the noise, and all of the violence. this is the apartment building off the map. i am neutral on this permit. the permit that we have is we go to the visit the noise problem. i know that denise is always very vocal about this, and always makes their concerns known. something is just not clicking here. we are detailing what 250 feet maine. -- mean. this is an issue, and this is an issue that needs to be figured out. and also, this is where the residents are at.

these buildings close up at night. they have problems keeping this under control. >> thank you. >> use of the last complaint was from july 4. >> july 4, we had the july 4 weekend. and maybe this was the second or the third. this was sunday evening. >> do you know how many complaints that you are getting, in general? >> particularly, we had a couple of calls -- to the non-emergency number. there were from two different people. but this goes on quite often. i think they have the feeling that they should say that nothing will happen, anyway. i think that this is something

to be considered. >> i know that you cannot rule on this, tonight, but directing the staff is what i am after. you have the conditions that may be the most helpful, and i ask for them to come up with some possibilities that will include, what do we have? this is still not enough. and so, maybe he can throw some ideas during this game. >> this may be there in set of conditions because this is going to be something that will fall back to the staff. the issue with the conditions that are not. this would be helpful. >> i am comfortable with that, but i would caution the people running this that if this blows

up, you will not see much cooperation out of me in the future. you have to set your own future with how you handle this. and you have to follow the guidelines of the staff. >> this will be my first test as a new commissioner and i am not willing to go to the fire, especially if you had all these other problems. and you said how at the end of the knightnights, the dj goes u. i know that you can set of volumes so that they cannot push this higher, so you do have control over what they will do. you can put a block as to how high this can go. and you can take responsibility for that noise. you cannot say that they are responsible for this.

>> ok. and is there any public comment? this concludes the meeting. >> you have to admit, yo uget paid a -- you get paid anyway. >> and thank you for coming in.

>> the next time you take a muni bus or train, there could be new technology that could make it easier to get to your

destination. many are taking a position of next bus technology now in use around the city. updated at regular intervals from the comfort of their home or workplace. next bus uses satellite technology and advanced computer modeling to track buses and trains, estimating are bought stocks with a high degree of accuracy. the bus and train our arrival information can be accessed from your computer and even on your cellular phone or personal digital assistant. knowing their arrival time of the bus allows riders the choice of waiting for it or perhaps doing some shopping locally or getting a cup of coffee. it also gives a greater sense that they can count on you to get to their destination on time. the next bus our arrival information is also transmitted to bus shelters around the city equipped with the next bus sign. riders are updated strictly

about arrival times. to make this information available, muni has tested push to talk buttons at trial shelters. rider when pushes the button, the text is displayed -- when a rider pushes the button. >> the success of these tests led to the expansion of the program to all stations on the light rail and is part of the new shelter contract, push to talk will be installed. check out the new technology making your right easier every day

when a resident of san francisco is looking for health care, you look in your neighborhood first. what is closest to you? if you come to a neighborhood health center or a clinic, you then have access it a system of care in the community health network. we are a system of care that was probably based on the family practice model, but it was really clear that there are special populations with special needs. the cole street clinic is a youth clinic in the heart of the haight ashbury and they target youth. tom woodell takes care of many of the central city residents and they have great expertise in providing services for many of the homeless. potrero hill and southeast health centers are health centers in those particular

communities that are family health centers, so they provide health care to patients across the age span. . >> many of our clients are working poor. they pay their taxes. they may run into a rough patch now and then and what we're able to provide is a bridge towards getting them back on their feet. the center averages about 14,000 visits a year in the health clinic alone. one of the areas that we specialize in is family medicine, but the additional focus of that is is to provide care to women and children. women find out they're pregnant, we talk to them about the importance of getting good prenatal care which takes many visits. we initially will see them for their full physical to determine their base line health, and then enroll them in prenatal care which occurs over the next 9 months. group prenatal care is designed

to give women the opportunity to bond during their pregnancy with other women that have similar due dates. our doctors here are family doctors. they are able to help these women deliver their babies at the hospital, at general hospital. we also have the wic program, which is a program that provides food vouchers for our families after they have their children, up to age 5 they are able to receive food vouchers to get milk and cereal for their children. >> it's for the city, not only our clinic, but the city. we have all our children in san francisco should have insurance now because if they are low income enough, they get medical. if they actually have a little more assets, a little more income, they can get happy family. we do have family who come outside of our neighborhood to come on our clinic. one thing i learn from our

clients, no matter how old they are, no matter how little english they know, they know how to get to chinatown, meaning they know how to get to our clinic. 85 percent of our staff is bilingual because we are serving many monolingual chinese patients. they can be child care providers so our clients can go out and work. >> we found more and more women of child bearing age come down with cancer and they have kids and the kids were having a horrible time and parents were having a horrible time. how do parents tell their kids they may not be here? what we do is provide a place and the material and support and then they figure out their own truth, what it means to them. i see the behavior change in front of my eyes.

maybe they have never been able to go out of boundaries, their lives have been so rigid to sort of expressing that makes tremendous changes. because we did what we did, it is now sort of a nationwide model. >> i think you would be surprised if you come to these clinics. many of them i think would be your neighbors if you knew that. often times we just don't discuss that. we treat husband and wife and they bring in their kids or we treat the grandparents and then the next generation. there are people who come in who need treatment for their heart disease or for their diabetes or their high blood pressure or their cholesterol or their hepatitis b. we actually provide group medical visits and group education classes and meeting people who have similar chronic illnesses as you do really helps you understand that you are not alone in dealing with

this. and it validates the experiences that you have and so you learn from each other. >> i think it's very important to try to be in tune with the needs of the community and a lot of our patients have -- a lot of our patients are actually immigrants who have a lot of competing priorities, family issues, child care issues, maybe not being able to find work or finding work and not being insured and health care sometimes isn't the top priority for them. we need to understand that so that we can help them take care of themselves physically and emotionally to deal with all these other things. they also have to be working through with people living longer and living with more chronic conditions i think we're going to see more patients coming through. >> starting next year, every day 10,000 people will hit the age of 60 until 2020.

