Now San Francisco has lots of social problems, like this picture, almost in the city. According to health San FranciscoHealth Department update report, because people take marijuana and use the health services, it increase 138 . And also, people use marijuana need emergency, increases it 88 . These are San Francisco report. We dont want San Francisco social problem to increase user of marijuana. Most the young generations, they need to go to work. please stand by feature. Like salmonella, e. Coli, such like that, that cannabis can be something that can be controlled pretty simply with e implementing things such as locks, separate indoor equipment, and then, rooms within the commissary shared spaces. We already have those processes and procedures in with our with our current setup, and we hope to be able to continue to do so. Id also like to advocate that there should be permits for pop up shops and vendor permits for special events, and yes, thank you for your time. Thank you. Zoe polk its whatever, so theres zoe polk, and ace, whatever you want to take it in. Good morning. Im honored to be here before you speaking on this issue. As you may recall in 2012, the Human Rights Commission did a human rights hearing of the impact on the war on drugs. We had over 100 members of the public who talked about the war on drugs, and about what the consequences are. We were delighted to work with Nicole Elliott and the department of Public Health and hope that really laid out a sense of equity and its crucial and needs to happen as as soon as as the program is laid out. I also just want to talk about thinking about the report and intersecti intersectionality, we were thinking that peoples identities and multiple intersection of identities, so were taurki were talking about incarcerated people, for example, which includes veterans who were particularly after the vietnam war experienced high rates of mental disorders, ptsd. Its also in the lgbt community, people are more likely to experience discrimination and harassment, and that is the reason that 16 of transgender identified difficulties are more like adults are more likely to be incarcerat incarcerated. We know that women are often leveraged to get the male kind of king pin in the drug industry, and they are facing harsh sentences in order to maybe rat out their partners, and they are disproportionately affected by the war on drugs, as well, and i just want you to think about peoples identities. Thank you. Thank you. Ace, come close us out. Ill close it out in two minutes. Thank you, supervisors. Im here specifically something, for everybody giving titles and founders, im the founder of case, Community Assisted enterprise. Im speaking for the black community. Now, you talk about the unfairness, you talk about the war on drugs, you talk about how many of us down in that building down there, because of a bag of weed, the people been serving their families not serving, but providing for their families, all these dispensaries everybodys got a great start, everybodys connected, but what about us african no, im not african, im blacks. I want to know how many blacks are in the city prisons, jails right now for an ounce of weed. If anything, you supervisors, release them, and put them in these dispensaries and theyll be millionaires. They put people like me in jail. The war on drugs, you know what it did to the western edition . It wiped us out. All the black men, it just wiped us out. President s wife just said, just say no to drugs, and now, all of a sudden you want to let these millionaires becomes billionaires . By the way, my name is ace, and im on the case. We need places like this, just like you drink your wine and beer, we need to go somewhere so we can be somewhere. So my name is ace, im on the case, and i will be finding out whos on the board. Thank you very much. I dont have anymore speaker cards, but if youd like to come and does thaddress this committee, please step forward. Thank you, supervisors. My name is stephanie tucker, and im here to speak in support of the cash compassion program. I think compassion was basically the founding principles of cannabis, and its really, really important that we honor it and more important that San Francisco take a leadership role in it so that the state will follow suit. Id also like to just bring up the ownership right now is at 20 . If you guys might consider bringing that up to 35, i think in addition, if you can identify other places that, you know, businesses can get funding, liking making available Small Business loans and and things of that sort prior to limiting the way that people can raise cap pital, th would be really thoughtful, and i just want to just also make sure that everybody realizes that onsite consumption is also a tool, a tool thats used to get people off the streets, and that we spoke to the head of dph for the state, who said that he understood that, and that he would follow suit of the local municipalities, so i hope that you take that into consideration as you move forward. Exami and lastly, i just want to express my strong support for the equity program. I want to thank supervisor cohen for taking the lead on that, and that is all. I hope you have a wonderful day, supervisors. