property with our 1875 Trousdale property. (0.33 acres)• Of note, Hetch Hetchy easement that transects the property renders ~ 2 acres

unavailable to build upon, thus the planned public open space discussed since startof the project.

• 2) Sharing public comments and discussing options relative to the smaller developmentfootprint and the economics of construction, retaining the planned public communityamenities and benefits and increasing affordable units.

B. Two independent legal opinions were obtained to reaffirm/or correct PHCD’s understanding ofstatutory guidelines for healthcare districts relative to construction of facilities.

DATE: March 21, 2019

TO: PHCD Board of Directors

FROM: Cheryl A. Fama, CEO

RE: Revised Employee PTO Policy

Background:

Upon processing CEO's PTO increase approved at the January 2019 Board meeting, CFO Yee discovered the approved policy revision four years ago reflected a change in the annual PTO accrual days; however, the accrual rate per hour calculation did not change.

From 2015 through March 30, 2019 this error resulted in awarding “extra PTO” hours' worth approximately $6,500 to PHCD staff.

Recommendation:

Given this was a management error, and the total impact does not meet the materiality trigger used by PHCD’s auditors, I am recommending:

1. The Policy will be revised with the corrected accrual rates/hour calculations.

2. The current employee PTO accrual rate will be adjusted going forward effective April 1stand “payback” by employees is not required.

A blue-lined and a clean copy are attached to this memo.

ACTION REQUIRED

Board Policy Paid Time Off

The Peninsula Health Care District (PHCD) believes that employees should have opportunities to enjoy time away from work to help balance their lives. PHCD recognizes that employees have diverse needs for time off from work. PHCD has established this paid time off (PTO) policy to meet those needs. The policy contains provisions for vacation time and sick leave. The benefits of PTO are that it promotes a flexible approach to time off. Employees are accountable and responsible for managing their own PTO hours to allow for adequate reserve if there is a need to cover vacation, illness or disability, appointments, emergencies or other needs that require time off from work.

1. Procedure:Every employee, whether exempt or non-exempt, full-time or part-time, who works for PHCD for at least 30 days within a year from the commencement of employment, will be entitled to accrue PTO at the employee’s regular rate of pay.

2. Availability:Accrued PTO is available for use in the pay period following completion of 30 days of employment. All hours thereafter are available for use in the pay period following the pay period in which they are accrued.

3. Accrual and Payment of PTO:Accruals are based upon all hours worked for PHCD. Employees will earn PTO hours according to the respective accrual rate per hour. (See Table Below.) Length of service determines the rate at which the employee will accrue PTO. PTO does not accrue on unpaid leaves of absence or PTO cash outs upon termination. Employees become eligible for the new higher accrual rate on the first day of the pay period in which the employee’s anniversary date falls.

Years of Service Accrual Rate per Hour Annual PTO Accrual* Maximum Accrual** Less than 1 year 0.05000 13 days N/A

One to three years 0.07692 20 days 30 days

Four to ten years 0.96154 25 days 37.5 days

10 or more years 011538 30 days 45 days

Adopted: April 24, 2008 Reviewed: July 2010, July 2012, July 2015

Approved: August 27, 2015

* When PTO is used, an employee is required to request payment of PTO hours according to his/herregularly scheduled workday. For example, if an employee works a six-hour day, he/she wouldrequest six hours of PTO when taking that day off.

** Any accrued and unused PTO remaining at the end of the year will roll over to the following year. The employee will continue to accrue PTO until they reach the listed maximum. No PTO hours will accrue beyond the maximum accruals listed.

4. Use and Scheduling of PTO:• When using PTO for any of the following, if the need for PTO is foreseeable, the employee

must give PHCD reasonable notice, and if the need for PTO is not foreseeable, notice must begiven as soon as practicable: The diagnosis, care, or treatment of an existing healthcondition, or preventive care (including annual physical or flu shots) for an employee or anemployee’s family member (including the employee’s parent, child, spouse, registereddomestic partner, grandparent, grandchild, and sibling), or when the employee is a victim ofdomestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking.

