this year, we have 1250 -- 12 ftes' and a small reduction in services from other departments. again, going through positions, authorized positions from 41 to 12 at the hrc. 70% reduction. funded positions from 33.5 through 12 positions in 12-13. up here -- you can see -- and you can read this but a graphic -- the green is the positions that are staying at hrc. current projects now that we have remaining staff. this is the african-american initiatives which is the african-american leadership council which is headed up by commissioner davis and the african-american empowerment initiative which is done within hrc staff and some other committees. some other initiatives will be going forward with that are underway now is the lgbt initiatives and faith and community initiatives. lgbt housing clinic beyond castro which is servicing and talking to in having community meetings in communities of color with the lgbt populations and the bisexual initiative. other initiatives going forward are the sanctuary cities. the profiling of african- american -- arab, african, middle eastern people

do you have any concern about the impact -- you talk about 12 fte's remaining at hrc and something like 29 moving over. i want to make sure that the very important the backhrc has played remains -- that hrc has played it remains. >> that is a concern, but we have been assured by the mayor's office, having been a former director of the human rights commission, that we do not need to be concerned. my concern until recently was the work order. we received funding from the departments that are involved in the work. now hrc has moved to we general fund department. i think there will be a work order back to the administrator for some of the functions, but after that, it will be a 100% general fund department. that is difficult, and could become difficult if we get into different types of budgetary positions in the city. we also have retained an administrative person who will continue to do our small amount of financial and budgeting work. that person will also be tasked with about 50% of her time seeking outside grants. during this two-year budget cycle, we plan to be able to transition a por

a year over year fte growth is only 1.7 positions, so it is not as big an increase as one would think when first looking at the numbers. to be more specific on where we are in agreement, we agree that on the one-month delay for the harvard of the bar mental and citywide planners for the proposed arena, which is recommendation that analyst has made. we're in agreement about the reduction of temporary salaries and the reduction to annualized professional services, which it was done at the last recommendation of the budget analyst report. to be more specific and where we are not in agreement, the recommendations -- there are three position that we are proposing that we think are justified, given the workload of the department, and as we have seen, trends in the past couple of years. one is for legislative affairs. the planning code has been amended over 54 times in the past year, which is a substantial increase from the year before. we are seeing a substantial increase each year. that does not include the increase in the number of appeals, which are also increasing the amount of staff ti

issue remains the recommendation of the library openings additional flow hours there represents 2.5 fte for those facilities. i am happy to respond to any questions you may have. supervisor chu: would you be able to address the area where there is still the this agreement? >> madam chair, just to clarify these are the policy recommendations. the library is an agreement with all of the recommended cuts. these are the policy recommendations on pages 13 and 14. supervisor chu; what remains is primarily the policy recommendations for the custodian, a library one and a library tech assistance. these four positions are related to the expansion of library hours, correct? take of that is correct. - >> that is correct. supervisor chu: given that the department has agreement with the department recommendations, i would recommend we accept the policy recommendation by the budget analysts. i am a big fan of expanding the library hours and would hope the committee would not take the recommendations the we're able to expand the library hours. supervisor cohen: i want to echo your comments, and i also

have received more revenue than we budgeted, but we are trying to keep in terms of a realistic type of fte talent. -- count. looking at the way we are organized to make sure we as -- we are as efficient as we can be. sueprvisor kim: on the conversation, i heard from president mccarthy kind of, but seeing the surplus, what were the challenges to that hiring? >> there were two areas that were problematic. >> it takes a long time for a requisition to be approved through the hiring process. this was approval from the mayor's office and d.a.'s shark. even though we had a larger problem, where we had to wait for the tax to be complete for the clerical division, it was not complete until the end of this year. we had to wait until those were published and approved by the unions before we could hire those positions. then we had a significant number of positions that required city- wide testing methodologies run by the department of human resources, or position-based testing, which will be -- the department of human resources. and without having any opinion available for them to use in not having th

are these new positions, or are these of the 58 fte's that were eliminated previously? >> a few different things happening. the city attorney's office, there are -- the city attorney is able to absorb much of the work that was previously done by attorneys at the redevelopment agency but is reorganizing and needs to get several positions to accommodate the full workload related to property management,

