all of you for the roles you have played. supervisor mirkarimi, supervisor alioto-pier, and others who have been supportive from the beginning, thank you. but also, supervisor daly, i want to thank you for injecting significant fiscal reality into the discussion. supervisor campos played a significant role in helping to ensure that the agreement is tight. i want to thank all of the members of the city family. every single one of you who are here spent countless hours in recent weeks to pull this together. countless nights, countless phone calls. i also want to thank the representatives from the team that met with many of us and worked patiently with us to work through the complicated details. this is not a simple agreement, but it is a very thorough agreement. we will obviously need to in the future approve other leases and deals related to this, but i think where we are right now,

this is truly, i believe, not just the best bid for the city, but the best bid internationally for the america's cup. the no. waterfront option, from everyone's perspective, i think, not only will result in a much better experience for spectators and for the race, but it is much better, i think, from a business perspective for the city as well as for the team. with that, i urge all of us to vote for that, and again, thank everyone for your efforts. commissioner mirkarimi: supervisor daly. commissioner daly: i was not trying to get the last word from our board president, but a couple of other folks to thank. but in the process of thanking them, let me say this -- ultimately hear in these chambers -- ultimately here in

these chambers, we are the quasi-official boosters of sand francisco, but when it comes down to what our real responsibility and obligations are, it is really to the people of this city and the resources that they entrust us with and a responsibility to make sure that government can run. i have talked often about how little impact even very powerful politicians like the president of the united states have when it comes to dealing with the ups and downs of the economy. in these chambers, our power is really are on the periphery, affecting weather joblessness is up or down, who gets employment. who gets left out, that sort of thing, but when it comes to the

city's treasury, when it comes to the annual budget process, and what we do with the people's money in our accounts, we have a great deal power. so i am happy that i can come aboard. i know that i have very exciting language when i opposed the previous term sheet. the reason why i amplified the language is because i knew that the city just could not afford that type of outlay of cash and that loss on our books. regardless of how big of a booster any of us would want to be for san francisco and putting san francisco in the spotlight and doing a little bit too improve the regional economy, ultimately, our undying allegiance is to the city and county in terms of local government and the resources that are here. to that effect, let me thank the

budget chair here on the board of supervisors. john avalos, who was a nay vote initially because it appeared that it was going to cost the city too much and also a very heartfelt thanks to the team of harvey rose and associates. specifically fred russo. thank you for your work on this. thank you for actually looking at the numbers and getting us the information that we needed to make an informed decision. i think court staff was able to pick up on that and come forward with a proposal that not only works in terms of the city's treasury, but i think it also is going to work better for the port of san francisco and forwarding an effort that has been going on since i first arrived here to deliver a cruise

ship terminal. it is more responsible in terms of the long-term use of our pork property. i think that if it's much better in the area that we have had supervisor campos do a lot of work and in the past three years in terms of making sure the process is fair -- i think that'd it's much better in the area that we have had supervisor campos do a lot of work in in the past three years in terms of making sure the process is fair. with that said, we have one more amendment to propose. that is i need to borrow the cop on january 5 -- barbie -- borrow the cup on january 5. if that could be accommodated, i

would appreciate that. commissioner chiu: colleagues, with that, if we could now move to a roll call vote. >> on item 53, alioto-pier aye. avalos aye. campos aye. chiu aye. chu aye. daly aye. dufty aye. elsbernd aye. mar aye. maxwell aye. mirkarimi aye. there are 11 ayes. commissioner chiu: this resolution is adopted.

appreciate your indulgence over the last several weeks. i have reported back to you that instead of advancing the legislation at first for a vote, which we know we have the votes for at the time, we had decided to work alternatively with the mayor's office and the department of the environment to help us bring together representatives of the pharmaceutical industry. as i had reported to you, we have had some very constructive meetings, by a particular with one association known as pharma, which represents a sizable consortium of pharmaceutical manufacturers, many that are based throughout the united states national and multinational. very strong lobbying arm. we have managed to get to a place where one of the representatives has offered upwards of about 100 or $110,000, based on the proposal

that we have asked for in order to implement what we think would be an effective pilot, they have fallen considerably short, and when we asked retail operators like safeway or walgreen's, who are the principal players with regard to the largest orbit of players that sell pharmaceuticals, we need them at the table, and they just have not been there, so i want to thank the mayor's office, the department of environment, the sentences the police apartment, the department of public works, and the puc for coming together for trying to craft what we think would be a strong alternative, but the pharmaceutical industry just has not really come together in a robust way, as we had hoped for. with that said, maybe they will think about it, but i'm not so

sure that they will because based on their track record in other states where they have spent millions of dollars to defeat the state legislature to do the very thing that we are trying to do here today, we thought that our proposal is quite frankly extremely modest as it was and is, and would seem less threatening, but still, they are reacting with the same kind of ferocity as they have in state government to make sure that a simple take back drug disposal program where it is a bucket with a lid and it is regulated would be administered, and to try to block us from doing that i think is just unconscionable. your support would be appreciated. commissioner chiu: thank you. any additional discussion? why don't we take a roll call vote on this item. >> alioto-pier no. avalos aye. campos aye. chiu aye.
