have done that. >> if the member retires for services stipulation, at least they get a paycheck or something? >> that's correct. [please stand by]

>> we are now transferring people from workers' comp to the health system people will sa.

and so, you confuse the doctor, especially if you're out of area, you confuse the tonight. you confuse the pharmacy if you say, i'm getting my prescriptions filled for my workers' comp. >> workers' cor comp pays for disability that's not permanent. you could be an active employee and be under worker's comp or be eligible for a completely different position or body part than you've been awarded a workers' comp. so how health services administer focuadminister folkss corcomp is something we don't gt involved with in making sure they get connected and there's

no break in coverage for them on their medical side, but -- >> well, i've been pleaed with d people contacted me and said i have and issue and they have an advocate group for the retirees. that's the same type of service i would hike to see here and i think it can be done with the o mbudsperson, somebody high up in the chain that can walk in and

figure out. >> make the sure it gets fix. >> but in the meantime, that person will be me. >> it shouldn't be you and you know, you're getting bantered around and i don't want you to get bantered around. >> operations are under me. didn't nobody here can be doing it all and you have two jobs, a mother job and you have a father job and you have, you know, sister job and all that stuff that goes along that is occurring in family lives and stuff hike that. like that. that's why i say it's two jobs but it's really just being able to make it good for some of the people that are ill.

>> see if there's any improvement in the process and benchmark the number of cases today and we'll come back 12 months to see if there's any change in that number. >> we've documented on the first page, mid-april, 2019, but we'll have real numbers. it's approximately 400 but we'll have 421 or whatever the numbers are. anything else on this item? public comments? a discussion item only, ok. that concludes that item. before we move on, under item 15, the ci's report, was it meant this item regarding new enterprise should have been on the calendar? >> they were added to the closures after the board

materials were released. >> the director was notified by ashley duneen that it's that time of year and time for the distribution of the performance evaluation service. ashley indicated she'll be emails services directly to each board member this friday, the 14th and that under the board policy, the retirement board needs to get their survey responses back to ashley by the end of this month. , so june 30th. i also have some good news

related to onech our commissioners. commissioner carmen shoe delivered a healthy baby a week ago tuesday. the latest report from her office is that mother and daughter, kaylee, are at home bonding and resting. >> maybe you can get that to us in email to respond with a card or something. >> sure, darlene can send an email out. that's what her staff represented it to be. there's a counter item for the

next 12 board meetings but no item scheduled for committee meetings. i'm giving us a heads up that items are planned for the committees. if the committee doesn't meet, items don't get done. the only answer is the obviously one, which is purpose of our education, personnel, deferred comp. there are actions the board is waiting. so these committees have to meet to get things done. the committees may change next month but in terms of planning out your schedule, plan on saving the third wednesday of every month for a committee meeting. maybe you're not on that committee. the reason this is important, in terms of the strategic plan we expect staff to do things. every item, they're labeled deliverables, something we're expecting staff to do. part of the concept of deliverables, if a group is supposed to meet and decide, if the group doesn't meet, huge

botched it up in gettin gettings done, much like hearings for disability. things that should take a few months take one to six years to get done. >> but sometimes we are at fault because we don't do what we're supposed to do. we have our strategic plan or they're waiting for us to act, and i think that maybe as the guy who started the committee system over claire's objections may need to revisit the committee system to discuss do we have the right committees and are we in the -- are we doing everything or should we be consolidating? i think that's a discussion you'll have to think out in the next month as you make your

committee appointments in amonging at thlooking at the co, because we're looking at not only time but it's efficiency and something that we have to get done and i think that that's committees -- some committees may outly their usefulness and some committees are needed to get to another point. >> no one sense, you don't need committees, but the general topic task is called governance. we evaluate managers nonstop and the self--evaluation by the board has been dropped, skipped, ignored, never discussed. when we do it with managers, we know why we hire them and fire

them. we have to apply the same standard to ourselves if we're going to sit here and insist on governing this system. to again, i'm bringing this up, right now there are no committee calendars to meet. >> you're right, the only one on the calendar. >> i appreciate your comments because we need to have a commitment that the committee system will do the work or otherwise, our meeting share will be twice as long and that was, i believe, part of the reason -- at one point, this board met twice a month for the longest period of time and that was because they had disability hearings as well as all of the work is being done not in

committee. so i think it should go through the governance committee with that discussion on the system. a few years ago we had it off-site and supposedly went through this whole thing. >> the self-evaluation? >> consolidated committees, rebranded, whatever. you know, there's been a lot of change and going forward with the new committee assignments, everybody will come together. >> disability hearing stopped 43 years ago so we're way passed that. it's effective november of 1976. you can find a meeting. i hear stories about people watching from the old board room next door, watching the applicant with the head brace on

and that as soon as they're through with the hearing, they see it toss the neck brace off and jog across street, which was less than 43 years ago but it's not the point. >> part of expecting our managers to do better, expecting slantexpectingconsultants to doo provide better service, we have to apply that to the board. is that the only item left to discuss in. >> public comment on the executive director's report. excuse me. move to go to the order, individual members have any comments they would like to make? >> i have a couple. i do.

