San francisco to this day do not opative smoke alarms in their units and the lack of working smoke alarm is a major cause of death from fire. We are this law requiring loaners to provide nrfgz in english, spanish, chinese to renters every year on the importance of smoke alarms and their responsibility they as pauperty owners have. The second problem the law addresses is many biltdings dont have opative fire alarms in common areas. This means that in the case of a fire tenants often times are not aware that a fire is actually taking place and we heard this from a number of the people who survive some of the fires that they didnt hear the alarm so this law requires there is proper inspection and testing of fire alarms in these buildsings and also requires department of building inspection maintain a website where tenant can look up for themselves to find out whether or not the building where they live is in compliance mpt the third piece of this legislation addresses the fact many buildi
My qualifications is im a formerly homeless parent with a homeless child under 18. I had been in a homeless shelter two years ago. If elected to the committee, there is a lot of things that i would like to accomplish that ive seen fall in the shelter seven and a half months. These things were like related to the program areas, such as the conditiomons, simes the areas didnt really promote, you know, a safe and decent environment. For Program Activities to be conducted. The children sometimes played, you know, on things that broken furniture, staff would watch or if the children were going to fall or get injured or something, no one said anything. Thats the main focus. Another area that i would like to see improve would be reporting deficiencies like if there was an incident they didnt report it if a child was injured. The staff wouldnt file a report. It would look like maybe the parents did something. They wouldnt say your child got injured on a chair or got a scratch. There was no kin

We know a big part of our Public Safety efforts are for not, thats one tool we have is to make sure we have these protections in place. Were also experiencing a crisis in Law Enforcement in San Francisco just like other places around the country and it makes sense that we strengthen our laws to build this trust and thats what this update here is about. Since we pass ted 2013 legislation due process for all, the federal fwo ft came up with Priority Enforcement Program which doesnt deal with detention letters, now they send a letter saying we should notify them when one of our persons at ice believes is undocumented. If they know whether they called the police or became a witness or a victim of a crime, that could result in a deportation, possibly their own deportation, that would put a series Chilling Effect on them wanting to pim up the phone and help police resolve crime. We need to make sure that people have that faith in our local Law Enforcement, any action they take will not lead
