and i am opposed to laura's law. as a case manager i was consistently tasked with the challenge of connecting youth with social services to meet their needs. they wanted treatment, there were so many time and time again that wanted treatment, and it was an impossible task. i was constantly told that they were, you know, too ill, that they didn't have the services available. laura's law is to implement mandatory outpatient treatment. you see the problem with this when speaking about the homeless population. outpatient, housing is an important part of that. you are tasking social workers and service providers with an impossible task because we don't have the services available. look at the research. it shows that the housing first model with supportive services works. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> hi, jennifer friedmont, director of the coalition of homelessness. this is a painful hearing. it's painful for the family members who have been going through it and are *urpb unable to get their adult child

and i am here to, and i am a little bit nervous in front of a lot of people even though i can't see you, i am here to share a little bit of my personal story. as you can see, or you cannot see, i am a person with disability. and a lot of times, for a long time, when i was looking for jobs for year, and since the 90s. you know, i have gone, you know, through the first and second interview and quite a few times, i was the you know, the one out of two at the final choice. and i was really chosen, and a lot of times, it makes me wonder like, why that? and a couple of them was, you know, with the city, you know, and employee too. and so i just wanted to share that, you know, it is true that people, like us are struggling and i really appreciate that we considering it here right now, and thank you so much. >> thank you. >> and next speaker. >> good morning. >> good morning. >> thank you supervisors, i am with the california academy of sciences over in district one. more importantly i am an advocate for people with disabilities and have been for a long time and recently joined the council and

mic. >> hi, i am victoria weeks and i am in the larkin street youth services and when i first got into san francisco i came for school, and when i became homeless i did not know any services that i could use, and i have heard about it and i was in a group home in sacramento. and that is how i found out about this service and i believe that to help the kids get off of the streets and for the adults we need to pass around the message and let there be known that there is hope. and there is housing, food and shelter, and thank you, that is it. >> thank you, next speaker, please? >> yes, my name is kevin, williams and how are you doing, today? >> and yeah, i would like to, you know, and i am, not from san francisco, and from california, and you know, and i would like to just, you know, and..., (inaudible) and you know from being homelessness. and yeah, it is a... and it is a... it is a, you know, it is a struggle being homeless but you know that it is something that we have to go through because it is part of living. and you know, it is like, you know, you know, i want to focus on the peopl

i am here today representing the cr club, and the same old. and i want to let you know that the cr club supports cythia crews to the vacant seat six as it is known, her skill set, problem solving and planning and the ability to work on a team or independently, her involvement includes neighborhood act vifl in district five and voter registration and experience navigating san francisco, sometimes maze-like governmental processes, no insult intended. >> she has taken action or spoken out on several areas of interest and most importantly san francisco community choice aggregate problem, clean power sf, i want to add, and going off the script, which is dangerous and that her presentation was notable to me and even someone called some of the grumpyist members, the people who are working on 20 years for the clean power that take time to get going and move tiny bits at a time were impressed by her enthusiasm and her story, and so i have noticed that personally about her and she has an energy about her and an ability to keep pushing through, even when

i feel like i am loved and i deserve to be where i am. ad great people come into my life, not just men, but women. that has lifted me. i am a woman. i am ok. i thought i knew what that was. part of that is dissecting where all the pain comes from. i did a little bit of that. now, i am ok. this is what it is. once you are aware of what is going on, it is freeing. tavis: i said a prayer for you a while ago because i saw you make a move from independent to a label. i don't want to demonize labels. putve seen so many artists their best stuff out when they don't have to a label. labels can be the death of an artist. there are examples of what i am talking about. how are you finding life with a label? here you are with a label. these are good songs and does not sound like they are boxing human. -- you in. bei said, if i cannot myself, i do not want to do this. i would rather be independent, hustle up, and make it work. my mindset is still that of an independent artists. they know they are taking risks with me. what is she going to do this time?

i am sure there is going to be something for me. i said, you know, nothing's going to fit me heand and glove because i am too off-beat. you have to listen to the ideas me and peter have. he was a captive audience. >> nine and a half hours later de galle airport in paires, he said when we get back tola -- paris, he said call me up and i will set up with our person. yes really have the nanny idea in my head at the time. but i ended up with going to my girlfriend's house which was where it was connecting to. she forgot to mention she was going to be there with two screaming toddlers. i thought i would lose my mind. peter said, twicky, the only one had called and invited me to visit her and her family in london. so, i said to my girlfriend in france, i have to get out of here. i love you, but this is no vacation. and i went to visit twiggy and her family and she and her husband started working. i started taking their school goals girls. she was a proper little british school girl. she was walking around, and she said, i found my new shoe

