and, mr. rose, just in thinking about this, putting a 5% floor since the contract is based upon a cpi, assuming a 5% deflationary annual number, is that correct? this would be protective of deflation of 5% or more every year? >> that is [speaker not understood] for changes in rider ship. formula includes rider ship. >> thanks, okay. >> colleagues, any questions of the budget legislative analyst? thank you very much. appreciate your report. and i know bart actually would like to come up and speak again. so, thank you again for being here. >> thank you. i just want to reiterate that we fully support the comments from mr. rifkin and mr. lee. and i appreciate mr. rose's summarization there. so, we do agree to the amendments that have been proposed. and thank you also for the clarification. the feeder agreement, as it is set up, is not only tied to increases or decreases in inflation, but also rider ship. so, it's not just adjusting by inflation, but also by the number of riders connecting from muni to

mr. rose? >> mr.hairman and members of the committee, on page 4 of our report, we report that the three-year budget for 12-13 through 13-14 of 40.7 million dollars under the proposed modified agreement, that's shown in table 2 on page 5 of our report. * as noted in table 2, the 136 preschool for all providers would be paid 9.4% of that 40.7 million or approximately $40,5 01,000. the children's council which simply provides the fiscal intermediary services would be allocated 6/10 percent of that amount or 229,000. so, nearly all of the money goes to the 136 providers. we recommend approval of this legislation as stated on page 6 of our report. >> thank you very much, mr. rose. and again, just to summarize, this is to provide some retroactive payments, but also for future enrollment increases that are projected, correct? >> that is correct. >> okay. and i think we all agree that is a good thing when we have more enrollment in this situation. colleagues, any other questions? okay, thank you very much. at

mr. rose crans? >>> welcome. >>> thank you mr. president and commission rs thank you for the opportunity to speak here today. mike is going to run out of time and i just want to emphasize that we told bawsca twice last summer orally that we would work with them to make sure that they would have this -- in the future of their water system we don't think this is the way to do it and takingsing the power away from the volters of san francisco and we believable the stakes holders in san francisco have a stake in the future of yosemite and so, that is we are urging you not to take not to adopt this resolution but to put it off and negotiate it a better resolution and one more issue here, the noter whereas, extraordinarily deceptive it's not the right anybody outside the bay area looks at the water system. not the way professors at uc davis or the staff at department of water resources or department of interior looks at it they don't think that hetch hetchy is the source of 75% of the water the -- river is the source of 75% and the ques

mr. rose's office that the subsidy from sfmta to bart is $5.6 million. so, there is a portion of the original fast pass price that also goes into the subsidy. and that $5.6 million is approximately the level of revenue loss that bart incurs by offering the discounted reimbursement rate to sfmta. so, we agree it is a regional contribution that both agencies are making to this program, and we support moving forward. >> thank you, i appreciate that. >> thank you. >> just to be clear, you're saying that based upon the fast pass agreement, the kind of revenue loss and gain for you, you kind of wash out; is that correct? >> we -- by offering the discounted reimbursement rate at did $1.19compared to base rate of $1.75, the annual revenue loss is on the order of about $5 million for us. * >> okay. and -- >> and that is the deepest discount in the bart system. >> okay, okay. >> thank you. >> supervisor avalos? >> just a quick question. just a quick question. mr. rose touched upon it, that the feeder agreement, he described i think he said voluntary. and historica

we recommend that you approve the resolution. >> thank you, mr. rose. why don't we go to public comment on these two items. are there members of the public who wish to speak on item number 5 or item number 6? seeing none, public comment is closed. >> motion to approve both [speaker not understood]. >> we have a motion for item 5 and item 6 with recommendation and we'll do that without objection. thank you very much. >> item 7. >> item 7, resolution finding the proposed rehabilitation of the 20th street hiss pork buildings on or near 20th street, east of illinois street, fiscally feasible pursuant to administrative code chapter 29 and endorsing the term sheet between orton development, inc. and the san francisco port commission. >> thank you. we have [speaker not understood] on this item. wait one second so he can switch over the microphones. >> good morning, kathleen [speaker not understood], planning and development group. and i'm here today to talk to you about what we believe is an incredibly exciting project and opportunity to bring back to life som

