receive vital services and treatments that they so much need and deserve. and on an on going basis. on behalf of all of community housing partnerships, and the 91 navigation center individuals here at this site, we are so excited and honored to introduce our mayor mark farrell. [applause] >> thank you, gale. good morning, everyone. i want to thank you all for joining us here today. as we all know, san francisco and the rest of our country, and cities around our country, are dealing with an opioid crisis hitting our streets. it's unfolding in our neighborhoods and in our sidewalks in front of our very eyes. fighting this fight means that we not only have to use existing programs but if we're really going to solve the issue and make a dent, we have to be creative. we have to come forward with new policies and new programs that will make a difference on our

streets. and that is why we're here today. to announce a significant investment in a new, addiction treatment program with our street medicine team. the street medicine team has long been a part of how san francisco seeks to deal with the health of individuals on our sidewalks and in the streets of san francisco. the street medicine team is on the front lines every single day here in san francisco. bringing service and treatment to those who need it here in san francisco. the small but vital team works every single day to care for those were in a traditional clinic or hospital, it's simply not the answer and it's not working. their work is rooted in compassion and acceptance and meeting people where they are. including streets, our shelters and our navigation centers here in san francisco.

with this new investment of over $3 million a year, we are adding 10 new staff and increasing resources to focus on the drug addiction on our streets of san francisco. and to address the opioid epidemic, right here on the streets of san francisco, the team will be expanding the work that they started with the pilot that started last year and expanding this program across the entire city. i am proud that san francisco is going to be the first city in the nation to take this approach. san francisco is a leader in so many areas and once again, we are stepping up with professionals that know how to get job run right. leaders willing to take bold approaches to address the issues confronting san francisco residents and those that need our help on our streets.

by providing this medicine out of a traditional clinic setting, we're expanding our outreach capacity and taking every opportunity to help those individuals that are on our streets suffering from drug addiction. the program, which sometimes i have trouble saying, is an important part of our larger strategy here in san francisco and with our department of public-health, to address those struckelling with addiction. which includes detox to residential treatment services. this investment, let me be very clear about this. this investment will ultimately help save lives. and it will improve the conditions on the streets of san francisco. i want to thank a number of people who have brought this program to light today. first of all, director barbara garcia from our department of

public-health. [applause] >> dr. sven for his leadership and ingenuity. we knew he would get the loudest applause and he deserves it. our department of homelessness and their partnership in leadership as well. and all the other providers and healthcare leaders that are behind me here today that are working so hard every single day in san francisco. to get those that are on our streets with the help that they need. whether it's homelessness or drug addiction or the other issues plaguing those on our streets, our goal in san francisco is to be compassionate and get people off the streets, on to their own two feet and on to better lives. thank you for being here today and with that i love to turn it over to director garcia for remarks. [applause] >> good morning. thank you mayor for your commitment to the effort of

treatment access for those suffering from opioid addiction. i'm barbra garcia. i want to acknowledge all of the d.p.h. staff here that work every day to heal and support san franciscans who are in need of healthcare. i'd like to give them another round of applause. [applause] we know science has proven, for a long time, with many personal stories and the medication assisted treatment works. addiction is a challenge of a lifetime treatment and recovery happen and people do get better. mayor lee, a year and a half ago, asked me is there something else that we can do? we need to reach people on the streets who are clearly suffering and in the grips of addiction. what else can we do? we know that some of our traditional approaches of addiction treatment, that is, waiting for people to be ready

to come to us to seek help. it doesn't always work for those suffering from addiction and especially if they are homeless. all of our services are voluntary and we have to develop care relations to engage people into care and it does take time. but i really want to thank dr. barrie sven who took this challenge for mayor lee and myself and add this service to his existing street medicine team. medication assisted treatment. to the streets where he goes daily providing care to the homeless people in need. that is how this program was born. in the fall of 2016. we have served over 95 people since then bringing medications to fight opioid addictions directly to them on the streets. by expanding the program today, we are first taking a big step towards our ability to combat the opioid addiction in this city.

