any documents will be in the file and segregated through classification. >> thank you so much. >> sepp this time and we can have an -- at this time we can have the current proposal on the table. fax all in favor? -- >> all in favor? >> you want to do a roll call? >> we will do a roll-call. [calling votes] that is seven ayes.

the motion passes. >> moving on to mr. alonzo cost proposals. >> i propose that we settle on the finalization states region -- finalization date. i would say april 5. if that does not fare well, we will amend it. >> is there a second? >> i will second it. >> public comment? >> chris bowman, a member of the task force in 1995.

if you go back to the 2002 line drawing, they were actually tweaking the map on the final date. it had to do with district 11. funny how things remain the same. the problem is you have not done any line drawing. you will be doing line drawing on the fourth. if it is on the fifth, that gives the public 24 hours, assuming the map you draft is on line at a time before the reading, and there is only a 24- hour turnaround, so i strongly recommend against approving th

at. if they are not available for review, you violate i believe. >> i would like to reiterate. i urge you to vote no in this motion. you are the most important people in the city of this point, and i realize you are dead tired of this and wanted to be over, but i urge you to take your charge very seriously. this is a big deal, and you are getting information down to the last minute, so even though it is a tough job, i urge you to not thimake a deadline that is l

too soon, because you cannot tell what is going to happen to president chiu-- happen to port. there is some moving around that can be done without moving other districts to the west. i have a map, but i did not bring them tonight. i will get them in before midnight. thank you so much. >> on the subject of a deadline, i agree it is hard to

have a definite date at this point, but if you leave it until the last minute, you run the risk of letting the comments you hear last let you forget the ones you heard earlier. whether the fifth is the right date, i would encourage you to look for some closure by a fairly early date, so the public starts to feel there is some closure. goothank you. >> commissioners, the greatest task force oveever. i come from a coalition with a

lengthy name. i come from a neighborhood with severe problem, and what i am offering is a way out of fashion -- of that, and i do not have the answers, but i have an algorithm. i think of is little early. >> i want to urge the task force to be clear about expectations it is creating, and you could decide to have the 50 your deadline and then decide to make changes to it, but thought would be a problem, so something you

might want to consider is having some deadline for a final draft and made a really clear it is subject to final changes of a later meeting. >> i will take comments. >> i appreciate what the speakers said about the fifth being too close in their opinion, and i am beginning to share the opinion, to the fourth, and i am beginning to share that idea of needing a little more time to have access to its common and i would be comfortable moving the state to the ninth instead of the fifth region moving the date to the fifth if he is open. the other analogy is a

construction analogy. if we think of substantial completion and are open to making small adjustments after the ninth should we take that approach, but i am very uncomfortable with the thought of making open ended changes all the way to the 14th. i do not think it is going to set us up well to make good decisions and to report in an effective way about them, so we do take this task very seriously. i am hoping people do not interpret this conversation as a signal to the contrary, but it is because we want to take the process and our deliberations so seriously and our reporting of our work so seriously that we should create some interim dates by which we should be substantially done with our deliberation, make that

explicit, make unreasonable, and communicates, but we shall believe that interval for the next couple minutes. >> i want to offer both states, the fifth being the preliminary final days of the public is aware of that, and if the map is published so on the ninth we do our final final. cracks in reflecting for the last few minutes, as an intent to get to substantial compliance, i am with it. i think they're voting against the motion common and i am not sure i want to lock myself into a particular date, because things could change. if there is some persuasive

thing, i am open to it. i am not sure if there is going to be something huge and persuasive, but there may be a need to make a final tweaks somewhere. if we could really advance the report, i am very comfortable with that, but i am not sure the setting an earlier date right now helps. >> i think i am on the position that the fifth is possibly -- i think we should be ready to draft an ad nauseam to the point where we feel comfortable about where we are, and i think we

will not decide on the ninth we are moving to the 10th. i think the fed is probably the right statedate, and i think we should leave the last day. >> i will amend my motion to allow a final drive that addresses the larger issues of leave open to polishing and tweaking after that. after the fifth. >> if we can to roll call. >> are we accepting that

amendment without objection? >> without objection, they will be excepted without the amendment. >> on the motion as amended -- [calling votes] there are six ayes and one no. the motion pass those -- the motion passes. i think maybe we need to restate the motion for the public debt on april 9 the task force will provide a preliminary draft -- i

am sorry. on the fifth. a preliminary final map which will allow for changes to be made at a later date, and it is april 5. >> correct. >> of his time, i am going to conclude the work plan agenda item. we will move on to task force's budget. i do not have any new updates, but overall we are so well in in thin as a task force overall expenses. >> i have a point of clarification, but on item 4 regarding mali's suggestions for inclusion, i did not know

whether or not we have arrived on fact. maybe i just miss that. we can taket it offline if that is easier. >> if we can take it off line, that would be great. >> i do not care when, but sometime in the next 15 and a half days, could we have some kind of budget reconciliation in writing that shows where we are in various expenses? i would like to feel comfortable but we did our task within the budget as amended. >> thank you. >> public comment for task force and budget? task force member reports?

>> nothing. >> nothing. >> i had to add we are receiving a few media inquiries, but i wanted to be able to alert you about that, and i anticipate we will continue to get more requests as we get closer to our final states. >> are responding -- are we responding to those requests? >> that those requests go directly to the clerk as well as to our share, and share macdonell will decide whether he wants to delete it goes to individual taskforce members.