• When using PTO for other reasons, including, but not limited to vacations, PTO must bescheduled in advance, and is subject to supervisory approval, department staffing needs andestablished departmental procedures.

• Unscheduled absences will be monitored. An employee will be counseled when thefrequency of unscheduled absences adversely affects the operations of the department. Thesupervisor may request the employee provide a statement from his or her health careprovider at any time concerning the justification for an unscheduled absence.

• PTO may not be used for missed time because an employee reports late to work.• PTO is paid at the employee’s straight time rate. PTO is not part of any overtime calculation.• Employees are required to use available PTO when taking time off from work with the

exception of a company-required absence due to low workload or absences occasioned bythe company.

• PTO may be taken in increments as low as one hour.• Employees may not borrow against their PTO banks; therefore, no advance leave will be

granted.

5. Payment upon Termination:• After one year of service, employees are eligible to cash out their PTO.• PTO balances in excess of 40 hours may be cashed out.• For PTO cash out, eligible employees are required to indicate the cash out amount on their

time sheet.• The benefit will be paid in the next regular pay cycle.

UPDATE ON DISTRICT ACTIVITIES SINCE MSR Presented to the Local Agency Formation Commission 

March 20, 2019 

The Peninsula Health Care District’s (PHCD) MSR process was initiated in August 2016 with the 

report and recommendations finalized by the Commission’s acceptance September 20, 2017.  

Since then, PHCD’s programs and outreach have continued and expanded with a focus on 

increasing services to residents outside of PHCD’s boundaries in direct response to the request 

by the Commission. 

PHCD Community Health Investment Activities 

PHCD community benefit activities can be divided into three major categories: 1. Owning and operating health facilities2. Addressing gaps in needed services through Special Funding Initiatives3. Conducting an annual Community Grants Program

What follows is a brief review of examples for each activity with a focus on the period between 

2017‐ today.  

PHCD FACILITIES: 

A. Sonrisas Dental Health, Inc., 430 N. El Camino, San Mateo & 210 San Mateo Road, Half

Moon Bay: Sonrisas Centers are non‐profit community clinics that serve all ages, all those with

mobility and cognitive challenges, and do so irrespective of insurance status.  Sonrisas also

provides outreach to senior residential facilities, schools and, through its mobile program and a

contract with the County, direct care in Pescadero to farmworkers and their families.  The San

Mateo Center is in a PHCD owned building and serves as the corporate business hub for both,

as well as, staffs and dispatches the mobile and outreach programs throughout the County.

Sonrisas is a separate corporation from PHCD; however, in August 2017, the PHCD Board 

stepped in to save both Centers when the previous Minnesota leadership announced that after 

only 2 years of operations they were closing the facilities.  PHCD now appoints four of the seven 

Board seats, continues to be the primary funder (Averaging $900,000/year for uncompensated 

care.) and provides the consulting services of its CEO and CFO via a Management Services 

Agreement.

Patients come from throughout the County and beyond because Sonrisas takes Denti‐Cal and 

does so with a far shorter waiting time than the County’s FQHC facilities can handle – I.e. 

Sonrisas within a month vs. County’s wait of 7‐12 months for access to basic services.  Of note, 

the mission of both Sonrisas and PHCD is ‘access to basic care for all’. To that end, Sonrisas has 

been in negotiations with the County health CFO for a year and a half to establish a provider 

contract arrangement to open Sonrisas San Mateo Center’s capacity to County FQHC patients 

on that waiting list.  

The San Mateo Center serves approximately 50% PHCD residents, 40% County residents outside 

of PHCD and 10% out of the County.  The Half Moon Bay Center’s patients are 100% Coastside 

residents. 

Since July 2017 through December 2018, Sonrisas has provided 16,710 dental 

visits of which 69% were Denti‐Cal, Farmworkers, and Uninsured sliding scale patients. 

