at that point, the board found the 2015 project to be fiscally feasible. the programme at that time focusing on addressing the current level of flood risks and moderate amounts of sea-level rise. sea-level projections incorporated into the programme were based on science from 2012. since the time of the approval of that project in 2015, the science for sea level rise has been updated by 2018 new design criteria from the state of california. in march of 2018, the state of california adopted a new sea-level rise guidance programme, which the airport used to update the report before you today. the updated shoreline protection programme proposes construction of new shoreline protection systems around the entire perimeteperimeter of the airpor, including along highway 101, that would protect the airport facilities and runways against a 100-year storm and 36-inches of sea-level rise. tout ththis is estimated to cost $587 million. the significant cost increase is due to constructing infrastructure to address sea-level rise up to 36-inches rather than the previous

it did not come to the board for approval at that time. now what is being approved is the additional $12.5 million of the loan. $3 million of bond proceeds, and the balance is affordable housing fees, and repeating what ms. heervetion ha "here and "h . and it basically means that expenses are less than annual income. we have a technical amendment to this resolution, to specify that the loan amount is $18.51 million, not 18.6 million. we recommend approval as amended. >> chairwoman: thank you very much. is there a reason why the first loan was not approved by the board? >> i am actually going to refer that to the department. >> so the first loan was structured as a pre-development loan, so it was for $6 million for three years. bridge had until june of 2020 to acquire the site. so this loan is extending the original term of the previous loan to the 57-year loan. >> chairwoman: thank you very much. lelet's open this up to public comment. seeing none, public comment is now closed. colleagues, any questions or comments, besides everyone wants t

kirby also served on the board of directors at the natural resources defense council, where she is now an honorary board member, as well as the board of directors of the marin country day school. kirby was the happiest, in nature, and she loved lake tahoe where she spent summers and winters, as a child, later enjoyed with her own children. while kirby found tremendous success in her career as a filmmaker, the family came first. whether taking her husband, and sons on an adventure to expedition to rising river, or simply preparing a family dinner at home, spending time with her family brought her right pride and joy. she was widely known for spontaneous laughter, kindness, love her life that she shared with everyone from her dearest friends to hospital nurses. kirby was a bright light in our world and she will be missed terribly by her husband,, father and stepmother, as well as the many many others who left her so dearly. the rest i submit. >> thank you, supervisor. >> thank you, i submit. >> supervisor yee, mr. president. >> colleagues, for much of last year when i passed the ordinanc

i'd like to move we send this item to the full board with positive recommendations. can we take that without objection. >> great. mr. clerk, please call item number 4. >> clerk: agenda item number 4 ordinance and many of the administrative code to create office of division of the human rights decision department to create a city wide racial equity framework and assist the racial equity, analyze and racial equity and carry out various other policy and recording. to require city department to create racial equity action plan and updates of such plans and require city departments to designate employees as racial equity leaders and require the department of human resources to produce an annual report in the city workforce and mr. chair, this item has been requested to be a again diesed as a committee report for next tuesday the 23rd. >> thank you, supervisor brown, the floor is yours. >> thank you, i'm asking you to join me and move forward with the creation of the first ever office of racial equity. i want to thank supervisor fewer, her staff and my staff and especially

i co-chair the board, and i hold a consumer seat. and just to give, i gues guess -- i guess to underline one of the reasons we're requesting the change is historically there has been a divide between mental health and substance abuse disorder services, leaving consumers -- basically leaving consumers no choice but to choose between co-occurring disorders. if they go for treatment for one, they're often excluded from one or more programs based on having substance abuse for one or mental health issues for the other. again, with behavioral health being more inclusive in addressing both, mental health and substance abuse disorders, the name change would align us not only with other california counties that have transitioned in this manner, but it also helps us when we're -- with programs that are seeking funding. oftentimes there is that same divide between mental health and substance use. and when we have these integratitintegrative services,t pushes them to gain funding for those sources. [buzzer] >> chairwoman: thank you so much. >> go

the board's jurisdiction. we ask you refrain from using employee or student names. if you have a complaint about additional employees, you may submit to the employee his supervisor in accordance with district policy. as a reminder, board rules and california law do not allow us to respond to comments or answer questions during the public comment time. if appropriate, the superintendent will ask staff to follow up with speakers. i have two names here for public comment. when you hear your name called, make your way to the podium. you will have two minutes. [calling names] you have two minutes whenever you are ready. >> hello, my name is jeremy lee, i am 16. i pull evolved. i'm here to request funding to purchase new poles for the team. there are 20 of us across three schools and we all go to lincoln high school. currently several of our top vaulters perform extremely well outside the city and have already broken or close to breaking the city records. to progress further, they would require bigger and longer pole

what is asked from the board limitations, a hold, isn't heard of. it violates my client's rights to his property to work on it. the ellis complaint hasn't been filed. it would delay this until we don't know when at great cost to my client. other issues the commissioner referred to, it is unlikely you have the authority to do so, but we on our own have proposed alternatives, limiting the schedule, and complying with extra measures, putting security cameras in. mr. castro was seen removing pas tick sheeting from the doors where construction is taking place. the lock box has been altered because new holders for the lock box were modified and screwed into the wall. no one would do that to vandalize. the point is he wants to keep his low-cost property. i understand that. but that is not what's happening here. this is not about ellis or not about those impact on housing, as is expressed in their papers. it is about this permit and the conduct of this contractor and this owner. we are complying with the law and have the right to proceed and it's already bee

it's not as though we can't get anyone to carry this over at the board. so i think at this point this's definitely still a lot that can be done there. that's why also i haven't looked at the ballot option. >> i think you raised a good point about having it be implemented territory november 2020 election. i think six of the 11 supervisors are up for re-election. >> that's correct. >> all the odd-numbered districts. so if they would -- they could benefit from participating in the program about higher amounts and different thresholds. maybe that would help speed up the process. >> absolutely. there are a lot of benefits to incumbents and challengers of this new regime. it would reduce their feed to fu fundraise and spend their time doing that. >> so at the next month's meeting if you could report back on whether or not it's been heard at committee, that would be great. we are here to do everything we can to assist to make sure that we can get the wheels of government to turn. >> i will let you know. it may be helpful at some point to have you as chair be acti
