00:13:55 COLLEAGUES, WE DO HAVE SOME AMENDMENTS.
00:13:56 I THINK THEY HAVE BEEN CIRCULATED TO ALL OF YOU JUST
00:14:00 AS A REMINDER THAT THIS LEGISLATION WOULD RAISE THE
00:14:03 CITY ATTORNEY'S DELEGATED SETTLEMENT AUTHORITY FROM
00:14:06 $25,000 WHERE IT HAS BEEN FOR THE LAST FOUR DECADES TO
00:14:09 $100,000. IT WOULD ALSO MODERNIZE OUR
00:14:10 CLAIMS PROCESS AND REORGANIZE PROVISIONS REGARDING
00:14:14 SETTLEMENTS. I DO WANT TO THANK CHAIR WALTON
00:14:18 AND VICE CHAIR CHERYL OF THE RULES COMMITTEE FOR CONSIDERING
00:14:19 THE LEGISLATION AND AND FORWARDING IT TO THE FULL BOARD
00:14:22 WITH A POSITIVE RECOMMENDATION .
00:14:25 THE AMENDMENTS THAT I'M INTRODUCING TODAY WERE FOUND BY
00:14:29 THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE IN REVIEWING THAT LEGISLATION
00:14:37 WHICH AS INTRODUCED AND PASSED OUT OF RULES MAY CHANGE TO THE
00:14:41 ADMIN CODE BUT DID NOT MAKE NECESSARY CHANGES TO THE
00:14:45 BUSINESS AND TAX REGULATION CODE AS WELL.
00:14:48 SO THE AMENDMENTS JUST TO RUN THROUGH LINE BY LINE ON PAGE
00:14:52 ONE LINE ONE WOULD ADD BUSINESS AND TAX REGULATIONS TO THE
00:14:56 TITLE ON PAGE ONE LINES THREE THROUGH 11 WOULD ADD BUSINESS
00:14:59 AND TAX REGULATIONS CODES LANGUAGE TO THE LONG TITLE ON

00:15:25 OF SECTION SECTION 6.15-1 PAGE 13 LINES 15 THROUGH 29 ADDING A
00:15:32 NEW SECTION THREE AMENDING BUSINESS AND TAX REGULATIONS

00:15:55 FROM SECTION TWO TO SECTION FOUR ON PAGE 15 LINE EIGHT
00:15:58 RENUMBERING THE EFFECTIVE DATE SECTION FROM SECTIONS THREE TO
00:16:01 SECTION FIVE THAT'S IT. >> I WANT TO THANK BRAD RUSSI
00:16:05 FROM THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND HIS TEAM FOR THEIR WORK ON
00:16:09 THE LEGISLATION. MAY SCULLY IN MY OFFICE AND I
00:16:12 WANT TO THANK CO-SPONSORS SUPERVISORS SAUTER WANG DORSEY,
00:16:16 MAHMOOD AND CHERYL. SO I'VE JUST DESCRIBED THE
00:16:19 AMENDMENTS AMENDMENTS THAT I WOULD LIKE TO MOVE COULD I HAVE
00:16:24 A SECOND SECONDED BY CHERYL THANK YOU.
00:16:27 >> AND SUPERVISOR MELGAR THANK YOU SO MUCH.
00:16:31 I WANTED TO SAY FIRST OF ALL THANK YOU TO THE COMMITTEE FOR
00:16:35 CONSIDERING THE LEGISLATION AND FOR DOING THE WORK ON THE
00:16:39 AMENDMENTS AND THANK YOU PRESIDENT RANDLEMAN I WILL
00:16:42 SUPPORT THE LEGISLATION. >> HOWEVER, I DO THINK THAT
00:16:47 THERE IS A FUNCTION OF HAVING THESE SETTLEMENTS COME TO THE
00:16:53 COMMITTEE AND THEN TO THE FULL BOARD THAT I DON'T WANT TO LOSE
00:16:57 AND THAT IS THERE ARE SOMETIMES PATTERNS THAT WE SEE IN TERMS
00:17:01 OF THE SETTLEMENTS FOR SEXUAL HARASSMENT FOR EXAMPLE, OR
00:17:06 AGAINST SPECIFIC CLASSES OF PEOPLE OR BECAUSE PEOPLE TRIP
00:17:07 ON SIDEWALKS AND YOU KNOW THERE THOSE YOU KNOW, SMALLER
00:17:11 SETTLEMENTS SOMETIMES ARE INDICATIVE THAT THERE ARE
00:17:14 SYSTEMS THAT WE NEED TO ADDRESS.
00:17:15 AND SO WHILE I'M NOT GOING TO HOLD THIS UP, I DO WANT TO SORT
00:17:20 OF SAY THAT THAT THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I THINK IS THE
00:17:22 FUNCTION OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS AND THAT, YOU KNOW,
00:17:26 I WILL BE WORKING WITH MY COLLEAGUES TO FIGURE OUT SOME
00:17:29 WAY TO STILL ADDRESSES BECAUSE I DO THINK IT'S IMPORTANT I SEE
00:17:33 MR. ROSSI WANTING TO SAY SOMETHING.
00:17:36 MR. DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY U.S. DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY PROUD
00:17:40 RUSTY GOOD AFTERNOON, SUPERVISORS.
00:17:42 FIRST I WANT TO THANK PRESIDENT MENDELSOHN FOR CARRYING THIS
00:17:44 LEGISLATION. IT IS IMPORTANT TO OUR OFFICE
00:17:46 AND I THINK FOR THE CITY TO MAKE THIS A PROCESS A LITTLE
00:17:51 MORE EFFICIENT. >> ONE OF THE ASPECTS OF THE
00:17:52 LEGISLATION WOULD REQUIRE MY OFFICE TO REPORT TO THE BOARD
00:17:56 AND THE MAYOR EVERY YEAR ON ALL THE SETTLEMENTS BETWEEN 25
00:18:01 AND 100 THE ONES THAT WOULD NO LONGER BE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL
00:18:02 TO THE BOARD SO IN THAT REPORT WOULD INDICATE THE DEPARTMENT
00:18:06 INVOLVED THE AMOUNT OF THE SETTLEMENT AND THE NATURE OF
00:18:09 THE ALLEGATIONS IN THE LAWSUIT .
00:18:12 SO THERE WILL STILL BE VISIBILITY INTO THESE ISSUES
00:18:14 FOR THE BOARD AND FOR THE PUBLIC.
00:18:18 ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR.
00:18:19 IF YOU CITY ATTORNEY. ALL RIGHT.

00:21:43 FRANCISCANS. SO MANY ECONOMIC STRESSORS
00:21:46 AFFECTING OUR LOCAL WORKFORCE AND THE PUBLIC MUST KNOW THAT
00:21:51 WE ARE MAKING GOOD ON OUR COMMITMENTS TODAY.
00:21:55 TODAY I AM INTRODUCING A RESOLUTION CALLING FOR A
00:21:59 PROGRESS CHECK ON THE STATUS OF WOMEN ON THE STATUS OF
00:22:02 IMPLEMENTATION OF EQUITY ORIENTED POLICY ACTION IN OUR
00:22:07 HOUSING ELEMENT. THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT ALREADY
00:22:11 HAS TO DO IT FOR THE STATE TO REGULATORS.
00:22:13 HOWEVER IT IS PRESENTED IN A HIGHLY TECHNICAL IN ASSESSABLE
00:22:17 FORMAT THAT PREVENTS MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC AND POLICYMAKERS
00:22:21 FROM EASILY MONITORING PROGRESS AND MILESTONES.
00:22:25 >> IF WE ARE TO SUCCESSFULLY REALIZE OUR CITY'S HOUSING
00:22:29 GOALS, WE NEED TO ACCOUNTABLE. WE NEED TO BE.
00:22:34 WE NEED THE ACCOUNTABILITY TRANSPARENCY AND TIMELY
00:22:38 EXECUTIONS OF THESE ADOPTED EQUITY POLICIES BY RESPONSIBLE
00:22:42 CITY AGENCIES. AND I LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR
00:22:46 CONSIDERATIONS AND I WANT TO ALSO THANK MY EARLY CO-SPONSORS
00:22:49 SUPERVISOR WALTON CHEN AND THEATER AND THE REST I
00:22:53 SUBMIT. >> THANK YOU.
00:22:54 THANK YOU SUPERVISOR CHEN. >> SUPERVISOR DORSEY.
00:22:57 THANK YOU MADAM CLERK. COLLEAGUES TODAY I'M CALLING
00:23:01 FOR A HEARING ON SAN FRANCISCO'S PREPAREDNESS FOR
00:23:02 WHAT COULD BE AN HISTORIC EL NINO STORM SEASON.
00:23:07 YESTERDAY GOVERNOR NEWSOM PROCLAIMED A STATEWIDE
00:23:09 EMERGENCY TO MOBILIZE RESOURCES AND TO HELP CALIFORNIA PREPARE
00:23:12 FOR WHAT FORECASTERS ARE WARNING COULD BE ONE OF THE
00:23:16 STRONGEST EL NINO EVENTS EVER RECORDED.
00:23:20 AND HERE IN SAN FRANCISCO WE HAVE GOOD REASON TO TAKE THAT
00:23:23 WARNING SERIOUSLY. DISTRICT SIX INCLUDES SOME OF
00:23:24 OUR WATERFRONTS THE LOWEST LYING AND MOST FLOOD EXPOSED
00:23:28 AREAS INCLUDING SOUTH BEACH AND THE EMBARCADERO.
00:23:31 WE'RE ALREADY SEEING TIDES 4 TO 6IN HIGHER THAN NORMAL AND EL
00:23:35 NINO IS EXPECTED TO RAISE THOSE TIDES BY AS MUCH AS A FOOT OR
00:23:38 MORE THIS WINTER. >> THAT COULD INCREASE THE
00:23:41 NUMBER OF KING AND ROYAL TIDES FROM SEVEN TO MORE THAN 30
00:23:44 BRINGING CONSIDERABLY MORE DAYS OF COASTAL FLOODING TO AREAS
00:23:48 LIKE THE EMBARCADERO NEAR PIER 14.
00:23:51 >> WE COULD ALSO SEE SOME OF THE HIGHEST TIDES ON RECORD
00:23:55 AROUND THANKSGIVING AND CHRISTMAS POTENTIALLY
00:23:56 FLOODING AREAS THAT HAVE HISTORICALLY BEEN SPARED.
00:23:58 AND WHEN YOU COMBINE THOSE ELEVATED TIDES WITH THE
00:24:02 INCREASED LIKELIHOOD OF ABOVE NORMAL RAINFALL, STRONG STORMS
00:24:06 AND WAVES EVEN ON THE BAY SIDE, THE RISKS TO OUR RESIDENTS,
00:24:07 BUSINESSES, INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SAFETY BECOME MUCH
00:24:11 MORE SIGNIFICANT. I KNOW THE PORT AND OTHER
00:24:15 DEPARTMENTS ARE ALREADY WORKING ON PREPAREDNESS EFFORTS TO KEEP
00:24:18 PEOPLE SAFE, TO REDUCE SHORELINE FLOODING AND TO
00:24:19 PROTECT INFRASTRUCTURE AND ENSURE THAT WE'RE READY TO
00:24:22 RESPOND. BUT THIS IS A CITY WIDE
00:24:25 CHALLENGE AND IT REQUIRES IT REQUIRES A COORDINATED CITYWIDE
00:24:27 RESPONSE. THROUGH THIS HEARING I WANT TO
00:24:30 UNDERSTAND WHAT OUR DEPARTMENTS ARE DOING NOW TO PREPARE HOW
00:24:33 WE'RE COORDINATING WITH STATE AND REGIONAL PARTNERS
00:24:35 AND WHETHER THERE ARE GAPS IN OUR INFRASTRUCTURE,
00:24:38 EMERGENCY RESPONSE CAPABILITIES OR RESOURCE IS THAT WE NEED TO
00:24:42 ADDRESS BEFORE THE STORMS ARRIVE.
00:24:43 THAT INCLUDES OUR STORMWATER SYSTEM FLOOD PRONE STREETS
00:24:46 AND NEIGHBORHOODS VULNERABLE POPULATIONS AND HOW WE'RE
00:24:50 COMMUNICATING WITH RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES ABOUT THE RISKS.
00:24:53 HAD THE TIME TO IDENTIFY THESE GAPS IS NOW NOT WHEN THE FIRST
00:24:58 MAJOR STORM IS BEARING DOWN ON SAN FRANCISCO.
00:25:01 SO I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM OUR DEPARTMENTS
00:25:03 AND WORKING TOGETHER TO MAKE SURE SAN FRANCISCO IS AS
00:25:05 PREPARED AS POSSIBLE FOR THE WINTER AHEAD.
00:25:07 AND I WANT TO THANK MY HEARING CO-SPONSORS BOARD PRESIDENT

00:59:43 ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. >> RIGHT IN THE WESTERN
00:59:47 TRADITION. PRINCIPAL LAURA SCHMIDT, AS YOU
00:59:52 MAY WELCOME TO THE STAGE ROSA PARKS.
00:59:54 >> YOU CAN COME DOWN. OKAY.
00:59:55 WELL, COME ON, EVERYBODY EVEN YOU SURE IT GOES WITHOUT SAYING
01:00:02 THAT 100 YEARS IS A REMARKABLE MILESTONE FOR ANY INSTITUTION.
01:00:06 BUT WHEN YOU LOOK AT THE HISTORY OF ROSA PARKS, YOU
01:00:10 REALIZE THAT IT IS MUCH MORE THAN A SCHOOL REACHING THIS
01:00:14 CENTENNIAL YEAR. >> MARK ROSA PARKS WAS ONE OF
01:00:17 THE FIRST SCHOOLS THAT I VISITED AFTER BECOMING
01:00:18 SUPERVISOR AND IT WAS THAT SENSE OF COMMUNITY DIVERSITY
01:00:21 AND FRIENDSHIP THAT WAS CLEAR FROM EVERY PARENT, TEACHER
01:00:25 AND KID. >> BUT I MEANT THAT MEANT AT
01:00:29 THE SCHOOL AND YOU CAN SEE IT IN EVERYTHING AT THE SCHOOL
01:00:33 DANCE FROM BACK TO SCHOOL BARBECUE AND LITERACY NIGHT TO
01:00:36 THE MAKERS FAIR TO SCIENCE NIGHT FIELD DAY, GARDEN
01:00:40 WORKDAYS AND SO MUCH MORE. >> FOR THOSE WHO DON'T KNOW,
01:00:44 THEY ALSO HAVE A CHICKEN COOP AND I HAVE FORGOTTEN ALL THE
01:00:45 CHICKENS NAMES BUT I THINK THE PRINCIPAL KNOWS ALL OF THEM BY
01:00:49 HEART AND I WAS I WAS JUST AT THE BACK TO SCHOOL BARBECUE A
01:00:55 COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO WHERE KIDS HAD MADE EVERYTHING FROM THE
01:00:57 COOKIES TO AMAZING JAPANESE HOT DOGS AND IT WAS AMAZING,
01:01:03 AMAZING, FAIR. BUT WE'RE HERE WITH
01:01:04 AND THINKING PRINCIPAL LAURA SCHMIDT AND GMA FOR JOINING US
01:01:08 HERE TODAY IS GIVE HER A ROUND OF APPLAUSE ALONGSIDE HER STAFF
01:01:10 SO BUT TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THE STAFF AND THE TEAM AND TO
01:01:23 UNDERSTAND ROSA PARKS, YOU HAVE TO UNDERSTAND ITS HISTORY.
01:01:27 >> THE SCHOOL OPENED IN 1927 AS THE RAFAEL WEYL SCHOOL AND OVER
01:01:33 THE PAST CENTURY HAS WITNESSED SOME OF THE MOST IMPORTANT BUT
01:01:36 ALSO PAINFUL CHAPTERS IN THE HISTORY OF THE FILLMORE
01:01:38 AND WESTERN ADDITION. >> THERE'S A FAMOUS SERIES
01:01:41 CAPTURED BY PHOTOGRAPHER DOROTHEA LANGE THAT DEPICTS
01:01:45 JAPANESE-AMERICAN STUDENTS AT THE SCHOOL IN 1942 SHORTLY
01:01:48 BEFORE MANY OF THOSE SAME CHILDREN WERE TAKEN FROM THEIR
01:01:52 HOMES AND INCARCERATED DURING WORLD WAR TWO LANGE'S
01:01:55 PHOTOGRAPHS TO PICK JAPANESE AMERICAN STUDENTS SAYING THE
01:01:59 PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE WRESTLING WITH THEIR FRIENDS, STUDENTS
01:02:03 JUST BEING STUDENTS IT'S HEARTBREAKING TO KNOW THAT JUST
01:02:06 DAYS LATER THESE SAME CHILDREN WERE PICKED UP IN BUSSES RIGHT
01:02:10 IN FRONT OF THE SCHOOL ON O'FARRELL STREET AND SENT TO
01:02:12 CAMPS ACROSS THE COUNTRY JUST SEVERAL YEARS LATER THE
01:02:15 FILLMORE BEGAN ENDURING THE VIOLENCE OF URBAN RENEWAL
01:02:19 AND AS MANY OF YOU KNOW THE DISPLACEMENT OF PRIMARILY BLACK
01:02:23 AND JAPANESE FAMILIES, BUSINESSES AND THIRD SPACES WAS
01:02:26 GROWING RAMPANT ENTIRE BLOCKS OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD WERE
01:02:30 TRANSFORMED AND OFTEN WITH PROMISES THAT THE FAMILIES
01:02:33 WOULD ONE DAY BE ABLE TO RETURN.
01:02:34 >> AND YET THROUGH ALL THESE INJUSTICES THIS SCHOOL STOOD
01:02:38 STRONG. IN 1995, THE RAPHAEL WHEELER
01:02:42 SCHOOL WAS RENAMED IN HONOR OF CIVIL RIGHTS LEADER ROSA PARKS
01:02:46 WITH ROSA PARKS HERSELF ATTENDING THE CEREMONY.
01:02:50 >> HER LEGACY WAS ABOUT DIGNITY ,EQUALITY AND THE COURAGE TO
01:02:53 STAND UP FOR WHAT IS RIGHT AND THOSE VALUES ARE DEEPLY
01:02:57 CONNECTED TO THE HISTORY OF THIS SCHOOL AND THIS
01:02:58 NEIGHBORHOOD. TODAY ROSA PARKS ELEMENTARY
01:03:01 SERVES NEARLY 400 STUDENTS WITH PROGRAMS INCLUDING STEAM.
01:03:04 THE JAPANESE BILINGUAL BICULTURAL PROGRAM
01:03:08 AND SPECIALIZED PROGRAMS FOR STUDENTS WITH DIFFERENT
01:03:11 LEARNING NEEDS. >> ITS WHOLE SCHOOL APPROACH
01:03:15 BRINGS STUDENTS FROM DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS AND PROGRAMS
01:03:16 TOGETHER TEACHING THEM NOT ONLY WHAT TO LEARN BUT HOW TO LIVE
01:03:19 TOGETHER. AND THAT IS WHY ROSA PARKS IS
01:03:22 MORE THAN A BUILDING OF GREAT HISTORY.
01:03:23 >> IT IS LIVING HISTORY AND FOR 100 YEARS THE SCHOOL HAS BEEN A
01:03:27 PART OF THE FABRIC OF THE WESTERN TRADITION.
01:03:30 >> GENERATIONS OF SAN FRANCISCANS HAVE WALKED THROUGH
01:03:33 ITS DOORS AND TODAY A NEW GENERATION IS CARRYING THAT
01:03:35 LEGACY FORWARD. SO ON BEHALF OF DISTRICT FIVE
01:03:38 AND THE SAN FRANCISCO BOARD OF SUPERVISORS, I WANT TO THANK
01:03:41 THE TEACHERS, THE STAFF, PARENTS, FAMILIES AND MOST
01:03:44 IMPORTANTLY THE STUDENTS WHO MAKE THIS SCHOOL WHAT IT IS.
01:03:46 >> I MEAN THE NEXT CENTURY BRING THE SAME COMMUNITY
01:03:48 COURAGE AND CURIOSITY AND FIGHT FOR JUSTICE THAT HAS CARRIED
01:03:53 YOU FOR THE LAST 100 YEARS AS WELL.
01:03:55 >> THE FLOOR IS YOURS. >> THANK YOU, SUPERVISOR MAHMUD
01:04:03 AND THANK YOU BOARD OF SUPERVISORS FOR THIS HONOR ON

01:04:10 LONG TIME TO EDUCATE STUDENTS AT RAFI RAFAEL EARLY EDUCATION
01:04:13 SCHOOL AND ROSA PARKS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
01:04:17 >> OUR SCHOOL IS A PUBLIC SCHOOL THAT YOU JUST CANNOT
01:04:18 LEAVE. I STARTED OUT AS A PARENT
01:04:21 AND NOW I'M THERE AS PRINCIPAL GENERATION OF FAMILIES HAVE
01:04:25 ATTENDED WE HAVE COLLEAGUES WHO HAD WORKED AT THE SAME SCHOOL
01:04:26 THEIR WHOLE CAREERS 15, 20, 25, 30 MORE YEARS.
01:04:32 >> AND WE HAVE COLLEAGUES WHO ATTENDED OUR SCHOOL AS STUDENTS
01:04:36 AND WE HAVE COLLEAGUES WHO HAVE TRUSTED THE STAFF AT THE SCHOOL
01:04:40 TO EDUCATE THEIR OWN CHILDREN. ALUMNI STILL COME THROUGH
01:04:44 IN MIDDLE AND HIGH SCHOOL HAPPY TO BE REMEMBERED PARENTS,
01:04:47 AUNTS, UNCLES, GRANDPARENTS TELL STORIES ABOUT HOW THIS WAS
01:04:51 THEIR SCHOOL WHERE THE OFFICE USED TO BE, WHO IS IN WHAT
01:04:52 PICTURE, WHO PAINTED WHICH MURAL AND WHERE THEY GOT YELLED
01:04:56 AT BY THEIR MOTHER. >> THE STORY OF RAFAEL WHEELER
01:04:59 EARLY EDUCATION SCHOOL AND ROSA PARKS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL TELLS
01:05:03 THE STORY OF SAN FRANCISCO. >> IN 100 YEARS THE SCHOOL HAS
01:05:07 PERSISTED THROUGH THE NEIGHBORHOOD CHANGING THROUGH
01:05:09 JAPANESE INTERNMENT AND INCARCERATION AND AGAIN
01:05:10 THROUGH THE REDLINING AND DESTRUCTION OF THE HARLEM
01:05:13 OF THE WEST. THE FILLMORE A THRIVING
01:05:14 AFRICAN-AMERICAN NEIGHBORHOOD AND IN THE NAME OF PROGRESS THE
01:05:17 SCHOOL HAS ALWAYS SERVED THE CHILDREN OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD
01:05:21 WHOEVER THEY WERE AND IS CURRENTLY ONE OF THE MOST
01:05:25 DIVERSE SCHOOLS IN SAN FRANCISCO.
01:05:26 WE HAVE A THRIVING STEAM PROGRAM A 54 YEAR OLD JAPANESE
01:05:29 BILINGUAL BI CULTURAL PROGRAM, AUTISM FOCUSED SUPPORT
01:05:33 CLASSROOMS AND A PRESCHOOL FULL OF YOUNG CURIOUS LEARNERS.

