Theres a 15day right of appeal to the board of appeals. In reality, Public Notice is quite limited so when i hear from folks on the mission corridors that they dont want the director, plan the director after february to do this and theyre still discretional, i felt like we should listen to that. Given that the sensitive is entertainment and permitted in all that map that you saw. Or a vast majority. I hear you and ive heard in those meetings as well in the mission in particular concern i havent heard about entertainment. Ive heard about restaurant uses and expansion of wine and people i havent heard anyone push back about entertainment. Unless entertainment is being defined differently, how is entertainment being defined here . Are we talking about comedy, music . What are we talking about . I have the definition. A Retail Entertainment arts and recreation use that provides entertainment to the general public including dramatic and music performances where alcohol is not served during performances. Arcades that provide 11 or more amusement game devices, bill yard halls, bowling alleys, skating rinks and mini golf when conducted in an enclosed building and adequately soundproofs or insulated so to confine noise to the premises and it goes on. I dont want to speak t to pesk. The only thing i heard was the proposed pinball. Its something that came up recently in the mission. It was related to a full Service Restaurant and entertainment. But this is not including alcohol, correct . Correct. For artistic performance thats did not include alcohol for me, i would think why would we want to exclude that. Its not my district. And the office space that were striking this fee related is related to arts activities so i would say, i mean, at least what we did in our district when we change the table it was completely not permitted. And that was a good youth we could get going in three or four spaces. The only reason im reflecting this is the whole vacant storefront tax that were doing that were promoteing and the whole conversation about vacancies. I have a proposal supervisor safai. Here is one of the problems three of us or any three individuals that serve on any committee of the board have until this moment, we cant talk to each other because its a brown act violation because any two of us constitute a quorum. But, weve got a little bit of time between now and january 7te send this out of committee, we can talk until january 7th and insofar as this is a narrowing, we could expand this and change the interim use definition which would not have to be rereferred to committee because that is is the way it was originally con trudeau. Im asking councilor but i believe that to be true so if we were to go back to the original interim definition or do it in part that would be by the referee that is the City Attorneys Office to be not substantive amendment if were to do that on the floor of the full board on january 7th. So your proposal is instead of striking everything that was stricken leave it i was going to do it the opposite way. Talk the amendment and talk about it now between now and the seventh, which gives us can we strike everything but the entertainment and the other and also do it so we leave snell we can have that conversation as we go . Yeah, pearson and tom, which say that if we do that it will take a few minutes to work that because approximate we insert entertainment and arts uses and then say only prince blee permitted, ive been trained by john give ner to not do things on the supply. If you think can you massage this and you have one suggestion as to the definition that was merely a gra mat tick issue i would take that change now as suggested by commissioner safai. Supervisor peskin, can you repeat the revisions . In addition to the words smithing of n. C. D. S which you can suggest in a minute was everything be permitted except for entertainment as defined and arts as defined which could be prince blee or conditionally permitted, right, isnt that the defense that were talking about. I see mr. Star nodding his head. Yeah, just to make sure you are doing general activity and arts is those are the non alcoholic and i would just permitted conditional use or not permitted would be the language. So, general entertainment, arts activities could be not permitted or princ principlely permitted. If we say that, you have three weeks to work on it and well call that the amendment. Yeah. We say it like that you can take the spirit and make it imminent. Were trying to be nice and i have to be nice to her on her first day. So the idea would be to avoid a Material Change in the sense that the language or the definition of the eligible area would be no less permissive than whats introduced . Well it depends on which has been introduced. What we are saying is in addition so, lets do it like this. There are four amendments, lets dispense with three of them that are very easy and we will leave the fourth one. So is the First Amendment which everybody seems to be totally good with is and accepted. Yes, correct. So i will make a motion to have that as previously discussed on page 6 and we will take that without objection. The second one is for a total period of five years and that seems to be easy and well take that without objection. The third one is the wordsmithing one which you will put the ncd clause at the beginning of that sentens, would you like to read that into the record . Sure. I would be happy to. As amended the definition of eligible area would read means commercial residential downtown residential, d. T. R. And district and this is the relocated clause, in mixed use and neighborhood commercial, and n. C. Districts, within the area founded by Market Street 13th street to division street and king street. I think colleague, week take that without objection. That leaves us with the interim different tee definition. And what is being the use age you are watching being made is that we would mary the original proposal with a hybrid proposal coming out of this committee which is it would be limit today principle blee permitted unless they were general entertainment or arts activities in which case they would be permitted, whether prince plea or uncommitted. Im sorry, im not trying to overcome noover com mr. Com mrot eligible Development Site and dedicate forward arts activities, use or Light Manufacturing. Is Light Manufacturing needed for c. U. Just to be clear. So