>> thank you chair weiner. and i was, i know that this was present in plans and programs. and quite frankly i cannot remember the answer. but i was just concerned that we were spending a half a million dollars on a temporary item that would be removed in less than two years from when it was built. so. i was cer yus as to why we are doing this. >> all right, miss chang? >> yeah, i might ask eric to elaborate on my response if i don't get it all. right. but commissioner, peskin thank you for the question, the idea here is to insure that we have a safe and welcoming and receiving area for visitors to the island once the pass has opened and we wanted to be able to have permanent safety feature and there is some of that will be permanent and others of those services like some of the bathrooms and hydrations may be just for a limited period and theyed is to have a safe and a welcoming mra is for visitors and i will have eric add to that. >> yes, definitely. a great question commissioner peskin. and these are, they are temporary in nature, and these are maximum budget amount of 5

month, and i want to say thank you to members of on or our board of supervisors, supervisors campos and weiner are here and they agree with me that funding for more doors to safety is really important for this city. and you know, i think domestic violence and abuse of loved ones most of the time happens behind doors. so we're trying to open more doors. so it doesn't happen. and that is why we have resources to spend to make sure our prosecutors and our da and police department are working together to make sure that we hold individuals accountable. that is, of course, our criminal justice system. but we also know, given the great work that our department, our status of women, our great, wonderful community-based non-profits that are working every day, have seen other doors close, and we have opened them up. because we need a school system that educates our youth. violence is not acceptable. it may be good for certain types of sports to hit a ball, but it's never good to hit another person. that is what education door is opened with this funding. we need our health care centers to have their doo
