It does take a village to build a Child Development center. It does take tonnes of money to build a quality Child Development center. Thank you tenormin, thank you to match. I want to say one last thing. We are here in the tech capital of San Francisco. Salesforce is here, facebook, i dont know, they are opening up a campaign a campus. I hope that there will be a day that our staff will have equal wages and whatever their name is thank you. [applause] thank you. And now for a few words about her experience with her child, clearly who will be a student here at this place. Come on up. She is one of the parents here. Hi, everybody. I am a mom of two and i am thrilled to be here. This is the dream, like everybody else. It is a dream come true. I have been dreaming of this place since i moved here. Since weve become a resident over there, they told me that preschool will going to be here. We have been waiting for this for a long time. It feels like i have been waiting all my life. I have be
Theres a 15day right of appeal to the board of appeals. In reality, Public Notice is quite limited so when i hear from folks on the mission corridors that they dont want the director, plan the director after february to do this and theyre still discretional, i felt like we should listen to that. Given that the sensitive is entertainment and permitted in all that map that you saw. Or a vast majority. I hear you and ive heard in those meetings as well in the mission in particular concern i havent heard about entertainment. Ive heard about restaurant uses and expansion of wine and people i havent heard anyone push back about entertainment. Unless entertainment is being defined differently, how is entertainment being defined here . Are we talking about comedy, music . What are we talking about . I have the definition. A Retail Entertainment arts and recreation use that provides entertainment to the general public including dramatic and music performances where alcohol is not served during
In isolation. We are working with the Behavioral Health system, and as i said time and time again there is a real issue around equity.

We need to call out the injustices in these systems and make deliberate investments in targeting the population that continue to get left out when we propose new solutions to support the communities that we know are most vulnerable. So we are going to be making deliberate investments around making sure that africanamericans are supported as we move this process forward. [ applause ]. Mayor breed i want to thank dr. Nigusse bland and dr. Colfax because you have been doing the difficult work of managing the system with the resources that you have and not necessarily getting the support that you need to do it and that change starts today. That change wont happen overnight. We will be working towards making this a more justice, equitable, fair system using da

That is what we are all about. We are all about providing Second Chances by providing jobs and training for those who have barriers to employment. Whether it is formerly incarcerated, recovering addicts , people who struggle with english as a second language, veterans, and a whole bunch of other people that really need a Second Chance. I am really proud to be part of this

For the immigrant community, a lot of people arent sure whether they should take part, whether this is something for u. S. Citizens or whether its something for anybody whos in the yunited states, and it is something for everybody. Census counts the entire population. Weve given out 2 million to over 30 communitybased organizations to help people do the census in the communities where they live and work.
