Clerk item 56 is a resolution to declare november 20, 2019 world childrens day in the city and to affirm the city and countys commitment to the United Nations convention of the rights of children. President yee colleagues, let me indulge you a little bit for a moment here. I believe this is the first time this body has voted on such a resolution to acknowledge the world childrens day which lands on tomorrow, on november 20 of every year. This year marks the 30th anniversary of the United Nations convention of the rights of children which provides basic human rights principles that ensures that every child is protected from violence and poverty. But beyond that, it provides this very basic notion that children deserve to have their voices heard as part of any community or governing structure. Of all the United Nation members, the United States is the only one to have not to not have ratified the convention of the rights of children. I think all of you i want to thank all of you for joining as cosponsor, and i guess, if i can, have officially have supervisor walton and supervisor safai join us also, for this important resolution to on call out the importance of this convention. But to also motivate to us to become what is globally known as a child friendly city. A child friendly city is a concept that is trying to challenge the realization of the rights of children in an increasingly urbanized and decentralized world. What we are also seeing is that climate change, we need to start designing cities that are environmentally resilient, and that is what child friendly cities are all about, a city designed with children and youth in mind is a city that is sustainable and safer for all residents. Last year, i attended the child safer city conference in vienna, austria, and heard about all the wonderful things cities like San Francisco were doing all over the world. But what i found so fascinating is that cities were reimagining public spaces to be playful, imagin imagi imaginative and accessible to children of all ages. Can we imagine what San Francisco would be like if we placed children at the center of all the decisions that wed be making, influencing the build environment around us. Imagine every city street where a children could bike and walk on their own to School Without fear of being hurt in a dangerous environment. Imagine every new housing unit being designed so that families of all types to could expand multigenerational units that accommodated children, growing teens, and parents who are care giving. Imagine public space being inviting to children so they could actively and creatively explore beyond just the confines of parks and playgrounds. The possibilities are endless, but we need to make this conscious decision that child friendly city is what we aim to be. Over the course of past years, we have been able been part of these discussions with planning to push for Family FriendlyDesign Guidelines fashioned around vision zero, but i want to think bigger. I want to thank our department of children, youth and families, our youth council, our department of public works and rec and park for helping us move this conversation along. I also want to acknowledge parents who have come together to really galvanize around this effort. Parents like serina unger who i believe made a Statement Today in public testimony who is an urban planner by profession but was so passionate about this idea of child friendly future, she has taken it upon herself to present this idea to many, many groups who would listen. The other aspect of the child friendly city which i believe is so incredibly incredible is the idea that children and youth should be participating in meaningful ways in decision making. I know we do a great work with the Youth Commission and many of our own districts have Youth Councils like in district 7. But the child friendly city pushes this further. It is about ensuring that every child, even preschool age residents, should be able to engage and provide input on what they want to see in their livedin environments. Yesterday, the Youth Commission voted to support our resolution and also asked for a friendly amendment which i have distributed to all of you, and ill talk about it in a second. As a city, we have always placed the needs of communities most impacted by our environmental, racial, and economic injustice at the forefront. They are they are asking us to to really include the need to explicitly prioritize the need of black and brown communities in addition to other communities with high needs. In all my years as a parent and educator, i have never been more obsessed about a concept like this. I really hope that we as a city can pursue this idea. As a grandparent, i want San Francisco to become the place that my children can grow up and establish their roots. When i see all this new development and all these millennials, i am praying that they will choose to stay here. When we lose the children, we lose the vibrancy and diversity of our community. The stakes are high. The resolution is calling on San Francisco to rise to the occasion and help us become a part of this global child friendly cities movement. I think we are ready and we can possibly become the first in the United States. So i want to point out again it was the Youth Commissioners who advocated for the amendments, and i totally agreed with them. So basically, were adding on page 5, line 16, to include the wording, particularly marginalized black and brown children and youth. So thats my motion. Could i have a second on that . Thank you, supervisor peskin. Without any objection, then, the motion passes, then, for the amendment. [gavel]. President yee so madam clerk, what do i do . Clerk you can take it without objection as amended or same house, same call as amended. President yee okay. Can i have this same house, same call as amended . Without objection, this item passes unanimously. [gavel]. President yee so madam clerk, i think thats the end of our agenda, but please read the in memoriams. Clerk todays meeting will be adjourned in memory of the following beloved memorials. On behalf of supervisor mandelman, on the late jack porter, and on a motion made by the president and on behalf of the entire board of supervisors, on behalf of the late atta safai. President yee okay. Colleagues, that brings us to the end of our agenda. Please have a safe travel. I will see you in a few weeks. Madam clerk, is there any further business for today . Clerk that concludes our business for today. President yee so we are adjourned. [gavel] good morning, everyone, my apologies for being late. The meeting will come to order.

