which a city with a lot of football but i don't think it's a football city here's her legend and current manager mikhail kurtz's response when i asked her when it's a football city. it could be better of course but that looks at the change of this season that's now the newly promoted known berlin from the east and heritage in the west both represent berlin in the bundesliga something you can't say for anywhere else in germany. is this just season for linda finally becomes a football city. or has it always been one there's constantly a game on got the most teams playing at every level in the country it's not like people don't love soccer here but there are reasons it's not seen as a football city let's start with those. early and has a historical feature that sets it apart from just about every city in the world even today all this is played out in the shadow of the berlin wall. it's not just the dark rooms that make berlin special few places on earth have witnessed such a time or 2 us past it's the city and it's this history that continues to define. the city was smack in the center of t

this has city wide impacts. catering to tech has city wide impacts. at least update the existing fee, and i ask this commission to please support this legislation as written and proposed. >> next speaker, please. >> commissioners, lauren. i am a long time resident of district 5 and member of senior and disability action. i urge you to support supervisor haney's proposal for the jobs housing linkage fee update. this will relieve the enormous pressure to displace current residents, largely seniors and people with disabilities and others of low to moderate incomes in order to make way for new office workers. matching new jobs with new affordable housing, not luxury housing, is way overdue. for decades the city forced seniors to bear the burden of the housing crisis through displacement. office developers were given free reign to build and profit. the bill came due to the residents of san francisco. we paid and continue to pay in suffering, anxiety, insecurity and, yes, even death. we have been vilified for wanting to hold onto our homes. that includes po

i was a student and i fell in love with the city. i still love this city. i always said we have got to do something. whatever i have, i got it through hard work. being in this wonderful diversified city. we talked a lot about it. this came about in 2007 when there was a melt down and i was able to purchase these. that is when me and sammy, she is an advocat of foster and homeless kids. this came about. i said maybe we can do something about it. finally here we are. thernext step is the foundationd get the super structure. i want to thank the wonderful mayor. i am so proud of you. you are a wonderful mayor. you are a great person. i want to tell my brother-in-law who designed this property, my kids and this is all my family. i love them all. it is great to be here. too many persons. (laughter). it is a great thing. i am so blessed. i asked my wife to be by my side. if i make a mistake she will say stage right. i think i have done go, right? she gave me a list and said memorize this. i said i will do this. that is not me, i have to talk how i feel. that is ho

of the city. our finding of fact six said, unless the city increases funding levels, it will be several decades, i.e., after the uscs predicts one or more major earthquake will occur, before the southern parts of the city of a high-pressure, multi-sourced emergency firefighting water supply. the mayor's office and various agencies have disagreed with that, saying there haven't been firm funding decisions made, and when you go 10, 20 years out, nobody knows. while that may be true, we took our finding, and it's cited in our report on page 33, footnote 126, but that language came from an emergency firefighting water system management oversight committee presentation of march 4, 2019, where it said on page 32: "build-out would take approximately 35 years using current funding rate, assuming a five-year building cycle." it is clear from the grand jury's report, the civil grand jury feels that 35 years to adequately protect large parts of the city is simply unacceptable and too long. and so we have rec

people in big cities not only need to be able to move around efficiently they have to share the city's public spaces at the hamburg hafen city university researchers have developed digital models to analyze behavioral patterns such as where people tend to congregate. to hope 1st of all we research how public squares work we track people who are out walking their dogs shopping hanging out to see how public places function and we collaborate with companies in other research institutes who also have an interest in public places working well and attracting people to the end of the things go to dog and office. building contractors can see if their projects meet criteria and compare potential sites in terms of advantages and disadvantages proximity to a research institute or an airport for example. in this way advances in digital technology are giving city dwellers new opportunities to enhance the urban experience. and thus reducing the level of stress something we could probably all benefit from stress can be caused by so many things noisy car engines traffic jams sirens well basically all

infections in our city. i'm proud to report that from 2017-2018, new infections dropped by 13% declining below 200 for the first time ever in our city's history. while this is incredible progress, we still have a lot of work to do, especially among certain populations like our african american community. we are committed to doing that work. still, it's worth recognizing that we've come a long way. this kind of progress would have seemed impossible in the 1980s when aids first ripped through our lgbt community and our city. decimating a generation. people were dying at astonishing and frightening rates. people who just, months before, had been healthy and vibrant. but thanks to the actions taken in san francisco by the community and organizations coming together under the leadership of the department of public-health, we turned the tide. together, people did not work to heal our city. well, today, we are confronted with another public-health crisis. we are seeing people with mental illness and addictions suff

