sure you have some mapped out, it would help to have context so wwe can see how you're viewing the numbers associated with the goals. >> commissioner gerardo. >> i would like to follow that from what commissioner green was saying. under the health impact, let les say, decreasing the vaping. decreasing the middle-school students who drink one ssb yesterday, ssb sold in san francisco, how? i just, again, looking at the metrics, i understand those are great goals, but, then, again, with as i had mentioned in a conversation with you, with the high school studente students iu

can't go to the bathroom in the high schools because they're so full of smoke. so how, in fact, are you going to operationallize the -- what the goals are here? if you can get back to us. >> so just to let you know, in terms of that specific topic, we presented an in-depth presentation to the committee just a few weeks ago and so we can make sure that you have the slides, because that slide goes into detail in terms of our tobacco control efforts.

>> the article is in press and hopefully it will come out shortly and we'll make sure you get a copy. >> then i'm wondering, if, in fact, we are such a high rate of vaping in the state, that was of 2018 -- >> right. >> -- do you think or you have been able to measure whether or not any of the information now being put out to this population has reduced the amount of vaping? >> you're asking a really good question. i think -- i mean, there's two

major epidemics and one is in ecigaretting and juuls and there's cannabis and people -- because the national outbreak is primarily from unregulated cannabis products. and so both of these are happening and most people use more than one product. so oftentimes people are using both cannabis and nicotine. and so i think we're just at the beginning of trying to understand how we're going to deal with the nicotine. if when you look at the slides, you can see that we were really low on tobacco and all of a sudden, in other parts of the country it's worse, it's up to 1-4 kids. we do have a work group right now that's meeting to figure out what we'll do next and i don't have a good answer at the moment, other than the first

thing -- actually, let me back up. the first thing we'll do is we'll implement the ecigarette ban just like for flavours and menthol, week implement the ecigarette ban because proposition c lost 4-1 and that allows san francisco to move forward. same with the mental and flavour ban, we'll do it with esignature repeats. that's our major focus in terms of retail and access. >> thank you. >> commissioners, any other questions? >> thank you, commissioners and thank you dr. eragon and your leadership in the division. i think it's important we look at not only the clinical side of the department but the population health side and one thing to emphasize with a focus on behavioral health and you see in the health impact six areas, behavioral health, historically, the department has not focus on

the other hand a population approach to behavioral health and i think you heard them talk about that a couple of weeks ago. and dr. eragon has brought his team forward to take an approach to across the department in approving our clinical system. so in hearing the questions about implementation in how one moves from point x to point y in terms of outcomes, i do wonder, then, this goes back to dr. bennet's presentation, having a little more detail about how that blood pressure goal was achieved and sort of the steps and the discoveries that were made across the organization over that period of time. i think that would potentially be interesting because i think the lessons learned -- that chart took a lot of work. i would like to say what gets measured gets managed and that's a part of it, but it changed the church and there were a lot of

unexpected learnings in that process, as well. the commission looks and holds us accountable for the outcomes and taking the lessons learned and applying them from nicotine addiction to, you know, some of the behavioral health issues that we'll be looking at. just as we often use hiv as being the forefront of teaching us how to do better, i think that the blood pressure success that we've had in the department, across our clinics, could really help inform some of these implementation questions that have come up today. so just a thought and i will certainly talk to the commissioners and mark about potentially putting that on the agenda if that's something of interest. >> thank you, doctor. >> maybe i ask a question. when do you think it would be best to come back to the commission with more specifics on the metrics? i'm wondering a time frame.

>> either every six months or quarterly, whatever the committee likes. some comes into the public health committee, too. thank you. >> thank you. >> item 9 is the fiscal year '18-'19 fourth quarter financial report, mr. wagner. >> good evening, i'll be brief. i'm reporting on the results of our fourth quarter for the prior fiscal year. this one, our year-end report is later than the other quarterly

reports but we have to go true the year-in closing process and the numbers are moving. and in case, w addition, we pust back but this is late and in some sense, no way around it. our year-end bottom line is a $96.5 million favorable general fund balance. there are a number of pieces that are moving around this balance, but there i this is a r overall and consistent with the reports at the second and third quarters. we've had strong revenue, particularly at zuckerburg san francisco general hospital and we have been close to expenditures on budget, so this year-end performance really allowed us to contribute fund balance that went to balancing the budget and went to funding the improvements that we received in the budget for the current year and the upcoming fiscal year. so all of our financial

