Board of Supervisors                             Meeting Minutes                                                9/10/2013



130816 [Formal Policy Discussions - September 10, 2013]
            Pursuant to Charter, Sections 2.103 and 3.100(7), and Administrative Code, Section 2.11, the
            Mayor shall answer the following eligible questions submitted from Supervisors representing
            Districts 1, 3, 5, 9, and 11. The Mayor may address the Board initially for up to five minutes.
            Discussion shall not exceed five minutes per Supervisor.

            1. Mayor Lee - As you know, San Francisco has set ambitious goals to combat climate change. In
            many ways, the City is making great strides in this direction, from increasing bicycling, to pursuing
            zero waste goals, to hiring a new, excellent environmental policy advisor in Rodger Kim who has a
            strong background in environmental justice and community engagement. However, the Public
            Utilities Commission has repeatedly failed to set rates for CleanPowerSF, the most impactful local
            proposal yet designed to curb carbon emission. This program was adopted by the Board of
            Supervisors, the legislative body of the City. However, there are some allegations that your office is
            stalling its implementation. What specifically are you doing, as the City’s head executive, to
            implement this policy in a timely fashion? (Supervisor Mar, District 1)

            2. Mr. Mayor, can you please outline your objections to the CleanPowerSF program as approved
            last year on an vote 8-3 by the Board of Supervisors? (Supervisor Chiu, District 3)

            3. Recognizing the constraints imposed by state law, particularly with respect to opt-out provisions,
            how would a clean power program need to be structured in order for you to support it? Are you
            willing to work with the Board of Supervisors, and have your staff and commissioners work with the
            Board of Supervisors, to revise CleanPowerSF so that you can support it? Can we come to the
            table and make clean power a reality without any further delay? (Supervisor Breed, District 5)

            4. The Board of Supervisors has been very supportive of CleanPowerSF. Do you think it is
            appropriate for a City Commission to go against the policy the Board of Supervisors set when it
            approved CleanPowerSF? (Supervisor Campos, District 9)

            5. Days after the one-year anniversary of the 2010 PG&E San Bruno pipeline explosion, you called
            PG&E a "great local corporation" and a "great company that gets it." However, the examples of
            PG&E's immoral, illegal, and greedy behavior are legion:

            - PG&E avoided admitting fault in the San Bruno explosion, failed to cooperate with the
            investigation, fought against paying a fair fine, and hopes to make ratepayers pay for the fine.
            - PG&E's current electric mix is only 20% California-certified renewable.
            - Outages of PG&E-owned streetlights have increased over 400% in recent years, and PG&E
            wants to increase by $600,000 a year the amount it charges the City for streetlight maintenance
            without committing to improved service.
            - Despite the fact that PG&E already has some of the highest electric rates in the country, PG&E
            is seeking to further increase rates in each of the next three years.
            - While PG&E has proposed a new Green Tariff program, it remains only a vague proposal and
            there is no guarantee that it will ever be implemented.
            - PG&E’s previous green campaigns-such as ClimateSmart and "Let's Green This City"-have
            proven to be short lived and ineffective public relations stunts.

            Multiple public surveys conducted by the PUC to gauge the level of support for CleanPowerSF
            have all found that a substantial number of San Franciscans want the opportunity to pay a slight
            premium for a 100% renewable alternative to PG&E.

            Why does your office continue to oppose providing City ratepayers with an alternative to PG&E’s
            monopoly by implementing CleanPowerSF? (Supervisor Avalos, District 11)
            Mayor Edwin Lee addressed the Board of Supervisors and discussed the above referenced
            questions. Following public comment this matter was filed. No further action was taken.
