[inaudible] develop creative long term funding strategies for the maintenance and improvements. we have a number of open spaces that are not owned or maintained by the city. and most of our city and private grants opportunities are focused not on improvements so a group of these neighborhoods have been working

with [inaudible] successful community benefits district to fund parks and open space maintenance. the legislation that i'm introducing and residential properties to voluntary assess themselves to fund maintenance and improvements to specify parkings in open spaces. this /hrepbl /shraeugs is modelled after our city's own [inaudible] many of the pieces of [inaudible] that we like which are including the ability for a local non profit board to manage and use these funds and a detailed requirement such as a management plan assessment engineers report, a local election and approval by the board of supervisors before a new assess /-pl district can be

created. we all know that the parks and open space are the living rooms for our communities. they provide critical areas for family, /kheurpbl, seniors to enjoy or great city. specifically in the southeastern neighborhoods we are experiencing influx in [inaudible] to accommodate the new growth often lags behind. in our work on this legislation with the recreation and parkings /tk-plt we've also heard that there are a number of neighborhood groups across the city that may want to explore this possibility to -- we want to explore this as a possibility to further their neighborhood park maintenance program. my hope is that this legislation will [inaudible] property owners all over the city to afford the opportunity to /eupbl vest the construction

of and long term maintenance amend improvements of parks and public space. the second i'm introducing is [inaudible] that makes findings of con convenience and necessity when we per met new liquor licenses. the board and the /hraoeupblsing unit of the police department regularly impose conditions only /kworb /hraoeupblss that benefit the department such as prohibition of the sale of single served sized beverages. pretty

simple. it makes these conditions that are commonly liquor license. additionally it strengthens the requirements to loitering sign. [inaudible] impact of liquor stores on or neighborhoods and we've done what we do to in terms of zoning to limit the location of liquor stores, but by codifying these restrictions into the application process i believe were doing our best to ensure that licensees are being good neighbors. and i would like to request a brief

francisco leads to healthier commuters we can make in moving people in our city is in bicycle infrastructure. never theless the city is spending just less than one-half of one percent of cap -- 20 percent of all trips by bicycle by 2020. today we're think a little over 7 percent so we have a long way to go. i want to identify [inaudible] out of the bike

plan. it's time the city walks the walk when it comes to funding bike improvements. less than half of one percent is not acceptable and with the mta's budget [inaudible] coming up now is when we can make these plans a reality. i look forward to working with you in bringing these plans to a reality. also i wanted to alert you all that saturday the 18th is our west side communality clean team with the department of public works mayor lee, supervisor tang and my office cosponsoring a major effort to clean up and help green our neighborhoods. it begins saturday at 8:00 am sharp at washington high school on 32nd avenue and geary. the clean team is a city wide
