was doing laundry and one of my homeless neighbors, someone who i see often in that intersection was lying in the laundromat unresponsive and there was myself, there was a laundromat owner, we were trying to see if he needed help, what we can do. we had no choice but to call an ambulance to help get him to san francisco general. there is an ambulance on that corner of 26th and south bin called everyday and there has been for the past year. a year and a half. it's an ambulance called on a daily basis to help our homeless neighbors on the corner of 26th and south vanes. i own a business and i'm an owner of our merchants association and i work home from my business at 2:00, 3:00 in the morning, it's a bar, we have late hours and every

night when he walk home, i have to walk passed no less than a dozen soaks sleeping in the 3 blocks it takes me to get home. there is an emergency happening in my neighborhood. i live there. i own a business there. put a navigation center in my neighborhood. put a safe injection site. put a wet house. we have an emergency in my neighborhood and the neighborhoods across the city. and i'm not going to pretend it's not happening in my neighborhood. help our homeless neighbors, thank you. >> to you know what happened to your neighbor? >> the paramedics were able to get him into ambulance. i didn't see him later in the day. but i'm certain he'll be back soon and again, i would love for, in that neighborhood, to have a better safer place for he and our other homeless neighbors to be other

than laundromats and stand and sit in our driveways and walkways. so help us do that, please. >> thank you. >> the next speaker, i want to say, i have learned so much from this woman and everyday she is just doing amazing work and i just want to thank her because it's really thankful work. >> thank you. so sweet. [applause] >> i'm jennifer executive director on homelessness coalition. we have a deciding whether we have a state of emergency. and i want to ask these questions, does thousands of people living without access to running water or heat constitute an emergency? or does 1 in 25 children in our public

schools not have a descent place to live constitute an emergency. having 1 shelter bed for every 100 homeless person count. dozens dying on the street, is that an emergency. those -- over 20 years, constitute an emergency. does a woman who gets raped solely because she has no door to lock, does that constitute an emergency. does an 83-year-old living in shelter who gets timed out of the shelter and back on the streets or what about a newborn baby or a woman pregnant about to give birth or a develop mental disabled adult, a 16-year-old child. does the rapid deterioration of an individual's health because they're living outdoors, does that constitute an emergency because we would say and i would say that every single time someone becomes homeless or have about to

become homeless, alert bells should be ringing because the consequences are dire so it is indeed an emergency. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> hello supervisors, brian of the housing alliance. i'm a little ill today. so, big problems require bold initiatives and i'm thankful you're putting forward something that is different than the normal increment that we experience that's inadequate for today's crisis. i'll make a couple of different suggestions. we were fortunate to open up jazzy's place. thank you so much. but one of the things that we're recognizing from it is 90 days is not enough time. there's no such thing as getting placed into affordable housing within 90 days. and we need to do a better job of

matching outcomes to these intakes. i know that a lot of placements have been prioritized for the navigation center which is unfair to lbgt people. we created jazzy's place because of the violence that's happening in the other shelter systems against lbgt people. we created this other thing. now they have a structural barrier to get into the affordable housing we're providing and that's not fair. so i'd like to advocate for an lbgt focus navigation center as well that has its own access to permanent housing placement as the outcome. one suggestion is years ago, we were looking at the church on church and market and that's where tommy and i were there, and that's where i introduced saying we can have

an lbgt space here. that's available. at the time the city did not have the resources in making that space up to code, but i think with the $9 billion budget, those times have changed. and that's enough for my time. i have lots more, but let's leave it at that. >> thank you for all you do. next speaker. >> good afternoon, supervisor campos, kim, yee. my name is [inaudible] and right now i'm here as a public citizen, but i have to say that as i standing in that line, i was fearful that being up here was going to put my employment at risk for speaking out on this issue. so i'm saying that almost as a protection. as of 7 months ago, and for the previous months, so that takes me back to september 2015 to november of 2015 i was homeless. that's

really painful. not embarrassing, and not shameful, but painful. the reason i ended up homeless because i was working for the school district and the last incident involving shootings, i had to leave. i thought i could survive on my own, but i didn't. i had to sleep in my car where i was robbed twice with four gunshots ran about 2:30 in the morning. i have to sleep in a tent. i'm here in solidarity of everyone who spoke. everyone who is demanding, everyone who is asking. i just refuse to be silent. refuse to be invisible. as an immigrant, i'm asked to

be silent. no. you have a priority. you have a priority to take care of your [inaudible]. i'm going to say this with humor. san francisco is in danger of becoming san francisco which means without san francisco and without francisca. they become every name. >> can i ask a question. can you tell folks here and members of the public who are watching, what you do for the board of supervisors? >> i was advised not to say that. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> he provides a critical service for our city. thank you. that was beautiful. next speaker. [applause] >> good afternoon, board members. my

