To adequately defend brandon or to bring him home. I appreciate the partnership and the assistance that we have received from speaker pelosis office and senators harris and finestein and i want to be clear that its insufficient and we are running out of time. We need to bring brandon home. We need to ensure that he receives adequate medical care, care that we here can give him. Weve added to the record to this file a letter from the San FranciscoHealth Commission supporting this request. And recognizing brandons mother, louise lee, has been a dedicated staff member at the department of Public Health for the last 40 years. Alongside supervisor haney we have been advocating on this issue for over a month. In that month, Community Members have come together to raise funds and to send a delegation to the philippines to visit brandon, including supervisor haney and to organize an incredible breadth of grassr509s advocacy, fueled by hope, anger and love. In that month we havent seen enough from our federal government or national media. In addition to security for brandon, and an investigation, with this resolution we are calling on congress to end u. S. Military aid to dutertes regime until the extradition killings and and to provide immediate support to bring brandon back to San Francisco, away from his assailants and that he can receive the medical care that he needs and deserve. We call on the conscience of this country to stop subsidizing abuses and violence that have now hit so close to home. So thank you again, everyone, for turning out and not just this afternoon, but so often and in such a powerful way over the past month. And, colleagues, thank you so much for your support on this. President yee okay, supervisor safai . I will be brief and i appreciate the speakers who came out today and thank you to the leadership from haney on this. And i think that one of the things to underscore is that a threat to democracy anywhere is a threat to democracy everywhere. And this young man being a u. S. Citizen and being an environmental advocate and being one that wants to fight for justice around the world in his country of, you know, where his mother is from and family is from, i think that its an important thing. And so i want to thank you to all of the advocates who came out here today and say that we stand firmly shoulde shouldertoshoulder with him and we want to see the speedy return of brandon to the United States. So thank you for all of your hard work on this. President yee supervisor stefani . Thank you, president yee. I want to thank my colleagues for their passion and relentless courage to speak out and to thank all of those who came out. Im so sorry for what youre going through. And i wanted to be added. President yee supervisor brown . Yes, thank you. Its pretty powerful when you come out and you speak about it, friends, family, and advocates. And i would like to also be added to item number 23. Thank you. President yee supervisor haney. Thank you, president yee. I want to thank supervisor mar for your leadership, as well as your staff, edward wright, for being there for brandon and his family from the beginning. And for preparing this resolution. Its been, you know, humbling to partner with you as well as brandons friends and family who are here. I want to thank them. I want to thank all of the organizations. I know that brandon was very much a part of San Francisco and was raised in and politicized in many of the organizations that are here. The malai movement, and c. P. A. And the league of filipino students. I want to thank you all for fighting for brandon. When i visited him and his family i was able to share with him that you are all fighting for him, that you are sending your love and your solidarity. And he was able to mouth back, thank you. So i wanted to be able to share that with all of you. And i know that he knows that youre fatin fighting for him. His strength is incredible. I cant imagine the level of resilience and strength that it takes to survive being shot four times, three bullets that are still in his body. Eight cardiac arrests. And he will not give up. And so i know that this conversation and its in this spirit that he sai is leading ho continue to fight. And i know that you are all fighting for him. What we do know is that the work that were doing to raise attention and to put this on the agenda of our federal representatives and the u. S. Embassy is making a difference. They are responding. They werent before, but they are now. But as supervisor mar said, theres so much more that they can do and we finally got a response related to how they can do a humanitarian evacuateion and they said something about providing a loan to the family and so this is information that wasnt previously provided. It should have been provided immediately to the family. And because of the attention theyre now responding. Brandon represents the best of San Francisco. He his Cross Cultural and Cross National solidarity represents a tradition and a history and a legacy in this city that i think that we should all be very proud of. And the last thing that i want to say is that we during our time in the philippines we were able to meet with many of brandons comrades and his colleagues, indigenous leaders, Leaders Within manila and in all of them they shared with us that what happened to brandon should not be viewed as an isolated and random incident. But its part of a campaign of targeting people who are standing up for environmental rights and for human rights across the philippines. And i think that brandon would want us to connect with what happened to him with what is happening with so many people, especially poor people, especially Indigenous People in the philippines. And to say that that their stories and their experiences are not going to be silenced and that to the extent that our government is quiet about this, were going to be louder, were going to demand that we no longer be complicit by funding such mass murder and political assassination that now has impacted one of our own in brandon lee. So thank you all for your leadership with the passing of this resolution and we have a lot more work to do to make sure that brandon comes home safely and that this campaign of terror and murder that the Philippine Government has been responsible for that we do everything that we can to end it. Thank you for being here. President yee supervisor mandelman. 5d aadd me as a cosponsor. President yee supervisor .

On behalf of supervisor peskin for the late jerry crawly, and on behalf of president yee, for the late Lawrence Joseph fonk and on behalf of supervisor brown for the late marcia marcela harvey. President yee colleagues that is the end of our agenda. Madam clerk, any other further business before us today . Clerk that concludes our business for today. President yee okay, thank you. We are adjourned. I went through a lot of struggles in my life, and i am blessed to be part of this. I am familiar with what people are going through to relate and empathy and compassion to their struggle so they can see i came out of the struggle, it gives them hope to come up and do something positive. I am a community ambassador. We work a lot with homeless, visitors, a lot of people in the area. What i like doing is posting up at hotspots to let people see visibility. They ask you questions, ask you directions, they might have a question about what services are available. Checking in, you guys. Wellness check. We walk by to see any individual, you know may be sitting on the sidewalk, we make sure they are okay, alive. You never know. Somebody might walk by and they are laying there for hours. You never know if they are alive. We let them know we are in the area and we are here to promote safety, and if they have somebody that is, you know, hanging around that they dont want to call the police on, they dont have to call the police. They can call us. We can direct them to the services they might need. We do the three one one to keep the city neighborhoods clean. There are people dumping, waste on the ground and needles on the ground. It is unsafe for children and adults to commute through the streets. When we see them we take a picture dispatch to 311. They give us a tracking number and they come later on to pick it up. We take pride. When we come back later in the day and we see the loose trash or debris is picked up it makes you feel good about what you are doing. It makes you feel did about escorting kids and having them feel safe walking to the play area and back. The stuff we do as ambassadors makes us feel proud to help keep the city clean, helping the residents. You can see the community ambassadors. I used to be on the streets. I didnt think i could become a community ambassador. It was too far out there for me to grab, you know. Doing this job makes me feel good. Because i came from where a lot of them are, homeless and on the street, i feel like i can give them hope because i was once there. I am not afraid to tell them i used to be here. I used to be like this, you know. I have compassion for people that are on the streets like the homeless and people that are caught up with their addiction because now, i feel like i can give them hope. It reminds you every day of where i used to be and where i am at now.

