>> supervisor kim: after conferring with the city attorney, i will stick with my original motion, which is to move forward item two as amended to the full board and make a motion to duplicate the file where i do amendments on the nsf and request the city attorney to eliminate city-wide minimum parking requirements and the city attorney will let us know if this requires a full referral to planning, but that is my motion. >> thank you very much. supervisor safai is now not here, so a motion to excuse him from this vote, so the item will be duplicated and only the four amendments move forward at this point. do we need to take another roll

6:03 am
>> in november of 2016, california voters passed proposition 64. the adult use of marijuana act. san franciscans overwhelmingly approved it by nearly 75%. and the law went into effect in january of 2018. [♪] >> under california's new law, adults age 21 and over can legally possess up to 1 ounce of
6:04 am
cannabis and grow up to six plants at home. adults in california can legally give up to 1 ounce to other adults. >> in the state of california, we passed a law that said adult consumption is legal. if you are an adult and in possession of certain amounts, you will no longer be tried. you will not be arrested or prosecuted for that. that is changing the landscape dramatically. [♪] >> to legalization of cannabis could bring tremendous economic and social benefits to cities like san francisco. >> this industry is projected to reach $22 billion by the year 2020. and that is just a few years away. >> it can be a huge legal industry in california. i think very shortly, the actual growing of marijuana may become the biggest cash crop in the state and so you want that to be a legal tax paying cash crop,
6:05 am
all the way down the line to a sales tax on the retail level. >> the california medical industry is a 3 billion-dollar industry last year. anticipating that multiplier as 20, 30, 50 times in the consumer marketplace once adult use is really in place, you could go ahead and apply that multiplier to revenue. it will be huge. >> when that underground economy becomes part of the regular tax paying employment economy of the bay area, it not only has a direct impact, that money has a ripple impact through the economy as well. >> it is not just about retail. it is not just about the sensor. is about manufacturing pick a lot of innovative manufacturing is happening here in san francisco in addition to other parts of the state as well as the cultivation. we should be encouraging that.
6:06 am
>> there is a vast array of jobs that are going to be available in the newly regulated cannabis industry. you can start at the top tier which a scientist working in testing labs. scientists working at extraction companies. and you work towards agricultural jobs. you have ones that will require less education and you look towards cannabis retail and see traditional retail jobs and you see general management jobs. those things that are similar to working at a bar restaurant or working at a retail store. >> we are offering, essentially, high paid manufacturing jobs. typical starting wage of 18-$20 an hour, almost no barrier to entry, you do not need an education. >> that means that people who do not have college educations, working-class people, will have an opportunity to have a job at cultivating cannabis plants. there's a whole wide array of job opportunities from the seedling to the sale of the cannabis. [♪]
6:07 am
>> last year, they said 26 million people came to san francisco. >> the tourism industry continues to be very robust here and the city and county of san francisco is about a billion-dollar industry. >> if we use a conservative cannabis user adoption rate to 15% that means 4 million tourists want that means 4 million tourists want to purchase cannabis. and we need to be ready for th them. >> in 2015, as adult use legalization efforts gained momentum in california, the supervisors created the san francisco cannabis state legalization task force. this task force offered to research and advice to the supervisors, the mayor and other city departments. >> we knew that adult use legalization was coming to the ballot and stat that would bring with it a number of decisions that the city would have to make about zoning and regulation and so forth. and i decided at that time, at a
6:08 am
know it was a great, that rather than have a fire drill after the ballot measure passes, as suspected it would, we should plan an event. so i authored a task force to spend a year studying it and we made it a broad-based task force. >> we prepared ourselves by developing a health impact assessment and partnered that with key stakeholder discussions with washington, oregon, colorado, to really learn lessons from their experience rolling out both adult and medicinal cannabis. >> within days of the passing of the proposition, ed lee called on agencies to act decisively. >> he issued an executive order asking the department of public health, along with planning and other city departments to think through an internal working group around what we needed to do to consider writing this law. >> we collectively, i would say
6:09 am
that was representatives from g.s.a., as well as the mayor's office, met with a lot of departments to talk through what prop 64 and the implementation of prop 64 it meant to them. >> the mayor proposed an office of cannabis, a one-stop shop for permits allowing operators to grow and sell cannabis. >> he wanted a smart structure. he wanted a regulatory structure that ensured that kids didn't have access and community's were safe and that consumers were safe. and he wanted to ensure, more importantly, it was a regulatory structure that encouraged diversity and inclusivity. >> this is an office that will be solely charged with a duty of wanting not only the policies that we create, implementing and enforcing them, but also executing the licenses that are needed. we're talking about 20 different licenses that will put us into compliance with what is
6:10 am
happening on the state level. >> this is a highly, highly regulated industry now, at this point. we have anywhere from 7-10 departments that will be working with these industry participants as they go through the permitting process. that is a lot of work at a loss of coordination. we are creating a permitting process that is smart and is digital. it is much easier for the user and for community input, and is less mired in bureaucracy. >> for the first time ever in san francisco history, standalone licenses are available for all aspects of the nonretail side of the cannabis industry. now, a cultivator can go in to the department of building inspection and to the department of health and say, with this first registered and temporary license, and then what will eventually be a permanent license, this is the project, this is what i am going to do.
