living in those 260 tents, in a residential neighborhood, right in front of businesses, all the way down to 30 tenths. we are now back up to around 80 to 100. we went weekly and attended what was the original h. sock in the mission district, which we piloted and created because our department wasn't fixing the problem in order to fix it. we went every single month for six months to demand, it every single time, we had to demand that the departments actually take action for our constituents both housed and un- housed. we open the first of its kind stay over program at a school in the mission district for showman of homeless children and families that were living in the street. and then the worst thing i have done since i have become supervisor, but i had no choice because when i asked the department of homelessness to deal with r.v.s in the portola

that were out of control, i was told by jeff kaczynski a year ago, they are not focused on r.v.s. that is not something they are working on. and i'm watching the mayor's own staff nodding their head right now because they know that is the truth. it is great because supervisor brown and others fought and fought to open the first of its kind 30 vehicle center, and it is finally happening, but the one to the department to ask for it year ago, they told us they had no plans to address r.v.s and they weren't going to do anything about it until, low and behold, it is up 60% in the city as a whole. i did not want to ban parking but i did because i couldn't get the department to act at all. so what is going on now and every other street in the portola, there are r.v.s lining the streets and the residents are complaining once again. we have no oversight or accountability for this

department and it has got to change. if you don't have a lot of homelessness in your district, i am so happy for you, i am so happy that people don't have to sleep in the streets of your district. i'm so happy you don't have to answer these e-mails on a daily basis, but i don't know what else to do for my constituents. i have done everything that i can think of. it is time that we have oversight over this departments our constituents can learn about what the city is doing, if you have noticed in this e-mail, they say what is the city doing? i don't know. i call 311 every day and nobody responds. they can learn about what the city is doing, and they can have a place to weigh in on the solution and to demand action from this city. this is a well thought out, reasonable policy. our constituents are demanding it. the three supervisors of the three districts, they are the vast brent of homeless people

sleeping on the streets and the services that serve those residents, and i can show you the statistics right here if you don't believe me, they are begging you to help us provide some oversight and accountability for this crisis that we and our constituents can no longer take. thank you. >> supervisor fewer? >> yes, i want to thank supervisor haney for bringing this forward. as a supervisor that actually has 60% of the homelessness in his district, he absolutely should have a voice in policy, but he also, i defer to him to know what is needed, and he has brought forth this legislation or this ballot measure, actually , to address some of the real issues that really need to be addressed that haven't been addressed. so i think i agree that everyone

-- with everyone that homelessness is a crisis in our city. i do not have 60% of the homeless population, a supervisor haney does. so supervisor haney, i want to commend you for working with the providers, people who are really on the ground doing the work every day. i know this was a very thought out -- it was actually very participatory with all of the providers, and i just want to say that for bringing a solution that you felt was really needed to help us with this homelessness crisis. i defer to your judgement, quite frankly, because as i said, you have the bulk of the homelessness in your district. i want to thank you for your leadership on this. thank you. >> supervisor mar? >> thank you.

i wanted to echo that supervisor -- supervisor fewer's comments and thinking supervisor haney and your staff, and also all of the community advocates for working on this really important measure for creating a homelessness oversight commission. i fully agree this is a common sense and incredibly important good government measure that we need to move forward, or at least put before the voters and allow them to decide on, and even though, you know, like supervisor fewer, i represent a district that is an extension isn't experiencing homelessness to the intensity. homelessness is a problem that affects all of our districts and every community here in the city we have a persistent and growing homelessness on the west side of the city that we are struggling

to address with the department and our constituents, and we also constantly -- i constantly get questions and communications in communications from my constituents about not just what i am doing around the continuing number of community members in the sunset district that are living in shelters, but what the city is doing to solve this issue. one of the two biggest issues confronting our city and our communities. i think our constituents and people on the westside want to see more oversight, or transparency, and more effective strategies on how we are addressing this problem. i fully support this measure. thank you so much. i encourage my colleagues who are on board, too. >> supervisor walton? >> homelessness is heartbreaking

it is definitely a complicated issue to solve, and we have worked very hard as a city to come up with strategies and policies that actually address the systemic issues that exist with our homeless population. but more and more, i think that we need to come up with solutions and come up with a strategy that provides for a government structure that provides policy support, as well as the transparency that is needed for people who are affected by homelessness, and by the things that are connected. therefore i am in support of supervisor haney's charter amendment." i . i also want to applaud the mayor 's office and my colleagues for a lot of the work that everyone is doing to address the homelessness crisis that we have

