my apologies. >> good morning, chair cohen, members of the committee. as mr. wagner pointed out, the implementation of the new medical records system has been in the ict plan. the supervisors did appropriate funds in the 17-18 and 18-19 budget for this contract, the contract itself, the base contract is 149 million over ten years, or approximately 14.9 million peryear. dph has also included a 12% contingency in this contract, but in our discussions with them, the contingency of that $18 million would only be used at dph's sole discretion for unexpected increases or service increases that are not currently anticipated, and we recommend approval. >>supervisor cohen: thank you. i appreciate that. based on that recommendation, colleagues, do we have a motion. >>supervisor yee: i'll make a motion. >>supervisor cohen: and the motion is to do what? >>supervisor yee: pass this motion with a positive recommendation to the full board. >>supervisor cohen: as a full report. mr. cleyunk, did you get that >> clerk: yes, to make a full recommendation with the report. >>super

good morning, chair cohen and members of the committee. i will be presenting on the report of the budget review process. in response to a request from supervisor cohen's office, we conducted a survey of how comparable cities and counties conduct their budget processes. these included california cities with mayors and other peer cities with similar characteristics to san francisco. in all, we surveyed eight california counties, six california cities, and nine u.s. cities. the primary areas of focus for our review included independent analysis and reporting, the two-year budget cycle, and the timing of the legislative bodies review. we reviewed major trends, particularly in the general fund over the past five years. our source document for this analysis was the city's comprehensive annual financial report. because the most recent financial statement is dated as of june 30th, 2016, the review period is from 11/12 to 15/16. since fiscal year '11-12, revenues have increased from 3 billion to 5.8 billion and expenditures have increased from 3.1

chair cohen? >>supervisor cohen: no. >> clerk: cohen, no. the motion fails. >>supervisor cohen: the third and final whereas clause says whereas if uasi funding is used for programs that are incompatible with the values and goals the board of supervisors may consider legislation restricting participation in uasi in the future. we can do a roll call vote on that, as well. >> clerk: on that motion, supervisor tang? >>supervisor tang: no. >> clerk: tang, no. supervisor yee? >>supervisor yee: aye. >> clerk: yee, aye. chair cohen? >>supervisor cohen: no. >> clerk: cohen, no. the motion fails. >>supervisor cohen: all right. we have one amendment in item 19 that has been accepted, and i'd like to make a motion to move this forward to the full board with a positive recommendation as amended. >> clerk: madam chair, i believe there's one more amendment to the dem to make the matter retroactive. >>supervisor cohen: that's correct. we can also take that with the final vote. >> clerk: yet. >>supervisor cohen: so we'll accept the amendment from dem as well as the one remain

the last one, i know chair cohen already started making some of these changes, but you could ask for the list by may 1st, so an earlier deadline. you could continue to set district specific amounts, like chair cohen did this year, and really hold offices to those amounts at an earlier date. you could set a minimum amount of addbacks. smaller addbacks have gone up specifically. you could try to revert back to a time where you said all citywide addbacks needed to be 100,000, or whatever is an appropriate level. again, using the spring hearings to hear about enhancement proposals and items that would really inform the addback process, i think would be a good use of your time. thank you again very much for letting me speak on this matter. >> supervisor cohen: thank you for the time and energy you've dedicated to helping guide us through this process. supervisor tang, i see your name on the list. >> supervisor katy tang: thank you. i think it's pretty good idea. speaking about beginning the process earlier, just given the sheer number of things we learn, whether it's mid-may or afterwards

i noted that secretary cohen chairs the cohen group. secretary albright chairs albright stonebridge, so we have to give equal time to our sister consulting firm in washington. i'd ask you the question from this perspective. i just returned from a trip to germany, the czech remix and slovakia. and -- czech republic. and you know this space better than anybody. the czech remix, your native country, we see anti-democratic, nationalist, populist forces taking over two governments, maybe even the czech government. but i came away listening to the europeans, i don't think that they believe that we're any longer the leader of the west the way that every american president -- republican and democrat -- has been deemed to be. is this a fundamental point of departure in how we understand our leadership? >> i'm concerned that it actually is. and let me just say it was terrific always to work with secretary cohen. we proved bipartisanship, and we spent a lot of time together, and it's great to be with you here. let me just say i think there are an a
