[applause] thank you so much, i receive this in honor of all women who work very hard every day who are the main support, our kids who are learning from us and other Business Owners who are not here but same work so hard every day. We brought with us, our food, and culture from our food, we cook from our hearts thank you so much. [speaking spanish] and here we are representing our countries and dock what we do best, thank you. Muchas gracias. Thank you so much for the San Francisco city and we hope that we can still work hard and i want to say thank you so much for la cocina too, because were here because of all of their help. Okay, [speaking spanish] thank you for supporting us. Thank you so much for all the support and we hope that you keep supporting us so we can grow as a Business Owners. Thank you supervisor preston and congratulations to la cocina. Supervisor safai. Great, what a beautiful day, what a day to celebrate culture and contributions and what a beautiful culture it is. Im very honored to be talking about not one individual but an entity of individuals that came together as a collective. Really came together to show their commitment and dedication and their, to stand up for the community and stand up for San Francisco. So we thought about honoring one individual but we took a step back and got some really good input from the community and they made the suggestion lets bring everyone together and honor the entire group. So i 100 percent support that. This years theme is corazon dela comunidad, heart of the community. Im excited to be supporting honoring them, and for all of their tremendous work to serve our community. They jumped into action. To families during these difficult times. And so many things, when vaccines became available, sprung into action and worked with the department of Public Health to craft the response in the image and what the community wanted and what was appropriate for the community. And they did that bying together a Community Hub. When we needed the them the most, excelier strong heard our call. So our community, our city, my office and so many working in partnership with you, appreciates the work of excelier strong and im so proud to be honoring them today. The embody of theme of this months direction which is the corason de la comunidad, ill call and them invite them. Maria del ruby, laura padilla. Juan, uloa, miguel portiya, adrian, carlos, carmen, and christina, im sorry if i miss pronounced anybodys name. Thank you so much, im going to turn it over to a represent i think that is rose. Please come forward. Thank you. Hello and thank you and i apologize in advance if i get emotional. Im just torn and weighed down by emotions because its kind of, sad reason that we are here being recognized i appreciate the recognition and we all do, however it comes as a result of addressing the needs of our community and seeing the hardship that all of them have endured not just during covid but precovid and even now. Mental and Health Issues that many of us are able to address, regardless of that, we stepped up. I wrote something so i didnt get distracted or sad. But i feel the weight of the community we serve is with us now and its not fair to get, be recognized that the recognition is the result of somebodys hardship, a lot of peoples hardships. So those of us who have not been recognized. Those of us who are here today, got to work regardless of the risk, not knowing then, not using math but just doing it because thats what they needed. We didnt have the funds but we found it, we didnt have the food but we found it. Together we saw the need of so many in our community and we just got to work. We knew that many of our residents would not be receiving stimulus checks unlike the rest of the city. We knew that many were living in fear. We knew that many were the frontline workers in the industry of house keeper and Service Industry that made them among those that were most highly impacted by covid. So in part i stand before you, to highlight the story of our residents and not just our latinos but who need to be recognized as those whos labor makes the city, who makes the city run. There are teachers, janitors, childcare workerscious our service employees, who we all have witnessed are truly essential workers, without these workers, the rest of the city could not function, we could not go to work if we didnt have childcare, we could not go to work if our kids did not have school. But those were the people that got sick. Those are the people whos back we prosper off of to this day. I would hope that you all would keep at the front at the for front of Decision Maker by honoring them and carrying the legacy of ed lee who i remember, sharing with us that everybody is entitled to high quality of living. If we by providing them with affordable places to live, safe and clean streets and jobs to provide for their families. We are a Resilient Community and only asked to be with the dignity that they believe. Which is where i work, casa de apoyo and other critical sites, please please please, think of them, think of us all year long and not just once a year. Thank you. And now we have supervisor stefani. Thank you, president walton and first i want to acknowledge supervisor melgar, thank you for kicking things off. Its an honor to serve you and to have you here on the board showing others that they too can be here, is to important. Thank you for your service. And im so excited to present my honoree, guild gonzalez, the ceo of planned parenthood hollywood california. She has is first latino to serve as the ceo of a california planned parenthood affiliate and a fellow st. Maries alumni i was so excited to hear that she went to the same college i did. At a time when reproductive rights are under attack across this country. As a champion for healthy communities, guild as work could not be more important than this current history. Throughout the pandemic, we learned and relearned so many basic lessons about what it means what it means to each each other. Among each of us to step up and look out for one another. Especially the most vulnerable members of our society. And that is exactly what guilda gonzalez and planned parenthood do each and every day. In light of the horrible decision, pem need people like gilda gonzalez, as a mother of a daughter, i cannot think guilda more. No one will be turned away because of their immigration status, race, gender identity, Sexual Orientation or ability to pay, no matter what. In fact three quarters are San Francisco residents and most of the remainder are people who work here in the city. These patients reflect the vibrant of communities. With the flag shift here, guilda is a beacon to women across the country and for right wing hatred every day. I know i see the protest on bush street as i drivethru the clinic every day. Despite the opposition which has grown stronger since the dobz division, guilda and her team never waiver in their commitment in concern of their people they serve and never lose focus on the women whos lives they say. Planned parenthood have a long history. So to guilda and planned parenthood. And for all that you do every day for our community, con congratulations im so proud to have you as my honoree for latin heritage month. Thank you, and i accept this in the honor of my mother and father, they instilled that calling in life is being of service to others. Thats what i do, why i do what i do. I was first generation to go to college st. Marrys and i was department fearful of having an unplanned pregnancy and got the care i needed, and 33 years later, im in this position to guide our mission forward. And i believe because of the service i got im in the position to do this job. So it truly is an opportunity to pay it forward every day. And im so glad, when we opened the street in the very first patient to walk through the door. The first patient to come through the door was a latino and it was just like complete fulfillment for me and full circle. So every day and im so honored and blessed to be among the other designee. Its very sumbling. Thank you so much. [applause] so before i bring up my honoree, i want to in aggreeance with supervisor ronen that i do know the number of latino women that we have here, that contribute to the success and fabric of San Francisco, soy had to make a hard easy decision in selecting an honoree but i want to say congratulations to all the honoree here today. Thank you so much for all of your work but also for introducing a lot of latino culture to all of us here in San Francisco as you do your work on the daily. And so today, in celebration of latino heritage month, im honoring va len tina savenio. [applause] vantina has dedicated her entire career to serve hard to reach populations.

