out -- i'll come back to my favorite topic, the grant writer, but the homeless services supplied by the san francisco fire department, have we ever put together a figure of what that is? because we're supplying homeless services or services to the homeless population in the city, but we also now have a department of homelessness and we have a department of health. for commissioner veronese to highlight the amount of money over a 10-year period amounts to a billion dollars, is very key. i think it's important for the mayor, the mayor's budget analyst and the citizens of san francisco to understand that these dollars are not reimbursed to us, they have not been reimbursed to us and will not be in the future reimbursed to us because the homeless population is not going down. it takes time for these units that are on the drawing boards to actually go online and be built so people can live in them. so in the past, i don't think we did it last year, but two years ago we wrote a letter to the mayor's office and all the commissioners signed a letter, i think this should be at least the second paragraph in the let
