in the center of the city we found practically no one at all. the city was a dead city. cause this was the second time we took seoul back from the communists, we were pretty much prepared for what we expected to find. you never get used to it though. >> all in all, the city was in awful shape, no water, no transportation, no electricity or power. as a matter of fact the chinese occupation forces took most of the overhead wire. kids are the ones who always suffer most. they never know what's going po. explain after they've seen their family get killed. seoul was in bad shape as far as food was concerned. there just wasn't any. the communist who confessed to be for the working people, live off the land, taking their food, not getting them medical treatment. everyone came back as soon as they could. a lot of them out of caves. our first job was to get water for civilians and troops. >> during occupation by the chinese, there were many parts of the city that could not be controlled. this cause a great deal of damage for the city. in order to get water where it is going, in ad

was and is becomes the only city. at the hem of all this, they created the los angeles organization -- olympic organization, a committee of one and 150 members that brainstormed innovative ideas that solved any unforeseen problems that occurred. the losod to corral angeles chamber of commerce to sponsor the games of the of the city of office was possibility and changed house it is presented for the olympics. this hubris was credited with the creation of the olympic sponsor program. the los angeles games where the first privately funded olympics closing out the games with $250 million in surplus money. atlanta is paying attention to this. in 1987, billy, payne approaches mayor andy young and says i think atlantic and mozilla fix. the lord told me this is god's work, we want to do this. initially he thought he was talking over young's head but what he didn't know is that andrew young have long had an affinity for the olympics. dentist had taken to see jesseeater owens beat the nazis in the hundred meter race. his father

the ground. as city administrate, unfortunately, the events of hurricane katrina happened and he was with the public utilities commission and traveled to new orleans and was with an activist who now the mayor of new orleans and started the life line council. out of that started the neighborhood empowerment network and made sure our city was resilient. when i talk about he didn't just say i have an idea, he rolled up his sleeves writing the standard operating procedures and going back to the department of public works he started the community team event and mohammad was working as the deputy director it's now part of our institution we take for granted it's government. it's his hard work and rolling up his sleeves with great deputies who had many of these events put in place. with that i think we should honor him with the impact award. i think gabe is going to figure that out. >> thank you, naoimi. naoimi and i since mid december have had the honor and i could say the privilege and pleasure of going to ev

making san francisco the first city in the country to require employers with city contracts to offer equal benefits to the domestic partners of their employees. supervisor sheehy recently declared support for the march 20, 2018, march for our lives, where commonsense gun reform and commended the students in san francisco and around the nation for leading a movement to demand commonsense gun laws and school safety measures. please help me welcome supervisor sheehy to the podium. [applause] >> thank you, chief. you know, the movement by the kids has really been inspiring. my 13-year-old daughter at her middle school, public middle school here, her whole class, whole school participated. to see this next generation take the baton and show leadership in fighting against the scourge of guns is something that i am so proud to see. what i also find very interesting is having watched the kids from florida, they're insistent on not being coopted by politicians like myself and insistent on driving the movement themselves for the nation. i'm particularly focussed on this day, on the issue of dom

there is some serious issues here in the city. t had the largest cheating scandal in the history of the united states. it is going to fail a lot of black children and it brings up conversation around the prison pipeline -- the school to prison pipeline. mercedes-benz just put its international headquarters north of the city, you have porsche that put its headquarters south of the city, you have amazon that has been talked about, all these different things going on. we have to pay attention to what this is. between 1990 and 2000, the city of atlanta grew by 22,000 people. 85% white. the suburbs grew by 2.1 million. 85% black. we begin to see the displacement of poor people who move into clayton county and we just saw toxic mayoralt elections in the history of the city where race was a major component. atlanta is known as the most inclusive city in the united states, but that would not let us be honest about what that was. future of our city rests on politicians that put people first. we have to look at policies that are inclusive. i

leadership is critical to the future of our city. critical to the future of the waterfront and proud to be here at this announcement today. our waterfront is one of the most iconic parts of san francisco. it always has been. subjects of pictures, it's why tourists come here. it's one of the most beautiful parts of our city. and holding up the waterfront is our seawall. these are the buildings, the waterfront, the restaurants, the small businesses, but it's been holding back the bay to make sure that our tunnels are not flooded. holding back the rising tides of our san francisco bay to make sure we can walk along the waterfront in front of us here today. it is critically important to san francisco today and to the future of our city. we need to do everything we can as a city to make sure it survives and it's strong for the next generation. this project is not cheap. i want to really thank elaine for her leadership and the entire port commission for making sure we plan for the future. it is a $5 billion project that we have to plan for.

