i live in the soma area and i'm in the youth commission. i took night school classes with the credit recovery program. i had positive outcomes which it really helped me to get my grades up and be where i'm now. my class now my math teacher helps me a lot and she's genuinely caring about students passing. some challenges were getting home from high school last semester and it was also daylight savings and i would get home at 6:00 p.m. or 6:30 p.m.. most students have a tough time getting home. for example it would be nice to have a nice school class near my house so i wouldn't have timing problems. also to have passionate teachers who care on learning at the night school class itself. and i think that's it and also thank you and i support the credit recovery program and i hope it continues and gives more options. thank you. >> may i ask you a question, are you a senior this year? >> junior. >> are you on track now? >> now i am. >> congratulations. >> thank you. >> are there any other members of the public that would like to speak on this ite

further blocks along market street for the upper mid-market section towards valencia and so many -- soma. it's not just a market problem but needs to be examined citywide. it's not helping the over all problem. that's a snap shop of what we do on market street. i will take any questions. >> i have a couple. >> sure. >> the first one is speaking from a disability council member perspective, i realize it's my understanding that there are a lot of people on the streets who may or may not be housed, may or may not be under care, but have disabilities, many of them hidden and those could be mental health, they could be systemic conditions, long-term illnesses, they could be mental health, ptsd, all sorts of things. i want to be careful that, i would like you to be careful when, i want to ask you if you are careful, are you cognizant of that when you are dealing with folks that might, for instance people that have very good reasons for using drugs. they keep you warm, they stave off hunger, cure pain, and loneliness. as a culture we have to realize that and there would be thinking along those

clearly i'm on poke, pink 18 is a private event space, soma, i think the polk generally speaking seems like it's just getting to a -- every weekend we're -- the traffic is increasing so i'm working with security teams at each venue and working with sfpd to get some bigger picture ideas going. we have a new event on a sunday, another friendly reminder to keep their doors closed during performances so i'm going around reminding people to follow the good neighbor policy and conditions put on the permit. one notice of violation for a karaoke place called the comma on geary that was visited during some rounds i made with richmond district sfpd. i did a ride along this last saturday during the saint patrick's day revelry. we did a notice of violation for operating without a permit. couple of general inspections, 50 mason social club at 50 mason street. they have yet to complete the permit process. brainwash 1122 fo lsom, handed them a good neighbor policy there. brand new interesting situation, there's a place called impact hub at the bottom level of the chronicle building. this particular e

plus i believe they're factoring in the overall size of the soma portfolioso those are the open market operations. that's the portfolio that holds the bond purchases that the federal reserve has been continuing on over these years and that's now at 4 trillion dollars. so federal reserve economists have already estimated about every trillion dollars of asset purchases is equivalent to a 1% or so cut in terms of the fed funds rate. so as far as the federal reserve is concerned when you factor everything together they believe the target fed funds rate is actually minus 2.75% or so. so in their minds i think there is plenty of room for them to begin to raise interest rates and start to paint a picture of the economy in terms of a more normal state. one that responds to traditional monetary policy, follows the fisher rule, follows the taylor rule. and that means something like 1-1.5% on the short term rate. >>of course all of this is looking at the domestic picture. what about the russian conflict? are you concerned about that spilling over into the u.s. economy? >>i'm not too concerned abo

been working very closely with the planning department and their team who is working on the central soma e-i-r which is analyzing folsom street, basically including our project all the way out to 11th, i believe. so, it's, it's, you know, that's part of the reason why we're allowing for a -- we wanted to allow for a potential westbound cycle track in the future. if that portion of folsom street shifts to two-way, that would be kind of a great connector. but as it is, they've redone the striping just within the last few months along folsom street -- second or fourth? to 11th. so, it would be a connection through this area all the way to embarcadaro. >> gotcha, okay. commissioner singh. >> it looks very, very good. >> thank you. >> yeah, but sidewalk is going to be 25 feet? >> on the north side of the street. >> yeah, but what about the traffic? >> so, so, the north sidewalk is going to be 25 feet. it's 10 feet is about what it is now, and then the extra 15 feet is from a setback that the developers are required as part of their development requirement. so, they setback their building 15 f
