Supervisor yee lets go to roll call. [ roll call ] colleagues, today i am introducing a resolution recognizing the harmful impacts of the institutionalization of the youth of language to refer to formally incarcerated people surgerying all agencies in departments of the city and county of San Francisco to adopted personfirst language. Examples of personfirst language includes, formally incarcerated person, currently incarcerated persons, returning residents, and justice involved person ininstead of convict, fell on and everyday this job reminds me this job as power. As part of the plan the city describes traffic fatalities as occurring during collisions instead of accidents. As settled difference on the surface but important recommend indications. And accident is a responsibility of the individual and the result of a mistake and a system that depends on perfect behavior to produce ideal outcomes. A collision on the other hand is considered through a Public Safety lens and addressed to a comprehensive Public Policy and labels such as fell on, convict, offender parolee assign fault to the individual implicitly accuse them of some moral failure. This language has a culture in which were content to deny employment, housing, healthcare and professional licensing. Today the United States leads the world incarceration locking up a larger share of population 1 5 california residents currently has a criminal record. Our economy depends on the labor of these currently incarcerated people to introduce everything from military equipment to mcdonalds uniforms and safety depends on the thousands of incarcerated people who put their lives on the line to fight last years devastating wildfires. According to the american bar association, our occupational and Business Licenses laws contain over 27,000 restrictions on formally incarcerated people and argues of exclusionary language only adds to the barriers they face. Changing the way we speak about these individuals is far from a cureall for the isle o i will thank you to his leadership, the department of corrections, the wash Ton Department of corrections inside the United States department of justice have all adopted resolutions committing to use people first language. This resolution would not have been possible without the hard work of eric hander son, paula hernandez, jose bernal and jeffrey morris. I want to thank the Reentry Council in which i have the privilege of serving alongside some of the San Francisco most dedicated public servants. The hope the board will adopt and take people convicted. Supervisor peskin. Thank you, madam clerk. Colleagues, today i am introducing a resolution in support of California State Assembly bill 5. Sponsored by Assembly Woman lorena gonzales. Is passed through and going through the first Senate Hearing this week would cod fie a Supreme Court decision reclassifying many workers as employees. Late last month, supervisor mar and i held a passenger at the Public Safety neighborhood dg workers came out to share struggles making ends meet without a living minimum wage. Healthcare access of employees. During nearly two hour of public testimony, they asked to stand with gig workers by declaring our support for ab5. I hope you will join me in passing this resolution next week and would like to thank my co sponsors, supervisors peskin, and lee in his office who have the first draft of this resolution, id like to thank our labor partners who worked with my office on last months hearing as well as this resolution uf jobs with justice, the labor council, progressive Workers Alliance, the National DomesticWorkers Alliance and gig workers rising and erin for her work on the hearing and this resolution. I also have id like us to end todays meeting in memory a founder of one valencia street beloved and longest restaurants and institutions. It was born october 17th, 1979 in mexico one of more 10 siblings, he put family first from an early stage in the 1950s he made his way to california before arriving in San Francisco. Together with his brothers, chewy, jose and pablo, he will opened mexico lindo a restaurant that highlighted their homemade recipes and in 1968, he bought the building at 546 and moved his family in upstairs and opened his own restaurant. At the time, people thought it was a mistake to open a restaurant on valencia street insisting he would lose everything. This didnt dissuade him and his family who proudly operated it for the last 50 years. He is a true pillar of the community who enjoyed helping others. He fed the hungry and provided shelter to those in need. When he met people looking for work he would find odd jobs to help them out and helped the neighbors secure a grow green c. He was a humble man who never went to school and built his successful Small Business on his own. He became much more than a restaurant offering walls to host local artists and lending support to