I am here, i had a talk with her who is an advocate, and her heart is in the right place. In the bayview, we had the bayview opera house, which was saved by ruth williams. Today we have a white woman, i have nothing against white women , but we have a white woman called barbara walker, who seems to know more about the culture of africanamericans, it is good that she is here, i have not done this before, but i asked her to stand here, because she should be made a director to run the bayview opera house, and given the necessary funds to do whatever the other ladies who are standing behind want to do. We have Community Benefits, over 600 million, we can have all of the people that need help in the bayview. All of the city administrators know about it, including the mayors. But we have people who are dipping into our Community Benefits for reasons, and for users that are not beneficial to the community. Here you have this lady, she can be bedded out, and given an opportunity to read the bayview opera house so that the culture, when you talk about culture, you have to get deep into it. It has to be deep into your dna. Most of you do not know one thing, i was born in nairobi, kenya. I speak 30 african languages. I dont tell this to too many people. We have people here, in the chamber that are not culturally competent. Thank you very much. Next speaker, please. How are you doing . Im glad you guys made it back off your vacation.

We are being attacked from different entities, i have another letter on my attack, and to also mayor lender breed. I will be going on ppo at 5 00 p. M. , and i will be public announcing what is happening to bayview hunters point. We need you all to understand that just because there are new people coming into our community, it does not give people the right to outcast and do the natives wrong. We are natives out here, this is it mayor lender breed city, this is all of our cities. We ask yall to step up, they get tired of coming down her and asking yall what you already know. We should not be under attack, no Law Enforcement entities, we should not be attacked through jon stewart, we should not be attacked through any of these private developers coming in.

Ive been spending all week with these women back here. Trying to figure out a way to organize ourselves, so we can come down here and explain to you all, we are under attack. It is not fair, it is unacceptable. The micro aggression and Everything Else going on out there and hunters point. Either yall are going to stop it or were going to stop it, have a good day. Next speaker, please. Thats an example how they need a voice. They need somebody that is incredible, combination of state law and federal law that are more powerful and equal to the United States of america, u. S. Attorney general. Somebody that knows the combination of state law, and fellow law pertaining to the constitutional law. All of these testimonies you just heard is proof that black people is being discriminated in the bayview on a class action level, a violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. A corrupt enterprise where you deprive black people of the constitutional right to pertain to due process and equal protection under the law. That is not equal protection by means of displacing black people from their origination housing location with higher income developments, and price in them out of the markets where they cant afford to live in the locations that they were born. That is called pricefixing, and price gouging. You are in violation of that, too. Is that clear . You are in violation of 18 to 41 where you are depriving people of their civil rights, if that demonstration is completed in front of the Federal District court judge comey you not be fined more than 10,000 cash money and sure not serve a prison term in a federal penitentiary. Csr coming at you like that with this type of testimony in front of a Federal District court judge, and then put you up there on the witness stand, demonstrate that you are not doing a god damn you cant say that you dont know about it, because theyve been coming down here to city god damn hall telling you about it. As that clear . Are you hearing me, peskin . Oh, yeah. I have a question for you too, how did you end up being fined 8,000 . It doesnt work like that, michael. Have a question about that, too. I have a problem with that, too. Walton, you need to put together a task force and get these people that is discriminating thank you. Next speaker, please. Keep your comments directed to the board as a whole and not to individual members. Thank you. Jesus stands alone. In all of history, there is nobody remotely close to the man christ jesus. He said, have greater witness than that of john. That is john chapter five. John the baptist was very unique individual, because to profits spoke about him, hundreds of years before he was born. When jesus said, i have greater witness than john. Think about this. 700 years before christ was born, the prophet said for unto us, a child is born. Unto us a son is given. His gender male. There is only male and female. The government should be upon his shoulder. His name should be called wonderful. Counselor, the mighty god, the everlasting father, the prince of peace, the increase of his government and peace there should be no end upon the throne of david, and upon his kingdom to order it, and establish it with judgment and justice, from henceforth, even forever, the seal of the lord of hosts has performed this. I was listening to george norad, couple nights ago, jonathan con, and he wrote a book called the harbinger. He brings up a point, when daschle got up there and quoted the verse, in isaiah, it was actually two verses after what i quoted you. He didnt realize that he was a prophet like caiaphas. He made a statement about the substitutionary death of christ, he had no idea what he was actually saying. Jesus died for our sins, see . He died for our sins, according to the scriptures area scriptures. Next speaker, please. Good afternoon. [singing] the station has been named rose pak, i want to welcome you back. Where there is love, i will be there. Get back supervisors, get back. Get back to your city hall job where you belong. Get back, get back, get back and youre are going to be strong.

