1:30 pm
ices appeal to serve the same number.. they are struggling -- the city has stepped up in the last two years while the state has struggled and trying to figure out how to do things right. they have not figured it out yet. this year were not too sure. though for getting close the advocates out there on getting close to getting the state to understand its needs. so, i know that the support that is needed these last two years continues to be needed for this year. what are we doing about that? gleefully supporting a piece or not? that is the first question. >> in terms of the title five contractor provider supervisor yee?
1:31 pm
>> correct. >> historical we have had problems on both sides of the house with childcare state cuts. two years ago the providers came to us and to first five, we work with the mayors budgets office to reallocate some are bad backfill money that a been allocated previously which could not be earned because of the complex weight the contractors need to earn their money and i think you heard about some of that from ms. rutherford in april. to reallocate some of that to augment with these contractors get from the state, and to augment some of our other funny sources, like weight supplement program the wages, at 12% for two years. the agreement was that would be a two-year program , and we ask the providers to continue to advocate at the state level. they have successfully along with her colleagues around the state for
1:32 pm
the past two years been able to get a 10% increase, 5% last year to look site as of last night.5% again this year. we propose the 6%. we felt that to do the program for two years without knowing woes could happen at the state level, and also, without knowing what our planning process would result in in san francisco over the year, it made sense to do another 6%,, and we did ask for that. it is included in the mayors budget it is a relocation of the backfill dollars. >> the other issue, then, as you are aware of is the need to support those families that have children that are zone three. of course -- san francisco does much better than most places but it is serving a small percentage of those in need. what is a strategy around that intuitive trying to do as
1:33 pm
well as we have with the preschool-aged? >> i think we have not completed our fiscal analysis yet, nor are planning process, but i think i can fairly safely predict they will need more money to meet the need. we do fund imprint top of their subsidies and to the sum of the state money that comes through first five, but will be discontinued, the child signature program. some augmentation to infant toddler programs to bring them up to the level of quality the leasing developed in the preschool for all program. the child signature program funding is coming to an end, so it is very apropos that were going to be engaged in this planning process because we need to look at what we have and then how to address the quality of the
1:34 pm
needs across the spectrum without in any way wondering on the quality we been able to establish for our four year old. i think it is going to be a challenge. >> it is going to be tough. but we need to do it. as mr. -- stated earlier, love in terms of homeless families and it really is about income we do not have that income. as you know, as a lot of people know, if you try to put your -- to pay for infant care was people -- it is hard on most college tuitions for people that are low income, we really need to step up a little bit because there is no way. thomas like a cycle where they can get out of it unless we somehow interject those solutions. i believe having subset is care is a primary solution.
1:35 pm
>> yes. the office would agree. i think a thing for this body to keep in mind is that we are seeing wide increases in subsidy availability at the state level, but those are distributed along a formula that will continue to favor san francisco less overtime, given the fact actors of the formula, which look at income of the city and the number of children. so, yes, we still have a very significant population of children under three who cannot access the subsidy currently. >> you did not mention anything about the facilities at all. i know that your office -- about it. >> yes. >> i been pushing the holds of elements of childcare facilities and looking not just what we know about but what we anticipate in eating in the future with 20,000 more people. there has got to be more 0-5 in your population. yet, it seems we need to start
1:36 pm
talking about it now and planning for that instead of getting caught off guard. a few years ago, oh my god, i would get with where we are but these extra 5000 [inaudible]. what is your thinking about that? how can we sort of move that agenda? >> i mean, we know we do not have enough infant toddler facilities. that -- currently. if there is any growth in that age group will be significant challenge. i mean, the developers of these and the impact these have worked very well in terms of our ability to be able to do some both construction and renovation. i mean san francisco was in the lead on that many years ago, and that continues to be a resource, but for really good to be able to fund the need for
1:37 pm
facilities even assessing family child care providers, with facility needs for a growing population, would have to come up with funds to do that. we do not have currently in our budget. >> thank you for your work and i know it is going to be a challenge. the people have to realize that, unlike school-age or most of these there in school and even though poorly supported by the state, the lease their support for that whereas the 0-5 population there is no such mechanism. one of the things about this the beauty of the cities they do care about art 0-5. it will continue to fight for those issues with you. >> x >> supervisor mar >> i want say i agree with supervisor yee. the moment ops spread throughout the
1:38 pm
neighborhoods that provide quality care for our youngest infants and toddlers and children i want to say also i totally agree with left of the wages of childcare workers. the wages plus program dealing with the state challenges which are so critical to treat the childcare staff and teachers with professional as professionals because i do think they do tremendous power over every day. i also just want to say to that, mr. the transfer of the public education enrichment funding or prop proposition eight funding from first type to the office of early care and education as a former first five commissioner and also school board president to, i see how the oc to office is the right place for an sound like is a good transition with the senior staff for the first year and also the second year. so, it is a seamless hopefully transition but i see how critical as mayors come here tomorrow from all over the city, universal

1:55 pm
$10,000 a year per commission succeed him as founding in 1996, to a $15,000 commission. so, really it would represent the same 50% increase to those individual artists commissions. to be our first priority that million-dollar enhancements. it also look to increase our creative space grant. today, those at $60,000 for tenant improvements, upgrades, fire safety needs, but given the escalation and construction costs in the city, we would hope to increase those grants up to $100,000. again for small and midsize organizations with budgets under $2 million. so we are very excited about that and has been in a budget look for to hearing from the committee at our july committee words and education grants committee but exactly how we could allocate those funds to meet the needs in the arts and cultural community. next month ensure an overview of the capital
