>> president yee: okay. good afternoon, and welcome to the april 23rd, 2019, regular meeting of the san francisco board of supervisors. madame clerk, would you please call the roll? >> thank you, mr. president. supervisor brown? brown present. supervisor fewer? now fewer present. haney present. mandelman not present. mar not present. peskin present. ronen present. safai present. stefani present. walton present.
2:04 pm
yee present. mr. president, you have a quorum. >> president yee: thank you, ladies and gentlemen, would you please join me in the pledge of allegiance. i pledge allegiance to the flag of the united states of america, and to the republic, for which it stands, one nation, under god, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. >> president yee: on behalf of the board, i would like to acknowledge the staff at sfgovtv. matthew and maya, who record each of our meetings and make the transcripts available to the public online. madame clerk, any communications? >> clerk: none to respect, mr.
2:05 pm
president. >> president yee: we're aapproving of the minutes of the marsh 12 meeting. can i have a motion to approve the minutes as presented? move on with objections, these minutes will be approved after public comment. okay. we have a special treat today. madame clerk, would you call the 2:00 special order. >> clerk: item number 1, we welcome the honorable mayor, london breed, present in the chamber to engage in a policy discussion with eligible members of the board. two minutes are allotted for each question and corresponding answer. public comment for this item will take place in general
2:06 pm
public comment. the mayor may address the board for up to five minutes. >> president yee: welcome, madame mayor, mayor breed, do you have opening remarks. >> mayor breed: thank you, good afternoon to everyone. as many of you know, the port commission will be voting on the city's m.o.u. to put a safe navigation center at embarcadero, lot 330. and if approved, this site will be the largest navigation center providing shelter and services for up to 200 of our most vulnerable san franciscans. our proposal has received a lot of scrutiny and media attention, but i believe it's necessary, it's urgent and clearly is the right thing to do. san francisco must be able to provide a safe place to sleep for our residents. this will require more navigation centers, more shelters and above all, more
2:07 pm
housing. i want to be clear that i've heard community feedback throughout dozens of community meetings and hoa meetings about the safe navigation center. above all, san franciscans want safety and accountability. this is a value that i also share. we plan to work with the south beach neighbors and the residents in the area to ensure that we give regular data driven updates on whether this model is working and we've developed a robust public safety plan for the area, including additional officers for the neighborhood. our goal has always been to try and provide support for our homeless population, as well as wraparound services and to hopefully, eventually, permanently get them off the streets. we as a city must be accountable to our residents and we also must be accountable to those who
2:08 pm
are most vulnerable. if this safe navigation center does not work, if it does not keep both the clients and the neighbors safe and stable, we should not continue to fund it. i want to recognize supervisor matt haney for his leadership and hard work and commitment to working on this safe navigation center. this 200 beds is so important to our goal of getting to a thousand beds by 2020. we all know in this chamber that homelessness and housing are the number -- housing affordablity are the number one issues that our city continues to face and we must put forward new creative solutions that will help lead to better results and that includes insuring that we're able to build more housing, especially affordable housing throughout the city. i remain committed to investing
2:09 pm
every opportunity to find new sites for navigation centers, new sites for affordable housing, and continuing the path that will lead us to the better results. i want to thank you all so much for having me here today. >> president yee: thank you, mayor breed. madame clerk, can you please call the first topic. >> the topic submitted by supervisor mar representing district 4 is about transparency and opportunities for public input during the fiscal year 2019-2020 budget process. >> president yee: okay, supervisor mar, please ask your opening question. >> supervisor mar: thank you, president yee. back in january, in my first week here on the board, i was able to ask a question about specific and concrete opportunities that members of the public have to provide meaningful input on the city's budget priorities. thank you, mayor breed, for your response at that time that you had directed your departments to
2:10 pm
solicit feedback on the proposed budgets. directed your budget staff to meet with coalitions. and that you were "looking to the members of the board of supervisors to assist with soliciting neighborhood feedback". my constituents are concerned about public input and oversight on the department budget process. particularly those without commissions and ones so vital to our city. specifically the housing and the economic and workforce development. community based organizations i work with aren't aware of your budget team and i'm unclear whether the meeting process is open and transparent and accessible. i am most gravely concerned about by the invitation-only closed-door meeting that took
2:11 pm
