Well, good evening. Everybody. Welcome to tonights presentation on Charlie Chaplin who is known universally as an iconic comedian.

First let me thank our series sponsor Davenport Company not only for their support of tonights lecture, but for the support they have provided for the program over the years. The davenport farm was our very First Corporate sponsor and th...

First of all, i do want to thank supervisor avalos for introducing this legislation. For the most part it is something that i actually do agree with. Like supervisor wiener said, would love for the board to support unanimously at the end of the day. But we all know San Francisco is a city that embraces people from all walks of life and certainly as a product of immigrant parents myself, i truly embrace the diversity of our residents. However, i do believe that there is a fine line and a very imp...

Continued dialogue with the advocate community, and also with law enforcement. And i think that we know that supervisor avalos has engaged our district attorney, but i think that they have some legitimate concerns that have been raised. But i appreciate the spirit in which this is being done. The last thing that i would add is that i do think it is possible for us to have a unanimous vote and we can do that today by simply voting it as is. [cheering and applauding] supervisor avalos. Thank you, ...

Thank you. Supervisor tang. Thank you. And i appreciate supervisor yees comments. Some of them were actually similar ones i was going to make. Unfortunately we only had actually two members of our committee at the rules Committee Meeting and, so, i think to be fair as well as given the number of candidates, we really hoped to, to appoint more individuals to the task force at our next scheduled rules Committee Meeting. I also had the opportunity to speak with two of the organizations that do have...

Organization, could easily just accept market rate children rather than serving the lowincome because of the amount of money they get reimbursed. Our current state law is outdated. While the cost of living adjustments are offered yearlyedth reimbursement rates have not kept up with the rising costs of child care. In fact, they havent changed since 2007. Assembly bill 21 25 proposes that the standard reimbursement rate reflects the actual cost of child care facility. In San Francisco we consisten...
