cramp the discussion but people have to know where we stand a majority of this board opposed spend 300 million over and over on a design to imbritain people of color this board want to see greater investment in Mental Health treatment for those especially those living on our streets i think we have an obligation to the taxpayers we represent not simply reject state funding by try to reflect our volumes keeping those states funds free up the Capital Improvement and help to provide for more Mental Health job train and all the things that keep people out of jail and in a real home we can create a safer and humane city colleagues he hope youll take my comments and my comments and my amendments take into consideration this is was a really, really challenging issue i know for many of us but i know that is clear that many of the members of the board and many folks in the city and county of San Francisco dont want to see us waste money on a new stand alone jury trial facility it is exactly what i will not do thank you. clapping. ladies and gentlemen, i just want to brought to your attention a few housekeeping rules i hate to be the bear of bad news we prohibit the showings of support by applause as a alternative an opportunity to use your fingers if you hear something you like or disagreeable instead of that a thumbs down a powerful visual message well receive and want to remind we have a no signs in the chamber as well next person is supervisor kim followed by commissioner campos and supervisor yee and supervisor farrell supervisor kim. Thank you supervisor cowen i just the want to say im proud to be standing with supervisor breed that is an incredible difficult issue and i cant say i know of very many jurisdictions that talk about turning down 8 million to rebuild a job that is a courageous step we dont want the easy answer not the easy solution it is easy to sweep those that have the at least off the streets their homeless and because theyre sick because they if graduate from high school or addicted to drugs jail is the easy answer this board want to say address that issue and make that a healthy hvkt and stronger system we have the only county in the state of california that has built a jail since 2000 this is of concern for two reasons one nationally and in the state of california elected officials democrats and republicans and daze are stopping the massive categorization 25 years later were learning those policies are incredible expensive and burdensome but not achieving other goals weed hope for and San Francisco a vietnam veteran with post traffic was charged with arson of fire for a Rome Exchange he spent three hundred days in jail before the jury found him not guilty of arson he got the xnl as a form of theefrp for his post Traumatic Stress his jail cost us four to five thousand a day and the Mental Health for a year would have cost on 20,000 plus and h at 56 a day a father of a 6 yearold reduced to plead guilty and jailed for 3 months 3we6789 he was and i quilted he lost custody of his daughter and car and cost 13 thousand in public funds we know that nearly threequarters of women in state prison suffer or suffer from drugs on the local advocacy world talk about how jails with a refugee because we have a progressive Sheriffs Department and aggressive District Attorney and Public Defenders Office, in fact, when i worked added lawyer of community for civil rights we talked about how it was finally in jail people can assess shelter and bed and 3 meals a day and health care and Rehab Services and access to the ged programs and more a form inmate told me he saw the prison swell people attempted to create a crime to get a temporary sentence to get regional refuge from the cold one person in 4 spent time in jail and Mental Health issues and so we have to ask users cant there is another way to assess those serves not in jail jails are expensive to build we end up pagan for new jails for decades the city will be building proechd to build a facility for through issuing koupgsz that costs the citizens of San Francisco over 3 homicide Million Dollars in construction alone San Francisco voters have not yielded approved the construction of jails Construction Costs are 10 percent of total cost of a jail over a lifetime according to the association we know that were extremity been talking about reducing jail beds but i think at the time the state granted application we didnt have in the alternatives nofrd to make a fair decision today i think there is so much we can do in San Francisco two factors that determine the jail population the number of people booked into jail and the length of their stay the average length between booking and release has fallen by 13 percent since. off the record. were implementing many of the practices that left to right itself and states across the country are finally calling for over the last 5 years our average jail population declined by 8 percent a faster rate in the previous years in 2014 has been the lowest since 1982 corresponding to the Controllers Office report 2014 was the lowest and based on the impact of proposition 47 the strategy use of the methods of incarceration like electronic monitoring and the continuing advances by the supervision practices the decrease in the number of beds is not a surety if San Francisco a filing 50 percent of the jail beds today why do we need another jail were leadership in San Francisco that is reducing our jail population by half yet our city is incurring the is only capital opposite instead of closing we need to close the jail at 850 bryant not safe for the inmates and not for the men and women that serve in our Sheriffs Department to be working there as well we definitely need to close that facility and actually, i think we can do that now and as we continue incur what a new criminal Justice System and reimagine our criminal Justice System there are important questions first who are we holding in our jails who percentage are