>> once again, i am glad you asked. i think there are some weapons that are not appropriate, like tanks. and i am not sure that people should have a rocket launcher in their bedroom. but conventional weapons? i don't have a problem with. the second amendment is an essential part of the constitution. it is there for a reason. it would give the populus the ability to assist the military in case of a foreign innovation but it is there because if we ever have a rogue government that wants to dominate the people the people have the ability to defend themselves. we must always protect that right. [ applause ] >> however, what i have said, which some people read wrong, is that in places where there is a lot of crime with assault weapons, that keeping the second amendment on the table and also protecting -- always -- we should be able to engage in conversations about it. what can we agree on that does want violate the second amendment but provides assistance to the residents. unless we can talk about these things, we will not ne

i am daysy and i am a advocate and i just wanted to tell you my story, i was once a homeless youth and i was able to get services and on the services and if i did not able to get the services i would not know where i would be today. going to the market street and i was actually able to graduate to two college degrees and i am not advocating for the same problem that i was suffering from, i need more awareness about mental health and young homelessness, and san francisco has a lot of money and if we don't, it is going to be a bigger problem. >> thank you. >> next speaker. >> my name is franklin, and part of the community and at one point in time the used to have the native american aged projects on the market and it is no longer there. and at the moment, i am getting help from the aids housing alliance and mine is ssi is $900 a month and my rent is $800, when i was homeless in the last year, and they saved me, mind you, the housing alliance and i am going to say this because, being on the streets had deter ated my health. and being homeless to me, felt like a crime. and sit and lie down

to tell myself, who i am and that i am through now.ire becauseto i am afraid something in me will listen and make it possible. i have to discourage whatever thatthey need is in me -- amy is in me. you can work through me as long as you want to. this is why i love you so much. >> we are getting older now. every time you get to the ultimate, it is like peeling the paper off. you are going to peel that thing back. all new door is going to open up. that is what i am finding in my old age. i say the use of my senior hood. hood.th of my senior tavis: how do you have this outlook post ossie. was never agree for. he had us all laughing at his mother's funeral. he wasdn't cry because talking about his mother, and we had to smile. there was something about how we were enjoying and not thinking about the death. when thing he used to say all when he came to the hospital or he goes to a funeral, he wasn't of mourner. if you were expecting somebody to cry with you, he was the wrong person. you had to move away from the fear. one of the things he was

. >> hi, i am katherine again, and i am here just to ask you to say that san francisco public school children need you the san francisco school board to be their voice. why does it matter that you endorse the goals of the protection of the local schools revenue act. because it is hidden, and because relative to the rest of the state, you are the experts. and what will this do? this is, and this will return the stable, local property taxes to your schools and return accuracy and transparency in reporting. san francisco reports to... i think that is it. >> thank you. >> and san francisco reports to its voters that 34 percent of property owners taxes go to fund their schools. but only 18 percent is actually getting there. and the other 16 percent is being invisiblely diverted to pay the debts of the state. that local revenue, should have gone to schools. many voters believe that schools get all of the money and the voters don't understand why the san francisco schools always seem in need of funding, this is a good government measure that supports accurate and school and state spending o

>> i do, i have one more just so i am really clear on this. on the two things, i would like the that is the main part that i like about the signage and the going into the neighbors and so good job on that. and the other thing that i wanted to ask and in regards to the parent company have a subsidiary is there a cap on the companis that they can have? >> like is there a, you know, gap if they have,... >> so, the proposal in the planning commission has not acted yet and this is a staff proposal, it is not to include subsidiaries. so not to include it at all. >> we can't distract them unless they are publicly traded and so the private agreements and purchases there is not a public trail of those and so that is part of the issue with that. >> okay. >> okay, commissioner tour-sarkissian. >> i have a quick question about your comment, and just numbers. you stated that it, the impact for going from eleven to 20 is only five percent. but then you stated that that five percent exemption is further lowered with the other restrictions and regulations, cou

i am a senior citizen, and and i am blind and that is two strikes against me and i feel that i am the most fortunate person in the world, because i have a job. it brings me great joy, to work with the people in our community, specifically i work with the blind. and i know that in working with them, we have had over 110 people go through our program. and we have had a 34 percent placement rate with those people and so you can't tell me that they are not ready for jobs, i think that some of the most coveted jobs are with the city when i ask the people, when we ask them where they want to work and it is going to be at the city. at the light house, we have developed i think an outstanding and remarkably close relationship with the hr department. and i can't thank donna enough for being always, open, and listening, and the reasons for wanting to have the people gain employment. and we have actually placed someone, with the city, through rule 115, and we would like to see that happen more frequently and just two recommendations from at least our community, is that many of the people that wo