And just allow me to continue to, you know, serve my population that hits home is close to my heart is the systems impacted young people and i just couldnt do it without my family and my organization and family and i appreciate it. Thank you. Supervisor chan. Thank you, it truly is a privilege as district 1 supervisor that im able to honor some of the Richmond District most beloved Community Members. And i know if i go around the richmond, many many would agree with me that they are the most beloved Community Members in the richmond, the burmaho family, tomas also known as tommy and alny founded tommys Mexican Restaurant in the Richmond District in 1965. They have five children, almy, teresa, candy tomas and julio. The family has been supporting the Richmond Community for 57 years. Amazing family, they support our community breaking down culture and language barriers with delicious food, toms margarita, if you have not tried it, you should. But they have also built a restaurant that is not just a restaurant, it has been and continues to be a Community Hub where people celebrate each other. The family continues to build on the work, i should say the children continue to build on the work of their parents. Almy and tommy julio, i think that theyre here with me today. Le and julio has been named the tequila ambassador for north america. That is somebody that knows and continue to you know, share that culture and share that love for their culture or around and that its a real commitment. Xwu also almy the daughter that i know. That tells you about this family, that is so much more about the restaurant in the richmond, it is just about their legacy, it is about their community. I am so honored today, that to be able to present to you not just a family but really the matriarch of the family. She is, and just wanted to thank you for and thank the way that you raised your family that all of you, truly are the heart of our community. Thank you. [applause]. Supervisor chan thank you so much and thank you so much supervisors. Tried to start a business to make a living but to be part of the community and its so funny because you dont know if our city is one of the most liberal and progressive in the country. They named their restaurant tommy just so people could pronounce it. So you fast forward 50 years later and unless you know us, not everybody wants to go to a restaurant named tommies. And part of the hospitality sector which is the best in the world and what we do behind the bar its so proud for us to take a little bit of not only the Richmond District but San Francisco to every place that we go to and in fact, like supervisor chan said, today you can find on the menu from moscow to mumbai to manhattan to minnesota to modesty to mexico city, a Tommys Margarita and that goes back to the San Francisco and richmond and back to my parent. So again, an extreme privilege and honor to be here today. I love my mom just said a word. You can see im not used to this. But im person, thank you very very much, to the supervisors and to everyone to San Francisco that open his heart to us. Thank you so much. Gracias. Thank you. Congratulations again. [applause] .

Would you please call for our first 3 00 p. M. Special order items 19 and 20. Clerk yes, 19 is a hearing of supervisor sitting as a committee as a whole and number 20 and gar see drive. Development project area and approximately 152 acre site. Thank you, colleagues we have before you a committee of a whole vacation order for the park Merced Development project. I would like to invite jonathan cherry, the project manager of the Workforce Development to present on the ordinance, thank you jonathan. Thank you, president walton members of the board. Let me just get the slide up. Im also joined in the claim behr of public works. To hear public testimony regarding the proposed vacation of streets and public utility easements within park merced. Public works director has recommended conditions that must be met tied to the verification including certain easements and protections that will remain in place. And this lemg sleighsing is similar to an ordinance that was approved by the board previously for phases 1 a and b. Illinois just mention the last item, street system with a with focus on connectivity and safety. And that approves redesign which required the ordinance before you today. Were doing what we can to advance the project and how the Community Benefits will come a long with it. The project sponsor is currently working towards the start of construction next year on sub phases 1a and b. A approved site permit including 56 replacement units. Completion of subdivision actions for sub c and d which are shown on the screen in blue including the street and easement on todays agenda is needed for the project to obtain Construction Financing and begin construction on phase 1. And final motions for these sub phases. Now to walk you through, just illustrates the street segment shown in red, that would be vacated. The area that would be dedicated as future right away are shown in green and as you can see from the figures at the top of the slide, the city will receive more land in newly reconfigured public streets than it would reconvey as part of the vacation. Le and on the next slide, we can see the sfp sewer water easement that are suppose to be vacated. The city would vacate would no longer be needed following construction and in their place, non exclusive easement would replain in place until acceptance of new utilitieses by the city. With that ill stop there, thank you for your time. Ill be here for any questions along with public works staff. Thank you. Thank you so much jonathan, i dont see anybody on the roster for questions, can we go to Public Comment.

Units in San Francisco, time vacant. And management they offered that 30 of park merced is presently vacant or that is to say without anyone living there. Byway this is not expensive housing, this is affordable, is only going to add to the tolt vacancy rate in San Francisco.

But there is no action. For the longest time ever, i brought the attention to city of San Francisco that they were, over 30,000 homes vacant. Nobody would believe me, today 40,000, arbitrarily.

Thank you without objection, this ordinance is passed unanimously. Can you please call the next 3 00 p. M. Special order, 21 and 22.

