COMMUNICATION
The Clerk presented the following communication from his Honor,
the Mayor, returning with his veto the Salary Standardization
Ordinance :
-445-
Monday, May 13, 1991
Honorable Doris Ward
President
Board of Supervisors
235 City Hall
San Francisco, California 94102
Dear Supervisor Ward:
I am returning with my veto the Salary Standardization Ordinance
for Fiscal Year 1991-92 (File No. 106-91-1.)
Regrettably, with San Francisco facing an estimated budget
shortfall of $135.6 million next year, we simply cannot afford to
give city workers a pay raise costing $72 million.
The continuing recession and the drought have seriously impacted
San Francisco's revenue generating capacity and necessitate a
cautious approach to spending.
Even with this veto, we still must make up some $70 million
through spending cuts and tax increases. In doing so I have
instructed my budget staff to protect city services and focus their
attention on administrative costs.
However, granting city workers a pay raise next year would
require a massive reduction in city services in order to balance the
budget, which I am unwilling to do.
The SSO would also cost the Unified School District and the
Community College Districts more that $3 million. With the public
schools already contemplating the layoff of 400 teachers, the SSO
would only exacerbate their fiscal burden.
Further uncertainty about San Francisco's fiscal future comes
from the state budget, which faces a shortfall of $13 billion.
Proposals to balance the state budget involve more that $150 million
in funds currently received by San Francisco, any of which could be
jeopardized next year.
Although freezing salaries is a necessary step to protect the
fiscal integrity of our city, it is an unpleasant one. City
employees are hard working, productive and integral to our ability
to deliver the level of service San Franciscans have come to expect.
While San Francisco employees have had their wages frozen twice
since 1980, they have fared better than their state counterparts.
State employees have had five pay freezes since 1980, and, in
addition to a wage freeze this year, face significant benefit
reductions and a substantial number of layoffs.
Reform of our city salary system must be part of our long-term
strategy of maintaining the city's fiscal health. While our current
discussions with employee organizations have not produced a
definitive agreement, we have moved closer together in recognizing
the need for long-term change.
-446-
Monday, May 13, 1991
The unions and the city both have, as an element of their latest
positions, some form of collective bargaining. Over the next few
weeks, we will continue to endeavor to come to an agreement which
solves our long-term pioblem.
I wish to thank the Board, and Supervisors Jim Gonzalez and
Kevin Shelley in particular, for helping to maintain a climate of
civility during the course of our negotiations.
Our employee relations team, led by Deputy Mayor Claude Everhart
and Employee Relations Director Maggie Jacobsen, have spent hundreds
of hours meeting with unions trying to reach agreement.
I salute them, and the city's employee unions, for their sincere
effort to try to find a solution in the best interest of the public
and our workers.
Formally, both sides have agreed to declare an impasse, and will
continue negotiations with the help of a mediator. I remain
confident that an agreement can be reached.
Sincerely,
/s/Art Agnos
Consideration Continued