performance on the budget work together to the city's benefit and the department of public health's benefit. and so we had a $96.5 million year-end balance. that is net of $26 million of expenditure carry forward and we're also depositing $40 million into our management reserve and that is $40 million of revenue that we budgeted in the current year but received earlier than expected. so rather than allowing that to just fall to general fund balance, we put that in reserve so that we can have it to use in this year, which is the year that the revenues were budgeted. and so when you net those all out, that's about an $82.5 million number and we net that out so that you can see an apples to apples comparison in the third quarter and that's what you see on the second slide.

so 82.5 is the number to marie tcompareand we're 9.$8 million r than we were at the third quarter report. so not a big swing, but it is a positive favorable. the third quarter was used to balance the city's budget and had an additional $8 million will be netted with all of the positives and negatives from other general fund departments and that will be folded into the projected deficit released by the mayor's office in mid-december for the upcoming budget cycle. so i won't go through all of these divisions in detail, because i know it's late and a lot are consistent with what we saw in the third quarter. but our biggest net driver of our surplus is zuckerburg san francisco general hospital and that is in particular our net

patient revenues and we saw and discussed earlier in the second and third quarter financial reports that were significantly above budget in the revenues that's due to a couple of factors and the first is that our census has been higher than budget on average over the course of the year and so that means additional expense but also additional revenue from patient billing. and secondly, the pair mix of that revenue has been more favorable than budget and that means a higher than budgeted proportion of commercial medicare and medicale versus uninsured or lower paying sources and that's not a policy decision. it's the way that things just kind of vary overtime depending who comes through the doors, particularly in the emergency department and that is a little bit of good luck and then finally we have for the last year or so have had a little bit

of a structural under-budgeting of revenues where we've seen sur mrs. *surpluses and we've made n adjustment and the mayor and board of supervisors submitted so we should be closer to our actuals in the upcoming year. laguna honda had a $10 million surplus and that's due to hire than budgeted per per dium rate.

i'm happy to answer any questions but i'll skill through the slides because of time and i'm just note a couple of things. again, all of this has been assumed in the budget or will be assumed in the five-year financial plan presented by the mayor's office later this month. we, despite having a significantly positive revenue bottom line, our expenditures are close to budget, for the size of the variance and expenditures we're cutting it close and we're watching that closely. we have a legally adopted expenditure limit in the budget passed by the mayor and board of supervisors and we have to live within that budget.

so we are, i think, putting the right controls in place to make sure that we don't exceed budget and that we're able to move funds between divisions as needed to balance across where our priorities are. and then lastly, as i said, we deposited $40 million into our management reserve under the admin provisions of the budget ordinance. we started with a balance of 80.$9 million and with this additional 40, we'll be at 120.9. so that is, i think, over the past several years, a very positive financial development for us, both for the ability to weather revenues that are patchy over the years and also sets us up much better than we have been in plier years i prior years ine have a significant recession or large-scale event affecting or finances.

so that's a positive to manage our budget and be prepared. so i will leave it at that. again, happy to go into more details o on any sections from e report. >> commissioners? commissioner chow. >> thank you for another good year in reporting and improvingg clarity. what i wanted to ask was on the management reserve, is any of that part of and is to pay for epic or is that a separate fund that we have been accumulating? >> so that's a separate fund. so for epic, and i think what you're referring to is we did two things that were kind of policy decisions and preparation for our ability to fund epic and also guard against financial risk. the first was this management

reserve and what this does is reserves against risk of future revenue loss or uncertainty and it's not quantifiable to meet a reserve to go through and audit and it's a judgment call, a management call about the risk. so we've established that. the second is the fund that we sed uset up for the epic budgetd we were to take a portion of that good news and move it into the epic project to help fund that and the two are related in that they both draw on favorable year-end news to fund future risk or the ehr as a priority, but they are separate funds. >> so under this, just to have one followup, then, nothing is going to epic from this surplus

