And im on the water committee. I am greatly concerned about this issue, as being knowledgeable of the results of earthquakes in 1906 and 1989 in San Francisco. This is the most pressing problem that we face, as a city. I would wholly endorse the comments that have already been made, but let me add that time is of the essence. You know, i look at this project and think that this is relatively small, compared to the water rebuild system that the p. U. C. Has pretty much completed at this point. That happened in roughly 17 years, at max. You know, the United States sent a man to the moon in ten years, upon the leadership of jack kennedy. Building this system doesnt cost that much. And it needs to be done. Politics needs to take a backseat to the technical needs of getting a comprehensive Fire Suppression system that uses nonpotable water from answer infinite source. Thats what the grand jury has essentially argued for. Bell dings and so thats why i urge you to support this Going Forward i
Grand jury report. And of their findings. And their recommendations. What motivates me to come here today, yesterday morning, despite the best efforts of the station 15, two members of our community lost their lives in a fire on dellano avenue. Woodframe building, built in 1915, like so many woodframe buildings on the west side and southern sides of town, where theres a greater concentration of families and children. At present, we dont have a system that can handle the big one in those areas. I feel strongly that the city departments and the financing people need to focus on solving this question seriously. I thank the grand jury for their recommendations, for their effort and i thank mr. Dute and nancy werfell for having led so many people and explain this to them. Thank you. Mar thank you. Next speaker, please. Good morning. My name is ellen lee chow. Im a resident in San Francisco for the last 33 year. I am a Public Employee. Around the former civic grand jury for two terms, 2014 a

I would challenge both departments assertions about the tenyear capital plan. Between november 2018 and january 2019 major reinvestigations to the tenyear capital plan, based on directives from the mayor. Deputy chief San Francisco Fire Department retired. The civil grand jury has provided the City Government with an invaluable document, which if endorsed by the board of supervisors, will direct our various city agencies to expand the water supply system of High Pressure hydrants in a manner to protect the 15 neighborhoods, woodframe structures and 390,000 residents, who despite having paid the same tax rate as the rest of the city for years, have never had the same level of protection that their fellow citizens in the older neighborhoods have had. The two overriding messages that the civil grand jury has given us are, one, in order to avoid repeating the massive destruction by firestorms, that San Francisco suffered in 19 to 6, the awss must be expanded into every city neighborhood.

He says he is a space cowboy. Very good. We have new video to show you in the last 20 minutes from san jose where the Fire Department has been called out to construction site and it appears they are looking into possible ghastly but we are looking for confirmation from the Fire Department at capital avenue. A couple of fire engines are in the street slowing down the traffic a bit in the area. New this morning, firefighters are investigating the cause of the overnight fire at a parking garage at third and the street. The Fire Department knocked it down quickly but they have not yet said how it started. The south bay s. W. A. T. Team broke through the window at a home in milpitas to end a four long our standoff. He had barricaded himself in the apartment on south temple drive. We have more on th
