Description
San Bruno City Council Budget Study Session June 1, 2010
part 1 of 2
A
Lemare
remembers
the
City
Council
I'll
start
by
giving
a
brief
Department
overview.
The
Department
responds
to
all
hazards
in
this
in
the
community,
24-7
authorized
staff
and
current
authorized
staffing
for
the
department
is
33.5.
The
prop
Department
has
two
fire
stations:
station
51
and
El
Camino
station
52,
it's
Nathan
Earl.
We
operate
to
first
line
engines
and
one
truck
company.
All
apparatus
is
staffed
with
one
firefighter
and
two
one
fire
captain
two
firefighters
with
at
least
one
of
those
being
a
paramedic.
A
The
Department
responded
to
a
total
of
thirty
seven
3700
717
calls
for
service
in
2009
with
engine
51
being
the
third
business
is
engine
in
the
county
of
the
total
call
volume.
Fifty-Eight
percent
were
ems
type
calls
besides
emergency
response.
The
department
provides
prevention
services
that
include
fire
sprinkler
and
fire
alarm
plan
checks.
The
highly
successful,
auto
row,
inspection
program
mandated
occupancy
inspections,
hazard
analysis,
our
fire
company
inspection
program,
fire
investigation
in
public
education,
CPR,
AED
and
first
day
training
and
participate
with
the
other
departments
in
the
city's
emergency
operations
program.
A
Moving
on
to
shared
services,
as
the
city
manager's
alluded
to,
we
continue
to
share
the
fire
chief
and
battalion
chief
services
with
the
city
of
millbrae.
We
share
an
ems
and
operational
training
division
with
four
agencies,
with
a
prospect
of
one
more
agency
coming
on,
which
would
help
reduce
the
cost
to
San
Bruno's
contribution.
A
In
regards
to
the
implementation
study
that
we
have
scheduled
meeting
with
the
consultant,
the
city
manager's
for
june
fifteenth
in
the
meantime,
fire
bid,
managers
and
labor
and
met
to
discuss
their
strategy
as
far
as
budgets.
Adjustments,
thanks
to
the
vice
mayor,
I
was
advised
our
OES
budget
just
went
up
incremental
lead
this
year.
Paramedic
and
EMT
licensing
increases
due
to
the
switch
from
the
State
Fire
Marshal's
Office
back
to
the
county
will
increase
our
EMT
certifications
and
our
paramedic
licensing
grants.
A
We
did
receive
regional
grant
for
mobile
and
portable
radios
for
twenty
four
thousand
eight
hundred
dollars.
This
will
enable
us
to
meet
the
FCC,
narrowbanding
and
b25
requirement
by
2011.
We
still
need
to
install
mobile
status,
turnable
Xindi
engines
and
replace
this
fish
in
alerting
system
in
each
of
the
fire
stations
which
we
expect
to
cost
about.
Forty
three
thousand
dollars
we
just
were
also
notified,
receive
a
secondary
grant
for
rescue
equipment
on
the
amount
of
twenty
one
thousand
dollars.
A
We
did
receive
a
vendor
quote
for
replacement
apparatus
in
the
amount
of
five
hundred
and
forty
thousand
dollars
for
the
1988
reserve
engine
we
are
using
an
add-on
bid
or
a
piggyback
did
from
Portland
Maine
fire
department.
This
proposal
was
predicated
on
purchasing
a
tooth
7
diesel
motor
that
is
in
limited
supply
to
wait.
We
risk.
If
we
miss
that
model
engine,
we
can
expect
the
cost
of
the
above
the
motor
to
go
up
sixty
thousand
dollars.
This
is
mainly
due
to
the
mission
regulations
every
year
they
increasing
on
us.
A
We
have
deferred
this
purchase
for
over
a
year
and
we
anticipate
difficulty
servants
in
the
reserved
piece
of
apparatus
do
two
parts
asset
which
acquisition
the
apparatus
not
be
an
NFA
compliant
because
it's
an
open
cab
vehicle
and
the
reliability
just
a
touch
on
a
reorganization.
We
are
expecting
to
retirement
prior
to
the
first
of
the
calendar
year
when
battalion
chief
and
one
firefighter
position
will
be
vacated.
I
will
recommend
promoting
the
battalion
chief
position
and
leave
the
firefighter
position.
B
A
Until
the
final
analysis
of
the
implementation
study
is
completed,
as
the
city
manager's
indicated,
this
amounts
to
six
months
of
salary
savings
to
offset
this
vacancy
and
ensure
salaried
statements.
We
were
reassigned
the
fire
prevention
captain,
in
fact
operations
effect
of
July
one
and
in
matter
of
fact,
he
has
been
moved
back
to.
A
Earlier
this
will
give
us
full
staffing
on
all
three
shifts
for
the
first
half
of
the
year,
where
we
estimate
will
contain
overtime
costs,
some
of
the
impacts
regarding
the
reorganization
or
potential
revenue
loss
in
the
prevention
Bureau,
mainly
due
to
sending
out
plan
checks,
private
firm
for
compliance
review.
Only
other
portion
of
that
workload
can
be
assumed
by
the
fire
marshal
as
he
would
contrary
down
the
major
projects
and
mandatory
occupancy
event
inspections.
The
fireface
company
inspection
program
remains
in
to
be
in
place.
A
A
I've
noticed
that
training
the
conferences
have
been
reduced
to
include
man,
attire
training,
only
career
advancement,
training
will
be
the
responsibility
of
the
employee
and
I'll
hose
a
new
equipment
replacement
would
be
for
damaged
equivalent.
Only
that
pretty
much
concludes
my
presentation.
We
ought
to
answer
any
questions
to.
C
Just
a
couple
up
on
page
129
item
6401
City,
emergency
plan
training
and
instruction
last
year
was
4,000
the
it's
down
that
you're
asking
for
1000
I'm.
Just
wanting
to
know
that
it
is
that
enough
and
sufficient
for
whatever
training
is
required.
As
far
as
emergency
preparedness
and
other
aspects,
I
think.
A
C
A
D
D
Multiple
other
persons-
and
it
also
includes
anticipated
costs
associated
with
our
tuition
reimbursement
program
I
will
I
will
definitely
check
and
provide
additional
information
to
the
City
Council.
That
short
answer
to
your
question
is
that
we
contract
with
the
city
of
millbrae.
We
pay
them
in
a
a
dollar
amount
in
monthly
increments.
We
do
not
pay
any.
We
do
not
directly
pay
any
associated
salary
or
benefit
costs
for
the
fire
chief
position
under
our
existing
arrangement.
A
D
E
F
C
G
A
G
Great
and
then
a
little
further
down,
you
say:
evaluate
option
to
use
biodiesel
fuel
for
fire
apparatus.
So
would
you
go
back
when
you
talked
about
the
fire
apparatus?
It
you
feel
we
should
find
replace.
So
is
that
fire
apparatus
what
you're
looking
forward
to
use
biofuel
or
and
then
explain
again
you
were
saying
that
if
we
wait
and
we
get
higher
admission
controls
on
the
apparatus
and
cost
us
more,
but
isn't
that
kind
of
what
we
want
to
do
anyway,
so
yeah
we
can
operate
biodiesel.
A
Right
now,
right
now,
biodiesel
is
really
comparable
to
the
cost
of
gasoline
diesel.
I
mean
right
now
it
went
up.
It
was
much
higher
last
year,
biodiesel
with
much
higher,
but
we
can
operate.
Fire
engines
are
apparatus
on
biodiesel.
There's
two
options:
you
have
a
ninety
percent
at
an
eighty
percent
that
you
can
use
a
ninety
percent.
A
A
G
A
A
A
The
fire
department
and
Portland
Maine
went
out
too
big
for
a
napa
fire
apparatus.
They
received
six
or
seven
bids
and
what
we
call
is
a
piggyback
we
can,
we
can
jump
on
their
bid.
They
authorized
us
to
use
their
bid,
so
it
we
don't
have
to
go
through
our
own
RFP
process
is
what
the
advantages
that
are
named.
B
C
Wasn't
you
just
came
up
and
just
upped
out
so
the
other
than
I
guess
hit
2,700
you
said:
have
you
said
that,
obviously
there
was
a
time
there
was
a
period
of
time
that
we
would
have
to
act
on
that
in
order
to
acquire
that
the
one
you
have
out
to
bid
quote
or
whatever
the
words
one.
You
is
probably
bout,
a
30-day
window.
When
is
that
deadline
that
we
would
then
incur
another
sixty
thousand
dollar
cost
I
haven't.
