>> maybe it is line 20? >> yeah. neighborhood clean and green. is that also your priority? i'm not sure where that came from also. >> i don't believe so. >> i haven't heard anyone talk about it. >> neighborhood clean and green? >> i was a little surprise it was in their. >> city wide street cleaning priorities including pitstop expansion programs. so that was resolution file number 18. >> is this for just cleaning street's at dbh? is it greening?

is it planting plants? >> give me a second. i don't know. i will make a note and come back to you. i don't know the answer to that. i don't know who has asked that, either. but i do know it looks like it is still in compliance with the resolutions that we passed for the third priority, right here. the street cleaning priority. we will get more specific to you to that. >> thank you. >> is that it? >> ok. anyone else? ok. that is where we are right now. ben rosenfeld. [laughter]

you are standing up. i thought you wanted to say something. ok. ok. [applause] all right. we will find out. at that number 20 could be representative from one of the members that are not here on this body. we will see what other supervisors said. we will take a pause on that one. ione. in order to keep this conversation moving, i don't see sophia in here. so i want to ask -- bend you know what the additional asked that the supervisors added, what that figure is, and where we are a? >> i don't, supervisor. but my suggestion would be to take a short recess so we can update the list with those totals and see where you are at the moment, if that's helpful to the committee. >> that's helpful to me so we know. we are in the process of trying

to get together on this. >> yeah, i think that would be helpful to further our discussions just to know what this whole total thing looks like. >> so we will break and get the total figure, and it is my understanding we should be able to have peace and be able to present this to the mayors. >> i can't read it. >> is that your understanding supervisor stefani? >> i do support supervisor stefani's increase for domestic violence. >> we have added it. >> we are adding the delta between the 1.2 million per year and what is allocated already and that would be what god will add into that. >> that is correct. and people added and came the record and we wanted to increase what that figure is.

i wanted to get some understanding when we come into session. when we come back into session we will discuss what the figure is and what i would like to do is be able to take this total and comprehensive list to the mayors to ask them to fund this. >> ok. >> ok. we will be on recess. thank you. good morning ladies and gentlemen. i want to welcome you back to the budget and finance committee. we are coming out of recess. i have my full committee with me. the clerk of the board is still -- clerk of the board still elements linda wong. so, we have come to a point

where we are in a agreement and we were able to successfully reach agreement with not only committee members, but also both mayors. i think this is the first time in history ever that we've had to do this type of a negotiati negotiation. unfortunately, all good things must come to an end and that includes this budget season. i'm very excited. i would like to make a motion. may i have a second to take public comment on items one and two? all right. seconded by catherine stefani. we will take that without objection. come on down. public comment. on items one and two. items one and two. somebody better get down here and say something.

thank you. >> thank you. i do want to recognize that this has been a long journey into the night. i appreciate the effort that everyone has put in to this process. i do have to say that we do need to rethink our commitment to public input and limiting public testimony to one minute, it is not the way to do that. i again, appreciate the fact that often times members of the public are not polished speake speakers. their nonprofessional advocates. their testimony can often be like a disjointed, connected, scattered, but it is compelling

and powerful. and absolutely necessary for public servants to hear from the public and for the perception of welcoming the environment for people and for people to feel that their government really wants to hear from them. it is challenging for us in the community to actually convince people that their stories mapped or capped their voices matter. their perspectives matter. their lives matter to people in decision-making positions. and when we limit that, ability, it really cast a pall on how everyone feels about their own government. i hope that we can take that seriously. i also feel that it's an opportunity for this legislative branch of government to think very seriously about leveling

the playing field between the legislative branch and the executive branch. particularly on budgeting. at least those two items. to be more receptive and opening talk at welcoming. >> thank you. [laughter] >> between the legislative branch, the executive branch. >> thank you. your time is up serve, seriously. any members of the public? public comment is closed. folks, i would like to make a motion to combine items one and two into -- excuse me, items one and two into items three and four. may i have a second query seconded by supervisor sheehy. can we take that without objections? we have object -- without objection, that passes. second motion i will make is to amend the appropriation ordinance and salary ordinance to reflect committee members changes as indicated in the summary entitled board of

supervisors budget spending plan. may i have a second query i will take that. >> i know we want to get out of here. but i just, if we can jump a little bit more, i want to be able to look at the budget before we make any decisions on this emotion -- this motion. it will maybe take 10-15 minutes to make sure that we all have our eyes adopted nt's are crossed. first of all. let me back up. thank you chair cohen for getting us to this place. and the last discussion we had

was the feedback that you brought to the mayors. i know why kate just doing it with one mayor would be tough, but doing it with two mayors is going to be tougher. and i really appreciate that. i don't want to minimize that effort that you have made on behalf of the committee. i do feel like, before we approve everything, just give us a few minutes to, everything. and it is not a matter of anything about distrust, it is a matter of making sure nobody made any mistakes. >> no preamble needed. please take the time. >> if we can hold off just ten minutes for us to, everything, i would really appreciate it. >> sure. ten minutes.

