Supervisor walton . Thank you so much, president yee. I wanted to go on record, much like at the budget and finance Committee Just to make the statements about the fact that the Mayors Office of housing and Community Development has a track record of being disrespectful and disingenuous to indigenous organizations, particularly black organizations, primaril. They stated they had a focus on prioritizing blacklead organizations as well as focus on equity and not only did they not fund equitable and only given 2 of 40 Million Dollars to blacklead organizations, but they want against their own priorities and their own protocols in terms of how to fund during this funding cycle and i just want to me sure, i would have thought against moving this forward had i not had a lot of love and respect for all of the other organizations that did receive funding during this process. Mostly they have attempted to remedy this continuous and systematic disrespect of black organizations by putting another Million Dollars in the street for programming and another million for capacity building, but that does nothing to exert the issues that exist when most releasing funs out into the community. Releasinreleasing funds out. I t they should work to really practise what they say theyll focus on and actually, i served for the department of youth and families and we prioritized and shifted our funding and we had conversations with organizations that we see in terms of thousands of dollars prior to new priorities and i say that when you change priorities, when you shift and say youll focus on equity, then youll have to make some hard decisions in terms of what doesnt continue. I neednt do that in this case and they havent done that in the past decade plus and i want it on record that they cannot continue to operate in this disingenuous matter. Thank you, supervisor walton. So i dont see anybody else on the rosters. Can you call the role. On item 19 role call . There are 11 ayes. Ok, without objection the resolution is adopted unanimously. Madam clerk, lets go to our role call. But just for the public, item 22 is on our agenda, but it was not sent as a committee report, so it is not before the board today. Role call for introduction. Supervisor hainey, youre first up to introduce new business. Thank you, madam clerk, i have one item for role call. Today i am introducing a resolution urging the city administrator to immediately nominate an interim county officer for the veterans in the city and county of San Francisco during covid19. The toll on the virus on veterans has been particularly harsh. They a often but not always older and many reside in shelters, nursing homes, homecare facilities that have been breeding grounds for the virus and many are frontline essential workers continuing to serve in our city as hospital workers, sheriffs and others. Last week, during memorial day, we paid tribute to not only those who died on the battlefield but more recent people who have fallen to covid19. Many of the veterans served and survive during the times of war only to die in the recent weeks from the coronavirus. We held a press Conference Last Week with a number of organizations in partnership with the Veterans Affairs commission and the resounding message from the group is that we need to support our veterans during this time. There are over 27,000 veterans in San Francisco is and many reside in district 6 and many are africanamerican and people of colour struggling to get the support they needs a veteran. Initial reports indicate that 10 of the covid19related deaths in San Francisco have come from the veteran population and many of the veterans are tragically homeless or live in shelters and lives have been further disrupted during this time and some moved to new facilities and being provided new care and environments and the va may not always have the same level of access to them. Because of that, they need to have a central advocate to represent them. The petition of county Veterans Services officer has been left vacant including during this crisis. The city needs a dedicated liaison with San Franciscostatl agencies and veterans organizations. The city needs a coordinated plan to ensure access to services for veterans and tracking them across our system of care and ensuring they do not fall through the cracks. The resolution im introducing calls on the city administrator to conduct a National Search and i believe there has been a process to put in place a permanent Veterans Service officer but we cannot wait in order to ensure that somebody is in that position right now. Over the longtem, working with our veterans and for our veterans is critical in order to ensure the Public Health of this community and often, they are left out and forgotten in many of the services and responses. I also want to acknowledge the work that supervisor stephanie has done on this issue, as well, and ill look forward to partnering with her and the Veterans Affairs commission who has done extraordinary work to make sure our veterans are supported during this crisis and beyond. The rest i submit. Thank you. Supervisor mamdleman. Thank you, madam clerk. Colleagues, i have two in mem more ya and a hearing request today. I would like to ask we ajourn margo amaretti.
