Provoked you to support this . There were some that refused to testify and during this investigation this board issued were the last board issued i believe this first subpoena i believe in 24 425 years and i think that mme. City clerk knows the exact amount of years with that but i think that we need to get to the bottom of this. This is not to be used lightly but i think particularly in a case of manifested Public Safety they need to understand the gravityand they need to understand that telling the truth and the whole truth is very, very important and they need to understand this Public Safety issue and get to the bottom of it. This is not something that i expect the committee or the full board to use this with any regularity but there is another individual coming before the committee another peer that i feel will be very helpful to our investigations to have that individual testify personally to an oath and i think it is an important tool to use in our tool chest for the board for many years. Thank you supervisor peskin. Supervisor cohen. Thank you supervisor peskin for your explanation on that. I just want to make sure that im clear. The rules of wood this have applied to the gao committee. Supervisor peskin. Thank you mme. Pres. To supervisor cohen through the president , this can be through any committee originally this was through the j a gao committee and this would be to testify at they are minimum capacity p. Thank you supervisor cohen. Thank you supervisor peskin. I just want to say that there are people in the audience that are not aware of this so im asking these questions so they can have answers that they have asked. So what i would like to ask now is will this motion passed through the committee . Supervisor cohen i expect this will be a motion passed through the committee and this would be what we are issuing. Thank you. What are the penalties that could be applied for not testifying honestly under oath . This could have penalties with both through the committee and civil and criminal but that would be hand all the on an individual case going forth. Cases like the millennium are very important and very troubling. I agree that the case with the millennium is troubling. I think what im trying to figure out with my balance and my point is do we create a policy that is just targeting one particular issue the millennium or is this a policy that could conceivably be used for forever on multiple topics that come through the gao or on multiple issues through the board of supervisors. Correct me if im wrong but i feel this is created to target the people that are associated with the Millennium Tower . Through the president , supervisor cohen that was initially that impotence for this and over the years we have exercised this power and yes the millennium issue was the impetus for this but i think that there will be future committees that will want to reveal that for themselves. Is there are an existing processfor taking an oath under testiony. There is a safeguard for this. It has to be a vote by the entire board or the entire committee. So that is a safeguard as well. One person cannot do this. Thank you through mme. President to supervisor peskin. And i just have one other question for the City Attorney. Can someone be motion to testify administer an oath in order for the vote to be taken and good evening supervisors the board through an oath could administer this through the committee. Thank you mme. City chair i appreciate the time you give me and thank you gentlemen for answering my questions. Thank you supervisor cohen. Supervisor sheehy. California penal code 118 says that perjury is a felony in California Law and i just dont feel comfortable through this body putting people at such an onerous risk through this. We have one specific situation and its never good to make a policy based on one situation and changing an entire policy. Especially essentially when we are ready have a way to do this. And, i just think that Investigatory Power should be used lightly and deliberately and especially when the penalty is state prison. And, when you say this is rarely used, that is not a good defense in my mind because, along exist and usually when it is rarely used it is rarely used disproportionately on people at do not have power. Because people that have power do not usually suffer the consequences of these sort of things. And we support Civil Liberties but what we are doing is making it relatively easy for two members of this body, it could be now, could be in the future, could be some point way down the road when the people who are under the gun or in the barrel, may not be people that we think have the same opinion of that we do with Millennium Towers. The only thing that i would note is there is an incredible amount of litigation going on about Millennium Towers. Its good for us to do i guess, understand whats going on so it doesnt happen again but essentially this has been collected under oath under several venues. So i guess with my colleagues i dont trust myself and one other colleague or two other colleagues to impose this. I think the members of the public should oppose this. We all want to do this and we think this is okay we do this already. Thank you supervisor sheehy. Supervisor peskin. Thank you mme. Pres. I would like to say that under our legislative government this would be under any number of realms especially the investigative case any number of realms people should testify truthfully. I cannot abide a notion where somebody who i mean, proving perjury is very difficult. Seldomly ever done by this District Attorney or any District Attorney that proceeded our District Attorney but the message that one ought not lie in the case of great gravity to this board with its unlimited powers of inquiry i think are manifestly important and with that lets see where the votes go. Okay, seeing no other names on the roster, this does require an eight vote threshold since it is a change of board rules. Mme. City clerk can you please call the roll.

