i'm ed decker. i am the founder and artistic director at new conservatory theater center. i had a lot of sort of philosophical visionary are remarks to share -- visionary remarks to share with you about the theater, but i'd rather speak to the information presented by claudia and the real estate department. for -- we moved into the 25 vanness location christmas 1984. as you can imagine, we have enjoyed a long, productive relationship, not only with our community, but with our various partners that have been the landlords of the building, including the language-term relationship with the real estate department of san francisco. as you can imagine, that during this last period from 2008 -- well, till now, it's been a

challenge for us to maintain our services for our students and our audiences because of the circumstances in the facility. but in the spirit of nonprofit and the show must go on, we always found a way to make sure or school matinnes were happening, our educational tours to the sfusd were happening, and our full season of programs at the theater facility at 25 vanness. the process that we engaged in with the delay of the -- of the lease option was based on guidance from the real estate department and the successful way of working together in good faith. so thank you and we hope you will endorse the updated recommendation from the real estate department. >> president cohen: thank you. >> good morning. my name is barbara hodgeson, and i'm the executive director at new conservatory theater

center. we've been at 25 vanness for more than 30 years and are proud to be a magnet for patrons to come to hayes valley to dine, shop, and enjoy the arts. we attract an audience of over 17,000 a year, and our health and wellness program reached over 19,000 young people last year along, and our conservatory serves over 700 students a year, two thirds of which are in under served communities throughout san francisco. we employ more than 100 artists, artisans and teachers annually. all of this is done by a small nonprofit running on an annual budget of under $2 million. i became executive director in 2012. at that time they had been managing water intrusion for many years. we worked tirelessly with the city to address the issues. real estate brought in the

experts and ed and i managed the socks and the mops. when our nirts renewal option came in 2013 we agreed with the city to hold off on exercising that option while the city investigated the ongoing significant water damage issues. this process continues over the next five years, effectively neutralizing the first five year lease extension. we -- as you can imagine, we -- planning plays an important part of keeping our tiny ship afloat. it's vital to maintain the high level of service and art to the community. our ability to stay in the time space of both of our lease extensions will allow us to maintain our position as a vital portion of the san francisco arts eco system. thank you. >> president cohen: thank you for your presentation. >> good morning. my name is nicole menez, and i am the program director for youth aware educational

theater. as a facet of what new conservatory theater center does for san francisco as a city and for the sf unified, we have been bringing free and health education plays to students within the sfusd for over 38 years now. and in that time, youth aware alone has served ov over .5 million students a an institution of san francisco health and wellness quick lum. since 1986 we've provided age appropriate educational and high quality theaterical productions. it educates students about h.i.v. and aids, and other subjects. so within the 19,000 sfusd students that we see annually, about a third of them come down

to our basement in order to see and experience these health and wellness plays. the rest of the students are served by after educators that we train, rehearse and activate at our theater space. so the sustainability longevity and maintenance of our space at 25 vanness is incredibly important to what new conservatory does as an education that supports countless teachers, educators and make sfusd school campuses, safer, more understanding environments. thank you. >> president cohen: thank you for your public comment. any member of the public that would like to further comment on item seven? all right. seeing none, public comment is closed. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: i'd like to move to the director -- deputy city attorney. >> mr. givner: deputy city attorney jon givner. it seems like based on supervisor fewer's remarks, the way you're going is to approve

the lease as proposed. but just a note as you discuss this, that in a situation like this where a lease includes a tenant option, the board can approve the lease or reject the lease, but you can't actually change the term on your own unless the department and the conservatory have agreed to the new term. so if you're not comfortable with allowing for ten years of tenant options, you -- your option is to continue this item and basically tell the department look, we're not comfortable with this ten-year thing. come back to us in a week or two weeks if you have reached a different deal. so just -- that's just that you can't make an amendment to the lease itself. if you wanted to limit it to five years, you would just have to ask the department to bring back a different proposal. out

board today. >> supervisor fewer: okay. i think i'd like to make a motion to do that. cope cone okay. miss gorman, did you have anything you'd like to say? >> no. >> president cohen: okay. supervisor fewer, you can make a motion now. >> supervisor fewer: we're going to accept the amendment as -- >> president cohen: let me take a stab at it. we're going to accept the amendment that the budget analyst is recommending, modifying the square footage figure, and then, we will accept the lease as written and forward that with a positive recommendation to the full board. >> supervisor fewer: yes. >> president cohen: all right. >> supervisor fewer: okay. >> president cohen: we can take that without objection. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: thank you. thank you very much. madam clerk, could you please call items eight, nine, and ten together. >> clerk: yes.

