>> assistant general manager for power, all these city departments will be using hetchy power. i'm not sure if i'm clear on the question you are asking. >> well, aren't there times we can't generate? >> we are still their power provider and we make the arrangements necessary. if, for example, the power houses are down and we aren't generating electricity, we are in the market procuring resources to cover that shortfall, so they are still a hetchy power customer. >> they were never with pg&e? >> there may be situations where they are renting property in another building and pg&e is providing the power. it's very rare in those situations. >> yes, those are important clarifications. there are times because of arrangements the city has made for how departments are housed and what if a sills they are in, if they are in a facility not owned by the city as the general manager mentioned and they don't have a separate electric bill, we have trouble providing them with service. and then of course, there are times when pg&e objects to our provision of service to facilities and we have to w

the tax benefits, generally the city's position has been to advise people that they should consult their tax preparer, but my understanding has been that these benefits are not taxable. >> thank you. >> thank you, bob, again, for that presentation. one quick question. at the last meeting, i think your outreach to the household is about 80%, right? around that figure? and we had recommended to reach out the rest that i'm sure you're doing all options, including certified mail, and you're already making the calls. is that still the case? >> we have a list of all the households, and so we're reviewing that list and what our knowledge and the housing providers's knowledge is of the households and thousand best engage them. the other thing that we're doing is working with arws to get out the summary results in anticipation that as neighbors talk to neighbors and those that have not engaged in the processes that their neighbors are receiving the summary letters that very clearly describe their status that that will also help incentivize people to come in, but we are continuing to pursue trying

stakeholders from across the city as we tried to identify $100 million annually towards the local contribution, toward the overall $22 billion need over the next 27 years. this is a general tax, it is not something that is intended necessarily to be dedicated towards transportation, given the fact that there are so many competing needs in the city. so, that's ultimately revenue that this body would be tasked with figuring out how to prioritize in our city's general fund. what else can i tell you about the tax? today, unfortunately, because supervisor peskin is not here to ask himself, i would ask that your offices should have given you proposed amendments that we have worked with the city attorney's office on to add a category, or go ahead. >> do you have the language? >> yes. sorry, i apologize, you should have gotten a copy for staff. >> thank you. thank you. >> so in addition to the two definitions for those passenger services, vehicle services that would currently be included in this tax, which is transportation network companies, as well as private transportation vehicles on a fixed route, the city attorney's office has given us very good advice that we should plan

that would be a big savings for the city, but in general we are here to support you and your efforts to get this done and do it as fast as possible. >> good to see you, mr. fleck. next speaker please. >> good morning. my name is brad mcmillan, and i have a company that designs and manufactures electronics primarily for the electric power industry where it is used to automate the electric power grid. i am an electronics engineer and worked almost my entire career in this industry, and my family has lived in san francisco since 1854. i am here to address support for migrating to an all-electricity transit system. over the last few decades we have seen rapid advances in clean energy technology, solar panels, utility skill wind farms, electric cars, and ever higher capacity batteries are all undergoing advancements to make them more powerful, easier to use and cheaper. these technologies are being created in response to the problems caused by the burning of fossil fuels. in addition to global warming, the use of fossil fuel causes mountains of coal ash we don't know what to do with, inev

that includes city departments, general fund and enterprise, and mta, puc, and external agencies, like the school district, city college and so on where we are not exactly responsible for what they do but what they do affects us we want to see et in one place. the goal, to implement a sustainable plan for the long-term safety sustainable and for the infrastructure and facilities. both horizontal and vertical. fiscally constrained plan, means that we do our best each time this plan comes up to identify all of the known funding sources that can support our infrastructure. and then identify projects that we would like to do but for which we do not have funds. and those projects that are scoped, to say they have some kind of a budget, sense of what they are with you don't have budgets for them, those are deferred. and the projects we see on the horizon but do not have a firm budget or a sense of what the project might totally entail, those are the emerging projects. capital planning committee is the governing body for this document, shared by our city administrator. monthly, sometimes more

general plan. one of the city's eight general plan priority policies is the preservation of landmarks and historic buildings. planning staff recommends that the commission disapprove the project on the basis that the project would demolish a known historic resource that has been deemed individually eligible for listing on the california register of historical places, as it represents the work of a master architect and presents a >> how would the commission indicate their intent to approve the proposed project or provide support for alternate project. this would have to be continued. this concludes my presentation. >> thank you project sponsor? >> commissioners president hillis and members of the commission. >> this was purchase in 1963. this happens to be the fourth church to be built on that site and completed in 1928 and still standing. the church itself which is the subject of the discussion today with the home bases for the churches as well as the parish community and out rear activities that the church does. the church's primary outreach submission is helping the poor and disadvantaged throug