it's the city's workhorse plant. as the supervisor said, it was built in the '50s but was really using 1940s technology. this is treating 80% of our waste watter in san francisco, working 24/7. there's not a square inch to move around the site. it's surrounded by residences and businesses to the east and cal tr caltrans to the west. each will have their own contractor and objectives and will be occupying a designated space at the plant. this plant will be operational. it will still have to serve the needs of the city, meeting its permit. needless to say, that's the importance of this project. that's where the management contract comes in. i want to show you a timeline of what those nine contracts look like if we look at a schedule. the red line represent where is we are today. the green bars show the construction durations. very shortly, in this very calendar year, the two biggest contracts will be starting up. we'll have nine contracts going on simultaneously. this next slide shows the locations at the plant that wil

and and finally the city leadership. a heart felt thank you to jane kim who authored the legislation and has taken a personal interest in this project from day one. huge thanks to board president london breed for her long time support of mission rock and keeping us on track during crucial moments. thank you to david chiu for spear heading the state legislation that allowed us to do the project. and finally, i want to acknowledge our friend, our late mayor ed lee. very bittersweet here without him. one of the project's biggest supporters, with us from day one. we are eternally grateful for his leadership and support and we miss him every day. thank you, mayor farrell for making this historic moment for mission rock come true. we're thrilled to move closer to the ground breaking and realizing the vision of all of us here for this project, a decade in the making and now the fun beginsment thank you so much. [applause] >> hello, everybody, my name is london breed, i'm president of the san francisco board of supervisors and i

the city issued permits. inconvenient truth about the housing crisis which is in reality the affordability crisis fueled by the behavior. if senator wiener was concerned about the housing crisis, he would proposed measures like vancouver introduced. on december 21, when the planning commission held a hearing on strategy, one person after another stood up to tell the commission about their concerns about upzoning of the mission. supervisor safai, what would you tell these people when they find out it's not just the mission street corridor, but [bell ringing] >> thank you very much. >> good afternoon, supervisors. my name is jim. i'm 43 -- i've been a resident of san francisco for 43 years. i see there is really quite a housing crisis here, but still i'm opposed to 827 for several reasons. here's one. the bill does nothing to curb the rampant speculation that is fueling the housing crisis. part of the problem here is that the large amount of real estate investment by overseas investors. seriously driving up the

and the city amendment number five. it's been amended five times, mostly for economics, in some instances to add money to the contract, and in other instances and notably in 2011 and 2012, to take money away from the contract when the city was in financial distress. so this is our first full round since 2007. it is being led by our very able employer relations manager, luanna preston who has many years in labor relations working with unions and public agencies. she could not be with us today so i am representing the whole team. we have been meeting with the p.o.a. and with the union's negotiating committee on a regular basis since october. the mediation and arbitration dates have been scheduled in the event that they are need and had will continue through the month of april and early may. as you state correctly, we do report to and take direction from the mayor. we've had very unusual circumstances in this round of negotiations where we've reported to three mayors, and i will say that because of the nature of labor relat

this is a partnership between the city and the giants. i want to take a moment to thank our community residents who are also here. who have worked on the sidelines of this. to ensure this is a neighborhood that they want to be a part of. i see corrin woods, the chair of mission woods advisory committee. sonny schwartz. alice rogers. part of the south beach rincon. bruce, also a member of the organization. and katy who is not here, chairs the organization as well. i talked a lot about the affordable housing, but this is a mixed use development project that is going to provide retail and small businesses, amenity, open space. the type of neighborhood that is inkredably excite -- incredibly exciting, providing amenities we need for the mission bay neighborhood. finally, i want to thank the city for all of your work. and the hard work begins now. we have to make sure we get the infrastructure in the ground so the thousands of units of the housing can get built. thank you, everyone, for making this a home run for san francisco. >> thank you to

and the absence of that in the city will impact a lot of companies. so if you want to have the flower market remain in the city, in transition, the flower market is going to move temporarily to an undisclosed location. the location that's being promoted is the piers down by the embarcadero and what i want to say is that if the entire flower market is forced to move there, there's a chance that many, if not most, will not come back to bring all those jobs back to downtown, and for us to preserve the flower market as it's been. so the piers at the embarcadero is a tourist area. it's a commercial area, it is not a light industrial area, and it does not have the infrastructure there, and the building in particular, the piers do not have the things to support our business. so you have dozens of semi truckloads, floral supplies, where are they going to get in the parking lot, if it's uploaded into the building, where are those trucks going to back in, and unload it, all those different issues. the flower market itself is a pawn in the high stakes gambling of

