4:00 am
key point around reimplementing a telephone registration system just to make it easier for folkses who are living in shelter to be able to get to request shelter. so i appreciate those. supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: thank you, i just have a quick question, did supervisor chan move all three amendments together? >> chairman: supervisor chan moved to adopt supervisor melgar's amendments. >> supervisor stefani: okay. as we mentioned, i was find with the nonsubstantiative amendment and not with the other two. i don't think it's going to matter, but if anybody wanted to split that, i'd be fine or not. >> clerk: mr. chair, if we can divide the question on supervisor melgar's amendments if that's the case.
4:01 am
>> chairman: so. >> clerk: we have three amendments that you guys have called out. if you'd like to take them one by one we can do that and divide the question on it. >> chairman: okay. yeah. >> clerk: would you like to do that? >> chairman: sure. >> clerk: okay. we can go ahead and take the first one regarding shelter and adding after shelter with supervisor chan's addition to shelter expansion and permanent housing program and that is changed throughout the legislation. >> if i may just clarify one thing about that amendment, that word is added throughout, so it would expand the scope of the plan and it would expand the scope of the program. the other change that's in there, but maybe not so obvious is that the current proposal requires that the city try to
4:02 am
estimate the number of beds or units that would be required for all the people experiencing homelessness and supervisor melgar's version is a little more expansive and would require for all the people experiencing homelessness with the expecting number who would not accept it. >> chairman: so the first one is clearly substantiative, expanding the scope of the plan and implementation and the other one that's substantiative is reinstating the telephonic registration system. those are the two substantiative amendments,
4:03 am
right. okay. >> supervisor chan: yes. i will make the motion to the amendments to add permanent supportive housing throughout the legislation so that it reads as shelter and permanent supportive housing. >> chairman: supervisor melgar. >> supervisor melgar: just so i understand, i really liked your shelter expansion and permanent supportive housing. can i accept that on the fly, city attorney? >> are you talking about the title. >> the short title is something that's prepared by the city attorney's office to comply with noticing requirements. but it's not something that the board amends. >> supervisor melgar: okay. >> supervisor chan: i make that motion so you have to call the roll. >> chairman: yeah. why don't we call roll on that.
4:04 am
>> clerk: on the motion for the divided question for the first amendment to supervisor melgar's proposal, [roll call] there are two ayes. >> chairman: thank you. supervisor chan. >> supervisor chan: and, i'll make the second motion to amend to add the register for shelter by telephone. >> chairman: can we call roll on that, madam clerk. >> clerk: on the second divided question to supervisor melgar's amendment, [roll call] there are two ayes. >> chairman: thank you. >> supervisor chan: and then i think the third was for the
4:05 am
rest. i don't know. >> chairman: the rest of supervisor melgar's amendments that are nonsubstantiative. >> supervisor chan: yeah. so the rest will be. i will make the motion to amend the definitions which is adding the definition of like homelessness prevention and permanent supportive housing. >> chairman: great. please call roll. >> clerk: yes, on the third divided question, [roll call] there are three ayes. >> chairman: thank you. >> chairman: so deputy city attorney. >> i think it might be worthwhile to take one final vote. there are a couple issues that are remaining that i don't think were captured in the descriptions of the motions taken so far. so just a vote to approve the expansion that i described
4:06 am
previously that applies both to the analysis and the program itself that would expand those not only to look at people i thought the last one was just definitions, the stated motion. >> [ indiscernible ] >> those definitions appear throughout so, are yeah. >> [ indiscernible ] >> i think so. i think we haven't captureded 100%. >> chairman: actually, and
4:07 am
then, can we just clarify this point. so the third motion that supervisor chan made that we adopted was only adopting the amendments to the definition section. >> that was the motion that i heard and i think madam clerk agrees. >> chairman: there are additional amendments that supervisor melgar had presented that are part of the implementation plan or the plan in the implementation. >> there are a small number of additional amendments that i think haven't been captured yet including the language that would prohibit the use of funds that are allocated for other types of projects. so i just don't want the committee to miss anything that is intended to change. >> chairman: supervisor
4:08 am
mandelman. >> supervisor mandelman: yeah. i think we somehow split. the buckets that we have described have been voted on three times for two buckets and the third bucket which was the item on which i think we were all agreed about not breaking the law has not been voted on. right? >> chairman: supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: i'd like to move to rescind that last vote. >> chairman: okay. and that's -- okay. >> supervisor stefani: the last motion regarding the definitions. >> chairman: okay. madam clerk. >> clerk: on the motion to rescind the last vote on the third divided question, [roll call]
4:09 am
there are three ayes. >> chairman: thank you. supervisor chan. >> supervisor chan: i'll make the motion to amend the definition as well as the implementation and evaluation to add both the permanent supportive housing as well as the -- my apologies, homelessness -- oh, my gosh, my apologies for going too fast. now i lost my place. i will make the motion to move to amend the definition of -- there we go. i will move to amend homeless
4:10 am
-- amend the definitions of homelessness prevention as well as the permanent supportive housing and save overnight parking lot that is on page 9 and then it would then continue through to the implementation and evaluation. is that sufficient motion? >> i'm a little concerned it doesn't capture 100% of the amendments that are in the document. my understanding is the committee has approveded the addition of permanent housing. of the second motion was approved the telephonic line. now, the committee could consider a motion to approve everything else at this point or everything except for something. i think at this point there's definition that is need to be
4:11 am
added throughout. >> supervisor chan: if i make the motion to say we accept everything else, we amend everything else with the exception of the telephonic registry and permanent supportive housing? >> supervisor stefani: i'm thinking because -- i mean, at this point you have the votes. why don't you just move it and i'll just vote no. at this point. >> chairman: okay. thank you. supervisor chan has moved that we accept the rest of the remainder that supervisor melgar presented that weren't covered in the first two motions and these are nonsubstantiative. please call roll. >> clerk: on the motion we're taking the third divided question again on the balance of supervisor melgar's proposed amendments, [roll call] there are two ayes.
