Transcripts For SFGTV Government Access Programming 20240713

There is just some requirements ive worked around it a little bit. But i do think that child care would be very important. We do have some onisland services already, but were expecting the island to have a lot more families in the future. And we just want to make sure were not repeating some of the same issues that we have, you know, in the mainland of San Francisco where we have child care wait lists, and the wait lists are 2,000 people. Okay, great. And then lets see. Im also curious you cited examples, like mercy and other existing commercial uses on the island. And ive often wondered about whether or not those existing restaurants, which are great, and i go to them, but i wonder what the proportion of local islanders residing on the island are really using those restaurants and retail versus people who are coming from outside of the island . And just be cognizant i think it would be very important for us to make sure we have retail and restaurants that caters to the island residents as opposed to just visitors. Im sure that will come up during your retail study, but i hope we will hear more about that balance. And thats it. Thank you. Thank you very much. Lets go back to what were doing here. The vision actually, were developing a small city from scratch. Thats what Treasury Island and yoba island represent there. Yes, were going to have at the end of the day, almost 8,000 residents, but the vision of Treasure Island is to have the point of destination. So it is not only have all this retail. Everything were doing, we have to look at capacity. And we need to look at the location. And i know from your plan we have the retail corridor, everything all lined up. That is great. For us, here, we will look at the overall map and even see where if there could be if there are suggestions, i think we could do that. There are successful models all over the country. In fact, when we went to new york, we went to visit so many places, thanks to the commissioner, and some of these places have already in brooklyn yard and chelsea island, theyre already doing what we are doing here. They are successful models in the bay area. And some other places, in san diego, already in bart, what we are doing. At the end of the day, any mixed use retail should be, again, accommodating to the residents and also to the visitors out there. The next item on the agenda, if you know, has to do with the parks and open space. Thats going to be crucial because we do also have programs that are going to be tied to that. Everybody bearing in mind that youre not living free on Treasure Island and yoba island, we have all of these parks to maintain and all of the ongoing infrastructure, and all of them are going to be tied to the retail activities. And theyre going to be tied to the use of the parks and the open space. So the economic scale that needs to be ironed out here is also very important. So that the residents of the island, just like the San Francisco mainland, the residents go to where they want to go. You want to provide the basic amenities, but you also want to expand that so that we need to generate that outcome from all of the other places for the visitors, and also to make Treasure Island and yorba islands. You want to attract visitors and workshops, just like theyre doing. And now we have competitors in candlestick point, and well have competitors in chase. Have you seen this chase . You should borrow their plan. They are highly ambitious. In fact, their plan is to have everyone go to chase, and so what you have here is very impressive, but it is the beginning of this conversation, and, yes, you can see the commissioners here have a lot of ideas because most of us arent actively involved with planning, and we want to bring you back for further dia dialogues. Are there any questions from the audience . Oh, mr. Beck, please. I was just going to add then, in conjunction with the child care conversation, t. I. C. D. Has been taking the lead on the retail planning, but were both sitting down with one Treasure Island and looking at the communities as a whole and child care is a part of that, and the other aspects from the communitys facility plan, rooms and spaces, etc. Were having some conversations about that and where that is best located and distributed throughout the island. We also just were pointing out for people at home and in part of the conversation, that retail focus along the Island Center there, along the Southern Side of the island, also ties in with the transportation plan. The Ferry Terminal is there right in front of building one. The a. C. Transit and muni bus service terminate in front of hangar two. And then we have the onisland shuttle that takes people from that transportation hub from the island out to the rest of the island, but could take residents to the Grocery Store and back without leaving the island. So just the interplay between the Transportation Planning and the retail planning in that respect. Thank you. Anyone have to convey the last message here . Ours is a Public Private partnership. What were also doing here in educating the public is to make this a signature Public Private Partnership Development in the country. Everything we have here, the decisions, needs to be mutual. Any activity, open ferry or doing anything, please, we all need to be involved there. We have constituents we need to convey. So hearing about a ferry or something in the press, i dont think we want to go that way. These commissioners here should be part of that, and were out there, and were community leaders, and extremely very active in San Francisco, and never a day goes by do we not get asked just about everything in the press and everywhere. And so we are working alongside here to make sure that every decision, public decision that were going to be making on the island, and just go with all of our partners, s. F. C. T. A. , and everybody, this commission, and any of the signatures, and how we want