the program is the only program in the entire city that serves children who are unable to talk. my child with a help of a device is able to talk. i'm extremely and all the apparent we are extremely upset that we received the letter 3 days. the school district sent us a letter saying we have 3 days to pick another school. our child are extremely disabled. there are programs where children are the ones that they can't communicate. we are the voices of the children. please, i invite everyone of you to come and visit our school. our kids have made a huge progress. don't listen to me, visit our school. i invite everyone of you to see what the i talk is all about. there is no other program in the city that serves children who are severely disabled as all the kids in room 108 and 109. i'm asking you to save the program for the kids that are currently enrolled in the i talk for new generations for the ones that are going to be born disabled and currently disabled. please save the i talk program. >> excuse me your name? >> my name is lillian mokda. >> okay, so you are not on the list? >>

the next program? nd how do we deal with, again, -- stays ys, as it is as it is, how do we deal with bulk reporting on the next program and the next program and the next program? >> what about the program that exists? >> the program that exists -- >> americans know about this program. and we still haven't really given them -- "washington post" will put it on an article. why can't the government tell us the number of telephones -- telephone numbers that are having their data collected, and queried?many are being that would give people some idea of the scope of this program and what it is doing. and i think americans deserve to have that information in order to decide for them selves -- i think it would be very helpful. listen, i agree with both the airman and mr. medine on the intelligence people. i believe that they are doing the best job they can. but we have oversight, and part of the oversight to me is what you talk about, how important transparency is. and i'm very confused about what you write in y

, the bulk collection program was authorized, the courts have still not carefully and thoroughly worked through the issues that surround the program. in our american legal system we expect there will be such analysis such legal issues before the executive branch acts and here there currently was none. even the two members of your board, who descended from the legal analysis, acknowledged that the board has raised significant legal issues, which could divide reasonable people, reasonable lawyers. the american people essentially deserve better, and that's one of the reasons that we're here today. they deserve better than to have the executive branch engaging in conduct that even its defenders say might be illegal. the second major achievement of this report is that it sheds light on the history of the bulk telephony metadata program. we learned from your report that the judge asked the phone records on potentially every american without so much of writing a written opinion, which is incredible. absolutely shocking.

walk you through the various programs you can see we've reached my accomplishments in the water state of them primarily getting 94 percent completion it's for reaching our redundancy within our overlook program. the objectives are cal versus dam you know we've had our challenges we're monitoring that project we know it's interrogating challenges to our program but it's american people importantly project and we're paying full attention to that promise under the sewer assistant program we have the contract theiric and on schedule. we've completed the program validation phase early e earlier this fiscal year as well as finalizing the phase one scheduling and budget and working to advance the early completion program that is the green program. our objectives from the ssi p are bio solids those are the biggest projects and their long-term projects that will take 9 to 10 years so we're focusing on those schedules on on the hetch hetchy improvement program it's a smaller program but we're certainly paying attention to that. the champs will hetch hetchy it's all the work up country. it gives

the next program? nd how do we deal with, again, -- stays ys, as it is as it is, how do we deal with bulk reporting on the next program and the next program and the next program? >> what about the program that exists? >> the program that exists -- >> americans know about this program. and we still haven't really given them -- "washington post" will put it on an article. why can't the government tell us the number of telephones -- telephone numbers that are having their data collected, and queried?many are being that would give people some idea of the scope of this program and what it is doing. and i think americans deserve to have that information in order to decide for them selves -- i think it would be very helpful. listen, i agree with both the airman and mr. medine on the intelligence people. i believe that they are doing the best job they can. but we have oversight, and part of the oversight to me is what you talk about, how important transparency is. and i'm very confused about what you write in y

the program is not comprehensive. you mentioned the peace of mind argument, which the government turned to after several months of trying to argue the program have been directly effective. how, they argue indirect benefit of ease of mind. if you had an alarm system on your home and it only operated on wednesdays and fridays, would you consider that a useful thing to have? would you pay money for that, and would you keep it if it cost you other problems, like major lights flash? -- like made your lights flash? >> that information remains classified, but the government has asserted the program is valuable and effective. our conclusion, our majority, is that it is not enough to justify the program as it is. >> in a sense, you got lucky. the existence of this program was leaked by a document edward snowden shared with "the guardian." , andhat program not leaked the government subsequently declassified it, how would you have handled the reporting of this program? >> our board has the highest level security clearances. we ha

