supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: i have a question for the deputy city attorney. i'm wondering if there's any legal impediments doing this whether or not this is ground-breaking legislation and somebody can waive this in this manner? >> deputy city attorney, their work confident legally that this ordinance and this proposal is workable as to whether it's ground-breaking, i leave that to you and mayor to describe. the ordinance works as written. >> supervisor stefani: thank you. >> chair fewer: thank you very much. it is a shame that prop c did not pass with two thirds in majority. what was the percentage again? 61. that was so close. i like to make a motion to move this to the board with a positive recommendation. as amended. >> can we adopt the amendment first? >> chair fewer: i make a motion to adopt the amendment without objection. then make a motion to move it to the full board as amended a positive recommendation. thank you very much. please call item three.

. >> supervisor stefani: thank you chair fewer. along those lines in terms of these contracts going to the commission, the aging and adult services commission, are the commissioners aware of 9.118b? >> they are in general area. over the years, they were separate processes that we needed board approval and commission approval. one the changes that we're making to our contract documents, we prepare commission memo that summarizes it. we're including in our procurement section when a contract is required to go through board of supervisors. our executive director spoke to h.s.a. commission earlier last week regarding this. >> supervisor stefani: thank you. >> chair fewer: i think there's b.l.a. report. if we can hear that. that will be great. >> proposed resolution would approve the original contract with meals on wheels and the first three amendments to the contract. the contract is for three fiscal years from fiscal year 17-18 through 19-20 on page 22 of our report. we summarize the expenditures under the contract including the conti

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, chair mandelman. i want to start this hearing by telling you the genesis of why i called for this hearing. last year, i was on chestnut street in my district with my son, who at the time was 13 years old, and we saw an individual in distress. he was walking down the street with no pants, and looking drew garbage cans for food, and acting in a way that made me think that this person was in need for our help. so what i did was i called the non-emergency police number, and i waited. and they came out, and they made contact with this individual who complied. and as the police were deciding what to do, they came up to me, and they said well, you know, you called it in. do you -- do you want to make a citizen's arrest for indecent exposure or something like that? i said absolutely not. this person does not need to go to jail. that's exactly what we do not need to happen. so after a series of questions, the police determined that i believe this person was a danger to himself. i don't know if to others at thi

stefanie, you're watching this, what is your view?s that the party wants her to go but the big question is, how is she going to go? this very much depends on the next hours and days. it depends very much on what happens next in parliament, will she put out another vote ? i think the consensus is clearly she is going to be gone by the 22nd of may, but how this will all play out, from the inside... tim, from your view inside that petri dish, what do you think? her pledge was that she would go if the withdrawal agreement was passed, but if you are the prime minister and you basically announce to the world and your party that you're ready to go, you've not really got the credibility or the authority anymore, so the problem is, i think that events are leading to a general election. but the problem for the conservative party is, they do not want to go into that general election with theresa may as leader. there needs to be a contest to replace her, that contest takes time, and do the conservative party have time to have an election quickly

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: yes. thank you, chair mandelman. i think the questions from my colleagues clearly demonstrate that we're wanting to figure out how to do better, obviously. and i know that we have a presentation here that is going to, i think, expand upon some of the questions that we have. i'm really interested in looking at the presentation. i think there's information that we might have questions about, but i would really like to continue with the presentation and see -- i have all the departments here so that we could find out where we're -- like i said, where we can do better and what you need. i think there are some more slides here that are -- >> chair mandelman: is there a clarifying question on this particular slide? >> it's a whole series of questions. >> chair mandelman: okay. let's keep going. >> all right. >> so this involves a 5150 process. so this is scenario of alex, who lives on the streets in the mission neighborhood and there have been complaints from neighbors about his behavior. in this case, there is a call into

yes, supervisor stefanie. >> supervisor stefani: thank you, chair, fewer. i have a few questions. what happens if the tenant is not able to raise the funds -- i don't mean to be a pessimist or anything, but i want to find out what happens in that case. >> um... so the -- >> supervisor stefani: on item 7. >> on item 7. so the sailing center has performance milestones and if they fail to meet those milestones it could be considered a default but, of course, we'd sit down and assess their ability to move forward and try to work with them to meet those milestones. >> supervisor stefani: okay. is the approval required on item seven and 8? >> yes, both items need to go through becd for permitting. >> supervisor stefani: do you know when that happens? >> i believe that the sailing center is planning this summer -- yeah, as quickly as they can. and i believe that the treasure island enterprises is on that same timeframe. >> supervisor stefani: okay. i have now sat through two meetings on the alternate supervisor peskin. what if they direct the city to do something other than we have agree

supervisor stefani. >> supervisor stefani: thank you, district attorney gascon for being here today. i wanted to follow up on in terms of building effective cases. i've been a prosecutor myself. you do meet periodically with the police department to discuss how to build better cases and i'm wondering how often those discussions take place? >> so those are daily conversations. and then we have staff conversations, multiple times a month. so at different levels, we have anywhere from daily to multi-times a month. and then the higher staff, we get together once or twice a month. >> supervisor stefani: you said something about the lack of video, because we can't take the police officer's word alone, how much do you think surveillance video help as soon as >> when it -- helps? >> when we have video it makes our case strong. >> supervisor stefani: then the last thing i want to say, anecdotally, and this is what i hear going out into the community and talking about the public safety. the state of public safety in san francisco. i'm just going to make a statement in terms of, you know, havin

