My property which held back the dirt, which he called the planter box, and there was a channel in between here which was filled with concrete, i believe, in 20102011 by his predecessor, who had the same leak that the appellant had last year. And i, unfortunately, allowed that neighbor to fill that channel with concrete. He claimed that that would stop his leak. And when inspector duffy came, the notice of violation was because we no longer had this air gap, so the original plan was to remove the concrete that had been poured by his predecessor. Obviously, the appellant did not like that course of action. He wanted me to try to fix his leak. We finally decided to go ahead and remove the planter box. I asked inspector duffy to come back again and discussed to him the plan, and he confirmed, again, that it was considered landscaping and a permit was not required. When we started the work, the appellant i called you know, after we removed the dirt, asked him to come and take a look so that he could see, you know, why his building was damaged. And i thought i had convinced him that it was a preexisting condition, and i allowed him to take a piece of the the concrete, which he is calling his party wall, and thinking that he was going to use that to sue the the seller who sold him the property. But unfortunately, that was not his plan, and now, were here. Hes gotten money from his Insurance Company by telling them that i damaged his building, and all he wants now is to fix his wall, which is fine, except i would like to first clear my notice of violations which he started. And thats what i told him in the mediation on monday. Let me clear my work first. Let me clear my notice of violation. It will be very quick, and he can fix his wall. If you have any other questions oh, let me show you another. Overhead, please, thank you. A lot of the damage you can see here, thats dry rot, and thats exactly what the director the directors here told him. We had, i believe, last month, that he had no siding on his building. Actually, and his foundation is below grade, and that is the reason why he had the leak problem, so okay. Thank you. Thank you. Okay. We can hear from the departments. Inspector duffy. Laplease enlighten us, inspector duffy. Joe duffy, dba. Its always a pity when Something Like this has to come before you. Its not the proper forum, in my opinion. People should be working this out. I went out there yesterday to see what was going on. I read the brief, and i was confused, as well, but as soon as i arrived there, i could see we have a bad situation. And obviously, the gentleman whos the appellant filed the complaint on 30th 15. I dont know why someone did not go to someone and say hey, ive got an issue with water coming into my building. Can we sort something out here, flashing, lets do some investigative work here and fix it. That obviously didnt happen, and it broke down. So now, were left with a situation if i could have the overhead. The permit itself, but i still think they need another permit, to comply with the notice of violation that donald did you have owe wrote, it still includes violation of a planter box. Maybe if you could move it up. So this is the permit holders property here. This is the front bay. You can see here where the retaining wall comes out at an angle way. I believe it originally ran right along the wall here of the neighbors property. I dont have photographs of that, but according to inspector duffy, thats what happened. The permit holder has relocated the wall, but whats really bad is that this is totally exposed to the weather on this gentlemans property, and for this permit holder not to allow even an emergency something to be done, like, some plastic, some building paper, something to stop this water getting in there is egregious in my opinion. You have to, at some point, realize that the damage thats been done to this building with this being exposed. So as soon as i got there, i issued a violation to 3019. When a building inspector sees this, weve got exposed framing, all sorts of issues that could come from this mold. I dont know theres people coming in the building, but what were asking is that this immediately gets sealed up, and then, they need to work on something where the gentleman can go in and fix the siding. Its nothing for a matter on peal. Im happy to stand in and help get this resolved. Its one of these situations where we see it probably more than we need to. Youve got two sets of gloves . Yeah. I know. They need to figure this out. But the other thing that happened then, as well, is for some reason, then, the appellant filed a new complaint with Housing Inspection Services as recently as august, and they ended up housing a Housing Inspector to go out, in addition to the earlier notice of violation, we now have another notice of violation and to mr. Louie. And an inspector mar went out there from housing. They dont normally get involved in this, which im not sure what happened, but he ended writing him up for the new retaining wall thats here. Now, inspector duffy said theres something in our code is this. The other issue i have with the photograph is mr. Louies concrete now seems to be touching his own wall, and thats going to cause his siding to rot, as well, so he probably needs to get some advice on how to flash properly. He probably needs a permit for this work because its definitely something that needs to be monitored, so i hope im making sense here, but this is definitely a dispute between two Property Owners that needs to get resolved asap. As early as tomorrow morning, there needs to be building paper