B. The Trousdale Wellness Center, 1875 Trousdale, Burlingame:  On July 9, 2018, PHCD

opened this Wellness Center to provide exercise and health education programs to all, 18 years

and older, with a special focus on healthy aging, preventative fitness and wellness classes.  The

Center teaches healthy living self‐management skills and provides amenities to foster a

socialization gathering place for seniors to promote “connected‐aging” which has been

empirically documented to contributes to quality of life in later years.  The building is owned by

PHCD and the opportunity to launch this program arose when the prior tenant of nine years

terminated their lease.  PHCD invested in this as a pilot or model for what has been included in

the planning for the District’s future 6‐acre development where the previous Peninsula Hospital

had been.  Membership is at 214 and classes – Seniors in Motion, Tai Chi, Yoga, Balance and Fall

Prevention ‐ are regularly at capacity.  While open to all, most clients are from within the

District.

C. The Trousdale Assisted Living/Memory Care Community, 1600 Trousdale, Burlingame:  A

facility built and owned by PHCD and operated by our partner, Eskaton, a non‐profit

organization with more than 50 years’ experience in all levels of senior housing.  The Trousdale

was licensed on December 21, 2018, admitted its first resident on December 26th and as of

March 12th, there are 69 residents (53 assisted living and 16 memory care).  All residents to

date are from San Mateo County. PHCD is committed to offering 10 Below Market Rate units at

opening and during stabilization in the first 12‐24 months. The Board’s plan has been since

inception and continues to be to expand the number and amount of discount once stabilized.

SPECIAL INITIATIVES ‐ ADDRESSING GAPS IN NEEDED SERVICES: 

A. Teen Mental Health 3‐year Pilot with San Mateo Union High School District (SMUHSD):

Launched in 2017, this program was a collaborative effort brought to realty by PHCD’s

leadership, facilitation, funding and partnership with Stanford’s Center for Youth and Mental

Health Well‐Being leadership team.  SMUHSD serves eight high schools which have a diverse 

8,500 student population. PHCD’s support covered licensed staff, programs and Stanford 

consulting to assist SMUHSD in consolidating and coordinating all counseling and behavior 

health services throughout their schools and collecting data to identify opportunities to evolve 

services for improved outcomes.  

B. Assessing Behavioral Health Issues at K‐8 levels:  Given findings during the high school pilot

above and given PHCD’s awareness of the growing behavioral health challenges faced by

administrators and teachers in the elementary schools, PHCD engaged Stanford’s Gardner

Center Research team to do a retrospective review of school records of the current and

recently graduated students in PHCD school districts to look for patterns and indicators that

could be used to develop actionable interventions to assist student transitions from elementary

to middle to high school.  This project will sample students across the socioeconomic

demographics of PHCD.

C. SF Hep B Free Bay Area‐ Expansion Program

In 2017, PHCD was a founding partner in bringing the SF Hep B Free program expansion into

San Mateo County.  The San Mateo program focuses on the northern San Mateo County due to

the number of high‐risk residents in the Daly City and South San Francisco areas.  The purpose

of this initiative is to raise awareness about the risks of Hepatitis B, screen high‐risk

populations, and educate physicians.  PHCD has provided office space and event support for the

launching press conference, educational programs and screenings. Of note, a Burlingame

screening in 2018 was held using both PHCD buildings at 1819 and 1875 Trousdale for a

Saturday/Sunday event that screened more that 300 residents from throughout the County.

D. San Mateo County Oral Health Strategic Plan Implementation:

From 2017‐2019, PHCD joined Sequoia Healthcare District and County Health to fund two

County positions tasked at coordinating the implementation of the San Mateo County Oral

Health Strategic Plan. The Strategic Plan focuses on increasing access to dental services and oral

health education for at‐risk populations, increasing awareness of the importance of good oral

health to an individual’s overall health, building oral health provider capacity, and establishing

infrastructure, staffing, funding, and surveillance.  PHCD sits on the Oral Health Coalition Core

Team as a funder and to ensure that the Sonrisas Dental Health Centers are integrated

providers in carrying out the plan.  This PHCD support of funding and time is another example

of serving the needs of the most vulnerable within and outside of the PHCD boundaries.

