sorry, supervisor chan? >> supervisor chan: thank you chair peskin. just a comment. i want to thank supervisor safai for bringing this forward and it's really good to hear from director art to letting us know that it is an extension to access. i think that is critical. vote-by-mail, i do see that as just automatically sent to voters. it's bringing the convenience and encouragement for voters to vote and actively engage. i do actually agree that polling places the day of or even leading to like the weekend before is critical. it's true, someone like me -- i end upholding on to my ballot. because i'm thinking about it. i end up always miss the last day of mailing in and it's always make me feel better to dropping it off and seeing it in there if i'm not voting in in-person and dropping off my ballot at the polling place. i appreciate that. this is an extension of access and not in a place of. i do have one quick question just from my clarification and education, when is going to be the next municipal only election? >> supervisor safai: the next scheduled election is in

supervisor chan? >> supervisor chan: thank you, president walton, and thank you for your remarks. and i want to take this opportunity to acknowledge, you know, and just hearing the chinese american community and their remarks and concerns and i'm thankful for participating in this process. i also want to acknowledge that we need to continue to dedicate our resources to really more research and education and outreach, especially for communities of color and in this case the aapi community around the use of cannabis. if i may, though, and i'm really also glad to hear, president walton, your commitment, you know, for the community about, you know, not allowing the saturation and protecting the community and making sure that, especially in the case, that there could be a less ideal location by the library. if you'd allow, i'd like to state this opinion in chinese as well as what you said. >> president walton: thank you, supervisor chan.

thank you. >> supervisor chan: great. and i think that a lot of folks also think about that any other type of renovation, i think even without this and could you please confirm for us on the record just so that folks actually understand how it works. >> yes, so i mean right now, the department has a pretty robust review of projects that need to go through soilster event at lincoln park. so we have clear procedures in place. i'm happy to go into more details about what we currently undertake. any major projects there such as redesign of the golf course would need to go through that kind of environmental review as well and would need to go through a series of identification, of locations, of potential locations, of human remains and then very careful removal of those remains outreach with dissonant communities, reburial, public interpretation, all of that would be already required and so we're not anticipating that those would change. major changes or those smaller irrigation projects going through different levels of those

supervisor chan? >> supervisor chan: thank you, chair preston. i think i'm actually on a different spectrum of the situation where i'm also going to play into director kirchbaum's analogy that we're walking into the kitchen, that the meal is halfway prepared. is it really going to lean into that analogy, then we should at least know what's on the menu, in that -- i'm comparing it to a restaurant, where we see an efficient sort of lay out and what's on the menu. right now, it's not clear what's on the menu of what's going to be restored and how it's going to be prepared. it's not clear to me a clear decision making process of who's involved and how it's being determined, including your role in this whole situation. i think that's what i'm seeing as we're going through this e-mail hearing, unless you're going to be saying anything specifically to this. but that's my take away. it's not exactly clear how we're going to make these decisions because the data -- we have some baseline of data, but now we have a consultant trying to frame these questions

and i want to thank supervisor chan for her early co-sponsorship. as a city we address our need for affordable housing in self ways, by investing public dollars to build affordable housing and requiring that market-rate developers pick options under the housing program to mitigate the impact. either paying, creating new units offsite or dedicating land for affordable housing. for on site b.m.r.s, the assumption has been that they match the building. recently i became aware of developers wanting to maximize the higher revenue potential creating confusion about the developers inclusionary obligations under our planning code. one of these, 2100 mission, was approveded with on site b.m.r., but is still pending signoff before it is approved. 600 south van ness was completed in 2017, but the b.m.r. has been in limbo ever since. the project has been approved with ownership, affordable units after construction, the developer switched to renting the market-rate units but was trying to retain the b.m.r.s as ownership. the reality is having a small number of a
