some of the bonfires had ended. but just people celebrate. i'll just say sur fighter foundation has been doing heroic work cleaning up ocean beach over and over again every year. and i'm impressed by their ability to mobilize so many people and to do it in such a fun way as well. and i was also shocked and horrified about -- by how many straws, cigarette butts, little plastic stuff that i could pick up in a short amount of time like many others did and that basically tons and pounds of garbage left on the ocean beach and how many people that you mobilize to really clean it up. we need to do so much more. but we also need a culture of leave no trace and protecting the environment that is so important that sur fighter foundation promotes in its campaigns. i also wanted to say san francisco's rise above plastic program continues to look for ways to reduce plastic pollution. and they've turned their attention to plastic straws, a

common item picked up at the sur fighter beach clean up. you can make a difference by urging businesses in your neighborhoods to only give straws by request or to switch to more sustainable options like straws made of materials that are not plastic. sur fighter foundation and the rise above plastic work is critical. it's grass roots campaigns involving regular people that really help us bill awareness to change the* culture in our society but also to reduce impact on the environment that we depend onto live and for the future generations. please join me in honoring our earth day hon rees -- brian dough* eva and shannon in the sur fighter foundation. >> [applause]. >> thank you very much. we are really honored to be here. thank you supervisor mar and all the other supervisors here. as supervisor mar mentioned, we are

a group of volunteers. and so, we come from a variety of different backgrounds. we all care about the ocean for a variety of different reasons. some of us are surfers. some of us just want to ensure there are clean oceans and beaches. me personally, one of the first reasons i got involved was one of the first times i went surfing found lots of different trash at the surf spot i was at. so i was tucking it into my wet suit. "i'll throw that away later." so i tucked it into my sleeves. when i got out of the water there was a diaper floating in the water next to me. i was surfing in a storm drain outlet. a lot of that just washes off the street p.so wi do do a lot of education upstream to try to understand if something doesn't get put into a trash can end up in the ocean and end up affecting all of us. we should all have access to clean oceans and clean beaches. so thank you so much.

i'm going to see if my colleagues want to say a word. >> i'm just going to be really quick and invite you all to join us for a beach clean up. it really changes your perspective. just going out there one time can change what you buy, what you purchase for your own home, what you use for your kids. >> i also want to thank the board of supervisors. one thing i'd like to remind everyone -- this kind of issue is not limited to what's just in neighborhoods. everything from middle america to right here run off the ocean. it doesn't matter where we are. being a neighborhood that resides by the ocean. these issues will keep propping up. i'm happy to tackle them along with you guys. >> thank you for your work

volunteerism by people around the park. that has led to major improvements. major one we're going to see coming forward along this corridor along mancel*. right now there are four lanes crews along four dividers. they'll be reduced down to two lanes. one lane on either side. with a bike path as well as pedestrian pathways as well. greening and surfaces. that corridor, once it's done, will be a tremendous thing that will link both sides of the park together, not just the neighborhoods around, but the people who are actually using the park from dog walkers to hikers to people who just want to enjoy the view that's around there. if you haven't been to mcclairn park recently, i would check it out. it's a really great place to really enjoy what is very scenic and often very quiet part of san francisco. so i want to put a plug in for the park.

and i want to thank all the different entities that have worked to make this happen ksh dbw, there are funding store sources that come from the prop double a, lots of different sources. so really great to see. come now and come later and come often to mcclairn park. >> thank you supervisor avalos. colleagues can we take this item same house same calling. without objection this adopted unanimously item 29 is a. >> retroactively children use accept and spend 1 million grant from the u.s. department of justice for multi-disciplinary partnership to reduce recidivism and providing framework for preventing prison pipeline march 1 to december 1, 2015. >> same house same call. without objection this resolution is adopted unanimously. next item please. >> item 30 is an ordinance to amend business

roster. colleagues, can we take this item same house same call. without objection this ordinance is passed unanimously on the first reading. item no. 32. >> item 32 -- resolution to authorize the nomination of five new priority conservation areas. the pe lieu natural area. the bay view hill and a half ral area. across town trail. connecting twin peaks. and the san francisco bay area water trail. >> supervisor mar. >> thank you colleagues. i wanted to thank supervisor cohen for joining me as co-sponsors on this important resolution. in 2007, there were four priority conservation areas in san francisco where pca's submitted to the association of bay area governments i believe supervisor christensen and kim. these green areas of our city are natural oasis for san francisco and they need to be protected and maintained.

however, the areas minimal input from our cities and agencies. so in november of last year we authorized the department to nullify these pca's and conduct a more comprehensive study and to determine what san francisco's new pca's would be. so beginning january of this year the rec and park department as well as nonprofits like the green belt alliance and the california native plant society began their work. and the goal was to bring a science-based approach from the department of the environment green belt alliance with a hands-on and obs vaiblg work frrt* to go along with the policy support found in rec and parks work. i think the new areas that are proposed here incorporate all of the original ideas while expanding their scope to be nor inclusive of the vongd natural areas while capturing some new areas in our city. pe lieu belt's natural area is not changed.