A
Really
got
back
to
the
vendor
as
far
as
what
there's
a
deadline,
it
wasn't
it's.
The
availability
of
those
2007
model
motors
is
what
it
what
it
comes
down
to.
So,
if
you
add
a
number
of
agencies
going
after
right
now
and
taken
that
advantage
on
that
motor,
then
who
knows
when
it
would
be,
but
I
think
what
Google
does
you
know
I
just
presented
us
tonight
just
to
put
it
in
front
of
me
well,.
C
C
You
doing
that,
but
I
guess
that
my
concern
is,
you
know.
Usually
things
have
a
particular
time
frame
and
then
they
expire
cuz.
Obviously
nothing
in
this
world
keeps
the
same
price.
So
my
concern
is
if
we
don't
move
or
and
act
because
we're
not
sure
where
this
is
going
to
take
us
beyond
that
date
and
it's
going
to
cost
us
another
sixty
thousand
dollars.
I
would
hope
and
would
ask
that
that
be
brought
forward.
If
that
mean
earlier
or
june,
eight
mean
or
whatever
that
I
think
there
are
two
issues.
D
A
D
B
I
A
D
I
F
F
And
so
can
you
assure
me
that,
even
though
you're
taking
a
staff
person
off
of
that
and
you
are
bringing
in
consultants
to
deal
with
it,
that
the
inspections
are
still
going
to
go
on,
the
annual
inspections
are
still
going
to
go
on
to
these
types
of
businesses
and
uses
in
that
that
revenue
will
come
in
and
whether
we,
the
fire
department,
gets
it
or
whether
it
goes
to
a
consultant
that
the
safety
factor
in
the
community
is
still
still
being
made.
Correct.
A
All
the
mandatory
inspections
will
be
completed.
We've
made
prioritize
the
auto
row
inspections
with
the
help
of
the
building
department.
They
will
do
all
new
constructions,
routine
business
inspections
as
they
go
through
their
process,
so
I'm
comfortable
that
that
that
safety
issue
will
not
be
a
problem.
Obviously
we,
on
the
other
end,
will
lose
something
the
revenue
we've
gotten
from
plan
checks
that
will
go
to
a
private
consultant.
That's
that's
now,.
A
D
I
think
I
need
to
add
there
that
I
think
you
might
be
referencing.
It
cancels
out
there
a
program
that
I
think
has
proven
to
be
very
beneficial
for
the
city
of
see.
Everyone
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
chief,
but
I
do
not
believe
that
our
recent
experience
with
the
auto
body
shops
was
a
mandatory
in
Section
adult
that
was
an
initiative
of
the
department
that
I,
like
you,
Thank
at
a
great
value
to
the
city
of
San
Bruno.
D
Things
like
that
will
not
most
likely
be
able
to
be
conducted
either
at
all
or
at
the
levels
that
they
have.
We've
been
able
to
provide
them
in
the
recent
past
and
that's
not
something
that
I
would
anticipate
the
building
division
would
take
on
the
building.
Division
will
cover
those
routine
types
of
inspections
at
at
new
development
or
rehabilitation,
building
projects
where
they're
checking
two
plans,
but
not
initiating
going
out
to
a
category
of
business
and
saying.
Okay,
this
is
a
hazardous
type
of
business.
D
F
F
D
Opportunity
you
have
to
do
that
is.
As
chief
mentioned,
there
is
a
anticipated
firefighter
retirement
in
corresponding
vacancy.
The
chief
indicated
that
it's
his
intent
to
leave
that
position
vacant
pending
a
conclusion
of
a
consolidation
analysis,
depending
on
the
timing
of
that
and
any
future
actions
related
to
consolidation.
You
might
be
able
to
have
the
capacity
by
not
filling
that
position
immediately,
potentially
running
a
risk
of
some
overtime
costs
being
incurred,
but
but
we
may
be
in
to
work
out
a
structure
that
allows
us
to
continue
that,
for
some
some
period
of
time
will.
D
B
C
A
C
E
H
Community
development
department
is
comprised
of
the
Planning
Division
the
building
division
code
enforcement,
as
well
as
redevelopment
night,
will
be
touching
on
everything
except
redevelopment
to
go
over
tomorrow
in
the
planning
division.
Last
year,
the
Planning
Commission
focus
was
really
on
creating
plans
which
outlined
the
city
is
that
expectations
for
projects
while
eliminating
the
moving
target
for
property
owners.
With
that
in
mind,
three
major
plans
were
compared.
The
housing
element,
as
well
as
the
five-year
implementation
plan,
were
created
in
conjunction
with
the
redevelopment
division.
H
Both
these
plans
have
dozens
and
not
hundreds
of
policies
and
programs
that
will
need
to
be
implemented
within
the
next
five
years.
In
addition,
the
long-awaited
residential
design
guidelines
were
adopted
there
and
these.
What
these
did
was
create
the
design
expectations
for
all
single-family
home
expansion
into
the
city
of
San
Bruno
and
from
a
workload
perspectives.
H
What
this
did
is
the
planners
now
review
every
single
single-family
home
expansion
that
goes
on
in
san
bruno,
where
previously,
all
the
planners
were
viewed
from
an
architectural
standpoint
or
were
projects
that
were
big
enough
to
trigger
Planning
Commission
review.
So
that
is
a
number
of
new
projects
and
it
will
result
in
homes
that
are
better
designed
and
the
property
owners
that
don't
have
to
go
through
as
longer
process
because
they
know
what
our
expectations
are
at
the
beginning,
rather
than
in
the
middle
rent.
On
the
current
planning
fronts.
H
What
we've
seen
is
that
single-family
home
large
single-family
home
applications
have
been
about
the
same
as
they
were
in
2008.
One
positive
sign,
though,
is
in
the
last
few
months,
or
at
least
in
2010,
a
lot
of
the
dormant
applications.
Glen
View
Terrace
treetops
Cedar
Grove
things
that
were
approved
between
2005
and
2008.
Recently,
there's
been
developer
activity
to
resubmit
those
location
and
move
forward
and
I.
H
Seeing
is
a
trend
regionally,
if
not
nationwide,
is
that
a
lot
of
the
larger
developers
that
survived?
All
of
this
are
now
taking
a
look
at
the
projects
that
have
dropped
to
a
price
level
that
they
can
afford
to
go
in
and
buy
these
one
example
of
this
is
the
cedar
grove
project.
I
was
a
small
developer.
That's
what
on
the
peninsula
Christian
Fellowship
site,
a
small
developer,
went
out
of
business.
They
have
16
entitled
home
for
14
entitled
homes.
H
H
Because
of
the
change
economy
are
going
to
require
additional
review
by
our
planning
staff,
as
well
as
all
departmental
staff
that
review
development
applications
in
the
upcoming
year.
Our
primary
focus
in
the
planning
vision
will
be
on
the
zoning
code
update
as
well
as
the
transit
corridor
plan,
completing
those
two
planning
processes,
as
well
as
continuing
and
making
a
smooth
process
for
these
developers
that
want
to
come
in
and
reactivate.
H
These
dormant
projects
will
also
be
focusing
a
lot
of
the
economic
development
policies
found
within
the
five
year
implementation
plan,
as
well
as
in
the
general
plan.
However,
due
to
the
loss
of
the
senior
planner
position
over
the
last
few
years
as
the
current
planning
applications
come
back
online,
that
will
result
in
a
delay
of
a
lot
of
the
implementation
of
these
long
range
planning
schools.
B
H
For
the
community
development
technicians
who
have
started
to
do
a
lot
of
the
work
that
assistant
planners
used
to
do,
we
process
about
150
business
license
applications
a
year,
so
it
used
to
be
done
by
the
assistant
and
associate
planners.
Those
are
now
done
by
the
community
development
technicians
and
also
like
the
front
counter
work
in
the
building
division.
As
the
city
manager
mentioned.
H
What's
unique
about
the
building
division,
is
we
take
in
revenue
from
large
projects
that
are
one
year
time
frame,
but
the
impact
of
that
work
is
spread
out
amongst
two
to
three
years.
One
example
of
this
is
this
and
k
project
we
took
in
between
a
million
two
million
dollars
upwards
towards
two
million
dollars
in
building
permit
revenue
back
in
2006
to
tour
2007,
but
we're
still
doing
work
on
that
project.
H
Now,
when
the
project
is
when
these
large
projects
are
in
full,
full
mode,
you
Luke
or
John,
are
actually
out
in
these
projects
for
half
a
day
a
lot
of
times,
it's
not
a
full
day
doing
inspections.
