housing in our city. it's something that we are addressing but it doesn't happen over night and to me that is what the discussion has evolved into. to me what we are doing when you hear the public comment and i think some people make light of it, when we hear terms of princess of displacement and gentrification, to me that's not funny. that's disrespecting a dial that we are having here as the board of supervisors and what staff has worked on. as a legislator i don't appreciate that and i think it's disrespectful to what has happened here and to demonize workers in one industry and the technology industry, that's crazy, these are san franciscans. we want in tolerance, we need to bridge gaps in our city and creating further divide and distraction is not what i want to see. what we are having as a city talking about the taxing industry and these shuttles have come about because the people that live and work in san francisco. only 20 percent of them leave our city limits because there wasn't enough transport

i'm glad and on behalf of myself, we were able to represent our city and our department very well. lastly, i just -- the event was surprising. i think it was july 7th and it was a big deal, but it was one of those things where we didn't realize how critical this was going to be at the very first moment and i think when you make a big connection and you saw things on the tv and the first responders make a big connection when they see things on scene and when i saw the images and find out what was going on, it was tragic, but it was interesting to see what kind of happened because i was working from one second to the next and not thinking about what i was doing. but my training kicked in so i was thankful. i just wanted to say thank you very much for the award and i appreciate it. >> thank you. [ applause ]. >> thank you very much. >> thank you again. >> thank you. >> thank you, supervisor breed. >> so i have the honor of making the next presentation and i like to invite the university of women, catherine is president and roberta bird. you should have in front of you a payday bar and

within the unified school district have been implementing many approaches but wild to coordinate with our city. many don't have drinking foundation in a couple of middle schools they're drinking fountains were not working. so i think facilities maintenance is critical. and the city can work with the commissions to have a better access within the school district. a hearing i had last year with supervisor chiu and others helped to identify the parks and the lack of accessibility. we want to focus on schools and i want to acknowledge supervisor chiu's legislation about water waste. so thank you to my co-sponsors supervisor chiu and supervisor campos for helping to co-sponsor this hearing request as well. i'm sure you're aware of from our vision zero hearing this week there was a terrible collision that was harming a 3-year-old on a bicycle on fulton this with or week the child was hit crossing the street and is in critical condition i've reached out to the family. this follows a recent collision at the golden gate park senior center. i little on fulton street people speed at the 50 to 60 miles pe

to mention that outreach is critical as well because oftentimes there are projects that happen in our city and then i get the complaints from my constitutes so we need to make sure i know we can do our very, very best to try to reach out to everyone implicated in the community we have to make sure we do our best he efforts when making changes to o a community we want to make changes for pedestrian safety as we increase the population of our city we're making it easy to walk and live here and easy to bike and drive here. and a big part of that making changes will impact that particular area and explaining to individuals you know why we're moving the parking in front of their street or cause champs with driveways in terms of deliveries. there are basic things if we're pro-active and explain it it would make all the difference so outreach is important and i want to thanks commander ali for his efforts. i've noticed only the enforcement efforts but a slight change in behavior of walkers and drivers being pilot enforcement is 0 important i'm looking forward to how we as a city can work together

and this is in clear and violation of our city ordinance. another one was disqualified because she didn't pay child support years ago. this was before the passage of our legislation. owners were finding -- they're not getting renovated and others are getting renovated. we have another resident of vietnamese who purchased a bmr and he lost his job but he was able to make all of his payments from 2000 and 2005 and he drained all of his resources. according to mow, his home and was subsidized by the city. wells fargo soed the property at an auction to an investor at market rate. these are legally binding restrictions on the resales of bmr. mo should have been sold him home. they should have addressed this and helping him with an english proficient to apply and obtain a loan modification through wells fargo. for these reasons today, i'm submitting a hearing request for the policies and procedures. we need to protect the housing. sunday streets will take place on tenderloin. we'll be opening our first healthy corner store legislation store that wa

do more for our children and families that are being pushed out of the city. support now today in 2014 is with that historical understanding with the grassroots and parents need to drive our efforts to not only reauthorizes but as the gentleman from the japanese community said we need to strengthen them and make them better for the future. i want to thank former supervisor and new assemblyman i know we've worked hard on the proposition and angela and lots of work went into this to support our revolutionary peace so i'm proud to stand with my colleagues with the support of rising for that. i want to say that prop h was a third a third a third to preschool to all he was proud to stand with the first 5 commissions and many of the parents in the richmond district thought the city in town hall. they'll be mobile listing and it's k through 12 education and transitional aged group that are part of the broader coalition. i wanted to also acknowledge this new community coalition around the children's reauthorization and strengthening and thank so many others that have