>> supervisor he has given me the green light to. everything looks good? >> i think everything we discussed is in here, and very appreciated. let me, ok.

oh, yeah. i may have brought this up before. are we meant to have services on line 29. that needed to be added. on 929, mental healt 929, mentas for homeless should be homeless families. >> anything else? >> the numbers look correct to me. i just think that's the only thing i saw. >> ok. i want to look to the controll

controller. that looks like, in terms of the titling of the category, the policy area, how do we make this correction? >> is a small correction we can make on behalf of the committee. it is consistent of our read of the intent here. we can make that change for you. >> you can make that? >> yes. >> is that satisfactory to you? >> that's all i have. >> ok. all right. we are going to read into the record on line 29. a request to add the word family, making the phrase homeless families. excuse me, families. ok. i will continue making my motion. motion to amend the appropriation ordinance and salary ordinance to reflect the committee members' changes as indicated in the summary of the budget spending plan, as well as the small change read into the record. may i have a second?

>> second. >> seconded. this motion passes without objection. thank you. i would like to make a motion to accept the mayor's technical adjustment as proposed by the budget director. that is in a letter before you, ladies and gentlemen. thank you. seconded by that. we will take that without objection. and i would like to make a motion to authorize the controller to make adjustments necessary to implement the committee's actions and balance accounts. >> seconded. >> seconded. and we will take that without objection. and i make a final motion to forward items three and four on today's agenda, as cemented to the board of supervisors for the july 17th meeting with, of course, the highest and most positive recommendation possible. seconded.

we take that without objection. all right, ladies and gentlemen. i want to say a few final remarks. i want to thank my legislative aide, sophia.

clean power sf is san francisco's key way of fighting climate change by renewable energy and offering it to san francisco customers. i'm from the san francisco public utilities commission. the program came about with state wide legislation in 2002 to enable people to take more control over supplies. i first heard of the program when the organization was advocating to launch clean power sf. what i'm most excited about, it's going to bring 100% renewable energy to my home and reinvest into renewable energy infrastructure and jobs. i had gone to a lot of street fairs and heard from the staff at the san francisco public utilities commission to sign up for clean power sf even before it launched.

>> we learned about clean power sf because our sustainability team is always looking for clean operations. linkedin is the largest online network. there are about 530 million members using our site. in this san francisco office there's about 1400 employees working in roughly 400,000 square feet. >> after signing up for the program we heard about the san francisco program and learned they had commercial rates and signed up for that. i'm the co-owner of the new wheel electric bike shop. we opened this store in 2012 and the new wheel sells and services electric bikes. 11 people work here in san francisco and our store is about 2,000 square feet. electric bikes are fantastic for

transportation in the city, they're clean and green and you get places faster than any other form of transportation. it amplifies the power, it doesn't replace it. it makes it easier to get places by bicycle and it's so enjoyable and environmentally friendly way to go and more convenient in san francisco. >> clean power sf requires two products, green, 40% renewable and competitively priced with pg and e. for those who want to fight climate change more, 100% renewable at $0.02 per kilawatt. >> i decided to go with the super greens, after finding it only to cost about $5 more a

month to have super green, that's a no-brainer, i can do that. >> we were pleased that clean power sf offers the super green 100% for commercial entities like ours and residents for the city of san francisco. we were pleased with the package of services for linkedin and now encouraging our employees who have a residence in san francisco to sign on as well. >> clean power sf buys its power from renewable plants that feed the energy directly into the grid. >> there's a commitment to sustainability throughout the entire organization and this clean power opportunity reflects that. >> one of the wind farms we use is the shilo wind farm and that is large enough to be able to provide energy for up to 200,000 homes. >> our mission is

sustainability, even though our bikes are minimal energy use, it still matters where the energy comes from and part of our mission in sustainability is how we run everything -- run our business. having the lights come on with clean energy is very important. >> the sunset reservoir has solar panels that take up about four city blocks covering the reservoir and the solar power generates energy for city resources and clean power sf for residents participating in the program. >> it was easy to sign up for the program, i went online to cleanpowersf.org and i started getting pieces in the mail letting me know i was going to be switched over and it just happened. when i pay my bill, i still go to pg and e and i don't see any difference between now and a year ago.

