it was in10ed to apply to group housing, but at some point the planning department made a unofficial determination group housing wasn't subject to the program. developers proposed a number of market rate housing praij eths. recently also members of the planning commission expressed concerns that group housing is being used as a technical loop hole. thisords nns that i resubmit will make sure we close the technical loop hole and urge the plang commission to delay hearing of the permits of any new group housing projects without inclusionary housing until we move forward with this legislation >> thank you supervisor avalos. supervisor cohen >> thank you. thank madam clerk. colleagues today i introduce a number of items. the first is the draft request to city attorneys

office to prepare legislation that requires both the san francisco police department and the sheriff department to expand not only the type of information collected and recorded, but also when it is collected. for example, here are facts. african american men are [inaudible] drug crimes 19 mere times. we know african american emwn face arrest rate 13 times higher than know other race. over all african americans in san francisco are arrested 3 times more often than other cities in cal. the legislation requires the name, age, race, gender and gender identity to be collected not only during traffic stops rsh but also any time either the department detains, stops or stops for questioning or

search a individual. this information collected will also include whether the stop involved a vehicle search or pat down or such of a individual, the name and badge number of all officers involved, the result of the contact. for example, was a arrest made, was a citation given or warning given, is there a incident report or no action is taken? similar data is collected in oakland, new york and san josay is working toward similar reporting. i hope to quell the disproportionate numbers of arrests of minorities and transgenders communities. we make this nrfshz public and requiring report toog the mayors office as well as the board of supervisors. i'm also equally as excited to

introduce a resolution of intent to form incities first ever green benefit district in dog patch and north west putraro hill. what is the green district you may ask yourself. a few years ago i worked with dedicated neighbors and property owners on creative solutions to fund open space improvement and maintenance in the growing eastern neighborhoods. at the same time i worked to pass legislation which establishes the process residential and commercial property owners can voluntarily assess themselves to pay for improving and creating public parks as well as open space. now, this model is merely a identical to the cities process for forming a community and business improvement districates. this is the first time commercial and residential property owners parbticipate ina sessment

district and the fund could be used for a wider variety of suvss such as graffiti removaling, capital improvement, tree planning and over all park maintenance. you lurd me many times again to discussing the challenges that we are facing, funding and prioritizing new infrastructure improvement in the eastern neighborhood which we know is rapidly developing. this is a creative strategy where the city and neighbors take up the challenge to create a maintain deserately needed public realm and park improvements. i heard from a number of other neighborhood groups acrauz the city looking to form something similar and mautdal the proposals after the work done in dog patch and north west putraro hill. i want to compliment the neighbor frz organizing and advocacy, we couldn't have gotten this far

without their help and also want to recognize key department heads that have been really helpful in helping get this established. persons in dpw, city attorney office as well as reck and park. colleagues i look forward to a hear on these items in committing and advances the first green benefit. the rest i submit >> madam president seeing no other names on the roster that concludes >> at this time the public can comment for up to 2 minutes to include the minutes and items on adoption without #re6erance to committee calendar, items 28-33. public comment isn't allow on items subject to public comtonight a board committee, pursuant to board rule 4.22 direct to the board as a whole. speakers using translation will be allowed

tv area, large bathrooms, well not large but spacious is sufficient. i am not sure how you make that housing these days. the building i lived in, the cooperative it was under collapsed about now it is transitional youth housing so it is still there. i don't know how you would use it for the general population. i just don't think it is right a company is just using this group housing to scrirt inclusionary housing cost to create suben stadered yuts that are incomplete and small. i don't see how that is the right thing to do. >> thank you very much. next speaker, please >> lord jesus christ. good afternoon madam president and members of the board. my name is jason washington. i'm a resident of oakland

and i'm enjoying my visit to san francisco. if you would be patient with me, i would like to comment on the previous motion that was brought forth by madam supervisor. i believe it is irrefutable to contest there are infact members of the african american community who are also members of the lesbian bisexual gay and transgender community. i have seen a trend happening inside of many chambers where they associate the plight and struggle african americans have gone through with the transgender community. i would like to disassociate if i may on 3 grounds. the first ground is one, the

nlsh civil rights movement spear headed by several courageous african americans inside the 1950's and 60's was a result of tedious and detrimental and fierce oppression that we had indured for several centuries and several generations. our brothers and sisters [inaudible] have not experienced that that i know of. second of all, we had no closet to hide into. you can see i'm a member of the african american community proudly. unfochinately there was no closet african americans. we were african americans and subject to that >> thank you. your time is up. thank you. are there any other member thofz pubplic who would like to

provide public comment? >> [inaudible] mta. i think we need to look at this very closely and see if we have a department of the sate that may be out of control. i'm seeing cookie cutter decision being made for all neighborhoods that might not be right for one or two neighborhoods or other things like that. i think we better look at, how do we be able to handle the fact that the mta has no one that can over rule them. i think we need to look at that legislation and see if we can modify it to make it better for this city. i heard from polk street and heard from all over the city now, they are very upset with these plans they pull from

had neighborhoods. this isn't just one neighborhood, this is multiple neighborhoods. we need to really decide what is right for the city, for neighborhood character, the economic development of our different neighborhood districts. we are saying the planning department if you walk in they say you can't do something that runs in with the neighborhood, you have to do a modern building. some places modern buildings work and some places they don't. if anyone wants to see one that doesn't go to [inaudible] in san francisco. i would look at the mta and planning department. thank you >> thank you very much. next speaker please >> good afternoon mrs. president and supervisors. i hope you liked the [inaudible] it was like, no where to run, no where to

>> thank you. good afternoon president breed z members of the board. my name is steve william jz represent the paepts who are the immediate adjacent neighbors of those proposed project. first let me start by saying that the neighbors have a wonderful relationship with the fire fighter squz this is not about opposition to having a neighbor that is a fire house or even the reconstruction of the fire house. it may surprise the board to learn this is the first hearing today, the first public hearing which the neighbors are afforded a tonight to attend. usually by the time a praunlect gets to the board of supervisoratize is fully vetted. the planning commission heard or t or the board of appeals or historic presserivation or building and inspection commission. not in this case. because this is a public building there is only one forum for

resue of the project before a permit issued and that is the art commissions. this project was on the arts commission agenda 4 times including the final review and approval february threne, 2014. not one neighbor or member of the public attended any of those hearings. the project sponsor which in this case is the department of public works actively concealed those hearings from the public. concealed the dates and times and locations while at the same time falsely informing the arts commission the public was notified. the reason i bring this to had attention of the board is it ilkraits just how badly squl j groussly negligent dpw handled this project fraumg the bip gg. they ignoreed the neighbors, they refuses to work with concerned memberoffs the public and sought to have the permits issued for this site

without complying with the most fundamental and basic environmental review requirements. the initial environmental application failed to note the presence of leaking underground storage tanks even though the project description includes the removal and replacement of those tanks or ust. dpw also fay failed to enroll the project in the mar her program with the department of public health. again, a basic mandatory requirement. for any project that has ust or located on bay fill and this project has both. here is dpw and the fire department, the city departments that share responsibility for issuing permits for removal of underground storage tanks and failed to follow the
