9:30 pm
just like any class of elected officials is not perfect, we work with a lot of great elected officials and politicians. that's not to say that all politicians are great. same thing with the police officers. we have a lot of amazing police officers. i get to work with them. i really appreciate the leadership that i get to work with at sf pd and the tenderloin and south of market. i have grown in my respect and admiration for individuals to capt. john s and cmdr. redman and mcgarity likely care about our communities. and when to break down racial bias in our criminal justice system. and within the police department. that being said, there are thousands of police officers just like any class of individuals unfortunately racism sexism classism all that pervades to our society. no police department i don't think is unfortunately not protected from that. that's just the society we live in. i think that the resolution is measured in addressing not. that being said, you can pull out
9:31 pm
individual words and say, that we are furthering divine in a relationship that is incredibly important. so, i want to respect all of the authors in this. i'm glad to be keeping all the pieces on the data points because it is important to include. i don't know nypd and ferguson. as an it's hard to say we're better police department than them. i don't live in those cities. they can have great leadership and great officers but there was this one officer that clearly made the wrong decision. when they shot this innocent individual. that could happen here in san francisco as well. so, i want to be able to balance both. i think everyone in this room is saying that that there's a balance. so, i think the question is how can we bring
9:32 pm
all the sentiments together. finally, a lot of people cannot to speak in public comment and i know that community activists and organizers camping every neighborhood, but i want to say i see many of you in the neighborhood and in the community through your work with power, [inaudible] within our school district and i just want to knowledge your service and your leadership in this work and you may not be at every meeting but i certainly see you and many of them. so, i do want to support the resolution in its original form. that being said, could we don't have the votes to do that i think that maybe there's a way to acknowledge alex and many others killed were shot by the police. and it knowledge the pain and hurt that exists in our community and our knowledge that there can be a better process without judging the incident or fault or blaming
9:33 pm
these officers from what might have occurred. at the end of the day i also want to say i don't police our streets. so i don't understand the fear that they go through when they try to make our neighborhoods safer. i see no police officers do aerobic things for neighborhood and i think anyone or anything in this resolution should take away from the daily heroism that sf pd engages in. i'm just thinking [inaudible] we can do more per week and can need to be better we can continue to be more equitable and to wipe out the bias that exists in all this is him as a pdm also our governments. so we can come to a resolution on this today. i will be supporting the original resolution but that can happen that we can come to some type of agreement on the amendments. >> thank you supervisor camp supervisor: is next like you to clarify again the minute you're
9:34 pm
proposing because i think that we have received a document that stated the [inaudible] >> so for so there's a couple points i want to point out. when i spoke about not being a part of the original conversation you presented supervisor avalos presented a copy of the language drafted already last tuesday in the chamber. that's my son on. i'm talking about when you were the week prior to that was a couple weeks prior to when you were talking this will legislate. we worked on amendments together this week but in the initial conversation the initial thinking of this resolution i was not a part of. that's the point i was try to make earlier. supervisor kim, i think you raise an interesting point we talked about a lot of people being critical of san francisco like where the voices have been missing. certainly for my
9:35 pm
community is comes from a place of distrust not only with the police but also in the media. in unfit disproportionate overreporting of crime and violence that is shed in very negative and harsh and credible critical light on people that automatically re-victimizes a victim or paints another suspect. so people have been very careful in their discussion about the overall experience right here in san francisco. i agree with you supervisor campos. you are correct. we are all in the same spirit of like mind here. we recognize no person or agency were entity such as this body is perfect. we all have -- we all come to the people with their own set of experiences and positive and negative that filter into how we decide what
9:36 pm
will support and what we will not support. my concerns about specifically calling out alex -- from what i heard from other community members concerns about not shedding light on the other lives that have been lost. this is the most recent tragedy. so i can understand that. so i'm willing to work with supervisor kim on the language on that. but supervisor that are busy last about my amendments are. so, the amendments are pretty -- pretty substantial. but substantial but pretty self-explanatory i think. it's on page 3, it starts from line 6 through line 24. excuse me.
