Thank you our next speaker is dick morton. In and earlier remarks i mentioned that the plan that for deduction paper before us was overly board lacking deadline schedules clear of whats going on going on i appreciate the commissioners, i started to drill down get some answers for a change out of the staff presentation but i also shire commissioner caens inquire about almost the lack of emergency or urgency remember this was brought up a sobering moment january of 2014 13 months later were beginning to talk about this is the first time ive heard of the wonderful word yet thats may impression by talking to replenishing that design would be in construction last summer were just getting to it is very themselves with were moving along with a steady pace or not moving at all emergency plan is not called for by bosco we dont know whether the Drought Conditions that provide surplus water we have other agencies that are desperate for water right now and i guess my last comment as nicole mentioned none of the documents were available for review she says this morning we got a copy of American People emergency plan that didnt give adequate time for us to elevate chastises going on therefore i suggest that the Commission Schedule this item for a month from now everybody including you have a change to read the document and formulate good questions. Thank you for your comments. I would like to add something as president of this commission i think we have a very, very fine utility reis a very long staff extraordinarily general manager and great confidence in our general manager and his staff so i dont really doubt any of the information i get from them but, of course im speaking for might have now but im sure high fellow commissioners feel the same thing were very proud to have to represent this utility and have the staff we do with that, any other comments . From the public . Can i make a comment. I really appreciate the vote of confidence but as reagan trust were verified i think we are definitely transparent and have a track record on the Water Improvement Program and track records on other programs have no problem of highlighting this project and putting it in schedule in the progress against it so what well do is move forward putting a more detail project description a schedule and we can as part of maybe part of cycle well report open the mountain tunnel that will make everyone happy i mean helpfully improvement all right . Good does that conduct our report. That concludes my report. I have a request for a break so we will reassume this meeting at 20 after, sir. Okay were going back in session the next item is item 8.

Between the city and county of San Francisco and the and the modesto city. Commissioners barbara the general manager with water and power im sure youre aware of well have a long time relationship with modesto and aware of expiration on july of this year weve been in negotiation with modesto and understand the party maturing need more time to arrive at a contract and this extends the cellist arrangement for one year. Item 10 it the same for thank you, your honor look so, please call item 10 as well. Good suggestion. Thank you. Item 10 approve an exception agreement with the turlock. It is the same any questions. Ill move approval. Okay should the public my comments on this brooks. Yeah. Eir brooks San Francisco our green party and clean emergency advocates it so you would it is the direction it is headed but i, of course, urge you to reserve as much of hetch hetchy power to San Francisco as possible in the agreement because especially with the drought we need to be conscious of the need to provide some hetch hetchy to clean power sf if we can not only to mention other local programs like the colleges and hospital i urge you as commissioners to be as conservative with the hetch hetchy power we send to other places. This is activity tilt part of the Business Plan coupling. And the operations there is some amount of power we have an obligation to make availability and hetch hetchy power this is staying here thats part of the presentation on the Business Plan. I have a question for ms. Hale arrest the m iv and ti v weve had issues in the past with the agreement have we not are those issues. Weve had issues in the past in the more recent timeframe weve not had issues operations have been smooth. So a we have a motion on the floor all in favor, say i. I opposed . The motion carries next item. Item 11 the preliminary official establishment for the water bonds to fund and invited principle amount of 48 million. Mr. Pearl is here to address this i want to ask the staff about the general some things are complicated and if we get a red line struck out for the capitalization and points of sewss it is hard to get to the nut of it we end up with 3 points that are important and didnt talk about those and this red line you have to search for that i ask the staff to do a better job and where there is part of introduction material a summary of the issues so it we at least know where to go if we have additional questions this is a request but this item identified the changes of significance in the o s to make sure to highlight and give us an explanation of the changes. Charles i object to do that in the staff report weve highlighted the preliminary official statement sorry first back up in december the Commission Approved the 30 years documents for the first unarchitectural bond sale were going to bring those bonds to the market next week hallelujah i cant since then getting the approvals through the board of supervisors and this document it is before you today is a revised Disclosure Document in talking about who we have and our consumers and that sort of thing we dont typically bring u bringing up e bring those documents back but this is the First Issuance of the power bonds we want to be careful and open and transparent so thats the nature of bringing this document back in terms of of the highlight i have one slow down to share if we go to the slide the changes that have occurred since december if you go to the slides please. Ill Start Talking about the changes since december we would with the approval the debt lives policies weve incorporated the concept of green bonds as a designation within our debt policies and so what weve done is decided to separate interest traction into one the green designation primarily funding the Green House GasFree Generation projects and the second series about not have the green designation those funds will be used for the transition partially because of the policies the Commission Approved but we want to be sure that the designation of the greenness so to speak low survive that so we wanted to make sure that the green designation was very clear for the Generation Assets and for the transition those assets are used in potentially a different way it is one of experiencing caution with the green designation we very much support the green bond designation that will be about 32 or 34 million of the