item number eight, resolution retroactively approving a contract agreement with baker place for behavioral health services in an amount not to exceed approximately 55.4 million for a total contract term of july 1, 2018 through june 30, 2022. item number nine, resolution retroactively approving a contract agreement for behavioral health services in an amount not to exceed 40.5 million for a total contract term of june -- joule 1, 20 -- july 1, 2019 to june 30, 2022. >> president cohen: all right. thank you. so we've got three resolutions for contract amendment agreements in there for mental health care services across the continuum of care, and we've got michelle ruggles from the

department of public health here to present. thank you. >> yeah. so the first contract is baker places. it is, as you mentioned, it's 55 million for the term of the contract. it's about $12 million peryear. actually, with baker, it is mental health, but really, more, what's different in this contract, it's a new contract, actually, as a result of a solicitation which was recently completed, and this is the implementation of something new in the city called the organized delivery system which came out of a state -- a federal waiver through the state. and what this is allowing us to do is basically provide an organized delivery system with the goal of improving treatment by being more coordinated from a city perspective and a department perspective, we'll be managing a substance abuse department managed care system.

but it also expanded the he eligibility of services that were available under drug medi-cal, and so services that we've provided most of our residential treatment that could not drawdown medi-cal, we're now able to drawdown medi-cal. what it means to the provider, which in turn will be a benefit to the clients, is that the treatment -- some of the changes are the treatment will be more medical and professional, moving beyond peer support. there's a requirement for evidence-based care, and then outcome measurement. so this is a very transform atiff change to the city, which we're very grateful that our former director, barbara garcia was behind. baker places, the program looks the same from the prior contract. there's ten programs.

all the sites, the names, the residential treatment, they're all the same, but they're moving forward under this new solicitation with the new requirements for them and an improvemented treatment system, we believe. and i think this recommendation was approved, so we're in full support. >> president cohen: thank you. thank you, michelle. let's hear from the budget legislative analyst's office. >> good morning. so each of these three contracts, one with baker place, the one with seneca center, and the one with healthright 360 all were selected through a competitive process in 2017. they've all been on an interim contract while the department was going through negotiations, and all of them are for retroactive approval back to july of 2018. we have reviewed them, we recommend approval for all of them. for item number nine, we do

actually have a clerical clarification, that the contract amount is not to exceed $40,429,444, which is different than what is stated in the contract and resolution. and for item number 10, the proposed contract with healthright 360, neither the resolution nor the contract itself has an extension option, but in our discussions with the department and they've forwarded to us the actual r.f.p. that was submitted, there was supposed to have been a five-year extension option, so we're recommending an amendment to the resolution to provide for an option extension through 2027, otherwise, we recommend approval. cone do >> president cohen: thank you. we'll take that recommendation. we're going to go to public comment. public comment is open for items eight, nine, and ten. >> these kind of situations

here, you always appear to be on the right track, but it bothers me and irritates me because these kind of programs are providing services to the most disadvantaged people in the city. you turnaround and give million trillion and billion dollar breaks to billion and trillion-dollar companies that don't need a break. and then, when a department is helping the most vulnerable people that need help, it's not getting no break. twitter has got tax free money from this city of unpaid taxes which is less than half of the amount of money that's being proposed and asked for by the previous speaker. and along with the other high tech companies. so in order to level the playing field, give them a break. i think they should get approximately $5.5 million more than what they're asking for in

order to level the playing field. they're the ones that need a break. people shouldn't have to come in here and plead like this to you to help the people that's most vulnerable and economically disadvantaged, a combination of both mental and physical disabilities when you give million of free money that's untaxable to the high tech companies. her department herself, they're paying payroll taxes. it's not fair. it's not fair. so when people come up here and is for money for services for people that are most vulnerable, whatever they're asking for from here on out, give them $5.5 million more than what they're asking for. i repeat, any department or any organization such as the hospitality house, providing services for people that's homeless in the shelter system,

