. >> thank you very much. next speaker, please. >> good evening. i was sitting in the audience just now. it was almost comical to me how our supervisor and my supervisor was worried about the sugar consumption of black people. well, let's look at this. black people of bay view's point get 1 percent of the amount being spent if you don't know it. 55 percent of black people are prisoners. if you want something to talk about, i'll give smug to talk about. i don't understand why
4:04 pm
for the life of me why supervisors, particularly black supervisors don't understand the days to put black people out of san francisco are damn near over. how can you just think that these white people are not interested in putting black people out of san francisco? if you think that, you're crazy. this has been going on for the last 50 years and now we're down to the point where i was at a meeting last week and was requested to ask you to name bay view hunterer's point africa town. and that was funny in that meeting because it's all right to have china town, korea town, japan town but it ain't okay to have african town. slavery was light at one time. in the constitution, black people were not human. so now we're in the 21st century and there's a law,

i have a two bedroom with my son. i'm a native. why am i unemployed? all i've done here is construction. there's no more love and no more community. all of that is gone in fine stein. this is all about money now. how many supervisors or people work in the city are actually natives or live in the city? it's not many of us around. and then the ones that are still around -- excuse me, they're getting shit and pissed on. this is my city. i graduated in 1983 and i got a letter from galvin new some. it's sad. it's really sad. we're having a mayor

this passes the state that we can get local jurisdiction the legislation does not require a local jurisdiction to wave the tax that would be a problem if they didn't do it so the idea is to promote small business they're doing something similar in florida it is pending working its way through the system we think this is a good statement to assist small businesses we are aware we don't know what the cost is just yet we have down the road of the the department of finance with workout the finance and get back to us. >> scott scott this is to propose it right to jaundice and yeah. yeah. >> so i'm saying the details are unnecessary in this quorum

4:27 pm
building will obey turned into residential condos the venue concern it could pose trishgs for the new neighborhood for the light industrial use will complain and and potentially put the independent in a position to spend thousands of dollars this is thinking about the larger issue citywide which is as the city is pushing for more and more residential development often in nakdz with are not used for residential purposes those residents are running into conflicts that accident small businesses like businesses of entertainment we want to accommodate those in the same neighborhoods and i think that is important if you look at the recent history of the pressures on the small businesses on night life venues we see in a few
4:28 pm
example club come back month the sound factory the bottom of the hill and other businesses the fact is we have a limited number of cultural venues and one pressure is the residential development so what can we do to protect those businesses that bring in $800 million of revenue every year we sat down with the entertainment commission and the police department and the planning department dbi as well as residential developers and the police and thought about how to improve the new residential development with the night life venues and so illicit walk through go quickly what the legislation does that set out a process for new residential project that are going within 3 hundred foot within an existing night life
