we provided the best health care for our ryan white clients. i ask on behalf of our mostville initially please take this into consideration >> i'm the medical director at the mission neighborhood health center. a year ago i spoke before this group. with our help we've been able to get more patients on medication and drastically reimbursing their spreading hiv to others. on monday, i saw my patient laura who was using heroin and over the last year with the help of her case manager is in the process of reunifying with her son. she's achieved 96 likely to pass hiv to her sexual partner. and this is what success looks like and it didn't start or end with me writing a prescription and we know that changes are coming. this is not the time to change course on the hiv services. when in the; isn't that so we saw a surge of epidemics of tuberculous deaths. we can't afford to go backwards. i'm here asking you to keep those programs whole and sustain the services that protect our public health. i'll be here every year if i need to be and remind you what th

to the parent would provide a way of eliminating or reducing that threat hippa provides clear authority. >> a specific example of patient is bipolar and the medicine may no longer be used but assume their lithium level shows a slow and the patient is not taking their drug. we have documented that. can the docs say to the mom -- >> we were also talking in cases of incapacity -- >> of what? >> of incapacity. >> i'm not saying incapacity. when the level falls they don't immediately become incapacitated they are on the potential verge. >> then i think the pathway, if the result of that would be a serious consequence for that individual's health than hippa provides a path for those communication's. >> there seems seems to be a little bit of wiggle room there. a guy can get back on the dose and bring him back up to snuff it i'm not sure the physician would find the safe harbor in that kind of answer. >> i think the greater safe harbor congressman would be this. we have received 80,000 cases since we began enforcing and only 12 of them have resulted in monetary penalties. >> what you are talki

and provider groups. my doors always open. i took the initiative this morning to connect with several family members here today because i want to hear from them. i want to know concerns. >> i'm going to come right back to you. are you familiar with these guys? to have a sense of how effective they are? >> i'm not sure how effective they are, but i can't comment generally about the outreach and education program and with all due respect to oci and hhs, we have a major problem in this area but if you read regulations, there are ample places where these issues among the problem of notifying parents and individuals at risk as spelled out. anosognosia is a misunderstood regulations. it's misunderstood by the public, health care providers. >> let me interrupt you to say i fully agree with you that for a long time. i knew that and i think -- in fact i wonder if some physicians don't hide be timed hippa just move onto the next patient did not want to be bothered in regard to questions about their loved one. i hop

for years we have been a anchor in the community not only providing wrap around services but also providing much needed hiv health education services and linkages to general care. in the past two years the tenderloin center have gotten 16 clients to healthy conditions. i've contributed 1/3rd of our clients come from the tenderloin with the highest community of environmental load 20 percent are currently living with hiv. i've contributed the - i believe in the philosophy of about creating our system designed to educate we've been able to lesson the hiv - we're serving some of san francisco most vulnerable people with the greatest needs. people have traveled across the state to get those services. our community are investing in the health and we ask that you continue to invest in their health as well >> thank you. next speaker >> my name is dave and i'm a case client. i've been living with hiv since 1984 living with this has been tragic for me. i lost my job because i couldn't get out of my place. but i became homeless. two years ago, i got all the help you neat mental health care, food and t

we provide a loan to a entrepreneur. we post it on their website. individual lenders such as yourselves can lends to that business as little as $25. as soon as that business funds working solutions is reimbursed. it provides marketing and exposure to the business and working capital for working solutions. also star bucks and the opportunity finance network has given us lending capital but i want to mention that wells fargo is the organization that initially capitalized our loan fund 2005. >> does the queva and prior loan status like a traditional loan provided to a client? >> that's a good question. i'm not sure but they have to meet our eligibility requirements but that's a good question. >> okay. >> any other commissioner comments or questions? great thank you very much. you guys do very, very good work. next speaker. >> thank you commissioners. next under financing your business is the u.s. business women owners. we're joined by mark quinn direct director for northern california. >> thank you. >> welcome. >> thank you president adams. nice to add