$5.5 million more than what they're asking for. >> president cohen: thank you. is there any other speaker there? seeing none, public comment is closed. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: i have a question for you, miss rugals. i want to know the metrics that we use to evaluate and their success. >> well, we could an annual monitoring -- we do an an monitoring, but as a general, it's looking at recidivism, it's looking at, you know, how many people get into the programs, how long they stay -- i don't know, did you -- >> president cohen: so based on what you've just described, it's like a counting. you're keeping track on what the numbers are. i want to know, what is the goal, what is the standard and, i guess, a clearer picture of

the tool that you're using to evaluate these contracts? how do we know that they're successful, that they're meeting their mark? are we just using it based on the number of people that they're serving? okay. this gentleman seems to know the answer. >> yes. there's two staff that can speak to -- one, the seneca program is a children's program, and allison can speak to those measurements, which is really measuring change in their improvement, but she can speak to that. and then, jim stillwell will speak to the substance abuse measurements. >> president cohen: thank you. welcome. >> thank you so much. for the seneca programs, they're all children's programs, and they mainly serve children who are involved with the juvenile probation system or the child welfare system. in san francisco we use the

child adolescent programs. when they graduate -- and that assessment is done every year. when they leave the program, whether it's at the year arc, there's another cans that measures the progress of the child and the family while they've had the intervention of the seneca services. in addition for the seneca r.a.p. program, which is the biggest program that seneca has, in collaboration with our partners at juvenile probation and child welfare, there's a huge study that's done annually that not only looks at the cans assessment, but for child welfare and j.p.d., it looks at recidivism, looks at arrests, and looks at child change of

placement. >> president cohen: when you say looks at, what -- can you quantify that? >> yeah, sorry. so child -- both child welfare and juvenile probation have their own databases which track how many times a child has had to change placements. so as part of the overall annual report, they mine data from those databases to look at -- for a child that's enrolled in the program, they track how many moves that child has had because that's one of the measures as to whether or not the intervention is successful. >> president cohen: okay. thank you. and the benchmark that you're using, is this an industry standard? >> the cans is an industry standard. >> president cohen: okay. thank you. that answers my question. nope, that's it. to the gentleman. >> thank you. jim stillwell, department of public health. so for the alcohol and drug programs, really, the primary mechanism is reduction in drug and alcohol use.

the methods are the california out come measurement survey, and it's a fairly intricate system because the outcomes are compared also to the person's health state and their drug use, alcohol use at the beginning of the episode, and it looks at the change for that population. it's normed against statewide populations and also normed against city populations, so it's a fairly elaborate system without a single benchmark, but it is validated statewide at multiple places. >> president cohen: okay. thank you. >> in addition, we track 20 other variables, like housing status, employment status, family education, legal, things like that, but we have a pretty clear idea of program success.

>> president cohen: well, i know you have a clear idea. i was looking for a better clear idea. i hope that you as a manager have an idea. >> well, yes. >> president cohen: the only thing -- i hear all these qualitative words used to describe how you're evaluating. i just want to know -- this is a budget committee, so i'm looking for the numbers. how are we determining that these programs are meeting their mark? you know, i mean, this is a request for contract agreements on mental health care services across a continuum thing of care. >> probably the best -- >> president cohen: to be fair, we can look out on any streets in san francisco and say there's still some unmet need there. so my question to you is i want to be convinced that you're being successful, instead of just asking for more money to reup the contract.

