San francisco and reroute it to green spaces, work that continues today thanks to the momentum he built and i actually served on that same board of directors when it was first formed in the 1980s. By every account, including my own, he was a mentor and a friend to countless colleagues in the financial social justice and environmental fields. Earlier this year, his lifes work was honored with a dedication of the phil arnold trail in Golden Gate Park in february named in his honor. The trail maya goes through livk trees in the Northeast Corner of the park providing the type of respite from urban life that phil was so intent on preserving for fellow san franciscans. He married his wife of 33 years who i used to fondly and sometimes not so fondly refer to as the 12th member of the San Francisco board of supervisors many of the former deputy city controller monique in 1986 in addition to monique, and our hearts go out to her, he is survived by his sons, brother steve, nieces, christina and malia and grandson sage. Our condolences to them all and particularly monique. Supervisor peskin, can i just have us all be on the memorial. I would be delighted. Supervisor yee thank you. Ok. I think thats it for roll call. Madam clerk, lets go to Public Comments. Clerk its time for the public to comment. You will have two minutes to share your thoughts on topics that fall under the jurisdiction of the board of supervisors to includes items 3832 which did not go to committee. Your comments should be addressed to the board as a whole. I will redistrict you if you address a Single Member or audience. Public comment is not allowed on items that have been heard on Public Comment or during a board committee. Speakers using interpretation assistance will be allowed twice the amount of time to testify and if youd like to display a document on the overhead project projector, place jury document under the projector and ask for sfgov to show the document and row move it when you would like the screen to return to live coverage of the meeting. Supervisor yee go ahead. To all the anarchists here i would like to say that trump is the only president that is attending the pro life rally and i thank god everyday for president trump. And you know, i remember when paul hill protected his children there and took him nine months to execute him for that. The lady was interviewing him, he is a press pa terry minister and he said would you do it again. He said it wasnt easy to protect the children but i would protect them. Ralph, you know ralph northham, the governor there in virginia. He is on info wars. He said the baby can be born 40 weeks from conception, thats where are created by the almighty. It can be placed on the table and then you can shoot it, you can stab it, ralph likes to hang it up and throw darts at it. He likes that. I think about how god says the powers that be are ordained of god to punish evil doers. My bible says before jesus comes back, you know, that the sun will be dark and the moon will be turned to blood red. Wondering what that means. But you know, jesus said, its written in your law, he is referring to deuteronomy, the fifth book of moses, its written in your law the testimony of two men i am one ta bear witness of myself and my father, he bears witness of me. When we read in gods law, by the way the kings were commanded everyday to read the bible. We find its god says god shall not kill and the punishment for killing someone i see my time is up. Next speaker. Good afternoon. We are back again. The taxi medallion owners to talk about our issue and looks like we are keeping coming back and back but we feel that there is no action taken. We just feel like no one cares about us. Basically what we want is sf to give the money we put to this ma dill yans back and they can rent those medallions and make the default to the Taxi Companies and we put a lot of down payments and some of us we need that because theres no business in the city. I say that if it wasnt for the airport, we wouldnt make my any money. Because, a couple days ago, i had a doctor apartment and i api worked from 2 00 to 4 00 in the city. Believe it or not i had two fares and i made 25 an hour. So, that comes to like 12 and a half dollars an hour which is the minimum wage, right. So what we want is you guys have to, i mean, take actions and push sfmta to do something about our issue. In the contract, they agreed that if the medallion Sales Program fails theyre going to have to repurchase the medallions and even issue us free medallion. Thats in the contract. They should expect everything. They have to give up to their signature and do something about our issue. Thank you. Ive been in school all my life. I have three dock rat, two bachelors, two masters. I set out to say its very practical. I have a plan where i could solve this homeless problem across the country and im seeing its in germany and also in england so perhaps we need the federal government involved and the u. N. I did send an email to mr. Trumps office and he sent out people to l. A. And San Francisco to talk about housing the homeless and so fourth. He says that he started before so that probably the way for me to say that ok he has a plan and its my plan but im not going to talk about my plan. I need a contract first and im going to mention my plan because the government wont have to spend in any money in my plan. Im guaranteed this housing thing could end in 90 days to one year. Money comes no the government. He wants to use the federal buildings but