12:00 pm
one-inch different in size, i have the dimensions here. i hope you can see them. i'll read them out to you. the box on the lower left, 15.5 inches wide, the at&t mobility box, 8 inches wide. the box on the lower left is the -- i'm sorry, the box on the left is the sprint box. it is 11 inches deep. the box on the right from mobility is 5.5 inches deep. the box itself is more than twice the size in that dimension, and it is 32 inches tall. vice president swig, you were correct, it is a big box. to not be marking it out for following the planning guidelines to do that is another -- was another, you know, misleading by these organizations. i think i've got most of them. i just want to recap. mobility did not comply with noticing. they did not notice any of the
12:01 pm
neighborhood organizations in the first mailing. i don't know what they did in the second mailing because there was no second mailing. it came by e-mailing only to people who had protested. i have the list from their contractor. it does not have any haight-ashbury or any organization in our area on it. they're all south of market. you can see the heading on it. mobility failed to notify the residents forth rightly of the works plan, the new plan, the pole, the size of the pole. the application does not comply with public works conditions number two, no installation of new poles in underground utility district. thank you very much for considering this. >>clerk: thank you. we'll now hear from the attorney for the permit holder. >> to circle back to the new pole replacement pole issue, the replacement pole that is going in is a 28'6" city standard
12:02 pm
pole. this is the pole that your sfpuc has as a standard pole across the city. this is what they have asked us to put there. when it comes to replacing a pole with sfpuc, that decision lies with them, whether they want us to use the existing one or replacement one. part of the condition of working with them is to put in new foundation with them, any way. so if sfpuc would rather have us use the existing pole, which my understanding it conforms to the replacement pole, but this is what sfpuc is asking, and we're following the contract. planning guidelines, theis is t be in conformance with other carriers. the midpole equipment enclosure is already deployed elsewhere in the city.
12:03 pm
it's an industry standard type enclosure by the manufacturing ltec. why other carriers don't use it, again, every carrier uses different equipment. i believe the photo the appellant was showing, there's another piece of equipment stacked on top of it, but he's just highlighting the lower piece of equipment compared to our midpole enclosure thatten compo -- that encompasses midpole intersections. the nearest utility poles can't support additional infrastructure on them, and until this summer, telephone corporations such as mobility didn't even have access rights to the pole tops of those utility poles which is a requirement for installing these kinds of things with sprint. so those weren't even on the
12:04 pm
table until recently, and even now, you know, the poles -- pg&e's utility poles are already overloaded and where you want these things undergrounded, i don't think you would want more on those utility poles when we can do the planning approved, you know, conform design that the city has asked for, you know. so again, in noticing, commissioner honda, as you pointed out, 150 feet, the radius is very large. i don't know everyone's address here offhand, whether they call in 150 feet. it's not going to be a large group that's going to get the mailing notice, but we did comply. we did send out to an address list that our third party vendor developed. we in good faith complied with the noticing requirements. thank you. >>clerk: thank you.
12:05 pm
>> commissioner honda: counselor, are you familiar with senate bill 649 that originally passed through the senate? >> i am. >> commissioner honda: okay. can you give us a light description of what that would have allowed prior to govern i don't remember -- governor brown vetoing that? >> it would have removed a lot of the city processes in place -- >> commissioner honda: basically, in short, it allowed the telecommunication companies to put anything they want on top of our poles. >> it certainly wasn't carte blanche. >> there was no size requirement, there was only a noise requirement. >> yes, i believe. >> commissioner honda: okay. thank you. >>clerk: is there anything else from the department of public works or planning? planning? okay. thank you. so commissioners, this matter is submitted. >> commissioner honda: i'll start off. so one, i really appreciate every spending -- i know that
12:06 pm
you really wanted to spend six hours down at city hall this evening, and trust me, i'm very sympathetic to this. but again, as i've said, we've heard literally thousands of these particular cases. the state has pretty much tide or arms with article 25 that health is not to be mentioned. there's very, very few things that we have the ability -- and usually even when we deny it, we just are continuing it, we're punting it, and at which point, it will get approved later on. as i mentioned earlier, there was a bill that is passed by our local senate that allowed the telecommunications to put anything on the pole, and our governor actually vetoed it. no one in this room probably knew about it. the concern is you should probably talk to your local supervisor, senator and assembly person. unfortunately in this particular case, the only question i had
12:07 pm
was regarding notification, which we had a right, and particularly in regards to whether it's a new pole or old pole. i think i personally have enough information that it is a replacement pole, and they do have a right to replace it with that. regarding notification, there was no one here that was within the required notification area that said that they did not receive notification. so unfortunately, my opinion is that to uphold the permit, that it was properly issued. >> president fung: i guess i'll disagree with you. >>clerk: there's no comments from the audience. >> president fung: you know, the situation in a -- [inaudible] >> president fung: excuse me. there's no more comments. everybody had their chance. now it's our turn. there aren't very many districts that have undergrounded.
