i would like to say. i would like the commission to look into the preference of holders [indiscernible] something was brought up many times before they changed the redevelopment agency. it is important that the grandkids of the certificate holders, like myself, grandkids have the opportunity. they will be relocated. now that we have the new mayor, we have a commissioner in the

district and a supervisor, i think it is time for them to push this and make it happen. so i just hope the commissioners look into that because it is important to those certificate holders. [indiscernibl [indiscernibl [indiscernible] you guys

supported the agenda. and the also the mission district. i go where they allow me to go. sometimes i go out in the city, sometimes it is cheaper than in the city. i know that there is a lot of people who lived in south park. you will find none of the places in the area now and what happened? they need certificates so they can move back into those areas with the low rent certificate. i have a bunch of family and friends who live down here and they need to have the opportunity to move back there

also. thank you very much. it is good to see you. you guys keep up the good work. you are doing a wonderful job. you guys are working very hard. i commend you. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> the commissioners are doing an excellent job. i would say here, briefly, but firmly about the obligations.

now, let me be frank with you. you all do a good job with the rest of the city. [indiscernible] you know who i am talking about. but right now, as said in the presentation, the san francisco trend. the san francisco trend, the population is going down. the budgets are going sky high. what would it be without us. i am sick and tired.

[indiscernible] you might as well bring it all back because back in the days you gave respect to activists like me. [indiscernible] we will change things in the city. y community assistance, service. we are going to make money for

enterprise. in our community, you need to come up here, we have the oversight board. [indiscernible] >> no more speakers? >> we are closing public comment. bring the next item. >> the next item of business is number 7. the next order of business is

item 8. report of the executive directors. item 8a report on compliance of october 2017. for the redevelopment areas. discussion, madam director? >> this item is talking about the community benefit programs. phase i and phase ii. as we discussed several meetings ago, we agreed that once a year, the developer will look at the ideas. we continue to see improvements. the developers demonstrated that

there are efforts to comply with the commitment. we see two issues they are working on. we see development and we expect to see more improvement in the next reporting. with job training and community building programs. this is just an informational item unless there are specific questions. an attachment to the developer outlining the review of the report as well as areas where they need to work on. >> in the citlet me stick to my

here. now, this commissio-- i don't k the heck you are all doing. just wasting time. all that stuff is toxic and everything. so the bottom line right now, you sit down. when we first came here, when there was redevelopment, this was at one time. you go through all of the names of all the characters. i brought a books now. it is time to tell the history. it ain't no mystery.

there is a lot of conspiracy. when you look at the book. it is about faces, places, all part of the case. i am not a lawyer or preacher or teacher. i don't know what is going on. i am going to sit down. i will sit down with the federal government. i want to s i want to sit down with those who sign the contracts. listen, they sign the contract. you can ignore me if you want, but it is on the record. we will investigate.

this is a federal issue. [indiscernible] so in closing, i will say this, you know, [indiscernible] anyway, it is a game changer. >> oscar james.

i have been dealing with since 1973. and on the committee. i told them then about the yard. and also, i went back to washington, d.c. when the honourable bill clinton was president and i brought it up to him for environmental justice law was signed about the toxins in the yard. anyway, some of that about the shipyard and what they are doing, i know in the program,

they are talking about having money for a facility. the extension of a health centre behind the park. and funds for that building. it was a two storey building has been approved by the city. we need additional monies. with what is happening in the shipyard. there will be needed more health care needed in the community. also, your community developers will -- the organization is still in existence, we want them

to have say so on employment and job opportunities for people in the community. if we don't work, nobody works. i will say any time to anyone, make sure all are recognized. we started a program in 1970. [indiscernible] the we -- we want to make sure all are recognized and are given the due diligence they deserve. there is more on my mind. thank you very much. i think the commissioner is doing a tremendous job. she is making sure the community

is involved. the commissioner is committed to making sure that the benefit package is being moved forward. all the residents are recognized. thank you very much. keep doing the good job you are doing. thank you. >> i do have one more announcement. i wanted to give an update to the commissioners. so far, i see back in the summer, the city, asked the department of public health to

