bedbugs and the bedbug abatement issue here in san francisco. this legislation will address three primary issues. the first of course is to actually collect data on bedbug abatement. so to require pest control operators to report to the department of public health on bedbug abatements and to have disclosures and create better information by the city and county of san francisco for tenants, our operators and for our property owners. so i wanted to call up two individuals who have been working very steadily on this project. mr. vining and miss chung.

there isn't an order from -- there isn't an order of abatement from dbi. you're sort of stepping into the shoes of the building officials. i understand her question. i'm not exactly sure what the answer is, but something i'm going to have to look into. but i think you basically in effect issue an order of abatement as if you're the director, at the director's hearing. and by coming directly here, then the appeal that would normally happen after that doesn't occur. so, if that makes sense. i think you are then in effect issuing an order of abatement. >> which is what staff would prefer. >> that's what we're doing. >> at the board we're upholding [speaker not understood]. >> we would have the notice of decision that would be attached to that? >> yes. that's my understanding by someone i'm looking at right in front of me. but if it's any different, i'll of course let everyone know right away. >> okay, thank you. >> thank you. >> yes. >> i would like to establish the order of abatement. we'll try to move on with this and [speaker not understood]. i'd appreciat

so, but i did go out -- i did abate those cases. and what's going on is they're wanting -- the reason these cases are included is they're highly inflammatory items. after the fire happened, there was a lawsuit filed because i didn't have enough liability insurance and the city attorney filed a suit four days later without checking any allegationses in the lawsuit supporting them, and they were totally false. and, anyway, there is a push by this department to aid these people. they're including my building in the lawsuit because, frankly, they want to help [inaudible]. all i have to say about this is this is an abuse of power and it's abuse of the public trust. you know, when i look at these papers, i'm a citizen and i think, oh, they must be right because they're part of the building department. but then i know like they're destroying records that i ever completed cases. they shouldn't be destroyed at the housing department. they have an excuse down here that they should still be there in the housing department. and frankly, i was e

not just by complaints, but by pest control operator abatement will help us understand the scope of this throughout the city of san francisco. i did have a number of amendments, which i had articulated prior to public comment and i was hope we could take a motion to amend. >> so moved. >> and we can do that again without opposition. i also just wanted to thank in particular our bed bug working group that has been meeting for the past two years and in particular thank danette lambburg. josh vining, tina chung, ben ing, seth kathman, brad bishop and joyce lam and this is collection not just of organizers and tenants burb , but our pest control operators. i want to thank the department of public health barbara, karen kahn and doctor batti and to the department of building inspection. we'll continue to work on this. this is the just the first of many steps, but i think the uniform regulations from public health department. >> move forward with recommendation. >> we have a motion to move forward with recommendation and we can do that without opposition.

we are requesting you to deny the appeal and move forward with the order of abatement. thank you. >> thank you. >>> hi, my name is denise marney. i'm a peer counselor at the collaborative. which means when tenants come in and they're afraid to talk to people of authority, they can talk to a peer, somebody who lives in the tenderloin and knows what they're going through. with people like us, there's about 10 of us. i've been dealing with it 2-1/2 years and i've talked with numerous tenants from the war field. * many of them no longer come to the collaborative because they've left the building because they can't get their needs met. habitability as you heard is increasingly a problem. in june i saw a tenant who is here today, arthur gray, who came in and wanted to get a life line telephone. so, we provide low-income telephone services for tenants. and most hotels in the area have a phone jack in the rooms. arthur's room didn't have a phone jack. typically what we do is write a letter requesting that a phone jack be installed with ample time. this was in june. arthur doesn

work together to implement these new requirements and collectively continue to work to address and abate metal theft. we have a representative from the police department here, we have the lieutenant o sullivan from the bay view police station, he's here to answer any questions that you may have, but given the length of this meeting i thought it would be best to spare a long presentation and just go ahead and go to public comment. >> okay, colleagues, let's open this up for public comment. is there anyone from the public that would like to speak? please come forward. >> ladies and gentlemen, my name is mark med, i'm the director of government affairs for sims metal management which has a metal recycling facility at the end of pier 70. i want to focus my remarks on just two things. one sft general comment that we are as worried, concerned, anxious and otherwise about metal theft. we have done much both locally and in the state of california to try and combat it. i will offer this. effective metal theft deterrents and prevention rests on really 3 legs of the same stool. one of course, is fo