So
there
is
a
lot
of
workload
associated
when
we
do
have
these
large
projects
and
in
treetops
does
come
in
this
year.
You
will
see
the
building
inspectors
on
this
project
for
at
least
a
half
day
a
day
over
an
18-month
of
24-month
period.
H
So
with
that
in
mind,
the
overall
vision
primary
focus
on
will
be
on
continual
improvement,
review
and
inspection
services.
There's
also
a
coupe
includes
now
doing
fire
to
some
of
the
fire
department
inspections
and
what
this
will
result
in
is
longer
days
or
longer,
inspection
time.
For
some
of
the
building
inspectors
possible,
delayed
inspections.
We
can't
fit
all
the
inspections
in
one
day.
Some
home
owner
may
not
get
24-hour
turnaround
for
inspection
services.
H
That
will
work
every
time
and
work
to
our
implores
an
ultimate
goal.
What
we'll
do
is
really
look
at
what
are
some
pre-emptive
strategies
that
we
could
take
in
this
code
enforcement
strategy
guide?
What
is
our
actual
enforcement
timeline
for
each
individual
type
of
case
and
what
are
reasonable
and
responsible
resolution
timelines
for
different
types
of
cases?
What
is
the
council's
expectation
for
garage
conversions?
B
G
I
have
a
couple
clarifications
on
your
goals
on
page
158
and
then
on
169
on
158.
You
say:
prepare
green
building
guidelines
and
encourage
implementation,
but
I
169,
you
say
continue
to
promote
green
building
by
developing
a
green
building
ordinance
and
if
we're
going
to
eliminate
one
I'll
I'd
go
for
eliminating
the
158
and
go
for
green
building.
Ordinance
and
I
realize
that's
a
little
more
work.
Yeah.
H
G
G
H
G
G
G
The
other
thing
I
want
to
say
in
general
to
one
of
the
goals
you
have
down
here
is
to
provide
customer
service
goals
of
next
day
inspections,
which
you
just
talked
about,
how
that
may
not
be
possible
and
in
general,
as
we
go
through
all
these
departments
and
we're
reducing
the
service
level,
to
whatever
extent
has
to
be
I
hope
somewhere
in
there.
We
let
our
residents
know
that
they
need
to
expect
a
different
level
of
service,
because
that
nothing
angers
people
more
than
expecting
24
hours
and
they
get
36.
G
But
if
they,
if
you
tell
them
48
and
they
get
36,
then
they're
happy.
Oh,
it's
all
in
expectations
and
how
much
they
know
that
those
are
my
only
comments
and
I
do
hope.
We
work
toward
a
green
building,
ornaments
and
I
just
want
to
say,
I'm
excited
that
we've
done
so.
You've
done
so
much
work
and
finished
up
the
dental
plan
and
the
Architectural
Review
and
all
those
things
they're,
tremendous
accomplishments.
C
Will
start
in
the
planning
division?
The
only
comment
I
want
to
make
on
that
is
Oprah.
More
than
half
of
each
of
the
line
items
are
reduced.
The
professional
services
contract
services
reduced
mentally
the
way.
I
calculated
is
like
a
hundred
twenty-five
thousand
dollars
less
than
last
year.
In
that
division,
I
will.
C
C
Tools
and
equipment
there's
no
increase
and
appreciate
that,
but
it's
the
annual
purchase
of
various
items,
flashlights
etc,
and
it's
repeated
as
it
was
last
year.
So
I've
just
wondered:
are
we
replenishing
that
each
time
is
as
needed
and
it's
just
a
budgetary
item
or
does
it
matter
how
many
times
we
we're.
H
Really
replacing
Zeus,
they
generally
go
through
one
pair
of
boots.
You
know
who'd
like
their
shirts,
their
safety
boots.
They
generally
go
through
one
of
those
every
year.
So
a
lot
of
those
are
reoccurring
costs.
So
you
know:
we've
got
by
safety
booze
for
both
building
inspector,
as
well
as
the
code
enforcement
officers.
They
wear
our
year,
they're
worn
out
and
divided
and
we're
clear
so
and
it
sometimes
we
don't
go
up
all
the
way.
504
there
are
years
when
we
do.
Okay,
that's
fair
under.
C
Six
409:
that's
the
special
project,
such
events,
which
is
graffiti
and
there's
bateman
services.
We
had
12,000
budgeted
last
time.
You
reduce
that
by
four
thousand
for
8,000
is
that
service
and
will
that
continue
to
have
the
community's
expectation
as
far
as
when
they
reported
that
it's
debated
as
far
as
per
feeding
other
nuisances,
I
believe.
H
H
C
H
C
Page
173
line
item
6702
publications
and
subscriptions
I'm,
showing
that
up
3,000.
However,
that
is
specifically
for
the
getting
the
building
code
books
updates,
which
are
every
three
years
issued,
and
so
that
should
go
away
next
budget
and
then
just
to
the
manager
and
finance
director
on
page
172.
Is
that
a
repeat?
D
D
D
F
H
We
didn't
really
have
a
standard
valuation
that
then
I
believe
we
adopted
it
to
three
years
ago
that
set
the
actual
price
per
square
foot
for
construction.
So
we
didn't
really
have
a
bargaining
game
at
the
front
counter
when
some
come
in
as
I
know,
I'm
doing
it
for
sixty
dollars
a
square
foot
when
you
knew
it
was
really
caught
in
the
150
200
dollars
per
square
foot.
So.
F
And
you
know
it's
a
bone
of
contention
with
me
because
if
you've
got
a
project,
that's
valued
at
four
hundred
thousand
dollars
and
a
project,
that's
traveled
at
three
hundred
fifty
thousand
dollars
you're
going
to
get
more
money
for
the
higher
value,
but
you
may
not
get
any
difference
in
inspections.
You
know,
as
far
as
what
it
costs
for
that
inspector
to
do
the
project
or
even
review
the
project.
So
I'm
just
happy
that
we're
getting
some
consistency.
F
My
other
comment
is
I.
I
can
appreciate
the
code
enforcement
priority
change
because
I
believe
we
need
to
revisit
that.
I
think,
speaking
for
myself,
I,
don't
know
what
my
college
thing,
but
we
we
need
to
be
a
little
more
efficient
with
that
code
enforcement
and
now
that
building
departments
getting
involved
to
what
we
originally
wanted.
F
K
Right,
let's
plug
Thank
You
mr.
mayor
and
council
members
tonight,
I
will
give
an
overview
of
the
program's
2010-2011
goals
and
the
budget
impacts
for
each
of
community
service
departments.
Five
divisions,
the
Recreation
Division
main
program
areas
deal
with
aquatics
and
sports
the
summer
views
of
the
pool
which
is
getting
extended
through
the
agreement
with
the
same
cable
union
high
school
district
this
year.
K
We
will
happy
to
give
an
update
on
that
fairly
soon.
The
top
three
goals
for
the
recreation
division
this
year
will
be
to
develop
a
marketing
brochure
for
the
rentals
of
the
indoor
and
outdoor
facilities.
We
will
be
working
with
the
nonprofit
sports
groups
in
the
business
community
to
produce
a
brochure
that
will
get
distributed
to
the
youth
sports
weeks
as
out
of
as
they
have
out
of
town
teams
coming
in
to
play
in
our
local
tournaments.
K
We
would
like
to
tell
them
about
our
hotels
about
the
restaurants,
about
the
shelving
opportunities
and
things
to
do
within
the
community,
and
we
will
be
restructuring
in
the
youth
sports
program
as
a
partnership
with
the
San
Bruno
Park
School
District,
and
there
will
be
more
information
on
that
on
your
June
eighth
council
meeting,
as
well
as
a
subcommittee
meeting
coming
up
in
terms
of
the
budget
impacts
for
the
Recreation
Division
in
2009-10,
the
current
year's
budget.
The
department
was
asked
to
increase
revenues
by
$100,000.
K
This
goal
is
on
track
and
is
being
achieved
through
an
increase
in
participation
levels
as
well
as
an
increase
in
offerings
to
the
public.
An
example
of
new
offerings
would
there's
been
a
push
to
do
more
on
site
enrichment
programs
at
the
schools,
the
elementary
schools
after
campus,
so
it
has
not
been
a
large
increase
in
the
fees
charged
more
in
terms
of
the
participation
levels
as
part
of
the
2010-2011
budget
strategy.