>> i just had a very broad level. our programs perform at an average or above level when compared to similar programs, similar populations statewide. i would say the vast majority of clients have clear physical measurements indicating they are better at the completion of the program. to really -- i didn't really bring a complete sheet of numbers, but we can provide that. >> president cohen: okay. thank you. i'll appreciate it if you provide it, and always remember it's the budget committee. we love numbers. love numbers here. all right. let's go to the b.l.a. and hear what her thoughts are for these items. these are items eight, nine, and ten miss campbell. >> i think we did already report, but i want to point out we have a couple of recommendations. on night nine, there was a clerical error. on item number ten, to be consistent with the r.f.p., we're recommending a five-year

option to extend the contract that's not currently there. >> president cohen: okay. thank you. colleagues, are there any discussions? we've taken public comment. public comment is closed at this time. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: i would make a motion to approval the b.l.a. recommendations. michelle ruggles? the department was good with the recommendations, so i'll make a motion to approve this and send this to the full board with a positive recommendation. okay. thank you. mofrg on, item 11. >> clerk: approving a 2011 lease and use agreement between thomas cook airline limited to conduct information at the san francisco international airport. >> president cohen: we've got cassy widener from the airport again. this contract was starting this

past august. >> cassy widener with the san francisco airport. the airline, thomas cooks, has been operating at the airport under a permit. the item before you seeks your approval for thomas cook become a signatory to the irairport's use status. >> president cohen: explain to me a signatory status. what's the significance of that? >> so in 2011, the board approved the lease and use agreement with the 53 airlines that were operating at the airport. this is the agreement that is the mechanism that allows the airlines to provide flight operations, rent terminal space at the airport. it provides a common set of lease provisions such as base rents and fees, permitted uses of terminal space. it's also the mechanism that allows for the airport to make the annual service payment to

the city every year. it's essentially a master lease. >> president cohen: my question is they're not a signatory and now you're requesting for them to become one. i want to understand why. >> there are some benefit to see the airlines. they receive signatory -- airlines receive 25% lower landing fees. we are required to provide a little less in bond assurances, but it also gives the airport a mechanism for long-term planning for our facilities, flight operations, and to base our terminal rent space. >> president cohen: so i'm unfamiliar with this airline. is it a small airline? >> it is a small airline. it's a seasonal airline. they operate at s.f.o. july through october every year. just starting last year, two weekly flights between s.f.o.

and manchester, england. it will add thomas cook as a signatory airline. they will pay the airport approximately $76,000 a month for the season that they operate, which is july through october. because they are seasonal, and they only operate two flights a week, they are charged on a prorated fee perpassenger based on their use of the international terminal as well as their joint landing fees. the budget analyst does call out their monthly rent of $76,000 permonth and recommends approval, but i would be happy to answer questions if you have additional information that you're looking for. >> president cohen: you've answered my questions. i don't have any -- i don't see colleagues on the roster, so let's go to the budget

legislative analyst and here her thoughts. >> these thoughts are summarizes on page 30 of our report. because it only operates between july and october, they don't pay year around rent to the airport, so they're paying based on the airport's rates and charges which are approved annually by the airport commission. so for 2018, for their operating for four months, they would pay basically a service and charter fee totaling about 305,000 for the four month period. >> president cohen: you said 305,000. >> yes, for the four month period, and then they would pay a landing fee of 554 per-5,000 pounds of the landing fee, and these two change annually based on the airport commission's changing the rates and charges, but i recommend approval.

>> president cohen: thank you. i take that approval under advisement. let's open public comment. seeing none, public comment is closed. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: colleagues, i'll make a motion to accept the b.l.a.'s recommendation and with a positive recommendation. can we take that without objection? all right. thank you. [ gavel ]. >> miss widener, you have a question before you leave, if you can just come over here. i'm going to call item 12. >> ordinance amending the administrative code to increase the hourly compensation rate of city contractors out of a nonprofit or corporate entity to $17 perhour and followed tlafr by annual cost of living increases. >> president cohen: colleagues, this is our final item on the agenda. this ordinance increases the anyone mum profit for for

profit workers on san francisco city contracts with certain exclusions such as prevailing wage contracts to $17 an hour, also beginning on november 3 of this year. this includes the airport workers who despite being dee contractors have been making substantially less than the san francisco minimum wage since they are located in san mateo county. i've circulated a few cleanup amendments that you should have before you, and it is recommended by the city attorney, and i'll ask him to explain, if he'd like -- no, i think they're pretty self-explanatory. all right. so the cleanup amendments are, i think, self-explanatory. i hope to have your support on this item. i don't -- i don't think we have any other comments. i want to look to the b.l.a. and see if there's any remarks that you'd like to make. >> no. we don't have any new

