you already pay for the gardening work by rec and park. you are funding everything there, with a couple of narrow exceptions. it is not clear to me what productive role rec and park has out there now. they have no visible presence out there in a long time. they are stretched too thin. this is more in sorrow than in anger. they are stretched too thin to do anything out there except collect rent at some facilities. i strongly want to support what steve ritchie said about creating a position -- call it a manager or an ombudsman or a liaison -- that could be a point where the information is received and decisions can be made. that is a great idea. so many of these water issues fall under your jurisdictions. there is storm runoff, recycle water, ground water, wastewater. these are all factors that properly should be under your control. finally, on the question of expenditures for the boat house, i know it is controversial sometimes, but i want to strongly support the expenditures for fixing it up. as a west sideer, that has been an embarrassmen

i do have a familiarity with rec and park staff. i also want to defend them in terms of what i think they are capable of doing. also, the rec and park staff have welcomed management models that the shore all of us that there is greater accountability to staff. president moran: commissioner molokai and. -- commissioner moller caen. commissioner moller caen: perhaps we should continue this item and work on the mou. it does not use -- it does not seem to be in a completed state right now. perhaps that would be the best approach. >> i would concur. a couple of thoughts also. it did resonate with meet the reminder that lake merced is part of our water supply. and is a -- and is an emergency source of water in san francisco. that is significant. from my environmental lines of climate change, which we know is approaching, and the water issue that we know we will face state wide and locally, i think that is a significant issue to remind ourselves and place it squarely under our responsibility as a water supply system. there was another piec

which puts betting chefs that each rec center against those of other rec centers. it is a food cooking battle for bragging rights. it is a great even for neighbors, staff, and teams. if you're hungry and cannot wait for next thursday for thanksgiving and you want an early start on some turkey and side dishes and desserts, come on by the rec center tomorrow night and held judge this year's top chefs. tomorrow and saturday, 9:00 a.m. to noon, the lady the partners and rec and park will have a two-day volunteer cleanup and gardening project where they will plant over 300 new plants. all are welcome to join. the last upcoming event, december 8, our 82nd annual holiday tree lighting at mclaren lodge. it follows a tradition first started by park superintendent john mclaren. it is a celebration of the holidays. this year, we will have live entertainment, christmas carols, writes for kids, arts and crafts, and a rumored visit from santa claus. i would now like to quickly show us, to deny to cover everything during the report, some of the highlights from the last month that

>> it would go back to rec and park, but it would be used on site. commissioner vietor: this seems to be for some basic repairs, right, to the boat house? is it all for the boat house? >> it is for the upper story of the bauhaus, renovation of the bathrooms -- boat house, renovation of the bathrooms, basic cleanup of the inside and additional repairs. it does not make a finished space a tenant could walk into at this point. we can either, through an rfp, get a tenant to make apartments, or through additional funding from the puc or rec and park, bring it to a level where we would find it functional for ourselves. commissioner vietor: the sense is that needs to be spent to even lease it. >> that is the sense. we think it is important to have a new boat house. we think it is a long process to get to that. we need to do something to make this space functional on an interim basis to get to that point. commissioner vietor: having sat in on a couple of lake merced meetings, i know there was quite a bit of discussion around rec and park. to date, they have

the chinese rec center is now 70% complete. the helen diller playground will be opening in march 2012. we have now began two rounds of community opportunity programs and continue to move forward in that program's implementation. i think it is a good moment for us to pause and celebrate the progress of this project and just see how all the reforms put in place in 2008 continue to bear good results. again, we have one project complete and many others in construction. we are currently in design and planning on the remainder of the six neighborhood parks in the second half of the bond. i'm going to quickly go through these. this just details of progress we have made on a citywide program side. the spending has been a little slower on the city wide program side then i would like to see things like the environmental review. also, these projects are environmentally complex. there's a lot of value in these projects. this briefly summarizes the real appropriation that we also discussed about a month and half ago. it was necessary to get

