number 5. with the latter two being continued to the call of the chair. yeah. by the way, i'm not adamant but i want to put out the notion of taking a part of this which is the rh2 and we can sever that out and send it on and be done with that portion of it as we wrestle with the rest of it. if it all stays here for a while longer, so be it. and i do appreciate the notion of waiting until feasibility, which i'm still shaking my head about and i will say this to the folks at the planning department, number one, when you have this information and you

had it since february supply it to the board of supervisors and when you do submit it -- and i'm not saying this lightly, you submit it to the supervisors on this panel, yes, but you also submit it to the clerk. otherwise, it looks a little nefarious when you're showing up with a hard copy. it's not electronic. it's not in the file. wouldn't be in the file right now if i had not made it a part of the file. it's not the way it works. the public's supposed to be able to see this and our colleagues and it's an admonition to planning and i will defer to my other colleague on the panel as to the chair's suggestion about the five-way way to proceed. >> chair: it may be a couple weeks from now but we still

don't have consensus and have to split and what you suggest but i don't think that we're quite there yet. >> supervisor: and i appreciate -- i'll go back to what i said earlier the way you've conducted this lead up and in so far as what planning said in writing, three to four weeks for feasibility revisited and we may be a week ahead of schedule the other possibility is to continue the full thing to the call of the chair so we actually don't reconvene until we actually have that second look. >> chair: the issue is i think there's noticing requirements, right, mr. halipa and it's going to day certain. supervisor preston. chair melgar. >> supervisor: i'm glad you had to articulate that five-prong

notion not me. and if we can consider that context as i stated before i have issues with one of the three and don't have any issue with honoring the desire to put those amendments through, have it go to planning for review and everything and until then sb 9

is in effect and any home owner can go forward and do up zoning. [please stand by]

>> so the first motion is -- i am making the motion to move the amendments that the supervisor submitted and bring it into the record, and then to continue items four and five to the call of the chair. >> okay. we could say that into votes just to be clear. >> on the motion by chair melgar to accept the amendments, items number 5, which is the ordinance of file number 21134, offered by

supervisor safai... [ roll call ] we have three ayes. and on that, the motion to continue item number 4, the ordinance in file 211202 and the ordinance in item number 5215214 as amended to the call of the chair. vice chair preston? [ roll call ] we have three ayes. >> okay. i will make the motion that we continue the original 210866, i think, to may 9th.

>> yes, okay. just as a point of clarity, we did have the original ordinance in item number 3, we are taking that as is and continuing. okay. on that motion... [ roll call ] we have three ayes. >> vice chair preston, would you like to move your amendment? >> thank you. i would like to move amend the previously stated look back revision. the first duplicated file, and then, will we can just take role. >> wasn't there another amendment about the findings? >> yes, it is the same issue. >> okay. >> the two sections amended that we previously distributed. >> thank you. >> on that motion by vice chair preston that the first duplicate of the file be amended with the

amendments that he offered... [ roll call ] we have three ayes. >> thank you. supervisor preston, would you like to move the motion? >> sure. i am amending the second duplicate of the file as submitted by supervisor marr. >> on that motion by vice chair preston to amend the second duplicated form, accepting the amendments offered by supervisor mar... [ roll call ] we have three ayes. >> thank you so much. that motion passes. >> and then do we need to continue those? >> yes. i would like to make a motion

that we continue the first duplicated file and the second duplicated file to may 9th. >> on that motion to continue both duplicated files as amended to the land use and transportation committee meeting of may ninth... [ roll call ] we have three ayes. >> great. motion passes. thank you, all, for all that hard work. mr. clerk, do we have anymore items for today? >> that concludes our business. >> thank you so much. we are adjourned.

>> restaurants will be open for take out only, but nonessential stores, like bars and gyms, will close effective midnight tonight. [♪♪♪] >> my name is sharky laguana. i am a small business owner.

i own a company called vandigo van rentals. it rents vans to the music industry. i am also a member of the small business commission as appointed by mayor breed in 2019. i am a musician and have worked as a professional musician and recording artist in the 90s. [♪♪♪] >> we came up in san francisco, so i've played at most of the live venues as a performer, and, of course, i've seen hundreds of shows over the years, and i care very, very deeply about live entertainment. in fact, when i joined the commission, i said that i was going to make a particular effort to pay attention to the arts and entertainment and make sure that those small businesses receive the level of

attention that i think they deserve. >> this is a constantly and rapidly changing situation, and we are working hard to be aggressive to flatten the curve to disrupt the spread of covid-19. >> when the pandemic hit, it was crystal clear to me that this was devastating to the music industry because live venues had to completely shutdown. there was no way for them to open for even a single day or in limited capacity. that hit me emotionally as an artist and hit me professionally, as well as a small business that caters to artists, so i was very deeply concerned about what the city could do to help the entertainment committee. we knew we needed somebody to introduce some kind of legislation to get the ball rolling, and so we just started texting supervisor haney, just

