evictions to achieve that goal. traditionally it sets the goals if you contract through the city for services. through the legislation the city will get statistics and information from sros, master lease rooms, supportive housing site accident, some sites that receive local funds and other affordable housing programs. the reports will require the number of unlawful detainers issued in court and the reasons? a. the numbers of tenants and house holds removed and the reason for the eviction and protect privacy or no other personal information will be released -- [inaudible] and mo will collect the data from the housing partners and compile the reports with the respective housing portfolios. lastly with this legislation we're encouraging the housing providers -- although we can't mandate it, to provide past statistics and information. we

hope they voluntarily submit this information so we can look at the eviction trends and adapt it and address it. given the vast resources we put into finding individuals and families housed and keeping them housed especially in this environment i want to make sure we're not expending additional resources for them to be evict d and back on the streets. it's a vicious cycle to avoid. i want to thank all of them for the input and support on the legislation as well as the major housing providers that had significant input along the way. it's the first step to address this issue and look forward to having your support today colleagues. >> thank you supervisor farrell. okay. colleagues can we do same house same call for this item? this ordinance is passed on the first reading unanimously. madam clerk can

the city promise, practice or pretense. >> okay. supervisor avalos. >> thank you. colleagues i would like to see if we can continue this item another week? i was going through it and i found there's a lot of questions i still have. whether i can vote on it right now? i feel i couldn't vote in favor of this now because there are questions remain for me whether these are the correct responses. given a week's time i can make the determination on that so i would like to continue the item for one week if that is possible. >> okay. supervisor avalos we do not have a meeting next week so would you like to it for two week sths. >> to our next meeting, yes. >> okay. supervisor avalos made a motion. seconded by supervisor yee and okay i would like to recognize supervisor tang at this time. >> thank you. i just wanted to i guess get a little clarification given that i sit

on gao also with president breed as well and i wanted a better understanding of some of the issues that may be there? i do know that we thought carefully about some of the responses and i know that for some of the recommendations made individual supervisors can even even outside the civil grand jury process can introduce legislation to move forward on some of the recommendations made, so i am just trying to get a clarification on some of the -- [inaudible] >> okay. supervisor tang you would like a response from supervisor avalos? okay. supervisor avalos. >> right. i know they can come up with approving a piece of legislation that appears tao and i'm not sure i am in full agreement with all of the responses. i need more time to be able to go through whether i agree with all of them, and if i am not clear about that i would

tend to vote no if we vote today and i would rather not vote no. after another week's time of reviewing the information -- there's actually a lot of responses that are in here that i think are important to be clear on and i would another week to do that, but if we're going to vote today i would probably vote no and if i have work moving forward on recommendations that are in the legislation that's before us regarding ethics i would come forward with it but i would rather not vote in favor of it and then come forward with legislation that is different from what is recommended in this legislation. >> president yee -- i mean president breed. >> thank you. colleagues i strongly urge that we move this item forward without a continuance. we have heard this twice in gao. we made responses that were approved by the board in the past and these are just a follow ups to a few of the

responses that we approved so this report is a year old and i think it's time to approve it and move on so that is my suggestion so i won't be voting to support a continuance. thank you. okay. supervisor avalos did you want to make additional comments? >> yes, i would please. again i'm not saying i am in disagreement with gao and the process and the decisions made. i just don't feel comfortable to vote in favor right now given that i might want to address some of the issues and i wouldn't want to vote in favor and do something inconsistent with my vote. that's why i wanted to postpone. i could very well support it moving forward, but if there's going to be a vote today i will vote no and it's not a vote that is necessarily against the work that the members have already

done. thank you. supervisor campos. >> thank you president breed. i just want to say that i understand a lot of work has been done on this, but i do believe that's it's important to have additional time to look at all of the issues that are raised here, and to the extent that there may be additional legislation that is introduced i think we want to be careful as those that vote that it's not inconsistent with a "yes" vote today and i think simply giving it two more weeks makes sense. >> okay. not seeing any -- supervisor christensen. >> i just want to say that although i obviously report the work of my colleagues on this i think i have a better excuse than supervisor avalos or supervisor campos for wanting time to be more familiar with this matter so at the moment a continuance would be a