Item 27 is aboard of state and Community Corrections pursuant to California State Senate bill 844 2016 for 70,000,000 for a proposed project to renovate county jail no. 2; outlining the matching cash contribution of 8,200,000 and additional funds of 3,800,000. Colleagues seeing no names on the roster, can we take this item same house, same call . Without objection the resolution is adopted unanimously. One second, madam city clerk, do i have to resend that vote . You did not count down. Good afternoon supervisors. I just wanted to hear a little bit more. I thought we needed to renovate jill number two this is critical and i fully understand that. My concern is that sort of the plans that we have before us right now as to where inmates will be transferred when these renovations take place include a possibility that they will be transferred to county jail number three. And, i do not believe that we should reopen that jail under any circumstances. And so, i wanted to hear a little bit more from you about sort of, what are some alternative options during the renovation of county jail number two if we did not get this grant and accepted it . Sheriff can you please identify yourself. Im sorry, vicki hennessey. Their art a few things with this item in that water. We did look at renovating this jail and moving these people down without exception but there will be a cost for these people to do it this way. That means they will go in and come out there will be different trades going and do that work but it will be extremely, extremely expensive and also, there was a quality of life for the inmates that would not be appropriate. The second item would be moving out jail number three and this can be done quickly so people could still be in the city and get the services they need and have access to attorneys and things like that because were talking mostly about pretrial people. The third recommendation is to look at moving people to another county. To another county jail that might have room. And, the thing to think about at least for this purposes of this hearings i think is to approve the resolution so we can apply. I think that there will be things we need to improve as we go forward but i think that we need to really think about them. Okay i have a question for deputy City Attorney, mr. John gibner. Deputy City Attorney john gibner. The sheriff this will need to be approved i guess i need to ask the sheriff whether if this is accepted whether or not any work will be done on this at this point or not. I am looking forward to working with you and the community on strategy so that we can decrease our general population but i just wanted to put on the record that that is not an option that i am open to entertaining if and when this, you know, project comes before us again, through acceptance. We are talking 2019th we have to plan for this at a time if this were to occur and then, you know, the strategies that we envision through this project we will have available to us. Thank you supervisor. Supervisor kim. Thank you. This is not necessarily a question for staff but i do want to express my concern of what the city will incur regarding debt. What im concerned with is if this is something that the city can pay out without increasing their debt and i also am concerned and less they can match the funds if i do not know if i can support this especially with the additional costs i dont know if we can pay that out right but i do share the concerns that supervisor rohan brought forth with what the sheriff said these renovations would look like with this particular her j all. Thank you. And im glad to see is on the roster as someone who is intimately involved with this project. I appreciate the work of the sheriff as well as Robert Garcia and roma guy and many of the advocates that are working to find a solution to do exactly what we need to do and that is to close this without the alternative of owning the jail to lock people up and that is not the goal with this gel project. I do appreciate supervisor because i do want you to understand that if you do accept this you have to understand what work will be required with this jail what we will need to do throughout our city. I said this before in the past and unsupported applications for grants that you know, its a yes today to apply but that may not be the same answer in the future of their other issues that are anticipated as a result of receiving the grant. We thank you for your efforts in trying to revitalize what we know is a challenging place to do so. And with that, on the item mme. Clerk, can you please call the roll. [roll call vote] there are 11 ayes. The resolution is adopted unanimously [gavel] and with that mme. City clerk, can you please call the roll all for introductions. Item 28 isroll call for introduction of ordinances, resolutions, charter amendments, requests for hearings, letters of inquiry, letters of request to the City Attorney and Board Members reports on their regional body activities. When i read this and initially it really upset me because i have a fouryearold daughter who will be starting kindergarten and this really upset me because one classroom has already had 13 teachers this year. A classroom that has had 13 teachers in one year, those children are not getting quality education and this is entirely unacceptable. The urgency for Affordable Housing for teachers and paraprofessionals is absolutely essential. I am here to ask the board of education, and the Mayors Office of housing, and the teachers union, to come to the Public SafetyNeighborhood Services committee. I will work with my colleagues in the afternoon and friends and family can be there to engage in this conversation and learn what the plan is and the urgency to a build Affordable Housing i am truly worried that when my child gets into Public School which is next year that she will not be provided an acceptable education andwe are looking forward to working on this issue together. Thank you supervisor ronan. Supervisorsafai. I will be very brief this brings forth that need for Workforce Housing and i just want to say that i want to bring this meeting together to bring together the board of education and the Mayors Committee on housing and that we can address this emergency situation that we are in. When teachers can not except Job Opportunities offered to them around 55,000 or 60,000 per year because theres not Affordable Housing, we really need to make this an issue that we address. So i think you supervisor ronan im glad youre on the same page as me. Thank you supervisor safai. Supervisor sheehy. Thank you for bringing this issue up. We have a teacher that had to move from our neighborhood last year and it is really a concerning issue. We have legalize the Recreational Use of cannabis in california in january 2018 and those involved in adult use of cannabis they must receive state license and this will give local organizations to generate these processes. So this is only nine months away and i think we need to get these things in place in San Francisco and i think we need to be ready. Im asking that legislation be drafted so that we have a single point of contact for cannabis in San Francisco to make sure that we have good quality operators and that we are preserving and protecting the quality of her neighborhoods and that there will be accountability. Thank you supervisor sheehy. Supervisor tang. Today i am introducing a resolution and this is assuring that parents have affordable Childcare Options for them. And we are seeking that families often have to improve their income in various phases and they often get kicked out of state support. These word update when you can enter an accident and also some of the interim reporting through that 12 month period. So really were trying to offer stability for parents that may need to either approve a job that may pay more were glad were addressing that. And also supervisor sheehy and supervisor peskin and i the am excitedto see us housing in San Francisco. Also, it is important that all of the decisions are vetted through the departments full leah and accurately through the citys department. With that, i submit. Thank you supervisor tang. Supervisor yee. I would also like to sponsor this motion as well. Thank you. I will add you as a cosponsor. Supervisor yee. When this discussion started years ago from new york from a vision zero conference this was probably the best we had in regard to reducing collisions that cause fatalities or deep injuries. I mean, when you look at it, when youlook at vehicle collisions, one factor looking at the severity of injury or chance of survival is speed. If a pedestrian is hit by a car traveling 20 mph, there is a 5 chance that the pedestrian will be killed. But if the driver is driving 40 mph and hits a pedestrian, there is an 85 chance they will be killed. 35 individuals were killed on our streets. 35 as a senior, a pedestrian, and a Third Generation san franciscan and a survival of a near fatal crash myself, this is unacceptable. Last week when this was announced we heard this from the San Francisco