name is peter cohen with the housing organization. we have members that provide services and advocate for affordable housing. we spent a lot of time over the last two years talking about affordability crisis. we have talked about it as a broadening crisis, even san francisco so called middle income, households are finding it impossible to find housing. and we debated policy and debated why that's happening. but i'd like to say that for what's a crisis for some folks is an emergency for others who are really at the lowest end of our whole economic spectrum. for our homeless, it is continue emergency. it's not just a crisis. we can talk about a crisis of affordability from a policy standpoint, but when it comes to day-to-day survival, it's an emergency and this is a bold step. i'm sure you're

aware this is happening other cities. i spent time with those from seattle and portland. they have declared a state of emergency. oak land and los angeles is talking about this. we have a national crisis at least a california crisis in our major cities in our homeless population. rattling the cage is an important thing to do. and hopefully all the solutions will happen and you'll get full support from the board and the administration. looking forward, we want to be talking about preventing homeless nts and there's two ways. one is the long and hard and expensive work of providing true housing. that's what our members do. it takes time and money, but that's how you end the homelessness and the second is prevent evictions. we should have a zero displacement policy in san francisco. just like vision zero for

pedestrian and bicycle deaths. zero -- do everything we can to get there. >> thank you mr. cohen. next speaker. >> ace washington. i wasn't planning to speak, but i'm waiting for the commission's meeting. i want to commend you supervisors for looking after the speechless, the voiceless people. i had to speak. i was a victim of homelessness three years. i want to thank kelly for helping me and getting into a shelter. you can't imagine how diminishing that was to me. i have three daughters and they're outside of the city and county. i wanted to give my testimony from being a homeless person. i went from being homeless to the shelter. they treat them people bad at the shelters. i'm not going to get on them. it's hard to get in there and hard to get out. most people would rather live on the

street than go into some of these shelters, but i'm in the sro on 15th. the best ones at the time, but it's slowly going down. my question is, where have all these homeless people come from. there's 6,000 here in the city. have you did a survey where these people come from and why they're come to go the city. the city and county, they have to be getting some federal money to do this. they have to reach out to people. i woke up -- they can't be san franciscans. they are. what's going on here. we got an emergency. no, i'm saying, obama, we got the problems in the city by the bay. obama have been flying in and out. we needs to hear what we've got to say because

we got an emergency problems right here. but i'm with the supervisors. you're doing a wonderful job, but we have a situation. i'm ace and i'm on the case. >> thank you, mr. washington. >> for a state of emergency, [inaudible] to see a problem of homelessness. being homeless and imagine being locked up in hospitals. which can -- [inaudible]. and our space vision programs. they pay big money and national security for our people. we must employ 100% single -- and control crisis resolution of our system that would not miss out anyone in the days ask years of their

difficulties -- of social and personal security. [inaudible]. for homeless people. [inaudible]. tier 3, halfway house, quality house, tier 4, make connection for homeless folks with mental health problem with ssi and medicaid. tier 5, long term affordable temporary housing but hotels and [inaudible]. tier 6, permanent secure home. [inaudible]. we must develop this [inaudible] system. [inaudible] must put full force social security and the solutions should be supported by full funding as number one of

[inaudible]. we should never lose hope. yeah. you're all mighty, super supervisors commissions. >> thank you very much. >> i want to ask one final time if there's a member who hasn't spoken but who would like to speak. this is the opportunity -- seeing none. public comment is close. colleagues, i want to make sure i give you an opportunity to speak and i know supervisor yee has an amendment, and i forgot to acknowledge and i apologize for this, someone who plays an important role in what we do here is our city attorney's office, and they helped in a

very expeditious way to draft this piece of legislation, so i want to thank mr. givener and city attorney and their amazing team for their help. with that, colleagues, this concludes public comment. i'll turn it over to you madam chair. >> why don't we take the motion to amend first and make closing comments. yee. speaker: i'll explain both things. first of all, again, i want to say that -- i want to say that. i want to give this to you. i'm proud to be a coauthor with supervisor campos and supervisor kim and others on this resolution. and i'm going to offering some language for amendment. it's in addition to what we have. and

i'm very happy that supervisor campos is supporting my amendment. so let me read it for the record. this would be to add or to include this language as a new section. the last section, which would be section 4. impact of declaration of city law. so it would read, in adopting this declaration, the board of supervisors does not suspend, waive or limit the requirements of any applicable city law required regulating the process, for selecting and developing sites for public facilities. to be used as an r emergency housing pursuant to the declaration. further, the board does not suspend city law providing for public notification, community outreach, and or public input

