on that issue, the obama administration and sf puc under the obama administration did something amazing and has locked in the protection for internet neutrality, internet equality and the obama administration last a couple more years and that is going to change . if we are going to build a citywide public broadband open to all income levels, we need to start now. i would urge lafco to front and center this system. to get it ready to go as soon as we have cleanpowersf off the launch pad and elections which i think was listed in the agenda. this is a little bit more of a future thinking item like public banks. the voting has improved things but it's not doing what progressives thought it was going to do to improve the elections and make-up the board of supervisors. i think we should start changing the board of supervisors to' representation to bring a lot more public diversity and a lot of activist would run because they would have a chance to win. it may profoundly approve a city government. >> that's intriguing. is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment is clos

>> sf puc had tlees loans back in the 90's and the current rate is pegged at the state general obligation bond rate which is right now, and that's 50 percent of that rate, so right now our rate would be about 1.7 percent. once you add in our financing costs and capitalized interest and that sort of expenses the cost would be about 2 1/2 percent or so for our borrowing expense, compared to our revenue bonds if we were to issue a revenue bond that would be in the 4 1/2 percent range, so it's about a 2 percentage point savings if we were able to secure these loans. so the first step is for the commission to take action on this today. the state is actually looking for this resolution to be part of the loan application process. it would go to the board of supervisors as well to have them approve that, that ordinance, then we would package these documents up and submit that to the state for them to consider our future loan application. >> thank you. that's a significant reduction. >> wonderful. >> so i just -- to further understand that a lilts bit -- that translates into two million per year f
