i want to thank supervisor mar, yee, kim and avalos. i know this is a topic that is personal for many of us as the sons and daughters of immigrants, the grandsons and great granddaughters of immigrants. the first time i ever came to this board chamber was 15 years ago to testify and support our city's sanctuary policy. part of why wanted to move this resolution and i know many of us did and it's because of the many stories of immigrants who are having their families ripped apart. in particular, i want to mention we have heard 1200 of our janitors families have been tragically impacted by the fact that we have not been able to pass con hen sieve immigration reform. this calls on our president to stop our immigration deportations, close to 2 million under this administration to extend the deferred action for childhood arrivals program to all eligible members of our undocument family because it doesn't do any good if we have a dreamer student who's allowed to stay whose mother and father are being ripped away. this should call to an end. l

. >> thank you >> good morning, supervisor mar and yee, and i am jerry robins with the sustainable streets division with the sfmta i have a five-minute powerpoint with an overview of the tour bus regulation issues that we deal with. thank you. >> tour buses do have complaints about the parking and the traffic conflicts as shown in these photographs. and wide turns that can cause concerns, and some of the buses use amplified loud speakers and the buses often have loud engine noise on hills. and emissions are also an issue. and loud buses on the city streets, tourism is the number one industry and the buses are a more ifish ent way to move people than if they drove in cars or rented cars and the bus pros vied a popular service. sfmta has tried to mediate and tried to seek, win-win situation, the tools that we have available for us is that we are able to restrict the tour buses with eight or more streets completely and we can either invoke that or not invoke it and there is not little ground and we say say that five buses are permitted but beyond that no buses are allow and it is kind of an a

yee. supervisor mar? >> and i just wanted to encourage mr. lee, to not give up and after showing success with your business, if it is approved today with these conditions to come back to show how you have been a responsible member of the community and that the concerns about crime and other issues kind of have not impacted your business and i think that we would at least i as a member of this committee would be appreciative of your effort to show a successful business and then seek, i think as supervisor yee mentioned to remove that condition of the off sale license, but i would just encourage you not to give up. and i agree with that and i think that if you can keep watching, and if you can't keep demonstrate, i think, the kind of good conduct that i think that you will demonstrate, that you could also bring this item back and i certainly would be open, you know, to lifting that condition, and but make sure that supervisor chui and his office are in agreement with that. okay. >> i see. >> and we certainly want to make sure that you have a vi

. >> hello, supervisors mar yee, and campos, my name is shany and i am here as part of the alamo square neighborhood, but not part of the neighborhood that was considered during this plan. and i know that safety was the initiation for this, but i wanted to emphasize the notice and quality alamo square was able to ban the buses after three years, but according to the mta, the ban took place based on the grid that alamo square provided. webster street was not included and just to address a point that was made, we do have low income housing on our street and so the problem was pushed to us and since january 15, we have had a number of tour buses come by using pas and the people are taking photos in my window. and i have had a tour bus, point up and say, look, there is an inhabitant of one of these beautiful victor ans to take a photo and people did and the notices is obnoxious and i contacted supervisor breed's office who told me that the board of supervisors has no jurisdiction and they said that to contact the mta or organize the neighborhood association did and so three years to get our

supervisors mar, avalos, wiener, yee. as you know, at the beginning of this week, yesterday mayor lee and state senator mark leno introduced legislation to protect the funding for city college. and i think that as we move forward to take the very important step of making sure that funding is available for the next four years that we need to make sure that we also as quickly as possible see the restoration of democratic decision making to this very important institution. the resolution that i'm introducing urges the state community college's chancellor brad harris, to restore the voice of san francisco voters and to bring back transparency and public accountability to city college of san francisco by promptly restoring the duly elected board of trustees. at a time when san francisco's leaders are coming together to support preserving funding and preserving city college, it is important that we ensure that there is access to quality education in san francisco and it is important that we do that, we do not lose sight of the