what the city is doing by supporting, it truly is what it means to protect. i am so deeply grateful to our supervisors and to mayor farrell and that the mayor office of housing for creating this wall and taking care of san franciscans. i'm very proud to be a san franciscan today, thank you. >> the next speaker is christine. >> hi, name an attorney at the center or gender and refugee studies. we're a member of the san francisco immigrant legal defense collaborative and we're support of the budget supplemental. we're committed to supporting due process rights and refugees who form a large part of the san francisco immigrant community. our role is a technical assistance organization, providing mentorship, training and developing resources such as practice advisories to attorneys working and representing these asylum-seekers facing deportation. through our work we know that immigrants who have become enforcement priorities under the current administration have claims to protection against deportation to central america, the middle east, africa, asia and other regi

i also my family and i live in the city. when i am not working, i am still on the bus on the train riding my bike, walking, driving in the city. i feel like i am somewhat emersed in the job even when i am not working. that is pretty much what i do. a big part of the job is developing a budget every two years. >> thanks for that. before we get to questions. let's start off with overview about the sfmta budget and describe what it means for the city of san francisco. >> happy to do that. i have slides i will use to guide the conversation. it is a large agency. the budget can be a little bit complex. i am glad we only do it every two years. it is obviously an important part of what we do. the budget is what frames a lot of the activity we do over the course of the years. to start out with, just to give a sense of the scope and scale of the agency and rough numbers. $1.1 billion operating budget. that is the money we spend every year. $3.6 billion five year capital program. those are the investments that we are making over time t

it's my hope that on this day, the city and county of san francisco can celebrate the rich diversity and contributions of both indigenous and immigrant communities. we owe a great deal of gratitude to italian immigrants that have contributed to our city, landscape and culture and history and we need to tell them that. first, our beautiful city is named in honor of st. francis of assisi. his compassion for service led to them to act in times of extreme poverty and we reference him all the time. italian-americans have had a long presence here with the first arriving in the early 1800s. italian immigrants built strong traditions in fishing, winemaking, and ghirardelli started. and a college was founded, today 19 as the university of san francisco. in aftermath of the 1906 disaster, bank of italy set up a desk from two barrels and wooden plank to help provide financial resources. the network and institution expanded to what we know as bank of america. the city's reputation as a vibrant, world-renowned center is built on contributions by artists, singers, dancers, filmmakers and philanthro

yerba buena gardens is one of the city's great assets. there is also long-term capital needs and in a period of transition where management and revenue streams are uncertain. it was developed in conversation with current real estate and represents the outer bounds of expected needs. if other funding sources are discovered, this money can be shifted to other cultural facilities in the neighborhood. next, neighborhood cleaning, $50,000 a year. this was identified to us by the supervisors' office. we know that neighborhood streets are also besmirched and can be dangerous. and betsy carmichael services. $270,000 a year. it's the only public school south of market, where 100% of the students received free or reduced lunch and 25% self-identify as homeless. it would supplement mental health services and summer program to enable year-round care. the next topic is ensuring the feasibility of rental housing. as we discussed and commissioner richards brought up again, we're very supportive -- about the cost of construction going up. we're supportive

then we have the upper city which is historic santa. nd thirdly we have the heels of these three parts of town are connected by two cable cars which the tourists and the people of bergen mo have been using ever since the late one nine hundred centuries that. they did that at. the heart of the upper city is the piazza vecchia with its medieval tory cica whose bells once called the citizens back inside the town before the gates were closed to keep. the. promises we see here to the left or from the one nine hundred century but they harmonize with the medieval bergamot and with the renaissance in their own. have all these different styles here close together in this small space that they'll be able that's what's so fascinating about this city and that's the only other provoke . the religious quarter around cathedral square is especially rich in history that includes the twelve century bacilli kind of be such a multi-year much shorter. than the fifteenth century call. only chapel. the walls of the basilica are draped was old tapestries and it

