san franciscans approved it, every single neighborhood in san francisco approved it, and the neighborhoods that surround it gave it more than 80% approval. this is smart development. those of us living in the area yearn for this and realize how important this is to our overall well-being. thank you again, commissioners, for allowing me to speak. >> thank you. may aguirre. >> good afternoon, president boston marathon don, good afternoon commissioners, director forbes, and members of the public. my name is aguirr 1ed. the parks alliance is the largest park organization serving san francisco's diverse parks and open spaces. we currently sponsor and support a network of over 200 groups, leveraging their ability to develop and maintain creative spaces to maintain in this city. the san francisco parks alliance raises millions to sustain parks and open spaces. today i'm here to -- in the parks alliance, we believe the creation of the. [ inaudible ] -- waterfront and ply an important role in planning equity around city spaces. mission rock development plan with eight acres of new parks is a vital

we can pat ourselves on the back and say we've done everything we can for unemployed san franciscans, but that's not true. we haven't done enough for formerly incarcerated residents, for non-english speakers. we now have a partnership with chase, mortensen clark, to train up to another 40 workers. we've got a partnership that was referenced in marias's presentation at glenn eagle's golf course, so we're trying to use this labor shortage as an opportunity to bring more san franciscans into the city. >> so i appreciate that, but i think as a commission, we need to look at good faith versus mandatory, just to make sure that what we're asking is the -- adhered to. there's a lot to that we can still do, and i think looking at formerly incarcerated individuals, giving them an opportunity, is a good thing, and again, give them pride that they're helping build this great city. i appreciate your efforts, mr. arce, and everyone coming here today and sharing your stories, because it is important. that's what makes this worth it, right? that's what makes being up here and seeing all of you worth

how our programs help address the social determinants of health and dph's commitment for all san franciscans in the face of uncertainty with the aca. the next section, which is about dph, we introduced the two division: the san francisco health net work and the population health division, and their roles in our commission to protect and promote the health of san franciscans. we've also included our 2017 organizational chart in this section, and overall, the information provides an overview of the functions and services across dph. our last intro ductory section in the report is the overview of the health section. we also include bios for the commissioners that were serving in that fiscal year. following the health and finance committee feedback, we've incorporated the changes into this section. the bulk of our annual report focuses on the programatic highlights, and these start with three highlights across dph in fiscal year '17-'17, the first being our public health accreditation. we were awarded accreditation on march 9, 2017. at that time we were one of nine health departments in californ

keeping on, because it's important, the work you're doing, because you're bringing san franciscans, giving them taunt to take pride in the work that they're doing here in our city. when it comes to the issues around the warriors stadium, you know, i hope, you know, when we voted for this project, i was the one that moved the item because i believed that it was more than just building a building, but it was lifting up an entire community, and i hope you don't forget that, because that's the reason why i vote for all these projects because it's not just voting for something, it's like how do you lift this stuff, everybody? by providing jobs and opportunities to people in their city. my dad, who worked in construction, many, many years ago, for dinwiddie, many years ago, he would take us and we would watch these buildings take hips. i'm so proud that my dad's fingerprints are on these buildings, and i think that's what we need to continue to do, and that's a promise of what was redevelopment and partnerships. josh, thank you so much for joining us. i do have a couple of questions for you as i

[chuckles] also i just want to support all of the other san franciscans here. you can't be ground breaking if you allow yourself to be hemmed by what's risky. seems you need to be focused on doing things that are not happening from commercial banks, or maybe even credit unions and really serving the needs of those communities and those people. in particular, whoever leads this needs to be a community development banker. too often in these situations that i've been around, a banker gets hired. and then they do what a banker does and then it's the same thing as a bank. so i just think those are things to look out for. and one part of this, i hope, will be community development lending. so that you are really answering those problems. everything else, i think, has been covered so thank you for doing this. >> hello supervisors cohen and fewer. thank you for bringing this up and fighting for this cause. i think this is really important to a lot of people in san francisco and a lot of people who don't know it's important to them yet will soon learn, i think. i think

i'm a proud san franciscan and living in dogpatch for over 14 years, and this community is my family. i lived in various neighborhoods, but this dogpatch is my really connect -- close hearted people. that being said, as board of -- member of the dogpatch association, i've seen amazing changes all around dogpatch community, the bayview district, mission bay, and mission rock. this is exciting. we are living in exciting i am times because our city is growing for the best. here's why i ask you to support the mission rock project: mission project will address the need of affordable housing which is desperately needed. as we all know our population is increasing, and having affordable housing now is key. mission rock project will support area median income which will support low to middle income households, include public servants such as nurses and teachers. mission rock will have units for transitional age youth, and i'd like to share with the last 30 seconds i have here how important transitional age youth is because i used to live in a group home. ward of court of san francisco. i did

