Their daily afternoon activation at the mini park at turk and hyde and we are also fortunate to have lower c. B. D. Who is overseeing Sergeant Mccauley playground in the afternoons as well. But that work was funded because of the tremendous organizing that happened in our neighborhood to ensure that we are putting our resources and eyes on the park and i thank the rec and Park Commission staff for working so closely with our District Residents to ensure that were not only improving our parks but also activating them so people feel safe utilizing them. I think that at this time i just want to appreciate, mr. Ginsburg, for coming in and answering many, many different questions and we all care so much about our parks and open space so it was great to actually have this presentation and update. And also to get a sense where rec and park is moving on the equity metrics and plan that this board had requested in 2016, under supervisor john ovolo as we move forward with a set aside for rec and

Im michelle levis, soma resident. As you all know, soma has been in development for San Francisco and has become a neighborhood of ultra rich and ultra poor. I would like to advocate for an increased range of affordability. We have families where two families work minimum wage jobs and they dont qualify for the affordability, making too much. I have a struggle between talking about the new dream community when across the street, part pardon my language is a [beep] show.