. >> the needs of the patients that we see at kerr senior center often have to do with the consequences of long standing substance abuse and mental illness, linked to their chronic diseases. heart failure, hypertension, diabetes, cancer, stroke, those kinds of chronic illnesses. when you get them in your 30's and 40's and you have them into your aging process, you are not going to have a comfortable old age. you are also seeing in terms of epidemics, an increase in alzheimer's and it is going to increase as the population increases. there are quite a few seniors who have mental health problems but they are also, the majority of seniors, who are hard-working, who had minimum wage jobs their whole lives,

who paid social security. think about living on $889 a month in the city of san francisco needing to buy medication, one meal a day, hopefully, and health care. if we could provide health care early on we might prevent (inaudible) and people would be less likely to end up in the emergency room with a drastic outcome. we could actually provide prevention and health care to people who had no other way of getting health care, those without insurance, it might be more cost effecti>> hello. 9 judge terri l. jackson. the court is now recruiting prospective civil grand jurors. our goal is to develop a pool of candidates that is inclusive of all segments of our city's population.

>> the jury conducts investigations and publishes findings and recommendations. these reports them become a key part of the civic dialog on how we can make san francisco a better place to live and work. >> i want to encourage anyone that is on the fence, is considering participating as a grand jury member, to do so. >> so if you are interested in our local city government and would like to work with 18 other enthusiastic citizens committed to improving its operations, i encourage you to consider applying for service on the civil grand jury. >> for more information, visit the civil grand jury website at sfgov.org/courts or call

>> we do not have a quorum right now. we will start with non-action items and hopefully we will have a quorum when we have action items we have to address. please call the roll. >> commissioner diazjoseph. >> commissioner joseph: here.

>> commissioner roja: >> here. >> members may address the commission for up to three minutes at such a time the item is called. does anyone want to address the commission on an item not on tonight's jeagenda? >> i want to say that folks in the north beach corridor are anxiously anticipating the passage of the limited live entertainment area. there are businesses entering in, very excited about the opportunity with this legislation to pass.

it is an accessory use so it will help some of the businesses adjust their models. it will be a warm and inviting area. we cannot wait. thank you. >> thank you. we will go to the police department and introduce rich corea who we omitted from the agenda but we know he is here. please come forward. >> good evening, commissioners. i want to come tonight, i have been here before and introduce myself to you. a little bit about me.

i want to say enough to put you at ease about my background and experience. 31 years in the police department. i have been in every area of the police department. i was a permanent officer a long time ago at a station. many things i hear resonate for my early experiences. i got to work closely with some of the main players in the entertainment community at golden gate park and that was quite an education. also the power of building relationships. i am -- have a have a private

interest investment. i am sensitive to the importance of an economy for the city and a vibrant economy in the nighttime community and also sensitive to the balances around public safety. i may city resident, a fourth generation, fifth generation. i live in the city. while some folks might look at the community at a distance, i lived it. i spent a lot of time at restaurants, less so at music venues. when i have done so far is i had one meeting with the cmac board of directors to get acquainted. we have another for august t2.

in mhy -- my personal philosophy is i value what i participate or also have to question. this is often found at the root of our problems. i am the -- a liaison to this commission. if you have questions, i'm glad to answer them. >> i want to say welcome. we're pleased to have you on board. it is nice to know you have an nba. -- mba, that is cool. >> i understand business. business and public safety, they work together. it is not that complicated. i am looking forward to the summit coming up.

it is successful when you bring people in to dialogue about geographic issues and industry- specific issues. also looking forward to working with folks on the new legislation that was passed today. thank you. >> thank you. we're looking forward to working with you. did you have anything? we have the rival of two more commissioners. we have a quorum. i forgot to mention that there is the addition of glendon hyde. he will be a tremendous asset to the organization.

next item, reviewing the minutes of july 12. we have a quorum of commissioners -- we will have to continue that item. >> i move to continue. >> second. >> commissioner hyde, mr. joseph, mr. perez. >> yes. >> item #3. for a report from the executive director. >> good evening. as was mentioned earlier, there was activity around this long to live performance legislation.

-- limited live performance legislation. in a nutshell, after all the commission took a look at it and send recommendations in support of the land use committee. again it was passed with recommendation yesterday. july 25. the board did discuss the item today. we did continue it for a week, they felt they had to have more discussion with community. the plan is to see that item by the board on its first reading.

i have given new this legislation before. if anyone is interested, i have the package. the other legislation i wanted to make the commission aware of is something that was introduced, it is in the waiting period, a piece of legislation regarding a bowling alley in the mission. i think we attached this behind my memo there. a copy of the ordinance from june 21. i believe this will be heard after the summer break. in short, the genesis of the legislation is a new bowling alley
