but at the same time, i think supervisor ankh -- tang's concern is warranted. i will see what kind of reaction i get from this. is if we allow enough time for that discussion to happen and allow enough time for the work to get implemented so by the time you need to come back you have a better gauge of what you would like to have as you move forward. i think one 1 year is not long enough, but i also feel that 2 years maybe long enough. >> sure. if you would like to amend it to 2 years, we can certainly do that. >>supervisor katy tang: i would like to make a motion to amend p 2 line 23 to say it will be an additional 2 years from june 30, 2015. >> 2 fiscal years, because we are in the middle of a fiscal year? that would be one 1/2. >>supervisor norman yee: i would like to change it to two full years. >> we would leave it until june 30, 2016. >>supervisor katy tang: when they say 3 years, they mean three 3 fiscal years? >> yes. >>supervisor david campos: i think because it took so long to act on it, it's probably a few months into it. yes. >>supervisor norman yee:

tang tang i -- >>supervisor katy tang: i know this ranges in different sizes. what are festivals going to be paying? >> we have an estimate of $529,000. this covers about 30 events annually for festivals and street fairs. >> let's say for example a small block party, 2 blocks, what would an organizer expect to pay for that on traffic controls? >> it depends on what services they need. they could need an x number of parking control officers that handle safety and traffic mitigation. other larger ones could be where towing is involved. that depends on the festival itself. i can provide you with an example if you like? >> sure. that would be great, thank you. >>supervisor london breed: thank you. >> thank you. >> the next audit i would like to speak about the 2012 audit for kci for medical equipment. there were eight recommendations that focused on improving monitoring of the contract. dph has implemented three recommendations and reports implementing process of three more including creating detailed policies and procedures for reviewing invoices before authorizin

i don't have a problem moving forward but i would defer to my colleagues. >>supervisor katy tang: thank you supervisor campos. i did have the opportunity to meet with jason henderson. he did have the opportunity to meet with us and i would allow him to don't serve. and i heard from mr. wingard who is out of town. i don't know if we heard from mr. richards. >>supervisor norman yee: we made a connection in my office with him. he was planning to submit a statement. i don't have any indication whether we received it or not. >>supervisor katy -- we did not receive anything. >>supervisor norman yee: we could either just by looking at the resume have him fill the seat or we can just continue that one seat if you like. seat no. 5. dennis richards. >>supervisor katy tang: i see that he is continuing in his role. i would liked to ask about some of his absences at meetings in the past. so i don't know if there is anyone who is here for public comment to speak on his behalf? no. okay. okay, i guess if you are staff for the cac, i'm wondering if there is any explanation or if you can speak to

i think it's better to give them flexibility. that would be my response. >>supervisor katy tang: i appreciate that response. i'm not here to micro manage lafco. i just want to understand the nature, the scope of the work to justify the 3-year extension is really my question. >> i think supervisor campos hit the nail on the head is to give lafco that freedom that at the time actually this was put together and as he also pointed out this has taken some time. we weren't quite sure of the scope of work and lafco is still having those discussions. at the time this resolution was developed they hadn't passed cca at the board. it was really to give lafco that flexibility and give it that sensibility that there would be that staff person through that transition period and really let lafco make that decision whether they wanted the staff purn -- person on for one or two or 3 years. that 3 years would be a time to make that transition. >>supervisor katy tang: my follow up when will that discussion be happening in terms of determining the length of time that person will be serving at lafco. >>supervisor david campos:

supervisor tang is the author >> thank you very much i know we have aaron from the planning department this is a basic item basically every year in the month of may it's small business month and one of the things we've done in the past is in an effort to assist our small business so we wave the fee for awning so we've been thankful to observing our planning department in participating in this program we've incorporated into this fee waiver program for pedestrian level lighting to encourage the public safety and we're trying to support our small business we're recognizing the way our neighborhood look is incredibly important so i'm going to turn it over to aaron star from the planning department. >> thank you supervisor tang. this ordinance will wave the fees for awnings and signs on awnings during the month of may. the planning commission heard this on april 27th and voted to approve it they have a recommendation to make this permanent, however, i believe sxhaupg has adapted and the other two portions are technical on how to do that with that, supervisor tang if you have any questions,