as i said, i asked the chairman carson to let us have a conference and so that i could mention it once and i could be guaranteed that im going to be paid. By the way, if everybody was president obama no one knows but me. Im the man given this ideas and if i hadnt held him, he had nothing to do and he had no ideas and everybody would have been over and no one knows about me. So im not doing anything free again. Nor aim doing anything which im not going to be benefiting from. For my intellectual properties, and when i spend all the same and i cant live on my education, thats bad. In this housing move, i think that i need a contract and i need to have everybody involved so that i just mentioned once and we can move on. Also i have interested in Global Warming and i have a green plan. I notice that folks are talking about electric housing and electricity users so there we go again. Thank you, very much. Supervisor yee thank you, next speaker. Good afternoon. I am speaking on behalf of inaudible . I say the same thing again and again. Taxi ma cal ya medallion shoulde sold. Its Racial Discrimination with us. That caused destruction in taxi business. Uber has lift. No one thats consent. Its trust and no one why did they put us to death for payments. No one bans nor no one is willing for. Keep your ride share. Leave the ma cal yan to Cab Companies. They never allowed us medallions independently. We are not leaving medallions from companies, we are dealing with the catastrophic situation, we are limping on and it deprives us of sleep. We cannot sustain in the taxi business. Sfmta are calling to their argument with the union now its responsibilities. We cannot trust them anymore. All supervisors should write a notice for sftam for money fund. We waited two years. How issues has not been reinvolved yet. Its very painful. We have to strike. We want justice. Thank you. Good afternoon. Here again with the same issue as every week we have. So, i dont know how to make that you guys approximate belieu take the action of it because i feel like were just like tissue paper and just use it and throw it out because no one listens to our voice and believe me, were in a crisis. We have so many ma da medallion holders that killed themselves because of the stress. How much improvement do you need for that to believe that we are not lying here. Even the kids know. Every single individual knows about the medallion and uber things. What we needed, we are not aliens. Were part of the public and the city. When we serve the city for many years, we have a appreciation and we have all these good things but when the other interest that comes in like ride share, no one will know what we are. Like i see like were trapped and thrown in the darkroom and no one listening to us, no one looks at us. We have live in the darkroom so when we come see that light to get a our justice. Please, help us out. I appreciate it. Thank you so much. Hi, my name is hajeet and im making a request to the supervisors of San Francisco.

We do not want anything more than what we were told we were going to be given. In the envelope is 91 signatures of owners that want us to represent them. We are not part of anything other than the buyers association. Theres no union for us, were not part of any coalition and anything like that. The sfmpa now is allowing all the handicap vans to go unlimited time at the airport which takes them out of San Francisco to tend to our handicapped people here in the city. I do grow in avoiding them something but unlimited use at the airport of theyre waking home at 5 00 in the morning and going at home in midnight. Unlimited pick ups at the airport without waiting. Is that fair . Sfmta, look what theyve done to taylor and sixth street. You cant get up the street mr. Haney. Do you see what is happening . You made it more dangerous for pedestrians. We are going to want to sit down and talk with you guys. We will write out a plan to figure out what we need to do to satisfy the situation. You need to take the bank out of the equation.

All my life i was a proud San Francisco an and now im stuck for the first time in my life. I feel stuck. I dont want to be here anymore. Thats a shame. I thought you guys are the ones that will make San Francisco great. Its passed mayors and now its current mayors. Supervisor yee next speaker. Good afternoon, my name is jones and i am also a cab driver. Let me ask you one very simple question, what is the fate of my 250,000 that i have paid to the sfmt for the taxi medallion. If i day today or tomorrow what is the fate . Someone has the answer for that one . That 250,000 should be defended to my family or not . If it is being defended to my family, i would like to have it in writing. And the second thing is, do you guys have a family . Its a question for all board of supervisors and even the mayor. Do you have a family . I am a father of four. One of my daughters is coming everyday from hercules to sf state. You can figure out the bart and bus fare. My second daughter is uc davis. I have two children in hercules in high school. I am taking home everyday. Like 50, 60 sometimes 100. Do you guys think that i can live with that continuously . No. I have anxiety. I have a depression. I and i want you to help us. We are paying these Cab Companies so much money because i am driving for almost 30 years and we are paying them by the name of color scheme and today those who have color scheme it does not do anything for me. Why am i am paying 600 a month. I have raised this issue a