the reporting of this program? >> our board has the highest level security clearances. we have access to virtually every government program that relates to counterterrorism, which is our mission. in some cases, going forward, there may be programs that remain highly classified, where we do a report that only goes to the president and congress. if there is a version we can make public, we will. that was our goal in this report, which ended up being entirely unclassified. there is a program which still remains largely classified. we will try to speak to the american public as much as we can about the constraints and what can be done about it. >> can you do that now? tell us a little bit about 702, for those who do not know. >> the 702 program, which is sometimes misnamed prism, it is focused on contents. metadata, we did not know who was calling or what they were saying. 702 is what is being sent on the phone calls or the contents of the e-mails. that program is focused on non-u.s. persons, and those outside of the un

without these programs, the levels will be much higher. , these programs have though: the short term of reducing food insecurity. -- these programs have the goal through the short term of reducing food insecurity. they have long-term benefits, children who have access to the program early in life have better outcomes as adults. looking at obesity, heart disease, high blood pressure. we have the benefit in the short run and the long run. in the long run for women, greater self-sufficiency. earnings, income, less reliance on public assistance. the programs are working, they could be expanded to improve outcomes. host: do you see evidence that food banks and private charities put a dent in food insecurity and hunger? guest: families supplement government programs with private programs. and other particularly during the great recession, there were lots of families that were using food banks and other nonprofit services. that ai might expand on little, households -- the two types of programs tend to complement each other. the private programs, f

the other part is education. our approach is mutual aid. this program and the 1r08 volunteer community members and we decrease fossil fuels and the next is infrastructure. the next step is -- >> [inaudible] >> thank you. next speaker. >> thank you. my name is sharon brown. i am with power and i just want to thank you for this and i want to thank you and thank you for cosponsoring today supervisor chiu. we came from this issue from them and we learned about the program and similarly our members in the mission and bay view had the same fundamental issue of both transit access but also the issues of health and the environment that connect to that, so we think this program really is essential and a model for other cities because we're taking something unused and putting in the hands of communities that need it so people can access the benefit to the city and deal with the health disparities and the environmental problems as well so thank you for your support and we look forward to this being passed and working with it in the future. >> next speaker. >> good

is that of the program? >> page 46. >> sorry. >> i believe that is the total is on page 47. >> okay. >> got it. >> great. >> any other questions, commissioner yee? >> no. >> commissioner mar? >> yes, i just wanted to thank miss cheng also for and the staff for following through with creating a much better relations with the mta and really much better communications and coordination, and i think that it shows, in a lot of the different projects that have been coming through the plans and programs and i also wantsed to say that as you mentioned the cac and the community based people that volunteer their time with many of the committees and the community meetings, and i wanted to say that cres ter fung is doing a great job with doing his best at getting the information out and that is not spread very evenly and i know that with the on-line tools that the ta is doing, and one of your slides that i think did not get shown was a lot of the improvements with the website that is helping, many of the people that are c

this includes an amendment to the police code supporting the broad plaza program we want to take time to talk about the amendments. the legislature passage includes a new charter an administrative code charter 54 that accomplishes the companion amendment. the police amendment is identified in the administration code charter 54 as a limited life performance and established anytime requirements. my colleague will make a short presentation about the program and we're available for questions. i want to relocate ben he's here also to answer any queries i'm going to turn it over to robin >> good evening, commissioners. a little shorter i'm going to move this down. we want to start out saying the effort is a collaborative effort and i want to recognize we've been working with the division of real estate. thanks. as well as depending on this project we'll continue to work on this collaboratively with the working group that has members represented in the go up you see here. so moving to tell you a little bit more about the background. so san francisco has become known nationally for the innova