on that wall. Now, we cant force people to go onto properties, nor can you, i believe, but ive seen this happen several times. It happened in sterling heights, where people had to get a permit to go onto the property, but this is a situation that needs to be addressed asap. No matter what happens here tonight with the permit, the permit here is fine. Its just something to create clearance away from that, which is what it does. Okay. And mr. No, go ahead. Weve heard testimony from boyd both sides, and the appellant brought in a piece of something, but the description was and to my experience, its normally buildingeen a bu a space, and a building. And the permit holder has indicated that the reason this water intrusion happened is because this foundation is below grade. While you were there, did you see any any signs of that there . No, i didnt. I wasnt able to go onto the property. I just these photographs that i took were from the street, and hes obviously got a lot of chairs and sofa and piled up there. Im not sure what thats about, but hes got a lot of stuff in the front yard. In my experience we goent get in the blame game when we go out there, we just write up what we see. But you can see theres a line there probably the concrete wall ran along. Whether it was below grade or above grade, there was a condition where water was able to get down there. He said he allowed someone onto the property a prior owner. A previous owner. I dont understand what that was about. The proper way to do that would be to flash the siding these have nothing to do with the permit. Exactly. These are issues that need to be resolved. Theyre here tonight to air out their dirty laundry at the board of appeals. So im not going to touch that. Why is the Housing Inspector looking and writing up a retaining wall outside of the units . Good question. I havent got to the bottom of it. What does that have to do with habitablity . I think you should bring that back to your department. I will, indeed. Thank you. Thank you. Just to clarify, as far as youre concerned, inspector duffy, theres no issues with the permit that is under appeal . Not really. Theres a drawing with it there. It just shows this clearance between the wall and the his the two properties, basically, and thats what you have now. Unfortunately, the next step is to fix the siding, the open wall thats just sitting there for seven months, i think we heard, and were coming into rainy season. Thats going to be a mess if its not fixed. At least some Emergency Repair take place, and i would encourage the Property Owner to let them in there to do at least a couple of hours work to stop that. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Is there any Public Comment on this item . Youre the own public here, so we figured it would be you. Welcome. Good evening. Well, thank you. My name is stephanie mosson. I live at 3819. Im here to speak about the hole. It when our neighbors redid their kind of patio area, dug into the side of our building, which has been exposed for months. We have had rat and mice problems. Theyre running through the walls. They have kept me up at night. With winter coming, im very afraid with other animals that could get in. Its a very large hole. It is larger than me, so i am here just not knowing necessarily both sides and whats happening, but just as a concerned renter, that we need this fixed asap. Thank you. How long are you finished . Im sorry. Oh, no, im finished. How long have you lived at the property . Three years. Okay. So you werent aware of the previous work that was done . Okay. I was not aware of the previous work. And wihen has the water intrusion been there the whole three years . There has been. I think it comes from various sources. I was not aware that it was coming from our neighbors side. Okay, and is it going directly into your unit . Does it affect your unit directly, directly besides the rodents . Okay. I only really see it in the entranceway of our apartment complex. Okay. Thank you very much. All right. Thank you. Okay. Is there any other Public Comment on this item . Okay. Seeing none, then, we will have rebuttal from the appellant. Mr. Chin, mr. Do, anything further . The patio is raised billion about fobillion about four or five steps, and if these patios were next to each other, they would be on even ground. So you can see there are a number of steps going up to the patio area. To the right of that is the planter and the chunk of concrete that mr. Do is holding was was his wall, of which mr. Louie took out, and now, he wont let him fix the wall. I understand the position of the board, this is not an issue of permit. However, it is something that mr. Louie just wont do anything until his permit gets cleared, and wet d appreciate the emergency content of this issue allow mr. Do access just to this patio, and thats all it is, and so he can fix his property. Yeah. I guess if anything, my ask would be as a condition of the permit to to sit there and actually the city can get permits in the first place, the condition of this permit would be to kind of sit there and say, you know, just allow him access to do this emergency fix, and then and then, we can go on our merry way, and my tenants dont have to worry about rats come into the building. I dont have to worry about my building being exposed, and yeah, thats all im asking. Thank you. Are you done . Were done. So just as as a note, mr. Do, this board cannot authorize anyone to enter somebodys property, and unfortunately, as the inspector has noted, this is a neighbor situation, and you and your neighbor need to i mean, we can ask