in a month and a half we'll all be coming before you with amendments to amend the codification of sb 11 and the endorsement and also the health department is working to make it more fiscal effective and to incorporate the outreach workers around this legislation. >> and i'm happy to answer any questions you may have. >> no questions. >> thank you so much through the chair to dpw and, of course the planning department if anyone has questions for them but as cindy awe lutdz to we've got trailing legislation that will formalize what we're doing to make sure that we have additional tools for various

departments gainful they're short on staff so with that then colleagues if there are no more questions i'll courage galileo's to get this out itch land use commission with a positive >> thank you supervisor president tang. >> any public comment on item 2? seeing none, public comment is closed supervisor kim. >> thank you. i will make that motion as requested by the author of the interim controls i want to recognize the work that dpw has done i went with commissioner president wu fought for this issue because of the growth in her neighborhood and the budget we put aside for the information and the data that's been collected it's sad but it is great we have this data before us it helps us to better address the issues i want to thank supervisor president tang and following up with the legislation to help us better

enforce this issue so i'll make the motion. >> great so the motion to get this to the full board with with a positive recommendation as a committee report and we'll take that without objection. mrashd r that will be the order madam clerk item 3. >> stebd for an additional zoning controls for the conditional use for the financial services for the professional services. >> thank you. i'm the author this resolution extended the upper market by 6 months these controls are requiring conditional use for ground floor business and professional services and limited financial services having a commercial corridor with too many of those office like uses deadened the corridor

it is important to have community oversight and with we're looking at retail galileo's space i'm looking at the development of upper market and the retail space coming online it's important we not just allow the property owners to default to the title companies and other authorizations when when we have too much it is a problem for the neighborhood we passed 240 those interim controls last year, we've introduced permanent legislation for upper market and the castro and the 24th street and that's moving forward but we need additional time f with that, no comments i'll open it up for public comment unless the planning department wants to say anything okay. great any public comment on item 3 seeing none, public

comment is closed colleagues would i have a motion to forwarded item 3 to the full board with a positive recommendation as a committee report moved by supervisor cowen we'll take that without objection. madam clerk call item 4. >> item 4 an ordinance amending the mrapd with the commercial district. >> okay. i'm the author of item 4 colleagues, i know we've had quite a few of the arcade game regulations come 0 through the board this is the next supervisor breed and i are rationalizing the irrational approach in the please be advised the ringing of and use of cell phones, planning code i guess what some people say is a nuisance back in the day and the legislation before us will principally allow the arcades within the transit district and the legislation was considered

and supported unanimously by planning commission as you recall this follows previous prevention active efforts including the legislation from supervisor breed and myself to provide an exemption from the police code for the regulations for 10 arcades along upper market street and the laxative i sponsored with supervisor breed i know it was passed by this board and the legislation offered by supervisor breed updating the planning code with respect to the games and as recent legislation a history shows you the arresting cascade grams are regulated introduce a complicated and overlap and in both the planning code and the police code generated in 1980s during a different time the 80s

they were seen as a distraction for kids and today every kid as an plantation and the pinballs are becoming a novelty and we've seen several bars on up that are centered around arcade games with the legislation the locations along upper market will no longer be regulated how many pinball machines and will have an entertainment permit that insure the arresting david's kinds are a positive impact to the community i am considering this citywide because frankly the planning code didn't have a lot to say around the arresting cascade games we're considerably that and stay tuned to colleagues, i ask for your support. >> on i know that planning

staff is here. >> good afternoon, supervisors determining sanchez with the planning department i want to say on december 18th the commission heard the proposed legislation and it unanimously recommended approval for the land moefgsz to consider up to 4 mechanic all and another entertainment uses within the upper mount that concludes my presentation. if you have any questions, i'll be happy to answer them thank you. >> thank you very much any public comment on item number 4 seeing none, public comment is closed and colleagues, i would you couldn't ask for a motion to forward item 4 to the full board with a positive recommendation we'll take that without objection. that will be the

order madam clerk call item 5. >> amending the police code for establishment that are entered into the contracts to provide the contractors with copies of the police code. >> okay. and supervisor breed is the author of item 5 i believe that mr. johnson from her office will be joining us this is him now there he is. >> galileo's guys move so fast here it's a good nirng thing any office is close i'm the perspective aid there supervisor breed i think that is the most important legislation you'll see all year thank you for laughing it was a joke. >> this was probably a verbal amendment that supervisor breed

