One of the programs i was charged with was the city i. D. Program and when that was passed in 2008 and launched in 2009, one of the benefits of the city i. D. Program was so that someone could get a government issued i. D. And use that as a primary source of identification to open an account. Unfortunately, that hasnt happened. Its something i think we need to take a look at when youre looking at a municipal bank, to fold in the city i. D. Program because its a vital to the residents of San Francisco. I want to make sure thats not overlooked. Thank you for bringing that to our attention. They can support our residents that are not comfortable given the circumstances we have right now. So, yes, thank you. Supervisor cohen supervisor fewer. Supervisor fewer so thank you, id like to introduce fred brousseau. He works closely with my office as he and the staff worked on the update to the 2011 banking report. Im going to provide a summary of our report to supervisor fewer on options of comm
Im going to provide a summary of our report to supervisor fewer on options of community banking. At the moment though, the slides are not appearing. I wonder if i might get assistance. Do you have a printed copy . I do and actually here we go. We can do it the oldfashioned way. Here we go. Thank you. My apologies for the delay. This was the report that we issued in december to supervisor fewer. It was update to 2011 report we had prepared for supervisor avalos, it covered some of the same topics, but it is different that we tried to focus on specific steps needed to be taken to establish a public bank. What weve done is provided an outline of the steps. There is obviously many more questions that would be need to be resolved to pursue that. So ill just start briefly with options for the city. There are commercial banks, thats what were using now. Theyre for Profit Institutions and theyre organized to provide a return to their private investors. Thats their primarily goal to maximize th
Sprinklers in the house. Are you reneging on behalf of your client on that commitment . I dont think that she was aware of the fact that its not required. That doesnt matter. There was a request neighbor to neighbor, will you put in sprinklers in your house, and what i was just hearing again, i cant read that far and i could request that we postpone this and we get that all printed up, but what i heard was we will put sprinklers in the house. So regardless of whether its required or not, there was an implied contract between the your client and the neighbor. Im asking you, on behalf of your neighbor, are you reneging on your clients commitment she put in writing. Im not reneging. The reason is she thought it was required. This house is gutted. Theres a lot of work going on. So with your permission, if we move forward under further conversation amongst the commissioners, you wont feel bad if we put in sprinklers given that your client said it was okay. This is a really expensive thing i
Have been the president of the league of women voters for three years. Ive been sitting on the board for eight years. When i started my work with the league excuse me basically working hand in hand with the ballot simplification sitting member, whereby i developed the pro and con guide for the league and helped distribute that english, spanish, and chinese. Ive never been to a Hearing Committee meeting because of the nature of my relationship with the pro and con guide meant that i met regularly with adele for briefing. I guess speaking to the residency waiver that im asking for, i used to be a San Francisco resident. I lived in district three, i lived in district two, and as we discussed at great length this afternoon, i had to leave the city. I couldnt afford to live here anymore. I couldnt afford to raise a family here, and yet my dedication to San Francisco continues now with sitting on the board and now acting as the president of the league of women voters, and thank you.
