phillips the executive director of economic workforce development. welcome to the show. >> thank you for having me. let's talk about the city economic plan and specifically the city's road map to san francisco future. can you give a brief overview and update on progress? >> absolute e. in february 2023 mayor breed released the roadmap comprised to 9 strategies to move the city forward understanding there was structural and lang lasting changing by the covid impact. 134 were shorter term impacts how people using transit downtown and coming out and are using small businesses, some of them remember long-term structural impacts. the way we work. how often we are in an office and how much office space companies who had headquartered in san francisco need.

some of those were structural impacts how we stop. there has been a long-term change as online shopping takes up a greater share how we performs and covid-19 took a shift that would probably take 10 to 15 years happen and collapse what happened ofern the timeframe to 2 years so saw structural impacts how people shop. we have seen a lot of progress rchlt we are 9 months in and significant things we have seen is efforts creating permitinant services and homes for people experiencing homelessness is dramatic. we increased the number of shelter beds dramatically and take-up of the beds dramatically, and there is more work to do. on the safety side there are exciting things that happened. we increased our police pay among the highest in the bay area which is a important thing

for recruitment. police recruitment across the country is down so recruiting the best we can means we need to give a high pay set. august the highsh return in graduates. we see 75 decrease in retail theft and 50 percent reduction in car break ins which is quality of life crime san francisco experienced so there is real progresses we are seeing on clean and safe sides. one thing important in the mayor roadmap we are not trying to get back to 2020 vision. i think covid showed having a downtown with people sitting at offices isn't the best downtown it can be. i think it is a opportunity to bring 24 hour life use downtown. >> music and concerts is a

great way to bring people to a specific location. golden gate park we had lots of events in plazas throughout the city. can you talk about those and if there is upcoming events too? >> i think you touched on something key to the mayor road map. for san francisco and particularly san francisco downtown to move forward and be successful as a great american city, it is about bringing people together because they want to be together not because they center to be together and music is a strong part that. the planet concert sear ries coming up and happening throughout the city not just golden gate park but downtown locations are a great example. there are smaller examples as well. the landing at--is a new plaza we constructed in the mayor roadmap where two streets come together akwraisant to a couple restaurants closed to cars in

daytime, chairs and seating and throughout the week they have lunch time and evening music to bring people together after work. they participate in that. something we are working on setting up for next year which is really exciting is our sf live program and that will bring a full 2024 concert series where we match local venues bringing their work and partnership to useian square, music center plaza and embark cadero. we will be able to announce concert series through the sf- >> you mentioned vacant to vibrant, that program has a lot of attention lately. can you talk generally what exactly that program is? >> yeah. so, we opened a program where

we put out a call for landlords willing to offer groundfloor space for free for 3 to 6 month jz small business or storefront operators who had a proposal what they would do for 3 to 6 months. it is pilot. we had a incredible amount of interest. we had--i'm forgetting the number of landlords, but more then we expected because we are in a place where commercial real estate understands they need to come to the table to help make our groundfloor lively and resulting in a transition where the groundfloor is seen less as a money making operation, but more as a leader to lease upper floors. if you have a active ground floor yields better on the other 80 percent of the building you are trying to lease. that was great, a lot of cooperation scr over 700 small business or operators responded to that call.

it is pop up. there is no intention this would result in forever small businesses, but there is certainly a hope and i think what we are hearing, i don't have the final data, but there are 17 activators in 9 different spaces, some are colocated, which is why the difference, and out of those 9 spaces that are being leased for free, now 7 of them are in discussions for long-term leases so the spaces continue. it is the program. we are hopeful to have a second and third traunch and hoping to pilot in other neighborhoods with other partners. it is not an inexpensive program because there is a lot of capital that goes into popping up for short amount of time but what we are seen is they visit the businesses, the businesses are successful and san francisco want to support this activation so hopeful to expand it. >> that's great. can you talk a bit about why piloting programs and testing things is so important?