like manufacturing meeting would depend on the Zoning District in which its taking place in many districts for instance, i believe in the nct i dont believe thats permitted at all. No manufacturing or industrial uses are allowed in neighbor commercial districts and also no office uses allowed in neighbor commercial districts. Including nonprofit as well as for profit. We dont distinguish between the two. If were saying office space related to arts activity shouldnt we say Light Manufacturing if in shows areas that have been a priority throughout the city. So we dont miss it in case it came up. She mentioned welding as related to art but for seeing problems down the road, someone could say i might be like manufacturing thats not real related to art. If the use falls under arts activities, so its like video editing. Is that why you added that . Was it related to arts uses. It doesnt read like that. Light manufacturing is a diffuse. They do have some but its for arts purposes like stage and scenery and things like that . Its for performing arts not necessarily sculpting. Its food processing, apparel, furniture, fixtures, printing and publishing what their product pottery, glass blowing, commercial laundry, things like that. With arts activities, its painting, drawing, sculptures. I just want to be clear. To the committee what is the will of the others . I might lean towards include tag if it needed a construction,. Including that. We will continue the conversation along with planning and the Mayors Office around where well end up on this. Whether we include this piece right now. I would say to leave it and then can you decide as we move forward if you want to take it out. Thats all. Thats fine with me. And third definition so you know what to do mr. Tom. You got it . General entertainment. Arts, activity, activities use. And Light Manufacturing or metal working use. So, Everything Else would be permitted except for those three which could be not mer mighted, conditionally permitted or prince blee permitted. You can take that and we are adjourned until next year. Clerk the remaining balance . We will take the item as four times amended and send it to the full board with recommendations for hearing on january 7th. Have a great holiday. [ ] its always a slap in the face to our people and we see that happening all over this country, but always reminded us that as Indigenous People we didnt actually have a place. What we were thought of continuously was as savages and less than, that the white man came to save us. When i first saw the early day statue, i think it brought me back to the time of my ancestors. I think thats where genocide started. That was a time when people were being hunted down and slaughtered and bounties were placed on their heads. Not only were people murdered, our culture was stripped from us. Prior to my lifetime, our families were still in hiding. I think some of the folks do not understand some of the very first laws that were created and what is now called the state of california was extermination laws that legalized the killing of native people. I remember specifically someone had painted in red beneath again side and they put a wine bottle in the hand of the missionaries who was leaning down to hand this bottle to the indian man who was seated on the ground. It was a powerful statement about genocide and the distortion of history and what the true history is. I think that we have to remove all of these stereotypes and strip the world of this racism in order to build it back up with factually correct history and teach people not only native American People behave like this. Were all people, the same as you. We have a 9 00 to 5 00 job. We go to school. Were also different because our history and our ancestors and culture and arts make us different. Public art is very powerful, as we can see for 126 years, the common imagery was upholding white supremacy. Its important that public arts also evolved and what was accepted and appropriate and apparent 120 years ago is not so any longer. I think that its important that the statue went down the way that it did, with Indigenous People coming out from all different walks and different places. That its important for our Younger Generation to see that we can change what history has put up that depicts us. [ ] thats powerful to know that selectivity were able to remove that symbol. We are now able to occupy that space in our own voice. The native american movements that were conducted in the 1970s are extremely important to me because my grandpa was at the forefront of them and he was making the world a better place so that i would grow up in a world where i had one less issue to face and my generation could start from where he worked and continue working from that point. The struggle has been going on for many years to remove this statue, but its only one key in all of San Franciscos history and all of this countrys history about the misrepresentation of how this land was developed and colonized. We have to fight to regain our languages, have access to our lands, to keep our religions from being illegal. That is the legacy, that we are in a continuous struggle. I think those are ways of acknowledging our path so we can move forward together. No one is going home. This has always been our home. How do we learn to live in reciprocity with one another . Thats by acknowledging our histories and moving forward and telling the truth to history. [ ] [ ] hi today we have a special edition of building San Francisco, stay safe, what we are going to be talking about San Franciscos earth quakes, what you can do before an earthquake in your home, to be ready and after an earthquake to make sure that you are comfortable staying at home, while the city recovers. The next episode of stay safe, we have Alicia Johnson from San Franciscos department of emergency management. Hi, alicia thanks to coming it is a pleasure to be here with you. I wonder if you could tell us what you think people can do to get ready for what we know is a coming earthquake in San Francisco. Well, one of the most things that people can do is to make sure that you have a plan to communicate with people who live both in and out of state. Having an out of state contact, to call, text or post on your social network is really important and being able to know how you are going to communicate with your friends, and family who live near you, where you