commission and the sfp. u.s. across 15 years. commissioner crowley served as our port commissioner from 2010 to 2012. many of us had the privilege of working with him specifically on the maritime preservation policy which continues to protect critical waterfront assets and jobs. today i respectfully request that we adjourn today's port commission in his honor and as we move forward commissioners, i'm inspired and dedicated by the dedication of our team, the vision of our commissioner and the resilience of our waterfront community. thank you for your leadership. it remains an honor to serve alongside you during this pivotal time for the port and san francisco. that concludes my report. thank you. thank you. great report. we will now open it up for public comment. is there any public comment in the room on the executive directors report seeing them? do we have anyone on the phone ? >> at this time there are no callers for public comment. thank you. >> commissioner lee nothing really to say other than i'm glad

that is his role on the commission.his role is not to set our agenda and therefore there are emails between all of us both yourself and thore which clearly show that when on times that i've asked for agenda items and other commissioners have asked for agenda items to be placed on the agenda so that we can discuss them publicly or in closed session meetings that has not happened. that's factual. i also love thore as a person and i do appreciate some of the work that he has done on oci but that does not negate the facts of the statements that i made. if i could if you don't mind if i go ahead director yeah. thank you. just a point of order. i think you pulled the item to be heard to potentially continue it. >> are you guys discussing the the potential continuance? the commission typically will take a motion, take a second then have a discussion about the substance of the continuance or not i recommend and jimmy agreed that you take either have that motion and have that seconded if you want to discuss further but it's the

i joined the youth commission. i had beener interested in san francisco politics freshman in high school and volunteered on local political campaign and district attorney election and got into that process, and from there did more campaigning and got into youth advocacy and activism in the city. and from there i sort have (inaudible) city hall on certain issues and wanted to be on the flip side and see what i could do in city hall for young people and a voice for young people and are the youth commission was the perfect opportunity for that so why i decided to apply. thankfully i was appointed. >> great. how many years have you been on? >> second term as well so beginning september 2021. >> every turm is one year? >> yeah, because people age out so quickly and people go away for college so we try to make it like a school year roughly. >> okay. nice. thank you. >> hi. i'm hayden. i'm a junior this year at (inaudible) my first term on the commission but what drew me to it is like emily i have always been super fascin

i feel that the commission acted responsibly.i tried really hard not to be suffer from a bias related to can you speak up please commissioner swick i have your microphone working i yeah yeah questionable. this is not my technology night . i can hear you better now. i think that the commission acted responsibly. i think the commission didn't act with with prejudice. that's why i asked the representative from the commission whether it's 2 p.m. and a normal cut off date or is that just something that was arbitrary? i think i see it differently is i think is that that your standard operating procedure she said yes and didn't give cause for many exceptions i tried not to be prejudiced by the the list of of things that the operator did not use good judgment on by playing music at the wrong time and doing the wrong thing. i just simply i think that the commission acted in a in a proper fashion and if at some later point this a restaurant or or entertainment area i don't know exactly what it is that i call it a restaurant because they se

ethics commission bylaws. director ford would you mind just briefly summarizing how we've done this in the past if i didn't expect that but for sure that that's fine. so typically the way that it's worked is commissioners can nominate each other. they can nominate themselves if a commissioner nominates another commissioner, the nominated commissioner should say if they want to accept that or not. and i know in speaking with you that you thought it would be helpful if if the commissioner wants to accept a nomination perhaps they could speak a bit about what their priorities or their approach might be if the commissioner want to have some kind of conversation around it. in the past there hasn't been a ton of conversation about it. so if the commissioner wanted to have that that would help the nominated commissioner perhaps could initiate that and then each commissioner votes and you say the name of the commissioner that you want and i think we would just have kevin call a roll call vote and each commissioner wou

members of the public may address the commission on matters that are within the commission's jurisdiction and are not already on today's agenda. >> are there any members of the public who wish to comment on this item? only? madam president, we have no speakers. >> all right. public comment is now closed. next item please. next item is item five nomination and election of the commission on the environment president and vice president. >> this item is for discussion and possible action. >> three hours. could you please provide a summary of the process for commission elections? >> yes we will begin with the presidency and we will accept nominations for this position only following nominations and discussion there will be public comment and a vote. we will then repeat the process for the position of vice president including nominations, discussion public comment and a vote commissioners can nominate themselves and nominations do not require a second in order for the commission to vote on a nomination. are there any questions regarding the process for president and vice president elections. se