Speaker [speaking spanish]. Clerk l. Thank you all for being here. If youre here in person and would like to speak, please line up now. Seeing no one here inperson, mr. Lamb is checking to see if we have any callers in the remote queue. Madam clerk, there are no callers. Clerk thank you, mr. President. Seeing no other speakers, Public Comment is now closed. Supervisor pesken. Thank you supervisor walton, i guess this is to is there somebody from oci . They are remote. I do see elizabeth. Yes, from ocii, Housing Program manager. Zoo its my understanding that this is due to some financing constraints likely not ready until december or january. So im wondering why youre asking to continue to november if its not going to be ready until january or february. This is the same thing that happened inland use yesterday which all of these items appeared on our calendar and it was not ready for primetime, i want to instead of continuing this for a date, theyre not ready, its not likely to be ready and financing issues are not likely to be resolved why were continuing it to november 1. Were continuing to to november 1, related to an general plan amendment portion of what were asking to be approved which becomes affective 90 days after introduction regardless of whether or not, if the board does not act. So we want to make sure that we have a not opportunity to address that before it happens. So respectfully cart before horse in the supervisor opinion, which i think given that you jumped the gun on the general plan amendment. And i said this yesterday in the committee, the appropriate thing to to in order to stop that clock from nicking is for the department of city planning to withdrawal and there and then reintroduce when youre ready. Alternative so you can introduce it but i dont think that you want us to do that buzz under the law there is a period of time which you have to wait before you introduce it. So rather than playing this silly game given that you have just acknowledge what they acknowledged which is not ready for primetime yet. I think the right thing to to, i was fine with it, a decade ago and im fine with it now. Xwu procedurely its not ready yet. When its ready, we introduce it and then, preassumely the board will approve it. Tore what its worth. Elizabeth do you have a response . I just wanted to t our General Council james miles is here, did he want to weigh in on procedure issue here . Fwaod afternoon jim, youre on mute. Good afternoon, president walton, members of the board. Were looking at the City Attorney office and Planning Department on the ability to withdrawal this without having deemed to be a dis approval. Were concerned that if the withdrawal is deemed to be a dis approval which is the concern of the City Attorneys office, that we would then be in this oneyear cooling off period where we would not be able to introduce the project. We understood its not a specific solution but it gives us time to figure out this question of whether we resubmit the general plan and start the clock again. So council morales through the president , ive been asking these questions for a little while. And i dont want to render advise, that triggers a year of cooling off period. I think if the Planning Department withdrawals it, we can refer to council chambers, its not a denial, its as though it never appeared. Thank you, City Attorney pierson, how would the planning withdrawing this item be a denial when we never had a chance to deny it. Deputy City Attorney, anne, so the general plan amendment is not before the board today. That was agendize jeder. So is the question is how to dispose of this item. We heard that the program is is not ready to act. Because continuing through a later date makes more sense. I was made aware that there were these concerns. And referred to the board, the board has 90 days to act on it, and if they fail to attributeding, it was deemed approved, so we recommend that the committee continue the items just so we have the best way to have it retract asked we want to avoid at any consequence such as rejecting it. More time will be available to the board and to work on the project. Thank you and i think for purposes of today, i definitely am in line with supporting motion to move this to november first. None of us have any good if we have to continue continuing. Zoo seeing no one else, thank you so much for appearing this afternoon. Public come has been closed, we have a motion to move these items to november 1 meeting made by supervisor dorsey seconded by supervisor mandelman, madam clerk on the motion. Clerk supervisor mandelman, aye, mar, mar, aye, supervisor melgar, aye, peskin aye, preston, aye, ronen, aye, safai aye, supervisor stefani, stefani aye, walton, walton aye, chan, aye, supervisor dorsey, dorsey aye, 11 ayes. Thank you so much with that clerk, the motion to continue to the november first is approved unanimously. And establishing a sunset date 15 months from the date of the ordinance. Thank you, supervisor ronen. I wanted to offer up some potential amendments to this ordinance but i wanted, im happy to talk about anybody wants to talk about the underlying legislation. However you want to do it. It sounds like supervisor peskin, oh you want to go after me, supervisor peskin, me, chan. Why dont we start with supervisor peskin, it looks like everybody else withdrew their name. Thank you, president and thank you supervisor ronen for that offer. Dating back to 2019 when most of you members of the board at the time, supported the creation of new section of chapter 19 b which was a provision that actually not a San Francisco first, i think we were the 7th municipality in the state of california to adopt legislation which required all of our, how they used it for what purposes and what the protocols around the use of that februarying knowledging are ranging from who the data is shared with, what City Employees have access to the data how long the data is stored, a series of used policies and over the intervening years, albeit, we had a little bit of covid and a little bit of shut down in all of things, in thed middle of it, some two dozen have brought us about surveillance fiment that none of us knew we had. Sf its been a transparent that makes the dpept think about these technology and think about what is appropriate in a very quickly evolving fields. These are not just surveillance cameras everything from numerous technology, license plate, readers, buses drones, you name it. And we have after each of policies, through the Administrators Office on Information Technology vetting have been pursuant to chap 15 reviewed those policies and each and everyone one of them and there are many many forthcoming, as a matter of fact i was speaking to administrator and were halfway through. I will say that the San FranciscoPolice Department was not anxious or forthcoming in bringing any surveillance used policies to this board of supervisors or that matter of committee on Information Technology. You will recall that Something Else happened which is the mayor ill say instead introduced a ballot measure that would have amended the law that we passed in these chambers. I with a number of challenges, on a number occasions cooler heads prevailed. Both ballot measures were withdrawn and the Police Department was encouraged to walk in through the indoor with their use tech with their use policies. This is the first of many. This only scratches the policies of used policies that the Police Department needs to bring to us. By the way there are a number of other departments that have been through and will be before the rules committee and the weeks ahead. Since it has been introduced has been changed the version that has been before you after four public hearings is version number 3 and earlier versions that are not part of that list. As i said in Committee Last week, is to bal aps the American Values and rights to privacy in the public realm. To protect our Civil Liberties and to allow Law Enforcement to with rules utilize certain technology to make San Francisco safer. I think that has been what we have all been trying to get to. As i said the other day, is this perfect . Probably not. Is it worth a try . I think so. Byway unanimously. They do have that allowance around it. But in this case, what i suggested and the committee unanimous lea greed to this amendment, was a sunset of this used policy to consider one years worth of data, youll see its a 15month sunset. If we approve the policy and the mayor signs it, it does not go into affect and we need to accumulate a month of data and we need time to analyze that and make whatever decision, we make which would be extend the existing policy for a period of time or forever or to modify that policy or to allow it to terminate and not be reviewed. Those are our options. So that would be a homeowner, shop keeper and yes