in the city, and it is a crisis. i want to thank the supervisors for all of their work on finding a place for people who live in vehicles, because just from the last homeless count, we know the homeless population has increased about 17% here in san francisco, and even more so in district ten. the biggest increase in district ten is people living in their vehicles. so with these great increases, and despite our efforts, the current structure of delivering homeless services in our city is not getting the job done. this is not because people are not trying, this is not because people are not working hard, but there are some things we need to work on to develop a better infrastructure with all the resources that we put into addressing homelessness to get even before the count, my office

alone would receive several e-mails, several calls a day from constituents developed -- demanding action and wanting us to do more to deal with this and address this dire situation. when we talk about the dollars we invest, we are making an affordable housing -- in affordable housing, these are great things we are working on together for solutions to make san francisco more affordable, but homeless issues are prevalent in our communities every single day, so our strategies have to address what is happening right now. i just want to say that as you have seen the demonstration from supervisor ronen in terms of all of the e-mails she is getting, all of the e-mails we get, and then there is the issue with the fact that 311 is determining how

we respond when we go out. we know surgeon communities don't call government as much as others, when we know surgeon communities don't have the time to call government and make complaints as much as others, but we do know where our homeless population exists because we have conducted counts and we are no where sponsors should be and where they need to be. i think the commission also will help assist with overseeing those types of ideas and the process by which we even decide to go out and dress -- address homeless encampments and address complaints because we will find it demonstrates higher populations of homelessness and how as individuals than what the phone calls may say 4311. the public has an extremely vested interest in allowing greater transparency and oversight over the department.

we are committed to tackling the crisis head on, and people need and want to help, but we also have to do this with full confidence without structured oversight. our residents are left to wait anxiously as a cement at least $300 million a year, was some good results, with some results that are, and disheartening. and this is really about good government and transparency. there is also the fact that this charter amendment continues to allow for the streamlining of navigation centers and emergency shelters during a declared shelter crisis. supervisor haney worked with the homeless provider community, he worked with colleagues, he has reached out to everyone in city leadership and came up with these amendments to the original legislation and the original charter amendment because we

understand that in times of crisis, we need to be able to make sure we can move fast, in this charter amendment also addresses that. i definitely don't have all the answers, i know we don't have all the answers, but transparency and governance, from experts who can be put on a body to help to address these dire issues that exist, disproportionately in certain areas of the city is important. i agree with supervisor mar. this is something that we can put in the voters' hands of the voters decide. i'm in full support of this charter amendment and we need this transparency and oversight, and the voters should be able to make this decision. [please stand by]

the vast majority of this

desperation and need is really taking place in your district. i support having a direct service provider at the table when it comes to setting policy and priorities for the department of homelessness and supportive housing, but i still have some concerns about the roles and responsibilities of those various advisory bodies that are already exist. i know that i mentioned this to you before and i'm very happy that you're looking at some of the solutions. and in a way, you're addressing it. there is other issues that i would have enjoyed bringing to the attention to make amendments to it, but i realize -- and this

is my fault -- i can't really make amendments at this point, because of the -- our dates. so, i'm kind of glad the mayor and the stakeholders have reached some key agreements of both -- to both continue to discuss the need of the critical changes for more responsive department as well as some immediate policy changes to improve the quality of peoples' lives right now. not after november and beyond. such as a change in the definition of homeless mothers. in support of that discussion, i really -- well, i'd like to make a motion to amend the date to march 3, 2020. this will provide us with the breathing room to get everyone to the table and develop a way

forward. it accomplishes the objective that we all shared to make our city's work to end homelessness permanently more effective for the maximum number of people. so i'm making a motion, colleagues, i hope you will consider this motion to move the date from november to march. and i would make that motion first. is there a second? second by supervisor mandelman. roll call. >> supervisor ronen: i would like to speak. with all due respect to you, supervisor yee because you're someone i respect tremendously, i've been working daily on this issue for close to three years as supervisor. i've been giving it my all. i have one of my three

