1:00 pm
um -- so what part of the budget is going towards renovating the office space versus the supportive services space or the access space. >> a third of the funds are being used to support the clients serving parts of the building which is not just the access point it's also we have homeward bound staff on site as well as other staff who directly serve clients getting them access and the first will be more client facing. >> i'm trying to get a handle and wrap myself around this concept that is this is an emergency. mainly because in my mind, the original version of this was to build out as office space so what makes this an emergency
1:01 pm
again? >> i believe homelessness in san francisco in its self emergency with 7500 people on any given night 20,000 people year experience homelessness and as we drive to reduce those numbers and get people access to services and they're in their homelessness we need to have access points in this city so that we can better use and expand our existing programs so having our homeward bound staff on site with access to showers for people who need to get on the bus and make it more efficient and make it possible for us to serve even more people and that particular program and having access points coordinated entry councillors on site are going to speed up people's access to permanent supporter but just importantly it's going to let people know who are not qualified for permanent supportive housing what services are available to them so we can
1:02 pm
keep people from waiting on our streets hoping they'll get in to housing and rapid rehousing and other programs to get people off of our streets and back indoors. >> so, you identify or name two access points locations are you saying right now those two locations have people lined up around the block or something needed to get in. what is your emergency here? >> those two sites are serving families and they're not serving the single adult population we have not yet opened up access points for single adults. >> ok. >> um, any questions? >> i just wanted to know, i know you talked about this and your community out reach program was
1:03 pm
for this and it came up again and last summer and spring i just wanted to hear what process you went through in terms of moving forward on your revised plan. >> i'm going to ask by my colleague emily cohen who managed this process to speak to this. >> great. thank you. >> thank you supervisors emily cohen with homelessness and supportive housing and we believed this community out reach programs and we held two large community meetings with tender loin stakeholders with residents and local businesses and service providers in the neighborhood and we heard really mixed input about how what people saw and what they wanted and we heard some concerns about the passage on the sidewalk and front if you spent time at turke and hide that corner needs attention and folks were very concerned about what was happening on that block and we
1:04 pm
engage in these conversations with the community we convened a working group of enabled leaders and we did a lot of talking about the concerns and the concerns that surfaced for the neighborhood that we heard very clearly they did not want this site to be 24/7 and they did not want people coming in from ousted tenderloin or being brought in from outside the tenderloin use services so we took that to heart and scaled back what we planned for that and we know that any head quarters for the department of homelessness needs to be accessible to folks experiencing homelessness but we wanted to listen and be respectful of the community and scale back the resource center from there we continue to hold meet meetings and i ran ten meetings throughout the community alliance for a better tenderloin and met with stakeholders the mayor led a meeting with
1:05 pm
business leaders in the community and we discussed this framework and this plan and i think that this -- what we landed on here comes through with a nice compromise we had some folks calling for a big resource center at 440 and some folks calling for no client services at 440 and we struck a great ball and we found support throughout the neighborhood and activating the site providing security and a place for people to come in and not a magnet bringing people in and not having the people bringing from all over the city and that was one of the biggest concerns that we heard and we wanted to be really responsive and a good neighbor and we're interested in working with the block the other business owners and other providers on the block to activate that space and we look forward to being part of the neighborhood. >> thank you. >> yeah. >> in regards to -- i'm just curious emily, in regards to
1:06 pm
those two large community meetings i mean, departments come in here all the time saying we had this large community meeting with five people and i am just curious how many people were in attendance total for the two? >> i had 150 sign-ins from those meetings and they weren't even 75/75 but it was 150 folks total came to both of those meetings. >> that constitutes large. >> it's not large to me. >> every department has the defense. >> any other questions? ok. if i could just add to that, you know, the issue that has come up and i have received e-mails about this today is that there were some folks who felt like we ignored their concerns about having showers and laundry facilities on site and i want to be clear we didn't ignore anybody's concerns and we didn't grow with everybody's concerns so we understand, we made a proposal and it was not accepted
1:07 pm
by the community and we scaled it back to turn it in to something else after listening to folks but where we landed on this it's noting going to be a resource center and it will be a welcoming department and meet the needs of our clients who come in as someone coming in getting a bus home or to get and go to a housing interview we need to have some very basic services available to those folks including showers and building and it's to serve one or two people to do that so we heard the community and some people want this to be lots of showers and laundry and places to sit for hundreds of people and some as emily said didn't want, we heard everybody's concerns and we did our best to balance those concerns with the needs of the department and most importantly with the needs of people who are experiencing homelessness. >> let me have -- about the office space for a second here.