6:11 am
>> very rarely in city government do we interact with industries that are asking to be regulated. these guys want to be regulated. they want to be compliant. they want to work with the city. that is rare. >> san francisco has created a temporary licensing process so that the pre-existing operators here in san francisco can apply for a temporary state licensed. >> we have taken teams of up to 12 inspectors to inspect the facility twice a day. we have been doing that with the department of building inspection and the department of public health. and the fire department. >> it is really important for the industry to know that we are treating them like industry. like manufacturing. like coworkers pick so that is the way we are approaching this from a health and safety and a consumer protection network. this is just the way practice happens with restaurants or manufacturing facilities. >> because there are so many
6:12 am
pieces of industry that people haven't even thought about. there are different permits for each piece. you have to set up a permitting system for growing, for manufacturing, for testing. for delivery. for retail. you have to make sure that there is an appropriate health code. certainly the regulation of alcohol in terms of restaurants and retail it's probably a model for how this industry will be regulated as well, both on sale and consumption. >> it is completely uncharted territory. there is a blessing and a curse with that. it is exciting because we are on a new frontier, but it is very nerve-racking because there's a lot at stake. and quite frankly, being san francisco, being the state of california, people are looking to us. >> we hope that cannabis does become more of an accepted part of society in the same way that alcohol is, the same way coffee
6:13 am
is. >> it is a very innovative fear, particularly around manufacturing. san francisco could be an epicenter. >> san francisco can be a leader here. a global leader in the cannabis movement and set a bar just to other communities and cities and states and this nation how it is done. [♪] >> growing up in san francisco has been way safer than growing up other places we we have that bubble, and it's still that bubble that it's okay to be whatever you want to.
6:14 am
you can let your free flag fry he -- fly here. as an adult with autism, i'm here to challenge people's idea of what autism is. my journey is not everyone's journey because every autistic child is different, but there's hope. my background has heavy roots in the bay area. i was born in san diego and adopted out to san francisco when i was about 17 years old. i bounced around a little bit here in high school, but i've always been here in the bay. we are an inclusive preschool, which means that we cater to emp.
6:15 am
we don't turn anyone away. we take every child regardless of race, creed, religious or ability. the most common thing i hear in my adult life is oh, you don't seem like you have autism. you seem so normal. yeah. that's 26 years of really, really, really hard work and i think thises that i still do. i was one of the first open adoptions for an lgbt couple. they split up when i was about four. one of them is partnered, and one of them is not, and then my biological mother, who is also a lesbian. very queer family. growing up in the 90's with a queer family was odd, i had the bubble to protect me, and here, i felt safe. i was bullied relatively infrequently. but i never really felt isolated or alone. i have known for virtually my entire life i was not
6:16 am
suspended, but kindly asked to not ever bring it up again in first grade, my desire to have a sex change. the school that i went to really had no idea how to handle one. one of my parents is a little bit gender nonconforming, so they know what it's about, but my parents wanted my life to be safe. when i have all the neurological issues to manage, that was just one more to add to it. i was a weird kid. i had my core group of, like, very tight, like, three friends. when we look at autism, we characterize it by, like, lack of eye contact, what i do now is when i'm looking away from the camera, it's for my own comfort. faces are confusing. it's a lack of mirror neurons in your brain working properly to allow you to experience empathy, to realize where somebody is coming from, or to
6:17 am
realize that body language means that. at its core, autism is a social disorder, it's a neurological disorder that people are born with, and it's a big, big spectrum. it wasn't until i was a teenager that i heard autism in relation to myself, and i rejected it. i was very loud, i took up a lot of space, and it was because mostly taking up space let everybody else know where i existed in the world. i didn't like to talk to people really, and then, when i did, i overshared. i was very difficult to be around. but the friends that i have are very close. i click with our atypical kiddos than other people do. in experience, i remember when i was five years old and not wanting people to touch me because it hurt.
