our city attorney's office which has been working diligently on this piece of legislation and a number of other pieces of legislation we've put forward i know we've taken up a lot of time of our city attorney's office and their work is especially appreciate. the final issue is something that is happening in my district. you've probably read about in the paper the planned parenthood clinic located in my district in the mission. i want to provide some context for what's happening. in 193 affidavit gun was shot and killed on his way to work on the pensacola medical women's clinic it occurred in the middle of an anti-abortion profit that

was aimed at the staff at the clinic. that same year dr. golden gate war serving as the medical dork in that clinic was shot in both arms by anti choice protesters. dr. actuallyer would survivor that only to be killed by another anti activity. there were 4 thousand plus incidents of violence in the united states and canada in the last 20 years. i want to provide that context because what's happening in my district where anti extremity outlets are targeting women as they go into the planned parenthood clinic and the staff has to be put both the larger

context that has happened in other part the country. recently the u.s. supreme court held that a 35 foot boundary was uninstitutional. today because of that ruling there's a buffer room ordinance we pass here in san francisco and i thorough. because the status of that buffer zone we passed is unknown i'm introducing a request that we as a board of supervisors meet in closed session so we can obtain advise from our city attorney concerning our buffer zone and that we consider in closed session the various options we have as a board in protecting the rights of those women. the buffer room zone ordinance

allows for a fixed 25 foot buffer zone at the entrance of the clinics and in exits and driveways of any facility that provides facilities that are not owned are operated by hospitals. we believe this ordinance is necessary to prevent protesters from creating stationary barricades and gaunt let's between a patient and facility. it's my opinion that people that enter the clinics should be free of harassment and including vieftsdz very recently, i can tell you what we're seeing in front of that clinic is not free speech it is harassment and intimation i've seen it

firsthand it goes beyond whoo is first amendment talks about they are standing in in front of a doorway and trying to keep woman from going in they try to shame the individual and try to dissuade them by intimately them and file number block the clinic and when someone passes by and disagrees with what they're doing they try to go after the person and has the individual. image i i believe what is happening is not only wrong but illegal. until the board of supervisors makes a policy statement as to how we're going to proceed in terms of protecting those women the san francisco police department will not enforce our

buffer zone are i believe that this buffer zone needs to be enforced as quickly as possible but because the police department is waiting for the direction from the board of supervisors i think it's important for us to meet as as soon as possible on this issue i hope we meet in september when we return from our break ambassador in the meantime, i have asked our city attorney and police department to they can do everything within their power to make sure that other laws currently in place for the purpose of protecting women who are assessing the chaplain our other purposes we do everything we can to protect the access to the clinic. women's rights are being violated here 90 in san francisco. if we can't protect access to

reproductive health in san francisco where else can access reproductive health be protected. thank you to our police department and the city attorney's office we've met with them and they're making this important issue a priority we need to act quickly i think we have very good legal agreements including factual differences what's happening here and what was ruled on by the supreme court. i believe that san francisco needs to continue to follow it's tradition of protecting the rights of people even when their legal questions involved we pushed the envelope on same sex may remember and proven fore right and we need to continue to do so here and push the

effective so the right of women to choice what to do with their bodies and access health care is protected transportation authority >> thank you supervisor campos. >> supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much. okay. a couple of items. for introduction today. first colleagues i'm introducing an ordinance that elements the amount of says that a building is allowed to convert once it's a designated historic landmark. over the last two months i've worked with tenants in the 2 henry adams it was impartiality for a landmark designation their proposal to convert their 5 story building to office space and displace tenants is a significant concern. based on a survey there's

approximately 14 other buildings in the pdr one d and g areas that could be eligible for landmark designation those buildings are allowed to convert one hundred percent of their space to office. eir respect of whatever whether or not they displace the tenants this limits the number of stories they can limit by establishing now controls i believe this legislation strikes the right balances between higher revenue balances such office space to support the maintenance of those historic buildings without displacing tenants or can only obligating a whole pdr building. you've heard me time and time

again stress the value of pdr and the value it brings to our city it provides blue-collar jobs and diversity to our economy 0. not addressing this issue will lead us down a path of undercutting all issue to support a growing local manufacturing industry next to give voice to what's happening in san francisco a number of gun violence across thecy in the south eastern part of the city this year alone they've stolen the lives of 20 individuals prematuring and scaring countless of other physically as

well as mentally. the current epidemic of violence in america threats our physical health and the integrity of basic social institutions like our families and communities we live in as well as our city and health care system. gun violence is a national epidemic we need to curb this violation. we deserve to live in community free from fear and the no one should have to live in a society with lives are lost often two early this is a statewide public health issue that must be addressed today, i held a press conference on the stairs of city hall and now i'm introducing a

resolution to establish citywide gun violence task force that will comprise of city departments and more importantly community leaders that are on the front line in the past we've dealt with important issues issues we've dealt with in the chamber prostitution and sing room occupancy but no other issue that needs a more coordinated support than the resolution for the epidemic of the gun violence p the task force will be 17 members comprises of community members side police department and as well as other law enforcement agencies and a critical factor

conceal time the supervisors never asked about that. the libraries massive reduction of space for library materials went forward 55 removal which a of material you have a wait a whole day and the supervisors never asked about the reduction of access to materials the neutral added rules that will massively restrict access for vague rules are that are so bad the aclu opted it no skews asked they going to shorten all the hours down to 8:30 and cut