The
Recreation
Division
is
again
being
asked
to
generate
a
hundred
thousand
dollars
in
new
revenues.
K
The
three
main
goal
is
for
that
vision.
This
coming
year
will
be
to
create
standards
and
to
produce
an
equipment
replacement
schedule
for
all
the
facilities
in
all
of
our
parks
throughout
the
city,
and
then
the
next
two
are
working
with
the
public
services
department,
one
to
work
on
the
renovations
of
the
medians
El
Camino
rial,
lower
Steve,
Bernal
Avenue,
and
see,
and
also
to
work
with
the
public
services
department
on
the
lions
field,
synthetic
grass
capital
improvement
project
in
order
to
look
at
different
budget
impacts.
K
K
We
are
looking
at
the
loss
of
two
additional
park:
maintenance
worker
positions
so
combined.
This
would
be
more
than
twenty-five
percent
of
the
park
maintenance
crew.
Within
the
past
two
years.
It
will
have
a
significant
act
on
the
aesthetic
areas
items
such
as
litter
and
weed
control,
lining
of
the
ball
fields,
utility
repairs
mowing
and,
as
I
said,
the
safety
and
liability
functions.
We
will
maintain
those
at
the
current
levels:
letter
weed
control,
san
bruno
avenue,
huntington,
see,
flame,
medians,
railroad
strip,
bayshore
circle
spur
the
pump
stations.
K
Those
are
the
areas
that
will
see
less
maintenance
out
in
those
areas
go
for
control.
As
I
mentioned
lining
of
the
ball
fields.
We
line
approximately
260
ball
fields
per
year.
We
will
still
drag
the
fields
because
I
believe
that
is
the
safety
aspect
of
it,
but
the
lining
end
of
it
we
will.
We
will
turn
those
over
to
the
league's
that
use
the
fields,
the
utility
crew,
the
crew
that
goes
out
and
maintains
the
various
buildings
they
will
average
70
hours
per
week
rather
than
80
hours.
K
K
Those
will
be
done
at
a
lower
frequency
and,
as
the
city
manager
mentioned
in
her
opening
remarks,
that
the
parks
crew
has
had
many
new
areas
of
maintenance
responsibilities
in
the
past
couple
of
years.
These
include
san
bruno
avenue,
medians
the
railroad
strip,
the
spur
track,
bayshore
circle,
the
wells,
fargo
site,
summerfield
field,
8e
VA,
the
maple
and
forest
lane
pump
stations
and
coming
online
in
the
near
future
within
the
next
one.
K
The
senior
divisions
goals
for
the
coming
year
would
be
to
formalize
the
relationship
between
the
city
and
the
nutrition
site
council,
the
nonprofit
fundraising
arm
that
works
with
the
division,
the
replacement
of
the
21
passenger
vehicle,
the
van
we
hope
to
have
that
completed
by
late
summer
or
early
fall
as
the
grant
funds
become
available
to
us.
And
then
the
division
would
like
to
generate
more
revenue
by
organizing
additional
fundraising
events
as
those
opportunities
present
themselves.
K
As
the
budget
shows,
there
will
be
a
restructuring
of
a
position
in
the
administrative
staff
of
the
seniors
division,
and
this
will
result
in
a
number
of
program
changes,
while
the
restructuring
details
have
not
yet
been
finalized.
The
following
service
pack
impacts
are
examples,
although
these
are
subject
to
be
tweaked
a
little
bit,
but
there
will
be
a
reduction
in
number
of
programs
offers
participants,
potential
reduction
in
the
number
of
trips
to
some
of
the
local
vehicles
or
the
sports
leagues
and
some
of
the
special
events.
K
Library,
services,
the
main
programs,
are
the
collection
of
the
maintenance
of
the
collection
and
I,
don't
know
if
everybody's
been
following
us
on
our
Facebook
account
or
on
the
e-newsletter
Twitter,
but
later
on
this
week,
we
do
expect
to
have
the
400,000
item
checked
out
through
circulation,
and
there
will
be
a
little
bit
celebration.
That
will
be
a
new
record
for
us.
We
have
seen
roughly
a
ten
to
fifteen
percent
increase
in
circulation
materials,
so
we
are
averaging
somewhere
a
little
over
30,000,
maybe
thirty.
Five
thousand
items
per
month
are
being
circulated
through
the
library.
K
Another
program
area
is
the
public
service,
including
the
reference
items
or
some
of
the
educational
programs.
Some
of
the
other
programs
that
we
offer
are
things
such
as
story
times
the
summer
reading
clubs,
some
of
the
special
children's
programs
and
then
the
technical
support
for
the
computing.
Whether
it
is
the
new
loan
program
that
we
have
with
some
of
our
laptops
or
the
computer
stations,
the
three
main
goals
for
the
library
division
for
this
upcoming
year
would
be
to
begin
the
conversion
to
our
RFID
technology.
K
Radio
frequency
identification
technology
will
allow
the
patrons
to
check
out
several
items
simultaneously
without
the
meat
for
staff
assistance.
That's
an
item
that
you
will
get
more
details
on
during
the
CIP
budget
when
that's
presented,
but
it
is
a
goal
of
the
division.
Why
bringing
up
at
this
point
the
also
we
will
be
completing
two
projects
associated
with
with
Block
Grant
funds
to
remove
barriers
for
persons
with
disabilities
and
the
work
on
that
is
going
to
begin
very
soon.
K
As
I
mentioned,
there
is
roughly
at
ten
to
fifteen
percent
increase
in
circulation.
The
library
division
is
facing
a
seventy
thousand
dollar
loss
in
part-time
employees,
and
this
is
roughly
a
3,700
hour
per
year,
reduction
in
part-time
librarians
library,
assistance,
service,
coordinators
and
pages.
K
It
will
necessitate
a
reduction
in
the
number
of
hours
that
the
up
that
the
library
operates
from
fifth
current
55
down
to
43,
just
as
historical
data
on
that
in
2002
2003,
the
library
was
open
63
hours
per
week.
It
was
dropped
to
59
in
2003-2004
and
continued
until
this
current
year
when
was
dropped.
255
the
projected
43
for
next
year
will
be
a
thirty-two
percent
reduction
over
the
last
eight
years
to
achieve
the
12
hour.
K
K
Friday
hours
were
reduced
with
this
current
year
by
four,
as
we
would
just
not
open
on
fridays,
there
would
still
be
some
staff
in
there
doing
administrative
functions
that
would
free
them
up
to
be
on
the
desk
when
the
other
days
to
the
library
opens
Mondays
through
Thursdays,
rather
than
opening
at
ten
in
the
morning,
we
would
open
at
eleven
in
the
morning,
rather
than
closing
at
nine
o'clock
at
night,
we
would
close
eight
o'clock
at
night.
The
Saturday
hours
ten
a.m.
through
5
p.m.
K
would
remain
unchanged,
so
those
people
that
have
typical
office
hours
Monday
through
Friday,
still
have
one
day
during
the
weekend
when
they
can
visit
the
library
and
handle
their
business,
there
would
be
a
significant
staff
shortage
on
public
desks
reduction
in
some
of
the
children's
and
teen
program.
Although
we
do
consider
that
one
of
our
core
missions
there,
so
we
will
try
and
keep
that
as
brief
as
we
can,
but
there
will
be
some
impacts
from
that
area.
There
will
be
delays
in
filing
holds
and
processing
of
new
materials.
K
Comparing
this
library
services
are
one
of
those.
In
fact,
most
of
the
things
that
we
offer
within
community
services.
One
of
the
things
separates
us
from
any
of
the
other
departments.
A--'s
or
a
voluntary
service
people
come
to
us.
They
can
also
go
to
competition,
which
is
much
different
than
if
you're
going
for
a
building
permit
or
something
similar
to
that.
So
taking
a
look
at
what
else
is
going
on,
if
we
close
12
hours
a
week,
what
else
is
happening
in
the
county?
K
And
there
was
a
very
recent
survey
done
and
some
of
the
quick
results
of
itself
and
if
we
believe
it
was
meant
by
the
Burlingame
librarian.
So
when
alphabetical
order,
Burlingame
library
is
looking
at
closing
at
five
p.m.
on
fridays,
the
main
branch
which
is
two
hours
less
than
normal,
they
would
close
their
branch
all
day
on
fridays.
K
K
F
F
K
K
Seems
fridays
been
historically
the
slowest
day
for
library
services
period,
which
is
why
everybody's
looking
at
doing
that?
There
still
are
a
few
libraries
that
are
open
on
fridays.
