So, you know, its not going to hurt parking. And then the developer will add on more that they think that is needed to mitigate some of the impact. And as already mentioned by my colleagues, today in landuse, what were really talking about looking at the general transit amendment and also the rezonings for special use district. Those are the things that weve been looking at today. So i actually didnt go into the Development Agreement that much because i know that were going to be talking about that in two days. And my staff and my office have been working on putting in more amendments that, of course, it wouldnt be right now, wed introduce those amendments on on wednesday. And a few of those things have been alluded to. Supervisor peskin has been championing this use it or dont lose it, and i totally agree and well recommend that amendment. I work with the supervisor safai in understanding that this city college is really part of district 7, that there are a lot of people around both of our districts that can benefit from it, from having sort of a neighborhood preference. So were going to put in that amendment. And then we also i know that i mentioned that the new developers were 50 of the new property for the city to control. When it comes to park inclusioniffity and housing affordability, a whole bunch of other things. So well be introducing that amendment that the Developers Already agreed to. And the other thing that weve been talking about, i didnt want that to get lost in the discussion, is the we felt that it was important to put language in there, for the use it or lose it, that the affordability piece that were talking about, that some people felt we might lose it in 50 years or whatever. We will put language in there that will make it in perpetuity. So i just wanted to respond to some of the Public Comments that were made and they were made in good faith because they might have not known that we were pushing for these amendments. And, again, i didnt want to mention too much to take up too much of the land use of the committees time because i know that were going to talk about it on wednesday. So, again, i support supervisor peskins motion to go ahead and get it out of Committee Without any recommendations. Thank you. I want to thank all of the members of the committee for having patience with this item. I know this item was passed at 9 00 p. M. At this point. So ill stop at that. Clerk okay, if there are no other comments on the motion that i made earlier to send these items, item 7 and 8 to the full board without recommendation, madam clerk, a roll call, please. Clerk on the motion as stated for item number 7 to refer without recommendation. [roll call] you have three ayes. On the motion to forward number 8, 200422, as stated by supervisor preston. Supervisor preston. Preston, aye. Supervisor safai. Aye. Safai, aye. Supervisor peskin. Peskin, aye. You have three ayes. All right, that concludes the business before this committee after almost eight hours and we are adjourned. See you tomorrow, everybody. I had to put a sweater on like president yee. We are adjourned. Good night. Good night, everyone. Im e leadership of the department of Public Health flattened the curve in San Francisco. The steps we have taken together have saved lives. One of the reasons the city acted so quickly so early was to not overburden our Health Care Systems. As the state of california and bay area counties have begun to gradually reopen, we are seeing some troubling signs. We have a seven day average of ninety eight new cases per day. Our demand for acute care for covid positive patients has goan each week. Today dr. And i are announcing the establishment of our first low acuity medical site. Located a 163. It will open with twenty patients. Its not expected to treat covid positive patients. When i starred this i facility i was truly impressed at the first rate medical facility. The citys ability to confront covid 19 depends on our ability to care for those with all manner of conditions. Sprained angels to heart attacks. Other ailments are not stopping just because of the pandemic. Opening this facility will shore up our ability for the hospitals to treat covid 19. It is not a drop in acute care site testing location or shelter. Please do not visit this location if you are seeking any of those services sm as the district two supervisor i would be remiss to not note the response to local emergencies. Were an incredible resource and im grateful for the partnership with press i hapartnershipwith. A good mark morning. Im director of health. Thank you for your support during this unprecedented time. Today like if everyday, i check the number of patient patients h covid 19. Unfortunately that number is higher than ever before and continues to climb. That number dropped to just 26 patients six weeks ago. Today, its one hundred and seven. Of those one quarter are very sick and in intensive care. Across the city we have more than six thousand cases of covid 19. And look, it took us thirty eight days to go from two thousand to three thousand cases. Of half as long to go from three thousand to four thousand. In just ten days we went from five thousand to six thousand cases of covid 19. Let me be clear, we are in a major surge of covid 19. The virus is moving fast and more people are getting seriously ill. If things continue, we estimate well have more than 750 san franciscans in the hospital by october. Plausible worst Case Scenarios put us at