harrier, who last their lives in recent years crossing market street live in the delays. there is no other way to continue our progress in this new year. the lives of our friends, our families, and our neighbors hang in the balance, and there is not a moment to waste. thank you. >> thank you, cathy and brian. as the chief said, ultimately, this is not about numbers, it's about people. so finally, and i would say most importantly, we're very honored to have alvin lester here who's one of the founding members of the san francisco bay area families for safe streets, because i think the voice of those who have lost a loved one is one of the most effective and compelling
6:01 pm
actuals thactual tools that we have, so please welcome welcome -- join me in welcoming and thank you for coming, alvin lester. >> good morning, everyone. my story is simple, but it 's necessary. i'll just get right to it. my name is alvin lester, the father of armand lester. he was struck and killed in a driver in the bay neighborhood in the city. i'm here today to support safer streets so that no one else has to lose their life and suffer the pain i have from terrific violence. i'm one of the cofounders of san francisco bay areas for safe streets, an organization that consists of volunteers that have lost loved one. we are fighting to change the culture of unsafe driving habits. we have endorsed vision zero
6:02 pm
campaign to put an end to san francisco traffic deaths and serious injury by 2024. using education, engineering, and law enforcement, it is critical that our city officials focus on the proven tools which will help reach the no death-no injury-no serious injury goal by 2024. join with us as we push forward together to make san francisco a safe place to walk, ride, drive. and to add to that, i -- i'm here for -- to honor my son. he was a wonderful -- he was my only son, and as a father, you put a lot of time and effort in raising your kids and teaching them the correct things to do. and doing so, i had great expectations that his life would turn out to be satisfying, not only to me, but his self.
6:03 pm
so we fight today to may change to san francisco. i myself am also a native san franciscan, and i've seen the changeover the past 20 years dealing with the traffic on our streets. we need to take our streets back. we need to help people change the negative behaviors that have been built up over the years, and we need to do it today. no parent, no family members should have to go through the pain of burying their son, of burying their child, of burying their mothers, because of preventible traffic collisions. so let's fight the good fight. let's do what we can do. we have proven tools that can help people drivesive in our cities. paragraph 3r56 if you drive a motor vehicle, think about it. think about the person that's standing on the corner. think about how fast you're
6:04 pm
driving. think about that stop sign you're coming to. just think, and by doing so, i guarantee you'll help someone live another day. i guarantee that. i just want to thank everybody for being here. i want to thank everyone here who has a vested interest in saving lives. we all deserve to have safe streets. we shouldn't have to figure out which street to take this day or which street to take tomorrow. your life depends on it, believe me. you don't want to hear that phone ring and then have that news that will rip your heart in two. it's tough. every day of the week, i think about my son. he would have been 25 in may of this year. and so he was in school, he was working. he had a promising future. however, the individual who took his life didn't care nothing about that. we have to care for those who are living. we have to care to make sure
6:05 pm
that crossing a street doesn't cost you your life or end up in a hospital with life-threatening injuries. we have to do it. so i'm here to bring honor to those who have lost their lives, to help all these individuals here, to make all these 2014 numbers come to fruition, and i'm going to thank everybody. thank you. >> well, i can't say it any better than that. we are certainly committed within the government to do more and better and faster, but as alvin and the chief and the supervisor said, we need everyone to pay attention, to slow down as they're getting around the city. it's going to take all of us to get to vision zero, but it is achievable, so thanks, san francisco, and thanks, everybody, for coming today.
6:06 pm
6:07 pm
i want to thank the office, our incredible leader here who made the event possible. and the partners at jon stewart company. i know i see kathryn back there, the -- thank you, john, for all of your leadership. and al pplause) and the community of infrastructure and investment, nadia, you are somewhere here. thank you so much for the investment in the amazing development and the mayor's office of housing and community development. thank you for coming here. so without further adue, we want to start the celebration this ribbon cutting, this amazing moment, we have our supervisor malia cohen and mayor london breed here. first, i want to bring up our
6:08 pm
director to kick us off. (applause) >> thank you very much for being here this morning. this is a really, really important time for me and for all of us. as a child growing up here in hunters point, i actually played on this very spot where we're standing. which is a surprise, that our childcare center is now here. we lived right there in the building right there in the place right here we were playing as children, my sister and i, who is the co-founder and there was a lot of housing in this area here. when we opened up the center and my program director tracy and i was walking through and i was telling the story, she said gladys it's here, the childcare center. and i was very moved but it couldn't be done without all of you helping and supporting us.