preference on my part. >> okay. with that on the item to continue thank you supervisor christensen for your comments. they are taken into consideration here. madam clerk can you please call the roll for a vote to continue this item. >> supervisor avalos. >> yes. >> supervisor avalos aye. supervisor breed. >> aye. >> aye. >> supervisor campos. >> aye. >> supervisor christensen. >> aye. >> supervisor cohen. >> aye. >> supervisor farrell. >> aye. >> supervisor kim. >> aye. >> supervisor mar. >> aye. >> supervisor tang. >> aye. >> supervisor wiener. >> aye. >> supervisor yee. >> aye. >> there are 11 aye's. >> okay. this item passes for a continuance unanimously to the meeting of january 27. madam

active senior community. we unfortunately lost this building to foreclosure over a year ago going on two years and a tremendously long road to get to where we are today. over the last two years the communities participated in many meetings about the future about this piece of property and i want to thank all of the community members that have remained steadfast and dedicated to seeing this vision come to fruition. it's not just about reclaiming a building but a important symbolic message about this space that this building holds in the community. the city's ownership of the building means that our residents will have a safe and healthy place to gather in the community. it also means we can have a place for families and children to thrive in the valley and i want to acknowledge the leadership of johnup dike in the mayor's office of real estate and jason

deluged the bay area with 6.5 inches of rain, much need but of course at the same time maked the month as the wettest on record in the last 60 years. there are many things that the department of emergency and disaster services were able to do to coordinate efforts that were needed throughout the city but one important identified need that came from the hope office with bevan dusty was the need for emergency shelter for the many residents that live on the streets. >> >> and not able to get a bed in the shelter system and at capacity even when there isn't any rain. the department worked with hope and the city disaster services to quickly ready a shelter at the rec center across the street from my house really in under 24 hours an amazing

task. they set up low bureaucracy temporary shelter where residents could literally walk in and immediately get a bed and also stay through the next day. ecf staffed the shelter bringing in last minute supplies and even staff just throughout the city like bevan saw that we had everything that we needed for everyone that came in. the red cross donated cots and blankets and comfort tips and hygiene packets. the one piece to be addressed in the early stage was food, something that is so obvious, but a gaff that we clearly had. the city's team was concerned about bringing residents out of the rain without food to sustain them. the shelter in the end housing 246 individuals on the nights of december 10 and 11th and with people at varying

stages of health and wellness. the department of human services was only able to coordinate this project after they contacted john mcknight who is before us today, the director of emergency and disaster services and made sure the meals were delivered during the days and he asked two questions. when did the city want the meals and where delivered and how many people needed to be fed? as an example of someone who always says yes we can for the entire team many folk frts city family approached our office to make sure we honor you for your efforts over those three days and i want to acknowledge mr. mcknight for the service to the community, his humanitarian spirit and the rapid response in the face of a challenging situation. he's one of the dedicated staff that came together to make sure that the residents were warm, safe and

secure during the night. he is a graduate of si here in san francisco. supervisor farrell nods in with support as well as uc berkeley and serves in the navy. he worked in the biotech industry before moving to san francisco to do something more meaningful. well, he certainly has. mr. mcknight since you're we want you say a couple of words to this board. i know ben aames i believe -- yes ben is also here as well, our disaster response manager, who also wanted to be here to support your work so ben if you would like to come up as well please do but i want to thank you for your services. it's not often many employees approach our office to commend someone for their work and it's clear that your colleagues appreciate your dedication and leadership. thank you. >> thank you supervisor kim and particularly to the city

and the mayor and ensured that shelter opened up in advance of the storm's approach. many agencies came together to take care of people who would have been left out in the cold literally and the conditions. we were all conditioned about the health and well being and the impact on the health system. ben aames is here from health and human services industry. ms. flores from the red cross and i am john mcknight from the salvation army and the episcopal services came together in a great show of how the city works as a unit, as a team to make sure we take care of each other in times of need. thank you so much for the opportunity to speak.
