that is going to be and port project, the same thing with glen canyon that is going to undergo a lot of work. one of the most challenging parts of the new district supervisor is that we elect the supervisors by district. it is very important to pay attention to the district, be engaged in the projects in the district. we also represent the whole city. any district supervisor that focuses on the district without addressing the citywide issues is not doing his or her job. every day, i make sure i am working on the major citywide issues and the district issues. i try to be disciplined about that. >> how will you approach the tough choices? >> i think we have to start by looking at the most critical city services that we cannot do without. what are the ones that if they deteriorated, we will pay the price on? public safety falls into that category as a basic critical service. transportation, making sure we have the functional muni is critical. core public health services like dealing with mental on this on our streets -- with mental illness on our streets. if we do not provide services,

not to dive into the dog issue, but in glen canyon, it is important to keep your dog on a leash. it is a strategy that can help keep our pets safe and the coyotes further away. thank you. supervisor wiener: thank you. i do not think we have seen now online and 7 on your side.. the meeting is at the hall of flowers. may 12. it is in my newsletter. if you want to get my e-mail newsletter, let me know. we will put you on. next question. >> hi. my name is jean. i graduated from this high school. i have to disagree with you. the amount of coyotoes -- last night, coming home, i had still wait in my car before i entered my house. they are roaming rapidly. i had to call safeway, and the people who owned the complex there said they were back there at night, looking for food. in know that they have left the golden gate park area. they have become brazen. they are walking during the day. at night. two weeks ago, they were trying to get on my balcony. they are all over. not just in diamond heights. glen park. they have frightened away the raccoons, and there is another area in san francisco.

million to revitalize and rebuild dolores park, and we have another $6 million or $7 million in glen canyon. on the capital side, there is so much good that is happening. on the recreational program side, we have special programming going on. we have some great stuff happening. tomorrow night at harvey milk, we have a great exhibit, and saturday is dov best in both parks, so there is a lot happening. thank you. >> next, we are going to -- supervisor wiener: next, we will hear from the director of public works. >> thank you, supervisor wiener, mayor lee. i am not a district a resident, but i lived across the street. regardless, i do look up to scott wiener. the parts i go to, the libraries that i go to are largely in district 8. the department of public works has two main areas of responsibility. one is the design, construction, and repair of police and fire stations, hospitals. that work is largely -- the work we do is largely capital-funded, thanks to the generosity of the voters and past elections in supporting general obligation bonds. we actually have a lot of good work going on. we are