legislative aides on this full-time. i don't know what there is to talk about. either we're going to have oversight in the department or we're not. i strongly oppose this motion. i think it is beyond time for us to act and to have oversight. and i want my constituents to know that i am fighting for them with urgency, that we need to put this on the november ballot so we can get this oversight department up and running and understand what this department is and isn't doing to solve homelessness. and to react to the impact that is happening on the daily lives of both housed and unhoused residents in the neighborhoods that are impacted on this. so i do not support this motion. i think we have to act with urgency. i think it is high time we have an oversight body for a department that has ever

expanding budget. ironically, it was the mayor who didn't support prop c because she said there wasn't enough oversight over the department. so how all of us are not supporting this department right now is absolutely beyond me. so i would encourage all of my colleagues to not support the motion to delay this to march and to act with the urgency that our constituents demand and deserve. >> president yee: supervisor mandelman? >> supervisor mandelman: thank you, president yee. i want to echo thanks to supervisor haney for the leadership you've provided on a number of issues, and particularly on the sea wall navigation center. i think that was a courageous act and the leadership that you provided there is something i think everyone in city hall should be grateful for. i would be grateful for more time on this, this commission. and although again with great

respect, i do disagree with one of the things that supervisor haney said about this commission. he said it is like commissions that exist throughout the city bureaucracy overseeing any number of departments. and this proposed commission is different in at least one very significant respect in my view, which is that every commission overseeing a department over which the mayor is ultimately going to be held accountable, has either an entirety all of its members made up of mayoral appointees or a majority. if you look at any of the commissions you named, from health, which is entire mayoral, to police which is 4-3 with the number of three folks pointed by the board of supervisors, but four people on that commission are appointed by the mayor. so the mayor has the ability to direct what is going on in departments that she is going to be held responsible for. i know who is accountable and responsible right now for what

happens in the department of homelessness and supportive housing. their names are jeff and london breed. i do not know and will not know who will be responsible for the activity that the department of homelessness and supportive housing if this charter amendment passes, because three people will be appointed by the mayor. and three people will be appointed by the board of supervisors and one person will be appointed by the controller to direct this department. i appreciate having a controller who exists above the fray, who mayor, and board of supervisor folks can turn to as an honest broker. the notion of 3-3 contest playing out at the homelessness and supportive housing commission where the controller is called upon to direct homelessness policy in this city strikes me as a profoundly bad idea. so i think that there may be a need for more sunshine and i think there were a number of issues that drove this proposal, some of which may be able to be

solved without a commission, some not. but i believe that we need more time on this and i think giving this until march makes a great deal of sense. >> president yee: supervisor haney. >> supervisor haney: thank you, president yee, and thank you for your comments and your leadership. i first want to respond to that now that it's being brought up. i appreciate your defense of the mayor and her power, but i think there needs to be important shared responsibility here in terms of our role. as you heard particularly with the e-mails that we get, the responses that we get from our constituents. you also understand we're also accountable to addressing homelessness. and for us to have that shared responsibility along with, i think, the greater commitment to accountability, the power of the audit that the controller has, i think that this balance which is very similar to the balance that was put in the proxy oversight committee is a more effective

balance for checks and balances. i think there is a lot of concerns about some of our current commissions, because if you have a director that works for the mayor and commission that oversees that director, that puts a lot of power in the hands of one person. so i do think we have shared accountability here. i do wish -- i will say -- that some of these concerns coming up today were brought to me earlier. we actually changed to have the 7th appointment be from the controller because of feedback from the mayor and took that forward. and nobody said that was the red line for them weeks ago when we had the power to amend it. so i do want to be clear that we have had months now of working on this for the mayor's office, for working on this for the department of homelessness, taking amendments, and i've unfortunately not received these kind of responses which we could have addressed before until

today. so i appreciate the comment that we need more time, but i would have liked to know this was your bright red line and you would rather have a stronger mayoral commission, a majority mayoral commission and that is what you would have preferred to have your support. as far as the motion for march, i do want us to be able to develop consensus here and i think it's important we're united. i also believe that is ready to go for november and would prefer it goes for november, but i want to hear from all of you, and obviously, if we don't have six votes for november, then we can continue to work together and i'll be committed to bringing it back next year if that's the direction we go. >> president yee: supervisor walton. >> supervisor walton: thank you, president yee. getting involved in public service, i understand that we