the new funding will allow us to directly serve 250 new individuals but we also know that we can serve more once we get those engagements and those relationships because in all of our clinics, we can access the service and medication. so this program is a big step forward to saving lives, lost to heroine, fentanyl and methamphetamine addictions and overdoses. homeless people who use drugs are especially vulnerable and our health system is adapting going directly to them with compassionate outreach and expertise. we're able to help a group that gets missed in the traditional structure of visits and appointments. our low barrier medication program is just one piece of a city-wide effort to increase treatment. we are also providing emergency rooms at sucker burg general hospital and implementing a new addiction consultant service within our hospital to ensure all physicians at the hospital

have access to treatment experts for their patients. the doctors from this service are also here today. so again, i want to thank mayor farrell for supporting all of our efforts to address those with substance abuse disorders and continuing our efforts to save lives. with that i'd like to introduce dr. barrie sven. [applause] >> well, thank you very much, mayor farrell and director garcia and the city of san francisco for the opportunity to do this. i have been working with people experiencing homelessness in san francisco since 1991. my philosophy in this work is do what works, do what is needed. i didn't come into this work with a preconceived notion of what it is that is going to work.

when we see what the problems are, then we develop what are the possible solutions? it doesn't feel like it's a great innovation to say if people are not able to come into a clinic let's go out and see them where they are. i think what feels like an ininnovation about that is many people have the pre conception or the stereo type that a person experiencing homelessness doesn't care about their health. a person with a substance use disorder isn't very concerned about their health. what we see, day after day, one person after another, is that people are deeply concerned about their health. they may have more compelling concerns. where are they going to eat? where are they going to lay their head down and if they pend on drugs, where will they get drugs to prevent themselves from having severe and awful withdrawals. if we're out there with our team and this is absolutely about a

team, not about me as a single physician, doing something, if we're out there as a team we're able to meet people where they are. we see and talk to people about the harms related to their substance use. we also see what the damage to the community related to that substance use is. and we're talking to people about treatment. you've heard the term bupinorfine. that is our medication that we are primarily using. we're also often recommending and referring and assisting people when it's appropriate, to get to methadone treatments and we're using another medication to treat opioid use disorder. having these medications have

changed my attitude towards seeing heroine users. earlier in my career, not that i didn't like heroine users, but i never felt like i had something to offer. now they're my favorite patient. i have something that can immediately change your recollection with the drugs you use and change what your circumstances are. many people who we see have heard about it and they haven't had the opportunity to talk to medical providers who have expertise and get prescriptions. the basic idea is bring it to people where they are, get people stabilized, and then they're able to move into those next steps because when you are strung out on heroine, when you need to use or else have awful withdrawals, every four to six hours, it's really hard to do

anything. what we need to do is provide something that is at least as compelling to people as what is happening to them on the streets. medication is absolutely necessary. human contact, treatment and caring for people is the other thing necessary. with those things in place, and this program expansion, is allowing us to do that, we have the opportunity not only to reach the 250 additional new patients but that really has an amplifying effect. when one person is on the street felfeeling hopeless and sees thr buddy getting help, that is a tremendous boost to that person being able to take maybe that one more step to say, maybe things aren't absolutely hopeless, maybe there's something i can do.

maybe that other person doesn't even have an opioid use disorder. maybe they don't use heroine. maybe they have a problem with alcohol? maybe they have a problem with mental health disorder. seeing that hope where someone is hopeful. the most positive, most effective thing i've seen in this program is one person telling another, hey, i got this medicine from the street medicine team. i saw dr. evan, i saw one of their nurses. that person saying well, i can't believe it. you were the least likely to succeed guy. you were the worst-off person. you are the person with the worst addiction i know and now you are telling me you are not using? that's tremendous in building hope and that's what we need to do as we address the problems that we see. so i'm going to introduce chris, one of our initial low barrier buprenorp hine patients.