My name is mark darrell cox. , the previous speaker, he was talking about scripture. [please stand by] in 2026, 2001 began the third generation. The fourth generation begins in 2026.

After those two cities, by water destroyed, chicago and dallas will be destroyed by wind next speaker, please. Next speaker. [indiscernible] go ahead. Hello, supervisors. We have seen a dramatic increase in inhabited r. V. S moving into our neighborhood. Who we have a few People Living in vans on this block, theyre always quiet, friendly, we would have them over for holidays and we would pay them to do all jobs around the neighborhood. Where whether as one or two vans, there is now 20 inhabited vehicles and trailers, debris, feces, needles, water, wastewater, dumping, and blocking of the sidewalk. At the moment there is a drug operation right across the street from my home. At night there are a group of eight cars that come out and park on the sidewalks all night. They blast music and sell drugs. That attracts other cars are outside of our community to drive through the main purchases there is a constant flow of traffic, loud music, altercations and gas and Power Generators making noise all night from about 10 00 p. M. Until 8 00 a. M. We have asked the People Living in the r. V. S and cars to keep the noise down, but it is only getting worse and there were more people yelling and fighting at all hours of the night. The music is so loud and our children cannot sleep. We have had to move them to sleep on the other side of the house to lessen the noise at night. There are some new cars and debris blocking the sidewalk. We now have to go around the corner with our strollers. We have been using a nonemergency. You can have your own two minutes. Thank you so much. I will reset the clock for you. I appreciate that. We have been using the not Urgent Police line on multiple times for multiple weeks, and sometimes we have to call multiple times and nights. We have yet to have a patrol car come to check it out. There are people who have been unsafe with drug use, they have filed numerous 311 request online we have never heard regarding our calls and request which has brought us here today. Five years ago we had a bullet go through our house. Our older sons exterior belgium bedroom wall, and it ended up in our living room. With a the new escalation of drug activity, we fear this could happen again or worse. Here is what we need and what we humbly request your help with. One, we want the r. V. S moved out and signs to be put up prohibiting camping in the neighborhood and we immediately asked that the r. V. S on the 1500 block move between from between our streets to at least around the corner outside of the residential part of our neighborhood to a street that is more industrial so we can have enough sleep and function and work, and kids can go to school, and three we want the noise ordinance and forced noise ordinance and forced. I am a musician, and i make a loud music for a living, but there is a time into place for it. A neighborhood where theres working families were trying to sleep and go to school, there is a time and place for loud music. We really appreciate this. Thank you. My name is bruce. I have moved into a senior apartment a year ago. I have a studio apartment and an embarrassment of riches. I stayed in shelters a great deal of my life, but i have to tell you, theres still people that are out on the street. We actually need more shelters. It is cheaper to put people at my place, i could put half a dozen people in their. I think there are there is the agreed ethic and the elitist ethic. There are people who are trying to get either people in s. R. O. Places or out on the street and they dont have anything in between. We need that. We desperately need shelters because theres not enough room for everybody. As well as private shelters as well as public. We need to get people out of tense if they want to get out of tense and put them in places. We need at least warehouses for people. Thank you. Next speaker, please. Board of supervisors, my name is john. I am an attorney and a member of direct action everywhere which was one of five organizations that reached out to mayor breed and this body during the recess to ask for your support for a bill of rights for nonhuman animals. We did so because what happens to nonhuman animals in the bay area, as well as everywhere is an atrocity, and i use that word because this is not an issue around which much rhetorical clarity exists. Governments and Industries Use terms like humanely raised and Animal Welfare standards to reinforce the idea that there is a right way to inflict violence on other beings, but when the we shed our cultural conditioning and we step back and objectively look at the facts that billions of animals are just as smart, just as emotive as our dogs and cats are being confined and mutilated and killed, the degree to which reality and our values diverge becomes apparent. I would encourage everyone here, as well as your staff, to look at documentaries like earthlings , or dominion, on the investigations and rescues of direct action everywhere to get a real sense of what is going on we are approaching this body because San Francisco has always been at the forefront of social causes that soon became adopted everywhere, including the Disability Rights Movement and marriage equality, and including the Animal Rights movement. We worked closely with katy tang last year to make San Francisco the first city in the whole world to ban the sale of fair, and now cities everywhere are starting to adopt similar bands. Thank you. Next speaker. Hi, good afternoon. I have made that mulch was drive today from reno, nevada. On august 24th, my