local prisons and social responsibility are things for us to think about and consider in terms of our banking relationship we have trade where the city is putting its money. the residents that kim appear are indicative of the local presence at -- wells fargo has and in addition, wells fargo has also irresponsibly handled the properties they have acquired through foreclosures " -- whereby they have become landlords, not following to the protections and in the city and county where there is almost 70% of the population is renters, it is incredibly important that when we talk about local presence of a financial institution we're talking about a financial institution that will ensure and follow the laws that are designed to protect residents that are here. the other point i want to speak to around social responsibility, thinking about the fact that san francisco is a signatory city. wells fargo invested almost $100 million in cca and -- combined. those two groups are responsible for stopping immigration reform that is needed. we would like to ask in coalition with the other groups that are here t

at the banking services, looking at how they will be able to partner with the banks hope that will be more effective with local. i and as the context we are in. berkeley is looking at moving away from wells fargo as one of the banks that they work with. i think that is the context we are in as well. there are choices we can actually make based on information we are getting back from the banks. i think we always hear back from the banks, we do a lot of the philanthropy in our cities, and i think that is great. we welcome philanthropy and it supports a lot of the non-profit organizations. the communities are in dire need of infrastructure, but it is not necessarily the effort being put in by those banks to actually change how they structure the local economy. it responds to the dire consequences of the mobile economy, but it doesn't necessarily help to change that. i'm looking at how we can create conditions to foster that greater change in our banks as well, so they can be effective trying to manage the economy more locally. not the panacea, but it is a good step in that process. you can continue on the present

yes, credit unions and local banks are great. but a true government-owned municipal bank, to me and to the green party, is definitely crucial. we need to make that happen. i want to time in one more time, since we have another commissioner who has not been here recently. we have got to get -- hopefully, right around the time that clean power sf gets approved in the sfpuc, which will probably be sometime in the fall, we really need to get on city-wide broadband municipal fiber-optic. that also dovetails with the smart grid we are going to need for community choice aggregation for clean power sf. i want to say that one more time to make sure that is in the queue for the end of the year. chairperson campos: thank you. is there any other member of the public would like to speak on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. colleagues, if we can continue this item to the call of the chair, we will bring this item back as the need may arise. we have a motion by commissioner avalos, seconded by commissioner pimintel. >> item 6, ex