retest. they found nothing other than the bill. other than that, all they have was the recurring substance. so they deemed it safe. my expectation is they will release a report concluding that work is completed. they also started a2 and they are about to wrap that up. the expectation as of today, they have not found anything. they were expecting to get a report finally put out from california department of public health on a1 and then a2 which will conclude the cleanup of the retest of the 1 and 2. what to come on phase ii will be provided. >> thank you. >> i wawe are looking forward t

work with you and setting the agenda for the coming year. >> thank you, director. >> i look forward to working with you. let's go back to the commissioners. are there questions on the compliance report? commissioner scott has -- >> i really commend the community benefits project. it is amazing. and i am literally in tears when i read it. grateful. i am in tears. it is wonderful outreach. great help. the grant scholarship. and going over to page 36, again, the -- i think it is close to the very next to last,

implement committee expenditures continued. and it says granting san francisco housing development corporation. 116-24. that is page 36. implementation. phase ii. okay. so then it says, to provide financial empowerment services to expand the financial capability of 100 moderate income households in district 10. how do you select the households for this? so the implementation committee is under a separate package. it does not provide oversight for this. it is outside of the jurisdiction.

it is the implementation committee that determines this. the developers has provided the information to get a picture. it is under a different package. >> does that go for the other entities? >> yes. >> okay. thank you so much. >> any other questions from fellow commissioners? >> i do have one request. i would ask at the next board meeting to have the organization who manages be brought up. you know, we just want to hear from the legacy foundation.

if they could give us an update. like everything is great on paper. i would love to also hear from them. i think it is time to hear from them. i think we were here when it was approved. but i would like information on the next report. thank you for being here. >> there is one more. >> the report, the background -- some of the pages i could not read with a magnifying glass. plain white. thank you very much for being here. madam secretary.

call the next item. >> the order of business is item 9. the commissioners questions. madam chair. >> fellow commissioners. do you have any questions? >> i have one. i would like to end this meeting in honour of the man who left a great legacy and a great mark to the community, especially the african-american community. he provided a lot of information that this commission had been working on all these years to try and make sure that, you know, folks who live in a redevelopment area got the information, the certificates of

the workshops. he passed away. and i think it is important for us to just end this meeting in his honour if we can, madam chair. >> of course. we will do that. anything else? >> thank you. i just wanted to mark 6 years of the commission . december 2012 is when i started the journey. at the time i felt more than -- like i was in kindergarten on some of the topics. i want to thank the staff and the executive directors for having the patience to train me and teach me and give me a wonderful experience as a commissioner. i want to say happy holidays to the fellow commissioners. and to staff. thank you. >> thank you, commissioner.

you are not saying good-bye are you? >> to 2018. >> i was with you. both of us were appointed at the same time. 6 years. happy anniversary to both of us. and to the commission. also the commission. and to the staff. thank you very much. and for all the work that you have put into in making us grow. and achieve all the lists of projects that we have to project. we will see you at the party. >> i am going to the party. i don't know about all of you. and, okay. any other questions?

commissioner questions and answers. >> okay. so madam secretary, please call the next business. >> there are no closed session items. the next order of business is item 11. adjournment. >> yes, thank you. we adjourn in honour. >> the motion to adjourn? >> second. >> moved and seconded by commissioner scott. thank you all for being here. it is 3:25. the meeting is adjourned.

sustainability mission, even though the bikes are very minimal energy use. it still matters where the energy comes from and also part of the mission in sustainability is how we run everything, run our business. so having the lights come on with clean energy is important to us as well. we heard about cleanpowersf and learned they had commercial rates and signed up for that.

it was super easy to sign up. our bookkeeper signed up online, it was like 15 minutes. nothing has changed, except now we have cleaner energy. it's an easy way to align your environmental proclivities and goals around climate change and it's so easy that it's hard to not want to do it, and it doesn't really add anything to the bill. >> this has been a dream in the making, especially for our general manager, for many, many years, to be able to allow residents of the tenderloin and western addition to be able to walk and skate at civic center plaza and experience a little slice of an east coast winter.

