including championship a new central subway for the chinese town city college and the renovation of the kwoirt i'm happy we'll have a very long advocate at our state assembly i know i certainly look forward to working with you in that new capacity i know that his staff is here today with you in the chamber justin and amy and as well as others your past katherine and all of them were wonderful staff to work with so i wish you all the best in our next endeavors so with that, said president chiu i wanted to begin ta to thank you for all

you've done and want to take the opportunity to acknowledge other supervisors supervisor wiener. >> supervisor tang and for your words i have to say this a sad day because i have enjoyed working with a number of colleagues but really am going to miss having david chiu as a colleague in this building i've known david for 20 years since he was a year ahead of me in law school and we ended up think the board of supervisors sometimes agreeing and sometimes fighting by also doing what is the best for

people of san francisco i have continually been impressed david with our ability to navigate go not just one of the most critiqued district in san francisco politically by a city that is complicated an institution in the board of supervisors that is complicated to say to be able to say not only to succeed on this body in terms of legislation and the work in our district, everything you've be able to accomplish but to do it i believe constantly with professionalism and grace i can agree to disagree without being disagreeable i've been at

any wit's end and you've kept our cool it's served you well, you've kept our cool but incredibly tenacious and pass n passionate and moved for some of the most complicated legislation to think that this board of supervisors passed legislation authorizes by david chiu to provide a hypotheses to legalization for in-law units that a few years ago that would have been absolutely impossible politically and the line items list can go on prevention after legislation that seemed like it wasn't doable but david chiu and his amazing staff move forward and got it done you end up with scares and not everyone is happy

with you but having that kind of legislator is good it's been a pleasure to work with david chiu as supervisor tang has learned quickly it's not an easy role but david chiu has navigated diffused i'm going to miss you it's not going to be the same place without you but the same skills and tan tenacity that has severed you well is to all our benefit as you represent us in the state assembly and do us all proud. >> supervisor wiener supervisor farrell thank you, david this is a surreal day for many of us who come in when you are that the

president of the board we've known nothing but you and i have been on many sides of the issues and campaigns but there are a few things coming to the board meeting today reminded me of the last four years with you first of all, as we shared a border your impressive pace of the calendar but i would go to one or two but the 5th of yours it boggled my mind but it's been a hallmark that's served you well and just know how impressive that is and people around town the schedule you keep up and appear everything politically

and per diem it's admirable i'll remember you've had a snack for the theatre phone boxes up open our podium during legislative times but you've done it very, very well and one time i'll remember in a community meeting during the board you were late and it come out you got concocted on your heels biking on pomp street with a massive wound on our chin but a imply who limited into a community meeting i'll never forget that moment and ultimately though i'll remember about you with your work on the board it's flut

for people on other side you've done one of the best jobs trying to find common ground at the board and been effective and again you know a lot of 6 to 5 votes and thiazine but i think it's a hallmark of a person that's a good legislator you've done our job well and your staff you know, i will say this i think coming in 4 years ago you set a benchmark and amy and the whole team but we'll never forth that the late nights being in the hallways you've done an amazing job and people noted that but david chiu congratulations best of luck up in sacramento and still in good

hands so congratulations. >> thank you supervisor farrell supervisor mar i'm not going to call you president only defied when you step into the shoes of tom had for years that will now be assemblyman chiu whew what were elected president it was a proud moment in the chinese community you severed us co-sponsor rallying us at times with dignity and real effort as supervisor farrell mentioned to bring us together at times it seemed like we couldn't be brought together i won't pious that money will mistake me for you (laughter). >> and call me david and i don't think there's anyone else that might be mistaken for

me but the shoes will be big to fill you'll do that with dignity and effectiveness we were talking about how many years but scott's known you longer than and it's been about 18 years i think your work in sifrz is impressive in sacramento you'll continue the sacramento workers bill of rights and the predictability scheduling there so many things to champion in sacramento i'm looking forward to seeing you shine there as and was years ago the director of the immigrant rights coalition you were an amazing straefblg member of the board i've learned a lot from you since our served on this board as our president i know your

parents are proud of you i'm looking forward to a different relationship thank you for serving chinatown and north beach and district 3 it's been an honor to serve with you david. >> thank you supervisor mar supervisor kim. >> thank you. i think enough has been said about your work and office over the last of years i think i have the special privilege i had a personal experience with defied he was one of the first people i met in san francisco in 1999, i started with a lot of friends that david is familiar with a group called thursday we had monthly panel discussion around the chinese americans how

articulate you were on issues facing our community and everyone rushed to they knew you were someone that contributed a lot and soon after that devastating and i found ourselves out of housing your restrooms were leaving we were interviewing sublets at a variety of apartment and an hour later i having had a roommate we lived together 3 years when i was a youth organizer that's a ride that doesn't end here starting as friends and roommate that we worked open a lot of projects together i will say this about david because we cannot share too much

we're under oath about living together but you know david you have also been incredibly activity i'm impressed by your stamina you were raising back and forth between 5 and that events at one point we were talking about the 9 different boards you were sitting on and when a which one did you have to let go to serve on the china i chinese board but you served on a board it didn't change you continued to stay incredibly activity you like to be involved in everything which i know your constituents appreciate about you and clearly led to you're

continuing our policy and constituent work at state level but what i will say in our years ever work i remember when you started to take to the ballot families that were immigrants that had children in our school system but couldn't elect their school board leaders so even if you maybe in our system k through 12 because you're not a citizen you can't determine policies for your kids that was actually a really, really hard campaign i remember the 6 months recruiting us and the hurdles of criticisms were thrown our way including i remember you allowed assami bin

laden to vote on the school boards that's one of the reasons the campaign lost it was unfortunate but i think that it was so appreciated i took on that site i think so many people of the you couldn't limit by it did continue an important dialog i hope we continue to have in light of president obama exclusive order regarding 4 million undocumented members of our country that contribute to this country and have a pathway or rather will not have to live in fear of deportation i look forward to our relationship post as colleagues on the board of supervisors and really looking at to implementing the vision

zero policies in sacramento with our flight of tenant protection here 90 in san francisco and congratulate you for your years of service. >> thank you, supervisor kim supervisor yee. >> thank you, supervisor. >> want to make this brief congratulations as you move on its been two years since i've known you in your capacity are i want to and there's a lot of former president of a smaller body but wince you've been in that capacity you release how difficult it is to keep everybody together in keeping us focused of whatever our goals are i want have to say you've done a great job as much as we would