someone who will tell you about his experience. so thank you. [applause] >> good morning. my name is christopher rafino and to piggy back on what dr. svens said, one rainy morning, as i got out of jail, and i contacted dr. sven, via the mail and telephone and to other people, i did not want to use anymore. i had tried many, many attempts unsuccessfully of shaking my addiction to heroine of 28 years. nothing worked. i tried everything. residential programs, everything. well, dr. sven met me out in the rain with my bicycle in hand and the clothes on my back and spoke to me for 25, maybe 30 minutes.

he said look, i'm going to do this for you. dodo not let me down. i don't believe i have. three and a half years ago, that occurred right over here. three blocks away from here. my life has changed dramatically. i am a substance abuse councilor myself. i work in a facility across the bay. my life has changed. i have everything back i lost. i owe my love to dr. sven and buprenorphine. out that i was loosing hope you but i got it. i'd like to introduce someone from the homeless outreach program or the homeless program, jeff >> thank you, chris. [applause] >> my name is jeff with the department of homelessness and supportive housing. i want to thank you all for being here today. i want to thank the department

of public-health. homelessness is a complex problem and it requires the partnership amongst many city departments and individuals and people experiencing homelessness to resolve this issue and this is just one of many steps that we need to take. we're very excited about expanding this pilot that we started with d.p.h. many, many months ago. i believe it was in late 2016. i want to thank mayor farrell for his leadership in expanding this important program. so thank you again for being here today and we'll take questions over at the side. thank you.

>> san francisco city clinic provides a broad range of sexual health services from stephanie tran medical director at san francisco city clinic. we are here to provide easy access to conference of low-cost culturally sensitive sexual health services and to everyone who walks through our door. so we providestd checkups, diagnosis and treatment. we also provide hiv screening we provide hiv treatment for people living with hiv and are uninsured and then we hope them health benefits and rage into conference of primary care. we also provide both pre-nd post exposure prophylactics for hiv prevention we also provide a range of women's reproductive health services including contraception, emergency contraception. sometimes known as plan b. pap smears and

[inaudible]. we are was entirely [inaudible]people will come as soon as were open even a little before opening. weight buries a lip it could be the first person here at your in and out within a few minutes. there are some days we do have a pretty considerable weight. in general, people can just walk right in and register with her front desk seen that day. >> my name is yvonne piper on the nurse practitioner here at sf city clinic. he was the first time i came to city clinic was a little intimidated. the first time i got treated for [inaudible]. i walked up to the redline and was greeted with a warm welcome i'm chad redden and anna client of city clinic >> even has had an std clinic since all the way back to 1911. at that time, the clinic was founded to provide std diagnosis treatment for sex workers. there's been a big increase in std rates after the earthquake and the fire a lot of people were homeless and there were more sex work and were homeless sex workers.

there were some public health experts who are pretty progressive for their time thought that by providing std diagnosis and treatmentsex workers that we might be able to get a handle on std rates in san francisco. >> when you're at the clinic you're going to wait with whoever else is able to register at the front desk first. after you register your seat in the waiting room and wait to be seen. after you are called you come to the back and meet with a healthcare provider can we determine what kind of testing to do, what samples to collect what medication somebody might need. plus prophylactics is an hiv prevention method highly effective it involves folks taking a daily pill to prevent hiv. recommended both by the cdc, center for disease control and prevention, as well as fight sf dph, two individuals clients were elevated risk for hiv. >> i actually was in the project here when i first started here it was in trials.