i think they need more help from the city for the groups. because personally, when one has difficult times, the agencies are there to help us. for my personal point of view, a year ago, my son had a stroke. and the institute is almost like a second home for my son. that has helped him a lot in his recovery. but now i have to leave my home. but the city doesn't really provide many resources for families of low-income like mine. because with a child that is two years old and another one that has disabilities, i have to live in a shelter. because the city doesn't provide enough funding to give us services to put us in the right path. first 5 is an agency that is very friendly and it helps families. but i think they also need more help from the city so they can continue helping us. because with families like mine, that are suffering a lot of difficulties, this the city is not doing much to help us. we would be thankful if the city became more attentive to that need. thank you very much. >> thank you. i'm go to call a couple of more names. we kno

needs to do to keep the city safe. [please stand by for captioner switch] the strategy statement of safety with respect in order to work with the people of the city and various entities that we have to work with. but we need to find better ways to measure and communicate. we have a process and crime strategy meetings. we have a process, but there are things that we need to do better in the processes. so that strategic initiative goes to some of the budget asks that we have already asked for in terms of finding better ways to improve the technology so we can measure better. it goes into the future and in terms of with the partners to improve that? that strategic initiative really speaks to our ability to respond not only rapidly but to be informed. that gets back to the data, to be informed and to do our job in an unbiassed and procedurally just way. we want to solve problems and not just put problems off and put a band-aid on them. and strengthening the department. there's been a lot of discuss n discussions about and a

so we know existing capacity of development in the city. the team did this, and i've thought of these numbers, total pipeline, 60,000 aof propprove units, 35,000 are in master plans, probably awaiting infrastructure. there's applications for 7200. i want to do this for the viewing public because a lot of people may not have heard this. the existing zoning housing capacity adu's, we have 16,450. existing 41,600, that to me is 10% of the parcel. gas station on a lot would be good example. density bonus, 9500. that may go away with sb-827, and then, we've got down here on the next page, and i'll come to the punch line here soon. 15,575 proposed new united through rezoning, pier 70 mission rock, central soma -- actually 5800 units, hopefully it's going to be 7500 units, 8,000, add it all up, it's 145,000 and change. it's a lot of units existing capacity. so i'm not subscribing to the notion that oh, my god, we are just busted at the seams. we have to add more capacity. we have a lot of capacity. we're just not realizing it. and i think whatever

the various strictly segregated parts of the city are linked by a great many steps. hat's known as commodore rock depicts a bird's head with a beat the two rocks behind it represent the wings the gentle below the big could have been used to carry the blood of sacrificial animals to the incas the condo was a symbol of freedom of the air the temple of the sun is a masterpiece of architecture and seems set into the rock like a condo's nest from the semicircular tower the priests could make astronomical observations calculate the solstice or determine the precise position of the sun which played a vital role in religious ceremonies sum and moon were at the center of all the incas sacred rites. the semicircular wall surrounds addressed block of granite which resembles an altar and was presumably used for sacrifices at the center of matthew picchu lies the palace the political heart of the city the beauty and precision of the stone walls show that the priests and nobility ruled here today we know that the blocks were shaped with bronze and stone tools and then ground agains

and twenty sixteen the governor in moscow appointed the administrator of the city. group or the trash disposal is being highly politicized by a certain group remember it was the one that invited you here today i presume. their goal is to negatively influence people's attitudes towards power we can't allow that. and we want to log on to renewables. days later thousands of residents gathered to protest the landfill expansion in colombia to meet she was one of the speakers. whatever several years ago oh are you optimistic all decisions are decided for us in moscow. the course of our problems in colombia is that they won't listen to us. imagine that you're sitting at home the neighbor brings you his trash and you can't say no when you were there was that yeah it appears that the minute you have to complain right that we don't agree with our plans here are the email addresses that the city council administered city through and that is subsurface a good artist so. i snap mine if i don't mind this piece of paper has the most important information that you can write to all t

the microphone? >> better? great. i'm megan wier, i co-chair our city vision zero efforts and i'm the lead on the work for data and evaluation. thank you. vision zero is the city's commitment to safer streets, eliminating traffic dust and eliminating severe injuries. 2017 was our lowest year for traffic deaths in our recorded history of over 100 years, but we know we have a lot more work to do and that's why i'm here today. and core principles of vision zero is preventing severe and fatal injuries, saving lives and addressing equity, ensuring that vision zero benefits all people. we're working to create safe streets, safe people and vehicles and fundamental to vision zero is addressing speed which because there is a leading predictor of whether someone survives a traffic crash. we work to define what inequities and severe and fatal injuries mean, injury outcomes that result from unfair differences in social, economic and political conditions. and people with disabilities are among the communities that we're addressing for particular risk of experiencing

