i grew up in the excelsior direct in illegal a.d.u. units because we didn't have enough legal housing in san francisco, the price too high and back then it was not clear how to make legal a.d.u. units. near my house in the excelsior district there's many small two to three-story apartment buildings now illegal to build. housing is becoming more expensive in the excelsior district in accordance with e.i.r. predictions. so we need more housing and a.d.u.s are helpful but not enough. san francisco can't do it alone. homes in my working class neighborhood, they're selling for $1.5 million, $1.6 million. i'm encouraged by the protections for the neighborhoods like mine. i saw mine was part of the gray area. we need state law to get more housing built in the job rich areas and palo alto and coop coopertino. and we need more so they don't dump all their engineers in my neighborhood. my mother needs to find a new house that's affordable preferably without driving because she doesn't drive very safely and affordable housing is predominantly fun

i had a 25-year-old intern who grew up in excelsior and did not know how to ride a bike. was not a san francisco kid and he learned to ride his bike at sunday streets and he is now a cyclist. he was an adult, that what we can hopefully do is introduce activity for kids earlier in their lives through programs like sunday streets and place streets. lastly, working with partners in neighborhood groups to activate parks through organized events, activities and unstructured play katie talked about the park activations that we do. we work with a huge number of community groups, the ymca, local merchants groups, neighborhood groups, et cetera to activate and create activities along the way that bring people out and interest them, and then, i think the last slide is you. >> we will just end with some opportunities to deepening our partnership and more importantly , deepening our impact of getting people to get outside and recreate and get exercise and enjoy here in san francisco and that we as a city are supporting that. so deepening the partnership, opening parks along the route

they'll be buying up properties in the bay view and excelsior and developing them and not giving us the property support to provide all the services you need when you increase the city by huge amounts. we've lived through this the last five years and it's been pretty wonky. imagine what will happen with this. you have to be kidding. thank you so much. >> commissioner: thank you. next speaker, please. >> my name is lori leaderman. this place as a target on san francisco. it's a deregulation bill. the city doesn't have the data to conduct the lookbacks in the single-family homes where many rentse rentsers -- renters it's a giveaway to developers and the developers who will at their sole discretion decide which exceptions they decide to take while allegedly transit orients there's no provisions for impact fees. according to staff, rh-1 and rh-2 lots thus produce no new affordable housing. at the same time, mandatory increases in height and floor area ratios do not require a minimum number of units owning a wide door for the monster homes invading city neighborhood and sure to be in demand

there were areas bayview, mission, excelsior that it could be applied to. that is where we got the biggest push from the advo cats. then 40%. now 25 makes it. i just think we are going backwards. i feel like we need to fight for at least the 40. i mean i will definitely. i think we should really push the state for 40. i just do. i think it is something that if we are trying to preserve these neighborhoods with cultural districts and everything else. we have to save the people that live there and give them choices. one other question. with any of the certificate of preference do you have the numbers how many people just didn't make enough money to qualify for affordable housing? >> i don't have the actual numbers. that is a real problem. >> it is huge everywhere. my district i know and supervisor walton's district it is prevalent because of my prior job i was out there trying to figure out how can we get people in the housing in the neighborhood? one of the biggest hurdles we worked on. people do not make the 35 as as 55% -- 55% ami. the affordable housing i

brad williams, excelsior. i very much appreciate commissioner dejesus bringing up miss appropriation of -- misappropriation of department assets. i think it's something we came up in war reports. controlled assets was controlled via chain of command and orders. maybe in our environment now that's not really the way to go if you consider, say, a large investment bank or a -- any for-profit entity. they have certain controls that are lacking, when it comes to these -- these assets, particularly such as a report or item that might be described as intellectual property. i think there's been a lack of looking into this. particularly, honest how the auditors can base a strict liability based on the lack of internal controls and the per have the fact that there aren't adequate internal controls, i believe lends to that possibility and this is just one narrow area. if you think of instead of this body as, say, the s.e.c. were the regulator, it would be very different. thank you. >> president hirsch: thank you. any oth

the two deadly crashes happened in are still and excelsior neighborhoods. one person was hurt when a wrong way driver crashed into a tree in the tenderloin and another was hurt in the pacific heights neighborhood. in a statement, the agency said "we never treat these crashes as accidents, rather they are a wake-up call to recommit ourselves to ending traffic fatalities on our street." >>> all the commotion, a member of the oakland school board under fire tonight for physical confrontation she had with a striking teacher during a protest and the video of the incident shows a board member putting her hand on the teachers throat. the board member tried to push past a group of picketers. >> we have reaction for both women. >> reporter: this happened during a protest yesterday when teachers lock school board members from getting inside the auditorium where a meeting was scheduled to take place. at times, the confrontation became physical. >> -- >> reporter: this video taken by teacher, daphne craig shows oakland school board member, th te ache she told us by pho

