this is a critical moment. san francisco should say this should not happen. they are interested in maximizing market potential. this is despicable and should not happen in san francisco. i am a longtime listeners since i moved here in 1999. a person was yanked off the air and turned off the transmitter in the middle of my show. as much as i would like to get my show back on the air, this is not about the music, this is about public access to the airwaves.

public access is lidle. 90.3 should be accessible to the committee that created. >> public access is vital -- public access is vital. this will likely be a college radio station as we know them. nothing against college radio, i like some of it myself. more importantly, we need to get these local progress back on the air. this is an opportunity and an obligation to make this sale stop in the community have access to purchasing the station and getting it under control once again. think you. >> thank you, next speaker.

cultural opportunities. this was a representation. i know a lot of people who are involved. many people know that the princess would not have been known. this is really important. it would be a shame to finance resources that we have had here. if the cannot have this utilize, it would not be a give-and-take. en i think this city needs these

young people and i think that this generation expensn needs k. >> as she made me really sad. i am a long time listener and a first-time speaker. the sale of the frequencies that not only affecting the student body nor is this simply affecting the citizens of san francisco proper. our reaction was swift. we are from points beyond and we are reading and we are mad as hell but of -- as hell. i am here today just to show my

his disciple and doctrine. jesus said, i spoke openly to the world. i always talk in the synagogue and with the temple. in secret have i said nothing. they know what i said. it is really ironic when you go to psalm 110, it says that the lord is sworn and will not repent. the lord shall strike three kings in the day of wrath. >> thank you very much. everyone has been given the same amount of time. >> i am here to support the

resolution opposing the sale of kusf. i am a deejay on a cultural program which is headed for our 29th anniversary. we were interrupted this past weekend. i would like to urge all members of the board to consider even among their constituency that letting this deal go through is bad news for everyone. this is a bad deal. i cannot see it being good for the university of san francisco , for the faculty of usf

think of those college students had, those parents and other leaders in all the districts and how this will affect everyone. it would be across and it would be because my personal experience. on we had a listening audience at least with my show which includes members of law enforcement, teacher on the left, people on the right, etc.. the students are involved and to not receive enough encouragement in from the current leadership.

and there is a diminishment of the resources of the public airwaves. -- >> there is a diminishing of the resources of the public airwaves. they had always wanted to move -- i had always wanted to move to san francisco as it represented my values. when i got a postcard, it made me think there is a reason i can

move to san francisco. for the past 19 years, i have been a volunteer at kusf. a large part of my identity is greatly influx. basically, i wanted to come here and express how important this community resources not only to the city of san francisco but to the world at large. thank you. >> i am three years homeless in the homeless shelters and i am concerned when those committee chaired people will be elected where as we can bring it to them and they can bring it to the full board.

we would like to avoid the payment penalty we are going through. we need some justice in the homeless senior situation. >> thank you. >> thank you for your time. i am the program coordinator at kusf. i support the resolution to block the sale and hopefully give us the right to hunt down by volunteer all of my time for years. i have been at the station since

kusf has really helped musicians like me and like all of the other radio stations. i would do anything i can to support them and what they represent. thank you. >> hello, i am a longtime volunteer. i would like to thank the volunteers for supporting and allowing us to represent. i want to make sure a couple of things, the takeover was very much based on deception a week prior to the shutdown.

we were lied to and told that we would be moved to another building. the other thing that is a deception is the argument was not a resource to students. we are teaching the students had to do radio, this is a valuable asset. pinkie. -- thank you. >> i am one of the volunteer deejays. i am speaking in support of the resolution and i urge you to support this. free-form that started in san francisco in the 60's.

the radio became more structured. when i moved to the bay area, kusf was the station to listen to win there was no one else. i feel like my head and my hands had been cut off his in the station. i don't see how it benefits anyone to not have the wittiest issued -- the radio station

turned into something for other media. we have lost a cultural gem with it being taken off of the air. please do whatever you can to bring back free format radio. thank you. >> thank you. >> i am a musician and also i support the bay area with art. i should -- we should say a kusf because it helps with people to learn about the community. when i first came into san francisco, i had never heard any type of music like this before so i think that you should really care about our community because that makes san

francisco different. this might happen to you. bad as all i would like to say. thank you. >> are there any members of the public that with wish to speak? denver public comment is closed. colleagues, why don't we move to our special order item. >> item 14 is a public hearing of those interested in the decisions of public works. approving a tentative price a map for a conversion. item 15 is approving the across