we're a public safety solution when we've got kids active we're contributing to coping our city save we've got people in our recreational programming we're keeping our city healthy we're contributing to other essential serves that get loss in what people consider to be part of the recreation department. i think we're a good investment. and more investment in recreational programming can result in fewer back end dollars from our criminal justice system so more funds would be a good investment >> in terms of safety i know it's been an ongoing discussion around the advantageism we know there are public safety challenges and the park patrol there maybe if we're lucky we have three or four park officers on doubt at one time and when you look at other cities we're definitely low and it seems like the cities that have lower staffing are focused on one type of park or local law enforcement is actively involved in the parks. i think you saw and i told you i was going to do this i suggested to the mayor, we double the size of our park patrol which i think it is 2 and a half million dollars inve

that's not all we did we want to make sure our city is safer and in addition, we started a lifelines council one of the first in the country we'll dial and have meetings with our utility providers that lifeline has been critical because of their silos they have their approach to disaster that was never contemplated with our fire and police and public utilities commission by creating that lifeline council and having a dialog on each party to match how do you get the workforce back into the city to recovery kwiblg what were the proprietors to match up and we didn't have that ability until we created the lifeline council meeting. it's working well, it's just the beginning we have adapt sf another program that mayor bates has signaled the sea levels of are rising as we see it hit ocean beach we have a moofrt plan to respond rather than fight nature we have to understand it. adapt sf is getting all our departments whether the port or public works or all the other entities working together to we can look at the enter dependent agencies can understand their roles and therefore create project

allow people to live in those conditions and continue to isolate them from affordable housing in our citys not what we should be doing as a city we have thousands of people without homes and thousands struggling to keep their homes we have thousands of unused housing that can be used and we have millions of dollars. i'm leery about the supplements in general but those are extraordinary circumstances and require extraordinary measures i don't want this to get lost in the process. we can make a lasting impact on hundreds of residents. i want to thank mayor ed lee when i came into office one of the things he asked me about my 3 top priorities i said number one public housing and number 2 and 3 public housing. living in public housing for over half my life has given me a prospective unlike 0 anyone i know that we need to make a difference in the lives of the constituen constituents. but i see we're having discussions about building affordable housing but this discussion has to make public housing a priority not just public housing as that relates to the housing authority but remaining e retai

overview, as i said before, this has been one of the most successful renewable energy initiatives that our city has ever had. it was launched in the middle of 2008 as a 10-year solar rebate program, as a collaboration between our then mayor newsome, our then assessor recorder phil tackverctiontion, the san francisco public utilities commission, board of supervisors, as well as leader from our work force, [speaker not understood] and business community. ~ tang since 2008 this is a program that has helped more than 2,500 san francisco homeowners, businesses, nonprofits and tenants install solar panels. it has supported over 8 megawatts of solar, qua drewvling the number of solar rooftops in our city ~. it's created hundreds of jobs in companies, clean tech innovators that have chose tone headquarter in our city because of policy innovations like this program. one thing that was interested a few years ago, our then assessor phil tang showed this is a program that pays for itself. it increase he property values which lead to property revenues from our tax. this is a program that has created hundred

on city-owned property, i'm going to continue for three weeks so we can get more information from our city departments and we can actually put together some amendments. some of the city departments have asked for three months' time, some have asked for 45 days' time. i think we already have this legislation on a 30-day rule, 30-day hold. i think we can actually accomplish a lot in three weeks and have it come back here then. so, at the end he of this hearing i'll be holding -- i'll be having a motion to continue for three weeks on item number 6. item number 5 i would like to make a minor amendment that my legislative aide will bring to me that we would like to move that forward here today. i also want to thank sheet metal workers for their work on the first source program. it's, you know, based on their participation and connection with our office we were able to put this legislation forward. and overall, the first source item number 5, the first source program is really enabled the city to anticipate what the needs may be on development and how we can prepare our workforce and have a good

our multi-lingual city, she's ensured that english is not a requirement for getting justice. she has spent significant time untangling commune indicationvs issues involving domestic violence and elder abuse ~ in communities where english is not a primary language. i can also say that she has great respect for the police department. she does. and she has a good working relationship with many of the officers. i've witnessed this. we have one of the best police departments in san francisco. it's not perfect, but the reason why it's because we have a strong police commission. it's important that the police commission have belts. there are only 7 members. this position is the people's position. and i know you have another position that the mayor can appoint, but this is the people's position. currently now you have three former prosecutors out of the seven. you have one former public defender