we have nonprofits that provide some legal resources. technical assistance. obviously you have met some of our key partners with our economic development organizations or as we -- as the city calls them we call them our neighborhood economic development organizations. that's our internal language for entities like womens' initiative. renaissance center, la cocina, urban solutions, working solutions, meta. and of course one of our key things that we need to talk to businesses about in terms if they're going into brick and mortar is ada compliance. making sure they're aware of potential aba liabilities that the property may have. tax credits associated with that. are they in a enterprise zone and can they engage in tax credits and what are the counseling services out there? we do see quite a few businesses that are already established but they want to know how do i become a certified vendor with the city and county of san francisco and we connect them with that division. the green program. we let them know what resources are there when starting the business wit

by providing programs, we have networking events and zammer and that provides the at some point to meet recruiters and talk about their skills which today's hiring managers are looking for employees to work with. they get to meet people who they might employ, they sit on our career panels and they come and do portfolio reviews for us as well. bay vac made it's name through media link. they learn basic tech skills that the dot com companies were in need of. they went to work for yahoo and adobe and many of those participants are employed with those companies today. today the team leaders like the companies in the slide that you see are sending their current employees to make sure their skills are up to date. they employ their employees for free at a state contract that we've had for 13 years. this is how bay vac has built relationships with those managers. many of them are start up like practice fusion and many are interactive bass the sector is as dynamic and many of those companies get bought by larger companies. they got bought by facebook a couple weeks ago and oftentimes those small

those records are created by the provider. they're only created when the call is taking place when the text messages being transmitted. they maintain those records in the ordinary course of business. they provide you with cellular service. they're not nearly as precise as gps. depend on call volume at harmonizing the the tower closest to you. you may been shuffled off to another tower. unlike gps they can place you within a building or house or certain within the room. with himself our information there two types, historical, what cell towers your phone was hitting off. back in january given they are given week. or a perspective which is what cell towers, your phone will be heading off for the next 30 or 40 days. generally speaking the closest thing to uniformity we have in the country regard historical cell tower information, standard gym and the courts in this country is the can has to be so specific. sort of the functional the prevalence of suspicion. there's one circuit that tells that's a floor and on the ceiling. but for

we also provide ongoing training and resource resources. and we have trained all city departments, language liaisons and provided community grants to service providers and partner closely with the language access network and other community-based organizations. we are also developing a community interpreter certification training program that we hope to launch later this year. this will provide opportunities for job skills development and help meet the needs of businesses, schools and the community in our city. finally i think that we should recognize some of the major departments, the department of emergency management, san francisco public utilities commission, the police department and the dept. of pub. health to name a few and many others who have significantly increase their efforts to better reach our diverse residence by printing translation notices and announcements, conducting outreach and education and supporting community-based events. , we are working hard to make sure we meet and exceed the requirements of the line which axis o

social services to provide more responsible solutions which

providers like private employers who provide e-mail to their employees. the statute in some important way is including in the provision that governs voluntary disclosure of the content, making a distinction between your employer who can provide content of your e-mails to law enforcement or anybody else, for that matter, voluntarily and google and yahoo and microsoft, who cannot. the department suggested that corporate employers who provide internal e-mail networks for their employees, to require a warrant for that content as well for these clothes networks, it would create an anomalous situation where if a corporation is being investigated for some sort of criminal activity, a paper trail or e-mail that had been printed out, the department would be able to get with a subpoena, but if it were not printed out, the department would need a warrant for it. or if it was sitting in a file cabinet, it would be obtainable by subpoena, but if it were attached to an e-mail, the department would need a warrant. very significant position for the department to take. >>