that could be our benefit districts many of whom have cameras outside that are, in essence privately owned. There are two buckets that bare our attention, one what is clearly a historic practice. And that is the aoutization of historic footage. Ei, there are cameras whether there are privately or publicly owned that people access not only Law Enforcement they have been used by the opinion defender to exonerate people who commit crimes. Goes back to the daze of camcorder that was used to tape the beating of rodney king. And that is the use of life monitoring beyond circumstances. And i have, heard and listened to and work to narrow but i think appropriately so at least four our oneyear test. I realize thats a sum. Im willing to give it a try. So i want to give that background, it was a split vote in committee with myself and supervisor mandelman sending it with a positive recommendation to this board. And supervisor chan who decented. So i want today give that outline. I do want to offer that im sure she will speak to with me, and one of them i indicated sometime ago to various interested parties including the public defender himself, i thought was worth while. And what we have setforth, i think there are some metrics that could be added and so i know that we will talk about all of these things but im prepared to support and will did i sim nature to all of you in a second some language that is even a little more robust. In closing i will say this, which is im proud of 19 b, absent 19 b, we would not be talking about this. The practices would have gone on without rules, whether they were historic practices or new practices there was no oversight, there were no policies, there was no public discussion. The fact that we are having this discussion is remarkably important. The fact that we are actually saying, whether we agree or not, these are the rules Going Forward and you have to show us what you did and every time that you use live monitoring and who granted that permission with what articulatable credible reasons and did it make San Francisco favor . We would not be having those conversations. D its ironic with me, because there are people that were unhappy. And i keep reminding myself and others, that we would not be having this conversation had we not had this transparent accountability law that we originally passed. With that, thank you for your indulgence colleagues. Thank you supervisor peskin. Thank you foregrounding us in that history, supervisor peskin, that was helpful. Im also very proud of the work that you and your staff did. Creating 19 b. Technology is developing alt such a pa rid rate and involves so much surveillance. At the same time that politics at the National Level is becoming increasingly and i dont think this is an exaggeration, fascist. There has been a politics including a president who are taking this country during a fascist path. That you would not have imagined decades ago. That these people are running for office. You have a Supreme Court that is eroding our right to privacy in including taking away our rights which was established under the rights to make our own reproductive choices. We carry around these phones willingly that are sur veiling us 24 hours a day, we make purchases online that we dont even know who is sur vague that data and what theyre doing with it. We have music players that record everything we say. Not that thats a good thing, its been famous books written about societies. There is been fasist societies that we can look into where your every movement can land you in jail because you disagreed slightly with the government. These are reality dangers, we can talk about 60s, but, right now, were at this critical juncture with do we want to give the state, the Police Department for power to live food First Amendment activity in the streets. When we see lucy goose circumstances that are placed in this law. A couple of things, under circumstances if there is a credible threat that a crime is being committed or that there is imminent threat to life and safety my answer would be yes, we should let them. Police should be able to access life or death. But these significant events in order to best established how to deploy officers, that is not a power that i feel comfortable giving under under the circumstances that i laid out. It feels to me that were giving away, more powercious in this case the Police Department to survey our practices. Thats becoming a scarier scarier thing to do in this country. This does not sit well with me at all. I had a conversation with chief scott about this. I have a ton of respect for chief scott and i think under his leadership, he would probably use this power in a responsible way. But how long is chief spot going to be the chief of San Franciscos Police Department . We dont know these things. So from a policy perspective, we should be creating protections that are laws that think about what is happening to our future, what is the ambiance in government. How much we would be protecting the rights to San Francisco si sens to their privacy. And safety has often been used throughout history to get people to give up their right to privacy. And i think we need to not give into those scare tactics but instead be really thought about this and thoughtful of what were doing here. Like supervisor peskin said, there are two amendments im offering. And, and also i want to agree that when a crime has been committed, that in my world is acceptable, we should continue that practice. I dont have a problem of collecting evidence of past crimes. I also dont have a problem and im going to iterate this second time in enter gin circumstances for police to protect for safety. You police should not be able to use live feed surveillance for those purposes. So the First Amendment that im offering is on page , line 23 and 18 through 250 and basically just removing the significant event with Public Safety concerns. That, i mean, any significant event has Public Safety concerns. Just the amount of people, the heat, people getting trample, thats saying, that police they can sur veil all live events. And that makes ne incaed a mraoe uncomfortable. And the second if he wants to make it stronger orphan tastic, the item is, you know, if that amendment does not pass, if this piece of legislation goes forward, at the very least, we have an independent auditor, really take a close look at what happened over the 15 months. What type of significant events were sur veiled, what was the outcome . Were peoples rights infringed upon, that could be done by a third party expert by the controller by the bla, and the amendment that i proposed is you know, on lines 5, online 6, line 2 through 3 and line 6cious line 5 through 11 and on lines 11 through 15 or, no more or less. Colleagues i would love to have a vote on the two amendments, if they pass i would be voting to support this ordinance. If they dont pass, i would be opposing it, and i really really think we have to, to consider this really really carefully. Were not living you know, 30, 20 years ago were living today when we had a president that was, you know, had no problem trampling on every single right in trying to pond us in the constitution and there is a lot of leaders in congress that are very very scary. Thank you. Thank you supervisor are onen do we have a second . Second by supervisor chan. Supervisor chan. Thank you, and i first want to thank supervisor peskin for all work that he has done on this policy. And i have you know, sat through the rules committee for total of four hearing for the very least, i was one of the signature that signed on for for the ballot measure. So im grateful for to supervisor peskin and his leadership. I wanted to remember that he was the author to use facial technology in San Francisco. That said, supervisor peskin has really been leading the issues on protecting the citys privacy right as well as balancing the Public Safety. That said, i, i have, i voted in the sense of this because i have a lot of questions around life monitoring. I also waufnted to thank supervisor ronen for also working on language to further define and clarify and narrow down the scope of live monitoring. With both presskin work work. Were narrowed down the scope of live monitoring, were clarifying some of the protocols and process. We have put in a sensitive date of 15 months from the time that its been implemented. I think that those are good measures, safeguard but like supervisor peskin has said, is it enough . Is it enough for the time being . But from what i stand, i think even with the 15 months what were looking at right now is not enough to safeguard several rights is not enough to safeguard our citys privacy rights when so much is at stake. I do believe especially given some of the conversations that we have including an example that some of you have heard and read about