h. ronen: thank you. i want to thank supervisor safai for supporting this. a frustrating constituent service situation that supervisor safai and i worked on before we were supervisors end up leading to what i think is a really smart policy change for many businesses like la victoria or other smaller businesses that have a kitchen but really don't have a way to make additional profits through the products that they sell themselves. this provides an avenue to stay in business as rents are sky rocketing. i think it makes a lot of sense. so i hope we have everyone's support on this. thanks so much. >> president m. cohen: all right. thank you very much, supervisors. colleagues? we can take this item same house -- supervisor safai? >> supervisor a. safai: just for clarification are we voting on just 73 or 73 and 74? >> president m. cohen: just 73. thank you, colleagues, can we take this same house, same call, without objection, the ordinance passed on first reading. madam clerk? >> clerk: item 74 ordinance to amend the planning code to create a two-year pilot prog

h. ronen: thank you. i want to start with thank you to president cohen, the budget committee and entire committee, fewer, yee, stefani and sheehy. i agree, as well, that the process was so much better this year and i particularly appreciated how we had open hearings about the add-back process and we had those discussions together in public. i thought that not only is that a much more transparent way but it's probably how we should have been doing it all along. i just wanted to appreciate your leadership, supervisor cohen for making that happen. i also want to give a really special thanks to your staff and particularly sophia kittler. it was one of the most organized budget processes that i've ever seen and sophia was accessible at all times to my staff and they couldn't stop talking about how impressive she was and i felt the same way. so i just want to shout out sophia and give her a huge thanks. i also want to highlight, in addition to everything everyone has already mentioned something that i am very p

h ahsha safai. his eventually lonely fight. i've twice been at the committee when supervisor ronen had legislation heard. he asked a line of question that was designed to troll rather than clarify pieces of legislation. imagine being a sexual assault and harassment survivor in that room and having to hear all sorts of questioning designed to provoke and prolong an already emotional item. on a personal note, it's one thing that supervisor safai misgendered me during a hearing on historic trans rights led legislati legislation, but several times even at mayor elect breed's campaign kickoff, mr. safai has unwelcomely touched me, even when i asked him to stuff. other women have told me things as well and i'll leave them to tell their stories when they feel comfortable. but i absolutely cannot trust someone who has serious boundary issues for any form of leadership position, especially when they talk about people being able to take on leadership roles. thank you very much. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> i made many demonstrations before you. in fact, i'm the only one to come through and show you how t

ronen. she has a special commendation she would like to share with us today spee h. thank you so much. i know some of my colleagues would like to speak as well. today i am going to present a certificate to the family specifically, cassandra gutierrez and a liat. if you want to come up here to the microphone. >> supervisor cohen: any microphone it would work. >> yes, thank you. i am presenting this post famously. i don't know how to pronounce that word to their father. he was a beloved calculator, a member of the mission community. i have prepared remarks about his life but i want to share personal remarks before i read the details about his life. carlos was a good friend of mine. he actually, in recent years, was my neighbor and lived around the block from me. when i found out that he passed away, on sunday, between then and now, i have learned so much about him that i didn't even know. i learned he was a teamster and talked to rudy gonzalez who told me that he was one of their best organizers that they ever had and that he brought all of the young people into their contract fight for