1:08 pm
i guess again, i thought it was going to be office space and then it would accommodate your staff it seems like we're cutting it in half using second floor for office space. >> first and second floor. >> ok, primarily second floor. >> and then is that going to come and accommodate your exist ing staff plus grove. >> it will accommodate, yes t. will at this time it will not accommodate all of our staff we had originally presented was you know two 440 turk and ninth street it would have accommodated our staff and growth and it will accommodate our staff all of our staff and plus some growth but not staff not civil service staff who are currently working with the hot team and we're still arguing to need to find another location in order to place the hot team and we looked at possibly doing that
1:09 pm
on the first floor of 440 but it's not large enough to make that possible and to be able to at least have a welcome welcoming lobby for those who are going to come in and look for services. >> how many would this accommodate? >> where are you now? >> how many staff do we have? >> where are we locked? >> so we're currently located at 50 ivy street facility on mission street at 101 grove street at 1360 mission street and 1650 mission street. >> and you will vacating these places? >> yes. >> all except for 50 i.v. so when we're able to make the move we will be in 50 i.v. and then at 440 turks so we'll be in two locations. >> that's good to know. >> thank you. >> thank you. >> any public comments on this item come on up you have two
1:10 pm
minutes. >> hi. >> my name is and i work for the housing clinic we oversee three programs i oversee three programs which is a thorough residents in the tender loin and latino families and code enforcement and we came to know about this going back on history threw a that's what the department was proposing and there was a lot of community as to there was no community in the process it would not fly in any other neighborhood this way so there was processes but i have to disagree with the department that the final plans the concrete final plans were not put out to the community and i actually gained a lot more information coming to this meeting i would not have known about this meeting if the department wouldn't have e-mailed me and my supervisor about coming to this meeting and
1:11 pm
i'm not sure to be honest with you the community's little frustrated about the transparency as to what real re is going on we would like to the last communication that we have was october 8th i think or eighth where we got an e-mail from emily basically saying that we are scaling back 80% of the space for office and 20% would be for clients services and we're still filling out the client services and i know about the working group that would come out with a survey to figure out gnaw didn't happen so i'm asking for continuance because i think the community needs to hear about what was presented today and i hear that from the laundry facilities will be for the program but it's not what was told to me when i asked so it would be that program and summary the program did not sure yet about difference services so i think what i would appreciate
1:12 pm
is this particular information was held out to the community before coming here so i'm asking for continuance, thank you. >> thank you, very much. >> good afternoon supervisors, jim, chamber of commerce we strongly support this resolution and declaration of emergency to move this project along and every city department that deals with a constituency has to have a facility which that constituency can access that and that's what we're talking about here there's a new department consolidated moving 100 staffers in to a location we need this access and we need drop-in centers and other access points for other populations and this department serves and this is one small step towards putting this department together giving some access to its population that seeks its services at that location and strongly urge you to approve this and move it on tomorrow to the full board, thank you.
1:13 pm
>> hello i'm kelly cutler with the coalition on homelessness and we're located right next door and we are in support of this and we would like to see more access to other services because folks needed a shower and a place to sit down and also to connect 20 services and i did attend the multiple community meetings, a lot of community meetings there and honestly just like every community meeting you have in each of your districts and every district all around, there's always push back. that's just something that we're constantly dealing with. but there's a huge need in our community and in the tenderloin in that area. my concern is around what is going on with policing around there but.
1:14 pm
>> any other public comments on this item. see none. any comments. supervisor safai. >> thank you, chair. i just want to say it sounds like there's almost unanimous support for this but there's still confusion as to exactly how the 20% of the building that's going to be used as showers, laundry, i heard the presentation today about outward homeward bound program that makes sense to me it sounds like you've heard consistently that some people don't want it as a drop-in center and some people want it as expanded services but i guess, i would feel more comfortable support north item today if there was someway that we could then have your agency come back and give us a clear detailed plan maybe with some additional conversations on the communities so there's more support or there's more input
1:15 pm
and there might not be union nam tee on the issue but it sounds like the plan is not still 100% concrete and i am very happy having started my career in san francisco that you will have your office there at that location and i think it's a great location to have office space it will do wonders to bring more bodies and interested parties to that area and i spent almost more than half of my career in san francisco almost 20 years eight plus more than half of my career at that corner at the corner of turke and hide within one block so i know it better than any other block in san francisco other than the one that i live on personally and so i think that it's great um be located there and i would appreciate the opportunity for your department to come back with a very detailed plan exactly how that space is going to be used and the homeward bound program sounds like a great start but sounds like there's confusion of how it will be utilized.
