Colleagues, i begin our report this month in recommend pwrapbs of Joseph Flanagan who passed away in early march. Many of us knew him from district 6 as a Community Leader who was thoughtful and looked out for others, especially the seniors and disability community. I know commissioner kim will have remarks as well later on today. Let
Tuned for that. On the mars Transportation Task force, weve began briefing members. We will begin briefing your office so that we can answer questions and ensure that there is coordination and Information Exchange ahead of the may time frame for introducing those legislations before the fall. This is an item that will be before you all as the board of supervisors. I just wanted to highlight that were excited to take on the role of Treasure Island agency. The idea here and weve brought this item through in the past is to allow us to implement this through for a multirich program to support the development of transportation to enhance new Ferry Services and bus services and other mobility management strategies.

Taking well, it will never be single occupancy vehicles if you are taking a child to school, but trying to combine trips so we are more efficient in terms of getting children to school. So 11 schools, i mean there are 250 schools in the city, it may seem like a drop in the bucket but it was an initial attempt and i would assume that we will have a lot larger participation the next time we do it. Great. Yeah. Its one of these things its one of many, many ways to try to encourage efficiency in transportation and its a step in the process. Then the other thing that i was interested about was the zero waste enforcement. Uhhuh. I think weve spoken a bit about this before. What happens if buildings dont comply with sort of their zero waste obligations . Ultimately fines are an option. We have not gone down that road yet but we certainly have that as a part of our tool kit to try to get those buildings that are not participating to comply. So far voluntary efforts have been successful. Great.
The course of each year. We are looking holistically as to how we are going to manage water in the major event of storms. Thank you. Mr. Cruz, do you have any timeline for the assess ment of existing assets that we have . Yes, we definitely want to complete this assessment of what would be impacted within a matter of months then the next step to determine the level of impact which will also be a matter of months and then start to come up with the adaptation plan. That plan will take longer because of the potential dollar volume that we are talking about. If we have identified plans that would cost a few Million Dollars to implement and this those to go forward on and there are those that would be hundreds of millions of dollars and in which case we will do a whole holistic analysis and tell you what this is what phase one and phase two look like. I would like to add as part of the Sewer Improvement Program we have experienced sea rise as it relates to water intruding in our systems. Be
Into our reservoirs than getting ready for some mythical flood. We are looking for ways to ensure water in the best way we can. Nothing more we can do . There is always a little bit more. The residue voice reservoirs is where we are going to make our big effort and being able to store it is big. It gets used fairly quickly so it needs to be constantly fed or you need a big storage reservoir. I just wanted to point out thats why we are in better position than a lot of other Water Utilities because we are depending on storage and as calaveras comes along well have more storage and the interesting thing when you talk about Climate Change, a lot of people dont think Climate Change is here but they do agree that there is changes in the weather pattern. So we just go with that and i think one of the things that emilio pointed out in previous conversations is in the last couple years we had two 5 25year flood and hundred year flood while we are in a drought. When it comes, it comes. Thats why