3. COMMUNITY GRANTS PROGRAM:

This program awards operating grants to non‐profit health service providers that serve PHCD 

residents and beyond.  The Board establishes annual health priorities to guide the grant process 

and the Community Health Investment Committee of the Board (2 Directors, 7 citizens‐at‐large) 

makes recommendations to the Board.  Over the last two years, $3M has gone to 50 different

community partners.  Below are just three examples of grants that serve residents beyond the 

PHCD boundaries. 

A. First 5 San Mateo County‐ Help Me Grow Call Center:

In 2018, PHCD partnered with First 5 of San Mateo County to launch a County‐wide Help Me

Grow Call Center, a centralized telephone access point to support families with questions or

concerns about their child’s development. This is a collective impact effort and funding from

PHCD is being used to launch the service which will serve residents throughout San Mateo

County.

B. San Mateo County Office of Education‐ School Climate Program

In 2016 and again in 2017, PHCD funded a train‐the‐trainer school climate program through a

partnership with San Mateo County Office of Education (SMCOE). The program focused on

training school staff and administrators in the areas of restorative justice, dimensions of

gender, and threat assessment. The SMCOE leveraged funding from PHCD and secured grants

from other agencies, enabling them to expand the program outside of PHCD boundaries to

Jefferson Elementary and Jefferson Union High School Districts which serve the students in Daly

City, South San Francisco, and Pacifica.

C. San Mateo County Health Foundation‐ Watch Me Grow

In 2019, PHCD has partnered with San Mateo County Health Foundation and San Mateo

Medical Center to fund the Watch Me Grow program which provides social and developmental

screenings to pediatric patients from 0 to 3 that would otherwise not be screened. Watch Me

Grow staff are in five clinics throughout San Mateo Medical Center’s service area including

clinics in South San Francisco, Daly City and Coastside. PHCD’s funding is to support the Care

Coordinator staff within the clinics.

In summary, PHCD makes every effort to stay in touch with and serve the health priorities and 

needs of our constituents; however, never with a blind eye to the areas of need throughout the 

County.  We hope you find this summary and the examples shared as being demonstrative of

Update On District Activities since MSR September 17, 2017 Update provided to LAFCo March 13, 2019

Resolution 1220 Adopted 9-22-2017 recommended that the Districts and LAFCo staff pursue with the County and cities the feasibility of expanding boundaries of the Districts to include medically underserved areas currently excluded from health care district boundaries. However at this point, current law only allows Sequoia Healthcare District to provide services to residents of the district. Sequoia Healthcare District supports services to the most vulnerable and medically underserved residents of our District in many ways, some of which are listed below. Many of the programs and facilities we support, such as the Ravenswood Clinic, are located outside the District’s territorial limits but serve a substantial number of District residents, and our support is aligned to this level of service. Since our mission is to improve the health of all District residents, we also support many programs that are not directed specifically to the most under-served or most vulnerable residents but may include them. For example:

Our 70 Strong Resource Directory is aimed at keeping older adults active and engaged in the community as they age. This program benefits all older adults, regardless of economic status.

Since 2010, our Healthy Schools Initiative, the largest of our programs, has supported the physical and emotional health of over 28,000 students and their families annually who attend the 8 public school districts in our area.

We are the main funder of the Samaritan House Free Medical Clinic which provides care to uninsured adults whom no other means of obtaining or paying for care is available.

Our annual Community Grants program provides $2.4 million dollars to more than 50 non-profits each year that address a variety of health needs and collectively serve more than 30,000 District residents of all ages and ethnicities.

Altogether, our grants and programs directly benefit 60,000 residents per year, or about one out of every 4.5 residents. We are proud of our success at serving the tens of thousands of District residents who have come to rely on us and our partners.

NEW PROGRAM PROPOSAL A BURLINGAME MEMORY CAFÉ

PROPOSAL: PHCD, in partnership with the Burlingame Park and Recreation Department and Burlingame Rotary Club, will establish a Memory Café Program to serve residents with Dementia/Alzheimer’s and their care companions.

