Affordable housing in the mission for generations to come. [applause] now we all know the sad history of rewoment in our city. The community that i grew up in the Western Addition and what happened to that community. A lot of propsses were made. A lot of housing was built. But when the time came, for example, in the Public Housing that i grew up in, 300 units torn down, 200 units built and the difficulty of so many of us being able to move back to the community. You remember this joyce armstrong, what happened in the Western Addition and how it really sadly destroyed a very vibrant African American community. And we look at this as a Lesson Learned and we have to think of the challenges that existed back then and what we have to do to change that for the future of San Francisco. And we are going to protect our diversity and our communities. We have to start making the right kinds of investments. Its why, when i was on the board of supervisors with this community, Roberto Hernandez was there and we stood proud to fight for and josh arsay, we stood proud to fight for neighborhood preference so that when we actually build the Affordable Housing in these communities, that the people who live in these communities have right of first refusal to access those units. [applause] and also when we have revenue this this city that we make the right kinds of investments that will make a tremendous impact for a community. I got to take a tour. In fact, it was a lowrider tour with roberto. Yes, it was a nice day and the sun was shining and yes, we were bouncing up and down in the mission and people thought i was having a good time and i wasnt there working. I was working. I was working. I was on a Factfinding Mission to really see what opportunities exist in this community so that we can build more Affordable Housing. And so we were standing out here on 26th street talking to a number of folks who grew up here, some who dont live here anymore because they cant afford to. And others who were just trying to hold on and they talked about housing and their children and their future. Im really excited because government sometimes takes a really long time to make things happen. And we were really lucky that we got this windfall money that you heard about. And the first thing i thought about were all these sites in the commission and whether or not we would be able to acquire these sites for 100 Affordable Housing. And today thats what this announcement is about. 1515 south van ness will be acquired to potentially build 150 new family units sglfp [applause] and i have to tell you it wasnt necessarily fast for this community because this community had been working so hard to really identify locations, coordinate and Work Together and really address what we know has been significant dig placement. With the accusation of the site along with the four sites that we broke ground with, for Affordable Housing, with more to come, in the mission neighborhood, we would have preserved and built over 1,000 new units for this community. Now we know this community has a goal of getting to 2500 and i definitely want to make sure that we get there. But i will say that this is a step in the right direction. And i just also would like to put in a plug for the housing bonds. 600 million without raising property taxes for Affordable Housing. Woe have the money to buy the site, but we need the money to build it. So im going to be counting on the voters in San Francisco to support the upcoming housing bond so that we can get this housing built for this community right away. And more Affordable Housing throughout the city of San Francisco. [applause] so i want to thank all of you and so many of the Community Members that have joined us today. It just really is not only a Beautiful Day in San Francisco, but an exciting time for this community. Ive been to four ground breakings in the mission since ive been mayorment we look at other sites and we have been acquiring property. Weve been looking at ways on small sites and making tremendous investments. And this is really just the beginning of what i think is going to be an incredible future for this community. But it wont be that way unless we work hard for it because we have to also make sure that the investments happen, we have to make sure that the resources are there to make this investment happen and well continue to do everything we can to make sure that the community is a part of this process every step of the way. Before i thank all the folks that are responsible for this, besides, i just want to give a special shoutout to kate hartley from the Mayors Department of housing for all the really hard work that she did to make this possible [applause] along with a number of city departments to help and jumpstart s. F. And the m. T. C. Or m. T. A. , which one is it . M. T. C. We have somebody from one of those transportation agencies. So, thank you so much for that and thank you to all the Community Members and everyone whos with us today. And to acknowledge so many incredible people from this community. Including herself who myrna milgaard has been an incredible resource and incredible advocate. [applause] and just working with young people and staying focused. Not only is she the president of the Planning Commission of San Francisco, she runs Jamestown Community center, an incredible space for young people in this community. Myrna melgar. Thank you, mayor. So i was appointed to the Planning Commission by then president of the board of supervisors, london breed. [laughter] and people ask me why why are you doing this . [laughter] so muchwork it is a lot of work. But im doing it because i, in addition to running the Jamestown Community center, im a mother of three girls who were born and raised in San Francisco. And i want them to have a life in San Francisco. I want my family close by and my community all around me. Its what makes my life worth living. Like many of you. And