i'm currently on prep. i do prep through city clinic. you know i get my tests read here regularly and i highly recommend prep >> a lot of patients inclined to think that there's no way they could afford to pay for prep. we really encourage people to come in and talk to one of our prep navigators. we find that we can help almost everyone find a way to access prep so it's affordable for them. >> if you times we do have opponents would be on thursday morning. we have two different clinics going on at that time. when is women's health services. people can make an appointment either by calling them a dropping in or emailing us for that. we also have an hiv care clinic that happens on that morning as well also by appointment only. he was city clinic has been like home to me. i been coming here since 2011. my name iskim troy, client of city clinic. when i first learned i was hiv

positive i do not know what it was. i felt my life would be just ending there but all the support they gave me and all the information i need to know was very helpful. so i [inaudible] hiv care with their health >> about a quarter of our patients are women. the rest, 75% are men and about half of the men who come here are gay men or other men who have sex with men. a small percent about 1% of our clients, identify as transgender. >> we ask at the front for $25 fee for services but we don't turn anyone away for funds. we also work with outside it's going out so any amount people can pay we will be happy to accept. >> i get casted for a pap smear and i also informed the

contraceptive method. accessibility to the clinic was very easy. you can just walk in and talk to a registration staff. i feel i'm taken care of and i'm been supportive. >> all the information were collecting here is kept confidential. so this means we can't release your information without your explicit permission get a lot of folks are concerned especially come to a sexual health clinic unless you have signed a document that told us exactly who can receive your information, we can give it to anybody outside of our clinic. >> trance men and women face really significant levels of discrimination and stigma in their daily lives. and in healthcare. hiv and std rates in san francisco are particularly and strikingly high were trans women. so we really try to make city clinic a place that strands-friendly trance competent and trans-welcoming >> everyone from the front

desk to behind our amazement there are completely knowledgeable. they are friendly good for me being a sex worker, i've gone through a lot of difficult different different medical practice and sometimes they weren't competent and were not friendly good they kind of made me feel like they slapped me on the hands but living the sex life that i do. i have been coming here for seven years. when i come here i know they my services are going to be met. to be confidential but i don't have to worry about anyone looking at me or making me feel less >> a visit with a clinician come take anywhere from 10 minutes if you have a straightforward concern, to over an hour if something goes on that needs a little bit more help. we have some testing with you on site. so all of our samples we collect here. including blood draws. we sent to the lab from here so people will need to go elsewhere to get their specimens collect. then we have a few test we do run on site. so those would be

pregnancy test, hiv rapid test, and hepatitis b rapid test. people get those results the same day of their visit. >> i think it's important for transgender, gender neutral people to understand this is the most confidence, the most comfortable and the most knowledgeable place that you can come to. >> on-site we have condoms as well as depo-provera which is also known as [inaudible] shot. we can prescribe other forms of contraception. pills, a patch and rain. we provide pap smears to women who are uninsured in san francisco residents or, to women who are enrolled in a state-funded program called family pack. pap smears are the recommendation-recommended screening test for monitoring for early signs of cervical cancer. we do have a fair amount of our own stuff the day of his we can try to get answers for folks while they are here. whenever we have that as an option we like to do that obviously to get some diagnosed and treated on the same day as

we can. >> in terms of how many people were able to see in a day, we say roughly 100 people.if people are very brief and straightforward visits, we can sternly see 100, maybe a little more. we might be understaffed that they would have a little complicated visits we might not see as many folks. so if we reach our target number of 100 patients early in the day we may close our doors early for droppings. to my best advice to be senior is get here early.we do have a website but it's sf city clinic.working there's a wealth of information on the website but our hours and our location. as well as a kind of kind of information about stds, hiv,there's a lot of information for providers on our list as well. >> patients are always welcome to call the clinic for there's a lot of information for providers on our list as well. >> patients are always welcome to call the clinic for 15, 40 75500. the phones answered during hours for clients to questions. >>

>> sustainability mission, even though the bikes are very minimal energy use. it still matters where the energy comes from and also part of the mission in sustainability is how we run everything, run our business. so having the lights come on with clean energy is important to us as well. we heard about cleanpowersf and learned they had commercial rates and signed up for that. it was super easy to sign up. our bookkeeper signed up online, it was like 15 minutes. nothing has changed, except now

we have cleaner energy. it's an easy way to align your environmental proclivities and goals around climate change and it's so easy that it's hard to not want to do it, and it doesn't really add anything to the bill. -