we have the program all put together. one thing this rfp does not do is it does not, it acknowledges the shell contract. so that is one thing that we would want direction on. if you do not want a consultant to assume the shell contract exist and to think of other things. that is not in this rfp. it assumes the program is designed and voted on and then it assumes the local build out and asks for a creative and imaginative praj -- program with specificity. i'm available for questions. >>supervisor john avalos: thank you, commissioner breed. >>supervisor london breed: thank you, miss miller for putting this together so quickly. i do of course want there to be a little bit more time for input and i'm sure you got feedback that there are some other organizations that want to take the time to review it and provide input. i would like to make sure that we have the time to do that before we finalize the rfp and i wanted to get a sense of how my colleagues as well as how members of the public feel about how we move forward with she

once you hear about the summer bridge program. so we are going toef two cohorts at two sites at marshall and balboa with incoming ninth graders with with san francisco unified and contributors to support the sprout idea. and for more information feel free to give me a call and i will try to answer questions to the best of my ability. i would like to thank you for your support. i came from los angeles and i have to say my seven 1/2 months in san francisco has been absolutely amazing working with the board of education and their forward thinking and their willingness to invest in the students and future citizens of san francisco and the city and partnership that i have been in contact with has really eye opening what can be done when everybody comes to work with a level of commitment to the students. this you for that opportunity. >> thank you, mr. coffman and welcome to san francisco. i don't see any comments from committee members. i want to open to public comment and perhaps some comments in discussion and questions will come out

. >> hi, you are in the stream. a program designed to revolutionize how the kids in low income areas are taught. a hash tag is discussing where the group is living up to its mission. >> we have all of the live feedback throughout the show and resist resist hash tag has everyone under the sun engaged. >> yes, it is overwhelming us. tonight is a good problem "the stream." so much online engagement via all of the social media tools and i will try my best to honor it. and one tweeting in i hope tonight leads to a deeper conversation. i'm hundred percent hoping so too. the page has a huge debate going back and forth. i'm 2012, t, and hijacked by the big money donors and let me think, tfa or not. should be ashamed for using the poor kids. this is what tfa accomplished, decreased the teacher power and on the backs of the youths. >> we have a lot to talk about. this hash tag dominated twitter and poking the holes in one of the most prestige programs. they trained the young college grads as instructors and sent into the low income sch

which is 976 of the 243 were offtrack to graduate before the program. we completed 3821, 821 courses which is 97 percent of the 2012 attempted. >> you just through out a lot of numbers. i understood that. how many students i guess last summer they were rising seniors and rising injuries. -- juniors? how many were not on track to graduate? >> 72.7 percent of the students that completed courses in summer school were offtrack to graduate. >> okay. but my question is how many students were not on track to graduate? total in the whole district. i'm curious how many were enrolled in these programs? >> i don't think we have that data, but i think we can get that data to you. >> that would be great. so you had 2489 students enrolled and of those 2096 completed courses. we don't know how many students were not on track to enroll in these programs. >> the total number of students offtrack? >> yes. it would be helpful to know of the 2489 that enrolled, they were not on track. so you got every student that was not on track in the program or there were 5,000 not on t

some of the largest programs are still in active construction. we have projects in the design phase. we completed 52 projects in the last year. some of our achievements are that we did satisfy the pipeline upgrades. that's on the agenda items today that relate to that project. we've completed construction on seven of the projects including some of the major projects that help us to get kremently closer to the level of those service goals to provide water within 24 hours after a major seismic event in the bay area, including pipelines in the east bay and on the peninsula and we completed a major water treatment plant project for sonoma valley treatment plant and reservoir which increases the operational of our system. we also improved the bay tunnel which are the two most transition upgrade projects. the bay tunnel is the 5-mile tunnel underneath the bay. it is currently being groutd. the space between the pipe that carries the water and the tunnel itself. we expect it to go under service this fall and the tunnel that takes water from the sun ol va

