Supervisor yee lets go to roll call. [ roll call ] colleagues, today i am introducing a resolution recognizing the harmful impacts of the institutionalization of the youth of language to refer to formally incarcerated people surgerying all agencies in departments of the city and county of San Francisco to adopted personfirst language. Examples of personfirst language includes, formally incarcerated person, currently incarcerated persons, returning residents, and justice involved person ininstead of convict, fell on and everyday this job reminds me this job as power. As part of the plan the city describes traffic fatalities as occurring during collisions instead of accidents. As settled difference on the surface but important recommend indications. And accident is a responsibility of the individual and the result of a mistake and a system that depends on perfect behavior to produce ideal outcomes. A collision on the other hand is considered through a Public Safety lens and addressed to a comprehensive Public Policy and labels such as fell on, convict, offender parolee assign fault to the individual implicitly accuse them of some moral failure. This language has a culture in which were content to deny employment, housing, healthcare and professional licensing. Today the United States leads the world incarceration locking up a larger share of population 1 5 california residents currently has a criminal record. Our economy depends on the labor of these currently incarcerated people to introduce everything from military equipment to mcdonalds uniforms and safety depends on the thousands of incarcerated people who put their lives on the line to fight last years devastating wildfires. According to the american bar association, our occupational and Business Licenses laws contain over 27,000 restrictions on formally incarcerated people and argues of exclusionary language only adds to the barriers they face. Changing the way we speak about these individuals is far from a cureall for the isle o i will thank you to his leadership, the department of corrections, the wash Ton Department of corrections inside the United States department of justice have all adopted resolutions committing to use people first language. This resolution would not have been possible without the hard work of eric hander son, paula hernandez, jose bernal and jeffrey morris. I want to thank the Reentry Council in which i have the privilege of serving alongside some of the San Francisco most dedicated public servants. The hope the board will adopt and take people convicted. Supervisor peskin. Thank you, madam clerk. Colleagues, today i am introducing a resolution in support of California State Assembly bill 5.

Late last month, supervisor mar and i held a passenger at the Public Safety neighborhood dg workers came out to share struggles making ends meet without a living minimum wage. Healthcare access of employees. During nearly two hour of public testimony, they asked to stand with gig workers by declaring our support for ab5. I hope you will join me in passing this resolution next week and would like to thank my co sponsors, supervisors peskin, and lee in his office who have the first draft of this resolution, id like to thank our labor partners who worked with my office on last months hearing as well as this resolution uf jobs with justice, the labor council, progressive Workers Alliance, the National DomesticWorkers Alliance and gig workers rising and erin for her work on the hearing and this resolution. I also have id like us to end todays meeting in memory a founder of one valencia street beloved and longest restaurants and institutions. It was born october 17th, 1979 in mexico one of more 10 siblings, he put family first from an early stage in the 1950s he made his way to california before arriving in San Francisco. Together with his brothers, chewy, jose and pablo, he will opened mexico lindo a restaurant that highlighted their homemade recipes and in 1968, he bought the building at 546 and moved his family in upstairs and opened his own restaurant. At the time, people thought it was a mistake to open a restaurant on valencia street insisting he would lose everything. This didnt dissuade him and his family who proudly operated it for the last 50 years. He is a true pillar of the community who enjoyed helping others. He fed the hungry and provided shelter to those in need. When he met people looking for work he would find odd jobs to help them out and helped the neighbors secure a grow green c. He was a humble man who never went to school and built his successful Small Business on his own. He became much more than a restaurant offering walls to host local artists and lending support to communities events he passed away may 20th, 2019. He was a loving son, brother, husband, father, grandfather, fatherfather and his four childn manage the restaurant and keep his dream alive. May he rest in peace and power and may his memory be a blessing, the rest i submit. Thank you, supervisor. Thank you, madam clerk. Colleagues. Few months ago in march, supervisor fewer we release aid fivepoint Small Business protection and promotion strategy in front of the old gold spike restaurant on columbus avenue which has long been vacant due to a seismic retro fit and a question able Property Owner who doesnt live in the city and county of San Francisco. A lot has paid out in other publications with regard to what the root causes of vacancies are. The largely, if you read some of those articles, absent of actual Small Business owners voices. Although they do like to quote Real Estate Brokers who think the answer is more formula retail. So we continue to hear from brokers and Property Owners but the escalating concerns from the actual Small Business community are often kicked down the road and since march, my office has been convening real Small Businesses and their owners to hear directly from them and as the hurdles theyve been facing. One of the conclusions were coming to is that one of the chief obstacles is the incredible amount of fees that they have to pay and let me see some of those fees. A 2,000 fee for in respecting toilets, an 800 fee for operating a mobile food facility in addition to hundreds of dollars for the inspection of combustible materials. A 7,000 fee to operate a pawnshop. Thousands of dollars to operate as a tour guide and the list goes on and on. Theyre are actually 200 valid fees that a Small Business might be liable for. Today, im submitting a letter of inquiry to the Planning Department requesting data since january 1st of 2015 on the length of time from application to final approval to open a Small Business and also submitting a letter of inkawartha reto the Controllers Office as to each and every one of those fees that hopefully we collectively can right size. This is actually feeing our Small Businesses to death. Theres no fee as great as the rent being paid from Small Businesses which is precisely why i hope all of you will support for march of 2020 the much discussed vacancy tax that hopefully will charge Property Owners who do not exercise Due Diligence to reexercise the spaces. On other matters, im introducing another infusion of funding for this acquisition and rehab of 937 clay street which is a product of our 2016 Affordable Housing acquisition and rehab bond and proposition c an
