miller. >> this is similar to the previous item which is once again the mou. we thought the program would be launched by this time so the mou had a term date which we're beyond now so we want to extend it until june 2013. chairperson campos: great. thank you. another one-year extension. any public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. motion by commissioner avalos, seconded by commissioner olague. if we can take that without objection? item 8. madam clerk: item no. 8 is public comment. chairperson campos: any member of the public who would like to speak on any item within the jurisdiction of lafco not otherwise on the agenda. seeing none, public comment is done. item 9. madam clerk: item no. 9 is future agenda items. chairperson campos: colleagues, any future agenda items? any member of the public would like to speak? seeing none, public comment is closed. last item. madam clerk: last item isa, jowrnt. chairperson campos: meeting adjourned. thank you, everyone, and have a good weekend. thank you to staff and to the clerk for their good w

i believe our chief is committed to sunshining future mou's. i know the chief personally, as many of you do. i appreciate his commitment to the safety of the city. this ordinance is about -- is not about the chief. and it is not about terminating the mou. it is about the community. not all our residents have this personal relationship with sfpd. we also do not know what future chiefs would do, as we could not have predicted the change between 2002 and 2007, when sfpd did secretly changed the conditions with the fbi. this ordinance would assure our communities that we are protecting their civil rights, the right not to be investigated because of their skin color or religious practice, today or in the future, because we were willing to codify this in our ad man code. i want to thank again the community that is here. i was hoping you would stand, if you were here in support of the safe civil-rights san francisco ordinance. it is also the broader pan- asian community, the lgbt youth , and the latino communities that stand in solidarity today. i als

the second issue we were trying to address to the ordinance is the sun shining of the mou. we had previously a engage in a process where secret mou's could be engaged in and the mayor's office was in full agreement and wanted to ensure we sunshine the process. in this new version, we will have a hearing and approval at the police commission before it is signed by the police chief. the third issue is how we did reporting. the chief of police shall provide to the commission a public report with the appropriate public information on the police department's work in the prior calendar year, including any issues related to the compliance of this section. this ordinance will not engage in all of the specifics of originally in the mou and the community will monitor our future progress with the fbi and this will require more of that. but we are satisfied we are able to address three of the primary issues we are trying to address and we will be able to move forward on that. i submitted that and i do want to thank our eight co-sponsors we had for this ordinance, including our original

relationship with our department has been around for a long time but was never formalized until this mou approximately one year ago. one of the benefits of the mou it is we are able to track and the programs together in the same database, so we know month over month, year over year, exactly how we are doing. i also have with me the president of the board of friends of the sharon arts studio. i have our rec and park manager of the facility as well, and the administrative director. if you have questions for them. the new agreement basically continues but we were doing before with one fundamental change, and that is, in the past, the department was picking up the cost of publishing a brochure that goes out to about 2000 people. friends of the sharon arts studio has 500 paying members. they have a mailing list with 2000 people on it. those folks get the catalog mailed to them. in addition, the catalog is made available at as many rec and park facilities as we can so that people that are not members have access to their programs as well. the change in the new agreement is friends of the sharo

in terms of the mou's, these are our interagency agreement for the large projects. and the original projection was based some money coming in from mta. i think it is actually coming from the federal government for the central subway project, and that is going to be delayed until around august. so that will go on into next fiscal year. i am not very concerned about the fact that we have only received about 56% of what we originally estimated. in terms of the expenses, as you know, the majority of our expenses are related to personnel. we have been trying to fill positions. in fact, we have about 20 requisitions i got approved last friday that proposes a challenge for us. some of those are tested already and we are waiting for results. some of them there are not in the testing, so we will have to move through a process to hire the people, that we're getting recognition from the mayor's office and from dhor that -- from dhr that it is vital to provide the service. non-personnel-related expenses, yes or not particularly concerned about this one either, because a lot of

it has improved through the mou process as you have talked about, but that is a gradual change. what needs to happen is a discussion to make sure that everything we're paying for out of muni's funds, transit sponsored funds do indeed support the nexus. on tuesday, when we passed their budget, i have previously asked the director to look at and provide seven or eight things. i got a fair number of the things i had on my list. work order revisiting and the motorcycle officer work order was not. we engaged in a discussion on tuesday. the director candidly said, this is an issue of balancing. i think he and i fully agree this is not a situation where the money is going down or rabbit hole. these are our police officers out there doing valuable services and we want that funded. i want that funded. the only question is where and when it comes from. the director was under the impression that a grander, larger citywide decision had been made that muni would pay for this. that may be the right decision. what i encouraged him to remember is we as an independent agency have a duty to which