i think there is no more important thing that were doing right now than building Affordable Housing. And when then president of the board of supervisors breed asked me to do this, i was on it because i believed in her vision. So when i saw that she went to h. U. D. To advocate for neighborhood preference despite decades of people saying no, it cant be done, people in Affordable Housing saying it cant be done, she took her advocacy and got it done. And i was so proud of her. You know . Because that was a game changer for us in San Francisco. And, you know, i think that the advocacy, that community and this Mayors Office is doing in terms of building Affordable Housing, of just thinking outside the box with small sites, with different ways of getting to where we need to go is amazing and groundbreaking and im so proud to be part of this. So i think that for the first time im looking around at all of my colleagues in nonprofit and all of the community, instigators and collaborators and this is the moment that i feel like in the whole time ive been in San Francisco where the subMission United. [applause] the first time. Were all on the same page that we are building Affordable Housing. Not only preserving our community, but getting it back. Those 8,000 families that have been displaced from San Francisco that are part of our schools, of our churches, of our community organizations, were getting them back. And were all working really hard for it and this project is going to be a part of that story. We also have a supervisor who is on the same page with us. She has made Affordable Housing her priority. When she ran and also during her office and i am so glad that she is working with us hand in hand. And with that, im going to introduce supervisor hillary ronan. [applause] thank you so much. What an incredible, incredible day. I dont think there is anything that energizes all of us more than breaking ground on an Affordable Housing site or acquiring an Affordable Housing site. There is nothing that manges us feel like the work that we do in the city so important. When i was running for office, i made a goal and a pledge to build 5,000 units of Affordable Housing in district nine in a decade and im counting each and every unit and right now we are at 1182 units [applause] and that is because the mission is united. And not only is the Mission United with itself, the mission is united with city hall, with our mayor whose priority is housing and Affordable Housing for this neighborhood, with the supervisor whose priority is housing and Affordable Housing for this neighborhood, with the director of the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development whose priority is housing and Affordable Housing. Were truly, truly united and we have two extremely strong organizations. Affordable Housing Developers right here in the mission district. Mission housing and Economic Economic development agency. [applause] anja emphasize how important these organizations are. The executive director of one of those organizations because there was a decade, a decade when we didnt build a unit of Affordable Housing in this neighborhood. And part of that reason was because we didnt have Affordable Housing developer organizations who were at a stage that they could build housing. Now we dont even have one. We have two. We have two and we have a community that is not going to stop for a second fighting for more Affordable Housing. And i just before i hand it over to Roberto Hernandez, i wanted tos also thank the former supervisor of district nine, david campos. Because part of the funding to acquire the site, 5 million, was the First Time Ever david campos got that money from the m. T. C. Its a regional transportation body that i now sit on that has never financed Affordable Housing in its entire existence. But david made the point that you cant talk about transportation and jobs without talking about housing. You cant talk about housing without talking about transportation and jobs. He married those two and this is the first Pilot Project for the m. T. O. That they are investing regional dollars in Affordable Housing. So, that is a major milestone as well. So thank you, david campos, for your hard work. And now i wanted to introduce Roberto Hernandez who has been on the frontlines of this fight from day one. Roberto hernandez. [applause] buenos dias [speaking in spanish] come on. Let me hear you say it [speaking in spanish] [crowd repeats] a very wise, elderly man taught me at a young age that we write our own stories. Every day when we get up, it is a page thats written and we have we can decide how that story is written every day. And then we write chapters and, by the end of our lifetime, theres a book written about us. That we write. Were the writers. Because were the creators of our own story. But i take it to another level and say we as a community here in the mission have been writing not one book, but many, many books because this story doesnt end here. Its a story that began back many, many years that actually started Mission Housing development corporation. It was a story that started off by a group of us who banned together called the Mission Coalition organization. The m. C. O. And aim glad to see that my compadre, my brother santiago reese is here because he was part of that. And Michael Nolan and Pete Gallegos and many others here in this space today. And speaking about my compadre, happy birthday, Feliz Cumpleanos because today is your birthday. This is your gift, my brother. This is your goift. This is your gift. Theres Senior Housing that is being built right down the street and i know youre getting ready to retire. If you need a spot, there are applications given out. You can apply with them. You have it, brother . All right. We have a little spot. You want the top . Penthouse . Ok. All right. All right. Then i want to be on top. [laughter] all kidding aside, our mission no eviction