now i would like to call up supervisor david compost. >> thank you. good morning chair ronen, supervisor mar. it is good to see so many faces and great to see you both in these roles. thank you very much for this opportunity. i also want to thank stewart milk for being here. and i have to say from the very beginning, that one of the hardest things for me to see in this whole process is how difficult it has been to move this forward. and my apologies in many respects to the harvey milk family because i think what they have seen from the moment that we proposed the naming of the airport up to this point is a real fight on the part of a number of people to keep harvey milk's name out of the airport. i think there are two things that i didn't fully understand when i brought this proposal forward. one, that harvey, by virtual ovirtue of what he stood for went up against the establishment. and unfortunately, a lot of people he went up against are still in power, and high and powerful positions, and they are doing everything they can to keep his name from be

now i'll bring david back up. >> thank you, commissioners. so highlighted in bright yellow is parcel e2 in the pier 70 district on marilyn and 22nd street. this is looking down at the western facade of the building along marilyn street. here's the western facade looking along marilyn street further down. here's a close up view showing the retail showing how the storefron storefron storefronts ungul at a -- you see a lot of building ungulatetion and you see the upper levels and the catwalk system connecting the east side to the west side of the building with the courtyard area. and the 22nd street looking west along the south facade of the building where it meets. >> thank you, david. staff and i ask the port commission asked to close the meeting in the late public defender jeff hagachi and was a fierce defender of the most marginalized people in san francisco. we miss him terribly. our hearts go out to his family and friends and the staff who will have to carry on. that concludes my report. >> i wanted to thank you for the kind words but it o

david? >> no questions. >> i think it's important just starting out. with the infrastructure in this city and the crowding, these smaller vessel, along with water taxis -- we have about eight to ten million people a year that use ferries and water taxis, and we need to take as many people on the roads as we can because it creates chaos on the embarcadero and around the city. i think we've got the third worst crowding in the world as far as infrastructure behind russia and l.a. and new york. what i like is those smaller vessels. they can accommodate than the big funs and are more -- ones and are more efficient and stuff like that. what do you see as far as how many we'll need, and as far as the city, we get about 30 million tourists to our great city a year. what do you think we're going to need to be sustainable? i think we have 30% of our people go to the giants game by ferry. what do you think we're going to need to stay ahead? sk >> yeah. i think that's a great question. i think our focus was on this effort was the next five years, so five years fro

for example, looking here on page 13, i agree with david. i think if we'd been fully implemented, we would have run the margin better. for example, stated we planned to reduce our equity exposure. we see that in 2018 we were down 7.5% in the equity part of this book, and we planned an increase quantity and that was flat. so what did that mean? say we had a -- we were 5% overweight equity relative to target, if we'd replaced that negative 7.5% with zero, returns would have been about 38 basis points better. >> president stansbury: how would you -- how would you rate your satisfaction with where we are, if you had to score yourself? simplistic question, but are you -- would you rate us an a, rate us a b-plus, how would you grade us? >> probably b to b +, but i'm a pretty firm grader. take that into consideration. in terms of the program, i would give us an a. we've absolutely delivered on all the expectations we've set there. we utilized the strategic relationship to the fullest extent possible in order to get to this point in the program, and

jay lang, amy, patrick, joy, david, brad, jack, mark, carolyn. and supervisor -- or vice chair stefani has a quick question. >> supervisor stefani: thank you, through the chair, commander lozar, can i ask you a quick question about incident commander and what that actually means? >> when we put hsoc together about a year ago, we thought how can we put together a department that's organized and have an emergency management struck that you are that's -- structure that's used nationally. we gave everyone roles and the police department was really instrumental in putting the structure together. it was thought commander lozar, incident commander, this person can be ops chief, someone else can do admin finance, that sort of things. in terms of keeping it organized and on track, it doesn't mean in the field, the police are leading this, it means in the command center, we're organized. d.e.m. has contributed so much to this process. there's a staff person that's now the manager that keeps us on track for the meetings and helps us stay organized. we found

so we talked to -- we talked to david pang. i -- i have an e-mail from him where he actually answers my e-mail interpreting ego-5, and he says very clearly, ego-five is limited application. it's for -- it's for preexisting buildings. it says the risk shall not be further increases by proposing an inenclosure of a neighboring passage into the right-of-way. he's requiring them to create an open court easement, not realizing that he actually approved the permit for an enclosed egress because they hid from him that there was an easement issue. so this came to our attention on february 14. the deadline for this appeal, february 14, we received an e-mail from sufthe in-house lar from sia consulting. mr. duffy is here and will know this is extremely improbable that david pang would have thought that there was a recorded easement in place without having required to see it, so this following week, i followed up on this e-mail and i spoke with david pang myself. i confirmed that this is just untrue. he -- he would not just assume that th