have to deal with several bureaucracies as we try to get the work done. and all of my experience in working in leadership and working with the city, i have never seen people excited for some reason about addressing issues right away. there is always people who feel we need more time. and that we should be given more time. and i am grappling with the more time thought process and the word crisis, because i know that they don't belong together. when we have a crisis, we have to do everything that we can to address that in its immediacy as much as possible. and for us to effect change and do the things we need to, we're going to be required to not ask for time, but ask for strategies

and solutions to some very hard issues that we all grapple with on a daily basis. i agree with you, president yee, because homelessness is a big issue for all of us in san francisco. and i know most of us list it as one of our top two priorities if not our number one. and it is not about any particular district versus another district, but i hope that it is something to be said that the districts that have the biggest populations of unhoused individuals are the very same people who are really fighting for this commission. i hope it's not lost on everyone that, yes, we're fighting for this commission, but we also provide a lot of the services to address unhoused individual's

needs here in san francisco, whether talking about navigation centers, whether we're talking about shelters, and that's because of all of our collective work. working together to address the issues that exist. but it is a very real reality that certain areas of the city are actually having to deal with more phone calls, more e-mails, more constituent complaints that are very real. some of us drive by this on our way to city hall every single day. we've made calls. we've had people connected to services and then the same situation continues to occur over and over and over. and so i just want to really re emphasize we are working hard to address homelessness and we have to have a sense of urgency.

sometimes we can't give more time. sometimes people have to work. i've never had a job where i didn't have to work hard at it and there are a lot of people working hard to do their job, i'm not saying they're not, i'm saying this will help us all work harder, work faster, to address a major crisis in san francisco. supervisor mandelman, i definitely just want to say in terms of your response about the makeup of the commission and appointments, the motion on the table right now does not address your concern. they're not one and the same, so again, i hope that you support the commission because this is something that we see as important and we see as something that will help us immediately address a crisis here in the city. >> president yee: supervisor brown.

>> supervisor brown: thank you. i just want to thank supervisor haney, because you've done a lot of work on this. and it's not easy. i know that. and supervisor ronen, i hear your frustration, and i've been there. i think, you know, rattled the chains together on a lot of the issues. and same with supervisor walton. these e-mails that you get, i get every day, too. you have to remember that i'm right by the civic centre in mid market which is actually being focused for, you know, for actually removing the homeless and a lot of times what we're doing -- i know supervisor mandelman and i have talked about it, we just push them from one area to another. and it's frustrating. when we were doing the vehicle navigation center, we had a pushback. we were told that there wasn't that many people living in cars. it took seven months to get it

through, which seemed like a long time for me even though we were changing police codes, but also i just felt like we did not get the -- we did not get the respect a lot of times from the department. and i felt that. and i think we all felt that. i do appreciate mayor breed giving us that funding even though we were struggling with the department. i feel that right now, for me, where is our oversight, our proxy oversight committee? that was something that was legislated and should be being formed right now, too. but i also want to make sure if we're going to do this and have a commission because it is a crisis, i want to make sure we do it right. and i know, president yee, you had mentioned that the advocates

were agreeing on pushing this to march. i, for me right now, i would probably like to see us have a little more time to make sure this is right. but i also want to see this department step up and especially for the supervisors that have the most homeless in their district. they have to be bold and step up. and also we have to be bold. i've been trying to get a navigation center in my district and it seems like every site i go to, it's not the right site. so i really feel that we need to get it right. and i support if advocates support to wait until march and let people -- and let's give them a countdown. i feel like if we give them a countdown and they say they're going to do it, let's hold

everyone accountable. but i thank everyone for your hard work. this isn't easy. and i'll be supportive as we go forward, thank you. >> president yee: so, we're recycling names. i want to give you a last chance, but can you make it brief, because we've been on this -- i know it's important, don't get me wrong. >> supervisor ronen: no, i understand. just that -- i appreciate all your comments, supervisor brown, and just that issue alone. the fact that you and supervisor peskin have been begging the departments to open up a navigation center, not one, not two, not three, not four, not five, but so many different sites in your district. the fact that the navigation center at 1515 south van ness, that i was successful in opening that they told me no until i went directly to mayor lee