and we also have partnered with the city on the homelessness issue. we provided shelter at pier 80 a couple of years ago. but we also were able to move into business opportunity when it emerged. clear encampments in a humane way, and opened a navigation sent cher opened in may of 2017 -- the center which opened in may of 2017 and 64 formerly homeless people are now sheltered in the navigation center. in the area of resilience this, value here is to lead the city's nefrt addressing threats from the earthquake and -- the city's effort through the seawall and other port property through earthquakes and other damage. i don't think i can overstate the level of efforts and results we have had in this area of our plan. we've had really incredible results bringing the city together, understanding the risk. we completed the vulnerability study and have the executive steering committee up and running. we have our consultant teams up and running and achieve the federal interest determination from the army corps of engineers which is key to the project's long-ter

the city is fedoten up. i know you don't want to discuss the shuttle program, but it's ironic you're suggesting environmental impact, because you've clearly not applied those same standards to the shuttle program. we have these 61 buses belching into our windows in the morning. i'm vehemently against anything that doesn't serve the people and that's all the public has been seeing. so people are on edge and you have to understand the congestion. and there is no recourse. which is why again, you're getting a lot of e-mails and photos because they're not writing citations, no one is policing this and no one gives a hoot about the people, what it's doing to our health and peace of mind in our communities and that's what needs to be addressed and some other situation put into place. thank you very much. >> thank you. any more public comment on this item? seeing none, public comment is closed. this also was a presentation and discussion item only. >> if i may just address these last comments. i want to make sure it

one that rain line has shifted a little bit closer to the city. rain through much of south jersey but we also have some pretty intense snow bands forming as well. so to the north and west you don't have a whole lot right now in norristown malvern downingtown a few flurries in coatesville and chadds ford but along i-95, along the schuylkill you're getting kind of that light snow right now. look as we go further to the south and that's where you see the brighter areas. you see the difference as we look at this picture? you're seeing all of the lavender right here and that's a good band of snow. that's why in evesham township we were showing you that shot and it's accumulated on the grass on the park benches there. that's woodstown glassboro berlin not quite in cherry hill but in hammonton and then you have that rain-snow line which is pushing a little closer to the city as the morning progresses but this is really just the beginning of it. the area of low pressure just starting to take shape. maybe 50 top 70 miles off the coastline right now. that's

the city puts a fee on air travel for city employees. that money goes into a fund we call the carbon fund and is used to loosely offset the emissions of the air travel. it has gone into all sorts of projects since 2009 when we started distributing the money with this amount of money that shaun will be talking about, we'll hit the $1 million mark in community programming. and like our work with tndc, our focus on the carbon fund is also making sure that all san franciscans benefit from these programs. there is a very big focus on resiliency, on community benefit, on equity, when our team headed by shaun distributes this money and partners. i'm excited about this particular one, it's important and far reaching project she'll describe to you. >> commissioner wald: thank you. good evening. >> so this grant we want to award $120,000 to california interfaith power and light to do work with at least 10 organizations, faith based organizations in san francisco. very deep environmental work. first from an operational perspective, so connecting the

the event happens. there is a recovery commission in mexico city. e know there was a recovery framework begun without santa rosa's initiative. we know if we don't have the framework in place, there is potential other people will step in and do the work and we want to make sure we're able to establish the priorities. that work is going on. and we've had two meets with a number of different departments and i'm happy to engage with any of you if you would like to participate. you can see that the slide here shows the federal framework and how you have short-term, the response is short-term, but the recovery is with the longer tail that picks up toward the end. and that's again, an issue that is going to be discussed at the epicenter. we talked about it last time. it's something that has been identified in the public safety element. it's something we really want to get done in the next year. finally, the last thing i'll mention is that we did on the community building side, a program that we had with the neighborfest, there are 32 different neighborfests

died there are still dead bodies lying around the city the smell of the dead is still a. threat that. after leaving the school and driving through the neighborhood you realize that it's an oasis among the rubble bombed out houses lined the streets of . mosul tastes. it's such an uplifting story to see this school as we said they were amid the rubble tell us more about the ngo that was responsible for this reconstruction so what's the. charity group made up of iraqi young iraqi volunteers are they really i mean the group itself is very diverse and it's a make up cut through all kinds of all of the ethnicities insects of iraq of course iraq is a very you know has problems with sex and religion so to have this group working together across these lines is quite significant of course they have disagreements about this but they're very very i would say very open about it i met them in march of twenty seventeen about thirty kilometers outside of the city of mosul right when the battle was for the western part was getting. to sort of the intense level that then led to the city to

