So i do not support this motion. I think we have to act with urgency. I think it is high time we have an oversight body for a department that has ever expanding budget. Ironically, it was the mayor who didnt support prop c because she said there wasnt enough oversight over the department. So how all of us are not supporting this department right now is absolutely beyond me.

We currently allow intermittent activities like Farmers Market at hospitals and postsecondary institutions and its surprising we dont allow them on other Government Owned Properties like the d. M. V. Parking lot on baker street. The Farmer Market has contracted with the d. M. V. , but it could not make the move under current zoning. Making this change today will allow the market to expand and serve the interests of the residents of district 5. The Pacific Coast Farmers Market association is a good neighbor. And theyve created markets that are accessible to all. Every vendor at this market accepts snap benefits and the market managers are considered members of the community. This move and expansion theyre proposing has the full support of the northern of the