was created by jose carasco and myself because we picked up after the dotcom boom. We recognized when we started getting people calling us up and saying hey, am i getting evicted . And within a period of 90 days, 56 people we knew were getting evicted. You know . And so we formed our mission which iss a what did you call it . Instigators . We are revolutionaries, you know . Really. Thats what we are. Were not funded by anybody. Were not incorporated. We dont have bylaws. We dont have a structure. Were just a group of people that band together and have been fighting. It is a beautiful end of the story, right . [applause] we didnt need no more luxury units. We needed 100 Affordable Housing, you know . And we tried working with them. We told them build 100 Affordable Housing. They say it doesnt pencil out. Oh, really . I guess you wont make that much money, right . Then we said build 100 Affordable Housing for teachers. Because teachers need housing and they make a decent salary so they can pay a little more than somebody whos a dishwasher, right . Is and they said it doesnt pencil out, right . And then we said just give us the land back. Just donate the land back to the community because youre a major corporation. Everybody knows lennar, right . Theyre a major corporation. And this is like to me like a little cucharacha, you know . Its so small compared to all the big projects that they do. But at the end of the day, we lost and the Planning Commission approved it. The board of supervisors approved it. We appealed and appealed and after appeal after appeal and i want to thank scott weaver who is an attorney who volunteers his time for us and has done so much work. [applause] for free. Pro bono basis. You know . And like him, there is so many other attorneys and so many other people who volunteer their time to give. And so this story ends like right here. And i want to thank mayor london breed from my corazon for going on that cruise with us. [applause] you know . And youre right. You dont know how many hits i got on facebook and twitter and everybody was blowing me up. Oh, you were cruising with the mayor . Think that we were having fun. Ive been telling the story working yeah, we were working and in fact there is a picture somebody gathered of me driving and showing her. Sorry i shouldnt have been doing this. But im showing and explaining to her and it was like magic. You know . For her to go and get this done with kate thank you, kate. Thank you very much. [applause] for doing all the work that you did. But for getting this done. You know . Because this gives a lot us a major victory, more different than the other ones that weve gotten. But this one i believe in my corazon it will make a difference and give people hope and understanding that the times have changed. We have a mayor who loves and cares for the mission district. Thank you very much. [applause] thank you i will say im just really excited to see my portrayal hill folks out here. [applause] supporting the mission. Thank you all so much for coming out. Thank you to our artist community. Thank you, deborah and tammy. Tammy from the fillmore. Thank you, sam moss and all the people who are here and the work that you do to make San Francisco a better place. And i just want to end it by saying that we have to be aggressive when it comes to getting more housing in this city. And, yes, the housing bond is significant. Its the largest housing bond ever introduced in this citys history and it doesnt raise property taxes, but we have to fight to get that bond passed. Let me also say there two other measures that im proposing and im asking all of you to contact your supervisors for my proposed Charter Amendment. That Charter Amendment will make it possible so that all 100 affordable and teacher housing can be built as a right. So when meta and Mission Housing, when theyre trying to go through this process to build housing and they have sadly sometimes people who are trying to stop it and theyre not asking for anything other than whats already required by the code, they need to get it built and get it built faster. [applause] and there are people who dont want us to do that. They say they want Affordable Housing now, but im proposing policies that will get that Affordable Housing delivered now. So contact wherever you live, contact your members of the board of supervisors and express how important it is to pass this Charter Amendment out of the board so that we have no more delays around Affordable Housing. [applause] our future is depending on it. I dont want what happened to so many of us who actually grew up in this city, born and raised, and then we turned around and we looked and we were wondering wheres our community . They couldnt afford to live here because we have not built enough Affordable Housing. Yes, Everyone Wants Affordable Housing. Yes, Everyone Wants to make sure that San Francisco remains diverse. But its going to take work to make it happen. It will take work. It will take changes to policy. It will take bold and brave leadership. So im asking for your support to get this done. The other thing im proposing is an ordinance, which i dont have to go through the board of supervisors, thank goodness. Because the property is not zoned for housing. But the Community Wants teacher housing. I want teacher housing. And so it shouldnt take an additional two years to rezone the property. [applause] this is how we are going to create a better future. Were going to have to do things differently. Were going to have to make the right investments and, yes, were going to have to come together because if we dont want San Francisco to continue to change so significantly, where neighborhoods are neighborhoods that we dont even recognize anymore, were going to have to make an aggressive investment in Affordable Housing. That is what today is about. Its an aggressive investment in Affordable Housing. It is the support from this