to embark on doing that, we all need to be together so we can convey to the city what we are doing, and what this project translates, and we provide the platform into doing this, communicating with the public. So naturally, everything should come before us, before it even gets out there. So please, help to convey that to everyone. Thank you, sir. Next on the agenda . Item number 6, parks operations update. Ill be presenting on this item today. Martin wiggins, who is managing the design and construction of the parks and also along with mary ann, playing a leading role in this work, is here. So today i just wanted to lay out the early parks delivery schedule. Weve talked generally about parks, but i kind of wanted to list out over the next couple of years which parks we expect to come online. Walk through our progress on developing hilltop park o. M m. Manual, and then some of the status of the maintenance yard requirements that weve been developing. So during next fiscal year, towards the end of the fiscal year, we expect eastern hilltop park, so this is the we talk about hilltop park in the eastern and western sides. The western side is where the fujimoto sculpture will be. Eastern hilltop park is where the signal tower used to be. It is a smaller portion of the park. The eastern portion we expect to complete construction late next fiscal year, as well as potentially the dog park on yorba buena road being completed in that timeframe, and being turned over to tida for operation. In fiscal year 21 22, we expect several more parks to be coming on line. The western hilltop park, including the side of the piece, clipper cove beach, the storm Water Gardens on yorba buena islands, the marina plaza, the cultural 1 park, where the chapel is, and the first block of the city side park. So well be needing to plan in next years budget, even if it is only for a few months, to maintain the eastern hilltop park in yorba buena island dog park, but the following fiscal year well have many more facilities coming in over the course of that year. So for hilltop park, o o. M. N. Manual, we have the larger o. M. Standards, that are setting the standards of maintenance islandwide, but this hilltop park will be the heights specific element for the specific finishes anand plantings within hilltop park. It will inform our development for next year. The draft table of contents that weve developed, and there is a little more meat behind this, but i wanted to keep it at a high level today. Defining the levels of service for maintenance in the park, aggregating the warranty information, both contractor warranties for plants establishment and other things, as well as the physical warranties of the Equipment Installed in the park. And the landscaping section, including habitat and management elements, the planting concept and strategy for the park, and the planning locations and types and irrigation systems. Site furnishings, and then the site paving, lighting and electrical, and special features of the park, including not in this not in the eastern hilltop park, but any sculpture, art pieces, slope maintenance, these salvaged water tanks on both high points in the eastern and western park that will be converted into landscape elements, as well as trails and restoration areas. Special guidelines, and then really getting into the details of the site Service Guidelines and check lists, so these will be kind of the daily, weekly, monthly, seasonal and annual check lists for maintenance and inspection. Covering lawn, ground cover, tree and shrub care, guidelines for irrigation, tree pruning, weeding, integrative Pest Management programs, the fences and site furnishings, and Janitorial Services and standards, including litter, graffiti removal, sweeping and other minor services. And then the maintenance of lighting, electrical, plumbing and other equipment, as well as site drainage maintenance and observation and reporting of items requiring repair. On the maintenance yard program requirements, up front there is just the space required for the vehicles and equipment that maintenance forces will be utilizing. Preliminary estimate is 15 or more vehicles, including lightduty trucks, heavyduty trucks, heavy equipment, and potentially some rechargeable kind of coachman, small vehicles as well. E. V. Charging facilities, bike racks and storage, and then material storage for oil amendments, mulch and other surfacing materials, plantings, street furniture, backstock for garbage cans, liners, benches, light poles. Materials in support of events within the parks and open space. And then administrative and engineering spaces, offices, record storage, conference room, shower and locker room facilities, warehouse for the storage of equipment and tools, as well as waste management. Well need to bring the debris from the neighborhood, well need to do some onsite processing before that material is put into compactors for removal by recology, as well as composting of green waste. Translating these needs into space requirements, were looking at a yard of roughly 4500 square feet. And administrative and Engineering Building of 500 square feet, 450 to 600 square feet, a warehouse of at least 400 square feet. And then not in these areas were still evaluating it, which is any area required for a nursery operation, if we wanted to have that on the island and it wasnt incorporated into the urban farm area, but there is a potential partnership or leveraging of the urban farm, as we expect the maintenance arm will be located on the edge of the urban farm. And then satellite facilities and a potential y. B. I. Annex, and locations for temporary storage of trash as it is collected from individual cans, before it is hauled back to the Central Location for processing. As well as small tools and other equipment that you wouldnt want to have to run back and forth to the main yard on a frequent basis. So as we go forward towards january, again, really focusing on producing the draft Treasure Island parks