let's think about walgreen's. it's true that a lot of the residents of the neighborhood do shop there. people like me do a lot of shopping at walgreen's and particularly now that they are getting more competition from the dollar stories and cvs and foods go a little bit further away. the prices have come down a little bit. they are in business to make money and you can get one item that is really nicely priced and the other area is outrageously priced. it's not bloomingdales. it's one we'll feel comfortable to shop it. as far as the neighborhood, it's a very well-defined neighborhood with the planning coalition, poul street, market street and vanness. it's not obscurely defined neighborhood. i would complain about the cvs, it's across the street. not in the half market. i'm german. that's my german side. all of our neighborhood now ten percent is in district three. hopefully we can work together. i would say that you know i just went to a

we'll be offering many items that have never been seen at walgreen's before. i can't emphasize how unique this would be. we have one in new york, chicago and recently in los angeles. the hollywood area. we have what is called a beauty area. the operations from the store will be from 7:00-midnight. any questions? >> supervisor mark? >> i was going to mention that now that i recall i was at the hollywood wall green's it's a flagship store near chicken and waffles but it brings a lot more i think safety to that area as well, but i know -- i have seen one of your flagship stores. this is the fourth of wall green's? yes. >> we are going to have security on premises on both floors from opening until closing seven nights a week. i also have an additional security guard manning close circuiting tv. currently we have two closed circuit tell visions and two on poul street. they will have windows and open and unobstructed from floors to ceilings and will allow a lot of light. the concept is a gondola, a unit that is very well will it. i believe we'll provide a lot of ext

walgreen's obviously survives without selling tobacco. i'm pretty sure they are going to survive without selling liquor. now, if you are going to do it the other way, if you are going to let them sell liquor, then you shouldn't, you shouldn't prohibit them from selling tobacco. so if you are going to go ahead with this one then i would like to suggest and i'm sure walgreen's is not going to oppose it that you let them sell tobacco. so i say let's be consistent, let's not let politics, politics influence the decision today. so i say do it one way or the other, but consistent. and lastly i would like to thank this committee for holding this hearing because according to my recordkeeping, there has been far too many canceled committee hearings in city hall lately, so i would like to thank this committee for having this hearing because you are doing the people's work which is more than i can say for the committees that cancel it. i think they should dock the pay every time they get canceled. >> is there any other member of the public who would

i don't direct this my opposition towards walgreen's. i direct it towards the consumers in the area who buy the product and although sold responsibly to them, sometimes they behave badly or irresponsibly and what happens is our resources are drained in the city to try to cope with this. this is where i had to come to terms with this. i think we should move forward with the project. i applaud the supervisors for coming with the terms and my hats off for district 6 for the groundwork. thank you. >> thank you, next speaker please. >> overhead please. this is in your board packet. this is describing the license itself and the over concentration and handout you to have a president in 2007 to stop being an off sale liquor license from public convenience. my name is john noelt and i was part of that one too. you have a precedence with the three conditions that were needed it would not serve the public convenience of the city of san francisco, no. 1, no. 2 a high crime plot which is three times normal and no. 2 is 8 times norm al, abc license th

now, getting to the pictures of walgreens could i have the overhead? >> this is walgreens. and in this item right here, we have the person in front of it and we see the garage cans taking up the space in front of their location. and the above lories this is open space, we just lost open space. i don't know if you understand about open space, but we are never going to get that back and those are umbrellas and that is wait that restaurant above them was functioning with open space. and our neighborhood does not have as limited on open space. and then, here is another picture of walgreens, this shows them congregating in front of their property, it shows, again, another panhandling going on. and then, this picture shows their truck unloading taking over half of the sidewalk for pedestrians. this is a major corridor, this is powell street. you know? this is the tourist part of the city. and you are taking up all of this space. and then, here is another picture of walgreens. we have graffiti, on their property. right here and then you have another panhandler. and then you have a

we met with walgreen's and had several meetings with them and captain gart ee asked me to relate that he's in full support of this application and he's in favor. they were issued a liquor license back in 1959 and that liquor license was surrended in 2004. they have had a liquor license for many many years and we have not any significant problems with their liquor license when they had it back then. so that's all i have. thank you. >> thank you very much, officer. is there any other member of the public who would like to speak? seeing none, public comment is close. >> thank you, i would like to thank all of the members who spoke on walgreen's. let me address the issues around an allowing stores to sell alcohol. we decided in the city that drug stores should not sell tobacco. i'm open to a citywide policy that should also apply to liquor license. that being said we do not have that city policy and from my perspective it's important to treat our activity with drug stores consistently as i have said, from my perspective it's important to mitigate this, i asked colleagues to consider the d