>> it truly was a one-of-a-kind collaboration between willie b. productions and the city departments. he said i want to challenge you to come up with something bigger and more fun, and something in such a historic location right here, right in front of city hall. this is amazing. >> we starting off by leveling the entire plaza. it was about a two-week process to get the area brought up to a dead level because the ice risk itself is not tolerant of any change in slope, because the water would build up at one end. then, we brought in these

refrigeration panels that we can circulate a brine solution in to bring the solution down to colder than 32°, and then, start spraying water on it, which, for the last two days, nature has taken care of that for us. and then freeze it, and it becomes ice that you can skate it. >> as you can see, the ice is about an inch thick, and it'll get up to 1.5 inches thick. with that, we can control the ice. most people that do outdoor skating rinks make a big sand box, and they lay these tubes in it, cover it with sand, and then, the ice gets to be about 6 inches thick or 8 inches thick. well, with that thick, you're not going to control the

surface. it gets wet with the sun. that makes it unique with our 1.5 inch thick ice, with the panels. >> this year, we're bringing a unique feature to san francisco. it's a skate track that runs down through the trees. it's over 400 feet of track. this is sort of models after -- modelled after the city hall in austria. you can make a narrow skating path and get that experience. >> what we are doing is working with the san francisco unified school district to bring any kids who go to school in the tenderloin to skate here for free. the operators have been wonderful in making that possible, and we have been -- we, the recreation and parks department, have been the people connecting schools to this ice rink. >> there has to be well over 100 people that have either been married or proposed to on

the ice. in fact, they have this club that gets together once a year, and they go down to john's grill, and they celebrate and drink and eat and dine, sometimes before, sometimes after skating. they go to union square, and they relive those magical moments all once again. so who knows, with city hall being right here, we could see an increase in proposal and marriages on the ice. i don't know, but i've been on it. it's not just about you coming and getting on the ice, it's about you coming and skating successfully, skating safely, and creating those holiday magical >> additionally, there is a sign in seat at the front table.

[♪]

>> mr president, you have a quorum. >> thank you. next item, please. >> it allows members of the public to comment gingerly on the matters that are within the jurisdiction of the small business commission, but not on today's calendar and suggest new agenda items for the commission 's consider -- future consideration. >> are there any members of the public would like to make comment on any item that is not on today's agenda caught seeing then, public comment is closed. >> item three is recognition of katy tang. member at board of supervisors district four. discussion item. [laughter]

>> firstly, i am very sad you are leaving. >> they want you to speak into the microphone. >> okay. all right. on this monday, december 10th, 2018, the small business commission would like to recognize supervisor katy tang to the contributions of the vitality of the san francisco small businesses. katy tang has worked as a city representative for over a decade and served as district four supervisor since 2013. covering the sunset parkside area. during her tenure on the board of supervisors, her collaborative and pragmatic approach to advocating policy goals benefiting small businesses that not only serve the sunset parkside area, but citywide kick the right -- for leadership introduces incentives

for affordable and friendly housing through a home s.f., flexible retail to allow businesses and share spaces across business activities. streamlined permitting for new businesses, and the accessible business entrance program to curb drive-by lawsuits and increased access for individuals with disability. what we forgot is when you worked with carmen to, you did, every may, the free waving of the overhead banners for businesses and i know you are part of that because you spoke in our commission about that. further supervisor tang's activity, active engagement of her promotion and small businesses exemplifies her passion and dedication. it is for these reasons that the small business commission is proud to recognize supervisor katy tang for her contributions as a dedicated city

representative for the people of san francisco and its small businesses. thank you. happy birthday. >> thank you. >> i will give you this and this >> thank you so much. >> it is all up to you now. >> thank you. >> do you want to say anything? >> thank you so much. i didn't know you did honouring here at the commission, but i want to say i am so appreciative if money were never a concern of mine, people ask me what i would do, i would say, i wish i could run a little stationary store selling cards or whatnot. i'm a very risk-averse person. i know it takes so much guts for people to actually open their own small business, and that's why i have a lot of respect for all of you and what you do. whether you have your own small business or you are helping other people to be able to live their dreams. it is not easy in san francisco. i wish it were a smooth process. working as an aide is what opens

me i guess my eyes to how difficult it was. people would call our office usually when they were really at the maximum level of frustration and couldn't figure out how to navigate the systems or interact with some of the city staff, or departments. so over the years, i collected all that feedback and as i am leaving, and people ask what i feel most proud of, one of them is absolutely my work in -- and legislation and helping small businesses and pushing the envelope on certain things the city has always done. but why do we do it that way? why do we need to add more time and heartache and financial strain on businesses that are trying to open? it is very interesting that you are giving this recognition today. i think mayor breed recognizes it as well. it is building upon the office work citywide. i'm excited to hear that and hope it will continue. thank you for all that you do