>> absolutely. you know, i would say not only the important generally but important in san francisco specifically. the benefit of pilot programs in the reasons they are really important here is, it allows us to try something and say, there may be consequence but let's understand those in real time rather then waiting to start a strategy while we think about them on paper and if they are too great we can modify the program as we go. mta has absorbed the strategy whether a bike lane or other to figure how best to use the street? is this working? is it working for bikes and cars and buses? maybe not, let's switch it around and pilots have been important to oewd to our office particularly because we tend to have the ability and the mayor's support through the budget process to pilot things through request for proposals

or rfp process where we can put out a small amount of funding, try activation and small public plaza, see if it works and i think the benefit there is, if it doesn't work we tried it and had the benefit of seeing real time and when it does work, we are able to uplift that and move into a permanent strategy and that is where our agency turns over something we piloted to another agency because it is part of the city operating procedure. pilots also give people hope. when we have the short-term whether it is physical public plaza or activation that shows change is possible and allows them to vote for what they like. >> lastly, in lith light of the current ai boom, do you think there is a way to leverage those new changes to

take a bunch of san francisco's status as a tech hub? >> i do, i think they work together. san francisco right now has a strong vacancy problem in our office space. and there is a back-story to that. our zoning downtown has not prevented other uses, in terms of permitting uses of the multi-story building has been open including allowing residential but we put other barriers, cost and code barriers et cetera and what happened also during the height of our preevious boom is that, the amount that tech companies were willing to pay for office space bid everything out so we-without intentionally zoning a single use downtown, we de facto became a single use downtown and thereat is the opportunity you are pointing out. now because downtown was so convertible from work from

home, particularly as tech based downtown was and how much companies put at the market in the office spaces we are seeing high vacancy now, all most 30 percent so there is lot of square feet but that presents a lot of opportunity. we have the ability to absorb expansion of the tech industry we are so strong at. we have seen over 800 thousand square feet of ai space leased just in 2023 alone and there is still more demand out in the market, more ai companies looking for space so that is a growth spot absorbing some of the vac ancy. the opportunity too is prices for downtown lease s have also dropped and that opens up a breath of opportunity to a breath of companies that were priced out in 2018, 2019, 2020. san francisco has always been great at starting companies and allowing them to grow here. when our prices are too high it

prevents that growth so now we are a super fertile ground for more start ups and invasion on the smaller end of the sector because they can come and enter our market and we have the space to offer. to talk about san francisco's assets and the leveraging that, we sit at the epicenter of really great university and educational institutions. we are between uc berkeley and stanford. the graduates produced just from those institutions alone stay in the bay area and want to rise up and work here, provide a real opportunity for the start ups to build their companies and companies to grow here so we confident we will absorb a certain amount of office space with ai tech. with that, we are interested in increasing our human capital growing graduates. downtown university is something the mayor is open to pursuing and we are in conversations with uc berkeley we love to have as a partner in our downtown and then

residential conversions are a great partner to that. as we build back the office space, people will want to live downtown again and we have a number buildings that can be converted to residential. the costs are high. mayor breed and her partners on the board made significant changes to reduce the costs. we waived fees for change of uses in the downtown area. there are code changes that will make the conversions easier. there is a ballot measure on the march ballot that will attempt to reduce costs for those as well. it is ongoing process and none of those changes we talked about absent ai growth downtown, but institutional growth downtown, arts growth downtown and residential conversions downtown are long-term changes so one thing i want to say recollect i do think there is a opportunity per your question, but we also need to be patient because what we are talking about is is a real shift to the make-up of the downtown since from the growth it has been starting at

since the turn of the century so that isn't a 2 year change, that is a 10 year change and we center to watch as it goes. >> thank you so much. i really appreciate you spending the time here today and your creative vision and positivity, so thank you so much. >> thanks so much for having me and hope you all downtown and shop. >> that is it for this episode. for sfgovtv i'm chris manors, thanks

integrity and humanity (clapping.) and my heart goes out to our friends and family um, i want to take a moment to send our love to our neighbors down south in southern california who are hurting and when one of our fellow california cities is hurting we all hurt. >> mayor london breed and san francisco fire department sent a team down there and had friends that heard they saw a caravan of fir trucks down 101 we send them our best and hold them closely (clapping.) i want to thank again mayor london breed for your advise and counsel and tremendous support

(clapping) >> i want to thank the in coming board of supervisors and all the elected guests and finally and more importantly i want to thank all of you for thank you for being here today today marks the beginning of a new era of change at 1230u8 one that above all else serves you the people of san francisco. that begins now. (clapping.)

