When looking at fiscal years 20, 21 and 2122, its important to note the significant reduction in state revenue state reassignment, ab109 dollars and while they continue to remain fairly stable, ab109 allocation have been significantly reduced. We are projecting an increase in Grant Funding from the star, which grant through department of publichealth, which is the supporting treatment and reducing recidivism grant, and two additional grants that adult probation has applied for to assist in expanding housing opportunities and treatment for justice involved people with Mental Health and co occurring disorders.

Work on a more normal basis, well continue to try to meet remotely so that we can play our part in slowing the spread of covid19. I want to also announce a couple of reminders to the conduct of this hearing. Members should keep their video feed on as long as they are present in the hearing, and members are responsible for their own microphones. Just be mindful that you probably have a little bit more responsibility than usual than if we were in a regular meeting space. And please keep your microphones muted unless youre speaking and finally if members have documents they wish to submit to the record, email them to the committee clerk. But if you dont have it, we can make sure you do get it. I welcome you to the science, space and Technology Committees First Virtual hearing. Today were discussing the impact of covid19 on the Fire Service Community and how we can best leverage existing federal programs to expedite assistance to Fire Departments during the pandemic.

Shame and more than that harmful to lose that open space. Its understanding open green space and hard scaped. It has an impact again on how people con agre con gra gate ane space and the heat related increases as people are more and more concerned about global warming. And water run off.

The site would have caused modifications in the design. In addition, flexible retail was never discussed nor was it mentioned in the Environmental Impact report so neighbors had no ability to consider it and respond. The e.
Landmark. Laurel hill gardens cemetery. As well as the cemetery, for San Francisco pioneers u. S. Senators and civil war heroes, its a treefilled park for San Francisco residents. Since i noticed the Historic Cemetery plaque missing from the red brick wall a few years ago, i wondered why would anyone want to erase this history. It made me sad. Well, as a result, it seems that the job of marking and memorializing this important San Francisco landmark has been left to its survivors, the trees. Some of these large, old growth trees are monument to this lost history. In addition to the history, many studies have reported that the loss of large, old trees leads to an over all loss of urban biodiversity. They are critical ecological structures because relative to their size, they are disproportionate providers of resources crucial to wildlife. Its times of Necessary Development and help preserve the landmarks that define your cities rich history. Concern neighborhoods are not anti developmen
So, this was another new aspect. The e. I. R. Response to comments states the project will comply with the provision to the planning code as to Affordable Housing but thats inaccurate because the Development Agreement would wave those and have no moderate Income Housing and have its own plan. The e. I. R. Failed to analyze the projects potentially Significant Impact on shadows on publicly accessible open space. This is the Developers Site plan and shadows are shown in blue. This shows frequent shadows on the lower walnut walk and the square which the developer proposes to use as Community Benefits and open space. These proposed areas would be shaded mostly by the proposed buildings for much of the day or year. The city procedures provide that shadows must be studied if the use of open space could be adversely effected. And it doesnt matter whether the open use controls. The city failed to conduct a cityrun planning process. And the developer described his proposed project to the commun