vice chair stefani? >> supervisor stefani: yes, thank you, chair mandelman. i would like to thank supervisor brown for including the amendments and would like to add my name as cosponsor. >> supervisor mandelman: great. and then we also need to take public comment on the item one more time. if there are any members of the public who would like to speak on it? please do come up. seeing none, we will close public comment on this item. i will make a motion to forward this to the full board with positive recommendation. seeing no objection, we'll pass that. fantastic. we have been joined by supervisor mar. good morning. mr. clerk, please call the next item. >> item number 2 is hearing to examine the number, frequency and locations of home burglaries. supervisor mar, this is your hearing. >> supervisor mar: thank you and thank you supervisor stefani for cosponsoring and allowing these important issues to be heard. during my campaign for supervisor last year, as i talked to my neighbors in the sunset district about priority issues, one of the top concerns that came

stefani aye. walton aye. there are 7 ayes. -- there are 8 ayes and two nos with supervisor mar and peskin in the dissent. >> president yee: this motion passes. so, thank you, moving now to consider the conditional use appeal. item 25, 26, 27. consideration of the appeal of the conditional use authorization involves analysis of whether the planning commission's determination to authorize the project was appropriate. this hearing is a quasi judicial to reverse the planning decision or to authorize conditional use with additional conditions, eight votes of the board are required. do we have a motion? supervisor peskin. -- i believe that the project is not necessarily or desirable or compatible with the surrounding community. and because it impacts on the neighborhood and park use, i've concluded that the size and shape of the building is inconsistent to the general welfare of people living and working in the area. and the mass of the building is not compatible with the scale of the surrounding district, especial

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, yes, i just wanted to thank you for calling the hearing and express sympathy for the stories we've heard. thank you for coming out. i too was burglarized over this past year, i was at home with my daughter upstairs. she's 9 years old. someone came into our home and ransacked my son's room and took a bunch of his things. we did not know it was happening at the time. learned afterwards, but it's frightening and i know it's frightening for the people who just spoke. the package theft situation is very real. i hear it all the time in district 2 and it's something we absolutely need to do something about. supervisor mar, thank you for calling this hearing. >> supervisor mar: thank you. why don't we move to the presentation from the police department. i wanted to invite captain tim to come and again, kind of provide an overview to the trends on these property crimes targeting our residents in our homes. and also talk about the arrest rates. >> good morning,

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, chair mandelman, and thank you, supervisor haney for bringing this resolution forward. thank you for everyone who came out and shared their personal stories. i want to thank everyone who is trying to help people recover from drug addiction and the disease that addiction is. i also want to acknowledge everybody who spoke. i think, you know, as a child of the 80's, growing up, and nancy reagan, just say no, and that was a viable solution. i remember thinking as a child, just say no, it was that easy. and then, you grow up, and you have life experiences, and you realize that life is not that black and white, and you meet individuals, you have your own stories, and you realize that addiction is a beast of a disease that hurts a lot of people. there's so much shame and stigma behind addiction that we must do everything in our society to erase. and it is something that i care so deeply about. it is something that i believe we need to put all our efforts int

stefani? did you have a comment. >> one way we're trying to address the health issue. we received $2 million per year grant from cdc recently as part of pilot project. we were funded to reach people who are experiencing homelessness and people who use and inject drugs. but to think about how our system can change to meet their needs. it's not always going outside and developing the health that you know about and other services outside. also how can we look at our primary care and behavioral health services to ensure the threshold is low. that funding will help us take a look at the needs. we were one of two cities in the nation to get that grant. >> supervisor stefani: i have a question for the deputy city attorney is there any way the resolution can be amended to add reporting requirement so we can have them report back to report what they are doing in improve return rate and to services so that people no longer need syringes. any way we can add a clause? i don't know if it's a yearly report. it's something we're thinking about all the time. >> yes. you can amend the

stefanie: i think they do.e tim ryan getting into the race because it will highlight the issues rural voters are facing. this democratic ticket is all about the ticket. it is not just the presidential nominee. it is about who that buys presidential candidate is. toid: finally, when it comes 2020, president trump made a lot of promises to those blue-collar workers. whether he has delivered a not, do they think he has delivered? is there a risk for them to say you promised me all that stuff, i did not get it. lanhee: i think he is able to communicate a message effectively. this is why the u.s. china negotiation is important. that is delivering on the promise that i did tariffs and he willon china, but back off when there's an economic effect that could damage his voters. obviously people will hold him accountable, but even if you look at his actions on the border, the same thing. he is looking to follow through and express yes to on that. david: many thanks to our panelists. stephanie james and lanhee chen. comin

supervisor stefani? >> supervisor stefani: thank you, chair mandelman. i want to thank supervisor brown for creating this. this is something that i saw as city clerk. it is a fact that we did not get away from and something we have to address. in a city with a wide income gulf, i think it would be unfair to exclude this group when buying every day basics. i did have some concerns with the legislation, and i want to thank supervisor brown for we are willingness to work with me, to address some of the amendments, the look back provision so we can revisit the need of the resolution, so we can take a look back and adjust as necessary in the future. also, adding the cap on the maximum amount of cash a business is required to accept in a single transaction is important. i felt that requiring a business to accept large sums of cash, say, for an expensive piece of jewelry or something could pose security risks and place an unfair burden. i think the limit of $5,000 does not place an undue burden on our businesses but considers the public. i want to make sure tha