6:18 am
i remember throwing chairs because i could not regulate my own emotions, and it did not mean that i was a bad kid, it meant that i couldn't cope. i grew up in a family of behavioral psychologists, and i got development cal -- developmental psychology from all sides. i recognize that my experience is just a very small picture of that, and not everybody's in a position to have a family that's as supportive, but there's also a community that's incredible helpful and wonderful and open and there for you in your moments of need. it was like two or three years of conversations before i was like you know what? i'm just going to do this, and i went out and got my prescription for hormones and started transitioning medically, even though i had already been living as a male. i have a two-year-old. the person who i'm now married to is my husband for about two
6:19 am
years, and then started gaining weight and wasn't sure, so i we went and talked with the doctor at my clinic, and he said well, testosterone is basically birth control, so there's no way you can be pregnant. i found out i was pregnant at 6.5 months. my whole mission is to kind of normalize adults like me. i think i've finally found my calling in early intervention, which is here, kind of what we do. i think the access to irrelevant care for parents is intentionally confusing. when i did the procespective search for autism for my own child, it was confusing. we have a place where children can be children, but it's very
6:20 am
confusing. i always out myself as an adult with autism. i think it's helpful when you know where can your child go. how i'm choosing to help is to give children that would normally not be allowed to have children in the same respect, kids that have three times as much work to do as their peers or kids who do odd things, like, beach therapy. how do -- speech therapy. how do you explain that to the rest of their class? i want that to be a normal experience. i was working on a certificate and kind of getting think early childhood credits brefore i started working here, and we did a section on transgender inclusion, inclusion, which is a big issue here in san francisco because we attract lots of queer families, and the teacher approached me and said i don't really feel comfortable or qualified to talk about this from, like, a cisgendered straight person's perspective, would you mind talking a little
6:21 am
bit with your own experience, and i'm like absolutely. so i'm now one of the guest speakers in that particular class at city college. i love growing up here. i love what san francisco represents. the idea of leaving has never occurred to me. but it's a place that i need to fight for to bring it back to what it used to be, to allow all of those little kids that come from really unsafe environments to move somewhere safe. what i've done with my life is work to make all of those situations better, to bring a little bit of light to all those kind of issues that we're still having, hoping to expand into a little bit more of a resource center, and this resource center would be more those new parents who have gotten that diagnosis, and we want to be this one centralized place that allows parents to breathe for a second. i would love to empower from the bottom up, from the kid level, and from the top down, from the teacher level. so many things that i would love to do that are all about
6:22 am
changing people's minds about certain chunts, like the transgender community or the autistic community. i would like my daughter to know there's no wrong way to go through life. everybody experiences pain and grief and sadness, and that all of those things are temporar >> my name is holly i'm been in enterprise software training for 10 years that expired film
6:23 am
and art and voice-over week work and all kinds of work. >> i'm jane a program director for the state of california i have the privilege of working on special technology projects for the depth of the technology a passion for helping people and a passion for doing work that makes a difference and makes me feel good at night and i think about what i did today and helping every single person in the city as. >> a technology professional a need for more women and more women in leadership roles the diversity and the leadership pipeline is an area that needs a little bit of love. >> a lot of love. >> a whole lost love. >> i'll contribute for the
6:24 am