4:12 am
>> chairman: thank you. and, so i think we basically adopted the amendments that the three sets of amendments today that supervisor mandelman, supervisor safai, and supervisor melgar have presented. and deputy city attorney pierson, it seems like you're going to see if there's any overlap in language and just clean that up if there's nothing significant. >> i think we identified one overlap and i understood from supervisor mandelman he was moving to accept the language in supervisor safai's conflicting language. so i think i have my marching orders. >> chairman: great. thank you. supervisor chan. >> supervisor chan: and with that, i withdraw my motion to continue the item. >> chairman: okay. thank you. >> because the amendments are substantiative, the item will have to be continued. >> chairman: so i would move that we continue this to the next meeting of the p.s.n.s. committee. it is may 26th. >> yes. >> clerk: so on the motion to
4:13 am
continue item number three to the may 26th, 2022, psns meeting as amended, [roll call] there are three ayes. >> chairman: thank you. everyone. thanks again, supervisor mandelman. supervisor melgar and colleagues and everybody from the public. this will be continued. why don't we go back to -- we need to finish up item four. so deputy city attorney pierson, i know my office was in communication with you about an amendment to this that would allow us to keep this. >> i understand from the clerk that there actually is a little bit of room in the calendar to continue the item because the original is only at the mayor's
4:14 am
office right now and there's 30 more days before it goes into effect. i understand it's okay to continue it with the intention of amending it at the next meeting. >> chairman: sounds good. i'll move that we continue item four to the call of the chair. madam clerk. >> clerk: on the motion to continue item number four to the call of the chair or may 26th? may 26th is the last opportunity. >> chairman: state that then. >> clerk: item number four will be continued to may 26th. [roll call] there are three ayes. >> chairman: great thank you. madam clerk, is there any further business? >> clerk: that concludes our business for today. >> chairman: we are adjourned.

4:31 am
non-profit partnership. we have fought a long time for low income housing tax credits. it was formed many years ago. it was the bank. the italians started it. [indiscernable] as we celebrate ethnicity and itis important to note it is public private nonpartner partnerships that may being this possible and the mayor's office of housing is essential to bringing it altogether. let us be very grateful for mayor london breed for her great leadership in all of this. this mission has the latino identity. we have everything here.

4:36 am
mission community. i now welcome to the stage two community members. (applause). >> thank you, caroline. i was asked to speak today as a long-time member of the community if you wonder about my title. a friend said you know we are going to be there for the fight. i am honored to be here. let me share a few words on behalf of the community. the history has been told in unconventional ways not always through the history books or archives of established institutions. it is from the organizations
4:37 am
that provide direct services to our youth, to our children and families, and by creating foundational space for artists. the three community-based organizations that will now have permanent space. permanent space. you know how many of us have been displaced. certainly a lot of people that i know. the organizations displaced. they have been around the mission until now. we know that they have a space here. it is the visionary. the three community-based organizations will now have permanent space complete the new model of buildings with
4:38 am
affordable housing in community service providing organizations. as speaker pelosi said public private and government and community investment. the visionary collaborative work of cnbc and meta recommended in responding to the neats of family housing and community services. those are the needs of the community. with this building being an example of that along with buildings around us. to know there are buildings around us housing good am and they are elevating all communities in the mission. it was made possible with crucial san francisco city funding and federal support to build out the organizations here and it would be for the support of mayor breed apspeaker pelosi.
