Jennifer is great. Ive been watching her and shes my neighbor. A lot of people, william, who couldnt be here. And anybody who could serve, i would love it, with all of the qualified people. But if i could have that chance, i would be more than happy to give of myself to do this work. Anybody have any questions . Im so nervous. [ laughter ] youre all do such a great job. No reason to be nervous. Are there any questions . No, it was perfect, thank you so much. And next is charelle jackson. I know its just passed thanksgiving so happy thanksgiving. Ive been doing any soulfood cooking. I have a fasters degree in political science, Public Policy and i have a bachelors degree in psych and sociology and i work for connor house, a nonprofit organization. We serve Mental Health and Substance Abuse as well as supportive housing, as well as i work on the health and Safety Committee and i work on the Budget Committee for connor house. And so im here today to get a chance to serve on the committee for our city, our home. And i think its really important to serve on a committee thats doing a lot and i think that what i have to offer, day in and day out, services the people that i do service, it means so much to me. I think were serving them in so many ways and to be quite honest, when i see the sort of situations theyre in and what i can do, i can do much more at a larger capacity by sitting in a seat. And i see those peach day and i know their storie stories. I know i can be a voice. Thats why im here today. I know you have the information about my background but what im here to talk about is what i can do for them and i know i can make an impact and i know im serious and i hope you can see that, as well, so thank you so much and if you have any questions. Any questions . No. Thank you so much. Appreciate this. And then Julie Ledbetter was unable to make it but sent a letter to the committee. And so i will now open up this item for Public Comment. If you would like to speak on any of the items, please line up to your right. Good morning. Im with the Community Housing partnership and i just want to point out that it would be an incredible misstep to not appoint both jenny and julie. Ive had the pleasure of working with them for decades now and i find their steeped in the issues of homelessness and also have an incredible compassion and a great moral compass when it comes to these issue. They have both workd with organizations that really understand the systems around Homeless Services and are very, very bright, passionate, incredible people that need to be at the table. Jennifer, in particular, because of the constituency, she represents, she works with homeless folks on streets and in the shelters and the organizations approach is about listening to them and having them be a part of the leadership and part of the decisionmaking and so for that reason alone, i think its important to have her have a seat here, but i just have no reservations. As a matter of fact, highly, highly recommend both jennifer and julie and i think that they would be tremendous, tremendous assets. Thank you. Thank you, next speaker. Good morning. Im mary kay representing compass family. Were so grateful to jenny for her partnership. Shes a phenomenal leader. I did want to say how instrumental her leadership is in moving policy, increasing resources and improving systems to a better place for everybody, in particular for marginalized communities. Jennifers advocacy is so social to moving this to a place where families can get in the door and get immediate access to shelter when people are pregnant and changing those policies and so we highly endorse jenny for this appointment. Thank you. Im brian edwards. That was so worth it to watch jenny speak about herself. I wanted to run up here and go, no, you dont have to do that. Theres probably no one ive learned more from about San Francisco and how it actually works than jenny. Theres no one who has been more patient and better about making sense of that and ive seen how she moves policy through city hall. Ive seen how she crafts policy and how she can build coalitions and i cant think of anyone better. It could be a travesty and you didnt appoint jenny to this. Theres a couple of Homeless People in San Francisco who have stuff going on but they wanted to speak on jennys behalf. Shes jenny fin freidenbach, appoint this woman. [ laughter ] im here because of jennifer. I mean, honestly. When i heard this was happening this morning, i wanted to be here because i cant imagine this moving forward without her seated as one of the members of this committee. You know youre in the presence of someone youll learn from and spending time around you, you gain experience and knowledge and patience and its been great having the opportunity to work with her. It really has. I know that she is absolutely the right person for this. If you really want the best result, the best outcome and we all do, then she must be on this committee. So i know youre going to do the right thing and thank you for your time and ill see you soon. Hi supervisors. Im sam lu. I was the Campaign Manager for our home prophecy and ive loving this love fest for jenny. We love you so much. Folks before me have said so many of the wonderful things jenny has done executiv and i wo voice support for julia ledbe ledbetter and julie who has been a powerful advocate, particularly for unhoused mothers and young people experiencing homelessness. Julia is amazing and you should seat her. Thank you so much. [ laughter ] is there any other member of the public who wishes to speak . Seeing none, Public Comment is closed. Supervisor walton . I wanted to be the first to say this is the one part of my job that i do not like because we have six qualified candidates that are obviously dedicated and committed to this work. But we can only choose four and so, if we do not make an appointment for you today, i would just say please continue to stay encouraged. Please continue to serve this population and folks who need us in San Francisco, there will be other appointments. There will be other opportunities to serve and i really appreciate everyone who submitted an application and your commitment and your service. Because this work is important. But understand that we do have a difficult task sometimes of having more qualified people than we have seats. Supervisor mar. I just wanted to thank all of the applicants for your willingness to step up to this incredibly Important Role on the committee for our city, our home funding. And thank you for all of the work that all of you have done for so many years. Its truly impressive and inspiring and yeah, i would sort of echo supervisor waltons comments about the challenge of selecting from such great candidates or applicants and specifically, i wanted to encourage ellis chu and Chanelle Jackson to apply for the seats the mayor has to appoint for our committee. And hopefully, you guys will be able to serve through a mayoral appointment. Seat number two, Chanelle Williams and seat four Julie Ledbetter, seat six julie. Thank you for that motion and i would make a different motion but this is an absolutely impossible process. Ive never seen a listing of six more qualifiemore qualified. I think ill just make this easy and second that motion. But i do personally want to work with alison, then, who would be in my motion with the Mayors Office to get appointed because i think we need you both on this body. And so, i will be reaching out today to kanishka who is the staffer in the Mayors Office to see if we can make that happen. Because i believe we need all six of your expertise on this extremely important committee. And so with that, im happy to second that motion, which isnt necessary. If we can take it without objection, that motion passes. Thank you. You want to confirm, miss williams in seat two, Julie Ledbetter to seat four, and to a in seat six. Thank you so much. Thank you.

I served for two terms already so im seeking reappointment no thareappointment tothat positio. I bring my knowledge of San Francisco. I grew up here. I have been selling real estate for 30 years and i live next to sunset 4. What i found aboard thats interesting in my last two terms is that the argument about price based on statistics. Property owners would make arguments on what they know about the property and im trying to put the two together and, basically, understand where theyre coming from and theyre understanding of value. I come from a unique position of evaluating prompt properties ev. On the outside of the street, you dont have the parking and someone is blocking access to your property.