6:09 pm
i'm not going to be up here long but i really want to quote a saying by myriam wright elder man. children must have at least one person who believes in them, it could be a counsellor, a teacher, a preacher, a friend, it could be you. you never know when a little love, a little support will plant a special seed of hope. one of the things that we work very, very hard to do at frandelja that has now been open 17 years, is plant the succeed of success to ensure that all children have an opportunity to succeed in life, as well as their parents. again, i thank mayor london breed and supervisor malia cohen for being here this morning. thank you so very much. (applause)
6:10 pm
we will now hear from our mayor. >> thank you everyone and good morning. it's so excited to be here today. i grew up in the western edition community in public housing there and we were fortunate, the childcare facility i went to as a kid was just right across the street. mary lee would pick me up while my grandmother was working and we had a community, we had a lot of support. we would walk to school together, we grew up together and that's what being a community is about, making sure that our children have these incredible opportunities to start off in childcare to grow and thrive in our communities. i want to take a moment to acknowledge our mayor, mayor ed lee who constantly was an
6:11 pm
advocate for making sure we were fulfilling the old promises that we promised decades ago to the residents here in the bayview hunter's point community. this is a promise fulfilled today, it's an opportunity for our young people to grow and thrive. this is an opportunity to make sure that every single child here succeeds and going to preschool is just really the first opportunity any kid gets to grow and learn and thrive. and so i'm excited to be here, 70 slots. 70 slots. childcare -- (applause) childcare just like healthcare should be a right, not a privilege. every child in our city deserves this incredible opportunity and thank each and every one of you for being a part of this wonderful event, actually this is really cool, this floor is
6:12 pm
really soft and i'm kind of melting in it. we didn't have that, we had to play on the concrete. these kids are lucky, they have toys and new equipment and great stuff to play with. this is absolutely incredible and i'm so grateful to be here and i'm grateful for the amazing leadership of supervisor cohen who represents this district. she's a hard worker and cares about the community and steadfast, constantly pushing to make sure we're headed in the right direction and i think about ed lee again today, often times supervisor cohen and i would be the main persons going into his office talking about our districts and what we want and fussing a bit about what we want. and the mayor would just tell us, look, i'm going to take care of it, and he did take care of it. he took care of it and malia cohen has been a fierce advocate for making sure the community is taken care of. ladies and gentlemen, supervisor
6:13 pm
cohen. (applause) >> thank you. good morning ladies and gentlemen. so today really is a celebration no doubt. but this is truly a combination of all the work that started almost three years ago, frandelja has had a fantastic story that is rooted here in our community, started at gilman at true hope with the vision of a few community members that recognized there was a gap in service right here in the southeast. people should be able to walk their kids to school or drive a few minutes to drop their kids off. so that's when the leadership of frandelja got together. now, years passed and they came to me about three years ago and said we're in jeopardy of losing this, we need to move and find a site. i don't know if you remember that conversation, it was difficult to have, but it's true, ed lee was at the table and neighborhood and campaiommu
6:14 pm
partners as well as the developers of this project that assisted us in moving from one location to another so we don't lose any services. but let's be clear, we still need more quality early education opportunities here in our neighborhood just as we see across the city. this is a fantastic day we have come to celebrate this resource we're pouring into our community and the childcare facility that will make it a little bit, just a little bit easier for moms and dads to go to work, knowing that their child has a safe place, not only are they playing, but they're also learning. i think it's property to highlight they're learning basic fundamental principles that will put them on the pathway of being successful for education and then ultimately a career opportunity and who knows run for supervisor or mayor. we have a good track record
6:15 pm
right here. (applause) you're looking at two products of the public school system before you, good things do come out of san francisco and working class communities and i think that's a very important message we need to speak out over our little ones. so i'm proud to stand with the women that founded the high quality learning center and you know what's really beautiful is that it started with a vision and tenacity of community members that saw the need and they just took action. they weren't elected officials, they weren't appointed to anything, they felt the urgency and the call to action. they felt that urgency of now. and they stepped up. i want to give my humble gratitude to sandra and gladys for their leadership. there's many organizations here that help us with the funding of
6:16 pm
such an endeavor. so we as a city are proud to be part of working together to make sure this facility and others are successful. i want to say congratulations, it's a big victory for all of us here and i hope we can take a few moments in the early parts of 2018 to recognize this and celebrate. congratulations everyone. (applause) >> thank you supervisor cohen. madam mayor breed. i'm looking over to gladys, i believe we have some special guests, i see some amazing little ones over there, a special treat for the mayor here. but first, i think i'm to bring up miss ariana smith, miss smith is a parent of a child enrolled at frandelja. welcome. >> good morning. >> come on mama smith.