heels and surviving u suffering from mlk and how many in jail they cant afford bail if we discover that thirtyers of our jail population are homeless lets build a different shelter like permanent Affordable Housing if we know that a percentage is impacted by mlk lets build a medical industry or center where it is possess appropriate to address what we see in the city in fact i get overwhelms we invest their taxpayers into mlk services there is an assumption they exist for the dangerous criminals this assumptions is supported by data and information about the population but this is what we know we know the negative impacts of yale human beings a short stay if jail can untie the lives of those who are did not on we know individuals that have been evicted because there were not available to make the impact income to pay rent of later their cases are dropped parents losses custody of their children and one case leading to a death of a common cold in chesterfield when the defendant was not affording the bail and his babies not if this how to take care of him the u. S. Leads the world in pretrial and an estimate half a Million People are in the jails on any given day cant make bail we there is still a lot more work to do we know that those calls of action are happening throughout the country i hope we are a model for how to make our communities safer i want to recognize supervisor breed for doing a tremendous amount of work and thank you to you and your staff and i have i didnt has been working on this issue over a year and the tremendous advocates percentage provides the issues ive that idle but most importantly recognize laura thrombins and others that provided a ton of policy support we really rethink what it means to build a better city here in San Francisco im proud of today. Thank you, supervisor kim. Commissioner campos. Thank you, madam chair i like to ask the members of the public to say a no to a new jail to stand if youre able . Thank you, thank you. I ask that was i think that the fact that most people in this room are standing tells us where San Francisco really is on this issue and i think that a clear message couldnt have been sent thank you very much you may sit if you like but i want to ask that because i want that i am going to stick with us as we move forward you you know time after time a number of us question whether or not a new jail is needed and staff to consider the option we held a meeting that supervisor kim chaired we asked about the alternatives and no alternatives that was seriously considered so from the request from the board to consider alternative of alternatives was not headed maybe the fact that most people in the room standing against the new jail about get through to our staff theyll consider going into a different direction and to the folks that are here he wanted to know there is a lot of procedural questions and maneuver that is happening the key question what were doing on item 40 40 specifically allows the sheriff it authorizes the Sheriffs Department to accept and expend 80 million for the purpose of rehabilitating and building a detention facility by tabling that item today along the lines of what supervisor president london breed and supervisor kim hsa have outlined were sending a clear message that any effort to build a new jail in San Francisco will not be moving forward out that this body and whether it hemispheres today or down in a month or year i dont see it board of supervisors in any way approving anything that allows with the expenditure of money to build would a new jail in the sfoivenlths is it is not what San Francisco wants that simple with that, i also want to leave us with this it is not enough that we do this today we need to not only rededicate ourselves thirty to this effort what roma and other have been fooiktd forgive coming up with alternatives but focus on sacramento parts of the problem is the misguided misappropriated priorities of santa monica the only thing that sacramento gives jurisdiction for San Francisco is for jails and by saying no, thank you governor jerry brown only thank you but, yes we need money for other things we need money for housing, we need money for education, we need money inform 40 for so many things our families in San Francisco are struggling to stay here and so not enough to shoot this down we need a to recommit ourselves to going to sacramento so the money is given to citys like San Francisco so address the niece of people of this city i hope that happens we know by voting to table not only am i voting to say no to a new jail but, yes to invest in the future of of our families thank you. clapping. thank you commissioner campos next will be supervisor yee. Thank you very much this has been a difficult discussion and i think was last week, we had the hearing that was shedding a lot of light and on any thinking and its been difficult discussion because it is like how do we turn a negative discussion into a positive how do we sit down and figure out what we really can do for people that are in situations where they might be incarcerated i think i want to say i appreciate supervisor breed and supervisor kim and everyone that is working on this to look at it how to have a positive discussion and the amendments that youve asks for and to start that dialogue with the working group is really the way to look at this as a positive discussion i think we should have this im glad you brought this up and to get us in that direction and by having this working group and investigating some time to have a discussion people get together but provides an opportunity for our system to try out theyre new itself program to use the National Assessment to actually reduce the number of people that are incarcerated into put them into alternative programs yeah you know 80 million really is we should be keep the 80 million and put it if preschool i mean it if you want to talk about prevention we know that works and dont know why