a year later, he and david opened the noe location and brought on a partner. so in addition to the cuisine of la mediterranee, he also had the idea that there would be a brite spot in community -- bright spot in the community, so supporting arts in the community has been one of the projects of the restaurant since then. we went through the 80's aids crisis with our restaurant donating to the shawntee group, as well as patrons that were ill at that time. since then, we take part in the sf film fest since 1982, continues to support public elementary schools such as clarendon, sherman. we try to host monthly dine-in fundraisers for the public schools, so we believe in giving back to our community. many people have been eating there since they were kids, and then, they bring their kids, and everybody brings hummus. >> thank you. >> thank you very much. okay. it's an honor. >> next speaker, please. >> hi. i am martin rapelski, the owner and operator of the make out room. i'm slightly under prepared for speaking, but i just have a couple of questions for commissione

i see our great leader in sacramento, assembly member david chui. thank you also for joining us. [applause] >> and behalf of the city and county of san francisco -- oh, i also see daddy warbucks, jose shapiro, our treasurer. [applause] >> as we as a countless nobody of our elected officials, many of our department heads, people who are clearly here to honor the folks who do such amazing work for the city and county of san francisco. so many great people here tonight for one purpose, and that is to celebrate some incredible individuals. welcome to the 39th annual spur good government awards. [applause] [cheering] >> so i've had the pleasure of serving on commissions, working for the city, serving on the board of supervisors, being around in various capacities, including being an intern in the mayor's office of neighborhood services. and i know that in those capacities, sometimes the work that you all do, it's a thankless job. and, in fact, sometimes those members of the board of supervisors are yelling at you. well, just know that we appreciate your work and we appreciate everythi

and we were so moved when assembly member david chu spoke personally of his encounter with jeff. david said, he was in a courtroom when this man entered the room and there was an energy about him that was unmistakable. he had to ask someone, "who is that guy." it was jeff adachi. then he added," jeff adachi was a force of nature" of that there's no doubt and all of us that knew jeff felt the same amazement and the incredible energy and purpose, with which he lived. it is said that the greatness of a man can be measured by how much his life has touched the life of others. when a baby is born, amid the joy, only the baby cries. but when one has lived their life well, and truly touched the lives of others, when such a person dies, there will be many tears, for many will cry. the tears that we cry are also our tears of love and jeff has earned those tears. and beyond these walls, i know there are many who are crying their tears of loving tribute to jeff, testimony to the irreplaceable loss of a man we will never stop missing. to his family, i know there are no words to truly ease the

david elliott lewis. 36-year resident of san francisco, 14-year resident of the tenderloin. this block is hurting, and this particular site, 101 hyde, closed in 2016, and it's been -- i hate to use the word blighted, but yes, blighted with homeless encampments, open-air drug dealing. but this -- the solution of long-term affordable housing is still seven to ten years away. if you don't approve this lease, the neighborhood will continue to suffer. there's so many good things as you've heard that will come from this lease, helping immigrant mother entrepreneurs building their business, but it'll just help the block, it'll help the community. please, approve this lease. the 6.5 years that la cocina is asking for is needed to help payback the 4.5 or $4.6 million investment they're making to building the kitchen facilities and food kiosks. they need this time to make the money work. we have people from the collaborative, part of tenderloin housing clinic in line, if you could raise your hands, supporting the project. see all those people? there's a number of people from the commu

. >> president stansbury: david, can i pause you right there? >> sure. >> president stansbury: all right, i got out of order. i'm ready, i'm sorry. please continue. >> okay to continue on page 5? >> president stansbury: please, please, i'm sorry. >> with respect to the program capital mix, page 5 provides an indication of where we are today and what we are tracking toward with our pipeline of investment activities in a direct part of our program. we anticipate that by the end of 2019, more than half of the capital in our program will be comprised of direct investments sourced by staff and approved by the board. by the end of 2020, we expect this to grow to 65%, the growth of which will be funded by reducing the size of the ban portfolio. so i provided an evaluation here on the evolution of the program. now i'd like to speak to some key performance metrics, so if we could move on to page 6. here we provide investment returns over various time periods, again, some benchmarks. the most relevant is which is 9 fund-to-fund index. even though this is

i also have lisa and david from d.p.m d.p.h. to assist me with this item. i'm here on behalf of d.p.h., seeking a positive recommendation for a new five-year lease with one five-year option at 729 729 filbert. the office space coiforts consis of 11,06067 square feet. it is being used as a multi-lingual outpatient. the clientele is mostly elderly immigrants. this use would continue under the new lease. the city has operated in this location since 1993. this lease replaces an eight-year agreement that is currently on month to month hold-over at less than fair market value. getting to supervisor mandelman's question about hole-over, in this particular case, again, hold-over has been to the benefit of the city because it basically extended what was in essence a below market rental rate for an additional period of time. the benefits of this lease is for the community services that are going to be provided. the building is well-suited for its current use, and again, it lim mateeliminates or defense te need for a new f.f.e. and know location cost. however, the spa