Clerk the Community Choice aggregation activities report. Chairperson fewer i believe that mr. Michael hyams is here from cleanpowersf. And is suzanne here . No, suzanne is not here today. Shes off today. Just me. Chairperson fewer well, thank you. I have a whole bunch of my colleagues out there too supporting. Chairperson fewer hi, colleagues upon. You might hear some woots. [laughter] good morning. Commissioners and supervisors, michael hyams, cleanpowersf from the San FranciscoPublic Utilities commission. For the clean power s. F. Update ill cover three areas, provide sort of our usual enrollment and Service Statistics update. And im going to cover some broad categories what has been happening since we were last here. And i should say a bit of whats been happening because a lot has been happening. And also some key things that are coming up in the next couple months. And if i could get the slides, thank you. So with respect to enrollment statistics, cleanpowersf continues to provide service to customers successfully. And our program percentage 3. 6 since the Program Launch so we have a retention rate still of over 96 . And our super green upgrade is at 1. 8 . That represents more than 6,800 accounts that have signed up to receive 100 Renewable Power through cleanpowersf and theres been about 500 upgrades since august, to give you a perspective on how thats been growing. And now in the category of whats been happening, im really happy to be here to announce that cleanpowersf is an awardwinning program. And that last month the city was awarded the c40 citys bloomberg philanthropy award for the cleanpowersf program. The program was nominated by the mayors office. It connects 94 of the worlds leading cities to take bold action towards healthier and more sustainable future. And the award is a prestigious honor, and it provides International Recognition for San Francisco and other cities that demonstrate Climate Action leadership. C40 has received 195 Climate Action project submissions or nominations this year. And theyre evaluated on Climate Action, benefits, and innovation, governance and sharing and scaling potential. And San Francisco was only one of seven winners from across the globe. And that was announced at the c40 world mayors summit in copenhagen on october 10th. As you can see from this photo i had the great honor and privilege of collecting the award for the city. Chairperson fewer in copenhagen . Yeah, in copenhagen. Chairperson fewer yeah. Chairperson fewer someone has to do it. I dont know if you recognize that mayor from l. A. Who is now the chair of c40. And who presented the award to San Francisco. And cleanpowersf was selected as the winner in the category titled the future we want requires transformative change. Pretty bold there. And something that we certainly hope to live up to. Winning this award is, of course, a great honor. Its also a tribute to the great work done across the sfpuc and other city departments and the leadership here at lafco and the board of supervisors and the mayors office, and the tireless commitment of our city advocates that pushed for cleanpowersf over the years. So, anyway, some really good news and i wanted to share that with you. Chairperson fewer thats great. Did it come with monetary awards . No, it did not. It came with a very heavy award. Im trying to think of the right term. A trophy, i guess that you could say. Not a shiny one. If youre interested in seeing it i promise to bring it to the next lafco meeting but its heavy. And ive carried it a few miles. But, no, im really serious. If you want, i will bring it. So im also really happy to announce that were in the process of launching a new Budget Billing Program for cleanpowersf customers. This is an Optin Program to help customers to budget their utility costs by minimizing the Financial Impact of seasonal electricity usage variation in their monthly bills. Under budget billing will be participating customers will be billed based on an average of the past 12 months of customer usage to estimate a levellized bill for predictability. Currently when a pgn and e customer has signed up for the pg e program and joins cleanpowersf, the budget billing calculation only applies to the charges that pg e puts on the bill, and not the electric generation portion of the service that cleanpowersf provides. So offering this Budget Billing Program fills a really important gap in cleanpowersf service for customers also enrolled in pg e Budget Billing Program. Cleanpowersf is the first of the territory to offer this program. And were really proud about that. I think that we think that its just an important step towards delivering more Equitable Service to our customers. And we also hope that the work that we put into this will help other c. C. A. S in the territory to follow suit. This slide here is just to give you a quick illustration of what this looks like. The stacked bars in this chart represent what the average San Francisco residential customer pays per month on their electricity bill. The blue portion of the bar represents the pg e distribution charges. And the light portion of the bars represent the exit fee that pg e levies the c. C. A. Customers. And the dark green portion of the bar represents the cleanpowersf Electricity Supply charges, the generation supply. The yellow bar across the top represents what the monthly charges would look like under budget billing so you can see flat. And you can see too that theres that seasonal shape to electricity bills. And this is an average customer over the course of the year. Theres a dip in the summer, so San Franciscoians tend to use more power in the winter for lighting. We have less light. And some electric space heating as well and the increased usage. So our implementation is underway. Were conducting a soft launch of the program this month to a handful of customers that volunteered so that we can test our backend billing systems and data exchange. And then we intend to make the Program Available to all customers and begin marketing the program in january. Chairperson fewer other jurisdictions have done this also . No other c. C. A. S in california have done this. So were the first c. C. A. Program. Budget billing is not uncommon for utilities to provide and pg e has provided it in the past but we ran into billing system challenges in trying to get this off the ground previously. And there has been a lot of work put into to getting those systems in place to support the effort with our contractor, Calpine Energy solutions. So this sounds great. But its going to be optional . So a customer would have to opt in to the budget, yeah . Thats right. It is an optional program. It reminds me of a question. Were on an e. V. Rate plan and i notice that you guys made a change in or cleanpowersf had a change in the e. V. Rate plans recently on peak period versus offpeak. It seem seems tha