and the ntc will have the mou that captures the regional agreement. supervisor cohen: also in this meeting, there was opportunity for contractors to learn more information on how to bid, where to bid on projects, particularly related to caltrain. >> that is a feature of our website as well. supervisor cohen: thank you very much. supervisor campos: thank you, commissioner. thank you to staff. we have a question from supervisor mar. supervisor mar: thank you for the presentation. i wanted to ask about the van ness brt in the geary corridor bus rapid transit as well. looks like the transportation authority is suggesting the center running brt and working with the mta to bring that forward on may 15 and to the ta on may 22 as well. my district, richmond, but i think district 5 are a justly awaiting the geary brt as well. i am wondering if you can reiterate the planning and the public outreach and the stakeholder outreach meetings and the public open houses that are coming up very soon with in district 5 and district one? >> absolutely, supervisor mar. tha

i read the mou and i still can't figure out what you're doing versus what they're doing. >> well, what we're doing, there was at some -- right. what it does is basically at its bottom, at its most basic level, it says let's let each other know who we're investigating, right. it doesn't say you take the payday lenders and we'll take the nonbank -- >> so you're basically duplicating. you got a whole list of characters and they're taking one and you're taking one so why aren't we just leaving that with the ftc, period? >> why don't we leave it in the ftc, period? >> yes. >> because, again, none of us has a magic wand. if we did, we might do things differently but i like to think, first of all, that they are, you know, in fact, i know because i look at our complaint data base, that this is a very target-rich environment. there are more people who are doing bad things to consumers than we can go after. so it's good from my perspective of second cop on the beat but the other question is why don't we leave it to the federal trade commission. congress made a determination that, you know, and i

i know mou is a controversial waord between you and i, i do remember parents and guardians have questions about who contacted them. and i know there are clarifying questions around that, and i think it would be good to have something in writing so that the adult guardians knew what the process is and how notification happens. the last question i had, i think it is important is there are minimum requirements that we somehow advertised that in high schools. i am not quite sure what minimum requirements are, but i want to make sure our students are qualified and eligible. whenever i can do to help facilitate that. >> it is really pretty basic. you have to be a citizen, a high-school diploma, a valid california driver's license, and your criminal record has to be pretty much cleaned. ged or graduate from high school. when we came in, you have to be a resident of san francisco, but that is no longer the case. supervisor kim: something that came up when i was on the board of education, what are there are worse? i diddo know they do not always aligned with the school hours. because of the south

an updated mou should be completed with police that includes how to positively interact during after-school hours and possibly security so both parties feel secure as to what their job is. >> we have already heard how you are going to help us out. >> what is the timeline for implementing regulations, and thank you for your time. >> the one to give a timeline on how long before we get the training -- do you want to give a timeline before we give training? apraxias. -- >> yes, we want you to be recorded. >> our time line is we want to have the class we are proposing start with a brand new classes, so we are going to have of brand new basic recruit class start on june 25, so we want to roll this out going into the massive hiring stage. we want the training imbedded in the academy so we make sure we have time for that training, and i imagine we will use the basic class as our guinea pig class. we will work withi them and to scenarios. this is how i envisioned it. i want to work not only with a brand new recruits class but to get things rolling, to have the captain empower certain officers on th

need it to let -- take their own actions, and fat, tomorrow, to really understand the basis of our mou's. we will have this full discussion in april. a couple of major announcements, the first phase of the replacements of the existing dr access to the golden gate bridge is almost ready to open. we are looking at an opening for switchover date of april 27th, that is the end of next month. it is hard to believe after so many years of pushing this project forward. the first phase will entail a closure of the entire access to the bridge for a three day weekend. during that weekend, there would be the completion of street level the tort behind -- street level detour behind the palace of fine art. this is a tremendous engineering feat and it would be accomplished demolition in just one weekend. this is one of the innovations, the many innovations that the project is coming up with, rather than lengthening the suffering for two or three months, noise, dust, for the neighborhood, for the habitat, for the protected habitats in the presidio and so on, it was decided that we would do this in one we

now that that is -- erupting is mou -- mount aetna is dropping again. so far officials have not had to issue warnings for people believe houses. it is not affecting air travel in the area. >> now your 11 insta-weather- plus forecast with john collins. >> beautiful, sunny day. not a cloud in we had clouds this morning, but they have dissipated. we had a little cloudy is just off of ocean city. there have been showers in southeast virginia and eastern north carolina. even that is disappearing right now. let's look at the situation as we see it. in a little short on rain. we've not even at 1/10 of an inch so far. we are over four inches short on the year so far. average temperature of this month so far, 52.8. at edgewood, 57. parkton, westminster, a 54. here is the satellite image. we are high and dry. you can see that there is a big area of high-pressure over the eastern seaboard now. it is holding this storm to the west, away from us. this line, center point, we are east of that. temperatures will be close to normal for this time of year. more southerly

and authorize the mou and recommend the appropriation to the board and i am here with large brown and -- laurence brown and megan and we can answer any questions. >> so moved. >> any public comment? hearing none, commissioners, questions? >> i would like to say that once again, the staff seems to have risen to that challenge and some -- found creative ways to meet that challenge. accommodation to you and your staff for figuring out how to get this done. >> i agree. it is an organized plan to go forward given all the changes. thank you. >> i want to thank you for the hard work. i did not understand that projects were being defunded to make this happen. can you give us a little bit of a strategy on how you will refund these projects? >> and some questions along that line. if you could add to that any potential exposure we might have by defunding these projects. the strategy for refunding is always the most challenging. the southern waterfront project we defined it, the back lands was a hard decision to make because there is revenue potential at the other side of that project to the tune

