. >> supervisor haney: colleagues, i ask that we adjourn today's meeting in honor of tess rosstein, tess rosstein was a self-described world traveler and a co-op founder and bicyclist. she formally worked at median. she graduated in 2012 from stanford with a degree in psychology and a focus on anthropology. she was known as a creative designer and an active community educator and volunteer. tess was deeply involved in her local community, advising and volunteering with bay area women against rape, race ford, a racial justice innovation system, and the digital public library of america. last friday around 8:30 a.m., tess was riding her bike to work along howard street as she did on most days, when she was tragically killed. she was just feet away from a protected bike lane. her friends and colleagues have responded with an outpouring of love and sorrow online. i think that i have received over 300 emails about tess over the last three days. and i wanted to take a moment to share some of their words. tess was courageously curious and open-hearted. and we feel lucky to have worked with her,

and what happened with tess rosstein, that should not happen. i live in a high-injury area. i live on geary avenue. i take my life in my hands even going to the laundromat. i do have a driver's license, but i never drive anymore. i just don't believe -- i believe that with, of course -- we have only 12 years left to curb the cycle of global warming, and i want to say anything that pisses off motorists is a good thing, anything that helps pedestrians is a good thing. anything that would help prevent these bicycle and pedestrian deaths is a good thing. this is also an equity and racial justice issue because district 6 is a very diverse area in terms of racial demographics, in terms of immigration status, in terms of trans and queer folks, in terms of income levels, in terms of a lot of things. and it just needs to stop. so we really need you to step it up and just put in some bleeping bike lanes. >> mitch duncan and philip buzzley. >> i'm not the next speaker, but can i just get in line? >> chairman: no. >> do you have a speaker card. mitch concord. >> chairman: no, sir, pleas
