want, i know you have signage at the recommendation but i want you to also look at applications, you know, access and try to bring that to (inaudible). >> thank you. next speaker please. >> hi, my name is carolyn toleron, i work for the veteran's equity but i also come here, a san francisco resident who has applied for affordable housing and i have applied to the mayor's office

of housing community development below market rate rental program and i have stood in line in some of those developments trying to drop off an application and i've seen folks who have been turned away because their primary language is not english. and i've seen families struggling like filling out housing applications so i really do want to push for looking at language access as one of the barriers to access to affordable housing. >> thank you very much. are there any other member s of the public who would like to comment? seeing none, we will close public comment. supervisor tang >> thank you again so much for everyone who came here and shared your comments. just speaking on the issue of applications, that's certainly part of the scope of the ordinance in terms of document translation. so whether you are the planning department that has permit applications or mayor's office of housing with

housing applications, those are all things we do want to see brought in line. i think our goal and why we wanted to eliminate the tier system is that it really creates a false sense of, okay, maybe i don't need to translate these things or i don't need to provide interpretation services and we thought it was important that all of us, all city departments have to be brought in line. the second component was that we really wanted to strengthen ocea as sort of the public for where we can access information, seek help for the various departments and so we're going to look to see how we could do that through this year's budget process. so, with that, i know that our nonprofit partners are going to be a huge part of this effort throughout the years, it's not going to end here. with that i would like to actually just make a motion for the amendments that i stated earlier and leave supervisor yee's opportunity to make his amendment at the full board. if we could take that without objection.

>> we can take that without objection. >> thank you very much. >> and we will forward to the board with recommendation. >> motion to move if forward to the full board with positive recommendation. >> we will take that without objection and thank you for working on this very important effort. okay can we go on back to item no. 8? i'm not sure we called that yet. we did? okay, great. so we did call item no. 8 and this item, what we can do is move forward as is to the full board. >> i don't think i did call it. i did not call it. item 8 is a motion (inaudible) supervisor david campos to the golden gate bridge highway transportation district. >> this item we can move forward and if there are changes we can make them at that time.

>> so moved. >> we will take that -- oh before taking that without objection we'll open this up for public comment. any member of the public like to comment on item no. 8? seeing no member of the public come forward we will close public comment on item no. 8 and we'll take that motion without objection. madam clerk, do we have any other items before us? >> that concludes our business for today. >> okay, we are adjourned, thank you.