authorize to finalize negotiations and enter into an mou with the port of san francisco to attain necessary access for implementation and authorize the general manager to negotiate and -- and execute a new moa. >> thank you. this is the item you hard referenced earlier. bryant gave his report as how the asset has failed as recently as six weeks ago. it also failed twice in 2008 and once in 2006. we have it on life-support and we need to move it forward. if it is approved today, we will be able to have the replacement complete prior to the commencement of the america's cup races, july 4, 2013. and hopefully avoid any failures in that time between. hopefully with your consideration we can move this forward. >> thank you. commissioners khomeni questions? any public comment? -- commissioners, at any questions? -- any questions? moved and seconded? all in favor? the item carries. item 12 is continued to our next meeting. item 13. >> approve street light policy and authorize the general manager -- by other city agencies and to issue licenses for full use 2 nahyan visible entities and authorize th

secretary, senator begich, while we're waiting for the mou to be finished, alaska is one of two places where we are succeeding in tribal interactions, i hesitate to use the word pilot, to get specific agreements within a tribal unit. in alaska, i think it's the southeast alaskan tribal association and we are progressing in getting some arrangements with them. it wou and that we could work out the reimbursement arrangements and i think that's what we're trying to do in alaska and we have another program going on in nevada. >> senate big 914 authorizes a waive for telehealth, telemedicine, i guess there's already 100 or so in this program. telehealth is a huge winner in a lot of ways, it actually works very successfully. we have asked that to be waived through this legislation to eliminate the co-pate. can either one of you give us a thought of supportive -- i know any time you take dollars away, but in my view, the mental health is a money maker. this is a way to solve and meld and create a solution. >> neither dr. petsel or i are familiar with that legislation. if i may, i'll provide y

for -- used training for police officers and talk -- tactics that address -- establishing an active mou that standardizes our relationship between high schools and districts stations. >> it is important to open communications between the schools, young people, and the police department and increase understanding of what people are trying to do it tends to help the escalade situations. there's a lot of sense in having an agreement on what the parameters are and having everyone be on the same page. that is something i would look at as a commissioner. >>supervisor kim: on your positn on tase shares and its use in sfpd. >> there is problems with tasers. we have to use other methods including crisis intervention which was a product of commissioner chan and other people bringing best practices. we have to bring everything we can to do escalade situations and keep everyone safe. i am not convinced tasers is the answer. supervisor kim: i had one more question. an issue that had come up with commissioner appointees last year. something that is an issue has been use of master keys to enter into s

could speak to the mout that will be drafted -- to the mout that will be drafted the trip -- to the mou that will be drafted between the city and the port. >> they are non-voter-approved debt, and one of them was an exclusion for non-general fund pledged. in this case, because the port is the user and the recipient of the project, we have this agreement, which allows for them to repay the debt service fully without any general funding, so this is just the process. in my book, we call it self- supporting debt. but that is more a general distinction. from a credit point of view, it is the general fund of the city that is the credit. supervisor chu: great. thank you. is there additional comments from the port that you would like to add? >> good morning. i am here to describe the project if he would like me to. i know you are very familiar with the projects, having heard the america's cup discussion, but i can go through that if you would like. supervisor chu: perhaps quickly we could go through the major points for members of the public. >> certainly. as a point of background, as you are a

i read the mou. but explain to us your interpretation of what part of ftc's jurisdiction is transferred to cfpb, how y'all are working together, and i also want to know that since because of that, the fact that you all are working together and some of your jurisdiction was transferred, then it seems to me that you wouldn't nid as many resources as you have requested. >> so that's a very fair question. and i think that's part of commissioner rush's concern as well about the creation of the cfpb. we have a memorandum of understanding, as you mentioned. we the that because we don't -- we want to make sure that we're efficient. as we know from the complaints we get and from the cases we brought. it's a target rich environment. and so we, so from my perspective, as long as we're not double teaming companies and we're letting each other know which investigations we're doing. that's probably a good thing, a good thing for consumers. we've also set up six working groups with with the cfbc, and we meet with t

we really work with the protective parent, and we do have mou's with many of the individuals that have presented today, foster care mental health, child crisis, police. we also have one with adult probation. they call us when someone we have been working with has been convicted or is getting out of prison or jail. we work with the d.a. we work with victim witness, our resource centers, our multi- disciplinary interview, which we all for dissipate in. we also have team decision- making meetings and family team meetings where we come together and bring everybody to the table. the parents, supportive families, supportive friends, and agencies, to see if we can make a planned so that the family can be an architect of what is going to happen to their families. we also have, with recurring cases, we make sure that on each file, we have a purple star, so as the case comes back in and a social worker picks up the case, they immediately can recognize that this is a family that has previous or current domestic violence, and in our referrals before social workers go out, it is in our alert so we