so for the take aways, it provided us an opportunity for real exchange and interaction. the military has a lot of capability and sometimes we don't always know how best to modify that in an appropriate response and being able to get together and practice the situation allowed us to understand each other better. the lessons learned: throughout the exercise a lot of lessons learned were gains and we're taking those lessons and applying them to real processes where we have interchange and response. 18 months of planning allowed us certain benefits as well. we were able to look at the capabilities that each other brought to the table in these type of environments and we were able to really take those and learn more about each other for future responses. we were able to take and provide a taylored response package to better serve the customer. again, we don't want to go in with a full package that the state or civil environments aren't really asking for, we want to be sure it's taylored appropriately and it's responsive and timely. we also had the humanitarian assistance coor

and cpm c needs to be the hospital providers. so whenever they need to come to the hospital. cpm c providers the care. not all will go to the hospital. you can't add that 30,000 because it's how many people go to the hospital every year. the 5400 that cpm c over and above is responsible for those that go to the hospital for care. the 30,000 number is out and inpatient cared for directly by cpm c. the 5400, think of it like insurance. in whether it's one or 53 hundred in a given year, cpm c has to provide care for them. it's a managed care model. >> there are some similarities. remember if there was a concern if you made it medi-cal lives only and there were fewer med patients then their charitable contribution would have been less. i have a couple more questions about parking. there is less parking now. it seems to me if there are concerned about congestion because you are on us 101, on a congested area, if people are utilizing the hospital either visitors or staff members or others you would have them pull into a parking place a

they can be child care providers so our clients can go out and work. >> we found more and more women of child bearing age come down with cancer and they have kids and the kids were having a horrible time and parents were having a horrible time. how do parents tell their kids they may not be here? what we do is provide a place and the material and support and then they figure out their own truth, what it means to them. i see the behavior change in front of my eyes. maybe they have never been able to go out of boundaries, their lives have been so rigid to sort of expressing that makes tremendous changes. because we did what we did, it is now sort of a nationwide model. >> i think you would be surprised if you come to these clinics. many of them i think would be your neighbors if you knew that. often times we just don't discuss that. we treat husband and wife and they bring in their kids or we treat the grandparents and then the next generation. there are people who come in who need treatment for their heart disease or for their diabetes or their high blood pressure or their cholesterol

cpm c will provide medical services for people outpatient. it will be beneficiaries for 10 years at least which may come to provide services. like in the last agreement there is a foundation. cpm c will fund this with $9 million approximately. it's already been identified and although there will be additional funds available as well. in the health service system, the agreement includes protecting the city's health service system from increases by capping rates for ten years and limits premium increases for 5 persianly -- percent -- annually after that. moving off to health care items onto to affordable housing. the clear sheet includes 2 affordable housing payments. to compensate for 25 units that will be displaced. this is for the planning and codes. this will be paid at the time c p pulls the permit for demolition. and the mayor's office of housing affordable housing fund. the van ness special use district which causes housing to be a large part of projects being used. agreement includes 30 percent local higher for construction jobs, includ

force meeting i provided a cd with all the documents. although we e-mailed all those documents we offered a cd to him and to the task force. at the same task force meeting, the task force ruled that our department is required to provide the e-mails in original format and not pdf copies and it was on cd. since i didn't know how to format the e-mails and forwarded to the requester i suggested they have them download to c d and i asked for his mail address and i can mail those cd's to them. as of today, mr. nooi man has not been willing to meet with us. >>> comment on this? >> david popel in this instance i think the d p w have met and gone above and beyond to offer to meet with the complainant. it has the back project that was looking for some financial controls. i was also concerned that this particular complaint was addressed to both mr. new rue and was the department head at the time and might also be bifurcated to chapter 3 hearing and it wasn't calendared. you can deal with mr. lee tonight. i don't know if you need to recalendar that

you are not a licensed providers, and i correct?nd you are not a practicing therapist in this field? it's important for the record because on page ten of your written testimony, you said the doctors don't want to share information and, quote, it is a convenient excuse not to talk to families or listen to what they know about a patient and you went on to say that it's easier to avoid difficult conversations on prognosis and treatment options. dr. martini is that true that they don't want to know this information. >> i think the majority of the physicians are interested in sharing that information. and they very much want to involve the families and care. we know that particularly for psychiatric patients the prognosis is improved. one of the ways i look at it is i see a patient at the most the families are dealing with these individuals on an ongoing basis, and i think any recommendation i made as a clinician is much more likely to be successful if i'm able to get the support of the family. >> kelley in a word or two because it on se