communities events he passed away may 20th, 2019. He was a loving son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, fatherfather and his four childn manage the restaurant and keep his dream alive. May he rest in peace and power and may his memory be a blessing, the rest i submit. Thank you, supervisor. Thank you, madam clerk. Colleagues. Few months ago in march, supervisor fewer we release aid fivepoint Small Business protection and promotion strategy in front of the old gold spike restaurant on columbus avenue which has long been vacant due to a seismic retro fit and a question able Property Owner who doesnt live in the city and county of San Francisco. A lot has paid out in other publications with regard to what the root causes of vacancies are. The largely, if you read some of those articles, absent of actual Small Business owners voices. Although they do like to quote Real Estate Brokers who think the answer is more formula retail. So we continue to hear from brokers and Property Owners but the escalating concerns from the actual Small Business community are often kicked down the road and since march, my office has been convening real Small Businesses and their owners to hear directly from them and as the hurdles theyve been facing. One of the conclusions were coming to is that one of the chief obstacles is the incredible amount of fees that they have to pay and let me see some of those fees. A 2,000 fee for in respecting toilets, an 800 fee for operating a mobile food facility in addition to hundreds of dollars for the inspection of combustible materials. A 7,000 fee to operate a pawnshop. Thousands of dollars to operate as a tour guide and the list goes on and on. Theyre are actually 200 valid fees that a Small Business might be liable for. Today, im submitting a letter of inquiry to the Planning Department requesting data since january 1st of 2015 on the length of time from application to final approval to open a Small Business and also submitting a letter of inkawartha reto the Controllers Office as to each and every one of those fees that hopefully we collectively can right size. This is actually feeing our Small Businesses to death. Theres no fee as great as the rent being paid from Small Businesses which is precisely why i hope all of you will support for march of 2020 the much discussed vacancy tax that hopefully will charge Property Owners who do not exercise Due Diligence to reexercise the spaces. On other matters, im introducing another infusion of funding for this acquisition and rehab of 937 clay street which is a product of our 2016 Affordable Housing acquisition and rehab bond and proposition c and these funds continue to help preserve valuable Affordable Housing for the most vulnerable populations in the city and county of San Francisco. I do have an item for the impair tive calender which has been co sponsored by each and every one of you. I want to thank a few people. Theyre quite capable of council and theresa mueller, our mayor london breed, who joined with mayors la cardo and shaft in writing a letter opposing late friday evening amendments to Assembly Bill 1054 which is the is Assembly Bill being pushed by the Governors Office to deal with the wildfire cost and how the Electrical Industry going to be stabilized but on friday evening, amendments were added to that bill that would prevent San Francisco and other municipalities or at least hinder San Francisco and other municipalities from acquiring pg e infrastructure during their bankruptcy or after that bankruptcy by giving additional powers to the notorious california Public Utilities commission. I want to publicly acknowledge our state senators scott winger, who courageously fought that yesterday in committee and decented on the floor of the senate last evening. The was the only democrat in the California State Senate to do so. Theres still hope on the assembly side. I want to thank my co sponsors supervisors brown and ronen and since introducing this to the imperative calender were later on well have to make findings that this is truly imperative and it truly is imperative and he grows its imperative because we only came to know about this after the agenda was published and if we fail to act, harm could be done to the city and county of San Francisco before our next Board Meeting a week from today. Id like to thank supervisors brown and ronen and my staff lee heppner and the others for drafting this resolution supporting Assembly Bill 1054 only if amended to strike the amendments that undermine San Franciscos authority to acquire assets of embattled Public Utilities, pacific gas and electric and i want to thank each and every member of the board here today who have since affixed their names as co sponsors. This is a shared imperative between the executive and legislative branches so i want to thank you for that. Finally, i would like to adjourn the Board Meeting