Mar. The rest i submit. Clerk thank you, supervisor fewer. Supervisor mandelman. Thank you, madam clerk. Harvey milk said, every gay person must come out as difficult as it is, you must tell your immediate family, you must tell your relatives and friends if they are your friends. You must tell the people you work with, you must tell the people in the stores you shop in. When they realize that we are their children that we are in deed everywhere every myth, lie will be destroyed once and all and when you do you will feel so much better. Colleagues, this friday is the 31st annual National Coming out date which marks the anniversary of the National March on washington for lesbian and gray rights. Its important and its also as harvey milk new important. If we arent out, we arent seeing, we dont count and we arent counted. Thats why i am introducing a request for a hearing on the citys fiscal year 20182019 Sexual Orientation and gender identity reports. Passed by the board of supervisors in 2016 requires departments and contractors providing health and social services to seek, collect and analyze data on the Sexual Orientation and gender identity of the clients they serve and to provide annual reports on that data at the end of each fiscal year. Lgbtq people have largely been ignored in the collection of demographic information by state local and federal governments for decades. This lack of data has led organizations including the center for dataen ovation to advocate for data to be collected at all levels of government to help address Service Disparities that negatively impact the lgbtq community. In april, i held a hearing on the first annual reports which covered fiscal year 2018 as well as 20182019. This gave us a look at disparity and access to essential services for lgbtq people and identifying challenge to Data Collection faced by a number of city departments. Although the initial results in mixed the first round of reports showed that unless programs are designed to specifically serve lgbtq people, they will not serve lgbtq people. They make up 30 of our homeless population, according to 20172018, only 17 of clients assess for coordinated entry identify as lgbtq. Similarly only 6 of clients receiving Public Services to the Mayors Office of housing come Community Development identify as lgbtq and 2 are trans or nine binary despite 12 of our citys identifying agency lgbtq. We learned that several departments struggled to collect soji data. I look forward to working with the office of transgender initiatives and participating city departments to use this to review progress made toward improving Data Collection and Service Outcomes for ledge lgbtq people in the 20182019 fiscal year. Today i am also introducing a resolution in support of tipping points all in Campaign Launched in july. Tipping point has been a Strong Partner in the citys efforts to address homelessness, funding the implementation of a new Behavioral Health bed tracking tool and committing 3 million to create a 15bed behavioural bed respite center. Its a Public Education and Engagement Campaign that seeks to build support for Supportive Housing and services and every San Francisco district. Many san franciscans want to be part of solving homelessness and all in aims to galvanized everyday san franciscans to secure homes for people experiencing homelessness throughout the city. Tipping points launched all in with its First Community roundtable. Im declaring a state of emergency for the emergency firefighting water system to protect all neighborhoods in the event of a major earthquake and fire. The resolution urges the city to create a comprehensive plan including three key points. First to expand the emergency firefighting wire system High Pressure water pipelines dedicated for firefighting to all unprotected neighborhoods. To create an interim protections within three years by increasing the emergency firefighting capacity in all neighborhoods that are unprotected by High Pressure firefighting water pipelines. And thirdly, to strengthen public oversight and accountability by requiring an annual consolidated report to be presented to the board of supervisors on the status of the emergency firefighting water assistance preparedness for a major earthquake and fire. Since the earthquake 30 years ago, the city has taken many important steps to protect residents in our city from the next big one including widespreawideseismic retro fit d engage Community Members in Disaster Preparedness. One critical area of Disaster Preparedness thats not been adequately addressed is the threat of fires following a major earthquake. The even more devastating 1906 earthquake caused 3,000 deaths and destruction of 80 of our city due to fires following the earthquake. Following the 1906 earthquake, the city took the important step of building a High PressureEmergency Water supply system dedicated for firefighting which is independent from our Drinking Water supply system. This system is defined to furnishish large amounts of water for firefighting purposes and contains special features to increase reliability in the event of an earthquake. The emergency firefighting water system was built over 100 years ago when most of San Franciscos population lived in the northeast