codeings. we are working with property owners but we really recommend very quick abatement. >> thank you. >> thank you, any other questions to dpw? okay, colleagues for item 26 i understand there is an amended report. madam clerk do we need to adopt that or simply acknowledge that? >> mr. president, we don't need a motion to adopt this report but you can without objection accept this report? >> okay, colleagues if also no objection i would like to accept the amended report and with that unless there is any additional discuss let's take a roll call vote on the resolution. >> supervisor cohen, aye, ferrel aye -- supervisor kim,

aye, lee, avalos, campos aye, chiu, there are 11 ayes. >> the resolution is adopted. >> we've already done roll call. now why don't we go to general public comment. >> at this time the public may comment generally on subject matters of jurisdiction on the board between the items on the adoption without reference to the committee calendar. please note that the public is not allowed to comment on those items that have been discussed. speakers using translation will be allowed twice the amount of time.

>> thank you. let's hear from our first public speaker. >> good afternoon. don't accept money from our library. last week, this board had an extensive reduction of gift funds by the san francisco district attorney. the california fair political practices commission has announced that it will investigate the failure of the san francisco city librarian to report gift funds of a great deal more money. the city librarian's economic disclosure disclosed no gifts and the forms 801 don't exist at all. they provide a discretionary fund and the city librarian

spent a 69,000 and spent on show rooms and trips and furnishings. the board of supervisors would never investigate this because it's a part of a much greater conversion of public resources into the hands of private corporate philanthropy. what is meant that private assets is a mother's milk of politics. this is what happens when public -- there is no accountability for the private money, how it is raised or where it goes and there is no accountability for the sunshine and ethics violation that allows them to operate with impunity. david chiu for having me arrested are

the lies cost more than the money. >> next speaker? director of san francisco. i would i would like this to remain on. public records request indicate from 2008-2013. city librarian received $181,000 from the friends of the san francisco public library. mr. chafee's previous speaker had an additional $30,000. this is particularly the items that are spent on travel, hotel accommodation etc. herrera has a total discretion to spend these funds including some for his personal benefit. he has failed to report any of these gifts as required by state and local ordinances, i have to

wonder whether any of these sums were reported to the internal revenue services and franchise tax board. these gifts were spent on the staff, i wonder if city employees were given information about the potential tax liability incurred by accepting these gifts. using his position as city librarian , to make false statements and has placed a dozens of employees to having violated both federal and state tax codes. on a different topic, icon congratulated one member on this board who has paid attention to the commendation. while they are

particularly honoree they pay attention but they don't pay attention to other people. i think it's really disconcerting being honored and the member of the board is looking the other way when it comes to money. >> next speaker. >> good afternoon supervisors. peter war field executive director of the library association. while louis herrera is being investigated and taking care of the san francisco public library and being taking care of by them, he's not taking care of the public interest. the library administration is proposed massive cuts to evening hours

even as they add overall some few days of service to branches and over all a total of 56 hours. but every single evening when the library branches are open until 9:00 is going to be cut back or eliminated and the latest that any branch or the main library will stay open under the newly proposed regime is 8:00 p.m.. it will be shortened and replaced and removed by closing at 8:00 instead of 9:00 p.m.. in fact all of the monday evenings where you may have gone sometime for library service will be shut down and closed at 6. the library has also been

spending this and misrepresenting this as only an increase or as far as they go as standardizing evening hours. but what standardized and evening hours means cutting them back. that's exactly the opposite of what the public has been telling them for years and that is we want more evenings and weekends. please question them about this and stop it when budget comes up, thank you. next speaker. >> president chiu, members of the board. my name is edgar ross. i'm a san francisco resident and homeowner at 2131 eleven worth street. the

utility poles cables and boxes outside my window are an appalling mess. the transformer outside my window exploded last year. mylar balloons have short circuited lines in my neighborhood twice this month. half the blocks in the city are the in the same situation. it's unfair and unreasonable for us to the excluded from utility under grounding. san francisco unofficially abandoned it's citywide policy of utility undergrounding seven years ago when it turns pg e loose and exhausted the project funds. the supervisors then appointed

a utility task force which submitted it's recommendations in 2007. i urge you to pass the cogent recommendation and adopt the program and fund it adequately and bid it competitively and finish the job. the entire city will benefit. thank you. >> thank you, next speaker. >> president chiu. i would like to put this on tv. if it was heads i would talk about john decamp but it was tails so i will preach. last week we talked about how the pilot asked jesus if he was the king and jesus said did you say that

of yourself and later on he said, well no, he said are you the kings of the jews and that's when jesus said did you say that of yourself and then he said, are you a king then? and jesus said, to this end was i born and this i came to the world to bear witnessness of the truth. luke 13, said they were present of the season who told of the gal lean who told their pilot was mirrored with their sacrifice. in jesus answering said unto them suppose these gal liens were siners. i tell you nay. you repent and you shall all like wise perish. i will tell you

nay, but accept you repent. think about what he just said there. he wasn't saying a tower was going to fall on him. he says judgment day is coming very soon. i'm telling you to turn to the bible and come in the last hours. we are in the last days. we really are. >> thank you, next speaker. >> good afternoon president barack president chiu and supervisors. you ran easy like a sunday morning. easy like ethiopia sunday

morning. [singing]

>> my name is richard becker. i just learned the morning about the ordinance that supervisor wiener was speaking of here.

