i am speaking on behalf of glendon hyde. the speaker did bring up some good points but let me let you know that for jim meko's experience, we can be grateful. i do see glendon hyde as someone who has a serious community experience. when you hear the community goes to glendon hyde, that is for reason. he is trusted and i have seen him in a room, very contentious meetings, being the calm in the room and being a member of the board of education in many contentious meetings, that is what i am looking for. someone who can speak reason and give logic to the discussion would also be the calm in the room so folks can hear each other and over and over again, i have witnessed glendon hyde being that person. i am grateful he has applied for the seat and i rarely come out to speak on someone's behalf but absolutely a want to be supportive of him and supportive of you and supporter of in that choice. thank you. >> supervisor kim: thank you, commissioner. >> could you also turn on the overhead? i am may 30--- i am a 35-year organizer. i w

i am here to support glendon hyde. gay men and women do not receive culture from our parents. we learn how to be gay in bars and nightclubs. these are the first bases where we feel comfortable. holding hands, dancing with partners of the same sex, being ourselves. entertainers like anaconda are more than business people. there hours -- they are stewards of the gay culture. they help men and women find their voice. in that time she has this charge that duty with the utmost dedication and regard for her community. she is a leader in every sense of the word and the entertainment commission would do very well to have her. thank you. >> good afternoon. thank you for the opportunity to speak out this afternoon. i live on sixth street. i have been there for almost 15 years. i live in the 300 block between the 1015 club and the [unintelligible] both very successful. when i first moved into the neighborhood, we found a lot of problems with the 1015 club and was part of the early group that resulted in 2000 -- in the consent dec

hyde had not applied. i think something about having him facilitate it is that the community was so respectful because they know how dedicated he is and how much he come to -- how much he listens and cares and works tirelessly for the community. i think it is important to have someone that has the respect in our neighborhoods and communities and also is tireless at outreach, will tirelessly knock on doors to get people to come to meetings. i think we saw that today with the support you were able to bring out in the middle of the afternoon. they have said you are always open and willing to talk to people. sometimes, it just takes talking to the neighbors. i think he will bring that to the entertainment commission. colleagues, do we have a motion on this item? supervisor farrell: we said is often at rules, but i think we have a plethora of really good candidates today. thank you for coming out. i do realize the importance of the entertainment commission. i have certainly noticed it in the first months in off

the evening of february 27, 1933, hyde park. cloudy and cold. stiff northwest wind swept across the dark waters of the hudson. and tossed the branches of the trees around the roosevelt home. but inside a big sixitin shouldered man sat by the fire and roosevelts pencil glided across the pad of, i paper because i am certain my fellow americans expect that of their presidency, i will address them with a candor and decision of which the president situation in polls. the fire crackled, the largeith hand with its thick fingers move rapidly across themove paper. the people of the united states wants vigorous action and they have made me thet instrument of temporary humble instrument of their wishes. scratched out than realized there is no time for ability and during the next two days, a frightening reports continue to reach hyde park. peace by piece of the nation's credit structure was becoming paralyzed. crisis was in the air. it was a strange numbing crisis, mistaking suddenly in the western city than in the south. it was worse than the invading army

i'm speaking on behalf of land in hyde for the commission. it has been a real pleasure working with them. they are progressively of reaching to try to make things better. something that was touched upon earlier is how important it is for the businesses themselves, the bars and clubs that we attend, what an important part they are to these committees. we need to be sensitive to those to move in and around the bars but while they pay taxes, it is the lion's share of the mind that comes from those employees and those bartenders and cocktail waitresses and those servers to go out and spend those dollars that they have earned. i have seen periodically a systematic high pain by certain tenets that will move into an area and start to work on shedding those bars down. it is important to have both sides be familiar with what is important. this represents a very important out reach from the gym and community and also those who live there as well. i think that he would make a tremendous addition to this commission. i hope that you will consider him. >>

i forgot to mention that there is the addition of glendon hyde. he will be a tremendous asset to the organization. next item, reviewing the minutes of july 12. we have a quorum of commissioners -- we will have to continue that item. >> i move to continue. >> second. >> commissioner hyde, mr. joseph, mr. perez. >> yes. >> item #3. for a report from the executive director. >> good evening. as was mentioned earlier, there was activity around this long to live performance legislation. -- limited live performance legislation. in a nutshell, after all the commission took a look at it and send recommendations in support of the land use committee. again it was passed with recommendation yesterday. july 25. the board did discuss the item today. we did continue it for a week, they felt they had to have more discussion with community. the plan is to see that item by the board on its first reading. i have given new this legislation before. if anyone is interested, i have the package. the other legislation i wanted to make the commission aware of is something

who sits next to me but henry hyde who also loves sunni. he was a big irish, very emotional sentimental is the word, sentimental guy. as we were talking about sonny he started crying. i am watching one of my heroes crying in front of me and it is choking me of. i was raised by my grandfather and i am not one of these cry in public kind of guys but henry is killing me. he pulls out a handkerchief and start crying and wiping his eyes and i am doing the same thing and telling him to stop that he said i can't and he is crying and while he is crying he says you know, jim sonny was on the judiciary committee. like the body being wheeled in and he is telling me he was on the day judiciary committee and you remember we had that conversation and i got someone to take his place and you are my guy. i am seeing this as kind of sacrilegious. i have my handkerchief and i blew my nose and eyes that with all due respect this is not the time or the place to talk about this but i will take it. there was a problem. because our was on the commerce committee is

. >> supervisor avalos: i would like to switch out his name with glendon hyde hoda would like to support for this position. he represents the number of great qualities i think would be exceptional in an entertainment commissioner. it is a neighborhood that is greatly impacted and has had never representative from that district and has -- the committee work that he has done in the neighborhood of a board member of united players has done fund-raising work for many causes. a member of the western soma citizens task force and a fund- raiser for the aids funding alliance, marriage equality, the sisters of perpetual indulgence, the transgendered laz senger come on numerous organizations that have been defeated -- benefited by his work. also not to only does g lendon understand night live, he is a drag queen and consummate performer in the night life of san francisco. he has a great sense of civic duty and activism i think makes him an exceptional member of the entertainment commission. he believes in community building and creating opportunity, for the community to grow and use its voice to m

my name is glendon hyde, and i am running for the neighborhood , association, or groups see. there has been a lot said about commitment to neighborhood fabric. a lot of people think that because i am a drag queen i am not also an activist. the easiest way to dispel that is one of the things that prompted me to become a drag queen is the compton riots followed by the stonewall riot, which were the birth of the clear rights movement. it is not easier to be a drag queen. it is much harder to be taken seriously, to make connections. and even when i ran for district 6, people said, "you are bringing your drag queen named with you? do you know that is going to be harder?" i do not mind working harder to prove myself. i think my run for district six did in grain me in the cultural and community fabric even greater than i was. it proved i can be taken seriously and not just someone who represents what sinkers in a bar -- lipsynchers in a bar. i represent a large community and a voice in the community. i will talk about the organizations i have worked with. my introduction came throug
