i am a physician here and i moved to san francisco to train and work at ucsf to work at this clinic, so i am a proud provider here and i am proud of the staff -- here we take care of patients living with hiv and at risk for hiv offering prep. i started a young african-american on prep who moved to san francisco and heifehadnever heard of it. he heard about it from his friends and sex partner. this is the power of how networks and friends and families and partners can influence individual's uptake of prep. i think campaigns are a great way to encourage this conversation and prep is more than taking a pill. it's a program and for this young man we were able to get him connected to primary care and get him his vaccinations and ensure he had other support he needed, access to housing and case math and some structural barriers that african-american and latino man are facing on a daily base. basis. the prep navigation was supported by the getting to zero program and our navigators communicate with this patient almost daily when he initiated prep in an effort to keep him on help. we have se

a drop of blood in, slide it into a small analysis machine about this size that they developed at ucsf -- they can tell you in 10 minutes whether or not you have been concussed. the valley of that to the private sector is untold. if you have been concussed in an automobile accident and they can check you while you are in the ambulance and know which hospital to take you to, it can be the difference between you living, you dying, or you living with a brain injury had you gone somewhere else you could have been substantially treated better. in the military side of things, combat -- being able to tell if these young people have been concussed will make a mess of differences in their lives. that is what you want your government to be doing. that is the type of result from tax dollars being spent at a national lab that you are like, that is what i paid my taxes for. david: let me ask you, one of your responsibilities to protect our national grid from interruption by cyber terrorists. how secure is our national grid right now? are you worried about any interruption by foreign enemies? an ove

our studies at ucsf have shown that every pregnant woman here in san francisco as across the united states have measurable levels of a number of these products in their bodies. we're concerned because of the exposures that occur during the developmental period prenatally can have adverse health effects that can result in early childhood and even into adulthood. ordinances like this, bans that have happened, have shown that taking them out of the marketplace, results in a reduction in people's bodies and it shows that the evidence may be helpful. thank you. >> supervisor tang: thank you very much. next speaker, please. >> hi. i'm dawn holiday. i went from for-profit events to non-profit. and non-profits i've been working for are really broke. i've been trying to help with the budgets and trying to get things done for them. and something like this having to have cups for over 100 people and providing cups for that, they don't have the money for it. they just don't. you're making it really hard to be poor in san francisco. they don't have money to pay a fine. they pick up the glass themselves

along with the african-american tobacco control council, ucsf, and every single supervisor, malia cohen introduced an ordinance that would end the sale of candy-flavored tobacco products, cigars, cigarettes, candy-flavored nicotine, things that lure our young people to a life of addiction, largely leading to heart and stroke. supervisor cohen, we're thankful for your readership. that ordinance passed. but r.j. reynolds and others gathered signatures to try to overturn the ordinance by forcing it to referendum. greatfully this past june 5 with the support of every single supervisor, nearly 100 community groups and the mayor, 68% of voters said, yes, to proposition e, ending the sale of candy-flavored tobacco. today on item 27, the board is expected to take action to declare the june 5 results. the landmark ordinance will take effect on july 20. please, supervisors, insist that our san francisco department of health immediately inform retailers that they must remove candy-flavored tobacco products. the whole nation is watching it see san francisco's swift implementation of this ordinance.

behavioral health service providers in 2016 and 2017 and awarded the contract to -- this contract to ucsfto provide various services. on page 14 of our report, you can see in table 2, we outline the sources and the uses of the contract and you can see that over the term of the contract that about $8.4 million of general fund dollars will be used for the contract in addition to federal and state support as well as interdepartmental work orders. we do recommend that the proposed resolution be amended to specify the approval is retroactive to july 1, 2018. and as the department stated we concur that the proposed resolution also should be amended to state that the contract is for four years. >> chair cohen: any questions or clarification needed? public comment. anyone to comment on item 5? public comment is closed. i make a motion to amend the contract to ensure that it's retroactive to july 1, 2018 and a motion to also amend the language to move from five years to four year. and we can take the amendments without objection. and also i'd like to approve and send this to the full board with a

