know exactly how much the power will cost we'll at this point know the administrative costs this is what we're looking for a firm price to launch and going out and marketing you'll see me saying all the stuff neatest to be done as quickly as possible. >> the only 09 question so on the build out does glasco have an opinion about the need for clarity in the build out. >> when you look at the nexus report i hammered the folks they basically said you need to get our rates known and get our

procurement prices and your administrative costs all things in place then go out and do an estimate for a price until you know exactly was our product looks like and with what type of program are you offering a go solar 24 to 20 percent rebeats some up to 60 percent that diagrams how much jobs and clearly the more private sector and the less rebate you can stretch our dollars that creates more jobs but if you don't it too much you end up not having a product for it is too expensive you need to get to that point that is another reason we push

for power procurement to dope dive into it i courage us let's have the discusses looking at the promises but until we get that enter next san francisco feel we should do it but getting the bigger picture is easier to price anti. >> for barbara. >> all the information your collecting on the dark green can you get information on the question of opt up versus opt in and whether it is more strategic to do an opt up program than an opt into the higher program. >> oh, barbara hale i'll explore that issue i want to be clear the state of california cca program is an opt out.

>> i'm talking about for that the dark green. >> we can't includes between the two but. >> but the opt in. >> yeah. opt up and opt in is the same either way the state requires a customer to be allowed to opt out of the program opt out is the nature of the program program. >> for - that's for the default product. >> i'm saying that is dark green is the opt out it is the big revenue generate our in mile-an-hour run for a dark green i losses some of the light green customers they say oh, my gosh i want to be in other program so be sure to opt into the dark green or strategic go

after the people that are already enrolled they care about the program and target those people straeven and say we have a better product for you does that make sense. >> we'll get for information. >> we so to move on we have other things to do already next item loophole. >> item 9 the consent calendar be enacted by one resolution in the form or forms listed below. if discussion is desired, that item will be removed from the consent agenda and will be considered separately. 9 a perusal of the amendment increasing the amendment by 6 thousand for a termination of