the green connection mcclairn park pivot is a brand new area in the southeast part of our city. glen canyon aka twin peaks bioregion is a new area. but it incorporates previous twin peaks and tower area at the top heights of our city. for this i urge your support along with supervisor cohen. >> thank you supervisor mar. colleagues, can we take this item same house same call? without objection, this ordinance is passed unanimously on first reading. madam clerk, can you call the next item. >> item 33 -- ordinance to amend the administrative code to establish the children and family council and to amend structure and functions. >> supervisor breed. >> colleagues wz a you know our city has remarkable resources for children, youth and families, san francisco still has the lowest percentage of children of any major city in

the united states. we can all agree that this needs to be changed. the -- our children our families council was established by voters through the passage of proposition c last november. the council with the mayor and the superintendent of schools bring together department heads, district heads, and community members to develop a strategic plan on how we will retain families in san francisco and hopefully attract more families in our cities. over the past several months my office worked closely with the mayor's office. department of children and family. broad group of community members to create the initial structure for this council. the council will not only create a strategic plan but also be tasked with coordinating services to maximize support for children, youth, and families in san

francisco development and accessible transit. we have so much to lose when families leave the city. families of all backgrounds add to the city's unique character welcome culture, diversity and vibrancy. so we need to act now to help shape the future generations of our city. i am proud that our mayor and superintendent are committed to this long-term vision and are ready to lead this council. i will also wanted to thank supervisor avalos, kim, christenen camp pos and mar for cosponsoring this legislation. i also want to thank my legislative aid jen lo who is always working tirelessly on this legislation. i want to thank the staff at the mayor's

office. san francisco unified school district children's funding coalition and our children -- our city stakeholders group for being so involved in this legislative process. i also want to thank our city attorney tom owen who worked diligently with our office on many grounds of amendments. you should have before you a list of minor clerical amendments made to the ordinances, the rules committee meeting. so i without going through these minor amendments. i just ask that they be amended. colleagues, let's work together to bringing families back to san francisco. i hope you will join me in supporting the work of this council today. thank you. >> okay. seeing no other names on the roster, supervisor ye just for clarity, you propose the specific amendment? >> the amendments are included in the handout. i do receive latest version.

and they're all minor. pretty much cleaned up language. >> okay. so supervisor ye, are you makes a motion to move forward with those amendments? >> yes. >> okay. supervisor ye has made a motion seconded by supervisor campos. can we take those amendments without objection? without objection those ealts pass. and on the underlying item, can we take this item same house same call? seeing no objection, the ordinance is passed unanimously on the first reading. >> as amended. >> as amended -- thank you, madam clerk. okay. so we have done our commendations. and we will skip over that and go to our committee reports. madam clerk, can you please call item no.34. >> items 34-36 were considered by the neighborhood ask services committee on a regular meeting april 16 and were forwarded as committee reports. item 34 was recommended as amended. ordinance to amend the health code to ban the use of

tobacco products to amend the definition of a tobacco product to be a device or any portion of device to consume tobacco products. >> supervisor far l. >> thank you supervisor breed. colleagues, thank you for considering my. i want to thank first of all my colleagues who have cosponsored this -- supervisor mar, chris 10 zone, wiener, campos for your help. i'm pushing forward this legislation for a number of reasons. first of all, the negative health effects of smokeless tobacco are crystal clear. ucsf's center for smoke education shows increases did the risk of oral and pancreatic cancer, nicotine addiction and the in additionuation of

smoking among adolescents.* modeling of smokeless tobacco use by family, friends, and elite athletes is strongly associated with smokeless tobacco initiation. as someone who used to chew myself i know how addicting it should be. it should have no place in our baseball fields where it could influence our youth. but most importantly i'm doing this for my own children. as a father of three and coach of my son's baseball team for the last few years, i want to send the right message to him, to our team and to the entire city's youth by saying smokeless tobacco disunt have any place in baseball expirt isn't necessary to make it to the big leagues. the future of children should not be a future of chewing tobacco. what's shocking to me even as cigarette use continues a

decline smokeless tobacco use has remained troublely steady. every year kids ages 12 to 17 use for the first time. public health issue affectingsing our children and millions across the country. and it's once again the time for san francisco to take the lead by showing tobacco use is harmful. the ordinance itself is very clear. it will not affect or dictate what individuals do on their own personal time. it will certainly hope to contribute to the willingness to quit because of the negative health effects. it simply states tobacco related products including chewing tobacco will not be allowed at stadiums or fields across san francisco. it will apply to everyone at at&t park whether a coach,
