we're pretty steady. we are still -- because the ones weç÷ñ?ñ?ñ? 0ó( increase, increase in the service systems thathave we're providing. we're also looking at that in terms of the supportive part. that may increase. we just heard that conversation not long ago. i have had conversations withc our housing, staff that are concerned about that as our residents age. their staffing needs maybe different. >> there is one more thing that i fail to point out, which i should for the record. because of the size of it, if you look at the i.t. initiatives in your packet, there is a significant amount of revenue

about $25 million worth of revenue that's budgeted with a corresponding transfer out expenditure. we've been working with the mayor's office and the controllers office on what the multiyear strategy is for funding the ehr program. they agreed to allow us to budget essentially $25 million worth of revenue over and above what we had previously anticipated with the transfer of that revenue into the ehr project. what that really does for us is it allows us to -- if we do better than anticipated on our revenue, it allows us to capture some of those revenues into the project rather than going through the normal close out process that you would have if we did not budget those revenues. that gives us another point of reflect that we have not had in the pass. if the city can afford to do so, we have the option of capturing

those funds for the project. >> any public comment? >> i have not received any request. >> i wanted to make several observations which are important. to bring also the question of as i understood it the responsibility of the commission for the last 20 something odd years. commission is responsible to have fiscal oversight and once we get the budget, as you know we're responsible to work together to work the administration and if there are -- as we have had in the past deficits where we're required to make additional cuts, commission is first off in those types of activities. the mayor, our current mayor has taken a different approach

towards budgets also. it has been a much more collaborative approach. we had the opportunity to submit a budget to the mayor. previously there was a hard deadline but the items that went towards the mayor were those in which the administration and the commission would then agree to. at times he would work that out. then of course it became the mayor's budget and at that point, the mayor often the mayor whoever the mayor was, would massage the budget as the mayor chose. mr.wagner is quite well acquainted with in process coming from that side of the house. i'm sure he would agree this is really a much more collaborative effort in which the commission and the department and the mayor are working for a budget that becomes the mayor's budget as it's submitted to the supervisors. who then of course takes their

shot at various components. they either add or subtract different things and then we start the cycle again monitoring the budget we get and then working on next year's budget. that's kind of -- i thought you had a pretty good snapshot. it's kind of a little bureaucratic but it does allow for input. in this case, i watched a number of budgets -- as a matter of fact when the commission started, one of the very important aspects of the commission was to be sure that we had credibility over at city hall. both in the mayor's office and the board of supervisors. it's taken many years. then we were able to develop that and we've been building on it. this is probably the best iteration with mr. wagner here and the relationship with a mayor in which we've had.

now the ability to create even essentially an enterprise fund for a particular enterprise. barbara has been able to get the mayor to agree to fully fund [inaudible]. gvhj now this last iteration -- the summary you've given, i have to commend you. i think part of it was driven from my request to look at trends and look at it in larger segments than just simply line items. which are necessary. then, also you've taken now each by the various activities and we've now been able to see the significant changes in the two year budget process.

i think you saw the questions from the commission being much more meaningful. not just on specific programs but the overall trend of where we're going. i think your department your division there, your leadership that needs to be commended. i took an extra three minutes to thank our department for really putting this together and gaining the credibility of both the mayor's office and what we hope will also be the board of supervisors. jn? as our last function today then, we need to actually pass these last initiatives over to the mayor'si5f >> if i could thank you for those comments. i want to recognize all our management within the department. they held from asking from things knowing that the electronic health record i got

that correct, to really focus on that. they really changed directions of what they thought they were going to do in the budget to really have a big focus. i do want to commend our managers of all of our areas who have been through financial discipline. that's one of the goals i've had as director, to ensure that we have financial discipline to ensure that we have the basic foundation of what we need as a delivery system. i do want to thank all the managers for all their work. >> well said. that certainly is the commission also. we now have the ability to make a motion to pass this last iteration of the budget to the mayor's office. somebody wishes to make a motion. i see a motion. and a second. any further discussion? if not,u pkú all of those in favor

please say aye. all of those opposed. so the mayor's budget, if final budget proposal is unanimously approved to go to the mayor's office. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> commissioners move on to item 11 has other business -- which is other business. updated version of committee assignments. >> the commissioners assignment is before you before the coming years. we thank our commissioner taylor-mcghee on the community and public health committee. dr.pating will lead that at this time. all the remaining assignments