portion of the city. As a result, the network High Pressure water pipelines covers the North Eastern part of the city. Today, onethird of the city is not protected by the emergency firefighting water system. Most of the citys residential neighborhoods on the west side and in the southeast remain unprotected and are vulnerable to widespread fires, loss of life and property destruction following a major earthquake. We are all well aware that another major earthquake will impact our city in the near future. And were just reminded that by the earthquake of saturday morning. The u. S. Geological society estimates a 72 likelihood of a major earthquake before 2043 and the usgs warns the pace of large earthquakes will increase due to gough owgeo logicals so these ws along with the tent 30th annivey is a wakeup call. This resolution will bring greater attention and to elevate the priority of the urgent issues here at city hall and throughout the city. I want to thank my co sponsors, board president s and supervisors fewer and safai as well as many neighborhood leaders who have provided invaluable input. Secondly, ive asked the City Attorney to prepare a Charter Amendment for placement on the november 2020 ballot that will prohibit the mayor from appointing an individual who is a declared candidate for an elected position to a having say for that position and prohibit individuals to positions from running in an election for that position within 90 days of their appointment. The rates to represent district 4 last year was the first open election in the sunset in 13 years. Part of the reason why i ran for supervisor was because of my strong believe that we the people deserve to chose our representatives in free and Fair Elections. Its also why i made strengthening our democracy an early priority in Office Offering two ordinances to expand Public Financing and putting prop f on the ballot to address money and politics and political corruption. Our efforts to strengthen our democracy are weakened when democracy itself is ignored. Its plainly undemocratic and wrong to appoint a candidate, any candidate to the office that theyre running for weeks before a contested election. In the words of the aclu, appointments like these are fundamentally undemocratic and favor candidates who have establishment support as opposed to allowing the process to run its course and let Voters Decide in an even playing field. In the case of the District Attorneys Office this has continued uninterrupted for a century. The 13 years it took for my district to have an open election was too long. That we have been prevented from an open, free and Fair Election for our District Attorney after 110 years of unbroken inkum benn see. With my Charter Amendments it would be. We, who are democratically elected to serve the people need to trust the people to decide for themselves who is best suited to represent them. I hope that as we Work Together to bring this Charter Amendment forward, in iron out details, we will. Thank you. The rest i submit. Clerk thank you, supervisor. Supervisor peskin. Submit. Thank you. Supervisor ronen. Thank you. Colleagues, today im introducing legislation to initiate a landmark designation for 7070woleey. Which unanimous resolution the board of supervisors declared the Garden District and explicitly called out the University Nursery greenhouses as one of the very few remaining physical markers of the historic role in flora culture. Immigrantowned and operated businesses that produced flowers to supply retail flourists flors forecast i lived there for several years and along with my former neighbors. Im proud of this unique history of San Franciscos flowergrowing district. The University Mound nursery and the remaining historic grown houses are a focal point of this cultural landscape. Initially, this request for landmark designation was proposed by members of the grassroots group, friends of 7070woolsley. An al analysis was prepared and documentation compiled and applications submitted to the sf Planning Department. Preservation staff and the Planning Department analyzed the nomination and concurred with Historic Resource evaluation that the property is significant and as well as meeting three of the four priorities for landmarking including the need to encourage designation and goughgraph i cannily under represented areas like the portala and submitted it to the Historic Preservation commission which hpc would district staff to add it. That would have been essentially the next step to flush out the analysis hold public hearings and who are charged with making the final designation about local landmarks. I was shocked when i listened to the recording of the h. P. C. Hearings. First, each commissioner mentioned theyve been contacted by the Mayors Office on behalf of the property owner. And u matily they declined the staff recommendation to add this project to the work plan. So i feel that i have no choice but to respond to this heavy handed hack tick and i oppose housing on the site. The hpc encourage a false choice between landmarking and housing and the sponsor and friends have at times set into that. But it is absolutely untrue. Landmarking will not preclude housing from being built and i will work with the developer and the