inventing legislation as well in terms of small business impact, and i'm really grateful and i have enjoyed working with all of you over the years. thank you so much for this recognition. [applause] >> i also want to congratulate jim lazarus. the next honouree. [laughter] >> really quick, before,, we will take pictures behind here when we are done with both of our honourees. any members -- we have to do this. any members of the public who would like say anything? seeing then, public comment is closed. would any of the commissioners like to make any comments? >> thank you for four year tenure on the boards. you are definitely a hands-on legislator. whenever i was representing constituents concerns that i came to your office, he would meet with us one on one. he would ask us questions and to really interrogate the problem

and to understand. i appreciate that so much. it is actually an anomaly among legislators to really want to hear the details of a case started endorsed case study of a particular business or particular sector. i respect that so much. i hope that may be we can stay in touch and i can pick your brain further even though you are off the board. thank you. >> hello. i also want to thank you for your service to the city. i know that everybody in the sunset district loves you. they are very sad to see you go. i hope you keep in touch and good luck to whatever you will do next. >> we all have to say its. we will miss you so much, and you have been such an asset to small business. i know you will continue to wear your rickshaw for specs with pride and i know it will be moving from your office to your home, what you've been a great advocate on behalf of small

business. so thank you. >> hello, supervisor. i have only been here for a little while, but i've heard nothing but good things about you. and the little i have seen has been wonderful. good luck in your venture. >> i just want to say its been really wonderful to work with you from our office. really soliciting input. i think the list was too long for us to put on the certificate in terms of all your accomplishments, but one example of what really stood out for me is the lactation policy, and really wanting to champion some needed -- a needed policy in our workplace, but really taking the time to bring in all the stakeholders and figuring out how can we implement this so that we can achieve our goal and make sure that it is doable for all size businesses and creating

a policy that is not a one-size-fits-all. and i think as other commissioners have said, it is your process, and how you have worked with the business community and implementing legislation is going to be missed because it was very well-thought-out and very inclusive, and much appreciated. >> okay. next item. but don't go anywhere. >> item four his recognition of jim lazarus. senior vice president of public policy, san francisco chamber of commerce. discussion item. >> okay. i may start crying during this one. [laughter] >> before i read it, jim has been like a mentor to me. ever since i got on this commission, and he was at city hall, he knows if i see him on the street or something, i would pick his brain and say what do i do here clot you are going back to diane. i want to personally say thank

you for all your advice that you have given me over many years. i feel like i'm a better person for it. hopefully i can get through this now. okay. jim lazarus, san francisco chamber of commerce. on this monday, december 10th, 2018, the small business commission is honored to recognize jim lazarus for his contributions to the vitality of san francisco small businesses. jim has served as senior vice president of public public policy at the san francisco chamber of commerce for a total of 15 years. this position, he brought a wealth of experience and business, and civil service that made him a formidable force when helping the san francisco legislator balances progressive policy goals, yet ensure it remained an environment in which small businesses can thrive, and all businesses.

he is a legislative historian and fourth-generation san franciscan. his passion and commitment to the city our one-of-a-kind, and his impact will be ingrained into the fabric of san francisco for years to come. it is for these reasons and more that the san francisco small business commission would like to thank jim lazarus for a fruitful partnership over the years, and is proud to recognize him for all of his contributions for the people of the city and county of san francisco, and small businesses. with that, i would like to give you that. thank you. >> thank you very much. i appreciate it. >> here is a little parting gift >> thank you. [laughter] >> don't start the three minutes , that may be i will cut it down to one. thank you very much. it has been great to work with all of you end with virginia and this commission and their predecessors to the commissioners here today. back to the chamber, i had been there many years ago between my time in the feinstein and jordan administrations, i knew there was only certain things we can