myself. that is all proof that we need oversight. we have civilian oversight commissions for every single department in the city practically. why wouldn't we have one for a department that has frustrated beyond measure -- and i do want to back up and say, it's not that i don't appreciate the work of the department and don't understand how hard it is, because it's some of the hardest work out there, so this isn't to say that they're not trying or they're not working their tails off on a daily basis, but there are times where all of us have disagreed in very, very substantial ways with the leadership of that department. and why we wouldn't have an oversight department -- an oversight body made up of citizens to bring those disagreements to the public, to debate them out, to get answers that are transparent for our constituents about why they

refuse to do one thing or another, this isn't rocket science. this is a commission. it's something we have over every department. why do we have to wait and wait and wait when there is a raging crisis happening in our streets? when we know these commissions work over other departments? and when we got the point in time count showing a 30% increase in homelessness? despite the spending that we've increased every single year. despite the creation of a brand new department to supposedly fix the problem. why do matt haney and i have to create a solution to a broken mental health and substance use system because the department itself have ignored the problem for years? we're supposed to be legislators. we're not supposed to be physically building navigation centers and counting how many tents there are. that's supposed to be the department's work when supervisor mandelman said i know

who is responsible for this problem, it's jeff co-zin ski and mayor breed. that wasn't the case in district 9. i had to walk the streets and fix the problem with the 260 tents. and anyone will tell you that's what i had to do to get those done. it's not supposed to be our work, but because the department is failing, our constituents come to us and ask for answers and i'm not willing to tell them, sorry, i got no answers for you, there is no solutions, the people responsible for it aren't doing what they should be doing. that's not good enough for me. and we need this oversight body now. >> president yee: roll call, please. >> on the motion to amend the date to march 3. fewer aye. haney no. mandelman aye. mar no.

peskin aye. ronen no. safai aye. stefani aye. walton no. yee aye. brown aye. there are seven ayes and four nos with supervisor haney, mar, ronen and walton in the dissent. >> president yee: thank you. again, i want to thank everybody for this discussion and i want to say publicly, if it's not clear, that if nothing moves or very little moves in the next few months, then i am committed to supporting a commission for the march election. so, colleagues, right now, because we made this motion, we need to make a second motion which is to refer this item to the committee. so i'd like to make a motion.

is there a second? supervisor fewer? can i take this same house, same call? >> roll call. >> president yee: that's right, roll call. >> on the motion to send item 22 to committee as amended, fewer aye. haney aye. mandelman aye. mar aye. peskin aye. ronen aye. safai aye. stefani aye. walton aye. yee aye. brown aye. there are 11 ayes. >> president yee: motion passes. again, thank you, everybody. madame clerk, let's go to our next item, i believe number 23.

>> item 23 is a charter amendment for draft to change the name of the aging and adult services commission to the disability and aging commission to establish qualifications for three of the seats to change the name of aging and adult services to department of disability. to change the name of the living fund to the disability and aging fund at an election to be held on november 5, 2019. >> president yee: supervisor peskin? >> supervisor peskin: as i discussed earlier, i'm sorry for being argumentative, mr. president, but it is not uncommon for departments to use different names and their official names in the code or in the charter, for instance, code

says it's the department of public works, but rachel gordon rebanded it public works. the code says it's the department of the environment, but all of their letterhead says sf environment. the human services agency, i don't think exists anywhere in the code. couldn't we just tell the department they can change their name and put it on their letterhead and not going to the ballot? just asking. >> president yee: so this is a question. and besides changing the name of the department, changing the name to the commission and changing the qualification for certain positions to commission, when i asked the city attorney's office what do we need to do? and basically the answer was to, you need to bring it to the voters to change the wording in the charter. supervisor -- i mean -- deputy

city attorney givner? >> jon givner. that's right. supervisor peskin is correct that some departments have informally changed their names in how they present themselves to the public. to formally and legally change the name of a department that is created in the charter, requires a charter amendment. and certainly to change the qualifications for any seats on the commission requires amendment to the charter. >> president yee: and this was vetted with people from the community, in particular, the disability community where they really felt it was important for them to have this formally be part of the name, because of the services that the department provides. that's why i supported to move it forward to have the voters vote on this and to change the

name so that it reflects the services that actually provide. i don't think it's going to be controversial from the community's point of view. okay. so do we need roll call or can we take same house, same call? same house, same call. with no objection, then this -- >> mr. president, supervisor haney is not in the house. >> president yee: okay, roll call, please. >> on item 23, supervisor fewer aye. haney absent. mandelman aye. mar aye. peskin aye. ronen aye. safai aye. stefani aye. walton aye. yee aye. brown aye. there are 10 ayes.

