how at least 5% of their income comes from other sources, so each district needs to fund raise in addition to the assessment, this district have in-kind donations and some grants that helped them get to the 5% other income. the mission did state within 10% variance between the budget amount and actual expenses, so we are looking from year to year that their budgets stay consistent, but also that they do not spend way more or weigh less than they said they would in their budget. and then carryover funds. sometimes, they have funds at the end of the year that day under state law are required to show in the next year's budget how they are going to spend those carryover funds, and they have to be in accordance to their management plan, and they are going to have to spend any funds they have left by the end of this calendar year because they are -- they cannot renew

unless they are approved for renewal, and they actually have a renewal hearing on october 5, so if they do not renew, they have to spend all their funds by the end of this year, and if they do read it, they still need to spend down their funds, but they would be able to assess for the next calendar year if they renew. this shows the 2010 budget. there projected revenue from assessments is $73,000. they have 36,611 carryover for 11 of 11,000 $900,000 this year, and these are how they are spending these funds. beautification cleaning, maintenance, public relations, 86,006 and $11. on staff management and general administrative costs. >> -- supervisor avalos: that will all be expended by the end of this year? >> yes, by december 1.

we will make sure because they will submit financial statements to us at the end of the fiscal year as well, and we will review that with the controller's offi ce. we have some recommendations for the bid. if they were new, we will make sure they include their in-kind donations in their audits as income, and we also want them to issue detailed -- details about how they plan to spend any carryover revenant. in every year's budget, we need to show how that is going to be spent. not just them, but every district. i believe that is about it. that is all i have to report. supervisor avalos: thank you. do you have a sense of what the changeover is or recommendation

with the changeover is or how much property is turned over? for those 20 parcels, or the same property owners involved? does that change significantly? what do you see as the prospects for renewing in the next year? >> they are in the ballot phase, and next week, the department of elections will count the ballots. there board of directors is quite committed. it is a small block, so they know every property owner on the block, and they know all the merchants and some of the property owners are merchants, so i do not know if there board membership has changed in the past five years. i could ask them that. i go to the meetings at least once a year, and all of the same board members from the beginning actually are still on the board that i can remember, but i can look into that and get that information back to the

board. in terms of property ownership, i can compare the current property ownership to the property owners five years ago. i do not have that information available now, but some of the parcels i know have split into several parcels. but because we had to readjust their assessments when they split, but i do not remember that the property owner has actually changed. i'm sure there must have been some turnover. supervisor avalos: ok, we can open up for public comment. seeing no one come forward, we will close public comment. we can approve this. it is actually a resolution. so we are moving forward with recommendation, and we will take that without objection. thank you for your presentation , and we do not have any more items, correct?

>> that completes the agenda. supervisor avalos: then we are adjourned.

presentation regarding san francisco public utilities commission proposed fats, oils, and greece control ordinance. >> good afternoon, commissioners. in september 2008, you approved the port's adoption of a sanitary management plan. we are required to have that as a center operator and we are not permitted to release oil into the city. the manager of the puc will give you the draft board blueprint.

>> good afternoon, commissioners. i apologize for the graphic nature of my presentation today. i am with the sfpuc, sewer department, water enterprise. my job is to implement and manage programs that keep pollutants out of the sewer system, which are required by our permits. not only are they good for the environment but they are required by permit. we are going forward to the board of supervisors with a resolution that has already been approved by our commission for an ordinance that will help control greece in the sewers. this is an example of a sewer lateral. i am pretty sure this is coming from a restaurant. it looks like water, but this is hard in the crease with a trickle of water. this is what happens when it hits the name servers. the first one to the left is a manhole cover when you look down. we had to jackhammer that one

out. it is not a pretty subject but we have known it has been a problem for a long time, and we have inspectors that go out and have been teaching restaurants in the city about not pouring grease down the drain, dry white thing plates. we also started the sf grease recycling program. restaurants were interested in that, and companies are also picking up for free. it has a market value. what we are finding -- this is just to say that this is a suite of programs that we have to keep people from dumping things down storm drains, a chemicals in their homes and businesses. the question is, why is this happening? it turns out we have local ordinances that should be controlling this, both support and puc. the plumbing code of the port

and city both require that they have grease-capturing of equipment. the public were coded which regulates the source system has requirements that says you could only discharge a certain amount of greece into the sewer system. both of this is to help us comply with our treatment plant. what we are finding is our crews that respond to work orders, over 40% of their calls have to do with trees. when you break that down into staff time, that is over three and a half million dollars we are spending on grease, despite the existing laws, it wears on the pipes, and it keeps people from dealing with more proactive inspection that could increase our levels of service. we started investigating a few years ago why this clause. there are about 3000 restaurants in the city that are potentially discharging grease. we found a lot of them do not

have any equipment at all, maybe the owner of the building changed hands, or that they do not clean it. what we realized is, historically, there is a gap in regulation where the department of building inspection, port inspectors will require that a new restaurant puts it in, but nobody goes back to look at it to make sure it is maintained, serviced, or kept their if the restaurant changes hands. what we have developed with the golden gate restaurant association and other key stakeholders is an ordinance that clarify existing requirements about cleaning and maintaining your equipment, making sure is fully operational, that you have it in place, and also, it will move more restaurants to modern equipment. before i get into the specifics of the ordinance, we have been

working on this for several years. in your package there is a level 3 letter of support from the golden gate restaurant association. -- there is a letter of support from the golden gate restaurant association. we have done door-to-door outreach. we have been out there. hopefully, people know this is coming. in a nutshell, the ordinance make sure that people continue best management practices that are already out there. we will give more guidance on how to properly manage the grease that you get from your traps. it will also clarify that you need existing equipment for the plumbing code. new factors have to do with the type of equipment. there are three kinds of greece capturing equipment. grease trap is your typical trap. to the left is a clean one. to the right is what it looks like when you do not claim id.