accomplish, and i said my motto should be we delay the inevitable. i think you've been partners with us in delaying the inevitable many times, but also educating members of the board of supervisors of the balancing act as he mentions there to the needs of the community and the needs of workers and the needs of business and the needs of micro business, small business, larger business. we have tried to do our best to educate the board and to come to some successes on balancing those needs and how legislation affects a micro business versus a large business. so we tried to bring everyone to the table in my years at the chamber, and i appreciate working with this commission, your staff, with our partner organizations. large and small. merchant groups out in the neighborhoods capped a downtown partner organizations to try and make this as good as we can make it as a place to make a living,

to succeed, to employ people, and i have appreciated the work and the time i have spent working with all of you, and the time you have given me as i have been up here with my few minutes on issues of importance to our community. thank you very much and i appreciate it. i look forward to helping you out if you have problems with any federal agency, you can go to the feinstein office come january 2nd, and we will make sure we have staff working to solve those problems. thanks a lot. >> thank you. >> don't leave yet. >> mark dwight. jim, we are going to miss you. my career here in san francisco and in small business advocacy starved at the chambers of commerce years ago. you were there and you have been a role model to me since i first met you. the city loses one of the most clear thinking and levelheaded legislative experts that we have here and we will miss you as we face a challenge after challenge

as we always do, and you have been a tremendous asset in a tremendous role model for me. thank you very much. >> commissioner riley? >> jim, we will miss you. we are going to miss you. [laughter] >> i don't know what to say. it's been a pleasure working with you, and you certainly have been an asset, and you've helped us a lot to make some difficult decisions, so thanks. >> i want to say thank you as well. same, i started as a scrappy representative trying to advocate for our sidelined corner stores in san francisco. and you really help tone a tone a lots of thoughts and teamed up with some legislation and some ideas that really, although we didn't succeed in that particular endeavour, i really appreciate all your advising. thank you.

>> commissioner corby? >> i really enjoy seeing your face out there for the short amount of time i've been here. i love seeing a familiar face and you have been here quite a few times. i've enjoyed seeing your face out there and that's about all i can say. >> i will come back in public comment. >> yes, please do. [laughter] >> through the president, jim, i also want to extend my great appreciation for your mentorship , and it's always been fascinating for me to hear the story, the history, especially with legislation that was created before i started working with the office of small business, but then gets revisited, and to really be able to speak to you about that and give the context to understand why revision is happening, and who the players are, and how

best to proceed moving forward. while it is great you will not go too far, but that ability just to pick up the phone and be able to talk to you has been immensely invaluable to me. so thank you. >> i remember the number from before. [laughter] >> you can get me there. >> since this is an unofficial item, do we have any members of the public would like to say anything? seeing none, public comment is close. i want to make sure all my bases are covered. >> we will go do some pictures appear with them. >> commissioners, if you could move your microphones down.

[indiscernible] >> thank you. get in here. are we close enough here? >> where do you want me to move? closer. >> which camera do we look at? left or right. [laughter] >> okay. >> three, two, one. >> great.

>> all right. what i would like to do is -- >> to mayor's office there. [laughter] >> i would like to do one with supervisor tang and commissioner lazarus. [laughter] >> that is a proud picture. >> one more. [laughter] >> all right. thanks a lot. >> one, two, three. >> that's great.

okay. [laughter] >> perfect. [laughter] [applause] >> thank you very much. >> thank you. thank you. >> thank you. we will miss you. >> thank you so much. >> congratulations. >> i'll still be around. [laughter] >> all right, thank you. >> you can run but you can't hide. [laughter] >> next item, please. >> item five. presentation an update on the accessible business entrance program and grant program. discussion item.

presenters from the office of small business. >> commissioners, you do have a powerpoint. >> we do indeed. >> all right. good evening, commissioners. i am the cystic project manager and business case manager for the office of small business. i am here to present an update on the acceptable business entrance program. i will go over a snapshot of compliance and outreach. osb's involvement and the small business support services that we offer. i manage the efforts at our office through the direction of the director. all right. the accessible business entrance program, which is very timely, because supervisor tang authored it, it went into effect may 22 nd, 2016, the ordinance number 51-16, requires property owners of buildings that have places of public accommodation