and it's all going into the management reserve? >> within the $40 million, it's going to the management reserve and that will be in the management reserve. within the budget that we have adopted and within the financials that you see in front of you, there is a transfer, a budgeted transfer into the ehr and we had budget and equal actuals. so we made a budgeted transfer into the ehr project but that was done through the regular budget. it wasn't doing this, take the year-end surplus and allocate it to the epic project. >> so that was already within our current year, the fiscal year budget. >> correct. >> so there is additional funding. there is funding for epic that will sustain at this point. >> that's correct. >> within budget, of course. >> that's right, yes. >> thank you. >> commissioner green. >> thank you very much for the presentation.

i just have one question for clarification. you know, we've talked a lot about staffing and especially as we expend the behavioral health services and there was a line in this report that said the department is taking additional measures to monitor and control spending, including additional approval for proposed new hires. i wonder if you could maybe explain that in the context to of our our underlying concern that we can have great programs but we can't fill the positions. >> absolutely. department wide, we had a salary budget of a revised budget of $746 million and we had actual year-end salary expenditures of $746.9 million, so we're

essentially at our salary budget. and so what that means is not that we are restricting our reducing positions. it just means that we have to prioritize which positions we choose to hire so that we make sure we're getting the highest priority positions build versus the ones that may be a lower priority. so we do have to abide by when the board passes a budget, we have to abide by the limits of the expenditure authority that we're granted and we have a couple of tools tha tool tools. we manage across divisions where there's a surplus in one division that that allows flexibility to meet priority areas of hiring. the second is, a lot of the areas in particular with hiring that we're talking about, the net impact is really not an issue on our financials and in

particular, what i'm referring to with that, is that the hospitals, we have a lot of vacant positions but we have staffing ratio requirements and so we need to fill those shifts and we need to do it with permanent positions or with per diems or registry because we need to meet the state-required ratio. in those cases, when we're hiring into a vacant position, that's not costing us. there's a difference between a permanent position and the registry or per diems but they're similar and we're aggressivery trying to hire into those positions because we want those positions filled and we want to have the stability and we want the opportunity to fill as many shifts as possible with permanent staff who are familiar with the hospital who are working regular shifts, et cetera. so even though we're at budget, there are a lot of areas that

we're very aggressively trying to hire permanent positions within the budget that we have. >> thank you. >> dr. kolfax? >> i just wanted to acknowledge greg and his team, leadership in this work. they make it so clear that they risk making it seem easy and it's not. [ laughter ] >> and i just think that, you know, with regard to the financial stewardship of the department, greg and his team have demonstrated excellence in this area and i want to acknowledge that. thank you. >> thank you, mr. wagner. >> commissioners, other business is the next item? and just a reminder that the next meeting is at the laguna hospital and you're now at a vote for ajourning the meeting. >> moved. >> second.

>> second. >> all those in favour? >> meeting is adjourned. [♪] >> i just wanted to say a few words. one is to the parents and to all of the kids. thank you for supporting this

program and for trusting us to create a soccer program in the bayview. >> soccer is the world's game, and everybody plays, but in the united states, this is a sport that struggles with access for certain communities. >> i coached basketball in a coached football for years, it is the same thing. it is about motivating kids and keeping them together, and giving them new opportunities. >> when the kids came out, they had no idea really what the game was. only one or two of them had played soccer before. we gave the kids very simple lessons every day and made sure that they had fun while they were doing it, and you really could see them evolve into a team over the course of the season. >> i think this is a great opportunity to be part of the community and be part of programs like this. >> i get to run around with my other teammates and pass the ball. >> this is new to me. i've always played basketball or football. i am adjusting to be a soccer mom. >> the bayview is like my

favorite team. even though we lose it is still fine. >> right on. >> i have lots of favorite memories, but i think one of them is just watching the kids enjoy themselves. >> my favorite memory was just having fun and playing. >> bayview united will be in soccer camp all summer long. they are going to be at civic centre for two different weeklong sessions with america scores, then they will will have their own soccer camp later in the summer right here, and then they will be back on the pitch next fall. >> now we know a little bit more about soccer, we are learning more, and the kids are really enjoying the program. >> we want to be united in the bayview. that is why this was appropriate >> this guy is the limit. the kids are already athletic, you know, they just need to learn the game. we have some potential college-bound kids, definitely. >> today was the last practice of the season, and the sweetest moment was coming out here while , you know, we were setting

