mention of any recommendations of any indictments. i'm told that's not happening. we can put to rest that speculation once and for all. >> that doesn't necessarily mean that other u.s. attorneys in the southern district of new york or the u.s. attorney here in washington, d.c. or northern virginia, they can pursue legal action? >> absolutely. we should make that point, there have been spinoffs from much of mueller's work. we have seen him farming out certain cases to the d.c. u.s. attorney's office, also the eastern district of virginia and, of course, the southern district of new york which is handling the michael cohen investigation. we have seen outputs from his investigation. but we are not going to receive any further recommendations from mueller about the core work of his mandate, which was russian interference in the election, obstruction of justice, all of those issues were central to what he was put here to do. no further indictments on that front. >> from the special counsel. presumably, some of those who were brought before

colleagues, any questions? let's pof vo pivot to the b.l.a. then and hear the report. >> connor house is selected by the department through a competitive process. we summarized the competitive process in page one and page 10 of the report. this is for outpatient mental health services for supportive housing. the department entered into an interim contract for $8.5 million for physical year 2018 for the full contract. it increases the contract amount to $44.9 million, and that includes a 12% cocontingency. it is summarized on page two of our report, and we recommend approval. >> chairwoman: thank you very much. this opens up for public comment. any members of the public who would like to comment? >> seeing none, this is now closed. i noticed on the b.l.a. report, on page 13, that under the policy consideration, that you do an annual monitoring report on these community-based mental health providers, and you rate about the performance scores. and that particular organization rates very high. my question is: do yo

otherwise they should have accepted my visa earlier like any other visas. if they're interested in granting visas to palestinians they should allow them to come to the u.k. without a visa like the israeli people. the u.k. government is racist and it is supporting the israelis not the palestinians because it considers them as a danger that threatens that country in the hope that our beloved honestly if that the growth that finally you are not a victim of the occupation the settler child forced to fight for the i.d.f. is do you pity israelis. of course i pity them because they are dehumanised. that only filled with hatred as i said before it is not about occupying their land it is about keeping i'd mind. however israel only occupied land but they never occupied our minds. if the last we love. we are still resisting the occupation and the jewish people should resist and try hard to deliver the real image of their religion. they should deliver a message to all the people that the jewish people are different from the zionists who want to achieve their goals unde

i am happy to answer any questions. >> chair fewer: thank you very much. colleagues, any questions? if not, let's hear from the b.l.a. >> this lease actually renewed in 2013 and approved by the board. at that time, there was an increase in space being used by the department of human resources. as miss gorham said, the rent at $38 per square foot is actually considered lower than comparable rents in the area. there was a review although not a formal appraisal done by a third party, kinder matthews. we show the terms of the lease and summarize them on table one, page 12 of our report. the cost to the city over the initial five-year term is 2.3 million under the terms of the lease, and there is an option to renew the lease for an additional five years after the end of this lease, and we recommend approval. >> chair fewer: thank you very much. let's open this up for public comment. are there any members of the public that would like to comment on item number seven? seeing none, public comment is now closed. i would like to make a motion to move this to the full board with a positive rec

any further additions for either our calender or any other considerations? >> yes. >> the first one that i am interested in and since california had passed the legislations to recognize third gender, in their identification driver's license and i.d., i think that that would -- we should revisit the whole data questions, how we collect that and how it's retracted in our health record moving forward. it seems like another monkey wrench but it's important for us, the commission to know like what our plan is. >> i noted that, commissioner. >> thank you. >> and so, commissioners, i would also point out that we are considering the possibility of meeting in china town as our off site meeting some time in the summer calender for august the sixth. if there are further suggestions, but we have not met in china town for probably at least a decade and it would seem appropriate at this time to do that. >> that was a long time ago. so, otherwise, we'll go on to our next item. >> item 12, a report back from the february 26th, 2018 meeting. so the february 26th meeting, too

