this will be the first year that you will be implementing the feeder program. i am anxious to hear what that process is like. >> thank you. are there any other comments? >> good afternoon, commissioners. i am the executive director of the education center and i am here to give you a very high level overview of our new process as well as talk about some of our outreach efforts and also where the school district now in its development of the student assignment policy. what i'm going to do is walk you through a power point. there are materials i have provided for you and it does include a copy of that power point. i think we can go through this quickly. parts of this are used when we go out to the public. we use this to walk the public through the process and explain what the process is and what they need to do and how they can engage in this process. i'm going to go through this very quickly. please feel free to interrupt or ask questions as i am moving along. in march of 2010, the board approved a new system replacing students -- for placing students that will b

they will lead the intervention. they will not override supervision. this is the person that will have the responsibility for the immediate crisis. we expect them to use their discretion turn to one of the nice things we found is a dramatic impact on the arrest rates. nationally, if you look at the data, this is about 20%. this really begins to change the nature of the flow of individuals. there is a lot of resources available. programs are not charged, this is a duty that people want to offer. this includes other agencies as well. -- provides for us around the country. many experts will provide the training for free. there are programs all over, we have them in miami, etc.. we have a -- population like you have here. we have a very large call volume in memphis. these calls which involve individuals were thought to be at high risk and the need for additional help and support and are an additional crisis. we have transportation which has those who are brought for evaluation which runs at about 4500 a year. there is a need to transport people to emergenc

there will be other problems that will come up. i think the military is in a good position to provide stockpiles that are available to take care of these shortages. at least for a time. that will play to their strength. it will also play, however, to the strength of the muslim brotherhood to has a structure capable of providing resources to the poorest people. the estimates of the brotherhood's and packed under the worst possible terms probably run around 40% of the boat. -- 40% of the vote. that seems to be exaggerated. the figures i have heard or about 20%. it all depends on how this thing comes out in the end. mind you, egypt is a very religious society. it is not a theocracy in any sense of the word. it is not inclined towards theocracy. but egyptians are pious. i reset pupil of egyptians -- a recent poll of egyptians highlighted the fact that 85% of the population has a positive view of is long's influence on politics. only 22% had 8-8 v. -- only 2% had a negative view. they want as long engaged in the policy. however, 61% of

we will hear first wemeghe -- we will hear first from mehgen, and carolyn, then bill, and then we will talk about the save our judiciary. >> let me thank you for by inviting me to be here. this is one of the more important topics. a lot of us have been watching what has been unfolding in the middle east and in egypt and this morning in jordan, it reminds me when i left for iran, and exactly what was going on back then. not really appreciating get back then, i really think that in my experience, having had the opportunity and the honor to work with in all three branches of government, i think that what we have in america, as far as the judicial branch, an independent judicial branch, is in my view probably the most significant element of a true functioning democracy. people can take their grievances to the courts and be comfortable that they will most likely -- regardless of what the outcome is, happy or unhappy at the time -- we respect that, whether that is on an issue of health care, of intellectual property, whether it is an issue on the election of united states president, we do no

i will mention a few facts here. maybe we will go into more detail. as you can see, the redevelopment agency is 5% of the total net after they pass through the increments they are initially allocated. they were eligible -- the maximum tax increment was about $53 million more than that. we are an unusual jurisdiction in san francisco. we have just one city and county and redevelopment agency at this point. the county retains the budget approval authority over the tax increment funding, which allowed a decision by the county not to allocate the entire maximum tax increment. $53 million was not allocated through the budget process. it does appear likely, depending on what happens with this discussion about redevelopment, the way things are trending, tax increment financing requirements are likely to grow, as we anticipate there will be new activity and bonding relating to hunters point, treasure island. it will be further discussed on the financing district. those are some of the general facts. now i will turn into amy for more detail. >> thank you. supe

i will never do that again. thanking mayor newsom and the 11 members of the board of supervisors that voted unanimously to support this event in san francisco. the mayor has been steadfast. i would like to thank the mayor for his work in making sure that this event was held in this city. [applause] he worked diligently, creatively, tirelessly in making sure that we felt welcomed, that we had a place on the waterfront where we could do the engineering and building the sailing village in time for the event in 2013. and then he rallied all of the other force is necessary throughout the city to support this. it is an unprecedented 11 to 0 vote in the board of supervisors. [applause] the mayor mentioned some of the many people that worked over their holidays to get this agreement signed. now the work has just begun. there's a lot of engineering to do. there's a loss of construction to do. in 2013, i believe we will have more than 14 teams. we have 16 teams here representing more than a dozen countries from around the

word will get back to unhook.ouple of questions of like them to answer. the city funding. i like that there is an attempt to said that the cost will shift to the school district, but realistically, when will proposition 98 be fully restored? really, the city is going to be covering the costs in perpetuity. i don't know if the state will fully reimburse. i wish they would, but i don't see that happening. i would like to hear from the school district whether or not they would be able to take on the entire funding. i would like to know from mr. kelly if he is a tale of the city paying for this. i bet he is. what about the school district paying for it? right now, we have -- there is the state legislation on the ballot and presumably two items. one item is moving through the ethics commission and might not need to be on the ballot. in which case, we would have the state legislation and this item. i have a question for the department of elections. does that mean the city will have to bear the cost of a citywide electio

now we will have a debate. we will have this discussion. i think we will get to a fix. it will not be the perfect fix that i want. that is what comes with divided government. but i started the conversation and i took the risk to put my out there first. in the beginning, the democrats and the legislature to the same thing as down here appeared less see if he gets burned at the state first before we go in. all of a sudden, for five of us later, approval ratings going up, they think, let'this looks e a good idea. you just have to have the spine to say that i'm good to take the risk. but that is what you elect leaders for -- hence the name. [laughter] if you are waiting midway back in the pack and call yourself a leader, it seems to me that that is not consistent. if you want to be a leader, lead. it does involve some measure of risk. everything does that is worth something. but what did you get sent to this before? really. what did we come to do this for? just to collect a title? before i got this job, i had plenty of titles. i do not need new titles. i came here to achiev
