mckenzie. >> i'm here to share an additional component i've proposed for a number of years to the warriors to include a high school classroom inside that arena there's a couple of good articles recently regarding the warriors community foundation and i'm provided you with information this morning requesting that the warriors and the city leaders include in their proposals providing education for our kids i teach in san francisco public schools and also at the juvenile hall where the high school program there is a woodside learning center i'm requesting the
2:01 pm
warriors work in partnership with the county schools which includes a facility out in la honeyed in the snuz they've struggled about how to utility that property it has tremendous potential i provided you a brief description of the woodside learning center and rather than i gave an article on the golf maintenance and training program at juvenile many have to go to a group home for a year increase a lot of facilities on the east coast that trains kids in a high school program so there's also just recently started at the
2:02 pm
glen eagle glove course some of the ideas are the proposal has been speaking about where the warriors and all professional supporters have a trurls influence on those kids with the warriors making presentations in a gymnasium at woodside for example, a beautiful not beautiful it is a separate basketball cabin ramp those sgrathsdz or integrates the train programs for all the caesar's creasing careers and when warriors or athletics or administrators come in and provided instruction and introduction to the careers the worries have a influential role
2:03 pm
to do that thank you very much and i'm supportive of this beautiful arena thank you. >> thank you. >> mr. johnson freddie be danielle and john. >> hello, everybody my name is ken johnson a native san franciscan from south park my parents had a claernts with devastated when we built moscone center we lost our cleaners and but then as a i grew they built the moscone center i was part of an organization called black man powering power we have the contractor for this moscone center and we make sure that resident of san francisco worked there and we had you know the different minority and everything had a equal different
2:04 pm
people from different communities and i want you all to do the same thing with the new development because you have people residents that live in the city that own all this development you don't have people that work in the city not working you need to make sure that the residents are trained if you have an untrained citizen once the project starts by the time it the finished he's got a skill so you have got to reduce crime you need to have an compliance office making sure the residents are hired from the community i wanted to also found out if urged to have an ongoing community benefit plan where the money is jade from this place a certain amount going to community organizations to help
2:05 pm
them so i don't know did you guys talk back and forth or take those comments and put them in your box. >> we took them in and at the appropriate time address them and the community compliance office is really important that's how you reduce crime and give people a chance to gain a skill to have a good life. >> thank you freddie. >> hello commissioners. i'm freddie live in the potrero and small business owner for over 18 years i'm here to voice my opinion for the warriors i've spent 4 decades watching it change 2, 3, 4 a great deal of pits to business living spaces
2:06 pm
and the giant ball park in my opinion the ball park sparked a growth of diversity in that area i firmly building the professional office buildings have self-concentrated cafeterias and board and game roof decks room they encourage they're subject to stay within the waltz alike those small businesses in this area paying the taxes and providing the jobs for the u.n. skilled labors we hugely benefit from projects it brings people into the area and enjoy our neighborhoods brings in the foot traffic not just the passers through the arena provides a great community designation space i believe will give the spark and energy like
2:07 pm
wants ball park did for the neighborhood so i believe you should embrace the warriors with great ass precisions mr. landry. >> thank you to the commissioners and to, of course, the audience well, first of all, i'm daniel i've been here before i wear many hats but here as a result promoter a lot of people don't realize in the loose 15 or 20 years i've been successful up to date on events that's how i make a recalling you've got to give the warriors credit they hit a 3 pointer i went to the original port moseying and what looking at pier 30/32 and even
2:08 pm
then i was questioning where the stadium would be at maybe the mission bay insistence 31 may have as a promoter i want to say this is a tremendous opportunity like one of the jae gentleman spoke about for youth and some of the schools in our district we've got to understand that this is not just the warriors coming to san francisco but the may be coming to san francisco and what some of the challenges was like the depopulation this is a way to repopulate your ears with oomentd and join in participating and have programs like upper bound for years which was at ucsf i've been agency from the meetings because i had
2:09 pm
a new born but willing to support not only a san franciscan but one the thought people that comes from the we the jury western edition and certificate of preference holder i think one of the things that will add an asset to the stadium and all the events putting on events that somehow give opportunity to the very areas that was somewhat impacted by the redevelopment agency as well as the overall city master plan and another thing about this too i believe that you know say for instance i had a young man that told me he cuts hair and wanted to have a retail space at the warriors stadium we all know may be players love hair cuts i love

2:11 pm
sports and contributed $365 million these numbers are impressive with you we are leaving money, money open the table and due to a number of factors wyoming when taking care of one the factors through the expansion of the moscone center which is breaking ground soon we can leverage this joint investment by creating a new venture our major customers continually tells us we need to accommodate 167 thousand or more participant like the general assembling assembly of the democrat working national convention the republicans may not come here but the wba final
