hire summer counselors or staff for someone up to the age of 24. and finally which of the city departments can serve as work sites such as youth works. last year we found that there were 53 city departments that either funded, operated or served as a work site for our summer programming. this year what we're trying to do, in an effort to get information out to young people about the available opportunities is we're creating a page on the dcf website. this year it will be an opportunity for young people to find out about the training and employment programs, who is eligible for the programs, what the stop and start dates are and what the application process is and to help move forward, we created a searchable page to help those other city programs funded. before i move onto the summer jobs plus, do you have any questions about the dcyf strategies? >> supervisor norman yee. >> thank you. i'm not too sure. you mentioned the number of youth all these programs are serving -- >> i don't have the exact numbers for this year. last year we were table to serve well over 2,000 young peopl

most cities have one or two nonprofit developers. even new york city has a few nonprofit developers. obviously their scale is greater and they rely much heavier for-profit developers. and we use for-profit developers in the city too, but they have san francisco experience. and it's important whether through the planning process or the commission process or the board process or through the building department requires a knowledge of what it takes to get through that process. as opposed to coming and sort of saying, well, i did this in st. louis, i can do it anywhere; right. so we really wanted to sort of encourage those folks who have been working in the field, providing affordable housing to take on this responsibility. one reporter early in the process asked me, these developers will get paid millions of dollars, won't they. i said they will get a developer fee from the mayor's office schedule. it's barely enough to compensate them for two things. one the time they take on the development and the risk. these developers in san francis

refers to nonwillful violations of the sunshine ordinance by elected officials, department heads, or city officers and employees. so, it doesn't appear to contemplate the possibility of a nonwillful violation by a commission as an entirety. >> or by the library, for example. >> or by an entity, right. >> so, it sound like it's a little unclear as to whether there would be anybody else that a complainant could name in a situation like this. >> right, right. i think that's right. i mean, i don't know whether it's possible, for instance, to name a librarian. if the librarian is named in his capacity as the sort of representative of the library, it may be the fact that it's a nonwillful violation means that it's possible that's what's happened. it seems ambiguous from the complaint itself. it seems like the complaint specifically names the librarian in his capacity as an individual. >> commissioner, you had a motion? >> i would propose -- i would make a motion that the commission finds that mr. herrera has sustained his burden of proof to showing that there was no violation of the sunshine or

if your town or city wants a local ordinance to raise the minimum wage within your city limits or you want to require companies to offer paid days or sick days the state government has now banned any town in the state from doing that. see there is blue states, red states and oklahoma. take the marriage issue, as well. there are 17 states that recognize marriage rights for same-sex marriage couples, as well. some of those were decided in the courts. but blue states like illinois and hawaii and rhode island and washington state increasingly they're just passing the marriage laws between the regular process, that is the blue states, red states are not only passing marriage equality laws through the legislative process, red states are fighting to hold onto the existing marriage bans even though the courts are striking those bans down as unconstitutional. so blue states are passing marriage equality laws, red states are fighting to hold onto their bans against marriage equality. that is normal blue states and normal red states. but in oklahoma, just being a normal red state is not enough.

park, good luck trying to find any federal official who will say happened at that fort hood or oklahoma city or anywhere on our soil are terrorism. know. i tried. this is white house counterterrorism advisor lisa on the news hour last night. what we have seen is extremism in any number of forms and it is not kwaoepbd to any one -- to any one community. to any one nfined individual of a particular faith. we need to respond to it and regardless of faith, regardless of where it is present. gwen: when we hear a white house andcial talk about violence extreme nfl but not terrorism is it just labeling? partly labeling but if something is classified as a terrorism they can qualify for benefits but it is true the federal government tends to stick to a pretty strict definition which is terrorism is an act of violence to intend to coerce the government to further social cause. for example, it may surprise some people that the born bombing is bush the boston marathon bombing is not no orism because there are terrorism charges filed even though president obama did call it an act of terror. as for the sh

