didn't have enough notice and they are real legitimate concerns. if we at the board were to over turn the planning commission's conditional use permit, would at & t resort to those right-of-way on the street poles to achieve the coverage of the gap that you said exist? >> so, at & t does not even have an approved distributed antenna designed approved by the san francisco. this is a pretty clear case. i think we would pursue legal means to pursue this site. we've been waiting 2 years, our federal shot clock is 150 days. if we had noticed through oh omar,

we worked closely with the planning department, if he gets wind to opposition right before we had our community meeting we held a separate meeting for 3-4 hours to address these concerns, we didn't have that in this case. this is the first time. i think we had 7 or maybe 9 people at the planning commission. it's been almost three 3 years in january. our shop clock is 150 days. we met our legal obligation and we ask that you move forward to support the planning commission's decision. >> thank you. >> colleagues, any more questions? is there any additional public comment? seeing none, public comment . if there is any member from

the pub protected bike -- public wishing to speak. let's hear from our rebuttals. >> supervisors, thank you for listening to us. we could have potentially resolved this much easier had the problem been approved. i think there is a problem with trust. why do we, the community not trust at & t? how come, why can't they get our trust? not just us, not just our community, each of your communities as they apply, not just at & t but the other carriers they are going to the same same thing. he said she said type situation where

it doesn't of to be like this. the wts siting guidelines, i think the spirit was excellent back in 1996, but somehow that wholen at the present time has the focus has been lost. there is no accountability to us, the citizens. you are our leaders and we look to you to help us. district 1, with supervisor mar is our leader and each of you have your own constituents. this is going to be a problem. we need to find solutions, residential areas are not where antennas should be. they should be as indicated in the guidelines on public areas, places where people are not living. and it's interesting that the international firefighters

association had a resolution that prohibits antenna on their buildings. i wonder why? i think there is a problem. so we need to solve this and i really thank you for the opportunity to bring the sub. it is a bird in the saddle. i am for technology, but it has to be right. thank you. >>president david chiu: thank you, colleagues, any final questions for the parties involved today. >> yes, ma i i continue my pictures. i didn't finish. >> unfortunately man -- madam, public comment is closed. >> you will see the picture

clearly. >> we hear what you are saying. we need to give the member of the public the same amount of time. thank you very much. colleagues any final comments before we close this hearing? >> supervisor mar? >>supervisor eric mar: i want to thank many of the neighborhoods. >>president david chiu: colleagues unless there is any objection, this hearing is now closed. supervisor mar? >>supervisor eric mar: i want to thank everyone for attending. i urge my colleagues to listen to the sentiments of my neighbors. i will be moving to not authorize this. the lack of communication with at & t is a critical part of it. the independent study done by

the neighborhood should be looked at carefully as well. i appreciate the planning staff walking us through the issues, but in my opinion based on my knowledge of how close sensitive receptors like young from birth to five children are so close to the nine antennas plus the many different restaurants and other activities especially sushi bistro which is one of my daughter's favorite restaurants. it's my neighborhood that we are talking about and my neighbors are very fearful of approval of a project like this. so i ask you to stand with me and my neighbors in rejecting this conditional use authorization decision. so i will move that we disapprove the conditional use authorization. that's item 23 and that we table items 22 and 24. >>president david chiu: supervisor mar has made a motion to

disapprove the cu, second by supervisor kim. any additional from colleagues. >> mr. president if it's the desire to disapprove the appeal, it would be important to approve item 24. >> let me ask the city attorney if we need to know more. >> deputy city attorney. a number of issues raised that supervisor mar is lack of notice which is a planning requirement. not a codified requirement for the bases of a conditional use. >> so it's not in necessary or compatible based on the evidence in the record and the testimony from the

community. >> thank you, and my office will work with the clerk to prepare findings for the next meeting consistent with your comments. >> okay. >> so then mr. president, we would not approve item 24. >> item 24 would direct the clerk's office to prepare the findings based on the testimony and evidence provided today. so the board would approve 23 and 24 and then the clerk's office would prepare findings to present at the next board meeting. >> and we table item 22? >> that's correct. >> okay. again, we'll make the motion as has been proposed by supervisor mar and second by supervisor kim ascribed by our deputy city attorney. let's call the roll. >> city clerk: supervisor

farrell, no, kim aye, tang, no, wiener, no, yee, aye, supervisor avalos? no. supervisor breed. no. supervisor campos, aye, supervisor chiu, aye. supervisor cohen. there are 5 ayes and 6 nos. >> the motion fails. >>president david chiu: i have been adviced by our clerk that a motion to approve the cu would be a motion here.

do you want to add anything else to that. >> deputy city attorney john gibner, no, the motion to approve item 22, tabling 23 and 24. >>president david chiu: okay, is there anyone who wants to make that motion? supervisor farrell is making that motion. is there an is second to that motion? seconded by supervisor breed. with that let's take a roll call vote. >> city clerk: supervisor farrell, aye, kim, no, mar no, supervisor tang, aye, wiener aye, supervisor yee, no, supervisor avalos, aye, supervisor breed, aye, supervisor campos, no, chiu no, supervisor cohen,

aye. there are 6 ayes and 5 nos. >> the issue of conditional use is approved. and with that, colleagues, madam clerk could you read the in memoriams. city clerk: today the memory in the following individual for the late mr. sandy segal. >> with that, madam clerk, is there anymore business in front of the board of supervisors? >> that concludes the business for today. >>president david chiu: ladies and gentlemen, we are adjourned. [ meeting is adjourned ] >> >>