katy tang, norman yee and [speaker not understood]. i come to you as an applicant to be reappointed to seat number 4, representing seniors and disability organizations, as i do have contextual experience in that as i sustained my disability from terminal brain injury from a collision, a pedestrian collision here in san francisco on march 23rd, 2001, which my anniversary is in three days from now, of 13 years. appointed to psac, i was in 2006, and i transitioned over to seat number 4 in 2010 as i had contextual awareness to incorporate the needs of seniors and people with disabilities and the dynamics of pedestrian safety. i do see the immediate need of the city and the state of california to work together on legislation to change the timing, the default timing on pedestrian signals, and to also address a component which came forward to you, and it was approved, a pedestrian safety strategy. it was based on police collision data from traffic collision form 555. i mentioned this to you on january 16th at the public comment hearing. it does

so, the fact that she's come back and shown her strong interest in this, i would support your motion. supervisor tang? >> all right, thank you. today after listening to both of the statements from the applicants, i would have liked to appoint mr. porfido to the position to the mental health board. but given that ms. wilson has come before us previously and we have encouraged in the past people to come back and that there are two supervisors who also support ms. wilson, i will support that motion. >> so, without any objection, motion passes. [gavel] >> so, thank you very much for coming today. so, madam clerk, item number -- what is it >> 4. >> item number 4 is a hearing to consider appointing one member, term ending january 1, 2019, to the elections commission. there is one vacant seat and two applicants. >> okay. there are two applicants. so, applicant number one, dominic ryan paris, would you -- >> good afternoon. do you have any starting questions or shall i just go into my spiel? would you still have faith in our american democracy if your vote didn't count? this is actually the question that got

i would also like to put my name on there as a coauthor. >> thank you. so, i'd like to move -- >> supervisor tang. >> no, i just want to thank you for that and thank you for the comments and questions today. i think that today i really feel comfortable with supporting this legislation, mostly because it's not a ban entirely on e-cigarettes. it's really just saying, as supervisor yee mentioned, you can do it, you can buy it, r do it in the comfort of your home. with that i would like to support supervisor mar in this and make the motion. >> so, i'll move positive recommendation from this committee. >> okay. without any objection? this motion passes. [gavel] >> thank you. (applause) ~ >> so, i'll be continuing the meeting. if you would like to leave quietly, i would appreciate it. madam clerk, can you please call items 5 through 10. excuse me, everybody. i need to clear the room. we still have other items we have to hear. so, can we entertain a motion to convene in closed session. is there any member of the that wishes to speak on items a5 through 10? seeing none public comment is now closed. [gave

comprehensive packet that i think speaks to the best ethical tradition that we all do in the business here in city hall. supervisor chiu, thank you, supervisor breed, supervisor tang i hope you will consider this legislation and hope to have your support because the public depends on it and expects no lesson ethical sessions will. thank you. >> >>president david chiu: thank you for your partnership on this and i want to talk about more details and open it up to initial public comment that we know will result in future hearings on this topic. but as our city attorney eluded to that part of this definition is the lobbyist is an individual who receives or is promised economic consideration of $3,000 or more, because the language has been ambiguous on the ordinance to the there is a distinction between contract lobbyist to get paid any amounts to contact any city officials versus in-house employee lobbyist and we are considering whether it makes sense to have either some sort of low dollar level lobbyist as well as an em employed lobbyist to make it a little less challenging than it is today and the attorney issue which is a real issue with force many. at enforcement.

reserve >> i got that i was trying to thinks since it was brought up those calculations were made in order to determine a specific amount to allocate. this is what supervisor tang and supervisor wiener both said in their comments earlier but i know as a former commission of the san francisco redevelopment agency when we look at the at the time of the accident increment we're not doing this from a legal prospective the tax increments how is works for the city is was never dedicated to one purpose to job growth and so forth. i realize we anticipate that there's expected growth and expected tax growth in the booming areas so the city will generate specific tax revenue but at the end of the day there's more thanks than that there's transportation needs and support around police presence and there's also personal affordable housing and other issues.