city college and the main campus. you really have to think about what they the use is for and the impact. i'm all for affordable housing, you know, i believe in biking, what you really have to think about all the people that can't bike here, to that location or, you know, it is very valuable to have a parking lot, so that is open to everybody that wants to be able to park there, and it is frustrating, and i'm sure you are frustrated, too, that there is a reason why it has dragged on for so long because people are really awakening to this. i am glad we are taking time to make sure of this. and also, i am also disabled. so we had to think of the mobility for people who need to need to get to class on time. parking is very limited. thanks for your time. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hello. sorry, i'm a little nervous. this is my first time at any of these meetings. watching people speak, it is incredibly inspiring. sorry. my name is jess and i have been a student since general 20th and a proud recipient of free

their job is to balance the budget in these cities. flint was under emergency manager at the time, so it was in state control. it had about 4 different emergency managers shuffling in a not doing that period. while the city council did not vote to join the pipeline, their vote did not matter, it was more like a rubber-stamping. they could have voted against it, and state officials still voted for it. so while the city council voted in favor of this, it is kind of a moot point because they really did not have any power at all. i think their motivation was that they were being told that their water rates were going to be less expensive each month, and that it could potentially lucrative,omething because flint made for the first time in a really long time, have the opportunity to treat and sell its own water instead of buying its water from detroit. host: dawn in wisconsin, good morning to you. caller: good morning, thank you for taking my call. i guess at some point along the way. , the citizens of that city and that area voted for their

drug overdoses in our city. we are offering these accommodations are first responders today, we want to recognize those community members who are also part of the solution. we are working with these groups to come up with accommodation for them, at a later date. we are also working with community partners to schedule a number of narcan trainings around district six this month, including one here at city hall for my fellow supervisors and for city hall staff. we need to address the deadly crisis with systemic changes, more access to narcan, and we also need to make sure that each of us are prepared as these heroes were to save a life if we are needed. at this time, it is my pleasure to provide certificates of honor to the following first responders for their exemplary service to our community, saving the lives of our friends, neighbors and family members. acting section chief, paramedic eddie byrd, officer matthew parker, officer joseph, officer andrew clifford, officer holbrook, officer townsend, officer costa,

the city of san francisco? >> well, i actually worked on a housing bond with the mayor and the other board of supervisors for $600 million, that's going to be on the ballot, prop a. that's one way that we can help build affordable housing and buy existing buildings with tenants in them. but it's also looking at -- i actually did a blueprint and found city land, private land. i actually found private land over at mcdonald's, when they wanted to sell on haigt and stanyon. we should be looking at city land to build it on, too. that's a lot cheaper to do that. still because of the cost of construction, it's still $800,000. so we have to look many different places of how we're going to do this. but this affordable housing bond will help us with the start. we should put it in capital planning. we should put housing funding in our capital plan. this is what's really different and people keep saying status quo. but they're doing different things as we move forward. it's not status quo. and i feel like as we move forwar

but the city can and must do more. recent san francisco history is full of projects like the metrion centre, the chase center and all without parking and all to lead to traffic apocalypse. we got a great civic amenity. this is to accommodate the influx of new residents and the projected increase in ccuf students. new houses on ocean avenue add car, foot and bike traffic. they need to avoid worse gridlock and in keeping with the city's first policy, the first time we heard the words transit tonight. in addition to the cac, i serve as the adviser committee. from that perch, i can see ocean geneva and ocean avenue as high injury corridors and that means there have been enough serious injuries due to the design of the streets that they are due and fundable for complete resign. in short, true transit first regioning of circulation for the neighborhood is needed and has to be implemented. at our september 30th, cac meeting, they will present plan for the ocean avenue safety project. i hope to hear about a safe, beautiful and

the city needs to enforce the law against uber. it reclassifies their independent contractors as employees. the city also can take aim at uber and lyft, the corporations for a business practice that violates our local traffic laws. >> moderator: thank you. thank you. >> let's as a city sue them, get an injunction and force them to geo fence so they don't pick up and drop off in violation of local law. let's do something.

this did not go over well with the city of kansas city. who was quite content to forget the thing was there until some one else decided to claim it. somebody says we forget it is there until some one else says, hey wait, we wants that. and now, no,t. no, that is our monument. kansas city says no, we are not going to do that. the park board says the owner, and the artist specifically chose the site for this must be full sculpture. it would demean this culture to move it to a small little park in a crowded area. in old westport. it needs to stay where it is. westport lost the battle a second time. they had wanted it in the 1920's and again in the 1980's. they responded by finally erecting a more elaborate monument of their own. still not as big as the one in penn valley park. they put up their own monument to westport related people. notably they abandoned the , pioneer mother and put up a sculpture of three men. who are all much more associated with commerce than family settlement. the men depicted here are a rur trader and the founder west

the city's built environment. to this end, i'm going to focus on three priorities of the preservation community i hope any candidate will share. first, we urge you to hire a director who will prioritize and expedite completion of the city-wide historic resources survey. this is a tough recommendation made by spur in 2014, in a joint policy paper on historic preservation. while cities los angeles have already completed their survey, we don't know what is significant about the city's historic neighborhoods and built environment. as a component of the city-wide survey, it should identify eligible historic districts for future designation. second, we urge completion of the historic. this has languished for 10 years and will help the commission and the new planning director balance priorities such as the need to increase housing production and other planning goals with the need to protect our historic resources. third, we urge this director to rehire and fill the historic preservation officer position recently vacated