a large interceptor -- this one is outside of a fast-food restaurant. there are not that many in the city because of space. it is technically not feasible in many parts. so you have to trap the first one, and then you have this new automatic device. this has mechanical parts that skims the grease off and a basket in front that helps to remove food waste. here is a picture of it on the right, tied into a three- compartment washing sink. the benefits of the d r d, cleaning it, it is not as offensive. it pulls out a solid, and we are looking at opportunities to reuse that race -- grease. the one new thing in does do, because we are this your department, we care what you discharge, we recorded categorize restaurants based on

their risk of discharging greece to the sewer. there are four categories. that depends on how much they cook, how much -- or kind of cleaning devices they have. this will be a category for a place that reheat food, maybe a coffee shop. they are not required to do anything in terms of grease- capture equipment. it will simply clarify that. then it goes all the way up to category 1. for example, a steak house that has a lot of greece but has no equipment. those in category 1, that have been violating the existing code, they will be required to put in the automatic grease removal device. other books with existing equipment just need to service and properly maintained it. there will be some clearer standards on that because we are finding out that most restaurants do not know what that means. the last thing i will touch on has to do with cost. the reason it has taken us so long to get to the board is

because the grd's are more expensive because they are automated. we have some vendors come out to give us some qtuotes -- quotes locally. they can range from $1,000 to about $3,000. one thing that we are going to do is reduce the loading charges that restaurants pay. right now, you pay a floating charge for the amount of oil and grease you're putting into the sewer. we figured out, with this equipment, you would be lowering the amount of oil and grease, so we take that loading, it would lower your sewer bill oby about 14%. that makes the return on investment for this occurred in

between one year and five year. there are also benefits. if you're laterals are not clean, they have to pay to get them cleaned out. the last one talks about the interaction with the port. you have your own inspectors. in other restaurants, we would be dealing with tbi. when a restaurant goes in, we tell somebody they are a category one, inspectors just need to know that they need to put this kind of equipment in. they can keep the same role of ensuring that it is up to code. i think i will end on that note. in terms of next steps, we have gone to the commission. we are approaching the mayor, board supervisors, to see who would like to sponsor it. then we will go to the board to get it adopted by the end of the year. >> any questions, commissioners?

aside from getting my cholesterol checked next -- >> i tried to avoid the analogy of arteries. >> i know that fishermen work has done some things changing out things, pipes. i think the change will be noticeable. >> we are looking at a lot of issues working together with the port. >> thank you. any public comment on this item? >> item 10a. request approval of term sheet for seawall lot 351 with san francisco waterfront partners as part of the washington project.

>> hello, commissioners. i am with the port planning and development staff. my name is jonathan. i am here to ask for your endorsement of a term sheet for see what 351 project as part of the 8 washington over all development. i put up on the projector a slide showing the site. it is about two-thirds of an acre. as a way of background, the commission authorize support staff to issue a request for proposals for development sub medal in 2008 for this parcel. we received a proposal in december 2008 from san francisco waterfront partners. we evaluated the proposal and came to the port commission for recommendation of a development

which was awarded in 2009, subsequently, imports have entered into a negotiating agreement in august 2009 with the developer. i am here today to present the term sheet that came out of those exclusive negotiations and asked for your recommendation to move on the endorsement and to endorse the term sheet. i should also note, in february, the port commission directed staff to work with the planning department's staff to come up with a planning study for all of the sea wall lots, especially parking lots, between washington street north to north point street. this was a study that the planning department designated as the embarcadero study. they concluded that in july 2010. after that study was completed, park staff work in earnest to negotiate a term sheet with the developer.

that is what we are presenting here today. i will present the financial terms of that term sheet. then we are going to go into the opportunities for the developer to have opportunities at the site. just to be clear, the 8 washington site, which should be up on your screen, is a compilation of steve a lot 351, which is currently at the bottom right -- see what 351, which is currently at the bottom right. the project happens to be combined with the adjacent to one-half acre golden gate tennis club. in their original some middle in 2008, -- submittal in 2008, they

propose building residential homes up to jackson street, and then reserving the rest for the swim club, four tennis courts, and a park. after the study was completed, that was slightly revised. they have already submitted a revised application for the process. just before i launch into the business terms, i wanted to say something about where we are with the term sheet. essentially, the term sheets for the economic parameters and other fundamental terms with a basis for negotiating further transaction documents, leases, a property transfer agreements, etc. these are project approvals that will have to happen after environmental review occurs and other regulatory action. there is an understanding that the project will continue to evolve around this public and

regulatory review process. the process is subject to completion of environmental review. that review will look at a full range of environmental program alternatives and any mitigation measures necessary brought forth by this ceqa review. the term sheet may be subject to further changes in the course of that review. during this extensive public approval process, there will be ceqa review, we will also be forced to respond to other city, port, and other public concern that come forward. the term sheet is very limited to the use currently proposed by the developer and does not cover all the potential uses for sea wall lot 351. the port may consider other uses as part of the approval process. term sheet may be amended along term sheet may be amended along with subsequent proposals to