place in my district without input of the district supervisor or notice to the public. i would have been happy to partner with you on this outreach as you suggested in january. and i'm disappointed the opportunity was not offered to our office or the public. so, i appreciated your answer in january. i'd like to know what has come from these commitments you made? how are you followed up on the commitments to provide meaningful public input on the budget process? >> president yee: thank you. >> mayor breed: thank you, supervisor mar. i think your choice of words is unfortunate in this case. these were not closed-door, invitation-only meetings. these were meetings where we reached out to community leaders. we invited them in and in some instances, they invited other people to join us. this is the first that i'm hearing that there were concerns
2:12 pm
about specific departments based on whether or not a department had a commission, because in meeting with the constituents in your district in particular, that wasn't even a topic of discussion. the fact is, we reached out to a number of community-based organizations and leaders in various communities throughout each district and we also provided that information to members of the board of supervisors and in some instances, you know, members asked if they could participate in various capacities and in other cases, members made no comment. in addition to these meetings that we've been holding all over the city, we've also been hosting office hours. we've also -- also have a website where anyone from the community -- and we've actually translated this information into four different languages -- i'm sorry -- sf mayor.org 2019
2:13 pm
budget, so it provides an opportunity for anyone throughout san francisco to provide input into the budget process as well. our budget meetings with community-based organizations, leaders, merchants, our outreach to a number of other individuals who are not actively engaged in any program whatsoever, has led to really getting a lot of feedback, in addition to the meetings that the board is having every wednesday where our staff is listening in on hearing back from the community on what they want to see in terms of priorities. this is not happening in isolation. if there are suggestions or other things that -- [bell ringing] -- board wants to do with the office, we're happy to work with you to facilitate any meeting you have interest in. this is not a me versus you. this is about a process involving all san franciscans and making sure that the people who sadly, traditionally have
2:14 pm
controlled this budget, determines what happens, especially during the abprocess, that others at the table have not had an opportunity to voice their concerns and i'm still committed to that. >> president yee: supervisor mar, you may ask a follow-up question if you have one? >> supervisor mar: thank you, mayor breed. i definitely look forward to working with you more collaboratively on fostering more public input on the budget process. i had two more specific follow-up questions. the first one is how many neighborhood meetings did you host around the city budget? and were they publicly noticed and open to the public? and which district supervisors were informed and invited? and in the second question is, which departments without commissions solicited public feedback on their proposed budgets? and did that include mohcd, shh. >> president yee: you may
2:15 pm
respond, mayor breed. >> mayor breed: i held six budget town hall meetings and we reached out to specific persons. we didn't publicly notice -- because i'm not necessarily required to do what the board is in terms of publicly noticing meetings, depending on whether or not you have a quorum present, but we reached out to various members of the community. and as i said to you, as i said earlier, in some instances, other people reached out to other people to invite other people. so they were held in the districts. they were held in places where they were basically open to anyone to attend. not a lot of people attended, nor were they advertised like the town hall meetings, where we got a lot of feedback in what people wanted to see in budget priorities. i held one town hall meeting in march and plan to hold another in may. so those are just a few of the things we've been able to do, in
2:16 pm
addition to advertising the website or the e-mail address that i mentioned to you earlier, to solicit feedback from the public as well. if anyone wants to provide any input or information, or again, collaborate with my office on any other efforts, i am open to that, but we're fast approaching a point where i will be submitting a budget. and just to add, what has been made clear in conversations with a lot of the folks throughout communities in san francisco, they want to see us invest more in housing, especially housing for small business employees and nonprofit employees, who have difficulty being able to afford to live in san francisco. they want to see us invest more in helping the homeless, especially mental health services. many of the goals that i share are similar to what i've heard throughout the city. they want us to do more for
2:17 pm
small businesses that are struggling to survive in san francisco and they want us to invest more in neighborhoods. there is a long list of things that we've gotten from community feedback as a result of our conversations. and in most instances, it's the same things, clearly, throughout various neighborhoods. >> president yee: okay. great. mayor breed, you may now ask a question to supervisor mar or to any other supervisor in attendance pertaining to the same topic, but not necessarily related to the previous question. >> mayor breed: i'm good, thank you. >> president yee: oh, don't you want to ask. >> mayor breed: you want me to ask a question, president? >> president yee: no, no, you're good. so, let's see. this concludes the top of discussion. madame clerk, there is no other topic, so i want to thank mayor breed for joining us here today.