the state didnt support that i want to support the amendments that are going to be made and so forth i have one question and which i hope someone can answer he want 80 us to go ahead and try to purchase that property but why are we using certificate of participation but it will cost us several millions in terms of interest or whatever it is why cant say we find 15 million in the budget and pay for it we dont losses Million Dollars this is a question i want to know i want to pose it. Supervisors ben controllers certainly large items we do like many governments that finance but cash could be used for is that cash will come from the general fund likely but an option indians this is going back to the committee and part of ad hoc committee. I want to stressed if we could find funding in the general funds to pay for this this means we will have several Million Dollars that could go into services. Is that it supervisor yee. Next supervisor farrell. Thank you, madam chair i want to extend supervisor president breed it is a tough issue and the person choice is relevant and jermaine and coming from the right place im in full support and the other week if committee he simply want to say i hope we march down this road in a consecutive manner you know if we close the current hall of justice we know and were extremity talked about in deplorable position for the prisoners and the deputy sheriffs well be in an overcrowding situation and as much of a supporter and hope the built as the board at the state level to plug more into those efforts and certainly commend the efforaround Mental Health b more than anything thank you to supervisor breed for her efforts here. Supervisor mar. Thank you. I want to first acknowledge deputy chief friedman in the back deputy chief and other for really show me the treble conditions within the hall of justice and bryan strong important i think trying to do his best with the difficult situation im sorry to be on the side of the thirty nonprofit and social justice organizations and did many members in the audience that are have been a growing coalition against the building of the new jail i want to say and commissioner campos asked people to stand this is not the first time were extremity seen the multi Racial Justice youve been here for Budget Committee mergers that supervisor katie tang and supervisor farrell eye and i and the gao and your strengths is growing he want to say as black lives matter and critical resistance it is a Racial Justice issue and c. J. Has hieltdz the number the Burns Institute to that 49 percent of jail is filled with africanamericans and a huge percentage of latinos and chicanos and other of color as well 7. 3 times the arresting rates for africanamericans then the general population and growing the Industrial Complex as the folks have said needs to be stopped would be principles and building up racial multiply so it is not about the board of supervisors but the movements out there that are challenging the growing collection i wanted to say im here in solidarity with this coalition and young people for the young impedes e womens investments have been out more and more and give proposes to the young people not investing in the jails i also wanted to acknowledge that San Francisco as other have said california do much better in investing in alternatives and people and Mental Illness extort systems and up to 40 percent of our in custody as the healthy rofrtd in the budget conceptually committee are people that suffer from Mental Illness they need treat im glad our department of mlk is looking that road but supervisor president breed and supervisor jane kim one way or another were extremity shift not building new jails i wanted to say we dont need to continue to criminal ccii criminal lists the powerful over ero often the coalition of homeless that stood up we need to continue to decrime scene the efforts and not Mental Illness but giving people real opts without a doubt a just jails a more beds in the system we have now, one thousand plus inmates that is three hundred and 50 in the hall of justice and marks the 33 year low for our system down from the 2 thousand three hundred inmates in the mid 90s i think that was about 10 years ago that new jail emerged that population was at that level but because the coalition and other gradual and rapid decreases in the population i believe with bail reform as the gao and the Mental Health services were moving forward towards the communitybased alternatives so i stands with the coalition and am proud of board for taking this bold and strong action along with the coalition. Thank you supervisor mar and supervisor peskin. Schoolz. Thank you supervisor avalos all.

Thank you supervisor president london breed first of all, i want to thank my cosponsors for this measures which i admit is controversial sxhoepd commissioner campos, supervisor kim supervisor mar and supervisor wiener thank you for your cosponsorship and also thing jeremy my legislative aide to for working on this a big cyclist cyclist in the city that is very, very person im a lifelong cyclist since the age of 10 learned at 7 yearold and got any real bike at 10 years old im mostly beacon to commute im multiply mobile not on the bike as much the one thing that biking gave me a sense of this city a have a tap graph map of San Francisco i know where all the hills and how to avoid them and whoonz i want to tackle and know what the practice of crystal ive been krooif under the xhoifr from city hall for 10 years it is a 5 million commute i circled circled circled i used a guitar to protect myself if cars recycling can be a dangerous opportunity but it makes it a low low save and part of raurns or awareness to make sure were looking at out for people and cars and pedestrians and other vehicles that use youre streets and it is something that legislation is really about and im one of one person there are thousands of people that have the experience ever what the