Extraordinary. We are not simply dependent on the staff that work here, they are the engine that get it done. Why . It is more than the fact they get paid and get a pension. The culture they want be to work here, this is a productive and nice play to work. That is an environmental issue we hold the director responsible for. That is one of the objectives. It is more than just developing people. It is developing people in order to do what . It is beyond the issue of the mission statement. I am sorry i dont have words for it. This is a living document maybe in the next couple months we will come back and capture that. That would be the context to understand the different recommendations about who we hireds, plans, restructuring, provide Better Services to the members. Good okay. Motion made and seconded. I will call for public comment. I agree with you. The culture is very, very good. It would be better if our Pension Funds bought a San FranciscoOffice Building for them to work in. Not only would the culture improve, it would be a great investment. If you would have bought one 10 years ago it would have been valued in value and you would have been collecting rent. You should give that a lot of consideration. Spend 500 million on a San FranciscoOffice Building and find out that is a much better investment than a hedge fund. All of your work in the Office Building if you cant work in an edge fund. Thank you. With that i call the question. Those in favor of the motion made and seconded say aye. Opposed. Okay we are on item 19. This is discussion only with several action items behind it. I am trying to figure out how to manage time. This is a day andahalf retreat boiled down in this document. I think we should spend another day and a half talking about this. This was a document that myself and staff and our consultant put together to try all of the recommended changes that came out of the group. Just being presented to the board so the board can see what they voted on and what has been done. It is intended to be as submitted for your information only. I would say as submitted there is also the recommendations for all of the changes, some of them are just name changes, all of the documents in terms of reference. Others are date changes bringing it uptodate. Again, since we are reviewing these every six months, we can call them to review them. We will review them in committee, i would say we could take them all at one time now and accept them as submitted. The policies and terms of references are being reviewed on five year cycle unless something comes up. The Strategic Plan report would be every six months. Some of them are very technical. The service cord natetor. We havent reviewed it. It is very technical. They go as a packet. Certainly, i am assuming we could consider them altogether. The terms of reference, board communication policy, finance committee are certainly things that as president driscoll indicated were talked about plunge the Board Members for more than one and a half days retreat but have been talked about since. This is 14 pages o of matrix. I am letting the Board Members know. Be prepared to figure out how we are going to do things going forward. There are things i have to do. Educational development issues. I will be bothering you with 800474676 with the phone ca. Thanks for doing this. With that we can continue on with the terms of reference changes. Public comment. I have to call for public comment. No public comment. I make a motion to adopt all of these as submitted. That would be item 21, 22, 23 and 24. Correct. As submitted. The whole package. I will make a motion. I will second it. Just one comment. It is directed toward the finance committee. Or operations committee. At the Governance Committee we were trying to derm what rules needed to be changed on behalf of the operations committee. It doesnt make sense for us to make changes. Look at what your powers are and what rules need changed in referring back. There are certain things in the preceding document that were not a discussion item. The word deliverables comes up. Projects are taken one, two, three, five years. Are things operating . Do we have a problem . More resources, more time . That is the improvement change we need to do. Public comment on the motion to adopt the four changes. Those in favor say aye. Opposed. Okay. We already did 25. Cio report. Very good, Board Members, i will do this. Is there anything we must do today . No. We have to do the report out. I will do part of it. It will take a minute andahalf. The report out. We will just do items four through seven. I can do this in a minute andahalf. I dont want to drag this on any longer. I dont understand why we have to read it out when it is documented in the written report. We can take that offline. Nor do i. That solves that legal issue. Thank you. Proceed. One of our best ideas in the Energy Sector 75 million the board approved in may. We did get all 75 million. E ventures strategy for 35 million, we got 30 million. Pag special situations investment, the board approved last month for 50 million. We did get all 50 million. Equity endeavor is one of the software specialists. We requested 75 million. We were cut back to 60 million. With that we can complete the rest of the report next month. Thank you. That takes us to item 26. Executive directors report. We have provided you with the first iteration of the operations dashboards that would be included under the funds and recommendations in my report. I welcome any Board Members basically reaction to it. If there are areas you would like us to track. In addition please let me know. I would