Stakeholder group is its a very large assumption to assume that private property commercial owners would be willing to or would want to share their savings with residential customers because they could do many of the good things that are being proposed for Energy Efficiency and capture 100 of the savings for themselves or for their tenants. So, absent that, the model is hard to make the numbers work. And, so, one other assumption, too, i thought i saw in there was the exhetch hetchy power would ...

Audited by the controller against our objectives, and we have an answer on that. Hopefully that answer will be that we have met and exceeded all of those objectives. So, i think its very important. And i think over the course of the last year, the various drafts of this policy have improved significantly, and i think its been worth that time. I also wanted to note the comments that we received from cac and especially chc had a bunch of recommendationses that deal with rate setting. That is not t...

Still left outstanding, the 14 you mentioned. Are they in neighborhoods we should be concerned about or are they all over the city . So, what is really nice about what the City Services auditor has done, the report card they do for parks and streets extends to one page, there is a large report that is attached to it. So, what will go through a geographic map and show where those parks are in the case of parks, in the case of streets and sidewalks, similarly for them. As we develop our score card...

Money wisely. As we ask for more of it, the threshold question will be, how did you do with the stuff we already gave you . So, the intent of the policy was to provide a set of assurances to rate payers that as we spend your money, we will do it consistent with law and also as wisely as we possibly can. Also wanted to make sure this wasnt just a bunch of words. We wanted it to be structured in such a way that somebody could audit it and could go in and take a look at our performance and say, you...

The cac meeting last month because it was just before a jewish holiday. But i had some quick comments on this. Im very supportive of the proposal, but just had some minor tweaks. On page 1 of the policy itself under personnel management, it says personal costs, i believe that should probably read personnel costs. With regard to commissioner morans amendment, if just want to be careful that were not requiring some particular set of findings in the budget adoption resolution for each increase and ...

Increase in rates over time. And we have in the past had rate backlash that resulted in a rate freeze. I expected at some point we are going to be under a great deal of scrutiny to demonstrate that we have spent the peoples money wisely. As we ask for more of it, the threshold question will be, how did you do with the stuff we already gave you . So, the intent of the policy was to provide a set of assurances to rate payers that as we spend your money, we will do it consistent with law and also a...

Not all sinks are the same. Not all Property Owners are the same. How you service that with a work force that is limited the number of trucks. That sort of thing. Its a very different proposal and thats the kind of thing i think youre working out and i dont want to rush into that. I do have two questions, though, that came out of the reading. One is that the two proposals are quite different in nature. Are we going to be asked to pick one or the other, or is there is this a phase a, phase b kind...

Set costs and rates by class, so, commercial customers pay only what commercial customers should be paying and residential customers pay only what residential customers should be paying because of the costs are divvied up. This model assumes that all the cost savings are socialized and that those cost savings which are predominantly generated by commercial customers are shared with residential customers. So, its not a good or bad policy, but its just a very different policy than what we get than...
