generally all employees are provided an employee handbook issued by the city and county of san francisco. vice chair studley: how big? >> not too big. in the employee handbook, there's reference to the ethics commission, also to conflict of interest laws and state of incompatibility. the handbook itself doesn't summarize every single rule but i believe employees are advised to contact the ethics commission if they have any questions. that's number one. number two is that when our commission -- when our staff provides ethics training and we have done that for a number of departments in the past, especially when we're dealing with the statements of incompatible activities, when we're rolling them out, we talk about the rules that governor city employees, in particular, post-employment rules. we have not hit every single department and one of them is timing issue, one of them is whether or not the other department has space available for us to provide the training. but we try to do that. we do let people know, do let other departments know that we are available to provide training. the thir

what were the employees thinking? i think the savings or the revenues but will be generated, i do not think it would be announced -- enough to risk a moral issue. i think we have an issue if we take something away that is not going to benefit costus. i think it is time we realized set free parking is no longer feasible. if we are going to contribute to the city, we should not have to pay the going rate for parking, but we should pay something for parking. i am not sure what i would be, but we need to look at that. we need to do away with transfers. all it did was caused people to throw it out the window, operators tossing transfers out the window. i know because i saw it happen, so but is not going to work, and so i would rather not see it go away. i think that is a bad idea. we need to start charging in downtown business scenarios parking on sundays. we need to look at how about is going to go, and we need to explore every possible avenue to kill the revenue the is going to keep our system not only saves but driving.

this is an attack on public employees. other public employees throughout the state have this. san francisco employees do not have this as a result of proposition c, which you all voted for. commissioner campos: thank you. this is public comment on the 2011 annual report. thank you. is there anyone from the public that would like to comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. please call item 16. >> my apologies. this is an action item. i know that the house has changed. >> [roll call] the item passes. commissioner campos: thank you. again, we want to think the executive director and his staff for the work that went into the annual report. please call item 16. >> introduction of new items. this is an information item. commissioner campos: is there anyone from the public that would like to comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. colleagues, any new items that you want to reduce? madam clerk, please call item 17. >> public comment. commissioner campos: this is an opportunity for the public to revive public comment on any item within the juris

. -- 300 declassified employees. we would like to thank the labor relations portion of human resources for working with us to resolve this matter. we think this committee as well for reviewing this and hopefully of proving it. thank you. chairperson farrell: thank you very much. next speaker. >> my name is douglas yep. i used to work at san francisco general hospital. i am a little puzzled by this mou. mainly i am puzzled as to why it was assigned to this committee. it seems this is a financial matter rather than an audit and oversight matter. i do not know whether it actually belongs here. i have a feeling that maybe it is here because there is something else to do on this committee. i find that a little hard to believe, but maybe i am wrong. i would like to thank mr. feldman for his comments. he is part of the new 1021. in my opinion, it is a vast improvement over the previous 1021 i had to endure with. hopefully, this mou, whichever way it goes, will benefit the union. hopefully, the union will continue to improve

the federal -- all the focus has been on federal employees, the direct employees of federal agencies. but the government employs indirectly an even larger number of contract employees than it does federal employees and they work side by side with federal employees often doing work that is arguably inherently governmental that should be performed by federal employees but we'll put that to the side for a minute. they have not been subject to any kind of pay freeze and in fact we've been working on legislation with representative tonko of new york and senators boxer and grassley. they've both introduced legislation that would cap contractor salaries. right now the most highly compensated contractor employees can get compensated by taxpayers for up to about $700,000 a year. and an unlimited number of employees of any given contractor can be paid -- can be compensated by taxpayers for even more than that. the senate legislation, boxer and grassly, would limit it to the salary of the president of the united states, 400,000. representative tonko's bill says capnet secretary salary 200,000 is

over 85% of our employee base lives in san francisco. most of them are renters and use public transportation. they must spend their wages in san francisco restaurants and bars. our employees enjoy many benefits including the highest wages in the industry and a starting pay rate over minimum wage. we also offer a 401k. we have a very high retention rate. over 50% of our employees have been with us for over a year. we have a strong culture of development and most of our supervisors and managers have been promoted from within. we are a very good employe year. we hire locally and we pay well. we offer excellent benefits that had many long-term employees. we're the kind of business that is great for san francisco. we're looking forward to growing our business but we can only do this if we have the resources and infrastructure for additional staff. i strongly support this project. thank you. >> thank you. >> hello. i have lived in the neighborhood for 32 years. i have raised my daughter in the neighborhood also. we are lucky to have an aquatic