this slide shows the overall program status and the water system improvement program both regional and local combined are about 84 percent complete, 93 1/2 percent local. our primary is local with 16 projects worth nearly $2.7 billion in construction actively. we completed construction on 62 of 82 projects . we only have a few projects left of the ground water restoring recovery and the pipeline which will be going in in the spring. we have a number of accomplishments to report this last quarter. as has been reported in the last quarter we passed the instruction of the program. you can clearly see in august 2012, we had a much higher rate of work hours than we do in december 13th. we do anticipate that rate to come back up in the spring and summer months this year as construction gets more active in the summer months, but we are clearly passed the peak of construction but we have a long ways to go. 20 percent of a lot of program is still a lot to complete. we did obtain certification of the environmental impact report. we have received 5 bids and awarded that contract to a ranger pipel

for housing and the certificate of programs. before we kind of into 3 i want to give the staff what they need as the mechanics of how that plays out and. let's start there. i want to open it up to the commissioners commissioner singh >> yeah. i want to know the preferences is it going to be time limited to close pretty soon. >> i want to pitting put that one on hold we started a little bit late. >> let me ask a question. okay >> okay. >> yeah. >> i don't have the exact information on the certificate of preferences program but we can get back to you on that question. >> it is going to be abolished. >> why. >> commissioners when the commission approved the latest changes in 2008, and 9 to the preferences program it made certain chances for people to qualify for tomorrow a and c and provided for a that he had period of time of certify for the certificates to be honored i believe it's 2016 but there's a built in extension by the commission that was the approval for the certificate of approval program there's an outside dates it's not

the program focuses on various aspects of life on james turner street. one of the protagonists is this woman a single mother of two or for cars. here are the so called mother of the street is shown in devising an illiterate neighbor how he can claim or benefits. yes i'm a current tv tomorrow another person featured on the program is dani. he began shoplifting when he was twelve years old. he's been caught two hundred times and has a deep convictions boasting about his call at the nearby shopping center he claims he's got a talent for stopping by security they were together. or when it was good. let's raise the heat. he and his the series depicts those in receipt of social welfare primarily as criminals and scrumptious. before the commercial break. viewers are invited to share their thoughts on twitter. some of the online responses have been particularly vicious the program has triggered a great deal of hate speech one user claimed that all residents of benefit st should be shot. another wants to see them eaten alive by peaks. residents of james turner str

we're working on the policy of the financial analysis of the pricing program. in addition we'll be initiating the system management phase focusing on the structural engineering of the compliment of the programs. this year's budget will establish the tide district attorney staff and accomplishing the agency as we expect to receive the funds in the coming months. 20 percent of the budget will going or go to the staff and the rest to the consultants to assist with the implementation. the tide district attorney board approved this item and cc confirmed this with a motion of support. we have $73,000 for this item in the current transportation thoortsz budget and will be amending this if it's approved through this committee. if you have any questions i have the title representative here >> looks like with an early start people don't have questions. thank you for your presentation. let's open this up for public comment seeing none, public comment is closed. okay motion made my supervisor tang and seconded by supervisor chiu the motion passes. thank you very much. okay

, the ball collection program was authorized. the courts had still not carefully and -- carefully were through the issues that surround the program. we expect that there will be such analysis before the .xecutive branch acts here, there apparently was none. even the two members of your board acknowledged that the board has raised significant -- l issues that could the american people deserve better. that is one of the reasons we are here today. they deserve better. engaging in conduct that the vendor say my the illegal. the second major achievement of this report is that it sheds oldt on the history of the telephone metadata program. we learned from your report that a judge authorized the collection of phone records are potentially every american without so much as issuing a written opinion. it is incredible, absolutely shocking. issued anudge howard order allowing the government to collect phone records of law-abiding americans with no known connection to any crime. telephone records on every american that was no

where we strengthen the program, we strengthen the farm program, improve it, more cost-effective and save $23 billion to reduce the deficit and the debt. how about we go through every other program in government and see how we make it better and reduce spending, because when we do that we'll have done what we're talking about here in the farm bill. seems like a good idea. i see the good senator here from montana, and the senator from south dakota as well as the esteemed senator from michigan. they'll tell you the same thing. here we are reforming a mandatory spending program and we're reducing the cost while strengthening the program. seems like what we ought to be doing. and i know some folks will come down and say it could be better because of this or we're wee should have done this or that and go back into the same old gridlock and i guess argue for having yet another extension on a farm bill that expired over a year ago and should sister been done a long time ago. but we provide a better program with savings, more than $23 billion to help reduce