couple of times before and i am raising this one again too. Please help us out and lower our expenses. If you are really a friend of the people of San Francisco and you want speakers time is concluded, sir. Supervisor yee next speaker, please. My name is helena and im supervisor ronens constituent and a volunteer with the Sunrise Movement bay area. I came here to talk about the climate emergency. I am humbled at all that ive heard today. From the car drivers about the people dying of fentanyl overdoses. I came here to say we need to connect the dots in terms of climate and Work Together and make things work. And i want to say that climate is an umbrella that Everything Else can fit under. We can look for what is th the h to a good future and look for a Just Transition for everybody. For the cab drivers medallion and for people who take drugs because theyre desperate or theyre addicted, right. Sometimes it starts with desperation. Ive been there. You are not going to solve the problem siloing things one or the other. Were not going to solve the problems unless we are brave. Unless we mandate that even for buildings that cant yet be designed perfectly with only electric heating, that they are electric ready for when that Technology Comes to pass, which will be soon. Weve heard it from architects. Weve heard it from engineers and weve heard it from the legal community. We need to join together, have different agencies Work Together, and make a truly Better Future for San Francisco and hopefully a Better Future for the world. Thank you. Supervisor yee next speaker. My name is Sarah Greenwald and im a constituent of supervisor stefani. Also a member of 350 San Francisco. About the taxi drivers, i would note theyre driving better cars whereas the ride hails are ice cars, internal Combustion Engine gas burners. I want to thank you, supervisor brown and supervisor mandelman. You reminded us the climate situation is terrible but the good news is we do have clean power available in this city partly because of what board of supervisors has done. We have clean power sf. We do not need to keep constructing New Buildings that use methane, which is a vicious Greenhouse Gas as youve all been aware of. And incentivization and banning methane and new municipal buildings is a start. I urge you to go further. We must be mindful that 75 of our new construction will be in the southeast corridor which currently suffers from some of the worst environmental injustice and pollution as you know. So its an Environmental Justice issue. And the new construction should all be methane free but lets at least make it electric ready and make clean power s f1 hundred renewablf 100 renewable. Supervisor yee next speaker. My name is John Anderson and im a constituent of supervisor stefani and a member of 350sf although today im speaking for myself. I too would like to comment on supervisor mandelman and browns proposals. Proposed ban on methane and new City Construction and incentivizing electric Ready Construction is a start. It shouldnt be confused with anymore than a first step. The recent special report from the International Panel on Climate Change emphasizes the importance of methane reductions only reducing methane will actually cool the climate in the short term. Carbon dioxide is going to be with us for a long time. Only decreasing methane in the next 10 years will get us a reasonable chance, not security foray voiding irreversible warming globally. Weve been asked by you to act like our house is on fire. When you sit in your apartment and people have been yelling fire for a while, and you are smelling smoke, it doesnt make sense to say oh, weve wet down 25 of our wall space and were in better shape than our neighbor who is asleep. It wont do. You need to grab a bucket. We need ordinances for prohibition on all new construction. We badly need requirements that new construction at least be electric ready. Supervisor yee thank you. Next speaker. Hello, my name is connie cox and im here from my company youth. I was here a couple months ago. I am an inventor and i couldnt bring my board in because it was bigger than the display board than what you allow in here so im going to see if i could get it up stairs. My whole premise of my business was to help raise funds kind of like our state lottery does. I cant do this without permission. I cant do this without a team. My games on bags really are a tremendous amount of games that you can use sensors, loyalty clubs and you could have competition between a High School Team or a football team. It could be incorporated into the online games that people play with football. The one thing i really like about it is it lends itself to raising money for our problems. Case in point, some of our most needed Services Just are not affordable by our taxes. But maybe they would be affordable by our fund. I dont think this is disrupting our state lottery but it would enhance it just as i think the other things that go on like that might seem disruptive from it it would actually add another marketplace and the other side of the bag game could be actually played by a corporate sponsor or hershey or a big name like that. I hope im not in trouble for saying that. I really need to get up stairs to the environmental meeting and i heard my bell ring. I did leave information last time. Ive been trying to get a municipalities on board with this for a decade and a half. And i hope and pray we can get going. I can get a team going and you would be on it. Thank you so much and have