any other comments or questions? any other public comment? thank you. colleagues, any comments? >> supervisor mar: i just wanted to thank mr. hill and mr. theriault for your commitment to our bridge board. we really thank you for all of your service, and i very much support you being reappointed. thank you. >> chair ronen: okay. is there a motion? >> supervisor walton: definitely looking forward to working with all of you, and i would like to make a motion that we forward this with a positive recommendation for sabrina hernandez for seat one -- [inaudible] >> chair rone >> chair ronen: thank you. is there any other items on the agenda? >> clerk: that completes the agenda. >> chair ronen: thank you. then this meeting is adjourned. >> my name is amanda [inaudible] over see the girls sports program. when i came to san francisco and studied recreation and parks and towerism and after i graduated i moved to candlestick park and grain r gain adlot of experience work with the san francisco 49 and [inaudible] be agfemale in a vore sports dynamic facility. i coached volo ball on the side

do you have any questions? all the details are in the item in your binder, and we have done some promotion on social media. we wrote a blog's well, so if you want to push information through your channels about it, all the information is there. >> thank you, very much. i just had some thoughts about that, the art and music in san francisco is suffering right now due to affordability, and part of the reason it is suffering is because it doesn't always make economic sense, like dollars and cents to actually have live music in your venues, specially if you are a smaller venue that doesn't specifically exist as a music venue. so that came out of an ongoing dialogue that we have had with the f. -- office of economic and workforce development on how to make more sense for small venues for places to actually have musicians and pay them to exist in san francisco. so this is just a spectacular idea to have a funds that people can apply to for soundproofing. there is not a venue out there or a small bar or restaurant tha

at any rate, thank you. >> chair fewer: okay. supervisors, any other comments? okay. i think there's been two requests here. one is the exact number of loans, and i hear you can get us that information in a timely manner. would two weeks be enough time? [inaudible] >> chair fewer: excuse me. speak into the microphone? >> no, i don't think so. i think we'd need at least 30 days. >> chair fewer: and then secondly, the name of the supervisors that the mayor's office of housing has actually spoken to about conceding some of the this power -- some of this power that the board has. we can get the names of the supervisors. so two items that we are requesting today, and that is the exact number of loans and then also the names of the supervisors that the director of the mayor's office of housing has actually spoken to about this, and then, i believe my colleague, supervisor peskin would be holding a hearing. in light of miss kirk patrick, that you had mentioned that this is a timely matter, and this could postpone. so we hear this quite often, and occasionally, it is not accu

any other public comment?em, please. >> clerk: item six is other commission business. >> vice president moller caen: madam secretary, is it at this point we discuss the rules of order? >> clerk: no, that is item number 11. >> vice president moller caen: okay. commissioners, any business to speak of? okay. next item, please. >> clerk: item seven is the 2017-2018 annual financial statement. >> good afternoon, commissioners, i'm the deputy chief financial officer, and i'm here to present the 2017-18 audited financial statements. i'm also joined today by nancy rose, kmg, llp, who will present the rest of the figures. may i have the slides, thank you. i'm pleased to report to the commission that the p.u.c. issued its fiscal year 17-18 audited financial statements on january 25, 2019. this also marks the second year of the cleanpowersf's financial statements and these are presented within the hetch hetchy water and power's report. kpmg aan independent material auditor noted with no material misstatements in the fina

conflicts of any sort. even the appearance of conflicts can lead to a lot of instability with the pension and trust that it is being run properly. but actually having conflicts can be detrimental to the performance in a substantial way. so this should be taken into account by the board of supervisors as they confirm an appointee to the requirement board. additionally, someone of strong world character is required. this is a very robust fund, as the supervisors have mentioned earlier today, and it is doing quite well. there are a lot of political needs facing the city at this time. it is very easy to sometimes take advantage of some of the funds to solve political funds. i'll speed up on some of these factors. one will be to work through the best interests of beneficiaries. the primary purpose of this is so folks can have a stable retirement when they retire. it is very important that person take that into account. and we want a diverse board, equally composed of men and women. it is very important. and the