him tonight to to try and let you do some emergency at least coverup, but thats really up to your neighbor. We dont have the power to enforce that someone comes and works on his property. So hopefully, you guys are going to be able to settle this out. Weve gone a five Hours Community mediation, and theyve asked us to come back. Hopefully, youll figure something out. Right, and i think the recommendation, based upon the building department, that emergency exists that mr. Louie has already agreed, he clears his permits, hes going to let us fix it. Okay. Perfect. Thank you. Mr. Louie, you have rebuttal. Im so glad i didnt miss this. Welcome back. I just want to clarify president hondas question about the below grade. Its no longer below grade because we have removed the dirt, but if you manual the dirt still being there, it used to be below grade, and that was the reason for the leakage problems. What else . At the mediation on monday, they insisted that i let him go fix his thing first before letting me clear my notice of violations, and i told him i could not do that, and the ree reason, i mentioned in my brief. I have his Insurance Company coming after me for 20,000, and i want them to come back and do a proper inspection. They didnt do that. They looked at it from the outside, so i need them to come back in and reinspect it before he covers up the evidence. Thank you. Okay. Thank you. Mr. Duffy, anything further . Sorry, president honda. I know youre in a rush away, but i know if the gentleman im missing dinner, but its okay. I know the gentleman wanted to let them in because he has his own violations, but if he would let him in to put some building paper onto fix the current problem, i would ask that. Mr. Duffy, we would ask the same thing. I know. I just want to say that on record. Thats all. So can the permit holder come up . Im sorry. That was a question we should have asked the last time. I apologize. Actually, today, i talked to them and made that proposal. I said ill let you come in and do some emergency stuff, and but they they didnt they didnt they didnt accept that. I did offer them today. So that is on the table. You would allow them to at least put building paper, not to do permanent work, but temporary work. Thats right. I offered that today, but they still insist to fix their work. Council, the matters submitted. Counsel or mr. Duffy . Db a has issued a temporary violation to make that happen within 24 hours, so thatll happen. Thats a different way of dealing with it. Im going to move that we deny the appeal on the basis that the permit was properly issued. Okay. On the motion, then, from the Vice President to deny this appeal on the basis that the permit was properly issued, Commission Commissioner [ roll call. ] and before we adjourn, i just want to make the parties just want to make the parties understand working for the city and county of San Francisco will immerse you in a vibrant and dynamic city thats on the forefront of economic growth, the arts, and social change.

Thank you for considering a career with the city and county of San Francisco. Happy holidays. Happy holidays. All right. Im glad to be here with our supervisors, Council District merchants, community mbz, but of course, were here to thank local 798, our Fire Department. What a what a challenging year that weve had. And i know our hearts always go out to the people who will put themselves in danger in order to save others. Time and time again, our firefighters, whether its fires up north or around the bay area, they jumped to it and saved a lot of peoples lives and property. But they give joy and can do that more than other people that we know that may not have that opportunity. This toy program is something that we all take great pride in, because it represents so much of our valve values of giving back and making care of children in our city so they can have a similar experience when the holidays come. Not everyone gets that same experience, but our firefighters and our union know how to do it. On that christmas day, they will make that extra effort as well to visit the families that didnt even have something that arrived for them. Thats a special treat. It is something that i value so much, that represents a city that keeps our city really strong. So, tommy, do you, to the union, to all of the members, to the Fire Department, congratulations on the toy program, reverberating a wonderful place, for the collection, and for its distribution and also to say thank you to each and every one of the members for the overthetop contributions to the families of the city. Happy holidays to you. [applause] thank you. Appreciate it. Good evening. I would like to welcome you to our johnny v. Toy haul, named after a firefighter. Johnny v. Left us years ago in a tragic accident, but hes never been forgotten and were offered to name this after him. Thanks to generous contributions, were standing in a beautiful, beautiful toy hall. It will allow us to better serve the program. Our toy program is the citys largest and nations oldest. It started in 1949, with firefighters fixing up old bikes. And it has grown to serving 40,000 children and delivering over 200,000 toys every year. [applause] this effort doesnt stop and start at christmas. Its a yearround effort. After the napa and sonoma fires, we sent toys up there immediately, to try to put some normalization into the childrens lives. In the next few days, were sending toys down to ventura county. We send toys to pediatric aids wards, cancer clinics, anywhere where theres a child in need. There is is done through the generosity of our