01:05:38 CARDBOARD. WE CAN CHA-CHA SLIDE WE ALL
01:05:42 KNOW SOME JAPANESE WHETHER IT IS COUNTING IN COLORS OR WE CAN
01:05:45 GIVE AN ENTIRE SPEECH ANY HUNGER AT HOME OUR STUDENTS

01:05:50 MONGOLIAN, HINDI. WE EAT EVERYTHING WE LOVE TO

01:05:57 AND ALL OF YOU HAVE AN OPEN INVITATION TO COME AND SEE FOR
01:06:00 YOURSELVES. AS ROSA PARKS SAID, THERE IS NO
01:06:03 FUTURE WITHOUT EDUCATION FROM MY COLLEAGUES, STUDENTS

01:12:11 HISTORY IS DEEPLY INTERTWINED WITH THAT OF THE SAN FRANCISCO
01:12:12 FIRE DEPARTMENT AND THE COMMUNITIES IT SERVES.
01:12:16 I'D LIKE TO WELCOME THOSE MEMBERS TO THE PODIUM.
01:12:25 >> FOUNDED IN 1986 BY LATINO MEMBERS OF THE SAN FRANCISCO
01:12:29 FIRE DEPARTMENT, LOS MUERTOS DE SAN FRANCISCO REACHED A
01:12:30 SIGNIFICANT MILESTONE IN AUGUST 2026.
01:12:33 >> CELEBRATING 40 YEARS OF SERVICE ADVOCACY AND COMMUNITY
01:12:37 CONNECTION. FROM ITS EARLIEST DAYS, MOST
01:12:40 METROS UNDERSTOOD THAT SERVING SAN FRANCISCO MEANT MORE THAN
01:12:45 RESPONDING TO EMERGENCIES. >> IT MEANT HELP HELPING BUILD
01:12:49 A FIRE DEPARTMENT THAT REFLECTED THE DIVERSITY OF OUR
01:12:50 CITY CREATING OPPORTUNITIES FOR THE NEXT GENERATION OF
01:12:53 FIREFIGHTERS AND STRENGTHENING THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FIRST
01:12:57 RESPONDERS AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE.
01:12:58 >> LOS METROS HAVE WORKED TO EXPAND RECRUITMENT, RETENTION
01:13:01 AND PROMOTION OPPORTUNITIES FOR LATINO MEMBERS OF THE
01:13:05 DEPARTMENT WHILE ALSO SERVING THE BROADER COMMUNITY
01:13:08 PARTICULARLY SAN FRANCISCO'S SPANISH SPEAKING RESIDENTS.
01:13:11 >> ITS MEMBERS HAVE PROVIDED SPANISH LANGUAGE INTERVIEWS
01:13:15 AND TRANSLATION ASSISTANCE AND EMERGENCY SCENES HELPED
01:13:18 EDUCATE RESIDENTS ABOUT FIRE AND EARTHQUAKE SAFETY
01:13:20 AND PARTICIPATED IN COMMUNITY EVENTS THROUGHOUT THE CITY.
01:13:24 THEY HAVE ALSO SUPPORTED CAREER DAYS, RECRUITMENT PROGRAMS
01:13:28 AND FIRE SCIENCE EDUCATION GIVING YOUNG SAN FRANCISCANS
01:13:31 THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THEMSELVES IN THE UNIFORM
01:13:35 AND IMAGINE A CAREER IN PUBLIC SERVICE.
01:13:36 >> THAT COMMITMENT TO SERVE IS EXTENDS BEYOND SAN FRANCISCO.
01:13:40 >> LOS MOMENTOS MEMBERS HAVE TRAVELED INTERNATIONALLY TO
01:13:43 ASSIST FIREFIGHTERS IN NICARAGUA TO PROVIDE
01:13:46 TRAININGS WHILE HELPING DELIVER EQUIPMENT AND RESOURCES TO
01:13:47 FIREFIGHTERS IN NEED. >> HERE AT HOME THOSE MEMBERS
01:13:51 HAVE CONTINUED TO STRENGTHEN EMERGENCY PREPAREDNESS THROUGH
01:13:54 SPANISH LANGUAGE PROGRAMS INCLUDING LEAST THOSE HELPING
01:13:58 FAMILIES PREPARE FOR EARTHQUAKES, FIRES, FLOODS
01:14:01 AND OTHER DISASTERS. >> WHAT MAKES THOSE MEMBERS
01:14:02 ESPECIALLY DESERVING OF RECOGNITION IS THE WAY ITS
01:14:06 MEMBERS HAVE BROUGHT THEIR CULTURAL HERITAGE AND THEIR
01:14:09 COMMITMENT TO THE FIRE DEPARTMENT TOGETHER.
01:14:11 >> THEY HAVE CARRIED THE TRADITIONS OF THEIR FAMILIES
01:14:14 AND COMMUNITIES INTO THE FIRE SERVICE WHILE BRINGING THE
01:14:17 VALUES OF COURAGE, COMPASSION, TEAMWORK AND SERVICE BACK INTO
01:14:21 THOSE COMMUNITIES. THE IMPACT OF REPRESENTATION IS
01:14:25 POWERFUL WHEN RESIDENTS CAN COMMUNICATE WITH A FIREFIGHTER
01:14:29 IN THEIR OWN LANGUAGE. WHEN YOUNG PEOPLE SEE MEMBERS
01:14:32 OF THEIR COMMUNITY PROUDLY WEARING THE UNIFORM AND WHEN
01:14:35 FAMILIES RECEIVE CRITICAL EMERGENCY INFORMATION IN A
01:14:37 LANGUAGE THEY UNDERSTAND TRUST IS BUILT.
01:14:40 >> THAT SENSE OF CONNECTION STRENGTHENS RELATIONSHIPS
01:14:44 BETWEEN FIREFIGHTERS AND THE COMMUNITIES THEY SERVE AND IN
01:14:47 AN EMERGENCY. THAT TRUST CAN MAKE ALL THE
01:14:48 DIFFERENCE TO THE MEMBERS OF LOS MUERTOS PAST AND PRESENT.

01:32:41 CENTURY POLICING IS SUPPOSED TO BE ONE OF THE REASONS THAT I
01:32:46 WENT TO WORK FOR THE POLICE DEPARTMENT SEVERAL YEARS AGO

01:32:52 FIRST TASK FORCE ON 21ST CENTURY POLICING DID.
01:32:56 >> AND IT REALLY EMPHASIZED THE PRINCIPLE THAT PUBLIC SAFETY
01:32:59 WORKS BEST WHEN POLICE AND COMMUNITY'S SWORN
01:33:03 AND CIVILIAN STAFF WORK TOGETHER COLLABORATIVELY IN THE
01:33:06 WORDS OF THE TASK FORCE REPORT, COMMUNITY POLICING EMPHASIZES
01:33:08 WORKING WITH NEIGHBORHOOD RESIDENTS TO CO-PRODUCE PUBLIC

01:34:17 ACTUALLY HAVE A VERY HONEST DISCUSSION ABOUT IT AND THAT WE
01:34:21 TRULY DO BOTH AGREE THAT THE BEST DECISION THAT HE HAS MADE

01:34:33 GREAT WOMEN IN YOUR LIFE AND BUT WHAT ALL JOKING ASIDE

01:34:50 OF JUSTICE, DAVE HAS COMMITTED TO SERVE SAN FRANCISCO IN THE
01:34:54 BEST INTERESTS OF SAN FRANCISCAN AND THERE'S NOT A

01:47:03 SUPERVISOR DORSEY THANK YOU PRESIDENT MANDOLIN COLLEAGUES I

01:47:09 THIS HEARING BECAUSE I THINK WE NEED TO BE COMPLETELY HONEST
01:47:12 AND CANDID ABOUT WHAT'S ACTUALLY HAPPENING HERE P G
01:47:16 AND ANY IS A PROJECT SPONSORS COUNTERPARTY.
01:47:19 APPEALING THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW OF A PROJECT FOR OUR
01:47:23 CITY TO ACQUIRE GENIUS ASSETS FOR A MUNICIPALLY OWNED POWER
01:47:26 ENTERPRISE. WHAT MAKES THIS PARTICULAR
01:47:28 APPEAL SO GALLING TO ME IS THAT ALL OF ALL THE PROCESSES PGE
01:47:35 AND COULD ABUSE OF ALL THE GEARS P, G AND E COULD CHOOSE
01:47:38 TO COME UP IN THE COURTS AT THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES
01:47:42 COMMISSION AT THE FEDERAL ENERGY REGULATION REGULATORY
01:47:44 COMMISSION OR FERC TO COME IN TO THIS BOARD CHAMBER AND TO
01:47:50 WASTE OUR TIME WITH ITS EXPENSIVE AND DILATORY STUNTS
01:47:54 DEMONSTRATES A CONTEMPT FOR THIS BODY AND THIS CITY THAT IS
01:47:58 IN MY VIEW BREATHTAKING. >> BUT NEITHER IS IT SURPRISING
01:48:02 FOR PGE IN THIS IS A WELL-ESTABLISHED PATTERN OF
01:48:06 CORPORATE BEHAVIOR THAT OUR OWN SFP U C ESTIMATES HAS COST OUR
01:48:09 CITY AND ITS TAXPAYERS $76 MILLION SINCE 2018 AND THAT HAS
01:48:15 OBSTRUCTED NEARLY 200 PROJECTS PROJECTS THAT OUR OWN RESIDENTS
01:48:19 AND WORKERS NEED. JUST ASK OUR SF MTA OPERATORS
01:48:23 WHO NEEDED A SMALL RESTROOM CONNECTED AND WHO WERE TOLD BY
01:48:27 PG PANY THAT IT REQUIRED PRIMARY SWITCHGEAR.
01:48:30 THAT'S EQUIPMENT THAT IS APPROPRIATE FOR SOMETHING THE
01:48:33 SIZE OF GENERAL HOSPITAL FOR A RESTROOM THAT WAS ACTUALLY
01:48:37 SMALLER THAN THE EQUIPMENT ITSELF UNTIL STAFF FOUND A
01:48:38 WORKAROUND. JUST ASK THE TEAM BUILDING 138
01:48:44 UNITS OF AFFORDABLE HOUSING AT 2340 SAN JOSE WHO WAITED 20
01:48:48 MONTHS WHILE PGE REFUSED TO BACK OFF IN UNNECESSARY SURGERY
01:48:52 EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENT AND WHO THEN GOT HIT WITH $715,000
01:48:55 IN UPGRADE CHARGES FOR PGE IN HIS OWN DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
01:48:59 AND WHO THEN AFTER THE PROJECT WAS ALREADY ENERGIZED GOT HIT
01:49:03 WITH A $1.4 MILLION BILL THAT NO ONE SAW COMING?
01:49:07 JUST ASK MUNI METRO EAST WHICH HAD TO CANCEL AN
01:49:11 INTERCONNECTION REQUEST OUTRIGHT BECAUSE PGE ONLY
01:49:14 WANTED TO CHARGE OUR TAXPAYERS 18 MILLION DOLLARS FOR UPGRADES
01:49:18 TO PGE AND ITS OWN GRID JUST ASK ANY CITY DEPARTMENT TRYING
01:49:22 TO CONNECT A STREETLIGHT OR TRAFFIC SIGNAL NOW FACING A NEW
01:49:26 PGE ANY APPLICATION PROCESS THAT COULD COST OUR CITY $3
01:49:29 MILLION A MONTH FOR DEVICES THAT NEVER USED TO REQUIRE A
01:49:34 FEE AT ALL OR YOU CAN TUNE IN TO TOMORROW'S BUDGET
01:49:37 AND FINANCE COMMITTEE WHICH I NOW CHAIR AND THERE YOU CAN
01:49:41 LEARN ABOUT A 33 UNIT AFFORDABLE HOUSING PROJECT
01:49:42 AND YOU CAN FIND OUT WHY THE MAYOR'S OFFICE OF HOUSING
01:49:46 AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT ATTRIBUTES TO PGE MEANS
01:49:49 BASELESS DEMANDS AND DELAYS $3.3 MILLION IN ADDED COSTS
01:49:52 THAT IS ACCORDING TO OUR OWN BLA FOR COSTS AND I QUOTE
01:49:56 CONSISTING OF PGE ANY RELATED CONSTRUCTION CHARGES IMPOSED BY
01:50:02 ANY ADDITIONAL ARCHITECTURE AND INSURANCE COSTS AND A TAX
01:50:03 CREDIT TIMING ADJUSTMENT I COULD GO ON LISTING MORE
01:50:07 PROJECTS THAT PGE HAS STOOD IN THE WAY OF THE MISSION BAY
01:50:10 LIBRARY THE TRANSIT THE TRANSBAY TRANSIT CENTER, THE
01:50:16 PIER 22 FIRE BOAT BERTHING. BUT IF I GO ON WE WOULD BE HERE
01:50:20 FOR SEVERAL HOURS. >> COLLEAGUES, AS YOU KNOW I
01:50:21 SPENT 14 YEARS ON THE EXECUTIVE STAFF OF THE SAN FRANCISCO CITY
01:50:25 ATTORNEY'S OFFICE. I HAVE SEEN MORE THAN MY SHARE
01:50:28 OF BAD ACTORS AND QUERULOUS LITIGANTS AND NONE IS WORSE
01:50:32 THAN PGE IN SAN FRANCISCANS SHOULD HAVE HAD PUBLIC POWER
01:50:37 IN 2013 PGE WAS INSTRUMENTAL IN PREVENTING THAT THEN AND FOR
01:50:41 MORE THAN A CENTURY THEY'VE DONE EVERYTHING THEY CAN TO
01:50:45 KEEP OUR ELECTRICITY SYSTEM IN THE HANDS OF THEIR INVESTORS
01:50:48 INSTEAD OF OUR RESIDENTS AND RATEPAYERS.
01:50:50 >> AND SO HERE WE ARE ONE MORE EXPENSIVE AND DILATORY STUNT
01:50:56 THAT WE MUST SIT THROUGH. I HOPE WE GIVE THEM ALL THE
01:50:58 ATTENTION THEY DESERVE. THANK YOU.
01:51:03 >> SUPERVISOR DORSEY WE WILL NOW ASK THE FIRST APPELLANTS TO
01:51:11 COME FORWARD AND PRESENT THEIR CASE.
01:51:12 I BELIEVE THAT IS KRISTIN CIBRIAN OF COX.
01:51:16 KATHLEEN NICHOLSON ON BEHALF OF PG AND E.
01:51:30 GOOD AFTERNOON PRESIDENT. MEMBERS OF THE BOARD I'M HERE
01:51:31 ON BEHALF PGD KRISTIN SEBRING, COX, KATHLEEN NICHOLSON AND WE
01:51:36 ARE FOCUSING TONIGHT ON THE CIVIL COMPLIANCE FOR THE
01:51:39 PROPOSED PROJECT. AS YOU ALL MAY HAVE HEARD, MANY
01:51:45 TIMES WITH SECRET REVIEWS, THE PURPOSE IS TO REVIEW THE WHOLE
01:51:47 THE ACTION AND THAT'S NOT JUST BE DONE IN A VACUUM THAT'S
01:51:50 SUPPOSED TO BE WHAT IS YOUR ACTUAL PROPOSED ACTIVITY THAT
01:51:53 YOU'RE PUTTING FORWARD? AND ONE OF OUR CONCERNS WITH
01:51:56 THE ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW BEFORE YOU TODAY IS THAT THE PROPOSED
01:51:59 THE I R DOES NOT UTILIZE WHAT YOU ACTUALLY PROCESSING BEFORE
01:52:04 THE CPC TODAY YOU HAVE PROPOSED A SEPARATION PLAN INTO THE CPC
01:52:11 . IT'S AT A ENGINEERING LEVEL OF
01:52:12 DETAIL AND IN THAT PLAN IS NEITHER THE PROPOSED PROJECT.
01:52:19 IT'S NOT THE VARIANT OF THE PROJECT THAT'S IN THE AIR IS
01:52:22 NOT ONE OF THE ALTERNATIVES. AN EXAMPLE OF THAT IS THAT THE
01:52:26 IRR DISCUSSES A GAS INSULATED SUBSTATION THAT BE OWNED BY THE
01:52:30 CITY BUT WHAT YOU ARE DISCUSSING WITH THE CPC IS A
01:52:36 AIR INSULATED SUBSTATION TO BE OWNED BY PGE AND IN THE
01:52:40 DIFFERENCE IS THE AIR INSTALLATION REQUIRES A LARGER
01:52:42 FOOTPRINT ABOUT 25% AND THAT IS NOT DISCUSSED IN THE AIR.
01:52:47 WE BELIEVE THAT THE SEPARATION OF WHAT YOU ARE ACTUALLY
01:52:54 PROCESSING AND THEN WHAT IS THE AIR DISCUSSING IS A PROBLEM
01:52:59 BECAUSE YOU PUT ON BLINDERS THE INFORMATION YOU HAVE THE AIR
01:53:03 HAS SEVERAL COMPONENTS THAT THE PROJECT THERE IMPLIES THAT A
01:53:05 PROGRAM ATIC LEVEL OF DETAIL VERSUS A PROJECT LEVEL OF
01:53:08 DETAIL THE MORE GENERAL WHAT YOU NORMALLY SEE WITH LIKE SAVE
01:53:11 A SPECIFIC PLAN OR A MULTI PHASE PROJECT VERSUS A SINGLE
01:53:15 CONSTRUCTION PROJECT LIKE YOU PROPOSING HERE AND BECAUSE YOU
01:53:18 HAVE THAT INFORMATION IN THIS EPC PROCEEDINGS OF WHAT YOUR
01:53:21 ACTUAL PROJECT LEVEL DETAIL IS ,WE FEEL LIKE YOU'RE OBLIGATED
01:53:25 TO INCORPORATE THAT INTO YOUR ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW AND WE'RE
01:53:28 NOT ALONE THIS OPINION THE CPC AGREES JUST BRIEFLY QUOTING
01:53:32 FROM THEIR COMMENT LETTER ON THE DRAFT AIR AS THEY SAID THAT
01:53:37 THE CITY'S D AIR IS NOT CURRENTLY ADEQUATE FOR THE
01:53:41 CPC'S USE AND IT LISTS SEVERAL DEFICIENCIES AND ONE OF THOSE
01:53:44 IS THAT PROGRAMMATIC NATURE OF THE AIR AND THEY ASK FOR A MORE
01:53:48 PROJECT LEVEL ANALYSIS THAT THAT DEFICIENCY WAS NOT CURED
01:53:52 IN THE FINAL AIR AND WE STILL BELIEVE THAT DOES NEED TO BE
01:53:55 ADDRESSED AND I SEE MY TIME I THINK WE'RE JUST ASKING YOU TO
01:54:03 SEND THIS BACK TO PLANNING TO CURE THOSE DEFICIENCIES.
01:54:07 TO OUR KNOWLEDGE THERE'S NOT A RUSH IN THIS ANALYSIS BECAUSE
01:54:11 THERE'S NO PROPOSED PROJECT APPROVAL AT THIS TIME.
01:54:13 SO WE'RE NOT DELAYING THAT ACTION.
01:54:15 IF THERE WAS FURTHER ANALYSIS BE UNDERTAKEN WITH THAT
01:54:17 INFORMATION YOU DO HAVE IN YOUR POSSESSION NOW AND WE
01:54:20 RESPECTFULLY ASK YOU TO TO GRANT THE APPEAL IN A HAPPY TO
01:54:23 ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS THAT YOU MAY HAVE.
01:54:24 >> THANK YOU. I DON'T SEE ANY QUESTIONS.
01:54:31 >> THANK YOU. SO THE SECOND APPELLANT I
01:54:35 BELIEVE IS REPRESENTED BY RICK FRANCO OF ADAMS RODWELL JOSEPH
01:54:40 AND CARDOZO AND THAT IS THE COALITION OF CALIFORNIA UTILITY
01:54:44 EMPLOYEES. >> >> GOOD AFTERNOON.