1:16 pm
that would be my only comment. >> thank you. i am not sure if this general consensus yet on this and i'm not sure exactly about what the plan is and i appreciate that you've had community out reach and what is really strange about this hearing today is for all the people that are so passionate i don't see anybody here that is almost telling me something in fact this was supposedly an emergency meeting to talk about emergency items for emergency issues so there was just wondering how broadly this is put out to the public. i'm uncomfortable and i'm willing to do a continuance on
1:17 pm
this and which may then delay it a week or two or actually it doesn't matter it would be delayed until next year. i'm willing -- i haven't heard, this happened so quickly as you know this was like it was called for emergency on friday afternoon and i'd like to reared than continue tractor-trailer item i'd like to send it out of committee with no recommendation so we can move forward and as of tomorrow we can look at for the rest of the colleagues to weigh in on this and maybe i would feel more comfortable giving 24 hours to give feedback from the
1:18 pm
community and stay her motion. >> i move to send this to the full board without recommendation. >> as committee report. >> yes for tomorrow. >> ok. >> motion passes. thank you. mad amount clerk anything else. >> clerk: nothing further. >> meeting adjourned.
1:19 pm
>> manufacturing in cities creates this perfect platform for people to earn livelihoods and for people to create more economic prosperity. i'm kate sosa. i'm cofounder and ceo of sf made. sf made is a public private partnership in the city of san francisco to help manufacturers start, grow, and stay right here in san francisco. sf made really provides
1:20 pm
wraparound resources for manufacturers that sets us apart from other small business support organizations who provide more generalized support. everything we do has really been developed over time by listening and thinking about what manufacturer needs grow. for example, it would be traditional things like helping them find capital, provide assistance loans, help to provide small business owners with education. we have had some great experience doing what you might call pop ups or temporary selling events, and maybe the most recent example was one that we did as part of sf made week in partnership with the city seas partnership with small business, creating a 100 company selling day right here at city hall, in partnership with mayor lee and the board of
1:21 pm
supervisors, and it was just a wonderful opportunity for many of our smaller manufacturers who may be one or two-person shop, and who don't have the wherewithal to have their own dedicated retail store to show their products and it comes back to how do we help companies set more money into arthur businesses and develop more customers and their relationships, so that they can continue to grow and continue to stay here in san francisco. i'm amy kascel, and i'm the owner of amy kaschel san francisco. we started our line with wedding gowns, and about a year ago, we launched a ready to wear collection. san francisco's a great place to do business in terms of clientele. we have wonderful brides from all walks of life
1:22 pm
and doing really interesting things: architects, doctors, lawyers, teachers, artists, other like minded entrepreneurs, so really fantastic women to work with. i think it's important for them to know where their clothes are made and how they're made. >> my name is jefferson mccarly, and i'm the general manager of the mission bicycle company. we sell bikes made here for people that ride here. essentially, we sell city bikes made for riding in urban environments. our core business really is to build bikes specifically for each individual. we care a lot about craftsmanship, we care a lot about quality, we care about good design, and people like that. when people come in, we spend a lot of time going to the design wall, and we can talk about
1:23 pm
handle bars, we can see the riding position, and we take notes all over the wall. it's a pretty fun shopping experience. paragraph. >> for me as a designer, i love the control. i can see what's going on, talk to my cutter, my pattern maker, looking at the designs. going through the suing room, i'm looking at it, everyone on the team is kind of getting involved, is this what that drape look? is this what she's expecting, maybe if we've made a customization to a dress, which we can do because we're making everything here locally. over the last few years, we've been more technical. it's a great place to be, but you know, you have to concentrate and focus on where things are
1:24 pm
going and what the right decisions are as a small business owner. >> sometimes it's appropriate to bring in an expert to offer suggestions and guidance in coaching and counseling, and other times, we just need to talk to each other. we need to talk to other manufacturers that are facing similar problems, other people that are in the trenches, just like us, so that i can share with them a solution that we came up with to manage our inventory, and they can share with me an idea that they had about how to overcome another problem. >> moving forward, where we see ourselves down the road, maybe five and ten years, is really looking at a business from a little bit more of a ready to wear perspective and making things that are really thoughtful and mindful, mindful of the end user, how they're going to use it, whether it's the end piece or a he hwedding
