And then ill go into our presentation really quickly. But id like to assure you that through the transition period and we continue to be in this phase fsha has made great strides. As it relates to the severance of our staff, we have fully funded that severance payment. That severance payment is projected for the entire two phases. There are two phases in this process with the staff of about 5 million. And that cost will be fully funded by sfha. As it relates to the unfunded tension that has been mentioned sfha continues to work through its own Financial Resources to ensure that it is able to meet those obligations as well. And i believe that it will it gives a position to do so. As it relates to the shortfall numbers that were shared in the report at that time of 16 to 18 million, i would like to be able to say that at this point our projected shortfall is 9 to 10 million as a matter of fact for this coming calendar year because it runs on a calendar year as it relates to the voucher payments. The shortfall is 8 million. We have done extensive work with hud on projecting our budget. We have a specific twoyear tool budgeting tool that is used where we work very closely with hud. We know at any given time from month to month what our projected shortfall is, and hud has committed to ensure that they fund that shortfall. This calendar year our shortfall was actually 22 million. And the calendar year for funding of vouchers ends on december 31. All those funds have been in fact funded by hud. So i think as the budget legislative analysts have come in prior with their prior report and the condition of sfha as it relates to really not understanding what its financial position was at that time, how many vouchers it could actually put out on the street and its recordkeeping reporting memorandum any of themes was really truly in a poor state. Today it is much different than what it was a year ago, two years ago. I can assure you that at the chief audit executive. As it relates to the request, the four requests that we have fundamentally disagreed with, recommendations 4, 5 and 12, the fundamental disagreement with those recommendations are that hud and the state law requires that sfha remain a separate leet entity from the from the city and the county which established it. And so in the spirit of that law, we are responding accordingly. And as it relates to recommendation 11, moving sfha, transitioning its records to the city as it relates to the financial system, we fundamentally disagree because the system today does not have a module where it can handle rental agreements rental accounting as required by hud, as required by accounting standards as well. However, what id like to say is the agency is not totally in disagreement as it stabilizes, which is very important, it will reconsider how it can transition into the citys financial system. I meet biweekly with the controller and it is a constant conversation that he and i both have. So i definitely will say as it relates also to the request that the controller actually acts as the controller of sfha while its prohibited according to law, state law the controller and i do meet, and we do talk about the financial situation our position of the sfha as well as the fact that for the single audit, that must take place annually for the city, there is information about sfha in the single audit as well. So there will be many efficiencies gained with once the m. O. U. Is agreed upon and helping ensuring the sfha is financially sound. Its able to report as it should and have the internal controls required as well as the fact that ms. Campbell also mentioned that we have a financial contractor bdo and we too, when i say we too as the city auditor as the transition lead, working with the controller, it is agreed that the agency should have financial competent staff. And today there are financial competent city staff. Theyre working on the finance team and leading the finance of the agency and actually understanding and learning the nuances of housing financial accounting. Thank you so much for all of your work during this transition process. I did have a few questions about the ongoing shortfall. Can you just describe whats causing that . So when we think about the shortfall and we think about the city and county of San FranciscoHousing Authority, it is not any different than any other Housing Authority nationally. Every Housing Authority in the United States of america has a shortfall because hud only funds at a certain level, and it does not fund the entire rent for each unit. And what it does commit and ms. Campbell did mention that in her recommendation, about the need for the organization to understand what is the shortfall at any given period in time so that it could request those funding that funding mechanism through hud in a timely manner. And what sfha what we have failed to do is understand our books know our financial position at any given time so we can make that request to receive those additional funds. And so when we think about the city and county of San Francisco we know that we are one of the highestrent rent cities and counties in america. And with that in mind, hud only funds at a certainly level per unit. And we need to predict that as well as consider what is going to be the rent increase at any given time in each year and determine or estimate or project the month to month when rent increases will happen for all the varying units that we have vouchers. Though we have our rad pros that have projectbased vouchers and in those particular units are developments, we know when the rent generally the budget cycles from january through the full you are fully funded from january through the end of september. And if you miss those time periods of making that request then as an agency, you are left with trying to figure out how am i going to pay that cost. And today i can say that we are not going to have to pay that cost because our books are now in order, if you will. Im sorry. Im just trying to understand it and the implications for the potential ongoing Financial Support from the city for these programs. So once the shortfall is assessed and documented, you can request from hud to sort of cover that . Yes. So let me restate. On a monthtomonth basis we work with hud. We have a special team at hud that we are assigned to work with. So that we are discussing monthly what our shortfall is projected to be at any given time. And through their own process, they are setting aside those dollars specifically for the city and county of San FranciscoHousing Authority to ensure they are making a concerted effort and commitment that we will receive those funds. As an example, again this year we had a 22 million shortfall. And throughout the entire year, it was known that we would have that 22 million shortfall and those funds were committed to the Housing Authority, and they have been paid to ensure that the agency did not have to figure out how to meet those obligations or even come to the city for those funds. And thats the continued process. And as it relates to the tool, this is a little more detailed than maybe you would like to have. But as it relates to the budget tool that we use that tool has been designed specifically to deal with the different attributes that the city and county deals with as it relates to the high rent cost and so forth and on. Great. Just one question on this. Yes. So that sort of ongoing shortfall figure that the budget and legislative analyst presentation cited, 16 million to 18 million annually your 2031 and that looks like a figure from the Housing Authority financial consultant. You mentioned you feel like its a lower amount. But whatever the amount, is that amount eventually going to get paid back . Paid by hud . Or is that an annual amount that the city is going to have to to answer your question no the city will not have to pay those funds. And that amount is much lower than