Long lasting in those employment because they have owned something, they have something that they call their own. They feel that they are of value to themselves. They feel that theyre of value to their family and to the community on the whole. My goal is to be a Substance Abuse counselor because what better job could i have, could i get . Not that i say i cant work at some Corporate Place or be a porter or still, you know, whatever. But, i mean, you know, how, why could i not give away what i have. You know, i lived the life. While the impact of the Wecare Program is significant in itselfwe place over 2,000 people per year directly into employmentwe cant forget the larger economic benefit that the program has for the city. Those 2,000 people are trusted employees of local businesses. Those local businesses and those employees are returning tax dollars into the local economy. So when youre serving 50,000 people a year, when youre placing 2,000 people a year, that has a significant Econo
Animals in need. In addition, the department has very few enforcement officers who are able to go out into the field. Whether to respond to claims of mistreatment or neglected animals or to deal with potentially aggressive animals. Weve been seeing more complaints in dog parks from dog owners who state that other dogs are aggressive toward their dogs. Animal care control has few resources, but its really not possible for their agency to stay on top of those complaints and do an effective job monitoring and enforcing. So, the hearing will really take a deep look at animal care and controls budget, its staffing levels, what would be necessary to meet the needs of San Francisco and the responsibilities of the department and how we can go about meeting those needs through the budget process. Im calling the hearing now because rather than doing it in the middle of our typically hectic budget process, i wanted to air these issues very early.

Here we go a shot at the looking at the trees from the Resident Property wall right there and with the tops of those trees above the roofs they present greater sale areas. Their bound to have their tops blown out which means their toppings tops break off they can drop 20 feet or more from the tops and a can create enormous damage and injury. Looking at ahead those are the issues we see for the trees. Were the trees to remain there redwoods two through 5 will continue to grow in height and create additional issues the city would be like this in each case. It will further uplift the adjacent pathway and compromises the foupgz. You can see when you look at let me receive back to this is my opening photograph of the mini par

Could shrink the demand even further. In future richness of the plan would update these figures. And also given the small amount of space that is needed, we think the displacement pressures and land use impacts will likely be minimal on other uses. However, they are dependent on specific projects at the time theyre proposed so these would be analyzed when the projects come forward. So, at this time i dont know why [speaker not understood], but im going to turn it over to liz who is going to go through the recommendations that came out of all this data. Thank you, claudia. [speaker not understood] Planning Department staff. So, presentation so far has focused on how the plan identifies the current and projected need for Health Care Services in San Francisco.