>> let me ask mr. rose, and miss newman, if you could understand what i am saying? i'm supportive of the budget analyst's recommendations, but i want to make sure that the family violence and support services are adequate, but to reduce the civil-criminal attorney and district attorney investigator positions from 4 for the tomorrow and investigator from 3 to 2. is there a way you could frame your recommendations, adjusting to those attorney and district attorney investigator positions? >> supervisor mar, as i understand the recommendation is for the approval of three attorney positions. which would be in the current fiscal year to 85550 district attorney investigator position, which is .66 in the current year 3 investigator positions, .99 fte in the current year. and one 8131 investigator assistant, .33 in the current year. and i want to clarify, you want these as limited terms for two years? >> yes. >> >> in the original appropriation. >> great. >> supervisor avalos? >> just so i'm clear, i'm work on page 21 of the budget analyst's report, 8177s are gooing from 4 t

. >> thank you very much, mr. rose. and just to further elaborate on the recommendations, the three that are recommended by the budget analyst, looks like the department is in agreement with that and actually has provided language to that effect. and i do want to read those items or that language into the record. what it looks like is an amendment on page 4 beginning on line 16 would read, further resolve that any ground lease negotiated between port and [speaker not understood] 20th street buildings require comply with the interior standard, [speaker not understood] rehabilitation of the 20th street historic buildings. and be it further resolved that at the time the board of supervisors considers whether to approve a ground lease for the project pursuant to charter section 9.1 18c, port report back to the board of supervisors on the project's one, revised cost estimates, project financing and pro forma financial analysis, and two, port's procedures to control and verify project costs and be it further resolved that if

there are some -- i want to thank mr. rose his office for their work in a very comprehensive report. we have a lot of iteration back and forth both [speaker not understood] and bart providing and answering questions. he has made some recommendations which we are ready to accept all of. all of them -- both of them on item 8 as well as the one on item 9. i would just want to say that with item 9 the idea bringing the cap down to 10.5 million is fine with us and it's fine with bart for the relatively short term of the agreement. i know the different term of the agreement is an issue of concern. it was our goal to have both of these be longer term agreements because it takes a lot of time and energy to renegotiate these. we also both want budget certainty moving forward which we haven't had. it was actually the sfmta's request that we have shorter term for the fast pass agreement while we wait for the bart board of directors to put in place a fair policy similar to the one we have at the sfmta which kind of sets -- which guides fu

and, mr. rose, with regards to the second recommendation to amend the resolution to require that any expenditures in the third amendment that exceed 10% go back to the health commission for approval, is this current policy with the health commission? >> that is consistent with their current policy, that is correct, madam chair, supervisor avalos. >> thank you very much. to the department, those two recommendations, wanted to hear from you. one sounds like it is a policy that is already dictated by the health commission, your department. second one we've actually seen a previous item like this at the department of health that came before on contingency for prospective expenses versus things that we've already done. we took that recommendation previously. any comments on these two recommendations? >> we concur with the first recommendation. on the second one we bring every contract to the health commission prior to coming to the board. so, we actually met that requirement of the second recommendation

the president has me clear that he is prepared [shouting down mr. rose] >> he is prepared to go with the position he took in december, in conversations with speaker boehner, but he and speaker boehner had serious discussions about substantial broadening of the tax base. >> rose: in is the grand bargain. >> the grand bargain, would address entitlements and the broadening of the tax base, the president is still there and willing to discuss all of that. the president, yes, the president made promises, the president focused on certain suesnd in the course his campaign, and the president is trying to carry through on those commitments. >> rose: what -- >> it seems to be irresponsible, charlie, for an official, for an official in a democracy who is elected, stressing certain issues and stressing certain commitments to not try to carry through on those condominiums, i think would be irresponsible. so, yes, elections do have consequences, but elections certainly don't mean that winners of ectio don't get to -- don't have to compromise, of course winners of elect

. >> duke is mr. rose. >> you know too much, mr.od choice for you? >> it's one of the great urban cities, and i have this notion of an urban win. you know, in cities like new york, philadelphia, and boston, there aren't any beautiful new hotels because the price of hotels doesn't justify the cost of them these days some of how can you have wonderful new hotels with big rooms and great bathrooms and new meeting space and restaurants? well, add a casino room down the hall separate but not dominating and all of a sudden the casino revenue allows do you build a new hotel and that's an urban win. it's an integrated win. the hotel experience itself is not directly dominated. you can use any part of the hotel without dealing with slot machines or tables but if you have a yen do that as a diversion for some part of the day, you can go down the hall through a separate door and into a gaming area. i call that an urban idea of the wynn hotel and i'm fascinated with it because two cities in america are offering the possibilities of such wonderf