9:37 pm
page 1, though whereas clause that starts on line 14: whereas [inaudible] authorized by malcolm x's question the validity of this particular statistic. . back to page 3162 lines 24, the beginning on 96 whereas [reading]. the following [inaudible] every
9:38 pm
case someone has killed -- is that a typo? officer involved shooting however number of [inaudible] created controversy and tension in the police. they source of contention as and whereas in the indie conviction mapping product i don't think it within to this particular conversation. it under the palm online 17: [inaudible] the duchess redundant. activists and ferguson missouri plus protesters to connect with account. michael brown vocal [inaudible] when he was shot at
9:39 pm
least 10 times whereas alex -- was known by making [inaudible] i am happy to -- one thing we did not do was write a resolution in support of alex -- in the family and the desire to get more information or possible compromise. the following mac whereas online five, page 4 where communities [inaudible] >> thank you. i just want to clarify that it is indeed more than just page 3 and four they are seeking the amendment and there was a second for motion for that amendment. let's go to
9:40 pm
supervisor march 1 and the supervisor, and has additional comments >> not this time >> supervisor mars >> i deftly want to move to our votes and want to appreciate supervisor autos for the efforts were the past few weeks. to poor resolution together that all 11 of us can get behind. notice i have learned a lot since the ferguson actions several weeks ago, joining supervisor avalos in the [inaudible] protests and being part of asians for black lives as a solitary and i like. i feel that resolutions like this, that are symbolic are important but our actions that we do in personal lives our political lives and building organizations and those movements is even more important. want to really
9:41 pm
appreciate supervisor's come in and read for sharing so much of themselves and giving input into this. i was a big part of this process from the beginning and i know that is a process that we all have to go forward in the future. it's an awkward decision because i'm hearing from growing movements and learn every day by being active in them we are to follow the lead of young people with her was on saturday with the millions much more with other actions or follow read of african-americans but i'm still going to be supportive of the original motion supervisor autos has brought in a really appreciate the comments and the insights and the wisdom that have spoken from the community. ideal following the lead of african-americans is really really important to me but i do feel that supervisor comments
9:42 pm
suggestions have logic behind them, my political sense is it's watering down and it's taking away the real heart of the alex -- movement and how san francisco is connected. so, we are making connections with other types of violence and other issues. i feel like the avalos resolution is really focused on institutionalized racism within the justice system and the police system and it's about a full systems change and cultural change. there are other issues out there also but i think that's the focus. so all be supportive of the supervisors avalos's original motion with appreciation for the amendments but i'll still be supportive. i think supervisors kim's suggestion to compromise by still mentioning alex -- is a good one and i be supportive of that if the original motion doesn't go forward in supervisor:'s moments are successful. to me the most important things are the result
9:43 pm
as others have said and putting this on record in support of the ferguson action. the ferguson action movement statements and the structural changes that are proposed in them to me are the most important things. i know that the heart that went into the drafting of this from germany and pollock two supervisor although wilson's office, and the community efforts to get the language the strong as possible is something him and said supportive >> supervisor autos >> thing. i like to start moving on voting for amendments and probably will have some process questions. i have an amendment as a whole. i believe that supervisor: amendments are religious amendment of the hole that i have here today. so, i believe that this amendment as a whole is actually more complete document than the work
9:44 pm
in progress that submitted last week. so i would propose that we accept this amendment as a whole and we have a vote on the [inaudible] that are being proposed by supervisor:. i am willing to go forward if we cannot approve the amendments, if we do not approve the minutes that supervisor: is accepting, that we move forward that we don't pass this ordinance but we have on the books the ordinance that i submitted today that i think is a much broader than the one that i submitted last week it was just a work in progress. that's my proposal. is that we accept the amendment as a whole. and then we have a vote on the amendment that are being offered by supervisor: and then we vote on the underlined ordinance. i do believe we need to pass this ordinance we would need, you both mdm. clerk >> this item is on second
9:45 pm
appearance. it would require a goes to weave the reference to committee and its expose on the item itself. >> so at this time i think that supervisor autos stated we can take the amendments that been offered in the order they have been received. so, mdm. clerk let's call well on the mimicked the whole offered by supervisor autos >> the messrs. further discussion >> point of information supervisor autos has made a motion to amend. [inaudible] motion to motion to extend the motion which might be unanimous and then we would proceed on whether to adopt that amendment. >> there to amendments as a whole ending before sereno so there's one set by supervisor autos and one by supervisor:. then we will proceed to the underlying item divorce. item 52. >> this is a six vote threshold.
