supervisor mar? >> supervisor mar: thank you, chair haney. i just had a question just to try to understand this a little bit better. so the proposed -- it looks like it's about a 1.3% decrease in property tax rate from the prior year, and that's really based on the debt service -- my question is, where's that really sort of 1.3% decrease come from? >> sort of a combination -- thank you for the question, supervisor mar. it's a combination of the assessed secured value and the assessment role is, so it grew about 4% year over year, and also how much do we owe, what do we owe the investors that bought the general obligation bonds from the various taxing entities, and it turned out that the growth and the assessed values, the tax rate, what we need to charge to cover the debt service, the rate is a little bit less than it was last year. but there's two values: the assessed value and how much we owe -- what we need to generate from property owners. >> supervisor mar: got it. and then i don't know if there's a raw estimate if how much that 1.3% red

and how they're reacting on the streets across men mar, there are still some small protests. and these have been going on in these months since the co back in february. so we're seeing some smaller protests. there's one, at least that had assigned that, that directly reference the national unity government so that those are still going on. that's one way they're reacting to this announcement. one thing that needs to be said is that it's not as though there are armed fighters streaming onto the streets across me. and me, or this is something that we knew was going to be coming down the road when the national unity government said that they had an armed force that they wanted to use against the gentle forces. one thing that need to be said to the bulk of that will come from these at an armed ethnic groups along the borders in me and mar. they have been fighting the gentle forces over the last couple of months, but for, for decades before that as well. so they are going to be part of this and have been part of this movement against the junk military action against the junk. but

in the 1990s, the same group of women began sending rovers to mars. by the late 1990s, after careers of 40 to 50 years at nasa, most of the group was ready to retire. in 2013, i held a reunion of this group of women at the jet propulsion laboratory. it was such a remarkable experience to get to be in the lab with them and hear their memories firsthand. i was also surprised by how much their histories had been forgotten by nasa. one example of this is the story of sue finley. in 2013, i held a reunion of this group of women at the jet propulsion laboratory. it was such a remarkable experience to get to be in the lab with them and hear their memories firsthand. i was also surprised by how much their histories had been forgotten by nasa. one example of this is the story of sue finley. sue finley was hired in 1958 by macy roberts before nasa was even officially formed. she still works there today. she's nasa's longest serving female employee. however, in 2004, nasa made a new administrative rule that if you don't hold an advanced degree, you can't have th

and you both actually travelled, at donald trump's invitation, to mar-a-lago to speak with the former president. amid the many questions you asked concerned the events at the capitol on january 6th and you write in part this, i would venture to say i think it was the largest crowd i had ever spoken to before, trump said. it was a loving crowd, too, by the way. there was a lot of love. in all fairness, the capitol police were ushering people in, trump said. the capitol police were very friendly. they were hugging and kissing. you don't see that. there's plenty of tape on that. okay. i don't know where to begin but why don't we back up and carol, if you could fill us in on why you think he invited you to mar-a-lago and allowed you guys to sit down and talk to him about all of this? >> mika, i think that phil and i both recognize, as you do, because of how long you've been chronicaling this presidency that donald trump loves an audience. when we were coming to see him, he had been stripped of some of his opportunities and audiences. no longer was he on the south lawn talking to reporters

supervisor mar gave his opening remarks.over now to kelly unless any other colleagues would like to say something before we start the presentation. are you there? >> yes, supervisor safai. good morning. thank you to anna for running the slide deck for me. i am the special project manager with the department of public health. i have been collaborating with the community partners regarding getting sub-acute beds online. today we will give you a quick overview of where we are at as we re-engage in this work. as the supervisor noted we paused this work due to covid-19 efforts. it took all hands for dph to respond to covid-19 response. things are thankfully improving. in august of 2021 we engaged with the consultant we have been working with before and with the controller's office to begin the work again. pick up where we left off. they will be working with us to begin to do an updating where we are at with what is in the pipeline for the sub-acute unit and also what the community partners have a willingness and ability to suppor

>> yes. >> chair mar: okay. i don't see any other questions from colleagues, so why don't we go to public comment. mr. clerk? >> clerk: if i may just bring up one quick thing before we go to public comment about the form of this ordinance, you may have a message from deputy city attorney ann pearson discussing a finding that is included in this ordinance that references findings of authority with 1986 part m and other priorities. that should be amended substantially out of this ordinance. i just wanted to note that before we go to public comment. we continued to work with calina mendoza from the department of technology for public comment. for those who are watching on cable, or sfgovtv, please call in via the instructions scrolling on your screen. that would be by calling 415-655-0001. meeting i.d. 2495-033-8403, pressing pound and then pound again, and then star, three to enter the queue to speak. miss mendoza, could you connect us to our first caller. >> hello. thank you for the hearing today. i have a small