>> good evening, everyone. >> good evening. >> my name is emily murase and i am the executive director for the department on the status of women here to welcome you to our event marking the birthday of domestic violence awareness month. we have so many successes to report to you tonight. first of all before i introduce our speakers i just want to recognize that domestic violence survivors among us they deserve our continued support and applause. >> next i want to recognize the staff of our partner agencies and all of the folks here who

work fighting domestic violence every day, many of them are holding our signs and let's show them our appreciation. without further adieu, please help me welcome our may or, lee, who in every year of his administration has invested greater amounts of public funding to combat violence against women and has been a true leader in this area and please welcome mayor lee. [ applause ] >> thank you for you and the commission to do for the city, and just want to say that anita wanted to be here but she wants to give you her love and appreciation for all of the work that everybody does. this is our 20th, anniversary and celebration of awareness and it is serious business in our city, we have an

impressable 44 months without domestic violence homicide in our city. impressive. and we had expressed how wonderful that feeling was just a year ago of course, this past year we have had three homicides domestic homicides in our city. and this means, for us, not a case of failure, a case of more work that we have it do. and we are ready for this work. in fact we are so ready that emily says that we have increase that budget every year and we increased it by 1.6 million dollars and for our domestic violence programs. >> and it is worth t it is worth every penny of it and i want to thank every member of the board of supervisors who stand up here and work together as part of a city family and the police chief and the district attorney, and our commission on our commission on the status of women and all of our friends in the community,

and the community agencies are so important for this to happen and more and more, we are recognizing that immigrant groups and the people who don't speak english as their first language need more direct help in this arena and the education, and the services, and the advocacy and we want to make sure that when we do have extra funds, to put to, and to the programs that we also reach all of the immigrant families and we break every language barrier to make sure that the services and the programs are reaching but the most important message is violence is not tolerated in this city. all forms of violence. it also means violence is not permitted in any of our sports and their cities as well. and yes, and we will continue to ring solid and true on that, and we continue to want to be

the national model that everybody can follow but we will also take care of local business, i very much appreciate a lot of faces that are standing up beside me here. faces that i have seen for many years working on this very, very hard program very hard topic, gut wrenching topics and every story that you read can just wrench your emotions because they are wrong and they should never happen. but i also have hope that i see a lot of young faces, once that hopefully, we will be a part of their education and they will adopt what we do here today, and they will look forward and they will see, not only 44 months, but they will see 44 years of no domestic violence, how about that for our kids? [ applause ] >> i also want to give a shout out to everybody who worked on this justice and encourage panel that was started some 12

years ago. when we asked them to assemble to go through all of the work that we have not done and what we should do, and the private sector and the public sector with the city agencies and with the non-profits and with advocacy and they came up with 121 recommendations for us. and i am proud to say that today that we have our final evaluation report for those 12 years work that we have been doing to tackle these 121 recommendations and this final report, is a part of the reflection of the work that we have been doing and i just want to say a big, big thank you to everyone who has been working on that panel and everybody, and all of us who are carrying out those recommendations and all across in our education and institutions and in our public safety departments and divisions, and in our communities, and every aspect must be covered. and that has been a valuable

report and an extremely important exercise for our city to do, and in the form and to continue doing even more. and so i joined our board of supervisors and i joined the da and our police department and our fire department and all of the community agencies and let's continue on the trek and let's end the domestic violence, and everybody is wearing the wonderful colors of purple to signify this moment, but let's keep this month, every month, of the year, and no matter of sports we are celebrating, and no matter where we are, and let's speak to each other and say, end domestic violence for men and violence and girls. and thank you, so much mr. mayor and i want to take a moment to recognize members of the elected family who are here

with us today. and supervisor, and supervisor jane kim and we saw that he said here, and with this as well. and so really it takes a village to tackle this problem and you will see many crackers around and it represents some of the 121 recommendations that were completed, in our final and you will hear more about that and next please help me welcome police chief who has shown his commitment to fighting the violence against women and, we are joined tonight by the first female president of the police commission, loftus, and many others, help me welcome police chief greg suhr. >> thank you and on every marked police vehicle in the san francisco police department there is one bumper sticker and

on the back of every single car as you see the police vehicles traveling around and it simply says that there is no excuse for domestic violence. and because, there is not. and much has been made in the national media about how come this happened and that happened and how about just no, there is no excuse, period, for the domestic violence. >> and the san francisco police department is a critical piece of that as we respond to any calls for domestic violence in san francisco and as the mayor pointed out, we did enjoy a period of some 40 plus months where there were no dow mist i can violence homicides in san francisco. and now, it is having suffered three, even though we are in a record low, homicide, here, almost ten percent and better than ten percent of the homicides that have occurred in san francisco, have been domestic violence related. and we continue to provide the assessment for the training for the police officers and