vehicle was burglarized at Mission Street in a parking lot. I am a nevada resident, so my life is in nevada. My vehicle, that day in broad daylight, at 3 30 p. M. , they got into my car and took everything under the sun that i had owned. I lost over 55,000 worth of stuff, including my wedding ring i implore all of you, board of supervisors, where you guys know that this is an imminent and a prevalent issue in your city to make this a safer city for People Like Us who are travelling. This is not time not the first time my vehicle was burglarized. In 2012, the same thing happens. I should not be coming into the city and removing my belongings and valuables just so i can go and shop into safeway at 3 30 p. M. In the afternoon. It is not fair, nor is it right. I also an challenging your separation of power, like you went ahead and said, that come together and do something about this, police because last month, august long, you had 2,153 burglaries that have only been reported. That is 59 averaging even one day. It is not safe, it is not okay. This is not acceptable. I understand that you guys have a lot on your agenda and there are a lot of things that need to be done but this is not safe and it is not okay for this to happen. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. I am a member of s. O. S. Nicaragua San Francisco. We are a social Political Organization based in the bay area. We came together last year in april of 2018 because of the repression by the ortega dictatorship that is going on in nicaragua, and we do several events. We have an ongoing purchase every friday at 21st street. We have a speaker coming next week from nicaragua who is a political prisoner and a leader in the Prison Movement and my friend will speak more on that. Thank you. Thank you for your time. We will be having [speaking spanish] the national leader, the worker with nicaragua which is similar to what to watch they were doing here. Protecting the rights of farmworkers. In nicaragua at the moment, the crisis that is happening is already being suffered here in the San Francisco bay area. We are having many people come into the San Francisco bay area due to the humanitarian crisis. At the moment, i hear that it has to do with land rights. It has to do with human rights, and [indiscernible] he will be stopping by here to provide a conference in the San Francisco bay area, which all of you are invited. I encourage you to be, if you cannot make it, send one of your representatives to represent you in this conference. We really need the San Francisco supervisors to understand that they limit the nicaraguan community. Thank you. For more information, youll be receiving a letter in your offices with more information on how to rsvp for this event. Thank you. Thank you. Im also a member of the group. I really appreciate that we can have the time to address you in this regard, but it is so important for the nicaraguan american community. Thank you for your support in the future. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon. Welcome back to reality. My name is matt sutter. Im here speaking on behalf of [indiscernible] it is pretty upsetting, guys. We have big problems going on here. I am here today to speak because i refuse to be reticent. I want to remind you what it means to be self expressed and come back to the truth of who we are. You should all ask yourselves, why are we working in this career, which we have chosen, and then examine how your decisions are affecting people and their families. We have been pleading with you to help us and make an important and necessary decision to buy back our medallions now. And also, in return, i believe we deserve a chance to have a nontransferable medallion. The pain and suffering that we have gone through and a couple meetings ago, supervisor walton pointed out, although unfortunately after you had made a decision to push the vote on the homeless issue to march. He said, and i will quote, i dont see the word delay with crisis. We are in a crisis. It is time to step up like i have been asking you guys. We need some answers. Thank you. Thank you. August, a period of recognition. One from marijuana, a slang, to cannabis. Something that gives it a little bit more respect because it has been medicinal for thousands of years. Hookers and prostitutes now are sex workers. Lets give them a little bit more dignity. When i was in grade school, that started the fall of rome. I couldnt understand it but it was basically incompetence and the emperors. Here we are in the United States of america, moving on up. Trumps words inspire killings, inspire people to pull guns and shoot. That leads to the assault weapon semiautomatic his, they need to be banned. I have come to this just in the past month, useless, worthless in our society. It is time to bend them completely. Directv, the last three months, my television hasnt had channel four or channel five. If you have a local station in your area that is broadcast and given to you over directv or any other sport cast supplier, they should not be able to ban a local news station ever. We have enough problems trying to get as little news as we can. Distributors should not be able to ban our local t. V. Networks. Inc. You. Okay. Thank you. Any other Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Okay, madame clerk, please call the for adoption without committee agenda. Items 2323 out of order not out of order. Items 2323 were introduced for adoption without reference to committee, unanimous vote is required for a resolution on First Reading today. Alternatively a member may require a resolution to go to committee. Would any of my colleagues like to sever any items . Supervisor stefani . Item 20. Item 