updike? okay. seeing none, we have a budget analyst report, mr. rose? >> mr. chairman, members of the committee, on page 29 of our report, we report that as shown in table 4, the total estimated lease and related costs for the nibble five-year term of the lease would be $4,6 30,0 06 which would all be general fund v tours subject to appropriation approval by the board of supervisors. ~ the law library's rent utilities costs are 5 77,3 72 and 13-14 of the proposed lease are $386,94 1 or approximately 203% more than the 13 occupancy fee paid by the law library to the war memorial of [speaker not understood]. on page 30 of our report we note that the 20,000 square footage is an increase of approximately 7,000 [speaker not understood] net square feet of 56% more than the law library's existing space of 12,8 16 square feet. and, mr. chairman, with respect to your increase, our report states based on information provided that the law library outlined several conditions, including that the city comp

updike? >> yes, supervisor breed, the mandate here is actually found in both the city's charter as well as in the state law. this is the first county library in the state of california. so, we have an underlying 18 70 statute which drives this mandate ~ and then that's further, really, copied in the charter language. >> and can i get clarity as to why it's not included in the resolution or did i miss that part? >> that's a very good point. the reference is made to the buyer resolution adopted in april on this matter which included a fairly robust outline of the legal mandates. so, we felt rather than just repeating that, we have made a reference in the resolution reciting what we discussed on the prior adopted resolution, further ratify any actions taken there. >> as it relates to both the city charter as well as state law? >> that is correct. >> okay. and then in that particular -- because i haven't been able to reference it, that doesn't necessarily specify the footage or anything like that

updike. colleagues, any questions right now? okay, thanks. why don't we go to our budget analyst report. >> mr. chairman, members of the committee, on page 37 of our report as shown in table 3, the total first year cost hss under the proposed new lease are $643,263. and on that same page the report that is shown on table 2 on page 36 of our report, the proposed lease rentals results in a total square footage increase of 5,98 4 square feet or 44% compared to the current lease. ~ now, approximately 4,00 5 square feet are to be used as a wellness center. the controller's office will begin a strategic planning effort in the summer of 2013 with a possible strategic plan to be completed in the fall of 2013 and also as mr. updike just indicated, hss is requesting new positions in the mayor's proposed fiscal 13-14 budget for implementation of the wellness center. so, our conclusion is that the controller has not yet begun the strategic planning process for the proposed city-wide wellness program and the board of supervisors has not yet approved the h

john updike, director real estate. so, previously the board approved a 20,000 square foot lease at 1200 van ness for this item or to negotiate other suitable space if that did not come to fruition. obviously it did not or i would not be in front of you today. at that time we detailed the state law and charter provisions that guide our actions in this matter so i'm not going to reiterate all of those. i think those are all on record. and in the budget analyst report. since the board approval in april, the city was successful in its argument to the court as to the suitable and unsufficient size of our law library. when we learned that ownership of 1200 van ness had decided to sign a lease with a tenant who offered frankly a better deal with conditions that the city was not able to compete with, we began a search for an interim location. concurrently, war memorial veterans building development staff modified their construction project. so as to maintain their july 1 start date. ~ but also permit the law library to remain

alright, john updike for real estate wants to weigh in, give him two minutes, just kidding. >> good morning supervisor. to expand the supervisor campos's question, we are in the search for several months and looking at several major facility needs for the city and is part of that analysis and outreach of the brokerage committee i'm hoping we will also find some other opportunities beyond what susanna mentioned that could suffice for a longer-term solution. because we have things such as our elections need which is a very large need; central shops need, these are in the order of 50-100,000 square foot requirement so we are out there in the marketplace and we continue the dialogue and hopefully something might come out of it. perhaps it will work for the project we might work for this. >> supervisor cohen: -- there is a whole industrial area that might be helpful, you have trade shops out that way large enough to possibly accommodate. alright thank you. seeing that there is no more public comment on this item, this item is closed. (gavel) is there a motion? motion to the full board without ob

updike, welcome back to our budget committee, thanks for being here. >> thank you, chair farrell. john up dike. >> this is a lease for the department of environmental health action at fox plaza. and it is an expansion as well as a give back of some premises which is a net increase in space, but a fairly modest one taking us from.25,937 to 27,726 this is to accommodate the growth in the weights and measures areas that have occurred over the years. the suites to be leased are on the second, fourth, and 8th and ninth floors as well as storage spaces. the lease rate as negotiated here before you is just under 36 dollars per square foot per year, it is fixed for the five year term. so we find this to be advantageous rate for the city and locked in until november 30th of 2018. the lease also contains one five-year option for renewal, which could take us out to 2023, that is subject to negotiations at 95 percent of the fair market rent and that needs to return to the board of supervisors for approval. and so the only issue now is the five-year lease. as noted in the budget analyst report

updike, maybe in the future we can include that resolve clause in every single thing we bring forward. yes, we don't have to talk about it at committee. can we do this without opposition? thanks, so moved. and the underlying item as amended can we take that without opposition? so moved. [gavel] >> thank you very much. mr. clerk, can you please call item number 7? >> item number 7, hearing to consider the budget and legislative analyst's report on the socioeconomic equity in the city and county of san francisco, and how the report may be used to guide the city's budget decision-making process. >> okay, thank you. this was sponsored by supervisor avalos, so, i will turn it over to him. >> great, thank you, chair farrell. and thank you, colleagues, for scheduling and being here for this hearing. this is a hearing on a report that i had asked for of the budget and legislative analyst office. and fred russo has been the lead in the budget office on the report. i want to thank him for his service. ~ budget analyst's office. this report was to provide a framework so we can look at our decisi