a great rest of your meeting. Thank you. I also signed up to talk at the next issue. But i really want to get up to environmental. Supervisor yee thank you, next speaker. Thank you. Good evening, supervisors. Actually, we came here all the time and we are explaining our problems. So, i just want to talk today. City of the government and San Francisco they would like to help us and were not able to help you guys, were not coming anymore. You have to decide today what the City Government wants to do. Because we want the money back. Theres nothing to say. The cab business is so backed up. So we are not making money. We are in trouble. Please help us and give us money back. This is very openly, Everybody Knows we are here. We are speaking in a different language and different actions. I think it was a long time supervisor and Everybody Knows why we are here. Just give us a couple minutes, supervisor or board of members and tell us what they can do something for us. Thank you. Supervisor yee next speaker. Tom gilberty. Many joan of arcs we experience some of them today with the young woman. Also this morning, great greate witnessing another joan of arc. Not a hurricane but a global Climate Change is going to be a catastrophe for everybody. Not just the south but it will hit us too. I was here and i had my 65 chevy van and we need parking spaces. Supervised parking spaces. I agree, i hope we can get some of them. I chatted about little tommy and me going out and getting our a. K. 47s with 100 round clips and getting u us canadian geese. How about San Francisco, 11 supervisors, the mayor, our legislatures, sign a we ban assault rifles and semi automatic city. I we know hope other cities join in that the task force on street drugs. Lets provide a safe injection site with a doctor who can prescribe and supply safe drugs to the people on the streets. I hope thats part of the task force. Vapors, fracking, fracking where they stuff poisons on to the ground to get out the last of the gas is equal to vaping. What people are putting in their lungs. Its poison now. Right now we need an internal peace corp. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker. Mr. President , dually elected members dem, neighbor activist. I have praise for the work youve done but theres one little thing after the global Climate Change i have to add on my comments to. Looking on the darker side of it. If in deed we are facing what seems like a biblical plague of toxins, calamities overdoses, violence, suicides, taxicab woes, military oblivion, all of these things i am rof whe improe focus on global Climate Change. Its really our only way out. I dont think the city is there yet. I do think that we have yet to really get to a mind set change where wore really going to focus on it. You know, all the times that ive been up to the Planning Commission we always argue, we always complain were not allowed to bring up cumulative impact. Its the way it is with Climate Change. Were not allowed to talk about the cities total cumulative impact of carbon emissions. The emissions of the residentses and workers. The shipping on bunker oil from asia. The impact of our consumption. Where those emissions occurs industrial sites all over the world from our consumption many of the destruction of our biosphere right here in the bay and the sea. Those are all things that are creating emissions that narrow focus on just San Francisco missions leave out the Bigger Picture and our approach so far and were really just a basket case and it may be difficult with you we should engage it. The things that have come out about Climate Change is that were facing, for every tenth of an increase in Global Warming is accelerates the future warming and thats resinnance and constructive interference and think of the tacoma narrows bridge. Supervisor yee thank you. Next speaker. I was going to say the medallion issue obviously weighs disproportionately on the middle eastern and African American communities. In all of our major cities and out of the suspiciously high incidents there were 560 fix this is 2017 which speaks volumes at this point furthering local rent control has proven a political dead end. I would like to see or hope to see if at all possible two or three dumpsters obtained at a reasonable sound and standard rate to see them placed in the tenderloin by the local rev use Collection Company one weekend each month over several successes and local residents who may lack vehicles can safely unload their aging unsafe appliances, old mattresses, broken furniture, paint solvents and other items in mass. Ideally the Fire Department and local Police Cadets would oversee rev use disposal at the dumpster sites. To interact with them to get to the public in the process. And then if possible, id like to see the Fire Department carry out voluntary unit inspections for Carbon Monoxide detectors, smoke alarms and for the possibility of a discovering and tagging poorly functioning or faulty gas furnaces. This would familiarize the Fire Department with a general building interior layouts and if it was popular with the public, you might consider doing the same in china town and the bay view and the mission districts. Supervisor yee thank you. Any other Public Comments . Seeing none. Public comment is now closed. Madam clerk, please call the for Adoption Committee agenda items 2832. Clerk items 2832 were introduce a unanimous vote is required for resolutions on First Reading today otherwise a member may require a resolution to go to committee.