4:39 am
importantly this has come about because of reslept less advocacy and organizing of the affordable housing champions in our community. it could not have happened without them and could not have happened without the support i mentioned. that is how we need to build things. yes. more, more, more and again and again, yes. >> i have been part of this community since the early 1970s. twenty-fourth and brian was transformative for so many of us. the struggle to survive and thrives in system to take away humanity. those were given voice,
4:40 am
dimension by the artist through the paintings, murals and films and music and poetry that kept us strong to continue organizing on behalf of our communities. that is why i was strengthened to continue fighting and advocating. we went to washington, d.c. this past weekend to advocate for reunification of children that are separated. that is part of what we kin to do. th is community support and arts that give us that break. >> did i say life saving? i mean it generally. when i was held a political prisoner in argentina in 1974-76.
4:41 am
it was a community that rallied that gained my release. it was the artist who created posters and flyers to help to mobilize people. it was the poet and musician who gave strength to my family and friends until i was released and able to come home in 1976. from that historic corner to this powerful new buildings all families of 143 locations that are here to welcome families and residents. they cannot calm this home. pat last we are home. [applause]. >> good morning. i would like to thank everyone for coming today to the grand
4:42 am
opening. 2828 15th street. i have been living here with my two daughters five months. i will share my experience here. for the past four years in san francisco. in this building i feel safe and at home. the community feels much better, neighbors are kind. the staff are like property managers. are friendly. we are like one big family here. i love it. where we live before in san francisco it caused a lot of stress. in this building we don't have to worry about it. it makes a big difference. in the every day for health and energy and volunteering to give
4:43 am
back to my neighboreds. the building i volunteered doing bingo and working on the rooftop garden and helped teach english and spanish classes. now that my family is safe and secure i feel like my daughters can leave their dreams. they both graduate high school next year and i want them to go to college. [applause]. one wants to become a nurse the other wants to work with kids with disabilities. i am proud of them and this has felt like a real family. thank you for making this building possible. [applause] >> now our very own mayor london
4:44 am
breed. >> mayor breed: i can't tell you how good it feels to be here today. it is even more incredible to be here to share this amazing moment with our speaker, man see pelosi, who, let me tell you. what it comes to taking carry of not just the city of san francisco but this entire country there is no more fearless leader than nancy pelosi and she is a daughter of this amazing city. [applause]. we probably wouldn't be able to do this project and so many other things in this city were it not for her work and advocacy with the federal government. we wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for the advocacy of the people of this community.
4:45 am
i remember when i served on the board of supervisors and supervisor ronan was ad to the previous supervisor. this community we saw a significant decline in residents. 2000 and 2019 a loss of 9,000 latinos? the community. people had the conversation and i couldn't help think about the filmore, what happened to the loss of african-american population, and the need for us as a city to do more. may other ed lee put $50,000 in the budget to see more homes built in this community. this in addition to eight other properties are part of that legacy. not enough to build housing. one of the things that would happen when we would build
4:46 am
housing in these neighborhoods. people who lived here had to go through extensive lottery process with thousands of applicants. when i announced my plans to fly to dc after they told us no and with support of our leader and this community we stood in front to announce what people in this community we were going to fight for neighborhood preference. now 157 units here, 143 units. the work this community has done has led to 700 units so far and almost 500 units to come. we are well on the way to finally realizing the dream of the people who make the fabric of the mission community and are critical to what makes san francisco special. i am honored to cut this ribbon
4:47 am
today. it feels so good and rewarding and exciting. child care center and resources. i am excited that home is an organization that i work with as the executive director of african-american art and culture complex. i had a last comment request they would meet the deadline. thank you homey for being there. so many amazing people. this is a dream realized. i want be to say how grateful i am that this community said yes to supporting our residents in public housing in sunnydale and potrero hill. there were units set aside because of remodel of hope sf projects. people needed a safe place to call home as we began that
4:48 am
process. we didn't want families displaced from san francisco. this is part of the fabric what makes san francisco so special. i cannot wait to continue to cut the ribbons, purchase properties to get homes built so san francisco is a place for all. thank you so much for being here today. [applause]. >> i will split the other program. i just want to thank mayor breed for being here today and for her leadership in this issue and other issues. thank you very, very much. gratitude to everyone who made this map. when you see the layers of government from the board of supervisors to the mayor's office to the speaker of the house, this is what good government can accomplish.
4:49 am
as non-profits like homey. we made it happen. we made it happen. i am hoping that your role in this project. as you walk by the project in years to come you are full of pride in what you accomplish and what we accomplished together. i want to build another 10 buildings like there in the next five years. thank you very much. >> mayor breed: count together. five, four, three, two, one. [cheers and applause.]
