Senate bill 2 19 sponsored by leland yee extends the double fine zones that were established in 2008 to make them permanent. And since the establishment of the double fine zone, deadly accidents have dropped by about 75 along these busy routes. This bill is also supported by the California Alliance of retired americans because they, seniors and people with disabilities know that this will help protect seniors and their families. There is so much more work we can do in San Francisco, but the board of supervisors i believe should voice its strong support for important legislation like this to support pedestrian safety. Also, especially given supervisor kims comments about the tragic death of a child and the families in treasure island, im working also on a number of Richmond District fires and i know that others fro ....
In fact, since its implementation in 2009, recidivism has decreased across the board not only for the youth served, but for all youth committed to out of home placement, indicating that the program has a system wide impact. Positive impact. The juvenile Probation Department had a threeyear grant for the jcrt which just ended with this new grant they are asking for the authority to create a new social worker position.

Or a restaurant with someone playing a guitar, making that an easier permit process than a fullblown night club. At the time i indicated that we should be including deejays in the legislation.

There are many situations where deejays in Art Galleries or in a restaurant during the day or early evening might be there and it makes sense to encourage that and not to require those venues to go through the same significant permitting process that we require of night clubs. Another provision in the legislation will allow more live music in outdoor plazas and courtyards. Right now we actually dont have an ongoing permit for venues, whether its a plaza in a neighborhood or a Neighborhood Group once every week or once a month, have live music in the plaza. Or a venue ....
Appreciation for the golden gate workers i worked on for a year and a half. I look forward to the leadership of supervisors breed, yee and wiener on the Golden Gate Bridge board. A number of families brought to us at that board was one of the issues that we approved in concept and the 25 million more thats needed to build some barrier to acknowledge the dangers of the Golden Gate Bridge is some of the Unfinished Business that will be before you. Also, the allelectronic tolling that i know that supervisor chiu and others have been working it to educate our community about. Its going to be starting in several weeks. The human beings that have been the toll takers for years, the district is finding additional jobs and training for them, but it will be all electronic tolling by the end of or by early march. I th ....