Is that ok . Supervisor fewer. All right. Then, anything else, can we take this item same house same call without objection. This resolution is adopted unanimously. Madam clerk, please read the inmemorials. Todays meeting will be adjourned in memory of the following beloved individuals on behalf of the supervisor ronen for the late louise Alberto Quinones and supervisor mandelman, for the late ms. Tanis ryan heart and behalf of a motion made by supervisor peskin and president yee on the board of supervisors for the late mr. Phil arnold, our former colleagues, our hearts are broken for you monique. Supervisor yee that brings us to the end of our agenda. Madam clerk is there any further business before us today . That concludes our business for today. Supervisor yee thank you. We are adjourned. For the first time in nearly two decades fishers have been granted the legal right to sell fish directly to the package right off their boat to the public right off their boats in San Francisco. Its not only helping local fishers to stay afloat but its evoking the spirit of the wharf by resurfacing the traditional methods of selling fish. But how is it regulated . And what does it take for a boat to be transported into a Floating Fish market . Find out as we hop on board on this episode of whats next sf. Were here with the owner and the captain of the vessel pioneer. Its no coincidence that your boat is called the pioneer because its doing just that. Its the first boat in San Francisco to sell fish directly from the boat. How did you establish your boat into such a Floating Fish market . Well, you know, i always thought that it would be nice to be able to provide fresh fish to the locals because most of the fish markets, you would have to do a large amount of volume in order to bring in enough fish to cover the overhead. When you start selling to the public that volume is much less so it makes it hard to make enough money. So being able to do this is really its a big positive thing i think for the entire community. A very positive thing. As a thirdgeneration fisherman joe as his friends call him has been trawling the california waters for sustainably caught seafood since an early age. Since obtaining a permit to sell fish directly to the public he is able to serve fish at an affordable price. Right now were just selling what a lot of the markets like, flat fish and rock fish and what the public likes. So we have been working for many, many years and putting cameras in them. Theres the ability to short fish and we have panels that we open and close so we target the different species of fish by adjusting the net. And then not only that but then the net sort out the sizes which is really important. Joe brings in a lot of fish, around 20,000 pounds per fishing trip to be exact. We had one day one time that we sold almost 18,000 pounds. Its incredible. I know, its hard to imagine. But this wasnt always the case for joe. The markets that we have left in california, theyre few and far between, and they really are restrictive. Theyll let you fish for a couple months and shut you down. A lot of times its rough weather and if you cant make your delivery you will lose your rotation. Thats why theres hardly any boats left in california because of the market challenges. My boat was often sitting over here at the dock for years and i couldnt do anything with it because we had no market. The ability to go catch fish is fine, i had the permits, but you couldnt take them off your boat. That was until the Port Commission of San Francisco rallied behind them and voted unanimously to approve a Pilot Program to allow the fish to be sold directly to consumers right off their boats. The purpose of the program is to allow commercial fishers to sell their fish directly from their boats to the end consumer in a safe and orderly manner for the benefit of the overall Fishing Community at the port of San Francisco. We have limited the program to certain types of fish such as salmon, halibut, tuna and rock fish. Crab is restricted from this program because we did not want to interfere with the existing crab sales on Taylor Street and jefferson street. So this is not meant to favor one aspect of the fishing industry more than another. Its to basically to lift up the whole industry together. And if joe the program has been doing just that. It was almost breathtaking whenever i woke up one morning and i got my federal receiver, my first receivers license in the mail. And that gave me permission to actually take fish off my boat. Once we started to be able to sell, it opened things up a bit. Because now that we have that federal permit and i was able to ppetition the city council and getting permission from San Francisco to actually use the dock and to sell fish here, it was a big turning point. Because we really didnt think or know that wed get such a positive response from the public. And so were getting thousands of people coming down here buying fish every week and so thats pretty cool. They like the fish so much that they take pictures of it when they cook it and they send us all of these pictures and then they ask us, you know, constantly for certain types of fish now. And when they come down here the one thing that they say is that theyre so amazed that the fish is so fresh they could eat a little bit during the week and its still fresh all week in the refrigerator. So thats really cool. The fish is very fresh and the price is super. I dont think that you can get it anywhere in the bay area. I can see it, and i can stir fry it, wow, you can do anything you want. I just can say this is a good place to shop and you have a good experience. This Program Supports the Strategic Plan in terms of engagement, people being connected to the waterfront, and also economic vitality. Because its helping the fishermen to make ends meet. They have no guarantees in their businesses, not like some people, and we want to do everything that we can to help them to have a good and thriving business. How does it feel to be able to sell your fish locally kind of in the traditional way, like your grandfather probably did . When i was a kid and i used to work in my dads fish market, a lot of the markets that we sell to now are second and third and fourth generation markets. So i remember as a kid putting their tags on the boxes of fish that we shipped out of monterey and ship down to l. A. So its kind of cool that were still dealing with the same families. And this is probably about the only way that anyone can really survive in california is to sell your own fish. One of the advantages of this program is the Department People that pull in the fish, they can find out where they caught it and find out more about the fisherman and that adds to their experience. The feedback from the fishers has been very good and the feedback from the customers have very good. And theres a lot of people coming to the wharf now that might not have done so. In fact, theres people that go through the neighboring restaurants that are going to eat fish inside but before they go in they see the action on the dock and they want to kind of look at whats happening on the boat before they go in and they have a meal. So its generated some conversation down at the wharf and thats a good thing. As you can see by the line forming behind me getting ready to buy fish, the Pilot Program has been a huge success.