twenty four hundred hospitalizations and eighteen hundred deaths. These scenarios unfortunately become more likely as each day goes by with the current trend. Today, fortunately all patients are getting world class treatment from the most caring professionals sm we wisals. We still have capacity to care for patients. It is good news that our Health Care System has not yet been overwhelmed as we saw in new york. Many are contributing to that by staying home, avoiding gathering, covering your faces when go ting out, washing your hands sm you are preventing more illness and spread and keep our Health Care System functioning. Our city must prepare for this surge. How many peoplethat puts us in the red zone of one of our key health indicators. Weve been there for over a month. Its extremely sobering that we reached this point. Its extremely concerning. Our reopening remains on pause. The main reason we joined the watch list was because of our rapidly growing rates. Our goal is to keep the increase to less than 10 . Since january the Health Department has been planning and preparing for covid 19. We built up the capacity of our Health Care System. We added testing sites a sites. Today supervisor stephanie announced, were creating a care site that we hope we will not need. Its located in the presidio but will serve all san franciscans. It will serve patients who no longer need acute care but are not ready to go home. They would have medical medical supervision and care from staff. I hope this day wont come. We hope our hospitals will never need to open the relief that this site represents. That depends on you. All of us. Please. Please wear a mask. Its really not that hard. I want to see San Francisco open schools instead of medical sites. We want to see houses of worship open their doors. Sit in their favorite barbers chair. Hug our grand children again. We can make that happen. We still have time to turn this around. If we want those things we cant take chances and hope this virus is not as infectious as the data and facts tell us it is. Everyone needs to behave as though each of us has covid 19. Think about that. We know half as many doap donte symptoms at some period. Be careful. Every time you wear a mask, socially distance. Wash your hands. Avoid gatherings. Youre moving closer to the day we can live more like we did before march. Everyday you take a risk you move us farther away from that day. We can prove testimon works aga. Covering our faces may be the most important. On friday San Francisco updated the orders. Everyone over the age of ten should wear a Face Covering. If youre alone in a space that people might use later, cover your face. If youre handling food for other face, cover your face. Basically, cover your face. If youre passing someone on the sidewalk, your face must be covered. Other things we must do. Washing our hand hands, stayingx feet apart. If you are meeting. Meet out side if you can. Of course, please you must stay home if you can. Short of the vaccine or cure of covid 19 these are the most effective interventions that we have available to us. They work if we take them up and practice these behaviors everyday. You can do this. Its up to us to flatten the curve again. Thank you. Thank you doctor and thank you supervisor stephanie for your time. Well begin the q and a portion of this meeting. We have a variety of questions for dr. Co lfax. The first question is from the associated press. We havent seen the devastation in the homeless communities. Why do you think that is . I think its a number of factors that so far have helped us avoid worse Case Scenarios with people experiencing homelessness, we took action early on with our partners and support of housing and with our Community Seven is agency part mere ins. Ensuring that best practices were rapidly a applied. People had the materials necessary to reduce the spread. Other key interventions that we did is make available hundreds of hotel rooms so people experiencing c homelessness were able to shelter in place. Over thirty five hundred people have been placed in those hotel rooms. Weve done a lot of out reach work on the street. Providing hygiene. We had an intense Clinical Team that provided health care for people before the pandemic. This team has been working around the clocke clock to ensue people get the best care. Its a variety of actions that weve taken to avoid some of the outcomes weve seen in other jurisdictions. Thank you, doctor. The next set of questions are from ab c seven. Face shields should be worn in addition to face masks. Do you for se for see this beina requirement. The most important thing is that we ensure in public that everyone is wearing a Face Covering if they are over ten years of age. Weve been very clear that protecting our Health Care Workers is key. How close is San Francisco to getting off the watch list . We continue to see increases above the 50 hospitalization rates. I cant speculate on how soon. We are in a major surge here and anticipating on average seven hundred fifty in the hospital by october. If were on and off the watch list what is key is we work to flatten the curve and recommit ourselves. We did it before and we can do it again. Its going to take the whole community to make this work. Are social gatherings the major reason for the surge. Its a major ko contributor. People should not be using testing to determine whether they should gather. If someone is infected, the virus is extremely contagious. They
