specialist for the san francisco green business program here. and i am going to tell you a little about the program if you do not have any background about it but a little history and about the out reach efforts that we are doing for the small businesses here in san francisco. >> so, i apologize for the formatting here, but the san francisco green business program is actually part of a larger green business network in california. and the larger network is called the california green business and it is made up of 24 jurisdictions that have recognized the businesses across the state and the network uses the same model with the older networks for having been implemented for over 15 years and we feel that the bottom that we are using is strong and work able for small businesses in 2006, the green business ordinance was into place at the time by the mayor newsome and later in 11 making official the california green business network as the official businesses of california. >> we connect all of the businesses to city resources and we work with the sec

and all of these combined, equate to what we call the blue green way. so, the blue green way is a series of parks that all have their own unique identity and experience, but are connected along a 13-mile system of open space and linkages. and with that, would i just like to give a brief update on the various blue green way project and starting in the south and in august of last year, we opened up heran's head park the new 50,000 square foot intention of the park and the new entryway which has been enjoyed and received a lot of accolades from the community from both the dog walkers, picnickers, and residents, that are enjoying it every day. and at the same time that we opened up, the heran's head project, we also did a ribbon cutting for the cargo way bicycle lanes and these were the city's first cycle track and protected by the bicycle lanes in san francisco and they have their own signaling system, and lasering signaling systems that texts the bicyclists and was recently highlighted in an examiner article about one of the better open space and improvem

and the green referred to the parks, and the bay trail connecting them. and the concept besides the blue green way is to channel the economic change from industrial to mixed use areas, in order to insure the creation and preservation of recreation space in the water and on the land. and the process was not new to san francisco. and it had happened, a long the northern water front when the park was created. our boating and swimming clubs had been originally created in the middle of industrial spaces. and in the late 19th century, the railroad tracks on tressles crossed over the piers of the clubs at black point cove and later the train tracks were moved to the shore line or the shore line was moved to the tracks and any way, the tracks are still there, and a memory of the past. black point cove was the original name of the new park, which the clubs had inspired and helped to build. and i happened to be a member of the dophin club. >> when sea wag was formed, a similar situation existed along the southern water front. and the old train yard, were now changi

. >> the green business program has created the campaign to have a more formal out reach pilot and we created a greater awareness through the program throughout the area of the city in the mission area specifically and to recruit further businesses in to the program. the campaign consisted of door-to-door out reach to 100 businesses surveys, mailers, adds and billboards. and this was a great chance for us to educate businesses about the benefits again about going green and about connecting them about the information that we have and this campaign that we found to be successful. we had a handful of businesses registered into the program and we felt that we did raise awareness around a local neighborhood area. in the coming year, we do hope to move forward with another campaign to increase awareness of the program. >> the program was able to connect with the hotel council of san francisco and we are able in the partnership to put on a green business forum to put on hotels of san francisco and their partners and the forum was very well received by the council and so we are actually movin

to connect with the hotel council of san francisco and we are able in the partnership to put on a green business forum to put on hotels of san francisco and their partners and the forum was very well received by the council and so we are actually moving forward with a five-part workshop series to assist the hotels, to green themselves so this is a very industry specific out reach that we are trying to do here. and other items that the program is moving forward with, is a set of translated checklists for the office/retail and the restaurant sectors we will be having those created in spanish and chinese and those are currently in the process at the moment and so we are hoping to complete them shortly and as wells the second thing that we are working on further is the businesses work very hard to receive this recognition and to achieve, the high environmental standards of the program and so we created a video to help the businesses market their green recognition to the clients and customers, so they understand what to do with the green recognition once they have received it. >> and, to con

about green issues. -- talking about green issues. three or four years ago it was not possible. you were called to be crazy, insane, out of this world. >> a big problem for the greens is recycling works in politics as well. and the german chancellor angela merkel has taken a flag ship issue and made it hor own. ending -- her own. ending nuclear power, days after the fukushima disaster in japan, merkel announced germany would shut its nuclear plants. the green party has deep roots awes you can find -- as you can find in villages like this. locals decided solar panels will provide electricity, and using gas and natural waste from farms produces more heat than the villages need. most green voters are sticking with the party but admit it's almost a victim of its own success. >> translation: i think green policies have been widely accepted. what is difficult is that some of the main states are dated. like the opposition to nuclear power. they now have to find themes again that appeal to the wider population.