so those indictments specifically ruled out any knowing involvement of any american.should have been shut down a year-plus ago. but instead we had a year-plus of low rent indictments by an out of control special counsel. i'm glad king mueller is finally stepping down. i don't think harassment will end. but if there is not an apology in the report, there ought to be. lou: that's a good point. i'm a fella who over the course of my life and career, i never sought either thank yous or apologies. you can move on rather neatly from both and you should never rely on either. the president has to be feeling very good tonight about the fact that there are no further indictments, that the attorney general himself is considering making as much of this public as possible. he wouldn't do so, if it were in any violation of department of justice guidelines which would prohibit making known information about those who are not charged. so it looks like it is a very good moment for this president. >> i think the attorney general is on the side of transparency. we would probably sue for

the question of whether there was or was not any coordination or conspiracy or any collusion between anyone associated with the presidential campaign and anyone in russia was not presented in this case, period. therefore it was not resolved one way or the other by this case. manafort's lawyer hears that and then goes outside on the courtroom step and says the john conceded there was no evidence of russian collusion in this case. this is not subtle, right? this was not hard to grasp from the judge. this is not some little nuance in manafort's criminal case. this is the judge bluntly saying what has been true from this case from the beginning, which is that this case, this judge, this court did not consider the case of russian collusion. that's not what the charges against manafort was about. this is about different stuff. this is not about your hamburglarring. this is about reckless driving, whether or not you're a dastardly hamburglar. but given that, given that manafort's lawyers had just heard the judge say that moments before, they know that to be the truth about their client's ca

happy to answer any questions. >> chair ronen: all right. so any questions? no? no questions. this makes total sense, and i really appreciate you bringing this forward, and i would be happy to cosponsor this legislation. i think it's really important, and i appreciate you filling this -- this small but very important gap. >> oh, thank you. happy that you would be a cosponsor. >> chair ronen: thank you. is there any member of the public who would like to comment on this item? if so, will ache have two minutes. seeing none, public comment is closed. -- if so, you'll have two minutes. seeing none, public comment is closed. [gavel]. >> chair ronen: on this item? without objection, this item moves forward with a positive recommendation. [gavel]. >> chair ronen: thank you, miss smith. mr. clerk, can you please read item number three. >> clerk: would you like me to read all the a-b items or just all at one time because we have some applicants that are applying for all three. >> chair ronen: i have a question for the city attorney. is it possible for an applicant to serve on more than

i don't know if you had any more questions about schiff. none of you asked. >> you don't think those two men could maybe offer support for the president since republicans yesterday -- some were saying didn't really offer as much support for the president as they would like to see? >> why don't we talk about infrastructure? why don't we talk about our opioid epidemic and how we can cure that? why don't we talk about health care? why don't we talk about raising prices of drugs? there are so many things we can talk about. there are so many things that are -- american families are talking around their kitchen table, i don't believe what the democrats are putting as their agenda is what america's looking for. thank you very much. >> thank you.

any discussion? any comments from the public? seeing then, should we take a vote? >> yes, please vote. >> all in favor? >> aye. >> any opposed? >> great. >> motion is approved. we will move onto item number 4 which is approval with possible modification of the minutes of the january 29th, 2019 meeting i will move to approve the minutes. >> second. >> any comments? >> i don't have the minutes in my pocket, do you have the minutes in your pocket? >> yes. >> that's okay, i got it early. >> is there any public comment on this item? seeing no public comment. we will move onto item number 5 -- >> no, do we approve the minutes as written? >> all in favor say aye. >> aye. >> item number 5, presentation from the sfmta about the 2014 transportation and road improvement bonds and possible action by the committee in response to such a presentation. >> good morning committee, my name is leo, i am the chief financial officer for the san francisco-will transportation agency, thank you for hearing our quarterly update today on our general obligation bond program. next slide. thank

if you have have any questions, let me know. >> any questions for miss culsa? >> are there any municipal utilities or districts that took a significant part of the grid or other aspects that allowed them to form through eminent domain? is that something that has happened before? do we have examples to look to toward that? >> the municipal districts have the power of eminent domain. i don't know of any specific instances and, perhaps, barbara has antidotes but i know that power has been used in california to acquire infrastructure, as these new utilities were just being formed. >> anything of the scale we would be talking about, maybe? >> so this has happened over time in california. more recent times city of moreno valley municipalized and the irrigation district is about the middle of a process now, ongoing for a number of years. i would have to look at history to see if there's any in the more distant past that are of the size comparable to what we're talking about. i'd be happy to, through your executive officer, you know, do that research and provide that i