>> sign up online, just have your account number ready and it takes about two minutes and there's nothing to install. no lines are getting connected to your home. all the power goes through the existed power grid. >> we haven't had any problems with the switch over to clean power. >> it's super easy to sign up. our book keeper signed up online, it took about 15 minutes. nothing changed but now we have cleaner energy. >> we see clean power sf as a key strategy to meet renewable energy goal, we have a goal of 50% renewable energy by 2020. currently we have enrolled about 86,000 customers across the city. about 20% of what we hope to serve in the future and in the next two years we'll offer service to all san francisco electricity customers. >> an easy way to align your environmental responsibilities

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. >> joining clean power sf is one of the easiest ways to fight climate change, receiving cleaner energy at low and stable rates, you're helping to support a not for profit that helps influence the energy grid and produce more production. >> i would encourage any business to seriously convert to the clean sf service. it's good for environment, business and the community. >> you can sign up online our call and the great thing is, you'll have the peace of mind that you're doing your part in your household to help the environment. ♪ ♪

>> good afternoon everyone. good morning and afternoon. i am the director of international trade and commerce in the mayor's office. it is an honor to welcome all of you here for this special occasion. special welcome to the counsellor core who is here with us today. and a special welcome to the many chairs of our sister city committees and to the other city officials who are here from so many departments. and to all of you in the general public. it is an honor to have you here. without further ado, i'd like to turn this over to the man whose idea at this project it was. our mayor, mark farrell. [applause]

>> mayor farrell: than >> mayor farrell: thank you, mark. isn't this awesome? [applause] i am very excited here. i talked to our office of protocol, about my first week in office as mayor. i said why don't we have one of these poles with our sister cities? he said you know what? we can make this happen. here we are. two weeks before leaving office. this is an awesome way to go out. i want to say how proud i am to be here as the mayor of the city of san francisco. on the mayor of a city that prides itself on our sister city relationships. especially in this era today with the federal government, where we are building walls, we are tearing down relationships. we are literally creating tariffs. here in the city of san francisco, we are leading the way in a different manner. we are leading the way building bridges between our different countries and different cities throughout the world.

our sister city program in san francisco, it dates back to 1957. with the inaugural sister city of osaka. it was done just a year after president eisenhower in 1956 started the sister city program in our country to really get citizens involved amongst different cities throughout the world to build those bridges and between our different cultures and in between our different countries. we are literally, now in san francisco with 19 sister cities from 8-z-letter. we are so lucky and so blessed to have so many amazing volunteers and individuals working in the city of san francisco for our sister city committees and for our sister city relationships. and a few quick funds statistics about our sister cities. if you haven't been able to look at the kilometre clock up there,

the shortest distance from san francisco is a court, in ireland. there's a lot of people here from there. the longest one is bangalore in india. our smallest sister 60 -- sister city is in italy. it is the namesake of st. francis which our city is named after. i looked up today, a population of 26,000 people there. be due at a large and small here. we have bangalore, shanghai, sydney, paris, but we do it across the entire little world. thank you for coming here today. this is an awesome monument that will last forever here in san francisco to really talk about and exemplify how we believe our role in international community will always stand and how important our city believes it to be. again, thank you to all of the volunteers. many of you are here today. thank you to all the consular generals for all of your hard work. i want to give a special recognition to anita lee, mayor

lee's wife. she is here today. mayor lee was a huge support of our sister cities. he went to so many of them. we went, last year with mayor lee and anita to sign the sitter -- sister city agreement in kiel which was signed recently. a special recognition to our chief of protocol who is back with us. [applause] and thank you again to mark chandler and certainly the person who i had the initial conversation with, matthew. thank you for all your hard work on this. and last, but certainly not least, thank you to our department of public works. and the s. of nt s.f. nta sign u have made this happen. in any case, thank you for being here. this is a great celebration and we can always come visit here going forward into the future. with that, i would like to introduce a gentleman who has

been, there he is, right behind me. he has been the longest, i believe the longest serving chair of a sister committee or the longest-serving chair of the sister committee of osaka. again, it was our first sister city relationship in san francisco. the gentleman is literally a stalwart in our japanese community here in san francisco. i would like to bring up alan oka moto. [applause] >> while. being introduced by the mayor. that's pretty cool, isn't it? i did not expect that. anyway, before i give my very, very brief remarks. i would just like to acknowledge charlotte again. the chief of protocol. you know, the other day i overheard a conversation between mayor willie brown and mayor -- the mayor of san jose. willie brown -- norman said, i have an airport named after me and willie brown said, i have a

bridge named after me. charlotte has topped them all. she has the stairs on the rotunda of san francisco city hall named after her. how cool is that? also, since i am giving out some thanks. we should give great thanks to mark chandler. the director of international trade. without him, our sister cities would not be able to function. mark, thank you. and then, again, as the mayor said, the right hand man the does all the hard work, matthew. thank you. [applause] you know, i am so honored to represent the 19 sister cities that san francisco has. excuse me. as the mayor said, i am the cochair of the san francisco city association. the cochair with me is kathleen. [applause] and the heart and soul of the

sister city, the hardest working person, the most important person is our executive director. as the mayor said to, osaka is the oldest sister city relationship that we have. last year we celebrated our 60th anniversary. we hope to go for another 60 years. the mayor mentioned that in order to provide better relations between the united states and japan, president dwight eisenhower asked the current mayor at the time, george christopher to establish the san francisco socket sister city association. the mission statement of the sister city is very similar to all the other sister city association's. we were attempting to build bridges of friendship and commerce between the two great powers of the pacific rim. san francisco, and osaka.

