Really would encourage the department to really try to devote some new resources into drilling down on the data so that, you know, we are really providing the legislators as much information as we can so that the recommendations and new legislation that they put forward is that balance of these very, very challenging and difficult situations. I would encourage you to try to find some more resources for that. Thank you. I will definitely do that. Commissioner lee, please. Bill, so we have of the 11,000 that submitted the checklist to us, we dont have an idea right now how many are in the category one or two, three, four . That is in the weekly report but the numbers are quite small because it adds up to 3,000. What percentage is category one . I am curious. I dont know the breakdown on the percentage. I am guessing many accident business businesses are in category one. Maybe to manage this program, maybe we should start getting people to say submit your checklist. If you are in category one submit the checklist and you are done. We have had multiple communications and we have been helped out by boma whose members are in that particular category re. It is still a fairly tepid response. There are more out there. I have been asked about this abe program, and walking down commercial street in my neighborhood, i can tell that the businesses have heard about it. They are installing the Automatic Door openers because they have to comply. There is more buzz out there. I am thinking many of the businesses are in compliance or one step away. We need to encourage people to submit. We will double up our effort to reach out to that already compliant category. That will definitely shrink the universe. When we get a better understand how many are infeasible, then we will know what is the compliant sweet spot to get to, so to speak. There also may be an element of the vacant storefront issue in this as well. There definitely is. Trying to understand how m. R. I. Own this building somebody is going to do major renovation when i went it to them, therefore i am not changing it right now. Or reluck tans of the tenant to sign the lease. Exactly. Highlighting those for the benefit of the legislators so they can either give incentives for owners who have vacant storefronts to make the property compliance ready or new tent. We really have the knowledge of where these things are and how big an impact we can have by chiseling out each element of it. I think we are going to be more successful an. Thank you. Public comment on this item . Thank you director of the office of small business. I was just observing the conversation. I want to thank the department odepartmentof building inspectir staff. They are amazing. This is not easy. Our office works very closely, particularly with tom. I want to reiterate we have the Disability Access fund, which we are working with small businesses, and we do work with small Property Owners who are financially challenged in achieving access. That is from in helping the Property Owners comply for those that have limited income and working with the businesses as well. I think it is, you know, we are still dealing with many Property Owners who have had properties for a long time, particularly in the commercial corridors that are still adjusting that they have a responsibility to comply, and i feel this ordinance as challenging as it has been, we need to remember that obligation is currently there both for the Property Owner and the accidents that occupies the space so we get the compliance done so legal liability is removed. Just wanted to say that. In terms of i want to caution on that this requirement could be something that helps keep a property vacant. If a Property Owner is not going to be leasing right away or keeping it off, this is the perfect time to make the remediation. I would encourage that message be given. It obviously makes their property a little more attractive. Just in terms of that messaging. I am happy to answer any questions that you may have. Thank you very much for coming out. No other Public Comment. We need to have a motion on this item. Is there a vote on the item . No, i dont believe so. It was informational. I believe the ordinance has been introduced. You can remember or not you can recommend. It is a mixed decision if they want to memorialize that. It has been heard and considered to move forward. We didnt get any information other than being updated by bill. We are not here to prove or disapprove the extension. I think it is really your choice. We wanted to bring it to your attention so that you could take action on it if you want to support the idea be hired the additional time or you can wait until in january when we will be going through the regular hearing process on this, and then we will bring it back at that time. Thank you. Based on the fact it tells them, you know, out there right now i support the bill to extend the timeframe. If you want a motion that we do support an extension. I would support it. There is a lot of buzz. The department should keep Going Forward and do the outreach and encourage the Property Owners and shopkeepers to submit the checklist so we know what is going on. If somebody would make a motion. I will make a motion and i will support it. Second . Second. I will do a roll call vote. roll call . Thank you. That motion carries manley. Eye carries unanimously.

