events i continue to be a proud catholic in san francisco. proud to be educated here and part of a praths catholic family. as i mentioned the last few weeks have been the most challenging of my life in the catholic church and know tonight it was a sampling of the people that feel the same way and want to thank everyone for reaching out to my office at a time when pope frances continues to give so many hope inside and outside of the catholic church. these local events have over shadows the instration we are getting from rome. i think these actions really afront the valees we have in san francisco and that we all hold dear. their content and the way they are communicated to the the community and school community and in so many ways our adherence and defense of these values define us as san francisco mpt inclusion over exclusion, tolerance ofern discrimination and commitment for respect for the individual makes us who we are as a city. in our catholic church has the right to insure the catholic faith is taught and up hp held in the schools. but

francisco i san franciscans. it is the 11th consecutive year . the national theme this year is weaving the stories of the women's lives. before we begin i just wanted to share with the board some very exciting news. as you all know san francisco was the first city in the world enacting a local ordinance for all forms of discrimination against best of my women and this was made possible by san francisco bay area woman who attended the 4th u.n. conference on women in bejing in 1995 and believe it or not this is the 20th anniversary of the conference where hillary clinton famously stated women's rights are human rights. mayor lee helped to launch the campaign together with the first lady last march and charge last march challenged 100 other u.s. cities to join in the campaign. we'll be in new york next week for the status of women meetings and you will hear more about this campaign in the lead up to the u.s. conference of mayor's conference that's going to be held in june that mayor lee is hosting. yesterday they ho

francisco versus others cities in the san francisco bay area how much for labor or office space and how much to pay for taxes in terms of what the survey said those are the 3 points the businesses pointed to a difficulty of finding releasing that is probably since this research observations of labor costs were high and the this is sdouj job creation and also difficulties related to business taxes and things came out of survey when we look at the numbers ourselves we found that labor costs are the biggest between alternative locations that a business might stick within the bay area we didn't compare san francisco to metropolitan areas or move to a metropolitan area in texas it maybe cheaper but not all the benefits in terms of the workforce and the quality of life and everything else but if you move to other places in the bay area looking at how san francisco ranged compared to other places in the bay area was important in general san francisco and places are the high cost places and the bay area is the less extensive the office space to a lessor is we have relatively high taxes in s

francisco passed this almost ten years ago, any way, and that san francisco passed this ground breaking, legislation, and you know, what was different about this ordinance is that a lot of the sweat free laws that proceeded it were limited in scope and didn't have have youer much direct account nlt they were statements of principles on avoiding sweat free conditions and limited to the garment industry and the thing about this is that it starts with the garment industry and it also has the opportunity to be expanded to other commodities that the city purchases. and look at, the working conditions, and based on the standards and the city standards, and across the globe and so really, it is, and you should be thought of as a compliment to this sort of construction and regulations that the city has and services and regulation and guidance that the city has in looking at the full scope of purchasing and so, you know, as in any piece of legislation that you know, takes on something, that big and new, there has been a lot of wrinkles and a lot bumps in the process of trying to get regulation a

francisco i'm here to say that the taking over of san francisco by silicon valley is ridiculous there is global buses everywhere there is anywhere from 10 to 16 to 20 thousand tmcs it is a race to the bottom for those people to make a living the cab industry paid san francisco $30 million every year the tmcs give nothing to san francisco it is amazing to me that i and the city farthest the city fathers are allowing this to happen i'll say that the amount of people when the tmcs the first part when they're number one when their this is the most dangerous part of driving their uninsured many cases like you don't pay the insurance you can call any insurance company they don't insure the tmcs and it is incredible the mayor knew that was no insurance the mayor said they allowed this we're going to be people killed and injured in san francisco on the overflow of the drivers trying to make aing i believe the blood is on the hands of the mayor and the city father you have to control the amount of tmcs and cabs in the city this is insage i is an what's golden in san francisco. >> thank you ver

our city san san francisco co-coordinate er and other groups just to say yeah this program should continue cleanpowersf will be launching by early next year and we should wrap in this program to cleanpowersf and what's striking about the presentation on this excellent program is that even though the sfpuc has go solar sf and provides kind of the basics for that the department of the environment has a staff that's going out and doing outreach to help people plan outputting it on their roofs so what's striking about this is it's showing us as the advocates of cleanpowersf and other clean power programs and showing the public that your staff is not just doing energy efficiency what's called behind the meter and what that means for the public is inside of the house for first and on top of the house for small wind and solar that means it's inside of pg&e's meter and they don't get charged for electrons moving over its wires that way and you not only save yourself but you save the system money and lowers the cost of elect electricity and it really points to what we, as advocates are going to ask

san francisco clean party our city san francisco. i really want to speak to all of you but especially to commissioner king i think commissioner king if you have seen me in action over the past decade you know that i'm all about local community benefits and local jobs and local union jobs and prevailing wages. it was the advocates that went to the lafco and insisted that we get the enernex report to happen and it would show what local community benefits would really mean to this community and even though enernex didn't have anything to look at with the behind the meter resources it's showing 4500 jobs in this area that about that are going to be going to people and we, as advocates, now that we know this program is moving forward, the main thing we're communicating about is making sure there's local union jobs and not the community benefits that communities like the ones that are underserved right now that you have been the champion for get these benefits and so what i would ask is that all of you unanimously support sending the commu

san francisco is seeing a dramatic elder boom, an increase with our aging population. especially with the increase of baby-boomers, who are becoming senior-boomers now. and many of them will soon retire next few years. with san francisco's much-needed increase in the minimum wage, many seniors will likely experience an added financial strain because of the additional cost of paying for home care. i'm interested in exploring the possibility of creating a local substance subsidy for seniors and people with disabilitis in the moderate-income bracket who must pay for in-home care out of their own pockets and this subsidy for seniors and persons with disabilitis in the moderate income bracket will help them. many can't qualify for california's in-home supportive services program or medi-cal programs. with the assistance of the budget and legislative analyst's office i hope for all of us to gain a better understanding of the scope of many people who are left in this limbo status of not having access to ihss support and then barely being able to afford home care workers. and
