Supervisor mar yes. I would like to thank both candidates for your leadership that youre already showing and contributions to our city in your respective areas and still young leaders, yeah, its just great to have you, you know, so actively involved in our city and our communities. I appreciated mr. Williams perspective on how entertainment is important to our communities in improve our quality of life, especially for those facing gentrification and quality of life issues. But i think im inclined to support the reappointment of miss caminong just given her depth of experience on the Entertainment Commission and her experience in these communities. I would like to make a motion that we recommend the reappointment of Dori Caminong to the Entertainment Commission with positive recommendation as a Committee Report. Supervisor walton thank you, supervisor mar. Were on the same page, so well take that motion, move it forward without objection. Clerk this item will be recommended as a Committee Report with the for the appointment of Dori Caminong to seat one. Supervisor walton i do want to take the time to say to mr. Williams, you said you do live in district ten. I liked what you said. One, my door is always open. Love to have a conversation to hear what we can do to improve district ten, even without you being successful in this appointment at this time. You dont have to be on the commission for us to work together, and congratulations miss caminong for your name to move forward. With that, mr. Clerk, we will go back and take item number four. Item numb clerk item number four is a motion rejectingapproving ruby deleon to the Treasure Island board of directors for a term ending february 26, 2022. Supervisor walton thank you very much. Is miss valeria shiffrin here . Okay. Thank you, mr. Clerk. Well move to item number seven and come back to four. Clerk item sev [agenda item read]. Im with the port of San Francisco finance team. Im working on the mission rock and pier 70 project specifically, and im here to talk about the local special tax financing law amendments. It is a local law already existing, and were adding in some amendments related to these projects. So just as a little bit of background, i will start by giving a brief overview of the two projects for pier 70, which is in district ten. Its around 23 and 3 street on the waterfront. This was the historic ironworkers district. Been closed for several decades and welcome to revitalize this space adding a mixeduse neighborhood with housing, commercial space. So the space was entitled in fall 2017. It is 35 acres. Were looking at 1600 to 3,000 units of housing, and 1. 5 to 1. 75 million square feet of housing. Public benefits, 30 of the housing will be affordable onsite . Well be using local labor with prevailing wages. We will be rehabilitating several of the buildings, which is part of the amendments here today . So you can see in a couple of the pictures the Historic Buildings that were warehouses for the ironworkers, well be taking several of them and retrofitting them and raising them up and preparing them for future uses . Well also be building sea level protection into the area to plan for the year 2100 Sea Level Rise in an extreme event. There will be an arts facility onsite and child care, as well. For mission rock, this is currently the San Francisco giants parking lot . So you can see on the top what it looks like right now, and the bottom what it will look like when it is complete. It will be done in four phases and this site wass entitled in 2018. Were looking at 40 acres. There will be eight acres of open space, the current china basin park, which is right along the water alongside the stadium will be significantly expanded. There will also be a Market Square in the middle of the neighborhood. 40 of the housing is affordable, 40 to 45 prz p to. Local hires. It will have on sisite child care. So the reason im here today is for the special tax financing law amendments oh, one more thing. So the financing around this that we need the amendments for . So the initial investments will be made by the developer, end port capital, and these are horizontal improvements like streets, power, sewer, water so we can build buildings on the site . Well fund these officially with capital from the developer and the port which will be paid off using Community Facilities districts and infrastructure financing district taxes . What we do there is we capture the taxes on the site and add a special tax district to fund this work which will pay for the parks, the roads, the sewers. And when thats not available, well use value of the land, so leasing or selling certain parcels to fund the project. And then, eventually, we will use the taxes to issue bonds, and that will payoff the remainder of the project. So what is the special tax financing law, the reason were here today . Its used to create special tax districts, more commonly known as community districts. These are allowed by the melloroos laws, passed in the 1980 1980s. And in San Francisco, it was originally adopted as part of the green finance s. F. Program, and it was recently amended in november 2018 as part of the central soma plan adding in some parks and other uses there. For the pier 70 and mission rock, theres two buckets of amendments. The first is just clarifying the existing law and clarifying any ambiguities . And then, the second is requesting that you authorize certain improvements that are not currently permitted . The three that ive highlighted here, the first is Historic Buildings, so paying to rehabilitate the Historic Buildings for future