might meet them if your home is uninhab hitable. How long do you think that it will be before things are restored to normal in San Francisco. It depends on the severity of the earthquake, we say to provide for 72 hours tha, is three days, and it helps to know that you might be without services for up to a week or more, depending on how heavy the shaking is and how many after shocks we have. What kind of neighborhood and Community Involvement might you want to have before an earthquake to make sure that you are going to able to have the support that you need. It is important to have a Good Relationship with your neighbors and your community. Go to those community events, shop at local businesses, have a reciprocal relationship with them so that you know how to take care of yourself and who you can rely on and who can take care of you. It is important to have a batteryoperated radio in your home so that you can keep track of what is happening in the Community Around and how you can communicate with other people. One of the things that seems important is to have access to your important documents. Yes, it is important to have copies of those and also stored them remotely. So a title to a home, a passport, a drivers license, any type of medical records that you need need, back those up or put them on a remote drive or store them on the cloud, the same is true with any Vital Information on your computer. Back that up and have that on a cloud in case your hard drive does not work any more. In your home you should be prepared as well. Absolutely. Lets take a look at the kinds of things that you might want to have in your home. We have no water, what are we going to do about water . It is important for have extra water in your house, you want to have bottled water or a five gallon container of water able to use on a regular basis, both for bathing and cooking as well as for drinking. We have this big container and also in peoples homes they have a hot water heater. Absolutely, if you clean your hot water heater out regularly you can use that for showering, drinking and bathing as well what other things do people need to have arent their home. It is important to have extra every day items buy a couple extra cans of can food that you can eat without any preparation. Here is a giant can of green giant canned corn. And this, a manual can opener, your electric can opener will not be working not only to have one but to know where to find it in your kitchen. Yes. So in addition to canned goods, we are going to have fresh food and you have to preserve that and i know that we have an ice chest. Having an ice chest on hand is really important because your refrigerator will not be working right away. It is important to have somebody else that can store cold foods so something that you might be able to take with you if you have to leave your home. And here, this is my very own personal emergency supply box for my house. I hope that you have an alternative one at home. Oh, i forgot. And in this is really important, you should have flashlights that have batteries, fresh batteries or hand crank flashlight. I have them right here. Good. Excellent. That is great. Additionally, you are going to want to have candles a whistle, possibly a compass as well. Markers if you want to label things if you need to, to people that you are safe in your home or that you have left your home. I am okay and i will meet you at. Exactly. Exactly. Water proof matches are a great thing to have as well. We have matches here. And my spare glasses. And your spare glasses. If you have medication, you should keep it with you or have access to it. If it needs to be refrigerated make sure that it is in your ice box. Inside, just to point out for you, we have spare batteries. Very important. We have a little first aid kit. And lots of different kinds of batteries. And another spare flashlight. So, alicia what else can we do to prepare our homes for an earthquake so we dont have damage . One of the most important things that you can do is to secure your valuable and breakable items. Make sure that your tv is strapped down to your entertainment cabinet or wall so it does not move. Also important is to make sure that your book case is secure to the wall so that it does not fall over and your valuable and breakables do not break on the ground. Becoming prepared is not that difficult. Taking care of your home, making sure that you have a few extra everyday items on hand helps to make the difference. That contributes dramatically to the way that the city as a whole can recover. Absolutely. If you are able to control your own environment and house and recovery and your neighbors are doing the same the city as a whole will be a more resilient city. We are all proud of living in San Francisco and being prepared helps us stay here. So, thank you so much for joining us today, alicia, i appreciate it. Absolutely, it is my pleasure. And thank you for joining us on another edition of building its great to see everyone kind of get together and prove, that you know, building our culture is something that can be reckoned with. I am desi, chair of Economic Development for soma filipinos. So that [ inaudible ] know that soma filipino exists, and its also our economic platform, so we can start to build filipino businesses so we can start to build the cultural district. I studied the bok chase choy her achbl heritage, and i discovered this awesome bok choy. Working at imarket is amazing. Youve got all these amazing people coming out here to share one culture. When i heard that there was a market with, like, a lot of Filipino Food, it was like oh, wow, thats the closest thing ive got to home, so, like, im going to try everything. Fried rice, and wings, and three different cliefz sliders. I havent tried the adobe yet, but just smelling it yet brings back home and a ton of memories. The binca is made out of different ingredients, including cheese. But here, we put a twist on it. Why not have nutella, rocky road, we have blue berry. Were not just limiting it to just the classic with salted egg and cheese. We try to cook food that you dont normally find from Filipino Food vendors, like the lichon, for example. Its something that it took years to come up with, to perfect, to get the skin just right, the flavor, and its one of our most popular dishes, and people love it. This, its kind of me trying to chase a dream that i had for a