23 . Twenty. I would like to sever item 23 okay. Thank you. On the remaining balance of items, please call the role please call roll call. [roll call] there are 11 aye. Okay. Items 20 and 21 passes. Twenty and 22. Mr. President , 21 and 23 were approved today, were adopted. Okay. Correct. Supervisor stefani wanted to sever item 20. Item 20 is a resolution to declare that the National Rifle association is a Domestic Terrorist Organization and urging other cities, states, in the federal government to do the same. Supervisor stefani . Thank you. Colleagues, i know that you know i introduced this after the mass shooting at the gilroy festival, being outraged just by that shooting, since we have been on recess. We have seen more carnage across this country. Mass shootings in el paso, texas , where an individual filled with hate and racism targeted our latin x. Community, armed with an ak47 Assault Rifle with extra magazines. He killed 22 people and injured many more. Hours later, in dayton, ohio, nine dead and in 302 seconds and 22 injured. This person was armed with an a. R. 15 pistol fitted with an extended magazine that can hold 100 rounds. This weekend in odessa, texas, seven people were killed by a gunman, 22 others were injured, with 15 different crime scenes, as the individual, it was banned from owning a firearm, purchase one from a private seller because no background check was required. The n. R. A. Has done more to graduate and create the gun violence epidemic terrorizing our country. They buy off politicians, that gun violence legislation, prevent Gun Violence Research and tell us and everybody that it is video games, movies, mental illness, every country on this earth is exposed to these issue and influenced in equal measure yet only in the United States faced this mass gun violence. The difference is guns. None of our. Countries have Assault Rifles on their streets. The homicide rate in the United States is 25 times higher than any other high income country in the world. The n. R. A. Want you to believe that the solution to gun violence is more gun ownership. We have a gun ownership rate two times higher than that of any other country in the world. There are 393 million guns in this country which means there are more guns than people and we know if more guns meant more safety, then america would be the safest country in the world. The n. R. A. Exists to ask to spread information and puts weapons in the hands of those who would harm and terrorize us by blocking commonsense, gun violence prevention legislation, and by advocating for dangerous legislation like stand your ground laws, permit list carry and guns and schools from kindergarten on up through university. When they use phrases like i will give you my gun and you pry it from a cold, dead hands on bumper stickers, they are saying , there is debate about Public Safety that should be met with the violence. When they hold and National Conferences and expeditions, they aim to intimidate those who have already been terrorized and knowingly threaten anyone who would organize against the financial interest. The n. R. A. Conspires to limit Gun Violence Research, with strict gun violence data sharing , and most importantly, aggressively trying to block every piece of sensible gun violence prevention legislation proposed on any level, local, state, or federal. Over the recess, we had a rally on the steps of city hall, and i want to thank mayor breed and supervisors walton and brown for joining me. We held that rally to urge majority leaders of the senate, Mitch Mcconnell, to bring a background check bill to a vote in the senate. One that passed in the house. It has been sitting on his desk for over 200 days, and he refuses to bring it up for a vote. Had that passed, the gunman in odessa, texas, might have had a background check in the private sale. Mitch mcconnell refuses to bring that legislation up. Why . Because the n. R. A. Has given Mitch Mcconnell 1. 4 million, it is no surprise that he puts the n. R. A. s business over safety of our families and communities, and it is time this ends. The n. R. A. Stokes fear and promotes a culture of hate that is killing our fellow americans. They are misogynists who are fine with arming domestic abusers, even knowing 92 of all women killed with guns in high income countries, 92 in 2015 were from the u. S. In an average month, 52 american women are shot and killed by an intimate partner in this country and many more are injured. It is time to read this country at the n. R. A. And call them out for who they really are. They are a Domestic Terrorist Organization. I urge your support and i urge the support of every county in this state. Thank you. Okay, can we take this item same house, same call . Without objection, this resolution passes unanimously. Madame clerk, call item 302. Item 22 is a resolution to urge the department of homelessness and Supportive Housing to implement urgent policy changes to serve pregnant individuals, families living in single occupancy units are doubled up families and urging the department to pursue additional policy changes in coronation with the board of supervisors. Thank you. Colleagues, go ahead, you can speak first. We looked at this resolution at our last Board Meeting prior to the recess and i want to refresh our recollection because of the content. This urgent resolution catches the just of a certain urgent policy change under discussion between the department of homelessness and Supportive Housing. Individuals struggling with homelessness and their representatives in the mayors office. These include policies that will help pregnant women to gain access to services and housing much earlier in their pregnancies than the third