community that has made it possible. So i plan to do everything i can to put housing at the forefront of our decisions, at the forefront of our discussions. At the forefront of how we invest our dollars and so i ask each and every one of you to continue your advocacy, to make sure that we not only acquire this property, but we get it done in less time than it typically takes us to get a project like this done. [applause] thank you all. Thank you anne cervantes. Thank you so much for being here, the mission community. Now lets get it done. Thank you. [applause] better. San Francisco Department of environment is a place where climate hits the street. We know that we dont have all the answers. We need to support our local champions, our local community to find Creative Solutions and innovations that help us get to zero waste. Zero waste is sending nothing to landfill or incineration, using reuse and recovery and prevention as ways to achieve zero waste. The Grant Program is a Grant Program specifically for nonprofits in San Francisco to divert material from landfill. Its important to find the San Francisco Produce Market because theres a lot of edible food that can be diverted and they need positions to capture that food and focus on food recovery. San francisco Produce Market is a resource that connects farmers and their produce with businesses in the bay area. I think its a basic human right to have access to healthy foods, and all of this food here is available. Its a matter of creating the infrastructure, creating jobs, and the system whereby none of this goes to waste. Since the beginning of our program in july 2016 to date, weve donated over 1 Million Pounds of produce to our community partners, and thats resulted in over 900,000 meals to people in our community, which were very proud of. Carolyn at the San Francisco Produce Market texts with old produce thats available. The produce is always excellent. We get things like broccoli, brussels sprouts, bell peppers. Everything that we use is nice and fresh, so when our clients get it, they really enjoy it, and its important to me to feel good about what i do, and working in programs such as this really provides that for me. Its helping people. Thats what its really about, and i really enjoy that. The work at the Produce Market for me representing the intersection between environment and community, and when we are working at that intersection, when we are using our resources and our passion and our energy to heal the planet and feed the people, nothing gets better than sustainability mission, even though the bikes are very Minimal Energy use. It Still Matters where the energy comes from and also part of the mission in sustainability is how we run everything, run our business. So having the lights come on with clean energy is important to us as well. We heard about cleanpowersf and learned they had commercial rates and signed up for that. It was super easy to sign up. Our bookkeeper signed up online, it was like 15 minutes. Nothing has changed, except now we have cleaner energy. Its an easy way to align your environmental proclivities and goals around Climate Change and its so easy that its hard to not want to do it, and it doesnt really add anything to clerk good morning, welcome to the thursday june 6th meeting of the oversight committee. And im supervisor gord an mar and im joined by supervisor brown and supervisor peskin will be joining us shortly. And thank you to the committees clerk john carroll for staffing meeting and id like to thank mr. Hernandez at sfgovtv. Mr. Clerk you have announcements . Clerk ensure that you silence your cellphones and Electronic Devices and your speaker cards are to be submitted to the clerk. Items acted upon today appear on the july 9, 2019 agenda unless otherwise stated. Supervisor mar call agenda one. Clerk the report for the fiscal year 20172018 submitted as required by the property and Business Improvement district law of 1994 and the district Management Agreement with the city. Supervisor mar id like to welcome helen mar, the specialist. And helen aiola, and the executive director who are here to present on this item. Andrea and helen, you will have 12 minutes to gather for your presentations. Thank you. Good morning, chair mar and supervisor brown. Helen marr with Workforce Development team. So as you may know c. V. D. S are governed by state law or the 1994 act and the local law, article 15. This resolution covers annual report for fiscal year 20172018. Oewd ensures that all c. B. D. S or b. I. D. S are meeting their Management Plans. We have an annual report and c. P. A. Financial reviews and we provide the board of supervisors with a summary memo which you can find in the packet in front of you. And the castro upper market c. V. D. Was first established in 2005, and it is set to expire in 2020. Its a property district with an assessment budget of 413,500. And it encompasses approximately 286 parcels. And its staff is the executive director andrea aiola who is here to present in the presentation. And their Service Areas are public rights of way and sidewalk operations. District identity and street improvements, and the administration and corporate operations. Oewd staff reviewed the benchmarks for castro upper market c. B. D. The variance between the budget amounts for each category within 10 Percentage Points from the Management Plan. And benchmark 2, whether of the castro upper market c. B. D. S came from other than assessment revenue. And bench mark three, the variance between the budget amounts for each service cat forey was within 10 Percentage Points from the actual. And benchmark four, whether the c. B. D. Is indicating the funds carried over from the current fiscal year and the project to be spent in the upcoming fiscal year. For benchmark one, the Management Plan versus annual budget, the methods requirement. For benchmark two, assessment revenue and other income, they also message requirement and they greatly exceeded their general benefit requirement of 5 with a nonassessment revenue of 7. 