ms. melara: no. ms. lam: no. ms. mondejar: no. mr. schreiber: no. ms. tidwell: the group has spoken. no. mr. mcdonnell: thank you. moving to district 5. additions to district 5? >> can i ask a question of the city attorney and whether the consultant definition specifically around that japan town fillmore areas, is that sufficient for the neighborhood versus listing japan town somewhere? do we list out those institutions? >> in terms of recognize neighborhoods, we reference them both in the neighborhoods. i don't think -- it is helpful to have documented. those institutions are part of the neighborhood. i don't think we need to list them separately here. >> there is an item proposed -- i think there is sufficient public testimony to support what those institutions are. mr. mcdonnell: and be consistent with the use of neighborhoods versus institutions. we remove the institutions. ok. we remove the institutions. we will include japan town- fillmore.

any other edits ms. lam? >> after ms. tidwell adds hers, i want to make it consistent with the format. >> very good. anyone else? >> yes, we still have the question of district seven, drafted by member tidwell? >> we'll come back to that that moment. we just need for ms. tidwell to catch up with us. she's entering her two districts. while she's doing that on the heading, on the reasons for adoption, that should not be there. we aren't offering reasons for adoption. >> i propose that sorry, district considerations as opposed to findings, which would more suggest the one to five. >> sure. >> ok, so going one, typing in four also -- >> hold on. is there anything in three? ok, you're going to begin to type in four? that's fine. >> yeah. >> five is fine and then when you're ready, there are edits to six, so that, again, it is parallel in construction and consistent. >> and are you going to want seven too? >> yes. >> ok, let me do that. >> thank you. >> ok, sorry, i'm ready. >> it's ok. so that was four -- you finished with fou

ms. tidwell's list. >> we left the tenderloin out entirely. that was one of our primary concerns. mr. mcdonnell: we are on 6 now. so, tenderloin. >> we look at district consultants now? where are we? mr. mcdonnell: we are on district 6. this is the consultants lists list association. all of those will come off. we will now refer to ms. tidwell's list. mission bay, south beach, rincon hill, treasure island, filipino community, and the tenderloin just added by ms. melara. >> are we keeping it together in district 6? >> we did not fully achieve that for the mission, either. mr. mcdonnell: we will not include the tenderloin. >> there is a planning department-recognized neighborhood. correct the spelling. replace "n" with "p." mr. pilpel: could i suggest combining those and saying south of market? that seems to be more of a neighborhood that we could recognize. >> they are separate, though. mr. mcdonnell: hold on. we have heard one proposal. i will confirm the spelling. >> no. that is not righ

gregg's ms. lopez -- >> ms. lopez never testified to that. she testified to the opposite, which is what made the statement admissible. ms. williams made declarations, and it is also in the video, that he is very powerful. he said he can take away theo and that he is very powerful. >> it is your position that by saying he is powerful that it implies that he will use his power as an elected official and we should implied that he will use the power of his elected office to try to take custody of his child. or exert force over his wife. >> that is what ms. lopez said she understood it as. >> where is that testimony? >> there are two things. one is a testimony that she sent -- of a text message that she sent st., "use your power." she said that in her testimony. she understood her -- his power, and it is in circumstantial evidence as to what he meant when he said he was very careful. -- powerful. ili am happy to give specific e reverences' after i have a chance to sit down and look at the -- references after i have a chance to sit down and look a

ms. caen, ms. vietor, mr. courtney, i really had no questions of them, other than what was being asked. your service has been incredible to the puc. i think even more broadly, all three of you to the city of san francisco in so many fashions. i really want to thank you for your service. i'm more than happy and delighted that you're willing to serve again, and that i will be happy to support it. and also to the comments supervisor campos made, i think especially because the laborers are to the puc, it's so important that we have labor being represented here, couldn't support them more fully. vince, you are a great representative of your union. you should be proud of what you do. thank you for your willingness to come back. i will make a motion to amend supervisor campos' motion to do this, we're going to make a motion to amend item no. 2, to -- for ms. cae, make the motion approving the the mayor's appointment, make a motion -- do them separately or together? >> chair kim: do them together, just a motion to ame

