i have been amazed and inspired by the ways our city has responded to these moments, and i know this has been an incredibly difficult year for us in our community, but remember, mask on, stay strong. by committing to the guidelines and following the tried-and-true preventative measures we know work, we can continue moving forward. thank you. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: thank you, dr. colfax, and just want to reiterate that now as a result of our vaccines, we're providing vaccines for those in 1-a and 1-b. many of you know that we announced that last week, and what that means is people who are teachers, people who are child care workers, those who are muni drivers and others are able to get the vaccines, but also, what's really exciting is that restaurant workers will be able to get the vaccine because of where we are in the 1-b tier. and today to talk about the restaurants and about what they face but also to get you excited about going to restaurants is laura thomas, the director of the golden gate restaurant association.

i'm going to reach out so we can discuss this infrastructure and how good it is for our city and our planet. >> hi, caller. your 90 seconds begins now. [inaudible] member of the san francisco transit riders. couple of comments, brief. i want to support making the slow streets program permanent, expanding that further across the city, and i'd like to call for a recovery of muni to full transit service levels. we need to get people out of cars. we need to get them out of cars and onto transit because of the multiple goals that our city has declared. i agree that there are issues with the safe streets program, but that does not mean we should end the program. same for the great highway closure, same for the j.f.k. closure. if you need to access the park, you don't need to park on j.f.k., as matt brezina said before me. we should be flexible. we should change things, like we did with the 55 dogpatch route, but we should fund things fully so as people return to businesses that are open, they can do so safely and in ways that are in line with our goals of being a transit first city in the f

and as we do all of that, our recovery will focus on moving our city forward. ople first. we will continue our work to cut the red tape for small businesses, because it's more important than ever. for example, in november, voters passed our small business streamlining measure, proposition-h. and it's already working. one small immigrant-owned business that wanted to convert a hair shop to an ice cream shop, saw their approval time cut from the normal six to nine months down to one day! one day! we'll build on this success. and make it even easier to turn an idea into a thriving small business. bureaucracy cannot keep getting in the way of people. our recovery also means building housing. now! during this economic downturn. as we rise again, let's not repeat the mistakes of the past. we will put affordable housing dollars to work, and streamline the approval process. even if it means going to the voters to do it. we will keep pushing to meet our goal of building 5,000 new homes each year. and can we finally put to rest the fantasy that supply and demand doesn't a

>> supervisor chan: you really think about traffic and traffic around our city. we have seen an increase of speeding and traffic coalition. in 2020 san francisco had the same number of fatal traffic collisions like 2019. we are falling behind on our coalition. it's really just again, before i even took office, it was a fatality on geary and 28th avenue. it was a very tragic senior that was hit by a vehicle and then just after that, even during pandemic, we would think that will be less collision because less travel. we had a cyclist in our district struck by a truck. broke both of his legs and sadly had to have one of his legs amputated. two weeks a cyclist was struck by a driver. this female -- these are just a few incidents that can play in the richmond alone. while sfmta had their rapid response team which is deploy when the collision certificates that site and recommend approval. we understand there's a high injury network. we trying to make improvements to the network. i think essentially is trying to understand is that really good way to -- it seems like the

that we began with our city, our home last year. you can see that this is in direct alignment with the our city, our home housing goal. you can see here the populations of adults, t.a.y., and families that are projected to be housed with each of these new investments, and the number of housing units or placements that we think we can achieve in each of these areas. so you see new flex pool, new acquisition, supporting newly created t.s.h., new workforce, and rapid rehousing expansion for youth. i'm sure there'll be lots of questions, and gigi and i can field those at the end, and i'll just keep moving through to slide 14. prevention -- really talks a lot about prevention in her report, and this is an area that the city is really excited about. i think prevention offers us an incredible opportunity both in terms of thinking about as we're coming out of this pandemic and eviction moratoriums are lifted, expecting to see an increased demand for homeless prevention services and utilizing prevention as a way to address the racial inequit

