it is a good fit for the global climate action summit. we hope those participants ride muni while they are here. finally, before the summit this weekend is the seventh annual muni heritage weekend, produced in collaboration with market street railway. it will be held from noon to 5:00 saturday and sunday across from the ferry building. we will have a lot of old vehicles out on display. rail vehicles, buses and many will be available and will be operate anything the afternoon on saturday and sunday. we encourage folks to come out. it is a great opportunity to reflect on and appreciate the great history that we have that is living history in terms of the rolling stock that still moves people to this day. we hope to see everyone on saturday and sunday afternoon across from the ferry building. that concludes my report. thank you very much. the heritage weekend will include the old muni buses we see out there to be available and out running if you have never seen or ridden on on
on a time schedule. thank you for your consideration. i would like to bring up mr. jeff adachi, welcome. thank you. good afternoon. good afternoon. would i would just like to specifically address the questions that you raised after the last hearing. if we can go to the first slide. overhead, please. one question that the board had was of the cases of detained immigrants in the san francisco court, how that would be distributed amongst other agencies, who are doing detained work? in our original proposal, i understand where we re at now and we originally requested 10 attorneys and 7 support staff and i understand from speaking to miss white-hours house the mayor s office is proposing two and supervisor fewer s proposal would strike somewhat of a balance, but we would want at least one more support staff to balance the ratio of attorneys to support staff. being that as it is, that would reduce the number of cases that we were able to handle to about 200-250. the non