9:46 pm
>> all be supporting just amending it so we can consider that amended. >> that is correct the motions were taken right now have to do with just the moment as all permits submitted by the two supervisors. any other further questions, seeing none mdm. clerk >> supervisor autos the moment bearing a new title supervisor winner aye supervisor autos aye supervisor breed aye supervisor campos aye supervisor: aye supervisor federal aye supervisor kim aye supervisor mark aye supervisor chang aye there are nine aye >> that amendment has been adopted. now, we have the second amendment does offer by supervisor:. so this amendment might be amendment of the
9:47 pm
holder supervisor: submitted actually is overlaid on top of the minutes that have not been adopted just out by the board. so mdm. clerk if you could take a local boat on the mimicked offered by supervisor: >> supervisor winner aye supervisor avalos no supervisor breed aye supervisor campos aye noto supervisor: aye supervisor federal aye supervisor kim know supervisor mark note supervisor chang aye there are five aye and for nose >> seen as this amendment it needed six those to be adopted this amendment fails. now colleagues, before us is the underlying item 52,, and first other to call supervisor breed >> personal i like to duplicate the file and secondly i will not be supporting the resolution today. thank you
9:48 pm
>> supervisor breed has made a singular motion to duplicate the file. i just like to clarify that wanted duplicated file which would you like to see good one is contained supervisor autos is amendments >> for clarity, it would be based on the recently amended item that supervisor avalos has submitted to the board that we approved >> thank you. supervisor: >> i was seconding the duplication >> thank you very much. so now mdm. clerk if we can vote on one of the files in >> after we vote on this matter president then will tend to the duplicate items >> yes >> does the duplicated file require about >> no it does not
9:49 pm
>> on item 52 as amended supervisor winner note supervisor avalos >> this is the underlined ordinance >> aye >> supervisor breed note supervisor compost aye supervisor:, note supervisor fell, note supervisor came, aye supervisor mark aye supervisor chang, no. there are four aye and five no spirit >> this resolution is not adopted. now for the dupe. file. >> just for clarity i want to duplicate the file and send it to committee. >> all right. for the duplicated file mdm. clerk if we can take a roll call vote for sending this to committee. >> supervisor winner aye supervisor avalos, note

9:52 pm
♪ ♪ >> we're here at one of the many food centric districts of san francisco the 18th street corridor which locals have affectionately dubbed the castro. a cross between castro and gastronomic. the bakery, pizza, and dolores park cafe, there is no end in sight for the mouth watering food options here. adding to the culinary delights is the family of business he which includes skylight creamery, skylight and the 18 raisin. >> skylight market has been here since 1940. it's been in the family since 1964. his father and uncle bought the
9:53 pm
market and ran it through sam taking it over in 1998. at that point sam revamped the market. he installed a kitchen in the center of the market and really made it a place where chefs look forward to come. he created community through food. so we designed our community as having three parts we like to draw as a triangle where it's comprised of our producers that make the food, our staff, those who sell it, and our guests who come and buy and eat the food. and we really feel that we wouldn't exist if it weren't for all three of those components who really support each other. and that's kind of what we work towards every day. >> valley creamery was opened in 2006. the two pastry chefs who started it, chris hoover and walker who is sam's wife,
9:54 pm
supplied all the pastries and bakeries for the market. they found a space on the block to do that and the ice cream kind of came as an afterthought. they realized the desire for ice cream and we now have lines around the corner. so, that's been a huge success. in 2008, sam started 18 reasons, which is our community and event space where we do five events a week all around the idea of bringling people closer to where the food comes from and closer to each other in that process. >> 18 reasons was started almost four years ago as an educational arm of their work. and we would have dinners and a few classes and we understood there what momentum that people wanted this type of engagement and education in a way that allowed for a more in-depth conversation. we grew and now we offer -- i think we had nine, we have a
9:55 pm
series where adults learned home cooking and we did a teacher training workshop where san francisco unified public school teachers came and learned to use cooking for the core standards. we range all over the place. we really want everyone to feel like they can be included in the conversation. a lot of organizations i think which say we're going to teach cooking or we're going to teach gardening, or we're going to get in the policy side of the food from conversation. we say all of that is connected and we want to provide a place that feels really community oriented where you can be interested in multiple of those things or one of those things and have an entree point to meet people. we want to build community and we're using food as a means to that end. >> we have a wonderful organization to be involved with obviously coming from buy right where really everyone is treated very much like family. coming into 18 reasons which even more community focused is such a treat. we have these events in the evening and we really try and bring people together.
9:56 pm
people come in in groups, meet friends that they didn't even know they had before. our whole set up is focused on communal table. you can sit across from someone and start a conversation. we're excited about that. >> i never worked in catering or food service before. it's been really fun learning about where things are coming from, where things are served from. >> it is getting really popular. she's a wonderful teacher and i think it is a perfect match for us. it is not about home cooking. it's really about how to facilitate your ease in the kitchen so you can just cook. >> i have always loved eating food. for me, i love that it brings me into contact with so many wonderful people. ultimately all of my work that i do intersects at the place where food and community is. classes or cooking dinner for someone or writing about food. it always come down to empowering people and giving them a wonderful experience.
9:57 pm
empower their want to be around people and all the values and reasons the commitment, community and places, we're offering a whole spectrum of offerings and other really wide range of places to show that good food is not only for wealthy people and they are super committed to accessibility and to giving people a glimpse of the beauty that really is available to all of us that sometimes we forget in our day to day running around. >> we have such a philosophical mission around bringing people together around food. it's so natural for me to come here. >> we want them to walk away feeling like they have the tools to make change in their lives. whether that change is voting on an issue in a way that they will really confident about, or that change is how to
9:58 pm