up the barbecue and folding their uniforms, and looking out onto the field, and seven or eight of the kids were playing. >> this year we have first and second grade. we are going to expand to third, forth, and fifth grade next year bring them out and if you have middle school kids, we are starting a team for middle school. >> you know why? >> why? because we are? >> bayview united. >> that's right.. >> good to have you here. welcome. i am the s.f.o. airport director. thank you all for being here. thank you. [ applause ]. >> thanks so much. you know, it's a pleasure to welcome everyone here today. this is such an important day and we're so excited to celebrate this unveiling and recognition and commemoration of our late mayor. we're so pleased to have the

family here of ed. thank you, anita, to have you here, ed's wife. ed's daughters tania and rihanna, welcome to both of you, and natasha, the granddaughter, is also here, welcome. pansie for being here, thank you for being here. 94 years young and she traveled from seattle to be with us today along with other members of the family. i understand ed's brothers and sister are here, edmond and manny, welcome and thank you for being here. it is a real honor for me to be here as well as the airport director and to celebrate this wonderful commemoration of our

late mayor ed lee and his life time and legacy. such an important place to have this commemoration. this is an appropriate dedication to our late mayor, as he was such a driving force in connecting our city to the rest of the world for business as well as cultural enrichment. he was so supportive and proud of our efforts to create such an amazing passenger experience and create the standard of a world-class airport. he would say he wanted everyone to feel like you were walking through a five-star hotel lobby when you travel through our airport. i think we achieved that vision. with a coalition of asian-pacific community organizations, the airport coalition wanted to honor the mayor and formed a special advisory naming committee. their job was to review the various proposals befitting of the honor that was proposed of

our late mayor. i have to say it was a truly engaged and collaborative process. the committee came up with a unanimous recommendation to the airport commission, which also received unanimous approval for the airport commission which received permission from the departure hall in his honor. [ applause ]. >> you know, there was community involvement in this and we created a special advisory panel, including anita and members of the committee that were helping guide the implementation of the various elements of what this honoring of our late mayor would be, including the wood wall which we will get to see a little later on, including this mural behind me, which in the future will be replaced with a plaque, as well as a statue and a video about ed

and how important he was to the city and county of san francisco. it will be this lasting commemoration in our airport of the extraordinary significance our late mayor ed lee had on the city and county of san francisco. with that, i thank you all for being here today. it is my pleasure to introduce the 45th mayor of san francisco, who served out the remaining term of mayor lee and who we all congratulate on her victory to a full four-year term as our mayor, welcome, mayor london breed. >> mayor breed: thank you, ivar. i'm really excited to be here today, especially with members of the lee family, members of our airport commission, and people that i served with on the board of supervisors when ed was our mayor, president of the board of superviseors, thank yo,

supervisor yee, for being here. when mayor lee was mayor, we were like his kids. we really were. we would go into his office. we would ask for things all of the time. in most instances, he was almost always so supportive. he cared about this city. he cared about the people of this city. he cared about doing good things for san francisco. when i first sat down with him as supervisor and told him that public housing was my priority, of course we bonded over our shared experience of growing up in public housing. he said, yes, we will work to make the condition of residents and public housing better. i will tell you since i've been mayor, we've been going to a lot of those public housing

developments where the promises of our city have been fulfilled and the conditions have changed significantly. it's because of his leadership and his work and his love and care for people. [ applause ]. >> mayor breed: his work for our public school system and our children, his work for public safety and for making sure that we are a city that focuses on making the right decisions, especially for future generations. you know, most mayors wouldn't say this, but since i've been mayor, i am really a beneficiary of all of his hard work. so when i go and i do those ribbon cuttings.