it does not provide the overhead and administrative costs. we feel that having the direct costs continue to be paid should not diminish the number of residents who can be trained in those programs. again, it would not be a budget choice in a different budget time, but it is a time of the very scarce resources. we are trying to make sure that we can fulfill all our obligations. >> i appreciate this. it is a concern. at the end of the day, after all of the effort we created to provide coverage that was both affordable, which is a big goal at thecommittee, and same time amplify the universe of what americans would be further covered and presently are and stop having people going to the emergency room, it fortes the necessity physicians in the country. cutting this particular field, while i understand the challenges and the trade-offs, it's just undermining the very essence of some of the goals that we intended under the affordable care act. i hope we will be able to visit it as we move forward. thank you, madam secretary. >> thank you, senator.

you could still provided with changes so long as they're not a physical change. this does allow for landmarking to provide while a sequa change is preponderance of the evidence so there's only some overlap. there should be a some things that should be allowed to precede. the project sponsor who ultimately bears the costs of those procedures that the project sponsor can get some physical approvals done instead of just freezing everything in the. if the sequa determinations is over turned by the board then the approvals could be validate but that be the the determination of the project sponsor could decide >> i guess my point is i understand that's a decision of the project sponsor can make but what does that mean for the city agencies where they have to spend money and you have the board of supervisors rooefrg the sequa rules. >> you know where if sequa is over turned we could have a different result but i know your co- sponsoring some legislation. >> and then the other point that i would make is one of the other things that happens for the community to provide fe

does that mean we weren't providing adequate lay library space in the past years? we could still move forward with that with 20 thousand square feet and find it suitable and sufficient for the law library >> chair, supervisor kim. i believe with respect to the statements about the existing conditions i think those are statements of fact i don't think the city was trying to take a position it's not the issue where respect to the filing of the court. it's just a statement because i think that context is helpful for the board to making the decision what have they operated over the past 18 years >> the lease before us initially offers 16 hundred and 33 square feet though with the option to grow the 35 feet so would i want it be suitable for the law library since that's what we're offering them. >> but the resolution is worded in a way that their married with the two issues in the case. i believe it is no greater than 20 thousand square feet and by taking the action before the board today your ratifying the terms and conditions of the briefing as well so there isn't a d

we are here to provide a, b and c to the seniors. a stands for access.nds for basic skills and c stands for content. and unless we have all three, the monolingual chinese seniors are never going to be able to use the computer or the internet. >> a lot of the barrier is knowledge. people don't know that these computers are available to them, plus they don't know what is useful. >> there are so many businesses in the bay area that are constantly retiring their computer equipment that's perfectly good for home use. computers and internet access are helping everybody in the community and people who don't have it can come to us to help with that. one of the biggest problems we see isn't whether people can get computers through programs like ours, but whether they can understand why they need a computer. really the biggest issue we are facing today is helping people understand the value of having a computer. >> immediately they would say can i afford a computer? i don't speak any english. how do i use it. then they will start to learn how to do email or how to

i'm here to provide you with a brief summary of the results that have survey. it's already been presented to members of the public utilities commission and i will move through it fairly quickly and answer questions you may have. you will see here the methodology of the survey, it tracts the survey that we have conducted for p u c and prior years and we have conducted many interviews in mid-february. those results were statistically weighted. the survey was conducted on land lines and in english, chinese and spanish to not exclude participation. the results of the survey we conducted last year in 2012 as well as an initial survey done in 2011. however, interpreting those results i want to draw cautions about differing methodologies which limit them being entirely apples to apples comparisons. first there's a number of places where we changed the word to go better reflect the substance of the program as it existed at the time of each survey. similarly there were predicted rates and that information shifted. this year for the first time we had an up to date data b