increased the limited accomplish training because we don't want somebody's inbility to communicate in english to be a deter and we want to insure that all survivors that san francisco is a sanctuary city and that there is status in the united states will never be called into question and they need to report, because again, there is no excuse for domestic violence upon anybody. our special victims unit continues to thrive without 16 additional investigators to the special victim's unit just in the calendar year, 2014. and the things for most as we see it work here best in san francisco and as we continued to have the domestic violence advocates located in the special victim's unit and, the celebrates their 10th anniversary this year, and

being, emerged in our 14 and the ten yard audit, and in the backlog and we contracted with the vendors to clear it back ten years by the mid 2015. we initiated an asap protocol, in january of this year and so there will never be a sexual assault kit backlog again. >> so again, i know that there are other speakers and i don't want to take me more time and i just goted gonzaga the to keep saying it and we kelt that it was important enough to put a sticker on the cars when it is the only one there it speaks volume to have it committed we as a city and a police department and how much we enjoy the partnerships and we are committed to nobody being able to make a excuse for

domestic violence, thank you. >> please help me recognize the members of the police commission and the police department. [ applause ] >> next is our district attorney george cascon who has championed effort to intervene and prevent acts of violence against women and he is exciting news to share, please welcome the district attorney. you know, it is exciting to see it here today. and but i like to for a moment, all of us coming together and they see and that no more violence. come on. >> no more violence, you know, still, one out of every four women in this country, report being the victim of domestic violence some time in their life. and so while we often get together, and especially during

this month, to celebrate the accomplishments and to talk about all of the great things that we are doing, and there is still a lot of work, and this year, and 3 homicides and do not indicate that there is a lot of work that still needs to be done. and especially those, who are working in the domestic violence, and i want to thank the supervisors and the mayor for the monitorry support that we received last year, and to beat all of the resources. and for it to support, and insure, and in order to do the work.

and we have the resources and the conviction rate and that are significantly increased. and we have it in front of and getting the victim services to the big victims and to the suppliers very quickly. and most people think that in the district attorney office is a prosecutor, and when it comes to the domestic violence, and it is a great deal of, and and it to make sure that we get the restrainingorders and to make sure that we deal with the custody issues and and for the survivors, and to be able to move on with their life. and you know, recently, you know, we were just talking to some of the other people that we work with and some of the

survivors and we have the women who said, you know, i was so, so afraid, of going to court and she walked in, and she met one of the victims services counselors, and she said that you know, i felt that all of a sudden like i was at home and that makes a difference, not only in being able to begin, the healing process, and but, also being able to hold the aggressors accountable and you know, we tell the people that actually if we do our work well, and we intervene earlier, we have an opportunity and that all of us can prevent the future acts of violence and assuming that the family wants to stay together, we can actually help the families do it together. and that is not the cycle of violence goes on for years, and it usually does by the way, if you do not intervene early on, it will increase the frequency and it will increase in the level of migration, and sometimes by the time that the

police and we get there, there is very little that can be done. and unfortunately that is not only bad for the family, it is bad for our community and it is bad. and you know, i have saw this before and you know, i have used it and i am stealing this work from everyone else and i heard once that a few, engaged in domestic violence in your home and you are almost guaranteeing that your sons, will grow up, to be abusive themselves and end up in jail. and we need to work together, to win this cycle of violence and we need to get to the day, for having, this meeting and this come ration of success to suppose to still talk about one out of every four women being the victim of the violence in their life and i am really honored for the company that we have hear today and we have a lot of work to do and i look forward to being able to

continue to work with you. thank you. >> before i introduce my commissioners i want to report that thanks to the leadership of eric mar and human resources director cal ahan and her staff, every city employee will receive this brochure on recognizing the signs of dow domestic violence and the resources that are available later this month, and next, please help me to welcome on the commission on the status of women, the senior member of our commission and long time activist on women human rights issues and the chair of the oversight panel, she is going to talk about our final report. welcome commissioner shorter. >> and good evening, everyone, and it is, and it is with the great honor that i stand here today, to not only represent

our distinguished commission on the commission on the status of women, but certainly the justice encouraged oversight panel, and let me tell you, what tremendous work has been accomplished over the last, several years, we know that san francisco we are having not only local impact and it has been described by our mayor, and by our police chief, and by our district attorney, and when you hear in the public discourse, the term that we started with in san francisco, a few years ago, that the domestic violence is not a private family matter. in reference of what is happening within the national

football league and the other arena, we know that we are having the impact and so, we want to applaud all of those persons that stand here with us today, and in unison to have even greater impact this is nationally the report and if it was up to me, i would read the whole report. but i won't do that, but i am going to trust that each of you will get your hands on this report, when it is in your fully bound form and review it. and really appreciate the work that has gone into not the report, itself, but the work that has gone into making the critical and necessary changes that we have the critical response to the domestic violence in san francisco and let me just give you a few of those highlights etch of which