when i go and we're saving buildings that mayor lee put in motion with funding and support, i know it's because of his hard work that we're able to make people's lives better. i only wish, i only wish that he was able to be here with us to see what an amazing job he did for the people of san francisco. [ applause ]]. >> mayor breed: so many of his friends are here, people who worked and served with him, people who loved and supported him. again, i want to thank the lee family for just your continued support of san francisco, your continued involvement in the things that we do to improve the

lives of people in san francisco. this is at least legacy. i along with other emerging, elected officials, we are part of his legacy. the work that we did together in san francisco has really transformed our city and put us on the right path to continue to improve san francisco so it is fitting, as we dedicate the international airport to mayor lee to just also remind ourselves of the work that he did, but as the first chinese-american mayor in san francisco's history, the man was like a rock star. he was like a rock star. [ applause ]. >> mayor breed: now, ed didn't need a lot of attention, but i didn't let him not get the

attention he needed. i remember when we went to china, we went to beijing and shanghai, and so many people with their cameras and everything else and just -- i mean, you would have thought that it was beyonce and j.z. it was mayor lee getting love and to smile like it wasn't a big deal. i would tell him to soak it up and not get excited. that was his personality. he didn't need the attention or the fame. he was about the work. he was about the results. he was about the people. as we honor him here today, it is only fitting because he was an international figure, that when people come to this city, the first thing they see is mayor ed lee greeting them. when people leave this city,

they can see the same thing. it's the impression that they get, and that is that he was an important figure for the city and county of san francisco, so much so that he is acknowledged in such a significant way. thank you all for being here. thank you all to a lot of the airport workers that are here, the family, the people from the african and chinese communities, people who have come from far and wide to honor someone who was really -- such an incredible figure and incredible inspiration, and has done a lot to set our city on the right path. so it is only fitting that we honor him in this way today at the san francisco international airport. his legacy will continue to live on through us. thank you.

>> it is now my pleasure to introduce a former president of the board of supervisors. he worked with mayor lee on many issues. a warm welcome for california state assembly member, david chu. >> good morning, san francisco. this is a san francisco day. i was thinking of how to start my thoughts, and maybe i would start with the following which is i am going to be short because he was and i am. thank you all for being a part of the community of san francisco and so many of the community leaders who led to this day, to this wonderful naming dedication. of course we want to salute

anita and your family for your family, your sacrifice, and your love. all of us have countless memories of the mayor, and i'm going to relay just a few quick ones. it was exactly ten years ago to the day that i was in this international terminal with then-supervisor chu and mar. the three of us were the first chinese supervisors to serve together. we were heading on a good-will trip to southern china. we were joined by members of the chinese chamber, some of who are here. what was historic about that event for me ten years later is that we were joined by one incredibly competent, selfless, humble, and smiling city administrator, ed lee. i remember on that trip, those of us who were elected officials, we were new to our roles.

we observed him as he interacted with our diplomatic counterparts, as he brought good will from this city, as he fosters economic and social ties with other parts of the world. that is the ed lee that became mayor that we honor and respect today. a second memory involving this very airport. the first week the current occupant of the white house was inaugurated. he issued an executive order that said that airports were about to become the site of his new walls to keep out refugees. i'm going to quote something that mayor lee said because he was always so mild minored, but not on that day. as the son of chinese immigrants, i am disgusted by the president's executive order to target muslim communities, to ban immigrants from entering the

united states. these actions are a direct betrayal of our american values. we were also proud of him on that day because for our former mayor, it is important for him to lead a city where love trumps hate, where civility trumps rudeness. mayor lee stood for everything that is good about compassion and tolerance for all of our diverse communities. [ applause ]. >> let me end with my final memory of mayor lee, as anita knows. you and your husband like to make fun of me for not having a kid. i regret that my son lucas will not get to know uncle ed lee. what i can tell you is because of this photograph, because of this naming decision, we will

have millions of kids from around the world, from china, from asia, from africa, from latin american and europe who will come through these halls and say i'm the child of immigrants, but maybe some day i can run a city. i am the son of a cook and a se seamstress, but maybe some day i can run a city. mayor lee has given us hope in our future. that is why we are here today and that is why it is wonderful to be part of our san francisco community. thank you so much and god speed.