uses, market housing, and then seismic improvements, so making sure those buildings are seismically safe. And then, the last major one is entitlement costs, so the cost that went into planning the entire site of both projects. Those are the main three things that will be added in, and then, clarifications. So later this year, youll be seeing the members of the port again to continue financing these projects. Theres a twostep process for the Community Facility district which is the special type of tax district were looking to form here. So first, we will declare the intention. This is a Public Notice of the intention . And then, we will form the Community Facilities district by special election. It is done by either the residents, and if there are no residents on the site, then, the landowners on the site. And its done by a vote at the board of supervisors. And then, after that, we will issue the bonds on the taxes there and this will pay for the initial Capital Investments of parks, sewer, roads, all the horizontal infrastructure and then continuing on to pay for the maintenance, as well so that the taxes fully fund the neighborhood and all those benefits that it provides to the community. And eventually, we will leverage the infrastructure financing tax to pay for additional improvements or future bonds. And that is all i have. If there are any questions, thank you, supervisor walton and supervisor mar for your time, and im happy to answer. Supervisor walton do i hyo have any questions, supervisor mar . Supervisor mar well, thank you for this presentation. It all sounds great. Im sorry. Im just trying to get an idea of these complicated financial ideas. Yeah. Its very complex. Supervisor mar whats the difference between the c. F. D. And the i. F. D. Sure. So the infrastructure financing district is a special district. Theres actually one along the entire embarcadero and we create subproject areas. What that does, that captures the tax increment . So the property taxes above and beyond what was initially existing, and that tax increment, the additional, the portion of the city stays onsite so we can issue bonds or pay for future improvements on that site. And then, the second is the Community Facilities district, which that is an additional tax that is leveed. Sometimes it can be offset, but that is used to traditionally develop under utilized areas, and thats what were doing here, so thats done by voter initiative. Anything else i can clarify there . Supervisor mar so this the Community Facilities district, when you say by voters, you mean the the in the case of in the case of both of these, i believe it will be the Property Owners since there are no voters there, but i believe its usually done by voters, and if theres less than 12 voters, then, its done by Property Owners. Supervisor walton also, none of the resources will be dedicated for transportation improvements or infrastructure . So there is funding there for the roads and streets. I believe as part of the development agreement, there was a transportation plan, but i can get back to you on that if you want to know more about the specific transportation . Supervisor walton i know its in the d. A. But i want to so ill get back to you to know exactly whats in the transportation plan. Supervisor walton thank you. With that, we will hear Public Comment on item number seven. Mr. Wright . Im going to take the consideration of Affordable Housing out of the Mayors Office of Affordable Housings hands. It needs to be in the hands of a federal judge. You violate the law, due prosper taining to equal application of the law pertaining to the Homeless People out on the due process, pertaining to equal application of the law pertaining to Homeless People out on the street. You can price gouge and price fix and let that 30 of affordable let it be for people in high income brackets. 40 at 45 to 50 of a. M. I. You do not use the [s thbrackets on the a. M. I. Back on me, camera man. Jane kim price fixed and price gouged. 40 of that apartment complex is supposed to be Affordable Housing, and only 2 is accepted to apply at an income of about 45,0 45,000 to 50,00. Youve got inclusionary law where people in the lowincome is supposed to be drunkinclude the housing opportunity, but yet, when you do the documentation, you do not include them. Supervisor walton thank you, mr. Wright. Is there any other Public Comment on item number seven . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Supervisor mar, did you have any questions or statements . Thank you. With that said, i will make a motion to refer to the board of supervisors with positive recommendation. Well take that without objection. At this time, we would like to id like to make a motion to recess until 11 15. Going to give our nominee for item number four an opportunity to get here by 11 15. Supervisor walton back in session. Thank you so much. Mr. Clerk, would you please call item number four. Clerk item number four is the motion approvingrejecting the mayors nomination for ruby bolariashifrin for a term ending february 26, 2022. Supervisor walton thank you so much. Miss bolariashifrin, you have the floor. You know, when you cant get rid of your maiden name. So my name is ruby bolariashifrin. Im honored and humbled that the mayor has nominated me to be on the board. San francisco has been my home for most of my adult life. I started my career in the Environmental Movement in earth justice and after working with the Obama Campaign in 08 i bam an Event Organizer working with water and food rights. I wanted to learn more and went to ucla to earn my masters in