Somebody
wanted
to
go
to
those,
but
it
would
have
the
least
impact
on
what
we
typically
do,
which
is
why
that
comes
forward
as
one
of
our
recommendations,
the
building
and
facilities
division.
An
internal
service
allocation
really
has
three
functions:
one
is
the
custodial
staff
and
they
service
17
city
facilities.
We
have
facility
maintenance
division.
K
The
goals
of
the
division
are
to
evaluate
all
of
them
is
contracts
and
the
benders
and
to
continue
looking
at
opportunities
to
reduce
expenses,
to
continue
to
provide
preventative
maintenance
program
and
to
continue
working
with
the
city's
safety
committee.
As
a
safety
committee
last
year,
two
years
ago
identified
lots
of
issues.
Everything
from
unbolted
shelves
to
to
exit
signs
the
division
is
going
through
and
handling
all
of
those
improvements
to
each
of
the
city's
facilities.
K
The
impact
here,
the
largest
impact,
will
be
the
elimination
of
the
one
custodian
position
and
that
will
be
again
looking
at
historical
data.
In
2004-2005
there
were
7.5
benefitted
custodians
in
the
city
in
05
6.
That
number
was
dropped,
25
point,
oh,
and
it
has
remained
until
this
turn
here,
where
we
are,
we
are
proposing
to
have
four
point,
oh
so
as
we're
losing
twenty
percent
of
the
custodians
this
year
over
the
past
six
years.
It
is
a
forty
seven
percent
reduction
in
the
number
of
custodians.
K
The
impacts
of
that
will
be
felt
mainly
within
staff
areas.
We
will
try
and
keep
the
service
level
in
the
public
areas
up
as
much
as
possible:
the
emptying
of
trash
cans,
recycling,
bins,
etc.
Vacuuming
of
the
office
areas
we
can,
we
can
empty
the
garbage
cans
and
recycling
bins
twice
a
week.
It
does
not
have
to
be
a
five-day-a-week
service
or
it
won't
be.
K
The
custodial
assistance
to
the
Senior
Center
has
been
the
largest
area
of
their
time
and
that's
going
to
be
cut
back
so
that
many
of
the
things
with
a
large
percentage
of
our
population
going
to
the
Senior
Center
on
a
daily
basis,
they've
had
there's
been
more
custodial
staff
and
that
will
be
cut
back
impact.
There
will
be
no
impact
to
the
public
restrooms
or
to
the
hallways
again
for
sanitary
reasons.
Those
will
be
kept
up
on
a
five
day
week
basis,
and
so
that's
an
overview.
B
F
The
beginning
of
your
presentation,
you
use
the
facility
rental
many
times
and
I
was
pleased
to
see
in
a
park
and
rec
Commission
packet.
The
survey
and
I
kept
that
survey
and
I
was
surprised
to
see
the
variations
and
so
I'm
anxious
to
see
what
the
what
staff
and
the
Commission
does.
As
far
as
trying
to
promote
market
more
use
of
our
facilities,
because
we're
not
the
cheapest
and
in
many
cases
were
with
the
most
were
more
expensive
and
that.
F
I'm
going
to
put
another
hat
on
and
I
think
that,
unlike
a
lot
of
departments
that
you
addressed
it,
we
are
open
to
more
community
involvement
and
I
believe
that
now's
the
time
is
to
to
reach
out
to
the
community
and
ask
for
volunteers
to
do
so.
I
know
you're
going
to
do
that
with
some
of
the
the
ball
fields
and
stuff,
but
I
think
there
are,
you
know,
lightest
the
liability
and
safety
issues
of
cleaning
up
the
medians
or
whatever
I
believe
there
are
areas
in
the
city
that
we
can
buy
bound
together.
F
Some
groups
to
you
know
to
help
out
not
in
and
I,
fully
appreciate.
You
know
what
happens
once
a
year.
You
know
with
the
operation
clean
sweep
we
need
to
do
is
more
and
I
think
that
takes
the
burden
off
and
and
lets
the
people
know
that
we
need
them
their
help
to
help
beautify
clean
up
there
soon
and
again,
Ethan.
Also
in
library
services
I
mean
how
much
do
we
use
volunteers.
F
K
I
would
also
throw
into
that
mix.
We
know
that
volunteerism
has
been
fantastic
at
the
Senior
Center,
since
its
doors
opened
we're
going
to
make
another
pitching
and
Wendy,
and
her
staff
are
going
to
be
talking
in
the
scene
if
there's
even
more
ways
that
the
impacts
of
these
reductions
can
be
lessened
through
the
use
of
volunteerism.
So
we
will
be
exploring
that
in
each
of
the
division.
F
G
K
G
Think
that's
a
great
idea
and
it's
nice
to
have
something
to
hand
out
to
people,
but
is
it
possible
to
also
do
some
kind
of
link
on
our
city
website
that
would
direct
people
to
the
cities
that
have
dog
parks?
I,
don't
know
if
that
might
be
something
to
look
at
I
notice,
and
you
talked
about
developing
the
youth
in
middle
school
after
school
sport
program
with
Sandra
now
Park,
School,
District
I,
think
that's
admirable
of
you
and
I
hope.
G
It's
successful,
I
I'm
sure
it
can
be
I'm
was
thinking
if
there's
other
things
that
we
can
do
with
them,
mostly
in
purchasing
supplies
that
would
create
an
economy
of
scale.
I,
don't
know
what
they
do
for
I'm,
throwing
things
out,
basketballs
or
whatever
kind
of
equipment
that
they
typically
purchase,
that
they
also
purchase,
maybe
that
we
can
coordinate
something
with
them.
That
would
be
beneficial
for
everybody.
Just
the
thought
with
that
kind
of
thing,
so
I
hope
that
works
with
you.
G
I
just
want
to
also
talk
about
the
library,
a
second
which
I'm
sure
everyone
knows
is
near
and
dear
to
my
heart.
I
want
to
point
out
to
people
and
the
audience
that
from
19
I'm
sorry
from
2005
till
now,
we've
seen
a
forty
seven
percent
increase
in
use
of
the
library
and
that's
despite
the
fact
that
the
library
is
four
times
as
smaller
than
it
should
be
or
a
hundred
times
smaller
than.
F
G
K
K
I
may
touch
on
a
couple
of
those
other
items:
the
dog
park-
that's
one
that
we
have
our
intern
working
on.
He
is
I
want
to
throw
in
a
bad
dog
park,
joke
that
I'm
doing,
but
he
is
taking
the
lead
on
that
project
and
he's
contacting
all
of
the
municipal
agencies
in
san
francisco
san
mateo,
santa
clara
county's
asking
for
the
information.
So
it
is,
we
not.
Everybody
has
to
duplicate
all
of
those
types
of
facilities,
and
so
we
do
want
to
be
able
to
give
people
a
booklet.
K
Also,
yes,
have
it
online
on
our
website.
For
people
to
see
it
says.
Where
are
all
these
opportunities
by
the
same
token
is
something
that
we
are
going
to
be
emailing
to
each
of
those
agencies
so
that
they
can
then
print
off
their
own
copies
and
give
it
to
their
patrons
and
let
them
know
might
be
fun
to
you
know:
you've
always
walk
your
dog
here.
Where
else
can
I
go
and
what
are
the
other
opportunities?
K
So
that's
one
of
the
things
that
he's
been
working
on
and
in
doing
a
very
nice
job
on
enter
in
regards
to
San
bernal
Park,
School
District.
The
council
has
a
subcommittee
of
vice
mayor,
Medina
and
councilmember
Salazar
that
have
met
once
and
there's
another
meeting
scheduled.
So
a
lot
of
those
ideas
that
you
mentioned
are
things
that
they
are
working
on
with
their
counterparts
of
the
district.
Okay,.
I
My
comments
are
kind
of
all
over
the
place
to
it
so
kind
of
jotting
down
notes,
as
you
jump
from
section
to
section,
starting
with
the
budget
for
the
recreation
and
there's
some
big
dollar
sections
in
there,
but
I
think
a
lot
of
those
you
do
receive
revenue
for
so
that
they
are
paid
services
and
I'm,
wondering
I
know
we
haven't
that
you're
still
waiting
to
present
the
the
new
fee
structure,
everything
but
I'm
wondering
when
the
fees
are
set
generally,
that
the
prices
are
set
to
mostly
offset
expenses.
I'm
assuming
part.
K
Of
the
strategy
and
recreation
is
not
pure
cost
recovery.