in the memory of neo mallak who you can read in sam whitings obituary who passed away at age of 85. Found dead in death valley looking for a gold mine but used to pop up at my house at 10 00 at night knocking on the front door dis shelved and full of history. We will miss you. They have followed a regulation allowed what they have called mixed status families. Families that include members who immigration status makes them inhe will age able pro mating the assistance to cover only those family members considered eligible but now hud has proposed a new rule that would lead to the eviction of more than 100,000 people across the country. The rule would force every person under 62 living in federally subsidized Housing Assistance to undergo immigration status screenings by the department of homeland security. And in a brutal reversal of existing policy, hud would not allow mixed status families to remain together. Instead, families would have two impossible choices. Breakup or leave their homes. Imagine a mom perhaps undocumented, but just as likely someone with a visa who isnt eligible for a subsidy living in public house what is throw house children. The grandmother who lives with them and takes care of the kids sun documented. So either they all go or grandma goes. Imagine having to chose again your family and your home. The Mayors Office of housing and Community Development has project inside proposed rule would effect 164 deeply poor families in San Francisco. 680 people. Nearly half of them children. And its expect that many more who chose to leave out of fear. Ben carson justified the proposal rule by saying, its not that were mean hearted, its that were logical. You take care of your own first. The people he is attacking are our own. Our neighbors, our families. We cannot allow them to be turned out of their homes. I want to thank supervisors peskin, walton, mar, haney and fewer for co sponsoring this resolution and i hope you will join me in opposing this horrific potential policy change. The rest i submit. Clerk thank you. Have safai. Id like to be added to supervisor ronens resolution along with supervisor mandelman that has to do with ab5. The rest i submit. Clerk thank you. And supervisor walton. Thank you so much, madam clerk. Today i have introduction of a resolution and also a memoriam. Ill start with introduction of a resolution. Today i am introducing a resolution along with supervisor fewer to urge the office of Small Business to convene a Small Business economic Mitigation Working Group to outline economic mitigation measures and support of San Franciscos Small Businesses and mom and pop stores, corner stores, small grow sers and effecting bit e cigarette and flavored tobacco ban as well as other operational fees enacted by the city and county. This working group will be established in a next 60 days and would develop recommend recommendations. It would include but not limited to, one representative from the office of Small Business, one representative from the office of economic and Workforce Development, one representative from Small Business development center, one representative from the Small Business commission, the City Attorneys office, four Small Business representatives including one smoke shop representative, one Merchant Organization representative, two small grocer representatives, additional representatives may be sought from groups with expertise or experience in addressing or advocating for Small Business concerns. My office and supervisor fewer owes office is committed to helping our Small Businesses especially or mom and pop shops who have been effected by our recent legislation and we look forward to working together with the office of Small Business on this. I also want to add that our focus to ensure Small Businesses thrive is not just due to the prohibition of e cigarettes here in San Francisco. Its because the Small Businesses are the fabric of our communities. Thats what my colleagues and i put 5 million into mitigate the lost of revenue for businesses effected by construction projects, providing resources in the budget to enhance economic viability for commercial corridors and we will continue to help our Small Businesses be successful and i also want to thank supervisors brown and haney for their support of the workgroup. I want to end this meeting in memoriam of cesar cor nil yus young. He was born in Arkansas City arkansas. On october 27th, 1928. He was a world war ii and korean war veteran. After serving our country, mr. Young endeavored to better himself by obtaining a diploma from the pacific radio school in which he completed courses relating to theory and practice of radio and Television Servicing in 1955.

The rest i submit. Clerk thank you, supervisor walton. Mr. President , that concludes the production of new business. Supervisor yee thank you. Why dont we go to Public Comments at this point.