12:08 pm
we faced one before, and unfortunately, the appeal lost on a split vote, but i'll take the same position. theirs was a little bit different in the sense that i went against the planning determination. this time, i'm going to go against the d.p.w. determination that this -- that they can word smith it all they want, but this is a new pole, and undergrounded, it's not allowed. >> commissioner honda: i'll support that. without further comment, is that your motion? >> president fung: in a -- in an undergrounded utility district. i don't know. somebody -- >> commissioner honda: it's late. it was said. >>clerk: you going to make a motion? >> president fung: yeah, condition number two on the
12:09 pm
permit. >> commissioner lazarus: i'll make a motion. >>clerk: okay. >> commissioner lazarus: for further discussion. >>clerk: can you speak into the microphone. >> commissioner lazarus: yes. i'm going to move to deny the appeal and grant the permit on the basis that it was properly issued. >>clerk: okay. we have a motion from commissioner lazarus to deny the appeal and grant the permit on the basis that it was properly issued. on that motion -- [roll call] >>clerk: okay. so that motion fails. >> president fung: i'm going to request -- >> commissioner honda: a continuance? >> president fung: -- that we continue this case so that we can have the department resolve this issue on notice. >> commissioner honda: how about clarifying the new pole, and the definition on the new pole. >> president fung: well, there's already been a motion
12:10 pm
that lost. have to be a continuance. >> commissioner honda: i agree. >>clerk: okay. so we have a motion from president fung, and to what date did you want to continue this? >> president fung: i think it should be d.p.w. looking at this. how long do you need to verify results? couple of weeks? >> commissioner honda: will we need p.u.c. or no? >> president fung: they weren't involved in the notice. >> commissioner honda: okay, but if it's the pole -- >> commissioner tanner: that's not d.p.w.'s pole. >> commissioner honda: so we would need p.u.c. to give the definition. >>clerk: president fung wants to verify the noticing for the permit. that's what the continuance is for. >> commissioner honda: okay. >> commissioner lazarus: and how are you proposing that they do that? >> president fung: i think they all need to delve into it and determine what was sent out and whether it was accurate or not.
12:11 pm
>> commissioner lazarus: not sure how they're going to do that. >> you want more than the list of addresses? >> president fung: look, i'm making the motion. if you want to amend it, you're welcome to do that. >> commissioner lazarus: no. >>clerk: okay. so we have a motion from president fung to continue this matter and -- >> president fung: let's continue to december 12. >>clerk: -- to december 12 so that the department of public works can verify that noticing of this matter was properly performed. >> president fung: yes. >>clerk: on that motion -- [roll call] >>clerk: okay. so that motion carries with three votes, and the matter's continued. so this concludes the hearing.
12:12 pm
>> good morning everyone. i'm the director of the department of homelessness and supportive housing. it is so wonderful to see everyone here at the grand opening of this family access points. let me start the program by introducing the director of catholic charities in san francisco. [applause]
12:13 pm
>> thank you all. thank you, jeff, for your presents an introduction and thank you, mayor breed to, for your presence and endorsement of our program. i am honored to be here with you today and be present at this very special occasion. catholic -- catholic charities, although we have been serving the population in the bay area for 100 years, this is one of the third programs, one of three programs in the mission. we have 35 programs. this is just one of three. we have been very, very blessed. we have funding now to open this site. the mission access point is really what it is. it involves immigration services , as well as homelessness prevention. if it were not for the city of san francisco who gave us the money to start this program, we would not be here. i am very grateful to the city
12:14 pm
of san francisco. our sustainable plan is to see more funding so this program can grow, providing homelessness prevention services to the greater community has been such a big need to. as you know, we are seeing the numbers of homelessness increase our brothers and sisters are suffering every day on the streets. there are many who are not even counted. there are families living in their home, up to 20 people in a small space and they are often not counted. i would suggest to you that we have to work together, along with the city, and other nonprofits in our community, and our business community. those private-sector communities , to come together and solve the problem. none of us can do it alone. i am grateful to the mayor because i know she is committed to helping us solve this critical problem. bless you all for being here. we serve everyone. i want to make sure everyone knows that.