Sometimes
it's
what's
the
market
going
to
bear
looking
at
other
prices
of
similar
products.
Again,
as
we
are
a
voluntary
service,
we
know
that
we
do
have
a
captive
audience
in
terms
of
after-school
sports
programs
for
the
most
part,
but
things
such
as
educational
classes,
people
can
take
an
exercise
class
here
or
they
can
take
in
an
adjacent
city.
So
sometimes
it's
just
based
upon
market
rates
and
going
out
that
way
on
page
181.
K
That's
the
trend
that
we
need
to
continue.
Looking
at,
and
staff
has
done
a
great
job.
The
recreation
staff
has
done
a
wonderful
job
of
starting
to
think
more
entrepreneurial
and
filling
up
more
space
with
programs.
A
lot
of
what
we
do
is
still
human
service
component
and
it's
for
the
benefit
of
the
public.
We're
not
trying
to
raise
revenues
on
the
tree.
K
Lighting
ceremony
or
the
Easter
egg
hunt,
even
though
there's
staff
time
involved
in
many
special
events,
those
are
just
quality
of
life
issues,
but
on
some
other
programs,
yes,
we
do
try
and
maximize
what
we
can
sports
league.
You
know
adult
sports
leagues
would
be
one
example
where
we
do
try
and
go
to
cost
recovery.
I
As
we
start
talking
about
reducing
our
maintenance
of
public
areas,
what
kind
of
thought
process
is
going
into
making
the
public
areas
maybe
a
little
more
resilient,
and
by
that
I
mean
you
know
having
maybe
grasses,
that
are
more
weed
resistance,
so
that
we
don't
have
to
go
pull
weeds
as
often
or
drought.
Tolerant
would
be
nice
too,
but
it's
not
really
pertinent
to
this,
possibly
having
more
garbage
and
recycling
receptacles
available,
so
that
people
are
less
likely.
That,
though,
garbage
on
the
floor,
things
like
that.
K
And
we
do
talk
about
those
and
we
do
think
about
those,
sometimes
the
best
time
we
do,
that
is
during
capital
opportunities
when
we
can
make
a
change.
We're
talking
about
two
lions
field
is
exactly
one
of
those
opportunities
where
we
are
looking
at
reducing
maintenance
costs
by
over
500
hours
per
year
and,
at
the
same
time
providing
more
staff
of
more
service
to
the
public.
We've
had
an
extremely
wet
winter.
No,
that
doesn't
come
as
a
shock
to
anybody,
but
the
amount
of
days
that
lions
field
has
been
open.
K
You
know
we're
not
plentiful
at
this
point,
but
when
we
do
spend
those
especially,
we
need
to
be
looking
at
opportunity
to
where
we
increase
service
to
the
public,
as
well
as
decreasing
maintenance
costs.
Due
to
the
staff
night,
when
we,
when
we
did
sit
down
with
public
services
and
went
over
the
improvements
to
the
upcoming
train
station,
there
were
lots
of
points
that
were
made
their
different
landscape
areas
where,
where
things
were
changed
to
make
it
a
much
lower
landscaping
level
things
needed
attention
more
often
a
wall.
I
B
K
I
I
Am
a
little
concerned
that
not
really
concerned
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
that
we
maintain
the
library
that
there's
always
that
we
make
it
a
nice
place
for
people
to
go.
The
equipment
is
always
going
to
be
in
good
shape
and
that
they're
always
going
to
be
books
available
for
the
kids
to
read
so
I.
K
Think
I
think
one
example
of
that
is
is
we
did
use
some
of
the
grant
funds
to
do
the
wheelchair
access
which
will
be
started
within
the
next
couple
of
weeks,
and
we
did
use
a
little
bit
of
those
funds
to
carve
out
an
area
on
the
mezzanine
so
that
we
will
have
a
new
carpet
area.
We
pulled
back
some
of
the
library
shelves.
It
will
be
just
a
reading
room.
There
will
be
a
place
for
people
to
go
and
plug
in
their
laptops.
I
And
again,
since
we
are
reducing
hours,
I
want
to
make
sure
that
people
are
not
only
aware
of
it
but
competent
to
use
it.
So
there's
something
we
can
do
to
help.
People
use
that
having
you
that's
available
for
24
hours,
seven
days
a
week,
that
that
would
help
alleviate
some
of
that.
Some
of
the
pain
caused
by
the
closures
and.
K
As
since
long
as
the
opportunities
there,
if
I
can
make
a
quick
commercial
plug
that
one
of
the
things
that
we
did
add
this
year,
that's
been
extremely
successful,
is
we
had
a
small
grants,
purchase
some
small
of
those
mini
notebook
computers
and
some
even
committed
what
they
are
loaned
out?
You
can
check
it
out.
You
keep
it
within
the
library
and
that's
been
very
successful
in
helpful,
and
so
a
lot
of
people
are
taking
advantage
of
that
as
well.
G
Just
want
to
clarify
something
Michael
when,
when
you're
talking
about
the
internet
access,
it's
the
people
and
my
understanding
is
people
come
to
the
library
who
do
not
have
computers
or
internet
access.
So
when
the
library
closes,
they
don't
have
anything
which
is
one
of
the
real
tragedies
of
not
having
the
new
facility.
I
F
B
I
I
also
the
groove
mr.
I,
very
believe
your
division
is
pretty
ripe
for
some
type
of
volunteerism.
You
know
some
of
the
other
departments
just
aren't
able
to
do
that
kind
of
thing.
You
know.
Maybe
it's
an
adoptive
Park
program
or
some
kind
of
thing,
especially
for
the
smaller
neighborhood
parks.
I.
Think
if
it
worked
out
great
so
I
just
want
to
agree
with
you
on
that
goodbye
it
park,
we
can
buy
a
beber.
F
K
Mighty
it
is
a
line
item
that
was
just
not
placed
in
the
budget
in
the
previous
year
when
the
division
purchased
a
new
component
other
of
the
registration
software,
so
there's
more
fees
that
are
attached
to
it.
We
put
thirty
thousand
dollars
in
here
last
week
last
year
it
was
not
put
in
the
budget
at
all.
So
essentially
the
vision
was
starting
thirty
thousand
dollars
in
the
hole
we
realize
that
we
need,
we
should
account
for
it,
so
it
is
in
here
now
we
are
tracking
that
and
going
back
doing
the
calculations.
C
K
Is
it
done
even
if
you
come
in
and
set
for
a
class
at
the
recreation
center
at
the
counter
and
we
takin
we
process?
The
the
company
class
is
the
name
of
the
registration
software.
They
get
a
percentage,
even
if
it's
done.
Face-To-Face
percentage
is
a
little
bit
higher
online
and
some
of
that
has
to
get
picked
up
by
the
registrant,
not
by
the
department,
but
some
of
their
all
other
charges
and
we're
trying
to
work
with
the
finance
department
to
try
and
lessen
these
as
much
as
we
can,
which
is
why
we're
going.
K
We
will
be
able
to
come
back
with
a
much
lower
number
than
this
if
you
want
to
reserve
a
conference
room
or
if
you
want
to
reserve
a
room
in
the
recreation
center,
a
fee
goes
to
class
for
that
they
get
a
percentage
of
any
revenue.
They
comes
in
per
the
contract.
Any
revenue
that
comes
into
the
division
they're
getting
a
portion
of
it
even
goes
to
the
extent
where,
if
we
were
to
follow
the
letter
of
the
agreement
and
process
refunds-
and
you
have
a
birthday
party,
you
give
us
a
four
hundred
dollar
deposit.
K
You
end
up
leaving
the
room
perfectly
intact.
We
give
you
the
four
hundred
dollars
back.
If
we
put
the
four
hundred
dollars
into
the
into
the
regular
system
and
then
send
a
refund,
we
lose
money
on
that
transaction
class
gets
a
portion
each
way
coming
and
going.
So
those
are
some
of
the
things
that
we
need
to
try
and
streamline
that
we
think
that
there
are
opportunity
working
with
plants
do
to
do
that.
I'd.
B
C
Charged
presentation
on
item
6,
14
1,
which
is
printing
copying
and
finding
it's
down
three
thousand.
So
that's
great
how
every
you
were
able
to
work
that
it's
great
with
the
three
recreation
activity
brochures
so
we're
maintaining
the
three
cost
is
cheaper,
but
you
also
talked
about
developing
a
new
brochure,
so
I'm
trying
to
understand.
