special thanks to supervisor yee. he helped me to see the work. but i want to look at the individuals who have been here during the history of watching this department to going from the earlier stages of school readiness which we know encompasses so many skills. and i the to honor those people (calling names). those all have been with the program thirty years. i'm new and i'm hourpd. just besides having an amazing

9:03 pm
the first time that childcare was an issue. and many of the programs that started 70 years ago are not around any more. eventually we got state funding to support it further. i'm honored to see the transition of that program and for the longest, long time time to have the education program involved with the district. if i look at the school districts website the only school district is that actually says prek to 12 not k to 12. it was only able to happen
9:04 pm
because of the staff that put in the effort. so i'm really glad and i wish you were co-author of this. i am proud we have this in our city to represent our city for the young kids. thank you very much for the work that you guys do. (clapping) >> so we're going to take a quick photograph.
9:05 pm
>> i want to give supervisor kim to say a few words too. >> thank you. i think supervisor yee already said a lot of things about our early education department but, you know, as just xooend the communication we had over the few months i think one of the things we look at is that kindergartner enter into our school system we see the gap and their such on incredibly
9:06 pm
important piece and the staff that have championed it have made a real difference. i hope that as we have more discussions around prop h that we really have a robust discussions on how to fund prek. we're dealing with this head on before our young school children enter the program. and i want to thing our staff none of you look old enough to have been around for thirty years. this says a lot about our program so thank you four all your work. >> thank you colleagues.
9:07 pm

9:09 pm
49er win. supervisor kim i am one of our reasons and i would like to give you a little credit you make it in our room by your people here. this here shows you two brothers one of them must win and they are two brothers. i can't blame any one of you but the - i blame the mayor he is lazy. i wish he would hear what i'm saying. but 49 eras i said here just to show with the (inaudible) i wish
9:10 pm
we can win and i hope. thank you, thank you all of you. thank you supervisor >> thank you next speaker. >> god bless you supervisors and glad bless the city and county of san francisco. today for this black history month i am very reluctant to talk about this subject. i was a teacher at marshall academic high school and which at that time was a low income high crime county. and marshall high school was set up for black and latin use to
9:11 pm
succeed in high school and slowly that population has been squeezed out of that school. that school was a preschool. i think there needs to be a look at marshall high school and we need to ask ourselves what's going on over there how many our black people and latin are not being served thank you, very much. . next speaker >> good afternoon supervisor stop corporate rape of our library. private shut up of our community
9:12 pm
and perhaps because of the public library has began to make our information public. a discretionary fund and these funds are budgeted at $65,000 yes and no and the library expand this amount. this is the extend detail and he spends it on the undefined business expense. this may be one explanations why there is an over flow of spending funds ridiculously.
9:13 pm
the bigger request is why the forensics are not allowed - are allowed to continue with no oversight from the board of supervisors. the private fundraisers always assume they can harass the critics to exploring the truth. it is certainly why i was arrested at a board of supervisors meeting in order to protect the friends. having me arrested does not solve societies problem and cover the lies >> next speaker. >> members of the board of supervisors on the screen i have a quote from andre canning geoif
9:14 pm
i could get it up on the screen. we kind of had - as i get older i pay less attention to what men say i watch what they do. i pay attention to the board of supervisors what you actually do. this board of supervisors attitude about public participation in government i have no problem of labeling it hostile. look at the public comment. at january it took four hours for the general public to get a chance to speak and here today comes after 35 minutes.
9:15 pm
to members of public have to make a minimum commitment of half a day. this shows what you care about. especially, when public talks you get up and talk to each other and many of you leaves the room. we wouldn't not all of those nice people while dissenting comments are made. they then there's restrictions on free speech. and at no time in the handling of any members do the public get to speak to this board of supervisors before you take final action.
9:16 pm
>> thank you next speaker. >> good afternoon supervisors i'm peter executive director of library users association. last month library you areers association won a case at the sunshine task force. the majority of members there void that the arts commission had unlawfully withheld information it was to keep us from getting our rights serviced. but that win of 4 to 3 was not enough to overcome what the
9:17 pm
board of supervisors did to make sure it won't be enough for an action to be taken. you essentially replaced all members and we won 4 to 3 and additionally you passed the sunshine ordinance with new members to repeal it's rule that the majority could take the decision on instead of requiring 6 votes. so only 7 people on the board were there and that was a couple
9:18 pm
of votes against us. your sabotage of open government sadly is bearing fruit. >> next speaker and thanks supervisors i'm an attorney, an mba that has been long associated with this city but i've got some positive comments to make. this poem reflects the poem encourage - i co-founded the poetry fountains and we have a public service to get you poems
9:19 pm
from the movement we'll have on public event to encourage education in february. this is the confession and it is like honest i didn't and this is for you the board of supervisors san francisco. our legislative lady of mieshlz flies open where crime and punishment are perpetual and infinity and the fear of death becomes a judgment beyond reason, a guilty class of desire as arbitrary as spawning yet in
9:20 pm
memory of our ancestors all in the same humble family our human breath rises to palms and there is no love that bypassess this love >> thank you next speaker. >> come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away, just save the airport and we'll beat the birds come fly with me. come harvey away. good luck with our items scott

general hospital hours to each day. to me something good telling me the hospital you love it. you make it seem like it's terrible and it's not a very good place. telling me something hospital general hospital good. telling me that you love it yeah. tell me >> thank you next speaker. >> good afternoon board of supervisors. the 49ers did not detective beat in my opinion they were beat by bad luck and it was caused by a
9:23 pm
an dead man. joseph is tired of waiting for justice and i can the have you do god in new orleans decided that was long enough and what convinced me it was the famous blackout base that was supernatural. so if anyone is going to be blamed for the 49ers loss it was the curse. so if mayor lee continues to ignore the dead man's curse it may take harvey to come back and lead us to the city hauls.
9:24 pm
this guy may not be a -- he was a gay city employee who died at the general hospital. i want to dare the board of supervisors to issue a statement about how much child porn is inside the computer in the city. i have to say i hope shawn doesn't beat up on that microphone any more because he only has one more year >> thank you next speaker. >> i have just returned from
9:25 pm
commissioner meeting on investment and infrastructure where they're trying to fast track track to build thousands and thousands of units in san francisco. so you board of supervisors during the holidays created an ordinance an ordinance of just 5 people. so at any time if 3 of them decide to attend on any important issue they need just two votes to pass it. and we're talking about the last frontier and we're talking about 10 billions of projects. i must commend a few people that attended the ethic committee on
9:26 pm
the laws of land our ethic commission has all kinds of excused and part of that investigation part of that hiding the things under the carpet comes from this board of supervisors. some of you last night in chinatown we see wheeling and dealing with people who are very corrupt and i folks knowing very good that a wellness center is going to be built on third you folks should be ashamed of yours as adults with intensity i want

9:29 pm
work all of us have differences of opinion but sometimes those differences there are a lot of commonality. and one thing i'll say about supervisor ackerman >> during her 10 years our district was improved by this supervisor. and, in fact, after undercover widespread corruption she was able to recoup a lot of money. her motto was children first and i think on behalf of all of us who worked with her and all the children from the san francisco school district we want to thank