would have done on the floor when the two legislation were going through but it was president chiu's last meeting she didn't want to delay it the jest of it is the two pieces of formula retail that passed if december exploded new requirements on the shutter contractor of formula retail when the lobby becomes operative on july 3rd of this year those contractors will be notified about the new contracts as negotiated, however, there is a collapse a small collapse of companies operating under existing contracts that under the current law will not be notified about the 94 new laws so all it does for the existing contractors the janitorial contractors operating under the

contracts let's make sure that the formula retails disclose to the contractors and a hey, the board of supervisors just passes this and it impacts galileo's it is a notification provision nights in p there for contractors less back date that from the pedestrian or period of january 4th and july 3rd the operator active date i want to ask in the last minute conversation with the deputy city attorney josh white we noticed something that will be probably good to fix in the legislation before you today it uses the date of april the first that mr. white pegged on the noticeable understanding it will be probably more accurate to use january 4th now the effective date of the original pieces of legislation if we could i request if galileo's could

introduce a motion to amend package 23 where it says april 1st to the current effective date january 24th and liquor store page four to change that to january 4th and for the second piece that will be page 10 line 12 it says april 1st change that to january you figure out and line 14 change that to january 4th we're capturing the universe of the contractors that may have existing contracts under did you current legislation wouldn't know it if that makes sense. >> it did. >> thank you. is there any questions. >> thank you okay. is there any public comment on item 5? seeing none, public comment is closed so colleagues could i have a

motion to adapt the amendments as described and so moved and without objection those amendments are adapted and can i have a motion to forward item 5 as amended to the full board with a positive recommendation >> 70. >> we'll take that without objection. that will be the order i neglected to thank sfgovtv for broadcasting and madam clerk, any other business before this committee? >> that concludes our business for today. >> then we are adjourned

>> hi. welcome to san francisco. stay safe and exploring how you can stay in your home safely after an earthquake. let's look at common earthquake myths. >> we are here at the urban center on mission street in san francisco. we have 3 guest

today. we have david constructional engineer and bill harvey. i want to talk about urban myths. what do you think about earthquakes, can you tell if they are coming in advance? >> he's sleeping during those earthquakes? >> have you noticed him take any special? >> no. he sleeps right through them. there is no truth that i'm aware of with harvey that dogs are aware of an impending earthquake. >> you hear the myth all the time. suppose the dog helps you get up, is it going to help you do something >> i hear they are aware of small vibrations. but yes, i read extensively that dogs

cannot realize earthquakes. >> today is a spectacular day in san francisco and sometimes people would say this is earthquake weather. is this earthquake weather? >> no. not that i have heard of. no such thing. >> there is no such thing. >> we are talking about the weather in a daily or weekly cycle. there is no relationship. i have heard it's hot or cold weather or rain. i'm not sure which is the myth. >> how about time of day? >> yes. it happens when it's least convenient. when it happens people say we were lucky and when they don't. it's terrible timing. it's never a good time for an earthquake. >> but we are going to have one. >> how about the ground

swallowing people into the ground? >> like the earth that collapsed? it's not like the tv shows. >> the earth does move and it bumps up and you get a ground fracture but it's not something that opens up and sucks you up into haddes. >> it's not going anywhere. we are going to have a lot of damage, but this myth that california is going to the ocean is not real. >> southern california is moving north. it's coming up

from the south to the north. >> you would have to invest the million year cycle, not weeks or years. maybe millions of years from now, part of los angeles will be in the bay area. >> for better or worse. >> yes. >> this is a tough question. >> those other ones weren't tough. >> this is a really easy challenge. are the smaller ones less stress? >> yes. the amount released in small earthquakes is that they are so small in you need many of those. >> i think would you probably have to have maybe hundreds of magnitude earthquakes of 4.7. >> so small earthquakes are not

making our lives better in the future? >> not anyway that you can count on. >> i have heard that buildings in san francisco are on rollers and isolated? >> it's not true. it's a conventional foundation like almost all the circumstances buildings in san francisco. >> the trans-america was built way before. it's a pretty conventional foundation design. >> i have heard about this thing called the triangle of life and up you are supposed to go to the edge of your bed to save yourself. is there anything of value to that ? >> yes, if you are in your room. you should drop, cover and hold onto something. if you are in school, same thing, kitchen same thing. if you

happen to be in your bed, and you rollover your bed, it's not a bad place to be. >> the reality is when we have a major earthquake the ground shaking so pronounced that you are not going to be able to get up and go anywhere. you are pretty much staying where you are when that earthquake hits. you are not going to be able to stand up and run with gravity. >> you want to get under the door frame but you are not moving to great distances. >> where can i buy a richter scale? >> mr. richter is selling it. we are going to put a plug in for cold hardware. they are not available. it's a rather complex. >> in fact we don't even use the richter scale anymore. we use a moment magnitude. the