>> it's interesting because i've been to several meetings and things and people ask me about the contribution rates and i show it to them and they're astounded and they're mostly astounded by looking from 1997 to 2005. and it kind of says it all and i think this chart would be good on our website, on an evergreen and updated so it's readily available to us. and it's very eye-opening. the other thing is the, this was

in bigger letters so i printed it up and it's great for the members. and especially for the organizations. they look at it and they can -- it's something that gives them information and it's really good. so that's the type of things that i'm looking for when i say there's stuff that's on our website that the membership can look at, that others can look at that are interested in us. and it tells our story, our history.

they need to know we're not a mystery organization. that's what i'm talking about. that's my good of the order. >> is this something the communication's manager could do in terms of adding to our website? >> certainly not within the purview of our assignment. our current communication's manager is focused on member benefits' information, the

summary plan descriptions, fact sheets. >> ok. just a thought. >> thank you, commissioner driscoll. i thought about something when you mentioned earlier about one of our managers donated to the smithsonian and i wanted to point out we had another manager, one of our private equity managers, robert smith, and you may have seen it on the front of the "new york times," he was the commencement speaker for moorehouse college in atlanta, georgia. at the end of his commencement address, he and his family agreed to pay off the loan debt of every single graduate and that was done two weeks ago at the moorehouse college. he donated to the smithsonian, $20 million for one wing of the museum. i wanted to talk about one of the managers who presented today as well as being a private equity manager and giving back

but i thought the moorehouse chef piece acollege piece was o. so thank you for that, letting me point that out. >> motion to ajourn is in order. so moved. >> public comment. meeting is adjourned.

>> hi. my name is carmen chiu, san francisco's elected assessor. when i meet with seniors in the community, they're thinking about the future. some want to down size or move

to a new neighborhood that's closer to family, but they also worry that making such a change will increase their property taxes. that's why i want to share with you a property tax saving program called proposition 60. so how does this work? prop 60 was passed in 1986 to allow seniors who are 55 years and older to keep their prop 13 value, even when they move into a new home. under prop 13 law, property growth is limited to 2% growth a year. but when ownership changes the law requires that we reassess the value to new market value. compared to your existing home, which was benefited from the -- which has benefited from the prop 13 growth limit on taxable value, the new limit on the replacement home would likely be higher. that's where prop 60 comes in. prop 60 recognizes that seniors on fixed income may not be able

to afford higher taxes so it allows them to carryover their existing prop 13 value to their new home which means seniors can continue to pay their prop 13 tax values as if they had never moved. remember, the prop 60 is a one time tax benefit, and the property value must be equal to or below around your replacement home. if you plan to purchase your new home before selling your existing home, please make sure that your new home is at the same price or cheaper than your existing home. this means that if your existing home is worth $1 million in market value, your new home must be $1 million or below. if you're looking to purchase and sell within a year, were you nur home must not be at a value that is worth more than

105% of your exist egging home. which means if you sell your old home for $1 million, and you buy a home within one year, your new home should not be worth more than $1.15 million. if you sell your existing home at $1 million and buy a replacement between year one and two, it should be no more than $1.1 million. know that your ability to participate in this program expires after two years. you will not be able to receive prop 60 tax benefits if you cannot make the purchase within two years. so benefit from this tax savings program, you have to apply. just download the prop 60 form from our website and submit it to our office. for more, visit our website,

sfassessor.org, >> my name is alan schumer. i am a fourth generation san franciscan. in december, this building will be 103 years of age. it is an incredibly rich, rich history. [♪] >> my core responsibility as city hall historian is to keep the history of this building alive. i am also the tour program manager, and i chair the city

advisory commission. i have two ways of looking at my life. i want it to be -- i wanted to be a fashion designer for the movies, and the other one, a political figure because i had some force from family members, so it was a constant battle between both. i ended up, for many years, doing the fashion, not for the movies, but for for san franciscan his and then in turn, big changes, and now i am here. the work that i do at city hall makes my life a broader, a richer, more fulfilling than if i was doing something in the

garment industry. i had the opportunity to develop relationships with my docents. it is almost like an extended family. i have formed incredible relationships with them, and also some of the people that come to take a tour. she was a dressmaker of the first order. i would go visit her, and it was a special treat. i was a tiny little girl. i would go with my wool coat on and my special little dress because at that period in time, girls did not wear pants. the garment industry had the -- at the time that i was in it and i was a retailer, as well as the designer, was not particularly favourable to women. you will see the predominant designers, owners of huge

complexes are huge stores were all male. women were sort of relegated to a lesser position, so that, you reached a point where it was a difficult to survive and survive financially. there was a woman by the name of diana. she was editor of the bazaar, and evoke, and went on and she was a miraculous individual, but she had something that was a very unique. she classified it as a third i. will lewis brown junior, who was mayor of san francisco, and was the champion of reopening this building on january 5th of 1999. i believe he has not a third eye , but some kind of antenna

attached to his head because he had the ability to go through this building almost on a daily basis during the restoration and corrects everything so that it would appear as it was when it opened in december of 1915. >> the board of supervisors approved that, i signed it into law. jeffrey heller, the city and county of san francisco oh, and and your band of architects a great thing, just a great thing. >> to impart to the history of this building is remarkable. to see a person who comes in with a gloomy look on their face , and all of a sudden you start talking about this building, the gloomy look disappears and a smile registers across their face.

with children, and i do mainly all of the children's tours, that is a totally different feeling because you are imparting knowledge that they have no idea where it came from, how it was developed, and you can start talking about how things were before we had computer screens, cell phones, lake in 1915, the mayor of san francisco used to answer the telephone and he would say, good morning, this is the mayor. >> at times, my clothes make me feel powerful. powerful in a different sense. i am not the biggest person in the world, so therefore, i have to have something that would draw your eye to me. usually i do that through color,

or just the simplicity of the look, or sometimes the complication of the look. i have had people say, do those shoes really match that outfit? retirement to me is a very strange words. i don't really ever want to retire because i would like to be able to impart the knowledge that i have, the knowledge that i have learned and the ongoing honor of working in the people's palace. you want a long-term career, and you truly want to give something to do whatever you do, so long as you know that you are giving to someone or something you're

then yourself. follow your passion and learn how to enrich the feelings along the way.