01:54:58 THANK YOU. I REPRESENT THE APPELLANT
01:55:01 COALITION OF CALIFORNIA UTILITY EMPLOYEES WHICH IS A COALITION
01:55:05 OF LABOR UNIONS WHOSE MEMBERS WORK AT NEARLY ALL ELECTRIC
01:55:09 UTILITIES IN CALIFORNIA BOTH INVESTOR OWNED AND PUBLICLY
01:55:10 OWNED. THE COALITION AND ITS
01:55:13 INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS ARE NOT ONLY ELECTRICAL WORKERS BUT INCLUDE
01:55:17 RESIDENTS OF SAN FRANCISCO AND THE AREAS THAT WILL BE
01:55:20 AFFECTED BY CONSTRUCTION AND OPERATION OF THIS PROJECT.
01:55:23 WE'RE ASKING THAT THE BOARD GRANT OUR APPEAL AND REMAND THE
01:55:28 PROJECT TO THE STAFF TO PREPARE A REVISED ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
01:55:35 REPORT BEFORE THE PROJECT CAN BE APPROVED.
01:55:36 OUR WRITTEN SUBMISSION EXPLAINS IN DETAIL THE ISSUES THAT WE
01:55:40 BELIEVE SHOW THAT THE AIR IS INADEQUATE AS AN INFORMATIONAL
01:55:43 DOCUMENT AS REQUIRED BY SEQUOIA AND ON YOU KNOW IT INCLUDES
01:55:54 UNSUPPORTED CONCLUSIONS AND INCLUDES SIGNIFICANT NEW
01:55:58 INFORMATION THAT WAS NOT IN THE DRAFT AIR.
01:55:59 I'M JUST GOING TO GIVE A FEW EXAMPLES OF THAT OF THE WAY
01:56:03 THAT THE AIR WE BELIEVE IS NOT COMPLY WITH SEQUOIA.
01:56:08 FIRST, THE AIR DOES INCLUDE SIGNIFICANT NEW INFORMATION
01:56:10 THAT REQUIRES IT BE RECIRCULATED TO THE PUBLIC FOR
01:56:13 FURTHER PUBLIC REVIEW AND COMMENT UNDER SEQUEL WIND
01:56:17 AND THE AIR WHEN SIGNIFICANT NEW INFORMATION IS ADDED TO
01:56:21 IN THE AIR AFTER PUBLIC REVIEW AND BEFORE CERTIFICATION AS HAS
01:56:25 HAPPENED HERE THE AIR MUST BE RECIRCULATED AND TO GIVE THE
01:56:29 PUBLIC THE OPPORTUNITY TO REVIEW AND COMMENT ON THE NEW
01:56:32 INFORMATION SPECIFICALLY HERE, ONE OF THE PIECES OF NEW
01:56:37 INFORMATION IS THAT THE FINAL AIR INCLUDES A REVISED NOISE
01:56:44 ANALYSIS THAT SHOWS A PREVIOUSLY UNDISCLOSED NOISE
01:56:47 IMPACTS FROM OPERATION OF TRANSFORMERS AT THE MARTIN
01:56:48 SUBSTATION. AND RECOGNIZING THIS NEW IMPACT
01:56:52 THE CITY REVISED AN EXISTING MITIGATION MEASURE TO APPLY TO
01:56:56 THE MARTIN SUBSTATION AND CLAIMS THAT THE NEW IMPACT
01:56:59 WOULD BE THEREBY REDUCED TO LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT LEVELS.
01:57:03 BUT THIS APPROACH DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT THE AIR
01:57:06 IDENTIFIED A NEW SIGNIFICANT IMPACT REQUIRING RECIRCULATION
01:57:14 OF THE AIR UNDER SEQUOIA. I MEAN THE POINT OF
01:57:16 RECIRCULATION IS THAT THE PUBLIC HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO
01:57:19 EVALUATE ALL OF THE PROJECT'S IMPACTS INCLUDING THE
01:57:22 PREVIOUSLY DISCLOSED UNDISCLOSED IMPACT AND TO
01:57:26 EVALUATE WHETHER THE PROPOSED MITIGATION SUFFICIENTLY
01:57:29 ADDRESSES IT ON BY CERTIFYING THE AIR WITHOUT RECIRCULATION.
01:57:34 THE PUBLIC HAS BEEN DEPRIVED OF THIS OPPORTUNITY IN VIOLATION
01:57:41 OF SEQUA. SECONDLY, THE AIR ALSO FAILS AS
01:57:45 AN INFORMATIONAL DOCUMENT BECAUSE IT DOESN'T IDENTIFY OR
01:57:50 ANALYZE THE VARIOUS COMPONENTS OF THE PROPOSED DISTRIBUTION
01:57:53 SYSTEM SEPARATION. AGAIN, AS WAS MENTIONED BY PGE
01:57:57 AND COUNSEL, IT RELIES ON A MORE GENERAL PROGRAM LEVEL
01:58:00 ANALYSIS FOR THESE COMPONENTS RATHER THAN A SPECIFIC PROJECT
01:58:05 LEVEL ANALYSIS THAT SIEGLER REQUIRES.
01:58:08 >> Q FIRST MADE THIS COMMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE DRAFTY AIR
01:58:13 AND THE CITY SIMPLY HAS NOT YET ADEQUATELY ADDRESSED THIS OR
01:58:18 PROVIDED SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE TO SHOW THAT IT IS INFEASIBLE
01:58:21 ALL TO IDENTIFY AND ANALYZE ALL THE PROJECT COMPONENTS AT THIS
01:58:25 STAGE THE CITY WE KNOW IS CAPABLE OF PROVIDING A MORE
01:58:30 DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT COMPONENTS BECAUSE IT
01:58:31 DEMONSTRATED WHEN IT PROVIDED THIS DETAIL IN AN EARLIER
01:58:36 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW DOCUMENT THE MITIGATED NEGATIVE
01:58:40 DECLARATION THAT'S BEEN NOW SUPERSEDED BY THE SEA AIR BUT
01:58:43 THAT PREVIOUSLY THE CITY HAD DONE THAT LEVEL OF PROGRAM I'M
01:58:48 SORRY A PROJECT REVIEW AND SHOULD DO SO HERE ARE AGAIN
01:58:55 OUR WRITTEN SUBMISSIONS SETS FORTH A NUMBER OF A ISSUES THAT
01:59:03 WE BELIEVE REQUIRE REVISION AND RECIRCULATION OF THE AIR
01:59:07 AND WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT THE BOARD GRANT THIS
01:59:11 APPEAL AND INSTRUCT STAFF TO PREPARE A REVISED AIR.
01:59:15 >> THANK YOU. THANK YOU.
01:59:22 I DON'T SEE ANY COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS SO WE'LL OPEN UP
01:59:26 PUBLIC COMMENT SPECIFICALLY FOR THOSE WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK
01:59:27 IN SUPPORT OF THE APPEALS. MADAM CLERK, WILL YOU PLEASE
01:59:32 CALL THE FIRST SPEAKER IF THERE ARE LOOKS LIKE THERE MIGHT.
01:59:36 >> OKAY. IF YOU ARE HERE IN THE CHAMBER
01:59:41 AND YOU WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON BEHALF OF THE APPELLANT PLEASE
01:59:44 COME FORWARD. WE'RE SETTING THE TIMER FOR TWO
01:59:45 MINUTES. ALL RIGHT, MR. PRESIDENT.
01:59:48 >> ALL RIGHT. PUBLIC COMMENT.
01:59:49 WELL, MR. PRESIDENT, WE'LL GO TO THE REMOTE CALLERS.
01:59:52 WE'LL SEE IF THERE'S THERE ARE NO REMOTE CALLERS.
01:59:53 MR. PRESIDENT. >> ALL RIGHT.
01:59:55 PUBLIC COMMENT IN SUPPORT OF THE APPEAL IS CONCLUDED.
02:00:02 NOW WE WILL HAVE UP TO TEN MINUTES FOR REPRESENTATIVE OF
02:00:07 THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AND I THINK THAT'S TRULY MORE OKAY.
02:00:18 >> HELLO? CAN YOU HEAR ME?
02:00:19 YES. GOOD AFTERNOON.
02:00:20 PRESIDENT MANDOLIN AND MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
02:00:22 MY NAME IS JULIE MOORE, PRINCIPAL ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNER
02:00:26 WITH THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT. CAN WE PLEASE DISPLAY THE
02:00:29 SLIDES? >> YEP.
02:00:33 >> OKAY. BEFORE I BEGIN, I WANT TO
02:00:37 ACKNOWLEDGE THE TESTIMONY TODAY FROM SPEAKERS CONCERNED ABOUT
02:00:38 THE POTENTIAL IMPACTS AND THESE ISSUES HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED
02:00:41 IN OUR APPEAL RESPONSE AS WELL AS THE AIR ITSELF.
02:00:48 >> IN MAY THE DEPARTMENT PREPARED A DETAILED APPEAL
02:00:52 RESPONSE THAT WAS SUBMITTED TO THE CLERK OF THE BOARD ON
02:00:53 SEPTEMBER 14TH. I'LL BEGIN MY PRESENTATION WITH
02:00:57 A BRIEF OVERVIEW OF THE PROPOSED PROJECT ANALYZED
02:01:00 IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT OR EMR AND THEN
02:01:04 HIGHLIGHT THE KEY POINTS ADDRESSED IN OUR WRITTEN
02:01:07 RESPONSE. >> THE PROJECT IS THE CITY'S
02:01:08 PROPOSED PURCHASE OF PGE OWNED ELECTRICAL TRANSMISSION
02:01:12 AND DISTRIBUTION AND INFRASTRUCTURE OR ASSETS
02:01:16 NEEDED TO PROVIDE ELECTRIC SERVICE TO CUSTOMERS IN SAN
02:01:20 FRANCISCO. CONSTRUCTION WOULD BE REQUIRED
02:01:23 TO SEPARATE THE ACQUIRED ASSETS FROM CHINESE ELECTRICITY GRID.
02:01:27 THE AIR EVALUATES THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS
02:01:32 ASSOCIATED WITH THAT SEPARATION WHICH WOULD OCCUR PRIMARILY
02:01:36 IN SOUTHERN SAN FRANCISCO AND NORTHERN SAN MATEO COUNTY.
02:01:40 THE AIR EVALUATES VARIOUS COMPONENTS AT THE LOCATION AS
02:01:44 SHOWN ON THIS SLIDE. THE RED DOT REPRESENTS THE
02:01:46 MARTIN SUBSTATION LOCATION WHICH I'LL SHOW IN MORE DETAIL
02:01:49 IN A MINUTE. A SUBSTATION REDUCES HIGH
02:01:52 VOLTAGE ELECTRICITY FROM POWER TRANSMISSION LINES TO LOWER
02:01:57 VOLTAGE FOR DISTRIBUTION TO ELECTRIC CUSTOMERS.
02:02:01 THE PROJECT INCLUDES SEPARATING AND RECONFIGURING PGE NIS
02:02:04 MARTIN'S SUBSTATION IN BRISBANE SO ONE PORTION WOULD SERVE SAN
02:02:08 FRANCISCO AND THE OTHER SAN MATEO COUNTY.
02:02:11 THIS WOULD INCLUDE INSTALLATION OF NEW TRANSFORMER CIRCUIT
02:02:12 BREAKERS, SWITCHGEAR BUILDINGS, REVENUE METERS AND A CONTROL
02:02:16 HOUSE. THE EIA INCLUDES A VARIANCE TO
02:02:20 THE SUBSTATION SEPARATION AND THE VARIANCE.
02:02:24 WE CONSTRUCT A NEW SUBSTATION ON THE ADJACENT DALY CITY YARD
02:02:28 INSTEAD OF SEPARATING MARTIN'S SUBSTATION DISTRIBUTION
02:02:31 EXPRESSED FEEDERS. THE DASHED RED LINE HERE ARE
02:02:35 PROPOSED TO DELIVER ELECTRICITY FROM MARTIN'S SUBSTATION TO
02:02:39 AREAS IN SOUTHWESTERN SAN FRANCISCO.
02:02:40 THE REMAINING COMPONENTS INCLUDE SEPARATING LOCAL
02:02:44 OVERHEAD AND UNDERGROUND DISTRIBUTION LINES AROUND THE
02:02:48 COUNTY BORDER AT GENERAL LOCATIONS WITHIN THE AREAS
02:02:52 SHADED IN PEACH AND SYSTEM REINFORCEMENTS TO MAINTAIN
02:02:55 RELIABILITY AT LOCATIONS WITHIN THE AREAS OUTLINED IN YELLOW.
02:02:59 IN ADDITION, NEW SERVICE YARDS AND A CONTROL CENTER ARE
02:03:03 PROPOSED WITHIN SOUTHEAST SAN FRANCISCO NOT SHOWN ON THE MAP.
02:03:07 >> THIS SLIDE SUMMARIZES THE PROJECT COMPONENTS.
02:03:11 THE FIRST THREE ARE ANALYZED AT A MORE DETAILED PROJECT LEVEL
02:03:15 IN THE AIR. AND THE REMAINING COMPONENTS
02:03:16 ARE ANALYZED AT A MORE GENERAL PROGRAMMATIC LEVEL.
02:03:20 THIS SLIDE SHOWS THE MARTIN SUBSTATION AREA IN MORE DETAIL.
02:03:26 THE BLUE BOX ON THE LEFT WOULD BE THE LOCATION OF EITHER THE
02:03:28 CONSTRUCTION AND STAGING AREA FOR MARTIN SUBSTATION
02:03:32 SEPARATION OR THE PROJECT VARIANT WHICH WOULD BE A NEW
02:03:35 SUBSTATION IN THE RESPONSES TO COMMON DOCUMENT.
02:03:39 THE PROJECT DESCRIPTION WAS REFINED TO SLIGHTLY EXPAND THE
02:03:43 MARTIN SUBSTATION SEPARATION PROJECT SITE.
02:03:47 AS YOU SEE HERE FROM THE RED DASHED LINE APPROXIMATELY 150FT
02:03:50 WEST TO THE PINKS LINE. THE PROJECT WAS ALSO REVISED TO
02:03:55 ADD A POTENTIAL CONSTRUCTION STAGING AREA WITHIN THE
02:03:58 BADLANDS SITE. ON THE TOP RIGHT OF THE FIGURE
02:04:01 ,APPELLANTS RAISE A WIDE VARIETY OF ISSUES ALL OF WHICH
02:04:06 ARE ADDRESSED IN DETAIL IN OUR WRITTEN RESPONSE.
02:04:09 >> BROADLY OUR RESPONSES FALL INTO FOUR CATEGORIES WHICH ARE
02:04:11 FOCUS ON IN MY PRESENTATION PROJECT DESCRIPTION REFINEMENTS
02:04:17 DO NOT CREATE NEW OR SUBSTANTIALLY MORE SEVERE
02:04:18 IMPACTS REVISIONS MADE IN THE RESPONSES TO COMMON STOCK MEANT
02:04:25 DO NOT CONSTITUTE SIGNIFICANT NEW INFORMATION REQUIRING
02:04:29 RECIRCULATION. THE IRRS IMPACT ANALYSIS IS
02:04:33 SUPPORTED BY SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE AND THE PLANNING
02:04:37 DEPARTMENT FOLLOWED ALL REQUIRED SECURE AND CITY
02:04:38 ADMINISTRATIVE CODE CHAPTER 31 PROCEDURES ACCURATELY
02:04:42 AND APPROPRIATELY. >> APPELLANTS CLAIM A DIFFERENT
02:04:49 PROJECT VERSION IN THE CALIFORNIA PUBLIC UTILITIES
02:04:52 COMMISSION VALUATION PROCESS INVALIDATES THE SECURE PROJECT
02:04:57 DESCRIPTION. THIS IS NOT TRUE.
02:04:57 THE IRR ADEQUACY IS RELATED TO HOW WELL IT EVALUATES THE
02:05:02 PROJECT DESCRIBED IN THE AIR. OTHER REGULATORY REGULATORY
02:05:08 PROJECT VERSIONS ARE IRRELEVANT HERE.
02:05:09 THE EIA INCLUDES BOTH PROJECT SPECIFIC AND PROGRAMMATIC COMP
02:05:13 COMPONENTS AND ANALYZES EACH AT AN APPROPRIATE LEVEL OF DETAIL
02:05:20 . >> APPELLANTS CLAIM ALL
02:05:20 COMPONENTS SHOULD HAVE BEEN ANALYZED AT A PROJECT LEVEL.
02:05:24 BUT CEQA ALLOWS AGENCIES TO CHOOSE THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL
02:05:28 BASED ON THE AVAILABLE INFORMATION AND THE AIR FOLLOWS
02:05:32 THE STANDARD. SEE ALSO PROVIDES TOOLS FOR
02:05:36 REVIEWING FUTURE REFINEMENTS AND CONTRARY TO APPELLANT
02:05:40 CLAIMS THE PROJECT INCLUDES ADEQUATE SYSTEM REINFORCEMENTS
02:05:44 AND STAGING AREAS. THEY ALSO ARGUE THE PROJECT
02:05:48 CANNOT BE EVALUATED WITHOUT KNOWING THE CITY'S EXACT
02:05:51 APPROVAL ACTION. SEQUOIA ADEQUACY IS BASED ON
02:05:52 THE ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS IN THE EIA ARE NOT IT'S NOT THE
02:05:56 PROJECT APPROVAL MECHANISM. IN SUM THE AIR FULLY COMPLIES
02:06:03 WITH SEQUOIA. >> APPELLANTS ARGUE
02:06:04 RECIRCULATION IS REQUIRED BUT NONE OF SEQUOIA'S REQUIRED
02:06:08 CRITERIA ARE MET. THE RESPONSES TO COMMENTS ON
02:06:12 THE DRAFT ARE INTRODUCED NO SIGNIFICANT NEW IMPACT, NO NEW
02:06:16 SIGNIFICANT IMPACTS OR SUBSTANTIALLY DIFFERENT
02:06:19 MITIGATION OR ALTERNATIVES. >> THE COMMENT THAT
02:06:24 RECIRCULATION IS REQUIRED IF THERE'S A NEW MITIGATION
02:06:28 MEASURE. THIS ONLY APPLIES IF THE
02:06:31 MITIGATION MEANT IF THERE'S A NEW MITIGATION MEASURE WHICH IS
02:06:33 CONSIDERABLY DIFFERENT THAN THOSE AND WOULD REDUCE IMPACTS
02:06:36 BUT THE PROJECT PROPONENTS DECLINED TO ADOPT IT.
02:06:40 MINOR CHANGES IN A MITIGATION MEASURE THAT THE PROJECT
02:06:44 SPONSOR HAS APPROVED HAS AGREED TO ADOPT IS WHAT HAS OCCURRED
02:06:48 HERE. SO THERE'S BEEN NO NEW
02:06:52 INFORMATION THAT HAS DEPRIVED THE PUBLIC OF A MEANINGFUL
02:06:55 OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT. >> RESPONSES TO COMMENTS
02:06:59 EVALUATE MINOR REFINEMENTS INCLUDING A SLIGHT EXPAND
02:07:03 EXPANSION AT THE MARTIN SUBSTATION SITE IN THIS NEW
02:07:06 STAGING AREA. THESE DO NOT CREATE NEW OR
02:07:10 SUBSTANTIALLY MORE SEVERE IMPACTS.
02:07:11 >> THE NOISE NORTH OF GENEVA AVENUE WOULD INCREASE BY LESS
02:07:18 THAN ONE DECIBEL AND REMAIN LESS INSIGNIFICANT WITH
02:07:21 MITIGATION NOISE AT MIDWAY VILLAGE COULD INCREASE UP TO
02:07:26 FIVE DECIBELS BUT WOULD STILL REMAIN WELL BELOW FEDERAL
02:07:29 GUIDANCE AND WOULD NOT BE SUBSTANTIALLY MORE SEVERE.
02:07:33 CLAIMS OF NEW AIR QUALITY OR HAZARDOUS MATERIALS IMPACTS
02:07:37 FROM THE STAGING AREA ARE NOT SUPPORTED AND IMPACTS REMAIN
02:07:41 SIMILAR TO THOSE IN THE DRAFTY AIR.
02:07:44 FEMA REVISIONS ADDRESS COMMENTS AND SMALL CALCULATE ERRORS
02:07:49 IN NOISE AND AIR QUALITY AND DO NOT INTRODUCE NEW SIGNIFICANT
02:07:53 IMPACTS. >> THE ERS ALTERNATIVE ANALYSIS
02:07:57 IS ADEQUATE. APPELLANTS A PROPOSED
02:08:01 ALTERNATIVE OF MUTUAL RESOLUTION OF AN EXISTING
02:08:04 DISPUTE BETWEEN P, G AND E AND THE CITY ALONG WITH
02:08:08 CONTINUED USE OF COMMUNITY CHOICE AGGREGATION IS
02:08:11 ESSENTIALLY THE NO PROJECT ALTERNATIVE AND IS NOT
02:08:12 SIGNIFICANT QUENTLY DIFFERENT OR CLEARLY ENVIRONMENTALLY
02:08:16 SUPERIOR. THERE IS NOT SIGNIFICANT NEW
02:08:19 INFORMATION. >> APPELLANTS CHALLENGE
02:08:23 CHALLENGE SEVERAL IMPACT ANALYZES SUGGESTED ADDITIONAL
02:08:26 NOISE MITIGATION LACKS EVIDENCE OF FEASIBILITY ADDITIONAL
02:08:31 DISCUSSION CLARIFIES THE HAZARDOUS MATERIALS
02:08:35 REQUIREMENTS AND DETOX. DEPARTMENT OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES
02:08:39 CONTROL OVERSIGHT OF ANY SOIL DISTURBING ACTIVITIES OR LAND
02:08:43 USE CHANGES ON MARTIN SUBSTRATE AND AND DALY CITY YARD.
02:08:47 COMPLIANCE WITH THESE EXISTING REGULATIONS ENSURES HAZARDOUS
02:08:51 MATERIALS IMPACTS REMAIN LESS INSIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCES
02:08:54 AND SPECIES OCCURRENCE DESIGNATIONS WOULD NOT CHANGE
02:08:58 THAT LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT OUTCOME.
02:08:59 OUTCOME RELATED TO BUMBLEBEES AND CULTURAL RESOURCE
02:09:03 MITIGATION MEASURES WERE DEVELOPED BY QUALIFIED STAFF
