Enough people active out there saying we want this. Saying no or asking why or why not . And i am suggesting you could help yourself and all of us by being much more visible, involved. Even phone calls to your district supervisor. As i will tell you if you do that enough you will find out they dont respond. I have papered the supervisors, not just the official email but the staff by name, and as you will see maybe next week again they dont respond. Theres another story i am involved in about the disabled and the supervisors do not respond. Until more of you do it they will continue in that neglectful pattern. Thank you. Thank you. Walter paulson. Good afternoon mayors disability council. I want to thank ken stein for his great work. Its too bad he is stepping down. When will we be loved . We have been pushed down.

I am bevan dufty and i am in charge of the housing opportunity, partnerships, and engagement and when i sat with mayor lee and maybe a week ago i said at 57 soon to be 58 i was too young to be the director of losing so i asked him for something more inspirational.

Remembered Mayors Office on disability and ken, where can i get one . He said you know i have an old one in my desk. You can borrow it. And i did that it made a difference in getting that guy situated and keep in mind this is one guy at a city job and had an old tty and loaned me. This was a major for profit place that wouldnt kick down the 150 to buy one. You should at least have one. I will keep i in my desk. Its things like that lead to a lot of big changes. Its a loss to me for someone like me to call and get information and the history of the struggle that people have been through and won so many ways and ken has been there on the front line scpis want to honor him and youre going to be missed ken and hes one of a kind and a Community Hero and thats all i wanted to say. Thank you very much. Thank you very much. Yes he is. Nancy cross. I am here to kind of give some idea of where i think we can make a difference in how things are implemented that come from this sector of the govern

Or not smoke and the predecessor didnt smoke or vice versa and 75 but not a single room in the citys sros for the people coming out of the shelters. Accommodate cigarette smoke and eventually so toxic themselves they go in to the environment in those places to be sick and 20 years shorten their life span. Now i think one place we can put our mind to is the capability of these matters of the Public Health department and draw attention to that to the mayor, and i would like to see everybody make their choices so that people with disabilities can come visit them in their apartments and not just for themselves, but so the accommodations have access for people with disabilities to come visit them and those people enjoy the associations. We have work to do. We have to be real smart about it, but we can do it, and i certainly value ken steins help myself, personal help in what he did to protect me. Goodbye. Thank you very much.
