Chair ronen yes. Okay. Thank you for having me on. I would love to comment on what i have to say. I dont know what im supposed to say, but im a native san franciscan, and ive served every mayor since mayor jordan and three governors in San Francisco, and, of course, through those years, there was mayor jordan, mayor brown, mayor newsom, governor newsom, and all that. As a matter of fact, i was serving the state when mayor brown was mayor, and [inaudible] who was a governor at that time, and that was in 2003. So ive been around about well, over 30 years serving San Francisco and the state and the United States of america, and im very proud to say that. I am also very honored to continue serving on the Advisory Board of the city hall preservation. As a matter of fact, it was mayor newsom who appointed me to come cofound this commission, and that was in 19 oh, lets see. It was 1996. So for ten years, i was with the city on this commission. I originally am in the real estate business, and i am a developer, and at that time, was building shopping centers, and im still at it, so to speak. Im semi retired and devoting my time more volunteering for the community, and im a little bit nervous because we got disconnected. I couldnt figure out how it was going on, and things were really not very organized here [inaudible] im having a problem with the connection. Chair ronen is that better now . Its very difficult for me to continue, but if you want me to, i can try. Chair ronen thats okay. I think we and and and city hall has my resume and everything all these years. I dont know exactly what else i did am a founder of a number of organizations locally and internationally, and there is interference. I dont know if im talking through. Chair ronen can you hear me . Can you hear me . Is. I can hear you more, so im not getting it, and of course, im using my cell phone, as i was told, because of the difficulty. I think it might be oh, im getting feedback. Chair ronen miss woo, can you hear me . Can you hear me . [inaudible]. Chair ronen can you hear me . Youve presented enough. Thank you, we really appreciate it. What was that . Chair ronen thank you for your presentation. Thank you. Thank you. And mr. Oh, mr. Carney, im sorry. Are you available . I am. Can you hear me . Chair ronen we can hear you perfectly. Welcome. Thank you. Well good morning. I am patrick carney. Thank you for your time today, and thank you to mayor breed for the reappointment. I am a licensed architect with 35 Years Experience and have a degree from u. C. Berkeley. I was honored to have worked on the restoration for city hall for four years. I knew the issues facing it then and now the issues now. However, i have the background to know how this beautiful building should be architecturally maintained going forward. During the restoration effort, i was named team liaison for 26 engineering firms and went to meetings with thenmayor willie brown and went on hardhat tours of the building. Since joining the commission, i have made many walkthroughs and pointed out problems to address. I have spoken with city administrator naomi kelly about [inaudible]. Human rights and stopping ha hate crimes. This year, it was eliminated by the masterminds behind the bay bridge lighting, and that was certainly a thrill, and it was up for three weeks and will be back next year for the 2016 triangle. In summary, my main goal for wanting to continue on this commission overseeing city hall is to make sure the vision of the restoration of the Architectural Team is maintained and we hopefully will never have to go through another 340 million series of bond measures to bring this Building Back to what it needed to be, so i wanted to make sure that all the interventions that we went through for four years is maintained and the design is maintained. Thank you so much. I appreciate your time. Chair ronen thank you so much. Thank you for everything you do for the city. Thank you. Chair ronen the Pink Triangle is one of the best thing about pride time every single year, so thank you. Supervisor stefani . Supervisor stefani thank you, chair ronen. I just wanted to say this is one of the most important commissions, and we like you said at the beginning, our building is so beautiful, walking into it every day. I miss it so much, walking up that Grand Staircase and have such incredible stewards of that building. I was fortunate to work with the City Hall Preservation Advisory Committee when i was the city clerk. Theres a little room off the hall called the marriage ceremony room, and i was able to work with the commission to redo this room in a way thats worthy of city hall. I want to thank miss schumer for her guidance during this process, and i agree everything that you said, supervisor ronen, about her style. I miss everybody so much, and i want to thank mr. Vergara. Your job sounds amazing. Even though my son is at sacred heart, but we are all wildcats, as well. For mr. Haas to write the book that he has, thank you.

Im chris manners, and youre watching coping with covid19. Today, in a very special 13th episode, im going to the emergency room. The beach parking lots reopened recently here, so i decided to have my first surf session since the shelter in place order, and as i was getting out, i had a little accident right there. Heres my story. As soon as i hurt myself, i went straight back to my car and took a photo so i could see what id done. Be warned, the picture is a little graphic. Next, i took out my first aid kit and applied a temporary dressing before i drove home. This first aid kit comes from the red cross, and a similar kit is available on their website for around 22. I quickly determined i needed some stitches, so i called the emergency room to see how busy they are. If you have a wound that requires stitches, you can call to see how busy they are, but dont wait too long. After eight hours, they wont see you. I was a little nervous about going to the e. R. During this pandemic, but my fears were completely unfounded. Service was fast, efficient, and the staff whether all helpful and cheer were all helpful and cheerful. After using hand sanitizer, i went through security, checked in. My name was called, and they took my temperature and Blood Pressure while asking a few basic questions about myself and my injury. Next, i was taken to a private space, and a nurse came in and thoroughly cleaned my wounds. Then, a doctor came in, numbed my neck, and quickly put in seven stitches. I was released and back home in about an hour. The reason i made this video is there are reports that e. R. S are seeing less patients than usual. Dont risk your health. My visit was very reassuring. They have all the appropriate covid19 protocols in place, great professionals, and theyre there to help. If you need to go to the e. R. , dont hesitate to get the help you need. In fact, since i started this video, ive been back again to get the stitches removed with the same level of care. Well, thats it for this episode. If you need urgent care, go to the emergency room no matter what your financial situation is, and call 911 if you need paramedics or cant get there by yourself. The doctors and nurses will get you there and get you the