we didn't hear too much about the cleanpowersf program. i was at the january 14th puc hearing and i strongly urge you to checkout the power enterprise budget information presented. a memo was available which i believe was the 14-15 two year planning cycle and indicated i think in one sentence that no work would be done on cleanpowersf by power enterprise. the focus seems to be on new high revenue customers and not on engagement. definitely a lot of information in those documents in terms of what the puc is thinking going forward and i don't think it do have dove tails what the lafco board is expecting. in-house scheduling is a comment that someone made earlier is something we heard the puc staff say they can do. and as mr. freed indicated that could actually not only not add to, but maybe even alleviate some of the funding issues that the puc is having. going to the rfp, we did as a group of advocates send a letter to the lafco staff and urged you to check that out and looking forward working on the lafco rfp going forward and assuming the

this is very similar to the asset and resource requirement for the ssi program. accountable income is counted a lot differently under traditional medi-cal. and also i want to make a note that the applications for traditional medi-cal have also increased since this year, since january. since a ca implementation. again, something else that amber has already mentioned. adults aging out of the expansion, going from 64-65, they are not automatically transitioned. we don't have enough information to do that because of those asset and resource requirements. they need to apply for medi-cal based on those traditional rules. and hsa is working in putting a process in place that would allow us to notify somebody 2-3 months in advance so they will know they are aging out and they can make the effort to get us the information we need so the transition can be seamless and hopefully automatic to some degree. again, there is specific considerations that an individual has to make potential tax implications from one rule to the other because there's no property tax under the expans

one of the components of the program as ken mentioned we're drafting a framework for the discussions. i will talk about that but we looked at what is the existing city policy say about public land so we created a draft framework and we wanted to give you a sense of what we're talking about when wear saying principles in a framework. we want to got up a comprehensive benefit that can be provided collectively so what does that mean in terms of the those programs. we have a set of strategies and tools so once we have the memo of the tools we'll apply all this on specific sites and do some site planning and develop some rfps and start the development of the specific sites. what might be the benefit of the coordination. currently some of the sites are located where the development is difficult. also, if you go on a site by site approach sometimes the community focuses on no pain revenue resources like open space. so we have open documents and policy to see where the highest need is for open space and can we spread those no revenue across the sites and combine them that support other servic

, the cca program for the rate approval was that there was some confusion or not enough clarity on the local build out program and commissioner breed had requested at the last meeting that we spend some time, spend some resources to take a look at that and specify a plan and provide a more cohesive plan as to what the local energy build out would be. the draft talks about, there has been a number of reports. we don't want to reinvent the wheel. so what the draft does is mention the reports that have been done and acknowledge there is a bit of a difference between some of the reports. we have a program that is throwing off approximately $6 million a year. and we have reports by a local power that is more like $100 million a year in terms of expenses. we are trying to craft a program that is manageable, affordable and reachable within the context of our goals. the a draft at this point because we needed some feedback. we want to make sure that we have the principals correct and that we are doing what you would like us to do. i would like sfpuc staff to comment and assist with this. i kno

the one problem, every great program has a group of people left out. the funding we get is for people who are in medicare a or b. the people with medi-cal, medicare are legible. at this point cms isn't funding medi-cal only. it is for people who are medicare a and b and who aren't through managed hmo. what it provides is when people go to a hospital a lot of times people get rehospitalized because they don't understand their medication and plan and they don't have the transportation, ihh s, you make the it. there is a lot of things that can be put in place to prevent rehospitalization. it's a great program and we've started doing in takes since april. although this program has been in existence for a number of years, but because of the expansion of it because of cms funding we have been able to extend our program. something that we are starting to do this month on going which is a really big deal in my world is we are piloting rather than doing the in takes in house at dos, we are slowly rolling out our intake services for hospitals directly. the reason