today is our health care system strives to expand care and lower costs we believe walgreen's is even better positioned to help if you have been in some of our newly renovated stores hopefully you'll see that we're not the old drug store any more. we're trying to be and we believe we're being a leading health care provider in your communities and states across the country we have more than 8,000 stores. we're in all 50 states including puerto rico. we have 70,000 health care service providers that we believe are on the frontline of health care. includes more than 26,000 pharmacists whose time we're freing up to allow them to spend even more time providing services such as medication therapy management. we know if people take their medications, properly, we can avoid billions of dollars in medical related costs. we've also certified all of our pharmacists to be able to provide immunizations and vaccinations. we're now the second largest provider to the u.s. government. we have over 350 nurse practitioners who we are colocating in stores across the country and what we're trying to do is

it is now my leisure to introduce the ceo of walgreens. he has worked there since 1988, started as an -- a pharmacy intern. he is now president and ceo. he served on the board of directors since 2009. walgreens has demonstrated an incredible -- they have been an incredible leader, role model, in terms of outstanding hiring and support for people with his abilities. it started as a pilot program in one distribution center, their inclusion practices have not resulted in great increases in productivity and improvements in company culture. it practices have now been expanded to other distribution centers. i met greg a few months ago when i was invited by senator tom harkin and congressman pete sessions to a meeting they were hosting for business leaders up at a walgreens distribution center near hartford, connecticut. mr. watson was sharing at that meeting with other business leaders his view that hiring people with disabilities is not about charity, it is about what is doing what is best for the business. that is the message he brings to us t

unlike walgreens, yesto used a different approach when introduced it itself to target. >> when we firstith target, we went through a broker. and that broker adds a certain level of credibility to what you're doing. >> at that point yesto was better prepared. the company had already grown to satisfy increased demand. leaf her found differences among retailers. he learned that each vendor gets its own deal. they're never the same. >> the relationship that you have with your mom is different than what you have with your best friend and same thing here. >> it's important we have open lines of communications, that we understand what they're expecting from us and in turn that we understand or that they understand what we're expecting from them. >> even though a vendor may land a major deal, he says they must push to keep partnerships thriving and you always have to think about money. >> most people believe you get into 5,800 stores, multimillion-dollar orders all of a sudden you're made. you're done. unfortunately, in those first years you're putting all that money back? >> he believes small

with some help from a contact, yes to got a 30-minute pitch meeting at walgreens that turned into a few hours. >> we wanted that presentation to turn into a presentation that had no question at the end of it. the only question we wanted them to ask was when can we have it. >> answering questions wasn't. leffler said retailers also u want to know about a vendor's potenti potential. >> at the end of the day they're asking are you bringing incremental people to my store and how do you make sure they buy your product versus somebody else's. >> after afternoon online trial and shelf space they needed to ramp up production and fast. that was by far one of the trickiest things to do. >> when we first met with target, went through a broker, and that broker adds a certain level of credibility to what you're doing. >> at that point, yes to was better prepared. the kpep had already grown to satisfy increased demand. leffler found some differences among retailers. he learned that each vendor gets its own deal. they're never the same. >> the relationship that you have with your mom is different than

>> when walgreens posted back in march of 2012, they notified the community that they were going to have a liquor license at 135 powell. the reality is not just there but also 149 powell because they are taking over lories. the neighbors did not know that there was going to be a super store at the time of posting. we also question the proper posting of the notice. walgreens says in the packet that you have gotten from them that they are only going to be getting three percent of their sales will be coming from alcohol. well, do they really need three percent extra income from alcohol? so. there is just many concerns, they were not addressed in the community out reach meetings that took place long after the post this posting took place at on the window so the community did not know at the time that was going to happen at the site and it is time for the citizens to are heard and enough is enough as far as alcohol licenses. okay? thank you. >> thank you very much. >> is there any other member of the public who would like to speak? seeing none, public comment is closed. and let me just go bac