o. J. What it is like in the city how to protect themselves and other people and make sure their looking at for pedestrians and a roof cyclists is dont circle and put peoples lives at fear theyre not the main body of cyclists but the minority and we dont have like a pr add that promotes cycling in the is i e country that leads to a lot of miss exemptions about cycling in to we see everywhere in San Francisco were extremity seen the rapid increase of people riding bikes and led to a conflict of bicyclists and drivers new consensus the commuters that are riding doubled between 2006 we can minimize if we yield youre streets work best when we treat other like we want to be treated like cyclists and autopsies automobile were wondering what cyclists and automobiles will be doing the california vehicle code requires the bikes to follow the rules as cars but bikes are different it generates one hundred was the of power like hours power cars a uc berkley physics professor found a cyclist is rolls through a stop use 25 percentlessly energy than the cyclists excuse me. That fully stops weve leaders that traffic flows better when we give bicyclists considerations like bike lanes and as parts of vision zero the San Francisco Police Department focus on the 5 the dangerous most dangerous traffic violations there is running red lights and stop signs violating pedestrian rightofway, exempting turning violations and speeding, however, District Enforcement is current productive for several reasons it takes away scarce enforcements and counter inner tuff to how people navigate the intersections and discourages people from bicycling common sense enforcement of law makes you are streets more predictable ive heard a lot about this ordinance people building that it gives special accommodations to bike riders this is not true it is about setting the priorities for the San Francisco Police Department that reflect our policies and conforming those policies with the practices of kind of like in San Francisco the San Francisco Police Department claims the enforcement of bicyclist violations is a low priority but were extremity seen data that contradicts they dictated office hours i repeat one hundred and 14 officer hours on 5 and 6th street for ticketing people on the wilting that is for most dangerous intersections theyre not on the wiggle there are no records of enforcements at Market Street and octavia the citys most dangerous system that is based on the injuries as reported boy this department of Public Health this two day crack counsel 2 had had and 4 citations with the vast majority going to bicyclists the San Francisco Police Department cites bicyclists through stop signs on october 1, 12 San Francisco Police Department cruiser we are seen stacking occult the intrfshgs waller and steiner and ticketing bicyclists between manipulated that was recorded to me directly and reports of talk the walk bicyclists on the wiggle the chronicle recorded a young woman for rolling to a stop sign at less than 5 Miles Per Hour she said the stop took 15 minutes for the ticketing to be made you having could focus on much more dangerous activities on a street the ticketing for biking is 2 this defendant dollars within is making the project rent to get more clarity im submitting a letter of inquiry to the Police Department for the number of citation for bicycle riders to phil to yield this didnt condone the biologists who dont slow down to 6 Miles Per Hour arrest 6 feet to pedestrians this ordinance will not discourage the Police Department from talk the walk unsafe behavior we cant allow the sfpd to prioritize ticking of behaviors by bicyclists instead of focusing on the citys dangerous intersection jeering first of all, it requires cyclists so yearold and that yielding can mean stopping and making sure the pedestrians have the rightofway it also says if bikes are not to a complete stop but negotiating the inspectors at 6 mileperhour and i think outside the box as i said it also specified the distance the exists must have between themselves and pedestrians at any rate of feet this ordinance also has a language that encourages cant require the mta but can you remember the mta to have an Education Campaign educating the cyclists and how the education works this thing past year 400,500,000 for the Vision Zero Program and we also have money that is available from the Transportation Authority to pay for added education efforts around cyclist in the city in many legislation will urge the mta to carry out this education colleagues this is common sense legislation and for a city that is working to get people out of their cars and to use less of a cartoonish i am brilliant that incentives our climate goals and bicyclists help to meet our overhead needs i encourage our support. Thank you supervisor avalos supervisor cowen. Over a year ago we as a city commit to the vision zero policy which is a policy that is committed that commits our city to 2020 and facilities by the year of 2024 a good policy i stand behind and a dozens of high injury kortsdz we distinct to see and make improvements to as part of vision zero commitment approximately 7 thousand intersection in San Francisco and i think we have a collective responsibility to make sure theyre safe to the best of of our built to everyone that enters into the intersections whether residents or not are safe, i think we need to been holistically about cyclists and pedestrians and people that are disabled whether their sight impaired or in a wheelchair theyll be using overseeing corridors an if this ordinance passes it will porsche put in nourment were extremity heard testimony from the Disability Advocates advocating their concerns around that policy id like to the also take a moment to recognize that just yesterday a bicyclists was tragically killed on the southeast part of the city in the neighborhood we dont know all the details an investigation is under a way those are the kinds of incidents