information since last week. i think we have both said in our report that the impact to the city would only occur if there -- at the time of the lease or contract renewal, but at this point in time, we don't have any numbers if there is a fiscal impact to the city. >> president cohen: all right. then we'll go to public comment. public comment is open. >> you're on the right track, but you're going the wrong way again. in your item, you specifically explain the annual cost of living in order to live in san francisco. you do the math on that $17 an hour, eight hours a day, five days a week, four weeks a month, 12 years -- i mean, 12 months in a year, that comes out to $32,640 a year. every brand-new apartment complex that's built and housing opportunity comes out

of the mayor's office on housing. you set the lowest income requirement to be a tenant at the minimum at a minimum of 80,000 a year, 95,000 a year, $125,000 a year, and then, you have the audacity to say that's below market rate and affordable housing. that's disgusting. that's called price fixing, and it's a criminal act, and i'm calling it to your attention again. you have an emergency housing situation that's declared by the governor and the city of san francisco and you're deliberately fixing these rent prices where people in low-income brackets can't afford to be a tenant in the building. then, when you have us out in the street, you complain about it and belittle us. it's disgusting. u.c. berkeley just did a study on how this price fixing is the reason why you've got people that are homeless out in the street, and you use the word

gentrification when the truth of the matter is the word is discrimination and you're displacing low-income people by price fixing based on the income of the high tech people. then you've got the poop squad making $86,000 a year, and they're scooping up feces off of the sidewalk. >> president cohen: thank you. your time's up. [inaudible] >> president cohen: is there any other member of the public that would like to speak on this item? all right. public comment is closed. thank you. [ gavel ]. >> president cohen: all right. i'd like to make a motion to accept the amendments. all right. and i can take that without objection? thank you. and also make a motion to accept the ordinance and send it to the full board with a positive recommendation. and i'd like to make a motion

to send it by the full body. madam clerk, is there any further business? >> clerk: there's no further business. >> president cohen: all right. we're adjourned. thank you. it.

and what does it take for a boat to be transported into a floating fish market? find out as we hop on board on this episode of "what's next sf." (♪) we're here with the owner and the captain of the vessel pioneer. it's no coincidence that your boat is called the pioneer because it's doing just that. it's the first boat in san francisco to sell fish directly from the boat. how did you establish your boat into such a floating fish market? >> well, you know, i always thought that it would be nice to be able to provide fresh fish to the locals because most of the fish markets, you would have to do a large amount of volume in order to bring in enough fish to cover the overhead. when you start selling to the public that volume is much less so it makes it hard to make enough money. so being able to do this is really -- it's a big positive thing i think for the entire community. >> a very positive thing.

as a third-generation fisherman joe as his friends call him has been trawling the california waters for sustainably caught seafood since an early age. since obtaining a permit to sell fish directly to the public he is able to serve fish at an affordable price. >> right now we're just selling what a lot of the markets like, flat fish and rock fish and what the public likes. so we have been working for many, many years and putting cameras in them. there's the ability to short fish and we have panels that we open and close so we target the different species of fish by adjusting the net. and then not only that but then the net sort out the sizes which is really important. >> joe brings in a lot of fish, around 20,000 pounds per fishing trip to be exact. >> we had one day one time that we sold almost 18,000 pounds. >> it's incredible. >> i know, it's hard to imagine. >> but this wasn't always the case for joe. >> the markets that we have left in california, they're few and

far between, and they really are restrictive. they'll let you fish for a couple months and shut you down. a lot of times it's rough weather and if you can't make your delivery you will lose your rotation. that's why there's hardly any boats left in california because of the market challenges. my boat was often sitting over here at the dock for years and i couldn't do anything with it because we had no market. the ability to go catch fish is fine, i had the permits, but you couldn't take them off your boat. >> that was until the port commission of san francisco rallied behind them and voted unanimously to approve a pilot program to allow the fish to be sold directly to consumers right off their boats. >> the purpose of the program is to allow commercial fishers to sell their fish directly from their boats to the end consumer in a safe and orderly manner for the benefit of the overall fishing community at the port of san francisco. we have limited the program to certain types of fish such as