[ ] [ ] [ ] i had a break when i was on a major label for my musical career. I took a seven year break. And then i came back. I worked in the library for a long time. When i started working the San Francisco history centre, i noticed they had the hippie collection. I thought, if they have a hippie collection, they really need to have a punk collection as well. So i talked to the city archivist who is my boss. She was very interested. One of the things that i wanted to get to the library was the avengers collection. This is definitely a valuable poster. Because it is petty bone. It has that weird look because it was framed. It had something acid on it and something not acid framing it. We had to bring all of this stuff that had been piling up in my life here and make sure that the important parts of it got archived. It wasnt a big stretch for them to start collecting in the area of punk. We have a lot of great photos and flyers from that area and that. That i could donate myself. From theyre, i decided, you know, why not pursue other people and other bands and get them to donate as well . The historic moments in San Francisco, punk history, is the sex pistols concert which was at winterland. [ ] it brought all of the punks on the web west coast to San Francisco to see this show. The sex pistols played the east coast and then they play texas and a few places in the south and then they came directly to San Francisco. They skipped l. A. And they skipped most of the media centres. San francisco was really the biggest show for them pick it was their biggest show ever. Their tour manager was interested in managing the adventures, my band. We were asked to open to support the pistols way to that show. And the nuns were also asked to open the show. It was certainly the biggest crowd that we had ever played to. It was kind of terrifying but it did bring people all the way from vancouver, tee seattle, portland, san diego, all up and down the coast, and l. A. , obviously. To San Francisco to see this show. There are a lot of people who say that after they saw this show they thought they would start their own band. It was a great jumping off point for a lot of west coast punk. It was also, the pistols last show. In a way, it was the end of one era of punk and the beginning of a new one. The city of San Francisco didnt necessarily support punk rock. [ ] last, but certainly not least is a jello be opera. They are the punk rock candidate of the lead singer called the dead kennedys. If we are blaming anybody in San Francisco, we will just blame the dead kennedys. There you go. We had situations where concerts were cancelled due to flyers, obscene flyers that the city was thought that he thought was obscene that had been put up. The city of San Francisco has come around to embrace its musicians. When they have the centennial for city hall, they brought in all kinds of local musicians and i got to perform at that. That was, at in a way, and appreciation from the city of San Francisco for the musical legends. I feel like a lot of people in San Francisco dont realize what resources there are at the library. We had a film series, the s. F. Punk film series that i put together. It was nearly sold out every single night. People were so appreciative that someone was bringing this for them. It is free. Everything in the library is free. It it is also a Film Producer who has a film coming out. Maybe in 2018 about crime. What is the title of it . It is called San Francisco first and only rock n roll movie. Crime, 1978. [laughter] when i first went to the Art Institute before the adventures were formed in 77, i was going to be a painter. I did not know i would turn into a punk singer. I got back into painting and i mostly do portraiture and figurative painting. One of the things about this job here is i discovered some great resources for images for my painting. I was looking through these mug shot books that we have here that are from the 1920s. I did a whole series of a mug shot paintings from those books. They are in the San Francisco history centres s. F. Police department records. There are so many Different Things that the library provides for san franciscans that i feel like a lot of people are like, oh, i dont have a library card. Ive never been there. They need to come down and check it out and find out what we have. The people who are hiding stuff in their sellers and wondering what to do with these old photos or old junk, whether it is hippie stuff or punk stuff, or stuffestuff from their grandpar, if they bring it here to us, we can preserve it and archive it and make it available to the public in the future
