we've made a tremendous which investment and this contract allows us to do that this trapezii was a mr. kelly bid contract it's in place since 2002 it's not a huge field our choices are somewhat limited it's tailored software so the more we can work with both our industry partners that are using it like atlanta and others as well as having trapezii you know more on site and more frequently and more responsive to our needs we're only going to see improvements but it really has taken us you know when i got here in 2006, we were really beginning the roll out of this we've started to use the scheduling have not used the dispatch yet and other systems the amount of clean up and information that's 0 now available to staff through the software is i think tremendous and part of why we can even respond to things like we have a huge push on operator hiring because we see everyday you know an esteem detail every trip that's missing and this is the software we use to do that so - >> thank you. >> it's not a perfect thing it's helpful. >> it's helpful. >> let's say it's a huge jump under the amount of $8.

opportunity to thank mayor ed lee and the san francisco public utilities commission commissioners and mr. kelly and the hard working staff i'm sure you're aware of i've been working at southeast for many years 0 now so it is hard to put this mouemorandum of understanding together and from our commissioners william kennedy this is harkened and the mou was presented to the full commission on the 12 december of last year and happy to tell you there was in our pool we thank the puc for all the work they've been doing especially to help us to make sure that everything in bayview pushes hard what you do will continue to please continue to help us we ready need the help so thank you very, very much commissioners. >> thank you so much eric mcdonald. >> good afternoon commissioners be eric mcdonald i'm wearing 3 hats first a native san franciscan a resident of bayview hunters point i appreciate the pro-active stand the puc has engaged the community supporting the nonprofits that support families everyday i'm reminded because the garden your commitment to our community, and, secondly i'm the ceo we're th

. >> okay mr. kelly thank you i think by the comments we're scratching the surface of that i think the challenge will be to not necessarily focus on the challenges but actually let this go out and explorer and kwok what san francisco might build in the future so good luck and look forward to hearing back from you soon. >> commissioners that places you on item 13 sea level rise presentation. >> does the commission want a test. >> good afternoon and welcome to the for january 15, 2015 commissioners we left off under your regular calendar for the san francisco capital sea level rise presentation. >> good afternoon commissioner fong and commissioners chris i'm here are the environmental planning and colleagues going to give a a recent adapted guidance document for the sea level will adaptation into the plan for the city. >> so essentially our presentation is going to give a little bit of background and the purpose of the document the members of the committee that created this document then tanya is going to

. >> i think i mentioned this when we complete mr. kelly i'm shocked we have a high vacancy rate if we have a policy to bring those units into the market it will make a significant dent in the market the short-term rental might be x baiting it but it's striking 9.3 percent of vacancy rate. >> commissioner johnson. >> thank you very much just for to commissioner richards i agree with you and it's funny i actually. >> is a percentage of the vacancy rate before anything called airbnb or we're aware of any of those that has to do with second homes it was on the ballot there's that issue that is related to short-term rentals so thank you director ram i agree definitely semiannual the reason i brought it up this is a housing policy that can get lost when we talk about and there's a scheduled adaptation meeting assuming it is scheduled commissioner antonini commissioner hillis commissioner johnson commissioner moore commissioner richards and commissioner fong so moved, commissioners, that motion passes unanimously 6 to zero and places you on item

follow-up with director ram and others i think there's a start next week with the citywide work plan mr. kelly as alluded to and another opportunity i believe is through the informational be hearings we have commissioner johnson you pointed out today's hearing i think this is the scheduling consecutive scheduling to talk about the issues that have been raised. >> very good commissioners commissioners, if there's nothing further we'll move on to o to items 10 consideration of amendments and adaptation commissioner moore a recommending we continue this matter i believe based on noticing but i wanted to point out this matter was advertised on the dis18th agenda when was issued on december 11th so it's been close to a month that members of the public have received the notice and it was on the agenda and since this agenda was issued last friday, i basically received one inquire regarding the matter. >> i think we should at least have a discussion and decide whether or not to continue the item i want to be clear, sir on the december 18th calendar was the attachment a red lined actual rules and rules

interests at heat and think that julie ann first of all, i want to compliment you for supporting mr. kelly and kate in this project it's reached out to all of the district 10 and to the community and helped people to understand a little bit better what the puc is all about thank you for your time hope you have a good day and thank you very much now - what? you have to leave two okay. the last person >> thank you so much i'm sheryl davis i run a program out the western edition so i wanted to a couple of things make you ware that some are learning loss contributes to more than 50 percent of the achievement gap those programs are important in a lot of ways first for the comboesh i know we did this with the middle school and high school youth and i know one young man that was so involved that some of the kids said if you give one more strategic on hetch hetchy or the water we're going to strangle you he was becoming this walking facts around the water and the portions of turning the water off and water usage i think that it has not premeditated the neighborhood the ideas to network with other