Welcome to the did you know that many buildings in San Francisco are not bolted to the foundation on todays episode well learn how the option to bolt our foundation in an earthquake. Hi, everybody welcome to another episode of stay safe im the director of earthquake safety in the city and county of San Francisco im joined by a friend matt. Thank you thanks for being with us were in a garage but at the el cap center south of market in San Francisco what weve done a simulated the garage to show you what it is like to make the improvements and reduce the reflexes of earthquake were looking at Foundation Bolts what do they do. The Foundation Bolts are one of the strengthening system they hold the lowest piece of wood onto the foundation that prevents the allows from sliding during an earthquake that is a bolt over the original construction and these are typically put in along the foundation to secure the house to the Foundation One of the things well show you many types of bolts lets go outside and show the vufrdz were outside the epic center in downtown San Francisco well show 3 different types of bolts we have a e poxy anchor. It is a type of anchor that is adhesive and this is a rod well embed both the awe hey that embeds it into the foundation that will flip over a big square washer so it secured the mud sell to the foundation well need to big drill luckily we have peter from the company that will help us drill the first hole. So, now we have the hole drilled ill stick the bolt in and e postoffice box it. That wouldnt be a bad idea but the dust will prevent the e postoffice box from bonding we need to clean the hole out first. So, now we have properly cleaned hole whats the next step. The next step to use e postoffice box 2 consultants that mixes this together and get them into tubes and put a notice he will into the hole and put the e postoffice box slowly and have a hole with e postoffice box. Now it is important to worm or remember when you bolt our own foundation you have to go to 9 department of building inspection and get a permit before you start what should we look at next what i did next bolt. A couple of anchors that expand and we can try to next that will take a hole that hole is drilled slightly larger marathon the anchor size for the e postoffice box to flow around the anchor and at expansion is going into the hole the same dinning room well switch tamet so, now we have the second hole drilled what next. This is the anchor and this one has hard and Steel Threads that cuts their way into the concrete it is a ti ton anchor with the same large square so similar this didnt require e postoffice box. Thats correct you dont needed for the e postoffice box to adhere overnight it will stick more easily. And so, now it is good to go is that it. Thats it. The third anchor is a universal Foundation Plate when you dont have room above our foundation to drill from the top. So, now we have our Foundation Plate and the tightened screw a couple of ways to take care of a foundation whats the best. The best one depends on what your house is like and our contractors experience theyre sometimes considered the cadillac anchor and triplely instead of not witting for the e postoffice box this is essentially to use when you dont have the overhead for the foundation it really depends on the contractor and engineering what they prefer. Talking to a qualified professional and see what. Good afternoon, everyone. Hi, there. [applause] so my name is jackie flin, im the executive director of the a. Philip Randolph Institute, San Francisco. I want to thank everyone for taking the time to gather with us as we prepare for the thanksgiving holiday. Thanksgiving is a time when families reflect on the hard work and sacrifices made throughout the year. Traditionally we celebrate a harvest, one nurtured by our elders, gathered by hard working parents and gathered by people who care. All year we make sacrifices so our children can play, learn, grow grow, and this thursday, enjoy the feast. In San Francisco, we are putting families first. Im humbled to lead an effort in leading the largest turkey giveaway in San Francisco in which 5,500 families in need will receive a turkey. [applause] im honored, supporting the citying across the city. Its an honor to introduce someone who works tirelessly. Shes creating a city where no families and no children are forgotten or left behind. Shes realizing the dream of the city with opportunities for all families to thrive. Please welcome the mayor of the city and county of San Francisco, mayor london breed. [applause] hello i love coming here. Every time i go here, i get more and more excited. Im excited about this community and all the Amazing Things that continue to happen here. And i want to start by thanking a. Philip Randolph Institute for all their incredible work. [applause] thank you. And also a special thank you to the folks at bayview station and all the officers. [applause] our police chief bill scott is here. Our fire chief, Jeanine Nicholson is here. And let me tell you, it does take a village. I know we got today is really about giving. And let me just tell you, it is really a blessing to be a blessing. And i know that in so many ways, we are going to be handing out turkeys here, thanks to foster farms and whole foods, but we also know that many of you who are cooking those turkeys are going to be sharing them with your family members and neighbors and friends. [applause] so i want to take this time to acknowledge and thank the folks who are here volunteering. Your supervisor watson is here as well. [applause] but i also need to pause and explain to all of you why the mayors of san jose and oakland are in the house. [applause] let me explain. See, what had happened was we had a bet and a couple months ago, we had a bet, first it started as the battle of the bay, we are battling for the bay. To clean up the bay, to clean up our city, to love our cities, to show love and respect to our community. And let me tell you, first the bet was between me and oakland mayor libby schaaf. [applause] and then at the last minute, mayor liccardo was like hold on, i want a piece of that. So he joined in. [applause] but guess who won, San Francisco. [applause] but let me explain, mayors. Let me tell you. We had not only the most volunteers, we had the most volunteers from the Bayview Hunters Point Community in the citys history. The bayview showed up and showed out. That we have more volunteers but oakland collected more trash. So they won in the trash collection, because we couldnt find stuff to pick up. [applause] we cleaned up our city. But the fact is, let me explain, let me explain, mayor, let me explain. The fact is we are all one bay area. We are all one community. We work as partners to address some of the most challenging issues that you all know we face around homelessness, around housing affordability, and we know that the only way that we are going to get to a better place is not if we work in isolation but if we come together. And this was an opportunity to come together and have a little fun. [applause] so im wearing my giants, even though they was losing and stuff. I still love them. I still love them. Im a giants fan. I still rep, even when they losing. Im going to still rep the warriors even when they losing. We share the warriors. But them niners though. [applause] so just i am just let me tell you, and im going to let our mayors have a chance to say a few words, but im so happy to be here. I feel the love. I feel the energy. I feel the excitement. And thats what makes this an incredible community. You all make this an incredible community. And as we continue to address some of the challenges, we are here to make better decisions so that future generations who grew up in what we know followed the conditions that existed when we were younger or when you were at the old one, we cant let that continue to happen in our city. And thats why were changing things for the better. [applause] yes. You all know im from o. C. , but i love double rock, i love hunters point, i love this city. And my plan is to continue to work with you all to make it a better place for all of us to grow and to thrive and to be safe and to prosper. So with that, i want to turn the mic over to the mayor from oakland who is going to talk a lot of mess. Oakland mayor sam. [applause] thanksgiving. I cant talk mess on thanksgiving. No, im not putting that on. [laughter] [off mic] to come together. Maybe at the end ill put it on. All right. You know, like london was born and raised in San Francisco, i was born and raised in oakland. [applause] we say in our house, we never ate blueberry muffins, we only ate vita blueberry muffins. Thats why the battle for the bay was a reminder to everyone that, you know, the environment doesnt care whether its in San Francisco or san jose or oakland, right . It doesnt care. We have