to make all primary entrances accessible to people with disabilities. the program applies to places of public accommodation per title iii of the americans americans with disabilities act or the a.d.a. this includes restaurants, bars, retail stores, laundromats, pretty much any business that welcomes bit workers into the public into their place of business is considered a place of public accommodation. the program only applies to the primary entrance. on the slide here, the photo that you see here within the building, there are multiple tenant spaces inside the building where the subject -- the program is only looking at the primary entrance. so that main entrance that goes into the public way. the ordinance assigns responsibility to the property owner, though later in the

presentation, i will talk about the impact to small business -- small business tenants. as the building code addition, the program is administered by the department of building inspection and an interagency collaborative group is working together on implementation. this includes planning department on the guidelines for historic buildings. public works on public right-of-way, and sidewalk modifications, the access appeals commission for technical and feasibility and unreasonable hardship requests, osb, as a small business resource, and the mayor's office on disability for their expertise on a.d.a. title two, and also experience in serving the disabled community. our office is very active in the inner agency group. i would say we have a very close working relationship with the building department. we have supported them in their

efforts through coordinating outreach efforts, helping to create materials and resources, and we are also very active in helping them work through nuances of implementation. i will go through the slide fairly quickly. these are the steps for compliance for the ordinance. the first step is to review the program requirements which are on d.b.i.'s accessible business website webpage. and determine which form to submit the eye there are three forms that i want to mention here. the first is the prescreening form is also known as exemption form, the buildings that are not subject to the ordinance for four reasons. one is that the building is not a place of public accommodation.

it is purely a residential building so does not have commercial spaces. those buildings we would submit the prescreening form. there is a waiver form that documents that your entryway was brought into accessibility through previous construction projects. so the waiver form is the form he would fill out, and on that form, you would note the building that construction work had been done. and the third form, which most of the businesses subject to the ordinance have to go through the three, for, and five steps here, is called the category compliance, form. step three, for those buildings that do not fill out the prescreening, or the waiver form , they would have to hire a

designed -- a licensed design professional or a certified access specialist to survey the entryway, fill out the compliance checklist form and submit to d.b.i. either category compliance checklist deadline, that form. for categories two, three, and four, i will go over those categories in the next i'd. the licensed design professional will propose the remediation that will bring the building into compliance. after the checklist is submitted and based on that proposed remediation, steps four and five to round out compliance is to further erode the building permit by the category deadline, and obtained a building permit, and then complete the permitted work. this is a schedule of the compliance deadline. the compliance deadlines per building is based on the

building's category. that category is determined by the license design professional or the certified access specialist when they survey the entryway. category one buildings are buildings that are in compliance category two buildings have minor barriers and no steps to the entryway. examples of minor barriers include door handles that require twisting or turning of the wrist, a slope to the entrance, slopes leading up to the entrance on the sidewalk, or narrow or heavy doorways. category three is buildings that have one step to the entryway. category four has two or more steps and other major barriers. as you can see, we are less than three weeks away from the first

compliance deadline for the ordinance. for categories one and two cow compliance deadlines are january 1st, 2019. shown here, the ordinance does allow for a request for a six-month extension for reasonable delay. extensions will be granted by d.b.i. on a case by case basis. reasonable delay could include the inability to secure a design professional or a cast before the category's compliance deadline. it could also include financial hardship or scheduling issues. property owners that are seeking an extension will have to fill out a request for extension form , and submit the form before the category deadline. okay. moving onto outreach, i will give a quick update on outreach in compliance to date.

d.b.i. estimates 24,000 storefronts are subject to the program. the number of storefronts is associated with 11,255 property owners. as of today, december 10th, 2,850 forms were submitted to, which means 2,850 storefronts so far have complied with the ordinance, and this number is tied to 934 property owners. 934 property owners have complied with the ordinance. there have been four mailers sent out to property owners from d.b.i. most recently, early november they sent out a 60 day notice. we have seen at our office, an uptick in halls about the ordinance. d.b.i. confirmed they have also seen an uptick in checklist submittals as well and over the

last year, we have been very involved in the outreach interagency groups through workshops, workshops held at d.b.i., we also have reached out to merchants and business groups the director did a joint merchant walk in different districts with a director from d.b.i. and we intend to continue this outreach through the compliance, the compliance deadline date. okay. moving on to the impacts to small businesses, as a building code addition, as a mention to, the ordinance assigned compliance to the property owner however, some property owners will choose, and have chosen to allocate the responsibility to their small business tenants. what we are observing a