also like to say that we are having our annual Employee Recognition luncheon the following friday, july 19th, starting at 11 30 a. M. It will be here. We are bringing lunch in. I welcome any Board Members with the time or opportunity to come. We recognize folks who have achieved milestones of service with the department. There will be good food. I would like to welcome all of you. The only other thing that has come up since i have written the report. There is introduced to the board of supervisors and supervisor safai was a cosponsor amendment to the heart and pneumonia presumption for police and fire plans that we are having analyzed and we are required to cost. What i will have for the august Board Meeting is what we will have presented to the board of supervisors and the cost impact of the plan. I have the copies of the current final draft of the ordinance if anyone is interested. Otherwise it will be at the august Board Meeting. It is making it less restrictive, not necessarily easier to qualify but certainly full analysis is still in progress. One comment. A lot of that has to do with cancer clusters. I would not exclude i dont want to use the term exclude. I would want to include the civilian employees who have been working in those environments, also, because the cancer cluster. This does not in fact do that. It is specifically for the industrial disability benefit and the presumption that the plan respects on both cancer, heart and pneumonia. This is heart and pneumonia only, not cancer. Supervisors brown, safai yes, walton and haney are the ones that introduced this. We are notified of our responsibility to cost it, which we are in the process of doing. I will have more information for you in august. That is it. Let me underscore the third bullet about the annual performance evaluation. Ashley will reach out to every board member to do the performance evaluations. That is a must do. Tomorrow is the period to start that. The lunch that letter it might be a good time to have that ready to read out loud. It is dedicated to them and it is their lunch. Just a thought. The next item is any other additional members wish to make reports or comments . The other report missing is the Governance Committee report that they determined not to do an outside third party evaluation. With ashley doning, our governancgoffgovernance will dot evaluation of the board performance, not to be confused with the annual evaluation. It was in the matrix. Motion to adjourn in order. So moved. Public comment. Call the question. Meeting adjourned. Meeting adjourned. Okay. , good afternoon okay, good afternoon. Im sorry, what . Okay, good afternoon. Welcome to the july 9th, 2019 regular meeting of the San Francisco board of supervisors. Madame clerk, please call the role. Thank you, mr. President. [roll call] mr. President , you have a quorum thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, will you please join me in the pledge of allegiance. [pledge of allegiance] okay. On behalf of the board, i would like to acknowledge the staff of San Francisco government television, lawrence and alexander and jesse who record each of our meetings and make the transcripts available to the public online. Madame clerk, are there any communications . Yes. We received a communication from the office of supervisor Catherine Stefani who anticipated being out of town today and requested to be excused from this meeting. Colleagues, can i have a motion to excuse supervisor stefani from the meeting . Motion made by supervisor ronen and seconded by supervisor safai without objection, supervisor stefani is excused. So, madame clerk and colleagues, before we move on, i would like to do something a little bit different today and introduced to you a new segment to highlight the work of our city departments that are sometimes overlooked. Today we will have a short clip from whats next San Francisco, or whats next s. F. , produced by our Emmy Awardwinning team at San Francisco government t. V. , featuring the department of recreation and park and theyre wheelchair basketball program. Can we roll the clip . I got the hang of it a little bit from the first time. I never left the court. I just fell in love with it and any opportunity i had to get out there, you know, they didnt have to ask me twice. That is where you can always find me, on the court. [ ] thank you to some generous support for sports and recreation, we have been able to purchase approximately 12 athletic wheelchairs. This grant provides a really expensive tool to facilitate basketball, specifically. Behind me are the amazing golden skate war golden state road warriors, which are one of the most competitive adaptive basketball teams in the state. Led by its captain, chuck gill, it was a National Pair olympian and is now an assistant coach on the u. S. National team. It is great to have this opportunity here in San Francisco. This is the main hub of the bay area which, you know, we should definitely have these resources here. Now that that is happening, you know, i am looking forward to that growing and spreading and helping spread the word that these resources are here for everyone. I think it is important for people with disabilities, as well as ablebodied to be able to see and to try this sport and to appreciate just trying different things. People can come and check out the chairs to use them any time we have openings, but also friday evenings from 6 00 p. M. Until 8 00 p. M. , it will be wheelchair basketball. We will make sure the floor is available. That way people can no that other people can come into play at the same time. We always try to meet