Situation there. I know youve been monitoring social media all afternoon. The interesting thing to me about this is people liken it to ferguson. There are a lot of differences, theres a black mayor in baltimore. Theres a black police chief in baltimore. Just give us the time, give us a couple weeks they said. Obviously that was something some people in that area were not prepared to do. Im noting that cnn is quoting the Baltimore Police department and criminal Intelligence Unit as having credible information that members of various gangs including the black gorilla family bloods and crypts have entered in to some kind of partnership to take out cops. They may be using this unrest as an opportunity to go after Police Officers. And as you two have reported, seven officers have fallen victim today including one who theyve described as unresponsive. You have to take in to account this isnt just about anger in this case. Theres a criminal element that may be involved as well. At this point
My perspective is from this point of view. You are the custodians of the crown jewel of San Francisco, which is the largest park in San Francisco. We have 40 probably within chestnut street, 40 restaurants. We have restaurants all over the city. Im all in favor of commerce. I believe im in business myself here in San Francisco. But as custodians of the crown jewel of San Francisco, and custodians of one of the finest views in San Francisco, i dont understand why we need another restaurant. Another restaurant is a very nice thing to do. Theres plenty of spaces all over the city to do this. We have lots of spaces in the city where you can put a restaurant. But i firmly believe that as an open space weve heard issues of alcohol, heard issues of kids playing, all of these types of things. But i think if you look back, as we get older, at some point in time you have to look back and say why did i make9 2x this decision. And i think open space, and an open space as a park, parks and recreat
Id like to question seriously why this item is being heard in this committee. In my opinion, this committee is not functioning as it should be doing, and i seriously question why this item is being heard here. Most Political Savvy people know that there are at least two other city committees that should be hearing this, rather than this committee. So i would like a discussion in front of everybody, especially on tv, about why its being heard here, and not in those other two committees. But i have to be grateful that we are having this hearing this afternoon because the old audit and Oversight Committee kept having postponements so i have to congratulate the new audit and Oversight Committee for having this hearing. Also, i would like a discussion whether food trucks are a alternative to having this restaurant, since other neighborhoods like the west portal oppose food trucks. So id like a discussion in front of everybody about the issue of food trucks. Lets put it this way. Some of the
Lets put it this way. Some of the speakers here wonder why this has become a controversial issue. Goes. Thats enough said. Thank you. Supervisor farrell thank you very much. Is there anyone else that would like to speak in Public Comment . All right. Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. President chiu. Supervisor chiu thank you, first of all i want to thank the members of the public who have come to express their perspective on this on all sides and from many historical perspectives. Typically for a project like this i would tend to defer to the District Supervisor, given that our District Supervisors nanders the neighborhood issues and tha that is my inlineation today. I have a couple of questions to the department that were raised by Public Commenters as well as from the Marina Community association. Many members who have come out today. Could you talk about what specific outreach was conducted and what type of notice to. Thank you, supervisor. Cassandra costello with park and rec