is the cat latic converter theft or incidents i should say, allege that the suspect live witness, live video but the suspect was let go nonetheless. Many reasons for it, but that also is a good example whether its live witness or live monitoring, does that really make us safer . Does it really help the police doing their work . Raise a lot of question. That there is the existing Legal Process that, you know, allowing the Police Departments to get a warrant when the time when a crime has committed that they can obtain the foot anl so they can investigate and arrest. Also during the rules committee conversation that i have expressed and i would like to ex here as well. When compared to life monitoring or so balanced, nothing beats the community policing, having our Police Officers on the streets in our community, and in actually being part of our person and deterring crime inperson. So in im in support of the amendment today. But based on the principal of just not enough safeguard of this legislation that i still will be voting against this legislation. Thank you. Thank you, i just want to give my own perspective in terms of this and how im approaching it and why im a cosponsor of this legislation. Know we all saw the live videos, over the course of the last few years that were essentially had individuals fwg in in realtime and robbing in many ways with inpaounity, during the summer of 020 a little bit of after covid began. Some of the things that i saw in social media did not seem like something was this a pattern . Was this real . A real epidemic or one off. I went down to visit smft smaller businesses and saw ten individuals come walking into the wall screens while one aod outside and within minutes, they ran down the street to get the maouncious this to me signaled a departure from many of the things that we considered normal behavior in civil society. We had a hearing and in many way wz, it was hard to hear. But some felt that San Francisco had grown to be retail crime happening in the country. This was real, this was happening on a daily basis. Individuals were walking out from multiple stores filling orders valued of thousands and thousands of dollars with inpaounity. We put together a Retail Working Group after that, im very happy chief scott shared that with me, along with organized neighbor, along with the california retailers and we set out to come up with some real solutions, one is 10 a, with you all who supports that, were starting to see we talked about and worked with supervisor ronen on the permitting for saoet day one, day one, it had a dramatic impact on the mission. Thank you supervisor ronen for your strength with that. And second thing we talked about, was needs to be reminded what happened a week before black friday where millions of thatser worth of goods were taken. There were threw seeks but this was so this is not in my opinion, this is something that would be utilized in San Francisco as a deterrent. We have been committed to all kinds of justice reform. And weve seen the engagement from the Police Department from our public defender, district attorney, and weve seen some really good reform in terms of justice reform. Criminals are very very organized. They know our Police Officers are ordered not to engage in chase via vehicle under very extreme circumstances. They know that there is not live footage monitoring of many of the activities that they are involved in. They know that they can come in and not be pursued because there is a short aming of Police Officers. I want to thank supervisor peskin, im glad we did the original legislation that we did. And lets be honest were put forward a a piece of legislation that went through a massive vetting and through the channels and if anyway was being abused, we can come back and amend. We can amend this legislation, the minute its immaterial mrimented if it was being abused. So i have all the confidence in the room, we got three pages or more from the Police Department. Very detailed description on the implementation and the circumstances under which how they define Public Safety concerns. How they define how the video footage would be stored and utilized. I have all the confidence in the wolfeder that this is the right piece of legislation. I do know and weve all seen the reports that crime has risen to be part of the most important issues for the city of San Francisco. Tt our duty and obligation that will act first and for most as a deterrent. We want to im happy to be a cospon or, i take the issues seriously. I think that is why we have the monitoring. I think thats why we have the reporting and thats why were working in and thats why were working to ensure that that this is done appropriately. Thank you, supervisor safai. Thank you, president walton. Last november 19th, San Francisco was among a number of jurisdiction in the bay area that over the course of that weekend saw a number of orchestrated commercial rob hes. This was national news, i think San Francisco as it often does, as a groebl plan and this is something that fwot a lot of national. In the immediate aftermath of that weekend, the cities of san jose took steps to en distance their to determine that kind of criminal act. And they did so almost immediately and here we are ten months removed from that incident. My concern is not the existence of thoughtful guard rails and i theyre supervisor ronens about what were doing rapidly. And now may be used by government that are losing confidence at the federal level. My certain is respond to orchestrated crime. It should not be easier to get away with crime in south San Francisco than in and my risk is that the rifl Liberties Community would be focused on state level so we can all be on a level playing field. That said, i do appreciate the leadership of supervisor peskin to hammer out something that works for our but after ten months of real estating this, im comfortable with the deal that has been struck by supervisor peskin and im going to be supporting that. I do think that this is something, my swish is that we are mindful to protect our businesses and our tourism from these kinds of problems that i fear we may not be doing as good a job to address. Thank you, ill attempt to be brief since were all going to speak on this. I do want to extend my thanks to our chair peskin for working with the Police Department over and Mayors Office with the year long period. I think that where they got is good and has a right set of guard rails and ill be are supporting the amendment that he is proposing taod. And i also think it says something about to get the work that the people have not gotten. Or if we have not been able to do that. This is one where were getting it done right. I share the anxiety of colleagues and others in the, well at least in San Francisco, about what happens in donald trump or another fas ifpt is elected to the United States and how it can be over used by an over weaning government on the bon surveillance, we need to look at the dangers and challenges. Right now here in this city, we have a Police Department that is sunday staffed to the tune of 500 officers and that number is growing. We have technology that we can use and with appropriate guard rails that will allow our under staffed Police Department to function for a tech tiffly not in the future but in the here and now. And i think thats what this policy does as it has been crafted. Ill be supporting supervisor peskin amendment but not the others. Thank you supervisor mandelman. Thank you, i just want to thank supervisor peskinnon creating article 19 b and the framework for us to have this important policy. I also really appreciate that that the board and mayor are working together through the legislative process instead of another policy fight. I do support the use of technology and new technology to as one to keep our neighborhood safe and in our city safe with appropriate guard rails. I do support the ordinance. In particular, i appreciate the oneyear the fact that this is now one Year Pilot Program and then after that period, well really be able to evaluate whether this, these policy did in deed help enhance Public Safety at large events and help and whether it helped the Police Department investigate crime. And whether there is abuse of the policy. Or that it was used in ways that infringe on First Amendment rights. I do think the legislation as amended, strikes a good balance here protecting both Public Safety and civil rights. I do support the additional amendment. I think supervisor ronen described or presented and i think supervisor peskin mentioned he might have something a little different that strengthens the requirement. I think that the more data and reporting that we have during the oneyear pilot period, the more well be able to evaluate this policy. So thank you. Thank you supervisor mar, supervisor presston. Thank