i think ms. akers, you've shown clearly -- you've demonstrated your dedication previously to working on these issues. i was really interested in learning more, in the future, about your assessment of exotic dancer in our night life industry. i think that's interesting. safety can be looked at from a public health perspective versus a police enforcement perspective and i think it would be really interesting to hear more on whoo we can do around that category. as a woman i think there's a lot that we can do around public health and night life, not just for women but all sorts of entertainment. so i would be excited to support you today. i do want to thank both mr. alexander and mr. grillo for coming before us. mr. alexander i know you served on the immigrant rights commission. i fortunately when you served on that and you're incredibly dedicated and knowledgable about immigrant communities. today my support stems from an applicant with specific experience in the arena that this seat is supposed to

actually i think ms.t came in. >> chair kim: i see her. >> i don't know if she wants to say a few words. >> chair kim: can we have you come forward. thank you for being here. we know you were with us a couple of months ago and answer the numerous questions from the rules committee. of course you came on near the end of a previous term that you were filling, and we appreciate that -- served for a couple of months now and coming back for a reappointment. if you'd like to speak briefly and maybe a couple of comments. >> thank you for inviting me back. hello again, supervisors. i apologize for being a little late. i just wanted to thank you for the opportunity to be here again. we did speak a few months back when i was first appointed to the board of appeals, and i guess just to remind you who i am, and my qualifications for the reappointment, i am speaking reappointment. it's been a very fruitful two months and i very much enjoyed the service and welcome the opportunity to continue serving in this capacity w

withoutmçmk ms.r, please call item 2. >> alisa miller: item 2, resolutiong+w,ñ authorizing a retroactive acceptance of a grant from san francisco park alliance for windmill project phase 3. >> chair mar: thank you. grant that i'm the sponsor of. and we have dan mauer?ç÷;j frome recreation and parks department. this is windmills, one of two, that are park. mr. mauer. >> good afternoon, board members,&rj department. the yft is an accept and expend $513,000, 375 come from[?kcñ the gordon moorelÑ foundation. these funds will be]o< coupled with open space funds tj complete the phase of three phase project. it is open.a.0p and operational. these funds will be used to and other interpretivepe educational exhibits which will complete"f i know there is tremendous support from the dutch -- whenst the huge crane came and putw< that -- is it a copper dome on the south i know there is tremendous community support for this as zñ well. colleagues, if there are no questions, let's open this up for public comment. i

ms. norton, will each control 20 minutes. the chair recognizes the gentleman from california, mr. denham. mr. denham: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that all members may have five legislative days to revise and extend their remarks and include extraneous material on h.r. 2903, as amended. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. denham: thank you, mr. speaker. i yield myself such time as i may consume. the speaker pro tempore: the gentleman is recognized. mr. denham: mr. speaker, i ask unanimous consent that the exchange of letters between the committee on transportation and infrastructure and the committee on homeland security be included in the congressional record. the speaker pro tempore: without objection. mr. denham: h.r. 2903, the fema re-authorization act, would re-authorize fema and make important reforms that will save money and speed up disaster recovery. it keeps fema funding at current levels, it fully complies with the house budget rules and includes bipartisan

i spoke to ms. goldstein. i didn't know at that time i could rerequest a rehearing. >> president hwang: not a rehearing to move it so you'd have more time to analyze the document before you, before our hearing. >> i had e-mailed her earlier when i was frustrated that i was not getting the document -- >> president hwang: after you got the documents. >> no. i did not. the hearing was the next day. >> president hwang: right. thank you. >> if we can hear from the permit holder now. >> good morning. i'm mary hobson, project manager for the recreation and parks department, representing the permit holder. i would like to state that, you know, we do not believe that any issues were raised in the appellant's request for rehearing. that was not originally discussed in some form during our august 22nd hearing, and that these issues that have been raised -- had they been raised, would not have affected the outcome of that vote. i just wanted to go over the key points that were raised by ms. gallagher and give you a clarif

i'm not sure there was agreement that everything the sheriff and ms. lopez said about the incident were not credible. more over, that's not really a finding of fact. what i think we we have here is things we say happened that we agree happened rather than weighing the credible of one witness over the other. i think the vagueens of this is prop lematic to me, i would not have voted for that. will my fellow commissioners: >> i agree with commissioner r edding. i think we had quit a discussion act the video, and i think it is important to understanding our reckmentation. i think it's important to understood why we found what we found and why we found it to be official misconduct. that was a big part of the discussion. so, if it's perhaps not appropriate in the findings of fact portion, perhaps we can insert that innocence in the discussion of the majority view. >> i think it would be more appropriate there. >> i have no objection. >> the second suggestion, goes to item number 7. (. my comments maybe, that it should go n rather than the findings of fact in

