your friends and family are waiting to give you hugs and some folks are waiting in your offices to just congratulate some of the reelected supervisors and to welcome our new colleagues here today. so, i will try to be as brief as possible. i am truly honored and truly grateful to be here today. to be the president of the san francisco board of supervisors, this is pretty amazing. to be the second african-american woman to serve in this capacity, it is truly amazing. thank you colleagues. thank you to mayor lee, to our clerk, angela lo and her staff, and to the city attorney. too many of the staff in this building and to the people who continue to work with us every single day. i know kate howard is not here our budget chair. i want to acknowledge her. then

rose in those and harvey rose and others who help us work together to put our budgets together to deal with the city. nicole weigand from the mayor's office. i see josé cisneros art treasure. i'd knowledge all these people because when it's time to deal with our budget, i want to make sure that the money goes to the right places and these are the people who make it happen in our city. thank you. thank you to my staff. thank you to o'connor johnston per carry in my purse on occasion and continuing to be a great staff member. one circa, who is always readily available to do whatever it takes to make sure that our folks are office is being run well into valley brown takes amazing care of district 5. thank you very much for being an amazing support to me. and i want to thank the residents of district 5. the residents of district 5 are the ones who i

believed in the who gave me this opportunity and i am grateful and will continue to do everything i can to serve district 5 now as i move into the presidency as a representative to not only for the residents of district 5, but a representative for the entire city. i sit up here today reflecting on where i started and it was not very far from here. public housing unit, living anywhere from 5-9 people living there on $700 a month with my grandmother, my aunt, my brother, my sisters at times. i remember us standing in church lines to get donated food and standing in firehouse lines were in christmas time to get toys. i remember when i was 12 seen my friend get shot right in front of us as we were trying to enjoy ourselves outside. i remember the cycling

meeting reusing anything that we could because, for example, when you are drinking, for example, we had jars that we we used as glasses because in many cases is those were some of the basic things that we could not afford. i remember feeling left out, isolated being powerless as i watched the city move by all around me. but the good news is that i had a grandmother and a community who love to me and early on i learned lessons that san franciscans should carefully remember today. wells is nothing without love. without compassion. i was loved and embraced by a system even with all of its faults, cared about me. each morning i woke up in a federally funded housing units. i wrote a city in a small bus

to a public school. i had dedicated teachers who believed in me and helped me secure government loans to go to a state school. what we do here has ever been academic for me. i am the product of liberal policies. i am here because liberal policies can work. they can offer a can of to those who need them the most. i may sit here as president of the board of supervisors, but i will never forget that isolated girl in public housing. because at one point or another, we all are a supervisor or the lonely girl. we all are the landlord or the tenant. we are we all are the homeless man or the tech titan. we all are these people and we should never sacrifice one for another. i served the african-american art and culture complex and iran for supervisor because i wanted

to help those who felt left out, those who felt left behind. that's what drives me that's who i am. i am not a moderate. i'm not a progressive. i am a san franciscan through and through. and i believe san francisco does not need ideology. we need results. we need a balanced budget. we need safe streets, clean parks, a public transportation system that works. we need job opportunities , supportive services, ambulances that arrive on time and public schools that keep our families and san francisco. and most of all, we need affordable and safe housing for our residents. we can achieve all of these goals together. as i look around this chamber this evening i think what an honor it is to work alongside some incredible people. i consider myself fortunate to be able to work with supervisor articles on environmental

protections and clean power. supervisor:, and public safety issues and the afghan american community. supervisor mark on formula retail and the things that were doing together with midcity arts and our arts community. supervisor tang on rebuilding keys are tracked and working with you on government audit and oversight committee on some of the technical details that no one finds sexy. supervisor came on workforce training. supervisor yee on pedestrian safety. supervisor farrell on balancing the city budget. and our public housing eviction legislation. supervisor campos on healthcare. before for all workers. supervisor wiener on well supervisor wiener on pretty much everything, but especially

on transportation which i know you really cared deeply about. and i look forward to working with our new colleagues, supervisor christiansen, who i know is a significant plated significant role in rebuilding the north beach library just truly a jewel in the community. the important point to me is that each one of us can say that it's about each one of our colleagues. we share a passion and issue a district problem with each other. we are stronger when we work on these issues together. i hold an enormous debt of gratitude for showing me how a board president can build consensus. and foster an environment where doing the diesel people's business is more important than waging political fights. i thank katie tang for stepping in to continue that role and i pay homage to former supervisor doris ward, the first african-american female board president who plays the trail for me today. i intend to follow in those footsteps. i

will make grounds committee assignments. i will run efficient collegiate meetings and i will always maintain an open line of medication. with my colleagues. i know i can be direct. at times and sometimes a little too blunt but you will know where i stand and know that i will respect each and every one of you 100 percent. i will do all that i can to keep our board of supervisors meetings from being covered by campaign for other offices and i will start as soon as six members show up to the chamber at 2:00 pm. we have a nornes challenge before us yet fundamentally to me a it boils down to two things: growth and security. we are adding jobs but losing confidence. over the next 25 years we will have

250,000 new people wanting to live here in addition to over the 800 800,000 who are already struggling to stay here. how can we accommodate this growth? were any growth if our own residents don't feel secure in their own homes? how can we roll out the welcome mat while we show our friends and neighbors the door? san francisco has the highest or second highest, rent in the country depending on which report you read and is the least affordable to buy a home. between 2010 and 2013 we added about one new housing unit for every 10 new residents. we need to build about 18,000 new affordable units and the next seven years and along with supervisor: i'm committed to doing everything we can to rebuild public housing. yet, can the last seven years we only build one third of that

number. even if we can securely have everyone, the city's not there to serve a larger population. many of our invisible lines are running over capacity already. emergency medical calls have gone up over 20 percent in the last decade. but our indolence of resources have not kept up with that. san franciscans given cisco still almost 300 police officers short of our minimum staffing levels that voters set over 20 years ago. as a city we have to make tough decisions. how hard we fight to house our residents will report build affordable units we need, if we are to grow can we do it without sacrificing our unique personality? can we create a 21st-century transportation system or provide 21st-century services to all of our residents? these are the questions we face and they are not easy. but as

robert kennedy said, if our times seem difficult and perplexing, so to are the challenges and so to are the challenges built with filled with opportunity. i for one, believe as i was up in san francisco's ability to meet those challenges. san francisco is for america what america has always been for the world. a place of hope. for centuries, the dreamers of the pioneers, the wanderers, and the misfits have had breast in search of fortune in search of freedom in search and west because there you will be accepted for who you are. that's what it means to be a san franciscan. it is the pride of scene 36 states legalize gay marriage when only a decade ago we were alone in

the woods. in the world. it's building the bridge over the water no one thought we could cross and doing it again your later. it's winning three world series in five years. it's trusting the girl from public housing with the board presidency. it is the belief that something is only impossible if san francisco has not done it first. our city is a beacon that shines -- the light that shines the way. from the chambers of city hall, to the shores of the pacific, i tell you with all my heart i am proud to stand beside you as we shine that light for the rest of the world. again, thank you to my colleagues. thank you to my city community. thank you to my friends and family. it is truly an honor to be here to serve as your president and i am truly look forward to 2015 and what it has to offer. together, i know we will all be doing great things. thank you.

>>, >> [applause] >>and with that, madam clerk.modem we all been waiting for other any other items? >> madame president that concludes our business for today >> thank you you at this meeting is adjourned.