and situations that im really concerned about i have a real concern that ordinance will confuse the issue and future create a miss understanding between drivers and pedestrians and have a few concerns when it comes down to improvement particularly with the novrn English Speaking community not only enforcement if in the monthly lingual community but enforcement ive yet to see that happen to the question i received from passionate go san franciscans phone calls and overwhelms on both sides of the issues raised real concerns that are boycott e legitimate im e im not trying to demolish those from the Cycling Community but 90 but the passage of that will come to a harvard challenge for those seniors and not able to support this legislation as it is today thank you. Thank you. I see a long list on the roster at t park we talkative today supervisor farrell. Thank you, supervisor breed first thank you to supervisor avalos and supervisor breed and supervisor wiener that put that worked on this measure as well as the other cosponsors i understand this policy was long in the making and a direct response to some of the acts link the wiggle and take the opportunity to supervisor president london breed i understand where she is coming from having said that, die building that changing the rules of road a appropriate response for me first of all, youre students her in San Francisco are more commend until we have serious suggestions about a subway city that supervisor wiener started to talk about it is on this boo going to get worse and worse and people move to San Francisco we doing doing everything we can to promote our transit first policies but recognize the status of roads and any up to this point in time as someone that group i grew up riding muni pea my bike by myself through the streets of San Francisco before i was a teenager and when i turned 16 and started to throw a car into the mix still drive a car and ride a bike with my kids and walk as much as possible our roads are the crazy itself due to more people or construction it is what is haven everyday in San Francisco i see drivers driving for aggressive than ever before and bicyclists blowing through stop signs and rltsz every single day to work and pedestrians walk with their heads down with their iphones from my perspectives everything here everybody that every mode of transportation is added fault in many ways and everyone in San Francisco needs to take ownership we need to take accountant for all residents we rightfully contempt a ton of resources to vision zero i support and a number of unfortunate accident on the other hand, these in district 2 i dont see how this legislation furthers that goal people talked about this legislation in the context off pedestrians versus bicyclists frankly pitting that against each other drives me this is from my prospective Everyone Needs to be more vigilantes on the streets that means everyone bicyclists and pedestrians and car drivers and changing the rules of roads in San Francisco to allow one mode of transportation to have a legally different set of rules on the roads doesnt make sense and a lot has been made about this works else were i understand major cities no europe we talk about idaho and to states the obvious were a different setting idaho, i do as i looked it up earlier today has about 20 people per skwierp we have over 17 thousand people per square mile it is simply different we need to acknowledge the reality and lastly there is comments about well, that is a small resolution you know it cant say be implemented that is against state law it didnt really does much except contradict San Francisco Police Department is dont say more than that it sends a preliminary hearing to everyone in San Francisco that one mode of transportation in the city has a different set of rules than anyone else im a huge property of more bike lanes we did it on my street with my kids and my wife and i will and in district 2 and making that more attractive for bicyclists to be in San Francisco we need to increase liability and attractiveness for transit first but changing the rules of the road for not only bicyclists but other people that use the road to me is the wrong medications i appreciate the intent of the resolution i understand where supervisor president london breed is coming from i do believe a ton of Public Safety issues that dictates sfpd is looking at crime with that said, i doolittle doable this make sense ill not are supporting that. Thank you supervisor farrell supervisor yee. Thank you supervisor president london breed i want to say i think the understand the intent that supervisor avalos is trying to bring to the table and after all he was like supervisor jane kim and myself coauthorize of dissolutions which rules do we follow im thinking whether im a pedestrian or something that is biking or a driver what we dont want to do is create more situations where were secondguessing where a biker ever or are anyone else will be doing some anticipation, of course, careful makes sure regardless if youre walking or biking are driving a vehicle but theres sometimes assume if there is a stop sign theyre going to stop and if were really dont know what someone about do is scarey id to be on the save side we have rules lets follow it you know what i mean, ill be doing it will be safer so ill not be supporting the legislation today. Thank you schoe supervisor wiener. Okay. Im going to support supervisor avalos a few option comments in a row i support that this legislation and happy to sign on early as a coauthor i think a lot of expressions of both support and option but in terms of the opposition i received almost every single communication ive received in opposition emails or otherwise talks about cyclists that run red lights or blow through stop signs or violate a rightofway and almost hit a pedestrian i almost were 11 for 11 wanting the cyclists to get ticketed their reckless behavior but not what this