Especially tragic, increasing 59 over three years. With this data, we can better track these crimes, understand whos being impacted, and develop better strategies to address them. Secondly, im proud to be working closely with budget chair fewer on budget reform legislation to improve transparency and engagement at every especially step of the budget process. In my very first board meetings, i held my very first town hall on the eraf budget. I would add our budget process is also a statement of our values. Democracy must be one of our core values. Thats why ive dedicated my first year in office to strengthening our democracy, fighting political corruption to ensure free and Fair Elections and now budget reform. Democracy does not begin or end at the ballot box but should be part of the processes with which we govern ourselves in every facet of our lives. I look forward to working together to expanding our Democratic Values through reform. Thank you. Clerk thank you, supervisor mar. Supervisor peskin . Supervisor peskin thank you, colleagues. Im finally excited to introduce the product of a years worth of work. In 2015, we passed appropriate and reasonable regulations on what are now termed shortterm rentals, but these are regulations that are limited to permitted s. T. R. Listings which dont address the proliferation of 30day rentals. At the heart of our regulations was a desire to protect rent controlled housing which to date has been the ma erto of the citys housing portfolio that as we know is under a lot of pressure and is rapidly disappearing whether at the hands of illegal housing, or others. Most recently, and i believe supervisor mandelman spoke to this earlier, the sonder case on Market Street prompted a renewed interest in how to address this multibillion dollar industry as more and more Developers Seek to capitalize off of whatever essentially quasi hotel operations. The corporate rental legislation that im proposing today these units are essential housing staples for longterm tenants particularly those on fixed incomes. Pursuant to preempting state law, the costa hawkins act, we cannot establish vacancy controls. Ive heard from many tenants in my district and from around the city that concerns that temporary strangers are siphoning through the buildings every few months and the cost of the vacant building is often passed through to the longterm tenants. As supervisor ronen said in a recent hearing, we want to ensure that San Francisco residents stay in San Francisco and we also Want Companies to use hotels to howuse employees temporarily for work. The second piece addresses the new construction of these types of units. Just as our inclusionary housing requirements are triggered by building of of ten unit buildings of ten units or more, this would be triggered by the building of ten or more units, directing the controller to perform a nexus study to gauge appropriate Housing Impact fees. If theres a role for these new types of units in our market rate housing, we can monitor that appropriately. We continue to struggle with a housing crisis that has continued to displaced more and mortenants from their long more and more tenants from their home. I want to thank everyone for their work in getting this ready for introduction. We have an opportunity i think to create reasonable regulations and inform future policy discussions, and i look forward to the input of the Public Interest organizations and all of you colleagues as this goes forward through the legislative process. Also, we have had with regard to the implementation of 5g and legislation that we passed earlier this year to comply with federal preemption as well as some Court Decisions that prohibited cities like San Francisco from exercising discretion in the issuance of permits for wireless facilities. And when i voted for that, i think i said in committee that i was voting for it reluctantly, but i was told th thats what we needed to do to comply with federal regulations. [please stand by] mr. Stewart was a fascinating person born in 1933 in new york, moved to washington, d. C. In the years prior to the second world war. His father back a director of the group of scientists to develop the atom bomb. His mother, on the other hand, florence, headed the Housing Group with postwar housing and on our board was Eleanor Roosevelt who worked with closely with his mother. When dick was old enough, he attended Sidwell Friends School and went on to Queens College as a road scholar, attended harvard law school, followed by a sixmonth tour of duty in the United States infantty with the 33r 33rd division from hawaii where he provided legal advice to soldiers and later he became involved in political organizing for new york mayor John Lindsays campaign, which lead him eventually to become the insurance commissioner of new york. Help had many other roles and later moved to San Francisco, where he got involved in the effort to protect San Franciscos waterfront from Inappropriate Development and he played a key role in the pair of ballot measure campaigns in 2013 and 201 2014 known as nowall oe waterfront where voters objected an 83 decision o on this boardf supervisors and he is survived by his wife barbara and my condolences to barbra stewart. I was truly honoured to know him and hear his tales of new york and so much more. Finally, i would like to ajourn in the meeting of my friend, Daphne Alexander dorman who took her live tragically on octobe october 11th. She lived in pennsylvania, a sibling, teacher, a boisterous performer at renaissance fairs and she did a stint on tv as a host at qcv and moved to the bay area in her 30s and five years ago she came out transitioning into the person she was, becoming daphne. She was vi