and i entered this mayors race not at a politician but a dad who couldn't explain to my kids what were you seeing on the streets that's never hit me as hard last month at generally hospital after meeting doctors and specialties we end our tour there i stood in quiet of nursery surrounded by babies in critical condition some of them recovering from fentanyl exposure a heart breaking picture of our city's addressing the crises on our streets. as i listened to the nurses and the tons of patients i heard that

familiar sound of hope the same hope i hired on every street corner in every neighborhoods in san francisco make no mistake, hope is alive and well in san francisco. (clapping.) the nurses assured me with the right treatment and care those babies are resilient they get better. after seeing a instagram you experience one mother committed that was my baby and me i want everyone to know recovery is possible she said and she's right. (clapping.) and recovery is possible but needs to be more than a possibility in san francisco it must be our mission together, together we can all get better

do better and return san francisco to its rightful place as the grrlt city in the world (clapping) san francisco is long been known for the trial attorneys and inclusion if you nothing widespread drug use and seeing people if crises it is the skirt safety is not a specific and feeling you hold when you're walking down the street that insecurity ask human right people south of market and the mission and beyond. i refuse to believe this is who we are you voted for accountability a clear mandate that my administration

will work to fulfill every single day. but as coach said lasting change didn't happen overnight it it takes time. but if we're consistent and aren't afraid to make tough decisions san francisco will rise to new heights. (clapping.) now with the largest deficit we can't hide in the 23ish8 reality we must make rethinking the way we operator we need to stop spending and prioritize and make the investments that are critical to getting san francisco up and running again and when we coyote the other side and we will we must sure that every san franciscan shares

prosperity from this moment this is a new structure isn't mayor's office that allows for opportunity for city department to work together effectively to solve the preying problem problems we are having a cross section of people if every segment. we will fight everyday for san francisco future and safer more affordable city for all. (clapping.) we can't continue to triage the crises we face if we turn this city around good intentions are not enough and strong values we must act with a focus on results and create the solutions that last far beyond 6 tenure of this

administration. starting today, we are treating the fentanyl crises as an emergency that it is. as we speak as we speak the san francisco police department and sheriff's department are shifting resources and personnel this bring drug dealers to justice and clean up our streets (clapping.) today what has been a temporary will be a permanent shutter of this administration the fentanyl is not a 9 to 5 operation does take a break and neither will we (clapping.) that's why i'm introducing a state of fentanyl emergency

services to be pass the bury i look forward to working with it in coming board of supervisors for their approval i want to thank all of you for your shared commitment to stop mental illness on our streets. thank you. >> thank you. (clapping.) this authorization will fast track a partnership to stand up temporarily shelter beds and address the homeless on our streets it is time. that is time to move pass the politicians it is time to redefine how politics works in our city we stand united we send a clear message to the city and to the country that you don't come to san francisco to deal drugs or do drugs on our street if you do

you'll be held accountable (clapping.) this is truly a new era of a open session and mutual respect been city hall and others on the front line without you, we can't carry on this vision for change this is why you have any guarantee will be zero cuts to sworn officers 9-1-1 officers and firefighters and nurses. (clapping.) and our first reading who are here today looking at for all of thank you very much but our first reading need to know we have their backs doing

everything we can to fly reactive the sheriff's department and 9-1-1 incentivize them to stay (clapping.) and just to be clear, we must that operate with the understanding that not every issue needs to be followed solved by someone with the badge we have the and 3 teams operated by 5 departments and despite made investments of personnel and resources msnbc thinks the kufrnts structure is working our fir step to mandate all departments maintain a single public safest street condition dab you can't build solutions without good data. >> we will also think

embedding the first reading units and until now the only on the first reading have had to take those suffering from mental illness or addiction to hospitals or jail. i'm excited to announce this spring opposing the first 24/7 friendly drop off center. >> this this will create better pastas to treatment and give police the authority to hold those who rife help accountable as we move people off the streets into recovery expand the journey home providing increased transportation and so forth for those ready to reunite with loved one or outside of san francisco. (clapping.) another key to producing better outcomes on the streets to focus our investments in high

nonprofits service providers. this will save us money but help the nonprofits shape and better serve the needs of most vulnerable san franciscans. more accountability and effective distribution of our reservoirs clears the path to san francisco recovery (clapping.) making our streets safer and cleaner will super charge the revitalization of our downtown corridor i'm excited to announce we've been latino the this dedicated police unit will have a safe assignment for workers and shoppers and visitors in the market street and not just when there is a conference in town but every single day three hundred and 65 days a year