okay. >> and randy shaw. >> okay. >> good morning, i am sam danison and i am next door to 222. and i have lived through the experience of having a bar right next door and we welcome the living stons and their business, but i do want to also say a couple of things, one is that i am concerned about the 2 a.m. closing, thursday through saturday night. and that is the time of the week when we get a lot of loitering and a lot of activity and next door to the building and i know the kind of problems that can occur. and so one of the things that i would like to do is to say we will be paying attention to those hours between midnight and 2:00 a.m. and looking to make sure that we have got some kind of control on the loit ering. >> and there are people that are attracted to the edgier side of things. >> we want to pay attention to the noise issue. >> and also into our building as well. and i want to make sure that the living ston stay in communication with us about the noise issues and deal with to a neighborhoodly basis. and sadly they did not reach out to us to talk about this hearing

sure i am right this moment. i don't think so. i believe in evolutionary biology and psychology, but you can explain everything with it. you end point. you have the hand and you can go backwards, but i do believe it, just it is too easy. >> we don't have the end point, but part of this -- we evolve to the point we don't get hit anymore. >> daf vin -- gavin gets hit a lot. you were busy conquering the world while we were fight ug off the english. >> that's a tremendous exam a pell of fighting. that's an amazing -- that's incredible and i can watch that for days. he is fighting -- >> pretend it is the pug. >> it is an adorable puppy with a beard. we have to take a break. more delightful stuff coming up.

if i am his son i am greg sting? you are a man with one name it is sting and a woman is charro or cher which is a version of charro. the other day i was at an event to honor dick cabot. i said what else do you do besides put a these events? he said i run the estates of very, very fame a muss people who have died -- famous people who have died and i deal with their dysfunctional, spoiled, insane children. this is what it is about. they don't know -- they have never been told no. i have to say i want to applaud sting. i would never do that, by the way, but i want to. the idea that he is aware of this is pretty key. as a father, the last thing you want is your kid to be spoiled. you know they will be messed up so you want them to work and learn value in money. >> that's why they call them spoiled because they are no good. once you are spoiled you are like bad food and you give everybody diarrhea. jedediah, welcome to the show. is this good advice from a terrible singer or bad advice from a terrible father? >> i like the

and i am going to have this quote and i will say it now and say it at the end, attitudes are the real disability. when i came in to the city, i did not even know i was deslexic until later on, but so i did not get advantage of rule 115, because it was or did not start when i started. but i was also co-chair, of sciu's people with disabilities. and one of our complaints that we had from the people from our members who were in the disability community, and who were working for the city was about advancement. and they felt that 115, or a rule 134 at the time, pigeon holed people and so many, you know, if the city had a really active hiring policy, hiring people with disabilities, we would not need rule 115. and you know, i always felt that i was pigeon holed and you know, persons with disabilities is whether you should disclose it, you know, in the job interview, and that was one of my biggest decisions. and when i did, i remember two interviews that i went to and i was actually discriminated against, and even though i asked for accommodations. and so, i think we need to have interns so

>> the reason i am going to win the primary, overwhelmingly, i hope, is because i am a ronald reagan republican. i like rand paul, but i am not a rand paul republican. reagan republican who believes it is not good to get to the left of obama on foreign policy. immigration is a problem that is not going to get fixed by yelling about it. president bush tried to fix immigration and i wish he had been successful. 11 million immigrants are here to find a job. you need to increase border patrol agent. we have put technology on the borders but they keep coming here to work. we are not being overrun by illegal canadians. down with the other party on occasion. i am a good conservative, check my record, but i am also a problem solver, and this country needs to solve problems. >> and to tweak the question, why is it so wrong for like-minded democrats and republicans to try to find common ground on big issues such as the federal debt, immigration, social security reform? how does anything get done on these big issues if each side digs in their heels? >> certainly, we need to see change, but we do

i am lesbian i am black, i am white, i am chickening i am jew and muslim i am human. this has stayed with me to this day (clapping) she didn't rehearse that it flowed so we get to meet people that justice and righteousness flow from we get to meet people when in a position of authority and power like being the attorney general of the state of california have a choice do i defend a discretionary law that put people as second class citizens or do i say, no i won't defend that. supreme court decision was stricken down because you have our next speaker the attorney general of california cam la harris. >> thank you for mentioning mia. thank you stewart. thank you, thank you. (clapping.) frail i want to say it's wonderful to be home. thank you stewart for your leadership to keep harry's memory alive and ann you inspire us to keep the hope alive. that's extraordinary thing that is associated you've got to give folks hope when he spoke those words it was an extension of what he authenticity in his heart and soul and mind he saw it as a verb it meant action hope meant action s