it has truly been an honor for us to work with barbara, to work with the city, the county, and to continue on our quest here at st. mary's to impact and change health care in this city in a way that allows us to serve the most needy and the most vulnerable. as has been said, all of you know, mental illness is one of the most vexing, complicated and critical challenges, not just facing us here, but facing our nation. but we, together, here are doing something about it. i will never forget the call, because i got so many of those calls, from the late mayor ed lee. and when he calls, you take his call. and he said, lloyd, and i said yes and he said i need your help. when he says that, it's not just i want to have a consultation with you. but he explained what he wanted to do and he said, i need partners and you have been there before, and i need you to step up now. so this collaboration is a significant health capability that through partnerships we are together about to present to this city. and i just want to recognize and thank the incredible work of the hospital council and the city's eme

the city of santa monica filed a lawsuit. d they've announced dumping these scooters in the northeast corner of the city direct 3 and 6 in the coming months. the legal fight in santa monica promptly settled and i think santa monica is in the beginning stages of addressing the harm that caused into it's sensible regulatory extreme. there may be value added by these motorized scooters but for that to manifest we must take into account some of the potential harms and permit conditions pertaining to where these privatized scooters may be placed around the city and used among other sensible conditions. ultimately, it would be great if we could be less reactive and set up a firewall to capture the emerging technologies and subject them to safety requirements before we start hearing the horror stories. in the meantime i look forward to have your support, colleagues, as we get a handle on the latest entrant into our emerging transportation sector. the rest i will submit. >> thank you supervisor. ronin? sheehy. madame president, rerefe

it's the final push into mosul, a city of over 1 it's the final push into mosul, a city of over1 millionso—called islamic state the city of mosul and the fears and imaginations of the world. today is the day the iraqi government is trying to take it back. but the golden division faced an enemy like no other. when is first took the city, the iraqi armyjust fled. when is first took the city, the iraqi army just fled. now when is first took the city, the iraqi armyjust fled. now they when is first took the city, the iraqi army just fled. now they are back. it's the first time that the iraqi army has entered mosul in more than two years. after nine months of grinding urban wa rfa re after nine months of grinding urban warfare through homes and city streets, these men would finally ca ptu re streets, these men would finally capture the ruined heart of the islamic state's to factor capital. —— de facto. if there is a memorial to this brutal conflict, then it is here, the world's largest cemetery and where most of those killed fighting the so—called islamic state are buried. it's a sprawling mo

we had no leverage because the city had -- our own city had already supported it. at least formal opposition could provide measures to improve the bill. i don't think the build could be amended to be acceptable. it's outlandishly broad and the basis is unsound. one size fits all it impacts california neighborhoods across the straight is impract cal -- i am impractical. i have a picture of a bus that says i'm your bus not your city planner. >> are there any other members who wish to speak and a didn't call your name, come on up. >> i'm here to support the resolution to oppose the bill. one thing we have not talked about is what's going to happen to the low income communities of color. there's talk about communities of color but there are no protections in place for us here and throughout the city and we haven't talked about the small businesses it's going to affect. the latino community will be coming out and expressing our feelings. we've not been invite to the table and you'll hear from us shortly. thank you. >> good afternoon, supervisors. contrary so the claims o

it's a relic of how the city was visioned as a segregated city. i'm here to ask for more housing in the central soma plan, either in the central soma area itself or in the still segregated neighborhoods that we have in the city. for example, glen park, which is right near a bart station or the st. francis wood area within walking distance of the west portal station. both are accessible. i also want to bring up the current job-housing gap in this area is an amazon hq2 worth of jobs. we don't see cities like pittsburgh who are competing for the amazon hq2 plan not coming up with ideas about how they're going to house all of those workers. i, as a resident of san francisco, feel nervous about my future tenure in the city and my possible displacement from where i live. i would also ask all of you planning commissioners who are deciding on the fate of this project, it seems like we take the idea that we have a lot of transit in this city for granted, and a lot of the people who will be commuting into central soma, if we don't have a nice job-housing dev