02:09:07 AND NO EVIDENCE OF IMPACT IS PRESENTED BY APPELLANTS.
02:09:11 OVERALL THE COMMENTS DO NOT SHOW FEARS IMPACT CONCLUSIONS
02:09:15 LAX SUBSTANTIAL EVIDENCE. FINALLY THE PLANNING
02:09:22 COMMISSION'S HEARING NOTICE COMPLIES WITH THE SAN FRANCISCO
02:09:23 ADMINISTRATIVE CODE AND INFORMS THE PUBLIC OF THE EIA APPEAL
02:09:29 TIMELINE. INCLUSION OF THE INITIAL STUDY
02:09:30 IN THE AIR CONFORMS WITH SEQUOIA.
02:09:34 SO IN CONCLUSION AN AIR CERTIFICATION MEANS THAT THE
02:09:38 EIA COMPLIES WITH SEQUOIA AND THE SAN FRANCISCO
02:09:42 ADMINISTRATIVE CODE THAT THE EIA IS ADEQUATE, ACCURATE
02:09:46 AND OBJECTIVE. THE AIR COMPLIES WITH SECURE
02:09:50 AND THE APPELLANT HAS NOT MET THE BURDEN OF PROOF TO
02:09:53 DEMONSTRATE OTHERWISE. >> THANK YOU OR THANK YOU FOR
02:09:58 THAT. >> I DO NOT SEE COMMENTS OR
02:10:01 QUESTIONS. SO I WILL NOW INVITE THE
02:10:05 PROJECT SPONSOR THE PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION TO SPEAK
02:10:08 FOR UP TO TEN MINUTES. AND THAT'S RON FLYNN.
02:10:12 >> GOOD AFTERNOON PRESIDENT RANDLEMAN AND MEMBERS OF THE
02:10:16 BOARD. I AM RON FLYNN, DEPUTY GENERAL
02:10:19 MANAGER OF THE SAN FRANCISCO PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION.
02:10:22 THE PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF HAVE WORKED CLOSELY WITH SFP
02:10:26 U.S. OVER THE LAST SEVERAL YEARS ON THE ENVIRONMENTAL
02:10:28 IMPACT REPORT FOR THE PROPOSED JEANNIE POWER ASSET ACQUISITION
02:10:35 PROJECT. >> I WANT TO THANK THE PLANNING
02:10:36 STAFF FOR THEIR GREAT WORK AND THEIR HARD WORK WHICH LED
02:10:40 THE COMMISSIONERS LED TO THE COMMISSION'S CERTIFICATION OF
02:10:44 THE FINAL AIR SAN FRANCISCO WAS LUCKY TO HAVE SUCH DEDICATED
02:10:47 AND TALENTED PUBLIC SERVANTS. I ALSO WANT TO THANK STAFF AT
02:10:51 THE SFP PUC AND THE CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE FOR THEIR
02:10:55 EXTENSIVE WORK ON THE AIR. SIMPLY PUT SAN FRANCISCO ADOPTS
02:11:01 THE PRESENTATION FROM THE PLANNING COMMISSION
02:11:05 AND SUPPORTS THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S RECOMMENDATION TO
02:11:06 REJECT THE APPEAL OF THE CERTIFICATION OF THE AIR
02:11:12 CERTIFICATION IS AN IMPORTANT MILESTONE FOR THIS PROJECT
02:11:17 AND WILL ALLOW THE CITY TO CONTINUE TO PURSUE THE
02:11:18 ACQUISITION. >> I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THE
02:11:21 BOARD AFFIRM THE PLANNING COMMISSION'S CERTIFICATION OF
02:11:25 THE AIR. >> THANK YOU.
02:11:28 THANK YOU. AND I DO NOT SEE SUPERVISOR
02:11:36 DORSEY. >> THANK YOU PRESIDENT EDELMAN.
02:11:40 AS I EXPLAINED EARLIER, IT WAS MY VIEW THAT GENIE IS A BAD
02:11:44 FAITH ACTOR ABUSING SEQUOIA WITH THIS APPEAL AND NOTHING
02:11:47 I'VE LEARNED IN THIS HEARING CHANGES THAT PERSPECTIVE ON THE
02:11:51 MERITS OF THE APPEAL. I'M CONVINCED THAT IT'S
02:11:52 BASELESS. I APPRECIATE THE WORK OF OUR
02:11:55 SUPERVISOR DORSEY. >> IF YOU WANT TO OFFER
02:11:59 CONCLUDING REMARKS WE MIGHT PERHAPS TAKE PUBLIC COMMENTS ON
02:12:04 ME. OKAY.
02:12:04 YEAH. ON THE ON IN OPPOSITION TO THE
02:12:08 APPEAL THEN PERHAPS GIVE A REBUTTAL TO TO THE APPELLANT
02:12:12 ALL RIGHT SO IF OTHER PEOPLE TAKING THEIR NAMES OFF THE
02:12:18 QUEUE. >> ALL RIGHT SO IF THERE ARE NO
02:12:20 OTHER COMMENTS OR QUESTIONS FROM COLLEAGUES, I WOULD INVITE
02:12:22 MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC WHO WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION TO
02:12:27 THE APPEALS TO ADDRESS US AGAIN WITH UP TO TWO MINUTES
02:12:33 AND MADAM CLERK, WILL YOU PLEASE CALL OUR FIRST SPEAKER?
02:12:34 IT LOOKS LIKE WE DO HAVE ONE THIS TIME IF YOU'RE HERE TO
02:12:39 SPEAK IN SUPPORT OF THE PROJECT OR IN OPPOSITION TO THE APPEAL
02:12:43 AS THE PRESIDENT STATED. >> PLEASE COME UP TO THE PODIUM
02:12:45 . MR. RIGHT ONLY BEEN HERE 30S
02:12:50 AND I CAN ALREADY SEE HEATED SIGHS AMONG SEAN BOARD AND I
02:12:57 LIKE TO USE THE REMAINDER OF MY PUBLIC TIME OR MY PUBLIC
02:13:02 COMMENT TO HEAR FROM WALSH AND HEAR WHAT HE WANTED TO SAY
02:13:06 WHAT HE WANTS TO SPEAK ABOUT AND THEN HAVE YOU RESPOND
02:13:09 ACCORDINGLY BECAUSE YOU HAVE A CONFLICT AMONGST YOURSELVES
02:13:12 AND ABOUT JENNY YOU FINALLY TOOK MY ADVICE ABOUT MAKING
02:13:20 YOUR CAN'T DO IT LIES ON YOUR OVERHEAD ELECTRICITY LINES
02:13:24 WHICH WAS STARTING ALL THESE FIRES THINGS THAT COME FOR ME
02:13:28 TAKE TIME. I KNOW I'M NOT GOING TO GET
02:13:31 CREDIT FOR IT BECAUSE OF MY SKIN COLOR BECAUSE I'M BLACK.
02:13:34 BUT I WAS THE ONE THAT CAME UP WITH THE IDEA OF STOP USING
02:13:38 OVERHEAD ELECTRICAL LINES WHICH WAS STARTING FIRES SUCH AS RED
02:13:42 COFFEE'S FIRE. I POINTED OUT TO EVERYBODY THAT
02:13:46 YOU NEED A CONDUIT LINE AND RUN THOSE ELECTRICAL LINES
02:13:49 UNDERGROUND AND YOU CAN'T START A MAJOR FIRE AND CAUSE PEOPLE
02:13:54 TO LOSE THEIR HOMES AND LIVES. SO I'D LIKE TO TURN THE REST OF
02:13:55 MY TIME OVER TO WALTER AND HAVE THE REST OF YOU STRAIGHTEN OUT
02:13:59 YOUR CONFLICT. THANK YOU, MR. WRIGHT, FOR YOUR
02:14:03 COMMENTS. IS THERE ANOTHER SPEAKER?
02:14:06 >> WELCOME. OTTO DUFFY MY NAME IS OTTO
02:14:09 DUFFY. I'M A RESIDENT OF SAN FRANCISCO
02:14:12 . I DON'T WANT TO TAKE ANY MORE
02:14:13 TIME THIS THIS PROCESS. I MEAN IT SEEMS LIKE IT STARTED
02:14:18 ME A LONG TIME AGO AND APPARENTLY IT'S NOT
02:14:19 FINISHED YET. I, I ENCOURAGED JUST TO GET TO
02:14:25 THE POINT WHERE SUPERVISOR DORSEY CAN MAKE HIS CLOSING
02:14:26 REMARKS. THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR
02:14:29 COMMENTS. NEXT SPEAKER PLEASE.
02:14:35 >> I'M TERRIBLY UNPREPARED. WHEN I STOOD HERE THREE WEEKS
02:14:39 AGO THE NUMBER OF RECORDED AUTONOMOUS FELONIES WAS 17.
02:14:42 WHEN I STOOD HERE AGAIN ONE WEEK AGO THE NUMBER WENT UP TO
02:14:45 20. >> THE COURT A TALLY IS NOW 20.
02:14:46 ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT THE PPG AND THE APPEAL?
02:14:50 >> IS THIS PUBLIC? NO, BUT I MEAN YOU CAN COME
02:14:53 BACK BUT IT'LL BE IT'LL BE A LITTLE WHILE SO ARE THERE OTHER
02:14:56 SPEAKERS IN THE CHAMBER? GREAT.
02:14:59 COME ON UP. I CAN BEFORE YOU RUN MY TIME.
02:15:04 CAN I JUST ASK A QUESTION? I'M NOT NECESSARILY IN FAVOR OR
02:15:08 AGAINST. I HAVE A GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT
02:15:11 ON THIS TOPIC. THIS IS THOSE WHO ARE IN FAVOR
02:15:12 OF THE PROJECT OR IN AND THEN WE'LL BE UP THERE BE GENERAL
02:15:16 PUBLIC COMMENT AFTER THIS IS YOUR OPPORTUNITY SO PLEASE GO
02:15:19 AHEAD. WE'LL THEN I'LL JUST GO AHEAD
02:15:22 FOUR AND YOU CAN COUNT IT HOWEVER YOU WANT TO TALK ABOUT
02:15:23 INAPPROPRIATELY WASTING CITY FUNDS.
02:15:26 WHY ARE WE EVEN DISCUSSING THIS?
02:15:28 THE IDEA THAT THE P C SHOULD BE RUNNING THE GRID IS GREAT
02:15:34 VIRTUE SIGNALING BUT WILL LEAVE SAN FRANCISCANS HOLDING THE BAG
02:15:38 ON MASSIVE COSTS. >> PGE HAS FAILED US BUT SAN
02:15:40 FRANCISCO RUNNING THE POWER GRID IS NOT THE ANSWER.
02:15:43 >> PGE SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR ITS
02:15:46 FAILURES AND COMPENSATE CUSTOMERS WHEN IT CAUSES REAL
02:15:50 LOSSES. >> BUT TURNING THE GREAT OVER
02:15:51 TO CITY HALL IS A VERY EXPENSIVE WAY TO PUNISH PAGANI
02:15:54 AND SAN FRANCISCANS WILL END UP PAYING THE PRICE.
02:15:58 >> ONE SAN FRANCISCO HAS A LARGE BUDGET DEFICIT CAUSED THE
02:16:02 SPEAKER TO ASK MY CLERK A QUESTION.
02:16:04 MADAM CLERK IT STRIKES ME THAT WE ARE TAKING COMMENT.
02:16:09 WE ARE HEARING AN APPEAL OF AN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT.
02:16:13 WE THE WAY WE HAVE SET THIS UP THE TOPICS FOR DISCUSSION
02:16:17 AND THIS IS I CAN UNDERSTAND THE FRUSTRATION FOR A MEMBER OF
02:16:21 THE PUBLIC WE'RE ALLOWING PEOPLE TO SPEAK IN FAVOR OF THE
02:16:24 APPEAL OR AGAINST THE APPEAL. >> NEITHER OF THOSE IS REALLY
02:16:26 ON THE SUBSTANCE OF A POTENTIAL ACQUISITION WHICH IS NOT
02:16:29 ACTUALLY IN FRONT OF US IN THIS HEARING.
02:16:32 SO I THINK WHAT I THINK THE ANSWER TO THE QUESTION THAT
02:16:36 MISERABLY ASKED AT THE BEGINNING OF HER COMMENT WAS
02:16:39 THAT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE TO MAKE THE COMMENT I THINK SHE IS
02:16:44 TRYING TO MAKE NOW IS GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT LIKE THE BOARD'S
02:16:47 GENERAL I'M SORT OF LOOKING AT THE CITY ATTORNEY TO HELP ME
02:16:49 OUT HERE. >> IS THAT CORRECT?
02:16:51 CAUSE RIGHT NOW IF ANYTHING I MEAN I DON'T THINK SHE'S REALLY
02:16:55 ADDRESSING THE APPEAL BUT IF SHE IS SPEAKING SHE'S SPEAKING
02:16:58 IN UP IN IN SUPPORT OF THE APPEAL.
02:17:03 DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY BRAD ROSSI AND I FROM WHAT THE SPEAKER
02:17:07 SAID AT THE OUTSET, SHE IS NOT IN FAVOR OR OPPOSED TO THIS
02:17:11 APPEAL. AND SO I THINK IT IS
02:17:12 APPROPRIATE FOR OUR COMMENT TO BE GIVEN UNDER GENERAL PUBLIC
02:17:15 COMMENT. >> OKAY.
02:17:15 ALL RIGHT. SORRY, MR. ROBB.
02:17:18 >> WELL, CAN WE ASK YOU TO COME BACK?
02:17:19 YES, BUT I BUT I WOULD LIKE TO SAY I THINK IT UNDERPINS THE
02:17:22 ENTIRE I THINK IT UNDERPINS THIS HEARING BUT YES, I CAN
02:17:29 COME BACK. WHEN WILL GENERAL PUBLIC
02:17:30 COMMENT BE? >> NOT LONG.
02:17:32 I THINK WE HAVE TO GET THROUGH THIS HEARING A LITTLE BIT OF A
02:17:37 LITTLE BIT MORE OF INTRODUCTION OF ROLL CALL AND THEN WE GO TO
02:17:41 GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT. >> OKAY, WE'RE NOT GOING TO
02:17:44 HAVE LIKE TWO MORE HOURS OF COMMENDATIONS.
02:17:45 >> OKAY. AWESOME.
02:17:46 THANK YOU. >> SO TO REITERATE THIS IS
02:17:51 PUBLIC COMMENT IN OPPOSITION TO THE APPEAL IN SUPPORT OF THE
02:17:57 PROJECT. >> MY NAME IS RICHARD SD
02:18:02 PETERSON MR. MANTEL PRESIDENT MANAGEMENT AND BOARD OF
02:18:06 SUPERVISORS. THAT WAS A VERY CONFUSING
02:18:12 ARGUMENT ON BOTH SIDES. >> BUT IF WE ARE SITTING HERE
02:18:16 LIKE THE JURY I WOULD CERTAINLY GIVE IT TO OUR OWN CITY AS FAR
02:18:20 AS COMING THROUGH LIKE CHAMPS AND SHOWING THAT THE APPEALS
02:18:25 SHOULD BE NOT DENIED. AND IF I WERE JURORS SITTING
02:18:29 IN AN AUDIENCE HERE I'M SORRY, JENNY, BUT THAT WAS A BAD
02:18:36 PRESENTATION DENIED. >> >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR
02:18:40 COMMENTS. >> NEXT SPEAKER.
02:18:45 >> GOOD AFTERNOON BOYD GRIFFIN LEE DISTRICT TWO RESIDENT
02:18:50 CONNECTED S.F. I'M HERE TO QUESTION ONE OF THE TOPICS
02:18:54 IN THE APPEAL AND ACTUALLY SUPPORT IT AND MAKE YOU ALL
02:19:01 QUESTION A LITTLE BIT ABOUT IT SPECIFICALLY IT STATES THAT P C
02:19:05 CERTIFICATION DOES NOT REFLECT THE PLANNING COMMISSIONER'S
02:19:09 INDEPENDENT JUDGMENT AND ANALYSIS AND IT PROCEEDED
02:19:13 IN A DEFECTIVE NOTICE IN THIS DOCUMENT.
02:19:16 >> DEFECTIVE HAS BEEN USED NUMEROUS TIMES AND WHEN WE'RE
02:19:20 TALKING ABOUT AN INDEPENDENT ANALYSIS IT'S THE PLANNING
02:19:24 COMMISSION AND PLANNING DEPARTMENT SHOULD NOT THAT'S
02:19:28 NOT INDEPENDENT. >> IT SHOULD BE THIRD PARTY THE
02:19:29 PLANNING DEPARTMENT AND PLANNING COMMISSION HAVE
02:19:33 BEEN UNDER A LACK OF TRUST FOR THE LAST HANDFUL OF YEARS
02:19:36 DATING BACK TO THE FAMILY ZONING PLAN.
02:19:37 >> HOW IS THIS ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT IN INDEPENDENT
02:19:44 ANALYSIS AND JUDGMENT PLEASE CLARIFY THANK YOU.
02:19:47 >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. ARE THERE ANY OTHER SPEAKERS
02:19:51 IN THE CHAMBER? IF NOT MR. PRESIDENT, WE'LL GO
02:19:55 TO THE REMOTE TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY CALLERS WE'RE CHECKING
02:19:59 RIGHT NOW. THERE ARE NO CALLERS, MR.
02:20:03 PRESIDENT. >> OKAY.
02:20:07 SO PUBLIC COMMENT OSTENSIBLY IN OPPOSITION TO THE APPEAL IS
02:20:11 NOW CLOSED AND SO WITH THAT WE WOULD INVITE THE APPELLANTS TO
02:20:19 PRESENT THEIR REBUTTAL ARGUMENTS FOR UP TO THREE
02:20:21 MINUTES. AND JUST TO BE CLEAR, THAT'S
02:20:35 THREE MINUTES EACH. >> MADAM CLERK CORRECT.
02:20:36 OKAY. THANK YOU KRISTIN SEE READ
02:20:39 AGAIN ON BEHALF OF PGE, I WOULD JUST LIKE TO REFER YOU TO OUR
02:20:42 PAPERS ON THE OTHER ISSUES RAISED AND THEN ALSO ON THE WE
02:20:46 JUST POINT OUT ON THE BOX SHOWN ON THE FIGURE BY PLANNING STAFF
02:20:52 ONE OF OUR CLAIMS IS THAT THAT IS NOT BASED ON SUBSTANTIAL
02:20:54 EVIDENCE BECAUSE THE BOX IS THE SAME SIZE FOR A NEW SUBSTATION
02:21:01 ,IT'S THE SAME SIZE FOR NEW LAYDOWN AREA AND WE POINTED
02:21:03 THAT OUT. IT ALSO BECAME THE SAME SIZE
02:21:05 FOR BOTH A SUBSTATION AND A LAY DOWN AREA.
02:21:08 IT'S JUST ONE OF THE CLAIMS ARE SET FORTH IN OUR PAPERS
02:21:10 AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME MR. FRANCO THANK YOU.
02:21:23 BRIEFLY ON THE ON THE ISSUE OF THE PROGRAM LEVEL AND MORE
02:21:27 GENERAL REVIEW VERSUS PROJECT LEVEL MORE SPECIFIC REVIEW
02:21:31 AGAIN THE CITY IS NOT SUPPORTED ITS POSITION THAT IT'S
02:21:35 INFEASIBLE TO DO THE MORE SPECIFIC PROJECT LEVEL REVIEW
02:21:42 AT THIS TIME. YOU KNOW THE IDENTIFICATION
02:21:46 AND ANALYSIS OF THESE LOCATIONS AND THE EQUIPMENT NECESSARY TO
02:21:50 PROVIDE ELECTRICAL SERVICE IS AN INTEGRAL AND YOU KNOW
02:21:54 FORESEEABLE PART OF THE PROJECT AND WE RECOGNIZE THAT THAT THE
02:21:59 CITY HAS RESPONDED IN WRITING TO THIS ISSUE.
02:22:02 >> BUT THE CITY'S RESPONSE IS JUST THAT UNCERTAINTIES REMAIN
02:22:06 AND SO THEY CAN'T DO THE SPECIFIC ANALYSIS AT THIS
02:22:10 POINT. IT'S OUR POSITION THAT SEEK
02:22:12 WILL REQUIRES THE CITY TO ADDRESS THOSE UNCERTAINTIES
02:22:17 AND TO TO DO A PROJECT LEVEL ANALYSIS SO THAT THE PUBLIC
02:22:24 KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT IS BEFORE IT .
02:22:28 AND THEN QUICKLY ON THE ISSUE OF RECIRCULATION AND SCHOOL
02:22:33 GUIDELINES, SECTION 15088.5 TALKS ABOUT WHAT IS SIGNIFICANT
02:22:39 NEW INFORMATION, SIGNIFICANT NEW INFORMATION THIS IS WHERE
02:22:43 THE AIR IS CHANGED IN A WAY THAT DEPRIVES THE PUBLIC OF A
02:22:44 MEANINGFUL OPPORTUNITY TO COMMENT ON A SUBSTANTIAL
02:22:47 ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECT OF THE PROJECT.
02:22:51 EXAMPLES OF SIGNIFICANT NEW INFORMATION INCLUDE A NEW
02:22:55 SIGNIFICANT ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT THAT WOULD RESULT FROM
02:22:58 THE PROJECT AND WE HAVE THAT HERE WHERE THE NEW ANALYSIS WAS
02:23:02 DONE OF THE NOISE IMPACTS AFTER THE PUBLIC COMMENT PERIOD FOR
02:23:09 THE DRAFT THE AIR WAS CLOSED CITY DID NEW ANALYSIS
02:23:13 AND IDENTIFIED THIS NEW IMPACT THAT TRIGGERS RECIRCULATION.
02:23:20 AND WITH THAT I'LL TAKE ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS.
02:23:27 THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION. THANK YOU.
02:23:37 I GUESS I DO HAVE I. >> I THINK I JUST WANT I GUESS
02:23:44 PLANNING TO SAY ONE MORE TIME WHY RECIRCULATION IS NOT
02:23:47 REQUIRED. >> OKAY.
02:23:55 >> RECIRCULATION IS NOT REQUIRED BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT
02:23:56 ANY NEW SIGNIFICANT INFORMATION THAT IT WAS NOT A NEW SIGNIFICA
02:24:03 AN IMPACT. WE SHOWED THAT THE NOISE IMPACT
02:24:04 WOULD BE LESS THAN SIGNIFICANT WITH THE MITIGATION MEASURE