>> and now my pleasure to welcome up a district 4 supervisor turned supervisor by mayor lee. please welcome carmen chu. >> hello, everybody. so happy to be here with all of you and to see this day come forward. so many people who are here today from all different parts of mayor ed lee's life, his family, the community who loved him, and of course the city's family who adored him and saw him as a mentor for many of us. i think the trip that we took was spoken about. when you travel with him, just like in relationships, they say it really reveals someone's true character. can you travel well together, were they fussy, were they hard to get along with, and so on.

i have a memory of mayor ed lee on that trip. on that trip we were walking through these beautiful gardens where you can see the scenery around. i see our mayor who wasn't mayor at the time, who was a city administrator, and he was looking at the trash can. he was looking at the trash can to understand whether the design of the trash can was something that we should mimic and bring back here to san francisco. so i think revealing the character that was our mayor and i think the family knows this too for all the times he brought you out to do cleanups, our mayor cared about the details to run the city and run it well and he did so with every part of his life. he could have been doing

something different, but he was looking at a trash can. the mayor that i knew and the one that all of us came to love came from humble beginnings, someone who has struggles in the family, who didn't have very much, where you saw your own family struggle with the language, and where somehow, some way, you became a lawyer who advocated for civil rights to make sure that injustices were not something that could be tolerated in our community, to be someone who cared about how we run our city for the benefit of the public, he became the mayor. one of my proudest moments as a daughter of immigrants was walking down the hall in the rotunda after selecting ed lee to be our mayor. that was probably one of the best votes i ever made as a

supervisor. if there was one thing i could have left behind as a legacy would be that i selected and supported that san francisco had our first chinese mayor. [ applause ]. >> as we're gathered here today to watch this unveiling and to see all of this, i think it brings us hope and pride, david spoke about this earlier, all of the people who will come through the san francisco international airport, all of the people who will look up and say who was this person and how was this person relevant to san francisco, and say i'm walking through this place, an international city, a place that sets the world's trends and to know that this man not only moved san francisco forward, but that he is a man who enexpires so many generations to come. my parents cooked in restaurants

and they're proud that we have a voice and we can stand up and fight for the injustices and see that when people are attacked in our community, we can stand up. it doesn't matter in you're chinese or latin american or another other background, i can't tell you how meaningful this is to have his remembrance at the international terminal. thank you. [ applause ]. >> next we have someone who worked with mayor lee on housing policy issues. now as our very own airport commissioner, malcolm young. [ applause ]. >> first of all, i need to apologize to assembly member

chu. i think i laughed a little too loud at your short jokes -- mayor lee's short jokes. and then carmen nudged me as well. thank you for that. when the press asked me about why i was so adamant about seeing this terminal named after mayor lee, i gave a response that in a city that was home to the chinese exclusion act, it is fitting that this gateway be named of a chinese-american civil rights advocate, someone who devoted his entire career to breaking down barriers. in that context, i want to point out the naming of this terminal is incredibly ironic and important. if you ask me without the press around in a quieter moment why i was so adamant about this, i want to give a much simpler answer. ed becoming mayor made me proud

to be an asian-american. in a city and state where asian-americans had a long and unrecognized role of building, ed lee becoming mayor was important and this is a point we continue to mirror as a community. i wasn't surprised when there was so much unity from our community when we first started organizing the committee and the campaign to bring this after mayor lee. the commissioner said the airport damn well name the terminal after ed, because i've never seen so many people who don't like each other in the

same room pushing for the same thing. and maybe to put it in terms that our elected officials and advocates can understand better, this naming campaign got the president of the community residents association out staples it got the head of the realtors out for an entire year. i got asked the question, when is that ever going to happen again? thank you, ed. ed is not the only person that we need to thank, but we love that you're here and this is amazing. i want to talk a little bit about the effort that it took to get us here. this was a 13-month campaign and it was led from and came from the chinese american community. i want to say thank you to all of the supporters who came on board to push for this. i want to call out some individuals and groups in particular, and i know we will do that more later.

there were some folks who stepped-up. first and foremost i want to acknowledge annie chung. annie was on the naming committee. annie was the moral compass of this effort, but also i want to thank you for stepping out early. your leadership in this community and this effort really i think lent the credibility that we needed to make sure that this is something that everybody got behind. thank you so much, annie. annie just got back from hong kong yesterday, so we're glad you're here. i want to call out and thank guretta louis. i want to thank you for getting this rolling. when she called us, we thought she was inviting us for a free lunch. it turns out she was setting out our work plan for the next 13 months. i also want to acknowledge walter wong.