but i do want to provide some perspective. this city too has made an investment in these tech companies. and when we changed our tax system last year, if you look at the over all amount that the tech industry is paying in taxes in san francisco, it's about 5 percent less they are paying today in the system. i think the board of supervisors supported the effort to move away from the payroll tax. any businesses and industry comes with responsibility. the question that i hope we get to see an answer for is what are they doing, not saying, but what are they doing in response to that investment from the city. are we truly getting anything in concrete in return. what i have seen in my neighborhood and district especially mount mission that we have seen a great influx of tech workers. we are happy to see so many people want to come into this neighborhood. but with that influx comes some challenges. resents in the mission have increased dramatically in the last year 1/2 and it's not uncommon to see a one bedroom apartment going for $3

we can still provide top level trauma care and still provide as the recovery unfolds the kind of primary care and other care that will need to happen when our infrastructure has been seriously impacted. so it really has shifted how we're thinking literally from a tactical, just immediately taking care of what's in front of us, to a strategic kind of plan that we can now look at and really do the best for the city. >> so the captain and the colonel, through the discussions that took place yesterday, what are some of the things you learned about relating to civilian issues that will exist and how will you be able to help? ?oo ?a northern california has rich and diverse medical response capabilities. it's impressive the types of capabilities, the number of assets, the number of people trained to do these things are. the california national guard has air and land assets that are substantial and can be rapidly deployed to assist the civil responders in their mission to move people, to get things set up, to establish common security. it's a partnership that really needs to happen and is natura

the survey really, the main objective is to be able to provide an updated precinct heat map that we've shown here in this setting before, that's the map of san francisco broken up by precincts that shows with color variation where the highest acceptance rates are of our clean power sf program and that will really help us focus our efforts on locations where customers have the most interest in participating and we're testing customers through this survey to determine their general awareness and understanding of clean power sf, their willingness to pay more for 100% green renewable energy product, the likelihood of customers opting out with the not to exceed rates that we are testing, and their interest in having that opportunity to invest locally in local clean energy projects like energy efficiency and renewable generation, and then we're also going to be testing their relative interest in clean power sf versus the pg and e proposed green tariff option that i just summarized, that data should be available in early march for us to begin to share and it's one of the key steps in an updat

instead he spent the time and effort to provide those things. he has provide nothing. and now he is not -- you have to be personally certified to do the work. we just ask who is the person to do this work has certification. i have not received a single document. all the time is attacked me personally. he's filed a lawsuit in the court and acquired title. the court already ruled. they don't have an easement. he's responsible for preventing the project from moving forward. we already said we give you a document that is now filed again and again. you have to have a property certified and give us that information. you are working on our property. we have to be protected. somebody fall, you do something. he already told me when we are not there he come down and he did that. he said you have to sue me and this kind of attitude has been going on for a long time. it's because of who i am and then they treat me differently. that's all. there is more photos. >> i'm sorry, your time is up. we have a question for you. >> miss sang, i read back and forth with joe butler and so the

funding for this program was provided by... woman: you have the biggest smile on your face right now. oh, bananas! narrator: when things go well, most days are characterized by a list of routines, a series of middle moments which may include eating, sleeping, toileting, and playing. these are the moments in a child's preschool life when valuable lessons are learned. tell him it's your grocery cart. it's my grocery. hello. i'm joanne hendrick, author of the whole child and your guide to this video series. in this program, we'rgoing to look at some of the daily routines which make up most of a young child's day. we'll see why these "middle moments" can be so meaningful in the lives of our preschool children, and we'll learn what we can do to help foster both emotional and physical growth during these middle moment opportunities. we'll visit with children and teachers from a number of different early childhood programs-- family day-care homes, head start, university-based lab schools, and private child-care centers-- and we'll see

