i think so where we are now and working with commissioner lerner has been doing a good deal of work with the city with us is really taking a look at this sort of triad between the building department, our historic preservation and our bureau street use and mapping when it comes to entrances, so those three entities most of the time are engaged when you have to do access improvements that are beyond maybe a portable ramp, so and sometimes it makes it very challenging for a business to be engaging with the three different entities so we started meeting so just to kind of outline for those that may not know that the building code has its building codes. historic preservation has its requirements so any business over 50 years old is deemed possibly historic so you just can't make any alterations to a front entrance. it may trigger review with the historic preservation and then of course if you're dealing with small spaces there maybe some to try to navigate doing the fully accessible entrance may need to consider some sidewalk encroachment but our bureau of street use and mapping they're mandating to ensure

city. there is tremendous opportunity for further growth here. a could make usr city economically but also make a better city. i am thrilled to talk to you about some of the ways i want to work together. i want to take a moment to acknowledge some folks who have done a lot of great work and are part of this growing community and deepening of the tech community pot involvement with the city -- community's involvement with the city. i would like to shout out to the academy. give them a round of applause. [applause] extraordinary effort being made to pilot efforts in our schools around software engineering. it is great to have young people from these schools here to connect with this industry and deepen their opportunities. they of course will be the leaders of the tech industry in the future. i know you had the chairman of the sec here earlier, tom wheeler, who i think has been extraordinary things to protect the freedom of the internet. i give him a lot of credit for standing up for open access. i want to thank the members of my team. we are very proud of the tea

use development project. when the port worked hch we worked on it for many years in the late 80's and early 90's. it is a mixed use so this use fits into the cities plan for this area. there is definitely impacts that have to be mitigated or can't be dealt with, unavoidability impacts, that is always the situation. this is a great use for this location. urge you to approve the project, certify the eir and move forward. we are very lucky to have a organization like the warriors willing to come and invest in our city. thank you >> thank you >> i have mrs. susan von >> good afternoon commissioners. my name is susan von and i'm a current chair of the san francisco group of the sierra club. we will be submitting more detailed comnlt later and now i'll speak for myself. i'm very concerned that a piece of state legislation, ab 900 was extended purely for the reason just to get this project and apparently one in la through this fast track process so that there are fewer hearings maybe fl public and i'm very concerned about that. we don't know additionally in terms of the green house gas emissions. my understanding is that the project sponsor intend to pu

still have not been given anything to indicate there are just really a need to just focus on the plan that the city is bringing before us. the plan to just build a jail. as far as i'm concerned it's not sufficient. i think that i know there's been time invested. i know there's been money invested, but just because the been time and money invested, doesn't mean we have to move forward. ultimately, we have to make sure that we are thinking about the future, with thing about the actual population that we want to serve and how we can better serve them so that we can really work toward a zero recidivism rate. i know that one of the challenges that i'm experiencing is unfortunately, growing up in the city, a lot of my friends and family members were locked up good some of them are now getting out of jail looking for employment opportunity, and it not necessarily gotten a lot of support for educational opportunities, employment opportunities, while they were incarcerated. they don't want to go back to the life that they once had. when we were young. they want to work. they want to get -- be a productive member of society but w

a concept but i'm sure we can navigate those goals. the third item is the survey to reach our goals. it gives us the opportunity to identify city employees who might be interested in joining a group. the only way for us to measure success is to start with the baseline and the department has human resources i know shares some of the concerns to talk about confidentiality. i feel that our group can constructively address these concerns by making the survey completely volunteer and also anonymous and our office has offered to manage the survey to create a ll so people don't feel their answers are connected to their job security. by identifying employees who are interested in joining affinity group to figure out how to make this process better. the last recommendation would be to continue the work of the committee and set up a mechanism to report back to members of the board of supervisors to seek your guidance and support for the next steps. i feel that we have really started this tidal wave, this tsunami of community activity with that list of long-term goals. i would argue that continuing to work with the committee might be the