trimester which is the current situation. It helps to eliminate the difference in the definition of homelessness that the city utilizes versus the federal government, and the impacts on on house families and individuals as a result. Finally, it supports the continued dialogue about how we can address the homelessness crisis in our city, with a focus on developing and implementing best practices as situations and demographics change. I want to thank supervisors fewer and haney for your leadership and your staffs work to help put forward this resolution, and also i want to thank supervisor peskin and supervisor brown for coauthoring. Colleagues, i thank you for your support on this. Supervisor haney . Yeah, thank you, president yee, for your leadership on this , and especially as well to supervisor fewer for all of your support on these critical policy changes these are two very important policy changes that would enhance access to some of the most vulnerable members of our community, particularly pregnant women who are homeless, and ensuring that they have access to Family Services and prioritizing the knees of families who are doubled up or living prioritizing the needs of families are doubled up or living in s. R. O. S. We know very well that the population of children and families in s. R. O. S is one that is very extensive in our city and has particularly a needs that must be addressed, social and emotional impacts have expensing homelessness with doubling up and living in s. R. O. S and right now, it does not provide the adequate access for them to get housing or even receive services. These policy changes have been Top Priorities for homeless Family Service providers and im very excited that we have now started a dialogue with the office of department of homelessness to be able to move these forward thank you to our other coauthors and supervisors , peskin and brown. Okay. Supervisor stefani . I wanted to thank my colleagues for this resolution and add my name is a cosponsor, please. Thank you. Supervisor walton . Same as supervisor stefani. Thank you. Can we take this item same house , same call . Without objection, this resolution passes unanimously. Okay. That will bring us to our next item, which is closed session. Madame clerk . Item 19 is a closed session for the board of supervisors to convene on september 3rd, today, for the purpose of conferring with our receiving advice from the City Attorney regarding the following existing litigation, in which the city is a petitioner, and Pacific Gas Electric co. Is an Adverse Party this closed session can occur today, this afternoon. It was pending approval of a motion that was approved a moment ago by the board of supervisors. Public comment actually did occur on that motion during general Public Comment, but i understand you were going to just ask for Public Comment on this item one final time. Correct. Before we convene closed session , are there any Public Comments . The californias youre putting aside california state funds and taxes, 21 billion to pay off lawsuits that have been filed against pg and e. For the destruction of personal property and wrongful death lawsuits with the fires that the transformers have caused throughout the bay area and causing well over 50 people on or about to lose their lives. Those people got on repairable harm, and for gavin newsom to sit up there and take funds to pay off their lawsuits, is a disgusting and an insult on everybodys intelligence. And by the same response, you got over 28,000 people Homeless People in the overall city and county of San Francisco bay area, and he is sitting up there, spending that type of money, paying off a lawsuit for pg and e. How come nobody have you complained about that . That is disgusting. And for him to sit up there and have approximately a minimum of 8,000 people that are homeless in San Francisco, and then turn around and give another billion dollars to the behavior section of the Overall Health department , and give a statement that that will help the homeless problem, is another insult on everybodys intelligence. What will the behavioral Health Department do . Tell them to behave differently than what they are doing . And what is he doing spending taxpayers money going over to guatemala . He is spending money to go over there. That is another example of misappropriation of funds. Youve got thousands of people that are homeless, and the main street that goes to the building in sacramento [indiscernible] thank you. Any other Public Comment on this item . San francisco government t. V. , overhead, please. Pg and e. Should have been taken over a long time ago by the city of San Francisco. They are wall street players. That is first and foremost, that is probably what america is all about right now. How about a new board of directors for pg and e. At some point in time . Fifty 7 bluecollar workers 57 , the bluecollar workers, the people that they put on the advertisement after they have a crucial fall down and say, our workers are the best in the world. Eleven engineers, 5 finance, 3 legal, 4 administrative, 13 residential, commercial rate payers on the board of pg and e. The next time we come around. If you guys want to take it over , you have my blessing. Thank you. Thank you. Any other Public Comments on this item . Seeing non, Public Comment on closed session is closed. We will be convening in closed session in just a moment. I failed to make some amendments on item 22, and i would like to ask that we send the vote rescinds the vote. I guess we need to take roll call. Without objection, we will resend the vote. As i mentioned, there are some amendments that i would like to incorporate into the resolution, just to basically clarify