next speaker, please. >> good afternoon, commissioners my name is david bancroft. i'm a long-time resident of san francisco, as you can see. thanks to the staff for their report. one hard request, not hard to do, but made very strongly. i would like to see, and i understand it may be the case, that you are developing 3-d models of what the height and density of how configurations will materialize. think that's the only way to come to terms with a lot of this. i had the feeling looking at your charts i was walk around with a plug you never stuck in the socket. the interface of legislation take the height limits considerably higher than 55 feet. in fact the common wisdom as i read through all the comments on the internet is 80, 85 feet. can't miss that. so i would like to see that done in 3-d. second thing i want to say is i'm mystified by sb50. i mean, really mystified. we have, as i understand it in this city, 58,000 housing units approved, fully approved ready to go. the problem is there's a cost gap. instead of trying to meet the cost gap, sb50 tries to impose a

good afternoon, i'm david emmanuel. i live in glen park, about a block away from the randall street proposal. my experience is a lot like my neighbors. i had no idea this was being proposed until a notice came out. it was a technical notice, and it was very difficult to even understand the footprint. the director who offered the idea of striping the area, that would be extremely helpful. even if just done on the sidewalk. during the last six months of the outreach, i think it has been very lacking in the fact it was very difficult to find out the specific criteria that was being used to select sites. m.t.a. did not share any kind of traffic or safety studies that were conducted at this location. and they didn't justify during their outreach meetings why they rejected alternatives and what we thought were very viable nearby sites. i support bike share. i think the randall street is a bad and unsafe location. i think there are locations several hundred feet away that will be viable. i think at these outreach meetings, the

nick chandler, joanna lopez, david sewell, and saul hidalgo. >> my name's nick chandler, and i'm the counselor for horace mann. this is the first time i can honestly say that i've been able to partner with our organizations to address the housing needs that our students have. you know that kids that sleep in a car do not show up ready to take part in classes. these basic needs, the barriers to learning are at the center of our immediate work. we identify a community school, and that means partnering to address the basic needs of all of our families, so we launched one this year, opened one our jails to house families facing this imminent need. what we've seen is we started out with 60 families that were housing insecure. we made contact and secured all of of those families. we partners with those families and through this pilot which cost zero sfusd dollars, through this pilot, with you look at each of those 26 families options. what are they eligible for, what paperwork is missing, what do they need to do to get access to housing, single-family voucher is, alternatives to what we ha

. >> david and kevin, thank you so much for this presentation. i think it's great that you guys are actually studying this, and hopefully some type of implementation will happen soon. i think you said the earlier it could happen would be within five years maybe? >> it's all about whether we can find the money, but our idea that it would be a year's time before we could have the first vessels out there, and as long as we can identify some funding. >> and that's for the vessel, but as far as the new swipe, like hunters point. >> right. i think that's more of a five-year timetable just in terms of permitting, construction. i wish things occurred faster than five years. >> i know. because of all the development going on in the southeast portion of the city, i hope there's some type of ferry service sooner rather than later. i know that commissioner woo ho is very upset she missed this issue because she is passionate about this type of presentations. hopefully funding will be available because it's much needed with all of the transportation issues tha

i'm david with curry senior center. i want to ask the state so i pass the bar and go in it to study many times. just a couple things about curry senior center. richard gave a great overview but we see 300 seniors a day everyday of the year. our doctors and nurses make home visits. a lot of people can't get out and don't have people to get them out. we're not just serving ourselves, we're serving the neighborhood. we're involved in four different safety programs in and around the neighborhood. lastly, we get involved with a hi-tech groups on market street. a group comes by and does a virtual reality sending our seniors to paris and skiing down some hills. they also take our seniors and put them on a try saw down market street to the ferry building and then lastly, we also have a brand new program with the city trying to get internet in the home for the seniors. i appreciate you considering our work today. thank you. >> thank you. next speaker, please. >> good afternoon. thank you very much for listening to us. my david.

david shoe had a bill that -- which continues to move things forward. so we've got a lot of partners and i just really hammering home as innovative as a region that we are, and i know there was a hearing earlier today about homeless as well and a lot of conversations the last couple of days about trying to figure out different ways to be creative. one of the major barriers obviously to this is money. while we've got so much in the region, we're just not really utilizing it as well as we could. so whenever we can continue to find opportunities to work with all of our different stakeholders and get the money to create this housing, i think that really would be fantastic. speaking to a personal experience, i'm sure i mentioned it before, i live not too far from the mcdonald's site and right now an empty parking lot sitting with a fence all the way around it. we were told very early on there's no money to build a navigation shelter. i with a couple of other neighbors -- density was one of the things that we were looking forward to, educating our neighbors o

our sheriff, hennessy, and i believe we have representatives from our assembly member david chu and phil singh's office, as well. i want to thank the consul general for being here from china. and, of course, the many, many commissioners, the department heads, and representatives who are here with us today, as well. you know, i think that many of us know that our lunar new year is a very celebratory event, but we all know that we are also missing a wonderful asian-pacific islander, leader, who passed away this weekend, and i want to take a moment just to recognize, of course, our public defender, jeff, who is someone who fought tirelessly for those who didn't have a voice, so please join me in just a moment of silence. thank you. and so now, one woman who i've seen at every single chinese new year event that there possibly could be and lunar new year event there possibly could be in san francisco, she probably works harder than anybody i've seen, she's in this valley, she's in the bay view, sunset, irving, chinatown, i want us to have a warm and big welcome to the 45th mayor of san franci
