when they said formative assessment it was broad. there were diagnostic assessments that schools gave. they also listed the districts and formative assessment. this year we have got the cle, the common learning assessment. i wanted to look. it was 0.77, very high. on a scale of 0 to one for yearly. 0.7 billion mass districtwide. every -- at every assessment we could have predicted the results. schools that used formative assessment to inform the start -- instruction and have great structures that can share with others are e.r. taylor. there are many schools that have a lot of grade level planning' and use instructions to guide their delivery. these are the examples we stated. schools that have made a commitment to a balanced literacy model with reading and writing focus against schools in the mission zone. the data for them is listed in parenthesis. the next page will tell you about schools. the show's intentionally. schools that had a focus. thi-- this shows intentionality. schools showed their focus on achieving the gap. there was

new additions that are non- assessible. if you put new solar energy systems until january 1, 2010, like solar hot water heating, that does not trigger additional taxes. bathroom renovations, which include structural changes or plumbing changes, kitchen structural changes and upgrades of the system, taking the entire house or a portion of the house down to the studs, or a change in use from one to another -- residential to commercial or whatever -- they will consider the new assessed bellevue. repair, replacement of fixtures with similar quality is not assessible. plumbing to copper is not. replacement of circuit breakers. dry rot or termite repair is a non-assessible maintenance. replacing windows, doors, roofing, and ventilating and air-conditioning repairs. >> i could have a kitchen remodel. a home owner may get their permits and have their permits signed off and eventually the department of building inspection notifies the assessor's office that the homeowner did a kitchen remodel and they have a formula. the up their pr

i have a quick question on the assessment funds. are we working with the city assessor's office to follow up with these property owners? we did this with homeowners and small property owners. >> there is a lean on their property. our -- a lien on their property. we will be working with them to get those assessments. supervisor kim: could our office get an update on that? >> sure. >> basically, the property assessments on the property tax roll are treated the same way as property taxes. if you do not pay the first installment of their tax, there would not accept a first installment. they have to be paid in full with each installment. by the end of the fiscal year, if there is anything owed in that particular tax, they get all the late payment reminders from the city, the leaves are put on the property. it is the same process. -- the liens are put on the property. i do know they send regular notices about property-tax assessments. supervisor kim: there is another process the assessor goes through with the property owners if they have

lisa pagan, and the property owners are assessed. assessments go out on the property tax bill, and they are due at the same time the property tax is due. in other districts, not this one, businesses could be directly assessed. we do have one in the fisherman's wharf area on the port side, but this is a property based district, some property owners are assessed, so -- supervisor cohen: all property owners, whether you are a commercial space or in residential >> within the boundaries of the management plan, yes. >> but just to clarify, alisa, some of the tenants have passthroughs, and the property owners will be passing through their costs. that is not a universal thing. some of the leases prohibit a pastor, but in many cases, it will be the retailers who will be paying the cost. supervisor cohen: ok, lisa, could you describe the outreach? >> lisa, if i could take that one? this mini benefit district has been discussed at pretty much every community meeting in emergency meeting i have attended since 2009. i think even the concept of it

it involves assessing buildings, rapid assessment and engineering evaluation. all of that information is involved and very comprehensive training and is really important to get their freshers on a regular basis as things change. another important activity is a national information management system. it operates under the incident command system. these are freshers will be provided over the next year as part of a multi-year training plan based on the national preparedness guidelines target capabilities list. there is a huge book and here are the ideal situations in terms of rare -- preparedness and recovery elements. the gap you analyze between where you want to be and where you need to go -- once you identify the gap, there are training resources that are plugged into that. the ultimate goal is a financial one -- now you can qualify for grants to meet these objectives. another aspect is the community action plan for seismic safety. we have been attending regular weekly educational seminars to obtain the latest information from technical experts to have been bro