further what is intended. I dont know if i should read it does everybody have a copy of this . Yes . Okay. If everybody has a copy, do any to read this into the record . Mr. President , i dont believe the deputy City Attorney has a copy. Let me just hand him his copy. While youre looking at that, i will just read it into the record. These are three clauses. The sitting county of San Franciscos definition of homelessness in individuals and families living and supervise probably and privately operated shelter designated to provide a temporary living arrangement with the primary nighttime residence that is in the public and private place, not designed for or ordinarily use as regularly regular sleeping accommodations for human beings, including car, park, abandoned building, bus or train station, airport or camping ground doubled up in the homes of families or friends, staying in jails, hospitals, and rehabilitation facilities, and families living in single room occupancy, s. R. O. S. Whereas historically the city has made an effort to include individuals in these living situations by surveying nonna jails, hospitals, and rehabilitation facilities to identify individuals believed you otherwise be homeless, and has included this data in the appendix and the 2019. Of time count, but has not included this data in the body of the report due to an updated methodology, and where as using the updated methodology, the 2019. Of time count on the Homeless Population reviewed a 17 increase in homelessness from 2017 to 2019, so those are the three where as clauses. I dont think it will change anything. Correct . Okay. So i am making a motion to amend can i have a second . Okay. Without objection, can we take these amendments as is . Okay. Can i have a motion to pass this resolution as amended . Made by supervisor haney and seconded by supervisor walton. Can we take this same house, same call . This resolution as amended passes. Okay. Sorry about that. Lets go back to our closed session. Colleagues, we will now be convening in closed session. Members of the public, you will need to clear out and exit the chamber. Sheriff, lock the doors behind them. We will reopen the chamber once we finish this closed session and the public will be allowed to reenter. Okay. Are we ready . Okay. We are now backing open session. May i have a motion that the board finds that it is in the best interest of the public that we not disclose the closed session deliberations. Made by supervisor peskin seconded by supervisor ronen. Because this is a different house, do we need to take roll call . We will note for the record that a supervisor was not present. Then motion passes. Then i would like to have a motion to continue the closed session to october 1st, made by supervisor peskin and seconded by supervisor walton. Without objection, that passes. Okay. Madame clerk, please read the in memoriam. Todays meeting will be adjourned in memory of the following beloved individuals. On behalf of supervisor stefani the late kirby walker, on behalf of supervisor peskin, for the late charles redneck and mr. Lauren morrison. Colleagues, that brings us to the end of our agenda. Madame clerk, is there any further business before us today that concludes our business for today. All right, thank you. Meeting adjourned. I went through a lot of struggles in my life, and i am blessed to be part of this. I am familiar with what people are going through to relate and empathy and compassion to their struggle so they can see i came out of the struggle, it gives them hope to come up and do something positive. I am a community ambassador. We work a lot with homeless, visitors, a lot of people in the area. What i like doing is posting up at hotspots to let people see visibility. They ask you questions, ask you directions, they might have a question about what services are available. Checking in, you guys. Wellness check. We walk by to see any individual, you know may be sitting on the sidewalk, we make sure they are okay, alive. You never know. Somebody might walk by and they are laying there for hours. You never know if they are alive. We let them know we are in the area and we are here to promote safety, and if they have somebody that is, you know, hanging around that they dont want to call the police on, they dont have to call the police. They can call us. We can direct them to the services they might need. We do the three one one to keep the city neighborhoods clean. There are people dumping, waste on the ground and needles on the ground. It is unsafe for children and adults to commute through the streets. When we see them we take a picture dispatch to 311. They give us a tracking number and they come later on to pick it up. We take pride. When we come back later in the day and we see the loose trash or debris is picked up it makes you feel good about what you are doing. It makes you feel did about escorting kids and having them feel safe walking to the play area and back. The stuff we do as ambassadors makes us feel proud to help keep the city clean, helping the residents. You can see the community ambassadors. I used to be on the streets. I didnt think i could become a community ambassador. It was too far out there for me to grab, you know. Doing this job makes me feel good. Because i came from where a lot of them are, homeless and on the street, i feel like i can give them hope because i was once there. I am not afraid to tell them i used to be here. I used to be like this, you know. I have compassion for people that are on the streets like the homeless and people that are caught up with their addiction because now, i feel like i can give them hope. It reminds you every day of where i used to be and where i am at now
