for a renewal lease, at&t has
been on the site since 1996.
They've been in a hold-over
situation for many years.
It was a first initial
initiated by the former director and then the building was under the jurisdiction of the fire department and did not know if they wanted a telecommunication's site on top of their building. Then jurisdiction switched to
department of homelessness and negotiations continued. We fine claim
finally came to an agreement
in 2016 on the cost of the lease
of the base rent, which stated is $7,969 a month and that's
based on their square footage,
and they added three antennas and basically updated their equipment that stayed within the

as stated. >> thank you very much.

>> I'm here to represent a grant
to the department of public health that comes to us by way
of the supplier of our electronic health record
platform epic systems.
Annually, epic reviews customers
who work in the safety net and
makes determinations through
their charitable fund of who
might be worthy of annual gifts
and in this case, we were selected. We probably were selected
because we are new to the
platform and we're a significant safety net customer of the organization and just as a reminder, we went live on the
epic platform not even a year
ago, August 3, 2019 and we've actually made extensive use of that platform here in our covid-19 response.
I would also just like to make a
note that we expect to use the
funds from this gift to continue
enriching the training and learning of all of the analysts
and clinicians who use the epic platform.
So we hope to reinvest this directly back into what we're doing with regard to the use of this new information system.
And I do want to make note that
I believe this action is
retroactive and my apologies for
that. We obviously have had a lot of things going on.
I'm speaking to you from our

listening and I am representing
the mayors office of housing and community development and
supporting the soma community
stabilization fund, cac for the last 14 years.
So as you know, the fund was created in 2005.
We didn't get any funding until
the 2010 because of the recession and now we are almost
at ten years and our intention
is to do a comprehensive assessment of the funds to date.
As you know, the soma fund was primarily funded through impact
fees coming from link-con hill
and we were also added to the
central soma plan and we will be receiving additional 45 million
in fees from that plan and before we receive those monies,
the plan is to conduct a new strategic plan to guide the expenditures that will be coming
from the central soma plan and before we do that, we feel it is
important to do a comprehensive strategic assessment of what
we've done so far.
It's including the investment
and the role in influencing policy and also including how
well we've been able to foster coordination among community-based organizations to mitigate the impact of the development that's happened in the neighborhood and prevent the displacement of residents and
small businesses. >> ok, any comments or questions from my colleagues?

I wanted to talk about the stabilization fund and support it partnership . I think it's important to document how the city, mayor's office and cac has supported the market and its residents. The community has in the past
and continues to experience
destabilization and due to real
estate speculization, it will be
how they stabilized this expect,
mostly of immigrants and it is
encouraging collaboration.
i believe they will gain insight
from their residents. (Indies

and I'm a part of the proposed assessment team executive wanted
and I wanted to make myself available to answer
any questions you might and provide information about the
reason why I'm excited to become
involved with this program.
I've had some involvement with the summer community fund
through a periphery role and
have developed some
relationships with some of these organizations that have provided
me with the opportunity to really see this is kind of the perfect time to do an assessment like this.
There's a lot of knowledge within the community that would
be helpful to be shared with the broader community and especially
when considering to continue programs like this on a
stabilization fund. That's all I have to say. Thank you.
>> next speaker, please.
>> good morning, supervisors.
I'm with the united players and
I am soma respect. Resident. You urge you to support this
request.

>> good morning. I'm behalf of the san francisco international airport.
Item number 6 requests approval
of modification number 5 to an existing project management
support service's contract with pgh wong and partners for the
airport's courtyard project to
increase the contract amount by $7.5 million. the services includes in this contract are design and
construction management, project controls, contract administration, cost estimating, lead commissioning, yield
inspections and that material's testing and this contract is the
result of the 2017 competitive request for proposal's process.
The budget for the project management support services has

budget amount of $11.5 million
to $17.25 million for an
additional -- which includes infrastructure requirements, a
new elevator cap, net zero
energy initiatives, special system's room, infrastructure relocation and an upgrade of selected systems.
This also includes the interim relocation of the airport security operation's center and
communion's center. Communication's center.
As with other projects before this city, the airport has
evaluated the courtyard project that it will not be suspended due to the name of this facility.
The airport staff have
identified 35% of the remaining capital improvement program
budget and this 35% will be suspended for six months while
we look to a financial recovery
as a result of the influx from
the covid-19 public health emergency. The budget analyst office has reviewed this in modification and recommends approval and I would be happy to answer any questions you might have. >> thank you. Any comments or questions from my colleagues?
seeing none, could we please
have a vote.
>> good morning, can you hear me?
>> yes, we can, thank you, Miss Campbell.
>> I'm with the budget office
and following up on what
Miss Weidner said, this includes
an existing agreement with the airport for services for the courtyard to reconnect their project.
It does not change the term but
increases the amount by
7.5 million from 9.5 million to 17.2 million and the reasons for the increase are coo
due to an increase in the overall scope of
the project management services.
We do summarize on page 3 of our report, the total budget over
the remaining term -- or over
the total term of the agreement of 17.2 million is shown on page
5 and details on the increase of 7.5 million are on page 6.
Based on representations of the
airport is in need, we do recommend approval.

number one for the international
terminal and luxury stores
between dss group and the city
for the base rent under
lease-for-lease ending on December 31st to commend board approval.
Members the public who wish to
provide public comment call