our sculpture garden, raised with braille signs and the playground, built in construction with ucsf, specifically for children on the spectrum, were great hits with the families. we opened the zoo early so it would be quiet. we kept everything as quiet as possible, special sensor maps, etc. a great way to support families with barriers and other cultural institutions for them. we have some exciting births. we just gave birth to a young mandrel, there he is with his surrogate mother. his father is big joe, named after the infamous joe, and pandora mother. a threatened species. you may know it's the one with the colorful nose and the colorful back side as well. they are threatened due to the bush meat trade in africa. we also had twins, i'm a mother of twins, so i was excited about this. this is our snow leopards, still off exhibit. the snow leopard is an endangered big cat. the parents are jimmy g and dala, jimmy g is the name of the 49 quarterback and he came out on father's day to meet his namesake and cubs, and they will be off exhibit until they will be calm. she's a first time mo

and my nursing degree at ucsf, i went to school during the day and works during the evening. hometown creamery became a study location for me. during my 11 year old's daughter's recent science trip to the creamery, they shared their background with the kids. we learned they were people of color, were raised by a single parent and pursued a higher education despite all odds. they, too, have been working hard to bring their dreams to reality. i sat there with great pride. i was grateful to learn about a business we could identify with. having gentrification can make many minorities such as myself feel out of place and disconnected. the creamery has been a cultural hub with its unique san francisco vibe. as a woman of color with limited resores for many -- resources for many years i have kwk quite -- many challenges people of color face while over coming institutionalized barriers related to race. hearing the opposition's case and knowing what i know that the structural barriers that this business has over come, i cannot help but feel there is a strong implicit bias existing her

i think while the idea of putting ucsf has a research institution into mission bay was a great idea, unfortunately i'm going to be very critical, and i'm going to say, and i've said it before, it is turning into little more than a suburban office park. >> supervisor safai: right. >> commissioner moore: that is my biggest criticism. the only thing -- and i want to say something positive -- is adding the warriors stadium i think will give a heart to mission bay, and i think it will tie everything along the third street rail corridor together. that is my biggest hope, and then we can move together while we're moving into neighborhoods. that is the common thread. >> supervisor safai: that is a good point. we've had this debate more recently in the last year since i've been on the board, and a number of my colleagues have joined me in the conversation about expanding the opportunities for middle class housing and diversity of housing. and mididle class housing is oe of the hardest housing to finance. we have the tools to finance lower income housing. we lost one with the redevelopment age

for and guided investment of over $10 million of public realm improvements in the neighborhood from ucsf, including $5 million for renewed park. now i want to take a moment to recognize the tremendous amount of interagency effort it took to move this plan forward into several years of dedication. as staff, we we have other staff from m.t.a. and there's been a partnership of moving through forward through the community process and now implementation. some of our sister agencies are moving forward with improvements as well as underpass lighting and installation. and now i would like to take a moment to thank some people, individuals and groups that made it happen. our planning staff, robin abad, as well as other presenters and graphic designers, gary chan and adrienne hider. we had a fantastic group of consultants that were from the neighborhood, david fletcher and his team, fletcher studio. and the wonderful leadership and stout support from supervisor cohen. the korean benefit district, dogpatch neighborhood association has been some of the many groups that have put their back in this mo

that one of the advantages presumably of epic is that many of the users are acquainted with it at ucsf? has that been with systems or does that cause a conflict because we have a little bit different system? >> you know, i don't know. i haven't had any comments back about that, and the difference, with one exception. some folks have asked to have this uscf build installed, and of course we can't do that. we're going with best practice, and we're going with the content. so things that make it unique with how we're practicing, we build that. we don't change the entire system. >> so i guess we'll see as it goes along. in emergency room its of the coming reports -- in terms of the coming reports, we have, in the past, received a timeline, right, with different points for completion. i think commissioner guillermo has raised the potential of using a dashboard. i don't know which is the better way or way you wish to convert it, but i think as we get our reports it would be helpful to understand some of the areas that you're addressing in a fashion which -- >> so i can give you a dashboard wi

we also have more contributions from ucsf going to complete streets project. there is a portion of a stairway on the 22nd street alignment that will connect the potrero recreation center to the street grid in dogpatch. and we are also looking to feature primarily impact fees to soar we we might be able to start filling out the network of complete streets. >> sounds like your projects and financing sources are separate from rec and park. >> in some cases, the -- we are looking at the same funding source, so impact fees, of course, are ones that we would be -- we would be looking to, and there is a pot of funds specifically for open spaces and recreation in the eastern neighborhoods, which, you know, goes to many r.p.d.-led projects. >> right. and just my last comment. i think that we certainly try to engage in it very much actively ourselves here at the park, but the fact that you've engaged so much community input, i just want to commend you for checking in to making sure that everybody supports the plan and wants to see the plans happen. i think that's very i
