R. T. Trains. Abc 7 News Reporter anser hassan lie in the b. A. R. T. Station for us. Good morning. Reporter its been a bit of a slow start. There was a power outage earlier due to some maintenance work. This pattern has caused system wide problems for b. A. R. T. Trains and b. A. R. T. Tracks. It has been so hot that the heat caused tracks to warp making for a bumpy ride. B. A. R. T.

Is what is missing from the buyout ordinance. We dont have the underlying reason for the buyout, if you would, as part of that data. We have the mass of buyouts and how much the tenant was paid and how much tenants were in the unit. It is entirely up to you to come up with the calculation to make sense. These are complex laws. We are often working with those kinds of issues which is trying to balance what the law actually says with air picture we want to produce to figure out if we are doing a good job with Housing Production as opposed to displacement. I will bet you dollars to doughnuts if we could take your 900 or 370 and cross correlate them with mr. Strahans department of building inspection, you would see in a large number of those cases subsequent to that buyout a Building Permit is filed that may or may not require an entitlement at planning. Almost instantly after the buyout happens somebody fluffs that unit up. While we dont have that data i bet you dollars to doughnuts i can
Thank you, Ethics Commissioners. My name is ellen lee zhou. I am a Public Servant for more than 20 years. I am an seiu Bargaining Team member for employees. Our union has more than 52 of the public employees. I am also the director of Public Relations for the california civic grand jury association, the San Francisco chapter. As a public employee, i am trained to practice Good Government conducts. I am here as a resident of San Francisco for the last 30 years. I have been coming to Ethics Commission many, many times, during 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, and today. I come before you, Ethics Commission and ask you to restore law and order. Ethics commission was setup to find corruptions in the government. The last time i was here talking to you, it was march 15, 2019. I reported to you we have a lot of possible corruptions within the electoral officers who purposely created laws that welcome criminals and drugs and drug dealers. For example, we have 25,000 drug abusers and users and sellers in
I am also the director of Public Relations for california civic grand jury association, the San Francisco chapter. I am here today as a former nonpartisan candidate running for mayor for the june 2018 election. I was discriminated because i was not a democrat. I was not white, i was not black. I was not allowed to go into the many of the debates and forums, and those took place in public places, such as the city hall right here with televised programs, public parks, and many other occasions like 401 vanness south vanness. I have been coming here and asking you, Ethics Commission to start investigation to stop possible unfair election and possible election fraud. The last republican mayor in San Francisco was 55 years ago. That was george christopher. The last board of supervisor who was nondemocrat was 45 years ago. San francisco, the Electoral Officers have been bought and paid by super pac, controlled by people who have money. San francisco should not and no longer for sale, but the
While. Were hearing the same thing from everyone when it comes to sweeps and their belongings getting taken. I also talked to the officers on the front line and i got to tell you, theyre being thrown under the bus. They dont first off, theyre being put into a role that is not their role as an officer. They also dont have the resources. They just say i wish there was somewhere that folks could go and they know that there isnt. My big beef with hsoc from the getgo and continued throughout has been the lack of transparency, the lack of community involvement. Im on the local homeless coordinating board and i was with sfpd homeless Advisory Board and nothing. Nothing. The only way i was able to do it was to do a ton of sunshine requests. Its not ok to be where the Department Heads are all just working together. Theres no input from the community. Thats a major issue with that. There are alternatives and weve been working on the safe sleep policy until this prop q nonsense that was just a po