or mr. kelly do you have comments before i ask >> oh, no. >> (calling names) >> (inaudible). >> i'm sorry who our counterpart? >> (inaudible). >> good afternoon, commissioners i'm with the san francisco bay area i also serve on the puc citizens advisory committee as vice chair i'm here in the afternoon in support of power sf the cac passed a resolution to recommend it be approved and move forward the internet support by the lab co-also supports it by creating jobs and boy prioritizing jobs in the city of san francisco and those reasons i urge the commission to support sf so san francisco, california chief one hundred percent of this goal. >> thank you. >> thank you, commissioner i'm tara ma i imagine i wanted my counterpart to go first, she represents san francisco and i represent oakland so i'm not speaking in terms of the clean sf power although i want to show my support but decide emerald supports another opportunities clean sf power has the chance actually be a pioneer for the bay area several

i want to thank mr. kelly and director ram he's been waiting and excited about the conversation i'm disappointed about the people in the audience we'll remember the day we have a transit plan and charge la on the same day and had 5 increments and 5 folks i encourage you to take this to another public forum make maybe a presentation at the city college or maybe some sort of public location where we can make this kind of presentation and they're there or in another forum for the purposing public there's a lot of interest we've been hearing all year there was not as much confidence in the planning department it's hard we're regularity in one position but i want the department and commissioners to put the vision together i'm interested as commissioner fong said how those challenges relate to the 5 will that initiated or we wanted to do an action plan for the 4 challenges or an upcoming work plan by the 4 challenges i think we want to dig in dope what goals do we have every year on the four challenges i welcome the

. >> i'm sorry can you address what the mr. kelly said quickly because my concern is what you're asking for is the comments give to us were not like here's a general big question but here's an issue that's written in the report they change what's written in the report there were one or two big picture issues it is we changed what was written in the report because of the comments written in the roster i'll work with staff to best do that. >> thank you. >> hi there commissioners i'm tiffany representing the sierra club as well as a citizen and san francisco i wanted to add that i think it's really important that we monitor and look at it neighboring counties win the bay area like merry run county and napa county that are already implemented cca programs such as american royal run county that is in their third year and has invest 50 percent of their revenue to local generations projects and now another counties like alameda are launching the feasibility study into the community choice program that is important as we mar the skews that s

timeline where we can think creatively about how we are building this as quickly as possible and as mr. kelly said of course we don't want to move more quickly than we should, but i think that the anxiousness from the environmental organizations and communities, i share that and want us to move forward. timelines by the february meeting makes a lot of sense for me. >>supervisor john avalos: thank you, commissioner campos? >>supervisor david campos: thank you, mr. chairman, just a quick suggestion and one thought. i agree with what commissioner vietor was saying and as the general manager was indicating a time line will be presented to the public utilities commission at their next meeting. i think it would be helpful for me to for lafco to also hear from lafco staff as to what they think, you know, in their minds what the timeline would be. i think it would be good to see if maybe there is an agreement, but maybe to the extent that one staff might think it can be done sooner than that's an opportunity

mr. kelly: thank you. i rise in support of h.r. 30. i come to the floor oftentimes and i'm amazed how many times we let politics interfere with policy. i want to tell you who you're really hurting. you're not hurting the republican party by your remarks. what you're doing is hurting the american people by your remarks. this is america's congress. it's not a republican congress. it's not a democrat congress. it's america's congress. who have you hurt the most with this policy? women. lower income people and lower middle income people have suffered greatly. how do i know that? because i'm actually in the job market. i've actually hired people. i know the dignity of labor and know the harm that's being done by this care act that is totally unaffordable and uncaring. it is unbelievable that we've come to the floor of this house and somehow make the other political party look bad and turn our backs on the people who sent us. it is not working, gentlemen. we don't have to dismantle it, it's falling apart on its own and the fact that it's so

following up on what my colleague was talking about and what mr. kelly was talking about. we're talking about the national debt and the growth of national debt area i always get concerned. i was a businessman because i am a big lever that you have to look at the big picture before you can move forward, the date policy decisions moving forward and i'm always somewhat concerned that we zero in on the national debt without also zeroing in on the unfunded liabilities that this country actually has. when you start to add those unfunded liabilities to the national debt i believe that you make different policy decisions than zeroing in on the national debt and i would like to hear what your thoughts are an all-star revue as well. why don't we look at the total picture, and do you think that we should? >> i think that a number of economists and studies and the cbo, they all look at the unfunded liabilities and the danger when you do it is that the numbers turn out to be so big that people throw up their hands and say it is hopeless. it is not hopeless. when is that we slow the gro

>> mr. kelly. >> yes. >> the governor just tweeted us again, governor christie, whole state, ban has been lifted. >> right now. >> as of right now. >> as of of right now, governor listen to us talking knows we're on the air. go a ahead you are good to go and drive but just use some caution. i showed thaw live traffic camera what the new jersey turnpike looks like. it is not plowed yet, north of i195. so use some caution if you are stretching out of the front door. the septa bus routes that will change as well for the the better a as we go through the day. new jersey transit, however still service suspended, statewide on the trains, buses and light rails. when we will get back on track with njt. >> a lot of new jersey people are watching this morning, sarah goes, by the way, i grew up in atlantic county. anything north of us is north jersey. it is a different state. right, sarah. how about this from andre who watches every day. hi andre. governor christie trying to get cool points by calling into g