urban and regional planning. After graduating, i worked in Real Estate Development in San Francisco both in the Office Market and as a regional manager for fi5point. My current role allows me to blend my Mission Driven roots and experience with my more technical housing knowledge. Besides visiting island for my birthday, i went to Treasure Island to learn about its rich history including the emergence of San Francisco as a force, including the navy was fascinating. I learned about the climate impaction plan. I am familiar with the island, its conditions, and history. Should i be appointed, my goals would include helping ensure Treasure Island development delivers on its promises so both current and future residents can enjoy the community. Im committed to learning the desires of the current residents and make sure theyre heard. We must think about the communities impacted with the development. It is my goal to promote transparency so that the outcomes are well understood. Throughout my career, i have sought to promote equity and believe the built environment, housing in particular, are key to building Thriving Communities where everyone has access to opportunity. I believe my experience working with impacted communities, development, and supporting policy change would be put to good use to supporting the public in this role. Treasure island will become a destination for bayarea residents and tourists around the world. I would work with the board to building Treasure Island into a better place for our city. I thank you for your support. I also have some letters inform are your support letters for your support. Supervisor walton do you have any questions, supervisor mar . Ye supervisor mar i did have some questions well, just to say youre youre youre a really impressive candidate, and you bring a lot of of great per spspectives and to t great work happening around the development. I was just wondering if you could elaborate a little bit more maybe on how you would approach working with the current residents to ensure their concerns and their voices are included, you know, as this important work moves forward. Yeah, absolutely. One of the things ive been able to do is work with supervisor haneys office to identify some of the Community Leaders and activists on the island, so ive setup meetings with them to meet with them and hear more of what their concerns are, not only with the island Bohemian Rhapsody their engagement in the gorchsance and process . So one, just listening, theyre the experts, theyre the impacted community. Theyre the ones that should be proposing both the concerns and their solutions. And i think that what i would like to do, some of the concerns that i have heard about are the residents post d. D. A. And what happens with them . The toll and congestion pricing, and the desperate impact it has on lowincome folks. So i think both of those issues are solvable . But making sure that the current residents are have a seat at the table in coming up with those policy decisions i think will be critical, so thats something that i hope to bring. Supervisor mar thank you. And i think for this project and others that that are potentially contentious, and theres different interests, sometimes competing interests, i think Building Trust among the different stakeholders is really key, do you have any thoughts about how we can continue to foster and built more trustine tida and the residents and the businesses . Yeah, in my current job, i would say that 90 of my job is Building Trust, so i think that this would be a very similar situation and a similar use of my skills in that way in engaging with folks especially oneonone and on us the realm of and outside the realm of a courtroom, having more of informal conversations. And proof is in the pudding, right . So i think step one, listening, talking, engaging, bringing those concerns up within the tida board but also acting on that, right . Talk is cheap, and so itll be really important that the board is able to take action that reflects the concerns of the community. Supervisor mar great. Thank you, and just maybe one more specific question as an example. What are your thoughts on the proposed tolls. So congestion pricing is not new. It exists in london, singapore. So i think there is a model and by the way, there are exemptions for lowincome folks. So there are model that we can look to to try to find the most equitiable solutions here . So i think there needs to be some carve outs, but what that looks like the devil is in the details . But i think that is a conversation that needs to be on the table. Supervisor walton so you mentioned a little bit on talking about what concerns residents have for their rights postd. D. A. What kinds of ideas are you thinking about working with the residents on so that they can keep their rights . Yeah, absolutely. So the d. D. A. Was signed almost ten years ago, right . So, like, this is not something where you sign the d. D. A. And then, a year later, right . This is now something where youve had folks living in the community for a while, so we need to be looking at something that include them in an equitiable way but dont threaten their housing. In another job, we had folks eligible for considerable upgrades, and folks were moving in not considered under that same agreement. So we had to work there was the government side, and an n. G. O. That we were working it, so we worked together to find a solution to incorporate these residents and what that would look like. And what that was based on was Community Participation and engagement. So i think one thing to figure