change for women's equality by showing up and demonstrating that the face of success schizophrenia came come in a variety of corresponds. >> they're a lot of roadblocks for san francisco when it comes to our proposition and finding a play for information that has how to start and grow management so we started to build the san francisco business portal not just consults or the taxpayers and voters they're actually customers we are the government serving the consumers in our neighborhood i point to at least one best that i personally touched with one way or another and makes me feel good about the projects like the business portal and in embarking on this new exciting journey of finding
6:25 am
better and efficient ways to deliver services to san franciscans i sit through a lot of senior management meetings i'm the only woman in the room i know that our c i o is tried to recruit for women and a male dominated environment. >> i've felt unbounded and inspired to pursue a lot of things over time i recognize to be cricked in ways i didn't anticipate you know i've followed the calling but now put me in a position to spend most of my time doing things i love this is the whole point; right? you ought to feel inspired in our work and found opportunities to have you're work put you in
6:26 am
service for others and happy doing what you're spending so much time. >> my father was a journalist lift and my mom a teacher when we finally decided to give up their lives because of me and now i actually get to serve the city and county of san francisco it makes me feel really, really good not this didn't happen overnight i've worked my entire life to get to this point and much more to learn and i have a lot of changes ahead. >> really think about what moves you what you're pat's about and trust that you are sufficient and enough where you are to begin and then is her that you are being tenacious about getting to the next place
6:27 am
in the evolution but by all means start with you are and know that's enough

>> good morning. good morning, everyone. i'm timothy fu, chair of the board of trustees for the san francisco skefconservatory of m. on behalf of the board, thank you all to be here for the breaking ground on the ute and william k. duboce center for being pyrri performing arts. when i joined the board many
6:32 am
years ago, we knew the conservatory belonged with the many arts at the civic center, and we knew we must providing housing for our students. so we succeeded in moving to the civic center in 2006, and now, we're breaking ground for the new student residence hall. so today, i'm incredibly proud of how all of us have come together to make the future possible. and i want to express my deepest thanks to the supporters of this project whose inspiring leadership and generosity have set us up for a successful second century of leading music education through innovation through a history of excellence, achievement, culture and collaboration. now i have the pleasure and the honor to introduce our mayor,
6:33 am
the mayor of san francisco, london breed. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: thank you, everyone. what a beautiful day to break ground on hundreds of units of housing for student artists. one the things i love to do as mayor. some of you know i used to serve as director of an organization, the african american arts and culture complex. it's not far from here, but we had incredible relationships with the arts community here where you have the symphony, the opera, sf jazz. this place has become a hub for artists everywhere, and now that the san francisco conservatory of music has decided to take it even a step further to decide to come up with this innovative
6:34 am
plan to come up with 420 units of housing for their students, it's absolutely amazing, and we should all be proud of what this project would do for housing in the city and county of san francisco. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: thank you also equally important, the 27 residents who were once housed here were not only housed very close to this particular development as it's under construction at the same rent they were paying, they will also be moved back into this building when it's built at the same rents that they had been paying through their rent control. and here's the thing: 27 people are not being displaced as a result of this project. we are adding more units, we're not displacing anyone, and the reason this is so great for the environment, it is within walking distance of the san francisco conservatory of music.