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello. My name is brandon brown. Im with the equity working group. Im a retailer, as well. Ill be real quick. Appreciate you guys on these long these long hauls for Public Comment. I just want to touch on the consumption lounges as forcing the elderly, as well as lower Income Housing to break the law, like a man said earlier, is a fine outside. If you dont have lounges, youre forcing our elderly so basically, you have to own your own home in this current circumstance. Its an issue thats been going on for years with existing patients that i have over the years, and so id just like to put that talking point in your mind that without consumption lounges, youre forcing people to break the law, either smoking inside, inside their home, where they might lose their home, or outside, where they might get a fine. Obviously, youre heard the thousand feet in front of a daycare is inequitiable. I believe 500 away is enough away from a school, and the 300 feet radius. Thank you very much. Any other members of the public wish to comment on this item . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Okay. So do we need deputy City Attorney pearson back here . Youre good . Okay. So i think we have a couple of things on the agenda. We have amendments proposed by supervisor sheehy. Can we take those without objections . Supervisor sheehys amendments that were proposed without objection on the program and onsite consumption . Im okay. Yes. Without objection those items are moved and ordered. You want to make a formal amendment, supervisor fewer, on the regarding medicinal i just want to reiterate again what you were looking for so they can draft that up . Supervisor fewer sure. I think that City Attorney givner will have language drafted for tomorrow, is that correct . Yes. You just want to reiterate what it is. Supervisor fewer yeah. Its just adding into the amendment strengthening the integrity of our Medicinal Cannabis offering, making sure that medicinal patients have access to the loose product, medicine. Supervisor safai is that clear, anything else, deputy city givner . Yeah, let me just make sure im capturing what you want. It would be the amendment would Say Something along the lines of the director of the office of cannabis shall adopt rules that ensure that customers purchasing Medicinal Cannabis, or that supervisor fewer medical patients have access to direct access to physical product or Something Like that. Right, to a variety of different types of product. Supervisor fewer exactly. Thanks. Supervisor safai is that good . Supervisor fewer yes, and then, i also wanted to mention i think that miss elliott supervisor safai has done some research quickly . So you want to mention that before we make a motion. I wanted to clarify my suggested amendments that i was asking you guys to propose. Supervisor safai okay. Page 58, line 12, for cannabis retailers this is one that we did officer, striking authorizes and did supervisor safai oh, no, wait. Page 58 first supervisor safai can we dale with just ensuring that were talking about that theres language in there that says the operators shall have loose product made available to medicinal patients onsite . Supervisor fewer yes. Yes. So thats something the board can vote on tomorrow. Supervisor safai so wed we dont need to vote on that. Were just giving you direction. Okay. Clear. And then, with regard to page 58, line 14, where it says a cannabis retailer permit authorizes the permitee, i think we want to strike the word authorizes and replace it with requires. Okay. Well do that and whats the next one . Page 60, line 19. Supervisor safai page oops, why is this going backward . You would do the same thing, strike authorizes and replace with requires. Supervisor safai so those two areas. So motion to strike the word authorizes on page 14 on line 14, page 58, and strike the word authorizes on page 60, line 19. Moved. Supervisor fewer moved. Supervisor safai without objection, that is ordered. And then, the direction that i gave you guys earlier, in terms of the Good Neighbor policy and the management and security plan, that they must be approved by the director of office of cannabis, in consultation with the local Police Captain and the office of the supervisor, so if you could have that drafted for tomorrow, that would be great. Mr. Givner we will the ordnance cant require the director to consult with the supervisors office, but within her discretion, she can i wanted to get on the record what the intent was, and then, you can draft it legally so that theres no overstep of powers. Okay. Supervisor safai so for the individuals that were talking about commissary spaces, my office is drafting language of commissary locations in retail. Were working out theres an institutional language conflict between the department of Public Health and the planning department, so were in the process of working on that now, and we will infuse into that conversation the idea of of commissary spaces for he hadible hadib hadible edible, well have that conversation and see what we can do. Theres some very strict processes that have to be in place. Its not as easy as saying, this is already used as a bakery, there are zones ordinances in terms of how spaces with used. Its called an accessory use, so