out is what that looks like for folks in the community and then figure out whats possible. Supervisor walton how would you work with the residents to make sure that the site is clean, there arent any radiological hazards, health issues. How would you make sure we do the right thing in that area . Absolutely. So one of the main things and this is where i think communication and transparency is key. A lot of times, folks say trust me or do it in a way that doesnt resonate. Step one is understanding and then tida could be involved in the communitien gamgment process to get Community Results and get community buyin. So gaugement process to get Community Results and get community buyin. This goes back to what supervisor mar was saying about Building Trust and Building Trust in the community. Supervisor walton theres always communication concerns particularly when were talking about development, and we know that there are populations of folks that english is not their first language. How are you going to ensure that information gets out to residents where english is not their first language . Absolutely. I think we need to have demographics around the community and stuff so we know what were dealing with in terms of how to communicate . Because theres other things to deal with. And then, the second step is to work with i mean, i would probably hire a consulting firm, also, that can put together either consulting probably more appropriate would be, too, Community Groups that exist in the city . I think Treasure Island sometimes feels isolated, and theres a lot of amazing Community Groups that exist in San Francisco that if given a Little Community support would be happy to lend their services to Treasure Island, and so thinking about how we can share our resources in San Francisco. Supervisor walton thank you. Any other questions, supervisor mar . With that said, we will open this item up to Public Comment. If anyone would like to speak, you can lineup to my left, your right, and you have two minutes. I want you to pay real close attention. First of all, theres no concrete test results on that r radio active material at Treasure Island. I recommend you getting hired, but theres a recommendation to getting those samples tested. Theres an example of a black man coming to the offices of jane kim to talk about the cancer that he was diagnosed with, and jane kim slammed the door in his face. This complex on my right is a threestory Apartment Building apartment of 144 units, and the price is 56 million per 144 units. Its the best bargain in construction of apartment complex in the whole god damn city and county of San Francisco. Im upset that youre not taking advantage of my information. Theres another apartment complex, as well. Its an 87unit apartment complex. Its being built and sold for 57 million complex. Three times nine is 29. Th 27. That means you could build three complexes and use the same technique as this 87unit apartment complex and take chunks out of the homeless. Weve got a rule that says 15 of all Apartment Building complexes are supposed to be for lowincome and very lowincome and youre not using it. Thats why youve got supervisor walton thank you, mr. Wright. Any other Public Comment . And please feel free to lineup over there if you plan to speak. Hi. Im katelyn fox. Im a resident of San Franciscos district ten . And i work with ruby, and she managed our housing portfolio which is within the justice and opportunity initiative. I believe ruby would be an excellent member of the Treasure Island Development Authority for three reasons. First her passion for housing is undeniable. Her career speaks to this issue, and seeing it from multiple points. She has helped craft a comprehensive nuanced strategy to develop housing in our region and in our state. She is able to push for very Bold Solutions for our housing. Ive seen firsthand that ruby does this beautifully. Third, she is committed to ensuring equity and addressing the consequences that may impact the most vulnerable residences. She makes sure that no one is left out of living in the city and benefiting from our regions growth. So i think that ruby would be an excellent addition to the committee and i fully support her recommendation to the committee. Thank you. Supervisor walton next speaker. Hi. Im anna lee gould. Ive known ruby over a decade as well and her commitment not only to the members of San Francisco but to the members of this most Vulnerable Community is something thats truly drawn me and others to her. I started working with her back in 2009, i believe, as a Domestic Violence crisis counselor for womens inc . She has continued to show her dedication to the womens rights issues. Global fund for women is another project that she dedicates her time to that ive seen firsthand how effective she can be. Shes clearly empathetic and passional but above all, pragmatic which will serve her and the other Community Members well. So i strongly support the nomination, and i appreciate the time. My name isally jones. Im a tenyear resident of San Francisco. Im here today to offer my personal recommendation for ruby bolariashifrin to the Treasure Island Development Authority. Ive been lucky to know ruby over 20 years. We grew up in sacramento. Ruby takes it upon herself to right the wrongs in the world and inspires those lucky enough to be around her to do the same. I know she would excel as a board member because she represents everyone in Treasure Island. Her determination and passion to make a difference, and her commitment to use housing as a tool to create opportunities in San Francisco, across