what has been projected at that time by the bla in its report. Today we say that that amount is anywhere from 8 9 to 10 million annually, which will be funded by hud. Its a commitment from hud to do so. And that commitment is made on the basis of all the work that we have done collectively, hud and sfha together to design a tool that will help us all know where we are at any given time in terms of costing of our units. And im very confident about the numbers. And im very confident about the work and the tools that have been designed to actually project out these numbers. And this tool and this work has also been vetted at the National Level of hud as well. And on top of that on a monthly basis since ive been there i meet monthly with the regional director of hud going through the various reporting mechanisms that we need to as an agency and ensuring that we are tracking things appropriately and we really are on point with our Financial Reporting and understanding our financial position and the number of vouchers that we can actually issue and so forth and on. So we really have a set of really good processes and controls in place that i believe are sustainable. Thank you so much thank you. Supervisor brown, do you have anything . We were just presented some amendments to the resolution approving the m. O. U. For the Housing Authority transition. I was wondering if somebody from the Mayors Office of housing might want to go over the amendments to the resolution. So the redline amendments to the resolution first clarification of the Housing Voucher Program as its known commonly as section 8 program and collectively under on page 3, whereas sfha will implement a transfer of the site to developers, this makes reference to hope sf and collectively those are called developments. And they are under a development agreement. And also a Master Development agreement. So those clarifications were added. More significantly theres language beginning on page 5 that makes clear that the board of supervisors may by ordinance declare itself to the board of commissioners. And also there is now reference as was mentioned earlier during the discussion during the bla report that the mayor was submitted a letter in which she confirms she will make three appointments to the board of commissioners based on the recommendations from the board of commissioners. Excuse me board of supervisors. And the board of supervisors desires to make such recommendations to assist the oversight of sfha. Continuing on page 6 there is a reference to the already approved Master Development agreements. Those were approved by the board of supervisors and board of commissioners some years ago and those are still in effect. And then just some cleanup language in the subsequent whereas clause stating that the m. O. U. Will enable the Housing Authority through the sfha default and reorganize the Housing Authority consistent with the letter and the memorial letter. Thank you. Are there any members of the public that would like to testify on these items . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Id move that we approve the amendments as presented. And i move that we move this item to the full board with positive recommendation without objection. Thank you. Mr. Clerk, please call items 10, 11 and 12 for closed session.

There is now no further business. Thank you. We are adjourned. Hi. I am cory with San Francisco and were doing stay safe and were going to talk about what shelter in place or safe enough to stay in your home means. Were here at the urban center on Mission Street in San Francisco and joined by carla, the Deputy Director of spur and one of the persons who pushed this shelter in place and safe enough to stay concept and we want to talk about what it means and why its important to San Francisco. As you know the bay area as 63 chance of having a major earthquake and its serious and going to impact a lot of people and particularly people in San Francisco because we live on a major fault so what does this mean for us . Part of what it means is that potentially 25 of San Franciscos building stock will be uninhibit tabl and people cant stay in their homes after an earthquake. They may have to go to shelters or leave entirely and we dont want that to happen. We want a building stock to encourage them to stay in the homes and encourage them to stay and not relocate to other locations and shelters. Thats right so that means the Housing Needs to be safe enough to stay and we have been focused in trying to define what that means and you as a former Building Official knows better than anybody the code says if an earthquake happens it wont kill you but doesnt necessarily say that can you stay in your home and we set out to define what that might mean and you know because you built this house were in now and this shows what its like to be in a place safe enough to stay. Its not going to be perfect. There maybe cracks in the walls and not have gas or electricity within a while but can you essentially camp out within your unit. Whats it going to take to get the Housing Stock up to this standard . We spent time talking about this and one of the building types we talk about was soft story buildings and the ground floor is vulnerable because there are openings for garages or windows and during the earthquake we saw in the marina they went right over and those are very vulnerable buildings. Very and there are a lot of apartment buildings in san that that are like that. And time to. Retrofit the buildings so people can stay in them after the earthquake. What do they need . Do they need information . Do they need incentives . Mandates . Thats a good question. I think it starts with information. People think that New Buildings are earthquake proof and dont understand the performance the building will have so we want a transparent of letting people know is my building going to be safe in it after an earthquake . Is my building so dangers i should be afraid of being injured . So developing a ranking system for buildings would be very important and i think for some of the larger apartment buildings that are soft story we need a mandatory program to fix the buildings, not over night and not without financial help or incentive, but a phased program over time that is reasonable so we can fix those buildings, and for the smaller soft story buildings and especially in San Francisco and the houses over garages we need information and incentives and coaxing the people along and each of the owners want their house to be safe enough. We want the system and not just mandate everybody. Thats right. I hear about people talking about this concept of resiliency. As youre fixing your knowledge youre adding to the city wide resiliency. What does that mean . Thats a great question. What spur has done is look at that in terms of recovery and in new orleans with katrina and lost many of the people, hasnt recovered the building stock. Its not a good situation. I think we can agree and in san we want to rebuild well and quickly after a major disaster so we have defined what that means for our life lines. How do we need the gasolines to perform and water perform after an earthquake and the building stock as well, so we have the goal of 95 of our homes to be ready for shelter in place after a major earthquake, and that way people can stay within the city. We dont lose our work force. We dont lose the people that make San Francisco so special. We keep everybody here and that allow us to recover our economy, and everything because its so interdependent. So that is a difficult goal but i think we can achieve it over the long time so thank you very much for hosting us and hosting this great exhibit, and thank you very much for joining welcome. Were glad you are here. This is the regular meeting of the board of education. The San FranciscoUnified School District. Today november 12th, 2019. This meeting is now called to order.