conceivably, the courts could move to arrest any executives of the firm if any of them are in the united states or transiting through the united states. conceivably the courts could try to seize or freeze assets associated with the firm or with that foreign government to the extent that the u.s. has access to them. i mean, how important is the information the special counsel was subpoenaing them for? now that the special counsel is wrapping up the investigation. and honestly, bottom line, can we just please figure out who this is? one thing to watch at this hearing tomorrow when they have this hearing in the mystery case is and i think this has been lost on a lot of people watching this case as it proceeded in the shadows and under seal, one thing to watch when we get this hearing tomorrow is that the company in question and the foreign country in question, they are not the ones who want their identity sealed. according to court ctly happy to everyone know they are the country and company fighting the subpoena. they don't care if their identity is exposed. it's et special counsel's offic

any questions from commissioners? any public comment on this? >> you'll all excuse me because i was down at public technology. you all had a full board, where i can speak. i go down to the corner, where i see nobody that looks like me. i'm glad to see this talk about blacks and minorities, but it's just not this department that i'm down here to talk about. my name is ace, and as you know, i'm on the case. i go to sleep black, and when i wake up, i'm black, so you can't take that black. i'm here to ask you all, what are you about right now? we are in a state of emergency as black folks. i don't got no relatives in africa, have never lived in africa. the closest relative i've got is george washington. let me just say starting today and going forward, until this active board of supervisors call for a hearing on a couple of issues, on the out outmigratetioutmigration in the fillmore -- you all talk about these projects happening in the city by the bay? let me tell you what's on my caseload, and you will know them case by case by case. right now i'm

any other comment? no further comment, so public comment on eyesed 1 through a -- items 1 through -- 5 through d are closed. next item. [agenda item read]. >> president hirsch: we previously approved in january rules for administrative appeal, and that came out of a meet and confer process and a mediated arbitration with professor gould. and we setup a structure for appealing disciplinary matters which was and is intended to be just a short-term fix that was necessitated by the morgado decision. we've been working on -- commissioner elias and i have been working on this for quite sometime, since you started on the commission and myself even before that, introducing a charter amendment that history would stay in the commission. it's been the opinion in this city for -- discipline would stay in the commission. we currently have a system that i don't think everybody is satisfied with, where a decision by seven members of this decision can be appealed to one administrative law judge which really in my opini

any comments? no? i'll just mention that last week, we had further information to clarify this contract. i think we are -- i mean, i -- you know, i was very vested in this because i understand that west side is the only provider providing culturally competent services for african american clients and wanted to make sure they would get any technical assistance that they needed, but also made sure that it wasn't from 180 to 80 participants and 80 is the number they were actually serving. that even though you had slots for 130, they were actually serving 80. >> that's my understanding. in negotiations between the department and west side, they reached that number. >> chair fewer: and because i think there's such high need, i'm wondering, what is the ultimate goal? is the ultimate goal that the intensive case management program would grow to 130 participants or is it the goal that they would stay at 80? >> the goal right now is to continue the contract the way it is. the department is undergoing a rede

the person that was responsible for this project has no reason -- has not given any -- any evidence that for 24 hours he neither checked his e-mail or voice mail and could have stopped this from happening. last thing i'll say is in formulating a remedy to all of this, i appreciate that the applicant has offered to cover my costs, and i would say as a sign of good faith, if you are ultimately to fashion a remedy here, i would more than welcome troubling that and giving it to friends of the urban forest who is right now the only entity planting trees on the streets of san francisco. thank you. >> commissioner honda: thank you, sir. >> clerk: thank you. miss pelosi? you have three minutes. >> thank you. i want to clarify a statement that i made earlier. i think it was in response to a question that you asked me about webcor's involvement, and i think it's important to clarify the conditions of the job site had changed that made us -- made us change our approach to whether the trees needed to be removed and therefore apply for the application to remove them. it is -- it does have to do with