2:18 pm
this matter has been discussed and is now filed. okay. madame clerk, can you please read the consent agenda. >> items 2 and 3 are on consent. these items are considered to be routine, if a member objects an item may be removed and considered separately. >> president yee: colleagues, would anyone like to sever any items from the consent agenda? seeing none, please call the role for items 2 and 3. >> clerk: fewer aye. haney aye. mandelman aye. mar aye. peskin aye. ronen aye.
2:19 pm
safai aye. stefani aye. walton aye. yee aye. brown aye. there are 11 ayes. >> president yee: these ordinances are passed unanimously. madame clerk, go to regular agenda and call item number 4. >> ordinance to appropriate approximately $400,000 to overtime in the fire department, to deappropriate salaries and fringe benefits and capital projects. and to overtime in the san francisco public utilities commission to support the projected increases in overtime and pursuant to charter 9.113-c, it requires a two-thirds vote of the board or 8-vote threshold. >> president yee: can we take
2:20 pm
this same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance is passed unanimously. madame clerk. >> item 5 is resolution to adopt the city's 10-year capital expenditure plan for 2020 through 2029. >> president yee: before i call, supervisor fewer, i just want to make a statement. the city administrator respectfully requests for this item to be continued to next week so that she can be present. before we take a motion to continue, i want to recognize there is considerable interest in further updating the 10-year capital plan to reflect the ongoing parallel discussion we're having regarding the 2019 affordable housing bond. we will have the opportunity to
2:21 pm
have those discussions again when the bond comes before this body. but out of deference to the capital planning process, and in order to adhere to the administrative code, i hope that the version of the capital plan that is before us can pass next week. i intend to duplicate this file next week so we have a version we can work on at committee level. can i have -- before i take a motion -- oh. supervisor fewer? >> supervisor fewer: thank you, president yee. i just wanted to make a motion to continue this item. thank you. >> president yee: motion made by supervisor fewer, seconded by supervisor safai. this item is continued to the next board meeting on tuesday, april 30, 2019. climb item 6 is a resolution to
2:22 pm
authorize the general manager of the public utilities commission to execute an agreement with american water resources, awr, for residential and water sewer protection service and to authorize market an insurance program to customers in san francisco in exchange for payments per month to the sfpuc for each enrolled customer with anticipated revenue of $1 million to the sfpuc. >> president yee: same house, same call? this resolution is adopted unanimously. >> clerk: resolution to repair water and power transmission line near big creek shaft road, near groveland, california, not to exceed $400,000. >> president yee: $400,000? i'm sorry, what was the amount? >> clerk: $400,000.
2:23 pm
>> president yee: okay. that's right. colleagues, can we take this same house, same call. without objection, this resolution is adopted unanimously. next item. >> clerk: item 8, resolution retroactively authorizing the office of contract administration to enter into a contract with golden gate petroleum. for an amount not to exceed $45 million with two one-year options to extend and to require board of supervisors approval of each one-year contract extension that increases the amount by $500,000 and to authorize the increase to $60 million upon exercising the first option. >> president yee: supervisor safai?
2:24 pm
>> supervisor safai: yes, thank you, president yee. thank you, supervisor fewer, always for highlighting a lot of these items through the budget process. i just wanted to say on the record i appreciated that this contract was amended to allow for the board of supervisors to revisit this in a three-year time frame, rather than over the course of the entire contract. it is a large amount of contract to be purchasing, at this point, what is the most clean source of diesel fuel, but the technology is constantly changing and changing at a rapid pace. so we want to ensure we have the opportunity in a shorter amount of time to revisit the idea of having even more cleaner and renewable energy sources. this is $45 million contract that has the ability to go up to $75 million. it is essentially serving the mta, the puc and the fire department and public works. we want to ensure that the
2:25 pm
vehicles and the technology we have is the most up to date and we have the ability to revisit this in an appropriate manner. with all that said, i support this item. just wanted to go on record that i think it was the appropriate decision to amend the contract to allow us to revisit it in a shorter period of time. >> president yee: supervisor peskin? >> supervisor peskin: why didn't oca bring this prior to april 1st? >> supervisors, oca, we had originally planned to have this brought before you on the 1st of april, but because of various delays on our end, we weren't able to get the item before you on time. however, we did amend the current contract so we really don't need it to be as retroactive contract, so there is not going to be a gap in
2:26 pm
service, but as the item was presented, we already had the item before and the budget and the finance committee with the april 1st date. so from a contractual standpoint we don't need this to be dated april 1st, because we have the current agreement in place until the end of may. >> supervisor peskin: thank you. >> president yee: supervisor walton. >> supervisor walton: just a comment or a statement, at some point, can we get a list of what departments this effects? if we don't already have one? >> president yee: okay. request to who? >> sure. the oca can run a report and submit it to the clerk of the board to show you all of the releases that were done off the current contract.