va vi yorkvacious ans performer, comedian and will forever be immortalized in her back and forth banter in dave shapel in his recent Comedy Centre at the punchline comedy club. I had the opportunity i think supervisor hainey was there that newt. Night. She is survived by her sister who is going through tremendous mourning. There are efforts to create a trust fund for her 6yearold daughter so if you would like to be kept in the loop, please contact me or my staff. Sorry about that and the rest and there is more, madam clerk and i will submit. Thank you, supervisor. Supervisor safaie. I just will be brief and ill say a few words about adding on to supervisors hainys request. I have insight as it comes to the trash can and locations, but the general public just, some of the things dont make sense. People wonder where theres locations and where trash cans are not located, why they cant get more trash cans, so i think having the hearing will allow public works to come in and shed some light. Well talk about where big bellies have been placed and where they havent been placed and how neighbor associations or Community Benefit districts can get access and how they spread them and theyve seen to be an effective tool. So i think thats an important conversation to have and then theres also some businesses that had access to traffi trashs for years in the course of the last five or ten dont have those and people became accustomed to those. So its important to have that overall conversation. Ecology will be there and public works and we might want to invite Public Health because i know in my neighborhood, some people dont have trash accounts didnt theyll use public trash cans as their way of getting rid of reffuse. Thats businesses and private individuals. Thats one. Two, supervisor p earningeskin,e add me to the hear on 5g. We cant have direct conversations because were on the same committee because we had some conversations from individuals that are here today and talked about making a commitment to having a hearing on that to revisit some of the decisions that had been made in terms of the location. I think its an important conversation to have. How can they be located and the process by which i think thats and important conversation to have and i know well hear from the public today so add me as a cosponsor. The rest i submit, madam clerk. Supervisor stephanie . Mr. President , that concludes the introduction of new business. Madam clerk, to Public Comments. Its time to hear Public Comment and you may address the supervisors for up to two minutes in. Subject matter jurisdiction of the board and you can comment on the minutes and comment on item 25. But my advice is that you not comment on the updates on the progress and implementation, status of the United States department of justice, recommendations regarding the reforms within the Police Department. It will be part of my job to interrupt you as that Public Comment was fulfilled. If you would like to use the overhead projecting, state sfg tv and you can utilize it. Remove the document when you would like the screen to return to live coverage of the meeting. Ok, go ahead. Im back again. Im pau paulette brown. I have a picture of former gavin newsome, where he says i know who killed their son, the police know who killed their son but with no evidence and witnesses. How do we change the system so we can get witnesses to come forth . And the other thing, i go to the Police Commission every wednesday and i talk about this same thing, about our children being murdered on the street. And i have nothing we table about Police Killing our children, but we dont put enough emphasis on Community Violence, also and i think there should be more emphasis on our children killing each other. I also talk with megan rore of the Police Department and they were talking about getting a placard for my son. Ive been here for 14 years and i think if the estimation is out there, and our kids posters are put up, if the perpetrators see their victim that they murdered, it will make them think twice before they murder again. You know, there are several, several unsolved homicide of people of colour and mainly African American young men. And i think that we who put more emphasis on this Community Violence so mothers like myself can heal. I go through trauma everyday. I have children left that i worry about. I have grandchildren, seven grandchildren that i worry about. And two on the way. I grieve for my son. He was 17 years old shot down because he was helping someone else, helping neighbors down the street. I live in district 5, he was born there and he died there. And nothing has been done about my son. The community, they helped but they can only do so much. I put these posters up and sometimes i dont see people want this little black face up on the pole but my son was my son and my son was a little white boy with blond hair and blue eyes, i dont think i would be going through this, not like what ive been doing for the last 14 years. We need justice for our murdered children and get us a bench out there or something to look at something left of our children. We need this done. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Good afternoon, supervisors. George wooding, sfsn and you want to thank the supervisors for postponing the vote on g5. I also want to say faster is not always better. Sf will have to install hundreds, if not thousands of new antennas to make 5g work. 5g frequency has a much shorter frequency range than g4. Per the new dpw amendments, 190 19090, many telephone polls will have up to four, 5g antennas and cell phone towers can be six feet from home. 133 is an overreach of San Franciscos oversight of telecommunications. The ruling accelerated the development of antennas in the im sorry, the deployment of antennas in the public rightofway. San francisco will be helplessly in this oversight of 5g antennas, requiring only a minimua rateof way. These cell phone towers can be batched so dozens could be approved at once in a mild radius. Many cities have decided not to use 5g antennas as tests have shown that the 5g frequents could be harmful. As we are doing, please review current studies and examine fiber optics. Im mark ruger, taxi driver. The city has a long history of letting the taxis history down didnt let me give you one example. In 2011, when uber was operating an illegal limousin service and lytt didnt exist, the mta shot down a staff proposal for a universal taxi app. We still dont have that app. I bring this up as one example, to point out that medallion purchasers are the victims not only of unforeseen circumstances but of bad policy decisions, incidentally which the mta profited handsomely from. Medallion Sales Program netted them according to their own statements, 63 million. Reimbursed these medallion holders. You see them coming here week after week after week and im sure you understand their desperation . Dont let them down. This is the right thing to do. Thank you. The only reason im here, i am driving 33 years and i put 1. 5 million on this leg. Dont you think thats enough . You tell me. 33 years, 200 miles a day and more than 1. 5 miles. Come on, guys, wake up. I get sick and tired. I want to leave. Board of supervisors, if you buy your medallion didnt didnt nobodand nobody wantsto buy, thn didnt pay me back. Do i die behind this cab . If i die, you guys are responsible. City and you guys are responsible. Im here fui need more than two. What should i do . How many more years i should drive . Until you carry my dead body to cemetery and then youll be happy . What will happ happen to my fam . Two weeks ago cab driver happened and what happened . He didnt get shit from you guys. Shit. He has a child back home. We dont get nothing. The only thing on my right, im not digging for my money. Its my right. Thank you. Thank you. Next speaker. Hello, im evelyn engle and im here to speak on behalf of the San FranciscoTaxi Workers Alliance to say that we support these medallion holders who come here week after week and describe their hardship asking or the city to buy back the medallions and we support them 100 . I want to add a little bit of why the city owes this to the taxi drivers. Back in 2012, a Company Called sidecar launched in february of 2012, they were the First Company that used individual people to drive their own personal cars without any regulation. Lyft launched in may of 2012. Uber, at the time, was using a licensed limo vehicles, exclusively. The cpuc did not launch a rule making until december of 2012. San francisco allowed can you speak directly into the microphone. Nine or ten or 11 months to pass without an effort to regulate these vehicles. And the result of that has been the cpu stepped in and they didnt march in and snatch regulation out of San Franciscos hands. They were basically handed it on a silver platter by inaction, which i believe was deliberate. And in the middle of that critical year, on august 1st, 2012, the medallion Sales Program was made permanent resulting in it was doomed to fail. So im asking you to Pay Attention to what you have up leashed, which is unfettered growth of ube recollections and lytt and human suffering for the people that believed in San Francisco and bought a medallion, merely for the right to operate a taxi cab. Thank you. Next speaker, thank you. They knew they were lying and they almost got kavanaugh who is completely innocent. This is not right. Under the old testament. You have had two or three witnesses and now we know kristine blazeyford is no good because you learn what her character was like in high school, sleeping around with all of the boys and kavanaugh got straight a as and didnt party. He was virgin and you stay married until you die, one woman, thats what god says and they almos almost got rid of th. Three would be stoned to death. Jesus said, its written in your law that the testimony of two mep imen is true, my father beas witness and referring to dut deuterotomy17. You should read the bible, homosexually is a shame and youre promoting it. Thank you, next speaker. Hi. We are back again. Im one that purchased the taxi medallion and we keep coming back and back and we are asking for our money back because theres to business. No business. The sfmta has to be responsible for that and they didnt prohibit us. So basically, guys, believe me, if you drive in the city, you dont drive but we drive. Friday and saturday nights, theres to people on the streets. Where are all of these people . I dont understand. I dont know if youre aware of that, the young generation, they dont go out like before and restaurants are closing down and taxis dont make money and i think uber and lyft, they dont make money but the amount we pay for the medallions, right, so they dont care. They can quit any time they want but we cannot quit. Because if we dont pay our medallions we go for foreclosure and our Credit History will be damaged for seven years. Thats why, guys, we keep coming back and back and please do something about it. Push sfmta to keep their promises. Its so simple. Just give us the money we put and then let sfmta figure out what to do with the medallions. Its so simple. Thank you. Next speaker. I started as a free man and got trapped into buying this medallion because it was the only way to drive my own car. The Pilot Program fails, i can take back my medallion and get my money back. Now after no medallion sold, i work as a slave. Each of them