this means truly green electrons produced by truly green power sources that make their way to san francisco to power our city. this is what a green power program should look like. through a combination of truly green power, mostly produced right here in california, san francisco's cca would have made great progress towards our city's shared environmental goals. but that's not the deal with the shell oil that the puc commission just rejected. the program that they said no to included only 25% true renewable energy. this is a serious degradation of the environmental benefits. the san francisco public utilities commission took a look at the deal that the staff had negotiated with shell and the commissioners decided that using 75% renewable energy credits or recs did not provide the green benefits this board of supervisors had repeatedly insisted upon. recs, as you know, supervisor, are like certificates. they can be traded from one wall street speculator to another. they derive their value from commodity trading just like stocks. by the time those recs reach our community choice aggregation pr

a question came up, why we use inside the building and little marina green. and it's that the open space around the palace of fine arts is a designated -- it's a nonstructured recreation area. since we are a group use, we do not interfere with public access. we actually go across. so, that's why we have a protocol, but that's why we choose -- that's r why we're going to those recreation areas. >> got it. commissioner moore. >> i just wanted to express my full support for the project. i think it is a very wonderful continuation of the application for the expansion of the school on jackson street. i think it's very serendipitous that we find an appropriate interim user for a facility which needs to be occupied and needs to stay within the active public eye of san francisco given its somewhat peripheral location and accessibility. i believe that the low-key hardly noticeable reuse of the building is not really an issue. i think the school understands living in density and living with care, so, i am in full support. i believe that the question i had about accessi

i love the notion of a green deal, a new green deal. for this program, we poured so much of our hopes and our expectations in it. and i think the reason why we're having such a problem now is we're coming to grips with the fact that we can't do everything to the equal degree at the very beginning of the program. it seems to me the challenge is not only to strike the right balance, but to construct a program that the majority of us, all the stakeholders, all the elected officials, the puc can say of the program with confidence that at some time definite period, will -- will meet all of those goals equally. i don't know what that program looks like, but i think that we would do ourselves a favor if we acknowledge the problem that we've created for ourselves and the difficult situation that we are in now in terms of moving forward. i don't think anybody here, any of my colleagues to the extent i understand where we are, wants to abandon this program. as i said, the question, it's not just what the program is going to look like tomorrow or

also given that once the students are on little marina green, there is actually no fencing you would normally see on a playground at other schools in the city. and, you know, the drivers that are coming down marina boulevard have no indication there's going to be children at play during these hours, so, that is all i have to say. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >>> patricia vaughan, [speaker not understood]. we're totally in favor of this and i want everybody in the room that's in favor of this to please stand up. now we don't have to have 50 repetitions. thank you. >> thank you. thanks, everyone. >>> commissioners, good afternoon. i'm brewster eli, head of the boys.

you didn't join the military to be a green beret. you went in there and get a look at but mostly officers were trying to get out of the green beret once they got there because they couldn't advance. the guys who stayed in a too long with a you got to get back to the regular army you could advance. so the fact that this is the green berets and their infancy as well, and what they did in bolivia is what they have done in colombia, if you guys out of fort bragg, what they've done in iraq, what they've done in afghanistan, what they've done in the philippines. so in some ways we are getting to see green berets doing exactly what they do best, which is working by, with and through indigenous soldiers but in this case believe in soldiers but in some case iraqis, in some cases afghans. honestly, let me be blunt, to carry out american policy. to me, being someone who spent a lot of time covering in and working with them and writing about them, i was so fascinated by this aspect of the mission, that this was really, there are statues around f