the total annual assessment collected are approximately $535,000. the organization will be up for renewal in 2013. so again, this shows the boundary of the community benefit district which is between fifth and ninth streets. on market street, mainly on the south portion but also parcel on the north side, including areas of mission and two other streets. the organization's budget -- trina will be going over this more thoroughly. the budget is divided into various categories including safety which is 65% of the organization's budget. district identity and streetscape improvements which is 5%, administrative and operations, 20%, and contingency budget of 10%. for 2011, the budget was allocated as such, 404,000 toward education and safety and programs and initiatives. 33,004 district identity and streetscape improvements. administrative and organizational operations, up 28,115. -- at 28,115. i will be discussing service is prompt -- programs and services. they are designed to respond to the unique challenges of the neighborhood and the needs of the comm

more of them are taking and passing the high school assessment. tim tooten is live in the newsroom with more on maryland student performance. >> the progress at times has been slow, but while more students are graduating, a growing number of them are putting school across the state to work. top officials found reason to celebrate. >> the state's high school valuation numbers are the highest they have been in 15 years. they include all graduates, not just those who finished in four years. statewide, the graduation rate is 85%. 71% in baltimore city, and 83.1% in baltimore county. in other parts of the state, the graduation rate is 95% in carroll county, 85.7% in hartford county, and 85.9% in howard county. the good news is even if it takes five years, students understand the goal. they are staying in school. our teachers are doing a better job of delivering instruction. i think you see that reflected in what we feel are positive steps. >> there were more signs of progress on the new hampshire as a high-school assessments. last year students met the

it appears in the special assessments midsection. i think there was more than one year for this property owner. had he closed those cases out -- which we are now doing for him -- going back to the tax collector to see if he paid those taxes. it had to do with his lack of response for paying for our time to get us to do extended code enforcement. >> is there any additional public comments? >> just in hearing the issue with q-matic, something that came to mind. i have answered a lot of questions about surveys, new things in the housing code, things that we have to implement. seeing the responses from our customers, one thing that may need to be considered, i know that there are mine turns on some floors of the department. one thing that was very effective with the brown bag lunches for the videos that were done, which were then displayed on a loop, at any time something new occurs. they can say, this is a new program. it will go through a five-minute loop, and you could also do it in different languages. that would help our customers a

on the question of kansas assessments, how much time would week -- on the question of case assessment, how much time would we need to use that time to thoroughly evaluate? he said a six-month advance is what the law provides, but what is our internal process? >> it should be that we get the case, and we're reviewing it. the first review we are going to do is going to be, do we need to put an additional terms and conditions of their probation? we have to get back to them with the information. the agent -- they then have to adjust their release that the inmate actually signs while he or she is in prison. that is the first workload that we have to do. then we have to develop a pre- release plan, every entry plan, and do a risk and needs assessment. the most critical work, the first phase of it, is looking at the cases to determine if there's anyone that we want to put on mandatory electronic monitoring, those types of things, and get that back to them. then what happens is that the pre-release team would review that and develop the reentry plan. the reentry plan, as you will see later in

be violation should never have been assessed -- the violations should never have been assessed. we are asking that it be remedied today, taken away. thank you. president chiu: next speaker. >> thank you. my name is ethan. this is regarding 215 noey street. this goes back to 2003. the owners bought the apartment complex in 2000, and there was a complete by a neighbor in 2006. the owners got a permit. they wanted to see if they could replace the tenants in a different location. they were unable to do that. be permit lapsed. they got the permit reinstated at the end of 2006. dbi gave them more time to do an eviction. the tenet that the san francisco board of appeals -- tenant got the san francisco board of appeals to stay the permanent. since then, there has been no action. there has been no action by dbi. dbi issued a fine for non- compliance. our clients are between a rock and a hard place. the cannot fix the unit. the need to either get a permit and suspended or get other people into the property, and that is what we're looking for. president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> go

