supervisor tang, i will miss you. i have also, a profound respect for you and i think that's something that we all share. some of the things that i respect most about you is how easy you are to work with, you are a straight shooter, you are always accessible. you are so prepared. i always appreciate that you reached out to me when you had complicated legislation to sit down with me and walk me through it every single time. i don't know any other supervisor that does that. you take that proactive approach and you bring the documents that are so well organized and have, you know, bolded sections and make these really complicated land use matters understandable. and i just -- i felt like only someone that did that before would take the time to do that for her legislation. it's something that you taught me about how we can bring the legislative aide schools, looking at vallie and catherine, and translate them to becoming a supervisor. and you really pave the way for all of us who have made that transition. so i want to ap

share her parting remarks. >> supervisor tang: thank you very much. that was very difficult to sit through. i'll try to keep it short because i know we're supposed to have drinks in supervisor kim's office. don't want to keep us late. i think it's a wonderful moment that i stand here at my last board meeting actually feeling sad to leave, because i actually do enjoy my job. i know that many have probably thought that because i'm terminating my term early, and decided not to seek reelection, that i hate this job. that is very far from the truth. i actually really love what i do every single day. but i am very excited also about trying out new things in life, because i think life is too short and we need to challenge ourselves and grow in different ways. i started here, hired, not even counting internship, but hired in 2006. and so i think it's time for me to move on and to see what else is out there in this big world. of course, i'm going to start off by thanking my incredible staff. i normally don't even read talking points, but today i typed somethin

it's actually very specifically outlined and detailed in the original katey tang ordinance for vacant storefronts what these issues are. i believe we were having a discussion with supervisor fewer that brought up this use of the owner being responsible for this additional annual inspection was both kind of a carrot and a stick in order to give some incentive to get the property leased again and for rent because it means they're going to have to make sure those maintenance requirements in the ordinance are, in fact, checked by a licensed professional. and by putting that burden on the owner's self-then there's an additional cost involved, and we hope incentive to not keep the building vacant. i think the instances of somebody violating a license are fairly rare, but if we found anybody performing fraudulent type of behavior, we would report it, and they would of course risking their licenses. and i doubt a lot of engineers or architects are willing to go that way. meantime, the department is doing doing 160,000 inspections a year. we didn't want to burden already overly stretched resou