4 of their total budget. And for budget actuals, their variance point were within 10 Percentage Points so they met this requirement as well. And they had indicated their carryover is down in their annual report. And our findings and recommendations fo castro upper market c. B. D. Are as follows they met all benchmarks and requirements and they perform well with benchmark two with a variety of city grants and for donations they received throughout the year. It was determined that the c. B. D. Was in violation of the brown act. And oewd believes that it was due to the governing board turnover and the c. B. D. Rectified the situation immediately upon being contacted by oewd. And theyre set to sunset on june 30, 2020, and have begun their Renewal Campaign and our staff will provide Technical Assistance to guide them through the process. In conclusion, they have performed well in implementing their service plan in the district and they continue to successfully market and bruce events like live in the castro. They increased their opportunities and partnering with communities stakeholders and municipal agencies for the employization of castro care and they maintained an active board of directors and a robust committee. If there are no questions for staff id like to invite miss aiola up to present. Good morning, supervisors. Thank you for this opportunity to present our annual report for 20172018. So ill just briefly here we go the Community Benefit district in the castro is an unusual footprint. It is long. We go from octavia and Market Streets, so where the freeway ends, all the way up to castro street and castro downtown 19th. And we include the 100 block of safeway on Church Street, and go down Church Street to almost 15th and then we have a little side streets to capture some of the commercial that is just off of Market Street. But its a very long and almost, you know, Market Street up there is just kind of long and almost suburban in some ways. We have lots of active committees for such a small c. B. D. We have an executive committee and a finance committee, and our district identity Streetscape Committee and overseas all of our beautification, marketing, land use, retail strategy efforts, and our live in the castro efforts. And we have a volunteer program called castro ambassadors and that committee oversees that. Our Services Committee oversees our two large contracts with our cleaning team block by block and our Public Safety efforts which is a contract with the Patrol Special Police. We have a Landuse Committee that weighs in on Development Issues in the neighborhood. And we have a Retail Strategy Committee that is working very hard on trying to curb the commercial vacancies in the neighborhood and developing strategies to do that, whether theyre Marketing Strategies and whether were looking at ways that we can help businesses get through the City Planning Department and other regulations. And then we have a castro cares Leadership Team that is truly a collaborative effort with all of the major Neighborhood Associations and also nonprofits and religious organizations in the neighborhood. All working together. Its a castro care is both we have additional Law Enforcement so we pay for additional Patrol Special Police to enforce existing laws. And then we have 20 hours a week of Homeless Outreach services that we contract with through the San Francisco aids foundation. And we often do additional cleaning in the evening to make sure that the neighborhood is clean on weekend evenings during the dining hours until about 9 30 at night. And so in the organizations that we partner with include the castro merchants and the Neighborhood Association and the triangle Neighborhood Association and the plaza. And we also partner with most Holy Redeemer Catholic Church and st. Francis Lutheran Church and the aids foundation. And we are very, very close with our city family members, public works, sfpd mission station, recology, and m. D. A. And the department of homeless and Supportive Housing. We have recurring grants with the city through oewd for our castro cares program and for the jane morner improvement program. Both are critical at this point those grants are critical components of our budget and provide help us to provide our critical cleaning, security, and activation services. We also had a grant from the Horizons Foundation for the harvey please plaza at problem. Its the fiscal agent for the plaza. And we imagine a rebuilding project. And so last year we picked up 113,950pounds of trash, thats the equivalent of about 4. 5recology trucks, you know, garbage trucks. And we picked up about 2,800 instances of what we call Hazardous Waste but its as we know code brown, human feces. Graffiti continues to go in waves throughout the district so were constantly our commitment to the Property Owners is within 24 hours of notification to remove graffiti. We have these dispatch cards that have our dispatch our cleaning dispatch number that we aggressively hand out to all of the merchants and post on social media to have people alert us about graffiti in the neighborhood. And our Management Plan calls for quarterly steam cleaning. Thats not nearly enough. We try to steam clean every parcel once a month. But our the Management Plan expectations with our assessment budget is quarterly, once every three months. And then as i said we have a cleaning dispatch telephone number that is being used more and more. So thats really, really great. Examples of how graffiti happens all over the district graffiti on brick buildings is particularly difficult to get off. You could only get it off with Power Washing and thats one of thats our dedicated power washer. But, you know, steam cleaning sidewalks really makes a difference and it makes for the neighborhood to feel and smell clean. Public safety, as