community to find that solution. But in the meantime, i would like the Planning Department to properly and without improper corrupt influence analyze the historic merit of the property. Thank you, supervisor. I just want to be added to supervisor fewers legislation regarding the two bedrooms for teacher housing. We werent able to let her know before introduction. Thank you. Mr. President , that concludes the introduction of new business. Supervisor yee thank you, madam clerk. Lets go straight into Public Comment. The public may address the board for up to two minutes each on subject matter jurisdiction items within the hands of the board. You may speak for up to two minutes on the Board Meeting minutes. Items 3234 did not go through committee as you already know, items previously heard in committee that were subject to Public Comment may not be heard again today. Display document on the overhead projector, please, just put your document under the projector and remove it and when you would like the coverage to return to live coverage of the meeting. The president believes there might be a coup in the white house and ive asked people to get the podcast of yesterdays broadcast. Phillip mud and brandon and other former clapper directors of the c. I. A. Have made very threatening statements and i am praying the marines will execute them. These are epic times, ladies and gentlemen. Its hard to cram two hours into two minutes. I made a mistake at san jose, supervisors, we only got one minute a couple months ago and i said i was counting how many words and the bird landed on me and that was not true. Because i tried an hour into 60 seconds i made a mistake. If theres anyone out there watching that live, pray for me that god will help me in jesus name. Now what really happened was that i was praying after i counted how many words elijah had spoken and i was just pondering, you know, what he said and how god told him to a joint jesus to be king over israel and other things and i wrapped my head in the green flanel cotton shirt and a bird landed on my head it quacked and it flew off. Its interesting because it says here in second kings that the house they have their master may avenge the blood of my servants the prophets and the blood of all the ser visits of the lord for the whole house shall perish and i will cut off him that pissed against the wall and him that shut up and left in israel and i will make the house like the house of son the nebat and like the house of the son. And the dogs shall eat jess a bell. Supervisor yee next speaker. If you we need to keep him out of the chamber if he is going to behave that way. Next speaker, come on up. Unto the lord said peace. I dont understand what just happened. He has got it. Good afternoon, im peter war field. Library users association. And in an action of extraordinary arrogance and difference to Patrons Service and the San FranciscoPublic Library last month stopped making stopped the mailing of printed notices to patrons about activity on their accounts. That means the library quit a core function sending people notices of overdue, sending people notices that books are available. This was done with no public discussion or approval bit Library Commission and no advance notice to the public. There was nothing posted for the public at library locations. Instead, there was a single letter to recipients of printed notices announcing this as a done deal. And that notice didnt even mention that there are alternatives if folks want them and that would include email and telephone notifications. That will hurt a lot of people who dont have easy access to a computer and dont have email and who dont have a telephone or dont want notices in that way. What about language barriers . If you get a notice in english, by mail, you can take it to a Family Member or friend and can them what its about. There are serious issues of privacy. People being exposed to privacy breaches and the exploitation that that involves through the internet. Through email and phone notification. Its a reduction in Service Despite the fact that the librarys income from you allocations have gone up and up and up every year and theyre now at 160 million. We ask one or more of you to requesrequest thequestion the ls matter and they not degrade service with no due process and no public process ahead of time. Thank you. Good afternoon, supervisors. Nick. When a patron phones the library trying to find a book, the usual practice is for the librarian to set aside the book would a hold to be picked up at a branch. When the book has been retrieved, the library mails a notice. Without warning or notice of the impact of a change in this policy, the library has eliminated the mail notice. It bars the use of the library by 100,000 San Franciscos. Because of the damage this illconceived policy change inflicts on San Franciscos most vulnerable, this policy must be changed and restored to its longstanding Viable Service level. The Digital Divide is a life and thriving in San Francisco. Thanks to the mismanagement of the San FranciscoPublic Library. There are more than 100,000 san franciscans who dont have Internet Access in their homes. I am one them. A couple of weeks ago, i received an unsigned letter on the San Francisco