and the manager of the rec and park commission.going to put an order of the termination from the sunshine or dance task force, and i am going to speak to you about a resolution that was pants -- past 10 years ago, around the middle of september 2001. before i do that, i would like the public to take note of the people in front of them today, the quality of the people that are representing the san francisco and san francisco values. i would like everybody to specifically take notice of a david lee, president of the chinese political group here in san francisco, and noted that ed lee is now the mayor. so here i am go -- here i go. this resolution was passed in 2001, and it specifically says the golden gate park stables working group shall evaluate possible funding opportunities for capital improvement needs at the golden gate park stables in the most efficient and effective manner to repair and improve those stables. that was 10 years ago. my question to you and to every citizen of the public is, what is the probability of the worst

primary enforcement is for rec and park. >> are we going to hear from rec and park? i would be curious to hear from them. i know they are strapped for cash, and i would like to see how they plan to do that. >> the next speaker is rec and park and i think we all would acknowledge that they don't have the staff. >> i want to make one other comment and express my thanks to supervisor wiener. his commitment to see that the departments have the resources that they need. i wanted to express appreciation for that as well. >> i actually have another question, not so much for me but perhaps for the commission. supervisor, if you could briefly go over the fees or how it will be disseminated, who will get it? flesh that out for us a bit. >> we set a maximum fee because the feet is -- the fee is what it takes to oversee the program. the first year it is a maximum of $250, and then after that a maximum of $100. the departments will have do an assessment. it would be collected by animal care and control. >> and it would go back into the management of this program? >> yes. >> if i

rec and park. for information on classes and registration, go online to www.sfreconline.org, or visit mclaren lodge in golden gate park. get ready for extreme classes. get outside and play in the urban outdoors of san francisco. the rugged geography of the city is prepared for the sport of skateboarding. sf rec and park classes are designed for those who are beginning and those who have mastered the fundamentals. choose between beginning and intermediate class los. begich learn the basics and fundamental safety. learn how to take a fall and get back for more action. dropping in on a quarter pipe and try the basis of all the tricks, progress to kick flips, sliding, and writing. increase your skills and move up to ramps and obstacles. s.f. rec and park instructors are also professional skaters. sign up and learn from the pros to develop your confidence on the board. listen up, parents. kids enrolled in glasses become safer skaters as they learn in a supervised environment. >> i am the general manager

the rec and park director has an entire industrial hygiene division under his management. even with this highly paid, licensed staff to take care of just these types of issues, and multiple warnings from the community about the presence of lead in the 68-year-old structure, mr. ginsberg allows the contamination of golden gate park to occur. it will impact the environment for years to come. the work area of the boathouse was never cordoned off. there were no signs of warning. let alone persons with respiratory or fertility problems about the presence of floating lead particular attention of speed up babies and children who are most vulnerable were not kept away from the area. there were no restrictions for anyone. dozens of gardeners were brought in to lanes get the area surrounding the boathouse at the same time the painting work occurred. how many to come the particulates on their clothing, hair, and skin to their children? for a few hundred dollars, standard protective netting and plastic sheeting could've easily avoided this contamination. as with so many park issues un

at rec and park, [inaudible] move on the fly. [laughter] i hereby give you the very first hellman hallow [inaudible] [applause] [applause] >> we can take care of that. >> thank you. >> president buell and the recreation and park commission, i am absolutely thrilled. i would like to thank the city and the commission on behalf of my father and family. i am honored to be given the opportunity to address you on the occasion of your decision to adopt the san francisco board of supervisors' unanimous decision to rename speedway meadow by the name of my father, warren hellman. i am awed by the old low of love and support. i learned so much about him. many stories. these will be like family legends to me now. stories told by the extended san francisco family might father loved an. now, in the meadow fortunately renamed hellman hallow. i offer my own brief contribution by posing the question, what is in a name? in my tradition, the ethics of the fathers offers the following answer. the rabbi said, "there are three crowns. the crown of a g
