I told her nine years and she said im a oh my god. Im exhausted and have only worked so many months. It is. Its really hard work. Everybody does that does this work is really passionate.

I was talking about healthcare issues which i want to get Emergency Shelter for new healthcare issues. I do want it continue. But im sick and tired of the continuous with no money. [inaudible]. Thank you very much. Seeing no other members of the public Public Comment is closed for this continuous. [gavel] begin with that, can we take a continuance to the meeting of january for this continuous. [gavel] begin with that, can we take a continuance to the meeting of january 26 without objection. Without objection the motion is adopted. Unanimously. [gavel]. Clerk, can you please read the without reference to Committee Items items 1319 are being considered for immediate adoption without committee reference. The single will call vote may enact these items Syndicate Member may eject and have it considers utterly. The clerk im going to go item number 13 and item number 19. Supervisor wiener clickable item 14. Supervisor mar number 15. Supervisor avalos 17, please. Madam clerk call each item please start with item number 13. Item 13 resolution towards the director of Public Health and the sheriff to convene a working group to plan for the coming closure county jail number three and four. Thank you. This is the item, colleagues, i introduced when we voted on the jail project at our last meeting. No supervisor avalos has recommended changes and i wanted to hear his proposed recommended changes at this time. Supervisor avalos thank you. Im not sure if its going to involve amending a resolution, but maybe just having some agreement about what kind of process will have for the working group. First off, i think is led by the department of Public Health. Thats the lens were looking at at the services were looking at to put in place instead of the jail. Theres also been a call from the note jail in San Francisco coalition, whos done a tremendous amount of work on the disapproval of the jail and make sense that a large number of Committee Involvement in the working group. Effect of 50 , 1, majority of Community Members involved in the working group. They also want to make sure as the resolution states, that we are involving formerly incarcerated people and organizations representing people who been incarcerated. Also, because theres a disproportionate representation of African Americans in our jail system here in San Francisco, not just herethat africanamericans are going to have a large body of people who will be on the working group. And theres a call for to deal with transparency in the working group Going Forward. Part of that is ensuring that Community Members are not just there to provide input but actually decisionmakers on what the outcome of the working group will be. Lastly, there is in urging that whatever documents it comes out of the working group, that the for final approval there is ample time to review before the board will hear the documents. So, they suggested two weeks. To me, these are probably the most difficult pieces, whether we go to 50 , plus one. I like that idea. I think given that the community has been a large part of the efforts to raise awareness in city hall, on Going Forward with the jail, that we honor their request. I think the requests are not unreasonable. I wanted to know, would you like to make proposed changes to the resolution, or would you want us to just go on record committing to the request . Because just to be clear, this group is a group thats hopefully going to come together, meet honoring their basis, make suggestions around policies and what we need to do here in the city for a Mental Health facility and we definitely want to make sure that they are at the table and that the appropriate parties are part of this process. It will be a positive so, im definitely open to all the suggestions you mentioned and we can either include language in the resolution to do so or we can just make that commitment i think we can make that commitment. Im okay with that. It will get a little cumbersome. I dont think its difficult to follow through on that commitment. Lastly, what they also suggested was making a transparent process about who is selected for the body. Okay. Tomatoes are good principles to go by if we can agree to that and my office will work with your office and other offices to be involved. Ali satisfied. Okay im committed to that. Thank you. I have a meeting with Barbara Garcia and Vicki Hennessy this week as well as which im hoping they will come up with the right way to develop this so that it is open and the members of the coalition who advocated for this specific change our definitely, from my perspective an important part of this. So, thank you. With that, colleagues, will call vote on item number 13. Item 13, farrell aye, kim, speak out aye mar aye, peskin, aye, tang aye, wiener, aye aye yee aye avalos aye breed aye campos got there 10 aye this resolution was adopted unanimously begot a item number 14 im putting resolution to oppose california state Ballot Initiative entitled safety for all act of 2016 which winkelmann reasonable reforms and close loopholes in californias gun and ammunition laws.

The budget analyst, as of last week, prior to the mayors Budget Office me out with information has been telling me that they were having a great deal of difficulty getting information from the budgetfrom the departments at the Mayors Office.
