the san francisco forty-niners want to leave san francisco. they should be allowed to, of course. but for the board to sell out bayview hunters point just for the fact that they want to keep the name san francisco on the forty-niners it is not right to the bayview area, who could use a lift by keeping the forty- niners in san francisco, in that area. i have sent to all of you my approach to this protest, which would be all of next month. i believe officials are letting down the bayview hunters point. i say the san francisco 49ers are not leaving, because this racist deal between big corporations will fall apart. i am putting all of you on notice for the fact that you have my contact. i would appreciate it, if you read the material i gave you and understand racism should not stand, period. president chiu: thank you. next speaker. >> good afternoon. i am a member of americans for safe access. i am here presenting asset united, which is a new coalition of patience, dispensary owners, and concerned citizens. as a medical cannabis advocate, i am here to ask you to take action and defens

with my discussions with the niners, we have ongoing discussions about the legacy of san francisco. they obviously want the name san francisco forty-niners. that means there has to be a constant link with us. what does that economically mean? we are in those discussions as we speak. >> we have time for one more discussion. you were recognized, acquired rightly, as pioneers coming into office, as chinese american mayors in our regions of two biggest cities. what has that meant to your city? what benefits has a broad backs either of you can take the first crack at that. >> obviously, being the first chinese asian american mayor in san francisco is significant. as mayor quan knows, we have generations of his stories were we had the local laws that literally prevented our population from voting. it is significant for so many fronts that i think are all well spoken of already. having said that, i have been working in government for 22 years. i have seen what it takes for a mayor to be successful. i have supported for may years. i have run five different departments. for me it is good to not only celebrate this historic vote, but recogn

pointed their fingers at you and said that you were responsible, all of you, for the forty-niners leaving san francisco. i would like to say that, for the audience and other people that are watching, this board of supervisors had nothing at all to do with the 49ers leaving, going to santa clara. this was something that was decided back in the 90's. there was a dda for the bayview hunters point shipyard, and most people did not read it. and they passed on it. but there was a meeting being held right in this floor, with the board of supervisors and a young man whose father is the owner of the forty-niners. he was sitting right there. when it was pointed out to me where he was sitting, i went and sat next to him. i said to him, "sweetheart, here is the materials. these are the things that are of their of the hunters point shipyard. that is a superfund site, and the city is trying to tell you if it is a ground spill site. if i were you, knowing that that is a superfund site, you should not be going there, because the city has refused to request at least $6 billion to clean up the shipyard. the $18 million

san francisco wins better. we voted un to make san francisco a better and safer place. under your leadership, we have now lost the forty-niners. let's just hope that we don't lose the america's cup. supervisor kim: next speaker? >> thank you for your service, and thank you for the opportunity. i think your hard work shows that you recognize the urgency of this matter and the need to get it done and the surface amount -- the shortest amount of time possible. i will speak to the direct benefits of this campaign in the city. san francisco is to sailing like new york is to seeder. if you can do it here, you could do it anywhere. if we bring of this race successfully in san francisco, we will establish san francisco as the premier destination for sailboat racing on the planet. for the long-term effect, nowhih we hope and bring back, it will bring back more sailboat activities and races on our waters, and these are direct impacts we cannot possibly quantified today. i hope it will be in consideration and should move this matter along as soon as possible to give everyone the opportunity to use that certainty to go forward in their e

san francisco and want to come here. i would very much like to see forty-niners stay here. what that means, we will have to talk about it. i am not a big fan of massive public subsidies to sports teams. i think we should work hard to keep them here. >> we're almost out of time. are there any other issues or concerns we have not discussed? are there any other specific issues you plan to concentrate on throughout your turn? >> a couple that come to mind. i introduced in control legislation to make it easier for tenants displaced by fires or earthquakes or other disasters to find below market replacement meant -- rent while their apartments are being fixed. there are some aspects of our rent control laws that make it difficult to find those kinds of temporary accommodations at below market rent. i have been working with groups on legislation that introduced that will help there. i have also requested an economic impact study to be performed on the entertainment and nightlife industries. it is a very important economic and cultural sector in our city. we have never really taken

san francisco is, of course, famous for many things. there are cars, the golden gate bridge, alcatraz, the forty- niners. it is known as an incubator for innovation. more than 500 technology firms call this city home. a major reason for this is the welcome and support the city gives those who are willing to take big risks and think different. tonight, it is my honor to introduce a man who is a great friend to the technology -- technology committee, and the leader of this great city. please welcome the 43rd mayor of this great city, mr. ed lee. [applause] mayor lee: good evening. thank you for that introduction. welcome to the third tech awards in san francisco, the city of innovation. i want to welcome you here. i understand there are 20 awards, $100,000 each. i think there will be 21 awards. i slept in one nomination that you might recognize. i want to thank the hosts here, techcrunch. a little over a year ago, they invited me to their media center and announced me as the first non-politician office holder. i want to thank the founders and the founders fund, our partner, and new enterprise associates. t

san francisco translated into spending money. that was a good thing for our economy. in terms of the forty-ninersot convinced we need to spend money to keep them here. i have a strong suspicion of the supposed to deal in santa clara is a house of cards. we have a great program for them all set up with a new

san francisco is that mr. ellison already won the trophy, and it is here. we have it. what i am a bit confused about is we built a stadium for our giants. we are looking at the forty- niners. but there is no guarantee for them to be the winners, is there? mr. ellison has already brought home the cup. as it stands, we are in a position to defend that cup. in front of the whole world. we are not doing much about it, except saying the couple has run over. -- the cup hath runneth over. who is to say, bringing the sport here in a natural stadium -- who is to say america's cup may stay here another four years, eight years, 12 years? i would suggest your staff research some of the revenue streams that have happened in the city's that have actually benefited because the couple stayed in their city for more than one term. our team is not buying for position. our team is already placed to remain here for another eight years. don't you want to defend your homecoming team? that is what i would like to do. >> toni howard from and all steps studio. you are being asked to adopt port resolutions that promise nothing in terms of economic developments in 2013 to neighborhoods and small bus
