katherine howard. to make. i have worked with ross mirkarimi on city issues.lieve he will be annr/hi excellent sheriff. i encourage you to reinstate him. i am appalled by the witchó2mot in the press. it is a disgrace. anyone in this room that had to stand up to this, it wouldse>éxe very, very difficult so i want you to think about that. thirdly, if you supervisors are really serious about ethics, you double standard in the way ross' case has been treated. he should be reinstated. thank you. >> president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> thank you for taking all of this time, and this is a long hearing, i know for all of you. my name is lindsey -- you will notice it's about 40 or 50-1 at least indr8i5m of for ross' reinstatement. grassroots that votes and organizes. you've seen people from local organizations. and so i really doubt that polling. andb)j!g i've even noticed the chronicle which started the responsive because of the strange, the few people that haveéi spoken out seem to e sympathetic toi]ã domestic vioe issues. there's some hypocrisy and a(bul

thank you. >> katherine orlan, howard shafner, robert. >> good afternoon. i'm a mission resident who often bikes through the project area both for recreation and for work and i'm in support of this proposal. i bike all over this city but fell and oak are by far the scariest places to ride, due to the speed of the cars and number of lanes of traffic. i've also worked as tour guide for bike tours. they're a small business and a bicycle tour company in san francisco located in hayes valley. i've led tourists every day on fell street on bikes. when they introduced that planned route to tourists they get excited about the possibility of seeing golden gate park, but they're not excited to climb hills. in fact, many of my older or out of shape tourists, they can't climb hayes. i'd love to lead tourists to san francisco all over our city without having to warn them about the dangers of cars, but i kind of saw the legal obligation to let them know about the dangers they might encounter. i give tourists a special warning about how biking along fell street will feel.