an amazing gift that they may not know today, but years later when they can claim to be native san franciscans, when they can claim that they grew up on our parks and playgrounds, and they can claim to be the new generation of san francisco leaders, they can claim this. so thank you for being here on this amazing night in san francisco, and again, thank you to the entire park and rec department for all of do all the time. thanks, everybody. >> i am now honor today bring up guillermo rodriguez of the state department for public land. they have worked with us to build parks in some of our most needy and challenging communities, and we are the park system we are because of them, and we are so proud to have worked with tpl on this amazing project. guillermo rodriguez. >> thank you, phil, really appreciate that. the trust for land has a simple mission: land for people, and what that means is not out projecting the sierras, it doesn't just mean growing yosemite park, it means growing cities. the projects in the trust for project land it s in the bayvi, it's in the tenderloin, it's here. we have a go

you know, but i would like to make sure that san franciscans benefit from this. i just met two people the other day that are homeless that once lived in my neighbourhood and used to and they've been there forever. i don't know how we do that. but i would really, really push us to do that. and to work with our partners. and then who could no longer afford a place and are now finding themselves in the street. i think we owe it to them as san franciscans to make sure that they have priority when it comes to doing that. to being able to be in these units. that would be my ask. >> thank you. we'll talk about that as we get into really dig into planning on this project and see how that can work with the folks at the department -- >> i like the project. and i like the fact that you're in mission bay. it's not just for the rich. you know? that place should be for everybody. i appreciate this work being done in mission bay. young, i hope that we can really get some good folks in these units. >> ok. thank you. >> thank you, commissioner bustos. commissioner rosales? >> yes

san franciscans came out in droves to hear from the people that want to be their next mayor.five of thewed up to this open forum and were all well-received. ahimsa sumchai/supports mark leno for mayori think we should all be very very proud of all these candidates.nick panagopoulos/san franciscoone of the things that stood out to me is the high quality of all the candidates on the stage tonight.supervisors london breed and jane kim, state senator mark leno, former board of supervisor angela alioto.. and community activist amy farah weiss. they focused mostly on the issues of homelessness and affordable housing.jane kim/mayoral candidate:60-percent of all san franciscans are eligible for affordable housing under federal hud guidelines that's how expensive our city has become.london breed/mayoral candidatewe gotta get creative and find sites that are underutilitzed like i did with mcdonalds at stanyan and haight we are going to build 120-160 affordable units that are both low and middle income angela alioto/mayoral candidate you don't put someone in a place for six months then put them ba

want childcare and housing and everybody here unanimously supports building more housing for san franciscans. i think there's fault on every side in terms of communication and outreach. i will say the business community has a lot to say in how this is responded to in some ways and if they're going to be the ones paying the tax, i think it's worthwhile to listen to what they have to say in terms of what their membership is in need of and what they're ready to either support or not support particularly when we have these dire needs and these measures are so vulnerable to opposition campaigns. so with that being said, i'm going to put my head down again and make sure i'm not missing anybody and make a motion or request a motion to submit this charter amement for inclusion on the june ballot. can i do that without objection? -- >> the clerk: the appropriation motion is just to file the hearing. >> great. can we file this item? without objection? great. thank you. can you please call item 2. >> a hearing to consider the proposed initiative ordinance for the june 2018 election ♪ ♪ing the business

much like what she was saying, i was a former participant here, i am a native san franciscan and worked for the beacon program. i am here and proud of it. i did receive my diploma, but i am still here. now, i never would have thought i would return to this place or be back in the positions -- the opportunities that i was given. while working for the beacon, i climbed the ladder. i started off as support and ended as site coordinator. and it was a wonderful opportunity. the beacon has given me so many opportunities and i want to give them thanks for where i am in my life. i grew into the young man i am today. and james denman middle school,ive to give them credit. it's wonderful to hear they opened up the school during the weekend, because as a young person, i used to jump the fence to play basketball here with siblings and by myself. thank you, i appreciate that. no students have to jump over the fences anymore. growing up here in san francisco, it's not always the easiest place to grow up. especially, you know, when you're growing up with a struggling family, struggling mother here to

ballpark and really being a team that is for san francisco by ensuring that we are building for san franciscans and that will contribute tremendously to the city. i also want to recognize that 2.5 years later, local 2 united here, united educators of san francisco, the community council housing organizations, toddco, former mayor art agnos, our former democratic chair, john burton, there were so many people who are engaged in this process to get to the project that is before us today. i wish we could have had this project come to us sooner, but there are always so many things involved in something this complex and big, so i'm really just happy that we're here today. this is really, as far as i know, the largest, i would call surplus property -- public surplus property that we have here available in san francisco, about 28 acres. and you know for me, it was incredible important that the city as a partner to this project because it was built on public land that we ensure that this was a project that meets the needs of our city, whether it was the eight acres of open spaces and parks to again the

