the person that portion that study tour was supervisor scott wiener. i would like to welcome him to our states. [applause] >> i like what supervisor chiu said i will have to put you under anesthesia more often, i think. [laughter] thank you for allowing me to be here to give my perspective around entertainment. we all intuitively know the cultural benefit of not life on our city without entertaining and night life, it would be a completely different city. a lot of us might not like it as much. if you do not have that community building, that tool does not exist anymore. it is not just about that. it is about keeping this city diverse, and having young people that actually want to come here. i cannot tell you how many times i walk home up market street and see a line of young people waiting to get in to hear live music. even though i am an old fuddy- duddy now and i do not stay out as late as i used to, it is important to me to know that young people have things to do today. audrey asked the economic question of me almost immediately after taking office

september 14th, a number of us, specifically commissioners carmen chiu, christin a olague and scott wienerere on the regional transportation plan which was actually held at the county transportation authority's offices. we had a very interesting discussion. the discussion involved members of abag and other regional players in this effort. and the discussion focused on drug trends here in san francisco and the region. we talked about the scope of investment in transportation infrastructure, the investment that will be needed to accommodate the growth that is expected to happen here at the region and specifically here in the city. and we also discussed some of the challenges that are facing not only the city and county of san francisco, but the other jurisdictions as the region moves forward with its transportation plan. as you probably are aware in your agenda today, we will have later in the agenda a presentation about the san francisco transportation plan, which is actually the long-range vision for transportation investment by the authority here in the city and county of san francisco. t

when someone like david chiu or scott wiener prevents the friends from being accountable they are abusing the public that has lasted for over decades and costs millions of dollars and the damage to the democracy is more important and the lies more than the money. thank you. >> next speaker. >> i would like the over head to remain on the screen through the presentation until i remove my last slide. i would like to talk to you again about mayor lee. he started out his tenure with the "i won't run if i am appointed" and we know how that worked out, and i changed slide and grabbed the wrong one. he will attempt to over turn an election using a goldberg machine to do it. however we will ignore misconduct with pointed officials under his control. this say letter sent to the mayor and the ethnics commission with regard to jewel gomez and violated the sunshine ordinance and by the task force.