long time. When i got tired of the corporate world, i decided that i wanted to give it a try and see if people would actually like our food. I think its a wonderful opportunity for the filipino culture to shine. Everybody keeps saying Filipino Food is the next big thing. I think its already big, and to have all of us here together, its just it just blows my mind sometimes that theres so many of us bringing bringing Filipino Food to the city finally. Im alex, the owner of the lumpia company. The food that i create is basically the filipinoamerican experience. I wasnt a chef to start with, but i literally love lumpia, but my food is my Favorite Foods i like to eat, put into my favorite Filipino Foods, put together. Its not based off of recipes i learned from my mom. Maybe i learned the rolling technique from my mom, but the Different Things that i put in are just the Different Things that i like, and i like to think that i have good taste. Well, the very first lumpia that i came out with that really build the lumpia it wasnt the poerk and shrimp shanghai, but my favorite thing after partying is that bakon cheese burger lumpia. There was a time in our generation where we didnt have our own place, our own feed to eat. Before, i used to promote filipino gatherings to share the love. Now, im taking the most exciting filipino appetizer and sharing it with other filipinos. It can happen in the San Francisco mint, it can happen in a park, it can happen in a street park, it can happen in a tech campus. Its basically where we bring the hardware, the culture, the operating system. So right now, im eating something that brings me back to every Filipino Party from my childhood. Its really cool to be part of the community and reconnect with the neighborhood. One of our largest challenges in creating this cultural district when we compare ourselves to chinatown, japantown or little saigon, theres little communities there that act as place makers. When you enter into little philippines, youre like where are the businesses, and thats one of the challenges were trying to solve. Undercover love wouldnt be possible without the help of the mayor and all of our Community Partnerships out there. It costs approximately 60,000 for every event. Undiscovered is a great tool for the cultural district to bring awareness by bringing the best parts of our culture which is food, music, the arts and being ativism all under one roof, and by seeing it all in this way, what it allows san franciscans to see is the dynamics of the filipinoamerican culture. I think in San Francisco, weve kind of lost track of one of our values that makes San Francisco unique with just empathy, love, of being acceptable of different people, the out liers, the crazy ones. Weve become so focused onic maing money that we forgot about those that make our city and community unique. When people come to discover, i want them to rediscover the magic of what diversity and empathy can create. When youre positive and committed to using that energy, San Francisco, 911, whats the emergency . San francisco 911, police, fire and medical. The tenderloin. Suspect with a six inch knife. He was trying to get into his car and was hit by a car. San francisco 911 whats the exact location of your emergency . Welcome to the San Francisco department of emergency management. My name is shannon bond and im the lead instructor for our dispatch add academy. I want to tell you about what we do here. This is San Francisco 911. Do you need police, fire or medical . San francisco police, dispatcher 82, how can i help you . Youre helping people in their what may be their most vulnerable moment ever in life.

As well as positions for police and fire dispatch. We have a priority 221. I wanted to become a dispatcher so i could help people. I really like people. I enjoy talking to people. This is a way that i thought that i could be involved with people every day. As a 911 dispatcher i am the first first responder. Even though i never go on seen scene im the first one answering the phone call to calm the victim down and give them instruction. The information allows us to coordinate a response. Police officers, firefighters, ambulances or any other agency. It is a great feeling when everyone gets to go home safely at the end of the day knowing that youve also saved a citizens life. Our department operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. This is shift work. That means we work nights, weekends and holidays and can involve over time and sometimes thats mandatory. This is a high stress career so its important to have a good balance between work and life. We have Resources Available like wellness and peer support groups. Our dispatchers of the month are recognized for their outstanding performance and unique and ever changing circumstances. I received an accommodation and then i received dispatcher of the month, which was really nice because i was just released from the phones. So for them to, you know, recognize me for that i appreciated it. I was surprised to even get it. At the end of the day i was just doing my job. A typical dispatch shift includes call taking and dispatching. It takes a large dedicated group of fifrst responders to make ths department run and in turn keep the city safe. When you work here you dont work alone, you work as part of a team. You may start off as initial phone call or contact but everyone around you participating in the whole process. I was born and raised in San Francisco so its really rewarding to me to be able to help the community and know that i have a part in you know, even if its behind the scenes kind of helping the city flow and helping people out that live here. The Training Program begins with our sevenweek academy followed by on the job training. This means youre actually taking calls or dispatching responders.

We just need you to come with an open mind that we can train you and make you a good dispatcher. If its too dangerous to see and you think that you can get away and call us from somewhere safe. Good. Thats right. From the start of the academy to being released as a solo dispatcher can take nine months to a year. Training is a little over a year and may change in time. The training is intense. Very intense. Whats the number one thing that kills people in this country . So were going to assume that its a heart attack, right . Dont forget that. As a new hire we require you to be flexible.