zoned for a limited restaurant, and then, you want to come in and do an accessory use, and you want to come in and do a commissary kitchens. Theyre not necessarily in the places you might think intuitively. Theyre not always on neighborhood commercial corridors, and so its something that were tackling, but now that i heard that multiple times as a way to kind of foster this conversation, were happy to infuse thats not going to dealt with this language today in this legislation. The other piece that we have heard about is the idea of deliveries. Theres been a lot of conversation about all of the retail, but we havent spent a lot of time talking about the business of delivery and delivery permits. We have 16 delivery permits. Theres individuals in the industry that are trying to do predictable delivery. We have a i have heard, and i i will speak for myself, generally, i have a problem with there being unlimited amounts or excessive amount of product in a car or in a vehicle. I understand the idea of getting it to the doorstep in a fast manner, but i also understand that you have Security Issues that arise with that. I also understand that from that, there arises the concern for how should i say this delicately . For abuse of the system because if someone is intended to have, and the way that this is predictable delivery works, is youre supposed to have an alfiatifiln of a brick and mortar retail, but from what we have from talking to individuals in the industry, that predictable delivery are going directly to the manufacturers and distributors and cutting out the brick and mortar, so that presents some issues. Well have to come back to that. So what i appropriates is we split the file. Make a motion to send the entire the edited version with the amendments that we made today with recommendation to the board tomorrow. Supervisor fewer yes, i agree. I also concur, that i think that the issue of delivery, we can speak about that at a later date, and and also, just get updated on where state legislation is and blah, blah, blah on that. Supervisor safai right. In terms of w2 employees, labor piece, we just dont have time to daeal with that right now. And then, the last thing we heard from a lot of folks is the concern, 20 amount of ownership, and we said this to a lot of you privately, and ive had conversation with my colleagues, and i know they have with you, addres well. We understand the industry, and we understand theres barriers, but we dont want these licenses to become a commodity. We need to revisit that conversation, so were going to leave the threshold at 20 . Thats why we split the legislative file. This file will remain here and here can continue do hato have conversa about this, but the goal is to be ready for january 1, so splitting the file and sending the file with full recommendation to the board from this body. Without objection thats ordered. Can i clarify that order . Supervisor safai yes. The matter is amended. The matter will be duplicated. One version of that duplicated file will be referred to the board of supervisors meeting at Community Report as amended for tomorrows meeting. Supervisor safai with full recommendation. Clerk and the other portion will remain in committee. Supervisor safai yes, correct. Clerk correct. Supervisor safai any other matters before us today, mr. Clerk . Clerk that completes the agenda. Supervisor safai so moved, and this committee is now closed. Thank you. You. Today, i wanted to kickoff and welcome you to the first every family well forum clapping. compromising is carmen chu currently which this of the family forum we put this event dough went to a lot of Community Meetings and were he and she about families worries and troubles aaron planning for the future and ahsha safai for buying a home and college and retirement and for many of the seniors how to passing on their prompts to their kids.

Madame secretary, will you take the roll . [roll call] and we have a quorum. Well not have closed session today as an announcement and well review or approve the minutes of october 24. Commissioners do i have a motion . So move. Second. There any Public Comment unrelated to the agenda today . Mr. President , can we call for Public Comment on the minutes . Yes, im sorry. Public comment on the minutes. Forgive me. Ok. All in favor aye. Opposed . Ok. Passes. Ok. Public comment unrelated to the agenda. Welcome. My name is steve yetzer and i wanted to speak. Im a resident and native of San Francisco on the issue of privatization of public spaces. I believe that the people of San Francisco have had enough of privatization of Public Resources. The drive in San Francisco to build more Million Dollar condominiums has to end. We have to stop it. Workingclass people are being driven out of San Francisco. They cant afford to live here. Their children cant grow up here and public spaces should be for the public. So we believe that we have to stop the transfer of all Public Resources to private entity, private developers wherever they are and also we have to build working class housing for working people. And the city should do that. Weve had enough evictions, weve had enough workers being told they have to drive two or three hours to get to work. That is destroying San Francisco. And the people of