we continue to build out with acquisitions in partnership with the our city our home committee to bring on permanent housing. we are committing to gathering information on all potential psh sites, not limited to the buildings functioning as sip hotels and establishing a city strike team. >> i am not hearing you. >> it is cutting out. >> that is much better. >> sorry. we are interested in gathering information on all potential buildings to use for psh including sip hotels but not limiting. we are establishing a city strike team which is a task force to move forward with the acquisition strategy. really we want to lay out in partnership with our city our home criteria to take advantage of these opportunities so we are not looking at all projects but have a standard we agree on as we evaluate our responses we are able to move forward quickly and know that, hey, this project meets nine out of 10 priorities or something to that effect. as i mentioned previously, the recovery plan is the driving work of the department of homelessness. we are excited that any acquisition additional acquisition

a free summer learning program in which we will bring in the nonprofits, the business partners, our cityments and pretty much anyone who's willing to pitch in to help, to help with getting sites ready, help with donations, help with supporting our families. we're working on building a virtual platform for all of our school children. as you mentioned, it has been a really tough year. all of the presentations you presented, supervisors, have talked about dealing with the severe mental health and stress on our communities, and this here is to help support our children, youth, and families. don't need to go into details. our children have struggled with accessing the remote learning that our school district has been providing. our young people are missing being with their family -- with their friends, seeing their teachers, being with each other, and, of course, hearing with pediatricians, our young people are also experiencing a lot of mental health issues as a result of the isolation and the lack of connections that they need. and, of course, we know that all of these things are exacerbate

our city is addicted to the practice of subjecting every change in the city to micro inspection. this is crazy. the people that are concerned about the ferris wheel, i hope they are also equally concerned about the environment we need to make sure the time of elected officials is spent wisely. >> clerk: operations, let's hear from the next caller, please. >> i'm a long-term district 4 resident and an environmentalist and the people that are calling about not having this ferris wheel in for four more years or five are environmentalist. we also support no cars in the city, by the way. the luxury housing people -- i believe in science, all of the important organizations this year, the local wildlife organizations are all opposed to keeping the ferris wheel for five years and hurting the area for the animals. i do appreciate that the board of supervisors is taking the time and doing the right thing here. initially they asked for one year and i heard there was a struggle on that, that it was deeply considered before they got that approved. i can see this compromise for another year, b

we have had tension even in our city of san francisco. in order to move forward people have to really step back, have these difficult conversations, acknowledge the pain and hurt and wrongs that have happened and forgive. i think there is room to do that on every side of this equation. >> we will get back to those police reforms in a bit. lisa, tell us first about your personal journey, and why you are here speaking on those issues? >>> my older sister was denise mcnair, one of the youngest girls killed in the 16th street church bombing in 1963. a bomb was planted by the and it killed those girls and damaged the church and injured several others. i am here to share that story and share life lessons me and my family have learned over the years, dealing with this national tragedy. my goal is always the hope to bring together unity and help human beings understand we are all human beings and we can do better together than we can apart. >> lisa where you see the resistance coming in? where you see the people are not as comfortable with your m

it was a traumatic experience growing up and violent times in our city. ere as mayor does symbolize have far we have come as a city. we have a lot of work to do. yesterday on my first full day as mayor i had the opportunity to go back and see young people learning in the classroom. i visited a classroom where they were studying desegregation in boston and to be there in that classroom as someone who lived through that experience and able to share that experience with the students was pretty incredible and to be there as the first black mayor and the first woman mayor for our city was mind-blowing. it was great to see students in the classroom and learning and engage and not having to worry about that painful time in our history. that being said, we do have a lot of work to do in boston. these issues and challenges are not new. they are centuries old in the making. there is a lot of work to do when it comes to combatting structural racism in our city. i will bring my experience and unique perspective as a black woman to this work. >> from a national perspec