. >> mr. kelly is recognized for two minutes. >> make no mistake about what this debate is about. h.r. 7 is about taking no taxpayer money for abortions. but the real debate on the floor is about life. we are talking about life in the people's house. on the floor of the people's house. we are talking about a gift from god. we are talking about something that was so well put into our declaration of independence. life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. the first being life. i understand there is a serious debate and people say, we are not ready for this child. but expectant mothers and unborn children have to be protected. in a nation that recoils at the news around the world, this is horrible what is happening. this is horrible. what is happening in the mideast. and we want to rush to help evil because there is a loss of life. in our own country, we have turned a blind eye to the loss of 56 million unborn children. these are lies that were lost that do not have to be lost. i know there is a law that says they have the right to make that decision. it may be legal, but i do not

mr. kelly: i thank the gentleman. mo dam chair, make no mistake what -- madam chair, make no mistake what this debate is about. the real debate on the floor today is about life. we're talking about life on the -- in the people's house, on the floor of the people's house. we're talking about a gift from god. we're talking about something that was so well put into our declaration of independence talking about the life liberty and pursuit of happiness, the first rule being life. i understand there's a seris debate about that and there are times that people say, listen, we're not really ready right now for this child. but mothers and unborn children have to be protected. in a nation that recoils as the news around the world -- at the news around the world at the loss of life and says this is horrible what's happening in syria this is horrible what's happening in the middle east this is horrible what's happening, we want to go there and rush to help people because there is a loss of life. and then in our own country we hav

this is, as mr. kellyssionately said, something that's commonsense, that we ought to work on together and that we ought to provide the relief for those who provide more than 70% of the volunteer aid across this country, especially when it comes to fighting fires and our national volunteer fire council is supportive of this, as well as the fire chiefs association. i'm looking forward to working with my colleagues across the aisle to ensure this and again with that, commend and congratulate mr. barletta and thank him for his fine work in this area and look forward to supporting him on future endeavors. with that i yield back the balance of my time. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman yields back the balance of his time. the gentleman from wisconsin is recognized. mr. ryan: mr. speaker, i'll yield myself just a few moments to say to the gentleman from connecticut, i appreciate him for his comments, fost, for the bipartisan nature of this. for mr. courtney, first they had to get through some tough luck. and

. >> mr. kellyyou say unnerving, obviously many people would share that perspective in terms of that fall in prices. what are your expectations if you can give me a sense? i mean we have seen this kind of scenario before for texas, it's many years ago. do you expect if oil stays around this level that there will start to be a fall-off in some of those roots that you just mentioned? >> if oil stays where it is, there has to be -- things have to change. so we're already seeing drilling rigs cut back. we're seeing job you know jobs being cut. so far, that's not being manifested in our travel demand. i think on a net basis, though you've got consumers that have a lot of cash in their pockets and they will likely be traveling more than they would have. so how all of that nets out is anybody's guess. my best guess that that nets out system wide for us in a big positive. of course, it's much much lower, you know input cost for us. >> right. >> other thing i point out to y'all, because we're a low-cost prod

mr. kelly: i thank the gentleman. mo dam chair, make no mistake what -- madam chair, make no mistake what this debate is about. the real debate on the floor today is about life. we're talking about life on the -- in the people's house, on the floor of the people's house. we're talking about a gift from god. we're talking about something that was so well put into our declaration of independence talking about the life liberty and pursuit of happiness, the first rule being life. i understand there's a seris debate about that and there are times that people say, listen, we're not really ready right now for this child. but mothers and unborn children have to be protected. in a nation that recoils as the news around the world -- at the news around the world at the loss of life and says this is horrible what's happening in syria this is horrible what's happening in the middle east this is horrible what's happening, we want to go there and rush to help people because there is a loss of life. and then in our own country we hav

mrs. kelly: today all signs point to our economy being the strongest it's been in nearly a decade. businesses are flourishing. we gained nearly three million new jobs. there are still 8. million americans living in the shadow of the economic crisis who are struggling with chronic unemployment. they deserve a congress that is focused and united in putting them back to work. let's work to reduce the tax burden on the middle class. putting more money in their pockets and making it easier for them to afford their homes and sending their kids to school so that the american dream is within everyone's reach. americans want a congress that can overcome partisan gridlock to put the people first. i urge my colleagues to put politics aside to find a middle ground to help our middle class and put more americans on the path to opportunity and prosperity. oy yield back. the speaker pro tempore: the gentlelady's time has expired. for what purpose does the gentleman from washington seek recognition? without objection the gentleman from washington is recognized for one mut mr. new house: thank you,