are as noted. >> only thing for the commissioners, the time of that meeting changed from 1:00 to 4:00. in case you want to drop in. >> okay thank you. >> that started this month's meeting? >> i'm sorry? >> will that start at this month's meeting? >> that starts now. correct. as of this announcement. is there any other business anybody like to bring under this item? if not we go on to the next item. >> next item is the joint conference committee report. commissioner chow is in front of you as a note for the april 28 2015 meeting. >> i think you saw the agenda and we did discuss all the items

on the agenda. ??ñ?ñ?ñ? also =rñ?ñ?reviewed the medicine rules and closed session.ílñ?ñ?ñ? if any of our commissioners also want tobeñ?ñ? add anything, that would be fine. any other joint conference? >> no i have(÷ñ?ñ?ñ?ñ not received public comment for a request for that item. >> next itembxñ?ñ? please. >> we're at adjournment vote. >> a motion for adjournment is in order. i see a motion!cñ?ñ?%k< g!l@gvag p!ca )n┌@yjauwif

opportunity to launch in partnership with mayor lee and several other partners that i will name just a moment an exciting opportunity to engage young people. the goal while the job and internship it's is really important and valuable. part of what i'm trying to help and support is to connect the dots of opportunities to connect their pursuit and at attainment and the future for their lives and the support that you provide through a job or provider or leadership is wonderful. let me please one more time [ applause ] now if you think back to your first job, you will know that it took some special person, an employer, a supervisor, someone who

mentored you, you know the value and importance of that opportunity for young people and many of us are in rolls that we are in today because of that first opportunity and that's what we want to have this program create for our young people. since 2012, we had the opportunity to create over 19,000 opportunities of jobs and internships. that's another yay! moment [ applause ] so the other thing that this project is a reflection of is great partnership of public and private non-profit. now i need to say some names to say thanks. the mayor and the office of children and families, maria, there is maria. the economic workforce and development, thomas myers, and our san francisco unified school district and i

know mcdonald is here. there is our school district partnership back there. thank you. [ applause ] and then of course to my team members at united way again being critical partners in this whole initiative. in addition to those partners we also have a wonderful set because we are reissue in this regard in in san francisco the partners getting them ready for the opportunities that we create for them. i need to name them very quickly. we have chalk, community youth center of san francisco, garden scholars, development agency, myers san francisco and of course young community developers. let's give it up for our non-profit partners. [ applause ] then we have partners who in addition to were appropriate in creating

jobs and internships and opportunities in their space were also gracious in creating partners. let me thank them quickly, we have pg & e, j.p. morgan chase erns and young. let's thank them. [ applause ] and there are several other sponsors that are named on screen as well as on our boards around the room. we appreciate all of them. we also have a national partner. that is the city's foundation and cities for financial empowerment because they chose san francisco as a city that they are providing funding for work space opportunity for youth in san francisco and the department of youth and families. let's thank city's foundation. [ applause ] then one more special shot out,

back in the 11th of april we had a resource fair where we brought 500 people and brought them opportunities for resume review and mock training and how to interview and how to make yourself the brand. it was a fantastic experience. one of the core sponsors and representative in the room that day was starbucks. starbucks brought over 80 volunteers into that space to support us. and then have the audacity to hire over 60 young people that day. let's give it up to matt green and starbucks. [ applause ] so we are well on our way towards creating wonderful opportunities for young people. 4 years ago, president obama issued a challenge to corporate america said we needed to create

opportunities for disconnected opportunity youth and while the challenge was the corporate america, mayor lee raised his hands and said we are a city committed to give young people a world class education and with that vision we were able to launch youth jobs plus. it's my privilege to welcome mayor ed lee. [ applause ] >>mayor edwin m. lee: thank you, eric. it's great to work with you and united way. good morning, everybody. >> good morning. >> it's wonderful to be here iechlt -- i want to thank jay shu for opening this up. he and louis herrera have been great partners, louis is a