and i wanted to ask a question that you know, i am particularly struggling with as someone who cares about moving clean power forward. i know that there has been a lot of debate around opt in verses opt out and many of the advocates including i think we had a discussion about this, that you support, and opt out, rather than opt in and i know that some of the arguments is that it will be a more successful program if it is the ability to opt out verses opt in. and one of the arguments that comes from folks in my community is the fact that they feel that they, and that a couple of things, number one, it might impact seniors who do not completely understand the process in general and it might impact the limited, english, speaking individuals, because it mighting a little bit complicated to figure out whether or not they should or should not opt in or opt out and so i just wanted to hear your take on what solutions you might propose on how we can basically bridge that gap in order to make sure that we put together the best system in order for clean power to be a success for those who might

and now turning the page on the overhead, and i am continuing with the bullet points in my presentation. so proposition a was approved by the voters and the charter was amended and a new civil service rule was implemented, i think that those are my notes. and but any way, was implemented and that was civil service rule, 34, that later became civil service 115, which is what we are speaking about today. and civil service rule the title of it is rules related to the employment of persons with disabilities. and so what are the requirements of civil service rule 115? >> and it will allows for the applicanted to be appointed to permanent exempt positions and entry level classifications and it is important that i stipulate right here, that when we say entry level positions, that disnot mean that these are you know going to be court positions only, for example, or secretarial positions, or positions such as that, we actually are referring to the first level of a position in a classification. and so for example, in my division, equal employment opportunity, we hired an attorney through rule 115

>> thank you, director, i am kind of confused here. because this decision is not really ours. what are we deciding? i mean, why is this... and why not. >> yeah. i mean, why not pass this out to the board of supervisors and let them make this decision? that they want to make? >> this is not,... >> this is not going into, this is, i would assume that the sale and the money from the sale will go into the general fund and it will be disbursed that way, we don't have any control over the, or what we asset from the sale and the ultimate decision as to whether or not to make a sale is that of the board of supervisors and we got a whole agenda, and so what are we doing >> we value your input and you have a perception, and we seek the input of the fire commission and the board makes the call but the input is vital and that is why i am here seeking your thoughts on this and the best approach. >> i appreciate that. >> commissioner loftus? >> thank you. >> for your presentation and for taking the time to come and it is interesting, this is before my time on the commission but i watched thi

>> i am having difficulty hearing you. >> 1985 to 2002, was the staff that was... >> yes. >> that is correct. >> thank you. >> so, before i let president chiu speak i will just say that as a member of the budget committee i think that your recommendation for the staffing that the adequate for strong recruitment and equal opportunity for the people with disabilities that should be a priority. and if you could get that un. and i would like to acknowledge the work of the advisory panel and group and i know that a number of speakers, and others will speak about that experience too and some of the recommendations that you have already gone through. but in explaining the history of the numbers of the use of 115, and how we might raise awareness through your monthly human resource professionals meeting that karl l johnson and others will attend and you are suggesting that an advisory panel, reestablishing an advisory panel and it is good with dhr, but also with the community based organizations. >> right. >> i want to thank you for presenting for the presenters and we want to see if presiden

and that i am considered an expert on the matter and i think that i am considered an expert, just because i am in this work and i have a expertise comes from talking to people and so you could go to the market street and go on the 71 and make the way on the golden gate and go on the 19 and you could talk to people and figure out what the need is directly from them themselves and step into their homes and rather than asking for us to come to the venue which is difficult in my mind. >> i am zach murray for the welcome youth services and i am rising to advocate that the board of supervisors in the department is here to do more and be accountible and give us public leadership to enhance the budget and the policy priorities to include the youth and the reality is that when compared to the homeless adult population you have the needs that set them apart from the homeless population and to date, the youth needs are rarely prioritized in the public policy and san francisco is first, and the ten year plan to abolish the homelessness, and the larger exiting foster care and represent 25 percent of t

what is you are looking for and again, i am sorry that i can't speak to the rule 115. and so to my knowledge of it is that eligibility for scheduling a or for leap, a doctor needs to sign-off to say that you have a condition which significantly limits a daily life function. and you know, most all of our consumers, that we serve that can be from i can't dress myself and i have trouble keeping a job. but i would love to connect you with someone who is doing less guess work than i, it is not my function but i can connect you with hr that can clarify those questions for you. >> okay. thank you so much. >> okay. and i see no other questions and thank you for being here, and thank you for honoring the dhr department as well. the next couple of speakers and there are a number of community based organizations that are here but i want to just thank, jonathan lions the president of the fdr democratic club in the city and i forgot to mention that jessica is here as well. why don't we start with jonathan and we will keep the community comments as short as we can, as well. so that