the board in their wisdom originally voted to drop the down 2.5 fte and we have had discussions of looking at our survey. sort of a upping that to a full position. can you tell me, briefly update where that is in this budget as islet -- i am looking in that program. >> i am scanning the room to try to find kevin truett. he may be hiding from me. we did have a fairly thorough discussion about this issue and he is in more direct contact. if he can join us, i will cleverly look to him to elaborate. when we were looking at the needs in school health programs which are many, we did talk about the lgbt resolution and the support of staff resources and non-staff resources as you are familiar with. pursuant to that resolution. we also discussed in a slightly broader context with the health curriculum, write? which is related in some respects to the lgbt resolution. as the associate superintendent will explain, we did find in looking at these priorities, the lgbt resolution itself, the tsa support for health content specialist and another aspect which is an investment in case management tools for b

our position count is roughly flat, declining from 201 fte's down to 198. supervisor chu: can i ask you to hold on? ok. go ahead. >> just to very briefly -- are balancing plan for this budget totaling $2.1 million over the two years is really made up of a host of different solutions that you have in the proposed budget before you. $220,000. slowing down the work we're doing in the auditor function, which generates a balance we are using to reduce their need for general fund money the year after. then other miscellaneous productions and work order recoveries. that is repeated each of the two years. very briefly, to hit some of the highlights of our work plan for the coming year, we are very excited to be nearing the end of phase one of the project. this is the city's replacement of the 20-plus year payroll system it will be an integrated payroll system merging with the human resources systems on one platform. we do expect that there are subsequent phases to the project that will be stretching through the coming fiscal year. we expect to hit that milestone ea

we believe have an fte would do that work. it was not the original intent of the particular position. we can continue to work on that. i think we all recognize the need for it. supervisor chu: thank you. supervisor wiener? supervisor wiener: with respect to the two requested public projects, environmental planners, my understanding is that will be funded through the budget and then they will not be billed out to the other departments? >> correct, through general fund. supervisor wiener: i think i mentioned this last time. having gone through a number of these public projects, it is a real fire drill every time making sure that we can get staffing from the planning department and making sure to move these projects forward in a timely manner. it undermines confidence in the public spending and capital process when we have a project that is moving forward and then it has a hit but because there is a delay in the environmental review. most recently, and dolores park, the department, they did the timing bet needs, but for a while,

we've been promised that for years and years, that was going to drive down ftes. doesn't seem to have materialized. you're right. less flights should mean less screeners. they have a role in that in physical intrastructure. there are all these inputs that i think the tsa should have to come and justify to you because it is the result of not a human judgment. it's the result of a formula that has them moving towards a particular staffing level. i think in terms of the supervisors, i believe that administrator pistol testified he didn't have the money to do the training. my own feeling is that money is not the problem of tsa. it should be a relatively simple matter in my view to reprogram existing funds toward doing the training for the supervisors in order to have them be utilized as we've suggested and discussed here. >> great. let me ask this. i'll throw this out to whoever wants to answer this. everybody nodded affirmatively when i appreciated the initiative is going too slow. >> very frequent travelers are put into that. who else should be included? who would y

expenses excludeing our insurance acquisition were down, ftes were flat, so we had good growth in loansnd it was pretty broad based. we were fortunate we had specialized lending businesses that were going well. direct retail loans to our consumers is going well, so it was pretty broad based loan growth. our cost came down, so kind of all of the pieces worked. >> we had richard davis on yesterday, ceo of usbancorp. what kind of lending picture are you seeing and what about credit quality for consumers right now? >> well, our volume, i suppose very similar to what richard told you, our volume is very strong in all categories, for example, we had $8 billion in mortgage production, one of the strongest quarters we ever had. loans booked is very, very good in mortgage and retail and business across the board. so the volumes are good, the quality is vrg good, the euros are satisfactory. not as high as we would like. but the interesting thing is that does not necessarily reflect what's going on in the broad based economy. we're very new in big markets like florida and texas. we have specialize