we deeply appreciate your commitment to our city and our communities. e support and ask -- >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> caller: hi, my name is marie sorenson. i'm with ia24. cultural districts define who we are as a city. cultural districts are the soul of our city. where we are necessary partners with the city, cultural districts are, and with businesses, residents, artists and the history of our town. we need to help define the past, the present and where we will be in the future and in terms of the cultural district, we have been instrumental in testing and helping vaccinate. this is how important cultural districts are. please, support item number 2. thank you. >> thank you for your comments. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, chair haney and supervisors. i'm rachel. an artist and arts and cultural administrator. thank you haves for your support. it's no coincidence that cultural districts are experiencing compounding impacts of this pandemic. our people are being attacked, excluded and pushed out. because of prop e

another part is the public health clinic and our partnerships across the city. our close collaboration from the outset enabled us to scale up programs and services quicker as we wrapped our arms around the city. and we have seen this virus take hold in communities where people have to leave their homes for work, increasing their exposure to covid-19 and who often live in larger households making it difficult to isolate from the pandemic. the d.p.h. and covid command, in partnership with our community partners, prioritized vulnerable populations in our emergency actions and response. we have come so far, but we still have farther to go, and we can go together. to my colleagues at public health and covid command, this year was so difficult for you where you found yourself in learning curves where the stakes were so high. your compassion and diligent work for communities have raised the bar for supporting these communities in overcoming barriers to better health and economic outcomes. and, you know, the other day, i saw a patient in clinic at our positive health pro

this is such an important project for our city. it is going to be a part of a larger transformation of this neighborhood and the area all-around us. i know that, for a lot of san franciscans, when they hear about colton street or colton alley, they probably wouldn't hear anything that rung a bell. the reality is the future of this alley is thankfully going to be one of housing, of hundreds of units for people in our city, especially people who are in need, who are formerly homeless. when my staff told me it was on colton street, i had to think for a moment of where that was. we think of our areas as lots of constituent requests and concerns. in the future, i'm looking to working with them and representing them and being a part of a larger transformation of this neighborhood. larry and c.h.p. and strata and the mayor have been working on this project for years. larry, i'd see him on thanksgiving at the horse races across the bay, and even years ago before i was a supervisor, he'd come over and bend my ear and say, do you know what's

standing strong, thank you all so much for your steadfast leadership and advocacy and work in keeping our city together. i'm so honored to represent you as the mayor of what i think is the most incredible city anywhere in the world. so as we reopen, let's get back to work. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: but we will celebrate soon. thank you all so much. take care. [applause] >> hi. i'm chris manners, and you're watching coping with covid-19. today, i'm going to be talking about checking with your neighbors. >> start off by giving your neighbor a call to see how they are or if they need help. if they don't answer, don't get anxious. try again later. check to see if their car is parked nearby. are they lights being turned on and off during normal hours? if you still can't contact them, contact your other neighbors and see if they've had contact with them recently. you can also leave a note in their mailbox, and when you do get in touch with them, ask if they'd like to share their emergency contact information. if you're getting groceries for a neighbor, get a mask and sanitizing wipe. put

i just live outside of our city and i really believe that when you spend twelve hours in the city you really do live there, you sleep somewhere else. but i really do appreciate your consideration. i thank you for this work. overall, the city needs legs and true support to work across the child care needs of our community. and, i do want to say one thing about the diversity of this group which is really important. we talk about true representation. i believe we need true representation across the c.a.c. group. thank you so much supervisor chan, and supervisor mandelman and supervisor peskin for the work in our city. >> chairman: thank you for invoking the name of my 1980s and i do thorny a year ago, but i do believe that more than ever early childhood education does need proper representation and also support as we have been up ended through this covid-19 crisis, and we are feeling it on all levels and so i have been very thoughtful and watching how i can contribute and it was ms. fromer's predecessor who recommended a few years ago that this is where i would start to dip my toe in and

more than half of our city commissioners are women and women make up more than half of our city department and director, including the city administrator's office, the department of emergency management, the fire department, and the human rights commission. but we also know that women have shouldered the burden of many of our society's inequities and disparities. that is why this month and throughout the year we must reaffirm our commitment to ensuring that women and girls everywhere especially here in san francisco are able to grow, succeed and thrive without fear of hatred or discrimination. we must continue our work to create equitable policies that do not disproportionately impact women in the work place. we must fight to ensure young women and girl of all background have equal access to a world class education. we must push to address the disparity that exists in our health care system, and provide culturally competent care for all women because when we champion these causes, our society is better for it. when we fight for him, for our mothers, grandmother, sisters, or daughters, or f