WHAT IS A MEMORY CAFÉ? A social gathering where people with memory loss and their care companions can come together in a safe, supportive environment. Guests can share conversation over a cup of tea or coffee in a relaxed atmosphere that sometimes includes music, art or other forms of entertainment. Memory cafes usually take place for a couple of hours once or twice a month in a variety of locations including community centers, museums, libraries and restaurants.

WHAT IS THE NEED?: • “10% of those 65 and older has Alzheimer’s or other dementias”.• “Today, someone in the U.S. develops Alzheimer’s every 65 seconds.”• “83% of the help provided to those with Alzheimer’s comes from family members,

friends or other unpaid caregivers.”• “59% of family caregivers of people with Alzheimer’s or other dementias rated the

emotional stress of caregiving as high or very high…..As symptoms worsen, the care required of the care giver can result in increased emotional stress and depression leading to new or exacerbated health problems…” [Alzheimer’s Association 2018 Disease Facts and Figures]

• “In San Mateo County, from 2010 to 2030, the people over 65 will increase 72%(157,400) and those over 85 will increase 148% (30,165)” [SMCo Aging Model: BetterPlanning for Tomorrow]

• “Older adults (65 years of age and older) make up 12.5 percent of the population ofSan Mateo County. The highest percentage of older adults (18.7 percent) is inthe communities of Burlingame Hills/ Burlingame Southwest/ Hillsborough/Hillsdale/ Millbrae West/ San Bruno Central/ San Mateo West.” [LAFCO’s 2017Healthcare District’s Municipal Service Review]

HOW WILL THE PLAN ADDRESS THE NEED?: A Memory Café Program in Burlingame would be the first such program in San Mateo

County and would be serving the area of the County with the greatest number of older adults. A monthly opportunity to go out to a safe and supportive environment provides socialization,

DATE: March 17, 2019

TO: PHCD Board of Directors

FROM: Vickie Yee, CFO

SUBJECT: Revised Trousdale Assisted Living Budget for FY2019

______________________________________________________________________________

ACTION REQUESTED:

Management has reviewed the proposed revisions to the FY 2019 budget for The Trousdale

assisted living community budget submitted by Eskaton and recommend approval.

The original budget anticipated a July 1, 2018 opening and therefore reflects 12 months of

operations with a slow ramp-up ending with78 units occupied at June 30, 2019, producing a net

loss of ($4,989M). The Trousdale actually opened on December 26, 2018, which leaves 6

months of operations in the fiscal year. The proposed revised budget has been adjusted to

accurately reflect the opening date and our actual admission experience in January and

February. At the end of the fiscal year, the proposed revised budget will have 70 units occupied

and produce a net loss of ($2,686K), $2,302K better than the original budget even with 8 fewer

occupied units.

There are no changes to the rates used for operating expense. Below is a comparison between

our existing budget and the proposed revised budget.

2019-2020 COMMUNICATIONS PLAN PHCD | MacKenzie March 21, 2019

I. OBJECTIVES OVERVIEWPHCD leadership has requested a more aggressive communication, visibility and outreach campaign to reach its constituents using a variety of mediums, one that builds from recent successes and integrates fresh, new activities. MacKenzie has developed a “menu” of tactics and initiatives proposed for the District’s 2019-2020 Communications Plan. These recommendations are based on our 35 years of success working with other public entities and knowledge of PHCD over our twelve-year relationship. We believe these tactics will have a positive impact on the following goals and objectives:

• Increase awareness of PHCD as a community benefit among District residents, specificallytaxpayers.

o Tactics have been developed to focus on the individual cities within the District, tacklingeach one in phases until all six cities have been covered. Based on PHCD team input, thefirst two cities should be: San Bruno: Most northern city; second highest population of youth and young

adults within PHCD boundaries, undergoing significant amount of newdevelopment and has a new city manager.

San Mateo: Largest PHCD city, covers one of lowest income zip codes in county,location of District’s dental program and has a new city manager.

