progress or the puck cut out of the progress no basis to say that what this resolution a anniversary binding resolution and if you look at the language it uses supervisor peskin if you've seen this based on your comments this resolution in and of itself this is unlocking the gates and opens up the water shed for recreational assess on its own we're opening up tomorrow and that's not accurate you, you look at the language non-binding policy resolution what it does that urges the puc to do xyz and urges the puc to consider banning assess and urges the puc to evaluate the feasibility of expanding assess it urges the puc to work and

collaborative in san mateo county and other agencies it urges the puc to consider possible routes possible routes for public assess so this is no a resolution in and of itself just throws on the impasse but to push the puc to continue others process that frankly is already started to consider and elevate ways to expand public assess in a public way the puc is required to do not a super process for the puc and the public will absolutely be involved in helping to flush out the results of that evaluation and that collaboration. >> in terms of money again, this resolution does not for the

puc force the puc so spend money and not presuppose who is going to be financially responsible one 19, envision with the san mateo community in terms of bearing the costs in my view this should happen not only on the puc funning the san francisco public works itself is not a reservation agency but charged with the water supply and others responsibilities and does a superb job discharging those and the puc understandably expands the recreation assess because the puc core responsibility is managing the water supply we at the board of supervisors has to do to take

into account the recreational needs of public so ultimately that is why we're considering this at the board of supervisors so colleagues i think this as begun introduce a significant progress and supervisor avalos in proposing those amendments we've adapted bent over backwards those amendments don't add new assess i could see if all of a sudden this dramatically increased why a continuance it appropriate what it does is soft else's not a supplemental and not a substantive amendment is it so scaling back so colleagues i don't see a reason to keep this

going. >> so i won't belabor this but on the board of supervisors 10 months and this is the fit it's been before this committee and not discussed by the board. >> there's no question this area of policy has come to the board of supervisors every decade or so for the last generation and maybe we can have mexico pay for it and if we send to the full board with the currentcy involving the public and hearing from our puc staff is not extend i will respectfully descents. >> thank you very much

>> (clapping.) >> in 2013 san francisco legislators newsom agreed to allow the reciprocate of our soft story buildings those building house one and 20 thousand resident a program of that collect requires extensive outreach and this continuation of that process who is here and bill graham the

perfect venue so in 2014 we have the first earthquake retrofit a huge success we're repeating this model what we've done it put together venues that are time professionals and contractor are financing institutions a other services that help people comply with the retrofit and as you can see the thousands of members of the public their assessing over one hundred vendors to comply with the ordinance or make improvements on their property i came to get specification information and puck h picking up information if you don't know what twaur doing i take it overwhelming. >> we're pleased a critical mass of people are keying into knowing their relents and understanding what had are the next steps to take and they're figuring out who to talk to not

only the contractor by the mustards and the architect and the structural engineers and getting the full picture of what options are necessary and being pro-acti pro-active. >> so i'm very pleased to see the soft story buildings 99.9 percent complies the highest of the program of this scale of the history a citywide effort high blood pressure in every stretch of san francisco to understand real risks associated with earthquake and those are universally agreed on. >> at some point you need to gather information i'll be talking to another engineer to come out and take a look at it and basically get a second opinion i'm for second and third opinions it is inspiring to see all the property owners that want to do

the right thing and for proactively figuring out what the solutions to get them that. >> what is amazing to me here we are over two years of first retrofit fair and at the time we are rh2 out to contractors to help us and reaching it out to design professionals that soft story buildings is in any and people understanding how to comply now it is different an industry that springs up as a result of the - their professed and gotten the costs down with lower financing options and these are defined and now the gene progression and have the buildings are buildings and the compliance we understand the 2020 one and 20 thousand san francisco's 15 messenger of our population will live in a retrofit building those people buildings or lives in buildings

with 5 or more residential building is soft story and wood frame and built before 1978 that house that one and 20 thousand san franciscans. >> san francisco is being the leader in getting in done and as you may know los angeles passed their retrofit law two months ago at the sort of taken san francisco's lead on the one and tenth anniversary as the residents san francisco this is a road map to the city and going to give us us plan are these to keep folks here on a disaster and steps to build a resident waterfront by 2020. >> this involves more than one and 80 individuals and over 60 nonprofits and other companies

this is a huge plan and what are the challenges we realize that people are concerned about climatic change, sea level rise and not only the affiliated hazards but things hike you're our amp infrastructure and consumed by social and other things we see this in society everyday and how we try to mitigate those are ultimately a direct result how resident we are after earthquake other issue out of the strategy of the concept after a major earthquake of keeping 95 percent of population here in san francisco that's the single best thing to help a equitable recovery to keep people here keep people back to work and kids in school and a residents of normal after a disaster. >> alliance energy in our

partner undertook comprehensive bid process we interviewed a half-dozen of folks who wanted to have a part of our soft story buildings are ordinance so alliance energy project programming is a clean assess energy a special financing that is done using the taxed authority of local multiples and one of the interesting features the loan is tied to the property not the vital if an individual didn't have good credit but it is another option for people not able to comply to find another avenue the assessment is actually places on the property and the builds for in that come literally a line item on the tax bill that's how you pay off the segment and tax. >> 20 or thirty years is all paid up front there are

advantages your property tax well it is important to give people on option and many private banks that provide loans over a are shorter term we wanted to create a longer pay back term. >> i think the next step for property owners after at the create themselves to take the plunge and quit the working downey done and have works of work done right of the right rest of the property owners can understand this process across the city. >> we need to do it. >> it is safety you know that's the bottom line safety. >> earthquake safety a everybody's responsibility that is providing the resources that people need to get done if you want to know more of the resources as a san franciscan please visit the