california, and as you heard internationally where she worked to approve housing settlements in johennesburg, south africa. I know she will take this position seriously and create a Treasure Island that is equitiable and offer opportunities to those who face the greatest barriers. I ask that you support mayor breed aways recommendation and appoint ruby to the Treasure Island Development Authority. Thank you. Supervisor walton thank you. Next speaker, please. My name is j. D. Baselco. Ruby and i met seven years ago at ucla. We took many of the same classes, including those focused on Affordable Housing development and planning. She was always speaking out for those who dont have a joyce. This stems from her own personal experiences and experience in personal justice. Ruby is unwaivering in this, regardless of the situation she finds herself in both personally and professionally. Shes not afraid to speak up and asks the hard questions when evaluating a situation which i think will make her especially value for this commission. Lastly, ruby is an active member of all of her various communities that she finds herself in. For example, she initiated ucla Alumni Association in the area. I have no doubt that ruby will bring a Community Oriented and technically sound perspective to this board, and i urge you to support her nomination. Thank you. Supervisor walton thank you. Do we have any other speakers on this item . Hello. My name is lala hume, and i am here to support the nomination of ruby bolariashifrin to the Treasure Island Development Authority. I practice land use law, and clerked for federal judges including here and the Northern District of california. Im a graduate of u. C. Berkeley school of law. Im a proud resident of the Mission District in San Francisco. Ive known ruby almost two years in personal engagement as well as professional capacities. Given my past experience and the contacts and interests i maintain in these areas, ive had the opportunity to learn about rubys work in a professional context. She has a thoughtful approach to solving problems to ensure all voices with heard. In many situations she has proven herself to be the most engaged and impactful when shes helping others. I support rubys nomination to the Treasure Island Development Authority and i urge you to do the same. Supervisor walton thank you. Is there any other Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Thank you so much for coming in and step forward to want to serve in this role. The work on Treasure Island is really important. We have a lot of work to do to make sure that we do the right thing. I am working very hard to do some of the same things on the shipyard, so this role is not to be taken lightly. Supervisor mar, do you have any comments . Supervisor mar yeah, would just echo your thanks, you know, to miss bolariashifrins willingness to step up to one of the most important roles in the city, and i thank you for the willingness that you expressed in working with the community to make sure that their voices are heard and their interests are considered in the work thats going to be moving forward on Treasure Island and also your commitment to ensuring equity, you know, in the new development. So i would like to make a motion to approve the mayors nomination of ruby bolariashifrin to the full board of supervisors as a Committee Report. Supervisor walton i second that motion, and we will take that without objection. Clerk that matter will be recommended as amended to the Board Meeting scheduled for tomorrow. Supervisor walton and mr. Clerk, do we have anymore items . Clerk that completes the agenda for today. Supervisor walton thank you. Seeing no more business, this meeting is adjourned. Good morning. So im mary ellen carol, the executive director at the department of management. Welcome. Were here to talk about the 911 which is so going to help us from a Technology Perspective to bring our 911 system to what we call next gen, next generation. So ive been the director here for a year, and its just amazing how much we are able to accomplish, but with technology that is literally decades behind. Were so grateful to leadership, of our mayor and our governor, to help us to bring forward this funding that honestly is going to help us come to technology that most people in their daytoday lives in their personal technology have above what 911 is. This is going to make our calltaking more efficient and honestly its going to save lives, which is really the bottom line and why were here. Thank you so much and ill hand it over to our mayor. Mayor breed thank you so much for being here today. I want to add to what mary ellen said about what we need to do to take our Emergency Response system to the next level. Nowadays its not just about making phone calls. People are Text Messages and delivering messages in a lot of different ways. So it is time that our systems reflect the changes in technology. So ab 911 is just an incredible step forward that will provide us with the resources necessary to improve our system throughout the entire state of california. I want to thank our governor for signing the legislation and his leadership and vision on moving us forward to the 21st century, because we know that when someone reaches out and they are in a situation of an emergency, that they clearly need help and we need to have a better response system. Im sure many of you remember years ago when people when cellphones just began well, that was a long time ago, but cellphones first became a thing and how people would use cellphones in some instances to call 911, but they would be