02:24:08 THAT WAS PROVIDED. WE SAID IT SHOWED THAT THERE
02:24:11 WAS NO SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE IN THE SEVERITY OF AN IMPACT
02:24:14 IN THIS AND MITIGATION IS PROVIDED.
02:24:18 WE SHOWED THAT THE NEW NO NEW MITIGATION MEASURES THAT WERE
02:24:22 CONSIDERABLY DIFFERENT WERE BROUGHT UP DURING THIS PROCESS
02:24:26 THAT WERE CLEARLY LESS THAN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF THE
02:24:30 PROJECT. BUT THE PROJECT PROPONENTS
02:24:31 DECLINED TO ADOPT IT. >> SO ALL OF THESE THINGS THEY
02:24:35 YES THERE WERE SOME CHANGES IN THE PROJECT AND YES THERE
02:24:39 WERE AS A SLIDING CREASE IN SOME OF THESE EFFECTS BUT
02:24:43 THEY DID NOT RISE TO THE LEVEL OF BEING NEW SIGNIFICANT
02:24:46 INFORMATION THAT HAD DEPRIVED THE PUBLIC OF AN OPPORTUNITY TO
02:24:51 MEANINGFULLY MEANINGFULLY COMMENT ON THE PROJECT
02:24:54 AND SORRY IF I COULD JUST ASK ONE MORE THE HELEN LEAST ONE OF
02:25:04 THEM IS ARGUING THAT THIS IS THE WRONG LEVEL OF REVIEW, THAT
02:25:05 THIS IS A PROGRAM LEVEL REVIEW AND IT SHOULD BE A PROJECT
02:25:08 LEVEL REVIEW AND I KNOW YOU'VE ALREADY SAID THIS BUT CAN YOU
02:25:12 SAY IT AGAIN SLOWLY FOR ME WHY THIS IS THE APPROPRIATE LEVEL
02:25:16 OF REVIEW AT THIS TIME FOR THIS DOCUMENT?
02:25:20 YEAH, FOR THIS DOCUMENT AT THE TIME WE STARTED THE ANALYSIS
02:25:24 NOT ALL OF THE DETAILS ARE AVAILABLE AND IN ORDER TO
02:25:28 ENCOMPASS THE BROADEST SCOPE OF ANALYSIS WE INCLUDED SOME
02:25:35 THINGS THAT ARE PROGRAM LEVEL. WE KNOW THAT THEY'RE GOING TO
02:25:37 HAVE TO CLIP THINGS WIRES NEAR THE BORDER.
02:25:39 THEY COULD BE WITHIN THOSE GENERAL AREAS.
02:25:43 WE MADE BROAD ASSUMPTIONS AS TO HOW BIG AN AREA THAT WOULD BE,
02:25:47 WHAT WAS INVOLVED IN EACH INDIVIDUAL ONE.
02:25:51 SO WE FEEL THAT COLLECTIVELY WE HAVE COVERED THE POTENTIAL
02:25:55 IMPACTS TO SHOW THE WHOLE OF THE ACTION IF WE WAITED TO HAVE
02:25:59 THOSE DETAILS OF EVERY SINGLE LITTLE COMPONENT WE WOULD BE
02:26:03 HERE FOR A VERY LONG TIME AND WE'D PROBABLY NOT GET TO
02:26:07 IT. >> IT WOULD NEVER GET DONE
02:26:10 PROVIDE THE INFORMATION THAT DECISION MAKERS NEED AT THIS
02:26:14 POINT. BUT AT THIS POINT THIS THIS
02:26:15 DOCUMENT PROVIDES A VERY ROBUST UNDERSTANDING OF THE
02:26:22 ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF THIS PROPOSED PROJECT AND PRESUMABLY
02:26:26 AT EACH STEP ALONG THE WAY IF DECISION MAKERS HAVE TO TAKE
02:26:30 FURTHER DECISIONS, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS
02:26:34 DOCUMENT, FIGURE OUT WHETHER THIS DOCUMENT ADEQUATELY
02:26:37 EVALUATES ALL OF THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS, WHETHER
02:26:39 THERE HAVE BEEN CHANGES OR NEW IMPACTS AT THAT TIME WHEN THAT
02:26:43 ACTION IS TAKEN, WHENEVER THAT IS TAKEN.
02:26:46 SO WE'RE SORT OF ESTABLISHING A FOUNDATION HERE AND WE WON'T
02:26:50 KNOW WHAT WE DON'T KNOW UNTIL WE HAVE THAT ADDITIONAL LEVEL
02:26:54 OR THAT ADDITIONAL DECISION ACTUALLY IN FRONT OF US.
02:26:58 >> THAT IS CORRECT. WE SEE WHAT PROVIDES MECHANISMS
02:27:01 FOR US TO EVALUATE FOR FURTHER CHANGES.
02:27:05 WHEN YOU COME TO A PROJECT APPROVAL YOU'RE GOING TO NEED
02:27:09 TO LOOK BACK AND MAKE SURE THAT THE PROJECT THAT'S GETTING
02:27:10 APPROVED IS FULLY COVERED IN THE ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
02:27:14 REPORT OR POTENTIALLY SOME SUBSEQUENT ADDITIONAL
02:27:17 DOCUMENTATION THAT WOULD BE INCLUDED.
02:27:20 >> OKAY. THANK YOU FOR SAYING THAT AGAIN
02:27:24 FOR ME. >> I HAVE SOME COLLEAGUES IF IF
02:27:28 WE WANT TO ASK FURTHER QUESTIONS OF STAFF I GUESS WE
02:27:32 COULD DO IT DURING THE HEARING. ALTERNATIVELY I COULD CLOSE THE
02:27:35 HEARING AND LET FOLKS THEN MAKE THEIR STATEMENTS.
02:27:36 CAN I CLOSE THE HEARING OR DID YOU WANT TO ASK ONE MORE
02:27:40 QUESTION? OKAY.
02:27:41 SUPERVISOR JAN THANK YOU. >> I'M JUST TRYING TO
02:27:46 UNDERSTAND THE SCOPE OF THE AIR AND IF I UNDERSTAND CORRECTLY
02:27:53 IS SEEMS LIKE IS COVERING SAN FRANCISCO IN SOUTH OF SAN
02:27:57 FRANCISCO SO WHAT THE AIR COVERS IS ANY PLACE SO
02:28:05 ACQUISITION OF ANY ASSETS IN AND OF ITSELF DOES NOT IS
02:28:08 NOT A PHYSICAL CHANGE. BUT WHAT WE'RE LOOKING AT IS
02:28:12 WHERE CHANGES NEED TO BE MADE, WHERE THERE'S GOING TO BE
02:28:17 CONSTRUCTION OR OPERATION CHANGES THAT COULD RESULT
02:28:21 IN ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS AND WE KNOW THAT THAT'S DOWN IN THE
02:28:24 SOUTHERN PART OF THE CITY AND IN PARTS OF BRISBANE
02:28:28 AND DALY CITY AND AND WITH THAT AND WHEN YOU INDICATE IT SAN
02:28:33 FRANCISCO AND MY ASSUMPTION IS THE BOUNDARY OR CITY OF SAN
02:28:39 FRANCISCO WHICH INCLUSIVE OF PRESIDIO I DON'T BELIEVE I
02:28:47 DON'T KNOW IF THERE ARE ASSETS THAT ARE BEING ACQUIRED IN THE
02:28:52 PRESIDIO. ALL I KNOW IS THAT WE ARE NOT
02:28:53 HAVING ANY CONSTRUCT OF ANYTHING IN THE PRESIDIO SO
02:28:57 THAT'S NOT ANALYZED IN THIS DOCUMENT.
02:29:00 THE REASON WHY I'M ASKING IS ONLY SIMPLY BECAUSE I YOU KNOW,
02:29:06 I THINK UNDER THE JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL LAND FOR
02:29:09 PRESIDIO THEY'RE ACTUALLY CURRENTLY THEY HAVE RECEIVE
02:29:15 FEDERAL FUNDING FOR THE ELECTRICAL GRID UPGRADE WITHIN
02:29:19 PRESIDIO. THAT'S THE ONLY QUESTIONS I
02:29:23 IT'S THE REASON WHY I'M ASKING THAT QUESTION TO TRY TO HAVE A
02:29:24 BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF WHETHER THIS AIR INCLUSIVE OF THAT
02:29:30 EVALUATION BUT THANK YOU OKAY THANK YOU.
02:29:34 SUPERVISOR CHAN THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO'S PRESENTED WITH
02:29:39 THAT THIS HEARING HAS BEEN HELD AND IS NOW FILED AND I KNOW
02:29:46 THERE WE GO AND I HAVE COLLEAGUES WHO WANT TO MAKE
02:29:51 SOME STATEMENTS. I WILL JUST BEGIN BY SAYING
02:29:53 JUST REMINDING ALL OF US THAT WHAT IS IN FRONT OF US TODAY IS
02:29:57 THE ADEQUACY OF THIS ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW.
02:30:01 >> WE ARE FREE TO I SUPPOSE MAKE ANY STATEMENTS WE MIGHT
02:30:05 WANT TO ABOUT ABOUT THE GOODNESS OR BADNESS OF OF ANY
02:30:09 AND CERTAINLY I THINK THERE ARE SOME SHARED FRUSTRATIONS BUT I
02:30:13 THINK AS WE EVALUATE THE DOCUMENT WE'RE LOOKING AT THE
02:30:16 ADEQUACY OF THE DOCUMENT. SUPERVISOR DORSEY THANK YOU.
02:30:20 PRESIDENT RANDLEMAN AS I EXPLAINED EARLIER IT WAS MY
02:30:24 VIEW THAT PGE IS A BAD FAITH ACTOR ABUSING SQUARE WITH THIS
02:30:27 APPEAL AND NOTHING I HAVE LEARNED IN THIS HEARING CHANGES
02:30:30 THAT VIEW ON THE MERITS OF THIS APPEAL.
02:30:34 I AM CONVINCED IT'S BASELESS. I APPRECIATE THE WORK OF THE
02:30:37 PLANNING DEPARTMENT STAFF WHO REBUTTED EVERY CLAIM RAISED BY
02:30:39 PGE 21 SEPARATE RESPONSES IN MY VIEW ALL OF THEIR RESPONSES ARE
02:30:45 PERSUASIVE AMONG OTHERS. RECIRCULATION ISN'T REQUIRED AT
02:30:49 THE REQUIRED ANALYSIS HOLDS UP. THE AIR IS SOUND AND STAFF'S
02:30:53 RECOMMENDATION TO UPHOLD THE CERTIFICATION IN MY VIEW IS THE
02:30:54 RIGHT CALL. LIKEWISE I APPRECIATE THE WORK
02:30:58 OF OUR SFP UC AND OUR CITY ATTORNEY'S OFFICE AND IF I MAY
02:31:02 AT THIS TIME I WOULD MOVE TO APPROVE ITEM 36 AFFIRMING THE
02:31:05 FINAL ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT CERTIFICATION FOR
02:31:08 PROPOSED PGE ANY POWER ASSET ACQUISITION PROJECT AND TABLE
02:31:11 ITEMS 37 AND 38 SECOND SUPERVISOR DORSEY HAS MADE
02:31:20 MOTION SUPERVISOR WALTON HAS SECONDED IT AND WE WILL
02:31:24 CONTINUE DOWN THE Q SUPERVISOR MELGAR.
02:31:28 >> THANK YOU PRESIDENT. THANK YOU SUPERVISOR DORSEY I
02:31:32 HAVE SAT THROUGH I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW MANY OF YOU AIR IN AIR
02:31:40 APPEALS IN THE FIVE YEARS I SPENT AT THE PLANNING
02:31:44 COMMISSION AND NOW SIX YEARS ON THIS BOARD AS MS..
02:31:47 GIBSON KNOWS VERY WELL I CAN BE CRITICAL OF STAFF WHEN I THINK
02:31:51 THINGS ARE MISSED. I THINK THAT THIS APPEAL
02:31:55 ARGUMENT IS THE MOST RIDICULOUS I'VE SEEN ACTUALLY AND I AM
02:32:02 PROUD TO SUPPORT YOUR WORK ON THIS ONE.
02:32:07 >> I THINK IT'S ACTUALLY OVER PERFORMED WHAT WE NEEDED TO DO
02:32:11 SO THANK YOU AND I HOPE THAT MY COLLEAGUES CONCUR.
02:32:17 SUPERVISOR CHAN THANK YOU PRESIDENT AMENDMENT.
02:32:22 >> LOOK I THINKS OUR FRANCISCANS DESERVE A RELIABLE
02:32:28 AND SAFE UTILITY SYSTEM AND IN SAN FRANCISCO WE HAVE LONG
02:32:33 FOUGHT FOR CLEAN AND RENEWABLE ENERGY SOURCES WHICH WE NOW
02:32:37 HAVE AS AN OPTION FOR SAN FRANCISCANS.
02:32:40 BUT WE ALSO HAVE LONG FOUGHT FOR A MUNICIPAL POWER SYSTEM
02:32:44 AND AND THIS IS THE NEXT STEP AND WE KNOW THAT AND I WOULD
02:32:49 SAY THAT AS AN AIDE TO SUPERVISOR SOPHIE MAXWELL, WE
02:32:56 FOUGHT TO ACTUALLY WE FOUGHT GE AND CLOSED DOWN THE PATROL
02:33:00 POWER PLANT AND BECAUSE IT WAS POLLUTING ONE OF THE MOST
02:33:04 UNDERSERVED NEIGHBORHOODS IN SAN FRANCISCO AND THEN WHEN
02:33:07 I BECAME A MEMBER OF THE SAN FRANCISCO BOARD SUPERVISOR
02:33:12 AND AS THE CHAIR OF THE LOCAL LOCAL AGENCY FORMATION
02:33:16 COMMISSION, YOU KNOW, I THINK WE ALSO HAVE DONE A LOT OF THAT
02:33:20 WORK TO CONTAIN TO ENSURE THAT WE HAVE CLEAN POWER AS HAVE
02:33:23 AND HAVE A INVESTMENT AND ONGOING INVESTMENT TO HAVE
02:33:30 RENEWABLE POWER SOURCES FOR SAN FRANCISCANS AS AN OPTION
02:33:33 AND AND SINCE WE TOOK OFFICE AND I WOULD SAY THAT IS THE
02:33:38 SAME TIME AS SUPERVISOR MAL GAR AND I YOU KNOW BECAME THE NEW
02:33:42 MEMBERS OF THE BOARD WE ALREADY ATTEND TO CONTINUE TO ADVOCATE
02:33:46 FOR US TO HAVE THIS PROCESS PUT IN PLACE FOR THE NEXT STEPS SO
02:33:53 THAT WE CAN HAVE A MUNICIPAL POWERS BUT YOU KNOW WE WE
02:33:57 CONTINUE WITH THIS PROCESS IN GOOD FAITH.
02:33:58 WE'VE BEEN GOING THROUGH THIS PROCESS IN GOOD FAITH.
02:34:01 SAN FRANCISCO ACTUALLY MADE THAT OFFER EVEN WHEN MAYOR BREA
02:34:04 WAS STILL OUR MAYOR TO PGE AND E AGAIN, I THINK THAT WE
02:34:08 HAVE DONE ALL A LOT OF WORK IN GOOD FAITH TO TO BE WHERE
02:34:12 WE'RE AT TODAY. BUT I THINK LAST DECEMBER
02:34:15 THOUGH WHEN WE HAVE THE OUT IN SAN FRANCISCO IT WAS VERY
02:34:19 CLEAR TO US I THINK ME CERTAINLY AS A AS A MEMBER OF
02:34:26 ON THE BOARD BUT ALSO REPRESENTING THE RICHMOND THAT
02:34:30 WE EXPERIENCING SIGNIFICANT BLACKOUT AND WHAT IT TELL ME
02:34:34 AND TO ALL OF US ACTUALLY ALSO EVEN THROUGH THE INDEPENDENT
02:34:35 REPORT IS THAT THE THE UTILITY INFRASTRUCTURE FAILED US THE P,
02:34:42 G AND E UTILITIES INFRASTRUCTURE FAILED US AND I
02:34:45 THINK WE NEED TO CONTINUE ON THIS PROCESS OF TRYING TO
02:34:49 FIGURE OUT THE CONDITION OF THE INFRASTRUCTURE AND THIS AIR
02:34:56 BEFORE US TODAY AS A FINAL DRAFT I THINK IT'S REASONABLE
02:35:00 AND SOUND AND IT'S IN GOOD FAITH OF WHAT THE CITY HAS BEEN
02:35:01 DOING. WE'VE BEEN TRANSPARENT ABOUT
02:35:04 THIS PROCESS, HAVE BEEN THROUGH A PUBLIC COMMENT PROCESS AND SO
02:35:07 FOR ME AGAIN THE AIR JUST HELP US TO GATHER THOSE EVIDENCE TO
02:35:16 SAY HOW CAN WE IMPROVE OUR INFRASTRUCTURE, HELP US
02:35:20 UNDERSTAND THE CONDITION OF WHERE WE'RE AT.
02:35:23 SO I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN P, G AND E FOR APPEALING THIS
02:35:27 ALTOGETHER. I CONCUR WITH SUPERVISOR MAL
02:35:28 GAR SENTIMENT THAT YOU KNOW, I WOULD HOPE THAT P G IS MORE OF
02:35:35 A PARTNER IN THIS ESPECIALLY AFTER WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
02:35:39 LAST DECEMBER BUT AND YET HERE WE ARE.
02:35:42 I THINK THAT THE AIR ACTUALLY IS NOT ONLY A GOOD FAITH
02:35:46 EFFORT, IT'S ALSO A FACT FINDING EFFORT.
02:35:47 I WISH IN OF COURSE IN REALITY I WISH THAT WE HAVE MORE
02:35:53 INFORMATION THAT WE CAN GET DOWN TO A PROJECT DETAILS.
02:35:58 BUT IF WE WERE TO ACTUALLY ALSO THINK THAT P G SEEMS LIKE HAVE
02:36:03 BEEN RELUCTANT PROVIDING US INFORMATION NECESSARY FOR US TO
02:36:07 GET TO THAT LEVEL TO SO I THINK THE CITY IS IN GOOD FAITH AGAIN
02:36:11 DOING WHAT WE CAN TO GET TO WHERE WE'RE AT.
02:36:14 >> SO I THINK WE WILL CLEARLY MORE NEEDS TO BE DONE.
02:36:19 CLEARLY MORE INFORMATION WE WILL NEED AND NOT ONLY THAT I
02:36:23 WOULD SAY AS THE FORMER BUDGET COMMITTEE CHAIR AND WHICH I'M
02:36:27 REALLY GRATEFUL NOW WE HAVE CHAIR DORSEY AS OUR CHAIR BUT I
02:36:30 WOULD SAY THAT WE SHARE THE CONCERNS WITH THE CITY THAT
02:36:35 SUFFERING BUDGET DEFICIT WELL A LOT THAT WE NEED TO TACKLE FOR
02:36:39 THE CITY IN ORDER TO TAKE THAT STEPS TO ACQUISITIONS OF THE
02:36:45 INFRASTRUCTURE. WE REALLY WANT TO KNOW THE
02:36:49 CONDITION OF THE GRID AND THE INVESTMENTS ARE POTENTIAL
02:36:53 INVESTMENTS OF THE GRID. WE WANT TO DO THIS IN THE BEST
02:36:55 INTERESTS OF SAN FRANCISCANS. >> WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE
02:36:59 DO THIS RIGHT BY OUR CITY. AND I JUST ALSO HAVE NO DOUBT
02:37:02 THOUGH IT SHOULD AND WHEN WE TAKE THAT STATUS WE WILL
02:37:06 REQUIRE ADDITIONAL RESOURCES BOTH ACTUALLY FROM A STATE
02:37:10 AND LIKELY FEDERAL FUNDING SOURCES TO BE ABLE TO GET US TO
02:37:17 THAT FINISH LINE. >> SO I THINK THAT THIS IS JUST
02:37:21 ANOTHER STEPPING STONE TO WHERE WE NEED TO BE IS THE REASON WHY
02:37:25 TODAY I AM VOTING IN SUPPORT OF SUPERVISOR DORSEY'S MOTION TO
02:37:29 MAKE SURE THAT WE AFFIRM THIS ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT REPORT
02:37:34 AND GET TO WHERE WE NEED TO GO NEXT.
02:37:37 >> THANK YOU. SUPERVISOR MAHMOOD DON'T REPEAT
02:37:41 WHAT WAS ALREADY SAID BUT IT'S ONE TO AFFIRM THE WASTE OF
02:37:45 TIME. THAT'S REZA DORSEY NOTED THIS
02:37:48 AND TO GIVE AN EXAMPLE ALSO A WASTE OF TIME.
02:37:49 UNFORTUNATELY FOR OUR STAFF IN THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT AS
02:37:52 WELL IN THE AIR THERE WAS A DISCUSSION ABOUT THE CROTCHES
02:37:57 BUMBLEBEE AND I THINK IT'S RIDICULOUS THAT HOW THIS
02:38:00 ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW PROCESS WAS WEAPONIZED TO HAVE THE
02:38:04 STAFF NOT ONCE BUT TWICE TRIED TO VERIFY WHETHER THE IT'S A
02:38:08 WEIRD THING TO EVEN SAY OUT LOUD THE CROTCH IS BUMBLEBEE
02:38:11 WAS GOING TO BE IMPACTED BY THIS THING AND I WAS LOOKING
02:38:15 THROUGH THE NOTES IN RESPONSE TO THE FINAL AIR THE BEE HAS
02:38:20 ONLY BEEN HAS BEEN SPOTTED AS CLOSE TO SAN FRANCISCO AND PALO
02:38:23 ALTO. THE LAST SIGHTING WAS OVER A
02:38:26 100 YEARS AGO. ITS NATURAL HABITAT IS VERY
02:38:29 DIFFERENT FROM THIS ENVIRONMENT AND THIS PROJECT'S AREA SO I
02:38:34 DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH TIME YOU GUYS SPENT TRYING TO FIND THE
02:38:35 CROTCH BUMBLEBEE BUT I'M SORRY AND I'M GLAD THAT THIS HEARING
02:38:38 IS OVER SO I THINK THIS LACK OF CONCERN FOR THE BUMBLEBEE IS
02:38:45 TROUBLING. >> SO ALL RIGHT.
02:38:47 WE HAVE A MOTION ON THE FLOOR FROM SUPERVISOR DORSEY.
02:38:52 IT HAS BEEN SECONDED BY SUPERVISOR R WALTON.
02:38:56 >> MADAM CLERK, CAN YOU PLEASE CALL THE ROLL ON THE MOTION TO
02:39:02 APPROVE ITEM 36 AND TABLE ITEMS 37 AND 38 SUPERVISOR CHEN CHEN
02:39:09 I SUPERVISOR DORSEY DORSEY I SUPERVISOR FIELDER FIELDER I