>> supervisor fewer: this is may 18, 2018 regular meeting of the san francisco local agency formation. i am sandra lee fewer chairman of the commission. i am joined by commissioner cynthia pollock on my left and hillary ronen on my left. i am also joined by alisa romero the clerk.

my apologies for starting late. i was in another committee meeting. madam clerk, do you have any announcements? [agenda item read] >> supervisor fewer: thank you. madam clerk, can you please call item number two. [agenda item read] >> supervisor fewer: okay. do any of the commissioners have any changes to the minutes of either the april 20 or the may 2 meetings? seeing no changes, i will open this up for public comment. are there any members of the public who wish to comment on item number two? seeing none, public comment is now closed. is there a motion to approve the minutes? yes. moved by commissioner ronen, seconded by commissioner pollock. without objection, these minutes are approved. [ gavel ]. >> supervisor fewer: madam clerk, can you please call item number three. [agenda item read] >> supervisor fewer: thank you very much. i believe we have a

presentation from mike himes from the san francisco public utilities commission. >> good afternoon, commissioners. mike himes, director of cleanpowersf for the sfpuc. pleasure to be here with you this friday afternoon. i know that you are pressed for time. i do have an update for you. i'll keep my remarks fairly brief. i did distribute a few slides. i can run through them. fortunatel fortunately, there's only a few of thing. just before i do that, i want to start by letting you know as we sort of do with all of these updates, we continue to serve our customers successfully in the city. we've got about 81,000 active accounts. that's the number that i reported previously. opt out rate has stayed the

same. it's about 3.2% cumulative since we launched. our opt up rate to supergreen is 4.3%. went up a little bit since we last met, and i think as we've been reporting at previous meetings, we're in the process of our next phase of enrollment, and we'll be adding principlely commercial accounts in july, but we'll be in total enrolling around 27,000 new accounts starting july, and we've actually commenced notification. so last week, the first batch of our first notice, which is required under state law was issued. we'll be sending the first round of notices throughout the month, and then, notices will continue to flow to customers, four in total, over the next four-month period. so that -- that's really kind of the official kick or tstart

the notification process. and that's enrollment. i wanted to also mention on the regulatory side, just one side. there's a lot going on over there, but one of the more important things we deal with is the pcia, which is the exit fee. and i wanted to provide an update there. hearings in that proceeding concluded last week, and so the next step in that case with the california public utilities commission will be case briefs which are submitted in the month of june and then we're expecting a proposed decision to come out of the california puc as early as the month of august. that's a pretty aggressive schedule, so it may get delayed a little bit, but that is what has been reported to us from the commission. so let me jump over to the slides here. as you know, for some time,

we've been doing procurement to acquire power supply to serve our citywide enrollment. this -- this slide here shows you what our power supply contracting looked like against our projected demand before we started this process, so that black line in the chart represents our forecasted annual sales for cleanpowersf. and the bars underneath that, those sort of gray bars representing the existing contracts we had. so you can see there's the -- if we were fully contracted, the bars would be at the same time spot as the line, right? so i just wanted to show you that prior to starting our contracting process, we had a lot of contracting to do. that's really the message of this slide. and this slide, the additional

blue bars indicate the power supply that we have acquired over the past several months to serve the customers we're enrolling in the program. so you can see, for 2018, we're almost 100% contracted for our forecasted -- our expected sales. in 2019, we're 90% contracted. and you can see those percentages track the -- the portion of our forecasted demand. i just wanted to show you this, that that's the progress we've made in terms of acquiring the energy we need to reliably serve the customers we're going to be enrolling? i also wanted to show you this, which is our projected power content for 2018, so this current year. and the way the energy supply content is tracked in the