2:27 pm
then if you like going forward, on the new contract, we can do it as a quarterly basis, semi-annual, annually, i don't know what, any duration as you like, but as we can certainly come back and report to you and the usage on the contract. >> president yee: supervisor walton. >> supervisor walton: just for clarity, i just would want to see a list, it can be annually, with the departments it affects. >> president yee: any other note? i see no other names on the roster. colleagues, can we take this item same house, same call? without objection, this resolution is adopted unanimously. madame clerk, call the next item. >> item 9. resolution approving
2:28 pm
modification number 2 to increase the amount by $5.5 million for a new total not to exceed $15 million and to extend the term by two years through august 25, 2021. >> president yee: same house, same call? without objection, this resolution is adopted. >> clerk: item 10, resolution to authorize the department of public health to accept and expend a $200,000 monetary gift from the richard and bonnie green survivor's trust to the laguna honda gift fund and support resident care programs. >> president yee: same house, same call? without objection, this resolution is adopted unanimously. >> clerk: item 11. ordinance amending the administrative code to require the department of homelessness and supportive housing to establish a safe overnight parking pilot program to provide eligible homeless persons a place to park and sleep in their
2:29 pm
vehicles overnight, to offer case management and other services, to require clap wages with the municipal transportation agency to develop an on site parking citation and tow and storage fee and to affirm the ceqa determination. >> supervisor brown: yes, thank you. i'm happy to see our ordinance to create very safe parking program reach the full board. i want to thank my fellow cosponsors. supervisor safai, fewer, stefani, mandelman, haney, walton for signing on. thank you to safai's office and special thanks to my aide. i want to thank the coalition on homelessness for working with my office every step of the way.
2:30 pm
and also the mayor's office for your support. this is a growing problem for all west coast cities and for san francisco. because of our housing and affordable housing crisis, this problem has gotten worse over the past decade. eight cities in california have similar programs and we should have one here. this legislation addresses the vehicular homelessness in san francisco by providing a location and social services so that the vehicular house can attend to their vital needs. prevent unnecessary harassment, towing and citations. provide a pathway to interim or permanent housing. first, it creates a vehicular triage center. what this does, it connects people to the system and provides access to hygienic
2:31 pm
facilities. it will triage folks based on their situation and direct them to the appropriate social service. this will also allow for problem-solving, whether a person needs a mechanic to move along or access to shelter. second, it creates a safe parking pilot program. we know that not everyone is going to get out of their vehicle immediately. it takes time to help people transition. this pilot will provide people a safe and secure place to park with access to case management and hygienic facilities for a longer period of time than the triage center. provide waivers or reduce parking fines and fees to eligible individuals. this is actually a preventive measure and a way to stop folks from ending up on the street.