legislation is about this legislation i wont repeat with supervisor avalos said doesnt in any way exonerate people that are engaging in reckless behavior people traiflg of miller or less critically slow speeds and people that accusationly enter an intersection only if no one else is interest not violating anyone elses rightofway were not talking about someone that blows through stop signs this didnt apply to someone who is doing that not talking about running a red light this legislation didnt apply were not talking about a krieflts speeding or riding on sidewalks i know we have a boarder discussion around the way that people act on the road cyclists and muni drivers and ridership drivers a intentional discussion how we should be sgrak with people in the city this is legislation is about a specific type of cycling not creating danger for anyone and this legislation is about making sure that people can actually bike in the city i agree completely with supervisor farrell were getting be a more and more crossout city we see is it on the streets every single day with the congestion of every mode of transportation and only going to get more congested as youre population is growing by other one and 50 thousand people by the quarters of a century but do the best we can to make that as easy as possible for people to assess forms of transportation other than driving their own car investing in the Transportation System and vice chair a great car sharing and making that as easy as possible for people to ride bikes having a bike system that reflects the reality how people ride bikes the fact is a stop sign at every intersection on streets little or no traffic little risk of anything happening with the bikes entering the intersection slowly and cautiously some people will not stop at every single intersection Port Commission in every city ive ever seen and fancy for us to think theyre going to do so so cyclists continue to get tickets someone in any districts sent me a citation under 57 mileperhour but got a ticket i dont think that is how we should be using our Law Enforcement resources people that are are being hit and dying on the streets we have far better used for our a scarce Law Enforcement so ill be supporting this legislation. Thank you, supervisor wiener. Supervisor tang. Thank you very much i know that there been comments and concerns about safety in relation ill not repeat those one of the top concerns is again how we are telling me the Police Department that something should be the lowest enforcement priority for them thats where i fundamental have the issue what will stop us in the future Police Department well tell you what youre priorities that should be worked or worked out with community members, in fact, when i go to the Police Captain their priorities change they want the police to focus on something and next month Something Else i hear about cyclists not riding safely and its okay. As along their caution i i dont like the Police Enforcement that one, the fundamental concerns the other thing is that as we know that state law governs the rules of road i appreciate were trying to adopt a San Francisco rightofway policy that is a policy so i wanted to make sure that whether youre a residents or a visitor coming from out of state i understand what 9 rules of road are owe not something that san franciscans know about the yielding and be a personal level i dont have a problem that accident yielding again, if youre. Broadcast bicyclists and experiencing caution and not coming to a complete stop i dont believe that that police should be spending their time endorsing those kinds of situations but that legislation came being because of some i think ousted arraigns behavior from one Police Captain and not adapt this because of one type of behalf we work better with the practical captain to make sure we addresses our values and the safety priorities what we could do a better job and should do more work in terms of enforcements on distracked driving and distransacted bike and those all those things making sure we are paying attention so i want to dots best to support the biking communities theyve done Amazing Things to take the cars oath the road and like supervisor farrell i grew up bike before it was cool in San Francisco so and he also when i was in college had on this a bike and if youre talking about e grerg behavior the police were hiding behind bushes on campus ticketing students we need to be careful no matter what we are doing id like us to focus on some other things to make the roads safer for everyone no matter of mode of tracking transportation but not address the police activities. Supervisor mar. Let me be succinct so many has been building inside on this issue for me ill say im appreciative that supervisor avalos has brought that forward and i think best of my knowledge lash or the scope getting of bicyclists for the problems cause a culture speeding and cars is really the issue before us i think when there is an anti bicycle bias between the Police Department cult not just one or two Police Officers that is much broader than that if the Safety Committee to others issues were extremity dolt day and night with that is ridiculous to say that the counter to vision zero vision zero and the focus on 5 to identify in a dedicated approach the danger is and again, the high injury corridors with the cars bicyclists unsafe bicycling is an issue about the cultural of cars and killing of people on discredits is night and day a lot of dialogue but want to binge that back supervisor avalos action a 10yearold he was riding i had a green stingray two speedy learned how to ride safely and good efforts that he the Bicycle Coalition and other lead so were trying to reach 20 percent by 2020 of bicyclists i think that kind of push back really important type of policy is counter to our policy as supervisor avalos mentioned to a healthier city reducing the Carbon Footprint and want to say i think the bias of the ticketing of bicyclists on the widen and other places is something that helps to address by sclaifr what the policies are when we all rode on the bike to work day many of us probable be cautiously slowed and blow through some stop signs ill be speed up we know that happens often ill say whether it is idaho, colorado or other citys it is the right thing to do for San Francisco and we should be pufsh back on the ticketing of 200 for bicyclists that are not endaring anyone our times of the boards politics my colleagues join supervisor avalos and the other cosponsors and anti bicyclists bias within the Police Department and the cultural and to stop scapegoating bicyclists for riding safely and trying to make the city a better place as well thats my 0. 