we can provide advice to the justice department. give us that. we do not need this other stuff. >> maybe this is a bit far- fetched to say that a chairman will say, take away my discretion. that is sort of the currency of power in d.c. spectrum to options wireless carriers, there are certain restrictions that makes it unpalatable for certain bidders. they want to steer the spectrum to favor constituents. when theuld like lobbyist comes in and says, i want you to put restrictions but are only valuable for my business plan, i wanted to say, i cannot do that. i would love to help you out, but that discretion has been taken away from me. that, theress dueoes conversation will always go the wrong way. what is navigate economics? it is part of a larger firm called navigant consulting. >> what is your background? my teeth at the security and exchange commission in two years ago. i have a phd in economics. when i'm not do not begin stuff, i'm typically writing. >> you write out bloomberg government. bloomberg government. >> we have our own network. build

various neighborhood groups that we worked with as well as the bar owners and the merchants that provided feedback, as well as the small business commission, the entertainment commission, and the planning commission. this legislation i think really tries to strike the right balance in making sure that we continue night life on polk street that is healthy, but is also safe and respectful of our neighborhoods. and with that, colleagues, i ask for your support. >> colleagues, can we take this same house same call? same house, same call, this ordinance passes on first reading. [gavel] >> madam clerk can you please call item -- next item, please. >> items 23 through 25 are from the land use and economic development committee with a recommendation of do not pass. item 23 is an ordinance amending the general plan, the van ness area plan in order to facilitate the development of a high density medical center. the california pacific medical center cathedral hill campus at nexus avenue and goodyear i boulevard and reflecting various elements of the use. item 24 is the urban design element to increa

we are changing the requirement, the provider from the color scheme to the dispatch service. as director -- said, adding the real-time requirement to make the application work. >> and the real-time requirement, not all of this information is going to have to be entered in real-time by a taxicab driver, the number of passengers, what else is a driver going to have to enter? >> the only thing the driver would enter is a number of passengers, and using the vehicle number. (overlapping speakers) whether a vehicle is available or hired as a status of legal information that would have to be pushed out of the system so the system can know whether to offer that vehicle. >> may be the most important information. okay, i know me to conclude the discussion. i appreciate the answer and i suspect director lee will have follow-ups. my biggest question, which discloses a position that i have held for over a year now, would this proposal in adopting this now preclude us from doing something we have talked about an hour workshop at numerous meetings? of having a credit card dispatch system wh

does that mean we weren't providing adequate lay library space in the past years? we could still move forward with that with 20 thousand

i think it's very appropriate that we have a former child care provider on our ranks with supervisor yee and i want to thank him for the next recognition. (applause) >> thank you. this is really an honor for me to be able to do this today. the week of the young child that just started sunday is celebrated by cities throughout the united states. and could i have the people that are going to be recognized, representatives -- all the representatives come up. evidence clearly shows that early years of the child's life are the learning years. early childhood education gives children a jump start on education for their kindergarten and elementary school years. according to many studies in recent years, the children who attend preschool do better in math and reading skills than children who do not attend. a child who attends an early education program also has increased cognitive skills at the beginning of the kindergarten. a study from the massachusetts institution of technology says that early education baits boosts the economy by providing jobs to nearly 3 million people nationwide. ~ th

we provide housing counseling. we provide application assistance for affordable housing. we provide tenant rights counseling and landlord mediation, eviction prevention, back rent funds, move in and deposit funds, short term rent subsidies linked to job training, links to care and assistance with unemployment and appeals et cetera. we also have a [inaudible] at uc hastings. our eviction prevention funds in total cost us about 100 per month for the people that we serve. 90% of we remain in contact with over the next 12 months. we lose fewer than 10% to follow up and we are able to reach the 90% permanently housed during this period so i think for the investment that we have out comes that we're proud of and i think it shows to the effectiveness of the work that we do. looking at our senior and older adult lgbt folks 19% are lgbt seniors -- >> i'm sorry. can you repeat that number. >> 19% of the people that we serve are lgbt and senior and older adults and 26% of those are literally homeless and that compares to 21% of the title client population so the senior and older adu
