mr. kelly, we will come back to item f. >> ok, and congratulations on your apparent electoral victory. [applause] the one issue is that this is a transfer of funds from uniforms and other things to create a 0.375 fte t-10 paraprofessional, so the question we really have is, does this take a five-hour paraprofessional and raise his or her time to eight hours? a 4-hour to a 7, or is this creating a new position that is only three hours? it is significant, because if it were the latter, then there is a problem because no one is supposed to be hired for less than four hours, and it is not clear what is being done there. as you know, we are particularly sensitive to what happens to the nt-10 aides. we believe the additional hour that has been taken from them needs to be restored to them. we see some t-10's getting some hours during afterhours, and we appreciate that, but this raises the question about what is going on with this. they view. president kim: is there a staff member who can direct this d

mr. kelly?commissioners, i am here on behalf of the fellow merchants association where for the past couple of years we have tried to find a way to support this study and given the way that our feedback has been handled over the years, it has been very hard. there are three reasons this is true. with all due respect, there is a war going on right now that has been for a number of years. businesses moving over the border continue to do so because they try to escape san francisco taxes. this program, dunn sensitively within the context of other measures could be a way of leveling the playing field. or it could make things worse. we have been trying to give that feedback. no response and nothing in the study. basically we need to have that to make a decision. second, the other two proposals are on 18th street. not only through the middle of my neighborhood, but also the commercial district. i should not have to explain to you how stupid that choice of a border is it that moves forward, and after two

mr. kelly, do you have? yep. >> thank you very much. i'm dennis skully from the united educators of san francisco. and i've taken a number of items that i would like to call your attention to. and i grouped them. and the first grouping from k-24 through 44 i believe i added, 59 to it, items that include they come from grants that have to do a safety or equity for the most part. and i raise this to ask because of the ongoing concern that the union has over the cut of the hours for the security age, the t-10s. if there's anything in these grants that could be allocated to supply the missing hour that has been taken away from those 10 -- t 10s. you'll see that you're ex-fending $2 million in these grants. we believe it takes 230 dollars to restory all of the t-120's and we're hopeful that program some of them can be picked up through some of the -- the next items that i had were -- which numbers? >> 249. 49, there is -- it talks about the student support services department to assist in the expansion and coordination of resources that are