you, and i agree with some of the comments that i heard and i disagree with some. Ill just say that im struck by and saddened by how far weve come from 2020 and our shared, i thought commitment to changing our city and our society. Mostly and false data some of which gets repeated but most of which is outside of these chambers, were lead to scrap as many as quickly as possible. And move towards more and more police and more is more surveillance and more and more incarceration. That is my, when i hear about under staffing, i realize as a body handed 50 Million Dollars extra in increases to the Police Department this year with no real showing of need because they were so supposedly under staffed. Now not only do they have to have the extra Million Dollars to staff up but also they have to have dramatically expanded dramatic rights because theyre theoretically under staffed. That does not resonate. As others have, recognize supervisor peskins leadership in, as has been noted in 19 d in bringing us to the point where we have this before the board. I think thats very significant. And also want to thank the rules committee for their detailed work on this with multiple hearings, i want to acknowledge the concerns raised and the involvement of advocates bar association, Police CommissionCivil Rights Organization and many otherser who have raised concerns. Trying to thread a needle which prevented from going to the ballot and shape a sensible policy. So i think there is value to that transparency. You ne, i think its too brad. I want to start i dont think the police have made the case for the need to go beyond exit circumstances in the live surveillance. I think that objecteder nans that did not have the live sur ville ans. And historical use, well be having a very different conversation. Were looking at the law that despite all the care that has been given to come to a compromise and hopefully live with, allowing very sweeping even on its own terms. Would allow live surveillance access to live surveillance of most any block. With the concerns around gathering protest and surveillance there. Consistent with investigating that misdemeanor, that is really concerning, and i think its significantly browder than it should be. And you allow the historical in building the case, you can get the footage. I dont see the need to go beyond that, that case has not been made. I will be supporting supervisor ronens amendment. But cant support the ordinance as is. Thank you supervisor presston, supervisor stefani. Thank you, and i do want to thank supervisor presspeskin for leading this discussion and presenting it in a way to balance the right of privacy. I have lived here for 8 years, when im all said and done it will be 18 years. And i have noticed with my own eyes and ears that, that things are different. And people do not feel as safe as they once did. And i know at least from my constituents is that the theyre demanding that we do take a more proactive. To, to gain control over people and i dont think thats what is happening here. But i do want to acknowledge the concerns. I have my italian passport ready to go. I want it acknowledge the concerns because i dont dismiss them at all. But this piece of legislation, i dont have the concerns in the way that i just know tao, not a fantasy that we are short Police Officers and its not propaganda in all of what has been said, its, numbers its data on how we determine who is calling 911 and how fast we can get there to help them and we cannot get there fast enough. We have to rely on officers for overtime. There are a lot of things that we could be doing that we dont get to do because of staffing shortages, and those are things that we ask for. Building community all the things that we want our officers to do and they should do, we cannot and just for comparisons sake, put 10,000 resident, chicago has 44, dc61 and we have 22. That makes a difference. The numbers have real life consequences im not saying survey everyone. Thats what were doing here. What were doing here is balances policy based on the numerous hearings that weve had lead by supervisor peskin about that precious right to privacy that supervisor ronen spoke about to keep safe. When you look at what the significant Public Safety and what that is in the definition of that is defined as a large or promile event in the city where spd, special manage street closures and baracade and special Investigation Division manages Homeland Security unit is assigned to potential terrorists or criminal attack. Its not for everything. I do believe that its a false evaluation. Its not in the legislation. For significant Public Safety events, sfpd can only use live monitoring for purpose of deploying personnel and max of 24 hours. This is not in every event which just happened in my district when they burned down part of the armenian church. I also just had a serial predator attack another person in chess nut street, and yes its a problem. They keep going out, this person keeps after women, attacking them and something needs to be done. We also know this is for visiting dignitary which i think is important. Which i fear. People that want to do harm to San Franciscoians and we know what they did before. And if youve seen recently, the amount of requests to our serves department in terms of those who want to carry guns in San Francisco, has skyrocketed. So i do believe there is a need for Police Department to have exception to see what they have now which is only being able to use live monitoring or view live monitoring with the request in risk of death or serious bodily injury. I think that we have reached a place where we balance the need for everyone to feel safe with the right to privacy and for everyone to feel safe from those that would do us harm. I trust the Police Department to carry that out. I trust the body to hold the Police Department accountable and thats why im going to support supervisor peskins amendment. I will not be able to support supervisor ronens amendment but i do understand her concerns. You know, where we are in our country, i completely understand, i just think that we have come to a police where we have enough safeguards in this legislation where were able to pull back as a body if we think its being abused. And i im prepared to vote for this one, and i want to thank supervisor peskin for his great work. Thank you supervisor stefani. Supervisor melgar. Thank you, i want to thank supervisor peskin, for the heavy lifting and also to your staff. And i want to thank supervisor ronen for listening to advocates. In the past year and 7 months that ive been supervisor of district 7, i would say that easily 40 of the issues that we hear about from our constituents are about crime. And specifically the rise in property crime in district 7. During the pandemic, some of the more difficult things are on commercial corridors. Nevertheless as a steep rise did cause several businesses to go under. Wouldnt afford to keep their doors open when people were breaking in. Technology has made our lives better its just a tool and despite not always to supervisor comments, to supervisor, i dont always trust the Police Department. But its reform those aspects of our policing that we dont think are appropriate for modern times. So i, also it occurs to me that a captain of a precinct with right now set up on a block supervisor preston to your comments, if surveillance is needed by a Police Officer they can send a Police Officer to that block and its a little less intimidating to have a camera there than to have a Police Officer. I would be supporting supervisor thank you. Thank you, supervisor melgar. Supervisor peskin. Thank you colleagues for all of the applaud zone, i think theyre deserved but im in deed trying to make the best of it and clearly have not reached consensus. Only would remove one of the three authorized uses around significant events. Which as supervisor stephanie, correctly stated, we limited to the role turp of true deployment in major events. And did so in a back and forth with the police. And i like the afford the Police Department an opportunity to address that specific issue. I actually thought tfts number 3 that was going to be the more controversial issue but supervisor ronen amendments keep those in. So i would like to afford ms. Stevens the opportunity to address number 2. And by the way, if you watched this in committee, im sorry for the repetition but for the people that didnt see t i think its worth rehearing. And there are some very clear constraints around that use as it relates to significant events as defined. One i did not wish to turn this into a committee hearing. But i do want to say, do you have an amendment to move . Well what i was going to offer and ive emailed to you after i spoke to it and i can speak to it now, is the metric amendment that supervisor ronen