whether it's ms. simon or ms. forsley, that we have the opportunity to appoint you to city commission at some point because i think each one of you has something to offer that the city could benefit from. so i make that motion. thank you. >> chair kim: thank you, supervisor campos. supervisor farrell. >> supervisor chiu: sprank tra , chair kim. these are always difficult decisions but we have to move forward with someone. let me say a few things because a lot was brought up in the public comment and otherwise. speaking as someone who did not vote to seat mr. wolfe, i guess it was a number of months now to the sunshine ordinance task force, there was certainly no intent to stop the task force from meeting, and agree that there was, as supervisor campos mentioned, a general unawareness of what was happening by doing so, and stopping the task force from meeting by our charter. i do have a bit of a different approach though. i don't -- just because of that, i don't believe we need to seat someone necessarily. we still

so why don't we ask if -- actually, ms. bose or ms. -- did you have any remarks at all?rnoon, chair mar, supervisors. the small business commission heard this matter on june 11th, and it did -- its recommendation is to approve with recommendations, and our recommendation. one of the recommendations is in the current form of the legislation with a policy credit, which our office did work on with oawd in the transit sustainability project. so the small business commission's final recommendation would be to approve this piece of legislation. and we're pleased with the policy credit for small businesses. >> chair mar: thank you. ms. bose, did you have any remarks? >> thank you, supervisors. nothing more than what alicia said but i do want to reiterate we're very supportive of this because it's one of the ways we fund our system. so we do want you to approve this. thank you. >> chair mar: thank you. now, let's open this up for public comment. is there anyone from the public that would like to speak? so three minutes max. thank you. >> good afternoon. my name is steve cookland

ms. mondejar: i'm not really sure bridget ms. melara: i agree this information has to get out to the media and as many people as possible, as soon as possible. by tomorrow, this will be old news, so a press conference is probably it less than effective. it is more trying to get the information out. mr. mcdonnell: thank you. any other comments? i wouldn't say whether it is a press conference or not, the idea is it is a moment of idea distribution. i don't want to get caught up on the language of "press." mr. pilpel: perhaps since we have issued press releases before, if we could just issue a short release saying that we have adopted this matter and report, distribute that to anyone we could think of it as a beginning, we certainly have seen some coverage today. i don't know of the board of supervisors would want you to make a short presentation at a meeting on tuesday, to just say, is there, something along those lines. mr. mcdonnell: okay, thank you. mr. alonso: the press is out there, so we could just run out in the next five mi

ms. karros do those things about me, i want you to know -- by the way, it was in january by the way. because you know why? i thought i had figured out a way to make teaching pay. [laughter] tv job, right? be a teacher in the tv job. this is unbelievable that left in january another surreal teacher. but when listening to ms. carroll said those nice things to me, the greatest compliment at the end of the year was i gone through this journey with her and i'm reading your staff. she said -- she asked me what i consider coming back? i thought that was the greatest compliment, you know? but i said, ms. carol at my age, i'm not sure what to care this much about anything. [laughter] well, just 90 thank you all for being here. i appreciate you coming. and another thing, this is weird. you know, writing this book and been out on this tour, a lot of teachers coming up to me. and by the way, most of them say, i accept your apology. [laughter] february go, people are going, i accept. but i realize --

ms. the enhanced authority has empowered the f.t.c. to better protect american consumers through robust cross-border information sharing, investigative assistance and correlation building with foreign consumer protection agencies. in a 2009 report to congress, the f.t.c. noted the significant role the actors played in facilitating cross-border cooperation in investigations and enforcement proceedings, along with the growing need for continued cooperation to combat new and existing global fraud. simply put, mr. speaker, the expanded authorities are working to protect the american people and congress needs to make sure they remain in place so the federal trade commission can effectively combat cross-border scaments. the original safe web act passed in the 109th congress included a sunset provision that would cause these enhanced authorities to expire in december of next year. house bill 6131 will extend these authorities to september of the year 2020. mr. speaker, i am a strong supporter of