as part of that process. now, i'm pretty sure, even about this language, there was no intention in this resolution to skip any of this. but there were enough people that didn't under the intention of this resolution, so by putting this language in there, we're going to be making it clear, and i want to say one more time that we all have to be part of the solution. but the solution needs to be practical, logical, and they've got to make sense to the people that we're trying to serve. so once again, thank you very much and i want to thank all the public that came out to spend the time to share their opinions and stories with us today. so i make that motion. speaker: thank you supervisor yee. there's a motion to amend as articulated and i will second. we'll have a second to that and we can take

that amendment without opposition. >> if i may just clarify for folks around this amendment. and i'm happy to support this amendment. i want to explain what this does relative to what we have been trying to do. this amendment actually is consistent with what we have been saying all along. it clarifies that the legislation that's before us does not override a community input or planning process when it comes to deciding whether a particular site is a good fit for a navigate center or a shelter. the reason why the navigation center has been so success on the 16th initiative because there was a community process before it actually opened. community input is critical to make it successful. what my legislation does and what state law does in a declaration -- to

allow san francisco to suspend rules rnd structural and have a requirement. that's important because that can take a long time. as someone who worked for a long time to open the lbgt shelter, the ability to cut through the red tape on that is really critical. for example, if a building code says that a group housing for a particular site must have one bathroom for four residents and a facility identify as a possible navigation center has one bathroom for every five residents, then we couldn't use the space unless the code requirements were waived through the finding of emergency. so it's a useful tool, but it's not designed nor was it intended to not allow community to have input. that's why i'm happy to support this and thank supervisor yee for the amendment.

>> thank you supervisor campos. any closing comments? >> no i think -- i'm supportive of this resolution and we need to take more actions like this, just really start improving the situation for our homeless individuals. >> thank you supervisor yee. i do want to acknowledge again supervisor campos and your office for your work in bringing this together. i want to acknowledge the comments made from the public. this is always been a state of emergency, and i think that what we're hearing from our residents today is largely in light of the fact that of two things. one, there are less places for our neighbors to be invisible in with growing construction ask residential developments and neighborhoods where there used to not be residents and the growing trend in country. we're seeing a

growing economic divide in terms of where wealth is helped and people and folks that are actually make good money or work 40 hours a week also can't afford to live in a home here in san francisco, and that is a massive, massive tragedy. i recognize many folks that also came to our hearing at budget and finance committee on our navigation center a few weeks ago. thank you for coming back and it's great to you went to visit pier 80 for example, and are offering to pitch in and offer spaces to share so we can solve this problem together. this is something that is going to take not just city government, but our non profit organizations and citizens as well to solve, and i support sus -- support us moving forward. we do have a model that has been shown to work, and we should be able to

accelerate that and scale that throughout our city whether it is our navigation centers, supportive housing, our very successful problems to cut our family homeless waiting list as well. and many of you were involved and engaged in the process to get that done. so we've piloted many innovative ideas on addressing homelessness. we need to invest and scale the solutions so we can get more folks off our streets and safely and securely into housing, but i do want to thank in particular, you know, members of our city family who came out and spoke bravely today on your experience. it's not easy to share having experienced homelessness. and the painfulness of that, and one issue that i'm going to work through is making sure that we have one data system for everyone that lives on our streets or in our shelter

system. i think one of the complaints i hear from folks on our street is how hard our city makes it for folks to access services. going through non profit agencies and having to retell your story and how you landed on the streets and prove you were worthy of services and housing is humiliating and shameful and embarrassing. we have to do better with victims domestic violence. we don't make clients tell their stories over and over again. we should place a system that is client centered in our homeless service systems as well. so i look forward to working with supervisor campos. i don't think any single office can take this on alone. we need to share in making sure our

resources and services are placed throughout our city and ensure as supervisor yee said, make sure we have a community process. most neighborhoods would accept if they understood what the services were and how they were going to be applied and distributed. and i think most people want to make sure that we're getting folks off our streets because no one wants to see what we're seeing today. so, i believe i'm going to make a motion to move this forward with positive recommendation to the full board. supervisor campos, closing comments. >> thank you madam chair and thank you for that motion. i want to thank the people who came out and what was incredible about the turn out was not only so many people, it was a full house here, but also people from different walks of life. from different social economic parts of the city. the diversity was quite incredible and it points to the