electric sector in california, it's done on a calendar year basis. so we actually just reported out our 2017 power content as delivered to customers, and i'm happy to announce that for 2017, the program was 43% california certified renewable energy and actually 100% greenhouse gas free for our green product, so that's our default product. i do have to attribute that partly to the fact that it was a very good hydro year, so the hetch hetchy system produced a lot of additional hydropower that we could deliver to our clean power ser cleanpowersf customers. it was a wet year. that hydro condition varies over time. so this was our expectation, especially given this year was about normal, a little bit below normal. but that's an 81% ghg free

portfolio to our green product, and of course 100% to our supergreen. so any ways, this is what our portfolio, the renewable energy or the energy content will look like as projected now for the end of 2018, and we're getting close to that 50% mark that we're aiming for. and this is for reference, so what this chart shows is our targets over the next 12 years. so you can see with the green segment of the bars, the renewable energy content increasing each year. we have a target that was set by mayor ed lee and adopted by our commission to meet a 50% renewable energy target by 2020, and you can see that reflected in this chart. and then, the blue

represents -- you know, we call it additional greenhouse gas free. that could be renewable energy or it could also be hydroelectric power. but the overall goal here is to squeeze out any conventional power over that timeline so that by 2030, the city -- the electric supply served to the city by cleanpowersf is 100% greenhouse gas free. this is to give you a context of where we're going in the future. and those are the slides i prepared. i do want to add a little bit more detail to the contracts, and then, i'll wrap up. couple of more things that are exciting for me to announce, and that is the general manager of the puc under authority granted by the board and the commission entered into two

long-term contracts, a 22 year purchase agreement to take energy from a 100 megawatt -- to be constructed 100 megawatt solar facility that will be built in lancaster california to meet our customer demand. that plant is expected to come on-line in the middle of 2019. and in addition to that, a 15-year power purchase agreement with a developer to construct 47 megawatts of wind in the tehachapi region of california, which is mojave. and what they're doing it taking down wind turbines that were built in the 1980's and replacing them with larger more efficient wind turbines, and that contract is expected to start delivering at the end of 2020. so both of those contracts will

create new jobs in california in the clean energy sector. we are pulling together these statistics, and the puc will be making that announcement soon, but i wanted to share that news. we're excited to say we're going to get some steel in the ground as a result of this commitment that the city's made. and then one other announcement with regard to contract, the puc entered into a 4.5 year contract to purchase energy from the geisers. we're happy to also sort of enhance the local content of our power supply as we embark on the citywide enrollment effort. >> supervisor fewer: thank you. >> yeah, and i'll stop there, but i'm happy to answer any questions. >> supervisor fewer: thank you. any questions from colleagues?

no? okay. seeing none, let's open this up for public comment. are there any members of the public who would like to comment on item number three? mr. brooks. >> just one minute. >> supervisor fewer: you can have two minutes. >> okay. eric brooks, san francisco green party, our party san francisco, and californians for energy choice. so the -- this looks pretty good. it's a -- i think it's a nice, short presentation. one thing that, you know, on slide five, the projections of us getting to all renewable and greenhouse free looks really good, but now, i want to start pushing the envelope again as a climate crisis activist that -- that that actually is good, but it's not where we're going to need to be by 2030 if you look at transportation. so by 2035, not only do we need 100% of our building electricity to be renewable and

greenhouse gas free, but we also need transportation to be the same. and that means that we're going to have to expand what the sfpuc's doing as far as public power goes and expand cleanpowersf so that it's producing enough -- these are producing enough electricity to power the entire transportation system in san francisco and replace all the buses that currently run on biodiesel, which is bogus and actually worse for the climate crisis. we need to change -- we need to be ready for that to happen in 2035. so i just want to flag that for lafco and for the sfpuc to start thinking about that future because we need to get this, and those numbers that -- that are on this look good, but they won't quite get us to that point. and then, another thing i want to point out, if i can get the overhead -- yeah.

