other festivals shell was a 25 veteran of the restaurant bar and nightclub industries i think we're in shock over the loss of a leader and friend. this past weekend i spoke to shells parent and shared with them how we all appreciated and loved their son today in our audience we shall joined by shells brother and sister and on behalf of the neighborhoods and friends we want to thank you for sharing our family webb member with our city. potentially one of his lasting legacies is the lower polk district i saw an e-mail at the end of last week before he passed saying the finally a balance was mailed i know all of

us we'll work hard to insure the lower polk succeed this was a project near and dear to my heart to shells project that he worked on for many years. again on behalf of the board i want to say to his family and friends our city is so much the better for having had shell with us before rest in peace >> madam clerk. >> thank you, mr. president. supervisor farrell supervisor kim. >> thank you. today, i'm introducing the beginning of some clean up language for the plan, which the board of supervisors passed in march of 2013 i want to thank supervisor wiener and supervisor campos introducing legislation that makes clear our protective

i will continue to support this they contribute to the northern in the same legislation looking to clean up other districts >> thank you supervisor kim. supervisor mar. i want to ask if i could join supervisor and president chiu in the memorial for mr. thomas and kathleen was here from the former small business commission and shell had a great impact on the clement street area several years ago wherever i lacking walk there i think of shell i want to be addressed to the memoriam. i have several items on june 19th to just a minute a better understanding of the awe

depictions e definitions of the recycling centers on that meeting 80 on june 19th we heard from long term recircles and they raised concerns on the evictions of recycling centers in our grocery store parking lots and even though hearing hearing was spurred by the upcoming recycling centers at church and martha street and the abrupt announcement of the north beach recycling center since the closer of the 45ish9 from golden gate park 5 other recycling places where the northern half of san francisco at the safest way and the outer richmond it was a shock to me i'd been in

close krablth contact with safest way and was very insured it was not going to close and it was clear by the testimony of the department of the environment state and nation that we will not be able to reach our vision zero sgoelz goals if in question we close oury cycling centers losing a critical income stream for people's survival needs p.i. and i heard from community we need to work together on a resolution that calls for safe way to immediately sees the eviction of the redemption centers on market street that's scheduled to close on june 30th and for the department of the investment for a rededuction of are centers and

there being a concentrated in district 6 and 10. and also the resolution would urge spshths in the city to have redemption centers in their parking lot in as many areas. also following up with the vision zero we looked at paris mayor ma dam and the new mayor of paris to reduce speedometers in this city i'm introducing a resolution that will allow us to look at how to continue to make progress on safer streets and enclosure reducing speedometers. cities around the global not

only paris are lowering speedometers in order to reduce accident with this i'm requesting you study the impacts following this practice will bring to san francisco. recent studies have off and on that slower speeds help save lives. cars traveling 20 mile-per-hour 40 percent of people survive here in the united states new york has evaluated speedometers so new york in its vision zero is loouktd this policy change and paris began with a project where speedometers were capped at the 20 mile-per-hour and in scheduling it saves the

$120 million as a result of fewer accident in the united kingdom there's less accident and slowing moving cars reduced the green house gases and it is a positive change. my request for the project analysis one what can we learn from national and international that has changed their speedometers and how many lives can be saved by reducing speeds by the 5 or 10 miles per hour and what's the environmental savings and other questions. the successful implementation of vision zero set a standard for san francisco to have no fatalities on our street to achieve this we must make sure that the streets are safer and a

speedometer reduction is better. we're going to have a comedy event laugh for a good cause at the neck of the woods on clement street and 6th avenue. this year's hosting venue is also featuring a number of performances like comedian sam and lydia and trefer hill all the proceeds go to the ymca to the campaign it's a 21 and older event go to the ymca website the rest i'll submit >> supervisor avalos.

supervisor campos. >> thank you madam clerk i have a quick item which is a resolution that is being co-sponsored by supervisor avalos and supervisor wiener in the spirit of san francisco pride month we'll celebrate and with the upcoming lgbt pride paired as well as the ongoing movement to achieve equality for the lgbt community. we want to now turn our attention to what's happening in other parts of the world specifically today, i'm introducing a resolution that calls upon the newly elected government of the el sal for the rights and protections for our lgbt brothers in sisters in that country although el salvador

people in that country experience vushltd and discretions because of their gender expression for example, incidents of violence begin the lgbt community they go uninvestigated by the state officials and unrecorded by victims themselves because of the fears if they report the incident they will be reilly their sexual gender and that will be worse so today here in san francisco we're home to a large el sal community we have the civil rights and san francisco has been leading the way in calling for human rights protections in other parts of

the world given the important role of the el salvador it is important for us to be on record calling upon the new low elected government to protect the lgbt community. this resolution refoifrmdz our commitment to stand for the rights and district of all people including the lgbt community at home and abroad i want to thank all the community partners who helped especially (calling names) of the central american human resources and susan from - and also want to thank paul for my

officer who is interning from the kennedy school doing the summer program thank you paul and i urge my colleagues to join me in sending a clear message to the village sisters and brothers in el salvador >> mr. vice president seeing no other names on the roster that includes new business. >> why not go to the 2:30 special accomodation and for the presentation i'm going to turn it over to madam clerk. >> thank you, mr. president. and members of the board. for the next few minutes i have the privilege to begin the sendoff of a beloved employee who has given the majority of her life to public service in san francisco may i have our