however, there would also be no pay raises for city employees, and employees will have to pay higher out of pocket costs for medical and prescription drug coverage. right now, city employees pay no deductible on their medical bills, and officials say few make any co-payments. this is a move that would reduce the city's healthcare costs by up to $25 million a year, and officials say this proposed budget also closes a $48 million deficit in the budget. now, this is something that will be unveiled later today at a spending meeting here at city hall. reporting live, jennifer franciotti, wbal-tv 11 news. >> jen, thank you. meanwhile, other cost-cutting measures to save the city some cash could result in handing over the keys to some of the city's historical landmarks. sources tell 11 news the city is considering leasing options for 15 different historic sites, like the city's war memorial and the tower in order to raise revenue. the board of estimates is waiting to approve the consulting contract later today to determine the market value of those properties. you can see the full list of l

i have 15 or 20 employees. we're down to five right now. every time this comes out we hire more people. one of the experiences i do have is in permitting. i spend a lot of time at dpw, health department, with restaurants and coffee shops and hardware stores. you name it. this is where i find i am an asset to the small business commission. a lot of people -- they have no idea what to face. and it is tough. ada, accessibility, what type of accessibility? who d.c., what you do? i have learned how to do this. i want to make it easier. want to see it much easier. for conditional use, i have restaurant where helping folks serve in north beach. it cost them $1,700 to come. all -- not only is it taking money but time. in the meantime, a lot of these people when they reach the space they have no idea what they're getting into. there will say, i will give you three months and it did not have to start paying rent. they are into it for six or nine months and they are paying rent. that is where i come in.

i know that some people will be questioning the skips, for the zone of 70 employees. people are questioning that. i want to give a little bit of perspective on that issue. remember in 2008, we went ahead and approved a strategic plan. in that plan, we talked about equity access, accountability, and keeping our promises to communities and families. we talked about ultimately student achievement. we talked about that. if you continue to do we have always done, you'll always get we'll always got. we talked about could we make schools good enough so people can say is good enough for my own child and i would be willing to place my child in that school. wei will quote something from te strategic plan. we believe access and equity are at the heart of making social justice a reality. the politics and ideologies of social justice are empty without daily actions that improve the living and learning conditions of the children in san francisco. when you talk about "what we skip" not only this strategic plan, but proper way. -- but prop a. we identified some of our lowest performi

those employees could be facing trouble. the refusal could be considered insubordination and subject the employee to disciplinary action. this retired employee is not sure she would have signed it, but she said some people should. >> upper management, they definitely need to sign it. >> the attorney general's office refused to say if anybody would be fired for refusing to sign the pledge. a source told us it is unlikely anybody will lose their jobs for this. not every d.c. employee is required to sign the oath. members of the d.c. council and their staff are exempt. >> thank you. coming up on abc 7 news at 5:00 plans to open up a new restaurant in d.c. is facing harsh opposition because of where it would go. >> the wait is over. see who is the first to get their hands on new technology. we will announce the winner of our ipad giveaway. >> a carnival ride goes wrong when a child goes flying off. turn left. the passat is one of nine volkswagen models named a 2012 iihs top safety pick. not...that... we'd ever brag about it... t

it took a lot of stress away from the other employees. it was a great program. i hope it can be reinstated at some point. thank you very much. >> first off, i would like to say thank you to everyone who pushed for the program. my boss, scott, the mayor, people at the career link office. this has been at not only the start of a new career, but it has helped me and my family in a lot of ways. i am and mother of four children. i have learned a lot. i have insurance. i first heard of this program when i was working temporary at the summer legend snack program. so everyone was worried, you know, it is the last day of work, what are we going to do? and of this young lady said, well, i heard of this stimulus program, and it was september of 2009. and i said, yes, and i told everyone from then on. i said, there is a stimulus program, everyone, just go. the was so excited, and i was there every day trying to look for a job. i am very, very lucky to work for the insurance company. everyone there is just wonderful. i am thankful to be part of such a wonderful program, jobs

the company pays for it or their employee does. they can take the bicycle overnight from the hotel to their home and bring it back for their work shift. just so you know, that does exist. i do not know how you can force that. i do not know if it makes it more complicated. president fong: any other general overall comments? commissioner miguel: i was going to make a motion. i would move the department recommendations with two specific comments. one on the schenic sp -- scenic special sign district, that time and enforcemetnt be covered. and maybe refer to political science for consistency. the other -- i quote from your summary. in the scientific natural life -- the sign's natural life, i think that is such a nebulous phrase that i do not know how you would deal with it. i do not know, trying to think quickly on it, how else you might defy it. however, i do feel that the comments of the zoning administrator, which i appreciate -- i know that our by the book. you have both major and minor firms who decide, after 100 years of business