so mike showed this graph, and i think it shows something really important, and that is that we're able to have competitive prices by just doing short-term contracts for renewables. pg&e and others claim they have to have these 20 and 30 year time frames, that they can then charge us -- [inaudible] >> supervisor fewer: thank you, mr. brooks. are there any other public comment speakers for this item? seeing none, public comment is know closed. [ gavel ]. >> supervisor fewer: there's no action to take on this matter. madam clerk, can you please call item number four. [agenda item read] >> supervisor fewer: thank you very much. mr. gobel, i believe you have a presentation for us. as you take up, i'd like to take a moment to acknowledge

our new financial officer, mr. brian gobel. you've hit the ground running and i'd like to tell you we're looking forward to working together in this body. miss calvillo provided tremendous support to this commission in the last ten months since losing our staff position, and i'm so grateful for her work. with that, mr. gobel, i'll turn it over to you. >> thank you, madam chair and commissioners. i am here to present your final lafco budget for fiscal 2018-'19. before i get into the final budget, though, i just want to review your expenditure status. a lot of these numbers with similar to the numbers presented to you at the last two meetings by former interim administrative officer angela calvillo, but they have been updated for you today to reflect the new expenditures

since your last meeting. so i'll show you the first slide here is lafco's expenditures as of may 15, 2018, the available balance is just under $220,000. as you know, this mou between lafco and the puc has been extended through june of 2019. here are your expenditures to date -- i'm sorry. this next slide is the lafco general fund balance. this slide shows the general fund appropriation expenditures and year-end balance for lafco from 2007 onward, and we have set aside a reserve of about

$45,000 or 15% of the annual budget, and again, these expenditures and balance are updated as of may 15, 2018. the current available balance is around $82,000. here is your ex-pentures to date. on this side, lafco spent about $130,000 to date this year. that includes the separation payout for the executive officer -- executive director salary and benefits. legal services cost approximately $43,000. service costs by other department such as sfgovtv, and others around 13,000.

th and then, on the cca work order side, the cost charge as of may 15, 2018, is about $2300 for the executive director's salary and benefits that occurred prior to his separation. a refund from nce for an incomplete portion of the study, and then -- mce for an incomplete portion of the study, and then $450 for the executive officer cca work. so here is your proposed budget for 2018-19, and i've included a rundown of each line item in your memo. none of these numbers have really changed a lot since the april 20 budget presentation. this amount includes the estimate for executive officer services, and i would like to recommend today that you approve the final budget for fiscal 2018-19 in the amount of $273,000. that will be used about $24,000

that we can return to the city and county of san francisco. of course the commission reserves the right to retain the full amount of $191,000 in fiscal year 2020. one thing i want to note is there is a chance to change the amounts by the committee for the hiring of a consultant. i want to thank former administrative officer angela calvillo, and if you have any questions, i'm happy to answer them. >> supervisor fewer: commissioner ronen? >> supervisor ronen: i'm just wondering, given the sort of focused -- and i'm looking forward to hearing the presentation today about our work around creation of a municipal bank. i'm wondering -- well, and the likelihood that we're going to need some specific studies, given how complicated this whole endeavor will be.

i'm wondering if we just want to have a line item in our budget for, you know, anticipating that we're going to do a special study rather than returning money to the general fund. and i don't know what the bureaucracy looks like to get it back, but i just think it's going to be very likely that we're going to need that money for a special study. so i'm just curious what my colleagues think and what you think and what counsel thinks about my suggestion. >> supervisor fewer: sure. commissioner pollock? >> commissioner pollock: just. i appreciate this conversation happening here. i just want to thank mr. gobel for hitting the ground running in two short weeks, preparing this -- the budget and information for us, because this is good -- a good discussion with today being the deadline to pass our budget, i do -- i do think that we should have something in there t