i was taught -- involved in the assessment of the breakdown. one thing that was very obvious to me -- there had been breakdowns in police leadership, but also in the whole criminal justice system. the prosecutors were too willing to hear a story that was not believable. there were members of the defense that did not do their job the way that they should have. and they should have been more circumspect about what was being presented. one of the main reasons i am here today, is because i have this very strong commitment to the reef formation of the system. any system that incarcerates people at the rate that we do in our country and our state -- the implications that this has had in minority communities, 70 people -- 70% of the people that we incarcerate -- this is a system based on punitive measures. this indicates that we have to fix the system and that is why i am here today. we have to fix this. >> john ray is a direct question. if you are presented with evidence that the police officers have committed perjury, or if you have this attorney in

on the question of kansas assessments, how much time would week -- on the question of case assessmentw much time would we need to use that time to thoroughly evaluate? he said a six-month advance is what the law provides, but what is our internal process? >> it should be that we get the case, and we're reviewing it. the first review we are going to do is going to be, do we need to put an additional terms and put an additional terms and conditions of their probation?

this data comes from the compass instrument, were they assessed every one of these cases. as you can see, what they estimate, the state prison, that the needs are, and this is based upon actual assessment, 72.3% need substance-abuse services. 67.5% vocational education. residential services. homelessness, 54.6%. financial, 62.9%. employment, 51%. social, 77.2%. again, a very needy and complex population. supervisor chu: thank you for your presentation. the budget analyst is going to go into the report. i know there is going to be a place where the department is not in agreement. perhaps i can ask you to address that after the budget analyst has made the presentation. >> thank you. >> madam chair, supervisor mirkarimi, as has been stated, and we note this on the bottom of page 11 of our report, the total fiscal year 2011-2012 in county funding available for this public safety realignment plan is $10.5 million, and that includes the dollar sign4.7 million that the board of supervisors previously approaches -- appropriated. and then the $5.8 million in state funds, which is o

kappa, 85%, an alternate performance assessment. cme is 33%. special ed students and the distribution for the mouth -- math test and results are presented on the next two slides. with that, we will move on to other measures. in terms of other measures, the first thing we want to look at is algebra. enrollment in algebra and performance in algebra. algebra is considered in research as the gatekeeper to graduation. looking at this gatekeeper for graduation, you will find the district has increased the number of eighth graders taking algebra. so we have increased the access to courses in algebra. we still maintain our proficiency level as over half the students or 51.6% of the students had proficient -- were proficient. if you look at a five-year trend on kc, the passing grade has been pretty constant at 77%. in math, and has been -- it has been at 81% throughout these five years. again, very constant passing grades for 10th

we're going to be using a risk and needs assessment for each of the offenders, and we're going to create an individualized treatment in rehab plan. we will have pre-release officers and social worker teams that will go into the jail, and we will be dealing with a package coming to us from state prison to develop the reentry plan. the pre-release team will have the responsibility for the planning. the deputy probation officers included in the plan will have supervision responsibilities. the case load rishel is established that 50-1 for the prcs population. in the analysis that was done by mr. rose's of this, it identifies what our ratio is. it identifies it as the lower ratio than what we actually have. that is for the overall department, because we have a mandatory law where we have to prepare pre-sentence investigation reports that have nothing to do with supervision. we have a significant cadres of staff responsible for doing the report. when you basically back out that population and you add in the population that is not on official probation, but they're under court-ordered supervisi

they say they need to determine the total amount of radioactivity to assess the impact of the disaster on the sea. >>> tepco says it will begin stress tests on two reactors at its nuclear plant in niigata prefecture. the reactors are currently out of service due to regular checkups. tepco says it'll conduct the first stage of the safety assessments on the number one and seven reactors of the plant starting on friday. in july, the government introduced an additional safety assessment as a response to the fukushima daiichi crisis. the stress test uses computer simulations to assess how well nuclear power plants can withstand earthquakes, tsunami, and the loss of external power. the first stage is required for restarting reactors that were halted. but the governor of niigata prefecture has expressed caution. the governor has said conducting stress tests will not lead to the prefecture approving the rumgs of such reactors. he said his prefecture will not make a decision until the results of the accident are published. a tepco official says the company wants to confirm the safety of the pla