we just can't let this to continue to happen in our city. mayor breed said the response to the homelessness and the mental health crisis is compared to the aids crisis. we must make that real now. we need one person to pull the city departments together and make them accountable. set a 6 months deadline. it's incredible that they just coordinated for the first time to compare their lists of the 250 sickest, most neediest people on our street. how is it that two departments had the same list and didn't compare it? >> good morning, i'm one of the directors of the mid market community benefit district. i want to thank supervisor matt haney for taking the leadership on this critical matter and i want to thank everybody's support to advance this. i have worked in the area of mid market, soma, tenderloin, and civic center for the past 10 years. it is not getting better. our organization supports not only this task force but hopefully as quickly as possible, meaningful legislation and meaningful solutions to really address this era of drug dealing.

set the city on the verge of famine. that ifaulle argued allies don't move now, they were risking a humanitarian disaster and perhaps the destruction of paris itself. as it happened a number of times early in the war, de gaulle and eisenhower, two extraordinary personalities, were putting that relationship to the test. but events in paris would dry eisenhower's decision-making as much, if not more so than de gaulle's urgings. on monday, august 21, that tentative truce that organized completely fell apart. more radical elements in the resistance forces refused to recognize the truce. the fanatical elements of the german forces, the s.s., agreed and refusing to acknowledge the truce so the battles were on once again. hugo's lesictor miserables -- they began to construct barricades out of whatever they could find, abandoned vehicles to stones, tearing up paris' cobbled st reets. wifeman sergeant told his that day, i have a feeling things are going to get bad here. very bad. well, the effectiveness of these soldiers andot by

tanis' passing is a tremendous loss, not only for city college but for our entire city and she will be greatly missed by all of those who lives she touched. she is survived by her husband, darwin, father paul, and mother jean and brother noah and the rest i submit. >> clerk: thank you, supervisor. supervisor marr. >> thank you, madam clerk. i'm calling for a hearing on a b.l.a. report on jobs and housing, that is the analysis of the alignment of the city's housing production to workforce growth by income level. in public discussion about solutions to our housing crisis, far too much focus has been paid to simplistically to increasing housing supply generally and not enough on how rapid and uneven job growth drives housing demand in our housing affordability crisis. there's concern among the residents in my district and throughout the city that the housing that we have been producing is not meeting the needs of our growing workforce and not addressing the affordability challenges of low-to-moderate income workers. the jobs housing fit analysis can inform future development projects and

the city also has something called housing preferences. this is mandated through our city laws. we have preferences for cop holders, people who were formally displaced from san francisco do to redevelopment actions. in the western addition. we have a displaced tenant housing preference, this is a preference for people who have been evicted do to an eviction or fire. then we have a neighborhood preference. if someone is applying for, a unit in a project. helping residents to stay one that neighborhood. finally we have a live/work in san francisco preference which captures the large segment of applicants. through that lottery system, people that fit into these preferences are prioritized essentially. >> okay, who is next? alex. >> my question is, affordable housing, i know some of affordable housing is 1500-2500, speaking on people with disabilities, most of them receive ssi, does that consider qualify for those "affordable housing"? how would you, or the city fix that? because, as you know, the city of san francisco, when they are doing affordable housing the amount is already --

san francisco is a city with a heart but we also have to be a city with a memory. a memory not only for the commitments we have kept but also the ones we have failed to keep. for too long our public housing communities were one of those failed commitments. we are changing that with our programs where we have rehabilitated over 2500 public housing units. [applause.] and through hope sf, which is revitalizing and france forming communities in hunters view and right here in sunny dale and with the reconstruction of the long overdue transformation of the san francisco housing authority. we are building and rehabbing housing, creating stronger and healthier communities and investing in the people who live there. we owe it to them to keep our commitment and make a difference for this community and those across the city. with every decision we make, i want to make sure that equity and accountability are at the forefront of our minds. we have to be focused on people in all neighborhoods, like the people who live here, who for too long have been living with broken pipes, mo

we are are to need affordable housing the city' city's nexus e should charge $193. supervisor haney has a modest proposal, but let's face it, people in the whatever are claiming it is only feasible if we jack it up by 10 bucks. that is not going to cut it, and that is bad public policy. to give you a daunting statistic. a baby born in the year this jobs housing linkage fee was last updated would have already completed college and would be looking for work. if that baby was born in san francisco, they would have a hard time finding housing no matter what. i am glad we are going to basically like with new development and with great power to affect development comes great responsibility. we need the housing. i am also glad that 30% of the funds will be going to new supportive housing. i live in an rfo. i it is on the task force. i don't want people with low income tenants competing with less low-income people for sro housing. we shouldn't be fighting for scraps. i am just like sickened by the idea. if we max out the fee, it is going to stop all office development. well
