that equals the sum total of payments to the city of about $11 million. free services received by the city include free disposal, the city twitter can collection, discounted collection services, the clean team event, and other miscellaneous events throughout the year. that is a value of about $18 million. the total fees adn free services received is about $29 million. i wanted to highlight that because that seemed to be the direction of the questions. supervisor mirkarimi: is there a document that outlines the terms and conditions for the contractual relationship? is there a document that says this is everything they are supposed to pay? >> it is documentation from the rate setting process. i would like to bring up robert haley. has gone through the process and can tell you what is included in terms of documentation. supervisor mirkarimi: is there a single document that outlines this? >> roberts kentucky what documentation is. -- robert can tell you what the documentation is. >> there is quite a bit of documentation in the last rate process. there was a lot of discussi

services. we have been around for almost three years now, and we are the only african non-profit here in the city providing services to african immigrants, and i would like to take the opportunity to thank brian and all his staff for recommending us for the upcoming grant. we provide essential legal services right now because we believe that the immigration process starts with the quality. legal status. we have been so far trying to help all the africans, including also the african caribbean immigrants. in terms of integration and partnership, our first decision when we start it was to partner with community services, and i would like the opportunity to thank eric. our ambition is to expand and diversify our services. things like financial literacy. we mostly help people who have never had a bank account in their lives, and getting here and having to deal with credit cards and all kinds of financial issues is quite the challenge. we have the ambition of explaining our services, but right now, again, we would like to thank brian and all his staff and also ask for your support so that we can receiv

started looking at expanding a few years ago when the city was contemplating providing free internet service city-wide. at that point we were under contract with t-global under a pay to use service. we kept that contract in place until it could be modified to be changed. at that point it had become increasingly obvious that passengers expected to be able to access internet for free at the airport. it showed up a lot in the common cards. we did switch the contract at that point and it seemed very thoughtful. supervisor kim: this does not include domestic? >> no, it is airport wide. and the rental car center. supervisor kim: have we thought about providing wifi on our own in the airports? >> i know that that was part of the decision leading up to putting up the new rfp, but i do not think it made financial sense. supervisor kim: the advertising, i could not really understand the report in terms of the advertising. what does that mean, that the airport could also do the advertising? >> as a part of their advertising contract with us, they are allowed to advertise on site. there are many restrictions

nonprofits started serving with the goal of having -- instead of reducing costs, provide services to the community. so we have city working in partnership with nonprofit agencies to provide the services you are all provided -- child care, public housing, legal services, support for the elderly, things like that. [speaking spanish] some of the things that are at stake right now is the proposed cuts are to homeless shelter closures. i am speaking in terms of the specific numbers we will be able to pass out later. also, proposed cuts to legal services to elders. there are proposed cuts from 20% to 100% for some after-school programs that do health promotion and also homework help. there are proposed cuts of 15% to women who suffer domestic violence. the list goes on and on. next slide please. all right, so -- [speaking spanish] so, what are our roles? we believe community has to speak up to be able to inform the board of supervisors, the government, and work hand in hand with cbo's to create opportunities to solve some of these problems. small businesses can also be a partner in solving problems. in terms of communit

in terms of services for teenagers, we of 53 programs throughout the city that will provide enrichment, leadership services, and in one thing we have heard over and over again and all of our community meetings -- youth employment opportunities. we will continue that the summer. we will continue three of our largest youth employment programs in the city. one is called the mayor's youth and education program. with allocated approximately 450 slots for youth the summer. youth works, a department -- and we have allocated 150 slots this summer. and then, finally, work creation, which is a partnership with our rec and park department in which we will allocate 120 slots, through partnership of course, to have people in our park facilities this summer. and paul henderson has already touched on violence prevention. we will continue our programs in service of violence prevention services. these are full year programs for our community. but very important -- we want to make sure everybody knows that all of our violence prevention programs are working with the department of public safety throughou

services. it is looking at how we generate new revenues to support our city. we cannot follow the trend of the country looking at cutting social services in favor of the wealthy. we have to look at how we can all put together for these services and city that we want to have. thank you so much for being here. [speaking spanish] what is next is that there are a number of meetings. we're hopeful that the new mayor has opened the doors to the community. he has been having a lot of meetings up and down the city. three more are coming up on april 13, 14, and 21. those will be district 10, 8, and 11. someone will be passing out the form with all of the different dates and times that you can come and tell people in those districts to come out. [speaking spanish] the last thing i want to say is that april 6 at 1:00, the board of supervisors will hold a hearing about the budget for dcyf. that is a really important one for people to show up if you are concerned about after-school programs and family support issues. the mayor's office has been quite open to hearing feedbac

the safety service -- city circuit, position, speed, and control of the power to the motor. >> here is a really interesting piece of historic machinery. tell us about this. >> this is one of the main safety devices of the elevator system, and the device still exists today even on modern elevators. it detects if the elevator is going into unsafe over speed conditions. it is attached to the road itself, and the car over speeds, bees fly balls would come out, and the governor jobs would come out and grab on to the governor wrote, which would hold the break or the safety on the elevator to cause it to stop. >> if you have problems, i see right here, we call garfield 7171 for service. member that is right. operators standing by. >> from here, we are going to look at those wonderful elevators that go of the outside of the high rise building that everyone wants to take a ride in. >> let's go do that. >> here we are in the most exciting elevator in the city of san francisco. this is the outside elevator that goes into the 32nd floor. tell us about this. >> we are in one of the tower elevators