1:25 pm
gown, are they going to use it again, and incorporating that into the end collection, and so that's the direction i hear at this point. >> the reason we are so enamored with the work we do is we really do see it as a platform for changing and making the city something that it has always been and making sure that we're sharing the opportunities that we've been blessed with economically and socially as possible,
1:26 pm
>> i'm rebecca and i'm a violinist and violin teacher. i was born here in san francisco to a family of cellists, professional cellists, so i grew up surrounded by a bunch of musical rehearsals an lessons. all types of activities happened in my house. i began playing piano when i was 4. i really enjoyed musical activities in general. so when i was 10, i began studying violin in san francisco. and from there, i pretty much never stopped and went on to study in college as well. that's the only thing i've ever known is to have music playing all the time, whether it is someone actually playing next to you or someone listening to a
1:27 pm
recording. i think that i actually originally wanted to play flute and we didn't have a flute. it's always been a way of life. i didn't know that it could be any other way. >> could you give me an e over here. great. when you teach and you're seeing a student who has a problem, you have to think on your feet to solve that problem. and that same kind of of thinking that you do to fix it applies to your own practice as well. so if i'm teaching a student and they are having a hard time getting a certain note, they can't find the right note. and i have to think of a digestible way to explain it to them. ee, d, d, e. >> yes. then, when i go on to do my own practice for a performance,
1:28 pm
those words are echoing back in my head. okay. why am i missing this? i just told somebody that they needed to do this. maybe i should try the same thing. i feel a lot of pressure when i'm teaching young kids. you might think that there is less pressure if they are going on to study music or in college that it is more relaxing. i actually find that the opposite is true. if i know i'm sending a high school student to some great music program, they're going to get so much more instruction. what i have told them is only the beginning. if i am teaching a student who i know is going to completely change gears when they go to college and they never will pick up a violin again there is so much that i need to tell them. in plain violin, it is so difficult. there is so much more information to give. every day i think, oh, my gosh. i haven't gotten to this technique or we haven't studies
1:29 pm
they meese and they have so much more to do. we only have 45 minutes a week. i have taught a few students in some capacity who has gone on to study music. that feels anaysing. >> it is incredible to watch how they grow. somebody can make amazing project from you know, age 15 to 17 if they put their mind to it. >> i think i have 18 students now. these more than i've had in the past. i'm hoping to build up more of a studio. there will be a pee ono, lots of bookshelves and lots of great music. the students will come to my house and take their lessons there. my schedule changes a lot on a day-to-day basis and that kind of keeps it exciting. think that music is just my favorite thing that there is,
1:30 pm
whether it's listening to it or playing it or teaching it. all that really matters to me is that i'm surrounded by the sounds, so i'm going top keep doing what i'm doing to keep my life in that direction. go.
1:31 pm

1:37 pm
utilities the service spas we decided to work with the small businesses as their role within the community and bringing more fresh produce produce cerebrothe neighborhood their compassionate about creating a healthy environment when we get into the work they rise up to leadership. >> the different stores and assessment and trying to get them to understand the value of having healthy foods at a reasonable price you can offer people fruits and vegetables and healthy produce they can't afford it not going to be able to allow it so that's why i want to get involved and we just make sure that there are alternatives to people can come into a store and not just see cookies and candies and potting chips and that kind
1:38 pm
of thing hi, i'm cindy the director of the a preif you believe program it is so important about healthy retail in the low income community is how it brings that health and hope to the communities i worked in the tenderloin for 20 years the difference you walk out the door and there is a bright new list of fresh fruits and vegetables some place you know is safe and welcoming it makes. >> huge difference to the whole environment of the community what so important about retail environments in those neighborhoods it that sense of dignity and community safe way. >> this is why it is important for the neighborhood we have

1:40 pm
many different ways the most important piece to me when we start seeing the business owners engagement and their participation in the program but how proud to speak that is the most moving piece of this program yes economic and social benefits and so forth but the personal pride business owners talk about in the program is interesting and regarding starting to understand how they're part of the larger fabric of the community and this is just not the corner store they have influence over their community. >> it is an owner of this in the department of interior i see
1:41 pm
