Sorry briefly good morning chair farrell and supervisor tang and supervisor yee im the legislative aide to supervisor campos thank you for scheduling this item on todays agenda as you may know San Francisco voters passed property tax in 2015 to create legacy businesses and a Preservation Fund for social and currently significant those fund will help chinatown and cafe sanchez and others unfortunately due to a number of issues they did office of Small Business has not be able to disperse but my colleagues, can we take that same house, same call . Colleague will talk about that the 0 resolution will extend the deadline for office of labor standards enforcement for the september 30, 2016, to december 16, 2016, we thank you and ask you for forwarding those items to the full board with a recommendation. Good morning chair farrell and supervisor tang and supervisor yee regina the director of office of Small Business give you a little bit of background on expands on the information shes provided to hopefully address some of your questions so prop j was passed by the voters and established two grant to businesses or were refer to the legacy business the resolution before you is specifically in relation to the Small Business defined in a resolution the legacy business assistants Grant Program allows registered legacy businesses to annually apply for granted during july one and through september 30th and that has the proposition is written fund can be to people that submit applications during this period of time weve had a slow start to the program and underway the Small Business commission has directed the department the office of Small Business to extend the filing period from october one to defenseless 2016 for those two reasons one as of monday october 3rd, 24 legacy businesses 34 businesses that will be in the legacy business registry were anticipating 23 more by december 16th with the intention of prop j we want to give overseeing businesses the opportunity to apply for the grant that the Small Business commission as of monday october 3rd will be finalizing the legacy business Grant Program application and guidelines and so because of this to this date between the july one and september 30th period which is the application filing period that application has not been available for businesses to be able to apply so weve not had any applications to the Grant Program and so while the Small Business commission can direct the department to extend the grant filing period it is only the board of directors that can authorize the department to disperse to the applications submitted during the extended filing period thats why this resolution it is doing should the board of supervisors approve that so like i said the resolution before you and upon the board of supervisors approval will authorize the Small Business commission to disperse fund from the one Million Dollars hfb account the board of supervisors allocated in the 20162017 budget to the department so the dispersed upon the approval of this resolution the office of Small Business will disperse fund to approved applications between october 1st and december 15th just to be clear were not spoke e seeking additional funding through this resolution ill be happy to answer any questions you may have. Thank you supervisor yee. Thank you regina just to be clear were extending the filing period for legacy businesses the question is that going to postpone giving any funding to ones that have already met the deadline. No because we are just now going to be approving the application Application Form and guidelines to the legacy business Grant Program there are currently no applications that were submitted between july one and september 30th to so the answer no delay no applications submitted to what were doing by extending the timeline is allowing those businesses that have been placed on see registry and those to be placed on the registry by september 15th to be able to apply for the funding. Thank you. Supervisor tang. Sorry thank you and just to refresh my memory was it the staffing funding. That was in the 16, 17 and then you reauthorized the staffing funding for in the 15, 16 and reauthorized in the 20162017 budget so currently historic Preservation Fund accountability the one Million Dollars you authorized with the 20162017 budget i think the supplemental you may be referring to the supplemental heard before this committee for the 20152016 budget those because theyre not reactivated my understanding those funds did not get put into the Historic Preservation commission account. So thats what were essentially trying to do here today. No, no, no what this resolution is specifically requesting you have to authorize our department to disperse my funding to the legacy business Assistants Program to any plagues that were received after october 30th the way the proposition is written were only authorized to disperse funding to applications received 2w7b july 1st and september 30th but because of delay start to the programming we were not able to one have applications ready for businesses to fill out thats why the commission directing us to extend the application filing period. Okay. Thank you. Does that answer your question so it is authorizing us to disperse the funds that were budgeted in the 20162017 account to this program after september 30th. Great, thank you. Supervisor yee. So the allocation was one Million Dollars at a time and the supplemental that we approved thats now seems like out of play was for what amount . I and that was specifically for the rent stabilization grant different from this resolution for the Business Assistance grant i dont remember that was 200 and something thousand so and just to be clear the one Million Dollars allocated to the historic Preservation Fund account we have yet to do specific allocations this is the first year of funding we want to make sure were appropriately allocating the right amount based the needs and well see that from the application purpose submitted this first time around. Great, thank you. Okay. Colleagues any future questions okay open up for Public Comment anyone wish to comment on item number 3 . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Colleagues, any questions or comments or motions no, go ahead and make a motion to pass this on to the committee with a positive recommendations to the full board.