6:35 am
[applause] >> the hon. london breed: i can't be more proud. we have to do more to build more housing in san francisco. we have to think about the fact that this is an innovative place. people want to live here, they want to work here, they want to grow here, they want to thrive here, but what makes san francisco incredibly -- a great place for all of us, it's the arts, it's the music, it's the entertainment. it's all of the things that people come here to enjoy, and how are we going to continue to grow if we don't have opportunities that exist for them? if we don't provide housing that they can afford? if we don't open the doors of our opportunities to our artists who we know are constantly being displaced? it's a great day for san francisco, it's a great day for the arts community, and i am so looking forward to all the work we're going to continue to do to
6:36 am
revitalize the civic center area. yesterday, i looked out the window from my offices at city hall, i saw children playing in the park, i saw people standing in line at the birite we just opened two days ago, i saw people doing zumba, i saw people talking to people on the street, just hanging out. it's amazing, when you're taking care of everyone, including the community, every can enjoy. this is a project that's going to benefit this area and hopefully grow and thrive and provide places like this that provide housing like this for each and every one of us. thank you all so much for being here today. [applause] >> thank you, mayor. thank you so much for your support and your commitment to
6:37 am
the arts. we really are very honored to have you take time from your busy schedule today to be with us. and now, i have the pleasure of introducing the person who has designed this building, marvelous facility for all of us, but the best design architect in the city of san francisco, mark cavanero. >> thank you. we've been working on this for years, to see a building coming out of the ground is every architect's dream. we talked about innovatition as we talked about this project, and i think that word is really singular for this building, and
6:38 am
the vision that tim and dave and the board have, in that we're not just building a building, but a whole organism for arts and music. the students will be living here, performing here, and it will offer a whole snapshot into arthur world when you're walking or driving up vanness or hayes. it's not just about education, it's about a whole san francisco community coming together in one new building. and for an architect, it can't get much more exciting. so thank you for all of this, and thank you for letting me be a part of this, dave, tim, and the board. thank you. [applause] >> thank you. i can't wait to see this coming up. now i have the pleasure to introduce my good friend and
6:39 am
coconspirator, president of the music conservatory, david stow. >> believe we're standing here, no really. i've worked on some projects, if you want to try and reach beyond your grasp, this project is really that. it's only because of some people that are sitting here and some people that are not here today. mayor breed and supervisor kim, i can't say enough about these two individuals. nothing goes through city hall this fast, at least in my experience. the reason this happened is there were great advocates in the city. people saw the benefit of it for the community, and it happened at an extraordinary rate.
6:40 am
but before i talk to the building, i want to talk about some people that made this happen. some of you who may not recognize that this made this happen, jessica downs. you're out there somewhere. can you raise your hand? honey, thank you. the amount of time that this requires requires help from somebody who is your friend and believes in it with you, and jessica did that. i is also want to say we have a top team of anybody in san francisco. as i represent the conservatory, i can't tell you how famous our team is. the development crew, the senior staff, our c.f.o., katie, kathrin -- everyone here from the sfcm staff, raise your hands. ladies and gentlemen, this is a great group, and we would not have gotten it done without them. this started in a couple of
6:41 am
interesting ways. mark cavanero accepted my invitation for a cup of coffee. we had no project, no site, nothing. mark started sketching on his own what it would look like, a facility like this. mark brought his team, a great crew at cavan 0ed ro. this team worked tirelessly. this project is a residence unit for students. it is two spectacular performance halls, a recording studio, teaching space, a restaurant, yes, sitting right here. if you can imagine the architectural constlants like doing sweeping glass on the west and north walls that also create a beautiful acoustical space. but the reality is 90% of the
6:42 am
concerts in those spaces are free to the public. this is a great way to bring music in, and in that building, 99% of the students are on financial aid, and the 27 units are rent stablized, and every dollar it generates goes back to support scholarships for future students. [applause] >> these guys did an extraordinary job. i can't say enough about how many hurdles they across for us. our law firm did amazing work. there was so many folks working at the city level who also provided this great work. and the fact is it was the team that made it happen, and i said to our c.f.o. this morning that
6:43 am
at every point in this project, there was somebody on the team that made an extraordinary event happen. otherwise, the entire thing would have stopped. that's how much this was a combined project. but ladies and gentlemen, we don't do projects like this without people who actually believe and put substantial resources behind them. and i can't tell you how fortunate we are in san francisco because when you look to davies hall, the opera, the conservatory, sf jazz, to the museums, to the incredible cultural life that we enjoy here, it is because actually not as many as you think, but actually, a very small handful of people for generations have made those things happen for this city and are making this building happen right now. not here are richard blum and senator feinstein, and others, all whom made substantial financial events. can we give them a round of applause, please, for their leadership on that. [applause] >> the next phase of this, the
6:44 am
architect, we have lots of fund raising, as you can imagine. financing makes it all happen, and this was a tricky project to finance. hey, we're this conservatory of 400 students, and we want to build this $90 million building on vanness. think about this. this happened because jim herbert decided it would happen. jim, on behalf of myself, thank you to you and all of your team. it's 3.9 prs fixed over 30 years because jim thought it was important to put up this building. jim and cecelia, i just want to thank you for that. it was incredible. early folks who were in, carol and lyman casey.