people where they are at regardless of any difference in ability. We offer a wide variety of adaptive and inclusionary programming, but this is the first time we have ever had our own equipment and that enables us to do some important things. [ ] thank you. Thank you. You know, we often times are here to critique, criticize, or to try to get our departments to be more aware of issues that come from our home districts and throughout the city and we forget on a daily basis that our departments actually do a lot of positive things. I want to take the opportunity to maybe do this once a month where we have these short segments. I hope that you will provide some suggestions and some of the departments that you would like to see. I think it is important for the public to know how our tax dollars are being spent. Okay . So, thank you. Lets go to our approval for the Meeting Minutes. Yes, approval of the june 4 th, 2019 Board Meeting minutes. Colleagues, today we are approving the minutes from june 4th, 2019. Are there any changes to these Meeting Minutes . Seeing none, can i have a motion to approve the a minute prove the minutes as presented . Made by supervisor walton and seconded by supervisor fewer. Motion to approve without objection, these minutes will be approved after public comment. Madame clerk, lets go to our Consent Agenda and call items one through five. Items one through five are considered routine, a single roll call vote will occur, otherwise discussion of an item will occur only if a member severs it to be considered separately. Okay. Colleagues, would anyone like to sever any items from the Consent Agenda . Seeing no names on the roster, madame clerk, please call the role. On items one through five. [roll call] there are ten imacs. Okay. Without objection these ordinances are passed on First Reading unanimously. Madame clerk, please call the next item. Item six is an ordinance to call and provide for special election to be held in the city on tuesday, march 3rd, 2020 for the purpose of submitting to the San Francisco voters a proposition to incur bonded debt of this city in the amount of 620. 5 million to finance the construction and seismic retrofitting of multiple facilities for earthquake safety and Emergency Response pursuant to california Government Code Section 43607 and 608. This item requires a vote. Okay. Colleagues, can we take this item same house, same call . Without objection, this ordinance is passed unanimously. Madame clerk, please call the next item. Item seven is an ordinance to appropriate approximately 12. 2 million in Public UtilitiesCommission Funds to appropriate to but 1 million from airport airport Commission Funds to d. Appropriate and re appropriate 304,000, approximately from the port Commission Funds and pursuant to charter section 9. 113 subsection c. , this ordinance requires a 23 rd vote of all members for the 12. 1 million in Public Utilities commission appropriations approval, 200 and 83,004 Airport Airport Commission reappropriation approval and 139,000 in Port Commission reappropriations. Chair peskin okay okay. Colleagues, can we take this same house, same call . This ordinance is finally passed madame clerk, please call item number 8. Item eight is an ordinance to amend the ministry to code to establish the cooperative living living opportunities for Mental Health loan fund and the Mental Health program to finance the acquisition of Residential Properties operated as communal housing for people with chronic Mental Illness and or Substance Use disorders. Colleagues, can we take this item same house, same call . Without objection oh, i see supervisor safai. Sorry, you are moving so fast i almost missed it. Colleagues, i am in support of this amendment, this legislation today. I think it is very thoughtful. I wanted to add my name is a cosponsor, but just speaking to the sponsor of the legislation, i wanted to add one small piece of language on i am proposing an amendment on line 23, page 5 that would add the ability that there would be an appraisal of the Property Done before any purchase of the property, so that would just be four words after the word start with the Program Regulations shall address matters such as programs and fund administration, public and competitive processes to apply for loans, compliance with applicable laws and regulations, appraisal of the property affordability restrictions for the longest possible term. Those will use the funds underwriting the criteria and Transaction Processing documentation and compliance monitoring and enforcement. Okay. Any objection . I see there is a motion put forward by supervisor peskin. I think the actual provision in the code is pursuant to chapter 23 of the administrative code, but i will defer to council. Deputy city attorney. You are correct, supervisor peskin that chapter 23 addresses appraisal requirements for city purchases of property. This amendment will authorize the department to adopt regulations regarding appraisals under this program. Okay. Any other comments . While i have the floor, perhaps a relevant section of law that supervisor safai wants to refer to his chapter 23 of the administrative code. He said applicable law, the applicable law is that chapter. The current ordinance provides that the department will adopt regulations regarding compliance with applicable law and other issues including appraisals, Program Administration et cetera. So i think supervisor safais amendment hits the mark. For the president , i get it. Is there a second for that . Okay. If there is no objection, one can we take the amendment as stated . Okay. Motion passes. Colleagues