>> president yee: okay. this chart amendment is submitted unanimously. next item, please. >> next item is item 24, ordinance to amend the administrative code to amend the program fund to lower rent in housing developments occupied by low-income senior citizens. >> president yee: same house same call? without objection, this ordinance is finally passed unanimously. next item. >> item 25 is ordinance to amend the administrative code to modify the san francisco city college financial assistance fund from which the city provides funding to the san francisco community college district to modify the membership of the oversight committee that makes recommendations regarding the uses of those funds. >> president yee: colleagues, can we take this same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance is finally passed. please call the next item. we're going to go to 29.

>> item 29 is ordinance to approve the health service system plans and contribution rates for calendar year 2020. >> president yee: colleagues, can we take this same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance is passed often the first reading unanimously. madame clerk? >> next item item 30, the resolution to approve agreement between public works and j.c. decaux for automatic public toilet with anticipated revenues of $13 million and 21.5 year term to affirm the ceqa determination. >> president yee: same house, same call? this ordinance passed first reading unanimously. >> item 31 is a resolution to authorize the office of the treasurer and tax cleollector t

>> president yee: roll call, please? >> supervisor safai: i just wanted to say quickly, i wanted to thank the budget committee, all the members of the committee that worked on this. when this initially went out, it was the first week i was in office and there was gross underestimation of the work that would be done. the city will retain ownership over this property, 3545 onondaga, but two wonderful non-profits. a free clinic and another is the arts organization that is helping to bring more arts into the neighborhood, will be based there. this is not your traditional $1 a year lease. they're actually playing a little bit below market rate. in exchange for that, they're doing a significant amount of tenant improvement to the building.

each will spend $10 million each, but they will get a long term lease. in part of the deal, the city is bringing the property up to essentially to shell usage. they're going to get it to the spot that the tenants can do the tenant improvements. again, i want to thank everyone for support. thank the mayor office and budget chair for supporting and putting the additional funding in the budget to bring this project whole. and the nonprofit organizations are expanding clinic by the bay for their determination and hard work to get this done. thank you, colleagues. i urge your support. >> on item 37, supervisor fewer aye. haney aye. mandelman aye. mar aye. peskin aye.

scott rieber and our controller, mr. rosenfield and ted eagan. amanda faried. assembly member tinge. and our association in sacramento getting the bill passed to all the folks from the transportation task force 2045, who came up with this recommendation a few years ago, back when ed lee was still amongst us. and most particularly, i would like to thank my long suffering chief of staff, sunny, for her incredible work on this and now is time to turn it over to the voters and hopefully two-thirds of the electorate will see fit to do what portland, massachusetts, new york, and others are doing that can go into pedestrian safety improvements, the likes of which many of us attended a gathering

this morning that supervisor haney held with regard to the pedestrian fatality yesterday. the second one in the tenderloin in a week. and money can also be used for muni operations and capital. so i commend it to you and thank you all once again. >> president yee: okay. i believe -- same house, same call? without objection, this motion is approved unanimously. item 39 is ordinance to amend the business and tax regulation code to increase the daily transient tax exemption amount from less then $40 to less than $52, to increase the weekly tax exemption from less than 100 to less than $130 and require review in september 2022 through 2024 time frame by the controller of the exemption amounts from the -- for the purpose of considering adjustment in those amounts.