suggested which is on page 5 at starting at line 19, for live monitoring. The courterly reports this is existing language. Including the reasons or reasons item captain found the information credible whether the request was granted by the non city entity and add the language. To add the total cost of the department and include any other sem in a one block radius. So just additional but im happy to speak to those after we vote on the first set of amendments. So are you moving those. Im happy to move those subsequent to voting on supervisor ronens more extensive amendments. Im happy to make a motion for that back up amendment. Thank you for your at the same times and i do appreciate all the work that has gone in to something i consider dead issue. For me, i want to dispel the smith that Police Officer cannot get private camera. It happens right now, you can do that right now. Ive seen it happen, ive been a bit of conversations that where it happens. I just have to make sure that that is stated for the report. And for me, its always an issue. We have to remember the precedence that were always setting. I know the process is just trust us. But people have been violating Civil Liberties since my an shefters were brought here from entirely different continent. So this whole trust the police, i dont know where were going to get that. Deputy chief but when you set a precedence like this youre still allowing people to determining the implementation of a policy is. We know that people make mistakes. Im not willing to do anything to tool the liberty. The simple fact that the services can be violated. As somebody who has to consistently to find leadership of constitutional protections, these policies are what i fear the most. Especially as a black man, i made some mistakes but and done some wrong things. This is dangerous and ive had to share this conversation with our chief of police as well. There is no such thing as immediately changing negative affects. No such things. We still have people locked up for things that are now legal. People locked up for things that are legal, because the hardest thing to do in this city and world, is to right a wrong. Thats the hardest thing to do. You can ask slave or people who lived in intermments camps particularly saskatchewan slaves, the hardest thing to do in this country is to right a wrong. When you put a law in the books, changing that law is not just as easy and arbitrary as its made to believe in some of these conversations. And this is not part of the course. This policy, this legislation thats the sole ability to affect the already slow space in reforms that we have in place. I cannot be part of that setting that precedence and i think its unfortunate that we may be doing that. Some of the example given by my colleagues that i respect are solvable with the current surveillance that Police Officers are allowed to use. If you running a store items, you can be caught by the camera that is of course is in place by that store. Or use somebodys camera across the street. If you break the glass of a car window, which car has been broken and it was definitely expensive to have been victimized youll be caught on camera and footage can be used. Live feeds cannot be used. And if the argument is we dont have enough officers, who the heck is responding to these live calls . Who is responding to these live feed calls . And to add another tool to that violation is just something, i dont believe that we should do and i respect the work of everybody in this chamber. Thats justed a reality i wanted to make sure that i stated that, supervisor ronen did you want to let ms. Steins. I dont think its fair, i watched the whole hearing and it was supervisor chans comments in the hearing that truly inspired me to drop these amendments. I thought supervisor chan made a series of excellent points and i thought you were amazing, it was watching that hearing that lead me to have the passion to have the conversation today. Now a couple of things i want to say. Number 1 im not surprised that supervisor peskin is surprised that we didnt remove prong number 3 which i too supervisor presston with a major issue with the misdemeanor part, i think thats problematic for a million reasons. However in the spirit of trying to get something through, and knowing this board and knowing the Propaganda Machine and the press right now around the state of San Francisco, i chose to leave that alone and try to appeal to, a privacy rights and our First Amendment rights not to be sur veiled by the police when were expressing an opinion often about controversial issues. And i too supervisor, president walton and quite shocked but by this boards actions and this is the city of San Francisco, its a sad state of affairs. But you know, what are you going to do . I also wanted to make the point that supervisor peskins amendments are very different from the amendment that im suggesting in one major way. I would be happy to add, supervisors lets take my amendments in two parts. Im not sure that everybody will vote the same way in both parts. The first part, there may be four of us that support and the rest wont thats one thing. But the second part requires an independent audit of this information. It brings up a lost issues, we should have a different entity, review the metrics. Supervisor peskin added a metric in his amendment that i love and would be happy to add into the metric of the Second Amendment, that makes total sense. But its not the same amendment for that reason. I dont know supervisor peskin if you would be willing to combine for the second part only. And if president walton were allowed to have two separate votes. You can split your own amendments too. Okay, so ill split the amendments. So if what i would like to do ideally and i want to see if supervisor peskin amenable to this. The first has to do with removing live monitoring at events, that dont involve a circumstance, remove that completely have a vote on that. The Second Amendment is about the metrics of the data that the Police Department is required to collect and asking for an independent audit and review and analysis of that data. And i believe with that Second Amendment, there is an opportunity for supervisor peskin and i to combine our two amendments and to have a vote on that is supervisor peskin is amenable. First, let me make sure that supervisor chan is okay with it. So we will take the first one. Separately. And then i believe its an order to have a discussion if im not mistaken about what you and supervisor peskin may want to do after this first motion amendment is passed or failed. Supervisor peskin is your burning desire for us to have thank you. All right, lets, okay, supervisor safai. I think you may have a committee haerk. Hearing. I want a point of order, im not sure what is being pointed out. Thats a point of information. Thank you. Thank you supervisor safai. The first that were about to have is on page 2, to remove the section called significant events with Public Safety concerns. And on page on page 4, line 18 remove the same, the same section. So this in other words, this policy. And on page 7 sub h . Yes, thats right. So do you understand now what that First Amendment is. I did wanted to make sure that it was read clearly into the record that you were talking about three specific spaces. She also divided and mentioned just one sentence so i just wanted point of view. If we can have a vote on that first. That would be the first vote. Correct. And are you clear about the second one. Lets do the first one first. All right, so we have a motion to move forward the first set of amendments made by supervisor ronen and seconded by supervisor chan did we get that recorded . Yes, the first side of amendments on supervisor ronens amendment. Thank you, would you please call the roll for that amendment. Yes, supervisor mandelman. No. Mar, no. Melgar, no, peskin, no. Preston, preston aye, supervisor ronen, aye. Safai, no. Supervisor stefani. Stefani, no. Walton, aye. Supervisor chan. Aye. Supervisor doresey, no. There are 4 aye sxz 7 nos, with supervisor mandelman and mar, peskin, and sfasi. Thank you, the motion to amend does not pass. [gavel] supervisor peskin. Lets see if we can do this together. So there are a cup of three things going on here. One is the language that supervisor are onen has proposed on page 6. Well the meat of is on page 6 which is language which says total cost associated with the request and usage. And i have slightly more robust language that i read into the record. So i would like to pause at that for a second. The second is, that pulling of historical footage and metrics for live monitoring. I would like to submit to all of you that the metrics for pulling historic footage and mind you, respectfully mr. President contrary to what you said, there have been no real rules of the road for