02. Thank you supervisor mar. Supervisor kim. I want to recognize supervisor avalos and his office and leadership for bringing this policy before us this is something were extremity talked about for quite a number ever years in our confusion how we can make that a safer city for all the mode shares but how we can reduce the congestion on the streets if you, we want to get anymore individuals out of their cars out of the crowded muni and the congested streets into theyre bikes this was on the ordinances that will help to insure that if youre a muni bus and the streets is two crossout it is for you about save behavior we dont tolerant batting bad behave this ordinances are help to move the bicyclists through the intersection and across the street bikers know they dont want to tackle with cars their lose the fight with the vehicle that is thousands of pounds so cyclists is simply not going to engage in danger behavior they cant say endanger the pedestrians when we talk about a better transportation city, of course, we need to talk about anymore muni service and increase the Muni Services we need to talk about shivering that bicyclists feel safe and create a sets of laws that are going to encourage people to bike and do so safely hesitate what this ordinance is and many of the points are made why we should support im happy to be a cosponsors with supervisor avalos as a beginning cyclists on the streets i see how this encourages me to bike more if there are not cars and not pedestrians on the street a slow role through can help to insure that i can safely there are no goat get through the city this is a good policy moving forward i think this can work in San Francisco as well. Thank you, supervisor kim. Supervisor avalos i dont want to repeat but jeer this legislation is not so much but changing rules i dont think that is about changing rules but really about how we can have make people that yield at stop signs the lowest priority for Law Enforcement it is really about making sure were putting our resources where they really need to go cyclists who are approaching stop signs at slow speeds looking at for pedestrians are not causing harm and to stand the appreciate resources and such behavior an intersections that are actually not critical intersections to the vision zero efforts is making enforcement recycle were doing the enforcement but Police Department to have discretion and when we legislate one of the lowest detroits priorities we give the Police Department discretion we need that kind of enforcement if we look at market octavia intersection National Getting any kind of enforcement and we believe because of bias against cyclists then were not doing we we need to do with the Vision Zero Program far people that run stop signs and violate the pedestrian rightofway and competing complete turning violations and speeding but actually allowing the cyclists do come to a yield at stop signs were not endorsing stop signs but enforcing studying speeding a cyclist is blogging through the intersection the police can go after them theyve violated speeding and avoid and stop sign by blogging introduce it in a dangers way to just to be clear we want our Police Department to do effective enforcement not to waste their times think 15 minute 200 fixture or intelligent for people not causing danger on our streets colleagues, i have a number ever small amendments i dont believe i have two of i passed out a sheet of paper the first ill read into the record is on page 3 lines three and four it is vision zero language clean up the 70 sfldz or San Francisco Police Department is focused on the behaviors most likely to result in someone seriously injured some seriously injured the next one on page 5 line 3 adding the words always that bicyclists yield in accordance with the ordinance the words always is new an page 7 line 7 fixing a typo a small change 2015 to be 2016 and page 5 lines 11 to telephone were adding the words maintain a distance of 6 feet from any pedestrians were actually setting the distance with an pedestrian and id like to have a motion to accept those amendments and last week to motion that we duplicate the file that is amended the amended files and send that back to committee but like to or have a vote for the second reading for the january when we have a meeting just to be clear the duplicated file to amend that.