planning commission members. my name is brianna morales with the housing action coalition operating as their san francisco organizer. strongly supports the housing element and this city's efforts to expand housing opportunities while also protecting tenants. this proposal is a critical step in making sure that san francisco successfully builds upon s.b. 3333 a state law that includes replacement of demolished buildings and tenant protections. what's before you today isn't about changing those protections. it's about making sure that we have local process in place that aligns with state law and serves the people who need it. building more housing is a core part of tenant protections. it gives people more options to stay in their communities and helps our city critical housing needs. >> we understand concerns around demolition and salt presentation about the infrequency of them taking place in the city. >> however, we advocate for thoughtful steps in addressing demolitions and this proposal makes sure that when it

that is his role on the commission.his role is not to set our agenda and therefore there are emails between all of us both yourself and thore which clearly show that when on times that i've asked for agenda items and other commissioners have asked for agenda items to be placed on the agenda so that we can discuss them publicly or in closed session meetings that has not happened. that's factual. i also love thore as a person and i do appreciate some of the work that he has done on oci but that does not negate the facts of the statements that i made. if i could if you don't mind if i go ahead director yeah. thank you. just a point of order. i think you pulled the item to be heard to potentially continue it. >> are you guys discussing the the potential continuance? the commission typically will take a motion, take a second then have a discussion about the substance of the continuance or not i recommend and jimmy agreed that you take either have that motion and have that seconded if you want to discuss further but it's the

item six election of commission officers until the end of the agenda.discussion i propose possible action regarding proposed regulation decision and order in the matter of labor and working families. slate and daniel anderson mr. demicco. >> good morning. i have a note to congratulate the new chair so i'll just scratch that out since we saw the order. >> so this case involves respondents, labor and working families. slate which is a general purpose committee and their consultant daniel anderson. it's a case involving coordinated spending too. as a reminder. so basically in this case coordinated spending with this staff of the general purpose committee being their consultant and the staff of a supervisor campaign for supervisor dean preston turned out what was otherwise an independent expenditure into a contribution under law and that led to violations including a contribution over the limit and inappropriate reporting of the contribution as an expenditure. >> so i'm going to basically break this into three parts and briefly talk about the coordination a

and you know, the first to commission meetings are the first two commission meetings of the year. always very, very crowded and that's all i have. so we will be working to populate future agendas and so if you have any suggestions, please always let us know. are there any questions since then? let's move on to a public comment. >> are there any members of the public who wish to comment on this item? madam president, we have no speakers. >> thank you. public comment is now closed. next agenda item please. >> next item is item 14 adjournment. the meeting is adjourned. the time is 7:51 p.m.. thank you for joining us and s.f. gov tv >> # >> >> >> >> you are watching san francisco rising. >> hi, you are watching san francisco rising. reimagining our city. he's with us to talk about how our library's economic recover. mr. lambert, welcome to the show. >> thank you. i'm glad to be here. >> i know it's been difficult to have books going virtual. have we recovered? >> yes, we are on our way. our staff stepped up big time during the pandemic to respond to the health emergency. since last ma

include the airport commission, the board of appeals, elections commission, ethics commission, health commission, mta board among many others. by my count there is about 23 for cause commissions. the police commission is not one of them. >> the reason that distinction is important is ithows that our city charter thoughtfully contemplate dates that some commissions are intended to have independently empowered appointees and some other commissions including the police commission are not designed that way. police commissioners are generally accountable to their appointing authority and that is by design. the narrow role we play here in this hearing is akin to an advice and consent role. it isn't necessary for us to reach any factual conclusion or to make any finding to consent to the mayor's removal of his own appointee or his appointment for that matter. and so for me it's a very simple analysis that comes down to whether we should honor the committee necessary for the two co-equal branches of our local the legislative and the executive to govern effectively and well and that's especial

i joined the youth commission. i had beener interested in san francisco politics freshman in high school and volunteered on local political campaign and district attorney election and got into that process, and from there did more campaigning and got into youth advocacy and activism in the city. and from there i sort have (inaudible) city hall on certain issues and wanted to be on the flip side and see what i could do in city hall for young people and a voice for young people and are the youth commission was the perfect opportunity for that so why i decided to apply. thankfully i was appointed. >> great. how many years have you been on? >> second term as well so beginning september 2021. >> every turm is one year? >> yeah, because people age out so quickly and people go away for college so we try to make it like a school year roughly. >> okay. nice. thank you. >> hi. i'm hayden. i'm a junior this year at (inaudible) my first term on the commission but what drew me to it is like emily i have always been super fascin

