Percentage. These are current juniors. Who are africanamerican in the system, and it shows how many are on track or off track. So you can see out of the 323 students, we have 84 who are on track. But the remainder need to have Credit Recovery options in order to be able to graduate on time. Of our latino students of 323, in the 11th grade. Sorry. Wrong chart. 821. In the 11th grade. You can see that we have 265 who are on track. Meeting their benchmark courses. That remainder, the 364 and 114 an...

The last of the reserve. I agree but the fact is that the School District has the entire amount. And thats the question i have, that its a big priority that you would use some reserves to pay for dealing with this onetime problem and emergency that i heard comments made. And thats what i want to get to with the School District from the week that follows to the board of supervisors. And thats something that we want to see, and last time there was a request for 6 million in addition to other thing...

Teacher in the School District. I know first hand what its like to work and send your kids to school. And second hand what its like to go to school in the School District. We are facing tremendous challenges financially. I am really glad that we have the opportunity to provide funding and support to bring flexibility to the budget for the School District. I am glad we have a plan in place to target the funds to provide. Hopefully we will. Targeting students at risk not graduating from school. To...

It probably should be 793,000 . In front of us. Have the balance come from the state reserve, correct . Okay. So i wanted to clarify that, and glad that that was amended and changed. I know that young and other folks at the School District have been working hard with the Mayors Office to work on that number and really trying to work that number down in a way that didnt jeopardize the credentialing program so i want to thank the School District for making the effort to do that. So i am very suppo...

Nothing more than a refresher. To have a complete policy change in this legislation would be a mistake. So with that as my intro, for my justification as to why i think we need to do this, i do not ask the City Attorney to prepare the written language because frankly untangling it would have led toe a manner and the intent here is to offer an amendment that would replace the proposed language back with our current language so that all nonprofits will remain exempt from this tidf fee. That is my ...

That is why i will be voting against the amendment. Thank you. President chiu i will be supporting supervisor elsbernds amendment today. I think that it doesnt make sense for a simple renewal at this time for us not to continue existing policies. That being said, i absolutely agree with the transit community, that we need to have a real dialogue around longterm Funding Solutions for our transportation system, and i want to reiterate, my appreciation for the good faith commitment made by leaders ...

But with that i will be supporting supervisor elsbernd. Any further discussion . Colleagues, lets take a roll call vote on supervisor elsbernds amendment. Clerk calvillo supervisor mar, aye. Supervisor olague, aye. Supervisor avalos, aye. Supervisor camp...

Nonprofits. I thought long and hard about this andnjr o talked to a lot f folks about it and i actually dont think thats the direction that we should be going. That we should be going. I think thate with a nonprofit status should be paying into the Transportation System and because of that i would much prefer a different approach as opposed to a blanket exemption. I actually would much prefer having a higher level of Square Footage exemption to we are able to hold some of the smaller nonprofits...
