And qualified by saying, you know, most of the people are gooded people, we like to just cotify this and just put something on the ballot. And i am kind of saying that it is a moderate proposal and not convinced that this is moderate and i know as a person who runs a Small Business, every time that i have to deal with an issue, it burns up band width on my day to when i work to go to work and go home, it is not going to be light or moderate, i think that it is going to be serious. It is very hard to make it happen any other way. And i want to work with people that are, you know, i want to be part of the solution and not part of the problem, but i am kind of with my fellow commissioner dwight here, and i dont know, we like to, and we never like to throw something out and throw it back at somebody and say forget it. We never like to and we try to get everybody to come in on unumbrella and we work really hard, we are almost like a jury and we try to get everybody behind something, and we
That this very proposal has been proposed in four congress and not passed. So advocates have us to come up and step up because in San Francisco we have thought differently and we have progressive employees that know that this is important. Let me also to say to commissioner yee riley comments, i am willing to consider amendments and i would love to hear the thoughts about what they may be and let me throw out the thoughts. I understand that while predictbility and scheduling is a real issue with employees in the city and around the country, i appreciate that the provisions that we put in may not do it exactly as clearly as we would like and so i would love the feedback on that. The definition of the family, i think that commissioner dooley raise thiseds and others and needs to be tightened up. The city economist has raised a number of issues that we are happy to look at. The threshold for the size of the business that this ought to apply to. If that is something that is important to th
Those that want to collect it. And it seems like its something that we have the opportunity to perhaps take a leadership position on in recommending to sacramento. Have you all talked to recology about what their view of this whole thing is . They understand the problem. They run into the largest buybacks, one at pier 96 on the port and the one at tunnel road and they used to operate seven or eight other ones. They want to see the material handled. Its sort of there is an old garbage guy adage that you want to get your hands on everything and keep it, but they understand that their major role is providing the kind of background coverage for everything. As you were pointing out earlier, this is valuable material that picks up and moves on its own. Right. And that could mean an advantage for us in terms of that material not having to be paid for and carried by the very expensive systems. It would be a collaboration where you create a multitiered Distribution System, where it ends up ulti
So we need to step back and i think that if it was what several people said tonight and if was just as simple as an employee asking, and an employer, you know, for flex time that is it. We dont need to have this, you know, scheduling a week out, two weeks out and all that have other stuff. I do appreciate you talking with the chamber and other Small Business groups on these amendments but to me i dont think that is enough and i think that we need to just step back and relook at this and come up with another solution, so, you know, it is palatable to everyone. Commissioner rilely . I have a question for supervisor chiu . After hearing all of the comments and all of the speakers, would you consider changing the process to go through the legislative process instead of putting it on the ballot . I will think about it as i answered to commissioner dwight, i think that it is important to have a public discussion about this for the reasons that we are talking about it. And i have a lot of sev
All the recycling centers in the city. The blue ones are the existing centers and the salmoncolored ones that are ones that are recently no longer existing or planned to be existing . Okay. Commissioner dwight . To me it sounds like an innovation opportunity in a city that provides innovation and ecology and the component through some kind of notification, some mobile application for arranging the people who have the goods to those that want to collect it. And it seems like its something that we have the opportunity to perhaps take a leadership position on in recommending to sacramento.