donors and san franciscans that put toys in the red barrels that you see, in firehouses and lobbies and for me the Holiday Season kicks off when im dreaming home, frustrated, overworked, and i see firefighters carrying toys out of a building and it reminds us of what the holiday spirit is all about. What the Holiday Season means. How you cant forget people and you need to make sure that even in this rising economy that we dont leave the poorest behind. I want to thank our special partners that have made this possible. First and foremost, we have the academy of art, who let us sleep on our couch for five or six years now and deliver toys from their warehouse. At t, air bnb, ron calloway, San Francisco giants, barberie coast, alex turk and ground floor public affairs. And our elected family as well. Mayor ed lee, mark farrell, fiona ma, malia cohen, district supervisor, who will speak right now because shes giving me the look. Ladies and gentlemen, malia cohen. [applause] thank you. I want to recognize councillor safai and jeff sheehy. Local 78 has been incredible, whether theyre fighting fires or collecting toys or making chili, they know how to have a good time. I want to recognize the Board Members that are here. I think we have jill running around. And we have sally running the program. And i want to give a shoutout to clinton park also, and if there is any other staff persons that i missed, i apologize. Its just wonderful. Thank you for giving us a reason to come out here to district 10. Thank you for giving us a reason to bring a gift and to remind you, this is not the only opportunity. When you see a red barrel across the city, please, please donate a present. And also want to remind you to come on down to city hall because well have kris kringle in the house, as we do annual i will giving out toys and taking pictures. Again, i want to welcome you into our house in district 10 and lets let the Holiday Season begin. Thank you. [applause] now before our next speaker, i want to give a special thanks to mark leno who has set up this fundraising committee. And also a very, very special thanks to jill peeler and sale gizasa and sally jacobs, our volunteers that make this happen. They ruin their entire Christmas Season up to and including christmas morning, where theyre still giving out toys. A special thanks for making this happen every year. And our next speaker will be supervisor jeff sheehy. Thank you, tom. Its so great to be here with local 798. Tremendous work you do keeping us safe. Oldest Fire Department in the country. And this toy program is so amazing that you are able to do it yearround and help kids that lost everything due to fire. I know its been really hard up north. My motherinlaw lives up there. We had her for a while, which was interesting, when she evacuated. It was fun. Thank you to the donors making this possible. Its a great list of folks and your leadership on this, its fantastic. And happy holidays to everybody. This is really beautiful. And one of the great things that i was proud to do with my colleagues was get support for this building in last years budget round. And so i was very proud of that. It may have been the best thing that we did. But thank you, everyone, and happy holidays. [applause] all right, thank you, supervisor. And our next speaker and cochair will be mark leno. Thank you, senator. [applause] thank you, tom. I think we all knew tom as santa claus is a San Francisco firefighter. Dont you know when you are in San Francisco when you are in a union hall and there are chandeliers. Think of that, where else, but in our San Francisco. Its been a great honor to cochair this evening with our dear friend halah. Thank you. And if you have never been on the receiving end of a phone call with a request from halah, you want to say yes. And i have to say, no one works it like halah does. And thats why shes so in demand and so accomplished. So we all love this program so much for all the reasons stated. Tom mentioned over 40,000 disadvantaged children will have a smile on their face as a result of 200,000 plus toys that will be distributed. And the involvement it takes, the money it takes, is not insignificant. Let me add my thanks to our corporate sponsors, foundational sponsors, individual sponsors. There are a couple of things in life that we can count on. Number one, that the San FranciscoFire Fighters will be there in our hour of need. And that every season around this time, their hand will be in our pocket trying to raise money for toys for kids in need. And i think, tom, there is no doubt why were here. We want to be supportive of you and our supervisors, president reed, thank you for your leadership. I was going to introduce the mayor, but i dont think i have to do that anymore. I hand it back to you to please help me welcome our president of the board of supervisors, london breed. Thank you for supporting this program. When i was a kid in San Francisco, my grandmother to take me shopping to buy School Clothes or whatever else. We went at woolworths, kmart, things like that. And i would leave her and i would run to the toy section. And i would have a fit. Oftentimes, i was never able to leave walmart not walmart, but kmart or woolworths with a toy in my hand. I thought my grandmother was being mean, but the fact of the matter is, we couldnt afford to buy toys. She could barely afford to get us the clothes on our backs, which she oftentimes would put on layaway. And how fortunate that i had station 5 right down the street from my house and i knew no matter what i didnt get throughout the year that in december we would line