to move up the value chain which other cities have done, such as hangzhou, through growing and attracting talent, tackling pollution, nurturing the next generations. what about the major cities of beijing and shanghai? i they now overpopulated, overdeveloped?” think the shanghai and beijings of this world, they are globally connected, gathering the deepest talent pools. they are quite advanced on their economicjourney and we can see it as an development is happening to the real estate markets there. joining us earlier from london. tesla has never turned toa from london. tesla has never turned to a profit. that is expected to change when the company reports earnings today. historically, that has not stopped investors from pouring billions into the company. why is that mostly belief in elon musk. the electric car maker tesla has a lot of true believers. but even among them, jen stands out. after encountering the model s at a whiskey show, she and her husband fell in love with it. i wanted to get all of them. it was a long wait on the list to be nearly two years. anyone who knows me knows i would have waited ten years for this. very few companies h

it's a request to approve the lease between the san francisco general foundation and the city. it's for space at 2789 25th street which is the community health network building. let me bring this up. so 27 years ago what started out as a volunteer organization has blossomed into a foundation that's generated over $200 to zuckerberg san francisco general hospital for initiative in research, education and health services. during the rebuild part of the $200 million, 141 million was generated for the purposes of focusing in on the new acute care hospital which you guys are all familiar with. so the lease is basically since we did the ucsf lease for the research facility we are now going through all the leases on campus to make sure they are up to date and has all the provisions that the city has in them. this is a lease to create that base and then we are going to come back probably in about three months to do a longer term lease, probably a 10 or 20 year lease for the foundation. these are some of the terms that are contained on page 1 of the lease that go into more detail. so th

general winfield scott. he landed here and marched 260 miles to mexico city. there are other fronts too. john c. fremont led fighting in california. general stephen carney marched from kansas to santa fe to san diego and fought two major battles outside los angeles. a brigade of mormons that followed kearney's path nearly starved. and, they never fought. alexander donaldson led a famous troop of missouri volunteers who were mounted, from santa fe to chihuahua, mexico. the missourians marched more than 2,000 miles and won two battles. after they marched from here to here, they marched all the way to monterey and then to the coast, and then they took a ship back to new orleans. it's a real epic. donaldson was called the xenophon of the age. the treaty ending the war, the treaty of guadalupe a hidalgo in february 1848 cost the united states $18 million or $.37 per acre. it was the second best land bargain in u.s. history after , after the louisiana purchase which brought to the u.s. 828,000 square miles for $15 million. just as the mexican war treaty was being signed, california was learning of a go

general fund funded? >> your knowledge and memory of the city's budget is excellent. the public health department, the last dollar in to both hospitals and the general fund for them is a general fund dollar. they take a lot, a lot of revenues from many other sources. they're general fund supports on the margin. our work order is taken on the nongeneral fund portion of it, so as a practical matter, the general fund $4.4 million, to us, a whole bunch of departments are general fund departments. police, for example, fire, are the two largest, so we do most of our public safety work under that 4.4 million. and then, the work that we do for the health department is separate. it's a very large work order. the hospitals are huge institutions. we don't end up spending, you know, a fairly big chunk of the public health department's budget even in a year when we have a fully fleshed out program of audits when the money is returned to them at the end of the year. >> thank you. >> any other comments? >> i just have two comments. [inaudible] >> you broke this down by departments. [

it's rather a general observation that enhanced funding for kind of renewal needs and city facilities will take pressure off of future general obligation bonds and room within the program. so you will have that up, i believe, at your next meeting to discuss, and the committee could make a similar kind of point to the mayor and the board as part of this year's process. >> thank you. i'll next ask lisa zoe to come forward. she's the project manager for police facilities. >> thank you, charles, for the introduction. good morning, everyone. so for the 2014 police facilities program, we have a total of 15 total projects, of which six have already been completed? there's five projects that's currently under construction with one project in the final award phase. there's also two projects in the design phase, and one cancelled project? so onto the status of the various projects with recent accomplishments. m.e.p. package two, which is the mechanical, electrical and plumbing system upgrades and tenderloin police stations, it was advertised in january and four bids were received in february ?