6:45 am
carol's family has been supporting the art ms. this city in so many ways with affection and tremendous investment. carol was one of the first people who walked in my office and we were talking about this, and she said this needs to happen, and she continued the investment and continued the investment. carol i want to thank you for all that you've done for us. thank you so much. [applause] >> along the way, every project has a patron saint, actually, and the fact is i will talk about this a bit more today, but we lost bill bose early on, and when that happens, that laefshs kind of a vacuum in leadership. barney osher stepped in and made this thing happen. he not onlily invested in this,
6:46 am
but i can't tell you what it meant to this being accomplished. and so this brings us down to the finish line. we were in raping of getting this done. jim was prepared to give us a loan, but frankly we were short and we needed a gift and a bridge that was crossed, and a colleague and a friend of mine who was a wonderful composer, but i have to tell you, you see his name because of the enormous amount of giving done, and that was gordon getty, and gordon stepped in and absolutely made this project get across the finish line, and that was how we got there, and gordon, i can't thank you enough. but i want to say that none of this, none of this would have han if it weren't for bill. -- happen if it weren't for bill. bill bose, even before there was
6:47 am
a property, even before there was a design, it was me and bell at the union club with bill saying, we need this. he was quiet, and he said, you know, that sounds like a good idea. bill believed in the necessity of housing for students from the moment the civic center project was arrived at on oak street. he has given so generously to so many projects: students, environment, the arts, education. he has advanced so many companies and career throughout his lifetime. and he really resisted anything being named for him. and the fact is, the fact that this building will be named for william k.bose and ute bows will
6:48 am
be wonderful, because it'll have a great soul. and perhaps one of the things that this led me to do was to get to know ute, and i will talk about that at lunch today. but the people we find in this city in this kind of work aren't to be found in many places in this world. they just aren't. that brings me to the final folks i want to thank. we wouldn't have gotten here and i wouldn't have gotten here if it weren't for our board chair, tim folk, and his amazing wife, virginia. virginia, thank you for being here, by the way. i want all of all board members, can you raise your hands for a second -- we have multiple seven figure donors that -- out in the audience. i've never seen a board this
6:49 am
cohesive, this supportive that made it a pleasure. it's a dream come true for this conservatory, but i think it's a dream come true for all of us. i can't say more than thank you, but i wish that i could because the gratitude runs down to my very bones. it's a privilege to be standing here with you all because it makes me a better person. i can tell you we've crossed over, 109 million for this project, but there's still time to investment any of you that are inspired to be involved, let me know. so let's fine will he get to the reason we're doing this. students, can you raise your hands out there. we're going to give you a round of applause. [applause] >> if there's ever a moment where you're wondering if we can get it done, if you stand for a
6:50 am
moment in our building with our students, you wonder how you can get it done. they're amazing young students, and they will go out and change the world, and they have changed the world for over 100 years. the fact that we can put a roof over their head that's affordable is amazing. as i said, 99% are on financial aid. it's my pleasure to introduce the chair of our student council. she is a master's student of voice, mia skolnick. >> good morning, everyone. my name is mia skolnick, and i am a second year master's student in voice here at the conservatory. sf conservatory is a special
6:51 am
place, and i am so proud to be here. i applied to several conservatories around the country, but i chose to come here because of its diversity, values, and the feeling i got when i came here. there was a welcoming atmosphere at the conservatory that let me know right away i was at home. two years ago i was living in portland, oregon, where i grew up, working a regular office job, singing on the side. i had gotten my undergraduate degree in music had you had drifted away from my passion. one day, i had a realization that life is too short not to do what makes you happy, and that was what led me to san francisco and to the conservatory. sfcm is providing me with skills and tools to become a professional musician out in the world. the caliber of excellence we
6:52 am
have here at sfcm is simply unmatched, and i wouldn't be getting this kind of education anywhere else. the bose center will expand our dynamic community as our campus more than doubles in size providing even more state of the art opportunities and resources for students. the bose center will mean so many wonderful things for our future, its proximity to the incredible arts partners in the civic center area, beautiful new spaces for collaboration among students, if a kilt, and visiting artists, and most importantly, it means that sfcm can reach and inspire even more musicians of the future. on behalf of all my fellow students, thank you so everyone who has made this project possible, and now, let's break
6:53 am
6:54 am
ground. [applause]