02:39:49 TABLED. >> ALL RIGHT MADAM CLERK LET'S
02:39:53 GO BACK TO ROLL CALL NEXT MEMBER TO INTRODUCE NEW
02:39:56 BUSINESS IS SUPERVISOR FIELDER THANK YOU MADAM CLERK
02:40:00 COLLEAGUES TODAY I HAVE TWO ORDINANCES.
02:40:03 FIRST I'M INTRODUCING LEGISLATION TO SUPPORT
02:40:06 MICROENTERPRISE HOME KITCHEN OPERATIONS OR MCOS AS OUR
02:40:11 STREET FOOD VENDORS ARE AN IMPORTANT PART OF SAN
02:40:12 FRANCISCO'S CULTURAL IDENTITY AND LOCAL ECONOMY THEY BRING
02:40:15 DIVERSE AND CULTURALLY MEANINGFUL FOOD TO OUR
02:40:18 NEIGHBORHOODS, MAKE OUR PUBLIC SPACES MORE VIBRANT AND HELP
02:40:22 CREATE PLACES WHERE PEOPLE WANT TO GATHER, EAT AND SUPPORT
02:40:23 LOCAL BUSINESSES. MANY OF SAN FRANCISCO'S VENDORS
02:40:27 ARE MINORITY OWNED BUSINESSES THAT THEN CONTRIBUTE TO
02:40:30 NEIGHBORHOOD ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT WHILE PRESERVING
02:40:34 THE CULINARY TRADITIONS THAT MAKE OUR CITY UNIQUE.
02:40:35 BUT WE KNOW THESE ENTREPRENEURS FACE SIGNIFICANT BARRIERS.
02:40:38 OPERATING A BRICK AND MORTAR BUSINESS CAN BE EXPENSIVE WITH
02:40:42 COSTS FOR PERMITS, LICENSES, INSURANCE EQUIPMENT, COMMERCIAL
02:40:47 COMMISSARY KITCHENS AND OTHER ONGOING EXPENSES.
02:40:50 THESE COSTS CAN ADD UP TO MORE THAN $1 MILLION AND CAN MAKE IT
02:40:54 DIFFICULT FOR ENTREPRENEURS WITH LIMITED ACCESS TO CAPITAL
02:40:57 TO ENTER THE FORMAL FOOD ECONOMY.
02:40:58 WE SHOULD BE CREATING PATHWAYS FOR SUCCESSFUL SMALL FOOD
02:41:02 BUSINESSES TO GROW NOT PUTTING THOSE PATHWAYS OUT OF REACH.
02:41:05 THAT IS WHERE MAKOS CAN OFFER A PRACTICAL SOLUTION.
02:41:09 CALIFORNIA LAW PROVIDES A LEGAL PATHWAY FOR QUALIFYING SMALL
02:41:12 FOOD ENTREPRENEURS TO PREPARE AND SELL MEALS FROM THEIR HOME
02:41:14 KITCHENS WHILE MEETING STATE FOOD SAFETY REQUIREMENTS FOR
02:41:20 STREET VENDORS OPERATING COMPACT MOBILE FOOD OPERATIONS
02:41:21 OR CMA. >> THOSE COMMISSARY KITCHENS
02:41:25 CAN BE A SIGNIFICANT RECURRING EXPENSE IN SAN FRANCISCO THOSE
02:41:28 COSTS CAN EXCEED $1,000 PER MONTH.
02:41:31 THIS LEGISLATION ALLOWS QUALIFYING HOME KITCHENS TO
02:41:35 SUPPORT CMF OPERATIONS TO HELP REDUCE OVERHEAD AND MAKE IT
02:41:39 EASIER FOR SMALL VENDORS TO REMAIN IN BUSINESS.
02:41:40 THE BOTTOM LINE IS SIMPLE STREET VENDORS ARE SMALL
02:41:43 BUSINESSES, THEY ARE ENTREPRENEURS AND THEY ARE AN
02:41:47 IMPORTANT PART OF OUR NEIGHBORHOODS AND OUR CULTURE.
02:41:51 >> IF WE WANT A SAN FRANCISCO WHERE SMALL HOME BASED
02:41:54 BUSINESSES CAN START, GROW AND THRIVE, WE NEED TO CREATE
02:41:58 PRACTICAL PATHWAYS THAT MAKE THAT POSSIBLE.
02:42:01 MCOS CAN BE ONE TOOL TO REDUCE BARRIERS SUPPORT IMMIGRANT
02:42:05 ENTREPRENEURS, STRENGTHEN OUR SMALL BUSINESS ECONOMY
02:42:09 AND PRESERVE THE FOOD CULTURE THAT MAKES SAN FRANCISCO
02:42:10 UNIQUE. >> THANK YOU TO MY COLLEAGUES
02:42:13 SUPERVISORS MELGAR WALTON, MAHMOOD CHAN AND CHEN FOR YOUR
02:42:14 EARLY CO-SPONSORSHIP. THANK YOU TO MY CHIEF OF STAFF
02:42:18 SASHA GARDNER AND DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY MARK SHARP FOR YOUR
02:42:21 WORK ON THIS ORDINANCE. >> DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH
02:42:25 ENVIRONMENTAL DIVISION FOR YOUR GUIDANCE AND THANKS TO THE COOK
02:42:27 ALLIANCE, THE FOOD VENDORS COMMITTEE AND MEDHA FOR YOUR
02:42:30 ADVOCACY FOR MANY YEARS FOR THIS PROGRAM AND NEXT.
02:42:34 >> COLLEAGUES, WE'VE HAD A LOT OF DISCUSSION ABOUT THE OPEN
02:42:38 GOVT CONTRACT BEFORE PASSING AN EXTENSION FOR ANOTHER THREE
02:42:41 YEARS. GOING FORWARD WE NEED TO
02:42:42 IMPROVE OUR PROCESSES FOR BIDDING OUT LARGE CONTRACTS FOR
02:42:46 SOFTWARE. BE A REPORT I COMMISSION FOUND
02:42:49 THAT THE OPEN GOV SELECTION PROCESS DID NOT VIOLATE CITY
02:42:52 REQUIREMENTS. HOWEVER IT DID NOT CONFORM TO
02:42:53 BEST PRACTICES OR TYPICAL CITY PRACTICE IN PROCUREMENT.
02:42:57 THE BMJ RECOMMENDED THAT WE REQUEST THAT THE CITY
02:43:01 ADMINISTRATOR'S OFFICE UPDATE THE CHAPTER 21 RULES
02:43:03 AND REGULATIONS FOR SECTION 21.30.
02:43:06 SOLICITATION WAIVERS FOR SOFTWARE TO PROVIDE GUIDANCE TO
02:43:10 DEPARTMENTS ON WHEN THEY SHOULD CONSIDER COMPETITIVE
02:43:11 SOLICITATIONS INSTEAD OF SOLICITATION WAIVERS.
02:43:14 THAT IS WHAT THIS LEGISLATION IS.
02:43:18 >> TECHNOLOGY CONTRACTS THAT SEEK AN ADMIN CODE 2130 WAIVER
02:43:21 REPRESENT A SMALL PERCENTAGE OF THE TECHNOLOGY CONTRACTS THAT
02:43:23 THE CITY HAS MOST TECHNOLOGIES PROCURED THROUGH THE CITY'S
02:43:26 TECHNOLOGY MARKETPLACE AND ENTERPRISE CONTRACTS WHICH
02:43:30 ARE COMPETITIVELY BID. >> RECENT CONCERNS AROUND THE
02:43:33 PROCUREMENT OF OPEN GOVT SERVICES FOR PERMANENCE OF GAVE
02:43:36 US AN OPPORTUNITY TO TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT OUR TECHNOLOGY
02:43:40 WAIVERS. >> WE FOUND THAT WE ARE NOT
02:43:41 USING THE SAME STANDARDS AS MANY OTHER OTHER GOVERNMENT
02:43:45 AGENCIES. THE AMENDMENTS I'M INTRODUCING
02:43:48 TODAY BRING US INTO ALIGNMENT WITH STATE AND FEDERAL POLICIES
02:43:49 FOR GRANTING TECHNOLOGY WAIVERS TO COMMERCIALLY OFF THE SHELF
02:43:52 PRODUCTS. >> THIS ORDINANCE ISN'T JUST
02:43:56 ABOUT GOOD GOVERNANCE. IT ENSURES CITY OFFICIALS CAN
02:43:59 DO THEIR JOBS RESPONSIBLY. THANK YOU TO MY COLLEAGUES
02:44:00 SUPERVISOR CHAN WALTON AND CHEN FOR CO-SPONSORING THIS
02:44:04 LEGISLATION. I ALSO WANT TO THANK OCA CITY
02:44:07 PURCHASERS SAGE LA CORELLA AND DEPUTY MOLLY PETERSON.
02:44:11 DEPUTY CITY ADMINISTRATOR STEPHANIE TANG AND STAFF ANGELA
02:44:15 YIP. MY FORMER AIDE SHEILA CHUNG
02:44:16 HAGEN AND DEPUTY CITY ATTORNEY GUS SQUIBB FOR WORKING WITH US
02:44:20 ON THIS LEGISLATION. >> THE REST I SUBMIT.
02:44:27 >> THANK YOU. SUPERVISOR FIELDER SUPERVISOR
02:44:28 MY POINT TODAY I HAVE AN IN MIRIAM COLLEAGUES AS IT IS
02:44:32 MY SOLEMN HONOR TO RECOGNIZE APRIL ANNETTE CLAY A PROUD SAN
02:44:35 FRANCISCO NATIVE BELOVED MOTHER ,GRANDMOTHER, TALENTED
02:44:39 HAIRSTYLIST AND A WOMAN WHOSE GENEROSITY AND LARGER THAN LIFE
02:44:43 PERSONALITY LEFT AN IMPRESSION ON EVERYONE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO
02:44:47 KNOW HER. >> APRIL WAS A TRUE SAN
02:44:48 FRANCISCAN AND THE FILLMORE WAS WHERE SHE CALLED HOME.
02:44:51 >> IT WAS THERE THAT SHE BUILT RELATIONSHIP UPS AND REMAINED
02:44:55 CONNECTED TO THE PEOPLE AND CULTURE THAT MADE SAN
02:44:56 FRANCISCO FEEL LIKE HOME. >> SHE CARRIED THOSE
02:44:59 CONNECTIONS THROUGHOUT HER LIFE AND THEY WERE REFLECTED IN THE
02:45:03 WAY THAT SHE MADE EVERYONE AROUND HER FEEL LIKE THEY
02:45:04 BELONGED. >> AS A GIRL, APRIL SHE
02:45:07 ATTENDED ROOFTOP ELEMENTARY ROOSEVELT MIDDLE SCHOOL
02:45:10 AND LATER GEORGE WASHINGTON HIGH SCHOOL WHERE SHE WAS A
02:45:14 TALENTED TRACK ATHLETE WHO EVEN BROKE A SCHOOL RECORD.
02:45:16 >> THAT DETERMINATION AND COMPETITIVE SPIRIT WOULD
02:45:19 STAY WITH HER LONG AFTER HER RUNNING DAYS WERE OVER.
02:45:23 >> IF YOU KNEW APRIL THEN YOU KNEW HER HOW HER HAIR WAS PART
02:45:26 OF APRIL'S LIFE FROM THE VERY BEGINNING.
02:45:28 SHE GREW UP IN A FAMILY WHERE HAIRSTYLING WAS A TRADITION
02:45:31 AND SHE INHERITED THAT LOVE AND TALENT FROM HER GRANDMOTHER
02:45:34 OLIVIA CLAY. AFTER WORKING IN RETAIL, APRIL
02:45:38 FOLLOWED THAT PATH THAT HAD BEEN CALLING HER SINCE
02:45:39 CHILDHOOD. SHE ATTENDED MISS MARTY.
02:45:42 MISS MARTIN'S BEAUTY SCHOOL BECAME A LICENSED HAIRSTYLIST
02:45:46 AND CONTINUED DEVELOPING HER CRAFT UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF
02:45:47 BROWNIE SIMS BEFORE BUILDING A CAREER AT HAIR PLACE SALON
02:45:51 WHERE SHE SPENT MORE THAN 25 YEARS.
02:45:54 >> BUT APRIL'S WORK WAS NEVER JUST ABOUT HAIR.
02:45:58 ANYONE WHO SAT IN HER CHAIR KNOWS THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE COME
02:46:02 IN FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT BUT YOU WERE LEAVING WITH A GOOD STORY
02:46:05 AND TEARS IN YOUR EYES FROM LAUGHING TO HEART.
02:46:06 >> APRIL HAD A GIFT FOR MAKING PEOPLE FEEL BEAUTIFUL.
02:46:10 BUT PERHAPS MORE IMPORTANTLY SHE HAD A GIFT FOR MAKING
02:46:13 PEOPLE FEEL LIKE THEY MATTERED. >> AND THAT WAS APRIL.
02:46:16 >> IT WAS SAID SHE NEVER MET A STRANGER, ONLY FRIENDS SHE
02:46:18 HADN'T MET YET. SHE HAD AN ENERGY THAT COULD
02:46:21 FILL A ROOM AND SHE HAD A STORY FOR JUST ABOUT EVERYTHING.
02:46:24 PERHAPS ONE OF THE MOST MEMORABLE STORIES THAT WE HEARD
02:46:28 WAS THAT HER INSISTENCE THAT MICHAEL JACKSON WAS HER FIRST
02:46:29 BOYFRIEND. >> NOW WHETHER MICHAEL KNEW
02:46:32 ABOUT THIS RELATIONSHIP IS ANOTHER STORY.
02:46:36 BUT APRIL CERTAINLY DID. AND WITH SO MUCH CONFIDENCE
02:46:40 IN HER TELLING, IT'S HARD TO NOT SEE THE TRUTH IN SUCH A
02:46:41 CLAIM. AFTER ALL, WHO ARE WE TO REALLY
02:46:45 SPECULATE? >> APRIL ALSO KNEW HOW TO ENJOY
02:46:48 LIFE. SHE LOVED SHOPPING, TRAVELING,
02:46:49 MAKEUP AND ALL THINGS BEAUTY. SHE HAD AN INSTINCT FOR STYLE
02:46:53 AND GOOD FOOD AND SHE WAS ALWAYS THE FIRST PERSON TO
02:46:56 OFFER DINNER RECOMMENDATIONS BEFORE ANY SOCIAL MEDIA FOOD
02:46:59 INFLUENCERS HAD CAUGHT WIND. BUT I MISSED HER PERFECTLY OF
02:47:04 STYLE, HUMOR AND TASTE FOR THE FINER THINGS IN LIFE.
02:47:05 >> APRIL'S GREATEST GIFT TO THE WORLD WAS HER HEART.
02:47:09 >> SHE WAS GENEROUS AND DEEPLY COMMITTED TO THE PEOPLE SHE
02:47:12 LOVED. >> SHE WAS THE KIND OF PERSON
02:47:13 WHO WOULD GIVE YOU THE SHIRT OFF HER BACK.
02:47:15 >> AND NOWHERE WAS THAT LOVE MORE EVIDENT THAN IN HER
02:47:19 FAMILY. APRIL'S CHILDREN JANIECE
02:47:20 BRITTNEY AND DEVIN WERE AMONG THE MOST MEANINGFUL CHAPTERS OF
02:47:23 HER LIFE. SHE WAS FIERCELY PROUD OF THEM
02:47:27 AND DEEPLY DEVOTED TO BEING THEIR MOTHER.
02:47:30 SHE WAS ALSO A BELOVED CLIMBER TO HER GRANDDAUGHTER CRUM.
02:47:34 EMBRACING ALL OF THE LOVE AND WISDOM THAT CAME WITH THE
02:47:35 ROLE. >> TODAY WE MOURN THE LOSS OF A
02:47:39 WOMAN WHO WAS TRULY ONE OF A KIND.
02:47:42 >> BUT WE ALSO CELEBRATE THE LIFE THAT SHE LIVED AND THE
02:47:45 COUNTLESS PEOPLE WERE BETTER FOR HAVING KNOWN HER.
02:47:46 >> APRIL LEAVES BEHIND MORE THAN MEMORIES AND SHE LEAVES
02:47:49 BEHIND HER FAMILY THE FRIENDSHIPS SHE BUILT, THE
02:47:53 PEOPLE SHE WELCOMED INTO HER CHAIR THE STORIES SHE TOLD
02:47:56 AND SO MUCH LAUGHTER THAT WILL CARRY HER SPIRIT IN THE YEARS
02:47:58 TO COME. >> APRIL, THANK YOU FOR SHOWING
02:48:01 US HOW TO LOVE FULLY AND THE DAILY ACT OF STAYING TRUE TO
02:48:04 YOURSELF. MAY YOU REST IN POWER AND MAY
02:48:06 YOUR MEMORY CONTINUE TO BRING SO MUCH LAUGHTER AND JOY TO
02:48:08 EVERYONE WHO HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF KNOWING YOU.
02:48:11 >> THE REST I SUBMIT. THANK YOU.
02:48:12 SUPERVISOR MAHMOOD SUPERVISOR RANDLEMAN THANK YOU, MADAM
02:48:16 CLERK. I HAVE A RESOLUTION OR A
02:48:23 RESOLUTION TODAY AND A HEARING REQUEST.
02:48:27 FIRST I'M INTRODUCING A RESOLUTION TO INITIATE LANDMARK
02:48:28 DESIGNATION FOR THE REKA VALLEY COMMERCIAL AND CASTRO VILLAGE
02:48:32 LGBTQ PLUS HISTORIC DISTRICT. LAST DECEMBER THIS BOARD PASSED
02:48:38 THE FAMILY ZONING PLAN THE MOST SIGNIFICANT CHANGE TO THE
02:48:40 CITY'S HOUSING RULES IN A GENERATION.
02:48:43 I SUPPORTED THAT PLAN AS I HAVE SUPPORTED OTHER EFFORTS TO EASE
02:48:47 AND ENCOURAGE NEW HOUSING DEVELOPMENT BECAUSE SAN
02:48:50 FRANCISCO NEEDS TENS OF THOUSANDS OF NEW UNITS TO
02:48:53 COMBAT THE AFFORDABILITY CRISIS.
02:48:54 BUT CONTRARY TO THE OVER-THE-TOP REACTION OF SOME
02:48:58 ACTIVISTS TO THIS PROPOSED DESIGNATION MEETING OUR HOUSING
02:49:01 NEEDS DOES NOT REQUIRE SACRIFICING IRREPLACEABLE
02:49:03 PIECES OF OUR CITY'S HISTORY. MOST SAN FRANCISCANS SUPPORT
02:49:07 BUILDING MORE HOUSING. MOST SAN FRANCISCANS ALSO
02:49:11 SUPPORT IDENTIFY ING AND PRESERVING OUR MOST
02:49:15 HISTORICALLY SIGNIFICANT BUILDINGS.
02:49:18 AND MOST SAN FRANCISCANS RECOGNIZE THAT WE CAN DO BOTH.
02:49:22 >> TO THAT END, MY OFFICE HAS WORKED WITH THE PLANNING
02:49:23 DEPARTMENT OVER THE PAST YEAR TO IDENTIFY THE BUILDINGS
02:49:26 IN DISTRICT EIGHT THAT ARE TRULY IRREPLACEABLE.
02:49:29 ALL THIS LANDMARK DISTRICT IS A PRODUCT OF THAT WORK.
02:49:32 THE PROPOSED DISTRICT INCLUDES BEAUX ARTS AND CLASSICAL
02:49:37 REVIVAL BANK BUILDINGS, MEDITERRANEAN REVIVAL AND ARTS
02:49:39 AND CRAFTS STOREFRONTS AND GOTHIC REVIVAL DETAILING
02:49:42 AND RECOGNIZED AS TWO PERIODS OF SIGNIFICANCE.
02:49:46 THE FIRST IS EARLY COMMERCIAL DEVELOPMENT FROM 1879 TO 1932
02:49:51 WHEN EUREKA VALLEY GREW FROM A SCATTERING OF FARMHOUSES INTO A
02:49:56 STREETCAR SUBURB. THE SECOND RUNS FROM 1953 TO
02:49:59 1980 WHEN THE CASTRO BECAME THE CENTER OF GAY POLITICAL
02:50:02 AND CULTURAL LIFE IN AMERICA. OF THE 64 BUILDINGS
02:50:06 CONTRIBUTING TO THE DISTRICT, 33 OF THEM CARRY BOTH HISTORIES
02:50:09 IN THE SAME WALLS. LET'S ALSO BE CLEAR ON ONE
02:50:13 POINT LANDMARK DESIGNATION PROTECTS THE CHARACTER DEFINING
02:50:16 FEATURES OF THE BUILDING BUT DOES NOT BAR DEVELOPMENT OR
02:50:20 MAINTENANCE OF A SITE. SAN FRANCISCO APPROVES UPPER
02:50:24 STORY ADDITIONS TO LANDMARKED BUILDINGS ROUTINELY IN THE
02:50:25 DOGPATCH AND ALAMO SQUARE HISTORIC DISTRICTS AMONG
02:50:29 OTHERS. SO LONG AS THE NEW CONSTRUCTION
02:50:32 IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE BUILDING BELOW IT.
02:50:34 AND ONE MORE POINT I AND OTHERS HAVE MADE BUT WHICH BEARS
02:50:38 REPEATING JUST ABOUT 1% OF SAN FRANCISCO'S APPROXIMATELY
02:50:42 200,000 BUILDINGS ARE CURRENTLY LOCALLY DESIGNATED LANDMARKS OR
02:50:46 CONTRIBUTORS IN HISTORIC DISTRICTS.
02:50:47 THAT'S SIGNIFICANTLY LESS THAN THE 3 TO 5% OF BUILDINGS THAT
02:50:51 ARE DESIGNATED LANDMARKS IN NEW YORK, BOSTON AND L.A..
02:50:55 AND WHATEVER YOU THINK OF THAT COMPARISON, 63 ADDITIONAL
02:50:59 STRUCTURES IS A DROP IN THE PROVERBIAL BUCKET.
02:51:03 >> THE RESOLUTION ASKS THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION
02:51:06 COMMISSION AND THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT TO STUDY THESE
02:51:09 BUILDINGS AND REPORT BACK FOR OUR CONSIDERATION AN ORDINANCE
02:51:13 RECOGNIZING THE HISTORIC DISTRICT.
02:51:17 I WANT TO THANK RICH SUE, ALEX WESTHOFF AND ALL THE
02:51:18 PRESERVATION STAFF AT THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT FOR THE
02:51:21 TIME AND RESEARCH THEY'VE PUT INTO THIS PROPOSED DISTRICT.
02:51:24 I ALSO WANT TO THANK S.F. HERITAGE AND THE CASTRO LGBTQ
02:51:26 PLUS CULTURAL DISTRICT FOR THEIR SUPPORT.
02:51:29 AND FINALLY I WANT TO THANK LBJ IN MY OFFICE FOR HIS WORK.
02:51:35 >> COLLEAGUES, I'M ALSO CALLING FOR WHAT WILL BE MY SIXTH
02:51:42 HEARING ON A TREATMENT ON DEMAND REPORTS.
02:51:49 THIS YEAR'S TREATMENT ONDEMAND REPORT WAS RELEASED ON
02:51:51 SEPTEMBER THIRD, 2026 AND THE THING THAT HAS STRUCK ME ABOUT
02:51:58 THIS REPORT ONE THING THAT STRIKES STRIKES ME IS SOME OF
02:52:04 THE TROUBLING DATA IN THERE. FOR EXAMPLE, THE REPORT
02:52:08 IDENTIFIES THAT JUST 59% OF FOLKS SEEKING SEEKING
02:52:14 WITHDRAWAL MANAGEMENT ARE ABLE TO ACCESS THAT THE DEAD THE DAY
02:52:19 THEY'RE SEEKING IT OR THE DAY AFTER WHICH IS NOT A GOOD
02:52:22 NUMBER AND IS NOT TREATMENT ON DEMAND.
02:52:26 WHAT I APPRECIATE ABOUT THIS REPORT IS THAT THIS IS THE
02:52:29 FIRST REPORT I HAVE SEEN THAT CLEARLY GIVES US THIS
02:52:33 INFORMATION. AND AS I SAID, I HAVE HAD THIS
02:52:35 HEARING AT LEAST FIVE TIMES BEFORE AND THE DEPARTMENT HAS
02:52:38 PRODUCED OVER YOU KNOW, MORE THAN WELL OVER ABOUT 20 YEARS,
02:52:45 YOU KNOW, ALMOST TWO DOZEN OF THESE REPORTS.
02:52:46 >> SO I THINK IT IS TO THE CREDIT OF THIS DIRECTOR OF THE
02:52:52 DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC HEALTH DANIEL CY THAT THIS REPORT
02:52:55 FINALLY BEGINS TO GRAPPLE WITH THE HARD REALITIES THAT I THINK
02:52:59 WE ARE NOT CLOSE TO MEETING TREATMENT ON DEMAND BUT ALSO
02:53:03 BEGINS TO SHOW WHAT IT WOULD LOOK LIKE OR THE AREAS THAT WE
02:53:07 NEED TO FOCUS ON TO CLOSE THAT THAT DISTURBING GAP.
02:53:14 I THINK THAT'S WHAT THE CRAFTERS OF TREATMENT ON DEMAND
02:53:15 WANTED WAY BACK IN THE AUGHTS. AND I THINK IT'S A POSITIVE
02:53:21 THING THAT WE'RE GETTING HONESTY OUT OF IT AND THAT
02:53:25 GIVES US A FOUNDATION TO BUILD ON ANYWAY.
02:53:28 I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT HEARING AND I'M GRATEFUL FOR
02:53:32 THE WORK THAT FOLKS HAVE DONE TO GIVE US A REPORT THAT'S
02:53:34 ACTUALLY MORE USABLE. THANKS, CHAIR.
02:53:39 SAUDER FOR FINDING TIME FOR THIS HEARING.
02:53:40 SANCHEZ THANK YOU, SUPERVISOR DORSEY FOR YOUR EARLY
02:53:44 CO-SPONSORSHIP OF THE HEARING AND THE REST I SUBMIT.

