and the manager of the s.f. p.u.c. i'm here to provide you with a brief presentation on the results of two data transactions are executed, both benefiting the wastewater enterprise. the transactions are the wastewater revenue bond and the loan transaction. sorry. thanks. so on this slide, i will talk about the 2018 at wastewater revenue bond sale which the commission authorized on july 10 th. on july 18th, a week later, we price through 594 million of the series abc bonds. the average borrowing term or maturity of the bonds is almost 20 years, and the come mind cost is 3.44%. proceeds of the bonds will be used to fund portions of the wastewater capital program, including ss ip and nonss ip projects. two of the series of bonds is series a and series iii were designated and sold as green bonds which, as you know, it is -- we are an issuer of and we are a leader in this area of municipal findings. as you may recall from when he presented this item to you, with this sale, they have issued a terse long-term variable rate th

they can be challenging and i think s.f. p.u.c. is more reasonable. there are these constraints for the agreements. that has made it very hard. i gave your stuff credit for trying to work through that. certainly, if we can avoid litigation, that would make a lot of sense. there are are ways that we can support some of the positions. for us, it is about results. water, we think will help produce some of those results, but the habitat rests -- restoration is important too. they agree that their feeling is that they cannot require habitat restoration and predator suppression, but they can incentivize it through this flexible and adaptive management >> in addition to the n.g.o. and the p.u.c., that is my question. it is really imperative, from our perspective, and i'm speaking on behalf of the commission can't correct me if i am wrong, but the organization is also part of that conversation. i'm trying to get an understanding of what today's position as is. think you. >> president kwon: i understand the situation. i am part of an organization that represen

i have been an s.f. resident for 21 years. and i have been going down to businesses on ninth and irving for pretty much the whole time i have been in this city. and what these two brothers have brought in, not just in a single ice cream shop that keeps to itself, they actively try to benefit the community around them. they actively partnered with a couple businesses around the area in the process process of creating their ice cream and allowing other businesses to share and giving their ice cream to different groups. they have also donated certain slavers' profits to different charities in support of a number of different causes. if you ever go visit, you will see some of their slavers and no that it isn't a big corporation that is trying to put 100 trucks on different streets. they are small business that is just trying to help expand the downtown area ' a culture and, hopefully, bring back a lot of people to the downtown area, which has been severely harmed in the past decade. not due to pedestrian traffic, but massive amoun

the s.f. police department traffic company is increasing its enforcement near 20 schools and foe cushion on our high injury corridors where the majority of the accidents happen throughout city. we know that the key to reducing accidents and fatalities is reducing the speed that cars are traveling. a pedestrian hit by a car going 30 miles per hour is six times more likely to die than a car going 20 miles per hour. the sfmta is repainting approximately 90 crosswalks to make them visible -- more visible to drivers and we are deploying 187 crossing guards and we are joined here today by some of our most talented crossing guards in the city. thank you all so much for your work. i went to rosa parks elementary school and we would all walk to school together and we were so fortunate because we always had a cotszing gar. there was someone that made sure we got to school safely. that is what this is about. keeping our kids safe. along with enforcement, we know that we need to make physical changes to o

we see that in a role cost at s.f. general. so it was a cost born by the taxpayers of san francisco but there's a larger social cost that we have estimated at more than $500 million annually to the injuries and fatalities that we see on the streets. it is about saving lives and we're going to talk a lot about statistics. and i don't want to lose sight that these are real people, real neighbors, real friends. these are the names of the folks that we have lost just this year. i am not going to read them all out loud and i hope that we can all keep them in our thoughts as we make our way through this presentation. so overall, san francisco sees 30 traffic deaths per year. last year we had 20 recorded traffic deaths which was our lowest on average ever, recorded in san francisco history. and those are still 20 people who didn't make it home. so, you know, there's no opportunity for congratulations here and we still have to focus on getting to zero. and in san francisco seniors represent a disproportionate number of those deaths. so

heat the river up that uses up energy and it costs money with summer seemingly getting hotter being s.f. is investing in more thrilling towers. where thinking they'll be more of a need to cool down then in the past due to company expansion as well as possible climate change this kind of construction is about being prepared. for. the rivers temperature and oxygen levels have to be monitored constantly it's almost twenty eight degrees in the brine near mine it's. high temperatures leave companies with the choice of either reducing production or paying for the continued use of river water. that firms are forced to pay for using river water we've installed a measuring instrument to firms have to pay when they reintroduce the cooling water and that's caused them to rethink the practice. low water levels are also proving a headache cargo ships are traveling almost empty and many goods have to be shipped by rail or road. the hot weather is driving up b.s. sales and nowhere more than in china is now the world's biggest be a market and heineken wants in on the act it wants to expand in the count