-- if he wants to delegate to individual task force members. >> we will move on to public comment for any items that were discussed this evening. >> regarding the blocks south, i recently learned our new supervisor reside in that area, specifically near baker and fulton, so i suggest you find out where she actually live cents so you can see which blocks might be affected.

>> i did not finish what i wanted to say about out reach. i said good things, but it now predominantly turned out bad. there was insufficient software, insufficient training, insufficient everything, and although several people were at that meeting, not a single mouth came out of that, and that is a function of the budget. the budget was insufficient. the first thing that goes is advocacy, and things get really bad. let me close by putting on my predict perhaps -- predicter hat. i am going to predict a couple things. portrero is going to turn of the way it did 10 years ago. it is going to be put back north

of market. there are a couple of differences. we are not in the brown administration, and it is interesting to see the appointments not be giving in lockstep. a representative from chinatown was claudine, and she was completely unresponsive to the requirement, and my question to you now is where is she now. >> as a matter of record, i want to stay faste that as far as i , if you umbrella organizations were contacted, and no input was taken for the community unity map, and so i do not know which

community they were united, but it was the neighborhoods. just because you have drawn blinds does not mean they cannot be changed. i would encourage you to take a look. redrawsf.org and is really good. it is a lot of fun. it does not take long, but you can actually see where you aren' and the racial makeup of y group in the area, which is what i did on the map you have, so draft the lines yourself at

home. it has been easy. thanks. >> do we took the words out of my mouth. i do not know how many of you have actually gone to san francisco and drafted your own map, but if you are proficient with it, and it took me about a month before i got proficient with it, but i could probably move to 40,000 people in rotation in about 30-, and it can be done. there was a lot of testimony from people supporting the community saying, you cannot change it. it is going to be too difficult to change it. nonsense.

the fact is you only need five rotations going in a counterclockwise direction, and 5% will beat weeks you can do in the next two weeks. protrero hill into district 6. the theater district, the islands into district 3, 3700 people interdistrict two 3300 people into district 5, and you have accomplished in 95% of what you need to accomplish, and it does not take a rocket scientist to do it, and it does not take more than one hour to do that. >> my name is benjamin

gonzales, and i am a filipino american born in san francisco. i have been to a couple of meetings. i thank you for being able to stick to the process. i heard in the last meeting only have showed of -- only half showed up, so i am glad you guys as a committee are able to hear what the public wanted. in february i sat in with a group of filipinos, and we asked who we are and what we wanted. i came to the meetings and saw these different groups defending their areas, and the lines you create are going to build those communities the filipino community have not had an actual

larry get it was designed as theirs. i heard a long time ago there was a question about japan town becoming little manilla. i am asking and requesting that you recognize there is a filipino community in san francisco, and i hope they stay together in one consolidated area. thank you. >> thank you. at this time and we will take -- >> i did spend many hours 10 years ago of these task force meetings, and i do recall changes were still made on that day, but i do see the value of having something before the last day in place. obviously a little tweaking if

need be. i do feel we are very late in the game to do something as big as taking potrero hill out of district land. i feel as people felt strongly about it it should have been discussed more seriously early on, so i urge you refrain from doing that. i do appreciate the fact you have been sensitive about traditional communities as in restoring japantown in district 5, along with other important cultural components of district 5. i hope you can keep it or bring back the west side community into district 5, where it really belongs. thank you. >> i will take future agenda items. i heard earlier this evening and we wanted to keep pretty similar

to the agenda items we had this evening. are there any admissions -- additions? >> i would like to request that i would like to get some numbers, demographic information for the latino population in district 9 based on how it looks now compared to moving the boundary north to the freeway. >> if there are no other adaptations, we will adjourn, and our next scheduled meeting is for wednesday. public comments for future agenda items? we will adjourn, and our next meeting is wednesday, april 4, 6:00 in city hall in room 406.

>> sanrio famous for the designs for hello kitty. i thought i would try to make it as cute as possible. that way people might want to read the stories. then people might be open to learn about the deities and the culture. ♪

they reached out to make about five or six years ago because of the book published. they appreciated that my work was clearly driven from my research and investigation. after i contributed my artwork, the museum was really beside themselves. they really took to it. the museum reached out to me to see if i would be interested in my own space inside the museum. i tell them that would be a dream come true. it is the classical, beautiful indian mythology through the lens of modern design and illustration and storytelling. they're all of these great sketch as i did for the maharajah exhibition. i get a lot of feedback on my artwork and books. they complement. they say how original the work

is. i am the first person to say that this is so derived from all of this great artwork and storytelling of the past. the research i put into all of my books and work is a product of how we do things that a-- at pixar. sometimes you will see him depicted monkey-like or as superman. i wanted to honor his monkey coloring. i decided to paint him white with a darker face. it is nice to breathe new life into it in a way that is reverent and honors the past but also lets them breathe and have fun. it is almost a european notion to bring these symbols and icons from southeast asia.

they decorate their deities. it was a god they interacted with every day in a human way. the most important thing has been to create work that is appealing to me. i want to see vishnu to pick did in a modern way. it dawned on me by reinterpreting the deities in a way that is modern and reverent to the history, i am building a bridge for young and old audiences to make friends with the culture and these icons to learn their stories. ♪