>> president yee: colleagues, can we take this same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance is passed on first reading unanimously. >> item 40, ordinance to amend the administrative code to prohibit city funded travel to states that have enacted laws that prohibit abortion. prior to the viability of the fetus and to prohibit city contracting with states that have enacted such laws where work on the contract would be performed in such states. >> president yee: supervisor brown? >> supervisor brown: this ordinance would limit city funded travel to states that pass abortion bans. this legislation is drafted in the spirit of the ground breaking chapter 12x ordinance, article i, of chapter 12x currently places a ban on city funded travel with city contracts, with states that pass

anti-lgbtq laws. i'm grateful for this legislation, its authors and the community leaders for paving the way. we've added a second article to the extending code chapter. it will expand existing ordinance to states that have waged war on our constitutional protective right to an abortion. today, i'm asking that you join me. let's make a stand for the reproductive rights of women, transgender and nonbinary people. let's fight back against states limiting access to abortion care. let's make sure that the economic might of san francisco is in alignment with our social values. it's time to walk the walk. let's put our money where our mouth is. again, thank you to our community for lending your voice in support of this legislation. i also want to thank our city administrator, planned parenthood of northern california and the department of the status of women for your collaboration. colleagues, thanks for standing with me on this legislation.

i am proud that all 11 of us are unified on this legislation and standing -- and sending a strong message to those who challenge reproductive freedom and limit gender, racial and economic equality. i appreciate your support. >> president yee: thank you, supervisor brown. i assume we can take this same house, same call? this ordinance is passed on first reading. >> item 41 is ordinance to amend the planning code and zoning map to create the ocean view large resident district to promote neighborhood character and affordability by requiring conditional use authorization for large developments in that district and to affirm the ceqa determination and make the appropriate findings. >> supervisor safai: thank you, president yee. again, this is another thing that has been a couple years in the making.

we've had a surge in our district, the number of people that were taking advantage of the market, buying single-family homes. putting in plans and proposals for maybe a few bedrooms and baths. and then turning it into 14-bedroom, 12 baths all on suite. many times this was done after the fact, or putting forward a plan for a bathroom expansion or kitchen expansion. that would be one side. the other side, it was all out in the open. and they were putting forward plans that were just turning these smaller homes into dormitories. this part of our district is book ended by city college. and san francisco state. the way we drew this special use district also includes part of president yee's district and we worked with his office on that. and the intent actually is for the first time when you're doing development and you're putting forward proposals into the city,

that you're actually using a florida area ratio when building a family home. and we came up with the proposal that encourages more accessory dwelling units. we actually want that to happen in these instances and we give what we think is a fair amount of square footage. if there is not going to be an accessory dwelling unit, but you must go beyond that, then we encourage and promote an accessory dwelling unit being added. this is something that was done in strong coordination and consideration with many stakeholders in my district. my neighbors in action, heights leaders, many of the folks over in the lakeview area, because this was ground zero. we had it for a larger portion of the district, but we scaled it back to look at how this will play out in the portion of the neighborhood. we believe it's a fair way. we believe it will allow for

speculators to stop speculating on these homes, but also to encourage when they do, and if there is the need for extended family situation, we take in consideration of that, but we ask there to be a look for -- i know supervisor mandelman has the same things happening in his district, where people are creating these monster homes that are completely out of character in their particular context. this does not discourage more density, in fact, it encourages it, but does it in a reasonable and thoughtful way. we talk about bathrooms, we talk about bedrooms. some is enforcement with dbi. help and planning department oversight, but we've seen a shift in some of the proposals that are coming in. i want to thank sue haas from my office. she spent two years listening to me talk about this. the city attorney office for all their hard work. and judy and others for really

working hard to get this right. we appreciate the hard work that they put into this. colleagues, i thank you and hope that you will support me on this proposal. >> president yee: okay. colleagues, can we take this same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance is passed on first reading. item 42 is an ordinance to amend the planning code to modify building standards. >> president yee: supervisor mandelman. >> supervisor mandelman: thank you, president yee, and thank you to the members of the land use committee for considering this legislation and forwarding it. since the land use committee did that, concerns have been raised about provisions of the legislation dealing with 311 notification. i heard those concerns from a couple of colleagues. i would -- i am going to move to continue this for one week to give me an opportunity to work with those colleagues on the

resolution to that concern? >> president yee: motion to continue this item to the next meeting? okay. on july 30. seconded by supervisor ronen. with no objection, then the motion passes. number 43. >> item 43 is ordinance to amend the planning code to revise the nct moderate scale neighborhood commercial district controls to allow arts activity, philanthropic services and public services and to revise the upper market controls to allow arts activities and institutional use and modify requirements for liquor stores and bars and to affirm the ceqa determination and make the appropriate findings. >> president yee: same house, same call? without objection, this ordinance passed on first