If
we're
going
down,
three
thousand
maintain
what
we
have
and
in
trying
to
increase
a
new
brochure,
how
we're
going
to
balance
or
pay
for
that.
The.
K
Other
brochures
are
going
to
be
more
of
the
small
pamphlet,
sighs.
It's
not
going
to
be
the
full
distribution
types,
but
you're
right,
I
did
use
the
same
terminology
and
manage
to
clarify
that.
However,
the
large
reduction
in
the
printing
of
the
brochures-
that's
a
project
that
we
started
last
year
by
partnering,
with
three
other
recreation
agencies,
Hylas
Recreation,
District,
city
of
millbrae
and
daly
city,
and
it's
always
nice
to
have
that
little
and
this
year
danielle
has
gone
back
out.
It
was
a
one-year
contract.
K
The
prices
were
lowered
from
the
printers
this
year,
she's
going
back
out
to
all
of
the
agencies
within
the
county,
and
we
are
expecting
seven
of
the
department's
to
partner
together
into
one
contract
and
just
threw
a
volume
discount
at
the
printers.
We
are
seeing
the
better
rates,
the
other
brochures
that
I
talked
about
we're
talking
about
a
few
hundred
copies
that
will
be
printed
out
of
three
or
four
pages,
rather
than
the
large
brochure
that
gets
mailed
out
to
everybody.
To.
C
E
K
Similar
a
similar
point,
eight
dollar
by
dollar,
a
similar
point
to
that
on
some
of
the
staffing
levels
within
the
division,
the
directors
FTE
and
the
administrative
assistants
FTE
before
was,
but
the
directors
was
put
fifty
two
percent
towards
recreation
and
fifty
percent
towards
library.
This
year
it's
been
divided
so
there's
point
one
percent
towards
building
and
facility
maintenance
point
15
towards
seniors
in
the
point
25
towards
the
other
divisions
to
more
accurately
reflect
with
real
practices.
Correct.
C
Thank
you
back
to
finance
regular
on
professional
development.
It
says
it's
reimbursement
for
department
head
and
three
min
managers
and
corners
of
the
mou.
It
was
I
believe
2000
last
year
and
it's
2,500
this
year.
So
did
the
mou
change
or
because
I
would
assume
we
should
be.
The
same
dollar
amount
that
the.
E
C
On
186,
just
under
do's
and
membership
publications,
and
subscriptions
I'd
like
to
have
that
spilled
out,
specifically
where
the
dollar
amounts
are
going
rather
than
just
being
general.
It
goes
to
California
Parks
and
Recreation
on
society.
Is
that
1200
hours
goes
to
that
professional
publications?
What
does
each
one
of
those
costs?
Are
they
necessary?
That
would
be
helpful
going
into
building
it
and
facilities.
C
What
I
didn't
see
last
time
was
the
regular
part-time,
5102
and
5105
in
the
overtime.
Now
they
could
have
been
somewhere
else
within
the
budget,
but
I
didn't
see
the
twenty
two
thousand
and
ten
thousand
last
year's
budget
of
those
line
items.
Is
that
something
new
or
was
that
allocated
to
another
area?
Last
time,
I'm.

Good
evening,
honorable
council
members,
the
HR
department
is
continue
to
focus
and
will
continue
to
focus
for
next
year's
budget
on
cost-cutting
strategies.
Some
of
the
few
cost-cutting
strategies
that
we've
implemented
so
far
are
changing
bilingual
testing
service
providers,
pre-employment
medical
service
provider
and
then
most
significantly
changing
our
law,
life,
insurance
and
long
term,
disability
insurance
carrier
saving
the
city
over
45,000
dollars
in
medical
insurance
premiums.
J
As
a
city
manager
mentioned
that
we
eliminated
the
HR
secretary
profession,
which
will
have
a
creative
and
impact
on
a
department
by
reducing
phone
coverage
service
and
clerical
coverage.
We
also
reduced
our
training
budgets
significantly
over
sixteen
thousand
dollars,
so
there'll
be
no
leadership
or
supervisory
training
that
we've
offered
in
the
past.
So
we're
only
going
to
offer
mandatory
legal
training
with
anticipation
of
the
reduced
recruitment
for
the
city,
we
reduced
our
recruitment
related
expenses
over
twenty
six
thousand
dollars,
since
we
will
anticipate
lower
recruitment
and
for
the
vacant
positions.
And
that
concludes
my
presentation.
C
J
J
Kind
of
down
drastically
right
the
cost
per
medical
exam.
We
do
a
pre-employment
medical
exam
has
has
reduced,
so
our
recruiters
have
reduced.
So
that's
why
there's
a
significant
reduction
of
costs
but
overall
cost
per
exam
as
reduced,
but
I
think
that
the
amount
that
we've
put
in
there
will
cover
unless
there's
a
huge
surge
and
recruitment
and.
C
I
You
have
a
couple
of
things
just
on
professional
services,
I'm
wondering
if
it
being
that
we're
in
a
situation,
we're
probably
not
doing
a
lot
of
hiring
I'm
wondering
how
much
of
these
services
are
really
necessary
for
some
consulting
services
there
for
17,000
job
description,
we're
paying
for
job
descriptions
and
mo
years
from
other
cities
and
I'm
wondering.
Are
we
really
getting
the
full
benefit
of
that
when
we're
in
a
period
of
relatively
no
hiring
the.
J
17
thousand
dollars
is
the
assistance
with
our
broker
to
look
for
lower
insurance
premium,
so
that
has
no
effect
on
the
recruitment.
The
mo
use
of
cells
of
dollars
is
for
ieda
when
we
are
in
negotiations,
and
we
do
surveys
and
and
pull
job
description
information
from
that
website.
That's
what
we're
using
the
service
for,
so
it
doesn't
really
have
a
theft
on
the
recruitment
itself,
but
recruitment
related
services
such
as
medical
exams,
advertising.
I
D
G
Could
you
tell
me
about
the
leadership
training
that
we're
not
doing
I
hesitate
to
cut
that,
since
we
don't
have
a
lot
of
back
up
people,
we
don't
have
a
like
assistant,
city
manager.
We
don't
have
assistant
anybody,
all
our
department
heads
are
who
is
who
they
are
and
who
they
lead
and
I
would
hate
not
to
I
would
hate
to
lose
the
opportunity
to
train
people
who
wanted
to
have
that
training.
The.
D
So
if
I
could
jump
in
here,
I
I
think
this
is
one
of
the
very
difficult
types
of
things
that
comes
with
this
type
of
budget
challenge.
It's
it's,
not
a
state
mandated
training,
it's
not
required
for
licensing
or
other,
but
it
is.
It
is
a
I,
wouldn't
even
say
it's
nice
to
have.
It
is
something
that
is
necessary
in
order
to
build
the
capacity
of
the
organization
and
to
provide
for
a
legitimate
succession
planning
program
which
very
honestly
we
do
less
than
we
should
I.
Think
it's
one
of
them.
D
I
would
say
it's
a
real
casualty
of
this
budget
environment.
It's
it's
something
that
I
would
say
adds
value
and,
if
they're
a
waste,
if
there
was
a
way
to
afford
it
again,
my
direction
to
the
department's
was
look
for
anything
and
everything
that
wiggles
and
that's
it's
a
it's
a
real
decision
point
potentially
for
the
City
Council.
Well,.
G
That's:
how
much
are
we
actually
saving
and
is
there
way
to
if
it's
a
huge
savings?
Is
there
a
way
to
trim
it
down
and
not
do
away
with
the
whole
program,
I'm
afraid
to
let
it
all
go?
We
realize
some
of
the
training
that
has
done
in
the
past.
We've
discussed
it
at
different
levels
and
it's
I
think
it's
a
crucial
thing
that
we
need
to
keep
at
least
in
some
some
form
or
another.
G
J
G
Maybe
if
you
could
talk
to
the
people
who
took
the
training
and
saw
what
parts
were
most
about,
they
felt
was
the
most
valuable
and
their
department
heads
and
what
they
found
was
the
most
valuable
to
those
city
as
a
whole
and
find
something
that
went
that
way.
I
I
would
strongly
recommend
that
we
keep
that
or
some
form
of
it.
E
Thank
you.
It
is
getting
kind
of
late,
so
I
asked
the
pleasure
this
is
the
council
will
not
want
me
to
continue
tomorrow.
I
promise,
t-
relatively
brief
row
include
relatively
brief:
go
with
go
okay,
the
finances
for
the
final.
The
finest
department
consists
of
two
work
units
administration
and
then
Revenue
Services,
the
initiative.