salmon, halibut, tuna and rock fish. crab is restricted from this program because we did not want to interfere with the existing crab sales on taylor street and jefferson street. so this is not meant to favor one aspect of the fishing industry more than another. it's to basically to lift up the whole industry together. >> and if joe the program has been doing just that. >> it was almost breathtaking whenever i woke up one morning and i got my federal receiver, my first receivers license in the mail. and that gave me permission to actually take fish off my boat. once we started to be able to sell, it opened things up a bit. because now that we have that federal permit and i was able to ppetition the city council and getting permission from san francisco to actually use the dock and to sell fish here, it was a big turning point. because we really didn't think or know that we'd get such a positive response from the public. and so we're getting thousands

of people coming down here buying fish every week and so that's pretty cool. they like the fish so much that they take pictures of it when they cook it and they send us all of these pictures and then they ask us, you know, constantly for certain types of fish now. and when they come down here the one thing that they say is that they're so amazed that the fish is so fresh they could eat a little bit during the week and it's still fresh all week in the refrigerator. so that's really cool. >> the fish is very fresh and the price is super. i don't think that you can get it anywhere in the bay area. i can see it, and i can stir fry it, wow, you can do anything you want. i just can say this is a good place to shop and you have a good experience. >> this program supports the strategic plan in terms of engagement, people being connected to the waterfront, and

also economic vitality. because it's helping the fishermen to make ends meet. they have no guarantees in their businesses, not like some people, and we want to do everything that we can to help them to have a good and thriving business. >> how does it feel to be able to sell your fish locally kind of in the traditional way, like your grandfather probably did? >> when i was a kid and i used to work in my dad's fish market, a lot of the markets that we sell to now are second and third and fourth generation markets. so i remember as a kid putting their tags on the boxes of fish that we shipped out of monterey and ship down to l.a. so it's kind of cool that we're still dealing with the same families. and this is probably about the only way that anyone can really survive in california is to sell your own fish. >> one of the advantages of this program is the department people that pull in the fish, they can find out where they caught it

and find out more about the fisherman and that adds to their experience. the feedback from the fishers has been very good and the feedback from the customers have very good. and there's a lot of people coming to the wharf now that might not have done so. in fact, there's people that go through the neighboring restaurants that are going to eat fish inside but before they go in they see the action on the dock and they want to kind of look at what's happening on the boat before they go in and they have a meal. so it's generated some conversation down at the wharf and that's a good thing. >> as you can see by the line forming behind me getting ready to buy fish, the pilot program has been a huge success. for more information visit sfsport.com.

>> hi. my name is carmen chiu, san francisco's aelectricitied assessor. today, i want to share with you a property tax savings programs for families called proposition 58. prop 58 was passed in 1986 and it was helped parents pass on their lower property tax base to their children. so how does this work? under california's prop 13 law, the value we use to calculate your property tax is limited to 2% growth peryear. but when ownership changes, prop 13 requires that we reassess properties to market value. if parents want to pass on their home or other property to their children, it would be

considered a change in ownership. assuming the market value of your property has gone up, your children, the new owners, would pay taxes starting at that new higher level. that's where prop 58 comes in. prop 58 recognizes the transfer between parents and children so that instead of taxing your children at that new higher level, they get to keep your lower prop 13 value. remember, prop 58 only applies to transfers between parents and children. here's how the law twines an eligible child. a biological child, a step child, child adopted before the age of 18, and a son-in-law or daughter-in-law. to benefit from this tax saving program, remember, you just have to apply. download the prop 58 form from our website and submit it to our office. now you may ask, is there a cap how much you can pass on.

