with that, i'm delighted that supervisor stefani has recommended ms. leung for this position. >> thank you very much supervisor peskin. thank you supervisors for this opportunity to speak with you today. let me start with the fact that i love our city parks. i'm in parks everyday with my dog. for me, like most san franciscans, our parks are our backyard. for many years, i have served as a volunteer with friends of lafayette park. we have found community, pre-covid and in our monthly cleaning and greeting activities, in our seasonal get togethers, even movie nights. i'm a representative of how parks make life better here in our urban environment. i appreciate the san francisco is the fourth city in our nation where all resident have access to bring space within a 10 minute walk. during this covid pandemic, i see the creative ways our community is reimagining their live outdoors. more than ever, access to bring space in our open parks are where we can find our well-being, where we can be healthy and where we can feel connected. i'm very grateful to san francis
