Welcome, City Attorney herrera. Good morning. Thank you to mayor breed, chief scott, supervisors peskin and haney for joining me this morning to highlight our collective commitment to combating an all too familiar problem. Open air drug dealing in the tenderloin. Were all created to solutions to make sure we combat this epidemic that is taking control of the tenderloin neighborhood. This morning, my office sued 28 known drug dealers, file. They do not live in the tenderloin, but sell deadly drugs there. The drugs that are fueling the drug crisis in our streets. This is to stop the brazen drugdealing that has plagued this neighborhood. Last year alone 441 people died from drug overdoses in the city and the tenderloin had the highest overdose mortality rate of any neighborhood in the city. Enough is enough. These injunctions are carefully crafted to simultaneously safeguard a defendants due process while targeting with precision, the problem of drug dealers coming from outside the area t
Amendment that would create a department of sanitation and streets which would take over some of the duties of the department of public works. This new department of sanitation and streets would be responsible for sweeping streets and cleaning sidewalks, providing and maintaining sidewalk trash cans, removing graffiti and illegally dumped waste and maintaining city buildings, public rest rooms, and street trees. The department of public works would continue to provide all other Services Required by law. Proposition b would create a fivemember sanitation and streets commission to oversee the department of sanitation and streets as well as a fivemember Public Works Commission to oversee the department of public works. The mayor would select the directors of both departments. If you vote yes, you want to create a department of sanitation and streets with oversight from a sanitation and streets commission, and you want to establish a Public Works Commission to oversee the department of pub
Are there any other members of the commission who have any comments. Seeing none, i would i wont make a motion to continue this. Im just going to ask staff to agendize the hearing that we all want for our next meeting. That is an information item. Any introduction of new items . Seeing none, is there any general Public Comment . Yes, commissioner, there is. There are two callers. First speaker, please. So, again, commissioners, this pandemic, as you can see, very few people want to participate in any of these major projects. So we leave it to you, our representatives, to do Due Diligence based on third street, which is a mess, the central subway, we are waiting for the opening, the van ness bus rapid transit, the businesses that needed to be helped have gone. And we havent learned anything what happened on Market Street before. We always dont seem to learn something from the past projects and we dont seem to have a checklist. We just live it to become project managers, who are not real
And while we should not be an island grid, storage is essential especially with these fires that are going on that can be problematic for transmission lines that serve our great city. So, seeing were a densely packed city, we should put batteries in and solar panels to help and be able to ride through difficult times as well as be able to store electricity that you can purchase in the overnight when it is inexpensive and send it out to the grid for our customers when market electricity is much more expensive. So continue the acquisition of renewables as we work toward a 100 renewable power, all electric San Francisco and keeping the Value Proposition commercial utility power. Thank you. Thank you, caller. Next caller commenting on item number 4, you have two minutes. Thank you very much. Good afternoon, president caen, member of the commission, protection alliance. Ill speak further about the peer review that mr. Nelson and the other caller discussed. I think theyve given you a fair bi

It definitely helps if im, like, feeling really stressed or, like, feeling really anxious about surfing, and i go surfing, and then, i just feel, like, im going to be okay.

For some kids that are, like, resistant to, like, being in a Mentorship Program like this, its they want to surf, and then later, theyll find out that theyve, like, made this co
