my name is douglas yepp. i have led in san francisco for 59 years. i would like to speak in favor of this ordinance. the reason i feel that way is the department of technology's past performance has been pretty poor. i would like to thank supervisors ammiano and david chiu for demanding improvements for dt. from my 20-year experience at san francisco general hospital, the technology part of my job was pretty much in the dinosaur era. a lot of my friends in the police department have wore me out listening to their complaints about their lack of technology in the police field. i hear it is improving recently. in regards to serving the community, for using this money, since it is in the millions of dollars, i would like to make a controversial suggestion and see where it goes from here. according to my work experience at san francisco general hospital, it is a sad commentary that much of the time he used by city employees using city in -- computers has been underutilized. one of the things that i would like to point out, which many consider a taboo subj

my name is douglas yepp. i have lived in san francisco for 59 years. i would like to think the committee for holding this agenda item. i would like to mention one aspect i do not see mentioned so far this morning, and that is the role of laguna honda hospital, for the issue of senior independence. according to my research, it seems like laguna honda hospital has been cast in a very negative light lately, especially in regards to its new construction. there has also been debate with certain watchdogs on whether the facility is being used for the benefit of longtime seniors in san francisco. maybe the issue of how laguna honda fits in with seniors in san francisco should be addressed, specifically. the reason why i bring that up is that i notice my own district supervisor has still been reluctant to issue written statements regarding what has been happening at laguna honda, answered allegations to their vocal critics. in regards to this committee, i notice there are only two agenda items for today. i am of the opinion that if taxpayers are going to get t

my name is douglas. i have lived in san francisco for 59 years. the reason i am giving public comment is for support. i think this is way past due. since i was a kid, i remember those abandoned boats were there, and i am glad we finally got around to it at this hearing. the main reason i would like to offer commented today is that i was very surprised that today's agenda had only one item. i would think that a committee of such importance would have had a lot more items than one item, so being a longtime resident of san francisco, i am sure there are many residents like myself who question we are getting our money's worth out of today's meeting, but onto other things with regard to agenda items with this committee, i would like to make two suggestions. the first one would be that maybe we should spend more time regarding the development of a park. i think different people have spoken out that it is underutilized, and i think that if this committee has only one agenda item today, maybe they can consider a boating discussion on john mclaren park, to

douglas yet. i would like to speak on behalf of item two.e should give her every resource available in order to improve the department of public health. çwith the departure of mitch kz @ san francisco general hospital, i would encourage the department of public health to better its performance. i think there has been a lot of discontent of certain aspects. items like item two will give the department of public health enough money to improve itself. çunfortunately, all of us are aware about the news of laguna honda hospital. i feel barbara garcia will support on going whistleblowing activities by employees in her department. çhopefully, that will extend te sand and this could general hospital. >> thank you. any other public comment? seeing none, public comment is closed. a request to continue this item to the call of the chair. so moved. do we have many more items before us? >> no, mr. chaiv >> very good. this meeting is adjourned.

my name is douglas yepp. i would like to thank supervisor campos for this hearing. it is long overdue. it shows he is a true champion of the poor and needy in san francisco. secondly, i still do not see my district 7 supervisor here. this item concerns his district, but i would like to know why he still repeatedly refuses to talk to the press and to his own constituents about what is happening here. he thinks it is not a problem, and i am saying, look. if you have the nerve to quit the health service board, as reported by "the chronicle, " maybe you ought to think about whether you are in the right line of work for district 7. secondly, i want to bring up the instance of dr. john ulrich. the department of public health punished and won a million dollar judgment against the county of san francisco for the way he was treated. i think the laguna honda situation is another instance of where the department of public health spends hundreds of thousands of dollars going after with tour -- whistle-blowers like rivera, kerr, ulrich, and myself. this hearing is proof that the

my name is douglas. i have lived in san francisco for 59 years. regarding public safety conditions, one overlooks aspects that i have been doing research on lately, there have been feelings of anxiety for street cops. i question that because there has been plenty of discussion regarding the recent poa election of the head of the police union. for the fourth time it seems to me that there was a noticeable level of the agreement as to how poa was being run. there were serious allegations of who should be running the unit more efficiently. since there has been a noticeably high level of diversity in the police force, in my opinion, i think there has been a lot of anxiety in regards to how the police feel about their jobs toward each other and toward the citizen. unfortunately, in two dies -- in today's "examiner," another incident involved a police officer. it seems like in the last 10 years, there have been too many cases of police misconduct. even if you look at the level of police chiefs, it seems like they're stress level has been excessive, sinc

are no less american than the residents of douglas county. and yet in douglas county, colorado, there will be candidates who run for school board for the programs, candidates that run for school board against the program, and the future of whether or not vouchers continue in douglas county, colorado, will be decided where it should be, by the residents of douglas county, colorado. this vote underscores the need for washington, d.c., to control its own public school system as a state does. in fact, mr. speaker, i think that washington, d.c., should be a state. until that day, congress should respect the wishes of d.c. elected officials with the regard to the charge of their education system. there is a federal interest with regard to what the state does and what washington, d.c., does with regard to education. states and the district of columbia should have the discretion to make the changes they need to improve education but not the discretion to stand back and do nothing. in fact, i worried considerably about an announcement that they would
