Its been such a long time since i have seen you in person, however, its really nice to see all of your faces in this box tonight. I have missed you all very much. And i want to thank you all for continuing to do the good work in your own communities to support the nightlife and the Entertainment Industry during covid19. And i wanted to briefly welcome commissioner cyn wang to the commission this evening. Cyn, were happy to have you with us tonight and were all looking forward to work with you. Since midmarch the commission has been in Emergency Response mode due to the covid crisis. Our bars, nightclubs and live music venues and event organizers and musicians have been some of the hardest hit in the industry. Many of whom were already financially yo vulnerable precovid. Its a rolling target, as well as the response to it. So just like our city departments, our offices have to stay nimble and informed as to the situation evolving. Wile recognizing that we have been keeping up, i hope during the shelterinplace, i want to spend time this evening discussing the staff work because it has been weeks since we last met. Which is pretty wild. So when covid happened, the e. C. Began to shift gears away indiscernible when when permitting for amplified sound no longer being an option, we amplified the efforts and the communications coming into other local Government Agencies around the economic recovery and reopening processes. Since the shelterinplace began, our office has been pulling together and sharing the latest resources in order to educate the industry, working on leveraging our relationships with other city departments, and our online channels to get the word out as quickly as possible. Some of the things that we have been communicating about are the rules, obviously, so the Health Orders and the directives are ever changing and the most recent communication that came out this past friday was about outdoor bar Service Without food. And so we had to let everyone know that this had been delayed and this news came three days before bars were going to be allowed to have outdoor Service Without the bona fide meal requirement. So i know some of you on the commission may have felt the disappointment in that update more acutely than others. And some of the other things that we have been amplifying are the relief matters which i know that Ben Van Hooten will get into more on later, and resources and just touching on the fact that hes communicating the work of the shared spaces program, and any updates around the abc, when theyve been relaxing rules and the moratorium on the commercial evictions. Also just sharing resources on financial assistance. During covid, hes worked to have a centralized online hub on sf. Gov which is a big push for him and with support from Ben Van Hooten. So i encourage you to visit at sfgovtv nightliferelief. Its for the latest rules in our industry. We have also been focusing on indiscernible so both myself and the Deputy Director have presented in several educational webinars with the department of public health, City Attorney and others. So any opportunity that we can to help to inform our industry and Small Businesses in general about the roles that we take advantage of. And Ben Van Hooten and i are Holding Virtual office hours and consultations with the industry and so if anyone is watching right now that needs oneonone assistance we can schedule some time with you. And we did a Needs Assessment and dylan worked really hard on this too with ben. We surveyed 170 plus industry workers, including venues, bars, restaurants and other creatives, to understand the financial and social impacts of covid19. Some of the key findings ill share with you and im happy to share the larger report as well. Among the Industry Sectors and nightclubs had the highest number of respondents say they could only stay afloat for the next one to two months under the current conditions. And nearly half of respondents said they had a high amount of concern, a rating of eight to 10, but that their business will need to close permanently due to the Financial Impact of covid19. The majority of those are bars, latin music venues and night nightclubs. That is some staggering news so im going to just take a breath. We are also working on convening the industry to share challenges and goals. And so thank you all for joining us for our Virtual Summit on may 18th. We had 500 plus attendees with our first ever virtual happy hour which was very interesting one indeed. And were als