2:32 pm
we need to start somewhere. we're seeking and we'll get this up and going -- we're seeking a site and we're going to get this up and going. i'm committed to seeing it happen quickly. i'm looking forward to working with my colleagues on the board, city departments and coalition of homelessness and the community to refine this program. i rest i submit. >> president yee: supervisor safai? >> supervisor safai: -- >> i didn't submit it, i'm sorry. i was back to introducing it. >> i was like, did she just introduce a substitute? okay, good. thank you, thank you, mr. president. thank you to my colleague, supervisor brown, for her endurance. it started almost a year ago when our district was being bombarded and mine and supervisor ronen's district were being bombarded with calls for rvs parking in our neighborhood. and we sat and talked to neighbors. we took some heat. we listened to yelling and
2:33 pm
name-calling, but also made a commitment to come up with a long-term solution. i want to thank the sfmta board of commissioners for working with us, the sfmta leadership. and all the people that supervisor brown thanked. former staffer kathy, your staff, shakira, and monica and all the folks in supervisor ronen's office and her team that worked on this. because this is something that has been vexing san francisco for over a decade -- for decades. and the coalition on homelessness and advocates. we looked at the best practices around the country. so i'm more than thrilled to be the main cosponsor on this piece of legislation. i also want to thank supervisor brown, because she also
2:34 pm
2:35 pm
2:36 pm
>> or some sort of alternative permitting program, but the situation that people living in their vehicles today are in, is unsustainable. we can't have people have -- who are just struggling to hang on, or one step away from being in a
2:37 pm
tent on the street, from constantly being fined and feed and towed and pushed and moved around. we need to come up with a bigger solution here. but i will say that i think this is an incredibly exciting first step in that process. and that if we can prove this model works, we can bring it up to scale. again, supervisor brown, thank you so much for taking this on and doing it with such thoughtfulness and perseverance. >> president yee: supervisor haney? >> supervisor haney: thank you, president yee. i also want to thank you, supervisor brown and supervisor safai, and everybody who worked on this in your offices. one of the things that was important to me that i learned when we talked about this in committee, there is real focus to address the needs of families who are experiencing vehicular homelessness.
2:38 pm
if we can get folks to come to the center, we can allow them to have a place to store their car, get them into a family shelter. that is a huge barrier that many families experience. and people in general, when they have their cars, they don't want to give it up, so they won't go in shelters available to them. in addition to having a safe place to park and receiving services there, this makes sure we can address an urgent need that families have as well. and to hear a lot of the folks that came in and talked about living in cars, rvs with their families, this is really going to be a critical need for our families and our kids who are experiencing homelessness, so i want to thank you for addressing that particular aspect of it. there is no doubt that homelessness doesn't look the same way everywhere in the city, or for any individual, and i think this reflects an urgent need, a creative solution to
2:39 pm
that. i also want to note that in the legislation that we've put forward around having navigation centers all over the city, this would be included in that. and i think it really reflects that what we do and the solutions that we put forward for different populations or different parts of the city are going to look different, but we need to respond with the same level of urgency all over the city. this will impact a lot of peoples' lives in a positive way and i appreciate your leadership and all of the cosponsors. >> supervisor mandelman: i'm going to echo the praise that has gone to supervisor brown, safai and the mayor on this and also to supervisor ronen, who i know has been hearing from her constituents for a long time and pushing forward with a response. what i appreciate about this, where i think supervisor ronen
2:40 pm
was going, what kind of engagement with the reality of this challenge. that we can't just, as folks have said, site our way out of the problem, or being pushing people from block to block, neighborhood to neighborhood. and actually, we need to engage with the realities of the human beings. as we look to continue to try to address the challenges on our streets, it's important we recognize that no one model is going to fit everyone, that we need diversity of approaches. traditional shelters work for some folks, not everyone. we need to get people into a better place. thank you for your consideration. >> supervisor walton: thank you, president yee. as a district that is extremely affected by people living in rvs
2:41 pm
and living in cars, i just want to commend everyone for working together on this legislation, and particularly supervisor brown and supervisor safai. we want to continue to make sure that we do everything we can to get people into people into permanent housing. that is the end goal. we know that some people don't have the opportunity today, so we should give them the support and the services they need, particularly if they have to live in certain situations like living in rvs and cars. so i want to thank you for being responsible to work on something that is going to provide the services they need. help us get people and set aside places where people can receive the services that will help them get guided toward fully housed, because that is the ultimate goal, but the reality of it is,
2:42 pm
we have work to do to provide more housing and make sure housing is affordable here in the city. but i know, just from conversations with people in community, they are happy to see that we are pushing something that will provide an alternative space for people who are living in vehicles. and looking forward to continue to increase those opportunities as we move forward. >> president yee: so, before i call supervisor brown, i want to thank you for bringing this legislation forward. for several years now, i've been thinking how we could solve or have a better solution than what we have now, which is for many years just always people asking, can we just say no parking here in certain areas? and after a while, just resisted that because all it did was just move the vehicles down the street somewhere.