6:17 pm
don't be nervous. >> i'm not really a speaker but i want to say thank you to frandelja for being accessible to me as a single working parent and you guys have been so helpful making my child feel she's at home. it's been very helpful to me. i thank you for everything. thank you. (applause) >> miss gladys would you like to introduce the special performance or ribbon cutting first? special performance first. as you come up, we have a few elected officials here, our school board president. thank you for coming. miss gladys. >> they are very excited, maybe a little nervous, so if you know the songs, i would like for you to help them along.

6:23 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
6:24 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,
6:25 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
6:26 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, whether it's listening to it or
6:27 pm
6:28 pm

6:45 pm
good afternoon. i would like to welcome acting mayor breed to the chamber, now time for question time. thank you. good afternoon, everyone. i appreciate the opportunity to host my first question time as acting mayor. the city attorney has determined that question time must continue while i serve as the acting mayor. the last time we were together in the chambers we were all reeling from the terrible news we had heard that morning that our mayor, mayor ed lee, had passed. i don't think any of us truly processed the loss of the mayor that day. emotions were still too raw. every day since then i have been inspired by the strength and the compassion of this incredible city, and now that we have, we had a month to reflect, i want to talk about how we can continue to honor his work and how we can continue to move the city forward and creatively tackle the challenges our city
6:46 pm
is still facing. one area where the mayor and i shared a passion was our commitment to addressing issues around homelessness. i am convinced that no one should have to sleep outside in our city anywhere and especially not in a tent. shivering in the cold or wet from the rain. we are one of the greatest cities in the world during an incredible economic boom but we still have individuals on our door steps battling substance abuse, battling mental illness and homelessness. one of his last major announcements before the mayor left us was that he pledged to get 1,000 people off the streets this winter and i am committed to following through on that promise. this is why i work with the department of homelessness and supportive housing to increase capacity at our shelters this winter, providing additional 75 beds for people to sleep each
6:47 pm
night. this is why i move forward with opening the auburn hotel which has provided another 70 permanent affordable homes for our military veterans and this is why one of my first visits was to hummingbird place, san francisco's first navigation center, dedicated to helping residents dealing with behavioral and mental health challenges. i will continue to support initiatives and provide alternatives to living on our streets because we cannot allow individuals to stay in unsafe and inhumane conditions intent encampments. i have walked the streets of our city and witnessed these conditions firsthand and had conversations with the individuals who are experiencing homelessness. when i first, when i visited show place square with our city agencies last month, i saw the
6:48 pm
critical work of moving our residents out of the tents and into stable situations, and i'm really grateful to the hot team and our other city departments who provide medical treatment on demand and also we were able to move several individuals into navigation centers as well as our shelter system. i also saw how it takes an individual approach each and every person has a different experience with a different need, and i believe in a san francisco that takes care of all of its residents. taking care of all of our residents also means creating safe and affordable opportunities for families and residents such as new housing. we broke ground on 108 units of affordable housing at hayes valley i'm really proud of and worked so hard of. i introduced legislation to purchase the mcdonald site to build 100% affordable housing, and taking care of our residents, of course, means
6:49 pm
taking care of needs with early childhood education as well. the kind of support that is provided in centers such as the new child care facility and supervisor cohen's district we opened last week, 70 new slots for children to have a safe place to learn, to grow and to thrive. by offering these services to all of our communities, including our public housing residents, we can help eliminate the achievement gap that begins in early childhood education. from education to homelessness to housing to harm reduction, i will continue to pursue policies that reduce homelessness and make san francisco a safe and resilient city for everyone. thank you for your time. >> thank you very much. this suspends and concludes our mayor's question time. thank you.
6:50 pm