4:51 am
dev mission's goal is aiming to train young adults, youth so we can be a wealth and disparity in underserved communities like where we are today. my name is leo sosa. i'm the founder and executive director for devmission. we're sitting inside a computer lab where residents come and get support when they give help
4:52 am
about how to set up an e-mail account. how to order prescriptions online. create a résumé. we are also now paying attention to provide tech support. we have collaborated with the san francisco mayor's office and the department of technology to implement a broad band network for the residents here so they can have free internet access. we have partnered with community technology networks to provide computer classes to the seniors and the residents. so this computer lab becomes a hub for the community to learn how to use technology, but that's the parents and the adults. we have been able to identify what we call a stem date. the acronym is science technology engineering and math. kids should be exposed no matter what type of background or ethnicity or income status. that's where we actually create magic. >> something that the kids are
4:53 am
really excited about is science and so the way that we execute that is through making slime. and as fun as it is, it's still a chemical reaction and you start to understand that with the materials that you need to make the slime. >> they love adding their little twists to everything. it's just a place for them to experiment and that's really what we want. >> i see. >> really what the excitement behind that is that you're making something. >> logs, legos, sumo box, art, drawing, computers, mine craft, and really it's just awaking opportunity. >> keeping their attention is like one of the biggest challenges that we do have because, you know, they're kids. they always want to be doing something, be helping with something. so we just let them be themselves. we have our set of rules in place that we have that we want them to follow and live up to. and we also have our set of
4:54 am
expectations that we want them to achieve. this is like my first year officially working with kids. and definitely i've had moments where they're not getting something. they don't really understand it and you're trying to just talk to them in a way that they can make it work teaching them in different ways how they can get the light bulb to go off and i've seen it first-hand and it makes me so happy when it does go off because it's like, wow, i helped them understand this concept. >> i love playing games and i love having fun with my friends playing dodge ball and a lot of things that i like. it's really cool. >> they don't give you a lot of cheese to put on there, do they? you've got like a little bit left. >> we learn programming to make them work.
4:55 am
we do computers and programming. at the bottom here, we talk to them and we press these buttons to make it go. and this is to turn it off. and this is to make it control on its own. if you press this twice, it can do any type of tricks. like you can move it like this and it moves. it actually can go like this. >> like, wow, they're just absorbing everything. so it definitely is a wholehearted moment that i love experiencing. >> the realities right now, 5.3
4:56 am
latinos working in tech and about 6.7 african americans working in tech. and, of course, those tech companies are funders. so i continue to work really hard with them to close that gap and work with the san francisco unified school district so juniors and seniors come to our program, so kids come to our stem hub and be exposed to all those things. it's a big challenge. >> we have a couple of other providers here on site, but we've all just been trying to work together and let the kids move around from each department. some kids are comfortable with their admission, but if they want to jump in with city of dreams or hunter's point, we just try to collaborate to provide the best opportunity in the community. >> devmission has provided services on westbrook. they teach you how to code.
4:57 am
how to build their own mini robot to providing access for the youth to partnerships with adobe and sony and google and twitter. and so devmission has definitely brought access for our families to resources that our residents may or may not have been able to access in the past. >> the san francisco house and development corporation gave us the grant to implement this program. it hasn't been easy, but we have been able to see now some of the success stories of some of those kids that have been able to take the opportunity and continue to grow within their education and eventually become a very successful citizen. >> so the computer lab, they're doing the backpacks. i don't know if you're going to be able to do the class. you still want to try? . yeah. go for it.
4:58 am
>> we have a young man by the name of ivan mello. he came here two and a half years ago to be part of our digital arts music lab. graduating with natural, fruity loops, rhymes. all of our music lyrics are clean. he came as an intern, and now he's running the program. that just tells you, we are only creating opportunities and there's a young man by the name of eduardo ramirez. he tells the barber, what's that flyer? and he says it's a program that teaches you computers and art. and i still remember the day he walked in there with a baseball cap, full of tattoos. nice clean hair cut. i want to learn how to use computers. graduated from the program and he wanted to work in i.t.. well, eduardo is a dreamer. right.
4:59 am
so trying to find him a job in the tech industry was very challenging, but that didn't stop him. through the effort of the office of economic work force and the grant i reached out to a few folks i know. post mates decided to bring him on board regardless of his legal status. he ended his internship at post mates and now is at hudacity. that is the power of what technology does for young people that want to become part of the tech industry. what we've been doing, it's very innovative. helping kids k-12, transitional age youth, families, parents, communities, understand and to be exposed to stem subjects. imagine if that mission one day can be in every affordable housing community. the opportunities that we would