richter scale was early technology. >> probably a myth that i hear most often is my building is just fine in the loma prieta earthquake so everything is fine. is that true ? >> loma prieta was different. the ground acceleration here was quite moderate and the duration was moderate. so anyone that believes they survived a big earthquake and their building has been tested is sadly mistaken. >> we are planning for the bigger earthquake closer to san francisco and a fault totally independent. >> much stronger than the loma prieta earthquake. >> so people who were here in '89 they should say 3 times as strong and twice as long and

that will give them more of an occasion of the earthquake we would have. 10 percent isn't really the threshold of damage. when you triple it you cross that line. it's much more damage in earthquake. >> i want to thank you, harvey, thanks pat for welcome to north beach. sunny day. thank you everybody for coming out. especially if i

if i may special thanks to all of our board of supervisor who are here today. elected officials, our commissioners, police and fire department. people. the city are recreational about our libraries, all of this is is better up here. many of whom i've engaged in many dialogues around the last month. i want to say thank you everyone for getting your input to me. you know, i want to say that this is an exciting day. while my little tired because of all the activities of the last 30 years, i had to do a marathon i know that this isn't, district 3, is a very, dated, very diverse, and one of the most exciting districts in all of san francisco. >>, >> >> i recognize that because i spent a good part of my adult

professional career indecision degree in chinatown and i know that chinatown, north beach told rafael, russian hill, nabil, both lower and upper and middle, middle upper, lower you know, fisherman's wharf, the financial adjuster, the waterfront, it's incredible diversity that makes up this district. that's why when i had a many many chats with david chiu before he successfully left his position to kind of understand what he had gone through as a supervisor for this district, it's no less important that every other district in san francisco. i say to you with great gratitude to the members of the board because i know that for the last 30 days i spent some great time here and i kind of put

myself a little bit in what a supervisor would do on a daily basis. i was down there at lombard street on the backside making sure that cliff wasn't going to be following when we got those heavy rains. i reordered myself for what i did many years ago i'm just walking the streets as i had copied with different people of different interests. to talk about what this district needed. and quickly came to the conclusion, after so much great input by people, that they wanted someone who recognized the strength of this diverse community in this gesture. was willing to spend hours understanding the issues, glistening before acting, but then acting to make sure things got done. and when whether it was potholes, transportation, housing, safety, all these things, cultural, art, playgrounds, families, seniors, renters, property owners as well, all of that came in to play and was all the diverse

topics that had to be covered. i also came to the conclusion that i needed to find someone who had the experience as well as the commitment to do this job and you know, i even had a chance to talk with several members of the current board of supervisors to kind of see what they go through on a daily basis and i've been with them as i've gone through different core doors of the city. i have shared with them the things that come my way along with things that come their way and will more we've gotten together closer with the board of supervisors. and i hope that's been reflected in the kind of conversations we had have had on a citywide basis. but getting back to the station, it gave me a really good sense of what it needed and the characteristics of a person, they are compassion as well as

their advocacy for this district become very important. well you know, i want to say that i found somebody that reflected that. someone who spent a good 20+ years living in this district. a business owner. a small business owner, but also somebody that has been also out here putting together campaign after campaign to improve parks, preserve open space, improve that open space . i've known julie since my city administrator days when she and so many others told me here to make sure we got those library done. isn't this a fantastic library, jeff [applause] >> i wouldn't say it's no longer your grandfather's grandmothers library. this is an interactive library with so many generations of people. same things that happened with this joe dimaggio part with

julie's leadership and leadership of this board and relationships that are being built. >> [applause] >> i also want to say this. that i know you should know, this is been a very, dated decision-making. i've had to talk -- the way i make a decision was to write was the right way. it somebody that i did before and that is talk to the people. make sure that you make a connection to the people live here who work here every day. get their input because that's going to ground this decision. i did that and i got grounded very quickly and i'm confident that worked on have a lot of shared stories, a lot of shared history, but a lot of shared accomplishments of julie christiansen. you know, i've seen in her the spark, the innovative spirit mike the dynamism that this district needs. i know that she will be as much a advocate for this

area of the city as she will be for chinatown, for polk street, for venice, cover all parts of the entire district. i know she will do that because she's got that spirit and that commitment. i know that she will also reach across to all the members of the board of supervisors and be a good compatriot i'm at a good supervisor that works with the others. as she clearly has a support. and so, i'm excited to introduce to you someone who has been a very good figure here, but also an active person, capers district but also someone who is now going to be in the public round representing all of this district neighborhood and supervisor. please, let me present to you the next supervisor for district 3, julie christiansen. >> [applause] >>