The
administration
department
provides
all
the
city
departments
with
the
oversight
all
city's
finances.
This
includes
preparation
of
the
budget
review
with
the
City
Council
of
the
quarterly
financial
performance
and
also
providing
monthly
updates.
E
The
department
heads
the
department
also
does
a
lot
of
regulatory
reporting,
including
reports
of
state
controllers
office.
We
also
do
the
annual
kapor,
which
is
the
audit
report
really
provided
by
the
outside
auditors.
The
revenue
services
unit
provides
the
customer
service
and
totally
building
for
about
11,000
accounts.
It
also
provides
billing
for
and
collapse
the
business
license
for
of
about
3,500
accounts
initiatives
that
we
have
for
the
upcoming
fiscal
year
includes
a
rub.
E
You
compliance
monitoring,
potentially
that
will
lead
to
additional
business,
license
revenues
for
the
portal
City
and
also
working
for
peppered
in
coordination
of
the
City
Council.
To
potentially
look
for
revenue
measures
that
may
include
landscape
and
lighting
maintenance,
district,
potentially
a
dilly
users
tax
or
a
visit
of
the
local
sales
tax,
as
discussed
earlier
in
terms
of
staffing
cuts,
HR
department,
the
loss
of
the
HR
secretary
position,
the
potential
impact
it
has
on
the
finance
department
is
that
we
may
be
looking
to
provide
clerical
support
services.
E
These
are
routine
clerical
work
that
includes
filing
answer:
phones
for
the
HR
department,
kind
of
a
backfill
for
their
loss
secretary.
This
also
may
then
translate
into
potentially
a
little
reduction
in
the
front
counter
hours
and
an
increase
in
wait
time
for
customers
who
we
reserve.
So
this
is
kind
of
a
brief
summary
of
the
finance
department
and
effects
on
the
corn
budget
in
terms
of
our
work
plan.
G
G
On
page
86
on
your
goals
and
objectives,
where
you
talk
about
review,
purchase,
purchasing
procedures
outlined
admissible
code.
My
memory
serves
correctly.
We
did
a
certain
thing
about
buying
products
that
were
made
from
reciting
recycled
product
purchasing
and
if
it
was
cost
neutral,
I
think
we
buy
it,
and
if
it's
not,
we
down
or
I
forget
what
that
is.
So
if
that
is
one
of
the
things
you're
going
to
be
looking
at
and
bringing
back
to
us,
is
that
what
this
is
that.
E
Could
be
an
element
of
that
again?
More
broadly,
is
that
we
need
to
look
at
the
code
and
look
at
where
we
are
currently
in
terms
of
purchasing
the
procedures,
so,
for
instance,
getting
quotes
the
necessary
groans
and
the
thresholds
for
signature,
Authority
and
approvals,
for
instance.
So
really
it's
a
broad
holistic
approach
and
looking
at
policies
and
procedures
as
they
relate
to
finance.
Okay,.
G
And
then,
and
then
the
other
thing,
while
we're
looking
at
that-
maybe
another
component
of
that
is
again
looking
at
economy
of
scale
that
we
could
cooperate
with
other
cities
and
see
what
they
can
do
and
we're
doing
we're
sharing
police
chase
fairing
fire
chiefs.
We
can
certainly
see
if
we
could
share
our
money.
Sure
now
we
can
take
know
if
you're
buying,
10
cases
of
something
and
you
get
it
cheaper
at
15
cases
and
share
it
with
millbrae.
Why
not?
G
That
was
one
and
then
another
concern
I
have
that
I
now
I,
don't
know
what
the
solution
is,
but
I
have
a
concern
that,
and
maybe
we
do
it
and
I
don't
know
about
it-
that
we
have
a
backup
data
storage
system
that
if
something
happens
to
our
financial
information
here,
if
we
have
an
earthquake
or
a
flood
or
something
that
destroys
and
damages
our
servers,
that
the
information
is
saved,
someplace
else,
so
I
don't
know.
If
we
do
that.
E
B
D
C
Thought
we
were
already
as
far
as
backup
I
thought.
There
was
already
something
in
progress
and
then
it
was
stopped
was
about
a
thirty
thousand
dollar
need
in
order
to
finalize
a
complete
backup.
So
if
something
did
go
down,
we
lost
all
of
it,
it
would
be
stored,
was
it
over
at
the
police
facility,
I,
believe
and
so
I'm
just
thinking,
because
I
think
that
is
something
up
concern
that
I've
had
I
know
what
this
isn't.
What
we're
talking.
C
I
B
Going
to
be
doing
that
again,
looking
at
that
again
next
year,
what
we
do
have
currently
in
place
is
a
tape,
drive
everything's,
backed
up
on
shape
and
we
store
at
the
fire
department.
We
have
a
vibe
proof
safe,
where
we
leave
all
the
daily
backup
tapes
in
that
location,
and
we
also
have
a
monthly
backups
restore
at
the
cable
department
as
well.
So
we
have
two
locations
where
we
have
taped
material
which
we
can,
which
we
retrieve
to
restore
when
there's.
B
Some
reason
missing
some
information
of
its
leaders
in
certain
files.
We
able
to
quickly
restore
those
the
disaster
recovery
program
is
going
to
be
essentially
virtualized.
We
currently
use
virtualized
machines
for
our
applications
and
for
our
servers.
So
essentially,
the
possessor
recovery
program
is
going
to
be
using
visualizing
machines
and
having
a
redundant
systems
in
the
event
that
the
main
data
center
goes
down.
The
the
possessor
recovery
network
booting
will
take
effect.
C
E
C
Under
dues
and
membership
that
increase
publication
and
subscription
I
see
that
as
a
new
line
item,
so
that
was
a
concern
whether
that
was
needed
item
into
the
status
quo,
which
was
the
manager
said
going
on
to
page
91
postage.
Another
operation
6112
went
up
around
forty
eight
hundred
dollars,
or
so
it
seemed
like
a
large
jump.
I
don't
know,
another
rates
went
up
a
little
bit
ago,
but
I
don't
know
as
to
why
Jews
and
memberships
6701
went
up
a
small
amount,
but
it
did
go
up.

I'm
not
aware
these
are
new,
but
if
they
were
not
in
the
prior
year,
it
might
have
been
an
oversight
on
our
part.
Is
the
CalPERS
decided
diversify
its
officer?
She
really
is
a
grouping
that
is
a
group
that
many
of
the
finance
officials
belong
to
and
we
get
a
lot
of
data
resources
from
that
particular
organization.
Splitting
our
professional
trade
organization-
that's
here
and
is
available
for
all
the
finance
directors
in
the
local
communities,
followed.

No
not
not,
in
particular
in
terms
of
going
to
these
statements
and
things
like
that.
One
of
the
things
that
we're
trying
to
do
it
doesn't
necessarily
save
us
a
lot
of
money
but
I
think
it
saved
some
time.
Is
that
things
like
getting
the
documents
from
banks
or
instead
of
getting
paper
statements
in
our
gardens
and.

That
HR
is
good
in
a
black,
because
the
loss
of
the
HR
secretary
in
terms
of
benefits
for
the
organization
and
having
eventually
the
half
hour
or
one
hour,
it
allows
us
to
use
that
time,
potentially
to
address
other
needs
and/or
to
do
more
planning.
You
know
to
talk
about
things
like
you
know.
Are
there
processes
that
we
can
look
at
to
improve
and
enhance
that
will
yield
some
savings
for
the
organization
that
necessary
specifically
to
the
finance
department,
but
really
globally
for
the
entire
organization?
F
I
think
you
I
mean
with
the
closures
of
the
library.
Actually,
in
my
experience
with
other
communities,
is
that
you
just
train
the
public
to
come
at
certain
times
and
so
like
community
development
and
possibly
finance
and
public
services.
You
close,
yet
you
know
there's
days
that
you're
close,
you
know
so
that
you
can.
You
know
the
staff
can
concentrate
on
office
office
duties.
So
I
think
that
is
something
that
as
much
as
the
public
may
complain
or
whatever,
but
they'll
get
used
to
it.
F
I
mean
that
I'd
rather
have
them
no
plan
their
day
to
come.
Just
like
that
now
they're
going
to
plan
their
days
when
to
come
to
the
library
you
know.
Instead
of
having
to
stand
there
and
wait,
you
know
and
get
frustrated
because
someone
is
too
busy
or
something
so
I
think
that's
something
that
you
know.
A
lot
of
the
department's
could
consider
me.