12:15 pm
we do not discriminate based on race, gender, sexual orientation , or faith or anything else. the catholic charities are here for everyone. it is a safe space. we will always be a safe space. 116 years in san francisco and in the greater area, 153. we expect to be here for another 150 years plus. again, i'm grateful for your presence, your endorsement, your support, and mayor breed,, please honor us with your words. [applause] >> thank you. thank you. i want to start by thanking catholic charities for their 150 years of work and services in the community, but more importantly, their willingness to step up and manage this incredible center that is going to be an incredible resource for , not only, sadly, some of our homeless families were
12:16 pm
struggling on our streets, but also our immigrant community. with the services that will be provided. as we sadly know, we have a president, who every single day, is attacking our immigrant community and here in san francisco, despite the attacks and despite the threats that come our way, we will continue to stand strong and provide resources and support to our immigrant community, for our people who are san franciscans, because sadly, we are under attack as a city and we will continue to do what's necessary to move the city forward which will include all san franciscans part of doing that is having a coordinated entry system in order to help our families grow and thrive. here at catholic charities, this is one of five locations that provides a place that people who are experiencing homelessness, can come in order to be entered
12:17 pm
into a system so that we can help people get into shelter or get into permanent housing. already, and i think jeff kaczynski who is running this department of homelessness for the city, can talk to you about the numbers and how amazing this coordinated entry system has been in terms of identifying individuals, tracking individuals and transitioning people into permanent housing. i'm excited about what we've been able to do. because i know that you hear a lot about the numbers and what's going on, and why isn't san francisco doing enough to address this issue, and the fact is, san francisco is doing a lot to help house people and help get them on the right path. and one of the statistics that you may not hear often enough is we housed about 50 people a week and right behind those 50 people there are another 65 people to take their place. there is a problem around the entire state of california about homelessness.
12:18 pm
about 24% of the homeless population that exists in the united states is here in the state of california. i'm excited about working on regional solutions for the purpose of addressing this problem. san francisco can't do it alone. but we are lucky that we have incredible partners who are willing to step up to the plate and they are still hiring for this location and looking for great and dedicated people to help facilitate this process and serve the community. in fact, thank you for your service in working with one of the clients who is here and who is actually working with the homeless population and is housed herself. michelle, in fact was a client and was working with the homeless population and is now housed herself. so this is what is -- what success looks like.
12:19 pm
it is having a coordinated system and working together, providing the right resources, providing shelters, providing housing, getting rid of the bureaucratic red tape that prevents us from building housing in the first place. i am looking forward to collaborations with all the 90 -- nine d. bay counties to address this challenge. access points cannot only just exist in san francisco, but also throughout the bay area. we have to build those partnerships so we can help make sure that people are housed, but especially, especially families. people with the children. that is going to be extremely important to move the city forward. i'm happy to be at mission access point, where we will be open and available and working with the community. i want to thank jeff kaczynski and catholic charities and all the people who are actively engaged in helping us and making
12:20 pm
this place a success for the homeless families, as well as immigrant populations. thank you all so much for being here today. at this time, i would like to introduce the supervisor who represents this district, henry ronen. [applause] -- hillary ronen. [applause] >> thank you so much. it is a very exciting day in the mission district. as you all know the mission district is one of the neighborhoods in the city where there are more homeless people living on the streets and in their cars in this neighborhood than anywhere else. it is one of the hard-hit neighborhoods. and to finally have an access point right here in the heart of the mission is so incredibly meaningful and it is going to make a big difference in the lives of so many people. i also want to say that catholic charities being the organization housing this important program
12:21 pm
is also, you know, i don't know if it is luck, it is hard to say luck when there's so much hard work involved. but this is an organization that the mission of community trusts. the mission of community trust this organization because catholic charities have been doing the hard work and neighborhoods for decades. it is known as a safe place to come where the services will be linguistically and culturally sensitive, where they understand the intersection between several challenges, whether it's someone who is homeless and might be undocumented and might not be in the english dutch and english language speaker, catholic charities knows how to work with a population and make them feel heard, invested, involved, and left. that is why i am particularly excited today. thank you. thank you so much for doing this important work and to all of the staff, thank you so much. i also just want to say that
12:22 pm
thank you to both the mayor and to jeff kaczynski for creating this coordinated system, finally , in san francisco, we are not reinventing the -- the wheel every single time interact with an individual. that is going to make the services that we provide so much more effective and meaningful because we will know what has been tried before and what did work, what didn't work, and be able to engage. finally, at the home, to one navigation center and one that has very close -- is very close by, to the shelters in santa maria and santa marta are, and to a new overnight program, the first of its kind that is starting at one avista horace mann school for the students themselves that are experiencing housing and security or homelessness, knowing that they will be able to work in conjunction with the school, with the principal, with the social workers at the school and those families, and get them
12:23 pm
housed as quickly as possible, because we know it's criminal for over 2,000 students in our public school system to be homeless. we have to fix that yesterday. can we know that this coordination between the overnight program and catholic charities running the access point in the mission, that we will be able to do that. congratulations and thank you so much. [applause] >> okay. thank you, mayor breed and thank you supervisor ronen. i was going to do introductions of both of our speakers so i will do this backwards and thank mayor breed for her leadership on supporting coordinated entry, which is really revolutionizing the way that we address homelessness in san francisco. will be able to help more people more effectively and eliminate waiting lists and really direct people towards services and
12:24 pm
resources that will help them move beyond homelessness or prevent them from becoming homeless and the first place. mayor breed has been a really incredible champion of this and we are very grateful to her leadership, and i also wanted to acknowledge that supervisor ronen has been very instrumental in bringing resources to the entire city, but especially into the mission district, helping raise $10 million at the state level to open up two new navigation centres. and more importantly than that, saying yes to navigation centres in her district and working with her constituents to help them support bringing services like the access point or navigation centres into her district. thank you very much for your leadership. and of course, to everybody at catholic charities to do such amazing work every day. now he is my pleasure to introduce another part of the catholic charities family. ellen, who has a few words for us. thank you. >> thank you very much.