>> supervisor chan: you really think about traffic and traffic around our city. we have seen an increase of speeding and traffic coalition. in 2020 san francisco had the same number of fatal traffic collisions like 2019. we are falling behind on our coalition. it's really just again, before i even took office, it was a fatality on geary and 28th avenue. it was a very tragic senior that was hit by a vehicle and then just after that, even during pandemic, we would think that will be less collision because less travel. we had a cyclist in our district struck by a truck. broke both of his legs and sadly had to have one of his legs amputated. two weeks a cyclist was struck by a driver. this female -- these are just a few incidents that can play in the richmond alone. while sfmta had their rapid response team which is deploy when the collision certificates that site and recommend approval. we understand there's a high injury network. we trying to make improvements to the network. i think essentially is trying to understand is that really good way to -- it seems like the

the benefits of the program extend beyond industry and provide educational liberation for our city's most marginalized. today's graduate can expect salaries of over $70,000 to start and we need to save the program and all programs and certificates that provide economic training for our students. as and we need it serve the needs of our community. thank you. >> clerk: thank you. are there any other callers in the queue? >> no more callers in the queue. >> supervisor: public comment is now closed and i want to give commitment and i'm sure committee members feel the same about the need to prioritize city college and to partner closely with city college as they continue to face fiscal challenge. i wonder director sue if there's anything you may want to add about city college specifically. i know there's been layoffs and some recent financial challenges and i wonder if you can speak to how you're thinking about our collective commitment to city college moving forward in this budget process. >> thank you, chair haney for the question. i agree city college is an anchor institution for us in

our city attorney said that we are not required to actually approve this within our charter.more likely than not we're not required to do this. as supervisor safai said, it will be unusual for us to amend a contract that has already been entered into overriding that term with a new term without negotiating it with the other party. i also think, i agree with supervisor ronen, this is something that i heard a lot of positive feedback from my constituents. there's a lot of excitement and this has represented a future for san francisco where there's fun and where families and children are centered. i think that is important particularly when our city has been through such a tough time over the last year. youth groups and family and children who are excited to have the wheel there. i recognize that there's so many important issues in our city that we have to focus on. i feel like i heard more about this, spent more time with e-mails coming in and conversation with the full board than we have had on the overdose crises that has taken the lives over 700 people in a single year. i th

so this 500 is an estimate of what we think can be achieved with the available our city, our home funds. i think we have a lot to look at what we can do when we braid in other resources, like other state funds and bond dollars. but that's an example of what we can do with the available prop c dollars. >> so if i can just add to that, maybe not so -- maybe you are suggesting, but i would think that, you know, we're going to want that prop c money to leverage other funds right from the get go, it's not like 500 coming just prosecute prop c -- just from prop c, and you go out and use the other moneys. i think one of the things that you're going to have to grapple with on the committee is the strike team -- and if i have the wording correct on that -- to go in to, acquire negotiations with its units. what are we talking about? how much money did we want to set to that? that very much is set to the subsidy set, the operations and services funds that have to accompany that do you happen the road. so maybe between now and the time we meet as a committee. if we can tie those numbers down a litt