the pulling of historical footage until this policy. Yes its a historic and yes its gone on for decades, no offense to the bar, requires a warrant if people voluntarily wish to provide to lawsuit. I would submit to you, that i think were all concerned about. So i would suggest that that we only apply these live metric to see live monitoring. And i would go further to thed language that supervisor ronon has proposed at the bottom of the paragraph in starting in line 12 which is that this board intends to identify strategies for and i want to talk about the word independent but for he value oohation. Evaluation. And ink that we have in at our disposal. I suggest that we go with the log that i passed on earlier which i read into the record. And then adding a a revision which would say after the last paragraph in the sub section Data Security that begins with reporting, a new paragraph has inserted that reads, we have a Second Amendment. Combined. Madam clerk, or deputy City Attorney pierson anything that we have to do i understand the amendment and i think that they have described it for the record and im able to put that into writing afterwards. Thank you. I just need clarification to understand the language. If supervisor ronen is agreeing to what supervisor peskin is proposing. Line 25 and that is specifically mentioning the in a oneblock radius for the month prior to the live monitoring as well as live monitoring so were agreeing to adopt that language. Now in supervisor ronens on page 6 line 5, that specifically for a procedure or protocol but from what supervisor peskin has mentioned, that its agreeing to a live monitoring request not for historical footage. So i want to understand from supervisor ronens version were addressing historical request or addressing live monitoring footage request. So im agreeing to removing the hifpt cal footage request. Sorry and adopting live monitoring. Yes. So the information that will be collected and then analyzed by an independent department will be just the live monitoring incidents. Which would apply to numbers 1, 2 and 3. Agency, significant events and the misdemeanor felony. Right, thank you. Thank you, supervisor chan. Just for my clarity, supervisor peskin how are we going to have independent oversight if we leave it up to another department under the ospeces of this government. We respectfully do it all the time. Thats item budget and legislative words for the board of supervisors and created in around 1970, 71. But they work for us. So youre talking about Something Like the bla. Right. Or Constitutional Office confirmed by the board of supervisors and in the way supervisor wrote this paragraph, it says that the board intends to identify strategies for independent and then i inserted the city. Im happy to say for the budget and legislative analyst. We can just, we dont have to identify strategies if you want to further refine this on the spot, the department understand the board intends to have the analyst evaluate the ethicacy. That works. Thank you for that clarity. Hold on ms. Pierson you good with that . I am good with that, this is fb just an amendment to the Police Department policy. So theyre not really in a position to required that the bla do this report. The board may still need to act by motion to direct it. Thank you, supervisor presston. Thank you,r maybe we can do this between now and second reading. I just dont know if we heard from the bla that we heard from the capacity. As somebody who fought in the budget process and thank you colleagues for all supporting the minimum increase to the capacity so they can, you know, work with us more closely on oversight work its long overdue. I dont know exactly what this review en tailds and i dont think we want to hear from them live in the spot. But i want to make sure if were going to write that they have capacity to fulfill that. I have strong suspicious that they have the capacity to exist. Supervisor chan. I just want to clarify with our deputy City Attorney that these amendments consider substancetive. No theyre not.

Yes, next up on roll call for introductions is supervisor mar. Thank you, supervisor melgar. Thank you, colleagues. So today i have a request to our controller, for something that i care deeply about and have been working on supervisor ronen which is the services that we provide to youth in our city. So you all may remember that former president norman had an effort along with the community to create collaboration with former mayor ed lee our children are families. Which oversaw the investment in Childrens Program through the childrens fund. So our children and our Families Committee was composed of 47 people. And it included all of these departments and a bunch of folks who were suppose to align our investment in children services. Now that committee has met a couple of times, but because it was unyield it has not achieved anything. But if you look at our our children our families website you will see that they have quite a bit of reporting on how different departments are doing with outcomes for children. So i have talked to our controller and are requesting that they do an analysis of Children Fund on the outcome. I have worked for a nonprofit that works supporting youth it has president walton. And in the nonprofit, youre suppose to report regularly and often on whether or not you achieve our outcomes. Whether youre meeting the outcomes that the money is suppose to come, youre suppose to do it in the database and in the format that the department requires. But our departments are not required to do the same. But there are no metrics guidelines or reporting requirement nothing to say whether or not were meeting the golds that weve all set together. So im formerly requesting that our controller do an assessment of the money that were giving the departments through the childrens base line and figure out whether or not we are meeting the goals that we have all decided that we want to meet. And the rest i submit, thank you. Thank you supervisor melgar. Supervisor peskin. Submit. Supervisor preston. Commit. Submit. Supervisor ronen, thank you, supervisor safai, well go back to him. Supervisor stefani. Submit. President walton. Submit. Supervisor chan. Submit. Supervisor dorsey. Thank you, colleagues im introducing a hearing request for growing area of concern in bicycle parking. I use bike chair as my transportation, and it has changed game in many ways. It has changed bicycle politics and for the better. By ziggy expanding the number of people who have a steak in Bicycle Safety and by policy generally. The advent has also changed the game by making bicycling a more option. Ebike is acknowledged as a gateway to ebikes. And with the growing number of cyclist, i heard that they have real concerns about where to park their personal bikes especially ebikes which are more expensive.

Thank you. And the rest i submit. Thank you supervisor dorsey, supervisor safai. Thank you, madam clerk, colleagues, couple much things i rise on today. First is regarding earthquake safety its been 30 years since San Francisco created, its about about 20 years since San Francisco created a 30year implementation Safety Program going back to mayor newsom. That required Property Owner to have their buildings strengthened. Today were taking another step in the direction. Because we know its not a matter of if but a matter of when. I want to thank along with supervisor peskin. Were submitting a drafting request that would require an evaluation to look at the concrete buildings. Developing a new retrofit program to identify and strengthen vulnerable concrete buildings. So some types are now known to be unsafe in a large earthquake. So damage would endanger lives and slow the citys recovery from an earthquake. The citys executive Panel Includes city administrator, carmen shoe our new Firm Director of building, department of building inspection, Patrick O Riordan and our department of management. Another thing were doing is declare october 25th, clean air day in San Francisco. It encourages california to take the pledge to make our air cleaner. Some simple things that we can do include what many of us do, walking or taking Public Transportation to meetings. Im not idling car engines, planting trees which supervisor walton joins me in doing consistently in our districts. Making Home Improvement and eliminating woodburning fireplaces. District 11 families, suffer from very poor air quality being bound on both sides by freeways 280 and 101 so our community have stepped up over the last few years to plant thousands of trees and will continue to do education campaigns in our schools and community areas. Both Latino Task Force and guadalupe have received micro grants to educate Community Members to take this pledge. So well continue to advance that and promote that information in our community.