code, so we have initiate a Public Outreach and Comment Period before eventually taking that to the board of supervisors. The development of maintenance standards, you know, having that draft maintenance standards manual, as well as finalizing the o. M. Manual, as well as the budget for next year. With that, ill take questions. Yes. Thank you, bob, for getting to the point where we are talking about the operations and maintenance manual. It is something that weve been asking for. And i think the budget that goes along with this is something that were also waiting for, that is in the process of being developed. And so were hoping to see that some time soon. Yes. The in each and every part of this, there is long discussions that can be had. So this is sort of an overall. I think that the one big comment that i would like to make is the importance of sustainability. And in the overlay of all that we do on Treasure Island, and especially as we restore the habitat, the natural habitat for birds and vegetation, that we look at sustainability as being the underlying principle for all that we do with regards to the landscape that is on Treasure Island. I actually just spent a week at the new York Botanical garden i mentioned that the other day and i was so impressed with how they are managing that sustainability in everything that they did, from the soils, from the hydrology, to the exroafting, composting i thiy have about 250 acres as well. And i would like to have that particular event, as we look at the operations and maintenance manual, and as we draw up the plans for it. Each one of these topics, i think, we can certainly delve into. Perhaps not here, but what i would like to suggest, actually, is that we will set up a committee on the board to look on sustainability. We do have ike, who is with the academy of sciences, who i think can also bring resources to us, ideas to us. Id like to see some collaborations with other institutions in the city, like the San Francisco Botanical Garden as well, as we look at what were going to do in all of these different areas. For instance, i do think that we will need to have a horticultural staff that is knowledgeable about the plants that we plant, what their requirements are, and thats something that i would like to see furthered. The composting facility, for instance, it needs a wide area. And i think i am hopeful that we can have a lot of our soil a lot of our soil and the compost is like gold for the plants, and that we can have a big enough facility that we can process our own green material and u. S. It for island soil. And so id like for you to look specifically at that composting facility because i dont think that the yard of 4500 square feet is going to be sufficient, if you youre really having a sufficient compost facility. And we can look at other models as well. I think in general today, thats my overriding comment. But in each one of these areas, such as the Pest Management system, you know, the type of plantings that were going to have, the type of irrigation all of that, i think we can have further conversations on. And so i look forward to having the draft manual and having specific discussions on each some of the major topics in that manual. Thank you. Commissioner lye . I would add that i would be supportive of a new committee focused on sustainability, that director sonn had mentioned. If were going to set up a new community, focus on that umbrella, and it should probably cover other topics of sustainability across the island, including continuing to evaluate our Renewal Energy program, as well as our all of our great water systems. I think there is a lot of things on the island that touches sustainability or resiliency issues, and because weve done a lot of preplanning around the islands green efforts, i think it probably makes sense to have a dedicated time where we can talk about these issues more specifically. Thanks. Yes. Thank you. And i also am very in agreement with that. And, concurrently, we also need to be talking about the maintenance, the management of the parks. I think all of what youve done today is really great, or, actually, part of the program that we need to do. However, the overriding issue that we need to resolve and we need to work on immediately, simultaneously, it is about the parks maintenance. We saw, again, successful models on the east coast and all over the place. What we have here is a great opportunity to collaborate and also do things that San Francisco has never done before. I think one of the struggling issues in the city, after the dissolution of the San Francisco Development Agencies that we have created all these facilities, all these parks, and now we have to grapple with the maintenance of them. With Treasure Island, we know what the issues are, and we also know where we want to go, especially since, again, i need to refer to the point of destination, and treasure and yorba buena must also be selfsustainable, also. Whatever the proceeds we get and how we manage all of these parks goes back to the infrastructure, goes back to the maintenance, goes back to making this a vibrant place that you really want it to be. So this is great. And we will continue this dialogue. Thank you, mr. Beck, for this information. Okay. Any other Public Comments on this particular item . None . Okay. Go to the next item. Item number 7, discussion of future agenda items by directors. Okay, commissioners, any i think we will continue to parks open space, and in particular, we would like to see some movement, again, on the management. This is a very, very important matter. Thank you. Let me see. Any other suggestions, commissioners . Im sure you can relay that later, what you would like to see in future agenda. Okay, thank you all for being here and for all of those watching remotely and for the staff and our development partners. Thank you. Have a great day. The meeting is adjourned. Thank you. Good afternoon, everyone. Lets try that again. Good afternoon. My name is harold