, 55 employees, maybe even 100 employees. >> correct, once you -- once you pass that magic number, 50, then you are going to be under a different requirement. and you are going to be under potential penalties if you do not follow the law as it is currently written. >> miss killby, we've heard though there are tax credits that will offset that problem. >> not true. when you are having employees in this range as we do, employees of the numbers between 25 and 49, we are not eligible for those tax credits. that was the low employees of 25. -- below employees of 25, we fall into one of those holes and when those credits are not available, then you are looking again day by day at all of your revenue and -- [ indiscernible ] >> arvene killby, you'll be watching what happens in the courts very closely over next couple of days. thank you for joining us. >> we certainly will and thank you so much for asking me to join you. >>> and coming up in the next hour, we'll have the other side of the debate. a small business owner who's in support of the health care law because it's helping his bottom li

your proposal would have us do that through the jobs site, through employer/employee contribution. everybody is giving lip service to universal coverage. but some people are just simply saying employers ought to just offer it, without making a contribution. some others are saying that what we ought to do is require each individual to go out and buy insurance and, again, no requirement that employers play any role. how is it that you came to this conclusion that we needed to require employers, large and small, and all employees, to participate in paying for health insurance? >> well, mr. waxman, i think that you've pointed out what is one of the critical features of the president's plan. and for all of the members of this committee who have struggled with the costs of health care and how we would achieve universal coverage, you know that there are really only three general ways to approach this. and we have looked at all three. the first would be a large, broad-based tax that would replace the existing private sector contributions. that would mean it would replace the existing emplo

if the employee wants to be productive, a well-intended employee wants to be productive, just to send an e- mail to a colleague, and bounces off, so they drag it in dropbox and send it publicly, and suddenly all your data is in the cloud whether you like it or not, and the cio has no clue. the consumerization challenge is the challenge for adoption of the cloud. broadly, from an automation perspective, it is the case that for the omission build you a much more reliable concept. i happen to be a passionate fan of the models being built because their entire business depends on doing a good job. so you can bet they will have far more highly incentivize people, but fewer people, and lots more software. so i appreciate that perspective. as a practical reality, we see customers come to us every day. >> one of the very nice things is you can move consumption from this model to a consumption model, which is really important here that is a key change. that you no longer have to buy stuff and stand it up and pay for software licenses. you can simply read them. that is a phenomenal change becaus

well, of course, disgruntled employee. we're terrific to our clients and employees.hen they wrote across the firm at all levels 89% of you said that the firm provides exceptional services to them. if the employees want to keep collecting millions of dollars in paychecks said that we're great we must be great. 89% of you said it. it's not surprising that goldman sachs wants to strike out against greg smith, but what's interesting is how the media has reacted to that. let's do media watch. all right. first we start with fox news. of course fox news does not like it when you attack the banks or tell the truth about it. no, they got to fight back in favor of goldman sachs. let's watch. >> there is a degree of celebration. you have ten years as vice president, and you don't make mv you're going to be mad. your bonuses are capped. >> right. >> he probably didn't make a good bonus this year. >> oh, of course he's a bitter employee protector goldman sachs. protect them. that's what fox news does. they protect the powerful and the bankers. here is forbes. smith who apparently

there are 80 employees today. by early next year, there will be 150 new employees, so that difference will take advantage of that payroll tax. thank you very much. the second announcement i want to make in this excitement is that we talked about how to make this area safer and cleaner. while the substation is being constructed and built and the chief's already made that commitment, we've already made the commitment that will keep the mobile van right here in front of the sixth street site, so that the officers know the commitment is very strong and you're going to see officers walking this beat very visibly. at the same time, we're not just content with police. community policing is not just about them. it's about how the community responds. there's a program i was responsible to help create, when there was some degrees of violence in the third street corridor last year, and we responded with a very positive program called the community ambassador program. and we've taken that idea, working very closely with my ve