i said, we fund the Patrol Special Police. And theyre not dedicated to the castro c. B. D. , but, rather, the castro has been using the San Francisco Patrol Special Police to supplement the San Francisco Police Department services, probably for about 40 years in the neighborhood, and how they work is they have individual clients and they have private clients and they put together a budget based on the number of clients they have and how much they can charge each client. So were one of those clients. And our contribution enables them to be out basically until the bars close. So theyre here in the neighborhood from 4 00 p. M. To 1 00 a. M. On weekdays and on weekends until 3 00 a. M. They work really collaboratively with the Police Department, and one of the advantages of the patrol specialists is that they are on the police radio so they can respond to incidences really, really quickly and get police there for backup. Events and highlights that we have going on in the neighborhood so this year as helen said we continually raise about half of our budget in nonassessment dollars. And its critical, because after 15 years, 14 years really, our budget is about 516,000 for about 20 blocks. And i would say that that even though its not in this powerpoint, that is our biggest challenge is our budget and continuing to raise about half of the budget in nonassessment dollars is critical and essential. And we those extra dollars as i said fund not only, you know, nice things but they fund critical services. Live in the castro. Harveys halo. We had a great event to celebrate the 40th anniversary of harveys election. This was the harvey halo celebration and we collaborated with ben davis who put on the bay lights to have an incredible celebration in 2017. This is our volunteers that welcome visitors to the neighborhood. And we had funded through the city and through oewd, this is our temporary public arts called the seed. Do i need to stop . Im out . If you could wrap up quickly. So challenges we need more foot patrols on Market Street and we have them on castro but not market. And cardboard disposal is a huge problem throughout the city and in our neighborhood. And commercial vacancies are a huge problem. And, of course, all over the city but in our neighborhood especially. Mentally ill and Substance Abuse People Living on street. And castro cares is showing some improvements in the neighborhood and helping people who are in need. Were working on with the supervisor on targeting the delays in the system for reach out strategy to improve decrease our commercial vacancies. And we just want to continue what were doing. Public arts things that can bring more foot traffic to the neighborhood will also work to decrease the commercial vacancies and if we can increase Police Patrols that will help to make people safe, feel safe and come to the neighborhood more often. So thank you very much. Supervisor mar thank you, actually thank you for the really informative presentation and for all of the good work. Colleagues, do you have any questions or comments . Thank you. Are there any members of the public that wish to testify on this item . Seeing none Public Comment is closed. Colleagues can we recommend this item to the full board without objection . Great. Mr. Clerk, call items 2, 3 and 4 together.

Good morning, executive director of the union square bid and i want to thank chris corgis for being our liaison throughout this renewal process and thank you all for your support in recommending this. And i appreciate the city coming forward and supporting the bid renewal. It is important. It is a partnership. And i know that in the union square bid were asking our owners to considerably increase our assessments and asked for a 65 budget increase with some paying more than that. So its really important that the city not only do their Baseline Service but show that they are supportive of our efforts so that we can continue to move forward and make sure that union square is a desirable destination to live, work and visit. Thank you. Supervisor mar thank you. Anyone else that would like to speak on this item . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. So, colleagues, can we move this forward with positive recommendation .

Supervisor mar id like to recognize mr. Hines, with clean power. You have five minutes for your presentation. Thank you, supervisors, good morning, im hoping that i will need less than that. I have prepared remarks on this item for you. And so you have before you a resolution authorizing the general manager of the Public Utilities commission to execute a oneyear extension of the memorandum of understanding between the p. U. C. And the San Francisco local Agency Formation commission, or sflafco. To extend the duties by sflafco to advise the p. U. C. And with clean power development. And the implementation, for a duration of 12 years. From fiscal year 20082009 through fiscal year 20192020 with no changes to the total not to exceed amount of 2. 1 million. Since 2009, p. U. C. And lafco staff have worked cooperatively to develop clean power with the m. O. U. And m. O. U. Has been amended three times since we commenced working together, extending the terms of the agreement through this current fiscal year. The extension would only provide one year of additional time on the m. O. U. And does not include any additional funding. Work to be performed over the next year of the agreement will rely on approximately 200,000 remaining of that initial 2. 1 million. Based on discussions with lafcos assistant director we anticipate theyll use the remaining funds to hire a consultant to support lafcos oversight of clean power s. F. And the implementation, including the review of upcoming integrated Energy Resource and 10year Capital Planning work and the development of new Energy Programs and services to assist disadvantaged and lowincome communities in San Francisco with their energy burden.