Please wait until the next has indicated you have been un-muted to begin your comments. >> thank you very much.
We have, again, Miss Kathy weidner. >> thank you. Kathy weidner for the san francisco international airport.
This item seeks approval for the first modification to an
existing lease with dfs group to suspend the minimum annual
guarantee rent of $42 million and allow for payment of
percentage rent equal to 33% of gross revenues for the remainder of lease year one which is
through December 31st, 20.
This is the result of a competitive request for proposal's process and originally approved by the board
of soup stores in 2018 for 12
facilities totaling 46,295
square feet with an initial term
of 14 years and a minimum annual guarantee rent of $42 million a year.
dss is a partnership because the
dss group and five federally -- federally certified airport, disadvantaged business enterprised owners.
Dss has been operating under an initial development period during which stores are
renovated and rent is held at
30% of gross revenues and this ended on March 31st,
initiating the base year, 14-year term rent with the full
rent of $42 million a year.
Prior to the declaration of the covid-19 public health emergency
in the united states, dss was
seeing a significant decrease in passenger traffic in sales and
china dealt with the financial impacts of the global pandemic.
Under the proposed amendment for
lease year one, dss would be
temporarily suspended and would
pay a percentage rent of 33% of gross revenues.
At this time, we do believe that
for lease year two, dss group
would revert to paying the
greater of the mag on gross revenues. However when , there May be a time
when a rent release payment for all airport professions is
appropriate given the projected financial recovery timeline for some of the financial impacts. If that were to be the case, we
would return to the board for the lease year two, if there was any modification. The budget analyst's office has reviewed this modification and recommends approval and I would
be happy to any questions.
>> I see supervisor walton in
the queue.
Indiscernible: . >> are there other vendors that are looking to renegotiate the same terms with? >> so at this point, all airport
tenants are paying a percentage rent.
There is boilerplate language in
all concession leases that if it
falls below 80%, mags are suspended.
The percentage rent included in
the contract with 45% of gross revenues which we do not believe is financially feasible given the numbers that we're seeing.
So we're coming to you because
this is lowering that boiler plate language in that 33%. >> thank you very much.
And could we get the report
please, Miss Campbell? >> yes, members of the committee, this is the first
amendment to a concession agreement between the airport
and dcs group. It suspends the minimum guaranteed rent of 42 million
for the term from April 2020 to
December of 2020 and as Miss Weidner pointed out, there
is a percentage rent from 45% of
gross revenues to 33% of gross revenues expect reason for
and the reason for the percentage rent are summarized
on pages 11 and 12 of our report. Actual revenues anticipated by
the airport during the suspension period is about 11.3 million and based on representation by the airport,
we are recommending approval of the propose the resolution. >> thank you very much.
Madam Clerk, can we open this up for public comment. >> operation is checking to see

memo you received yesterday, the

Indiscernible: .
>> the healthy san francisco
program allows access to comprehensive health services in
san francisco for enrolled
participants and then the san francisco city option program
provides benefits to employees
whose employers are subjected to
the healthcare and meet their
spending requirements. The healthcare ordinance allowed the department of public health
to go out to bid -- I'm sorry,
not to bid, but -- well, to
contract out for third-party
administrative services.
We opted for the city program. And the reason that we did that
is because they were already
back since 1994, operating the
sanfrancisco medicale plan and they had all infrastructure in
place to to enable the
operations and administration of the third party --
administrative services.
So the three contracts before
you today are the -- these are ongoing services.
They're new contracts the first
one is a healthy san francisco administrative services and in that respect, they're doing all of the management. They're enrolling people into
the program, checking
eligibility and there's a customer service.
It's listed here and alice co
coniadi, the office for the
public health is on the phone
and can ask lots of specifics. So that's one contract.
It's the third-party for the
health san francisco program.
Within that program, enrollees
have an option to have different
providers networks and so -- and being served in those different provide networks that are not
just in the department of public
health and the healthy san francisco program reimbursing
the private providers, the
providers of care. If you're enrolled and
participating, your employer can make the ordinance which has
three options -- well, they can
buy insurance for you, just as we have through our own jobs
here with the government.
Also, there's three programs and
they can go into a reimbursement
account providing contributions
into the mra, medical reimburse
account that the employee uses
for their eligible expenses or opt into the healthy san francisco program and your employer would contribute to support the cost of your participation and then the third
option is newer. It was
mayor lee amend the ordinance as
a result affordable care act.
The third contract before you do
is 30 million, $357 is
is for operating
all -- managing the accounts, enrolling you and just enrolling
you and employees move around,
and so if you enroll or go to a
new job, you'll have a new
enrollment, but I think the
report -- the budget and legislative analyst did a nice job collecting all of this
information and so, it
essentially for the third party administrator services, they're doing enrollment, customer service and there's a lot of information technology that goes
along with managing the account.
And so that's the overview.
I will leave it there and if you have more specific questions
about how the programs work, or what the contracts are funding,
I'll turn that over to alice.
>> could we have the reports on
8, 9 and 10? >> each resolution approved
three new contracts between dph and the community by health authority for health san
francisco and the city option.
Item number 8 is for
35.3 million over five years for third-party administrator
services and item number 9 is
24.9 million over five years to administer provider payments and
then item number 10 is
49 million over five years to third-party administrative
services for the city option, which is to summarize some of these programs.
Tables 1-3 on our report on
pages 17 and 18 give the budget
to these contracts. Because these contracts are consistent with the healthcare ordinance, we recommend approval.
>> thank you very much. Let's open this up for public
comment for 8, 9 and 10. >> operation is checking to see
if there are any callers in the queue. Please let us know if there are callers that are ready and if
you have not done so, press star 3 to be added. For those on hold, continue to wait until the system indicates
you have been un-muted. Please let us know if there are any callers who wish to comment
on items 8, 9 and 10. >> there are no callers in the queue.
>> ok, thank you very much.
I just have one question and I think you can probably answer this.
So are these contracts identical, pretty identical to
the prior contracts and have the health authorities always been
the third-party administrators?
It sounds like that is so?
Indiscernible: . >> so the contracts have been
very similar to the past contracts and some of the activities are slightly different because every year we do different program initiatives, but the overall