transitioned to another county and there was some difficulty in communication and how we provided Emergency Response to get to that location. So things have definitely gotten better since then, but there is so much that we can do to make it even better. Having the funding necessary to invest in new technologies so that text messaging and all the things we do now to communicate are used in a way to address any situation, whether there is a wild fire or a heat advisory or all of those different challenges that sadly weve had to endure, we want to be prepared, we want to respond in a timely manner, and we are ready to move forward in making those investments to do just that. I want to introduce at this time our governor, who has again been a leader in this effort and on new technologies and used to have my job as mayor. Welcome home to our governor. Thank you, mayor. Thank you all for being here. It is nice to be back. This is my first day on the job as mayor was in this building when i convened what we called at the time the disaster council. I was, i guess in looking back, overly anxious during my time as mayor we would experience a major earthquake. Thankfully we did not. I maintain that anxiety as your governor. That anxiety was only heightened after ridgecrest. Its been heightened certainly after the last two wildfire seasons as well. As ive navigated this state and learned more about our 911 system, it goes without saying its only reinforced that anxiety. The 911 system as we know it today was established in 1973. The technology is outdated. The technology lazily can be referred to as analog technology. It predates the internet, as the mayor suggested, it predates smartphones. 80 of the activity that occurs around a call center is smartphone based not landline based, though we have a system to finance our call centers that predates this new technology. Were overly relying on burdening landlines and as a consequence we have not been able to modernize our system and weve been disproportionately burdening those holding on to that technology, tend to be people on fixed income and seniors. Weve been fortunate. Theres been efforts over the last few years to update our system that have fallen short. We were successful this year in pushing through our budget and ultimately in this what we call trailer bill to get to the point where today we can formally announce that by the end of this month we have identified the vendors and we will be moving forward with updating not only the state lay of the 911 system, moving from analog to digital but our four Major Regions that define this state. There are about 437 other call centers like this, 438 in the state of california, which is an extraordinary number. The reality is they dont have the technology, they dont have the tools to connect. They dont have the capacity to redirect call volume if something goes wrong or theres a surge in that volume. It is selfevident to anyone in San Francisco if theres a major earthquake, the surge volume here will simply overwhelm this call center. Our ability once this new technology is deployed will allow the call volume, as an example, potentially to be redirected to sacramento, redirected to eureka, redirected to l. A. , wherever the capacity will allow. Thats what this technology does. It has a geospatial component. It allows for a substantial amount of bells and whistles. I can get into that and ask our executive director of this and i can ask the o. E. S. Director to fill in the blanks, but it allows us to meet the challenges and the needs of a multiplicity of issues that we face when it comes to mercy planning in the state. This is a big deal. I appreciate the reference that this is about lives because quite literally this is going to save lives. Im proud of the legislature including the by partisans. Final word on this topic, there is a fee attached. I know that generates headlines. We are still among the lowest in the nation in terms of that new fee thats been established. I think thats a nice and important thing to point out. Usually were one of the highest in areas. This is where were among the lowest. So i know there was some anxiety related to that, but i hope that assuages some of those concerns. This, by the way, in closing, has been part, this announcement today, part of our week of announcements around Emergency Preparedness and planning. Yesterday i was up with governor schwartzeneggar. We were talking about some of the work were doing on vegetation management, prescribed burns, making sure were more resilient in 200 communities across this state. Were stepping up our game and getting more ready for Emergency Planning and preparedness. More than 1 billion has been spent to make sure california is more resilient and prepared than ever. Im grateful for the support we received up and down the state. Im grateful for the mayors leadership in this space. She was on the Fire Commission leading these efforts for many, many years and as conversant as any mayor in the state of the needs and desires not only of her constituents, but as it relates to the need to update these technologies and recognizes she cant do it alone. The state needs to do their part and were honored to now be doing our part in this space. Were grateful for that. Were also grateful for you being here and happy to answer any questions on topic. Then we are happy for any questions for mayor breed off topic. Any questions on this subject . Reporter question i was just wondering what you observed in your tour today . To be honest with you, a lot of familiarity, and i think that goes to the reality. We were talking