tang. supervisor wiener. supervisor yee. supervisor avalos. there are 11 i's. this ordinance is passed on the reading from. colleagues let's go to our 3:00 p.m. madam clerk, call items 24 and 25. as >> that's a special order the board of supervisors will known for a whole meeting for items 25 the proposed ordinance ordering west point road and various easements for the phrase 2 development reserving is easements rights for the city and in connection making the recite finding and supervisor cowen >> thank you. i want to take a moment to talk about the street vacations. i'm talking about this norman i wouldn't but there was a little bit of misinformation and as a result this information was brought to my attention a couple of days ago. it's a vacation of a few easements street in bayview hunters point. i gave a few keys to a few family in the affordable housing units. the rebuilt of those are essential to supporting our public heirs residents and revooilt a neighborhood in the southeast sector. as we begin to work on phase 2 of the rebuilt for hunters view it's n

[gavel] >> supervisor tang. >> thank you. i want to thank all the candidates for expressing your interest in serving on electionses commission. it certainly is a very important body here in san francisco. and i think that we have seen no shortage of enthusiasm from both candidates. today i will say that i would like to support the applicant chris jerdonek for this commission. we cross tabs ten years ago and he -- i credit him for explaining to me technically how rank choice voting works, an even more complicated system than here in san francisco. also, i think that when you look at the spread of the electionses commission, i do believe that he really brings forth a technical expertise that is really important. mr. gleason in his letter to us also stated that, you know, it's -- there's a differentiation between electionses campaignses and policy versus ~ the actual administration of elections. and i think that's really important and something that i do believe that mr. jerdonek would be able to bring to the commission. so, with

the community and i hope that all of you had a great snapshot of just some of the great programming that is involved with snbc. thank you, megan. (applause) >> thank you, supervisor tang. i'd like to start by thanking you who i believe to be really a woman of true character, courage, and commitment and a real supporter of the city's youth and families, not just in the sunset. it's an honor to receive this recognition from a woman whose abilities and services i so admire. i also want to thank the other members of the board of supervisors, the mayor, the district attorney, and the commission, the department of the status of women for celebrating the efforts of these san francisco women. but i might not yet know the other honorees personally and have heard about them today absolutely blows my mind and confirm that [speaker not understood] group filled with passion and purpose which is why the sunset neighborhood and beacon center is all about. i'm really humbled by this honor because i believe so strongly in the abilities to lead and make a difference in our community don't happen in isolation and other folks here have made that exact pointed to. for me it's all about re

i do agree with supervisor tang and supervisor kim that ideally we handle these in the broader -- in the broader budget process. i could think of a number of supplementals i'd like to bring like the fact we have homeless -- no park patrol officers in the city. so, our parks are getting trashed. i would love to do a supplemental to have more park patrol. i'm going to wait for the budget process, but i do believe that in this particular issue we are in crisis on our streets and we he need these outreach workers out there yesterday. so, i'm happy to support this. >> supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much, mr. president. there are two things that i wanted to interject in the conversation about folks, some of the feedback that i've heard and agree with from my time in the shelter, is that we've got to begin to address safety. not only people's personal safety, but their physical belongings and ensure that we've got workers, staff persons that are in the shelters and doing the outreach that are culturally competent and that they're able -- that they're also speaking multiple languages. i

i submit. thank you. >> thank you, supervisor tang. supervisor cohen. >> thank you very much. i have a request, a hearing request that follows up on a motion adopted by our very own youth commission, and it will focus on the city's efforts to address the needs of young people with incarcerated parents. in 2011, a dcyf needs assessment found 17,933 youth and children in san francisco have a parent -- had a parent who has spent time in either county jail or state prison in 2010. 17,933 children. however, there is no comprehensive data available about the number of youth who have experienced parental incarceration or the support services that they may need. now, the board -- as this board recently took historic action to end discrimination against formerly incarcerated people with the passage of the fair chance ordinance, this hearing request is pretty timely. it's forced to consider the impacts of parental incarceration on the well-being and life outcomes of young people in our city. this hearing will be an opportunity to invest the following issues. i have four of them. efforts