harassing him, saying we need to do something, we need to do something. he said i know we need to do something, but what do we do? we eventually settled on this idea that there would be an independent venue recovery fund. >> clerk: there are 11 ayes. >> president walton: thank you. without objection, this resolution is passed unanimously. >> and we were concerned for these small mom-and-pop businesses that contribute so much to our arts community. >> we are an extremely small venue that has the capacity to do extremely small shows. most of our staff has been working for us for over ten years. there's very little turnover in the staff, so it felt like

family. sharky with the small business commission was crucial in pestering supervisor haney and others to really keep our industry top of mind. we closed down on march 13 of 2020 when we heard that there was an order to do so by the mayor, and we had to call that show in the middle of the night. they were in the middle of their sound check, and i had to call the venue and say, we need to cancel the show tonight. >> the fund is for our live music and entertainment venues, and in its first round, it will offer grants of at least $10,000 to qualifying venues. these are venues that offer a signature amount of live

entertainment programming before the pandemic and are committed to reopening and offering live entertainment spaces after the pandemic. >> it's going to, you know, just stave off the bleeding for a moment. it's the city contributing to helping make sure these venues are around, to continue to be part of the economic recovery for our city. >> when you think about the venues for events in the city, we're talking about all of them. some have been able to come back adaptively over the last year and have been able to be shape shifters in this pandemic, and that's exciting to see, but i'm really looking forward to the day when events and venues can reopen and help drive the recovery here in san francisco. >> they have done a study that says for every dollar of ticket sales done in this city, $12

goes to neighboring businesses. from all of our vendors to the restaurants that are next to our ven sues and just so many other things that you can think of, all of which have been so negatively affected by covid. for this industry to fail is unthinkable on so many levels. it's unheard of, like, san francisco without its music scene would be a terribly dismal place. >> i don't know that this needs to be arrest -- that there needs to be art welfare for artists. we just need to live and pay for our food, and things will take care of themselves. i think that that's not the given situation. what san francisco could do that they don't seem to do very much is really do something to support these clubs and venues

that have all of these different artists performing in them. actually, i think precovid, it was, you know, don't have a warehouse party and don't do a gig. don't go outside, and don't do this. there was a lot of don't, don't, don't, and after the pandemic, they realized we're a big industry, and we bring a lot of money into this city, so they need to encourage and hope these venues. and then, you know, as far as people like me, it would be nice if you didn't only get encouraged for only singing opera or playing violin. [♪♪♪] >> entertainment is a huge part of what is going to make this city bounce back, and we're going to need to have live music coming back, and comedy, and drag shows and everything under the sun that is fun and creative in order to get smiles back on our faces and in order

to get the city moving again. [♪♪♪] >> venues serve a really vital function in society. there aren't many places where people from any walk of life, race, religion, sexuality can come together in the same room and experience joy, right? experience love, experience anything that what makes us human, community, our connective tissues between different souls. if we were to lose this, lose this situation, you're going to lose this very vital piece of society, and just coming out of the pandemic, you know, it's going to help us recover socially? well, yeah, because we need to be in the same room with a bunch of people, and then help

people across the country recover financially. >> san francisco art recovery fund, amazing. it opened yesterday on april 21. applications are open through may 5. we're encouraging everyone in the coalition to apply. there's very clear information on what's eligible, but that's basically been what our coalition has been advocating for from the beginning. you know, everyone's been supportive, and they've all been hugely integral to this program getting off the ground. you know, we found our champion with supervisor matt haney from district six who introduced this legislation and pushed this into law. mayor breed dedicated $1.5 million this fund, and then supervisor haney matched that, so there's $3 million in this fund. this is a huge moment for our coalition. it's what we've been fighting for all along. >> one of the challenges of our

business is staying on top of all the opportunities as they come back. at the office of oewd, office of economic and workforce development, if you need to speak to somebody, you can find people who can help you navigate any of the available programs and resources. >> a lot of blind optimism has kept us afloat, you know, and there's been a lot of reason for despair, but this is what keeps me in the business, and this is what keeps me fighting, you know, and continuing to advocate, is that we need this and this is part of our life's blood as much as oxygen and food is. don't lose heart. look at there for all the various grants that are available to you. some of them might be very slow to unrao, and it might seem like too -- unroll, and it

might seem like it's too late, but people are going to fight to keep their beloved venues open, and as a band, you're going to be okay. [♪♪♪]

>> good morning. the meeting will come to order. welcome to the april 21, 2022, board of supervisors and board of supervisors and i am supervisor dean preston joined by connie chan who is joining us remotely and supervisor mandelman. the committee clerk is victor young, and we want to extend our thanks to the team at sfgov tv for staffing this meeting. mr. clerk, do do you have any announcements? >> the board of supervisors and the committees are convening hybrid meetings while providing remote access via telephone and that equitable access and first public comment will be taken on