• Build the PHCD e-mail database.• Assess “reach” of currently used mediums and determine which should be refreshed and

continued on a regular basis for consistent communications to key stakeholders (Districtresidents, seniors, local govt./city officials, and media).

• Produce more original content related to District health priorities and programs to releasethroughout the year using a variety of mediums such as:

o E-newsletters focusing on awareness campaigns such as National Children’s DentalHealth Month, Mental Health Awareness month, Colon Cancer Screening Month, etc.

o Develop topic specific PHCD Blog posts, “authored” by each of the Directors that can becross-promoted on Facebook (paid and organic posts) and in e-blasts. Possible Topics:

• Colon Cancer- A Preventable Disease: Director Cappel• Palliative & Hospice Care-The Impact on Quality of Life: Director Galligan• Homelessness in Our Affluent County: Director Pagliaro• Healthy Eating to Attack Obesity – Director Navarro• Growing Behavioral Health Crisis for 12-24 years: Director Zell

o Reinstitute a short community health education presentation at each Board meeting.

II. AWARENESS SURVEYBefore launching an awareness campaign, MacKenzie recommends conducting a formal awareness survey of District residents to establish a baseline that will enable us to measure progress and impact of these new tactics. In addition, survey results will help us focus on key audiences and what is important to them. An initial baseline survey can range from $25,000 to $50,000 depending on the sampling methodology and medium (Internet or phone calls).

Mackenzie is conducting research into local firms that are established, have provided opinion research and strategic guidance to non-profit organizations, government agencies, businesses, and political campaigns and are respected in this market. A more detailed report on this research will be presented separately.

Roles: MacKenzie

Responsibilities: Research survey options and associated costs from two or more firms for comparison and recommendation of next steps.

III. AWARENESS-BUILDING INITIATIVES

PHCD in the Community: Methods to Increase Visibility

1. Showcase the Board of Directors:

It is highly recommended that the Board of Directors be an integral part of this effort. MacKenzie and PHCD staff will handle the “behind-the-scenes” work and will provide the Directors with a menu of activities to consider and sign up for; staff will then seek out opportunities to showcase the Board and District. Examples would include:

• Writing blogs, op-ed pieces, messages for Chamber Bulletins, community partner newsletters,etc.

• Booking presentations to the city councils, Board of Supervisors, LAFCO Commission, Chambers,Rotary and Lion Clubs, Library lecture programs, etc.

Event sponsorships with speaking opportunities:

• Survey Directors for willingness, topics, availability, and identify local opportunities.• MacKenzie will draft op/ed, blog article content; seek out opportunities to broaden reach

through social media.

2. Facebook Advertising

• Continue with Facebook advertising to increase traffic through page followers and postengagement.

• Use Facebook as a platform to inform and engage with District residents.

Roles: MacKenzie will manage Facebook campaigns including drafting regular posts. PHCD will propose content and review and approve MacKenzie drafts.

Page 38: PUBLIC NOTICE - Peninsula Health Care District...2019/03/28  · a. Approval of Closed Session Meeting Minutes from March 19, 2019 b. Pursuant to Health & Safety Code Section 32106:

3. NextDoor

PHCD should utilize this social media tool more actively throughout the District to promote meetings and educational events and to monitor the impact of communications campaigns and town hall meetings. Given NextDoor is currently not admitting any more public agencies, PHCD should identify a staff member, Director, or trusted neighbor who will regularly monitor the conversation around District initiatives and bring findings to the attention of PHCD staff.

Roles: PHCD to identify monitors, post announcements, manage feedback and encourage “friends of the District” to post on their NextDoor pages.

4. New Mover Campaign

PHCD should view new residents as a target market and focus specific outreach tactics to those moving into the area.

• Buy list of new homeowners monthly/quarterly?• Mail out a PHCD welcome/introduction letter and small gift (E.g. magnet, notepad, mindfulness

wand, etc.)• Compile a small information packet and ask Chambers to include with their welcome materials.• Send second welcome letter with postage-free sign up cards to get on PHCD e-mailing list.• Follow up with an annual “PHCD Welcome Reception.” Agenda: small PHCD open house with lots

of “meet your neighbor” time.