well, first, your principal residence can be excluded. other than that, the total tap of properties that can use this exclusion cannot exceed $1 million. this means for example if you have two other properties, each valued at $500,000, you can exclude both because they both fit under the $1 million cap. now what happens hwhen the totl value you want to pass on exceeds $1 million. let's say you have four properties. three with current taxable value of $300,000 and one at $200,000, totaling $1.1 million in value. assuming that you decide to pass on properties one, two, and three, we would apply the exclusions on a first come, first served basis. you would deduct properties one, two, and three, and you would still have $100,000 left to pass on. what happens when you pass on the last property? this property, house four, has been existing value of 2 -- has

an existing value of $200,000, and its existing property value is actually higher, $700,000. as i said, the value left in your cap is $100,000. when we first figure out your portion, we figure out the portion that can be excluded. we do that by dividing the exclusion value over the assessed value. in this case, it's 50%. this means 50% of the property will remain at its existing value. meanwhile, the rest will be reassessed at market value. so the new taxable value for this property will be 50% of the existing value, which is 200,000, equaling 100,000, plus the portion reassessed to market value, which is 50% times $700,000, in other words, 350,000, with a total coming out to $450,000. a similar program is also available for prepping transfers fl interest r from

grandparents to grandchildren. if you're interested in learning more visit our website or >> right before the game starts, if i'm still on the field, i look around, and i just take a deep breath because it is so exciting and magical, not knowing what the season holds holds is very, very exciting. it was fast-paced, stressful, but the good kind of stressful, high energy. there was a crowd to entertain, it was overwhelming in a good way, and i really, really enjoyed it.

i continued working for the grizzlies for the 2012-2013 season, and out of happenstance, the same job opened up for the san francisco giants. i applied, not knowing if i would get it, but i would kick myself if i didn't apply. i was so nervous, i never lived anywhere outside of fridays know, andfridays -- fresno, and i got an interview. and then, i got a second interview, and i got more nervous because know the thought of leaving fresno and my family and friends was scary, but this opportunity was on the other side. but i had to try, and lo and behold, i got the job, and my first day was january 14, 2014. every game day was a puzzle, and i have to figure out how to put the pieces together. i have two features that are 30

seconds long or a minute and a 30 feature. it's fun to put that altogetl r together and then lay that out in a way that is entertaining for the fans. a lucky seat there and there, and then, some lucky games that include players. and then i'll talk to lucille, can you take the shirt gun to the bleachers. i just organize it from top to bottom, and it's just fun for me. something, we don't know how it's going to go, and it can be a huge hit, but you've got to try it. or if it fails, you just won't do it again. or you tweak it. when that all pans out, you go oh, we did that. we did that as a team. i have a great team. we all gel well together. it keeps the show going. the fans are here to see the teams, but also to be

entertained, and that's our job. i have wonderful female role models that i look up to here at the giants, and they've been great mentors for me, so i aspire to be like them one day. renelle is the best. she's all about women in the workforce, she's always in our corner. [applause] >> i enjoy how progressive the giants are. we have had the longer running until they secure day. we've been doing lgbt night longer than most teams. i enjoy that i work for an organization who supports that and is all inclusive. that means a lot to me, and i wouldn't have it any other way. i wasn't sure i was going to get this job, but i went for

it, and i got it, and my first season, we won a world series even if we hadn't have won or gone all the way, i still would have learned. i've grown more in the past four years professionally than i think i've grown in my entire adult life, so it's been eye opening and a wonderful learning >> my apartment burned down 1.5 years ago in noba. my name is leslie mccray, and i

am in outside beauty sales. i have lived in this neighborhood since august of this year. after my fire in my apartment and losing everything, the red cross gave us a list of agencies in the city to reach out to and find out about various programs that could help us get back on our feet, and i signed up for the below market rate program, got my certificate, and started applying and won the housing lottery. this particular building was brand-new, and really, this is the one that i wanted out of everything i applied for. and i came to the open house here, and there were literally hundreds of people looking at the building. and i -- in my mind, i was, like, how am i ever going to possibly win this? and i did. and when you get that notice that you want, it's surreal, and you don't really believe it, and then it sinks in, yeah,

i can have it, and i'm finally good to go; i can stay. my favorite thing about my home, although i miss the charm about the old victorian is everything is brand-new. it's beautiful. my kitchen is amazing. i've really started to enjoy cooking. i really love that we have a gym on-site. i work out four days a week, and it's beautiful working outlooking out over the courtyard that i get to look at. it was hard work to get to the other side, but it's well worth it. i'm super grateful to the mayor's office of housing for having this for us. : we'll