Statement to the Board of Supervisors on behalf of the Finance

BUDGET STATEMENT TO THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS
ON BEHALF OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
BY SUPERVISOR JIM GONZALEZ
CHAIR OF THE FINANCE COMMITTEE
July 15, 1991
The Finance Committee, consisting of Supervisors Kevin Shelley,
Terence Hallinan and the undersigned, present to the Board of
Supervisors its recommended budget for the City and County of San
Francisco for Fiscal Year 1991-92. The budget of approximately $2.4
billion is the City's fiscal plan for providing hundreds of essential
services to the citizens of San Francisco. Because of the drought
and the recent recession, the task of reviewing the Mayor's
recommended 1991-92 budget has been one of the most, if not the most,
difficult in recent memory. As a result, the Committee has made an
-688-
Mond.iy, July IS, l')91
intensive indepth review of the Mayor's recommended budget. The
difficulty of the Committee's task was compounded by the fact that
estimated yearend surplus funds, which are used to balance the new
budget, have been substantially depleted.
The Mayoi, who along with the Board of Supervisors was faced with
a project shortfall of up to $135.6 million, has already made a very
careful examination of the budget resulting in substantial reductions
from departmental requests. Thus, the Committee was faced with
attempting to further reduce the budget which has already been
carefully scrutinized, with a view toward cutting out all unneeded
items while ensuring that none of the Committee's cuts would result
in further reductions of existing service levels. I am pleased to
leport that after extensive cooperation from the City departments,
the Committee's objective has been accomplished.
The Committee is particularly pleased to submit its
recommendations to the Board of Supervisors with unanimity.
The budget submitted by the Finance Committee includes total
reductions of approximately $13.5 million from the budget submitted
by the Mayor. Net reductions, excluding work orders, amount to
approximately $12.3 million.
Of the $12.3 million in net budget reductions, approximately $5.1
million is from General Fund appropriations. Additionally, the
budget, as recommended by the Finance Committee, includes reserves on
appropriations of more than $10.1 million. These reserves would be
released, and expenditures allowed, only after further information is
submitted to the Committee.
COMPARATIVE BUDGET DATA
The 1990-91 budget, as finally adopted by the Mayor and the Board
of Supervisors, was $2,288.6 million. The 1991-92 budget of $2,401.9
million (excluding Mayor's budget adjustments) recommended by the
Mayor contains an increase of approximately $113.3 million over the
1990-91 budget adopted by the Board of Supervisors. The
recommendations of the Finance Committee for the 1991-92 City and
County budget are summarized as follows (in millions of dollars):
Mayor's Recommended 1991-92 Budget Excluding Reserves $ 2,401.9
Add Mayor's Budget Adjustments 7 . 2
Mayor's Adjusted 1991-92 Budget 2,409.1
Finance Committee Recommendations for adding
Capital Improvements 1.7
Finance Committee's Recommended Reductions ($13.5)
Less Amounts Reduced from Work Order Departments and
the Redevelopment Agency which will not reduce the
Total Budget (1.2) $( 12.3)
Finance Committee's Recommended 1991-92 Budget $ 2,398.5

Monday, July IS, 1991
Specific recommended reductions of the Finance Committee have
been provided separately to the Board of Supervisors. The effect of
these reconutiendat ions on each City and County department's budqet is
shown in the Attachment to this report. A summary of the highlights
and major recommended amendments of the mayor's budget by the Finance
Committee is included in the budget statement.

In response to Supervisor Hallinan's inquiry whether, under the
provisions of the Charter, at this point the Board has a balanced
budget before them and all of the Supervisors have had an
opportunity to make whatever motions they may have, the Board of
Supervisors is bounded under the Charter to vote in favor of this
budget, Deputy City Attorney Ted Lakey stated, "yes".
In response to Supervisor Hallinan's inquiry whether those
Supervisors who refuse to vote in favor of this budget are acting in
violation of the Charter, Mr. Lakey stated, "assuming the meeting is
adjourned, that would be the case".
In response to Supervisor Ward's inquiry what the Board's status
is if the budget is not adopted. Deputy City Attorney Ted Lakey
stated there are two possible results: the City could end up in
litigation and if the situation is not resolved by September 1, the
Controller would not have authority to make payments.
Mr. Lakey stated there is a provision in the Charter which
allows the Board to extend the August 1 deadline up to no later than
August 31, but the Board must keep in mind the legislation requires
two readings, not less than five days apart.
Supervisor Maher, seconded by Supervisor Hsieh, moved that the
Annual budget and its enabling ordinances be continued to July 29,
1991 and that the Board adjourn until Monday.
Motion refused adoption by the following vote:
Ayes: Supervisors Hsieh, Maher - 2.

Hallinan, Kennedy, Migden, Shelley, Ward - 9.
Supervisor Britt, seconded by Supervisor Alioto, moved to extend
the date to August 26, 1991 for final passage.
In response to Supervisor Gonzalez's inquiry what deadline the
Controller is under for paying bills and employees, Mr, John Madden
stated Charter Section 6.303 indicates no money shall be drawn from
the treasury of the city and county, nor shall any obligation for
the expenditure of any money be incurred except in pursuance of
appropriations provided by the annual budget. The interim
appropriation ordinance stays in effect until September 1. We could
continue to operate until September 1. After September 1, there is
no legal oasis to draw checks in payment of salaries, supplies or
obligations necessary. In short, the City would shut down except
for those items under court order.
Because the City Attorney advised that the Board has until
August 1 to adopt a motion to extend the deadline and there being no
objection. Supervisor Britt withdrew his motion.
