Supervisor John Marr introduced the resolution and invited Michelle Rutherford, child‑care director at the Department of Human Services (and a member of the San Francisco First 5 Commission), to explain local impacts and the agency response. Rutherford said the families affected are former CalWORKs participants who had transitioned off welfare; the state notified local agencies on Oct. 12 that the governor had vetoed the funding line item.

Rutherford said the city moved quickly to put families \"automatically on the waiting list\" where possible rather than require new applications, acknowledging that the state’s notice and the trailer‑bill treatment limited automatic continuity. She said the department is evaluating whether some families could qualify under Stage 2 rules (for those with recent aid activity) and was planning intake and orientation sessions at flexible hours to help working families.

Rutherford said San Francisco’s First 5 Commission and its state counterpart were discussing short‑term bridge options. She told the board that only about 469 of the affected local children are within the First 5 0‑to‑5 eligibility range and estimated a 3‑month backfill for those children might cost roughly $1.4 million locally; that figure and the scope would require First 5 legal and fiscal review. Rutherford cautioned that not all affected families would be eligible for a First 5 backfill because First 5 funding is targeted to 0‑to‑5 programs.

Multiple members of the public—parents and advocates organized by Parent Voices—addressed the board during public comment, describing families who received very short notices and the hardship the cuts would create. Parents told the board the two‑week notice system would force some to quit school or work and urged a local bridge or other immediate action. Parent Voices organizers and several speakers asked the board to press the governor and to identify local emergency funding until the state legislature could act.

After the staff briefing and public comment, the board agreed to the resolution urging reinstatement and encouraging the First 5 Commission to consider a short‑term bridge; the resolution was adopted on the floor without objection.

What to expect next
Rutherford said the department would continue outreach, attempt to reclassify families where appropriate, and work with First 5 on possible bridge funding for 0‑to‑5 children. Supervisors indicated they would continue to press for a state fix and to explore any local bridging strategies available pending state action.

","The Board of Supervisors adopted a resolution asking the governor to restore $256 million in Stage 3 child‑care funding to protect 1,214 San Francisco children (81,000 statewide). Human Services staff outlined options including limited First 5 bridge funding for 0‑to‑5 children and automatic placement of affected families on waiting lists.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6601537,"Supervisors adopt amendments and continue drug disposal ordinance for industry talks",440,984000,1424000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3005903-754df2b5b95d276f476be3e3e4feaaf5&start=984&end=1424","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3005903-754df2b5b95d276f476be3e3e4feaaf5/thumbnail_984000.jpg","/articles/6601537/San-Francisco-County/California/Supervisors-adopt-amendments-and-continue-drug-disposal-ordinance-for-industry-talks","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6601537-9f5745153e0d58f46a7e4232ce53ba89/orig.mp4?Expires=1775620470&Signature=AcdPR2-06KvKV46AV4gxCtjro6LArPX3-w4IZeA2i8yhsD90h2ON64fg5FA9lynulVv74GGsWhmZCyPoLJkWl1QuZxVZ-HjmtEs7~MSYS2-nCmZfDlsWy0b-xx-fSoSN-SrZrRGg7yhZuso9S1HK9Xa2oizQPqZqofiqfltDkz1pWBGoecl4AJsyPXXCiqKAi5Nl4UwmWaK739N5o~sZT0GYQ-hg5~t1lH9jxY6ESSvNj6Iwu0VuTN6Wqf~tC1yUwphSQeZWhB6lUHyEUbvggLKqF7IwmJJBLxU8~5YsIY7zwX4wL4Jn6m3DyJ4neRcxrpPFXdwNSyDu8VLxW~FVCA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday considered an ordinance that would require producers of drugs offered for sale in San Francisco to participate in an approved drug stewardship program for collection and disposal of unwanted medicines from residential sources.

Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi McRae (listed in the transcript as Supervisor McRae) introduced the ordinance and described public‑health and environmental reasons for the measure, citing national statistics on accidental pediatric poisonings and studies finding pharmaceuticals in waterways. He proposed several amendments to the draft ordinance and moved to adopt those amendments on the floor; the board adopted the amendments without objection.

Highlights of the adopted amendments, as described on the floor, include language requiring wholesalers to provide certain information to the city (without imposing producer duties on wholesalers), excluding cosmetics from the definition of covered products, and delaying the chapter's application to controlled substances in nonprescription drugs until Jan. 1, 2012.

Supervisor McRae asked that the measure be continued to allow the pharmaceutical industry, the Department of the Environment and other stakeholders to meet and present proposals. The board agreed to continue the item to Nov. 23, and the author said the continuance was intended to give the industry four weeks to demonstrate genuine willingness to participate in a shared solution.

Several supervisors supported the continuance and the outreach plan. Supervisor Dufty noted that local pharmaceutical employers such as McKesson Corporation should be given a chance to comment. Supervisor Duffy emphasized existing return programs offered by retailers and community groups and called for broader outreach to stakeholders.

The board did not vote to adopt the ordinance at the meeting; it approved the amendments and continued the ordinance to Nov. 23 for further stakeholder meetings and environmental department participation.

Votes and formal action
- Motion to adopt the author's amendments: adopted without objection.
- Motion to continue the ordinance to Nov. 23, 2010: approved without objection.

What happened and why it matters
The proposed \"take-back\" program is intended to reduce accidental ingestion by children, limit opportunities for diversion of prescription drugs, and reduce pharmaceutical contamination of waterways. The author and his allies highlighted national and local data on ER visits, suicide attempts involving pharmaceuticals, and water‑quality studies. The continuance gives the department and industry a month to negotiate details such as reporting obligations, covered products and timelines before the measure returns to the board.

The contract, described by MTA staff as supplying specialized project-controls expertise and a project-controls software system, won board approval after supervisors asked MTA officials how they would supervise the consultant and why the final negotiated price exceeded earlier estimates.

Supervisor Campos questioned whether the MTA had sufficient in‑house expertise to oversee outside consultants and asked specifically what the consultant would do that current staff could not. Arthur Wong, identified in the meeting as the project construction manager for the SFMTA Central Subway Project, said MTA has staff who can supervise but does not have enough people to perform the detailed scheduling, estimating and integration work required across multiple projects. \"We do have staff available that can oversee and gather and make sure all the schedules that are done perform correctly and to integrate them together,\" Wong said.

Wong told the board the contract will also include training for MTA staff: the contractor will provide instruction in schedule development, estimating and operation of the project controls system as part of the engagement. On the price, Wong said the final negotiated figure was higher than an initial $22 million estimate because of differences in the staffing hours estimated and elements the agency and the contractor reconciled during a brief negotiation.

Supervisor Campos also asked why a vendor that scored higher on the written proposal did not win the contract. Wong said oral demonstrations were part of the selection and that Hill International demonstrated a better organized system during the oral presentations.

The resolution passed on a roll-call vote with 10 ayes; the transcript records no negative votes recorded for this item. The board adopted the resolution and the contract award is authorized to proceed.

The contract will be used to support program controls across MTA capital projects, including the Central Subway program cited by staff during questioning. The MTA and Hill International will negotiate and finalize the task orders under the master contract in subsequent steps.

Votes and formal action
The board recorded the roll call on the item and adopted the resolution authorizing the contract. The vote was recorded as 10 ayes; no mover/second was recorded in the public roll call taken on the floor.

What remains to watch
Supervisors emphasized the need for internal MTA oversight of contractor work and asked for back‑up documentation of the competitive procurement and scoring. Supervisor Campos requested copies of the procurement backup materials.