12:25 pm
[applause] >> thank you everyone. good morning. i am the senior division director for catholic charities. it's my pleasure to welcome everyone and open this site. it has been a work of beauty and pleasure to finally have us open i do want to thank our c.e.o. and all the staff who i work with day in and day out to our dedicated to serve our clients in the best way possible. we are an accredited organization. our standard of care follows best practices and we are truly blessed with being able to provide the best services and the highest quality care for our clients. i also want to say, thanks to all the staff. this focuses us on hope and the
12:26 pm
tangible ways we can actively hope -- help our vulnerable neighbors thrive with dignity and self-determination. with the city and all of our other collaborative partners, we are focused on problem-solving. solving the problem of homelessness, and ending cycles of homelessness forever. that is our goal at catholic charities. we use problem-solving in our coordinated entry systems in order to end homelessness. we engage everyone in an equitable and community-based, solution oriented practice. where we acknowledge and give people opportunity to stand up and walk on their own to be empowered to us use our tools so they can sign -- find their way in their lives and support their own children to thrive. i am honored today to introduce a client who we have served through our bayview access point
12:27 pm
site and our s.f. home homelessness prevention program. our sister program in the bayview has been open for a year now, which is really exciting, and hopefully we will have a birthday celebration there sometime soon. it does the same work. we do outreach in the communities, so we go out teen vans and find families that need our help and bring them into do the problem-solving and the coordinated entry care. his of the client is here today. i think you've already seen her. michelle english. she is a catholic charities client who, with the guidance of our staff and the services at the bayview access point and s.f. home programs, was able to prevent homelessness, find stability, rebuild her life, and remained with her beloved 8 -year-old daughter, samara. did i get that right? so maia.
12:28 pm
i knew i would do that. with the stability of a home and a job now, she plans to become a sign language interpreter and pay it forward. please congratulate her and welcome her. [applause] >> how is everybody. first and foremost, i want to say thank you. everybody and jesus, i love you guys so much because without the consistency of it all, i don't feel like i would have accomplished everything. access point and bayview, people get discouraged in the neighborhood and it is not what it is kept up just cracked up to be. the people inside a very welcoming and loving, like you feel welcome and from the time that i've been there and the time that lady has been assigned
12:29 pm
to my case has been nothing just greatness. when i feel like giving up and finding somewhere to live, they continue to keep pushing. i did some footwork but i owe them everything. they do the majority of the footwork. i don't really know what else to say, but it is a blessing and if we can keep utilizing the things that are out there. just know that you can reach out for help. i am big on pride i was allergic -- working at a homeless shelter the whole time i was home. i don't want to step out on myself and go ask for help but i asked for help and i received it so the lesson now is i am able to walk into my home with my baby and she's so happy and i'm just thankful. [applause]
12:30 pm

$800,000, to a program beam up a comprehensive stepped early intervention program. >> an item, a grant of $800,000 to work with young people. at risk for mental health issues. supposed to last for two years. supervisor mandelman and the mayor are the sponsors of this. marlo simmons, come on down. representing the department of public health today. thank you, share with us your comments. >> marlo simmons, deputy director for behavioral health, department of public health. we have had a very robust early psychosis program in san francisco and this grant is an opportunity to expand that program and what we know about psychosis, the earlier you intervene and more effectively you intervene, you can change someone's whole life trajectory.