Thank you very much madam president and madam clerk colleagues, i have first, the resolution expressing the board of supervisors supports for the safety for all initiative which is proposed for that the 2016 statewide ballot by 11th hour gavin newsom were extremity as a city been leaders in insuring that has some of the strongest gun regulations so ill let supervisor farrell and i did work and commissioner campos youve been supportive of this legislation locally were extremity band the position of any magazines we have required local gun dealers to better interact and recorded to the Law Enforcement officials and required report on ammunition and the record of gun always sales and lethal types of ammunition and prohibit minors from entering fire rages without a parents but the progressive stance we still is limits on what we do to regulate the ammunition and gun sales to imperative to have state and other legislation to have strict regulations this promoted inch will be among this among other things require the point of sale background schekz and remove the ability for a third Party Possession and anti allowing law the magazines stating and out of state purchase of ammunition only delivered to licensed purposes San Francisco and california and as well as the country a severe Public Safety issues when it comes to gun today in the city 49 homicides that involve guns we need to support this one that builds upon the strong stance we had here in San Francisco so the rest the state may follow the second item the result of an issue that has u religion as the president rear deck our final dimension is outdated and didnt accurately fit several of our current members particularly this old definition explicit include or be able members of the judge retirement to include the years of compensation under the Current System this is simple and clean update the older definitions to make sure that the judge are contemplated for that in their years of service keep in mind the judges are unusual folks that have spent time as public defenders so the third yes, maam is a hearing request on the status of oversized vehicle restriction back under go 2013 i worked with sfmta and supervisor chiu to you launch a program to launch the issue of the parking of oversized vehicles that is many part of city but keying into potrero hill and dog patch neighborhood their proves to be successful and since then my constituents have requested it be expanded into neighborhood that many have seen unsafe oversight sized vehicle practices a recent exploration of an oversized vehicle in the District Center if ten my understanding sfmta has put a holds on the restriction raerlg due to a desire do study the issue so im going to request this hearing id like a better understanding the current status of parking Restriction Program and the citys effort if addressing the parking of oversized vehicles the rest i submit thank you supervisor farrell and colleagues one ordinance today when the voters a number of years ago passed the city cash to provide benefits to keep people stabilized in our city if it was one the go biggest initiatives for homelessness and people founds housing assaults, however, in work with the Housing Providers and hsa a potentially minor 200 flaw i believe that would prudence to amend important individuals being evicted that cause our decide for resources and continued to, housed currently an, an individual was in undermines hsa notified that individual before the benefit can be discontinued we were able to get that individual on the cash for stabilization but the third compliance have no source of income to pay rents and have their housing security threatened San Francisco of them face eviction so today, im introducing a common sense or more to our cutters cash housing that concretes a 3 year for the cash partners and codifies a sanction for the carrying on cash to help people secure in their housing and lower the risk of eviction the intent to significantly reduce the risk those those holmes individuals got on the streets this is that Year Pilot Program for people that are are casing for cash that decide in supports of housing and combaenldz in 3 acts of inflicts Internal Revenue their ineligible to receive any wednesday but this Pilot Program makes the up to that time directing to the housing provide hsa collects the numbers of individual that receives assistants and will submit an annual report to the board of supervisors describing the implementation effectiveness and room for improvement individuals wont be able to qualify under the program if the discontinues is due to fraud with the Program Requirements and ultimately homelessness is a huge problem in the city we continue to be at the top of list for everybody it is the rights solution and the most cost and humane solution and the idea of this proposal and Pilot Program to keep the formally homelessness houses and off the streets to continue to have better lives and not cycle through the resolve doors of homelessness it continues to have our people housed i want to thank a number of individuals and organizations like

The rank choice 15 candidates in 2011 it is very, very difficult for residents to discern the candidates for anywhere that year indicating having the runoff establishes the Voter Engagement and understanding what is at stake for the city when they see the election that a runoff provides the other parts of Charter Amendment is actually reestablishing the elections to fill the vacancies on the board of supervisors and the mrairs this Mayors Office lets elect our elected officials this process is something that actually limited our tilt to be strong and effective legislators we dont have the definition that elections provide were not accountable to the voter we limit our ability to legislate effectively this how to have a strong effort of having our bold independent and checks and balances between the Mayors Office and the Election Branch is rather than having a charts mainstreamed that the mayor is a voting plea bargain of the board of supervisors we operate the board of supervisors from the Mayors Office last year, we saw a very water shed momentums for San Francisco in the election for the district 3rd race it come down to the voters wanted to see independence and practice i welcome supervisor peskin as a result but how the city was so challenges by the politics and the mayor spent so much times not only caption k constraining for his election it shows that should go something is amiss we need to be loyal to our voters so that is what democracy is about this is a Charter Amendment and draft Charter Amendment that fully as i understand by the City Attorney by but i want to process well take a part in crafting it operation of powers that is vitality important the rest i submit.