02:55:08 EPIDEMIC. I WANT TO THANK THE AWESOME

02:57:01 PROPOSALS THIS YEAR. THE REST I SUBMIT.
02:57:04 THANK THANK YOU. SUPERVISOR MELGAR SUPERVISOR
02:57:06 SAUTER THANK YOU MADAM CLERK. COLLEAGUES, I HAVE THE HONOR OF
02:57:11 BOTH REPRESENTING AND LIVING IN ONE OF OUR CITY'S MOST
02:57:13 SPECIAL NEIGHBORHOODS NORTH BEACH.
02:57:16 AND ANYONE WHO SPENDS EVEN A FEW MINUTES IN NORTH BEACH CAN
02:57:20 FEEL ITS HISTORY AT EVERY TURN. THE LONGTIME INSTITUTIONS THAT
02:57:24 HAVE SERVED THE COMMUNITY BE AT SAINTS PETER AND PAUL'S CHURCH.
02:57:26 THE SOLUTIONS CLUB SHAPING GENERATIONS OF FAMILIES GROWING
02:57:28 UP IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. >> THE ITALIAN ATHLETIC CLUB
02:57:31 SERVING AS A BEDROCK FOR OUR ITALIAN COMMUNITY.
02:57:35 >> CULINARY ICONS LIKE LIGURIA BAKERY, FJORD D'ITALIA,
02:57:39 AMERICA'S OLDEST ITALIAN RESTAURANT THE WEST COAST FIRST
02:57:43 ESPRESSO BASED COFFEE HOUSE CAFE TRUST THE IMPASSIONED
02:57:47 YEARS OF THE BEATNIK MOVEMENT WHO BROUGHT NAMES LIKE KEROUAC
02:57:50 ,GINSBERG, CASSIDY FERLINGHETTI TO OUR CAFES
02:57:51 AND STREET CORNERS AND LEFT US WITH CITY LIGHTS BOOKSTORE.
02:57:57 THE INGENUITY AND CREATIVITY OF WAVES OF PEOPLE WHO SETTLED
02:58:01 AND MADE THEIR MARK. FIRST AS THE LATIN QUARTER
02:58:03 AND LITERATURE. AND THEN LITTLE ITALY HOME TO
02:58:06 SOME OF US. AND THEN HOME TO SAN
02:58:10 FRANCISCO'S FIRST GAY AND LESBIAN BARS.
02:58:13 AND OF COURSE THE PEOPLE WHO HAVE WALKED THE STREETS
02:58:14 AND SHAPED OUR CITY ALONG THE WAY.
02:58:17 THE YANKEE CLIPPER JOLTIN JOE JOE DIMAGGIO EMERGING FROM A
02:58:22 FLAT ON TAYLOR STREET LEARNING TO PLAY BASEBALL AT NORTH BEACH
02:58:25 PLAYGROUND BECOMING ONE OF BASEBALL'S GREATEST PLAYERS.
02:58:28 NOT TO MENTION HIS MARRIAGE TO MARILYN MONROE OFFICIATED ON
02:58:33 THE THIRD FLOOR OF THIS VERY BUILDING.
02:58:34 OR A PAGANINI, A MAN WHO ALWAYS LOOKED OUT FOR THE LITTLE
02:58:37 FELLOW. IT WAS AP WHO GAVE OUT THE
02:58:40 FIRST LOANS AFTER THE 1906 EARTHQUAKE TO REBUILD OUR CITY
02:58:44 MOSTLY BY HANDSHAKE DEALS MOSTLY TO WORKING CLASS ITALIAN
02:58:47 IMMIGRANTS. HE MADE A CAREER BY FINANCING
02:58:51 THOSE WHO OTHERS IGNORED STEPPING IN TO SAVE AN UNKNOWN
02:58:54 ARTIST NAMED WALT DISNEY WHO WAS OUT OF CASH AND A LITTLE
02:58:58 STRUCTURE KNOWN AS THE GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE WHEN IT WAS STUCK.
02:59:02 >> AND SO IT IS FOR THESE REASONS AND MANY MORE THAT I
02:59:05 FIRMLY BELIEVE NORTH BEACH HAS LONG BEEN WORTHY OF BEING
02:59:07 DESIGNATED AS A HISTORIC DISTRICT.
02:59:10 THAT IS WHY TODAY I AM INTRODUCING AN INITIATING
02:59:14 RESOLUTION TO CREATE THE NORTH BEACH HISTORIC DISTRICT.
02:59:17 IF APPROVED, THE NORTH BEACH HISTORIC DISTRICT WOULD BE ONLY
02:59:21 SAN FRANCISCO'S 17TH. ARTICLE TEN HISTORIC DISTRICT
02:59:24 AND THE FIRST CREATED IN DISTRICT THREE SINCE 1986
02:59:29 THAT UNDERSCORES THE RARE NATURE IN WHICH THIS
02:59:31 DESIGNATION SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AND BESTOWED.
02:59:34 OUR LOCAL DISTRICT OFFERS MANY IMPORTANT DISTINCTIONS FROM A
02:59:38 STALLED EFFORT AT THE STATE LEVEL TO CREATE A NORTH BEACH
02:59:43 HISTORIC DISTRICT. >> FIRST OUR DISTRICT WILL
02:59:46 HONOR HISTORY WHILE ALLOWING NEW HOMES.
02:59:50 >> RESIDENTS EXPECT THAT WE CAN DO BOTH AND THAT WE DO NOT NEED
02:59:53 TO PIT ONE AGAINST THE OTHER. OUR LOCAL DISTRICT WILL PROTECT
02:59:57 HISTORIC BUILDINGS AND HONOR THEIR HISTORY WITHOUT INCLUDING
02:59:58 GARAGES OR EMPTY LOTS. LIKE THE STATE PROPOSAL DOES.
03:00:02 WE EXPECT THAT IT WILL DESIGNATE APPROXIMATELY 200
03:00:08 BUILDINGS AS CONTRIBUTORS TO THE HISTORIC DISTRICT NOT THE
03:00:11 700 THAT THE STATE PROPOSAL CONTAINS.
03:00:12 WE'LL ALSO PUT NEIGHBORS AND PROPERTY OWNERS IN CONTROL
03:00:16 HERE. HOLDING COMMUNITY MEETINGS
03:00:19 AND EXPLICITLY ALLOWING FOR INDIVIDUAL PROPERTIES TO OPT
03:00:23 OUT OF BEING INCLUDED IN OUR LOCAL DESIGNATION WILL ALLOW
03:00:24 THE PLANNING DEPARTMENT TO WORK WITH THE COMMUNITY TO SPECIFY
03:00:28 THE SCOPE OF WORK THAT WOULD REQUIRE STEPS LIKE A
03:00:32 CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS OR HISTORIC PRESERVATION
03:00:35 COMMISSION HEARING. AND IT WILL BE A COMMUNITY
03:00:36 DRIVEN COLLABORATIVE EXERCISE. FINALLY OUR EFFORT WILL TAKE
03:00:40 INTO ACCOUNT THE EXTENSIVE FEEDBACK WHICH WAS SUBMITTED BY
03:00:44 THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION TO THE PROJECT
03:00:47 SPONSORS OF THE STATE PROPOSAL MORE THAN A YEAR AND A HALF
03:00:49 AGO. >> THAT FEEDBACK INCLUDED
03:00:51 CALLING OUT SHORTCOMINGS OF THE STATE NOMINATION FOR ITS LACK
03:00:55 OF DETAIL ON THE ITALIAN AND CHINESE CONTRIBUTIONS TO
03:00:59 NORTH BEACH AND CRITIQUE THAT THE PROPOSED BOUNDARIES WERE
03:01:00 TOO EXPANSIVE OF LEADING TO A PROPOSED HISTORIC DISTRICT THAT
03:01:04 LACKED CONTINUITY AND CONTINUITY AND COHESION.
03:01:08 THE CURRENT NOMINATION AT THE STATE LEVEL TOOK NONE OF THAT
03:01:12 FEEDBACK INTO ACCOUNT BUT OUR LOCAL DESIGNATION WILL BE
03:01:16 CENTERED ON THAT GUIDANCE FROM OUR LOCALLY APPOINTED HISTORIC
03:01:19 PRESERVATION EXPERTS. IN SHORT, OUR EFFORT WILL BE
03:01:23 EVERYTHING THAT THE STATE NOMINATION IS NOT.
03:01:24 IT WILL BE COMMUNITY DRIVEN, AUTHENTIC TO THE TRUE DEPTH OF
03:01:28 OUR HISTORY AND IN RECOGNITION THAT ADMITS IN THE MIDST OF A
03:01:32 HOUSING CRISIS WE CAN BOTH HONOR OUR HISTORY AND BUILD
03:01:35 HOMES FOR NEW NEIGHBORS AND LONGTIME RESIDENTS AND THE
03:01:39 REST I SUBMIT. THANK YOU.
03:01:42 SUPERVISOR SAUDER SUPERVISOR CHERYL SUBMIT.
03:01:46 THANK YOU. SUPERVISOR WALTON NOT IN THE
03:01:47 CHAMBER AND SUPERVISOR WANG. >> SUBMIT.
03:01:50 THANK YOU. SUPERVISOR CHAN NOT IN THE
03:01:54 CHAMBER. MR. PRESIDENT AT THE TIME THAT
03:01:58 CONCLUDES THE INTRODUCTION OF NEW BUSINESS.
03:02:01 >> ALL RIGHT, MADAM CLERK, LET'S GO TO PUBLIC COMMENT.
03:02:05 >> ALL RIGHT. MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC ARE
03:02:08 WELCOME TO ADDRESS THE BOARD. WE'RE SETTING THE TIMER FOR TWO
03:02:12 MINUTES AND SPEAKERS WILL BE PRIORITIZED AND THEN THEREAFTER
03:02:17 WE'LL CHECK THE REMOTE SYSTEM. DURING GENERAL PUBLIC COMMENT
03:02:20 YOU CAN SPEAK TO ITEMS 42 THROUGH 52.
03:02:23 >> THESE ARE ON THE ADOPTION WITHOUT COMMITTEE REFERENCE
03:02:26 CALENDAR. OTHER GENERAL MATTERS THAT ARE
03:02:27 NOT ON TODAY'S AGENDA MUST BE WITHIN THE BOARD SUBJECT MATTER
03:02:30 JURISDICTION AND SO WELCOME TO OUR FIRST SPEAKER.
03:02:43 >> HI. OKAY I'M BACK.
03:02:44 OKAY SO LET'S FIRST YEAH THERE IS NO SUCH A THING AS PUBLIC
03:02:50 COMMENT OTHERWISE YOU WILL KEEP YOUR OWN AND INTELLIGENCE
03:02:54 PRIVATE. SO IS THIS AGAIN BUDGET FOR A
03:02:59 LIMITED FEW ADDITIONS I GUESS YOU ARE THE PUBLIC MORALS
03:03:09 IN THE SAME WAY I AM THE PEOPLE YOU ARE THE PEOPLE SEE SO IF
03:03:14 YOU URGED THE PEOPLE YOU URGE YOURSELF THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT'S
03:03:18 GOING ON. IT'S WHAT CAN BE DEFINED TODAY
03:03:21 AS A COLLECTIVE SUICIDE. SO YOU ARE ASKING YOURSELF BY
03:03:28 OUTING THE PEOPLE BY YOUR LACK OF INTELLIGENCE UNDERSTANDING
03:03:32 WHERE IT'S LEADING. >> SO HOW TO STOP THIS?
03:03:36 >> YOU HAVE TO RELY ON THE RULES FROM THIS.
03:03:40 GUYS THEMSELVES RULED BY ITS HONESTY WHICH ALL THE RULES OF
03:03:45 THE UNIVERSE WALKING BY PSYCHOS IT'S IT'S ILLEGAL OR DOES THIS
03:03:53 WATCH IF YOU DON'T FOCUS ON DUTY YOU NECESSARILY SELF THIS
03:03:59 THROWS SOONER OR LATER BECAUSE YOU ARE FAKING DUTY AND SOONER
03:04:04 OR LATER IT'S A QUESTION OF TIME.
03:04:04 IT JUST SHOWS. >> SO NOW THE SITUATION IS SUCH
03:04:08 AS WE JUST STOP ANYTHING I HEARD RECENTLY SORT OF FIGHT
03:04:15 AGAINST AIR WHICH I REPEAT IS ABSOLUTE INCOMPETENCE.
03:04:19 I EPITOMIZE ABSOLUTE INCOMPETENCE IN WHICH WE ALL
03:04:26 BUT YOU CAN'T FIGHT. >> IT'S THE ONLY WAY TO FIGHT
03:04:27 IT IS TO STAY AWAY FROM IT AND LET IT SELF SELF
03:04:34 DESTRUCTION AND SELF DESTROY YOU BECAUSE THIS IS
03:04:37 AUTOMATICALLY WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN NO MATTER THE DAMAGE.
03:04:41 >> GOOD LUCK. I'M WITH YOU.
03:04:45 >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. NEXT SPEAKER I'M IN I'M
03:04:53 IN DEUCE IN A RESOLUTION TO FEMALES FEMALES IN SPORTS WE
03:05:00 JUST HAD A NEW ORGANIZATION PERTAINING TO WOMEN IN SPORTS
03:05:04 PERTAINING TO VOLLEYBALL. WE'VE GOT A PROFESSIONAL
03:05:05 BASKETBALL TEAM FULL OF WOMEN THAT'S DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB
03:05:09 IN DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB OF ACCELERATING MY POINT I'M
03:05:16 OBJECTING TO GAVIN NEWSOM SIGNING AN ORDER THAT HE HAS
03:05:20 WITHDRAWAL WHICH LET MEN PARTICIPATE IN WOMEN'S SPORTS.
03:05:25 YOU'RE GOING TO HAVE MEN GET INVOLVED IN THIS NEW VOLLEYBALL
03:05:28 TEAM THAT'S JUST BEEN APPROVED TO EXPAND AND PLAY IN THE STATE
03:05:32 OF CALIFORNIA. YOU'RE GOING TO LET MEN GET
03:05:36 IN WOMEN'S SPORTS WITH VALKYRIES THAT PLAY OVER AT THE
03:05:40 CENTER OVER IN MISSION ROCK AREA OBJECT TO THAT AND I
03:05:44 OBJECT TO GAVIN NEWSOM NOT CORRECT IN HIS EFFORT OF
03:05:47 SIGNING THAT BILL WHICH LET MEN PARTITION PAID IN WOMEN'S
03:05:52 SPORTS. OKAY.
03:05:52 FOR THE CURRENT EVENTS SPRINT WELL GETTING BUSTED AND PULLING
03:05:59 OUT OF THE RACE MY POINT IS CHINA INTERFERING WITH OUR
03:06:03 ELECTION. I OBJECT TO THE MAYOR GOING TO
03:06:07 CHINA TALKING ABOUT BEIJING IS OUR SISTER STATE.
03:06:14 THAT'S DISGUSTING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL'S
03:06:15 WRONG WITH HIM. CHINA IS GET IS OLD APARTHEID
03:06:18 BLACK AFRICA APARTHEID EXISTING IN CHINA CHINA HAS A
03:06:25 NATIONALITY OF PEOPLE THAT'S CALLED WIGGERS AN ADDITIONAL
03:06:29 NATIONALITY OF PEOPLE THAT'S CALLED FALUN GONG AND ALL OF
03:06:33 THEM ARE CHINESE PEOPLE. BUT THE COMMUNIST CHINA WHO
03:06:40 PRIME MINISTER YI THEY CALL THEIR PRESIDENT A PRIME
03:06:41 MINISTER IS DELIBERATELY PUTTING HIM IN PRISON BECAUSE
03:06:47 OF THEIR RELIGION AND HIS CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY.
03:06:49 SO FOR THE MAYOR TO GO OVER THERE AND TALK ABOUT THAT'S OUR
03:06:53 SISTER STATE IS AN INSULT ON EVERYBODY'S INTELLIGENCE
03:06:56 AND IT'S HARASSMENT. THANK YOU, MR. WRIGHT, FOR YOUR
03:07:00 COMMENTS. NEXT SPEAKER WELL MY COMMENTS
03:07:06 ARE FAR LESS BROAD AND SWEEPING THAN THE FINE GENTLEMAN BEFORE
03:07:10 ME. >> PG AND E P G AND HE HAS
03:07:14 FAILED US BUT CITY OWNED POWER IS NOT THE ANSWER.
03:07:18 PGE SHOULD ABSOLUTELY BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AND COMPENSATE
03:07:21 CUSTOMERS FOR LOSSES BUT BUYING THE GRID AND PUTTING IT UNDER
03:07:25 CITY HALL IS AN INCREDIBLY EXPENSIVE WAY TO PUNISH P, G
03:07:29 AND E ON THE BACKS OF SAN FRANCISCO RATEPAYERS.
03:07:34 AND WHERE DO YOU THINK THAT MONEY'S GOING TO COME FROM?
03:07:35 IT'S GOING TO COME FROM US. THIS WILL MAKE SAN FRANCISCO
03:07:37 LESS AFFORDABLE. THE ARGUMENT THAT OTHER CITIES
03:07:41 HAVE CHEAPER PUBLIC POWER IGNORES THE FACT THAT WE NEED
03:07:42 TO BUY THE GRID WE ARE NOT SIMILARLY SITUATED TO THOSE
03:07:46 OTHER MUNICIPALITIES. THAT PURCHASE WILL BE BORNE BY
03:07:52 RATEPAYERS. SAN FRANCISCO ALREADY FACES A
03:07:53 MASSIVE DEFICIT PGE ANY ASSETS WOULD COST OVER WELL OVER $3.4
03:08:01 BILLION BEFORE THE ADDITIONAL BILLIONS FOR FINANCING
03:08:04 MODERNIZATION SEPARATING THE GRID.
03:08:08 AND BY THE WAY A LITTLE THING CALLED INTEREST WHICH ADDS
03:08:11 ABOUT 50% TO EVERY DOLLAR WE SPEND AND WHY DO YOU THINK
03:08:15 GOVERNMENT OWNERSHIP WILL MAKE POWER CHEAPER?
03:08:16 LOOK AT OUR EXISTING CITY RUN UTILITIES SFP YOU SEE PROJECTS
03:08:19 WATER AND WASTE BILLS WILL INCREASE 117% OVER THE NEXT
03:08:25 DECADE. >> THAT'S NOT CHEAP.
03:08:28 >> WE ALREADY HAVE A REAL WORLD TEST CASE BEYOND EVERYTHING
03:08:32 ELSE BEYOND THE FACT THAT THE MATH DOESN'T MATH ON PGE ANY US
03:08:37 BUYING PGE ASSETS WE HAVE A TEST CASE FOR A CITY OPERATED
03:08:41 GRID TREASURE ISLAND AS A POSSE OPERATES THAT SYSTEM.
03:08:44 >> THAT'S WHO WOULD BE OPERATING THE SYSTEM FOR THE
03:08:46 WHOLE CITY AND SINCE 1997 THERE HAVE BEEN 538 OUTAGES.
03:08:51 SO WE COMPLAIN ABOUT THREE LAST YEAR, THREE DAYS LAST YEAR
03:08:54 THAT'S 20 A YEAR ON AVERAGE SINCE 1997 ONE EVERY THREE
03:09:01 WEEKS. >> THEY ARE SUFFERING ON
03:09:02 TREASURE ISLAND HOLD PEG NECK ACCOUNTABLE, DEMAND BETTER
03:09:05 SERVICE BUT DON'T REPLACE THIS UTILITY PROBLEM WITH $1 BILLION
03:09:08 GOVERNMENT LIABILITY. >> THINK IT'S COMMON SENSE.
03:09:11 >> THANK YOU. YOUR COMMENT WHEN I STOOD HERE
03:09:19 THREE WEEKS AGO THE NUMBER OF RECORDED AUTONOMOUS I FELONIES
03:09:22 WAS 17 WHEN I STOOD HERE ONE WEEK AGO THE NUMBER WENT UP TO
03:09:28 20. LOCATELLI IS NOW 23.
03:09:30 WE ARE AT THE STAGE WHERE OUR COMPANIES ARE HIDING THE CRIMES
03:09:34 FOR MONTHS GOOGLE GERMANY COMMITTED THREE CYBER FELONIES
03:09:37 IN MAY GOOGLE DECIDED TO WAIT FOR MONTHS TO REPORT THIS OR SO
03:09:41 BACK IN MAY WAS A MASSIVE CYBERSECURITY INCIDENT CALLED
03:09:44 THE GEM STUFFER HACK. CYBERSECURITY EXPERTS BELIEVE
03:09:45 IT WAS PERPETRATED BY HUMANS UNTIL TWO WEEKS AGO WHEN A
03:09:48 GROUP OF INDEPENDENT RESEARCHERS DISCOVERED GEM
03:09:51 STUFFER WAS YET ANOTHER ROGUE INCIDENT FROM OPEN I AT LEAST
03:09:55 GOOGLE WAS THE FIRST TO ADMIT THE INCIDENT OPENLY.
03:09:59 I ONLY ADMITTED THEIR CULPABILITY AFTER INDEPENDENT
03:10:02 RESEARCHERS PUBLISHED PUBLISHED THEIR FINDINGS.
03:10:06 AID DEVELOPERS ARE ACTIVELY MINIMIZING THE DANGER THEIR ADS
03:10:10 POST AND TOPIC IS RESPONSIBLE FOR NINE OF THE RECORDED 23
03:10:14 AUTONOMOUS FELONIES SEPTEMBER 10TH THEY RELEASED A REPORT
03:10:17 DETAILING HOW THEY DISCOVERED THE A'S BEING USED BY HUMANS
03:10:20 OUTSIDE THE US TO DEVELOP MISSILES AIRCRAFT JAMMING TECH
03:10:24 HACKING TECHNIQUES AND ALL SORTS OF CRIMES.
03:10:28 THEY ON PAGE 17 OF THE REPORT THEY WRITE QUOTE WE IDENTIFIED
03:10:32 LIKELY FREELANCE RUSSIA BASED THREAT ACTORS WHO SET OUT TO
03:10:35 BUILD FULL STACK AUTONOMOUS FIRST PERSON VIEW KAMIKAZE
03:10:39 DRONE SWARMS AND QUOTE ANTHROPIC ACTUALLY PUBLISH THIS
03:10:45 FIVE DAYS AFTER PUBLISHING THE REPORT AND SLOPPY DECIDED LAST
03:10:49 TUESDAY WHILE I WAS SPEAKING HERE TO ANNOUNCE THEY WILL OPEN
03:10:50 A BIO TO USE THEIR A.I. TO RUN MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS.
03:10:57 THEY CALLED IT A WET LAB BECAUSE BIO LAB SOUNDS A BIT
03:11:01 TOO MENACING. IT IS UNDENIABLE THAT AIR IS
03:11:02 NOW IN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TECHNOLOGY.
03:11:04 THE SMARTER GETS THE MORE DESTRUCTION IS CAPABLE OF THE
03:11:08 LONGER THESE COMPANIES ARE ALLOWED TO OPERATE IN SAN
03:11:09 FRANCISCO, THE CLOSER WE GET TO DISASTER.
03:11:13 YOU CAN EITHER ACT NOW OR YOU CAN WAIT UNTIL THE BODIES ARE
03:11:16 STACKING UP. >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS
03:11:19 AND WELCOME TO THE NEXT SPEAKER .
03:11:24 >> GOOD AFTERNOON SUPERVISOR. I HOPE YOU ARE LISTENING
03:11:27 AND NOT SCREWING ON YOUR PHONE AS MY FELLOW COMMUNITY
03:11:31 COMMUNITY MEMBERS HAVE ALREADY SHOWN THERE IS A LOT OF FEAR
03:11:36 AND MISCOMMUNICATION. MS..
03:11:37 MS. IN INFORMATION ABOUT THE GROWING ROGUE AGENT THE THREAT
03:11:43 TO OUR SOCIETY RATHER THAN REPEAT WHAT HAS BEEN SAID HERE
03:11:51 ARE SOME FACTS FOR YOU TO CONSIDER.
03:11:54 ONE WATER SUPPLY RECENT AIR ATTACKS HAVE HIT WATER SYSTEM
03:11:59 IN AT LEAST SEVERAL STATES INCLUDING MINNESOTA, MICHIGAN,
03:12:03 GEORGIA AND NEW JERSEY CAUSING SERVICE DISRUPTIONS AND BOIL
03:12:10 WATER NOTICES. SUCCESSFUL ATTACKS LIKE THESE
03:12:13 CAN LEAD TO WATER SHORTAGES. >> EQUIPMENT CHANGE EQUIPMENT
03:12:17 DAMAGE AND POTENTIAL CHEMICAL POISONING OF WATER SUPPLIES.
03:12:22 >> IF ATTACKS IF ATTACKERS GAIN CONTROL OF WATER TREATMENT
03:12:26 FACILITIES TO ELECTRICAL GRID GRID STATE SPONSORS HACKERS ARE
03:12:33 ACTIVELY EMBEDDING MALWARE IN OUR ELECTRICAL GRID SYSTEMS
03:12:38 WHICH ALLOW AGENTS TO IDENTIFY SYSTEM VULNERABILITIES
03:12:41 AND CONDUCT CYBER ATTACKS THAT COULD TRIGGER MULTI-STATE
03:12:45 BLACKOUTS. THREE.
03:12:48 >> BANKING BANKING API VULNERABILITY.
03:12:52 HAT NOW REPRESENT THE INDUSTRY GREATEST EXPLOITATION
03:12:55 VULNERABILITY. WITH 84% OF GLOBAL FRAUD
03:12:59 AND RISK LEADERS PREDICTING THAT CYBER ATTACKS BY AGENT
03:13:03 WILL BE THE PRIMARY FORM OF BANKING FRAUD IN 2027.
03:13:09 THE DANGERS INCLUDE. ONE UNAUTHORIZED MONETARY
03:13:12 TRANSACTION TO COMPROMISE BANKING CHAT BOT THAT REVEALS
03:13:20 SENSITIVE CUSTOMER DATA. >> AND THREE DEEP FAKES OF
03:13:24 CUSTOMER IDENTITY VERIFICATION TO BREAK INTO.
03:13:28 >> THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS.
03:13:32 >> HELLO BOARD A COUPLE OF THINGS HERE.
03:13:36 >> ONE I AM POLITELY REQUESTING MORE ACTION TO BE DONE BY THE
03:13:43 SUPERVISORS WHOSE RESIDENTS AND BUSINESSES IMPACT THE
03:13:46 PROPOSED OCEAN AVENUE PROJECT. I HAVE A LIST OF MERCHANTS THAT
03:13:51 HAVE BEEN NOT HEARD AND ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE
03:13:54 PROPOSAL AND FEEL THAT THE PILOT IS JUST A FORMALITY WHICH
03:13:58 I DID HEAR DIRECTLY FROM MTA AND WELL THE PROJECT WILL STILL
03:14:04 MOVE FORWARD. THAT'S NUMBER ONE.
03:14:07 TWO ARE SUPERVISOR FIELDER'S PROPOSED LEGISLATION I'M JUST A
03:14:12 LITTLE CURIOUS ABOUT IS THIS LEGISLATION'S INTENT TO PAVE
03:14:15 THE WAY FOR UNPERMITTED VENDORS ?
03:14:22 EVERY SMALL BUSINESS HAS TO PAY FOR A PERMIT.
03:14:27 >> WHY WOULD THE WHY WOULD THIS THIS CATEGORY OR THESE PEOPLE
03:14:30 THAT WOULD FIT UNDER THE CRITERIA FOR THIS LEGISLATION
03:14:34 NOT HAVE TO PAY A PERMIT? >> THIRD SUPERVISOR SHOUTED
03:14:40 YOUR RESOLUTION SOUNDS NIFTY. I'M CURIOUS TO LEARN MORE.
03:14:48 I DO BELIEVE WE CAN WE CAN PRESERVE HISTORIC DISTRICTS
03:14:52 AND REALLY ESSENTIAL PLACES LIKE NORTH BEACH WHERE I VISIT
03:14:53 ON THE WAY TWEAK BASIS WHILE BUILDING HOUSING.
03:14:57 SO I APPRECIATE THIS EFFORT. THERE'S NOT TOO OFTEN I SEE
03:15:01 NIMBY AND YET BE COMING TOGETHER.
03:15:03 THIS THIS SEEMS LIKE THAT SOMETHING OF THAT NATURE.
03:15:04 THANK YOU VERY MUCH. >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS.
03:15:07 I WOULD JUST REMIND THE PUBLIC AT PRESENT THERE IS A BOARD
03:15:11 RULE THAT YOU NOT ADDRESS INDIVIDUAL MEMBERS WHO ADDRESS
03:15:14 THE BOARD AS A WHOLE. >> LET'S HEAR FROM OUR NEXT
03:15:16 SPEAKER. WELCOME.
03:15:18 >> GOOD AFTERNOON, PRESIDENT MENDELSOHN AND BOARD OF
03:15:21 SUPERVISORS. MY NAME IS LESLIE J.
03:15:24 FROM DISTRICT THREE THE TIME TO BAN FURTHER DEVELOP MENT OF AI
03:15:28 SUPERINTELLIGENCE IS NOW. >> THE RECENT INCIDENTS OF AIR
03:15:33 MODELS CHOOSING TO ACT ON THEIR OWN, DISREGARDING THEIR
03:15:37 PROGRAMING IS A DIRE WARNING THAT HUMANS ARE CERTAIN TO LOSE
03:15:40 CONTROL OVER ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE IF THE DEVELOPMENT
03:15:44 CONTINUES AS IT IS THE ONLY SOLUTION WHICH WILL PREVENT A
03:15:48 VERY LIKELY CATASTROPHIC OUTCOME FOR US ALL IS TO BAN
03:15:55 THE DEVELOPMENT OF AI SUPERINTELLIGENCE.
03:15:58 YOUR MISSION AS THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH OF SAN FRANCISCO IS TO
03:16:03 RESPOND TO THE NEEDS OF THE PEOPLE OF THE CITY AND COUNTY
03:16:07 OF SAN FRANCISCO. ESTABLISHING CITY POLICIES
03:16:08 AND ADOPTING ORDINANCES AND RESOLUTIONS YOUR RESPONSE
03:16:14 ABILITY TO THE PEOPLE OF SAN FRANCISCO IS TO CREATE A POLICY
03:16:18 BANNING FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF AI SUPERINTELLIGENCE
03:16:22 AND ABSOLUTELY OPPOSE THE BUILDING OF ANOTHER DATA CENTER
03:16:26 IN THIS CITY. I THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR
03:16:27 TIME. >> THANK YOU.

03:16:42 NOW. >> MY PRONOUNS AS SHE ARE.
03:16:43 WHERE DO I EVEN BEGIN? >> NOW MANY PEOPLE KNOW THAT I
03:16:46 SUPPORT ANIMAL RIGHTS AND WAS HORRIFIED TO HEAR THE NEWS THAT
03:16:50 SOME SICKO IS DECAPITATING SEA LIONS ON OCEAN BEACH.
03:16:53 THE REAL QUESTION IS IS THIS NPC SUPERVISOR ALAN WRONG GOING
03:16:57 TO DOING ALL HE CAN ABOUT IT AND ALSO ABOUT THIS WHOLE
03:17:00 THING. A WEEK AGO A DATA CENTER
03:17:02 IN SECAUCUS, NEW JERSEY MY BIRTH STATE LEAKED OVER 5000
03:17:05 GALLONS OF BACKUP FUEL INTO AN ENVIRONMENTALLY SENSITIVE AREA.
03:17:08 >> AND YET YOU ALL JUST WANT TO WATCH FOR A WEEK SOPHOMORE
03:17:12 THORIUM. BELIEVE ME, NOBODY REGARDLESS
03:17:13 OF DISTRICT WANTS TO LIVE NEAR THESE NOISY TERRESTRIAL DEATH
03:17:17 STARS. >> ALSO IT'S TIME TO PUT PUBLIC
03:17:20 COMMENT FIRST ON THE AGENDA. LIKE ANY NORMAL CITY
03:17:24 IN CALIFORNIA I AND SO MANY OTHERS ARE SICK AND TIRED OF
03:17:28 EITHER HAVING TO WAIT THREE HOURS OR MORE.
03:17:29 BUT I GUESS YOU ALL JUST HAVE SO MUCH CONTEMPT FOR US THAT
03:17:32 YOU'LL JUST SPEND YOUR WHEELS TO PREVENT US FROM GIVING YOU A
03:17:36 PIECE OF YOUR MIND. MY ITALIAN GRANDPA SAID YOU
03:17:37 HAVE TO HAVE YOUR RAVIOLI BEFORE YOU HAVE YOUR GELATO.
03:17:40 AND WE ARE YOUR RAVIOLI. ALSO I THINK THAT ANYONE WHO
03:17:44 GOES ON THE YOUTH COMMISSION AT K-12 AGE SHOULD HAVE TO BE A
03:17:47 PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENT. >> I'M ANGRY THAT MAYOR CHOKWE
03:17:51 CHICKEN LARRY DECIDED TO POINT SIX PRIVATE SCHOOL KIDS THAT
03:17:53 THE SEE I GUESS THE RICH AND SNAPPLE BABY HATES PUBLIC
03:17:56 SCHOOLS BUT Y'ALL ARE ENTHRALLED BY IT.
03:18:00 LET'S GO SAN FRANCISCO. BRAIN ROT AND YOU NEED TO DO
03:18:03 SOMETHING ABOUT PSA EVICTIONS. AFTER HEARING ABOUT HOW THEY

03:18:11 A BUNCH OF RECOMMENDATIONS FROM COMMUNITY EVICTION ATTORNEYS
03:18:15 AND EVEN A CHESS AGENT WHO LEGISLATIVE OUTLINE
03:18:16 RECOMMENDATIONS ARE DEVELOPED YEARS AGO.
03:18:19 >> I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO DO 80% OF THE WORK ON CRAFTING
03:18:22 SOLUTIONS LIKE WHAT THE I JUST WROTE MY 50TH ARTICLE FOR
03:18:25 STRAIGHT SHE AND SOME OF YOU HAD TO READ WHAT I HAVE TO SAY.

03:19:26 DON'T GO AFTER THE SALES FORCES.
03:19:27 DON'T GO AFTER AMAZON, COME AFTER THE CAB DRIVERS FOR $63
03:19:33 MILLION WHICH WE USE FOR WHAT? PUBLIC TRANSIT.
03:19:37 >> WE WANT A 50% REDUCTION IN OUR REVENUE GUIDANCE RIGHT

03:19:41 WE DON'T NEED ALL THE PAYMENT OVER ONE YEAR.
03:19:44 WE CAN SPACE IT OUT OVER 5 OR 6 YEARS SO IT DOESN'T HURT THE
03:19:47 BUDGET. >> WE NEED HELP GUYS.

03:22:50 I'M HERE TO REPORT THE FINDING IN THE EYES OF AUSTRIA, CHINA
03:22:54 AND JAPAN AND AUSTRIA. WE HAVE THIS PROGRAM.
03:22:58 IT'S FULLY INTEGRATED WITH A WIDE FIRST COMPANY.

03:23:06 A CHARGER IN AUSTRIA THAT COST US $2,000 FOR SIX MONTHS
03:23:13 CONTRACT AND SUBSIDIZE BY THE AUSTRIAN GOVERNMENT.
03:23:17 JUST SECOND OPTION AUSTRIA 60 WHICH IS A COMPANY AND HAS A
03:23:20 BATTERY INTERFACE SO THAT COSTS US $4,000.
03:23:24 AND FINALLY WE HAVE AMBER WITH A PRIVATE COMPANY IN AUSTRIA
03:23:31 AND WE HAVE A FIRST LEAP MOTOR. I GOING TO SIGN UP FOR IT
03:23:35 AND THERE'S 15 UNITS IN A WAITING LIST 8050 UNITS
03:23:41 IN PRODUCTION AND 8000 IN A THE WAITING LIST.
03:23:45 AND NOW I WANT TO TALK ABOUT JAPAN AND THE STORY OF NISSAN