fact that san franciscans from all walks of life recognize we need to do something. let me say this clearly, the declaration of emergency even with the powers doesn't address the issue. it has to be followed by action, and that's why i'm proud that not just the ordinance was introduced on a state of emergency, but that we also introduced on tuesday this week, an ordinance that creates and directs the opening of six navigation centers and it's not just the navigation centers, but tying the navigation centers to permanent housing and services. and that's only part of the equation. my hope is that we have an opportunity through this declaration of emergency to go beyond navigation centers and talk about other things that need to happen including reforming the shelter system, including

making sure that we are smart in how we address this issue because what we know from other jurisdictions like los angeles is like for every person that we put in supportive housing, that 600 plus thousand dollars, we're saving money. if we fail to do that, we're going to talk about spending thousands of dollars on those individuals. not only does that not make sense from a financial standpoint, but in terms of the morality, the ethics, the humanity of that doesn't make sense also. i believe that if any city can get this right, it is san francisco, and you know what, we're going to have to try new things. and when we try new things that work, we should continue to replicate them and when we try new things that don't work, we have to try on to trying new things. i

look forward to working with everyone and looking forward to working with the mayor and i look forward to the board playing more of a role in all this and i want to say to my colleagues who have signed on as cosponsors to this, it means a great deal to me to have supervisor kim, to have supervisor avalos, supervisor mar, supervisor yee, president breed, supervisor peskin and supervisor cohen. i board the entire board of supervisors can join mayor lee so we can collectively as city government can do right by the city and county of san francisco. thank you very much. [applause] >> so at this time, we have a motion to move forward with positive recommendation and can we do that without opposition. we can do that without opposition. thank you to the members for speaking. madam

clerk, any other announcements. speaker: no further business. >> meeting is adjourned. you. >> well to the epic center are you ready for the next earthquake did you know if you're a renter you can get earthquake shushes we'll take to the earthquake authorities hi welcome to another episode

the state of california passed a law that requires any company that writes the policies to over earthquake insurance the homeowners are not required by commissioner cranshaw can bye there was so much loss they were going to stop writing the insurance policies for earthquakes they wanted to stop a serious insurance policy. >> we're talking about the homeownership's buying the earthquake shiners but 70 percent are renters what's my opposite. >> the option for renter the earthquake be insurance company is affordable i think people don't realize just exactly what it covers it covers damaged property but loss of use if you have to be under a building they have a quarter main that was broken as well as emergency repair if interests glass breaks in the carpet you need to be in

i was just driving around minding my own business... when it came out of nowhere. suddenly, there were lights all around me. i'm like, "they're coming for me!" yeah, it was crazy. i just never thought they'd find me. not out here. it doesn't matter where you drive. if you don't buckle up, you will get caught. cops are cracking down all across the country. click it or ticket. (music) >> herb theatre,open rehearsal. listen to the rehearsal. i think it is fun for them, they see our work process, our discussions, the decisions we make.

it is good for us. we kind of behavior little bit when we have people in the audience. msk (music) >> we are rehearsing for our most expensive tour; plus two concerts here. we are proud that the growth of the orchestra, and how it is expanded and it is being accepted. my ambition when i came on as music director here -- it was evident we needed absolutely excellent work. also evident to me that i thought everyone should know that. this was my purpose. and after we opened, which was a spectacular opening concert about five weeks after that the economy completely crashed.

my plan -- and i'm absolutely dogmatic about my plans --were delayed slightly. i would say that in this very difficult timefor the arts and everyone, especially the arts, it's phenomenal how new century has grown where many unfortunate organizations have stopped. during this period we got ourselves on national radio presence; we started touring, releasing cds, a dvd. we continue to tour. reputation grows and grows and grows and it has never stopped going forward. msk(music) >> the bay area knows the orchestra.

you maybe take things for granted a little bit. that is simply not the case will go on the road. the audiences go crazy. they don't see vitality like this on stage. we are capable of conveying joy when we play. msk(music) >> any performance that we do, that a program, that will be something on the program that you haven't heard before. string orchestra repertoire is pretty small. i used to be boxed into small repertoire. i kept constantly looking for new repertoire and commissioning new arrangements. if you look at the first of the program you have very early, young vibrant mendelson; fabulous opener and then you

have this fabulous concerto written for us in the orchestra. is our gift. msk(music) >> and then you have strauss, extraordinary piece. the most challenging of all. string orchestra work. 23 solo instrument, no violin section, now viola section; everybody is responsible for their part in this piece. the challenge is something that i felt not only that we could do , absolutely could do, but i wanted to show off.

i can't tell you how aware i am of the audience. not only what i hear but their vibes, so strong. i have been doing this for a long time. i kind of make them feel what i want them to feel. there is nobody in that audience or anywhere that is not going to know that particular song by the fourth note. and that is our encore on tour. by the way. i am proud to play it, we are from san francisco. we are going to play that piece no matter where we are.