great public librarian. these two individuals at the civic center had an at some point to work with me at city hall to celebrate what we are about to in the next month, the hundredth year anniversary of our city hall. i want to know, yeah, it would be great to be at the library, at city hall. i would welcome to you this room because jay would be the first to welcome you to say you are the live version of our terra-cotta soldiers this year. i wanted to use this room because of it's beauty as a way to say to indicate my deep level of appreciation for the sponsors, for the employers for the foundations, the community based organizations, our own city

agencies and departments are all coming together and collaborating with me about a goal that is very near and dear to me and that is employing our youth. this is so important and you know already how much that i spend with the unified school district on in fact we are going to spend a lot on the school district. we are having that announcements made to the tune of $255 million to our school district. you get a precursor of our support to our schools. i have made it a passion for our youth. it's a story that i wanted to share with you. annually you hear from me often and i know employers that have been with me hear me often but just as passion each year. it

takes that special moment. that one quick minute. sometimes close your eyes because for me it's a long ways away from remembering who helped me get my very first job. it wasn't something that i was spoon fed. it was something that i try to earn. in fact i will tell you my very first job wasn't really, i was living in seattle a pretty urban setting. my very first job was a non-urban job. actually i went on a farm when i was in junior high school, middle school grade student. i got people to connect me up with what they were doing. i thought that would be fun. i can work in restaurants, i can do all the stuff that i see everyday, but my very first job was on a farm and that's where i got to drive a truck. i destroyed about 25 cabbage

heads in trying to deal with a truck. and i worked with a farmer whose every fourth word was a curse word. mr. tanaka, he was great for instructing us properly for how to get our bushels full of beans and strawberry and corn. i learned a lot. i learned discipline, i learned open farm area. i know that in san francisco we have a program and very strong policy and support for urban agriculture. we have a gardening program that reaches out to many of our transitional age youth to allow them to use the incredible farm that we have up in san bruno area and train them in skill sets and yeah, a lot of people use language that is kind of

urban street language, but in that association withinw an employer where you are earning and you are having fun because your comrade is doing the same thing. i learned to have fun on jobs and learned to respect everybody's work and be part of a group setting. these are skill sets that create that basic discipline. think for a moment on your very first job, your great employers of san francisco or wonderful non-profit leaders or you city agency folks that are going to help me create thousands of jobs for this year and year around. think back on your first time and kind of the association that you had with people, the quality that allowed you to think that you are going to work your way up. you are going back to work your way out. you are going to work your way forward with your education.

the kinds of skill sets that you want others to have or to enjoy. that's what i want to bring back on this today's moment when we ask you to make a commitment with us on a variety of things. because jobs plus has been something we thought about through and through. it isn't just the job. it isn't just getting the paycheck. what i'm emphasizing this morning is you go everyday and i get to kind of do this on weekly basis with my tours of businesses and try to find the people that enjoy this around them and allow them to be successful. this is the work environment we want to create. we have the goals of folks that got a lot of barriers to get them not only skill sets. what we have done

before this day we rick's help, with the school district's help with the technology group that's helped is that we forged an opportunity to gain some skills in the application process. putting your resume online. how to tie a tie very quickly in a competition. how to look someone in the eye and say i'm so and so and i want to help your company be successful. these are disciplines that go along with just getting a paycheck. it's how you present yourself. it's how you tell your story about who you are. it is about how to gain that supervisorial support to be successful in the workplace and create a foundation for you and your family. i have a broad vision. that is that these jobs will help our youth not just occupy time and space. it is

job skill sets, association with each other on the workplace. it's understanding everything from the chain of command to how you treat customers to how you really can add value to what a company is attempting to seek by creating opportunities there. and in this job, my staff really worked hard to make sure i wasn't just numerically oriented. this morning, also i have permission to tell you that last year we set a goal of 7,000 jobs and we exceeded that goal of 7500 jobs with everybody's help. [ applause ] >> but we want more and more is the stories about people's transition. how jobs affect them and their families. how they use those jobs to

really find avenues of success for them and their families. this is incredibly important to any city in the entire state of california but for san francisco, i think it's a special story. i think we have special employers who are regional, who are forward thinking, who want that diversity to be reflected in their workforce and who use that diversity to gain a huge international market share of good policies that we want to have, and that today, i have to say that most companies who work with us are pretty successful. and more than the bottom line, they are helping me create a prosperity of which we can share with many struggling families who find it more difficult to forward the city and i'm doing my part. it's not just the job situation here is one aspect of wh