03:23:53 BUT NOW HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE THE ALL IN WITH SOLID STATE
03:23:57 BATTERY AN ALLIANCE WITH AB2G BECAUSE IN ABOUT 2000 TAKE TIME
03:24:02 LIKE THE COMING OF A FULL PRODUCTION OF SOLID STATE
03:24:05 BATTERY AS WELL AS A REVERSIBLE CHARGING FOR NISSAN IS A STORY
03:24:10 THAT THAT THAT IT'S GOING TO COMPETE AGAINST ITS TOYOTA
03:24:15 AND OTHER PEOPLE FOR SOLID SIX BATTERY AND B2G AND IT'S GOING
03:24:18 TO BE HARD YOU KNOW THE FIRST COMPANY TO HAVE A FULL
03:24:23 PRODUCTION FOR THE CUSTOMERS THAT THEY HAVE HAD TO HYDRATE
03:24:29 AND SO THE COMPANY AUTO COMPANY LIKE TWITTER THAT'S GOING TO
03:24:33 SCALE IS A MARKET THAT WE SHOULD ALSO BE LOOKING FOR.
03:24:34 >> THANK YOU. THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS.
03:24:37 WELCOME TO OUR NEXT SPEAKER. >> HI, MY NAME IS DINA NADLER'S
03:24:48 SERVER AND I RUN A MICO CALLED DINA'S DELICIOUS COOKING IN THE
03:24:52 BAY AREA. >> AND I AM SPEAKING IN SUPPORT
03:24:55 OF MICROENTERPRISE HOME KITCHEN OPERATIONS ALSO CALLED MCOS.
03:24:59 >> TWO YEARS AGO MY HUSBAND WAS LAID OFF FROM WORK AND OUR
03:25:01 FAMILY DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. AND THEN I DISCOVERED THAT I
03:25:04 COULD OPEN A MICO FROM MY HOME. I'D BE ABLE TO SAFELY
03:25:09 AND LEGALLY COOK FROM MY HOME. >> AND THIS IS A TRUE LIFELINE.
03:25:12 I NEVER IMAGINED THAT I WOULD BE ABLE TO OPEN MY OWN BUSINESS
03:25:16 WITHOUT HAVING HUGE STARTUP COSTS.
03:25:19 I WAS NOW ABLE TO LEGALLY COOK FROM MY HOME AND I COULD WORK
03:25:23 AROUND MY CHILDREN'S SCHEDULES AND HELP PROVIDE FOR MY FAMILY.
03:25:27 WITHOUT THE MICO OPTION WE WOULD HAVE HAD TO LEAVE THE BAY
03:25:31 AREA. >> MCOS ARE A WIN WIN SITUATION
03:25:34 FOR THE COUNTY AND MICO OWNERS. WE PAY TAXES APPLICATION FEES,
03:25:38 LICENSE RENEWAL FEES. WE GENERATE REVENUE TO THE
03:25:39 COUNTY AND WE BRING BUSINESS TO OUR AREAS.
03:25:42 >> AND THEY ALLOW PEOPLE LIKE ME WHO COULD NOT AFFORD HUGE
03:25:46 STARTUP COSTS AND WOULDN'T QUALIFY FOR A BANK LOAN TO OPEN
03:25:49 A BUSINESS TO OWN A BUSINESS AND OPEN A BUSINESS.
03:25:52 I IMPLORE YOU TO LET MCOS BE A PART OF SAN FRANCISCO AND ALLOW
03:25:57 THE PEOPLE HERE THE SAME OPPORTUNE CITIES THAT I GOT.
03:26:01 >> IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS OR I'D LIKE TO ORDERS
03:26:05 IN DELICIOUS NEW YORK STYLE DELI FROM MY MICO PLEASE REACH
03:26:06 OUT. I'M ALWAYS HAPPY TO TALK FOOD
03:26:09 WITH EVERYONE. >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS
03:26:12 . >> WELCOME TO OUR NEXT SPEAKER
03:26:16 . >> HELLO SUPERVISORS.
03:26:17 GOOD AFTERNOON. MY NAME IS NATALIE ORTIZ,
03:26:21 DIRECTOR OF STRATEGIC PARTNERSHIP BUSINESS STRAKOSHA.
03:26:25 >> WE ORGANIZE ALONGSIDE FOOD VENDORS ACROSS SAN FRANCISCO
03:26:29 CLOSE TO ABOUT 200 OF THEM MANY MIGRANTS, PARENTS AND WORKING
03:26:33 FAMILIES WHO DEPEND ON THIS WORK TO SURVIVE.
03:26:34 I'M HERE TO ASK THE FULL BOARD TO SUPPORT MICROENTERPRISE HOME
03:26:37 KITCHEN OPERATION MICO FIRST THANK YOU TO THIS BOARD.
03:26:44 THIS BOARD HAS ALREADY SHOWN IT BELIEVES IN REMOVING BARRIERS
03:26:46 FOR SMALL BUSINESSES. YOU PASS FIRST YEAR FREE
03:26:49 UNANIMOUSLY AND KEEP EXTENDING IT.
03:26:53 AND IN MARCH YOU UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE STREET VENDING
03:26:57 ORDINANCE WITH FEE WAIVERS FOR MOST VENDORS.
03:26:58 THANKS TO SUPERVISOR FIELDER'S OFFICE.
03:27:01 THAT WAS AN IMPORTANT STEP BUT WITHOUT MICO VENDORS ARE STILL
03:27:05 LEFT PAYING FOR COMMISSARY KITCHENS THEY CAN'T AFFORD.
03:27:08 MICO IS HOW YOU FINISH THE JOB YOU STARTED.
03:27:12 >> THESE VENDORS ARE SMALL BUSINESS OWNERS BECAUSE ALREADY
03:27:16 WORKING IN COUNTIES ACROSS CALIFORNIA LIKE ALAMEDA, SAN
03:27:17 MATEO, SANTA CLARA, LOS ANGELES.
03:27:20 >> AND SO IF IF SAN FRANCISCO SAYS NO, WE KEEP BARRIERS
03:27:24 BARRIERS OUR NEIGHBORS HAVE ALREADY REMOVED AND WHILE OUR
03:27:28 WORK CENTERS ON STREET VENDORS, WE KNOW MICO WILL OPEN DOORS
03:27:32 FOR SO MANY MORE SAN FRANCISCANS HOME COOKS,
03:27:35 CATERERS AND ANYONE WHO DREAMS OF STARTING AND GROWING A SMALL
03:27:38 FOOD BUSINESS FROM THEIR OWN KITCHEN.
03:27:39 THIS IS ABOUT MORE THAN ONE BUSINESS.
03:27:43 WHEN A PARENT IN A VERY LOW INCOME HOUSEHOLD CAN EARN A
03:27:44 STABLE LEGAL INCOME FROM THEIR OWN KITCHEN THAT MONEY GOES
03:27:47 STRAIGHT TO RENT GROCERIES AND SCHOOL SUPPLIES.
03:27:51 IT MEANS MORE STABILITY FOR AN AS OF USD STUDENTS KIDS WHO CAN
03:27:54 STAY IN THEIR SCHOOLS AND THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS.
03:27:58 ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY FOR ONE FAMILY STRENGTHENS THE WHOLE
03:28:01 COMMUNITY. THE REAL SAN FRANCISCO FRISCO
03:28:02 IS A CITY THAT BETS ON ENTREPRENEURS.
03:28:05 OUR VENDORS ARE ASKING FOR THAT SAME CHANCE NOT A HANDOUT OR AN
03:28:09 OPPORTUNITY. WE THANK YOU THE BOARD
03:28:13 AND OTHER ORGANIZATIONS. THANK YOU.
03:28:16 >> THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. WELCOME TO OUR NEXT SPEAKER.
03:28:23 GOOD AFTERNOON SUPERVISOR MY NAME IS KENYATTA ROBINSON.
03:28:29 I RUN BACKYARD SMOKE MASTER BARBECUE A LICENSED HOME
03:28:32 KITCHEN BUSINESS IN CLAYTON AND CONTRA COSTA COUNTY.
03:28:36 OPERATING THROUGH THE MECO PROGRAM, I'M HERE TODAY TO ASK
03:28:40 YOU TO SUPPORT THE LEGISLATION THAT WOULD BRING MICO PERMITS
03:28:44 TO SAN FRANCISCO. AS SUCH, I'M ALSO SPEAKING FOR
03:28:48 THE SAN FRANCISCAN COOKS WHO MIGHT BE AFRAID TO SPEAK UP
03:28:52 BECAUSE THEY ARE CURRENTLY OPERATING IN THE SHADOWS.
03:28:55 THIS WEEK MARKS MY ONE YEAR MARKS ONE YEAR SINCE I OPENED
03:28:59 MY BUSINESS IN MY FIRST YEAR I SERVE 27 CUSTOMERS AND MORE
03:29:05 THAN A THIRD OF THEM CAME BACK TO ORDER AGAIN.
03:29:07 ONE NEIGHBOR HAS ORDERED SIX TIMES WE MAKE OUR PROGRAM CAME
03:29:12 INTO MY LIFE AT THE MOST PIVOTAL MOMENT.
03:29:13 AFTER MORE THAN 20 YEARS IN A CORPORATE CAREER, I WAS LAID
03:29:17 OFF. SOON AFTER MY FATHER PASSED
03:29:20 AWAY SUDDENLY AND MY MOTHER IS HEALTH BEGAN TO DECLINE.
03:29:24 I'M A HUSBAND WITH A DAUGHTER AWAY AT COLLEGE AND I NEEDED A
03:29:28 WAY TO GENERATE INCOME FOR MY FAMILY WHILE ALSO BEING PRESENT
03:29:32 FOR THE PEOPLE WHO NEED ME MOST.
03:29:35 MICHAEL GAVE ME THAT PATH AND GAVE ME THE FLEXIBILITY TO
03:29:37 GET A CURE FOR MY MOTHER OR TO GRIEVE TO BE THERE FOR MY
03:29:40 FAMILY AND TO TURN A LIFELONG PASSION FOR TEXAS STYLE
03:29:44 BARBECUE INTO A REAL LICENSED INSPECTED BUSINESS NOT A HOBBY
03:29:50 OF VENTURE. IT ALSO WORKED BECAUSE OF THE
03:29:54 PARTNERSHIP BEHIND IT IN CONTRA COSTA COUNTY CHRISTINE LUCAS
03:29:59 AND THE HEALTH DIVISION AND HELP OPERATORS LIKE ME RUN
03:30:02 SAFE INSPECTED READY BUSINESSES .
03:30:05 SAN FRANCISCO CAN BUILD THAT SAME PARTNERSHIP HERE.
03:30:08 THIS PROGRAM CREATES MEANINGFUL OPPORTUNITIES FOR HOME COOKS
03:30:12 AND CULINARY ENTREPRENEURS, MANY OF WHOM MAY NOT HAVE THE
03:30:14 CAPITAL TO OPEN A RESTAURANT OR RENT A COMMERCIAL KITCHEN.
03:30:20 IT GIVES US A SAFE, LEGITIMATE WAY TO SHARE OUR FEED WITH OUR
03:30:22 COMMUNITY AND CONTRIBUTE TO THE LOCAL ECONOMY.
03:30:25 SAN FRANCISCO IS FULL OF TALENTED HOME COOKS.
03:30:29 >> THEY DESERVE IT. I URGE YOU TO SUPPORT AND THANK
03:30:33 YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. LET'S HEAR FROM OUR NEXT
03:30:37 SPEAKER. WELCOME.
03:30:40 >> THANK YOU. GOOD AFTERNOON SUPERVISORS.
03:30:44 MY NAME IS JESSICA RUBIO AND I AM THE POLICY DIRECTOR AT
03:30:45 MISSION ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AGENCY.
03:30:49 I AM HERE TO ASK YOU TO SUPPORT TO BRING THE MICROENTERPRISE
03:30:56 HOME KITCHEN OPERATION PROGRAM BETTER KNOWN AS MICO TO SAN
03:30:57 FRANCISCO OR SAN FRANCISCO HAS AN OPPORTUNITY TO CREATE A MORE
03:31:01 ACCESSIBLE PATHWAY FOR RESIDENTS WHO WANT TO BUILD A
03:31:05 FOOD BUSINESS, EARN INCOME AND SERVE THEIR COMMUNITIES
03:31:08 RIGHT FROM THEIR OWN KITCHENS. THIS PROGRAM CAN CREATE AN
03:31:12 AFFORDABLE PATHWAY FOR THESE ENTREPRENEURS WHO MAY NOT HAVE
03:31:15 THE CAPITAL TO OPEN A RESTAURANT OR RENT A COMMERCIAL
03:31:17 KITCHEN BRINGING HOME COOKED FOOD BUSINESSES INTO A
03:31:23 PERMITTED SYSTEM CAN ALSO CREATE A MORE LEVEL PLAYING
03:31:27 FIELD FOR RESTAURANTS AS WELL. UNLIKE BUSINESSES OPERATING
03:31:28 INFORMALLY, MCOS MUST FOLLOW FOOD SAFETY REQUIREMENTS,
03:31:36 OBTAIN APPLICABLE PERMITS AND LICENSES AND COLLECT
03:31:39 AND AND REMIT APPLICABLE TAXES. MCOS ALSO HAVE A STRICT LIMITS
03:31:43 ON MEALS ANNUAL SALES STAFFING AND HOW THEY OPERATE.
03:31:47 THEY CAN DO MORE THAN 30 MEALS PER DAY NIGHTY MEALS PER WEEK
03:31:54 AND $110,000 IN ANNUAL GROSS SALES.
03:31:55 MEDHA HAS ALREADY SUPPORTED OVER 250 ENTREPRENEURS THIS
03:31:58 YEAR. THIS YEAR IN THE MICO PROGRAM
03:32:02 COULD OFFER A MORE AFFORDABLE WAY FOR HUNDREDS OF MORE
03:32:06 ENTREPRENEURS TO EARN INCOME SUPPORT THEIR FAMILIES AND TEST
03:32:09 A BUSINESS IDEA WHILE OPERATING LEGALLY AND FOLLOWING FOOD
03:32:13 SAFETY REQUIREMENTS. HOME COOKS IN MANY OTHER
03:32:17 CALIFORNIA COMMUNITIES ALREADY HAVE THIS OPPORTUNITY AND SAN
03:32:21 FRANCISCO RESIDENTS TO SERVE IT TOO.
03:32:22 I URGE YOU TO SUPPORT AN ACCESSIBLE AND AFFORDABLE
03:32:26 PROGRAM IN SAN FRANCISCO AND A SPECIAL THANKS TO SUPERVISOR TO
03:32:30 THE SUPERVISORS WHO HAVE ALREADY SUPPORTED THIS
03:32:33 ORDINANCE. >> THANK YOU SO MUCH.
03:32:34 THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS. WELCOME TO OUR NEXT SPEAKER.
03:32:40 GOOD AFTERNOON MEMBERS OF THE BOARD.
03:32:45 >> MY NAME IS ROYA BAGHERI AND I'M THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
03:32:48 OF THE COOK ALLIANCE, A NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION THAT
03:32:49 SUPPORTS HOME BASED CULINARY SMALL BUSINESSES.
03:32:52 I'M ALSO A FOOD POLICY ATTORNEY AND WHILE WORKING WITH BOTH
03:32:56 MICO ENTREPRENEURS AND ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH
03:33:00 AGENCIES ACROSS CALIFORNIA, I HAVE SEEN THE IMPACT OF THIS
03:33:03 PROGRAM FIRSTHAND ACROSS THE STATE.
03:33:07 SAN FRANCISCO HAS AN EXTRAORDINARY FOOD CULTURE BUT
03:33:11 SO MANY TALENTED COOKS CANNOT AFFORD THE COST OF OPENING A
03:33:12 RESTAURANT OR RENTING A COMMERCIAL KITCHEN.
03:33:15 MCOS OFFER ONE OF THE MOST ACCESSIBLE WAYS TO START A FOOD
03:33:18 BUSINESS ALLOWING ENTREPRENEURS TO START AND SMALL AND BUILD A
03:33:22 CUSTOMER BASE WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT UPFRONT INVESTMENT.
03:33:25 >> IT'S ALSO WORTH NOTING THAT HOME COOKED FOOD SALES ARE
03:33:29 ALREADY HAPPENING IN SAN FRANCISCO.
03:33:30 ESTABLISHING A AMECO PROGRAM WOULD BRING THIS EXISTING
03:33:34 ACTIVITY INTO A REGULATED SYSTEM WITH PERMITS, HEALTH
03:33:37 INSPECTIONS, COMPREHENSIVE FOOD SAFETY, EDUCATION AND TRAINING
03:33:41 AND CLEAR LIMITATIONS THAT HAVE BEEN SCALED FOR A HOME KITCHEN.
03:33:45 THERE ARE NOW OVER 1200 OF THESE BUSINESSES ACROSS THE
03:33:49 STATE. >> IF YOU VOTE YES, SAN
03:33:52 FRANCISCO WOULD JOIN MANY OTHER COUNTIES THAT HAVE ALREADY
03:33:54 LEGALIZED THESE BUSINESSES. >> RESEARCH EVALUATING THE
03:33:59 PROGRAM'S FIRST FIVE YEARS CONDUCTED WITH A UNIVERSITY OF
03:34:01 WASHINGTON RESEARCHER FOUND THAT 97% OF MIKA'S RECEIVED NO
03:34:07 COMPLAINTS NO COMPLAINTS RELATED TO FOOD SAFETY, NOISE,
03:34:11 TRAFFIC OR OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD CONCERNS.
03:34:14 >> THIS RESEARCH ALSO FOUND STRONG ECONOMIC OUTCOMES 73%
03:34:17 REPORTED MEANINGFUL FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR THEIR HOUSEHOLDS
03:34:22 AND ABOUT A THIRD USED IT AS A STEPPING STONE TOWARD A LARGER
03:34:25 FOOD BUSINESS. THE DATA ALSO SHOWS THAT
03:34:26 APPROXIMATELY 70% OF OPERATORS ARE WOMEN AND 79% ARE PEOPLE OF
03:34:32 COLOR. WE URGE THE BOARD TO SUPPORT
03:34:36 THIS LEGISLATION AND GIVE SAN FRANCISCO HOME COOKS THE CHANCE
03:34:37 TO BUILD SAFE LEGAL BUSINESSES. >> THANK YOU.
03:34:40 THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS AND HEAR FROM OUR NEXT SPEAKER.
03:34:44 >> PLEASE WELCOME. >> GOOD EVENING.
03:34:50 BOARD OF SUPERVISORS. MY NAME IS REBECCA DON WU AT
03:34:55 YAHOO! AND I HAD SOME CONCERNS FROM
03:34:59 LAST WEEK IS A FEW WEEKS AGO I WAS OFFERED A TENANT ORGANIZER
03:35:06 POSITION WHERE I WAS AT AT MY SRO AND THERE WERE OTHERS BUT
03:35:10 AND SO THEN RIGHT AFTER I SIGNED IT A STILL PROBABLY WENT
03:35:17 FOUR HOURS LATER I WAS OFFERED BY H S H A A NEW A NEW TENANT
03:35:28 LOCATION OUTSIDE OF THE NONPROFIT THAT HAS LIKE THREE
03:35:35 DIFFERENT BUILDINGS AND THEY OFFERED ME TO MOVE BUT I HAD
03:35:42 NOT ACTUALLY DONE AN APPLICATION AND SO I HAD TO DO
03:35:46 THAT AND THEN I WENT TO GO SEE IT AND IT'S AMAZING.
03:35:47 IT'S ONE OF THE FOUR T INDICES THAT ARE FOR SALE.
03:35:50 >> THE SERIOUS CONCERN THAT I HAVE IS THAT I BELIEVE THAT AS
03:35:56 SOON AS THEY ARE SOLD THEN THE CITY IS GOING TO NOTIFY OR DO A
03:36:01 PRESS RELEASE SAYING THAT THEY WILL THEN BE DECOMMISSIONED.
03:36:06 >> I JUST SUSPECT THAT IN THE SELLER'S WEBSITE IT CLAIMS
03:36:13 IN THE SELLER'S WEBSITE THERE IS DOCUMENTATION SHOWING THAT
03:36:17 THERE HASN'T BEEN ONE OF THE VACANCIES BEEN FILLED ANYONE?
03:36:22 NO ONE HAS MOVED IN SINCE APRIL FIRST AND THAT'S ON THE
03:36:27 SELLER'S WEBSITE. IF YOU GO THERE AND YET I WAS
03:36:31 OFFERED SO I THINK I'M ONE OUT OF FOUR LOCATIONS AND THERE
03:36:34 HASN'T BEEN OFFERED ANYTHING IN SIX MONTHS.
03:36:37 >> LITTLE STRANGE BUT NONETHELESS I DON'T THINK
03:36:41 THERE'S A VACANCY ISSUE. >> THERE IS NONE OBVIOUSLY.
03:36:44 SO THERE ARE CONCERNS ABOUT WHAT ARE THE FINANCIAL REASONS
03:36:49 WHY AND D.C. IS IS SELLING THESE AFTER WHAT FOUR FOR THANK
03:36:53 YOU FOR THE COMMENTS MOU PLEASE THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS
03:37:00 MA'AM. NEXT SPEAKER PLEASE WELCOME.
03:37:03 >> THANK YOU VERY MUCH PRESIDENT OF THE BOARD OF
03:37:08 SUPERVISORS AND GENERAL PUBLIC. GOOD AFTERNOON EVERYBODY.
03:37:11 I'VE BEEN HERE TWO TIMES ALREADY.
03:37:13 THIS IS MY THIRD TIME. I JUST ONCE OF THE BOARD OF
03:37:15 SUPERVISORS DO EMPATHIZE AND AT THE SAME TIME I'M CREATING THIS
03:37:19 AWARENESS SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND HOW I FEEL.
03:37:23 SO IMAGINE YOURSELF IN THIS SCENARIO, RIGHT?
03:37:26 YOU LIVE IN THE BUILDING AND YOU HAVE YOUR FLATMATE.
03:37:30 YOU THEN TALK TO EACH OTHER OVER SO YOU DON'T TALK TO
03:37:32 EVERYBODY THAT YOU SEE HAVING LEFT THE APARTMENT PROBABLY
03:37:37 LIKE TWO WEEKS AFTER YOU START HEARING YOUR FLATMATE VOICE
03:37:40 AND AFTER YOUR RESEARCH YOU GET TO REALIZE THAT IF THE
03:37:44 FLATMATE, THE SO-CALLED FLATMATE HAS ACCESS TO CERTAIN
03:37:48 TECHNOLOGY THAT CAN BE USED TO WHAT NUMBER ONE TO REDUCE YOUR
03:37:51 HEARTBEATS. NUMBER TWO TO REDUCE YOUR
03:37:53 OXYGEN INTAKE. YES.
03:37:56 NUMBER THREE TO SLOW DOWN YOUR DIGESTION.
03:38:00 SO LITERALLY THIS MACHINE CAN BE USED TO ACTUALLY REDUCE YOUR
03:38:04 METABOLISM. THE CHEMICAL REACTION THAT TAKE
03:38:05 PLACE IN YOUR BODY CAN YOU IMAGINE A RANDOM STRANGER
03:38:09 ORDERING HOUSES TO SEARCH TECHNOLOGY?
03:38:12 WE'RE TALKING ABOUT THE RETINA DUPONTS WE'RE TALKING ABOUT RID
03:38:15 OF TECHNOLOGY. >> THEY CAN USE THESE TO BUILD
03:38:16 VOICES TO YOU AND ACROSS YOU CALL YOU A GRACIOUS LAW.
03:38:23 TWO FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER IN THE EVENING HAVING DONE
03:38:24 NOTHING YOU MAY IN FACT DO SOMETHING.
03:38:28 THERE'S A COURT, RIGHT? THEY CAN USE THIS MACHINE TO
03:38:31 MANIPULATE YOUR DRINKS. THEY CAN USE THIS MACHINE TO
03:38:32 USE PICTURES AND WORDS TO YOUR THOUGHTS REAL TIME.
03:38:36 >> THESE THEY CAN BE USED TO ISOLATE YOU BECAUSE IF YOU'RE
03:38:40 TELLING PEOPLE THAT YOU'LL BE HEARING VOICES, NOBODY IS GOING
03:38:43 TO BELIEVE YOU. SO IF YOU HAVE A REPUTATION
03:38:44 THEY CAN TARNISH YOUR REPUTATION LITERALLY.
03:38:47 >> THIS MACHINE CAN BE USED TO ADMINISTER SHOCKS TO WAS BODY
03:38:51 TORTURE. THAT'S WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
03:38:55 THIS MACHINE CAN BE USED TO MANIPULATE WORDS AND MOTIONS.
03:38:58 >> YOU COULD BE HAPPY. YOU COULD BE HAPPY RIGHT NOW.
03:39:01 MAYBE YOU'RE DOING SOMETHING FUN.
03:39:02 THEY CAN CHANGE HOW YOU FEEL. >> BUT YET I MADE THE CASE WITH
03:39:07 THE POLICE ABOUT IT. THANK YOU, SIR, FOR YOUR
03:39:10 COMMENTS. IS WHY WE'RE SETTING THE TIMER

03:40:01 >> MY NAME IS RICHARD PETERSON .
03:40:05 PRESIDENT MANAGEMENT BOARD OF SUPERVISORS.
03:40:09 TYPICALLY I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M GOING TO SAY WHEN I GET UP HERE
03:40:11 AND I LISTEN TO THE OTHER PEOPLE.
03:40:14 BUT I THINK THE TOPIC OF TODAY REALLY IS PG AND E AND I DEPEND
03:40:21 ON PG NI AND ITS ELECTRICITY BUT YOU REALIZE HETCH HETCHY IS
03:40:28 OWNED BY SAN FRANCISCO. THAT'S WHERE MUCH OF THE ENERGY
03:40:34 IS GENERATED. MANY OF THE ROOFTOPS IN SAN
03:40:37 FRANCISCO ARE COVERED WITH SOLAR COLLECTORS OWNED BY THEIR
03:40:41 OWNERS BUT PGE IS INSERTING ITSELF INTO MAKE IT VERY
03:40:48 DIFFICULT TO GET OFF THE GRID. YOU STILL NEED TO BE ON THEIR
03:40:52 GRID. AND THE MOST ANNOYING THING
03:40:56 THAT I THINK THAT P, D AND E DOES IS NOT ONLY DO THEY TAKE
03:41:00 OUR ELECTRICITY BUT THEN THEY SELL IT BACK TO US AT
03:41:04 EXORBITANT RATES AND THEN THEY CHARGE FOR EXAMPLE I PAY AROUND
03:41:08 I ONLY HAVE A LITTLE COTTAGE AND DON'T USE MUCH ELECTRICITY.
03:41:12 >> $25 A MONTH BUT THAT'S $25 A MONTH FOR GREEN ENERGY.
03:41:18 >> AND WAIT A MINUTE. WHY SHOULD I PAY THAT?
03:41:22 I'M NOT GOING TO PAY THAT. IT'S PROBABLY THE SAME ENERGY
03:41:25 AND THEY IF YOU KNOW PG AND E, YOU KNOW THEY CHEAT.
03:41:30 >> THANK YOU. WELL I ACTUALLY I GOT THAT WAS
03:41:34 THE WARNING SIGNAL BUT I WON'T USE IT ALL UP.
03:41:37 I KNOW ALL YOU GUYS WANT TO GO HOME AND I DO TOO.
03:41:41 THESE ARE I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG I CAN CONTINUE COMING WITH ME
03:41:45 THESE MEETINGS THAT WHEN IT GETS DARK OUT LIKE A VAMPIRE I
03:41:51 CAN'T SEE. >> ANYWAY, THANKS.
03:41:55 THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENTS, MR. DUFFY.
03:41:56 WELCOME. >> I DON'T DUFFY I DON'T THINK
03:42:03 IT'S FAIR THAT ONLY ONE DISTRICT CAN HAVE NORTH BEACH.
03:42:06 I STILL REMEMBER THE SUBPOENA AT CAFE SUPPORT FOR A MONTH AGO
03:42:10 BUT THERE ARE OF COURSE EVERY DISTRICT ALL OF US I LIVE VERY
03:42:14 CLOSE TO LITTLE SAIGON WHICH IS A NICE PLACE WE ALL HAVE NICE
03:42:17 DISTRICTS. I THINK IT WAS A REALLY, REALLY
03:42:18 WAY TO KICK OFF GOOD NEIGHBOR WEEK BY THAT VOTE ABOUT DENYING
03:42:25 THE APPEAL TO GINNY. >> THAT WAS A REALLY GOOD WAY
03:42:26 TO START IT. OTTO YOU KNOW THE RULES.
03:42:29 >> OH, I'M JUST SAYING THAT OFTEN DURING CONCLUDED YOU
03:42:33 OFTEN DON'T SEE EVERYBODY LINING UP ON THE SAME SIDE.