12:33 pm
>> resolution states the full grant period has a possible additional two years. if funds are available and if they are "satisfactory progress." maybe you can talk to me about how are we going to be able to measure satisfactory progress and what are the indicators, what indicators would be, would we be looking for to determine the efficacy. >> a lot of emphasis on getting the word out about the program, so it really is going to strengthen our outreach and awareness campaign that we are doing. so the measures include the number of young people that we are able to reach and enroll in the program, number of providers in the community that are connected to the program making referrals to the program. overall the program measures the symptoms people are experiencing, the families experience. of the young person's symptoms, reductions in hospitalization,
12:34 pm
incarceration, housing status. >> how do you measure all that? >> report from the client or we look in the electronic health records system, the program is actually replicated, i don't know the number of counties, at least 5 or 6 bay area county and expanding as well, so the state has put a lot of money into the early psychosis work and that program has been like a trail blazer nationally and internationally. a lot of robust measures that they are tracking. >> all right. thank you very much. seeing that there are no questions with my colleagues, what we will do is hear and take public comment. any member of the public would like to comment on item one, come down and do so. you'll have two seconds -- two

12:40 pm
new conduit in the street, sidewalk and a short segment on private property of 10 rockaway avenue, on the property of 10 rockaway, we need a license and so we worked with the owner of 10 rockaway for the license and the city attorney's office, no fee, no cost to the p.u.c. and license will run with the title of the property and it is perpetual unless terminated by either of the parties. and that is it. >> quick question. this project requires a license from the owner of 10 rockaway. >> correct. because of the conduit we need to install on his property. >> and there's no fee for the license? >> no fee, correct. >> and the license will run through the title of the property and the perpetual, unless terminated by the parties. >> correct. >> all right. so, sounds pretty standard. let's go to public comment. any member of the public that would like to comment on item

three, come up. >> good morning, karl wendorf, i live on rockwood court, part of rockwood terrace, these posts, lighting posts have been so important to our neighborhood. they actually come from a quarry, as far as i've been able to determine, from behind our homes in knock ash hill. and we have wanted to maintain them worked with the city, or with pg&e when they put in new cabling to improve that system because we had frequent occasion of lights going out in foggy times. and because these, two remaining posts that don't have lighting, we have been spearheading this project from the neighborhood to get these lit again. it's really important because it's one of these is right on
12:42 pm
the corner of laguna honda and rockaway, across from st. brendan's catholic church. there is a lot of activity on that five-way corner. traffic, kids, you've got st. brendan's school, the parish, commute time in the evening. there are a lot of people walking on the street, a lot of cars in that intersection. so having the poles lit once again would be wonderful. and thank you john and jarlean for working with us on this. >> 30 seconds remaining. anything else? >> that's it. thank you so much. any other member of the public like to comment? no, seeing none, public comment is close. approved and send to the full board with a positive recommendation. thank you, madam clerk. appreciate it. please call item four. >> four, resolution approving
12:43 pm
the issuance of revenue bonds or loan plan of financing in aggregate issue not to exceed 21 million to refinance all or portion of certain outstanding debt obligation that originally financed or refinanced the acquisition, construction, improvement, equipping and furnishing of educational facilities at 1453 mission street. >> all right. so, this legislation is introduced and sponsored by supervisor kim. we have the office of the controller presenting to us today. >> good morning, thank you for hearing the item. to give you a background on the resolution, tax equity and fiscal responsibility act allows tax exemption on debt, in this case, the financing through the california municipal authority, which the city and county is a
12:44 pm
member. and issue bonds, notes and other types of debt, including refunding previously issued debt. the resolution before you today is because federal tax law requires the governing body in which the project is located, after providing opportunity for duly noticed public hearing before the bonds can be issued on that tax exempt basis. in this case, the jurisdiction, the city and county, not obligated for paint on the bonds. hearing notice was published in the san francisco chronicle on september 14th. public hearing two weeks later on september 28th. no comments from any members of the public were heard or received through the process. background on the project, proceeds will be loaned to the borrower, california integral studies, for equipping and
12:45 pm
furnishing of educational facility on mission street, owned and managed by the bar in connection with the provision of educational services in the city. also finance additional improvements, water proofing, seismic upgrades, and other maintenance. also to finance improvements and equipment of certain other facilities that are leased and occupied by the borrower. related to providing counseling started at 312 sutter street. also in san francisco, capitalized interest and certain expenses with the bonds. the project is on mission and sutter street. the amount of the bonds approving, assuming it's approved, california municipal finance authority would issue tax exempt bonds not to exceed $21 million. and again, approval of the legislation will have no fiscal impact to the city and county.
12:46 pm