shields and im proud to be the Community School director here at burton high school. We are here today to celebrate one of our very successful programs, the ace program which was a sixweek learning workbased opportunity for our students. Before i introduce the High School Choir in the city of San Francisco that is the best, i want to say thank you to mayor breed for her opportunities for all initiatives and thank principal thomas for working with us, as well as my staff sara kong and mubina shaik for organizing and directing the success of our summer program. Here we have Career Pathways where we try to ensure that our students have access to college and careerreadiness opportunities. We are doing our absolute best to ensure that our business and Industry Partners here in the city recognize the talent that our students have here at burton and the rest of the city, so that our talent here locally can stay here locally and be part of our future workforce. Now, without further ado, the burton High School Choir. [ applause ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [singing roar] [ ] [ cheering and applause ]. Mayor breed hello, everyone. Im San Francisco mayor london breed, and i am so excited to be here today. Hello. First of all, i love katy perrys version, but i will buy that single if you guys to upload it. Beautiful. Thank you so much to the amazing choir that burton has been traditionally known for every since i was in high school, which wasnt actually that long ago. Burton always had an incredible choir and was an incredible force in this city for academics and so many things. So it really is an honor to be here, because this initiative, opportunities for all, is something that is near and dear in my heart. I am so fortunate because when i was in high school, you know, there was not really a lot of opportunities to learn and to grow and to figure out what i wanted to do in life. I grew up in the western edition in the philmore community in Public Housing where my grandmother raised me. It was so easy to turn to some of the negative activity that existed in my community. There was drug using, drug dealing, theft, all kinds of stuff that honestly, sadly, so many of the people that i grew up with ended up going down the wrong path. I think that a really important turning point in my life happened when i got that first job. I was 14 and i got a job through the mayors Youth Employment and training program. [ laughter ]. Mayor breed and i was able to earn my own money because my grandmother was getting welfare and food stamps and all this stuff for us and we didnt have a lot. The ability to earn my own money and make some choices for myself, but also choices for my future, was so important. Because it wasnt just about the money that i earned, it was about the skills that i earned. You wouldnt believe it. Im mayor now and i dress nice, but i showed up the first day of my internship with some of you might have done this, with a seethrough shirt and the cutoff jeans and all that kind of stuff. It was the style back then, but the fact is thats really not how youre supposed to show up in a workplace. The people that i worked for, they didnt just fire me and say youre not dressed appropriately. They took the time to explain to me why in this environment it was important to address like a professional. When i answered the phone like, who you looking for . What do you want . They said, no, they turned it into a script saying this is london breed, thank you for calling. How may i help you . They didnt just give up on me. I was a handful as a teenager, believe it or not. And this internship opened the doors of opportunity for me to not only work in the summer and get paid to work and buy my own School Clothes and all the things that i really wanted, but it gave me an opportunity to learn and grow. And, in fact, because of the relationship that developed during that internship, i was given a job yearround. So after school i would go straight on the bus to philmore and oak to the family school. I would work and do my homework there. I had an incredible number of adults who were great mentors and supporters. Its where i learned about College Opportunities and what i can do with my future. Before that, i dont think i had any plans what would happen in the future. What i saw around me was something completely different. Here was a door that was opened. So when i became mayor, there was nothing more important to me than making sure that young people in the city have access to a paid internship in any capacity to learn about any industry you want. Because let me tell you something, not everybody i grew up with got the same opportunity. So many people that i grew up with, including my family members, ended up in the criminal justice system, ended up, sadly, on drugs, ended up, sadly, dead from gun violence. I cant help but think where did we go wrong and how do we make sure as a city that no one falls through the cracks. Thats why i started opportunities for all because i never ever want any young person to be turned away for an opportunity to learn to grow and thrive. Thats why were taking this message to you because we want you to be a part of opportunities for all. We want you to know about the possibilities, whether its working for any City Department or running the airlines. Today were joined by united airlines, who i basically reached out to along with so many other companies in San Francisco. We have all these Tech Companies and healthcare companies, all this network, theres so many opportunities, where you can not only work for these companies, you can start your own and you can run these businesses. So we want you all to be exposed to whats possible. The way that youre successful is when you know whats out there and you decide what you want to do in life. So today united has agreed to an incredible partnership, where they are not only investing the dollars to help pay for the internship, they are providing students with paid internships, to