50 answers is over that's our promise to you. (clapping.) we can on or near wait to build we must create those conditions. now better corroboration will be a hallway mark that will keep one department from tearing up the maintenance and another from doing to two weeks later we have allowed far too many people to lose faith in government. i know we can restore that as your mayor i'm going to take am at the problems here in san francisco because that's what you elected me to do. and i know that many feel a great sense of fear and loss about the state of

everyone that i'm in appreciation of all you have done. and i want to say not just for today but what you meant to the state of california and the city of san francisco and part of my personnel journey as a sheriff and your landlord i wanted give you a get out of jail key. so -- thank you. [applause] i -- i know there are a lot of things going on today and i wanted to i can i show thank you is my remarks. but as i sat here, i want to be

very thankful and grateful for you being here today. i know that the dawning of a new day in terms of leadership a lot are paying attention to what is going of i want to take ape moment outside of my remarks to share how humble i feel in regards to what i have been able to do and the people i worked with my entire career. i'm looking forward to the opportunity of working with people, some whom will continue on this journey some who are new to the job. but sitting here with all of you and seeing all these things happening, the lion dance team. bob carroll was under one of the lion and my tax officers at the academy. machine who taught mow to be who i am in law enforcement. and then the other lion was my friends's daughter amanda.

and that represents just this segment of my life where it bridges generations it is a part of who i am. and it is an example of when my experiences have been. and it is very special. i look out there right now and i see people i worked with for year in different areas and i think fringely, you mentioned something about me being diplomatic i don't know if my family would say that. [laughter] ball it is a quality i have to make sure we do good work for the city we have to work together. there is one word i never mentioned before and in any remarks public low, that word is, love. the love i have for this city is by no means more than the love i have for my family or anymore more than for my friends, but i

hope this in the work this i have done in the years that i have spent wearing this uniform and rising through the ranks and askendzing to the position i'm in i hope some of this love translated to the work we have done in to the relations we shared and worked together on. all of us here collectively. any part of my life you have been, know that there has been a part of that love i had for all you have all of this time and i'm very grateful to be here standing before you with the opportunity to continue on as the sheriff in san francisco. with the opportunity to condition to work with everyone here to make this place safer and better. very hopeful. for when we see coming on the horizon here, very grateful for the work we have done.

i know everyone acknowledged for those of you here now this have not been mentioned, know that i'm grateful for you being here. and for the work we have done and i want to recognize mayor breed right now because there were 2 things we experienced since the first time i came on this job. one, one month or whatever after i took this position collective low we faced a pandemic. we dealt with a worldwide challenge this come once every hundred years. and the w we did in san francisco, was in the just one agency or one place or one person it it is all of us together and i think that what we did in this time, can translate to when we do for the city to make it better. we already planted the seemed mayor breed i recognize the fact you were a part of that journey and he were the guiding force behind making sure we did this work to keep people safe.

work to keep this city going >> regardless of what people say. regardless of the experiences we had. we come out at the end of the tunnel together and i thank you for that. [applause] right now, tara helped me with my remarks is tearing her hair out i'm not saying anything this is on here. [laughter] and as you can bear with me, please, i will get back on point but i doment to recognize as i mentioned, i do want to recognize all of us that work together as a city and the leadership and who we are how we define the city is up to us. and the work we are continuing to do i'm grateful for the opportunity to be the sheriff and to continue this work with all of you.

i do want to recognize every person, every member of the sheriff's office. and the sworn staff professional staff, regardless of assignment or work; there is a sense of love this i feel for all of you. which carries me through the challenging times. which helps me to make the hard decisions that sometimes are adheres to core value and not pleasant to have to do. and i think frank took half my speech. so i will reference back to what he said about what our guiding principles do in terms of how we do our job. and what you are inside or outside the sheriff's office is committed to making sure that you are safe, to making sure we as a community work together.

help each other. if you are in a moment where you are at your lowest point, which is usually jail. or juvenile in the the justice system, we are here not just to protect people but to give people opportunity for change. to give people opportunity to become someone better. and that translates to the work we are doing in partnership with our public safety agencies and partnership with other agencies throughout the city. because this is a group effort and something we are doing together. we have partnered with the community in ways we have not done before. that's important as well because when we are trying to message about we are all in this together. not this it is any one person, job or the government's job not that it is any elected official's job alone temperature it is something we all do together. and i appreciate the opportunity to continue to be a part of this.

i spent my entire civil service career in the sheriff's office. i seen people come and go. i now stand before you someone who will continue my commitment to public service in a more role i say that a lot of people i work with through the years have moveod and entered different chaps. i recognize the current members of the department this are active but recognize those of you in the room this served previously and i want to thank you for this service. and thank you for being a part of who i am right now. your service continues through me. and through the leadership i provide to the sheriff's office. just please, everybody, thank you very much and give a round for those who have previously served.
