Good afternoon. Supervisor haney. We have a quorum. We will go to the next item of business. Before we do that, i would like to open this meeting with the tribute to ann halstead who passed away on march 13th. For those who knew here and cared about her, she was a former tida board member before my time. She served many years on the commission. When she passed away she was vice chair and also a member of the mp c, regional perhaps it board. She lived a life to make better the neighborhood, city, region. Involved with 20 organization this is her lifetime all unpaid, all in the service of creating a better San Francisco and region. Ann and i sat on boards of many nonprofit organizations, Chinatown Development corporation, we shared similar passions. Great cities, vibrant waterfront, open space and parks.

Different set of rules. Hair salons can operate outside only, but almost all salons dont have the space for that, so Alameda County customers can simply head to coops for a haircut. And were losing clients because of it. A hundred percent. And i dont blame them. City leaders in dublin and livermore just across the border from connecticut and asked Alameda County for a special exemption, but were denied. But bijust crossing a county line all of a sudden that makes a difference to the virus, and i just dont understand that. To me, i wonder if our message is getting through to the health officers, because i just cant understand it. If youre asking for consistency, of course it does not make sense. Reporter u. C. Berkeley Infectious Disease specialest dr. Schwarzberg said Different Health officers often make different decisions.

The mayors offices of the neighborhoods, program which is under oewdn. I think they will have a lot of advice to add. Obviously, they are usually dealing with existing neighborhoods and communities in how they can help those neighborhoods. This is a unique situation where we build up a new neighborhood. There are a lot of important lessons there. From my experience on the private side and also as planner, i think there is a important distinction between destination retail and neighborhoods serving retail.

That is where the neighborhood serving retail needs to be. I am sure you are aware of this as an asset manager
There is just some requirements ive worked around it a little bit. But i do think that child care would be very important. We do have some onisland services already, but were expecting the island to have a lot more families in the future. And we just want to make sure were not repeating some of the same issues that we have, you know, in the mainland of San Francisco where we have child care wait lists, and the wait lists are 2,000 people. Okay, great. And then lets see. Im also curious you cited examples, like mercy and other existing commercial uses on the island. And ive often wondered about whether or not those existing restaurants, which are great, and i go to them, but i wonder what the proportion of local islanders residing on the island are really using those restaurants and retail versus people who are coming from outside of the island . And just be cognizant i think it would be very important for us to make sure we have retail and restaurants that caters to the island resident
