Was supervisor ronen. We need to have a fair democratic process that goes along with this. This is not about identity, this is about fair process. Right now, San Francisco has seven out of ten Homeless People that once had a roof over their heads, one of the worst income inequalities in the world. The average latino family in the district making 25,000 a year, yet we have white people making 150 k a year. We can house all of these people, but we need to have a fair process, and right now theres a lot of trauma that goes on with the residents of San Francisco because they dont feel they can trust that democratic process right now. We need to appoint an incident ram mayor and get a legally binding contract with the city and county of San Francisco so that way we dont have this caretaker mayor that can actually run in the future, so thats all im saying with that. But i really urge the city and county of San Francisco to have a fair process. That way, its unbiased, with the three candidate
It was fantastic. There was a transit inspector, there was a muni service planner, there was a Security Guard and a pco, and several buses. And my wife was a bit reluctant to join, but after she saw the smiles on everybodys faces, we held a little Ribbon Cutting ceremony. So i know that the real Ribbon Cutting ceremonys going to be awesome, but we couldnt let this go without a little celebration. So had a Little Christmas ribbon leftover from one of the present. The six of us held the ribbon. My wife turned to the director the production director, and she said well, lets take this picture, lets take that picture. That evening, i posted it on facebook, and guess how small the world is . One of my inlaws husbands cousins was the director was the muni driver whos in that picture, so the guy on the the guy on the right is is a cousin of one of my relatives. Crazy. World small. So it was really fantastic. And the pride i just want to share with you, the pride of the folks that was there, it
Attended a meeting of the creditors for Lynette Sweet, who owes the city 74,000 as the result of an order that this body imposed on her for misused finance funds. It looks like we have a chance of recovering as a result of that proceeding, but we learned that a lot of other debtors are owed money including the i. R. S. , which has priority. So were not higher priority than the i. R. S. , unfortunately. So well monitor that and appear at hearings for the city. Payit plans are up to date. And on pages 5 and 6, you can see our customary charts that list the caseload statistics in graphic form. I will take any questions. Commissioners . Commissioner chiu . Yes. In your write up, the new York City Campaign finance board, the director talked about using data to investigate and uncover wrongdoing. Is that something that we could do here . I think so, yes. We track and require disclosure of a lot of the same information and we dump it into a portal called s. F. Open data, where we can put in c
Be necessary before an actionable plan is put together. And the document includes some Lessons Learned on how to collect that data in the future. Just a couple of examples of those 45 recommendations include Student Transit pass similar to what sf state passed last year. Shared parking project on the balboa reservoir for student parking as well as residents, as well as senior ride matching programs and other Services Like Escort Services to serve the neighborhoods in city college itself. And the final chapter gets to one of the communitys most clear concerns and that is the first mile access along ocean avenue. And their recommendations about improving pedestrian and Bicycle Safety on ocean avenue. And so, ultimately, this is the start of an ongoing conversation and there are many public venues to continue that conversation. Primarily at the balboa reservoir cac, which will be reviewing the reservoirs own future Transportation Plan and tdm strategy. There will be coordination necessary