Roles: MacKenzie will purchase lists, draft letters and mailing content, refresh sign up tools for email list, FlashVote etc. PHCD will approve mailing content, work with Chambers, and manage annual event.

5. Programmatic Partnerships: PHCD Speaker Series

• PHCD provides space and marketing support, partner provides content• Consider utilizing PHCD spaces depending on topic and audience size. E.g. Trousdale Wellness

Center, The Trousdale, District office, San Mateo Sonrisas, etc.• One event per quarter.

Roles: PHCD will arrange venues, speakers, partners and possible sponsors, and will identify targeted audience for invitation. MacKenzie will design and produce event flyers/invitations, assist with mailings, prepare press releases, and pursue media coverage.

PHCD to pursue this initiative with an eye to the Trousdale Wellness Center as a potential new draw.

6. Develop Infographics

• For PHCD Strategic Plan 2019-2022• Highlighting current PHCD programs/projects – The Trousdale, The Trousdale Wellness Center,

Sonrisas Dental Health, and the Peninsula Wellness Community.• How many served by community grants partners for a given year punctuated with specific

examples of how PHCD is making a difference today.

Page 39: PUBLIC NOTICE - Peninsula Health Care District...2019/03/28  · a. Approval of Closed Session Meeting Minutes from March 19, 2019 b. Pursuant to Health & Safety Code Section 32106:

Roles: Mackenzie will collaborate on content and target audience and will develop a template so each one has the same look and will set parameters for content. PHCD will provide content and approve final copy.

7. Annual Report/Community Benefit Report

Use one of the four newsletters per year as the annual report edition. Consider the fall edition for this purpose to incorporate the previous fiscal year financial performance to strategic goals for the year that correspond to that budget.

Roles: MacKenzie to provide recommendations on what the report could look like and the kind of metrics to include. PHCD will provide content and final approval.

8. Making A Difference Moment

Add a “Making a Difference Moment” presentation at the start of each Board meeting to showcase a resident who has personally benefited from a direct District program or one from a community health/wellness partner. Request authorization from speaker to use any photos or quotes in communications pieces.

Roles: PHCD will schedule presentations. MacKenzie will incorporate photos/videos into social media posts.

IV. NEXT STEPS

• Confirm what current activities will continue along with this aggressive campaign, such asadvertising designs, maintaining mailing lists, newsletter production, etc.

• Confirm roles and responsibilities for all these functions.• Develop a budget.

This land is our land

Editor,

The opposition is mounting and has now assumed the proportions of a brushfire.

Elected officials, faith leaders, senior advocates, affordable housing advocates and concerned community members have all joined together to express their dismay at the plans of the Peninsula Health are District to misuse a valuable piece of public

land.

The land in question is the site where Peninsula Hospital used to stand. At a time when exorbitant housing costs deprive Peninsula individuals and families of their ability to

thrive, and in some cases even survive, the PHCD board plans to build hundreds of units

of housing on the site — not affordable housing, but expensive market rate.

U.S. Rep. Jackie Speier, D-San Mateo, called for the PHCD board to put the brakes on its existing plan and convene a community process to gain input on current community needs. This was in recognition of the fact that the board’s existing plan was hatched years ago in the wake of the foreclosure crisis when housing costs were in decline. It was

a different world at the time, and community needs have changed.

The call to re-evaluate the plan has been echoed by state Sen. Jerry Hill, D-San Mateo;

Assemblyman Kevin Mullin, D-South San Francisco; Foster City Mayor Sam Hindi; San Bruno Mayor Rico Medina; San Mateo Councilman Joe Goethals; Burlingame Councilman Michael Brownrigg; and many others. As the chorus of voices grows, we can only hope that the PHCD board will sit up and listen. In the words of Woody Guthrie,

this land is our land, and it must be used to address our most pressing public needs.

Karyl Eldridge, Burlingame