when this pandemic hit our city, our country about a year ago. we had to get ready. as much as dr. colfax and i fought over what was going on and whether or not we needed to close down the city because we understood the significant impacts on people's lives by making these hard decisions, we knew it was the right thing to do. we knew it was the right thing to do because it was about saving lives. when you look at where san francisco is in terms of our death rate, even though every life lost is tragic, we are the second densest city in the country with the lowest death rate of any major city in the country. we've saves thousands of lives here in the city. it started here at moscone center. i want to thank the director of the department of emergency management mary allen carol for her hard work. [applause] >> mayor breed: and the people who came here to work not only the folks who work within her department but so many city employees, who signed up as disaster service workers, who answered the call, and who have been showing up to deal with challen

they want to experience the businesses all over our city because they're unique. so this is an extension of our ability to ensure that we're taking a negative, that we're taking one of the most unintended consequences, something that never would been able to happen -- and when i say never, this never would have been able to happen if not for this crisis. so we're turning it on its head, just like prop h. i was very proud, when i first became supervisor. we removed, we started a pilot for helping businesses and neighborhood notifications, and the mayor took that citywide, and that was prop h. there's people that are going to say, are they accessible to the disability community? is this something that's going to be open to the public? but i really want to credit the mayor and her team, andres, robin abbad, all the folks from the small business community that have given their input, we're going to have parklets, we're going to have commercial space, we're going to have hybrids of in between, and the on going costs will be manageable, and this will be something that wi

our goal is to give to supervisors, city stakeholders and outline our budget for the 2021 cycle. i will pass it to commissioner vega. >> thank you, commissioner zhang. my name is gracie vega. i'm a youth commissioner for district 8. on february 8, the youth commission held a town hall in which we were able to hear from a completely different view on our city's budget concerns and needs. we held over 1,000 participants, over 200 of which were youth in t.a.y. we had representatives that were able to answer questions that youth had and were able to inform youth. so i'm going to pass it off. >> thank you, commissioner vega. i am commissioner chung, a mayoral appointment and chair of the civic appointment committee. our first goal is to allow the department of elections to continue our civil committee to invest in the long-term health of our democracy. as with the department of children, youth, and their families, we would like to see funding go into services that support both the physical and mental well-being of young people especially during this pandemic where resources are limite

when this pandemic hit our city, our country about a year ago.ncisco, we had to get ready. as much as dr. colfax and i fought over what was going on and whether or not we needed to close down the city because we understood the significant impacts on people's lives by making these hard decisions, we knew it was the right thing to do. we knew it was the right thing to do because it was about saving lives. when you look at where san francisco is in terms of our death rate, even though every life lost is tragic, we are the second densest city in the country with the lowest death rate of any major city in the country. we've saves thousands of lives here in the city. it started here at moscone center. i want to thank the director of the department of emergency management mary allen carol for her hard work.

our city officials, our staff, our state league, y'all, we did it. ot a chance to get direct funding to every city, town and village in america. in all of my years with nlc, and as a former mayor, nlc president, and now as your ceo, i'm not sure we have ever had a more critical moment for this conference than now. just weeks ago we welcomed a new administration and congress. it's been almost a year since our country shut down. we're still in the midst of a global pandemic and for the last year, you've been fighting this pandemic on your own as city leaders. but finally, help is on the way. let me take a moment to give you a realtime update on where we stand with covid-19 relief. the senate voted on an amended version of the covid-19 relief package this past weekend. the american rescue plan act of 2021. the package was expected to be passed as early as today in the house of representatives which includes 65 billion of direct funding to every city, town and village in america. it includes transportation dollars, housing and fema recovery funds that is

understand people have been preying on the most vulnerable in our community, the chinatown community and other communities throughout the city of oakland. i think for us to solve this problem is going to take a holistic approach. that means law enforcement, it also means community. partnership with our department of violence prevention we can get violence interrupters into the community to prevent crimes from occurring. >> can you talk to us specifically about the issues that you are seeing that have been raised because of the pandemic, gang violence for example, has been up. some of the people joining are very young. >> unfortunately gang violence has been up. i think that we haven't been able to utilize our cease-fire strategy as we have over the past several years. our cease-fire strategy has been truly successful reducing violent crime in the city. for many years we have seen historical lows in homicides. when the pandemic hit, it did not allow us to practice the strategy in the way in which we have done for many years. we can no longer directly communicate with people of the highest risk. we weren't able to do what we c