up outside that door and get handed a bag of toys. [applause] what it does to put smiles on kids faces, when you hear the gunshots and craziness and everything around you, the time that you can pick up the toys, there is nothing else that matters at that time. No matter if im supervisor or anything else in this city, its a program near and dear to my heart, that it made a difference in my life. It took care of kids in my community and theyre consistently there every december, delivering the toys, delivering the bikes, delivering the smiles, delivering the love. And so i want to thank all of the sponsors and all of the people that are here to support this amazing program. We couldnt do it without you. Just this past monday we held an ethnic doll and book drive thanks to jill, over there with her mouth full. Jill and i worked together. They would donate to africanamerican art complex. But we did have a number of the challenges, with kids being africanamerican, we couldnt get a lot of africanamerican dolls. Having a doll that looks like you, makes a difference. This toy program this launched this ethnic doll and book drive that they do every single year to recognize that here in the city and county of San Francisco we come in all shapes and sizes, colors, races, everything that you can think of. And so all kids deserve an opportunity to smile during christmas with a toy, but more importantly, to get something that is going to make a difference and remind them that they are beautiful, that they are loved, and they are special. Again, thank you to each and every one of you for all the work that you continue to do. Thank you, tom oconnor, jill, sally, halah, and senator mark leno for the work that he did to make this happen. This is amazing, a great turnout. Lets keep the checks coming in. Lets keep the volunteers getting toys out to the kids in the community. Have a wonderful evening, everybody. [applause] thank you, supervisor. Our last speaker will be supervisor mark farrell. San francisco has been very good to the San Francisco firefighters. You treat us well, come ppensats well and our toy program is giving back to the program. And every once in a while, that thank you boomerangs and this year, supervisor mark farrell secured a 250,000 grant. And for that, were immensely thankful. It helped us to put the finishes on the chandeliers that state senator marck leno loves so muc. But without the leadership of this next supervisor, we couldnt have done it. Welcome supervisor mark farrell. [applause] i get to be the closer tonight. I dont think its because i secured the grant. I think its because im the only one in this room wearing green this evening. I see a lot of red out there. [laughter] i will be quick because im at the end here. A few things. First of all, to hala and the senator, thank you for cochairing this event. You deserve a ton of credit. My colleagues on the board, i mentioned this the other week. One of the best things that ive done as a parent since being at the board of supervisors, my wife and i take our three children down to station 1 and we go out and we rise with the officers, with the firefighters, into the tenderloin and other areas and hand out toys. As you think about being a parent, the best thing you can do is teach them that its better to give than receive. You are doing exactly that. Whether you financially contribute, whether you are out there giving the toys out yourselves, this is what its all about. This is the spirit of San Francisco. Im so proud to be a supporter here. I will always be a supporter, as i know everybody in this room will. Its a personal thing. As london mentioned, so personal to so many in so many ways. As we enter this Holiday Season, that we never forget those were trying to serve. I want to say on behalf of myself, my family, thank you for all that you do and thank you to 798 and to the firefighters in this room. Thank you for what you do for us every single day in San Francisco. Thanks, everyone. [applause] thank you, supervisors and all guests. 5 i want to thank you all to johnny v toy hall and thank you to sf realtors. Welcome and give generously.

We also provide both prend post exposure prophylactics for hiv prevention we also provide a range of womens reproductive Health Services including contraception, emergency contraception. Sometimes known as plan b. Pap smears and [inaudible]. We are was entirely [inaudible]people will come as soon as were open even a little before opening. Weight buries a lip it could be the first person here at your in and out within a few minutes. There are some days we do have a pretty considerable weight. In general, people can just walk right in and register with her front desk seen that day. My name is yvonne piper on the Nurse Practitioner here at sf city clinic. He was the first time i came to city clinic was a little intimidated. The first time i got treated for [inaudible]. I walked up to the redline and was greeted with a warm welcome im chad redden and anna client of city clinic even has had an std clinic since all the way back to 1911. At that time, the clinic was founded to provide std diagnosis treatment for sex workers. Theres been a big increase in std rates after the earthquake and the fire a lot of people were homeless and there were more sex work and were homeless sex workers. There were some Public Health experts who are pretty progressive for their time thought that by providing std diagnosis and treatmentsex workers that we might be able to get a handle on std rates in San Francisco. When youre at the clinic youre going to wait with whoever else is able