Page 3 lines 1323, i would like to add a provision that a member of a city board or commission can seek a temporary waiver from the executive director for extenuating circumstances. While the waiver is pending before the executive director, member or commissioner shall be disqualified.

Colleagues, last night i stood on the rotunda steps with many of you as we celebrated the Lunar New Year with San Franciscos chinese community. President breed made remarks that resonated with me as she mentioned how lucky we are to live in a city so diverse. How our different cultures make our city so vibrant and how all of our communities must be celebrated. As a proud italianamerican, im introducing an ordinance today to celebrate and recognize everything that the italianamericans have brought to this city and continue to bring. This ordinance will recognize the second monday in october as italianamerican heritage day, as well as being known as Indigenous Peoples day. We celebrate the cultures and rights of italianamericans the parade is the oldest in the nation, celebrating its 150th anniversary in october of this year. Its my hope that on this day, the city and county of San Francisco can celebrate the rich diversity and contributions of both indigenous and immigrant communities. We owe a great deal of gratitude to italian immigrants that have contributed to our city, landscape and culture and history and we need to tell them that. First, our beautiful city is named in honor of st. Francis of assisi. His compassion for service led to them to act in times of extreme poverty and we reference him all the time. Italianamericans have had a long presence here with the First Arriving in the early 1800s. Italian immigrants built strong traditions in fishing, winemaking, and ghirardelli started. And a college was founded, today 19 as the university of San Francisco. In aftermath of the 1906 disaster, bank of italy set up a desk from two barrels and wooden plank to help provide financial resources. The network and institution expanded to what we know as bank of america. The citys reputation as a vibrant, worldrenowned center is built on contributions by artists, singers, dancers, filmmakers and philanthropists. For example, first resident Opera Company was established in 1923, which in collaboration with other members, led to the creation of the San Francisco opera association. The oldest surviving Opera Company on the west coast. He also organized the construction of the War Memorial Opera House during the Great Depression as a monument to veterans of the first world war. Free open spaces for poets, authors and book lovers across the world. San francisco inspired the nation with great italianamerican athletes such as joe dimaggio, and tony lazari. Some of the biggest contributions are in public service, including three italianamerican mayors, who led San Francisco through momentous times. Mayor angelo rossi, first mayor of 100 italian descent to manage a major u. S. City. Mayor joseph aliotto, steered the city through the 1960s and 1970s, and through projects like bart and transamerica. Mayor George Mascone fought to keep the San Francisco giants here. Congresswoman nancy pelosi became the first woman to serve as speaker of the house of representatives in 2007. Those who live, work or visit San Francisco are fortunate to experience traces of the earliest contributions and creations of San FranciscoItalian Culture in businesses, shops, daily lives throughout north beach. Every time im in north beach, im reminded of my great uncle and aunt who met in north beach. He was a fixture there in the 50s and 60s and she was the bell evidence secretary at the grammar school. They were both so proud of their italian heritage and i hope they would be proud of the steps were taking here today. I want to thank the coalition of italianamerican organizations and lorenzo ortono. I also want to thank supervisor peskin that represents north beach. This ordinance seeks to honor all italians for past and present contributions to San Francisco and it seems to recognize the Rich Heritage of italianamericans and to celebrate their im measurable contributions on the second monday of october for generations to come. Colleagues, i have a resolution im introducing today supporting the march for our lives that commends students for their effort to demand common sense gun laws and safety measures. On february 14, 14 students and three Staff Members were tragically killed. We lost aaron feis, football coach. Christopher hixon, 49, schools athletic director, husband and father. Alisa alodette, star soccer player. Martin ducay, 14 years old, immigrant from mexico. Jamie gutenberg, age 14. Loved to dance. Luke hoyer, admire stephen curry. Gina montoto, a member of the color guard team. Joaquin oliver, immigrant from venezuela that became a naturalized citizen in january, 2017. Elena petty, junior rotc, helped after hurricane irmas devastation. Peter wang, rotc member. Peter pollack, future college student. Helena ramsey, 17, champion in academics. And both the School Marching Band and orchestra. This was the 18th School Shooting in the first 43 days of 2018. Following this terrible tragedy, the surviving students have organized to take action and are demanding that their leggors legislators take on common sense gun reform. These students have organize and will lead the march for their lives here on march 4, 1 00 p. M. Theyve invited students to plan satellite marches and students here have answered that call. Its a show of support of the students here and throughout the university who have said, enough. Their call to action for not one more seriously brings tears to my eyes. Not one more child shot at school. Not one more teacher, who has to make the choice to jump in front of a firing Assault Rifle to save the lives of their students. Not one more family who has to wait for a text or a call that never comes. These students have said that they will no longer risk their lives waiting for someone else to take action to stop the epidemic of School Shootings thats become all too familiar. Its time for us, the adults, to take a stand and let their voices be heard. I want to thank the brave students in San Francisco from my district and other districts for reaching out to me and i want you to know that we stand with you in solidarity. I have one more in memoriam. For ming chapin. Ming was born in new york city and grew up in cold spring harbor, long island. She moved to San Francisco and lived in the same apartment in Pacific Heights for 32 years. Living across the street from Lafayette Park, ming fell in love with the beauty and many friends she made there with her dog. They were daily fixtures in the park. Ming started dog tree in the park, installing strings of lights on the tree asking park friends to decorate it with photos of their dogs around the holidays. Its continued ever since and is a holiday tradition in Lafayette Park. It will continue in the future with the passing of the decorations to a close friend and dog walker. Ming was involved with the friends of Lafayette Park. Mings heart and soul were in Lafayette Park and shes been honored there in several small groups since her passing. She will be greatly missed, but her spirit will live on in the contributions shes made to Lafayette Park and the city. The rest i submit. Supervisor breed thank you. We have one commendation today and i would like to turn this over to supervisor malia cohen. Supervisor cohen thank you. Im not sure if the group is in the chamber today. Im looking for representative from willie brown. Okay. Make yourself known, sir. This afternoon, i want to present this beautiful stack of commendations to a group of young people that were honoring that are incredible advocates and very important change agents. They have rolled up their sleeves and worked toward a solution. Students were upset about the unfair reality of their environment. Particularly about healthy food choices. 8th grade students said, were in a food desert. That means we have Liquor Stores around and not grocery stores. This reality is the outcome of assumptions that certain communities dont like to eat fresh foods. This manifests in food retail red lining, which is the oversaturation of Liquor Stores and fast food. The six members of the black Student Union researches the effects of junk food in their community. They won first place and a cash prize at the statewide black minds matter competition. Their report, called good eats unwrapped found that the consumption of junk food like cookies, cakes, chips and soda affect the way students learn and behave and contributes to littering. So the report found that the issue affects our schools and contributes to the Health Issues within the africanamerican communities of the united states. What may taste good may not be good for you.