there has to be a commissioned report at the origin of what's called the commission, the commission report. the commission report has to be there by don't. okay, but the report still exists, whether it's type of the button bottom one is on people in the report, a key witness who was you'll catch a cut and quote, trusted employee, testified that you were leading meetings about the torture of detainees that he died. he was 36 years old just days before you testified to the commission. vinson fernando is his name and he testified that you wanted the suspects of beth alonda quote, destroyed. that's what he tested for. you never gave me evidence. you did give evidence no report that day, but there are nothing to be found against me that but that doesn't mean cams after the established in a novel form a housing scheme. at any case, that's probably not a bully environment that nothing to be found that in st. vincent stated the what he understood under the circumstances was it midst of it from a single one to the suspects, destroy nothing for the sense of despair there. i've had nothing to going w

members of the public may address the commission on matters that are within the commission's jurisdictionand are not on today's agenda and the commission values civic engagement and encourages respectful communication at the public meeting. we ask that all public comment be made in a civil and courteous manner and that you refrain from the use of profanity. thank you. >> remote callers please raise your hand if you wish to provide comment on item four. are there any members of the public present who wish to comment on this item? seeing none. moderator are there any college who have their hand raised? >> ms. linear there is one caller with the hands raised. >> thank you. caller your line has been unmuted. you have two minutes. >> thank you. this is peter direct buyer policy director for the wyoming river trust. the chaos in washington d.c. should remind us how important checks and balances are. republicans in congress are afraid to stand up to trump even when the policies hurt their constituents and i'm sure many will eventually pay a price. for a long time the lack of checks and balances

friendship commission.he's also has very close ties with a number of projects that are focused in this neighborhood commercial and otherwise just close connections to the to the community itself. >> the work was installed in two mobilizations by outdoor fine art services and is permitted through a use agreement with recreation and parks as owners of the sidewalk zone at lower grade highway and a major encroachment permit with public works as owners of the judah and 43rd avenue sidewalk. >> a few words about the artwork itself. pacific transit evokes san francisco's unique western edge where the geometry of the urban grid meets the wild openness of the shoreline and the ocean. the work is composed of concrete pedestals supporting organic forms cast in bronze from found objects are carved from stone quarried in the california foothills. each object bears traces of movement and transformation like wave tossed driftwood or stones washed from the mountains. >> the work is designed to weather and wear in the elem

i'd been a commissioner on the human rights commission and chair of that commission. but public health is something something that is that touches my day job as a an assistant district attorney, a managing attorney of our treatment courts, our collaborative courts and our mental health unit. so it's very it always has been important to me and in my work during the day with the city i'm able to do it and i was thrilled absolutely thrilled to be appointed to the commission . >> you know, things change and people come and go and we all do. and i'm grateful to dr. colfax for the way that he was present for me and the way that he's continually reached out and answered all of my texts to check in about questions and and things. very generous with his of his time and his expertise and i bothered him a bit about treatment, the availability of treatment and the available modalities of treatment that we need needed more and we still do need so much more in the city on all levels but particularly from speaking right now from my perspective with the work that i do in the da's off

but we'll see because european commission also has a lot of leverage here. and eastern european countries are in the middle of this crisis that is happening. the commission is uh, trying to continue with this uh uh, a lost cause and, and they will definitely lose. but in the meantime, they can create a lot of trouble. all right, we have seen large protests reports and the breaking through police court on the, in the book or write stuff. what are the chances that the situation, the west and in romania and how far can the ramifications of this decision go to uh, the situation is uh going which is likely to worst. and because there will be a, basically the legal elections because romanians are denied the right to vote for whomever they want. and just ask who is denied the rights to be elected. these are basic democratic rights, and they are denied just by the stooges of european commission in romania. that is why i think that the crisis is likely to continue. if somebody else, if somebody is elected on these elections with dollars. yes. cool. what is the united

recreation and park commission on february 20th, 2025 actually please call the roll. commissioner anderson here commissioner halsey here commissioner clarke herrera here commissioner mazola here commissioner weintraub here commissioner louis has an excused absence and commissioners work will be joining us shortly as will our general manager who's walking and right now for the. >> as you're going to do the other intros yeah okay go ahead and take the san francisco recreation and park commission news hybrid in-person and virtual meeting the san francisco entertainment commission my name has been blame and on the commission president. >> we'll start with announcements we would like to start the meeting with the land acknowledge ment we the san francisco entertainment commission acknowledge that we are on the unceded ancestral homeland of the dramatist jelani who are the original inhabitants of the san francisco peninsula as the indigenous stewards of this land and in accordance with their traditions the alone jelani have never ceded lost nor forgotten their responsibilit