President yee, madam clerk, members of the board of supervisors, supervisor peskin, it pains me to inform you theres an individual living in the same building that i reside who i feel is a grave danger to the north beach and china town communities. This individuals name is stephen schwartz. He lives in unit number 9 of 730 broadway. I live in unit number 19 of 730 broadway. Stephen schwartz is receiving the up or the of the john day ditto and sons real estate firm. Mr. San tino de la rose. He is engage in illegal activity against me. He engages in criminal activity. Stephen schwartz admitted to me from his own mouth that he was under f. B. I. Investigation. I recall upon congresswoman nancy pelosi to make sure a federal investigation is i call upon the newspaper. Thank you, next speaker, please. Ive demonstrated well over several times that im a fair man. I dont care what skin color you are, if you get violated in front of me im going to Say Something about it. If i have to do something in front of a judge i will. Im upset about the issue pertaining to people being shot and murdered by cops. This is an example of what im talking about. Here is a toy gun. This is a hispanic in san jose that was murdered by the cops. Mr. Guerrero. This is what he had on halloween night part of his costume. He was shot 20 times. Understand me, by several cops in ca san jose and he was paid 4. 95 million. Understand me. My point is, its the inassault on my intill against and if you think me pay mario woods mother 400,000 for her son being shot 21 god damn times by a set of racist cops, you got another god damn thing coming. Here is your chance to see how fair you are to rescind that judgment for 400,000 back to the City Attorney and pay ms. Woods a minimum of 4. 95 million just like the judge ordered the victim who was shot by Police Officers in san jose. Is that clear . And if one of your relatives was shot by a Police Officer in the same manner, and you got paid a small time 400 million i would be speaking up for you the same way. Is that clear. More demonstrations. Justified my statement is submitted to this board and called mr. Rights exhibit number one. Is that clear . Is there anybody out there object to that. Now, here i come again. This is about your mission. You are 600 million that is a good deal. Im push that and i dont care about you getting credit for it either but i want to make sure here in San Francisco. I am here in support of supervisors fewer resolution on dehumanizing language. Weve worked very hard on this language and i wanted to give you all a story of why this is so important. Weve all told a lie before. How would you like to be introduced as a liar prior to your name . That is what we do everyday when we talk about people as felons, convicts, yul juveniles. I wanted to read a quote by eddy eddy, a criminal justice advocate who passed away five years ago. Supervisor fewer mentioned him and he was the first to talk about the dehumanizing language that comes with the term fell on ask excon. He said the worse part of repeatingedly hearing your negative definition of me is i began to believe it myself. For a man think it in his heart so he is. It followed that calling me an inmate, a convict, a prisoner, a fell on or offender indicates a lack of understanding and of who i am but more importantly what i can be. And this non binding resolution tells you when you pass criminal Justice Reform bills to take a moment and use person first. Its easy to say offender. But its so much easier on the selfis steem of people to say previously incarcerated person or person who has committed a crime. Recognizing that they are a person and traditionally when we talkp about the byrnes reportd racial dis parties, African Americans are impacted mostly by this kind of language. Again, thank you all. I see many other co sponsors came on and this was hard work and i appreciate it. Thank you. [ please stand by ] im here to share our support for the person for a language resolution. First are like to say the words of my fellow commissioner. It is an essential part of reclamation of the justice system. It motivates unbiased communication and is a step in fighting the tendency built into the justice system. The committee encourages the city of San Francisco to make their investment injustice evident in the word used throughout. I think she really says all, but in terms of us, actually the Reentry Council and supervisor viewer were very receptive in getting language to replace the word juvenile in this resolution , so we are very happy about that. Again, as youth, we dont want to be followed in every parts of our lives. We deserve a right to feel to move on and still feel empowered thank you so much and i hope to have your support for this resolution. Next speaker. Good afternoon. Im speaking on behalf of [indiscernible] it is really bad. Please speak directly into the microphone. And q. They are determined to destroy yes. It wont be the same with us. They are waiting relentlessly. [indiscernible] we are the poorest of the poor, we cannot battle with this financial crisis. Our financial problems are compounded and cannot continue making these payments. We have no confidence in the sfmta because they broke it and are not sending money to us. We appreciate your support. Please buy back our medallions and get us rid of this misery. The supervisor Good Behavior is priceless to us. It could win over hundreds of hearts. