Runs out of tokens . Well, i think in this report it just referred to United Council not having tokens on site. The other shelters do have tokens on site and theyre given out monthly at the shelter directors meeting so it was just one reference in this report six months ago that United Council didnt have tokens. And giving the tokens at the beginning or once a month but by the end of that month do they still have adequate tokens . Yes, they have them available or if they need more they can always get more. Can i ask the committee to do a survey of these specifically about tokens . I would feel better about it if they have adequate tokens. And would you be able to come back to us or give a report in three months . [inaudible] okay. Thank you very much. Those were my questions. Okay. Supervisor campos. Yes. Thank you. Happy new year to you. Just going to a couple of points we d ....
So i would encourage you to maybe discuss the issue further with the committee and maybe if theres a request for Additional Resources i know that i certainly would like to know that and see if theres a way to find that. My manager staff meet monthly with the Shelter Monitoring Committee, exact staff, so i am quite sure that will be first and foremost on their agenda to explore it a little more. Great. Thank you very much. I appreciate it and one thing they would say is that i think the staffing issue is really important because these reports are six months were talking about a prior six month period and i know that for a lot of us with the weather the way it is the conditions in the shelters is something that we all worry about so i think having the additional person will be helpful. Thank you. Can i make a few comments on what i said . Yes please. I want ....
The creative director on the stickers. Thank you, to all coming out. And im very happy to support this. Thank you, supervisor farrell. Again, i just wanted to thank everybody, as everyone has already said. While our office was really happy to carry this through to implementation and bring it to the full board this legislation really came through the input of residents and advocates. You had worked on this issue for years before i had even come into the office and im happy to bring this forward to the full board. I think they are some really good fixes within our Public Health code that will provide us more information and the data that we need to effectively utilize the resources that we do have to combat bed bug infestation in the city. Not just by complaints, but by pest control operator abatement will help us understand the scope of this throughout the city of San Francisco. ....
To San Francisco anymore. Keep up the good work on these bed bugs. They are a really serious threat to the entire city. Thank you. Thank you. Is there any other Public Comment . Seeing none, Public Comment is now closed. [ gavel ] supervisor david campos . Thank you very much, madame chair. And i want to thank all of the members of public who have come out to speak on this item. I also want to note that we have in the audience former supervisor tony hall and its good to welcome a former member of this body here. I will keep my comments very brief, because i think that everything that has been said, that needs to be said about this matter has been said by the tenants themselves. And i especially wanted to thank the tenants and the residents of not just sro hotels, but different units in the city that have come forward to s ....
The bed bugs, they dont care. They just want to feed. Thank you. [ applause ] next speaker. Hi. My name is kathy galvez, i wanted to show people what it looks like to be attacked by bed bugs. See all of these marks here on my arm . Let me see if i can turn it around so you can see. Let me see where the camera is . We can see it. Thank you. And i got them on my legs, my arms, my back and they hit me on my head. And i didnt know what to do so i notified management. They sent an email to the owners of and nothing has happened exempt i have been harassed since friday of last week. My slipping through the cracks part, your legislation is aimed at other than where i am living. I have been evicted from my house for 40 years and im living at travel lodge hotel, a choice place. So you are not going to tourist places, but people that live there, if they stay in San Francisco, they end up going to other places and if they have bed bugs in the ....
