A des prit need for blood donations as coronavirus patients crowd hospitals. I thought it was terrible what he did. To write a letter . This isnt a literature. A naval captain and bay area native fired for speaking out about the safety of his crew. Did he did anything wrong . The calls for an investigation. High School Seniors across the country having to make a big life decision without ever leaving their homes. What universities are offering as they cancel campus tours. Stooint more than 3,300 cases have been confirmed in the bay area with more than 1,000 of those in santa clara county. 87 people have died from the virus in the area. Good afternoon newsom calling for more to be done when it comes to testing. Let me acknowledge on the outset, the testing space has been a challenging one for us. And i own that, and i have a responsibility as your governor to do better and to do more testing in the state of california. Across california more than 126,000 people have been tested for covi
You see my name tag in here, and im a public server for more than ten years and a union storer for Government Employees. You all know we have 2,000 Government Employee expos emplon Public Relations for the San Francisco chapter. I have been coming in here to be reporting to you in dates back in 2017, 2018 and 2019. I was here in october of 2019. I came before you as Ethic Commissioners and staff to investigate government abuse, government corruption with Public Officials. I have been reporting to you possible corruption with elected officials through election fraud. And no other party for 45 years. We have green, independent, libertarian, republican, nonpartisan or constitution, but in San Francisco, we only have one party for 45 years and that is democrats. Theres no political equity for people by super pac. 2018, San Francisco taxpayers pay 4. 16 million in matching funds to support democrats and refuse nondemocrats to go into forums. 2019, democrats and all of you sitting in here in
At 4. 00, the burden of that additional cost to the individual that is coming from a low Income Community. The other is, while i may be very interested in sustainable practices, does not mean my coworkers are as well. I am concerned that while we are going to put a burden on the businesses to charge 25 cents, i am concerned there will be a counter act of not going after not compostables that are more expensive because they will be charging the people for them until they would just find a cheaper method of charging, because it is no longer seen as a positive thing that we are offering a compostable as an alternative. Thank you. Thank you. My name is moses. I am the ice cream business. I believe you all know that i volunteer. The only thing i have a problem is that, how can i tell the tourists to bring your own cup . It is ice cream. How are we going to give them a reusable cup . If we want to charge them 25 cents because it is a tourist area. This is a tourist trap. Trap. Trap. I dont t
Is not what i am picking up here. I expected actually to hear quite a bit more aggressive talk in opposition. Instead what i heard was a lot of willing to work with each other, trying to get to that spot. I would just caution you from going too far down that aggressive, sort of us versus them. It doesnt actually look to me like us versus them. We should probably try to foster more of that working together to make this as effective as possible. With all due respect, you should see my email inbox right now which is a lot of response. I think people want to ease into this. That is what im hearing from the other side. I agree with commissioner laguana. I did not hear the negativity. It is just the easing into it. Commissioner zouzounis, you know, said of the best and we have seen this with other legislation. That is the fema fee mitigation. I think if you ease into something, you know, let them get rid of whatever they have on hand. Also, with the composting. We all had to go into the comp
Stuff, i love going to my local places and they are all going away. I would like to come up with something that is a winwin on both sides. What that is . I dont know. Im trying to get feedback. I like what william said here, you know, maybe if there is something we can get back, or something you said, like low hanging fruit with fees. I will point to the ordinance that was presented, item number three was a recalculation of fees that brought fees down that makes a placket system easier to comply with. Lets not look at this as a stick, it also does not exist in a vacuum. We are at the fate of the restaurant hearing just two weeks ago. If there is an right now for carrots for Small Business, it is right now. I do not think that this ordinance is going to kill restaurants. Im sorry, i dont think so. I look at an email sent out by the California Restaurant Association that disparages this as a tax, which says this is making changes to the bussing requirement that its not making. It says we
