My name is owning martinez representing well, a member the San Francisco latino Historical Society not representing them i support the continuance but to give you a little bit of background on this whole situation back in the early 2000 in the eastern neighborhoods plan was started the Planning Department didnt think they had to do the historic surveys and took a couple of years after a lot of public pressure and pressure from the board of supervisors that they finally did the survey and the eir for the eastern neighborhoods acknowledges that the Resources Survey with lagging behind seriously behind and when the mission the survey for the mission was completed and present to the public it was discovered a serious omissions in the Latino History was not covered after 1848 were in the process of doing a historic statement technically the work shouldnt have happened without the work being done now the plan should include the historic Cultural Heritage and the support for the sustainability of resources including the Cultural Resources so never the ground work for the latino Historic Resources in an ideal world that would have been put off until after december when we had the statement available but for now i support the continuance thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Noipdz a ann good afternoon, supervisors i one of the researchers and also with the latino Historical Society the reason we started it because we were left out of this our history was left out of Historic Resources report and one the finding to date the Mission District was the center the China Movement that recognizes internationally and our political latino political and social Justice Movement as well as the latino Labor Movement for those of you who dont know is it hadnt been the effort of social central caucus of labor two 61 and others latinos would in not to have a political voice in the city and a building they taught language to their workers so 0 without the union force we wouldnt have had a political voice and would have never had the city hall the l. B.