2:43 pm
and given the -- actually trying to do it in reverse and trying to think of a place where something like this can happen, maybe simpler version of this, but i thought about the cal palace area that is hardly ever used and has a huge parking space there. and also my experience going to cal toward the end of my stay there, i ran out of money and stay in a car. so i can relate to the issues. at the time, berkeley had a parking lot for me to park safely. so one of the things i hadn't gotten a chance to ask -- maybe i did, but have forgotten -- but before i wanted to sign on, i wanted to understand better this whole thing with separating the
2:44 pm
vehicles, the cars from the rv section? can you explain that a little bit. >> supervisor brown: right. because we know that people were living in their cars, they're a little bit different than people living in an rv. most people that live in their cars are much more desperate. and a lot of them need services. the three groups that were prioritizing are families, seniors and anybody with disabilities. those are the first ones we're prioritizing. [please stand by] [please stand by]
2:45 pm
2:46 pm
>> we've been talking for years but haven't been able to do anything. we're starting small and i also think we'll be able to figure out what works and what doesn't. and adjust as we go. and we're starting with one lot, maybe two as we get the program going and realize what we need to do and what works, we can adjust and that's why this say pilot program. and -- is a pilot program. i think it's starting somewhere and we'll have to address people that are parking on the streets. i know the state is looking at not penalizing people and towing
2:47 pm
vehicles when you're living in them. so like i said, this is the first step and there's no one solution to homelessness so thank you. >> commissioner: okay. great. colleagues can we take same house, same call. without objection the ordinance passes unanimously. madame clerk, we're past our 2:30 time for recognition of accommodations. can we go ahead and go to that item. >> clerk: i have a request requested by president yee and supervisor peskin. >> commissioner: today, supervisor peskin and i will be honoring the genocide education project on honor of the armenian genocide commemoration day which we will be voting on later in today's agenda. the genocide education project provides a critical need by
2:48 pm
developing curriculum and work shops to educate the public particularly young people about the armenian genocide which is also known as the forgotten genocide. nearly half the armenian people were systematically murdered by the turkish government of the empire in 1915. the genocide education project's mission is to provide the tools and resources for educators across the united states so that this history and taught and remembered. we will never change the course of the future if we do not understand the patterns of the past. we will never despite the vast amount of evidence of the armenian genocide, it continues to be denied. those that have tried to raise awareness about this horrific
2:49 pm
account of our history often risk their lives. to this day it take courage to recognize armenian genocide remembrance day and we're workful for the work of the genocide project to ensure future generations carry the torch to assure atrocities like the armenian genocide or holocaust will never happen again. at this time i'd like to ask supervisor specific to share remarks. okay. he's good. now i'd like to invite roxanne makashian executive director of the genocide education project to couple and come up if you have a few words to say.
2:50 pm
>> after you'll need to get the files i have for you. >> thank you, supervisors. this commendation is very special to us because it was this body and this city that gave the genocide education project the support it needed to get on its feet now 15 years ago. this board has been steadfast for decades in fact of the reaffirmation of the armenian genocide and when we set out to help educators understand the significance of this particular moment in history, what scholars call the prototype for modern era genocide, it was the san francisco mayor and supervisors at the time who facilitated our collaboration with the san francisco board of education. that led to a yearlong project with the san francisco unified school district to create the first ever comprehensive seft high school lesson plans with
2:51 pm
step by step instructions on how to teach this topic including genocide as a phenomenon, the common stages found in all genocides and the armenian case as it arch type. i brought to show you today the first copy set of lesson plans we did with the san francisco unified school district and now of course we put much of what's in that in that binder and many more lessons on our website, genocideeducation.org. today with the school district we hosted our first full day pilot teacher training workshop here and because of it's success and the positive response we got from teachers, we never looked back setting our sights well beyond san francisco after that. we've given our workshops in many california cities and 15 other states now. we participate in the national council for the social studies yearly conference in a different
2:52 pm
city every year and also several other regional conferences including the huge one in california where we reach hundreds of new teachers every year. we've help california and several other states incorporate the armenian genocide into their state's education standards and this year the california department of education has asked us to create curriculum aligned with its new history framework and to help train its teachers on this implementation. so i firmly believe that the story i just told you would not have played out the same way or as well probably, had it not gotten its germ nation in this city and with this body with its principle convictions about this particular piece of history and the importance of providing our youth with an unadulterated education about the worse chapters of human history alongside the best. thank you very much. >> commissioner: thank you for your work.