i know that we will continue on despite anything that anybody has said. san francisco and the osaka relationship will continue far into the future. i know everybody is anxious to get to lunch, so i just wanted to mention the other sister cities and their chairs. they are all here. everyone likes to hear their own name. if you would allow me to mention their names, and please, i apologize for the pronunciation. some of these are pretty difficult. anyway, we have frankie gillett. amann jordan. richard r. menino. james hurley.

is that correct? >> mayor farrell: german. >> i apologize. kim when. arthur will tell. hannah fleck. christopher carew ski. carmen colette. thomas horan. candace bender. james brigham and gmo tail costanza. i think all of you for attending and thank the city of san

francisco for this wonderful sign. thank you. [applause] >> mayor farrell: thank you allen. and for all of your hard work. i want to say special thanks to day to all of our police officers who are here and chief scott as well in our police department. thank you for being here. thank you to all of our officers. i would like to bring up the person who keeps our city clean. he has been responsible. this is his land here that we are able to put the statue on. please welcome up mohammed knew rue. [applause] >> thank you. it takes a village to really put together a project and to this project, when we got the call a few months ago from the mayor's office of protocol, we went to work and our partners donated the pole to us. and our friends at m.t.a., the sign shop, they had the responsibility of, you know, making all the science.

and then it came to our shop where we had to figure out the order of what the signs go. our division of architectures and engineering, they helped put all these signs into the correct places. they went through several different iterations. and then, of course, our operations department. our building shop came and builds the foundation, and we still have to come back and finish it. a big hand to all the city family for coming together to make this happen. [applause] also, as part of our public works, we are leading the charge were several agencies to make market street really the street of the future. market street is a project we have been working on for several years. we are close to completing a design. that design will include the redo of the holiday plaza itself. some of the ideas out there is actually two make over this plaza. it will not be a sunken hole and

create a lively space. but also make it much easier for people to get on the cable cars and the buses i get to where they are going. holiday plaza is ground zero for public works. we spent a lot of time trying to make sure all of the designs were in the works and they come to fruition. with the leadership of our mayor's office and the sister cities, this would not have happened. i am proud to be part of this project. a few names of people i should think. kevin from bvr, he lives -- he literally made sure we got this done on time. a big hand for him. [applause] and greta jones who oversaw the details to make sure this happened. i'm excited. this adds another beauty to our city and lets people know how far you are too many of our sister cities. charlotte, i know we are working on getting a few more sister cities. i'm looking forward to that. lets havlet's have a great day.

thank you very much. [applause] >> mayor farrell: thank you. again, thank you to all the consulate general's who are here. charlotte, do you want to say a few words? will this one work? can you get up? [laughter] >> let me come over there. [applause] want to fight? >> mayor farrell: absolutely not. [laughter] >> you should see what the other guy looks likely it happened in new york. be careful where you go. it won't happen in any of these cities. i really wanted to thank the mayor. he's been a mayor for a very short time, but he has done some wonderful things. this, for us, in protocol and the sister cities, tops the list. it really says that, you know, san francisco is a city of many, many nations. that is what makes us so great, and this brings people together.

as you know, the sister cities are for exchanges and culture, business, art, science, it goes on and on. what it is really about is about friendship. and you think about all the things that are going on in the world today, and we need more friendship. these committees that work so hard, and they represent the constituency of their particular countries, in this city, and in exchange with the cities across the way, so many miles away. but these may be lots of miles, but really, our hearts, and our arms are very close to the cities that our sister cities. may friendship rained with all the other things that are going on. and san francisco is a city that is a friendly city. we can do it better than anybody else. right, mayor? >> mayor farrell: yes. >> all right. [applause] anybody want to fight? [laughter]

>> mayor farrell: one more round of applause for our chief of protocol. [applause] again, thank you everyone for being here. to our consular general for your service. on behalf of your countries in the city of san francisco, to all the volunteers. the sister city committee heads and all the volunteers behind its. so many department heads are here as well. and a city family. this is a monument for years to come. let us take with us today the idea, the mission, the spirits, and the city of san francisco. let us build bridges. let us not build walls. let us carry with us the values of san francisco. thank you everyone.