i also of the city to feel safe because we have a set of social services that the city can help provide in concert with the community, so that those adorable marble, the seniors and the youth, people with disabilities, and others who are challenged, and services that they can rely on to be safe, so that they can live decent lives. the city should be safe. i also want this to be a solvent city, that we have programs to pay for and afford. we cannot afford to go into debt so that we leave every year in front of us with unpaid bills. that will just make the city more difficult to manage. this is why we're doing a couple of things this year differently from other years. we are talking about trying to plan better with this budget, to think about the five-year financial plan for the city. if you plan better, just like you do at home, if you plan a budget better, you will get the things that you need. if things happen and you do not plan for them, and you should have seen them, you -- we will always be in trouble. i am looking for something that will make us solvent in the future, this is the

city. this has not had any effect on services or our ability to serve clients. obviously if we were not able to access the funding, we would obviously have a very serious problem in terms of trying to continue to fill out positions. supervisor chu: thank you very much. to underscore a comment that was made by supervisor kim, just to the increase of reserve levels in the coming years will be important so that we can make sure we have the funds to cover unexpected activity. i think that the second thing that the comptroller's office pointed out was that was not typical to draw down on reserves so significantly. this is what we have to be careful about different suppleal

there was an overall expectation of professional services within our budget that was to be distributed amongst master architect, city support staff as well as consultants supporting cm services. supervisor chu: thank you. we have no further questions from the committee, why don't we go to public comment? are there members of the public that wish to speak on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. do we have a motion to send this item out with recommendation? ok, we do have that motion and a second, so we can do that without objection. item three please. >> item 3, resolution declaring the intent of the city and county of san francisco to reimburse certain expenditures from proceeds of future bonded indebtedness, authorizing the director of the mayor's office of housing to submit an application and related documents to california debt limit allocation committee to permit issuance of residential mortgage revenue bonds in an aggregate it's about not to exceed $8,100,000 for pell street apartments. supervisor chu: thank you very much. the sponsor would like to say a few words. supervisor mirkarimi: this resolu

she worked on many business issues related to the city's electricity service, especially the contract with pg&e, including the city's right to provide electricity to the ferry building. i, as a deputy city attorney, represented the city on that effort, and it was an honor and pleasure to work with someone of her caliber. in her work, she was smart, passionate, and highly motivated. she was highly valued and loved by her colleagues at the puc and at the city attorney's office. we will miss her and we sent her family our condolences. may she rest in peace. the rest i will submit. supervisor chiu: today, i have a couple items. a number of weeks ago at weeksgao -- a couple weeks ago at our gao committee, we learned that over time continues to be an issue plaguing the city. as part of the hearing, we learn that our fire department exceeded their overtime budget by almost 1/3 of their budget. mta exceeded their budget by 10%. as we look to keep down our costs, we learned that in the administrative code, employees who work overtime hours that exceed 30% of a number of hours they are schedule

what we do, domestic violence services in this city, have done several things. working with survivors, we spend a lot less than what city services would have to pay to help survivors the second thing we do that is really important for you to realize is that in terms of the homicides that have occurred, we have reduced those down to numbers that are less than double digits. when we think about the effect of what we have done it and help with in the community, we have to consider those two things. the other thing you have to realize is the budget for the status of women is the smallest budget you will see in the city department. we have 22 different agencies that get funded through that. cutting this budget affects us deeply. we have small, tiny budgets. most of it is allocated to the shelters. we have three shelters, 72 beds for all of san francisco. i am pleading, asking, hoping that the city would not cut the budget for the department on the status of women. [applause] supervisor campos: the issue of domestic violence has been a very serious one in san francisc

county -- strategic vision for the city and county and modernizing and we're happy to be on this journey together in terms of leveraging technology, improve the services that the city provides to its citizens. so with this opportunity to work together on this innovation in terms of the benefits of cloud computing to over 23,000 municipal city employees migrating from its on-premise solution currently to a cloud-based exchange online solution that will deliver better functionality, agility as well as effectiveness for the city and county. so we're really excited to be entering into this partnership with san francisco. thank you, john. so with that i'll hand it over to john mccarthy from i.d.c. >> hi, thank you very much. they just asked me to weigh in a little bit of what's going on in government with cloud computing right now. basically, i'm sure that most of the people on this call have heard of cloud computing and the directions it's taking government, private industry, etc., and a lot of the talk has been on the potential for reducing cost, effort. what i see in cloud services is that it gives government the potential to kind of relieve government

i also want the city to be safe with the core level of services that we have traditionally provided to our seniors, youth, vulnerable communities. that naturally means that having a safe city is one of my number one priorities. i shared that with the departments. i also want the city to be solvent. we have to have programs that we can pay for and afford to have. in the discussion about having a solvent city, one of the reasons why we have a $306 million deficit is because more than 1/3 of that is increased costs in our pension contributions and health care costs for city employees. that is unfair to all of you to have a pension system that cannot pay for itself. it is unfair to the retirees. they want a dignified pension. they put in their years. with that imbalance, i have committed that as your interim mayor this year, we will have something on the ballot that makes sure we take care of this for the long term the increase in the costs will be paid attention to and we will have a system that is solvent. we have to balance the budget. we want to make sure we have programs that are effi

city. [applause] [inaudible] over $100 million a year, and it is eating our ability to deliver services. finally, i want the city to be successful. i saw the kids here tonight. some of them -- all of them are going to grow up to be successful -- [applause] [inaudible] they have the ability to do it. to have the ability to pay for the programs that they want, the training that they want, go to schools that they want, to have schools and support where they need it so they can become successful individuals, successful members of their families. the city also needs to support families and support neighborhoods that make us successful. more and more, the people coming into this city -- they are not just going to fisherman's wharf any more. they want to come to the mission. they want to experience the cultural diversity we have and celebrate with us. so a safe city, a solvent city, successful city are the principles i am sharing with everyone while we make tough decisions that are bound to come up, and i want to make them with your concerns in mind. thank you. supervisor campos: thank you. that
