ms. parrilla, asked her not to apply, it would be confusing. ms. wong had an older application. she's already seated by the local homeless cordoning board. >> supervisor kim: how can you be on the rules committee agenda if you are on the committee? >> she applied a while ago as did mr. langford. some of the applications have been held by the clerk's office for some time. >> (off mic) (off mic) >> she is on the shelter monitoring committee; she will not seek reappointment for the local homeless coordinating board. >> (off mic) >> okay, appreciate that clarification. i will reorder the seats. julia d'antonio [sounds like], seats 1. for seat 2, jenny parrilla. for seat 3, nicholas kimora, having direct services experience. seat 4, to andrew mendez. and seat 5 for isaac langford. >> (off mic) (off mic) >> supervisor kim: i'm not sure it we'll have an applicant for seat 6. >> (off mic) seat 4 is fine. >> supervisor kim: (laughter) city attorney? >> even though he did not apply to seat 4, you can appoint him to seat 4 as long he has been with that community health services agency. >>

ms. parrilla. >> i was welcome the first time. i'm sitting on the seat now. i work with the homeless. i visited the homeless shelters. i was home as myself. we truly need latin speakers to help out and to be open and understanding. the majority of the latin speakers out there, they come from their countries; they don't know how to read their own language. you are helping them reach their own language. and also interpret for them there are many homeless shelters that are in need of understanding why they are homeless. they understand the situation. when they have been there longer than expected, that is when they need help to understand. you need to understand that connecting them to those agencies does not mean that they will move quickly. it takes time. the latin speaking community, they need to get out there. they need to come in and start helping out an understanding that it is really a great achievement. it is helpful to everyone. that is all i have to say. >> supervisor kim: thank you for being here. >> you're welcome. >> supervisor kim: mr. langford? >> hello. >> hi. >> my name