work in various capacities on the airlines, theyre providing transportation to the airport, and theyre providing airline tickets. [ applause ]. Mayor breed so im going to let janet talk a little bit more about the details of what this means, but i also want all the young people who are here today to understand the importance of thinking about your future, because before you know it, youre going to be 18. Like my grandmother did, she was making me if any for my own toilet paper. Ms. Brown did not pay. I had to give her rent money when i was working and everything else. At the same time, it wasnt because she was trying to punish me. She was trying to get me ready for the real world. She was trying to get me ready to take care of myself. Ultimately, when you become adults, youre going to have the responsibility of taking care of yourself. Ultimately as mayor, because of what happened in the past in this city and the loss of so many of my friends and family members, i want to make sure that we dont continue to make the same mistakes. I want you all to grow and to thrive in this city. I want you to be able to afford to live here when you become adults. Thats my goal, the future of San Francisco, and you all, all of you here, at burton, you all are the future of San Francisco. So i just wanted to take the opportunity to thank you all so much for just really being here and expressing interest in this incredible program. We came here because we wanted to bring the program directly to you. I also want to recognize jenny lam who is one of the members of the school board. [ applause ]. Mayor breed all of the students here and also ivar from the airport. Hes the guy who runs the airport. Take a good look at ivar. Hes going to be retiring soon, so whos going to take over his job . This guy makes some real money running the airport. I want you to think about that in terms of these opportunities. Janet from united, please come up and share a few words. Thank you so much, mayor breed. Lets give her a round of applause. If i may, i just want to say when i hear your story, its an unbelievable inspiration to me and i know it is to so many of you. Its not just getting a job, but mayor london breed is managing and running one of the most complex cities in the world with lots of challenges. Every day she works on machine solving. And then to come and spend the time with us to inspire. Please give her another warm welcome and round of applause and it thank you for your leadership and inspiration on this. We appreciate it. I would like to make a few introductions. Matt miller, my colleague is San Francisco Vice President hub who runs our operation. Behind me, you have lots of our employees in various roles that we do at s. F. O. I just want to share with you why united is here. We have been in this community for 90 years. We are part of the fabric of San Francisco. We have 12,000 employees throughout the bay area region, where they work, live, play, and volunteer. So we are deeply wedded to all of the issues within this region in San Francisco, and we very much want to be part of the future and making sure that the future is bright. There is no better way to do that than to invest in students and in very meaningful ways. So i could not be more proud of the fact that we are here to announce a 300,000 partnership with opportunities for all. [ applause ]. While the money is significant, what im most proud of is this is a partnership with opportunities for all for the long term. We want to ensure that the students that come and work with us in various internships have meaningful skills that will give you a lifelong set of factors and skills that you could apply to jobs with us, hopefully, but jobs anywhere. As the mayor said, its aviation, its tickets to go see the world. We travel to more locations within california and we have San Franciscos gateway to the world. We are very excited to offer this opportunity and very excited to partner with the mayor. On behalf of everyone with us today at united, we want to thank you for being here. We want to invite everybody who is interested in applying to come and join us. We very much would like you to make an application for one of our internships. Its now with great honor that i get to introduce one of our employees who is a United Customer Service representative and a boys and girls club 2015 youth of the year and is the product of one of these types of internships. So please join me in welcoming carmen sousa. [ applause ]. So im carmen sousa. I, like many of you, am a San Francisco native and born and raised in the mission. I went to school all over the city in the bayview and the tenderloin in the mission, all over the place. So i first started off also through the mayor i also started working at 14th through mayeep and was able to get all these different Job Opportunities and eventually started working with the boys and girls club which i was a longterm member with since i was 6 or 7 years old. Through that club and mayeep, i was able to learn all these different Job Opportunities and how to jobreadiness programs, like job resumes and all that. So [ applause ]. And so i first got introduced with united with the boys and girls club when i first turned 18 years old. Luckily through them i was able to learn even more, not only with the boys and girls club and mayeep was ready to get me ready for a new job, but i feel united was able to push me with an extra step knowing this is a real job with real responsibilities, youre dealing with real people. I just wanted to let you all know that anything is pretty much possible. Ive been working with united for four years now and been able to travel all over the world. Its been a really great thing for someone from the city whos never been even outside of california. Thats it. Great job, carmen. Born here and flying all over the world could be you as well. Thank you. Our appreciation to mayor breed for being the inspiration for this. Thank you all and have a great day. Mayor breed last