i know that losing ed was very important. your leadership also lent an incredible amount of effort to this and we want to thank you. your leadership to the chinese chamber of commerce, so many leaders from these organizations were there every step of the way. i see ringo in the back. pitman, eddie, everybody who showed up at hearing after hearing. and the same is true for our ccba president. don't take that kind of commitment lightly or for granted. thank you so much. the ed lee democratic club. you guys gave the best testimony, but you also had the best stickers hands down when we were in the testimony room.

many of you worked hard with and for ed during his years as mayor and that came out when you gave your public testimony. thank you. also to our grassroots leaders to the community associations. our non-profit community leaders from a.p.i. council. your coming out really showed that this campaign was something special to real people and not just us political types or quoks out the there and i thought that was meaningful. jan sey, you came out, wayne lee. the sisters of cities communities, you came out. you clearly relished ed's relishment. that will be my only bad joke. individual friends of ed lee came out. you guys were really amazing and you were there all the time.

ed's city family was incredibly helpful, the johnsons who aren't here. those who are here. cava and steve is here. also, i just want to really give a thank you to the numerous airport staff who were cheering us from the sidelines and figuring out how to make this happen really effectively and expeditiously. this is meant as a complement. you guys sound like a bunch of ed lee bureaucrats. i want to thank jason shaminard. i think everybody got to know your name because you sent out so many e-mails and you got to know this well. kimson wong. when we started this campaign,

you were running r.n.g. lounge and you let us meet there. thank you so much for your support along the way. bill lee who is here. bill has always been a leader in this community. we want to thank the mayor's family. you being there at our community meetings was really wind behind our backs and thank you so much for motivating us. i'm going to end on a bit of a personal note. not so many people know that i was head of the asian-american association. president chu was president 25 years before me. [ laughter ]. >> you know, i was planning for my installation dinner and i thought long and hard about who i wanted to be keynote speaker. one answer emerged which was the one person whose career i wanted

to capture as a person i wanted to emulate and it was ed lee. he was a community-based civil rights leader who went on to serve this city. and he exemplified the service that i wanted to impress on my fellow colleagues. when i got to work for mayor lee early on in his administration, it really was with great pride that i did so. i want to say it's with pride that when i come to the international terminal from now on i can say to myself or my wife that i got to work for that guy. thank you. [ applause ]. >> thanks, commissioner. it is our pleasure to have such

a wonderful showing and the family and we're so appreciative of everyone being here. with that, we want to welcome representing the family. if you would come on up daughter tonia speaking on behalf of the family. [ applause ]. >> hello, everyone. this is truly such an incredible honor. on behalf of my mom, anita lee, and the entire lee family, many of which are here today, we would like to thank mayor london breed, the airport director, members of the airport commission, and of course the wonderful community who pushed this initiative forward and who were really the heart of this amazing dedication today.

thank you so much. this dedication, like many have said, feels quite fitting. you know, people have talked about how as a first chinese american mayor, how significant that is in the place where in 1882 there was the exclusion act and now his name is on the international airport. my mom and dad raised my sister and i to be global citizens and to appreciate the interconnectedness of us all. you know, i also know that when my dad was mayor, he helped us strengthen so many international relationships with the city. all the times he was on those trips, he would text us about the things he was experiencing. this international terminal is such a beautiful and a significant kind of place, whether it's travellers about to embark on an exciting adventure

or a place to reunite with your loved ones or a place for those returning home, this is a place of coming and going that centers human connection and human possibility. what an amazing honor to have the departures hall of this international terminal dedicated to my father who was the son of chinese immigrants and who truly believed in our ability to raise each other up and to raise new heights. i will quos with a quote of my dad's "live your life boldly and keep the door open for others." dad's "live your life boldly and keep the door open for others." >> that concludes our speaking portion. i do want to recognize so many important people. all of you are important. i want to call all of you out. the board of supervisors, norman
