paulson. we met in o work group. they were passed by the board of supervisors. youthey were both up one time homeless. i think it would be done public policy for this committee to put a shelter director on the committee. the committee is supposed to do oversight of its shelters common and i think they are dealing with a conflict of -- who do oversight of its shelters, and i think they are doing conflict of interest.

this would increase the work load for the other members. they would have to do an additional inspections. i think it is bad policy if a shelter director would sit on the committee. >> public comment is now closed. madam clerk, please correct me if i am wrong, but i want to indicate that seats one will remain vacant because applicants are withdrawing their application, so we are looking at seats 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. is that correct? >> can you repeat which people withdrew nominations?

>> i did appreciate the way we are fitting it in, but i think amanda would be great, and i think cathy would be great, too, for those seats three and four. we have a letter for you. it is amanda we do not have. i am real uncomfortable of appointing someone who has not shown on up, and may be the better way to go would be to give amanda a chance to continue

this so the rev. ken show of and give me a chance to vent the rev. verses amanda. i do not want to blindly go with someone who has not been here. 3 and 4 i would like to hold on to greater >> what about item six sonoma -- 3 and 4 would like to hold onto. >> what about item six hamas -- item 6? >> i am fine with will daily for a seat five. >> great. do we have a motion? >> mr. cases only qualified for two, three, and fou region -- mr. pitts is only qualified for

>> hello, everybody. thank you for coming. on behalf of phil and our two daughters, we want to thank you for coming to the swearing in today. let's get the program under way. as you know, san francisco has a new mayor. [applause] mayor edwin lee was sworn in yesterday afternoon. we are honored to have been here with us at the end of his first full day as mayor. now that you are mayor, your day is just beginning. please welcome mayor edwin lee.

[applause] >> thank you, susan. yes, i am almost through with the first day and i have been asking staff, when can i crack the first joke? i have not been able to do that. i am honored and proud to be here today for the swearing in of a very good and longtime friend phil ting. i do not know if many of you know this but we do have one particular thing in common. it is not height, nor is it facial hair. what we do have in common is that we both work for one of the great agencies in san francisco, the asian law caucus. [applause] i know that having spent many years there, when phil started

heading it up, we were both trained for solid community work, working on behalf of diverse communities on diverse issues, helping those who needed help, those who were powerless. as phil, who has been our current assessor-recorder is being sworn in today, he is much more than the appraisal function that this office has. in fact, he has utilized this position effectively to introduce some other creative programs, such as coastal are, one of the first in the country to do this -- go solar, one of the first in the country to do this. they got a well-deserved award for recognizing that very thing. he knows how to use innovation. his spearheading efforts in the don't borrow trouble program,

where people who are facing foreclosure get caught up in that, that has been extremely innovative. his real estate watchdog, when people make transactions on property and do not wish to report it -- that watchdog program is something he started. in the first year, $1.34 million. that is some serious money. it is that kind of innovation that also caused him to lead other things that i feel are important. he is helping to start the china sf board. that is also something that i am working on. that is a job creator, bringing in the firms, and that is another example of innovation. all these accomplishments are

just a few of the many things that phil has been able to accomplish, besides being a good father. i will let you know this. even on his first day, when i told you that i would be making the budget deficit a big priority -- many of us have already talked about this this morning -- i am going to need a bill to collect every dollar that he can. [applause] we all know it in the city that every dollar he collects is going to be part of the services we support in the city. that is an indictable -- hit in valuable -- invaluable position. he will be helping all san franciscans make sure that our property taxes are filed efficiently and innovatively assessed in value.

thank you very much. [applause] >> thank you, mayor lee, for your kind words. before i introduce our necks speaker, i want to acknowledge some of our friends today. it is our long list, so i would ask that you hold your applause until the end. we have the treasurer here. board president david chiu. supervisor jane kim is here. supervisor eric mar. supervisor scott wiener. city college at san francisco border trusties natalie berg. executives of the labor council.

city attorney dennis her erherr. tom ammiano, george gascon. former supervisor bevan dufty is here with us. department of environment director emily nutter. interim police chief jeff godown. thank you for being here today. [applause] now on with the program. when phil told me he invited the speaker of the california state assembly to swear him in, i looked at him and said, are you kidding me? the governor is introducing his budget that we, sessions that week, there is no way he is driving down to san francisco for you on wednesday night. but it sure enough, here i am.

i am not sure that bill asked me to introduce him, more so as payback for being the naysayer. we are so happy to have you here. i get to call you john, because this was before he became speaker. i first met john in 2008. bill said to me, my college friend is in town running for a board office in l.a.. we found ourselves having breakfast one morning. i thought, we are going to spend the entire breakfast talking about his candidacy, who was going to win. this is too much for a saturday morning. but sure enough, at one point, he stopped talking about the campaign and just started playing with our daughter isabella, who was two at the time. at the pinnacle of their

relationship, she spilled and ice cold glass of water all over his pants. i am thinking in my head, he hates us. should i buy him a new pair of pants? what should i do? john just looked at me and said, it is no big deal. don't worry about it. whether he was uncomfortable or not, you would not have known it. he accepts the situation, moves on, and that is the kind of person he is. sari, we have some baby issues. i promise i will keep isabella away from you with any beverages tonight. now i will refer to you as speaker. john perez was elected to the california state assembly in 2008 representing parts of

downtown l.a. and eastern ally. prior to the election, he spent 10 years has had the leader of the labor federation. since his election, he has hit the ground running focusing on job creation, expanding health care, support workers' rights, and oversight and accountability in our government. in 2010, speaker progress was elected by his peers by the california state assembly. as someone who works for the legislature, it has been a thrill watching you rise to your leadership that i know our state needs right now. i asked phil to describe his college friend using three words. he said passionate, committed, just gets it done. that is more than three words. i do not know about you, but those are three solid words i am happy to hear describing one of

the most powerful leaders in our state. i am proud to introduce the speaker of the assembly john paris. >> thank you. this week the governor unveiled a difficult budget with $28 billion worth of solution we need to find and somehow you are surprised that i wanted to leave sacramento? i am honored to be here. it is an incredible privilege to celebrate tonight with all of you this wonderful transition as you enter your next phase of public office. it is an honor to be a part of this process with you.