i have been amazed and inspired by the ways our city has responded to these moments, and i know this en an incredibly difficult year for us in our community, but remember, mask on, stay strong. by committing to the guidelines and following the tried-and-true preventative measures we know work, we can continue moving forward. thank you. [applause] >> the hon. london breed: thank you, dr. colfax, and just want to reiterate that now as a result of our vaccines, we're providing vaccines for those in 1-a and 1-b. many of you know that we announced that last week, and what that means is people who are teachers, people who are child care workers, those who are muni drivers and others are able to get the vaccines, but also, what's really exciting is that restaurant workers will be able to get the vaccine because of where we are in the 1-b tier. and today to talk about the restaurants and about what they face but also to get you excited about going to restaurants is laura thomas, the director of the golden gate restaurant association. [applause] >> hi, everyone, and thank you, mayor breed for

that ongoing capacity is a challenge for our city and our community .and we hear that from our providers loud and clear. we also note we are grateful to our providers for letting us know how meaningful that one-time bonus was for their staff and acknowledging their critical role they played in the healthcare response during covid so we look forward to continued conversations and trying to get resources allocated to that end. >>supervisor mar: that's a helpful clarification andwhat was that $10 million one time ? >>gigi whitley: the source of that was proxy. and it was taken off of budget taken off of reserve by the budget and finance committee of the board last december . one of the things just to frame up that i think all the questions are showing is complicated here is we had a different budget cycle last year hsa is also experiencing a standard budgeting process because of the timelines of the committee so what we're presenting here now is our proposal irregardless of the allocations ongoing from the committee so we are very early days in our budget

they want to experience the businesses all over our city because they're unique. t we're taking a negative, that we're taking one of the most unintended consequences, something that never would been able to happen -- and when i say never, this never would have been able to happen if not for this crisis. so we're turning it on its head, just like prop h. i was very proud, when i first became supervisor. we removed, we started a pilot for helping businesses and neighborhood notifications, and the mayor took that citywide, and that was prop h. there's people that are going to say, are they accessible to the disability community? is this something that's going to be open to the public? but i really want to credit the mayor and her team, andres, robin abbad, all the folks from the small business community that have given their input, we're going to have parklets, we're going to have commercial space, we're going to have hybrids of in between, and the on going costs will be manageable, and this will be something that will help the city continue to thrive and grow. so i'm

we also course at our internal processes you're aware of. cityattorney, oca, general service division, controller's office involved in our contracted approvals and our contracts to go to the health commission , to the committee of the health commission for review. the majority of the contracts that dph enters into. next slide. so again, you also have charity about quality and how we monitor performance in our contracts. we also have a pretty developed system and are always looking for ways to expand and enhance and improvethis . but we have multiple points in our system. we have you and the development of contracts so that each contract and each rfp we are working on thinking through outcomes that we wish to go off including those in contracts that a system of monitoring and auditing to determine whether we've met those objectives. this is always a challenge because there's so many pieces of work that we do that are about healthcare quality and outcomes that are challenging to measure this is a big focus for the department.we also have our extern

always one of the greatest challenges, in our case we believe that having an adequate number of police officers and the number that we have today and oklahoma city we would like to have more are voters approved an increase in our police officers a couple of years ago we believe that is integral to having good community policing you have to have enough officers on the street so they're not just running for 911 calls to 911 call in most of the expense is related to law enforcement in our personnel related so i think cost is going to be one challenge as we try to bring in new offerings, new types of response, different kinds of calls, the kinds of innovative things that we hear people talk about, mental health inc. that sort of thing that cost money and where is it going to come from if we want to keep a strong number of officers on the street building relationships and community policing, that is going to be one of the greatest challenges and not necessarily one that this task force can solve everybody's going to have to figure out how they find their own revenues on their own but i think that is obvious the one of the greatest challenges. >> let'
