So today we have a different situation. We have a situation where the landlord and tenants are not the same people or even the same company. So we face the difficult challenge of trying to find a solution to continue a great institution, the flower market, even though there are different interests between the two parties. That being said, we made tremendous progress by resolving the financial terms and the agreement between kilroy, the flower market and the tenants. They are mostly finished, which im happy to say. However, we are not near closure with respect to the design of the physical market. It has always been the understanding by the flower market and by the tenants that one of the Community Benefits that would come with the project was the continuation of the flower market and as john kilroy himself told us, we would have a world class flower market. But as of today, the documents defining the flower market are not yet anywhere near the point where the city ends up with a world
And a half or two hours for work. We easily found so many workers in our coalition who were super commuters. There was one woman who traveled three hours three hours one way from stockton so she could have a good job in San Francisco but had to travel three hours. This jobs housing mismatch has a real cost and its the cost to people like bernadette. So this is why im here, our coalition is in full support, because we need this report. We need this datadriven approach to really fixing our housing crisis. Thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors. Cynthia gomez, our union represents the dishwashers and Food Service Workers at the airport as well as people who are able to after much struggle and fight are able to afford to earn a living wage and to be able to afford something a sustainable lifestyle in this expensive city, which is no small feat. And we applaud the leadership of supervisor mar and cosponsors in asking for this kind of data. As a Research Analyst i appreciate the extended use
City and bay is critical to the success of protecting our planet for generations to come. Thank you so much. Lets win, San Francisco. Well said, mayors. That was excellent. That is a rally. Oakland and San Francisco if i havent heard one like that. This is all about the pride, but we are doing this for the bay. We love the bay. No matter what side it is.

I am going to ask all of the folks on the edges to come closer. We want you in the photos. Our Congress Woman we want up here. Move closer. We have plenty of space up here.

Reminder that you are kind of lucky to be where you are, i guess. Just when you havent gone so far at all. I want them to go on maybe go on an interview thats more challenging that they think that they cant get that job. You know, just to kind of challenge and surprise themselves when they get that job and feel better. There had been women practicing law for many years, but there were so few of them that a lot of the issues hadnt really come into play and some of them worked out and some are still being resolved like equal pay and women in lawfirms and making sure women get fair assignments and in the Decision Making and working with law firms. I consider myself more of a beneficiary of all the women that fought really difficult battles along the way. Are you ready to celebrate the womens equality day everyone . [cheers. ] good evening. I am the Communications Director to one of our cohost to the w challenge rally. It is my pleasure this evening to introduce our mc for the event assess
