to the b.l.a. team. do you have a report on items 5 and 6? >> we have a report on the commercial paper. >> supervisor cohen: i would love to hear your thoughts. >> so, as you noted, the commercial paper program is $100 million and then the maximum 12% interest rate would add another $9 million, so what the board is up to 109 million. pointed out that 12% interest rate maximum, you see that in all this ty of legislation, and it's not the actual inter rate that would be paid. on page, sorrget to the page of the repo. there are annual fees that go with the commercial paper program. somehow i lost th page. yes, page six of the report, i'm sorry. close to $500,000 per year for the program, and then also the cost of authorizing, about 171,000, but the commercial paper also is low interest loan pending issuance of bond and other debt and we recommend approval. >> supervisor cohen: recommend approval. thank you four that recommendation. seeing that there are no further questions for item six and -- 5 and 6, i think we should go to public comment, any

the b.l.a. report was shared. we were part of the group that was in agreement. i want to take a brief moment to thank the mayor's budget office as well as the legislative analyst. the entire team. and of course members of the budget committee. i am here to answer any additional questions the committee may have. >> fantastic. the mayor added a million dollars in baseline funding for out of school time for eth let r athletics. this is great. i want to make sure the granting organizations are well distributed. no committees that don't have access to programs. start there and i have a few questions. start there about the strategy on laying out the additional million dollars. >> sure. so thank you for the question. we are very fortunate that mayor farrell was able to allocate additional funds into our budget to support athletics program through our two-year process, we've heard from parents and from young people about the need for more recreational activities in the city. we are grateful that the mayor was able to do that for us. through our r.s.p. process, we did allocate funding for sports programs. we had a specific category called out of school time sports. as such, we were abl

team players. >> supervisor cohen: let me see if i can wrap this up. sounds like there's universal acceptance for the cuts. thank you for the b.l.a. for that. we can provide you some direction for you and commission for the consideration that we hear you a you need ambulances. but we want sprinters. they are more cost efficient and more fuel efficient and in line with vision zero which is three important principles that governs san francisco. i like to introduce this as a motion. i want to make a recommendation that we accept the b.l.a. cut. i also would like to just add that the pilot program -- excuse me, the department purchase 16 vision zero compatible ambulances using their carry forward. >> we agree with all the cuts but the $700,000. that would be independent of what we had agreed on. we feel like $1.4 million will be used for 16 and the $700,000 catch us to number closer to the 23 that we need to replace. we need 700k. >> supervisor cohen: i think that this would allow you to make -- to purchase 16 sooner and update the fleet in a more expedited manner. >> yes to the 1.4 that has been set aside with some of our ambulance revenue. wh