>> excuse me sir. we have a rule on the board about public comment. you can make comment about the general topic but not specifically on something we voted and approved >> okay. years ago when the permit process was as a result if you get a permit for the city it's $450. so i'm concerned that that not be repeated. i'm also concerned that the giving to the department of public health officials, the right to issue citations which would be

administrative citations which i believe would fall under the legal idea of rebuttable presumption meaning you are innocent until proved guilty. not only the fine people but would also allow for them to be charged attorney fees and other fees meaning that i really -- incompetent organization would be allowed to led the serious fines for people for sound that they designated was inappropriate. i hope that gets changed. >> next speaker? >> good afternoon. my name is christina. i'm here on bauf --

behalf of the asian law caucus. we are here to represent the hate speech and political speeches and the ads referenced earlier featured quotes criticizing the policy of israel including former u.s. president jimmy carter. the responses by a & m connections throughout the arab community. the political speech with racist speech calling a minority group savages is problematic. in deed calling this -- this of course is an

untenable position. further ranz of a democratic change of ideas. this form must be safe guarded and to ensure this important and necessary public form be implemented. thank you. >> thank you, next speaker please. >> i'm from san francisco. we need more public toiments -- toilets in this city. did you ever wake up in the middle of the night and had to go real bad so you give up your sleeping bag provided against the cold damp night air and dragging it with you you stumble down the street looking for a public restroom. finally

through the park you see a beacon of light and clenched legs you reach your relief only to find it occupied by a fellow sleep deprived night camper. you know you are in for a good at least 20 minute wait. but nature can't wait so you have to make a decision. find a dark corner and insult to sensitivity in the coming days as they pass by or be a good citizens and take responsibility and just wet your pants. more public toilets, please. >> thanks, next speaker. >> good afternoon supervisors. i'm saying so it's on the

record officially. the super bowl goes to santa clara, san jose, who is responsible for losing the 49ers ? in my opinion gavn nusom and edwardly, two are responsible to come with a viable plan for the 49ers, when we start having those super bowl celebrations, i would like everyone like everyone else around the country know the headquarters for the san francisco 49ers is not in san francisco, it is in santa -- santa clara and a lot

of the big shots. the only reason why the giants are here is because they paid for their own ballpark. nobody is willing to tell the officials face-to-face. i just came back from oklahoma city last night saying that san francisco is a city of losers. >> next speaker? >> good afternoon supervisors. this is some historical information that i wanted to provide you that occurred here in san francisco. this is

historical material in time. president bush welcomes president of kenya. president bush, mr. president madam first lady, members of the kenya delegation. on behalf of the american people, laura and i are please today welcome you to the united states. this is the first visit by the leader of an african country directing during my administration. [ applause ] and the president since last year.

of kenya. i just wanted to ask you if any of you smoke newport cigarettes. there is a charter in the united nations and by the general assembly and millennium declaration. i will leave a copy for you if you are interested. >> thank you. next speaker? good afternoon, president chiu and supervisors. i know we had a wonderful time of celebration with asian pacific heritage month. i have some sad news to

deliver this afternoon. a very personal friend, a very fine city folks, business owner in memory of tony keng. where it all began and in the beginning. many of you are aware that advertising was established back in 1990. tony king was ahead of his time even before the u.s. census of 1990 that informed us about americanation demographics in collaboration with the founders opened the advertising agency partnering with companies to target the asian american consumers who would meet for hours and conduct business in hotel lob easy -- lobbies across the

city. corporate america was about to talk to these firms and think about their mainstream background. jay was out here in san francisco and it was the first client the help of -- we basically started to work with this client with tony. tony also opened a successful chain in the sandwich shops in the financial district. tony was the original founder of the asian business league of san francisco when he coined with the group of the business seminars and programs and honoring many asian american business leaders. he was born in asia. >> thank you very much. are there any other members of the

public who wish to speak in general public comment? okay. seeing none. public comment is closed. madam clerk please go to our adaptation counter. >> item 29 through 30 with a single roll call vote. >> colleagues, would anyone like to serve sever any of these items. >> items 29, 30, supervisor aye, cohen, supervisor, supervisor yee, avalos, supervisor breed, aye, campos aye, chiu. there are 11 ayes. >> these resolution are

>> so, good morning, everyone. i'll make some brief remarks. first of all, i want to introduce myself. i am chip berg, the president and ceo of levi straus and company. joining me here this morning is my right, the ceo of the 49ers, as well as mayor lee from san francisco and mayor mathews from santa clara.

as bob said, we'll make a couple of quick remarks, each one of us, and then we'll open the floor up for questions and then be available afterwards. first of all, welcome you all here to levi's plaza, the headquarters of levi straus and company. as you probably saw walking through the lobby this morning, we've got a lot going on here today. today is our annual community day. it's a day every year when our employees step away from their day job and volunteer in their local communities. today we have nearly 170 projects in 46 different countries around the world, and more than 3,000 employees giving back tens of thousands of hours in community service. and we felt it was a very appropriate day, given the importance of community, that we make a big community announcement today. jed was with me this morning as we participated -- we actually built a few skateboards for a

program called board rescue, and it was great for us to be able to partner together on that. but that's really not the reason why we called you all here today. the news you really want to hear about is the partnership of two great bay area iconic brands, the san francisco 49ers and levi's. levi straus is thrilled to announce that we have come to agreement on a 20-year $220 million naming rights partnership for the new stadium in santa clara which will be called levi stadium. the santa clara stadium authority will vote tomorrow night on the final package, but we're confident that this partnership is a perfect fit for santa clara, the 49ers, and levi straus and company. this partnership makes sense for a lot of reasons. santa clara and levi straus and company are both 160 years old this year. our founder, levi straus created the original blue jean 140 year