part of it is trying to serve as many san franciscans as possible. to keep them here. if we want to reach beyond that, for instance, then we need to ask for more money. so it is a matter of priority where we're trying to help people that's actually living here than possibly moving out. >> ok. got it. so we have precedent for legislation that accommodates displaced communities which are overwhelmingly are community of colour, low-income residents, people with challenging immigration status and with the neighbourhood programme, i was wondering if the programme -- does this particular programme that you are proposing do anything for the displacement of families at all? you said no, but i was wondering if there is room for it. >> there's some flexibility. it's not built into the legislation. but a few things. i'm glad you brought it up. >> ok. >> i mean, i'm so immersed in this sometimes i take it for granted that everybody knows this. but let's make sure the public knows that the workforce itself is 90% of people of colour and women and they're the poorest paid. and many

it's one of those days when i'm really proud to be a san franciscan. so, seeing the very nice write-up in the chronicle this morning really puts this day off to a very good start so i want to say thank you to the commissioners and to the department of public health and a huge fan of this department in large part for being willing to take these kinds of action, whether it is around syringe access or supervising services. [inaudible] worked on all the bills at the state level to authorize injection programmes usually with the san francisco aids foundation and we're very proud of create ago legal framework for that. we're also now working on creating a legal framework for supervised injection services from the state level with eb-186. but i'm so glad that san francisco is willing to move forward in the meantime. i know that you have legally now a system with the city attorney which i read with some interest. i appreciate their use of access in the needle exchange programmes to make an analogy. i think it's a very daily bread food -- analogy which is now a

as jackson, mississippi, and i'm sure many times san franciscans don't compare themselves to folks in jackson, mississippi. but once again, the data should inform how we engage equitable solutions to this problem, data done by the ucla study, has revealed. in rochester, minnesota, the board of supervisors is gathering data on the impacts of incarceration on the families left behind by assigning health workers to the families and children of the incarcerated parents. we know who's going off to do time. why don't we give counseling to the families and children of the incarcerated parents. we all know -- nadine burke's book coming out this week, about trauma and how incarcerated parents can bring trauma. in kansas, officials are examining a 20-year difference in the life expectancy for neighborhoods that are only two miles apart. two miles apart, 20-year difference between 63 and 83 in those neighborhoods. yet data, yet again. we have commissioner carter here that will discuss what is happening in ramsey county as a supervisor. there they're called commissioners. we know that equity will

as san franciscans we have a tremendous task to address the transportation issue and we want to emphasize that chariot is going to be part of the solution. we're going to prioritize complimenting not competing with public transit. we're creating service and routes that are going to feed into the bart and muni system. we're going to serve our communities of concern. and you know, we're going to continue to train and grow as skilled labor workforce as proud partners with the family, the teamsters. i want to emphasize, we want to work with the city. we will continue to be and be part of the solution. >> next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. first of all, i want to thank the board and my job for call meg short notice, they said, kendra, we need you. i couldn't wait to come. it's me again. i spoke back in october. i do want to say that i am so proud that i will be with chariot one year next month. i have come a long ways and i'm happy. newly engaged to earl, so we both have grown. it's a lot going on with the job. there is consistent drug testing, there is consistent regarding our scores an

to align with the mission of the department of the environment which enhances the life of all san franciscans. thank you. >> trillin asset management. >> good evening, commissioners. good evening for having the discussion tonight. i wanted to address the fiduciary duty and the implications of fossil fuel divestment. i'm a charter financial analyst, charter holder and partner at trillin assess management. we have offices in san francisco and manage $2.5 billion. in my day to day job i'm acutely aware of the challenges of portfolios that meet the fiduciary standard. at the heart is the question of investment returns. to be more precise, can a reasonable person expect a divested portfolio to perform similar or better than a non-divested portfolio if the answer is question the feud you'rery standard is fiduciary standard is met. we can analyze the historical record and second thing is model on a forward-looking basis at the market behavior going forward. i'll touch on both angles. looking backwards there's been performance that's been poor but there's a group another investment group did a 25-yea

we encourage san franciscans to get the flu shot and take other steps.have flu shots being given at the immune clinics, project homeless, and san franciscans can obtain flu shots at their doctors offices, primary care and pharmacies on a walk-in basis for a fee. in monitoring the flu activity, we've looked at our emergency medical service call volumes that have fallen to the normal range for this time of year. we reached out to hospitals, and while they're fairly full, they're managing to keep up with demand so far. to date, no reported deaths from flu of people under 65. and we have information on our website regarding this. on issues regarding the federal government and health, i just wanted to -- we're closely monitoring three areas. one is the issue of the individual coverage mandate and the impact on those who will not have a mandate to have insurance and as well as the 340b savings cuts in 2019. and the children health insurance program. i hope to have some review of the three areas and impact and responses that we have for you in the coming meetin
