Leadership institute and other grassroots organizations have done Great Research door to door, door knocking and advocacy. I wanted to acknowledge not only our former youth commissioner louisa c [speaker not understood] from the south of market area but also amanda from the sunset, malaysia funders, some of you may have seen advocating on different issues from the bayview Hunters Point area. Many of them kind of were from various high schools but also city college, San Francisco state as they were advocating and organizing for this piece of legislation. I wanted to also say that this ordinance specifically would amend the health code to include a cap on the number of allowable tobacco permits in each of the citys 11 supervisorial districts. While no existing permit will be taken away, a new permit would only be allowed in a district after the number of permits in that district has over time reached a cap of 45 permits. In addition, new permits have to be located at least 500 feet away
Enhanced ventilation systems to ensure that residents receive clean air in their units. This ordinance will also streamline the ceqa and permitting processes for project sponsors by clearly identifying all of the areas of the city where we know these enhanced measures are needed and will be imposed as ceqa mitigation measures. This legislation has been a part of an overall strategy to help keep residents of the city, and particularly those that suffer disproportionately from a wide range of Environmental Issues because of where they live. I want to thank the department staff, particularly karen cohen from the department of Public Health, wade w. From the Planning Department for their work on this very important issue. My apologies, wade, i just cant pronounce your last name. I want to thank supervisor kim for shining on as a cosponsor as she has ate large portion of her district which falls within the air quality hot spot zones. So, colleagues, i do can for your support in this importa

Im just asking you, you gave ma tenyear outlook here. Its a simple question. I mean, Ronald Reagan and tipnef retirement for Social Security back this the 80s. Should we look at doing that yet again and harmonizing medicare with Social Security age retirement as a nation . Should we be doing that, republicans and democrats . I think the question is coming together on what are the first order things that people should change well, these are we propose what we believe are how about this as a good answer, yes, we should . Republicans and democrats need to make structural changes to entitlements. Together, theomers a day aree country would be better off. Why dont we just admit that eventually were going to have to adjust the age of retirement to save these programs from to on the means testing point, i think you know it is in our budget.

Be diligent in making sure this actually happens. The department of technology, its a new thing for the department in terms of having to navigate all the different departments and utilities involved in these road projects. And as weve learned in term of pedestrian projects and other street design projects, it is sometimes like navigating an obstacle course. Every department or someone within the department has a reason to say no. Its not feasible, its not doable. Its too expensive, its too difficult. And we need to really make sure that our departments have a cando attitude about getting this conduit laid. It is not rocket science. It just needs to happen and we need to have our departments have an attitude that it can and will happen. And we need to support the department of technology when other departments or utilities just say no and obstruct the ability to actually get this done. In committee, i offered an amendment that was adopted to require periodic reporting by the department