ms. -- secretary: ms. fewer, ms. wynns, mr. yee. 5 ayes. commissioner: thank you. oh, you did not call the students. now, it is time for the superintendent for this evening. superintendent carranza? superintendent carranza: good evening, and i want to congratulate you on the "r's." they get better every evening. i want to congratulate all of our faculty staff, parents, and all of our schools for a smooth opening of schools. i think i had heard some parents refer to it as silky smooth. i was pleased and proud of what i saw. schools were welcoming. students were eager and ready to learn with their new backpacks and pencils, and teachers were energized and ready to go. of course, i did get to see some that were anxious about going to a new school. i did not see many kindergartners crying, but i did see a few parents. i can also relate. the first night, i rushed home that night to hear what she had to say about her first and middle school and was relieved to hear her thoughts on the day and her saying how much she liked middle school. congratulations. while everyone pi

i'm sure ms. hobson can. with respect to our department appellant stated in the brief and a few minutes ago that mr. sanchez at the august hearing did indicate no work was to take place in the summit. it is our understanding tonight that no work is to take place in the summit. i'm sure ms. hobson could confirm that now if you so choose. >> president hwang: please. before you speak, ms. gallagher just raised a illustration. can you just raise it again so maybe you can address -- no. just what you're trying to signal to us. okay. >> i think what mr. sanchez articulated at the first meeting is that there is no work at the summit, covered under permit 1610. the one that is suspended before you for consideration today. we do have work at the summit under a -- actually i think i gave you the wrong number. 0448 is the permit that's under suspension, which is the bathroom, pathways, and retaining wall permit. there is work at the summit under a subsequent permit which has been issued and has also been appealed by ms.

i've been on the task force for 10 years, and the interest that ms. simon and ms. wilson have shown is certainly admirable. however i think in addition to the disability factor, i think there is one other thing that gives an edge to mr. wolfe, and that is, as you know, at this time, the committee on information technology and the department of technology are attempting to consolidate and upgrade the city's electronic record system with respect to storage backup and retrievable. and this is an area where the task force is -- as you can imagine, very interested. and mr. wolfe has long experience in information technology. that is a matter of fact -- as a matter of fact, what he does professionally. so i think that that should merit strong consideration as you go forward. again, i think, you know, mr. wolfe has served on the task force. he's done so in an admirable fashion. thank you. >> chair kim: thank you. >> good afternoon. my name is diana d. matthews, a small business othe owner. i'm here to speak on behalf of my colleague and friend, kai wilson forsley. every d

ms. brown, are you ready yet? take your time. >> i'll just do it on... >> okay. >> these are all the children that are being murdered in san francisco. well, we can just watch the video. you can just tell from the pictures there. and i'm showing this because these cases haven't been involved yet and our children are still killing each other. and they're unsolved homicides. >> crime and violence in unsafe neighborhoods -- [inaudible] >> this is an organization called the healing circle, which i a member of, senior advocate and office/administrator. and i also want to show pictures of other young men that have been murdered in san francisco. take that off and -- >> thank you, inspector monroe. thank you, ms. brown. next speaker. hi. my name is rebecca and i work with the -- foundation. i want to thank ms. hicks for the report of the citizens complaints. so there were a few notable things for me going on. one was that police weren't taking calls of domestic violence seriously. they weren't getting full information in

it i stand here in support of ross mirkarimi, ms. lopez, and theo, the family that has been most affected by this process. i paid attention. i watched as the questions were asked by europe -- by you all. this is a process that never should have happened. and everything after that fact has been created to justify a bad act. initially, there should not have been harshness between people love each other. as people who have families, you probably understand it gets to that point. but this process, especially the removal of an elected official, it should never have begun. i feel for you because it was begun and you have had to go through the process of wading through the mountains of evidence. i understand that you have the lot to look at here. and that is what i suggest you do. the facts from the people who were there, ross and ms. lopez arte all the people whose testimony matters here. what we are seeing now, and what we saw from the beginning of this case is the highly on to justify, i think, the responsible act of putting this forward

director goldstein: ok, we can hear now from ms. hester, and she is representing the section 14 party, and for those who do not know what that is, this is someone in an adjoining property who filed and was somewhat successful. >> sue hester, and i wanted to start with a correction. secretary pacheco: ms. hester, i am sorry. i am only to give her seven minutes, or 14? >> i will be brief. you were the guineapi