to register at the front desk first. After you register your seat in the waiting room and wait to be seen. After you are called you come to the back and meet with a Healthcare Provider can we determine what kind of testing to do, what samples to collect what medication somebody might need. Plus prophylactics is an hiv prevention method highly effective it involves folks taking a daily pill to prevent hiv. Recommended both by the cdc, center for Disease Control and prevention, as well as fight sf dph, two individuals clients were elevated risk for hiv. I actually was in the project here when i first started here it was in trials. Im currently on prep. I do prep through city clinic. You know i get my tests read here regularly and i highly recommend prep a lot of patients inclined to think that theres no way they could afford to pay for prep. We really encourage people to come in and talk to one of our prep navigators. We find that we can help almost everyone find a way to access prep so its affordable for them. If you times we do have opponents would be on thursday morning. We have two different clinics going on at that time. When is womens Health Services. People can make an appointment either by calling them a dropping in or emailing us for that. We also have an hiv care clinic that happens on that morning as well also by appointment only. He was city clinic has been like home to me. I been coming here since 2011. My name iskim troy, client of city clinic. When i first learned i was hiv positive i do not know what it was. I felt my life would be just ending there but all the support they gave me and all the information i need to know was very helpful. So i [inaudible] hiv care with their health about a quarter of our patients are women. The rest, 75 are men and about half of the men who come here are gay men or other men who have sex with men. A small percent about 1 of our clients, identify as transgender. We ask at the front for 25 fee for services but we dont turn anyone away for funds. We also work with outside its going out so any amount people can pay we will be happy to accept. I get casted for a pap smear and i also informed the contraceptive method. Accessibility to the clinic was very easy. You can just walk in and talk to a registration staff. I feel im taken care of and im been supportive. All the information were collecting here is kept confidential. So this means we cant release your information without your explicit permission get a lot of folks are concerned especially come to a Sexual Health clinic unless you have signed a document that told us exactly who can receive your information, we can give it to anybody outside of our clinic. Trance men and women face really significant levels of discrimination and stigma in their daily lives. And in healthcare. Hiv and std rates in San Francisco are particularly and strikingly high were trans women. So we really try to make city clinic a place that strandsfriendly trance competent and transwelcoming everyone from the front desk to behind our amazement there are completely knowledgeable. They are friendly good for me being a sex worker, ive gone through a lot of difficult different different medical practice and sometimes they werent competent and were not friendly good they kind of made me feel like they slapped me on the hands but living the sex life that i do. I have been coming here for seven years. When i come here i know they my services are going to be met. To be confidential but i dont have to worry about anyone looking at me or making me feel less a visit with a clinician come take anywhere from 10 minutes if you have a straightforward concern, to over an hour if something goes on that needs a little bit more help. We have some testing with you on site. So all of our samples we collect here. Including blood draws. We sent to the lab from here so people will need to go elsewhere to get their specimens collect. Then we have a few test we do run on site. So those would be pregnancy test, hiv rapid test, and hepatitis b rapid test. People get those results the same day of their visit. I think its important for transgender, gender neutral people to understand this is the most confidence, the most comfortable and the most knowledgeable place that you can come to. Onsite we have condoms as well as depoprovera which is also known as [inaudible] shot. We can prescribe other forms of contraception. Pills, a patch and rain. We provide pap smears to women who are uninsured in San Francisco residents or, to women who are enrolled in a statefunded program called family pack. Pap smears are the recommendationrecommended Screening Test for monitoring for early signs of cervical cancer. We do have a fair amount of our own stuff the day of his we can try to get answers for folks while they are here. Whenever we have that as an option we like to do that obviously to get some diagnosed and treated on the same day as we can. In terms of how many people were able to see in a day, we say roughly 100 people. If people are very brief and straightforward visits, we can sternly see 100, maybe a little more. We might be understaffed that they would have a little complicated visits we might not see as many folks. So if we reach our target number of 100 patients early in the day we may close our doors early for droppings. To my best advice to be senior is get here early. We do have a website but its sf city clinic. Working theres a wealth of information on the website but our hours and our location. As well as a kind of kind of information about stds, hiv,theres a lot of information for providers on our list as well.