brett edwards from excelsior. in the wake of the sheriff's department asking for some oversight from d.p.a. and interest and regulations from this body, i have some concerns about that. i see that this body is strained and perhaps doesn't have enough resources currently. i wonder if commissioners have -- >> second. [laughter]. >> any availability of saying staffing from week to week, it seems like you do a lot of your own back office work. i don't know, i think it would serve all the citizens that are -- with some ability to have some staffing. >> thank you. >> if i could give a standing ovation right now. [laughter]. >> are you volunteering to work with us? >> any other public comment? >> good evening, again. i would like to use the overhead i'm sorry i always come and i talk about my son, but i haven't shown the other unsolved homicides that have been happening in the city of san francisco, and the majority, maybe a couple of these homicides on this poster are only -- only two of them have been solved, but the r

when an apartment or little place in the mission or excelsior or in bay view hunters point or tenderloin. that's the tipping point where visitors come and take away a parent or guardian in the middle of the night and will not be seen again. all i want to say is as we look at the totality of this injustice which is not a positive of our democracy, we need to look at what's happening today and the other forms that go under different names but yet are destroying the whole mission and the reason why we're here as a city and as a nation. for freedom and dignity and human rights and respect and the rule of law but we can all work together to move forward. the fact you've done this so many years and we know so many families where you want to be four years ago and his family was incarcerated with the japanese homes and we can go on and on and site histories. the missions here with the number of our native americans, i know it's affected our families and veterans that were taken away and put into a particular hostile or shipped back to a country they were here. all these things are part of the di

tenderloin, mission, bayview, excelsior, i have challenged that. this year, i'd like to move forward with challenging why our rec and parks process and programs process is not equitiable. for example, camp mather is not affordable for many kids. my parents worked a lot of over time and second jobs, and it was my responsibility to take care of my younger sister. i took her to parks, and we had to walk a mile to get to the park. one of my favorite cities is mexico city, and their parks are so amazing. everybody there feels they have a community gathering space, so i would appreciate being reappointed to this community and continue serving on prosac until my next term expires, and then continuing to serve on prosac. >> chair ronen: thank you. is there any member of the public who wishes to speak on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. [gavel]. >> chair ronen: i just want to thank you for your work on this committee. it's extraordinary. i also want to thank you for bringing up the nonaffordablity of camp mather. i go there every year with

. >> brad edwards, excelsior. i'm a little shocked to find that commissioner hirsch rejects the finding of the sunshine ordinance task force. i further believe that while yes, there are temporal issues with any action or complaint, either it's within the statute or it's not, and that's then perhaps not germane, but what might be is the letter, and that turman no longer being with us, to me, that's more evidence you don't have the availability of his input and that's more reason to retake the vote. for me, the most important thing, i think, is to note that commissioner dejesus is a profile in courage if i've ever seen one, and i'm very appreciative of her. [applause] >> and i have a copy for sergeant kilshaw for the body of the minutes. >> president hirsch: thank you. next speaker. >> oh, wrong one. >> hello. my name is dale again. yeah, i would ask that you not only accept the findings of the sunshine task force but that you retake the vote. i don't find the transparency if the vote is illegal that you still count

brad edwards, excelsior district. i wanted to speak briefly on the matrix contract. i was very pleased to see that back in i think october when there were two consulting firms selected. i see there's about $500,000 available. i'm curious about the methodology in one respect where they're speaking about police. in one, there's just police. i agree, say, with the department they're create -- with the concept they're creating. i would say i would like to see it be addressed, but the d dispairate duties that we ask them to do because these are such a wide ranging set of tasks, i'd love to hear any comment on that which you may have. also, will provide sergeant kilshaw with a -- with a copy to the body of the minutes in the public comment section. thank you. >> president hirsch: thank you. any other public comment on items 3-a through d? good evening. >> good evening. magic altman. when i see police talking to citizens, i go over. so i other day, i -- the other day, i saw a black man in handcuffs on a cold and wet floor, obviously in mental distress. i asked if he was oka

i live in the excelsior, but i can't help but notice that all of this attention and these emergency actions is happening when a pretty, young white wome woman has been killed. when a few years ago, a few blocks from my house, a middle-aged, hispanic man was killed and nothing happened. we know where the high-injury corridors are in the city, and we can act quickly. so we're in the 21st century. our science has advanced since the 20th century, and we know that traffic deaths are not accidents. they're the predictable result of bad road design. so we need the protected bike lanes here right away, where we have the most traffic, and we also need the protected bike infrastructure to deal with the high-injury corridors throughout the city. >> chairman: thank you very much. next speaker, please. >> margare margaret mccarthy. >> i'm a resident of the hateashbury neighborhood. i look forward to further action. but what happens next? what happens after this item is approved? every life lost on our streets is irreplaceable. and the injuries done to the families, the scars on the community, and in the