to the o. E. S. Director and asked how does this compare and contrast to other call centers up and down the state. It is put in the top tier, but that bar is not as high as it can be. At the end of the day that capacity is limited because of resources. Our new fee will generate 175 million a year. It will allow the services to go in around october. Well start implementing these new tools and technology up and down the state. Thats what was missing, that state support. This will allow you know better than i the capacity to do things you are losing sleep over currently and do it in the next few months. This is going to move pretty quickly. August 20th were going to identify these vendors. And as soon as october, right, were going to start seeing the application of this promise and promotion. Anybody . Im going to hang out more in San Francisco. [ indiscernible ] i shouldnt say that. She never speaks anyway. I actually sleep pretty well because i compartmentalize as well. As an example, one of the technologies that we all use every day to grab an uber and your uber can find you in a moment or even ordering a pizza, that kind of technology for us when calls come in has not been available to us until really the last few months. And after extensive effort to work with Third Party Vendors who are helping to kind of pull this data together. A lot of it has to do with the state of our technology, which makes it a lot harder. Moving from this analog to a more digital level is going to make that Technology Much more accessible to us, so that we can use that type of quick information that you use to catch a ride or to get your lunch to get help to you, whether its Law Enforcement or a medical response or fire. So it just speaks to the ability to have access to this kind of Technology Much quicker. We alone would have been able to go to. Secondly, this is probably just as important, this will provide us with a lot more resiliency and redundancy. The governor explained a little bit and mayor breed about how this allows us to have more mutual assistance between other jurisdictions and their 911 centers because we dont have to put everything in a suitcase and walk across the street. Well be able to flip a switch and work out so that if we have an earthquake or a potential power outage thats extensive, we very quickly will be overwhelmed at our center. So this allows us to go to other jurisdictions who can pick up and get those calls and make sure help is getting to people when they need it in the time they need it. You mentioned the fee. What is the fee and who pays it . Its going to be one flat fee across the board. We have multiple fees right now. 0. 33. We are authorized to go higher. We are very confident that we will not need to go to what is authorized, which is closer to 0. 80. 0. 33 puts us on the lower tier. Current landline users are paying 0. 50. That will use to 0. 33. A disproportionate amount of smartphone use is text and data, not voice. So we have a system thats collapsing in terms of its funding capacity, and thats why we have been struggling to get this up in sacramento. Fortunately we were able to get it in the budget. We had a few supporters from north state that experienced the ravages of mother natures fury as it relates to the campfire, and i think that really truly brought home this reality and need. So i just want to acknowledge them because they did something within that party that often is not done when encouraged to do the right thing despite the political consequences. I couldnt be more proud of those two individuals as well as the others in the legislature who supported this. The first day in the nation since 1973 that mandated 911. We have lost our leadership a bit. Were now going to reassert our leadership. 27 Million People use this system. We have 1. 4 i think just here in San Francisco. You drop even for a minute the calls, that literally puts lives at risk. So it is not, again, an exaggeration at all. This is a lifesaving fee that will go a long way to making california more resilient, more capable in emergency environment to do justification to it, that is to have someone to answer the phone in an emergency 24 hours a day, seven days a week. [ indiscernible ] those companies are competing for these contracts, so all of this is in collaboration and partnership with those companies. Well see. I dont know who will wind up winning these business, but theres some wellknown brands in the state that are competing. I dont know if you want to talk more about the deeper collaboration with Cellphone Companies or maybe just flesh out other attributes of this system very, very briefly. Sure. Thank you. In regards to the cellphones, what this will do is harden that 911 connection from our Community Member on the street, whether youre using a cellphone, your office phone, your home phone. That connection through your provider, thats up to that vendor to be able to harden their infrastructure. But once it recognizes that you have a 911 call, were going to create redundancy and resiliency in the network so it can get to our local dispatch center. Thats what our job is, to make sure that 911 call is received, routed to the appropriate peace app as quickly as possible. We believe it can be done in 3 seconds from the time you hit 911 to the time the dispatcher receives the call. Full disclosure these things will take a few years. They dont just happen overnight. By december 2022 it should be fully operational. [ ] hi, everyone. Im the executive director of the Richmond Neighborhood Center , and i want to welcome you all today. Thank you for coming