overhead issuance so green designation. Additional disclosures related to the capitol plan you Financial Plan you approved in february of this year we updated the numbers to incorporate that in terms of the drought continuing updated information regarding that and the Community Irrigation program now getting kicked off that timeline has been added and the prop 26 legal case which was caught of the california board of appeals this year and it as a result reminder prop 26 convict approved and it interprets the rates and fees to the service so were being careful with the disclosure and this is a distinction between that case and the city and county of San Francisco but, of course a new supervisor added to the team as well as a new commissioner as well as new staff and so all of those information has been priority were two additional pipers that were added those are new and improved information which will go into this document before we post the first one starts with page 36 at the bottom relates to the historic hetch hetchy litigation that i believe was actual weve been served with that lawsuit but regardless we wanted to disclosure this to those the community and then lastly on our agenda our schedule to take action on a supplemental to fund the working capital for the agreeing gas station well add that should you take action im available to answer any questions. Questions. Yes. Prop h heros how does that relate to the proposition h to allow us to issue bonds. This is sorry this authorization that you are moving forward with today is related in that the power enterprise pledges its revenues to fund the repayment of the bonds and the debt service on the bond this authorization sort of stands on his own the proposition you referred to was voter enacted and stand strait sprat and those bounds those are will be an additional authorization. Root power and no idea a streamline to repay. Thats correct. And why are we not using those instead of those. We wanted to first of all again, this authorization is trying to create an have you an opinion that similar no nature to water and sewer a similar story so we came to talk about the authorizing documents we wanted to make sure those documents are similar in nature proposition h you referred to you building an authorization related to Energy Efficient bond authorization we could use it authorization we wanted to go counsel a separate road related to the bond issuance for the power enterprise similar is to the water and sewer. The proposition h had to do with renewables so this Power Generation piece i understand the argument you want to create uniform you know story and discussion and revenue streaming among the enterprises bus could those periods a green bonds you classified them as up country Power Generation would it be explicitly im thinking about flexibility as we sounds like we will repay those to the revenue well be generating with the retail customers were bringing online and customers yes and could cca about or be a source of revenue to repay. Thats one of the customers were selling energy to. It the not up country power. It is specific the projects with those bonds in front of the you today theyre related to the energy of the up country so those are where did fund go and the other authorization in the past can be used in the future circumstances well bring those forward when that makes sense. As part of the Business Plan of the cca a determination to use prop h bonds as we got to the build out strategy would we be faced with the decision whether to use the prop h bonds versus the green bonds. Well come forward with the loaded costs thats key and just what is the sort of easy bottom to persian if the authorization is in place and been a track record of past bond issuance thats the road well go down, however, a investedenter interest to use the prop h proposition well use that. Last question so to establish credit thats part of goal; right . ; right . Allowing how long dont that take once we issue those and start paying back the bond. Given the Credit Rating from the agencies is the first step weve received one rating yesterday from the double a plus rating were still waiting on s p 500 well see a sense of the credit it is comparing to our wastewater enterprise and once we get the rating and pricing well get a sense of the market responsive to us selling bonds to the Investment Community how many bids and general interests in our names asia a credit those things are important when we poise together the concept of credit. I think it is exciting thank you work. Has the drought been a issue. We want to obeying be careful that the financial enterprise are clearly delineated in the document and in the current year weve shared with this with you they have been lower enterprises to the generating activities to the lower Power Generation that has an implication in the current year we didnt plan for the drought activities over in return we planned on a normal year and adjust management decided as that becomes clear. Any other questions commissioners . Oh any comments if the public . Mr. Brooks. Eir brooks San Francisco clean emergency green party and sf. I want to clarify i think staff needs to take a look at the prop h that was passed by the voters in 2001 their that correct as the commissioner pointed out the h Bond Authority was passed but the voters so the board of supervisors could pass bonds for roushl emergency 0 projects which can include Energy Efficiency without going to the voters the voters westbound saying you dont need to come back for Revenue Bonds for clean energy staff needs to look at when deciding what bonds you know do the sfpuc bonds need to go to the voters if not thats great as staff said which bonds have better returned just politically chronologies are are the best way to fund any given system prop h is not just for sf i urge staff to drill down into that and right away raw were weve got a double a rating and the first rating from the power issued bonds thats huge and the reason the sf bond power advocates aligned with you and your staff to help you to push for raising your rates because they were so low for city facilities and hospitals and things like that so the sfpuc could get the bond rating for the clean power sf were happy to see this day this is a powerful moment for the enterprise thank you. If i can add one clarifying thing proposition h was for the voter that Gave Authority to the city those documents are different those are a contract to whoever bows the bonds well have to have bonds were mixing apples and oranges in that discussion this format will be the same format so it advances that but certainly to the preclude using h bonds and didnt reflect on that at all. Jason fried is staff i want to mention i wont go into everybody everything you have prop b that was passes you have an extra mechanism thats not tubed so prop h but participation to the prop b that was similar to prop h there are multiple things the voter approved for the city an
