. >> i'm here to support ms. parks for seat number 13. i'm an immigrant. i came here when i was 10, went to school here, and every single obstacle you guys talked about, i'm experiencing right now. ms. parks has helped me for some of those things. i think she's competent and aware, generous. thank you. >> anyone other member of the public wishing to speak? seeing none. public comment is now closed. [gavel] >> i just want to thank everyone for coming. as supervisor ronen said, this is a really highly qualified applicant group. i was member of the rules committee before and we appointed many commissioners, advisory boards, and this by far has the most expertise. i means the incredible. this is the first round, i think of this body, meaning that we are just launching it now. we hope that it will advise the board of supervisors and also give us good recommendations, but also help us to perfect what we're doing here in san francisco to have the cannabis business be a robust viable business here with meeting our equity goals too. i want to thank everyone for com

thank ms. parks, the same question, how important do you think it is to have diversity on this committee? >> i think diversity, it's amazingly important. if we can see our committee as diverse as you guys up there, it would be really helpful for us. people made decisions based on their life experiences and as much as everybody may have a heart for the experience, it's only the folks that are from those experience, or women, or anything that can properly advise into what that experience is like and what they need. i think it's very important. >> thanks. >> thank you so much. >> thank you. >> good morning. >> good afternoon. >> it's 12:39. yeah. i have two applications. one would be the application for seat 13 and 14. >> got it. >> i do wish to respect your time. if there are any questions, i wish to be able to say such. just going with evidence though, i do have a political science degree from the great state of arizona. make that be the copper state, the aztec state, and the grand canyon state. the d

ms. parks. >> good afternoon supervisors. my name is leah white, but i am known as leah parks because i still do photography under that name and that's how i earned that. my early life of san francisco, i was born and raised here and i am so proud to be from san francisco. i went to rooftop elementary school, who had an amazing arts program and i'm also committed to diversity. i got into rooftop because of i'm half filipino and half jewish and they needed more filipino students to come to the school so i was able to get into that program. you can imagine what 24th street was like in that time period and i was a having a blast, much to my parents' dismay. eventually it got me sent to an alternative correctional facility in new mexico. i was away for a year and a half in a drug detox program, when i was 17 years old. i came back and i started city college and started studying criminal justice because prior to getting sent away, i was a part of youth moments here . it was called third eye movement. we were committed to fighting

parking placard. maybe they get twice the time limit because you need more time to get in and out of the vehicle, but as a way to reduce abuse in those types of zones. >> msolinski: thank you. i'll be brief. thank you for presenting. i love a lot of the ideas, more white zones, reducing flag stops, et cetera. i'm curious, of course, the competing interest is parking. how do you balance that? curious what the analysis is like? [laughter] so one item i didn't touch on in the presentation is the framework. and so the idea of the framework is to say that in different parts of the city, there are different needs and priority. if we're in a residential part of the city, then, really, most of the curb space is for peoples' private vehicles. however, if we're in downtown, i think you may have noticed, there is virtually no parking for peoples' private vehicles on the street. it happens off-street in the garages, and the street is more muni, commercial loading, white loading. in the neighborhood, commercial areas, like valencia, it's kind of this mix of both. and so there it's really using our public outreach and planning process to work with the neighborhood to f

very strange week because ms day we had this rather gloomy phone call saying a deal was essentially impossible. then leo varadkhar and borisjohnson went for a walk in the parknly things were back on and now we are in a tunnel. should be pleased or baffled? it depends if there is light out of the tunnel. we will see. it looks like borisjohnson gave a concession or rather had a glimpse of the real world and suddenly thought this is it. it looks as if we are back to something that the eu actually proposed two years ago which is a border on the irish sea. we do not know the details, the eu is interested and one thing whether it works or not and whether controls and checks take place and now the irony is that as part of what theresa may's proposal was about. we'll see whether there is a deal, probably, hopefully in a few days during the summit and then the dup has been quite silent, usually they reject it straightaway. they did not do that so that is saturday the mother of all battles at the house of commons, next saturday. but of course the opposition, labour could say we will attach it with a vote for a second referendum. on that question of what happens at we

ms. mccollum: this is an prnt bill to protect one of america east most iconic national parks and elevate the voices of tribal communities. tribal lead verse called on congress to permanently protect this region from ewe rain yum mining. these communities have seen firsthand the devastating impact uranium extraction can have on their live, their health, and the health of their children. for example, a tribe that his in the bottom of the grand canyon. contamination of the aquifers would destroy their crops and livestock. even their ability to remain on tribal homeland is at risk. it's time for congress to stand up for future generations who are relying upon furs clean water, public lands, and priceless resources. as the chair of the interior environment appropriations subcommittee, i hear from americans about the value of conserving our public lands prork tecting our air and water. the trump administration agenda puts that all at risk by prioritizing profits for mining companies over our public health and the health of our environment. in my home state of minnesota, the trump administratio

ms. brown. >> well, yes. and i mean one of the things with vision zero is a lot of times we get pushback from neighbors. i mean, that's really truthful. we want to take out a parking space so people can see you on the corner. there's a lot of things to do with vision zero and push forward. we need to really look at not having people turn right on a red light. i think that's something. and then also on if the larger streets, like visadero. that's one of the reasons that a woman -- an 80-year-old woman was killed on the road, someone was trying to rush through the traffic, the two lanes of traffic and hit her while turning left. so these are the things that we need to do. we need to do those fast. but i think that we are -- the board of supervisors has said we want to push vision zero much faster. and we need to do that. it's not only for pedestrians, because whether you ride a bike, you're a pedestrian. we really need to do this kind of work as fast as possible. >> moderator: thank you very much. mr. lam. >> yes. so i agree. i think for bikes and doctor -- bikers and pedestrians. if you put a sign or a light up, it's going to stay there for over 20 years maybe. and