one day but you're describing people that live closer it's valuable to have someone that knows the city or is familiar with the city. the police department from what i understand has given the thumbs-up as well as the commission and the d hr is working on it we've met with them several times to talk about the skeptic circumcision on the national model there have been shawn's for the criteria to be looked like the previous occupations and services between the community and that there will be value given to that as opposed to someone taking it out of the country. it's dizzy but there are ways in which - >> it's a clear selective process taking the test in san francisco i think that helps to assure that more folks who are local can apply to the department rather than bangor main. >> i think the - in a lot of ways there's incentive in that in terms of the margaret and recruitment where it was only one day you miss the window but the stuns testing someone what go on their convenience to take the test but i know the candidate to go to a website and apply and take the test to became a firefighter

if you remember, each city department or most of the city departments have a designated a-d-a coordinator who interacts with our office directly and also our liaison when we have complaints or issues or training questions that come up with very specific departments. now, really quickly i just wanted to mention the four sessions that we have slated. the first one took place already on march 20th and it was an introduction to overall jenna. d.a. requirements, a little bit about the history, and gave a good sort of background for folks who may have been new to the role of the a-d-a coordinator. ~ general a-d-a the next session is coming up april 25th and it's all about information access and universal access -- it's about how we communicate. anything from access or information for deaf and hard of hearing individuals, blind individuals, but also individuals with cognitive and intellectual disabilities as well as a little preview in assistive technology in the electronic and -- electronic accessible information technology, public events and meetings. section 3 would focus on our [speaker not

under state statute once an estimate has been established the city and county or in this case the city and county of san francisco needs to give the exact same amount it gave in the previous year for the next year. they cannot reduce the lafco itself is the only body to reduce the amount. we have accepted the money and then realizing the budget issue that we give the money back. i know that you serve on the board of supervisors and you are well aware of budget for the city and county and it's up to you that we continue that practice for this final year. one of the things i was talking with miss miller about, maybe we keep some of the money this year and not return all of it. we tend to spend $100,000 to $120,000 overall paying for the clerk's office and paying for other things that are done. like some of miss miller's time and this coming year, now that i am allowed to work on things outside of cca, i pick up costs with putting agendas together and adding up to $100,000 to $125,000 a year for staff and clerk to do this work. so we could keep our reserve where it's at for i year. the ch

established by the library commission, city charter section 4.102 on boards and commissions stipulates, and there's two specific areas. one, that the commission or the unit of government of executive branch of the city and county shall formulate, evaluate and approve goals, objectives of plans and programs and set policies consistent with the overall goals of the city ask county as established by the mayor and the board of supervisors to the adoption of city legislation and after public hearing, that's item number 3, approve applicable departmental budgets or any budget modification or fund transfers requiring the approval of the board of supervisors. i brought the matter regarding the use of a-va equipment to the attention of the commission and deliberate on the matter and ultimately arrive at a decision. ~ their decision of using the equipment by members of the public during public comment is their policy decision and i have adhered to that policy. therefore, i did not violate the sunshine ordinance. i also want to reiterate that the library commission did not violate administrative code 67.15 a or b because the decision not to expend signific

things like capital allocations for city infrastructure or affordable housing or other one time uses that don't occur where you can make an easier choice to pull back funding at a bad time and certainly in the city's discussion with our labor discussion in terms of what term of contract should the city be pursuing. the longer term of a contract, the greater risk you have for something going as you would hope and the level of wage increases we offer. i think it's some mix of those things. taking a long view focusing on one time to the extent that it's feasible building reverse that -- reserves that they will be available when you need them. >> supervisor wiener? >> thank you. to mr. rosenfeld about the economic expansion. one of the things about san francisco right now and over the last number of years is at least it feels like we came out of the recession or certainly into full throttle growth maybe first in the country certainly far head in the country and state as a whole and our unemployment rate as we know is very low. i'm just wondering how that plays into the art or the science