but not least, sheryl davis who runs the program, the director of the Human Rights Commission here in San Francisco. Sheryl and i did a lot of work togeth together. Everything centred around helping to make sure that young people grow and thrive. Now we have a bigger platform to do it and impact the entire city. So we are counting on you, young people, to step up and step out and be successful because im going to be retiring in a couple of years. So i want you to be prepared to take my place. Thats the whole point. I could tell you got me. Youre ready, yes. So with that, sister davis, can you come on up and tell the young folks how they can apply for opportunities for all because i want you to start now and i also want to make sure that we grow this program so its not just the summer. We want to make sure that we are doing this yearround and we are going to hold all the Big Companies accountable who do business accountable to participate in this program which is a future for our young folks all over the city. Ms. Davis. Thank you, mayor. Give another round for mayor breed. I see you guys are already colorcoordinated. Youre ready to step into it. I would say the quick way to do this is harold shields here. He is going to be point for us to coordinate some of that. I saw patsy and john also. I know that they are doing work here and supporting the community. Saida is here from hope s. F. All of these are partners. Principal thomas knows how to get in touch with us. We want to start the process. If you are serious and ready, united has a plan. Were working with them to get folks through that. I see the collective team and others. There are lots of people here. I would say you start with knocking on harolds door, making sure hes got your name and number and hes connected. Hes got all the stuff. We do have the app. You have to go to opps. Org and thats where you register. We can get you all of that. Harold is going to make sure you dont get lost in any of the process. The united process is a very specific process. Anybody whos ever had to go through security at the airport, its 20 times harder to get a job at the airport. We want to get you ready for that. We will help you. I think we have to start now for you to have a job in three months at the airport. Lets get it started. Im here today. Cathy and amelia. Oppsforall. Org is where you go. Thank you. [ applause ]. Go back to class. [ laughter ] it did take a village. I was really lucky when i was 14 years old to get an internship. The difference that it made for me is i had a job, but there were other people who didnt have a job, who, unfortunately, needed money. And they were shown to commit illegal acts to get money. That is what i want to prevent. [ ] today we are here to officially kick off the first class of opportunities for all. [applause]. Opportunities for all is a program that mayor breed launched in october of 2018. It really was a vision of mayor breed to get to all of the young people in San Francisco, but with an intention to focus on young people that have typically not being able to access opportunities such as internships or workbased learning opportunities. Money should never be a barrier to your ability to succeed in life and that is what this program is about. Theres always these conversations about young people not being prepared and not having experience for work and if they dont get an opportunity to work, then they cannot gain the experience that they need. This is really about investing in the future talent pool and getting them the experience that they need. It is good for everyone because down the road we will need future mechanics, future pilots, future bankers, future whatever they may be in any industry. This is the pipe on we need to work with. We need to start developing talent, getting people excited about careers, opening up those pathways and frankly giving opportunities out there that would normally not be presented. [ ] the way that it is organized is there are different points of entry and different ways of engagement for the young person and potential employers. Young people can work in cohorts or in groups and thats really for people that have maybe never had job experience or who are still trying to figure out what they want to do and they can explore. And in the same way, it is open for employers to say, you know what, i dont think we are ready to host an intern yearround are all summer, but that they can open up their doors and do site visits or tours or panels or conversations. And then it runs all the way up to the opportunity for young people to have longterm employment, and work on a project and be part of the employee base. Something new, to get new experience and meet people and then you are getting paid for it you are getting paid for doing that. It is really cool. I starting next week, i will be a freshman. [cheers and applause] two of the things i appreciate about this program was the amazing mentorship in the job experience that i had. I am grateful for this opportunity. Thank you. Something i learned at airbnb is how to network and how important it is to network because it is not only what you know, but also who you know to get far in life. During this program, i learned basic coding languages, had a had to identify the main components and how to network on a corporate level. It is also helping me accumulate my skills all be going towards my College Tuition where i will pursue a major in computer science. For myself, being that i am an actual residential realtor, it was great. If anybody wants to buy a house, let me know. Whenever. [applause] it is good. I got you. It was really cool to see the commercial side and think about the process of developing property and Different Things that i can explore. Opportunities for all was a great opportunity for all. We were aiming to have 1,000 young people register and we had over 2,000 people register and we were able to place about between 50 and did. We are still getting the final numbers of that.