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker. Good afternoon. Thank you for supporting us. We have not seen a response on the s. S. Sfmta. I do feel like i am a hostage. I feel like i am a slave. A hostage because i cannot leave , it is to too expensive to support my family. I cannot support my family in this area. That is why i feel like a hostage. I cannot go any other place because im stuck in slavery with the medallion. If i didnt have the medallion, i could have gone some other city to serve my case. I feel like the American Dream is dead for me. What about my kids . Is there future dead, too. I wish you guys could just push them a little harder and get these things and lets have this Beautiful Life for my kids and we would pray for you forever and we would see that change because we live in america, we deserve the American Dream for us and for our family. I know you guys are working hard for us, we salute you, but it is not hard enough. They are still going under the water. They need to come up and fix this problem. I really appreciate it, god bless you guys and thank you for being there, otherwise if you werent there, we would still [indiscernible] thank you. I appreciate your kindness. God bless you. Thank you. Next speaker. Thank you very much. One thing i want to remind you for all of you guys, you look at this place and all this beautiful color on this side. Did you hear what he said . He said [indiscernible] he says very nice things, but most of these people are losers, america for them is suffering. [indiscernible] we want to keep the hope. I love this country. Fifty years i am fighting for anybody who says anything about this country. Dont do it like that, please. Get serious. [indiscernible] we cannot get to the airport. This is in suffering. Four hours waiting. Five hours, i am sorry, i have to tell you [indiscernible] you get exhausted mentally, please, make as be free. [indiscernible] thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon supervisors. My name is victoria, resident in district four. Regarding your votes to support the resolution to name the central subways and central subway station after rose pack. Some of you did it because you feel you were merely following the offices lead on this. It is understandable for you to do it but i have a couple of points for you to consider. One is that, what if the views of the authors of this bill do not represent district three or those of other districts . What does your support of him mean . Two, it is indisputable that this resolution is very controversial and has provided the Chinese Community and has angered the Chinese Community. Why do we want to aid to stir up the community . And three, it is a matter of the principal. San francisco is known for supporting the rights of the minority and religious freedoms. By agreeing to insert rose pak name [indiscernible] including the residents and people of religious faith who are affected by rose pak carrying the chinese come communist governments policies. I urge you to use your own judgement and principles on this issue which would definitely earn respect from the Chinese Community and your constituents. Thank you so much. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello, my name is kimberley. I have lived and worked in the pulp neighborhood for 15 years. We need more services to get people off the street for good and, pretty much please pass the resolution for the Navigation Center today. Thank you. Next speaker. Honorable supervisors, my name is chris. I am the chairperson of lower polk neighbors. Im here today in my own capacity. Im here today to urge you to pass a resolution for the house Navigation Center. Our neighborhood, among other neighborhoods has significant impacts with homelessness and we have an opportunity to provide significant resources in our neighborhood. We are supportive of it. Myself, my family, a number of my, you know, neighbors, merchants, folks in my organization, we believe that this is a message that you can send today to folks that you are supportive, as well, and i appreciate your consideration, but it also like to thank supervisor peskin for engaging with our organize i were Neighborhood Organization and spent some time on this issue, both broadly about having a Navigation Center within the district, as well as this specific location. We have had a dialogue for some time, this is an important step. Thank you so much. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello, my name is erica. I work for the lower poke lower poke community district. Im in support of the Navigation Center at the site. Thank you for the opportunity to let me speak about this most important issue facing our city. In our neighborhood, as in many other neighborhoods, the site of on housed people as an everyday reality and it has only gotten worse in the last few years. I believe that most san franciscans have become numb to the fact that these are human beings with stories, with dreams and with agency. We numb ourselves because we feel helpless. The problem is too fast, too big for one person to accomplish anything. The opportunity of our Navigation Center in our neighborhood is one that all san franciscans should support. These Navigation Centers are controversial. If it is not in our neighborhood , then the problem only persists on our streets and in our alleys and on our sidewalks. Please pass this resolution today. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello. My name is andrea. I have been a resident of district three for the last 25 years and i am also here to speak in support of the Navigation Center. As a neighbor who feeds the people in the alleys, and in my role as pizza lady for the past whatever many years, i used to worry at the lower poke benefit districts that cleaned up and beautified each alley and pushed people out, where would they go . Where they have gone is closer and closer to Navigation Centers this is a Perfect Place and opportunity because the few people who have been successful in helping have responded to the proximity of having that help right in front of them and i appreciate Aaron Peskins work, and especially the tireless work of the people of the lower poke Community Benefit district. That is a c. B. D. I would like to support, not the c. B. D. , but the pot retail stores. It is the exact kind of usage for a building that we have been hoping and praying for and i think most of the members of the surrounding Community Want to support it. Those same neighbors will be there whether this center is there or not. So how fabulous to have 80 beds and Outreach Services for them. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. My name is dan, i am the Community Liaison at [indiscernible] we are a rehearsal space and hotel and an ongoing construction project for musicians in the city. Im here to express my support and personally as a representative of our company, our support for the house Navigation Center.
