8:32 pm
entities that may not necessarily especially for homeowners that maybe renting out a room because their kids have gone off to college you know opening up a whole new realm of potential problems for them. because now they'll be deemed businesses. so bringing that to your attention i'll continue to have conversations with supervisor chiu's office but when those protections come about i think it is a roll for the commission and the offices to look at those and the issues and side effects thanks or things of that sort of. so this is all that i wanted to pass on in my director's report unless there's questions >> is there a draft. >> yes. i will send that to
8:33 pm

8:34 pm
willing to negotiate or give information to the tenants of flower market as to their future when we builds the campus on site of a one hundred-year-old flower market that employees at least 75 thousand? bay area that are effected those are all working class jobs this is something that is enormous and needs to be brought to the attention of our commission in order to have our administration look at this situation. >> what do we want them to do. >> well, i was going to bring this up under new business. as we look at the design center and how that was going to go in there and displace a lot of the small design businesses it's the same thing at the flower market
8:35 pm
you're taking away a first of all, you have all the flower shop? bay area that flower mart is a lot of small business >> is this supervisor kim's district. >> yeah. we need to enlist the support of the supervisors. >> i was going to bring feel up those are small businesses being displaced we were going to take this up this is hearsay been there over one hundred years but what is the developer going to do those are small business owners who are wholesalers are wish basically going to be put out of business. >> they don't intend to give spaces. >> their though the making any promises. >> why not create a new business item.
8:36 pm
>> when we get to the new business i'll bring it up. seeing none, public comment is closed next item >> item 13 is general public comment. >> do we have any members of the public who want to make comments on future meetings seeing none, public comment is closed. item 14 new business >> i got some. >> okay. so on the heels of our conversation today i'd like to us to research and perhaps find a supervisor sponsor to repel the legislation that requires the registration for the po s licenses and to craft some kind of an enforcement model not a blanket preempt active model that instead provides deterrence
8:37 pm
to that businesses are encouraged to uphold, you know, to act within the law there is a law there are various enforcement models it's not mandated the way we've implemented it and the way we've implemented it is waiting this gentleman's time money and effort and waiting the resources of the city and county of san francisco and, in fact, accident benefit is minimum compared to the administrative active and financial burden so if we can find, you know, a supervisor to help us this is another clean up the code sort of thing >> yeah. i have two of them a cat scanner you have it on you are phone what you have on your phone takes away what those people do. >> and the basis of the scare. >> your admitting you're not

8:40 pm
flower mart in the united states. >> and the largest too. >> without deciding what to do here the task is to photo what are the intentions and what are the alternatives, you know, if the flower mart is to remain or to be moved but what are the possibilities because there's no discussion of that. >> no. >> certainly we. >> it is going to be leveled. >> it's not the sale has not closed we have until september 11th to try to get the developers to sit down and talk to the vendors and you know the growers let's remembered that in san mateo the amount of revenue brought ♪ one year by the growers of flowers is $180 million.