i plead with you to please support her to be on this commission. in many ways i'm just an ordinary citizen asking for support of this wonderful woman. thank you. my name is frank noto. i'm speaking on behalf of stop crime action, the stop crime act an action supports victims and crime prevention. >> ms.. scott has had three years spent three years of her life supporting victims and crime prevention especially prevention of violent crimes. so it's naturally natural that that we would support her for this appointment. we believe she supports supports a strong well-trained police force. she's worked with the police intensively and observed them over the last 2030 years and we hope she will work for that and work for doing changes that will make the our police force increase recruitment and retention. >> thank you. thank you. >> still mourning. >> yeah. oh, thank you. i'm here to to you know, just to bring up the you know, me and matty we're mothers and we've lost our children to homicide so i feel the need to support her that she supported me even tho

arts commission.our annual convenience ,our first one that we've had in person. and believe it or not because we had all these years of those years of covid and then we had a virtual and so this is in person and we already have over 500 rsvp fees and so a lot of people are interested in they're coming. i'll be emceeing and doing a keynote. all of our directors epping, glen, mary chu and well evan glenn is deputy director and denise's absentia and mary chu carolyn i write about fernandes or i'll be presenting president chuck collins will be presenting and we'll have our legacy grantees awardees and they'll be all past our past recent past and present awardees. so it's going to be a nice evening and then afterwards the people will get a chance to go to the gallery and see the show that's currently up and so that will be an opportunity as well. so it's going to be a good evening. it's a long day tomorrow but it's going to be a fun day tomorrow and so we encourage everybody to come and show up. >> we have

arts commission.the artists came in and you know, sold their wares and then we paid musicians to kind of complement the event. >> we do a carnival every year. this is another event that brings thousands of people to to our neighborhood. and then on the endorsement side, this isn't specific to the sound permit but we've been collecting support to make this whole program permanent like the way we activate it and having events like this. we've gotten over 2500 neighbors to to sign it. and then on the merchant side there are 23 merchants on the block where we hold these events. of those 21 are in support of making this program permanent too. we haven't gotten a response yet. so the support is is quite broad among all the merchants that are along there. that's it. so thank you so much for your consideration. >> very cool. >> thank you. any comments from my fellow commissioners? >> can you just. it said it was an expansion or an amendment. will you just. i'm sorry. i know this is probably in your applicatio

i particularly highlight the on the last page the california debt and investment advisory commission provides valuable tools for commissioners and elected officials to provide you with some of the tools that you need for understanding bonds and your obligations. but if i can turn to the next page please will discuss how our bonds are authorized. thank you. >> we'll discuss. >> there we go. how our bonds are authorized, our debt program and then how we go about issuing bonds. so let me begin with talking about our debt program overall i think sometimes as we think about bonds we associate them with credit cards and i'd like to suggest that's not the correct frame for you. >> our bonds are an important tool that this commission uses both to create equity as well as to manage the impact on our rate payers first in terms of equity, the facilities that steve robinson and the infrastructure team are building today will be used by businesses by residents for the next 20, 30, 40 years. by using bonds we allow those users some of which haven't moved to the city yet haven't even been formed ye

so were put forward by that you were p and commission this week. and one of the measures could be implemented very quickly. the youth pin commission has promised to borrow money at international markets, up to 150000000000 euros. and this money can be handed over to member states of the you appear to be union as loans and they can invest this money. and in the on defense or in the or defense industries, or they can use this money to buy weapons, then they can deliver those weapons to ukraine. there are also other measures like relaxing the fiscal rules into your opinion. and that could give some member states a bit of fiscal space to spend more money on defense. so all of that is on the table and we expect the leaders to give it a go. i don't ukraine, which of course is not then a member. we had the commission president sort of found the line describing it as part of a your a p and family that needs to be defended. how strong and indeed have united is to support for ukraine inside the block. we heard from many leaders emphasizing their support for

so he sets up this commission and he sets up the commission with very established figures. this is important. he wants people who will be trusted, who are seen as the epitome of washington, people such as richard russell, who i mentioned, who is the senior democrat from georgia, gerald ford, who's a house republican from michigan, who will be the leader of the republicans during the second half of the 1960s. and allen dulles, who had been former director of the cia and of course, warren himself. so the point of the commission was not simply their findings, but that it had legitimacy. and the commission gets to work and it produces its report and the report in the end, concludes that it was lee harvey oswald was a lone assassin who committed this horrendous crime and an outlines how it was done and initially this warren commission receives great praise. it's seen as having produced something definitive and solid and johnson gets a lot of praise early on, although that will quickly change as questions, rumors and more start to circulate about gaps in the report and the way th