Supervisor peskin on behalf of the department of the environment, mr. Sheehan, the floor is yours. Thank you, supervisors. Charles she an, policy and Public Affairs manager for the San Francisco department of the environment. Momentarily im going to invite my colleague, Barrie Hooper to give you a short presentation about this ordinance. I do want to take some time and thank the sfpuc for their assistance as well as the Mayors Office, its been a collaborative effort to get to this point. It will be a partnership as well for implementation. And i do expect that mike and john will be joining us shortly from the sfpuc. So, without further adieu, im going to invite Barrie Hooper up here for the presentation. Supervisor peskin i would like to welcome Committee Member and vicechair supervisor safai and better late than never, john. Thank you, supervisor peskin. My name is Barrie Hooper. Im with the department of environment and ill be talking today about the proposed renewable electricity requirements. For context, San Francisco has full goals set by our board of supervisors for reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions through ultimately getting to zero emissions by 2050. Of course, weve been making great progress cutting emissions 36 thus far compared to 1990 in the context of more than doubling the size of our economy and about a 20 growth in population. Our remaining emissions today really boil down to the operation of our buildings, the production of waste, and transportation within the building sector, natural gas is the biggest source of emissions. If we lock at municipal buildings in particular, the entirety of emissions from municipal buildings come from the combustion of natural gas directly or for the provision district c. And were approaching that point in the private sector as well as we supply cleaner and cleaner electricity as a community to our commercial buildings, natural gas is not getting cleaner and so were talking about today is really getting to the end point of eliminating those emissions ultimately from the electricity use in commercial buildings. This is not yet addressed the commissions from a gas side. And the context for this is our goal of getting to zero emissions city wide by 2050. Also, ensuring that our newly constructed buildings have zero emissions no later than 2030. And while theres a lot of deck cal detaitechnical. We need to supply them with renewable electricity and the appliances need to use that renewable electricity. They need to use electricity rather than gas. Today well focus on the renewable Electricity Supply but id like to take a moment to talk about how we are addressing efficiency and the good news. In 2011, this body adopted an ordinance requiring commercial building owners to track and publicly disclose an annual basis, how much energy they use, and the ideas of the first step to improving efficiency would be measuring what we expect folks to manage. Recently this year, this body also extended that requirement for benchmarking or tracking and disclosing energy use to large multifamily buildings of 52,000 square feet and larger. Just taking a moment to look at the trends, weve seen since those ordinances were adopted, im sorry that for ledge ability but the story is positive here. Over the seven year period depicted in all four of these graphs, Gross Energy Consumption in the commercial sector is scoudown11 and our economy hasn growing considerably. Bottomleft yellow line depicts growth in total employment. More jobs in the city. Our office value is depicted on the upper right graft so were not trading the economy for healthy im sorry, the environment for healthy economy, were getting both. And the bottomright line, the purple represents the Gross Energy Consumption of commercial buildings down about 11 . So todays ordinance is really proposing to build upon that platform so were emphasizing efficiency through those existing requirements and im going to take you through this table for a moment. So each of the columns represents a subset of different requirements just a limited very straight forward requirement for multi family of only tracking energy use. For commercial buildings theres a differentiation between large and smaller building and were asked to have more sophisticated requirements for the largest buildings with you we require an energy audit so you would know how much energy you are using overtime and where is the opportunity for savings. And the idea is to connect the building overrer with rebates and financing. Todays ordinance proposed ordinance, addresses renewable electricity just for the largest commercial buildings where we think its very straight forward matter for them. And the proposal is very simple. Its to require that they purchase 100 renewable electricity on the basis that such renewable electricity is now available at a very competitive rate. Its available without requiring any technical changes to the building. This is really a change on the bill. You could obtain renewable electricity as well by installing on site Generation Facility but theres a straight forward way to get there without taking extra action. The proposal would effect 9 of our total commercial buildings and this is looking just at buildings that are exclusively for commercial use and those 9 of our buildings in San Francisco are consuming 73 of the electricity thats consumed by the commercial sector that totals around 150,000 tons of co2 emissions per year to provide them with electricity. What were encouraging is a threepart phase in starting with the largest buildings which the greatest energy use and also the best resourced and they were a small number and phasing in with buildings of 500,000 fair and larger starting in 2022 stepping down to 2024 to buildings of 250,000 and larger and ultimately in 2030, stepping down to buildings of 50,000 squarely feet and larger and the 2030 is concurrent with our existing goal of ensuring that anyone has access to 200 renewable access by 2030 so the difference is thats a goal and this is a proposed codification of mandatory transition to renewable electricity and the phasein is developed directly from the recommendations of a partners at the sfpuc and clean power sf that this is the scale at which they would have time to develop and cause construction of the resources me to provide the renewable electricity.
