-- i mean for the board to look at it -- >> mid-january. >> with a new board. >> but again -- through the chair as long as we can get to them i think by march it sounds like. >> well, i can't speak for the chancellor but when you create a program and i thought i heard her say she needs staffing to create the program. you're not going to start creating a program until you get the funding and even though with the march date that she gave it's a date when students start enrolling. you need to do the program before that so it's not waiting until march is my concern -- >> perhaps through the chair maybe ask the chancellor how terms in timeline wise we need to gear this up. i am talking about a couple weeks difference but obviously i want to hear from the chancellor. >> so the programming just to actually get where students can register in way will take four to six weeks so registration starts the last week in march if we look at last year so you start backing that up. march, february -- that doesn't give testing time so i would drop dead for the fall is january 15 otherwise pushing it back

i talk to the members of the board. they do use the system. i don't see where someone is not saying, i've never used the system. tell me what it's about. in fact, i find the opposite. they come to me with the issues they experience. >> what is the status of labor negotiations with the local 689, and what are some of the sticking points with those negotiations. >> sure. labor -- any labor negotiation gets down to three things. gets down to the salary issues, hourly rate issues against benefits, pension, health benefits and work roles. every union i've ever dealt with, that's where it generally gets to. we're at the same place. contract was up in june. they can linger for two and three years before they're settled. so we'll go -- we will continue to meet with them. we reach an impasse, we'll go to binding arbitration. we're being positive and we'll continue to work that. >> audience member wants to know what they -- why the 7000 series trains, the new trains, seem to be breaking down at a higher rate than the older cars? >> that's not technicall

i will leave it to supervisor avalos to speak at the board about the extent of that. there is the one, and i think that one area of disagreement is about supervisor avalos would like to urge the controller to suspend the wells fargo from bidding on bond sales and the controller does not agree with that and so i would expect that would be an item that you may want to discuss further when supervisor avalos is here and i think that the rest of these i imagine would be things that the controllers office could speak to. and maybe i will just leave it at that, i don't know if you want to go through the presentations of the controllers office, and i believe that the treasurer office is here and i believe that susan, the ceo of general hospital is here as well. so i will defer to the committee about how indeposit lth you want to go. diven the time constraints of the afternoon. >> ip appreciate that jeremy. >> are there any presentations that i was not aware? >> but i know that mr. rose, if you issue the report. maybe the report verses what we have in front of us, and we have
